If you will all take this as a moment of reflection or join us in the community invocation. Thank you. Hanke: Mr. Mayor, City Council Members, thanks for the opportunity to pray for you and I will be doing it right now and throughout the month. Let's pray. Father God, we thank you for the opportunity to be gathered. We thank you for the gift of the technology that allows the business of the city to continue even in the midst of a global pandemic. God, we pray for the health and welfare of the City of Meridian. Yeah, we know that a city is only as strong as the quality of its citizens and so, God, we pray for a sense of peace and hope among the people of the city and, God, that that would be representative among the City Council Members. I thank you for their willingness to serve and answer the call to lead and pray, God, that you would provide them wisdom, prudence, hope. That, God, you would continue to protect the peace and tranquility of this city and, God, we even ask Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 36 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 2of13 that you might instill a sense of peace across our nation, God, we just watch civil unrest take hold and pray that you might protect us from that here, that we might seek a sense of unity and justice together for the good of all citizens in Meridian. We ask these things, Father, for your glory and our good, through your Son Jesus Christ, amen. Thank you, Mayor. Item 4: Adoption of Agenda Simison: Appreciate it. Item No. 4, adoption of -- Bernt: Mayor, are we good? I didn't hear what you said. Simison: Item No. 4, adoption of the agenda. Bernt: Okay. That's what I was waiting for. We are going to change up the agenda a little bit. We had an Executive Session that we weren't able to finish and so we are going to add Item 8, Executive Session for Idaho Code 74-206(d) as Item No. 8. Other than that, I move that we adopt the agenda as amended. Hoaglun: Second the motion, Mr. Mayor. Simison: I have a motion and a second to adopt the agenda as amended. Is there any discussion on the motion? If not, all those in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay. The ayes have it. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. Item 5: Future Meeting Topics Simison: Madam or Mr. Clerk, did we have anybody signed up under five? Item 5. Weatherly: Mr. Mayor, we did not. Item 6: Action Items A. Resolution No. 20-2213: A Resolution Appointing Walter Steed to Seat 2 of the Meridian Transportation Commission Simison: Okay. So, with that we will move into Item 6-A, Resolution No. 2213 appointing Walter Steed to Seat 2 of the Meridian Transportation Commission. So, Council, I had the opportunity to sit down with Mr. Steed, along with our Chair of the Transportation Commission. We had extremely qualified candidates once again for this commission and much like the last one, though, when we have lost a citizen -- a more general citizen, that's what the -- the role that Mr. Steed really kind of comes in, but he comes in with a wealth of knowledge and experience as a former city council member up north where he has spent time on transportation commission related issues up there. So, he is very Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 37 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 3of13 familiar with the role of the transportation commission, as well as -- as being an advisory or recommending group to city council. I think the one thing that really was a great addition to his consideration, our Transportation Commission has been looking to get more involved in issues. One of the things they have even talked about doing is should they comment on land use applications. That is something that the transportation commission that Mr. Steed worked on up north did, so he has -- at least has some experience that he could bring to that conversation, if that's the direction the Transportation Commission would like to go in the future. So, with that I heartily recommend him to the seat on the Transportation Commission and would stand for any questions. Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: No question, just a comment. I think we all received a copy of a letter from Mr. Steed. Appreciate him sending that along to us. And true to his character, he actually attended yesterday's Transportation Commission and is quickly getting up to speed and getting quickly right to work and at least yesterday in a voluntary capacity pending tonight's decision. But with that I would move that we would approve Resolution No. 20- 2213, resolution appointing Walter Steed -- Steed, excuse me, to Seat 2 of the Meridian Transportation Commission. Hoaglun: Second, Mr. Mayor. Simison: I have a motion and a second to approve Resolution No. 22-2013. Is there any discussion on the motion? If not, all those in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay. The ayes have it. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. B. Second Reading of Ordinance 20-1881: An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Meridian, Approving the First Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Urban Renewal Project Plan, Which First Amendment Seeks to Deannex Certain Parcels From the Existing Meridian Revitalization Project Area; Which First Amendment Amends a Plan That Includes a Revenue Allocation Financing Provision; Authorizing the City Clerk to Transmit a Copy of This Ordinance and Other Required Information to the County, Affected Taxing Entities, and State Officials; Approving the Summary of the Ordinance; and Providing an Effective Date Simison: Item 6-B is a second reading of Ordinance No. 20-1881 and I will turn this over to -- sorry, Mr. Nary, I'm going to ask for your help and on what -- how this is supposed to proceed. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 38 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 4 of 13 Nary: Yes, thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council. So, my -- excuse me. Mr. Arial from Community Development, I believe will start off where we are and, then, there are people that are present to talk about the urban renewal district. So, before you, Council, is the second reading of the ordinance both to remove a section from the existing urban renewal district and, then, to create a new urban renewal district. It has been through the legal process, through the Planning and Zoning Commission for comment. There is a report that's been prepared as required by statute on the viability of the district and the necessity and the need for it. We have -- Mr. Kushlan has been working on this with the property owners, as well as the city, as well as MDC on this. So, we have followed all the legal steps necessary to do this separation and creation of a new district and, again, tonight is second reading. If there are changes to be made to the ordinance after tonight's discussion we can make those changes prior to third reading scheduled for next week. So, that's kind of where we are. I think Mr. Arial wants to kick off the presentation part of the district. Simison: Mr. Nary, do we need to have the clerk -- is there any reading that needs to occur for Items B and C or do we go directly into Item D? Nary: We do not need to read them, unless -- we can read them by title and, then, we can go to Item D. Simison: Okay. Well, with that I would ask the clerk to please read Item 6-B and 6-C by title. Weatherly: Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Item 6-B is the second reading of Ordinance 20- 1881, an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Meridian approving the First Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Urban Renewal Project Plan, which first amendment seeks to deannex certain parcels from the existing Meridian Revitalization Project Area; which first amendment amends a plan that includes a revenue allocation financing provision; authorizing the city clerk to transmit a copy of this ordinance and other required information to the county, affected taxing entities, and state officials; approving the summary of the ordinance; and providing an effective date. C. Second Reading of Ordinance 20-1882: An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Meridian, Approving the Urban Renewal Plan for the Union District Urban Renewal Project, Which Plan Includes Revenue Allocation Financing Provisions; Authorizing the City Clerk to Transmit a Copy of This Ordinance and Other Required Information to the County, Affected Taxing Entities, and State Officials; Approving the Summary of the Ordinance; and Providing an Effective Date Weatherly: Item 6-C is a second reading of Ordinance 20-1882, an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Meridian, approving the Urban Renewal Plan for the Union District Urban Renewal Project, which plan includes revenue allocation financing provisions; authorizing the City Clerk to transmit a copy of this Ordinance and other required Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 39 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 5of13 information to the county, affected taxing entities, and state officials; approving the summary of the ordinance; and providing an effective date. D. Combined Public Hearing for Ordinance 20-1881: Deannexation Plan Amendment) - First Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan and Ordinance 20-1882: Union District Plan Simison: Thank you very much and with that we will move into Item 6-D. I will turn this over to Mr. Arial. Arial: Mr. Mayor, Members of Council, really good to be with you this evening and to be taking this next step in the -- the redevelopment of our downtown. As many of you know -- and I'm sure if you have read from the memo and documentation you know this is a significant step in that direction. You know there has been a lot of work stemming back, you know, years, but, you know, even in current history with the RFP process that was approved by the past Council and the MDC board to move forward with an RFP for, you know, a downtown revitalization project, that response to that RFP stipulated the need for basically the creation of this new district and also there is the deannexation of-- from the old district, so that's kind of the reason you have two resolutions before you and we are really looking forward to the discussion from you all or any comment and, then, also, you know, hearing from the public as well. That, then if there are, you know, any changes to the plan or any modifications we can turn that around prior to the third reading next week. So, just really looking forward to the discussion. I think, hopefully, everyone has received the information and answered any questions that you may have, but open to any of that dialogue now. Just one point of clarification. The reason for the deannexation, of course, is that this is in the existing downtown urban renewal area and because there is limited time left on that in order for the -- the tax increment financing mechanism to be most effective, we need to deannex these properties and create the new districts, so we have a new time horizon. Again, the sole purpose will, then, be to channel this -- the potential revenues into needed infrastructure and public improvements that the city is looking to accomplish. We do have Mr. Kushlan available if you have technical questions towards the plan. I think it is important to note as well previously presented to you guys the eligibility report from Mr. Kushlan and the -- you know, these properties that are included here certainly meet the criteria for blight and qualification for the creation of an urban renewal district and I think it is important to note the fiscal aspect, that's kind of the -- the tail end of my memo there. Really the properties as they exist have a de minimis value and, therefore, if they were to be removed and sit vacant would have very little, if any, impact to the existing district and the revenue collection, but if they do redevelop and the values go up, there is significant opportunity for revenue capture and, therefore, the --the opportunity to do these projects. With that I will conclude and look forward to the discussion. Simison: Thank you, Cameron. Council, do you have any questions for Mr. Arial at this time? Or Mr. Kushlan. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 40 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 6of13 Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: I was wondering if-- if there is any relevant update on capital market conditions for the bond issuance and confirmation that the City of Meridian at this point doesn't need to guarantee the issuance or if there is any additional information we should know in light of -- I work in the capital markets and I know many of the markets are disrupted, so I thought we would ask for an update. Arial: Mr. Mayor, Council Woman Strader, a great question. Fortunately for these projects, at least as we envision them, there -- there is no financing -- at least capital markets financing associated with them. So, it is kind of in keeping with our Finance Department and past Council's, you know, policy or unwritten policy that the city doesn't borrow. That being said, this is a partnership with MDC and that's the way we would partner with them and envision that moving forward. But to your -- directly to your question, there is quite a bit of upheaval in the markets. It's hard to, you know, get a stable investor base to actually go and -- go to issuance and so, fortunately, again, we are -- we -- we don't need to -- to go to that extent and we look to capture the revenue over time and do our projects via the public-private partnerships with the -- the winners of the RFR So, fortunately for us we are -- we are -- don't need to get into those muddy waters at this time. Strader: Mr. Mayor, follow up. Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: So, just to put a finer point on it -- and that was my impression, too, but just to make sure I fully understand. My first go around I ask a lot of questions, but I might have more. So, this will be a pay-as-you-go type entity in other words. So, as the receipts come in of-- of the taxes that normally would go to the city, in other words, those -- those funds can be used and directed toward the urban renewal, but at no point would MDC or another entity either incur a legal obligation that the city might have to fulfill or perhaps take on a public-private partnership where we have liability to complete a project. Arial: Mr. Mayor, Council Member Strader, so the -- the way that this is -- is proposed to roll forward is the -- the public-private partnership, the developer, is essentially going to front any of the improvements via their own financing and their own development. Then, the -- the generated tax increment as it flows in would be reimbursable to them basically on a pay for performance basis. So, let's say there is, you know, road improvements or utility improvements that need to be done and those would be fronted by the developer and, then, as that increment is generated MDC in this case -- the revenue is actually floated to MDC. MDC would be obligated to -- to reimburse, but, again, that's all based on agreements that would be in place and, again, they would be performance based. Strader: Mr. Mayor, follow up. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 41 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 7of13 Simison: Let me try to get the answer to your question a little bit further. Mr. Nary, if you can confirm. Can MDC obligate the city in the future by their actions to a financial payment of some sort? Nary: So, Mr. Mayor, my camera is not working, but no. So, the city would not ever be under the obligation to pay off the bonds or debts of the original district. Strader: Thank you, Mr. Nary. Simison: Any further questions at this time from -- on this item? Okay. So, Adrienne, I understand we had some people who have signed up to testify? Weatherly: Mr. Mayor, we have one person signed up and that is Bill Truax joining us on the line today. Simison: Okay. I was not prepared with my clock, but I'm getting there. So, Mr. Truax, you will have three minutes to provide comments on this item. If you would state your name and address for the record and I will hit stop when you're done. I see you unmuted yourself, so you're good to go at any point in time, Mr. Truax. Are you there? Council, as we wait for Mr. Truax to hopefully get his audio working, I don't see that we have anyone on -- on the call from MDC at this point in time, at least in -- in the room. Oh, we do have Ms. Squyres there. Truax: Can you hear me? Simison: Yes, we can hear you now. Truax: Okay. For some reason I'm having problems on the audio and visual side, but it sounds like we are good. Bill Truax. Address 999 West Main, Suite 1400, Boise, Idaho. 83702. Thank you all for entertaining the discussion tonight. I didn't really have a whole lot to enter here. I did want to reiterate what has been discussed already and that's that -- that the financing is intended to be carried on the development and -- and that so far the capital markets issues that have been raised are not going to affect this development and I think a lot of that has to do just with the general timing of the execution, as opposed to if we were already underway on trying to raise any financing currently. By the time it comes to market, hopefully, we have got a little bit more clarity and direction. Simison: Okay. Well, thank you very much. Council, any questions for Mr. Truax at this time? Okay. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Thank you. Thank you so much, Mr. Truax. I was wondering if you could give us a feel for your end of things. I mean certainty is important to us. I know you did the whole RFP process and went before the previous Council, but, you know, just it would be Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 42 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 8of13 great to hear--you're not relying on apiece of financing that's not in place to move forward on -- on the project? Truax: No. I mean the general basis of the TIF itself in the new district is -- is going to rely on the eventual development of the property across the street that is going -- well, our timeline is a little bit shorter than we were expecting on the assumption or the purchase of that property, so the timeline seems to be working out in our favor. We are currently working on design development documents to bring to the city. So, we would have the taxable use on the other side of the street to generate the increment. So, those -- those things appear to be going well. It is still frothy out there, but, again, the multi- family space is a good space to be in and you're talking about a development deal. So, you're presumably beyond the -- the implications of COVID, at least in the near term. Strader: Thank you. Simison: Council, any further questions for Mr. Truax at this time? Okay. Thank you very much. Truax: This is a public hearing. If there is anybody else who is on the line who would like to testify on this item, if you're in the waiting room you can raise your hand and the city clerk can move you in for the conversation, or if you are listening through YouTube and you want to come in, you can dial -- come on over and activate into the meeting through your phone. I don't see anybody raising their hand at this time. So, Council, any additional questions or comments that you would like to make or do I have a motion to close the public hearing. Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: I move that we close the public hearing. Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Hoaglun. Hoaglun: Second the motion. Simison: I have a motion and a second to close the combined public hearing on Ordinance 20-1881. Is there any discussion? Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Cavener: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: Thanks, Mr. Mayor. Just from a process standpoint would this, then, close the door for any additional public testimony to be received on these items? Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 43 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 9of13 Simison: I believe it would, yes. Cavener: Mr. Mayor, a follow up. Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: And maybe Bill can -- can chime in and refresh my memory. We are going to - - a decision will likely be rendered on this next week and I guess I'm just curious if we lose the opportunity to take any additional testimony written or verbal over the course of the next seven days and, if so, I would maybe be more supportive of continuing the public hearing for one additional week, should anybody else from the public would testify. Clearly we are not being overwhelmed with testimony tonight. I don't anticipate it, but I just -- with something like this if there is an opportunity to keep the -- the public testimony open and available, I would think that's something we may want to at least discuss. Nary: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Mr. Nary. Nary: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, Councilman Cavener, that's perfectly fine. I think we have enough space to have it -- again even it were to get delayed an additional week I think we would be fine. If there are no comments and there are no requested changes tonight from the Council that you want us to incorporate into the ordinance -- if there were to be something come in between now and next Wednesday -- or Tuesday, we could certainly address that. I think we would be fine. Cavener: Okay. Then, Mr. Mayor, for the benefit of the public, I'm -- I'm supportive of what we have had before us. I appreciate the work that staff and Mr. Kushlan, the consultant, and Ms. Squyres with MDC, the work they have put into this and it has -- it has addressed many of the concerns that I have had. So, my -- my desire to continue the public testimony is not a nefarious one in nature, but just more of a process standpoint to allow -- any opportunity to allow the public to chime in. In support of this great project and this great idea I think it is well worth it. Simison: And so with that does the motion maker and the second would like to revise their motion or would they like to proceed or is there further discussion on the request from Mr. Cavener? Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor, I'm fine with waiting a week. I don't -- I don't think it changes anything. It's a great project and certainly meets the intent of -- of urban renewal redevelopment. We saw the eligibility report, checks all the boxes, and it's -- it's going to be a great thing, but to leave it open for a week to allow people just an opportunity to comment, I'm fine with that, but I will let the maker of the motion -- motion determine that. Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 44 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 10of13 Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: I don't mind either. My only concern would be there -- there is a time frame involved in this process and -- and I wouldn't want to delay this -- this -- this time frame based upon this -- you know, keeping the public hearing open for another week. So, if -- if we can confirm that -- that our -- this timeline would be in place with us keeping the -- this public hearing open for another week, then, I would be more than happy to change my motion, but I would like to confirm -- confirm that before I do. Simison: Mr. Nary. Nary: Mr. -- Mr. Mayor, Ms. Conrad, Meghan on the call, has also been working with the property owners as well as working with them on the urban renewal. We could certainly ask her. I'm asking Mr. Baird right now. I do recall that we had put this -- some wiggle room in there in case there were any issues or concerns that were raised. So, I don't think a week is a problem, but if Meghan has a -- a different opinion of that certainly she could tell us. Simison: Meghan, I see you are unmuting yourself. If you wouldn't mind answering that question, so you're -- I guess the public hearing is technically still open, even though we are in a motion, but we can take additional information. Meghan. Conrad: Thank you, Mr. Mayor and Council Members. Can you hear me? Simison: Now we can barely. If you can speak up. Conrad: Okay. I will -- I will yell. We are on a fairly tight turnaround. There are a number of post ordinance adoption actions that need to occur and we need to publish the ordinance, record, and there is another set of transmittal letters that need to go out and the goal is to really have this wrapped up by July. So, with that in mind I suppose it could be pushed for me. Is the -- is it my understanding that the public hearing is open, perhaps the ordinances would still be considered at the -- for the public meeting next week. Simison: I believe that is the case, yes. Conrad: I -- Mr. Mayor and Council, that in pushing the timeline that would be, of course, best in terms of trying to meet these other deadlines we have, but certainly defer to city attorney and Mayor and Council for that decision. Thank you. Bernt; Mr. Mayor, I'm not sure what she just said. Simison: What I heard is there is a lot of stuff that they got to do, but so long as it -- it does not interfere with next week's third reading ordinance, she was deferring to the attorney on this issue. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 45 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 11 of 13 Nary: So, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council, I did -- I just conferred with Ted and, again, we -- we built this one week cushion in there because of what Meghan just stated on the other -- we still have to publish -- remember, our publishing is a week and a half out, because it's published on a weekly basis, and so that's what the concern is. But if -- if we don't change the ordinance next week we don't have a problem. That was the rationale of why we wanted the hearing tonight is that if there were changes we would make the changes tonight for next week and, then, have that for approval. Again, if your preference is to leave it open for a week on the -- on the off chance someone does want to weigh in and, then, we could at least accept it, that's -- that's fine. Like I said, I think we will be okay. Ted -- Ted thinks we will be okay. We have done this before. We try to build the extra week in for that reason. So, I think we can do that if that's your desire. Bernt: Okay. Do it. Mr. Mayor, I would like to rescind my motion and make a new one, please. Simison: Councilman Bernt. Hoaglun: Second consents with the withdraw. Bernt: I would like to make a motion to continue the public hearing until next week. Hoaglun: Second the motion. Simison: I have a motion and a second to continue the public hearing for Ordinance 20- 1881 and 1882 to June 9th. Is there any discussion on the motion? If not, all those in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay. The ayes have it. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. Item 7: Future Meeting Topics Simison: We are at Item 7, Future Meeting Topics. Any items for future meeting topics? Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: Again, I don't know if a future meeting topic or perhaps maybe just a suggestion for -- as we continue to improve our process. With the packets that we receive on -- on Friday I have been noticing oftentimes some topics don't have really any explanation as to what Council is going to be -- be hearing and I guess maybe just to request that even if there is just a brief paragraph or a couple of sentences, so that we have a good understanding as to what those topics are, it helps me to prepare over the weekend as I'm going through things to have a good understanding about what particular on the topics that we are going to be discussing. On the land use side we have got that dialed down and some of the stuff that we are seeing more and more on our workshops that don't have Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 9,2020— Page 46 of 318 Meridian City Council June 2,2020 Page 12 of 13 a lot of explanation. So, perhaps a conversation between you and the Council President about ways that we may be able to improve that, so that both the Council and the public have an understanding as to what's going to be discussed. Item 8: [Amended on to Agenda] Executive Session per Idaho Code 74- 206(d): To consider records that are exempt from disclosure as provided in Chapter 1, Title 74, Idaho Code Simison: With that Item 8. Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: I move that we go into an Executive Session per Idaho Code 74-206(d). Hoaglun: Second the motion. Bernt: I have a motion and second to go into Executive Session. Clerk will call the roll. Roll call: Bernt, yea; Borton, absent; Cavener, yea; Hoaglun, yea; Strader, yea; Perreault, yea. Simison: All ayes. Motion carries. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSENT. Simison: And just a reminder to the clerk that we will be back to close out this hearing once we have finished with that Executive Session.

(yes/no) • Requires ACHD No Commission Action es/no Fire Service • Distance to Fire This fire station is approximately 1.9 miles from the project.If approved,the Station Fire Department can meet the response time goals. • Fire Response This development is 5:00 minutes(under ideal conditions)from the nearest fire Time station—Fire Station 1. • Resource This development is closest to Fire Station#1.Current reliability is 65%from Reliability this station and does not meet the targeted goal of 80%or greater. • Risk This proposed commercial development has a risk factor of 4,in which current Identification resources would not be adequate to supply service to this propose project.Risk factors include firefighting in multi-story buildings and a large gathering of people in a single location. This entails a greater risk for the occupants as well as first responders.Fire,life safety systems and occupant training are critical for this development.Other hazards may be found once the development is completed. • Accessibility This project does not meet all required access,road widths and turnarounds. The shared drives shall have an address sign at each entrance and the roadways shall be maintained 365 days a year for fire,EMS and police responses.The end of the common drives shall be signed"No Parking Fire Lane"per appendix D of the 2015 IFC.The driveway on the southwest corner of the break between phase 1 and 2 is over 150' long.It needs to be shortened,go all the way around the building,or have a turnaround at the end of it. • Special/resource This proposed project will require an aerial device.The closest truck company needs is 5 minutes travel time(under ideal conditions)to the proposed development, and therefore the Fire Department can meet this need in the required timeframe if a truck company is required.This fire station is approximately 1.9 miles from the project. In the event of a hazmat event,there will need to be mutual aid required for the development. In the event of a structure fire an additional truck company will be required.This will require additional time delays as a second truck company is not available in the city. • Water Supply Water supply for this proposed development requires 2500 gallons per minute for two hours. (Approximate—see appendix B of the 2015 International Fire Code)The fire flow requirements may be less if the building is fully sprinklered. • Other Resources See other FD comments in exhibit VIII below. Police Service • Distance to Police 3 miles Station • Police Response The proposed Andorra Senior Living Complex development application is Time approximately 1.5 miles from the Meridian Police Department.The expected response time to this area in an emergency is about 5 minutes.

STAFF ANALYSIS A. ANNEXATION&ZONING The Applicant requests annexation and zoning of 16.99 acres of land with TN-R zoning district consistent with the MU-N(Mixed Use—Neighborhood) and MDR(Medium-density Residential) Future Land Use Map (FLUM)designations in the Comprehensive Plan. A conceptual site plan and building elevations were submitted for the development showing how the property is planned to develop, included in Section VII. Proposed Use: The Applicant proposes to develop the site with an age restricted(55+)multi-family residential development. Independent living units (76 units)are proposed on the west and north side of the site [i.e. multi- family(single family detach and duplex style single-level units on one parcel)] and a 3-story apartment building is proposed in the southeast corner of the site consisting of 88 units. Several commercial components will be integrated with the apartment building, including but not limited to a spa, salon and a restaurant for residents and the public during events. The Allowed Uses Table in UDC Table 11-2D-2 for the TN-R zoning district lists multi-family developments as a principally permitted use subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27. Compliance with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2D-6 for the TN- R district is required,including but not limited to the maximum building height of 40 feet. Page 6 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 141 of 263 Comprehensive Plan(https://www.meridiancity.org/compplan): This property is designated MU-N(Mixed Use—Neighborhood)(approximately 8 acres) and MDR(approximately 9 acres) on the Future Land Use Map. The purpose of MU-N designation is to assign areas where neighborhood-serving uses and dwellings are seamlessly integrated into the urban fabric. The intent is to avoid predominantly single-use developments by incorporating a variety of uses. Land uses in these areas should be primarily residential with supporting non-residential services.Non-residential uses in these areas tend to be smaller scale and provide goods or services that people typically do not travel far for (approximately one mile)and need regularly. Employment opportunities for those living in the neighborhood are encouraged. Connectivity and access between the non-residential and residential land uses is particularly critical in MU-N areas. Tree-lined,narrow streets are encouraged. Developments are also encouraged to be designed according to the conceptual MU- N plan depicted in Figure 3B. The proposed development meets many of the goals of Mixed-use Neighborhood designation. The MDR designation allows for a mix of dwelling types including townhouses, condominiums, and apartments. Residential gross densities should range from eight to twelve dwelling units per acre. These areas are relatively compact within the context of larger neighborhoods and are typically located around or near mixed use commercial or employment areas to provide convenient access to services and jobs for residents. Developments need to incorporate high quality architectural design and materials and thoughtful site design to ensure quality of place and should also incorporate connectivity with adjacent uses and area pathways, attractive landscaping and a project identity. The proposed land uses and residential densities are consistent with those desired in MU-N and MDR designated areas. Goals,Objectives, &Action Items: Staff finds the following Comprehensive Plan policies to be applicable to this application and apply to the proposed use of this property(staff analysis in italics): 2.01.01M-"Support active-adult or independent senior living development." The proposed development will provide housing options for seniors in close proximity to office, medical and commercial uses developed in the area. 3.02.00—"Maintain, improve, and expand the City's infrastructure to meet existing and growing demands in a timely, orderly, and logical manner." The proposed development is contiguous to the City and urban services can be provided to this development. The applicant will be responsible for the extension of the services to serve the proposed development. 6.01.01H-"Require pedestrian access connectors in all new development to link subdivisions together to promote neighborhood connectivity as part of a community pathway system." Pedestrian internal walkways are proposed throughout the development.A segment of the City's multi-use pathway is also proposed to be extended with the development. 4.05.02C—"Encourage the incorporation of creek corridors as amenities in development design." The submitted concept plan incorporates the creek corridor into the design of the project. 2.02.01 —"Plan for safe,attractive and well maintained neighborhoods that have ample open space and generous amenities that provide varied lifestyle choices." The concept plan as designed depicts 26.6%22.907 common open space. Open space is linked throughout the development with inter-connected walking paths for residents of the community to enjoy. Page 7 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 142 of 263 3.02.01 G—"Establish and maintain levels of service for public facilities and services, including water, sewer,police,transportation, schools,fire and parks." The applicant is proposing to development the site with a senior housing project. Public Works has allocated resources to serve the development, but additional modeling is required. Both Police and Fire have provided comments on the application and they have no major concerns with the proposed development. With the development of the site, a pathway segment will be extended to enhance the City pathway network and the southern stub street(E. Wells Circle) will be extended to the west for future connectivity for the area. The proposed demographics of the development should have limited impact on the area schools. Stafffinds that the proposed development should have a minimal impact on the current LOS for public facilities. In reviewing development applications,the following items will be considered in MU-N areas,per the Comprehensive Plan: ➢ "All developments should have a mix land uses." The proposed development contains a mix of uses as required(i.e.personal service, restaurant and residential). ➢ "Residential uses should comprise a minimum of 40%of the development area at densities ranging from 6 to 12 units/acre." The residential uses comprise more than 40%of the development area for a combined gross density of 9.65 units per acre. ➢ "Non-residential buildings should be proportional to and blend in with adjacent residential buildings." The proposed 3-story apartment building and the single family dwelling units have similar design elements and construction materials for an integrated development.Adequate transition is also being provide along the west boundary between the proposed development and the existing residential developments in the form of single story units. The restaurant is also integrated into the design of the apartment building to provide vertical relieffrom the single family units that are proposed to the north. ➢ "Unless a structure contains a mix of both residential and office, or residential and commercial land uses, a maximum building size should be limited to a 20,000 square-foot building footprint." The largest building proposed on the site is the 3-story apartment building which has a building footprint of 30,000 square feet. The commercial component incorporates a spa, salon and an attached 6,000 sq.ft. restaurant. Staff finds that the proposed structure provides a mix of commercial and residential uses to support the required increase in the building footprint. )0- "Supportive and proportional public and/or quasi-public spaces and places including but not limited to parks,plazas, outdoor gathering areas,open space, libraries, and schools that comprise a minimum of 10% of the development area are required. Outdoor seating areas at restaurants do not count towards this requirement." The proposed development has multiple gathering spaces (26.60162J.8150,4 that may comply with this requirement. ➢ Where the development proposes public and quasi-public uses to support the development above the minimum 5%,the developer may be eligible for additional residential densities and/or an increase to the maximum building footprint." The applicant is extending a portion of the pathway through the development for public benefit and providing open space in excess of UDC standards. Therefore, staff supports the increase in the building footprint as proposed by the applicant. Page 8 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 143 of 263 Zoning: Based on the analysis above, Staff is of the opinion the requested annexation with the TN-R zoning district and proposed development is generally consistent with the MU-N and MDR FLUM designation for this site. The proposed annexation area is contiguous to City annexed property and is within the Area of City Impact Boundary. A legal description and exhibit map for the annexation area is included in Section VII.A. The City may require a development agreement(DA)in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511A. In order to ensure the site develops as proposed with this application, staff recommends a DA as a provision of annexation with the provisions included in Section VIII. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are several existing structures on this site that are required to be removed prior to development of the each subsequent phase. Dimensional Standards (UDC 11-2): The proposed plat and subsequent development is required to comply with the minimum dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2D-6 for the TN-R district. Access(UDC 11-3A-3): Access to this development is proposed from the adjacent local streets (S.Wells St. and E.Wells Circle)in accord with UDC 11-3A-3. For internal connectivity,the applicant is proposing gated private streets and drive aisles. Further, some of the units are proposed to take access from common driveways. The private street standards strictly prohibit common driveways from private streets unless approved through alternative compliance. All private streets within the proposed development should comply with the standards set forth on UDC 11-3F-4; common driveways shall comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3D. The private street application and any subsequent alternative compliance application to these standards should be submitted concurrently with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance application. Pathways(UDC I1-3A-8): There is an existing 10-foot multi-use pathway stubbed at the west boundary constructed with the adjacent Woodbridge Subdivision. The applicant is proposing to extend this segment of the pathway along a portion of the west boundary; turning east and paralleling the north boundary of the Five Mile Creek. Prior to occupancy of the first structure,the applicant should submit and obtain approval of a pedestrian pathway easement from City Council. Further,the applicant should coordinate with the applicable irrigation district and conform to any requirements of the district. The Parks Department is requiring the applicant extend a sidewalk in the northwest corner for interconnectivity. Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-17): The TN-R dimensional standards requires 5-foot wide detached sidewalks to be constructed along all roadways. The submitted concept plan depicts detached sidewalks adjacent to all local and private streets, except for the north/south segment of private street along the west boundary of the 3-story apartment building. This area has an attached sidewalk on the east side of the road and open/covered parking on the west side. Parkways (UDC 11-2 11-3A-1 7): Parkways are required to be constructed and landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3A- 17E. In addition,the TN-R dimensional standards requires the parkways to be a minimum of 8 feet in width. Page 9 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 144 of 263 Landscaping and Qualified Open Space& Site Amenities(UDC 11-3B 11-3G): Because the proposed project is over 5 acres in size, the applicant is required to comply the qualified open space and site amenity standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3 and the open space and amenity standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27 for multi-family developments (see analysis below). Fencing(UDC 11-3A-6, 11-3A-7): All fencing constructed on the site is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A- 7. Because this is annexation, fencing details have not been provided with the application. With the submittal of the CZC application,the applicant should provide details of the fencing proposed for the development to ensure it complies with UDC standards. Existing Easements: There is an existing 10-foot wide public,utility, drainage and irrigation(PUDI) easements that run along the interior and exterior boundary of the three platted lots created with the Magic View Amended plat and an existing City of Meridian sewer easement along a portion of the west boundary and parallels the north boundary of 971 Wells Circle property, also located in the un- named ROW being vacated. The concept plan submitted with the application depicts structures that encroach in the PUDI easement areas. Further,with vacating the un-named ACHD right-of- way(ROW),the applicant will have to prepare the necessary easement documents to create a new sewer easement once the ROW is vacated,per Public Works specifications. Prior to the issuance of a CZC application,the applicant should vacate the 10-foot wide PUDI easements and establish a new easement for the existing sewer line located with the un-named ACHD ROW. The portion of the sewer easement along the west boundary could impact the design of the proposed development. Per Public Works standards, sewer easements located outside of the public ROW are typically improved with a 14-foot wide all weather surface to support maintenance equipment. The final design for this area has not been coordinated with Public Works to determine their access needs. The appheant should eeer-dina4e with the Publie Works prior to the City Geaneil to easiffe this afea ea*be used by fesideffts er-r-eleeated as PaA of pr-ejeet approval. The revised concept plan has oriented the units away from the easement which does not impede Public Works access to maintain the existing sewer main.

Right-of-Way Vacation The applicant is proposing to vacate un-named ACHD right-of-way(ROW) created with Instrument#8122009. This roadway is not needed to provide access for the development. Therefore, staff is supportive of vacating the ROW. However-,per-City Code,the City r,,, nei ^ In addition to vacating the un-named ROW,there is an existing cul-de-sac along the south boundary(E. Wells Circle).As part of this development, staff is requiring the extension of the roadway to the west boundary. The extension of the roadway as requested by staff,requires the applicant may be t:espensible to vacate a portion of the Wells Circle ROW and dedicate additional ROW. With the extension of the ROW there is the petentia that AC14D will r-e"ir-es the appheant to teizmina4e the read",with a temper-ary ttimar-etind tmtil ;t; ex4en oa f,-the-t the west thfough the adjaeent subdivision. The revised concept plan depicts the extension of the roadway and incorporates a temporary turnaround as approved by ACHD. The applicant has also provided the necessary legal description and exhibit map to vacate the additional ROW. This m impaet the design of the plan, speeifieally the loss of units i the landseaping. Staff has een*ymaieated with AC14D staff and they have indieated tha4 they deft4 stippeft the desip as shev.,, by the ^ plieaf*. The applicant should design the project to comply with all ACHD requirements. , the appliea-at should provide a legal deser-iption and exhibit of the peAien of ROW being va prior-to the City Getineil hearing.

The applicant has provided a parking ratio for the overall development. For the single family detached and duplex units,the applicant is proposing to apply the single family parking standards of a single car garage and a parking pad for the 1 and 2 bedroom units(total parking: 148; the apartment complex is based on the nursing care standards of 0.5 stalls per bed(total parking: 10022—5066 covered; 506-uncovered)and the commercial standards are not identified. However,the concept plan does depict a total of 262-guest parking spaces€ff dispersed throughout the development. Based on the UDC standards,the proposed parking is to meet the standards described above. If this was a typical development the applicant would need to provide the following parking requirements: non-residential uses— 13 parking spaces and the multi-family—296 parking stalls with half them required to be covered. The concept plan as proposed does not meet the current parking standards of the UDC (deficient 354-7 parking stalls).

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS(Comprehensive Plan) (Note: This project was submitted prior to the new Comprehensive Plan being adopted; therefore, this project will be reviewed under the previous Plan) The Future Land Use Map(FLUM)contained in the Comprehensive Plan designates approximately 30 acres of this site as Medium Density Residential(MDR) and approximately 22.5 acres as High Density Residential(HDR). The purpose of the MDR designation is to allow small lots for residential purposes within City limits. Uses may include single-family homes at gross densities of 3 to 8 dwelling units per acre. The purpose of the HDR designation is to allow for the development of multi-family homes in areas where urban services are provided. Residential gross densities should exceed 15 dwelling units per acre. Development might include duplexes, apartment buildings,townhouses and other multi-unit structures. A desirable project would consider the placement of parking areas, fences,berms, and other landscaping features to serve as buffers between neighboring uses. Development need to incorporate high quality architectural design and materials and thoughtful site design that incorporate connectivity with adjacent uses and area pathways, attractive landscaping and individual project identity. The following Comprehensive Plan Policies are applicable to this development: • "Support a variety of residential categories (low-, medium-, medium-high and high-density single-family, multi-family, townhouses, duplexes, apartments, condominiums, etc.) for the purpose of providing the City with a range of affordable housing opportunities."(3.07.01E) A mix of medium density single-family detached dwellings and high density multi family apartment dwellings are proposed which will contribute to the variety of housing types and lot Page 5 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda NtmitP — P 2l43'9affffi3 sizes available in the southern part of the City; staff is unaware how "affordable" the units will be. • "Permit new development only where urban services can be reasonably provided at the time of final approval and development is contiguous to the City."(3.01.01F) City services are available and will be extended by the developer to the proposed lots upon development of the site in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. • "Protect existing residential properties from incompatible land use development on adjacent parcels." (3.06.01F) There are no existing residential properties in close proximity to this site. • "Require common area in all subdivisions."(3.07.02F) The proposed plat depicts a total of 8.97 acres (or 17.1%) of qualified open space in accord with the requirements listed in UDCIl-3G-3. • "Develop pathways to connect Meridian with Boise,Nampa,Kuna,and Eagle."(6.01.02C) A segment of the City's multi-use pathway system is designated on the Master Pathways Plan on this site along the Williams Northwest pipeline which will connect to the future pathway in Biltmore Estates Subdivision to the north and eventually be extended to the southeast and connect to pathways in other jurisdictions. • "Review new development for appropriate opportunities to connect local roads and collectors to adjacent properties (stub streets). (3.03.020) The proposed plat depicts an extension of W. Harris Street, a collector street,from the northeast to the west boundary of the site and a north/south collector street along the northern portion of the west boundary of the site. Stub streets are proposed to the south, west and east for future extension and interconnectivity. The proposed development plan is consistent with the vision of the Comprehensive Plan in regard to land use, density,transportation and pedestrian connectivity for this area. VI. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE ANALYSIS(UDC) History:A preliminary plat was approved for this property in 2015 consisting of 120 buildable lots. A subsequent preliminary plat was approved in 2018 which decreased buildable lot sizes and increased the number of buildable lots by 16 to 136; this entitlement is still valid. A. Development Agreement(DA)Modification: The applicant requests a modification to the existing development agreement(Inst. #2015- 112095, amended Inst. #2018-086664)to increase the number of single-family residential buildable lots from 136 to 200 and the qualified open space from 8.85 to 8.97 acres; the number of multi-family buildable lots and apartments are proposed to stay the same at 2 and 224 units respectively. The previous gross density of the single-family residential portion was 3.23 units per acre compared to 4.9 units per acre currently proposed;the density of the multi-family portion is the same at 14.18 units per acre. The proposed increase in density is still consistent with that desired in the MDR FLUM designation. The previous development plan included a 1,720 linear foot segment of the City's 10-foot wide multi-use pathway in a linear open space area bisecting the site where the William's Pipeline is Page 6 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda NmitP — PageNZmffM located, a children's play structure and yard shuffleboard as amenities. The proposed plan still includes a multi-use pathway and children's play structure but the yard shuffleboard has been removed and a community swimming pool is proposed as an upgraded amenity. The access and interconnectivity proposed to adjacent parcels with the proposed plan is substantially the same as the previous plan. The current provisions of the DA are included in Section VIII.A.1 along with the Applicant's proposed changes in strike-out/underline format. Proposed changes consist of updating the lot counts and open space area and updating Lot and Block numbers consistent with the proposed plat. Staff also recommends a couple of other minor modifications as noted. The existing plat in Section VIII.A.1 should be updated with the proposed plat in Section VIII.A.2 if the MDA is approved by City Council. When approved,the amended DA is required to be signed by the property owner(s)/developer and returned to the City within 6 months of the Council granting the modification. B. Preliminary Plat: The proposed plat consists of 200 single-family residential buildable lots, 2 multi-family buildable lots, 14 common lots, 3 common driveway lots, 1 park lot that may be a portion of a future City neighborhood park and 1 City well lot on 52.46 acres of land in the R-8 (medium density residential) and R-40 (high density residential)zoning districts. Proposed single-family residential lots range in size from 4,200 to 9,600 square feet(s.f.)with an average lot size of 4,692 s.f. and a gross density of 4.89 units/acre. The single-family portion of the plat is proposed to develop in 3 phases as shown on the phasing plan on Sheet PP-1 of the plat; the multi-family portion and linear open space where the pipeline easement is located should be depicted as the fourth phase. Staff recommends the boundary of Phase 1 is modified to include the street buffer and sidewalk along W.Harris St. on Lot 29,Block 3. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are no existing structures or site improvements on this property. Proposed Use Analysis: Single-family detached dwellings are listed as a principal permitted use in the R-8 zoning district; and multi-family developments are listed as a conditional use in the R-40 zoning district per UDC Table 11-2A-2: Allowed Uses, subject to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-27. Specific Use Standards (UDC 11-4-3): Single-family residential: None Multi-family residential: The proposed multi-family development is required to comply with the specific use standards listed in UDC (11-4-3-27). The project will be reviewed for consistency with these standards upon submittal of a detailed development plan with a future conditional use permit application. Dimensional Standards (UDC L�L-2): R-8 district: (UDC Table 11-2A-6);R-40 district: (UDC Table 11-2A-8) The property sizes and street frontages of the proposed single-family lots and width of street buffers comply with the aforementioned minimum dimensional standards; future development should comply with the minimum building setbacks and maximum building height standards of the applicable district. Page 7 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda NmitP — paue AW mffffi3 Subdivision Design and Improvement Standards (UDC 11-6C-3) Development of the subdivision is required to comply with the subdivision design and improvement standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3, including but not limited to streets, common driveways, driveways, and block face. There are three common driveways proposed; such driveways should be constructed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-6C-3D.An exhibit should be submitted with the final plat application that depicts the setbacks,fencing,building envelope, and orientation of the lots and structures accessed via the common driveway;if a property abuts a common driveway but has the required minimum street frontage and is taking access via the public street,the driveway should be depicted on the opposite side of the shared property line from the common driveway. Access(UDC 11-3A-3,11-3H- Access is proposed via the extension of W. Harris Street, a collector street, at the northeast corner of the site,which is proposed to stub to the project's west boundary. A collector street is also planned along the northern half of the project's west boundary consistent with the Master Street Map;this street is proposed as an ACHD right-of-way easement with this plat since it is part of the approved preliminary plat for Brundage Estates. The northern portion of the collector street is required to be constructed prior to platting the IOIS`lot as ACHD Policy Manual only allows 100 homes on one point ofpublic street access. Public stub streets are proposed at the south and east boundaries of the site for future extension and neighborhood interconnectivity. Two(2) driveway connections are proposed between the single-family and multi-family portions of the development for interconnectivity. A driveway should be provided at the east boundary of the multi-family development in alignment with that proposed in the adjacent development to the east(i.e. Stapleton Subdivision) for emergency access; a cross-access easement should be granted to that property and a recorded copy submitted to the City prior to signature on the final plat that contains Lot 28, Block 3. Parking(UDC 11-3C): Off-street parking is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC Table 11- 3C-6 for single-family detached dwellings based on the number of bedrooms per unit.Future development should comply with these standards. Pathways(UDC 11-3A-8): A 10' wide multi-use pathway is proposed within the Williams Northwest Pipeline easement on Lot 27C,Block 3 consistent with the Pathways Master Plan between the single-family and multi- family developments. Construction of the pathway should comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-8. Staff recommends a pedestrian connection is provided to the multi-use pathway within the pipeline easement through the middle of Blocks 2 and 3 in general alignment with S.Redwater Ave. A 14-foot wide recreational pathway easement is required to be provided for the multi-use pathway within Lot 27C,Block 3 and Lot 2C,Block 9. The applicant shall coordinate with Kim Warren,Park's Department(208-888-3579), on the location of the easement.The easement shall be submitted to the Planning Division for approval by the City Council and subsequent recordation,prior to signature on the final plat by the City Engineer. Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-1 : Detached sidewalks are proposed throughout the development in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-17. Page 8 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda NmitP — Page A44mffffi3 Parkways (UDC 11-3A-1 : Eight-foot wide parkways are proposed adjacent to all local and collector streets in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-17. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): A 20-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to all collector streets,landscaped per the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C; the street buffer in the R-40 district on the multi-family portion of the development is required to be placed in a common lot as set forth in UDC 11- 313-7C.2a and landscaped in accord with the aforementioned standards. Parkways are required to be constructed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-17E and landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B-7C. The total lineal feet of parkways and required vs.proposed trees should be included in the Landscape Calculations table on the landscape plan. Landscaping is required along all pathways in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-3B- 12C. Because trees are prohibited within the Williams Northwest Pipeline easement on Lot 27C, Block 3 and Lot 2C,Block 9,the Applicant applied for and received approval of Alternative Compliance to these standards with H-2018-0054. This approval does not expire. Common open space is required to be landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11- 3G-3E. Because trees are prohibited within the Williams Northwest Pipeline easement on Lot 27C,Block 3 and Lot 2C,Block 9,the Applicant applied for and received approval of Alternative Compliance to these standards with H-2018-0054. This approval does not expire. Qualified Open Space(UDC 11-3G1: A minimum of 10%qualified open space meeting the standards listed in UDC 11-3G-3B is required.

A detail of the children's play structure should be submitted with the final plat application. Waterways(UDC 11-3A_�: The Sundell Lateral bisects this site. The Applicant's narrative states the Developer proposes to relocate and pipe the facility with 36 inch water class DR51/Class 80 pipe; construction plans have been approved by the Boise Project Board of Control and the Bureau of Reclamation. The Tumbler/Carlson Lateral runs along the east boundary of the site and is proposed to be piped in its historical alignment. Page 9 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda NmitP — Page345affM Fencing(UDC 11-3A-6,11-3A- • Fencing abutting pathways and common open lots not entirely visible from a public street is restricted as set forth in UDC 11-3A-7A.7; where open vision fencing is proposed,it must not restrict or impede vision or sight through the fence by more than 20% per UDC 11-1A-1. Six-foot tall vinyl lattice fence is proposed along the rear of building lots adjacent to the pipeline easement on Lot 27C,Block 3 and adjacent to common lots with micro-paths. Six-foot tall vinyl fence is proposed at the back edge of street buffers and adjacent to common areas visible from a public street. Utilities(UDC 11-3A-21): Central sewer is provided to the site by extension of an 8 inch main line from Biltmore Estates subdivision.Water service is available to the site with by extension of a 12 inch water main installed by the City in Harris Street and the connection to Well No. 32 as a secondary source. The project will be served by the pressure irrigation pump station constructed adjacent to the Tumbler Lateral,which also provides pressure irrigation water to Biltmore Estates. Well Lot: The applicant has provided the City with a lease on a parcel of land within Lot 1, Block 9 of the development for a future city well. The well lot shall be created and deeded to the city at the time of final platting. Williams Northwest Pipeline: A 75-foot easement for the Williams Northwest Pipeline Corporation bisects this site. All development within the easement must adhere to the most current standards in the Williams Gas Pipeline Developers' Handbook. Building Elevations(UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual): Conceptual building elevations were submitted, included in Section VIII.E,that depict 2-story homes in a variety of styles and materials with stone/brick veneer accents. Design review is not required for single-family detached homes. Because the rear and/or sides of homes abutting the collector streets (W.Harris St. and S. Oakbriar Way)on Lots 2-15,Block 1 and Lots 2-13,Block 5 will be highly visible,Staff recommends these elevations incorporate articulation through changes in two or more of the following: modulation(e.g.projections,recesses, step-backs,pop-outs),bays,banding, porches,balconies,material types,or other integrated architectural elements to break up monotonous wall planes and roof lines that are visible from the subject public street. Single- story structures are exempt from this requirement. VII. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the requested modification to the Development Agreement with the revisions noted in Section VIII.A; and approval of the preliminary plat with the conditions noted in Section IX.A per the Findings in Section X. B. The Meridian Planning&Zoning Commission heard these items on February 6,2020. At the public hearing,the Commission moved to recommend approval of the subject PP request. 1. Summary of Commission public hearing_ a. In favor: Becky McKay, Applicant's Representative; Codger,L2 Construction b. In opposition: Jennifer Pedrali C. Commenting: Monica Bronson d. Written testimony: Becky McKay,Applicant's Representative e. Staff presenting application: Sonya Allen f Other Staff commenting on application:None Page 10 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda NtmitP — Page 34)9mffffi3 2. Key issue(s)of public testimony A. Applicant requested a change to condition#A.10 in Section IX to allow the well lot to be dedicated to the City after recording of the final plat instead of at the time of final platting; b. Not in favor of the proposed increase in density due to there already being a lot of traffic in the area and school overcrowding and belief that impact fees ar too low to support all the development in Meridian; C. Ms. Laidlaw requests Developer install a 6' tall fence on top of a berm across the entire southern end of the development adjoining her property to ensure crops on her property won't be ruined due to trespassing and that an underground pipe is installed to accommodate drainage from her property to replace the existing ditch that runs across this site that serves that purpose (Applicant agreed to install fencing as requested and hashed the Sundall Lateral on her property with a 36"fie all the way up to the north d. Concern pertaining to safety of the W. Harris St. access to Meridian Rd. and more traffic generated from the proposed development—feels traffic light should be installed soon. 3. Ke, issue(s)of discussion by Commission: a. Concern pertaining to the Fire Dept. emergency response time to the site in the event of an emergency(can't meet response time goals); b. Applicant's request to change the timing for dedication of the well lot to the city; C. Preference for the greenbelt pathway to be constructed prior to the apartments and last phase of development as currently proposed; d. Concern pertaining to one main access to the site via W. Harris St. from S. Meridian Rd./SH-69,timing of improvements to W. Harris St.with the development of Stapleton Subdivision to the east, and safety concerns and timing for installation of a traffic signal at the Harris/SH-69 intersection; and, e. Impact of the proposed development on area schools and the absence of comments from WASD. 4. Commission change(s)to Staff recommendation: a. Modify condition#A.10 in Section IX to allow the well lot to be dedicated to the City after recording of the final plat instead of at the time of final platting; b. Include a condition for the multi-use pathway and associated linear open space to be constructed at the end of phase 2 rather than with the last phase of development(see DA provision#5.1m. in Section VIII). 5. Outstandingis for City Council: a. The Commission recommended the multi-use pathway and associated linear open space where the Northwest Gas Pipeline is located be constructed at the end of Phase 2—this is problematic because the boundary of Phase 2 doesn't touch any portion of the pathway,therefore,the lot can't be included in Phase 2. C. The Meridian City Council heard these items on March 10 and 17, 2020. At the public hearing March 17',the Council moved to approve the subject MDA and PP requests. 1.

Describe what is being requested? A budget amendment is being requested to fund the continuous street lighting on Chinden Boulevard in conjunction with the new WinCo/Linder Village project.

FY20 budget made available to put toward this project is$49,039 making the total request for this amendment$196,185. 2. Why was this budget request not submitted during the current fiscal year budget cycle? At budget time,it was believed that continuous street lighting on Chinden would be funded by the State's STAR's program. Recently,ITD made the determination that the lights would not be funded by the STAR's program.Therefore,the project must be funded by the City if it's to be completed.As Chinden is a source of many accidents,fundingthis project is important to vehicle and pedestrian safety. 3. What is the explanation for not submitting this budget request during the next fiscal year budget cycle? Chinden Road widening construction has started,and it will be more cost-effective to have the streetlights installed in collaboration with the road widening project due to savings in site restoration and traffic control. 4 4. Describe the proposed method of funding? If funding is split between Funds(i.e. General,Enterprise,Grant),please include the percentage split. List the amounts and sources ofanticipated additional revenue that will result from approval ofthis request. Funding will be from the General Fund.

REQUESTED COUNCIL DATE: 6/2/20 I. RECOMMENDED ACTION A. Move to: 1. Approve the Chinden WinCo Project Street Light Budget Amendment for $196,185. 2. Authorize the Mayor to sign the amendment. II. DEPARTMENT CONTACT PERSONS Al Christy, Transportation and Utility Coordinator (208)489-0352 Warren Stewart, City Engineer (208)489-0350 Dale Bolthouse, Director of Public Works (208) 985-1257 i III. DESCRIPTION A. Background Over the last year,the Public Works Department has worked with various parties on the WinCo Chinden Blvd. widening project. The initial project plan development included continuous lighting along Chinden Blvd., and was to be funded by a STAR's agreement with WinCo. Recently, ITD made the j determination that continuous roadway lighting would not be funded by the STAR's agreement. This determination has left the City to fund and install the balance of the lighting not included in the development agreement. Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 249 of 263 Page I of 4 Installing the streetlights during the roadway construction will be more cost effective than installing them after the roadway work is complete. The Public Works Department has coordinated with WinCo to include streetlight installation in the project. This amendment will fund twenty-nine (29) additional streetlights and will provide continuous street lighting east of Linder Road (see attached exhibit). Work on the lights will commence as soon as the budget is approved. This request is similar to the FY20 Chinden Costco Street Lighting amendment approved by Council in November. B. Reason for Amendment This request is for an additional 29 streetlights to be installed on Chinden Boulevard. Continuous lighting on Chinden that is uniform in appearance and installed at the same time will provide the highest level of safety for pedestrians and vehicles. This is especially important as Chinden Boulevard has historically had more serious accidents compared to other roads in Meridian. The main standards for streetlights in the U.S., the AASHTO Roadway Lighting Design Guide and AASHTO Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets, state that continuous lighting generally provides a 30% reduction in nighttime accidents. These standards are enforced by the City of Meridian as shown in Section 6-2 of the Meridian City Design Standards. Also — Section 6-3 of the Standards states that streetlights are required for all development including road widening. Payment on the project will be made once streetlights are installed and have passed inspection. IV. IMPACT A. Fiscal Impact: Funding for this effort includes both current and future development fees along with adjustments to projects in FY20 and the FY21-24 CFP as outlined in the table below. Chinden Winco Street Light Funding Scenario Offsetting Funds Notes Current Development Funds $ 16,930.00 Future Anticipated Development Funds $ 59,255.00 CFP Adjusted FY21—24 Street Lights—Supplemental Projects $ 20,000.00 Lowered FY21-24 $5000 per year Street Light Fixture Upgrade to LED Projects $ 100,000.00 Lowered FY21-24 $25,000 per year Total Identified Offsetting funds $ 196,185.00 FY20 Approved Budget Available $ 49,039.00 Project Total $ 245,224.00 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 250 of 263 Page 2 of 4 B. Strategic Im-pact: This program meets our mission requirements to identify and prioritize work to anticipate,plan and provide public services that support the needs of our growing community. C. Service/Delivery Impact: The increase in funding will allow the City to provide the highest level of service for pedestrian and vehicular safety on Chinden Boulevard. V. TIME CONSTRAINTS Time is of the essence. The City does not want to delay the project and there is a lead- time to procure the additional materials.

The intent of the survey is to help the City understand the community's use and satisfaction of various services that are offered in Meridian. Some of these services are provided directly by the City, such as police, fire, parks, water, etc. Others are provided by partner agencies or providers (ACHD, Schools, etc.). We plan to issue the attached draft survey instrument over the next three months, and have contracted with ETC Institute, who will administer a statistically valid survey process as in past years. ETC Institute has reviewed the survey for content and of the 34 questions, 31 are substantially the same (if not identical). New questions added consist of#10, #11, #20A. Keeping questions consistent with past surveys allows the City to track and trend information over time so that the City can have consistent data related to the services offered in Meridian.

The scope of this First Amendment is limited to addressing the deannexation of certain parcels from the Downtown District Project Area. It is important to note this First Amendment to the Plan does not extend the Plan's duration. The Plan tenninates on December 31,2026;however,revenue allocation proceeds will be received in 2027 pursuant to Idaho Code § 50-2905(7). As a result of the deannexation, in 2020 through the remaining years of the Plan, the Urban Renewal Agency of the City of Meridian, Idaho, also known as the Meridian Development Corporation (the "MDC") will cease receiving an allocation of revenues from the deannexed parcels. The increment value of the parcels deannexed from the Downtown District Project Area shall be included in the net taxable value of the taxing district when calculating the subsequent property tax levies pursuant to section 63-803, Idaho Code. The increment value shall also be included in subsequent notification of taxable value for each taxing district pursuant to section 63- 1312, Idaho Code, and subsequent certification of actual and adjusted market values for each school district pursuant to section 63-315, Idaho Code, The Ada County Assessor's Office maintains the value information, including the increment value, if any, included on the new construction roll for new construction associated with the deals exed parcels. The amount added to the new construction roll will equal the amount by which the December 31, 2019, increment value exceeds the increment value as of December 31, 2006. House Bill 606, effective July 1, 2016, amended the Local Economic Development Act, Chapter 29,Title 50, Idaho Code, as amended (the"Act") firmly establishing"[f]or plans adopted or modified prior to July 1, 2016, and for subsequent modifications of those urban renewal plans, the value of the base assessment roll of property within the revenue allocation area shall be determined as if the modification had not occurred." Idaho Code § 50-2903(4). Though the provisions of Idaho Code § 50-2903A do not apply to the Plan, a plan amendment or modification to accommodate a de-annexation in the revenue allocation boundary is a specifically identified exception to a base reset. Idaho Code§ 50-2903A(1)(a)(iii). This highlights the legislative support for these types of amendments, AMENDMENTS TO THE PLAN 1. Definitions.

Simison E IDIAN City Council Members: Treg Bernt Brad Hoaglun Joe Borton Jessica Perreault A H a Luke Cavener Liz Strader EXHIBIT A.1 TO RESOLUTION PZ-20-01 TO: Meridian Planning &Zoning Commission DATE: April 9, 2020 FROM: Ted Baird, Deputy City Attorney RE: First Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan The first of two Resolutions before you is to recommend an amendment to the existing Meridian Revitalization Plan to de-annex certain land from that Plan so that it can be included in the proposed Union District Plan. As background, the 16 acres for the proposed Union District Plan are currently within the boundaries of the Meridian Revitalization Plan(the "Downtown District Plan"), which terminates on December 31, 2026. Idaho Code does not allow a parcel to be within the boundaries of two urban renewal districts, therefore, the parcels currently in the Downtown District Plan must be de-annexed pursuant to a plan amendment. The de-annexed area has the same boundaries as the proposed Union District Plan. RECOMMENDATION: As the First Amendment represents a de-annexation of lands within the existing Downtown District Plan and does not add any land are to the Downtown District Plan or change any land use in the Comprehensive Plan, the proposed First Amendment maintains consistency with the Comprehensive Plan. For additional information and findings,please refer to the April 8, 2020 Planning Division Memorandum. EXHIBIT A.1 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 34 of 293 Mayor Robert E. Simison ER,IDnIANA=%-11 City Council Members: Treg Bernt Brad Hoaglun Joe Borton Jessica Perreault Luke Cavener Liz Strader EXHIBIT A.2 TO RESOLUTION PZ-20-01 April 9, 2020 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Robert Simison Meridian City Council Meridian Planning & Zoning Commission CC: David Miles, Chief of Staff Cameron Arial, Community Development Director Victoria Cleary, Economic Development Administrator Caleb Hood, Planning Division Manager FROM: Caleb Hood, Planning Division Manager Brian McClure, Comprehensive Associate Planner RE: Urban Renewal Plan for the Union District Urban Renewal Project This memo is intended to provide Comprehensive Plan related analysis for the proposed Urban Renewal Plan for the Union District Urban Renewal Project(Union District Plan) in downtown Meridian. Due to the current COVID-19 outbreak and associated quarantine, Staff is including analysis within this memo that otherwise would be shared and explained during the meeting. City Staff will be in virtual attendance at the April 16th Planning & Zoning Commission meeting to give a brief report and summary and to answer any questions, but does not intend to get into many details; this memo should be relied on heavily for Staff s analysis. Application of the City's Comprehensive Plan(Plan)to the proposed Union District area(see Attachment A) is very relevant. Every major theme (chapter) in the Plan ranging from economic development and land use to historic preservation and transportation contain policies that are directly applicable. Additionally, the Comprehensive Plan adopts other documents by reference, for inclusion in consideration of land use decisions and to direct staff activities. Many of the referenced documents are relevant both in geographic area and to the described implementation strategies and goals in the Union District Plan. The following analysis describes the associated text, policies, and referenced plans. EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 35 of 293 Analysis Plan Text The implementation strategies and goals stated in the Union District Plan clearly describe activities aimed at stimulating private development through the reduction of blight and the construction or community improvements. Some of the listed activities include: design and construction of infrastructure improvements; acquisition or support in rehabilitation of real property; financial assistance for business; advanced funding for development; and public- private partnership in the construction of a new Community Center. See pages 3-4 and 9-10 of the plan for how the goals of the plan will be achieved. The Evolving Community section (Chapter 3) of the City's Comprehensive Plan, defines future land use typologies. The description for Old Town, the adopted future land use in and around the project area, states: This designation includes the historic downtown and the true community center. The boundary of the Old Town district predominantly follows Meridian's historic plat boundaries. In several areas, both sides of a street were incorporated into the boundary to encourage similar uses and complimentary design of the facing houses and buildings. Sample uses include offices, retail and lodging, theatres, restaurants, and service retail for surrounding residents and visitors. A variety of residential uses are also envisioned and could include reuse of existing buildings, new construction of multi family residential over ground floor retail or office uses. The City has developed specific architectural standards for Old Town and other traditional neighborhood areas. Pedestrian amenities are emphasized in Old Town via streetscape standards. Additional public and quasi public amenities and outdoor gathering area are encouraged. Future planning in Old Town will be reviewed in accordance with Destination Downtown, a visioning document for redevelopment in Downtown Meridian. Please see Chapter 2 Premier Community for more information on Destination Downtown. Sample zoning include O-T. The Old Town future land use designation is the most diverse in the City's land use portfolio, with the greatest combined range of residential and non-residential uses and no caps on density or intensity of developed uses. Further, the City's complimentary zoning, also named Old Town (O-T), has zero setbacks for structures, relaxed parking requirements, and reduced landscape setbacks (aside from pedestrian streetscape infrastructure.) Interestingly, the Union District Plan makes numerous references to the City's planning documents dictating density and character elements, but it is Destination Downtown, developed by the Meridian Development Corporation(MDC), that dictates general uses, building mass and character, and intensity of developments. The City has adopted Destination Downtown by reference, and supports MDC's plan by adopting an eclectic and flexible future land use and zoning designation. With Destination Downtown nearing a decade of use however, existing conditions varying in several significant areas, many new stakeholders and community groups, and with the downtown urban renewal district expiring in the upcoming years, it is likely the plan is nearing the end of its relevancy. Plan Policies The following text relates to the policies found throughout the major themes in the Comprehensive Plan(Chapters 2 through 6). Not all policies must be addressed or apply to the Union District Plan, but staff has tried to include all downtown related policies below. Additional context for these policies can be found in the Related Policies section(see Attachment B), which EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 36 of 293 includes parent Goals and Objectives, for the referenced policies. Note: the first number of a policy references the Chapter in which the policy can be found. • 2.02.01E, Encourage the development of high quality, dense residential and mixed use areas near in and around Downtown, near employment, large shopping centers,public open spaces and parks, and along major transportation corridors, as shown on the Future Land Use Map. A new urban renewal district focused on infrastructure (parking, utilities, etc.)would provide the tools necessary to support and encourage redevelopment in an area of town that suffers from significant blight. • 2.02.02B, Consider incentives such as density bonuses, reduced open space requirements, and reduced fees for infill development in key areas near existing services. A new urban renewal district could provide for incentives such as infrastructure and infrastructure reimbursement through tax increment financing (TIF). • 2.02.02C, Support infill development that does not negatively impact the abutting, existing development. Infill projects in Downtown should develop at higher densities, irrespective of existing development. The Union District Plan does not address how transitions between existing and proposed redevelopment may take place, but could do so transparently as part of negotiations for partnerships with the Urban Renewal District, and through public hearing and administrative approvals with the City. Staff will review future projects for consistency with this policy. The Union District Plan addresses density increases throughout the document. • 2.02.02D, Apply appropriate design and construction standards to infill development in order to reduce adverse impacts to existing development. The Union District Plan makes specific references to establishing performance criteria and design standards in goal `i'(page 4), and duplicated under implementation letter `w' (page H). They state: In conjunction with the City, the establishment and implementation of performance criteria to assure high site design standards and environmental quality and other design elements which provide unity and integrity to the entire Project Area, including commitment of funds for planning studies, achieving high standards of development, and leveraging such development to achieve public objectives and efficient use of scarce resources. This is critical work to be done proactively, as the City does not have any site or building design standards specific to Downtown (just general traditional neighborhood design), or for policies related to historic preservation and enhancements. NOTE:Development of design standards downtown has not been preliminarily identified as a high priority project for the City. • 2.09.01B, Establish incentives to develop gathering spaces and civic facilities within Downtown. A new urban renewal district could provide for incentives such as gathering spaces and civic facilities, which could be reimbursed through tax increment financing(TIF). Part of the Union District Plan specifically references a public private partnership, including the City, for the construction of a community center. • 2.09.01 C, Work towards mitigating and removing floodplain issues around Downtown. There is no floodplain in this area of Downtown. EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 37 of 293 • 2.09.02A, Actively implement action items in the Destination Downtown Plan. Destination Downtown was created by the Meridian Development Corporation for the downtown Urban Renewal District, and adopted by the City. This plan was extremely broad in land use diversity, area, and scope. The project area for the Union District Plan is included within the Destination Downtown area, but previous efforts failed to eliminate blight that this new district seeks to address. With the existing downtown urban renewal set to expire in the coming years, this new district is an opportunity for more renewed and focused efforts, both geographically and in implementation activities. • 2.09.02B, Pursue grants and public-private partnerships to enhance Downtown. A new urban renewal district could both provide grants and make more competitive applications for grants, by utilizing a dedicated funding source such as tax increment financing(TIF). • 2.09.02C, Develop programs with local partners to expand art, cultural, and educational facilities in Downtown. There are several references to these activities and facilities throughout the Union District Plan. Art may be done both as public private partnership, or independent of development, and educational facilities are described in several areas including implementation strategies (letter `o). It should be noted that the Union District Plan describes the Urban Renewal District's ability to make decisions related to public art independent of the Meridian Arts Commission, which to date has focused a great deal of time, money, and energy in downtown. Staff recommends caution with multiple independent entities exercising self determination of overlapping activities. • 2.09.02D, Develop and support regular cultural activities and events Downtown, in partnership with the Downtown Business Association and other organizations. Supporting events is not described within the Union District Plan directly, but supporting the development of locations for these to occur is addressed. • 2.09.02F, Support a compatible mix of land uses Downtown that activate the area during day and night. Supporting specific uses at discrete times of the day is not described within the Union District Plan directly, but supporting the development of mixed-use locations,facilities, and supporting infrastructure (e.g. —parking) is discussed. • 2.09.02G, Implement the City of Meridian Design Standards and City of Meridian Architectural Standards Manual to ensure that Downtown remains the historic center for mixed-use tourism, business, retail, residential, and governmental activities. The City has land use authority over the project area and implementation of design and architectural standards must be met. However, these standards, while allowing for these types of uses/attractions, does not necessarily cater to or encourage them. Additional work is necessary if downtown specific and historical context is desired. The Union District Plan speaks to this work under goal `i'(page 4), and duplicated under implementation letter `w' (page 11). • 2.09.03B, Promote Ten Mile, Downtown, and The Village as centers of activity and growth. The Union District Plan seeks to redevelop some of the most blighted property in the City, at the heart and center of the Downtown area, and which is otherwise adjacent to some of the most iconic and well used public spaces outside of traditional parks. By successfully EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 38 of 293 redeveloping this highly visible blight, Downtown will be well placed to offer and promote a dense concentration ofpublic spaces for activity use by many. • 2.09.03E, Develop concept plans of potential destination activities and promote appropriate development, infill, and redevelopment of activity centers. The Union District Plan does not address this directly, but the intention of the Plan is to support these types of activities through public private partnerships of community facilities. • 3.03.01 E, Encourage infill development. The unstated purpose of the Union District Plan, through virtually all of the goals and implementation strategies, is to encourage infill development through redevelopment of blighted lands and development of community facilities through public private partnerships. • 3.03.03G, Require urban infrastructure be provided for all new developments, including curb and gutter, sidewalks, water and sewer utilities. The City has land use authority over the project area and urban infrastructure will be required with all redevelopment. Further, the Union District Plan calls out specific implementation strategies including road, curb, gutter, streetscape, lighting, stormwater, and others throughout the document(including financial analysis). • 4.04.02A, Identify opportunities for new paths that connect residential neighborhoods and community facilities, such as the library and city hall,parks, schools, athletic facilities, swimming pools, historic districts, the Downtown, as well as other commercial and retail activity centers in Meridian. The City's Pathway Master Plan depicts several options through the project area, and will be required as part of redevelopment of the site. The Union District Plan references pathways both through goals and implementation items. • 4.05.01E, Assess environmental impact of potential new development, infill, and redevelopment. The Union District Plan specifically addresses environmental assessment of brownfield sites, and more generally towards environmental quality and creating standards to maintain environmental quality in coordination with the City (goal letter `i). Outside of floodplain impacts however, the City does not have much in the way of requirements or regulations to this end. • 5.02.01A, Maintain and implement design and building standards for historically significant buildings and resources in Old Town. There are no historically significant structures within the project area. The Union District Plan emphasizes consideration for the historic character and quality of the area. Stronger efforts by designers to this end are needed, or standards created, to protect and enhance the general area prior to design and permit approval for structures in this area, if this policy statement is a priority. It would be difficult to suggest that preliminary concepts for structures on either the Civic Block or Union Pacific property compliment or lend aid to any historic themes in the Old Town area. The bulk and mass of concept buildings could easily overwhelm and minimize other historic structures in the area without further integration of ideas and themes. EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 39 of 293 • 6.01.01 C, Improve ingress and egress opportunities for all modes of transportation in Downtown. The Union District Plan references improvements to roads, sidewalks,pathways, and a railroad crossing, as projects for implementation. Improvements to East 3rd Street specifically would greatly enhance bicycle access into downtown, and provide more options for local residents and stakeholders. • 6.01.02D, Consider needed sidewalk, pathway, landscaping, and lighting improvements with all land use decisions. The City has land use authority over the project area and redevelopment will be required to provide infrastructure. The Union District Plan also specifically references all of these elements as projects for implementation. • 6.01.021, Pursue the extension of Idaho Ave. and/or Broadway Ave. to Commercial Dr. and the extension of East 3rd St. from Fairview Ave. to Pine Ave. in Downtown. While not directly referencing the extension of these streets,proposed implementation (improvement)projects for both Broadway Ave and East 3rd Street would go a long way in highlighting the value of these projects and encouraging their construction. • 6.01.02L, Work with ACHD to implement projects from the 2012 Downtown Meridian Neighborhood Pedestrian and Bicycle Plan. While not directly referencing coordination with ACHD on implementation of the 2012 Neighborhood Plan, improvements to East 3rd Street are directly aligned and much needed for north-south bicycle connectivity through Downtown. Neither Meridian Road nor Main Street have dedicated bike facilities, and a safe multi-modal, north-south connection is needed between existing pathway connection on Franklin near Storey Park, and on Pine near Five Mile Creek. EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 40 of 293 Referenced Plans The following plans are adopted by reference in the City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan, and are relevant material to the proposed Union District Plan. • Downtown Meridian Street Cross-section Master Plan Every road within the project area is included within the Downtown Meridian Street Cross- section Master Plan. Adopted in 2014, this document includes cross-section concepts intended to work with minimal impact to available impact, while also serving multiple modes. Vibrant streetscape activity is especially important in the Old Town area, and including the Union District Project area. Connectivity both east-west and north-south through the downtown area is very important. It is particularly important that East 3Yd Street incorporate a pathway element to support connectivity of the City's Pathway Master Plan through downtown, connecting Storey Park to Fairview Avenue. Traffic speeds on Meridian Road are unfriendly to pedestrian, and neither Meridian Road nor Main Street provide safe bicycle connectivity north-south, and there is no other railroad crossing within the downtown area besides East 3rd Street. • Historic Preservation Plan The Historic Preservation Commission and City adopted this plan in 2014. With less than 2.2% of Meridian's housing stock being older than 1960's construction (2017 Existing Conditions Report), and almost all of it consolidated in the Downtown area, there is very limited opportunity for historic preservation outside of agricultural themes in the larger community. Several goals from this plan are relevant to the Union District Plan, including: o Goal I Preserve and enhance Meridian's historical, cultural and agricultural heritage. o Goal 3 Heighten public awareness of historic preservation in the community and improve preservation education efforts for various audiences. o Goal 4 Maintain and strengthen support for historic preservation from individuals, commercial property owners, local organizations and neighborhood groups. These goals for the Commission (and City) are not just about preserving, but also enhancing and generating awareness of Meridian's history. Additional objectives for these goals are described within the plan. • Meridian Rail-With-Trail Action Plan A portion of the project area includes Union Pacific right-of-way that is a part of the Boise cut-off. The Meridian Rail-With-Trail Action Plan identified an opportunity for a Treasure Valley-wide multi-use pathway. This Action Plan has since been supplemented with numerous planning efforts looking at more detailed cross-sections, street crossings, and alternatives. Meridian is actively working to construct certain portions, and part of this network must be constructed within the project area, either along the rail corridor right-of- way or integrated through site planning. EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 41 of 293 • Meridian Parks and Recreation Master Plan One of the projects described in the proposed Union District Plan is the development of a community center as part of the Civic Block project. Objective 4.3 of the Meridian Parks and Recreation Master Plan identifies expanded indoor recreation space as a priority for the community. Pathways are another significant element of this plan, and further emphasizes the demand for connectivity improvements to and through downtown, and the project area. • Meridian Pathways Master Plan The Pathways Master Plan identifies north-south (East 3Yd Street) and east-west (Broadway/Rail with Trail)pathway connections through the project site. This plan works in concert with the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, Meridian Rail-With-Trail Action Plan, and through many of the policies in the Comprehensive Plan. • Downtown Meridian Transportation Management Plan This plan has resulted in significant roadway expansions within Meridian, including the split corridor phase I and phase 2 improvements. Two of the last projects left in the Downtown Meridian Transportation Management Plan are the East 3rd Street connection north of Carlton Ave and south of Badley Ave, and the extension of either Broadway Ave or Idaho Ave east to Commercial Ave (and ultimately to Locust Grove). These projects/connections are essential in supporting the densities necessary for the larger downtown area to be a thriving center of activity. The Union District Plan could benefit both of these streets in close proximity to the areas set for expansion. • Downtown Meridian Neighborhood Pedestrian and Bicycle Plan Developed by ACHD, this plan identified a number of community drive projects to enhance the pedestrian and bicycle connectivity in the area. ACHD has been diligent in programming and constructing these projects, and one of the last significant components is identified sidewalk improvements on East 3Yd Street. There are sidewalk gaps in the project area and the rail crossing is unsafe and outright impassable for some with mobility disabilities. One of the projects in the Union District Plan would include street improvements to East 3Yd Street near Broadway, and including the rail crossing. All of these plans are available on the City's Comprehensive Plan website at: https://meridiancily.oriz/plannin /�compplan/resources. Recommendation Based on the analysis provided in this memo, Staff believes establishing an Urban Renewal District Plan for the Union Block project to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and in the best interest of the City. Accordingly, Staff recommends that the Commission move to approve the two related Resolutions on the meeting agenda as follows: A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION FOR THE CITY OF MERIDIAN,IDAHO,VALIDATING CONFORMITY OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE MERIDIAN REVITALIZATION PLAN WITH THE CITY OF MERIDIAN'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION FOR THE CITY OF MERIDIAN,IDAHO,VALIDATING CONFORMITY OF THE URBAN RENEWAL PLAN FOR THE UNION DISTRICT URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT WITH THE CITY OF MERIDIAN'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EXHIBIT A.2 TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-01 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 42 of 293 Attachment A: Union District Area (Urban Renewal District) Future Land Uses I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I J I I I I u I 0 Medium Density Residential Industrial E STATE AVE -- 2 -Civic ® � h , 0 Old Town 1 0 Mixed Use Community ' E PINE=AVE� C 0 y N II IITII = �I I I F V!

Below is a brief summary of this significant step in accomplishing these plans:the First Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan ("Amendment") providing for the de-annexation of 15 parcels from the original downtown urban renewal plan; and the new Union District Urban Renewal Plan ("Plan").We felt this would be helpful to bring you up to speed and aid in your evaluation of the proposal. The May 2611,2020 meeting and this memo is to inform the Council of past context,communicate pertinent information,and to aid the Council in its preparation for the official public hearing scheduled for June 2,2020. Final City Council action is to be taken on June 9, 2020 after the public hearing. History The City and MDC are pursuing the creation of a new 16-acre urban renewal district in downtown Meridian to generate needed economic opportunities for the entire community and upgrade critical infrastructure. The City and MDC have been working to accomplish key initiatives of the City's Strategic and Comprehensive Plans and MDC's Destination Downtown revitalization plan for quite some time. Last year an RFP for a downtown development concept was broadly distributed in an effort to redevelop City-and MDC-owned properties between Idaho and Broadway and 2nd and 3rd Streets, known as the Civic Block.A third party developer(Galena Opportunity Fund)was unanimously selected and approved by both the City Council and MDC Board to assist in the redevelopment of the properties in a true Public Private Partnership.The developer proposed to harness the tax increment financing(TIF) revenues of urban renewal from their conceptual project on the Union Pacific properties to the south and channel those revenues to public improvements to accomplish many of the City's and MDC's strategic goals.This was the genesis of the proposal before you. Current Advancements Since then,the City and MDC have been moving forward to make the proposal a reality.A major part of the process is the deannexation of the proposed properties from the existing urban renewal district and the creation of a new district encompassing those properties. Urban renewal districts are designed to help alleviate blight, encourage economic vibrancy,spur private investment, and fund important public infrastructure improvements.The Civic Block area being considered is the most underdeveloped part of downtown Meridian.The area could greatly benefit from upgrades to the sidewalks, community lighting,water and sewer lines and roads to name just a few needs. Currently, it sits within the existing urban renewal district. However,with only six years left until the existing district expires, more time is needed to generate the necessary TIF revenues to fully redevelop and tackle needed public infrastructure improvements. 33 E.

The Planning and Zoning Commission adopted Resolution No. 20-01,validating conformity of the Amendment and Resolution No. 20-02,validating conformity of the Union District Plan with the City's Comprehensive Plan.The staff analysis presented to the Commission is attached. This is the first of three required readings of Ordinance No. 20-1881 approving the Plan Amendment and Ordinance No. 20-1882 approving the Union District Plan. STAFF ANALYSIS Legal staff has reviewed State Code and confirms that the process has followed statutes, including the required distribution of both documents to all affected taxing entities. Amendment The Amendment is required to de-annex the 15 properties first identified in the Eligibility Report.The annual revenue loss TIF is estimated at$12,000.The annual revenue gain from any future redevelopment will greatly exceed this base amount. Union District Plan The economic feasibility study estimates total tax increment revenue of$16,286,436 to be generated over the life of the Plan (Plan will sunset on December 31, 2040).This figure was determined using the following assumptions: • Total private investment of$125,737,000 in the first five years of the Plan,occurring in 2023 and 2025 • Annual land value increase of 1% • Annual improvement value increase of 2% • A 10%reduction in the current tax rate, held constant through the life of the Plan The projected revenue is sufficient to fund the proposed $15,040,000 public improvements outlined in the Plan.That figure would likely be reduced to$12,040,000 based on an anticipated $3,000,000 impact fee City contribution for the Community Center(Attachment 5.1).

How would creating a URD affect the properties area? 1. Help with Blight and Infrastructure Challenges -A City with an area that struggles to redevelop because of blight, deteriorating buildings, or a lack of infrastructure can utilize Urban Renewal to invest in specific districts. It is one of the only tools available to cities to help fund public infrastructure improvements. 2. Funded by Property Tax Increment- Establishing an URD doesn't raise property taxes. Over time if redevelopment happens, the property values increase. As they increase, the new tax revenue (that wouldn't have been there if not for urban renewal) is re-invested in the URD. 3. District Plan - Cities follow a District Plan and can only work on projects outlined within that plan. Once the URD sunsets, increased annual incremental revenues are placed on the new construction roll for taxation. City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— P ■ How is the boundary of RI determined? The boundary of a URD is determined by examining areas of the City that are prime for redevelopment (downtown) or development (future business and/or industrial areas). These areas will be evaluated to determine eligibility. Eligibility criteria, per Idaho Code, includes deteriorating buildings or sites, defective street layouts, faulty lot layout, insanitary or unsafe conditions, diversity of ownership, tax delinquency, defective and unusual conditions of title, or endangerment of life or property. An additional eligibility requirement is that the combined base assessment rolls of district(s) must be below 10 percent of the current assessed valuation of all taxable property within the City. Does a URD take moneyfrom other localgovernment A URD/TIF does not raise taxes or affect impact fees. Where economic disinvestment is evident and revitalization is essential the taxing districts of local government (schools, emergency services, etc.) receive all revenue to which they are entitled under state law and applicable budget and levy limits (base). Is the 'I going to increase Mostly likely NO. Property taxes are not increased when a URD is formed. Assuming the redevelopment activities result in growth that would not have occurred otherwise, the URD's activities help raise property values within Meridian's renewal district(s) at a faster rate than Meridian as a whole. This translates into a more valuable property for the owner and in turn, more tax revenue in the district. That said, rising levy rates are a function of increasing budgets, voter approved bonds/levies and lower taxable value. For example, if there is significant new construction occurring outside the RAA, then levy rates could be lower even with existing project areas. See Tax Increment Financing Graph 1 and Graph 2. What projects andlor improvements are anticipated? Urban renewal districts are formed in areas that are often in need of additional public infrastructure for support of schools, police, housing, roads, utilities, etc. Anticipated improvements may include but are not limited to streets, sidewalks, public utilities, water, sewer, irrigation, lighting, etc. QMWjW City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020- Page 57 of 293 �� URBAN RENEWAL 101 (IN IDAHO) : AUTHORITY, OVERSIGHT, AND IMPLEMENTATION Presented by Ryan P.

The agency should be very cautious in considering funding improvements to private property or formally participating with private entities asa partner, joint venture, etc. Funding could be ultimately deemed a loan or grant or gift of public funds to the private property owner and thus a violation of the Idaho Constitution .

(Local Economic Development Act) • When a revenue allocation area is formed, property valuation is calculated on a parcel-by-parcel basis. This is the base assessment roll of the revenue allocation area . • Base assessment roll for the geographic area under consideration (or collectively if more than one district) cannot exceed so% of the current assessed taxable value for the entire city. • Due to redevelopment, it is anticipated the property values will rise. If property values increase above the base value, the added value is called the increment. 14 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 71 of 293 Revenue Allocation Financing, Continued • Budget for City, County, and other non-school taxing districts limited to previous year's budget plus 3%, new construction and forgone.

The general scope and objective of the First Amendment is the deannexation of certain parcels from the boundaries of the Existing Project Area. The First Amendment shall deannex the following parcels from the Existing Project Area consisting of approximately 16 acres of underdeveloped land and right-of-way near the City's downtown core and is generally bounded by E. Idaho Avenue to the north, E. Third Street to the east, a portion of the railroad right-of-way to the south and N. Main Street to the west, and as more particularly described in Attachment IA to the First Amendment and generally depicted in the map below.

WHEREAS, it is necessary and in the best interest of the citizens of the City, to adopt the Union District Plan and to adopt, as part of the Union District Plan, revenue allocation financing provisions that will help finance urban renewal projects to be completed in accordance with the Union District Plan, in order to: encourage private development in the urban renewal area; prevent and arrest decay of the City due to the inability of existing financing methods to provide needed public improvements; encourage taxing districts to cooperate in the allocation of future tax revenues arising in the Project Area in order to facilitate the long-term growth of their common tax base; encourage private investment within the City; and to further the public purposes of the Agency; WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the equalized assessed valuation of the taxable property in the Project Area is likely to increase, and continue to increase, as a result of initiation and continuation of urban renewal projects in accordance with the Union District Plan; WHEREAS, under the Law and Act any such plan should provide for (1) a feasible method for the location of families who will be displaced from the urban renewal area in decent, safe, and sanitary dwelling accommodations within their means and without undue hardship to such families; (2) the urban renewal plan should conform to the general plan of the municipality as a whole; (3) the urban renewal plan should give due consideration to the provision of adequate park and recreational areas and facilities that may be desirable for neighborhood improvement, with special consideration for the health, safety, and welfare of the children residing in the general vicinity of the site covered by the plan; and (4) the urban renewal plan should afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the municipality as a whole, for the rehabilitation or redevelopment of the urban renewal area by private enterprise; WHEREAS, if the urban renewal area consists of an area of open land to be acquired by the urban renewal agency, such area shall not be so acquired unless (1) if it is to be developed for residential uses, the local governing body shall determine that a shortage of housing of sound standards and design which is decent, safe, and sanitary exists in the municipality; that the need for housing accommodations has been or will be increased as a result of the clearance of slums in other areas; that the conditions of blight in the area and the shortage of decent, safe, and sanitary housing cause or contribute to an increase in and spread of disease and crime and constitute a menace to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare; and that the acquisition of the area for residential uses is an integral part of and essential to the program of the municipality; or (2) if it is to be developed for nonresidential uses, the local governing body shall determine that such nonresidential uses are necessary and appropriate to facilitate the proper URBAN RENEWAL DISTRICT ORDII Ae,Sian�iiy you ncil Meeting Agenda June 2,2020- Page 122 of 293 growth and development of the community in accordance with sound planning standards and local community objectives, which acquisition may require the exercise of governmental action, as provided in the Law, because of defective or unusual conditions of title, diversity of ownership, tax delinquency, improper subdivisions, outmoded street patterns, deterioration of site, economic disuse, unsuitable topography or faulty lot layouts, the need for the correlation of the area with other areas of a municipality by streets and modern traffic requirements, or any combination of such factors or other conditions which retard development of the area; WHEREAS, the collective base assessment rolls of the Union District Project Area, together with the base assessment roll values of the Existing Project Areas, cannot exceed ten percent(10%) of the current assessed values of all the taxable property in the City; WHEREAS, the City Council at its regular meeting held on June 9, 2020, considered the Union District Plan as proposed and made certain comprehensive findings. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MERIDIAN,IDAHO: SECTION 1: It is hereby found and determined that: (a) The Project Area as defined in the Union District Plan is a deteriorated or a deteriorating area as defined in the Law and the Act and qualifies as an eligible urban renewal area under the Law and Act. (b) The rehabilitation, conservation, development and redevelopment of the urban renewal area pursuant to the Union District Plan are necessary in the interests of public health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the City. (c) There continues to be a need for the Agency to function in the City. (d) The Union District Plan conforms to the City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan as a whole. (e) The Union District Plan gives due consideration to the provision of adequate park and recreation areas and facilities that may be desirable for neighborhood improvement (recognizing the mixed use components of the Plan and the need for overall public improvements), and shows consideration for the health, safety, and welfare of any children, residents or businesses in the general vicinity of the urban renewal area covered by the Union District Plan. (f) The Union District Plan affords maximum opportunity consistent with the sound needs of the City as a whole for the rehabilitation and redevelopment of the urban renewal area by private enterprises. (g) Pursuant to Idaho Code §§ 50-2007(h) and 50-2008(d)(1), the Union District Plan provides a feasible method for relocation obligations of any displaced families URBAN RENEWAL DISTRICT ORDII Ae,Sian�iiy you ncil Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 123 of 293 residing within the Project Area and there is not anticipated to be any activity by the Agency that would result in relocation. (h) The collective base assessment rolls for the revenue allocation areas under the Existing Project Areas and the Union District Project Area, do not exceed ten percent(10%) of the assessed values of all the taxable property in the City. (i) The Plan includes the requirements set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2905 with specificity. (j) The Union District Plan is sufficiently complete to indicate such land acquisition, demolition and removal of structures, redevelopment, improvements, and rehabilitation as may be proposed to be carried out in the urban renewal area, zoning and planning changes (if any) land uses, maximum densities, building requirements, and any method or methods of financing such plan, which methods may include revenue allocation financing provisions. (k) The urban renewal area, which includes the deteriorating area, as defined in Idaho Code section 50-2018(9) and Idaho Code section 50-2903(8), does not include any agricultural operation for which the Agency has not received a written consent, or has not been used for agricultural purposes for three (3) consecutive years. (1) The portion of the Project Area which is identified for non-residential uses is necessary and appropriate to facilitate the proper growth and development standards in accordance with the objectives of the Comprehensive Plan to overcome economic disuse, the need for improved traffic patterns, and the need for the correlation of this area with other areas of the City. (m) The portion-of the Project Area which is identified for residential uses is necessary and appropriate as there is a shortage of housing of sound standards and design which is decent, safe and sanitary in the City; that the need for housing accommodations has been or will be increased as a result of the clearance of slums in other areas; that the conditions of blight in the area and the shortage of decent, safe and sanitary housing cause or contribute to an increase in and spread of disease and crime and constitute a menace to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare; and that the acquisition of the area for residential uses is an integral part of and essential to the program of the City. SECTION 2: The City Council finds that the Project Area does not include a substantial portion of open land, that the Agency may acquire any open land within the Project Area, and that the Project Area is planned to be redeveloped in a manner that will include both residential and nonresidential uses. Provided, however, the City Council finds that for the portions of the Project Area deemed to be "open land," the criteria set forth in the Law and Act have been met. SECTION 3: The City Council finds that one of the Union District Plan objectives to increase the residential opportunity does meet the sound needs of the City and will provide housing opportunities in an area that does not now contain such opportunities, and the portion of the Union URBAN RENEWAL DISTRICT ORDII Ae,Sian�iiy you ncil Meeting Agenda June 2,2020- Page 124 of 293 District Project Area which is identified for nonresidential uses are necessary and appropriate to facilitate the proper growth and development standards in accordance with the objectives of City's Comprehensive Plan, to overcome economic disuse, the need for improved traffic patterns, and the need for the correlation of this area with other areas of the City. SECTION 4: The Union District Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto and marked as Exhibit 3 and made a part hereof by attachment, be, and the same hereby is, approved. As directed by the City Council, the City Clerk and/or the Agency may make certain technical corrections or revisions in keeping with the information and testimony presented at the June 2, 2020, hearing and incorporate changes or modifications, if any. SECTION 5: The City Council declares that nothing within the Union District Plan is intended or shall be interpreted to usurp the jurisdiction and authority of ACHD as defined in chapter 14, Title 40, Idaho Code. Further, pursuant to Section 40-1415, Idaho Code, ACHD has authority over the planning, location, design, construction, reconstruction, and maintenance of the City rights of way and accompanying curbs, gutters, culverts, sidewalks, paved medians, bulkheads, and retaining walls. In the planning process, ACHD shall take into consideration the principles contained in the Plan. SECTION 6: No direct or collateral action challenging the Union District Plan shall be brought prior to the effective date of this Ordinance or after the elapse of thirty (30) days from and after the effective date of this Ordinance adopting the Union District Plan. SECTION 7: Upon the effective date of this Ordinance, the City Clerk is authorized and directed to transmit to the County Auditor and Ada County Assessor, and to the appropriate officials of Ada County Board of County Commissioners, City of Meridian, Ada County Highway District, Joint School District No 2, Ada County Ambulance/EMS, Meridian Cemetery District, College of Western Idaho, Meridian Library District, Mosquito Abatement District, the Western Ada Recreation District, and the State Tax Commission a copy of this Ordinance, a copy of the legal description of the boundaries of the Revenue Allocation Area, and a map or plat indicating the boundaries of the Project Area. SECTION 8: The City Council hereby finds and declares that the Revenue Allocation Area as defined in the Union District Plan, the equalized assessed valuation of which the City Council hereby determines is in and is part of the Union District Plan is likely to increase as a result of the initiation and completion of urban renewal projects pursuant to the UnionDistrictPlan. SECTION 9: The City Council hereby approves and adopts the following statement policy relating to the appointment of City Council members as members of the Agency's Board of Commissioners: If any City Council members are appointed to the Board, they are not acting in an ex officio capacity but, rather, as private citizens who, although they are also members of the City Council, are exercising their independent judgment as private citizens when they sit on the Board.

Due to the current COVID-19 outbreak and associated quarantine, Staff is including analysis within this memo that otherwise would be shared and explained during the meeting. City Staff will be in virtual attendance at the April 16th Planning & Zoning Commission meeting to give a brief report and summary and to answer any questions, but does not intend to get into many details; this memo should be relied on heavily for Staff s analysis. Application of the City's Comprehensive Plan(Plan)to the proposed Union District area (see Attachment A) is very relevant. Every major theme (chapter) in the Plan ranging from economic development and land use to historic preservation and transportation contain policies that are directly applicable. Additionally, the Comprehensive Plan adopts other documents by reference, for inclusion in consideration of land use decisions and to direct staff activities. Many of the referenced documents are relevant both in geographic area and to the described implementation strategies and goals in the Union District Plan. The following analysis describes the associated text, policies, and referenced plans. EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 130 of 293 Analysis Plan Text The implementation strategies and goals stated in the Union District Plan clearly describe activities aimed at stimulating private development through the reduction of blight and the construction or community improvements. Some of the listed activities include: design and construction of infrastructure improvements; acquisition or support in rehabilitation of real property; financial assistance for business; advanced funding for development; and public- private partnership in the construction of a new Community Center. See pages 3-4 and 9-10 of the plan for how the goals of the plan will be achieved. The Evolving Community section (Chapter 3) of the City's Comprehensive Plan, defines future land use typologies. The description for Old Town, the adopted future land use in and around the project area, states: This designation includes the historic downtown and the true community center. The boundary of the Old Town district predominantly follows Meridian's historic plat boundaries. In several areas, both sides of a street were incorporated into the boundary to encourage similar uses and complimentary design of the facing houses and buildings. Sample uses include offices, retail and lodging, theatres, restaurants, and service retail for surrounding residents and visitors. A variety of residential uses are also envisioned and could include reuse of existing buildings, new construction of multi family residential over ground floor retail or office uses. The City has developed specific architectural standards for Old Town and other traditional neighborhood areas. Pedestrian amenities are emphasized in Old Town via streetscape standards. Additional public and quasi public amenities and outdoor gathering area are encouraged. Future planning in Old Town will be reviewed in accordance with Destination Downtown, a visioning document for redevelopment in Downtown Meridian. Please see Chapter 2 Premier Community for more information on Destination Downtown. Sample zoning include O-T. The Old Town future land use designation is the most diverse in the City's land use portfolio, with the greatest combined range of residential and non-residential uses and no caps on density or intensity of developed uses. Further, the City's complimentary zoning, also named Old Town (O-T), has zero setbacks for structures, relaxed parking requirements, and reduced landscape setbacks (aside from pedestrian streetscape infrastructure.) Interestingly, the Union District Plan makes numerous references to the City's planning documents dictating density and character elements, but it is Destination Downtown, developed by the Meridian Development Corporation(MDC), that dictates general uses, building mass and character, and intensity of developments. The City has adopted Destination Downtown by reference, and supports MDC's plan by adopting an eclectic and flexible future land use and zoning designation. With Destination Downtown nearing a decade of use however, existing conditions varying in several significant areas, many new stakeholders and community groups, and with the downtown urban renewal district expiring in the upcoming years, it is likely the plan is nearing the end of its relevancy. Plan Policies The following text relates to the policies found throughout the major themes in the Comprehensive Plan(Chapters 2 through 6). Not all policies must be addressed or apply to the Union District Plan, but staff has tried to include all downtown related policies below. Additional context for these policies can be found in the Related Policies section(see Attachment B), which EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 131 of 293 includes parent Goals and Objectives, for the referenced policies. Note: the first number of a policy references the Chapter in which the policy can be found. • 2.02.01E, Encourage the development of high quality, dense residential and mixed use areas near in and around Downtown, near employment, large shopping centers,public open spaces and parks, and along major transportation corridors, as shown on the Future Land Use Map. A new urban renewal district focused on infrastructure (parking, utilities, etc.)would provide the tools necessary to support and encourage redevelopment in an area of town that suffers from significant blight. • 2.02.02B, Consider incentives such as density bonuses, reduced open space requirements, and reduced fees for infill development in key areas near existing services. A new urban renewal district could provide for incentives such as infrastructure and infrastructure reimbursement through tax increment financing (TIF). • 2.02.02C, Support infill development that does not negatively impact the abutting, existing development. Infill projects in Downtown should develop at higher densities, irrespective of existing development. The Union District Plan does not address how transitions between existing and proposed redevelopment may take place, but could do so transparently as part of negotiations for partnerships with the Urban Renewal District, and through public hearing and administrative approvals with the City. Staff will review future projects for consistency with this policy. The Union District Plan addresses density increases throughout the document. • 2.02.02D, Apply appropriate design and construction standards to infill development in order to reduce adverse impacts to existing development. The Union District Plan makes specific references to establishing performance criteria and design standards in goal `i'(page 4), and duplicated under implementation letter `w' (page H). They state: In conjunction with the City, the establishment and implementation of performance criteria to assure high site design standards and environmental quality and other design elements which provide unity and integrity to the entire Project Area, including commitment of funds for planning studies, achieving high standards of development, and leveraging such development to achieve public objectives and efficient use of scarce resources. This is critical work to be done proactively, as the City does not have any site or building design standards specific to Downtown (just general traditional neighborhood design), or for policies related to historic preservation and enhancements. NOTE:Development of design standards downtown has not been preliminarily identified as a high priority project for the City. • 2.09.01B, Establish incentives to develop gathering spaces and civic facilities within Downtown. A new urban renewal district could provide for incentives such as gathering spaces and civic facilities, which could be reimbursed through tax increment financing(TIF). Part of the Union District Plan specifically references a public private partnership, including the City, for the construction of a community center. • 2.09.01 C, Work towards mitigating and removing floodplain issues around Downtown. There is no floodplain in this area of Downtown. EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 132 of 293 • 2.O9.O2A, Actively implement action items in the Destination Downtown Plan. Destination Downtown was created by the Meridian Development Corporation for the downtown Urban Renewal District, and adopted by the City. This plan was extremely broad in land use diversity, area, and scope. The project area for the Union District Plan is included within the Destination Downtown area, but previous efforts failed to eliminate blight that this new district seeks to address. With the existing downtown urban renewal set to expire in the coming years, this new district is an opportunity for more renewed and focused efforts, both geographically and in implementation activities. • 2.O9.O2B, Pursue grants and public-private partnerships to enhance Downtown. A new urban renewal district could both provide grants and make more competitive applications for grants, by utilizing a dedicated funding source such as tax increment financing(TIF). • 2.O9.O2C, Develop programs with local partners to expand art, cultural, and educational facilities in Downtown. There are several references to these activities and facilities throughout the Union District Plan. Art may be done both as public private partnership, or independent of development, and educational facilities are described in several areas including implementation strategies (letter `o). It should be noted that the Union District Plan describes the Urban Renewal District's ability to make decisions related to public art independent of the Meridian Arts Commission, which to date has focused a great deal of time, money, and energy in downtown. Staff recommends caution with multiple independent entities exercising self determination of overlapping activities. • 2.09.O2D, Develop and support regular cultural activities and events Downtown, in partnership with the Downtown Business Association and other organizations. Supporting events is not described within the Union District Plan directly, but supporting the development of locations for these to occur is addressed. • 2.O9.O2F, Support a compatible mix of land uses Downtown that activate the area during day and night. Supporting specific uses at discrete times of the day is not described within the Union District Plan directly, but supporting the development of mixed-use locations,facilities, and supporting infrastructure (e.g. —parking) is discussed. • 2.O9.O2G, Implement the City of Meridian Design Standards and City of Meridian Architectural Standards Manual to ensure that Downtown remains the historic center for mixed-use tourism, business, retail, residential, and governmental activities. The City has land use authority over the project area and implementation of design and architectural standards must be met. However, these standards, while allowing for these types of uses/attractions, does not necessarily cater to or encourage them. Additional work is necessary if downtown specific and historical context is desired. The Union District Plan speaks to this work under goal `i'(page 4), and duplicated under implementation letter `w' (page 11). • 2.09.O3B, Promote Ten Mile, Downtown, and The Village as centers of activity and growth. The Union District Plan seeks to redevelop some of the most blighted property in the City, at the heart and center of the Downtown area, and which is otherwise adjacent to some of the most iconic and well used public spaces outside of traditional parks. By successfully EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 133 of 293 redeveloping this highly visible blight, Downtown will be well placed to offer and promote a dense concentration ofpublic spaces for activity use by many. • 2.09.03E, Develop concept plans of potential destination activities and promote appropriate development, infill, and redevelopment of activity centers. The Union District Plan does not address this directly, but the intention of the Plan is to support these types of activities through public private partnerships of community facilities. • 3.03.01 E, Encourage infill development. The unstated purpose of the Union District Plan, through virtually all of the goals and implementation strategies, is to encourage infill development through redevelopment of blighted lands and development of community facilities through public private partnerships. • 3.03.03G, Require urban infrastructure be provided for all new developments, including curb and gutter, sidewalks, water and sewer utilities. The City has land use authority over the project area and urban infrastructure will be required with all redevelopment. Further, the Union District Plan calls out specific implementation strategies including road, curb, gutter, streetscape, lighting, stormwater, and others throughout the document(including financial analysis). • 4.04.02A, Identify opportunities for new paths that connect residential neighborhoods and community facilities, such as the library and city hall,parks, schools, athletic facilities, swimming pools, historic districts, the Downtown, as well as other commercial and retail activity centers in Meridian. The City's Pathway Master Plan depicts several options through the project area, and will be required as part of redevelopment of the site. The Union District Plan references pathways both through goals and implementation items. • 4.05.01E, Assess environmental impact of potential new development, infill, and redevelopment. The Union District Plan specifically addresses environmental assessment of brownfield sites, and more generally towards environmental quality and creating standards to maintain environmental quality in coordination with the City (goal letter `i). Outside of floodplain impacts however, the City does not have much in the way of requirements or regulations to this end. • 5.02.01A, Maintain and implement design and building standards for historically significant buildings and resources in Old Town. There are no historically significant structures within the project area. The Union District Plan emphasizes consideration for the historic character and quality of the area. Stronger efforts by designers to this end are needed, or standards created, to protect and enhance the general area prior to design and permit approval for structures in this area, if this policy statement is a priority. It would be difficult to suggest that preliminary concepts for structures on either the Civic Block or Union Pacific property compliment or lend aid to any historic themes in the Old Town area. The bulk and mass of concept buildings could easily overwhelm and minimize other historic structures in the area without further integration of ideas and themes. EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 134 of 293 • 6.01.01 C, Improve ingress and egress opportunities for all modes of transportation in Downtown. The Union District Plan references improvements to roads, sidewalks,pathways, and a railroad crossing, as projects for implementation. Improvements to East 3rd Street specifically would greatly enhance bicycle access into downtown, and provide more options for local residents and stakeholders. • 6.O1.O2D, Consider needed sidewalk, pathway, landscaping, and lighting improvements with all land use decisions. The City has land use authority over the project area and redevelopment will be required to provide infrastructure. The Union District Plan also specifically references all of these elements as projects for implementation. • 6.01.021, Pursue the extension of Idaho Ave. and/or Broadway Ave. to Commercial Dr. and the extension of East 3rd St. from Fairview Ave. to Pine Ave. in Downtown. While not directly referencing the extension of these streets,proposed implementation (improvement)projects for both Broadway Ave and East 3rd Street would go a long way in highlighting the value of these projects and encouraging their construction. • 6.O1.O2L, Work with ACHD to implement projects from the 2012 Downtown Meridian Neighborhood Pedestrian and Bicycle Plan. While not directly referencing coordination with ACHD on implementation of the 2012 Neighborhood Plan, improvements to East 3rd Street are directly aligned and much needed for north-south bicycle connectivity through Downtown. Neither Meridian Road nor Main Street have dedicated bike facilities, and a safe multi-modal, north-south connection is needed between existing pathway connection on Franklin near Storey Park, and on Pine near Five Mile Creek. EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 135 of 293 Referenced Plans The following plans are adopted by reference in the City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan, and are relevant material to the proposed Union District Plan. • Downtown Meridian Street Cross-section Master Plan Every road within the project area is included within the Downtown Meridian Street Cross- section Master Plan. Adopted in 2014, this document includes cross-section concepts intended to work with minimal impact to available impact, while also serving multiple modes. Vibrant streetscape activity is especially important in the Old Town area, and including the Union District Project area. Connectivity both east-west and north-south through the downtown area is very important. It is particularly important that East 3Yd Street incorporate a pathway element to support connectivity of the City's Pathway Master Plan through downtown, connecting Storey Park to Fairview Avenue. Traffic speeds on Meridian Road are unfriendly to pedestrian, and neither Meridian Road nor Main Street provide safe bicycle connectivity north-south, and there is no other railroad crossing within the downtown area besides East 3rd Street. • Historic Preservation Plan The Historic Preservation Commission and City adopted this plan in 2014. With less than 2.2% of Meridian's housing stock being older than 1960's construction (2017 Existing Conditions Report), and almost all of it consolidated in the Downtown area, there is very limited opportunity for historic preservation outside of agricultural themes in the larger community. Several goals from this plan are relevant to the Union District Plan, including: o Goal I Preserve and enhance Meridian's historical, cultural and agricultural heritage. o Goal 3 Heighten public awareness of historic preservation in the community and improve preservation education efforts for various audiences. o Goal 4 Maintain and strengthen support for historic preservation from individuals, commercial property owners, local organizations and neighborhood groups. These goals for the Commission (and City) are not just about preserving, but also enhancing and generating awareness of Meridian's history. Additional objectives for these goals are described within the plan. • Meridian Rail-With-Trail Action Plan A portion of the project area includes Union Pacific right-of-way that is a part of the Boise cut-off. The Meridian Rail-With-Trail Action Plan identified an opportunity for a Treasure Valley-wide multi-use pathway. This Action Plan has since been supplemented with numerous planning efforts looking at more detailed cross-sections, street crossings, and alternatives. Meridian is actively working to construct certain portions, and part of this network must be constructed within the project area, either along the rail corridor right-of- way or integrated through site planning. EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 136 of 293 • Meridian Parks and Recreation Master Plan One of the projects described in the proposed Union District Plan is the development of a community center as part of the Civic Block project. Objective 4.3 of the Meridian Parks and Recreation Master Plan identifies expanded indoor recreation space as a priority for the community. Pathways are another significant element of this plan, and further emphasizes the demand for connectivity improvements to and through downtown, and the project area. • Meridian Pathways Master Plan The Pathways Master Plan identifies north-south (East 3Yd Street) and east-west (Broadway/Rail with Trail)pathway connections through the project site. This plan works in concert with the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, Meridian Rail-With-Trail Action Plan, and through many of the policies in the Comprehensive Plan. • Downtown Meridian Transportation Management Plan This plan has resulted in significant roadway expansions within Meridian, including the split corridor phase I and phase 2 improvements. Two of the last projects left in the Downtown Meridian Transportation Management Plan are the East 3rd Street connection north of Carlton Ave and south of Badley Ave, and the extension of either Broadway Ave or Idaho Ave east to Commercial Ave (and ultimately to Locust Grove). These projects/connections are essential in supporting the densities necessary for the larger downtown area to be a thriving center of activity. The Union District Plan could benefit both of these streets in close proximity to the areas set for expansion. • Downtown Meridian Neighborhood Pedestrian and Bicycle Plan Developed by ACHD, this plan identified a number of community drive projects to enhance the pedestrian and bicycle connectivity in the area. ACHD has been diligent in programming and constructing these projects, and one of the last significant components is identified sidewalk improvements on East 3Yd Street. There are sidewalk gaps in the project area and the rail crossing is unsafe and outright impassable for some with mobility disabilities. One of the projects in the Union District Plan would include street improvements to East 3Yd Street near Broadway, and including the rail crossing. All of these plans are available on the City's Comprehensive Plan website at: https://meridiancily.oriz/plannin /�compplan/resources. Recommendation Based on the analysis provided in this memo, Staff believes establishing an Urban Renewal District Plan for the Union Block project to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and in the best interest of the City. Accordingly, Staff recommends that the Commission move to approve the two related Resolutions on the meeting agenda as follows: A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION FOR THE CITY OF MERIDIAN,IDAHO,VALIDATING CONFORMITY OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE MERIDIAN REVITALIZATION PLAN WITH THE CITY OF MERIDIAN'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION FOR THE CITY OF MERIDIAN,IDAHO,VALIDATING CONFORMITY OF THE URBAN RENEWAL PLAN FOR THE UNION DISTRICT URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT WITH THE CITY OF MERIDIAN'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN EXHIBIT A TO P&Z RESOLUTION 20-02 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 137 of 293 Attachment A: Union District Area (Urban Renewal District) Future Land Uses I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I J I I I I u I 0 Medium Density Residential Industrial E STATE AVE -- 2 -Civic ® � h , 0 Old Town 1 0 Mixed Use Community ' E PINE=AVE� C 0 y N II IITII = �I I I F V!

Attachments 1 through 5 attached hereto (collectively, the "Plan Attachments") are incorporated herein and shall be considered a part of this Plan. The term "Project"is used herein to describe the overall activities defined in this Plan and conforms to the statutory definition of an urban renewal project. Reference is specifically made to Idaho Code §§ 50-201 S(10) and 50-2903(13) for the various activities contemplated by the term "Project." Such activities include both private and public development of property within the urban renewal area. The term "Project" is not meant to refer to a specific activity or development scheme. The Union District Project Area is also referred to as the"Project Area." This Plan was prepared by the Board of Commissioners (the "Agency Board") of the Meridian Urban Renewal Agency, also known as Meridian Development Corporation (the "Agency"), its consultants and staff and reviewed and recommended by the Agency pursuant to the Idaho Urban Renewal Law of 1965, Chapter 20, Title 50, Idaho Code, as amended (the "Law"), the Local Economic Development Act, Chapter 29, Title 50, Idaho Code, as amended (the "Act"), and all applicable local laws and ordinances. Idaho Code § 50-2905 identifies what information the Plan must include with specificity as follows: (1) A statement describing the total assessed valuation of the base assessment roll of the revenue allocation area and the total assessed valuation of all taxable property within the municipality; (2) A statement listing the kind, number, and Iocation of all proposed public works or improvements within the revenue allocation area; (3) An economic feasibility study; (4) A detailed list of estimated project costs; (5) A fiscal impact statement showing the impact of the revenue allocation area, both until and after the bonds are repaid, upon all taxing districts levying taxes upon property on the revenue allocation area; (6) A description of the methods of financing all estimated project costs and the time when related costs or monetary obligations are to be incurred; (7) A termination date for the plan and the revenue allocation area as provided for in section 50-2903(20), Idaho Code. In determining the termination date, the plan shall recognize that the agency shall receive allocation of revenues in the calendar 1 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 160 of 293 year following the last year of the revenue allocation provision described in the urban renewal plan; and (8) A description of the disposition or retention of any assets of the agency upon the termination date. Provided however,nothing herein shall prevent the agency from retaining assets or revenues generated from such assets as long as the agency shall have resources other than revenue allocation funds to operate and manage such assets. This Plan includes the above information with specificity. The proposed redevelopment of the Project Area as described in this Plan conforms to the City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan (the "Comprehensive Plan"), adopted by the Meridian City Council (the "City Council") on December 17, 2019, by Resolution No. 19-2179. The Agency intends to rely heavily on the City's applicable zoning and design standards. This Plan is subject to the Plan modification limitations and reporting requirements set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2903A. Subject to limited exceptions as set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2903A, if this Plan is modified by City Council ordinance, then the base value for the year immediately following the year in which modification occurs shall include the current year's equalized assessed value of the taxable property in the revenue allocation area, effectively eliminating the Agency's revenue stream. Should the Agency have any outstanding financial obligations, the City shall not adopt an ordinance modifying this Plan unless modification is deemed to have not occurred as provided in Idaho Code § 50- 2903A(1)(a)(i)-(iv) and written consent has been obtained by any creditors, including but not limited to lending institutions and developers who have entered into reimbursement agreements with the Agency. A modification shall not be deemed to occur when "[tjhere is a plan amendment to support growth of an existing commercial or industrial project in an existing revenue allocation area . . . ." Idaho Code § 50-2903A(l)(a)(iv). The proposed development of the Project Area is primarily a commercial and/or industrial project. Any adjustment to the list of improvements and/or revenue stream to support growth of the proposed commercial and/or industrial project is not a modification under Idaho Code § 50-2903A. Further, a modification shall not be deemed to occur when i{[tjhere is a plan amendment to make technical or ministerial changes to a plan that does not involve an increase in the use of revenues allocated to the agency." Idaho Code § 50-2903A(1)(a)(i). Annual adjustments as more specifically set forth in the Agency's annual budget will be required to account for more/less estimated revenue and prioritization of projects. Any adjustments for these stated purposes are technical and ministerial and are not modifications under Idaho Code § 50-2903A. This Plan provides the Agency with powers, duties, and obligations to implement and further the program generally formulated in this Plan for the redevelopment, rehabilitation, and 2 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 161 of 293 revitalization of the area within the boundaries of the Project Area. The Agency retains all powers allowed by the Law and Act. This Plan presents a process and a basic framework within which plan implementation, including contracts, agreements and ancillary documents will be presented and by which tools are provided to the Agency to fashion, develop, and proceed with plan implementation. The Plan has balanced the need for flexibility over the twenty (20)-year timeframe of the Plan to implement the improvements identified in Attachment 5, with the need for specificity as required by Idaho Code § 50-2905. The Plan narrative addresses the required elements of a plan set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2905(1), (5), (7) and (8). Attachment 5, together with the Plan narrative, meets the specificity requirement for the required plan elements set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2905(2)-(6), recognizing that actual Agency expenditures are prioritized each fiscal year during the required annual budgeting process. Allowed projects are those activities which comply with the Law and the Act and meet the overall objectives of this Plan. The public-private relationship is crucial in the successful development and redevelopment of the Project Area. Typically, the public will fund enhanced public improvements like utilities, streets, and sidewalks which, in turn, establish the necessary infrastructure to support adjacent private investment, which in this case includes industrial and commercial facilities, The purposes of the Law and Act will be attained through, and the major goals of this Plan, are: a. The installation and construction of public improvements, improvements to existing roadways and intersections, including the installation of traffic signals; installation of curbs, gutters and streetscapes,which for purposes of this Plan, the term "streetscapes" includes sidewalks, lighting, landscaping, benches, bike racks, public art and similar amenities between the curb and right of way line; installation and/or improvements to fiber optic facilities; improvements to public utilities including water and sewer improvements, and fire protection systems; removal, burying, or relocation of overhead utilities; extension of electrical distribution lines and transformers; improvement of irrigation and drainage ditches and laterals; and improvement of storm drainage facilities; b. The planning, design and construction of a community center, useable public gathering space and a public structured parking facility or facilities; c. The planning, design and construction of a private development multi-purpose commercial and residential facility, and a public surface parking lot; d. The replanning, redesign, and development of undeveloped or underdeveloped areas which are stagnant or improperly utilized because of unusual conditions of title, underserved utilities, and other-site conditions; 3 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 162 of 293 e. The strengthening of the economic base of the Project Area and the community by the installation of needed public improvements to stimulate new private development providing employment and economic growth; f The provision of adequate land for open space, street rights-of-way and pedestrian rights-of-way, including pathways; g. The reconstruction and improvement of street corridors to allow traffic flows to move through the Project Area along with the accompanying utility connections, through the Project Area; h. The provision of public service utilities, which are necessary to the development of the Project Area, such as water system improvements, sewer system improvements and improvements to storm drainage facilities; i. In conjunction with the City, the establishment and implernentation of performance criteria to assure high site design standards and environmental quality and other design elements which provide unity and integrity to the entire Project Area, including commitment of firnds for planning studies, achieving high standards of development, and leveraging such development to achieve public objectives and efficient use of scarce resources; j. The strengthening of the tax base by encouraging private development, thus increasing the assessed valuation of properties within the Project Area as a whole and benefiting the various taxing districts in which the urban renewal area is located; and k. The funding of necessary public infrastructure to accommodate both public and private development. 101 General Procedures of the Agency The Agency is a public body, corporate and politic, as defined and described under the Law and the Act. The Agency is also governed by its bylaws as authorized by the Law and adopted by the Agency. Under the Law, the Agency is governed by the Idaho open meeting law, the Public Records Act and the Ethics in Government Act of 2015, Chapters 1, 2 and 4 of Title 74, Idaho Code; reporting requirements pursuant to Idaho Code §§ 67-450B, 67-450E, 50-2903A and 50-2913; and the competitive bidding requirements under Chapter 28, Title 67,Idaho Code, as well as other procurement or other public improvement delivery methods. Subject to limited exceptions, the Agency shall conduct all meetings in open session and allow meaningful public input as mandated by the issue considered or by any statutory or regulatory provision. 4 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 163 of 293 The Agency may adopt separate policy statements. Any modification to any policy statement is a technical or ministerial adjustment and is not a modification to this Plan under Idaho Code § 50-2903A. 102 Procedures Necessary to Meet State and Local Requirements: Conformance with Idaho Code Sections 50-2008 and 50-2906 Idaho law requires that the City Council, by resolution, must determine a geographic area be a deteriorated area or a deteriorating area, or a combination thereof, and designate such area as appropriate for an urban renewal project prior to preparation of an urban renewal plan. A consultant was retained to study a proposed project area and prepare an eligibility report. The area studied was originally reviewed for eligibility in 2001, and was deannexed from the boundaries of the existing Meridian Revitalization Plan Urban Renewal Project, adopted by City Council Ordinance No. 02-987, on December 3, 2002 (the "Downtown District Plan"), by the First Amendment to the Downtown District Plan, adopted by City Council Ordinance No. on 2020. The eligibility report was submitted to the Agency. The Agency accepted the eligibility report by Agency Resolution No. 20-003 on February 26, 2020, and thereafter submitted the eligibility report to the City Council for its consideration. The area studied was deemed by the City Council to be a deteriorating area and/or a deteriorated area and therefore eligible for an urban renewal project by adoption of Resolution No. 20-2188 on March 10, 2020. With the adoption of Resolution No. 20-2188, the City Council authorized the preparation of an urban renewal plan. The Plan was prepared and submitted to the Agency for its review and approval. The Agency approved the Plan by the adoption of Agency Resolution No. on , 2020, and submitted the Plan to the City Council with its recommendation for adoption. In accordance with the Law, this Plan was submitted to the Planning and Zoning Commission of the City. After consideration of the Plan, the Commission,by resolution, reported to the City Council that this Plan is in conformity with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Pursuant to the Law and Act, the City Council having published due notice thereof, a public hearing was held on this Plan. Notice of the hearing was published in the Meridian Press, a newspaper having general circulation in the City. The City Council adopted this Plan on [ _j, 2020, by Ordinance No. r 103 History and Current Conditions of the Area The Project Area is geographically discrete and contains approximately 16 acres of underdeveloped land and right-of-way near the City's downtown core and is generally bounded by E. Idaho Avenue to the north, E, Third Street to the east, a portion of the railroad right-of-way 5 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 164 of 293 to the south and N. Main Street to the west. The Project Area is zoned Old Town (OT), which is intended to encourage a "centralized activity center and to encourage its renewal, revitalization and growth as the public, quasi-public, cultural, financial and recreational center of the City. Public and quasi-public uses integrated with general business, and medium high to high density residential is encouraged to provide the appropriate mix and intensity of activities necessary to establish a truly urban City center." Currently, a significant portion of the Project Area is under the ownership of public entities and older commercial buildings on the northerly end of the Project Area have been converted to public use as adjunct library space and an interim community center. This portion of the Project Area also includes a small, City park. The southerly end of the Project Area is occupied by older dilapidated structures located on large parcels and previously used for the sale and storage of building materials. This area also includes a portion of railroad right-of-way. The Project Area includes a total of fifteen (15) tax parcels. Despite the increasing development in the City, the Project Area has remained virtually unchanged over the last nineteen (19) years and does not reflect the vision for the area provided in City planning documents. While generally the roadways surrounding the block north of E. Broadway Avenue have been improved to current City standards with curbs, gutters, street lighting and storm drainage facilities, the area south of E. Broadway Avenue requires further investment in the public improvements. A portion of the south side of E. Broadway Avenue remains unimproved as does the east side of E. Yd Street. The west side of E. Yd Street south of E. Broadway Avenue has curb and gutters in place with an adjacent narrow sidewalk,which is interrupted by several unused curb cuts. The sidewalk appears unmaintained and is of insufficient width to accommodate the high-density activity envisioned in City planning documents. Improvements to the pedestrian facilities will serve the increased number of pedestrians anticipated in the Project Area and will help with connectivity. While water lines serve the Project Area, the water line located on the south side of the railroad property does not extend the fiill length of the property and therefore is not looped into the Main Street line. Further, the water main located in E. .3 Street will likely need to be upsized to a 12"main to serve the Project Area. These deficiencies are critical and require remediation to support the necessary fire flows required for increased density in the Project Area. A significant impediment to development has been the railroad parcels with attendant title issues. Multiple attempts at conveyance and development have occurred over the last several decades; however, the unusual conditions of title have likely stalled development, resulting in vacant, underutilized parcels. The E. Yd Street railroad crossing is currently protected only by stop signs. With increased density, additional protections at the crossing may be needed as the rail line is active and serves as the primary transit corridor for freight movements from Boise and Meridian to the railroad mainline connection in Nampa. Finally, the Project Area includes a portion of an open ditch lateral, the Hunter Lateral, which crosses E. Yd Street near the intersection with Broadway. As the lateral turns north across 6 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 165 of 293 E. Broadway Avenue, the lateral is piped and undergrounded. The open ditch in this area creates safety concerns for pedestrians. The Plan proposes improvements to public infrastructure and other publicly-owned assets throughout the Project Area, creating the framework for the development of a mixed-use, retail, office, residential project, including the development of a community/recreation center, as well as other public facilities and improvements, including but not limited to streets, streetscapes, water and sewer improvements, environmental and floodptain remediation/site preparation, public parking, other community facilities,parks, and pedestrian/bike paths and trails. The Project Area is underdeveloped and is not being used to its highest and best use due to the presence of a substantial number of deteriorating structures, deterioration of site, age and obsolescence, a predominance of defective or inadequate street layout, faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility or usefiulness, insanitary or unsafe conditions, and defective or unusual conditions of title. The foregoing conditions have resulted in economic underdevelopment of the area and has arrested or impaired growth in the Project Area. The preparation and approval of an urban renewal plan, including a revenue allocation financing provision, gives the City additional resources to solve the public infrastructure problems in this area. Revenue allocation financing should help to improve the situation. In effect, property taxes generated by new developments within the area may be used by the Agency to finance a variety of needed public improvements and facilities. Finally, some of the new developments may also generate new jobs in the community that would, in tuna., benefit area residents. It is unlikely individual developers will take on the prohibitive costs of constructing the necessary infrastructure in the Project Area without the ability of revenue allocation to help offset at least some of these costs. But for urban renewal and revenue allocation financing the proposed commercial and community developments and related public improvements would not occur. 104 Purpose of Activities Attachment 5 includes identification of the proposed public improvements necessary for the contemplated development in the Project Area with specificity. The description of activities, public improvements, and the estimated costs of those items are intended to create an outside limit of the Agency's activity. Due to the inherent difficulty in projecting future levy rates, future taxable value, and the future costs of construction, the Agency reserves the right to: a. Change funding amounts from one Project to another b. To re- prioritize the Projects described in this Plan and the PIan Attachments c. Retain flexibility in funding the various activities in order to best meet the Plan and the needs of the Project Area. d. Retain flexibility in determining whether to use the Agency's funds or funds generated by other sources. 7 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 166 of 293 e. Alter the location of proposed improvements set forth in Attachment 5 to support development when it occurs. The information included in Attachment 5 presents realistic alternative development scenarios recognizing it is difficult to project with any certainty where the improvements will be sited until any future projects submit plans to the City for design review and permitting. The Agency intends to discuss and negotiate with any owner or developer of the parcels within the Project Area seeping Agency assistance during the duration of the Plan and Project Area. During such negotiation, the Agency will determine, on an individual basis, the eligibility of the activities sought for Agency funding, the amount the Agency may fund by way of percentage or other criteria including the need for such assistance. The Agency will also take into account the amount of revenue allocation proceeds estimated to be generated from the developer's activities. The Agency also reserves the right to establish by way of policy, its funding percentage or participation,which would apply to all developers and owners and may prioritize certain projects or types of projects. Throughout this Plan, there are references to Agency activities, Agency funding, and the acquisition, development, and contribution of public improvements. Such references do not necessarily constitute a Rill, final, and formal commitment by the Agency but,rather, grant to the Agency the discretion to participate as stated subject to achieving the objectives of this Plan and provided such activity is deemed eligible under the Law and the Act. The activities listed in Attachment 5 will be determined or prioritized as the overall Project Area develops and through the annual budget setting process. The activities listed in Attachment 5 are also prioritized by way of importance to the Agency by the amounts funded, and by year of funding, with earlier years reflecting the more important activities, achievement of higher objectives, long term goals, and commitments. The projected timing of funding is primarily a function of market conditions and the availability of financial resources but is also strategic, considering the timing of private development partnership opportunities and the ability of certain strategic activities to stimulate development at given points in time within the planned 20-year period of the urban renewal district and revenue allocation area. The Study (Attachment 5) has described a list of prioritized public improvements and other related activities with an estimated cost in 2020 dollars of approximately $15,040,000.00 for improvements related to construction of a community center, public open spaces, construction of a public parking structure or structures and/or public surface parking facilities, and public improvements related to private development of mixed-use commercial, office, and residential buildings. This amount does not take into account inflationary factors, such as increasing construction costs,which would increase that figure depending on when the owner, developer and/or Agency is able to develop, construct or initiate those activities. The Study has concluded the capacity of revenue allocation funds through the term of the Plan based on the assumed development projects and assessed value increases will likely generate an estimated $16,286,437.00.

As set forth in greater detail in Section 103, the Project Area has a history of stagnant growth and development compared to the greater downtown area of the City based on deteriorated or deteriorating conditions that have arrested or impaired growth in the Project Area primarily attributed to: underdeveloped properties; inadequate pedestrian and bicycle connectivity and mobility; the presence of a substantial number of deteriorating structures; deterioration of site; age and obsolescence; a predominance of defective or inadequate street layout; faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility or use-fulness; unsanitary or unsafe conditions; and defective or very unusual conditions of title. The Plan for the Project Area is a proposal to work in partnership with public and private entities to improve, develop, and grow the economy within the Project Area by the implementation of a strategy and program set forth in Section 301. The provisions of this Plan are applicable to all public and private property in the Project Area. The provisions of the Plan shall be interpreted and applied as objectives and goals, recognizing the need for flexibility in interpretation and implementation, while at the same time not in any way abdicating the rights and privileges of the property owners which are vested in the present and future zoning classifications of the properties. All development under an owner participation agreement shall conform to those standards specified in Section 303 of this Plan. It is recognized that the Ada County Highway District has exclusive jurisdiction over all public street rights-of-way within the Project Area, except for state highways. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to alter the powers of the Ada County Highway District pursuant to Title 40, Idaho Code. This Plan must be practical in order to succeed. Particular attention has been paid to how it can be implemented, given the changing nature of market conditions. Transforming the Project Area into a vital, thriving part of the community requires a proactive strategy. The following represents the key elements of that effort: a. Initiate simultaneous projects designed to revitalize the Project Area. From street and utility improvements to significant new public or private development, the Agency plays a key role in creating the necessary momentum to get and keep things going. b. Develop new mixed-use residential, commercial, and retail areas including the development of a community and recreation facility, as well as encourage other economic development opportunities. 12 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 171 of 293 C. Secure and improve certain public open space in critical areas. d. Initiate projects designed to encourage affordable and workforce housing options and increased transportation and mobility options. Without direct public intervention, the Project Area has and could conceivably remain unchanged and in a deteriorated and/or deteriorating condition for the next twenty (20)years. The Plan creates the necessary flexible framework for the Project Area to support the City's economic development while complying with the "specificity" requirement set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2905. Land use in the Project Area may be modified to the extent that the existing brownftelds, and underutilized,underdeveloped, deteriorated, deteriorating and vacant land, and land now devoted to scattered inconsistent uses may be converted to a tnixed-use, commercial,retail, and residential area, including a community recreation facility,public open spaces, and a public parking structure and/or a public surface parking lot. In implementing the activities described in this Plan, the Agency shall give due consideration to the provision of adequate park, open space and community and recreational areas and facilities that may be desirable for neighborhood improvement, with special consideration for the health, safety, and welfare of residents in the general vicinity of the Project Area covered by the Plan, recognizing the mixed-use nature of the Project Area. 303 Participation Opportunities and Participation Agreements The Agency may enter into various development participation agreements with any existing or future owners of property in the Project Area, in the event such a property owner seeks and/or receives assistance from the Agency in the development and/or redevelopment of the property. The teen "participation agreement" is intended to include all participation agreements with a property owner, including reimbursement agreements, grant agreements, disposition and development agreements or owner participation agreements. In that event, the Agency may allow for an existing or fiiture owner of property to remove the property and/or structure fi-om future Agency acquisition subject to entering into an owner participation agreement. It is anticipated the Agency will enter into an owner participation agreement with the current owner/developer of property within the Project Area and/or its related entities. The Agency may also enter into owner participation agreements with other future owners and developers within the Project Area throughout the duration of this Plan in order to implement the infrastructure improvements set forth in this Plan. Each structure and building in the Project Area to be rehabilitated or to be constructed as a condition of the owner participation agreement between the Agency and the owner pursuant to this Plan will be considered to be satisfactorily rehabilitated and constructed pursuant to the requirements of the Law and Act, if the rehabilitated or new structure meets the standards set forth in an executed owner participation agreement and complies with the applicable provisions of this Plan, local codes and ordinances and the Idaho Code. 13 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 172 of 293 All owner parligWationggreernents will address development timing,justification and eligibility of project costs, and achievement of the objectives of the PIan. The Agency shall retain its discretion in the funding level of its participation. Obligations under owner participation agreements shall terminate no later than the termination date of this Plan— December 31, 2040. The Agency shall retain its discretion to negotiate an earlier date to accomplish all obligations under any owner participation agreement. In all owner participation agreements, participants who retain real property shall be required to join in the recordation of such documents as may be necessary to make the provisions of this Plan applicable to their properties. Whether or not a participant enters into an owner participation agreement with the Agency, the provisions of this Plan are applicable to all public and private property in the Project Area. In the event a participant under an owner participation agreement fails or refuses to rehabilitate, develop, use, and maintain its real property pursuant to this Plan and an owner participation agreement, the real property or any interest therein may be acquired by the Agency in accordance with Section 305.1 of this Plan and sold or leased for rehabilitation or development in accordance with this Plan. Owner participation agreements may be used to implement the following objectives: Encouraging property owners to revitalize and/or remediate deteriorated areas or deteriorating areas of their parcels to accelerate development in the Project Area. e Subject to the limitations of the Law and the Act, providing incentives to property owners to encourage utilization and expansion of existing permitted uses during the transition period to prevent a decline in the employment base and a proliferation of vacant and deteriorated parcels in the Project Area during the extended development and/or redevelopment of the Project Area. • To accommodate improvements and expansions allowed by City regulations and generally consistent with this Plan for the Project Area. • Subject to the limitations of the Law and Act,providing incentives to improve nonconforming properties so they implement the design guidelines contained in this Plan to the extent possible and to encourage an orderly transition from nonconforming to conforming uses through the term of the Plan. • Provide for advance funding by the developer/owner participant of those certain public improvements related to or needed for the private development and related to the construction and certain public improvements related to the community/recreation facility,public open spaces, and public parking structures and/or surface lots. In that event, the Agency will agree as set out in the owner participation agreement to reimburse a portion of, or all of, the costs of public 14 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 173 of 293 improvements identified in the participation agreement from the revenue allocation generated by the private development. 304 Cooperation with Public Bodies Certain public bodies are authorized by state law to aid and cooperate,with or without consideration, in the planning, undertaking, construction, or operation of this Project.

A balancing of the needs of proposed and potential new developments for adequate pedestrian and vehicular access (including cars,trucks, bicycles, etc.), vehicular parking, and delivery loading docks with the similar needs of any existing developments permitted to remain. Such balancing shall take into consideration the rights of existing owners and tenants under the rules for owner and tenant participation adopted by the Agency for the Project and any participation agreements executed thereunder; b. The requirements imposed by such factors as topography, traffic safety, and aesthetics; and C. The potential need to serve not only the Project Area and new or existing developments, but to also serve areas outside the Project Area by providing convenient and efficient vehicular access and movement. The public rights-of-way may be used for vehicular and/or pedestrian traffic, as well as for public improvements, public and private utilities, and activities typically found in public rights-of-way. 403 Other Public, Semi-Public, Institutional, and Nonprofit Uses The Agency is also authorized to permit the maintenance, establishment, or enlargement of public, semi-public, institutional, or nonprofit uses, including park and recreational facilities; educational, fraternal, employee; philanthropic and charitable institutions; utilities; governmental facilities; railroad rights-of-way and equipment; and facilities of other similar associations or organizations. All such uses shall, to the extent possible, conform.to the provisions of this Plan applicable to the uses in the specific area involved. The Agency may impose such other reasonable requirements and/or restrictions as may be necessary to protect the development and use of the Project Area, 404 Interim Uses Pending the ultimate development of land by developers and participants, the Agency is authorized to use or allow the use of any land in the Project Area for interim uses that are not in conformity with the uses permitted in this Plan. However, any interim use must comply with applicable City Code. 405 Development in the Project Area Subject to the Plan All real property in the Project Area, under the provisions of either a disposition and development agreement or an owner participation agreement, is made subject to the controls and requirements of this Plan, No such real property shall be developed, rehabilitated, or otherwise 23 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 182 of 293 changed after the date of the adoption of this Plan, except in conformance with the provisions of this Plan. 406 Construction Shall Comply with Applicable Federal, State, and Local Laws and Ordinances and Agency Development Standards All construction in the Project Area shall comply with all applicable state laws, the Meridian City Code, as may be amended from time to time, and any applicable City Council ordinances pending codification, including but not limited to, regulations concerning the type, size, density, and height of buildings; open space, landscaping, light, air, and privacy; the undergrounding of utilities; limitation or prohibition of development that is incompatible with the surrounding area by reason of appearance, traffic, smoke, glare, noise, odor, or similar factors; parcel subdivision; off-street loading and off-street parking requirements. In addition to the Meridian City Code, ordinances, or other requirements governing development in the Project Area, additional specific perfor7riance and development standards may be adopted by the Agency to control and direct redevelopment activities in the Project Area in the event of a disposition and development agreement or owner participation agreement. 407 Minor Variations Under exceptional circumstances, the Agency, in its discretion, is authorized to allow a variation from the limits,restrictions, and controls established by this Plan. In order to allow such variation, the Agency must determine that the variation is not contrary to the objectives of this Plan, is not materially detrimental to the public interest and is not contrary to Idaho law. No variation shall be granted which permits other than a minor departure from the provisions of this Plan. In allowing any such variation, the Agency shall impose such conditions as are necessary to protect the public peace, health, safety, or welfare and to assure compliance with the purposes of the Plan. Any variation allowed by the Agency hereunder shall not supersede any other approval required under City codes and ordinances and shall not be considered a modification to the Plan. 408 Design for Development under a Disposition and Development Agreement or Owner Participation Agreement Within the limits,restrictions, and controls established in this Plan, the Agency is authorized to incorporate heights of buildings, density, land coverage, setback requirements, design criteria, traffic circulation, traffic access, and other development and design controls necessary for proper development of both private and public areas within the Project Area as conditions of approval in applicable Agency agreements, including but not limited to disposition and development agreements and owner participation agreements. Any development must also comply with the City's zoning ordinance regarding heights, setbacks, density and other like standards. ?4 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 183 of 293 In the case of property which is the subject of a disposition and development agreement or an owner participation agreement with the Agency, no new improvement shall be constructed, and no existing improvement shall be substantially modified, altered, repaired, or rehabilitated, except in accordance with this Plan. Under those agreements the architectural, landscape, and site plans shall be submitted to the Agency and approved in writing by the Agency. One of the objectives of this Plan is to create an attractive and pleasant environment in the Project Area. Therefore, such plans shall give consideration to good design, open space, and other amenities to enhance the aesthetic quality of the Project Area. The Agency shall find that any approved plans do comply with this Plan. The Agency reserves the right to impose such design standards on an ad hoc, case by case basis through the approval process of the owner participation agreement or disposition and development agreement. Any change to such approved design must be consented to by the Agency and such consent may be conditioned upon reduction of Agency's financial participation towards the Project. In the event the Agency adopts design standards or controls related to receipt of assistance from the Agency, those provisions will thereafter apply to each site or portion thereof in the Project Area. Those controls and standards will be implemented through the provisions of any disposition and development agreement or owner participation agreement. These controls arc in addition to any standards and provisions of any applicable City building or zoning ordinances; provided, however, each and every development shall comply with all applicable City zoning and building ordinance. 409 Nonconforming Uses This Section applies to property owners seeking assistance fiom the Agency regarding their property. The Agency may allow an existing use to remain in an existing building and site usage in good condition,which use does not conform. to the provisions of this Plan, provided that such use is generally compatible with existing and proposed developments and uses in the Project Area. The owner of such a property must be willing to enter into an owner participation agreement and agree to the imposition of such reasonable restrictions as may be necessary to protect the development and use of the Project Area. The Agency may authorize additions, alterations,repairs, or other improvements in the Project Area for uses which do not conform to the provisions of this Plan where such improvements are within a portion of the Project Area where, in the determination of the Agency, such improvements would be compatible with surrounding Project uses and development. All nonconfonnimrg uses shall also comply with the City codes and ordinances. 25 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 184 of 293 500 METHODS OF FINANCING THE PROJECT 501 General Description of the Proposed Financing Methods The Agency is authorized to finance this Project with revenue allocation fiends, financial assistance from the City (loans, grants, other financial assistance), state of Idaho, federal government or other public entities, interest income, developer advanced funds, donations, loans from private financial institutions (bonds, notes, line of credit), the lease or sale of Agency- owned property,public parking revenue, or any other available source, public or private, including assistance from any taxing district or any public entity. The Agency is also authorized to obtain advances, lines of credit, borrow funds, and create indebtedness in carrying out this Plan. The Agency may also consider an inter-fund transfer from other urban renewal project areas. The principal and interest on such advances, fiends, and indebtedness may be paid from any funds available to the Agency. The City, as it is able, may also supply additional assistance through City loans and grants for various public facilities. As allowed by law and subject to restrictions as are unposed by law, the Agency is authorized to issue notes or bonds from time to time, if it deems appropriate to do so, in order to finance all or any part of the Project. Neither the members of the Agency nor any persons executing the bonds are liable personally on the bonds by reason of their issuance. 502 Revenue Allocation Financing Provisions The Agency hereby adopts revenue allocation financing provisions as authorized by the Act, effective retroactively to January 1, 2020. These revenue allocation provisions shall apply to all taxing districts which are located in or overlap the Revenue Allocation Area shown and described on Attachments 1 and 2 to this Plan. The Agency shall take all actions necessary or convenient to implement these revenue allocation financing provisions. The Agency specifically finds that the equalized assessed valuation of property within the Revenue Allocation Area is likely to increase as a result of the initiation of the Project. The Agency, acting by one or more resolutions adopted by its Board, is hereby authorized to apply all or any portion of the revenues allocated to the Agency pursuant to the Act to pay as costs are incurred (pay-as-you-go) or to pledge all or any portion of such revenues to the repayment of any moneys advance-funded by developers or owners, borrowed, indebtedness incurred, or notes or bonds issued by the Agency to finance or to refinance the Project Costs (as defined in Idaho Code § 50-2903(14)) of one or more urban renewal projects. The Agency may consider a note or line of credit issued by a bank or lending institution premised upon revenue allocation funds generated by a substantial private development contemplated by the Study as defined in section 502.1, which would allow the Agency to more quickly Rind the public improvements contemplated by this Plan. Likewise, a developer/owner advanced funding could achieve the same purpose. 26 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 185 of 293 Upon enactment of a City Council ordinance finally adopting these revenue allocation financing provisions and defining the Revenue Allocation Area described herein as part of the Plan, there shall hereby be created a special fund of the Agency into which the County Treasurer shall deposit allocated revenues as provided in Idaho Code § 50-2908. The Agency shall use such funds solely in accordance with Idaho Code § 50-2909 and solely for the purpose of providing funds to pay the Project Costs, including any incidental costs, of such urban renewal projects as the Agency may determine by resolution or resolutions of its Board. A statement listing proposed public improvements and facilities, a schedule of improvements, an economic feasibility study, estimated project costs, fiscal impact upon other taxing districts, and methods of financing project costs required by Idaho Code § 50-2905 is included in this Plan and in Attachment 5 to this Plan. This statement necessarily incorporates estimates and projections based on the Agency's and the consultants' present knowledge and expectations. The Agency is hereby authorized to adjust the presently anticipated urban renewal projects and use of revenue allocation financing of the related Project Costs if the Board deems such adjustment necessary or convenient to effectuate the general objectives of the Plan in order to account for revenue inconsistencies, market adjustments, fiiture priorities, and unknown future costs. Agency revenue and the ability to fund reimbursement of eligible Project Costs is more specifically detailed in the annual budget. The Agency may appropriate funds consisting of revenue allocation proceeds on an annual basis without the issuance of notes or bonds. The Agency may also obtain advances or loans frorn the City or Agency, or private entity and financial institutions in order to immediately commence construction of certain of the public improvements. Developer advanced funding of public improvements could also achieve the same purpose. The revenue allocation proceeds are hereby irrevocably pledged for the payment of the principal and interest on the advance of monies or making of loans or the incurring of any indebtedness such as bonds, notes, and other obligations (whether funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise) by the Agency to finance or refinance the Project in whole or in part, including reimbursement to developers for the cost of eligible public improvements. Revenues will continue to be allocated to the Agency until termination of the revenue allocation area as set forth in Section 800, Attachment 5 incorporates estimates and projections based on the Agency's and the consultants' present knowledge and expectations concerning the length of time to complete the improvements and estimated future revenues. The activity may take longer depending on the significance and timeliness of development. Alternatively, the activity may be completed earlier if revenue allocation proceeds are greater or the Agency obtains additional funds. 502.1 Economic Feasibility Study Attachment 5 constitutes the Economic Feasibility Study ("Study") for the urban renewal area prepared by Kushlan I Associates and SMR Development, LLC. The Study constitutes the 27 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 186 of 293 financial analysis required by the Act and is based upon existing information from property owners, developers, the Agency, City and others. 502.2 Assumptions and Conditions/Economic Feasibility Statement The information contained in Attachment 5 assumes certain completed and projected actions. All debt is projected to be repaid no later than the duration period of the Plan. The total amount of bonded indebtedness, developer reimbursement and all other loans or indebtedness, and the amount of revenue generated by revenue allocation are dependent upon the extent and timing of private development. Should all of the proposed development take place as projected, the project indebtedness could be extinguished earlier, dependent upon the bond sale documents or other legal obligations. Should private development take longer to materialize, or should the private development be substantially less than projected, then the amount of revenue generated will be substantially reduced and debt may continue for its full term. The Plan and the Plan Attachments incorporate estimates and projections based on the Agency's and consultants' present knowledge and expectations. The Plan proposes certain public improvements as set forth in Attachment 5,which will facilitate mixed-use commercial, residential, office and retail development in the Revenue Allocation Area. The assumptions set forth in the Study are based upon the best information available to the Agency and consultants through public sources or discussions with property owners, developers, City staff and others. The information has been analyzed by the Agency and its consultants in order to provide an analysis that meets the requirements set forth under the Law and Act. At the point in time when the Agency may seek a loan from lenders or others, a more detailed and then-current financial pro forma will be presented to those lenders or underwriters for analysis to determine the borrowing capacity of the Agency. As set forth herein, the Agency reserves the right to fund the Project on a"pay as you go" basis. The Agency Board will prioritize the activities set forth in this Plan and determine what funds are available and what activities can,be funded. The Agency will establish those priorities through its mandated annual budgetary process. The list of public improvements, or activities within Attachment 5 are prioritized by way of importance to the Agency, by feasibility based on estimated revenues to be received, amounts funded, and by year of funding. The projected timing of funding is primarily a function of the availability of financial resources and market conditions but is also strategic, considering the timing of private development partnership opportunities and the ability of certain strategic activities to stimulate development at given points in time within the duration of the Plan and Project Area. The assumptions concerning revenue allocation proceeds are based upon certain anticipated development, assessed value increases and assumed levy rates as more specifically set forth in Attachment 5. Further, the financial analysis set forth in Attachment 5 has taken into 28 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 187 of 293 account and excluded levies that do not flow to the Agency consistent with Idaho Code § 50- 2908. The types of new construction expected in the Project Area are mixed-use, residential, commercial, office and retail projects, and related public improvements, as well as a community recreation facility, public open spaces, and public structured parking facility and/or surface parking lots. The Project Area has potential for a significant increase in residential, commercial, and retail growth due to the location of the Project Area. However, without a method to construct the identified public improvements such as water lines, street infrastructure, and pedestrian amenities, development is unlikely to occur in much of the Project Area. 502.3 Ten Percent Limitation Under the Act, the base assessed valuation for all revenue allocation areas cannot exceed gross/net ten percent (10%) of the current assessed taxable value for the entire City. According to the Ada County Assessor, the assessed taxable value for the City as of January 1, 20191, less homeowner's exemptions is $9,465,760,011.00. Therefore, the 10% limit is $946,576,001.00. The adjusted base assessed value of each of the existing or proposed revenue allocation areas as of January 1, 2019, is as follows: Meridian Revitalization Plan (Downtown District Plan)' $131,252,900 Ten Mile District $12,582,900 Union District $2,163,380 The adjusted base values for the combined revenue allocation areas total $145,998,180, which is less than 10% of the City's 2019 taxable value. 502.4 Financial Limitation The Study identifies several capital improvement projects. Use of any particular financing or funding source for any particular purpose is not assured or identified. Use of the fiinding source shall be conditioned on any limitations set forth in the Law, the Act, by contract, or by other federal regulations. If revenue allocation funds are unavailable, then the Agency will need to use a different funding source for that improvement. The amount of funds available to the Agency from revenue allocation financing is directly related to the assessed value of new improvements within the Revenue Allocation Area. Under the Act, the Agency is allowed the revenue allocation generated from inflationary Due to the timing of the assessment process and creation of this Plan,the 2019 values have been used to establish compliance with the 10%limitation. Using the 2019 values, the total adjusted base value of the existing and proposed revenue allocation areas combined with the value of this Project Area are less than 2%of the total taxable value of the City. Even assuming an increase in values for 2020,the combined adjusted base values of the revenue allocation areas would not exceed 10%of the current assessed taxable value for the entire City. '-Less area deannexed by the First Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan Urban Renewal Project,adopted by City Council Ordinance No. on.tune 2020. 29 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 188 of 293 increases and new development value. Increases have been assumed based upon the projected value of new development as that development occurs along with possible land reassessment based on a construction start. The Study, with the various estimates and projections, constitutes an economic feasibility study. Costs and revenues are analyzed, and the analysis shows the need for public capital funds during the project. Multiple financing sources including annual revenue allocations, developer contributions, City contributions, interfund loan, property disposition, and other funds are shown. This Study identifies the kind, number, and location of all anticipated public works or improvements, a detailed list of estimated project costs, a description of the methods of financing the estimated project costs, and the time when related costs or monetary obligations are to be incurred. See Idaho Code § 50-2905. Based on these funding sources, the conclusion is that the project is feasible. The Agency reserves the discretion and flexibility to use revenue allocation proceeds in excess of the amounts projected in the Study for the purpose of funding the additional identified projects and improvements. The projections in the Study are based on reasonable assumptions and existing market conditions. However, should the Project Area result in greater than anticipated revenues, the Agency specifically reserves the ability to -fund the additional activities and projects identified in this Plan. Further, the Agency reserves the discretion and flexibility to use other sources of funds unrelated to revenue allocation to assist in the funding of the improvements and activities identified, including but not limited to owner participation agreements and disposition and development agreements. The Agency may also, re-prioritize projects pursuant to market conditions, project timing, funding availability, etc. as more specifically detailed in the annual budget. The proposed timing for the public improvements may very well have to be adjusted depending upon the availability of sorne of the funds and the Agency's ability to finance any portion of the Project. Any adjustment to Project tuning or funding is technical or ministerial in nature and shall not be considered a modification of the Plan pursuant to Idaho Code § 50-2903A. Attachment 5 lists those public improvements the Agency intends to construct through the terra of the Plan. The costs of improvements are estimates only as it is impossible to know with any certainty what the costs of improvements will be in future years. There is general recognition that construction costs fluctuate and are impacted by future unknowns, such as, the cost of materials and laborers. Final costs will be determined by way of construction contract public bidding or by an agreement between the developer/owner and Agency. The listing of public improvements does not commit the City or Agency to any particular level of funding; rather, identification of the activity in the Plan allows the Agency to negotiate the terms of any reimbursement with the developer and/or City, This Plan does not financially bind or obligate the City or Agency to any project or property acquisition; rather, for purposes of determining the economic feasibility of the Plan certain projects and expenditures have been estimated and included in the analysis. Agency revenue and the ability to fund reimbursement of eligible 30 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 189 of 293 Project Costs is more specifically detailed in any participation agreement and in the annual budget adopted by the Agency Board, The Agency reserves its discretion and flexibility in deciding which improvements are more critical for development, and the Agency intends to coordinate its public improvements with associated development by private developers/owners. The Agency also intends to coordinate its participation in the public improvements with the receipt of certain grants or loans which may require the Agency's participation in some combination with the grant and loan funding. Generally, the Agency expects to develop those improvements identified in Attachment 5 first, in conjunction with private development within the Project Area generating the increment as identified in Attachment 5, The Plan has shown that the equalized valuation of the Revenue Allocation Area as defined in the Plan is likely to increase as a result of the initiation and completion of urban renewal projects pursuant to the Plan. 502.5 Participation with Local Improvement Districts and Business Improvement Districts Under the Idaho Local Improvement ("LID") District Code, Chapter 17, Title 50, Idaho Code, the City has the authority to establish local improvement districts for various public facilities, including, but not limited to, streets, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, storm► drains, landscaping, and other like facilities. To the extent allowed by the Law and the Act, the Agency reserves the authority, but not the obligation, to participate in the firnding of local improvement district facilities. This participation may include either direct funding to reduce the overall cost of the LID or to participate as an assessed entity to finance the LID project. Similarly, to the extent allowed by the Law and the Act, the Agency reserves the authority, but not the obligation, to participate in the funding of the purposes specified under the Business Improvement Districts, Chapter 26, Title 50, Idaho Code. 502.6 Issuance of Debt and Debt Limitation Any debt incurred by the Agency as allowed by the Law and Act shall be secured by revenues identified in the debt resolution or revenue allocation funds as allowed by the Act. All such debt shall be repaid within the duration of this Plan, except as may be authorized by law. 502.7 Impact on Other Taxing Districts and Levy Rate An estimate of the overall impact of the revenue allocation project on each taxing district is shown in the Study through the new development projections set forth in Attachment 5. The assessed value for each property in a revenue allocation area consists of a base value and an increment value. The base value is the assessed value as of January 1 of the year in 31 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 190 of 293 which a revenue allocation area is approved by a municipality, with periodic adjustments allowed by Idaho law. The increment value is the difference between the adjusted base assessed value and current assessed taxable value in any given year while the property is in a revenue allocation area. Under Idaho Code § 63-802, taxing entities are constrained in establishing levy rates by the amount each budget of each taxing district can increase on an annual basis. Taxing entities submit proposed budgets to the County Board of Commissioners, which budgets are required to comply with the limitations set forth in Idaho Code § 63-802. Therefore, the impact of revenue allocation is more of a product of the imposition of Idaho Code § 63-802, than the effect of urban renewal. The County Board of Commissioners calculates the levy rate required to produce the proposed budget amount for each taxing entity using the assessed values which are subject to each taxing entity's levy rate. Assessed values in urban renewal districts which arc subject to revenue allocation (incremental values) are not included in this calculation. The combined levy rate for the taxing entities is applied to the incremental property values in a revenue allocation area to determine the amount of property tax revenue which is allocated to an urban renewal agency. The property taxes generated by the base values in the urban renewal districts and by properties outside revenue allocation areas are distributed to the other taxing entities. Properties in revenue allocation areas are subject to the same levy rate as they would be outside a revenue allocation area. The difference is how the revenue is distributed. If the overall levy rate is less than assumed, the Agency will receive fewer funds from revenue allocation. In addition, without the Revenue Allocation Area and its ability to pay for public improvements and public facilities, fewer substantial improvements within the Revenue Allocation Area would be expected during the term of the Plan; hence, there would be lower increases in assessed valuation to be used by the other taxing entities. The Study's analysis is premised upon the fact the proposed development would not occur but for the ability to use revenue allocation fiends to fund certain significant public infrastructure improvements. One result of new construction occurring outside the revenue allocation area (Idaho Code §§ 63-802 and 63-301A) is the likely reduction of the levy rate as assessed values increase for property within each taxing entity's jurisdiction. From and after December 31, 2006, Idaho Code § 63-301A prohibits taxing entities from including, as part of the new construction roll, the increased value related to new construction within a revenue allocation area until the revenue allocation authority is terminated. Any new construction within the Project Area is not available in the short term for inclusion by the taxing entities to increase their budget capacity. Under current law, upon termination of this Plan or deannexation of area, the taxing entities will be able to include the accumulated new construction roll value in setting the following year's budget and revenue from such value is not limited to the three percent increase allowed in Idaho Code § 63- 802(1)(a). 32 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 191 of 293 As 2019 certified levy rates are not determined until late September 2020, the 2019 certified levy rates have been used in the Study for purposes of the analysis.3 Those taxing districts and rates area as follows: Taxing District Levies: Ada County 002549212 Ada County Highway District .000771526 City of Meridian .003083910 West Ada School District .000014448 Ada County Ambulance .000121i 963 Mosquito Abatement District .000021765 College of Western Idaho .000128506 Meridian Cemetery .000037985 Meridian Free Library .000441567 Western Ada Recreation 000042391 TOTAL: .007213273 The Study has made certain assumptions concerning the levy rate primarily based on the Idaho Legislature's intended study of the property tax system, as well as the recognition of the termination of the Meridian Revitalization Plan Urban Renewal Project during the life of this Plan and Project Area. For purposes of this Plan and the Study, the levy rate is estimated conservatively to be .0065, which is an almost 10% reduction of the estimated applicable levy rate set forth above. The levy rate is estimated to stay level for the life of the revenue allocation area. If the overall levy rate is less than projected, or the land values do not increase as expected, or expected development fails to occur as estimated, the Agency shall receive fewer fiends from revenue allocation. Pursuant to Idaho Code § 50-2908, the Agency is not entitled to revenue allocation proceeds from certain levy increases which are allowed by either specific statutory authorization or approved by an election of the qualified electors of the particular taxing district. Therefore, for any levy election, the Agency will not receive revenue allocation funds which would have been generated by imposing that levy on the assessed valuation within the Project Area. The Study has taken this statute into account. 503 Lease Revenue, Parking Revenue, and Bonds Under the Law (Idaho Code § 50-2012), the Agency is authorized to issue revenue bonds to finance certain public improvements identified in the Plan. Under that type of financing, the public entity would pay the Agency a lease payment annually which provides certain funds to the Agency to retire the bond debt. Another variation of this type of financing is sometimes referred to as conduit financing, which provides a mechanism where the Agency uses its bonding 3 Due to the timing of the taxing districts' budget and levy setting process, certification of the 2020 levy rates did not occur until after this Plan had been prepared and considered by the Agency. In order to provide a basis to analyze the impact on the taxing entities,the 2019 levy rates are used. Use of the 2019 levy rates provides a more accurate base than estimatuig the 2020 levy rates. 33 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 192 of 293 authority for the Project, with the end user making payments to the Agency to retire the bond debt. These sources of revenues are not related to revenue allocation funds and are not particularly noted in the Study, because of the "pass through" aspects of the financing. Under the Act, the economic feasibility study focuses on the revenue allocation aspects of the Agency's financial model. These financing models typically are for a longer period of time than the 20-year period set forth in the Act. However, these financing models do not involve revenue allocation fiends, but rather funds from the end users which provide a funding source for the Agency to continue to own and operate the facility beyond the term of the Plan as allowed by Idaho Code § 50-2905(8) as those resources involve funds not related to revenue allocation Rinds. 504 Membership Dues and Support of Community Economic Development The Act is premised upon economic development being a valid public purpose. To the extent allowed by the Law and the Act, the Agency reserves the authority to use revenue allocation funds to contract with non-profit and charitable organizations established for the purpose of supporting economic development and job creation. Additionally, the Agency reserves the authority to expend revenue allocation funds to join, participate and support non- profit organizations established to support Agency best practices and administration. The District Operating Expenses identified in the Study shall be deemed to include expenditures for the purposes described in this section as may be deemed appropriate during the annual budgetary process. 600 ACTIONS BY THE CITY AND OTHER PUBLIC ENTITIES The City shall aid and cooperate with the Agency in carrying out this Plan and shall take all actions necessary to ensure the continued fulfillment of the purposes of this Plan and to prevent the recurrence or spread in the area of conditions causing deterioration. Actions by the City shall include, but not be limited to, the following: a. Institution and completion of proceedings necessary for changes and improvements in private and publicly owned public utilities within or affecting the Project Area, b. Revision of zoning (if necessary) within the Project Area to permit the land uses and development authorized by this Plan. C. Imposition wherever necessary of appropriate controls within the limits of this Plan upon parcels in the Project Area to ensure their proper development and use. d. Provision for administrative enforcement of this Plan by the City after- development. The City and the Agency may develop and provide for enforcement of a program for continued maintenance by owners of all real 34 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 193 of 293 property, both public and private, within the Project Area throughout the duration of this Plan. e. Building Code enforcement. f. Performance of the above actions and of all other functions and services relating to public peace, health, safety, and physical development normally rendered in accordance with a schedule which will permit the development and/or redevelopment of the Project Area to be commenced and carried to completion without unnecessary delays. g. The undertaking and completing of any other proceedings necessary to carry out the Project. h. Administration of Community Development Block Grant funds that may be made available for this Project. i. Appropriate agreements with the Agency for administration, supporting services, funding sources, and the like. j. Use of public entity labor, services, and materials for construction of the public improvements listed in this Plan. k. Coordination of the development agreements entered into by the City and developer with the goals of the Plan. 1. Assist with coordinating and implementing the public improvements in the Project Area identified in the Study. Tn addition to the above, the City may elect to waive hookup or installation fees for sewer, water, or other utility services for any facility owned by any public entity or Agency facility and waive any city impact fee for development within the Project Area. The foregoing actions to be taken by the City do not constitute any commitment for financial outlays by the City or other applicable public entity. 601 Maintenance of Public Improvements The Agency has not identified any commitment or obligation for Iong-term maintenance of the public improvements identified. The Agency will need to address this issue with the appropriate entity, public or private,who has benefited from or is involved in the ongoing preservation of the public improvement. The Agency expects to dedicate public improvements to the City. 35 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 194 of 293 700 ENFORCEMENT The administration and enforcement of this Plan, including the preparation and execution of any documents implementing this Plan, shall be performed by the Agency and/or the City. 800 DURATION OF THIS PLAN, TERMINATION, AND ASSET REVIEW The provisions of this Plan shall be effective, and the provisions of other documents formulated pursuant to this Plan, shall be effective for twenty (20) years from the effective date of the Plan subject to modifications and/or extensions set forth in Idaho Code §§ 50-2904 and 50-2905(7). The revenue allocation authority will expire on December 31, 2040, except for any revenue allocation proceeds received in calendar year 2041, as contemplated by Idaho Code § 50-2905(7). The Agency may use proceeds in 2041 to complete the projects set forth herein. As stated in the Plan, any owner participation agreement or disposition and development agreement obligations will cease as of December 31, 2040. Idaho Code § 50-2903(5) provides the Agency shall adopt a resolution of intent to terminate the revenue allocation area by September 1 of the termination year. In order to provide sufficient notice of termination to the affected taxing districts to allow them to benefit from the increased budget capacity, the Agency will use its best efforts to provide notice of its intent to terminate this Plan and its revenue allocation authority by May 1, 2041, or if the Agency determines an earlier terminate date, then by May I of the early termination year: a. When the Revenue Allocation Area plan budget estimates that all financial obligations have been provided for, the principal of and interest on such moneys, indebtedness, and bonds have been paid in full or when deposits in the special fund or fluids created under this chapter are sufficient to pay such principal and interest as they come due, and to Rind reserves, if any, or any other obligations of the Agency funded through revenue allocation proceeds shall be satisfied and the Agency has determined no additional project costs need be funded through revenue allocation financing, the allocation of revenues under Idaho Code § 50- 2908 shall thereupon cease; any moneys in such fund or funds in excess of the amount necessary to pay such principal and interest shall be distributed to the affected taxing districts in which the Revenue Allocation Area is located by the County Clerk in the same manner and proportion as the most recent distribution to the affected taxing districts of the taxes on the taxable property located within the Revenue Allocation Area; and the powers granted to the urban renewal agency under Idaho Code § 50-2909 shall thereupon terminate. b. In determining the termination date, the Plan shall recognize that the Agency shall receive allocation of revenues in the calendar year following the last year of the revenue allocation provision described in the Plan. e. For the fiscal year that immediately predates the termination date, the Agency shall adopt and publish a budget specifically for the projected revenues and 36 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 195 of 293 expenses of the Plan and make a determination as to whether the Revenue Allocation Area can be terminated before January I of the termination year pursuant to the terms of Idaho Code § 50-2909(4). In the event that the Agency determines that current tax year revenues are sufficient to cover all estimated expenses for the current year and all future years, by May 1,but in any event, no later than September 1, the Agency shall adopt a resolution advising and notifying the local governing body, the county auditor, and the State Tax Commission, recommending the adoption of an ordinance for termination of the Revenue Allocation Area by December 31 of the current year, and declaring a surplus to be distributed as described in Idaho Code § 50-2909 should a surplus be determined to exist. The Agency shall cause the ordinance to be filed with the office of the county recorder and the Idaho State Tax Commission as provided in Idaho Code § 63-215. Upon termination of the revenue allocation authority of the Plan to the extent the Agency owns or possesses any assets, the Agency shall dispose of any remaining assets by granting or conveying or dedicating such assets to the City. As allowed by Idaho Code § 50-2905(8), the Agency may retain assets or revenues generated from such assets as loans; the Agency shall have resources other than revenue allocation funds to operate and manage such assets. Similarly, facilities which provide a lease income stream to the Agency for frill retirement of the facility debt will allow the Agency to meet debt services obligations and provide for the continued operation and management of the facility. For those assets which do not provide such resources or revenues, the Agency will likely convey such assets to the City, depending on the nature of the asset. 900 PROCEDURE FOR AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION To the extent there are any outstanding loans or obligations, this Plan shall not be modified pursuant to the provisions set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2903A. Modification of this Plan results in a reset of the base value for the year immediately following the year in which the modification occurred to include the current year's equalized assessed value of the taxable property in the revenue allocation area, effectively eliminating the Agency's revenue stream as more fully set forth in Idaho Code § 50-2903A subject to certain limited exceptions contained therein, including the exception to allow an amendment to support growth of an existing commercial or industrial project. I.C. § 50-2903A(1)(a)(iv).. As more specifically identified above, the Agency's projections are based on estimated values, estimated levy rates, estimated future development, and estimated costs of future construction/improvements. Annual adjustments as more specifically set forth in the Agency's annual budget will be required to account for snore/less estimated revenue and prioritization of projects. Any adjustments for these stated purposes are technical and ministerial and are not deemed a modification under Idaho Code § 50-2903A(l)(a)(i). 37 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 196 of 293 1000 SEVERABILITY If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Plan to be performed on the part of the Agency shall be declared by any court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, then such provision or provisions shall be null and void and shall be deemed separable from the remaining provisions in this Plan and shall in no way affect the validity of the other provisions of this Plan. 1100 ANNUAL REPORT AND OTHER REPORTING REQUIREMENTS Under the Law, the Agency is required to file with the City, on or before March 31 of each year, a report of the Agency's activities for the preceding calendar year, which report shall include a complete financial statement setting forth its assets, liabilities, income, and operating expenses as of the end of such calendar year. This annual report shall be considered at a public meeting to report these findings and take comments from the public. Additionally, the Agency must comply with certain other reporting requirements as set forth in Idaho Code § 57-450E, the local government registry portal, Idaho Code § 50-2913, the tax commission plan repository, and Idaho Code § 50-2903A, the flax commission's plan modification annual attestation. Failure to report the information requested under any of these statutes results in significant penalties, including loss of increment revenue, and the imposition of other compliance measures by the Ada County Board of County Commissioners. 1200 APPENDICES, ATTACHMENTS,EXHIBITS, TABLES All attachments and tables referenced in this Plan are attached and incorporated herein by their reference.

This Attachment also sets forth a finding as to the economic feasibility of the proposed Project recognizing the specific assumptions used in the modeling, including a description of the methods of financing the estimated project costs, the timing of development and cash flow analysis. As more fully set forth in the Plan, the proposed Project to be funded by revenue allocation funds includes fully improved streets, utilities, and other public rights-of-way amenities, as well as park and open spaces, a community center and associated public parking facilities and/or structures. The Meridian Development Corporation ("MDC") Public Improvement List set forth below identifies with specificity needed investments to support private investment in capital facilities. Capital facilities generally have long useful lives and significant costs. The overall Project and the infrastructure to support it are all consistent with the vision articulated in the City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan and as required in City development regulations. The cost estimates provided by architects and consulting engineers are based upon prices for similar construction in the broader area for 2020 and have not been adjusted for inflation, Estimated costs proposed to be incurred in implementing the Plan are as follows: Public Improvement List Proposed Public Infrastructure, Including Engineering, Design, Installation, Construction, and/or Reconstruction of: Improvements to 3rd Street Improvements to Broadway Avenue Intersection Improvements and Rail Crossing Safety Enhancements Pedestrian Improvements Streetscape Improvements Sewer Infrastructure Improvements Water Infrastructure Improvements Electrical Distribution Improvements Right-of-Way Landscaping Improvements Utility Relocations Lateral Relocation and Improvements Attachment 5 - 1 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 207 of 293 Irrigation and Drainage Improvements Sub-total $1,215,000 Additional Public Parking Facilities and Open Space $1,510,000 Civic Block Improvements Civic Block Site Improvements $1,615,000 Structured Public Parking $4,250,000 Sub-Total $5,865,000 Community Center Construction $6,450,000 City of Meridian Community Center Contribution (53,000,000) Net Project Area Cost Construction $3,450,000 Total Civic Block and Structure Parking Cost $12,315,0001 Grand Total $12,040,000 It is understood the estimated costs detailed above will change over the life of the Plan due to inflation, further project refinement, timing and bidding. The cost estimates are a necessary assumption in determining economic feasibility and are estimates for the purpose of financial planning. Based on the assumptions made in the Study, the Project Area is estimated to generate $16,286,437 in tax increment/revenue allocation proceeds between 2020 and 2040. Initial urban renewal planning costs are estimated to be funded by a $75,000 interfund loan from MDC. Additionally, the Study assumes a $3,000,000 contribution from the City to support the construction of the proposed community center.The City's anticipated contribution is from Parks and Recreation impact fees that have been collected for a community center. At this time the City has not obligated any funds from impact fees or the general fund for the proposed community center. The estimated total resources for the Project are estimated to be $19,361,437. As identified above, there are presently$12,040,000 of estimated total Project Costs related to the Project after the City of Meridian's contribution. The feasibility analysis assumes Projects will be implemented and advance-funded by property owners and/or ' Includes City Community Center Contribution. Attachment 5 - 2 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 208 of 293 developers. For purposes of Idaho Code § 50-2905 and the Study, it is assumed that any owner or developer participant in the Project will be reimbursed with tax increment/revenue allocation proceeds through an owner participation agreement (OPA) negotiated by and between MDC and any owner and/or developer participant. Based on information from MDC staff, MDC currently administers OPAs in existing project areas utilizing 75% or 90% reimbursement to the owner or developer participant from tax increment/revenue allocation proceeds, In analyzing the economic feasibility of the proposed Project, an assumption of a 75/25 split is used recognizing the actual split will be subject to any negotiated OPA. For purposes of determining economic feasibility of the Project, administrative costs (District Operating Expenses) over the 20-year life of the Project Area are estimated to be $968,105 or approximately 6% of total estimated revenue. This amount was calculated using the assumption of 10% of annual tax increment/revenue allocation proceeds for administration of the Project Area or $50,000 per year. The actual amount of administrative costs will be set forth and determined in the MDC's annual budget; however, for purposes of economic feasibility an estimate of costs is necessary. The initial interfund loan from MDC for preliminary Project Area costs is estimated in the Study to be repaid at 5%simple interest for a total obligation of$112,500. Considering the estimated revenue allocation proceeds over the life of the Project Area less the estimated Project costs, there is estimated to be a $100,000 positive balance of at the end of the 20-year term, rendering the Project economically feasible. Attachments 5.3 and 5.4 provide detailed information concerning revenue estimates and cash flow analysis. In analyzing the methods of financing, secure funding includes revenue allocation funds and is money the MDC is highly likely to receive should private development occur within the Project Area. The funds may not be in the MDC's possession at the beginning of the Plan period, but it is virtually certain MDC will receive the funds should private development proceed as proposed. MDC may need to take specific actions to generate the funding, but those actions are within its powers. Despite the high probability of secure funding, no Project can proceed until a specific, enforceable funding plan is in place, Potential funding is money that might be received by the MDC over the life of the Project Area. It is funding the MDC is eligible for and exists under current law; however, each potential funding source requires one or more additional steps or decisions before the MDC can obtain the resources, and the ultimate decision is outside of the MDC's independent control. The proposed City capital contribution to the community center and grant funds are examples of potential funding. Additionally, the issuance of bonds is not anticipated in this analysis. Potential funding is not assumed in determining economic feasibility. Attachment 5 -3 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 209 of 293 Unfunded Projects, or portions of Projects are those lacking secure or potential funding. Unfunded Projects are not considered or assumed in determining economic feasibility. It is generally understood, the amount of tax increment/revenue allocation contributed to the Project will vary from the assumptions and estimates used in the economic feasibility study depending upon actual revenue and the actual cost of the Projects. Other sources of funding for Projects may include, but are not limited to: • Local Improvement Districts (LID) + Business Improvement Districts (BID) = Development Impact Fees + Franchise Fees + Grants from federal, state, local, regional agencies and/or private entities + Other bonds, notes and/or loans Summary of Estimated Cost of Operations and Improvements by Year Based on Assumptions(2020-2041) Year Secure Fuznd[ng Potent[ [sr�[ct iVIAG Lear, OPR DebC r £dotal Pra�eaC (T(F "11, al Operat[n petit Serv[ce Service(7'5�rr L[al�fhties , & l F -05 o 40' J, NOW expenses r � ' @ 2 65 �y 2020 $75,000 $0 $25,000 $0 $25,00p 2021 $0 $0 $25,000 $0 $25,0;OQ 2022 $0 $0 $25,000 $0 2023 $447,366 $0 $44,737 $40,000 $335,525 2024 $456,578 $0 $48,368 $45,000 $342,434 ;'$935A02;'� 2025 $823,409, $0 $S0,000 $27,500 $617,557 2026 $840,141 $0 $50,000 $0 $630,106 � ,$ 80,7'Q6 2027 $857,207 $0 $50,00o $0 $643,475 2028 $874,615 $0 $50,000 $0 $824,615 2029 $892,371 $0 $50,000 $0 $842,371892,37 2030 $910,482 $0 $50,000 $0 $860482 $90,�k82: 2031 $928,955 $0 $50,000 $0 $878,955 2032 $947,797 $0 $50,000 $0 $897,797 2033 $967,016 $0 $50,000 $0 $917,016 2034 $986,619 $0 $50,000 $0 $936,619 $986,b�:19 2035 $1,006,614 $0 $50,000 $0 $956,615 2036 $1,027,008 $0 $50,000 $0 $977 008 2037 $1,047,811 $0 $50,000 $0 $997,8111,047,81 2038 $1,069,029 $0 $50,000 $0 $1,019,029 2039 $1,090,672 $0 $50,000 $0 $1,040 672 2040 $1,112,747 $0 $50,000 $0 $1,462,746 2,761 2041 $0 $0 0 $112,SKIM5 3 $33 � 6 26X,437 < Attachment 5 -4 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020- Page 210 of 293 ATTACHMENT 5.2 Determination of Economic Feasibility Based on Assumptions Based upon reasonable assumptions and recognizing MDC's ability to prioritize Projects in its budget and negotiate the terms of any owner participation agreement with an owner and/or developer, the Plan is deemed to be economically feasible as the estimated revenue in the Project Area exceeds the estimated Project costs. The economic feasibility of the Plan is based, in part, on the following factors: • The value of new taxable private development proposed in the Project Area • The timing of the proposed taxable development • The nature of the propose taxable development The amount of tax increment/revenue allocation proceeds to be generated by proposed development • The estimated cost of public improvement projects in 2020 dollars • That the Projects are assumed to be advance funded by any owner or developer in the Project Area to be reimbursed with tax increment/revenue allocation proceeds overtime pursuant to negotiated owner participation agreements. • If estimated revenue projections equal or exceed estimated project costs, the Plan is deemed to be economically feasible. The following is a summary of the analysis and estimates of the factors used to determine the economic feasibility of the MDC Union District Urban Renewal Plan. Attachments 5.3 and 5.4 provide a more detailed outlook on the revenues and expenses in determining economic feasibility. The following assumptions were used in Attachments 5.3 and 5.4 to support of finding the Project meets the requirements of economic feasibility: a Land Value Increases @ 1%/Yr. o Improvement Value Increases @ 2%/Yr. a Applicable Levy Rate is reduced from the 2019 certified applicable levy rates by an estimated 10% and held constant through the life of the Plan and Project Area. The Applicable Levy Rate does not include any exempted levies as identified in Idaho Code § 50-2908 o Total estimated Cost of Improvements over the life of the project: $12,040,000, afterthe City of Meridian's contribution to the community center in the amount of$3,000,000 a Attachment 5.4 assumes 75% of the annual available tax increment/revenue allocation will be committed to reimburse an owner Attachment 5 -5 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 211 of 293 or developer for advance-funded public improvements. It is understood and recognized the actual reimbursement percentage is a term to be negotiated under any OPA o Attachment 5.4 provides for "Additional Principal" payments to any owner or developer if sufficient funds are available and provided for in any OPA In summary, based on the assumptions as set forth in Attachments 5.1 and 5.2, and as supported by Attachments 5.3 and 5.4, it is evident the Project will generate adequate revenue within the Project Area to fund the necessary Projects rendering the Project economically feasible. 4852-5500-2807,v.7 Attachment 5 - 6 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 212 of 293 tO CO m r-I h Ln rt N VI h LO m Q 00 ,-5 m ry h m rl t O Q O r r� GO to m r1 ri 14 O oz N n Q ' VI N Q .-� tD m Q a1 h p tD tip O 00 O to n n h tD M O C� Q St O 00 n t0 t0 Iv 1\ m IV m a r, m a N Q lO r, M 01 W m r- m HtO M Q r, r, 00 CO ar CO 00 00 m m m m m m a O O V} VT V} to th th Vy to V} VT i!?

Broadway Avenue Community Development Department Meridian, Idaho 83642 MEMORANDUM DATE: May 20,2020 TO: Mayor Simison and Meridian City Council Members FROM: Cameron Arial, Community Development Director RE: Urban Renewal Deannexation and New Union District Plan Background Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council, In partnership,the City and Meridian Development Corporation (MDC)continue to advance downtown revitalization efforts according to the City's Strategic and Comprehensive Plans and MDC's Destination Downtown plan. Below is a brief summary of this significant step in accomplishing these plans:the First Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan ("Amendment") providing for the de-annexation of 15 parcels from the original downtown urban renewal plan; and the new Union District Urban Renewal Plan ("Plan").We felt this would be helpful to bring you up to speed and aid in your evaluation of the proposal. The May 2611,2020 meeting and this memo is to inform the Council of past context,communicate pertinent information,and to aid the Council in its preparation for the official public hearing scheduled for June 2,2020. Final City Council action is to be taken on June 9, 2020 after the public hearing. History The City and MDC are pursuing the creation of a new 16-acre urban renewal district in downtown Meridian to generate needed economic opportunities for the entire community and upgrade critical infrastructure. The City and MDC have been working to accomplish key initiatives of the City's Strategic and Comprehensive Plans and MDC's Destination Downtown revitalization plan for quite some time. Last year an RFP for a downtown development concept was broadly distributed in an effort to redevelop City-and MDC-owned properties between Idaho and Broadway and 2nd and 3rd Streets, known as the Civic Block.A third party developer(Galena Opportunity Fund)was unanimously selected and approved by both the City Council and MDC Board to assist in the redevelopment of the properties in a true Public Private Partnership.The developer proposed to harness the tax increment financing(TIF) revenues of urban renewal from their conceptual project on the Union Pacific properties to the south and channel those revenues to public improvements to accomplish many of the City's and MDC's strategic goals.This was the genesis of the proposal before you. Current Advancements Since then,the City and MDC have been moving forward to make the proposal a reality.A major part of the process is the deannexation of the proposed properties from the existing urban renewal district and the creation of a new district encompassing those properties. Urban renewal districts are designed to help alleviate blight, encourage economic vibrancy,spur private investment, and fund important public infrastructure improvements.The Civic Block area being considered is the most underdeveloped part of downtown Meridian.The area could greatly benefit from upgrades to the sidewalks, community lighting,water and sewer lines and roads to name just a few needs. Currently, it sits within the existing urban renewal district. However,with only six years left until the existing district expires, more time is needed to generate the necessary TIF revenues to fully redevelop and tackle needed public infrastructure improvements. 33 E.

The Planning and Zoning Commission adopted Resolution No. 20-01,validating conformity of the Amendment and Resolution No. 20-02,validating conformity of the Union District Plan with the City's Comprehensive Plan.The staff analysis presented to the Commission is attached. This is the first of three required readings of Ordinance No. 20-1881 approving the Plan Amendment and Ordinance No. 20-1882 approving the Union District Plan. STAFF ANALYSIS Legal staff has reviewed State Code and confirms that the process has followed statutes, including the required distribution of both documents to all affected taxing entities. Amendment The Amendment is required to de-annex the 15 properties first identified in the Eligibility Report.The annual revenue loss TIF is estimated at$12,000.The annual revenue gain from any future redevelopment will greatly exceed this base amount. Union District Plan The economic feasibility study estimates total tax increment revenue of$16,286,436 to be generated over the life of the Plan (Plan will sunset on December 31, 2040).This figure was determined using the following assumptions: • Total private investment of$125,737,000 in the first five years of the Plan,occurring in 2023 and 2025 • Annual land value increase of 1% • Annual improvement value increase of 2% • A 10%reduction in the current tax rate, held constant through the life of the Plan The projected revenue is sufficient to fund the proposed $15,040,000 public improvements outlined in the Plan.That figure would likely be reduced to$12,040,000 based on an anticipated $3,000,000 impact fee City contribution for the Community Center(Attachment 5.1).

An Urban Renewal District is a Tax Increment Finance (TIF) tool that helps fund public infrastructure to support redevelopment (downtown), bare undeveloped land that is infrastructure challenged (business/industrial parks) and brownfield development (industrial site).

Once the District sunsets, increased boundaries of the urban closed.The increment is then used to reimburse annual incremental revenues are placed on the renewal district at the time the a developer or other proponents for building and new construction roll for taxation. district is formed, creating public infrastructure that is accepted by the City.

(or whatever the life of the district may be),most of the Without a TIF,many areas see no major development increased revenue flows back to the taxing districts. for many years, These funds open up an option for decreased levy rates and subsequent tax burden when a district closes. How would creating a URD affect the properties area? 1. Help with Blight and Infrastructure Challenges -A City with an area that struggles to redevelop because of blight, deteriorating buildings, or a lack of infrastructure can utilize Urban Renewal to invest in specific districts. It is one of the only tools available to cities to help fund public infrastructure improvements. 2. Funded by Property Tax Increment- Establishing an URD doesn't raise property taxes. Over time if redevelopment happens, the property values increase. As they increase, the new tax revenue (that wouldn't have been there if not for urban renewal) is re-invested in the URD. 3. District Plan - Cities follow a District Plan and can only work on projects outlined within that plan. Once the URD sunsets, increased annual incremental revenues are placed on the new construction roll for taxation. City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— PageoWipf 293 ■ How is the boundary of RI determined? The boundary of a URD is determined by examining areas of the City that are prime for redevelopment (downtown) or development (future business and/or industrial areas). These areas will be evaluated to determine eligibility. Eligibility criteria, per Idaho Code, includes deteriorating buildings or sites, defective street layouts, faulty lot layout, insanitary or unsafe conditions, diversity of ownership, tax delinquency, defective and unusual conditions of title, or endangerment of life or property. An additional eligibility requirement is that the combined base assessment rolls of district(s) must be below 10 percent of the current assessed valuation of all taxable property within the City. Does a URD take moneyfrom other localgovernment A URD/TIF does not raise taxes or affect impact fees. Where economic disinvestment is evident and revitalization is essential the taxing districts of local government (schools, emergency services, etc.) receive all revenue to which they are entitled under state law and applicable budget and levy limits (base). Is the 'I going to increase Mostly likely NO. Property taxes are not increased when a URD is formed. Assuming the redevelopment activities result in growth that would not have occurred otherwise, the URD's activities help raise property values within Meridian's renewal district(s) at a faster rate than Meridian as a whole. This translates into a more valuable property for the owner and in turn, more tax revenue in the district. That said, rising levy rates are a function of increasing budgets, voter approved bonds/levies and lower taxable value. For example, if there is significant new construction occurring outside the RAA, then levy rates could be lower even with existing project areas. See Tax Increment Financing Graph 1 and Graph 2. What projects andlor improvements are anticipated? Urban renewal districts are formed in areas that are often in need of additional public infrastructure for support of schools, police, housing, roads, utilities, etc. Anticipated improvements may include but are not limited to streets, sidewalks, public utilities, water, sewer, irrigation, lighting, etc. QMWjW City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 229 of 293 ■ URBAN RENEWAL 101 (IN IDAHO) : AUTHORITY, OVERSIGHT, AND IMPLEMENTATION Presented by Ryan P.

(Local Economic Development Act) • When a revenue allocation area is formed, property valuation is calculated on a parcel-by-parcel basis. This is the base assessment roll of the revenue allocation area . • Base assessment roll for the geographic area under consideration (or collectively if more than one district) cannot exceed so% of the current assessed taxable value for the entire city. • Due to redevelopment, it is anticipated the property values will rise. If property values increase above the base value, the added value is called the increment. 14 Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 243 of 293 Revenue Allocation Financing, Continued • Budget for City, County, and other non-school taxing districts limited to previous year's budget plus 3%, new construction and forgone.

The Economic Development Committee of the Meridian Chamber of Commerce is made up of invested business leaders from the Meridian business community. The group meets on a regular basis to gather information and to advocate for issues of significant importance to the Chamber membership and the economic wellbeing of our community. The Union District Urban Renewal Project not only conforms to the City of Meridian's Comprehensive Plan,but the project is a great opportunity to continue the redevelopment of the Old Town Meridian. The project addresses many of the goals for the city's comprehensive plan as it relates to Old Town, including infill development, higher density, develop gathering spaces and civic facilities in Downtown, and continues to remove the blight from our downtown corridor. This ordinance will utilize the current laws and tools in place to allow for the much- needed redevelopment of a section of the downtown Meridian area. When we have developers and community partners willing to invest in the advancement of the cities vision and plan,we must do all we can to support these projects. Respectfully, Sincerely, Sean Evans President/CEO Meridian Chamber of Commerce Meridian City Council Meeting Agenda June 2,2020— Page 292 of 293 Chris Johnson From: Lindsey Bowshier <Ibowshier@tributemedia.com> Sent: Monday, June 1, 2020 2:16 PM To: City Clerk Subject: June 2 Union District URD Public Hearing - Public comment External Sender- Please use caution with links or attachments. City Council Members, I would like to express my support of the proposed plan to de-annex the Union District project area from the current Meridian Downtown urban renewal district to form its own URD. I appreciate the developer's interest and commitment to making more improvements to surrounding areas in downtown and continuing to eliminate blight and beautify our downtown area. A new URD will carry on the good work of our current downtown district which would sunset, I believe, before all the work that needs to be done is completed. The Union District Urban Renewal Project will add value to our community and add much needed support for our rapidly growing downtown. Thank you for your consideration and thank you for all this council does to serve our community!
