NEW BUSINESS: (CONSIDER RESOLUTION NO. 174-20 ACCEPTING A DEFERRAL AGREEMENT FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT CONSTRUCTION BETWEEN DIAMOND W. DEVELOPMENT LLC AND THE CITY OF CALDWELL FOR THE PURPOSE OF TEMPORARILY DEFERRING PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT CONSTRUCTION) The Mayor provided historical background information concerning the manner, noting that the annexation request by Diamond W. Development was approved by City Council in 2016. Councilman Wagoner referenced this information at the City Council Meeting held on June 15, 2020 and recommended that the request for an alcohol beverage license for The Ranch at 4919 Hwy. 20/26 be continued until further research by City staff was conducted. The City Engineer has conducted the additional research concerning this matter. Robb MacDonald, City Engineer at 621 Cleveland, provided the staff report. He noted that the subject parcels are owned by Diamond W. Development and were annexed into the City of Caldwell in December 2016. The annexation included 4905 and 4919 Hwy. 20/26 and the west side of Borchers Lane. Idaho Transportation Department recently announced a plan to improve the north side of Hwy. 20/26 in 2021-2022,thus the buildings on both of the lots would be removed at the time of construction. Mr.MacDonald recommended to defer the landscaping and parking requirements at 4905 and 4919 Hwy. 20/26 due to the proposed ITD project. Completion of the right-of-way improvements along Borchers Lane would still be required but deferred until the ITD Hwy. 20/26 widening project is underway. Mr. MacDonald stated that Councilman Wagoner was contacted and concurred with the deferment plan recommendation. Discussion followed. Councilman Allgood inquired if the alcohol beverage license could be jeopardized if the deferment agreement was breached. Mark Hilty,City Attorney at 1303 12t Avenue Road,Nampa, reported that if the property is not in compliance with the Deferral Agreement, the alcohol beverage license could be revoked. Mr. MacDonald reported that the deferral agreement stays with the parcel, therefore, if the property was sold,the owner would be bound to the conditions of approval. In response to questions from Councilman Hopper, Mr. MacDonald reported that the owner (John Wardhaugh) of Diamond Development LLC has signed the document. He noted that it was his understanding that Idaho Transportation Department has contacted property owners within the area about the acquisition of property for the widening project. In response to questions from Councilman Pollard, the Mayor reported that Lance Wood is the current owner of The Ranch Bar and applied for the alcohol beverage license.
