July 6,2021 Page 4- 26 ITEMS MOVED FROM THE CONSENT AGENDA [Action Item] Simison: There were no items moved from the Consent Agenda. DEPARTMENT / COMMISSION REPORTS [Action Item] 23. Resolution No. 21-2273: A Resolution of the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Meridian, Idaho, Accepting that Certain Report on Eligibility for the Northern Gateway Area as an Urban Renewal Area and Revenue Allocation Area and Justification for Designating the Area as Appropriate for an Urban Renewal Project; Determining the Area Identified in the Report to be a Deteriorated Area or a Deteriorating Area, or a Combination Thereof, as Defined by Idaho Code Sections 50-2018(9) and 50-2903(8); Directing the Urban Renewal Agency of the City of Meridian, Idaho, also Known as the Meridian Development Corporation, to Commence the Preparation of an Urban Renewal Plan for the Area Subject to Certain Conditions, which Plan May Include Revenue Allocation Provisions For All or Part of the Area; and Providing an Effective Date Simison: So, we will move on to Item 23 under Department/Commission Reports. So, the first item up is Resolution No. 21-2273. Turn this over to Mr. Arial. Arial: Oh. Thank you, Chris. Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council. It's a pleasure to be with you. I'm also joined by our economic development administrator Tori Cleary and our team. So, two consultants. Phil Kushlan, who is a professional and a former executive director of CCDC in Boise, who helped us with the eligibility reports before you and, then, also Meghan Conrad, who is our specialty legal counsel in the urban renewal space. So, just real quick, a couple of points of clarification just on process. What you have before you are two resolutions. First for the Northern Gateway and, then, also for the -- the Union District and so we will take --- we will take them in stride. First the Northern Gateway one and as you will recall this is for just the eligibility reports that are kind of the step in the process that, then, kick us off to actually go and create specific plans for these areas. So, to the Northern Gateway one. Really, this kind of the -- the main point to consider here is the timing. The original district or the -- better known as the Meridian Revitalization District, the original downtown district is going to be sunsetting soon here in 2026 and there is a number of things that, quite frankly, still need to be -- to be done in this area and so these two new proposed eligibility areas -- or that -- these areas that were studied by Mr. Kushlan really are areas that we want to focus on and as you --as you know, the --these two areas have challenges. There is some older buildings and other things that make redevelopment and funding of redevelopment less feasible, if you will, and, therefore, you know, the engagement of Mr. Kushlan to do these eligibility studies was -- was a move forward. So, wanted to kind of just highlight the Northern Gateway area. Hopefully -- let me just pull up the -- hopefully it will show the -- so, here is the -- the area for -- for your viewing. This is -- as you can see the northwest here is the Meridian and Cherry Lane intersections. It includes that -- that big field up there Page 7 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 5 of 26 owned by Doug Tamara and, then, move to the -- to the east there and, then, down into the -- into the downtown and, again, this -- this area was chosen primarily because of -- not only redevelopment opportunity, but also opportunity to do pretty significant public infrastructure improvements as well that will help accomplish the -- the downtown -- Destination Downtown plan of MDC. The -- I would focus you now on the -- the report itself and these are the -- again, you will -- you will note there are ten specific code sections that qualify an urban renewal area for -- or an urban renewal district for eligibility and as you can see the Northern Gateway includes eight of those and so the -- the ones that I want to kind of point out are, number one, just the -- the number of deteriorated or deteriorating structures and in my mind this really is the key element of a redevelopment opportunity and, then, just to kind of point out another one that I think will -- will be addressed via the plan as we get into that, but, really, it's just the -- the subsequently impaired or rest of this sound growth of the municipality. So, number ten. As you know, there is -- there is a lot of pathways or roadways that don't quite intersect, there is connectivity issues, and, really, in order to get the downtown in -- in an oriented infrastructure path, not -- not only in the roadways, but also in the underground utilities. This is a -- this is one that I think is -- will be a focus of the plan going forward. So, really, that is a -- that is the -- the meat of -- of this resolution is to seek your approval of the report and, then, also to move forward with the plan creation in the Northern Gateway and with that, Mr. Mayor, I will stand for any questions on -- on this one. Simison: Thank you. Council, any questions? Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Maybe just worth repeating a couple of questions I asked earlier, but process wise just for the record I wanted to make sure that this allows us to move forward on creating a plan, but that Council will be reviewing and voting on the adoption of that future plan. Arial: Yes. Mr. Mayor and Council Woman Strader, that's correct. So, this --this adoption of this eligibility report just kicks off that formal plan -- planning process and we really do anticipate a robust process there and look forward to the input of Council throughout that. We do have scheduled opportunities for your input and, then, ultimately, Council's discretion to -- to adopt the plan. Strader: Mr. Mayor, one more. Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: And, then, the Northern Gateway District is -- the success of this feels very dependent on one particular large property. Do you feel like you will have buy in at that point in the process when we have a plan from that property owner that makes it more likely that this area will redevelop? Page 8 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 6- 26 Arial: Mr. Mayor, Council Woman Strader, great -- great question. So, yeah, you have highlighted a lot of the strategy well in that question. So, you will -- you will note that -- that far northwest property there, that's Doug Tamara's property and he's been very proactive with us in, essentially, annexing into the city and is in the process of doing his public outreach right now to do so. So, we anticipate a formal submittal from him to develop that property. Strader: Thank you. Simison: Council, any additional questions? Okay. Thank you very much. Are we doing the readings at this point in time or are we looking for action on the resolution? Baird: Mr. Mayor, we are hoping that you will take action on the resolution tonight so we can move forward. With that, Council, do I have any motions? Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: I think -- and maybe I'm misunderstanding what Ted said. But taking action on that this evening at our 6:00 o'clock meeting? You are looking to have action at that -- Baird: Actually, let me back up a minute. I don't want there to be any confusion about the --the item that's the second reading of the de-annexation, which is on the 6:00 o'clock meeting. That is actually a precursor to forming these districts that the de-annexation has to take place. So, I would consider your action at that -- at 6:00 o'clock is totally separate from these two and what you are doing -- and, of course, you have only heard the presentation on Item 23 and not yet 24, but we are looking to have you take action so that if, indeed, you wish to go forward that the consultant can start with the -- the plans. Cavener: Mr. Mayor, thanks, I appreciate it. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: It sounded like we can take action on Item 23. Simison: Correct. Strader: So, I would move that we approve Resolution No. 21-2273, resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the City of Meridian accepting the report on eligibility for the Northern Gateway area as an urban renewal area, revenue allocation area, and justification for designating the area as appropriate for an urban renewal project. Do I need to read this whole thing or -- that would be okay? Okay. Thanks, Ted. Page 9 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page , - 26 Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Hoaglun. Hoaglun: I will second the motion. Simison: I have a motion and a second. Is there any discussion? Borton: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Borton. Borton: For the record I will be continuing to -- to abstain from any consideration or discussion of both Items 23 and Items 24 on this agenda. Simison: Okay. With that any further discussion? Do we need a roll call or-- on one, Mr. Baird? Baird: In the interest of thoroughness, let's go ahead and do a roll call. Simison: Okay. Ask the Clerk to call the roll. Roll call: Borton, abstain; Cavener, yea; Bernt, yea; Perreault, yea; Hoaglun, yea; Strader, yea. Simison: Five ayes. One abstain. Motion passes. Or resolution passes. MOTION CARRIED: FIVE AYES. ONE ABSTAIN. 24. Resolution No. 21-2274: A Resolution of the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Meridian, Idaho, Accepting that Certain Report on Eligibility for the Idaho Block Annexation Area as an Urban Renewal Area and Revenue Allocation Area and Justification for Designating the Area as Appropriate for an Urban Renewal Project; Determining that the Area Identified in the Report as the Proposed Amendment Area Adjacent and Contiguous to the Existing Union District Revenue Allocation Area Within the City of Meridian, to be a Deteriorated Area or a Deteriorating Area, or a Combination Thereof, as Defined by Idaho Code Sections 50-2018(9) and 50- 2903(8); Directing the Urban Renewal Agency of the City of Meridian, Idaho, also Known as the Meridian Development Corporation, to Commence the Preparation of an Urban Renewal Plan Amendment, which Plan Amendment May Include Revenue Allocation Provisions For All or Part of the Area; and Providing an Effective Date Simison: Next up will be Item No. 24, which is Resolution No. 21-2274. Page 10 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 8 of 26 Arial: Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of Council. So, just continuing right on. This is -- as you know this is another area of downtown, which we feel is appropriate for eligibility review, as well as continued work in the interest of our downtown revitalization efforts. This is going to be annexed into the existing Union District that was formed last year and this study area, as you can see, is -- is only just a few parcels and the reason for this is that because it will be annexed into the existing Union District, which is small in and of itself, code only allows us to annex an additional ten percent of the existing district. So, that being said, this is a perfect alignment for an urban renewal project. That's, as we understand it, is already underway with some of these property owners and so I will kind of point out, just going back to the eligibility criteria, number one where it says the presence of substantial number of deteriorating -- deteriorating structures. We don't have a substantial number of them just by virtue of the fact that there is only a few properties here and a few buildings, but it is safe to say that this area that will be part of the Union District does represent this -- this criteria and as you can see there is four additional criteria that were met and as you recall only one is necessary to be considered for an urban renewal plan -- planning process. We do look forward to additional growth and opportunity in this area in particular, since its proximity to City Hall and what we consider the -- you know, the heart of downtown and we are looking forward to continued efforts in this -- in this regard. And with this, Mr. Mayor, Members of Council, this is also, again, seeking your approval of the eligibility report, so we can kick off the -- the additional planning effort to include this in the Union District. With that I will stand for any questions. Simison: Thank you. Council, any questions? If not, do I have a motion? Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: I move that we approve Resolution No. 21-2274. Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Hoaglun. Hoaglun: I second the motion. Simison: I have a motion and a second to approve Resolution No. 21-2274. Is there any discussion on the motion? If not, Clerk will call the roll. Roll call: Borton, abstain; Cavener, yea; Bernt, yea; Perreault, yea; Hoaglun, yea; Strader, yea. Simison: Five ayes, one abstain, and the resolution passes. MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Page 11 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 9- 26 Arial: Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council. 25. Mayor's Office: Budget Amendment in the Amount of $4500.00 for Production Room Computer Replacement, Software and Equipment Simison: Cameron, thank you. Next item on our agenda, Item 25, is a Mayor's Office budget amendment in the amount of 4,500 dollars. Turn this over to Mr. Miles. Miles: Good afternoon, Mayor and Council. Hope you are doing well. Quick budget amendment request for you all to consider. As you know the city maintains a video production room right over here. We have got a video production computer that, unfortunately, just recently blew up, which is unfortunate, but it's kind of serendipitous, guess, as we have learned all the technology needs through COVID. We need a new computer to replace that one. New piece of software to run the video production behind the scenes, develop -- and through the communications program they have also been working to account for various equipment that we haven't had that we have had a need for. Most recent example was the Lakeview Golf Course -- is it still on? Lakeview Golf Course town hall that we held, we actually borrowed a bunch of electronic equipment from the chamber. Just looking at our operations, looking at an opportune time to say what do we really need and we were in that process, figured we would come to you tonight because of the computer replacement and put them all before you for a 4,500 dollar amendment. With that I will stand for any questions. Simison: Thank you. And for the record this technically is in other government. Mr. Miles just is here from that standpoint from the Mayor's Office. Any questions? Councilman Bernt. Bernt: Mr. Mayor, I move that we approve the budget amendment in the amount of 4,500 for production room computer replacement software and equipment. Cavener: Second the motion. Simison: I have a motion and a second. Is there any discussion on the motion? If not, Clerk will call the roll. Roll call: Borton, yea; Cavener, yea; Bernt, yea; Perreault, yea; Hoaglun, yea; Strader, yea. Simison: All ayes. Motion carries and the item is agreed to. Thank you. MOTION CARRIED: ALLAYES. 26. Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Year 2021 Action Plan Presentation Page 12 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 10—26 Simison: Next up is Item 26, which is our Community Development Block Grant program year 2021 Action Plan presentation and we will turn this over to Crystal. Campbell: Thank you, Mr. Mayor, Members of the Council. So, I'm here for the fifth and final year for this current consolidated plan -- action plan. It's the PY-21 and it starts October 1st, 2021, and will go through September 30th, 2022. So, every year we have to submit the action plan and it's basically an application for the next year's funding. So, with this, the process to do it, we -- I mentioned that we have the Consolidated Plan, which is a five year plan. We take into consideration the analysis of impediments to fair housing and the market analysis for this and, then, the goals are developed while we work with stakeholders in the community to see what's needed. So, this plan will set up the framework for what we want to do for the next five years and, then, the action plan is what we are going to do each individual year to meet those goals at the end. The -- one of the core pieces of the CDBG program is citizen participation. So, that's what part of this is. We do two public presentations, a public comment period, and, then, a public hearing. So, this is the first of the two public presentations where we ask the public to give us feedback on how they feel we are doing with the goals that we have identified. We also consult with stakeholders. We have regular involvement with them and we also send our action plan to them for feedback. This year we have our PY-21 funds. HUD has said that they are planning on giving us 501,559 dollars and we will also be reallocating about 95,000 dollars from the current year's funding. The chart that's on there gives you kind of a breakdown of the activities that we have identified. Admin and fair housing, there is a federal cap of 20 percent and we are only using about 7.5 percent towards that. For public services there is a 15 percent cap and we are using about 7.5 percent for that as well. For housing activities it's around 29 percent and accessibility is 56 percent. For admin and fair housing we are looking at allocating 45,000 dollars and the majority of that is going to go towards our next five year plan. We have to do the housing market analysis and -- and we will also be putting some towards the Fair Housing campaign and we have just regular administration that we do. As far as public services, we have identified two projects that will be a total of 45,000 dollars. Both of these we have worked with before. The first one is emergency rental assistance through the Jesse Tree for households that are at risk of homelessness. The second one is with the Boys and Girls Club scholarships for extended care programs. For housing we are proposing allocating 171 ,000 dollars toward the homeowner repair program. This -- our current year is the first that we have done it and they have got one -- one home that they have almost completed and another one that's underway, so it's going really well and this will look more like what we are anticipating it to be going forward what we would need. We do have homebuyer assistance as a backup project, because it's just not viable in the housing market right now to put the funds toward this. We have had a hard time spending those funds the past -- past couple of years for that project. For accessibility we have identified the Chateau Park playground and pathway. With this we would be replacing the current playground with an all abilities playground and also developing a pathway that would connect the playground to the LMI areas that are right there. We also have a couple of backup projects. They are both streetlight projects. One is near Peregrine Elementary and the other one is near Meridian Middle. So, moving forward we are in the middle of our public comment period. That will conclude on July 20th at the public hearing. The following Page 13 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 11 of 26 week, then, I will submit the final report and resolution on the Consent Agenda and, then, as soon as that's approved, then, I will submit it to HUD. So, if there is any questions or comments people can contact me. I'm Crystal Campbell and this is my contact information. So, with that I will stand for comments. Simison: Thank you, Crystal. Council, any questions or comments? Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor? Perreault: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Hoaglun. Hoaglun: Just a quick question. When you were talking about housing, Crystal, you mentioned the housing market analysis. Can you describe, fairly high level, what that entails? Campbell: So, we are actually working with a consultant who will go in and kind of do an analysis of what we have right now, what's affordable, what kind of --just where it falls. Simison: Council Woman Perreault. Perreault: Thank you. On the section that has 20,000 allocated for rental assistance, that strikes me as maybe a little bit low for the need that's out there. So, can you help us understand how that number came to be. Was that the request that was made by the organization that's utilizing the funds or was there a limitation on how much could be contributed to that? Campbell: So, it was -- they actually requested a little bit more, but they have not been able to spend their funds as much. There is a lot of--there is a lot of funds on the market right now for rental assistance and it's -- it's been hard for them to identify Meridian households. They are just barely getting to their PY 19 CARES Act funds and they will be done with those in September. So, the group did suggest that they get a lower amount than what they had originally requested, but we will still have CARES Act funds if they do need more. Perreault: One more question, Mr. Mayor. Simison: Council Woman Perreault. Perreault: If I understand correctly with the homebuyer assistance, one of the challenges is that -- is -- is that the -- the amount of downpayment assistance, for example, that can be utilized just isn't enough to really help that homebuyer and so, you know, perhaps the program is permitted to use a 25,000 contribution towards down payment. That's not enough to -- to qualify for the loan types that they are seeking. Is that a general understanding or maybe one of the issues we are running into with a market? Page 14 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 12—26 Campbell: That and maybe -- I think it's more around the fact that the housing costs are so high that they are not affordable to the people who qualify with the income eligibility requirements. Perreault: Okay. Campbell: So, the houses that are on the lower price point, then, they can't get in there and get the offers on the house quick enough before somebody else comes in and bids higher than that and has cash. So, it just takes longer for our clients to potentially get into those homes. Perreault: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Perreault. Perreault: With those assistance programs there is -- the assistance -- the individuals who are applying for them have income limitations that have to be abided by; is that correct? And so, therefore, the housing market is, essentially, priced them out even with the assistance that can be provided; is that generally what -- Campbell: Yes. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Thanks, Crystal. I was curious actually if CDBG funds could be used for affordable housing projects in Meridian in other ways going forward. Just maybe a follow- up, but just what the options are and if there are other HUD funds available that we might be able to utilize toward building affordable housing, because to Council Woman Perreault's point, unfortunately, the housing market is so overheated here that these programs won't be effective. Campbell: Right. Absolutely. And that's a great question. We are kind of limited as far as CDBG specific funds go towards affordable housing. We can't actually build any. We could help with the soft costs, but we couldn't actually build it. However, if we were to work with some of the home programs, then, we may be able to and we are trying to create a consortium with the local communities -- the other entitlement communities, but we have to have all of our borders touching before we can do that and, then, we have talked about once that happens, then, we would be able to do the bigger projects and kind of rotate them throughout the Treasure Valley or whichever city it is. But also during our next Consolidated Plan we are really focusing on what we can do with CDBG, because it's -- it's going to be a few years before we can use the home funds in Meridian. So, we are going to try to get some viable projects that we can actually complete with CDBG funds. Page 15 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 13—26 Strader: Thanks a lot. Perreault: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Perreault. Perreault: If I may address Council Woman Strader's question. It's my understanding that some of the organizations that have applied for the funds they do have the ability to build projects here in Meridian with a different source of funds. So, our allocating what we have to provide other services for homebuyer assistance and whatnot allows them to free up some of the funds that they can use to build with and so that's part of -- Neighborworks Boise specifically is looking to do some of those projects here in Meridian, looking for property to do that. So, since they have applied for CDBG funds for other parts of those services they provide, I think that that's kind of indirectly helping using those funds, so -- Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Thank you. Yeah. It may be worth a future discussion, like a broader discussion at a later date, just on more direct -- direct efforts on affordable housing, as opposed to indirect efforts was my -- what my question was getting at. Thanks. Campbell: So, coming soon to a Council meeting near you, then, we will be presenting the housing market analysis. So, there will definitely be opportunities to comment on it and have a bigger discussion then. Simison: Council, any further questions or comments? Okay. Thank you, Crystal. 27. Transportation Commission: Pathway Crossing Concerns Simison: Next item on the agenda is Item 27, which is Transportation Commission pathway crossing concerns. I understand, Mr. Steed, you are going to introduce the topic or the next person who is going to talk about the topic. I will turn this over to you. Steed: Or both as the case may be. Mr. Mayor, Council Members, good to be here. I'm Walter Steed, president -- I mean chairman, rather, of the Meridian Transportation Commission. We have an issue that we would like to bring before you to see if we could possibly have some impact on a new pathway intersection design that ACHD has started using. The Transportation Commission looks at transportation budgets, plans, changes and development. We also listen to citizens, the police department, and staff regarding their concerns. This one is one brought to us by staff. The staff has met with ACHD on a couple of designs that have come through with a new way to have pathways cross intersections and they have concerns, talked to ACHD staff, and pretty much we were told we are doing what we have been told to do. It's got to go up another level before we Page 16 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page —of 26 can change anything. So, with that the Transportation Commission wrote the memorandum that's in your packet to explain to you what we are attempting to bring forward. We have looked at this at a couple of different meetings since May and currently talking about Eagle Road in two places, at Lake Hazel and at East Levin. Our understanding is this change is going to be a permanent way of doing these intersections and it -- it concerns us. It pulls the crossing of pedestrians and bicycles, who are using the sidewalk, back from the intersection. Ron Lancaster, a member of the commission, would like to present you with some details on the situation and look forward to your assistance. Thank you. Lancaster: Mr. Mayor, Council Members, it's a pleasure to be with you again. It's nice to see you all in person. Thanks for the introduction, Chairman Steed. So, I have a couple thoughts to share. I think Chairman Steed already addressed the topics pretty well. I will -- I will dive into a little bit more detail. So, I -- I titled this side path crossing concerns. It turns out a multi-use path or a shared use path is kind of a path on its own alignment, like the Boise Greenbelt, for instance, a path that parallels another alignment, like a road, is usually called a side path, so -- so, what -- what I'm asking -- or what we are asking of you today is to express to ACHD city preferences on these side path crossings. What we would like to see. And I will get into what our commission recommends here in a minute. As a matter of background, you may remember about a year ago last March all of you elected officials sent ACHD a letter stating your preferences for multi-use facilities that are preferred over bike lanes and narrower sidewalks. You may remember that letter. So, I took a few snips from it. So, your recommendation is -- is great, but it does present a few operational challenges. So, here on the screen at the moment is a conventional bike lane layout, for instance, where there is a lane on each side of the road that -- where the bicycle traffic runs parallel to the vehicular traffic next to it. Contrast that with -- oh. And where -- where there is right turning movements or -- or where there is conflicts between vehicles and bicycles, bicycles are moved away from that conflict. So, in this case moved to the left of the right turning vehicle. So, contrast that with a side path where, essentially, there is a new parallel two lane road next to the road and so on the left here with Driver A, a driver turning right from a minor street onto a major street was typically looking left; right? So, looking for vehicles on the left that -- that are going to be in conflict and won't see the bicyclist on the right traveling the opposite direction. Similar with Driver B. If Driver B's making a left turn from the major road to the minor road, they are typically looking down the road looking for a vehicle coming the opposite direction that will be in conflict and, therefore, can't see the bicyclist coming up behind their shoulder. Or Driver C making a right turn from the major road to the minor road is looking ahead for vehicles turning left in front of them or to the minor road for vehicles turning from the minor road, but isn't necessarily looking for the bicyclist again over their shoulder. Or this bottom figure, you know, a vehicle might block the path of a bicyclist or a pedestrian on this side path. So, those are some of the challenges. That's kind of the background of why this is even a topic. So, this is ACHD's solution. This is from their plans. This is what we have discussed in the Transportation Commission. So, their solution was to make a -- kind of a kink in the side path where it moves away from the intersection and, then, comes back tighter to the road. The idea here is that a vehicle can pull up to the intersection without blocking the path. That's the big reason for it. Or a vehicle turning from the major road Page 17 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page ——26 potentially has more time to see a user of the side path before crossing the side path. So, identify those conflicts. In your memo -- here is a couple of quotes from the memo in your packet that Chairman Steed has already summarized. So, Meridian staff has expressed concerns with ACHD staff about the new designs and the visibility conflicts it creates. ACHD staff are acting as they have been directed and any changes will have to come from the executive level. A little bit of information on where we think this design for ACHD came from. It appears to have originated from a Federal Highway Administration -- that's what FHWA stands for. So, an FHWA document entitled small town and rural multi-modal network. So, the title of that document, you know, sets off a few red flags immediately and that, you know, this -- this may not be applicable in an urban area. A second source for this is the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. They have a document called Separated Bike Lane Planning and Design Guide. So, this is a figure from the FHWA document showing this sort of treatment. I will note that in this treatment they -- they show a -- an elevated crosswalk. So, a speed table of sorts where the crosswalk is elevated to make it different than the -- the road that it intersects. Here is a figure from Massachusetts DOT, so very similar. This one showing a left turning vehicle has about a car's length before crossing the path. That brings us to this document from the American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials. So, the acronym for that is AASHTO. So, this is a consortium of the State Departments of Transportation. So, for instance, ITD is part of AASHTO and UDOT is part of AASHTO and Oregon and on and on. So, they develop these guides -- and -- and often these AASHTO documents are sort of the source documents for roadway design and so this is sort of the Bible of bicycle facilities and it admittedly probably lags a bit behind some of the other guidance documents. The AASHTO documents are usually a bit more conservative based more on research and experience, rather than trying out some new method or device. So, a few quotes of note from that document. On roads with speed limits of 50 miles per hour or greater, increasing the separation from roadway is recommended to improve path user comfort and potentially reduce crashes. So, that's for high speed facilities like a highway. These roads that we are talking about here in Meridian are not high speed facilities. That plan that I showed earlier was for Eagle Road where the speed limit is proposed to be 40 miles per hour with that project. So, it would fall into this next paragraph of lower speeds. So, this -- this one's important to note in that at lower speeds greater separation does not reduce crashes. I will stop there for a second. This is based on a study from the Florida Department of Transportation. So, if -- when we are having a conversation about safety or what's safest, you know, certainly crashes is what's of utmost importance. You know, near misses may be uncomfortable, but don't necessarily result in -- or they don't result in a loss of property or life; right? So, really, we are talking about crashes here. What -- what contributes to crashes or what prevents crashes. But they say at lower speeds greater separation does not reduce crashes. Therefore, the side path should be located in close proximity to the parallel roadway at intersections. So, motorists turning off the roadway can better detect side path riders. It's kind of the opposite approach as this FHWA document or the Massachusetts DOT document and that it's recommending to keep the path close to the parallel roadway to keep the side path users in the driver's direct view, rather than off to the side. Some additional concerns that are in the memo. You know, there is no urban examples of this or at least local urban examples and I have had some contact with Massachusetts DOT in preparation for this and they have sprinkled Page 18 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 16 of 26 this throughout their state where it makes sense. So, they may have some urban examples, but we certainly don't hear. So, this is kind of new for here. We are concerned about items that might impede either the view of side path users or the sight lines of drivers, you know, some -- some object that will obstruct the view in either direction, such as landscaping, fences, utility poles, signs, human behavior. There is potential concerns about -- we tend to like to take the shortest path if we are creating -- intentionally creating a longer path that may not be used. There is some concern that the design incorporates some of the elements that were shown in those -- those guides, but not all of them. For instance, the elevated crosswalk, that's not present in the ACHD design. I don't know why really. You know, perhaps it's snow removal, but it's -- it's something different; right? So, we are not quite comparing apples and apples. And some conflicting or -- or inappropriately used signs. And here is an example of this. So, this is back to that -- that engineering plan. This is a plan view. Noticeably absent from this is the stop sign. So, I added that. I don't know if that was an omission from the document or -- or what. But I would certainly hope there is a stop sign. But that kind of conflicts with the sign immediately upstream of it, the bicycle and pedestrian crossing warning sign. It may, you know, as designed here shield the stop sign, which is probably the more important of the -- the two signs. The sign circled there on the left is a sign that's reserved for traffic signal use and here it's used at a uncontrolled -- or at least a two way stop controlled intersection. So, admittedly, signs, markings, that sort of thing, that's --that's my specialty as a traffic engineer by education, experience, and employment. So, you know, those -- those things stand out to me. There is just a couple things that are a little weird, you know, that are a result of trying something new. And, then, finally, there is this concern about who yields to who. So, by law motorists must yield to pedestrians in a crosswalk. I chuckle or cringe a little bit every time I see the signs in the road that say stop for pedestrians, because that's not the law in Idaho. In Idaho it's yield to. So, there is law concerning what vehicles and pedestrians do, but not necessarily vehicles and bicycles, because they are both considered vehicles. So, presumably, we have created this new intersection where the rules of the road at intersections apply as far as whoever gets there first is served first or if arriving at the same time the vehicle on the right. So, driver's ed stuff. So, that -- that starts to come into play here, because there is no control at this crossing, because the control at the intersection is beyond where the crossing is. Okay. So, this brings us back to the action requested of this group. Provide a follow-up to the March 3rd, 2020, letter that I paraphrased earlier with city preferences for side path crossing. So, this -- I'm seeing this as less of a brand new document, but sort of a continuation of the letter that this body sent before to address further specific topics, meaning the side path crossings. So, it's the Transportation Commission's recommendation to essentially follow the AASHTO guidance, that the side path should be located in close proximity to the parallel roadway at intersections. So, the opposite of -- of the ACHD approach. But to keep the -- the side path crossing close to the road, rather than pull it back. And with that, Mr. Mayor, that is the end of my presentation. Simison: Thank you, Ryan. I'm going to start by just asking a couple questions. All in good fun, since we are here today. Does this type of experience happen when say roundabouts -- or does this happen anywhere in our city right now where roundabouts are not at play; to your knowledge? I mean that's the kind of the place where a roundabout Page 19 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 11 of 26 is, but it doesn't -- it doesn't go all the way through on the other side. So, I'm not exactly sure what that's looking like. Lancaster: Mr. Mayor, are you referring to the similarity of -- where at a roundabout the pedestrian crossing is a vehicle car back? Simison: Correct. Because that's really where this first came out, probably, was from -- from that element. So, I'm trying to get a better understanding about how this really -- is this all a function of design that is been spurned by roundabouts or is this-- is this separate from roundabouts, a new way that they are going to be looking at any crossing at any intersection, as a general rule, to your knowledge. Lancaster: Yeah. Mr. Mayor, I will answer that the best I can. I think they are -- they are separate topics. We have seen them come together in the same project, these two topics, but I think they are separate. It's my understanding that this is the way Ada County Highway District will be approaching these side path crossings now and in the future. Simison: So, any intersection, whether it's a roundabout or standard that's signalized, you would, essentially, put the pathway crosswalk behind all turning vehicle movements is how you would interpret their direction? Lancaster: Yeah. Mr. Mayor, that's a good clarification. I wouldn't think that we would see a difference in how crossings are treated at signalized intersections, but specifically at two way stop controlled intersections like this where one way is not controlled and the minor road has stopped. I understand that that's where they are applying this. Simison: So, one way could be to always just have regular standardized intersections to avoid these altogether as one option. Just an option. Not the option. Just say it for me. Just say it. I won't force you. I won't force you to do it. I won't force you to do it. I'm not going to put you on the record, but -- Lancaster: Mr. Mayor -- Simison: -- I could have gotten you there if I would have -- if I would have pushed it the right way. I'm not going to. Lancaster: I will say this. You know that I'm an advocate of roundabouts having designed and -- and, yeah, certainly I'm an advocate. You know, this -- this is a different topic and I'm, you know, frankly here representing the Transportation Commission. Simison: Yeah. I said it with some fun. But there are some similarities to the roundabout, which is kind of where this -- you know, trying to bring this into the larger context for Council to even consider from that standpoint. Lancaster: Yeah. Page 20 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 18 of 26 Simison: So, Council, now that I'm done with my fun, any other questions? Perreault: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Perreault. Perreault: It would be really helpful if you could share a little more context as to how ACHD he came to want to make this change in the first place. Did this come out of public concerns? Did this come out of changing standards nationally? Can you give me a little bit of history on that? Lancaster: Yeah. Mr. Mayor, Council Member Perreault, so I can't speak for ACHD, but I can give you a couple of guesses is probably the best I can do. You know, I think it's reasonable to say that ACHD is trying to be proactive in some of these bicycle and pedestrian design issues. They have their own pedestrian and bicycle committees. In fact, Commissioner Lewis from our commission is on the pedestrian advisory commission, whatever they call it, so it does seem like they are trying to be proactive there and they are probably seeking out some of these new documents and new guidance and trying them out. That's kind of the best guess that I have. The AASHTO document is dated 2012. So, it's getting a little bit dated now. You know, nine years old. These other documents are newer and so they are probably just seeing if they are any better. Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: Mr. Lancaster, appreciate you being here. Commissioners, appreciate you being here. The action that's being requested by the Commission, as I understand, comes with some encouragement from staff I guess. This is kind of a weird process that is playing out. I guess my question for you as kind of the Commissioner liaison to this particular project is a recommendation strong enough for the Commission to be satisfied that -- our staff, I guess, to be satisfied that the intended outcome will be achieved. Or do we need more stronger language in our request? Lancaster: Mr. Mayor, Councilman Cavener, I think we are approaching this from three different ways. You know, I have heard commentary from this body. Certainly our commission has had discussions about this, some of which -- or all of which you have been present for and I -- I understand that staff has concerns also. So, it's not one -- one body alone, it seems to be all three. As far as, you know, strength of wording, we all know that ACHD owns the roads and eventually-- or they can make their own decisions without our input and they, you know, fortunately, asked for our input on -- on a lot of things and for the most part they seem to be very good partners. So, as far as strength of wording, I don't know exactly how to answer that, Councilman, other than to say I do think it appropriate for the city to state its preference at this time and -- and at least formally make it known to the Ada County Highway District. Page 21 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 19—26 Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: Mr. Mayor, if other Council Members have questions, then, maybe I have got a comment at the end. Strader: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Strader. Strader: Maybe a comment or question. I'm not sure. But, yeah, one thing I want to say -- I appreciate that I think ACHD is moving in a direction of being more considerate of pedestrians and bicyclists. I can tell that they are working on that through their endeavors to have these protected bike lanes and which I think actually moves closer to our philosophy of having these detached pathways. So, I want to make sure we are giving them credit for some of the positive changes that they are making and I actually wonder if -- yeah, I think sending a letter is fine, but I guess there are several new ACHD commissioners and I'm kind of just thinking out loud. Would it be better to have some sort of a workshop or more of a meeting where we can understand what direction they are going in? Why they are recommending these changes. Maybe bring up some of our concerns, similar to how we have done recently with -- you know, with the West Ada School District, just so we can get better alignment between our two institutions. I'm a little bit leery of sending a blank recommendation about side paths coming from our perspective if I don't have the context of why they made that change coming from their perspective a little bit more. So, I just think of more of a dialogue approach might be better. Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: Just to bring a little historical approach to this discussion, we did have a pretty frank discussion on the public record with regard to this issue. I brought it up and I don't remember who the gentleman was I was speaking toward at -- at ACHD, but I got some ACHD commissioners involved and -- and for some reason they just -- they just disagree and I don't know how more blunt we could have been speaking to them about this particular issue, but the response at that time was that they needed to get -- what was it, like a -- like a -- like a VPO or something like -- did get a new PO or -- to change the -- the design and they said they were going to work on that. I don't know that ever came to fruition or not. But as a Council we -- we definitely let them know our opinion on this -- on this -- on this look. It was -- we were pretty frank. Simison: I would agree. I mean the conversation was there on Eagle Road. Again, similar. A little different, but same general concept, so -- Page 22 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 20 of 26 Perreault: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Council Woman Perreault. Bernt: I'm curious if the Commission has had conversations with any of the other cities that are part of ACHD and if there is similar concerns, if they are having similar conversations on their commissions and councils and if this is going to become a joint effort on the various cities' parts or if you can give us some idea if that's going, how that's going. Lancaster: Yeah. Mr. Mayor, Councilman -- or Council Member Perreault, as a commission we have not had any conversations outside of this room. I think Mr. Baird would probably slap our hands if we did; right? We -- we, essentially, follow the same rules you do; right? And that we talk about what's on our agenda. I don't know if city staff has or not, but as a commission we have not. Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: I know Brian's here. Brian, quick question. Maybe you can address it. Maybe you can state, you know, what formal communication we have had with the staff over at ACHD and what the response has been toward this -- this design aspect. McClure: Mr. Mayor, Commissioner Bernt, you have been part of -- most of those formal communications. We have exchanged many a-mails with other staff persons over there. Miranda has been most recently coordinating with them on the design, which is where this comes from, for Eagle Road from Amity to Lake Hazel. Her understanding of their direction was they are not interested in staff's opinion. Well, I shouldn't say it like that. They have been directed that they are going to do this and unless something else changes that this is what they have decided. To your earlier question regarding some of the other intersection treatments, they are looking into doing some -- they are actively working on some designs for signalized intersections and how they bring together turn lanes, bike lanes, sidewalks in different configurations, but they are not doing that work for these multi-use pathways. This is what they are doing. Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: Do we need to send another letter? Do we need to have a Zoom meeting? What would -- what would -- what would be your recommendation going forward with regard to this? Simison: Send the letter saying no more roundabouts and make everything straight the way it used to be? Page 23 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 21 —26 Bernt: That's not what my question was, Mr. Mayor. Simison: I think that would achieve a similar topic. Yeah. Because -- and I say this all honestly, at least where they are doing this now is where they are putting in their segment of roundabouts. So, from a treatment standpoint they are being consistent. That's the way I view this is that section along Eagle Road where you start having other turning movements where the vehicle is going to be in front of that turning movement, they are at least being consistent, which for drivers in that area I can actually support that concept. I don't support the larger concept, but I understand the reason why they are getting there from that element. But I'm here for the will of the Council on this one, because I feel like, you know, honestly, we can send a letter, we can have a joint meeting, I don't have a lot of positive hopes for the outcome for -- if the direction is we just want to go straight. McClure: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Yes. McClure: And if it helps at all, this configuration that they are doing now is the result of the city's desire to do multi-use pathways. A lot of this, as was indicated earlier, comes down to sort of definitions. If we want multi-use pathways, at least in these residential corridors, we can continue to see this -- this -- this intersection treatment at nonsignalized section -- cross-sections, regardless of whether it's a roundabout or a signal. This -- we will see this more on these residential corridors if we want to use the multi-use pathway. The alternative would be to do bike lanes. ACHD's isn't doing traditional bike lanes on these type of arterials anymore, they are doing raised or buffered bike lanes. I think their preference is raised. But for multi-use pathways this is what we will see. Simison: Brian, can we call them a template sidewalk without saying multi-use pathway to -- I mean it's really semantics at this point in time. I mean -- but in this part of our community people are going to ride on the sidewalk with their bikes. They are not going to get on Eagle Road with their kids. So, is it semantics? McClure: Mr. Mayor, from staff's perspective we have thrown every dart we can. Naming hasn't seemed to sway that. I have appreciated some of the dialogue on side streets or side -- side pathways today. You know, maybe a direct reference to AASHTO would help, but using a terminology just sidewalks doesn't seem to work, because it is also a bike lane at that point and they have some additional criteria they feel they have to meet when you have integrated the bike way into the sidewalk. Borton: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Borton. Borton: A lot -- a lot has changed since March of 2020. Most particular their position on bike lanes and what you just referenced. That was not an element in consideration when we elected to go towards the multi-use pathway option. I don't think any of us ever Page 24 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 22—26 contemplated that option would sacrifice public safety by any means. But the fact that they now have support for a different manner of providing bike -- bike lane design, does that necessitate us revisiting our preference for the multi-use pathway? McClure: Mr. Mayor and Councilman Borton, it's really up to Council. That letter was Council's request for Council's preference. If you guys have a new preference given the conditions and the constraints they are placing on us, then, that's certainly entirely up to you guys. Borton: Mr. Mayor, the reason for the question is the options I recall considering was that bike lanes adjacent to the roadway, which would seem to have real safety challenges, so the detached sidewalk was the -- the lesser of two evils. But the more safe manner of providing the pedestrian and bike corridor now that we have a --we have a different option available to us. But I'm supportive of staff and what the Commission is presenting. It makes great sense and the reasoning behind it is sound and I'm fully supportive of sending a letter in support of what you are all requesting, because, again, you have got a good basis for making the request, but the analysis has changed somewhat with their rates pretty monumental pivot in their policy, so -- does that necessitate us giving it a second look? McClure: Mr. Mayor, Councilman Borton, their design currently -- I don't know that they are unwilling to change it, they have just not heard from us a compelling reason to do so at the levels those decisions are being made. So, I don't know that you have to give up requesting that, if you would prefer them to use multi-use pathways, but if you feel you have reached the end of that limit, then, certainly, yes, you could -- you could go for a safer approach if you are of the mind that you are okay with certain demographics riding in the street with a buffered or raised condition, instead of just attached. Hoaglun: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Hoaglun. Hoaglun: Brian, just said something that was interesting, you know, and that was, you know, our compelling reason. The issue to me is we haven't heard a compelling reason why that is necessary. There is going to be conflicts no matter how you do it and maybe -- I was trying to wrap my brain around why would -- why would they do this and maybe it's because a bicyclist coming 20 miles an hour and you are going to make a right turn, you are not looking that far down and there is signs and all those issues that you bring up, Commissioner Lancaster, that if it's not detached there will be a crash and if it's detached there might be a crash. I -- but it would be nice to at least try to get an understanding of where they are coming from. I mean that's their business. You know, I think we ought to send a letter and with a note that -- let's kind of continue the dialogue and let's see if there is some understanding hear of each other's perspectives. It's just -- I'm thinking that it's just a situation we need to hear from them a little more than what we have heard and I think our approach is sound. We are -- we are about pedestrian safety and bicycle safety and it doesn't look safe and maybe they have some reasons for that, Page 25 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page——26 that it is safe, but I haven't heard them. I'm not -- I haven't heard anything that would convince me, so -- Simison: Well, maybe what we could do -- it's kind of back to what was discussed is we could invite ACHD staff here to come explain the rationale. Is this -- is where, again, you know, from a practical standpoint of having a commission to council discussion on design -- I mean they are not the experts either from that standpoint. I think it would be good for us to at least hear before having an engaged conversation by having a staff member in a joint meeting trying to explain to us and, then, having everyone give their difference of opinions. I mean, honestly, I go either way on this, because, you know, I go up to -- just think about every time I leave my subdivision currently there is a T intersection, how often do I have a conflict with someone trying to cross. It's frequent, no matter where you put your car, whether you inch up to get out or you leave it back, there is always potential conflict with somebody. So, it's just a matter of what our community knows or expects at that point in time. So, my bigger concern is that is this a one off, you know, we are creating unicorns in our community that the other people if they visit won't be knowledgeable about it. But that's what I would maybe recommend if we want to next step is let's hear from ACHD staff before we take any direction towards the commission officially, if people will be -- if people want to hear more information. Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: I appreciate the information given to us by the Commission. I appreciate their insight. I would agree that we need to speak to ACHD and to resolve this issue. I remember one of the reasons why they were thinking about not providing that, you know, change in design was because they were so far along in the process. But I know for a fact that there are other places in the City of Meridian where -- where they are already using this design and wanting to use this pathway type connection that could have been avoided, you know, if maybe there was better communication between the bodies and maybe that's what we are lacking, but I thought I was pretty crystal clear when we spoke to the -- to ACHD last year and it's just not -- the pedestrian connection isn't safe. It flat out isn't safe. It's not tried and true in this valley and what -- what -- what Councilman Hoaglun mentioned is that we are not hearing compelling evidence of why from them and I grilled that guy -- I don't know -- I wish I could remember his name. But I asked him multiple questions and he did not give me a response and so I say we do this really quick before we get another response from ACHD saying they are too far along in the process that they can't change it. This needs to change now in -- in every inch of our city. It's just not safe. So, I don't know what we need to do, Mr. Mayor, to make this meeting, but in my opinion it needed -- like it needed to happen sooner than later. Borton: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Borton. Page 26 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page——26 Borton: Very well might be some of the content of the letter that gets sent asking to -- to stop consideration of this change until a discussion happens. You articulated a lot of the reason why. The commission and our staff has articulated the reason why, so if that's the blunt ask and the follow up immediately with an invitation to staff or whatever data we might need to see if it justifies their position -- Bernt: We will even buy lunch. Borton: -- we are there. Whatever they want. Cavener: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: I tend to agree with the comments from -- from Council. I do not want to have the -- the opportunity pass and I kind of pinged on a comment from Council Member Strader about -- we got a new body and some of those commissioners may also not understand the why behind it and here is a -- I think two birds with one stone scenario. One they can learn, but, moreover, they can hear what cities are being told by their staff, so that everyone has a clear picture of how both staff are engaging with each other and how electeds are engaging with each other. So, yes, let's invite staff's presentation, but will go halfsies on -- on cheeseburgers if Council President Bernt goes halfsies on cheeseburgers and let's invite them for lunch. Let's also make sure that we can get it on our commissioners agenda or radar, so if they want to be able to sit and watch we can -- we can open this up and I think that there can be some good from it and, then, from that very well may come a subsequent follow-up letter with some specific asks that we talked to -- talked about as a body in that meeting. Bernt: Perfect. Cavener: And, then, Mr. Mayor, if I may? Simison: Councilman Cavener. Cavener: I just -- I didn't want the moment to pass. I know we all sit as ex-officios on various commissions and I'm sure you all think that yours are -- are good and well, but I'm here to tell you the Transportation Commission is the GOAT of commissions in Meridian right now. I have been able to sit as an ex-officio I think now for almost four years and a couple of years ago they said we want to start getting our hands dirty. We want to start doing. And we have seen a lot of the results of their good work and so at least with three of those commissioners here I want to say good job. Keep it up. You are keeping us busy. You are bringing forth good ideas that cause us to wrestle and noodle and we appreciate your service to the commission. Bernt: Amen. Page 27 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page—of 26 Simison: Agreed. Well said. Mr. -- Chairman Steed, if you want to come forward, since you are raising your hand. Steed: Thank you, Mr. -- Mr. Mayor, Council Members. Remembering the memo, it said that staff to staff, your staff to their staff. Your staff was told by their staff it's above their pay grade. So, I'm not sure that you meeting with their staff is going to get you much more. Our request was that this elected body comment, meet with whatever you wish to do -- their elected body, because that's where their staff has kicked it and which is why we brought it up to you. Thank you. Simison: Just --just speaking for myself, if you can't get their staff to come, though, I just asked you all to think about the direction you get to take from the staff here at the city that you value and you trust and take that into consideration, depending on how hard charging you want to go, if you expect us to want to see real results from that standpoint. I do think that there are -- that this will -- this will take time and conversation. It's not going to be a letter and we are going to solve this, so -- and, honestly, I don't think they are going to stop designing things if they are designing things, no matter what our letter says. If it's on -- on projects. So, we will take whatever action you want. But we need to be informed before we just take action. Otherwise, we are just going to get there and they are going to say, well, we have talked our staff and they agree and it's their decision and so we need to at least understand what their staff is saying and why in order to have decent arguments to make, in my humble opinion. So, with that I will do whatever direction Council wants. Letter, joint meeting, et cetera, and we can follow up tomorrow if we want. But I think we should at least -- Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Yeah. Councilman Bernt. Bernt: Can we send them a letter asking them to cease design of these --of these projects until we sit down and speak with them and we can schedule a meeting to -- to get to the bottom of this and come to an agreement and in that letter if we could ask that, you know, the decision makers are involved in the decision -- you know, the conversation that would help out, too. Simison: Well, we can if we understand what our ask is. I would ask staff to at least provide that, if what they believe our ask would be doing to what projects when and for how long. So, that's -- it's just -- it's as we learn it's more complex. Bernt: Sure. And it's a process. I get it. Simison: Yeah. But I will look to Brian to provide that information of what he is aware of where else this is being designed and impacted and moving forward, so we have a better understanding about what our ask would entail. Page 28 Meridian City Council Work Session Item#1. July 6,2021 Page 26—26 McClure: Mr. Mayor, I know that this is currently a topic for Miranda on Eagle Road. The section that hasn't been built yet between Eagle and -- between Amity and Lake Hazel. I'm not aware of any other corridors currently under design for multi-use corridors. I could be wrong, but I'm not aware of any. But I can -- I can make sure Miranda follows up and understands any other potential opportunities where that may -- or issues where that may be coming up. Simison: Thank you. McClure: Mr. Mayor, just so I'm absolutely clear and potentially Miranda understands completely, but I'm not. So, you guys are looking for a letter with some staff suggestion, direction, as to how we could potentially move forward with next steps? Or are you looking for a letter that more specifically asks them to do or stop doing something or would you like to have someone above project team staff come speak to you about why they are doing what they are doing? Simison: Yeah. I was going to say the answer is yes, Brian. I would ask -- Council President and I will discuss appropriate next steps tomorrow morning to figure out the best approach and timing. McClure: Thank you. Simison: All right. With that do I have a motion? Bernt: Mr. Mayor? Simison: Councilman Bernt. Bernt: I move that we adjourn the meeting. Hoaglun: Second the motion. Simison: Motion and second to adjourn to the meeting. All in favor signify by saying aye. Opposed nay. The ayes have it and we are adjourned. MOTION CARRIED: ALLAYES. MEETING ADJOURNED AT 5:44 P.M.

NOTICING Planning & Zoning City Council Posting Date Posting Date Newspaper Notification 4/30/2021 Radius notification mailed to properties within 500 feet 4/27/2021 Site Posting 5/7/2021 Nextdoor posting 4/27/2021 V. STAFF ANALYSIS A. Future Land Use Map Designation(https:llwww.meridianciu.or /�compplan) Medium-Density Residential(MDR)—This designation allows for dwelling units at gross densities of three to eight dwelling units per acre. Density bonuses may be considered with the provision of additional public amenities such as a park, school, or land dedicated for public services. The subject site is an approximate five (5) acre parcel in between multiple parcels that are already annexed into the City of Meridian. The site to the North is a city owned property reserved for a future well site that currently only has access to Meridian Road. To the South is the 113-lot Page 4 Page 184 Item#12. Prevail Subdivision (approved in 2019)zoned R-8 with a future access to Meridian Road via a collector street, E. Quartz Creek Street, and a temporary emergency-only access to Meridian Road. The Applicant on this application is the same as who received approvals for the Prevail Subdivision to the south therefore making Prevail North a continuation of the already approved Prevail Subdivision. Commensurate with the future land use designation of MDR, the Applicant is proposing Prevail North with a gross density of 3.42 units per acre; therefore,proposing a residential project at the low end of the allowable density. Because this is an extension of the Prevail Subdivision to the south, the Applicant is aligning the proposed lots of Prevail North with those to the south to ensure compatibility of lot sizes. Furthermore, due to the constraints of the site being deep but relatively narrow and having a waterway along the north boundary, the Applicant is only proposing homes along the south boundary of the site. Stafffinds the proposed project to be generally consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Specific Comprehensive Plan policies are discussed and analyzed below. 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.A1. The 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 annexation for approval by City Council and subsequent recordation.A final plat will not be accepted until the DA is executed and the AZ ordinance is approved by City Council. B. Comprehensive Plan Policies (https:llwww.meridiancity.or /g compplan): The applicable Comprehensive Plan policies are cited below with Staff analysis in italics. "Avoid the concentration of any one housing type or lot size in any geographical area;provide for diverse housing types throughout the City"(2.01.01G). The proposed project offers a density and site design that mirrors that to the south. Because of the relatively small lot size, strict adherence to this policy is not feasible and not in the best interest of the City when considering the constraint of the city owned property to the north. Staff finds the addition of 18 more lots matching the already approved project to the south as merely an extension of that project. "Establish and maintain levels of service for public facilities and services,including water, sewer, police,transportation, schools, fire, and parks"(3.02.01G).All public utilities are available for this project site due to the existing stubs abutting the site to the south within the right-of-way of the local street, S. Keyport Avenue. This project also lies within the Fire Department response time goal. However, the singular public road access is through the Prevail Subdivision to the south, currently under development. Fire code only allows 30 homes off of one access and with the two projects combined, there will be 135 homes off of this access. This is why, as seen on the plat and in previous approvals, an emergency-only access is required to Meridian Road and is located adjacent to the southern boundary of this plat. Despite meeting Fire Code, Meridian Fire has concerns over the approved access points and recommends requiring stub streets to both the north and east of this plat for future connectivity. West Ada School District has not made comments on this application but an additional 18 homes are expected to generate approximately 14 school age children which can be easily absorbed into the school system, according to the ratio of 0.8 kids per household. Staff finds that the existing and planned development of the immediate area create conditions for levels of service to and for this proposed project that meet code requirements. Page 5 Page 185 Item#12. "Preserve,protect, and provide open space for recreation,conservation, and aesthetics" (4.05.01F). The Applicant is proposing this project with .75 acres of qualified open space, or 14.3%. The area chosen for the open space currently contains an irrigation lateral that is to be rerouted and placed on the shared property line between this property and the city owned property to the north—the Applicant has discussed this with Public Works and received approval to do this work. Placing the open space in this location allows for a relatively long and large open space area on one side of the new local street and preserves the area above the lateral for maintenance and for adequate recreation. "Promote area beautification and community identity through context sensitive building and site design principles, appropriate signage, and attractive landscaping."(5.01.02C). As discussed above, the area of most notable open space is the large open space lot along the north property boundary. This open space area is proposed with adequate open area, a detached sidewalk, and appropriate landscaping to beautify the space while not being overwhelmed with trees that would otherwise limit the open area uses of the space. In addition, the Applicant will be required to continue the multi-use pathway and landscaping along Meridian Road adding to the area beautification along a major roadway. "Require pedestrian access in all new development to link subdivisions together and promote neighborhood connectivity."(2.02.01D).Proposed project is extending the attached sidewalks from the south to allow easy access to the future pedestrian facilities and amenities within Prevail Subdivision. "Ensure that new development within existing residential neighborhoods is cohesive and complementary in design and construction." (2.02.02F).As discussed, the Applicant is proposing lot sizes and lot lines that match those directly abutting the site to the south. This proposed density and lot placement should provide a cohesive project with Prevail Subdivision to the south. "Require new development to establish street connections to existing local roads and collectors as well as to underdeveloped adjacent properties."(6.01.02C). The Applicant is required to and is proposing to extend the abutting local street, S. Keynote, into the site and then "T"off the street by heading east and west with new streets for access to the proposed homes. In order to meet this policy as well as city development code, the Applicant is also proposing stub streets to the east and to the north. Further discussion and analysis on this are below in Section F,Access. Staff finds the Applicants proposed street connections comply with this policy. Staff finds this development to be generally consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. C. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are no existing structures on site beyond the existing irrigation lateral that bends south into the site from the north and runs along nearly the entire north property boundary line. D. Proposed Use Analysis: The proposed use is detached single-family residential with an average lot size of 6,677 square feet and a minimum lot size of 5,362 square feet. This use is a permitted use in the requested R-8 zoning district per UDC Table 11-2A-2. Due to the relatively small size of the development(5 acres),the project is proposed to be constructed in one phase but will be phase 3 of the Prevail Subdivision to the south. The proposed use, lot sizes, and lot alignment should provide for a development that is cohesive with the adjacent development to the south. Page 6 Page 186 Item#12. E. Dimensional Standards(UDC 11-2): The residential lots appear to meet all UDC dimensional standards per the submitted plat. In addition,all subdivision developments are also required to comply with Subdivision Design and Improvement Standards(UDC 11-6C-3). The proposed preliminary plat and submitted plans appear to meet all UDC requirements. F. Building Elevations(UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual): The Applicant submitted conceptual building elevations for the proposed detached single-family homes.Note that detached single-family homes do not require Design Review approval therefore Staff does not review these for compliance with any standards. However,the submitted elevations depict majority two-story homes with two-car garages and varying home styles noted as"Traditional,""Craftsman,"and"Contemporary."The elevations depict differing field materials of lap siding and stone with varying roof profiles offering an overall array of potential homes. G. Access(UDC 11-3A-3, 11-3H-4): Access is proposed via extension of Keyport Avenue, a local street stubbed to the southern boundary from the Prevail Subdivision. The submitted plans show Keyport extending into the site and then heading both east and west as Liberator Street to end in permanent cul-de-sacs at both ends of the site, in alignment with ACHD policy. The extension of all local streets is proposed as 33-foot wide street sections with the exception of a bulb-out along the north side of Liberator Street at the terminus of Keyport Avenue. This bulb-out is intended to be a traffic calming measure because the overall Liberator street, east-west, is greater than 750' in length(Liberator is proposed as approximately 908' in length from the center of the western cul-de-sac to the east property line). ACHD notes in their staff report that this type of traffic calming is acceptable but has not given a definitive approval of the location proposed on the revised preliminary plat. The Applicant will continue working with ACHD following any approvals received from the City and will likely be finalized with the final plat submittal at a future date. Staff is not concerned with the proposed location of the bulb-out and believes it will provide the desired traffic calming effects. Although,the length of the street from east to west is greater than 750' in length, S.Keyport intersects this street approximately half way to break up the block length.In addition,UDC 11-6C-3 notes that a dead-end street cannot be greater than 750' in length without an intersecting street.Because of S.Keyport intersecting Liberator,neither the west or east cul-de-sac is greater than 500' therefore not requiring any Council Waiver.It is admittedly an unusual road design but Staff considers it the most efficient design for livability and access when considering the site constraints of a large irrigation facility along nearly the entire northern boundary and topography throughout the site.Furthermore,there are no homes fronting along the north side of the proposed local street which further mitigates any Staff concern regarding its length on one side. The Applicant is also proposing two stub streets to adjacent properties; one to the north boundary out of the west cul-de-sac and one to the east boundary out of the east cul-de-sac. The original plat proposed both of these stub streets in the east quarter of the site but following conversations with Public Works the Applicant moved the stub street to the north to the west quarter of the site due to future plans for the City well site and topography issues. In congruence with this premise, the Applicant has also sited major topography issues with stubbing a street to the east boundary of the site and has specifically noted there could be a ten(10)foot elevation difference between the east stub street finish grade and the current grade of the Brighton owned property to the east. Page 7 Page 187 Item#12. Furthermore,the Applicant has also provided a conceptual drawing from the land owner to the east in order to show that a stub street to the east is not necessary—the submitted concept plan for the adjacent property does not show a street abutting the east property boundary of the subject site and instead appears to show an open space lot(see Exhibit VII.F). It should be noted that this concept plan is an older concept plan and the adjacent land owners do not have a solid plan in place for the area abutting the proposed plat. Staff supports the overall road layout and stub street locations as proposed on the revised preliminary plat. Though there is potential for topography to complicate the future road extension to the east, Staff highly recommends maintaining the stub street to the east for added future connectivity through the Brighton parcel to the east. This recommendation is based both in code(UDC I1-3A-3) and from recommendations of the Meridian Fire Department for better neighborhood connectivity and emergency response access as properties to the southeast develop in the future. H. Parking(UDC 11-3C): Off-street parking is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC Table I]- 3C-6 for single-family dwellings based on the number of bedrooms per unit. Staff will confirm compliance with these standards at the time of building permit submittal for each residence. In addition,the proposed 33-foot wide street section accommodates on-street parking where no driveways exist and where there is no bulb-out. Furthermore,no on-street parking is allowed within any part of either cul-de-sac at the end of the new local streets. I. Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-17): 5-foot wide attached sidewalks are proposed along the proposed streets except for that sidewalk adjacent to the large open space lot where 5-foot detached sidewalks with an 8-foot landscaped parkway are proposed instead. These sidewalks will be an extension of the pedestrian circulation of Prevail Subdivision to the south. The proposed sidewalks and parkway meet UDC 11-3A-17 standards and ACHD standards. In addition to the internal sidewalks,the Applicant is required to construct a segment of 10-foot wide multi-use pathway along Meridian Road,per the Master Pathways Plan. The Applicant is showing this required pathway segment within a landscaped common lot,per code requirements. J. Development Along State Highways(UDC 11-3H): The proposed project has frontage along Meridian Road/SH 69 which requires noise abatement per UDC 11-3H-4. The Applicant is proposing to construct a 4-foot berm with a 6-foot wall on top of it to total 10' above SH 69 centerline height, as required by code. This proposal matches what was approved in Prevail Subdivision to the south. Due to this segment of the wall being less than 300' in length, code does not require modulation in the wall plane. Other analysis regarding access standards of this code section are analyzed above in Section F. K. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): The required landscaping regulated by code within the proposed development are the following areas: that area within the proposed parkways along the local street extension(UDC 11-3A-17 and UDC 11-313); the common open space lot, and; the required landscape buffer to Meridian Road. The submitted landscape plans show landscaping in these areas as proposed. The proposed 8-foot wide parkway is approximately 740'in length on the revised plat requiring at least 21 trees (I per every 35 linear feet). The submitted landscape plan does not show compliance with this requirement because it is shown with less than 21 trees. In addition, the plat Page 8 Page 188 Item#12. has been revised since the original application submittal and the submitted landscape plans have not been revised to match the new road layout. Regardless, the Applicant should revise the landscape plans prior to the City Council hearing to ensure they match the revised preliminary plat and show compliance with the landscaping requirements. In addition, common open space is required to be landscaped with one(1) tree for every 8,000 square feet of open space. The large open space area is shown as 32,709 square feet in the development table on the preliminary plat. However, Staff's area analysis shows a figure closer to 36,500 square feet. Based on Staffs calculation, the minimum number of trees that are required within the open space lot is five (5) trees. The submitted landscape plans show six (6) trees proposed exceeding the minimum UDC requirements. The landscape buffer along Meridian Road is required to be 35'wide and contain the required multi-use pathway within it. The submitted landscape plans show compliance with UDC requirements for the number of trees, tree spacing/grouping, and additional vegetative ground cover. However, the Applicant is only showing a 25'wide common lot on the preliminary plat for the required street buffer. Therefore, the Applicant should correct both the plat and the landscape plans to depict the required 35'wide buffer. The Applicant is also proposing a micro pathway from the western cul-de-sac to the multi-use pathway and does not appear to have the correct landscaping. UDC 11-3B-12 requires that trees be placed on both sides of the pathway; the Applicant has only proposed trees on the south side of the pathway. Staff is not aware of any easements encumbering the north side of the pathway and the landscape strip appears to be the minimum 5-foot width. Therefore, the Applicant should move one of the trees to the other side of the micro path; Staff recommends the center tree of the three currently shown on the south side of this pathway. Although there is no code requirement for this change, Staff also recommends removing the shrub bed located in the center of the large open space lot. By removing this planter bed and the shrubs there would be an un obstructed area in the center of the open space lot that is at least 9,000 square feet in size; it is rare for a subdivision to provide an area this large for children to play in without obstruction. If the Applicant desires to still include the same number of shrubs as currently shown, they could disperse them to the planter beds shown further to the west and east on the landscape plan. L. Qualified Open Space and Amenities (UDC 11-3G): The subject site is 5.63 acres in size with a plat over 5.25 acres in size requiring at least one(1) amenity and 0.536 acres of qualified open space per UDC 11-3G-3. The Applicant is continuing a segment of multi-use pathway along the Meridian Road frontage which qualifies as the required amenity. Because this plat would be an extension of the already approved Prevail Subdivision,the Applicant has indicated these future residents will be able to use the other amenities and open space in Prevail. The closest amenity to this phase is an open space lot with a playground that is located due south from the Keyport Avenue extension and has a micro path in direct alignment with that amenity lot. Should Commission/Council find that this distance is too great for the future residents of Prevail North to walk to utilize the playground, Staff recommends they require an additional amenity with the large open space lot proposed on this subject site. To help ensure the amenities and open spaces are shared, Staff is including a DA provision that all of the common areas be owned and maintained by the same homeowner's association. As discussed previously,the Applicant is proposing open space in excess of the code required 0.536 acres. Overall,the Applicant is proposing the large open space lot along the north property boundary, a micro-path lot, and the landscape buffer to Meridian Road as qualifying open space—cumulatively these areas amount to 49,878 square feet,or 1.15 acres, approximately 22% Page 9 Page 189 Item#12. of the 5.25 plat area. However,not all of this area is qualifying after receiving the revised landscape plan that fences off a section of the open space lot that is impeded by the irri ag tion easement for the rerouted Carlson Lateral. After removing this area,the area of qualified open space is 32,120 square feet(0.74 acres) or 14%of the plat area. The proposed qualified open space still exceeds the minimum code requirements by approximately 10,000 square feet. Furthermore,this calculation uses the 25' landscape buffer width along Meridian Road instead of the required 35' width. Therefore,the actual amount of qualified open space should be slightly larger. the eeffeet. at f,, alifie Staff Utilized the let S-L-es shown oil the 191at te ebtain the above ealeulatiens d requirenients. Stae(fsupports the proposed and revised open space exhibit and believes it offers adequate area for recreation and relaxation. M. Fencing(UDC 11-3A-61 I1-3A-7): All fencing is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7. Fencing is proposed as shown on the landscape plan and appears to meet UDC standards as proposed. Should any fencing locations need to be revised to accommodate any irrigation easement requirements, the Applicant should notify Staff and submit revised drawings at the applicable future application submittals (i.e. final plat and/or final plat signature). N. Waterways(UDC 11-3A-6): The subject site contains a large section of the Carlson Lateral, an irrigation lateral maintained by Boise Project Board of Control(BPBC). The Applicant is proposing to both reroute and pipe this lateral consistent with the desires of the City Engineer for the purpose of benefiting both this Applicant and the City owned property bordering the subject site on the north boundary.Upon further discussions with BPBC and in coordination with Public Works,the Applicant is proposing to pipe the entire segment of the lateral on both properties from Meridian Road east to nearly the east property boundary, as shown on the submitted preliminary plat in Exhibit VII.B. Piping this lateral will allow for more buildable area of the subject site, fix some of the topography issues for the City owned property, and allow for easier maintenance by BPBC. Staff supports the piping of this irrigation lateral and the proposed plan complies with UDC 11-3A-6. O. Pressurized Irrigation(UDC 11-3A-15): The Applicant is required to provide a pressurized irrigation system for the development in accord with 11-3A-15. The Applicant is showing a pressurized irrigation system on the landscape plans commensurate with code requirements. Land Development will review these plans in more detail at a later date when specific irrigation plans are submitted with the Final Plat application. VI. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the requested annexation and zoning with the requirement of a Development Agreement and approval of the requested preliminary plat application per the Findings in Section IX of this staff report.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ANALYSIS (Comprehensive Plan) The Future Land Use Map(FLUM)contained in the Comprehensive Plan designates this property as Low Density Residential (LDR). The LDR designation allows for the development of single-family homes on large and estate lots at gross densities of three dwelling units or less per acre. These areas often transition between existing rural residential and urban properties. Developments need to respect agricultural heritage and resources, recognize view sheds and open spaces, and maintain or improve the overall atmosphere of the area. The use of open spaces,parks, trails and other appropriate means should enhance the character of the area. The proposed development consists of a total of 50 single-family detached dwellings on large lots [i.e. 12,000 square foot(s.f.)minimum] on 39.01 acres of land at an overall gross density of 1.76 units/acre,which falls within the density range desired in LDR designated areas. This property abuts a County subdivision,Shafer View Estates,to the south and will provide a transition to future urban properties to the north,zoned R-4 and.R-8. The following Comprehensive Plan Policies are applicable to this development: • "Encourage a variety of housing types that meet the needs, preferences, and financial capabilities of Meridian"s present and future residents."(2.01.02D) Only one housing type, single-family detached, is proposed which Staff believes is appropriate dare to the large lot sizes and density desired in LDR designated areas. The variety o,j lot sizes (i.e. 8,600-23,600 sf) proposed will provide for diversity in stvles ❑f homes, which Stuff believes will contribute to the variety of'housi►rg in the City to meet the preferences and financial capabilities ofMeridia►i:s present andfiature residents. "Pen-nit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities and urban services at the time of final approval, and in accord with any adopted levels of service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F) City rater and sewer service is available and can be extended by the developer with development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. ■ "Encourage compatible uses and site design to minimize conflicts and maximize use of land" (3.07.00) The proposed density and lot sues should be compatible with the rural residential horneslproperties to the south on 1+ acre lots in the Count.1,sand facture urban residential development to the worth and east in the Ct.'tj7 Page 6 Page 232 Item#13. • "Ensure development is connected to City of Meridian water and sanitary sewer systems and the extension to and through said developments are constructed in conformance with the City of Meridian Water and Sewer System Master Plans in effect at the time of development." (3.03,03A) The proposed development will connect to City water and sewer systems; services are required to be provided to and though this development in accord with current Citv plans. • "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities and urban services at the time of final approval,and in accord with any adopted levels of service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F) Cite rater and sewer-services are available to this site and can be extended bIv tine developer with development in accord with UDC 11-3A-71, The emergency response times for Police Dept. and Fire Dept. meets the established goals. + "With new subdivision plats,require the design and construction of pathway connections.easy pedestrian and bicycle access to parks,safe routes to schools,and the incorporation of usable open space with quality amenities."(2.02.01A) A 111.1oot wide multi-use pathway is proposed within the street baffler along S. Meridian Rd.ISH--69 as required b-v the Pathwa}?s Master Plan and UDC 11-3H-4C.4. A total of 4.05 acres ofquali ed open space is proposed along with qualiti,amenities (i.e. .sports court, gazebo, tot lot, multi-use pathw v). + "Evaluate comprehensive impacts of growth and consider City Master Plans and.Strategic Plans in all land use decisions (e.g.,traffic impacts,school enrollment,and parks)." (3,01.01A) Tire TraIf c Impart Studv(TYS) was not required by ACHD for-this development. WASD submitted comments stating that approximately 35 school raged children are estimated to be generated by this development,-enrollment at Alary McPherson Elementary School and Victor} Middle School is currently under capacity and Mountain View High School is over capacity,(see Section V11I.1).According to the Community Development's school impact analysis, enrollment at )Victory Middle School will be slightly over capacity at build-out of building perrrtits already issued in this area at 104%(Mary McPherson will be 95%and Mountain View will be 109%) (see Section VIIIJ). The closest Citv Park to this site is Discovery Park, consisting of 77-acres, to the southeast on E. Lake Hazel Rd., 1I4 mile east of'S. Locust Grove Rd. A_ifture Cihl Park is designated orz the FLUM within a halfmile of this site to the west. • "Require all development to create a site design compatible with surrounding uses through buffering, screening,transitional densities,and other best site design practices."(3.07.01 A) The proposed site design features a 1:1, 2:1 and 3:1 transition in proposed lots to existing Iots in Shafer View Estates to the south. These lots are separated by an existing 41;foot wide easenient.for•the McBirney Lateral which provides an adder)bu&-between rural lots and proposed r.trban lots. • "Require urban infrastructure be provided for all new developments,including curb and gutter, sidewalks, water and sewer utilities."(3.03.036) Urban sewer and water iniastructure and curb, gaper-and sidewalks are proposer)as required with this development.

UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE ANALYSIS UI A. Annexation: The proposed annexation is for 40.48 acres of land with R-2 (I0.66 acres)and R-4(29.82 acres) coning districts, which includes adjacent right-of-way to the section line of S. Meridian Rd.ISH- 69 and to the centerline of E. Quartz Creek St. A total of 50 residential dwelling units are proposed to develop on the site at an overall gross density of 1.76 units per acre consistent with the associated LDR FLUM designation for the site. Although the proposed density is more consistent with an R-2 (Low Density Residential)coning district,the Applicant requests R-4 in order to provide a transition in lot sizes between the existing rural residential subdivision to the south(Shafer View Estates)and the future urban residential subdivision approved to the north(Prevail Subdivision),zoned R-8. Larger lots are proposed adjacent to the southern boundary that gradually transition to smaller lots to the not-tit. The property is contiguous to City annexed land and is within the City's Area of City Impact boundary. A legal description and exhibit map of the overall annexation area along with individual legal descriptions and exhibit reaps for the R-2 and R--4 zoning districts are included in Section VIII.A. The City may require a development agreement(DA)in conjunction with an annexation pursuant to Idaho Code section 67-6511 A. To ensure future development is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and with the development plan proposed with this application, Staff recommends a new DA is required with this application,containing the provisions noted in Section VIII.A, as discussed below. B. Preliminary Plat: The proposed plat is a re-subdivision of Lot 4, Block 1, Shafer View Estates,developed in Ada County and recorded in 2002 (.Bk. 84,Pg. 9403).This lot was deed restricted and was only allowed to be used for open space as defined in the non-farm development section of the Ada County code and the planned development section of the Ada County code for a period of not less than 15 years from the recording date of the subdivision plat. The required time period has elapsed and the lot is now eligible for redevelopment. The proposed preliminary plat consists of 50 buildable lots and 10 corrutron lots on 39.01 acres of land in the R-2 and R4 zoning districts.The subdivision is proposed to develop in three(3) phases as shown on the phasing plan in Section VII.B. The first and second phases consist of 28.35 acres and is proposed to develop with 50 single-family detached homes at a gross density of 1.76 units per acre and a net density of 3.30 units per acre with an average lot size of 13,444 s.f.The third phase consists of 10.66 acres and is proposed to be platted as one large lot that will be developed at a later date under a separate application by the property owner. This portion of the site is under separate ownership from the rest of the site and was previously illegally split off; therefore. it's ineligible for development until included in a subdivision to create a legal lot for development purposes. Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are no existing structures or site improvements on this property other than a private drainage facility on Lot 6, Block 6. - Page 8 Page 234 Item#13. Proposed Use Analysis: Single-family detached dwellings are listed as a principal permitted uses in both the R-2 and R-4 zoning districts per UDC Table 11-2A-2: Allowed Uses in the Residential Districts. Dimensional Standards (UDC Il-2j): Development of the proposed Iots is required to comply with the dimensional standards of the R- 2 district in UDC Table 11-2.4-4 and the R-4 district in (UDC Table 11-2A-5), as applicable. 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 and block face. Block faces are limited to 750' in length without an intersecting street or alley but may extend up to 1,000' where a pedestrian connection is provided as set forth in UDC 11-6C-3F.3. City Council may approve a block face up to 1,200' in length where block design is constrained by certain site conditions that include a large waterway orinrigation facility;block faces over 1,200 feet require a waiver from Council. A 90 degree tune in a roadway may constitute a break in the block face; however, overall pedestrian and vehicular connectivity will be considered when evaluating the appropriateness of block lengths greater than 750' in length—additional pedestrian and/or roadway connections may be required. The face of Block 3 exceeds 1,200' and does not provide a pedestrian connection other than the emergency access driveway which may serve as a pedestrian connection between the proposed subdivision and Shafer View Estates to the south. The Applicant requests City Council approval of the proposed block length due to existing site constraints that include the following: 1) the narrow configuration of the subject property; 2)the location of the McBirney Lateral, a large waterway/irrigation facility, that runs along the southern boundary and through the western portion of the proposed subdivision; and 3) the existing Shafer View subdivision that abuts the site to the south, south of the lateral,which does not include any pedestrian pathways or stub streets to this property. It not approved,the plat should be reconfigured to comply with this standard.An emergency access road.far Fire Dept. is proposed behveen the end of the cul-de-sac and E. Shaer View Rd. but it's not a public access. The cul-de-sac length complies with UDC standards. Access(UDC 11-3A-31 Direct lot access is proposed via E. Shafer View Dr., an existing local street along the southern boundary of the site, for the lots south of the McBirney Lateral; the lots north of the lateral will be accessed via two(2)accesses from E. Quartz Creek St., a planned collector street along the northern boundary of the site. The UDC(11-3A-3)restricts and limits access points to collector streets where access to a local street is available. Local street access is not available to the northern portion of the proposed development. Due to the configuration of the property, without the easterly second access,the cul-de-sac would exceed the maximum length standard of 500' allowed by the UDC(11-6C-3B. ).Therefore, Staff is supportive of the proposed accesses. An emergency access for the Fire Dept. is proposed between the cul-de-sac and E. Shafer View Drive. A public street connection is not proposed to E. Shafer View Dr. for several reasons, including the following: 1)residents in Shafer View Estates were strongly opposed to the connection; 2) modification to the McBirney Lateral would be necessary to design a public road in that location and the lateral is under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR)and the process for modifications to their canal and an encroachment on their easement is very tithe consuming(i.e. 12+--months) with no guarantees of approval; 3) approval from Nampa-Kuna Page 9 Page 235 Item#13. Irrigation District would also be needed has they have irrigation piping located in this area as well;4) a public road through that area would require a new pump system for the Shafer View Estates irrigation system as the road would go through the existing pump system—moving the pump system would also require moving/modifying a large BQR irrigation pipe that feeds the irrigation pump station. and 5)the cost of design and irrigation infrastructure work required to put in a public road is estimated to be$100,000.00 to $150,000.00(see Applicant's gmianr-tion for more detail). For these reasons, Staff does not recommend a connection is provided. Access to the R-2 zoned portion of the site is anticipated to be provided from the east as that portion of the site is planned to develop with the Apex development to the east. Direct lot access via S. Meridian Rd./SH-69 and E. Quartz Creek St. is prohibited. Parking(UDC 11-3(1: Off-street parking is required to be provided in accord with the standards listed in UDC Table I I- 3C-6 for single-family detached dwellings based on the number of bedrooms per unit. The proposed street sections accommodate on-street parking on both sides of the streets for guests in addition to driveway parking spaces on each lot. Staff is of the opinion sufficient parking can be provided for this development. Pathways(UDC 11-3A-8): A 10' wide detached multi-use pathway is proposed as required within the street buffer along S. Meridian Rd./SH-69 per UDC 11-3H 4C.4 and the Pathways Master Plan. The pathway is required to be placed in a 14-foot wide public use easement,which shall be submitted to the Planning Division prior to submittal for City Engineer signature on the final plat(s)for Phase 1. If the pathway will be located entirely within the right-of-way, a public pedestrian easement is not needed. Sidewalks(UDC 11-3A-17): Sidewalks are required to be provided adjacent to all streets as set forth in UDC 11-3A-17. Where the multi-use pathway is required along S. Meridian Rd./SH-69,the pathway may take the place of the sidewalk, A combination of attached and detached sidewalks are proposed within the development as depicted on the landscape plan. Parkways(UDC 11-3A-17): Eight-foot wide parkways are proposed along all internal public streets where detached sidewalks are proposed.All parkways should be constructed in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11- 3.4-17E. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B]: A 35-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to S. Meridian Rd./SH-69, an entryway corridor; and a 20-foot wide street buffer is required adjacent to E. Quartz Creek St.,a collector street,as proposed. Landscaping is required to be installed within the buffer per the standards listed.in UDC I 1-3B-7C,which require buffers to be planted with a mix of trees and shrubs, lawn, or other vegetative groundcover. Street buffer landscaping is proposed in excess of UDC standards as shown on the landscape plan in Section VII.C. Common open space is required to be landscaped in accord with the standards listed in UDC I I- 3G-3E. At a II1ininninr, one tree per 8,000 square feet of common area is required to be provided along with lawn or other vegetative groundeover. Landscaping is proposed in excess of UDC standards as shown on the landscape plan in Section VII.C. Landscaping is required adjacent to the pathway along S. Meridian Rd./SH-69 per the standards in UDC 11-3B-12C. A 5' wide landscape strip is required on both sides of the pathway planted with a inix of trees,shrubs, lawn and/or other vegetative ground cover. The Landscape Page 10 Page 236 Item#13. Requirements table should include the linear feet of pathway with the required vs.proposed number of trees to demonstrate compliance with UDC standards. Landscaping is required within parkways per the standards listed in UDC 11-3,4-17 and 11-38- 7C. The Landscape Requirements table should include the linear feet of parkways within the development with the required vs.proposed number of trees to demonstrate compliance with UDC standards. There are existing trees on this site at the fronts of Lots 1-5, Block 6 along E. Shafer View Dr. If any of these trees are proposed to be removed, mitigation may be required per the standards listed in UDC 11-313-1 OC.5. Contact the City Arborist,Matt Perkins,prior to removing any trees from the site to determine mitigation requirements. Noise Mitigation{UDC 11-3H-4D]: Noise abatement is required for residential uses adjoining state highways as set forth in the standards listed in UDC 11-3H-4D. A 4-foot tall berm with a 6-foot tall solid wail by Simtek is proposed along S.Meridian Rd.as noise abatement as depicted on the detail on Sheet L1.0 of the Landscape Plan.Architectural elements are proposed to break up monotonous wall planes as required, A detail of the pro posed development.wall Mat demonstrates eomplianee with the stfindards lisied in UDG 11 3H 4D should he su hmtted with the final plat for the first phase of Depicted on the revised landveape plan. Qualified Open Space(UDC 11-3G'): A minimum of 10%qualified open space meeting the standards listed in UDC I I-3G-3B is required for developments over 5 acres in size. Based on the area of the plat,39.01 acres,a minimum of3.90 acres of qualified open space is required. A total of 5.26 acres(or 15.55%)of common open space is provided within the overall development,4.05 acres for 14.27%)of which is qualified per the standards in UDC 11-3G-3B. which exceeds UDC standards (see open space exhibit in Section VII.D). Qualified open space consists of half the street buffer along S. Meridian Rd.ISH-69, all of the street buffer along E. Quartz Creek St., 8-foot wide parkways, linear open space,and open grassy areas of at least 50' x 100' in area. Lot 9, Block 3 does contain a pond but it does not encompass more than 25%of the required open space area as required. The pond is required to have recirculated water and should be maintained such that it doesn't become a mosquito breeding ground as set forth in UDC 11-3G-3B.7. Qualified Site Amenities{UDC 11-3G1 A minimum of one(1)yualifed site amenity is required for developments over 5 acres in size and up to 20 acres,with one (1)additional amenity required for each additional 20 acres of development area. Based on a total of 39.01 acres of development area, a minimum of one(1) qualified site amenity is required. A multi-sport court,tot lot,gazebo shade structure and segment of the City's multi- use pathway system is proposed in excess of UDC standards. Storm Drainage: An adequate stonn drainage system is required in all developments in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. Design and construction is required to follow Best Management Practices as adopted by the City. The Applicant submitted a Limited Geotechnical Engirncering Report for the subdivision. The preliminary plat depicts an existing private drainage facility and existing&proposed ACHD drainage facilities and easements. Page 1 1 Page 237 Item#13. Pressure Irrigation(UDC 11-3A-1S): Underground pressurized irrigation water is required to be provided for each and every lot in the subdivision as required in UDC 11-3A-15. Utilities(UDC 11-3A-21}: Utilities are required to be provided to the subdivision as required in UDC 1 1-3A-21. Waterways (UDC 11-3A-b7: The McBirney Lateral is a large open waterway that lies within a 41-foot wide easement along the southern boundary of the site and through the western portion of the site. Another waterway (38' wide) xists on the eastern portion of the site between.the proposed R-2 and R-4 zoned property witl4in., ►� e.. ,;ao xra rin a arrin o „• the Applicant verified with the Boise Proiect Board of Control that the waterway is not within an easement. This project is not within the flood plain. The UDC allows waterways such as this to remain open when used as a water amenity or linear open space as defined in UC 11-1 A-1; otherwise, they are required to be piped or otherwise covered per UDC l 1-3A-6B. The decision-snaking body may waive this requirement ifit finds the public purpose requiring such will not be served and public safety can be preserved. The Applicant is not proposing to improve the McBirney Lateral as a water amenity or linear open space but is proposing to install a 6-font tall wrought iron fence along the waterway to deter access to the waterway and ensure public safety.The Applicant requests approval of a waiver from Council to allow the waterway to remain open and not be piped. The Applicant states the Boise Project Board of Control opposes any improvements within their right-of-way.The other waterway should be piped or improved as a water amenity or linear open space as required. Fencing(UDC 11-3A-6 and 11-3,4-71: Ali fencing is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-6C for fencing along waterways and the general fencing standards in 11-3A-7. A mix of 6-font tall wrought iron and 6-foot tall solid vinyl fencing is proposed adjacent to common areas; 6-foot tall wrought iron fencing is proposed along the McBirney Lateral.There appears to be gaps in the fencing along the lateral on common lots that abut the waterway; fencing should he included in these areas to prevent access to the waterway and to ensure public safety. Building Elevations (UDC 11-3.4-19 1 Architectural Standards 3101111al]: Conceptual building elevations have not yet been prepared for this development. However,the Applicant did submit several sample photos of 2-story homes that will be similar to those constructed in this development, included in Section VILE. Single-family detached dwellings are exempt from the design standards in the Architectural Standards Manual. Because homes on lots that abut S.Meridian Rd.and E. Quartz Creek St.will be highly visible,the rear and/or side of structures on lots that face those streets should 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 exenzpt.from this re yuirenze►►t. Page 12 Page 238 Item#13. VI. DECISION A.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION Modification to the Use Area Plan in the Development Agreement(Inst. #2019-028376)to include financial uses in the area currently designated for specialty retail and restaurant uses. II. SUMMARY OF REPORT A. Applicant: Mandie Brozo, CSHQA—200 Broad St.,Boise,ID 83702 B. Owner: Dave McKinney,High Desert Development Linder Village, LLC—2537 W. State St., Ste. 110, Boise,ID 83702 C. Representative: James Marsh, CSHQA—2537 W. State St., Ste. 110,Boise, ID 83702 III. STAFF ANALYSIS The Applicant proposes to amend the existing Development Agreement(DA)(Inst. #2019-028376)to update the Use Area Plan to allow for a financial institution in the area currently designated for specialty retail and restaurant uses at the northwest corner of the site.No other changes to the uses shown on the Plan are proposed.The Use Area Plan in Section V.B is included in the existing DA;the Plan in Section V.E is proposed. Substantial compliance with the approved Use Area Plan is required as a provision of the DA (i.e. #5.1a) to ensure a minimum of three (3) land use types [i.e. commercial (includes retail, restaurants, Page 1 Page 279 Item#14. etc.), office, residential, civic (includes public open space, parks, entertainment venues, etc.) and industrial] are provided within this development consistent with the guidelines in the Comprehensive Plan for the associated Mixed Use—Community(MU-C) Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation for this site. The conceptual development plan and site circulation plan have also been updated to reflect the proposed reconfiguration of the site layout in the area where the financial institution is planned; the adjacent building footprint to the east now includes a drive-through. The pedestrian circulation plan depicts reconfigured pathway locations consistent with the new site design. The proposed change to include financial along with the retail and restaurant uses will still ensure a mix of land uses are provided as desired in the MU-C. Because the proposed change increases the types of uses planned for this area which is desired, Staff is supportive of the requested amendment to the DA. IV. DECISION A.

STAFF ANALYSIS A. DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT MODIFICATION(MDA) A modification to the existing Development Agreements(Inst. #2017-012608 &#2018-012456), is requested for the purpose of including a new development plan for this area of the Movado Greens development to consist of both commercial and residential uses instead of solely commercial. The existing DA provisions are still applicable as they were mostly related to the larger Movado development overall. The existing DA includes a concept plan for this area from 2017 when the property received DA Modification approval to change the number and layout of apartment units along Overland,now known as the Silverstone Apartments. The existing concept plan depicts a number of office,retail, and general commercial buildings. This concept plan was intended to maintain a commercial presence within this area of the Mixed-use Regional designation despite being removed from the main commercial area at the intersection of Eagle and Overland. The Applicant believes the existing concept plan for this area of the agreement is not feasible with that amount of commercial square footage being separated from the Eagle/Overland area by residential and is too far east in general to accommodate 56,000 square feet of commercial space. Therefore,the Applicant is proposing a new concept plan depicting three commercial pad sites and 66 multi-family dwellings in the form of townhome style dwellings. The commercial is now proposed at approximately 27,500 square feet and is shown along Overland to increase the visibility. In the western half of the site, it is separated from 56 units of the multi-family residential by a shared drive aisle that is the access to the public street network for both proposed uses and connects to the west to the Silverstone Apartments site. In the eastern half of the site,the Applicant also shows the commercial building along Overland road for visibility with the remaining area of the lot as parking until the remaining 10 multi-family townhome units are proposed in a small sliver of remaining land in the very southeast of the project. Revising the development plan for this last remaining portion of the Movado Estates development is doable if done so with the right changes in mind. Staff believes that what the Applicant has presented does not fully touch on what a mixed-use development can provide, especially in terms of creating a sense of place and providing more pedestrian focus. Staff recommends some revisions to the site plan to improve the integration of uses and to better create a sense of place in this portion of the Movado development overall. into one building; widen the nor-themmest drive aisle and inelude street trees while removing all par-kin that baeks into the driving!a-me; and, iaeer-per-a4e a shared plaza between the eon*ner-eial and residential. First,the Appheant should lose the neffli-west eemmer-eial lot in lieu of providing a plaza for-the nitilti. family residential and ftttefe een*ner-eial to share. Instead ef two single stofy eenuner-eial btfildings,th-e Appkeafft should eenselida4e these buildings 44o one stfuetwe that is two stories in heigh4 in order-to beRer-utilize the 4ad area available.

Staff finds it appfopfiate that the Appliea+A deeide the most appr-epr-ia4e size of this two stei-j building btit believes it should be at least 10,000 s"ar-e feet total whieh r-equir-es a miniffmm In addition, to ensure adequate site circulation and pedestrian safety in perpetuity, staff is recommending a new DA provision that no drive-through use is permitted on this site. If one were to be proposed, Staff does not foresee the site adequately containing the stacking lane for a busy drive-through which could seriously harbor the function of the drive aisles and reduce pedestrian safety. Furthermore,the allowed uses for the commercial within this project should be office,retail,personal and professional services,restaurant, and daycare uses to aid in the integration and compatibility between the commercial and residential uses within the project. As noted,paft of eondensing the neAkwest eonuner-eial buildings into one,two story stmetufe is to remove the need for-twe building-pad sites and allow for-an ai-7ea tha4 ean be shared between the eem,mer-eial and the multi fi ri ill*,,,:,,,h,mes There are multiple ways to design this that can incorporate a shared plaza and create a better sense of place in this mixed-use area. Staff has some specific recommendations but final design will largely be up to the Applicant. At a minimum,the Applicant should incorporate a pedestrian crossing from the multi-family units to the new shared plaza within the commercial area. This can be located somewhat centrally on the site with parking on either side,east and west, of a more modern two-story commercial building along Overland that frames the plaza, creating a true sense of place between the two uses. The Applicant could also construct the two story building in the location of the central commercial building(southwest corner of Overland and Movado Way) as shown on the proposed site plan and have the shared plaza and parking to the west of the building. Staff can see these two options as more than feasible but,as already discussed,the format of how this area is redesigned should be up to the Applicant;the Applicant should aim to create a sense of place and provide for an area that is shared in order to meet the intent of the mixed-use policies. The final pieee of this r-evision r-ela4es to the design of the shared drive aisle.With the removal of paf-kifig spaees along the di4ve aisle,the di4ve aisle ean be widened to aeeemmodate detaehed sidewalks and stfeet tfees lining both sides of the drive aisle to er-eate a shet4 beti4evafd.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN(https://www.meridianci(y.or /�complan): This property is designated MU-R(Mixed Use—Regional)on the Future Land Use Map(FLUM). Land Use: The MU-R designation is to provide a mix of employment,retail, and residential dwellings and public uses near major arterial intersections. The intent is to integrate a variety of uses together, including residential, and to avoid predominantly single use developments such as a regional retail center with only restaurants and other commercial uses. Developments should be anchored by uses that have a regional draw with the appropriate supporting uses. For example,an employment center should have supporting retail uses; a retail center should have supporting residential uses as well as supportive neighborhood and community services. The standards for the MU-R designation provide an incentive for larger public and quasi-public uses where they provide a meaningful and appropriate mix to the development. Page 6 Page 301 Item#15. In general, the proposed uses of multi family dwellings and commercial are listed as allowed uses within the MU-R designated areas. More specific comprehensive plan policy analysis is below.As currently designed staff believes the project presents some issues for safe pedestrian connectivity and lacks a true integration of uses through the site. Staff believes the site layout can be modified to improve these issues with the uses proposed. Staffs recommended changes are outlined in the above section as well as throughout the staff report. Furthermore, the Applicant presented a thorough case for this area of the MU-R designation to lack true viability as a premier location for commercial uses due to its location being more than a half mile from the Eagle/Overland intersection, the central hub of this MU-R area. Some commercial should remain on these parcels but Staff agrees with the Applicant that the proposed amount with the incorporation of townhome style multi family is adequate to meet a majority of the mixed-use policies if better integration of uses is done as outlined above by staff above. Transportation: Access is proposed via driveways that connect to S. Movado Way,the existing collector street that bisects the project. The driveway within the northwest section of the project will connect to the driveway stub from the Silverstone Apartments directly to the west. This driveway acts as a border between the proposed commercial buildings and multi-family townhomes and shows parking backing into the driveway.As discussed, Staff finds this driveway can be better designed in order to provide for safer pedestrian connectivity through the site and provide more integration of the uses.For example,the recommended changes to incorporate a boulevard and added pedestrian crossings in this area of the site. South of this driveway are the drive aisles for the multi-family townhomes with the required parking located on both sides. The southeast portion of this area contains a segment of drive aisle that is over 150 feet in length which requires a fire turnaround. Instead, Staff recommends this segment be reduced in length to not require a turnaround; a few parking spaces in this area may need to be removed to accommodate this. The east side of the development proposes an additional commercial building as well as ten(10)more multi-family units with driveway accesses to Movado Way in alignment with the rest of the site. The submitted site plan shows more than the minimum parking required and drive aisles that meet UDC and Fire Department requirements for the commercial portion of the east site. The proposed dwellings at the very southeast corner of the project are placed with minimal room to spare surrounding the buildings but do appear to show compliance with dimensional standards. According to ACHD,the proposed driveway connections meet their district offset policies by being 220 feet from the intersection of Movado Way and Overland Road. However,these two northernmost proposed driveways will not meet offset requirements should the Overland and Movado intersection ever be signalized. In this case these accesses would be limited to right-in/right-out accesses only. The Applicant is aware of this potential and still proposed the driveways at their current locations. Therefore, Staff does not find it necessary to recommend different locations but will instead note compliance with ACHD conditions of approval and their policies. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES(https://www.meridiancity.or /g compplan): 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): • "Encourage a variety of housing types that meet the needs, preferences, and financial capabilities of Meridian's present and future residents."(2.01.02D) The proposed multi family dwellings are shown as townhome style units and would be a new type of multi family dwelling in this immediate area and add to the available housing diversity within the Page 7 Page 302 Item#15. Movado development.In addition, all of the units are proposed at 2-bedroom units which would offer future residents rental opportunities at a lower price than three bedroom homes. • "Permit new development only where it can be adequately served by critical public facilities and urban services at the time of final approval, and in accord with any adopted levels of service for public facilities and services."(3.03.03F) City water and sewer services are available and can be extended by the developer with development in accord with UDC 11-3A-21. • "Avoid the concentration of any one housing type or lot size in any geographical area;provide for diverse housing types throughout the City."(2.01.01 G) Traditional three-story, garden-style apartments are currently under construction directly to the west of the subject site which makes the proposed two-story townhome style apartments a new type of multi family housing in this area. The proposed residential is also a different type than the single- family proposed directly south and further into the Movado development. • `Encourage compatible uses and site design to minimize conflicts and maximize use of land." (3.07.00) Mixed-use areas require integration of uses that are not always precisely compatible but through thoughtful site design, conflicts can be minimized. With Staffs recommended changes, the proposed development offers better integration, mininikes. nfliet by u 4 ng Mat ae s into di-iv aisleL and better,.6Ue the land area. The drive aisle with the revisions recommended by Staff acts as both a buffer and a point of integration between the commercial and multi family residential on the property. The required setbacks between the subject property and the apartments to the west should offer an adequate transition and screening between more intensive residential buildings and the townhome style units proposed with this development. • "Ensure development is connected to City of Meridian water and sanitary sewer systems and the extension to and through said developments are constructed in conformance with the City of Meridian Water and Sewer System Master Plans in effect at the time of development."(3.03.03A) The proposed development will connect to City water and sewer systems by continuing existing stubs where available. • "Maximize public services by prioritizing infill development of vacant and underdeveloped parcels within the City over parcels on the fringe."(2.02.02) The subject site is already annexed but currently undeveloped; it is one of the last areas of the Movado development to be developed. Because everything to the south is mostly developed and the site abuts a major arterial and entryway corridor,public services are readily available for this site despite being on the outer edge of City limits. • "Require urban infrastructure be provided for all new developments, including curb and gutter, sidewalks,water and sewer utilities."(3.03.03G) Urban sewer and water infrastructure and curb, gutter and sidewalks is required to be provided with development as proposed. However, an existing driveway cut was not closed with curb, gutter, and sidewalk along Overland as required with previous approvals. The previous requirement to comply with this will be carried over into this project. • "Require collectors consistent with the ACHD Master Street Map(MSM),generally at/near the mid- mile location within the Area of City Impact." (6.01.0313) Page 8 Page 303 Item#15. The Applicant is utilizing an existing collector street as the access for the proposed development. No new public roads are required or proposed with this application. • "Slow the outward progression of the City's limits by discouraging fringe area development; encourage development of vacant or underutilized parcels currently within City limits." (4.05.03B) The proposed parcels are already annexed with commercial zoning but are not yet developed.As noted, these parcels are likely to not develop with the intended uses of only commercial when so far removed from the main MU-R center further to the west. Despite abutting the edge of City limits, City services are readily available. Furthermore, developing these parcels will allow for the entrance to the City of Meridian from the east along Overland Road to be enhanced with commercial and transitional residential. • "Monitor and adjust the amount and mix of industrial, commercial,and office areas needed to meet the employment needs of the City."(3.06.01B) The Applicant's proposal removes some commercial square footage from what is currently approved in the Movado Greens DA.According to the Applicant, the subject parcels are too far removed from the intersection of Eagle/Overland to directly compete with the already undeveloped Silverstone commercial area further to the west. Staff agrees that reducing the amount of commercial on this site to accommodate more neighborhood or community serving commercial uses rather than regional uses is prudent based on existing development patterns and size of the property. In reviewing development applications,the following items will be considered in all Mixed-Use areas,per the Comprehensive Plan(pg.3-13): (Staffs analysis in italics) • "A mixed-use project should include at least three types of land uses. Exceptions may be granted for smaller sites on a case-by-case basis. This land use is not intended for high density residential development alone." The proposed development includes both multi family residential and commercial pad sites. At a minimum, the development should provide two land uses immediately. With more than one commercial building, it is very feasible that at least three land uses will be provided. However, Staff does not find it necessary to require at least three land uses on the subject site due to its relatively small size (6.8 acres) in relation to the much larger parcels located further west and also in the MU- R designation. The proposed development meets this goal. • "Where appropriate,higher density and/or multi-family residential development is encouraged for projects with the potential to serve as employment destination centers and when the project is adjacent to US 20/26, SH-55, SH-16 or SH-69." The Applicant is proposing multi family residential at a gross density of 9.67 units/acre which falls within the medium-high density residential range were the project to be located in that designation. In addition, the subject parcels have easy access to a new collector street that connects to Overland Road, an arterial; Overland provides access east and west from the site to major employment centers in Meridian and Boise. • "Mixed Use areas are typically developed under a master or conceptual plan; during an annexation or rezone request, a development agreement will typically be required for developments with a Mixed- Use designation." An overall development plan is currently in place for the subject parcels and are currently approved as solely commercial sites. The Applicant is requesting to modify this plan to include multi family residential with the commercial uses proposed along Overland Road. • "In developments where multiple commercial and/or office buildings are proposed,the buildings should be arranged to create some form of common,usable area, such as a plaza or green space." Page 9 Page 304 Item#15. Staff is recommending revisions to the site plan that will help meet this comprehensive plan policy including eambining Af,e of the eanintereial buik4ings inte one in orek to provide for a shared plaza between the multi family and this commercial. With these changes, the project will meet this policy. • "The site plan should depict a transitional use and/or landscaped buffering between commercial and existing low-or medium-density residential development." The proposed plan depicts two-story, multi family residential as a transition from a busy arterial and commercial buildings to existing single-family homes directly to the south. The single-family development to the south would also have landscaping between their backyards and the proposed multi family residential. Many of these single-family homes abutting the subject site are attached products which makes the townhome style multi family an adequate transition to commercial uses. • "Community-serving facilities such as hospitals, clinics, churches, schools,parks,daycares,civic buildings, or public safety facilities are expected in larger mixed-use developments." The proposed project is not a larger mixed-use development; therefore, strict adherence to this policy is not feasible. • "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 are expected; outdoor seating areas at restaurants do not count." Staff is recommending revisions commensurate with this policy in order to provide for a shared plaza between uses that are not outdoor seating areas for restaurants. Future commercial uses are not yet known so the Applicant is not proposing this as an option at this point. • "Mixed use areas should be centered around spaces that are well-designed public and quasi-public centers of activity. Spaces should be activated and incorporate permanent design elements and amenities that foster a wide variety of interests ranging from leisure to play. These areas should be thoughtfully integrated into the development and further placemaking opportunities considered." As discussed earlier in the report, the subject parcels are small areas of undeveloped land within the MU-R designation and are separated from larger MU-R parcels further to the west by existing residential. These factors do not make it feasible for strict adherence to this policy. However, Staff has recommended revisions to the site plan in order to help meet other mixed-use policies that will, in-turn, move the project closer to compliance with this policy. • "All mixed-use projects should be directly accessible to neighborhoods within the section by both vehicles and pedestrians." The proposed development will be directly accessible to adjacent neighborhoods through extension of sidewalks from the existing network into the site. Staff believes better integration could occur if the concept plan is revised to reduce the commercial footprint and increase the shared area between the uses. • "Alleys and roadways should be used to transition from dissimilar land uses, and between residential densities and housing types." There are no alleys proposed in this development but the drive aisles within the proposed development act as a transition between the proposed residential and commercial areas as desired. Staff's recommended changes would further create this transition as described in more detail earlier in the report. • "Because of the parcel configuration within Old Town,development is not subject to the Mixed-Use standards listed herein." The subject property is not located in Old Town; therefore, this item is not applicable. Page 10 Page 305 Item#15. In reviewing development applications,the following items will be considered in MU-R areas,per the Comprehensive Plan: • "Developments should comply with the general guidelines for development in all Mixed-Use areas." See analysis above. • "Residential uses should comprise a minimum of 10%of the development area at gross densities ranging from 6 to 40 units/acre." The proposed development meets this policy by providing more than 10%as residential and with a gross density of nearly 10 units/acre. • "There is neither a minimum nor maximum imposed on non-retail commercial uses such as office, clean industry, or entertainment uses." Staff is recommending that the non-retail commercial uses on this site be limited in order to ensure compatible uses are proposed in the future. Because of the relatively small size of this mixed-use site, this policy is better adhered to further to the west in the Silverstone or Rackham commercial developments. • "Retail commercial uses should comprise a maximum of 50%of the development area." Future commercial uses are not yet known at this time. However, Staff's proposed use restrictions may provide for more than 50%of the commercial area to be retail. It is more likely that office uses or a daycare may end up within the proposed commercial are due to their proximity to multi family residential. Staff will analyze this policy with future Certificate of Zoning Compliance applications. Based on the analysis above, Staff finds the proposed plan is generally consistent with the vision of the Comprehensive Plan for this area in regard to land use, density and transportation. Several different land-uses should exist within the future commercial area of the site and Staffs recommended changes should increase the development's consistency with the comprehensive plan. B. UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE(UDC)ANALYSIS Conditional Use Permit(CUP)—Multi-family Development(UDC 11-4-3-27): The proposed multi-family development consists of 66 units with 56 on the western parcel and 10 units on the eastern parcel. The proposed use of multi-family residential is subject to conditional use permit approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission within the existing C-G zoning district and subject to specific use standards outlined in UDC 11-4-3-27 and below: 11-4-3-27—Multi-Family Development: A. Purpose: 1. To create multi-family housing that is safe and convenient and that enhances the quality of life of its residents. 2. To create quality buildings and designs for multi-family development that enhance the visual character of the community. 3. To create building and site design in multi-family development that is sensitive to and well integrated with the surrounding neighborhood. 4. To create open space areas that contribute to the aesthetics of the community,provide an attractive setting for buildings, and provide safe,interesting outdoor spaces for residents. B. Site Design: 1. Buildings shall provide a minimum setback of ten feet(10')unless a greater setback is otherwise required by this title and/or title 10 of this Code. Building setbacks shall take into account windows, Page 11 Page 306 Item#15. entrances,porches and patios, and how they impact adjacent properties.Proposed project shall comply with this requirement. 2. All on-site service areas,outdoor storage areas,waste storage, disposal facilities, and transformer and utility vaults shall be located in an area not visible from a public street, or shall be fully screened from view from a public street. The site plan depicts screened trash enclosures that are only visible from the drive aisles; all proposed transformer/utility vaults shall also comply with this requirement. 3. A minimum of eighty(80) square feet of private,usable open space shall be provided for each unit. This requirement can be satisfied through porches,patios,decks, and/or enclosed yards. Landscaping, entryway and other accessways shall not count toward this requirement. In circumstances where strict adherence to such standard would create inconsistency with the purpose statements of this section,the Director may consider an alternative design proposal through the alternative compliance provisions as set forth in section 11-5B-5 of this title.According to the submitted open space exhibit, the apartments are proposed with approximately 135 square feet of private open space in the form of private patios and decks for each unit, commensurate with traditional garden style apartment buildings. 4. For the purposes of this section,vehicular circulation areas,parking areas, and private usable open space shall not be considered common open space. These areas were not included in the common open space calculations for the site. 5.No recreational vehicles, snowmobiles,boats or other personal recreation vehicles shall be stored on the site unless provided for in a separate, designated and screened area.Applicant shall comply with this requirement. 6. The parking shall meet the requirements set forth in chapter 3, "Regulations Applying to All Districts", of this title.See analysis in staff report below. 7. Developments with twenty(20)units or more shall provide the following: a. A property management office. b. A maintenance storage area. c.A central mailbox location(including provisions for parcel mail)that provide safe pedestrian and/or vehicular access. d. A directory and map of the development at an entrance or convenient location for those entering the development. (Ord. 18-1773,4-24-2018) Per the submitted plans, the Applicant appears to meet these requirements except for the property management office; it is unclear where this office is located on-site. Where it is not clear on the submitted plans, the Applicant shall comply with these requirements at the time of CZC submittal. The site plan submitted with the Certificate of Zoning Compliance application shall depict these items. C. Common Open Space Design Requirements: 1. A minimum area of outdoor common open space shall be provided as follows: a. One hundred fifty(150) square feet for each unit containing five hundred(500)or less square feet of living area. b. Two hundred fifty(250) square feet for each unit containing more than five hundred(500) square feet and up to one thousand two hundred(1,200) square feet of living area. c. Three hundred fifty(350) square feet for each unit containing more than one thousand two hundred(1,200) square feet of living area. Page 12 Page 307 Item#15. Each unit contains less than 1,200 square feet of living area therefore, 250 square feet of common open space is required per unit in accord with the requirements above. 2. Common open space shall be not less than four hundred(400) square feet in area, and shall have a minimum length and width dimension of twenty feet(20'). Proposed open space submitted as meeting this requirement has been reviewed.All area labeled as qualified common open space on the open space exhibit complies with this requirement. The Applicant has proposed 19,561 square feet of qualified open space while needing to provide a minimum of 16,500 square feet of common open space,the proposed open space exceeds the minimum requirements.In addition to the areas shown on the open space exhibit, there is an area north of the ten units in the very southeast corner of the project that abuts Movado Way that is also qualifying. This area is approximately 2,000 square feet in area which increases the qualified open space further but the exhibit does not show this. Because these ten units are part of the CUP request, the open space exhibit should also include those units and show how they are meeting the private open space requirements as well as show any other qualifying common open space. The proposed open space consists of a buffer between the multi family residential and the existing residential to the south, a mew between two of the 8 plex buildings, a plaza area along Movado Way that contains the amenities, and other small areas that meet the minimum dimensional standards. Despite the proposed open space exceeding the minimum required by code, the only area large enough for a more active open space is the green space to the south of the plaza area that abuts Movado Way and is approximately 3,000 square feet in area. Because of this, the recommended revisions to the site design are even more important because there would be another area where residents could sit and safely enjoy their development despite not counting towards the open space. Furthermore, the developer of the subject parcels is the same as those for the rest of Movado Estates and Movado Greens directly south of the proposed development.It can be assumed these residents will have the opportunity to utilize the existing pedestrian network to access the larger open spaces within those developments. The Applicant should verify this at the Commission hearing. Overall, the proposed open space meets these specific use standards and Staff finds the proposed open space is adequate, especially with Staffs recommended changes. 3. In phased developments,common open space shall be provided in each phase of the development consistent with the requirements for the size and number of dwelling units. The multi family portion of the project is proposed to be developed in one(1)phase. 4. Unless otherwise approved through the conditional use process, common open space areas shall not be adjacent to collector or arterial streets unless separated from the street by a berm or constructed barrier at least four feet(4)in height,with breaks in the berm or barrier to allow for pedestrian access. (Ord. 09-1394, 3-3-2009, eff. retroactive to 2-4-2009). The required buffer along S. Movado Way, a collector street, is not shown as qualified open space on the submitted open space exhibit. However, a central open space area is proposed adjacent to Movado Way and is separated from the street by an existing buffer and fencing. D. Site Development Amenities: 1. All multi-family developments shall provide for quality of life, open space and recreation amenities to meet the particular needs of the residents as follows: a. Quality of life: (1)Clubhouse. (2)Fitness facilities. Page 13 Page 308 Item#15. (3)Enclosed bike storage. (4)Public art such as a statue. b. Open space: (1)Open grassy area of at least fifty by one hundred feet(50 x 100') in size. (2) Community garden. (3)Ponds or water features. (4)Plaza. c. Recreation: (1)Pool. (2)Walking trails. (3) Children's play structures. (4) Sports courts. 2. The number of amenities shall depend on the size of multi-family development as follows: a. For multi-family developments with less than twenty(20)units,two (2) amenities shall be provided from two(2) separate categories. b. For multi-family development between twenty(20)and seventy-five(75)units,three(3)amenities shall be provided,with one from each category. c. For multi-family development with seventy-five(75)units or more, four(4)amenities shall be provided,with at least one from each category. d. For multi-family developments with more than one hundred(100)units,the decision-making body shall require additional amenities commensurate to the size of the proposed development. 3. The decision-making body shall be authorized to consider other improvements in addition to those provided under this subsection D,provided that these improvements provide a similar level of amenity. (Ord. 05-1170, 8-30-2005, eff. 9-15-2005) Based on 66 proposed units a minimum of three(3) amenities are required. The Applicant has proposed 3 amenities, one from each category as required by code. The Applicant has proposed an enclosed bike storage area,a plaza, and a coffee kiosk.A coffee kiosk is not an option listed above in the Recreation category but subsection D.3 allows the decision-making body to authorize alternative options if they provide a similar level of amenity.If the Applicant can provide more detail in how the coffee kiosk will be operated as an amenity for this development,Staff finds it to be an adequate substitute.If the Commission finds this not to be true, an additional qualifying amenity should be added to meet these specific use standards. E. Landscaping Requirements: 1. Development shall meet the minimum landscaping requirements in accord with chapter 3, "Regulations Applying to All Districts", of this title. 2.All street facing elevations shall have landscaping along their foundation. The foundation landscaping shall meet the following minimum standards: a. The landscaped area shall be at least three feet(3')wide. b. For every three(3) linear feet of foundation,an evergreen shrub having a minimum mature height of twenty-four inches(24") shall be planted. Page 14 Page 309 Item#15. c. Ground cover plants shall be planted in the remainder of the landscaped area. The submitted landscape plan appears to meet these specific use standard landscape requirements and shall be further verified at the time of CZC submittal(see Exhibit VILD). Existing Structures/Site Improvements: There are no existing structures on site except for a vinyl privacy fence along Overland Road. S.Movado Way is a collector street that the Applicant was required to construct with previous approvals for Movado Estates and Movado Greens developments.All other site improvements would occur with these approvals. Dimensional Standards(UDC 11-2): The proposed development and future commercial buildings are required to comply with the dimensional standards listed in UDC Table 11-2B-3 for the C-G zoning district. Submitted plans appear to show compliance with all dimensional standards except for the 10 units in the very southeast corner of the site, across from E. Vacheron Street. These units are also proposed as 2-bedroom units with tucked under 2-car garages facing east, meeting the minimum parking requirement for each unit. Submitted site plans appear to meet all UDC and specific use requirements. Access(UDC 11-3A-31: Access was discussed heavily in the transportation section of the comprehensive plan analysis section earlier in the report. For the benefit of this report a quick summary of the proposed access is also in this section and also includes analysis on the accesses proposed for the ten units in the southeast corner of the site across from E.Vacheron. Access for all sections of the development are proposed via driveway connections to Movado Way,the existing collector street; no units have direct vehicular access to Movado Way but do have easy pedestrian access. Staff is recommending some changes to the northernmost drive aisle in the northwest section of the development to increase pedestrian safety and create a better sense of place within the development. As noted in the previous dimensional standards section,the drive aisle access for the ten units in the SEC of the site does not show the required 5 feet of landscaping along the eastern property boundary. The driveway access for these units to Movado Way aligns with Vacheron Street and should be stubbed to the eastern property line in order to provide for cross-access to the adjacent parcel to the east that is in the City of Boise. This parcel has recently received approval from the City of Boise for a commercial and self-service storage development; cross-access to this development is already part of the existing DA in order to minimize direct access to Overland. Road Improvements: The Applicant is required to close any existing curb-cuts along Overland and/or Movado Way that are not proposed to be used. This includes the large curb cut along Overland that was required to be closed with previous approvals. In order to ensure this curb-cut is finally closed, Staff is recommending a condition of approval that no certificate of occupancy for the multi-family be issued until all curb-cuts are closed in line with ACHD requirements. Sidewalks (UDC 11-3A-17): All sidewalks adjacent to all public streets are already constructed as set forth in UDC 11-3A-17 except for the section noted above that requires the Applicant to close an old curb-cut. All other proposed sidewalks are adjacent to the multi-family residential buildings and shown adjacent to the future commercial structures. The pedestrian circulation that is a part of this project will be different should the Commission agree with Staff s recommended changes for the northernmost drive aisle in the northwest section of the site. Page 15 Page 310 Item#15. With Staffs recommended changes, the northernmost drive aisle would have detached sidewalks on both the north and south side of the drive aisle with ample room for additional trees. This change would create a short segment of boulevard between the residential and commercial components of the site but is both a better transition and area of integration than currently proposed, especially when the addition of a shard plaza is incorporated north of this drive aisle. In addition to the recommended detached sidewalks in this area, Staff is recommending at least one pedestrian crossing between the multi family townhomes and the commercial/plaza area that is clearly delineated from the driving surface by being constructed as either brickpavers, stamped concrete, or similar. These crossings should be clearly shown on the revised plans. Landscaping(UDC 11-3B): Street buffer landscaping is required to be provided as set forth in UDC Tables 11-213-3 for the C-G zoning district, and planted in accord with the standards listed in UDC 11-313-7C. The Overland and Movado Way street buffers are existing and are shown to remain intact during development. As discussed in the specific use standards section earlier in the report,the submitted landscape plans appear to show compliance with all other landscaping requirements for multi-family developments including vegetative ground cover and the correct number of trees. A 25-foot landscape buffer on the south side of the C-G zoning is required adjacent to the R-15 zoning district to the south. This buffer appears to be shown on the submitted plans and includes additional landscaping to help minimize any conflicts of the different residential types. Fencing(UDC 11-3A-6, I1-3A-7): All fencing constructed on the site is required to comply with the standards listed in UDC 11-3A-7. A 6-foot tall solid vinyl fence is proposed to remain along all property boundaries. It appears the existing fencing along Overland is to be removed but the buffer landscaping material will remain. All proposed fencing meets UDC requirements. Storm Drainage(UDC 11-3A-18 : An adequate storm drainage system is required in all developments in accord with the City's adopted standards, specifications and ordinances. Design and construction shall follow best management practice as adopted by the City as set forth in UDC 11-3A-18. Storm drainage is proposed to be mitigated by underground seepage beds and/or retention ponds in accord with ACHD design criteria. Building Elevations(UDC 11-3A-19 I Architectural Standards Manual): Conceptual building elevations were submitted for the 56 units on the western parcel; no elevations have been submitted for the future commercial structures or the ten units in the southeast corner of the development. The Applicant should provide conceptual elevations prior to the Commission meeting. All non-residential and multi-family structures require Administrative Design Review prior to obtaining building permits. At the time of those submittals, Staff will analyze conformance with the Architectural Standards Manual.An application for Certificate of Zoning Compliance is also required to be submitted along with Design Review for this entire development and each commercial structure. The elevations submitted for the 56 units on the western parcel show two-story structures with varying roof profiles along the rooflines and mostly lap-siding exteriors. No color elevations were submitted so materials and color palettes cannot be analyzed. However, Staff will analyze all elevations for compliance with the Architectural Standards Manual at the time of Design Review submittal. Furthermore, Staff is recommending a condition of approval that the same design elements are incorporated in the commercial and multi family development to ensure integration and congruency in design. Page 16 Page 311 Item#15. VI. DECISION A. Staff: Staff recommends approval of the proposed modification to the existing Development Agreement and approval of the requested Conditional Use Permit per the DA provisions and conditions of approval included in Section VIII in accord with the Findings in Section IX. B. The Meridian Planning&Zoning Commission heard these items on March 4, 2021.

Conditional Use Permit Findings (UDC 11-5B-6L): The commission shall base its determination on the conditional use permit request upon the following: Page 31 Page 326 Item#15. 1. That the site is large enough to accommodate the proposed use and meet all the dimensional and development regulations in the district in which the use is located. If all conditions of approval are met, Council finds the submitted site plan shows compliance with all dimensional and development regulations in the C-G zoning district in which it resides. 2. That the proposed use will be harmonious with the Meridian comprehensive plan and in accord with the requirements of this title. Council finds the proposed use of multi family residential, with Staffs recommended revisions, is harmonious with the comprehensive plan designation of Mixed-Use Regional and the requirements of this title when included in the overall project analysis. 3. That the design,construction,operation and maintenance will be compatible with other uses in the general neighborhood and with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will not adversely change the essential character of the same area. Despite the proposed use being different than the residential uses directly to the south, Council finds the design, construction, and proposed operation and maintenance will be compatible with other uses in the general neighborhood and should not adversely change the essential character of the same area, so long as the Applicant complies with Staffs recommended revisions and maintains all required landscape buffers. 4. That the proposed use,if it complies with all conditions of the approval imposed,will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity. Council finds the proposed use, if it complies with all conditions of approval imposed, will not adversely affect other property in the vicinity. 5. That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services such as highways, streets, schools,parks,police and fire protection,drainage structures, refuse disposal,water,and sewer. Council finds the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services because all services are readily available. 6. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional costs for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. All public facilities and services are readily available for the subject site so Council finds the proposed use will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community or create excessive additional costs for public facilities and services. 7. That the proposed use will not involve activities or processes,materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons,property or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic,noise, smoke,fumes, glare or odors. Although traffic is sure to increase in the vicinity with the addition of more residential units, all major roadways adjacent to the site are already at their full width and the development has multiple Page 32 Page 327 Item#15. avenues of accessing the arterial network to the north or to the south. Therefore, Council finds the proposed use will not be detrimental to any persons,property, or the general welfare. 8. That the proposed use will not result in the destruction,loss or damage of a natural,scenic or historic feature considered to be of major importance. (Ord.05-1170,8-30-2005, eff.9-15- 2005) Council is unaware of any natural, scenic, or historic features within the development area, therefore, Council finds the proposed use should not result in damage of any such features.

Chateau Avenue Meridian, Idaho 83646 208-888-2427 joycegreenart@cableone.net joyceg reenwatercolors.com Originally from Minnesota, Joyce Green has been a professional artist for over thirty five years. She has earned signature membership in the American Watercolor Society (New York), and also holds signature status inThe National Watercolor Society, The Transparent Watercolor Society ofAmerica, and Watercolor West. She has had works selected for exhibition the Rocky Mountain National (Denver), the Northwest Watercolor Society (Seattle), The Western Federation of Watercolor Societies, The San Diego Watercolor Society, and many regional venues. Her work has won numerous awards, including four"Best of Show"honors, and the Bill Peregrin award at the 2011 Watercolor West Exhibition, and a Dick Blick Award at the 2020 Rocky Mountain National Watermedia exhibit. She is a distinguished merit member and past president of the Idaho Watercolor Society. Joyce holds degrees in art from the University of Minnesota, Duluth(B.S. magna cum laude), and the University of Arizona (M.Ed). She has held professional positions in art education in Ohio and Arizona, and teaches watercolor workshops and classes in Idaho. She has also served as curator of education at the Columbus (Ohio) Museum of Art. She has resided in Idaho for over 35 years. Travel, both foreign and domestic, has been, and continues to be, one of the most stimulating influences on Joyce's artistic life. Many of her paintings have been inspired by the experiences encountered in more than 50 years of travels, literally around the world, with her late husband Robert. They have traveled to more than 80 countries since the 1960's. For over two decades, Joyce has focused upon the use of the traditional watercolor medium. She is fascinated by the expressive effects possible through layering glazes to build color and textural nuance, allowing exploration of design possibilities in light patterns regardless of the subject she chooses. Masking is used only for specific effects, such as to capture the play of light on the surface of the water. The use of masking facilitates the feeling of surface, allowing the glazed layers to develop the depth of transparencies desired. "I strive to paint memorable and personally creatively authentic visions, carefully designed and technically proficient in my chosen medium. I prefer to express positive aspects of life." Page 344 Item#17. Descriptions of Artwork Submitted by Joyce Green 1. Jerseys in Idaho: watercolor These cows are truly citizens of Meridian. I found them off Victory Road, and they immediately chose to greet me when I pulled off the road to photograph them. The barn is also a genuine Meridian barn, which was between Linder and Meridian Road on McMillan for many years, now unfortunately razed to make way for yet another subdivision. It was a beautiful barn, and I would love to see this part of Meridian's past displayed for all to see on a traffic box.! 2. Flume Fortissimo: watercolor Part of my Water Music series, Flume Fortissimo references both a water name and a music name. It is one of the more abstract compositions in that series, and took inspiration from a falls on the Little Salmon north of New Meadows. I hope you can almost hear the roar! 3. Basque Dancers (Weave): watercolor Actually"Weaving the Dance", this group of Basque heritage children were dancing their way through a parade. I have loved the Basque cultural presence in our community, and the sheer joy of the dance. Every dancer smiles! So much fun! I am known in this area for my Basque Dancer paintings. Page 345 Item#17.

Marne Elmore Meridian Arts Commission Traffic Box Art Image Repository 2021 Artist Statement As a printmaker, I value the qualities of repetition and variation inherent in all art that comes from the hand. I incorporate several artistic mediums including drawing and painting in my studio practice while engaging in the printmaking mediums of intaglio, relief printmaking, and lithography. I am a methodical, process-oriented artist.The fodder for my inspiration is varied, but includes the landscape, the environment, space, and politics. Biography Marne Elmore grew up in the small, quiet, and scenic Wood River Valley in Bellevue, Idaho. She attended Oregon State University where she received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Visual Art with a minor in Art History. Elmore received a Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of New Mexico with a studio art emphasis in Printmaking. Currently, Elmore is living and working in Boise, Idaho, where she has been for nigh seven years. Page 353 Item#17. Marne Elmore Meridian Arts Commission Traffic Box Art Image Repository 2021 Artwork Descriptions i. Billy, linocut and woodblock print, 11.5" x 9" This piece is a much smaller version of a larger woodcut I created that explores the intrinsically adept nature of mountain goats and their fearless intimidation alongside their simultaneous quirkiness. They are masters of slight rock face, and their skills are confounding. 2. Untitled(Buffalo), woodcut and woodblock print, 8" x lo" This piece is a reflection on the strange juxtaposition of what could be deemed `wild' and the state of the natural world in places where extreme human interaction has led to a convolution of such `wild' spaces. It is also a wonderment of persistence of species in tough circumstances throughout history. 3. Gila Rattler, two-color lithograph and woodcut print, 22"x 15" It is wildly terrifying to come close to a rattlesnake unexpectedly. This print is based on one such experience and the raw appreciation of such a volatile, dangerous, and yet, gorgeous creature. Page 354 I I r GGG 9 i J 41 " Item#17.

He works both traditionally and digitally. His work touches on the subject of growing up as a first generation Mexican American. Miguel's art style is a combination of colors inspired by Mexican folk art and heavy line work to create a graphic style. He uses bright colors he grew up seeing in the architecture of Mexican cities, ceramics, clothing, and even the pastries when visiting his grandparents in Zacatecas, Mexico. He has always been fascinated with Alebrijes. Miguel grew up seeing them being sold in Mexican street markets and in the media. He often replaces the characters with alebrije like figures in my paintings. Page 362 Item#17. 01. Somos Idaho Digital Illustration 8" x 10" "Somos Idaho" is a piece of artwork to represent Mexican Immigrant farm workers who are often in the shadows of Idaho but provide something essential to all of our survival. They play a big role in keeping our communities fed and food on our tables. 02. Dia De Los Muertos Digital Illustration 8" x 10" This illustration was made during 2020's Dia De los Muertos. I often like to create Dia De Los Muertos art around the holiday and reminisce on loved ones that have passed in my life. 03. Tu Lucha Es Mi Lucha Digital Illustration 8" x 10" "Tu Lucha Es Mi Lucha" was inspired by the phrase, which is a solidarity phrase. It is often used to stand in solidarity with another person in hardships. I come from a family deeply rooted in community and I have often resonated with that phrase in my life. Page 363 Item#17.

I studied music education in college, and then became a stay at home mom when my son was born. I soon started a business making stuffed toys. I branched out to art dolls, and took some community education art classes to hone my skills. I selected a watercolor painting class, and found a new passion. I started a second business selling my art originals, prints and cards, which has been growing every year since. I've been a member of the Treasure Valley Artist's Alliance for a decade and a member of the Idaho Watercolor Society for two years, through which I've shown my work numerous times. I have run my small business, with it's doll making and it's watercolor art branches, for 12 years without ever having a late order. I am a reliable and conscientious worker and will be able to fill the needs of this committee for this project. Through my watercolor paintings, I express the joy I find in color and the natural world. I explore a small scene in time and sit with it, ferreting out the little pockets of beauty and color to emphasize in each piece, and create a bold and colorful end product. I would love to offer that to passersby of a busy intersection, and perhaps inspire a bit of kindness and joy in each passing motorist and pedestrian. The pieces that I submit today include: • Road Trip in the Mountains, watercolor on paper. This piece expresses the gorgeous views of the beautiful state of Idaho, incorporating mountains and pine trees, beautiful billowing clouds, and the curve of the highway. The journey is the destination. • Three Pears in a Blue Bowl, watercolor on paper. Captured at the moment of perfect ripeness, these three yellow pears contrasted beautifully with the cobalt blue of the bowl. You can almost taste the pears! • At the Keys, watercolor on paper. After a long day I love to sit at the piano and play my favorite songs. It calms me like nothing else, and makes me appreciate the joy that music (whether creating or listening) can bring to us all. I'm eager to apply my skills to the city's public art collection. Thank you for this opportunity to add to the ever increasing beauty of Meridian! Sincerely, Rachel Linquist, artist Page 371 Item#17.

WHEREAS, on February 2, 2010, Portal Manager and City entered into a Master Agreement for Professional Services ("Master Agreement"), which, inter alia, established the terms, conditions, and scope of services to be provided by Portal Manager; NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants of the parties, the Parties agree as follows: 1. Access by Portal Manager. City authorizes Portal Manager to electronically access information contained in the City computer database maintained by the City or its agents to create an electronic transaction service, in accordance with this Agreement. Description of Service is as follows: Access by the Portal Manager will be on an inquiry-only, as needed basis for the purposes of processing funds through the Portal's Transaction Payment Engine (TPE) integrated with the City's Ticketing service. The City authorizes Portal Manager to be the exclusive agent for electronic transactions by private Users. Any changes or amendments to the terms of this Exhibit must be documented and agreed to in writing by the parties to this Exhibit. 2. Record Supply Costs and Computer Programs.

If required by the City, the Portal Manager shall cause the Portal to require Users to signify online that they will comply with any restriction on use of the records required by law, as amended from time to time. Such user agreement will be in the form of a use message displayed online, with a required positive response, all as captured in a log file, prior to the User being permitted to further search or view the record. 4.

The Portal Manager additionally will assess and collect a Portal Administration Fee of 3% of the transaction subtotal plus $1.00 for the services provided. The Portal Manager shall be entirely responsible for the assessment and collection of payments from Users. The City will not receive a bill from the Portal Manager for this service or any fees.

MEMO TO CITY COUNCIL Request to Include Topic on the City Council Agenda From: Cameron Arial, Community Development Meeting Date: July 6, 2021 Presenter: Cameron Arial Estimated Time: 15 minutes Topic: Resolution No. 21-2273: A Resolution of the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Meridian, Idaho,Accepting that Certain Report on Eligibility for the Northern Gateway Area as an Urban Renewal Area and Revenue Allocation Area and Justification for Designating the Area as Appropriate for an Urban Renewal Project; Determining the Area Identified in the Report to be a Deteriorated Area or a Deteriorating Area, or a Combination Thereof, as Defined by Idaho Code Sections 50- 2018(9) and 50-2903(8); Directing the Urban Renewal Agency of the City of Meridian, Idaho, also Known as the Meridian Development Corporation,to Commence the Preparation of an Urban Renewal Plan for the Area Subject to Certain Conditions,which Plan May Include Revenue Allocation Provisions For All or Part of the Area; and Providing an Effective Date Background While downtown Meridian is beginning to experience renewed interest, the challenges in revitalizing aging downtown properties are still apparent. New private investment in the original downtown Meridian Revitalization District ("original District") has been hampered by the 2008- 2009 recession and, more recently, by uncertainties surrounding COVID-related changes in the commercial real estate market and rising development costs. Meridian Development Corporation ("MDC") has been engaged in urban renewal efforts in the original District since its adoption in late 2002. The original District will sunset in 2026.With limited time to utilize the urban renewal tools available to assist in funding public infrastructure improvements, many properties are likely to remain underutilized without intervention. It is difficult for property owners to justify redevelopment of the small, infill sites that make up the majority of the original District and fund the required public infrastructure improvements that condition development. Historically,the majority of infrastructure improvements and facade improvement projects in the original District have been in the downtown core. With increasing interest in downtown extending north to Fairview Avenue/Cherry Lane, MDC retained Kushlan I Associates to prepare an Eligibility Report to assess the viability of the Northern Gateway Study Area as an urban renewal project and evaluate its concurrence with Idaho Code requirements. The Eligibility Report (Exhibit A of the proposed resolution) cites the conditions necessary as well as the financial findings required. Page 447 Item#23.

The assemblage of parcels can spread soft development costs over a larger area and when coupled with MDC's ability to fund public infrastructure improvements required of new development, can spur development interest. MDC accepted the Northern Gateway Study Area Eligibility Report and, through MDC Resolution 21-026 adopted on June 9, 2021 (Exhibit B of the proposed resolution), authorized its transmittal to the City Council for consideration and, if accepted as appropriate for an urban renewal project, subsequent direction for MDC to proceed with preparation of an urban renewal plan. 2 Page 448 Item#23. The Northern Gateway Study Area encompasses 150 parcels within 126.226 acres.Approximately 77 acres, 133 parcels, are currently within the boundaries of the original District, and the subject of a deannexation action. A study area is required to meet at least one of ten conditions specified in Idaho Code Sections 50- 2018(9) and 50-2903(8) to qualify for urban renewal activities. The Eligibility Report finds that the Study Area meets eight of the ten criteria (Eligibility Report, page 15). Approval of this resolution provides for: • Acceptance of the Northern Gateway Study Area Eligibility Report, • Determination that the Study Area meets the findings and characteristics stipulated in Idaho Code to establish an urban renewal plan, and • Directs MDC to prepare a Northern Gateway District Urban Renewal Plan. Future Actions The public hearing and second reading of the ordinance to adopt the Second Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Urban Renewal District providing for the deannexation of that portion of the Northern Gateway properties from the original District included in the Study Area also appear on this evening's agenda for Council consideration. Following Council acceptance of the Eligibility Report and direction for MDC to begin preparation of an urban renewal plan, staff and consultants will prepare the Northern Gateway Urban Renewal Plan. City and MDC staff will inform and engage property owners. In addition, the Planning and Zoning Commission must review the proposed plan to validate its conformity with the City Comprehensive Plan. The Northern Gateway Urban Renewal Plan will then be brought to the City Council for consideration and adoption following three ordinance readings and a public hearing. It is anticipated that these final actions will occur mid-November through early December 2021. 3 Page 449 Item#23.

Introduction: Kushlan I Associates was retained by the Urban Renewal Agency of the City of Meridian, Idaho, also known as the Meridian Development Corporation (the "MDC")to assist in their consideration of establishing a new urban renewal district,[in the City of Meridian, Idaho, and its area of operation. Elected Officials serving the City of Meridian are: Mayor: Robert Simison Council President: Treg Bernt Council Vice President: Brad Hoaglun Council Members: Joe Borton Luke Cavener Liz Strader Jessica Perreault City Staff Community Development Director: Cameron Arial Idaho Code§50-2006 states: "URBAN RENEWAL AGENCY. (a)There is hereby created in each municipality an independent public body corporate and politic to be known as the "urban renewal agency" that was created by resolution as provided in section 50-2005, Idaho Code, before July 1, 2011, for the municipality..." to carry out the powers enumerated in the statutes. The Meridian City Council adopted Resolution 01-397 on July 24, 2001 bringing forth those powers within the City of Meridian. The Mayor,with the confirmation of the City Council,has appointed nine members to the MDC Board of Commissioners(the"MDC Board").The MDC Board currently oversees the implementation of three urban renewal districts. Two are focused on the revitalization of downtown Meridian. The first, the Meridian Revitalization Plan Urban Renewal Project (the "Downtown District") was established by the City Council's adoption of Ordinance No. 02-987 on December 3, 2002. The second district, the Urban Renewal Plan for the Union District Urban Renewal Project (the "Union District") was established with the adoption of Ordinance No. 20-1882 on June 9, 2020. Both the Downtown District and the Union District are focused on redevelopment activities in and around the City's downtown core. The third district,the Urban Renewal Plan for the Ten Mile Road-A Urban Renewal Project (the "Ten Mile District") was established by Ordinance No. 16-1695 adopted on June 21, 2016, and is focused on economic development outside of the City's core to support implementation of the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan. The current membership of the Commission is as follows: Chair: David Winder Vice Chairman Nathan Mueller Secretary/Treasurer Steve Vlassek Commissioners Dan Basalone Rob McCarvel Treg Bernt Tammy deWeerd Diane Bevan Kit Fitzgerald ' Throughout this Study,urban renewal/revenue allocation area will be referred to as an"urban renewal district." 2 1 P a g e Page 456 Item#23.

Dutch Farm oy jrhorn Overland o sw 1403 O —i Feat Background: While Native Americans inhabited the area for centuries, the development of the community of Meridian,as we know it today,evolved through the late nineteenth century. European settlement started in the 188os and was originally located on a farm owned by the Onweiler family. A school was opened in 1885. The U.S. Postal Service established a mail drop along the Oregon Short Line Railroad and the site was named Hunter after its superintendent. Community activity grew around this mail stop focused on the railroad. In 1893 an Odd Fellows lodge was organized and called itself Meridian, acknowledging that it was located on the Boise Meridian the primary North-South survey benchmark for Idaho. That name grew in primary use as the name of the settlement and the Village of Meridian was incorporated in 1903 with a population of approximately 200. The economy had traditionally been focused on the support of the surrounding agricultural activities. A major creamery was established in the community in 1897 to support the nearby dairies. Fruit orchards were located throughout the area. Meridian was a significant stop on the Interurban electric railway from 19o8 to 1928. This service provided convenient access for passengers and freight in both easterly and westerly directions. Throughout most of the loth century, Meridian remained a relatively quiet community focused on its agricultural roots.US Census Bureau data,reflects a 1910 population of 619 people growing to 2,616 by 1970. However, starting in 197o the pace of growth in Southwest Idaho quickened and Meridian's growth initially reflected, and then exceeded 5 1 P a g e Page 459 Item#23. the regional rates by significant margins. Over the past twenty-five years the rate of growth has been startling by any reasonable standard. The following table reflects that population growth over the city's history. 1903 (Incorporation Estimate) 200 1910 619 1920 1,013 1930 1,004 1940 1,465 1950 1,500 196o 2,100 1970 2,600 198o 6,658 1990 9,596 2000 34,919 2010 75,092 2020 114,200 2021(Estimate) 129,555 When income statistics are compared to statewide numbers, the population of Meridian compares favorably with the rest of Idaho in these categories. The median household income in Meridian is $71,389, approximately 28%above the statewide figure Of$55,785• Per capita money income for the Meridian population is $33,328 as compared to the statewide number of$27,970. The percentage of the Meridian population below poverty level is 8.6% as compared to the statewide number Of 11.2%. Investment Capacity: Cities across the nation actively participate in the economic vitality of their communities through investment in infrastructure. Water and sewer facilities as well as transportation, communication, electrical distribution and other systems are all integral elements of an economically viable community. Idaho cities have a significant challenge in responding to these demands along with the on-going need to reinvest in their general physical plant to ensure it does not deteriorate to the point of system failure. They face stringent statutory and constitutional limitations on revenue generation and debt as well as near total dependence upon state legislative action to provide funding options.These strictures severely constrain capital investment strategies. The tools made available to cities in Title 50,Chapters 20 and 29,the Urban Renewal Law and the Local Economic Development Act are some of the few that are available to assist communities in their efforts to support economic vitality. New sources of State support are unlikely to become available in the foreseeable future, thus the City of Meridian's interest in exploring the potential for establishing another urban renewal district is an appropriate public policy consideration. The City of Meridian initially established its Urban Renewal Agency in 2oo1. As noted above, the Downtown District's exclusive focus, limited by the boundaries of the district, is on the traditional downtown area of Meridian. The Ten Mile District was created in 2016 and was designed to support the implementation of the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan. A third urban renewal district was created in 2020 from an area de- 61Page Page 460 Item#23. annexed from the original Downtown District to support a significant mixed use-project. The Northern Gateway Urban Renewal District would, if approved by the MDC Board of Commissioners and Meridian City Council, would remove 133 parcels from the existing Downtown District2 and combine those with other properties and rights-of-way north of Fairview Avenue and southeast of Fairview Avenue to establish a new district. One large property(Kobe property~ 17.64 acres) currently under consideration for inclusion in the district remains outside the city limits and in unincorporated Ada County. To include this parcel in a district under the jurisdiction of MDC, an agreement would be required between the City and Ada County to permit this inclusion. Should annexation of this parcel be effectuated prior to the establishment of the district by the City Council, no agreement would be required. Comprehensive Plan: The City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan, updated in 2019 calls for a mixture of Office, High Density Residential, Commercial and Mixed-Use development in the Study Area under current review. The Study Area is in transition from a predominately single-family residential area dating back to the early years of the community. While many of the residences remain in their original use, many others have been converted to office uses creating a patchwork of uses with more intense commercial activity along the arterial streets. 2 The Second Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan seeking to deannex certain parcels from the existing Downtown District,including those parcels that are contemplated to be considered for inclusion in the proposed Northern Gateway District,has been approved by the MDC Board and submitted to the City for its consideration. 7 1 P a g e Page 461 Item#23. i I I cm 4 ,[ Steps in Consideration of an Urban Renewal District: The first step in consideration of establishing an urban renewal district in Idaho is to define a potential area for analysis as to whether conditions exist within it to qualify for redevelopment activities under the statute.We have called this the"Study Area." The next step in the process is to review the conditions within the Study Area to determine whether the area is eligible for creating a district.The State Law governing urban renewal sets out the following criteria, at least one of which must be found, for an area to be considered eligible for urban renewal activities: 1. The Presence of a Substantial Number of Deteriorated or Deteriorating Structures and Deterioration of Site or Other Improvements 150-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] 2. Age or Obsolescence 150-2018(8) and 50-2903(8)(a)] 3. Predominance of Defective or Inadequate Street Layout L50-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b)] 8 1 P a g e Page 462 Item#23. 4. Faulty Lot Layout in Relation to Size, Adequacy, Accessibility, or Usefulness; Obsolete Platting 150-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50- 2903(8)(c)] 5. Insanitary or Unsafe Conditions L50-2oi8(9) and 50-2903(8)(b)] 6. Diversity of Ownership 150-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] 7. Tax or Special Assessment Delinquency 150-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b)] 8. Defective or Unusual Conditions of Title L50-2oi8(9) and 50-2903(8)(b)] 9. Results in Economic Underdevelopment of the Area 150-2903(8)(b); 50- 2903(8)(c)] 10. Substantially Impairs or Arrests the Sound Growth of a Municipality 150- 2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] If the Eligibility Report finds that one or more of the conditions noted above exists within the Study Area,then the Agency may accept the findings and forward the Eligibility Report to the City Council for their consideration. If the City Council concurs with the determination of the Agency, they may direct that an Urban Renewal Plan be developed for the area that addresses the issues raised in the Eligibility Report. The Agency then acts to prepare the Urban Renewal Plan for the new District and establishing a Revenue Allocation Area to fund improvements called for in the Plan. Once the Plan for the District and Revenue Allocation Area are completed, the Agency Board forwards it to the City Council for their consideration. The City Council must refer the Urban Renewal Plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission to determine whether the Plan, as presented, is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and make a corresponding finding. At the same time, other taxing entities levying property taxes within the boundaries of the proposed Urban Renewal District are provided a thirty-day opportunity to comment on the Plan to the City Council. While the taxing entities are invited to comment on the Plan, their concurrence is not required for the City Council to proceed with formal consideration. Based on legislative changes to Idaho Code § 50-2908(2)(a), effective July 1, 2020, the Ada County Highway District (ACHD) is allocated all of the taxes levied by ACHD within a revenue allocation area first formed or expanded to include property on or after July 1, 2020(including taxes levied on the base and increment values),which would apply to this proposed district,if formed. However,ACHD and MDC may enter into an agreement for a different allocation, which agreement shall be submitted to the State Tax Commission and to the Ada County Clerk by ACHD as soon as practicable after the parties have entered in the agreement and by no later than September i of the year in which the agreement takes effect. In the case of the Northern Gateway Study Area,the affected taxing districts for those properties located within the city limits of Meridian are: • The City of Meridian • The West Ada School District (School District No. 2) • Ada County 9 1 P a g e Page 463 Item#23. • Emergency Medical District/Ada County Ambulance • Mosquito Abatement District • The Ada County Highway District • Meridian Library District • Meridian Cemetery District • Western Ada Recreation District • College of Western Idaho For the parcel located in unincorporated Ada County,the affected taxing districts are: • The West Ada School District(Joint School District No. 2) • Ada County • Emergency Medical District/Ada County Ambulance • Mosquito Abatement District • The Ada County Highway District • Meridian Library District • Meridian Cemetery District • Western Ada Recreation District • College of Western Idaho • Meridian Fire District • Pest Extermination District Once the Planning and Zoning Commission makes their finding of conformity and the thirty-day comment period has passed, the City Council is permitted to hold a public hearing and formally consider the adoption of the Plan creating the new Urban Renewal District and Revenue Allocation Area. The City Council must also find that the taxable value of the district to be created plus the Base Assessed Value of any existing Urban Renewal / Revenue Allocation Area does not exceed the statutory maximum of io%of the citywide assessed valuation. If the City Council, in their discretion chooses to proceed, they will officially adopt the Urban Renewal Plan and Revenue Allocation Area and provide official notification of that action to the affected taxing districts, County Assessor and Idaho State Tax Commission. The Agency then proceeds to implement the Plan. Description of the Northern Gateway Study Area: The Study Area subject to the current review is generally located in the central part of Meridian, northeast of the City's downtown core, and is generally bounded by Meridian Road on the west to the intersection of Meridian Road and W.Cherry Lane travelling west and E. Fairview Avenue travelling east. The Study Area then includes a large 17.64-acre parcel(Kobe Property)bounded by W.Cherry Lane to the south and Meridian Road to the east. The Study Area also includes the commercial area east of Meridian Road and north of Fairview Avenue. The eastern boundary extends south along NE 5t'Avenue and then over to what would be NE 4th Street if extended, and then over to NE 3rd Street. The southern boundary extends to E. Pine Avenue between NE 3rd Street and NE end Street, and then travels up NE end Street and over E. Washington Avenue to connect back to Meridian Road. 101Page Page 464 Item#23. The size and value information presented in Attachment i was derived from the Ada County Assessor's on-line parcel information system3. The 2O20 taxable value of the portion of the Study Area located in unincorporated Ada County,represents exceptionally low assessed value as compared to the more developed area surrounding it located within the corporate limits of the City of Meridian. Land values in the more developed, commercially zoned areas range from approximately$5.00 to$15.00 per square foot. The unincorporated agricultural land reflects a current assessed value of$.04 per square foot consistent with assessed values assigned to agricultural properties in the broader area. As a comparison,the vacant parcel across Meridian Road within the city limits and zones for commercial purposes has an assessed value of$8.50 per square foot. Northern Gateway Urban Renewal Area � LegeM o�hem® a r I „ 1 The Study Area The Northern Gateway Study Area consists of one hundred fifty(15O)tax parcels located in central Meridian,northeast of the City's downtown core,and generally east of Meridian Road and south of Fairview Avenue.A portion of the Study Area fronts the north side of Fairview Avenue east of Meridian Road and there is a 17.64 acre parcel (Kobe Property) s For purposes of this Study,the 2020 taxable values were reviewed as at the time of this review the 2021 value information was not available. Use of the 2020 values provides a more conservative analysis as it is generally understood significant value increases will occur in 2021.Further,based on the adoption of H389,effective retroactive to January 1,2021,the Homeowner Property Tax Exemption will increase to a maximum of$125,000. This is anticipated to further reduce the base. Again,as the 2021 tax assessments were not yet available at the time this Study was prepared,the 2020 data has been used. The 10%analysis set forth below will ultimately be revisited in any further urban renewal plan. 111Page Page 465 Item#23. located at the northwest corner of Meridian Road and Cherry Lane included as well. The Kobe Property is undeveloped and retains its historic agricultural use. The Kobe Property is currently located in unincorporated Ada County necessitating an inter-governmental agreement between MDC and Ada County to permit its inclusion within the boundaries of any future revenue allocation area. The area contains 105.63 acres in 150 separate tax parcels not including public rights-of-way. The properties within the Study Area carry zoning designations consistent with its historic usage. Commercial zoning designations are in place on 59.55 acres (56.4% of the district). Residential zoning of R-8 and R-15 predominate in the area. One parcel is zoned R-40. Commercial zoning is in place on 104 of the parcels. Residential zoning of R-8 occupies 11.61 acres, R-15 occupies 14.54 acres and R-40 occupies 2.29 acres. Properties designated as residential constitute 26.9%of the total acreage. The balance of the area is zoned Rural Urban Transition (RUT) in unincorporated Ada County. Ada County Assessor records show that 28 of the residential properties reflect a Homeowners Property Tax Exemption indicating they are owner occupied residences. Nineteen(19)vacant parcels represent 28.75%of the total land area of the Study Area. Religious and fraternal institutions and governmental entities occupy 13 tax parcels representing 8%of the total. The Study Area is one of the older developed areas in the community. As noted above, Meridian was established in the 188os and eventually incorporated as a Village under Idaho law in 1903. Most of the structures constructed as residences date to the first 20 years of the loth Century and most predate 1960. Many of these residential structures have transitioned into commercial uses over time. When the improvement value assigned to a parcel is less than or approaches the land value, a deteriorated or deteriorating condition is present.National real estate appraisal standards suggest that in an economically viable property,land value should contribute approximately 30%of the total value leaving 70%to the improvements.As that ratio shifts,with improvement value declining as a proportion of the total, a condition of disinvestment is determined to be present.At a point when the improvement value represents less than 50%of the total(i.e. improvement value is less than land value) such condition represents a"deteriorated condition"for the purposes of this analysis.We have assumed for this Study that those properties with improvement values less than 150 of land value approach the "deteriorated condition" and thus can be classified as "deteriorating" under the definitions in state law. With these benchmarks in mind, we find that 33 properties (20.4%) reflect improvement values less than land values and an additional 23 properties(14.2%)reflect improvement values less than 150%of land values. When considered together, 56 properties representing 34.6% of the total taxable parcels reflect a deteriorated or deteriorating condition. Streets: Fairview/Cherry Lane, Meridian Road, Main Street and Pine Avenue constitute the backbone of the street network in the Study Area. These streets have received recent investment with their condition reflecting current urban standards. The 17.64-acre Kobe property has not been subdivided to accommodate the vision expressed in the City's Comprehensive Plan, so no street network has been established in this property which represents the largest single land holding in the Study Area. The 4.o-acre parcel located at the extreme northerly edge of the Study Area has no direct access to a public street and therefore is landlocked. The area south of Fairview reflects a fine-grained grid pattern 121Page Page 466 Item#23. common to communities developed in the early loth century. However, the grid is incomplete in a number of places. For example, NE 3rd Street is interrupted in three places. Similar interruptions can be found on Gruber Avenue, Bradley Avenue and Washington Avenue. Improvement conditions reflecting current City and ACHD standards are in place in parts of the Study Area, but significant portions still lack curb, gutter and sidewalks. Pavement conditions vary from Good to Poor. Sections of East Washington and East Carlton located east of NE 21/2 Street appear to provide only half of the street width. Illumination: Street lighting levels are inconsistent creating a hazard as drivers'eyes must frequently adjust to differing light levels potentially obscuring pedestrians and roadway obstructions. Spacing between standard lighting fixtures varies throughout the Study Area and some arterial sections have smaller-scale decorative lighting in lieu of the standard fixture. Sidewalks: Pedestrian facilities are incomplete. Even where curb and gutter sections have been installed, sidewalks are often nonexistent. The fine-grained street grid pattern invites movements through the area on foot. Yet, in many situations in the Study Area, pedestrian traffic is forced to walk in the street due to a lack of facilities to accommodate that type of traffic. Storm Drainage: Those areas without modern curb and gutter sections in place also do not provide a means to collect and dispose of storm drainage or snow melt. This condition allows for surface ponding undermining the integrity of the street surface and obscuring hazards in wet conditions. Water System: A major portion of the Study Area is served by an 8"pipe grid providing looping for sufficient redundancy in case of a failure of a section of pipe. However, the City's Water System Master Plan notes several locations where 6" pipes remain in place and one location, north of Pine Avenue, on NE end Street is served by a 4"pipe. These 6" and 4" pipes would provide insufficient capacity to support fire flows as the area redevelops as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan. Sewage Collection System: No deficiencies in this area were noted. Analysis of the Study Area: A review of the Study Area reflects an area in transition. Much of the traditional housing stock has been converted to commercial uses and investment in multi-family structures has occurred in some instances. These investments reflect the vision expressed in the City's Comprehensive Plan. However, many of the residential structures remain in that use suggesting an area in transition. Substantial investment in public infrastructure throughout the entire Study Area will be required to support the achievement of the City's vision. The Kobe property will require investment as it currently has no infrastructure, other than the peripheral arterial streets, to support development consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Meaningful progress may depend upon some level of public intervention to support the private investment envisioned in the Plan. For the convenience of the reader,the statutory criteria are reiterated,at least one of which must be found to qualify an area for urban renewal activities. Those conditions are: 131Page Page 467 Item#23. 1. The Presence of a Substantial Number of Deteriorated or Deteriorating Structures and Deterioration of Site or Other Improvements 150-2o18(g)and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] 2.

Substantially Impairs or Arrests the Sound Growth of a Municipality 150-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b), 50-2903(8)(c)] Analysis: Northern GatewaX Criterion #1: The Presence of a Substantial Number of Deteriorated or Deteriorating Structures; and Deterioration of Site: We found that 33 properties (20.4%) reflect improvement values less than land values and an additional 23 properties(14.2%) reflect improvement values less than 150% of land values. When considered together, 56 properties representing 34.6% of the total taxable parcels reflect a deteriorated or deteriorating condition. Therefore, criterion #1 is met. Criterion #2: Age or Obsolescence: Most of the structures within the Study Area date from the first half of the loth Century.Most were constructed as residential buildings and while many having been converted to office uses, modern requirements for commercial use suggests the converted homes will eventually transition into more up-to-date office/commercial designs. A manufactured home community occupies land along NE 3rd Street that is designated for High Density Residential uses in the Comprehensive Plan. Over 28 acres in the Study Area,which is located in the central part of the City, northeast of the City's downtown core,remains vacant despite the City's articulated vision calling for a significantly more intense development pattern. Therefore, criterion #2 is met. Criterion #3: Predominance of Defective or Inadequate Street Layout: As noted above, certain streets in the Study Area are interrupted creating breaks in the traditional street grid pattern, which impairs traffic circulation and mobility goals. Several sections do not meet current urban street development standards. Therefore, criterion #3 is met. 141Page Page 468 Item#23. Criterion #4: Faulty Lot Layout in Relation to Size, Adequacy, Accessibility or Usefulness; Obsolete Platting: One 4-acre parcel located north of Fairview Avenue has no direct access to a public right-of-way. The Kobe 17.67-acre parcel has not been subdivided to accommodate the development pattern envisioned in City planning documents. Large vacant parcels south of Fairview interrupt the historic grid pattern of streets. The small residential parcel sizes impair development consistent with the Comprehensive Plan as property assembly would be necessary. Therefore, criterion #4 is met. Criterion #5: Insanitary or Unsafe Conditions: The lack of a complete system of sidewalks forcing pedestrians into the street creates an unsafe condition. This condition forces vehicles,bicycles and pedestrians to share roadways in an inconsistent manner and impairs multi-modal usages and overall mobility. Inconsistent street lighting patterns contribute to an unsafe driving situation. Therefore, criterion #5 is met. Criterion #6: Diversity of Ownership: The ownership of the 105.63 acres in the Study Area is in the hands of one hundred fifty(150)entities. Such diversity of ownership creates significant issues with property assemblage necessary to support the goals of the City's Comprehensive Plan. Therefore, criterion #6 is met. Criterion#7. Tax or Special Assessment Delinquency: According to Ada County Assessor records, no delinquencies exist. Therefore, criterion#7 is not met. Criterion #8:Defective or unusual condition of title: No defective or unusual conditions of title are reflected in Ada County records. Therefore, criterion #8 is not met. Criterion #9: Results in Economic Underdevelopment of the Area: Current uses within the Study Area are inconsistent with the goals set forth in the City's Comprehensive Plan. Additionally, as set forth above, a significant number of parcels reflect deteriorated or deteriorated conditions showing significant disinvestment in the Study Area. More than Twenty-eight(28.75)vacant acres in the central part of the City,one of the fastest growing communities in the nation, further suggests "Economic Underdevelopment" exists in the Study Area.Therefore, criterion#9 is met. Criterion#10:Substantially Impairs orArrests the Sound Growth of a Municipality:The State of Idaho, the City of Meridian and the Ada County Highway District have made substantial investment in the transportation and utility facilities serving this and the surrounding areas. The City of Meridian has expressed its vision for this area in the creation and adoption of the Comprehensive Plan,but without the capacity to provide full public infrastructure,the Study Area will remain an under-utilized area in the midst of the fastest growing area in the State of Idaho. Criterion#10 is met. Findings: Northern Gateway Conditions exist within the Study Area to allow the Board of Commissioners of the Meridian Development Corporation and the Meridian City Council to determine that the area is eligible for urban renewal activities as prescribed in State Law. Summary of Findings Criteria Met Not Met 1 The Presence of a Substantial Number of Deteriorated X or Deteriorating Structures; and Deterioration of Site 151Page Page 469 Item#23. 2 Age or Obsolescence X 3 Predominance of Defective or Inadequate Street X Layout 4 Faulty Lot Layout in Relation to Size,Adequacy, X Accessibility or Usefulness; Obsolete Platting 5 Insanitary or Unsafe Conditions X 6 Diversity of Ownership X 7 Tax or Special Assessment Delinquency X 8 Defective or unusual condition of title X 9 Results in Economic Underdevelopment of the Area X io Substantially Impairs or Arrests the Sound Growth of X a Municipality Analysis: Open Land Conditions: In addition to the eligibility conditions identified above, the geographic area under review also considers the "open land" conditions.Idaho Code Section 50-2903(8)(c)states: "[a]ny area which is predominately4 open and which because of obsolete platting, diversity of ownership, deterioration of structures or improvements, or otherwise, results in economic underdevelopment of the area or substantially impairs or arrests the sound growth of a municipality.The provisions of section 50-2oo8(d), Idaho Code,shall apply to open areas." The eligibility criteria set forth in Idaho Code Section 50-2903(8)(c) for predominantly open land areas mirror or are the same as those criteria set forth in Idaho Code Sections 50-2o18(9) and 50-2903(8)(b). "Diversity of ownership" is the same, while "obsolete platting" appears to be equivalent to "faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility,or usefulness.""Deterioration of structures or improvements"is the same or similar to "a substantial number of deteriorated or deteriorating structures" and "deterioration of site or other improvements."There is also an additional qualification that the provisions of Idaho Code Section 50-2oo8(d)shall apply to open areas. Idaho Code Section 50-2008 primarily addresses the urban renewal plan approval process and Idaho Code Section 50-20o8(d)(4) sets forth certain conditions and findings for agency acquisition of open land as follows: the urban renewal plan will 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: Provided, that 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 4 The statutes governing urban renewal set forth in Title 50,Chapters 20 and 29,Idaho Code,do not provide any guidance as to the definition of"predominantly." It is assumed for purposes of this Study that predominantly means more than 50%of the Study Area is"open land." Less than 25%of the parcels within the Study Area could conceivably fall within an open land designation.While the Study Area includes parcels that likely qualify as"open land,"making the findings pursuant to Idaho Code Section 50- 2903(8)(c)is not required. 161Page Page 470 Item#23. 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 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 this act, 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. In sum,there is one set of findings if the area of open land is to be acquired and developed for residential uses and a separate set of findings if the land is to be acquired and developed for nonresidential uses. Basically,open land areas may be acquired by an urban renewal agency and developed for nonresidential uses if such acquisition is necessary to solve various problems, associated with the land or the infrastructure, that have delayed the area's development. These problems include defective or usual conditions of title, diversity of ownership, tax delinquency, improper subdivisions, outmoded street patterns, deterioration of site, and faulty lot layout. All of the stated conditions are included in one form or another in the definition of a deteriorated area and/or a deteriorating area set forth in Idaho Code Sections 50-2903(8)(b) and 50-2o18(g). The conditions listed only in Section 50- 2oo8(d)(4)(2) (the open land section) include economic disuse, unsuitable topography, and"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." The conclusion of this discussion concerning open land areas is that the area qualifies if any of the eligibility conditions set forth in Idaho Code Sections 50-2018(g) and 50- 2903(8)(b) apply. Alternatively, the area under consideration qualifies if any of the conditions listed only in Idaho Code Section 50-2oo8(d)(4)(2) apply.The size of some of the parcels, the lack of water and sewer facilities in the undeveloped portion of the Study Area; a nonexistent access and internal street system; an inadequate storm drain system; and lack of fire protection, are all conditions which delay development of the large undeveloped properties in the Study Area. Based on the above analysis, to the extent the Study Area is "predominantly open land," which is not a defined term, obsolete platting/faulty lot layout and economic underdevelopment are conditions found in the Study Area, and therefore, the open land condition is satisfied. 171Page Page 471 Item#23. Other Relevant Issues: Agricultural Landowners Concurrence: The statutory provisions concerning the creation of an urban renewal district prohibit inclusion of any land used for an agricultural operation without the express written consent of the property owner.An agricultural operation is broadly defined in Idaho Code § 22-4502(2) and means "an activity or condition that occurs in connection with the production of agricultural products for food, fiber, fuel and other lawful uses..." One method of determining whether there exists an agricultural operation on a parcel is the presence of an agricultural property tax exemptions.As of the date of this Eligibility Study, one parcel, the Kobe property, particularly located in the northwest corner of the Study Area,maintains assessed values consistent with other agricultural lands and appears,from a visual inspection, to be an active agricultural operation. As a result, property owner consent is required prior to final consideration of the proposed district's creation. CONCLUSION: Based upon the data and the conditions that exist within the Study Area as noted above, the Meridian Development Corporation Board and Meridian City Council may determine that the Northern Gateway Study Area is eligible for the establishment of an urban renewal district. lo% Analysis: In addition to the findings reported above, verification that the assessed value of the proposed Study Area is within the statutory limits is needed. State Law limits the percentage of values on the combined base assessment rolls that can be included in urban renewal / revenue allocation districts to lo% of the current assessed valuation of all taxable property within the City. According to Ada County Assessor records, the 20206 total certified value for the City of Meridian is $13,230,528,301 (does not include operating property). This number does not reflect exemptions. Therefore, taking a more conservative approach, the net taxable value for this calculation is used. That number is $10,375,837,804. As shown in the analysis in Table 1 the current taxable value of the entire Study Area is estimated to be $68,832,947• This value then must be added to the Base Assessed Values of the Downtown District,the Ten Mile District and the Union District to test for the io%limitation. Given that at this time the City and MDC are considering the potential creation of an additional urban renewal district (the Linder URD) and an amendment to the Union URD to add additional area pursuant to Idaho Code Section 50-2033,we added their assessed values to this analysis to provide decision makers with the scale of the various districts compared to the statutory limitation. The analysis for these purposes in presented in Table 1,below. The combined base assessment roll values remain well below the statutory limit. Table i Statutory io%Limitation Analysis s With House Bill 560(2020)effective July 1,2020,eliminating the property tax exemption for agricultural land and replacing it with a method to value agricultural land,going forward the method to determine the existence of an agricultural operation will change. 6 At the time this Study was prepared the 2021 values were not available. It is generally understood the 2021 values will increase;therefore,using the 2020 assessed values may be more conservative than the current conditions. 181Page Page 472 Item#23.

MEMO TO CITY COUNCIL Request to Include Topic on the City Council Agenda From: Cameron Arial, Community Development Meeting Date: July 6, 2021 Presenter: Cameron Arial Estimated Time: 15 minutes Topic: Resolution No. 21-2274: A Resolution of the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Meridian, Idaho,Accepting that Certain Report on Eligibility for the Idaho Block Annexation Area as an Urban Renewal Area and Revenue Allocation Area and Justification for Designating the Area as Appropriate for an Urban Renewal Project; Determining that the Area Identified in the Report as the Proposed Amendment Area Adjacent and Contiguous to the Existing Union District Revenue Allocation Area Within the City of Meridian,to be a Deteriorated Area or a Deteriorating Area, or a Combination Thereof, as Defined by Idaho Code Sections 50-2018(9) and 50- 2903(8); Directing the Urban Renewal Agency of the City of Meridian, Idaho, also Known as the Meridian Development Corporation, to Commence the Preparation of an Urban Renewal Plan Amendment, which Plan Amendment May Include Revenue Allocation Provisions For All or Part of the Area; and Providing an Effective Date Background While downtown Meridian is beginning to experience renewed interest, the challenges in revitalizing aging downtown properties are still apparent. New private investment in the original downtown Meridian Revitalization District ("original District") has been hampered by the 2008- 2009 recession and, more recently, by uncertainties surrounding COVID-related changes in the commercial real estate market and rising development costs. Meridian Development Corporation ("MDC") has been engaged in urban renewal efforts in the original District since its adoption in late 2002. The original District will sunset in 2026. With limited time to utilize the urban renewal tools available to assist in funding public infrastructure improvements, many properties are likely to remain underutilized without intervention. It is difficult for property owners to justify redevelopment of the small, infill sites that make up the majority of the original District and fund the required public infrastructure improvements that condition development. Based on inquires and interest in the Idaho Block Study Area ("Study Area"), pictured below, MDC retained Kushlan I Associates to prepare an Eligibility Report to assess the viability of the Study Area as an urban renewal project and evaluate its concurrence with Idaho Code requirements. The Eligibility Report (Exhibit A of the proposed resolution) cites the conditions necessary as well as the financial findings required. The Study Area is proposed to be annexed into the adjacent Union District, created in 2020. Page 481 Item#24.

The assemblage of parcels can spread soft development costs over a larger area and when coupled with MDC's ability to fund public infrastructure improvements required of new development, can spur development interest. MDC accepted the Idaho Block Study Area Eligibility Report and, through MDC Resolution 21-027 adopted on June 9, 2021 (Exhibit B of the proposed resolution), authorized its transmittal to the City Council for consideration and, if accepted as appropriate for an urban renewal project, subsequent direction for MDC to proceed with preparation of an amended urban renewal plan providing for the annexation of the Study Area into the Union District. 2 Page 482 Item#24. Annexation of the Idaho Block Study Area's 11 parcels will add 1.461 acres to the existing 16-acre Union District. Idaho Code allows for a one-time amendment to extend the boundary of an existing revenue allocation area if the new area is contiguous and not more than ten percent of the existing area. A study area is required to meet at least one of ten conditions specified in Idaho Code Sections 50- 2018(9) and 50-2903(8) to qualify for urban renewal activities. The Eligibility Report finds that the Study Area meets four of the ten criteria (Eligibility Report, page 13). Approval of this resolution provides for: • Acceptance of the Idaho Block Study Area Eligibility Report, • Determination that the Study Area is contiguous to the existing Union District and, as specified in the Eligibility Report, meets the findings and characteristics stipulated in Idaho Code to establish an urban renewal plan amendment, and • Directs MDC to prepare a First Amendment to the Union District Urban Renewal Plan to annex the Study Area into the Union District. Future Actions The public hearing and second reading of the ordinance to adopt the Second Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Urban Renewal District providing for the deannexation of the Idaho Block Study Area from the original District also appear on this evening's agenda for Council consideration. Following Council acceptance of the Eligibility Report and direction for MDC to begin preparation of an amendment, staff and consultants will prepare a plan amendment specific to the annexation of the Study Area into the Union District. City and MDC staff will inform and engage property owners. In addition, Planning and Zoning Commission must review the proposed plan to validate its conformity with the City Comprehensive Plan. The First Amendment to the Union District Urban Renewal Plan will then be brought to the City Council for consideration and final adoption following three ordinance readings and a public hearing. It is anticipated that these final actions will occur mid-November through early December 2021. 3 Page 483 Item#24.

European settlement started in the 188os and was originally located on a farm owned by the Onweiler family. A school was opened in 1885. The U.S. Postal Service established a mail drop along the Oregon Short Line Railroad and the site was named Hunter after its superintendent. Community activity grew around this mail stop focused on the railroad. In 1893 an Odd Fellows lodge was organized and called itself Meridian, acknowledging that it was located on the Boise Meridian the primary North-South survey benchmark for Idaho. That name grew in primary use as the name of the settlement and the Village of Meridian was incorporated in 1903 with a population of approximately 200. The economy had traditionally been focused on the support of the surrounding agricultural activities. A major creamery was established in the community in 1897 to support the nearby dairies. Fruit orchards were located throughout the area. Meridian was a significant stop on the Interurban electric railway from 1908 to 1928.This service provided convenient access for passengers and freight in both easterly and westerly directions. Throughout most of the loth century, Meridian remained a relatively quiet community focused on its agricultural roots.US Census Bureau data,reflects a igio population of 619 people growing to 2,616 by 1970. However, starting in 1970 the pace of growth in Southwest Idaho quickened and Meridian's growth initially reflected, and then exceeded the regional rates by significant margins.Over the past twenty-five years the rate of growth 4 1 P a g e Page 492 Item#24. has been startling by any reasonable standard.The following table reflects that population growth over the city's history. 1903 (Incorporation Estimate) 200 1910 619 1920 1,013 1930 1,004 1940 1,465 1950 1,500 196o 2,100 1970 2,600 198o 6,658 1990 9,596 2000 34,919 2010 75,092 2020 114,200 2021 (Estimate) 129,555 When income statistics are compared to statewide numbers, the population of Meridian compares favorably with the rest of Idaho in these categories. The median household income in Meridian is $71,389, approximately 28%above the statewide figure of$55,785• Per capita money income for the Meridian population is $33,328 as compared to the statewide number of$27,970. The percentage of the Meridian population below poverty level is 8.6% as compared to the statewide number of 11.2%. Investment Capacity: Cities across the nation actively participate in the economic vitality of their communities through investment in infrastructure. Water and sewer facilities as well as transportation, communication, electrical distribution and other systems are all integral elements of an economically viable community. Idaho cities have a significant challenge in responding to these demands along with the on-going need to reinvest in their general physical plant to ensure it does not deteriorate to the point of system failure. They face stringent statutory and constitutional limitations on revenue generation and debt as well as near total dependence upon state legislative action to provide funding options.These strictures severely constrain capital investment strategies. The tools made available to cities in Title 50,Chapters 20 and 29,the Urban Renewal Law and the Local Economic Development Act are some of the few that are available to assist communities in their efforts to support economic vitality. New sources of State support are unlikely to become available in the foreseeable future, thus the City of Meridian's interest in exploring the potential for modifying the Union Urban Renewal District is an appropriate public policy consideration. The City of Meridian initially established its Urban Renewal Agency in 2001. As noted above, the Downtown District's exclusive focus, limited by the boundaries of the district, is on the traditional downtown area of Meridian.The Ten Mile District was created in 2016 and was designed to support the implementation of the Ten Mile Interchange Specific Area Plan.A third urban renewal district,the Union District,was created in 2020 from an area 5 1 P a g e Page 493 Item#24. de-annexed from the original Downtown District to support a significant mixed use- project. The proposed Northern Gateway Urban Renewal District would, if approved by the MDC Board of Commissioners and Meridian City Council, would remove 145 parcels from the existing Downtown District and combine those with other properties and rights-of-way north of Fairview Avenue and southeast of Fairview Avenue to establish a new district. The Union District annexation of the block located in downtown Meridian, bounded by Main Street, Idaho Avenue, NE end Street and Broadway Avenue is designated for this study as the Idaho Block. The Idaho Block is currently located within the boundaries of the Downtown District2 but is being considered for de-annexation to allow for inclusion into the adjacent Union District. Comprehensive Plan: The City of Meridian Comprehensive Plan, updated in 2oig designates the area under review as Old Town. ] « W- e I - r rya p,r 2 The Second Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan seeking to deannex certain parcels from the existing Downtown District,including what is referred to as the Idaho Block parcels that are contemplated to be considered for annexation into the existing Union District Project Area pursuant to Idaho Code Section 50-2033,has been approved by the MDC Board and submitted to the City for its consideration. 6 1 P a g e Page 494 Item#24. The Meridian Comprehensive Plan details the anticipated land uses in the various designations throughout the city.Those uses for the Old Town Area are articulated below. Old Town Land Uses 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 Steps in Consideration of an Amendment to an Urban Renewal District: The first step in consideration of amending an urban renewal district to add area in Idaho is to define a potential area for analysis as to whether conditions exist within it to qualify for redevelopment activities under the statute. We have called this the"Study Area." The next step in the process is to review the conditions within the Study Area to determine whether the area is eligible for annexation into an existing district. The State Law governing urban renewal sets out the following criteria, at least one of which must be found,for an area to be considered eligible for urban renewal activities: 1. The Presence of a Substantial Number of Deteriorated or Deteriorating Structures and Deterioration of Site or Other Improvements [50-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] 2.

Substantially Impairs or Arrests the Sound Growth of a Municipality 150- 2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] If the Eligibility Report finds that one or more of the conditions noted above exists within the Study Area,then the Agency may accept the findings and forward the Eligibility Report to the City Council for their consideration. If the City Council concurs with the determination of the Agency, they may direct that an Amendment to the Urban Renewal Plan be developed for the area that addresses the issues raised in the Eligibility Report. The Agency then acts to prepare the Amendment to the Urban Renewal Plan annexing the area into the existing District and establishing a Revenue Allocation Area for the expansion area to fund improvements called for in the Plan Amendment. Once the Plan Amendment for the District and Revenue Allocation Area are completed,the Agency Board forwards it to the City Council for their consideration. The City Council must refer the Amendment to the Urban Renewal Plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission to determine whether the Plan Amendment, as presented, is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan and make a corresponding finding.At the same time, other taxing entities levying property taxes within the boundaries of the proposed Urban Renewal District are provided a thirty-day opportunity to comment on the Plan Amendment to the City Council.While the taxing entities are invited to comment on the Plan Amendment,their concurrence is not required for the City Council to proceed with formal consideration. Based on legislative changes to Idaho Code § 50-2908(2)(a), effective July 1, 2020, the Ada County Highway District (ACHD) is allocated all of the taxes levied by ACHD within a revenue allocation area first formed or expanded to include property on or after July 1, 2020(including taxes levied on the base and increment values),which would apply to this proposed district, if formed. However,ACHD and MDC may enter into an agreement for a different allocation, which agreement shall be submitted to the State Tax Commission and to the Ada County Clerk by ACHD as soon as practicable after the parties have entered in the agreement and by no later than September 1 of the year in which the agreement takes effect. In the case of the Union District Annexation Study Area, the affected taxing districts are: 8 1 P a g e Page 496 Item#24. • The City of Meridian • The West Ada School District(School District No. 2) • Ada County • Emergency Medical District/Ada County Ambulance • Mosquito Abatement District • The Ada County Highway District • Meridian Library District • Meridian Cemetery District • Western Ada Recreation District • College of Western Idaho Once the Planning and Zoning Commission makes their finding of conformity and the thirty-day comment period has passed, the City Council is permitted to hold a public hearing and formally consider the adoption of the Plan Amendment annexing the expansion area into the existing Urban Renewal District and Revenue Allocation Area. The City Council must also find that the taxable value of the district to be created plus the Base Assessed Value of any existing Urban Renewal / Revenue Allocation Area does not exceed the statutory maximum of io%of the citywide assessed valuation. If the City Council, in their discretion chooses to proceed, they will officially adopt the Amendment to the Urban Renewal Plan and Revenue Allocation Area and provide official notification of that action to the affected taxing districts,County Assessor and Idaho State Tax Commission. The Agency then proceeds to implement the Plan Amendment. Description of the Union District Annexation Study Area: The Study Area subject to the current review is generally located in the central part of Meridian on the block bounded by Main Street on the west, Idaho Avenue on the north, NE end Street on the east and Broadway Avenue on the south.It contains 1.165 parcel acres (1.461 acres including to the centerline of Idaho Avenue) or 45,867.48square feet divided into eleven separate lots. Three lots3 are vacant with the remaining lots containing structures built during the early part of the 20g'Century. The size and value information presented below was derived from the Ada County Assessor's on-line parcel information system4. s While R5672000631 and R5672000632 are also vacant,combined these vacant lots represent.005 acres. 4 For purposes of this Study,the 2020 taxable values were reviewed as at the time of this review the 2021 value information was not available.Use of the 2020 values provides a more conservative analysis as it is generally understood significant value increases will occur in 2021.Further,based on the adoption of H389,effective retroactive to January 1,2021,the Homeowner Property Tax Exemption will increase to a maximum of$125,000.This is anticipated to further reduce the base.Again,as the 2021 tax assessments were not yet available at the time this Study was prepared,the 2020 data has been used.The 10%analysis set forth below will ultimately be revisited in any further amendment to the urban renewal plan. 9 1 P a g e Page 497 Item#24.

The rights-of way for the afore-mentioned streets are excluded from the de-annexation with the exception of the south half of Idaho Avenue between Main Street and NE end Street. The Study Area is one of the older developed areas in the community. As noted above, Meridian was established in the 188os and eventually incorporated as a Village under Idaho law in 1903.All of the structures date from the period from 1905 to 1947• 101Page Page 498 Item#24. When the improvement value assigned to a parcel is less than or approaches the land value, a deteriorated or deteriorating condition is present.National real estate appraisal standards suggest that in an economically viable property,land value should contribute approximately 30% of the total value leaving 70%to the improvements.As that ratio shifts,with improvement value declining as a proportion of the total, a condition of disinvestment is determined to be present.At a point when the improvement value represents less than 50%of the total(i.e.,improvement value is less than land value) such condition represents a "deteriorated condition" for the purposes of this analysis. With these benchmarks in mind,we find that none of the properties reflect improvement values less than land values. Three properties constituting 0.25 acres (io,890 Sq. Ft.) are currently vacant as the historic structures formerly located thereon having been razed. Streets: Only the south half of Idaho Avenue between Main Street and NE end Street would be included within the boundaries of the annexation. The other abutting streets and associated rights-of-way will remain either in the Downtown District(North half of Idaho Avenue and Main Street) or are already included in the Union District(NE end Street and Broadway Avenue). The portion of Idaho Avenue that is to be included in the annexation has been improved to urban standards. An alley bisects the block in an East-West orientation and the pavement reflects a deteriorated condition. Illumination: Street lighting,to City standards,has been provided along Idaho Avenue. Sidewalks: Pedestrian facilities on Idaho Avenue within the Study Area are in place and are in good condition. Storm Drainage: Street drainage is accommodated by a curb along the south side of Idaho Avenue carrying storm water to a catch basin located at the intersection of Idaho Avenue and Main Street. Water System: The Study Area is served by facilities located within those rights-of-way that will remain in the Downtown District.The facilities located within the right-of-way of Idaho Avenue appear sufficient to handle anticipated demands. Sewage Collection System: No deficiencies in this area were noted. Analysis of the Study Area: A review of the Study Area reflects an area in transition. The Union Urban Renewal District, created in 2020, is anticipated to accommodate a significant mixed-use commercial and residential development.New high-density housing is being constructed directly across Main Street. However,the Study Area retains its historic form of small lots and older buildings. For the convenience of the reader,the statutory criteria are reiterated,at least one of which must be found to qualify an area for urban renewal activities.Those conditions are: 1. The Presence of a Substantial Number of Deteriorated or Deteriorating Structures and Deterioration of Site or Other Improvements 150-2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] 111Page Page 499 Item#24. 2.

Substantially Impairs or Arrests the Sound Growth of a Municipality 150- 2018(9) and 50-2903(8)(b); 50-2903(8)(c)] Analysis: Union District Annexation of the Idaho Block Criterion #1: The Presence of a Substantial Number of Deteriorated or Deteriorating Structures;and Deterioration of Site:While all of the buildings within the Study Area are between 74 and 116 years old,they have been maintained and their assessed values do not reflect a deteriorated condition as described above.Therefore, criterion #1 is not met. Criterion #2:Age or Obsolescence:All of the structures within the Study Area date from the first half of the loth Century. The area around the Study Area is quickly transitioning into a modern commercial center.The configuration of the block into a series of small lots does not accommodate modern commercial floorplates making redevelopment economically infeasible. Three lots at the southeast corner of the Study Area have been cleared of their former structures and remain vacant.Therefore, criterion #2 is met. Criterion#3:Predominance of Defective or Inadequate Street Layout:The area is served by the existing urban street grid and,with the exception of the south half of Idaho Avenue, will remain outside the annexation area.Therefore, criterion #3 is not met. Criterion #4: Faulty Lot Layout in Relation to Size, Adequacy, Accessibility or Usefulness; Obsolete Platting:The eleven(11)parcels within the Study Area range in size from 2,178 square feet5 up to 14,810 square feet with the majority of the lots containing under 5,000 square feet. Modern commercial structures call for larger lot sizes to accommodate economical development.Therefore, criterion #4 is met. 5 Note the two sliver parcels R5672000631 and R5672000632 combined represent.005 acres,87.12 and 130.68,respectively,but are negligible to the analysis. 121Page Page 500 Item#24. Criterion #5:Insanitary or Unsafe Conditions:While the structures are old as compared to those in the broader community,there is no indication that any of them are in an unsafe condition. Community infrastructure providing services to the Study Area is either adequate or being upgraded with surrounding redevelopment activities. Therefore, criterion #5 is not met. Criterion #6: Diversity of Ownership: The ownership of the eleven lots located on 1.165 acres in the Study Area is in the hands of five (5) entities making a coordinated redevelopment effort difficult to achieve.Therefore, criterion #6 is met. Criterion #7. Tax or Special Assessment Delinquency:According to Ada County Assessor records, no delinquencies exist.Therefore, criterion #7 is not met. Criterion #8: Defective or unusual condition of title: No defective or unusual conditions of title are reflected in Ada County records.Therefore, criterion #8 is not met. Criterion#9:Results in Economic Underdevelopment of the Area:Three lots containing 1o,890 square feet, approximately 31% of the Study Area are vacant, having had their obsolete structures razed. The remaining lots are of a relatively small size making them uneconomic for redevelopment consistent with the regenerative activities occurring around the Study Area.Therefore, criterion #9 is met. Criterion#1 o:Substantially Impairs orArrests the Sound Growth of a Municipality:The City of Meridian has expressed its vision for this area in the creation and adoption of the Comprehensive Plan, and significant redevelopment is occurring around the Study Area. However,the area represented is relatively small representing only 1.165 acres and eleven lots.Therefore criterion#10 is met. Findings: Union District Annexation: Conditions exist within the Study Area to allow the Board of Commissioners of the Meridian Development Corporation and the Meridian City Council to determine that the area is eligible for urban renewal activities as prescribed in State Law.

Idaho Code Section 50-2903(8)(c)states: "[a]ny area which is predominately open and which because of obsolete platting, diversity of ownership, deterioration of structures or improvements, or otherwise, results in economic underdevelopment of the area or substantially impairs or arrests the sound growth of a municipality. The provisions of section 50-2oo8(d), Idaho Code, shall apply to open areas." The eligibility criteria set forth in Idaho Code Section 50-2903(8)(c) for predominantly open land areas mirror or are the same as those criteria set forth in Idaho Code Sections 50-2oi8(9) and 50-2903(8)(b). "Diversity of ownership" is the same, while "obsolete platting" appears to be equivalent to "faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility,or usefulness.""Deterioration of structures or improvements"is the same or similar to "a substantial number of deteriorated or deteriorating structures" and "deterioration of site or other improvements."There is also an additional qualification that the provisions of Idaho Code Section 50-2oo8(d)shall apply to open areas. Idaho Code Section 50-2008 primarily addresses the urban renewal plan approval process and Idaho Code Section 50-2oo8(d)(4) sets forth certain conditions and findings for agency acquisition of open land as follows: the urban renewal plan will 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: Provided, that 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 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 this act, 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 14 Page Page 502 Item#24. 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. In sum,there is one set of findings if the area of open land is to be acquired and developed for residential uses and a separate set of findings if the land is to be acquired and developed for nonresidential uses. Basically,open land areas may be acquired by an urban renewal agency and developed for nonresidential uses if such acquisition is necessary to solve various problems, associated with the land or the infrastructure, that have delayed the area's development. These problems include defective or usual conditions of title, diversity of ownership, tax delinquency, improper subdivisions, outmoded street patterns, deterioration of site, and faulty lot layout. All of the stated conditions are included in one form or another in the definition of a deteriorated area and/or a deteriorating area set forth in Idaho Code Sections 50-2903(8)(b) and 50-2018(9). The conditions listed only in Section 50- 2oo8(d)(4)(2) (the open land section) include economic disuse, unsuitable topography, and"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." The conclusion of this discussion concerning open land areas is that the area qualifies if any of the eligibility conditions set forth in Idaho Code Sections 50-2018(9) and 50- 2903(8)(b) apply. Alternatively, the area under consideration qualifies if any of the conditions listed only in Idaho Code Section 50-2oo8(d)(4)(2) apply. Given the historic nature of the Study Area and that it has been developed for several decades,even though three of the lots are vacant,the area should not be considered"Open Land"under the statutory definition. Other Relevant Issues: Agricultural Landowners Concurrence: None of the properties located within the Study Area have been used for agricultural operations purposes during the past three years so property owner concurrence is not required. CONCLUSION: Based upon the data and the conditions that exist within the Study Area as noted above, the Meridian Development Corporation Board and Meridian City Council may determine that Union District Annexation Study Area is eligible for the annexation to the Union Urban Renewal District. to o Valuation Analysis: In addition to the findings reported above,verification that the assessed value of the proposed Study Area is within the statutory limits is needed. State Law limits the percentage of values on the combined base assessment rolls that can be included in urban renewal/revenue allocation districts to io%of the current assessed valuation of all taxable property within the City. According to Ada County Assessor 151Page Page 503 Item#24. records, the 20207 total certified value for the City of Meridian is $13,230,528,301 (does not include operating property). This number does not reflect exemptions. Therefore, taking a more conservative approach, the net taxable value for this calculation is used. That number is $10,375,837,8O4. As shown in the analysis in Table 1 the 2O20 taxable value of the entire Study Area is estimated to be $3,414,100. This value then must be added to the Base Assessed Values of the Downtown District$, the Ten Mile District and the Union District to test for the 10%limitation. Given that at this time the City and MDC are considering the potential creation of additional urban renewal districts (the Linder URD and the Northern Gateway URD), we added their assessed values to this analysis to provide decision makers with the scale of the various districts compared to the statutory limitation. The analysis for these purposes in presented in Tables 2 and 3, below. The combined base assessment roll values remain well below the statutory limit. Table 2 Statutory 10% Limitation Analysis Area Taxable Value Percentage Total City $10,375,837,804 100% Downtown URD Base Value $146,334,050 1.41% Ten Mile URD $ 39,539,125 0.38% Union URD $2,144,360 0.02% *Proposed Northern Gateway URD $68,832,974 0.66% *Proposed Linder URD $11,978,500 0.12% Proposed Union District Annexation(est.) $3,414,100 0.03 Total UR Base Assessed Value $272,2439109 2.62% Percentage *The MDC Board has considered and accepted the proposed Linder District Eligibility Study. The MDC Board is anticipated to consider the eligibility of the proposed Northern Gateway District in June. The effect of annexing the Idaho Block into the existing Union District on the capacity of the City and MDC to consider future districts should they choose to do so is also explored. The table below shows there is capacity to consider additional districts. Table 3 Remaining Urban Renewal Capacity Maximum 10% Limitation $1,O37,583,780 10% Downtown URD $146,334,050 1.41% Ten Mile URD $ 39,539,125 0.38% Union URD $2,144,360 0.02% Proposed Northern Gateway URD $68,832,947 0.66% Proposed Linder URD $11,996,035 0.12% At the time this Study was prepared the 2021 values were not available.It is generally understood the 2021 values will increase;therefore,using the 2020 assessed values may be more conservative than the current conditions. 8 For purposes of this Study and since the Second Amendment to the Meridian Revitalization Plan has not yet been adopted,the values of the certain geographic areas to be de-annexed from the Downtown District have not been adjusted downwards.This presents a more conservative scenario. 161Page Page 504 Item#24. Proposed Union District Annexation $3,414,100 0.03 (est.) Available AV within limitation $765,340,671 7.38 to% Geographic Analysis: In addition to the findings reported above, verification that the geographic area proposed to be annexed into the existing Union District is within the statutory limits is needed. State Law limits the number of acres that may be annexed into an existing district. Idaho Code Section 50-2033 states, in pertinent part: "...an urban renewal plan that includes a revenue allocation area may be extended only one(1)time to extend the boundary of the revenue allocation so long as the total area to be added is not greater than ten percent(10%) of the existing revenue allocation area and the area to be added is contiguous to the existing revenue allocation area but such contiguity cannot be established solely by a shoestring or strip of land which comprises a railroad or public right-of-way."The existing Union District is 15.86 acres; therefore,the Union District is permitted to be amended one(1)time to include up to 1.58 acres.The Idaho Block represents 1.461 acres,which is within the permitted annexation limitation. A plan amendment to increase the revenue allocation area boundary as permitted in Idaho Code Section 50-2033 is not a modification pursuant to Idaho Code Section 50- 2903A.

C� fIEN , IN4, IDAHG-. MEMO TO CITY COUNCIL Request to Include Topic on the City Council Agenda From: Dave Miles, Mayor's Office Meeting Date: July 6 2021 Presenter: Dave Miles Estimated Time: 5 mins Topic: Budget Amendment- Production Room Computer Replacement, Software & Equipment Recommended Council Action: Approve the fiscal year 2021 budget amendment in the amount of$4,500 for costs associated with replacing the computer, and acquiring updated software &equipment associated with video production needs. Background: The City maintains a video production computer and software in the Council Chambers Production Room. The computer and software is used for various communication video needs including internal and external video products and requires various video equipment (microphones,tripods, etc.) for production needs. The current MAC computer has malfunctioned beyond repair based on IT evaluation. Based on needs and functionality it is recommended to replace with a windows-based machine and the associated software for video production. During this evaluation, the Communication's team also inventoried equipment and has the need to acquire equipment to maintain continuity in active video production projects and needs. This budget amendment will allow for video production needs to continue uninterrupted.

Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan Executive Summary AP-05 Executive Summary - 24 CFR 91.200(c), 91.220(b) 1. Introduction The City of Meridian was designated an Entitlement Community by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD) in 2007.This designation allows the City to receive funds directly from HUD's Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) Program on an annual basis.The City is currently working under the regulatory Five-Year Consolidated Plan (Con Plan)for program years 2017-2021. The Con Plan describes the anticipated strategies,goals, and community development needs identified during a collaborative process that included input from community members and local entities. This Action Plan is for the final year of the 2017-2021 Con Plan and will provide direction to the City of Meridian CDBG Program (Program)for Program Year 2021 (PY21) which spans from October 1, 2021— September 30, 2022.The PY21 Action Plan provides a summary of the actions, activities,and resources that will be used during PY21 to address the goals and priority needs identified in the 2017-2021 Con Plan. 2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan The City is focusing its activities and funding during PY21 on 1) improving accessibility by prioritizing projects that improve residents' access to public facilities and community resources; 2) enhancing homeownership opportunities by obtaining or maintaining homes that are affordable; 3) promoting fair housing, and 4) providing social services that provide stability to Meridian residents with a low to moderate income. 3. Evaluation of past performance Since 2007, Meridian has successfully managed over$4.7 million in resources from its annual CDBG allocation. Over the years,the City's expenditures from its CDBG allocation have focused on supporting social service provider operations such as the Meridian Food Bank, improving community facilities for organizations such as the Boys and Girls Club and Meridian Development Corporation; addressing accessibility barriers to places such as parks and trails, Meridian Libraries, and sidewalk projects; preventing homelessness with emergency assistance through The Jesse Tree of Idaho; and assisting with homeownership attainment for low-and moderate-income buyers through the Ada County Housing Authority and NeighborWorks Boise. The City has submitted Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Reports (CAPERS)for all previous program years.The CAPERS demonstrate that the City exceeds the statutory requirement of at least 70 percent of funds expended being invested in activities that benefit low to moderate-income City of Meridian 1 1 Page 530 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan individuals and families.Aside from Program Year 2016,the City has met its expenditure of grant funds deadlines imposed by HUD each year. All of the prior program years' activities meet critical needs in Meridian.The primary challenges encountered during the last Consolidated Plan period were timing and contract related.To address these challenges,the City has implemented more stringent requirements for subrecipients, particularly in meeting expected schedules. Over the several years,the City has been effective at organizing, streamlining,and managing its CDBG processes to provide the most benefit for each CDBG dollar granted while complying with federal timeliness requirements. 4. Summary of Citizen Participation Process and consultation process The citizen participation process for the PY21 Action Plan followed the process identified in the City's Citizen Participation Plan,adopted with the 2017-2021 Con Plan. Public comments were accepted from June 11, 2021 to July 20, 2021 with a public hearing being held on July 20, 2021. The City published legal notices in two local newspapers (Idaho Statesman and Meridian Press Tribune) and posted the draft Action Plan on the City's website on June 11, 2021. Presentations of the draft Action Plan and included projects were provided to stakeholders at the City Council meetings on July 6, 2021 and July 20, 2021. To broaden public participation in the development of the plan,the City coordinated with several organizations that work with LMI populations to gain a better understanding of the community needs and identify projects that would be beneficial to the residents of Meridian.The feedback received supported the goals and strategies identified in the 2017-2021 Con Plan. Invitations to apply were provided through e-mails, phone calls, and publication announcements on the City website, Boise City/Ada County Continuum of Care (CoC) distribution list, Region 4 Behavioral Health Board distribution list, and in the local newspapers. 5. Summary of public comments Will be updated after public comment period. 6. Summary of comments or views not accepted and the reasons for not accepting them Update as necessary. 7. Summary The City of Meridian has collaborated with stakeholders throughout the community to develop the PY21 Action Plan in a manner that is consistent with the goals and strategies identified in the 2017-2021 Con Plan,which remains relevant to the current needs of the community. The City plans to continue improving the Program based on feedback from the community to ensure the intent of the Program continues to be met. City of Meridian 2 Page 531 Item#26.

Introduction The City of Meridian engages stakeholders via social media, email, and the City's website. Community stakeholders include, but are not limited to: citizens of Meridian; current and past CDBG subrecipients; Idaho Housing and Finance Association (IHFA); Idaho Department of Health and Welfare (Divisions of Behavioral Health, Medicaid,and Public Health); Central District Health Department; Meridian Downtown Business Association; Region 4 Behavioral Health Board; Our Path Home Connect (coordinated entry); Region 4 Crisis Center; and Boise City/Ada County Continuum of Care (CoC). Agencies were identified for participation in the PY21 Meridian CDBG competitive application based on the needs and priorities identified during the 2017-2021 Con Plan planning process. Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction's activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(1)) The City collaborated with the Ada County Housing Authority(ACHA),which is the local public housing authority,to assist the City in better understanding ACHA's resources and needs. While there are no public housing units in Meridian,an estimated 10 percent of the housing authority's total voucher supply are used within Meridian City limits. ACHA and the City are both involved with the CoC.The CoC meetings provide an opportunity to collaborate with regional and local housing providers (public, nonprofit, and private) and health and social service agencies (including private and non-profit mental health, emergency, and healthcare providers). During PY18 the City and CoC connected with the Region 4 Behavioral Health Board (BHB), a government entity established by the State of Idaho in coordination with Idaho Health and Welfare. The BHB advises the State Behavioral Health Authority and the State Planning Council of the needs in this region and is facilitated by Central District Health (CDH).This collaboration provides access to a large number of agencies and citizens with expertise in mental health services,substance use disorders, law enforcement, education, and healthcare. City staff continues to be engaged with the BHB to identify ways to enhance coordination between ACHA and healthcare providers, mental health services, and other supportive service agencies. CDH also provides information related to housing units in which children have been identified as being lead poisoned concerning lead-based paint hazards, but since the majority of houses in Meridian were built after 1980 this has not been a concern. City of Meridian 4 Page 533 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan Additionally,the City has developed a socioeconomic profile of Meridian that will identify gaps in service, likely partnerships,and needs of the community.The City is dedicated to extending further support to organizations that help to meet the identified needs of the community. One need that is readily apparent is the need for housing affordability and rental support. Meridian is dedicated to increasing its inventory of housing that is affordable to ensure residents of all income levels can find housing in Meridian and to provide necessary supportive services. City staff will continue to stay engaged with the housing affordability and supportive service community so the City can better provide important tools and resources to affordable housing developers and supportive service providers. Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children,veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness. The City participates in the CoC, locally branded as Our Path Home Connect,which includes staff members from neighboring communities along with healthcare,foster care and other youth programs, mental health providers,Ada County, law enforcement, nonprofit providers, state departments and school districts among other entities. In 2017 Our Path Home Connect launched coordinated entry which provides a single point of entry for households experiencing homelessness. Due to the data collected through coordinated entry, Our Path Home Connect has identified four strategic initiatives: end family homelessness, prevent first-time homelessness, expand supportive housing opportunities, and evolve the partnership.The involvement of foster care and other youth programs has encouraged the City to further evaluate the non-traditional homelessness experienced by youth and their families in Meridian. The City has also updated internal policies to include a representative from the CoC to provide feedback on the current needs to the CDBG Scoring Committee,which reviews applications for CDBG funding and recommends projects to be funded.This collaboration provides an opportunity to involve the CoC in the planning process and identify projects that will address the needs of those who are currently or at risk of homelessness. Additionally,the City acts as a liaison between the Behavioral Health Board (BHB) and the CoC.The BHB is facilitated by Central District Health (CDH) and is comprised of 23 stakeholders,advocates,and professionals including the Idaho Department of Corrections for adults, Boise Police Department,Adult Mental Health staff that are responsible for discharging participants from state run psychiatric facilities, and Children's Mental Health staff that work with families in crisis. Involvement with this group allows the City to understand the broader needs of the community as related to behavioral health in general and specifically for those who are being discharged from institutional settings such as mental health facilities and corrections programs.

While no agencies were left out,the City does not have a citizen's advisory group to consult with. Citizens are requested to participate in public hearings and public presentations via social media and local newspapers, but there is no formal group.To gather citizen input specific to the slum and blighted area where CDBG funds are to be used,the City contacted residents who live in that area directly while the Redevelopment Plan was being developed and again when the Redevelopment Plan was being approved. Residents were also informed of the potential projects in this area during the development of the plan as well as the CDBG process of selecting projects annually. Invitations for public presentations related to the Action Plan and Project Applications were then sent out by email and social media. Moving forward,the City would like to improve its coordination with housing developers, particularly those developers who specialize in the development of workforce and affordable housing. Increased efforts were not made this year to reach out to these groups as the City is still working to develop internal strategies and plans about how it wants to address the housing affordability needs in the community and how to engage developers in that process.The City is also developing a new Comprehensive Plan that includes consultants doing consultations in the coming months.The decision was made to couple the needed consultation efforts of these Community Development activities with comprehensive planning consultation activities.

A common obstacle for public service projects is the lack of available funding to provide the necessary level of services.To address this,subrecipients will leverage other funding sources and utilize screening criteria to provide services to those with the highest level of need first. The main obstacle for housing projects in Meridian is related to the soaring housing market in Meridian and lack of affordable homes.The Homeowner Repair Program provides owner-occupied rehabilitation for those who already own homes they can afford in order to keep them stably housed. A potential obstacle to addressing the underserved needs is making the community aware of this program.The City will continue to assist the subrecipient with outreach for this program. The accessibility projects have the potential obstacle of rising construction costs, which is related to the soaring housing market. It is often difficult to find a contractor to complete smaller construction City of Meridian 29 1 Page 558 Item#26.

Funding is determined by meeting national objectives, qualifying eligible activities, and through a competitive application process.The City does not specify target areas by census tract or block group.The use of CDBG funding is not pre-determined on areas of low-and moderate- income concentration or racial characteristics. Service agencies providing CDBG funded services are primarily located in Boise; however, low-and moderate-income clients served reside in Meridian. Area benefit activities benefit at least one of the four (4) census tracts that fall within Meridian's LMI area,which include census tracts: 0103.21; 0103.22; 0103.31; and 0103.35.

AP-60 Public Housing - 91.220(h) Introduction The City of Meridian is served by the Ada County Housing Authority(ACHA),who administers the Homeownership Voucher Program, Housing Choice Voucher, Mainstream Voucher, as well as managing the Family Self Sufficiency Program. Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing As part of the City's overall Comprehensive Plan, Meridian has identified a goal of offering a diversity of housing types for all economic levels throughout the City.To accomplish this goal, Meridian encourages quality housing projects for all economic levels throughout the city.The City supports 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 opportunities to provide housing that is affordable to all. In spite of these efforts,ACHA has identified a lack of affordable units as one of the barriers to eligible renters and potential homeowners. Meridian is one of the towns within Ada County, which ACHA serves. ACHA has a 72%success rate, whereas the national average is typically a 65-69%success rate. This leaves an estimated 28%of households receiving Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV) in Ada County unable to identify housing within City of Meridian 38 Page 567 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan 120 days, requiring them to relinquish the voucher and return to the waiting list. There are many reasons a participant may not be able to identify a housing unit including: • Landlords feel there is too much "red tape" associated with the vouchers; • Rents in this community are often above the fair market rents HUD allows; • Misperception that voucher holders make bad tenants; • Poor credit/rental history or criminal background may make some ineligible; or • Lack of units that will accommodate larger families. The City will continue to collaborate with ACHA,the CoC, and other partners during PY21.The City is in the process of updating its Strategic Plan,which will includes tasks related to housing affordability. Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership ACHA encourages public housing residents to participate in homeownership by: • Referring families interested in homeownership to first-time homebuyer workshops covering the following topics: benefits of and preparation for homeownership,credit analysis, FICO scoring methodology, mortgage types and requirements, private mortgage insurance, loan-to- value ratio, down payment assistance programs, escrow and title process, property taxes, home maintenance, and homeowner responsibilities. • Providing one-on-one meetings with a Homeownership Coordinator to determine short-and long-term goals in obtaining homeownership and to make a plan to reduce any barriers that need to be addressed. • Collaborating with nonprofit partner agencies, lenders, and realtors in the delivery of counseling services for low-to moderate-income first-time homebuyers in the FSS/HCV programs. Expanding partnerships with community organizations, lending institutions, and real estate professionals. • Actively marketing the Homeownership Assistance program to existing voucher holders through quarterly newsletters and attending the annual recertification meetings for voucher holders to explain the programs. If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be City of Meridian 39 Page 568 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan provided or other assistance ACHA is not a troubled PHA. Discussion The City is committed to helping LMI households access necessary services and homeownership as desired through a variety of methods. AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities — 91.220(i) Introduction The City coordinates with the Boise City/Ada County Continuum of Care (CoC) and the Region 4 Behavioral Health Board (BHB)to identify the strategies to address needs of those who are at risk of or currently experiencing homelessness. Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs The City of Meridian has been a member of the CoC for the last six years to better understand and coordinate the needs that Meridian residents who are currently or at risk of experiencing homelessness face and how to better serve them. In addition, City representatives are frequently involved in public discussions, presentations, and meetings with citizens, other government officials, and local service providers including West Ada School District,Jesse Tree, and CATCH to provide support, understanding, and outreach to those who are experiencing homelessness in Meridian. In previous years,the City worked with the CoC to add data points to the CoC's Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)to enable the City to determine how many Meridian residents are experiencing homelessness and the reasons for their housing crisis.This data and information was evaluated while developing the PY21 Action Plan to better inform strategies and partnerships for the City to implement. The City is committed to serving the individual needs of Meridian's homeless population as identified by the CoC and local organizations. The City has also worked with the CoC to conduct the annual Point-in-Time Count,which helps determine the number of people who are experiencing homelessness on a given day.This information allows the City to understand the level of homelessness in Meridian and to develop a program that better serves those in need.The City will continue to assist with this process in upcoming years. City of Meridian 40 1 Page 569 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan The City intends to continue to use its partners to identify, understand, and support those experiencing homelessness (especially persons experiencing unsheltered homelessness) or at risk of homelessness with special needs in Meridian. Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons While there are emergency shelter and transitional housing facilities located in other nearby cities in the Treasure Valley, none of these facilities are located within City of Meridian. The City has prioritized funding homelessness prevention to mitigate the need for these services, but also works with the CoC to assist Meridian residents who are in need of emergency shelter. The City encourages agencies who provide these services to apply for CDBG funding, but there were no applications during PY21 for projects directly related to emergency shelters or transitional housing projects. However, all services to be funded are available to those who qualify. Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families,families with children,veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again The City will provide funding to NeighborWorks Boise to assist with homeowner repairs to Meridian residents with a low-and moderate-income to keep them in housing they can afford. In addition, Meridian's work with Jesse Tree has helped provide rental and case management services aimed at preventing and resolving needs for those currently experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness in Meridian. The partnerships that the City has with local committees, organizations, and networks in evaluating, understanding, and addressing the many needs of Meridian residents experiencing homelessness include Meridian Police Department,Ada County Sheriff's Office, City of Boise, City of Nampa, City of Caldwell,Women's and Children's Alliance,Jesse Tree, Boys&Girls Clubs of Ada County,West Ada School District, CATCH,Ada County Housing Authority, Local HUD office, CoC, Meridian Food Bank, United Way, NeighborWorks Boise, IHFA,Terry Riley, EI-Ada Community Action, Our Path Home Connect, and many others.These partnerships are extensive and ongoing in order to help address and prevent homelessness in Meridian. These efforts, particularly coordination and participation with CATCH and the CoC, are designed to assist local service providers in helping persons experiencing homelessness make the transition to permanent housing and independent living while shortening the time individuals and families experience City of Meridian 41 Page 570 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan homelessness. In addition,the City's relationships with ACHA, CATCH,and Jesse Tree are aimed to develop activities through the Program that facilitate access for individuals and families experiencing homelessness to affordable housing units while also preventing individuals and families from becoming homeless. Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs. The City is involved in the CoC,which is comprised of representation from ACHA, Health and Welfare, mental health service providers and other service agencies, including law enforcement and correctional agencies.The CoC coordinates, collects data, reviews data,and prioritizes strategies based on data and input from providers. Coordinated entry serves all communities within Ada County and case conferencing is conducted weekly. The City is also involved in the Behavioral Health Board (BHB),which focuses on mental health and substance use disorders.The BHB is a government entity established by the Idaho legislature in 2014 to advise Idaho's behavioral health authority, identify gaps, and promote improvements to the delivery of integrated services for behavioral health in Idaho.The Board promotes and supports prevention, intervention, recovery and resiliency for individuals and families in need. It is composed of 23 stakeholders, advocates, and professionals across the continuum of care. Involvement with this group allows the City to understand the broader needs of the community as related to behavioral health in general and specifically for those who are being discharged from institutional settings such as mental health facilities and corrections programs. During PY21 the City will also provide funding to Jesse Tree to keep families, individuals, and children who are at risk of eviction stably housed. Meridian partners with other organizations,such as the West Ada School District,to assess needs and provide services for those at risk of becoming homeless. Discussion Much of the work funded through the Program is directed at housing stability for Meridian's LMI residents. In addition to the services previously mentioned,the City is focusing on public transportation for seniors,ADA compliance improvements to public facilities, and public facility improvements such as sidewalk and streetlight improvements in LMI areas to meet the needs of those in the community who City of Meridian 42 Page 571 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan may or may not be experiencing homelessness. AP-75 Barriers to affordable housing - 91.220a) Introduction: Section V of the Consolidated Plan and Fair Housing Assessment analyzes public and private barriers to housing choice in Meridian. Stakeholders were also interviewed about housing barriers. Barriers associated with tax policies, land use controls and zoning, building codes,fees and charges,growth limits, and policies affecting the return on residential investment were not identified as barriers. On the contrary,the review found a favorable environment for development and a migration toward more diverse housing types. As such,the actions summarized below do NOT address the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing(policies, procedures, processes). Instead,they focus on actions that address other types of identified barriers. Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls,tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges,growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment The City has expressed a commitment to creating more diverse housing types through its redevelopment plan for downtown.The Destination Downtown plan states that creating diverse housing opportunities for different housing needs and life-cycles in downtown Meridian is important to support new businesses and activity.A healthy housing mix will also help to draw people downtown and ensure 24-7 activity. Housing created or redeveloped as part of the downtown plan is expected to include apartments,townhomes, condominiums,duplexes, and single-family homes.The City helped facilitate multiple RFPs over the past several years for a large portion of the publicly-owned properties in downtown Meridian with a priority given to proposals that focused on developing mixed use and high- density housing. One project that was awarded, Downtown Lofts,will bring several affordable units to downtown Meridian including six(6)that will be dedicated to CATCH participants.This project is expected to be completed in 2021. In 2017,to evaluate potential fair housing concerns within the City's zoning code, the City had BBC Consulting utilize a "Review of Public Policies and Practices (Zoning and Planning Codes)"form recently circulated by the Los Angeles fair housing office of HUD.The research did not reveal any negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing. This includes land use controls,tax policies affecting land,zoning ordinances, building codes,fees and charges,growth limitations, and policies City of Meridian 43 Page 572 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan affecting returns on residential investment. Additionally,the City continues to review of potential policy and code changes that will incentivize the future development of multi-family and affordable housing units in Meridian. Discussion: The City will continue to identify areas to reduce barriers t affordable housing. AP-85 Other Actions - 91.220(k) Introduction: This section discusses the Other Actions the City will take to address the needs of low-income residents. Actions planned to address obstacles to meeting underserved needs The City will continue to engage in conversations with neighboring communities and service providers to identify and address underserved needs, maintain affordable housing,and reduce the number of families living in poverty. During PY21,the City has allocated funding to provide housing stability for those at risk of homelessness and extended care programs that offer youth a positive place to go. Additionally,the Economic Development Administrator works closely with the CDBG program in an effort to better align the needs of our residents. The City will increase relationships with private providers, developers, and social services providers to reduce the obstacles for Meridian residents to achieve decent housing,a suitable living environment, and expanded economic opportunities. Actions planned to foster and maintain affordable housing The City intends to partner with local service providers that will assist in fostering and maintaining affordable housing. Projects funded during PY21 will provide: emergency assistance to families who are at risk of eviction and homelessness; assistance for homeowners to make necessary improvements to maintain their current housing; and, scholarships for children to participate in extended care programs so their caregivers can work.Additionally,the City will be working with service providers that focus on providing stability to those with mental health and/or substance use disorders to allow them to gain or maintain affordable housing with access to care coordination. The City will also explore additional partnerships—including partnerships with mission-driven and City of Meridian 44 1 Page 573 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan private developers—to bring more workforce housing into downtown and underutilized land parcels. The City collaborates with the Economic Development Administrator to explore the development of workforce housing and opportunities for residents to increase their income in an effort to foster and maintain affordable housing. Actions planned to reduce lead-based paint hazards Over the course of the upcoming program year,the City will provide information regarding lead-based paint hazards to educate the public and continue to gauge the prevalence of lead paint contamination within the City. There is a wealth of information already available from HUD,the State, neighboring communities, and various organizations that staff will gather and make available at City Hall,on the City's website, and at other locations throughout the community as needed. Additionally, City staff has reached out to CDH staff to ensure they have a contact person if lead-based paint hazards arise. Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families The City will fund projects to assist poverty-level individuals and families access services that provide a support system and allow them to focus on the steps they need to take to improve their living situation. Projects include programs that provide emergency assistance to families who are at risk of homelessness and housing cost assistance for residents unable to cover the full costs of home purchases.The City's Strategic Plan also intends to address poverty-based issues through the expansion of necessary public services and the expansion of quality employment opportunities for the jurisdiction's LMI population. As part of its Strategic Plan,the City is working on an in-depth socioeconomic profile of the City to help identify the needs of community members as it pertains to housing,finances,food, education, healthcare, and transportation. Completing this research will allow the City to better understand the factors that are contributing to residents who are facing poverty in Meridian, as well as help define solutions that could help mitigate those factors.The City's hope is that this research will provide long- term insights and strategies to reduce the number of poverty-level families in Meridian. Actions planned to develop institutional structure In recent years the City made the CDBG Administrator position a full-time position and changed the position title to Community Development Program Coordinator.This position is now funded out of the City's general fund.This institutional change is designed to provide more time to effectively manage the CDBG program and provide flexibility for the position to expand efforts into economic and other areas that can help meet the community development needs of the City. Staff will continue to work to attain relevant and appropriate professional development trainings during the program year to learn and address current and future institutional problems. Discussions will continue about the expansion and City of Meridian 45 Page Page 574 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan opportunities to add new program staff to assist in this community development work. The City has been involved in the institutional restructuring of the CoC as well as the implementation of new HMIS and Coordinated Entry standards for service providers in the County.These activities have dramatically altered the institutional framework of housing and other service providers in the region and has improved the efficiency and transparency of the coordinated work being done to address these needs.The City hopes to identify new institutional structures that can be developed, reformed or changed to better support the needs of those most at risk in the region (e.g. transitional and emergency housing networks). Actions planned to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies City staff will be working with the CoC to identify ways to enhance coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies.As in many communities,there is not enough funding to provide the level of services we'd like so the CoC plans to identify a way of coordinating services that are available and reducing duplication of services for a more effective use of funding. Multiple methods will be explored including phone apps and enhancing services that are already available. The City's partnership and funding relationship with local housing service organizations including NeighborWorks Boise,Jesse Tree, and Ada County Housing Authority will continue to expand in this program year. In addition,coordination with other organizations like CATCH, Boise Rescue Mission, Interfaith Sanctuary,Terry Reilley, EI-Ada Community Action,Jannus, Idaho Office for Refugees,Agency for New Americans,Women's and Children's Alliance, and all members associated with the local CoC (including private housing developers)will continue to be built upon to improve networks, coordination, and problem solving in the jurisdiction. Meridian's participation in the local CoC, housing and homelessness roundtables, and other regional coordination efforts outlines the City's continued action plan for enhancing the networking and coordination between public and private housing and social service agencies. Discussion: The City intends to fund multiple projects that will improve access to affordable housing and suitable living environments for Meridian residents. Staff will be working with subrecipients to identify barriers within their programs and find ways to address them to provide more effective services. Staff will also City of Meridian 46 Page 575 Item#26. Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) PY21 Action Plan identify ways to improve and expand Meridian's CDBG Program for future years.

(:> E IDIAN*-----, AGENDA ITEM ITEM TOPIC: Transportation Commission: Pathway Crossing Concerns Page 582 Item#27. E IDIAN:--- IDAHO C� MEMO TO CITY COUNCIL Agenda Topic on the City Council Agenda From: Meridian Transportation Commission Date: June 2, 2021 Presenter: Walter Steed, Chair&Ryan Lancaster, Commissioner Estimated Time: 15 minutes Topic: Transportation Commission: Pathway Crossing Concerns The Meridian Transportation Commission recommends that Meridian City Council request ACHD to look at redesign of multiuse pathway and sidewalk crossings. Meridian staff have expressed concerns with ACHD staff about new designs placing pathway crossings behind and between cars at street intersections and the visibility conflicts it creates.ACHD staff responded recently that they are acting as they have been directed and any changes will have to come from the executive level. As such, Meridian staff brought their concerns forward to the Transportation Commission. In May 2021,the Meridian Transportation Commission discussed the pathway crossing in the 95% design for Lake Hazel Road and Eagle Road. After discussion of staff concerns, reflection of past Commission discussions, and review of the example in this project at E Levin Dr, the Commission felt that the issue warranted closer review. As there are no similar urban examples, there is concern with committing to a treatment without testing/experiencing it first.While this treatment may make sense in certain conditions, staff is not convinced that residential corridors, with distractions such as landscaping, are the appropriate 66 I 1II\I R34717' (R,11%"-iP WR266-"67 1248 4ta - 3 6'37 3S1r 35R 0 +6/ !

Bike and especially pedestrian supportive designs are very sensitive to perception, and human behavior can have significant implications on function. In the Lake Hazel Road and Eagle Road design shown, you can see the crossing is pulled back from the intersection. The perceived benefit is to allow vehicles to approach without blocking the crossing. However,a vehicle may still just as easily block the crosswalk,and if done,this negates the benefit of the design. It is possible signage, striping, or some other means of education could improve this, but drivers do not typically leave crosswalks open, unless pedestrians are already seen in them or they are beyond marked stop lines. Another concern is human behavior. People take shortcuts; especially pedestrians.You can see this in many poorly designed public spaces. Worn "cow paths" can often be seen through a grassy area, because the sidewalk was in a location determined less convenient to the target destination. People will often go to greater lengths to circumvent a process or design,than would otherwise be required to just adhere to it. People (bikes and pedestrians) might cross where a ramp is normally located, and also at the new setback location. You would then have multiple points of conflict, upset expectations, and reduced awareness of all. This could possibly be improved with additional controls for crossing, but they do not exist in the design. Lastly, landscaping, fencing, utility poles, and traffic signs all exist and complicate a driver's ability to perceive pedestrians. That's compounded when looking for pedestrians that are further from a driver's area of focus and normal expectations. There may be some well-founded reasons why all of these concerns are less important than a more pressing design consideration,but it's not been made evident to the Transportation Commission or Planning staff. Thank you for considering bringing this to ADHD's attention. P Page 584
