From YouTube: City Council Meeting - 6/9/2020
Description
Please visit the following link for information on how to testify during virtual public hearings:
https://www.cityofboise.org/departments/finance-and-administration/city-clerk/virtual-meetings/
A
And,
as
always,
welcome
to
those
who
have
joined
us
on
the
screens
as
well,
this
is
before
we
call
the
meeting
to
order
I'm
going
to
just
say
that
so
people
know
I
am
looking
at
multiple
things.
A
Today,
I've
got
a
zoom
on
so
that
I
know
virtually
which
who
wants
to
testify
so
I'll
be
looking
at
that
I
do
have,
which
I
try
not
to
have,
but
for
the
purposes
of
these
early
days,
I
have
my
phone
here
so
because
there's
a
limited
number
of
people
that
can
come
into
the
room
at
once
and
so
I
will
need
to
know.
If
there
are
people
downstairs,
if
they
can
come
up
and
then
also
we
have
council
members
through
zoom,
as
well
as
the
public.
A
So
I
say
all
this:
to
impress
that
this
is
our
first
hybrid
meeting
post
kovat,
we're
so
happy
to
have
be
able
to
have
some
of
us
back
here
and
to
have
public
I'm
walking
into
the
meetings
again
are
looking
at
how
we
continue
to
provide
additional
access
to
council
meetings
through
the
platforms
that
we've
gotten
used
to
using
over
the
last
couple
months
and
so
I'm
just
going
to
ask
people
for
patience,
not
as
we
as
we
work
through
this
and
when
in.
If
there
are
particular
items
that
are
public
hearing
items.
A
Our
public
hearings
and
citizen
comment
is
restricted
to
the
part
of
the
agenda
that
says
public
hearings
down
at
the
bottom,
and
so,
if
you
were
here
in
person
rather
than
remotely
for
one
of
the
public
hearing,
items
that
have
been
noticed,
you're
welcome
to
come
up
to
the
podium.
We
ask
that
you
wipe
it
down,
see
white,
buf,
podium
and
mic
and
they
need
to
walk
to
the
back
of
the
room
and
then
head
to
the
okay.
A
So
after
you
have
testified,
please
wipe
it
down
and
then
head
to
the
back
of
the
room
so
that
there's
space
for
the
next
person
to
come
up
I
will
hear
first
from
the
for
the
public
hearings,
the
applicants,
the
parties
of
record
people
that
are
here
in
person
for
the
particular
item
and
then
we'll
move
back
to
the
zoom
that
might
have
more
people
waiting
to
testify
on
particular
items
for
the
appeal.
A
C
A
A
D
A
F
A
You
and
next
up
we
have
a
special
business
and
first
off
the
reappointment
of
bill,
vest
gonzales
to
the
airport
commission
for
a
three-year
term.
I
did
see
that
bill
was
here
and
had
his
hand
raised,
couldn't
hear
us,
but
we
hadn't
started
the
meeting,
so
it's
my
hope
that
he
can
hear
us
now
and
I
would
just
like
to
thank
bill
for
his
past
service
on
the
Airport
Commission
and
bill
your
willingness,
your
willingness
to
serve
again,
really
appreciate
it.
Madam.
E
A
Thank
you
and
bill
if
you
I
have
to
go
to
zoom.
If
ille
is
here
wanting
to
say
something,
Amanda
will
make
it
so
that
you're
able
to
speak.
Yes,.
G
Secondly,
I
think
that
the
airport
is
an
economic
engine
for
the
community
and
we
could
sure
use
that
right
now.
So
I
think
that's
that's
that's
another
interest
that
I
have
and
and
finally
I
of
personal
travel,
as
well
as
some
business
travel
and
UBS,
where
I
work
has
probably
two
to
three
investment
people
a
week
coming
in
through
the
airport,
so
we
get
a
lot
of
feedback
that
way
anyway,
for
all
those
reasons,
I'm
excited
to
begin
a
new
term
and
I
appreciate
your
vote
of
confidence.
Thank
you.
A
All
right,
so
next
up
is
the
appointment
of
Ryan
Lee
as
Chief
of
Police,
effective,
July,
1
2020.
Before
this
comes
before
you.
If
all
right
Ryan
is
I'm,
not
sure
how
or
when
we
will
see
him,
but
he
is
oh
there
you
are
Brian
and
Lee
has
joined
us
and
before
it's
before
you
I
just
want
to
say
a
couple
things
I'm
on
this
first
off.
You
know
this
was
a
highly
in
many
ways.
A
An
unusual
process
in,
in
the
same
way
that
we're
in
highly
unusual
times
and
the
search
for
a
new
chief
began
late
last
year
and
in
2019,
which
feels
like
decades
ago,
I'm
sure
for
many
of
us,
and
then
we
really
picked
it
up
this
winter.
In
2020
we
had
a
group
that
was,
you
know,
looked
at
a
wide
array
of
applications,
and
then
we
had
multiple
community
panels
that
whittled
it
down,
and
we
did
most
of
this
remotely.
A
So
my
my
first
interviews
with
our
applicants
were
via
zoom
and
then
we
had
more
community
panels
than
the
city
has
ever
had
as
part
of
the
police
chief
search,
I'm,
all
of
which
and
were
conducted
by
zoom.
To
give
a
wide
array
of
excuse
me
wide
array
of
people
in
this
community.
The
opportunity
to
I'm
here
from
the
applicants
ask
questions
and
then
weigh
in
all
of
which
I
read
and
then
I
had
a
final
interview
at
the
end
of
all
this,
also
by
zoom.
So
it
is
somewhat
fitting
mr.
A
Lee
and
I
really
believe
that
he's
the
perfect
choice
for
this
city
and
I'm
gonna
talk
about
it
from
an
approach
to
public
safety
and
then
just
an
approach,
because
we
love
Boise
and
I'm
he's
so
excited
to
be
here.
Ryan
Ryan
Lee
is
approach
to
public
safety
and
where
transparency
and
citizen
engagement,
community
relationships
and
support
and
and
support
and
teamwork
within
the
department
fit
into
it,
I
believe
are
the
perfect
fit
for
this
community
and
what
we
need
at
this
time,
and
so
that
that
is
the
most
important
piece.
A
I
A
And
then,
of
course,
the
second
piece
is
that
Ryan
Lee
really
is
excited
to
join
our
community
and
I
could
see
it
in
his
eye
through
the
zoom
when
I
asked
him.
Why
and
his
he
has
friends
here.
A
He's
has
kids
who
he's
moving
here
and,
of
course,
a
wife
who's
willing
as
well,
but
he,
like
all
of
us,
feels
and
has
felt
when
he's
here,
and
it
led
him
to
apply
the
connection
that
we
have
to
each
other
into
this
community
and
he
is
committed,
as
as
his
family,
to
joining
our
community
and
being
actively
involved
members
of
it.
A
Hopefully,
he'll
be
back
able
to
be
back
at
school
in
the
fall
as
he'll
be
here
and
then
his
daughter
Piper,
who
will
be
a
sophomore
next
year
and
I,
moved
in
high
school
from
a
large
city
to
a
small
town
when
I
was
an
incoming
sophomore.
So
I
was
thinking
about
the
impact
that
this
decision
will
have
not
only
on
our
community
but
on
Ryan
Lee's
family
today,
and
really
appreciate
the
their
dedication
to
coming
together.
E
A
E
Could
kick
it
off?
I
think
it's
appropriate
to
have
a
bit
of
discussion
and
would
like
to
thank
you
for
bringing
Ryan
forward
for
confirmation.
I
was
able
to
participate
in
the
very
first
of
those
meetings
which
were
were
in
person
at
least
around
the
table
in
the
in
the
human
in
the
HR
department.
And
then
we
quickly
went
to
the
zoo
meetings
and
I
can
tell
you
that
we
had
a
wonderful
group
of
candidates
and,
as
council
leadership
able
to
ask
all
of
them
questions
that
we
knew
not
just
for
ourselves
individually.
E
When
I
first
came
on
the
City
Council,
the
City
of
Boise
had
not
a
very
good
reputation
in
terms
of
how
it
treated
members
of
the
community
during
police
interactions,
and
that
was
something
that
many
of
us
worked
really
hard
to
change
to
turn
around
and
I.
Think
the
evidence
of
much
of
that
we've
seen
in
this
last
month
when
tensions
have
been
so
high
and
people
have
been
able
to
gather
and
mourn
and
protest
rally
in
ways
that
we're
still
safe
and
I.
Think
it's
a
testament
to
that
commitment.
But
it's
not
enough.
E
It's
never
enough.
There's
always
much
more
to
do
and
I've
been
so
impressed
with
Ryan's
commitment
not
only
to
do
that
work,
but
to
do
it
based
on
evidence
based
on
what
works
and
how
it
works
and
with
that
I
will
be
once
we
get
to
that
point.
Supporting
confirmation
for
our
new
police
chief
tonight.
A
J
Council
president
pro-tem,
thank
you
alongside
council
president
clay
I
also
got
to
be
part
of
that
interview,
which
seems
like
a
lifetime
ago,
since
we've
been
basically
working
from
home
since
that
time,
and
it
was
an
honor
to
be
able
to
take
the
many
concerns
of
council
into
that
interview
and
ask
Ryan
those
questions
that
council
had
and
wanted
kind
of
communicate.
What
we
wanted
from
our
new
police
chief,
and
it
felt
to
me
like
he-
has
fit
with
all
of
those
desires
of
our
members
of
council
and
the
community
was
so
strong.
J
F
Yeah
I
want
to
repeat
the
same
praise
to
you,
chiefly
its
it's
going
to
be
great.
To
have
you
leading
our
voice
of
police
department.
I
too
was
able
to
participate,
at
least
in
the
interview
when
it
was
down
to
the
final
two
and
both
outstanding
candidates,
but
I
got
to
say
you
really
stood
out.
Ryan
and
I
was
extremely
impressed
with
your
record.
F
K
A
man
I
would
just
like
to
echo
madam
mayor
council,
leadership
and
councilmember
Thompson's
sentiments.
Welcome.
Welcome
to
the
community
soon
to
be
chief
Lee
I.
Very
much
wish
I
could
have
been
a
part
of
the
interviews
and
and
have
would
have
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
you
in
person,
but
I
that
will
soon
come.
I
hope
you
will
accept
an
invitation
to
come
meet
with
me
on
my
deck,
because
the
zoom
is
just
not
my
thing
and
I
love
to
meet
people
in
person,
so
I
hope
you'll.
Take
me
up
on
that
offer.
K
But
you
know
one
thing
that
we're
work.
We're
going
to
be
working
on
here
in
earnest
and
the
City
of
Boise
is
our
strategy
for
diversity,
inclusion
and
equity
and
everything
that
we
do
moving
forward
in
the
work
of
the
City
of
Boise,
and
it's
very
important
that
we
just
don't
speak
of
it
in
terms
of
outward
appearance,
but
that
it
be
woven
into
the
way
we
do
our
work.
I
very
much
felt
I
should
have
been
a
part
of
this
process.
K
I
hope
that
when
we
select
our
new
fire
chief,
that
I
will
be
able
to
be
a
part
of
that
process,
because
it's
important
it's
important
that
we
have
that
I
am
so
excited
for
our
new
chief
I
wish
him
well
and
I.
Look
forward
to
having
a
very
deep
and
rich
conversation
about
the
issues
that
I
have
seen.
K
From
my
perspective,
as
a
person
of
color
having
lived
in
Boise
Idaho
for
30
years,
we
have
had
some
incidents
that
have
happened
in
other
parts,
not
just
of
Idaho
but
in
the
country,
but
the
people
of
Boise
are
so
tender-hearted
that
they
feel
compelled
to
speak
out
and
to
reach
out
for
guidance
on
how
to
respond
to
these
issues
and
in
at
least
two
occasions.
I
have
been
one
of
those
people
that
they
reach
out
to,
but
it
is
exhausting
work
and
so
I.
K
Look
forward
to
the
training
that
my
colleagues
and
I
are
gonna
have
so
that
moving
forward
people
in
the
community
will
know
that
they
can
reach
out
not
just
to
the
sole
person
of
color
on
the
Boise
City
Council,
but
to
the
mayor
to
my
colleagues
on
City
Council,
because
they
will
have
received
training
and
they
will
know
how
to
respond
to
these
concerns
so
again.
Welcome
chief
Lee.
C
First
I
guess
I
want
to
I
want
to
do
two
things.
I
want
to
I
want
to
welcome
she
Ryan
Lee
to
Boise
I'll,
be
voting
YES
today,
I
also
I,
don't
think
I
can
I.
Think
I
need
to
also
acknowledge
what
what
Lisa
just
said
as
well.
A
councilmember
Sanchez
I
was
part
of
the
interview
process
and
I
feel
really
lucky
to
have
been
part
of
that
process
and
to
have
had
the
opportunity
to
interview
to
you
know
great
candidates
in
that
process.
C
I
think
I
made
an
assumption
that
councilmember
Sanchez
was
part
of
that
process
as
well.
I
think
I,
remember
candidate
Lee
at
the
time
answering
a
question
so
well,
though
I
was
like
well
shoot.
Lisa
Lisa
must
have
asked
his
question
already,
because
the
answer
was
so
good
and
so
again,
I
made
an
assumption.
C
The
councilmember
Sanchez
was
on
there
and
in
this
moment,
right
now
as
I'm
talking
I'm,
realizing
that
that
I
need
to
own
that
assumption
that
I
made
that
I
should
have
asked
and
made
sure
that
council
member
Sanchez
was
included
in
that
discussion,
because
I
do
think
that
right
now,
if
we
take
a
look
at
the
world
around
us,
it
is
it's
very
clear.
The
problems
when
we
faced
when
brown
and
black
voices
are
not
included
and
that
assumption
I
think
on
my
part,
played
a
responsibility
in
that
so
I
guess.
C
Thank
You
councilmember
Sanchez
I,
do
want
to
welcome
you
to
this
community.
Chiefly
I
have
had
the
incredible
opportunity
to
work
with
the
past
two
Chiefs
chief
Masterson
and
cheekbones
and
Boise
chief
bones
and
I
are
both
over
6
feet,
tall,
pretty
large
dudes,
and
we
have
both
cried
together,
handing
out
bicycles
to
incoming
refugee
children
and
one
of
the
things
I
really
admired
about
both
of
our
last
Chiefs.
That
I
saw
in
you
was
this
tremendous
servant
part
and
this
this
feeling
of
kindness,
that
is,
that
is
very
outward.
C
That
was
something
I
noticed
in
the
interview
process.
I
noticed
in
the
answering
of
your
questions
and
I
think
you
know
one
of
the
things
that
I
hear
sometimes
in
Boise
is
we
like
our
homegrown
folks,
and
you
know
we
we,
like
our
local
things
and
people
sometimes
wonder
about
people
coming
in
and
groves
and
I
think
that
one
of
the
beauties
of
our
city
is
that
we
have
really
strong
identities
that
attract
people
to
the
identities
that
we
have.
C
That
also
bring
new
things
to
our
community
as
well,
and
if
anybody
had
any
concerns
about
bringing
a
chieftain
from
a
bigger
city,
I
would
say
this
is
a
person
who
truly
believes
and
will
reinforce
the
the
wonderful
identities
that
Boise
has,
but
also
are
great
opportunities
to
grow.
So
I'm
really
excited
to
have
you
here,
I'm
excited
to
showing
you
around
town,
my
hometown
in
my
home
state
can
show
you
where
the
great
vegetarian
restaurants
are
where
the
great
bike
paths
are
and
I
really
do
look
forward
to
confirming
you
today.
So
thank
you.
L
A
L
I
guess
I'll
speak
directly
to
our
new
police
chief.
Before
he's
a
police
chief
I'm
excited
to
have
you
I
haven't
met,
you
I
have
read
a
lot
about
you,
I've
heard
so
many
wonderful
things
about
you
I'm
excited
to
vote,
yes
to
your
appointment
or
confirmation
or
whatever.
The
word
is
for
what
we're
doing
here.
I'm
excited
to
have
you
here
in
Boise,
I
think
our
whole
country
is
in
a
transformational
time
and
we
have
a
lot
to
be
proud
of
and
in
reforms
that
we've
made
in
the
past.
L
A
Well
and
one
one
more
thing
before
the
motion
I
want
to
clarify
that
chiefly
once
confirmed
and
will
be
sworn
in
July
first,
and
so
he
will
become
chief
on
July,
1st
2020
and,
as
we
are
all
doing,
he's
coming
to
his
new
home
and
then
quarantine
as
requested
by
the
governor
and
our
city
and
then
we'll
be
reporting
for
duty.
And
after
that,
we
will
be
able
to
develop
a
plan
for
how
our
new
chief
is
able
to
meet
with
community
members
and
be
out
and
about.
Of
course.
I
A
H
All
right,
yes
good
evening,
council
members
and
members
of
the
community
watching
online
I
want
to
express
them
both
excited
and
humbled
for
the
opportunity
to
serve
as
your
chief
of
police.
For
those
of
you.
They
have
not
yet
met,
meaning
I've
been
a
police
professional
for
almost
20
years
in
Portland,
Oregon
rose
through
the
ranks
from
community
police
officer
to
Assistant.
Chief
of
Police
have
served
in
a
variety
of
assignments
over
my
career,
spanning
from
patrol
operations
to
investigative
assignments
to
supervising
the
support
side
of
the
organization.
H
These
experiences
have
helped
me
to
develop
and
the
deep
understanding
of
the
complex
workings
of
a
large
police
organization
and
have
equipped
me
well
serve
as
your
chief
of
police
for
a
training
and
education
standpoint.
I
hold
a
master's
of
criminal
justice
from
Boston
University,
a
police
executive
certificate
from
the
Oregon
Department
of
Public
Safety
standards
and
training
and
I'm.
A
graduate
of
the
matrices
heaps
Association
police,
executive,
Leadership,
Institute
above
Who
I
am
professionally,
though
I
am
a
husband
and
a
father
with
a
strong
belief
in
service
to
others.
H
My
family
and
I
look
forward
to
joining
the
community
and
making
Boise
our
home.
You
may
wonder
why
I
would
step
away
from
a
successful
career
in
Portland
to
embrace
this
opportunity.
The
answer
is
simple:
Boise
is
an
amazing
place.
It's
sitting
at
the
intersection
of
deserts
and
mountains
with
a
river
running
through
downtown
and
the
geographical
splintering
diversity
of
the
city
is
only
matched
by
the
amazing
cultural
community
without
exception.
H
Everyone
I've
met
from
here
has
been
gracious
and
welcoming
they
love
all
things:
outdoor
they're,
respectful
and
kind
to
each
other
boise
residents
project
a
strong
sense
of
rightful
pride
in
this
city.
While
I
was
researching
this
opportunity,
as
Chief
of
Police
I
spoke
to
many
members
of
the
community,
but
I
believe
one
person
summed
up
best
when
he
succinctly
told
me:
I
left
here
to
live
in
other
cities
and
they
want
like
Boise
I,
just
had
to
come
back.
I
feel
safe,
walking
around
downtown
here.
H
It
just
feels
like
home
few
places
can
boast,
making
their
residents
feel
this
way
with
all
these
positive.
It's
no
wonder
that
Boise
is
a
rapidly
growing
city.
Sadly,
I've
seen
other
cities,
particularly
at
Pacific,
Northwest
struggle
to
preserve
their
identities
and
since
the
community,
as
they've
grown.
I
H
The
past
few
decades,
without
careful
stewardship,
especially
complete,
the
hustle
and
bustle
of
a
growing
metropolis,
can
stifle
about
hometown
feeling
and
I
am
drawn
to
serve
as
your
chief
of
police
to
help
protect.
This
community
deserve
it's
amazing
values
and
culture
and
ensure
that,
as
it
grows
in
size,
it
still
feels
connecting
and
welcoming
to
all
people.
I
can't
avoid
the
fact
that
the
national
narrative
surrounding
policing
that
plays
the
backdrops
this
meeting
has
brought
the
police
profession
under
increased
scrutiny
and
challenge
the
leadership
of
many
other
cities.
H
However,
the
relative
civility
in
Boise
I
believe,
is
a
reflection
of
a
Police
Department,
well
known
for
its
community
policing
approach
and
its
highly
competent
and
skilled
membership.
I
strongly
believe
the
policing
must
involve
and
reflect
the
community,
something
I
know
the
Boise
Police
Department
is
committed
to,
and
the
value
draws
me
to
it.
I
look
forward
to
joining
the
boys
at
police
department.
H
An
accessibility
despite
the
rapid
growth
of
the
city,
I
intend
to
connect
with
the
membership
of
the
police
department,
both
sworn
professional
staff
and
help,
learn
and
champion
their
good
ideas
to
continue
shrinking
the
bond
between
the
community
and
the
police
likewise
mentioned
to
engage
and
listen
to
members
of
all
corners
of
the
community
to
make
sure
the
Boise
police
farm
is
inclusive
of
all
community
members
and
providing
the
service.
The
community
deserves
once
and
expects
I
committed
to
transparency.
H
Accountability
in
servant
leadership
I'm
grateful
for
this
opportunity
to
leave
the
boys
at
Police
Department
in
this
amazing
city.
I,
look
forward
to
the
opportunity
to
learn
and
work
with
all
of
you
from
Council,
from
inside
the
police
department
and
from
the
community
to
help
learn
how
I
can
best
serve
you
as
your
chief
of
police
and
I.
Thank
you
for
this
opportunity.
I
A

All

then
we
have
e
VAR
k,
I'm.
Sorry,
I'm,
probably
saying
that
last
name
incorrectly
I
believe
that
the
applicant
is
has
joined
us
by
zoom
and
we
have
no
public
signed
up
to
speak
on
this
specific
item.
Amande
I'd
ask
that
you.
Let
me
know
if
that
is
otherwise
Leon
go
ahead.
M
All
right
can
even
met
a
mayor
and
members
of
the
council.
The
item
before
you
is
a
platinum
vacation
for
property
located
at
2007
within
3
Mile
Creek

the
Civic
properties
located
in
three-mile

at

Three
Mile

uses

single-family
residences
on
various
size,
Lots
the
applicants
requesting
to
vacate
a
platano
regarding
a
by
a
bridal
plant,
sorry
Wow
in
person
speaking
so
different
than
okay.
M
N
M
Was
recorded
in
1962
included
a
plat
know
depicting
a
bridal
path.
The
intent
of
this
plat
note
was
to
preserve
pasture
areas
for
horses.
However,
the
Civic
property
and
surrounding
area
have
redeveloped
in
such
a
way
that
the
pasturing
of
horses
is
no
longer
really
practiced
or
practical
in
a
lot
of
ways.
Numerous
properties
of
accessory
buildings
that
have
been
constructed
over
this
bridal
path
and
the
Suffolk
properties,
approximately
half
the
size
of
other
properties
in
the
subdivision
as
a
result
of
a
subdivision
completed
in
2006
prior
annexation.
M
M
E
M
A
Well,
it
used
to
be
the
case
that
the
applicants
of
subdivisions
didn't
always
join
us
if
they
were
in
support
of
the
terms
and
conditions
of
staff,
important
recommendations,
so
I
would
ask
that
the
record
reflect
that
the
applicant
is
not
with
us
and
with
that,
unless
there
are
other
questions
now
from
staff
or
from
counsel
to
staff
emotions
duly
before
us
Adam
error.
Yes,.
E
L
C
F
A
All
right
next
up,
we
have
SOS
20-16,
the
Boise
City
vacation
of
Platt
note
and
a
public
utilities
easement
leon
again
as
a
presenter
and
then
just
so
you're
ready.
We
have
ted
martinez
as
the
applicant
and
will
you
please
raise
your
hands
so
that
amanda
can
give
you
access
to
the
zoom
and
robin
locket
or
locket
is
listed?
A
M
The
applicant
is
requesting
to
vacate
a
10-foot
general
utility,
easement
and
plat
note
regarding
lots
for
an
eight-block,
wannabe
Dahak
subdivision.
This
subdivision
of
the
court
in
2019
includes
a
ten-foot,
easement
and
platinum
for
general
utilities
along
the
western
boundary
of
lot
four
block
one
and
the
eastern
boundary
of
lot
four
block
one
at
ten
feet.
This
easier,
there's
double
the
width
of
the
five
foot
required
side
setback
of
the
development
the
applicant
has
secured
all
relinquishment
Stu.
M
A
All
right
and
with
that
we
will
go
to
the
applicant,
actually
saw
that
the
applicant
here
is
listed
as
I
think
Ted
Martinez,
that
I
saw
in
the
zoom.
It
says
Steve
Martinez
I
apologize.
If
I
got
the
name
wrong.
Will
you
please
sum
if
you've
joined
us
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record,
and
then
we're
happy
to
hear
your
comments.
P
Perfect,
thank
you
so
much
mayor
and
council.
This
is
Steve
Martinez.
You
were
right.
Ted
Martinez
is
my
father.
He's
the
one
that's
kind
of
been
handling
this
on
that
end,
but
address
is
965
West,
State,
Street,
Boise,
Idaho,
eight,
three,
seven
one,
four
really
just
kind
of
stand
for
question.
I
would
like
to
give
my
hats
off
to
staff
on
this
doing
this
process
through
kovat
and
lock
down
with
all
the
different
jurisdictions
and
staff
has
obviously
been
a
fun
process,
but,
like
I,
said
hats
off
to
staff
for
helping
us
through
this
process,.
A
Q
M
Area,
although
the
gazebo
is
not
located
anywhere
near
these
properties,
those
improvements
have
been
bonded
for
and
are
required
to
be
installed.
Prior
to
you
know
the
development
as
a
whole
and
it's
similar
any
subdivision.
We
allow
bonding
for
those
types
of
improvements
to
again
allow
construction
permits
other
things
to
be
issued,
so
they
have
followed
City
process
and
handling
those
improvements
and,
yes,
they
will
be
installed
and
are
required.
A
G
A
E
L
L
R
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Now
we
will
move
into
public
hearings.
First
up
is
19
28
Kelly
kitchens
at
9,000,
West
State
Street.
We
have
Leon
Letson,
who
will
be
presenting
again
welcome
back
J,
Gibbons
and
Kelly
kitchens
as
the
applicant,
and
then
we
have
the
Northwest
Neighborhood
Association
represented
by
Dennis
done
hello,
Dennis,
so
Amanda,
if
you
would
please
tee
them
up,
I
have
Robin
Lockett
from
the
public
again
listed.
A
Is
the
someone
that's
signed
up
after
that
will
move
to
see
if
anybody
here
in
the
chambers
wants
to
speak
on
this
and
then
Amanda
will
look
to
people
to
raise
their
hands.
I
see
some
others
that
live
in
the
neighborhood
that
might
be
here,
for
that
so
raise
your
hands.
If
you
hope
to
testify
on
this
item
in
particular,
and
with
that
Leon
go
ahead.
M
Thank
you
again,
madam
mayor
members
of
the
council.
The
item
before
you
is
a
rezone
from
our
1a
to
our
3d
of
4.3
acres
located
9,000
West
State
Street
in
Northwest
Boise.
The
subject
property
is
located
on
the
north
side
of
State
Street
between
build
art,
Lane
and
Duncan
Lane.
The
surrounding
area
is
comprised
of
single
family
homes
on
various
size,
Lots
to
the
north,
east
and
west
to
the
south.
As
a
mix
of
commercial
and
residential
uses
located
within
Garden
City,
the
requested
rezone
to
r3d
is
compatible
surrounding
zoning.
M
The
area
which
includes
varying
intensities
of
residential
to
the
north,
east
and
west,
as
well
as
commercial
zoning
to
the
south,
the
separate
properties
designated
mixed-use
and
within
one
mile
of
a
community
activity
center
located
at
the
intersection
of
Glenwood,
Avenue
and
State
Street.
Furthermore,
the
properties
anticipated
to
undergo
significant
new
development
based
on
blueprint
Boise
regarding
the
proposed
density
of
the
project.
It
calculates
to
thirteen
point
nine
units
per
acre,
which
is
well
below
the
forty
three
point.
M
Five
units
allowed
with
the
r3d
zoning,
however
rezoning
to
our
3d,
preserves
the
opportunity
for
additional
infill
density
so
desired
and
appropriate
in
the
future.
This
is
something
the
planning
team
considered
thoroughly,
particular
as
it
relates
supporting
a
long
term
goal
of
the
city
for
transforming
State
Street
into
a
multimodal
transit
oriented
corridor.
M
It
was
approved
and
and
not
appealed.
So,
yes,
the
associate
PD
was
approved
by
Planning
and
Zoning
Commission
and
was
not
appealed.
It
consists
of
sixty
multifamily
units
designed
in
a
two-story
townhome
style,
which
is
compatible
in
design
and
product
type,
with
much
of
the
newly
constructed
housing
in
the
area.
The
project
complies
with
all
of
the
dimensional
standards
of
the
proposed
r3d
zone,
as
well
as
the
requirements
for
peds
of
this
size
and
nature.
M
Although
there
is
no
public
right-of-way
proposed
for
the
development
staff
did
do
a
connectivity
index
review
due
to
the
scale
of
the
project
and
the
potential
redevelopment
of
adjacent
properties.
The
connectivity
index
score
is
two
for
this
project,
based
on
eight
links
and
four
nodes
as
pictured
on
this
slide.
The
city
considers
a
score
of
1.5
or
greater
to
be
acceptable.
This
calculation
does
include
three
private
service
drives.
The
planning
team
has
requested
B
stub
to
the
north
and
east,
as
previously
mentioned.
M
The
project
also
includes
a
10-foot,
publicly
accessible
pathway
along
the
western
portion
of
the
property
pictured
here
in
green.
This
pathway
has
the
potential
to
connect
to
other
pathways
in
the
area,
as
redevelopment
occurs,
to
establish
a
Greenbelt
like
connection
between
State
Street
and
the
Boise
foothills.
It's
all
orient
you
to
this
property
here,
which
is
on
the
side
of
the
prominence
development
we
looked
at
earlier
in
the
year.
Excuse
me,
which
does
include
a
series
of
pathways,
so
another
piece
did
that
possible.
M
All
reviewing
agencies
and
departments
approved
the
project
with
standard
conditions,
comments
from
the
public
focused
on
concerns
regarding
the
intensity
of
the
rezone,
the
density
of
the
project,
its
design
and
impacts,
the
public
services
and
infrastructure.
As
detailed
in
the
staff
report
and
highlighted
in
this
presentation,
the
planning
team
finds
the
applicants
proposal
to
be
consistent
with
the
standards
of
approval,
including
our
development
code,
blueprint,
Boise
and
comments
and
requirements
from
all
reviewing
agencies
and
departments.
M
E
Mayor
Thank,
You
Leon,
so
a
couple
of
questions.
First
of
all,
as
I
look
on
both
our
map
and
the
parcel
map
on
at
ADA
county,
the
right
of
the
easement
that
appears
to
be
over
what
used
to
be
the
canal
running
north
and
at
907,
five
West
Steve
Street
I'm.
Presuming
that
the
plan
that
you
showed
that
the
potential
for
pathway
would
somehow
get
over
to
Rodney
Avenue
by
at
the
point
or
that
last
lot
on
Bogart
Lane
might
redevelop.
The
one
that
has
access
to
Steve
and
Rooney
is.
M
So
you
know,
a
straight
line
is
obviously
a
quick
way
to
illustrate
a
possibility.
Number
of
there
are
several
large
parcels
to
the
north
of
this.
That
could
redevelop,
which
could
allow
us
again
to
continue
the
pathway
there.
There's
also
a
large
HOA
strip
of
land
controlled
by
I.
Think
Matlock
subdivision,
there's
a
few
other
subdivisions
involved.
So
in
theory
we
could
negotiate
agreements
with
HOAs
as
well
to
construct
a
pathway.
It's
not
developed
with
anybody's
yard.
It's
not
privately
owned,
I
mean
it's
probably
under
the
sense
of
it's
an
HOA
property.
M
So
in
theory,
yes,
we
could
run
something
like
this
north-south
if
we
can
pull
all
those
pieces
together
as
an
alternative,
which
I
think
is
a
good
one-
that
you're
exploring
is
to
route
people
to
right-of-way
areas
with
complete
sidewalks
and
other
facilities
to
eventually
connect
them
north.
So
that's
a
plan
B
in
terms
of
how
we
would
go
about
that.
M
It's
clearly
a
conversation
with
the
irrigation
district
and
they
are
already
willing
to
participate
on
this
project
and
they
have
with
prominence
as
well,
and
it's
a
conversation
with
the
HOA
is
to
see
if
they're,
allowing
if
they
would
be
willing
to
work
with
us
to
also
allow
these
pathways
and
then
any
redevelopment
that
occurs
again
on
I.
Think
it's
a
six
or
seven
very
large
parcels
to
the
north,
the
city
as
a
part
of
that
process,
could
require
a
pathway
similar
to
what
we're
seeing
with
the
proposed
project.
Here,
although.
E
E
You
second
question,
then:
if
I
could
and
I
don't
know,
if
we
can
do
anything
about
this,
because
I
think
the
PUD
has
been
approved
and
not
appealed,
is
that
that
way,
so
I
want
to
understand
this
process
right
now
the
PUD
shows
private
service
drives
and
you
show
a
number
of
potential
links
to
those
private
service
drives.
But
unless
we've
changed
our
ordinance,
we
can't
we
can't
provide
vehicular
link
over
a
private
service
drive
to
a
joining
property.
Is
that
correct?
Madam.
M
M
That
was
at
the
request
of
ITT,
which
was
unwilling
to
have
the
potential
of
that
many
trips
come
through
the
site.
That's
the
itd
letter
is
much
more
streamlined
than
what
the
conversation
actually
was,
but
it
had
to
do
with
access
management
to
State
Street,
the
type
of
access
they
would
approve,
and
the
effort
of
ACH
D
and
ITB
in
the
city
to
try
to
come
together,
which,
as
I
alluded
to
it,
didn't
happen
as
well
as
we
probably
have
liked.
Madam.
M
Good
in
the
adjacent
properties,
well,
there
was
no
master
planning
effort
which
I
think
would
have
been
appropriate
and
certainly
would
have
included
those
neighbors.
But
no,
there
was
no
direct
outreach
to
them
to
try
to
do
a
master
planning
effort
again.
It
was
something
that
we
had.
We
tabled
the
item
at
P
and
Z
for
a
while
to
try
to
get
there
and
there
was
really
no
interest
from
our
partner
agencies
and
having
public
roadways
in
this
area
of
the
city
or
through
this
site.
Thank.
A
C
So
Kody
just
a
couple
of
questions.
So
council
president
Craig
talked
about
this
a
little
bit
but
there's
a
canal
on
the
the
west
side,
a
canal
on
the
south
side,
a
canal
on
the
north
side.
It's
almost
an
island
surrounded
by
some
of
these
canals.
My
question
is
about
the
Boise
Valley
canal
that
runs
parallel
to
State
Street,
the
property
too.
C
The
West
or
the
subdivision
to
the
west
I
can't
tell
from
the
map,
but
it
appears
that
there's
either
a
crosswalk
or
a
path,
that's
between
the
canal
and
the
housing
and
I'm
trying
to
look
at
the
the
map
and
the
kind
of
proposal
here
to
see.
If
there's
anything
that
connects
all
the
way,
because
I
think
eventually
that
goes
over
to
Duncan,
Street
and
so
I'm
wondering
if
there's
a
way
of
connecting
those
paths
together
or
if
that's
actually
a
path.
M
Madam
mayor
comes
from
Halyburton,
so
there
is
sorry
Leon
yeah,
that's
right.
There
is
sidewalk
proposed
on
the
backside
of
the
canal
for
this
development,
so
it'll
be
a
very
detached
sidewalk
in
that
regard,
and
it
will
connect
with
that
existing
subdivision
to
the
west
to
create
continuous
sidewalk
from
this
development
over
to
duncan
lane.
M
C
Mayor
Leon,
no,
that
was
the
that
was
the
question
about
that.
One
and
I
appreciate
that
I
just
couldn't
see
on
the
on
the
development
map
here
proposal.
If
there
was
a
sidewalk
there
or
not,
my
other
question
was
I
was
looking
through
the
project
report
and
just
the
question
about
some
of
those
other
those
other
laterals
on
the
property.
M
Sorry,
madam
mayor
councilman,
Halliburton,
yes
to
answer
your
initial
question.
There
are
many
laterals
ditches
and
canals
that
cross
this
property,
the
one
on
the
west
side
and
why
that's
being
tiled
is
basically
at
the
request
of
Boise
Valley
irrigation,
ditch
company
to
allow
a
pathway
through
that
area.
It's
been
a
back
and
forth
conversation
about
the
size
of
their
easement
where
improvements
can
occur
and
I'll
the
applicant
will
be
able
to
give
you
more
information
on
this
as
well.
In
terms
of
their
conversation.
M
I
personally
spoke
with
Boise
Valley
irrigation,
ditch
company,
even
today,
I
feel,
like
my
mic,
keeps
going
in
and
out
or
something
sorry,
so,
essentially
they
Boise
Valley
irrigation,
ditch
company
John
Patton
is
the
gentleman
who
oversees
that
has
expressly
said
that
if
it's
not
tiled,
he
won't
really
allow
anything
within
25
feet
of
the
ditch,
which
really
has
a
very
significant
impact
on
this
project
in
terms
of
where
buildings
could
be
located.
Landscaping
and
the
10-foot
pathway
that
we're
trying
to
really
start
that
connection
from
State
Street
into
the
foothills
with.
M
So
it's
it's
largely
driven
by
irrigation
district
company
requirements,
but
the
applicant
jake
edmonds
has
spent
even
more
time
talking
to
them
than
me
and
I'm
sure
you'd
be
happy
to
share
with
you
kind
of
what
that
conversation
has
looked
like.
As
for
the
other
ones,
again,
I'll
I
believe
most
of
them
are
being
tiled,
and
this
again
is
at
the
request
of
the
irrigation
company.
M
They
their
default
mode,
is
to
tile
as
a
way
of
you
know,
maintaining
the
property
and
I
I
do
know
that
that
kind
of
conflicts
with
some
of
the
interests
of
both
the
city
and
the
neighborhood,
and
keeping
as
many
of
these
open
as
possible
and
I
think
that's
the
attention
that
we're
we're,
navigating
as
we
try
to
figure
that
out.
I.
C
A
All
right,
if
no
other
questions
for
staff,
Jay,
Gibbons
and
I'm,
not
sure
if
Jay,
if
Kelly
kitchens
is
listed
because
you're
representing
Kelly
kitchens
or
if
it's
the
two
of
you
so
I'm
welcome
I,
see
somebody
listed
oh
I
said
well,
I
see
Dennis
done,
but
you're
next
Dennis
and
I
see
someone
named
Kelly
kitchens.
Is
it
Kelly?
That's
it's
Kelly
kitchens,
your
name
or
is
Kelly
kitchens,
your
business
name
Ari!
It's
your
name!
Okay,
alright,
come
on
up
well,
I,
guess!
Welcome
to
the
zoom
I.
A
S
You
so
our
project.
We
are
four
point:
three
acres,
as
Leon
noted
we're
kind
of
got
a
moat
going
on.
We
have
a.
We
have
a
canal
that
runs
along
State
Street.
The
boys
play
irrigation.
Ditch
company
has
a
lateral
number
34
on
the
west
property
line.
You've
got
drainage,
district
number,
two
that
has
a
drain
that
runs
the
north
property
line
and
halfway
down
the
east
property
line,
we
spent
a
lot
of
time
coordinating
with
those
two
irrigation
infrastructure.
S
Districts
actually
met
with
the
board
of
the
drainage
district
number
two
and
their
board
asked
me
to
prepare
drawings
to
the
to
tile
bat
from
a
maintenance
standpoint.
It's
been
dredged
out
over
the
years
to
the
point
where
it's
about
six
foot
deep,
it
doesn't
run
a
ton
of
water.
It
is
a
drain
it
the
only
time
it
really
has
a
whole
lot
of
water
in
it
is
when
the
when
the
river
is
at
flood
stage,
and
so
I'm
working
with
them
to
to
figure
out.
S
You
know
pipe
size
and
grading,
and
we
have
to
go
back
for
a
license
agreement
with
our
construction
drawings.
To
rectify
that,
one
thing
I
will
know
as
far
as
both
voice
valor
irrigation
district
company
or
ditch
company
and
the
drain
district
number
two.
As
far
as
drainage
and
and
irrigation
easements
are
concerned,
you
know
anytime
you're,
working
with
the
irrigation
of
drainage
district.
They
pay
a
certain
easement
adjacent
to
their
their
infrastructure,
of
their
ditches
or
drains
for
maintenance
purposes,
and
many
times
it's
been
called
into
question.
S
How
wide
each
of
these
you
know
easements
are
in
and
that's
the
way
it
is
across
the
valley
from
a
growing
community
anytime.
You
talk
to
him,
you
know
they.
They
will
tell
you
here's
what
our
easeness
and
and
in
this
case,
when
the
ditches
open
the
drain,
ditch
on
the
north
and
the
east
side
is
open.
They
it's
it's
a
it's
a
hundred
foot,
because
what
they
will
tell
you-
and
that
is
not
necessarily
you
won't
find
it
in
an
easement
document
in
a
is.
S
It
is
standard
practice
with
them
and
and
any
of
the
irrigation
businesses
they.
They
have
so
much
infrastructure
across
the
valley,
miles
and
miles
and
miles
and
acres
that
paper
by
irrigation
water
to
they
were
never
necessarily
surveyed,
so
they
rely
on
the
development
community
at
such
time
as
there
is
a
development
interest,
they
will
require
that
we
prepare
an
easement
document
for
them
and
negotiate
the
width
and
any
any
improvements
that
may
occur
inside
or
what
may
be
prohibited
from
being
inside
that
easement.
So
pre
pre
development.
S
We
have
a
hundred
foot
easement,
so
it's
50
foot
on
each
side
of
that
drainage,
ditch
that
runs
on
our
normal
property
and
cuts
down
along
the
north
side,
down
to
the
east
side
and
in
working
with
them.
If
we
tile
it
that
cuts
that
easement
down
now
and
we
have
25
it's
a
50
foot
these
minute.
At
that
point,
closed
development
and
they
have
25
aside
in
this
case
the
property
is
a
large
acre
lot
properties
to
the
north.
It's
a
Westby
subdivision.
It
was
plaited
in
1976.
S
There
are
eight
or
ten
properties,
very
restrictive
covenants
to
make
sure
that
that
open
space
remains
and
granted
at
some
point,
everybody
will
get
together
and
and
redevelop
and
at
some
point
in
the
future,
but
were
present
on
that
when
that
was
planted
in
1976
the
property.
That's
directly
to
our
north,
has
a
25-foot,
yeah
25
foot
easement
line
drawn
on
that
on
that
plat,
where
it
meets
our
property
line,
but
we're
that,
where
the
ditch
currently
goes
into
our
property
deeper
than
that
they
have
no
easement.
S
What
we
heard
at
the
Planning
Zoning
Commission
hearing
was
the
neighbors
want
that
open,
and
there
was.
There
was
some
sentiment
in
agreement
from
the
planning
Zoning
Commission.
They
didn't.
They
didn't
really
put
a
condition
on
us
per
se
to
that
effect.
But
so
when
we
went
to,
we
said
we
prepared
our
plans
to
go
to
design
review
and
we
purposely
held
off
on
that
until
after
the
planning
zoning
Commission's,
though
we
could
properly
address
and
have
the
appropriate
response
boards
design
review,
we
showed
the
ditch
to
remain
open
at
that
point
in
time.
S
The
voice
of
our
irrigation
district
then
submitted
a
set
of
comments
to
the
design
review
commission
that
they
were
adamant
that
that
be
tiled,
and
if
it
wasn't
tiled,
then
we
can't
put
anything
a
pathway
or
improvements,
a
buffer
or
landscape
buffer
inside
that
25-foot
easement.
If
we
tile
it,
they
use
them.
That
goes
down
to
ten
foot
on
the
side
and
that
allows
us
to
then
provide
the
pathway
connection
the
city
requested
and
have
a
heavier
landscape
screen
fencing
on
that
side.
S
From
an
access
perspective,
we
worked
with
ITV,
we
met
with
them
several
times
and
they
have
a
permit
process
for
for
access.
They,
they
did
a
warrant
study.
We
provided
a
warrant
study
showing
that
sixty
units
didn't
did
not
warrant
an
extra
deceleration
lane,
and
so,
with
the
what
the
itd
said
was
come
back
to
us
weird.
S
S
That
runs
parallel
to
State
Street
they're
adamant
that
those
the
two
of
those
three
be
closed,
and
basically
we
build
a
new
one
for
our
main
entrance,
but
there's
one
that
the
neighbor,
the
Easter
Lee
property
utilized
when
they're
there
their
bridge
caved
in
a
couple
years
ago,
and
so
they
started
using
existing
when
it's
actually
on
our
property.
We
have
Kelly
kitchen
has
worked
with
that
owner.
We
are
going
to
provide
that
one
of
those
accesses
that
that.
S
That
Leon
showed
to
the
southeast
access
that
and
currently
on
the
site
plan
that
you
see
ends
in
a
trash
can
chain
a
trash
enclosure.
We
moved
that
trash
enclosure
and
extended
each
of
those
proposed
connections
to
the
property
line,
and
so
the
property
owner
to
the
east
will
have
access
that
allows
us
to
take
out
that
that
easternmost
bridge
over
the
canal
and
provide
and
actually
comply
with
that
what
itd
has
requested
we
have
not
submitted
for
the
permit.
Yet
IPD
requires
construction
drawings
as
part
of
that
permit
application.
S
So
we
need
to
get
through
the
entitlement
process
with
the
city,
and
that
includes
City
Council
on
the
rezone
and
subsequently
the
design.
Your
new
committee
hearing,
which
is
actually
tomorrow
night
in
order
to
really
have
all
our
ducks
in
a
row,
we
have
gone
forward
with
construction
drawings,
so
we're
prepared
to
do
that
following
decisions
on
the
next
two
evenings.
S
C
C
A
C
E
S
Madam
mayor
councilman
flag
these
units,
so
we
have
a
series
of
six
unit
buildings
and
and
two
three
eight
unit
buildings.
There
are
actually
more
or
less
built
as
as
as
two
units
they
so
I
can't
remember
exactly
the
square
feet
there.
They
may
be
so
they're
townhouse
style
apartment.
There
are
two
storeys
living
living
area,
I
mean
the
living
areas
on
the
ground
floor
and
then
you
have
the
bedrooms
upstairs
there.
There
are
two
and
three
bedroom
apartments
square
footage,
I
want
to
say
probably
fourteen
fifteen
hundred
square
feet,
they're.
N
A
All
right,
thank
you.
Kelly
did
you
also
plan
to
testify.
N
A
T
T
U
A
Just
a
moment,
oh,
and
also
will
you
please
Erica,
while
you're
doing
that,
just
I've
been
forgetting
to
ask
and
remind
people
to
give
their
name
and
address
for
the
record.
If
you
please
do
that.
U
A
U
A
U
U
We
are
not
necessarily
opposed
to
most
of
the
building
elements
of
this
project,
though
we're
advocating
for
the
city
to
ensure
the
public
safety
in
our
neighborhood.
Our
intent
is
to
help
implement
the
plans
of
the
corridor,
but
safe
infrastructure
is
fundamental
for
successful
Tod
and
right
now
we
lack
safe
and
functional
multimodal
infrastructure,
so
it
doesn't
support
the
transit
options.
It
actually
works
against
it.
U
We
do
not
agree
with
many
of
the
opinions
in
the
stats
report,
but
the
fact
that
they
say
all
necessary
utilities
and
infrastructure
are
readily
available
to
this
site,
finding
that
the
application
is
consistent
with
the
standards
for
the
approval
and
the
correspondence
received
from
the
commenting
agencies
indicating
no
undue
burden
on
services
and
transportation.
We
disagree
with
all
of
that.
U
The
Boise's
governing
documents
for
this
corridor
show
that
pedestrian
access
is
to
ensure
that
there
is
continuous
sidewalk
access
and
the
new
State
Street
corridor
to
transit
development
plan
says
the
street
should
provide
spaces
where
people
feel
safe
and
welcome.
You're
gonna
see
that
that
does
not
show
up
in
this
situation.
These
are
adopted
documents
in
the
comprehensive
plan
in
the
northwest
policy.
Section
of
the
comprehensive
plan
it
says,
ensure
all
transit
stops,
are
connected
to
the
sidewalks
or
other
cadets
facilities.
U
So
here's
a
bird's-eye
view
looking
down
at
the
property
green,
a
sidewalk
red
is
no
sidewalk,
so
I
want
you
to
take
a
moment
to
look
at
that,
because
that
plays
into
many
other
things
as
we
go
forward.
The
slide
to
the
right
is
the
bull
garden,
State
Street
intersection,
which
is
right
here,
and
it
has
a
crosswalk
here
and
a
crosswalk
here,
but
this
property
is
over
here.
So
you
get
here.
U
You
proceed
down
the
red,
no
sidewalk
and
you
cross
with
no
crosswalk
to
what,
hopefully
might
be
a
bus,
stop
at
some
point
in
the
plans,
but
it's
pretty
unsafe
to
get
there.
If
you're
going
to
go
to
school,
you
go
down.
State,
Street,
no
sidewalk,
no
sidewalk,
tiny
structure,
sidewalk
no
sidewalk
the
missing
sidewalk
on
bogart
Lane
was
the
top
2015
requests
for
sidewalk
from
the
safe
routes
to
school
program.
It
scheduled
for
2022.
So
that
could
be
a
condition
of
approval
in
the
interim.
U
Parents
will
drive
their
kids
to
the
schools
in
the
park
and
that
just
increases
traffic,
fuel
consumption
and
air
pollution
in
the
compass
report.
It
out
rate
service,
public
schools
and
public
works
are
within
one
mile
the
proposal.
However,
there
are
insufficient
bicycle
and
pedestrian
infrastructure
to
provide
safe
access
to
these
locations.
U
This
is
what
Bogart
Lane
looks
like
if
you're
going
to
be
walking
to
school
as
a
elementary
school
student.
There's
no
continuous
sidewalk,
there's
no
designated
bike
lanes,
there's
a
lack
of
street
lighting
and
in
the
winter,
when
we
have
less
daylight
hours
that
matters
and
there's
heavy
morning,
traffic
commute
or
heavy
morning
commuter
traffic's,
not
so
much
in
the
afternoon
when
school
gets
out
a
second
issue
we
have
with
safety.
U
We
know
that
the
fire
code
doesn't
require
a
second
access,
but
the
fire
code
does
say
that
the
official
can
authorize
it
based
on
potential
for
impairment
of
a
single
Road
by
vehicle
congestion
or
other
factors.
This
site
is
going
to
have
one
road
right
here
and
it's
got
traffic.
It's
got.
Potential
accidents
lined
up
with
Arne
across
the
way
and
Arne
has
a
very
popular
local
pub
right
here
and
then
we've
got
an
intersection
that
holds
accidents
at
it
as
well
and
the
main
point
in
concern.
U
U
So
with
the
comments
from
the
agencies,
a
CH
D
said
no
improvements
were
required,
but
this
is
not
a
CH
D
s,
jurisdiction
in
a
buts,
the
highway.
It's
Idaho,
Transportation
Department's
jurisdictions,
so
their
comments.
In
their
letter
they
didn't
have
the
right
to
determine
that
necessarily
itv
had
plenty
of
comments.
They
were
not
resolved
when
the
PUD
was
approved,
and
the
project
report
shows
that
they're
not
resolved
now.
I
realized
the
developer
applicant
just
spoke
to
them,
but
they
need
to
be
resolved.
U
I'm
not
going
to
go
over
them
and
use
up
my
time
for
reviewing
zoning
applications.
It's
required
that
all
political
subdivisions
providing
services
to
the
site
are
given
a
chance
to
comment.
We
heavily
emphasize
this
in
the
PUD.
The
Eagle
fire
district
was
not
solicited
for
comments.
They
frequently
provide
service
to
Northwest
Boise
they're,
not
on
the
transmittal
document.
There
are
no
comments
from
Eagle
Fire
District
and
this
transmittal
documents,
not
in
your
report,
so
you
can't
even
see
who
was
or
was
not
solicited
for
comments.
U
The
fire
department's
comments
only
applied
to
compliance
with
international
fire
code.
They
do
not
comply
with
the
comprehensive
plans
policy
for
the
adopted
level
of
service
standard
for
fire
response.
The
local
land
use
planning
act
specifically
says:
school
districts
are
to
participate
in
the
planning
process
and
the
development
process
regarding
public
school
capacity
and
transportation.
Your
packet
does
not
have
this
letter
in
it.
Neither
did
the
planning
of
zonings
package.
The
planning
and
zoning
meeting
was
in
February.
This
letter
is
dated
May
14th.
Please
read
this
section
right
here.
U
U
The
textual
evidence
of
a
fire
response
data
is
never
included
in
these
analysis,
even
though
the
comprehensive
plan
policy
says,
maintain
and
I
put
staffing
levels
and
continue
to
improve
response
times,
we're
not
improving
response
times,
we're
getting
worse
and
we're
putting
the
entire
city
at
an
increasing
risk
for
harm
here's
the
data
we
were
within
our
standards
in
2004
we've
grown
tremendously
last
year.
This
it
shows
that
we
have
an
average
7
minute
12
seconds
bonus
time,
that's
not
safe.
U
The
compass
comput
comments
reinforce
the
fact
that
the
new
york's
fire
station
is
not
within
the
response
standard,
even
though
the
comprehensive
plan
says
require
for
adequate
public
facilities
and
develop
them
and
maintain
them.
According
to
the
standard
and
note
here
also,
it
says
the
nearest
police
station
is
2.5
miles
away,
that
is
the
Eagle
police
station.
U
U
Finally,
with
the
procedures
and
decisions,
you
are
supposed
to
rely
on
the
standards
and
so
far
they're
not
going
to
go
over
this.
You
know
this.
The
reasoned
decision
criteria
is
supposed
to
be
in
the
best
interest
of
the
public
convenience
in
general.
Welfare
I
want
this
to
be
noted
in
the
record,
when
this
area
was
annexed,
this
criteria
actually
said,
provide
and
maintain
sufficient
transportation
and
other
public
facilities
and
will
not
adversely
impact
the
delivery
of
services
by
any
political
subdivision
providing
services.
That
was
a
criteria
when
we
were
annexed.
U
The
criteria
now
me
is
just
a
name,
but
it's
bad.
There
example
evidence
that
undue
burden
adverse
impact
exists.
There
are
strong,
factual
evidence
that
we
do
not
have
the
public
safety
infrastructure,
nor
the
funding
to
support
a
reason
to
hire
density.
At
this
time,
we
ask
that
you
use
your
power,
your
duty
and
your
obligation
to
mitigate
the
burden
on
the
system
and
the
adverse
effects
you
can
use.
U
The
phasing
aspects
that
are
allowed
in
the
code
here
are
some
of
the
things
that
we
would
like
to
see
condition
the
approval
based
on
a
fully
constructed
connecting
road
to
bogart.
It
shows
that
on
the
schematic,
but
it's
not
guaranteed
right
now.
This
would
resolve
the
school
transportation
issues,
because
those
children
could
walk
that
road
and
connect
to
the
Coulson
apartment
complex
and
then
all
those
kids
could
be
picked
up
in
one
place.
They
could
also
have
a
secondary
fire
access
through
that
road.
So.
U
Lane,
that's
scintilla
ACH
D
for
2022
additional
crosswalk
at
state
and
Bogart,
so
that
when,
if
a
bus
stop
and
abandoned
shelter
are
available
there
that
someone
can
safely
cross
resolve
the
issues
with
ITV
and
secure
a
compensation
based
automatic
aid
service
contract
with
the
yo
fire
district
right
now,
we're
relying
on
mutual
aid
and
a
fire
response
list
is
not
what
this
area
was
annexed
based
upon.
Thank
you.
A
T
My
name
is
Dennis
989
forty
North
Duncan
Lane
Boise
Idaho
83-71
for
I,
began
serving
students
as
a
teacher
in
coach
in
1979
in
Blackfoot
Idaho,
since
that
initial
Abbie
and
I
have
served
as
a
counselor
teacher
school
administrator
for
the
last
12
years
serving
and
supporting
Idaho
educational
leaders
as
a
leadership
consultant,
I
have
worked
in
Idaho,
Alaska
and
Panama
City
Panama.
Although
I
have
been
in
various
settings
in
different
parts
of
the
world,
there
is
one
constant
in
working
with
students
and
their
families.
T
Parents
and
their
families
want
in
fact
demand
two
things
that
their
child
is
safe
and
that
their
child
is
taught
well.
You
will
notice,
as
student
safety
is
the
absolute
first
priority.
Student
safety
starts
with
the
child
getting
to
school
in
the
morning,
or
at
least
a
non-normal
non-coated
19
times,
and
hopefully
we'll
get
back
to
that
soon.
The
proposal
before
you
does
not
answer
a
fundamental
question:
how
will
these
children
safely
navigate
getting
to
school?
T
The
Boise
School
District
letter,
which
Erica
a
reference
of
May
14,
clearly
expresses
serious
concerns
and
asked
for
a
bus
pull
out
area
for
the
students
living
in
the
proposed
development.
To
date,
we
have
not
seen
or
heard
of
any
plan
to
accommodate
this
request.
This
project
does
not
meet
one
of
the
mayor's
stated
goals
of
a
safe
and
livable
city.
How
can
it
when
our
most
precious
resource
our
children
are
put
at
risk?
This
project
does
not
meet
the
criteria
set
forth
in
lieu
lupa
67-65.
T
All
two
states
that
the
purpose
of
this
act
shall
be
to
promote
the
health,
safety
and
general
welfare
of
the
people
of
Idaho
again,
when
our
children
are
at
risk
that
this
is
not
in
place.
Most
importantly,
this
project
does
not
meet
the
standard
I'm
answering
this
question.
Would
this
be
good
enough
for
my
children?
My
grandchildren
I.
Ask
you
this
question.
Would
this
be
good
enough
for
your
children,
your
grandchildren,
your
nieces,
your
nephews?
T
We
simply
cannot
continue
to
promote
development
without
the
appropriate
infrastructure
in
place
as
more
more
recently,
an
XYZ
is
considered
for
development.
This
situation
before
you
will
come
up
again
and
again,
will
you
make
the
difficult
yet
appropriate
decision
to
hold
on
development
until
it
can
be
done
responsibly?
T
O
Q
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
No
apologies
needed
Robin,
locket
sub
287,

Oh,
gharlane
boy,
c8
371
for
two
things.
Please
leave
that
north/south,
ditch
open
it's
a
simple
period.
Leave
that
open
number
two
I
want
to
call
into
question
the
North's
future
access
point
on
the
plot
that
was
shared
by
mr.
Letson,
those
by
the
private
property
rights
of
the
members
of
the
West,
be
selfish,
they're,
very
old
and
they're
very
legally
binding.
Q
Furthermore,
I
appreciate
the
questions
and
concerns
of
councilperson,
Halliburton
and
others
earlier
tonight,
because
I
think
you
should
be
very
cautious
about
approving
plots
to
speculatively
with
too
much
in
question
regarding
pathways.
Easements
future
links,
canal
considerations,
water
waters,
all
we've
got
in
this
state.
It's
huge
and
additional
environmental
issues
to
boot
that
we
haven't
even
began
to
talk
about
so
with
that.
Q
Also,
there
are
potential
legal
ramifications
of
the
decision
that
you
make
tonight
because
of
those
issues
and
I
hope
that
you'll
tread
lightly.
You'll
take
your
time
and
you
really
take
my
comments
to
heart-
resolve
the
issues.
First,
please
we
know
this
area,
we
ask
for
your
support
to
say
no
to
the
undue
burden
and
the
inadequate
infrastructure.
Q
C
Q
Q
Schofield
presented
in
our
neighborhood
report,
his
sidewalks
really
are
hit
or
miss
I
think
it's
on
the
screen
right
now.
If
you
can
see
that
North
West
polity
policies,
Public
Service
facilities,
slide
you'll,
see
a
lot
of
red
you'll
see
some
green
and
the
Green
has
been
good
as
new
development
comes,
there's
been
some
sidewalks,
but
then
there's
been
development
approved
without
sidewalks.
Q
Q
It's
a
busy
street
Bogart
is
one
of
the
main
north-south
connections
from
the
Greenbelt
up
to
the
foothills.
So
there
are
a
lot
of
bike
commuter,
fronds,
witty
uses
it
regularly
to
go
back
and
forth
to
the
dump,
as
do
a
lot
of
other
folks,
and
so
there's
big
traffic
big
trucks,
as
those
kids
are
trying
to
get
to
school.
Q
Q
A
P
So
we
are
at
90
165
West,
State
Street,
exactly
across
the
street
from
the
subject.
Property
I'm
actually
wasn't
planning
on
speaking
tonight,
but
I've
had
so
much
fun
on
zoom
that
I'm
just
gonna
go
on
a
roll
here,
so
I
we
actually
built
the
building
that
we're
in
that
arne
laine
plaza
it's
a
commercial
project,
there's
probably
eight
or
nine
office
buildings.
We
built
that
back
in
1998,
so
I
am
extremely
familiar
with
this
space.
I'm
extremely
familiar
with
this
intersection.
I
am
just
to
clear
it
up.
P
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
project,
I
think
that
it's
a
great
addition
to
this
area,
you
know
I
was
a
little
disappointed
that
video
that
was
shown
in
the
slides.
You
know
because
of
the
light
at
Bogart
and
because
of
the
light
at
highway.
55,
that's
not
shown
in
this
slide
there's.
Actually
a
lot
of
breaks
in
traffic
I
get
out
off
of
Arnie
Lane,
almost
well
I
do
every
single
day
several
times
a
day.
It
is
a
non-issue.
P
I
also
want
to
speak
on
behalf
of
tiling
that
ditch
I
think
that's
probably
the
best
idea.
I've
heard
in
all
of
this
report
I've
seen
several
cars
in
that
ditch
over
the
years
we've
been
like
said
there
since
98,
so
I
think
that's
a
great
effort.
I
have
worked
with
several
irrigation
districts.
I
know
what
a
challenge
that
could
be
and
I
applaud
the
applicant
for
for
doing
that.
The
other
actually
I
want
to
speak
about
is
affordable
housing.
P
We
have
an
affordable
housing
issue
in
our
Valley
and
until
we
create
more
projects
like
this,
we
are
going
to
continue
to
have
an
affordability
issue.
The
median
house
price
in
Ada
County
right
now
is
four
hundred
and
twelve
thousand
dollars.
That
is
a
huge
huge
amount
for
a
first-time
homebuyer
second
time,
homebuyer,
really
anybody
local
that
is
trying
to
buy
a
home
I,
also
wanted.
P
You
know
in
the
in
the
slide
and
the
presentation
from
the
Neighborhood
Association
they
commented
on
McLaurys
pub,
which
is
directly
across
the
street
from
you
know,
I,
look
at
it
all
day,
every
day
from
my
office.
Yes,
that
is
a
very
popular
place
to
be,
but
it's
also
on
the
off
hours.
So
it's
after
your
5
o'clock
traffic,
you
know
obviously
there's
there's
not
a
lot
of
traffic
in
the
early
morning
to
after
work
hours,
so
I,
really
even
just
kind
of
speaking
to
that
being
in
the
neighborhood.
P
R
R
Drive
connects
hundreds
of
homes
that
have
access
to
State
Street
at
one
location
here
on
our
Arnie
Lane,
or
they
have
access
to
Bogart
or
yes
to
Bogart,
not
Bogart,
but
Gary
Lane,
and
so
this
is
the
main
thoroughfare
access
for
hundreds
of
homes
in
Garden,
City,
Riverside
Drive
that
whole
subdivision-
and
this
is
also
where
the
Greenbelt,
which
runs
along
the
north
side
of
the
river
through
Garden
City.
This
is
where
it
exits
onto
State
Street.
So
you
have
bicycle
paths
way.
R
You
have
pedestrian
pathway
on
Arnie
Lane
exiting
onto
State
Street
with
no
sidewalks,
but
that
combination
with
the
cars
and
the
trucks
that
are
coming
out
of
the
subdivision
on
to
State
Street
at
a
five
lane
road
with
a
55
mile,
an
hour
60
mile,
an
hour
traffic,
all
right,
we're
creating
an
accident
zone
and
hopefully
itd
will
require
a
deceleration
lane
or
something
as
you
enter
and
exit.
This
project,
but
right
now
you
have
no
sidewalks
and
the
the
future
of
accidents
on
this
intersection
just
increases
by
putting
and
dumping
in
the
apartment
complex.
R
At
this
point,
I
appreciate
that
we
have
a
new
police
chief,
good
job
and
look
forward
to
the
community
policing.
The
Northwest
neighborhood
area
was
annexed
years
ago
and
we
have
zero
neighborhood
policing
in
that
in
our
area.
So
we
look
forward
to
working
with
him
and
hopefully
additions
of
police
officers
so
that
he
can
have
the
kind
of
officers
he
needs
the
number
of
officers
so
that
you
can
have
the
community
police
officers
designated
in
our
neighborhood.
R
We
were
annexed,
we've
had
very
little
infrastructure,
put
into
place
and
millions
of
dollars
of
taxes
paid
to
the
city
of
Boise,
so
look
forward
to
more
infrastructure.
Fine
one
hundred
percent
support
the
comments
and
the
information
that
you
received
from
our
Neighborhood
Association
police,
fire
and
transportation
sidewalks,
and
please
go
out
and
finish
our
Park
Forest
Magnolia
Park.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank.
A
O
E
A
E
M
Mayor
customer
click-
that
is
a
privately
piece
of
property,
and
certainly
that
would
be
ideal
if
we
could
create
a
direct
connection
from
this
site
out
to
bogart
and
I.
Believe
that's
well.
That
is
why
we
requested
those
stubs
located
here
in
the
eastern
side
of
the
property
to
facilitate,
at
some
point
that
type
of
connection
and
I
think
if
we
look
at
the
site
plan
yeah,
we
have
one
here
in
the
northern
portion
and
one
down
below
which,
if
we
look
at
that
aerial
doesn't
exactly
line
up
with
this.
M
M
Speaking
just
looking
at
this
after
some
comments
are
made
about
sidewalks,
certainly
getting
to
bogart
from
here
is
challenging.
However,
if
we're
able
to
zoom
out
there
will
be
continuous
sidewalk
across
this
entire
front
of
the
project
that
will
connect
to
an
existing
pathway.
It
doesn't
appear
to
be
a
maybe
88
compliant
sidewalk,
but
it
is
an
asphalt
pathway.
Some
of
what
we've
seen
on
like
Pierce,
Park
and
other
places
like
that
and
from
there
there
is
a
there's
sidewalks
all
the
way
to
Sloane
Street
and
the
elementary
school
over
here.
M
So
it's
a
bit
out
of
direction,
obviously,
to
make
people
travel.
That
way,
certainly
would
be
a
safer
option
than
trying
to
walk
along
unimproved
property
along
State
Street.
But
it's
answer
your
question.
Yes,
there
you
know
the
West
D
subdivision
as
I
understand
that
some
developers
have
taken
a
run
at
trying
to
to
redevelop
those,
and
there
are
some
really
significant
CCR's
there
that
have
made
it
challenging
for
anyone
to
do
something.
That
being
said,
I
think
it
is
certainly
something
in
the
future
that
could
occur
so.
M
Metameric
leg
probably
better
to
speak
to
the
applicant
about
their
construction
schedule.
However,
there's
no
plat
associated
with
this,
so
once
the
ordinance
is
in
place,
we
can
accept
construct
well
and
ER
is
approved.
We
can
accept
construction
permits
and
you
know,
conceivably
by
the
end
of
summer,
early
fall.
This
could
be
under
construction,
but
I'll
defer
to
them
to
speak
about
phasing
and
timelines.
Thank.
E
A
Thank
you
all
right
with
that
Richard
you
may
unmute
and
go
ahead.
Just
please
give
your
name
and
address
for
the
record.
W
Great
thank
you
Richard

Ninety
170
Hill
Road
a
while
back.
We
met
with
a
CHD
Commissioner
Jim
Hanson
to
talk
about
how
growth
was
being
handled
in
Northwest,
Boise
and
suddenly
my
notes
disappeared,
okay
and
how
it
relates
the
transit
oriented
development
along
State
Street
highway
44.
He
suggested
we
call
for
a
moratorium
on
growth
in
our
neighborhood
until
the
ambiguities,
lack
of
coordination
and
failure
is
an
influence
in
State.
Street
corridor
plan
could
be
resolved.
W
At
that
point,
we
didn't
have
much
experience
with
the
planning
and
permitting
process,
so
we
didn't
really
grasp
the
importance
of
his
suggestion.
Well,
we
do
now
that
has
become
clear.
Since
then,
the
high
quality
development
will
not
occur
in
our
neighborhood
through
the
status
quo
process.
Here
we
are
continuing
to
see
voice
to
ignore
the
concerns
of
itd,
just
as
they
did
with
their
concerns
regarding
limelight
last
week
in
prominence
last
year.
This
was
we
expect
the
cooperation
of
IG
Depot
State
Street
corridor.
W
Why
do
we
have
a
pattern
of
ignoring
their
safety
concerns
on
individual
development
permits
here?
We
also
see
that
the
concerns
of
the
Boise
school
district
to
have
been
ignored
any
of
the
passes
any
guide.
We
won't
have
any
transit
at
all
within
walking
distance
for
another
decade
or
two
bad
information
precludes
good
quality
design.
The
applicant
was
given
incorrect
info
regarding
the
irrigation
easement,
as
we
have
shown
in
the
record.
That's
an
easement
by
prescription
only
and
the
prescription
is
15
feet.
W
That's
critical,
because
the
State
Street
Quarter
plans
are
explicit
in
the
potential
for
making
livable
developments
by
incorporating
waterways
in
the
daylight
as
you're
doing
downtown
more
ever
federal
agencies
overseeing
transit
funding
score
more
than
just
whether
a
city
has
up
zone
2
highway.
They
score
grants
more
favorably
and
there
is
the
carefully
organized
density
along
the
corridor.
The
safe
Armand
protect
existing,
affordable
housing,
rural
character
and
historical
assets,
and
in
doing
so
earned
the
trust
and
cooperation
neighborhoods,
so
zoom
handsome
is
right.
W
A
moratorium
would
allow
planners
to
take
more
time
to
resolve
the
concerns
of
all
political
subdivisions
and
agencies
and
ensure
the
decisions
were
being
made
on
accurate
information.
A
moratorium
would
allow
the
actual
State
Street
plans
to
materialize.
So
staff
didn't
just
have
to
guess
at
the
future
widening
or
the
installation
of
a
pedestrian
walkway.
A
moratorium
would
allow
the
city
to
make
good
on
promises
to
build
fire
stations
and
they
CHD
to
build
sidewalks.
A
moratorium
conditioned
on
an
actual
bus.
W
Stop
at
Bogart
would
focus
the
lobbying
power
developers
on
getting
it
done
just
down
to
the
Highland
Road
Street
see
BHS
allowed
32
townhomes
to
sit
empty
for
almost
a
year
and
hasn't
built
the
next
133
units
that
have
been
permitted
for
years
entitling
more
developers
here
won't
help
with
housing
if
they
aren't
selling
or
letting
people
live
in
the
houses
they've
already
built.
So
let's
declare
a
moratorium
on
growth
and
Northwest
Boise
as
a
solution
until
we
can
get
it
right.
Thank
you.
A
A
A
X
Name
is
jim
meiyan,
I
love
that
304
North
archer
Boise
Idaho
and
I'm
the
principal
in
charge
of
South,
Beck
and
Barrett,
representing
Kelly
kitchens
in
this
project.
I
just
wanted
to
add
a
couple
notes:
I
think
with
the
I
understand
the
growth
concerns
with
the
with
the
neighborhood
group
I
think
we
try
to
address
them
as
successfully
as
we
could.
X
We've
proposed
a
project,
that's
actually
a
third
of
the
density
that
the
city
actually
wanted
to
have,
as
well
as
having
almost
six
times
the
open
space
connectivity
in
all
directions,
as
requested
regarding
the
fire
access
and
a
single
point
of
fire
axis,
which
was
approved
by
the
city
or
by
by
the
Fire
District.
We
also
have
an
emergency
access
to
the
West
that
we
could
tie
into
it
hasn't
been
requested
yet,
but
we
can
definitely
make
that
change
in
the
design
review
meeting
tomorrow
regarding
prior
maracle's
good
to
hear
hear
from
him.
X
The
Greenbelt
is
on
both
sides
of
the
river,
as
it
goes
through
Riverrun
and
doesn't
end
at
State
Street
per
se.
So,
there's
not
a
massive
intersection
hazard
issue
with
our
knee
and
very
few
people,
myself
being
a
triathlete,
would
ever
ever
travel
State,
Street
on
a
bicycle
on
a
good
day
or
floating
and
as
well
I
think
I
understand
a
lot
of
the
challenges
and
requests
and
by
the
the
neighborhood
group,
as
was
the
which
includes
some
of
the
folks
from
the
Westby
subdivision.
X
We
did
have
an
access
point
with
an
Associated
developer
to
the
parcel
to
the
to
the
east
and
that
was
actually
shot
down
by
the
HOA
restrictive
covenants
and
it
was
gonna
be
built
at
eight
units
per
acre.
So
at
some
point,
I
think
we
have
to
meet
in
the
middle
for
connections
to
the
north,
piping
or
untying
of
the
irrigation
ditch,
which
is
piped
as
it
runs
on
the
west
boundary
of
Westby
and
trying
to
work
together
to
develop
a
connection
to
Bogaerts
which
is
currently
being
denied
by
those
HOA
agreements.
X
Y
Y
I'm,
testifying
opposed
to
the
silo
project.
I'm,
an
occupational
health
nurse
of
35
years
and
I
have
concerns
about
the
health
and
safety
of
people
who
will
live
in
this
project,
specifically
the
poor
air
quality
from
living
so
close
to
the
State,
Street
transportation
corridor
and
all
of
its
huge
plans
for
the
volume.
There
are
many
excellent
scientific
studies
that
support
that
people
experience
ill
health
effects
when
they
live
near
high
levels
of
fine
particulate
matter.
Y
In
fact,
this
week
there
was
a
study
that
came
out
from
the
American
Public
Health
Association,
to
study
the
poor
air
quality
linked
to
higher
Kovach
19
deaths.
Researchers
at
Harvard
released
a
national
wide
study
in
April.
Finding
that
kovat
19
patients
who
lived
in
places
with
historically
high
levels
of
fine
particulate
matter
or
pollution
were
more
likely
to
succumb
to
the
virus
and
patients
who
lived
in
communities
with
clear
air.
Y
So
when
people
move
into
this
project
and
realize
they're
bombarded
by
air
pollution
and
noise
pollution,
they
might
want
to
walk
or
bike
to
the
neighborhood
Magnolia
Park
on
Bogart.
But
how
can
they
get
to
the
park
safely?
They
can't
pouring
out
on
a
stage.
Street
has
been
illustrated
with
55
miles
per
hour
traffic
and
no
sidewalks
to
walk
on
the
poor
air
quality
and.
I
Y
The
heart
has
no
sidewalk
improvements,
although
they've
been
promised,
we're
still
waiting,
a
solution
could
be
easements
and
I
appreciate
the
reference
to
councilmember,
Halliburton
and
I.
Think
the
lane
were
trying
to
discuss
that.
We
have
to
spend
the
last
two
years
developing
a
neighborhood
plan,
and
there
should
be
some
concern
for
an
overlay
of
our
neighborhood
plan
and
some
of
those
components
as
we
move
along
here.
Please
consider
the
health
and
safety
of
people
will
be
living
in
these
projects
that
you
are
creating.
We
need.
A
I
A
Y
A
Great
okay,
you
could
hand
the
phone
over
to
them.
Thanks
and
Neil.
Will
you
please
give
your
name
and
address
for
the
record
and
then
we're
gonna
take
a
quick
break.
We
did
not
expect
this
to
head
this
long,
because
this
was
listed
as
a
rezone
rather
than
what
we
you
know.
The
the
conversation
we've
had
tonight
so
I'll
hear
from
Neil
and
then
we're
gonna
take
a
five-minute
break
all.
Z
Right,
my
name
is
Neil
Parker
and
I
reside
at
88,
95
Hill,
Road,
Boise
I'm,
not
in
favor
of
this
development
being
approved,
but
I'd
like
to
comment
on
a
comment
on
it
in
a
more
general
way
than
some
others
have
tonight.
Much
of
Northwest
Boise
was
forcibly
annexed
against
the
will
of
a
majority
of
residents
in
a
fairly
devious
two-part
process.
Z
A
few
years
ago,
in
exchange
for
an
average
of
38
percent
or
more
increase
in
property
taxes,
the
city
was
legally
bound
to
provide
public
facilities
and
services
equitable
to
that
provided
to
the
rest
of
the
city.
Have
these
facilities
and
services,
especially
those
relating
to
fire
protection,
been
delivered?
No,
they
haven't
yet.
The
city
heedlessly
continues
to
approve
development
after
development
without
regard
for
essential
infrastructure
that
should
be
built.
Z
First
loop,
ramp,
Boise,
directs
the
city
to
approve
developments
for
only
the
portion
of
the
project
that
is
consistent
with
table
3
level
of
service
standards
for
community
services
and
facilities,
table
3
intern
specifies
standards
and
10
categories,
the
first
of
which
is
fire
protection.
The
standard
for
fire
protection
is
no
more
than
one
and
a
half
miles
from
a
station
and
no
more
than
a
four
minute
response
time.
Z
The
letter
reads:
over
the
past
32
years
there
have
been
promises
on
paper
of
fire
stations
in
order
to
approve
developments
and
for
26
years
ordinance
55:17
has
been
in
place
to
ensure
that
fire
protection
is
addressed
in
land
use
law,
but
real
fire
stations.
The
kind
that
could
put
out
fires
have
not
been
built
in
the
Northwest
planning
area.
During
this
time,
the
City
of
Boise
has
annex
land
in
the
northwest
and
foothills
areas,
subjecting
persons
and
property
to
voices,
police,
Boise,
police
regulations
and
increased
taxation,
while
not
extending
the
benefits
incident.
Z
The
civic
government.
All
of
this
begs
the
question
of
whether
Northwest
Boise
was
annexed
to
embrace
its
residents
and
the
equitable
facilities
and
services
of
the
city,
or
primarily,
to
raise
revenue.
A
1905,
Supreme,
Court
ruling
on
the
purpose
and
intent
of
annexation
stated
the
following:
municipalities
are
not
devised
for
the
purpose
solely,
nor
chiefly
of
raising
revenue.
Z
The
power
of
extending
corporate
limits
is
granted
not
to
be
resorted
to
for
the
purpose
alone
of
increasing
the
income
of
the
municipality,
but
in
order
that
the
benefits
incident--,
the
civic
government
may
be
extended
to
those
residents
in
the
territory
adjacent
to
the
municipality,
I
think
it
would
be
interesting
to
survey
North
West
Boise
ins
to
see
if
they
feel
they
have
been
benefited
or
exploited
by
annexation.
Is
there
a
solution
to
these
discrepancies
and
failures?
A
moratorium
on
development
development
is
one
possible
answer.
Z
I
A
Whose
screen
that
is
okay,
now
we
will
hear
rebuttal
from
the
applicant
five
minutes.
N
I
S
Madam

got
a

of
comments
tonight.

kind
of
opened
the
door
for
a
whole
lot.
More
than
just
read

I
S
So
basically,
we
we
address.
As
you
all
know,
most
of
the
comments
have
to
do
with
pedestrian
connections,
infrastructure
traffic
concerns
and
the
in
a
lot
of
those
elements
have
to
do
with
coordination
with
other
entities.
Other
agency,
besides
the
voice,
besides
just
the
City
of
Boise
and-
and
we
are
trying
to
do
that-
and
we
are
gonna-
do
that.
S
We
we
do
provide
pedestrian
connections
across
our
entire
front
edge
that
connects
to
the
sidewalk
along
State
Street
Advan
conducted
Lane.
We
do
have
a
pedestrian
connection
that
runs
north-south
on
the
west
property.
We
have
connections
sidewalks
all
through
north,
south,
east
and
west,
throughout
our
our
development,
and
then
we
have.
We
have
a
pedestrian
connection,
also
at
an
irrigate
or
a
drainage,
district
maintenance,
road
along
the
north
and
the
east
property
lines
we
have.
S
It's
just
it
comes
down
to
you
know
a
timing
issue,
all
the
infrastructure,
all
the
pedestrian
connections.
They
don't
happen
until
development
occurs.
What
the
reason
this
area
doesn't
haven't:
have
the
sidewalks
curb
and
gutter
and
the
whole
nine
yards
is
it's
largely
undeveloped,
except
for
what's
happening,
the
impacts,
that's
happening
in
the
development
up
towards
Hill
Road
itself
and
where
all
the
sidewalks
are
in
the
park
is
and
and
what-have-you
in
the
schools.
S
From
a
timing
perspective
for
this
project,
we
are
in
in
the
final
stages
of
construction
documents,
which
means
that
we
anticipate
submitting
for
a
building
permit.
Should
we
gain
your
approval
from
the
rezone
and
meet
the
conditions
that
may
be
imposed
by
the
design
review
committee
and
and
so
yeah
you're
gonna
see
construction
to
timing-wise
on
our
project
in
the
next
two
or
three
months.
S
As
long
as
the
building
permit
process
takes
with
the
building
department,
let's
see
in
the
school
district,
they
did
respond
to
the
dr
allocation
with
comments
outside
of
just
the
normal
bounds
of
their
here's.
What
schools
their
form
letter?
Here's,
what
schools
these
folks,
these
kids
will
attend.
They
actually
put
two
comments
on
their
letter
that
a
neighbor
district
or
the
Neighborhood
Association
showed
and
Leon
has
a
copy
of,
and
and
dr
has
a
copy
of,
and
basically
one
of
them
was.
We
don't
want
to
stop
a
school
bus
on
State
Street.
S
S
You
know
the
bus
has
ample
room
to
turn
around
and
pull
back
down
on
the
State
Street.
So
we've
addressed
that
they
also
would
like
you
know,
pedestrian
connections
and
we've
provided
all
of
those.
So
those
things
that
we
can
do
within
the
bounds
of
our
project.
There
are
a
lot
of
other
connecting
properties.
S
Undeveloped
that
you
know
will
provide
additional
infrastructure,
but
we
can't
we
can't
force
a
road
across
the
private
property
to
the
east.
We
can't
force
a
road
to
the
north
can
build
sidewalk
across
private
property
along
State
Street
for
that
matter.
So
you
know
we're
really
trying
to
be
good
neighbors
and
you
know
fit
the
bill.
A
good
project,
quality
project
in
and
you
know,
meet
the
code
in
the
comp
plan
and,
and
hopefully
we've
done
our
job
without
Stanford
questions.
N
Yeah
and
maybe
I
can
just
take
a
couple
moments,
so
you
know
as
a
developer
when
you
start
looking
at
a
project
like
this,
you
meet
with
with
the
city
you
meet
with
itd
you
find
out,
the
requirements
are
and
then
basically
you
bet
your
life
savings
on.
So
it's
not
like
I'm,
some
rich
developer,
I,
pretty
much
invested.
Everything
I've
got
to
make
this
happen
and
we
didn't
all
based
upon
what
we
were
told
needed
to
be
done,
and
so
I'm
just
gonna
quote,
commissioner
blessed
be,
and
what
he's
I'm.
A
And
if
I
undo
it
now
and
give
you
extra
time
and
allow
you
notice,
because
a
citizen
I
have
to
go
that
back
to
the
Neighborhood
Association
do
the
same.
So
we
are
going
I'm
gonna
ask
staff
to
if
a
not
staff,
I'm
gonna
ask
Council
if
they
have
any
questions
for
the
applicant
or
staff
before
we
close
this
hearing
on
a
rezone.
A
A
E
M
L
A
E
E
You,
madam
mayor,
I,
appreciate
the
concerns
we
heard
tonight,
but
those
concerns
were
really
applicable
to
the
PUD
I
wish
I
had
the
PUD
before
me,
but
it
was
not
appealed.
I
frankly
have
concerns
that
it's
probably
not
dense
enough
on
the
edge
of
State
Street
and
with
more
density.
You
probably
could
ask
for
more
infrastructure.
It's
pretty
hard
to
ask
for
anything
more
than
what
is
being
proposed
with
this,
but
none
of
that
spoke
to
what
we
have
before
us
tonight,
which
is
the
rezone.
The
rezone
is
supported
by
the
comp
plan.
E
Quarters
of
a
mile
or
almost
2/3
of
a
mile,
so
it
really
isn't
that
far
out
of
direction
and
should
be
passable
if
kids
will
choose
to
use
that
it's
it's
certainly
within
walking
distance.
As
that's
considered,
the
fire
station
is
under
design
right.
Now
it's
going
to
be
designed
next
year,
it's
going
to
be
built
a
following
year
as
this
Neighborhood
Association
is
well
aware.
We
have
a
process
with
all
of
the
fire
departments
around
here
about
joint
service
and.
C
E
It's
true
that
Eagle
provides
a
little
bit
more
in
this
area.
Then
the
city
provides
back
to
them.
If
you
look
overall
between
all
of
the
districts,
particularly
Boise
Eagle
and
Meridian,
it's
quite
well
balanced.
Frankly,
who
gets
what
and
how
it
works,
and
that's
done
to
save
taxpayer
money.
I
guess
we
could
duplicate
services
and
ask
all
of
you
to
pay
more
money,
but
I
don't
think
in
the
end.
L
I
would
echo
the
council
president's
comments.
This
is
the
rezone.
It
is
consistent
with
the
Comprehensive
Plan
it
is.
It
is
the
density
that
we
want
along
the
transportation
corridor
where
we
are
planning
for
transportation.
This
is
the
objective
for,
for
this
part
of
the
city
and
for
our
city
as
a
whole.
The
concerns
the
primary
concerns
that
I
heard
tonight
had
to
do
with
connectivity
and-
and
that
is
it,
concern
that
the
applicant
is
right.
They
can,
they
can
only
do
what
they
can
do
with
their
property.
L
L
If
they
could
they've
done
a
lot
with
the
piece
that
they
have,
the
other
concerns
that
I
heard
frankly
had
to
do
with
other
political
subdivisions
I'm,
not
in
a
position
you're.
The
third
thing
that
the
letter
from
the
Boise
school
district
said
was
this
application
complies
with
all
of
our
requirements
and
so
I'm
not
in
a
position
to
second-guess
their
decision.
Based
on
what
I
have
here,
we
have
this.
The
same
is
true
with
our
fire
department's
memo.
We
have
approvals
from
the
political
bodies
that
are
the
experts
in
making
these
decisions.
F
Thank
you,
I'm,
going
to
be
supporting
the
motion.
I
think
that
Jay
did
a
great
job
of
responding
to
some
of
the
concerns
and
I
believe
that
those
concerns
can
mostly
be
addressed
within
the
Design
Review,
at
least
the
specifics
to
this
property,
which
it
sounds
like
the
they'll
be
going
to
great
lengths
to
remedy
some
of
those
concerns
to
at
least
their
ability
and
I.
F
C
Yeah
I
would
echo
some
of
the
things
that
the
other
council
members
said.
I
do
hear
the
the
neighbors
concerns
and
I'm
always
going
to
advocate
for
kids
being
able
to
get
to
school
safely.
I
did
the
same
I.
Think
mapset.
Council
president
Clegg
did
I
got
one
point
one
miles
as
opposed
to
one,
but
about
a
tenth
of
a
mile
difference
by
going
back
over
to
Duncan.
I
also
know
that
kids
go
the
straightest
route
most
the
time
and
and
so
I
definitely
understand
that
I
think
with
the
concerns
of
connectivity
that
are
there.
C
I
do
hear
the
applicant
and
saying
that,
with
this
particular
piece
of
property,
we're
doing
all
the
things
that
we
can
do
to
create
those
connections.
I
think
some
of
those
future
connections
are
really
really
exciting
and
they
will
lead
towards
some
of
those
things
that
the
neighbors
are
asking
for.
Yes,
it
would
be
great
if
they
were
in
place
right
now
and
I
think
that
that
is
one
of
the
complicated
things
about
about
this
neighborhood
and
so
I
think
that
those
concerns
are
definitely
real.
A
L
W
A
All
right
thanks
everybody
for
joining
us
on
this
one
I.
Don't
worry
we're
not
we're
not
turning
off
the
city
council
meeting
we've
got
another
item,
but
thanks
all
who
came
for
come
for
the
State
Street
one
PUD
19
42.
Is
it
Mary,
Houston
and
neighbors
at
40,
an
appeal
of
the
48:31
North
5
Mile
Road
PNC
Commission
approval
of
a
Cu
P.
A
So
on
this
one
we
have
Coco
D
a
new
person
presenting
welcome
Cody
and
then
the
appellant
Mary
human,
the
applicant
will
be
represented
by
Deborah
Nelson,
and
then
we
will
have
the
Neighborhood
Association,
which
is
West
Valley,
but
it
looks
like
they
are
not
planning
on
attending
and
then
we
have
a
list
and
Amanda
does
as
well
of
parties
of
record.
That
will
first
call
out
for
testimony
and
then
we'll
see.
If
anybody
else
is
here
and
with
that
go
ahead.
Cody.
AA
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
members
of
council.
This
item
is
an
appeal
of
the
planning
and
zoning
Commission's
approval
of
a
16
unit
plan
unit
development
that
includes
15
attached
units
and
is
an
existing
single-family
home.
The
1.4
acre
site
is
located
in
northwest
corner
McMillan
5-mile
roads
in
West
Boise,
the
site
again
is
currently
occupied
by
that
single-family
home
that
will
be
retained.
AA
Adjacent
uses
include
office,
single-family
homes,
a
residential
care
facility
and
a
church.
You
have
two
of
the
city's
primary
transit
routes
along
adjacent
streets,
Valley,
Regional,
Transit
and
they're
in
their
comments
identified
or
clarified
that
these
routes
are
high,
ridership
backbone
elements
of
of
their
system.
You
also
have
an
elementary
high
school
and
several
parks
within
one
mile
of
this
site,
the
comprehensive
plan
and
the
comprehensive
plan.
This
intersection
is
identified
as
a
neighborhood
Activity
Center.
AA
Obviously
you
already
have
as
I
noted
it,
a
quite
a
mix
of
uses
and
a
number
of
desirable
amenities
in
the
area.
I
think,
what's
notably
micked
missing,
though,
is
a
diversity
in
housing.
This
project
will
provide
that
some
of
that
diversity
at
a
density
that
is
consistent
with
the
vision
of
the
comprehensive
plan.
The
plan
suggests
a
range
of
8
to
16
units
per
acre
or
higher
in
these
activity,
centers
with
an
appropriate
design.
AA
AA
The
need
for
some
of
the
parking
they've
been
designed,
as
you
can
see,
like
townhomes,
with
individual
front
doors,
oriented
to
the
public
streets
and
then
private
back
patios.
This
design
actually
integrates
quite
well
with
other
housing
in
the
area.
So
again,
this
item
was
appeal
was
unanimously
approved
by
the
Commission
back
in
February.
AA
That
decision
was
appealed,
which
is
why
we're
for
you
this
evening
there
were
essentially
three
grounds
included
in
the
memoranda,
traffic
compatibility
and
a
suggestion
that
the
decision
violated
state
law
I'd
like
to
touch
on
just
each
of
those
briefly
regarding
traffic,
the
appellant
is
questioning
a
CH
DS
approval
and
perhaps
some
of
the
projected
traffic
counts.
A
CH
did
a
CH
D
did
confirm
that
capacity
is
available
on
area
roadways,
including
both
5-mile
McMillan.
The
applicant
will
close
one
driveway
on
five
mile
and
two
McMillon.
AA
The
only
access
that
will
remain
is
actually
proposed
as
far
away
from
the
intersection
on
five
mile
as
possible.
From
a
safety
perspective,
the
applicant
is
replacing
attached
sidewalk
on
each
roadway,
with
deep
new
detached
sidewalk
and
again.
As
a
reminder,
the
site
is
supported
by
public
transit.
AA
The
applicant
will
also
be
required
to
improve
transit
stops
on
each
of
those
streets.
So
from
our
perspective,
we
don't
see
where
the
appellant
identified
an
error
on
the
part
of
the
Commission
as
it
relates
to
transportation.
As
far
as
compatibility,
the
appellant
suggests
that
the
project
is
incompatible
with
the
neighborhood.
They
do
cite
a
concerns.
It
appears
with
two-story
buildings
and
the
fact
that
a
lot
of
the
homes
in
the
area
are
our
single-story
I.
Think
it's
important
that
we
recognize
the
height
limit
of
the
project.
AA
Site
is
45
feet
and
the
height
limit
on
the
surrounding
properties
are
35
and
on
many
45
feet
themselves.
I
think
we
need
to
remember
that
this
is
designated
as
an
F
neighborhood
activity
center,
with
transit
already
in
place.
I
think
there's
a
reasonable
expectation
that
in
an
interstate
at
an
intersection
like
this,
it
will
support
more
than
single-story
single-family
residences.
So
again
we
don't
see
where
there's.
AA
Demonstrated
on
the
part
of
the
Commission,
their
decision
was
based
on
the
facts
and
evidence
presented,
including
existing
ordinance
standards
and
the
adopted
plans.
The
final
ground,
the
appellant
cites
some
general
areas
where
they
disagree
with
the
decision
of
the
Commission.
They
make
a
general
reference
to
surrounding
uses
and
that
they
might
be
negatively
impacted.
However,
they
don't
appear
to
cite
specific
evidence
that
wasn't
wasn't
considered
in
the
decision.
The
code
is
clear
that
where
there
is
room
for
two
or
more
opinions,
action
is
not
arbitrary.
AA
If
it's
exercised
honestly
and
with
due
consideration
of
the
facts
and
evidence
that
was
presented
in
our
mind,
the
record
demonstrates
that
that
was
the
case
here.
The
Commission
had
ample
written
evidence
and
only
made
a
decision
after
weighing
testimony
by
staff,
applicant
and
the
public.
So
in
conclusion
we
are
recommending.
AA
We
don't
see
where
there
was
an
error
identified
on
the
Commission's
decision
or
the
man
or
a
process
by
which
it
was
reached.
So
we
are
recommending
denial
of
the
appeal
this
evening.
Just
as
a
reminder,
testimony
will
be
limited
to
parties
a
record
this
evening
and
you
should
have
that.
Have
that
list
before
you
I,
wouldn't
know
that
to
help
us
some
of
the
size
size
of
the
crowd
this
evening
and
avoid
some
of
the
exposure.
AA
D
AA
A
AB
AB
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
Santa
City.
Council
I
appreciate
your
time
and
I.
Really
thank
you
for
your
careful
attention
to
the
matter
here
at
hand
to
the
permanence
of
your
decision.
We,
the
residents
of
the
area
affected
by
this
proposed
project,
are
deeply
concerned
about
the
well-being
of
everyone
living
in
this
neighborhood
I
would
begin
with
the
issue
of
traffic
traffic.
AB
Public
testimony
has
already
documented
the
traffic
congestion
at
congestion
at
the
intersection
of
five
mile
in
McMillan
roads,
a
CH
D
improved
this
budget
project
based
on
traffic
counts
from
one
and
a
half
and
two
years
ago,
as
we
all
know,
tremendous
growth
in
population
has
occurred
in
the
couple
of
years.
A
CH
D
did
not
require
a
traffic
impact
study
on
this
project.
AB
This
development
is
estimated
to
generate
110
additional
vehicle
trips
per
day,
and
it
says
that

Policies
for

is
blaring,
enjoying
that
they
would
ignore
their
own
policy
to
greenlight
this

a
CH

regarding

there's

and
a

AB
But
here
are
the

and
recommendations

the

Chand
should
be
approved
as
proposed,
but
the
proposed

of

287

north
of
Macmillan

does
not
meet

a
location
policy
which
requires,
as
I
said
earlier,
the
330
feet
in
the
660

Minimum
minimums.
AB
However,
staff
recommends
a
modification
of
policy
to
allow
the
driveway
to
be
located,
as
proposed
as
a
temporary,
full
access,
driveway
driveway,
due
to
the
fact
that
the
driveway
location
is
existing
and
is
the
only
driveway
proposed
for
the
development.
The
limited
the
limited
site
frontage
of
270
feet
does
not
allow
the
driveway
placement
to
meet
spacing
requirements
from
the
intersection
to
the
south
and
spacing
requirements
from
existing
residential
driveways
to
the
north.
There
are
several
existing
driveways
onto
five
mile
road
that
prohibit
the
applicants
from
meeting
driveways
spacing
requirements.
AB
The
driveway
cannot
be
located
in
further
north
of
the
intersection
due
to
irrigation,
ditch
equipment
and
residential
driveway
conflicts,
and
the
driveway
is
taking
access
onto
five
Mile
Road,
which
has
a
lesser
traffic
count
than
McMillan
Road.
Therefore,
the
staff
recommends
the
approval
of
the
driveway
onto
five
Mile
Road
is
temporary,
full
access
driveway.
This
driveway
may
be
restricted
to
write
in
write
out
only
at
any
time
at
the
discretion
of
a
CHD,
and
they
say
this
is
a
57%
modification
of
policy
and
approved
at
the
deck
deputy
director
engineering
level.
AB
Now
the
developer
verifies
270
feet
of
frontage
on
five
Mile
Road.
The
approval
is
for
a
temporary
full
access,
driveway
that
at
the
discretion
of
a
CHD,
you
may
be
changed
to
a
right
in
right
now,
only
driveway,
despite
all
the
ways
that
the
proposed
driveway
does
not
comply
with
district
policy,
the
staff
recommended
a
57%
modification
of
policy
and
then
approved
it.
In
reality,
it
is
more
like
66
percent,
since
the
comparison
should
be
based
on
the
full
movement
driveway
that
was
approved.
AB
There
is
no
timeline
for
the
designation
to
change
and
the
full
access
driveway
can
remain
as
such
for
many
years.
Perhaps
the
latest
concern
for
traffic
safety
as
well
as
pedestrian
and
bicycle
safety
and
potential
conflicts
between
drivers
and
pedestrians.
Bicyclists
is
the
left
turn
conflicts
that,
in
all
probability,
will
occur
between

traveling
on

on
five
mile,
turning
left
into
the
site
and
vehicles
traveling
south
on
five
mile
and
turning
left
onto
McMillan.
AB
The
likelihood
of
left
turning
conflicts
will
only
increase
as
vehicle
trips
increase,
which
most
assuredly
will
occur
as
development
continues
to
occur
to
occur
in
basing
the
developer
cites
the
limitations
of
the
parcel
and
ask
for
special
approval
to
proceed
despite
being
the
wrong
project
for
the
site.
This
intersection
is
very
tight
and
very
crowded
in
the
mornings
and
evenings.
Consequently,
we
have
witnessed
many
many
crashes
at
or
near
the
intersection
due
to
impatience,
carelessness
and
people
trying
to
speed
through.
AB
AB
There
are
left
turn
lanes
on
all
four
directions
of
the
intersections,
resulting
in
a
total
of
eight
lanes
of
traffic
and
four
bike
lanes
on
the
combined
east,
west,
north
and
south
directions,
and
this
driveway
is
270
feet
from
the

This
does
not
mean
a
CHP
policy,
not
even
in
the
most
generous
measurement.
It
is
obviously

This
will
create
an
unworkable
traffic
condition.
AB
Assuming
this
driver
eventually
is
designated
right
in
write
out,
the
residents
will
have
no
choice
but
to
use
local
neighborhood
streets
to
access
the
driveway
if
they
approach
them
from
the
east,
south
and
west.
These
streets
are
not
their
affairs
but
residential
streets,
though,
for
access
to
individual

located
on
the

There
are
no

The

asserts
in

areas
of

that
the

will
not
adversely
affect

will
complement

If

this

that

Please
take
the
times
to
see
some
of
the
residents
who
have
given
support
to
this
appeal
during
the
condition
deliberations
after
the
public
hearing
was
closed.
Some
of
those
statements
by
the
commissioners
were
questionable
and
appeared
to
be
arbitrary
and
capricious,
for
example,
finition
or
Gillespie
stated.
It
is
clearly
called
out
in
the
comprehensive
plan.
This
is
an
area
where
we
are
trying
to
encourage
denser
development.
AB
AB
Exactly
as
it
appears
on
the
line
used
map,
the
Court
emphasized
our
holding
is
supported
by
a
large
body
of
case
law,
which
states
that
comprehensive
plans
do
not
themselves
operate
as
legally
controlling
zoning
law,
but
rather
serve
to
guide
and
advise
the
various
governing
bodies
responsible
for
making
zoning
decisions.
The
present
factual
circumstances
surrounding
PUD
1942
must
be
considered
because
the
Commissioner
Gillespie
also
stated
because
the
City
Council
has
made
a
determination
that
they
want
density
in
places
like
that.
AB
Like
this,
that
is
the
city's
council's
view,
and
that
is
what
we
are
here
to
implement.
That
position
indicates
that
the
Commission
shall
implement
density
density
and
approve
every
conditional
use
permit
throughout
the
lod
zoned
areas.
This
makes
no
sense
if
the
pnz
Commission
exists
to
implement
every
request
for
density,
because
the
city
has
decided
it
wants
density.
What
is
the
purpose
of
the
pnz
Commission
other
than
to
represent?
Whatever
directive
comes
from
the
city?
A
Your
time
at
left,
so
we're
gonna
have
to
move
to
the
next
person.
Thank
you
there,
but
before
we
move,
I'm
gonna
ask
if
there,
if,
council
members,
have
any
questions
for
the
appellant.
V
We
agree
with
staffs
conclusions
that
the
appellant
has
not
identified
any
error
by
the
Commission
and
so
I
can
keep
this
pretty
brief.
I
just
want
to
highlight
a
few
features
about
the
property
and,
if
you're,
the
criteria
that
the
Commission
look
to
in
approving
this
I
think
it's
important
to
note
at
the
outset.
V
You
know
that,
maybe
to
state
the
obvious
that
this
property
is
already
zoned,
L
o
and
the
developers
not
coming
in
to
ask
for
any
reason
we're
just
looking
to
do
a
project
that
is
consistent
with
the
zoning
that
the
city
has
already
designated.
It's
also
as
staff
noted
designated
as
a
neighborhood
activity
center
within
your
comprehensive
plan,
and
so
the
both
the
zoning
in
the
comprehensive
plan
not
only
support
this
use,
but
a
much
more
intense
and
dense
use.
V
The
the
developer
took
care
here
to
make
sure
that
what
they
were
proposing
was
not
only
consistent
with
your
plans
and
your
zoning
ordinance,
but
also
was
compatible
with
the
surrounding
neighborhood,
and
so
they
look
to
the
buildings
and
homes
that
are
around
them:
they're,
surrounded
by
a
church,
a
senior
living
facility
offices
and
single-family
homes
on
the
west
and
the
north.
These
are
a
mix
of
one
and
two
stories
what's
proposed.
Here
is
two
stories
29
feet
at
its
peak.
V
These
units
are
designed
carefully
to
look
like
individual
townhomes,
with
covered
entries
and
individual
front
doors
and
back
patios.
The
setbacks
were
actually
increased
above
what
would
normally
be
required
in
the
ellow
zone
to
be
the
same
as
what
applies
an
r1
C
on
the
single-family
homes
that
surround
the
parking
is
screened
by
the
buildings
and
the
landscaping
and
the
new
fence.
V
All
of
these
features
were
done
to
create
compatibility,
even
though
they
all
so
really
are
doing
more
than
is
even
required
for
this
zone
and
the
appellant
raised.
Some
concerns
about
traffic
I,
the
AC
HD
report
concludes
that
surrounding
streets
will
continue
to
operate
an
acceptable
level
of
service.
With
this
project,
both
a
five-mile
and
McMillan
have
counts
above
ten
thousand
trips
a
day.
This
this
project
will
add
110
and
only
nine
and
the
PM
peak,
as
appellant
noted.
V
As
far
as
the
driveway
location,
I
think
the
language
that
the
appellant
read
explains
a
CH
DS
reasoning
for
allowing
the
driveway
where
it
is.
It
is
the
only
location
that
could
work
on
this
site
and
only
one
access
is
being
sought
for
that
reason
between
the
irrigation,
the
existing
driveways
and
the
m5
mile
being
the
less
intensive
of
traffic
Street.
That
is
the
location
where
it
would
have
to
go.
The
parking
that's
being
provided,
exceeds
code
requirements
with
32
spaces
and
only
19
are
required.
V
I
want
to
address
the
felons
argument
when
they're
looking
to
Luca-
and
we
address
this
in
a
written
briefing
as
well,
and
the
reference
to
the
general
purpose
statement
of
Luba
to
say
that
the
Commission
is
obligated
to
make
those
findings
is
a
misstatement
of
the
applicable
law.
Certainly,
the
purpose
statement
of
Luba
is
important.
It
includes
a
number
of
items
of
which
you
know
that
would
be
applicable
here
if
it,
if
it
fit
the
criteria
to
encourage
urban
and
urban
type
development
within
incorporated
cities.
V
V
I,
don't
disagree
that
the
comprehensive
plan
is
a
guidance
document
not
in
and
of
itself
the
zoning
law,
but
here
it's
very
important
to
note
that
your
zoning
ordinance
for
approval
of
the
PUD
does
require
the
Commission
to
look
to
consistency
with
the
comprehensive
plan,
and
so
the
the
Commission
did
exactly
what
they
are
required
to
do
by
your
PD
criteria.
To
look
there
because
the
appellant
has
not
identified
any
error
in
what
the
Commission
did.
They
just
don't
want
this
development
next
to
them.
They
don't.
V
They
don't
want
this
development
to
occur,
but
that's
not
a
basis
for
finding
error.
They
have
not
actually
identified
a
an
error
in
law
or
in
process.
They
haven't
identified
anything
been
supported
by
substantial
evidence
and
based
on
the
appeal
standards
and
the
Boise
City
code.
In
those
circumstances,
the
council
should
deny
the
appeal
and
uphold
the
Commission's
findings
and
with
that
I'd
stand
for
any
questions.
A
A
O
A
Right
just
to
explain,
miss
Avery.
This
is
an
appeal,
so
only
parties
of
record
are
able
to
testify
and
this
appeal,
which
means
that
you
had
to
have
submitted
comments
or
been
present
for
the
last
hearing.
If
you
are
representing
someone
else,
will
you
please
chat
to
Amanda
brown
or
chat
to
everyone
and
let
us
know
and
then
we'll
determine
whether
or
not
we
can
move
you
in
the
participant
status,
but
for
a
while?
A
Well,
while
that
might
be
happening,
Mary
Houston
is
still
with
us
as
a
panelist
and
I
have
here
that
you'll
be
reading
a
statement
for
two
parties
of
record
Gertrude
and
Jim
Hudson,
and
the
reason
we
are
allowing
this
is
because
of
the
access
to
technology.
Mary
asked
that
although
I
see
a
Jim
and
Gertrude
Hudson
listed,
so
let's
see
Mary
will
you
let
us
know
it
was
our
understand
that
you're
gonna
have
to
read
for
Jim
and
Gertrude.
However,
I
see
a
dream
and
Gertrude
listed
here
now.
Yes,.
AB
AB
Okay,
this
is
a
statement
from
Gertrude
Hudson
at
5:03,
8
North
leather
place
a
person
of
record
as
part
of
an
appeal
of
the
approval
given
February
10
2020
to
a
vet
to
allow
apartments
to
be
built
on
the
northwest
corner
lot
of
five
mile
in
mcmillan
roads
as
a
longtime
resident
of
the
adjoining
hickories
three
subdivision
and
as
an
architect
and
designer
of
three
homes
and
hickories.
I
would
like
to
challenge
the
claim
that
the
developers
made
that
the
that
the
proposed
development
is
compatible
with
existing
uses
in
the
neighborhood.
AB
There
is
no
compatibility
between
a
large
four-plex
or
seven
Plex
apartment
building
and
a
single-family
home,
even
a
two-story
home.
The
two
are
distinct
forms
of
architecture.
It's
like
saying
that
a
housecat
is
compatible
with
a
grizzly
bear
because
they
both
have
four
legs
and
fur.
The
developer
says
that
the
modulation
of
the
apartments
facades
will
give
them
the
appearance
of
townhomes.
AB
No
amount
of
modulation
of
the
facade
will
alter
the
fact
that
these
will
be
apartment
buildings,
with
a
very
large
in-your-face
presence,
especially
when
sitting
side
by
side,
as
in
the
case
of
the
two
four
classes
on
McMillan
Road.
The
change
in
the
makeup
and
feeling
of
the
settled
neighbors
neighborhood
would
be
dramatic
and
have
a
permanent
negative
impact.
In
addition,
I
would
like
to
dispute
the
claim
that
the
developer
has
to
provide
an
adequate
private
outdoor
space
for
each
family
unit.
AB
As
an
amenity
105
to
126
square
feet
is
about
the
size
of
a
small
bedroom.
Then,
if
you
divide
that
space
between
the
front
and
rear
of
each
unit,
it
would
be
hard
to
call
the
spaces
adequate.
The
small
space
is
behind.
The
units
were
also,
of
necessity,
contain
the
air-conditioning
units
further
cutting
down
on
the
usable
space.
Not
only
are
these
spaces
inadequate
in
size,
but
they
are
certainly
not
private,
especially
the
ones
facing
McMillan
Road.
None
of
the
spaces
have
any
fencing
which
would
ensure
privacy
or
security.
AB
AB
AB
I
have
just
three
items
for
your
consideration,
so
my
observation
is
that
a
person
should
have
more
than
superficial
information
before
rendering
judgment
is
considering
and
concerning
a
project
first,
recognizing
that
the
printed
proposal
for
this
project
is
impressive.
Well-Written,
well-researched
and
very
persuasive
I
would
immediately
state
that
if
a
person
had
only
studied
the
proposal
as
I
did,
then
I
believe
that
person
would
without
hesitation
approve
the
project.
AB
Those
large
block
buildings
just
don't
fit
in
this
situation,
and
because
the
existing
house
on
the
proposed
property
is
quite
old,
there
would
be
no
problem
for
the
developer
to
get
approval
in
the
future
to
raise
that
building
and
build
even
more
apartments.
Second,
the
proposal
states
more
than
once
that
the
project
is
compatible
with
all
of
the
existing
structures,
including
the
eighteen
immediately
surrounding
homes.
The
proposal
even
states
that
the
15
units
in
the
proposed
3
block
block
buildings
would
complement
and
enhance
the
surrounding
area.
AB
Making
a
comparison
of
the
existing
homes
and
the
proposed
units
is
illuminating.
Each
of
the
existing
homes
have
one
house
to
go
out
to
car
garage,
a
driveway
leading
to
the
residential
street,
a
securely
fenced
back
yard,
which
is
safe
for
children's
playgrounds
and
secured
for
five
private
family
activities.
None
of
the
15
proposed
units
have
any
of
these
features
compatible.
Each
of
the
existing
homes
have
several
bedrooms
and
always
one
bedroom
or
more.
On
the
main
floor,
all
of
the
proposed
units
have
two
bedrooms
both
on
the
second
floor.
AB
This
is
very
significant
because
if
there
are
no
bedrooms
on
the
main
floor,
the
unit
is
not
suitable
for
elderly
people,
handicapped
people,
families
with
babies,
families
with
small
children
compatible.
Third,
we
were
dismayed
at
the
demeanor
and
attitude
of
the
permit
personnel
of
the
PNC
Commission
on
hearing
hearing
on
February
10th.
When
the
presentations
were
completed,
we
knew
why
there
was
no
discussion
or
consulting
among
the
commission
members.
Mr.
Gillespie
gave
the
rationale
for
their
decision.
His
explanation
was
a
firm
declaration.
AB
AB
If
this
is
actually
the
reality
of
decision
making,
then
it
is
obvious
that
since
housing
for
all
our
most
lod
zones
is
a
priority,
regardless
of
the
situation
or
the
feelings
of
the
citizens
involved,
perhaps
the
conclusion
of
Fagan
in
the
movie
Oliver
is
appropriate,
as
he
contemplated
the
ramifications
of
a
marriage.
I
think
I
ought
to
think
it
out
again.
Perhaps
dense
housing
should
not
be
the
primary
focus
of
the
city
planners.
Perhaps
compatibility
in
citizens.
Feelings
ought
to
be
prime
considerations.
That's
the
end
of
mr.
Hudson's
statement.
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
doing
that.
I
appreciate
it
as
a
way
for
them
to
access
this
right
now,
you're
right
now,
I
have
here
I'm,
not
so
I'm
just
going
through
parties
of
record.
It
doesn't
mean
I
just
realized.
It
doesn't
mean
that
everybody's
here
or
speaking,
another
party
of
record
is
an
West
who
is
presenting
with
Kevin
controlling
slides,
oh
I,
so
analyst
has
already
been
approved.
Okay,
so
you're
not
in
the
attendee
list,
you're
in
the
panelist
list
and
miss
West.
Would
you
like
to
go
ahead?
Yes,.

good
evening,
madam
mayor
and
councilmembers.
Thank
you
for
hearing
the
points
of
our
appeal.
We,
the
appellant,
representing
hundreds
of
certain
property
owners
who
will
be
impacted
by
the
proposed
conditional
use,
permit
development
on
a
corner.
Five-Mile
McMillan
I
have
three
major
concerns:
traffic
congestion
density
and
Idaho
Code
first
I
lived
two
blocks
from
this
intersection
and
am
very
alarmed
that
we
could
potentially
add
15
to
45
vehicles
to
this
intersection
during
peak
commuting
hours.
D
Currently,
traffic
exiting
east
and
west
off
chindan
Boulevard
on
to
five
Mile
Road
backs
up
from
chindan
to
McMillan
Road
during
these
heavy
traffic
times,
and
this
will
only
add
more
traffic
delays
to
the
south
of
McMillan
Road
about
four
years
ago
there
was
a
road
rage
incident,
one
half
mile
from
this
intersection
on
five
mile
and
Edna
that
ended
unnecessarily
in
the
death.
Almost
five
weeks
ago,
two
teens
tragically
lost
their
lives
at
the
five
mile
McMillan
intersection
into
the
memory
care
facility.
D
The
current
road
layout,
with
only
two
lane,
traffic
going
north
and
south
and
east
and
west
of
this
intersection,
does
not
allow
for
this
increase
in
traffic.
There
is
no
median
lane
for
residents
going
in
or
out
onto
five
Mile
Road.
It
won't
take
long
for
drivers
to
become
frustrated
as
travel
delays
increase
and
the
intersection
becomes
more
congested
and
less
safe.
More
importantly,
if
full
access
is
granted,
the
record
fails
to
demonstrate
that
no
turning
conflicts
would
occur
so
close
to
this
intersection.
Therefore,
access
should
be
limited
to
right
in
right
out
only.
D
Secondly,
the
proposed
apartment,
complex
density
at
11
units
per
acre,
does
not
fit
in
with
a
surrounding
stable
low-density
single-family
neighborhoods
at
six
units
per
acre
or
business
models
like
the
Covenant
Presbyterian
Church
medical
offices
and
senior
memory
care
facility
all
located
on
the
corner
of
this
intersection
and
by
the
way
they
both
have
access.
All
three
have
access
on
five
mile,
as
well
as
McMillan
and
two
times
the
density.
This
development
is
not
compatible
with
a
neighborhood
subsection
6
conditional
use,
permit
C
procedures,
step
7
parentheses,
a
roman
uma.
D
I
third
the
violation
of
code:
six,
seven,
six,
five,
zero,
two
local
land
use
planning
act
impacts
the
development
would
have
on
McMillan
elementary
school
were
neither
Dredd
addressed
nor
considered.
I
have
spoken
to
seventy
neighbors,
who
have
voiced
their
concerns
to
me
in
support
of
this
appeal
due
to
the
additional
traffic
congestion,
as
well
as
the
safety
for
the
elementary
school
children
as
homeowners
and
our
subdivisions
we
have
CC
and
ours
to
follow.
D
A
A
All
right,
thanks
for
being
here
now,
the
other
parties
of
record
one
we
don't
know
if
she
planned
to
speak
was-
is
Brenda
Oscar
out
Oscar
who'd
out.
A
A
Don't
see
Patrick
either
or
Rick
Visser,
don't
see
Rick
all
right,
and
that
concludes
the
parties
of
record
for
this
appeal,
and
so
with
that
I'm
gonna
ask
count.
0:08
sorry,
the
appellant
gets
yeah
the
appellant
marry.
You
get
five
minutes
for
rebuttal.
A
V
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
members
of
the
council,
I
just
have
a
quick
additional
comment
in
response
to
what
we
heard
there.
There
was
a
concern
raised
complaint
about
the
private
open
space
as
an
amenity,
your
Planning
and
Zoning
Commission,
appropriately
determined
based
on
staff's
recommendations
for
the
amenities
that
serve
this
development,
including
the
private,
open
space,
energy-efficient
homes
and
the
drought,
tolerant
plants,
and
there
is
no
error
and
the
Commission's
findings
in
that
regard.
I'm.
The
other
concerns
that
we've
heard
raised
again
don't
amount
to
errors
by
the
Commission,
but
rather
are
just
wishing.
AB
Yes,
we
can
hear
you
now.
Okay,
thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
city
council,
I
hear
the
the
appellant
representative
saying
that
these
are
just
wishes.
They're
not
wishes.
There
are
facts
and
we
are.
We
are
presenting
the
facts.
We
live
in
this
neighborhood.
We
as
you
all
do
in
your
neighborhoods.
You
know
this
conditions
of
your
neighborhood
and
you
should
be
able
to
speak
up
and
testify
and
be
heard
of.
The
conditions
of
your
neighborhood
noisy
is
a
unique
city
with
pockets
of
rural
living
in
the
city.
AB
I
personally
think
this
is
one
of
the
things
that
positively
affects
visitors
and
prospective
residents.
It
certainly
x2
the
quality
of
all
of
us,
as
current
residents.
I,
do
believe
in
the
validity
of
encouraging
new
development
of
housing
in
appropriate
areas
of
the
city,
but
most
people
don't
want
to
see
every
open
space
filled
with
high-density
housing.
We
do
want
our
areas
of
stability
preserved.
AB
AB
Developments
that
would
detract
from
neighborhoods
that
comprise
the
overall
city.
We
all
call
home,
after
speaking
to
hundreds
of
Boise
ins
regarding
this
project.
I
can
honestly
say
that
no
one
is
against
developing
this
corner.
I
have
not
talked
to
a
single
person
that
is
against
developing
this
corner.
The
issue
at
hand
is
finding
the
right
project
that
will
properly
utilize
the
unique
characteristics
of
this
parcel
and
benefit
and
enhance
our
community,
because
some
thousands,
more
residents
of
the
West
Bend,
want
to
see
a
more
appropriate
use
of
this
of
the
parcel
in
question.
AB
The
permanent
impact,
our
neighborhood
is
drastic
and
we
all
understand
the
devastating
effects
of
a
wrong
decision
will
have
on
literally
thousands
of
boys
living
in
the
West
bench.
We
respectfully
ask
that
you
reverse
the
approval
of
this
PD
1942
and
deny
this
application.
Thank
you
for
your
attention.
I
appreciate
your
time.
Thank.
A
E
E
It's
clear
to
me
that
the
other
four
of
these
corners
or
the
other
three
of
this,
this
four
corner
intersection
already
have
other
uses
on
them
in
one
case
senior
housing
in
another
case
of
Church,
and
then
some
small
offices
as
I,
look
at
the
comp
plan
and
I
look
at
planning,
adding
a
relatively
small
apartment
complex
to
that
fourth
corner
is
in
fact,
is
in
fact
compatible
and
fits
in
with
and
in
the
long
run.
I
believe
will
be
very
supportive
of
helping
this
neighborhood
be
healthy.
E
Having
more
people
in
the
neighborhood
is
always
viewed
as
some
as
a
minus
or
many
times
in
these
in
these
hearings,
and
yet
maybe
it
will
be
the
person
who
lives
in
this
apartment,
who
will
shovel
the
snow
for
one
of
the
elderly
neighbors
or
something
else
you
never
know.
I
have
a
fourteen
unit
apartment
building,
kitty-corner
from
my
house.
It's
a
single-family
neighborhood
otherwise,
and
it
has
been
a
great
addition
to
my
neighborhood
because
it
provides
a
place
for
people
who
work
downtown,
who
otherwise
wouldn't
be
able
to
afford
to
live
near
their
work.
E
E
J
Member
weddings,
thank
you.
I
too,
could
not
find
any
error
and
on
the
part
of
PNC
Commission,
and
in
addition
to
that,
one
of
the
things
we
look
for
when
adding
more
types
of
residential
development
into
neighborhoods
is
the
proximity
to
schools
and
to
employment,
centers
and
I
think
that
this
one
provides
both.
So,
in
addition
to
not
finding
any
error,
I
think
that
this
is
a
good
development
in
a
good
spot.
Thank
you.
L
Couple
of
things
first
to
the
appellant
everybody
was
so
respectful
both
of
this
body
and
of
their
neighbors
and
facilitating
their
testimony
to
come
in
through
something
other
than
the
technology
platform.
I
really
appreciated
that,
and
it
allowed
me
the
carefulness
and
the
thought
with
which
you
all
put
together.
Your
arguments
allowed
me
to
really
hear
you
and
I
think
understand
you.
These
are
hard
and
they're
hard,
because
you're
right
and
they're
hard,
because
the
developer
is
right.
L
This
way,
I
can't
in
good
faith,
say
the
Planning
and
Zoning
Commission
was
arbitrary
or
capricious
so
I
want
you
to
know
that
I
hear
you
and
I
heard
you
in
particular,
because
you
were
so
kind
and
so
respectful
to
all
of
us
and
and
to
the
appellant
or
to
the
applicant
as
well
and
and
I
did
receive
and
understand
what
you
had
to
say.
I
can't
I
can't
actually
come
to
a
place
where
I
see
the
baseless
decision
by
the
Planning
and
Zoning
Commission.
So.
C
I
appreciate
a
councilmember
Beja,
bringing
up
the
extra
effort
that
it
took
to
make
sure
that
every
voice,
every
voice
was
heard.
I
think
that
that
is
a
big
deal
and
I'm
thankful
for
it.
I
don't
see
anything
either.
That
would
that
would
cause
me
to
not
be
in
favor
of
the
denial
I
do
want
to
make
sure
that
I
say
that
I.
C
Don't
think
that
this
is
just
neighbors
who
don't
want
something
in
their
backyard
when
there's
when
there's
two
deaths
that
recently
occurred
on
the
corner,
I
think
traffic
concerns,
speed
and
congestion
are
real
and
I
think
that
those
are
definitely
things
that
need
to
be
addressed
as
well
again.
I,
don't
see
a
reason
to
overturn
that
appeal,
but
I
do
want
to
recognize
that
that
is
beyond
just
not
wanting
to
have
it
in
your
neighborhood.
A
B
L
F
A
And
just
before,
we
adjourn
I
too
want
to
thank
the
public
for
joining
us
this
evening
and
for
the
appellant,
the
applicants
and
everyone
that
came
before
that's
already
left.
Thank
you
for
engaging
in
this
new
way
for
your
patience
with
us,
as
we
figure
it
out.
A
But
that
worked
and
then
I
had
this
one
where
I
could
see
people
but
we're
all
learning
where
to
look
so
we
can
look
at
the
public
and
others
just
and
really
appreciate,
and
the
people
tonight
that
work
together
to
figure
out
how
to
help
I'm
each
and
every
one
of
you
that
were
parties
of
record
testify,
I'm
so
thanks
so
much
to
the
public
for
joining
us
for
our
first
hybrid
meeting
and
we'll
be
back
next
week
at
six
o'clock.
Take
carol!
Oh
no
I!
Guess
we
have
to
have
emotion
before.
E
I
make
a
motion
to
adjourn
I'd
like
to
also
thank
the
public
for
being
so
respectful
and
engaging
in
this
new
way.
I
also
like
to
acknowledge
the
first
item
on
our
agenda
tonight
in
and
ask
that
we
have
a
discussion
about
what's
the
appropriate
way
for
council
to
engage
in
future
searches,
I
think
I
think
we've
heard
tonight
that
at
least
some
folks
feel
like.
Maybe
we
should
have
that
that
discussion
and
I'd
ask
that
that
you,
let
us
give
you
direction
about
how
we'd
like
to
engage.
Thank
you
with
that
I'd
move.
