CITY COUNCIL MEETING 5:30 P.M. DECEMBER 16, 2008 IONA COMMUNITY
CENTER
PRESENT: Mayor Brad Andersen, Council President Dennis McArthur, Council member
Steve Elliott, Council member Jane Shaw, Council member Dan Gubler, Treasurer Ron
Nelson, Public Works Supervisor Zech Prouse, Police Chief Shannon Basaraba, City
Clerk Robyn Keyes
VISITORS: Lynn Rockwood, Adrian Beazer
Mayor Andersen welcomed everyone and Supervisor Prouse led the Pledge of
Allegiance.
Consent Agenda. The minutes were reviewed and President McArthur made a word
correction on page one. Council member Elliott complimented Chief Basaraba and
Supervisor Prouse for their work on collecting the delinquent water bills.
Mayor Andersen said that because of the uncertainty of the national economy, the City
should act conservatively regarding City spending. The Mayor said that any spending that
involved State or Federal revenue, the City should try to stay at least 6 % under the
annual budget, which equaled out to 1/2 % each month; this worked out to an average of
7.8 % instead of the normal 8.3 %. The Mayor said that the City should evaluate the
spending after 6 months to ensure that the City was safely within the budget before
approving any major repairs or expenses. Mayor Andersen also reminded the Council
that of the $289,000 in the water fund revenue, part of the money was coming from
savings such as, reserves and grants, and to keep that difference in mind when reviewing
the estimated revenue and calculating expenses. That amount, minus the savings, was
$201, 500. Mayor Andersen said that the savings was available for use, but preferred to
save it for any unexpected expense. President McArthur asked if the new water rate
would generate enough revenue to cover the expenses, Mayor Andersen said that it
should. Supervisor Prouse asked when he would know how much money was available
for the seal coating of the roads, Mayor Andersen said the City planned for $30,000.
Council member Gubler asked when the City would know how much money was getting
from the State. Mayor Andersen said that the legislature was meeting in January and that
the City should have information by the end of January. Council member Gubler asked if
the bill from United Mailing was in addition to the bill for mailing the water bills.
Treasurer Nelson explained that United Mailing only billed for the printing and stuffing
of envelopes and the postage was paid separately to the Postal Service.
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion from the Council to approve the consent agenda.
Council member Elliott made a motion to approve the consent agenda. Council member
Gubler seconded the motion. All were in favor. Motion carried, consent agenda approved.
Lynn Rockwood. Mr. Rockwood gave the Council a copy of the legal description of the
property between Rockwood Ave. and the fence at the front of the City garage, along
with a copy of the taxes due on said property and entertained the notion of selling the
property to the City. Mayor Andersen asked Mr. Rockwood why he was coming to the
City now regarding the issue and asked why this had not been taken care of during the
sale of the property. Mr. Rockwood said that the City was "nickel and dime-ing" him and
not accepting the subdivision. Supervisor Prouse and Mayor Andersen said that the
subdivision had been accepted. Mr. Rockwood said that he received a bill for signs that
were installed and that he had to install French drains. Mayor Andersen said that he
would have to read the development agreement, but that installation of signs was the
developer's responsibility. Mayor Andersen said that he recalled discussing the drainage
issues a couple of years ago and that water had been collecting in the easement and up
onto the road. Mr. Rockwood said that the City had the choice of renting or buying the
easement property in front of the City garage. Mayor Andersen said that we would ask
the City attorney to review the development agreement and advise the City on the issue.
Mayor Andersen said that the requirements for Mr. Rockwood's development were the
same requirements that were for all of the other developers in Iona. Council member
Elliott asked why the land had not been part of the initial purchase. Mayor Andersen had
the same question and suggested tabling the issue until the attorney reviewed the
agreement. Chief Basaraba and Council member Shaw agreed that normally where there
is a land purchase, there is an easement involved. Council member Elliott said that the
City wanted to clear up the issue and make it right. Mr. Rockwood said that he had been
paying the taxes for the last couple years; Mayor Andersen said that the City was not
aware of the tax charge and would have the attorney review the issue. Mayor Andersen
said that he was sorry that Mr. Rockwood felt like the City was nickel and dime-ing him
and The Mayor said that the City enforced the same regulations upon all developers and
that Mr. Rockwood was not being treated differently. Council member Gubler said that
he wanted to be clear and asked if the land in issue was the part of the driveway from
Rockwood Ave. to the fence. Mr. Rockwood said that was correct. Mr. Rockwood also
said that there may be a conflict of interest with the attorney. Mayor Andersen said that
the attorney would recuse himself if that were the case. Mayor Andersen asked Mr.
Rockwood if he had any further questions, Mr. Rockwood did not. Mayor Andersen
thanked Mr. Rockwood for his time.
Previous Business Action Items. Mayor Andersen asked if anyone had previous
business that they wanted to discuss.
Council member Gubler said that he would like to discuss the trash mandate issue.
Council member Gubler informed the Council that the attorney said that the City could
give one company the exclusive right to collect trash through a franchise agreement. The
attorney said that before the City presented the issue to the public for a vote, the City
needed to negotiate a set amount with the trash company. The attorney said that the City
needed to submit a request for proposal and that the City should write the terms of the
contract. Council member Gubler asked the Council how they wanted to proceed; Mayor
Andersen asked what Council member Gubler's recommendation was. Council member
Gubler said there was no difference between a franchise agreement and a contract and
that attorney Storer stated concern with a contract and suggested implementing
safeguards within the contract in the event of unsatisfactory service. Mayor Andersen
suggested holding a work meeting in January to discuss the terms of the contract. Council
member Gubler agreed that a work meeting would be helpful.
Chief Basaraba said that he received notice that he had passed his test and that he would
take his final test sometime the first work week of January and he should be ready to
patrol by the middle of January.
Mayor Andersen said he had received several complaints about some of the Christmas
decorations at one of the homes in Iona and had helped with mediation between the two
neighbors. The Mayor asked the Council to help problem solve ways to avoid these
situations in the future. Council member Gubler asked if the City would have to pass an
ordinance for decorations, the Mayor said that perhaps a resolution would be in order, but
if the problem was big enough, it would fall under a public nuisance.
Approval of Annexation Ordinance for Longhurst. Council president McArthur read
the summary for the ordinance that annexed the property at 2460 N. 50 E. belonging to
Lin Longhurst into the City of Iona. Council president McArthur then made a motion to
authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the annexation agreement if there is one, and
that the City dispense with the rule requiring that the ordinance be read in full and on
three separate occasions and that we pass the rule on all three readings. Council member
Elliott seconded the motion. Roll call as follows:
AYE: Council president McArthur, Council member Elliott, Council member
Shaw, Council member Gubler.
NAY: None
Motion carried, annexation ordinance for Longhurst property approved.
Approval of Annexation Ordinance for Hunting. Council member Elliott read the
summary for the ordinance that annexed the property at 2412 N. 50 E. belonging to Scott
Hunting into the City of Iona. Council member Elliott made a motion to authorize the
Mayor and City Clerk to sign the annexation agreement if there is one, and that the City
dispense with the rule requiring that the ordinance be read in full and on three separate
occasions and that we pass the rule on all three readings. Council member Shaw
seconded the motion. Ro11 call as follows:
AYE: Council president Mc Arthur, Council member Elliott, Council member
Shaw, Council member Gubler.
NAY: None.
Motion carried, annexation ordinance for Hunting property approved.
Lynn Rockwood asked what the procedure for annexing a property was. Mayor Andersen
said that a hearing with planning and zoning was first, then a hearing with the City
Council. Mr. Rockwood said that he was sent back and forth from planning and zoning
and the Council and that his property was not annexed. Mayor Andersen said that the
City had set up meetings regarding the issue and that Mr. Rockwood did not show up for
the scheduled meetings. Mayor Andersen said that the procedure is the same for
FIN
everyone, but that Mr. Rockwood needed to show up to the meetings when he was
scheduled.
Approval of parking ordinance. Council member Shaw made a motion to approve an
ordinance amending sections 9-4-5, 9-4-21, 9-4-22, and 9-4-23 of the City Code of Iona
relating to the parking and storage of motor vehicles on public streets; preserving prior
ordinance; providing for severability; and establishing an effective date and that the City
dispense with the rule requiring that the ordinance be read in full and on three separate
occasions and that we pass the rule on all three readings. Council president McArthur
seconded the motion. Roll call as follows:
AYE: Council president McArthur, Council member Elliott, Council member
Shaw, Council member Gubler.
NAY: None
Motion carried, parking ordinance approved.
Approval of Lance Ellis to Planning and Zoning Commission. Mayor Andersen said
Lance Ellis had expressed interest in serving on the planning and zoning commission and
would take the place of Jared Wight. Mayor Andersen said that Jared Wight had decided
not leave right away and that Lance could go to the planning and zoning meetings to get
oriented, and become a member when Jared leaves. Council member Gubler suggested
waiting to approve Lance Ellis until he would be serving on the commission. Planning
and Zoning member Adrian Beazer said that Jared would probably be leaving in April or
May. The Council decided to wait until a time closer to when Jared was leaving to
approve Lance.
Council Reports. Mayor Andersen said that he had received a flyer in the mail regarding
residential windmills and suggested that the Council started to think about the issue and
perhaps put an ordinance in place as a safe guard. Clerk Keyes said that the subject was
on the agenda for the next planning and zoning meeting.
Approval of delinquent water ordinance. Council member Gubler made a motion to
approve the ordinance amending section 8-2-34 of the City code regarding administrative
procedures for delinquent water accounts; increasing delinquency fee from $2.00 to
$5.00; increasing amount of disconnect and reconnect fees; providing for methodology;
preserving prior ordinance; providing for severability; and establishing an effective date
and that the City dispense with the rule requiring that the ordinance be read in full and on
three separate occasions and that we pass the rule on all three readings. Council member
Shaw seconded the motion. Roll call as follows:
AYE: Council president McArthur, Council member Elliott, Council member
Shaw, Council member Gubler.
NAY: None.
Motion carried, delinquent water ordinance approved.
Council Reports.
Mayor Andersen asked Chief Basaraba to explain the speed zone in front of the school.
Chief Basaraba said that he had the signs moved back to the edge of the school property
instead of just before the cross walk thus increasing the speed zone area and that the
speed limit signs were now in the same location for both directions of traffic. Chief
Basaraba also said that he had made the suggestion during the advisory board meeting to
have a uniform speed limit throughout the entire City of 25 mph unless other wise posted.
The other speed limits would be the school zone and 35 mph through the main arterials
like 55th and Iona Rd. Chief Basaraba said that this would create a buffer zone between
the 35 mph and the school zone. Mayor Andersen said that he, along with Chief
Basaraba, was going to talk to the County and ask if the 35 mph speed limit sign on the
north end of 55th and the west end of Iona Rd could be moved back so that traffic would
slow down to 35 mph before entering the residential area of Iona.
Council president McArthur said that the tree committee meeting was cancelled due to an
illness and that it will be rescheduled. President McArthur said that two big trees on the
east end of the park had been cut down and hauled away. Mayor Andersen asked
President McArthur to email the Council when a big job like tree removal was taking
place and perhaps more people could help.
Council member Elliott, no report.
Council member Shaw, no report.
Treasurer Nelson no report.
Supervisor Prouse, no report.
Council member Gubler said that he would like Clerk Keyes add to January's newsletter
asking the public to notify the Mayor or Police Chief if they had any information
regarding the recent vandalism at the new church. Chief Basaraba said that the
Bonneville County Sheriff had not communicated with the City regarding the vandalism
and that the City had to learn about the incident on the news.
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion to adjourn. Council president McArthur made a
motion to adjourn; Council member Shaw seconded the motion. All were in favor.
Adjourned 6:30 p.m

I know there was confusion at the last council meeting after I left. This is to help clarify where the
school was posted and how it is now posted. As you can see, the school zone is much larger than it was.
I moved the signs across from one another otherwise I cannot enforce the speed limits. I also moved
the signs to the school property boundaries. Just for your information, I have watched the crosswalk at
Main and Iona Rd. %Z before school and %: hour after school and I have yet to see a child use this
crosswalk. This is not to say it is not used. It is just to say that children are not using it while going to or
coming from school. I hope this clarifies the changes because the individual who brought this up was a
little confused on how this used to be posted prior to the change. It was not posted at the 612.
