Memo
To: City Council
From: Anette Spickard, City Manager
Date: May 2, 2019
Re: Monthly Department Report – May 2019
1.FY 20 Budget Preparation Process Underway:
Linda Stokes, Treasurer, and I are working through the budget preparation process and have conducted
our first round of departmental budget reviews using the parameters given to us by Council at your May
24 budget workshop. Next steps are for us to finalize revenue forecasts and resources available for
operations and determine resources available for the Capital Improvement Plan. The Council’s next
budget workshop is scheduled for July 26th.
2.Employee Recognition:
I am pleased to announce that the Chamber of Commerce awarded the Larraine Gardner Hawes
Distinguished Service Award to Kurt Wolf at their spring membership breakfast. This award recognizes
a community member who goes above and beyond to serve the community through partnership and
collaboration. Chamber President Gary Thompson spoke of Kurt as an example of servant-leadership
during his remarks and I couldn’t agree more.
3.Joint Finance and Appropriations Committee of Idaho Legislature Visit:
On May 17, the full membership of the state’s Joint Finance and Appropriations Committee visited
McCall. The legislators toured several sites representing new investment in the McCall area such as the
expansion of the Salmon River Brewery, the hospital expansion, and the downtown core reconstruction
project. I was able to give them a brief presentation on the effectiveness of the tools provided to us by the
legislature such as the Local Option Tax authority and Urban Renewal. The Chamber of Commerce and
the West Central Mountains Economic Development Council presented the results they can achieve with
funds they received from the Department of Commerce. By all accounts the Committee members enjoyed
the visit and learned a lot from seeing the projects in person.
4.High Speed Internet Conference:
On May 17, I attended this panel discussion moderated by Next Century Cities, a non-profit technical
assistance organization based in Washington, DC that promotes and supports the extension of high speed
internet in rural areas. Attendees from a broad range of backgrounds, both public and private sector,

attended. Topics included the Ammon, Idaho model of providing an open internet platform as well as the
challenges we face to address the “middle mile” connection of our area to internet hubs in Boise. It was a
great discussion that has generated momentum for the municipal fiber project here in McCall.
5.Governor’s Office Meeting Regarding State and City Priorities:
The Governor has established an office for intergovernmental relations to build working partnerships with
cities and other jurisdictions throughout the state. The Mayor and I met with his representative to discuss
our City’s goals and priority areas. Topics discussed included our interest in Highway 55 improvements
and a plan to eventually “trade” for Deinhard/Boydstun, our interest in the public transit system and the
need for state support for transit, our interest in the health of Big Payette Lake and state boat inspections
for invasive species, and our efforts to improve coordination with the Department of State Lands, our
partnership with the Forest Service smoke jumper base and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
award of $11 Million towards our taxiway relocation project, to name a few.
6.Big Payette Lake Water Quality Council Meeting:
I attended a meeting of their newly formed board at their invitation. Their discussion focused primarily
on their interest in preserving and protecting the health and water quality of Big Payette Lake. At this
meeting, I learned there are two projects proposed to be conducted on the lake this summer by graduate
students from different universities. One student will attempt to measure the rate of erosion of the
shoreline at Payette Lake and Cascade Lake. Another student will attempt to measure wave energy from
different types of boats. The State Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is aware of the two
projects and is assisting the students with data and other research support but the DEQ is not officially
sponsoring these projects and did not develop their methodologies.
7.Human Resources Update:
The application period for the Airport Manager position has closed. Applications are being screened and
a first round of telephone/skype interviews will happen by mid-June. Finalists will be invited to in-person
interviews at the end of the month.

Monthly Department Report – Airport
Memo
To: City Council
From: Jay Scherer, Airport Manager
CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager
Date 6/5/2019
Re: Monthly Department Report – May 2019
1. Airport Development:
Airport staff reassessed the triangle development for snow removal. Will meet Council in June with
improved plan and a request for additional commercial space between the Snow Removal Equipment shed
and emergency gate (fronting Deinhard Ln).
2. Parallel Taxiway Relocation:
In the design phase, T-O engineers is gathering data on current airport use per the contract and grant
application signed at the May 23 Council meeting.
3. Land Acquisition:
Closeout documents have been back and forth with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for review.
Currently with FAA for approval.
4. Airport Zoning:
The Airport Manager will make land use recommendations for properties underlying proposed protective
overlays to the Airport Advisory Committee, Community and Economic Development Dept, etc. prior to
departure.
5. Airport Lighting:
There is a failed card in the airport lighting regulator which has caused the airport runway edge lights to be
NOTAMed out of service. Standard published lead time to receive the cards is 6-8 weeks. Telephone
conversation with the manufacturer indicates a two week turn around may be possible if they have some
maintenance stock. This means no fixed wing night operations into McCall until the lights are repaired.
6. Events:
The Airport Manager exhibited a display of the Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast area picture
over McCall and some airplane videos at STEM day at Donnelly Elementary on May 18. The presentation
was well received.

Monthly Department Report – Golf Course
Memo
To: City Council
From: Eric McCormick, Golf Course Superintendent
CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager
Date: 6/5/2019
Re: Monthly Department Report – May 2019
1. Weather:
Weather was all over the board in May. Early in the month there was above normal warm windy weather
before turning wet again.
2. Staff:
At the beginning of the month, there were the three full time and 6 seasonal employees increasing to 13
seasonal employees by the end of the month. The starting wages was raised to $12.25 to hopefully
generate more interest. Of the applications received, several only wanted part time hours so making the
best of it. Utilizing community service people to help take up the slack.
3. Greens:
As soon as it was dry enough, Aspen and Birch greens were aerified. The weather changed suddenly
before the irrigation was running and the hot wind dried them out. Then before staff could aerify Cedar,
the weather changed again to rain. Staff spent the rest of the month getting the greens back into playing
condition.
4. Shop Expansion:
Staff had to stop working on the shop to focus on the course, which affected the move into the new shop
and has caused some disorganization making it a struggle to find things. However, everyone is thankful
for the extra room and nice office space.
5. Dog Walking Cart Paths:
The dog stations were left out until the course opened on Memorial Weekend. The dog stations were
left out on Cedar because it was still closed. There have been some people still walking on the course,
but staff has redirected most of them and they leave.
20 of 37
Monthly Department Report – Golf Course
6. Equipment Maintenance:
The new equipment is great. Thank you, Council, for agreeing to the lease. It has really made a difference
in the quality of cut and everything running as it should. There have been some issues which you always
do with new equipment, but Turf Equipment has been very responsive to work out problems.
7. Restaurant:
The restaurant opened full time when the course opened. Like everyone else in town, has been
challenged with staff issues but are finding people.
8. Course Open:
Aspen and Birch courses opened the Friday of Memorial Weekend to wet weather and had to keep the
carts on the cart paths because of all the standing water. Cedar still had snow on the upper holes plus
being very wet. The plan is to open Cedar June 7th.
9. Tent area:
Banyans started laying the donated pavers at the end of the month. Staff has been helping as time allows
between cleaning up the courses.
10. Tree Damage:
Staff was finally able to take care of some the downed branches and trees once the weather cooperated
and there was enough of a crew to do the work. There is still debris needing chipped.
11. Irrigation:
Staff started the irrigation to find there was no power to 6 holes out on Cedar. Also had one of the
controllers get flooded in the runoff which is being replaced and the issued fixed so to hopefully not
have this happen again. It took some time to find the electrical problem but it now back up and running.
Luckily there were only two leaks and everything else has been holding together.

Monthly Department Report – Information Systems
Memo
To: City Council
From: Chris Curtin, InfoSys Manager
CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager
Date: 6/3/19
Re: Monthly Department Report – May 2019
1. Network Infrastructure, Projects and Services:
InfoSys and Finance have deployed Caselle Connect. The first module deployed is budgetary reporting.
This allows each Department head to have insight into their Operating or Fund budgets. Information is
up to the minute. There are several additional modules being reviewed for deployment (timekeeping,
budget development, purchase order process, etc.)
2. Personnel:
Chris Curtain, Information Systems (InfoSys) Manager, will be visiting the City of Ammon for a tour
of their fiber project. He will be meeting with Bruce Patterson to discuss the financials surrounding his
implementation and will spend some time with their installation team to learn about the costs and hurdles
they see. The goal is to also meet with Robert Peterson to discuss his piece on the puzzle of head end
billing.
The InfoSys Manager will be attending the AIC conference in Boise held June 19-21.
3. Software Applications and Services:
Fiber installation has begun on the route from City Hall to Sansom Trail connecting the Airport, Parks
and Recreation and the Police Department. It is expected this portion will complete before July and will
then move to the Public Works to Water Treatment Plant route. Staff is in discussion with Syringa and
Cable One to work out the middle mile portion of the project. An agenda bill to approve the “Rapid”
logo for branding of the City’s fiber utility will be presented at the June 13 Council meeting.

Monthly Department Report – Library
Memo
To: City Council
From: Meg Lojek, Library Director
CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager
Date: 6/5/2019
Re: Monthly Department Report – May 2019
1. Staff:
Short-staffed this month which is challenging due to increased library use in the summer. The Library Director
and Casey Bruck presented an Info2Go webinar for the library community, nationwide. Casey presented a
STEAM workshop at Idaho First Bank, in partnership with University of Idaho Extension. He also represented
the McCall library with learning activities for kids at the 4H Aerospace Club of Valley County, held at Donnelly
Elementary School.
2. Other Projects:
CM Construction Management Company contract is under legal review.
3. Programs:
Doing Democracy: Program will take a break during the summer months.
Test Proctoring: Library has provided 19 test proctoring sessions this month, supporting local businesses with
apprenticeship tests and certification programs.
Preschool Garden: Gardens this month have provided fertile ground for learning opportunities for our
community! Story time kids planted our vegetable garden in the back-parking lot. They will care for the plants
and harvest in the fall, learning vocabulary and science concepts along the way.
Pollinator Garden: Girl Scout Troup 255 cooperated with Library and Parks staff, and the Payette Children’s
Forest, to plant a learning garden where the old ponderosa trees used to be up by the fire hydrant in front of the
library. The scouts also provided the library with a Pollinator Garden resource book and educational signs are
on the way to be placed in the garden itself.
Library Stats: May is included in this report.
Monthly Program Calendar: June library programs calendar is included in this report. Highlights include
Noxious Weeds Seminar, a Writing Seminar, and the three levels of Summer Reading Programs.

Monthly Department Report – Parks & Recreation
Memo
To: City Council
From: Kurt Wolf, Parks and Recreation Director
CC: Anette Spickard, City Manager
Date: 5/30/2019
Re: Monthly Department Report – May 2019
1. Spring Rec Programs & Registrations:
Summer program registrations opened Wednesday, May 1. The first registration came through at
12:04a.m. Most programs filled up immediately and the others are filling up quickly, all mountain bike
camps are full and on a waiting list. Programs and trips include zip line and rafting with Tamarack, soccer
camps with MUSA, tennis lessons with certified US Tennis Association instructor, t-ball and wee soccer.
Staff is experimenting with 2 free programs for youth including Traveling Playground and Athletic Dry
Land Conditioning.
Youth Baseball and Softball practices began May 13th. The program has 97 participants and 12 volunteer
coaches. Games will begin May 30th in McCall, Cascade and New Meadows.
2. Special Events:
Floral Night pop-up program – On Wednesday, May 8th, staff teamed up with Farm to Market Floral and
Apothespa for Sweet Spring Bouquet floral event. 25 registered participants attended the event. It was
another successful program with positive feedback and hopes of seeing a similar event hosted this fall.
Rain Garden Project: Staff teamed up with the Payette Children’s Forest to construct a small rain garden
off the North West corner of the gravel parking lot at the museum site. Funds where provided through the
Payette Children’s Forest. Event was held on Saturday, May 18.
Pollinator Planting Project: Staff teamed up with local Girl Scouts to help plant pollinator species adjacent
to the Wooley Boardwalk. Project kickstarted the mitigation efforts associated with the boardwalk

27 of 37
Monthly Department Report – Parks & Recreation
volunteers for wee soccer and t-ball. Umpires will be hired for youth, adult and tournament softball
programs.
Seasonal staffing on the parks side is better than it has been in three years. Seasonal staff have hit the
ground running and have been a huge help with spring cleanups and project completions.
New implements purchased through the CIP process have significantly reduced the amount of man hours
associated with spring cleanups and raking. The new Landscape Truck arrived at the end of the month.
Parks staff will be assisting in the Upper Payette Cooperative Weed Management Program again this
year. The first co-op work day is scheduled for June 04 in Lowman.
4. Waterways Committee – Valley County Waterways Ordinance Update:
County Waterways Committee will continue to assist the County Commissioners with the waterway’s
ordinance. The Waterways Committee informed Payette Lakes Protective Association they will be
dropping the 2008 ordinance and focusing on the 2017-18 draft ordinance as it relates to the public
comments received during the County Commissioners public hearings. A draft of this work will be
available during the July 09 Waterways Meeting which is open to the public.
5. Capital Projects & Maintenance:
Wooley Boardwalk: The project was completed ahead of schedule and is now open to the public. End
connections will be paved in conjunction with future paving projects in the area or as budgets dictate.
Grand opening ribbon cutting is scheduled for Saturday, June 15 from 11:00am – 1:00pm.
Celebration will be held on the West end on Denali Court.
Riverfront Park: Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) 319 Work: The efforts to stabilize and
reduce bank erosion at Riverfront Park are proving very successful. The bank barbs that were installed
last winter are preforming as designed. Staff was able to secure additional DEQ 319 Grant funds to
complete the top of bank work and further reduce erosion impacts from surface runoff. This work will
fully complete the mitigation work required of the site and situation.
