Presentation: FLOOD 50 Event – Jed Platt
Cultural Arts Director Platt said he is excited to share an event that has been nearly 50 years in the
making. Next year they will commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Teton Dam Flood. Many
residents are familiar with the flood or were affected by it or have family history that reflects the event.
They consider the flood an event that helped to shape the communities affected by it and they think it is
worth commemorating.
Cultural Arts Director Platt explained as they considered how to best commemorate the flood.
Their thought was not to have a monument of the disaster, they wanted to concentrate and focus on the
service and how the community came together to work on the recovery after the flood.
Cultural Arts Director Platt gave a presentation of the plans they are working on to commemorate
the Teton Dam Flood Event. He said he has included some general flood facts in the presentation.
2
Cultural Arts Director Platt said they have produced a new documentary called Flood of Memories
and an accompanying book will be released as part of Flood 5o. They have worked with committee
representatives from surrounding communities and fully realize that the flood was not a Rexburg
specific event; however, the city has become the stewards of its history. They are looking for how to best
commemorate the anniversary of the Teton Dam Flood and include all the surrounding communities
that were affected. Their vision to reminisce and commemorate this event with each community
affected is a threefold mission to remember, to serve and to connect. There are several ways that they
came up with how to best tell the story through events happening the first week of June 2026.
Cultural Arts Director Platt said they have planned walking tours of downtown Rexburg,
identifying evidence of the flood that still exists today. The City of Sugar City will also be hosting
walking tours.
Cultural Arts Director Platt said they have collaborated with BYU-Idaho Students to develop an
app that allows people to look at pictures of what the city looked like during the flood and what the city
looks like today. There will be some other interactive activities going on during the commemoration
event. A big part of the event will be the ribbon cutting at the dam site. There are some improvements
underway at the site with new signage and a walking trail. A VIP event is planned for the actual June 5th
Anniversary, they will be hosting bus tours that will follow the flood route. They are compiling an audio
recording of narratives from people’s flood experiences that will be part of the bus tour experience. The
audio recording will explain the different sites along the way, and they will stop along the route to visit
those sites.
Cultural Arts Director Platt said at the end of the Flood 50 event, they will make a download of the
audio narratives of the people’s flood experiences and have them available on the museum’s website for
families to be able to take the flood route road trip at another time. Over the last five years, they have
hosted an event called Flood of Memories at the Romance Theater on the anniversary date of the flood
and showed one of the flood films, after which they open some time for people to reminisce and share
stories. Every year they hear new stories that have never been shared before. As people reminisce, they
record them sharing their stories for their family history. They are planning on having exhibits and
displays throughout the downtown. One event that was memorable for people at the time of the flood
3
was a gathering at Rick's College where Spencer W. Kimball gave a message of hope. They would like to
culminate with a guest speaker on campus in a fireside event at the end of the week.
Cultural Arts Director Platt continued to explain the different events that will take place in the first
week of June 2026. They are planning a golf tournament, the traditional Teton Dam Marathon,
followed by a party at Smith Park and a preparedness fair. There will be river floats and a motorcycle
rally starting at the Teton Dam site and end at the American Falls site where the water was contained.
Cultural Arts Director Platt said they are looking for ways for people to be involved, hands on and
express their experience. The museum has a lot of samples of original flood mud, and they have been
boxing up the mud; however, the mud is crumbling. They have invited inspired artists to create works of
art using the mud and display their art pieces at the Flood 50 event. There are a few concepts for a
historic photo exhibit.
Cultural Arts Director Platt said they are planning on showing the three flood films on a rotating
basis at the Romance Theater and a live theater production based on the flood stories at the Romance
Theater. He added another centerpiece of Flood 50 is an interactive exhibit, which will be part of the
downtown walking tour.
Cultural Arts Director Platt mentioned service is a big part of this event so their desire is when
people look back 50 years from now, they can say they were part of an epic event. At the time of the
flood, the communities showed up for each other and helped each other, that is one reason they want an
epic service focused event. They are going to invite people to complete 50 activities of service or 50
hours of service in a broader way. The people participating in the service activities can log their service
hours at the museum website.
4
Cultural Arts Director Platt said they have invited Kirby Heyborne, who has a television program
called Making Good, where he travels the country and focuses on different service projects to help with
the service campaign. Director Platt reviewed the schedule of the events and asked the City Council for
their thoughts and any input.
Cultural Arts Director Platt also mentioned they anticipate the Flood 50 event will bring a lot of
commerce to Rexburg and surrounding areas by hosting the largest volunteer reunion. They are
advertising beyond Rexburg because after the flood, relief efforts came from surrounding states. Their
advertising will say something like “come back to Rexburg and see what you helped preserve.” The
marathon and all the other activities will also help draw people to the event. They will begin advertising
this June so people can start making plans to attend the event.
Public Comment: Items not on the agenda; limit of 3 minutes; issues may be considered for
discussion on a future agenda. Please keep comments on point and respectful.
William Clements read the John Denver rendition of the poem The Ambulance Down in the
Valley Joseph Malins (1895)
Twas a dangerous cliff, as they freely confessed,
Though to walk near its crest was so pleasant,
But over its terrible edge there had slipped,
A duke and full many a peasant.
So the people said something would have to be done,
But their projects did not at all tally.
Some said, “Put a fence around the edge of the cliff,”
Some, “An ambulance down in the valley.”
But the cry for the ambulance carried the day,
For it spread through the neighboring city,
A fence may be useful or not, it is true,
But each heart became moved with pity,
For those who slipped over that dangerous cliff;
And the dwellers on highway and alley
Gave pounds and gave pence not to put up a fence,
But an ambulance down in the valley.
Then an old sage remarked, “it’s a marvel to me
That people give far more attention
To repairing the results than to stopping the cause,
When they’d much better aim at prevention.
“Let us stop at its source all this hurt,” cried he.
“Come, neighbors and friends, let us rally.
If the cliff we will fence, we might almost dispense
With the ambulance down in the valley.
Mr. Clements said for those of you who are having a hard time connecting this poem with LIDs, he
clarified some of the connections. The Cliff is the LID, the fall is an unexpected bill from the city, the
ambulance is the city bond and loans on the property owner and the excessive strategic shifting of costs
to the unlucky city citizens. The fence is using the city funds properly and using other state legislation
more effectively, so there is no excessive tax burden on city citizens.
Isaiah Stanfield said he is against LIDs and does not believe the citizens of Rexburg need to pay for
the beautification projects of the city. If the city can appropriate funds correctly, they will not have to
charge the citizens a bill that they are not expecting or that the citizens desire to pay. A good example of
the failure of LIDs is Park Street. The road is too narrow, and he said he believes there is a lot of damage
to the residents’ homes there because of the LID project. It was difficult to recuperate for those
residents. He said it is a bad idea to continue with LIDs.
Isaiah Stanfield added one of the items in the pervious City Council meeting was the City Council and
Mayor’s salary raises. He said he does not think it is appropriate for the Mayor and City Council to be
charging the citizens for city projects, they should be using tax money to pay for those projects.
Items from Council:
A. Committees: MEPI, Cultural Arts, Grants, School Board, MUSIC, MYA B, Emergency Services Board,
Beautification, Trails/Parks & Recreation, Urban Renewal, Airport, Golf Board, ADA Oversight Board,
Historical Preservation Committee, and Legacy Flight Museum
5
Council Member Reeser reported the Legacy Flight Museum Board met last week. They discussed
the goals of the museum and the plans for next year. They are debating whether to continue having or
not having the Air Show and how often.
Council Member Chambers reported this morning he attended a meeting with Congressman
Simpson and one of the topics that was addressed was the grant situation from the federal government
to the City of Rexburg. City Grant Writer/Coordinator Flanary did a great job researching the amount of
grant funds the federal government has terminated from the city. The amount of federal grant funds
that have been terminated are 1.16 million dollars and there are 2.6 million dollars on hold.
Congressman Simpson informed them there is no chance of getting back the terminated grants;
however, the grants that are on hold, he is going to try to get those grants back. One of the grants was
for the two-million-dollar reconnecting communities, this grant was for the study that would look at
crossing Highway 20. The study would include looking at three different crossing options over or under
Hwy 20 and drawing up plans for the preferred options.
Council Member Chambers said it is difficult for a city of our size to fund two-million-dollar studies
and obtain plans prepared, not to mention the utilities such as sewer and water. Many of these projects
are beyond the city’s reach without federal grants to help.
Council Member Chambers reported the Cultural Arts Department is hosting the Nathan Pacheco
concert at the Tabernacle, it is an Easter celebration and tickets are still available. There is a link to
Nathan Pacheco’s website on the city’s website to purchase tickets. On April 29th there is a free
Tabernacle Orchestra concert at the Romance Theater.
Council Member Chambers reported that the Urban Renewal Board met to discuss some of their
projects that are in jeopardy in the downtown area due to extreme construction costs. They will be
meeting with the developers to determine if there is any way to salvage some of those redevelopment
projects that included mixed-use, commercial, residential, and retail office space. They are meeting with
the developers tomorrow to try and figure out their next steps.
Council Member Johnson asked if there is anything the City Council could do regarding the federal
grants that were placed on hold. Council Member Chambers replied, besides sending the grant report to
Congressman Simpson there isn’t anything else the City Council could do. He was informed by
Congressman Simpson’s staff assistant that she would investigate why the grants were place on hold
and get back to the city.
Council Member Johnson said all the City Council members received an email from the City of
Idaho Falls representative asking for help because their funding was cut as well. As for the Trails, Parks,
and Recreation Committee, they will be meeting soon.
Council Member C. Erickson reported the Golf Board met to discuss the new golf season this year,
it started out well. The golf courses faired well through the winter, the greens look good, and the courses
are packed with patrons. The golf season started out great.
Council Member C. Erickson reported the Madison School District has about four and a half weeks
left of the school year. Their end of the school year schedule is packed with a lot of spring sports. There
is a jazz concert on May 1st, Choir Concert on May 7th at 7:30 P.M. and there is an Orchestra Concert on
May 13th at 7:00 P.M… The Madison High School Graduation Ceremony is on May 22nd at the BYU-I
Center starting at 6:00 p.m. They will also be hosting the DARE Graduation on April 28th at the High
School starting at 7:00 P.M.
Council Member E. Erickson reported he has been out of town and has not met with the Parks and
Recreation Departments. He said it is important to note that all the city services are being affected by
the termination of the federal grants. The park and recreation are a part of those services being affect ed.
The city is going to need to tighten the budget because they have relied on federal money since COVID.
B. Other Reports:
Staff Reports:
A. Finance: – Matt Nielson
1. Financial Reports
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Treasurer’s Expenditure Report. The city is halfway through
the fiscal year. He pointed out the column labeled “spent” on the report. The General Fund is sitting at
about 47%, which is a good percentage because it is an operational fund and does not have a lot of
capital in that fund. The General Fund percentage is an indicator of how the city is trending in terms of
the expenses, which are a little lower than the 50%.
6
Finance Officer Nielson reported he is preparing a six month forecast for the upcoming budget
meetings. There are a few departments that are forcasted to be a little over budget. He said he has
contacted these departments and asked them to tighten their budget so that they come in under budget
by the end of the fiscal year. The Sanitation Fund is a little high at 58% because of the shop building.
The over all spent is at about 27.6%.
Finance Officer Nielson explained he forecast worst case scenario as if that department is going to
buy everything that is in the budget; however, history indicates the departments do not always purchase
everything budgeted. The departments that are going to have the most difficult time staying within
budget are police and fire. These two departments are trending higher.
Council Member C. Erickson re-emphasized what Council Member E. Erickson said regarding
tightening up the city budget and being more conservative.
Finance Officer Nielson reviewed the Cash and Investment report. He said he is trying to reinvest in
the two-to-three-year period to lock in those higher interest rate returns; however, it is becoming more
difficult particularly in water and sewer because there are a lot of capital projects over the next few
years. He added he is having to look at the city’s liquidity needs and having to time those investments so
that money is available for those big projects.
7
Finance Officer Nielson mentioned Real Estate Investments (Streets) is going to close at the end of
this month in fact he is going to sign for that investment tomorrow. This investment was the one over
by Second East also known as the Squires property. In the books the investment is shown at $327,334,
it is actually going to close at about $780,000. The Real Estate Investments (Streets) funds will come
off the investment report and go back to the cash to basically help streets which is a significant amount
of funds for the street fund.
B. Public Works: – Keith Davidson
1. Surplus Burley Wheel Kit in the Recreation Department - Action Item
Public Works Director Davidson reported that the Recreation Department is wanting to surplus
the burley wheel kit. The Burley stroller trailers are used out at the golf course for skiing, there is a ski
kit that goes on the stroller; therefore, the wheel kits are not needed.
Council Member C. Erickson moved to approve the Surplus of the Burley Wheel Kit;
Council Member Johnson seconded the motion; Mayor Merrill asked for a vote:

2. Set public hearing on May 21, 2025, to surplus the Old Pump House Property located at 195 E
1st S - Action Item
Public Works Director Davidson recommended setting a public hearing on May 21, 2025, to
surplus the property located at 195 E 1st S, the old well house. The well house was being utilized as a city
maintenance building.
Mayor Merrill explained the building is old with crumbling mortars and quite a bit of work that needs
to be done to repair the building.

3. Bid Approval for Local Improvement District 54 (LID 54) - Action Item
Public Works Director Davidson reviewed the three bids received for Local Improvement District
54 (LID 54).
Public Works Director Davidson explained the bids received were lower than the city engineer’s
estimates; however, the miscellaneous properties included in LID 54 came in higher because those
properties are in a unique location. He said he has contacted the miscellaneous property owners to let
them know and hopefully they can find a different contractor that would charge less to complete the
work. As for the rest of the properties included in LID 54, there is a significant reduction in those costs.
The sidewalk costs came in lower than the amounts the city engineers originally estimated.
Council Member Johnson said she is thankful that the bids came in lower than the estimated costs;
however, she is going to vote no to LIDs for the reasons she has previously stated.
Council Member Reeser questioned the difference between the miscellaneous properties and the
other properties included in LID 54. Public Works Director Davidson replied the miscellaneous
properties are properties that changed hands and do not have sidewalks. Director Davidson said the
property owners are notified with a fair amount of time that they need to install sidewalks on their
property. When the property owners do not comply with installing sidewalks then they are included in
an LID.
Public Works Director Davidson mentioned the realtors are to explain the property does not have
a sidewalk and city code requires a sidewalk be installed so the buyer can negotiate the price of the
home to include the costs of the sidewalk. The miscellaneous properties included in LID 54 are spread
throughout the community; therefore, the contractor is not obtaining the scale of the project which
causes the costs to be higher.
Discussion regarding the amount of sidewalk needed in a section of Andrew’s Place. Public Works
Director Davidson said he contacted the property owner and discussed the possibility of postponing the
installation of the sidewalk to include on a future LID.
9
Council Member C. Erickson asked Public Works Director Davidson if other property owners
included in LID 54 have contacted him since the last City Council meeting. Public Works Director
Davidson replied, a couple of property owners have contacted him since the last City Council Meeting.
The son of Mary Flud, whose property is included in LID 54, contacted him about a letter that stated
they would not have to install curb and gutter on the north and south side of their property; however,
they completed a lot of research and determined it was only reflecting the north and south side of 7th
South for the curb and gutter. The letter did not reflect anything about the west side of their property.
Council Member Johnson wondered if piecemealing the miscellaneous properties included in LID
54 is the most effective way of installing sidewalk because it is expensive. Public Works Director
Davidson explained that including miscellaneous properties in LIDs is the only recourse the city can use
to ensure property owners install sidewalks on their properties. The miscellaneous property on an LID
is not the cheapest option; however, unless the City Council is not going to require sidewalks or the
maintenance of the sidewalks until the city reconstructs the road then an LID is the only other option.
Council Member C. Erickson said there is a section of property along Pioneer Road without
sidewalks and there are a lot of kids walking on that side of the road. He would prefer to have large
sections of property without sidewalks to be included in an LID instead of only completing smaller
sections throughout the city. Public Works Director Davidson replied, the City Council has the option to
authorize city staff to include those large sections of property without sidewalks on an LID.
Mayor Merrill mentioned a study group is being formed to investigate alternatives to LIDs whether
those alternatives would include bond measures. He said he was made aware the City of Idaho Falls
sent their residents a letter regarding the replacement of 40 feet of curb and gutter and the property
owner’s costs would be $3,500. The City of Idaho Falls may not have LIDs; however, the property
owner still pays for the improvements in front of their property and a financing mechanism is not
available.
Mayor Merrill said the City Council has passed several items that are in the property owners’ favor
including: the LID financing option with a lowered interest rate and the city’s full participation in the
costs of replacing curb and gutter. The bids also came in lower than the estimated costs.
Public Works Director Davidson expressed his thoughts about the study group Mayor Merrill is
bringing together to investigate an LID alternative. He said he would give the group background
information about the first City Council Meeting and subsequential meetings pertaining to LIDs. He
would then help educate the group where the street funds come from and work through the budget. A
City Council Member’s representation on the committee would be beneficial.
Council Member Chambers moved to approve the low bid of $3,297,102.00 from HK
Contractors for Local Improvement District 54 (LID 54); Council Member C. Erickson
seconded the motion; Mayor Merrill asked for a vote:
