A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF MCCALL, IDAHO RELATING
TO WATER SERVICE; FINDING THAT CERTAIN WATER MAIN
REPLACEMENTS ARE ORDINARY AND NECESSARY TO PUBLIC
HEALTH AND SAFETY; FINDING THAT COMPLETING THE
MAIN REPLACEMENTS AS A SINGLE PROJECT IS THE MOST
ECONOMICAL AND PRACTICAL; FINDING THAT WATER

THE MAIN REPLACEMENTS IN A SINGLE INSTALLMENT; AND
APPROVING THE USE OF LEASE-PURCHASING FINANCING
WITH WEST ONE BANK, IDAHO, N.A. TO FINANCE THE
SAID WATER MAIN REPLACEMENTS.
WHEREAS, the City of McCall, Idaho has engaged professional
engineers, to wit: J-U-B Engineers, Inc. , to evaluate the
City' s water system. The said engineers completed their
evaluation and published their findings in the form of a
Water Master Plan which was approved and adopted by the
City Council, December 1989 and amended August 1990 : The
following water main replacements were a part of the
recommendations of the engineers in the said Water Master
Plan --as. necessary to -provide safe drinking water in
--- -- sufficient quantity and at sufficient pressure for public
consumption and for fire fighting:
1 : Mission Street - - Replace 1240 feet of 6-inch and
8-inch water mains with 10-inch water main. This main
will provide adequate fire flows to the McCall-Donnelly
Elementary and High schools .
2 . Deinhard Land and Thula Street - Replace 2450 feet of
4-inch water main with 8-inch water main.
3 . Thula Street and Flovde Street - Replace 700 feet of
4-inch water main with 8-inch water main.
4 . Flovde Street to Sampson Trail - Replace 667 feet of
6-inch water main with 8-inch water main. Items 2, 3 and 4
above will provide adequate water for fire fighters at the
McCall Care Center, a nursing home.
5 . Third Street, Timm Street to Colorado Street - Replace
1277 feet of 2-inch water main with 6-inch water main.
This replacement will provide fire protection for a number
of businesses & offices along Highway 55 .
•
WHEREAS the lowest and best bid for the above main
replacements was submitted by Brown Construction Company of
Caldwell, Idaho in the amount of $354,588 and an additional
cost of $70,000 is anticipated for engineering
services .
WHEREAS West One Bank, Idaho, N.A. has tentatively agreed
to finance the main replacements and engineering costs
herein described at an annual rate of 7 .2% for seven years .
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
OF MCCALL, IDAHO as follows:
Section 1 : That maintenance and operation of a
water system is an ordinary service provided by cities .
When a city elects to provide that service, it requires
maintenance and operation so as to protect the health of
the public' s drinking water supply, as mandated by the
United States Government in the adoption of the Safe
Drinking Water Act of 1974 and, whereas fire flows are
evaluated by the Idaho Survey and Rating Bureau for
adequate for providing water to a conflagration and these
mains have been identified as inadequate to that demand,
therefore, these main replacements are deemed ordinary and
necessary expenses to protect the public health and safety.
Section 2 : That the water main replacements herein
described are most economically and practically completed
as a single project.
Section 3 : That the accumulated service fees from
prior fiscal years and anticipated service fees for the
current fiscal are not sufficient to finance the water main
replacements herein described and that increasing service
fees by an amount sufficient to finance these replacements
would unduly burden the City' s water customers .
Section 4 : That lease-purchase option agreement
with West One Bank, Idaho, N.A. at an annual interest rate
7 .2% for seven (7) years be, and it is hereby approved to
finance an ordinary and necessary replacement expense of
the City' s water system.

PASSED AND APPROVED this l� dray of September 1991 .
