Council to the Forest Service to request an extension for the comment period for the Environmental

requesting the City Council write a letter to the Forest Service to ask for the public comment period
for the Stibnite gold mine operations staff Environmental Impact Statement be extended an

Statement (DEIS) to 90 days from the current 45. The letter also stated the reasoning behind the

approve comments.

how much time had already been spent by the Council on the subject.

an additional Council Meeting within the time frame of the comment period then the Council
should have an additional meeting within that time frame.

community due diligence. He likes the letter.

Completion Report Templates
City Clerk BessieJo Wagner presented the Local Option Tax Funding Contract and Completion
Report Templates. With the approval of Ordinance 965 -3%Occupancy Local Option Tax(LOT),
it was identified that the Council would review and approve the contract to be used for the entities
awarded funds. During discussions the Council wanted to understand the process staff used when
distributing LOT funds and the process used to ensure those funds were spent according to the
contract. Staff has worked with the City Attorney to revise the contract template used historically.
McCall City Council Regular Meeting Page 10 of 13
January 9, 2020
The template requires the attachment of the original application to the contract to ensure that all
parties are clear of the project that was approved for funding. Staff is requesting that Council
approve the contract template and authorize the Mayor to sign all the contracts for FY2020 for the
approved funding. The checks for the approved funding will still come to the Council for approval
through the Warrant Register process.The other option would be that the contracts would be placed
on the Consent Agenda for individual approval as the funding becomes available. By approving
the contract template and giving authority to the Mayor to sign all contracts for the approved LOT
awards,the process of releasing the funds to the recipients will be expedited.
In FY19 the Council recognized a need to revise the contract and add the following language:
1.1.2 If the Recipient dissolves or ceases operations within five (5)years after receiving funds that
are used to purchase tangible personal property, then prior to or at dissolution or the cessation of
operations, such tangible personal property shall be tendered to the City. The City is not obligated
to accept such property and may use its discretion whether to receive the property or otherwise direct
its distribution.
Council Member Holmes Approve the Local Option Tax Funding Contract and Completion
Report templates and authorize the Mayor to sign all the contracts for FY2020 approved
LOT projects. Council Member Sowers seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council
Member Holmes, Council Member Sowers, Mayor Giles, Council Member Nielsen, and
Council Member Maciaszek all voted aye and the motion carried.

2020
City Clerk BessieJo Wagner presented the Resolution 20-03 McCall City Council Meeting
Schedule for 2018. McCall City Code §1-8-2 states that regular Council meetings will be held on
the second and fourth Thursdays of each month except when such regular meetings fall on a legal
holiday, then the meetings would be held on the preceding day unless otherwise fixed by the
Council. With the election of new Council Members, the Council may wish to change its regular
meeting days. If so, staff will need to be directed to bring forth an ordinance with such changes at
the next Council Meeting.
In the event the Council chooses to maintain their current meetings schedule the following is
recommended. In past years the Council has elected to alter the regular Council meetings to
accommodate the holidays and prevent having a regular meeting on 2 consecutive weeks. Also,

historically the Council has opted to alter their schedule to accommodate the AIC Conference in
June as both elected officials and staff have participated.
Staff has identified two options for the Council's consideration: Option one only alters the Council
meeting dates for November and December. Option two also alters Council meeting dates for May
and June, to accommodate for the AIC conference June 10-12.
Council Member Council Member Holmes moved to approve Resolution 20-03 adopting the
McCall City Council Meeting Schedule Option two for 2020 and authorize the Mayor to sign
all necessary documents. Council Member Sowers seconded the motion. In a roll call vote
