(PUBLIC HEARING [QUASI - JUDICIAL]: CASE NO. ANN - 125 -06, A REQUEST BY SALLIE PALLERIA AND
BRETT ANTHON FOR ANNEXATION OF .33 ACRES LOCATED AT 1005 W. LINDEN WITH AN R -1
[ SINGLE - FAMILY RESIDENTIAL] ZONING)
The Mayor explained the quasi - judicial process and asked those that were signed up to speak to stand and be sworn in by
the City Clerk.
David Richey, Planner at 621 Cleveland Blvd., acknowledged being sworn in and gave the staff report
Councilman Hopper asked Mr. Richey if the property has curb, gutter and sidewalk on it. Mr. Richey replied that it does
not at this time. Councilman Wells pointed out that in the staff report under streets — it states that construction of curb,
gutter and sidewalk improvements will be required in accordance with City standards.
Councilman Hopper asked Mark Hilty, City Attorney, if the City could enforce a curb, gutter and sidewalk requirement at
this point unless it was a condition of the annexation. Mr. Hilty responded that this was correct. Councilman Hopper
continued that this condition would have to be added above and beyond this general statement in the staff report. Mr. Hilty
stated that this was correct.
Anne Marie Skinner, 2310 Wood Springs, acknowledged being sworn in and stated that she concurred with the staff
report. She indicated that, as previously discussed by Councilman Hopper, there would be no curb, gutter or sidewalk
required on this piece of property because the building permit was already issued under Canyon County and this was also
discussed at length with the Hearing Examiner.
Councilman Hopper stated that certainly as a condition of the annexation, the City could require that this condition be
there. Hopper asked that if this were a requirement, would she still want to connect to City services. Ms. Skinner replied
BOOK 47
PAGE 145
no, that this would not make any sense. She stated that nothing on either side of this property has curb, gutter or sidewalk
and nor in the foreseeable future would.
Councilman Hopper added that this particular piece of property was presented to the City Council a number of years ago,
along with the adjacent properties as a subdivision. City Council at that time insisted that the development concur with
City standards, which included curb, gutter and sidewalk. When the applicant was told that this was a requirement that the
City was not willing to waive, the applicant stated that she would develop underneath the County's standards. He stated
that this is clearly an attempt to take this property and bring it back into City services without the requirement of curb,
gutter and sidewalk. Councilman Callsen stated that he agrees with Councilman Hopper.
Councilman Dakan stated that the City struggles with a number of streets in the city that don't have paving or don't have
curb, gutter and sidewalk and the City struggles with trying to bring them into compliance. The determination was made a
long time ago that the purpose of curb and gutter was to maintain the integrity of the roadway.

MOTION CARRIED
(PUBLIC HEARING [LEGISLATIVE]: CASE NO. OA- 76 -06, A REQUEST BY THE CALDWELL
ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT TO ADOPT A STORM WATER MANAGEMENT MANUAL TO REPLACE
THE CURRENT MANUAL DATED MAY 2006)
BOOK 47
PAGE 146
David Richey, Planner at 621 Cleveland Blvd., introduced this item and relayed that the one condition that the Planning &
Zoning Commission placed on this as a recommendation was that the water used for testing the storm retention ponds be
taken from irrigation facilities or from some other source rather than potable water.
Gordon Law, City Engineer at 621 Cleveland Blvd., gave a brief history behind this request. The only difference between
this document and the one that was adopted in May is a request by the Planning & Zoning Commission that potable water
not be used for proof testing of the ponds. The basis for this is concern about the waste of potable water. The Engineering
Department has concerns about this limitation as there are seasons of the year in which proof - testing water is available out
of the ditches and seasons of the year when it is not. A typical size of a pond to be tested is approximately 10,000 cubic
feet and the dollar value of the water for testing this pond would be approximately $72. Mr. Law requested that Council
revisit this requirement.
There was discussion about potable and non - potable water and the proposed changes to the manual.
MOVED by Hopper, SECONDED by Oates to adopt the change to the manual, but adjust the language as it reads in 8.2 of
the staff report that storm water holding areas should be tested with irrigation surface water when available.

ROCK SUBDIVISION)
David Richey, Planner at 621 Cleveland Blvd., acknowledged being sworn in and gave the staff report
Ron Sargent, 1883 N. Wildwood Street, Boise, acknowledged being sworn in and spoke in support of this development.
He referred to the staff report, page 3, section 2.7.4 — staff recommends a stub street to the east; however, on page 6, public
works proposes a stub street to the west. The applicant proposes only one stub street to the south for safety of the senior
citizens in this development.
Sargent continued: The staff report requests that the applicant pay 24% of the off -site signal light (page 7). The applicant
requests that they get a dollar amount for this. Lastly, the staff report calls for more open space. As there are primarily
going to be seniors, staff felt that this was adequate amount of open space if it was primarily designed for seniors.
Councilman Blacker asked Mr. Sargent about two -story homes and asked if he would have a problem with a condition that
would restrict him from building two -story homes. Mr. Sargent replied that that would be fine.

MARBLE FRONT ROAD BETWEEN KCID ROAD AND SMEED PARKWAY WITH AN R -1 [SINGLE -
FAMILY RESIDENTIAL] ZONING, A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN MAP AMENDMENT, A DEVELOPMENT
AGREEMENT, AND PRELIMINARY PLAT APPROVAL FOR MARBLE CREEK SUBDIVISION)
David Richey, Planner at 621 Cleveland Blvd., acknowledged being sworn in and gave the staff report.
Wendy Kirkpatrick, 104 9"' Avenue S., Nampa, acknowledged being sworn in and spoke in support of this development.
She noted that there were a couple of issues in the staff report that she wanted to touch on. The first has to do with Dew
Drop Way and the extension of it. The Planning & Zoning Commission did not recommend that this be extended. They are
recommending, and Planning & Zoning has recommended, that we just retain one access point across the slough. The
BOOK 47
PAGE 148
second issue is the canal. They are providing a standard 8 -foot pathway on one side of the canal and on the other side of
the canal they are providing another pathway to the slough crossing.
Kirkpatrick continued: The third issue is the dedication of the right -of -way on Smeed and Marble Front There are a couple
of reasons why it is not feasible to provide this right -of -way or to do roadway improvements. The first reason is that a
chunk of the property is not the parent parcel for this development. There is no connection between this piece of property
and the development of this property. They have made an agreement with one of the neighbors that they would provide the
additional right -of -way so that they can do the full road improvements along KCID. She noted that there was a home
adjacent to Smeed that has an existing garage, which is actually located in the right -of -way. The do not have the ability to
get this right -of -way.
Kirkpatrick continued: She noted parts of the staff report that addressed these issues. The first issue addressing Dew Drop
Way is section 2.74 on page 3. The issue addressing the out parcels and the right -of -way dedication is section 2.75 on page
4. There is also a general condition addressing right -of -way, which would need to be modified, that is condition 12.13.
Also, condition 12.30 addresses the pathways on both sides of Solomon and where the City is requesting that they do a full
pathway on the west side and a partial pathway on the east side. She also noted that they were recommending not
connecting the roadway as stated in section 12.32. In section 12.34, she wanted clarification on the affidavit for the
parcels. They are willing to go in and have an agreement with the property owners of the parcel on KCID, but on the
northwest corner it is virtually impossible for them to go in and take the additional right -or -way.
Kevin Harris, 1059 E. Iron Eagle Drive, Eagle, declined to speak at this time
Kirby Clendenon, 4520 Marble Front Road, acknowledged being sworn in and raised concerns about this development as
it abuts his property and about the development of the road next to this property.
Jerry Rose, 4511 Marble Front Road, acknowledged being sworn in and raised concerns about the holding ponds being a
habitat for West Nile Virus.
Gordon Law, City Engineer, spoke about the retention ponds and the new storm water manual that was adopted tonight.
Mr. Law indicated that Smeed Parkway would be paved by the developer.
Don Clendenon, 4500 Marble Front Road, acknowledged being sworn in and asked about the improvements to Marble
Front Road and Smeed Lane.
David Weaver, 4825 Marble Front Road, acknowledged being swom in and asked about the second exit onto Marble Front
Road. He asked if Smeed Parkway was going to be paved. He is concerned about the increased traffic and indicated that a
signal light would be needed at the intersection of Hwy 20 -26 and KCID.
Ms. Kirkpatrick gave the rebuttal. They will do single story homes on the lots that are next to Mr. Clendenon's property
and asked to reserve the right to build bonus rooms on the single story homes. The developers would potentially be willing
to do road improvements if the right -of -way was dedicated by the property owners. It is difficult because the Clendenon's
have existing structures, a shop, tennis courts, and a property owner that would be requiring the developer to purchase this
right -of -way.
Ms. Kirkpatrick addressed the concerns of Mr. Rose and indicated that this is a changing area and a developing area With
regards to the ponds, they will be designed so that they are approved by the Engineering Department. She indicated that
there will be improvements to Smeed Road and they are proposing that they not provide a connection where Smeed Road
would connect with Marble Front.
Ms. Kirkpatrick addressed the concerns of Mr. Weaver about the stub streets onto Marble Front Road. It is their
recommendation that they not build this stub street onto Marble Front Road.
Mark Hilty, City Attorney, addressed issues that were raised concerning the out parcel and dedicated right -of -way. He
agreed that the City cannot impose a condition on the development that is out of the developer's control, but then to go
ahead and annex the property and approve it on those conditions. He suggested that before this property is annexed,
Council needs to find out if the right -of -way is something that the parties can work out between them and if it is not, then
Council will need to make a potentially difficult decision on whether this property is appropriate for annexation.
The Mayor noted that in testimony tonight, he heard both a willingness from Mr. Kirby Clendenon as well as Mr. Don
Clendenon that they would be willing to enter into discussions about this piece of property. He suggested that Council
continue this until these two parties can get together to discuss this and to see if there is something that can be worked out.
Councilman Hopper and Gordon Law discussed the connection of Dew Drop Lane, Lasser Lane, and Borcher Lane.
Ms. Kirkpatrick stated that if the Clendenon's were willing to dedicate 5 feet of right -of -way on Marble and Smeed, that
would enable them to complete the road sections and they would put in the road if the Clendenon's would, free of charge,
dedicate the 5 feet of right -of -way.
Ms. Kirkpatrick asked Council if they would give clear direction on the issues that they want resolved.
The Mayor indicated that the issues are the improvements along the Clendenon's property on both Smeed and Marble
Front Road. The issue of Oasis connecting and the entrance onto Marble Front Road as an access point, where Mr. Weaver
has indicated that he does not want this road facing directly into his property. Are there options to move it down or away
from his property or does it need to be there at all? There is concern about Dew Drop Lane and other connections such as
Lasser Lane or Borcher Lane. Councilman Hopper raised concerns about pathway requirements for Solomon Drain.

MOTION CARRIED
(PUBLIC HEARING [QUASI - JUDICIAL]: CASE NO. SUP- 270A -06, AN APPEAL BY JERRY AND TERRI
TIMMONS REGARDING THE HEARING EXAMINER'S APPROVAL OF A SPECIAL USE PERMIT
ALLOWING THE CITY OF CALDWELL TO CREATE A PUBLIC PARK IN A C -2 [COMMUNITY
COMMERCIAL] ZONE LOCATED AT THE CORNER OF KIMBALL AVENUE AND ARTHUR STREET)
Mark Hilty, City Attorney, 1303 12"' Avenue Road, Nampa, acknowledged being swom in and introduced this item. He
gave a background on this site and explained the appeal process. The specific intent when the City acquired this site was to
remove the dangerous condition, to remove the blight, and to help further the efforts that have been undertaken to
revitalize the downtown. The initial plan is to develop a small park, sometimes called a pocket park, at this location with
new sidewalks, landscaping, park benches, etc.
Hilty continued: There have been concerns that have been raised that are relevant to a land use decision and there have
been a lot of concerns that have been raised that are not relevant to a land use decision. He noted that this matter is the
subject of pending litigation. He listed issues related specifically to this appeal request and discussed the relevance and /or
lack of relevance of issues raised by the Timmons. He emphasized that this appeal is based on a land use decision.
Councilman Wells asked Mr. Hilty if he had a visual of what the park is expected to look like. Mr. Hilty presented a site
plan and the Mayor labeled it as CC -1000. There was discussion about sidewalks and easements at this site.
Ron McWilliams, 110 N. 9"' Street, acknowledged being sworn in and stated that he agrees with Mr. Hilty that regardless
of the decision that Council makes tonight, this case remains in litigation. He asked that Council reserve their decision on
this until the questions are answered in the proper forum. He noted that prior to the backfill and prior to the water coming
into the basement and expanding the mud, there were no cracks. There were small, tiny cracks in the Timmons' wall, but
they were of no consequence. Now, after this has happened, these cracks have significantly expanded and water pours at
times into this basement. He stated that the irrigation requirements to water the landscaping of a park would do further
damage to the Timmons' building.
McWilliams continued: In terms of opinions that have criticized the design of this backfill, he has an opinion from an
engineer with Tru- Engineering that was submitted to the Hearing Examiner. He recollected that the written opinion stated
that the design was faulty and that it does cause lateral pressure on the Timmons' wall, which could ultimately result in a
wall failure. He asked Council to reserve judgment on this because the Council does not have all the necessary
information.
Councilman Hopper asked Mr. McWilliams for the last date when water was pouring into the Timmons' building. Mr.
McWilliams stated that off the top of his head he could not give him an exact date, but he could tell him that it was
sometime this last spring when there was significant rain. Essentially, whenever there is any significant amount of
moisture introduced onto this ground, you can see it, water just drips through the cracks and accumulates on the floor
causing other problems.
Councilman Wells asked Mr. McWilliams if anything would change if this were to wait for a court hearing. Mr.
McWilliams replied that aside from the fact that the dirt is already in the hole and damages have probably already been
incurred, nothing would change. Just letting this property sit over the winter would not damage the City.
Dick Winder, 2810 Morning Mist Lane, acknowledged being sworn in and asked that Council consider turning this
proposal down as there are valid reasons to do so. As early as June 2005, American Geotechnics stated in a letter that the
City of Caldwell was going to build a park on this site. In July 2005, the Caldwell Economic Development Council wrote a
letter to Mr. C's stating that the City of Caldwell was going to build a park at this site. For more than a year the City has
known that a park was going to go here and that a special use permit was required. The City's code, section 10- 02 -02,
which is the land use schedule, requires that a special use permit be acquired for all other public uses. He believes that the
City has been in violation of the ordinance every since the project started. He would like to see Council deny the request,
establish some reasonable standards for development for a private owner to go into this lot, and then to sell the lot to a
private owner so that the City can accomplish what the Economic Development Department is trying to do with the
downtown.
Jerry Timmons, 22243 Rio Vista, acknowledged being sworn in and spoke about the history of this lot and the attempts of
filling in the hole at this location. He stated that he met with City staff and he wanted a concrete retaining wall poured up
against his building. He can't see where pouring another retaining wall, right flat up against his building, is going to
damage his wall anymore than the water and moisture that it has in it now.
The Mayor responded to Mr. Timmons that they went back out to try and find the best mechanism to protect his property
and to try to fill in this area so there was no blight. One of the concerns raised in the engineering study was that it was not
only lateral pressure that had to be taken into consideration, it was concern over continued settling of his building. The
concrete retaining wall was heavy enough that there were fears expressed in this engineering study that a concrete
retaining wall would actually cause damage to his building by settling. The action that the City took was far more
expensive than putting in a retaining wall. Mr. Timmons stated that he understood it was just the opposite.
Terri Timmons, 22243 Rio Vista, acknowledged being sworn in and asked Council if they had thought about what will
happen if a sprinkler line breaks. She stated that if a sprinkler pipe breaks, then it would be her that discovers it after it has
done damage to her property. She asked if Council were ready to pass this tonight with all of these legalities that do stand
in the way.
BOOK 47
PAGE 150
Jason Timmons, 3711 Brennan Drive, Nampa, acknowledged being sworn in and stated that he has nothing further to add.
He stated that he is in agreement with the comments made tonight. He referred to the property line and asked that if there
were any question at all, should it be the Timmons' responsibility of the City's responsibility to find out where the
property line exists. Mr. Hilty replied that it is the Timmons that have asserted that the property line exists one inch outside
the wall; however, there has been no proof of this. Legally, it would be the Timmons' burden to prove this.
Mr. McWilliams stated that this is being addressed in litigation and he would speak with Jason Timmons if he has further
questions regarding this.
Mark Hilty gave the rebuttal and a summary of the testimony given. He indicated that the issues and concerns brought up
tonight would be there regardless of what Council does with the site. It is the City's position, based on good engineering
evidence that the water conditions at this site are going to be dealt with based upon the construction dynamics. There was
the opinion that was offered by the Timmons' engineer. This engineer is now going to go before the Board of Engineers on
whether that was an appropriate opinion to issue. The City has constructed the project in a way that was recommended to
them by two engineering firms.
Mr. Hilty continued: He stated that he does have the letter that was submitted by Tru- Engineering and he will enter it as an
exhibit. He noted that Mr. McWilliams indicated in his testimony that the letter calls into question the lateral loading. The
letter does not; it talks only about the water. The Mayor labeled this letter as CC -1001.
Mr. Hilty continued: The one thing that is clear at the site is that the Timmons' walls on the north and south are not
retaining walls. Wherever the requirement for a retaining wall comes from, it did not apply to the Timmons. The City
initially looked at a reinforced concrete retaining wall at this location. It is tremendously heavy and it creates dramatic
vertical loading. All of the engineers that have looked at this have said that this would accelerate the settling and this
would cause the Timmons to be damaged. This was all explained to the Timmons. They were told that the City had
considered the retaining wall and that it would not work. The City showed the Timmons the foam block design that was
being recommended by the City's project engineers. The Timmons did not like this design and said they wanted the
retaining wall. The City offered to put the retaining wall in if the Timmons would indemnify the City from the damage that
it would cause. The Timmons refused to do this. The Timmons were insisting upon construction dynamics that the City
knew would cause a problem at the site; yet they were unwilling to indemnify the City.
Mr. Hilty continued: What this case really hinges on tonight is whether or not Council feels that the use of the property for
a park is different from the concerns that the Timmons have raised in the litigation. All of the same concerns that the
Timmons are voicing tonight would exist with virtually any use of the property and, in fact, exist with no use of the
property. Mr. Hilty submitted the American Geotechnics response letter and a letter dated February 24, 2003, which is a
result of Steve Hasson's inspection of the property that shows some of the cracking and water damage that existed almost
two years prior to the time that the City commenced the construction. The Mayor labeled the letter from American
Geotechnics as CC -1002 and the letter from Steve Hasson as CC -1003.
Councilman Oates asked Mr. Hilty that if Council takes action, as he has recommended tonight, what exposure does
Council face should the court rule against the City and in favor of the Timmons in their litigation. Mr. Hilty stated that
there are damages that are alleged more or less as a result of the construction that has occurred. He does not know how the
lawsuit changes if the surface is developed into something that looks like a park because the thrust of the case is the
negligent construction in design plans. He is not sure that the City's exposure changes at all.
The Mayor asked Mr. Hilty that throughout this process has the City asked for his guidance as the City Attorney to make
sure that the City follows our own rules and regulations. Mr. Hilty replied yes. The Mayor asked if the City at any time
violated any City codes or ordinances in this process. Mr. Hilty replied no, not that he is aware of. The Mayor asked if
there were any permit that the City should have sought that the City did not obtain. Mr. Hilty replied no. The Mayor asked
if there were any City action that should have been obtained, but did not. Mr. Hilty replied no.
Councilman Wells suggested that Council consider not making a decision tonight, but rather be allowed the time to read
the information that was provided and make a decision when the time is not as late.
Councilman Callsen stated that if nothing is pressing on this, then why is Council making a decision until after this has
gone to court. The Mayor replied that the reason this was requested to be moved forward is because of construction season
and with all the efforts going on to revitalize downtown, this has been considered an area of blight for eleven to twelve
years now. There have been numerous complaints from downtown business owners about the condition of this site. It has
been recommended by the City's consultants to make improvements as we try to rejuvenate downtown. It is simply a
matter of downtown revitalization and to clean this up and try to catch the construction season or not.

Councilman Oates asked Mr. Hilty about the future development of this property should the City decide to sell it.
The Mayor indicated that this is truly intended to be an interim step. It is much better looking with grass and trees with
downtown enhancements than it is with a hole in the ground or a piece of dirt. Hopefully, someone will want to build on
this piece of property as time moves on.
Councilman Wells stated that he needs to review the evidence and he is not sure that he can make an informed decision.
The Mayor asked Mr. Hilty if Council could delay a decision. Mr. Hilty replied yes.

(COUNCIL COMMENTS)
Councilman Hopper reported that on the new park there is a sign that says the park closes at 10:00 p.m. As he envisions a
downtown with an active nightlife, he wonders if closing this park at 10:00 p.m. is really a long -term position the City
wants to be in. The Mayor indicated that there are residents that are sleeping there overnight and there have been numerous
complaints; hence the sign.
Councilman Hopper requested an Executive Session tonight.
Councilman Blacker suggested that those who have not read the packet on Phase II of Indian Creek to read it. He thinks
that Council needs to go back and readdress where the new City Hall is going to go.
Councilman Wells requested that maybe sometime in the future there could be a workshop that would deal with out
parcels so that Council understands them a little bit better. The Mayor indicated that he has spoken to Planning & Zoning
and this workshop will be scheduled soon
