Voigt Development, Applicant. This is for the preliminary plat for Resolution Business Park. Apparently, the new school is within part of Resolution Sub. The PP Findings were approved last year. The problem is this, within the Findings in the Decision and Order for the Central District Health Recommendations at 2.30 it reads as follows; 2.30 Stormwater shall be pretreated through a grassy swale prior to discharge to the subsurface to prevent impact to groundwater and surface water quality. Mr. Carnahan has spoken with Brad and Gary in the Public Works Department, and they have no problem with removing this requirement, as they say it is a Recommendation and not a requirement. This one section, if they have to follow it, is causing a site design problem. The school is to open up next summer 2002. They want to submit their plans to the Public Works by February 23rd to keep everything on track, but this section needs to be addressed quickly. Since they are conditions of approval do they have to follow this secti on, or can the Findings be amended to delete this section on the school? The C/C would have to approve wouldn't they to delete this section, so it would have to come back before the C/C. Don Carnahan's number is 288-1992, and he should be back from lunch sometime after 1:00, if you want to call him. Otherwise, if you give me some answer for him, I will call to delete this matter off your back. P.S., I have pulled the file and it is in your chair. 1 • r.

Nichols Meridian City Attorney White Peterson, P.A. 5700 East Franklin Road, Suite 200 Nampa, ID 83686 Re: Mountain View High School Clarification of Preliminary Plat Approval (PP -00-006) Dear Mr. Nichols: I am requesting clarification regarding item 2.30 of the referenced subject. This item states that storm water shall be pretreated through a grassy swale prior to discharge to the subsurface to prevent impact to groundwater and surface water quality. In conversations and meetings with Meridian City Engineer Brad Watson it is my understanding that item 2.30 was intended to be a recommendation not a requirement of preliminary plat approval. It is my understanding the City of Meridian does not have an ordinance, policy or requirement for storm water to be pretreated though a grassy swale prior todischarge to the subsurface to prevent impact to groundwater and surface water quality. If you have any questions regarding Public Works point of view please contact Brad Watson. We have looked at using grassy swales as part of the site storm water facilities using Idaho Division of Environment Quality Catalog of Storm Water Best Management Practice number 38, vegetate swale (biofiltration) and number 48, dry extended detention pond. The preliminary design for the grassy swale concept requires additional acreage and physical site improvement impracticalities than the design utilizing the infiltration beds. We respectfully request the intent of item 2.30 be clarified and feel that it should be modified from a requirement to a recommendation as originally intended. This matter is of utmost importance as school is scheduled to opeli in August of 2002 with site drainage A Company of Professional Engineers and Scientists 10005=01.043 Ph: (208) 288-1992 • Fax: (208) 288-1999 . - Mr. William F.

Carlton, Suite 201 Meridian, Idaho 83642 Reference: Mountain View High School Project After a review of the proposed plans for the Mountain View High School project with paid llnoghk rk of Hummel Architects and discussion ol'the new City of Meridien landscaping ordinance requirements, which would impact the project, I would recommend the City of Meridian and the City Planting & Zoning department consider an alternative compliance allowing for a chain-link style fence in lieu of the opaque twenty (ZO) feet wide vision block requirement. The reason for the recommendation is based on relative safety and crime prevention ¢dors involving potential line of sight in and out of the high school complex, especially firom the irrigation easementlaccess. This is bemuse the required opaque vision block would further invite the potential for small crimes (vandalism, graffiti, tobacco and drug Use, cu.) by teenagers attending the highschool and other juveniles or young adults in contact with students at the school. This potential exits because an opaque will (vision block), as required, would effectively create an open public arca without a significant sense of ownership or control within the easement boundaries. Traditionally, these types of open public areas have been associated with small crime activity because the nature of the vision block provides a space not open to view. This results in a distinct lack of a guardian presence, which has been found to be an integral element in passive crime prevention within the environmcntal design of large complexes such as the high school. I'he sight access that a chain-link style fence would provide would allow fir the direct and passive viewing of such an open public arca. Additionally, an access with an open view along the irrigation easement would also allow for bettor perimeter view Rod tactical control in the advent of a critical incident willim the aIchoul complex. This has become e a point of concern given the recent violent incidents involving schools in the past few yeam I have discussed my recommendation with Chief Gordon, and he is in agreement with my recommendation for the alternative compliance for the Mountain View High School Project.

Bannock Street, Suite 700 Boise, ID 83702 Dear Paul, ACHD has reviewed the site plan for the proposed Meridian High Sool located off Overland and Locust Grove Roads. I understand that you are applying to conform with all ACHDIng policies pelabng toliance need confirmation from ACHD. The site plan appear access to the site. ACHD does not have any concern with the City of Meridian issuing a CZC at this time, as long as the City is aware that ACHD will again review these plans prior to issuance of a building permit. We would also like the City to take a look at the concerns we have stated in the remainder of the letter. You must submit a completed set of civil site plans to ACHD before you submit for a building permit at the City of Meridian. I do have some concerns with the proposed site access to Blue Tick Street. I understand that the immediate lot that takes access to Blue Tick Street is for faculty, however, there is nothing in place that will restrict students from utilizing an easy way in from Locust Grove Road while avoiding the traffic jam at the main entrance on Overland Road. I also think that as the neighbors learn of this site plan they will have a lot of input regarding such an access. ACHD staff would offer a few suggestions to deal with this problem: 1. Make this a gate restricted entry and exit that can only be utilized n faculty using f entry electronic card or key pad to activate the gate both coming and going. This type of would also prohibit students from using this lot for after school extra -curricular activities (i.e. tennis, volleyball and soccer) with facilities right near the lot. This type of restriction would prohibit inexperienced drivers from traveling through a residential area before and after school hours. 2. Seeing the need for emergency access through the entire site, I understand that this lot could not be a "stand alone" lot with no other form of vehicular access. Bollards could be installed to isolate this faculty lot from the rest of the site. This would not prevent after school use of the lot, but would force all students to use the main entrance during school hours. The lot would be utilized after hours for extra -curricular activities. 3. Do not utilize Blue Tick Street for a vehicular access at all. I would also like to point out a possible problem on Brandys Jewel Avenue. You have provided a pedestrian connection at this point, which is great, but other than the faculty parking lot, there is no immediate parking for the tennis courts and soccer field. At the Columbia Village sports fields, spectators will avoid having to walk from a parking lot by parking on the closest street to the playing field. This results in unhappy neighbors! I anticipate that would happen here as well. It is probably inevitable that ACHD will have to sign this street for "NO PARKING" when the neighbors are unable to get into their own driveways during practice and event times. The school district should probably install a sign at the pedestrian gate stating that parking for school events is prohibited on Brandys Jewel Avenue and the vehicles will be towed. Again, your site plan conforms with all ACHD policies. We just bring up these issues for matters of safety and neighborhood concern. Please submit your civil site plans as soon as possible when they are ready, to prevent delay in receiving a building permit. If you have any further questions, please feel free to give me a call.

Bannock Street, Suite 700 Boise, ID 83702 Dear Paul, ACHD has reviewed the site plan for the proposed Meridian High School located off Overland and Locust Grove Roads. I understand that you are applying for a Certificate of Zoning Compliance and need confirmation from ACHD. The site plan appears to conform with all ACHD policies relating to access to the site. ACHD does not have any concern with the City of Meridian issuing a CZC at this time, as long as the City is aware that ACHD will again review these plans prior to issuance of a building permit. We would also like the City to take a look at the concerns we have stated in the remainder of the letter. You must submit a completed set of civil site plans to ACHD before you submit for a building permit at the City of Meridian. I do have some concerns with the proposed site access to Blue Tick Street. I understand that the immediate lot that takes access to Blue Tick Street is for faculty, however, there is nothing in place that will restrict students from utilizing an easy way in from Locust Grove Road while avoiding the traffic jam at the main entrance on Overland Road. I also think that as the neighbors learn of this site plan they will have a lot of input regarding such an access. ACHD staff would offer a few suggestions to deal with this problem: 1. Make this a gate restricted entry and exit that can only be utilized by faculty using an electronic card or key pad to activate the gate both coming and going. This type of entry would also prohibit students from using this lot for after school extra -curricular activities (i.e. tennis, volleyball and soccer) with facilities right near the lot. This type of restriction would prohibit inexperienced drivers from traveling through a residential area before and after school hours. 2. Seeing the need for emergency access through the entire site, I understand that this lot could not be a "stand alone" lot with no other form of vehicular access. Bollards could be installed to isolate this faculty lot from the rest of the site. This would not prevent after school use of 7 .JAM 29, 2001 TEL NO: ( 200 ) :307- - 391 *1474-0) PAGE.' _,, 3 the lot, but would force all students to use the main entrance during school hours. The lot would be utilized after hours for extra -curricular activities. 3. Do not utilize Blue Tick Street for a vehicular access at all. I would also like to point out a possible problem on Brandys Jewel Avenue. You have provided a pedestrian connection at this point, which is great, but other than the faculty parking lot, there is no immediate parking for the tennis courts and soccer field. At the Columbia Village sports fields, spectators will avoid having to walk from a parking lot by parking on the closest street to the playing field. This results in unhappy neighbors! I anticipate that would happen here as well. It is probably inevitable that ACHD will have to sign this street for "NO PARKING" when the neighbors are unable to get into their own driveways during practice and event times. The school district should probably install a sign at the pedestrian gate stating that parking for school events is prohibited on Brandys Jewel Avenue and the vehicles will be towed. Again, your site plan conforms with all ACHD policies. We just bring up these issues for matters of safety and neighborhood concern. Please submit your civil site plans as soon as possible when they are ready, to prevent delay in receiving a building permit. If you have any further questions, please feel free to give me a call.

Please accept this letter in lieu of such, for the new Mountain View High School. As you are aware, our office applied for and was granted two Variances (VAR 01-001 and VAR 01-002) from the City of Meridian, relative to this project. One of these was for the height of the building, and another was relative to the ordinance regarding landscape islands within the interior of the parking lots. Playing field illumination masts, height = 80 feet, were also discussed at the Public Hearing. The documents attached herein reflect the findings of those Variance Public Hearings. I appreciate all of the time and patience that you and the City staff have given us in helping us understand and prepare for the requirements and procedures for the approval process. Please let our office know immediately if you are in need of any further documentation or clarification. Our intention is to submit for a building permit for the first phase of the project, on March 15, 2001. We understand that we will be in need of the Certificate of Zoning Compliance in order to make that submii aLThank you very much.

A. Accessory Uses 1. Site illumination masts (typical height 50') must be reduced to 35 feet per 11-13-4.C. Lighting shall not cause glare or impact the traveling public or neighboring development. Lighting adjacent to residential uses may require shrouds to reduce light on adjacent properties. 2. Field illumination masts (typical height 80') must be addressed at a public hearing due to their impact on adjacent properties. We will address this issue as part of the upcoming height variance submitted for the February 6, 2001 hearing with City Council. 3. Goalposts are approved without a Variance from height limitations per Ordinance 11-9-2. 4. Flagpoles are approved without a Variance from height limitations per Ordinance 11-9-2. B. Parking Requirements Staff concurs with the submitted parking calculations. 1070 spaces shall be the minimum number of required parking spaces (810 + 260). The architect is responsible for determining compliance with federal handicap -accessibility requirements; however, staff agrees that the submitted calculations appear to meet such requirements. C. Alternative Compliance 1.

Carlton, Suite 201 Meridian, ID 83642 Attn: Steve Siddoway, Planner January 11, 2001 Dear Steve, Per our previous discussions, here is a list of items concerning zoning compliance and alternate compliance issues relative to Mountain View High School. The purpose of this communication is to identify and describe those items which will be considered "accessory uses", to determine the amount of parking required for the project per Zoning Ordinance, to address those items which meet zoning compliance through "alternate compliance" provisions of the Ordinance and to address zoning compliance in general. Due to the limited timeline available for this project, it is our intention to obtain Planning Department approval on these items to be certain of an accurate interpretation of the Ordinance and to avoid any unforeseen delays to the permitting process. A) Accessory uses 1) site illumination — see attached drawings ACC -1, ACC -2 2) field illumination— see attached drawings ACC -3, ACC -4 3) goalposts — see attached drawing ACC -4 4) flagpoles — see attached drawing ACC -4, ACC -5 B) Parking requirement — see attached Exhibit A C) Alternate Compliance 1) landscape buffer requirement — see attached drawing A.C.4 2) fencing and parking lot `D' at irrigation ditch easement —see attached drawings A.C.-1, A.C.-2, A.C.-3 D) Site fencing — see attached drawing A.C.-1 In the interest of putting our concerns at rest that we have addressed all the principal issues that could delay the permitting process, I would like to make a request that the Planning Department issue a written statement of acceptance of the interpretations represented in these documents. There are a couple of other things I would like to discuss. First, can we get a written confirmation that we are on the schedule for the February 6, 2001 hearing date, including the time and location? Also, my intention is to post the property on Monday, January 29, which is one week and one day before the hearing. Then I will get the notarized form that the property Charles F. Hummel, F.A.I.A. C.

Carlton, Suite 201 Meridian, Idaho 83642 Reference: Mountain View High School Project PHONE: (208) 888-6678 FAX: (208) 884-5077 January 9, 2001 After a review of the proposed plans for the Mountain View High School project with Paul Hooghkirk of Hummel Architects and discussion of the new City of Meridian landscaping ordinance requirements, which would impact the project, I would recommend the City of Meridian and the City Planning & Zoning department consider an alternative compliance allowing for a chain-link style fence in lieu of the opaque twenty (20) feet wide vision block requirement. The reason for the recommendation is based on relative safety and crime prevention factors involving potential line of sight in and out of the high school complex, especially from the irrigation easement/access. This is because the required opaque vision block would further invite the potential for small crimes (vandalism, graffiti, tobacco and drug use, etc.) by teenagers attending the high school and other juveniles or young adults in contact with students at the school. This potential exists because an opaque wall (vision block), as required, would effectively create an open public area without a significant sense of ownership or control within the easement boundaries. Traditionally, these types of open public areas have been associated with small crime activity because the nature of the vision block provides a space not open to view. This results in a distinct lack of a guardian presence, which has been found to be an integral element in passive crime prevention within the environmental design of large complexes such as the high school. The sight access that a chain-link style fence would provide would allow for the direct and passive viewing of such an open public area. Additionally, an access with an open view along the irrigation easement would also allow for better perimeter view and tactical control in the advent of a critical incident within the school complex. This has become a point of concern given the recent violent incidents involving schools in the past few years. I have discussed my recommendation with Chief Gordon, and he is in agreement with my recommendation for the alternative compliance for the Mountain View High School project. Sincerely, Capt. Wm.
