The turns don't work with the island as shown. Can it be narrowed up? Or just do some kind of waterfall, entry
feature at the open area near the first building?

Our client would prefer the island to give the entrance the desired character. Can it work with the island as shown?
I do admit that island makes for some tight turns... If it cannot work with the island then it is what it is. Please let me
know and I will inform the client.

OK—Tyler,Joseph and I spoke. Only thoughts are:
• Have your engineer put a turning template on the entrance.The Island will have to be pushed back or
shortened so we can make the turn from Lake hazel side.
• Be sure the fire turn around is signed "No parking fire lane" per the IFC and installed per ACHD sign
standards.

I cannot make this meeting. Here are my comments.
Comments:
- There needs to be at least 30 feet from the gate to the edge of the pavement on Bloomerang.This allows the
engine to fully get off the main street without hanging into traffic.
- The gate needs to have a knox key switch on it for fire department access. (www.knoxbox.com)
- The center of the cul-d-sac cannot have anything in the middle of it.
- All roadways need to be signed:

TO: Joseph Dodson
REVIEWER: Joseph Bongiorno, Deputy Chief of Prevention 208-888-1234
SUBJECT: H-2022-036
PROJECT NAME: Lavendar Place
Fire Department Summary of Report:
Overview: This project can be serviced by the Meridian Fire Department.
1. Fire Response Time Travel time from nearest fire station(level of service expectation goal= 5 minutes)
This development currently falls outside the 5 minute travel time area as shown on the priority
growth map.It will be in the 5 minute area once fire station 7 is constructed and staffed in late
summer of 2023.It is currently nearest to Fire Station 4.This fire station is approximately 4.1 miles
from the project.

2. Resource reliability Current reliability of closest fire station(Reliability Goal is 80%or greater)
This development is closest to Fire Station#1. Current reliability is 77%from this station and does
not meet the targeted goal of 80% or greater.
MFD Station 31 512 411 8017o
MFD Station 32 643 549 8517o
MFD Station 33 801 645 81%

MFD Station 35 548 465 8517o
MFD Station 36 353 293 8397o
3. Risk Identification Risk Factor(1=residential, 2=residential with hazards, 3=commercial,
4=commercial with hazards, 5=industrial)
This proposed commercial development has a risk factor of 2,in which current resources would not
be adequate to supply service to this propose project.Risk factors include an open waterway on the
project site.Water rescue teams would have to be mutal aided from another department.Other
hazards may be found once the development is completed.
4. Accessibility Roadway Access,traffic,Radio Coverage
This project meets all required access,road widths and turnarounds as presented in the preliminary
plat.Any changes shall require fire department approval if any roadways or accesses are changed.
The shared drives shall have an address sign at each entrance and the roadways shall be maintained
365 days a year for fire,EMS and police responses.The ends of the common driveways and the fire
department turn around shall be signed"No Parking Fire Lane"per appendix D of the 2018 IFC and

5. Specialty/Resource needs
a. Aerial device needed for development(more than 30' in height)?
i. If yes, is one available within a 12 minute travel time goal
Page 2 of 6
This proposed project will require an aerial device. The closest truck company is 10 minutes travel
time(under ideal conditions)to the proposed development, and therefore the Fire Department can
meet this need in the required timeframe if a truck company is required. This fire station is
approximately 4.8 miles from the project
b. Other specialty needs (water rescue,hazmat, and technical rescue)?
i. If yes, is one available within a 5 minute travel time?
In the event of a hazmat event,there will need to be mutual aid required for the
development. In the event of a structure fire an additional truck company will be required. This
will require additional time delays as a second truck company is not available in the city.Water
rescue teams would have to be mutal aided from another department in the event of a water
rescue.
6. Water Supply(list expectations)
Water supply for this proposed development requires 1000 gallons per minute for one hour.
(Approximate—see appendix B of the 2018 International Fire Code) The fire flow requirements may
be less if the building is fully sprinklered.
