Harter Councilman: Bruce Sutherland Bruce Casper Nile Boyle Sander Larson Councilwoman: Darlene Blackburn Also Present: Rose Bagley, City Clerk The mayor handed out a sheet with three options for the signal on 5th (Jest & Main and discussed them. (attached) (1) To use urban money which would take about two years. (2) To use secondary money, the problem with that, the county has used all their secondary money and that would take about two years. To go with 1 & 2 would take more engineering because the federal government is in- volved. (3) The state and the city would get together and sign a contract to put that in ourselves. The total cost is $63,000. The state would furnish all the material and the cement. It would cost the city $10,000. The state would put up $53,000. If we go this route, they can get it in August. The reason is they have all the material themselves. They suggest that we get the people down in Idaho Falls that have a concrete saw, to come in and saw everything out. That is included in the $10,000 price. When we get everthing done, the state would come in with their crews and put the post up and .the electricians would wire it. He suggested that we get together with the schools and the county. The only thing is it will cost us $10,000, we have saved some money with snow removal. Some of the money will be in labor. The mayor suggested to go with #3, the council agreed. We would have to give up the remodeling of .our other lights for a year or two. (After the meeting Sander Larson contacted the school, and they said they would give $2,000, when they start their new budget in July. He called Bruce Wevster byt was not able to get in touch with him yet, but was going to ask the county for $3,000.) Charles Zollinger has his shop on Center Stre^t in the middle of the block, he wants to enlarge his shop to house some of the equipment. The zoning laws won't allow him to, because he is there under the grandfather clause and they can't enlarge. He took a petition out and there is no ono against it. It will not be rased to in- crease the traffic or business. The council did not object. Bruce Sutherland men- tioned that they needed to get more names of people on Center Street. Mayor Porter said he had dug out the comprehensive plan for 1973, Dick Davis was a councilman on it and Dan Hess ~r~as representing the College, Art Porter was on the Transportation nad circulation committee. The porgected population was from 12,000 to 15,000 and -they are right there. Randy Porter and Dick Davis tyrant to go with 2nd West. The problem with it is that is raobldy lives on it. P~lost of it is outside the city. The council told the mayor to mention some of those things at rho meeting Wednesday. We also agreed with tuard when we were negotiating with him on the sewer line, to map w~iere 2nd 4Jest would go through his propert1<, Forsgren-Perkins drew a blueprint and 3 ~... f.. ~~ and he accepted it and the council accepted i:t. We have done a lot of planning. All of the .people that were here and wrote letters wanted a compromise and did not want the project to be killed. They wanted it so we could get the snow removed and a buffer strip, and we have done this. The people can go on an improvement district and widen it to 40 feet, maybe we cna get the south end but it will cost everyone on_that street two or three thousand dollars. There would be a lot of opposition in that. PJile Fullmer says that if the road is built it would divert traffic around Rexburg, so the business would be hurt. No one is going to use that street to go around Rexburg unless you live up there now. 46 feet is not a wide road. The mayor said he would be in favor of limiting heavy trucks, by only .letting them go down to 5th South. That would take care of all the farm area up there, they could go from there South to the Erikson Road. Mayor Porter told the council he had talked to Chuck Frost about and Inspector. He recommended Glen Bean, he is retired. The college uses him all the time, when they have a big project. The mayor talked to Glen and he is willing to inspect part time. Within the next month he will try of get a certificate from the state. Sander Larson said he is an easy man to work with and very accommodating. He would inspect. the bigger things like the nursing home and do the safety inspection. He would rather not do the smaller things like houses, which is okay, we can keep Nile to inspect them. We would pay him $100 a month. The mayor talked to Chuck Frost about Tom Mathews, and he thinks Tom is as good as anybody we can find. The only thing is he is too tough. Sander Larson said he ahd talked to Rex and told him that we are anxious' that he sent Gordon Tychsen to these safety schools, and to let us know which ones he is going to, possibly twice a year. He also told him that we wanted them to meet once a month to review projects that are going on in the city. Adjourned. iy1INUTES OF THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING January 7, 1987 State of Idaho) County of f~adison( City of Rexburg) A meeting of the City Council for the City of Rexburg, Madison County, held January 7, 1987, at the City Hall.

There were several people at the meeting to participate in discussion. Le Roy i~1eyer and Clyde Gillespie from the Rigby Highway Office, and Clint Kingsford. from Forsgren Perkins were at the meeting to answer any questions the people might have. The mayor said the first thing he wanted to do was to go over the phmject and explain what the city has done to plan this project, it wasn't done overnight. The street was designated on the urban route of the City of Rexburg, as a minor arterial by the comprehensive plan that was created in 1973 and expected by the city. The mayor at that was Mayor Shirley. One of the members of that committe was Dick Davis, another member was Dan Hess, and on the traffic circulation committee on the Comprehensive Plan was Art Porter. At that time they designated 2nd East as a minor arterial and 1st West and 2nd North. Since then we have had hearings and added 1
