Idaho Falls, ID 83404
Dear Tamla,
For the past few months I have been inspecting the ongoing construction taking
place at the American Manor Apartments. Your contractor, Scott Caffaro seems to
be doing a good job and has been pleasant to work with. He has addressed the
issues I have needed taken care of promptly. Your request for Conditional
Occupancy can be met by meeting the schedule which I have attached to this letter.
I have tried to set the schedule to meet your needs in performing some of the
interior work during the break between college semesters.
Thank you for your consideration in these matters. If you have any questions, I
can be reached at 359-3020 ext. 314.
Sincerely,
Val Christensen
Assistant Engineer

Excuse John Watson
Ted made a motion to approve the minutes of August 9, 2000, Bobbette seconded motion. All
voted aye, none opposed.
Public Hearing for Glen Reed for zone change at 41" West
Stephen read the Notice of Public Hearing. John reviewed and described the location of the
property, between 4`" and 5h South along the canal on the east side of the road and the proposed
tentative plans of Mr. Reed.
Davawn opened the public hearing.
Janice Allison - 405 W. 4' South
She lives across the street from the mentioned property and questioned what the plans are for this
location. This area is highly residential and she does not feel the street can handle the additional
traffic, the road is dangerous, there is a hazardous corner and there are a lot of accidents at that
location.
No fiirther comment and the public hearing was closed.
Discussion was on this property being left HBD, depending on the business that might go in it
could create more traffic than apartments would and the need to address the road and bridge as a
safety hazard.
Mike made a motion to approve the zone change from HBD to HDR and send on to public
hearing with the City Council. Doug seconded motion, all voted aye, none opposed.
Todd Hill - Zone Change at 10 Barney Dairy Road
John showed an aerial map showing the location of this property south of Barney Dairy Road and
east of 3rd East across the road from District 7 Health. This parcel is currently zoned industrial
and they are requesting a change to HBD.
Ray Walker owns the property and felt good about the change. He feels it can't be used for an
industrial use anyway and this proposal would be a good use of the property.
Nannette Hill, wife of Todd, presented a new drawing showing the proposed use of the land.
Roger made a motion to send this request to public hearing, Ted seconded the motion. All voted
aye, none opposed.
Bonnie Rice - 502 E. I' North - CUP for apartment
John related the history of the property in question located on the corner of Millhollow and 1,`
North. It has a 3 car garage, circular driveway, basement is a half basement with egress windows
and in the past was used as a separate living residence. The property is located in LDRI and does
require a conditional use permit.
Bonnie states that 2 cars will be in the garage and the driveway is large enough to allow 2 cars,
giving this parcel ample parking. The plan is to use the apartment for 4 students. A person can
crawl out of all the bedrooms windows, the Fire Department has been there to check all the
smoke alarms.
Doug made a motion for this request for a conditional use permit to go to public hearing with a
condition that it meet the building standards. Motion was seconded by Bobbette. All voted aye,
none opposed.
Gene Palmer preliminary plat approval for Hidden Valley Estates subdivision.
Boyd Cardon presented the plat and explained where the second phase would be located in
comparison to Phase I. There is a ditch along the property which is owned by Woodmansee-
Johnson Canal Company which is used basically for drainage but will be kept opened.
The plat needs information which is defined in the Subdivision Ordinance as well as showing
drainage, water and sewer. The property also needs to go through the annexation process. There
was discussion concerning the roads, sewer, water and other missing items.

Mike made a motion to table this for further details and paper work. Ted seconded the motion.
All voted aye, none opposed.
Tamla Rencher - American Manor Parking Lot
This project was before Planning & Zoning approximately a month ago. Due to timing problems
in getting this ready for rental this fall it has moved ahead out of necessity. There are items still
outstanding, including the buffer area on the south, and the retaining wall on the north side. The
parking for the dentist office, which will remain a dentist office for 4 years had no off-street
parking before and cannot now be required to be added in. There was discussion on the amount
of parking, the landscape, how much better the parking lot is now than it ever has been and the
efforts in trying to work with them to get this long standing problem cleared up. There are issues
still remaining to be cleared up with the neighbors.
Chris and Barbara Mann, neighbors, expressed concern that it be completed and completed nicely.
Stephen assured the neighbors this will not be approved and still rentable without all the issues
resolved. He explained the efforts that have been made in meeting with her regularly to work
with her in an effort to clear this matter up.
No action could be taken, Planning & Zoning just needs to be kept informed.
Davawn discussed the upcoming proposed changes to the Parking Ordinance. Bryce Owen from
Ricks College was invited to join in the discussion. After a lengthy discussion, it was determined
to keep the suggested parking requirements in place until the public hearing which will take place
on September 13.
Meeting was adjourned.

RE: occupation on American Manor C building apartments
Dear John Millar,
This is to certify that students will not be occupying the C building , i.e., C1, C2, C3, C4
apartment, until you have personally given your verbal and/or written reapproval after
a final inspection.
Thank you for your assistance and cooperation. It is greatly appreciated.

Public Works Facilitator
City of Rexburg
Dear John.
I have read Tamla Rencher's letter and do not agree with her statement that she is ,not
remodeling, changing or building anything". She goes on to say that all of the work is being
performed because of the "list" which we have provided her and that she is "making no
modifications". Many of the work items being performed at the American Manor Apartments are
not those created by the "list". The list below identifies some of these items:
1. The removal of the "eyebrow" eaves is one example. Each of the apartment
buildings thus far have had this work performed. This work was not part of our
correction list. It is not only cosmetic in nature but involves structural changes
that include extension of the trusses to create a roof over the entrances.
2. The metal stairs to the units complete with the entire metal entrance structures are
being altered.
3. The lowering of the parking lot created the need for new concrete stairs. These
stairs must be built to meet the building code and therefore inspected. These stairs
also require handrails that must meet code requirements. When the lot was
lowered, walking surfaces were created that had adjacent drop-offs of over 30".
These areas require guardrails. I happened to drop in on American Manor about a
month ago when the railing installers were constructing the new iron railings. If I
had not, they would have installed all of the guardrails at a 36" height instead of
the 42" height required for R-1 use.
4. In one apartment a 2" high landing was installed when the exterior entrance
balcony remodeled. I don't know what they could have done instead, but by
performing the work without a permit and not letting us in the loop, we surely
could not help out with a solution.
5. The parking lot changes were not on the list. The excavation for the retaining
walls was so close to the foundations of the buildings that catastrophic failure
could easily have occurred with the slightest seismic activity. The contractor and
owner were proceeding without any professional guidelines and when confronted
by their own engineer ended up removing substantially undersized footings. The
critical design of the retaining wall was left to a contractor who admitted to me
that he had no real commercial experience and was just now breaking into the
field. If I had not been checking the work at the complex, the work would have
been completed in a seriously negligent manner.
6. By not providing us with a parking plan that adequately described the work that
was going to be performed, the sewer line therefore was not addressed. Once
again if we had not stopped by to monitor the work in progress, Im sure that the
plastic line would have been covered over with about twelve inches of dirt. This
winter the line would have frozen and we would have had a big mess on our hands.
Even if it didn't freeze it would have eventually busted from being buried too
shallow. Then the parking lot would have to be tore up and either a ductile iron
line like we finally received would have been placed with the proper amount of
blue board. All at Tamla's expense. She doesn't realize that we are not only
protecting others from her but we are protecting her from herself.
There are many other construction item that are on the "list" that we still need to inspect.
All of the drywall that Scott is placing for separation needs to be inspected. We inspect drywall
fastening on all applications and especially on firewall application. I have caught Scott on a few
occasions applying the drywall in the incorrect areas and on walls which have penetrations caused
by electrical service boxes. The drywall was only required on one side of the wall and could have
been installed on the other side that did not have the electrical panel.
Scotts tendencies have been to call us after an installation, instead of before. This is a
correct procedure if you don't have any questions about the work. The life -safety problem caused
by enclosing the area between the two buildings was a direct result of Scott's nonchalant attitude
toward the Building Department, After discussions with Scott and having read Tamla's letter, I
feel that his attitude is a reflection of hers. Her attitude can be clearly seen in her statement that
she had "not been aware that we needed the inspectors to be informed of the changes before being
started since they were the ones who made up the violation list".
Tamla has now provided us with a drainage plan that sends all of the water out into the
street. When I asked for a drainage plan I also asked how the water would be put into the system
or if french drains or surface retention would be used. I asked Scott Cafaro and Jeff Freiberg
these very questions. Scott informed me that Tamla just ignored him when he proposed the
question to her. Jeff called me back and stated that surface retention and french drains were out
of the question. The understanding that Tamla agreed to in order for us to provide her with
"conditional occupancy" is contingent on her finishing items by certain dates. Item #8 states
"Drainage system is regired for the entire complex. The current system is inadequate and will
only become worse as more grass and landscaped areas are removed and more asphalt is added.
The owner must provide city with a drainage plan. Completion Date - 6/30/00. Drainage System
construction shaould be started as soon as possible and continued until parking lot is
reconstructed. Completion Date - 8/31/04". The drainage plan was critical to parking lot
construction.
It is evident that Tamla regards our direction as insignificant. It is my opinion that she will
say and do almost anything to keep the construction progress going. We keep bowing to her wish
for a letter here and one there that will help her get her financing. She will even spend $5000 on a
plan that does nothing for her (i.e. the parking lot is already built) and nothing for us. She will
install footings and then tear them out rather that get our opinion. I guess I am at a loss as to
how we should treat this situation. I think that the improvements to the complex are very good
for our community and I am willing to continue trying to work with Tamla to reach the end goal.
Thank you,
Val Christensen

Recently I was asked by Scott Caffaro if there was a way that one of the units in American
Manor Building A could be used for a family who you were evicting. I talked with my superiors
and they felt that if it would be a charitable offering (rent free) and that one of the units on the
lower floors was safe enough, then the possibility existed. I met with Scott Caffaro to try and
locate a suitable unit on Tuesday December 26, 2000. What I found is that you have illegally
moved a tenant into Building A without notifying us.
Our recent decision to grant you an occupancy permit for Building C was done as a favor
to you so that you could stay financially solvent. The granting of that permit was based solely on
an understanding of trust. John Millar went out on a limb to help you. If it bad been up to me
you would have had to abide by the original agreements that you made with us.
As a result of your decision to illegally move another tenant into Building A, you have put
the occupancy of Building B and Building C in jeopardy. Building B is connected to Building A.
The original list of construction items that you agreed to perform includes a two-hour wall
between Building A and Building B. As long as Building A was not occupied we did not feel that
an unsafe situation existed. Please immediately remove the tenants from Building A or I will
revoke your Occupancy for Buildings B and C. If you have any questions, I can be reached at
359-3020 ext. 314.

Rexburg, ID 83440
Dear Val Christensen,
The C building is ready for re -inspection. The list of items that you attached to the
certificate of occupancy is complete. Those items had to be removed and then reattached
due to the double drywall construction --but no one has been occupying C1, C2, C3, or C4
during this process.
No one is occupying the A building either. It is being used for storage, and hence, no one
is allowed in two apartments A6 and A14 so missing items will not be my responsibility.
They contain wedding gifts and personal boxes of storage.
I was confused by your earlier angry letter. I was not "evicting" anyone. No one was
living in the A building. I had not asked or authorized Scott to visit with you about
anything or anyone except to get construction codes, inspections, and advise.
I agree that John Millar is an asset to the city of Rexburg, deserves great respect, and
works well with people. I am very aware that you would not have "gone out on a limb" to
help me get a loan, while John Millar did. I am most grateful for his wisdom, compassion,
insight to other's concerns, and his ability to solve problems, I agree that he is a
remarkable leader.
I promised John that no one would be living in building C or building A without his or
your personal permission. No one is! I have not violated that promise or trust.
Aaron Gamble had asked me if he could move back into the apartment he had been in
before being a manager for me. I told him, "No, I promised John Millar than no one
would be living in the A building without Val Christensen's personal permission." When
he persisted, I told him that if he personally visited with you (that is, not asking anyone
else-- me or Jim or Scott or anyone) and get your written permission addressed to me for
this exception, then I would consider it.
I specifically asked Jim and Scott not to get involved, because this had nothing to do with
certification, regulations, American Manor construction, etc. This was a personal matter
for Aaron and his family, and had nothing to do with the construction crew or me as the
owner. I made that very clear to Aaron. Scott was out of line to talk to you about a favor
for Aaron. He had no authority from me, in fact he was told not to. That was Aaron's
responsibility.
If I had instead secretly "illegally moved" Aaron or someone into the A building, I would
not have received such an accusing letter from you because you would have been unaware
of it. On the contrary, I denied him access without your written permission to be sure I
was acting completely in accord with my promise. No one is or was living there.
There is double (and in some places triple) drywall between building A, building B, and
building C. The occupancy certificate of Building B was never in danger of being revoked
by students living in building B. We had already spent much time and money to add layers
of drywall between apartments as well as between empty buildings. Even if someone had
been living in A6 or Al or Al l (which they weren't and aren't), there is more than a two
hour burn between the first column of A and the last column of C. The students would
never have been in danger. I was confused by your outrage of this misunderstanding.
I am honestly not trying to be difficult in this situation --but with John Millar's foresight, I
am trying to turn American Manor into a beautiful, useable, and higher taxable real estate
for the city of Rexburg, neighbors, students, and everyone. Having the buildings just sit
and become an "eye sore" without use and upkeep, is the easy answer, but not the smart
one. Yes, sometimes people have to go "out on a limb" to help projects and people who
are trying to do good and make improvements. And yes, I am grateful that John Millar is
one of them.
I am sorry for any frustration this misunderstanding has caused.
The C building is ready for your re -inspection. No one is living there.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Tamta Rencher "

No one is occupying the A building either. It is being used for storage, and hence, no one
is allowed in two apartments A6 and A14 so missing items will not be my responsibility.
They contain wedding gifts and personal boxes of storage.
I was confused by your earlier angry letter. I was not "evicting" anyone. No one was
living in the A building. I had not asked or authorized Scott to visit with you about
anything or anyone except to get construction codes, inspections, and advise.
I agree that John Millar is an asset to the city of Rexburg, deserves great respect, and
works well with people. I am very aware that you would not have "gone out on a limb" to
help me get a loan, while John Millar did. I am most grateful for his wisdom, compassion,
insight to other's concerns, and his ability to solve problems. I agree that he is a
remarkable leader.
I promised John that no one would be living in building C or building A without his or
your personal permission. No one is! I have not violated that promise or trust.
Aaron Gamble had asked me if he could move back into the apartment he had been in
before being a manager for me. I told him, "No, I promised John Millar than no one
would be living in the A building without Val Christensen's personal permission." When
he persisted, I told him that if he personally visited with you (that is, not asking anyone
else-- me or Jim or Scott or anyone) and get your written permission addressed to me for
this exception, then I would consider it.
I specifically asked Jim and Scott not to get involved, because this had nothing to do with
certification, regulations, American Manor construction, etc. This was a personal matter
for Aaron and his family, and had nothing to do with the construction crew or me as the
owner. I made that very clear to Aaron. Scott was out of line to talk to you about a favor
for Aaron. He had no authority from me, in fact he was told not to. That was Aaron's
responsibility.
If I had instead secretly "illegally moved" Aaron or someone into the A building, I would
not have received such an accusing letter from you because you would have been unaware
of it. On the contrary, I denied him access without your written permission to be sure I
was acting completely in accord with my promise. No one is or was living there.
There is double (and in some places triple) drywall between building A, building B, and
building C. The occupancy certificate of Building B was never in danger of being revoked
by students living in building B. We had already spent much time and money to add layers
of drywall between apartments as well as between empty buildings. Even if someone had
been living in A6 or Al or AI I (which they weren't and aren't), there is more than a two
hour burn between the first column of A and the last column of C. The students would
never have been in danger. I was confused by your outrage of this misunderstanding.
I am honestly not trying to be difficult in this situation --but with John Millar's foresight, I
am trying to turn American Manor into a beautiful, useable, and higher taxable real estate
for the city of Rexburg, neighbors, students, and everyone. Having the buildings just sit
and become an "eye sore" without use and upkeep, is the easy answer, but not the smart
one. Yes, sometimes people have to go "out on a limb" to help projects and people who
are trying to do good and make improvements. And yes, I am grateful that John Millar is
one of them.
I am sorry for any frustration this misunderstanding has caused.
The C building is ready for your re -inspection. No one is living there.
Thank you.

Recently I was asked by Scott Caffaro if there was a way that one of the units in American
Manor Building A could be used for a family who you were evicting. I talked with my superiors
and they felt that if it would be a charitable offering (rent free) and that one of the units on the
lower floors was safe enough, then the possibility existed. I met with Scott Caffaro to try and
locate a suitable unit on Tuesday December 26, 2000. What I found is that you have illegally
moved a tenant into Building A without notifying us.
Our recent decision to grant you an occupancy permit for Building C was done as a favor
to you so that you could stay financially solvent. The granting of that permit was based solely on
an understanding of trust. John Millar went out on a limb to help you. If it had been up to me
you would have had to abide by the original agreements that you made with us.
As a result of your decision to illegally move another tenant into Building A, you have put
the occupancy of Building B and Building C in jeopardy. Building B is connected to Building A.
The original list of construction items that you agreed to perform includes a two-hour wall
between Building A and Building B. As long as Building A was not occupied we did not feel that
an unsafe situation existed. Please immediately remove the tenants from Building A or I will
revoke your Occupancy for Buildings B and C. If you have any questions, I can be reached at
359-3020 ext. 314.

Re: State v. Tamla Rencher
Dear Mr. Lee:
Over the course of the past 18 to 24 months, Ms. Rencher has obtained numerous permits
and conditional occupancy provisions, as I am sure you are aware. In doing so, she made several
representations, upon which the permits were conditioned. The public hearings which have taken
place have served to formalize many of the stipulations that Ms. Rencher has entered into, as
well as letter agreements between the City of Rexburg and Ms. Rencher, to which I believe you
are privy. To enumerate all of the items to which she has agreed would be redundant, and
somewhat burdensome, although if you are making a formal request for discovery, I can provide
you with the information in the course of preparing to convict your client.
As I discussed with your client last week, it would go a long way toward resolving the
criminal matter, if she would complete as much of the agreed upon work prior to the pre-trial as
possible. In particular, I referenced a fence between her property and.the neighbors to the South.
While I do not believe nor did I intend to represent that the fence alone would fulfill all of her
agreements with the City, it would remove the issue of directed complaints from the neighbor.
At this point in time Ms. Rencher is in possession of all of the documents setting forth the
items she needs to complete, and should work with all haste to complete the same in accordance
with the terms of our previous agreements. Should you or your client wish to discuss the
specifics of these agreements, I would be happy to set up a meeting between our building
department and whomever you desire to bring. Let me know of your wishes.
Sincerely,

This letter is written in response to your call concerning the American Manor Apartments.
At this time Ms. Rencher is in compliance with the time schedule that was required for a
conditional occupancy permit for the American Manor Apartments. The one item that causes the
City of Rexburg Building Department concern is the parking lot. Ms. Rencher has left a portion
of the parking tot unfinished. The unfinished portion is being parked on and vehicles are tracking
mud onto the city street. Even though Ms. Rencher was not required to add this section of
parking lot at this time, she now needs to finish it off with asphalt.
Please let me know if I have answered all your questions on this matter. I can be reached
at 359-3020 ext. 324.

Dear Tamla:
I have reviewed the plans for the parking lot at American Manor and have found the
following discrepancies:
1. The lot has been designed with parking in the front yard set -back. This is not
allowed as per Section 5.6 in the Parking Regulations.
2. The lot has not been designed for adequate landscaping requirements as per
Section 5.5 I in the Parking Regulations.
3. Shrubbery located on the neighbors lot can not qualify as necessary screening as
per Section 4.7 A2 of the Supplementary Regulations. The same house lot is not
shown to be screened on its East property line.
4. Plan shows power pole marked as retain and protect that is clearly in the traffic
aisles.
5. Plan shows house with 19 parking places in rear. This property is not owned by
the developer and is confusing at best.
6. The Fire Department has found that the aisle widths do not meet their needs.
7. The Fire Department has identified the need of another fire hydrant.
8. Drainage plans are not shown for the rear of the long building on the north side.
The current drainage gutter cuts across the sidewalk and empties into the street
gutter. It is covered with a loose metal top and creates a tripping hazard.
Another problem that has evolved is the lowering of the parking lot. On July 10, 2000, I
was called to American Manor for an inspection. Kauer Construction was proceeding to remove
the asphalt and concrete surfaces of the existing parking lot. Scott Cafaro informed me that they
were going to lower the height of the parking lot by about 4' at the highest locations. He
informed me that there would be retaining walls around the entire complex to separate the
walkways around the apartments from the driveway. He further stated that he was planning to
install handrails along these sidewalks because they would now have a drop-off to the parking lot.
I informed Mr. Cafaro that he would be taking at least 6 units that had entrances that were
accessible and would now make them non -accessible. Furthermore, I instructed him that the laws
were aimed at making units more accessible instead of the contrary. I instructed him at that time
that the parking plan that we were planning on presenting at the July 12th Planning and Zoning
meeting did not show these changes. He was also instructed that if he was going to continue with
the idea of lowering the parking lot, he would have to have handicap access to the walkways and
Parking that would work with them. I informed him that we needed plans showing how he was
going to construct the retaining walls behind the long building on the north side and the retaining
wall around the units. Finally I informed him that it would be nice if we were given plans that
accurately depicted that which was really going to be constructed so that we were approving the
right thing in our P&Z meeting.
At the P&Z meeting the group unanimously agreed that we need a plan that accurately
depicts the actual construction taking place. Please provide us with accurate drawings. Please let
me know if you have any questions. I can be reached at 359-3020 ext. 314.

Accompanying this letter is a letter I have prepared for Sharon Tuckett at Ricks College. I hope this
letter, will meet their needs. If not I will modify it as I can.
There are several items that are still outstanding from the list of 11. On of the major issues from
the letter of l I is the preparation and submission of a overall site drainage plan. This was to have
been submitted in June. This must be prepared and submitted as soon as possible. Please review
the list and complete all agreed to items.
We still have a problem with notification of repairs or changes prior to them being started. These
modifications have been done without a building permit for the current work or, repairs. The City
of Rexburg will be billing you for the inspection time that has been sent of bringing the buildings
into compliance.
Other outstanding items include the fence between you and the Manns' and final approval of the site
Plan by the Planning and Zoning. The fire department also requested that the fire hydrant by the
dentist office be replaced with a larger hydrant to allow for adequate fire suppression supply.
Please keep in mind that we want to work with you on this development and are pleased with the
improvements to date. Please keep us informed on what and when things are being done.

Dear John:
I have read Tamla Rencher's letter and do not agree with her statement that she is "not
remodeling, changing or building anything". She goes on to say that all of the work is being
performed because of the "list" which we have provided her and that she is "making no
modifications". Many of the work items being performed at the American Manor Apartments are
not those created by the "list". The list below identifies some of these items:
1. The removal of the "eyebrow" eaves is one example. Each of the apartment
buildings thus far have had this work performed. This work was not part of our
correction list. It is not only cosmetic in nature but involves structural changes
that include extension of the trusses to create a roof over the entrances.
2. The metal stairs to the units complete with the entire metal entrance structures are
being altered.
3. The lowering of the parking lot created the need for new concrete stairs. These
stairs must be built to meet the building code and therefore inspected. These stairs
also require handrails that must meet code requirements. When the lot was
lowered, walking surfaces were created that had adjacent drop-offs of over 30".
These areas require guardrails. I happened to drop in on American Manor about a
month ago when the railing installers were constructing the new iron railings. If I
had not, they would have installed all of the guardrails at a 36" height instead of
the 42" height required for R-1 use.
4. In one apartment a 2" high landing was installed when the exterior entrance
balcony remodeled. I don't know what they could have done instead, but by
performing the work without a permit and not letting us in the loop, we surely
could not help out with a solution.
5. The parking lot changes were not on the list. The excavation for the retaining
walls was so close to the foundations of the buildings that catastrophic failure
could easily have occurred with the slightest seismic activity. The contractor and
owner were proceeding without any professional guidelines and when confronted
by their own engineer ended up removing substantially undersized footings. The
critical design of the retaining wall was left to a contractor who admitted to me
that he had no real commercial experience and was just now breaking into the
field. If I had not been checking the work at the complex, the work would have
been completed in a seriously negligent manner.
6. By not providing us with a parking plan that adequately described the work that
was going to be performed, the sewer line therefore was not addressed. Once
again if we had not stopped by to monitor the work in progress, Im sure that the
plastic line would have been covered over with about twelve inches of dirt. This
winter the line would have frozen and we would have had a big mess on our hands.
Even if it didn't freeze it would have eventually busted from being buried too
shallow. Then the parking lot would have to be tore up and either a ductile iron
line like we finally received would have been placed with the proper amount of
blue board. All at Tamla's expense. She doesn't realize that we are not only
protecting others from her but we are protecting her from herself.
There are many other construction item that are on the "list" that we still need to inspect.
All of the drywall that Scott is placing for separation needs to be inspected. We inspect drywall
fastening on all applications and especially on firewall application. I have caught Scott on a few
occasions applying the drywall in the incorrect areas and on walls which have penetrations caused
by electrical service boxes. The drywall was only required on one side of the wall and could have
been installed on the other side that did not have the electrical panel.
Scotts tendencies have been to call us after an installation, instead of before. This is a
correct procedure if you don't have any questions about the work. The life -safety problem caused
by enclosing the area between the two buildings was a direct result of Scott's nonchalant attitude
toward the Building Department. After discussions with Scott and having read Tamla's letter, I
feel that his attitude is a reflection of hers. Her attitude can be clearly seen in her statement that
she had "not been aware that we needed the inspectors to be informed of the changes before being
started since they were the ones who made up the violation list".
Tamla has now provided us with a drainage plan that sends all of the water out into the
street. When I asked for a drainage plan I also asked how the water would be put into the system
or if french drains or surface retention would be used. I asked Scott Cafaro and Jeff Freiberg
these very questions. Scott informed me that Tamla just ignored him when he proposed the
question to her. Jeff called me back and stated that surface retention and french drains were out
of the question. The understanding that Tamla agreed to in order for us to provide her with
"conditional occupancy" is contingent on her finishing items by certain dates. Item #8 states
"Drainage system is reqired for the entire complex. The current system is inadequate and will
only become worse as more grass and landscaped areas are removed and more asphalt is added.
The owner must provide city with a drainage plan. Completion Date - 6/30/00. Drainage System
construction shaould be started as soon as possible and continued until parking lot is
reconstructed. Completion Date - 8/31/04". The drainage plan was critical to parking lot
construction.
It is evident that Tamla regards our direction as insignificant. It is my opinion that she will
say and do almost anything to keep the construction progress going. We keep bowing to her wish
for a letter here and one there that will help her get her financing. She will even spend $5000 on a
plan that does nothing for her (i.e. the parking lot is already built) and nothing for us. She will
install footings and then tear them out rather that get our opinion. I guess I am at a loss as to
how we should treat this situation. I think that the improvements to the complex are very good
for our community and I am willing to continue trying to work with Tamla to reach the end goal.
Thank you,

Dear Tamla:
This letter is a follow-up to our telephone conversation on Monday, March 15, 1999, in regards
to your request for a temporary approval to rent American Manor for summer and fall 1999 to
Ricks College single students. As I indicated on the telephone, Ricks will grant a one-time addi-
tional year of temporary approval for American Manor. This approval allows American Manor
to rent to 67 students for occupancy until April 22, 2000, at which time the temporary approval
will be concluded. No additional contracting may be done for summer or fall 2000 or any future
time periods until a final and complete approval is granted.
We are hopeful that granting a final approval for the entire American Manor complex will be
forthcoming. This would be based on the following criteria:
1. Ownership of the entire complex needs to be secured. This would include the
stacks now owned by Beneficial Mortgage, Investor's Financial, and any other
areas for which you do not have title.
2. Parking spaces must be obtained to meet the Ricks standard of .7 spaces per resi-
dent, with the space sizes, striping, and fire -safety issues also resolved and
approved in writing by the city of Rexburg.
3. Occupancy documents from the City must be obtained for all apartments within
the complex.
4. Our office will be ready to inspect each of those apartments as they are complet-
ed and as we are invited to do them. This inspection is to determine whether or
not minimum requirements have been met.
Representatives from the city of Rexburg and I have spoken several times through the last
month as Ricks has considered your request for temporary approval. It appears that the City is
also interested in an immediate dialogue with you regarding a plan for upgrading and a plan for
parking at American Manor. The plan that you sent with your last letter has been on file in our
office and at the City from the previous owner. However, my understanding is that no formal
approval for the plan has been granted.
The Housing Office will require documentation for each of the points listed prior to granting a
final approval for American Manor. As we discussed on Monday, Ricks will not extend tempo-
rary approval beyond April 22, 2000. Our office, however, is available at any reasonable time
to answer questions or to address concerns you may have regarding either the temporary or the
final approval process.
Sincerely,

that seems to be a former inspection by the City of Rexburg. Tamla explains that
she is grandfathered under the 1968 parking ordinance because there were stu-
dents in the complex ending in April 1997 and then beginning Feb 1998. She

Feb 12, 1999
Ricks College Housing Department
Rexburg, Id 83440
Dear Sharon Tuckett,
I am very anxious to receive an extension from the Rick& College Housing Department for
this coming year. Numerous inquires have been made by students and parents. Like all of
the other complexes, it is now time to advertise and send contracts for the coming year.
Concerning your "few additional questions".
A. The city has never required a parking plan from American Manor. Hence, the
city does not have a copy of documents regarding our parking plan. The parking is not
mentioned on the enclosed violation list presented to Applewood. The city has never
withheld approval because of parking. Parking has never and is not now an item of
concern for approval with the city.
I am petitioning for an EXTENSION of the temporary approval of American
Manor for student occupancy for 1999-2000. As originally agreed by both Ricks College
and the City of Rexburg, approval is being granted building by building.. With the present
limited number of approved student apartments, the parking is not an issue at this time at
American Manor.
The parking has become an issue only to Ricks College Housing. My legal counsel
is prepared to produce necessary documents to show that according to Rexburg City
Ordinance #478 passed in 1968 (which required one parking space per every 2 students
up to and including 24 students and then one parking space for each additional 3 students)
Country Cove/ Applewood/ American Manor was is compliance at the time of occupancy.
Further, he has docmnents to show student occupancy ending April of 1997( in the form of
signed contract) and commencing Feb of 1998 (in the form of signed contract). This will
agree vvith the housing department records. Hence, Hre complex was NOT out of the
single -students rental market for over a year, and the 1999 standard parking requirements
do not apply and falls under the condition known as the "Ch-andfither" clause.
In October of 1998 the fire marshal mentioned his concerns about the changes in
pavement paint striping --so we agreed, as soon as the snow melts, this striping will return
to the approved parking plan that was been in effect for 11 years. The old paint is still
visible and will be duplicated Since the old parking plan was approved and used for 11
years, and nothing has changed as to the use of the complex and/or number of students
occupying premises, by city ordinance, the parking plan is still approved.
B. 'The long-tetyn plats fGt` A net`ieati .ianor was Subtaitted to die city iii 1995.
Without it, they refused to grant approval of any of die. complex. With it, they have granted
approval to 4 of the buildings. The city is pleased with the improvements that are being
made and are eager to see the project succeed.
We are progressing as scheduled. Yes, the items to be finished by 1998 have
been completed successfully.
I will be more than happy to send another copy of this long-term plan to the city if
they so request it
C. The ownership of tracts 2 and 3 have had no changes since temporary approval
was granted last year. At die present time, rhiunerous legalities are being worked out with
MY attorney. It is for this reason that we are petitioning for an extension of the tenhporar,
approval. There are unpaid back taxes, IP s liens, and NIR, appraisals to be ordered slid
reviewed before clear title can be given to these properties These problems are being
resolved, but it will require more time and legal paper work.
Nothing has transpired in regard to M -act 2 and 3 that has changed the situation
from last year. That is, both tracts and die aparhnents thereon do not have, nor can they
obtain a city issued certificate of occupancy. Hence, no one can occupy them. They can be
used onuly for storage. There is no additional documentation needed for the status quo.
.Enclosed is a copy of the city's notification that no one can occupy tract 2 and 3.
This complies with die Rick's Housing Regulations.
If you could please review these items aid grant all extension of die approval to American
Manor as quickly as possible, I would be most appreciative. We ;would like the swine
opporfinuty as all of the other complexes in Rexburg to advertise early to fill treir
apartments with quality students.
Sincerely,

Dear Blair Mamvaring:
Enclosed in a copy of the long-term plan for American Manor that was submitted in 1998.
We are progressing as scheduled. The items to be finished by 1998 have been completed
successfully.
I am petitioning for student occupancy for 1999-2000. Ricks College Housing requires an
updated signature. Would you be so kind as to review the following and sign or initial
below.
Thank you for your time
LONG TERM PLAN FOR SAFETY REPAIRS FOR AMERICAN MANOR
LONG TERM PLAN TO CORRECT ITEMS NUMERATED ON THE SAFETY
VIOLATION LIST FROM THE CITY OF REXBURG FOR AMERICAN MANOR
DATED FEB. 2, 1996 RESUBMITTED BY TAMLA RENCHF_R ON JUNE 24, 1998.
(approximate time line for completion --each apartment will be repaired simultaneously --
repairs to the entire complex will then be accomplished)
Each item listed on die safety check list was evaluated. Moat have already been corrected.
The following is a plan of long term action to correct the items remaining.
9/1/1998 1) Install smoke detectors in every bedroom
9/1/2000 2) All gutters and leaders will connect into a 3 inch perforated pipe with
gravel as a leach field and connect into the city sewer. ?
9/1/2000 3) West of apartment complex 1-A remove existing concrete in sidewalk,
excavate to proper level, reform concrete over drainage, form around and
above, and install proper ABS pipe to eliminate tripping hazard.
9/1/1998 4) Install double layer of 5/8" fire resistant gypson board to obtain one
hour fire resistance to meet code.
9/1/2001 5) Construct 4 foot retaining wall of concrete on north side of building 1-A
5" thick for length of complex. Backfill to cover exposed foundation
footings and to raise ground level of building 1 A to such an elevation that
the bottom floor will qualify as a "basement'.
9/1/2000 6) Reroof entire complex with 30 year asphalt or fiberglass shingles, soffet
venting along with ridge roll venting, replacing corroded plywood as
needed.
9/1/1998 7) All thermostats will be examined and appropriately replaced or repaired
in the heating system to provide an adequate heating facility that will
maintain 70 degrees F.
9/1/2000 8) All windows will be replaced to meet egress code. All bedroom
windows will be replaced and meet proper required escape dimensions.
9/1/1998 9) All balcony and exterior stairs will be replaced and widened to meet
section 3303 (A) and stairtread will be extended to 11 1/2" wide and 7 1/2"
stair rise.
9/1/2000 10) All necessary exterior doors will be replaced to match interior and
exterior floor landings. All landings will be -corrected and have a niinimwn
of 48" width.
9/1/1999 11) All interior staircases will meet required headroom of 64' as listed in
section 3306. The rise of every step and the tread will meet requirements
9/1/1999 12) The floor or landing will not exceed over 1" over the threshold
doorway. The length of the downstairs landing in apartment #108 will be
extended to the required 44" before the first step outward from the door.
PARKING: (Note: This was not listed on the requirements for reapproval by the city.
However, Ricks Housing as deemed it necessary to clarify the city's position on parking.
9/1/2002 13) There will be no changes as to number of students occupying premises,
hence the complex is presently "Grandfathered" as to existing number of
parking spaces and number of students. The design, lay -out, and striping of
the parking lot will be restored to orginal approved design.
However, in the future parking is to be increased as conditions allow.
1) Manager's house to be moved and property to be paved for parking. 2)
Spaces to be rented from Carlson House. 3) When adjoining properties
(presently owned by Dr. Young) to come available, to be purchased and
paved for additional parking 4) Housing contracts to restrict number of
vehicles to be brought by students (a refimdable deposit to be sect to those
reserving aparking space.)
None of these improvements are connected with present plan to
receive approval by the city. If for the past 11 years the number of students
and the lay -out, design, and number of parking spaces have remained
unchanged, the city approval must also be unchanged.
Ricks College requires an updated signature for approval for student housing in 1999-2000

An inspection was made at American Manor by the Fire Department, Electrical Inspector,
Plumbing Inspector and myself. There were several minor deficiencies that were present. I'm
confident that Scott Caffar6would have them completed by Friday the 10'h of July. None of
them were so significant that it would preclude rental to students for the third summer term.
The following units were inspected 108, 109, 208, 209, 111, 112, 210, 211, 212, 213. If you
have any questions don't hesitate to call me.
