NOTE: WMA trails are not managed by the City, but by IDFG as part of the WMA. R2R has an agreement to post these trails on their maps/website but maintenance is conducted by IDFG. With more use, there is more erosion and higher expectations that they will be maintained like the rest of the R2R trails. This furthers the case to provide managed connectivity away from the WMA.

Status of Coordination with Development Team

  • Barber Valley Trail
    • BVNA will request a public trail easement but not along the entire east boundary of Finis Terra
    • Our request is to continue a public easement from somewhere along the east boundary (even the NE corner) of the development into the public streets.
    • The objective would be to connect Finis Terra with future development on the Duesman and Englesby parcels (zoned RP)
    • Wildlife Corridor
      • Nearby neighbors met with the Land Trust of the Treasure Valley (LTTV) to explore the feasibility and interest in a conservation easement ‘off-site’ in the Pet Haven gulch
      • This would support Idaho F&G “Option 3” but was not supported by the landowners in the Pet Haven gulch

Trails Have Been a Significant Discussion For Both Pheasant Heights and Finis Terra

 Trail Notes

  • East Valley – Barber Valley Trail
    • A soil hardener (Soiltac®) was applied in mid-July to the two steep hill sections of the East Valley trail. Future maintenance becomes the responsibility of the owners (HOA Common Lot)
    • Please Note: the developer caused this problem (Conger Development Company) but it was rectified by resources ($6K) from the Barber Valley Development Corporation (Doug Fowler and Harris Family)
      • But…..Mr. Conger also provided an exceptional concrete path connection from The Rim at East Valley to the Greenbelt (through the old Ben’s Crow Inn access point). This connection was problematic due to US Bureau of Reclamation easement property (Pen Canal).
      • Greenbelt
      • Open!  Reminder that we had a problem with trespassing, which wasn’t helpful in negotiating the contractual repairs.
  • Wildlife Management Area (WMA) Reminder
  • Hunting season is here/coming!
  • Be vigilant and aware that you should stay on the trails when recreating in the WMA
  • Dogs on Leash! Especially as the game returns this winter
  • Reminder – the WMA may close if the winter is extreme (happens once every 10-12 yrs)

    • Council Springs Apartments are still in the review stage with the Harris Ranch Review Board
    • ACHD will be building a new bridge on Harris Ranch Road slated to begin in October of this year.

 

Board Business

  • BVNA Board Vacancy
    • Phil Carrillo resignation; Stasi Bellomy volunteer to assume Brian “seat” on the BVNA Board to complete Phil’s term (expires January 2020).
    • Strategy Review – Finis Terra (deferred hearing on 10 September)
    • Wildlife Corridor and Wildlife Mitigation Fund status
    • Barber Valley Path status
    • BVNA testimony assignment
      • Past/Overdue Business.  The BVNA by-laws designate January as the annual meeting due to the elections of the board members (Section 2.4 and 4.3) . However, it does not establish a specific day for the annual meeting, such as the second Thursday of the month. Could BVNA amend the by-laws to designate that specific day at an upcoming meeting, per the standards in Section 7.1?
