Council member Scott Long asked what the sunset date would be for these modulars. Mr. Hill said that was a good question. He hoped that two years would be the extent of it. The plan is to go out for a Bond probably this fall in order to build one or two schools. If growth continues they would come back and ask for an extension. He is hoping for two years maybe three.

In the annexation a year ago, we had a public hearing. Mr. McIntire voiced his opinion. The Rockwood's are working with him in selling him property and something is being done in the future. Mayor Andersen asked the Rockwood's to consult with an engineer. Darla Christensen would like to move their property line one foot over to accommodate a cement pad to put their trailer on. They are building a new home in the Ashwood Acres. One side would be 9" and the other would be 10". Council member Scott Long asked if she had talked to her neighbor. Mrs. Christensen said she didn't think she would care. The Council asked her to bring in a letter from her neighbor. Which she did before the meeting was over. The Council had no problem with it.

He said that we need to look at the frontage etc. The Council asked if one of the streets could be named after the Weigel family who had seven sons serve in the War. Council member Steve Elliott will look into names for the streets. The Council asked for a more concise drawing of the development. Justin Biggs who lives in the Homer Estates next to the new shop is concerned about the road that is on 3 feet of his property. He is willing to give up the property if he can put up a fence. A sidewalk was discussed. Mr. Biggs does not like the shop light shining in his window and was wondering if it could be moved or put in a motion light. The Council will discuss these concerns. Joyce Kunde came in late after the Public Hearing on the School Dist. putting the 3 modulars at the school. She asked about the easement on their property line. She was okay with it. Bob Brady wants to put a duplex or triplex behind the existing apartments on Main Street. Mayor Andersen said we need to look at the square footage there.

The City will provide the facility and would like to extend into the museum room and maybe make it a museum/Library. We will keep the one employee and maybe get two more. We can set the hours. If it does not work we will keep our books etc. and go back to the way we were. Mr. Wright will go ahead and write up a contract. Council member Clip Holverson motioned to tentatively agree becoming a branch with a contract in hand. Council member Dennis McArthur seconded. All were in favor.

It costs $95.00 for sidewalks, $90.00 for the parking lot and Arts building. It is $10.00 extra for ice melt. It is $350/week for mowing or $380 for mowing and spraying and he charges for product only. There has not been a contract, just verbal. Mayor asked if we wanted to get other bids.

So, I would like all of you to think about what it is you like best about the City of Iona, some of it's assets. Some of the things that come to my mind are the great old trees. I love the big old trees we have here, it's home to me. I also think of the Square. I spent a lot of time playing there as a kid and I find myself there often as an adult with my own children. The other great places I appreciate are the library, the community center and the art gallery. Now let's think for a minute of some of the worst things about the City of Iona. I had to think about this for a while, there's not much I don't like about our city. But some of the things I thought of were pedestrian safety. Many people like to go for walks around the neighborhood and most of the children walk to school. I also thought of some of the trashy properties and over grown, seemingly unattended areas. And those pesky mosquitos. When I got the go ahead to install this park last fall, a committee was formed and a grant for the trees was applied for and we understood work was to begin covering the ditch with this spring and Arbor Day as a target date for the tree planting and installation of the irrigation system. Then we would add the grass, path and fence throughout the summer. Winter came upon us fast last fall and seems to be lingering on this spring. So the ditch was just covered last week. But now I'm told that the park will need to be completed in installments as the funds become available with the implication of not knowing how long that will take. The problem I see with this plan is if we plant the trees this spring we can't wait until later this summer of possibly next year to water them. And, it doesn't make sense to me to pay to have the ditch covered and the land graded this year then let erosion undo what's been done and allow mud and noxious weeds to envelop the land making it a fire hazard and by late summer impassable for the school children. The weeds for the last couple of years got taller than the children. Construction waste has been dumped there and last summer an abandoned truck sat there for at least 3 months. So, then we have one of those worst places in Iona. A trashy property, seemingly overgrown and unkept and city owned. It wouldn't take much to turn that into one of those best places in Iona. We have a team of volunteers ready and donations waiting. Trees and parks are cues of caring and quality. They are a wise investment in our city. 1 tree absorbs 101bs. of pollutants, they help reduce run-off and flooding and increase property value. Towns and neighborhoods that have abundant trees and manicured public areas have lower levels of domestic violence and property crimes. Neighborhoods are safer and more social able. State law requires local governments to develop a comprehensive plan. These plans aren't ordinances but rather guidelines, framework, blue prints for the communities growth- where do you want to be in 5, 10, 20 years from now? The city is obligated to provide safety and risk management for our citizens. Which in this case the majority are school children. By understanding the whole vision of what the end result will be for this park, you are addressing these issues. We are asking you to support our volunteer organization. This is not just about getting rid of the weeds and mud but about an investment in ow- cty's safety and beautification. It's about creating one of those best places. We need the City's commitment and support; You need to make a decision to either allocate some money now for this project or we need to forfeit ow- grant because the Tree Committee and the Park Committee can't move ahead under the existing conditions. If we forfeit our grant we run a great risk of not being awarded any futw-e grant tlu-ough the U.S. Department of Lands. Our City has a lot of growth in it's future.
