as written; Motion by Tolsma, second by Giesler: All Yea:
Item #1: Public Hearing: Square footage designation Meridian Park:
Mayor Kingsford is there a representive of Meridian Park present?
Ramon Yorgensen, developer for Meridian Park, our request is for the
designation of the square footage as per the City of Meridian Ordinance
for home sizes on this phase of our development. The plat was approved
prior to this at the time when the 1350 square footage was in effect.
Mayor Kingsford, any questions of Mr. Jorgensen, there were none. I will
now open the Public Hearing, anyone present who wishes to testify in
this matter?
Joe Simunich, Mr. Simunich was sworn by the City Attorney.
Simunich, I have one question here, it states in the notice that if
granted, may also mean changes in the property use and restrictions,
what does this entale?
Mayor Kingsford, all we are talking about is the square footage, the
designation by lot of the size home that can be built on that 1ot.
This would mean that the restriction of the 1350 square foot would
be changed. The use would still be residential.
Simunich, I have reviewed the plat and there is an irrigation ditch
on the East of the.property involved and there is no provisions for the
irrigation ditch that is there now.
City Engineer, I talked to Mr. Jorgensen Engineer and advised him that
they needed to get with the property owner and get this ditch thing
worked out. I told him that the ditch needed to be realigned and kept
open and he said he would.
Simunich, I think in these subdivisions some provision should be made
for the conveyance of the irrigation water.
Larry Kaufman, Mr. Kaufman was sworn by the City Attorney.
Kaufman, just a point of clarification, this notice that was sent out,
- this is going to be the minimuims~i'ze of homes that can be built on the

lots?
Mayor Kingsford, Yes, if adopted.
Kaufman, who checks that they are built to this size?
Mayor Kingsford, the Building Inspector.
Kaufman, my concern is that there are previously built some homes that
were not 1000 square foot, so a few of them slipped by. Mr. Kaufman was
advised that the Council had prior approved the reduction of 100 square
feet in the minimiums in the subdivision. Another concern is that there
is only one access into this subdivision. Is there any plans to have
another access to this subdiviision?
City Engineer, if the property to the East does develop the plan calls
for a bridge acrass Five Mile Creek for additional access or if the
property develops to the South there would be additional access.
Mayor Kingsford, anyone else from the public who wishes to comment?
There was no response, the Public Hearing was closed. Any comments from
the Council?
Tolsma, I can see Mr. Simunichs problem, I would like to see that worked
out first.
Mayor Kingsford, I think it could be approved conditionally on the problem
of the ditch being resolved.
The Motion was made by Tolsma and seconded by Giesler that the square
footage designation on the lots in Meridian Park #z, Phase II construction
be approved conditionally upon the irrigation problem being resolved.
Motion Carried: Al1 Yea:
Item #2: Public Hearing: Annexation & Zoning request by C& O Construction:
Mayor Kingsford is there someone present to represent this request?
Stan Olsen, upon approval of this request we wi11 submit for a Conditional
Use Permit and design review of the project, and I am here basically to
answer any questions the Mayor & Council might have.
Mayor Kingsford, any question of the Council of Mr. Olsen?
Tolsma, all we have before us tonite then, is just the conditional
Annex~~ti~n& Zoning? Mr. Tolsma was advised that was so, they would have
to come back later for the other items.
Mayor Kingsford, opened the Public Hearing, there was no one present who
wished to testify on the matter, the Public Hearing was closed.
The Motion was made by Myers and seconded by Tolsma to approve and adopt
the Finding of Fact and Conclusions of Law as prepared for the Planning
& Zoning Commission on the request for Annexation & Zoning by C& 0
Construction.

Diana Marcum, 55 East Ada, Account # 60266: Marcum asked for an expla-
nation of why the difference in water usage and why her sewer bill for

any valid reason why the bill has not been paid, their water shall be turned
