HomeMy Public PortalAbout08-Dept Reports Combined AugustMonthly Department Report – City Manager Memo To: City Council From: Anette Spickard, City Manager Date: September 5, 2019 Re: Monthly Department Report – August 2019 1. City Attorney Selection Process: I provided staff support for the Council’s selection process for the new City Attorney contract which included the interview and reference check process. Council selected White Peterson and I am now in the process of negotiating a new contract with White Peterson to present to Council at the September 26 regular meeting. 2. Downtown Sidewalk Maintenance Program Development: I worked with Parks, Golf, Public Works, Finance, Community Development and our Communications Manager to further refine a proposal for the City to provide sidewalk maintenance service to the downtown area. This included gathering feedback from a public workshop held on August 7th at the Golf Course that was well attended. Since that workshop, staff has continued to receive public input on a potential program, and we have worked to refine the program and the funding options for Council’s consideration at the September 12th meeting. 3. Library Expansion: I attended two work sessions sponsored by the Library Board. The first was a joint meeting of the Library Board, the Construction Manager/General Contractor team, and the building expansion committee to review initial concepts for the design of the Library. The second was a joint meeting of all the volunteer groups that are working on the Library expansion to ensure good communication and understanding of the project as it progresses toward a City Council discussion this Winter. 4. Post Annexation Joint Wastewater Advisory Group (JWAG) Meeting: At the time of writing this memo, the JWAG meeting has been scheduled for September 10, 2019. I look forward to reporting back to Council on the results of this meeting. 5. Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) Board Tour of McCall: At the time of writing this memo, the tour for the state board of ITD has been scheduled for September 11, 2019. The tour will include several stops to highlight the community’s interest in State investment in State 1 of 46 Monthly Department Report – City Manager Highway 55 through McCall (3rd Street and West Lake Street) to address safety and traffic concerns through a coordinated planning effort. 6. McCall Community Center: In follow up to the August 22nd Council meeting, I am scheduled to meet the new Director and tour the facility on September 9. I will also begin attending the Center’s Board meetings to reestablish a relationship and communication channel. 7. Communications Program Update: Communications has been working with The Valley County Census Team. A comprehensive marketing plan has been developed to encourage participation in McCall with a focus in September on our second homeowners who can choose McCall if they live here at least 50% of their year. City of McCall launched the first phase of the City Process Evaluation (CPE). The goal of CPE stated simply, is to evaluate current processes and recognize within them, those that can be streamlined for efficiency, consistency, and better use of already existing technology. A team made up of active workforce from various departments, levels, and varying specialties was formed at the request of the City Manager to guide the program and see it through to some identifiable outcomes. As a member of the CPE team, we have seen great success in our first pass in process evaluations in all departments. After rating, ranking and recognizing attainable changes, the team will now create individual charters for each process identifying milestones along the way. The CPE team consists of Erin Greaves - Communications Manager, Chris Curtin – Information Systems Manager, Garrett Mapp – GIS Analyst, Jodi Weaver- Receptionist, and Kathy Ikier – Deputy City Treasurer. The initiative to have McCall recognized as a Bike Friendly Community by Bike Friendly America started out of Community & Economic Development and is now on the Communications desk for the community engagement portion of the process. In August, we started a social media staff introduction program where we feature an employee and how they help the public. The goal is to give the public tools to know who to talk to get help at City Hall. Lastly, an attachment regarding feedback about the 2019 Lakeside Liberty Fest is included for your review. 2 of 46 MEMORANDUM LAKE SIDE LIBERTY FEST 2019 The 2019 Lakeside Liberty Fest was organized and promoted by staff members Erin Greaves and Stefanie Bork. The Festival had more vendors than ever before. More than 25 businesses and non-profits took part in the three-day events. Staff welcomed many returning participants such as Julie Whitescarver of Shanti, a fan favorite, hosting free family yoga on the sundial and KDZY and STARR from Inspirational Radio streaming live from Legacy Park. Some newcomers had a wonderful time raising money for their groups such as Roots Preschool that hosted the bounce house and the Little League Program who claimed they did great in their fundraising efforts. Everyone was there representing our theme “Idaho’s Outdoor Playground” our recent trademarked slogan. We were pleased to welcome such variety this year from massages by Tom’s Mobile Massage and product samples by Apothespa to free Zimms Hot Spring t-shirt giveaways by the Nez Perz Tribe. We had boats and cars displayed, and even SUP rentals right by the beach presented by Mountain Sports Exchange. Our food representation was also excellent this year offering kettle corn, donuts, chorizo dogs, waffles, burritos and more. We continue to strive to complement the area restaurant businesses by providing crowd support and not competition. Our special events such as the Volleyball Tournament and the Movie Under the Stars went off without a hitch offered another layer of fun and activity surrounding the holiday weekend. Volleyball, organized by Tara Woods hosted a six team tournament of four to six players and saw a large crowd of spectators while the movie night had more than 200 viewers of all ages attend. McCall Chamber of Commerce hosted a tent giving out their ever-popular event guides that highlighted 10 days of fun surrounding Independence Day. We are so grateful for their additions in helping promote the best in McCall and hosting our amazing awing fireworks show. TO: City Council FROM: Erin Greaves, Communications Manager DATE: September 2019 RE: Lakeside Liberty Fest 2019/2020 ___________________________________________________________________________________ _ 3 of 46 The City of McCall Welcome Tent was hosted by members of staff and City Council and it was met by hundreds through the day as we have away flags, tattoos, sunglasses and popcorn balls all donated by Cheap Thrills! Cheap Thrills giveaways are 4 years running and the donation ads such a great level of joy and interaction between us and 4th of July event Guests. 2019 WRITTEN VENDO R COMMENTS Our experience at the 2019 event was wonderful, from the excellent communication from Stephanie to the fun-loving crowds, we really enjoyed being a part of this event. It is a great fit for our menu, especially the Hot Dogs, Fruit Smoothies, Espresso Bar and Basque Chorizos! We live in McCall and appreciate this opportunity to be a part of next year's even BIGGER event! -Txo-Txo “We wanted to take a moment to thank all of our fireworks sponsors that made our signature show possible. Our staff was down at the City of McCall's Lakeside Liberty Fest. There we met people from all over the country and world who came to our beautiful corner of Idaho to celebrate the holiday. We loved the event and thank the City for all your great efforts to make it a success! They worked so hard. Thanks to all who helped contribute to the fun and to our professional and emergency services who kept us safe (McCall Parks & Rec, McCall PD, McCall Fire, and more!).” -McCall Chamber of Commerce Thank you so much for inviting us to this event this year. It was such a beautiful day! I wanted to take some time to give some feedback as a vendor at it. I think the City would be best served by having vendor booths scattered all around town. Down by the lake is pretty but there are many businesses on our end of town too that could benefit from the city spreading out these types of events. It would bring awareness to new businesses in town, take the focus off of the curve area and allow us business owners to share in the wealth of business the tourists bring to town. We would participate again if the city came up with a plan that spread out the celebration throughout town. The same is true for winter carnival. I'm not even sure this is possible but without driving traffic to our actual store, this event isn't a financial success for us. We sure wished it would have been! Our building has 3 brand new businesses in it and not one customer came to any of them this past weekend because everything was so focused down on the other end of town. It sure would be awesome to be able to celebrate these types of events throughout the city. I hope you take this as constructive and not negative because I want all business owners here in town to succeed and if we change things up, and recognize as a city there is opportunity on both ends of this strip, we could make some really cool things happen for the city and for the tourists! -Apothespa 4 of 46 LAKESIDE LIBERTY FEST 2020 Excited to report we already have more than 10 vendors signed up for Lakeside Liberty Fest 2020 and many additional verbal commitments. Tentative schedule for 2020: • Friday July 3rd, Road closure and Food Vendor Set-up • Friday July 3rd, Movie Night with concessions • Saturday July 4th, booths & vendors “Idaho’s outdoor playground” Recreating and relaxing in McCall • Yoga, Volleyball tournament, Jet flyover, Music, (possible Mutt Strut/ doggie red, white & blue walk) • Sunday July 5th, vendors and or booths 2 019 Vendor Map 5 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Airport Memo To: City Council From: Richard M.

Weather: Finally got some hot weather this month. Not as hot as in the past, but good grass growing weather. 2. Staff: During the month of August, there were three full time employees and 11 seasonal bodies the end of the month with four part timers. There is also one volunteer helping. It is working out to be about 8 full time seasonal which is under where we need to be. We had two more people come on the first of the month. One was a returning staff person who has been great help. The situation is challenging but making the best of it. 3. Greens: The greens went through August in great shape. The new mowers and rollers improved the playability quality. Staff had to baby a couple of greens, but the areas are hanging in there. Staff received a lot of complements. 4. Tournaments: August was tournament central. The Course housed the 2 Lady Best Ball, the Pro/AM, Club Championship and Chapman. All of these were two-day tournaments. 5. Mosquitos: Staff fogged the course once in August. The dry weather is helpful. 6. Equipment Maintenance: The new equipment is great. There were a couple of updates and warranty issues, but the dealer has been quick to take care of them. I never realized how much better the advancement in technology was until we got to use the new equipment. 22 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Golf Course 7. Restaurant: The restaurant has been busy and suffered some turnover. They have gone to a limited menu to compensate. Banyans has had several events in the tent area with a few yet to go. They plan on scheduling more next year. 8. Revenue: Year to date, the revenue is running behind because of a cool October last fall and a late May opening but by the end of August, the numbers were able to recover quite a bit. Still running about $6,000 behind last year but ahead of the 5-year average and budget. 9. Irrigation: Irrigation has been running well with minimal problems or leaks. With everything grown back in, staff has been able to go to an alternate day irrigation schedule which helps keep the course dryer. 23 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Information Systems Memo To: City Council From: Chris Curtin, Information Sys tems Manager CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager Date: 9/4/19 Re: Monthly Department Report – August 2019 1. Network Infrastructure, Projects and Services: Fiber installation from City Hall to Sansom Trail is complete. It is anticipated to be finish the install to the Water Treatment Plant in the next 2 weeks. Next step is to pull fiber in the conduit and terminate. Staff are looking at ways to improve the delivery of audio and video in Legion Hall to make it easier to present for both Council and Citizenry to hear what is going on during proceedings. Rollout of the Docusign secure electronic signature application will happen in September. 2. Broadband Task Force: The State of Idaho has formed a Broadband Task Force to explore internet connectivity solutions statewide. They are considering proposals for both rural as well as metropolitan areas. The InfoSys Manager was asked to present an overview of our project and its challenges at the last meeting. Additionally, the Task Force is asking if the City of McCall would like to hold one of the co-Chair positions of the Rural branch of the Task Force. They will meet an additional 2-3 times before making recommendations. 3. Software Applications and Services: The City has been upgraded to the new Microsoft Teams phone platform. This links together Office 365 with the phone application. The City Process Evaluation (CPE) has completed the first round of interviews with all the Departments. The findings have been presented to the City Manager and anticipate moving forward with some of the forms and process automation as we head into Fall. 24 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Library Memo To: City Council From: Meg Lojek, Library Director CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager Date: 9/3/2019 Re: Monthly Department Report – August 2019 1.

The Next Chapter Campaign: The August 28 meeting at Golf Course Pavilion was a successful gathering of City Staff, Library staff, Library Ambassadors, fundraising consultants, Library Board of Trustees, Library Foundation, Friends of the Library, and the Building Expansion Committee. It was a positive chance to share 25 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Library timelines and future events, including what each group will be working on as we move forward with this project.

In addition to this display we will have Amy Canfield (Professor of history at Lewis-Clark State College) host a lecture on the topic: “There is nothing complicated about ordinary equality: The Fight for Women’s Suffrage”. The fight for women to achieve voting rights is a long history with various setbacks and achievements.

Fall & Winter Rec Programs & Registrations: Fall Programs include: • Fall Soccer (September 10-26) Gold Glove Park • No School Fun Days o October 4- Mountain Roots Orchard & Zim’s Hot Springs o November 8, December 30 and January 2- Cascade Rec Center pool & The Roxy • Tots and Tykes- 2 sessions (January and March) • Youth Basketball (November 4- December 14) • Adult Pickleball (TBD) • Adult Indoor Soccer (TBD) • Youth Volleyball (March 31- April 23) 2. Summer Rec Programs Wrap Up: Summer has been nothing but go-go-go and we are happy to offer such fun programs for the kids. Below is a brief update on all our programs and numbers: Tennis: Session 2 and 3, with a new instructor from Nampa, went great. Staff collected feedback from parents about their child’s experience; most would have liked more racket time and less coaching from the instructor. The Department was very pleased with Coach Lee’s performance and will gladly host him again next summer. Wee Soccer: Wow what a season! Our best yet, with over 100 kids participating. Pizza, fruit and vegetables were served to players, coaches and families after the final game. Always a fun time. T-ball: Better season than last year, with 38 kids registered. Pizza, fruit and vegetables were served to players, coaches and families after the final game. Always a fun time. Youth Athletic Training: This was a successful program, pulling in an average of 8 youth each session. The department partnered with Ponderosa State Park running strength drills on the grass and beach at the Visitor Center. 31 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Parks & Recreation Traveling Playground: The public loved seeing the slip-n-slide set up at Art Roberts throughout the summer. Local families and out-of-town visitors alike played for hours. Staff is needed to monitor line and safety. Mountain Bike Camp: Staff wrapped up the final week of Mountain Bike Camp with participants at Jug Mountain Ranch. Sessions are always popular and the first to fill up. Adult Co-Ed Softball League: The Adult League Tournament week was August 12-14; with all 6 teams playing double headers, eating hotdogs, chips and fruit (provided and prepared by department staff for free). USA Idaho Softball certified umpires were present for all games. The winning team, Team 6 (sponsored by McCall Dirt Works) took away the trophy. The City Community & Economic Development team came in second place with the team Brown’s Mountain Market taking third. 3. Special Events: Movie by the Lake August 3rd and 31st August 3rd community members enjoyed the film “Dennis the Menace” with an attendance of 100-150 people at Legacy Park including Recreation staff Tara Woods and Stefanie Bork. August 31st “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” was shown by popular vote of 64% vs. Avengers Endgame at 36% on social media. 200-250 people attended the showing at Legacy Park and wrapped up our series of Movies by the Lake for Summer 2019. McCall Ball 11 teams signed up to play in this year’s annual Rotary Club fund raiser. Club president and event organizer Craig Vroom is not sure the event will continue in the future but was happy with the turnout. ReMax 1 won first place, second place went to Chuckleberries, and third place went to the AWeSOMe Sliders. 4. Parks Overview and Staffing: Recreation Supervisor Tara Woods relied heavily on help from department staff during the first few weeks of August, as the recreation aide returned to school. Following a crazy summer, Tara will be out the last week of August enjoying a well-earned vacation with family. Tyler Padgett, the department’s latest full-time employee, will be helping maintain Gold Glove fields throughout the ball season and assisting with facility reservations and collaborating parks maintenance to coincide with reservations. Ms. Wood is securing program instructors for tennis and soccer camps; and will be relying on volunteers for wee soccer and t-ball. Umpires will be hired for youth, adult and tournament softball programs. Seasonal staffing for Parks is better than it has been in three years. Seasonal staff have hit the ground running and have been a huge help with general maintenance, the unexpected, and project completions. New implements purchased through the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) process have significantly reduced the amount of man hours associated with various maintenance tasks and day to day summer operations. Parks staff assisted in the Upper Payette Cooperative Weed Management (UPCWMA) Program again this year. The first co-op work day was in Lowman, followed by a day at Sage Hen out of Smiths Ferry, and Cascade in early July and two days in McCall in mid-July. The July UPCWMA spray days went great. There was an amazing turnout at the McCall spray day and treated over 18 acres of noxious weeds 32 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Parks & Recreation within city limits. Focus areas treated included; water treatment plant, Payette Lakes District Sewer Lagoons, airport and airport approaches, Cemetery, Frisbee Golf Course, Industrial Loop area, Fox Ridge right of ways, and others. 5. Waterways Committee – Valley County Waterways Ordinance Update: County waterways committee motioned to send their revised work on the waterway’s ordinance to the County Commissioners during the September 03 Waterways meeting. They did not take public comment during this meeting. 6. Capital Projects & Maintenance: Riverfront Park – DEQ 319 Work: Work along the river bank was reviewed by Valley Soil and Water’s contract engineer and his comments where all positive and the project is proving to be successful. Staff will have timed freed up in August-September to continue revegetation work along the bank and to cleanup all lose ends. Revegetation Project at Riverfront Park: Parks staff have been working to establish native grasses and the trees planted during the fall and spring. The cool first half of summer helped these efforts and with supplemental irrigation things are starting to look good. Continued work throughout the fall will further these efforts. Gold Glove Park Improvements: Contractor completed the ADA improvements around the restroom in early May. Boulder Creek Landscape has installed the irrigation system and rock boarders, and staff finished up with planting materials. Wooley Boardwalk Wetland Mitigation Work: Staff was able to get into the wetland and cultivate areas to plant pollinator species this fall. We are working on a grant opportunity to assist with interpretive panels and will follow up with the Army Corps of Engineers to ensure our obligations are met before the close of the calendar year. Waterfront Improvements: The area north of Mile High Marina continues to move forward and staff is committed to wrapping up the efforts with Idaho Department of Lands to obtain encroachment permits this winter. 7. Miscellaneous: Parks staff have conducted two “Pull Together Fridays”. The program has been a great success so far and we expect more great turnouts. So far there has been 250+ gallons distributed and around 40-50 participants that have worked with the County and City staff to treat numerous private properties. Staff has been extremely busy with regular maintenance as town has had increased use throughout the summer. As things calm down with the start of school, staff will transition into capital projects and deferred punch list maintenance items. At this time, staff will move to tackle and close out punch lists associated with ongoing projects such as Riverfront Park, Rotary Park (East End) Wooley Boardwalk (Interpretive), Gold Glove Park, Brown Park entrance and stair repairs. Coordinated projects with Idaho Fish & Game: Staff will meet with Idaho Fish and Game in early September to discuss partnerships and project opportunities on the lake and the North Fork of the Payette. Our primary area of focus will be river access opportunities on the North Fork of the Payette – including River Front Park. 33 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Parks & Recreation 34 of 46 Monthly Department Report – Parks & Recreation 35 of 46 Monthly Department Report - Police Memo To: City Council From: Justin Williams, Police Chief CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager Date: 9/6/2019 Re: Monthly Department Report – August 2019 1.

Development Engineering Reviews: Review coordination of land use applications with the City Planner, and engineering review of construction plans including Payette Lakes Recreational Water & Sewer District (PLRWSD) Headworks Building Project, Broken Ridge Commons, Thompson Place, McCall RV Resort Phase 2, St. Luke’s Hospital, May Hardware, McCall Valley Storage Condos and numerous projects for individual residential parcels. 2. Downtown Core Reconstruction: Phase 1B: Sunroc has been working on both the north and south half. Multiple contractor related setbacks have delayed progress on the south half. Additional coordination on the north (with Timbercrest Condos to remove deteriorating log columns) has added to the workload. Our construction management team has been working with Sunroc to identify ways to bring the project back on schedule.
