An increase in water connection fees was discussed at the Work Meeting Jan. 25tn
Council member Don Holverson asked what the reasoning was for raising connection
fees. Mayor Rockwood said by raising the fee we can set aside funds to put into a new
well or repair the water tank. Mayor Rockwood asked the Council to consider raising the
water connection fee to an amount more in line with the current costs to expand, repair,
and update our current water system. He also provided comparable rates of neighboring
communities but stressed that was not the reason to approve an increase. The Council
established a new fee as follows:

CITY OF IONA
State of the City Address
By Mayor Craig Rockwood
February 15, 2005
It is hard to believe that another year has flown by and we are again meeting to
discuss the State of the City. The fast pace of today's living leaves little time for
reflection, so hopefully for the next couple of minutes we can relax and reflect on a few
of last years accomplishments. Before we do let me take a minute and personally thank
the City Council members Brad, Dave, Scott, and Don and our city employees, Betty,
Ron and Ross, for the outstanding work and service you have rendered to this
community. Your service has been a light to this community, not only for the past year,
but throughout your careers. The impact of growth on your jobs for one year may not
seem significant but when you look at the accumulative growth of several years it can be
almost overwhelming. Just look at our budget as an example. In 1987 the City's total
budget was approximately $131,588, compare that with last year's budget of $538,164
and you begin to see the scope of change we are experiencing. In 1987 we had one full
time employee and two part time employees, today we have the same. Our employees
and elected officials have done a great job dealing with the reality of running this
growing community despite the budgetary constraints and other complex issues we have
dealt with.
Even by our standards 2004 was a very busy year. Several of the projects we
completed were very time consuming but the effect on our community both physically
and aesthetically have been remarkable and will be long lasting.
The completion of the Idaho Transportation Department Enhancement Project has
been a long time coming but it turned out far better than anyone imagined. Thanks to a
$150,000 State grant this $180,000 total project provided for the widening of several
miles of city streets. The increased width allowed us to add a dedicated bicycle and
pedestrian pathway along both sides of Iona Road and most of Main Street on the south
end of town. This project has made it much safer for pedestrians, especially school
children, and cyclists to get from one end of town to the other. The State of Idaho District
Six Transportation Department administered the project and H & K Construction was the
main contractor. They both did an outstanding job. We also thank Ross Johnson for doing
a great job overseeing the City's interests on this project.
Last summer we also completed another major tree planting project. This project
consisted of the planting 45 new trees, the installation of a tree watering system, and the
installation of a "Welcome to Iona" sign. Funding for this project was provided mostly
from a State Department of Lands grant of approximately 16,000 dollars. Under the
watchful eye of Kathy DeMott, Iona Tree Committee Chairman, Gerry Bates, State of
Idaho Forester, and Scott Long, council member, volunteers planted about 40 trees on
city property along the south and west sides of the school soccer fields along Denning
Avenue and Main Street. Bonneville School District joined us in the project by paying to
extend the automatic sprinkler system to their soccer fields. This system will save the
City thousands of gallons of water each year. The students and teachers of Iona
Elementary School also participated in this project by celebrating "Arbor Day" and
helping to plant the trees. This project also included the removal of several dying
Cottonwood trees in the park and replacing them with a new variety of tree. Part of the
project funds were used to purchase a "Welcome to Iona" sign. This sign will be
"permanently" installed next spring at the corner of Iona Road and Main Street. This
project was a perfect example of a current generation doing something that will be
enjoyed by and benefit future generations.
Last summer we completed our two year street seal coating project with major
repairs being made to Scoresby Avenue. The narrow right-of-way along Scoresby
Avenue makes it difficult to deal with drainage problems but the City is committed to
continue to work with the residents in this area to solve the problem.
The City continues to grow. Many new homes were built on existing lots and
several new additions (the Rockwood Addition and Homer Estates) totaling about 25
acres were added.
Last year we also received two very prestigious awards from the State of Idaho.
The first was the USA Tree City Award. This award is given to cities who meet several
criteria which indicate a concerted effort by the community to establish a long term
forestry program. Several of the criteria we have met include the establishment of a
"Community Tree Committee", the passage of a city tree ordinance, the observance of
"Arbor Day", the successful planning and completion of tree planting projects, the
establishment of a tree maintenance program, and a commitment to maintain a certain
level of funding for the community forestry program. The other prestigious award
received by the City at last years Association of Idaho Cities annual conference was the
"Idaho Heritage City Award". This award has only been awarded to a handful of Idaho
cities. The award recognizes cities who meet several criteria related to the preservation of
a community's history and heritage. The award also recognized our efforts to educate,
preserve and promote the values of our rich heritage. To a large extent the main reason
we received this award was because of the efforts of the Iona Historical Committee who
researched and published the Iona Centennial Book in 1983 and is now working to
publish a second edition which details Iona' history since 1983. We recognize and thank
those who have worked on and with the committee for their unselfish efforts to create
these priceless documents.
We look forward to the coming year. We know it will be a year of challenges as
we deal with the problems created by the new growth that is heading our way. Solving
the States complicated water rights issues will be a top priority for all communities.
Despite the challenges we will also see many accomplishments. Working together as a
community I know we can make Iona's future as bright as it's past.
Thank you.
8-2-10: INSPECTION OF PREMISES: Free access for inspection shall,
upon such reasonable notice as the circumstances permit, be allowed to all persons
authorized by the City to enforce the provisions of this Chapter, to all places supplied
with water from the City water system.
8-2-1.1: PERMITS AND SERVICE CONNECTION FEES: It shall be
unlawful to install, alter or connect any water service within the City to any water line
within the City without first obtaining a permit from the City and paying the service
connection fees set forth in this chapter. Applications for water service shall be
made at the office of the City Clerk. The customer shall be responsible for all costs
to install the service line and to repair damage to the street or any other public
facilities caused by such connection.
8-2-12: EXTENSION OF WATER MAINS WITHIN CITY: The Water
Department or the City Council may extend water mains within the City at City
expense whenever, in their sole discretion, such extension is necessary for the
health, welfare or safety of the residents of the City, provided however nothing
herein shall require that such extension be made at City expense. The City may
require any customer desiring water service to install at the customer's expense a
water main along the entire frontage of such customer's property.
8-2-13: EXTENSION OF WATER MAINS OUTSIDE CITY: Water mains
shall not, without the approval of the Council be extended outside the corporate limits
of the City, unless adequate excess water is available for such service. Such
agreements shall specifically reserve the right to terminate such service without
cause at any time upon at least thirty (30) days advance written notice.
8-2-14: WATER SYSTEM CONNECTION FEES:
(A) Purpose. The purpose of this section is to establish an equitable system of
charging a new customer for the impact or burden created whenever the
customer enlarges an existing water service or connects a new water service
to the City water system, including existing wells, storage tanks, pumps,
outbuildings and appurtenances of the City water system, all of which were
funded from revenues of the City water system or paid with revenues derived
from ad valorem taxes. The City recognizes the inherent inequity of requiring
existing customers or taxpayers to bear the entire cost of acquiring or building
new facilities, or of utilizing excess capacity with existing facilities, in order to
meet the needs of such new development. The Council hereby finds and
recognizes the relationship between the nature of the uses of property and the
impact thereof upon the City water system. The Council also finds that
customers who connect to a water main located adjacent to their property
receive a direct benefit from such water mains, which benefit is directly
proportional to the frontage of the water main along their property. The
Council further finds that it is fair and equitable to charge a main connection
fee for customers who connect to such mains in order to fund a portion of the
cost incurred by the City in installing such mains.
(B) Water System Connection Fees. A water system connection fee shall be
collected from any person requesting connection to the water system for any
new building or structure or for any existing building for which a change in
occupancy or use, as defined under Section 502 of the Uniform Building
Code, is made and for which a new or larger water service line is installed.
Such system connection fee shall be as follows:
Size of Service Line Fee
1" $ 600Of
1.5" 800
2" 2,000
4 0 9,920 6/,
6" 22,320 )
8" 39,680 tkV iwv
\f)
(C) Main Connection Charge. Before connecting to any water main, all persons
shall pay, in addition to th system connection fee, a main connection charge
at the rate of ten dollars ($10) per front foot of property to be served by a
water main. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any person has constructed at
his or her own expense the water main to which connection is sought, no fee
