Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting August 16.2001
The regularly scheduled meeting of the Meridian Planning and zoning
Commission was called to order at 7:00 P.M. on Thursday, August 16, 2001, by
Chairman Keith Borup.
Members Present: Keith Borup, Bill Nary, Jerry Centers, and Sally Norton (late)
Members Absent: Keven Shreeve.
Others Present: Bruce Freckleton, Steve Siddoway, Larry Moore, Tara Green,
and Will Berg.
Item 1. Roll-call Attendance:
X Sally Norton X Jerry Centers
X Bill Nary O Keven Shreeve
X Chairman Keith Borup
Borup: Good evening ladies and gentlemen. We would like to begin our
regularly scheduled session of the Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission
and begin with roll call of the Commissioners. Commissioner Norton has
mentioned she'll be a little late this evening. She is not here at this time.
Item 3. Consent Agenda:
A. Approve minutes of June 21, 2001 Planning and Zoning
Special Workshop:
B. Approve minutes of July 19, 2001 Planning and Zoning
Regular Meeting:
Borup: The first item on the agenda is approval of the minutes from the June
21St, July 19th. The July 19th I think was carried over from our last meeting
because I think we didn't have a quorum of those that were at that meeting and
those that weren't here hesitated to approve the minutes. Anyway, that's on for
tonight.
Nary: Mr. Chairman.

Item 4. Continued Public Hearing from June 21, 2001: PP 00-023
Request for Preliminary Plat approval of 30 building lots and 2
other lots on 16.4 acres in an R-4 zone for proposed Autumn Faire
Subdivision No. 2 by Gemstar Properties, LLC -east of North
Black Cat Road and south of West Ustick Road:
Borup: Item No. 4 is a Continued Public Hearing from June 21St, request for
Preliminary Plat, 30 building lots 16.4 acres for proposed Autumn Faire
Subdivision. Do we have any additional information from staff on that? I don't
think I see the applicant here.
Siddoway: Mr. Chairman and Commissioners this application is for the
subdivision on the west side of Black Cat. There is a letter from the applicant
dated today, I don't know if you got copies in your -- okay. This has been
continued for some time. They are working out issues on sewer with the Public
Works Department so they've requested to be deferred for an additional 30 days.
If you want specifics on what they're working on I'll defer that to Bruce.
Borup: I don't know if it matters to -- so they want it for our next meeting a month
from now, which would be September 20~'?
Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, I'll give you just a little bit of an update. Our
consultant, J-U-B Engineers has been working on some modeling for us and we
have received some first cuts of the output of that. We're basically in the process
of just trying to analyze that data and make some determinations on our own.
spoke with Brad Watson this afternoon about it and he figured everything would
be wrapped up towards the end of August, first part of September. I think if we
went to the 20~" of September we would be safe.
Borup: Okay. Thank you.
Nary: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Commissioner Nary.
Nary: Although this might become Spring Faire Subdivision by the time we
actually hear this project, I would go ahead and move to continue Item 4, the PP
00-023 Autumn Faire Subdivision No. 2 to our September 20~' meeting.
Centers: I would second that.

~ ~, r~
Borup: Item No. 5 is also a Continued Public Hearing from June 21St, request for
' '" ' a Conditional Use Permit for expansion of the Chamber Office and visitor's
center in a C-G zone for the Meridian Chamber of Commerce. We have the
previous staff report. I think we've got our revised plans and a layout so Mr.
f ~>~~ Siddoway.
~ a Siddoway: Mr. Chairman and Commissioners. You should have an updated
„ staff report dated August 8, 2001 on this project. It is the Chamber of Commerce
~' ~' and visitor's center building that is in Storey Park. Storey Park as a whole is
"~~ outlined in red. You can see the speedway as a landmark. It's easy to recognize
but the Chamber of Commerce building sits just off of Franklin in this location
. ~s here currently zoned C-G. All the surrounding zoning is, across Franklin Road its
},;k Old Town. This is the revised site plan. You'll recall if you remember the original
site plan it was coming out to the east which was over the existing irrigation
~~ easement for I believe it's the Nine Mile -- the Nine Mile Drain I think. They have
revised their plan since that would not work. The existing building is remaining
where it is. The new addition projects out front. The existing parking is
remaining as is. There is an optional addition that does go out to the west. They
are reconfiguring the restrooms in that location for use by the park users. No
~~ ~: particular points of contention to point out so, I'll just let the staff report stand as
-:~:~' is and stand for comments.
" ~ `~-' Borup: Okay thank you. Is there anything that the applicant wanted to add?
F> ~` Driscoll: (Inaudible).
Borup: Any questions from any of the Commissioners? I think the main problem
. ~ ~`~; before is the building was over the easement and the Irrigation District wouldn't
"'~ approve it.

Nary: I only have one question. Probably Steve can answer it. The optional
addition, isn't really optional? They are going to build that. That's part of what
we're approving?
(Inaudible discussion amongst Commission members)
Borup: The optional addition I believe is the restroom that the City is going to be
paying for.
Driscoll: Mr. Chairman and Commissioners my name is Bill Driscoll. I'm the
President of Meridian Chamber of Commerce. The optional addition actually is
not going to be built. I mean we are going to expand the restrooms to the west,
making them bigger at the request of the Parks Department but that optional
addition was we were considering going that way as opposed going south. Then
we decided it was best to go south.
Borup: Okay.
Driscoll: So that optional is not being -- it's on the east.
Borup: The building plan we have does not even show the optional addition
then?
Driscoll: No it does not.
Borup: Okay.
Driscoll: I mean the restrooms will extend to the west some to accommodate the
new fixtures.
Nary: Just so I understand Mr. Chairman on this floor plan that I'm looking at
that's dated July 24~' that shows the floor plan and it shows where the restrooms
are. It shows some additional like 13 and a half feet or approximately extended
out. Is that part of what's --
Driscoll: It is part of that optional addition.
Nary: Okay, so that part is going to be built? That's what we're approving?
Driscoll: Yes.
Nary: It's not quite as far over as that --
Driscoll: Yes.
Nary: Okay that's great.

Borup: Item No. 6 is another Continued Public Hearing request for a Conditional
Use Permit for a dual restaurant drive-thru in a C-G zone for Kentucky Fried
Chicken by G&H Enterprises. They've submitted a new revised site plan. We do
have the ACRD report now. Any additional information Mr. Siddoway.
Siddoway: Actually we don't have an ACRD report based on the revised plan.
We have the original one and some modifications have been made. Such as
removing one of the driveways. However, ACRD does want the chance to review
this new plan and have a chance to submit comments. You should have an
updated letter from David McKinnon in our office dated August 9, 2001 stating
that these revised plans were submitted on August 7th and that we don't expect
comments back from the agencies until after this meeting. So, we recommend
continuing this one as well until September 6th or the 20th. Generally these would
go to the second meeting as a continued item which would be the 20th. So that
staff will have a chance to review and incorporate any additional comments that
may be generated by the new site plan from the other agencies.
Borup: A point of clarification. This the new revised plan is not the one ACHD --.
Are you sure? That is not the one ACHD reviewed?
Siddoway: No it is not. The original plan is what ACHD reviewed. They have
requested and opportunity to comment on this revised one.
Borup: Okay. I guess I was under the impression they had reviewed this one.
Nary: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Commissioner Nary.
Nary: Yes, it appears at least the ACHD report indicates Commission it says
June 27th August 1St. Then this plan is dated the 7th.
Borup: The dates don't -
Centers: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Commissioner Centers.
Centers: I guess I would agree with the planner. You know that's a heavily
trafficked corner there if you want to call it a corner, intersection, whatever. So, I
think they do need to look at that report. It could be interesting. Unless there's
further discussion, I'd like to move that we postpone it to a meeting September
20th? Do you think --

Borup: Is the applicant here or his representative? They must have been
planning on that anyway.
Siddoway: They've had a copy of this -
Borup: Letter?
Siddoway: -- memo since -
Borup: Okay.
Siddoway: Their preference is to be continued to September 6~' but the 20~' is
the standard time.
Borup: The site changes, they eliminated an entrance which was the main
objection from ACHD.
Siddoway: Yes, there are also some sidewalk issues that need to be worked out.
Borup: That's one other thing I wondered. Did they get the right-of--way thing
worked out with them?
Siddoway: I don't know.
Borup: I didn't see an indication that it really was.
Siddoway: They were negotiating on amounts of right-of--way about what
sidewalk is to be built. What sidewalk is to be bonded for future construction?
The width of the driveway is a point of contention. They're showing 40 feet.
ACRD allows, on the revised plan they're showing 40 feet. ACHD allows only 35
as the maximum generally so they are working through some of those issues
with ACRD still. I'm prepared to comment on some of the issues that we've
identified but I don't know that that's relevant at this point.
Borup: Okay were you prepared to make a motion Commissioner Centers?
Centers: Yes. Continuing on I would like to move that we postpone Item 6 the
CUP 01-021 request for a Conditional Use Permit for a restaurant and drive
through for KFC by G&H Enterprises. Postpone that until the September 20~'
meeting.
Nary: Second.
Borup: Motion is seconded. We have an open agenda for that night so we have
the two continued right now is all.

come forward? The applicant prefers not to. Come on up. Oh, you changed
your mind? You do want to? Okay.
.~, ~, r..;,.~;
Brown: Kent Brown, Briggs Engineering 1800 West Overland Boise Idaho.
Since we last met we've met with the Greenhill Neighborhood Association and
made the presentation to them and have discussed it with them. We've also met
with the Woodbridge Builder's Team and have discussed things with them
numerous times. In fact that's where we were out in the hall finalizing one of
their proposals and going through that. As a part of some of the notations from
the Greenhill Neighborhood Association, they voiced a concern that this would
create strip development on the south side of Franklin Road. As you know from
the Comprehensive Plan, the Comprehensive Plan calls for this to be estate
housing from there to the corner of Eagle and Franklin. In my opinion that would
not create that kind of strip development necessarily storage units. As you look
at them, I think should be viewed as a residential use. They're a -- quite mobile
home park that people take up spaces and visit infrequently and yet they own a
space. It would be like having a mobile home park in Arizona during the
summertime, most everybody goes back home where it's a little cooler. They
also spoke to different building types on the backside of the building and the
discussion about having some shrub. As I discussed it with our Landscape
Architect, we have put shrubs up against the building with the tree line that was
originally discussed with the Planning and Zoning Commission previously. This
upper view, the CC section would show that with the shrubs and would help
break up that wall because it is 22 feet high. It should be noted here in this area
that there would be a cut of about 6 feet and by the time you got here where our
first phase it would be a 1 foot cut along there along the property line from a
grading standpoint. So, the building would be a little bit lower in that location and
would allow the trees to be a little bit taller in that area. That's how we propose
to work with those ideas.
Borup: Is this the Landscaping Plan that the association saw or a previous one?
Brown: The previous one is the one that was at our last hearing. It showed a
line of trees --
Borup: Okay. They didn't show the --
Brown: They mentioned in the discussion that the trees will take a while to
screen the buildings and asked about having some shrubs or something
underneath --
Borup: That's what's showing is adding the shrubs?

Brown: Right.
Borup: So, you've still got a mixture of trees with the -
Brown: Correct.
Borup: -- evergreen mixed in.
1~
~~
Brown: So, we've got trees and shrubs here. Those shrubs against the building
will work with an ability to help break up that wall in our opinion. Without
changing the construction material. We're still proposing to put all metal on that
backside but put shrubs closer to the building to help give that wall depth by
having the shrubs closer to it.
Borup: With that grade cut you're talking about that's going to have a taller
foundation, concrete foundation up to that point. The retaining wall -
Brown: (Inaudible) as we have the water that's going to other direction so we
don't really have --
Borup: So, it would just be graded down to that point from the subdivision? Oh,
okay, you've got a cross section.
Brown: In meeting with, initially with the Woodbridge people there was a
discussion that what they would like is 130 feet here along the southerly
boundary to act as a park for additional space along the greenbelt that will
eventually go in there. They asked for a continuous building to be put at that
130-foot mark that we go east west to help screen that. They also asked -
Borup: Their letter said 120. They probably wouldn't mind 130.
Brown: We're going to the 120 -
Borup: Oh, you're getting to that? Okay.
Brown: If you'll be patient with me. They asked for some open space to help
break up the roofline here and to put some trees between Phase 1 and Phase 2.
After we had those discussions with them we modified our plan. We pulled the
units further away and in our original plan we had just a building here. Now
we've put the covered storage. We've left an opening for the sewer people to
have access. It has a 2-fold effect. As you look at our building lengths, we are
under the requirement for us to have the fire, one hour two hour walls that block
puts into them. These would just be pitched roofs and by keeping them this short
we're under the square footage that kicks in that requirement. We felt that that
was beneficial. These units here would also hopefully be under that frame and
not require that to break up the roof but also provides access to the sewer. What
,:.
~~~;.

Meridian Planning and Zoning Meeting e
August 16, 2001
Page 11
we've looked at is that the way we've had this proposed, we have 150 feet from
our property line to the closest point here at this building and as you look at the
common areas again for the Snorting Bull Development, we're still 110 feet from
the closest point to our building. At this point we're 80 feet from our property line
but the Woodbridge development has common area that's adjacent to that. Then
this building at an angle the closest point is 45 feet from our property line but that
45 feet is adjacent to the Woodbridge's open area and common area. With the
Five Mile Drain running between us, you basically have 40 feet on our side, 40
plus feet and then the Woodbridge's proposed alignment for the Five Mile
Pathway. We maintain that pathway being centered through here with trees on
either side of it. We feel that it meets adequately what the intent was. What this
proposed design does is keeps us as far away as possible from the buildable
units and yet lets us use the maximum of our space in the location next to their
common area but still provides and adequate pedestrian walkway for future
residents as they will travel on the greenbelt. We also proposed shortening the
units 13 through 17 and increasing the landscaping from our sewer manhole here
on our site to allow us to beef up more landscaping in that location. I met with the
Plants. They had testified in the previous meeting and said that I slighted them by
not visiting with them. Their concern was that we would have some kind of solid
fencing as they keep animals in their property. As we've met with the different
associations, Greenhill and Woodbridge and the Plants, what our plan is to put a
3 rail white vinyl fence around the entire site as best we can except where we
cross the Five Mile to help keep the animals in this second phase as well as to
screen our current property line. We have a barbed wire fence that's cedar split
poles currently, lots of it is falling down. We'd like to put that 3 rail fence all the
way around our project and then put chain link fence against our asphalt to
provide us with the security that we need. Between the first and second phases,
we would like to put that 3-rail vinyl fence in there until such time as we feel that
there's a security need. To somewhat go along with what the Woodbridge people
were concerned with we propose putting vines and shrubs along that fence
between the first and second phase.
Commissioner Norton arrives at 7:31 P. M.
Brown: One item that was brought up in our previous hearing was an error in our
dates. We have made that modification. Our purpose has always been 7 to 10
years in doing the second phase. One of the owners in the Greenhill
neighborhood association would prefer it to be quicker. As I understand he was
going to send you a letter asking for that to be quickened. We proposed and
moved the units around and propose putting a 2 12 pitch on all of our 30 foot
wide building at this end to help make them look more residential. We also
proposed blocking the ends and then putting metal over that so that there's a
change and trying to make them look a little more residential but still have that
permanency that we need and the low maintenance that we need.
Borup: Did you say two twelve or three twelve?

Brown: We proposed three twelve. This is what came from Woodbridge.
Borup: All those came from Woodbridge? Okay.
~" Brown: Just prior to the meeting we met with the Woodbridge people again and
the information that you were talking about where they're now --. After they saw
=~~~ our plan they modified it back to 120 feet from 130. We were in discussing that
''~ ~: when you called us forward. They asked us to lower the height of this building
~: and to put a berm across the back. We've come to agreement on many of those
'~~ "`~ items. Hopefully I can touch on most of those. They asked fora 10-foot
landscaping to be put on the west side of all of the storage units. We felt
comfortable with 6 and I think we've come to an agreement about that, to put
~~' ~' landscaping at the end of each one of these units. It will help soften them
:~ immediately even though this landscaping will go in way in advance, it will soften
~' the look of those building. We are also in agreement to change from block to
`` `
~, metal to create some texture on that end of the building. We are also in
r~ .
,~ ~~~ agreement with wrapping the block around the corners of the building on that
end.
' ~ ` Borup: Excuse, me. Do you have a copy of this?
Brown: I just barely got one just before the meeting. Yes.

°`~*~~ discussed with them a height of 14 feet and 20 feet for the height of that building
maintaining the same pitch. We discussed -

Borup: What was your original intention for that building to be?
s ` ~ ~ Brown: 17 and 22. The same as the one that's on the east side. We discussed
putting a berm of 5 feet in the trade off for those height exceptions. We're still at

planter. We're not opposed to A, B, C. D, we still feel that two twelve pitches is
adequate. As I researched this with other storage units that have recently been
placed. There's one to my knowledge that had a three twelve pitch. They also put
asphalt shingles on that one. The units themselves were within 25 feet of these
people's backyards and were taller buildings than the ones we're proposing.
Therefore we still feel that no matter how much we dress these up, these are still
storage units. They're going to look like storage units. We're not opposed to
doing them well but, -- and that's where we --. The fencing, item A, we're in
agreement with. Item B, we're in agreement with. Item A, again for the outdoor
storage we're in agreement with. I think that we've come to an agreement with
them. We really don't have soffit but it's lighting that's forcing down. There's not
going to be any pole. The same condition as the one that you've asked in your
staff report. The hours of operation, we're in agreement. D, I don't see any
problem with having the E or F to be reviewed. The phasing, we're committed to
5 to 10 years or 7 to 10 years.
Centers: Mr. Brown. You're concurring with his decorative block columns and the
wainscot that he's, decorative block waistcoat that he's -
Brown; Correct. The minimum of 3 feet, obviously we would like to do it a little
more.
Centers: And you didn't have that in your original plan?
Brown: No.
Centers: I've got to tell you I wasn't here July 5~'.
Brown: No, it was not on the original plan. They were strictly a metal building with
one and a half to twelve pitch at that point. Are there any questions?
Borup: So, essentially you say you're in agreement on everything except for,
under the site plan? Those items?
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Borup: I would say we're at --. Those are probably some modification. We'll
probably get some information from Mr. O'Neill and maybe not that far off.
Brown: We really aren't that far off. They have been meaning well to meeting with
us. When we figured the 130 feet, it figures to be just under an acre of ground. I
guess, I don't know if it's the principle of the thing or is it really needed to be
compatible. Squeezing the driving aisles down. We feel that we need that room.
They've in their site plan and I'm sure that they can explain that to you, they're
maintaining a similar square footage. I guess it -

Nary: How much buffer did you want again? Sorry. I just can't remember what
you said earlier. They want 120, in this suggestion. What was the amount that
you wanted?
Brown: In the plan that we proposed to them our narrowest point is 45. At this
point, but we're 150 at this point where we're closer to their houses.
Centers: How wide is that lateral and how wide is their common space. How
close are you to the closest house?
Brown: From the lateral going south, its 600 to 700 feet to their clubhouse is that
location. Since you weren't here for the previous meeting. We're looking at
developing the first phase.
Centers: Right, I got that.
Brown: And waiting 7 to 10 years on the second phase but putting in the
landscaping for the first phase.
Centers: Would you accept a condition that you could not develop it prior to 7
years?
Brown: Yes. We would want that condition.
Borup: The 150 feet was to the property line?
Brown: Yes it is.
Borup: So, the house would be in back from that?
Brown: Correct.
Nary: Mr. Chairman. My recollection was that there's some green space, there's
a clubhouse and then there's some houses. Isn't there parking, a green space
and then more houses?
Brown: There's a cul de sac on the opposite side of their residential collector that
comes in.

Nary: So, what I heard you say was on the side of the building where its
approximately 45 feet from your property line, its approximately 6 or 700 feet

that?

Nary: I see. So, the houses aren't directly south of that 45-point?
Brown: That's their open space.
Nary: That's all open space. It's a little bit more towards the west? It's out west?
Borup: There it shows again Bill up there on the screen.
Nary: Thank you. Is that right?
Brown: You're right. As you look at the site, their clubhouse and I'm guessing but
it's approximately 100 feet north of that collector, residential collector road. One
thing I would like to point out and it was discussed in the previous hearing, the
proposed uses for our commercial pad. As you look at the commercial zone that
we're in, there's many retail ones. We're not interested in any retail uses of this
site. We are looking at offices, business and sales offices, real estate sales, I
mean insurance offices. Those kind. Medical clinic, dental clinic, optometrists,
maybe an auto car wash or truck or moving rental, a U-Haul type of facility.
Centers: How big is that site?
Brown: Inside the landscaping is 121 by 161 and I'm looking for what that --..78
acres, something like that.
Centers; What?
Brown:.78
Centers: I have a question for staff. Excuse me. In the existing comprehensive
plan, what was the proposed zoning for this parcel?
Siddoway: Mixed planned use development.
Centers: How about the proposed new comp plan?
Siddoway: It's currently shown as commercial. In last year's draft it was shown as
residential.
Brown: It also shows a higher density residential to the west of us in the current
and proposed.
Borup: Any other questions from any of the Commissioners?
Nary: Mr. Chairman. Was there intention to either limit the uses of that
commercial property through a development agreement? I heard Mr. Brown say
~~~-<:,
5~~ .:

Meridian Planning and Zoning Meeting

they were not interested in certain types of development anyway. Was that one
of the conditions that I just don't recall?
Borup: But, you're not opposed to that?
Brown: Mr. Chairman, Commissioner Nary. Commissioner Nary in a previous
hearing had asked for us to come back with what kind of uses we would --.
Nary: Okay.
Brown: That was my purpose in doing that.
Nary: I wondered if there was some intention to then put some limitation on that
since --. The reason I asked that I noted in here that Greenhill Estates have the
concern I think they probably used a saying that the over development and strip
development. Since that's not the intention to put a drive through restaurant there
maybe that's something we want to -
Brown: We're not opposed to that.
Siddoway: The staff report simply says if annexed, all future uses shall be
required to go through the planned development process as a conditional use.
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Borup: Mr. O'Neill did you have some additional you'd like --? Did you have --
(inaudible from audience)
Borup: Do you have some things that you would like to add?
O'Neill: Mr. Chairman, Members of the Commission. My name is Derick O'Neill,
168 North Ninth Boise Idaho. I'm here tonight representing Woodbridge
community LLC, the builders in that community and the homeowner's
association. At your request and we appreciate it last meeting we have met with
the applicant several times. I think we're darn close to something that would work
for us and work for them.
Borup: From my notes, they're in agreement on everything, on items on your
letter, 22 3, 4, and 5 except maybe the roof pitch.
O'Neill: Yes, Ithink Ican -

O'Neill: Maybe I might just focus on that so we can move this forward. I think its
`~
~< important to note though that when we met with them a couple of times we asked
,
'~ '~ them if they'd mind us addressing the site plan and still achieving the same
< ~~~~.~~a amount of square footage or still getting them the same building are if we could
do it in a different way that would make them more compatible with us. They
{ ; ,~ were ameniable to that. The plan that we've shown still has the equivalent
amount of square footage as the earlier plan so they're not losing any storage
space. They are giving up some more space in terms of open space. I can
. T,
completely understand why they feel maybe the principle of that just isn't right.
~~y- We've tried to do a plan that gives them the same square footage building wise
x;.
which they'll be able to rent up and do the same thing. Then we've tried to do it
~~:~ so it buffers ourselves. In terms of the one condition No. A, no buildings located
-~ closer than 120 feet from the south property line. That's what we're showing on
=r ~~ the map here. We're also trying to show one continuous building. You can see
the elevation (inaudible) makes that a little bit softer feel from our neighbors. A

X.,

O'Neill: Yes, I think (inaudible). We would be more comfortable with it blocking off
the whole backside of the project (inaudible). Instead of the 2 buildings with the
,~ angle the way they have it. We feel that is very important to us. We also think it's
', ~`
~: ~: probably important to the city and could be a benefit for the city as well. As you
~'' know from Franklin Boulevard all the way up the St. Luke's area or Magic View,
~° ~ ~~ there will be a greenbelt for the city. We have already put in a portion of that and
will continue that in the second phase. They're going to put in a little portion of it
' "" =` and we think that would just make a better environment for people using the
greenbelt up and down. There's more purpose than just for us. We definitely feel
that makes it tie in and is much more residential in character. Item B, I do want to
'. clarify that. We do agree to 14 feet instead of 10 feet in the rear. We'd also agree
`"r to 20 feet instead of 16 feet in the rear. That is a correct change to that condition
~:~; if they want to do that. The landscape berm we would like to see changed to a
"~ ~~ ~' ~ minimum of 5 feet instead of 3. We're in agreement on that. The other item, the
internal landscape planter buffer 20 by 180 at the south end of phase 1
' (inaudible). We think that real important is there's houses up higher that are
going to be looking over this to break up all the buildings. We think that's just

worried about the long-term maintenance of it. We've got islands in projects.

```
`,~ O'Neill: -- there is a maintenance issue but I think overall it makes the project a
~' `~ much better project and something that fits into an area where there's residential
~~ -=~ around 3 sides of the project. The 10-foot planter on the west end of the building
• -~~: (inaudible). They're in agreement on that. We'll move it to 6-foot minimum. We're
a little concerned about that and the amount of space to put the landscaping in
but we're willing to do it in 6 feet. I think that could be a problem for them but 6
F~ feet will work so we're in agreement with that. Then under architecture, we think
' ~' that it is important to go to a three twelve roof pitch. We think that does give it a
,~ ~,~ ,~~~ more residential character. The cost involved is nothing major at all. There is not
a huge cost involved into it and I think it just makes the project better. Then the
rest of the conditions they agreed to, so I think those were the big issues. We're
- willing to move forward if these conditions are recommended up to the Council.
We think its good. They have worked well with us. I think they are continuing to

-R Smith: David Smith, 2166 East Autumn Way Meridian. I'm a member of the
-~ ~€ Greenhill Estates homeowner's association. I believe you already have a copy of
- the --. A report to the City of Meridian Planning and Zoning Commission from the
'~ ~,- Greenhill Estates homeowner's association. Really just about everything that's
t `~' on here has already been discussed this evening. You know the item No. 1 the
~~~; change of zoning could trigger further commercial development along Franklin if
~ ' ' no commercial zoning is approved but it sounds like commercial is already the
zoning there.

siding. It sounds like they've already addressed that to our satisfaction. If the
proposed use is approved, this is number 3, the landscaping should consist of an
attractive mix of trees and shrubs. They've already addressed that.
Borup: You saw their new landscaping plan and agree with that?
Smith: (inaudible) the following officers of the Greenhill Estates Homeowner's
association on August 10~', Sam Snider, Dave Smith, Kim Nolton, Sandra Baker,
Keith Cooley and Karen Madre. I would also like to state that at our meeting on
July 18~" there was only one person that expressed any concern about going
beyond 2 years for the phase 2. Therefore the association members feel that if
Ron wants to go 7 to 10 years, that's fine with the association.
Borup: Okay. Thank you. Any questions for Mr. Smith? Thank you. David, come
on up.
Paulson: My name is Steve Paulson. I live at 145 Thornwood Drive, its lot 9 on
one of the plans there. This is the first time I've heard or seen anything about the
modified plans. I really haven't even seen them. It sounds like Ron and Kent
worked it out pretty much with the Woodbridge people but I'm a homeowner
that's going to be effected on the Greenhill side. There's another homeowner I'm
sure has some concerns too. I would just like to be, you know, be included and
have some input on my site. I mean it sounds like they've taken care of the
Woodbridge side of this.
Borup: The first part of his presentation was on the Greenhill side. That's where
the extra landscaping was added, on the Greenhill side.
Paulson: Okay but from my understanding it's a 22-foot metal wall with a couple
of small shrubs and skinny trees that's going to be on my side. You know, they're
getting a berm on their side and that's always kind of been an issue with me. I
don't want to look at a 22-foot wall. I understand it's going to block the rest of the
development off of my area. I would like to have you know, just to be included a
little bit more in whatever plans they have here. I haven't seen any of this until
just -
Borup: You did not go to the meeting then?
Paulson: No, I went to the Greenhill Association meeting.
Borup: When they made their presentation?
Paulson: Yes, with the old landscaping.
Borup: Okay.

Paulson: Not this new one that they just seem to you know work out with the
O'Neill people here. I'd just like to, me and the other homeowner I'm sure would
like to have a little more input on our side of it. Instead of just a tall metal wall I'd
like to see you know I'd prefer a decorative brick at least half way up or a berm at
least part of the way up instead of just a wall.
Borup: Did you have a chance to see their drawings?
Paulson: No, I haven't seen any of this.
Borup: Maybe when we have some other testimony you might have a chance to
do that.
(inaudible discussion from audience)
Borup: It seems you're asking to put a brick up and then a lot of plants to hide the
brick.
Paulson: No. Just either a berm or they would have to have some sort of
(inaudible) like something else to break up the monotony of a 22-foot high -
Borup: That's why I was wondering if you had a chance to see their drawings.
Paulson: Driving by other mini storage units, that I've been looking at especially
lately I've seen these new ones and you know the trees take what 20 years to
mature or something and they start at 6 foot high so I'm going to be looking at a
metal wall with a skinny tree in front of it for the next 15 years. It's just some
concerns. I just appreciate Ron or Kent including me and the other homeowners
that this is going to effect. It borders our property, not necessarily the association
because you've already heard what the input that we had from the meeting of
that but just a, you know, we could have a little input and stuff. I realize its
probably going to go in. There's nothing I can do about it. But I would like to have
a say in how it's going to look out my back door.
Nary: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Commissioner Nary.
Nary: Mr. Paulson, weren't you here on the 5~' of July?
Paulson: Yes I was.
Nary: Okay. Were you here when ---. My notes indicated that you had a concern
about your view. I didn't make a note that you had a concern about the wall. But
were you here when we sent it back to your homeowner's association to provide
that comment?

Paulson: I'm sorry?
Nary: Were you sitting here when we sent it back for this specific meeting today
for the Greenhill Association to provide us the comments?
Paulson: To provide us comments? Yes I was.
Nary: They have provided the comments. Their request wasn't for a berm. Their
request was for more vegetation and landscaping.
Paulson: Correct.
Nary: Which they're in agreement with, Mr. Osborne is in agreement to do.
Paulson: And then this is -
Nary: So, this is your individual concern? This is not the homeowner's
associations?
Paulson: Right. This is my concern because I border this property. I understand
the Greenhill's Association neighborhood association has their concerns and
they've addressed them to you.
Nary: Did you express this at the July 18~' homeowner's association meeting as
well?
Paulson: Yes, to Mr. Cooley and they just wanted to get a package for you guys
basically but now all this new information has come up from the meeting tonight
that I just heard about.
Nary: What information? That they would put for landscaping?
Paulson: the one I just addressed about them talking with the Woodbridge people
and you know agreements on berms and stuff like that coming up. Now, the first
time I've seen this, well I haven't even really had a chance to look at it. But, I just
want to be included and I want to see what's going. Its been changed since the
original one that's been shown to me and I haven't even seen this changed one.
Nary: I guess, Mr. Paulson, the only thing I wanted was why do you think you
weren't included? We set it over a month and a half to allow your homeowner's
association to provide us with some comment.
Paulson: Correct.

Nary: They have. Iguess Idon't --. Just because a different homeowner's
association proposed some alternatives that some are in agreement by the
applicant and some are not doesn't mean we should set it over another time -
Paulson: I'm not asking you to delay it or anything like that. I understand its
probably going to go in. Again, what my point is, I'd just like to be included and
have some input on what it's going to look like from my side.
Nary: Okay.
Paulson: That's my whole point here.
Borup: Maybe one thing that might help. You may need to maybe just go back
and talk to Mr. Brown but there's a cross section that shows the grade difference.
I think that might clarify some of that for you. I'm not sure what point that cross
section was taken but it is on their plan that they've got right there.
Paulson: Okay.
Borup: In fact you could probably even go back right now and take a look at that
with a little more detail.
Paulson: Okay. One other concern that wasn't ever brought up. There's an
irrigation ditch back there. From when I talked with Kent or Ron, they just plan on
burying it. Now, I don't know the laws or anything about covering it up. But there
is different run offs from different levels. I just haven't figured out -
Borup: The ditch is on the Osborne's property?
Paulson: Is it on your guys' ?Yes, it's on their property. We have -
Borup: Wasn't that a requirement from the staff from the city to --?
Siddoway: Mr. Chairman, there are state statutes that protect irrigation water. If
it's an irrigation ditch that's supplying water through their project they have the
responsibility of continuing that through.
Borup: And it's also a city requirement to bury it?
Siddoway: It is. To pipe it and bury it.
Borup: Pipe it and bury it. They're not just going to fill it in.
Siddoway: If it's a waste ditch we're talking about --. Is that what it is? So. Its live
irrigation water. Yes, they will be tiling the ditch. They will have to provide, if you
have a take out point on that ditch, they will have to provide you with a take out

point at that same location. Their responsibility is to deliver your historical flow to
that historical location.
Paulson: Okay, we're above them. It flows into them but I distribute it just from
flood irrigation. Then Butch on the other side of Me., It pans out, it doesn't go
straight down -
Borup: So, it's also a waste ditch? It's a waste ditch also?
Paulson: I don't know how to describe it. Its you know, I don't know the terms -
Borup: But you were saying, so your excess water, where does it go?
Paulson: We're above them so it flows from us into them.
Borup: Into that ditch?
Paulson: It fingers off. It doesn't go straight down the designated irrigation ditch.
It you know, we have it finger off and flood off. I'm just trying to figure out how
they're going to bury it if it floods off everywhere instead of being just an open
ditch like it is.
Borup: So, you're saying your excess wastewater goes into that ditch at the
present time?
Paulson: Yes. It always has.
Centers: You don't get your water out of that ditch?
Paulson: I'm sorry, not out of his site. No, I'm above him so it comes from me -

Lauer: Good evening. My name is Doug Lauer. I live at 247 south Thornwood,
just south of Mr. Paulson. Similar concerns. With the new drawings I would
appreciate some time to review them and comment on those since I was
(inaudible) the opinion of the previous drawings. With that I was unable to attend
the Greenhill Estates meeting. We sent comments in. I don't know how they were
considered or anything. Similar comment on the irrigation ditch. I've never seen it
on the cross sections and addressed and I don't know if they've addressed it with
the irrigation people. Similar considerations as Woodbridge and Mr. Paulson. It
would be nice if we didn't have a 22 foot wall to look at and if we could have that
lowered and get the three twelve pitch, roof pitch. That would be of some benefit,
ease the view and make it more aesthetic. Of course I'm concerned about the
trees and the maturity of them but I also recognize, I appreciate to what they
have recommended doing. In that they have made some efforts to improve upon
it. I haven't had a chance to look at the drawings. I understood the 3 rail fence to
go completely around the property with a chain link fence as necessary in
between. I just would like to clarify that. I'd just like to -
Borup: You're question was which side had which type of fence?
Lauer: Yes, that there would be 3 rail fence behind, between me and the back of
the building, where the current barb wire fence is. That's what I understood when
they were speaking. The other thing I think, you know the key thing is the
association that's representing Greenhill Estates, they don't know --. They

represent it from an association standpoint. They're concerned primarily about
the development on Franklin and how it effects the majority of the association but
they don't necessarily represent Mr. Paulson and myself as much you know
because it directly effects us. Most of the rest of the subdivision it does not really
impact unless it's out on Franklin and so forth. You can take their comments but
it is from that perspective I believe more than from the prospective of the
homeowners that it directly impacts. With that, I think that's all I have to say at
this time. I would like the opportunity to review the drawings though and work
with Mr. -with Mr. Osborne to resolve and see if we can come to an agreement
much like the Woodbridge people have. We don't have the strength that the
Woodbridge subdivision where they have a lot of drafting and engineering and
that to support their efforts. We're just 2 homeowners and our association isn't as
interested in that because we're already developed where they're still trying to
sell homes. Thank you.
Borup: Any questions for Mr. Lauer? Thank you sir.
Lauer: Thank you.
Nary: Mr. Chairman, I just had one question. Mr. Lauer, I had a note here that a
Kim Lauer spoke at our July 5~" meeting-
Lauer: Yes she did. That's my wife.
Nary: Okay. Because my notes indicate that her concern was the barbwire.
Lauer: Yes, the 3-rail fence addresses that issue. And I am concerned about the
irrigation ditch that they've never addressed it. Maybe they do in the new cross
section. I don't know.
Nary: They're just bound by what the law requires them to do.
Lauer: To our knowledge they can't enclose it but if the city has a different rule
then maybe (inaudible)
Nary: That they can't enclose it?
Lauer: That's what, we spoke with the irrigation people and they said that they
wouldn't recommend having that enclosed.
Borup: Nampa Meridian said they wanted it left open?
Lauer: Yes, that's just, my wife talked to them and that's what she learned. I don't
know.
Borup: Okay. And I don't know the applicant's concerned either way.

Centers: I think they mean that it would continue to flow but underground.
Lauer: Yes it could be.
Centers: Right.
Lauer: Really in some respects if it was closed it would get rid of some
mosquitoes maybe. I can't say I really oppose it.
Borup: Okay. Thank you.
Lauer: Thank you.
Borup: Do we have anyone else? Mr. Osborne, do you have something?
Osborne: Ron Osborne, 373 Thornwood Drive. We're all really getting too
familiar Mr. Chairman, Commissioners.
Borup: Now, Ron from my notes, at least with the letter from O'Neill enterprises
we're down to really just 3 items. Is that your understanding?
Osborne: I believe 2. That's what I have.
Borup: So, you're in agreement on the three twelve pitch?
Osborne: Oh, 3, thank you.
Borup: Well let's cover that right there. Did you do a cost analysis difference
between a 2 and a 3?
Osborne: We did.
Borup: And it was--?
Osborne: We talked to 2 different builders that are expert in doing this thing,
who've done the project. They said there's a significant cost differential.
Borup: Between a two twelve and a three twelve?
Osborne: That's what they told us. I'm not a builder.
Borup: What's your span on those tresses?
Osborne: I don't have a clue.

(inaudible discussion from audience)
Borup: Okay. That's not picking up but -
(inaudible discussion from audience)
Borup: Okay. Do you want to just repeat that? I'll repeat it. Lets maybe come
back to that. You were going on some other comments I believe.
Osborne: I was. As always its good to have Mr. Moore with us but if I may
approach Commissioner Norton last time you expressed some real interest in the
occupant of discussion.
Norton: They're kind of cute.
Osborne: Which were my wife's horses. At the last meeting I think you suggested
I charge fees for the view of those since they were so popular. As you can see
particularly that new colt. They are rather cute but I've collected no money so far.
Secondly, I offered to sell part or all of my properties to any of those people that
would like to purchase it and I've had no offers so far. The previous 2 gentlemen
live 2 and 3 doors down from me. They're neighbors, even our kids occasionally
play together. These most recent comments tonight were news to me. Other than
the scheduled meeting we had prior to the last meeting here and the subsequent
meeting with the homeowner's association they've never come to my place or
flagged me down or anything else, or called and addressed any of .these
concerns. So, they're all kind of new. Some of them were addressed Mr. Paulson
addressed had a list of them at the neighborhood meeting. From there we have
worked with the Greenhill representatives and met with them on a couple of
occasions in addition to several phone calls between Kent, myself and again I
think per what they read, we tried to address all their concerns. With that if you
would like to move on to these other items, Mr. Commissioner on the O'Neill list,
I'd be happy to.
Borup: Okay. Item No. A, 120 feet.
Osborne: Okay. Is there a question?
Borup: Yes, I think my main question on that is their comment that you would
have the same square footage of rental space that -
Osborne: Based on their design. Fortunately they wont be designing my project.
If their fees are right though I might consider it.

~;;~: neighborhoods. It is pretty much a park area created for Woodbridge.

Osborne: It would. Exactly and that's why we think around 85 is certainly plenty
there with the landscaping and berming. You know, pretty quick its 120 you know
10 acres. Kind if what's reasonable there and I think that's kind of where we
differed on it a little bit.
Borup: Has there been any discussion on deeding that property to Woodbridge?
Osborne: Actually I offered to give it to them -
(inaudible discussion)
Osborne: No, the other side of the creek I offered to give it to them.
Borup: On the other side of the creek?
Osborne: If I offered to give it to them on this side, I'd need Larry for a good
divorce attorney so I probably shouldn't do that because that's you know horse
space right now. My wife wouldn't appreciate those (inaudible).
Norton: Did they want the property?
Osborne: No they did not, I understand. They didn't jump at it. I'll take that as a
no which is fine it was kind of quasi in gest. I'd like to keep it.
Borup: Okay.
Osborne: Just a couple of other things that for the drawings we've asked for
exclusions of the berming, excuse me the tree line behind my personal property
we talked about last time which is the last space there on the bottom end of that
diagram. Right there, exclude that. The other thing we talked about last time was
paving the path. We'd like to maintain that in gravel since that what would be on
Woodbridge's side so that consistent. We want to do it in the same type of
material and stuff as a they will have on their side.
Borup: Then I think the other item was the item D, the internal landscape
between phase 1 and phase 2.
Osborne: Yes, they've asked us to put a tree of some sort in there that would
roofline and those type of things. Since the white 3 rail fence initially will go
through that there and separate the second phase from the first phase, we've
offered to put bushes, vining, that type of stuff, small things to block the --. First
of all we offered to put a wall back there, a solid building so there were no doors.
That didn't seem to be too much of interest so we agreed to put bushes or vines,
things that would cover the dooring on that side of it which is the south side form _
them. The reason I don't want trees is 10 years from now those trees will be big
with lots of roots and major project it would cost to tear them out to begin stage 2.

So, I want to be able to have things that are, in a dry season a match might take
care of primarily with a little bit of tearing out smaller roots as opposed to large
trees,
Borup: What's the height of those buildings in that area?
Osborne: Kent? Approximately 12 feet. Particularly the objective to block kind of
the building and the doors from view which (inaudible) bushes and shrubs,
vinings and stuff along that fence line that will achieve that. We just don't want
trees that will be very large.
Borup: Any other comments? Did that cover what you need?
Osborne: I think you're right. Those were the 3 main items that we had some
differences on. They've been very good to work with and I think we've been able
to meet half way on most items. We have met a number of times, both
neighborhoods made themselves available at request. I was a little surprised by
some of the requirements. I met with the Woodbridge people a number of times
and less over at the Greenhill but any time they wanted to.
Borup: So, the interior buildings are adouble-pitched roof? Isn't that correct?
Osborne: Yes, the interior. When (inaudible) Kent will address a little more and
maybe answer your question there Mr. Commissioner is by Mr. Paulson's. That's
where the largest cut into the dirt would be. So, he won't see a 22-foot building.
There's approximately 6 foot that will be behind dirt. There's approximately 14,
16 feet roughly that will be exposed there. At the time we met the first time, with
him and some of the neighbors, 2 or 3 requests were made by him that we tried
to accommodate. One was to change what was before the small buildings
illustrated there that you had a questions about, we moved to the large open
buildings because originally they were going to be roll up storage on that side,
smaller buildings. Mr. Paulson and others did not want to be able to see on the
internal roofs. We then offered to do larger buildings that would be for parking of
vehicles, motorboats, whatever you have in there. He says as long as all I can
see is the skyline. So, we described the 22-foot building with the cut behind there
that would block his view of internal and got a positive response from that as
opposed to seeing the roofs. So, the change surprised me a little bit there. That
was a modification we made to a large degree at his request to not see the
internal buildings. We did that for both, all along the east side of the project and
at the request of the O'Neill's on the south side we also had the smaller buildings
and agreed to do the large buildings to create that buffer. Those were changes in
the plan and also why the building size is different. As far as the irrigation issue.
I'm down hill from everybody. I'm a little confused by that.
Borup: I think irrigation was the wastewater. Where's the wastewater going to go
now?

Osborne: I assume the same place.
Borup: Is it going into your ditch now?
Osborne: I'm down hill so (inaudible) Right now it goes into my pasture and the
Five Mile Creek. Obviously it will continue to flow in that phase 2 for the next 10
years and then the Five Mile Creek. I'm not sure what I can do up stream on their
properties. I'm a little confused at that.
Borup: I think they were concerned just on the wastewater. Where is it going to
go?
Osborne: Whatever it is it will go in my ditch. It does now and I assume it still will.
Borup: Well, you're talking about tiling the ditch, I thought.
Osborne: We were going to do what the code requires us to do.
Borup: Okay. So, I assume if it gets traveling that water is still going to come
that's going to go right down there through your buildings?
Osborne: Well, it -
Borup: Unless something is done to handle that. Okay, Commissioners, any
questions?
Nary: Just one question, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Osborne, so if what your preference
is on the suggested modifications by the Woodbridge estates was on that
number one, you would be comfortable with 85 feet?
Osborne: Yes, approximately 85 feet is kind of what I was suggesting out there
about the time we heard our names called. I think that's what we're looking at
Kent, right?
Nary: That would be, it says, at least the way this worded that no buildings
closer. Wouldn't you still want to maintain that sort of curved, or angling sort of
design of your buildings so you could still be comfortable with --. I think this one
right now its 45 feet at the closest point.
Osborne: Right.
Nary: So, you would be comfortable moving that back 40 more feet? Then the
other one would either be, it was 150, so it would be either 190 or still I guess it
could possibly be 150 still?

Osborne: I think it would be approximately 85 across but we now have the

Nary: No.

Osborne: We're not opposed to that. Also we show a break in buildings for
*

~~ ~ ~°~}~~ We want to just do whatever the sewage people want us to do to have access to
that. They indicated access can be achieved from the road, that can, we can do a

- Borup: I wonder if it would be beneficial to spend a few minutes with Mr. O'Neill.

Borup: Tonight?

Osborne: We could do it right now.
-~ .~. Borup: --and then come back to this. I don't think the next one is going to take a
lot of time.
~~; Nary: Just curious Mr. Chairman. For Mr. Osborne, if you have that break in the
:'',~ buildings I guess one of the things that I thought would allow some access to that
green space. Do you not want to have any access from your storage area into
j =R~ ` that green area? You're going to maintain that even though you cant use it? And
~~_~ the folks that are using that storage space cant use it and you're going to
~~ maintain that anyway?
Osborne: Right, I don't want the folks using the storage space to enjoy a park
,~~~ any time so that wasn't the intent for it. It was solely for sewage access.
s-~
~ ~.
Nary: Okay.
Osborne: Solid is fine. I figured on maintaining it I didn't have much options there.
I really don't want to but I'm willing to do that. One other item on that, we talked
about the initial landscaping taking place during the entire project with phase 1.
- The exception I guess we're asking for is that the O'Neill asked us to berm the
~'~" back of that last building in phase 2 which would include up to 5 feet, I think is

Borup: They did ask for berming of that building?
Osborne: Yes, on the backside.
It
Borup: Oh, phase 2.
Osborne: We agreed to that and I think they showed a diagram with some
bushes or trees there and we're fine to work with that. That part of it obviously
wouldn't take place initially because there's not a building there to berm up
against. The outside landscaping would all take place. That portion of
landscaping would take place when the building goes up.
Borup: So, you're saying you don't want to put berm against a building until the
building is there?
Osborne: I know, I know, its crazy.
Borup: Five feet was okay with you?
Osborne: Yes, I'm fine with that.
Borup: Okay.
Norton: Mr. Osborne Thank you.
Osborne: Mr. Chairman, any other questions of me?
Borup: I guess we could proceed with this now. It looks like there's still a few
things that aren't in agreement between you. One choice would be to let the
Commissioners decide or we could give you a few minutes if you would like and
then we can reconvene after our next hearing which will not be that long I don't
believe.
Freckleton: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Yes, Mr. Freckleton.
Freckleton: I would like to make a couple points if I could.
Borup: Okay, lets do that first.
Freckleton: Just to let everybody know what the sewer people will want.
Borup: Okay, well that might help.

Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, as you know there is an existing sanitary sewer trunk
line that runs along a portion of Mr. Osborne's southern, or excuse me western
boundary and then diagonal across the southern portion of his property over into
the Woodbridge project. There's an existing gravel road over that sewer. The
easement is 20 feet wide. I just want to make sure that all parties understand as
they're talking about different landscape schemes and that sort thing that that 20
feet, there are no trees that are allowed in that 20 feet. We have to maintain that
access through to that sewer at all times. Just keep that in mind as you're
planning.
Borup: So, the city's intention is for the 20 foot of gravel?
Freckleton: No, its not 20 foot of gravel. Its 12 to 14 feet of gravel.
Borup: Okay. The gravel is for access?
Freckleton: Correct and it has to be maintained through.
Centers: Is that in your comments Bruce?
Freckleton: I can't remember if it was specific in there.
Borup: That was a month ago.
Centers: Well, we can just make note of that.
Freckleton: Yes. The other point I wanted to make is we're talking about a lot of
changed to plans here and we're going back and forth. We don't have a plan that
really we can pass onto Council at this point. I just wanted to make that point.
Borup: Good point.
Siddoway: If I were to make a recommendation on that issue it would be, you
know usually we continue things to the second meeting but if everything is really
worked out and is all we're having to do is say yes this is the plan that represents
everything we've shown. You may be able to handle that on the first meeting in
just a couple of weeks. Give the applicant a chance to submit the final approved
plan that you can then send on to Council. That would be my recommendation.
Take it as you will.
Borup: Okay. That makes sense. Did you understand what he said.
Osborne: I think I understood real clearly. I want to be on record I'm opposed to
that but I've got a feeling you're not going to ask for my vote Mr. Commissioner.

would be up to 3 weeks, our next regular meeting. The first Thursday in
September.

Norton: September 6~'.
Borup: Depending on the motion, but in passed when we've done things like that
we've closed it to any further public testimony and the meeting was open just to
review a specific item. I guess we need to see if that's what -
Norton: Just for my comments, on September 6th we already have 10 public
hearings on September 6~'. As long as we're discussing it, it looks like we're very
clear on may be just a few changes but not many. I don't see any reason to hold
it over. I think perhaps we can vote on it and send the plans to the city planning.
Borup: I think Mr. Siddoway's comment is we're making a recommendation on
something we haven't seen to City Council unless we can make it very clear
tonight.
Norton: Yes, I understand.
Osborne: Mr. chairman, I'd love to make it very clear tonight.
Borup: Okay. Why don't we continue this hearing for a few minutes, give all those
interested parties a chance to go outside and review that. I'd like to go ahead and
tackle the Phoenix project right now and then maybe take a break after that, if
that's all right with everybody. You don't think you're going to take that long?
Osborne: Mr. Chairman, my guess is with the O'Neill group if that's what we're
talking about is these last two items -
Borup: Right.
Osborne: -- I'm assuming 5 minutes we'll be ready or so.
Borup: Okay. Lets go ahead and do that.
Nary: Mr. Chairman, the only other thing, although I don't at least based on the
comments, Mr. Osborne it may not be resolvable but it certainly wouldn't
probably be a bad thing to talk to Mr. Paulson and Mr. Lauer.
Borup: I think I'd like to maybe see a cross section and see where the cut is.
Nary: (inaudible) not necessarily be resolvable but I think its only fair to them as
well.

Professional Center. The building that sits on this lot is the subject property. This
application is here because it's an application for a private school, the University
of Phoenix. The schedule of uses control says that all such schools require a
Conditional Use Permit. So, it's the use that is before you tonight. This is the site
plan. It shows the existing layout of the 2 buildings. Again this is the building here
that we are talking about. They are up and have occupancy. These are the
elevations of the existing building. I guess that is it. You should have a staff
report dated August 6, 2001. Just let those comments stand. If there's any
questions?
Borup: Any questions from the Commission? Does the applicant have anything
they would like to add? The staff recommended approval. Unless those any --.
Were there any thing on any of their comments that you felt you needed to
comment on, in the staff report.
Simons: I'm Andy Simons with Rocky Mountain Management and Development,
2700 Airport Way. The answer to that question is no. We agree with the staff
report entirely. We think that this will be a good addition to the City of Meridian
and I will try to answer any questions if you have any.
Borup: Any questions from the Commission?
Norton: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Commissioner Norton.
Norton: Mr. Simons, on the University setting, I understand about the University
of Phoenix. We've got some information at the institution that I work at. Will this
be a year round school? Or will this be a nine-month school?
Simons: Unfortunately, no one from the University of Phoenix could be here
tonight. The person who was going to try and be here had to get out of town for
something. Bottom line I think it's a year round school. I think also that they won't
be holding any classes during the day except possibly on weekends if that
matters to you. All their classes are typically 6 to 10 at night during the week.

at night then none of the other buildings are probably even in use.

Simons: I can be more specific if it would help you on that one. The site itself
has about 254 parking stalls. I just go the final space plan that the University of
Phoenix's architect came up with. It shows 4 what are called vocational rooms.
Each vocational room would have about a maximum of 15 to 16 students.
Borup: So, we are talking 60 -
Simons: And there's 250 on site and again this is after hours off peak and all of
that so there wont be a parking issue.
Borup: All right.
Centers: 250 per year space or for the whole project?
Simons: Both buildings have a total of 254 parking stalls if I remember right and
there is a cross parking agreement between the buildings. So, I mean spread 60
to 70 cars throughout there and you won't even notice it.
Centers: And you're talking evenings and weekends you said?
Simons: Yes sir.
Borup: Any other questions from the Commission? Thank you sir. I realize we
figure you probably had a short application but everything else on was continued
from aprevious --. Somehow you got, this is normally a continuation meeting so
yours got slipped in ahead of schedule a little bit.
Norton: I guess I have one. What is the, since the buildings have already been
constructed when is the expected enrollment? When will the classes be held?
Simon: They are already advertising on the local media. I don't know if you've
seen any of the commercials yet on both TV and heard them on the radio. They
are planning to try and start classes in this facility as early as December.
Norton: December?
Simon: Of 2001.

(inaudible discussion from audience)
Borup: Okay, or from Woodbridge?
Freckleton: Right.
Osborne: We're comfortable either way. A solid building is fine with us which is
what they prefer. In fact it lends some security issues that we're comfortable with.

end of phase 1 that will be along D. Yes the internal landscape, yes. We're
proposing bushes and vining, non- large root type items to block the doors and
the view essentially of that. The O'Neill's would like large trees for that and we
would prefer bushes.
Borup: Okay, very good. Mr. O'Neill, anything different from --?
Osborne: Yes, and be temporary. Ours is intended to be removed when phase 2
starts they would like the permanent trees that would stay for phase 2.

Borup: Right.
Osborne: We're in disagreement. We would love for you Mr. Chairman to help us
with that item.
Borup: Okay. Thank you. Mr. O'Neill is that accurate in what he stated? Okay,
and he indicated yes. Any other questions from any of the Commissioners?
Centers: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Commissioner Centers.
Centers: Just so I'm clear, they were proposing trees that would stay there and
block traffic that was entering, the ingress and the egress into the storage units?
Osborne: In the center of it, yes. Ultimately, will be the mid section.
(inaudible discussion from audience)
Borup: Look on their site plan is what they're proposing.
Centers :Which would take room from the ingress and egress of the interior of
the project.
(inaudible discussion from audience)
Borup: We're going to need to get that on record if we want to have some
(inaudible) there. Did you have some more clarification Mr. O'Neill?
O'Neill: No.
Borup: Okay. Any other questions from anyone?
Centers: No, I'm fine.
Borup: Okay.
Osborne: Those are the 3 items, Mr. Chairman in relationship to the O'Neill.
Borup: Okay, Thank you.
Osborne: We've resolved 2 of them and would like you to resolve the third.
Borup: Thank you. I appreciate that.

Osborne: We've had further discussion with 2 of the neighbors from the Greenhill
estates. It's been a very good discussion.
Borup: So, they understand the design now? All right, thank you. That will be all. I
don't think we had any other questions. Thank you Mr. Osborne.
Osborne: Thank you very much Mr. Chairman and Commissioners. I appreciate
it.
^
Nary: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: Commissioner Nary.
Nary: We have had a couple of issues that we've talked about a little bit. I guess I
have a question both for Steve and for Larry. WE had tried very hard not to send
projects forward to the city Council that aren't complete. I think we have certainly
ironed out the issues that I think we all understand what we think they are. But,
has that not been our normal practice, is to simply try to get a final plan to send
forward and not necessarily a proposed plan that we think will be that when it
gets there? Isn't that the case Mr. Siddoway?
Siddoway: Yes it is.
Nary: Okay. Now, Mr. Moore, the other thing is although I think we understand
what we all think we're looking at and may be approving or at least considering
approving but do you feel comfortable in sending this forward to the City Council
on basically a proposed motion with us trying to iron out all of these things? I
guess you have to write up the final report for the City Council.
Moore: You're right. I'm sorry. Chairman Borup, Commissioner -- .That's true,
very seldom. Commissioner Nary, we have had this discussion before. It's
always been the fact that we need a final plan before this body before we send it
to the City Council. Therefore my recommendation to you would b e that we get a
final plan on paper before we go forward with this, whether it takes 2 weeks or a
month or whatever. I know it's a delay but by the same token that's always been
the way that we've done it and I recommend it in this case.
Nary: Mr. Chairman, I have one other question. I think Mr. Osborne's concern
was he didn't state this on the record. He wasn't real in favor of us delaying it but
the concern is the delay that the City Council in doing that. Maybe Mr. Berg can
answer, is there anyway to schedule this at the City Council before we make a
final vote on the plan? If we waited 3 weeks is that going to delay him another
month and a half because the City Council? Or can they schedule this for the
City Council in anticipation that we're not going to have any more public
discussion, we're just going to make sure that we approve the plan as we pass it
forward. Can we not delay Mr. Osborne further?

Borup: If it was approved tonight it would be October? If it was approved tonight
when would it be on the City Council agenda? Isn't that what you --?
Nary: Right. If we approve this tonight but we made it contingent upon receiving
the final plan on the 6~' of September, can you schedule it for the City Council
before we approve it?
Borup: If it was approved tonight when would it be on the City Council? Then the
question is can we still schedule it for that date?
Moore: Chairman Borup.
Borup: Yes, Mr. Moore.
Moore: It would certainly be within standards if we were to close your public
hearing here, recommend approval of the project based upon receiving that final
plan before it goes forward to City Council.
Borup: Okay. Then will that keep the time schedule the same?
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Nary: As you can tell my objective is certainly not to delay this project any further
if not necessary. But I think, I guess from my personal prospective, I don't know
what the rest of the Commission thinks. I certainly think we still want to have a
final plan that, --because they've brought a lot of stuff tonight that really looks
good but I think we just want to make sure that what we approve is what the City
Council sees.
Borup: So, would that do that by the statement Mr. Moore made, go ahead and
close the public hearing tonight? At that recommend approval and that would go
on the schedule as of tonight, or as of tomorrow?
Berg: Mr., Chairman, I'm just trying to understand the deal with looking and
reviewing the plat. Is this body going to look at that site plan?
Borup: Yes.
Centers: Yes, at our next hearing.
Nary: We're not going to take anymore public testimony.
Berg: But, what if you --?
Centers: Subject to receiving.
Meridian Planning and Zoning (ng
August 16, 2001
Page 45
Berg: I guess my concern, I know what you're concerned of seeing something
and passing it on but my other concern, if you're looking at it and you don't like
what you're seeing and you tell them to you know we want to change this or we
want to change that.
Borup: then you take it off the agenda.
Berg: We don't want to go ahead on the plank and go ahead an notice it if you
don't really have a full recommendation.
(inaudible discussion from audience)
Nary: I guess what I'm saying Mr. Berg is if we approve it, I mean we have a lot
of information tonight and we were to vote to improve it contingent on upon
receiving the plans at our next scheduled meeting on September 6~', consistent
with that approval. If they weren't consistent with that approval then Mr. Osborne
is the one that caused the delay and no one else. That's not our problem. If that
does delay it then it's delayed. If it doesn't then can you schedule it we approve it
contingent upon that receipt on the 6~' for the City Council for whatever the next
scheduled time would be based upon --?
Borup: When would that be, the next scheduled time? I don't think you ever did
answer that. Or do you know?
Berg: Mr. Chairman. I'm just kind of guessing the dates. If we approve it tonight it
would be in one of the 2 meetings in September. If you wait until the 6 of
September, you're looking back into October.
Borup: So, right now -
Norton: Mr. Chairman.
Borup: -- it would be one of the 2 meetings in September? You're not sure until
you see the agendas? Is that why you're --?
Berg: Well, counting the 15 days.
Borup: Right.
Berg: Our notice in the paper is Friday with the statesman. We have to get it in by
Tuesday and it's just -
Borup: Is that the only criteria, the notice? Or, how's the City Council agenda?
Can it handle it also?

Norton: Its only 14 days but we do meet again on August the 30~" for the comp
plan. Perhaps maybe we could do a real quick meeting before the comp plan and
take a look at these drawings.
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioner)
Borup: Is the 30~' enough time to have the plans here?
Centers: It's just a site plan.
Borup: The rest of the Commissioners, what do you think about that?
Nary: I think that's fair to everybody if we do that. That would still give Mr. Berg
adequate notice to be able to put it on the 18~" of September. (inaudible) If you
waited until we approved it? That would give you adequate time to put it on the
18~', wouldn't it?
Berg: I'm not sure it would. I just feel uncertain that I can advertise something
that you haven't fully approved because there always this contingency that you
still want to look at a site plan before you totally approve the project, even though
in theory, you know what there should be on that site plan. I almost would rather
have the staff make sure it's on the site plan and maybe you review it internally.
Norton: Yes.
Berg: Then if it isn't what you think it is you can respond back to the staff and say
no, they said they're going to have 90 feet and this is 88 or whatever.
Borup: And not even have to have a -
Berg: I'm just afraid if you put this contingency of seeing the site plan its really
not closing all the information that you've gathered to pass on the
recommendation. I'm not an attorney but it still seems like you're looking, or
gathering or wanting to see something before you totally pass it on and close the
hearing.
Borup: So, you're saying we could make a --. If we went ahead and make a
recommendation tonight when the plans come in -
Norton: staff (inaudible)
Borup: -- staff would take a look at it and the Commissioners could also?

(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Borup: Individually but not as a group?
Centers: Yes, just you. If we designate you in the motion to come in and approve
the site plan for the Commission.
(inaudible discussion from audience)
Centers: Approving our motion.
Moore: He's not approving the site plan. All you're doing is verifying that it meets
all the standards that have been approved by this body.
Borup: Which we don't even have down yet.
Nary: Since I brought it up, I guess (inaudible). If we waited until the 30th, what
would that do timing wise to get it to City Council? The reason I'm asking is
because I think we can at least consider a reasonable exception to get this
moving along. We asked for the delay to allow some opportunity for some input
but I don't want to make such a huge exception that we end up having to make
further exceptions like that in the future. I don't think that makes a lot of sense
either. If we waited until the 30th, where would that put us in you being able to
schedule that to the City Council? Do they not meet on the 25th of September?
Berg: They meet on, excuse me Mr. Chairman, Commission, Commissioner
Nary. They meet on the 25th but they only meet for City business. No public
hearings for land use issues. They're trying to keep that to the first and third
Tuesday.
Nary: So, right now, if we were to approve this tonight it's possible that it could be
on the City Council agenda for the 18th of September?
Berg: Very likely.
Nary: If we waited until the 30th, what you're saying is it probably couldn't be on
the City Council agenda?

Berg: Yes, and the 21St is -
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Nary: So, if we waited to the 30th, waiting until the 6th wouldn't make any
difference either?
Berg: Correct. That's what I'm saying.
Borup: So, that's saying the option is we approve it tonight or wait until the 6th?
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Nary: Rather than designating Chairman Borup as our sort of proxy we can make
it simply and I think we have done this. We have made it contingent on the staffs
approval.
Centers: That's what I was thinking earlier.
Nary: We've done that and that's not as far outside as having one member of the
Commission make that. I don't know, Mr. Siddoway, are you comfortable with
that? Or uncomfortable with that?
Siddoway: As long as I was clear on what everything is that I'm looking for. I'm
fine with reviewing it.

Borup: The map we have of the combination of what the applicant had and the
O'Neill's. Kind of a combination of the 2.

Siddoway: Mr. Chairman. Mr. Brown has also told me that they can make the
modifications by Monday and have it in. They can do it, quickly. They don't even
need the 2 weeks necessarily. It's just a matter of days.
Borup: That's not a little section. We've got to unfold these.
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Borup: This is the one that he had on his board for the presentation. This is their
new revision after the meetings.

Borup: So, this-its going to be half way between this and O'Neill's diagram that
they gave us. Is that what you would like to do? Go ahead and put (inaudible)
down or what? I guess we can put down the notes that everybody's in agreement
on. Those that aren't we may need some discussion on.
Nary: It was my understanding -
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Nary: Mr. Chairman. I would move that we close the public hearing on item 7.
Borup: You know, really the first comment you made was even not in compliance
with the motion we made before. This meeting was held over to get input from
the meeting with the homeowner's association which we felt we did. Mr. Nary?
Norton: Second the motion to close the public hearing.
Borup: Motion second. All in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES, ONE ABSENT
Borup: Okay.
Norton: From my understanding there's only one problem and that is whether
they put bushes or trees in between phase one and phase 2.
Borup: Right but we also need to maybe get some notes on the plat on what was
agreed on.
Norton: All right.
Borup: That was a 85 feet buffer on the south, or 90, I'm sorry 90 feet.

Nary: I made notes that we could provide Mr. Moore for that. (inaudible)
Nary: I guess I could start off the discussion we're going to have. I think having
this new site plan really gives us the ability to do this. I guess my suggestion is
going to be that we make a motion based on the changes that have been
suggested tonight. We can make it contingent on also the approval by the
planning department. Mr. Siddoway that the final plan that be submitted are
consistent with that. If they aren't I guess then Mr. Brown and Mr. Osborne can
work with them to get them in compliance because its going to need to be in
compliance with what we're going to move in regards to this tonight. I guess my
only other comment about the changes that have been made and the set over is,
I appreciate the efforts and time that Mr. Osborne and Mr. Brown have made in
this. I will be honest on the 5~' of July when this was presented to us I really didn't
think there would probably be a lot of ways to resolve this without us having to
make all of these choices. I'm glad to see that both Woodbridge and the
Greenhill estates folks have been able to talk to Mr. Osborne and he's real
amenable to a lot of the changes. Maybe not all of them and that's just part of
what's normal and consistent with most projects. The proposed things by the
Greenhill estate, by the homeowner's association I think are consistent and I
think Mr. Osborne has been in agreement with those. I think what Mr., Paulson
and Mr. Lauer have brought forward, I understand their concerns but I don't think
that's really before us tonight on the issue of the height of the walls and -
Norton: Excuse me, Mr. Nary.
Nary: Yes?
Norton: I'm sorry, I'm having a hard time concentrating on what you're trying to
say when there's talking in the audience. Thank you.
Nary: Anyway I guess my comments are I think the issue of the height of the wall
for that particular building on this side is not really an issue. On the one issue
under I guess the contingent dispute, the internal landscape buffer, I guess my
opinion is that it makes more sense to me that it's a temporary buffer and that its
bushes and easier to maintain type of landscaping that can be removed in the
future. It doesn't make sense to me to have that be a landscape tree buffer in the
middle of the project. I think it just looks awkward and it doesn't really fit with the
overall project when it's completed. I think its just going to look a little goofy and
out of place. I guess I wouldn't be in support of those being trees and a
permanent fixture. I would be more supportive of the vines and bushes and those
types of things that can be removed at a later date during the second phase.

Centers: Yes, I just wanted to make the comment and wanted to make it earlier
that I've never seen such cooperation on a project. Then you read the verbiage
on this attachment that O'Neill submitted and it state at the invitation of Mr.
Osborne. I think that just shows true cooperation. They've bent over backwards
and have complied with most of their requests. Comply is probably the wrong
word to use. I'm in agreement with Commissioner Nary all the way down the line.
Thank you.
Borup: Any comment, Commissioner Norton?
Norton: I see no --. I agree also. I was just going to somehow get in that on
phase 2 there were 3 issues of points that they finally agreed upon. One was the
number one the 90 feet buffer at the very end of the property. Number 2 was that
at phase 2 the roofline would be three twelve on phase 2 roofs only. Phase 1
would be the two twelve pitch. Then midway I agree with Mr. Nary that it makes
sense to have the temporary bushes and vines rather than trees.
Borup: I think, and I don't know that they said two twelve on the phase 1. In fact I
thought there was multiple one and a half to 2? Well, we need -
Norton: Whatever the multiple was.
Borup: Okay. As submitted.
Norton: As submitted.
Borup: Mr. Moore.
Moore: Chairman Borup, I have one question here. Didn't we change the three
on this landscape berm to 5?
Borup: Yes.
Moore: Thank you.
Borup: That was agreed on, on that also. The planters on the east side, on the
west side of the buildings were 6 feet..
Norton: Number E is 6 feet instead of 10 feet.
Borup: Then a berm went in with the building. I don't think there was any
question on that.

Borup: Yes, then you have that. I've got notes on this if you'd like to (inaudible).
Item B was the building was 20 in front and 14 on the back on the berm side
rather than the 22 and 18 I think. I can't remember what the original one was.
Norton: It was 10 and 16.
Borup: Well, that was the proposal but the original applicant was 22 or greater.
Norton: 17 and 22?
Centers: We have to note that no landscaping over the sewer easement.
Borup: Right. Per City ordinance.
Freckleton: Commissioner Centers. If I could just clarify that. We can allow
bushes, small shrubbery, and things like that. It's the large tree, deep rooted
trees that we have an issue with. The site plan that Kent Brown passed out
tonight shows a 10-foot asphalt path and I believe that the standard is 14 that's
going to have to be maintained. Its 12 or 14, I'm going to have to clarify that.
Borup: Would that need to be asphalt or would that be gravel like they talked
about earlier?
Freckleton: It can be gravel as far as I'm concerned.
Nary: Would that be in the Conditional Use Permit site-specific requirements or in
the annexation requirements?
Freckleton: That's probably more of a site specific.
Borup: So, the existing gravel path shows this path tying into is 14? Or should be
14?
Freckleton: Its 12 or 14. I'm going to have to clarify that. I can get together with
Steve when we look at the site plan.
Borup: But the assumption is the existing one that they're tying into is in
compliance so this should be the same size? l'
Freckleton: The assumption yes.
Siddoway: Mr. Chairman, the parks department standard is fora 10-foot asphalt
path. I don't know if Mr. Freckleton has a problem with a 10 foot asphalt path with
a gravel shoulder so that.
Borup: Okay. So, there's a difference.

Siddoway: I guess the issue is that they need 12 or 14 feet clear but 10 feet of it
can be asphalt per the park department standards.
Borup: Okay.
Freckleton: Mr. Chairman, the purpose of the wider width is the fact that our
hydro cleaning equipment is trailer mounted and we have to be able to maneuver
a truck and trailer down that path. 10 foot gets a little too narrow. It needs to be
able to support and HS 20 loading.
Borup: you're afraid the drivers can't stay in the 10-foot area? Never mind. I think
that clarified that. It looks like there are some options so the applicant has some
choices there as long as they comply with what the City requirements? Okay. Did
you finish all your comments Commissioner Norton?
Norton: I did thank you.
^
Borup: I have another I think everything's been covered.
Nary: Mr. Chairman. I'll take a stab at it I guess. Mr. Chairman I would move that
we recommend approval to the City Council, item 7 AZ 01-011 request for
annexation and zoning of 9.79 acres from RUT to a C-G zone for Franklin Mini
Storage by Ron Osborne at 1975 East Franklin Road to include all staff
comments regarding annexation and zoning for this particular parcel from the
July 2, 2001 staff report.
Centers: I would second that.
Borup: Motion is second. Any discussion? All in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES, ONE ABSENT
Borup: Okay, next item.
Nary: Mr. Chairman. I would move that we recommend approval to the City
Council on item 8 CUP 01-024 request for Conditional Use Permit for the
construction of a storage unit on 9.79 acres with one office commercial pad for
Franklin Mini Storage by Ron Osborne to include all staff comments from the July
2nd memo in addition to the following amendments. That there be limitation, a
condition placed on limitation for the commercial pad of uses that would not
include restaurants, drive throughs, those types of uses. That they be limited to
office or light rental types of facilities, light vehicle rentals, those types of
facilities. That can be worked out with the planning staff. The site-specific
conditional use requirements would include and additional specific requirement
that I think a minimum of a 14-foot pathway, is that correct? A minimum of 14 foot

pathway for sanitary sewer access and that there be no heavy landscaping
including trees in the 20 foot sewer easement that's in existence. I think those
were all the concerns for the public works side. That we would include as part of
the comments both the report by the Greenhill Estates Homeowner's Association
and the requests that they made and that I think are all in agreement by the
applicant. Also to include the comments provided by the Woodbridge Estates
memorandum of August 15th of this year with the additional amendments to that.
That under item 1 site plan, that item A would indicate that no building shall be
located closer than 90 feet from the south property line. That the building on the
south property line will be parallel to the property line and will be a solid building
without any break in it. That the item B that there be a maximum building height
of 14 feet in the rear and 20 feet in the front. So, amending the footage that's
listed in this report. On item C that there be a 5 foot landscape berm against the
back side of the most southerly building that will not have to be constructed until
during phase 2 of this project. That item D indicate that there be a temporary
internal landscape buffer that would include vines and bushes, low maintenance
landscaping and no permanent trees in that location. Item E that there be a 6-foot
planter on the west end of the all east west oriented internal buildings. That
section 2 on architecture, that items A, B, and C would remain as written. Item D
would indicate that phase 2 buildings would have a roof pitch with a minimum of
three twelve on all the interior buildings. That phase could be built as submitted.
That item 3 on fencing, item 4 on use restrictions and requirements, and item 5
on project phasing and timing would be as listed. That the developer, or the
applicant would be required to submit a new site plan for approval by the
planning department prior to the submission to the City Council. Did I forget
anything?
Norton: No,
Borup: Yes, item 4 on Woodbridge submission. They weren't proposing soffitt
lighting on item (inaudible).
Nary: Yes, you're right. That item 46 would simply be; eliminate the word soffitt.
That would be restricted to indirect downward lighting.
Centers: Just a comment too. As far as the use of that commercial pad out front.
I think it was mentioned earlier by staff that they would have to come back with
any use of that site and some listing of the uses. I guess that's not really
necessary but its okay.
Nary: Or, simply that it would state that there wouldn't be any -- . I think the
concern was the commercial restaurants, drive throughs (inaudible)
Siddoway: Correct.

Nary: They wouldn't have those uses but all the uses would be by conditional use
anyway. Isn't that correct? Any other uses on there would be by conditional use
anyway?
Siddoway: Per staff comments that is what we have recommended, yes.
Nary: Okay.
Centers: You've included staff comment?
Moore: Chairman Borup. We need to make a correction. When Commissioner
Nary was reading this he read it as CUP 01-024. It should be a correction to CUP
01-020. I know it says 024 on your -
Nary: Oh, our agenda is incorrect?
Moore: Your agenda's incorrect. It should be 020.
Nary: Thank you.
Norton: I'd second that motion.
Borup: Discussion? Maybe one thing, I meant to do that before we had the
second. It may be helpful to have a date for staff approval, perhaps the 23rd?
Centers: Mr. Siddoway's making a suggestion.
Borup: Mr. Siddoway.
~:.
Siddoway: I have a suggestion for that date. We have figured that in order to get
this on the Council hearing for September -
Borup: I think the clerk said he will need to have it in his hands by the 24th. Or
would like to anyway.
Siddoway: Is that date the 24th? So, --
Borup: If you could have it on the 23rd?
Nary: 22nd?
Siddoway: Yes, the 22nd. If I could have it by the 22nd which is -
Borup: Can you approve it by the 23rd?
Siddoway: Yes.

Borup: Okay and I think the applicant said they can have it by the 20~' or 21St
Siddoway: As long as they make the 23~d, the 22nd the drop-dead deadline for
getting it, I will have time to review it in time to get it to Mr. Berg.
Borup: Okay. Any time after that it would be on the next meeting. I think all we
need to say -
Nary; No later than the 22nd and certainly -
Borup: And approved by the staff by the 23~d
Nary: The quicker the better. (inaudible)
Siddoway: Can we get a modified site plan and landscape plan clarified for that.
Nary: As was shown to us tonight a modified site plan as well as the landscaping
that was --. The landscaping was done in the response to the request from
Greenhill Estates.
Borup: Okay, does the second concur with the change in the motion?
Norton: Yes, I would agree with that.
Borup: Any other discussion? All in favor?
MOTION CARRIED: THREE AYES, ONE ABSENT
Borup: I would just like to say thank all those involved with this, (inaudible) on
both sides. When there is some open dialogue and discussion and compromise,
it makes our job a lot easier. We appreciate everyone's input.
(inaudible discussion amongst Commissioners)
Borup: Commissioners, I guess we can --. We've still got an open meeting don't
we?
Nary: I move to adjourn, unless we have something else.
Borup: Next week we have our comp plan. In two weeks. We did get a nice
summary from staff. I think that still may not hurt to review, especially maybe
some of the written submissions. I don't know, have we got a chance of getting
through that whole thing that night and moving it on? We'll find out. There's still
some things I've got questions in my mind.
