5:00 P.M. Joint Planning & Zoning City Council Work Meeting – Comprehensive Plan Map
Roll Call of Planning and Zoning Commissioners: Roll Call.
Present: Chairman Rory Kunz, Greg Blacker, Vince Haley, Kristi Anderson, David Pulsipher, Todd
Marx, Sally Smith, Aaron Richards, Jim Lawrence.
Absent: John Bowen, Randall Kempton.
Items for Consideration:
Comprehensive Plan Map change – Boundaries have been modified to follow parcel lines.
This meeting is being held in preparation for a public hearing. Alan said we have sat down together
as a group to decide on the areas for the Comprehensive Plan Map. Staff was going to wait until the
Comprehensive Plan was ready in its entirety. Due to the applications coming to the City, the
Comprehensive Plan Map affects their proposals. The group is together to indicate if any changes
need to be made. The map has been drawn to follow the parcel lines.
The north side of town was viewed. Industrial is shown for the Basic American property.
Commercial is along N 2nd E up around Wal-Mart, the Hegsted and Harris properties. The north
exit was identified. A recent change in this area was the Be ehive rezone to Community Business
Center (CBC). Moran View Rd. was identifed on the map. Just south of W Moran View Rd, a Plat
was recently completed to build residential in Moran View Estates. A manufactured home park and
a few homes are showing as Industrial. This land should be included in the Low to Medium
Residential. This change will allow the development of the recent plat and will continue a residential
allowed use for these lots, currently with homes on them. These parcels all front W Moran View R d
and to the West of them is Open Space. The Open Space area is an area where there is a floodplain.
East of these parcels is Commercial. The area is showing as Industrial for the Basic American
property. The spread of the waste water on Basic Americans’ land creates a buffer from the
proposed residential. The next step for Basic American is to annex into the City. Alan asked Mayor
Jerry Merrill how this affects the City’s wastewater. Mayor answered as long as the plant can land
apply, the City would prefer them to continue. Otherwise, there would be a big surge on the city’s
treatment plant. Alan said the nitrate levels in the soil could be another determining factor. Too
high of nitrate levels could affect the water table. This is the reason Basic American ’s wells are
monitored for each of their pivots. Aaron Richards agrees with the change, due to Basic
American’s fields working as a buffer between the Industrial plant and the residential in this area,
creating a stair-step of uses. Alan said the recent investment by Basic American in this plant
communicates the longevity of the business. This land is in the City’s Impact Area northwest of the
city.
Rory asked, what if Industrial keeps shrinking, where is the Industrial going to go? What happens if
the airport moves? Will the airport land stay Industrial? Alan answered, if the airport moves, the
land will probably stay as Light Industrial where the airport hangers are. The Rexburg Municipal
Golf Course has to stay or the city has to pay to move it. Airport funds were used to build the
Rexburg Municipal Golf Course. The only Heavy Industrial in our city area is Basic American.
Sally asked, didn’t we just change the Leatham property to Industrial? We did. Tawnya talked to

Bron on the phone and told him what th e group was planning for the Comprehensive Plan Map to
the east of him and the west of his parcel (4 W Moody). He decided he would want a Commercial
designation. His parcel is currently zoned Light Industrial, so he would need a rezone to a
commercial zone, but the Comprehensive Plan would be set up to match his request. Alan
continued, in response to Rory. It is a challenge for the City, because we are limited on our Light
and Heavy Industry areas. Heavy Industry is almost impossible to get into this area, because we
don’t have the natural gas flow to service the Heavy Industry. His understanding is a major upgrade
on the pipeline would be needed clear to Pocatello.
Tisha asked if all of the people have been contacted to see what designation they would wan t for
their land. Only those lots recently rezoned or have completed a Comprehensive Plan Map change
in the last five years were reviewed. Those parcels, which could see a potential change, were
contacted. Alan said when the group is finished with the map, there will be a citywide posting of
the changes and the community will be notified, allowing them to come in and speak at the public
hearing. The whole community will not receive a written notice in the mail, because there is such a
great number of people effected in the City and the Impact Area.
Sally said the decrease in industrial along the railroad track is a problem. Alan stated our business
parks are just about full; we are running out of places for the business parks to expand. The
northeast area was looked at next. Alan said around Porter’s, there is Light Industrial. Light
Industrial moves north where Centennial Grain, Johnson Precast, Cedar Pointe are, and Sun Glow
just put in a huge expansion along N Yellowstone Hwy in Sugar City. A rail spur co uld be put in to
service this area. Valley Ag and the Seed Cutting Place and Wilcox to the south are along the
railroad on the south side of town. Basic American uses very little rail. Few people are using rail
right now.
North of the Teton Lakes Golf Course is showing as Low to Moderate Density. In this area,
the zones are Rural Residential 1 (RR1) and Rural Residential 2 (RR2). Should the designation be
changed to Rural? Rural includes TAG, RR1, and RR2. If we go Low to Medium Density, this
would allow up to 20 units/acre. Rural makes mores sense further away from town. A comment
was made around the high school the density needs to be greater, instead of out at Pine Brook. In
Pine Brook, the lots along the highway could be a greater density. Jordan said we may run into the
same conflicts we see with The Meadows. Vince said access is not great to those lots along the
highway corridor. People, who are living in Pine Brook are thinking they are living out in the
country. ½ acre is the minimum for Rural. Water and sewer is limited in this area. The Cove and
Pine Brook subdivisions in this area have covenants which do not allow multi-family. With a low to
moderate density residential, a P.U.D is possible as well. Next to the commercial, you would want
higher density. Possible use the highway as a divider was discussed. The group determined to use N
5th W as the dividing line between the Rural and Low to Moderate Residential designations instead
of the highway.
Housing along N 12th W west of the Teton Lakes Golf Course is showing as Open Space. This area
is all residential and we are changing land to the west to Rural. Homes in this area possibly could
be Rural. Floodplain is an issue in this area. When a house is in the floodplain, the City is not the
only one who is restricting building there. Homes that front W 1000 N should go to Rural. FEMA
is in the process of rewriting our floodplain and they are telling us the area will be much larger than
it currently is showing.
Jordan clarified Rory’s comment about density around Madison High School. Rory said the
map is currently showing less density around Madison High School, but he believes there should be
greater density in this area. The only applications in this area of town are Sterling Medical and Berry
Oil. Summerfield has commitments on most of their currently platted lots. Tawnya talked to
3
Summerfield earlier in the day and they were finalizing submission of plat applications. Alan said
Ball Ventures owns the land for Summerfield and they are in partnersh ip with Kartchner Homes.
The extent of the Summerfield P.U.D. was discussed, currently to the west, which is the boundary
for the city limits. All of the townhomes are permitted; 114 of them. 30 homes are under
construction. Alan has been told no foundatio ns begin until the papers have been signed to sell
ownership. West of the High School and south currently showing Rural is proposed to go to Low
to Moderate Residential. This would allow a maximum of MDR2, which is 20 units/acre. Tisha
confirmed this is only the case if the governing bodies approve this zoning. W 1000 S, W 7th S , the
north border of the Madison school district property, would be the northern border of the Low to
Moderate. Three parcels directly west of the school district property and goin g south will be
included; the southern boundary is N of W 2000 S. Rainbow Lake and the adjacent property to the
north came in in the last few years for a rezone to commercial.
The southeast side of the city was looked at next, west of the University land.
McDonald’s and Cresthaven subdivision were located. Rural is showing
outside the boundaries of the city in this area, except along S Yellowstone
Highway. This area is heavily developing into subdivisions. The
designation is showing Low to Moderate Residential. Alan does not believe we
will see high density in this area. The location of the East Parkway Corridor was shown on the map.
A couple of possible routes are shown in the plan; one to follow our sewer line instead of along the
city boundary line. Right now a Transportation Study is underway for the entire city.
A moderate to high density area was shown near E 7th N. This area was
designated due to applications that have been submitted and approved by the
city. Keep in mind a large park is being built on the former Barney
property. Centennial Townhomes is 99 homes west of the church. An
application for rezone around the church has been submitted. Yellowstone
Heights is in front of Kenneth Square. A bridge to connect the East
Parkway Corridor to E 7th N will be built out in the next seven to ten years. Bron Leatham is
building 4-plexes just south of Lorene Street. There have been inquiries about the Grover property
just to the north of him.
Northeast of the City is currently showing Low to Moderate. South of
Moody and east of N 9th E south down to E 9th N out to the Impact Area
boundaries should go to Rural. Development in this area is greater than
10 years out. This change will keep people from stepping out in this area
to develop at a higher-density. The Low to Moderate will be a buffer
between the Commercial and the Rural. The sewer for the City
services the church on E 7th N and this is as far as the line goes. N 9th E
is a continuing north to south boundary following the city limit line on the
same side of the city on the south and extending it up to the north.
The Planning & Zoning department researched all of the zoning and Comprehensive Plan changes
in the last 5 years and matched the request to the proposed zoning map or they contacted them
individually.
The group has been sent a link for the map and changes will show up for that link by tomorrow
afternoon. Group members are asked to respond to let Staff know if they agree with the map
changes.
Mixed Use – Discussion about proposed changes to the Development Code chapter for the
Mixed Use zone. Staff has rewritten the Mixed Use zone. The Mixed Use will come before the
group with a required commercial component on March 4th. Tawnya will send out the Mixed Use
draft the following day, so the Commissioners can begin reviewing for their next meeting. Also, a
hearing will be held to request a rezone.

at the Middle School when parents pick up and drop off their children before and after school.
D. Council Member Johnson: Trails · Beautification · Rexburg Free Clinic Board

Beautification Committee will meet next week. They are planning a Eagle Park Community Clean-up. The
date for the clean-up is not official; however, they are considering having it in the month of April. She said

Council Member Wolfe reported the Airport Board has not met. The Golf Board met; however, he was
unable to attend the meeting. He was informed the Golf Board discussed the need for the handicap ramp
and the expense of the new deck at the club house. The deck rebuilt and expansion cost are quite high. They
decided to postpone the building of the new deck and continue with building the handicap ramp. The
handicap ramp will be built to fit into the deck once it is built.
Council Member Wolfe reported the possibility of adding disk golf equipment at the golf course. There
were comments made by some of the Golf Board Members against adding disk golf at the golf course due
to safety concerns. They also discussed hosting night golf tournaments as a way to increase revenue. The
golf course is in need of additional golf carts; however, having the budget to purchase the golf carts may be
an issue. One of the options to raise money for the carts is to allow business owners to advertise their
business on the golf carts for a fee.
Council Member Wolfe said there was an incident this week with a police officer involved shooting. He
reached out to both of the officer’s invoved in the shooting on behalf of the City Council Membe rs. He

Staff Reports:
A. Finance: - Matt Nielson
1. Finance Report
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Budget Expenditures Summary Report. The Arts Department is at
51% because a budget adjustment is needed for the project that carried into the new fiscal year.
6
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Revenues Budget Summary Report. The Covid-19 Grants have
been received and deposited into the bank. The city also received it’s first payment of about 2.4 million
dollars in property taxes.
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Cash and investments Report. The rates continue to drop in the
LGIP and State Diversified Bond Fund.
7
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Treasurer’s Expeniture Report. Currently, in the Wastewater
Reserves there is about six million dollars; however, the expantion of the sewer line to Sugar City is going to
cost about four million dollars. He said it doesn’t muc h to use up the funds in the reserves with projects.
There is also an infrastructure study being completed at the wastewater plant which indicates the use of the
Capital Reserves in the next five years.
Council Member Flora asked about the High 5 Grant funds. She said she was under the impression the
grant had expired. Finance Officer Nielson replied the Blue Cross Foundation gave an extension on the
grant funds. Mayor Merrill said the Blue Cross Foundation representative has contacted the city about
organizing a focus group to report on some of the items the city has completed with the grant funds. There
is a possibility more grants funds could be available. The available funds in the High 5 Grant have been set
aside for a capital project. Council Member Wolfe asked if the High 5 Grant could be used to pay for the
baseball/softball quad. The grants funds should not be used for additional studies. Mayor Merrill said
additional discussion would be needed to determine how to appropriately use the grant funds.
2. Nature Park Equipment/Quad Donation Budget Adjustment Discussion
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Budget Adjustment for the Parks (Construction Fund) in the
amount of $20,000 from the General Fund contingency. Council Member Flora said the conting ency
amount would pay for the soft fall, dig out, installation of the swings and replacement of the two broken
toys. Council Member Mann said once the amount of funds left in contingency are used, there will not be
additional funds added to contingency unt il the next fiscal year.
8
Council Member Johnson questioned if the new park equipment is the reason disk golf is being displaced
at Nature Park. Council Member Flora explained the park equipment purchased by the CHC Grant is not
the reason disk golf is being displaced. The future plans to add a large play-ground equipment that will cause
the displacement of disk golf. The Recreation Committee is looking for a future location options for disk
golf for when it is displaced.
Council President Busby also expressed concerns with contingency being as low as it is and only being
into the fiscal year by 33%. Finance Officer Nielson said there is a cut off date for budget adjustments
which is typically in the month of June.
Council Member Wolfe asked if the money donation collected for the baseball quad will be put back into
contingency since the balance to complete the baseball quad came out of contingency. Finance Officer
Nielson explained any money collected from donation for the baseball quad will be used to p ay down the
fund balance. Council Member Johnson said she was under the impression the money collected from
donations would be put back into the Parks Impact Fund and General Fund. Finance Officer Nielson said
amount of funds transferred from the Parks Imp act Fund and General Fund was transferred into the
Consturction Fund which became carryover for fiscal year 2021. The carryover plus an additional $400,000
will be used to complete the baseball quad. If there were over $400,000 collected in donations then those
funds would be put back into the Parks Impact Fund and General Fund.
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Budget Adjustment for the General Fund for fiscal year 2021.
Council Member Johnson moved to approve the Budget Adjustment for the Parks (Construction
Fund) the Nature Park Equipment and Budget Adjustment for the General Fund for the Covid -19

B. Public Works: - Keith Davidson
1. Wastewater Treatment Plant Oxidation Ditch Mixer Bid Acceptance
Public Works Director Davidson said the low bid for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Oxidation Ditch
was received from a company city staff is not familiar with or has not worked with in the past. The
company’s bid came in at half of the cost as the other bids. He said city staff is doing t heir due diligence in
determining the reason why the bid came in so low. Once more information is received regarding the
company and bid amount a recommendation for acceptence will be before City Council.
9
Public Works Director Davidson said the Wasterwater Treatment Planning Study is near completion.
Once the study is complete and the Department of Enviornmental Quality approves the study it will
be presented to City Council for consideration. He said some of the items on the study include
improvements, upgrades, and future capacity.
Council Member Walker commended the City Street Department on a job well done with snow
removal. Mayor Merrill said the number of potholes in the streets continues to be an issue. As soon
as a pothole is filled, the fill doesn’t last long due to moisture getting into the fill material. Mayor
Merrill said the best solutions to avoid hitting a pothole are to go around the potholes, slower speed
and do not follow the vehicle infront to close to allow enough time to maneuver around the
potholes.
Council President Busby mentioned the number of cars parked on the street overnight causing
problems for the snow plows. He understands city staff is going to meet regarding the issue and he
would prefer City Council to be informed of how city staff plans to address the overnight street
parking issues. There is a city ordinance prohibiting overnight parking between the hours of 2:00
a.m. and 7:00 a.m.. He belives the ordinance is not being enforced.
Mayor’s Report:
Mayor Merrill reported the city has seen a lot of interest in commercial ventures from different
investors. Some of that commercial interest is one of the reasons there are changes to the
Development Code and zoning. The Planning and Zoning Department is trying to keep infront of
the possible demands in commercial property. He said he will be out of town for a week beginning
tomorrow.
