Agenda I~7airor Glaisyer stated that the inpumt given shows that the citizens object to the 1 negotiating of a contract with the Ada County Sheriff Department for Police protection and made the recomnenaation to deny any contract with the County for the City Police protection and hold studies for the next riscal year to determine a better way to fund the Police Department of the City.. The Notion was made by Kingsford and seconded by 7bisma that the City of T~ridian not contract the Ada County Sheriff Department for the Police Force and that Mayor Glaisyer appoint a citizen group to study the funding for ne~;t fiscal year, 1582. Motion Carried: Kingsford, yea; Brewer, yea; Tolsna, yea; Orton, yea. P4ayor Glaisyer: "The Police Department will remain totally as is for this fiscal year and I appreciate the input - we have been concerned about dollars and cents." Jackie Burgess: "Will they then hold this where it will accamdate the people that cant get in?" Mayor: "?fie have been trying to get a newt City Hall for several years." The Mayor explained that if this had been a full p7blic hearing the City would have tried to accomodate by holding the meeting at a school. The committee can arrance it next year. Counci]mar: Kingsford stated that the citizen input should be given to the catani.ttee. Agenda 2 TRANSPORTATION PLAN FOR TIT.E CITY OF MBRIDL?~1`d Annette Hinrichs, Chairman of Planning and Zoning Co,-r¢nission,introduced Ervin Olen Jr. Transportatior. Planning Director, APA. Hinrichs explained that the City of Meridian Transportation Plan Committee had met several times and had sane changes already to our draft. Olen had presentec'~ a draft to each member of the Council and aisplayed the map of the Ada County Transportation Plan ir. detail. Before APA can finalize the plan the City Council must authorize the submittal of this plan that will became a single countywide tra*isportation plan. The purpose tonight is to obtain a motion to submit the Transportation Plan to the Intergovernmental body for the action to include in the countl• ~•ride plan. There +aas much discussion of the draft. (Tape on file in City Clerks office) Olen stated that they know that the plan cannot be produced without adequate funds and that we are between 1.8 acid 6.8 million dollars deficit. Olen explained sane of the issues such as where the Urban boundan1 would be. The ~~~.ate policy that Federal aid has secondary funds for outside urban areas cannot be spent within urban areas. The widening of Eagle F.oad from Overland P.oad up to Fairview P_ve. is estimated at 3 1/2 million dollars. If this route is contained in Merieian's Urban Bounaary those funds are not available and would have to be made up through private donations or the $70,000 per year that "~ridia~ gets fran Urban D funds. Olen stated that Federal Aid in Primary and Secondary Funds will not beavailable for improvements in this area if this current boundary is maintained. The .final issue is the Meridian-KUna Poad. The State has a project funded with Federal Aid Secondary Funds to widen and approve fran Amity to Overland Roads -the estimated cost 1.4 million. He stated if Meridian kept the boundary shown, the City would. loose that 1.4 million and has to be made up in urban allocation funds which is being used for the Cherry Lane e._ , _, . .. - ,~-__.Y..~.. I~ridian Cit Aaerda 2 (Cont'd) TRANSPORTATION PLAN.......... 7 improvement Olen stated since the southwest portion is not intended for urban sewer service and because of that it may be the practical thing to move this boundary in and just take in the growth area that has been identified. He suggested this may salvage apx. 5 million dollars in Federal Aid. As soon as the roads are improved the City can change the Urban Boundary back as originally planned. Annette Hinrichs stated that the T:ransporation Plan Cac¢nittee selected the boundary with the feeling it was more reasonable because those roads effect the City of Meridian. Councilman Brewer stated that the Transportation boundary was chosen to go along with the City's proposed Impact Area to cut out more confusion. Terry Smith, Transportation Conriittee Me;nber, stated that he definitely felt the Resource Planning Boundary should go beyond the present Urban Planning Area. His understanding in the planning process of the Transportation Resource Boundary that the Committee set was much different than the Urban Service Planning Area. Smith stated before any changes are made he would like to see clarification as to whether this °'hypothetical" Resource Boundary is really what the State law pertains to. Olen suggested that the Conmittee look seriously at identifying, for purpose of a Urban Service Planning Area Boundary, that would contain itself to the growth. The scope of the dollar issue is just now coming to light. Hinrichs: "So we can have our Transportation Resource Area and also have our Urban Service Planning Area?" Olen: "Absolutely" Hinrichs: "May I also point out we would have to keep our Urban Service Planning line off of Eagle Road - cre have already annexed sane land across Eagle Road." Attorney 49ayne Crookston: "Can you have an area that is located within the City, as far as City limits, -let's say Cherry Lane Village -and have it :narked out of the boundary .-caking it capable of having rural funds applied to it?" Ole:'i: "r7ormally, no. The-Federal Highway Administration has to approve this and if they see that kind of manipulation I think you would get quite a reaction. A~ a ininiminn you are going to have to include the City limits." Hinrichs: "Will you explain. what caould happen on Eagle Road if we have our Urban Service Planning Area and then Upland properties jog across Eagle Road." Clen: "That half mile would have to be in the Urban Boundary and would be about a million dollars. In that half of mile you would have to seek a means of additional finance.""The rest of the 5 million dollars would be for the remainder of Eagle Road improvanent. The Eagle Interchange is partly programmed for Federal Aid Primary. If it's in the Urban area the State has informed me that it would be eligible for a new Interstate progra,-n for restoration and rehabilitation of the Interstate and compete for all other statewide projects. If that were a part of your Urban Bounaary you could assume that the 2 million dollar cost would be picked up to this new Federal Aid Program - as a most optomistic outlook -private funds could also be used." Hinrichs: "So there is another possible source of funding?" Olen: "Only for the Interchange itself. The 2 riillior. dollars for the building of the Interchange would qualify for this new Federal Interstate program if it were in the Urban area. The 5 million is: 2 1/2 million dollars from Eagle Road, 2 miles from Overland to Fairview --" Hinrichs: '°Is that including the Interchange? So if the Interchange is also in our City boundary then the funding for the Interchange is also?" Olen: "The funding for the Interchange -the Federal Aid Primary funds that is currently programmed by 1987 would not be available, but there would be a substitute Federal program to pick up the cost of the Interchange. You are not really jeopardizing funds for the Interchange -you would be changing funding source." Mayor Glaisyer: "Let me reverse this a little bit - if the Interchanae goes in by Federal funds, the Federal government pays for it and it is not out of State money?'° Olen: "There is a State match but there's no local funds that go into it." Mayor: "O.Ii., we could say this saves 3 million dollars and we are geared for 5 million for Urban Transporation as it is by the State now?" Olen: "No, the 5 million in question is from two (2) sources -Federal Primary, which is generally spent or, a State Highway systan and Federal Aid Secondary which is funds available outside of Urban areas -both of which are Federal Aid. The 5 million would be those two (2) sources of funds which are not eligible to be spent within Urban areas. The Interchange is an additional 2 million dollars - on top of the 5 million. Right now it's scheduled by 1987 Federally Primary, ha3ever, if it's part of the Urban Meridian Cit .3. Se (Agenda 2 (Cont'd) TRANSPORTATION PLAN...... 7 Boundary it would still be eligible for Federal Aid through a new Interstate rehabili- tation program. So the 2 million dollars for the Interchange is not in jeopardy at this point. Private funding is still another alternative." "If the Interchange is outside the Urban boundarj, if it's within, I really don't know what the construction date would be -the State would have to determine that." Counci].rnan Tolsma: "Does the fact that you are in or outside the City limits have a bearing on this?" Olen: "I believe it does. There is a limit has you can manipulate boundaries -this could be a hazardous ploy, I think." Councilman Kingsford: "Sarre months ago the Highway District suggested that we did not annex roadways -was that basicaaly for this purpose?" Olen: "Right" Kingsford: "So, if cae deannexed all the highways in Meridian, we would get around this technically?" Olen: "I thinktechnically so -still...." Kingsford: "It would become lust as obvious -they are doing this in other places in the county, not annexing the highways -isn't that every bit as obvious?" Olen: "Yes, and no. There's a certain amount of discretion. The Federal's are not going to block any efforts that we have to gain as much as we can." Kingsford: "While talking about the possibility of loosing 5 million dollars -they have a formula by which they span - do we have any assurance that we can cash in on that 5 million in "X" number of years anyway?" Olen: "No, the monies available in the Meridian Urban areas, about $70,000 per year, is guaranteed." Kingsford: "The money outside? Primary or Secondary?" Olen: "Those funds are in a statewide pot and there is carrpetition statewide for those funds. If they are currently programed, let's say 5 million dollars to be spent for the projects we discussed and if it's part of the Urban Boundary those funds will divert back to other statewide needs -they would be lost. It doesn't mean you couldn't cacrpete later on." City Engineer Gary Smith: "In other words, in order to acamrulate that $70,000 per yr. the City of Meridian has to have a project approved?" Olen: "You're guaranteed $70,000 in order to spend it you have to have an approved oarcel." Smith: "But you can accrrrnilate but only if you have a project?" Olen: "Right, it doesn't go back in the pot but Meridian's use, it doesn't accrmrulate. For instance, you have the Cherry Lane project for 1937 and the reason it's so far out is that you are accrmrulating enough money to pick up that. If you borrow against it...." Mayor Glaisyer: "W have done that, on the North curve - we are actually in deficit - it would be balanced by 87 to begin the next project..." Olen: "I would have to look at it." S]r>.ith: "Is there a possibility we can get sane help frarr Upland Industries on Eagle Road -that goes through that annexation?" Mayor: "I thought that was in the Annexation agreanent, that they would make all i,-rrprovements . " Councilman Kingsford: "Through their property - ACF~ standards.- Now it's going to be part of the State Highway, there may be sane problems." Attorney Crookston: "If an area is progratrened for a project under a Rural F1ar_d, whether Primary or Secondary, and then it's annexed -does it loose that program or is there kind of a Grandfather....?" Olen: "No, that happened with Cherry Lane, there were funds programed through this Urban Secondary Program. Sane type of census was taken that proved Meridian was over 5,000 population -that autanatically qualifies Meridian for Urban status, which by formula guarantees $70,000 per year. But, half a million dollars that was programmed at yhat time for Cherry Lane, of of a sudden disappeared because of the new status. So there is no Grandfather program." OlPai pointed out two anissions on the map (displayed): 1) project to be canpleted 1983 Easthocuid on-ramp to the Interstate at the D'iexidian-Kona Read - $190,000 to be paid with Interstate Funds 2) one of the collectors would be added back in (not named) (Tape on file in City Clerk's office) Olen highlighted A°A Staff carenents on the MMeridian Transporation Plan. 1) they cannlimented the Comittee on use of Bicycle-Pedestrian ways 2) issue of boundaries of the City's Urban Service Boundary 3) designations of collectors connecting Franklin P.oad with Fairview on East First Street and Meridian Street. Meridian City Council .4. September 7, 1982 _ Agenda 2 (Cont'd) TRANSPORTATION PLAN...... Olen: "We would like to preserve this corridor as really preserving "Old Town" concept without making a major thoroughfare -that this in fact would have pressures on arterial status at this time." "4) Final cannent on proposed extension of Lxust Grove, north-south overpass -this may be very expensive." (Tape on file with City Clerk) Councilman Orton stated that with the changes brought forth tonight there should be more time given for study. He also stated there had been sane work done for heavy traffic on Meridian Street by Mr. Nahas (Treasure Valley Mall) in regard to re-routing traffic through town. At least there has been study and one of the ideas between Franklin and Cherry Roads and between Meridian and Locust Grove Roads, Nahas' had programmed a prinicipal arterial to route the traffic around. Olen stated that the Transportation Plan Committee felt the overpass on Locust Grove ~~ would be one way of deterring that. Time may prove that the Technical people are right and people will go where they want to go in spite of our best efforts - at least the concept now should try to achieve getting the traffic through." There was discussion concerning the time left to cane back with an accepted plan. Olen stated this needs to be canpleted by the end of September or Federal Funds may be jeopardized. Councilman Brewer requested one (1) hard workshop before the next Council meeting to be held Sept. 20th. (Draft on File in the Transportation Plan file, City Clerk's office) Councilr.~an Brewer thanked each and everyone of the Meridian Transportation Ca;mittee Annette Hinrichs, Terry Smith, Kevin Robertson and Steve Gratton for all of their efforts involving many meetings the last eleven months. Agenda 3 Y~P.RIVG - 1982/1983 Fiscal Year BUDGET Mayor Glaisyer: "The Public Hearing is now open for anyone that wishes to make any camient regarding the final budget, 1982/1983 Fiscal year, totaling One million, three hundred eight thousand and seventy dollars ($1,308,070.00) This budget does include the Police Department.'- Is there any catment from the public?" There was no response. "There being no ca;ment, I will close the Public Hearing for the 1982/1983 Budget." Mayor Glaisyer read Ordinance No. 410 entitled: AN ORDINANCE SETTING FORTH T:~ TOTAL P.M,OU'VT OF MONEY NECESSARY TO BE RAISED FROtd TAXES P.SSFSSED ON THE TAXART.F. pgOpERTY WITdIN THE CITY OF MERIDIAN FOR Tf~ YEAR BEGINNING OC'T'OBER 1, 1982, AND IIVDING SEP'Pr'R+IDER 30, 1983. "General Fund total is $296,712.00" :+layor: "Is there anyone in the audience that wishes Ordinance number 410 read in it's ertirety?" There was no response.

Hosac, Meridian Engineer, was present representing the Ambrose Annexation request, property located 2250 North Meridian Road and to be zonsi"C" Ccxcmercial. iiosac: "There were some items that Planning and Zoning passed along to City Council for review when they approved the annexation. Those related to twv agencies - Ada County Highway District and Central District Health. bVith regard to ACFID they had rec~iended three (3) requirements: 1) dedication of additional rightrof- way to provide a total of 40 foot on the east side, there is currently a 30 foot right-of-way there 2) in regard to existing monuments, fla~+erbox-mailbox post type, twv of these either side of the current driveway entrance to the house. ACPD was concerned about those because they would fall within this new dedicated right-of~way 3) Approved the deletion of the requirement for deposit to the Public Road Trust Fund. City Clerk congirmed that Keith Jacobs, ACRD, had recoamended item #1 and #2 letter of request be upheld and that the item #3, Road Trust Fund be deleted. Hosac stated that the ACHD has a "license agreement" that the monuments are not a traffic hazard and they can remain in place until such time they decide to widen the road. The two monuments are a good 6 to 10 feet off the edge of the existing pavement. Hosac: "I have agreed with ACHD to dedicate the 10 foot right-of-caay and to sign the license agreement regarding the monuments." Y.osac Central District Health had indicated they could approve the project for individual water and cannented that the existing septic tank should be inspected by thin. I contacted Nancy Goodell (CDH) and in lieu of coming out and inspecting the septic tank, if we could indicate to her that the size of the existing septic tank and also whether it had been serviced or pumped within the last couple of years, that would be adequate. Mr. Anderson, property owner, furnished a letter,which I sent to Nancy.jndicating the septic tank had been pumped within the last two years and the septic size being 1,000 gal. Goodell said this was adequate and a receipt has been sent to verify pumping." "4oode1l asked for a water sample test and the results are not in. This was tested by Mr. Anderson some time back and proved alright. I believe the issuo;of ACFID and CDH have been taken care of." Hosac invited questions concerning the Ambrose Annexation. Fire Chief, Roger Welker, canted that this Annexation will cause an enclave on the east side of North Meridian Road. Councilman Kingsford questioned hookup fees and services required. It vras established that the property vras more than 300 feet from City services and that the present ordinance requires within 300 feet. Mayor Glaisyer: "I will now open the Ambrose Annexation request for public input. Is there anyone in the audience that wishes to make can[nent regarding this request?" There was no response. "There being no public comment I will close the public hearing. 4dere all the appropriate notices given?" City Clerk: "Yes, sir." The Motion was made by Brewer and seconded by Orton to instruct the City Attorney to prepare Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law for the Ambrose Annexation to be zoned "C" Commercial and with consideration of Ada County Highway District recatmend- ations rnmiber 1 and number 2, and deletion approval of number 3; Planning and Zoning requirements and deAnnexation requirements within preparation of Annexation Ordinance.

Agenda 8 DEPARI°~4:.NT REPORTS: Building Inspector Vernon Schoen had directed a letter of request for the adoption of the new 1982 Uniform Building Code and 1982 Book of Standards, recaimending the gravel footing be disallowed in Nlesidian. Schoen stated that the City now has nine (9) permitted wUOd foundations. There was discussion concerning gravel footings being discouraged. (Tape on File) TI-~e Notion caas made by Bruner and second~l by Tolsma to adopt the new 1982 U.B.C. Code and the 1982 U.B.C. Book of Standards and disallow gravel footings, requiring concrete footings. Notion Carried: Brewer, yea; Tolsma, yea; Orton, yea; Kingsford, yea City Engineer Gary SYnith presented the Contract for the 1982 Water project P,esidentail Tdater Service Line Rehabilitation, HUD Grant. Smith explained this is being brought back for Mayor Glaisyer's signature because the City had over authorized expenditure. Public Work's Superintendent, Bruce Stuart, had made a list of materials on hand and can supply the contractor for installation. Stuart has made a list of the materials, priced out with a supply house in Boise, the amount was su}xnitted to the contractor, 4Ves Henske, which he approved with the exception of one minor item, and the net reduction to the contract is $1,779.63. This reduces the contract to $16,804.98. This puts Meridian within the budgeted amount through the grant amendment that the City has received prior approval on and also allows additional expenditure for a piece of equitanent we need. Counci]man Orton: "Is this construction good by our standards as far as costs, Bruce?" Stuart: "All the materials furnished are what we have in stock and we won't have to replace them." Smith: "'Phe contract is set up for $18,584.61 and I present this Change Order that would need approval and signed concurrently with the contract that would reduce it to the $16,804.98. Irr. Henske has supplied his performance payment bond insurance papers and he would like to start on September 20th (1982)." i71e Motion was made by Orton and seconded by Kinasford that the Council except the Contract Change Order 1982 Vlater Project Pesidential Water Service Line Rehabili- tation, #B-81-DN-16-0001 HUD Grant. Motion Carried: Kingsford, yea; Brewer, yea; Ortor., yea; Tolsma, yea A bill fran Valley News for publication of hearing or. the 1982 Water Project was presented.

At tf~e initiation of the Mayor and Council of the City of Meridian, Idaho, an in cooperation with the Ada Planning Association, a transportation planning pro- cess was begun in September, 1981, to look at future transportation ne ~ s. This report represents an assessment of transportation needs that respond to the Meridian Comprehensive Plan. As such, it will be the basis for implementing the transportation improvements of the urban and rural transportation system which meets Meridian's growth and development plans. GOALS AND. OBJECTIVES The overall goal of the Meridian Comprehensive Plan is to support and achieve: 1) a balanced transportation system (roads, mass transportation, bicycle paths, pedestrian walkways), 2) a reduced level of vehicle usage when and where alter- natives are available, and 3) the monitoring and involvement in transportation improvements and their compatibility with existing and proposed land uses. The following objectives are intended to support and implement the overall goal: 1. Designate all arterial and collector streets within the Transportation Planning Area and assure that adequate right-ot-ways and setbacks are established; 2. Control access to and from arterial streets where adequate safety and traffic control devices can be installed; 3. Increase the efficiency of the existing transportation system; 4. Identify major transportation corridors (existing or new) and preserve them for future growth; 5. Recognize the importance of relying upon ridesharing for future trars- portation needs; 6. Develop a transportation system for the Year 2000 that maintains the carbon monoxide attainment standard; 7. Preserve the integrity of the built canmunity and other traffic sen- sitive areas; DRAFT 2 66100#3-C Page 1 8. Support be consistent with the local comprehensive plan~ridian Comprehe~e Plan) and the areawide comprehensive plan (Ada~ounty Comprehensive Plan); 9. Develop an energy efficient transportation system; 10. Develop a transportation system that meets the reasonable financial ability of local and state governments; and 11. Continue to improve a safe non-vehicular system (bicycle and pedestrians). ISSUES The transportation planning process establishes that the following issues are of prime importance: Fundable Choices We need to look at the movement needs for the citizens of Meridian and current sources of dollars for improvements. Other sources of funding will have to be examined to minimize the gap between those movement ne~ls and currently fundable so I ut ions . Level of Service on Roadways Through examination of available funds and travel demand, we should determine whether a stable traffic flow is affordable; i.e., a traffic flow which allows drivers reasonable freedom to select their speed and lane of operation. Meeting the Need by Moving People Emphasis must be placed on people movement rather than vehicle rrovement. This would look at using the best type of travel (bike, walk, auto, ridesharing) to reach each destination. Growth Issues Locally adopted land use plans and growth patterns must be supported and remain valid throughout this planning process in order to develop an effective, overall plan to meet Meridian's travel needs. DRAFT 2 6610083-C Page 2 • Iv LOCAL PLANNING PROCESS 4Jith appointment and charge by the Mayor and City Council of Meridian, a Transportation Planning Committee was formed in September, 1981. The canmittee consisted of the following persons: Member Representing Chairman, Bill Brewer City Council Terry Smith Chamber of Commerce Steve Gratton Chamber of Commerce Kevin Robertson City Police Department Annette Heinrichs Planning and Zoning Canmission The Transportation Planning Committee met on several occasions to discuss the following: 1. Transportation goals, objectives and issues. 2. Local determinations: a. Boundary of the Transportation Resource Planning Area. b. Population projections to the Year 2000. c. Existing and projected land use. d. Priority growth areas. 3. Year 2000 Urban and Rural Funct;onal Classifications (arterials and collectors). 4. Alternative transportation systems: a. Bicycle/Pedestrian System b. Ridesharing c. Para-Transifi (senior citizen van) 5. Present and future transportation problems. 6. Major transportation improvements. V COCRDItJATION WITH OVERALL COUNTY TRANSPORTATION PLAPJ Integration with the Transportation Plan for Northern Ada County has been accomplished through support of the Meridian Transportation Planning Committee and participation by the staff of Ada Planning Association. As the policy com- mittee for transportation planning in Ada County, Ada Planning Association has the responsibility of developing transportation policies, plans and programs for formal adoption by implementing agencies. Meridian's Transportation Plan will DRAFT 2 66100#3-C Page 3 ensure the city's II participation concerning countywide transport n deci- s ions among al I o ie implementing agenci es. Such deci sions wi I I r~lt through an annual review and evaluation of identified policies and capital expenditures. Transportation projects will be generally prioritized as to need, cost and resulting benefits. They will also be evaluated for improvements in mobility, air quality, safety, energy consumption compatibility with the existing comprehensive land use plans and to what extent there would be minimal adverse impacts on the existing built community. Projects from the Transportation Plan will then be brought into the five to seven-year horizon for shorter range programming and funding canmitments through the Transportation Improvement Program for fJorthern Ada County. Detailed phasing of implementation and actual dollars necessary will be noted at that time. VI TRAPJSPORTAT I ON RESOURCE PLANN I ~ AREA - EX I ST I PG AND PROJECT BJ COND IT I ONS As contained in the 1978 report, Dem~raphic and Employment Distribution to the Year 2000 of Ada County, Meridian is expected to grow in population accordingly:l 1975 19801 1985 1990 1995 2000 6,349 8,920 12,223 16,042 20,562 25,150 MAP A in the Appendix is from 1978 Ada County Demographic and Employment Distribution to the Year 2000 and illustrates how Meridian's population is expected to be distributed. As growth and development occurs to the Year 2000, it is expected that the priority growth area will be within traffic zones 199, 198, 197, 200, 201, 202, 203, 207 and 206. (See shaded portions of MAP A in the Appendix.) Those elements of the the transportation system of Meridian which do not concern single auto occupancy travel involves the following: Railrnarl The Boise loop of the Union Pacific Railroad passes through the Meridian area. It's principal function is expected to stimulate and support developing indus- trial areas. According to a final advance report from the U.S. Census Bureau, the popula- tion of the city limits of Meridian as of April i, 1980 was 6,658. DRAFT 2 66100H3-C Page 4 Ridesharing Meridian citizens are presently participating in the Ada County Valley Canmu- teride Vanpool Program with five single 15-passenger vans. Support of the program has been favorably received, as occasionally there is a waiting list of interested riders. Fee for the monthly commuter service is $30 per month. Daily or occasional round trip rides are available at $2.00/day. It is, estimated that the current ridership on the vanpool and carpool program for commuters to Boise is 13$ to ]5$. Future ridesharing levels would continue to rely on voluntary carpools and vanpools. The countywide ridesharing goal is to capture 25$ of Meridian's commuter trips to the core downtown Boise area using an expanded ridesharing program. Proposed: Of the total projected trips related to employment, the following ridesharing percentages are projected to apply to the Meridian Transportation Resource Planning Area for the Year 2000. YEAR 2000 EMPLOYMENT TRIPS TO BOISE METROPOLITAN AREA TOTAL TRIPS DRIVE ALONE RI DESI{ARING (One-Wa ) TRIPS (Car ool/Van ool) MERIDIAN TO BOISE EMPLOYMENT 11,000 8,700 2,300 TRIPS (770 vehicles) (One-Wa ) I With the anticipated population growth, it is projected that additional vanpools probably could be supported by local citizens due to increased transportation costs to the Boise and PJampa/Caldwell employment centers. Para-Transit Current: Through the financial assistance of the Ada County Council on Aging, Meridian has a senior citizen van program. With one van in operation, the present sche- dule is as follows: Mondays Elderly persons are transported to Boise for medical appointments. 1st Tuesday Elderly persons are transported to Meridian Wheel Inn Recreation Center for recreation activities. DRAFT 2 66100#3-C Page 5 2nd Tuesday E I derl y perso~re transported to Boise for shop pi ng excursions 3rd Tuesday Elderly persons are transported to Meridian Wheel Inn Recreation Center for potluck dinner. 4th Tuesday Elderly persons are transported to Karcher Mall Shopping Center in Nampa for shopping excursions. 4Jednesdays Elderly persons are transported to shopping excursions and medical appoint- ments within Meridian. Thursdays Elderly persons are picked up by van and transported to O.J.'s (restaurant) in Meridian for weekly nutritional program. Bicycle/Pedestrian This non-vehicular system, as illustrated on the Year 2000 Transportation P.esource Map, is projected to serve the demand and neod for internal trip making. As the system is implemented, every effort should be made to separate the bicycle/pedestrian system from arterial streets which carry significant amounts of auto traffic. VI YEAR 2000 FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION A Functional Street Classification System is a rational system of arterials, collectors and local streets which correspond to existing land use plans and policies and meets transportation criteria. Briefly, the methodology for iden- tifying the tunctional classification system are as follows: 1. Determining proper land use areas (residential, industrial, commercial) which need to be served by arteri al s; and 2. Locating collectors which serve as a bridge between local streets and arterials. Functional classification is the process by which streets and highways are grouped into classes according to the character of service they are intended to provide. It establishes a logical and efficient traffic channelization process by defining the part that particular roads or streets should play in serving the flow of trips through a roadway network. DRAFT 2 66100#3-C Page 6 Uses of Functional Classification 1. It enables local and state implementing agencies (Idaho Transportation Department and Ada County Highway District) to make r~uests for federal-aid highway funds for roadway improvements. All arterial and collector streets designated on the Year 2000 Functional Classification Map are eligible for federal funds. 2. It determines how particular urban roads/streets2 are to function based on major employment, activity centers and residential areas. See next page for further detail. DRAFT 2 66100k3-C Page 7 i Arterial • Emphasis is more for traffic movement on the roadway and for access to and from the roadway. Principal Art~ial Ideally principal arterials are limited access corridors that serve longer distance trips and demand of traffic between major trip origins and destinations. Minor Arterial Collector Emphasis is more towards an equal balance between traffic movement. Local Emphasis is more for access to and from the roadway and less for traffic movement on the roadway. ~AFFI~. F:o/~DWAY MOVEMENT Access DRAFT 2 66100# 3-C Page fi Minor arterials augment the principal arterial system and serve trips of less distance. Minor arteri al s aI so move a less predominant demand of traffic destination points than principal arterials. Collector Col lects traffic from local residential streets and channels this traffic to arteri al s. Local Street Provides for traffic rrovement within residential areas and for direct access to abutting land 3. It proJTdes an initial point of investigation of how a roa~ street should be designed so that its tunction is made possible. Limitations of Functional Classification 1. Although it does not necessarily determine right-of-way width, there are recommended and minimum right-of-way widths for each classifica- tion. What determines the right-of-way width is the measured amount of traffic on a road/street -- not so much its functional classification. 2. It does not automatically infer what will be the future traffic volumes or demands on a particular road/street. 3. It does not imply what improvements should be done to a particular road/street. The other functional classification concerns involve the rural area. The following definitions have been used for rural designations: Major Collector Provides service to any county seat not on an arterial route and links these places with nearby larger towns or cities or with routes of higher classification. Serves the more important intra-county travel corridors. Minor Collector Collects traffic fran local roads and brings two developed areas within a reasonable distance of a collector road. Provides service to the remaining smaller communities. Local Road Provides access to adjacent land and provides service to travel over rela- tively short distances.

VI I • MERI D IAN TRPNSPORTAT I ON PLAPJ Through a series of workshops and meetings of citizens and appointed and elected officials, this transportation plan was developed. With the anticipation of growth and development pressures during the next decade, it documents the mobi- lity needs of the citizens of the City of Meridian and the adjoining rural areas to the Year 2000. As depicted on page 17, the Year 2000 Transportation Plan Map is intended as a major guideline for transportation decisions of the Meridian area in conjunc- tion with normal public hearings related to the design and location of transpor- tation developments. In balancing m,bility and livability needs, the Meridian Transportation Plan Map provides degrees of permanence and flexibility to the comprehensive planning process: There will be a degree of permanence: 1) as principal and minor arterials are designated as boundaries for residential, industrial and commercial areas; 2) as identified residential areas are protected from the intrusion of arterials; 3) as planning is made for the movement of people to and fr an employment concentration areas; and 4) as principal and minor arterials pro- vide adequate egress and ingress for existiny and developing industrial and commercial areas. There will be a degree of flexibility: 1) as neighborhood planning is accomplished for each of the residential areas concerning essential urban services (fire and police protection, municipal central water and waste water collection and treatment, schools, urban standard streets and roads, emergency medical services, parks and recreation facilities and storm drainage facilities); 2) as provisions are made for the interior circulation of traffic within developing residential, commercial and industrial areas; 3) as provisions are made for development of pedestrian and bicycle routes; 4) as provisions are made for employment and economic improvement through industrial and commercial developments within the Meridian area; 5) as the monitoring and appraisal of projected land uses and growth assumptions are continued; 6) as specific development proposals are reviewed through zoning processes; 7) as one of the regional shopping center proposals at Kuna-Meridian Interchange and Eagle Road Interchange is actualized; 8) as the present Meridian central business district changes in shape and character with additional population growth and development and the concept of Old Town actualized; and 9) as the following freeway improvements are realized (completition of Kuna-Meridian Interchanye, an overpass extension of Locust Grove over the freeway and construction of Eagle Road Interchange). With concurrence by the intergovernmental process of Ada Planning Association and adoption by the City of Meridian, the Transportation Plan should be incor- porated into the comprehensive plan planning process of the City of Meridian. Such will involve: 1) appropriate amendments to the Meridian Comprehensive Plan initially adopted September, 1978; and 2) revision of the Meridian Urban Service DRAFT 2 66100#3-C Page 15 rn r z w ~i] S r a S ZN Q !r r W r Q O E v ® w ~ w r • • w ~ a o o f 8 w ® ~ r o C_> N -~ O Z W r r o F U w I- r Z U w Z f W p pp Q S S S T r_ g - N O a u L ~ m o m _ ~ k o ~ © ~ ~ o q B ~ a ~ ° v F L li q C C f/1 q q ~ N U ~ O L q C m q L O > ~ V } I } - O q U q O L L }c - U 9 - j ~ U p L I c O t U > T h~ q t > q O) 0 q J- L m q q N S Vf J y } O [O q T VI } } p L q q ~ L N ~' O m l ' L q L r OI T q } m N cq U } } L ~ q O } w pl rn W c V) t yl c c q 3 c U c p m C q - J } c q O N q T Q - O > W V l c V V O- N L Ci ~ q i~ W z - ~ s } q c u V q q ~ k } E '/I L c - u - 2 _ U J _ •r c q m l N U ~ ~ ~ jQ 6 3 w _ q E p } .- .~ q q m m Y L L d o L U n a m } B m m °c ~ + c ~ ~ v ` m } g ~ L ~ ` ~ J ~ q r co - a J n. ~ c4 n - q ti I - - o J } T VI L L q L - - m LL pl C UC } V W O L~ W~ 3 U W m m q -, @ - L > ~ q _ a -L L ~ L q q +- - m c LL v J ly - DRAFT 2 661 0 Q# 3-C Page 19 m J c } c 0 U ~i f O Z~ 6 Q H 6 O E ®~ • F ~~ o o~ ~s W ® ~ ~ o ~ N ~ o ~ ~ ~ ~ o ~ U F N W ( , Z h- > W Z ° ~ < ~ a a a f z g M ~, a u ~ N } q N N L H m k ~ m ~ k g e o k } ? o u N n q m p~ ~ m } ~ } C m L l O N m L q > m Vl q q m L E L k l q ° o L L } o ° + i g, } ~ - Y C m C - ~ U c i N ~ t O m a k A :° m ~' w m o f m m ~ a • O .~ o q - a L V m L } z o f N ~ EE O m ± - q 7 E q V N1 m- l 3 O u } m c l N L m ` k ~ q c k 1 c L } m m t ~ N Y - 3 m m ~ } C L C J C q 0 a U ?

Code and the 1982 U.B.C. Book of Standards. In the front of the new 1982 Code Book, page 20, is a sample crony of the new ordinance for *_he City Clerk to go by. The U.B.C. Book of Standards allows a wood faandation and can be bu:_lt on a gravel footing. I would reccxcFnend to the Mayor and Council that the gravel footing be disallowed in Meridian and that only concrete footings be allowed for wood foundations. In Meadaaview #2 we now have four (4) new houses with wood fowxi- ations but they do have concrete footings. I also check the ground water 1eveT_ a*_ one of the houses and it nag stands at about 12 to 14 inches belay the floor leveT_ of tlii- crawl spaces.
