Public Continent: Items not on the agenda; limit 3 minutes; issues may be considered for discussion on a future agenda. Please keep comments on point and respectful. Lee Barney explained last year at a work meeting, he and Public Works Director Davidson were tasked to create some alternative transportation plans. He has those preliminary plans; however, a work meeting has not been scheduled to review his or those of other community member's plans. He is wondering when a work meeting could be scheduled to review the plans. Mayor Merrill said the Councilmembers have planned for a transportation meeting after the first of the year. Public Works Director Davidson added Keller Associates completed the original study, he will contact them to determine if they are available to attend the transportation work meeting. Mr. Barney suggested community outreach before the work meeting and not in the form of letters. He wondered if volunteers could go door to door advertising an open house before the work meeting. At the open house information regarding transportation could be gathered before the actual work meeting. Mayor Merrill said the process of gathering information Mr. Lee suggested would be a repeat of what was done when the transportation plan was completed. Public Works Director Davidson said additional transportation routes were reviewed during one of the work meetings. Mr. Lee said those routes are not the same proposed routes that he and Public Works Director Davidson reviewed. Public Works Director Davidson replied no, they were not the same routes discussed at the work meeting, those routes were proposed based on development happening somewhere else; not by the Crest Haven Subdivision. Discussion regarding dates of when to schedule the transportation plan work meeting, Mayor Merrill said they will schedule the transportation work meeting on April lath. Council Member E. Erickson asked for Mr. Barney's proposed transportation plans to be emailed to him to review. Staff Reports: A. Human Resources: - Terri Hill i. Approval of Police Department Pay Schedule Policy Change Human Resources Director Hill explained she is in the process of changing the timekeeping system for the Police Department. She reviewed the current overtime compensation highlighted in red and the new overtime compensation highlighted in blue. She said the current overtime compensation in the new timekeeping system is causing confusion between the base pay and overtime pay so she contacted other municipalities, and they suggested moving to a 14-day work period and pay overtime on excess of 8o hours. There are rules that must be followed when determining overtime compensation. �nc�lu��su',.�ssiti�_C�i_i[tQ_3�:t� �Siinr_� s+rx;.h+�lf �t 1tieS F:�ti�[-k�s:�,uk�-th`� ice_-t�.L�1Cr t l.IL�45 +feri(415.,11(LL,�FsiS� Oi NQ 1i(riNS �t�t1 1-0tl3Y Yi�[f L�?'x+_ F aiyw St h as U121 �j:._..'�!{k tit73a slL"�J_.J�tJ1w}t�11L'.1+"_'�C�_i':i4'�l,L;! t('�(n ha d; �f y r-, R+iY_ O N-11rrree- n po•� M r.e•e-.7t-+re(+ f+r ..IkcK. line+! .serer dw wtxM. +�r.� - - - - _ - -—=tfrrwl!#-HR1F-}�Y-k'�.t•F-t`.:r-s�:: �1� !lbw s-N-(wr i-29derppeomd-0von!"9 baasof w"ry +xW"4Nr-+t�ttrer+ Human Resources Director Hill said she met with Chief Rhodes, and they reviewed the pros and cons of going on a 14-day work week. Chief Rhodes explained some of the cons of going on a 14-day work week. He explained that over the past So years the officers have worked four days on and four days off with 12-hour workdays. This schedule created two patrol teams so one team would work four days while the other team is off and then switch. The con is that the employees lose one day of time off with the new work period, instead of being off four days they will only be off three days. Chief Rhodes explained the pros of changing to a 14-day work period. It will hopefully eliminate the confusion between the base pay and overtime pay, making it easier to see overtime compensation in each pay period. He said with this proposed change they would move to a io-hour shift, four days a week, with three days off. There would be an overlap when both teams would work together. The advantage of the overlap would be to create better communication between both teams and schedule training where all officers receive the same training on the same day. He said another pro is that the officers would work overtime after 8o hours instead of having to work a full 12-hour shift to reach overtime hours. Council Member E. Erickson asked if the new work week would create more overtime hours. Police Chief Rhodes said he believes it will create less overtime hours because of the overlap day and when possible, he asks the officers that have overtime to try and lose it before the end of the pay period. Finance Officer Nielson explained he performed an analysis of the additional straight time pay for hours worked over 16o and not more than 171 in a 28-day period over the course of several years and found the average pay in the straight time overtime is about $48,000 a year. He said if the Police Department did not cut down on overtime the potential additional cost would be about $48,000; however, if they do manage the overtime the potential costs could be much less. Council Member C. Erickson commented on his experience in law enforcement. He believes moving to a io-hour workday is beneficial because working 12 hours decreases productivity. He believes the chief will be able to manage the overtime hours better. He is concerned about all the training that is needed for the new police officers and thinks having days when everyone is available for training will be beneficial. He is also concerned about the switch to salary for the lieutenants because they might be spending extra hours training the new officers and not be getting compensated fairly for the extra time. He would like the police chief to be able to review the wages of senior staff yearly and make adjustments as needed. Council Member C. Erickson moved to approve the Police Department Pay Schedule Policy change; Discussion: Council Member C. Erickson indicated that he would like the police chief to have the option of reviewing senior staff pay at the end of the year to make sure they are being compensated fairly with the new salary change; Council Member Johnson seconded the motion; Mayor Merrill asked for a vote: Those voting aye Council Member Johnson Council Member Chambers Council Member C.

Review Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Calendar Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Calendar. He indicated that he would like to change the public hearing date from the first meeting in July to the second meeting in July to give them a little more time with the budget reviews. He asked if anyone had any concerns about this change. Mayor Merrill has a family vacation scheduled at that time, but it should be okay because most of the work is already done by then and President Walker can lead the public hearing.

April loth works for everyone so they will plan on doing the Council Drive -around on April loth. Finance Officer Nielson reviewed some increases to the budget to be aware of. He indicated that the current trending numbers for the Cost -of -Living Adjustment are looking to be 3.2%. PERSI reduced the general rate last year and it will go back up in July 2024 so there will be an increase to both the employee and employer side as well as the public safety side. The health increase for this year will be 12%. Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the dates for budget reviews. He asked the council to email him the dates that they will not be able to meet. He also reviewed the dates for the work meeting in June. Council Member Johnson would like more time for the work meeting, so they don't feel rushed.

Public Testimony in favor of the proposal (5-minute limit): Bill Riggins lives on Hillview Drive, which is on LID 53. His concern is that some properties are not on the list, and some are. He feels like this might be piece -milling it. He would like it all to be fixed at once. Bonnie Riggins lives on Hillview Drive. She commented that the road is in very poor shape. Some of the residents have trouble getting into their driveways because the road is so bad. She agrees with her husband that they need to do more than just four homes. 2 Kristin Williams lives on Hillview Drive. She does not understand why, a few years back, they did not do the whole street. It's not just the four houses that need improvements, it's the whole street. Public Testimony neutral to the proposal (5-minute limit): NONE Public Testimony opposed to the proposal (5-minute limit): NONE Mayor Merrill closed the public hearing. Mayor Merrill said he remembers past LID attempts on this street when many of the residents were against it. He asked Director Davidson if there were other residents on Hillview Drive that would like to be included in the LID. Director Davidson said they have not asked the other homeowners if they want to be included. Public Works Director Davidson clarified that the whole street will be re -done, just not the curb, gutter and sidewalks on all the homes. If there are people who would like to be included, they can be added to the LID. Mr. Biggins indicated that it was a misunderstanding. They did not realize that the whole street would be done. Discussion about how the homes were decided and allowing others to opt in to have their homes done as well. Council Member C. Erickson moved to approve Ordinance No 1309 Creation of Local Improvement District 53 and consider first read; Council Member Chambers seconded the motion; Mayor Merrill asked for a vote: Those voting aye Those voting nay Council Member Johnson none Council Member Chambers Council Member C.

Director Davidson explained that the insurance on the plane is expensive. City Clerk Lovejoy explained that this plane is also difficult to fly and it has an open cockpit so it's not used as much. The Legacy Flight Museum board is looking at getting some trainers that are easier to train on and fly. The minimum bid for the truck is $1o,000 and for the plane is $150,000. Council Member Johnson moved to approve the surplus of the Legacy Flight Museum "Deuce and Half' 2 1/2 ton truck and Boeing Stearman; Council Member Reeser seconded the motion; Mayor Merrill asked for a vote: Those voting aye Council Member Johnson Council Member Chambers Council Member C. Erickson Council Member E. Erickson Council Member Reeser Council President Walker The motion carried. 4. Discuss Pickleball Court Options Those voting nay none Finance Officer Nielson presented some additional options for the proposed Pickleball Courts. He went over the budget for the courts. There is $370,000 in the budget right now. He showed the planned layout of the courts and proposed adding a cover over the first four courts. Fli I Option to Cover Pickleball Courts in FY 2025 Court size 20' Width x 44' Length Court area ideal size 36' Width x 66' Length Advantages -Year-Round Pickle Ball Play -No need to add Outdoor Lights on 4 Courts • Projected Outdoor Light Savings $3S,000 -No need to add Fencing around and between 4 Courts • Projected Fence Savings $25,000 (Cost was $18,300 in 2017 for 4 courts) •Potential savings from being covered vs. exposed to the elements -Future Revenue Stream • Monthly Membership Options Open Play Options Projected Revenue Stream Minimum $30,000 plus Finance Officer Nielson indicated that tournaments could be played on the new courts, especially if they are nice courts. They could also charge to use the covered courts, producing a revenue stream. He reviewed the fabric tension buildings. You can add fabric tension buildings after the courts are built. He showed some examples of fabric tension buildings. He reviewed the features and costs of the building and indicated that all -in costs plus contingencies would be close to $400,000. Covered Structure Potential Budget FY 2024 Budget $400,000 Would need to bid out when we bid out the 4 courts and consider options Potential Savings by Covering Courts $66,000 (No Fencing or Outdoor Lights) Funding Sources: $60,000 Carryover from Savings on 4 Courts • $160,000 Parks Impact Fund • $180,000 General Fund $400,000 Total Budget Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the options. Options To Consider Option 1— Build Out 4 Outdoor Courts Designed to accommodate a potential covered structure several years down the road - Would likely need to add lighting and fencing this summer Option 2 — Bid out both the 4 Courts Designed to accommodate a covered structure and the covered structure now and plan to budget to cover the structure in October 2024 Option 3 — Move Forward with the concept of just outdoor pickle ball covets and build the 4 courts this year and consider more courts down the road as funds are made available Council Member Johnson thinks that the covered courts will be too hot in the summer and that people will not want to pay to use the courts when they can use the uncovered courts for free. Mayor Merrill agrees that it will get very hot. There are some options to help with that. Council Member Johnson doesn't think charging people would work because you would need an employee there to take the money. Officer Nielson indicated that they would add an electronic system where people would scan their fob, like Anytime Fitness, to get in. They would also have cameras all over. Council Member E. Erickson pointed out that it would be nice to build double the courts; however, he does think that the covered courts would get used a lot during the winter and cooler months. He can't decide if it's better to have 8 outdoor courts or 4 covered courts. Council Member Johnson would like to get residents' feedback. They can put it on the Engage Rexburg page and talk to the pickleball community to get their input. Mayor Merrill suggested moving forward with the four courts and working on getting feedback about the cover before it's time to add the fencing and lighting. They could put it out to bid and see what the bids come in at. 7 Council Member C. Erickson is concerned about people wanting to park in the Medical Center's parking lot, which will be right next to the courts. It will be difficult to keep people from parking there. He is in favor of moving forward with the four courts, getting input from the public and seeing what the bids come in at. Mayor's Business: Mayor Merrill announced that the city has been awarded the TAP grant for one million dollars to continue the pedestrian path along the river behind Albertsons and build a bridge over the river to connect with the existing paths. Mayor Merrill said he has been to Boise a couple of times in the past three weeks. He has met with legislators and discussed legislation that is coming down the pipe. Some of them are good and some not so good. He is not happy with the changes proposed for Urban Renewal, so he is putting information together to pass on to legislators. He urged everyone to pay attention to what legislation is coming up and voice their opinions. He testified on behalf of Senator Cook's mobile device bill that would automatically turn on and block pornography on the phones of minors in Idaho. A. Ratify Ryan Orme as member of Legacy Flight Museum Board Mayor Merrill said Ryan is a pilot. He owns A-1 Windshield and has expressed an interest in serving on the board.
