IONA COMMUNITY CENTER PRESENT: Mayor Brad Andersen, Council President Jane Shaw, Council member Bruce Case, Council member Dan Gubler, Treasurer Ron Nelson, Public Works Supervisor Prouse, Police Chief Shannon Basaraba, City Clerk Robyn Keyes. ABSENT: Council member Dennis McArthur. VISITORS: None Mayor Andersen welcomed everyone and led with the Pledge of Allegiance. Consent agenda. The minutes, budget report, and financial report were reviewed. Mayor Andersen said the City had received the grant money for the water study and asked the Treasurer to send a payment to Keller and Associates. Council member Case made a motion to approve the consent agenda. Council President Shaw seconded the motion. All were in favor. Motion carried. Mayor Andersen noted that a typographical error had occurred when the Attorney prepared Ordinance 148-01-10 amending section I 1-4-12. The approved amendment was to allow chickens on 1/3 acre or greater, but the attorney also typed 1/3 acre or greater for the other allowable animal units. The 1/3 acre or greater was strictly for chickens and not cows, sheep, or horses. Council member Gubler made a motion to clarify that Ordinance 148-01-10 section 11-4- 2 should not have changed to 1/3 acre or greater and should remain'/z acre, and section 11-4-12 reflected the lot size changes for chickens allowing chickens on 1/3 acre or greater. Council member Case seconded the motion. All were in favor. Motion carried. Budget. The Mayor and Treasurer asked the Council to look over the 2010/2011 budget for any adjustments. Mayor Andersen said the City was still budgeting conservatively. Council member Gubler said he would like to budget for purchasing the new backhoe in full instead of making payment for two years. Council member Case asked if a line item could be added for land acquisition. Mayor Andersen said there was a possibility that the City would be required to pay 1 $23, 000 for the Safe Routes to School project due to an extension of the path from Free Ave. to Shurtliff Ave. at Rose Valley, and because of the difference in the size of easement on Owens Ave. and 55th The Council approved to pay for additional cost if the project goes over $125,000. Vehicle Ordinance. Mayor Andersen gave the Council copies of recommendations for the vehicle ordinance for them to consider. The Mayor said the issue would be placed on next month's agenda. Trash Collection. Mayor Andersen read the letter from the City Attorney informing the Council about the trash collection issue and the amortization process, and cautioning the Council regarding contracting with one company. Council member Gubler said he felt the wear and tear was substantial on the City roads and too much time was needed by Supervisor Prouse to plow around the trash bins three days a week. Council member Gubler read the proposals to the Council members. The Council agreed to move forward with the issue and send the proposals to the City Attorney for further review and recommendation. Mayor Andersen said the Council needed to discuss a matter regarding the City employees and entertained a motion for executive session.

This report is designed to inform you about the quality water and services we deliver to you every day. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. We want you to understand the efforts we make to continually improve and protect our water resources. We are committed to ensuring the quality of your water. Our water source is (i.e., groundwater, well) from the East Snake River Plain Aquifer. I am pleased to report that your drinking water is safe and meets federal and state requirements. A source water assessment was completed for your water system. Your system received a rating of "moderate" because of past historical data and where your water source is located (i.e., agriculture area). If you would like a copy of this report you can contact the Division of Environmental Quality (DEQ) or the City of Iona. If you have any questions about this report or concerning your water utility, please contact me at 521-6970. We want our valued customers to be informed about their water utility. Please contact the City of Iona of the next scheduled city council meeting. City of Iona routinely monitors for contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws. This table shows the results of our monitoring for the period of January 15Y to December 31', 2009. As water travels over the land or underground it can pick up substances or contaminants such as microbes, inorganic and organic chemicals, and radioactive substances. All drinking water, including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. It's important to remember that the presence of these contaminants does not necessarily pose a health risk. In this table you will find many teens and abbreviations you might not be familiar with. To help you better understand these terms we've provided the following definitions: Non -Detects (ND) - laboratory analysis indicates that the constituent is not present. Parts per million (ppm) or Milligrams per liter (mg/1) - one part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000. Parts per billion (ppb) or Micrograms per liter - one part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000. Pico curies per liter (pCi/L) - Pico curies per liter are a measure of the radioactivity in water. Millirems per year (mrem/yr) - measure of radiation absorbed by the body. Action Level - the concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow. Treatment Technique (T7) - (mandatory language) A treatment technique is a required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water. Maximum Contaminant Level - (mandatory language) The "Maximum Allowed" (MCL) is the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology. Maximum Contaminant Level Goal - (mandatory language) The "Goal" (MCLG) is the level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. TEST RESULTS Contaminant Violation Y/N Level Detected Unit Measurement MCLG MCL Likely Source of Contamination Microbiological Contaminants i.

As you can see by the table, our system had no violations.We're proud that your drinking water meets or exceeds all Federal and State requirements. We have learned through our monitoring and testing that some constituents have been detected. The EPA has determined that your water IS SAFE at these levels. All sources of drinking water are subject to potential contamination by substances that are naturally occurring or man made. These substances can be microbes, inorganic or organic chemicals and radioactive substances. All drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency's Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791. MCL's are set at very stringent levels. To understand the possible health effects described for many regulated constituents, a person would have to drink 2 liters of water every day at the MCL levelfor a lifetime to have a one - in -a -million chance of having the described health effect. Total Coliform: The Total Coliform Rule requires water systems to meet a strict limit for coliform bacteria. Coliform bacteria are usually harmless, but their presence in water can be an indication of disease -causing bacteria. When coliform bacteria are found, special follow-up tests are done to determine if harmful bacteria are present in the water supply. If this limit is exceeded, the water supplier must notify the public by newspaper, television or radio. Nitrates: As a precaution we always notify physicians and health care providers in this area if there is ever a higher than normal level of nitrates in the water supply. Lead: Lead in drinking water is rarely the sole cause of lead poisoning, but it can addlto a person's total lead exposure. All potential sources of lead in the household should be identified and removed, replaced or reduced. In our continuing efforts to maintain a safe and dependable water supply it may be necessary to make improvements in your water system. The costs of these improvements may be reflected in the rate structure. Rate adjustments may be necessary in order to address these improvements. Thank you for allowing us to continue providing your family with clean, quality water this year. In order to maintain a safe and dependable water supply we sometimes need to make improvements that will benefit all of our customers. These improvements are sometimes reflected as rate structure adjustments. Thank you for understanding. Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno- compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791). Please call our City of Iona Office if you have questions. City of Iona works around the clock to provide top quality water to every tap, "said Public Works Supervisor Zech Prouse." We ask that all our customers help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of our community, our way of life and our children's future. Please call Zech Prouse @ 523-5600 if you have any questions. Sincerely, Brad D. Andersen, Mayor THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY, JUNE 15 HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED DUE TO A LACK OF QUORUM.
