Council Member Wolfe: Planning & Zoning/Building · Urban Renewal Agency · Police
Council Member Wolfe reported he attended the Police Department’s Senior Staff meeting on Monday. They discussed the City’s Christmas Tree Lighting Event on December 6th. There will
be Police Officers there to assist with directing traffic. They are moving forward with the new computer software eForce that City Council approved. The Police Officers were asked to
look for street light outages as they patrol the streets. If they notice any street light outrages to report them to Public Works Director Davidson.
Council Member Wolfe said the Police Department also discussed some staffing issues that have come up with several officers not being able to work due to illness and other reasons. They
are trying to determine which course would be more feasible, to pay overtime or to use reserve officers from other agencies. The issue with using reserve officers from other agencies
is the specialized training the city has. They thought it may be more feasible to request the hire of one more reserve officer to help cover the work shifts. He said the Police Department
desired to inform City Council of the staffing issues.
Council Member Wolfe reported the Shop with a Cop program will be held on December 14th starting at 6:30 a.m. at the Tabernacle. The Police Officers will pick up the child they were
assigned to and drive them to Wal-Mart to help them shop for necessities and gifts for their family and selves. He said it’s exciting to see the police vehicles with their lights and
sirens driving through town. There are about 100 police vehicles from five different agencies from around the area that are part of the Shop with a Cop program. There are volunteer
opportunities to help with the program.
Council Member Busby asked for clarification regarding the reason for shortage in staffing at the Police Department. Council Member Wolfe said the reasons include: vacation, illness,
injuries and one officer is on administrative leave. There are about four police officers off of work for one of the reasons mentioned.
Staff Reports:
Finance: - Matt Nielson
Finance Reports
Finance Officer Nielson reported several City Council and City Staff members have been working on updating the city impact fee studies for awhile. They have updated four categories and
have completed a final draft that they reviewed yesterday. They will meet tomorrow to review the street impact fees and hopefully complete the update within a week. After completing
the impact fees final draft, the Oversight Committee will review the updates. If the updates are approved by the Oversight Committee, a public hearing will be held for a City Council
decision.
Finance Officer Nielson said he did not inclued the fund or cash balance on the Treasurer’s Expenditure Report because the city is still in the middle of closing out the prior fiscal
year. The cash balance totals would have been correct; however, the fund transfers have not been completed so that causes the respective fund balances to be off balance. The report
includes the amount spent so far in each fund. The funds should be at 8% spent for the first month of the fiscal year. He said the city has spent about $2,393,260 or 3% of the budget.
/
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Operating Expenditures in the Budget Summary Report. The operating expenditures should be at 8% spent. On an operational bases the city has spent
7%. In the Total Expenditures for all funds the city is at 3% spent.
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Revenues in the Budget Summary Revenues Report. The total operating revenues collected are at 6% of the 8%. In the net revenues over expenditures,
the city is ahead by about $120,179.
/
/
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Cash and Investment Balance Report. At the last City Council Meeting he discussed the withdrawl from the State Diversified Loan Fund. The Finance
Department withdrew four million dollars from that fund. The account had about eight million dollars, it currently has about four million dollars. The funds were deposited into the
State LGIP-City account; this is the reason why that fund has about 11 million dollars. He said he believes it was a wise decision to move the funds into the State LGIP. The returns
in the State LGIP were higher than the returns in the State Diversified Loan Fund last month.
Finance Officer Nielson said he will be meeting with Time Value Investments who are the other managed account partner that the city will be working with. He said the city may place about
three million dollars with Time Value Investments and invest one million dollars in Certificate of Deposits (CD’s). The city is limited on the number of CD’s because only $250,000 in
each financial institution is allowed to stay below the limits on the insurance.
Finance Officer Nielson said the city is investing about $29,361,281 at this time.
Council Member Busby asked which account are the funds being withdrawn from to put into the Time Value Investments and CD’s. Finance Officer Nielson replied the four million dollars
that was deposited into the State LGIP- City account will be withdrawn to put into the Time Value Investments and into CD’s.
/
Council Member Mann asked for clarification regarding the City’s 501c3 Foundation Account in the Treasurer’s Expenditure Report. Officer Nielson replied the City 501c3 is an account
the city started several years ago. The account was set up to deposit donations made to the Arts Department and Recreation Department in the form of a 501c3 donation.

under the Transportation Alternative Program. He reviewed the map indicating where the pathway will be constructed and is seeking City Council approval to enter into an agreement with
ITD.

Public Hearing 7:00 P.M.: Idaho Department of Commerce Community Development Block Grant Proposal for a Wastewater Improvement Project and Idaho Community Development Block Grant (ICDBG)
Citizen Participation Plan – Keith Davidson
Rick Miller with The Development Company explained the public hearing is a requirement by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Act (HUD) for the block grant application
they are submitting for the city’s wastewater project. If the grant is awarded the city will need to hold another public hearing. The purpose of the public hearings are so that the
public can come to ask any questions they may have regarding the project.
Mr. Miller gave a description of the project. The project is a replacement of the Syringa lift station located in the Millhollow mobile home park. This lift station has had issues with
flooding. The project they are proposing is to request a $500,000 block grant to assist in the approximate one million dollar costs to replace the existing lift station with a man hole
and move the lift station to another location. The new lift station will have about 2,000 linear feet of 15 inch and 20 inch sewer line pipe. The main reason for the project is to try
to avoid flooding. If the grant is awarded the announcement would take place in April of the year 2020 and go out to bid that summer.
Mr. Miller reiterated the grant funds are coming from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Act of 1974.
Council Member Busby asked if the city will need to match the grant funds or will the grant cover the entire costs. Mr. Miller replied the city will match the grant funds. The cost of
the project will be slightly over one million dollars and part of the costs include an estimate of $116,000 for the in-kind engineer work the city will be doing. The cash match will
be less than the half a million dollars.
Council President Smith explained the public hearing process.

Ordinance No 1219 Rezone Certain Parcels in Sky Meadows Subdivision #19-00557 from Low Density Residential 1 (LDR1) to Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2) – Alan Parkinson
City Planner Parkinson explained Aaron Robertson representing Blue Ox Development, which is the owner of the Sky Meadows Subdivision is requesting a rezone for certain parcels in the
subdivision from Low Density Residential One to Low Density Residential Two. The reason for the rezone request is due to the difficulty of selling those lots because of the lot sizes.
The developer preferred to build twin homes in those lots to create a better environment. There is a market for starter homes. City Staff has reviewed the rezone request and the Planning
and Zoning Commission is recommending City Council approval of the rezone for certain parcels in Sky Meadows Subdivision.
Council Member Walker asked about the square footage of the twin homes being proposed if the rezone passes. Mr. Robertson said the exact size has not been determined. The intent is to
maintain the restricted subdivision covenants that currently exist. The home size and types of finishes will be consistent
with what is currently built. The only difference is instead of building one house on a third acre lot there is the potential to build two homes with a shared wall; the square footage
would remain the same.
Council Member Mann asked if there are plans to change the size of the lots in the rezone request. Mr. Robertson replied they have not decided if they are going to change the size of
the lots at this time. The modifications that are anticipated will not require a change in lot size; however, because of the curvature of the property there has been discussion regarding
changes to that area. The changes would be to align the property.
Council Member Flora asked about the issue of there being no street lights in the subdivision. Mr. Robertson said they are addressing and determining the deficiency of why there are
no street lights in the subdivision. The street lights were a requirement in the original plat and where this section of the subdivision has not been built yet they will work with city
staff to make sure the street lights are installed.
Council Member Busby asked about the drainage issue one of the residents brought up at the public hearing. Mr. Robertson replied because of the drainage issues with one of the existing
homes, they will change the way they are closing the sale of the property by informing the buyer what their responsibilities and options are pertaining to storm water drainage. There
will be better communication and clarity between the buyer and seller of the lot. The buyer will be informed of what is needed to handle the drainage on their property. He said some
of the properties will require added concrete and hard surfaces. The lot owner will need to make sure they are retaining and handling the water drainage on their property. They will
also need to make sure the drainage flow is going to the correct area and not onto their neighbor’s property. The design and plans for drainage can be modified by a unit by unit bases.
There is not a one fix for all of the drainage issue because each property slopes in a different way. The developer will provide the instructions and the resources for the lot owner.
They will include the risks, rewards and expectation regarding the storm water drainage for their lot.
Council Member Busby expressed his concerns with possible flooding if the storm water drainage is not handled correctly. City Planner Parkinson said the drainage issue is being addressed
as Mr. Robertson stated. Mr. Robertson is also addressing the drainage issue with the one property in the subdivision where the drainage is running into the neighbor’s property.
Council Member Wolfe said Planning and Zoning Commissioner Kunz was not able to attend the meeting tonight to state he is opposed to the rezone request due to the street lights not being
installed. Council Member Wolfe said Commissioner Kunz recommended if the rezone is approved by City Council a condition be added that no permits will be issued until the street lights
are added to the entire subdivision.
Mr. Robertson explained they were not managing the project when it was originally constructed or approved. His group was involved financial; however, not as managers. They have taken
over the project management as of recently. The street light issue has been raised and they intend on correcting the issue. He is not aware of the reason why the street lights have
not been installed.

Council Member Wolfe moved to approve the Rezone of Certain Parcels in the Sky Meadows Subdivision #19-00557 from Low Density Residential 1 (LDR1) to Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2)
with the condition of no new building permits are issued until the street lighting has been installed; Discussion: Mr. Robertson asked for clarification regarding the area not being
allowed new building permits until the street lights are installed. Council Member Wolfe clarified the whole area that is without street lighting including the area being rezoned. Council
Member Mann asked Mr. Robertson if he has any concerns with the condition. Mr. Robertson expressed his concerns with the condition of installing the street lights. He said they can
easily add street lights to the area being rezoned before applying for building permits; however, the area that has already been developed becomes more difficult. He is unaware of how
much time it is going to take to add the street lights to the developed area and with several lots currently under contract to be built, not allow any new building permits would cause
difficulties for the development. He said given enough time they will add the street lights needed. Public Works Director Davidson explained the underground conduit and other items
needed to install the street lights. Council Member Wolfe withdrew his previous motion.
Council Member Wolfe moved to approve the Rezone of Certain Parcels in the Sky Meadows Subdivision #19-00557 from Low Density Residential 1 (LDR1) to Low Density Residential 2 (LDR2)
with the following condition: the street lights need to be installed to the entire subdivision
no later than September 2020 or a moratorium on building permits will be imposed and consider first read; Council Member Walker seconded the motion; Council President Smith asked for

Summerfield Final Plat Phase 6 Approval #18-00548 – Alan Parkinson/ Dan Larson
City Planner Parkinson explained there were delays with the original Summerfield Final Plat Phase 6 due to irrigation issues. The developer has since worked out the irrigation issues
by moving the irrigation ditch. The Planning and Zoning Commission is recommending approval of the Summerfield Final Plat Phase 6.
Council Member Flora said she had difficulties identifying where the park and club house are located on the plat map. City Planner Parkinson pointed to the park and club house on the
plat map. The construction on the club house will not begin unit spring.
Council Member Flora asked if there is a plan for a park in the subdivision. Mr. Larson replied there is going to be more than one park going to the subdivision. There was a ratio of
open space, amenities and other items given for different lot sizes and densities. He said enough of these amenities are required before anything is started. There are some of those
amenities already in place. There is open space and green space for the entire subdivision. There is a section fenced off to create a dog park for the subdivision. The required ration
of open space and green space has been maintained as the development is built. He explained the work being completed in phase 6 of the development. The club house, the swimming pool,
playground, volleyball courts and pavilion will be built during phase 6.

Discussion regarding the storm water retention areas in the development. Mr. Larson pointed out phase 7 and phase 8 on the map.
