The regularly scheduled meeting of the Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission was called to order at 7:00 P.M. by Chairman Keith Borup. rf Members Present: Chairman Keith Borup, Commissioner Michael Rohm, Commissioner Leslie Mathes, and Commissioner David Zaremba. Others Present: Jill Holinka, Jessica Johnson, Bruce Freckleton, Anna Powell, Craig Hood, Brad Hawkins-Clark, Steve Siddoway, and Dean Willis. Item 1: Roll-Call Attendance: Roll-call X David Zaremba Vacant X Leslie Mathes X Michael Rohm X Chairman Keith Borup ~~ Borup: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. We'd like to begin our regularly ~A scheduled meeting of the Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission for December 4th. ~`~ I'd like to start with the roll-call attendance of Commissioners. Borup: The first item is that of the minutes for October 16th and November 6th. Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, prior to that I would like to discuss adoption of the agenda. r° r;, ,: ;, -< a~ Item 2: Adoption of the Agenda: Borup: Okay. Please do. Yeah. That should have been the second -- Zaremba: Staff h as s uggested that I terns 1 2, 1 3, and 14, which relate t he Saguaro Canyon Estates Subdivision, be continued. They had a recent meeting with the applicant, who also has had meetings with neighborhood people, and that is recent enough that staff did not feel comfortable preparing notes for tonight. The applicant has agreed that they have a little bit more to do to change the plat before they are ready to present and it is, in all likelihood, we will continue that. My suggestion is that we move Items 12, 13, and 14 in front of Item 4. Borup: Okay. And we can do that if we are looking at a continuation. If there is anyone here -- let me ask that, maybe, first, before we do. Is there -- it looks like that we will probably continue that on. This is a request both of staff and of the applicant and it more than likely will be continued to the January 8th meeting. Now, we realize some of you have come here. Is there anybody that even though we are going to be continuing it and not have a staff report or report from the applicant, is there anybody here that would like to testify on that tonight? All right. If there was, we would still take that testimony, but we would do that in a regular scheduled place on the agenda. I see ;a~ Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 2 of 83 no one that wanted to testify tonight, if that was the way that -- Zaremba: I would so move that we rearrange the agenda such that Items 12, 13, and 14 are dealt with before Item 4. Rohm: I'll second that. Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Item 3: Consent Agenda: A. Approve minutes of October 16, 2003 Planning and Zoning Commission Regular Meeting: B. Approve minutes of November 6, 2003 Planning and Zoning Commission Regular Meeting: Borup: Item No. 3 was the Consent Agenda, which consists of the minutes. Did we have any additions or comments on the minutes? Zaremba: M r. C hairman, I m ove w e a pprove b oth A a nd B, t he m inutes o f 0 ctober 16th, 2003 and the minutes of November 6, 2003, as written. Mathes: Second. Borup: Motion and second. All in favor?

Then, we'd like to open Public Hearing AZ 03-027 and Public Hearing PP 03-032 and Public Hearing CUP 03-58. All three of those are for the Saguaro Canyon Estates Subdivision by Farwest, LLC, on the north side of McMillan Road and east of Meridian Road. Zaremba: Mr. Chairman? Borup: Commissioner Zaremba. Zaremba: For reasons stated earlier, both at the request of staff and the applicant and, apparently, the agreement of any neighbors who wish to testify, I move that we continue all three of those items to our meeting of January 8th. Mathes: Second. Borup: Motion and second. Any discussion? All in favor? Any opposed? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Borup: Okay. So, that meeting has been -- I mean that hearing has been continued to our January 8th meeting. There would not be any other notification to the neighbors. Tonight would serve as the notification of the time change -- or the meeting date change. Zaremba: And did I say 2004? I want to make sure I didn't say 2003. If I did, I'm correcting it to 2004. January 8th, 2004.

Our next Item is continued Public Hearing from O ctober 16th and -- ~' J'' '`~ Items 4, 5, and 6. So, we'd like to open AZ 03-021 and PP 03-024 and CUP 03-41. ;~, ' All three of those are related to the Red Feather Estates Subdivision. I think we had some partial testimony, but it was continued mainly waiting for the ACHD commission to ~'~~= meet and for their report, but I think there is probably several other staff items also, so at this point -- at this time we'd like to start with the staff report. Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Chairman Borup, Members of the Commission. There are a number of items on these three applications. Did I hear correctly, you did open all i~~~ ~,;.. three hearings on this? ~,~ ,~`' ~?~ Borup: Yes. {;~ ` ` ~"" Hawkins-Clark: Okay. So, I will do my best to kind of summarize the project here and, .4a~ then, hit some of the highlights that I think are outstanding for the Commission to decide r ~ tonight. Item No. 4 is the annexation and zoning request for the property. All of the '=t". property that is within the legal description of the annexation is shown in bold on the ~~ outline here on the screen. Ustick Road is on the north. Eagle Road, Highway 55, here on the west. Cloverdale Road is a quarter mile to the east, just off the screen. There are a number of subdivisions, six of them, I believe that, actually abut the F ~ `~ property. I think one important thing to point out for the annexation request is that two s> = of the parcels that are shown here, which are under different ownership than the rest, t <~ are not a part of Items 5 and 6 on your agenda. The preliminary plat and conditional '` use permit do not include the Bryson parcel, which is the larger one here with the South `' ~ Slough along its south boundary and, then, the parcel that is under the ownership of ~,~ ~~~~~~", Shamrick Trust is the smaller one here. Both of those do front on Eagle Road. Those r. `; -: ~ two parcels have been requested for a C-G, Commercial General Zone, and the ~ `= remainder of the property -- there are four other property owners on the balance and ~`~ they have requested R-8 zoning for those four parcels. So, approximately, 24 acres is '``"` proposed as C-G and a little over 90 is -- or a little under 90, I'm sorry, is -- remain for R- ~~~-~~ 8. As far as some of the adjacent property is Perkins-Brown Subdivision, which is in Ada County, is here adjacent to the west. It has an access off of Ustick Road. "'y~ ~ Duane Drive is the sole street that serves Perkins-Brown and it does come and `~~ ~` currently d Bad a nds a t t he s outh b oundary o f t heir s ubdivision. H Bather M eadows ;~ Subdivision is in Boise City. That's on the north side of Ustick. Clover Meadows _~~`'' Subdivision, which is also an Ada County subdivision, is here on the south. Briarwood ~, Subdivision just off the screen, you can see the cul-de-sac that comes in off of "'~ Cloverdale Road and then, Briarwood does cul-de-sac right here at this point. Dawson `~=' Meadows, currently under construction, is also in Boise City, shown here on the east. ~ ~ -~, -::~ And, then, Red Feather No. 1 is shown just below Dawson that has received approval E~r$i~ through on Boise City. I think those are the six subdivisions, Perkins-Brown, Heather Meadows, Clover Meadows, Briarwood and Dawson and Red Feather that all abut the '` `' property. In terms of the recommended conditions that staff has on the annexation, we Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 P f age 5 o 83 ~~f:, have five recommended conditions. We have received written response back and the ~z applicant is in agreement with those five recommended conditions. I think the only one to really maybe -- well, yeah. The one item worthy of being pointed out is number five, :~~ condition number five on the annexation and zoning, and that is in reference to the South Slough, which does cross the property down here in the southwest corner of this parcel currently owned by Dirkmeier and we will discuss that in the next couple of items. But the development agreement that we have recommended be entered into between the City of Meridian and the applicant is -- I think the only unique thing to that is that we *~x ,~;~ have recommended these two commercial parcels. Any future uses would have a Conditional Use Permit requirement and that even before they submit for a conditional °. use they would have a master concept plan and if you recall the Kissler annexation that you have already reviewed and recommended approval on to the City Council is just to ,r}> the north of this and we had the same development agreement condition on the Kissler •: ~ ,, < as we have recommended for the Bryson and other parcel here. The other , ~' ' =- development agreement conditions would be taken care of with any preliminary plat ~}'r4J approval that might take place. This aerial photo shows, generally, that you can see ~~''~"~, the Milks lateral crosses the property coming out of Dawson and then the South Slough is in the southwest corner of the Dirkmeier parcel here and then continues over to Eagle Road and crosses under Eagle Road. Here are a few site photos that were taken a few months ago. Duane Drive here up in the upper left, approximately 24, 25-foot rural ` street with no curb, utter or sidewalk. Most of the drains a takes lace in the swales 9 g P ,. '' '' that are adjacent to the street and as I mentioned before, this is taken from the very ;.~~~~ south end of the Duane Drive looking up towards Ustick Road. Here is the site from ti~,~.~< Ustick, currently agricultural uses. The stub street from Dawson on the eastern ~w;~,;;~ boundary is shown on the bottom right and then Granger Street, as you can see, has ~~ ~ been improved as a part of the Dawson Meadows Subdivision up to the point where it ,` '~' -, i abuts Red Feather Est ates No. 2 and then It turns Into agravel -- a gravel road. And ~' continues all the way through to the east. On the preliminary plat -- this will be, actually, split into two different slides here. The first slide is the majority of the project and then down here in the bottom left is the next -- where the next screen connects and this is ._:`_!, proposed Granger right here. So, I'll just go back and briefly summarize. They have <,~~ ingress-egress. The sole point for the project at this point is off of Ustick Road. They I have a residential collector street that does extend all the way through the project and ,' then connects to Granger. They have proposed all single-family detached houses for the subdivision. The two amenities that they have proposed -- well, actually, three, but the largest one is a subdivision private park that is located here in the center. The residential collector does front that. They have proposed a small parking lot that would allow people to actually drive to the amenity and a clubhouse and a pool. They have also shown a tot lot there. Their storm drainage is here on the north end of the common rt~ lot. They have several micro paths that they have proposed throughout the subdivision. Briarwood cul-de-sac is shown here and with staff support they have just shown a pedestrian connection there instead of carrying that through. There is quite a nice mature tree that's at the end of this cul-de-sac that they would provide a pathway stub connection there just to save -- preserve that tree. There is an existing house that was -~ built a couple of years ago on this Lot 1, Block 12, this large lot here that's a little over three acres in size. That existing house does take access off of Granger today. We ~~ ~ Meridian Planning & Zoning >,~ '~'' ~~" ~ ~ December 4, 2003 ` E' . Page 6 of 83 ~> have asked for a re-subdivision plan and we have received that tonight that shows a '--` ~ couple of different options on how this three acres might re-subdivide in the future. It + ~~ does have a stub street coming out of Dawson that we have asked to, in the future, F> connect all the way through to the residential collector should the project be approved ~ and this become a lot. Then, moving further south, they are showing to utilize a stub E street that's in Red Feather No. 1. Again, that was approved in Boise City, but not developed yet. They would utilize that stub street, so they would have in the future two ~~ stubs on their east boundary. There is no existing stub on the south, so they have not ' - shown anything at least on this portion that's east of Georgianna Milks' subdivision. ~~~`_ ,,,~:, Granger, as shown here, would then extend across -- cut across this corner here and then the other -- one of the latter phases of their preliminary plat is here south of ;~ a;, Perkins-Brown Subdivision. Here is the Duane Drive connection that I mentioned '"'~ , earlier. Here is the second common lot, private park that they are proposing. They j , are showing a basketball court as another amenity for the project. ACHD, as you ~";;' mentioned, Chairman Borup, one of the main reasons they continued this was so that Y ~I' the highway district could have their hearing on it. As you will no doubt hear from some of the public here tonight, the decision was made b ACHD to re uire a swin in ate Y q 9 99 '.` be constructed across the south terminus of Duane Drive, but they were asked to ?, `a~~i provide a pedestrian connection. As I mentioned in the memo that I submitted a couple ~~`', of weeks ago, the original plat did show Duane Drive being connected, but ACHD F ,. placed that condition on there. They said that the swinging gate could be removed at ~,. the request of the developer, City of Meridian, residents and other interested parties, r ^~ basicall Ave broad condition that if the hi hwa district receives f r Y rY g y a o mal request -A~ from any of those parties, then, they would remove that swinging gate. But until that , ~~ ~ happens that would be connected. Now, bear in mind that this is shown right now as a ~' latter phase in the development and maybe we can ask the applicant to address when ~`' s,~;:, they anticipate that. The fire department also made some -- made some comments ~r regarding this in terms of a secondary access, because if Duane is closed, of course, ~ I they would only have Granger to access this area, which would -- they would need a ~~ ' ~ secondary -- permanent secondary point of access to serve it. They are showing _'_ another stub in the future out to the Bryson parcel, which I showed earlier that has -- that goes out to Eagle Road and has a frontage there. I think there is only about four `~`;~ ' or five items that probably are worthy of specific discussion. Maybe I will start -- Bruce, _ you want to talk about the -- okay. I guess on the first item we are going to -- it deals ~~ ~: with the extension of a water main and that was addressed in both the staff report and _ ~'~"`' the applicant's response dated November 26th and we will request the applicant Becky McKay to address that. I guess the first item to point out -- and I will go back to the `` larger plat view here -- is there is a one-acre parcel that is not a part of this plat that is under the ownership of Smitchger and that has not been included, by the request of the owner. That one-acre parcel was a part of the over all lot that you -- the parcel that you ,- t`'`~ c see here. It was split off in 1997 through Ada County, but it was not approved under ; >~''~ Ada County subdivision ordinance per se. We have requested that the applicant °~~' provide us evidence that that split was done legally in Ada County. We have not <~ received that and have been told that it was, indeed, done illegally through Ada County. ~`~ So, we have -- the City of Meridian's ordinance says that asubdivision -- the way that it defines a subdivision is that it must include any parcels that have been split off from the 4.: § ~ h~i s:. "b i:'• `~ ~', It ;_` Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 7 of 83 parent parcel, if you will, since 1984, which was the adoption of the City of Meridian's subdivision code in 1984. So, it essentially ties the two together and says if you -- unless that parcel was split off in a legal manner, either through the City of Meridian or through Ada County then the whole original parcel needs to be incorporated into the legal description of the plat. So, that's the reason that staff is asking for that piece to be included, as well as this Commission and the City of Meridian City Council have made it pretty clear that Ada County enclaves are something that we want to address at the front end, so that we can avoid having these enclaves in the area of impact where at all possible. So, those are the two main reasons that we are asking for that -- that the City of Meridian ordinance requires it be included and direction from the Commission and the Council that these enclaves be avoided at the front end of the process. Looking at the staff report, the original staff report, which was submitted September 15th, there is four other -- I think four or five other items here to point out. Starting on page 10, there are some special considerations that we pointed out for the plat. They have requested reduced -- excuse me -- reduced lot frontages as a part of the planned development, the Conditional Use Permit. They have requested that they have at least 37 feet of frontage on the street -- straight street sections and 33 on cul-de-sacs. This is a deviation that would be allowed under the planned development, as long as they provide the amenities, which they have. The reduced lot sizes that they are asking for, standard is 6,500 square feet, they are asking for 5,250. It's about a 20 percent reduction. Block length. They have asked for a couple of the blocks to exceed the maximum and a couple of the blocks to be below the minimum. The minimum blocks, there is two of them, they are both right up here at the north end of the project and those are just, I think, a little over 250 feet long. Largely, they need to go below the minimum 500 in order to maximize the connections on the north end of the project here. Let's see. The Ustick Road right of way is a pretty standard comment, so I won't deal with that. The street buffers, landscape street buffers, are required to be 25 feet on Ustick and they are showing the 25 feet of street landscape buffer there. They have -- the plat that's on the screen here is a revised plat from what was originally shown and one of the changes is Arch Street -- what they have proposed as Arch Street and that is a slight change in alignment from the first plat to make this a straight connection, instead of having a jog. So, that was done at the request of staff. I think in terms of the stub street issues, I think that was really the only one to point out. The out parcel on page 12, I have mentioned that, that's the Smitchger parcel. The driveways for the lots that -- the lot here, Lot 1 Block 12, that has the existing house on it, since Granger is a r esidential c ollector, i n t he future w e h ave a sked t hem t o d emonstrate h ow t hat would take access internally, so that is something we have asked for much later in the process, though. I don't know how much of that is really up for discussion tonight. On page 14, Item number ten -- or, I'm sorry, Item number eleven, there -- we would ask that the applicant address how -- just to clarify, if the street -- if the sidewalks in the project are attached or detached. There is a conflict between the landscape plan that they submitted and the preliminary plat as to whether or not they are attached or detached, so we'd just like that clarified for the record tonight. And, then finally, I think on the South Slough pathway -- and I'll go to the second sheet here of their plat, the South Slough, which is also called the Finch Lateral, comes from the south and then just bisects this corner of the property. They are showing this entire drain as a Meridian Planning & Zoning j~~' ` ~ December 4, 2003 Pa e 8 of 83 - ~ g ~~.~> ~ separate common lot in the project, which is kind of blended with this common lot on `::,; Tahiti Drive and those -- the City's Comprehensive Plan does show amulti-use pathway s .~ along the South Slough. This will be the first project that we have seen that abuts that ~~ South Slough, so we have recommended, since the Comp Plan shows it, that they `b~: include it. However, Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District did submit a letter back in July that s tated t hat t hat i s n of a cceptable. They a re c ailing i t a lateral. T ypically, t he -; ;4, - irrigation district says no -- no pathways along laterals, only along drains. Ithink it's a t A -:~. question of definition of this facility, is it a drain, is it a lateral. It has an 80-foot wide ~~ ~`'~ easement on it. So, I guess since this is a later phase, I think staff would still like to see ~: ~'~? H k- r~~ at least the easements provided there so that it can be reserved. If necessary, that ,:;~n~ could be vacated in the future. The parks department, when it comes to the point of ~ connecting those, at least preserve that connection. So, if it's not shown, I have just ,~~;:~' tonight talked with the applicant and they are possibly open to just extending this Lot 13 :° up t o the north, a xtend t he boundary a l ittle b it u p t o t he n orth t o a ccommodate t he ~r ~~~'° ' pathway outside of Nampa-Meridian's easement. So, that is an option that -- the parks S, ,:_, department did not comment on that pathway. We would like also for the applicant to ,_ comment on this connection on Granger. It d oes -- there has been some dispute ~;~;, %'h~ ' between the owners of this lot and Georgianne Milks, which is a five acre out parcel that ~ shows better here on this first sheet, as to the property line and whether or not Granger is encroaching into this parcel or not. Ithink there have been two different surveys <?° ~ ` done, hired by both parties, so I think -- I have not had an update on that, but would ask ~ ~ the applicant to clarify where that issue is As well as that it does appear the right of w way for Granger encroaches into this lot in Perkins-Brown a little bit, but Perkins-Brown ~~' is not shown as an owner in this project, they haven't given consent for this application. ~'~ So, if that right of way does encroach into that lot, then, we, obviously, need to get that ,„~~~ consent. And, then, on item number six, the planned development, really not going to go over anything on this project -- I mean on this application, other than to point out the .,~, required amenities. Here is the -- one of the open space lots on the south end of the ~{ , project. It doesn't reflect it, but they have shown a basketball court there and, then, ,~, , here is the park that is further north, shows some of the landscaping, some of the micro fi4qy~' ~~~~ ~ PP path connections there. We have asked for a site plan to be shown on how a reduced : ;, ~~~~ house size can be -- h ow a plot plan can fit on a couple of these lots that are here where the Milks Lateral -- that's this straight line coming across the middle here, has a 1, pretty wide easement on it and it does restrict the frontage to around 50 feet. We have '~ certainly s een p lot p lans i n Woodbridge i n p articular w here we h ave - - a nd H eritage ~ E, Commons where they have shown houses on 50 foot of frontage, but we would like to see where that's going to -- demonstrate how that lot's going to be buildable with that easement coming so far into the lot. So, I guess just to summarize, I think the main -~:' points for you to -- in terms of disagreement between staff and the applicant is on the annexation a nd z oning i s o n t he o ut p arcel a nd on t he p reliminary p lat. T he w ater <~~~ extension from Eagle, which I didn't talk about, but Becky will, and Nampa-Meridian ~~~'° Irrigation District encroachment agreement, Ithink -- I didn't mention that, but there is just --Ithink they would like to submit an encroachment agreement later than what we y'4 ,,,, ~: would prefer. We'd like to see it earlier in the process, so I think we just have a little disagreement there. And then that South Slough pathway. So, I think there is four ``'' ` items that -- that there are some differences of opinion on between staff and the ra ~r ;,: ~~~~ Meridian Planning & Zoning >?.~ ~w December 4, 2003 Page 9 of 83 }~ applicant. We have -- we have recommended approval. We think that their -- this project was submitted over a year ago to -- they were requesting a Comp Plan amendment change to remove this entire acreage from Boise -- from Meridian's area of t'` impact and put it into Boise's area of impact and they were denied that request, in part, because they were told at that point that the City of Meridian was going to serve this area soon and if they could find a path of annexation, then, it would be brought in and M' that was one of the reasons. It is a fairly developed area. If you go further down Ustick, the majority of that is urbanized for the most part. There are certainly pockets, but it is an area that while on the fringe of our area of impact is very much built out in the larger area. So, as long as some of these issues can be worked out with services, we are supportive of the project being annexed and so I think -- do you have anything ~'~ else? I guess at this point staff will stand for any questions. Fa Borup: Okay. Any questions from any of the Commissioners? I might have a couple. And I don't know -- one was on the water extension. Did -- Bruce, did you have any comment on that at this time or did you want to wait until on? My assumption was that you'd like to see a loop system. Was that the reasoning there? Freckleton: Chairman Borup, Members of the Commission, some of you might remember back to when we had the Comp Plan amendment coming through last winter. `'~ It was something that I brought up then that we needed to have. We were out on the ~~~~ ragged edge as far as being able to provide water to the subdivision with just a single feed. Our comfort level is not real good and, like I said, that was last -- last winter when ~`'''_ ° the Comp Plan amendment came through. We have had alot -- a lot of development in the area over the summer and when we reevaluate the model, which we have done ~~ ` recently, the need to have the loop is even greater now. We are working on trying to w ~ acquire a site for a new well up in the area. However, well sites are taking longer to get ~~ , and longer to license and get drilled and on line and so by having a tighter network with :~~r, loops and -- you know, you just get a lot better hydraulic distribution of your water in ~`~`~' your system and can be able to provide the level of service that we -- we strive for. So, the City has -- in our new budget year we have identified some weak areas in the ``' system and we have got some projects that the City is going to be taking on and the applicant and I talked before the m eeting that some of our projects may benefit this +y}~ area. We have got some projects that we are going to be doing in Eagle Road, so I know some of their concern was the bore under Eagle Road and, you know, like I said, '~"~°' some of our projects may benefit them to where that huge expense wouldn't land on ~~~~ . ~a them. So, I think that between them and the timing of their phrases and the timing of <; ~ our projects and just the demand on the system, what I think we can do is just work with them of as each phase comes in. We will evaluate them to the system. It may be possible to serve their first phase from Ustick Road off of a dead end line and, then, deeper into the subdivision the loop would have to be completed, but it's just a huge -_ timing issue at this point and, like I said, with all the development that's going on, it's hard to pin down and say, yes, you could do your first phase, because, you know, ='~° ~F~' somebody else may build before them and I can't guarantee capacity in the system for -r this development when we have others that are coming in, so -- 1 _;;~ ~~;a `~ Meridian Planning & Zoning ~+ `''~ December 4, 2003 "~' Page 10 of 83 ;?;'"' x° Borup: So, you do have --you do have some concern just in the first phase you're ~~~~ saying, then? ..,._ 3. ,_,, y -; Freckleton: We do. We d o. But, like I s aid, we have to -- the timing of the city r~~ projects, the timing of other projects in the area, and the timing of their project, we are just going to have to work with them and -- Borup: Okay. a~ Freckleton: -- see what we can do. ~~, Borup: Another question for Brad and that was on -- I think I maybe answered it, but on the reduced -- you had mentioned on the reduced frontages, 37 feet. I only found one lot that -- were there more than one lot that even needed that stipulation? I saw Lot 8, -i` Block 10. Hawkins-Clark: Right. ::;~. ~,, ,,.; Borup: I didn't see any others that even -- Hawkins-Clark: Yeah. Craig Hood, the other tanner who was also workin on thi p s 9 project, dust told me that he believes that's correct, that it is just one lot. That's 37. F, Borup: One lot. So, that whole request for reduction is just for that one lot? Hawkins-Clark: You know, they have to request the minimum -- Borup: Right. No. I understand. Hawkins-Clark: Yeah. Borup: Okay. And I did note that the others -- the reduction on the cut-de-sac ones `~~ were -- I think on that south cut-de-sac and those lots range from 84 to over 11,000 feet. So, the lots were good size, even though the frontages were reduced. Okay. That's '~ all I had. Would the applicant like to make their presentation? Unless -- any other Commissioners have anything else that -- McKay: Becky McKay, Engineering Solutions, business address 150 East Akins, Suite ~' B, Eagle. I'm representing the applicant in this matter. I will kind of give you a brief >~ overview of the project. What we have here is the particular property that you guys, as `•~~' Brad indicated, looked at a few months ago and considered removing it from the cY' Meridian area of impact and allowing it to go to the City of Boise. Our project, as I ~#;.~; indicated before, was split by the Boise area of impact line right here. The Council -'~~ believed that it was in the best interest of the City of Meridian that this remain -- this property remain in Meridian's impact area, due to the fact that the Public Works ~~" '° Department has went to a great expense to extend that South Slough trunk out to this ~, .~. ~.. ~ __ ;,< r~l ~~ Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 11 of 83 `~, = area. So, what we did is the Boise portion, we processed through the City of Boise. ~~~ Granger is a residential collector that comes off of Cloverdale Road. The -- I extended ~:; ~ that collector up through the center of this. There is no front-on housing, with the ' exception of this existing dwelling and, then, it comes up across from Providence Place ~' Subdivision, so it is in alignment with the street on the north side of Ustick. So we do ~~ , have a continuous collector, which, as you well know, adds capacity to our ' transportation system by minimizing the amount of traffic that's on the arterial, due to `A; - the fact that traffic can cut through a particular section in this fashion. On your Comprehensive Plan this property that you see in the preliminary plat is designated _`, medium density residential, that's three to eight dwelling units per acre, and the portion `'~~ that is -- adjoins Eagle Road is mixed use regional. Now, that -- we included that in our ~~z annexation, because that is the point that we are contiguous with the city limits and so :~ those property owners were kind enough to enter into this application so that we could r=ti , annex them, zone them, yet they have no particular plans for development of those two x parcels at this time. I think staff has indicated that they are comfortable with those ,t ~`:I parcels being annexed and zoned C-G, with a development agreement that would r.' require conditional use permits for those particular uses. Those properties are along ~~~i that Eagle Road corridor. That mixed regional does allow for, you know, like arterial -~~ type commercial, big box users, also office and I think it talks about minimizing the ~4~1 amount of curb cuts out on Eagle Road, within interior connection and roadways that go -~°°I kind of parallel to Eagle Road. So, when those properties have a purchaser, I believe _ ~ they will have to come forth and then present that plan to you guys and the Council. , ,.,. So, I don't see that as roblematic. We have re uested R-8 de i P q s nation, which is a 9 ' medium densit zone. y Our densit that we are re uestin is 3. Thirt -thr Y q g y ee dwelling units er acre. That s our ross densit . P g y Our net is 4.23. So, as you can well see, we ;' ~ are on the low end of that density scale when we are looking at the medium density designation of three to eight. We have got about 90. Twenty-nine acres in the ~~~` `~3 residential a nd as B rad indicated, about 24. Twenty-three a Gres i n the C-G portion. '~~ We went with a planned unit development on this particular propert due to the fact that y , one, it is large in size and we needed the flexibility in order to provide differing product 'Y' lines. We have got product lines as you can see by the size of these lots, about 5,250 square feet up here in this area adjoining Ustick Road, so up at the arterial our higher density exists. As we come closer into the interior of the project, the lots go up to about 6,820 and they range from about 7,500 in this area and, then, they go to 87 and 9,100 range in through here. So, we do have four different product lines that will accommodate four different types of homes in size and price to, obviously, make this available to a larger portion of the population and different socioeconomic groups. We have a centrally located amenity here that's 2. Thirty-seven acres in size. As Brad indicated, we are proposing a clubhouse and swimming pool. Also, a parking area, in the event that some of the residents would want to drive. There is no parking along the collector roadway. Therefore, we want to be able to accommodate some type of parking in here. Also, that would allow handicapped people to drive a van there and access this facility also. We have pathways that meander and micro paths that extend Fr,. out to make this as accessible as possible. We also show a volleyball court. As we come down here, we have got pedestrian pathways that will link up in this area and, then, we have another pocket park down here. As Brad indicated, we propose a Meridian Planning & Zoning };'' December 4, 2003 - .~ Page 12 of 83 r~~F basketball court. This is the South Slough right here. Nampa-Meridian calls it the r,+, Finch Lateral. They have indicated due to the fact that it is a live water ditch, they are ->:~ opposed to your multi-use pathway that is shown on your parks comprehensive plan. So, our only alternative is -- either, one, as Brad indicated, to provide some type of an easement to the City, so that in the future if negotiations with Nampa-Meridian are - successful, that that pathway could be constructed or, two, to try to slide the pathway and have it just adjoin that easement. They cannot prohibit us from building a pathway -`~ if we are outside the easement. This South Slough is a very nice water feature. We ~~ are proposing to leave it open. It appears that there had been a lot of cattle out there over the past few years, therefore, the banks are beat down. It's a real nice gentle slope, it kind of looks like a nice little creek and doesn't resemble a standard lateral that we typically see. This area here is about 2-3 acres. We have varying areas throughout the project to accommodate storm drainage. We have the Milks Lateral that traverses right through here. This is the historical location and that's where we are piping that facility. I believe staffs concern was -- on our drawing we show the existing -~x facility, we show the existing easements, then, we indicate that that will be placed in ~_~ pipe. So, when the pipe is located adjoining the roadway and, then, running like this, .'~ ~, ~ then these lots are considerably larger than they appear on the preliminary plat, but I x .#, will make sure that they have adequate area to build on. Concerning access we have <' ~ `~~ , Briarwood that adjoins us here. We only have 20 feet of right of way. Therefore, our only connection can be pedestrian. We also have a very large tree right at the end, +`;~ which we moved our pathway to miss, but maintain that interconnection. We are ~~ connecting h ere o n the G ranger c ollector. We have a I ocal s treet c onnection h ere. ~:~~-~~~~ -.~ Clover Meadows adjoins us on the south boundary so there are no connections there. ~. We have a stub street here and then a stub street here to the west, so some future interconnection to Eagle Road. The contention at the highway district was over this Duane Drive connection. This subdivision, the Perkins-Brown was developed in 1971. _ This is a straight shot, substandard, kind of rural road with no curb, gutter, or sidewalk. -_ I think there is approximately between 21 and 24 f eet of pavement. Therefore, no ~ ' I matter what we do in our planning, you're going to find traffic going out that way from °~ ~'~ ° ' this area here. So, the highway district struggled We had two meetings and the Y ~$°~ . struggled with how to -- how to keep that traffic from going through the subdivision, even though it kept them -- our traffic did not exceed the threshold of 1,000 vehicle trips per y''~ ' day, they still were concerned about the integrity of the neighborhood, and I agreed with { .~ them. So, thereafter, what they have asked us to do is we will dedicate that right of - ~ way, we will build the roadway, but we will chokers here at this intersection and then this will be gated off, but yet, the gate would allow emergency vehicle access and then it would also allow pedestrian bicycle. So we would still get that interconnection, but we ~~-` r~.s wouldn't get the cut-through traffic. So, that will force the traffic out to the collector roadway, where w e i ntend i t t o g o, b ecause w e d on't have front-on h ousing a nd t he conflict that we typically have with a local street. Brad wanted me to address this issue right through here. We had dealt with the Mittleiders, they are an out parcel here. I'm stubbing to them. Their property is a perfect width for redevelopment. This stub street will come in, go up and be just perfect. Obviously, the city will require that we stub services to that parcel, so it will be prime for development. The contention was -- it's like a 1901 plat, in the early 1900s. The dimensions on the plat do not scale correctly i" Meridian Planning & Zoning +~~.:'; =' December 4, 2003 Page 13 of 83 ~~ ~ and so there have been different interpretations from the surveyors on what is the true .~~ dimensions of this particular parcel. Granger -- there is an old granger right of way that exists that comes across here and sto s and then there is 20 feet of ri ht f th t ~,; p g o way a comes up to about there and stops. There is 30 on this side, 20 on that side. So, what tx~~ I did with Mittleiders, since we could not come to an agreement or compromise -- and we did work diligently to do so. We have made the dimensions of the parcel the dimensions that the Mittleiders believe they own. So, we were very conservative and -- not to be a bad neighbor, we went -- and this is 660 -- I believe 660. 2. The previous - dimension 642 I believe. Now, the problem we have Is we have got to come down Into this Derkheimer parcel here -- that's the previous owner. There is existing right of way 30 feet here, 20 feet here. On that particular plat -- and I can submit that into the public :4; record. It's clearly shown. It's called county road right of way. There are two types of }'''`" ' line work on that plat. There is a solid dark line shown for Duane Drive and then there ;'~ are two dashes in a long line showing the 30-foot easement here and a 30-foot easement across here. When that plat was recorded, the way state law read at the time it was recorded that right of way is dedicated and we have had a lot of controversy ,., ~ , over the, what, 13 years I have been doing this on when they call it an easement, is it , ;" really right of way. According to the highway district, yes, it is right of way. It's an unopened, unimproved right of way that they have the ability to open at an such time { y they believe it necessary. So, I have been working with the Altmans, because I don't want t o b e a b ad n eighbor a nd w e h ave b een t alking t o t hem, we h ave t his s taked, y ; a., because they said, well, we'd like to see where that right of way is, how much area it takes up. W e did that. W e also offered them some compensation because they believe that they have paid taxes on that right of way easement over the past few years, so we have been working with them to make that happen. The highway district was comfortable w ith t he s ituation. I believe what w as s tated for t he p ublic r ecord, you know, it's our responsibility to work with them to get that accomplished and they didn't ~~~~' have a problem with it. So, they were satisfied they were comfortable they approved , , us. We have got a really good project here, I believe. We have got a couple of minor issues. One being the issue of the enclave. If this parcel -- I guess, in my personal opinion, if this parcel had been split out recently, if this person had owned this property and had split it out and we excluded him from our plat, then, I could see that the city ' would say, no, that needs to be included and we have had that happen in other instances. But this was split out six years ago. Split out by the previous owner of that >~~ property. And Mr. Smitchger, if you recall, was at our area of impact hearing. He was the gentleman -- the elderly gentleman that indicated he didn't want to be anybody's ~~ area of impact, he didn't want to be in Boise's, he didn't want to be in Meridian's, he didn't want to be annexed by anybody. Borup: So, that was -- in '98 that was split? McKay: '97. ~,~: _~ Borup: '97. =,. ,:~_ 4; .. ~,~ t . .. `~' Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 14 of 83 ~f v ~~t McKay: So, I guess how can I force an individual to consent to have his property ~4, annexed? He wants to just remain the way he is, in the county. He knows his taxes ~-° will go up if he's annexed and that's why I believe he testified that he -- his preference was he not be annexed by anyone. He be left alone. When I worked at the county we F :y' had instances like this continuously. We would find that if someone wanted to build a i T'r r house -- like years ago on this property, they wouldn't loan on the 40 or the 37 acres, E _,~ ~ they'd only -- the bank would only loan on the one acre. So, they'd go in and do a ti 7~ ~ segrega on request and give that another parcel number, build their house on it, and, '~~ r then, over time they sell the house off with the acre, then, they sell the rest of the zr :: i property. So, I mean it's just something -- we can't solve all the problems on the illegal divisions that have taken place. But one thing, when a property is illegally divided, the 3 . ~ only way to clean that up is to subdivide it. When you subdivide a piece of property, ~~~~ ~ you, therefore, make it legal. Mr. Smitchger does have an option -- this is an R-1 zone ~ ~~~ , which adjoins him. He could rezone his property, if he wanted to, to an R-1, which, 'rl then, he would be in conformance with the dimensional standards. But I'm just ~~, of powerless t o f orce h im t o b e i ncluded i n t his a nnexation. I f h e w as t he s eller, you ~_ know, we could say, well, you know, this is what you have to do in order to do make this -~~~ ;,, project happen, but he is not the seller. Borup: I think that's understood. The staff question was clarification whether that was ~:~;: a legal split or an illegal. It sounds like you're saying that was an illegal split. ~~ McKay: We went down and we researched it and we confirmed -- we got a copy of the `'~~' `: deed that -- the deed is dated 1997 and it was an RUT zone -- or an R-2 zone at the ;;; ;~ time, which is a five acre minimum lot size and he's one acre Borup: And who was -- who was the owner of the entire parcel at that time when it was split? ~~~`= McKay: Smitchger. Borup: So, he's the one that did the illegal split? ?~' McKay: Yes, sir. Borup: And, then, he sold -- McKay: To Victory 37. Borup: How -- in -- McKay: '97. Borup: In '97? McKay: Yes. J '~' Meridian Planning & Zoning i ' December 4, 2003 Page 15 of 83 Borup: Okay. And Victory 37 didn't check in to make sure they were buying a legally split property, then. a McKay: I guess not. I wasn't involved in that division. Borup: Okay. .; ``~ McKay: So, in my comments back to the staffs report, I guess I stated under item five, ;r:~? the annexation and zoning, that it is our preference to leave that South Slough open, to ~:~~~ not pipe it. And, then, the third issue of contention is the issue of water on Ustick. At ~S~n. d: °~ the City Council it was discussed -- if you recall it was discussed here -- the fact that United Water has a 12-inch mainline in Ustick and in Cloverdale. Boise City has a sewer line here. Boise City has a sewer line located right there. And both the City of Boise and United Water indicated that they could service this property. The question arose -- the City of Meridian's ability to service the property and it was staffs contention that with the extension of the South Slough, the boring of Eagle Road, that it was just a ~~~ matter of time before that sewer line was available which is correct. We are brin in g 9 =~~~` the sewer from Eagle Road -- from the east side of Eagle Road along that slough and ~~ ~, into the development. The issue of water was discussed and Mr. Watson at the City ~;~~~_ Council indicated that he believed that the 12-inch Ustick water main could supply service to the property, because one of our arguments was we may not be able to get r- that water eastward over to the site. In my client's negotiations with those property :°~-:~ owners for the sewer easement, the issue of water has been discussed. So, the ability may be there to bring that water on eastward. But I guess I am a little bit disappointed when we were told that the 12-inch was adequate to serve this project and the Council made their decision to keep this parcel within the city area of impact based on that information. ~,.~ Borup: And what year was that? `y McKay: That was last year. Wasn't it last year? ~~;i;- Borup: But -- okay. ~~:. McKay: Now, the other issue -- Borup: Was that accurate what Bruce had said, though? Other projects have come on line since then? . McKay: That's true. That's true. Now, the other thing I want to bring up is we do have '-~~~ an eight-inch main -- United Water eight-inch main here at Granger. They stubbed it ~~, right here at the end of the pavement. They also -- where this Red Feather No. 1 is under construction, they are requiring that we stub an eight inch water main right there. So, Bruce said he doesn't believe it's possible for the two entities to connect their systems, but, nonetheless, that water is there. So, I just wanted to kind of throw that ~t ~ ~~ ~~,,?+~~; . Y Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 r c,,,, Page 16 of 83 .' out for discussion. In the original staff report there was a discussion about the ~`,~ applicant extension of Granger, Palm, and Duane. We are, obviously, going to need ~~" the D uane D rive a xtension s truck, b ecause i t i s a r estricted a mergency a ccess o nly. On the encroachment agreements, we have always in the past submitted those P4 ; ~' ~,,,, agreements prior to signature on the final plat. The reason being that Nampa-Meridian will not consider preparation of an encroachment agreement until you submit plans. ~~` ~aij So, if it's required that we submit the agreement with the final plat, it usually takes us `- anywhere from two to three months to obtain that agreement from Nampa-Meridian, ~~="; because they send the plans out to their consultant for his review and that's -- well I s ~` , have had plans in there now for two months. So, it causes a real time crunch and ~, obviously, your plat doesn't get signed if you don't have an encroachment agreement. ~:r-; . So, I don't understand why they are jumping that up to that earlier step. On Item 18 is , , ~t ~~ the Smitchger issue and I guess, like I stated before, we can't be held responsible for '` something that we had no part of that was done six years ago and that Mr. Smitchger is ~~ not going to consent to the annexation. I'm convinced of that. Item 19 is the vacation ,':` . There was a discussion in the staff report about vacating that 20 feet of right of way, we ~,~;~ got a short 20 feet of right of way. We will also be exchanging right of way, so I wanted ~~`= that just clarified with the Granger right of way here, so instead of the collector roadway ~~i`'" going straight, the collector is going to this way. So, ACHD discussed that we would do ~,'~ ' what they call an exchange. So, they are still getting their right of way, they are getting ~:" ', their collector, it's just in a different location and I have done that before out off of ,~~, ~` ' Shamrock Street. Sample floor plans. The staff had a few concerns about the 50-foot ~" ,, lots. You guys have seen 50-foot lots in projects such as Woodbridge. Here are some ~ .; examples of some elevations and floor plans for some of the homes that have been ~; ''~ constructed on those 50-foot lots. We wouldn't propose the 50-foot lots if we didn't Y" `~ ~ believe that they were buildable. They are detached. We have no attached dwellings. There is a market for those. A lot of elderly people like the smaller lots. They have ~ ~`;i ~ less lawn to maintain and they are popular and we want to provide a wide spectrum of k~~~_~~~'~~ homes and lot sizes. Do you have any questions? 4~~ *7 x Borup: Questions from the Commissioners? You had mentioned the lot sizes on the ~~ ~ o~ :~ 50-foot lots and, you're correct, we have seen a lot of that. I don't -- the lots that I have . r; ~'>~ the concern on was the same ones that staff had mentioned, maybe those along the ~ Milks Lateral where you have got, you know, a 20-foot building area at the front or so. ~. ~~ ~, Have any -- ~ ;;~J McKay: Like I told you -- , ~~ a , Borup: Well -- and Idon't -- it's going to be a problem, but any lot can have a house ~ `~ ~~ designed for it, so something can be done. ~; :}~ McKay: Right. And, like I said, it looks odd because of that -- ~~ , ~S Borup: Well, no, I understand, but it's still -- it's still an easement through there, isn't it? ~~~'~ McKay: No, because I'm going to relocate the easement. iKW:.. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 17 of 83 Borup: Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. I misunderstood. ~': McKay: Yeah. I guess I wasn't very clear on that. That was my point. The easement ~{'~~'' -- I have to show it in its historical location, the waterway. - Borup: So, the easement will move over to the property line? `'' McKay: The easement -- I'm going to -- that's why I have these separate lots all along ~~ here to accommodate that -- that irrigation line and move the easement north, which, ,_ then, those lots will be enlarged. So, my response to the staff is those lots will be Eke enlarged when we pipe that and move the easement north. It just looks -- ~~''~ Borup: It will move north to the property line? ;~~ McKay: Yes, sir. r~: _ ~~~ Borup: Okay. ;~, 4~'; McKay: Out on this common lot here. Borup: Okay. i ~~~~ '" :'~~~ i ~`~~~~'~~~~~:~'~ McKay: Yes, sir. ~~ ~~~,~ Borup: Okay. N o o they q uestions, C ommissioners? I s t here anything s tall m gybe :1 wanted to bring up while Becky is up here? S. ;~~; a Hawkins-Clark: We are fine with waiting until after all the comments have been made. { ._, , ~° Borup: Okay. Okay. Thank you. ~~yi~ , McKay: Thank you. Borup: Okay. This is the time -- portion for any public questions, input, or testimony. ~T `` So, we'd like to invite anyone up that would like to testify at this time. Do we have ~'' anyone? E :" ?`~ Belcher: Chairman Borup, Commissioners, my name is Fitzroy Belcher. I reside at 2920 Duane Drive and I'm also the president of the Perkins-Brown Homeowners U _. `~~~' Association. So, be it for 24 houses. I have some concerns. I think you folks received correspondence from us expressing our concerns and we have a few more ~r, that have come up this evening. One is Eagle Road access, when that will come ~~'' about. The question of the enclave-- will be a 60-acre enclave of county completely ~, : surrounded by Meridian and Rnica to thA north nncc th~+ r,rocon+ o nrr,hlom'~ V..., -, "°. ,~ ,,, ask N ~~ .> .ti"' i Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 18 of 83 ~,... ;~: Y - 1~' }~` `,I "I =~ {~~~ ~~., y~ ~~~ ,: ,, ~";4i k expressed earlier that you didn't like to see enclaves if you could get away with it at the planning time. Borup: And I think part of that was the size of the enclave also. Belcher: On the size. Okay. Borup: And it doesn't flow as well. Historically, in the past the City has not -- I'm not familiar that the City's ever forced an annexation, especially of a developed area of that size, but -- Belcher: I have a concern with the statement I think by staff on the Duane Drive opening. I think if you read the motion by Ada County Highway District, it does not say anything in there about being -- any party being able to open it in the future. The only thing that I recall them saying in the discussion was that it would be up to the people in the Perkins-Brown to open it, if they felt that they needed additional access. I have a concern with our lots are all two and a half and five acres, most everyone has livestock of some sort, horses, some people raise some steers, some people have coats, sheep, and we are going to be putting -- the back of my property -- I'll have three houses abutting my property and we now have a barbed wire fence. What are we going to have back there when we get a subdivision back there? Borup: As far as a fence? The subdivision will be putting in a six inch -- a six-foot fence. Belcher: Wood, probably. And who is going to maintain our side of the fence, which is going to turn gray and ugly within two years. Another question I have is on -- that Becky stated that they are going to move the easement on the Milks Lateral. Will the pipe stay in the same place or will it be moved and, if so, where are we -- how will that affect our head gate for our irrigation. That's my concerns. Thank you. Borup: Okay. We will get answers to those questions. Zaremba: I can comment on one of them. The ACHD report on page eleven -- I will quote what ACRD says to us: The gate will be removed when a formal request, parenthesis, by anyone, i.e., the City of Meridian, a citizen, the developer, a resident of Perkins-Brown Subdivision, et cetera, closed parenthesis, is received by the district to open Duane Drive public right of way. So, that's what ACRD provided to us. Borup: And I question whether that's -- if that was what they meant or that it means they may look at it at that time and still have another hearing and -- Zaremba: And there is no time attached to it either. Borup: No. r ;.k Meridian Planning & Zoning • • ` December 4, 2003 °~ `' ~`~' Page 19 of 83 r ~~s=~~,~~' Zaremba: I mean that could -- ~~~1_ ,_ ~ ,. ~= ~'~ Borup: Twenty years from now. ~~ Zaremba: It's making it sound like I could walk over there and ask for it to be opened R~'``""° and that could happen tomorrow and that doesn't sound like that's what the intent was, - I'm certain. We must have some authority modify that or clarify it, anyhow. But, anyhow, that's where that statement came from. Borup: Yeah. That was all from ACHD. "'YsT Zaremba: We don't necessarily agree with it. Borup: Do we have anyone else that would like to come forward? Tyvand: Hi. My name is Diana Tyvand and I live at 4240 East Green Meadow Drive. That's in the Clover Meadows Subdivision that abuts the southern boundary of the Red Feather No. 2 Subdivision. My neighbor Gary Peva was going to come here tonight, _~` but he had a death in the family and couldn't come, so I believe you have his letter up ~,, there to read and I just kind of want to speak to that, too, and say that we are concerned ,.;u on that we keep -- have access to our irrigation ditch. You know, we have lived there .., I since 1979 and we use the irrigation for our one acre lots in that subdivision and it looks like when they surveyed, they -- the boundary has changed. Our ditch was -- you .i know, our boundary line was north of the ditch and it looks like it's bumping to the south of the ditch now and so I guess we spoke with Becky McKay and I believe the _ .w>~ developers and I guess they have come to an agreement of some sort and we just want '~~i to make sure that we still have access to that ditch and that the property line remain where it is, you know, with the fence now. So, I just wanted to kind of concur with what ~~~' Gary had said in his letter. ~~ .: `~ Borup: Okay. And we will get some comment on that, but the irrigation water will be still delivered at his historical -- !;~~~~ Tyvand: And we want it to be an open access still like it is. ~`: Borup: But depending on where the ditch is located may affect that and I'm not sure on what the situation is on your boundary line.

Freckleton: I just wanted to, for the record, indicate that we did get a letter from Gary Peva, dated 12/4. Borup: Yes. We have that in our packet. Freckleton: You should. Zaremba: Actually, from Gary and Sue Peva. Freckleton: Correct. Zaremba: Along with several others. Not to totally answer all of the irrigation questions, but -- along with the previous speaker, even if the applicant reroutes -- pipes and reroutes an irrigation through their own property, I believe the rule is they -- by the time they get to the edge of their property, they have to have brought it back to where you historically got it. I believe that's the correct interpretation. So, even they did loop- de-loops within their own property, the end of it has to be where it comes into your property, the same as it always has been. Now, whether that's a legal property line, as the next lady suggested, that's something else that needs to be clarified. Borup: Was there anyone else? Come forward. M. Tyvand: My name is Mike Tyvand. I live with Diana Tyvand on the south side of this proposed subdivision and I submitted a letter and what I'm mostly concerned about is we are going to have increased traffic on Ustick and Cloverdale and -- and what we kind of not discussed is there is no pedestrian route out of our subdivision across all of this to get to Ustick school there. I think that would probably be a good idea if we could have some pedestrian route there. We talked about Briarwood and some of the other pedestrian walkways, but there is none coming from the south, so that's mostly what I'm concerned about. Borup: Question on that. Do you have someone in your subdivision that would be willing to do a pedestrian pathway to this subdivision? M. Tyvand: Well, we will find out on our side. We also have a street ending right there where the Georgia Milks Subdivision is and that's kind of unclear of what's going to happen in there. And I think the indication was that there is going to be a road going north from that existing butt there. Well, that won't provide any pedestrian route either. So, I think -- r ~~.~ ' Meridian Planning & Zoning ssw' December 4, 2003 '' ~ F'` Page 21 of 83 s ~~ Borup: Which location are you referring to? There is a light -- should be a laser -- E~z. M. Tyvand: This lot right here. We are right here. Well, we are actually about right here. But our subdivision ends right here. And so talking about this six-foot fence, it's going to be encompassing the whole subdivision here. ~~' Zaremba: Sir, can you pull the microphone that's behind you closer to you, if you're going to be over at the map. M. Tyvand: So, this is going to block off any pedestrian access from the south here up toward Ustick school there up in the corner and I'm not sure whether the subdivision -- a` proposed subdivision abuts Ustick school or not, but it comes mighty close. And, also, -r for any of these individuals that may want to go south with bicycle or pedestrian, they can't do that either, if there is no -- if there is no pedestrian route here. So, our subdivision ends right there and, you know, any of these routes could be a possible walkway, I think. s` Borup: And I think the developer would probably be glad to do that, but there has to be a pedestrian walkway in your subdivision for them to tie into. E ~`~ T. Tyvand: Okay. ~.. ~-~ -- Borup: You can understand that. ~:.. T• .A ~~'~,. T. Tyvand: Sure. Sure.

And the interconnectivity is always something we look at and that's an ='~ important aspect. ,:;~ T. Tyvand: Okay. Borup: Okay. Yes. a Brown: For the record, Kent Brown, 3161 Springwood, Meridian. Just the issue of requiring the developer to annex property that has been previously divided, is a poor f~; precedent, as far as I'm concerned. I agree with the argument that Becky provided, if it was b eing s ubdivided c urrently i t would m ake m ore s ense. The e ntity t hat has t he power to do that is the City of Meridian and if they want it to be annexed, it's less than five acres and they can do it and I know that they choose not to do that, but they have that authority and power and it's not greater than five acres and I would hope that that would be the condition for all developments in the valley. `~k<i;, Zaremba: I agree with that philosophy, but I'd actually like to ask the question the other ~; way around, perhaps of legal counsel. Can we annex a portion of a property that has ```"~ not been legally split? ~. r Holinka: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, I'm actually not sure about that .~; part of it, whether you can annex the -- if it has not been legally split. It is correct that `4`I you can -- the City can annex a parcel that's less than five acres. But I would have to ;' ~ get back to you, actually, on the question of whether -- ? Y: Zaremba: Well, I guess my question is if it's not been legally split, is this still part of the same property? I think that's the point that staff is making. Y ~;~I Brown: And when you look at the state code with regards to annexation, it makes no provision there for the division, other than the five acres that I'm aware of. And -- I },;. "',. mean cities can choose to annex or not annex the properties, but the provisions that L` ` ~ require -- ~; ~ Zaremba: I guess what I'm not understanding is I feel whatever the property was, if it's not legally split, we have to consider the whole piece of property, which, if staff is right, still contains this other acre that's not a separate parcel legally. ~:-l~r Borup: Well, normally, the time when that issue comes up is when there is any type of -~= development, someone is trying to get a building permit. I would assume, in this case, if someone applied for a building permit that would be researched and they would not be granted a building permit. Brown: And that would be true of what Ada County would do to that person to make that happen. When -- the nine years I worked for the City of Boise and there was an illegal division, we required the person to go through a subdivision, even for one lot, if =r,' ,, ; •5 Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 23 of 83 they were illegally divided something. I mean, so the city in the future can have the ability to do Borup: You mean after the fact you did that. Brown: After the fact. Borup: And how did you enforce that? Brown: Well, we wouldn't give them a building permit. '?-~' Borup: Right. But if they weren't -- in this case, the parcel we are talking about, there ;; is a way to force that, isn't there? s y' `'`'` Brown: And it seems unreasonable to take a third party and try to make them responsible to -- e ;'~=~~ Borup: Well -- but that third party is not a third party, he's the one that did the illegal ~'~`- split. ~'~ ,-: =~~ Brown: Well, the developer is a third party, though. -, Borup: Right. ,'i Brown: I mean he didn't even buy it from the person that did the illegal division. ~~, ~A: ~' Borup: Well -- and I can see the problem in hindsight there, but maybe he should have looked into what they were buying a little better. But, you know -- ~. ~.~:, ~.. . '~=' Zaremba: And I agree with both sides. If it's legally split, I can't see any reason to '; force the acre parcel out into it. I guess my question is if it's not legally split, we can't `-,` do anything else. .: f,;. ,~ Borup: Well, I -- and I can't cite a case, but I feel pretty comfortable to say that we have `'' probably done it a lot already on other projects. `t=~~' Brown: I mean that's why you go through a subdivision, as Mrs. McKay talked about, 4~, that -- that corrects their portion that they have some ability to control. They don't have ~;,. ability to control the other person. You can notify the county and with computers and ~5 ~, technology that we have you can make sure that he doesn't ever get a building permit t~, ~ until he rectifies it one way or another. ~,,. ss~ Borup: Well, one acre they are probably not planning on doing anything else with that ~,.; ;' parcel. Okay. Thank you. Come up, sir. ~' .i Meridian Planning & Zoning `,''` ' ~' December 4, 2003 Page 24 of 83 Reeves: Commissioners, I'm Gerald Reeves and I live at 2990 Duane Drive, and I just wanted to emphasize what Mr. Belcher said earlier. I attended the ACRD meeting also and I heard what Mr. Belcher had said, that Duane Drive was to be closed with a swing ~~~;~` gate until the residents of Duane Drive decided otherwise and by the amount of ~`~~ applause that I heard in the audience, I think everybody else heard that also. That's all `.; I wanted to say. Borup: Okay. Yeah. So, that -- that was what the commissioners had stated, too, that -- is what you are remembering? ,.,~ ~: ~`;; ';l -: >~ `. i „~ Reeves: Yeah. Borup: And assuming everyone -- or pretty much everyone there liked the idea of the gate. Reeves: Yes. And I think that's why there aren't as many people here tonight. Borup: Because they were assuming there is going to be a gate. Reeves: Yeah. Borup: Okay. Thank you. Okay. Becky. McKay: Just to answer some of Mr. Belcher's questions, as far as the access to Eagle Road, I mentioned that at some point in time there will be access to Eagle Road through stub -- via this stub street on our western boundary right here, but, obviously, there are no plans for that at this time, so I don't think he should be concerned. Any development of those properties to the west will go back for a Public Hearing and they will be looking, obviously, for a circuitous route of that public street to make sure that if Duane is ever opened u p, t hat they don't g et a c ut-through e ffect from E agle R oad. S econdly, t he Duane Drive opening -- my recollection of the discussion from the Ada County Highway District commissioners was that if the residents of Duane Drive wanted to petition the commission in the future to open up Duane Drive for vehicular access, if at some point in time it was extremely difficult for them to access Ustick Road and it would benefit them to have access via Granger going out to Cloverdale, then, it would be entertained, but I believe they did make some reference to the City of Meridian or the Meridian fire department having the ability in the future, if they saw a need, for it to be open. But they talked about they would want it to be like a Public Hearing. So, it wouldn't be a behind-closed-door decision. It would be opened up for discussion and notification. That was my impression. Concern the fencing -- Borup: So, if -- as Commissioner Zaremba said, if we clarified that, it sounds like that would be okay with the applicant and -- McKay: I believe so. ,:~.: < ~t ; Sri ±^ r'~} Meridian Planning & Zoning ~, I December 4, 2003 r} :*` Page 25 of 83 Borup: Because that was your understanding from ACHD.

Borup: Because all we have is a summary of minutes. `=~'r'~ McKay: That's correct. And I haven't seen the detailed minutes from that meeting, but --;>,~:{ we can, obviously, access them, get them to staff, and have staff write asummary -- #'~ Borup: But that's still your understanding, it would be a petition by the Duane Drive residents or the city. .=s McKay: Yes. Borup: And I think that makes sense to have the city included in there. McKay: That was my understanding. ~~ Zaremba: But I also think it makes sense not to have anybody -- any citizen from anywhere be able to -- McKay: No. That was not their intent. Zaremba: And, then, the second question is should there be some kind of a timing. This can't be asked for until X or should we just leave that? =~~ McKay: Well, this is our last phase, this phase six, so you have got five phases that will >: take place before this ever develops. I mean we can do a phase a year, I mean that could be five, six years away. So, to put a time frame, I don't know if that would be appropriate. Zaremba: Okay. _' McKay: The issue of fencing along Perkins-Brown eastern boundary. Yes, wood fences ;.t '~~ do discolor. My client has indicated that he would be willing to install avinyl -- one of those new vinyl type fences. They don't discolor. If they have animals, the vinyl ~~ typically doesn't hold up well to the animals. It probably would be in our best interest and theirs that the vinyl go on the outside of the ag fence, so have the two fences abut each other. Borup: I found that cedar fences don't hold up well with horses either. I have got posts t;, that have been chewed through by my neighbor. ~,;.t McKay: Concerning the Milks Lateral. As Commissioner Zaremba indicated, the historical exit point of that facility will be matched. We are keeping it pretty darn close h' Meridian Planning & Zoning ~ • ~fi December 4, 2003 .,. _, "'` Page 26 of 83 '`` within our interior of its historical location, it's just sliding over a little bit as we pipe it r,;^~ through our development. As far as the head gates are concerned, I did meet with John Anderson at Nampa-Meridian, I did discuss with him retaining some of those ~a boxes and head gates that are on our perimeters, because when you get i nto those '~~:~ facilities and start messing with them, sometimes you have problems and he said he ~`` was not opposed to that, that we could -- as long as we fenced around them or covered -~~:~, ~'`'~* them in some fashion to meet the ditch safety regulations. ..~.,. Borup: So, that's your intention to leave the ones on your perimeter -- `? McKay: Yeah. If at all possible we try to leave those, if they are in good condition and ,f we can, obviously, work with the facility. Sometimes they can't be salvaged and, then, we work with the adjoining downstream users, in addition to Nampa-Meridian, to come :;~ up with a different solution. r 3 Borup: But, either way, they would be entering and exiting your property at the present a-. , ~'~ location? ., McKay: Yes, sir. Concerning the Clover Meadows Subdivision, I did forget to talk about that. I have been discussing that issue with Gary Peva, who is kind of their ditch master ,r for Clover Meadows Subdivision and the issue is -- for clarification, there is a ditch that f~i runs along this south boundary. In Red Feather No. 1, we have piped that ditch. When it gets to this point, then, the property boundary is falling approximately the center of that ditch. It is these residents' concern that the don't want that ditch ut i Y n i e and P pp they want to make sure that they have access to the ditch, since they are the ones that utilize it. Our pump station is up here off the Milks Lateral, a regional pump station in t con~u ~ nction with Dawson Meadows. So, we have no use for that facility. So, it was my recommendation -- I said, well, so do you want the ditch open and you want it on .your `; site. They said, yes, we want to make sure that it gets properly cleaned, we have k:~^_ ~~= access, so I said let's put the fence up on the north bank, so the ditch is on your side. Those lots are about 115 to 117 feet in depth, they have adequate depth, they will never '~'> miss the two feet. Your ordinance, I believe, states that if a ditch adjoins or is adjacent to, that you will pipe it, unless it exceeds a 48-inch or someone grants you a waiver. So, I believe the Council has to grant that waiver. So, we will have to bring that issue up with the Council. But I think that's a good solution. We always -- when the gravity irrigate out of the ditch and that is the case, we have a problem when we try to put it in pipe. Borup: So, at this point you're anticipating the fence would move two or three feet? McKay: The fence would move two feet to get it to the north boundary of that ditch. Borup: That was my other question. Are you going to discuss the boundary line also? ~~ McKay: They believed that that ditch was on their side, because the fences reflect that, but that - in actuality that was not the case. So, that's where they became concerned, ~~~ ~~~~ ~.~~ ~~ r ~- ~ .~~ f w :~r',: s 4 ~V ~~ N`t .- } i ~ ~^` ~_ h`, Meridian Planning & Zoning "~`'""~ December 4, 2003 `"-~~~~ Page 27 of 83 a «. because the felt they were going to lose control and access to that ditch. So, I can't do a property boundary adjustment from unplatted property into platted property. So, the only solution that I can think we -- we also can't leave a strip two feet wide. So, we find _ a lot of times that our fences are inset a foot or two, depending on conditions. I means that's -- as you well know, the fences don't always reflect the actual boundaries. "~~,. ~..~k;~. f:~~ Zaremba: You feel comfortable with atwo-foot easement or something like that? ~: ~. ;~ McKay: Yes. Yes. Zaremba: Okay. %'"" Borup: You feel competent that the present survey is accurate? f,,,, McKay: Yes. That's my understanding that it is accurate and I recommended to Mr. Peva that he provide the clerk and Bruce a copy of his letter requesting that, so there is something in writing in the record. The pedestrian pathway. I think that's an excellent idea, because we do have the Ustick elementary located right up in this area here. The only thing is, somebody in the Clover Meadows Subdivision would have to grant an easement on their side and provide some type of access on their side. Zaremba: You can put it in, but it has to go somewhere. It has to connect to something. ~` McKay: Yeah. If that's possible, then, we -- and we can line up, I mean we are not opposed to making a pedestrian connection. In fact, I'm always a proponent of interconnection between the neighborhoods. Borup: So, you would need that -- but this would be in about phase five? McKay: That's phase two. Borup: Phase two. Mathes: So, what do you do with the ditch? You pipe it where they are going to cross? McKay: You would have to put a little piece of pipe through there to have them cross it. V ~ Borup: But I'm also assuming you would need to know where that access would be sooner than later, so you can design accordingly. _ McKay: Yes. And I'd hate to put a pedestrian pathway and, then, have them not find a resident willing to -- Borup: And that was my point earlier. That has to be existing before you design it. Tro: ~~3: {`' ~ ~`5 Meridian Planning & Zoning ~ • ;; % December 4, 2003 `',, ,~:' Page 28 of 83 ' •9. McKay: Yes. But I will work with them to try to come up with that, because I think it is ?ti ~ a good idea. Lastly, the issue of the Smitchger parcel. Probably about 40 to 50 percent of the time a particular property at some point in time has been ille all divided. I think :: 9 Y ~:;~~x you re getting hung up on the issue of that fact, when -- I mean like as Commissioner s. Borup indicated, this body has been annexing parcels for years that their creation was .., 5'~` not researched. ~- Borup: Just that we were never aware of it. ;~. . McKay: True. It wasn't an issue at the time. I guess my contention is I know of no ,~~ w, state law and there is nothing in your ordinance that I have ever come across that would ~~ prohibit or inhibit you from annexing this property and leaving that outside, especially a where it's a separate entity, has been a separate entity for multiple years. The problem is Mr. Smitchger's. If he -- I worked at the county, so I'm very aware of this. If he comes in for a building permit to add onto his home, for example, an addition, obviously, ' it s very obvious that he's zoned RUT, but he's only one acre in size. Immediately that sends up a red flag. So, the county planners, who have to issue a zoning certificate in ~~> ~`~~' order for that building permit for the addition to be issued, will take a look at it and they - P~~. f,• will tell him that he needs to legalize his property, bring it into compliance with a particular zone, like he could rezone to R-1 and possibly bring it into compliance that fit;; way, if that was acceptable to the county or, as Kent indicated, he could plat it. And I have had multiple one lot plats in the city of Boise to legalize a parcel. And a lot of '~~ times they were out in industrial areas where they have been illegally divided in the '80s rl, and I had a client buy the property and Boise wouldn't issue a permit until we legalized ' ~ it, so we platted it, and not once did I -- was I ever mandated to include the other parcel ~ ~ ~ that had been illegally subdivided also. That was their problem, their owners -- the ^~r s responsibility is on that owner to rectify the problem. Powell: Chairman Boru ? p Borup: Yes. -~ Powell: Is this your last point, Becky? Could I chime in, so--okay. Becky and I both ~;: ~:~;: have the advantage of having worked at the county, but I have the further advantage of having worked more recently and they have changed interpretation and the prosecuting ,_ attorney staff has said that if you have an illegal sub, the remedy is not for just one portion of that illegal sub to go through the subdivision process, but that you recombine, such that you have the parent property, the original property, and that has to go through the subdivision procedure. So, there is -- ` Borup: What's the definition of the parent property? ,` Powell: Well, in this case it would have been the whole -- whatever existed as of -- what '~ = :~ .. is it, January 1st, 1985, is their amnesty date. So, that's what they consider a lot of legal record was one that existed in the county recorder's office as of January 1st, 1985, so -- _, ~~; ~.. I I ~>, r. ~' ~. >r ;' ~~ Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 29 of 83 Borup: But in this case you say the parent property has to comply. Powell: It would be the ones -- the property we are looking at today, plus the one-acre. They would make that property go in. Borup: Well, I thought you said the parent property had to comply? Powell: Well, that's the parent property. Borup: Which one? Powell: The whole thing. The parent property is one that -- the original parcel of record. Borup: So, the definition of parent property is both parcels? Powell: Yeah. Borup: Okay. Powell: So, that is what they would require. Now, if the city were to annex the remainder of the property and just leave the one-acre, they wouldn't take retribution on that one-acre. They deem it that if the city annexes it, then, that's their fault and so -- because the rest of it is out of their jurisdiction, they'd legalize that one-acre. And I'd also like to say Becky is right, as far as we know, there is nothing that prevents us from annexing. The question is can we submit a subdivision on it and the subdivision regulations say it has to be an original parcel of record, our subdivision ordinance, since 1984. And so what we are saying is that it does not meet that ,definition of being eligible for a subdivision as it stands. That one-acre property needs to be included with the subdivision to make that. Not to say that we haven't done it in the past, we know we have, but -- Borup: That was my next question. Powell: That doesn't mean we should continue to make that mistake in the future. The other thing I'd like to say -- it's not -- you know, annexing it -- the reason we don't -- the reason staff, in particular, is interested in this -- and I think the city in general, is that it's not just the tax roll or having that person on the tax roll, it's more a question of getting those services and providing -- or getting the street improvements along Ustick and being able to provide services. If that one acre parcel, if that septic were to fail, right now they'd have to bring it in from the entrance road and they'd have to take sewer and water -- sewer services all the way over there. There is -- that's a long way for one property owner to take that length of sewer just to provide that service. So, we are not -- we are not getting the services, we are not getting the street improvements. Those are the things from -- at least from the planning standpoint that we are concerned about, not necessarily that he's on the city's tax roll or not. Particularly with the school nearby, ~, .. stx wag7r3 r ~,~ ~ " ~-~ ,.n ~R~'r ~ ti,Mt _ ?~_] ~~ 3 ~~~: ~~ ,. ,~,. f ~F .. ~. ~. ~ .,.

Page 30 of 83 -,': ~ -~`~' ' "~ those sidewalks become very important and ACRD doesn't always have funds for those. ., So, those are some of the reasons that -- you know, that we are interested in this being ~~ part of the subdivision. It's not -- you know, for one, it needs to be by our code and, for ~~ two, there are those improvements that we are looking at . _~~~ ;s~~, ' Borup: The question I would have, then, what option does the applicant have? I mean in ~~~° -~~~ the past the ones that we have addressed -- you know, this past year, the same -- one "x ;~. individual owned both parcels and by making that a requirement, the owner would have ~~ the option of an annexing or not, but, obviously, in that case, if they didn't, I'm assuming ;:~ they would lose their sale on their property, so they had some incentive to do that. In ~; this case there is no incentive at all. n Powell: Well, other than possible litigation, I suppose. But, hopefully, we won't get to that. I agree -- ~> ~: Borup: Are you saying for the applicant to litigate? Powell: Yeah. Not us. 1''~ Borup: Right. n`'` Powell: There is private remedies for an illegal property. But the county is faced with ~'~ the same things since they have enacted this interpretation and there is -- you know, there is more incentive there when you can withhold permits or withhold annexation or ;, withhold approval of a subdivision than later. The reason I brought up the ~ ;wi improvements is perhaps to say that maybe there is a compromise situation there, if the ` developer is willing to look at things that -- to address some of those issues, knowing that it is not really eligible by our standards, but recognizing that we have done it in the t.~r' tiler past and that there are extenuating circumstances in this case. ~~' i Borup: Okay. ,; Zaremba: I would ask an additional question, I guess, again, of legal counsel. If there F was a sale seven or eight years ago, I guess it was, and, then, a new sale again now, those have had to go through some sort of a title process and has this split thereby ~~,- been legitimized by the fact that a sale has been recorded twice? ~a y. Borup: I don't think -- I don't there is a relationship between the two. Zaremba: Okay. ~'~ Borup: You can buy something that you can't do anything with. Not very smart, maybe, but a person can still do it. And that's something that the buyer is taking the chance on. You know, it's -- they are taking that risk if they don't research what they are buying. ~t;.~ :~ h-:: {:~ Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 31 of 83 Y.~ Zaremba: But that's what you pay title insurance for, at least on a private residence. <f' Borup: Well, maybe someone can answer that.

Maybe ~:y,~. someone can clarif that. It would uarantee that the ro ert y g p p y you're buying is what you actually got. And, then, any other conditions. Zaremba: Free of liens and other stuff. ;1;~~ Borup: Right. Becky. ~~~~ McKay: I guess, Commissioner Borup, I'd like to just say a couple things. Anna talks ~~'" about including this in the annexation that will facilitate the construction of sidewalks. µY:~ ACHD puts no condition on an annexation, they can't, for extension of sidewalks. That's on a subdivision. Powell: And we were saying it should be included in the subdivision McKay: So, you're saying it should be included in the subdivision? -, ~ Powell: Yeah. '> ~ McKay: Okay. The other issue, too, is when I worked at Ada County we got a legal opinion and it was determined that we could not force another property owner to participate in a plat or a rezone if his property was illegally divided if he chose not to. So, I guess my point is it depends on the legal whims of the time. When I was there it '` was different director. When Anna -- you know, then, when Anna was there. Now, r ~~~ they are going to have a new director, so -- they have got new commissioners. Interpretations change. I think they are going to have a hard time demanding that a ~,~~ property has to include an unrelated parcel in its application if at some point in time, ten, 15 years ago, it was illegally divided. I just -- we use the subdivision process to legalize parcels and that's -- and create parcels. When we technically subdivide a portion of a parcel, you are splitting it. What about the remainder? There have been discussions about that. If you take an 80 and you plat 20, what about the 60? What is the status of ~,~ the 60 if the rest o f the development is never developed? I m can there a re a lot of "'~~ questions. But we always have that platting process to legalize and that opportunity is available to Mr. Smitchger and the City of Meridian has the ability to annex that property if they see fit.

Members of the Planning and Zoning Commission, you know, I'm sitting here kind of feeling, I guess, stupid, but, on the other hand, I don't really think I should feel that way, because in the last 25 years of experience in the real estate brokerage development business, I have never seen this happen or come to this point ever before. And, believe me, if I would have known this was an issue, I wouldn't have gone out and closed on over four million dollars worth of real estate and you have got an issue up here -- there is, really, two properties up there. The one acre parcel Mr. Smitchger doesn't own anymore, someone else does, and there is a little battle between Smitchger and him, and you're asking me to go solve it, because of something that's never enforced before and I would really like to encourage you to, you know, use the other powers you have, if you really feel it needs to be annexed, and you guys take that battle on. Borup: Well, we haven't asked anything yet. We are discussing. Grove: All right. Thank you. Borup: Any other questions of Mr. Grove? You know, I forgot to ask Becky when she was up on where the school boundary is. Do you know where that is on here? Grove: The school boundary for -- Borup: The grade school.

As you know, Keith, the school boundaries for the grade schools change all the time, so we anticipate -- Borup: No. No. I meant the property itself, not the attendance lines. I meant the property itself. Grove: No, I don't think the school is at that corner. Borup: It's not at the Boise city line, then? Grove: No. It's over -- it's over another quarter. "4 Meridian Punning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 33 of 83 Borup: Okay. Grove: I stand corrected. Borup: Okay. It is right there. Thank you. Commissioners, questions? How about some discussion, then? Zaremba: I don't necessarily have a problem going with precedent, you know, and particularly since this property, apparently, has been sold a couple times, independent of what was another piece of the parent property. ''_;: Borup: I think the other aspect along that line is there has kind of been some _~~ commitments made a year ago on this -- on this property, back when they were looking "`'~~ at annexation into Boise and -- I mean so the city was aware of it at that time. Is that , x what you were leading to? I mean that was -- - Zaremba: Well, it's been talked about and I don't think anybody told him he would have to be annexed as part of this at that time either. I don't remember that part of it being a ~_ topic of discussion. Borup: No. The time when that should have come up was in '97, but at that time there was no development discussed, because there was no services available. Zaremba: Okay. Let's talk about -- was it water and sewer that needed to be looped and have -- :-•1 ~; =4~~~ ~~ Borup: Just the water. Zaremba: Just the water. To have two ways in. Borup: Sewer only goes one direction. Zaremba: That's true. Downhill. Gravity. Yeah. The pressurized incoming water.

Is that a possibility if we were to say that had to be part of it?

I'm 4 inclined to require the loop somehow. I understand the purpose of it and the necessity of it. On another application it's even mentioned that junk collects at the end of a dead s'~ end and you have to have a loop in order not to get junk collecting in your line. But guess my -- staff is offering to work it out with the applicant how the time line is going to go. My question of the applicant is if we say at some point it does have to have a loop ~~' connection and at some point the city is talking about a new well out in that area, is the applicant comfortable knowing that there may be some delays, but you just need to ~` work with the city on -- I'm seeing nods yes.

McKay: Mr. Chairman, Commissioner Zaremba, I guess are you asking time line? September of '04 would be the earliest we anticipate any building permits being issues. That is our target date. As far as the -- cooperating with the staff, we really don't have a choice. We have to have that 1,500 gpm to meet the fire flow requirements. The staff has indicated they have some public works projects in this area that they may tag on the bore of Eagle Road, because that is a very expensive endeavor and assist us kind of as a cooperative nature getting that water line eastward over to our boundary. So, I guess the answer is, yes, we will work with the staff to obtain easements and get that loop at some point in time, I guess, when it is needed. Borup: So, you understand when you say you need to have the gpm -- McKay: Yes, sir. Borup: -- and that would be determined prior to final plat. McKay: Yes. When we submit construction plans and a final plat, the staff -- I would assume at that point in time Bruce's group will run a water model based on availability of water, any developments or houses that have come on line between now and then to determine if we have got adequate flow. And if we don't, then, obviously, they are not going to approve those construction plans, the Council is not going to approve that final plat. We would, obviously, have to go pull that other main line eastward get that loop at that point. Borup: And to bring that one from the -- McKay: It's at Leslie Drive. Borup: To bring it in from Eagle Road, are you going to need some type of conceptual layout design, I'm assuming? McKay: Commissioner Borup, it would follow the same alignment as the sewer, running parallel with the South Slough. Borup: Okay. So, you go in that easement, that existing easement. McKay: Right. And the water main is in Leslie Drive right now o n the west side of Eagle Road. Borup: Okay. And I wouldn't anticipate any problem with the property owners. I mean that's a benefit to them. Meridian Planning & Zoning `~.~': December 4, 2003 Page 38 of 83 McKay: Yes, it is. So, I guess have the staff come up with some conditions that they are comfortable with. `;~ Borup: Bruce, as long as that gallons per minute is necessary, then, before final ~~ approval, is there any other restrictions that needs to be stated at this point, as long as it ~;.;~, can meet that criteria?

Hawkins-Clark: Chairman Borup, Commissioner Zaremba, I -- you know, I think it might be wise for us to just get clarification, you know, I think on that from ACRD. It sounds like there is clear agreement from those that were at the ACHD meeting, but, you know, I don't think we have the authority to change ACHD commissions -- Borup: We can restate what -- Zaremba: We can have a position of our own. Hawkins-Clark: Right. I'm envisioning you putting the applicant in a conflict between the two agencies and I don't think that's -- we need to -- a condition needs to be worded that you either give ACRD their authority or maybe it could be worked out prior to a City Council hearing. Zaremba: Okay. I'm comfortable with that. And, I agree, the wording that ACRD provided to us and to you is a lot more liberal than the audience apparently heard. Borup: Right.

If you don't have a problem with -- Borup: You mean presently? Zaremba: My personal thinking is that it should be removable, but I want to restrict who -~~ can ask to remove it. It needs to be usable by emergency services and removable by Perkins-Brown or our fire department. Period. That's my thinking. I don't know if I'm the only one that's thinking that way. _ Borup: No. And I agree. And I questioned that right when I read that.

Especially with all the history that's already taken place on this. Zaremba: The only thing that makes it a shame, it would be nice if it, actually, could be included in this, so that they don't continue to have access onto Ustick, so their access would be part of this property.

Running through the subdivision and with that, the °~~w vacation that's proposed concurrently with the subdivision, this is a subdivision on 17. 26 acres. It's currently zoned C-G and the proposal is for six buildable lots and one ':~_ ~ common lot. It's -- the site is located approximately 200 feet, south of Franklin Road :~.~ and 500 feet west of Meridian Road. The plat proposes to resubdivide lots in Troutner Business Park No. 1 showing here on the screen. It was just recorded in 1997.

They can do the same -- basically, ''-~~ the same street in a 57 -- 54-foot right of way, so that six feet goes away.

S tall b elieves t hat a s tub s treet t o t he s outh, ~r~? whether it be in the location platted as shown here or in another location, one should be provided from the property to the undeveloped parcel to the south. So, staff is recommending that this body make a recommendation to the City Council that we consent and allow ACHD to process that application. Now, ACHD is the lead agency, they will hold a Public Hearing as well and make the ultimate decision on vacation .; , ;~` application. However, in their process, in order to go through that vacation process, '%~ they require that the applicant come to the City of Meridian and get consent from the City Council to even start that process. So, this is kind of a first step in a long line of hearings and agendas that this item will be on, but that would be staffs recommendation that this board forward onto them approval of the submitted '~ ' ~ application, with the exception of the 3rd Street Avenue South. That is pretty much the ` ~ staff r eport for b oth t he v acation a nd t he p reliminary p lat a nd s tall d oesn't h ave a ny ~~' other concerns, really, with the -- let me show you a picture of the preliminary plat. ~~~iFl irt: There is an aerial that shows a submitted preliminary plat and the main difference, I = . E guess, is that you can see the lots north of Penwood is now one lot north of Penwood '~ with that right of way. This was the right of way that's platted that's proposed for s `' vacation. That's all one lot now. And there are four lots along the south, with no -- that connection not being there. I believe that is the extent of the staff report and I believe ~ the applicant would like to speak on that. That's the main thing that I believe the issue ~~ that the applicant has and I will stand for any questions. -~:,; ;TES; " F.. Y~/'n"' Borup: Any questions from the Commission? Would the applicant like to comment? Zaremba: Actually, I did have a question before we get to the applicant. We have in ~~ our packets two different letters from Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District. One of them dated 9 October, it lists a whole bunch of easements and stuff that they think need to be `""' dealt with and, then, another one, which was dated the 4th of November that says Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District as no easements on either side of West Penwood, ~Y~~' therefore, w e h ave n o t urther c omment. I s t here s ome r esolution o f those t wo? O f '~~ course, the one that says they don't have any is the more recent one, but the one of October 9th, they have a . 03 acre lot that would become landlocked with the easement ~~~ -- if 3rd Street is vacated and several easements they don't specify, several easements for a pressure irrigation system within the area. Do we need to be concerned about that? Borup: Well, which was the -- which packet was that other letter in?

We will have the applicant speak to that. That would be good. . '- ~ 5"" Ballantyne: Mike Ballantyne. Business address 250 South 5th, Boise, 83702. `z> Chairman Borup and Commissioners, just to speak -- I'll let Ryan Addleman speak to ' the item related to Nampa-Meridian, but just to give you some background real quick on ~`;~ ' the application. In 1997 -- actually, beginning in 1996, but finishing in 1997, this property, nearly 40 acres, was platted as a business park with approximately one-acre lots. Phase two, we'll call it, the property to the -- that we are proposing to replat, that ~~~' was under anon-development agreement with the City of Meridian. There was a development agreement on that west half of the property, non-development on the east half. That non-development agreement has expired and so in order to be able to do any land use action, we have to resubmit the plat -- resubmit a plat. In doing that, we have determined we have a potential user for the property and so we have determined to ~~~ 4: y~ reconfigure the property, including a vacation of 3rd Street. So, that's the reason we are before you today. We have no issues with the staff report, with the exception of the site-specific requirement number one and that is the extension of Southwest 3rd to the ~ ,~; south. We understand that connectivity is a priority for the city. It's a priority for us as _ _ well. The reason we are moving ahead with phase two is that it's important for us to .`zl have a connection out to Meridian Road. However, the property owner to the south, as well as the property owner to the north who is here today have re eatedl re u t d ;~ ~ , , p y q es e that we not put those streets in -- or not put Southwest 3rd Avenue in, because primarily Kt~°=~ I ~~:,: the property owner to the south, it will dissect his property and potentially cause significant damage to him financially. So, as we don't -- we don't need it, we will have a , i connection out to Meridian Road. We have Southwest 5th stubbed down to the ;, ~ Corporate Drive extension. We have, you know, proposed vacating that, so Ryan a~~~ Addleman has copies of letters from the property owners to the north and t th th t o e sou o enter into the record requesting that that be vacated. He also has aletter -- the letter that you're referencing about the easement and that just relates to the drain there, so I'll ~~~3. let him speak to that, if that's all right. I can answer any questions first. ~: Borup: Any questions from the Commission? Is the - I'm assuming the property owner ;r~, to the south is going to testify? ,_; ' Ballantyne: He is not here. He did provide a letter to be entered into the record that requested that that road not be extended. r;~= Borup: And what are his intentions with the property, then? ~`~~R ~~~ _. ~~Y ~~ ~, _ ~~; ,a .~:~ .;,~ x~~~~~~~ ~~.; ~ Y s~ ~~.f ~ 7.8i. t ~}i'~t!

He just -- he plans to ~;>~~ develop the property at some point and certainly putting a road through the middle of it '~ ~~'~> affects his ability to develop it in the future. `~` ~: Borup: And he has access from -- is that a street to the south of his property? ,,, F-,:~,, Ballantyne: Chairman Borup, his property runs from here all the way -- runs from `~~~ "` ' Meridian Road all the way to the line that -- what I'm showing here and includes a `- potential future extension of 3rd. So, he has one single parcel here -- well, one property composed of, I think, three parcels. He's already had to work with the highway district to dedicate Corporate Drive in order for them to be able to put their detention or _ retention ponds here and doesn't want to have to be required to split the property to ~_~ connect here. Certainly 5th Street, as I mentioned before, will connect here to the 4``' ` future Corporate Drive extension. ~`~~ Borup: Okay. So, he's feeling he's got adequate access on Corporate Drive? Ballantyne: Yeah. He feels certainly with his frontage on Meridian Road and on Corporate Drive he's got plenty of access. Or future Corporate Drive. And he will be -~~ required to dedicate the balance of the Corporate Drive right of way at the time he ~3 develops that property, so that the highway district can extend Corporate Drive. f°°: r; Borup: And this access point will -- this isn't in existence right now, is it? - Ballantyne: Chairman Borup, it is in existence. There is currently a temporary turnaround here and this is a different property owner, who owns this property, and he will be required to connect to 5th at the time he develops his property. 7, ~, v'i`, Borup: Does he own both sides of -- this property owner? Ballantyne: This property here is owned by Troutner Business Park Development Corporation. He owns this property. And this property is owned by the Ada County Highway District, which I believe was an illegal lot split, but we don't want to discuss the illegal lot split. And that is not in the scope of this application Borup: Right. No. No. Ballantyne: Nor was it ever part of this property here as far as the application. Zaremba: I remember back in 1824 -- Borup: Okay. Ballantyne: It has it's own set of issues. ,., ~~t ~, ~T ~~ Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 52 of 83 Borup: Okay. Thank you. ~, -~ 1 Addleman: Ryan Addleman, Keller and Associates. Business address, 131 Southwest 5th, Meridian. I have got the four letters from the adjacent property owners I'd like to enter into evidence. And, Commissioner, in regards to the October 9th letter, is that the one you're in question about? From Nampa-Meridian? Borup: Yes. Zaremba: I think that was the one, yes. Addleman: That was something that we worked out with the Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District as part of the original plat -- Troutner Business Park's plat. We have dedicated a 60-foot easement to Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District. However, as part of relieving the other lots that were in part of the big lot, we had to provide access to a pump station that's located right here. There is a very small lot there where the pressure irrigation system is for the subdivision. And so, therefore, what we have done is put a 20-foot permanent a asement. This w ouldn't n ecessarily b e f or N ampa-Meridian, i t w ould b e some day in the future that if anybody else took over the irrigation system, that they would have that access easement to that lot. Zaremba: So, as far as you know they are satisfied. Addleman: They are satisfied, yes. Zaremba: All right. Addleman: Their biggest thing is they didn't want to be a signatory on the plat, so that's the way around it. Borup: Anyone else to testify on this? Come forward. k~r' Olson: Chairman Borup, Commissioners, my name is Reed Olson. I currently own -- or am a representative of the owners of one of the lots, one of the buildings in the Troutner Business Park. And could we put back up there the plat that shows the parcel ~`` as it's presently configured? The one just after that. No. I think you had it, but Ididn't - - that will work. Okay. The parcel that I'm referring to is that one right there. And the parcel that I'm concerned a bout in this proposed realignment is t hat o ne right there. And the reason that I'm concerned, the Troutner Business Park was established some ''%~ ~ five years ago, as was mentioned by Mr. Ballantyne and I represent the owners of the "~'~; parcel that's located on the west side of Southwest 5th near the entrance of the business park. My understanding of the proposal is to begin the process to allow a fi ~ mobile home park to be established in this parcel and I'd like to register my opposition to ~.:: that use for this parcel. The covenants for the Troutner Business Park states that it's the intent of the park to be one of the premier business locations not just in the state of - - - or not just in Meridian, but in the state of Idaho. And five years ago we built a building ~~. . .

At this point we will have an upcoming annual association ~ ~~. ~` meeting and in that I will be requesting that the developer not use the lots that are ~~.~~<. ~;~z~ currently along Southwest 5th, which would be that one that I pointed out second to be °~, apart of this realignment, thus, maintaining the integrity of the business park concept ~; ~>I along the street of Southwest 5th, hoping that that would segregate the parcel that's ;.`,;,'`_, i possibly become a mobile home park from the business park. And what I'd like to ask the Commission to do is defer a decision on this matter until after the association j"-~'i meeting takes place, which I believe is next week. Hopefully, in that meeting we can .-;~~~ discuss things with the developer and come to some kind of an agreement that will be ~~~F1 satisfactory for all sides and we don't need to bother the Commission about my J "' concerns. I can take any questions if you have any. ~. . % Borup: Questions from any of the Commissioners? Okay. I had two.

Like Mr. Olson, I have a lot in the project and we have put a building on it. The Troutner Business Park, Members of the Commission, is a subdivision. It was approved by the City of Meridian as a subdivision in 1997. The common scheme and design of the subdivision was for office buildings through the project. Now, not all of the lots have been sold. Mr. Ballantyne and his family still retain those and they retain these lots that are within this application for a replat. But the application represents to you and it says that the CC&Rs, the covenant, conditions, and restrictions, are in place for Troutner Business Park. That is true. The application also represents to you that all lots within the replat will be subject to these conditions. Well, Members of the Commission, the covenants and conditions -- which I know the city does not get involved in. You are not here to listen to me talk about what covenants mean or provide. I understand that. But when you are told in this application that the replat will be subject to them, I think it's permissible to talk to them. Well, what you have not been told, no one has, is what the anticipated use of the replatted property will be. Well, it will certainly not be what the original subdivision, plan called for, which are commercial developments in the project. Now, the information that we have -- and the owner has never spoken to us about it, but the information that we have is that the plan is for an RV park within the replat. Well, I cannot believe that the Commission would approve a replat without being told what the purpose is or the intended use, when the common scheme that the Commission approved six years ago -- the city approved, called for commercial development, with access -- dedicated right of way on 3rd -- for all of that to be abandoned, to unilaterally and without the consent of others who have purchased in the project. I don't believe that this Commission or the City will do that and I urge you to deny it. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Borup: Questions? Do you have concern that the CC&R's are going to be modified or changed from -- Mallea: If the applicant intended that, I'm guessing that that would be part of their representation to this Commission. That's not mentioned. All that is mentioned is that the replat would be subject to the covenants. Well, the covenants prohibit any trailer, any temporary structure, and have very rigorous design standards for any development within this subdivision. Borup: That's what I was wondering. So, if that's the case, then -- Mallea: Mr. Chairman, there are rigorous architectural and design standards. Borup: Okay. Then, where is the concern if you have rigorous requirements? Are you concerned they will ignore them, you mean? Mallea: Well, what you are being told is that they are subject to them. Obviously, they must intend the complete abandonment of whatever those covenants provide. ~F ~`V.., ~' t ,.~. ., r~ J: ''h _' Yk ~ ~{,~~ ~. 4 4 t a'1 ~ ~.

We are talking about a C-G zone. I do not find in any zone an RV park as being allowable. Under residential I see mobile home parks and subdivisions, which are not allowable in a C-G zone. Am I missing something? Can an RV park go in a C-G zone? ',';:4 Powell: Chairman Borup, Members of the Commission, you're absolutely right. And, ~.~ actually, the applicant did come to us and they haven't been secretive about what they ';::~' want to do there. But before I tell you all the conversations we had, you should -- and ~: ~ I'm sure you realize that the use on that property is not in question tonight, it's just a matter of the preliminary plat and the vacation. So, how they want to use that property would come back to you at another time. It won't be a principal permitted use. So, I ;,~ will tell you they are looking at an RV park. An RV park is not similar to a mobile home park, it's more like a hotel on wheels, so -- - Borup: Like the one up on Overland and Locust Grove. Powell: I'm not familiar with that one, but there is nods around the -- Borup: That's the only one I know about in town, but -- - Powell: And it's -- so what we have told them is that they need to come to us, because it's not a listed use. What the zoning ordinance says is that you need to -- they need to come to u s as a Conditional Use Permit for anything that's n of a listed use. I f we ;':.::,~ haven't considered it, it's not considered prohibited, it's just -- you have to come through the conditional use process. We can encourage them -- normally we encourage people ~~. ~'e~ to come in altogether as a bundle. In this case we encouraged them to get moving on -' °~~~ their right of way vacation, because it is such a painfully laborious process, I think would K,,_. ~~=e'~'~ be fair to say. It really does take a long time to get through that vacation process and we did encourage them to start that right of way -- right away. I think I'm getting a cold. t '~ Anyway. So, they have not tried to deceive us or an hin on this ro ert The came Yt 9 P P Y Y in and said we want to do an RV park, you know, how do we do it. So, they are just -,;~ following the -- kind of the sequencing that we gave them, but it is not a listed use, so it would have to be a conditional use, it would come back before you in that manner. `" ~ Borup: Could there be some -- I'd like some clarification on the non-build agreement on r_~ ~~ this parcel that was made reference to. I wasn't sure that that -- Hood: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission, I believe what -- since the Penwood right of way and the 3rd Street right of way of have not been constructed yet, the final plat has been recorded, ACHD put anon-build on this, because the roads aren't in.

Mr. Ballantyne. -J a~~'~~~ .Y Ballantyne: Chairman Borup, M embers o f t he C ommission, t o g ive y ou a l ittle b it of ~,~: background, the nondevelopment agreement, when -- ordinarily and customarily now as ~.; ~=~, you enter into a plat, you enter into a nondevelopment agreement with -- or a '~ development agreement with the city. A nondevelopment agreement is just the opposite, it says that until such time that you put in the infrastructure improvements, you .;y cannot hypothecate, sell, or do anything with the lots and so we, basically, signed that ~ with the city, you know, can't do anything -- and the other agencies. But our intention is <`~~~ - not to build a mobile home park here. Our -- we have been approached by a group that y~~ ~r;=F does want to purchase part of the property to develop an RV park and whether that happens or not, it's our intention to replat the property. In the six years that we have ~~ ~ ~ ~ owned the property we have sold eight lots, about eight acres, and -- or developed ~+ about eight acres and two of them have been ourselves, so there is not a great deal of 'S-'` demand for these large lots. It's our intent -- we really want to get this Penwood ~`~,~ through and based on the current configuration, we would have to build 3rd as well, and ,.,,~, so I have already got about 15 lots here that I can't sell, so I really don't want to build ,.J~y` about 15 more lots that I can't sell. So, we have been approached by this party, we are ~~~ under contract. This portion of the property is not included in that contract. If you go back to the approved plat, you will see that this -- any of them, you will see that this line ~~~° takes a jaunt and the reason was these lots were getting so thin here at the back when they were platted so a s to not be usable. The p roblem is that t his lot in its current configuration is very unwieldy. We have done a number of layouts of buildings and _ because of this narrowness here, you can't circulate the cars the way you want. So, what -- our intent there was just to make this property line up here, move this line this j-~ 4 1 way, we would still have over an acre buildable lot here and this would square up this . .x' property. It just made sense. There will be no access here. There is no -- Borup: And that was what I was going to ask. Ballantyne: There is no dedication of right of way. This would not be part of it. Certainly, you know, what's under your purview today is whether or not we can -- your recommendation on vacation and whether or not we can replat. -~~ Borup: So, why doesn't your replat design show this line going straight through, then?

That does go through there, but this lot was just included in with ti the -- because that affected that lot. I understand. ~~~ Ballantyne: Basically, our situation with the members of the association, the property ~"~' owners in the park, is it did not make sense for us to approach them about the potential ~~ •~ use of this ro ert until we knew whether the city and the highway district would P P Y support a vacation of the road. If they wouldn't to vacate the road, we couldn't sell it, s ':~ redevelopment it, and so it would be a moot point. We scheduled the meeting for next ~ <.. ~•~ week, so -- after this hearing, so we would know what the opinion of the city was, so _ ~ that we could, then, go to the property owners and say the city is allowing us to do this, ~,.; this is what we'd like to do, this is the use, show them the design, that type of thing. e~~; So, there was no intent to deceive or -- I mean as your director -- Planning and Zoning ~,;~:~ director will say, we have been up front and trying to make sure everybody understood .~~'~ that. In terms of the CC&Rs, I know it's not part of your purview, but certainly this property w ould n of b e c onsistent w ith t he C C&R's h ere, this p roperty would, a nd w e s{ r ,~ ~~ ;; ~ would need to, as an association, determine how to handle that. Most likely it would be ~~`~~~' to amend the CC&R's to have a separate use here. That's if we go with this RV park. s ~ ~ ~ If we don't and we leave it as one single use, we will probably just leave the CC&R's in "~~+.r, lace and sell this one sin le arcel. Does that answer -- ~r- : ~ P 9 P ~' `R ' Borup: Yes. That answers my -- ;, -;z~ Ballantyne: -- the concerns that were raised? ~ <: ~` ° " Borup: Anything else? ~ ~ _, ~ - Rohm: I think it's safe to say that the vacation of the right of way doesn't necessarily ~, ; ; support the development of any new project. It would still have to come before the . t ~ board as a Conditional Use Permit and so by vacating doesn't say, yes, you can do h t i b } ~ >~ w a s eing proposed at the next stage. ,. ~``~' Ballantyne: Certainly. Absolutely. We recognize that there is many steps we have to go through and before we can get anything done. If It was an RV park, for instance we `~. , :-~ , would have to come back to this body and to the -- actually, do we come to body or go ~.; `~ ~~ ._ directly to City Council on a CUP?

Ballantyne: Yeah. Exactly. But it's possible that the use would be such, even if it was closer, that you wouldn't want the road to go through.

Come back later for vacation, I guess. `'~ Borup: Well, yeah. Yeah. But Penwood is going through right now to 5th and so there would be access? ~_I Ballantyne: Correct. 5th and then through the Commercial Tire Subdivision we will >''~i extend Penwood to Meridian Road.

I'm wondering how strong staff feels Y, about that. `~~ Hood: Mr. Chair, Members of the Commission, let me just kind of walk you through my thought process when evaluating this application. I guess kind of similar to what the Y~E applicant just p ointed o ut, if we vacate this right of way now, it's recommended that `~ ACHD vacate this right of way, the opportunity is lost for that road to go through. If the stub is provided, it could be T'd if that property owner further to the south doesn't want ~~= to build the road all the way through to Corporate Drive. They do have a lot of frontage on Corporate. The other reason that I think that the stub street makes sense, without ,.;~ knowing what's going to develop on that parcel, is it allows future tenants in this subject ``~`_~ development another access point to what will in the future be a signal at Meridian and ~~ Corporate, rather than having to go out Penwood, which won't be signalized, or back #'~'" around and out to get to -- it just allows the interconnectivity and allows another way to 51t get to a signal -- future signalized intersection. `; ~ Borup: Well -- and that was the point that I thought made a lot of sense, but they do -- I >, ~~~ mean it's a few hundred feet down, but they have access by coming down to here and over to Corporate, which is not a great hardship. ~`I ~.r. Hood: Mr. Chair, that Isn t a done deal either. Fifth Street isn t extended all the way to ~~';~'I Corporate. So, if that doesn't develop for another 40 years, that -- you know, that ;- connection is not there today, so depending on the timing of the property directly to the ~- 'i -, south or the other extension of 5th Street to Corporate, depending on which one goes first -- I imagine they won't go together, so one of them is going to be constructed first ,,P' ~ and maybe one of them is not connected at all, but if we lose the 3rd Street, then, we rely on 5th Street to go through. h~- ~ Borup: Right. One or the other needs to go through. I think you would agree with that. ; Ballantyne: I would agree. So, I need to build another, just in case the other one that I ~Y already built doesn't connect through? Borup: Well, you built this one down to what point? To here? ~. Ballantyne: To our property line. No. To here. So, it's got about 50 feet to go. Borup: Oh, you're clear down to here. ;;,' Ballantyne: Fifty to seventy-five feet. You know, I understand Mr. Hood's logic. I mean we want connectivity. We want people to be able to get in and out of the park, but I have already built a connection to the future Corporate Drive extension that -- you know, ' and I have spent money for it to connect and so I have got to build another one just in !!' ~ case the one that I built, that you told me I had to build, because Corporate is going to f„~;. '~ ~ be connected, just in case that one doesn't connect I got to build another one. Do you understand my logic? Like somebody has got to build Corporate Drive.

Our intent -- and these gentlemen, I think, w ill concur, i s w e h ave b een t old t wo o r t hree t imes t hat Corporate D rive i s a matter of months from being, you know, moved ahead and the whole reason we are trying to get Penwood through is we are doubtful that Corporate Drive will happen within the next five years and we want these folks to be a ble to get out to Meridian Road without having to go back to Franklin. Borup: So, do you know what the intentions of this property owner are at all? Ballantyne: This property owner brought application to the city a few years ago for a preliminary and final plat. The preliminary plat was approved with some conditions, which weren't acceptable to the applicant. They were going to work to amend the conditions. The applicant had a heart attack and put the property up for sale. The property is currently for sale. The preliminary plat I think just expired a few months ago, so they have to go through the process all again. Prior to that, this property here was illegally split off and deeded to the highway district as part of the Meridian Road improvement. The highway district ran a drain line here for an infiltration bed in order to meet the Clean Water Act. Borup: Yeah. I remember that. Okay. Ballantyne: And this is classified, I think, as a collector; is that right? Hood: Mr. Chair, that has, actually, changed and that's something that has changed since -- I think on the 20-25 map it is no longer designated as a collector roadway, it's only a local commercial street -- a future local, I think, commercial street and I think that just recently changed. Ballantyne: Was that because of the redesign there, I think? Originally, the intent of the highway district was to eliminate any access point here on Penwood, to cul-de-sac Penwood and bring all traffic from this area up through Corporate, as well as traffic out of the Mallard Landing Subdivision, I believe, as well as Troutner Business Park through Corporate. They amended that and replanned this and brought this road -- or intended to bring this road here. So, that's probably why they downgraded it from a collector to a local -- Hood: Local commercial. Yeah. Ballantyne: -- local commercial. Borup: Okay. Thank you. Questions from any of the Commissioners. Thank you. Commissioners, discussion? And probably, specifically, on Item No. 7, the vacation.

Page 62 of 83 -~ ,~ Borup: Yes. And how about north of Penwood? Zaremba: Well, Southwest 3rd Avenue -- I don't think that would ever connect to Franklin. The only option would be to curve it and come -- and connect it back over to 5th. That's probably not likely to happen either. So, the only person this really makes any difference to is the current applicant, who is asking for it to be vacated. So, going `1 north I don't have too much problem vacating that. Going south, it's kind of a toss up, ~~ but Cor orate is oin to have to o throw h sometime and if the have alread ~"' P 9 9 9 g y y put in a drainage line, that alignment probably isn't going to change, it's going to go right where A, it's i ndicated. And I think t he s outh - -the property o caner t o t he s outh h as e Hough access and, again, within his own property he doesn't mind giving up that access, he '`, has enough frontage on Penwood. I probably could go along with supporting everything r; the applicant is asking for on the vacation. I agree with staffs concern, but I also agree that Corporate, eventually, is going to have to be there and I think that will solve the ~ concern. Personal opinion. ~~ Borup: Well, I think it looks like connectivity concern is answered. The connection . here is a lot shorter also. _~ Rohm: As long as that goes in. ~_~ Borup: Well, it's going to go in if that property ever develops Zaremba: Eventually, it will have to. It's just -- it's a matter of timing, I suppose. And I can't see that it's going to go anywhere else, because they already have their drain or ' '' pipe or whatever -- they already have that right of way established. It's not going to ~~r ~ suddenly make S curves and go off somewhere else. Borup: Okay. `~~-~~'~" Zaremba: So, let's see, we still have the Public Hearing open on the other part.

It's that a use not otherwise listed in the schedule of uses would have to come to you as a CU or if it's listed as a CU in the C-G zone. Zaremba: Thank you. I think I actually understood it that way, but I misstated it when I was making my comments.

The next item is Items No. 9 and 10, Public Hearing AZ 03-030, z:,_-~- °~' ' , ~ request for annexation and zoning of 2.8 acres from R-6 to L-O and C-G zones for . ~. Southern Springs Subdivision No. 2 by the Land Group. Accompanying that is PP 03- 036, request for preliminary plat approval of five commercial building lots on the same 2. 8 acres. I'd like to open both Public Hearings at this time and start with the staff report. r Hawkins-Clark: Thank you, Chairman Borup, Members of the Commission. This -- Item ':-r No. 9 is the annexation and zoning request. The acreage is identical to the next item. fi~rrr Annexation and zoning and plat are the same. Southern Springs No. 1, the City Council approved just a couple of months ago. That's zoned C-G to the west. The Ten Mile ~: Creek runs here along this east boundary and if you recall, a pathway, a public multi- use pathway, was quite a big part of the discussion on this project, running along the creek and so that does not affect this parcel. That was all contained on Southern ~~ ~:; Springs No. 1. The project is surrounded with Country Terrace Subdivision and Running Brook Estates. There are .six or seven lots that, actually, touch the parcel. Gold's Gym, as you know, is located across the street. Here off of I-84 ACHD has a <_'<~~ new storm water lot. This is an existing house in Ada County immediately across the street on several acres that has not been annexed and, of course, Meridian Ford is in the area. So, they have requested a rezone to two different zones. They are j.' proposing to split zone the property. This is their boundaries on their legal description ~e ..: for t heir r ezone, e ssentially, L -O a djacent t o e xisting residential and C -G adjacent t o ~= '" ' Southern S nn s No. 1, which is also C-G. Staff is recommendin a royal of the P ~ 9 9 PP ;; annexation. As I outlined in the staff report, it is designated for medium residential on ;?~ .•~ the future land use map, so we do feel that even though the map doesn't explicitly W` ~: Y.~: support the proposed zone change, there are text policies that support a movement of the commercial, nonresidential uses, into this area. Probably two of the main ones are the fact that they do have the existing commercial uses immediately adjacent and it is °; the same developer, Mitchner Investments, and the Overland Road really is not "{ ~` conducive to single family detached h ousing, particularly adjacent to the f uture retail }<`" here in Silver Springs One, so, we -- or Southern Springs One. I'm sorry. So, we feel a: like there are adequate policies in the Comp Plan to support it. As I pointed out, there ~~; 1 ~ a' ~ ;,t ~.

Hark's Corner on Linder and Franklin, as well as Office Jet Subdivision on Locust Grove were both designated for residential and they were approved for Comp Plan -- I'm sorry, they were approved for offices without a Comp Plan amendment. So, we don't take these lightly. We do look closely to whether or not it's justified and to not require a Comp Plan amendment. Unlike Stapleton Subdivision near the wastewater treatment plant, which, if you recall, that -- that's still -- we did required a Comp Plan amendment on that. So, we really just try to look at all the surrounding area to make that determination. So, we have recommended approval on that Item No. 9. On Item No. 10, the preliminary plat, they are requesting five different commercial building lots. Again, the L-O lots here on the east and south and, then, there are two commercial C-G lots. All of the thoughts in the subdivision are -- they range in size from .46 acres to .62, so they are all below two-thirds of an acre in size. Their application projects about 7,600 square feet of new commercial retail on these two lots and, then, about 15,000 square feet of office on these three L-O lots. They are proposing a private street that would extend from Overland Road and curve toward Southern Springs No. 1. They are proposing to construct a bridge across the Ten Mile Creek that would connect into their private commercial driveway system. Private streets are required to be approved by the City Council. Other than that, the code really gives us v ery I ittle guidance as to when and where private streets are allowed. I pointed out what I think is the only other instance in the entire ordinance where private streets are talks about and it's really not even explicit, it just states at the beginning of the subdivision ordinance that generally all new streets in Meridian should be dedicated as public. So, really, these private street issues come up when -- usually the street's self contained within a single project and there is no existing stub streets around to use, as well as where they possibly want to have a little more control over the use of the street, the maintenance of the street. In this case it would clearly provide a -- really carry quite a bit of traffic, so we have made recommendations to you that the street be designed carefully and no parking, but provide curb, gutter, sidewalk, so it would, essentially, function as a public street. The right of way proposed is 29 feet. I mean a 42-foot right of way, a 29-foot street section. Borup: Was that the reason for the private street request, because of the right of way width? Hawkins-Clark: Chairman, no reason was given in the application specifically, but -- Borup: Maybe we will find out later. Hawkins-Clark: Yeah. Borup: Thank you. Zaremba: The bridge across the canal would include sidewalks? Hawkins-Clark: Yes. Yeah. It would connect to the future pathway that we hope goes somewhere someday.

Hawkins-Clark: There is also a question of street frontage and the -- well, (guess -- I ' take that back. They really could -- they could meet the minimum street frontage in the F~`;~~ L-O. The C-G does not have a minimum street frontage in the zoning ordinance. The '~ L-O does. So, if they just did a common driveway through here, they would have to flag these L-O lots out to Overland in order to get frontage on a street. W e have :~- considered frontage to be deemed acceptable on a private street in the past. So, I ~~ ' ` think there is -- the Commission and later Council, you know, really, should review these S`';_ on a case-by-case basis in terms of the private street request and make the finding that - you think that it is a situation where a private street is acceptable. The highway district simply stated their -- you know, their standard condition that you got to provide 30 feet ~ ~° of improved surface, you know, back from their Overland Road right of way and they have to, obviously, provide the sidewalk and curb and gutter on Overland Road, which, ~~ ~ ' -- actually, I believe is already completed as part of the Overland Road widening project. We have received in the record two letters from adjacent property owners, Jeffrey Rowe and I believe the last name Gauge, stating that they are in support of the project. We ~>;~ did ask the applicant to contact all of the adjacent property owners, since this does -- ~E this was designated for medium density residential, asking them to get the specific ~' ~ ~n:,z support of the adjacent property owners. I think Mr. Koga, the applicant, can address F; _ ~~'~° that further in terms of where he's at with those contacts. Other than that, I think the ry~ standard conditions are -- have all been discussed with the applicant, I think in general ~~''~ ~ agreement with them. There is -- we have asked for a temporary turnaround to be 3~=` constructed if Southern Springs No. 1, the northern portion is not constructed. When ;z ;: ~; , this bridge is built, we would, obviously, need the emergency turnarounds on the east side of T en Mile Creek for emergency services and I will just show you a slide that ~y, shows both projects together and how they connect. The one comment that we got <',.,~' ~: from a special consideration from the highway district was they had concern about the alignment of this bridge coming across the Ten Mile that it should not be in direct `~ : alignment with the drive -- with the driveway curb cut onto Meridian Road, State ~'~ ' Highway 69. They had a lot of concern about cut-through traffic through this private ~'` street going out onto Meridian Road. You know, they are backed up on Overload Road westbound and they would use this to cut through a subdivision, so they did send an e- mail today stating that as long as the city's comfortable, basically, with the placement of ~~ ` these buildings and us working with the applicant when these come through to make ~,~,; ~~~,,,;, sure that there is not acut-through opportunity, that they are less concerned with that. ,. I don't believe that the Idaho Transportation Department has made a final decision on Southern Springs No. 1 and where their curb cuts would be. If you recall, that was somewhat up in the air when it came through and it's still undecided. t : - Borup: But that configuration showing here and here right now? ;~ ~.•~ Hawkins-Clark: That's correct. ._~•, ,. ., ,, •_ . r. °p ~I I ~' ~ ,_ II ~ I ~~~ ~~,, ~ , ~ ,>„ . ~, ~ ~~ ~ -4~~E jr~t~r ~ ' as ~e ._ 'a . ~ 1 ,; f c ~~;" s, ~d~11~ r a z ~~ ~x~~ ti 1 4,i4 $,v u~. ~~~'. ~r~ ~!'I ,. ,~' ~~~~~ ~.- ~:~~ x ft •c;r "~ _ ~_~. ~f .~ '~ Yt 'y _.

We did fry'; ask for a site plan to be submitted for this L-O lot, which is -- has somewhat of a strange configuration, but here is the proposed layout that they submitted that shows putting the ~ ~ office building in this flag portion of that lot number three, taking access here. There is ;; .,_ a hundred foot wide easement from Nampa-Meridian Irrigation on this and so they have unbuildable 50 feet and as you can see they have just shown parking in this "~ Nampa-Meridian Irrigation easement, so the structure is well outside of that. I think ,t that's all I have at this point. Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 ~~; Page 70 of 83 Koga: Yeah. Borup: So, then, it would be private from the cul-de-sac on if you crossed the bridge. ~;~~. Koga: Correct. Yeah. For example, Mr. Chairman, if we do not have a bridge, it makes Ff~' sense to have a public road with a cul-de-sac there. But with some type of bridge to '~~ continue down there, it just didn't make sense, so that's why our request is for the private road. Borup: Okay. Koga: Secondly, the rhyme and reason for the split rezoning for L-O and C-G, because ~¢: of the small site, it doesn't make sense to do any type of development for single family. ,,.. ~~- ~; The other option could be something like apartments, but we are trying to be sensitive ~ ` +~ with the neighbors, so we thought the best use for the land for some type of buffer is having an L-O zone and use the L-O for office single -- or single level office buildings as a buffer for the neighbors. Up to the northwest with the C-G we feel that ties better with the other Southern Springs No. 1 and with the good buffer from the L-O zone we feel ~: ` . it's -- have enough mitigation buffer to the neighbors. Regard to the neighbors, I'd like "` to talk a little bit further. You do have two letters from John Gauge and from Jeff Rowe, w who do support the project. Since, then, we have -- early we put together a community ~~: -- asked for a neighborhood meeting. Excuse me. Only two people came. And so we were kind of disappointed. Just recently we went back -- I went from house to house along both -- along Country Terrace Road and put additional letters into their mailbox and I d id receive two more phone calls this morning. Excuse m e. One f rom Mrs. Voss and the other one from Mr. Harmon and they live -- Mr. Harmon lives right here, Mrs. Voss lives right here. Excuse me. Mr. Gauge lives right here. Both Mrs. Voss and Mr. Harmon on the phone have supported this development. They felt it was a good use of the land. They understand that housing -- or typical housing would not ~~~`\ ~~ ~.~- ~' work and at the same time they do not care for any type of apartments or that type of ~~ development. So, they support the project. As a matter of fact, they thought it was a • ~ ; good idea, because they wanted to get some type of development to that land, it's ~~' somewhat -- it does not match with the environment, that area. And the other letter you ~~ ` ~ ~ have is from Jeff Rowe -- Jeff Rowe in this area right here. I also have a letter right '~ ` `~ now I'd like to submit to you from John Bolvet and we have -- let's see if I can -- these >_~ ~~w two particular lots are somewhat special. Case in point, all of these lots along here are ~ ~ °;:" higher in elevation than our development over here, so everybody -- all the neighbors _ fi`r' `= here feel pretty comfortable with a requirement of a fence and landscape will take care _ of the buffer for them. These two residences are lower -- a lower area and so they look up north towards Southern Springs area. So, we spent an extra time on site with those ' ` " few owners to come up with an agreement to improve the buffer and, Brad, do you have K that one section? We came up with an agreement -- and you will notice on both of those ' ~' letters that they do support that we put together a berm and this berm would be ~ 1 ~.:,J anywhere from five to seven feet tall. We are limited on the height by the width of our 3 ~ ;.; ' ' , I y`~,,,, , landscape buffer, but we feel comfortable we can get anywhere from five to seven feet ~; {. . ~f}; .y`. f, '; 4 ~.- k• ~~t :"Jr2,f:'n ~~, es~ *~ ~ ~e~ iyx ~ Y ~Y Y (~ zt. 4. ;..T:~• Meridian Planning & Zoning December 4, 2003 Page 71 of 83 =~ height on the berm and on top of our berm we will also provide a six foot vinyl fence. ?' <~ So, from the neighbor's site, they basically have 11 to 12 foot buffer on their side.

And I know the neighbors don't want a bunch of four-plexes there either. So, I think it's a great project, I think it's a good use for that, and if you were in my shoes I don't know that you would see any other alternative for it either. I think it will beautify the neighborhood. It will clean t he p lace u p. It's r Bally n of s omething you'd w ant t o t ry and r ebuilt o r f ix u p either, because it's not going to be resalable as a residential property. So, anyway, if you have any questions or -- ir: ;; h .. ~: Borup: Thank you. I think that makes sense. Thacker: Thank you. Borup: Anyone else? Are you, sir, for -- okay. That concludes the testimony. Zaremba: I think the applicant has made a good case that this should never be residential and staff has provided their support for that theory. Borup: And the only residential would be multi-family and we have heard many, many times how neighbors feel about that. They'd much rather have office buildings. Zaremba: Well, I'm certainly in favor of multi-family housing some places, but I think the C-G with the L-O buffer around it is perfect for this particular location and application. I'm not sure I even would have supported multi-family there myself. So, I'm in favor of their idea and in favor of the bridge over the canal to connect the two projects and I commend the applicant for spending time with the neighbors that makes life so much easier for us when you do that. I think that's great. Borup: Okay. Are we ready to close the hearing? Zaremba: Mr. Chairman, I move we close public hearings on Items 9 and 10. Mathes: Second. Borup: Motion and second. All in favor? MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES. Zaremba: Let's see. Staff has asked us to make a couple discussions. I think we are substantially in agreement with what lies behind the Comprehensive Plan for this area, even if the Comprehensive Plan does say residential. I would find that this complies with any sensible development for that area. Borup: Yeah. And staff did a good job on that. A couple things I underlined was the Comprehensive Plan says it's a guide, a general way.

You're just not going to see those go on to a 6-acre lot, such as ~~~>~< a truck stop or something like that, so we just simply wanted to raise it for your s~G~';R =n; discussion. `° Zaremba: Okay. I, personally, am comfortable without the DA there. The preliminary plat, the proposed private street, I think that's a good solution and with the bridge connecting to the other section, as long as there is a sidewalk along all of it, including r the bridge, I see no problem for it being private. Configuration of buildable area of Lot '~ 3. The only comment I have on that is whenever something comes before us there ~. ~~~ `` needs to be across-access agreement with what I think was Lot 2 since it does show ~µ`'w , Lot 2 using Lot 3. I realize it's a conceptual, but Lot 2's only access is through Lot 3, so just a reminder that at some point there needs to be across-access agreement. Does that need to be on the plat? Hawkins-Clark: Yes, it would. Zaremba: Okay. ?~it~ i ~~,', ` Hawkins-Clark: Yes. Zaremba: Okay. Potential temporary turnaround.

The next and last item is Public Hearing AZ 03-026, request for annexation and zoning of 5. 11 acres from R-T to C-G and I-L zones and open the Public Hearing at this time and ' start with the staff report. Siddoway: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I will stand for any questions. =~~ Zaremba: So moved. .; ~ , _ Siddoway: Okay. You should have our staff report with December 4th hearing date and ~: transmitted November 25th. This is a proposed annexation for the Cortabitarte parcel. " Actually, a lot, which, I guess, is an important designation in this case. It's an existing ~:. `''~' five-acre lot on the south side of Fairview. The proposal is to annex it to the city. It's . < currently contiguous with the Treasure Valley Business Center along its eastern Y boundary. The front lots along Fairview are currently vacant in Treasure Valley k'' Business Center. These rear two are occupied by the Food Services of America ~~`'' project, which is proposing to expand its parking lot onto the rear portion, although that tr : proposal is not specifically involved in this application, it does factor into the reason why ~ we are recommending approval, even though there are not currently water and sewer _: services -- particularly sewer services to this property today. But the expansion of the parking lot for Food Services of America would not require sewer services. They are proposing a split zone on the property. The rear 3.4 acres is proposed to be I-L, which - would match the I-L zone of the Food Services of America lot. The remaining portion in - the front is proposed to be zoned C-G. There are three special considerations that I want to point out on page six. The first is that there is an existing residence on the front portion of this property where the C-G zone is proposed. A little difficult to see in this aerial photo, but it sits up in the front portion right up in here. When writing the staff ~~" report I was under the impression from the applicant that it was -- the house was currently vacant. Based on a phone call today, apparently, it's not and that's going to be the main issue that we need to discuss tonight. Upon annexation and zoning of the property to C-G, the residence will become a nonconforming use, if it's continued to be used for a residence. So, the staff recommendation was that the residential use should be abandoned upon annexation, so that we are not creating new nonconforming uses in the city. I know the applicant, based on the phone call today, does desire to continue residential use of that property for a time and I'll just ask the applicant to address that to "~'''~`~ the Commission. The second issue is the sewer service. There is no sewer service ;: , currently available to the property. We may have Bruce point out where the sewer is and how it will be sewered here in a moment, but the -- that commercial frontage that they are proposing will not be developable until that sewer service is extended to the property. Therefore, we are recommending a development agreement as part of this ;'`'~ < annexation. That allows f or t he p arking a xpansion t hat's p roposed o n the r ear, b ut ~ : ,.~! makes the commercial frontage undevelopable until the sewer service is available. The ~,~ third item is the split zoning. We usually don't recommend a split zone on a single "~``'~ ` piece of property. To rectify that situation, the applicant has submitted and is in s~ process, a lot line adjustment that shifts the lot line for the Food Services of America .• ; j project over to the pro osed zonin desi nation bounds That would make all of the p 9 9 rY ,..,..: ~:. r }a~ +•~ { 3 i3~ r 'p ~ 7 c '' • { I ~ h t -. b I ` ~ , ~,~~Y '^ . ar'~,;~ ~r ,r ~1 r: 'aK. ~~ 1 I ,:.i ~f [,, . ~~ ~E ' ~ ~: ~ . ;. ~ .S ::T. .

In talking with the city engineer, he's never done a lot line adjustment between i$'' ' two different subdivisions. Both of these are platted subdivisions, so it is, technically, "~' '' eligible for a lot line adjustment. He's looking into any issues related to the lot line adjustment and has agreed to put in writing a memo prior to the Council meeting.

I have four site-specific comments. All of the things that would T.~.<< be conditions of approval appear in number three under the development agreement =r ~, that we recommend. Those would be the conditional use process being required on '~ ~' any use on this property. That's required through the Comprehensive Plan, if you read =i through the findings, this is a mixed use community designation and, as such, requires F ":: a conditional use for any use on the property.

The third point, that the C-G remain undevelopable and, then, any other conditions deemed necessary by this ?z t ,~k Commission. With that, I will stand for any questions. !!:`F Borup: Questions from the Commission? Zaremba: Yeah. I do have one and it's, actually, whether or not you might agree to combine two of those thoughts. If the C-G portion of it is not going to be developable until there is sewer available, could we say, instead, that the existing residence shall be ~;~;~ abandoned when sewer is available, so that it could be rented as a residence until it can ' *~ be used otherwise? It currently can't be used otherwise. Can we say something like that, that the -- Siddoway: I know that's what the applicant would hope for. I don't know that it's hurting anything. It does create a nonconforming use situation. Zaremba: Until such time as there is sewer available and, then -- it's not going to be an ~'Y' ~;, ongoing nonconforming use, because at some point there will be sewer available and, then, we say it must be abandoned as a residence. Siddoway: As soon as -- as soon as the sewer is available to the property; is that what you're saying? Zaremba: Yeah. Whether or not they hook into it, as soon as it is available it must be abandoned as a residence. But until it's available it can't be used for anything else, so it seems a little unfair to say it's got to be abandoned tomorrow, but there won't be sewer for six months or two years.

The issue -- and I think you have pretty much resolved them -- is that we want to continue to use the residence while we can, at the same time offering it for sale and hoping that someone wants to extend the sewer down Fairview. That's been our anticipation is what they'd .:~~ have to do and I believe it's on the north side of Fairview. I know that the other '''~'`` properties on the south side and some of the ones that are even annexed are not connected to sewer, but we don't plan on anticipating or changing the use until such time as we have sewer and we are agreeable with that.

If there was not a conditional use required, we would probably need to address it now, but the fact that a conditional use would be required for any use in the future, that gives us the opportunity to address the stubbing of access to other properties at that time. We can also deal with the idea of -- if the lot line adjustment for some reason is not allowed and we end up needing to plat this property, which may not be necessary, we can -- we just checked and there is no frontage requirement for I-L, so we could create this as an I-L -- the lower portion as an I-L lot with across-access easement over the front portion, if it comes to that. But I recommend just leaving that out of this motion at this time and we can deal with it at City Council, if necessary. Borup: Assuming that we will get the lot line adjustment approved. Siddoway: Yeah. Because the lot line adjustment is submitted and I did verify that the city engineer has it, but seeing as how this -- the boundary adjustment is between city property and county property, they can't do a lot line adjustment until both properties are in the city, so he's holding it until -- you know, pending the outcome of this application. Borup: Okay. Okay. Does that answer it? Except for the question on the residence and -- sir, you were going to address that? Cortabitarte: Mr. Chairman and Commission Members, my name is Jack Cortabitarte. I live at 3115 Crescent Rim Drive, Boise, Idaho. The residence was owned by my uncle, who passed away three years ago and three years prior to that I took care of him and put him in a nursing home, so the home has, actually, been vacant for six years and our intention is, if we get this zoning that we are asking of C-G, that we will put the property up for sale and when I saw the staffs most recent considerations on the existing residence, to say that it should be abandoned immediately, it is now. But we have a problem and why I'm asking and requesting your consideration to remove that contingency that it be abandoned. It recently was burglarized, vandalized, and I'm working with the Ada County sheriffs department on the property. We are doing two things as a family. We are improving the landscaping around the property, so it doesn't appear to be abandoned and vacant, which it currently does. And, second of all, our family would like the option that if the vandalism continues on this property, that we can put a family member or someone in the residence to watch the property until such time the property is sold. And by having this consideration that the property immediately has to be abandoned and the reality that we may not sell this property tomorrow, we are asking for reconsideration of that on the residence. We would be more than willing to have a time zone or if you say until we sell it or until sewer comes, if I understand that correctly, we are open to all of that. Our intent is not to do anything other than have the leeway to put someone in that property if we have to keep it safe.

And, actually, I would like to add one more issue, if I can. I think we all received a copy of a letter from Carla Eberhart to Planning and Zoning and clerks, thanking us for changing Glacier Springs from R-8 to R-4 and, then, giving a list of ~~ 1'°= names of individuals that she wanted to notified if anything on Glacier Springs or F,. ~~?,•,~.. ''°~~~ Calderwood Subdivision ever came up. I would like to suggest that there be a response '~ ' to t his I etter.

Okay. So, it's thanking us for doing something the City Council did. Powell: Yeah. - Zaremba: The minutes they sent us said approved and didn't show the change. Okay. 6'~; So, then, that really did get changed. But my other question would be whether we want to get into keeping records of individuals that want to be notified on random projects and ~~ `' I still would write them a letter thanking them for their interest and saying we publish it in the paper, we put signage on the property, we notify everybody that lives within 300 feet, beyond that we are not able to notify individuals of -- Borup: I felt exactly the same way. ~: '~I -~~ _~F:. 5-: ;_ ~I .,~; _...; .~ Zaremba: And I guess I would direct staff to compose such a letter and send it. Powell: It sounds like a good one for the clerk's office. Zaremba: Okay. That's fine. Well, it was addressed to the clerk as well, so -- Borup: And especially with larger projects and the size of the signs that are up there, I mean that's a lot of notification. Zaremba: But we should write them a letter thanking them for their interest and explaining that we can't do that, notify individuals on projects. Borup: Individuals beyond the normal notification.
