Putting the new logo on envelopes, hats, T-shirts and a flag was discussed. Council member Brad Andersen asked if the Civil Defense Committee was still having meetings. Mayor Rockwood said he would call Linda Evenson and see if she still wants to head the committee. Council member Andersen asked about the City putting some sand underneath the swings, slide and carousel for the kids. He also noticed the metal plate in the log by the basketball court is pulled out and could be a hazard. Council member Andersen also mentioned that Roger Andersen was wondering if the Council had made any decision on the building inspector. Mayor Rockwood handed out the current agreement with the County. We can get out of the agreement with the county, but do we really want to. There is growth in our City right now, but we may not have growth later on. We may not be able to get back into the agreement. Ammon and Ucon tried it with a building inspector and went back with the county. The delinquent water billing process was discussed. The fellow who wanted the posts in the arena has taken them out now. We can get going on the ground.

DAYS IN JULY IONA PARK COMMITTEE Council member Cliff Long has agreed to chair the Iona Park Committee to discuss options for development and improvement of the City Park. The first meeting was held on April 26th at the Community Center. The City believes our Iona Park, fondly known as "The Square" is an important part of our community and the committee's goal is to provide the City with a master plan for the continued de- velopment and improvement of our park. This will not only protect the heritage and personality, but will also serve as a blueprint for the continued maintenance and future development of the facil- ity. Our resources are limited so we will be exploring ways to raise additional funds or donated la- bor and materials. items up for discussion include walking paths, construction or remodeling of rest - room facilities, replacement of sprinkler system, adding a picnic shelter and relocating the City com- pound. If you are interested in helping this committee or have ideas or comments, please contact Betty McKinlay at the Community Center — 523-5600.

Box 487 Iona, Idaho 83427 May 18, 2000 TOPIC: RURAL MAIL DELIVERY FROM THE IONA POST OFFICE ERIC SENEFF 4523 RIRIE HWY IDAHO FALLS, ID 83401 Dear Iona Area Resident, Phone: (208) 523-5600 Fax: (208) 535-0087 The City of Iona is currently looking at the feasibility of having rural mail delivery made available from the Iona Post Office. Rural rfalivery if desired, would bo made available to the .o_idcot^ ^f tho.ri±y',nor?.?.nr_t to surrounding area residents. Why are we doing this? 1) To maintain our community Identity: An important part of maintaining a community identity is providing all residents with addresses reflecting the community in which they live. Currently however, many residents in and near the city of Iona have Idaho Falls addresses. The Idaho Falls Post Office has extended delivery routes into these areas because the Iona Post Office currently does not provide rural delivery. 2) To secure our local post office: We feel the expansion of the Idaho Falls postal delivery routes into the City of Iona and the surrounding "area of impact' presents a very real threat to the longevity of our local post office. We feel having a post office in the city of Iona is important to all of us who live here. Losing our local post office would mean driving to the Idaho Falls Post Office on 4'h Street to buy stamps, to pick up a package or to mail a letter. The services provided to our community by our Post Office are too important to lose. 3) To extend local lona postal services and addresses to a greater number of people. By providingrural mail delivery from the Iona Post Office, individuals near the city who currently receive service from Idaho Falls and have Idaho Falls addresses, would be changed to receive mail delivery from the Iona Post Office and would be given Iona addresses. These individuals would no longer have to drive to Idaho Falls to pick up a package that would not fit in their box. They would instead pickup the package in Iona. We would appreciate.your feedback on this proposal. Please complete the attached survey and return it in irte enclosed self addressed, stamped envelope by May 31, 2000. Thank you! The Mayor and City Council Complete, detach, and return in the provided envelope. ERIC SENEFF - 6625 ❑ Yes, I like the idea and would like to have service from the Iona Post Office. I like my existing Idaho Falls address and don't feel a need to change. ❑ I'm not sure, have someone contact me with more information.
