Mayor Andersen brought the meeting to order and the pledge was led by Council President Scott Long. PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN was first on the Agenda. The Mayor explained to the citizens what the Comprehensive Plan is. The Comprehensive Plan was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Things have been put into the plan as to how our City wants to plan for the future. Comments were made. A motion was made by Council member Scott Long to adopt the Comprehensive Plan as written with a notation to insure the continuation of the walking/bike paths and be consistent with our over all plan.

Public Hearing was closed at 5:40 p.m. The Consent Agenda was discussed. Council member Clip Holverson motioned to approve the Consent Agenda with the changes made, and Council member Scott Long seconded. All were in favor. Motion carried. The Water Rate Ordinance was approved. Council member Dennis McArthur motioned to approve the Ordinance and read the following: AN ORDINANCE REPEALING AND REENACTING SECTION 8-2-36 OF THE CITY CODE OF IONA, IADHO, RELATING TO WATER RATE FEES; PROVIDING FOR METHODLOGY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND ESTABLISHING EFFECTIVE DATE. Council member Scott Long seconded. Roll call as follows: Aye: Clip Holverson Dennis McArthur Steve Elliott Scott Long Nay: None Motion carried. Planning and Zoning Chairman, Jerry Hansen, gave his report. Mayor Andersen thanked Mr. Hansen and his committee for all the hard work they do. Mr. Hansen voiced his concerns about the growth on the hill and the traffic it will cause in Iona. Mayor Andersen will talk with the county about our concerns. Police Chief SanDee Knowles gave her report. Council member Scott Long mentioned that our Police Officer has also been dabbling in fire fighting and put out a car fire recently with her fire extinguisher, so, she is multi purpose. SanDee said it was scary since it was at the 6-12 gas station. She pulled up beside a car and it was smoking. Thanks to Council member Scott Long she had the fire extinguisher in her car. Work Supervisor Zech Prouse said he got a bid from Wheeler Electric on putting more lights up along the walking path in the park. The bid was $3325. Council member Steve Elliott will try to get a used light pole from Idaho Falls to help reduce the bid. City Clerk Betty McKinlay discussed the phone call she got from Document Imaging in documenting our ordinances. A representative had talked to the Mayor last summer at the AIC Meeting in Coeur d' Alene. Mayor Andersen said to have him give us a bid. The Mayor would also like to get our water bill computerized. The Mayor talked to Zech and our building inspector Bob McBride about going by the County Ordinances. The Mayor said we have Idaho Falls standards that we have adopted and we need to look at the book and see if they have anything on approach ways and stay consistent with Idaho Falls. The County is 30' and Bob is trying to enforce the 30'. We do not want people covering the swells. The Mayor discussed the Annual Street and Financial Road Report that needs to be done. He will get with Treasurer Ron Nelson and Work Supervisor Zech Prouse to get it filled out. Council member Scott Long discussed a couple of questions he had after reading the Minutes. Incoming Council member Dan Gubler asked last month what it would cost to have our Attorney present at our Council meetings. The Mayor will look into how much it would cost to have him attend. Scott also asked about contacting Dave Huntsman regarding handicap approach at the Stanger Building. Council member Clip Holverson said he has not been able to get in touch with Dave yet. Scott has talked to Dan about the fire truck that we own. Scott wanted it noted in the Minutes that he did talk to Dan about it and doing something with it. Mayor Andersen said that Rexburg contacted him about putting it in their Museum. Mayor Andersen asked Dan to look into some options. Scott encouraged the Council and Mayor NOT to give it away and if we put it in the Rexburg Museum it would be on loan. It does belong to Iona. It is a tangible piece of our history. The fire truck could be on display at our Iona events. Council member Dennis McArthur discussed that most of the wood he and Zech cut up has been hauled off. The Mayor said that Dennis and Zech trimmed the limbs off the trees in the park and cut it up. People driving by came and got it. The Mayor thanked them for doing the work. Council member Scott Long encouraged us as a City not to burn the limbs or wood that is left, but to haul it off. It sets a bad example to people we are trying to encourage to haul trash off rather then burn. Council member Clip Holverson discussed the Highway Assistance Grant. He has looked at it and things have to be done by Feb. 8th and application turned in by then. There are 7 1/3 percent local matching funds. Clip recommends the Mayor decide who he wants to give it to on the City Council and let them look it over to make a motion next month. Delinquent water bills were discussed. The non-commercial dog license permit that was turned in, the Mayor asked Police Chief SanDee Knowles to check and see how many dogs and the location. SanDee said the citizen is waiting until January to get the list of dogs etc. The Mayor asked if Tuesday is still good for City Council Meeting. Everyone agreed that Tuesday will be good. Mr. Biggs has not paid for the fence between his house and the shop that he agreed to pay for. The Mayor will talk to him. Council member Clip Holverson motioned to adjourn for our Christmas Party.
