Dear City Council, I am unable to attend the meeting on February 7, 2001 because I am out of town. I hope you will consider this letter for the purpose of my opposition on my assessment. I realize improvements were supposedly done on the street to the side of my building, but to be assessed $2,289.92 seems way out of line for any benefits I have received. The street was repaved and new curbing was done on the east side of my property, neither of which seemed to be in too bad of shape prior to the new street being done. I had no choice or was not asked in advance of what I thought. I realize my property tax isn't at issue here with your council, but my taxes doubled this last year on top of your assessment for some reason. The contractor dug up my new sprinkler system to tear out the old curb. They left the sprinkler line above ground from October until the next April. Many people tripped over it all winter. I made many calls to John Millar asking if the contractor could move it because of liability. He said he would speak to Zollinger's. Nothing was ever done by the contractor. When spring 2000 came the sprinklers were put back in the ground, but they weren't set right. I had to call the original installer (Rainmakers) to come back and make the proper adjustments, at my cost. The grass was dug up from putting the curbing in and left as is. Again I called Mr. Millar and asked what was to be done with the torn up grass. He indicated Zollinger's were planning on coming over and either sodding in or reseeding it. After several calls I gave up and waited. It still has not been replanted. As far as I am concerned the work hasn't been completed, and once you have paid the contractor off the work won't be done. It was very inconvenient to have the construction go on as long as it did. To have them tear everything up and then leave for the winter was not very logical. For several weeks I had no access to my property from the driveway. We had to park across the street for several weeks. I understand construction is not convenient for anyone, but the extended time was inexcusable. I have other problems, but these are my main frustrations. Other than the traffic signal on main street I don't feel I was benefited. Please take this into consideration for me. Thank you ,and I am sorry I can't be in attendance, but I will be back on Friday the 9t''. Please feel free to call me or have me come in I would welcome the opportunity to speak to someone about this. Sincerely, Dana R. Miller 1°05 W.

When the work on L.I.D.31 was completed we each received a letter from the City of Rexburg showing us the Cost Breakdown of :said L.I.D. in the amount of $14,666.73• This was the amount due for all four townhouses. We were each -to pay 1/4 of this amount making each assessment $3,666.68, 2. We received a letter from the City of Rexburg dated January 19, 2001 in which the assessment for each'Townshouse had increased to $4,633.41 making an increase of $966.73 per Townhouse. It would be a grand total of $18,533.64. There was no information offered as to the reason for the increased assessment. 3.

Diamond Carol Smith Darrell Henderson 189 N 4000 E Rigby, ID 83442 -5751 Rexburg City Council City Hall 12 N. Center St. Rexburg, ID 83440 Council Members, February 1, 2001 On behalf of A. Glen and Ruth Henderson, I am responding to your notice of assessment of L.I.D. 31. It is unbelievable to see that you have decided to assess the owners of the 4 small townhouses $4633.41 each. Especially since they have received zero benefits from the stated improvements. Our parent's townhouse is about 1100 square feet. The owners of all the units are very elderly. They have suffered from breathing problems from the constant dust, heat dehydration from not being able to open their doors and windows to cool their units, constant infestations of hobo spiders, ants and mice because of the digging on three sides of their homes. Grandview Drive was not passable for quite some time. The noise of the backhoe and the jackhammer with the pounding of lava rock next to their retaining wall approx. 20 feet from their backdoors was extremely loud and constant. The dynamiting was very upsetting for them both physically and mentally. They were without water several times. Our mother ended up in the emergency room twice, once for mental stress and the second with a heart problem. Our Dad went to the ER for dehydration. The people in the other units have substantual health problems as well. All said and done, it turned out to be a spring and summer full of pure hell. The people of Grandview Estates would have never agreed to change the zoning of the property between them and the nursing home if they had known what was to come. Bob Lee, who owned the property to the south and the east of the Townhouses, met with all of them and persuaded them that everything would be fine and there would be nothing to worry about. He promised them that there would be four similar townhouses built across the street from them. He said that with his plans the value of their homes would increase. They have gone from approximately $85,000 in value to an offered amount of $50,000. He also said that he felt like he had a chance to sell the properties then, and might never have another chance to sell for a very long time. Everyone hesitantly agreed to go along with what Bob Lee asked for, because he seemed so nice to them and his mother -in -law lives in one of the four homes. He sold the properties and came out very well from what we've heard. Obviously the contractors on the south and the east built and sold the student apartment buildings and none of the promises were kept. I would like to add that the road in front of the Grandview Estates was a private road belonging to Grandview Estates most likely the city claims it now. No townhouses have been built on tie south side of Grandview Drive nor is there a privacy fence in their back yards (all promises of the developers). In closing, you might like to know that the elderly people in Grandview Estates fear that if they state any objections to the assessment that the members of the City Council will add another 20% on top of the 20% increase of the first assessment. These elderly citizens are living on a very limited income. I am told if they cannot pay the assessment in full when due, there will be 10% interest levied against them Please take another look at what you're assessing, $4,633.41 is really an extreme amount for 1100 square feet of living space. Then if you add another 20% on top of that amount it would be $5560.09 or over $5.00 /sq foot. Does each of the student apartments get assessed that much/sq foot? Have you even driven by to see what you are taxing? Do you want the senior citizens of Rexburg to live in fear of who or what is next on your list? The assessment you are asking for would pay for a lot of medications and takes many months of Social Security checks. Another big difference is the student apartment housing on the north, east, and south is income property and the Grandview Estates is family homes of three widows and one couple. When was the last time the City Council and the Planning and Zoning Commission approved high rise/high density housing or car washes in their neighborhood? When was the last time they assessed themselves for improvements ( ?) which did not benefit them? Hopefully the citizens of Rexburg will see what's been happening and start taking you to task over your acUorrs. See you at the eeting on February 7a`. .%ICLl/1292/L�- Jrfan L. Diamond 189 N. 4000 E. Rigby, ID 83442 RICHARD F. SMITH February 3, 2001 Rexburg City Council P 0 Box 280 Rexburg, Idaho 83440 637 Millhollow P0 Box 8 Rexburg, Idaho 83440 Telephone (208) 356 -4912 Fax (208) 356 -5959 Re: Public Hearing regarding proposed cellular tower— February 7, 2001 Dear council members, I regret not being able to attend the hearing scheduled for February 7, 2001 regarding the building of a proposed tower in the Rexburg impact zone. I present the following information and suggestions with the hope that it will assist in the decision which is before you. The proposed tower lies approximately 1/4 mile east of the Rexburg water tower and is adjacent to land which I own. The proposed sight is located in the impact zone of the City of Rexburg and it is my understanding that approval of the tower will be subject to a conditional use permit in the existing zone. At the current sight is a tower that does not exceed the height of the water tower and is unlighted. The construction of towers in this particular area is always a concern for safe aircraft operations. The area (indeed most of the city of Rexburg) lies within the protected area of the instrument approach to the Rexburg airport. As tower construction increases in this highly elevated area, the greater chance the instrument approach into the airport may be altered; thereby lowering the approach minimums and compromising the effectiveness of the instrument approach. The proposed location is also an area where life flight helicopter operations and my own personal helicopter operations have been conducted for the past 20 years. Numerous night operations occur over the exact area where the tower is proposed. When the current unlit tower was constructed all of us believed that the FAA would require that the tower be lighted. Apparently FAA regulations did not require that the tower be lighted. The current unlit tower in the area and any future ones are and will be a hazard to the safe operation of medial helicopter flight operations and other flight operations that have regularly used the area for the past 20 years. 0 I During the past five years, I have attended and expressed concern regarding the proliferation of towers in the area and their impact on the safe operation of aircraft in the area as well as the impact they have on future residential and commercial development. As a result of input from myself and many of the residents of the area, the planning and zoning commission or the city council have always imposed restrictions that the height of the towers do not exceed the height of other existing structures in the area. But the question as to whether a tower is an appropriate use in various areas seems to go imaddressed. I believe the council must address just how many towers will be allowed throughout Rexburg and in what areas they should or should not be allowed. Over and over again, requests are made to locate towers in areas that will ultimately be residential or commercial. Within a short time after the towers are constructed, many wonder just how compatible the tower is with the surrounding uses. Currently, 80 acres of my property lies within the city limits. Although there has not been a preliminary plat filed for the property, a proposed plat does exist. Future plans for the property are for residential use. Towers should not and cannot continue to be authorized pursuant to conditional use permits in these and other areas without due consideration of their impact on surrounding areas The city must determine how such a particular use impacts all zones and adopt specific zoning regulations assuring that the location of towers is compatible with surrounding development. I have felt so strongly about this issue that two existing towers located on property which I own — I mile to the north and east of the proposed location -- have been converted to very short term leases. The owners of the towers have been informed that at such time as future uses in the surrounding lands becomes incompatible with the towers, the leases will not renew and the towers will be removed. For the above reasons, I respectfully request that this tower not be allowed to be erected in the area until such time as the council takes the time to determine the long range effect of these structures in the area. In the event it is authorized, I request that it be allowed pursuant to the following conditions: 1. The tower not exceed the height of the Rexburg water tower or the unlighted tower which is located in close proximity to the proposed site. 2. The tower meet specific lighting requirements imposed by the city that are in addition to those required by the FAA and satisfy the concerns of existing users of the airspace. 3. The conditional use authorizing the tower be for a finite period. At such time as the tower is incompatible with future uses, it will no longer be authorized and it will be removed. Thank you for your consideration of this matter and for your many efforts in behalf of our community. Sincerely, R Richard F.

In the recent past our local college announced that they will be transitioning from a two year to a four year university. This will lead within 4 ,years to a significant shortfall in the number of housing units needed for married couples or families. It is anticipated that within four years there will be a need for an additional 1440 apartment units as shown on the attached housing outlook sheet from Ricks College. The two apartment complexes in question have provided a needed service for residents of the City of Rexburg and removing this financial aid from area residents will displace many families and will cause significant hardships on those families and on the overall housing market within the City of Rexburg. The City wishes to go on file as objecting to the transition of these units out of the USDA Rural Development program. If we can be of additional service to you in defining the effect of this change please contact City Hall at any time.

Contact Emergency Services for more information. The above list does not address every safety issue that may present itself. The inspector at his/her discretion may identify additional safety items that need to be remedied. Situations may arise that can't be feasibly remedied to satisfy this list. If at any time an owner or manager thinks that the inspection requests are excessive or unnecessary he /she may submit the matter to the Rexburg U.B.C. Board of Appeals for a decision. The inspector will notify the State of Idaho Electrical Inspector if any electrical problems exist that are out of the inspector's area of expertise. It is our intent to have only one inspector represent the City of Rexburg at the time of inspection. The Fire Department, the Building Department, the Water Department and Wastewater Department will combine and supply training for one inspector from the Building Department and one from the Fire Department. The intent is to have two trained inspectors with one acting as regular and the other as a back -up. This document is to be put in place following Rexburg City Council approval. All apartments seeking a new business License from the City of Rexburg shall be inspected and given 3 months to establish a plan of compliance. The owner shall have another 3 months to perform work, at which time an inspection by the City of Rexburg shall be called for. License will not be granted until work is completed satisfactorily according to the plan of compliance, at which time if owner is not compliant, such premise shall be vacated. All apartment owners in the City of Rexburg not seeking a new business license will be sent notices to supply the City of Rexburg Clerk with a proposal for compliance within 18 months of notice. Initial inspections will be scheduled at this time. Owners will have 3 years from original notice to complete work and have it inspected by the City for compliance or such premise shall be vacated until made to conform March 21, 2001 In Reference to: Apartment Life Safety Issues Rexburg City Council 12 N Center Rexburg, ID 83440 Dear Rexburg City Council, In your deliberations regarding the Life Safety issues for apartments, please consider the following. Home owners who rent a portion of their home (usually to one family unit) may find some of the safety requirements very prohibitive and /or un- necessary because of the design of the structure of their home. For example, a homeowner who rents the basement or 'lower-half' of their home may already have more than one exit available, at least one side of the rented area with large windows that can serve as emergency exits, and sufficient safety precautions already in place to meet the recommended safety code if that area was being used for members of their family. However, the recommended safety code would be considered violated if occupied by the same number of persons though not members of the owner's family, Would that be fair to the homeowner? Should we encourage safety codes that would be an un- necessary burden to many of the home dwellings where normal occupancy of the home is not exceeded (and at times not even filled)? - I encourage good safety measures. I have lived in basements, and homes where safety was not duly considered. Some of those places would have been a `death -trap' if even a small fire had broken out. No one should have to live in un -safe dwellings. However, many of the `one home, two family' dwellings are no more occupied than if only one (larger) family lived there and thus no more un -safe than they should be. Please do not un -duly penalize the homes where sufficient safety for a regular family exists simply because they wish to tent otherwise un -used portions of their homes. They provide a much needed service to this community and I do not believe they pose a serious safety risk so long as they maintain proper safety practices and do not `over - populate' the available space. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Paul M. LaFollette 106 BIRCH AVE. RE %BURG, ID 93440 OBJECTIVE: TWO, "DIRT INFIELD" SOFTBALL DIAMONDS AT COMMUNITY FIELD FOR HIGH SCHOOL GIRL'S SOFTBALL TEAMS. PRO'S: Allow us more home games. Allow us practice on dirt fields, on which we play ALL away games. Allow us use of the school's batting cages. Allow us access to electricity for pitching machines. Allow us access to restrooms. Eliminate travel to and from practice (safety of girls) Allow us a gate to charge admission. Allow us the possibility of home tournaments. Allow us to bid on District & State tournaments. Close proximity to city grounds equipment. Water hoses already installed. Allow us storage for our equipment. Allow us the use of the concession stand for fund raising. Allow us the prestige of being part of the athletic complex (football field, baseball field) Move's us closer to compliance with "title nine ". Allow us a field for summer games and tournaments. Allow us a field for summer skills camps and seminars. ALLOW US MORE HOME GAMES (greatly reducing the cost of our program) CONS: Little League will have to share dirt infields. Blowing Dust during high winds. (Minimal) PROPOSED RECIPE FOR FIELDS: (as per City of Idaho Falls) 1/3 good topsoil. (No charge) 1/3 pumice from Amcor in Idaho Falls. ($11.00 per yard) 1/3 red cinder ground fine from Mountain West Bark in Rexburg. ($11.00 per yard) Remove grass with sod cutter (from golf course). Till soil thoroughly, adding topsoil if needed. Add 1/2 pumice and turn under with harrows. Add 1/2 red cinder and turn under with harrows. Drag with flat drag. Add remaining topsoil, add remaining pumice and turn under with harrows, add remaining red cinder, and turn under with harrows. Drag well with flat drag. (City of Idaho Falls Park & Recreation Department use's this recipe on all fields in Idaho Falls. They have very little problem with blowing & maintenance. They have also cut down dramatically the number of games being "rained out.') MAINTENANCE: On game day wet field thoroughly with fire hose, open up with harrows, allow to dry for 20 minutes and then close with flat drag. Chalk for game. On rainy days open up with harrows, allow to dry, close with flat drag, and chalk for game MADISON BOBCAT SOFTBALL 2001 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA CITY OF REXBURG April 4, 2001 7:30 p.m. 1.

I honestly think that the entire community is concerned about safety. However, I, as well as many others, have great concerns over hnw to achieve this gnal, I feel it Important that you know a few things. A large number of apartment owners have an attorney en °}.3iner, to file law suit the minute the proposed Life Safety Issues are passed. A Rexburg attorney has convinned them this is the Only way to fight it. With so ,.any Issues valved...._ Disc- rimination (Apartment owners vs. Home owners), Litigation (some original owners as well as builders are not even alive at this time), Statute of Limitations going back over 30 years), Retroactive Regr,lat_inns, and conflicting interests of several �' b (One building a brand new apartment building^ at the ti�a• i.+ m2i�w2r& �v present time.

I understand that something is needed for the building inspector to use. Most of the issues in the Current Life Safety .Doomtlent I could live With. They would be costly, but T could come to terms with it. Everyone is aware of our situation with `.he egress windows. 11 left the council meeting two weeks ago, feeling okay with the idea that we could appeal that particular item with the proposal of heat sensors. When I mentioned that to others who are concerned, r was laughed at, and told an appeal is only legal i4 f there is a detail , clause (under the Specific ^f concern) stating your options. With this in mind, would you be willing to add ^aY clause to the bottom of item *7 stating something like this: 'St?ouldextreme conditions be present, and ONLY .upon the approval of the Rexburg City Council, ernative safety features may be acceptable." I honestly think the Life Safety Issues Document would be a.,.cepted by all, if a more conservative method of enforcement were used. For example, if it was stated (as Marsha Sjornn proposed at the last meeting) that thi- document would be enforced ONLY "PU remodeling or resale W ex sting apartment building.

Box 408 Rexburg, Idaho 83440 (208) 359 -3036 JOAnn Drussel, Chairman Madison County Senior Citizen's 40 South 2 "' West Rexburg, ID 33440 DearJOAnn and other interested seniors, The Golf Board met this week acid discussed the request for Madison County Senior Citizens to receive a discount on Season Passes. Actually we have discussed this topic yearly as prices are set. At this time we feel that we have addressed the senior citizen need by the punch card option which other courses do not offer. Realizing that many seniors do not play as much golf as when younger, we feel that for $200 a senior can play 24 rounds of golf using the punch card. Also for those who want to play 13 holes at a time, we recommend using the punch card for 9 holes and then pay the $5.50 difference which results in'saving almost $2.00 for 18 holes. I realize this is only true at Teton Lakes, but the low cost of playing the Municipal Course still only equals paying $204 for 24 rounds of golf. The Board at this point does not want to differentiate between Madison County and Non - County residents. A large percentage of season passes are sold to uon- county residents and as we try to keep our passes lower than all the other courses around here, we can't.jeopardize any revenue coming in. We appreciate your support of our local courses over the years. If you have any further thoughts on this issue, please feel free to call me or speak with Duffy.

We wish to request that Senior Citizens in Madison County receive a discount on Season Passes to play golf on Teton Lakes and The Rexburg Municipal golf courses. Many of us have physical problems that will not allow us to play as much golf as we did when we were younger. At Rigby we find that regular passes for people who do not belong to their corporation are $400.00, but Seniors can buy a season pass for $320.00. At Idaho Calls, to play the city courses (Pinecrest, Sage Lakes,. or Sandcreek) regular passes are $470.00. Senior season passes are $295.00. We would appreciate it if you would give some consideration to this request.

Our purpose is to unite parents, teachers, and students in efforts that will improve the high school and thereby improve the community. This year, our overall objective is to work together towards the beautification of the community as a whole. This will be accomplished through the combined efforts of parents, students, teachers, civic and business leaders to (1) beautify the character of each member of the community and (2) to beautify the physical surroundings of our homes, schools, and businesses. We want to help make the world a more beautiful place! (1) THE BEAUTIFICATION OF CHARACTER. One of the distinguishing characteristics of a civilized society is that it identifies and shares values, values designed for the common good of all members of the society. The character of a community is determined by the degree to which individual members of that community remain true to those shared values. To beautify the character of the members of our community, we will (a) increase individual awareness of our community values through the "Family Action Value of the Month Program" (see attached sheet); and (b) by encouraging the teaching of those values in our homes, our schools, our places of work, and in the community at large. As a PTSO, we will encourage teachers to look for ways to incorporate the values into their teaching, for example, through stories and quotes from great men and women whose lives exemplified those values. Students will be encouraged to incorporate the values into their school and personal activities. (2) THE BEAUTIFICATION OF PHYSICAL SURROUNDINGS. The condition and appearance of our external physical surroundings are a reflection of our inner values. As a PTSO we want to improve the landscape of Madison High School. We will work to raise enough money through grants and donations to purchase the necessary materials and will invite the student body to provide most of the labor. The beautification of the grounds will serve as a tribute to our community and a symbol of the values we share. A plan for effective maintenance will also be developed to ensure the continued beauty of the property. Additionally, we will invite the entire community to work together in this beautification effort. Families will be encouraged to beautify their homes; business leaders will be encouraged to beautify their places of business; and community leaders will be encouraged to beautify community properties. Through the efforts of everyone in the community, Rexburg can become a more beautiful place, a community whose values are reflected in appearance as well as actions. Thanks for all you have done and are doing to make the world a more beautiful place. We welcome any ideas you may have. By working together we can make a difference. If you have questions, feel free to contact either Camille Brooks, PTSO President (356 -0522) or Jill Anderson, PTSO Board Member (656- 0139). Students of Madison High School are teaming up with their teachers, members of the business community, civic leaders, and parents for a massive outdoor clean up project at Madison High School. The 'Tuesday May 15 s project was spearheaded by Madison high School PTSO Tres. Camille Brooks and is supported by Madison High School Administration, members of the PTSO Board, and the Madison School District. Local nurserymen and other businesses are combining their efforts to donate their design skills, labor and materials totaling more than $40,000.00 to help beautify the High School grounds. The High School PTSO Board hopes that this project will be a catalyst for the entire community of Rexburg to join with us during the week of May 14'h through May 19' and to take a look at our homes, neighborhoods, businesses, streets and other schools and for each of us to do our part to: WjA MO If each of us would pick up trash, get rid of weeds, and plant some flowers, think of how much more beautiful our fine city would become. The city of Rexburg is offering curbside pickup for your Spring Cleanup items (bags of leaves, yard clippings, and bundled branches cut in 3 -4 ft. lengths). They will pick up these items on the same day as your regular garbage pick up day. This service is offered from April 16' through June l' and is free of charge. Questions call City Hall. Share this letter with friends and family and encourage them to participate. The High School PTSO Board Questions call Jill Anderson 656 -0139 We have contacted the Principals of Adams Ele., Kennedy Ele., Lincoln Ele, Madison Middle School, Madison Jr. High, and Central High School and gave them each a copy of the one page letter (yellow page) and invited them to join with us during the week of May 14th -19th and to do what they could on their school grounds to: (We will be contacting the country schools very soon) "Help Make the World a Better and More Beautiful Place" If they all just picked up trash on that day it would be one small step towards our goal of helping each citizen, young or old, feel a responsibility towards keeping our community such a beautiful place to live and raise our families. Most principals reacted very favorably to the idea and plan to do something. •��x� +rt�xrwx xx�:xx xx� We also contacted Chief Lynn Archibald and shared with him the idea of his police officers issuing "Citations of Good Deeds" (see attached green sheet) throughout the city during that week in May to individuals, families, classes, schools, church groups, or businesses who are making efforts to pick up, clean up, and spruce up their property. He indicated that we have his full support and he would be happy to encourage positive behavior and actions in our fine community. We plan to go door to door to the businesses and leave them a letter (yellow page) and invite them to evaluate their property and join with us during that week also to make sure that their space has nice `curb appeal'. We want to advertise in the newspaper and on the radio about the major project taking place at the High School on the 15' and then invite all residents to really dig in during that week to take a look at their homes and yards and put in just a little extra effort to make things look great. We had an idea for sometime in the near future to implement a "Rexburg City Beautification Award" This could be awarded to several residences during each month from May -Sept ( ?) We would print their names and addresses in the newspaper and place a sign in their yard for all the world to see !!! We all love to have a pat on our backs don't we ?! ?! t w4ki tv HIM, CITY PTSO NEWS /MAY 1 5th CLEAN UP DAY We have received approval from the School District to landscape portions of the High School on May 15th. The nurseries in town,: Treehouse Nursery and Landscape, Merrill Landscape, Lone Pine Nursery & Tree Service, Mountain Meadows Nursery, Triple A, Spruce It Up, Stone Creek, Picture Perfect Landscaping, Coates Landscaping Supply, and Williams Forest Nursery have all graciously offered to help us. Several nurseries have helped design a portion of the High School and are donating the living items that go into their design. We will landscape the football field, the front and south sides of the school and the ditch . bank at the back of the building. Cleave Bagley from the Soil Conservation District has proposed a plan to fix up the ditch They will plant $50 shrubs along both sides of the ditch and 75 4 -5 ft. spruce trees with weed mat to make it maintenance free. Half the bushes planted will bloom in the spring and the other half will be red in the fall. The city has offered to help prepare the ground with their equipment. At some point in the future, the city will install a walking/ jogging path alongside as a part of the Greenbelt plans. For now, it will be cleaned up and greened up. Mountain West Bark Products Inc. will donate 12 5 yds. of bark, Edstrom Construction Inc. will donate 39 tons of boulders andslocaltfarmers will donate 300 yds. of soil. Squires Brick Inc. is helping with materials for a conversational area that will be built between the High School and the Seminary building. The conversational area will be built by Spruce It Up and will be paid for by the $900.00 earned by the students of the High School this past fall and $1,000.00 donation from Wal -Mart. The values from the Family Action Council will be engraved in the seats of the conversational area. Walters Cement will donate the sand and gravel for cement curbing and Allen Fullmer will donate his time to pour the 2,200 ft of curbing. He will also put In place permanent plaques in the areas each nursery designed. These plaques will be engraved by Rocky Mountain Trophy House with each nursery's name. The High School PTSO will pay for the cement and 35 flowering crab trees that will bloom each spring. We are so grateful to all these businesses who have offered to help and give so much May 1 5th, 3001 is the big day when the students of Madison High School will get out of school for half of the day to help clean up the grounds and to help with the planting of the trees and shrubs. We are asking for volunteers to assist our students during this project. All the students and adults who help will have their name and picture put in a Time Capsule which will be buried with the landscape and opened in $ 5 years to celebrate this historical day in our community. Flamm Funeral Home is helping with the urn to be used as the capsule and Idaho Travertine is donating the headstone which will have the theme Let's Make the World a Better and More Beautiful Place "engraved on it. There has been some concern that after the completion of this project there May 1 st through May 7`h During this period of time each nurserymen can prepare the ground of their particular area. The dirt and boulders will already have been delivered by April 30`h and so you may take what you need for your area. You may work anytime during these dates as long as it is completed by May 7th May 8th.9th.1 Oth Allen Fullmer will pour 2,200 sq ft. of curbing on these days. That is why we need you to have your area prepared by the 7`h. We have decided for many reasons to do the curbing before the big day of May 15`h. This is an awful lot for one man to do so please be prepared completely so when he shows up he can get right to it. ...... Allen, please pick up the gravel and sand from Walters yourself. They are planning on it. Pick up a check from me (Camille) a week beforehand. May 11th -14th Th cement curbing will be drying. May 14" & 15`h The bark will be delivered May 1 Vh late in the afternoon by David Crapo and Mountain West Bark. You may then deliver it to your particular area on the morning of the 15`h while the youth are in school. Also have the living items laid out and hoses connected for watering (work that out with Nick).The students will get out of school at 1 2.20. We will feed them lunch in their classrooms and give them instructions of what outside work they will be doing. They will then go out as classes to work with their teacher, a civic leader, and a parent to supervise them. They will be able to work from 1 :00 -3.00 planting bushes, trees and spreading the bark. We will have the students bring shovels and rakes and the adults bring wheelbarrows, all marked with their names on them. At the completion of the project we will all meet at the conversational area and have a very short ceremony and bury the time capsule. Each individual who is present on this day will have their name and picture to place inside the capsule. It will be opened in 2 5 years to celebrate how big and beautiful the trees have become. Your children and grandchildren will be so proud of what you have given to the community.
