He presented a plat for Council review on the proposal. He had discussed the proposal with two of the Council members. They.own the property on all sides. It is a clean business which involves laminating formica in the building. There will be no trash accumulated inside or outside and no noxious vapors or anything of that nature. It will use little water or sewer. Egress and ingress will be through Franklin Road only. Stubblefield stated that they are going to landscape all they own along Franklin Road. The Motion was made by Joseph Glaisyer and seconded by Grant Kingsford to allow the Formica shop under a conditional use permit in Franklin Square. Motion passed: Kingsford, yea; Bodine, yea; Glaisyer, yea. Agenda 3 Meridian P1anor #2 Vacation Larry Sale was present representing the request for Smith/Bews. He stated that they are requesting vacation of Meridian Manor #2 and approval of Meridian Manor #3. He outlined a meeting he held with residents of Meridian Manor #1 and recommended to Smith/Bews they eliminate duplexes under consideration on lots located next to single family residence in #l, and the Subdivision across 8th Street. Smith/Bews agreed to eliminate almost 20% of the duplexes. Sale refferenced a map showing where duplex lots can be located. He argued for the duplex lots backing up to the Mobile Home Park. They may not build duplexes on all the proposed lots. All duplexes will be built by Smith/Bews, no lots will be sold for construction of a duplex dwelling. Rental property upkeep was outlined. Sale outlined the status of unkept property. Sale outlined the traffic problem for current residents. He explained the traffic system. Sale requested approval of the vacation and approval of #3. Streets were discussed. Williams called for comment from the public. Eric Gabrielson was present representing the property owners on the question of Vacation of Meridian Manor #2 and acceptance of #3. In a prepared statement he stated; "On Friday night, January 26, 1979, twenty-four residents of Meridian Manor #1 and Cherry Manor met to discuss Vacation of Meridian Manor #2 and approval of Meridian P4anor #3. All those people attending this meeting received a certified letter concerning this matter. The following points were agreed upon: Proposal: We will agree to Meridian Manor #2 providing the duplexes or multi- family dwellings are excluded. These dwellings have been proposed for Lots 9 & 10. Or: We will agree to Vacation of Meridian Manor #2 and approve Meridian Manor #3, provided that there are no duplexes or Multi-Family Units." "The reasons for opposing duplexes or Multi-family units in Meridian Manor #2 and Meridian Manor #3: 1) There is a possibility of lack of upkeep on duplexes or mutli-family dwellings by renters or owners of rental units. 2) There will be a possible detrimental effect on the value of property adjacent of duplexes or mutli-family units. 3) People owning homes in the subdivision should have a choice in what type of ~J Meridian Cit Hall .2. Januar 29, 1979 Agenda Meridian Manor #2 Vacation (Cont'd) Presented Proposed Statement by Eric Gabrielson 3 dwelling is adjacent to their property. The consensus of our group is that these should be single family dwellings instead of duplexes or mutli-family units. 4) Although you have decreased the number of lots in Meridian Manor #3. The total number of dwelling units has increased: Meridian Manor #2: 100 lots designated on the plat as single family dwellings. Meridian Manor #3: 92 lots - 18 duplex lots and 24 .single family lots which provided for 110 dwelling units (Footnote: this shows an increase of 10 dwelling units by the vacation of #2 and approval of #8) (Note: lots 9 and 10 are the only lots designated on the plat as duplex lots. The other lots designated as duplex lots were handwritten in)." "Questions concerning presentation of plats: 1) On the plats for Meridian Manor #2, lots 9 and 10 were not sepcified as duplex or multi-family lots. The only mention of the fact that these could possibly be duplex lots was in the covenants." "On the application for Subidivision approval for Meridian Manor #2, which was signed by Burt Smith, it is stated that the Subdivision would consist only of single-family dwellings." 2) The revised Tentative Plat, dated January, 1978, was presented to the Planning and Zoning Committee. This plat was to replace the plat for Meridian Manor #2. The only lots specified as duplex or multi-family were two lots at the East End of Cranmer Drive and the last lot on the Southeast corner of Willowbrook and lots 9 & 10 on N.W. 8th. No mention was made of any duplexes or multi-family units on Longford or Crestmont or any additional Duplexes or mutli-family units on Cranmer. 3) The only exit presently planned for Meridian Manor #3 is Crestmont Drive. Since Crestmont is only 50' wide, the impact of extra traffic from the new Subdivision would create a definite`hazzard to existing dwellings on this street. It would also create more traffic problems on Cherry Lane:' "Even though there are plans in the future for extending at least one exit in Meridian Manor #2 on through to Meridian Street, there was some concern voiced that people would be in the habit of using Crestmont and would not utilize the new street." "4) Upon reading the minutes from April 3, 1978 to the present, no mention was made of any additional duplex lots or multi-family lots except for January 15, 1979. At this time, concerned residents of Meridian Manor #1 and Cherry Manor specifically inquired about additional duplex or multi-family lots." "5) We are also concerned about the reasoning for developing Bedelco's property in such a piecemeal fashion. i.e. The property along N.W. 8th and the property North of Meridian Manor #2." "Concerns about Covenants: 1) We feel that there should be some additional covenant which would concern the maintenance of property within the Subdivision. i.e., setting a time .limit, within which a lawn would have to be planted and maintained." "Ending Points: 1) We feel that when a Plat is presented for approval, it should be specifically designated what is to be built on each lot. 2) We would like the City Council to be aware of the fact that we are concerned about the growth of our Subdivision We also realize that the developers are also concerned with keeping high standards on any expansion proposal. Therefore, we would like to work closely with them in developing a plan that would be satisfactory to all concerned." Sale congratulated the citizens on the presentation and research. He also stated that no duplexes will be placed adjacent to single family homes. They show multiplex along Meridian Road. Williams stated that they are speaking to the Plat for #2 as it currently stands. Sale stated that #2 was plated as a low middle cost housing area, the intent now is to increase the value of all the dwellings constructed in it. Sale agreed on the points for the covenants and would like input if there are suggestions. Glaisyer inquired how much other property was owned by the developers. Sale outlined the area. Glaisyer inquired what the developer's intentions were in the undeveloped areas. Sale stated that the .same general lot size as in #3.A1ong the East side large lots have been presented for possible commercial/office area. Kingsford inquired why the land along 8th Street was left out. Sale stated primarily to wait the decision of the City on the use of the Treatment Plant. n U idian City Hall .3. January 29, 1979 da Meridian Manor #2 Vacation (Cont'd) 3 Doug Hitt requested the compromise on duplex lots be repeated. Sale complied and outlined the lots. E. Gabrielson stated that he felt these points of opposition were still valid and they should specify what is going on each lot. Duplexes lined up in a row is poor planning in comparison to the development already existing. He stated that he felt the piecemeal approach could develop into more duplexes than houses. Cherry Lane was discussed and future proposals for fourlane traffic flow was discussed. E. Gabrielson stated that they are trying to get some points settled so they can determine future growth and development. As a resident of the area it is of concern to him and effects the health of their Subidivsion and the City in the future. Gene Kindred from Meridian Manor #1 inquired about access to the North. He wanted to know what access was planned and how police and fire protection would be effected because of emergencies without an entrance from the backside, N.W. 8th. Williams requested comment from Fire Chief Welker on access for fire emergencies. Welker stated that he was unfamiliar with the development but stated that if the one road was blacked there would be no access. Sale stated there is a secondary access to the property through the old sewer treatment plant site. Williams stated at the present time there is an open ditch cutting the property parallel to N.W. 8th Street. The area around the treatment plant was discussed. Welker stated that his trucks need an all weather street to support the vehicles. Kingsford stated that the issue at hand is whether to vacate or not vacate. Kindred inquired if the vacant lots along 8th Street. were to be Platted. Carole Gabrielson stated that she had the last plat presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission and N. W. 8th is platted, also the area above #2. This Plat designated all the lots on N. W. 8th as 18 more duplex lots. She pointed out that 36 duplexes is too many for that neighborhood. Kingsford inquired when the Plat was produced. It was January 1978. He stated that his plat of #2 shows N.W. 8th as unplatted. Williams stated that Planning and Zoning had eliminated some duplex lots. Sale stated that his understanding was that Planning and Zoning and the Council approved the Preliminary Plat as revised with the exception that lots along Meridian Road be held from judgement until the completion of the Comprehensive Plan. They submitted the old and new Preliminary, the old Plat of #2 and the new Plat of #3 all in one package. Glaisyer stated that the citizen group has had some good input and stated his position is to withhold judgement or vote it down. If the two groups feel they can work something out then it can be tabled, otherwise he supported the citizens group. Sale stated that there is not any way the developers can satisfy the demands of the residents. They have been in the process for a long time on numerous occasions. Developers are ready to move forward in the spring, interest rates are high. He requested they be approved, the Council set a compromise but decide the issue tonight. The Motion was made by Joseph Glaisyer and seconded by Grant Kingsford that the request for vacation of Meridian Manor #2 be denied. E. Gabrielson requested clarification on what was allowable on lots 9 and 10, duplex or single family. Williams stated that he felt either/or was approved. He stated that he lived in #1 and was in sympathy with the citizens group - he is affected too. He commended the citizens presentation. He suggested a compromise and offered that Smith and Bews do build a quality Subdivision-in everyonES opionion, that is not a point of contention. Meridian City Hall Janua Agenda Meridian Manor #2 Vacation (Cont'd) (Richard Williams) 3 Perhaps lots 8, 9 and 10 on Crestmont single family and the remaining lots multi-family. The point being you are not going to get an expensive home built there. The duplexes they have are good and perhaps expanding on the landscaping portion of the restrictions and covenants may be appropriate. Sale stated that he felt that it could be worked out. Williams expanded on an unkept house. Sale stated that he did not see the reason for the Motion. Mr. Glaisyer has been a champion of larger dwellings in Meridian and questioned what good the denial to vacate would do. Glaisyer stated that he wears two hats - he has respect for developers but also a lot of respect for the residents of the community. The developers are in and out, these people live here. They are a viable force in the community - they presented facts and he stands with them. Sale concurred but felt a denial to vacate doesn't support their view. The point was discussed. E. Gabrielson stated that when he purchased the house which is adjacent to lots 9 and 10, he asked the developers, builders and realtors whether the lots vacant at the time would be single family, duplex or whatever. He stated that he was assured they would be single family. He requested a conclusion from the Council. Kindred questioned the conclusion that lots backing up to a Mobile Home Park were undesirable. Williams stated that if the Council does not deny the request the developer still has an alternative of going with #2 as Platted, but stated that he would like to see a compromise worked out. Bodine felt it would be a better Subdivision if a compromise could be worked out. Glaisyer explained the alternatives. Williams stated that he would like to see compromise. Sale inquired if Williams would help in the process. Rick Potter stated that the situation of a go-between for Smith and Bews and felt the citizens were concerned enough to show up, the Council is concerned and cares about this. He felt the builders should be concerned enough to get their bottoms down here and not have a go-between. Williams stated a meeting would include all parties concerned, including the builders. Kingsford withdrew his second. Glaisyer withdrew his main Motion. Joseph Glaisyer made the Motion that the request that Meridian Manor #2 be Vacated be tabled until the February 20th meeting, seconded by Marvin Bodine. Motion passed: Bodine, yea; Kingsford, yea; Glaisyer, yea. Agenda Bethaven Subdivision, Preliminary Plat. 4 Lee Stucker was present representing the request. He stated 1) the covenants have been submitted 2) Concern on street exits. At this time they are only on Phase #1. There are five duplex lots stated on the Plat. He outlined the streets and exits. There is only one exit to the West and owners of adjoining property were not receptive to developing a through street. They (Bethaven): have no objections to putting a street through. Williams questioned the length of the westerly block. Stucker stated 1,300 to 1,400 feet. This would come in with the last phase of the development. Meridian Cit (Agenda Bethaven Subdivision, Preliminary Plat (Cont'd) 4 Williams clarified that the request was for Phase I. Januarv 29 Glaisyer inquired if the City Engineer has approved the Plat. Gary Smith stated that because of the transition he has not seen the Plat yet. Kingsford thought Ellsworth had some minor problems. The situation was discussed. they Kingsford addressed the covenants on the architectural committee. He requested ;! review all outbuildings and spelled out to cover outbuildings in Part 4 and 5. Page 3, Part 9 felt the paragraph should be stuck. Glaisyer did not feel Page 3, Part 9 should be struck The Motion was made by Joseph Glaisyer and seconded by Margin Bodine to approve the Pi°eliminary Plat of Bethaven Subdivision #1 subject to approval of City Engineering. Motion passed: Bodine, yea; Glaisyer, yea; Bodine, yea. Agenda 5 Meridian Race Track Del Gould and Ray Holaday were present representing the racers. Williams inquired if everyone had seen the letters from the State and Fire Chief. Williams read the letter from the Fire Chief. Williams stated that the City has received a letter of response from the Meridian Race Track promoters. Williams read the letter. Glaisyer inquired if the promoters can meet the Fire Chief's conditions. Del Gould stated that if the concession's function is closed they will lose their profit. Other alternatives for the concession was discussed. Williams pointed out it would have to meet health codes and suggested portable units Gould inquired if it would be acceptable to remove the bleachers over the concession. The possibility was discussed. Welker statedthat he did not think that would suffice. Exits were discussed. Williams inquired if,excluding the concessions, the promoters letter takes care of all other major defects. Welker stated two (2) fire guards are needed in the Dairy Show Barn because of the materials combustible nature. He explained the need for two persons on the fire patrol. Bodine inquired if the Grange building could be used for the concession. The possibilities were discussed. The Motion was made by Grant Kingsford and seconded by Joseph Glaisyer to accept the racing for one more season if the promoters can meet the Fire Chief's approval. Williams clarified the Motion as accepting the Speedway's three proposals plus personnel to control the barn and carry approved fire fighting equipment and•the concessions be removed from under the grandstands and the City receive. copies of the Insurance policies. He stated the the City wants to be assured they have insurance and they are required to notify the City if they are canceled. Glaisyer requested legal Council to state if these actions satisfy City responsibilities. Crookston stated yes if they meet the requirements set forth in the recommendation set out by the state and City Fire Chief. Motion passed: Glaisyer, yea; Bodine, yea; Kingsford, yea. Meridian City Hall January 29, 1979 Agenda Crestwood Estates, Lynwood Circle Final Plat. 6 R.B. Glenn and John Mansinger were present representing the request. Williams stated that it was approved before Planning and Zoning January 9, 1979. He inquired if the City had received covenants on the development. Glenn stated that they are on file with the City and are the same as Center Valley covenants. Williams stated that the Council's concern with Platting piecemeal. Mansinger stated that they are planning to bring before Planning and Zoning a Preliminary Plat of the rest of the area. Glaisyer stated that a concept plan was submitted and not approved by the Council. The Motion was made by Grant Kingsford and seconded by Marvin Bodine that the Final Plat on Lynwood Circle, Crestwood Estates be approved. Motion passed: Kingsford, yea; Bodine, yea; Glaisyer, abstained Agenda 7 Thomas Annexation #2 Mike P1ilholin was present representing the request. He stated the background of the Thomas property. Negotiations are underway to relocate the L.D.S. Center to the East. Their proposal will be coming up before Planning and Zoning on February 12, 1979. What they are asking for is consideration by directing the City Clerk to advertise for Public Hearing before the Council so the request can be reviewed in March. Time is important. Kingsford requested clarification on what would take place. It was clarified. Zoning was discussed and the L.D.S. Conditional Use Permit. Milhollin pointed out the Conditional Use Permit would be transferred from one parcel to the traded parcel. He stated that the Church property might be better used as Commercial property. He stated that because of time constraints, if the Council .would not hear the request in March, the proposal could not be worked out. Kingsford felt that he would like to see what is proposed for there. Glaisyer stated that he did not see how the Council could put one person in front of another. If annexations are stopped, they are stopped for everyone. Milhollin stated that he was under the impressions the City felt the L.D.S. proposal should be somewhere else. Glaisyer stated 100 feet is not going to make that much difference. Other people have business plans also. Milhollin inquired if publications could be made. Crookston clarified the City has not published any Public Hearing notices before the City Council on annexations.

EVANS ' Governor S BOB KINGMORN Director JAN 2 `' 1979 January 18, 1979 The Honorable Don Storey Mayor of 6eridian City Hall 728 Meridian Meridian, Idaho 83642 Dear Pdayor Storey In response to Chief Welker's January 3, 1979, letter and your verbal request for assistance in evaluating conditions of the Meridian Speedway, I assigned Mr. Jack Stroud, Admi- nistrator of the Building Inspection Division, to take the necessary action to make appraisals to you based on new con- struction requirements of the 1976 Uniform Building Code. and the 1976 Life Safety Code. The following has been reported to me by Mr. Stroud: ~ ! On January 16, 1979, Mr. Joe Holmes, Class 'A' Build- ing Inspector and Plan Checker for the DBpartment of Labor and Industrial Services and I met with Mayor Storey, Fire Chief Welker, and Fire Marshal Voss. I reiterated that we were there only at their request and asked if the owners of the Speedway were aware and approved of our being there. We were informed that they did approve and everyone understood that we were there in an advisory position only. Mr. Holmes, Chief Welker, Fire Marshal Voss, and I pro- ceeded to the Speedway and were met there by Mr. Ray Holaday, one of the Speedway promoters. Mr. Holaday provided access to all buildings. Although. Chief Welker and Fire Marshal Voss accompanied Mr. Holmes and myself, at no time did they relate to us what they had found to be in violation but only responded to direct questions relating to the his- tory of construction. OBSERVATION: (Note: All dimensions relative to length bf bleachers were stepped off and must be considered inaccurate.) The Speedway has three (3) bleacher sections, two (2) west bleachers and a north bleacher. The two (2) larger bleachers presently have facilities directly underneath each one. EQUAL OPPORTUNITYEMPLOYER • The~norable Don Storey Jan y 18, 1979 Page 2 The main west bleacher is approximately 370 feet long consisting of 18 rows of bench seating with four (4) concession rooms and two (2) maintenance storage areas beneath the stands. The equipment contained inside the concession areas consists of commercial type popcorn machines (2), cotton candy machines (2), commercial ice machines (4), large microwave ovens (3) and an air conditioner. The storage areas mostly contained combustibles, mainly paper products. Entrance to the concessions is gained from each end and from two (2) bleacher accesses, each located approximately 1/3 of the way from each end. BASED ON SECTION 3301 (F), UNIFORM BUILDING CODE, THE ESTIMATED OCCUPANT LOAD WOULD BE 4,200 (350' of bench X 18 rows X 12" _ 18" per occupant). All egress from the bleachers is to the front and then to either end. The small west bleacher consists of 12 rows of bench seating approximately 75' long. There are two (2) access stairs 1/3 of the way from each end. Egress is to the front then out each end. BASED ON SECTION 3301 (F), UNIFORM BUILDING CODE, THE ESTIMATED OCCUPANT LOAD WOULD BE 552 (69' of bench X 12 rows X 12" - 18" per occupant). The north bleacher consists of 18 rows of bench seating, approximately 300' long. There are five (5) access stairs spaced throughout and stairs off each end to ground level. The entire bleacher is over the dairy barn. BASED ON SECTION 3301 (F), UNIFORM BUILDING CODE, THE ESTIMATED OCCUPANT LOAD WOULD BE 3420 (285' of bench X 18 rows = 18" per occupant). CODE VIOLATIONS: The usable spaces below the main west bleacher and the north bleacher constitute mixed occu- pancies and are not separated by 1 hour con- struction as required by Table 5-B and Section 503(a) UBC. Bleachers are defined as an A-4 occupancy. Concession areas, storage areas and dairy barn are defined as a B-2 occupancy. 2. Four (4) exits must be provided where a grand- stand accommodates more than 3000 persons. 3321(f) 2. G.

Three (3) exits must be provided where a grand- stand accommodates more than 1000 persons. 3321(f) 2. F. UBC. The north bleacher seats over 1000 persons. 4. All required bleacher exits must empty into a public way or safe dispersal area. 3321, 3302(c) UBC. The west bleachers have a total of three (3) gates to the public way,of which two (2) are kept locked. A minimum of five (5) ex its .are required. The north bleachers have a total of two (2) gates, one (1) shared by west bleachers. Three (3) exits are required. CONCLUSIONS: There are two (2) major areas of con- cern, that of fire and that of safe evacuation in the event of a disaster. New construction does not permit bleachers of this capacity to be constructed of combustible materials, but as this is an existing structure, a means to balance the inequities is needed. All possible fire potentials need to be removed and an increased means of exiting provided. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Remove all concession and storage rooms from the main west bleacher, making a clear area that can readily be policed of fire hazards. This area should also be fenced off from the public area. 2. There is no economical way to provide sprinklers or 1 hour separation .f or the dairy barn. In lieu of this, utilization of a fire watch equipped with suitable portable fire fighting equipment would provide adequate assurance against a fire outbreak ~ in the barn. 3. At the south end of the small west bleacher, install a .gate/door a minimum of 42" wide, preferably 6 feet. 4. In the west wall between the small and the large west bleachers install a minimum of 10 feet of exit. ^^ The orable Don Storey Janu~ 18, 1979 Page 4 5. Install two (2) 6' wide exits in the west wall of the main west bleacher approximate- ly 1/3 of the way from each end. These could be incorporated adjacent to where the exist- ing bleacher concession access openings are located. The bleacher access width must not be less than 6`. 6. The north bleacher requires a third means of egress, which would have to either go over or through the existing dairy barn. Protective requirements would be extremely costly. The center third of the bleachers could be prohi- bited from occupancy and therefore eliminate the need for the third exit, or with consider- ation given to the fire watch being maintained during bleacher occupancy, it is felt that by doubling the width of the two (2) existing exit stairs and providing a minimum of a 10' opening to a safe dispersal area on the east end that the dangers would be minimized. It is recognized that the addition of these outside exits will present a problem of ticket control. It must be understood that all required exits must be maintained open (preferably locked open) during bleacher occupancy. This will no doubt require ad- ditional manning at each exit. The only alternative would be to provide a safe dispersal areaifrom these exits by fencing off from the public way an area where no person within the area need be any closer than 50 feet to the structure. In conclusion, we have merely address the major problems and have not gone into minor infractions, such as guard rails, etc, iNe have tried to address the facility on a basis of what could be done to alleviate the most serious conditions and thus possibly provide additional service to the public without endangering lives. Mayor Storey, I hope that this will provide you with the nec- essary information which will assist the City of Meridian in making its decision. If I may be of any further assistance, do not hesitate to call on me. Sincerely, ob ~I~Srn Directo~F~ BK/JCS/mlt cc: Fire Chief Welker
