3 JOHN SWING AND MARK GRINDSTAFF - 6 PLEX PROPOSAL - PJE Corner of W. 2nd & W. Idaho
John Ewing spoke representing the 6 plex proposal. Maps, diagrams and site design
pictures were put on display.
Ewing explained the neighboring home and a volunteer poll of the neighborhood
concerning their feeling for this project.
Ewing: "We have met all the setbacks and parking requirements and everything we
need to do to meet the City Codes. We have tried to make this a very presentable
project using stucco, wood and stone and a lot of landscaping which will enhance
the neighborhood." "Concerning the density problem, Mark has worked on that"
Grindstaff: "We think the density isn't tcogreat for the area, providing parking
space, a large amount of landscaping There is a possibility that the Ada County
Highway District may abandon a portion of West Idaho Street due to the fact that
they only need a 60 foot right-of-way instead of an 80 foot right-of-way that is
set forth now."
981
Ewing: "It is quite important that with the money situation now that we go to a
six plex to get the return on our money. As to our comments from the Meridian Fire
Department, we have talked with the Fire Chief Roger Welker and we feel that we can
solve all the problems with him - so I don't think we have any problem with them
at all."
Mayor: "Questions from the Council?"
Brewer: "I think these people have done a remarkable job putting this project
together"

Agenda 3 (Cont'd) Ewing & Grindstaff 6-Plex.....
u
3. Seotember 21
Kingsford: "Our ordinance that is in effect supports the Comprehensive Plan. I
live close to a barn that looks considerably worse than this - an 8-Plex. How
did it manage to get built in a residential area? How come they can't built a
much better one like this and our ordinance is not yet completed? Basically aren't
thPv working under the same ordinance?"
Schoen: "That's right, you have no ordinance. You do not have an ordinance that
states density."
Kingsford: "The 8-Plex wasn't approved by the Council and was built under the same
Ordinance. What prevents John from just getting a building permit?"
Schoen: "Going back a year or two, we started to establish the plan we have, not
being adopted, then I started turning anything over duplexes to the Council - their
decision rather than just mine. As far as the Ordinances you have now, I could
issue a permit tomorrow."
Brewer: "I've studied this pretty indepth - went all through the Planning &
Zoning minutes and I have to agree with both sides. I have a very strong feeling
for this gentlemen and I think in these times we do have to look at the time we're
living in. I would like to see us consider granting a variance to the density
and make it very clear in the minutes as to why it's done, it's not necessarily
going to continue, but I think we should bend. I haven't seen anything like this
for many, many months come before this Council. I admire these people's stamina
for even setting down at the drawing board when times are like they are."
Roger Welker, Fire Chief: "I have discussed the fences with John but I see
Planning & Zoning want to keep the fences. I don't want them. That is a 16 foot
alley and there wouldn't be room to fight fire. I have discussed this with John
and there is no problem in taking the fence out. On the East side I want a
cement deal instead of shrubbery for more area and more access in. They could
see no problems with that."
Brewer: "I have one more suggestion upon looking over your plans. For your fire
safety, I wonder if your roof line over your storage areas couldn't be extended
over the patio areas, over the double doors, that would put a roof immediately
under the upstairs bedroom where if a person come out that window could get onto
the roof and drop to the ground."
Ewing: "There's no problem with that. The reason the fence was put there was for
privacy reasons for everyone. I will mention that the building is over a two-hour
fire wall between the units and their designed just as if they were Condominiums,
as such, so we feel we have a real fire safe building with the stone and stucco.
As far as extending that storage, we have no problems doing that at all. We're
open to suggestions to make the building better and we don't want the fire danger
there either."
Kingsford: "I agree on the density - we shouldn't set a precedent
the same token on the width of that street and actually you should figure in
from the center line when you are making a Subdivision, and also the alley -
probably that density would come down very close to 15 dwelling units per acre,
and the fact that our ordinances are not in place I would be willing to support it
with the amenities that we have outlined. I would like to see the bond.
Hopefully the new ordinances will be completed soon and this will not set a
precedent."
The Piotion was made by Brewer and seconded by Kingsford that the John Ewing and
Mark Grindstaff Six-flex (6-Plex) be approved and to be located at the NW corner
of West 2nd Street and West Idaho, with a variance from the density requirement.
of the Comprehensive Plan; that they abide with the recommendations of the
Fire Chief; that not in any way does this variance from the density requirements
means there will be an onslaught of:variances; and due to the closeness of the
downtown area and for economic reasons this proposal be granted a variance from
density; and that a Bond be provided to the City for landscaping and construction
is completed as presented.
Motion Carried: Kingsford, yea; Brewer, yea
Williams, nay
hteridian Citv Hall :2.
(Agenda 3 (Cont'd) Ewing & Grindstaff 6-Plex.......
Kingsford: "How many dwelling units per acre are we talking about?"
There was discussion and figuring concerning density.
Grindstaff: "Right now we are 1891.8 sq. feet per acre, or approximately 2000
sq. feet - that would be 24. units, roughly."
Bldg. Inspector Schoen: "This meets all building codes and ordinances"
Wastewater Treatment Supt Earl Ward: "What is the question concerning the road
right-of-way?"
Grindstaff: "Right now Idaho Street is an 80 foot right-of-way as shown in the
plat. When we contacted the Ada County Highway District on where they want the
new sidewalks, they seemed to feel that this was a 60 foot right-of-way to contend
with - so this would mean another 10 feet that could be abandoned."
Ward: "One of the surface wells is located in the existing right-of-way"and if
the road right-of-way is cut down it would put that surface well inside the lot
by a considerable margin."
Brewer: "It look's by the way they landscaped it would be out near the tree."
Grindstaff: "Our plans are to incorporate some of the mature trees into the
landscape plan - it won't look all new"
Ewing: "It will be sprinkled and I would like to also assure the City that on
the landscaping we are willing to put up a Bond to do what we say we will do -
we have full intentions with the landscaping and we will back this with a bond.
We want it to look good and it will look good."
Councilman Williams: "My concern is that which I have talked with Planning and
Zoning people, and that's the density. Our Comprehensive Plan calls high density
8 to 15 dwelling units per dwelling acre - this figures 24. We had some reasons
for doing that, if we are going to go against our Comprehensive Plan I would like
to know why and not just arbitrarily do it. It does look like a nice plan but I
really have a problem with what our Comprehensive Plan says and what you are asking
to be done."
Ewing: "I think the economics of it should enter into it right now and how many
four plexes are being built right now. We're hoping we can take a look at it
as it is right now rather then a couple of years ago when building was good."
Williams: "Why should the City take a more lenient position because of economic
hard times. My business doesn't get any relief from any units of government
because of the downtrend of the economy. I hate to see the fact that we spent a
lot of time and a lot of citizen effort to develop the Comprehensive Plan and then
we say "the economy's down so let's just kind of throw it out the window for now"
I question the long term effect it will have on the City. The short terms aren't
just for a few."
Sara Ewing: "I felt like we should have higher density on that lot because it is
closer downtown and it is hard for people to drive cars and get around. They could
walk to anything from 2nd to downtown. It would be a shame to take a lot so close
to the downtown and not be able to develop it. Those figures (6-Plex) are put
together to be visible with 12% money. So, I'm thinking of the high density to
be closer to facilities."
Williams: "Again, when this Comprehensive Plan was put together we went through
these densities pretty stringently. My question comes to why did we do this?"
Ewing: "Aren't there going to be exceptions? Are you going to go down the line
and never have a variance?"
Williams: "We've doubled it - we've gone from 15 units to 24 units per acre.
That to me is a hard pill to swallow, because what if everyone else comes in and
want's the same thing? Where do you draw the line - what justification is there
with this project over some other project? We have to treat everybody equitably,
if we've laid down some requirements and guidelines, then we're in the position
that we have to treat everybody equitably to find the reasons for the trade-off.
My question is, what reasons do you have for the trade off.?
Vern Schoen, Bldg. Inspector: "On density, in a new Subdivision streets are
figured in - so there should be part of these streets figured in."

APA - Art Collins and Erv Olin LONG RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING
Art Collins and Erv Olin were present to present the proposed process and
schedule of the Long Range Transportation Planning,
Erv Olin, Ada Planning Association Transportation Planning Director, spoke
to the Piayor and Council requesting their cooperation and participation in the
development of the long range transportation plan for the City of Meridian.
Olin: "We feel the most successful transportation plan is one that involves
each of the western communities as well as the urban area of Boise and it's
surroundings. We propose that we "kick off" the process that we're going to
propose to be followed, tonight, by having you agree to support us in this effort
and appoint a committee of businessmen, developers, Planning & Zoning Commission
Members that are available and at least one liason from the City Council or the
Mayor. We need a guiding force to help us develop this and look at the long
range transportation needs that you have, based on your growth plans, etc. -
suggest and recommend on what that plan is to be."
P~ayor and Council were presented a copy of the Proposed Process and Schedule
Copy describing Meetings and purposes, etc. on File with these minutes.
Olin: "I want to emphasize that we will be available to provide staff support to
your advisory committee here in Peridian with the meetings being led by whoever
you have involved, whenever they are available to meet. We would like you to tell
us what your needs are, document that, then go through the rest of our process.
6y doing this it will give you a great deal of leverage in dealing with some erected
officials responsible for providing transportation."
Olin explained the background of the meetings and the time frame.
Olin: "We are asking that the final recommendations be completed prior to
Christmas so that we can take that intact and add it to the rest of the Countywide
transportation recommendations, and take that package on through the rest of the
process."
Copy describing Peetings and Time frame on file with these minutes.
Olin: "Once we have received input from the Public at large, we will take the
planned document and the comments we have received and go through a refinement
process so we can get a final plan adopted by April or May. Our deadline is to
have a plan to submit to the appropriate implementing agencies and Federal Agencies
in July, next year."
Mayor: "How many people do the other communities have on their committee?"
Olin: "We are just starting to work with them - about seven people is the maximum
that we're suggesting."
Williams: "When do you want this committee formed?"
Olin: "By the end of September"
Art Collins: "It might be helpful for you to pick out a Chairman so that Erv and
I could work with that person and give us better contact."
Mayor: "I would recommend Bilr Brewer,'as Transpdrtation'and Street Commissioner,
to head this Committee and facilitate with the Chamber of Commerce and Planning and
Zoning, As Police Commissioner there wuuldbe added interest for traffic control."
The P-lotion was made by Williams and seconded by Kingsford that 6i11 Brewer be
appointed as Chairman of the City of Meridian Long Range Transportation Planning
and to facilitate with the Chamber of Commerce, the Peridian Planning and Zoning
Commission, and!the Police Department.
Motion Carried: Williams, yea; Kingsford, yea
Brewer, nay
Brewer: "I cant see what the hurry would be as I don't know where we are going to
get the money to spend on this anyway."
Olin: "It's an issue that you are going to have to deal with. What we're hoping
to do is look at where the need is and then look at the dollar differences - then
deal with that hard issue and how we are going to nay for it all. You're right,
it's going to be the biggest issue to face but we have to look at it now. By
having a growth development plan I think it will give you a lot of leverage to get
whatever funds are available - so it's a benefit there. There really is a

Federal mandating it - if we don't complete this process by July we lose. the
transportation monies, and that's a direct statement from them. They have been
signing it for years and they finally come out and made it official."
Williams: "What Transportation monies?"
Olin: "We have about 1.1 million dollars per year that goes to the metro area
of Boise - Meridian gets about $60,000 a year Urban D Fund. I think if we make
an honest effort and we identify some issues by simply taking the time and if we
can describe them as such, we can complete this process and be able to follow
through. But it is limited time and we are asking for cooperation in trying to
meet this schedule by December. The decision won't come until May, probably."
Mayor Glaisyer thanked the APA Planners before they left the Council Chamber.

Attorney Crookston: "I have received a telephone response to my letter to
American ':Arbitration Association. My letter to them was to inquire if we did
not pay the advance arbitrators fee and they said nothing really happens, you, go
forward with the arbitration. However, the arbitrators have the ability to award
Arbitrators fees in any fashion that they see fit - the same as a Judge. They can
award all of these against one party, split them or however they want or think is
fair. The amount that they requested was wrong, they had asked for $1800.00 and
send a bill both to the City and to DVY for the $1800.00. This should have been
$900.00 so they are going to rebill the City for $900.00. At the point that we
receive the bill I would suggest that we pay it."
Bill Brewer, Police Commissioner: "Corporal Kevin Roberts was promoted to Sergeant
as of September l and is presently receiving Sergeant's wages. As Police Commissioner
I would like to make the Motion he also receive a Merit Raise for his outstanding

The transportation circulation system is one of the most important itgns irx
deternirg the fortti and quality of the envirorvnent of the urban area. The
arrarg gnent and form of the circulation syste,ns, the location of routes, opera-
tional policies, and the level of services greatly influence the development and
physical organization of the planni.rg area and the City.
URBATJ F[RJCTIOtJAL DEFIhffTIO"]S
In order to accanplish transportation objectives, it is necessary to have common
understandings of the different service levels of transportation systems.
Principal Arterials - Gener«lly serve the main travel corridors arx9 involve
longer trip lengths, carry hi{;h vol~unes of traffic, have a minimal nturd~er of
access points, and discourage parkini;. They can serve as boundaries for
neJ,hborhoods a~d rciy serve a> a buffer between incompatible lard uses.
They are not intended to be residential streets.
Minor Arterials -Include medium traffic volume streets to arxJ from other
arterials arx9 the freevray, collect traffic Fran less significant circulation
systems, and distribute traffic to major routes. Their pra9ominate f~xncrion
is to move through traffic and minimize access. `They can acr_anmo9ate 4
lanes and parking is discouraged. They may serve av boundaries for neigh-
borhoa9s as yell as buffers between incanpatible lard uses. The pentration
of minor arterials within residential neighborhoads should be avoided.
Collectors -Provide direct service to residential areas, colJ.ect traffic
fran local streets arx9 neighborhoa9s, channel traffic into arterial systems,
and have direct access points to adjacent lard. They are generally 2 Lanes
with harking or 4 lanes without ~arkirp; and may be the principal traffic
arteries arithin residential neighborhoa9s.
Local Streets -Serve to enhance residential areas an9 should be for local
traffic movement. Their primary flarret.lon is to provide direct access to
abutting lard. They are generally 2 lanes with parking. Service to
through-traffic is discouraged.
Frontage Roads -Local, auxi..tiary roac9s to, arx9 located on the side of, an
arterial highway for service to abutting property and adjacent areas arrJ for
control of access. The fLrnction of the frontage read is to control access
to the travelec9 way for through-traffic, to provide access to the property
adjoining the highway, arc9 to maintain circulation of traffic on each side
of the highway. Frontage roads not only provide upre favorable access for
carrnercial aryl residential development than a .faster uxwin,; arterial street
but also help to preserve the safety ;ud ca[acity of the latter. The design
of frontare roads is affectc~9 by the type of service it is intended to pro-
vide.
