Rebecca Roth, 4514 W. Briar Rock, Eagle, Idaho. Ms. Roth is a longtime resident of Eagle. She is dismayed with the conduct of this election and campaign. She has received threats and personal attacks. The attacks and unprofessional behavior of seated Council members does not serve the best interests of the City and residents,and is not a reflection of the Eagle community values. It is important to maintain a level of professionalism and civility in our public disclosure. Robert Trimble, 5750 Val Cross, Eagle, Idaho. He moved here 4 years ago from California and he does not want Eagle to become the state that he left. He thanks the Mayor and Council for the opportunity to address them.

The conduct of Mayor Pierce's campaign has been distasteful. Peter Robbins, 138 S. Vandries, Eagle, Idaho. Mr. Robbins requests the installation of no parking signs along Old Valley Road between Linder Road and Baxter Way. Old cars, trash trailers and garbage trucks line the roadway.

Mark Butler 1675 E.Bishop Way,Eagle,Idaho. Mr.Butler expresses his respect for both Pike and Pierce, however he does feel that Pierce is the correct choice for Mayor. Looking back over what has been achieved over the last four years, he believes that Pierce deserves another four years as Mayor. Tammy Pike, 1905 N. Synergy Place, Eagle, Idaho. Ms. Pike states that Mayor Pierce needs to stop saying things about Hollister. People will come out and prove the lies. It is unfortunate that the Council has weighed in with so much hate. She looks forward to a forthcoming apology from Mayor Pierce for the lies he has perpetuated. Joel Anderson, 1424 Hereford Dr.,Eagle,Idaho.Mr.Anderson provides first hand knowledge of Brad's tenure in Hollister.

Anderson notes that Brad started a grass roots effort to improve safety. Mr. Anderson's firsthand experience with Brad in Hollister was that he was approachable,attentive,authentic, compassionate,caring collaborative,dedicated,ethical forward-thinking,transparent,sensible, hardworking, logical,upstanding,and has a deep commitment to public safety. Brian Almon, 864 N. Player Ave, Eagle, Idaho. Mr. Almon believes that each campaign is guilty of negativity; it is something that has been going on since John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were name calling. Eagle is where he wants to raise his children and hopes we can Page 3 K:\COUNCIL\MINUTES\2023\CC-11-28-23min.docx move on from the campaign acrimony and keep Eagle a community where we raise our children and our children want to raise their's here as well.

Mr. Chapman states that he personally has gone out and spoken on behalf of Jason's campaign and that he only speaks to the issues. He does not direct personal attacks towards Pike.

Eagle Hills Way, Eagle, Idaho. Ms. Morris offers an apology for her behavior while giving testimony previously. She has lived here a long time and she loves this town and does not want it to degrade to people attacking other people. Devon Miller, 427 Old Park, Eagle, Idaho. Mr. Miller states that the negative back and forth between campaigns is just an inevitable part of the election process these days. You must fight aggressively and fiercely to win on conservative issues. To criticize one another for negative campaign procedures is naïve. Kurt Smith, 2502 W. Timber Dr., Eagle, Idaho. Mr. Smith wishes to discuss the rates for Hardin Sanitation. The current contract does not allow for increases, except for certain exceptions. His bill went up 23%.

The 76.85-acre site is located at the northeast corner of State Highway 44 and North Palmer Lane. (MJW) Mayor Pierce introduces the item. Stephanie Hopkins,with KM Engineering, 5725 Discovery Boise, Idaho, representing TH Lost River, LLC. Ms. Hopkins reviews the application, and the requested changes to the site specific conditions and the development agreement provisions. Planner III, Mike Williams reviews the staff report and areas for special consideration. Mayor Pierce opens the public hearing. Jerod Moyle, 737 N. Longhorn Dr., Eagle, Idaho. He is part of Lincoln Park Subdivision. He would like to ensure that the fencing that was approved at Planning and Zoning makes it into Council's approval. He would also request that streetlights be eliminated or Page 6 K:\COUNCIL\MINUTES\2023\CC-11-28-23 m i n.d ocx minimized to decrease light pollution into their subdivision. Moyle states that working with Tresido has been a pleasant experience. Manuela Walter, 1327 N. Marconia Ave, Eagle, Idaho. Ms. Walter lives in Legacy. She hopes that the light is installed at Palmer before any construction begins; it already poses a traffic challenge in that area. She believes that lower density should be sought. Ms. Walter would like to see more green space rather than ponds. Legacy already has a problem with non-subdivision residents utilizing their amenities. If the proposed subdivision had their own park amenities perhaps then people wouldn't have a tendency to use Legacy's. She also questions the placement of stub streets in the proposal. Dave Yorgason, 14254 W. Battenburg, Boise, Idaho. Yorgason is part of the development team and provides rebuttal. Yogason states that they will continue to work with the abutting neighbor with lot size transition as well as fencing. They agree that two stub streets may not be necessary. The developer does not feel that a concrete pathway is logical due to the damage that will be caused when maintaining the ditch. The Developer is requesting the requirement be changed to gravel and reduced in width to 6'. Ms. Hopkins discusses open space amenities and the importance to the Developer of the townhome design. General discussion. Mayor closes the public hearing. Baun expresses concern with the ponds vs usable green space. He would like to reduce some density and one of the stub streets, and feels the 8' wide pathway is needed. He does think there should be a reduction of lots on the east side, perhaps two lots, recommends only one stub street, and discusses abutting fencing. Gindlesperger concurs with Baun's comments, but seeks clarification on his statements regarding ponds. Russell is in agreement with the reduction in the streetlights and using bollard lights at pathways, and is in favor of removing the alley load and going to front load. Discussion regarding open space, traffic counts on Palmer, timing of the signalization installation and streetlights. Pike expresses concern with the high-density portion at the south end of the development. The high density,plus the commercial component near the highway,will be a lot of excess vehicles in that area. He suggests that perhaps a dog park be added as has been requested in previous developments, perhaps a percentage of the green space could be allocated to that amenity. General discussion regarding density transition between commercial and residential. Baun moves to approve action item 10A A-01-23/RZ-02-23/CU-03-23/PPUD-02- 23/PP-02-23 — Annexation, Rezone, Conditional Use Permit, Preliminary Development Plan, and Preliminary Nat for Everton Subdivision — TH Lost River, LLC with the following site-specific conditions: #4 for the language to be adjusted based on staff recommended language.

Site specific condition #12 streetlights based on the recommendation from staff, to reduce streetlights to the corner sections and the bollards for the trails. Site specific condition #11: solid fence on the rear east lot line transitions so it matches the 6' change. Site specific condition #6 front load, basically change the rear load to the front load option. Site specific condition #7 revise condition to the 31' lot setback for the garage. For the development agreement provision 11.12, keep the 8' pathway and keep the 10' Page 7 K:\COUNCIL\MIN UTES\2023\CC-11-28-23min.docx cement surface on the southside of the trail.

City Council Presentation: Old Valley Road November 28, 2023 Peter Robbins peter@robbinsguitar.com 208-297-9320 Thank you for allowing me a few minutes to address the council. I am here to ask a favor. I am requesting that you pursue installation of No Parking signs along both sides of Old Valley Road between Linder Road and Baxter Way. Before you say this can't be done, let me explain why it should be done. When you drive home and enter your subdivision, what do you see? Do you see nice homes and well-manicured landscaping? When the residents of River Walk, my subdivision, enter our neighborhood we see a 280-unit apartment complex and a road littered with old cars, trash trailers, and a garbage truck. I know there is nothing that can be done about the apartments, but the real eyesore is the cars, trailers piled high with junk, and my personal favorite, the Treasure Valley Haul Away truck that is permanently parked along this short stretch of road. I have a few photos so you can see for yourself which I will give to you at the conclusion of my remarks. It is time to take care of this problem. So why should you bother with this request? 1. I would hope that you agree that trailers filled with garbage and trash trucks parked on any City of Eagle street bring the quality of life in our city down. If you don't agree with that let me know and I will work on getting a few trash trucks parked on your street. 2. Before construction was even started on the apartments, the people of River Walk asked the city for help and were rebuffed by the then sitting mayor and city council. The results of this were devastating to our community. This is an opportunity for you as the leaders of Eagle to make some small amends. 3. These parked vehicles pose a safety concern with visibility around Old Valley Road and more than once I have had to drive off the roadway onto the dirt shoulder to allow oncoming traffic to pass safely. This needs to be fixed. 4. The eyesore problem needs to be resolved. 5. While you may say this is a matter for the police or public safety department, or even another government agency, the fact is that this is a small road and has not and will not be patrolled sufficiently to solve the problem. The only solution is to not allow parking on this stretch of road. 6. And finally, fixing this problem is just the right thing to do. In conclusion, I don't know how it gets done, but you are the leaders of the city and our representatives. So please do the right thing and get no parking signs along Old Valley Road. Thank you for your attention. 12/8/2023 1 ' Everton . -.,J 7,. Planned Unit ?

Staff Comments/Recommendations: The applicants proposal to extend Alidade Avenue into the site and construct a stub street,Muller Drive,to the site's east property line meets District policy and should be approved as proposed. The applicant should be required to construct two additional stub streets to the east:one on the north side and one on the south side of the Middleton Mill Canal due to the potential for future development of the large lots located directly adjacent to the site to the east. The applicant should be required to install a sign at the terminus of all three stub streets stating that. "THIS ROAD WILL BE EXTENDED IN THE FUTURE." A cul-de-sac turnaround is not required at the terminus of Muller Drive,as it does not extend greater in length than 150-feet. If the two additional stub streets that are required to be constructed to the east are greater in length than 150-feet,then the applicant should be required to construct a temporary cul-de-sac turnaround at the terminus of the stub streets. The temporary turnaround should be paved and constructed to the same dimensional standards as a standard cul-de-sac turnaround. If the turnaround extends onto a buildable lot,the entire lot shall be encumbered by the easement and identified on the plat as a non-buildable lot until the street is extended. 12.
