Northwest Pillow Products, Inc.
Chuck Nichol, owner, was present in answer to failure of meeting requirements of
Council Minutes, April 2, 1979. A letter of noncompliance, dated pctober 17, 1979
from Fire Marshall, Voss and Building Inspector, Schoen, was referred to as guideline.
1) Nichol stated that minor repairs have been made to the paint booth and
felt it made standard codes.
2) Dust Collection and vent from sander and saws do not comply. Plichol stated
he could not understand to what code and standards they do not comply to.
They have a dust collector made especially for their sander and explained
it had two air bags and was sold with the sander. They have ordered
another dust collector, but will not be shipped. until their cash payment,
which is almost paid for.
Nichol stated they have not been able to finance all recommended.
requirements.
3) Dry room does not meet codes and standards. Again Nichol stated they
did not understand just what requirements they did not meet. He stated
he had made the mistake of classifying the dry room. The product is
dried three minutes after spraying and is moved to a storeroom already
dried.
4&5) Exits. Nichol stated he had talked to Osha and they stated all they
need is two exits, both were large enough and has ordered Tighted
emergency exits. The loading dock on the east side of the building
and also the north side of the building have sliding doors.
Schoen stated that sliding doors are not an exit.
6) Nichol stated they thought they had 18 months. to comply for fire walls.
They do not have an office, but a lunchroom.
Playor Glaisyer read the violations found by the Fire Marshall and Building Inspector.
letter of October 17, 1979, 1 thru 9.

to meet these requirements, and they have not.

their clean up was very good.
2) Nichol stated that they used a chemical in the spray booth that
was made to peel off in sheets and nonflamable.

standards.

present a completion bond as required
Kirg~ord questioned the exit doors.
Nichol stated one had a padlock on it and the other a sliding bolt for
which he claimed Osha said was fine.
Schoen disagreed.
Welker stated Osha's codes vaere not adopted by the City.
Nichol stated the fire extinguishers were all charged. He felt the
only requirement they failed to comply with was the lighted exits,
but maintained. they had done their best to comply otherwise.
The Mayor quoted the extreme fire hazard and the endangering of lives
and property.
It was the feeling of the Council that the requirements set forth,
April 2, 1979 and violation letter directed to Northwest Pillow Products,
Inc. October 17, 1979, were explanatory and not met.
The Motion was made by Kingsford and seconded by Bodine that the Council take
Northwest Pillow Products, Inc. problem of requirements under advisement.

Bruce Johnson, Argus financial Corp. - San Jose, Califprnia.
Johnson addressed the Mayor and Council with a proposal for an industrial park
situated in the non-annexed Morgan Plant property.. The 28 acres has a north
Interstate boundary, Overland Rd. on the south, Linder Rd. on the west and
Mountain View Equipment on the east.
Johnson explained the company is a real estate developing and financing incorporation
for office buildings, shopping centers and light industrial projects. He stated
Santa Clara Plastics is interested in locating in Meridian at this location and
displayed design maps of buildings. The concept is well controlled, good conditions
with covenants, developer would retain site and architectural control of each of
the buildings, parking area, setbacks, good accessibility and will employ approxi-
mately 1500. They have an option to buy this property and this proposal would be a
condition upon annexation to the City, zoned light industrial and the need for water
and sewer services. They are also dealing with Williamson Trucking Co. for 33
acres as they have need for only 10 acres.
Gary Smith, City Engineer, stated that the sewer service has one final approved
crossino of the Interstate, east of Highway 69, another crossing may be needed
to make loop to provide necessary flow required primarily for fire protection.
The property slopes to the west so the northeast direction possibly could be
serviced without a lift station if the ground doesn't slope too radically.
Williams stated that there will have to be a well site in some point of time on
the east side of Kuna-Meridian Highway.
Ward and Stuart could see no problem with development.
The Mayor and Council expressed approval and encouragement of Mr. Johnson's proposal.

Dave Reeves - 711 W. Pine.
Reeves stated that the 4-Plex on the corner of 7th and W. Pine is an infringement
to his property. There are 4 units that the contractor was allowed to build
six feet from .his property line at the rear of the building; the renters in Reeves
house are made, as this 4-Plex looks into the kitchen, bedrooms, etc., no privacy
at all, the lawn is damaged, the builder refuses to put up a fence, they are
building a deck and stairway from the top of the two story 4-Plex and no matter
what type of fence, this stairway is looking right into their windows, the lot it
only 67 X 105, the wooden fence to the south is not on the property .line, but 15
feet back towards the 4-Plex. There is only six feet to the foundation on the
south and the east side from the property line.
Reeves stated that the outcome has caused considerable damage and felt that the
property would be best used for his business rather than a residence. It was
not feasible at this time, but he is considering the request for a Conditional Use.
Reeves stated that the Building Inspector should have a means of checking the
builders compliance of approved plans.
Cherry Lane Village West Preliminary Plat - Lampe Annexation.
Gene Wright, J-U-B Engineers, was present, representing Leavitt-NuPacific.
This property was annexed July 16, 1979 as Lampe Annexation. Wright stated
that Leavitt desires to exercise his option on this property, but requires
approval of the Preliminary Plat. This was denied by Planning and Zoning
November 13, 1979.
Wright stated that the City's goals are exactly the same as Mr. Leavitt's,
quality development and the second nine holes on the golfcourse. The second
nine holes cannot be built until there is a cash flow from the lots sold in
#3. He stated that they request the City to allow Mr. Leavitt to do what he
does best; to make a successful project out of Cherry Lane Village. If the
tentative is approved, Leavitt will exercise his option by December 31, 1979.
Wright stated there is currently a lift station that pumps up and down into
Cherry Lane Village #2. This would be abandoned and gravity flow of the west, and
move the lift station. There would not be anymore lift stations at least. Leavitt
has agreed to put a domestic well with this phase, school site is provided, two
laterals piped in cooperation with Nampa-Meridian Irrigation.
Gary Smith commented on length of blocks and streets; should comply with Fire
Department. Width of street right-of-way should be 60' for future planning.
Lift station is shown at the end of Puma Dr.
Wright stated that it will go back up to the existing pressure line and on over
to Cherry Lane #2. The flag lots were to avoid access onto lnc1ine Way where
there will be quite a bit of traffic coming off Cherry Lane. It is the intent
that the Protective Covenants be the same.
The school's master site plan shows a school site in this plan. A domestic well
would be put in with Cherry Lane #3.
Wright stated that they go with the 50 foot rightof-way and a 5 foot right-of-way
easement on each side, this allows setting homes a little closer to the street.
The setback is from the 50 foot, not the 60 foot right-of-way,
The Motion was made by Bodine and seconded by Kingsford that Cherry Lane Village
West Preliminary Plat #3 be denied.
Motion Carried: Bodine; yea, Kingsford, yea, Brewer, yea, Williams, nom.
Wright questioned reason for denial.
It was the feeling of Bodine that this was bringing the last piece in and putting
it forward.
Kingsford stated he basically supports Planning and Zoning's recommendation.
Bodine agreed.
Williams stated that there will be economic hardships resulting. from this denial
of Preliminary Plat. He felt the merits of the plat were not considered and this
was unreasonable.
