located within the loop of the Farmers Union Canal off of State Hwy 16, what's known as Big Gulch. A
portion of the site was originally planned for some intense development, but the current owner has decided
that it's not something they want to develop.
Council Member Baun asked for input regarding ACHD relative to their new concept plan removing all bike

Nichole stated that ACHD has changed their roadway classifications for pedestrian and bike standards and
are looking to separate Ped Bike from the actual roadway travel corridor.

9. NEW BUSINESS:
A. Jason Olsen, 1036 Bigwood Dr. Assistant Director/Operator at Eagle Park. Jason stated they are hosting a
Gold Cup event qualifier for the Northwest on June 10, 2022, and currently working on upgrades to the track.
Council Member Baun left the meeting due to Rocking A Ranch being under application.
B. Brian Scott — 501 E Baybrook Ct. Boise. Presented on Rocking A Ranch.
Commissioner Deckers makes a recommendation that we accept this application with staff
recommendations with one exception that public foot traffic be welcome, and a sign could be placed
that says something to the tune of, please respect our private property, walkers are welcome but be
aware of equestrian traffic.
Vice Chairman Stirrat added that she would be in agreement with the motion other than the fact that
I would also include that equestrians of Eagle can also use the equestrian pathways within the
community. There are mechanisms for the entrances to make them limited to either horse or pedestrian
use and if Storey Trails, if there is a way to work Storey Trails into being able to use the pathways, then
there is a way to work all equestrians in the city to use the pathways. Right now, we don't have enough
pathways for equestrians. I know when we worked on the BLM, we heard from many many equestrian
groups, they were the loudest groups I think with the BLM project. And I know if I had all of those
ladies and men sitting here today, they would be up in arms about, this is such a wonderful opportunity
they would also like to share in. So, I would support the motion other than the fact that I would also
like to see our city equestrians be able to use it as well and I think there is plenty of signage that you
can put up to make users aware and cognizant and safe to use the trails there. Like I said if they are
already working out things with Storey Trails, then any equestrian should be able to use it in the city.
Commissioner Decker's amended the motion to include the recommendation, recommended by Vice
Chairman Stirrat. Seconded by Vice Chairman Stirrat as amended.
Steve Noyes asked for clarification, I know the motion has been made for public access is that to include the
internal trail system, not just public access into their sidewalk.
Commissioner Decker's states yes to their internal trail system.
Commissioner Elwer makes an alternate motion that the commission send out a recommendation of
approval of the Rocking A with the recommendations to include staff recommendations. Seconded by
Commissioner Minch.
