Jay Flukinger was at the meeting to discuss the parking problem at
Harmony House. He was short on parking and the council had given him
until June 1st to get his parking into compliance. Mr Flukinger said
they were 7 parking spots short. He said he had kept a tally during
the winter of the cars parked in his parking lot at various times
during the day and night. He said there was always double figures in
vacant parking places. He requested that the city allow him to
landscape the balance of property in front of the building. He said he
had made another offer on the Montoya property but he felt they were
asking too much for the house. The mayor ask if he had been able to
get any parking places from Mrs Clark across the street. He had talked
to her, but she did not want to give up any parking places. The
council discussed the parking along the street in front of the
apartments. Nyle Fullmer said his understanding at the beginning the
Montoya property had been purchased or would be purchased for parking.
That is the way the original plan was presented. After construction
started, the question came up that the Montoya property had not been
purchased and the parking problem came up. Nyle questioned the number
of cars parked in the parking lot. He said he came home late at night
past that apartment house and he questioned if there was available
spots. He told Mr Flukinger that we made the ordinance and he knew
what was required before he started building. Montoya have complained
to Nyle of the way Mr Flukinger had presented the sale of the property
to them. When Mr Flukinger had a petition passed to get a zone change
for his new apartments, Neal Brown, property owner, across the street
had signed the petition. Yet, when Mr Brown had a petition passed for
a variance to build his apartment house Mr Flukinger had signed "no" on
the petition. This was discussed further. Nyle said we need to live
by the ordinance.
Glen Pond said we need to address (1) the point that Nyle had brought
up, we pass the ordinance regulating parking and we granted a variance
for the school year. He by his count indicated that he has ample
parking. We need to address if we want to give him an extension of
that variance or if we want to enforce the ordinance at this time. The
ordinance states that there will be 10 percent landscaping in the
parking lot. Bruce Sutherland said he did not see any problem with
putting the asphalt in rather than the green strip. He did not think
that the green strip in that small of area would be that critical. The
Montoya acts as a buffer and doesn't make it that visible to the
street. Brad Liljenquist said if he puts the landscaping in he is in
violation of the ordinance, and if he does not get more parking he is
in violation of the ordinance.
RE: COMPLIANCE WITH THE ORDINANCE
Glen Pond said we need to enforce the ordinance. Bruce Sutherland told
him he had to be in compliance with the ordinance, if you need to lease
spots or buy property to do this. Glen Pond made a motion to give Jay
Flukinger until August 1st to be in compliance with the ordinance,
seconded by Darlene Blackburn. All Aye.
RE: CANCER DRIVE BASKETBALL GAME
Terry Castle representing the American Cancer Society was at the
meeting to invite two members of the City Council to come Saturday at
the kick off of the Cancer Drive and shoot basketballs against the
Sugar City Council. The city that wins the contest will win a
basketball. Richard Horner and Glen Pond volunteered.

RE: UPPER VALLEY FRIENDSHIP CLUB WOULD LIKE FREE UTILITIES
Doyle Otteson with Upper Valley Friendship Club at 359 South 5th West,
which is a non profit organization wants free utilities. They are
buying the old church. They will have meetings for Alcohol Anonymous,
Battered Wives and Drug Rehabilitation in the building. The council
discussed it. Richard Horner suggested that we hook them up with the
United Way and let them pay the bill. The council felt that would be a
good idea to pursue that alternative.

RE: STEVE CLARK APARTMENTS
The mayor told the council we had letter from John J Harper, Harper -
Leavitt Engineering Inc, with a report on his inspection of the Steve
Clark apartments. (copy attached) This letter explains the minor
problems and the major problems. It is recommended that the owner have
an Engineer or Architect licensed in the State of Idaho prepare an
analysis of vertical and horizontal loads and the means to resist them
including analysis of the roof, floor and wall diaphragm, roof trusses
and window headers. The building should then be brought up to the
standard recommendation by the analysis.
The mayor gave a copy of the letter to Mr Clark and told him he would
have to comply with the recommendations before he can proceed. He said
he would do what he needed to do. Glen Pond stated that there is
another problem, he has a three story structure in a R2 zone, which is
not allowed. The basement has to be 80% underground. He will also
have to meet the parking regulation. The council reviewed the building
permit application which makes it clear that the building will be
within the zoning regulations. We have a complaint from the neighbor
that he is outside the zoning ordinance. He will need to bring in the
fill to make a basement, or he will not be allowed to continue. A
motion was made by Glen Pond to give it to the legal council to
determine weather we have any liability as to where the structure is at
this point. If our legal council thinks we are on solid ground then we
continue the stop order until he can bring it into the zoning
requirements and until the structural requirements are met, seconded by
Bruce Sutherland. All Aye. All voting Aye, Farrell Young abstained.
The clerk advised him that to abstain he would need to leave the room,
he then changed his vote to no.

company handles our unemployment for the city.
RE: BENCHES AROUND THE CITY
Bellows Enterprizes want permission to put benchs around the city with
advertising. They will put as many as we want. For the fee of $1.00
the city would lease them. The council suggested that we check with
some of the cities that are using them.
RE: PARKING LOT AT PORTER PARK
The mayor told the council we have a petition from the property owners
by Porter Park about the parking lot. We will keep it on file until we
decide on putting in the parking lot.

Dear Mr. Bean,
At your request I met you on Wednesday, April 11,1990 and
inspected the framing and footings of a three story apartment
building apparently owned by a Mr.Steve Clark.
There were some minor problems noted including.
1. The west footing is undermined in one place.
2. Some of the wall bottom plates do not fit the
bolt locations.
3. The "Oriented Strand Board" sheathing is not
nailed as often as the minimum amounts shown in
the U.B.C. Also some panel joists were not blocked.
4. The floor sheathing and roof sheathing are not blocked
at all joints and the nailing is less than minimum.
5. The east wall that is adjacent to the existing building
wall does not have any exterior sheathing and therefore
will not have any lateral strength unless the plywood
or oriented strand board is nailed on the inside
under the sheetrock.
These items are all quite easily correctable.
Two rather major items were observed.
1. The window headers supporting two floors and roof
or one floor and roof appear to be under size.
2. The roof trusses have been site made and the joints
appear to be seriously deficient to carry the
expected loads.

I recommend that the owner have an Engineer or Architect
licensed in the State of Idaho prepare an analysis of vertical
and horizontal loads and the means to resist them including
analysis of roof, floor and wall diaphragm, roof trusses
and window headers. The building should then be brought
up to the standard recommended by that analysis.
Thank you for the opportunity to be of service.
Sincerely,
HARPER-LEAVITT ENGINEERING,INC.
