Staff have updated the report to separate out short-term rentals (STR) and to show the number of Declaration of Compliance (DOC) documents received. Staff receives more DOCs than business licenses for STRs because the property management companies are taking on additional STR units. Staff hopes this report tells a more complete story.

MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 4 of 12 June 9, 2022Regular Meeting AB 22-150 Discussion and Reflections on 2021 Implementation of Railroad Avenue at SH- 55: Seasonal Left Turn Lane Closure Public Works Director Nathan Stewart and Police Chief Dallas Palmer presented to Council. In response to both community and City Council concerns of traffic congestion and pedestrian safety concerns at the Railroad Avenue and SH-55 intersection (east side), and as directed by previous City Council members, the Streets Department installed lane delineators and required signage that effectively closed the westbound left turn lane of Railroad Avenue from approximately late June through mid -September 2021. The intent behind the turn lane closure is that by removing the option to turn left, traffic backup (created by vehicles queuing in the left turn lane would be eliminated). All westbound traffic would be required to turn right and head north on SH-55. Additional signage was installed throughout the east side of town to assist drivers wanting to head south on SH-55 to utilize alternative routes (principally Spring Mountain Boulevard). Although staff did not have any budget or capacity to complete formal traffic/pedestrian counts, both Public Works and Police management staff observed traffic conditions at the intersection informally to identify if the lane closure was creating a positive or negative impact on vehicle congestion and overall user safety. Additionally, the City conducted a survey to measure public opinion on the implementation of the seasonal lane closure. Council Member Maciaszek asked Director Stewart why or why not use traffic lights. Director Stewart noted funding issues and high demand for limited supply and that the State has jurisdiction over Third Street (HWY 55). He clarified that the State does not put traffic lights in places that do not have imminent need. Additionally, a traffic light at that location would back up all the way to Deinhard and would cause a chain reaction of the need for additional traffic lights at all intersections on HWY 55. Council Member Thrower asked about the potential of a roundabout. Director Stewart noted that roundabouts can be positive but finding the land to implement the design of a roundabout can be a challenge. For this specific area it would mean eliminating the parking lot and possibly need for the City to buy businesses and private property. Other options would be to install pedestrian activated beacons but that would cause the pedestrian traffic to be the driver at the intersection slowing down traffic. Director Stewart explained that slow traffic causes high anxiety and during high anxiety bad decisions are made more frequently. He additionally noted that the traffic change is only from June first to September, and it is not for the entire year. Council Member Maciaszek and Council Member Nelson are in full support of the solution. Council Member Thrower noted there does not seem to be any good alternative. Council Member Thrower additionally noted the stop sign on Thompson and Davis Ave does not get stopped at year-round and the issue increases during the time the no left turn is in place. An additional issue is the uncontrolled pedestrian traffic. Director Stewart noted staff did consider limiting available cross walks to help direct pedestrian traffic. Staff is not in favor of limiting cross walks in the downtown because the most dangerous traffic decision is made by a vehicle not a pedestrian. MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 5 of 12 June 9, 2022Regular Meeting Council Member Thrower asked about removable speed bumps by the stop sign on Thompson and Davis to limit the amount of people disregarding the stop sign during the summer. Director stewart noted the inability to use speedbumps due to the snow and climate of McCall. Council Member Thrower asked for Chief Palmer's thoughts on the subject. Chief Palmer noted the patrol units have spent a lot of time at that stop sign and more patrols could be rotated to the area. Another option would be flagging the stop sign to make it more visible. Council Member Nielsen brought up the change of jurisdiction needed for 31d Street but there is no easy solution, and the no left turn is the best temporary solution. Additionally Council Member Nielsen noted options such as one-way streets in downtown and redirecting large traffic out of neighborhoods. Mayor Giles commented on the great job city staff does with signage and education and how communication continues to be a good tool. Mayor Giles agrees with the implementation of the no left turn. AB 22-144 Request to Approve Letter of Support for Idaho Transportation Department Grant Application for Payette River National Scenic Byway Signage Council Member Thrower, as the City's representative to the Payette River National Scenic Byway organization, presented the organization's request that member agencies provide letters of support for the grant application that Idaho Transportation Department is submitting to the Federal Highways Administration for new signage along the byway corridor. The letter will be placed on city letterhead for the Mayor's signature. Council had no comments or questions regarding the letter of support for Payette River National Scenic Byway. Council Member Maciaszek moved to approve the letter of support for Idaho Department of Transportation's grant application to the Federal Highways Administration and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents. Council Member Nielsen seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council Member Maciaszek, Council Member Nelson, Mayor Giles, Council Member Nielsen, and Council Member Thrower all voted aye, and the motion carried. AB 22-146 Request Approval of the Modification to Council Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law — Conditions for Approval of PUD-20-01, SUB -20- 04 — Running Horse Subdivision City Planner Brian Parker presented to Council. The applicant for PUD-20-01 has requested to modify condition of approval #5 on the final plat and final development plan for Running Horse Subdivision. The condition currently reads as follows: 5. Prior to issuance of a building permit for any lot, proof of sewer permit shall be required. The applicant is requesting to modify the condition of approval to the following: 5. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(c) of the Development Agreement, prior to the issuance of any Certificate of Occupancy for any Townhome Unit, the applicant shall have received a sewer connection permit from the District for the Unit, connected the Unit to the MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 6 of 12 June 9, 2022Regular Meeting District's system and received final District approval of the connection. Staff has no objection to this proposal. Council Member Maciaszek asked if each unit would get the sewer connection. Planner Parker noted that the sewer district has agreed to give each unit a sewer connection. Steve Millemann, the applicant's attorney, noted the Planning and Zoning Commission is in favor of the application. The letter from the Sewer District notes the improvements being under contract currently and the project is fully funded. If desired by the City, the applicant would fully indemnify the City for any potential liability. Council Member Nielsen asked for clarification on the letter from the Sewer District. Planner Parker explained the categories the Sewer District uses and how they came to their conclusion. Mr. Millemann additionally explained the density of the parcel. Council Member Nelson moved to Approve the Modified Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, and Decision documents for Running Horse Subdivision (PUD-20-01, SUB -20-04) and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents. Council Member Maciaszek seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council Member Nelson, Council Member Maciaszek, Mayor Giles, and Council Member Thrower all voted aye, Council Member Nielsen voted no, and the motion carried. AB 22-147 Request Acceptance of Easements for ROS-21-18 at 1415 Warren Wagon Road City Planner Brian Parker presented to Council. The applicant for ROS-21-18 located at 1415 Warren Wagon Road is requesting that the City enter into easement agreements with the Mayor's signature rather than utilizing the more common declaration process. The City Attorney has reviewed the easement documents. Council Member Thrower asked for clarification on the legal needs to have the easement signed by the Mayor. Attorney Nichols noted there is no legal need to have the easement signed by the Mayor. Planner Parker noted the applicant is requesting the Mayor's signature. Council Member Nelson asked if all parties are accepting. Planner Parker noted that all parties are accepting. Attorney Nichols confirmed the process to be legal. Council Member Thrower moved to Accept the easements for ROS-21-18 at 1415 Warren Wagon Road and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents. Council Member Maciaszek seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council Member Thrower, Council Member Maciaszek, Mayor Giles, Council Member Nelson and Council Member Nielsen all voted aye, and the motion carried. AB 22-149 Park Street and Thompson Avenue - Phase 2: Recommendation to Modify Contract Award to Include Base Bid and Bid Alternate 1 Public Works Director Nathan Stewart presented to Council. On April 28, 2022, City Council voted to award the base bid for the Park/Thompson Phase 2 Project. As part of the discussion, Council deliberated additionally awarding Bid Alternate #1 that would extend the project improvements east from 4`h Street to 3rd Street. Staff explained that the bidding was considered MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 7 of 12 June 9, 2022Regular Meeting competitive and that total project low bid from Falvey's Earthworks was within 17% of the Engineer's estimate. However, staff cautioned that awarding the Bid Alternate #1 (an additional —$660K) could impact funding availability for future projects, pending the future development of the draft 6 -year CIP/MIP. On May 27th, the Public Works Director/City Engineer presented to the City Council the draft 6 - year CIP which outlined estimated future project costs. Staff also identified that the projected Streets LOT revenue for FY22 had significantly increased from what was assumed in late April, $2.2M, to $3.0M based on latest collection information from the LOT Administrator. In light of the new information provided in the draft CIP, and as directed by Council, staff was asked to prepare this agenda item to reconsider awarding the bid alternative. Staff has confirmed that Falvey's Earthworks will warrant the Bid Alternate #1 price from their original bid. The City has not yet executed the construction contract with Falvey's Earthworks for the base bid, so if Council chooses to award Bid Alternate #1, staff can finalize the contract documents accordingly. Council had no comments or concerns regarding awarding the bid alternate. Council Member Maciaszek moved to modify the contract award to Falvey's Earthworks to include the Base Bid and Bid Alternate #1 for a total contract price of $1,022,953; authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents; and authorize staff to manage change orders up to 10% over the original contract amount. Council Member Nelson seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council Member Maciaszek, Council Member Nelson, Mayor Giles, Council Member Nielsen and Council Member Thrower all voted aye, and the motion carried. AB 22-151 Request to Execute Construction Agreement with Idaho Power for Utility Upgrades on SH-55 and Deinhard Lane Public Works Direct Nathan Stewart presented to Council. In preparation for the reconstruction of SH-55 and Deinhard Lane intersection (planned for Summer 2023), the City has been working with the existing overhead and underground franchise utilities on relocating and upgrading their utility lines so that they do not conflict with the future road construction/infrastructure. Per the City's Franchise Agreement with Idaho Power, when requested to relocate, the City has the option to pay the additional cost of undergrounding overhead utilities. This agenda bill presents the construction agreement with Idaho Power to effectuate the relocation project and reimburse Idaho Power $128,695 for the City's preference to relocate the overhead utilities underground, upon project completion. Council had no questions or comments regarding the construction agreement with Idaho Power for Utility upgrades on HS -55 and Deinhard Lane. MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 8 of 12 June 9, 2022Regular Meeting Council Member Thrower moved to Execute the Construction Agreement with Idaho Power for the SH-55 utility relocation project; authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents; and authorize staff to manage change orders up to 10% over the original contract amount. Council Member Maciaszek seconded the motion. In a roll call vote Council Member Thrower, Council Member Maciaszek, Mayor Giles, Council Member Nelson, and Council Member Nielsen all voted aye, and the motion carried. AB 22-152 Request to Execute Construction Agreement with Idaho Power for Undergrounding Overhead Utilities on State Street and Central Idaho Historical Museum Property Public Works Director Nathan Stewart presented to Council. As part of the new St. Luke's Hospital expansion, St. Luke's is required to reconstruct State Street (from W. Lake to Forest) as well as construct a westbound left turn lane on W. Lake at the State Street intersection. Staff has been working with both St. Luke's and the existing overhead franchise utilities located along the west side of State Street right-of-way to develop plans and an implementation strategy to underground the overhead utilities on State Street (in advance of the turn lane construction). Although State Street reconstruction has been completed, St. Luke's confirmed this Spring they plan to complete the turn lane construction in Spring 2023. Per the City's franchise agreement with Idaho Power, if requesting to underground existing utilities (that do not need to be relocated), the City is responsible for 100% of the conversion costs of undergrounding existing overhead Idaho Power utilities. This agenda bill presents the construction agreement with Idaho Power to effectuate this overhead to underground conversion project and reimburse Idaho Power $512,189, upon project completion. The agreement was received on 6/1/22 and approving the agreement in early June will allow Idaho Power to complete the construction work in a timely manner and progress to other City initiated relocation/undergrounding projects throughout the City without further delay. Council Member Maciaszek asked for clarification on how franchise fees are accumulated. Director Stewart noted that Idaho Power collects franchise fees on customer bills. The fee is required for Idaho Power to utilize City right of way and is collected by Idaho Power and paid to the City. Council Member Maciaszek asked if the fees are only to be used for undergrounding utilities. Director Stewart clarified that the funds can be used for anything the City desires but in the past Council has directed staff to use the funds specifically for utility improvement. Attorney Nichols further confirmed Director Stewarts clarification. Council Member Nelson asked if staff feels continuing the use of the funds as previously directed by Council is still a good use of the funds. Staff agreed it is a good use of the funds. Council Member Nielsen asked if franchise fees are paying 100% of the project. Director Stewart affirmed the project is funded 100% by franchise fees. Council Member Nielsen asked for clarification on the location of the project and what is being undergrounded. Director Stewart noted the location along the historic museum property. MCCALL CITY COUNCIL Page 9 of 12 June 9, 2022Regular Meeting Council Member Maciaszek moved to Execute the Construction Agreement with Idaho Power for the State Street Utility Undergrounding Project; authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents; and authorize staff to manage change orders up to 10% over the original contract amount.

Radar speed signs, also known as driver feedback signs, are traffic calming devices designed to slow drivers down by alerting them of their speed. These signs are effective because they provide a trigger to convert a driver's brain activity from "autopilot" to an "engaged" state. These signs are being used across the country as well as in McCall and Valley County because they are effective at slowing speeders down. As a full time resident with my house being just off of Spring Mountain Ranch Boulevard, I frequently observe the speeding and reckless driving. 1 suspect that the majority of drivers are not aware of the speed limit or aware of how fast they are driving. I have personally observed how the radar speed signs on Lick Creek Road, Highway 55, and Warren Wagon Road dramatically slow down the speed of cars and trucks. Studies have shown that speeders WILL slow down up to 80% of the time and overall compliance with the posted speed limit will increase by 60%. Radar speed signs show long term reduction in speeding drivers. (Bellevue WA Study indicates that speed reduction effectiveness continued to increase over time) Especially during heavy travel times in the morning, evening and during holidays when it only takes one driver driving the speed limit to slow everyone down. With the paved trail along Spring Mountain Ranch Boulevard, the Ranch House facilities (swimming pool, etc.) and the golf course crossings, there are greater numbers of people, children crossing this road than on either Lick Creek or Warren Wagon Road. Though I am not aware of any serious accidents on Spring Mountain Ranch Boulevard,1 would hate to think that it would take a serious accident to get the City to take additional action to reduce speeding. With the new pavement on Spring Mountain Ranch Blvd I expect speeding and reckless driving will only increase, especially between Wooley and Mountain Meadow Drive. I appreciate the responsiveness of the McCaII City Police in responding to the times I have called to report excessive reckless driving, but by the time they respond the reckless drivers are long gone. Our police officers cannot be patrolling the road every day and I know they have more important work. I accept that it is not economically feasible to place radar speed signs on most roads, but with the continuing growth (increase) in residential construction, more visitors to Ponderosa State Park and the growing congestion in downtown McCall, Spring Mountain Ranch Blvd has now become the defacto bypass for drivers wishing to avoid the traffic on 3rd Street, Pine Street and Davis. And because drivers do not see businesses fronting Spring Mountain Ranch Blvd many seem to assume that they can drive at any speed they want, treating it as highway rather than the residential, 25 mph road that it is. I am aware of the cost of installing and maintaining these signs and if this is a reason for the City to decline, the City could install traffic cameras and then issue tickets. The revenue would quickly pay for installation of the cameras. However, again I believe that the majority of drivers are just not aware of the speed limit or how fast they are driving. Thank you for considering my request. -70f).. (---.4o4,4i Tom Tidwell 1165 Majestic View Drive McCall ID ttidcvber@aol.com
