Felix states that the Applicant and Staff have done a nice job of language changes and the
diagrams are very helpful. He feels it would be out of sequence to make recommendation for
approval until have heard from City Council on their response to the recommendation on the
Foothills plan. He says he could send it along if there is a stipulation saying that it be made to
follow the Foothills plan.
McCarrel says he concurs with Felix in the way things seem out of order. In regards to the school
district he feels everything is more in the air then it was before. He understands why the school
district did what it did and feels this issue needs to be cleared up. He recommends working with
legislators.
Zastrow feels new transportation plan is very helpful. He refers to Council's experience for
source of outside assistance. He feels economic projections need a third party analysis and thinks
the Council should look into transportation issues. He says there are some serious legislative
issues and it is important to keep it in the City because of great planning division and Council's
better latitude to handle this. States that of all info examined he feels the water issue is the one
thing that gives assurance.
Pierce states that he agrees with all said. He adds would like an independant study of water
included. He wants to see this go in the same realm as where City Council goes with Foothills
Plan. It needs to be adequate for whole foothills. He comments on the great phasing plans. Over
all he would like to use Council's discretion.
Aspitarte moves to recommend for approval CPA-5-06/Z0A-3-06/A-14-06/RZ-19-06-M3
Eagle with the following concerns: That we get additional insurances on infrastructure,
specifically the interchange, the road's north south connections and the impacts to Eagle.
That City Council look closer at the school situation and the schools. That the City make
sure it is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. That we have a third party or second
party economic study done independently from Mr. Church's. And, that Idaho Department
of Water Resources reviews Mr. Squire's Hydrology and Geo-Hydrology report. Seconded
by Zastrow. Discussion: City Attorney, Susan Buxton, states that any changes made to the
motion must be made in the form of an amendment. Felix amends the motion to read:
(Rather than stating recommend for approval with following concerns) "Recommend for
approval with following conditions. ..." Also adding a condition that the final Development
Agreement be consistent to the Foothills Comprehensive Plan approved by City Council.
Aspitarte moves to make amendment as stated by Felix. Second concurs. ALL
