“Yeah, so I just wanted to make sure I'm understanding this correctly. When this project was completed, if not for the lawsuits, would staff have felt like we could have reimbursed the entire project, but it was the lawsuit that kept us from doing the entire project at that time? Or would we have had that same conservative opinion on what was reimbursable?”

“Madam Mayor. Hey, Drew, thank you for talking about your neighborhood association work. I was going to follow up on that too. And you mentioned other neighborhood associations. I think it was a year ago. I was at a South Boise Village meeting with you. So appreciate you doing that work and especially knowing that those other neighborhood associations, LUSC as well, will be up on this next round. I just wanted to dig into the parking again. So when you say you anticipate another 370 70 parking spots on campus. Are you taking into account. I imagine, I believe, but just want you to confirm…”

“Okay. Madam mayor. Thank you. I appreciate that. Cause I do think, um, You know, Council Member Willits mentioned getting emails, and I've gotten emails from frustrated parents too that live in Lusk and they're not on campus and that kind of thing. And so keeping in mind those pressures that you may not be aware of because it's off-campus housing maybe or whatnot. So I was happy to see that work being done in terms of the parking study. And then I would just echo Council President Stead's kind of, you know, in terms of riverfront activation and working through You know how how this can be a…”

“Madam Mayor. I want to thank you for bringing this before us. I think what's exciting about this one is that it's more pragmatic in that vision of land use than the prior one. And I do remember seeing the prior one is very specific buildings. I think there was like a field house somewhere like very, you know, obviously unrealistic probably to that timeline. And when we think about our comp plan, we think about a vision that we're pushing towards and we don't really know exactly what kinds of factors or things that we might need at that point in time, but we have a vision of the direction we…”

“I'd like to request that we, the roll call tonight on this one, I will not be supporting this motion. This is the second nomination that we've had from County Commission in my short time here on Council where, yeah, their District 19 legislative candidate, I think that looking at their platform, looked at some more information, I couldn't quite see the it may be the value that could be brought to this commission and i would like to see if we can get more um geographic representation on the commission as it is now thank you clerk nash yes ted yes willis yes corliss yes holly burton yes morales…”

“Any questions for staff man mayor yeah just to reiterate our conversation that we had when this was before us before. The so we're getting for home sites, but each of those four homes could have an ad you so potentially eight units of housing, but for home sites correct. That is correct thanks.”

“Madam Mayor. Hey, Matt. Thank you for being here. As you mentioned, this is on a roadway that's a collector street. I know this is ECHD's purview, but do you have kind of a basic definition that you could give of collector street? And just kind of confirm that I would say that all collector streets aren't equal in terms of how much they're handling in terms of traffic throughout the city, right?”

“Thank you, Madam Mayor, and then follow up kind of good segue into Greenbelt. I think there was a little bit of confusion during planning and zoning on this pathway being Greenbelt, because maybe it's not what you'd expect. The Greenbelt along the river, right, that doesn't have road crossings or curb cuts. But we have a few spots throughout the city that are like this, where they tend to go briefly through a neighborhood or whatnot, have curb cuts, and I'm correct.”

“Yeah, Madam Mayor. Brittany, first of all, thanks for being here. And I just say I've been on a lot of your communications and never came across like there's a personal vendetta. And I think I did see that comment and other public feedback. And I think that we all are... you know, deserve dignity and, and, um, noble intent in what we're presenting here. And I appreciate you laying out, you know, exactly what your issues are so that hopefully we can find a solution. Right. Um, what, I guess my one question for you is regarding the green belt and the curb cuts. Um, one curb, I don't even like…”

“um i'm not i i guess i don't even know like how that would happen is that something the city would initiate or can the neighbors initiate that or i well feedback potentially then the applicant could be prepared to talk about if they thought about it potentially that could be feedback for the applicant council that we can consider but just wanted to know so that's that's the answer that's good thank you thank you for your question”

“Mademir, thanks for being here, Pastor. Appreciate your comments as well. Thank you for sharing those ahead of your remarks. Kind of brought this up with Brittany. So curious if throughout the iteration process for this development, I mean, considering the pathway and it is frequently used, especially on beautiful Sundays in Boise, has there been thought to routing a pathway behind the building and”

“Yeah, great. When I'm looking at it, it looks like you said, your property seems conducive to it. It's got that rear setback along the eastern edge. Would there be, and I guess this is something maybe for you guys to discuss, but an opportunity to propose having a, you know, if you would be willing to grant some sort of kind of pathway easement along that setback that you're not using anyways.”

“Great. Thank you. Madam Mayor, quick question for Brett before you get back there. Yes. Awesome. Answer briefly. Yeah, it's just a yes or no. Does a pathway around the back of the property get you as hyped as the pastor?”

“Matt, so just looking at condition six and seven, looking at those mitigation, trying to get more safety. I think the videos are presented were really insightful. I think. Is there an opportunity for this applicant to consider new new methods of safety and security, such as, you know, we're talking about this, you know, public pathway easement along the back, which would take Idaho Power, you know, connection on the other side. So it's not something that could necessarily be wrapped up here tonight, even if they wanted to. But, you know, that would kind of be wrapped into those discussions…”

“Madam Mayor. Thank you. I want to thank Brittany. I want to thank all the neighbors that came out. I think President Berg of the Southeast Neighborhood Association really hit it on the head about how this, the differing, as we said, multiple viewpoints that came out. But I want to specifically call out, especially tonight, the way that that was shared. Council Pro Tem Corliss and I attended a conference last November. We learned about the Dignity Index. and um you should all look it up the dignity index this was all five plus on the index which was which is good that's where we want to be so…”
