project to the DIy Creek Canal Bridge on Hill Road. Extending the 8-foot landscaped area for
approximateIy'200-feet paSt the Dry Creek Canal Bridge on the south side of Rill Road will be
considered. Landscaping, will not be installed on the Dry Creek Canal Bridge. Additional
landscaped areas between the back of standard curb and gutter and detached sidewalk will be
installed on the north side of Hill Road from the Hill Road City Park continuing on to Highway 55.
A center landscaped median 8-feet wide. to be installed in the center turn lane. will be constructed
from the west end of the project to the Dry Creek Canal Bridge on Hill Road, where the landscaped
median does not conflict with traffic movements. The landscaped median will also be constructed in
Hill Road between the entrances to Hill Road City Park. A 2-foot wide sec.tion of the 7-foot wide
attached concrete sidewalk adjacent to the standard curb and gutter will be upgraded to Bomanite
Concrete for the length of the project on Hill Road.
This scope of work asswnes the City of Eagle will provide adequate water volume and pressure to
. the Hill Road Conielor to be utilized for landscaping irrigation. Anypump stations. booster pumps,
vaults or appurtenances required to provide adequate water volume or pressure shall be considered
additional work.
The Landscape Architect will coordinate the design of the landscaping with the City of Eagle . The
City of Eagle will direct or supply landscaping design standards. preferences, and available water
sources for landscaping irrigation. Using roll plots and concept level details, the Landscape
Architect will present an informa11andscaping 40% Submittal to a combined meeting of both the
City of Eagle and ACHD before furthering the landscaping plans to the 95% level. Oral comments
will be used in lieu of written comments at the 40% Review. Comments received at the 40%
SubmiitaI review meeting will be incorporated into the 95% Submittal design. For the 95% and 99%
Complete Submittals, the landscape plans will be incorporated into the Roadway Construction Plans.
Irrigation conduits and root barrier. if required. will be incorporated into the Roadway Construction
Plans where possible to clarify construction of both the roadway and landscape features.

3109 INTERAGENCY COST SHARE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
3109.1 Purpose in Establishing an Interage ncy Cost Share Policy
The purpose of the cost share policy is to define the role of ACHD, cities. the
county, urban renewal agencies and other potential partnering agencies in
funding both transportation and "non,,;fransportation" elements of ACHD's road
projects. The cost share policy maintains flexibility for ACHD to consider unique
features of projects and recognize the desires of .thepartnering agencies for
roadway features within their boundaries. Each partnering agency has its own
unique aesthetic vision for its community and the aesthetic features it desires,
from landscaped medians, to street trees. to on street parking, to types and
dimenSIons of sidewalks. This policy allows flexibility within the roadway
design process,establishes a consistent set of transportation elements that
ACHD will fund for all partneringagencies and provide the opportunity for
financial. participation from each partneJ'ing agency to make its oWn aethestic
vision a reality. This policy is not intended to cover every possible situation in
which decisions about cost Sharing must occur. This policy is intended to
compleinent the specific authority granted to ACHDpursuant to the Idaho
Constitution and Idaho Code, not replace or supersede it. If there is a conflict
between this policy and state and/or federal law, state and/or federal law shall
control.
The Interagency Cost Share Policy may apply to the following partnering
agencies:
1, Cities
2, Counties
3. Urban Renewal Agencies
4, Idaho Transportation Departm ent
Adopted: Res, 469 (7/13/94)
Revised: 7/19/95; 12/97; 12/99; 5/27/09 (Res, 895); 5/27/09 (Res, 897); 1/27/10 (Res. 920)

5, Neighboring counties and highway districts
6. School districts
7, Utilities
8. Regional Public Transportation Authority (VRT)
9, Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) or Transportation
Management Agency (TMA)
Some projects may require ACHO and a partnering agency to partner with
private entities, such as developers or private utilities, to flindboth
transportatio n and non-transportation elements of a project.
3109.:2 ACHO Statutory Responsibilities
As a special purpose government, ACHO's authority to make expenditures is
limited to the specific authority granted under Idaho law. ACHO may only
partiCipate in interagency cost sharing for roadway projects to the extent that its
participation complies with the specific powers granted to it by the Idaho
Legislature as provided for in Idaho Code, ACHO is statutorily authorized in
making expenditures on road improvements which include the design,
construction. reconstruction and maintenance of highways and public rights-of-
way, including drainage. ACHO is prohibited from exercising its powers of
eminent domain to acquire private property unless the improvement to the
right-of-way is consistent withACHO's statutory atithority and a public necessity
as defined by established engineering industry standards.
There are two separate chapters in Title 40 of the Idaho Code related to
powers granted to AC HO:
1. Chapter 13 - Powers of ACHO outside cities; and
2. Chapter 14 - Powers of ACHO within cities.
ACHO's powers are best summarized under applicable sections of I.C. S9 40-
1310 and 40-1415. ,Any project improvements that result in costs outside
ACHO's specific statutory mandated powers are costs that must be paid for by
the partnering agency requesting the im provements.
3109.3 Transportation Components
Pursuant to Idaho law, ACHO may fund the following transportation
components:
1, Travel Lanes - Through or turn lanes for the purpose of vehicular
movements;
2. Bike Lanes - Facilities for bicycle use within the curb-to-curb section of
urban roadways or along shoulders of rural roadways;
Adopted: Res. 469 (7/13/94) 3100 _ 21

3. Curbs and Gutter - Infrastructure for storm water conveyance on urban
cross-sec:tions;
4. Sidewalks - Facilities for the safe movement of pedestrians; including
related safety buffers;
5, Paved Medians - Facilities installed for purposes of motorist safety,
access management and traffic flow;
6. Retaining Walls - Facilities for buttressing of slopeS as a result of roadway
design; .
7. Highway Lighting -Illumination for the primarY benefit to the motorist;
8. Traffic Control Devices - Traffic signals, flashing beacons, signage,
striping andinteUiger1f transportation system facilities;
9. Drainage - Storm water structures where necessary for motorist safety
andmaintenailce.
3109.3.1
Alternative Transportation
1. ACHD accommodates standard pedestrian and bicycle
facilities in roadway and intersection projects, as defined
by ACHD's Livable Street Design Guide or other cross-
section policies.
2. Issues related to construction, placement or relocation of
transit structures in the right-of-way shall be addressed
through the Cooperative Agreement for Transit Structures
between ACHD and Valley Regional Transit
3109.3.2 Intelligent Transportation System
Funding for ITS projects off ofthe ACHDsystem may be managed by ACHD,
but will require full funding or local match from the agency on whose system
the project exists.
3109.3.3 Storm Water Quality
ACHD is responsible for design, construction, and reconstruction of storm
water drainage where necessary for motorist safety or right-of-way
maintenance. If ACHD determines that an agency's request for a project will
have an adverse affect on storm water quantity or quality, the requesting
agency, at its sofe cost shall be responsible for mitigating any such adverse
effects.
3109.4 Non-Transportation Components
Road project elements over which ACHD has no statutory authority must be
coordinated with the appropriate land use and/or public transportation agency.
Adopted: Res. 469 (7/13/94)
Revised: 7/19/95; 12/97; 12/99; 5/27/09 (Res. 895); 5/27/09 (Res. 897); 1/27f10 (Res, 920)
3100 - 22
3109.4.1 Aesthetic Features
Apartnering agency may request the inclusion of aesthetic features for
roadway projects in the ACHD Five-Year Work Plan. Aesthetic features may
include, but are not limited to, landscaping, specialized pavement or sidewalk
treatments, decorative lighting, and other non-transportation component
features.
1. If a partnering agency requests an aesthetic feature on an
ACHD project that is beyond ACHD's statutory funding
authority, thepartnering agency will be required to provide
for 100% of the costs of the non-transportation component
improvements including design, land acquisition,
construction and perpetual maintenance.
2. If a partnering agency elects to enhance a necessary
transportation component of an ACHD project with an
aesthetic feature, ACHD may provide a funding credilto
the partnering agency that contdbutes towards the cost of
the requested aesthetic feature urider the following
conditions: (1) the credit can only be applied toward
enhancing a necessary transportation component and; (2)
the aesthetic feature cannot diminish or eliminate the
function of a transportation component; (3) the amount of
the credit will not be greater than ACHD's avoided cost of
the transportation component determined by ACHD; (4) the
credit can only be applied on the same project; (5) credits
will not be allowed for avoided costs associated with
changes to number of travel ianes, lane widths or
transportation components required for motorist or
pedestrian safety. The terms of a credit will be specified in
a project-specific interagency cost sh,are agreement.
3. The partnerfng agency shall be solely responsible to
provide for the ordinary and necessary maintenance, repair
and operation of any aesthetic features installed in the
right-of-way in perpetuity. Ifthe partnering agency fails to
ensure maintenance of the aesthetic features, ACHD may,
after reasonable efforts working the partnering agency to
cure the default, as specified in the applicable interagency
agreement, elect to remove and replace the aesthetic
features with the hardscape or other materials consistent
with standard ACHD practice. All costs associated with
aesthetic removal and replacement will be borne by the
partnering agency. Failure of the partnering agency to
ensure maintenance of aesthetic features may jeopardize
the partnering agency's ability to secure cost sharing
agreements on ACHD projects until defaults are corrected
and ACHD's expenses associated with aesthetic feature
removal and replacement have been fully reimbursed.
Adopted: Res, 469 (7/13/94)
Revised: 7/19/95; 12/97; 12/99; 5/27/09 (Res. 895); 5/27109 (Res. 897); 1/27/10 (Res, 920)
3100 - 23
3109.4.2 Medians
Medians can be provided for aesthetics.
1. ACHD Development Policy, Transportation Research
Board guidelines, and/or established engineering industry
standards, will be used to determine the need for medians
for access management and safety.
2, If a partneringagency requests medians that are not
justified for traffic managem ent based upon established
engineering . industry standards, thEm the requesting
agency shall be required to provide 100% of the costs of
the median, including, design, additional land acquisition,
construction andi11 aintenance.
3, ACHD is responsible tor the cost of medians for traffic
management which can be met with hardscaping.
4. A partnering agency is responsible for the installation and
maintenance of aesthetic features in a median.
5. The decision to install aethestic medians will require public
involvement and applicable land use jurisdiction support.
ACHD has sole discretion with regard to installation of
medians.
3109.4.3 Pedestrian/Bicycle Facilities
Communities may desire pedestrian/bicycle facilities that are beyond ACHD's
Livable Street Design Guide or other cross-section policies.
1. In the pedestrian area, ACHD shall prOVide a buffer space
to meet ADA requirements as defined in the Livable Street
Design Guide. ACHD will pay for right-at-way to provide a
pedestrian safety buffer up to a total of 6' of buffer space, if
a city or partnering agency agrees to provide or ensure
installation and maintenance of landscaping in the
applicable space. On certain roadways, larger pedestrian
zones/features may be justified at ACHD's expenSe if it
can be demonstrated that it is needed for pedestrian safety
and otherwise complies with the public necessity
requirements for eminent domain as set forth in the Idaho
Constitution Art. I, S 13 and Idaho Code S 7-701 et seq.
2. If a partnering agency requests additional bicycle and
pedestrian facilities that are beyond ACHD's Livable Street
Design Guide or other cross-section polices, the agency is
required to provide 100% of the costs for additional
improvements, including design, land acquisition and
construction.

3109.4,4 On-Street Parking
ACHD shall fund the right-of-way, construction, and maintenance of on-street
parking where appropriate on arterials for ACHD projects, On-street parking on
collectors and local roads will come from dedications, consistent with existing
ACHDpoliCY. On-street parking for arterials will come from dedications when
required as a condition of developm~nt approval. On-street parking must be
approved byACHD.
3109.4.5
Federally-Funded Projects
1, Federal and State laws, rules and policies determine what
level of non~transportation elements should be included In
STP-TMA projects,
2, The match paid by partnering agencies on a project that
combines both transportation and non-transportation
elements shall be proportionate to the share of the non-
transportation elements of the project.
3, STP-Enhancement projects may require additional
discussion, and negotiation as non-transportatio n features
are generally components of such projects.
3109.4.6
Mitigation
1. Site specific mitigation may include specialized treatments
such as sound walls, berms and other project components
whose purpose is to mitigate traffic impacts within the
project area. These requests stem from studies, project-
specific outreach, planning efforts, and city requests.
2. Funding of mitigation, beyond that negotiated on a
property by property basis during ACHD right-of-way
acquisition process, will be handled on a case by case
basis in consultation with partnering agencies during
project development and with written approval of the
Commission.
3109.5 Notice of Interest
Partnering agencies should indicate possible interest in non-transportation
elements during ACHD's annual request for jurisdiction priorities for the Five-
Year Work Plan (FYWP). A partnering agency should indicate such interest in a
letter to the ACHD Commission indicating project priorities. However,
partnering agencies may indicate such interest at any time by a letter to the
ACHD Commission, subject to the limitations in Section 3109.6 below.
3109,6 Project Development
During project development, ACHD will provide interested partnering agencies
the opportunity to identify desired aesthetic features and adopt an interagency
cost share agreement. ACHD will develop the project consistent with the terms
Adopted: Res. 469 (7/13/94) 3100 - 25
Revised: 7119/95; 12/97; 12/99; 5/27/09 (Res, 895): 5/27/09 (Res. 897); 1/27/10 (Res. 920)
and conditions of an adopted interagency cost share agreement. General
project timelines will be indicated in the FYWP. These time/jnes are subject to
change through the annual update of the FYWP, project development and the
budget.
1. When the first project design phase is initiated, (concept
design or design) ACHD will involve the partnering
agencies who have indicated an interest in writing to
identify and evaluate alternatives and determine desired
aethestic/llon-transportation featu res
2. ACHO establishes a detailed scope of work for the project
design prior to initiating design work. Partnering agencies
will be afforded the opportunity to review and comment on
the scope of work for project design to ensure desired non-
transportation features are included,
3. If an 'agency indicates interest in possible participation after
a consultant design agreement has been signed, or
requests changes to non-transportation features outside
the current design scope of work. thepartnering agency
will be solely responsible for any additional design costs
resulting from their request.
4. At the conclusion of concept design, and prior to initiating
design, ACHO and the partnering agency shall enter into
an interagency cost sharing agreement to outline cost
share and other responsibilities for the project. Some
projects proceed to design without a separate concept
design ,phase. In these cases, ACHD and the partnering
agency shall determine the desired features and enter into
an interagency cost sharing agreement early in the design
process.
5, If an agency declines to enter into an interagency cost
sharing agreement, the project may be delayed, or project
design may proceed without incorporating the partnering
agencies' desired features. Any additional costs that result
from a partnering agency declining to enter into an
interagency cost sharing agreement. and later requesting
additional features; shall be borne by the partnering
agency.
6. Partnering agency requests after project design is
complete will require full compensation from the partnering
agency for design or other changes in the project. .ACHD
will work with the partnering agency to incorporate design
features that are feasible. however not all requests,
including those fully funded by the requesting agency,
may be able to be accommodated due to site-specific
design constraints, status of land acquisition, the project
schedule, and other feasibility issues,
Adopted: Res. 469 (7/13f94)
Revised: 7f19f95: 12f97; 12/99; 5/27/09 (Res. 895); 5/27/09 (Res, 897); 1/27/10 (Res. 920)
3100 - 26
3109.6.1
Acceleration of Project Construction
1. Agencies may request project construction prior to ACHD
adopted programming,
2. If a partnering agency supplements ACHD funding for the
transportation elements of a project. ACHD awards the
project points for non-ACHD funding in ,the prioritization of
project ranking.
3. If the partnering agency, makes a project a top request of
the agency, ACHD awards the project points, for the
partnerihg agency request in the prioritization of project
ranking. A high-ranking tequest is also considered during
the annual Five~Year Work Plan and budget updates, with
efforts made toaccomrriodate the request within other
funding and schedule considerations.
3109.6.2 Acceleration through Cooperative Projects
The ACHD Commission may enter into cooperative agreements with
developers to construct projects through public-private partnerships with
funding arrangements negotiated on a c8se-by-case basis,
1. ACHD will use the adopted Master Street Map and seek
local land use jurisdiction input to identify desired non-
transportation features when a development agreement is
proposed.
2. ACHD will notify the applicable land use jurisdiction of a
proposed development agreement and the land use
jurisdiction will have at least 30 days, from the date of
notification of the proposed development agreement, to
indicate their desire to become a partnering agency for
non"transportation features.
3. Partnering agencies desiring non-transportation aesthetic
features will have the opportunity to become a party to the
cooperative agreement between ACHD and the developer.
The partnering agency's cost share responsibilities for the
aesthetic non-transportation features will be negotiated
upon terms consistent with this cost share policy, and set
forth in the cooperative development agreement.
4. Partnering agencies seeking cooperative projects for
ACHD system improvements outside of the normal
development review process shall contact ACHD to initiate
discussion and case by case negotiation of appropriate
cost share.
Adopted: Res. 469 (7/13/94)
Revised: 7/19195; 12/97; 12/99; 5127/09 (Res, 895); 5/27/09 (Res, a97); 1/27/10 (Res, 920)
3100 - 27
3109.7 I ntergovernm ental Ag reement
Pursuant to Idaho Code 67...2332, ACHD may enter into intergovernmental
agreements with other public agencies for the purpose of performing any
governmental service, activity, or undertaking which each public agency is
authorized by law to perform. Proposed project timeframes, anticipated project
completion dates, payment and/or reimbursement provisions, as well as other
duties and obligations of the parties, shall be negotiated in terms and
conditions that are consistent with this cost share policy and set forth in a
written intergovernmental agreell'lent. The agreement shall be adopted by both
the ACHD Commission and the partnering agency's governing body.
3109,8 Procedures for Participation Prior to Project Development
Any agency reqUesting ACHO consideration shall follow the following
procedure;
3109.8;1 Master Street Map and Future Acquisitions Map .
Partnering agencies may indicate their desire for additional right-of-Way for
non-transportation elements at any time by concurrent ACHD and applicable
land use jurisdiction adoption of a right-of-way width to accommodate the
desired elements in ACHD's Master Streets Map and the land use jurisdiction's
Future Acquisitions Map. Such adoption indicates the partnering agency is
willing to provide funding for the additional features consistent with this policy
and any interagency agreements.
1, If a partnering agency and ACHD agree on the features for
a roadway during a planning effort (e,9. comprehensive
plan update, subarea or corridor planning, etc) they will
indicate their commitment to cost share by adopting an
interagency agreement and will each adopt the appropriate
right of way width into ACHD's Master Street Map and the
land use jurisdiction's Future Acquisitions Map,
2. ACHD will seek financial participation from the partnering
agency when development applications present an
opportunity for early right-at-way acquisition,
3. It the partnering agency declines to participate in early
right-of-way acquisition, ACHD will acquire right-ot-way for
the basic footprint, as defined in ACHO's Livable Street
Design Guide or other cross-section policies. Partnering
agencies will be provided a second opportunity to
purchase, at the partnering agency's cost, additional right~
of-way during the right-of-way phase of ACHD's capital
projects development provided that ACHD and the
partnering agency enter into an interagency cost sharing
agreement during the design phase.
Adopted: Res, 469 (7/13/94)
Revised: 7/19/95; 12/97; 12/99; 5/27/09 (Res, 895); 5/27/09 (Res, 897); 1/27/10 (Res. 920)
3100- 28
4, If ACHO enters into a cooperative development agreement
for improvements in the public right-of-way, ACHD will
include the additional right-of~way and desired aethestic
features adopted in the Master Street Map.
3109.9 Projects for Economic Development and Land Use Goal s
1. Projects of this nature typically evolve out of city area-specific planning
efforts and include projects and initiatives beyond the transportation
system needs and priorities identified by ACHD.
2. Funding expectations for such projects are to be clearly spelled out and
