Dave Benton from Benton Engineering showed the completed plans for Mountain Ridge Estates Division #4. Council member Steve Elliott came up with some old town names for street names for the subdivision. The Council had not had time to view the plans, as they were brought to Council member Scott Long this afternoon. Mayor Andersen suggested tabling the preliminary plans until next month to make sure it has been annexed into the City and to study the plans. Mike Lund is investigating the sewer problems in the Ashwood Acres. It appears that the sewer line was laid on land that was not compacted. Citizens are complaining of the road. Lynden Kunde will put the road back to specifications. Mike Schreier says something needs to be done with the alley they live on. There is dust caused by the cars going through the alley. City Clerk Betty McKinlay asked for a count of the Council who are going to the AIC Conference in June. No one is going this year. Council member Dennis McArthur is getting the Newsletter ready to deliver. Council meeting for July will be earlier because of vacations. It will be either July 1 lth or 13th . Everyone was asked to look at their calendars and Betty will check with them. Mayor Andersen reviewed the Law Enforcement Contract. Works Supervisor Zech Prouse is looking into dog control. The City is looking at maybe splitting the cost with Ucon for police protection. Sheriff Stommel even mentioned going that way. The BMPO Meeting is Wed. at 3:30. The Mayor asked if Council member Steve Elliott could go. He will try to. Mayor Andersen said he had received three bids on lawn care. Robyn Keys sent in a bid for $250/month for cleaning, improving and spraying. She is licensed. Council member Scott Long suggested getting a copy of her insurance and license for spraying. Mayor Andersen said he has asked her to do the mowing. Well #3 was discussed. The Council needs to decide if they want to do anything with it. We have water rights. We11 #3 will be a good thing to have up and running if there is an emergency. Mayor Andersen suggested seeing if it is useable and budget for a variable speed on the main well. Council member Clip Holverson thought we ought to get the Water Study done first. Mayor Andersen asked for a motion to go ahead and spend up to $2,500 to see about Well #3. Council member Scott Long motioned to spend up to $2,500 and Council member Steve Elliott seconded. All were in favor. Council member Scott Long discussed the visit he had with John Wiskus, Project Manager from CH2M Hill on Iona's Water Study. Reducing the streets to 60' instead of 70' was discussed for future subdivisions. Council member Scott Long suggested letting the Planning and Zoning Committee look into it. It was tabled for now. The slide and merry-go-round in the park will be taken out. They are not safe. Council member Steve Elliott is looking into new equipment for the park. Mayor Andersen said he and the Youth Committee painted the lines on the basketball court in the park. The Committee would like to do a service project. Maybe paint the fence around the Square. Mayor Andersen asked Council member Dennis McArthur to work on the Comprehensive Plan. Dave Huntsman has volunteered to help. The fence over by the new shop was discussed. Council member Scott Long said he has not been able to get a hold of Mr. Taysom about ideas on the fence. Scott said he wants the fire truck to stay in Iona and not Rexburg. Rexburg had asked if we would like to store the truck in the museum in Rexburg. Scott mentioned that his son's home had been broken into in during the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 12:00 P.M. Broad daylight. Council member Steve Elliott met with Ross and Zech, Public Works Supervisor and he can't see why the restrooms can't be opened up. Steve will work on getting them usable. Sealing the Tennis Court was discussed. Council member Scott Long will check with Craig Rockwood and see who does Idaho Falls Tennis Courts. Scott also asked about the "I" on the hill and getting it painted. It will be done, hopefully by the Youth Committee or an Eagle Scout project. Council member Dennis McArthur is getting complaints from people about dogs and trashy yards. He was wondering about enforcing the policy. The Council discussed Zech being the code enforcer. Dennis also suggested giving a "Welcome Packet" and our Code etc. to new people moving in. Council member Clip Holverson was approached about the mail boxes. There are pros and cons to the issue. Council member Scott Long said it would make no sense to have mail boxes until we get curb and gutter. The table in the Council room was set different for this meeting and Council member Clip Holverson said he liked it set this way. Dave Benton discussed his preliminary plan for Division #4. He thinks everything is okay and feels he has all the information required. Mayor Andersen said the council needs to take time to look at it before approving it and it was tabled until next month.
