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

Corporation (the " DC ") will cease receiving an allocation of revenues from the dean.nexed
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 111 subsequent notification of taxable value for each taxing district pursuant to section 63 W
1312 , Idaho Cede , 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 Offlee
maintains the value information , including the increment value , if any, included on the new
construction roll for new construction associated with the d.ealmexed 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 .

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 .

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 Proj ect (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 -O 1
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 finding 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 conmunity 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 sej"vice retail
for" sLct"�"oundiyzg residents and visitors . A variety of' residential uses are also envisioned
and could include reuse of existing buildings, netiv construction of mZZlti fanZily 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 oil
Destination Downtoivii . Sam le 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 parlring 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 2M 1
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 .

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
itifi-astructure reirnbur,sement through tax incr-einent 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 transpar•entli, as part of negotiations for
partnerships with the Urban Renewal District, and through public hearing and
administrative approvals with the City?. Staff will rev e11v firtut4#e prg1ects for consistency with
this policy . The Union District Plan addresses
increases throu -shout the doczrj�rzent.
• 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 r c ferences to establishing perfbrniance criteria and
design standards in goal `i ' (page 4) , and duplicated under implementation letter V (page
H) . Thee' state :
In conjunction with the Clty, the establishment and implementation of pej4formance
criteria to asstrre lriglt site design standards and environmental ciclal1 y and other
design elements which provide uni4 and integriq, to the entire Project Area ,
including commitment offiind, for plannin<o studies, achieving high standards of
development, and leveraging such development to achieve public objectives and
ijffl• c * ent 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 pi k ect for the
Ci 41.
• 2 . 09 . 01 B , Establish incentives to develop gathering spaces and civic facilities within
Downtown .
A new urban renewal district could provide ,fo7A incentives such as gathering spaces and civic
facilities, which could be reimbursed through tag.: increment f nancing (TIF) . Part of the
Union District Plata specifically references a publicpr•ivate partnership, including the City,
for the construction of a community center.

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 Met'ldian Street Cross -
section Master Plan . Adopted in 2014, this document includes cross -section concepts•
intended to work with rninirnal impact to available impact, while also serving multi le
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
t firough the downto - vn area is very trrZportarzt.
It is particularly important that East 3r`i Street incorporate a pathway element to support
connectivity} of the City 's Pathway Master Plan through downtown, connecting Storey Park.
to Fairview A venue. Traff is speeds on �fet -idi*an Load are unf riendy to pedestrian , and
neither .Meridian Road nor .Ma 'n Street pr'oviWe safe bicycle connectivity] north -south, and
there is no other railroad crossing within the downtown area besides East 3 " 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 olden than .1960 's construction (2017 Existing
Conditions Report) , and almost all o�f it consolidated in the Downtown area, there is verj
limited opportunity for historic preser-nation outside ref agricultural themes~ in the larger
community. Several goals from this plan are relevant to the Union .District .Plan , including.
o Coal I Preserve and enhance Meridian 's historical, cultural and agricultural
heritage ,
o Coal 3 Heighten public awareness ()f historic preservation in the community and
improve preservationeducation ef_f`oats for• varJolis audiences ,
o Coal 4 1 aintain and strengthen support for" historic preservation from individuals ,
c' omm. ercial property owners , local organizations anC1 neighborhood groups .
These goals for the Commission
(arid City) are not just abazct preserving, but also enhancing
and generating awareness of Meridian 's histon . Additional objectives for these goods are
- described tiWthin the plan .
• Meridian Rail - With - Trail Action Plan
A portion of' the pr fic
oject area inn udes Union Paci night- of~ i%ay that is a _part of the Boise
cut - off TIZe Meridian Rail- With - Trail Action Plan identified an opportunity for a Treasure
Valley-wide multi - rise pathway. This action Plan has since been supplemented with
numerous planrZ1 efforts looking at more detailed cross -sections, .street crossings , and
alternatives . Meridian is actively working to construct certain portions, and part o f 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 -O 1
• Meridian Parks and Recreation Master Plan
One of the projects descr4ibed in the proposed Union District Plan is the developnfient of a
community center as part of the Civic Block project. Objective 4 . 3 of the Alleridian Parks and
Recreation Master Plan identi fees expanded indoor recreation space as a priorityy for the
community. Pathways are another signi f ccrr� t elerrient of this plan , and f lirtlZer� en�phcisizes
the demand for connectivio improvements to and through doi-vntown , and the project area .
• Meridian Pathways Master Plan
The Pathitvcrys Master Plan identifies north ~south (East 3 " Street) and east- west
(Br{oadivcy/Rail uiI Trpail) pathwa f connections through the project site. This plan xvor�lis in
concert with the Parrs cir'1d Recreation 11cister• Plan , 11! er�idiczrl Rail- T�Tith - Trail fiction Plan ,
and through many o.f the policies in the Comprehensive Plan,
• Downtown Meridian Transportation Management Plan
This plan ha, resulted in significant roadway expansions within .M ridian, including the split
corridor phase I and please 2 improvements . Two of the last projects left in the Downtown
Meridian Transportation Management Plan are the .fast Y'd 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 (arid ultimately to Locust Grove) . These projects/connections
are essential In supporting the densities necessary f6r the larger downtown area to be a
thriving center of activity. The Union District Plan could benefit both of these streets in cloAse
proximity to the areas set for" expansion .
• Downtown Meridian Neighborhood Pedestrian and Bicycle Plan
Developed by ACI-ID, this plan identified a ni� tuber of communi �v drive projects to enhance
the pedestrian and bicycle connectivity in the area . ACHD has been diligent in programming
and constructing these prof ects, and one o,f the last significant components is identl fled
sideievallt improvements on East 3 `1 Street. There are sidewalk gaps in the project area and
the jail crossing is unsafe and outright infipassable for some with mobility disabilities . one of
the pi''ojects in the Union District Plan would include street unpr•ovenents to East 3 "i Street
near Broadwwy, and including the rail crossing.
All of these plans are available on the City ' s Comprehensive Plan website at :
https : //mendiancity . org/plannin /compplan/resources .
Recommendation
Based on the analysis provided in. this memo , Staff believes establishing an Urban Renewal
District Plan for the Union Block prof ect 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 :

OF ORDINANCE PURSUANT TO I . C . § 50 - 901 (A)
CITY OF MERIDIAN ORDINANCE NO . 204 881
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MERIDIAN , APPROVING
THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE MERIDIAN REVITALIZATION PLAN URBAN
RENEWAL PROJECT , WHICH FIRST AMENDMENT SEEKS TO DEANNEX CERTAIN
PARCELS FROM THE EXISTING MERIDIAN REVITALIZATION PROJECT AREA ;
WHICH FIRST AMENDMENT AMENDS A PLAN THAT INCLUDES REVENUE
ALLOCATION FINANCING PROVISIONS ; AUTHORIZING THE CITY CLERK TO
TRANSMIT A COPY OF THIS ORDINANCE AND OTHER REQUIRED INFORMATION

AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE ,
SUMMARY OF FIRST AMENDMENT
The First Amendment (the " First Amendment" ) to the Meridian Revitalization Plan Urban
Renewal Proj ect (the " Plan" or the " Downtown District Plan" ) was prepared 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 laws and ordinances and was approved by the
Agency . The First Amendment seeks to deannex certain parcels from the Downtown District
Plan Proj ect Area (the " Existing Proj ect Area" ) . The First Amendment being considered for
adoption contains a previously adopted revenue allocation financing provision pursuant to the
Act that will continue to cause property taxes resulting from any increases in equalized assessed
valuation in excess of the equalized assessed valuation on the parcels remaining in the Existing
Proj ect Area as shown on the original base assessment roll as of January 1 , 2002 , that will
continue to be allocated to the Agency for urban renewal purposes .
The general scope and objective of the First Amendment is the deannexation of certain
parcels from the boundaries of the Existing Proj ect Area .
The First Amendment shall deannex the following parcels from the Existing Proj ect
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 1 A to the First Amendment and
generally depicted in the map below .
