RE: OUTDOOR DANCE AT THE POD'S PARKING LOT I I Gene Statham representing POD's was at the meeting to request having outdoor dances in their parking lot. They wanted to know what they would have to do to be able to hold outdoor dances. They would not allow any drinking of beer outside and would keep it under control. They would like to have one a week or one a month. They would have a tape and a disc jockey and would like to hold it until 11:00 PM or 12 Midnight. The mayor told them they would have to have a petition taken around the neighborhood to get their okay because it is right next to a residential neighborhood.

A motion was made by Glen Pond and seconded by Darlene Blackburn to disapprove the dance to be held out- doors, based on the control factor using the city police on off hours. Those Voting Aye: Jim Morris Nile Boyle Glen Pond Darlene 'Blackburn Abstaining: Morgan Garner 5..~ RE: COMPLAINTS ON PAST OUTDOOR DANCES The mayor explained that we have had too many complaints in the past on outdoor dances and in looking up the minutes of previous councils we found that there had been a resolution passed against outdoor dances. RE: WATER RESOURCE BOARD MEETING The mayor told the council that last Friday night there was a meeting in Pocatello for the Water Resource Board, and he went down there to present our case for a grant to replace 5 sewer interceptor lines to the city. They had approved the grant for this year and because of some other areas that they thought needed it worse they posponed arse for one year. They did have our application set up for April 1985 and now it it April 1986. The mayor had presented some more evidence the fact that the Department of Health had forced us to allow Rexburg Heights to hook onto our system and it goes through one of those lines that need to be replaced. The mayor was sure we would have a good chance of getting that work started. He told the council that Rexburg Heights had had low water pressure and the mayor, DeLynn and the engineers had been up there to check it out and found that there is a problem with a pressure regulator valve. We will have to fix it because it doesn't open up like it should. RE: PUBLIC HEARING TO CHANGE ZONING 8:00 PM a Public Hearing was held to change the zoning for property owned by Dr. Craig Heiner at 236 East Main to Limited Commercial so he could put a Medical Building on the property. The lot is zoned R1 at the present time. The Planning Board have recommended that it be changes to Limited Commercial with the same re- gulations as Professional Plaza and that the lot be part of the Professional Plaza. Everyone on that street have been contacted and signed a petition and they have also been sent a letter. The mayor showed the council the plat. He would be re- quired to have the same set backs as for residential property. Dr. Smith was at the meeting and ask questions. No one was at the meeting to protest. A motion was made by Morgan Garner and seconded by Jim Morris to approve the zone change from R1 to Limited Commercial subject to the restrictions of Professional Plaza and to comply with the Residential set backs.

They thanked the council for the help with the signs. They said it had helped the speed somewhat going down hill, and between Linden and Maple Ave. They requested having a policeman up there once in a while to give tickets. They asked the mayor about the speed bumps. He said he had ordered in- formation on them but would ckeck further. He asked if they could have the children at play sign and the speed limit sign on the same post. The mayor said he would ckeck on it. They asked about a third sign going up hill on Linden and Birch. The council felt that it would not be a good idea because of the slick roads in the winter. The council told them they would have the police patrol that street and issue tickets. RE: STREET REPAIR PROBLEMS Morgan Garner reported on street repair problems. He and the mayor and Farrell had gone up on the hill and checked the streets. It looked like we will have to replace some driveways, curbs and approaches and will have to take out some and start over. On Shoshone there is 5 sections that is bad and by the Stake Center there is several that have bad areas, there is one bad one on Cresthaven. The mayor suggested that we find out the cost on how much a foot it will cost and work out a formula and have the property owners pay so much and the city will pay so much. We need to get the repairs done this year. A motion was made by Nile Boyle and seconded by Morgan Garner to pay the bills.
