A
A
A
A
D
Madam
mayor,
I
move
approval
of
the
council
minutes
for
the
work
session
and
regular
evening
meeting
of
february
15th
2022..
I.
B
D
Yes,
before
we
go
further,
I'd
like
to
ask
a
moment
of
personal
privilege,
if
I
could
yes,
this
is
the
first
council
meeting
that
we've
all
been
together
since
the
passing
of
vern
bisterfeldt
and
while
none
of
you
had
the
opportunity
to
serve
with
fern,
I
wanted
to
recognize
his
service
to
this
city.
D
A
E
F
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
members
of
the
council.
I
would
like
to
echo
my
future.
F
Co-Board,
member
alexis
and
say
it's
it's
an
honor
and
a
privilege,
and
I'm
just
very
excited
that
you
guys
have
the
faith
in
me
to
do
this.
F
I'm
also
fortunate
enough
to
have
been
a
very
long
time,
boise
resident
more
fortunate
to
have
been
born
to
natural-born
boiseans
unfortunate
enough
to
have
been
born
while
they
were
not
in
boise,
but
that
just
makes
me
appreciate
this
place
that
much
more
and
I
I
really
look
forward
to
getting
down
to
business,
of
helping
make
this
place
that
much
better.
So
thank
you.
G
Goodbye,
oh
yes,
can
I
just
say
a
couple
words.
Of
course
cece.
My
husband
ryan
served
on
ccdc
for
many
many
years
and
I
really
think
it's
one
of
the
highest
impact
commissions.
We
have
in
this
city
for
issues
of
housing,
economic
growth
and
beautifying,
our
neighborhoods,
and
turning
them
into
the
places
that
we
imagine.
So
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you.
I
know
what
a
big
time
commitment
it
is.
You'll
have
a
lot
of
materials
to
oh.
I
didn't.
G
G
D
Here,
I'd
just
like
to
say
thank
you
both
for
stepping
up
as
well.
It
makes
me
feel
older
than
I
should
feel
I
think,
to
see
someone
like
ryan,
who
I
knew
in
grade
school
in
this
position,
but
it's
really
great
to
to
see
the
the
younger
people
in
this
community
stepping
into
these
positions,
because
I
really
think
in
the
long
run
that's
what's
going
to
make
this
continue
to
make
this
community
be
a
great
place.
So
thank
you
both.
I
really
appreciate
it.
A
Well,
thank
you
and
thank
you
both
as
well.
I
will
see
you
soon
and
with
that
we'll
move
into
the
consent
agenda.
All
items
with
an
asterisk
are
considered
to
be
routine
by
the
council
and
will
be
enacted
by
one
motion.
There
will
be
no
separate
discussion
on
these
items
unless
a
council,
member
or
citizen
so
requests,
in
which
case
the
item
will
be
removed
from
the
general
order
of
business
and
considered
in
its
normal
sequence.
G
So
it
was
really
heartening
to
read
through
this
consent
agenda
and
see
so
much
movement
on
our
goals.
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
was
reflected.
C
Ord
7-2

a
new

A
A
Without

a
unanimous

The

A
K
A
D
B
C
D
K
C
A
A
Expected
so
I
just
wanted
to
confirm
that
okay
great
so
we
have
a
hearing
on
the
amendment
to
the
development
impact
fee
code,
one
on
the
proposed
impact
fee
increase
and
then
cpa
21-6,
which
is
a
comp
planned
amendment
that
adopts
the
fire
park
and
boise
cip
capital
improvement
plans
by
reference,
and
with
that
so,
oh
yeah,
it
says
right
here,
they'll
be
taken
by
all
at
once.
The
we've
got
travis
and
then
we
do
have
other
staff
here
on
this
evening
as
well.
That
are
here
to
take
questions
or
add
context.
A
The
applicant
is
technically
the
city
of
boise.
We
have
the
neighborhood
association,
bvna
rob
stark.
Are
you
here
hi
there?
Okay,
so
then
we'll
move
to
you
and
then
I've
got
folks
online
that
I
signed
up
to
testify
in
advance
and
then
those
of
you
that
have
signed
up
on
different
sheets
here
that
we'll
work
through
as
well,
and
for
those
of
you
that
are
online.
A
If
we
don't
call,
you
don't
worry,
just
raise
your
little
zoom
hand
and
after
we've
gone
through
the
public.
We'll
ask
a
couple
different
times.
If
there
are
more
folks
here
to
testify
and
we'll
call
you
one
at
a
time
and
at
that
point
the
clerk
will
elevate
you
in
some
way,
so
that
we
can
see
you
and
we
can
hear
you
with
that,
go
ahead.
L
Thank
you
mayor
as
you
just
referenced,
we'll
be
going
through
all
three
topics
in
one
presentation
just
to
try
to
make
expedient
use
of
time,
and
I
will
also
try
to
go
through
this
as
quickly
as
I
can
but
feel
free
to
interrupt
me.
Ask
questions
anywhere
along
the
line,
I'll
just
try
to
breeze
through
most
of
it,
so
we
can
get
to
the
public
testimonies.
It
sounds
like
we'll
have
plenty
of
that.
L
L
We're
updating
this
impact
fee
plan
at
this
point,
because
it's
required
under
idaho
code
to
be
done
every
five
years.
It's
also
a
prudent
time
to
do
it,
given
the
cost
escalation
that
we've
seen
in
the
treasure
valley
and
the
region
overall
over
the
last
five
years
to
make
sure
we
have
updated
costs
in
there,
and
that
is
the
primary
driver
of
the
increased
cost
that
you
see
in
front
of.
You
is
just
the
underlying
costs
that
we're
experiencing
in
the
construction
market.
L
Part
of
this
year-long
process
has
been
a
thorough
review
by
the
development
impact
fee,
advisory
committee
or
dfac
city
council,
the
planning
and
zoning
commission,
each
of
which
will
be
discussed
shortly.
L
Before
getting
into
the
process
that
we
went
through,
I
wanted
to
briefly
mention
much
of
the
detailed
work
that
was
done
for
this
report
and
in
fact
the
report
itself
was
done
by
ann
wescott
of
galena
consulting.
L
Galena
helped
refine
our
plans,
budgets,
growth
assumptions
and
guided
us
through
a
host
of
other
questions
at
every
step
along
the
way.
Galena
was
a
key
partner
and
we
relied
heavily
on
anne's
expertise
and
experience,
and
I
wanted
to
take
this
opportunity
to
personally
thank
ann
and
behalf
on
the
rest
of
the
staff
for
all
the
help
that
anne
has
been
over
this
over
this
time,
starting
with
the
the
defact
review
process.
L
This
was
ongoing
over
seven
or
eight
monthly
meetings,
culminating
in
the
plan's
ultimate
unanimous
approval,
or
excuse
me
recommendation
in
november
as
part
of
defects
review,
several
public
safety
representatives
provided
background
and
supporting
information
to
the
committee.
Likewise,
the
park,
superintendent
and
public
works
facility
staff
detailed
cost
assumptions
across
a
wide
variety
of
projects.
L
L
The
one
of
the
other
things
excuse
me
that
we
worked
on
them
with
was
to
change
the
number
of
persons
per
household,
and
this
resulted
in
having
a
flat
number
of
square
feet
per
person
as
before,
the
the
previous
method.
It
varied
depending
on
the
size
of
the
unit,
and
so
this
helps
ensure
growth
pays
for
growth,
because
we're
ensuring
that
we're
capturing
all
the
growth
by
making
sure
that
we
think
that
we
have
the
best
estimate
that
we
possibly
can
for
persons
per
household.
L
Similarly,
dfac
also
recommended
that
the
size
categories
be
updated,
since
some
of
the
categories
were
relatively
underutilized
and
also
to
produce
uniform
variants
between
the
categories.
So
now
they
all
go
up
in
700
square
foot
increments
and
will
be,
although
not
evenly
distributed
more
evenly
distributed
than
the
the
previous
categories
were
again.
All
this
is
with
the
goal
of
ensuring
we
actually
realize
the
collections
we're
projecting
over
the
next
10
years.
A
And
would
you
please
for
the
public's
understanding,
I'm
sure,
information
on
dvac
the
development
impact
fee
advisory
committee?
Who
who
makes
up
that
committee.
L
Sure
there
are
several
members
representing
the
building
community,
the
the
real
estate
committee
community.
Excuse
me:
there
are
several
representatives
representing
local
area
associations
and
just
community
involvement
overall,
and
it's
an
iterative
process
that
we
go
through
with
that
committee
to
ensure
that
the
plans
that
we
put
forward
are,
you
know,
just
balanced
and
overall
considered
as
best
as
we
can
from
a
variety
of
viewpoints.
L
This
will
be
a
very
quick
slide
so,
as
I
don't
need
to
tell
you
what
I've
already
told
you,
but
over
the
past
year
we
worked,
we
provided
regular
updates
to
council
on
critical
updates.
You
know
to
seek
advice
on
critical
updates
and
seek
direction
on
important
questions.
L
L
L
We
also
went
through
several
questions,
talking
about
location
parks,
parks,
timing,
and
then
we
also
discussed
ways
to
align
the
micro
parks
and
connectivity
and
access
projects
to
align
with
the
mass.
The
pathways
master
plan.
L
The
planning
and
zoning
commission
was
the
penultimate
formal
step
in
this
process
in
early
january
staff,
provided
a
an
overview
to
planning
and
zoning
that
was
similar
to
the
presentation
I
gave
to
you
at
the
end
of
november
to
review
the
the
plan,
the
public
hearing
on
this
on
the
comprehensive
plan.
Amendment
was
held
three
weeks
ago,
during
which
the
committee
heard
public
testimony
and
ultimately
the
commissioners
voted
unanimously
to
recommend
approval
of
the
comp
plan
amendment.
L
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
council
members,
I'll
now
quickly
review
some
of
the
key
items
in
the
impact
free
report
that
was
prepared
by
galena
consulting
and
that
report
was
included
in
the
attachments
to
tonight's
or
I'm
sorry
in
the
exhibit
to
tonight's
agenda.
L
At
a
very
high
level,
the
city
is
expecting
10-year
growth
of
just
over
30
000
residents
that
translates
into
just
over
12
000
dwelling
units
and
42
percent
of
that
is
anticipated
to
be
multi-family
and,
as
you
all
know,
we've
historically
varied
impact
fees
based
on
the
size
of
the
unit,
as
there
are
more
people
in
larger
homes,
so
more
burden
on
resources,
and
that
this
report
continues
that
methodology
on
the
commercial
side,
we're
projecting
6.4
million
square
feet,
growth,
22
and
that
represents
22
of
the
overall
square
footage
growth
in
the
city
of
boise.
L
L
L
Sorry,
consolidated
city
support
facility
that
will,
it
will
house
things
like
the
parks,
the
parks,
maintenance
facility,
fire
logistics,
evidence
and
record
storage
for
the
police
department,
and
so
a
portion
of
the
cost
of
that
consolidated
facility
is
also
addressed
by
the
impact
fee
plan.
L
L
In
terms
of
the
specific
parks,
cip,
nearly
17
million
in
impact
fees
will
be
used
to
support
regional
park
assets,
including
new
parks
such
as
sewell
howell,
and
addition,
a
portion
of
the
alta
harris
plan,
there's
also
funding
for
existing
regional
facilities,
such
as
spaulding
ranch,
mcdevitt,
the
optimus
youth,
complex
additional
funds
have
been
programmed
for
greenbelt
connectivity,
improvements
and
trailheads.
L
Finally,
as
I,
as
I
just
mentioned,
there's
a
consolidated
main
consolidated
city
facility
that
will
house
a
new
parks,
maintenance
shop
and
importantly,
part
of
that
cost
is
funded
by
impact
fees.
But
the
interesting
thing
about
that
is
it
also
free
up
very
valuable,
real
estate
downtown
for
better
uses
than
a
park
maintenance
facility,
notably
and
hopefully
affordable,
housing.
L
So,
just
to
quickly
run
through
the
the
local
park
plans.
The
list
on
the
screen
shows
the
amount
that
will
be
spent
in
various
planning
areas
and
it's
sorted
by
population
growth.
So
you
can
see
that
the
highest
population
growth
would
be
expected
in
the
central
bench
as
the
density
there
increases
and
then
the
amounts
given
just
to
clarify
that's
the
the
forecasted
collections
over
the
next
10
years.
So
what
do
we
need
to
collect
to
fund
the
projects?
L
L
L
L
L
Finally,
on
the
commercial
side,
fees
are
not
assessed
for
parks,
either
regional
or
local,
on
commercial
construction,
and,
as
I
mentioned,
that
the
outset
fees
are
based
on
type
of
use
and
size.
So,
as
you
can
maybe
kind
of
see
on
on
the
screen
now
it's
industrial,
retail
and
office
and
those
are
assessed
as
a
dollar
amount
per
thousand
square
feet
and
those
amounts
are
like,
I
said,
barely
visible
on
the
screen
and-
and
you
know
really
this.
This
concludes
my
prepared
remarks.
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
G
You
got
a
mayor,
yes,
I
have
a
question
I
think
for
doug,
probably
about
the
micro
parks,
so
I
saw
a
couple
of
little
budget
items
in
there
for
micro
parks
at
I
think
1.25
million
a
piece
realistically
with
real
estate
prices.
How
much
is
that
going
to
get
us
from?
M
Yeah,
madam
mayor
council,
pro
tem
whittings.
We
have
not
gone
out
and
started
to
price
some
of
those
micro
park
opportunities.
Just
give
you
a
rule
of
thumb.
We
have
a
very
small
park
on
gary
lane,
that's
one
and
a
half
acres
and
the
green
up,
for
that
is
about
four
to
five
hundred
thousand
dollars.
M
The
the
budget
amount
you
see
of
1.25
is
something
that
you
as
council
have
set
aside
to
look
at
at
some
micro
park
in
the
southeast
planning
area,
but
we
have
not
investigated
some
of
those
areas
yet
to
see
what
what
we
could
get
for
that
amount,
but
we
will
be
starting
that
process
after
we
get
through
this
impact
fee
analysis,
okay,
gotcha,.
N
L
Correct
for
that
largest
size
category
that
total
and
you
are
reading
that
correctly,
would
be
just
under
12
000
at
11
910.
L
But
but
the
important
thing
to
keep
in
mind
is
the
relative
service
levels
and
that's
why
I,
when
I
began
talking
about
the
parks,
I
mentioned
the
1.3
billion
that
we
have
in
current
assets
that
just
creates
such
a
high
level
of
service
that
it
creates
a
very
high,
spend
to
continue
that
level
of
service.
But
I
can
fast
forward
to.
L
So
yes,
so,
yes,
the
fees
are
going
up,
however,
as
a
percentage
of
your
median
home
price,
it's
relatively
consistent
to
where
we
are
in
the
current
fee
regime,
which
is
shown
on
this
page
here
as
well,
so
both
the
the
today's
amount,
which
is
the
2700
and
then
tomorrow's
average,
which
would
be
just
under
8
000..
L
A
O
L
Correct
some
have
been
more
recently
updated.
But
again,
you
know
part
of
the
distinction.
Is
you
know
a
a
city
that
has
relatively
limited
services
again,
so
maybe
you're,
adding
a
park
or
two
for
all
of
your
new
development,
as
opposed
to
a
dozen
parks
over
the
next
couple
of
years.
L
D
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
travis,
so
a
couple
of
questions.
D
First,
following
up
on
this
line
of
questioning,
as
I
understand
it,
we
at
least
used
to
be
and
that
we
may
still
be
the
only
city
that
attempts
to
collect
100
percent
of
the
cost
of
continuing
the
same
service
level
onto
new
growth
that
is
eligible
rather
than
asking
existing
residents
to
pay
for
services
for
new
growth
is
that
it
used
to
be
that
we
didn't
and
we've
been
working
hard
to
ensure
that
it
actually
was
100
of
the
cost
that
that
they're
imposing
on
the
service
level.
L
That
is
very
much
correct.
Just
for
example,
many
parks
in
this
plan
were
are
a
hundred
percent
allocated
to
growth.
Likewise,
for,
although
for
things
like
that,
consolidated
support
facility,
that
does
vary,
and
it's
not
100,
because
it's
not
100
growth
related.
However,
we
spent
lots
of
time
working
with
dfac
over.
You
know,
making
sure
that
we
were
recouping
the
right
amount
when
it
came
to
things
like
fire
stations
and
so
that
at
least
based
on
20
21,
we'll
see
when
we
get
there.
We
do
think
we'll
be
recovering
100.
D
Okay,
and
and
in
addition,
if
you
read
the
report,
we're,
as
you
said,
looking
at
making
sure
that
the
proportionate
share
is
being
charged
and
not
more,
not
less,
so
we're
not
asking
anyone
to
pay
more
than
what
they'll
get
in
services,
but
we're
also
trying
to
ensure
that
they
don't
pay
less.
Is
that
am
I
reading
that
correctly.
D
D
As
I
read
back
over
our
documents
in
2003,
the
south
boise
original
south
boise
village
brought
forward
their
knit
first
neighborhood
plan
and
they
asked
in
that
plan
for
a
micro
park,
and
we
accepted
that
plan.
We've
had
it
on
the
books
since
2003,
it's
a
neighborhood
that
was
built
beginning
in
the
1890s.
D
L
Phone
a
friend
says:
yes,
that
is
true.
Sorry,
I
just
don't
have
the.
D
A
P
P
No,
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
you
understood
that
in
to
council
president
clegg's
point
about
recovery
of
100
percent.
All
of
the
cities
on
exhibit
6-2
are
now
recovering
at
100,
so
everyone
is
finally
catching
up
to
boise
in
that
policy
decision.
So
those
are
comps
that
are.
Are
everyone
charging
at
100.
N
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I
had
another
question,
but
if
there's
other
counsel
go
ahead,
you're
good,
so
I'm
I'm
newbie
on
this.
So
this
this
may
be
a
question.
They've
asked
had
been
answered
before
in
some
of
the
previous
conversations,
but
I'm
trying
to
get
my
head
around
the
fact
that
you
know
these.
These
are
sticker
shock
numbers
for
me
and
I
understand
that
they
might
react,
relate
to
the
current
prices
of
homes,
but
are
are
we
putting
the
burdens
of?
N
Are
we
putting
burdens
on
new
developments
that
for
ongoing
expenses
that
should
be
part
of
the
general
fund?
I
mean
I
I'm
concerned
about
that,
and
maybe
you
could
walk
me
through
some
of
this
and
maybe
that's
what
this
is
intended
to
do,
but
it
seems
like
that
we
may
be
so
help
me.
Help
me
see
understand
that
better.
L
Sure
so
it's
actually
a
very
good
question
when
it
comes
to
drawing
the
distinction
between
one
time
and
ongoing
costs,
and
so
the
the
money
that
the
general
fund
receives
largely
in
the
form
of
property
taxes
is
essentially
designed
to
handle
those
ongoing
costs,
so
the
impact
fees
might
pay
to
build
that
fire
station
or
that
new
park
ongoing
general
fund
100
general
fund
budget
dollars
again
property
tax
dollars.
That's
what's
used
to
fund
the
ongoing
operation
of
that
fire
station,
the
maintenance
of
the
park,
etc.
A
All
right-
and
I
I'll
just
kind
of
put
it
in
simple
language.
A
A
And
I
can
ask
technical
to
raise
the
volume
of
that
mic.
We
can
always
try
that
one
too
go
ahead
and
try
and
see
what
happens.

Rob
stark

association,

madam
maber
council
members.
Before
I
get
into
the
topic
at
hand,
I'd
just
like
to
say,
bvna's
been
playing
catch
up
on
this
for
the
last
couple
months
before
december,
none
of
us
had
even
heard
of
the
development
impact
fee
advisory
committee.
Q
We
tried
to
educate
ourselves.
We
were
preparing
to
speak
with
dyfac
at
their
next
meeting,
which
didn't
turn
out
to
be
until
february
weekend.
Before
that
meeting
we
found
out
the
cip
was
going
to
be
in
front
of
pnz
that
monday,
so
we
scrambled
to
get
in
front
of
pnz
spent
the
last
few
weeks
preparing
to
testify
tonight
rallying
our
neighbors.
Q
We
were
surprised
when
we
saw
the
agenda
come
out
friday,
and
it
was
three
items
instead
of
one
and
a
lot
of
fretting
over
that
to
get
here,
we
pivoted
to
do
it
we're
volunteers.
I
can't
believe
the
amount
of
hours
that
we
have
needed
to
spend
on
this,
and
we
don't
feel
that
any
neighborhood
association,
let
alone
an
ordinary
citizen,
should
have
to
work
this
hard
to
try
to
get
the
city
to
provide
expected
and
promised
services
that
are
paid
for
by
their
impact
fees.
Q
The
barber
valley,
neighborhood
association,
believes
that
the
amendment
to
the
development
impact
fee
code
and
the
proposed
impact
fee
increase
is
seriously
flawed
and
needs
to
be
sent
back
for
significant
changes.
The
comprehensive
planned
text
amendment
does
not
address
changes
in
conditions
within
our
community
that
have
occurred
since
the
boise
city.
Comprehensive
plan
was
adopted
and
it
is
not
in
compliance
with
the
goals,
objectives
and
policies
of
the
boise
city,
comprehensive
plan.
Q
Q
According
to
the
maps
in
the
report
and
in
arches
foothills
developments
in
the
barber
valley
are
having
their
impact
fees
fund.
The
north
river,
instead
of
the
barber
valley,
are
these
new
homes,
creating
a
need
for
park
services
in
the
northeast
and
west
hands,
or
are
they
creating
a
need
in
the
barber
valley?
Q
Additionally,
the
peace
valley,
overlook
reserve,
which
was
bought
with
money
raised
by
barber
valley
residents,
is
not
even
included
in
the
report
and
the
golda
harris
park,
which
is
clearly
in
the
barber
valley,
is
listed
as
being
in
north
river.
How
credible
is
the
rest
of
the
data
in
this
report?
Q
When
there
are
this
glaring
of
omissions,
we
would
argue
that
the
barber
valley
should
have
its
own
district,
separate
from
southeast
boise
due
to
the
natural
barriers
of
the
boise
river,
as
well
as
table
rock
in
the
mesa.
The
barber
valley
is
separated
from
the
rest
of
boise
and
other
parks,
creating
a
hardship
for
our
residents
to
access
playgrounds
and
other
park
services.
Q
The
residents
we
represent
are
justifiably
upset
with
the
pattern
that
is
being
established
of
diverting
impact
fees
generated
in
the
barber
valley
to
projects
in
other
areas
of
boise.
Instead
of
building
the
long
overdue
alta
harris
park,
the
lion's
share
of
impact
fees
in
southeast
boise
are
being
generated
by
development
in
the
barber
valley.
Q
A
significant
amount
of
park
impact
fees
have
been
generated
by
development
in
the
barber
valley.
Yet
all
we
have
to
show
for
it
is
a
property
full
of
cheat
grass
and
a
negative
balance
in
the
southeast
park.
Impact
fee
account
at
the
november
30th
council
meeting.
Mr
black
told
this
council
that
impact
fee
funds
earmarked
for
alta
harris
were
used
to
advance
boulder
park
instead
of
being
used
towards
alta
harris.
Q
Q
Mr
black's
presentation
on
november
30th
showed
a
proposed
parks
impact
fee
in
southeast
boise
of
one
thousand
five
hundred
and
eleven
dollars
per
person.
Today
it
is
at
one
thousand
two
hundred
twenty
one
dollars
per
person
on
november
thirtieth.
The
only
line
item
for
parks
in
southeast
boise
was
4.8
million
for
alta
harris.
Q
When
bvna
was
not
happy
with
the
discussion
regarding
the
cip
on
november
30th,
and
we
prepared
to
go
to
the
next
meeting
of
the
development
impact
fee
advisory
committee
to
bring
up
our
concerns,
only
difact
did
not
have
another
public
meeting
before
presenting
these
different
numbers
to
pnz
on
february
7th,
it
appears
to
us.
The
changes
were
made
behind
closed
doors,
with
zero
public
meetings
prior
to
being
presented
to
pnz.
Q
Well,
we
are
uncertain
how
harris
ranch
cid
fits
into
all
of
this.
We
are
aware
that
the
harris
family
was
reimbursed
for
the
alta
harris
park
property
through
the
cid
and
that
the
harris
family
proposed
to
build
the
park
themselves
and
be
reimbursed
by
the
cid,
but
the
city
declined
this
offer.
The
land
has
subsequently
sat
vacant
for
several
years.
Growing,
cheap
grass,
instead
of
being
an
active
part
of
our
community,
while
construction
costs
have
continued
to
rise,
tax,
paying
residents
expect
three
basic
services
for
the
taxes
they
pay
police,
fire
and
parks.
Q
Anything
beyond
that
is
gravy.
It's
imperative
that
the
city
meet
the
needs
in
these
three
areas
before
spending
money
elsewhere.
The
city
is
currently
failing.
The
tax
paying
residence
of
the
barber
valley,
because
the
barber
valley
is
severely
deficient
in
park
services,
almost
all
berber
valley
residents,
are
more
than
a
10-minute
walk
from
a
park
and
many
face
a
walk
of
more
than
an
hour
to
reach
the
two
city
parks
in
the
barber
valley.
Q
Q
We
sincerely
hope
that
not
having
a
council
representative
from
southeast
boise
does
not
hurt
our
fight
to
make
sure
that
the
impact
fees
generated
in
the
barber
valley
are
used
to
build
a
city
park
and
playground
in
the
barber
valley.
So
children
have
a
place
in
our
neighborhood
to
go.
Be
children
instead
of
diverting
impact
fees
to
put
a
park
in
an
area
that
is
already
well
served.
Q
The
taxpayers
expect
for
the
tax
dollars
they're
paying
the
city,
finds
money
to
pay
for
various
projects
and
wish
lists
and
programs
stop
failing
the
taxpaying
residents
of
the
barber
valley
and
find
the
money
to
complete
this
part
and
not
just
a
green
up,
but
a
park
with
a
playground.
The
park
that'll
serve
as
an
activity
center
that
the
barber
valley
is
currently
lacking.
C
R
Madam
mayor
members
of
the
council,
my
name
is
gary
veesey.
I
reside
at
4150
macbeth
avenue
in
boise,
I'm
speaking
tonight
as
a
barber
valley
resident,
but
for
full
transparency.
I'm
also
a
bva
bvna
director
over
100
barber
valley
residents
provided
concerned,
written
testimony
plus
over
110
recreationally
minded
individuals
from
the
barber
valley
and
beyond
also
expressed
concerns
regarding
park
planning
areas
when
large
projects
such
as
harris
north
and
harris
east.
Two
major
subdivisions
unarguably
in
the
barber
valley
are
part
of
the
adjacent
north
river
planning
area.
It
doesn't
pass
the
smell
test.
R
Considering
this,
the
development
fees
already
paid
for
harris
north
have
become
part
of
the
north
river
allocation
and
not
ours.
How
does
that
help
get
alta
harris
park
built?
It
doesn't
further
peace
valley,
overlook,
reserve
is
not
addressed
in
the
consultant
report
and
golda
harris
nature
reserve,
which
is
physically
located
in
the
barber
valley,
is
also
part
of
the
north
river
planning
area
area.
Two
irregularities
boundaries
should
relate
to
the
physical
geography
that
they
enclose.
R
R
R
I
ask
each
of
you
to
support
the
following
four
items:
amend
the
code
and
part
planning
boundary
park,
planning
area
boundaries,
excuse
me
and
include
foothill
properties
that
are
considered
by
all
to
be
a
part
of
our
neighborhood
reallocate
harris
north
funds
back
to
our
planning
area
and
barber
valley.
Specifically,
three.
R
Please
adhere
to
the
impact
fee
act
and
spend
the
impact
fees
generated
in
the
barber
valley.
In
the
barber
valley,
we
are
the
growth
area
and
stop
reallocating
funds
to
other
neighborhoods
and
adding
park
projects
elsewhere,
such
as
a
micro
park,
almost
five
miles
away
by
reducing
funding
for
alta
harris
park.
R
B
D
Mayor,
could
I
ask
a
question
of
staff?
Sure
travis,
I
don't
know
if
it's
you
or
somebody
else,
but
my
memory
is
not
that
we
were
presented
a
plan
with
a
4.8
million
dollar
alta
harris,
but
that
we
were
presented
a
plan
with
a
with
no
money
designated
toward
alta
harris
and
that
we,
in
talking
to
you
added
money
for
alta
harris
to
make
sure
that
the
impact
fees
in
the
next
couple
of
years
did
in
fact
collect
toward
that
that
park.
L
Sure
so
it's
I
would
say
mostly
correct,
excuse
me,
so
the
plan
that
was
presented
to
dfac
as
prepared
did
not
include
the
funding
for
alta
harris
in
any
amount.
L
S
Hi,
thank
you.
My
name
is
shelly
hodges
and
I
reside
at
5325.
East
branchwood
drive
83716..
I
am
speaking
as
a
barber
valley
resident
have
lived
here
for
eight
years
almost
and
I
was
in
columbia,
village
before
then.
So.
I've
had
a
very
front
row
seat
to
the
growth
of
the
barber
valley,
and
I
am
here
and
talking
because
of
my
concern
regarding
the
the
delay
and
the
redirection
of
funds,
possibly
for
the
alta
harris
park.
S
Our
area
really
does
remain
underserved
with
parks
compared
to
the
rest
of
boise,
especially
ones
that
give
children
a
place
to
run
around
and
be
children
and
recreate.
I
have
an
eight
I'm
sorry.
I
have
a
three
and
four
year
old
and
during
covet
I
made
a
pact
with
them
to
visit
all
the
playgrounds
and
the
city
with
parks.
So
call
me
crazy,
but
I
visited
42
parks
in
the
city,
most
of
which
required
me
to
get
in
a
car
and
drive
to
so
I
truly
realized
by
doing
that.
S
So
you
know,
unless
a
micro
park
is
in
the
central
of
the
barber
valley,
it
won't
benefit
really
any
of
us
in
the
barber
valley
and
balor
has
been
wonderful,
but
again
it
takes
me
getting
in
the
car
and
loading
up
and
going
to
a
park.
The
growth
in
the
barber
valley
is
undeniable.
If
you
drive
through
week
to
week,
you
will
see
that,
and
I
know
the
funds
that
are
being
brought
in
from
the
taxes
and
the
fees
are
there
and
there
are
no
signs
of
it.
S
Slowing
down
and
the
new
development
comes
with
little
space
for
kids
to
run
and
play
little
yards,
and
they
really.
They
need
that
and
it's
discouraging
to
hear
that
other
areas
of
the
city
might
be
benefacting
or
benefiting
from
those
impact
fees.
We
have
the
land
already
and
I
think
that's
a
key.
We
all
know
what
the
real
estate
is
here
and
the
fact
that
we
have
land
secured
for
this.
S
T
Welcome,
madam
mayor
and
city
council
members,
my
name
is
catherine,
nice
6227,
east
playwright
street
83716,
and
this
is
to
express
my
concern
and
dissatisfaction
with
the
city
of
boise's
plan
to
further
postpone
alta
harris
park
and
the
diversion
of
the
development
fees.
T
We've
heard
that
we
have
over
600
new
residential
units
coming
online
with
the
condominiums
townhouses
apartments
in
the
core
of
harris
ranch,
and
we
do
not
have
we're
not
meeting
that
goal
of
a
10-minute
walk
to
a
park,
as
we've
heard.
Others
say
this
evening
to
go
to
barber
park
or
to
go
to
bowler
park
which
are
wonderful,
but
it's
not.
Some
of
them
are
not
walkable,
it
really
would
take
30-60
minutes
or
you
would
have
to
go
in
a
car.
T
So
my
ask
of
you
this
evening
is
to
reject
any
plan
to
further
postpone
all
to
harris
park,
and
I
ask
that
you,
one
use
the
southeast
parks
impact
fee
funds
to
build
alta
harris
park,
including
the
sorely
needed
playground
space
to
reallocate
the
funds
that
were
previously
set
aside
for
the
park
and
three
apply
future
fees
paid
from
the
barber
valley.
Developments.
T
B
A
We
will
move
into
is
that
the
third
great
I'll
move
into
the
I'll
just
go
down
this
list
of
folks
that
signed
up
in
advance?
First
leo
hennessy
come
on
up.
A
No,
each
person
gets
three
minutes.
I
mean
you,
don't
have
to
speak
if
you
don't
want
to,
but
we
don't
accumulate
time.
U
I'm
leo
hennessey
and
I
live
at
4008
north
hawthorne
way-
boise.
I
haven't
been
here
for
about
25
years,
so
it's
good
to
come
back.
Oh
welcome
back
and
I
worked
in
the
parks
and
recreation
profession
for
50
years,
so
I'm
involved
in.
I
remember
going
back
here
years
ago.
I
guess
I'm
here,
because
I'm
thinking,
there's
a
possible
lost
opportunity
and
my
history
sees
shows
that
we
have
had
things
happen.
U
20
30
years
ago,
I
used
to
I've
worked
in
trails
and
in
also
in
well
just
general
parks
and
recreation,
and
I
remember
it's
really
hard
to
sell
an
idea
of
new
ideas
and
what
I'm
here
to
sell
today
really
is.
I
think
we
don't
want
to
lose.
U
The
opportunity
of
pickleball
and
pickleball
is
a
fastest
growing
sport
in
in
the
area
for
the
last
two
years,
and
I
just
wanted
to
put
it
out
there
to
say
that
we
in
trails,
I
remember
having
to
fight
to
get
things
getting
new
parks
connecting
parks.
All
that
and
the
greenbelt
trails
all
were
really
hard
to
get
and
and
mountain
biking
was
just
coming
up
and
people
didn't
know,
think
mountain
biking
was
important
and
we
fought
for
it.
U
B
K
My
name
is
dwight
eck.
I
live
at
5864,
cape
arigo
in
garden
city,
but
I
use
boise
parks
quite
frequently
and
I
use
them
for
family
events
as
well
as
pickleball
nearly
four
times
a
week,
and
I
know
that
the
area
is
just
really
in
need
of
new
pickleball
courts.
I
travel
to
albuquerque
a
lot
and
they
are
way
ahead
of
the
curve
of
boise.
They
just
approved
and
they're
starting
construction
on
18
new
dedicated
pickleball
courts.
K
They
have
24
dedicated
pickleballs
courts,
they
have
a
half
a
dozen
indoor
facilities
that
you
can
play
pickleball
at
and
they
see
the
need
to
do
that.
To
stay
ahead
of
this
sport,
and
I'm
just
here
to
say
that
I
I
enjoy
the
parks
I
use
them
and
I
use
them
mainly
for
pickleball.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
A
Well,
this
was
online
sign
up
lance
salade.
V
Members
of
city
council,
my
name,
is
lance
salade.
I
live
at
6136
north
pierce
park,
I'm
a
recent
transplant
to
that
area
of
the
city.
I
used
to
live
on
in
park
city
or
park
center
in
boise,
and
I'm
also
here
to
speak
in
favor
of
pickleball
and
the
lost
opportunity
that
city
faces.
V
Should
it
forego
the
opportunity
to
put
pickleball
in
the
altairis
park
I
did
bring
with
me.
I
don't
know
how
many
of
you
are
aware
of
what
pickleball
really
is.
I
know
mayor
mclean
has,
but
if
you're
not
it's
simply
a
a
small
paddle
and
a
wiffle
ball.
So
it's
a
relatively
cheap
sport
to
play
and
anyone
can
play
it.
There
are
people
that
that
we
play
with
here
in
boise,
from
teenagers
to
people
who
are
believe
it
or
not
in
their
90s,
and
they
are
good
at
90..
It's
a
sport.
V
It's
it's
truly
a
lifetime
sport.
It's
easy
to
learn
it's
very
social!
When
we
talk
about
community
there
is
a
community
of
pickleball
players
throughout
the
state,
and
we
need
to
recognize
that
I
think
and
make
sure
that
that
again
is
not
a
lost
opportunity.
Here
in
in
our
city
it
it's
it's
a
fitness
activity,
very
physical,
but
again
it's
it's
a
an
activity
that
everyone
can
can
learn
and
play.
V
One
of
the
facts
that
I
think
people
should
be
aware
of
is
that
selkirk,
which
is
a
company
in
north,
idaho,
hayden,
idaho,
is
one
of
the
largest
and
one
of
the
most
premier
manufacturers
of
pickleball
equipment
in
in
the
country.
Pickleball
is
played
in
60
different
countries
throughout
the
world.
It
is
the
fastest
growing
sport
in
the
world.
V
In
2019,
there
were
3.5
million
people
in
the
united
states
playing
pickleball
in
2021
there
were
4.5
million
people
playing
pickleball
and
it's
estimated
that
by
2024
there
will
be
as
many
as
20
million
people
playing
pickleball.
So
it
is
something
that
is,
is
growing
exponentially
and
needs
to
be
met
and
maintained.
V
To
give
you
an
idea,
I
I
consider
myself
a
pickleball
addict
and
I
think
a
lot
of
people
do
once
you
get
started
with
pickleball
and
it
is
within
the
first
hour
you
play
you
get
hooked.
It
is.
It
is
an
amazingly
fun
activity
and
to
give
you
an
idea
how
addicted
my
wife
and
I
are
when
we
plan
a
vacation.
V
V
Pickleball
can
generate
funds.
Last
fall.
There
was
a
pickleball
regional,
pickleball
tournament
here
in
boise
that
generated
well
brought
in
over
a
thousand
people
from
states
as
far
as
illinois,
oklahoma,
texas,
not
just
mention
the
surrounding
washington,
idaho,
mon
or
washington,
oregon
california,
and
it
generated
a
lot
of
money
for
the
city.
So
that's
an
opportunity
that
needs
to
be
made.
If
you
build
it,
they
will
come.
W
A
W
I
think
it
was
in
2020.
It
was
one
of
the
first
park
dedications
that
I
was
able
to
be
a
part
of
it
was
our
new
pickleball
courts
out
by
the
west
y,
and
that
was
about
the
first
time
that
I
had
heard
of
pickleball
and
saw
it,
and
one
of
the
things
I
learned
about
pickleball
is
that
nobody
likes
pickleball
people,
love
pickleball,
there's
there's
no
in
between
you,
you
just
everybody
who
plays
it.
They
absolutely
love
it
they're,
passionate
about
it.
W
It
was
pretty
incredible
to
see
and,
like
you
said,
there
was
certainly
all
ages
of
folks
who
were
who
were
interested
in
playing
it
and
then
later
you
know
the
tournament
was
there
as
well,
and
so
it
is
interesting
to
see
how
many
folks
are
suddenly
requesting
this
over
the
last
couple
years
and
I
don't
think
it
is
lost
on
most
of
our
council
members.
At
this
point
there
is
a
pickleball
fever
in
boise,
so
we
definitely
appreciate
that.
X
G
It
took
me
a
while
to
find
this
again.
I
remember
kind
of
combing
through
and
seeing
this
so
it
says
for
ulta
harris.
We
have
green
up
and
limited
amenities
that
are
coming
from
the
southeast
area,
and
then
we
also
have
regional
amenities
that
are
coming
from
the
regional
1.2
million
in
regional
amenities.
Coming
from
the
regional
account.
Can
you
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
that?
I
feel
like
it's
something
that
hasn't
really
been
talked
about
at
all.
L
Sure
so,
at
a
very
high
level,
the
the
local
parks
fees
are
designed
to
pay
for
what
was
viewed
as
a
local
amenity.
As
I
think
we've
heard
in
the
testimony,
it's
you
know
going
to
be
an
important
asset
for
the
region.
The
people
that
live
in
the
area.
L
A
Y
Y
Hi,
my
name
is
joe
pearson.
I
live
at
5196,
east
quarter,
path,
drive
in
harris
ranch
and
my
wife
and
I
have
lived
out
in
harris
ranch
for
over
17
years
and
we
first
moved
out
there
because
all
our
kids
were
going
there
for
playdates,
so
we
moved
out
there
and
then
we
found
out
that
all
our
kids
when
they
got
into
lacrosse
and
football
and
soccer
we
had
to
take
them
back
into
town
for
the
nearest
park.
Y
So
we
were
constantly
being
soccer,
moms
and
dads
taking
our
kids
around,
because
there's
nothing
out
there
in
terms
of
parks,
and
that
was
years
ago
my
kids
are
colleagues
now.
So
it's
not
an
issue,
but
it's
grown
about.
You
know,
quadrupled
or
more
out
there,
so
the
problem's,
probably
even
worse,
for
for
the
parents
now,
but
now
that
my
kids
are
grown.
I
play
a
lot
of
pickleball
as
a
lot
of
people
here
now
and
in
the
mornings.
Y
I
drive
all
the
way
to
meridian
because
there's
no
pickleball
courts
near
me
for
indoor,
so
I
drive
to
meridian
in
the
afternoons
I
drive
to
either
willa
lane
or
to
manito,
or
I
might
drive
back
and
forth
because
one's
too
crowded
and
I
go
back
to
the
other,
because
the
courts
are
too
full
so
and
I
also
travel
a
lot
to
play.
Pickleball
and
I've
gone
to
several
towns,
and
the
first
thing
I
do
like
lance
is
to
go,
find
it
to
find
pickleball,
and
you
know
some
of
the
towns.
Y
I've
been
to
I've
been
to
brigham
city
utah,
which
has
24
courts.
17
are
lit
and
they
have
a
population
of
two
thousand
twenty
thousand
people.
So
it's
like
eight
hundred
and
thirty
three
people
per
cart
in
in
in
brigham
city,
and
I
won't
list
all
of
them
or
bend
organs.
The
same
way.
One
of
their
locations
has
16
courts,
saint
george
utah,
and
I'm
only
talking
dedicated
outdoor
city-run
courts.
Y
St
george
utah
has
52
courts,
one
facility
one
park
has
24
courts
and
then
various
parts
have
parks
have
eight
courts
and
most
of
them
are
lit
and
they're
all
run
by
the
city.
So
52,
courts
and
and
and
say
george-
has
a
population
of
85
000..
So
you
know
in
terms
of
of
the
the
courts,
we
have
we're
way
underserved
compared
to
a
lot
of
the
other
towns
I
go
to,
and
it's
not
just
it's,
not
just
retired
people
like
myself.
Y
If
you
go
to
saint
george
in
the
mornings,
it's
retired
people
it's
moms
and
that
have
gotten
their
kids
off
to
school
and
then
in
the
afternoons
you've
got
junior
high,
kids
and
you've
got
high
school
kids
and
then
the
evenings
you
have
you,
have
you
have
people
getting
off
work?
You
have
whole
families
coming
to
the
park
and
playing
pickleball.
So
it
really
is
not
just.
Y
A
Full
disclosure,
except
for
the
primer
I
got
from
the
pickleball
association
back
in
2019.
It
was
joe
and
his
wife
kathy
that
taught
my
husband
and
I
had
a
play.
But,
unlike
lance
saying
that
everybody
can
play,
I
can't
get
the
ball
over
the
net
and
my
husband
can't
keep
the
ball
in
the
court.
But
even
though
we're
terrible
at
it,
they
have
a
ton
of
patience
with
us
and
we
really
love
playing
it
and
so
agree
that
it's
it's
a
great
sport,
yeah
and.
Y
Z
Thanks
joe
hi,
madam
mayor
city,
council,
jimmy
halliburton
is
one
of
the
first
people
that
we
met
when
we
moved
here,
our
daughter
was
doing
grad
school.
Here
we
came
to
visit,
I
said,
don't
make
me
leave
and
we
moved
here.
My
husband
got
out
of
boise
state
jimmy
turned
to.
We
became
part
of
the
bike
community.
We
caught
the
vision
of
being
the
capital,
the
bike
capital
of
the
world
and
howard,
and
I
got
rid
of
our
second
car.
We
have
one
car
and
we
ride
our
bikes
whenever
we
can.
Z
What
we
love
about
boise
is,
we
can
ride
everywhere
and
this
fall.
I
joined
up
at
fort
boise
community
center
because
I
love
being
part
of
my
community
center
after
the
pandemic.
I
needed
a
place
to
work
out
snuck
over
in
the
gym.
There's
this
pickleball
going
on
and
the
next
thing
you
know.
I
have
this
brand
new
community
of
adults,
my
age
and
older,
who
love
pickleball
my
background's
mental
health
counseling,
and
I
want
to
say
that
I
think
the
reason
that
we
love
pickleball
isn't
so
much
about
the
pickleball.
Z
It
is
about
what
happens
in
that
environment.
There
was
an
article
I
think
this
last
week
by
a
woman
who
teaches
at
harvard
on
happiness,
and
the
research
shows
that
they
said
that
people
who
go
to
church
are
happier
than
people
that
don't
and
then
they
did
the
research
a
little
bit
farther
and
what
they
found
out
is
it
wasn't
so
much
the
spirituality
of
the
church,
but
the
potlucks
and
the
events
that
happened
when
people
were
together.
Z
What
happens
in
pickleball
I'll
try
to
say
this
fast
is
the
magic
of
happiness
people
are
in
the
moment.
You
have
to
keep
your
eye
on
the
ball.
You
can't
think
about
what
you're
making
for
dinner.
You
have
to
stay
present.
We
have
positive
connections
in
pickleball,
we
say
nice
things
to
the
person
we're
playing
with,
and
we
say
nice
things
to
the
people
on
the
other
side.
If
there's
a
good
serve
and
they
knock
us
out,
we
say
nice
serve
what
else.
What
else
happened?
Oh
I'm
trying
to
think
there's.
We
laugh.
Z
We
laugh
all
the
time
and
we
celebrate
life.
Pickleball
is
more
than
just,
and
we
exercise
aerobic
and
anaerobic.
It's
a
wonderful,
wonderful
thing.
So,
yes,
if
alta
harris
can
go
through,
I
really
encourage
the
12
courts
because
it
takes
the
pressure
off
those.
I
live
in
kolster
and
hill
area
up
on
the
hill.
We
only
have
a
couple
down
and
willows
they're
cracked
they're
falling
apart,
so
we
ride
our
bikes
over
to
manitou,
where
there's
four
available.
Z
If
you
do
the
ulta
harris
and
you
put
12
quarts
in
there,
that
frees
up
more
people
to
be
able
to
do
that
and
hopefully
and
the
other
thing
about
this
pickleball
community
is
we're
retired
and
we're
smart.
We
can't
remember
what
the
score
is,
but
we
have
a
whole
lifetime
of
experience,
there's
bankers
and
architects
and
pilots
and
doctors,
and
you
give
us
a
vision.
We
will
work
hard
and
we
will
help
to
make
boise
the
pickleball
capital
of
the
world.
Thank
you.
G
Yes,
I
want
to
quickly
share
my
pickleball
story.
If
it's
okay,
so
one
time
I
was
driving
up
to
mccall
and
I
stopped
off
in
donnelly
at
the
little
park
where
they
have
pickleball
courts
and
I
just
stopped,
you
know
parked
my
car
to
go
into
the
restroom
and
a
woman
came
up
to
me
and
she
said:
are
you
here
for
the
pickleball
tournament?
G
And
I
was
you
know,
I
said
no,
I'm
just
here
to
use
restroom
and
she
said.
Are
you
sure,
because
you
can
join
our
pickleball
tournament?
Have
you
played
before
you
would
love
it,
and
she
gave
me
a
10
minute,
pickleball
lesson
and
I
almost
joined
the
tournament.
If
I
didn't,
if
I
wouldn't
have
had
to
have
needed
to
be
in
mccall,
I
would
have
stayed,
but
your
enthusiasm
is
infectious.
G
I
really
enjoy
knowing
that
when
I'm
too
worn
out
for
tennis
that
I'm
gonna
have
a
really
great
sport
to
look
forward
to
so-
and
I
appreciate
everyone
being
here.
A
AA
AA
My
first
thing
I
experienced
was
going
to
barbara
park
and
floating
down
the
boys
river
back
to
the
university
and
getting
off
and
it's
surrounded
by
parks
and
all
kinds
of
things
to
do,
biking
and
things,
and
then,
when
I
saw
two
years
ago
in
2019
the
master
plan
for
the
alta
harris
park
that
was
approved-
and
this
is
two
years
ago-
there
was
a
great
excitement
in
the
pickleball
community,
because
oh
they're
going
to
put
in
12
pickleball
courts
and
that
were
going
to
be
included
in
the
park.
AA
AA
I
started
playing
pickleball
three
years
ago
because
I
couldn't
play
racquetball
anymore,
because
I
had
knee
surgery
and
I
even
my
wife
even
started
playing
and
my
friends
started
playing
and
I've
met
all
kinds
of
friends,
so
it's
very
infectious
and
and
the
other
day
I
was,
I
saw
a
father
and
a
young
daughter
and
a
son
playing
pickleball.
They
were
just
playing
around
and
stuff
so
and
these
young
kids
looked
as
if
they
were
hitting
the
ball
with
these
giant
racquets,
because
they're
just
little
kids
and
things.
AA
But
pickleball
is
a
sport
for
everybody,
young
and
old,
and
for
recreational
purposes
and
being
competitive.
So
providing
parks
and
recreational
opportunities
is
really
important
to
community
and
the
alta
harris
park
should
be
priority
one.
We
need
those
12
planned,
pickleball
courts
and
the
park
for
everyone.
Thank
you.
AB
AB
One
of
the
things
I
did
that
I
love
about
boise
is
that
I
moved
here
about
18
years
ago
from
las
vegas
and
one
one
of
the
reasons
I
did
was
because
everyone
is
so
nice
and
inclusive.
I
had
made
several
trips
here
and
I
still
love
that
about
boise
today
and
one
of
the
things
that
I've
realized
over
time,
as
I'm
listening
to
some
of
the
talks
this
evening
are
about
that.
There's
a
need
of
more
parks,
especially
out
in
the
southeast
area.
AB
AB
My
wife
has
never
been
so
happy
and
I'm
here
on
her
behalf
to
say
that
we
need
to
keep
those
pickleball
courts
growing,
and
I
think
she
appreciates
the
fact
that
I
leave
the
house
quite
often
too
to
play
pickleball.
But
but
this
is
more
of
a
personal
thing
for
me,
as
you've
heard
many
of
the
statistics
tonight,
but
it
it
has
been
a
lifesaver
to
me
some
of
my
best
friends
I
am
able
to
play
with
pickleball
with
one
of
the
other
things
that
I
really
admire
about.
AB
AB
They'll
show
up
at
the
park
and
they'll
be
brand
new,
don't
even
know
anybody,
and
within
a
few
short
weeks
they
have
a
whole
new
group
of
friends
and
they're
adding
to
the
community,
and
I'm
just
grateful
to
have
a
lot
of
those
friendships
in
place
and
I'm
hoping
that
we
will
continue
to
look
at
building
as
we
build
parks,
especially
in
this
case
that
we
can
add
those
additional
pickleball
courts
to
add
to
those
parks
in
those
communities.
Thank
you.
Thanks.
I
Yeah,
thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
members
of
the
council.
My
name
is
courtney
bailey.
I
live
at
804,
west
richmond
street
in
boise,
idaho,
and
I
live
in
southeast
boise.
I'm
one
of
the
people
that
don
was
just
talking
about.
I
moved
to
boise
about
two
years
ago,
and
I
brought
my
husband
and
my
seven-year-old
daughter,
and
we
also
brought
my
mom.
I
I'm
an
athletic
person,
I
love
soccer
and
I
play
soccer
and
I
kind
of
came
out
and
I
just
was
wondering
if
everybody
just
kind
of
was
clicky
and
going
to
play
together
or
if,
if
they
just
kind
of
kept
playing
and
just
didn't,
want
to
notice
that
other
people
are
waiting.
And
you
know
I
really
really
avoided
eye
contact
with
everyone.
There
and
chris
walked
right
up
to
me
and
he's
like
hey.
Are
you
new,
I'm
like
yeah
and
he
goes
well?
I
Do
you
know
how
this
works
and
he
says
you
play
two
games
and
then
you
go
off
and
it
just
rotates,
and
everyone
has
a
good
time
and
like
immediately,
I
was
welcomed
and
I
started
a
new
hobby
and
I
love
it
and
my
mom
loves
it
and
she's
74
and
I'm
40
and
my
daughter
is
seven
and
she's
desperate
to
play.
I
But
I
was
at
ho
home
court
today
because
they
dropped
her
off
at
school
and
I
noticed
that
the
logo
had
two
balls
in
home
court
as
the
o's
and
one
was
a
volleyball
and
one
was
a
basketball
and
I
went
up
to
the
front
desk
and
I
said,
can
I
ask
you
a
question
when
you
built
this?
Is
this
your
biggest
demographic
like
volleyball
and
basketball?
She
said
oh
yeah,
I
said.
Is
that
still
the
case
and
she
goes
oh
no.
She
goes.
We
have
tons
of
pickleball
now
she
goes.
I
It
would
definitely
be
basketball,
then
pickleball,
and
if
we
opened
it
up
in
the
evenings,
which
we
don't
do,
we
would
have
tons
of
people
coming
in
then
as
well,
and
I
play
mostly
at
manito.
I
love
it.
I
started
playing
last
summer,
but
there's
like
there's
a
great
big
growing
community,
there's
like
four
courts,
going
with
six
to
ten
to
fifteen
paddles
waiting
in
line
to
get
to
get
in,
and
it's
wonderful
and
I
love
that
we
welcome
people.
I've
invited
my
mom
friends
from
my
daughter's
school
I've
been.
I
I
brought
my
dad
out
from
washington
and
now
he's
like
emailing
me
about
paddles
and
I
don't
know
anything
about
paddles
and
I've
invited
my
soccer
friends,
our
neighbors
across
the
street
and
my
my
husband's
best
friend
from
washington
and
his
wife
they've
been
out
and
it's
it's
something.
That's
growing
and
it's
wonderful
and
we
we're
kind
of
like
bursting
at
the
seams,
and
we
really
need
the
12
quarts
at
alta
vista
to
kind
of
support.
The
growing.

Our
suggestions
here
this
pickleball
group,
our
recommendations
and
suggestions
for
building
more
pickleball
courts
in
boise
stem
from
a
foundation
of
experience
and
enjoyment
for
this
game,
but
it
is
not
just
about
the
game.
This
is
not
just
about
all
the
fun
we
have
out
there.
This
is
about
health,
and
this
is
about
community.
AC
This
is
a
sport
in
the
spotlight
of
the
state,
the
nation
and
the
world
in
part
because
of
its
broad
appeal,
we're
asking
you
to
make
the
commitment
of
adding
more
pickleball
courts
in
boise
to
help
nurture
now
and
in
the
future,
a
healthy
community,
it's
in
our
collective
and
healthiest
best
interest
to
do
so.
Thank
you.
AD
AD
A
AD
So
I'm
thomas
snuggs,
I'm
at
4660,
south
chugwater
way,
which
is
down
in
the
barber
valley.
I
initially
came
here
to
talk
mostly
about
the
pickleball
and
why
it's
important
and
why
we
need
more
courts
at
alta
vista
because
the
other
ones
are
getting
crowded
but
and
it's
fun.
It's
social.
AD
I've
made
lots
of
friends
playing
pickleball,
not
just
friends
for
pickleball,
but
also
you
know
friends.
You
go
out
to
dinner
with
you
hang
out
with
that
type
of
thing,
and
even
in
my
neighborhood
there's
families
that
will
set
up
pickleball
net
down
in
the
street
to
play
because
well,
there's
nowhere
else
to
play.
AD
There's
no
parks
right
down
in
the
southeast
boise.
But
what
really
caught
my
attention?
I
think,
when
I
was
sitting
here
listening
to
all
this
stuff
about
the
impact
fees
which
I
didn't
know
what
they
were
was
when
I
guess
madame
clegg
mentioned
basically
said
so
the
people
in
southeast
boise
that
bought
homes
down
in
there
you
know
five
years
ago.
They
basically
got
nothing
for
their
money.
AD
We
didn't
get
a
park,
you
know
so
the
impact
fees
we
paid
all
that
money
got
pushed
to
other
parts
to
other
areas.
So
so
me,
I'm
thinking
that,
so
I
really
want
the
ulta
harris
park.
People
in
that
area
need
it
and
of
course
I
really
want
pickleball
courts
there
too,
because
you
know
pickleball
courts,
it's
it's,
it's
it'll
be
used
continuously
I
mean
you
know,
retirees
will
use
it
in
the
mornings.
People
using
afternoons.
People
come
at
night
weekends,
the
whole
time
it's
just
pickleball
is
definitely
you
know.
AD
I
just
reiterate
what
everybody
always
already
said
right,
it's
a
very
social.
It
helps
the
community.
People
are
happy
people,
it's
just,
there's
nothing
bad!
You
can
say
about
it,
there's
nothing
negative
about
building
pickleball
courts,
but
I
was
really
disappointed
in
the
fact
that
that
the
money
got
put
elsewhere
like
I
don't
understand
that
I've
been
involved
with
government.
I
know
things
happen,
but
it's
like
money
should
stay
in
the
areas
that
need
it
that
it's
their
money.
Why
move
it?
So?
AD
AD
I
don't
understand
how
a
microplot
is
going
to
do
anything
other
than
give
you
your
checkbox.
That
says
oh
they're
now
10
minutes
from
a
park
which
is
just
a
pot
of
grass,
and
I
don't
know
what
else
it
is,
but
pickleball
courts
the
soccer
fields,
the
playground,
especially
for
kids,
bocce
ball
courts.
All
that
stuff
would
be
great.
C
C
J
Yes,
can
I
ask
you
a
question
sure
thank
you
so
just
to
follow
up
on
what
the
gentleman
was
pointing
out
and
just
for
the
benefit
of
the
public.
Typically,
when
I
know
impact
fees
are
a
one-time
shot,
we
we
get
to
collect
that,
but
when
we're
talking
about
impact,
are
we
talking
about
the
area
around
it
around
the
development
or
the
impact
on
the
city?
Just
so
that
it's
clear
to
folks.
L
Sure
so,
thank
you
for
raising
that
because
it's
an
important
distinction
so
in
the
city
of
boise,
unlike
many
other
cities
around
in
the
treasure
valley,
we
actually
break
up
our
park
planning
areas
into
regions,
so
there's
the
regional
category
and
then
the
southeast
barber
valley
region,
which
is
a
local
park
area.
There's
central
banks,
there's
north
river
and
importantly,
funds
collected
within
any
of
those
individual
local
park
planning
areas,
whether
it's
southeast
west
bench
southwest,
are
used
exclusively
for
projects
in
that
same
park
planning
area.
G
Madam
mayor,
I
have
a
follow-on
question
for
that
travis.
I
know
that
something
that's
come
up.
A
couple
of
times
is
bowler
park.
G
That's
what
it's
called
right,
bowler
park,
which
was
the
last
park
in
that
planning
area,
that
we
really
did
a
full
amenity,
build
on
how
long
had
that
neighborhood
waited
for
that
park.
I
can't
remember,
when
kind
of
when
that
neighborhood
was
built
out.
G
So
they
waited
quite
a
long
time
to
get
the
appropriate
the
appropriate
development
fees
to
build
that
park
also
correct.
N
Gone
there,
I
have
just
a
general
question:
should
I
wait
or
no
go
ahead?
Okay,
so
travis
I'm
getting
my
head
around,
you
know
impact
fees
and,
and
the
testimony
I
want
to
ask
you
a
question:
is
there
anything
in
our
current
plan
that
would
be
considered
extending
services?
L
The
the
simple
answer
is
no.
This
is
purely
to
maintain
levels
of
service,
but
there
is
a
little
caveat
there
because,
for
example,
one
thing
that
we
talked
about
with
the
dfat
committee
was
well.
What
engines
are
you
going
to
put
in
that
fire
station
your
fire
station
downtown
doesn't
need
a
brush
rig,
but
maybe
the
one
going
in
on
the
northwest
side
of
town
does
need
one.
Is
that
an
increase
in
level
of
service
because
it
has
a
brush
rig?
L
A
AE
Matamaran,
council
members,
my
name
is
chris
clawherty
and
I
live
at
2884
south
greek
place,
I'm
speaking
to
you
as
a
resident
of
barbara
valley,
but
also
as
the
president
of
the
boise
pickleball
club
within
the
last
two
weeks.
Both
the
new
york
times
and
npr
had
articles
calling
pickleball
america's
fastest
growing
sport
and
the
truth.
The
exact
same
thing
is
true
of
boise
altera's
park
is
to
include
12
pickleball
courts,
which
will
benefit
barber
valley,
but
they
will
also
benefit
several
thousand
boise
pickleball
players.
Pickleball
is
a
sport.
AE
That's
fun
easy
to
learn,
inexpensive
and
enjoyed
by
people
of
all
ages
and
abilities.
It
was
first
known
as
a
great
way
for
people
in
their
50s,
60s
and
70s
to
stay
healthy,
be
active
and
socialize,
but
now
it's
growing
fastest
among
younger
people.
This
is
the
main
reason.
The
growth
is
now
accelerating.
It's
going
to
accelerate
even
faster
in
the
future.
I've
seen
people
at
every
age
playing
just
in
the
last
two
weeks.
I
saw
a
three-year-old
swinging,
a
paddle
as
tall
as
he
was,
while
his
dad
tossed
him
balls.
AE
Last
summer
I
saw
several
young
mothers
coming
out
with
their
children
to
teach
them
how
to
play.
The
number
of
players
has
grown
rapidly
here
in
the
last
seven
years.
Now
they
are
clearly
growing.
Every
month.
By
this
summer
there
will
be
many
people
at
every
dedicated
court
in
town
at
prime
times.
There
will
often
be
long
lines
and
people
will
be
unable
to
play
because
they
don't
have
the
time
to
sit
and
wait
among
those
who
will
be
turned
away.
AE
The
city
right
now
has
19
dedicated
courts,
but
most
are
on
the
west
side
or
even
the
far
west
side.
There
are
no
courts
anywhere
east
of
broadway,
the
12
courts
at
alta.
Harris
park
would
balance
out
the
courts
in
the
city
and
they'd
give
people
in
central
and
east
boise
a
place
to
play.
That
is
near
them
now.
Parks
and
rec
and
doug
holloway
have
worked
hard
to
give
people
a
place
to
play,
and
we
appreciate
that,
but
more
needs
to
be
done
and
alta
harris
is
the
perfect
place
to
do
it.
AE
Barbara
valley
is
filled
with
people
have
moved
to
the
neighborhood,
specifically
for
the
healthy
outdoor
lifestyle
it
offers
and
promotes.
These
people
are
the
prime
demographic
for
pickleball
players
by
building
alta
harris
park
and
its
pickleball
courts.
You
will
be
enhancing
the
health
happiness
and
the
well-being
of
citizens,
not
just
in
barber
valley,
but
in
all
the
surrounding
neighborhoods
throughout
this
entire
part
of
the
city.
Please
build
this
park
and
those
courts
without
delay
without
further
delay.
Thank
you
very
much,
sorry
for
the
speech,
but
I
had
to
get
it
in
three
minutes.
X
Good
evening,
for
the
record,
my
name
is
dave:
jorgeson,
14254,
west
battenburg,
tribe
boise,
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
several
groups.
I
guess
one
is
as
a
resident
long
time
resident
boise
living
in
west
boise,
and
I
appreciate
all
the
comments
today
about
pickleball
courts.
We
love
our
pickleball
courts
and
voices
has
been
used.
X
I
also
want
to
say
I
represent,
building
community.
I
work
for
the
building
contractor
association
of
southwest
idaho
and
I'm
also
a
long-time
member
of
the
dfac
development
impact
fee
advisory
committee.
I
think
this
is
the
third
capital
improvements
plan.
I've
been
a
part
of
with
city
boys.
It's
a
thorough
process.
It's
a
tough
process.
It's
a
thankless
job
frankly
to
serve
on
this
committee.
X
X
X
Costs
are
going
up,
but
I
so
in
addition
to
supporting
the
process,
I
want
to
have
a
couple
of
concerns.
First
of
all,
I
wasn't
there
when
they
voted.
I
would
not
have
voted
to
support
this
and
it's
for
for
two
reasons,
one
of
which
is
really
pretty
minor.
It's
really,
I
don't
know
how
to
balance
it
and
that
is
with
regard
to
affordable
housing.
X
I'm
worried.
We
have
a
real
problem
in
this
city
and
raising
the
fees
will
just
be
one
more
layer
of
added
cost
to
to
the
cost
of
housing,
but
at
the
same
time,
we've
got
to
collect
the
money
to
pay
for
things,
and
so
I
don't
know
how
to
solve
that
other
than
it's
real.
That's
a
problem,
but
the
bigger
concern
I
have
where
I
do
think.
There's
a
little
flaw
with
this
and
travis
highlighted
it.
I
do
believe
the
fire
impact
fee
is
slightly
too
high.
X
It
pays
for
more
than
a
level
of
service
in
a
couple
of
instances,
specifically
the
fire
stations,
not
the
brush
rig
and
we
can
kind
of
nuances
there
travis
we're
not
trying
to
go
there,
but
there's
a
few
aspects
when
we
asked
chief
niemeyer
to
defend
and
ask:
why
are
fire
stations
10.5
million
dollars
in
the
capital
improvement
plan?
That's
a
bigger
number
than
anywhere
I've
seen
across
the
treasury
valley?
Why
is
that?
X
X
The
energy
efficiency
is
going
to
be
greater
than
the
energy
code,
so
those
are
different
things
which
are
good
goals
to
have,
but
that's
increasing
level
of
service,
and
I
believe
that
should
be
paid
for
at
least
that
portion
should
be
paid
for
from
the
general
fund
and
not
so
much
so
by
the
impact
fees.
I
can
get
more
specific
to
that
and
I
won't
because
I'm
running
out
of
time.
X
I
do
think
the
city
would
be
an
error
to
not
approve
this
as
soon
as
you
can-
and
I
say
that,
because
with
all
the
growth
you're
going
to
miss
out
on
collecting
fees,
if
you
want
to
capture
the
increase
in
costs,
start
charging
the
newer
fees
as
soon
as
you
can
then
remand
some
recommendations
back
to
the
committee
to
make
adjustments.
I
think
that'd
be
a
wiser
move.
You
could
then
capture
some
of
the
comments
tonight
and
not
miss
out
on
6
12,
whatever.
A
It
and
thanks
for
your
service
on
that,
that's
a
lot
spent
a
lot
of
time
doing
it
really
appreciate
it.
B
AF
AF
Yeah
yeah,
I
mean
there's
another
ryan.
That's
I
just
found
out
once
I
bought
my
house
here.
So
all
right.
Well,
welcome!
Yes,
mayor
and
council,
I
appreciate
giving
time
for
comments.
I
am
ryan
myrie.
My
address
7235
west
cascade
drive
boise
the
big
part
as
most
of
the
my
com,
my
comrades
have
said,
is
pickleball
being
important.
AF
I
recently
moved
here
in
august,
and
the
first
thing
I
did
within
hours
of
really
driving
here
was
finding
a
pickleball
court
and
from
that
it
really
for
me
supports
of
how
much
of
a
community
builder.
It
is
because,
since
that
time
of
going
to
will
lane
complex
there
and
playing
pickleball,
I
and
I
was
playing
pickleball
before
I
came.
Obviously
I
had,
but
I
have
found
a
community-
that's
cool
that
spans
many
generations.
AF
I
have
more
friends
that
are
65
and
over
than
I
do
at
my
age
at
44.-
and
I
am
a
retiree.
I
retired,
from
the
military
after
20
years,
went
back
to
washington
state
for
a
year.
Then
came
here,
so
I
am
a
transplant,
but
this
is
going
to
be
my
future
home
for
many
years.
So
with
that
that
generational
build
is
there,
as
some
people
have
already
said,
the
sport
is
getting
younger
a
44
year
old
that
puts
15
to
20
hours
a
week,
mostly
in
community
parks
like
I'm
playing
all
the
time.
AF
It
is
getting
younger
for
my
career.
I
chase
terrorists
for
18
years,
and
the
commander
would
always
say:
what's
the
trend
analysis?
What's
this
do
and
it's
hard
for
people
that
are
terrorists
to
know
what
they're
thinking,
but
I
can
tell
you
with
my
analysis
of
the
trend
of
pickleball
is
it
is
getting
younger,
it
is
getting
bigger
and
the
community
needs
more
parks.
So
with
a
new
facility,
it
brings
the
opportunity
to
grow
that
community
locally
it.
AF
It
allows
the
ease
of
barrier
for
people
to
play
that
sport,
especially
for
folks
that
are
a
little
older,
a
little
hesitant
to
go
to
a
new
place
because
they
expect
to
see
people
like
me
that
can
move
and
jump
and
run
and
communicate
and
and
win
little
didn't
know.
I
lose
to
many
people
that
are
much
older
than
me
so,
but
that
ease
of
barrier
is
lessened.
AF
Also
it'll
lessen
the
strain
on
the
current
existing
facilities
with
that
new
facility,
especially
as
you
will
upgrade
or
repair
sites
that
are
in
you
know,
in
bad
shape,
and
so
with
that
it
will
lessen
that
burden
and
then
overall,
I
guess
my
last
comment
is
you
know.
One
of
the
reasons
I
moved
here
was
the
dedication
to
parks
and
public
spaces
that
boise
has
compared
to
other
places.
I
was
looking
at.
It
was
at
the
top
of
the
list
of
things
that
I
told
people
of
boise
does
this.
AF
A
A
A
D
L
That's
correct
and
also
it's
worth,
bearing
in
mind
that
the
old
plan,
the
2016
plan,
only
had
a
total
of
1.8
identified,
of
which
a
third
of
that
was
coming
in
the
form
of
a
donation.
Okay,
so
it
went
from
1.2
million
and
they
will
plan
effectively
to.
D
4.2.
Okay.
Thank
you
second
question.
If
we
approve
this
plan
tonight,
knowing
that
we
haven't
collected
all
of
that.
F
Y
M
M
We've
had
bids
between
16
2016
and
2020,
anywhere
from
3
million
on
the
low
end
to
5.4.
On
the
high
end.
We
know:
what's
happened
between
20
20
and
now
so
I'm
not
sure
what
that
cost
will
be,
and
we
won't
know
until
we
open
up
those
bids.
But
to
answer
your
question,
the
short
answer
is
we'd
move
very
quickly.
D
Okay
and
then
one
final
question,
I
don't
know
who
this
is
for
if
it's
for
eric
or
travis
or
or
rob,
but-
and
I
think
you
know
to
to
dave
jorgensen's
comments,
if
we
made
recommendations,
say,
for
instance,
to
move
the
two
subdivisions
that
are
in
barber
valley,
but
currently
in
the
north
river
planning
area
into
the
southeast
planning
area
after
the
you
know,
make
the
recommendation
to
move
forward
with
this,
but
also
recommend.
Looking
at
that,
what
kind
of
a
process
timeline
would
we
be
talking
about.
L
All
of
that
in
terms
of
the
timing
of
when
you
could
get
that
going
again,
I
don't
know
if
it's
you
know,
we
could
enact
this
in
the
next
day,
start
working
on
that
next
one,
but
we
could
certainly
start
sooner
rather
than
later,
at
least
from
a
staff
perspective,
making
sure
everything's
set
up
so
that
when
we
do
the
next
impact
fee
review,
which,
given
the
cost
environment
in
and
of
itself,
it
shouldn't
wait
another
five
years.
D
H
Mayor
mclean
council,
president
clegg,
I
think
a
year
sounds
reasonable,
but
even
though
that
does
sound
minor,
you
will
need
to
go
back
through
the
defect
process.
You
would
need
to
go
back
to
a
public
hearing
to
consider
the
cip
amendment
and
then
ultimately
back
to
you
for
a
public
hearing.
It
might
not
have
three
categories,
it
might
just
be
one.
So
I
think
if
you
were
to
say
nine
months
would
be
very
optimistic.
W
Doug,
I
I
think
I
was
surprised
tonight
by
how
much
testimony
there
was
for
for
pickleball.
I
didn't
expect
for
that
to
be
what
the
testimony
was
largely
about.
We
know
that
this
is
a
a
plan
that
we've
dedicated
certain
funds.
To
my
experience
in
parks
is
that
sometimes
things
can
happen
faster
when
different
elements
come
into
play:
private
funding
foundations,
a
variety
of
different
things,
my
understanding
of
the
pickleball
court
by
the
west.
Why?
Why
I'm
just
facing
the
name
of
the
park
right
now?
W
Hobble,
creek,
yep
hobble
creek
also
had
some
philanthropy
involved
in
that
process
as
well,
so
just
because
there
was
so
much
testimony
about
it
in
the
master
plan,
there
still
are
the
pickleball
courts
that
are
listed
there,
and
that
is
part
of
the
plan
for
the
eventual
build
out
of
the
park.
Is
that
correct.
W
W
And,
and
that
really
could
come
again
in
a
variety
of
different
ways,
whether
those
are
private
foundations
grants
all
sorts
of
different
things
that
are
out
there
and
there's
probably
even
ways
for
folks
who
are
in
the
audience
to
channel
some
of
their
energy
in
helping
recruit.
H
W
Of
those
donations,
some
of
those
grants,
I
even
know
skate
parks.
Of
course,
the
skateboard
foundation
in
idaho
has
helped
apply
for
grants
for
skatepark
park
association.
So
this
could
be
something
that
people
could
actually
be
involved
in
helping
try
to
recruit
funds
for
yeah.
M
Madame
president
council
member
haley
burden,
we
always
look
at
it
like
we
try
to
count
on
the
money
we
can
count
on,
and
then
we
have
like
another
bucket
where
we
say.
Okay,
what
could
we
raise
money
to
help
augment
what
we
have
and,
for
example,
the
hubble
creek
pickleball
courts?
We
did
have
a
great
fundraising
effort
by
our
pickleball
local
pickleball
club.
M
I
believe
there
was
at
least
fifty
thousand
dollars
plus
that
had
been
raised
towards
the
construction
of
those
courts
and
that
may
not
sound
like
a
lot
when
it
was
close
to
a
million
dollar
project,
but
just
the
support
out
there
and
promoting
that
those
courts
are
trying
to
be
we're
trying
to
raise
money
for
those
courts.
We
also
have
the
local
southeast,
idaho,
adult
soccer
league.
That
has
also
earmarked
some
funds
to
help
with
the
green
up
to
build
the
three
soccer
fields
that
will
also
be
at
this
location.
M
We've
set
that
kind
of
aside
in
looking
at
what
we
need,
what
we're
going
to
get
with
the
impact
fees,
and
then
we
will
have
those
conversations
with
stakeholders
and
and
other
folks
to
see
what
other
monies
we
could
raise
to
augment
that
4.2
million
and
again.
I
think
our
plan
would
be
if,
if
the
impact
fee
update
is
approved
tonight,
that
we
would
start
that
document
process
on
getting
the
bids
put
together,
get
it
out
on
the
street
and
see
what
the
cost
to
get
all
the
amenities
done.
With
the
green
up.
M
G
Thank
you,
doug
don't
go
too
far.
G
We've
heard
from
pickleball
folks
from
all
over
the
city,
and
I'm
wondering
I
haven't
seen
in
the
master
plan
for
parks.
Do
we
have
pickleball
facilities
planned
at
other
parks
in
boise?
At
this
time.
M
Most
of
our
focus
right
now
has
been
looking
at
courts
that
are
underutilized
for
tennis
and
reconverting
those
into
pickleball
courts,
particularly
courts
that
are
in
pretty
good
shape
right
now,
but
aren't
being
utilized
for
as
much
for
tennis
manitou
park
is
a
perfect
example
where
we
just
converted
those
courts
into
pickleball.
M
So
we'll
continue
to
look
at
that.
I
think
it
was
mentioned
earlier
that
willow
lane
is
a
little
bit
in
disrepair.
We're
well
aware
of
that.
We
did
resurface
that
a
year
and
a
half
ago,
and
it
just
didn't,
go
very
far.
So
the
plan
is
how
do
we
rebuild
those
courts
and
maybe
even
relocate
them
in
the
park
away
from
neighbors?
So
we're
we're
doing
a
lot
of
internal
discussion
on
how
we
continue
to
grow.
The
sport
we're
very
interested
in
indoor
possible
indoor
facility
at
some
point
right
now.
M
We
we
use
the
fort
boise
community
center
gymnasium
as
indoor
courts
during
the
winter
time,
and
so
we're
looking
we're
trying.
There's
a
lot
of
priorities
out
there
and
we
recognize
this
is-
is
the
fastest
growing
sport
in
the
us?
It
absolutely
is,
and
we
need
to
do
our
part
to
try
to
accommodate
as
much
of
it
as
we
can.
N
Mayor,
yes,
don't
go
anywhere
come
back
up
all
right.
I
want
to
check
my
understanding
here.
It
sounds
like
there
were
a
couple
things
that
the
barber
valley
association
wanted
and
the
code
rewrites
that
some
of
those
things
would
take
a
while.
But
what
I
hear
you
saying
doug
is
that
we
can
look
at
how
much
how
much
we
can
get
out
of
the
4.3
million
and
then
make
a
plan
to
see
what
it
would
take
to
get
everything
that
folks
want.
Is
that
what
I'm
hearing.
M
Madam
president,
council
member
will
it's
what
what
I
would
propose
is
that
we
would,
depending
on
how
the
hearing
ends
tonight,
we
would
propose
to
go
ahead
and
start
preparing
bid
documents
on
the
entire
build
out
of
the
park,
and
then
we
would
see
how
far
that
4.2
million
dollars
would
go.
M
M
We
could
get
the
entire
green
up
done
in
that
amount
of
money
and
probably
a
couple
of
amenities
as
well
like
the
shelter
and
possibly
even
a
restroom,
to
build
the
the
pickleball
corks
and
to
get
the
play
feature
added
as
well
will
would
probably
be
a
stretch.
This
isn't
a
park
that
has
a
ton
of
amenities
in
it.
It
does
have
a
very
cool
play
feature
with
a
water
feature
included
in
it.
It
has
the
12
pickleball
courts.
M
It
has
three
or
four
bocce
courts,
and
then
it
has
a
fairly
significant
parking
area.
M
This
is
a
community
park,
but
because
we're
cognizant
of
what's
happening
at
barber
park,
which
is
our
neighbor
on
eckhart
on
eckert
road,
the
parking
is
a
little
bit
larger
than
what
we
would
normally
put
in
a
I
believe.
It's
132
spaces
a
little
larger
than
what
we
would
put
in
a
normal
community
park.
So
the
goal
would
be
to
get
all
the
green
up.
M
Madam
president,
council
member
will
it's
that
is
correct
right
now,
with
the
approval
of
the
plan,
the
update
today
would
allocate
4.2
million
in
impact
fees
to
build
the
park.
N
Y
G
Doug
hi,
it
was
brought
up
by
mr
stark
early
in
testimony
that
the
developer
had
offered
to
build
at
least
some
of
the
park
and
get
cid
reimbursement
for
that.
As
a
member
of
the
cid
board
for
many
years,
I
have
never
been
aware
of
that.
Is
that
something
that
you've
been
aware
of.
M
Madam
president,
council
member
woodings,
there
have
been
discussions.
Actually
there
was
a
commitment,
and
I
think
mr
black
referred
to
it
earlier
in
his
presentation.
There
was
a
commitment
of
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
at
one
point
in
time,
and
that
was
in
writing.
That
was
when
we
were
looking
at
the
at
the
full
build
out
of
the
park
or
the
full
build
out
of
the
park
of
less
than
two
million.
M
M
But
that
was
never
a
formalized
discussion
that
we
would
have
brought
forward
to
you,
and
so
I'm
not
aware
that
there
was
anything
formally
presented
to
anyone
to
say
that
that
there
would
be
additional
funding
beyond
that
600
000
and
when
the
park
wasn't
built
at
that
point
in
time,
which
I
believe
would
have
been
in
2020
that
600
000
went
back
to
the
family.
It
never
was
actually
presented
to
the
city.
G
Okay,
thank
you,
but
that
could
be
a
source
of
a
source
of
funding
for
this
park,
at
least
in
part,
from
your
understanding,
and
maybe
travis
knows
a
little
bit
more
too.
M
J
Madam
mayor,
yes,
yes
thanks
doug!
So
typically
I
mean
my
colleagues
brought
up
a
couple
of
parks,
one
that
took
what
1995
that's
what
25
years
to
build
the
one
that
council
president
clegg
brought
up
still
hasn't
been
greened
up,
and
that
was
my
neighborhood,
the
original
south
boise
a
little
triangle
that
you're
talking
about
president
clegg.
So
I'm
wondering
how
do
we
prioritize,
which
parks
we're
going
to
focus
our
efforts
on
first.
M
Madam
president,
councilmember
sanchez,
it's
not
rocket
science,
it.
Basically,
we
do
look
at
at
the
demographics
of
different
neighborhoods.
We
look
at
growth
of
neighborhoods,
but
we
do
put
a
lot
of
emphasis
on
the
tenure.
How
long
have
we
had
that
park
in
our
inventory?
How
long
has
that
neighborhood
waited
for
that
park
to
become
a
reality,
and
so
that's
really
the
basis
that
we
use,
but
I
would
say
the
primary
focus
is:
how
long
have
we
held
that
park
in
in
our
inventory
and
haven't
done
anything
with
it?.
J
Quick
follow-up,
so
this
park,
if
it
gets
all
this
support
the
pickleball
community,
finding
different
funding
sources,
would
it
bump
it
ahead
of
another
park
in
the
region
that
would
that's
been
waiting.
M
Correct,
madam
president,
councilmember
sanchez
this
has
been
in
the
works
since
2006,
so
it's
it's
not
a
new
concept
that
alta
harris
park
was
going
to
be
built
in
this
area,
and
it's
been
talked
about
since
that
point
in
time.
So
it
does
not
take
any
precedent
over
any
other
park
out
there
bowler
the
money
that
was
moved.
It
was
moved,
purposely
and
approved
by
this
board
by
this
council.
Because
of
the
fact
that
at
that
point
in
time
we
couldn't
build
alta
harris.
We
didn't
have
the
funding
to
complete
the
build
out.
D
Move
it
a
little
closer
there
we
go,
I'm
I'm
prepared
to
make
a
motion.
Hopefully
I
think,
there's
three
motions
in
order
and
the
first
one
would
be
to
I
move
to
adopt
the
amendment
to
the
development
impact
fee
code.
D
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
I'm
going
to
talk
about
all
of
the
issues
and
then
make
the
other
motions.
If
that's
okay,
I
really
appreciate
the
conversation
tonight.
I
appreciate
that
alta
harris
park
has
been
waiting
for
a
while,
as
have
many
parks
in
the
city.
When
I
first
got
elected,
there
were
20
park
sites
that
had
waited
more
than
20
years
for
development
and
bowler
was
the
last
one
that
finally
got
developed
and
moved
off
of
that
list.
D
and
so
certainly
understand
that
you
know
everybody
wants
their
parks
yesterday.
We
all
enjoy
them.
They're.
All
really.
Wonderful,
also
understand
that,
frankly,
most
of
the
other
cities
in
this
region
have
one
impact
fee
area
and
they
collect
money
over
here
and
spend
it
over
here
and
eight
years
ago.
D
Now
I
think
maybe
maybe
10
this
city
and
this
council
moved
to
districts
so
that
the
money
collected
in
a
district
got
spent
in
that
district
and,
as
far
as
I
understand,
we're
the
only
city
in
the
valley
to
do
that,
your
district
is
a
big
one.
I
get
that
a
lot
of
money's
been
collected
over
the
years
and
spent
all
over
that
district
and-
and
in
fact
it
is
now
your
turn,
which
is
why
there's
4.2
million
dollars
in
this
particular
plan
down
from
4.8.
D
I
should
mention,
because
you
are
already
the
highest
impact
fee
area
and
at
4.8
it
puts
you
really
in
a
in
a
range
that
we
felt
was
uncomfortable
uncomfortably
high
compared
to
everybody
else.
D
I
believe
that
this
plan
does
move
forward
with
the
priorities
of
this
city
the
priorities
of
the
10-minute
park.
I'm,
I
guess
a
little
disappointed
that
that
this
became
an
either
or
if
we
don't
get
a,
we
want
ours
and
they
don't
get
theirs.
I
think
that,
hopefully,
as
a
city,
we
can
support
that
every
neighborhood
has
their
needs,
they're
all
different,
they're,
all
unique.
D
What
may
not
look
like
a
need
to
you
may
look
like
a
big
need
to
them
and
vice
versa,
and
so
I'm
comfortable
that
this
plan
actually
does
support,
needs
not
just
in
your
region
but
all
over
the
city
that
that
meet
that
and
then
finally,
I'd
say
that
I
really
appreciate
the
pickleball
discussion.
D
It
is
a
growing
sport.
It's
a
wonderful
sport.
It's
not
growth,
related
necessarily
and
impact
fees.
Are
growth
related.
D
So
yes,
as
we
grow,
if
pickleball
is
a
thing
we're
going
to
need
more,
but
it's
really
a
new
service
extension
from
what
we've
done
previously,
and
so
I
was
glad
to
hear
our
park's
director
say
that
they're
looking
at
ways
to
increase
the
reach
and
the
breadth
of
where
we
have
pickleball
available,
but
it
isn't
directly
related
to
impact
fees,
except
that
this
particular
park
that
you
all
care
about
is
is
slated
to
have
pickleball
in
and
you'd
like
to
get
them
built.
D
So
hopefully
we
will
figure
out
a
way
to
expand
our
pickleball
present,
but
I'm
not
sure
that
it's
eligible
for
impact
fees
other
than
as
we
grow.
That
presence.
Then
we
can
continue.
Then
we
can
collect
impact
fees
to
keep
that
service
level
in
the
new
growth.
But
but
regardless
of
that,
I
appreciate
the
the
comment
and.
F
G
Anyway,
mayor,
yes,
I
agree
with
everything
that
the
council
president
just
said,
and
I
also
want
to
add
that
I
think
that
so
many
parks
over
the
past
five
years
really
really
died
because
of
increases
in
cost
of
construction.
G
So
last
time
we
went
through
this
process
when
I
wasn't
here,
but
last
time
the
impact
fees
were
updated,
that
wasn't
the
cost
of
construction,
so
the
impact
fees
were
just
insufficient
for
the
future
cost
of
construction.
So
I'm
hoping
here
that
we
and
I
had
complete
sticker
shock
in
november
and
travis
really
spent
some
time
with
me.
You
know
walking
through
here
are
the
choices
that
we
have
to
make.
G
G
City
funds-
you
know
impact
fees,
so
I'm
hoping
that
this
can
be
a
really
great
example
of
that,
as
well
as
we
get
it
built
out.
I'm-
and
I
really
appreciate
everyone
mobilizing
around
this
and
coming
down
and
sharing
your
thoughts
with
us
tonight.
O
Vladimir,
yes,
with
respect
to
part
of
the
council,
pro
temps
comments,
I
had
sticker
shock
too.
In
a
way,
once
I
sat
down,
got
some
schooling
frankly
from
people
who
really
know
what
they're
doing
and
understood
that
this
is
pretty
much
the
cost
of
what
we
need
to
capture
to
have
growth
pay
for
itself.
O
I
got
reverse
sticker
shock
in
the
sense
that
you
could
look
at
our
current
fees
and
see
how
quickly
we
were
falling
behind
and
so
there's
there
was
some
testimony
tonight
that
the
most
urgent
thing
to
do
is
get
this
adopted,
and
I
agree
with
that.
There
was
also
a
comment
that
there
may
be
an
opportunity
to
continue
to
look
at
and
make
adjustments
and
without
any
kind
of
direction.
I
think
that's
something
that
we
should
always
be
doing,
but
primarily
for
that.
O
J
Madame
something
I
just
would
like
to
point
out,
and
I
think
it's
something
we
just
we
don't
see
anymore
after
two
years-
is
we're
all
still
wearing
masks,
because
kovit
is
still
with
us.
J
I
know
we're
so
ready
to
be
over
it,
but
but
these
costs
are
they're
a
way
to
highlight
the
fact
that
this
has
an
effect
not
just
on
inconveniencing
some
of
us,
but
that
the
ripple
effects
include
all
of
us,
some
of
us
more
than
others.
I
think
about
the
folks
who
live
in
parts
of
boise
who,
who
don't
have
anything
close
to
what
the
the
kind
folks
who
showed
up
tonight
to
testify
in
support
of
their
chosen
hobby,
which
I
think
is
great.
It's
wonderful.
J
But
those
are
things
that
we
have
to
think
about
as
well
is
the
pressing
needs
of
our
community
and
some
folks
have
have
more
than
others.
I
I
support
this
because
we
can't
we
can't
lie
to
ourselves
about
what
it
costs
to
to
live
in
boise
these
days
and
to
have
the
things
that
we
want
and
to
keep
the
quality
of
life
that
we
want.
J
But
I
very
heartened
to
hear
that
there's
more
than
one
way
to
meet
the
goal
it
sounds
like
your
park
is
in
sight,
perhaps
not
as
quickly
as
you
would
have
lied,
but
please
keep
in
mind.
There
are
folks
in
our
community
who
are
going
to
be
waiting
quite
a
bit
longer.
So
I
am
in
full
support
of
the
motion.
N
I'm
going
to
support
the
motion,
I
don't
like
raising
fees.
I
I
don't
think
it's
a
thing
that
anyone
likes
frankly
is
to
charge
more,
and
I
do
think
we
need
to
be
realistic
that
this
is
going
to
raise
housing
prices,
and
I
know
that
this
council
is
very
concerned
about
housing
and-
and
we've
even
talked
about
some
of
that
earlier
today
in
the
meeting.
So
I
think
we
need
to
be
honest
about
that
that
this
is
going
to
raise
prices.
N
However,
I
think
the
public
safety
aspects
of
this
are
just
as
important,
and
I
think
you
know
what
I
heard
over
and
over
again
from
voters
is
the
need
to
ensure
that
police
fire
public
safety
is
increasing
at
the
same
level
as
what,
as
our
population
and
the
concern
that
boise
maintain
it's
clean,
clean
living.
N
So
I'm
gonna
support
the
motion,
knowing
that
I
I
don't
like
this,
I
have
I
have
the
biggest
sticker
shot
because
I
wasn't
here
when
you
all
talked
about
this,
but
I
think
we
have
to
do
it
to
ensure
that
we
maintain
all
the
reasons
that
many
of
the
folks
who
testify
today
here
move
to
our
great
our
great
city.
A
Well,
I
won't
be
voting,
but
I
just
want
to
say
a
couple
things.
First
off
to
everybody
that
came
tonight.
Thank
you.
It
was
really
wonderful
to
see
so
many
of
you
face
to
face
as
well.
I
really
really
appreciate
it
as
well
as
your
passion
for
pickleball
and
then
of
course,
parks
in
your
neighborhoods.
B
A
A
But
when
we
can
accomplish
this
park,
these
12
also
will
go
into
that
formula
that
we
can
use
in
the
future
to
build
more
with
impact
fees.
So
I
wanted
just
to
say
that
I
thought
that
the
point
today
about
planning
areas
was
a
really
good
one,
and
I
remember
I
was
a
brand
new
councilman.
A
A
So
I
was
surprised
that
we
were
saying
it
was,
but
then
knowingly
not
taking
enough
funds
to
make
the
investments
we
needed
to
make
to
ensure
that
each
of
us
that
was
living
here
at
that
moment
would
still
have
the
same
amount
of
services
10
years
later,
as
our
city
grew,
and
so
we
changed
that
and
when
we
reviewed
that
whenever
that
was-
and
I
also
remember
the
discussion
about
the
planning
areas
I
didn't
realize
even
now-
that
we
were
the
only
city
that
looked
at
districts.
A
But
I
remember
I
have
this
vague
memory
of
staff
presenting
the
districts
but
also
wondering-
and
maybe
even
asking
a
question
about
why
the
hills
were
won
when
they
were
above
neighborhoods.
And
so
I
think
it
is
something
as
we
develop
and
then
we're
looking
at
it
that
we
ought
to
look
at,
but
not
piecemeal.
Amendment
because
you
have
the
same
impact
on
the
hills
in
the
northwest
down
to
northwest
neighborhoods
you've
got
the
same
impact
in
the
middle
down
to
the
middle
neighborhoods,
as
you
would
the
southeastern
barber
valley
down
to
there.
A
So
we
got,
I
mean
we
ought
to
look
at
that,
and
rather
than
spending,
I
would
say
a
year
year
and
a
half
for
one
part
of
it.
I
think
it
it
behooves
the
community
to
really
look
at
that
comprehensively
from
a
planning
district
area
and
then
finally,
I
want
to
thank
all
of
you
for
bringing
up
10
minute
walk
to
the
park,
because
this
was
a
new
policy
that
this
council
approved
last
year
and
as
we
grow
and
throughout
covid
we
saw
how
important
access
to
open
spaces
no
matter
what
they
looked
like.
A
A
But
what
it
did
tell
us
and
what
we
learned
from
it
was
that
as
we
grow
and
we
re-envision
what
neighborhoods
look
like
and
how
we
come
together.
Somebody
mentioned
how
important
parks
are
because
it's
a
gathering
place.
We
also
have
to
re-envision
what
we
think
about
when
it
comes
to
parks,
and
so
when
we
say
as
a
city
that
we
have
a
goal
of
10
minutes
walk
to
a
park,
it
doesn't
just
happen.
A
It
is
a
vision
that
will
take
years
to
accomplish,
but
we
will
consider
all
of
the
pathways
plans
that
we
that
we
passed.
What
was
it
two
three
weeks
ago
as
a
10-minute
walk
to
a
stretch
of
open
space
micro
parks,
little
pocket
parks,
my
kids
called
it
a
monkey
park
near
us.
It
was
you
know
where
a
house
used
to
be,
and
there
were
a
couple
little
things
on
it
that
they
could
run
around.
A
That
would
count
what
we
want
is
somebody
talked
about
their
kids
not
being
able
to
walk
into
a
park,
and
I
understand
they
can't
walk
to
a
playground
right
now
and
our
vision
is
that
kids
in
all
these
neighborhoods,
if
we
make
the
right
land
use
decisions
and
we
purchase
the
right
pieces
of
property
and
we're
successful
with
our
pathways
vision.
And
we
continue
to
build
out
the
traditional
version
of
parks
that
all
of
those
things
connected
will
make
it
possible
for
residents
to
be
a
10-minute
walk
to
a
park.
A
And
but
I
love
that
folks
are
thinking
about
it.
That
way
now,
and
it
shows
us
that
it
really
is
tangible
and
it
will
continue
to
guide
our
team
as
well.
As
I'm
sure
this
council
is,
as
we
make
decisions
and
to
make
it
possible
to
achieve
that
vision
as
we
move
forward
and
to
not
do
things
that
prevent
us
or
make
it
harder
to
achieve
that
vision.
A
Will
you
please
let
the
committee
know
that
I
said
thank
you
and
just
just
thank
you
all
very
much
and
know
that
the
conversation
tonight
will
have
made
a
difference
as
we
think
about
when
we
go
out
to
bid
how
we
close
that
gap,
whether
it
be
with
the
cid
or
cid
members
sitting
up
here
that
sit
on
that
board
joint
partnerships
with
philanthropy
et
cetera.
We
want
to
close
that
gap
and
we're
going
to
be
working
to
make
that
possible.

Adam
mayor
just
note
that
the
other
foothills
neighborhoods,
as
you
noted,
are
also
probably
ones
that
should
be
reviewed,
but
I
think
that's
probably
a
longer
process
that
will
be
part
of
the
next
impactful
amendment.
