Archer recognized Frank Volk and asked him to present his letter and the
signed petitions. Mr. Volk stated that a petition had been widely circulated
through the City in support of Jim Smith and the people expressed their concern
of the activites fo the Council regarding Mr. Smith. The community people
think the Council should act with wisdom. Archer asked that this petition
be made a part of the minutes.
Petition in support of Jim Smith as City Administrator
The undersigned persons are residents of the City of McCall, own real estate
in the City of McCall, own businesses in the City of McCall, reside, own property
or own businesses within the McCall area of City impact, are directly effected
by actions of the City of McCall, or are concerned citizens. It is the purpose
and intent of these petitions to formally request or send a mandate to those
responsible elected City officials that those persons whose names are attached
hereto are in favor of the retention or rehiring of Jim Smith as City Adminis-
trator for the City of McCall.
The undersigned persons feel that Jim Smith has competently represented their
interests, effectively dealt with local government problems, been responsive to
their needs, had a progressive approach to these problems,promulgated progressive
ideas for the community, and has been an outstanding ambassador and representative
for the entire area.
The undersigned further believe that it is encumbent upon elected officials of
the City of McCall to select a direction consistent with their election promises
and further it is necessary that they set forth the responsibilites of a City
Administrator that will permit some consistency in that position and also provide
guidance to Mr. Smith who is an energetic, competent and progressive driving
force for this community.
Since very little public input has been utilized it is the desire of the under-
signed to overwhelmingly demonstrate the views and convictions of the Community.

A letter was read by Smith from the Idaho Public Utilites Commission. Also a
letter was read from John Lewinski, Lab Technician at the Sewage Lagoons, listing
the deficiences at the lagoon.
Archer announced that this was the time and place set for the public hearing
on the request of Lester 0. Peterson for annexation and the proper zoning of the
following described tract of land to wit:
More commonly known as 32 acres west of the City limits off Highway 55 and
directly bordering Boydstun Street on the west, known as Petersen's Viking
Village.
Steve Millemann was present representing Mr. Petersen and Tom Kerr. He gave the
background on what has transpired so far with this request. This project includes
32 acres and it borders the west side of Boydstun Street. This property was
annexed at one time but the previous owner requested that it be deannexed. The
City Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommeded approval of this ann-
exation on March 15, 1983. There was no opposition from the public at this meeting.
Earlier the City Council had three main concerns:
1. Water pressure on the West side of the City was very poor. This is no longer
a concern now that the grant has been accepted by the City for the new water
station, and part of the construction has occured.
2. Access roads from the city streets into the property. The streets in the project
will be private but will be constructed according to city specifications. The
streets will be deeded to the property owners association after the development
is completed.
3. Concern of capacity of what is generally known as the #2 Pump Station, although
it has been renumbered. This pump station was upgraded in 1979 and the capacity
was greatly increased. There has been no over -flow since that time. The present
capacity is 1,120 gallons per minute. The peak load is 970 - 1,000 gallons per
minute. The solution is to increase the Impeller size in the two pumps. It now
has an 111" device and the plan is to increase this to a 12" device. This will
increase the capacity from 1,120 gallons per minute to 1,300 gallons per minute.
The testing on this is to be done before and after the installation of the imp-
ellers so that Chalfant can be assured of increased capacity. Mr. Petersen is
to pay for the entire cost of the installation of the new impellers.
Milleman felt that with the adoption of the new sewer ordinance the City is
properly addressing the problem of the sewer capacity.
Petersen may at some point be envisioning 80 units which is much less that he
is allowed for 32 acres. The units will be presold before they are built, sold
inblocks, and there will be no empty foundations. The maximum request for sewer
connections would be 20 in 1984, depending on the pre -selling. The development
will use water -saving devices. The City over a long period of time stands to
gain substantially in revenue. Over 100 sewer connections that have been issued
by the City have lapsed and would have to be reapplied for. Mr. Petersen does
not feel that he can wait any longer. He needs to begin finalizing his plans
and financing.
Lutes said he felt the City should not jeopardize their position with the Sewer
District by annexing more property that will be requesting sewer hook-ups. The
City should be patient and wait a little longer before annexing this or any other
property.
Crowley and Craig thought the City should move ahead and not be held up by the
decision of the Sewer District.
Smith read the letter Bill Killen had written to the Sewer Sistrict while he has
been working with them on behalf of the City.
Matt Wallace stated he is in favor of going ahead with the annexation.
There was no opposition from the audience. Archer declared the public's part
of this hearing closed. Johnson said she felt this was a quality development
but there are several things that need to be considered, mostly the time element;
1. Grant - water pump not operable
2. Eastside interceptor is at a stalemate
3. Increased city services - Police and Fire departments (What will it cost the
City)
4. Potential residences, adding more
5. City should take care of immediate problems before taking on the burden of
increasing services which will result if the area is annexed.
6. Look at the Capital Improvement Fund
Rio Vista -a developed area, what should the City do about this. More police
and fire people and equipment will be needed.
7. Put this annexation on hold and plan rather than annex this and do it after
the fact.
Crowley said the City does need the Capital Improvement Fund. The first building
of this development will not occur till later in the year. The City is committed
to the Interceptor. The critical issues are being taken care of.
Craig felt that the City needs to look at developments that will be an asset and
the City will have to face the sewer problem, enlarging the lagoon if necessary.
Lutes said he thought that annexing this property at this time will compound the
cost of litigation.
It was moved by Craig that the petersen development be annexed to the City of
115
McCall. This was seconded by Crowley. Upon vote the motion carried with
Craig, Crowley voting AYE and Johnson and Lutes voting Nay. The tie was
broken with Archer voting AYE.
Remaklus was instructed by Archer to write up the ordinance for this annexation.
Archer announced the next order of business is the Geddes rezone ordinance.
Remaklus presented and read at length proposed Ordinance No. 471, and Ordinance
related to Zoning (etc.) It was moved by Lutes and seconded by Craig to suspend
the rules.for passage of proposed Ordinance No. 471. Upon vote the motion
carried unanimously. It was moved by Crowley and seconded by Craig to adopt
proposed Ordinance No. 471. Upon vote Craig, Lutes, Crowley and Johnson voted
AYE. Ordinance No. 471.is duly adopted.
Remaklus noted that since this is in the MCall area of City Impact, the County
will have to adopt a similar ordinance. He has already taken this up with Tom
Lynch, the County Attorney, and given him a copy of this ordinance.
Smith presented a proposal to the Council regarding a Payroll program offered
by the Idaho First National Bank. This is a system where the bank would make
out the payroll, determine annual leave, sick leave and comp time of the employees,
etc, as well as give a breakdown of departments, figure insurance and deductions.
The bank also has a Money Minder program that keeps track of the breakdown of
accounts payable and accounts receivable and the cash flow in each particular
account. The checks would also be signed by machine by a Trust Officer of the
bank and a print out would be given to the City . Smith gave the charges for
these services and had the contract for the City Attorney to review. There
was some discussion on the advantages and disadvantages of this proposal.
Johnson moved to table this proposal for the Payroll Automations Program and the
Money Minder Program to a future date. Lutes seconded the motion. Upon vote
Lutes, Crowley, Johnson and Craig voted Aye. Archer declared the motion passed
unamiously. City Attorney Remaklus was asked to review the contracts and give
his opinion.
The subject of signature cards that need to be signed at the bank was discussed.
Crowley moved to authorize Mayor Archer, Council President Crowley and Acting
City Clerk Smith to sign the signature card, any two of their signatures which
would be required to sign checks for the City. Johnson seconded the motion.
Upon vote Crowley, Johnson, Craig and Lutes voted AYE and Archer declared the
motion passed unanimously.
At the McCall Planning and Zoning Commission meeting of December 6, 1983,the
Commission recommended the approval of the request of Harold Mclvor for a
Special Use permit to allow a Drive -In window in the restaurant on property
that is zoned C-Commercial, at the corner of Boydstun Street and Highway 55.
Standards used in evaluating the application were:
1. Chapter 3-22-4, Chapter 3-22-6 of the City Code
2. Chapter 3-24-4 of the City Code
3. The use of the property is compatable with existing and former uses in the
vicinity.
It was moved by Crowley to uphold the City Planning and Zoning Commission's
recommendation for approval of the Special Use Permit requested by Harold Mclvor.
This was seconded by Lutes. Upon vote Crowley, Lutes, Johnson and Craig voted
AYE. Archer declared the vote unanimous in favor of the Special Use Permit
for Mr. Mclvor.
Smith read a letter from Tom Grote asking that a full report be released regard-
ing the investigation of the Police Department. Johnson said she felt the Council
had very carefully kept to the tone of the recommendations and communication
received from Mr. Christensen and it was adequate and that they had expressed the
full confidence of the communication. Archer said the legal opinion was that this
report is not a public document and the City has no duty to release it. Crowley
stated that certain parts of the document may inhibit effective law enforcement
if released.
A letter from Frank Volk requesting the use of the old depot building for the
headquarters for the Special Olympics to be held in McCall on March 16, 17 and 18
was read. After some discussion it was moved by Crowley that the City allow the
Special Olympics group to use the depot building on March 16, 17 and 18 as well
as days earlier in that week to set up their equipment.
11A
This was seconded by Johnson and upon vote Lutes, Crowley, Johnson and Craig
voted AYE. Archer declared the motion carried unanimous in favor of the use of
the depot building for the Special Olympics headquarters. Liability insurance
for this is covered by the State organization.
Archer stated that this is the time for opening of bids for a Sno-wing for a
grader. Only one bid was received. This bid was from Bill Hardin who bid
$255.00. After some discussion Crowley moved that the City accept the $255.00
bid of Bill Hardin. Johnson seconded the motion and upon vote Crowley, Lutes,
Johnson and Craig voted AYE. Archer declared the motion carried unanimously.
Smith was asked to inform Mr. Hardin that his bid was accepted.
Barry Brightwell has accepted the appointment as County Civil Defense Coordinator
and he feel that McCall needs someone in the community to work with the Civil
Defense program. Brightwell and Smith have both visited with Don Fitzwater
and he has agreed to accept the position of Civil Defense Coordinator position
for McCall. Smith stated that there would be some meetings Fitzwater would have
to attend and these meetings will be paid for by the Civil Defense. The City
needs to approve this appointment as well as the County. After some discussion
on how much time this would involve Crowley moved that the City allow the
appointment of Don Fitzwater as Assistant Civil Defense Coordinator. Johnson
seconded the motion and upon vote Lutes, Craig, Johnson and Crowley voted AYE.
Archer declared the motion carried unanimously.
John Lyon, Chief of Police, gave a report on work output and the general status
of the Police Department.
Lyon said there will be a state partolman in the McCall area on April 1st of this
year. This patrolman will work primarily on the highways. Lyons said he would
like to have a narcotics officer in this area.
There was some discussion regarding Sgt. Larry Olson of the Police Department.
Olson was injured on the job. He receives a check from the Industrial Accident
Insurance which he turns over to the City and the City in turn pays him his usual
salary.
Remaklus read a letter from Bill Killen regarding a meeting with the Water and
Sewer Board on January 6, 1984. Killen recommended that the Mayor and one Council -
member as well as himself be in attendance at that meeting. He also felt that
a meeting prior to that meeting be held. Archer asked for a volunteer from the
Council to attend a meeting Thursday, January 5, at 9:00 A.M. and the meeting
with the Sewer Board at 10:30 on Friday, January 6th at City Hall. Lutes vol-
unteered to attend these meetings and Archer asked if it was agreeable with the
other Council members that Lutes represent them at the meetings. A11 agreed.
Tony Tortorica was present at the meeting and said he would like to give the
Council a proposal on sanitary services inside the city limits and Impact area.
Archer instructed him that when he had the proposal ready to contact Jim Smith
to get on the agenda for City Council meeting.
Johnson said she had read in the Idaho Cities bulletin December 6th issue that
the Council was to have a Street report in by December 15th.. It was to have
been approved by the Council and signed by the Mayor. Also December 9th the
City was required to establish an Ordinance for beer licensed. Remaklus said
he had written an Ordinance for Beer Licenses and had sent it to the City.
This ordinance needs to be passed. Smith said the Streets and Highways users
report was signed by Crowley and sent in to the State.
Mary Benson said she had two questions:
1. What is the status of the Old Mill from the standpoint of safety?
Remaklus said he had been asked to contact Charles McDevitt, and when he
did McDevitt told him he is meeting with the State Historical Society in an
attempt to have them take over the old steam engine and maintain it here in
McCall. At the conclusion of that meeting he will present a written proposal
for the disposition of the building. Chief Lyon said that Mr. Onweiler has
the building sealed, and right now with the snow asdeep as it is there have
been no entries.
Archer asked about the claim against the City and was told it has been turned
over to the City Attorney. Remaklus said there has been no response on it at
this time.
2. Benson said she is confused about the procedure regarding the Mayor's
appointments. She said the Idaho Code requires the Council to ratify the Mayor's
appointments.
117
Archer said there are no ordinances or state laws, according to the research
of the City Attorney, stating that when employment is ended, not on a contract
basis or a year-to-year basis, but on an on -going basis, the mayor can continue
the appointment.
Remaklus said in his research a new appointment by the Mayor takes ratification
by one-half plus one of the Council. For discharge of an appointed official, it
can be done by a unanimous vote of the Council or be discharged by the Mayor with
consent and approval of one-half plus one of the council. Regarding month -to -
month employment, employment continues until a person is discharged. No one has
been discharged, consequently, the employment continues. The termination was
not unanimous. Remaklus read Section 50-206 of the Idaho Code concerning the
removal of an appointed officer. "Any appointive officer may be removed by the
Mayor for any cause by him deemed sufficient. Such removal shall be by and with
the affirmative vote by one-half plus one of the members of the full council pro-
vided that the City by the unanimous vote of all it's members may on their own
initiative remove any appointed officer."
Johnson moved that the Council go into executive session for reasons of personnel.
Crowley seconded the motion. Upon vote Crowley, Johnson, Lutes and Craig voted
AYE. Archer declared the vote carried unanimous in favor of the motion. He also
