AB 22-071 Request to Proclaim April 17-23, 2022 As Volunteer Week in the City of McCall National Volunteer Week began in 1974 as a way to recognize and celebrate the efforts of volunteers. Since then, the original emphasis on celebration has widened; the week has become a nationwide effort to urge people to get out and volunteer in their communities. Every April, charities and communities reinforce the week's official theme ("Celebrating People in Action") by recognizing volunteers and fostering a culture of service. President Richard Nixon established National Volunteer Week with an executive order in 1974. Every sitting U.S. president since Nixon has issued a proclamation during National Volunteer Week, as have many U.S. mayors and governors, urging Americans to give their time to community outreach organizations.

MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 5 of 12 March 31, 2022 Regular Meeting PUBLIC HEARING 1 AB 22-070 Request to Approve Planned Unit Development Preliminary Plan (PUD-21-01) and Subdivision Preliminary Plat (SUB -21-04) at 116 Thula Street for Rywest Homes, Inc. Mayor Giles asked if any members of the Council had any conflicts of interest related to the planned unit development to be presented. All Council Members present replied that they had no conflicts of interest. Mayor Giles also aske if any Members of the Council had been contacted outside the meeting regarding the application. All Members stated that they had not been contacted outside the meeting. Council Member Maciaszek moved to continue the Public Hearing. Council Member Nielsen seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council Member Maciaszek, Council Member Nielsen, Mayor Giles, and Council Member Nelson all voted aye, and the motion carried. City Planner Brian Parker presented to Council with a brief overview of the public noticing and legal requirements that were met for the Public Hearing as well as the history of the continued Public Hearing process, and an overview of the documents that were presented for the record. Planner Parker also clarified changes to the record since the last meeting. Mayor Giles asked if any Council Member had any objections to admitting any of the documents to the record. There were no objections by any Member of Council. City Planner Brian Parker stated that the Public Hearing is for a Planned Unit Development and Subdivision Preliminary Plat application to construct 26 condominium units. During their regularly scheduled November 2, 2021 meeting, the McCall Area Planning and Zoning Commission held a properly noticed public hearing and unanimously recommended approval of the subject application to the McCall City Council without a second public hearing. The subject application includes requests to enter into development and escrow agreements. Final versions of these agreements will be presented to Council at a later date. During the January 13, 2022 McCall City Council meeting, the public hearing for this application was opened and continued to allow staff and the applicant additional time to finalize plans regarding the required Park's dedication. There was clarification made as to the location of the bike path that will be constructed as in-leu of the Park's dedication. There were some questions regarding the strip of land to the north of the project that was originally to be used as part of the bike path. Planner Parker explained that the ownership of that strip of land is under question. There was also clarification made to the parking requirements and the limitations of short-term rentals. Council Member Maciaszek asked for clarification regarding the proposed CC&Rs, specifically the prohibited trailer parking. Planner Parker noted the Preliminary Plat is essentially a draft and CC&Rs may be modified in the future and are out of the City's control; however, items that are a condition of approval will need to be reflected in the CC&Rs and the Development Agreement which will come back to Council at a future meeting. Mayor Giles noted Council needs to keep sight of the proposed prohibited trailer parking when final CC&Rs come back to Council at a future meeting. MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 6 of 12 March 31, 2022 Regular Meeting Council Member Nielsen asked if the additional units proposed to be deed restricted to prohibit short-term rentals will be deed restricted through the city's current local housing deed restriction program. Planner Parker explained the deed restriction will not be the same as the local housing deed restriction program, the units would still be able to be a second home but would be restricted to prohibit short-term rentals. Council Member Maciaszek additionally clarified the local housing deed restriction and the deed restriction prohibiting short-term rentals are not the same deed restriction. Planner Parker noted four units will be deed restricted for local housing using the city's current deed restriction program and an additional seven units would be deed restricted to prohibit short-term rentals independently from the local housing deed restriction. Council Member Nielsen asked if the proposed pathway location interferes with any storm water runoff. Planner Parker noted that the pathway is proposed to be located on the south side of Deinhard Lane connecting to the existing path off Mission Street in place of the current bike lane. Additionally, Council Member Nielsen asked City Attorney Bill Nichols if the location of the pathway not being connected to the site being developed poses any issues with the City Code. Attorney Nichols noted as long as the developer is offering the pathway in exchange of an onsite amenity as an in-leu fee it does not pose any issues. Council Member Nelson asked about feedback from the adjacent properties regarding the proposed updates. Planner Parker has not received any feedback regarding the proposed changes. Council Member Nielsen asked about the ownership of the originally proposed location for the pathway. Attorney Nichols noted the ownership is not clear at this point in time. Mayor Giles requested the applicant Tim Davis of Rywest Homes to speak. Mr. Davis noted that Planner Parker covered the changes to the application fully. Mr. Davis clarified that Building B has a total of eleven units, seven two -bedroom units and four one -bedroom units. Three of the two - bedroom units and one of the one -bedroom units will be deed restricted for local housing and the remaining units in building B will be deed restricted to prohibit short-term rentals of 30 days or less. In addition to the deed restrictions, the final CC&Rs will include prohibiting trailer parking. Additionally, Mr. Davis expressed concern for the possible delay to the sewer upgrades and proposed an extension for obtaining a building permit. Mayor Giles called for public comment at 6:16pm City Clerk BessieJo Wagner read aloud written comments submitted by Joey Petri and Mary & Monte Fisher, both comments were opposed to the development and are included as Attachment A. David Gallipoli, 200 Scott Street, in person. Mr. Gallipoli urged Council to postpone the approval of the Black Bear Condo project noting utility infrastructure inefficiencies, strain on local emergency services and limited onsite parking. Eve Marostica, 110 Thula, signed up online Ms. Marostica is against approving the Black Bear Condo project. Ms. Marostica noted the location of the development being between single family homes as an issue and agreed with the previous comments made by other members of the public. MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 7 of 12 March 31, 2022 Regular Meeting Mr. Davis addressed Council noting the concerns for local housing in the area. The development is set up to be sold at the bottom of the current market, deed restricted for local housing and against short-term rentals and prohibiting trailer parking has all been done in an effort to help alleviate the need for local housing and concerns neighbors of the site have expressed. Council Member Nielsen asked City Attorney Nichols if the pathway satisfies the city code requiring a park dedication. Mayor Giles asked if the application satisfied city code on all fronts. Planner Parker noted the parks requirement in City code has seen similar pathways approved previously and it is staff's opinion that this application meets the criteria with the conditions of approval listed in the findings of facts. Council Member Nelson asked for clarification on Rywest Homes paying for the pathway on City property. Planner Parker confirmed the applicant will be financially responsible for constructing the pathway on public property. Attorney Nichols noted the contribution does satisfy the in-leu of section of the code mentioned. Mayor Giles commented on the size of the development and noted the city does not need more pocket parks acquired from smaller developments to meet city code. Council Member Nielsen asked if the proposed pathway location could cause future issues in relation to the Deinhard Lane potentially changing ownership to Idaho Transportation Department. Attorney Nichols noted the location of the pathway in regard to either being in the Deinhard right of way or on Airport property makes a difference. Additionally, there are state level requirements for alternative transportation modalities that would have to be met by the Idaho Transportation Department if a change of ownership were to occur in the future. Council discussed the pathway proposal. Planner Parker noted that condition of approval number ten requires the pathway to be reviewed by Public Works, Parks and Recreation, and the Airport prior to construction. Council Member Nelson understands the concerns voiced by neighbors of the development, but the City needs to stay true to the comprehensive plan and city code. Council Member Nelson feels as though the applicant has demonstrated sensitivity to the issues raised by neighbors and additional community challenges. Council Member Maciaszek agreed with Council Member Nelson and the need for local housing and moderately priced properties in the community. Council Member Maciaszek thanked the applicant for hearing the concerns of the community and taking them into consideration. Council Member Nielsen agreed with Council Member Maciaszek and the need this development addresses for local housing. The proposed pathway is more in alignment with the community than previously proposed options to satisfy city code. Mayor Giles thanked Council for the great discussion and thanked the applicant for listening to the concerns and challenges of the community. Mayor Giles additionally commented on the need for high density housing. Council Member Maciaszek moved to close the Public Hearing. Council Member Nielsen seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council Member Maciaszek, Council Member Nielsen, Mayor Giles, and Council Member Nelson all voted aye, and the motion carried. Attorney Nichols noted the recommended action mentioned in the Agenda Bill needs to be modified. Planner Parker noted changes to conditions of approval and how to modify the recommended action to be reflected in the motion. MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 8 of 12 March 31, 2022 Regular Meeting Council Member Maciaszek moved to approved PUD-21-01 & SUB -21-04 for Rywest Homes subject to the revised findings and conclusions as documented in AB 22-070.

The City received responses from Donna Bush and Paul Christensen. Donna Bush was reappointed in February 2022. Paul is also interested in serving another term on the advisory board. The advisory committee recommends that Paul Christensen be re -appointed for an additional term. Council had no questions or comments. Council Member Nelson moved to appoint Paul Christensen to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee to a term to expire in March of 2025. Council Member Nielsen seconded the motion. In a voice vote Council Member Nelson, Council Member Nielsen, Mayor Giles, and Council Member Maciaszek all voted aye, and the motion carried. AB 22-074 Request for Approval of PUD-20-01Planned Unit Development, SUB -20-04 — Running Horse Subdivision Final Development Plan, Final Plat, and Associated Escrow Agreement City Planner Brian Parker presented to Council an application for a Planned Unit Development Final Plan and Subdivision Final Plat to create thirteen detached, single family dwelling units, one of which will be a deed restricted local housing unit. The applicant has proposed an escrow agreement to defer completion of public improvements until after the recordation of the final plat. During its regularly scheduled March 1, 2022 meeting, the McCall Area Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended the application and associated escrow agreement to the McCall City Council for approval. Council Member Maciaszek requested an overview of the process and the difference between a preliminary plat and a final plat. Planner Parker gave a brief description of the process. Council Member Maciaszek additionally asked if the applicant has met all conditions and Planner Parker confirmed the applicant has met all conditions. Attorney Nichols noted the final plat approval is more of a final check and there is little option for Council to make changes at this point of the application. Council Member Nelson asked how the developer came up with the ratio for the single deed restricted local housing unit. Planner Parker referred to the applicant to answer questions after a description of what a deed restriction program is and how it works. Sasha Childs, the Running Horse developer, stated that they did not ask for higher density when implementing the local housing deed restriction to add value to the community. The buyer for the local housing unit has already been decided and the buyer is working with the builder to help design their future home MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 9 of 12 March 31, 2022 Regular Meeting which will be sold at cost. Additionally, the local housing unit will not be responsible for the homeowner association fees.

Crestline Engineers recommended (in consultation with staff) to award both the base bid and bid alternate #1. Granite's bid came within —6% of the engineers estimate, however Crestline's estimate took into consideration significant material and labor cost increases observed over the past year. Streets LOT and Franchise Fee funding will cover project costs over what the CDBG grant funding will cover. Mayor Giles asked if there will be an increase in the amount of pavement around the Senior Center during this project to cut down on the amount of dust. Engineer Stroud noted there will be additional pavement with cut outs for planters. City Clerk BessieJo Wagner noted additional funding available for the project through the CDBG.

Giles, Mayor MCCALL CITY COUNCIL March 31, 2022 Regular Meeting Page 12 of 12 3/31/22 12:06:20 Mary Monte Fisher 200 Thula Against "We would like to extend our appreciation for the relocation of the pathway, and would like to take the opportunity to publicly thank Tim Davis (RyWest Homes) for his cordial approach and his understanding of our issues. However, the inability of this development to comply with City Code 9.3.102(A) should not be remedied by offering the use of public property (City owned) for free, to make it appear as though the development meets Code requirements. Please refer to our previously submitted comments regarding the parkland dedication code. Approval of this application as submitted sets a serious precedent in which future developers of high density building projects can look to the City to make the same concessions regarding open space and adequate parking. The City Council should assure compliance with all City codes not only by this development but all future developments. We would like to thank the City Council for their time and consideration.

JP Good Evening City Council members, I am currently in Austin Tx. but I would like to express 100% support for David Gallipoli on the Thula Project and his effort to bring sanity and reason to our local officials. As expressed in the past I see no good reason to allow any new building projects other than single family homes and current buildings or remodels until all questions are answered and solutions to current situations are fully addressed. I must express and emphasize my broad brush approach because I think it is of dire importance that the needs of the current community come first and not those of developers that really seek to see their own personal and or investors agendas and not that of the greater good of the community . It is the job of our officials to work for those who reside here and have emotional and spiritual connection who are not here to profit from the gifts we received from the Creator and Mother Earth .I request, implore and would demand if I had the authority to seek indigenous guidance for all the decisions that effect the greater good ! Thank you, Joey Pietri 225 Valley Springs Rd. McCall" MCCALL CITY COUNCIL March 31, 2022 Regular Meeting
