BUSINESS REPORTS Page 2 of 4 May 8, 2003 City Council Minutes Council Members appreciated the format of the new consolidated report. Council Member Arp asked about two apparently illegal signs that have been brought to her attention by citizens. Lindley Kirkpatrick is aware of the two signs and has been working with the property owners. He stated that the McCall Quick Lube has apparently obtained an easement from the Airport Self Storage property owner to place the Quick Lube sign on the Airport Self Storage property. Mr. Kirkpatrick stated that the sign is legal based on his interpretation of the Ordinance. Council Member Arp asked the City Manager to examine the possibility of changing the City ordinances to more clearly define the intent of the signage requirements and eliminate any "gray areas." The Council did not object to Mr. Kirkpatrick's interpretation that an easement granted to McCall Quick Lube brought the sign into compliance. Other Council Members agreed that the sign ordinance needs to be more clearly defined and that this issue can be rolled into the comprehensive rewrite of the zoning codes. The City Manager will get a legal review to determine if a rewrite is needed. Council Member Arp asked that the Mayor write a letter to all City employees to extend thanks to City employees for their strong work since this is Government Employee Appreciation Week. Mayor Colton noted that there are still a few parcels of land that we have not acquired for the Deinhard Lane extension and that he is still working with Lindley Kirkpatrick and the property owners to negotiate settlements. He also requested that Council Members provide their evaluations of the City Manager as soon as possible. Golf Professional Allan Morrison provided a brief overview of the Marketing Plan that he provided to the Council tonight. Council Members expressed support for the plans and suggested that the Professional continue to adjust the spending based on conversations with the golfers this summer. Several major Boise Valley employers have been contacted with an offer of a 15% discount on Monday through Thursday golfing and cart rentals. The relationship with the New Meadows Golf Course Professional is strong and they are working on some joint tournament or usage activities. He is also working on a joint venture with the new Holiday Inn working with range balls and time, transportation to the Golf Course from the hotel, course advertising in the hotel and the purchase of fully pre -paid golf certificates. ADJOURNMENT Without further business, Mayor Colton moved to adjourn. Council Member Arp seconded the motion. All Council Members voted aye. The motion carried. The Council adjourned at 7:40 p.m. Page 3 of 4 May 8, 2003 City Council Minutes Ralph C61ton, Mayor ATTEST: ,D Q� Barbara Bauer, Finance Director/City Clerk Page 4 of 4 May 8, 2003 City Council Minutes
