The Idaho Local Land Use and Planning Act (LLUPA) requires 14 elements to address within a comprehensive plan, all of which are included with Our Valley, Our Vision. The plan also includes a sub -area plan for the Chubbuck Village Area, and in code the city recognized the development plans for Harvest Springs and Northside Crossing. Our Valley, Our Vision includes over 300 policies to implement the various goals and objectives of the plan. Some of the goals have been implemented, some need updating, and some are long- term policies that remain relevant. After over 20 years of growth however, to ensure that the City is properly planning in accordance with the needs and wishes of its residents and business owners, efforts are needed to update the plan through public input and a plan refresh. The City has $80,000 budgeted for a consultant to assist in the update. The goals for the update project are: • Engage the public efficiently and in a meaningful manner, reaching a variety of community segments. • Develop an updated plan that includes recommendations for issues that may be on the horizon but not yet included in city plans or codes. • Recommend new land use patterns with practical and effective solutions for land development and effects on city infrastructure and services. • Recommend imaginative and achievable strategies to implement the plan through the year 2040. With Input and buy -in from dept heads, mayor, council, and commission provide actionable goals, objectives, and appropriate policies for the city and individual department initiatives. Consider objectives and plans of other agencies in development of the Comprehensive Plan. To reduce some costs on a contract, staff have been gathering and analyzing data that would otherwise be researched by the consultant. Staff is also preparing an application for a $30,000 comprehensive planning grant from the Blue Cross of Idaho (BCI) Foundation for Health. The grants are awarded to cities wanting to include a health component to their comprehensive plan. The foundation states "the purpose of this grant is for cities to take a holistic approach for addressing social determinants of health, not just focusing on parks and recreation." The determinants that may be addressed through a grant are shown in the illustration below. Social Determinants of Health Source: Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation In recent years Chubbuck has excelled in Wa(kabi(itywith sidewalks added to several neighborhoods, pathways along New Day Parkway, a grant for a trail along Church Canal, and the trail systems emerging as part of Northside Crossing and Harvest Springs. Another strong suit is the City's Community Engagement— the city has engaged a good number of residents online in the last 4 years. 290 E Linden Avenue, Chubbuck, ID 83202 208.237.2430 — Fax 208.237.2409 CHUBBUCK www•CityofChubbuck.us 1 0 A H 8 Examining the current Comprehensive Plan, which was adopted 20 years ago, there is a need to increase focus in several areas that blend well with a potential grant from the BCI Foundation for Health. Each of these four topics would target groups with greater needs as part of a Comprehensive Plan: • Employment (part of Economic Stability) • Income (part of Economic Stability) • Housing (part of Neighborhood and Physical Environment) • Social Integration (part of Community and Social Context) The common approach for this type of grant is to select the focus area(s), and enable public input on the goals, priorities, and implementation of that topic. If the City is successful in obtaining a grant much of the funds would enable more extensive public engagement, including citizens who generally have little contact with City government.

Based on the U.S. Census, Chubbuck had a population of 9,700 persons in the year 2000. This repre- sents an hicreasc in population of 23% over the ten-year period bemccrl 1990 and 2000. With this growth conic change and the need for coordination and plaiming. The Ctty of-Cliubbuck llas becn an active participant in the dor ILlItT 0M, 1 rmn regional planning effort that was jointly conducted with the City of Pocatello, Bannock Planning Organization, ldaho Dopartment of Transportation, and School District #25. Population estiiriates conducted as part of that project forecast all increase of 20,000 people in the region over the next 20 years. Based on land availability, Chubbuck will be home to as many as 5,000 of these nrw residents. It is important that tilt comm Linky azaticipates and plans for this gi-owth. Through planning, vve call meet the regional vision as well as Chubbuck's comm"n Ity vision as a full -function city complete witlt.jobs, services, and recreation. Chubbuck citizens value their small town atznosphcrc, mid by planning for land tiSCL, transportation systems, and infinstructurc improvements, we can assure that new groEvth fits ottr vis10i1 ofthc community and the region. Our Plan Our 2001 Comprehenslve Plan is based on the' interests and concerns of our citizclas. The plan builds on the City's 1995 Comprehensive Plan and incorporates concepts and eleincnts of the Our [,allay 01jr 17,1,011 project. In developing the 1995 plats and the 2001 plan, stirveys, open houses, advisory committees, mectings with the Land Use and Deve1opmetat Conirni.tis]'on, and the City Council have been used to raise intorr-st orad gather input. In addition, the plan has been developed to bo consistent with the requirements of the Idalto Local Planning Act of 1975. Our Valley Our Vision — The Regional Planning Context Our 2001 Comprehensive Plalt has been devc1oped to be consistri-it witli the visiola alid goa]s ofoux reglonal planning document, 24 2020 VisfL111far- flit 1'01,101ca fRiver 14711q. In 1999, a n:grional Lffart was launched to plait for future growth in the Portneuf River Malley. The Our Valley Otir 7 isimi planning process determined how to best arconatnodate and plan for nevv residents. Tlie project was a cooperativc cftort of citizens, agencies, and regional stakeholders to create a con-11vu visionfor the area and plan for the managcment of growth iii the Portneuf River Valley. It was co-sponsored by der cities of Chubbuck and Pocatello. The 2001 Chubbuck C0111prc1lensive Platt is the culmination of the two-year Our TMC), Orrr vsio►t regional Planning effort. Throughout the Our Ijl�ey Our 1- simi project, citizens, stakcholders, elected ❑fficials, and City, County, and Bannock Planning Organization (BPO) staff worked with a consulting team to create and refine a vision for growth in the rcgion entitled A 2020 Vision for the Portneuf Diver Valley," The build -out analysis and community visioning and refinement process have Helped shape policies and priorities for the rcgion that will encourage development patterns to accom- modate growth while preserving the qualities residents most value. The Plan leas bcen updated to reflect tilt results of this planning effort and guide die Imple] erit-.ltlon of the pol'c- prr7grams, and activities that will :mitis= the vision a reality.

Clttibbuck and Pocatello have effectively acconirnodated this growth in a proactive planner by encouraging new "infill" dcvclopment within existing urban areas and selectively adding new neighborhoods on vacant land at the edges of tlac urban area. This dual emphasis on infill and new neighborhoods has hclpcd the region curl_ costly, unplanned sprawl and produce a smarter approach to development. Smart development has resulted iii revitalized neighborhoods,, a better trlix of residential and commercial land uses, and a more walLable community. Rcdevelopi-neat of undcrtnilized sites also has contributed to the revi- talizatioll oFulder areas within the region. Public-private partnerships and Financial incentives have helped make such redcveloptnGnt feasible. Examples of smart development in tete Valley irtcludc: University District. The arca between the unit+crsity and downtown has become an active, lively district -'vith new mixed-Ltse projects that combitac commercial and residential tiscs- This has hclpcd strengthen the link between the activity centers of downtowtl Pocatello and the university.

The downtown improvements leave resulted from a focused plan and a program that encourages public-private partnerships. New Neighborhoods. New neighborhoods have developed at the edges of Pocatello and Chubbuck. These neighborhoods include new shopping areas, allowing people to vvaI - or bike short distanccyi for their daily shopping heeds. In general, new neighborhood devtlop- mcnt is more compact, t.itilial ' st3laller lots, with more efficient and less costly public serv- ices related to infi-astrttcttrre and public safety. New neighborhoods are located ill strategic locations that help provide surrounding areas vvith essential neighborhood services.

The corridsar finlctions as a vital link bmvicen downtown Pocatello and Cllubbuck. Open Space and Farmland Protection Growth in the Portnct_lf River Valley has been rnanaged to take advantage of existing Infrastruc- ture and to protect open space and farmland surrounding the urban] area. Urbana service bound- aries and agricultural zoning have helped preserve and protect fanaas northeast OfChubbuck and along the Peartncuf River. A few hillside areas have been carefully developed, but the steepest areas have been retained and protected as open space and for the spectacular views they provide the rc-61'ion's residents. Clean Air and Wafer Air quality in the Portneuf River Valley has been improved by citizens work-inguwitit industries to reduce er issions. Air quality also has been achieved by reducing rcliancc on the automobile and reducing the number of daily vehicle 1rliles traveled by residents. This has been accomplished through a better mix of land uses, a more connected street network, and eluate people using alter- nativ,- modes of transportation, ilacluding buses and shuttles. The PartneuF Diver Malley also has Ji proved its water quality by protecting water resources and wetlands and working to clean up sites that contribute to water pollimon.

Effectively eliminates (by regulation) all ecenotnic value of'tlic property. Laws or regulations governing private property use should dcperid licavily upon the govcrnntertt's authun-ity and responsibility to protect public health, safety, and welfare_ Based rin this premise, the courts have supported the limitation of property nese through land use planning, zoning ordinaners, scthack requireniettts, and environmental rcgulations, However, if such regulations and/or laws destroy a funda- mental property right or impose a substanrial and significatnt Iimitation on the property, it could be considered a taping. In the 1994 Lcoslative 5cssioix, Sections 67-B001, 8002, and 8003 were adopted. This imposed a ditty upon state agencies to fallow a "cliccU-1.9t" developed by die Attorney General's office to ensure that regulations did. not result in a takin� Of private property rights.

Els part of the Our 1,hlley Our Nisiori proacct, a technical analysis ofpopulation, housing units, and employ- ment forecasts was prepared for Bannock County, the BPO Metropolitan Arca, and individual traffic analysts zones in the metropolitan area. The analysis began with an examination of trend iuFormation about the area's employment, population, housing, and income characcrostics. Examining past trends was useful to analyze the current Situation and tet gaitl insight into the future. Forecasts for Bannock County, the Bannock Metropolitan Arca, mid individual traffic zones were tllctl made. A memorandum detailing the methodology and assumptions used to pt-epare the F0reCZSt., and results is i»clttded in the Tcclmical Appendix (fm-rcast Metltnsfrllogy, .I:aternnorintain 17cinographics, September 19, 20110).

Within the areas of impact for the Cities of l'ocatclio and Chubbuck, there are 29,74-1 acres of buildable residential laud and 4,244 acres of buildable comnrcrcial or industrial land. Based on plan drsignatinlls and zoning designa- tions as they exist in 2000, the bi ildabIc residcritial land can accorm udatc 27,972 dwelling vliits (average: 3.1 Cry of ChubbOck 2002 Comprehensive Plan density of t1.94 dwelling per acre). Assuming 2.3 persons per household, the impact areas for the two cities provide enough land area for approxinlatcly (4,000 additioltal people, represcnting nearly three times the proicctcd growth for the 20 -year planning time frame. The population iii the United States is growing older, wit) the mcclian arc of 35.3 years repot -ted i11 2000. The increase in the median age reticcts the aging of the baby boomers. Howcver, the 65 -and -over population actually increased at a slower rate than the overall population For the first beret: in the history of thc: censers (U.S. Census Bureau, Census 2000). For Chubbuck, tlic 2000 Cer15ti5 showed a i-riediall age of 29. In Bannock County, the percentage of the population over 65 ycars of agc increased only slightly (Froin 10% rn 1990 to 10.1% in 2000), reflecting the national trend. In Chtibbuck, the older pop�dotion comprised 8.7% of the total pnpulatian wltilc families with children less than IS years old connpinsed 45.4% of (lie 9,700 population reported by the federal cciisus. With the baby boomers growing older, a future demand Cor housing and increased medical a1id other support services is antici- pated. Since a large share of Chubbttck's population is compriscd of families with school-age children, there is a desire for safe and convenient access to schools, parks, and recreational opportunities.

Land use planning allows for the ordcriy provision ofbasic public services and facilities and provides mare efficient rzlovcr-neltt of people and goods. A land use plan that integrates and mixes residential, comiucrcial, acrd other types of uses creates a Haeme: dynamic, livable, compact community. Tlzrclrlgh the "Our galley fltzr1Si(7rl" prrl�ert, the City found that public opinion and financial consider- ations call for changes to current development patterns in order to accomn—iodate populaticrrl-rowtll Without creating urban sprawl. Major cllanbrs to current land use devclopment patterns include open space preservation. a greater emphasis can infill and redevelopment, and the cr-cadoll of new, Compact ncighborhoods. Areas of commercial redevelopment have been identified along the Yellowstone Corridor in Pocatello (at Alameda Road. Center Street, and Carter Street) and at the intersection ofYcllowsttln.e Avenue and Chubbuck Road in Chubbuck (see Compreliensive Plan Map). Additional areas have been identified for conlnrercial redevelopment in Pocatcllo along the Main Street corridor- (at Gould Street, south of Caster Street, and south of Center Street), as indicated cin the Comprehensive Plan Map. Industrial and Other employment opportunities also arc anticipated along Yellowstone Avenue at the north end of Cht.lbbtrck, north of Highway 30 and south of I-96 west of Pocatcl lc+, and rel dlc southeast arca cl€' Pocatello. Ncw neighborhoods located ill northwest Chtrbburk, tiortlicast Pocatello, and southeast I'oeatellO also have land Sortable for commercial and industrial employment opporrmiities, as indicated cull the Comprehenilve Plan Map. These are the areas that are targeted by the Ilan fear attention to design, infii-ristructure, incentives, and accessibility. A key component of the Qr.rr- I1511ey 0110• VisiON.. project%eras a technical analysis (included in the Technical Appendix, Porimer f River Tlbllry Biii)d_Ower TecJll1Ic,1J _d,iratplis, Shapiro and Associates, Inc. 2000) thzit e�7rn- med the inipacts resenting iron, foilr ditfcrent growth patterns that. could occur in the Portncuf Pivcr VaIIcy aver tltc next 20 years: current trend, scattered dcvc1opmcnt, new neighborhoods, and new Communities. Each scenario was assessed for its impact on transportation systems, water and wastewater systetivs, natetral environment (agricultural Innd, wetlands, floodplains, steep Slopcs, and nir quality), scl-rool capacity; and public services (police:, fire, and parks). Two orthe development scenarios, nein neighborhoods and Clew con-rmunities, were based on priliciples of "smart growth." Smart growth is a form of developnient that promotes efficient use of land tliroup, compacL deirelopment patterns and mixing uses so vehicle trips can be reduccd and alternatc nludcs of Transportation can be practical_ilc_ Nationwidc, many studies have slto%vl-r drtat "smart growth" alternad"Ics reduce the loss of a pirt�lt 11 -Al and el�vironrrlcntally Si��rlificailt lands by providing alternatc developta-lent patterns tea sprawl. "Smart growth" development patterns also reduce capital facility casts.

A key implementation strategy identified in the Onr Halley 0rrr fiulon project is the use of an U1-I_)an Services 13omidary (IJS13) to identify wherc public facilities will tae extended in the 20 -year tune frame 4.i City of Chulbl7uck 2002 CompreMnsive Plan of the plan. The USB defines the lands that are to be urbanized and the lands that are to rCtl7aTii in rural use.

As part of the "Otir Vallcy Our Vision" project, an initial analysis determined how much land was avail- able in dic region to accommodate projected population growth (based cm the zone districts that existed at that time). Within the area of impact for Pocatello and Chubbuck there were 29,743 acres of buildable residential land ,and 4,244 acres oft-mildab.le eornmercial or indtistri,l land. However, land within Elie Arca of City Impact that could reasonably be developed is much less. Tile urban services boundary (US13) includes land where services can be eNliandcd and deliberately avoids mviroamerntally constraiiied or unbuildahle lands. The US13 still includes a sufficient supply of vacant and blitldablc lands for development projected to occur Lietween 2000 and 2020.

Neighborhood Refinement Plains provide a more focused plant fez- a specific portion of the City. In arras identified for New Neighborhoods on the Comprehensive Plan Map, a Neighborhood Refinement Ilan must be prcparcd prior to new devtlopincnt. The City may also use Neighborhood Rcfincnnent Plans to coordinate development in other appropriate areas in the City. Ncighhorhoad Refinement Plans arc intendcd to setae as master plates For land devclopnrelrt or rcdevel- opmentand are typically applied to large areas with multiple parcels. Ot,crlay Zones. Overlay zone districts place additional rcquircrimits oti portions ofcxisting (or under- lying) zone districts. The standards For the overlay district are effectively added to the standards of 111c ariginal zone district. Overlay Zane districts are often used to protect environmentally sensitive areas or historic resources with geographic boundaries that do not coflicide with underlying zoning districts.

These roads are rarely supported by lessor through roads that can viably serve as altemitc routes. This situation has been created through a collection of uncoordinated land ttsc} decisions over many yeans. IFnat corrected, it will become i-norc evident and more costly to correct as Clu bbuck grows. Chtlbbuck is also drvc1opirrg at low densities and with sti-eet patterns that are not suppertivc of public transit. In additk)n, there are no bicycle lanes, routes, or patlis to cncourage bicycle use as an alternative to atrtonaobiles. Regional Planning 13nnnoc.k Planning Organization (BPC) plays a [icy role in the daily operation and 1'talyrarLilatiort of [rans� portation policies and development of the regional nansportatimi master plan. Its long range trarrsporta- tiLm plan, "Crossing the Pormeuf Valley: Tndayr and Tomorrow;" recommends "... an integrated system oFbicycle paths, pedestrian walkways, roadways, and rransit facilities designed to mcct the transportation nccds of the community." Reglon-wide transPol-Litlon planning is mcess<ary to maintain mid c>Tarrd a regional transportation network that serves the communities of the Portncuf Valley and meets federal all, quality requircrnents. As part of the Onr 1rr)11ry Otrr 1 rsiou project, a traffic analysis was perforated to identify traffic -r -elated impacts oFthe build -out analysis. Traffic volun-res were projected for the year 2020 using 13110's TransCAD travel dcmand model, These pto'jcctioiis then formed the basis for detcrn-miing future roadway improvements that have: been recommended to alleviate projected congTstitara levels vtfhicl-1 exceeded acceptable thresholds (or, consecutive links returning a volume to capacity [v/c] ratio cif greater than 0.8 for the peak hour). Roadways Ofgreatcst concern are classified as primary arterials with a v/c of 0.8 or greater.

Development patterns depicted in the regional growth management plan offer greater opportunities for transit and other alternative modes of transportation. Increased density and mixed-usc developments inchldeci in this plan make transit systems more cost-eticctive and reduce resident's dependence on the xutomobilc.

The reeds for governing landscaping and building design are the subject of the m;aixlated analysis for community design. Chnlibuck's size and growth rate arc no longer those of a quiet, crossroads, bedroom community. Chubbuck's considerable vacant lands and older and smaller commercial buildings, ripe for redevelopment, Bold potential For duality community design. Previously, Ctubbuc:k has adopted Comprehensive flan laiaguage that encouraged neo -traditional corntnLtniry planning and design concepts. Marc recently, new ideas and traditional community design and planning practices h. C been combined under the term "Smart Growth." "Smart Growth" tnanagement principles were used to develop growth scenarios during the Darr f'Or), OW' Visiar project. Some of these community design and Planning principles arc defined M rhe following section. Downtown [hubbuClf The Orjr llafdcy Orrr Tllision project establishes a regional ti-amework to accommodate growth within the PortncuF River Valley until 2020_ A part of this regional vision is to encourage infill and redevelopment in the City cif CIjubbuck along Yellowstone Avenue, creating a well-defined downtown commercial area and civic center- New storefront commercial development ind downtown street improvements such as %vide sidewalks. streetlights, bcnches: street trees, and building awnings will create an inviting environ- ment for pedestrians. The downtown is intended to be a center far specialty retail, ernploymcnt, and Community life. Neighborhood Design In addition to downtown Chubbtick, the City should consist ofnumerous well-defined neighborhoods. Each neighborhood, whenccr it is an existing neighborlrosad that has undergone infill and redevelopment, ora new neilhhorhood planned on undeveloped land, should implerimit the following pt-ineiples-. Each neighborhood should establish a well-connected hierarchy of streets. Street Connectivity slxortcais Pedestrian ratites, and disperses traffic throughout the network of streets. Increased pedestrian traffic encourages casual meetings and bi lds community, and requires a viable pedestrian system of sidewalks and trails. Some streets should be desig*ned For travel within the neighborhood, and others for through travel. Each neighborhood should have a mini -park or neighborhood park Mini -parks are usually only �t few acres in Size and may contain a ph ygound, tot lot, or open grass play arca. Neighborhood parks are larger (about 5 acres) mid combinc playgrounds, picnic areas, and playing courts or Fields. Mini -parks arc suitable for infill and redevelopment arms where space is limited. Neighborhood parks are suitable for newly dcveiupcd areas and should be located near schools whenever possible. Each neighborhood should include ncighborhood commerml areas that serve the daily needs of local residfnts. Ncighborhood commercial areas should be ccntrilly located along major streets or mterwc- t'ions, within easy walking distance of all neighborhood reside,►ts. Optimal neighborhood size is based on a one-quarter mile radixes or thc equivalent tai a live -minute walk. Chubbuck must achieve higher rem- dential densitin to inake neighborhood commercial areas economically viable. Incrcrascd residmt1al densities should result in a greater variety of housing types and an increase in the amount nF affol-dable housing- AIlowing mixed use and neighborhood commercial dcvelopment t -educes 6.1 City of ChUbbuck. 2042 Comprehensive Plan a household's geed for a second car and encaurages the use of public: transit. Pedestrian access to shop- ping, parks, jobs, and schools is ptirticularly important for clic young and elderly who cannot drive. Higher dt~nsitics should be concentrated at neighborhood and com»tunity cmiters near strong, positive access to transit stops. Public parks and buildings should be sited in prominent locations both wid-tin new COMM uc-Lities and �vllcn existing neighborhoods arc lacing rt:cieveloped. Thcy establish coniniunity identity and foster civic pride, Wtdun each neighborhood a park of 7-1 5acres, an elementary school, or a junior high school Should serve as the cominunity focus. The model neighborhood planning aiid design concepts discussed above must he adapted to specific conditions of a site. The City should use neighborhood rc6nenrent plans to adapt and irnplcnacnt the model neighborlwod planning and design concepts. Neighborhood Refinement Flan Refinement plans and overlay districts can be used to gntlde growth and implement specific design stare -- dards. In areas identified for new ncighborhoods or infill rind redevelopment an the Colnprchensivc Man Map, neigliborliood plans trust be prepared prior to new development. The City also may use neighborhood re finerrie:nt plans to coordinate developmein ui other appropriate locations in the City. Neighborhood retinerucnt plans are intended to serve as master plans for latid development or redevel- opmeru and may be applied to one parcel but usually are applied to multiple parcels. Neighborhood rctinemcnt plans place au etnphasiti on the coordinated planning of streets gild utilities that will serve multiple properties under different ownership. OrLce adopted, the neighborhood r6mv- rnent plan defines permitted tises and speclffc dcwtopnlCtlt standards. Procedures for adoption and amendment of re#inci-nent plans are set forth in the neigliborhood refineinent pkin section of the Dcvelopment Code. Neighborhood refinement plans must follow desig-ni guidelines that prornotc neighborhood livability and a pedestrian environment t11at is sate, convciiient, and interesting. In addition, the design gilidelines promote a mix of rises and an intercoiiiwcted transportation `ySteln Within new ncinhborlioods- In other areas, standards guiding infill and rede_velopnirnt, Housing compatibility, and pedestrian itrrprovements ensure that new development is compatible with existing development. These sundards also encourage a mix of uses, allowing people to walls for their daily sliopping deeds, to work, io school, and to other civic and ptii-lie places.

This places an c�tremcly high water demand on the aquifer. High den.iand Ieads to the second critical problem; the Portncuf lllvcrValley Aquifer has a limited discharge potential and the high demands, coupled with grotiytlr, would exceed the available water supply before the end of the planning period. Ila fact, the current estimate is that the aquifer could support an additional 10,000 people, far less than the 22,000 - person population increase projected by 2020. The situation is worsened by the third critica[ problcln: isolated contamination of the aquifer. Currently rotas Pocatello and Chuhbuck report limited areas of contaIII Mat] an, If the Containinatcd water is clirninated from the discharge potential, the amount of Nvater available for Future growth is further reduced.

The eurwilt system normally utilizes a well and Fump located near the arca of need, The water is dlslnFeeted at the wulI site and pumped Into the distribu- tion SySttill. A 5tC1T3 c tank is normally located at a higher elevation. This provides an emergency supplyand also is tised to meet peal: demands during the clay, Many oCdic 4ystems in Pocatello also require a booster pomp to transport the welter to a higher elevation and another storage tanL It is esti- mated that it would take seven systems of this type to serve the Preferred Growth Scenario. Tlie wells, 7,2 Government Services pumps, and storage tanks would vary in size based oil the size, elevation, -Lind demand of the area scr cd. Estlmatcd co} t of providing tlacsc systerms is $11,500,000. Several options are available: to address water supply problems. The first option is to reduce demand. Litliiting grow -di throngh a building permit or water hook-up moratorium could control future dcrnands, but may leave Severe impacts on the econonry. A more practical option is to develop programs desig-mcd to reduce per -capita water deniand. Portncuf Valley watcr tisagc is nearly twice the natiolial average. This is due to a number of factors, but the low cost of water, the climate, and the local culture of nice lawns are important contributors. Local industry also relics on the availability of high quality; clicap water. I'Otclitial solutions include dramatically increasiiig the cost ofwarer-, retrofitting current plurrihing fixtures cal -shined with inaiidatory changes in landscaping practices, and involving local industry i.n a witcr reduction campaign. The cost of these types of actioris varies considerably, but policy problems of dramatically increasing water rates are often the biggest hurdle to overcome. Wastewater The City of Focatello provides wastewater treatment for Chubbuck. T1 ie current Capital Improvemcnt Pian (CIP) includes ncccssary treatment plant improvements to scr vc the prajtrctcd increase in popula- tion. The estimated cost of providing the e%paraded capacity anal treatment upgradt-s is $17,000,000. Future gro-wth will create the need for two iriajor vmstewater transrnissior, systems that are rich currently plaimcd, plus several smaller oucs. Development near Century High School will create the aced for increased capacity of the transmission systcm InCated near the river that transports wastewater fi-om the southern areas of Pocatello to the northwest, where the treatment plant is located- This additional capacity can be expected to cast approximately $3,500,000. The areas at the north end of the planning Area also will rcgnirc cXtensive Collcctiun improvcrncnts. A new interceptor systerrr will need to be constructed north of I -SIS to transport wastewater from the growth areas in the east along the pipeline route to the wastewater treatment plant. This systein is expected to cast approximately $7,000,000. The either system additions necessary to serve the con-tposite growth scenario are cstimated to cost Fina iscing Innmativc fnaucing MI -1 be rcguircd to fund public facility improvements. Region -wide or local systems dcvc1opnicnt charges could lac established to create a fiend to lielp pay far infrastructure projects. Since 1996, the nse of impact fees has heen available to help pay for a variety ofptiblic improvements. A det{ailcd memorandum regarding impact fees and alternate financing mechanisms is included in the Technical Appendix (Memormidum, Givens Ptirsley LLII, October 12, 2[. DO).

The few resources in its posscssion are important' land, waicr, arid air. Protecting the groundwater has betaine increasingly important, and 11011-attainnent status for particulate matter in the air poses challenges ofits own. Chubhuck also contains and is borderedby some of the best fariniand in .Bannock County. S2FCgtrardI'll i;the 1'ortnet!£River- and Clic Snake; River Plain aquifers will becrlmc increasingly ilnpnlrtant as land development continues and the population gi-ows. To ciisure a clean, safe and ahundarrt supply of high quality water, adequate protection measures far identified sibxrlificaiit strearns, riparian corridors, wetlands, aquifer recharge areas, and municipal and private wells is required. Regidations that protect and ciihancc these areas must strike a balance between reasonable ecmioinic use of property and the resource protcetion. Protcction nieasures twill bei7cfit the entire cor'<lrrrl.lrrity by improving water quality, ltlain.tainin.g and restoring fish and wildlife habitat, nzillirnizing Hood damage, preseiving nitiive plant conuuujiltle5, minimizing stream bank erosion, and coriscrving scclllc, recreational, and educational valtics of llacural 1-Csource areas. Regional Planning Maintaining and iinprovi11g the air quality in talc Portricuf Valley is an irrlportant part of keeping the valley a desirable place to live. The forecast of papulation and ecoriQmic growth increases concerns about the PornlcufM-dley s ability to imintain compliance with air --quality standards. The Air Pollution Control Rules of the Idaho Administrative Procedures Act d6ii-te air quality as the specific measur(ni ret 111 the am -Ment air of a particular air pollunin cit any given time. Ambient pollutants include PM,,, lead, sulfur oxides, nitrogen din-xidc (NOS), ozone (O;), carbon dioxide (CO-,), and PM, -S. In 1993 and 1999, PMio emission in the 1)ortneuFValley exceeded thu annual rand hourly maxintt.tms, which resulted in classifca- t1011 of the valley as a cion-attainn-icrit area.

These trends ]rave made it difficult to find atfcardablc housing in Chubbuck, Pocatello, and Barmock County. Regional Planning As part of the Our f1hliq Our Ifision build -out analysis, a target for single-family and multi -largely residrn- tial development by type and density (dwelling units/acre [du/ac]) within the USB was established, as follows: 1. Rural single. -family 0.5-1 du/ac: 0% 2_ Low sitig;lc-family 2-4 du/ac: 10% 3. Medium single-family 5-7 du/ac: 60% 4. Medium multi -family 5-12 du/ac: 1.5% 5. High multi -family 13-20 du/ac: I5°/° New residential development will occur clthcr as infill dcveloprrient or in newly developing rrciglibor- hoods. Of the estimated population growth anticipated by 2020, new infill development and redevelop- ment within existing ncighborlioods Nvill accotnn adate 33% of the population growth and new neigh- horhoods will aeconimudate the rcn-imiing 67%.

In the short term, developinciat in areas identified for nicw neighborhoods may rLquirc the construction of new elementary schools to specific areas, while other schools remain under capacity. Five of the proposed new neighborhoods are within I mile of an existing elementary school. In the long term, schools built within walking distance of new con -ii iiun[ties would reduce school costs by rnininaizing the need for bus Service.

Agency staff must rise the following questions In reviewing the potential impact of a regulatory or administrative action ori specific property. VA -elle diose questions also provide a framework for evaluating the impacr proposed regulations may have generally, takings questions nae-nially arise i[7 the context cat a specifically affected property. The public review process used for cvalu,lting proposed regulations is another tool the agcaacy should use agga•essively to safeguard rights ol'privatc property owners. If property is subject to regulatory juri5dicti❑]l ofmuldple gvvermumt ageri- ciLs, each agcncy should lie sensitive to tl,e cumulative irl1pact5 cif the varicaus regulatory restrictions. Although a qucstinn may he answered affirmatively, it does not mean there has bear a "taping." Rather, it Fllea ns there could be a constitutional issue and that agency staff should carcitilly review the proposed actiola with Icgal c011115cl. 1. Does the regtrla[ion or artiorr resrtlt it, a pertrtnttent or temporary physical ormpation of private prop- er•toi Regulation or action resulting in a permanent or temporary physical occtlpatioll of all or a Portion of private propertywiII generally constitute a "taking." For example, a regulation that required landlords to allow the installation of cable television hoxcs in their alaartnlcltts was found to culistitute a "taking," (See Lorcuo v. Tclrprompter Manh.arian CITY Corp., 40-8 U.S. 419 [1982],) 2. Does the regrrlathm or action require a property rrmTtier to dedicate a portion tf property Or to gratzt are easement? Coreftilly review all regulations requiring tho dedication of property or grant of all ease- ment. The dedication of pl•operty 171,tst be rcasonably and specifically designed to prevent or cornperlsite Far adverse impacts of the proposed devclopment..Likewise, the magnitude of the burden placed oil the proposed dcvelopniPnt should lac reasonably related to the adverse impacts created by the. development. A court alw will corasldcr whether the section in question substantially advances a legitlmate state illtcrust. For example, tl-lc United States Supreme Court determined it, Nolan 1k G'alfrrm'a C.'oastcal Cprrm'rt., 483 U.S. S25 (1987), that compelling all owiacr of waterfront property to grant a public easement across Ills pruperty that does not Substantially advance the public's interest in beach access, constitutes a "taking." Likewise, the United State Supreme Court hold that compelling a property owner to leave a public l rcenway, as opposed to a private one, aid lint substantially advance protection of a floodplain, and was a. "taping." (Dolou v. City of 7-(Zard, 114 U.S. 2309 []une -14, 1994]) 3. Does the rega.rlation deprive the oximer of all economically triable uses of this property? If a r011ulatiot7 prohihits all econarnlcally viable or beneficial uses oL the land, it will likely constimte a "taking." In this situation, the agency can ahold liability FC)f` j ISt CC1nlp£175at10r1 0111y If It Cal] dCI17U11Stl'atL t17at the proposed uses are prohibited by the laws of 111marlce or other preexisting limitations on the tisr of the propert)c (5re Liners r,. South Carolina Coasial Court,, 112 S. CL 2886 11992J.) Unlike I and 2 above, it is important to analyze rhe regulation's 11-ripact on the property as a "-vl-tole. and neat just the impact on a portion of the property. It also is inzportalat to assess whether there is ally profitable: use of the remaining property ava h-lble. (Sec Porida Rock Inthiso-its, Int. 1r. United .Serres, 18 F.3d 1560 [Fed. Cir,. ]994].) The rcn�laining use docs clot necessarily have to Ue the ❑wool's planned PL i Cary of Chubbuck 2002 Coniprehmsive Pfan use, a prior use, or the highest and vest use of the property. Onc factor its this assessitient is the dcgrec to which the rcguhitoiy action interferes with a property owiier's reasonable Investment - backed development cxpectatio.ns. Carefully review regulations requiring that all of a particular parcel of land be left substantially in its natural state. A prohibitioir of all cconornically viable uses of the property is vulnerable to a takings challenge. In some situations, however, there nnay be preexisting timitations on the use of property that could insulate the governmClIt: from takings liability. 4. Dass the regulation have a signf fcaut irupact on the landowner -s econonric interest? Carefully review regulations that have a significant impact on the owner's economic interest. Courts often will compare the value of property before and after the impact ofthe challeiiged regulation, Although a reduction in property valise alone n -ay not he a "taking," a severe reduction in property value often indicates a reduction or elimination of reasonably profitable uses. Another ecorsomic factor courts will consider is the degree to which the challenged regulation impacts any development rights of the owner. As with 3 above, these economic factors are normally applied to the property is o whale_ D. Dues the regulation deny a_f int.darrrerital attribute aj'awnership? Regulations that deny the landowlicr a fundainental attribute of ownership — including the right to possess, exclude others, and dispose of all or a portion of the property—are potential takings. The United States Suprcinc Court recently held that rcgtiiring a public casement for recreational purposes where the l an-iz to be prcvcntcd was to the floodplain was a "taking." In finding r -his to be a "taking," the Cnurt stated: The city never demonstrated wliy a public green way, as opposed to a private one, was required in the interest of flood control. The difference to the petitioner, of course, is the loss of her ability to exclude otht?rs - _ . [T]his right to c:\clude others is "onc of the inost essential sticks in the bundle +o7f rights that are conirnonly characterized as property." (Dolan i+. Cify of �'{hard, 114 T T-5. ?309 L Linc 24, 1994].) t�. Does the regufafion serve the saint puqiose that rvould be served by directly prohibiting the nese or carrion; and does the condition imposed substantially adi+carte that purpose? A regulation may go too fat- and niq result its a takings claim where it does riot siibstantially advance a lcgititnate goverrimcntal purpose. (Nair±line i,. Califpnfia Coastal Coinuii-uionz 107 S.

History Chubbuck is relatively new, having incorporated in only 1949 and having developed largely as a bedroom community of the towns of Pocatello and Alameda, also in northern Bannock County. As a relative newcomer as far as cities in the West are concerned, the Village of Chubbuck lacked the unorganized growth patterns frequently found on main streets in pioneer cities that resulted in business corridors characterized by shared wall buildings, mixed architecture, horizontal and vertical mixed uses, and an active streetscape. Chubbuck experienced much of its growth from the 1970s onwards and has been subject to trending development patterns since that time. While the City contains a healthy economic corridor consisting of an indoor shopping mall, several big box stores that serve the regional market, and a healthy, diverse mixture of other commercial uses, development and architectural trends did not lend themselves towards the creation of a pedestrian -friendly commercial city center. Community Engagement Part I- Strategic Plan From 2017-2018, the City of Chubbuck sought broad public input while developing a strategic plan. Input from residents, business owners, and visitors was sought on a variety of topics including general thoughts and perceptions about: Chubbuck as a place to live, work, and play; quality of life; cultural, shopping, employment, civic, and recreational opportunities; safety; transportation; whether Chubbuck had a vibrant downtown and public spaces where people wanted to spend time; and quality of city services and infrastructure. When asked "What does Chubbuck's future "city center" look like, many responses seemed to treat the existing commercial corridor on Yellowstone Ave (State Highway US 91) as what would forever be the center hub for Chubbuck (e.g., "I don't envision a city center- it's always been a street"). Others could not identify an area for where a city center would occur with comments such as "Not sure what city center is or [where it is] located. We are {sic} so spread out in the city" and "Needs a more defined downtown area ... there is none at this point" and "Where is city center?". Others offered ideas for what they'd like to see in a city center area; suggestions included: • A walking district with businesses and eateries • Clean, shaded areas to sit on a bench, easily accessed by walking/riding bike or non -motorized vehicle, eating places, shopping set up like 'Station Park' in Farmington, UT. This could be done on a smaller scale with room to expand. Near new freeway interchange." • A gathering place with grass/parking for events, family -friendly and convenient. Library and other services would be concentrated there. • Outside shops with walking paths with restaurants and outdoor shopping. • Not on Yellowstone. Master -planned city center where citizens can park and walk between buildings. • Needs to be a more defined downtown area ... there is none at this point." • "Not on Yellowstone. Master planned city center where citizens can park and walk between buildings". Based on input from the surveys, the Council approved a strategic plan with the following action items (Exhibit 1): • Create a downtown plan for all ages and abilities. 1 • Develop a downtown plan to create an area in the city where youth will feel valued and have opportunities; ensure that youth have a seat at the planning stage table. • Develop a downtown plan with art and cultural opportunities throughout and with programmable and programmed space. Facility Needs Assessment- New City Hall In 2017, the City obtained the services of LCA Architects to perform a facility needs assessment based on historical and forecasted trends including city growth and associated city personnel needs to estimate future building and site area space. With the information from the study, the City was better able to understand budgeting and scheduling needs and to evaluate alternative approaches to solving facility needs. After reviewing the study and available options for funding, the Council and administration decided that the City would immediately pursue the construction of a new City Hall followed by a reconstruction of the existing city hall to be serve as a police station expansion. Downtown Pitch to City Council Based on the input received through the strategic planning process, in 2018 the community services and public works departments sought to identify areas in Chubbuck which could be home to both a more urban downtown of the City as well as to a city hall. Several areas were considered, including greenfield areas at the new Northgate Interchange and on Knudsen Boulevard, as well redevelopment possibilities, including the area between 1-86 at the south and Chubbuck Road at the north and the railroad tracks at the east and Yellowstone Avenue at the west, and other areas along Chubbuck Road and Yellowstone Avenue. Based on a city staff visit to the Idaho Central Credit Union headquarter campus in Chubbuck and having assessed surrounding development and conditions and of the plans and needs for the credit union, city staff proposed the including the area between 1-86 at the south and Chubbuck Road at the north and the railroad tracks at the east and Yellowstone Avenue at the west, and other areas along Chubbuck Road and Yellowstone Avenue as the site to pitch to the City Council as an option. In February 2018, the directors of the community services and public works department presented to the City Council. The presentation included the preliminary results of the strategic plan related to the community's input and desire for a downtown area, a concept drawing of a possible layout and land uses in the identified area, and rational for a downtown area in Chubbuck based on economic development and placemaking concepts. The Council was overwhelmingly supportive of the downtown concept and of locating the new city hall in the identified area and when the CEO of Idaho Central Credit Union stood and offered to secure an available piece of property for the new facility until the city could purchase it, the puzzle pieces fell together, and the downtown planning process commenced. 2 (Concept Plan presented to City Council) When it was decided to build the new City Hall near the corner of Burley Drive and Linden Avenue, the Chubbuck Development Authority quickly purchased approximately 7 acres of blighted or underdeveloped properties in the area so that the properties did not immediately redevelop under current city commercial zoning standards and so that they could be disposed of only once the City had developed zoning standards befitting a downtown area of the City. From 2018-2020, the city hall building and surrounding area were designed through the efforts of consultants and Chubbuck staff. With an eye to the future, the city hall property and those CDA - owned properties around it were redeveloped to have angled parking, streetlights and trees, and usable public space which could be programmed and used, and it is with the design of that project that a model was built for the streetscape in the Chubbuck downtown area. 3 Community Engagement Park II- Steering Committee In January 2020, a group of 32 stakeholders from across the community gathered to provide input in a visioning workshop facilitated by J -U -B Engineers, the Langdon Group, and Gateway Mapping, Inc. Stakeholders included representatives from the Idaho Department of Commerce, City of Chubbuck, Idaho Transportation Department, Pocatello-Chubbuck Chamber of Commerce, Portneuf Library District, REDI, Bannock Transportation Planning Organization, Chubbuck Development Authority, SICOG, Myers Anderson Architects, Pocatello Regional Transit, Jackson Land Design, city residents, and representatives from a number of area businesses including Idaho Central Credit Union, Palace Theater, Patriot Square, . From the workshop, important elements where identified to be addressed in future planning efforts (Exhibit 2): • A theme should be developed for the downtown area- ideas for themes included using local natural features for names and symbols, ; • Art and street furniture are important and street furniture should be consistent; • The area should be a modernized urban area instead of attempting to reinvent and compete with Historic Pocatello; • The area should have representative art that includes murals, sculptures, and possibly wrapped utility boxes; • The area should be cozy and have areas for gathering; • If alleys are used they should be wide, clean, well -lit, and paved; • Well-designed lighting and streetscapes are desired. Streetscapes should be landscaped and trees used for shade. • Streets should utilize angled parking for efficiencies. • Possibly publicly available amenities could include gas fire pits allowing for multi -season use, a skate park, outdoor bands, events, etc. • The downtown area should have multi -modal connectivity with other areas of the city. Community Engagement Park III- Community Surveys Following the visioning workshop, from 2020 — 2021, a number of community surveys where provided to the community for input on a number of specific elements in the downtown area (Exhibit 3). With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic affecting the ability to gather in-person, online surveys and use of the City's social media pages and the use of the app, Nextdoor, were to be deemed appropriate to collect feedback from city residents, businesses, and others within the broader Portneuf Valley. With concurrent construction of the new city hall building in the new downtown area and the need to create additional local streets and streetscapes, survey results influenced choices that were made for lighting and street names (local natural features). Furthermore, results of the survey were used to influence this plan and will be used to create the ensuing downtown subarea ordinance of codes and standards. Existing Uses and Conditions The area from 1-86 at the south and Chubbuck Road at the north and the railroad tracks at the east and Yellowstone Avenue at the west contains approximately 100 acres of land and a variety of land uses ranging from the newly developed Idaho Central Credit Union headquarter campus (ICCU owned approximately 1/3 of the entire 100 acre area), self-service storage units, aged large lot residential properties, gas stations, banks, fast food and other restaurants, and other interspersed. Although the area of the identified district along Yellowstone Avenue and Chubbuck Road experienced private investment for redevelopment, the internal area not fronting the arterial streets largely have not (apart from the ICCU campus). Again, not including property owned by Idaho Central Credit Union, approximately 20 acres of the area are currently undeveloped without residential or commercial structures. The Village area contains 2 major arterial roads, Yellowstone Avenue (state highway 91) and Chubbuck Road, 1 functionally designated minor arterial (Burley Drive), 2 functionally classified collectors (Linden Avenue and Evans Lane), and five local streets including: East Burnside, Evans Lane, East Linden Avenue, Kinport Crossing, and Scout Mountain Way, Kinport Cross and Scout Mountain Way are the newest streets and together with the streetscape improvements on Burley Drive and E. Linden Ave that were done as part of the new city hall project, they serve to model the vision for the rest of the street network internal to Chubbuck Village. The blocks in this area are longer that what is typically promoted for highly walkable and accessible developments with the distances being as shown below: 4w,-4 R. —920' —434' —920' —354' —1365' —630' 1 1 —630' 420' —970' —425' —652' 656' Implementation Goals & Policies To create a long-lasting downtown area that attracts businesses and residents alike, the identified area in its current form will require modifications to zoning, its built form, and land uses and structures. To facilitate the transition, as a policy of this district plan, the goals and policies of this Plan are adopted by the City of Chubbuck into the Comprehensive Plan and supersede and control any conflicting goals and policies found in other portions of the Comprehensive Plan: L Goal 1: A transportation network will be developed which will promote enhanced pedestrian and bicycle mobility within and to the Village area. Policies: a. This map is adopted as the functional class road map for the Chubbuck Village area for the purpose of identifying type, design, and function. While general street and right-of-way locations are identified in the map below, it is not intended to set specific locations; deviations in specific route location may be approved through the development or permit approval process provided the proposed route meets the intent of this Plan. 7 b. Properties which are adjacent to streets and/or walkways or which have proposed streets and/or pedestrian corridor locations containing the streets and/or walkways will be required to develop/redevelop in accordance with this plan. 1. Right -of -Way and Improvement Requirements for Evans, E. Linden, and Burley Drive and other streets where angled parking is used (below; large copy on file with staff) u« PfPICU STREET SFCTiU W/ 45 ANGLEC =4WM G 2. Right -of -Way and Improvement Requirements for all other streets where parallel parking is used (below; large copy on file with staff) W/ PARALLEL PARKING 3. Typical locations and dimensions of striping, lighting, trees, and curb extensions (below; large copy on file with staff) 4. Pedestrian corridors (or walkways/paseos) shall be designed in relationship with their surrounding building environment at the pedestrian scale. When pedestrian corridor, or paseo, is encroached upon by buildings, the City may be require that the taller the building the wider the corridor shall be and may require landscaping or other features to "soften" the space and make it more inviting for pedestrians. c. Through the development exaction and/or building permit process, defined streetscape and pedestrian corridors as shown in this plan will be dedicated and constructed. d. Sight triangle requirements are encouraged to be lessened in this district when compared with traditional commercial and mixed-use developments commonly found in the City. n e. Bicycle and pedestrian routes such as crosswalks, paths/sidewalks, bike lanes, etc., which connect to the Chubbuck Village area are a priority of the City. Priority crossings outside of the district itself which will encourage access to the district via alternative means of transportation are the installations of crosswalks on Yellowstone Avenue from 1-86 north to Park and on Chubbuck Road from Hawthorne Road to Hiline Road. f. Through a combination of public and private efforts, bicycle racks shall be provided to encourage biking to the area and to prevent the use of trees, benches, trash bins, etc from being used for bicycle parking. Bicycle racks must be located to allow a clear walkway to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and racks should be located in either the furnishings zone or on curb extensions where possible. Inverted "U" and loop rail racks sturdily attached to the ground are preferred for normal sidewalk installation but all others except traditional/grid bike racks may be considered. Goal 2: Through a combination of street, sidewalk, on -street parking, landscaping, lighting, setbacks and architectural design requirements, the public realm is inviting, accessible, aesthetic, and safe and ensure that the district is visually cohesive. Policies: a. Streetscape types will include street -level setbacks (build -to line) where necessary to create a street wall by locating buildings adjacent to the sidewalk or front property line. b. Alleyways are encouraged and when used, will require designs that recognize them as programmable public space and a right-of-way. Public art and building access through alleys are encouraged to activate the spaces. The use of alleys for commercial unloading is encouraged. c. Tasteful public art, including murals, which enhance the intended characteristics of the district is strongly encouraged in the area to activate walls or otherwise blank spaces. d. Pedestrian accessibility is crucial between buildings and the public realm and public easements, sidewalk connections, and public entrance doors will be required. e. Street names, when new or changed, shall be reflective of natural features with proximity to Chubbuck, or to geographic features recognized commonly in the state of Idaho (i.e., "Idaho Street"). f. General architectural standards will be developed for structures in the Chubbuck Village area but it is not the intent of this plan to restrict creative solutions or plans. Architectural standards shall be reflective of the need to create buildings that enhance the public realm, that are compatible with surrounding (current and planned) structures and spaces, and that create an appealing visual interest without being overly prescriptive. g. Ground level architecture and design shall be such that pedestrian walks on sidewalks are interesting and engaging, factors which encourage walking. This can be accomplished through elements such as 9 store front windows with retail displays, outdoor dining areas, art displays, and placing restrictions on unbroken fagade appearances, requiring vertical fagade features, etc. h. Building heights will limited to specific minimum and maximum heights in order to create a unified district and to create a public realm in public rights-of-way (public or private) that is comfortable and inviting. i. Signs in the Chubbuck Village area will be limited to scale and location so they are not obtrusive and so that they enhance the public realm. j. Distinctive entry features, including arches, monuments, signs and other structures are encouraged to be planned and constructed to give the district an identify separate from the rest of the city. Such features should be reflective of the nature theme of the district. 1. Preferred Locations of Entry Features (below) wiI 10 k. Regulations will be developed that focus on form and function of the public realm to a greater extent than traditional zoning focused primarily on a separation of uses. Parking regulations will be adopted which promote on -street parking and shared parking areas (surface and garages) and which to decrease chances that the Village area will be "over -parked". Parking garages are highly encouraged to allow for more efficient use of the land area. Parking standards should be created in recognition of this policy which differ from policies in other parts of the city. Where uses locate in Chubbuck Village which exceed the number of street parking stalls fronting the property, the city may require that monies be collected towards the creation of parking areas in a common parking area in or near the district. m. Surface parking facilities shall be designed in accordance with CEPTED principles (Crime Prevention through Environmental Design) to maintain the setback and street wall of the frontage streetscape and tools for accomplishing the wall may include rows of trees or hedges, or decorative fencing/walls limited in height. n. To maximize land use efficiency in the district, stormwater improvements should collect and treat stormwater below ground with infiltrators. o. The City will identify street furniture such as street lights, trash receptacles, benches, etc. for use in the district in public space. Goal 3: Mixed land uses and the built form in Chubbuck Village will create synergy in the region which draws individuals, commerce, and events throughout the week and throughout the day. Policies: a. The below future land use plan/map is adopted as the policy for the land use growth in the Chubbuck Village area. Future Land Use boundaries are not intended to be firm geographic line and the intersections of land use designation boundaries, the policy offers flexibility to the City in determining exact zoning designation based on a site-specific analysis. 11 b. The Plan District -Zone District Conversations for the Future Land Use Map areas shall be as follows: Plan Designation Zoning District Permitted Highway HC- Highway Corridor Village V- Village Commercial As established in Table 4-3 of the Plan 12 c. Structures and uses currently existing at the time of this plan's adoption shall be allowed to remain in their current form and function but only permitted uses and structures shall be allowed. For existing structures, the City will develop and implement regulations and standards for minor modifications impacting the public realm such that minor modifications will not require complete compliance with the Chubbuck Village area standards but will bring the structure closer into the spirit and intent of the district's vision. d. Commercial lots and buildings within Chubbuck Village should be scaled such that local entrepreneurs have access to the property market thus creating a diverse mixture of property ownerships and uses through a use of dimensional or area maximums. e. A mixture of land uses is strongly desired and encouraged within Chubbuck Village so that the area draws visitors throughout the day and throughout the week. Methods to obtain this mixture could include limiting certain uses to certain geographic areas in the district or to limiting certain uses to maximum percentage of floor area of the entire district as a whole (e.g., secondhand retail uses limited to 5% of the total floor area square footage). Uses which will draw visitors to the area more frequently than others are preferred over those which will draw less frequent visitors. Examples of preferred uses include things such as a small grocery market, bakery, bicycle shop, restaurants, offices, studios and galleries, experiential activities, etc., all of which offer regular business hours during days/evenings and Saturdays. f. Shared sanitation facilities between uses are desired to minimize frequency of such facilities and dumpsters in the district. Dumpsters are encouraged to be located in alleyways. g. Events in Chubbuck Village are strongly desired and encouraged. With increased focus on the Chubbuck Village and with recent investments in usable public space around city hall on Linden Avenue, the district would be optimal as it develops for Chubbuck Days, farmers markets, food truck vendors, and other community -oriented events. Goal 4: Chubbuck Village will function through a combination of private, quasi -public, and public cooperation. Policies: a. The City should consider the use of a downtown business improvement district (BID) as the primary downtown administrative body responsible for programming events, landscaping maintenance, activating public spaces, creating common parking areas, advertising, etc. but until such time that the district is formed and deemed self -sustainable, the City will lead efforts for said functions. BIDS are allowed by Idaho Code Title 50, Chapter 26 and allow for cities to create an organization that is publicly sanctioned but privately directed. BIDS complement standard public services by adding opportunities for enhanced safety, cleanliness, physical improvements, parking areas, transportation services, etc., and a levy may be assessed on all businesses or business property within the district to pay the costs for desired features. b. With a recognized benefit to the broader public of having an urban space and to the economic potential in the district, the City will carefully analyze and strongly consider establishing an urban renewal area 13 containing the district so that tax increment financing is available to assist with public improvements of the streetscape and other areas deemed to be of important public interest. c. The City, with support and input from stakeholders, should pursue funding opportunities for infrastructure investments from: • Idaho Department of Commerce- Community Development Block Grant • BTPO allocations • City investments • Chubbuck Development Authority • Local and community sponsors • Other grant opportunities 14 W/ PARALLEL PARKING 7.5' ANGLED PARKING 4' TREE WELL (TYP.

The Plan was created through gathering community input through questionnaires, obtaining input from all City Departments, and having discussions with the City's elected officials. The result is a vision, key performance metrics to achieve by 2024, and identification of actionable opportunities to bring the Plan to fruition. While not a binding policy document, this Plan provides a roadmap to achieving the community's goals in consideration of the City's resource constraints. The Strategic Plan is intended to be a living document, reviewed annually by the City prior to budget presentations to identify emerging strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, and to have its action items amended as needed to add or remove projects crucial to accomplishing its key performance metrics. As part of the budgeting process and/or in other program shifts, City department heads should identify how their requests will further the goals and vision of this plan. Action items in the Plan are assigned to specific department heads (or division managers). The intent of this plan is that the action items are effectuated by identified department personnel and/or through coordination boards/commissions which are administered by department heads (e.g., Public Works Director, as Executive Director of the Chubbuck Development Authority (CDA), works with the CDA to fulfill a specific action item; the Planning & Development Director works with the Land Use & Development Commission to fulfill a specific action item). City of Chubbuck Strategic Plan oo Every year, department heads report on how their departments are fulfilling action items and the vision of the Plan oo Action items are reviewed annually by staff and elected officials to determine if changes should be made oo Every 5 years, questionnaires are sent to the public to evaluate how the performance metrics were met; the Plan is revised as needed 1 1 Page IMPLEMENTATION & ASSESSMENT CYCLE City of Chubbuck Strategic Plan 2 1 Page METHODOLOGY From December 27, 2017 through February 20, 2018, the City of Chubbuck sought input from area residents on a questionnaire which would lead towards the creation of the City's Strategic Plan. The questions were drafted by City of Chubbuck Staff and reviewed by the City Council prior to seeking responses. The survey was not intended to be exclusive to City of Chubbuck residents as City Staff and the Council sought input from all residents within and near the City. The questionnaire occurred in 2 formats, one being digital in which a Survey Monkey link was published on the City's social media accounts and Mayor's vlog, provided by the Highland High School Principal to students, and linked in the Mayor's December quarterly newsletter and the second form being paper surveys which were mailed to randomly selected households within the City of Chubbuck. Randomly selected households were determined using mailing info received on November 14, 2018 from the City of Chubbuck's utility billing database under the City Clerk. Responses were incentivized through a drawing for 5 $25.00 gift cards to an area restaurant through the Pocatello-Chubbuck Chamber of Commerce. The database contained 4,367 billing addresses and was converted from .txt format to Excel format. Duplicate names were removed from the database using the "Remove Duplicate" data tool in Excel leaving 4,047 unique names, and the list was randomized using the "RANDBETWEEN" function. With the list randomized, the first 600 names were selected. Finally, businesses were removed from the list to create a list of 543 random survey recipients. Paper surveys were distributed along with postage paid return envelopes via the Highland High School Honor Society and a local church youth group. The Questionnaire for the Strategic Plan received 409 responses with 332 of the responses coming from respondents who indicated that they reside in the City of Chubbuck. At a 95% confidence level, using 2016 ACS 5 - Year estimates that the City of Chubbuck has 14,644 residents, responses for those who so indicated that they reside in the City have a confidence interval of +/- 5.4%. Survey results for Chubbuck residents and non-Chubbuck residents are included as appendices to this Plan (malicious comments redacted).

A Downtown Revitalization Plan, with public involvement and ongoing engagement with funding partners, is essential to move this important endeavor forward and position the City for success. Goals + Projects Following the adoption of the City's Strategic Plan, the City took a big step forward by hosting a workshop with business owners and key stakeholders, facilitated by City staff and consultants on January 27, 2020. The Mayor welcomed participants who identified the following goals and specific projects for downtown Chubbuck. w+eouroian Goals 1. Make Chubbuck a destination 2. Demonstrate community pride 3. Create better connectivity/walkability 4. Attract younger groups of people 5. Provide more opportunities for events (food trucks, festivals, etc.) 6. Improve sidewalks and sitting areas 7. Attract new businesses 8. Incorporate art and history 9. Improve/utilize underdeveloped areas 10. Create a better environment for biking and walking 11. Maximize parking (both on street and off- street parking) Specific Projects • Clean up storefronts/establish facade program • Fix sidewalks • New landscaping • Better lighting • Murals and other history elements • Place -making and wayfinding signage • Event venues (music, recreation, children, etc.) • Outdoor seating/caf6 areas/benches • Implement design features from the ICCU campus • Install crosswalks • "Story walk" This valuable input will help guide the City with near-term planning and investment decisions. See attached Workshop Summary Chubbuck Downtown Recommendations I January 2020 1 1 How to Move Forward In order to make the community's vision come true, there are very distinct steps that should be taken to achieve success. For downtown planning, the best place to start is by forming a Downtown Revitalization Steering Committee that can support the City with developing a Downtown Revitalization Plan. Other specialty committees may need to be formed in the future to implement specific projects identified in the Downtown Revitalization Plan, such as art, events, bike/pedestrian improvements, etc. With a strong vision and consensus, success is much more likely to occur if people who specialize in these areas are involved early and often. With some of the groundwork that has been established with the downtown visioning session, Chubbuck is in a position to move forward with a comprehensive Downtown Revitalization Plan with a focus on specific facets of downtown revitalization including community branding, art, benches, facade improvement programs, decorative lighting, wayfinding/signage, parking, agreed-upon street section(s), and public infrastructure. 2020 Issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) to create a Downtown Revitalization Plan Z.

Chubbuck Downtown Recommendations I January 2020 12 M Action Plan 1. Issue Request for Proposals for a Downtown Revitalization Plan It is recommended the City of Chubbuck issue an RFP for planning, grant writing, public involvement and engineering services to cover all facets of an implementable Downtown Revitalization Plan. 2. Develop Downtown Revitalization Plan Why does Chubbuck need a Downtown Revitalization Plan? A well -conceived and vetted plan rallied by the community will provide City decision -makers with a solid roadmap to follow. Moreover, funding agencies, such as the Idaho Department of Commerce, expect to see that the City has developed a plan with prioritized improvements that are supported by business owners and the public. Funding agencies also want to see that the City is ready to make real changes that will support long term economic growth for existing and future businesses. The Downtown Revitalization Plan should address the following items: • Existing Conditions Assessment • Priority Investment Areas & Phasing Plan • Multi -modal Circulation & Parking • Typical Street Sections • Concept Design for Top -priority Projects (i.e. Yellowstone Avenue beautification, Chubbuck Road corridor) • Cost Estimates for Top -priority Project(s) • Building & Street Design Standards • Zoning Code Revisions for Downtown District • Business Attraction Strategy • Strategic Funding Plan 3. Develop Strategic Funding Plan A Strategic Funding Plan is an important tool for implementing improvements identified in a Downtown Revitalization Plan. The Strategic Funding Plan can help identify which grants the City should pursue and guide the City in budgetary decisions. 4. Project Concept Development Once funding sources have been identified for priority projects, official concepts and construction cost estimates should be developed. These items are needed to support grant applications and further inform revitalization efforts. Concept plans can help the City with budgeting for matching dollars and determining what, if any, in-kind labor can be done to help reduce costs. S. Apply for Construction Grants Once a concept plan (with a construction cost estimate) is ready, the City of Chubbuck will be ready to apply for a grant or multiple grants to fund top priority construction improvements. The most lucrative grant to apply for is an Idaho Community Development Block Grant. Grant applications are due the week before Thanksgiving of each year and the maximum grant amount is limited to $500,000. Chubbuck Downtown Recommendations I January 2020 13 4MU 4111111111111111 _ Communication is Key Communication is essential when embarking on a community planning project of this magnitude and scope. Attendees at the January workshop expressed an interest in being informed on a regular basis so they can be aware of ongoing accomplishments and upcoming projects. It is recommended that the City of Chubbuck send out (email, mail and/or social media) a quarterly newsletter to workshop attendees and other interested parties. Ideally, the greater public would also be informed through local media outlets, social media, the City website and at community events. Sharing this information with the greater public could result in volunteers and stakeholders offering valuable input into this overall effort. The content of the first newsletter could report what was heard at the workshop and present next steps (i.e. grant applications in the works, projects currently underway, planned projects, status of establishing a downtown revitalization steering committee, etc.). There is a sign -in sheet attached to the Workshop Summary with contact information of those who attended the workshop. It is anticipated that some of the attendees will be interested in serving on the Downtown Revitalization Steering Committee.

City staff reviewed the recent public survey that was conducted to gain an understanding of the communities' ideas and concerns regarding creation of a downtown district. Feedback from that survey helped inform the Strategic Plan currently guiding downtown planning activities. City staff also shared visuals of the new City Hall building, planned for a site within the new downtown area; construction should begin this spring. Team members from the consulting firm J -U -B Engineers, Inc. provided an overview of the planning process and gave examples of recent Idaho communities that have undertaken similar efforts to revitalize their downtowns, explaining how the designs were developed, funding secured, and projects implemented. Participants spent the remainder of the workshop rotating through four small breakout discussion groups, each focused on a different aspect of a downtown plan, including themes, general design features, and preferred types of mobility and access. Ideas collected through the small group discussions will help inform future planning efforts. See attached Sign -in Sheet Questions and Comments Presentation questions 1.

I feel like these two seem very intentional in their decoration and they are large enough and yet controlled enough to add a nice "garden of flowers" feel to the sidewalks without feeling like they are in the way/overtaking the ground. They also look intentional as part of the planning rather than some of the first couple which look like they were put out as an afterthought. Please consider planters that will not disturb or destroy the sidewalks. 10/12/2020 10:20 AM The standard, medium size. 10/12/2020 8:52 AM Large ones 10/11/2020 10:15 PM 1st 2 10/11/2020 11:31 AM I like a combination of folksy and border wall. 10/11/2020 8:46 AM In decreasing order: Planters with low border walls, often the walls will double for seating. 10/11/2020 4:43 AM Medium to large.; Less formal or folksy planters, often crafted by local artists and cared for by neighbors or an adjacent business.; Medium sized planters with a more classic decoration. Typically large enough for a small tree, shrubs, and/or other plants. Seating and local art.

Any planter that is used needs to zero scape and not needing 10/1/2020 10:54 PM to be maintained. If we have to have staff water or weed that will require increased staff and increasing city budget. That can then increase resident taxes. The medium planters that double as seating 10/1/2020 10:51 PM The first group of the artsy/local made ones 10/1/2020 10:22 PM Not really how about plant fruit trees that people could eat from as the walk not take a bunch 10/1/2020 9:03 PM home to can just to eat while in the area kinda like the grocery stores have for kids Artsy by local talent 10/1/2020 7:50 PM The raised/bench ones 10/1/2020 7:25 PM i liked the random planters best 10/1/2020 5:47 PM flowers, scrubs and benches.

Also more modern -looking, like the middle one of the first 10/1/2020 1:35 PM three photos. I like the idea of having large sections of planters. Prevents people from J -walking. Also as 10/1/2020 1:14 PM long as the sidewalks are really wide then the larger planters and trees should be used. If the sidewalks of clear walking space is smaller than 6 feet wide then small planters should be used. I liked the planters in ground, and actually liked the in ground planters with low fencing more 10/1/2020 11:59 AM than I would have expected! It may be all the beautiful tulips in one of the images that are particularly swaying me.:) Support local artists! 10/1/2020 10:26 AM The ones with seating. 10/1/2020 10:01 AM Medium size planters, and low fencing. 10/1/2020 9:51 AM planters that double as a bench. Raised from the ground looks cleaner 10/1/2020 9:21 AM Something concrete or stone. What I liked was that it would be less maintenance. Chubbuck 10/1/2020 8:57 AM can't maintain what it has for plants, parks, flowers, etc. we need low maintenance. Wood breaks. Movable breaks. Concrete would be easier and durable.

The ones with planters. 10/12/2020 8:55 AM Planters 10/11/2020 10:16 PM My favorite are the receptacles with planters above them. 10/11/2020 8:49 AM In decreasing order: Receptacles with planters included above them.; Box shaped or enclosed 10/11/2020 4:46 AM receptacles - weather proof and somewhat tamper resistant. Can be decorated and/or made of different materials.; Artist designed receptacles, to reflect a theme or local culture. Receptacles with planters included above them. 10/9/2020 11:27 PM Dome topped and composite slatted ones 10/9/2020 5:27 PM Covered trash bins 10/9/2020 4:09 PM Covered Ones 10/9/2020 3:48 PM Metal composite matching light posts. I worry the maintenance costs on the planted ones 10/9/2020 3:43 PM would be too much. Also, I like the idea of local artists but not sure it would be worth the effort/cost due to vandalism. Artistic/decorative - support local artists! Support the community. 10/9/2020 3:16 PM standard ones 10/8/2020 11:58 AM I like the planter ones or the artist designed ones 10/6/2020 7:17 AM Local artist or plant covered. 10/6/2020 3:18 AM Planter receptacle 10/5/2020 10:37 PM Dome topped 10/5/2020 10:30 PM with planters 10/5/2020 10:36 AM No 10/3/2020 2:24 PM Open top square 10/2/2020 12:22 PM 12 & 18 10/2/2020 10:31 AM Nothing artsy.

The ones with planters are also nice! 10/1/2020 1:57 PM I prefer the receptacle's that have character and looks classy at the same time. 10/1/2020 1:16 PM I prefer the slotted or somewhat patterned receptacles the most, though incorporating the 10/1/2020 12:05 PM planters on top is a really interesting idea to make them more appealing!

I like the artistic designs too, something unique and can involve local artists. Again I'm voting for easy. Something that opens from the top so that it gets emptied. Also 10/1/2020 8:59 AM looking for durable. Small slats can bend or break.

Few styles: I'd like to have one style for the downtown area in general, and something else/unique for certain streets or blocks. Few Styles: I'm OK with a few different styles for different small areas or separate streets. Multiple styles: I think there could be several different styles unique to different areas and streets.

However, the artistic site furniture examples shown could be VERY cool. They are interesting, and could add pops of color to our new downtown. Now Receptacles with planters included above them. You pictured good alternatives Not really Recycling stations too Please N/A no No I hope both are maintenance free to keep staff numbers and cost as low as possible. no Having weather proof trash cans that are big enough to hold garbage would be best. Maybe even let local artists design on them. I love that we have a small community and allowing our members to show off their creations would be so cool to see!
