From YouTube: City Council Regular Evening Meeting - 3/30/21
Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
C
C
It
was
bloomberg,
cities
or
the
atlantic
talking
about
how
zoom
is
great
but
not
having
people
come
like
it
needs
to
be
a
true
hybrid
for
communities
so
that
you
have
a
room
of
people
in
community
that
are
talking
about
issues
rather
than
all
separated,
which
I
found
interesting
because
we've
gotten
to
this
point,
where
we're
all
so
used
to
being
just
calling
in
from
remote,
and
we
have
this
empty
room,
and
so
it's
nice
to
see
two
of
you.
I
hope
that
over
time,
we'll
see
more.
C
Thank
you
all
right.
We
have
four
council
members
on
zoom
and
the
other
two
here,
so
we'll
go
ahead
and
start
the
meeting
with
a
moment
of
silence,
followed
by
the
pledge
of
allegiance.
C
D
C
F
E
C
Next,
we
have
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.

amending
zoning
classifications
of
the
city
of
boise
city
to
change
the
classification
of
real
property,
particularly
described
in
section
1
of
this
ordinance
from
general
commercial
c-2-d
to
residential
office,
with
design
review
and
development
agreement.
C
Thank
you.
We
have
nothing
on
third
reading,
no
unfinished
business.
So
now
we'll
move
into
public
hearings
and
as
we
do
these
and
this
evening,
this
first
one
will
be
a
little
simpler.
I'm
all
have
our
staff
will
present.
Then
the
applicant
will
present
I'll
check
in
to
see
if
there's
a
member
of
the
neighborhood
association
of
record,
that's
on
zoom
to
then
present
and
then
from
there
I'll
go
through
the
names
first
of
people.
C
Unless
the
two
of
you
want
to
testify
and
then
leave,
we
could
have
the
youtube
talk,
nope,
you're,
gonna
say
the
people
that
have
signed
up
in
advance
and
then
we'll
start.
The
clerk
will
start
calling
on
people
as
you
raise
your
little
zoom
hand
for
the
items.
If
I
didn't
call
your
name
so
with
that
cody,
we
first
have
car
20-23.
H
This
item
include,
as
you
noted,
two
two
applications.
The
first
is
a
rezone
of
0.67
acres,
located
at
1717,
south
federal
way
from
r2
or
medium
density,
residential.
H
Both
projects,
both
both
applications,
were
heard
by
the
planning
commission
in
february,
along
with
the
planned
unit
development
that
plan
unit
development,
did
allow
the
reduction
in
lot
sizes
and
internal
setbacks.
The
commission,
as
noted
in
the
record,
did
approve
the
plan
unit
development
and
recommended
approval
of
the
rezone
and
subdivision
the
decision
on
that
plan.
Development
was
not
appealed,
so
it
is
only
the
rezone
and
subdivision
before
you
this
evening.
H
The
proposed
r3
or
multi-family
residential
zone
is
compatible
with
surrounding
zoning
and
development.
As
you
see
in
the
map,
we
have
pedestrian
commercial
zoning
adjacent
to
the
south
and
then
c2
or
general
commercial
zoning
to
the
north,
along
with
commercial
uses.
Both
of
those
zones
allow
residential
development
up
to
43
and
a
half
units
per
acre.
That's
the
same
density
allowed
in
the
proposed
zone
as
you
can,
as
you
can
see,
we
also
have
r3
or
that
multi-family
residential
zone
further
south
along
federal
way.
H
Given
this
and
the
fact
that
we
recently
approved
r3
zoning
for
part
of
the
project,
it
does
make
a
lot
of
sense
in
this.
In
this
instance,
as
detailed
in
the
packet
and
as
you'll
recall
from
last
time.
The
rezone
is
further
supported
by
the
fact
that
we
have
transit
about
a
tenth
of
a
mile
from
the
site.
There's
also
a
mix
of
commercial
and
office
uses
within
walking
distance
of
the
project.
H
H
Moving
on
to
the
subdivision
itself,
again,
it
includes
36
buildable
lots
on
the
1.6
acre
site.
Each
lot
will
be
occupied
by
an
attached
town
home.
The
layout
is
somewhat
unique
in
that
the
interior
homes
are
oriented
to
a
common
space.
As
you
can
see,
the
project
actually
also
presents
itself
nicely
to
federal
way
those
units
along
federal
way
front.
The
street
will
include
each
include
separate
entrance.
H
Vehicular
access
has
been
accommodated
through
a
single
service
drive
from
federal
way.
That
drive
is
located
on
the
southern
property
line
and
is
shared
with
adjoining
parcels
and
that's
insured
through
a
condition
of
approval.
H
A
detached
sidewalk
already
exists
along
federal
way.
That
planter
is
actually
not
wide
enough
to
accommodate
trees,
so
so
the
new
trees
will
be
provided
behind
the
sidewalk
and
then
additional
trees
will
be
provided
throughout
the
site
to
mitigate
the
few
that
are
being
removed
in
terms
of
connectivity
as
you'll
recall
from
last
time,
there's
really
no
opportunity
for
street
connections
or
public
street
connections
in
this
area.
However,
we
continue
to
believe
there
is
merit
to
a
pedestrian
connection
to
the
west.
H
Unfortunately,
there
is
a
private
easement,
as
you
recall,
on
that
adjoining
property
that
precludes
that
connection.
At
this
time,
still
a
condition
of
approval
does
require
an
easement
on
this
project.
To
facilitate
that
connection,
should
things
change
in
the
future
again,
the
design
was
approved
as
a
plan
unit
development
by
the
commission
previously.
H
C
I
Hi,
madam
mayor
members
of
the
city
council,
ben
semple,
1014,
south
la
point,
street
suite
3
boise,
idaho,
83706
yeah.
I
want
to
thank
cody
for
his
presentation.
He
really
wrapped
up
what
our
application
you
know
is
proposing.
I
As
he
stated,
this
is
kind
of
a
an
extension
or
expansion
of
the
previous
project
that
was
approved
with
the
purchase
of
that
third
parcel.
We
saw
the
opportunity
to
get
a
little
bit
more
density,
we're
still
well
below
the
the
density
of
units
per
acre
on
the
prop
or
on
the
project,
even
at
r3
we're
at
about
22
and
a
half
units
per
acre,
and
it
was
revised
to
incorporate
one
point
of
access.
I
Currently,
half
of
it's
paved
and
half
of
its
gravel
so
we'll
be
taking
care
of
the
paving
on
the
other
half
of
that,
so
that
both
the
properties
to
the
south
have
a
nice
clean,
paved
access
to
their
properties,
not
only
during
construction
but
then,
obviously,
after
construction,
the
concept
is
still
the
same:
single-family
townhomes
and
we
are
open
to
the
pedestrian,
easement
and
connectivity
to
the
west.
I
While
it's
not
available
this
time,
we
will
be
putting
that
you
know
we'll
be
complying
with
that
condition
of
approval
to
make
sure
that
that
is
included.
So
if
that
does
ever
occur
in
the
future,
that
there
will
be
a
pedestrian
connectivity
option
there
and
we're
in
agreement
with
all
the
other
conditions
of
approval
in
the
staff
report
and
really
look
forward
to
this
project
getting
built.
And
with
that
I
would
stand
for
questions.
D
Yes,
go
ahead,
hello,
ben.
I
know
that
there
are
a
fair
number
of
large
trees
on
this
site,
but
the
layout
really
doesn't
allow
the
retention
of
of
the
majority
of
them.
Are
there
any
that
are
going
to
be
saved.
I
Madam
mayor
council,
member
clegg,
yeah,
the
some
of
them
interior
to
the
site
either
have
been
removed.
The
seller
of
the
third
parcel
part
of
their
condition
of
the
sale
to
the
developer
was
that
they
got
the
harvest
trees
for
firewood
for
their
cabin
in
idaho
city,
so
they've
taken
some
of
those
down
already
we're
trying
to
maintain
or
we
we
do
have
the
maintaining
of
a
lot
of
them
along
the
property
periphery,
because
there's
really
just
some
sidewalk
that
goes
next
to
them.
I
So
there's
some
large
evergreens
along
the
north
and
west
boundaries
that
will
remain
the
stuff
interior.
You
know
with
the
grading
because
there's
quite
an
elevation
change
from
federal
way
to
the
property
they
do
have
to
come
out
with
the
grading
operations,
but
I
think
we're
over
our
mitigation,
if
I
remember
correctly
from
our
mitigation
plan,
we're
we're
installing
a
large
amount
of
trees
on
this,
particularly
in
the
center
sort
of
courtyard
area
with
the
project.
I
So
I'm
definitely
exceeding
the
the
mitigation
that's
required
for
the
site
and
we
will
be
there's
one
tree.
I
do
want
to
mention.
There's
a
red
oak
that
has
to
come
down
and
there
was
a
presentation
that
was
given
at
design
review
not
too
long
ago
at
a
work
session,
and
I
want
to
work
with
the
the
boise.
I
think
it's
the
treasure
valley,
canopy
network.
I
I
don't
think
I'm
getting
that
exactly
correct,
but
there's
a
woodworkers
kind
of
guild.
I
guess
here
in
town
that
we
want
to
work
with
to
salvage
some
of
that
wood
and
use
it
as
well
as
potentially
you
know,
mill
some
of
it
and
use
it
with
the
project,
but
yeah
we're
aware
of
those
coming
down,
and
we
are
addressing
that
with
mitigation
efforts
as
well
as
other
efforts
too.
D
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
that
I
was
going
to
ask
if
you
knew
about
the
urban
wood
group
and
maybe
being
able
to
salvage
some
of
that
so
good
to
know.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
C
C
Oh
great?
Okay,
so
if
nobody
in
the
room
is
here
to
testify
the
honest,
has
anybody
raised
their
hand
on
zoom
to
testify?
We
didn't
expect
so,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
no,
madam
mayor,
all
right
before
I
close
the
hearing
any
further
follow
up
nope
all
right,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
close
the
public
hearing
and
now
the
matter
is
before
you
adam.
E
C
E
Just
real
quick
ben,
I
remember
the
the
first
time
that
this
came
up
for
the
other
piece
of
property
and
we
had
some
conversations
about
that
connection
piece
to
the
west
and
we've
had
quite
a
few
different
things
that
you've
brought
to
the
table
now,
and
I've
always
been
really
impressed
with
how
well
you've
really
thought
about
that
connection
aspect
comprehensively
and,
and
also
I'm
kind
of
taking
the
lead
with
looking
at
reusing
some
of
that
wood.
E
I
actually
found
out
about
that
last
week
on
treasure
valley,
canopy,
network's
instagram
page
and
saw
some
of
the
projects
that
they
were
doing
and
being
able
to
incorporate
that
into
the
existing
to
the
development.
There
I
think
is,
is
really
unique.
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you
for
putting
together
another
good
proposal
for
us.
F
G
G
F
J
C
I've
got
a
list
of
some
people
that
sign
up
in
advance.
I
know
that
I
think
you're
here
for
this.
You
sign
up
on
paper
and
then
as
more
raise
their
hands,
we'll
call
on
you
when
we
get
to
the
public
hearing
part
of
it,
but
with
that
celine,
why
don't
you
start
us
off
and
then,
of
course,
let's
see
we've
got
if
the
applicant
will
just
be
ready
to
go
and
we'll
move
from
celine
to
the
applicant
to
southeast
neighborhood
association,
eric
berg
and
then
to
the
pueblo
adam
mayor.
D
Yes,
before
celine
starts,
if
I
could
I'd
like
to
just
disclose
on
the
record
that
for
the
hearing
regarding
the
project
at
boise
avenue
in
protest
car
20-00225,
that
myself
and
the
mayor
both
attended
a
meeting
on
november
18th
at
2020
at
city
hall,
to
discuss
the
september
29
2020
denial
of
the
rezone
application
and
findings
adopted
on
october
13th
of
2020..
D
The
meeting
was
also
attended
by
deb
nelson
who's
counsel
for
the
applicant
applicants,
representatives
mitch,
cordy
and
brandy
style,
brandt,
stiles
and
on
behalf
of
the
city
saline
accord.
Cody
riddle
rob
lockwood
and,
as
I
said
myself
and
mayor
mclean,
a
very
short
meeting
lasted
approximately
20
minutes,
20
minutes
and
it
occurred
after
the
denial
of
the
rezone
and
the
time
to
appeal
the
denial
had
passed.
D
There
was
no
new
application
on
the
table
at
the
time
and
the
discussion
was
simply
around
the
denial
of
the
project
and
the
reasons
for
that
decision.
I
made
a
few
brief
comments.
Mayor,
mclean,
listened
and
subsequent
to
that
the
applicant
did
file
a
reapplication.
K
Yeah
the
next
item
tonight
is
a
request
for
a
rezone
with
a
development
agreement
at
1909
and
2001
west
boise
avenue.
The
site
is
on
the
edge
of
downtown
and
southeast
planning
areas
and
adjacent
to
the
boise
state
campus
at
the
intersection
of
boise
avenue,
protest,
road
and
beacon
street.
K
This
request
is
substantially
different,
a
different
project
for
you
to
review
this
evening,
so
the
project
is
a
project
site
is
designated
mixed
use
in
the
comprehensive
plan
and
is
located
in
the
heart
of
an
activity
center.
This
designation
allows
for
almost
every
zoning
district
so
as
to
encourage
more
active
uses.
K
K
K
K
The
project
also
includes
274
underground
parking
spaces,
550
bicycle
parking
spaces,
along
with
a
scooter
e-bike
hub
and
a
car
share
program
council
mentioned
last
time
that
pedestrian
and
bicycle
safety
was
of
the
utmost
importance.
The
applicant
has
now
proposed
a
pedestrian
crossing
to
the
north
at
joyce
street,
which,
as
of
this
afternoon,
achd
has
it
has
now
approved,
and
they
also
proposed
improving
the
bike
lane
on
the
north
side
of
boise
avenue.
But
again,
as
of
this
afternoon,
achd
has
not
approved
that
request.
K
Discussions
were
held
around
tree
mitigation
last
time,
and
you
know
many
of
the
trees
on
site
are
in
poor
health,
while
others
are
actually
in
excellent
condition
and
certainly
add
to
that
tree
urban
tree
canopy
of
the
neighborhood
typically
medication.
Medication
excuse
me.
Mitigation
is
required
only
for
right-of-way
trees,
but
the
applicant
is
committing
to
more
than
that
for
a
total
of
166
caliper
inches.
K
The
landscape
plan
shows
about
100
caliber
inches
on
site,
so
the
parks
department
has
suggested
the
remaining
mitigation
occur
off-site
within
two
miles
in
which
the
applicant
has
agreed
to
those
sites.
Two
miles
off
or
two
miles
around
the
site
can
be
at
terry
day
park.
Manito
park
or
ivy
wild
park
is,
what's
been
at
least
identified
by
parks
at
the
moment.
K
Lastly,
the
applicant
has
proposed
two
packages
related
to
housing,
which
highlight
the
applicant's
commitment
to,
and
commitment
and
awareness
of,
the
impact
to
current
residents,
while
also
including
a
mix
of
housing
costs
within
the
development.
So
the
first
package
is
a
tenant
assistance
package.
The
minimum
six
months
advance
notice,
working
with
a
management
company
in
town
to
find
a
new
home
funds
to
cover
the
increase
in
rents
to
the
tenants
that
may
incur
over
the
first
two
years
of
moving
out
and
an
affordable
option
to
return
after
the
project
is
built.
K
And
when
I
say
right
now,
I
say
it
because
beca
the
applicant
has
committed
to
applying
for
the
city's
housing
initiative
program.
So
that
may
change
the
number
of
units,
the
term
and
the
rate
of
which
the
housing
is
provided
for.
K
D
D
I'll
all
ask
these
now
are
probably
questions
for
the
developer
with
the
tree
mitigation,
the
off-site
tree
mitigation.
Will
the
parks
department
work
with
the
applicant
to
locate
those
sites?
Will
they
be
public
sites
on
public
property,
or
would
private
sites
be
eligible
if
we
could
identify
such
especially
sites?
Maybe
that
would
meet
some
of
our
equity
goals.
K
Madam
mayor
council,
member
clegg,
as
of
now
we're,
the
parks
department
has
only
identified
public
sites,
but
I'm
sure
if
there
was
some
public
private
partnership
that
the
parks,
department
or
parks
team
is
aware
of,
we
could
certainly
work
through
that
right
now,
we're
just
having
the
applicant
work
with
the
parks
department
just
because
those
sites
haven't
been
finalized
at
this
time.
D
K
C
L
C
L
L
C
C
L
Well,
we'll
jump
right
in
then
the
the
city
of
boise,
as
you
know,
needs
housing
of
all
types.
I
we
know
that
you're
working
on
this
throughout
the
city,
just
a
few
summary
data
points
relevant
to
this
application.
L
L
Fewer
than
5
500
on
and
off
campus
beds
are
available
to
serve
nearly
13
000
undergraduate
students
and
a
very
telling
and
recent
data
point.
Occupancy
rates
for
off-campus
housing
remain
at
or
near
100
as
of
january
of
this
year,
and
rents
have
continued
to
increase
each
year.
This
lack
of
supply
has
caused
students
to
migrate
into
the
southeast
boise
neighborhood
displacing
families.
L
Cdg
filed
a
prior
application
as
saline
described,
which
the
council
denied,
based
on
concerns
that
the
project
needed
a
commercial
use,
housing
units
that
appeal
to
some
non-students,
better
pedestrian
and
frontage
design
and
more
specific
tree
mitigation,
and
so
cdg
redesigned
the
project
to
address
those
concerns.
Work
with
achd
on
the
pedestrian
and
street
improvements
and
worked
with
the
city
staff
and
forester
on
tree
mitigation.
L
The
project
was:
redesigned
has
175
apartments
with
547
bedrooms.
Amenities
include
the
three
interior,
courtyards
pool
fitness
workspaces
and
lounges.
The
building
is
limited
to
three
stories,
which
was
really
important
to
our
neighbors
down
from
the
original
five
and
then
four
that
were
proposed.
The
building
has
underground
parking
to
minimize
the
massing
and
we've
added
10
spaces.
L
With
this
redesign,
also
a
request
spoken
of
at
the
last
hearing,
we've
removed
condenser
units
off
of
the
roof
colored
the
roof
green
instead
of
white
we've
pulled
the
building
back
from
the
hillside
70
feet,
creating
that
70-foot
setback
at
the
rear
property
line,
we've
relocated
the
drainage
ditch
to
be
further
away
from
the
base
of
that
hill
as
well
also
as
requested
during
the
last
application.
The
redesign
project
now
includes
that
retail
space
that
saline
highlighted
23.75
square
feet
to
further
improve
the
streetscape.
L
We
will
construct
an
off-site
pedestrian
crossing
at
joyce
street
to
increase
safety
for
everyone
in
the
area.
The
applicant
hired
kittleson
to
study
this
and
achd
has
approved
it.
I'm
city
parks
and
city
staff
and
your
recommended
conditions
of
approval
coming
to
you,
provided
that
the
project
should
mitigate
with
176
caliber
inches
of
tree
mitigation
as
saline
described
and
parks
has
recommended
that
that
be
located
at
the
three
closer
city
parks.
We
are
open
to
any
location
council.
President
clegg
asked
if
that
could
also
go
in
private
locations.
L
We're
we're
happy
to
place
the
off-site
trees
wherever
the
city
would
like.
Also,
the
applicant
is
willing
to
increase
that
tree
mitigation
number
from
176
total
to
a
250
caliber
interest,
as
we
understand
that
is
an
important
issue
to
the
city,
also
as
requests
in
the
last
application.
We've
added
new
exterior
access
units
designed
to
appeal
to
non-students
such
as
bsu
employees
or
young
workers
that
want
to
be
near
downtown.
L
They
each
have
individual
sidewalks
to
their
entrances,
really
activating
the
streetscape.
You
can
see
this
illustrated
in
this
elevation
here.
I've
also
added
this
large
public
plaza
at
the
corner.
You
can
see
the
concepts
for
seating
really
designed
to
make
this
an
active
indoor.
Outdoor
space
also
redesigned
the
sidewalks.
Oh,
it
seems
to
just
be
advancing
on
its
own.
Here.
L
L
All
right,
I
think,
oh
I
don't
know
what
setting
it
suddenly
is
advancing
on
its
own.
M
J
L
Here
we
have
it,
did
it?
Okay,
my
apologies.
Thank
you
for
the
accommodation,
so
we
went
through
the
project
overview
here
to
allow
this
project
as
sailing
described.
We're
seeking
ro
zoning,
which
has
already
been
decided
by
the
city
that
this
that
the
mixed-use
designation
in
your
comprehensive
plan
is
compatible
with
ro
zoning.
But
the
inquiry
here
really
is
about
what
conditions
are
at
this
particular
site
in
the
surrounding
zoning
and
development
patterns
that
may
warrant
limitations
on
the
new
zone.
L
So
and
that's
what's
been
recommended
in
the
form
of
conditions
of
approval
in
the
development
agreement,
from
your
planning
staff
and
from
the
planning
commission,
and
we
agree
with
those
conditions,
and
we
think
that
those
limitations
that
have
been
imposed
on
this
zone
appropriately
mitigate
the
impacts
of
this
zone
in
this
location.
And
really
we
find
that
when
we
look
at
your
comprehensive
plan
and
the
surrounding
uses
that
this
is
really
an
ideal
project
for
this
location
and
there's
several
things,
I
want
to
show
you
about
why?
L
L
We're
a
half
mile
to
the
green
belt,
a
half
mile
to
albertson's
one
mile
to
the
boise
downtown.
We've
got
great
bike
and
pedestrian
connectivity
we're
at
the
corner
of
a
signalized
intersection,
there's
sidewalks
and
bike
lanes
on
both
sides
and
we're
constructing
the
new
off-site
pedestrian
crossing.
L
My
auto
advancing
presentation
we're
just
a
few
blocks.
We
please
come
see
if
you
can
pause
it
just.
L
Looking
to
your
comprehensive
plan,
we'll
try
to
get
to
these
slides
in
a
moment,
in
addition
to
being
this
mixed-use
area,
this
intersection
of
boise
and
protest
is
designated
as
a
neighborhood
activity
center,
which
supports
quote
small
scale,
retail
end
quote
and
higher
this
residential
within
a
quarter
mile
radius.
I'm.
C
Gonna,
I'm
gonna
pause.
You
deb,
we
just.
We
can't
hear
you
if
you'll
go
under
slide
show
there
should
be
a
place
where
you
could
hit
manual.
G
C
C
L
I'll
speak
up
too
thanks
for
letting
me
know
that,
so
looking
at
your
comprehensive
plan,
I
guess
just
to
get
us
focused
back
on
where
I'm
trying
to
go
with
this.
We
looked
at
all
of
the
policies
in
your
comprehensive
plan
to
see
how
it
supports
the
level
of
intensity
and
the
level
of
development
that
we're
providing
here
as
conditioned,
and
if
we
look
at
the
comprehensive
plan
with
the
neighborhood
activity
center
being
right
at
this
location
that
supports
small
scale,
retail
and
higher
density
residential
within
a
quarter
mile
radius.
L
The
project
report
points
out
that
the
density
range
of
this
neighborhood
activity
center
is
8
to
16
units
per
acre,
and
the
current
density
is
only
5.7.
This
project
is
going
to
add
that
small
scale
retail
use
and
bring
the
nac
up
to
a
7.1
density
closer
to
that
range.
That's
looking
for
blueprint
boise
also
suggests
that
higher
density
residential
uses
be
concentrated
at
the
center
of
that
activity
center
and
within
a
quarter
mile
of
transit.
L
L
L
The
project,
as
condition
of
the
da,
is
also
compatible
with
surrounding
zoning
the
size
between
commercial
zoning
on
our
east
and
r2
to
our
west.
So
we
provide
that
nice
transition
between
them
on
the
other
three
corners
of
the
bsu
campus
in
the
u
district,
another
ro
district
and
r3
the
r1c
borders
on
the
south,
but
that's
40
to
50
feet
above
the
site
and
our
building
is
set
back
70
feet.
The
project
as
conditioned
is
also
compatible
with
surrounding
development.
L
The
building
heights
capped
at
three
stories,
which
is
compatible
with
the
two
to
three
stories
and
the
four
to
five
stories
that
surround
us.
Other
conditions
of
approval
mitigate
our
impacts.
We
provide
274
parking
spaces
which
is
15
more
than
required.
We
have
550
bike
spaces,
which
is
347
more
than
is
required.
496
of
them
are
in
the
secure
garage
and
we
provide
a
bike
repair
station.
L
This
project
is
going
to
include
all
the
smart
transportation.
Alternatives
such
as
car
share
and
bike
share,
scooter
charging
hubs
on
site,
and
so
for
all
of
these
reasons,
this
is
why
ro
is
appropriate
both
from
surrounding
zoning
surrounding
development
and
in
your
comprehensive
plan.
With
that,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
brandt
styles.
O
Thank
you
very
much
brandt
styles,
collegiate
development
group,
3000
locusts
in
louis
missouri.
Can
you
update
me
and
let
me
know
what
what
time
we
have.
O
C
It
was
when
you
asked
me
that
question
it
was
probably
4
30.,
it's
four
now
we'll
add
30
seconds.
The
clerk
had
to
step
out
with
a
family
call.
O
Thank
you
very
much.
You
know
just
a
quick
overview
on
the
company.
You
know
collegiate
development
group
we're
a
small
development
company
built
housing
for
students
and
young
professionals
across
the
country.
We
we
couldn't
be
more
excited
about
the
activity
in
boise
and
our
involvement
in
it.
You
know
we
have
our
first
project
currently
under
construction
off
of
myrtle,
and
you
know
to
be
honest,
we're
as
excited,
if
not
more
excited
about
the
opportunity
at
boise
in
protest.
O
A
lot
of
you
know:
saline's
done
a
great
job
and
dad
did
a
great
job
identifying
some
of
the
changes,
and
you
know
what
the
proposal
is,
but
some
things
that
I
really
want
to
hit
you
know
well,
first
off
is
we're
going
to
be
relocating
tenants
that
consider
this
property
and
this
these
these
units
home,
and
we
understand
the
sensitivity
around
that
and
we've
worked
with
these
tenants
to
develop
a
tenant
assistant
package
to
help
lessen
the
burden
of
them.
O
Finding
a
new
apartment
attendants
recently
reached
out
to
us
after
our
proposal
and
ask
for
some
additional
items
and
we've
agreed
to
all
of
those
items
just
to
give
you
a
quick
overview,
we're
providing
them
six
month
notice
in
continued
comfort
communication
during
that
process
providing
professional
management
company
to
provide.
You
know,
relocation,
support,
moving
funds,
we're
providing
four
thousand
dollars
for
our
one
bedroom
units
and
fifty
five
hundred
dollars
for
our
two
bedroom
units
and
those
funds
are
really
being
taken
into
consideration
for
one
moving
cost.
O
An
increase
in
rental
amount
that
a
new
prop
a
new
apartment
unit
would
cost,
and
one
of
the
additional
last
recent
requests
was
some
additional
funds.
If
any
of
the
current
tenants
have
to
relocate
more
than
five
miles
or
it
takes
over
six
months
for
them
to
find
a
place,
something
that
we
were
happy
to
offer
and
then,
lastly,
is
our
affordable
option
to
return
into
our
new
project,
we're
allowing
all
of
the
existing
tenants
to
move
into
our
new
project
at
a
discounted
rental
rate.
O
O
In
addition
to
the
relocation
package,
we
are
going
to
be
adding
you
know,
having
the
affordable
housing
units
in
our
project
and
even
if
some
of
the
existing
tenants
don't
return
into
our
project,
we'll
have
we'll
be
making
10
units
available
at
hud
approved
rates
to
income,
restricted
applicants
for
three
years
as
the
city
has
developed
their
own.
You
know
affordable
housing
program,
we've
committed
to
apply
for
that
program
as
well
for
those
10
units
and
what
that
would
actually
do
is
increase
the
three-year
affordable
housing
units
to
a
to
a
15-year.
O
You
know
commitment
and
we're
hoping
that
we
can
be
approved
for
those
for
that
plan
as
well.
Saline
and
deb
did
a
great
job
of
identifying
some
of
the
major
changes
that
we've
made
specifically
around.
You
know
adding
some
neighborhood
retail.
O
We
think
the
retail
location
that
we
have
right
at
boise
in
protest
is
ideal
for
coffee
shops,
yoga
studio,
salon,
wine
bar
something
that
can
be
a
really
good
community
benefit,
and
then,
secondly,
you
know
one
of
the
items
that
was
of
concern
in
the
last
council
was
you
know
the
diversity
of
our
units
and
one
of
the
things
that
we've
done,
I
think,
does
two
things:
we've
added
some
two-bedroom
units
to
the
project,
some
more
two-bedroom
units
and
all
on
the
ground
floor
and
all
of
those
units
have
ground
floor
access
and
we
think
that
just
helps
increase
the
pedestrian
friendliness
and
diversity
of
the
unit
mix.
O
All
right,
well,
one
of
the
items
that
was
identified
in
the
last
council
meeting
was
the
overall
unit
mix,
and
one
thing
I
just
want
to
talk
about
is:
is
our
project.
Anyone
that
qualifies
can
live
in
our
project.
We
have
a
mix
of
unit
types.
If
this
was
just
a
student
housing
project
it
would.
We
would
really
focus
on
fours
and
five
bedroom
units
that
provides
the
highest
return
on
our
investment,
but
our
project
right
here
has
42
percent
small
format,
units.
What
I
mean
by
small
format.
Units
is
studios
ones
and
twos.
O
We
think
this
is
a
great
opportunity
for
young
professionals,
professors
graduate
students
to
live
in
our
project.
So
this
is
not
just
a
student
housing
project.
It
is
a
great
student
housing
location
because
it
is
because
it's
adjacency
to
boise
state,
but
because
of
our
unit
mix,
it
really
allows
for
a.
G
O
Population
so
a
couple
other
things
that
I
wasn't
able
to
identify
and
talk
through
that,
I
think
we
can
talk
through
on
the
rebuttal
side
specifically
around
marketing
on
the
parking,
but
I
just
want
to
thank
everybody
for
their
time.
We're
very
excited
about
this
project
and
you
know
we
appreciate
your
support
tonight.
E
C
That's
what
I
was
thinking
too
yeah
I'd
go
ahead,
because
then
you
might
have
heard
the
council
president
say.
Then
the
neighborhood
association
could
comment
on
them.
E
Oh
perfect,
thank
you.
So
a
couple
couple
of
questions
here,
one.
I
was
very
excited
to
hear
that
achd
earlier
today
approved
the
joy
street
crossing,
that's
something
that
has
certainly
been
needed
for
a
long
time.
One
of
the
questions
that
was
brought
up
at
the
last
time
that
we
talked
was
about
a
pedestrian
bicycle
study,
and
it
looks
like
that
you
had
asked
also
for
a
bike
lane
across
the
street.
O
So
we
attempted
to
work
with
achd
to
have
install
a
protective
bike
lane,
but
that
request
was
denied
by
adding
we
did
our
own
pedestrian
study
and
I
you
know,
listened
to
the
concerns.
G
O
Boise
state,
as
it
relates
to
pedestrian
crossing
on
at
boise
ave
and
the
that
pedestrian
one
there
is
a
crosswalk
at
boise
in
protest
and
just
looking
at
you
know,
pedestrian
activity
that,
because
the
sidewalk
does
end
at
joyce,
we
thought
you
know
it
would
definitely
improve
the
safety
of
the
pedestrian
activity.
If
we
had
that
crosswalk
at
joyce.
So
that's
what
we've
added,
but
you
know
there
is.
There-
are
dedicated
bike
lanes.
O
Our
hope
was
that
we
could
do
a
protected
bike
lane,
but
that
wasn't
allowed
so
outside
of
that,
we
haven't
done
a
formal
pedestrian
study,
but
are
confident
that
the
approach
that
we've
taken,
you
know,
definitely
improves
the
current
state
of
pedestrian
activity
where
it
is
right
now
today,.
E
Madam
mayor,
a
couple,
follow-up
questions
specifically
about
that
in
those
conversations
with
achd
did
you
learn
anything
about
when
there
may
be
scheduled
to
be
updates
or
improvements
at
that
particular
intersection?
Was
that
conversation
had,
and
I
guess
the
reason?
Why
is
that,
with
the
increased
pedestrian
activity?
I'm
not
super
familiar
with
that
intersection.
As
far
as
the
last
time
it
was
updated
and
what
types
of
additional
infrastructure
is
is
planned
there
or
currently
exists.
L
Madam
mayor
councilmember,
halliburton,
I
I
could
answer-
maybe
a
portion
of
what
you're
you're
asking
for
just
to
to
share
with
you
that
achd
did
comment
when
they
transmitted
their
report
today
that
they
would
consider
requests
from
the
city
in
their
for
their
next
integrated
five-year
work
plan
for
the
improvements
that
we
had
requested
that
they
didn't
allow,
particularly
the
in
particular
the
protected
bike
lanes.
L
K
P
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
council,
council
member
holly
burton
the
the
answer
to
that
question.
Our
concern
was
not
with
the
use
of
protected
bike
lanes.
It's
with
the
scope
of
them.
Our
recommendation
would
be
a
more
comprehensive
project
implementing
them
all
at
once,
and
so
our
recommendation
was
that
this
city
could
include
them
in
their
in
a
future
integrated
five-year
work
plan
request
and
that
that
could
be
looked
at
as
an
independent
project
to
make
that
improvement.
E
D
Council
president,
go
ahead.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
so
I
have
a
couple
of
questions.
D
Deb
you
mentioned
that
the
applicant
is
willing
to
increase
the
tree
mitigation
and
I
wonder
if
you
had
had
any
discussions
about
that
and
staff
may
also
want
to
comment
if
we're
going
to
do
that,
I'd
like
to
include
it
in
the
conditions
and
but
I
don't
know
how
to
describe
what
that
would
be.
If,
if
we
go
ahead
with
this
project
tonight,.
L
Madam
mayor
council,
president
clegg,
no,
we
we
surprised
staff
with
that
one,
but
we're
happy
to
help
craft.
That
condition,
I
think
saline's
current
conditions
included
something
about
176,
total
caliper,
inches
on
and
off
site,
and
so
through
a
combination
of
on-site
and
off-site
and
the
off-site
has
to
be
within
two
miles
in
a
city
park.
L
So
I
would
suggest
you
just
change
the
number
from
176
to
250
per
the
applicant
suggestion
and
agreement,
if
that,
if
that
works
for
you,
we're
also
open,
as
I
mentioned,
to
change
the
location
if,
in
addition
to
within
the
three
city
parks,
that
parks
has
identified
for
some
of
those
extra
mitigation
items.
If
you
have
a
different
location,
you'd
like
to
direct
that,
of
course,
the
applicant
is
open
to
any
location.
D
Thank
you,
this
question,
I
don't
know
if
it's
for
you
or
someone
else
wonder
how
this
development
would
be
marketed
to
prospective
students
in
terms
of
location
and
transportation
needs,
and
will
you
market
the
alternatives
that
are
available.
O
Absolutely
council,
member
clark
from
a
marketing
perspective.
We
have
a
national
property
management
company
that
will
be
doing
all
of
our
marketing,
and
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
when
we're
talking
about
and
looking
at
parking
a
lot
of
it
has
to
do
with.
You
know
our
location
and
our
adjacency
to
campus
and
that's
one
of
the
big
that's
one
of
the
biggest
selling
points,
and
I
think
if
you
provide
100
parking
per
bed,
you
know
you're,
enabling
you
know
people
to
bring
their
cars.
We
don't
want
that.
O
O
You
know,
enabling
everyone
to
bring
a
car
and
then
provide
smart
alternatives
and
we
definitely
incorporate
those
smart
alternatives
in
our
marketing
material,
whether
it's
you
know
scooter
scooter,
charging
hubs
that
we
have
car
share
programs-
and
you
know
all
of
the
other
alternatives.
Bike
share
bike
parking.
It's
just
from
our
perspective,
it's
just
it's
smart
development
and
smart
growth,
and
I
think
you
know
the
younger
generations
really
appreciate
that
level
higher
level
of
sustainability
and
because
of
our
adjacency
to
campus.
We
we
really
communicate
that.
O
You
know
we,
don't
you
don't
need
a
you,
don't
need
a
car.
These
are
the
smart
alternatives
that
we
have
for
you,
but
some
people
will
need
a
car.
Some
people
have
jobs
that
you
know,
while
they're
working
at
school
or
whether
they're
working
in
their
careers
that
they
need
a
car.
So
we
do
provide
parking
and
we've
got
about
50
of
our
residents
being
parked
underground.
Here,
the
others,
you
know,
have
the
smart
alternatives
at
their
disposal.
D
D
And
would
you
be
willing
to
accept
that
as
a
condition
that
that
is
how
you'll
handle
that.
D
O
Yes,
absolutely
it's
something
that
we're
open
to
there's
give
and
take,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
wanted
to
talk
about,
that
we
just
didn't
have
enough
time
was
to
even
propose
a
solution
for
that,
based
on
some
of
the
conversations
that
were
had
during
planning
commission.
O
What
the
what
that
does
to
the
program
is
it
reduces
our
amenity
square
footage
a
little
bit,
which
is
something
that
we're
open
to,
but
it
also
eliminates
one
of
the
two
bedroom
units
that
it's
on
the
ground
floor
that
has
you
know
exterior
walkout.
That
we
really
feel
like
is
you
know,
definitely
adds
to
the
diversity
of
the
units
and,
I
think,
would
help
with
the
diversity
of
the
tenant
base.
But
if
that,
but
if
adding
retail
is
something
that
city
council
would
like
to
see,
it's
something
that
we
are.
E
E
Two
hundred
ground
floor
unit-
yes
great,
and
I
think
some
of
the
you
know
in
our
maybe
our
neighborhood
associations
will
touch
on
this
later-
is
the
the
ability
to
really
use
this
as
an
activity
center
for
the
entire
neighborhood
and
increase
the
possibilities
for
everybody
to
be
able
to
use
that,
and
I
know
that
that's
a
concern.
I
also
know
that
there
are
concerns
about
you
know.
Is
this
the
appropriate
place
for
that
type
of
commercial
space
and
with
some
of
the
other
businesses
struggling
in
in
the
area?
E
Does
it
make
sense,
and
I
think
that
that
conversation
can
go
either
way?
Sometimes,
in
my
mind,
I
think
if
there's
a
tipping
point
and
you
get
enough
businesses
there,
then
all
of
a
sudden
you've
got
a
hub
and
a
hot
spot,
and
it
truly
is
that
activity
center.
So
I
appreciate
you
giving
some
clarity
and
kind
of
exploring
that
space
a
little
bit
more.
O
And
we
want
it
to
be
a
vibrant
space
as
well
and
adding
more
square
footage.
You
know,
you
know
we're
confident
in
the
you
know
originally
proposed
that
we
can,
you
know,
fill
that
up
with
you
know,
quality.
You
know
local
neighborhood
businesses
continuing
to
add
on
to
that.
Just
inc
decreases
our
confidence
that
we
can
maintain
the
level
of
vibrancy
and
and
activity
on
that
corner.
But
at
the
end
of
the
day,
if
it's
a
requirement,
we
will
we'll
we'll
figure
it
out
and
we'll
make
that
a
very
vibrant
corner.
Q
Thank
you,
eric
berg,
1301,
south
grand
tab
representing
cena,
madam
mayor
and
council
members
living
in
one
of
the
first
areas,
south
of
the
river,
to
be
developed
dating
all
the
way
back
to
the
19th
century.
I'm
constantly
reminded
how
far
reaching
the
decisions
that
we
make
in
development
are.
The
success
of
our
neighborhood
centers
often
hinge
on
just
a
few
projects,
as
their
lifespans
set
the
course
for
the
next
50
to
100
years.
For
that
area,
the
council
and
commission
rightly
decided
to
deny
a
largely
identical
project
to
the
current
one.
Q
One
of
the
major
reasons
was
that
the
rezone
request
does
not
comply
with
the
approval
criteria.
The
letter
rightly
points
out
that
ro
is
a
zone
utilized
near
dense,
commercial
or
dense
residential
areas,
providing
flexibility
for
transition
zones,
but
none
of
that's
really
applicable
in
this
case.
This
is
primarily
due
to
the
r1
zoning
and
the
r2
zoning
surrounding
this
property,
putting
r0
next
to
r1
and
r2,
and
not
r3
or
commercial.
Zoning
is
really
pretty
unprecedented
in
the
city.
The
ro
simply
doesn't
fit
the
surrounding
zones,
while
other
zones
do.
Q
The
letter
from
the
city
also
addressed
the
lack
of
mixed
use
in
this
project,
and
the
project
before
you
tonight
does
have
retail
space
where
previous
one
did
not.
However,
the
amount
of
retail
space
it
has,
at
least
on
the
original
design,
when
it
was
only
about
2
400
square
feet,
is
only
1.1
of
the
total
floor
space
of
the
entire
project.
Q
That
means
that
over
98
of
it
is
residential
and
less
than
two
percent
is
commercial.
That
hardly
seems
to
qualify
for
the
termix
juice,
especially
considered
that
this
is
a
similar
amount
of
square
footage
that
would
have
been
a
lobby
coffee
shop
in
a
previous
proposal
that
was
previously
rejected.
Commercial
is
desperately
needed
in
this
area.
It's
said
that
you
know
some
of
the
businesses
are
struggling,
but
crickets
has
been
a
mainstay
of
our
area
and
is
often
busy.
Q
Q
Maverick
stations
of
that
era
tend
to
be
about
2
400
square
feet,
2500
square
feet,
which
is
similar
to
what
they
were
originally
proposing,
which
means
that
net,
really
no
commercial
or
maybe
a
thousand
foot
of
commercial,
would
be
added
on
to
this
project,
which
is
hardly
really
anything.
It
doesn't
help
our
neighborhood
in
terms
of
a
net
gain
cena,
supports
mixed-use
developments
and
supports
a
healthy
use
of
a
mix
of
uses,
especially
activity
centers,
and
this
project
just
doesn't
meet
that.
Q
Another
reason
for
the
rejection
of
the
previous
project
was
the
lack
of
diversity
of
housing
types,
the
dominance
of
student,
oriented
housing,
four
to
five
bedroom,
dormitory
style
setup
units,
which
is
actually
what
I
lived
in
college
too,
was
a
concern
of
many
over
the
course
of
this
project.
If
you
look
at
the
number
of
beds
in
the
project,
the
design
has
largely
remained
dominated
by
this
student-focused
housing.
Q
Not
only
has
the
applicant
not
addressed
this
concern,
it
may
be
true
that
by
unit
the
number
of
units
has
changed
to
be
a
little
more
non-student
oriented,
but
we
have
to
look
at
the
number
of
beds.
That's
the
number
of
actual
people
who
live
there,
and
it
has
not
only
not
addressed
that
concern.
The
current
proposal
has
only
22
of
those
beds
in
a
non-dormitory
arrangement
if
they
were
to
increase
the
residential
and
take
away
one
of
the
walk-up
apartments.
Q
Q
This
really
is
the
last
chance
for
us
to
get
any
mixed
use
or
commercial
along
this
corridor
without
a
commitment
to
have
mixed
use
in
this
development,
the
fate
of
the
neighborhood
activity
center
will
likely
be
in
name
only
and
be
big
juds,
a
coffee
shop
and
a
tobacco
shop.
From
now,
until
who
knows,
the
good
news
is
because
of
the
hard
work
of
council.
It
doesn't
have
to
be
this
way.
Q
This
project
is
not
the
only
thing
that
can
be
built
here
and
new
tools,
such
as
the
housing
bonus
ordinance
that
was
recently
passed.
Pedestrian
commercial
zoning,
which
has
been
used
very
creatively
in
the
city,
could
be
used
to
build
a
project
that
is
a
better
asset
to
the
city,
the
neighborhood
and
the
applicant.
Q
I
agree
that
if
any
redevelopment
is
going
to
happen
here,
it
makes
sense
to
be
at
a
higher
density.
This
is
a
great
location,
but
we
have
to
ask
ourselves
if
this
is
the
right
answer.
If
the
project
before
us
is
the
right
answer,
we
want
to
live
with
for
the
next
50
to
100
years,
and
the
answer
last
time
was
no
and
we
believe
it
should
still
be
now.
Q
Q
The
same
claims
by
the
city
to
why
this
should
not
be
approved
have
not
changed.
The
concerns
of
the
neighbors
have
not
changed.
The
surroundings
of
the
neighborhood
have
not
changed.
This
project
has
not
changed
in
any
significant
way
from
what
was
previously
rejected
and,
in
some
ways
in
the
diversity
of
housing,
has
actually
gotten
worse.
Q
We
cannot,
as
a
city,
establish
a
precedent
that,
if
one
does
not
get
the
decision
it
wants
from
city
council,
the
solution
is
to
run
the
same
project
back
and
hope
they
have
a
change
of
mind.
It's
unfair
to
the
city
and
the
neighbors
who
then
have
to
reorganize
right
back
in
the
middle
of
a
pandemic
to
fight
a
project
that
is
really
no
different
from
what
they
just
spent
a
year,
working
on
and
giving
their
feedback
to
and
having
counsel
listen
to
their
feedback.
Q
To
approve
the
same
project
after
rejecting
only
a
year
ago
would
set
the
precedent
that
developers
should
think
of
a
no
from
council
more
as
a
comeback
later,
and
that
is
not
the
way
we
need
to
do
things
it
didn't
fit.
Then
it
didn't
fit
now
and
we
shouldn't
allow
anyone,
whether
it
be
neighborhoods
or
developers
to
just
try
to
get
their
way
through
exhaustion
of
their
opponents
or
council.
G
Thank
you
eric
thanks
for
your
testimony,
both
this
time
and
last
time.
It's
helpful.
One
thing
that
I've
always
wondered
about
cena
in
particular,
is
what
outreach
or
efforts
on
these
big
projects.
You
do
to
engage
the
neighborhood
before
the
board
votes.
In
other
words,
do
you
poll?
Do
you
have
a
mailing
list?
Do
you
reach
out
to
people
who
are
you
hearing
from
before
coming
to
a
conclusion
as
to
how
to
vote.
Q
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
councilman.
What
we
generally
do
is
we
attend
all
the
neighborhood
meetings.
We
also
try
to
communicate
with
the
neighbors.
In
this
case,
many
of
the
neighbors
were
residents.
Obviously,
since
you
know,
there's
no
one
living
in
the
maverick
station.
Currently
we
really
try
to
communicate
with
anyone
who's
adjacent
to
the
project.
We
try
to
bring
people
into
our
meetings.
We've
had
multiple
people
who
are
either
residents
or
neighbors.
Q
Council,
our
mad
mayor
and
council
member,
certainly
we
have
it's
a
little
harder
because
of
people
tend
to
move
more,
but
we
do
have
on
our
board
somebody
who
is
a
renter
and
who
was
a
previous
boise
state
student.
We
have
on
our
board
someone
who
owns
rental
property
for
boise
state
students
in
the
area.
Q
D
Good
evening,
eric
thanks
for
being
here,
so
I
have
a
question
for
you
about
the
mixed
use.
I
it's
always
a
bit
of
a
struggle
to
understand
how
much
mixed
use
is
viable,
and
you
mentioned
that
the
maverick
that's
been
here
for
quite
a
while
is
about
the
same
size
as
the
mixed
use.
That's
being
proposed.
Q
Madam
mayor
council,
president,
you
know
I
don't
happen
to
have
a
market
study
per
se.
What
I
do,
what
I
can
say
is
there
are
places
along
broadway
that
do
tend
to
fill
up.
The
old,
odd,
fellows
lounge
usually
does,
and
if
we
see
you
know,
there's
the
taco
truck
and
the
tobacco
shop,
I'm
sure
if
they
could
do
a
brick
and
mortar
place
they
they
might
be
interested
in
such
things.
Q
What
I
look
at
when
I
look
at
trying
to
find
something
in
the
realm
of
mixed
use,
is
I
look
to
the
standard
we
have
in
other
parts
of
the
cities?
So
if
we
look
at
bound
crossing,
if
we
look
at
hyde
park,
if
we
look
at
the
buildings
along
broadway,
it
usually
is
that
the
entire
frontage
or
darn
near
the
entire
frontage
on
the
major
road
is
some
sort
of
retail
and
then
residential
above
and
so
forth.
Q
And
so
you
know
if
it
obviously
you
know
if
it
were
my
project,
I
would
probably
look
to
trying
to
build
some
work
and
and
residence
units.
The
combination
we've
seen
that's
worked
in
other
places
where
your
residence
is
above.
The
commercial
space
that
you're
leasing
and
I
would
kind
of
look
to
put
those
all
along
boise
ave
and
then
maybe
do
some
walk
up
apartments
along
the
back
side,
where
you
can
walk
up
to
the
to
the
nice
open
area
up
against
up
against
the
rim.
E
Mary
question
for
eric,
and
maybe
just
some
quick
clarification
from
staff,
my
understanding
that
from
the
last
proposal
the
development
has
shrunk
in
height
is
that
correct.
K
Oh
sorry,
sorry
eric,
madam
mayor
councilmember,
halliburton.
Yes,
the
proposal
before
with
the
last
rezone
request
was
a
mix
between
four
and
three
stories,
and
so,
with
this
request,
it
is
only
three
stories.
K
E
Eric,
I
guess
one
thanks
for
being
here.
It's
always
good
to
see
you,
you
always
show
up
strong,
and
I
think
we
always
ask
you
hard
questions
because
of
it
so
appreciate
you
being
here.
So
what
I
heard
from
you
was
that
you
wanted
to
see
more
retail
commercial
space
on
the
bottom,
to
kind
of
better
activate
that
area
and
the
neighborhood
and
kind
of
serve
all
folks.
E
I
also
heard
you
say
that
you
weren't
against
density
and
you
thought
that
it
was
appropriate
area
for
density,
and
so
I
guess
my
question
for
you
is
that
you
know
we
did
hear
some
concerns
from
neighbors
about
the
height,
probably
more
so
up
on
depot
bench
than
some
of
the
folks
down
the
vista
neighborhood
association.
E
Q
Madam
mayor
council,
member
halliburton,
I
think
you
know,
I
think
the
size
of
the
project
right
now
is
a
pretty
good
scale.
It
began
as
a
five.
The
first
proposal
we
ever
saw
at
cena
was
five
stories
with
four-story
parking
garage.
Q
It's
gotten
quite
a
bit
better
in
its
massing.
Since
then
you
know,
I
don't
know
what
the
trade-off
would
be
for
height
versus
commercial.
What
I
would
say
is
that
it
seems
to
me
that
the
pretty
easy
fix
would
be
to
not
only
if
you
took,
for
example,
some
of
the
four
and
five
bedroom
units
and
traded
it
for
a
commercial.
C
Anyone
else
for
eric
eric,
it
was
great
to
see
you
thanks
for
joining
us
tonight.
Thanks
a
bunch
all
right,
we
are
going
to
take
a
there's,
no
other
neighborhood
association.
So
now
we're
going
to
go
into
the
public
hearing
or
the
public
portion
of
this
we're
going
to
take
a
five
minute
break
and
then
be
back
and
then,
after
that,
we'll
take
a
break
every
hour
and
a
half
or.
C
C
Hi
jim,
we
saw
your
message
and
I
saw
that
you're
part
of
the
depot
bench
neighborhood
association.
Typically,
our
code
would
allow
for
another
neighborhood
association
to
finish
the
time
used
by
the
neighborhood
association
of
record.
That's
four
and
a
half
minutes.
If
that's
not
enough,
I'm
happy
to
bump
it
up
to
10.
R
I
I
won't
you
know
after
I'm,
I'm
not
gonna
be
near
as
elegant
or
as
fact-filled
as
eric.
So
I
can.
I
can
take
the
last
four
minutes
of
eric's
time.
Okay
and
plus
you've
heard
from
us
three
times
already
on
this,
so
I
think
that
you
know
I'm
just
gonna
highlight
maybe
a
couple
things
that
eric
didn't
and.
C
I
wanted
to
let
everybody
know
tonight:
you
don't
have
to
read
your
address
into
the
record
if
you
don't
want
to,
and
the
clerk
can
get
it
from
you
we're
trying
not
to
live
broadcast
people's
addresses
if
people
don't
want
them
live
broadcast
on
the
live
stream
or
the
replay
after
so
just
anybody,
that's
listening
in
it's
by
habit.
People
still
keep
doing
it,
but
you
don't
have
to.
If
you
don't
want
to
go
ahead.
Jim.
R
Okay,
thank
you,
jim
pickett,
I'm
a
long
time.
Member
of
the
depot
bench
neighborhood
association
I
live
at
3501
windsor
drive,
boise,
idaho,
it's
already
out
in
the
record
a
whole
bunch
of
places,
madame
madame
mayer
and
council
members,
as
we've
written
three
times
to
both
planning
and
zoning
and
city
council.
We
we
do
appreciate
the
changes
that
the
applicant
has
made
to
their
design,
especially
with
regard
to
height.
R
R
Additionally,
as
with
my
colleague
eric
mentioned,
you
know,
2
000
or
I
think
2
600
square
feet
of
retail
space
doesn't
really
seem
like
a
mixed
use
or
neighborhood
activity
center
to
us.
We
appreciate
the
the
comment
this
evening
to
up
that
to
potential
potentially
by
50
of
the
current
use
to
3500.
I
don't
think
that
losing
one
bedroom
unit
is
catastrophic,
given
the
number
of
bedroom
units
that
they
are,
they
are
proposing.
R
R
I
really
just
can't
see
the
current
neighbors
moving
back
in
to
this
place
that
this
new
you
know
there
is
there
is
walk-in
level,
but
I
just
can't
see
that
the
type
of
housing
that
the
the
people
and
the
current
residents
have
and
and
enjoy
where
they
can
go
outside
and
be
part
of
their
own
community
is,
could
be
replaced
by
what
is
proposed
here.
R
I
do
think
also
think
that,
after
three
years
time,
which
was
in
the
application
until
I
saw
this
evening,
you
know
these
units
are
gonna
be
lost
forever.
These
affordable
units
could
be
lost
forever,
and
so
you
know
the
housing
crisis
in
boise
is
not
going
to
magically
disappear
at
the
end
of
that
time,
I
think
you
know,
like
I
said
the
scale.
The
project
is
relatively
unchanged.
It's
still
a
massive
block
that
will
face
boise
avenue.
It's
a
solid
structure.
R
They've
done
some
setbacks,
but
if
you
stand
on
that
corner,
that's
a
that's
a
huge
building
going
to
show
itself
to
everyone
on
that
corner.
You
know
one
thing
as
eric
said:
the
developer
has
a
project
and
they
want
that
project
and
they've
gone
through
with
basically
an
unchanged
project.
They've
made
some
concessions.
R
You
know
the
bus
stops
nice.
I
looked
at
the
bus
route.
There's
no
there's
no
place
that
bus
goes
the
bus.
Stop
at
that
corner.
Go
you
have
to
walk
to
either
get
to
a
downtown
bus.
Stop
that
bus
goes
to
the
mall.
That's
the
only
place.
It
goes
so
that
bus
stop
is
nice,
but
the
bus,
the
bus
doesn't
use
it
currently.
So
just
throwing
that
out
there,
but
the
developer
had
a
plan
and
they've
moved
through
that
plan
and
they've
not
reached
out
to
our
neighborhood
association.
R
I
don't
know
if
they've
reached
out
to
eric's
neighborhood
association.
So
you
know
here
we
are
a
year
later
they've
made
changes,
they've
done
they've
reached
out
to
council,
but
they
haven't
reached
out
to
the
people
that
are
affected
and
that's
really
kind
of
sad.
R
C
C
That
sound
good,
the
for
so
first
off
get
to
my
list.
S
Good
evening
it
is
lean
chaffee
hill
for
the
record.
I
am
liane
chaffee
and
we
begin
madam
mayor
and
city
council
members.
S
I
too
feel
like
this
is
a
project
that
is
maybe
a
good
project,
it's
in
the
wrong
place,
and
I
am
really
sad
that
it
will
displace
these
the
long-term,
affordable
housing.
During
this
battle,
we've
become
friends,
it's
been
really
interesting
to
be
able
to
get
to
know
neighbors
that
were
over
the
hill,
but
we
didn't
know
that.
I'm
glad
to
hear
that
there's
some
more
changes
in
the
financial
packet
and
health.
I
don't
think
there
was
enough
actual
assistance
to
get
people
relocated.
S
I
I'm
really
concerned
because
to
me
this
project,
as
it
goes
in
absolutely
eliminates
any
possibility
of
a
a
real
neighborhood
associate
or
a
neighborhood
activity
center,
like
we've
seen
at
high
park.
No,
we
don't
want
it
to
be
four
stories.
High,
no
way
three
is
massive
and
big,
and
it
just
no.
We
don't
want
that
to
happen.
S
I
think
the
projects
just
is
in
the
wrong
spot.
It
super
saturates
that
intersection
with
people
and
with
bikes
and
with
more
cars
and
everything
that
is
around
it
is
has
some
kind
of
residential
zone.
S
I'm
concerned
about
the
safety
factors
they
said
there
was
a
nine
percent
estimated
increase
in
traffic
because
of
the
cars
from
the
cvg
project,
but
and
so
at
nine
percent.
They
don't
have
to
have
a
traffic
study,
but
at
ten
percent
they
would
have
to
so
it's
really
getting
close
agree
about
the
transit
bus
system.
It
doesn't
voices,
doesn't
really
do
that.
I'm
concerned
about
pedestrians
that
are
going
across
the
beacon
and
protest
and
boise
avenue.
S
I
j
walk,
I
know,
but
if
you
have
with
a
number
of
students,
I
figure
you'd
have
at
least
2
000
crossings
a
day,
and
if
you
think
that
everybody's
going
to
head
down
to
the
lights,
no
matter
where
they
won't,
I
am,
I
just-
was
able
to
see
the
acdhd
project
and
they
were
talking
about
riverside
edge
project
and
they
still
had
15
of
their
people
were
parking
cars
on
the
street.
There
is
no
place
to
park
them.
S
I'm
sad
that
this
was
brought
up
again
so
quickly.
Yes,
we're
tired,
and
I
and
I
just
have
a
question:
what
constitutes
the
a
change
that
would
give
a
whole
new
project
number
and
a
whole
new
refresh
start
date.
Thank
you.
C
S
T
T
Okay,
my
name
is
bart
chavey,
a
long-term
residence
of
boise,
idaho,
and
I'm
opposed
to
the
proposed
development
for
a
number
of
reasons,
three
of
which
I'll
go
through
the
first
jim
pickett
just
dealt
with,
and
I
agree
with
him
that
it's
a
real
shame
to
remove
the
low
income
housing
from
individuals
that
can't
that
individuals
can
afford
and
think
it's
unacceptable
a
disappointment
he
offered
to
supply
some
to
live
in
new
housing
at
a
reduced
rate
sounds
good,
but
it's
probably
not
appealing
to
the
displaced
residents
when
the
age
difference,
lifestyle
and
economic
status
of
the
individuals
is
so
different.
T
T
C
Next
up
we
have
tammy
mcmillan
and
then
after
that
pam
is
it
ramer
romer,
ramer,
romer
and
celine
you'll
have
her
slides
great.
C
C
Yeah,
I'm
gonna
ask
if
you
could
help.
I
don't
know
if
you're
able
to
communicate.
C
V
So
you
can
see
them
all
right.
Thank
you.
All
right
go
ahead
and
go
to
the
next
slide.
Please
celine!
Good
evening.
My
name
is
pam
romer,
I'm
a
resident
at
writing
ball
place
apartments
that
will
be
that
will
be
displaced.
I
am
opposed
still
opposed
to
the
rezone
at
1909
and
2001
west
boise
avenue.
Isn't
this
beautiful?
V
The
silver
maple
alone
is
worth
97
400.
Next,
this
same
project
as
proposed
about
six
months
ago,
will
still
destroy
open
space
and
a
mature
tree
canopy.
The
new
plan
is
still
the
same:
massive
overwhelming
monoculture
project
still
running
by
the
bedroom
and
promoting
news
for
students
and
bsu
faculty
and
grad
students.
Next,
the
number
of
units
have
decreased,
but
the
bedroom
count
has
increased
by
10
now
547
bedrooms.
V
The
next
three
slides
will
show
the
previous
september
plans
on
the
left
and
the
current
plans
on
the
right.
Next,
six
front-facing
two-bedroom
units
have
been
added
retail
space
that
is
not
much
bigger
than
big
jugs
has
been
included
possible
two
shops,
turning
a
tenant
coffee
bar
into
a
public
coffee
shop
and
don't
know
something
else.
One
courtyard
has
been
narrowed.
The
number
of
four
and
five
bedroom
units
have
increased
and
the
number
of
one
two
and
three
bedroom
units
have
decreased
next.
V
The
plans
for
the
second
and
third
floor
are
not
much
different.
Just
additional
bedrooms
recombined
to
allow
for
a
higher
bedroom
count
per
unit
and
a
lower
unit
count.
Next,
there
is
no
adaptability
in
the
plans,
as
recommended
by
the
mayor
in
last
year's
city
council
september,
hearing
same
safety
issues,
as
discussed
in
last
year's
hearings,
still
waiting
to
hear
about
bsu's
master
plan
and
how
they
will
address
their
housing
responsibilities.
V
Next
protest,
boise
avenue
is
a
designated
neighborhood
activity
center.
The
community
would
like
to
see
a
vibrant
mixed
use
that
would
be
as
wonderful
or
more
so
than
bowen
crossing.
We
have
a
dream:
several
neighbors
have
shared
their
vision
of
what
our
neighborhood
activity
center
could
look
like.
V
Next,
this
activity
center
is
not
a
regional
use,
it
is
a
neighborhood
activity
center.
There
are
no
housing
choices,
no
mix
of
types
or
price
ranges
in
the
project.
A
mix
of
the
number
of
rentable
bedrooms
in
a
unit
is
not
a
mix.
Use
our
neighborhood
activity
center
will
become
a
student
housing
density
center.
Next,
according
to
the
oregon
trail
parkway
plan
introduction,
this
plan
provides
a
means
of
protecting
boise
avenue
and
surrounding
neighborhoods
as
historical
resources
and
enhancing
the
cultural
and
aesthetic
values
of
the
street.
V
Next,
some
of
the
wildlife
that
cause
our
community
home
blue
herons
ducks
deer
turkeys,
coyotes
varmints.
We
even
have
an
owl
that
lives
down
below
next.
The
courtyard
at
riddenball
place
apartments,
a
great
place
to
relax
from
the
world
to
gather
for
family
and
community
functions
to
share
barbecues,
have
concerts
to
play,
croquet,
etc.

This
is
not
going
to
be
considerable.
I
really
am
against
this.
I
don't
think
it
would
be
good
in
this
community,
my
husband's
a
veteran
disability,
so
on
social
security
we
got
a
short
living
income.
I've
had
to
pick
up
a
second
job
right
now,
and
I
don't
know
where,
where
we're
going
to
really
go,
you
know
to
even
be
able
for
me
to
even
travel
to
work.
I
work
at
fred
meyers
right
up
here
on
the
hill
at
federal
way.
W
Literally
income-
I
just
don't
understand
how
this
is
going
to
work
just
like
when
school
school
started
back
up
a
month
a
month
two
months
ago,
right
when
they
did
the
rezone
hearing
down
here
on
joyce,
there
was
a
school
bus
stop
there.
It
was
still
dark
in
the
morning
with
their
lights
on
and
they
have
their
stop
sign
signed
out
for
the
upcoming
traffic
and
the
cars
were
still
going
right
through.

X
Okay,
perfect,
my
name
is
jenny,
lyke
and
I
live
in
the
mesa
vista
neighborhood
that
sits
directly
above
the
proposed
development
site.
X
X

The
city
council
has
the
ability
to
deny
this
project,
as
it
has
done
once
before,
and
take
the
time
for
other
options
to
be
brought
to
the
table.
A
student
housing
dormitory
with
a
2
300
square
foot
coffee
shop
is
by
no
means
a
boise
neighborhood
activity
center.
You
only
have
to
look
at
the
boise
city
website
to
see
what
they
term
a
neighborhood
activity
center
destinations
that
serve
one
or
more
neighborhoods.
They
are
typically
characterized
by
a
compact
scale
and
pedestrian
friendly
design
that
encourages
pedestrian
access
from
adjacent
neighborhoods.
X
Examples
include
bound
crossing
hyde
park,
36th
street
and
hill
road.
What
cdg
is
proposing
does
not
fall
under
the
description
of
a
boise
activity,
neighborhood
activity
center.
It
is
it
in
no
way
resembles
bound
crossing
hyde
park
nor
36th
and
hill.
I
know
the
site
size
is
smaller
than
the
neighborhood
activity.
Centers
noted,
but
I
do
believe
a
meaningful
neighborhood
activity
center
on
a
smaller
scale
is
possible
for
this
parcel
of
land.
X
I
encourage
you
to
deny
this
project
again
and
give
developers
the
chance
to
bring
fresh
ideas
to
the
table
that
will
benefit
all
citizens
and
all
neighbors.
Let's
turn
the
corner
of
beacon,
avenue
and
boise
avenue
into
a
development
that
we
can
all
enjoy
and
be
proud
of
for
years
to
come.
Thank
you.
C
N
C
N
Okay,
so
my
statement
here
on
this
is
my
name
is
ryan.
I
live
in
apartment
7
of
2001,
west
boise
avenue,
and
I
do
appreciate
your
guys's
time
to
allow
me
to
go
ahead
and
talk
about
the
issues
that
we
have
here
for
this
development.
Now,
I'm
under
the
impression
that
normally
people
can
go
ahead
and
do
whatever
they.
V
N
With
their
property,
the
problem
is
that
what
they're
trying
to
do
here
will
cause
problems
with
other
people's
other
people's
property.
Right
now,
in
our
neighborhood,
we've
had
a
couple
different
people
move
out
from
out
of
our
neighborhood,
due
to
the
stress
of
not
knowing
what
the
stability
of
our
housing
is
now
right
now,
the
center
area,
that
is
our
little
thing
in
the
middle,
is
packed
up
with
cars,
because
everybody
that
moves
here
has
a
vehicle.
N
So
this
idea
that
we're
that
we're
going
to
get
a
whole
bunch
of
population
here
that
none
of
these
people
use
cars
or
anything
else,
is
absolutely
absurd.
The
other
idea
is,
if
you
look
at
their
plans,
that
they
have
where
they
have
a
bike
area
at
the
back
of
the
the
air
back
of
their
the
building
that
they
plan
to
build
they're
going
into
a
little
area
next
door
that
happens
to
be
actually
a
private
road.
N
I
don't
know
if
they've
actually
worked
out
something
with
the
neighbors,
I
just
severely
doubt
it
so.
Yes,
I've
actually
seen
different
issues
here.
I
don't
think
that
this
is
a
good
idea
for
the
location
that
they're
looking
for
I'm
personally,
you
know
I
would
like
to
see
more
development
here
in
boise
this
area
just
isn't
for
it.
I
have
and
that's
basically
my.
C
A
A
I
hope
you
had
the
opportunity
to
review
my
strong
towns,
article
from
our
house
to
god's
suites.
It
was
very
informative.
I
had
a
dream
of
fulfilling
the
vision
of
the
boise
avenue,
protest,
road
and
beacon
street
neighborhood
activity
center
in
my
imagination,
the
boise
city
council
paused,
and
voted
down
the
boise
avenue
student
housing
project
for
the
third
time.
The
city
realized
that
piecemeal
development
would
not
achieve
the
goals
of
an
nnc
and
encourage
neighborhood
residents,
the
two
neighborhood
associations,
business
and
property
owners,
city
staff
and
bsu
to
vision.
A
A
The
new
thriving
mill
district
now
compares
with
hyde
park
and
bound
crossing
as
an
enterprising
and
attractive
nac.
The
first
breakthrough
in
my
dream
was
when
a
regional
non-profit
housing
foundation
acquired
the
rydenbaugh,
place
apartments
and
upgraded
the
24
units
into
in
central
courtyard
into
a
god
swiss
senior
living
model.
It
also
refurbished
the
canal,
creating
a
small
park
and
walkway.
The
next
opportunity
was
the
new
ownership
of
the
former
maverick
and
big
judge
site,
which
resulted
in
a
three-story
mixed-use
building
with
underground
parking.
A
Big
judge
returned,
as
well
as
new
retail
office
space,
including
an
office
for
cena
name,
this
canal
apartments
at
dex
lookout
with
a
view
on
the
canal
and
hillside
of
native
plantings
to
the
south,
with
the
mill
district's,
attractive,
streetscape
and
landscaping,
and
public
art
to
the
north.
Another
key
component
was
the
enhancement
in
the
neighborhood
of
two
bus
stops
on
protest,
avenue
and
boise
avenue.
A
Protest,
road
and
boys
avenue
with
a
raised
platform
covered
seating
and
electronic
schedule
board
bsu
rebounded
to
develop
a
three-story
student
housing,
mixed-use
housing
project
with
underground
parking
on
the
former
surface
lot
of
the
manor
apartment.
The
nac
has
now
become
so
successful
that
the
mill
district
became
a
bsu
success
story
where
many
meet
prior
to
and
after
bsu
activities
on
the
corner
of
the
tobacco
connection,
maverick
has
returned
as
an
enlarged
bodega
concept,
along
with
gas,
air
and
electric
charging
stations.
The
identity
building
has
redesigned
its
first
floor.
A
Expanding
the
mill,
district's
commercial
offerings
provide
a
salon
and
bike
repair
shop.
Now
the
eagle
point
apartments
are
considered
replacing
surface
parking
beyond
the
bodega
and
underground
park
in
another
mixed
use.
Building
what
a
success
story.
The
middle
district
is
thanks
to
the
mayor
and
city
council,
pausing
in
2021
and
encouraging
all
parties
to
prepare
a
concept
plan
and
work
together
on
this
successful
mixed
use.
Nac
now
people
stroll
the
shops,
landscape,
streets
and
gardens
of
the
mill
district
enjoying
the
positive
impacts
of
nature,
living
exercise,
socializing
and
well-being.
E
Mayor,
yes,
go
ahead,
hey
john!
I
got
both
of
your
letters.
I
appreciate
you
sending
those
my
way,
I'm
glad
that
I
came
in
this
morning
so
that
I
could
read
both
of
those.
I
wasn't
excited
to
hear
about
that
competing
bike
shop,
a
couple
blocks
from
bvp,
but
that's
all
right.
I
know
that
you've
lived
in
your
space
for
a
while
right
up
above
and
I'm
wondering
if
you
know
the
bub
canal-
that's
that's
below!
A
The
bub
canal,
it's
called
drain
d.
It's
been
unfortunate
that
it's
been
called
a
drain.
It
seasonally
it
gets
a
lot
more
water
in
the
spring
summer
months,
so
slows
down
in
the
winter.
But
that
is
what
I'm
starting
to
call
the
anne
morrison
canal,
because
that
goes
under
capitol
boulevard
and
then
flows
through
into
that
kind
of
wildland
area
over
in
anne
morrison
park
into
the
boise
river.
So
it
is
a
continually
moving
stream,
especially
in
the
spring
summer,
fall
months.
E
A
Has
it
always
been
covered
right
by
big,
so
I
went
back
and
looked
at
the
apartments
on
the
other
side
of
protest.
It's
open
on
that
side,
but
it
goes
underground
under
protest,
road
and
then
goes
under
or
big
judge
is,
but
then
it
reappears
right
at
the
border
there
when
the
writing
ball
plays
apartments
and
meanders
through
there
and
then
goes
through
wild
duck
and
goes
on
and
then
crosses
over
under
boise
avenue.
A
So
it's
a
piece
of
the
that's
the
one
of
the
primary
reasons
that
I'm
opposed
to
this
current
project
is
that
we're
giving
up
the
wildlife?
Just
last
week
I
had
like
nine
deer
in
the
yard
get
all
sorts
of
wildlife
on
the
bench.
I
wrote
you
an
article
earlier
about
the
need
to
do
a
plan
and
protect
our
book
bench
rims
and
slopes.
There's
some
terrific
topography
there,
terrific
sites
for
enjoyment,
so
I
just
hate
to
give
up
that
canal
lose
our
affordable
housing,
this
god
swiss
idea.

The
council's
letter
of
revised
findings
dated
october
14th
states
that
the
rezone
request
does
not
comply
with
the
city's
rezone
criteria.
The
ro
zone
is
designed
to
provide
a
buffer
between
the
high
intensity,
commercial
use
and
high
density
residential
use.
The
subject
property
is
located
adjacent
to
low
and
medium
density.
Residential
areas,
allowing
a
project
this
intense
in
direct
proximity
to
single-family
homes
would
set
a
dangerous
precedent
for
boise's
r1
zoned
areas.
Y
The
letter
also
mentions
that
the
rezone
and
project
do
not
comply
with
blueprint,
boise's,
mixed-use
vision
for
this
intersection.
It
still
doesn't
120
400
square
foot,
coffee
shop,
space
and
a
400
547
bed
student
housing
project
do
not
a
mixed-use
center
make
in
a
nutshell.
This
project
has
not
significantly
changed
since
the
iteration
you
denied
last
fall.
It's
still
a
private
dormitory
plot
down
next
to
a
long
established,
neighborhood
of
much
lower
density
as
an
active
neighborhood
participant
on
zoning
issues
and
applications
for
25
years.
Y
I'd
like
to
comment
briefly
on
the
process
this
application
has
followed.
I
understood
that
applicants
had
to
wait
a
year
after
denial
by
the
city
before
resubmitting
the
same
project.
I
am
just
astonished
that
planning
allowed
this
application.
This
new
application
to
be
submitted.
It
seems
to
me
the
application
should
have
been
rejected
at
the
front.
Y
Counter
neighbors,
who
passionately
and
eloquently
testified
against
this
project
last
year,
probably
thought
they
could
relax
now
and
the
city
might
even
initiate
a
charette
process
to
develop
some
ideas
for
these
parcels
that
better
fit
the
mixed-use
vision
for
it,
embodied
in
blueprint
boise
instead,
barely
two
months
after
your
denial
neighbors
were
compelled
if
they
still
have
the
energy
and
will
to
mobilize
to
oppose
this.
Nearly
identical
so-called
new
project
people
get
tired.
They
move
away.
They
give
up.
Y
Z
Oh
really
well,
thank
you
see
what
homeowners
can
do
on
their
own
without
somebody
from
never
mind.
I
won't
do
that.
Look
I
just
want
to
speak
briefly
to
the
education
side
of
things.
A
lot
of
assumptions
about
that
in
the
1990s
massive
open
online
courses
were
predicted
to
be
the
mainline
future
of
higher
education,
to
borrow
a
line
from
one
of
my
students
that
was
so
last
century.
Z
Then.
Two
weeks
ago,
google
announced
its
plans
to
disrupt
higher
ed
through
massive
distributed
online
courses.
I'm
often
tempted
to
reply
that
many
remarks
are
so
last.
Second,
as
the
reality
of
shrinking
needs
for
actual
student
housing,
apart
from
where
people
in
general
live
is
about
bank
accounts,
so
whether
your
family
went
to
bsu
once
upon
a
time
whether
you
went
to
bsu
or
are
going
there
now,
none
of
these
experiences
alone
is
enough
to
decide
in
favor
of
more
student
housing
outside
of
existing
bsu
boundaries.
Z
The
p
and
z
commission
revealed
no
knowledge
circulating
about
student
populations
going
forward
as
a
full-time
academic,
whose
field
is
the
history
of
media
and
communication.
I've
used
and
taught
with
technology
across
continents
while
on
fulbrights
and
international
guest
profs
last
century,
and
this
one
boise
students
would
drink
morning
coffee
on
camera.
While
we
were
ending
the
day
in
the
seminar
across
the
pond,
the
pandemic
since
then
has
revealed
major
cracks
in
higher
education
in
relation
to
growth.
Z
Z
So
if
bsu
and
developers
think
will
be
able
to
buck
the
shrinking
campus,
then
I
think
bsu
should
require
students
to
try
some
other
things
like
and
invest
in
other
things
like
satellites
as
one
of
your
earlier
letters
said,
satellites
with
shuttles,
perhaps
to
campus.
Z
In
any
event,
it's
irrelevant,
but
even
more
costly
beyond
student
housing
to
have
a
plan
to
build
big
for
what's
still
essentially
a
monoculture,
and
that
I
take
it
was
a
big
piece
of
your
rejection.
Last
time
around.
I
don't
buy
the
argument
that
this
is
multi-use
housing
or
a
neighborhood
activity
center
and
I
certainly
don't
buy
the
subtext
that
more
students
are
coming.
Look
out,
that's
a
question
to
be
asked
of
researchers
in
this
field.
So
I
thank
you
for
your
time
and
it's
really
good
to
see
you
all
again.
AA
AA
We
are,
I
think,
maybe
just
I
will
speak
unless
my
wife
says
otherwise.
Okay,.
AA
I
hope
you
all
are
doing
well.
I
just
want
to
say
something
that
is
really.
I
don't
think
in
general.
Neighborhood
is
opposed
to
development
on
this
lot.
It's
the
right
development
and-
and
I
I
strongly
believe
that
great
neighborhoods
are
complete
and
host
mixed
uses
that
support
our
daily
lives.
AA
I
think
they
should
be
diverse,
compact
connected
both
from
not
only
a
walkability
bikeable.
You
know
perspective,
but
also
from
a
social
perspective
and
when
a
forced
monoculture
really
on
four
corners
of
an
intersection
that
is
adjacent
to
neighborhoods.
AA
It
really
limits
that
ability
to
interact,
especially
when
there
is
no
opportunity,
if
you
think
about
it,
the
future
plan
for
boise
state
is
to
build
some
additional
housing
across
the
street
they're
not
going
to
have
services.
You
have
this,
this
building,
550
students,
you
have
identity,
300
students,
you
have
eagle
point.
These
are
all
high
density,
residential
areas
or
you
know,
apartment
areas
without
the
services
that
would
lead
to
creating
a
culture
that
is
really
convivial,
dynamic,
diverse
complex,
I
mean
we
have
a
huge
opportunity
here
to
create
something
special.
AA
So
that's
really
all
I
I
have
to
say
I
I
think
we're
really
missing
an
opportunity
here
to
do
something
truly
special.
AA
C
M
I
think
I
think
what
we're
really
looking
for
is
just
the
more
diverse
housing
not
just
strictly
and
primarily,
student
housing.
We
have
such
a
wonderful
neighborhood
up
here
down
there.
We
are
separated
by
the
50-foot
drop,
but
that's
ground
level.
Once
this
project
is
finished,
it's
actually
above
our
lower
property
line.
We,
what
happens
down
there
is
in
our
backyard.
We
love
our
neighbors.
Now
we
love
college
students.
We
love
professors
couples.
M
AB
Okay,
hi
hi.
We
can
see
and
hear
you,
okay,
good
lori
de
cara7154
west
state
street
number
148.
Here
we
are
one
year
later
looking
at
version
2.0
of
this
proposal.
AB
We
are
in
the
midst
of
a
nationwide
housing,
affordability,
crisis,
idaho,
just
made
the
new
york
times
for
having
the
highest
rent
increase
in
the
country
12
over
one
year
during
a
pandemic
and
with
record
unemployment.
We
can't
build
our
way
out
of
a
housing
crisis
when
speculators
destabilize
our
housing
markets.
AB
We
all
pay
a
high
price
in
lost
productivity,
stress
related
illness,
hospital
visits
and
public
services
to
compensate
for
the
loss
of
community
when
a
neighborhood
is
erased
when
outside
private
equity,
like
cdg,
operates,
boise
rental
market
by
remote
control
that
rent
stream
is
siphoned
out
of
boise's
economy
and
sent
to
st
louis
or
wherever
the
corporation
and
or
its
shareholders
are
based.
In
this
case,
approximately
four
million
dollars
a
year
that
would
otherwise
circulate
through
local
businesses
would
be
lost
to
our
from
our
economy.
AB
When
proposed
development
requires
an
amendment
of
the
zoning
ordinance
law,
it
is
boise's
responsibility
to
drive
a
hard
bargain
in
the
public's
interest,
in
this
case,
affordable
housing
in
exchange
for
allowing
more
density
for
a
developer,
particularly
in
the
scenario
where
the
development
demolitions,
25,
sound,
habitable
and
naturally
occurring
affordable
units.
According
to
boise
zoning
code,
rezones
should
only
be
granted
if
it's
in
the
public,
good
quote,
is
in
the
best
interest
of
the
public
convenience
and
general
welfare
being
a
strong
property
right.
AB
State,
idaho
supreme
court
has
upheld
the
power
of
land
use
agencies
to
maintain
existing
zoning,
so
the
city
is
starting
from
a
sound
bargaining
position
to
get
an
exaction.
There
is
legal
precedent
from
right
here
in
the
treasure
valley,
as
echd
regularly
uses
exactions
with
developers
to
get
public
facilities.
AB
Likewise,
the
city
should
hold
firm
on
a
no
net
loss
of
affordable
housing
policy
and
make
the
following
three
requirements:
a
one-for-one
replacement
of
affordable
housing,
so
25
units
are
priced
for
someone
making
under
60
ami
or
double
the
minimum
wage
for
30
years,
not
5,
not
15,
but
30..
A
relocation
package
for
all
right
and
bob
place
residents
to
counter
the
destabilizing
impacts
of
being
displaced
and
the
irreplaceable
loss
of
their
community
and
support
system.
AB
The
two-bedroom
units
with
doors
look
like
they
are
set
up
to
be
airbnb
units.
So
the
council
should
consider
prohibiting
reynolds
of
less
than
six
months
to
discourage
short-term
rentals
in
the
units
where
the
city
has
played
a
role
in
incentivizing,
gentrification
and
desire
for
developers
to
build
high-end
housing.
The
city
needs
to
put
its
finger
on
the
scale
for
housing
that
is
chronically
under
produced,
that
which
is
zero
to
sixty
percent
ami
or
housing,
which
is
affordable
for
people
making
less
than
twenty
dollars
an
hour.
Where
will
boise
draw
the
line?
AB
AB
J
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
council
persons.
My
name
is
ted
rithman.
I
reside
at
2001,
west
boise
avenue,
apartment
number,
16.,
I'm
a
longtime
resident
of
the
city.
I've
lived
here
about
35
years
in
this
in
this
neighborhood,
particularly
I've
lived
here
like
32
years,
went
to
bsu.
J
As
a
matter
of
fact,
I
even
was
at
bsu,
but
the
same
time
as
council
person
sanchez
at
one
point.
For
me
like
this,
this
project
needs
to
be
put
on
hold.
J
It
does
not
support
the
neighborhood
and
it's
mostly
it's
pretty
much
all
for
students.
Now
I've
gone
to
bsu.
I
understand
they
might
need
housing,
but
if
that
is
indeed
the
case,
bsu
has
just
ripped
up
part
of
the
land
that
they
own
to
build
a
stadium.
If
they're
gonna,
if
they
say
they
need
a
stadium,
I
say
that
they
need
more
housing.
They
could
use
that
area
to
build
at
least
maybe
two
or
three
student
dorms.
J
For
me,
much,
like
mr
care
had
pointed
out
no
relocation
packages
like
it's
nice,
it's
a
nice
little
offer,
but
if
you're
it's
one
thing,
if
you
choose
to
move
because
you
found
a
better
job,
you
found
a
better
neighborhood
to
live
in.
That's
one
thing,
but
when
you're
being
forced
out-
and
then
someone
says-
oh,
hey,
here's
a
consolation
prize.
Don't
get
me
wrong!
It's
nice,
but
for
me
means
I
have
to
move
someplace
else
and
especially
with
the
lack
of
transportation
at
my
fingertips.
J
If
I
have
to
move
it
means
I
end
up
moving
out
of
the
city
or
out
of
the
state,
which
means
I
have
to
pretty
much
find
a
new
job.
Chances
of
me
finishing
up.
My
my
degree
at
bsu
is
pretty
much
not
going
to
happen
because
I,
especially
if
I
ended
up
in
oregon
for
say,
I'd
end
up
having
to
pay
out-of-state
tuition.
J
It
makes
no
sense
to
have
this
project
back
less
than
what
two
months
after
sorry,
five
months
after
city
council
had
that
denied
it
there's
been
been
very
minimal
changes.
If
any-
and
I
agree
with
what
someone
said-
they're-
not
nothing
more
than
just
token
changes
as
if
they're
trying
to
mark
off
boxes
to
please
everyone,
I
would
strongly
ask
that
this
be
denied.
Thank
you.
C
B
C
Okay,
I'm
going
to
ask
that
that
we
move
into
rebuttal
next
to
the
applicant.
L
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
members
of
the
council,
deborah
nelson
for
the
applicant
to
to
address
some
of
the
comments
we've
heard,
starting
with
a
representative
of
the
depot
bench,
neighborhood
association.
L
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
the
applicant
did
reach
out
to
them,
along
with
the
southeast
neighborhood
association
and
their
initial
contact,
the
depot
bench
neighborhood
association
said
they
would
send
a
member
to
the
cena
meeting
to
participate
there
and
the
applicant
has
had
many
meetings
with
the
senior
representatives,
so
they
certainly
have
had
a
lot
of
outreach
with
with
the
neighbors
and
including
on
mesa
vista
and
with
the
tenants
as
well
bus
routes.
L
The
there
was
a
comment
that
there's
only
one
bus
route
in
front
of
the
site.
It's
great
that
there
is
a
bus
stop
directly
in
front
of
the
site
that
will
be
added
and
in
addition
to
that,
there
are
four
routes
within
a
half
mile
and
even
much
closer
that
go
downtown
to
nampa
meridian
to
caldwell
and
out
to
harris
ranch.
L
So
you
can
really
get
anywhere
from
a
short
walk
from
this
location.
So
it's
a
great
transit
location.
There's
there's
comments
about
the
unit
mix
and
really
the
opponents.
I
think
you
know
slight
the
product
project
by
calling
this
a
dormitory.
L
The
the
project
serves
the
need
of
an
unmet
need
for
students
that
are
on
bsu's
campus,
that
don't
have
enough
housing
on
campus
and
those
four
and
five
bedroom
units
are
ideal
for
pulling
those
students
that
are
not
finding
on-site
camp
on
campus
housing
that
are
moving
into
the
southeast
boise
neighborhood
instead
and
providing
them
a
home
where
they
can
come
into
and
live
in
an
apartment
building
that
is
suited
for
their
needs,
that's
tailored
to
their
needs.
L
That
gives
them
those
alternative
transportation
options
and
that
places
them
right
next
to
campus,
where
they
can
walk
and
get
out
of
their
cars.
These
are
also
the
same
bedroom
units
that
are
the
most
affordable
in
the
project
and
provide
a
living
environment,
that's
desired
by
a
lot
of
students.
In
addition,
there's
been
significant
changes
to
the
design
of
the
building,
to
really
tailor
it
to
suit
more
young
professionals
and
university
workers
and
others
that
may
be
looking
for
this
type
of
housing,
but
want
the
smaller
format.
L
Unit
type
and
there's
42
of
the
units
in
the
building
serve
those
folks,
and
so
that's
a
significant
number.
That's
74
of
the
units
out
of
175.,
so
there
and
there's
been
a
lot
of
movement,
of
course,
with
the
exterior
access
that's
going
to
be
tailored
to
a
different
type
of
user.
That's
interested
in
this
space.
L
I
think
there's
also
been
a
lot
of
discussion
about
commercial,
and
I
appreciate
the
comments
and
questions
from
the
council
on
that,
because
I
think
you're
you
know
the
you're
trying
to
find
that
right
balance
of
well.
What
is
what
makes
sense
for
this
location-
and
you
know
I
think,
as
everyone
comments
there's-
there
are
trade-offs
with
commercial.
Some
of
the
opponents
of
the
project
just
say:
no,
it
should
be
more
commercial,
but
they're
also
worried
about
traffic,
and
commercial,
of
course
generates
more
traffic
than
residential.
L
It
also
requires
more
surface
parking,
particularly
in
these
you
know,
non-downtown
commercial
locations,
you
create
a
destination
commercial
location.
You
have
to
provide
a
lot
of
surface
parking
and
that's
part
of
why
the
size
of
this
activity
center
isn't
well
suited
for
that
kind
of
bound
crossing
style.
That
people
are
describing.
L
You
know
we've
squeezed
in
as
many
surface
parking
spaces
as
we
can
to
increase
that
retail
to
offer
that
alternative
option
for
you
to
consider.
But
again
that's
a
trade-off.
You
have
to
consider
with
the
commercial
and
then
finally,
I
think
the
council
and
others
have
touched
on
this-
that
you
it
has
to
be
viable
and-
and
it
we're
very
focused
on
that,
because
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
going
to
have
a
vacant
corner.
We
want
to
really
have
this,
be
very
vibrant.
L
I
think
the
same
concern
that
you
have-
and
you
know,
commissioner
blanchard
at
the
pnc.
I
thought
said
this
very
well
when
he
was
saying
he
just
didn't
think
that
this
was
a
viable
neighborhood
activity
center.
He
looked
at
the
existing
commercial
businesses
along
boise
avenue
and
believe
that
they
were
struggling.
L
He
specifically
said
you
know
you
could
pick
5
000
square
feet
and
he
didn't
think
that
people
would
come
to
it.
So
I
and-
and
the
reason
is
I
think
he
pointed
to
the
existing
commercial-
that's
very
close
out
on
vista
and
broadway
and
that
that's
where
people
are
going
to
go
for
their
destination
commercial.
So
what
makes
sense
here
is
a
small
scale
retail
and
that's
what
we've
proposed.
L
That's,
what's
called
for
in
your
comprehensive
plan
for
this
for
this
location
and
that's
what
we've
proposed.
We
think
that
that
23.75
square
foot
makes
sense,
but
certainly
have
appreciate
that
if
the
council
thinks
that
more
than
that
is
viable
here,
what
we
can
make
work
is
the
3,
500
and
so
and
and
and
certainly
are
happy
to
do-
that
if
that's
the
council's
preference,
you
know
in
the
end,
there
is
a
there
is
more
housing.
L
That's
needed
both
in
this
neighborhood
and
throughout
the
city,
and
building
more
housing
does
help.
The
city
address
the
housing
crisis,
and
this
is
just
a
great
location
for
it.
At
the
intersection
of
these
two
arterials
along
a
transit
line
in
this
designation
that
calls
for
high
density,
residential
adjacent
to
the
bsu
campus
and
so
close
to
so
many
amenities
where
people
can
really
get
out
of
their
cars,
and
this
project
reflects
so
many
great
design
principles.
L
Smart
growth
principles,
but
really
locating
it
right
next
to
the
bsu
campus,
where,
where
students
and
bsu
employees
can
walk,
is
the
best
feature
it
has
and
that's
why
this
location
is
so
important
and
so
perfect
for
this
project
and
we
we
asked
for
your
support
and
I
would
stand
for
any
more
questions.
You
have.
E
C
E
L
Open
mayor
council,
council
member
kelly
burton
no,
the
the
dream
will
be
relocated.
I
mean
currently
that's.
L
Can
you
hear
me
now
is
that
better
yup
you're
back
to
where
you
were?
Thank
you
so
the
the
drain
currently
is
open,
but
it's
running
under
the
ryden
bar
apartment
building,
something
that
could
not
be
approved
today.
The
buildings
are
crumbling
into
that
drain,
and
so
it's
not
a
current
safe,
open
feature,
and
so
we
will
be
relocating
that
it
won't
be
under
buildings.
L
It
will
be
covered,
though,
that
is
the
desire
of
the
drainage
district,
and
that
is
the
plan
that
they
have
approved
is
to
relocate
it
and
to
bury
it,
it
creates
efficiency
for
them
and
their
water
flows
it's
safer,
and
so
that
is
their
desire.
They
did
not
support
it
being
open
in
the
current
location
that
it
is
the
it
does
have
different
portions
of
it.
As
you
noted
council,
member
hallie
burton
that
have
been
buried
over
time
to
increase
that
efficiency
as
the
properties
have
developed
around
it.
E
And
metamer
a
couple
follow-ups,
yes,
and
so
that
I'm
guessing
that
area
that
extended
or
increased
setback
that
you
have
from
the
hill
is
probably
where
that
runs
under.
Is
that
correct.
E
Okay,
couple
couple
more
so
if
the
retail
space
was
expanded
to
3
500
and
potentially
this
is
a
question
for
staff.
Does
that
increase
the
requirement
for
on-street
parking
or
is
the
amount
of
on-street
parking
available
still
sufficient
for
that
increase?.
K
E
L
L
Over
the
laptop
around
a
little
bit
yeah,
so
yes,
when
we
looked
at
what
could
be
feasible
there,
we
evaluated
how
much
surface
parking
would
have
to
be
available
for
the
additional
square
feet
of
retail,
and
then
we
had
to
squeeze
in
those
parking
spaces,
and
so
we
were
able
to
get
12
there
on
that
surface
upper
lot,
which
would.
L
Up
to
3
500
square
feet
of
retail,
and
so
we
were
able
to
fit
that
that
did
cause
us
to
lose
the
the
one
of
those
frontage
units,
because
that
takes
up
the
frontage.
E
Great
and
then
two
two
more
questions
and
then
I'll
take
a
break
one
deborah.
I
think
that
you
can
answer
this.
The
the
exterior
bike
parking
that
you
have
off
the
back
is
any
of
that
planned
on
being
covered
and
what
what's
your
inv
like?
How
do
you
envision
that
being
used?
Is
that
for
guests
is
that
for
people
who
are
staying
there?
What's
the
use
of
the
bike
parking
in
back
and
are
you
planning
on
having
it
covered.
L
E
Is
he
available
for
one
question?
Yes,
absolutely.
E
Yeah,
thank
you
so
much
so.
My
final
question
is
you
brought
something
up
earlier
and
I
think
it
was
a
quote:
if
anyone
would
qualify,
then
they
would
have
availability
to
these
apartments.
So
it's
not
supposed
to
be
student.
Only
anybody
who
actually
wanted
to
apply
and
qualified
would
be
able
to
to
use
or
to
rent
out
the
apartments
did
I
get
that
get
that
right.
O
That's
a
great
question:
I
want
to
give
you
an
honest
answer.
It's
something
we
haven't
considered.
I
would
say
that
I
think
I'm
legally
obligated
potentially,
but
it's
it's.
If
if
they
qualify
based
on
income-
and
they
have
a
voucher,
I
would
say
we
would
be
100
open
to
it.
But
there's
you
know
requirements,
you
know
section,
8,
housing
and,
and
you
know,
affordable
housing
isn't
something
that
we
have
a
lot
of
expertise
in
you
know
we're.
O
So
I
don't
want
to
give
you
an
answer
and
say
no
when
I'm
legally
required
to,
but
I
would
say
that
if,
if
we,
if
we
aren't
legally
restricted
and
we're
allowed
to,
I
would
don't
think
it's
an
issue,
but
it's
just
something:
we've
never
had
to
deal
with
I'll.
I
just
that's.
E
My
honest
answer,
yep
and
maybe
just
to
clarify-
I
don't
know
that
there's
any
actual
legal
restrictions.
I
think
that
sometimes
there's
a
little
extra
work
that
takes
place
on
the
property
manager.
In
the
end,
the
cash
is
cash.
You
know
it
comes
from
a
combination
of
potentially
a
person's
personal
income,
and
you
know
some
government
funding
as
well,
but
it's
the
same
amount
of
money
that
anybody
else
would
be
running.
E
I
don't
know
that
there's
a
requirement,
but
I
was
just
curious
if
there
was
any
intention
or
thoughts
to
that,
as
I
thought
that
there
may
be
some
people
currently
living
there
who
who
might
qualify.
O
Can
you
hear
me
now
yep
yeah?
Currently
there
is,
there
are
no
section
8
vouchers,
tenants
that
have
any
subsidies
right
now
on
the
property,
and
you
know
we
have
the
10
affordable
units
that
will
be
allowing
you
know
the
age
or
income
restricted
individuals
to
occupy.
O
D
Ahead.
Thank
you
a
couple
of
questions.
My
first
question
really
has
to
do
with
the
unit
mix
the
original
proposal.
Well,
you,
the
42
of
the
unit
count,
is,
is
one
or
two
bedroom
in
the
original
proposal.
It
was
over
50
percent.
O
There
were
a
lot
of
revisions
that
we
did
when
we
you
know
one.
We
pulled
the
building
back
another
20
to
30
feet.
It's.
C
C
C
O
Yeah,
so
there
were
some
modifications
overall
to
the
building.
I
think
there
really
hasn't
when
we
presented
our
project.
Previously
there
was
a
good
mix
of
of
units,
and
I
think
there
was
potentially
a
misunderstanding
as
it
relates
to
how
we
market
and
who
is
allowed
to
live
or
who,
who
would
be
living
in
our
projects,
all
of
our
projects.
We
typically
always,
you
know,
have
a
good
mix
of
units
between
you
know
smaller
what
we
call
smaller
format
and
larger
format.
O
So
I
think
there
was
a
potential
misunderstanding
of
who
would
be
in
our
buildings
in
sort
of
the
first
round.
I
think
this
is
more
of
you
know
what
we
spent
today,
maybe
just
trying
to
educate
everybody,
what
our
intent
was
and
how
we
look
at
student,
housing
and
market
rate
housing
and
there's
a
lot
of
student
housing
focused
developers
that
don't
do
any
market
rate
and
you'll
see
in
most
of
their
projects.
O
They
will
have
anywhere
from
90
to
100
percent,
all
four
bedroom
and
five
bedroom
units,
not
really
accommodating
more
of
the
market
rate
type
units.
That's
not
how
we
approach
this.
We
do
see.
You
know
undergrads
living
in
a
one
bedroom
and
sometimes
in
a
two
bedroom,
but
it's
definitely
more
expensive.
O
So
I
think
the
overall
change
in
the
mix
was
more
of
of
us.
Maintaining
you
know
size,
and
you
know
financial
feasibility,
but
still
offering
what
we
believe
to
be
is
a
diverse
unit
mix
that
would
accommodate
both.
You
know
undergraduates
in
the
larger
formats,
and
you
know,
graduates,
professors,
urban
dwellers
in
the
smaller
unit
mix
or
units
studios
ones,
twos.
D
It
does
thank
you.
What
about
short-term
rentals?
Do
you
ever
allow
short-term
rentals
in
your
projects.
O
AC
O
Yeah,
absolutely
I'm
not
an
accessibility
expert,
but
there's
a
lot
of
accessibility
requirements
in
the
building
code
that
allow
that
require
a
number
of
our
units
to
be
designed
from
an
accessible
perspective.
You
know,
depending
on
the
state,
all
of
the
you
know
so
are
our
building
will
be
ada
accessible?
O
I
don't
know
exactly
how
many
units
will
be
will
be
accessible,
but
it's
it's
all
dictated
by
building
code
and
there's
definitely
a
significant
amount
of
accessible
units
within
our
project.
AC
Just
to
follow
up,
madam
mayor,
so
someone
who
wants
to
live
on
the
upper
level,
there
will
be
available
units
for
somebody
who
wants
to
live
on
the
upper
level.
Yeah.
O
Absolutely
just
like
affordable
housing.
We
can't
really
discriminate
on
where
we
locate
the
units
they
have
to
be
randomized
throughout
the
project.
So
all
of
our
you
know,
access
to
the
building
entrances
elevators
units
on
certain
floors
are,
you
know,
ada
compliant.
AC
I
mean
it
means
that,
and
I'm
sure
we've
all
had
this
experience
where
you
know,
maybe
you
hurt
your
hand
or
you
wrenched,
your
your
your
ankle
and
and
thank
goodness,
there's
universal
design,
because
it
means
that
whoever
designed
this
space,
it's
for
everyone
to
use,
you
don't
have
to
be
somebody
who
uses
a
wheelchair
on
a
regular
basis.
That
sort
of
thing.
O
Yeah,
if
it's
we,
I
would
say
that
we
have
a
lot
of
accessible
units
that
are
occupied
by
individuals
that
don't
specifically
need
those
units
to
be
accessible
and
they're.
They
live
very
well,
even
though
they're
they're,
designed
to
be
accessibly
accessed
from
someone
who
doesn't
particularly
particularly
need
those.
C
Worry
about
it,
it's
you
know,
we've
all
gotten
used
to
having
the
occasional
snafu
snafus
and
these
things
anybody
else.
C
D
Thank
you,
so
I'm
sure
staff
looked
at
the
new
proposal
compared
it
to
the
old
one
and
made
a
determination
that
there
was
substantial
differences
in
order
to
accept
it.
I
wonder
if
you
could
just
go
through
those.
K
Madam
mayor
council,
president
clegg,
yes,
the
the
the
project
definitely
was
different
according
to
our
view.
As
far
as
the
tree
mitigation
proposal,
the
tenant
assistance
package,
as
well
as
the
affordable
housing
package,
the
design,
the
access
points,
they
were
actually
have
a
slide.
I
don't
matt.
Can
you
share
my
screen.
K
There,
it
is
of
just
the
number
just
the
different
comparisons
between
the
two
projects
and
that
there
certainly
were-
and
there
are
differences
code-
also
says
that
no
application
that
has
been
denied
shall
be
resubmitted
in
that
substantially
same
form
in
less
than
a
year
year's
time.
The
original
application
was
submitted
in
october
of
2019,
and
this
application
before
use
was
submitted
in
december
of.
U
Madam
mayor,
yes,
I
would
like
to
make
a
motion
that
we
approve
car
20-25,
cdg
acquisitions,
llc
1909
in
2001,
west
boise
avenue,
a
rezone
of
3.3
acres
from
c1d
to
r2
and
r2
to
rodda.
G
U
Discuss
thank
you.
I
just
want
to
thank
the
developer
for
really
coming
back
with
a
project
that
reflected
so
many
of
our
concerns.
I
really
do
think
it
activates
the
street
level
and
you
know,
having
attended
boise
state.
I
always
sort
of
wondered:
where
would
the
university
village
be
if
boise
state
had
one
and
it's
not
at
this
corner?
U
U
It
will
have
some
commercial.
I
think
that
adding
that
crossing
at
joyce
is
a
pretty
big
deal.
That'll
add
a
lot
of
safety
to
the
project
and
the
detached
sidewalks.
If
we're
able
to
get
some
better
bike
facilities,
that'll
be
a
definite
add
to
this
too.
So
I
wanna
thank
again
the
developer
for
taking
everything
into
account.
I
know
it's
got
to
be
a
little
bit
frustrating
to
have
six
people
with
various
opinions
on
what
needs
to
happen
with
the
project,
but
I
think
you've
done
a
great.
F
Yeah,
thank
you.
I
I'll
be
supporting
the
motion.
F
I
I've
been
extremely
impressed
with
the
level
of
redesign
and
changes
the
developers
made
to
the
project
since
the
last
time
we've
seen
it
and
especially
in
ensuring
that
it
stays
at
no
more
than
three
levels,
and
I
appreciated
the
setback,
the
the
additional
bike
parking
and
you
know
I
think
it's
it's
in
a
good
location,
and
it's
right
there
on
on
the
campus,
I'm
a
bsu
graduate
as
well
lived
in
towers,
residence
hall
and
certainly
understand
the
the
benefits
of
having
close
access
to
your
school
and
classrooms.
F
When
you
don't
have
a
vehicle,
I
would
have
been
using
one
of
those
bike
parking
spots
as
well,
and
I
I
appreciate
the
additional
retail
which,
as
council
member
weddings
just
said,
I
I
also
don't
think
it
was,
would
turn
into
a
thriving
area
like
some
might
imagine,
but
having
some
there
will
certainly
help
benefit
those
that
are
living
in
the
facility
and
around
and
so
it'll
turn
into
a
great
meeting
location
and
serve
as
a
real
asset.
I
think,
in
the
long
run,
we'll
look
back
at
this
as
a
good
decision.
D
Thank
you.
I
I
am
going
to
support
the
motion
tonight.
If
the
maker
of
the
motion
and
the
secondary
will
consider
a
couple
of
amendments,
one
the
applicant
offered
to
increase
the
caliper
inches
of
tree
mitigation
in
condition
g
from
176
to
250
and
adding
a
condition
h.
That
would
require
the
rent
for
the
parking
to
be
a
separate
charge
from
the
living
space.
D
If
I
could
address
the
project,
this
isn't
a
perfect
project.
You
know
I.
I
appreciate
that
the
neighborhood
would
like
us
to
direct
a
two
private
parties
to
live
a
different
dream
for
their
land
than
these
private
parties
have
for
that
land,
and
there
are
a
lot
of
times
I
wish
I
could
do
that.
I
haven't
figured
out
how
I
have
the
power
to
do
that.
D
D
D
Frankly,
it
was
a
better
mix
of
units
before,
but
in
return
for
that
change,
the
height
exception
was
taken
away
and
the
units
that
do
exist
that
are
different
are
walkout
units
which
didn't
exist
before
and
those
units
do
rent
to
a
different
different
person.
They
attract
a
different
person,
and
so
I
think
that.
D
Change,
one
of
the
other
things
I
was
concerned
about
was
the
streetscape
at
a
town
center.
I
think
the
developer
did
what
they
could
to
meet
meet
those
streetscape
standards.
I
think
achd
still
has
some
work
to
do
to
live
up
to
their
own
livable
streets
guide
and
what
this
calls
for
at
this
corner
and
to
the
neighborhood's
contention
that
this
will
set
the
rest
of
time,
the
the
corner
for
the
rest
of
time.
D
I
would
note
that
maverick
is
not
dissimilar
to
the
building
across
the
street,
which
is
now
a
smoke
connection,
and
one
would
hope
that
one
at
some
point
that
that
building
will
redevelop-
and
it
frankly
doesn't
make
much
sense
on
that
corner
for
there
to
be
much
else
than
retail,
and
so
I
do
see
opportunity
if
the
increase
in
density,
the
increase
in
intensity
at
this
corner
proves
to.
D
Create
a
market
for
additional
retail
that
that
there
is
an
opportunity
for
that.
I
would
note
that
the
site
that
big
judds
is
on
could
redevelop,
hopefully
with
big
judds
and
something
else
over
time,
and
you
know
these
these
things
are
not
set
in
stone.
I
know
that
development
looks
like
something
that
is
going
to
be
there
forever.
D
The
development
that
is
there
today
was
there
for
a
lot
of
years.
It's
a
lovely
development.
I
don't
think
anyone
can
argue
with
that.
I
don't
own
it,
so
I
can't
keep
it
what
it
is
today
and
so
all
in
all,
given
the
shortage
of
housing
in
this
market,
given
the
voluntary
offer
by
the
developer
to
provide
both
affordable
units
in
this
development
and
assistance
for
relocation.
D
D
G
It
took
me
a
minute
to
chime
in
after
seconding
the
motion.
The
basis
of
my
second
some
of
you
may
recall
that
I
supported
a
previous
version
of
this
project
as
well.
G
G
I
think
it's
lovely
and
nice
that
the
developer
here
has
offered
to
include
affordable
housing
that
doesn't
drive
my
decision.
Frankly,
I
think
it's
incredibly
generous
and
wonderful
that
they
are
providing
assistance
to
the
tenants
who
will
be
displaced
current
residents
there,
that's
the
kind
of
gesture
that
a
good
partner
and
a
good
future
member
of
the
community
makes,
but
that
doesn't
drive
my
decision.
What
what
really
drives
my
decision
to
second,
this
motion
is
that
the
project
that
we're
looking
at
is
consistent
with
our
planning
documents.
G
E
E
Would
love
to
have
seen
3
500
square
feet
there
to
make
room
for
some
of
the
neighbors
vision,
because
I
do
think
that
they
know
what
the
needs
are
and
what
they
would
like
to
use.
It's
not
a
deal
breaker
for
me
because
I
think,
council
president
clay
brought
up
the
idea
that
it
doesn't
have
to
stay
that
way,
that
there
are
abilities
to
retrofit,
and
I
guess
I
would
encourage
the
developer
to
look
into
that.
E
The
last
thing-
I
guess
I
just
want
to
bring
up-
and
I
was
thinking
about
it
last
night-
on
my
bike-
ride
home,
because
I
was
thinking
about
this
decision
that
we're
going
to
make
tonight
and
it
was
a
lot
about
social
responsibility.
What
is
our
social
responsibility
and
this
developer
came
forward
with
the
proposal
and
attempt
to
assist
the
tenants
in
what
I
believe
is
a
thoughtful
way
that
they
didn't
have
to
do.
E
We
didn't
force
them
to
do
that
they
volunteered
to,
and
I
do
think
that
there
is
some
social
responsibility
in
that,
and
I
think
that
that
is
something
that
should
be
celebrated.
I
would
encourage
them
to
to
look
at
vouchers
as
well,
because
I
think
that
that's
another
aspect
of
social
responsibility
that
really
benefits
you
just
as
much
in
the
long
run
as
the
people
that
you're
offering
it
to,
and
I
think
that
we
as
as
neighbors
you
know,
we
have
a
lot
that
we
can
do
on
our
own.
E
They
get
rooms
in
our
own
houses.
You
know
selling
our
houses
to
somebody
who
might
not
be
able
to
afford
it
and
taking
ten
thousand
dollars
less
or
whatever
it
may
need
to
be,
but
I
do
appreciate
that
offer
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
that's
noted
as
well
I'll
support
the
effort
and
I'll
support
the
motion
with
that
limited
space.
I'd
like
to
see
more,
I
think,
there's
still
a
chance.
We
can
do
it.
AC
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
This
is
so
painful.
I
don't
know
which
neighbor
it
was
that
provided
the
photo
of
that
gorgeous
tree
in
that
beautiful
lush
courtyard.
But
as
council
president
clay
stated
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
preserve
that,
and
that's
that's
tragic.
It's
really
sad
and
as
one
of
the
one
of
the
folks
testifying
who
alluded
to
us
going
to
school
together.
At
the
same
time,
it
was
mr
rithman,
you
know
what
I
still
miss.
AC
I
still
miss
that
row
of
bungalows
on
university
drive,
which
was
our
little
version
of
greek
row
back
in
the
day
and
and
look
what
it
is
now.
It's
filled
with
students.
AC
We
have
student
housing
all
along
university
drive,
so
it
is
painful
that
we
have
to
say
goodbye
to
some
of
the
features
that
are
so
meaningful
to
our
city
and
to
our
neighbors,
but
it
is
especially
painful
to
see
25
units,
affordable
units
lost,
and
I
don't
want
to
support
this,
but
I'm
going
to
because,
as
I
pointed
out,
you
know,
I've
been
here
long
enough.
That
was
my
neighborhood
at
one
point,
I
lived
near
boise
state
for
eight
years,
so
I
100
percent.
AC
You
know
feel
in
my
heart
the
pain
of
seeing
that
change
but,
as
I
have
said
over
the
past,
nearly
four
years
that
I've
served
on
this
council,
I've
been
both.
I've
been
the
interloper,
the
unwelcome
feature
in
a
community,
and
I've
also
had
to
tolerate
other
people
moving
in
and
building
high
and
taking
my
views
away.
So
you
know
part
of
the
reason
that
you
know
last
fall.
I
proposed,
or
I
suggested,
that
this
council
consider
starting
their
council
meetings
with
atlanta.
Acknowledgement
is
for
this
very
reason.
AC
I
know
the
descendants
of
the
original
inhabitants
of
the
boise
valley
and
they
watch
us.
They
watch
us
fight
and
argue
over
who
belongs
where
and
what
should
be
torn
down
and
what
should
go
up
in
its
place,
and
this
is
a
big
reason.
Why?
Because
I
want
us
to
be
grounded
in
the
fact
that
we
do
all
our
business
on
someone
else's
land
that
they
never
seed
it
over,
and
this
is
all
about
legalities,
except
we
don't
acknowledge
that
legality.
AC
We
go
about
it
because
and
we
ignore
it,
so
I
just
wanted
to
put
that
on
record
as
well,
and
I
hope
that
we
will
have
that
discussion
and
revisit
that
at
some
point
this
year.
So,
yes,
reluctantly,
I
will
be
supporting
the
motion
again.
It's
painful.
C
Well,
thank
you
with
that
everybody's
chimed
in
and
I
won't
be
voting
tonight,
but
I
do
want
to
just
say
thank
you
to
everybody
that
joined
us.
It
was
wonderful
to
see
those
of
you.
We
saw
to
hear
from
those
of
you
that
we
just
heard
and
I'd
encourage
everyone.
I
really
really
appreciated
I'm
hearing
from
folks
having
this
conversation
listening
to
council,
but
I'm
just
going
to
encourage
folks
as
we
move
forward.
I
know
we're
going
to
see
so
many
of
you
again
to
think
about
joining
us
here
in
the
council
chambers.
C
It
was
great
to
have
john
but
it'd,
be
so
wonderful
to
see
more
of
you
as
we
work
through
these
really
tough
decisions,
if
it
is,
if
you're
comfortable
doing
it,
and
we
have
a
lot
of
space
between
chairs
it's,
it's
10
feet
between
all
places
and
we
require
masks,
and
it
is
so
lovely
to
see
you
and
to
hear
you
and
we'd
love
to
do
in
the
chambers
as
well.
So
thanks
to
everybody
that
participated
this
evening,
really
appreciate
it.
