AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER PRESENT: Mayor, Brad Andersen; Council members, Steve Elliott, Jane Shaw, Dan Gubler; Treasurer, Ron Nelson; Public Works Supervisor, Zech Prouse; City Clerk, Robyn Keyes ABSENT: Council member Dennis McArthur VISITORS: Judy Botero, Paul Botero, Adrian Beazer, Nancy Long, Barbara Schreier, Sally Price, Michael Schreier, Edna Gerard, Roy Hobbs, Bruce Case, Jerry Hansen, Ryan Loftus Mayor Andersen brought the meeting to order. Treasurer Ron Nelson led the Pledge. The consent agenda was reviewed. Council member Dan Gubler noted that on page 10 in last month's minutes, a correction needed to be made regarding his report. The corrections were noted. The financial report was reviewed. Dan asked if the last water bond payment had been made, Mayor Andersen said it had. Dan also asked about the allocation of money for repairs to the ball diamond. The Mayor said there is money in the recreation fund for the ball field. Dan asked if the repairs to the windows would come out of the capital improvement fund, The Mayor said that they would, and that there is $30,000.00 set aside to fix the roads. Council Member Gubler noted that we are 2/3 of the way through the year and our salaries and benefits are 96% expended. Treasurer Nelson said that was because the salaries have been taken out of the general fund and if necessary, he would start taking salaries out of the water fund. Dan asked if the police fund was for SanDee, Ron said that the funds were for paying Bonneville County Sheriff for their patrol. Mayor Andersen said that some of the money was left in there for the Code Enforcement Officer. Council member Jane Shaw asked why the building inspections were in the negative. Ron explained that this was the first year that the City had provided building inspections and that the City under estimated the budget expense. Jane said that the City has just gone over the estimated budget expense and is not overdrawn. Ron said that was correct. Council member Dan Gubler made a motion to approve the consent agenda. Council member Jane Shaw seconded. All were in favor. Mayor Andersen presented an award for Outstanding Service to the Community to Paul Botero. The Mayor thanked Paul for all of the years of volunteering and his commitment to improving our community. Paul accepted the award, thanked the Mayor and talked about what a wonderful community Iona is. Mayor Andersen discussed the results of the water quality report. The Mayor handed out a copy of the report to the visitors, and asked if anyone had any questions. Council Member Gubler said that he was impressed with the results and appreciated the good water Iona had. Mayor Andersen stated that the City of Iona had won an award for taking a proactive approach to protecting the City's water. Mayor Andersen asked Clerk Robyn 1 Keyes to post a notice on the water bill letting the public know that a copy of the water study results will be available to view in the City Office. Mayor Andersen moved on to the approval of the water rate increase. The Mayor explained that the new ordinance showed the water rate increase. Mayor Andersen passed a copy around for everyone to look at and told everyone the new rate increase will take effect July 1st• The Mayor noted that the rate for outside the city limits would be 150% of the $3.00 increase, which would make their increase around $4.50. Mayor Andersen entertained a motion to approve the ordinance to raise the water rate. Council Member Dan Gubler read the following ordinance: ORDINANCE NO. 136-6-08 AN ORDINANCE REPEALING AND REENACTING SECTION 8-2-36 OF THE CITY CODE OF IONA, IDAHO, RELATING TO WATER RATE FEES; PROVIDING FOR METHODOLOGY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND ESTABLISHING EFFECTIVE DATE. Council Member Dan Gubler motioned to dispense with the rule requiring the ordinance be read in full and on three separate occasions and that we pass the ordinance on all three readings. Council member Steve Elliott seconded. Roll call as follows: Aye: Council member, Steve Elliott Council member, Jane Shaw Council member, Dan Gubler Nay: None Motion carried. Council member Steve Elliott asked if the ordinance takes effect in July. The Mayor said it did. Mayor Andersen said that the City Attorney was making some revisions to the personnel policy and it would be ready for approval next month. Mayor Andersen talked about Iona Days; he stated that the celebration would be on Friday and Saturday and that the Historical Committee would rather have money donated to their museum than a dinner in their honor. Friday will be a Dutch oven dinner; Council member Shaw contacted Dick Gardner to provide the meal. The Mayor asked Jane to check with Gardner a of couple times before the event to make sure everything was ready. Council member Gubler asked how many chairs to set up, Council member Elliott said about 75 were set up last year. The Mayor told Dan to get in touch with Lion's Club member Tom Hilleshiem to help with the seating. Mayor Andersen said he (the Mayor) was trying to get a movie set up for Friday night in the park. Council member Elliott 2 asked where the movie will be set up because his group will be singing until dark. The Mayor and Council member Elliott agreed that there should not be a conflict between the events. Mayor Andersen asked Adrian Beazer if he was still providing the car show, he said he was. The Mayor listed all of the vending machines and activity booths that were available, and said that the City just needed to find people to run them. The Mayor asked if the Lion's Club had a popcorn machine the City could borrow, Sally Price said there was. Edna Gerard informed the Council that she has been hearing gun shots at night in her neighborhood and is worried. Mayor Andersen said he would have the Code Enforcement Officer look in to the incident. The City Council took a short recess at 7:00 p.m. to attend Betty McKinlay's retirement party. City Council meeting resumed at 7:35 p.m. Mayor Andersen recognized Betty McKinlay during the recess and presented her with a retirement award. The Mayor commented on Betty's accomplishments and thanked her for all her years of service to the City of Iona. The Planning and Zoning Commission gave their report. Jerry Hansen told the Council about the access changes to the new church. The Mayor said that Ryan Loftus was later on the agenda to discuss the matter. Jerry Hansen said that Planning and Zoning made a recommendation for Elissa Hayward to present her request for a conditional use permit to the City Council. Elissa Hayward is requesting a conditional use permit so she can operate a daycare in her home. Elissa Hayward has a public hearing with the City Council on July 1, 2008 at 7:20 p.m. Jerry said the conditional use permit would be for Elissa Hayward only and if she moved, the permit would be revoked. Mayor Andersen said the City of Iona is in the process of updating its daycare policy and that he (the Mayor) is working with the City of Idaho Falls to become more consistent with the regulations. P/Z member Bruce Case suggested that if the permit were issued, perhaps the City should revisit the issue in two or three years. Jerry Hansen also said that P/Z made a recommendation for Larry and Terry Call to present their request for a variance on the front set back of their property to build a 6 foot fence. A public hearing is scheduled for the Call brothers on July 1, 2008 at 7:00 p.m. Mayor Andersen stated that a 6 foot fence in the front was not regulation, and that a 3 foot fence, or a see through 4 foot fence was ok. Council member Gubler asked what the regulation was on the front set back. Public Works Supervisor, Zech Prouse replied that the fence would have to be 35 feet from the front set back in order to be 6 feet high. Mayor Andersen showed P/Z where the ordinance was in the code book regarding fences. The Council and Planning and Zoning discussed the issue about the fence. P/z told Larry and Terry Call that they also needed to get a business license. Jerry Hansen said that the P/Z also gave a recommendation for Colleen Mann to present her request for 5 foot variance on her side set back so she can build a garage. Mann has a public hearing scheduled with the City Council on July 1, 2008 at 7:40 p.m. 3 WA Mayor Andersen read the requirement in the code book for granting a variance which stated that a variance shall not be considered a right or privilege and will only be granted to the applicant if hardship is proven and is not in conflict with public interest. The Mayor stated that this is something that needed to be kept in mind when considering a variance. Mayor Andersen asked Planning and Zoning if they were pursuing set back regulation that would be consistent with the County, Planning and Zoning member Bruce Case said they were and would like to see a 5 foot set back requirement for out buildings and shops instead of a 10 foot set back. Council member Gubler asked P/Z to make a recommendation to the City Council about changing the set back requirements so the code book can be amended. Jerry Hansen said the City should be consistent with issuing permits for variances and conditional use and should enforce the rules more. Mayor Andersen explained the legal aspect involved with following through with violations and said that it takes time to resolve these issues. Public Works Supervisor, Zech Prouse gave his report. Zech presented the bid from Teton Communications for the SCDA system. The Bid was around $25,000.00. Council member Gubler suggested moving forward with the project, everyone agreed. City Clerk, Robyn Keyes gave her report. Robyn asked the Council to bring any information they wanted published in the monthly newsletter in to the City office before the end of each month. The newsletter will be printed on the new water bill monthly. Zech asked if the City can attach a delinquent notice to the bill, Robyn said that was possible. Robyn also commented on the possibility of upgrading the current utility program. Council member Shaw said the utility billing is another reason to consider going with Ammon utility billing. Shaw stated that we could tie into their program. Treasurer, Ron Nelsen, no report. Ryan Loftus, with Aspen Engineering presented the access changes to the new church. Ryan is requesting a second access from Iona Road into the church. The Bonneville Metropolitan area wanted 150 feet between access points on opposite sides of the roads and at least 240 feet between access on the same side of the road. Ryan stated it is possible to meet all those requirements with a dual access on the same side of the road. The current plans only show single access, Ryan is asking for approval to change the plans to show dual access so the contractor can get started on the project. Planning and Zoning requested that the east access be moved 20 feet to the west so it isn't sitting directly on the property line. Ryan said that would be possible. Public Works Supervisor, Prouse asked about sewer connections and Ryan showed Zech where it would be. Council member Gubler asked about storm drainage, Ryan explained the drainage. Mayor Andersen asked if anyone else had a question or concern, no one did. 4 Ryan Loftus is also requesting from the City, permission to run a 2 inch water line from the main system in order to water the landscaping for the church. Ryan showed the Council the difficulty involved with using ditch water and explained that it would be costly and inadequate. Ryan explained that there is only about 1 '/2 acres of lawn to water. Ryan also explained that the church would install a meter onto the system complying with the City's specifications. Ryan said that the church was willing to transfer their water rights with Progressive Irrigation to the City of Iona. Council member Gubler stated that the City had the capacity. Zech asked how many gallons per minute. Ryan replied 52 gallons per minute per zone and only one zone at a time would run. Zech asked how many minute each zone ran, Ryan said 15 to 20 minutes per zone. Council member Gubler stated his concern with the impact of acquiring water rights and the issue of using culinary water for irrigation purposes, and how that might effect the city when it comes time to acquire a new well and the possibility of being denied due to the use of culinary water for irrigation. Mayor Andersen said he had wondered about the same issue and was talking the issue over with Zech. They decided to put meters on businesses and bigger lots so the business can be charged accordingly if they go over the allotted use. Zech asked about the possibility of installing a secondary system now for possible future use. Dan agrees with Zech. Ryan said the church would rather not put out that expense with the uncertainty of its necessity. Zech reminds the Council that the secondary system was part of the development agreement. Ryan said that is why he was there, asking for the change. The Mayor asked what the anticipated time frame was for completion of the church project. Ryan said the contract was for 9 months and that all the outside construction will be completed this summer and fall leaving the interior for the cold weather. Mayor Andersen suggested leaving the plans the way they are now, not installing the 2 inch pipe and meter now and comeback later to install what was necessary. Zech said they can build the church the way they want now and leave themselves the option of coming back to fix what they needed to. Council member Gubler suggests staying with the original agreement of installing a secondary system, Jane agrees with that as well. Mayor Andersen recommended approving the driveway and leaving the water the way it was originally approved so as not to jeopardize the possibility of receiving a grant for upgrading the water system. Zech suggested leaving an auxiliary line to tie into the system if necessary. Council member Steve Elliott also agrees. Mayor Andersen entertained a motion to change the driveway to the church. Council member Dan Gubler made a motion to approve two access driveways into the church property with the exception that the east driveway have a 20 foot set back from neighboring property line. Council member Steve Elliott seconded the motion. The Mayor asked if there was any further discussion, there was not. All were in favor. The motion carried. Mayor Andersen asked Ryan to bring in a letter with the development agreement for the City's records. Ryan said he would bring the letter in. Mayor Andersen asked Roy Hobbs to get with Dan and Zech regarding which windows needed covering up and to discuss the material used to cover up the steps. 5 Mayor Andersen gave his report. The Mayor asked the Council if they all had received the letter Council member Dennis McArthur left, they all had. Council member McArthur was not present at the meeting and left a letter regarding the agenda and his recommendations on the issues. The Mayor asked the Council's opinion on hiring a fulltime police officer. The Mayor said he would see how much the City of Idaho Falls payed a fulltime officer. Council member Gubler said the pay was around $55,000.00 a year for wages and benefits. Gubler stated his concern with paying for training, and then having the person leave. Mayor Andersen said that he had been talking with an Idaho Falls officer that will be retiring in December and might be interested in the position. Council member Steve Elliott suggested hiring a fulltime officer, Council member Jane Shaw agreed. Mayor Andersen said the City will need to take into consideration the money paid to the Bonneville County Sheriff for patrol when our officer is off duty. The Mayor noted that the City of Ucon payed the County $12,000.00 for after hours patrol. Mayor Andersen told the Council that the County had been charging $25.000.00 for patrolling not including animal control and there is a 5% increase this year, which would bring the amount up to over $27,000.00 a year. Mayor Andersen said if the City hired a fulltime officer then the City would have to negotiate a cost for patrol after hours with the Sheriff. Council member Shaw said that the City of Ammon had a sheriff deputy assigned just to Ammon, the City of Iona is paying for a service that only patrols on occasion. Mayor Andersen said he called the County to talk with them, but they were busy and did not return his call. Council member Gubler suggested pursuing a fulltime officer and that would help with some of the planning and zoning issues as well. Mayor Andersen said he was still trying to get estimates on repairing the tennis courts. The Mayor said no one is returning estimates. Council member Gubler suggested putting the issue on next year's budget. The Mayor asked Council member Steve Elliott to follow up on getting a light pole from the power company for the park. Steve said he would. Mayor Andersen asked the Council's opinion on installing a new slide or other play equipment. The Mayor said the cost of a 6 foot slide is $3,000.00. The Mayor also asked if the Eagle Scout that was going to install the exercise equipment along the walking path was following through. Zech said the Scout had made contact with him. The Mayor stated concern with the project not getting done, or being done incorrectly. Zech said that if the Scout didn't get the job done, then Zech would install the equipment. Council member Gubler said he was talking with Kaylynn Resendez about installing a new t- ball/softball field at the north end of the square. Dan suggested that we make an upgrade to something that brings in revenue. Kaylynn had a crew of girls ready to do the work if the City would approve the project. Council member Gubler also wanted to install another drinking fountain closer to the big ball field. Mayor Andersen stated that the little league that played on our field was supposed to pay $5.00 per team per game played; the Mayor said he would look into that payment. Mayor Andersen also stated that the ground under the hexagon climber needed to be bark, like the other equipment. The Mayor asked Council members Shaw and Elliott what their thoughts were on installing a new ball field. Both Council members agreed a ball field would be a good idea. Council member Gubler would work with Kaylynn Resendez to get the project going. The Council approved up to $4,000.00 for the new ball field and a new drinking fountain Gubler also 6 said the people fixing the chain link fencing around the existing ball field would start this Friday with the repairs. Dan said the cost was $300.00 cheaper, the cost is $3,500.00. Council member Gubler asked the Council if they wanted him to pursue the trash pick-up mandate. Gubler said the only company that returned a bid was Grandpa's Trash and that they would charge $10.00 per pick up. Grandpa's would not pick up dumpsters though. Treasurer Nelson asked who would bill for the pick up. Gubler said the City would bill the customer in its utility billing. Ron asked if they would lower the price and do their own billing, Gubler said he didn't think so. The Council discussed the problems with people not paying the bill. Council member Shaw said that if the City bills the trash and water together, then if the bill isn't paid the City could turn off the water. Gubler brings up the point that the cost would be less than the people are paying now and it would eliminate multiple pick up days. Council member Elliott asked how many people in Iona are already with Grandpa's Trash, Gubler said about 80%. The Council agreed Gubler should continue to pursue the project. Mayor Andersen asked Council's opinion about leaving the bathrooms opened until late and taking turns locking up. Robyn suggested leaving the bathrooms unlocked during the day and locking up at 5. Everyone agreed. Mayor Andersen entertained a motion to adjourn. Council Member Elliott made a motion to adjourn. Council member Shaw seconded. Adjourned 9:10 P.M. 7 June 15, 2008 Mayor Andersen and Iona City Council Members, I will be out of town for the next two City Council Meetings; I am assigned to attend a conference next week in Boise for my school job, and Linda and I have been called to serve a short term mission for our church in July. Hence, this letter. First I would like to thank fellow council members and the Mayor for the spirit of cooperation which has allowed us to work on real city issues. We do not always agree about everything, and we shouldn't, but we have been able to put differences behind us when decisions, though sometimes painful, have been necessary for the good of the city. There is a noticeable improvement in relations between the Council and the Mayor than I experienced during my first two years on this Council. The combined wisdom and experiences of this council seem to foster real investigation and decisions based on merit and equal application of ordinances. From the agenda of the June 17th meeting, I am voting to approve the minutes with collective amendments. I have presented my ideas regarding ammendments to the Mayor and the City Clerk. Under items of business, I vote to approve B and C as presented and discussed in a prior meeting. For item C, several people have volunteered to organize a booth or activity to enhance Iona Days: • The Davidson family has agreed to organize a free "Movie in the Park" after the dinner Friday night. • One group has volunteered to provide a face painting booth and cotton candy during the Saturday from 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. • The Stoddard family has volunteered to organize a dunking booth from 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. Mayor Andersen will help them get access to a booth. • I anticipate a few other volunteers during the community planning meeting next Sunday at 6:30 P.M. Regarding item E. a., I need more information to make a decision, but I would approve item E. b. allowing the new church to use city water for both inside and outside usage if they are on a meter and pay for the water they use. Regarding the July council meeting, I understand there are several variance requests. I believe as long as the variance requests are within allowable City ordinances, as long as there are no objections without merit, and as long as the P and Z Committee has investigated to ensure these conditions have been met, a good general rule is to sustain the recommendations of the P and Z Committee. This validates this committees work and mission and allows maximum freedom for City residents. Regarding the application for a variance to allow a day care center and a reduced side setback, if the above conditions are met, I would vote to approve the variance requests for a day care and for a reduced side setback for the shop/garage. I do question the variance request for a tall front fence because I think it violates the shorter front fence ordinance. This supports my position that ordinances should not be waived through the variance process. The variance process is good for individuals and the city collectively when used within City regulations.

2007 City of Iona PWS #7100041 As your back-up licensed drinking water operator and mayor I am pleased to present to you this year's Annual Quality Water Report. 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 523-9112. 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 ls` to December 30, 2007. 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 terms 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/l) - 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 (TT) - (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 1.

We have leamed 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 level for 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 add to 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 at 523-5600 if you have any questions. Sincerely, Brad D.
