From the year 2000 to 2002, the population of the City of Eagle grew by 17%, increasing the City's population by more than 1,000 residents per year. This rate of growth resulted in the development of over 900 acres of land within the City and the area of city impact in just 3 years. Understanding the need for the City to look forward and plan for the next 20 -years, City leaders are beginning a review of the 2000 comprehensive plan and future development areas to the west of the existing area of city impact and city limits.

Visioning is a public participation process that gives the city a chance to evaluate existing development patterns, land uses and community design features. It also provides the community a chance to voice their opinions about the future of the city. The City of Eagle chose to use the Oregon Model; this process involves four questions that bring about a series of specific activities: Where are we now? This question addresses recent successes of the city and what has been accomplished over the past 30years. Page 2 of 48 KTPlanning DepdImpact Area12O0$ visioieing resuhsbverview.doc Where are we going? Staff will answer this question by detailing what trends we are seeing as well as detailing what to expect if nothing changes over the next 20 years. Where do we want to be? This is an open question allowing participants to look outside of the existing patterns to determine if there is a desired change and what they may look like. How do we get there? This question allows participants to prioritize the results of question 3 and begin looking at what needs to be done to move toward achieving these goals. The City of Eagle held 3 public visioning sessions: March 30, 2004 Eagle Christian Church April 6, 2004 Eagle Library April 7, 2004 Eagle High School PREPARATION: In preparation for these events city staff prepared a residential build out analysis of the existing area of impact. This analysis is available for review separately. NOTIFICATION: The City of Eagle direct mailed to over 1800 house holds west of Eagle Road and east of Highway 16 between State Street and Homer Road. Further the City sent over 2500 flyers out with elementary school children and Shadow Valley and Eagle Hills Elementary schools. The City also provided 4 weeks of legal notices in the Valley News. Feature stories were also published in the Idaho Statesman and Valley News. WHO PARTICIPATED? These 21/2 hour long visioning sessions were facilitated by the City of Eagle planning staff, community volunteers, volunteers from ACHD, Ada County, Page 3 of 48 K1Planning Deptftpact AArea12004%visioning naulubverview.doc Treasure Valley Partnership, Valley Ride, and Idaho Smart Growth.

THIS IMPLIES THAT THEY MUST INCLUDE RUNOFF RETENTION FACILITIES. 3. PLANS FOR THESE "OFF -RIGHT-OF-WAY" RUNOFF FACILITIES ARE NOT PART OF THE JURISDICTION OF ACHD, SO THEY COME TO CITY STAFF FOR REVIEW. STAFF HAS BEEN REVIEWING THESE DESIGNS UPON RECEIPT. 4. DESIGN ISSUES, DIFFERENCES OF OPINION AMONG VARIOUS DEVELOPMENT DESIGNERS, AND THE LACK OF AN EXPLICIT CITY OF EAGLE STANDARD HAVE GIVEN RISE TO THE POTENTIAL OF AN APPEARANCE OF ARBITRARY ACTION BY STAFF. 5. TO ASSURE A UNIFORM STANDARD OF PUBLIC PROTECTION AND TO ASSURE THAT STAFF REVIEWS WILL NOT BE NOR APPEAR ARBITRARY, THE CITY SHOULD ADOPT A WRITTEN STANDARD. 6. THE STANDARD RECOMMENDED HEREIN REFLECTS PARALLEL PROVISIONS OF THE STANDARDS OF THE CITY OF BOISE, SOUTHWEST DISTRICT HEALTH DEPARTMENT, IDAHO DEQ AND ACHD WHERE POSSIBLE. 7. THIS PROPOSED STANDARD INCLUDES SAFETY FACTORS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN TYPICALLY EMPLOYED LOCALLY IN DESIGNING RETENTION FACILITIES. STAFF IS OF THE OPINION THAT LACK OF APPLICATION OF SUCH SAFETY FACTORS HAS LED TO CONSTRUCTION OF UNDERSIZED FACILITIES. 8. STORM DRAINAGE ABSORPTION DESIGN GIVES RISE TO A DIFFICULT MATH PROBLEM.

It was identified in July 2002 as Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire (Coleoptera: Buprestldae). Larvae feed in the phloem and outer sapwood, producing galleries that eventually girdle and kill branches and entire trees. Evidence suggests that A. planipennis has been established In Michigan for at least five years. Surveys to determine the extent of the infested area are underway. Identification Adults are larger and a brighter green than any of the native North American species ofAgrilus (Figure 1). The slender, elongate adults are 7.5 to 13.5 mm Tong, and females are larger than males. The adult body is brassy or golden green overall, with darker, metallic, emerald green wing covers, or elytra. The top of the abdomen under the elytra is metallic coppery red (seen only when the wings are spread). The prothorax, to which the first pair of legs is attached, is slightly wider than the head but the same width as the base of the elytra. The back edges of the covering on the prothorax are sinuate or wavy, and the top is sculptured with tiny, transverse wavy ridges. The surfaces of the elytra are granularly roughened. Tips of the elytra are rounded with small teeth along the edge. Larvae reach a length of 26 to 32 mm, are cream -colored and dorso - ventrally flattened (Figure 2). The brown head is mostly retracted into the prothorax and only the mouth -parts are visible externally. The 10 -segmented abdomen has a pair of brown, pincer -like appendages on the last segment. Biology The appears to have a one year life cycle in southern Michigan but could require two years to complete a generation in colder regions. Adult emergence begins in mid to late May, peaks in early to mid June, and continues into late June (Figure 3). The adults are active during the day, particularly when conditions are warm and sunny. Most beetles remain in protected locations in bark crevices or on foliage during rain, heavy cloud cover, high winds or temperatures above 32°C (90°F). Chinese literature indicates that beetles usually fly within 2 meters of the ground. The likelihood of long distance flights is not known. Adults, which are present Into August, feed on up to 0.45 cm2 of foliage per day, leaving irregularly-shaped patches of leaf tissue with jagged edges. Information from China indicates that male adults live an average of 13 days and females live about 21 to 22 days. Females can mate multiple times and oviposition begins 7 to 9 days after the initial mating. Females lay 65 to 90 eggs during their lifetime. Eggs are deposited individually on the bark surface or in bark crevices on the trunk or branches. In southeastern Michigan, the oviposition period likely extends into mid to late July. Eggs hatch in 7 to 10 days. After hatching, first instar larvae chew through the bark and into the cambial region.

The S-shaped feeding gallery winds back and forth, becoming progressively wider as the larva grows (Figure 4). Galleries are packed with fine frass. Individual galleries usually extend over an area that is 20 to 30 cm in length, though the length of the affected area can range from 10 to 50 cm. In some areas, woodpeckers feed heavily on larvae. The insect overwinters as a full-grown larva in a shallow chamber excavated in the sapwood. Pupation begins in late April or early May. Newly eclosed adults may remain in the pupal chamber for 1 to 2 weeks before emerging head -first through a D -shaped exit hole that is 3-4 mm in diameter (Figure 5). Distribution and Hosts The emerald ash borer is indigenous to Asia and Is known to occur in China, Korea, Japan, Mongolia, the Russian Far East and Taiwan. A Chinese report indicates high populations of the borer occur primarily in Fraxinus chinensis and F. rhynchophylla forests. Other reported hosts in Asia include F. mandshurica var. japonica, Ulmus davidiana var. japonica, Juglans mandshurica var. sieboldiana and Pterocarya rhoifolia. In Michigan, this borer has been observed only on ash trees. It has killed green ash (F. pennsylvanica), white ash (F. americana) and black ash (F. nigra), as well as several horticultural varieties of ash. Symptoms Infestations of emerald ash borer can be difficult to detect until canopy dieback begins. Evidence of infestation includes D -shaped exit holes on branches and the trunk. Callus tissue produced by the tree in response to larval feeding may cause vertical splits 5-10 cm in length to occur in the bark above the gallery (Figure 6). Distinct, frass-filled larval tunnels etch the outer sapwood and phloem of the trunk and branches (Figure 7). An elliptical area of discolored sapwood, likely a result of secondary infection by fungal pathogens, sometimes surrounds larval feeding galleries in live trees. Infested branches in the canopy die when they are girdled by the serpentine tunnels excavated by feeding larvae. Many trees appear to lose about 30 to 50 percent of the canopy in one year and the tree is often killed after 2-3 years of infestation (Figure 8). Frequently a profusion of epicormic shoots arises at the margin of live and dead tissue on the trunk. When trees die, dense root sprouting occurs. killed trees of various size and condition in Michigan. Larvae successfully developed on trees as small as 5 cm in diameter, but pole -sized and sawtimber-sized trees were also killed. Stress likely contributes to vulnerability of ash trees and recent summer droughts may have contributed to high emerald ash borer populations in southeastern Michigan. However, emerald ash borer attacked and killed apparently vigorous trees in woodlots and urban trees under regular irrigation and fertilization regimes. Sources Yu, Chengming. 1992.
