CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING
WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
OCTOBER 12, 2017 — 7:00 P.M.
IONA COMMUNITY CENTER
PRESENT: Mayor Brad Andersen, Council President Dan Gubler, Council Member Rob Geray,
Council Member Dan Garren, Council Member Kathy McNamara, City Clerk Shara Roberts,
Public Works Director Zech Prouse, Public Works Laborer Bryce Stucki, and Officer Dustin
Mathie.
ABSENT: Chief of Police Karl Bowcutt.
VISITORS: Dana Andersen, Shane Williams, Deb Sorenson, Dee Johnson, Dennis & Linda
McArthur, Rod & Susan Gardner, Reid Hymas, Pam Theriault, Mike Thompson, Bruce &
Merodene Case, Dale & Janet Steele, Susan Moon, John Burnham, Dustin Haderlie, Devin
Rowley, Brent Terry, Sally Price, Jacob Goss, Ron & Sue Ulbrich, Mike & Louise Bryan, Emily
Downey, Darla Reed, and Steven Reed.
Discussion of Water System Improvement Project: Mayor Andersen expressed the purpose of
the meeting is to discuss needed improvements to the City's water system.
Engineer Paul Scoresby explained that the City has been considering improvements to the City's
water system since approximately 2004 when an engineer firm was hired to do an evaluation of
the overall condition and performance of the system. In 2008 a second study was initiated, and a
capital improvements plan was developed.
The City has done some of these improvements through the years using capital improvement
funds out of the water fund. Two of the major improvements accomplished were
recommissioning well #3 and rehabilitating the existing storage tank on the hill. Mayor Andersen
noted smaller improvements which have also included the installation of a backup diesel
generator and initiating a fire hydrant replacement program throughout the City. He explained
previous engineering studies expressed concerns that the hydrants were so outdated there could
be a potential difficulty connecting to them to access water in case of a fire emergency.
He further expressed in terms of capacity the water system is at times exceeding daily demand
limits contained in the City's water rights. During the hot summer months all the wells are being
used at full capacity and if one was to go down residents wouldn't be able to water their lawns as
they have been accustomed to doing. The Council would have to potentially look at a mandatory
watering schedule as other jurisdictions have had to implement. The City has reached a point
where they have done what they can with the funds available, but now they are looking for
approval for a revenue bond to resolve these concerns and set the City up for many more years of
service.
Council President Gubler asked Engineer Paul Scoresby to discuss in more detail the scope of
work the City Council is proposing.
1
Mr. Scoresby reviewed question #2 and question#3 in the informational handout, "Exhibit A"
which outlines a breakdown of the scope of work. He explained this project would consist of
constructing a new 1 million gallon storage tank and upgrading the transmission line to 16
inches. He also mentioned that the proposed project scope includes the construction of a new
well and a generator that would improve redundancy in case one of the other wells goes down.
Ted Hendricks with East-Central Idaho Planning & Development Association (ECIPDA) next
addressed the financing of the project. He explained his role is to analyze similar communities
with similar projects and determine what the project will cost to considering current trends in
constructions costs.
He reported the City of Iona qualifies for funding assistance in the form of a 30 year low interest
3% loan through the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The citizens have the
opportunity to vote during the revenue bond election which is scheduled for Tuesday, November
7th, 2017 to either authorize or disallow the City to borrow the money to fund this project. This
would require a simple majority vote to pass.
He further explained if the bond passes, it would result in an estimated increase of $19.00 per
household in the monthly water bill. As more homes or users come into the community the rate
could go down. The other thing that may impact the overall cost of the project depends is
whether the construction bid comes in lower than they are anticipating.
Mr. Hendricks reported additional funding could become available through the Army Corp of
Engineers. For example, the City of Driggs is in the middle of a similar water system
improvement project and just received $600,000 to go towards funding their project. If such
additional funds are acquired, the monthly increase would likely go down.
Mayor Andersen explained that when the scope of work was considered, the cost was based upon
a worst case scenario and didn't take into consideration any other additional funding that could
lower the overall cost of the project and thereby decrease the monthly impact upon each
resident's water bill.
Council Member Garren noted that over the course of the last few years the Council has
discussed potential solutions to the City's water system problems and that the Water Committee
at one point suggested water meters to curb consumption. He believes it's worth noting this
project doesn't include water meters, and the reason the Council put together this particular
scope of work was based on the water studies conducted and feedback received from a city wide
survey conducted this last Spring. He further expressed this option appeared to be the most
popular course of action based on the responses they received.
Mayor Andersen expressed the City has done what they were able to do within the yearly budget,
but when it comes to the big tickets items such as the ones they are discussing tonight there is not
enough funding to get the water system where it should be. He then opened up the meeting for
questions and comments from the public.
2
Citizen Michael Thompson inquired how much backup would the generator provide in the case
of a power outage. Mr. Scoresby explained the minimum requirement from the State is you have
to have 8 hours of backup plus fire flow. The new tank would ensure the City would have all the
fire flow needed.
Mr. Thompson also inquired how many homes the water system currently services. Director
Prouse estimated the number of connections to be approximately 850. He further inquired how
many homes would be able to be to add to the system and asked if the proposed expansion would
serve the City for another 20 years. Mr. Scoresby expressed in terms of storage capacity the City
may have to add another well in roughly 30 years based on past and present growth rates.
However, this project will set the City's water system up for quite some time.
Council President Gubler expressed when the City Council established the scope of work for this
project they didn't look at it from an aspect of how long it would allow the City to grow, but
rather from a point of fixing the problem which already exists in the system and to allow citizens
to continue enjoying what they have. The major focus comes down to pump capacity because
during the summer months during peak hour demand the City is exceeding the legal amount they
are allowed to pump. The construction of a new storage tank will help alleviate this issue going
forward.
Citizen Emily Downey expressed the Council has spent a lot of time putting together this project,
and she is interested to know which members of the Council and Mayor support the passing of
this bond.
Mayor Andersen responded they are unanimously behind moving forward with this project, and
wouldn't have made decisions to pursue it further if they hadn't been in agreement. However, the
citizens of this community will have the opportunity to make the final decision.
Council Member McNamara expressed she believes there are things that will come into play
which will allow the City to pay off the loan faster and she hopes people will realize these are
improvements that need to be accomplished and further expressed she was supportive of the
bond.
Council Member Garren explained this project has been in the works since about 2004 and had
the City elected to take care of it earlier the construction costs would have been lower than they
are now. If the City elects to push this off for a few more years constructions costs will continue
to rise.
Council President Gubler reported about 4 years ago the City missed an opportunity for a 0%
interest loan, but at the time there wasn't support for completing the project. As a result the City
will pay 3% on top of the increased construction costs. He further expressed it's one of those
situations where the sooner the project is completed the less it's going to cost in the overall
scheme of things.
3
Citizen Jon Burnham expressed he would like to know a breakdown of the costs of each item
under the scope of work. Specifically what is the estimated cost of the new storage tank. Council
Member Geray responded it is estimated in the scope of work at approximately $1,000,000. Mr.
Burnham inquired what the approximate cost of the construction of the new well and generator
is. Mr. Scoresby responded it is roughly estimated at $500,000.
Mayor Andersen noted when the scope of work was designed they planned for a worst case
scenario so they factored in costs for constructing under lava rock, under the railroad tracks, and
canals so the numbers are estimated on the higher end.
Council President Gubler informed Mr. Burnham they would make this document available in
the City office and on the City website which would help answer some of Mr. Burnham's
questions.
Mr. Burnham shared concerns with the Council metaphorically they consider buying the fully
loaded Chevy instead of a $60,000 Cadillac, meaning he hopes the Council will take into
consideration getting the project done without unnecessary frills to ultimately lower the cost of
the revenue bond and the impact that will have on monthly water bills.
Council Member Geray explained the City Council is certainly not trying to buy the Cadillac of
anything. They have always done business conservatively in each department and across the
board when it comes to managing the City's budget and they are taking the same approach when
it comes to this particular project. He further broke down the summary page of the scope of work
for Mr. Burnham to help answer his concerns and questions.
Council President Gubler explained the only thing they have included in the scope of work as a
"frill" so to speak is increasing the dimeter of the transmission line to hopefully offset potential
future growth. He further explained the cost to install a pipe in the ground is the same regardless
of the size of pipe chosen. However, the City Council opted to pay for the larger diameter pipe of
16 inches instead of 10 inch pipe which currently exists. This will attach to the City's water
system in three different locations and collectively add a lot more volume and pressure to the
existing system.
Citizen Dennis McArthur expressed his gratitude to the City Council and the Mayor for
scheduling this meeting to hear what the project consists of and what it will cost.
Citizen Ron Ulbrich inquired if the Council has considering only adding more pump capacity
and the transmission line without building the tank.
Council President Gubler responded they did consider that option, but collectively they agreed
the tank would provide better performance for fire flow in the future.
Council Member Geray further explained the project is also about reserve capacity and concerns
with high demand times in the summer months where the City is exceeding its allotted cubic feet
4
per second (cfs). The new tank would allow the City's system to use that storage to supplement
the consumption so they ultimately wouldn't be exceeding the allotted cfs, and would allow the
City to be more compliant with state regulations.
Mayor Andersen explained the concept of senior water rights and junior water rights. The City's
main well is a junior water right and was built after 1990 so if the City continues to exceed their
allotted flow requirements the State could require the City to reduce the flow drawn from the
main well. This project will also provide redundancy and more storage so the City doesn't
exceed its peak hour demand limits.
Citizen Bruce Case expressed that an increase from $30 a month to $49 a month is a big pill to
swallow for a lot of individuals in this community who are on fixed incomes. He further inquired
if this was an all or nothing project, or if it could be done in stages as more revenues come in. In
closing, he explained they have heard the worst case scenario but not information on a better
case scenario if additional money was utilized such as city reserves or grant money.
Mayor Andersen expressed the City does try to consider individuals who are on a fixed income
and they could potentially look at things on an individual basis. In regards to being an all or
nothing project he explained these needed improvements have been identified for many years
and outlined in these water planning studies. The City is already behind the 8 ball so to speak
when it comes to their water system. He expressed they can no longer piece meal together these
deficiencies.
Council President Gubler explained the Council will not know total project costs until the project
is put out to bid and has considered whether there are other options to reduce costs. The Council
is asking for the potential maximum with the hope there will reduced costs and additional funds
to lower the overall cost of this project.
Citizen Bruce Case inquired how much the Council is willing to take from the city reserves to
help fund this project. Council President Gubler explained to this date the Council has not yet
had that discussion. Mayor Andersen further explained the Council would like to keep some
money in reserves if there was an opportunity to purchase additional water rights, or if there was
a major break in one of the transmission lines. He estimated the number could be in a range of
$200,000 to $300,000 but they would need to discuss that further.
Mr. Hendricks explained the City is requesting authority to bond up to $3,900,000, but they do
not have to issue that amount. There are going to be things that potentially transpire to help save
money on this project.
Citizen Reid Hymas inquired if there is any indication of how much reserve water would be
available in the new tank.
5
Council Member Geray explained it is 1 million gallon tank but will depend entirely on
consumption. During peak hour demand in the summer there may not make a lot of progress
storing water until the draw on the system declines.
Mr. Hymas further inquired if the City has technology that indicates at all times how much water
is available in the tank. Mayor Andersen explained the City updated to a SCADA system which
provides data acquisition for the water system. Mr. Hymas expressed he moved here about 4
years ago and where he previously lived they paid about $200 a month for water and it was
undrinkable. He stated that he didn't mind the increase because he enjoys the water here and that
it tastes good.
Council Member McNamara expressed this project is for the entire community to continue to
enjoy the water service that is provided by the system and that she hopes the water system will
continue working for years to come.
Citizen Dennis McArthur expressed his gratitude for previous councils who spent the money all
those years ago for the system the citizens are able to enjoy now. In closing, he believes the City
has an opportunity to improve this system now and for future generations.

CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL MEETING - MEET THE CANDIDATES
OCTOBER 17, 2017 — 7:00 P.M.
IONA COMMUNITY CENTER
PRESENT: Mayor Brad Andersen, Council President Dan Gubler, Council Member Rob Geray,
Council Member Dan Garren, Council Member Kathy McNamara, City Clerk Shara Roberts,
and Chief of Police Karl Bowcutt.
ABSENT: Public Works Director Zech Prouse, and City Attorney Dale Storer.
VISITORS: Susan Gardner, Layne Roberts, Pam Theriault, Tanya Orton, Dan Hunting, Valene
Contor, Bruce and Merodene Case, Heather Thompson, Gerald Kirkpatrick, Kirsten Hinton,
Scott Hinton, Dana Andersen, Chelsie Moore, Jordan Parker, Mike Thompson, and Emily
Downey.
Meet the Candidates for the 2017 General City Election: Mayor Andersen welcomed
everyone and introduced Melanie Keyes who is the Chair of the Planning and Zoning
Commission. He asked her to mediate tonight's forum since she is unable to vote in the
upcoming election.
He explained if individuals do not want to come up to the podium to verbally ask a question they
can submit them anonymously in writing with the materials provided outside of the room.
Questions were also anonymously gathered via the Iona-ites Facebook page. Individuals in the
audience will be given an opportunity to verbally ask the questions to the candidates if they
choose.
Mayor Andersen reported the City office received a phone call from Bonneville County
Elections Office notifying them they received a complaint from a citizen regarding campaign
signs being allowed in public right-of-ways. It is his understanding the public right-of-way for
the City of Iona starts from the middle of the road 30 feet back. Because state law prohibits this
action, and a complaint was received they need to enforce it as written for all candidates. He
asked if there were any questions and turned the time over to the mediator.
Mrs. Keyes reported she received quite a few messages and phone calls for questions to be used
during tonight's forum. She explained each candidate will have 2 minutes to answer the question
and the forum will end promptly at 7:00 pm. Mrs. Keyes requested each candidate start by
making a short introduction and summary of why they are running for a political office.
Council President Gubler expressed he has been serving on the Council for quite some time now,
and decided to run for Mayor as it was requested by quite a few residents.
Citizen Michael Thompson expressed they moved here in 2014 and fell in love with Iona. As a
result, he wants to be involved in the community where his children will be raised because they
mean the world to him and so does Iona.
Council Member Kathy McNamara expressed she is running for local office because she wants
to know what the people want.
1
Council Member Dan Gauen expressed he moved here 16 years ago and got involved with the
Planning and Zoning Commission. He sat on the Commission for 7 years and served as the
Chairman for 5 of those years. Last year there was a vacancy on the Council and Mayor
Andersen asked him if he would be interested in fulfilling that role. He agreed as he felt it would
be a way in which he could continue to grow his impact on the City and preserve what he finds
special about the community. The Council appointed him into the position and he would like to
continue that service.
Citizen Emily Downey expressed she has lived here for 12 years and really loves this city. She
feels it's important to get involved when you care about something. This past summer she served
as the Coordinator of the Iona Day annual event. Historically the City has brought in anywhere
from $200-$500 in donations from local businesses. She was able to solicit over $3,000 from
business to make the event more accessible and free to the community. Mrs. Downey highlighted
her background in marketing and communication and believes the City could benefit from
utilizing those skills to really reach younger demographics.
Mayor Andersen explained he is a lifelong resident of Iona and decided to get involved. He
started many community events such as the Fun Run, Easter Egg Hunt, the Trunk or Treat, and
was instrumental in getting the splash pad. The biggest assets he brings as a candidate is his
leadership qualities, budgeting experience, and owning a water business. Four years ago he was
appointed by Governor Otter to sit on the Water Board for the State of Idaho. He also serves on
the Association of Idaho Cities Water Board, and the Idaho Rural Water Association. When they
discuss the life blood of Iona there is only one utility and that is water. He believes his
experience and qualities make him the best candidate and that is why he is running.
The mediator inquired why each candidate wants to be involved in city government and if they
previously were why did they get involved to begin with.
Council President Gubler explained he grew up in a small town where his father served on the
city council. He had a lot of opportunities to observe how local government functions. When
they moved to Iona he felt it was a good opportunity to get involved. He believes Iona is a great
place to live and local government is where it all starts. People often get upset with federal and
state level, but it starts right here.
Citizen Michael Thompson explained he has served on the Planning and Zoning Commission for
one year. He expressed before he got involved he often found himself pondering why certain
decisions or movements weren't being made by local government. Then it dawned on him he
can't change anything unless you become a part of it. His motivation for being involved is to
change things for the better and would like to see Iona flourish.
Council Member McNamara expressed she is running because she is for the people and wants to
hear their voice. She sits on the Museum Committee and they are planning to do a monthly time
capsule involving the grade school children with contests each month and hopes it will get
parents more involved. She is here because you have to start somewhere to be able to make a
difference.
2
Council Member Garren explained he got involved in local politics because of chickens during a
meeting where the topic of discussion was whether or not chickens should be allowed within city
limits. He felt if there was a decision being made that affected the whole community he wanted
to be involved. He knew a gentleman that sat on the Planning and Zoning Commission and told
him if a position every opened up he would be interested. A few months later he was asked to
serve on the Commission and it is a great training ground for learning more about the City and
local politics. He has spent many years researching the Comprehensive Plan and the City Code
which outlines the protection of those values about Iona that are so special. He further expressed
often times you have to make hard decisions. As long as those decisions are aligned with the
characters and values of the City they are the right calls to make, and he is willing to make those
difficult choices.
Citizen Emily Downey expressed her interest in local government and politics first began in high
school when she was enrolled in a government class she found very intriguing. She began
attending different political lectures just for fun and became involved in a program called Close
Up where she had an opportunity to go to Washington, D.C. and learn more about government.
She further expressed she did not expect to get involved with politics this early in her life, but
after helping to coordinate Iona Days she was asked to consider it. After much consideration, she
believes she has something to offer to this community and would love the opportunity to do that.
Mayor Andersen expressed he didn't have a desire to get into politics, but he did have a desire to
be a part of his community. He started with organizing a community fun run, and then he was
asked to consider running for city council. He started the Mayor's Youth Advisory Council
(MYAC) 12 years ago, and discussed the importance of having youth involved in community.
Mediator asked for questions from the audience.
Citizen Bruce Case expressed each candidate is here to represent the people, and asked if they
feel strongly about a certain position and the people of this community feel differently do you
vote within yourselves or go with what the people want.
Mayor Andersen expressed it has happened quite a few times when he has changed his opinion
about something. Sometimes there is a small minority that attends a city council meeting and it's
easy to get caught up in that. However, what you have to remember whether you are the Mayor
or on the Council you represent the whole community. He briefly discussed the growth around
the community is going to happen whether we like it or not and you have to make decisions to
manage it responsibly.
Citizen Emily Downey explained there have been several times when she has gone into a
situation with a very strong opinion. She had to learn to listen to all these different opinions and
sometimes her opinion would shift. She believes when it is something that is important to
another person she believes it's important to listen to their side. She discussed city council
meetings not being very well attended right now unless they are upset. However, when people
are apathetic and quiet overall they are happy with how things are going, and if they weren't they
would be in attendance. There is a silent majority that needs to be taken into consideration and
what is best overall for the City and not make decisions based off of a few individuals who
express angry.
3
Council Member Gauen expressed as city representative at some level you forfeit your personal
opinions and set those biases aside. We represent the community and we need to make sure the
decisions are in the best interests of the community regardless of what those personal views
might be. The City's Comprehensive Plan includes a survey from the community and serves as
the backbone of how residents want to operate. There is a lot of opinion which is captured in that
document and it really has to be one of the cornerstones of how the City moves forward. The
document was established in 2007 nearly 10 years ago, and needs to be updated since a lot of
people have moved out and in. He believes there is a benefit in conducting more community
surveys if there are issues that are very polarized in nature to collect a broad spectrum from the
public on how they want the Council to move forward.
Council Member McNamara expressed she got involved in government because of the chicken
issue too. At the time, she couldn't imagine having someone else determining what can or cannot
be allowed in people's private backyards. She recalled a meeting in which the war veterans were
talking about the freedoms they fought so hard for. For her it's important to be listening to the
people.
Citizen Michael Thompson explained at Melaleuca where he is the Facilities Manager they instill
ground rules. A few of those ground rule are to be open, honest, candid, and his favorite part is
owning your data. If you own your data you shouldn't have any problems. The purpose of a city
council is to work together to gather data and information to make the best decision for a
community. He expressed we cannot stop the growth, but we can control how it's growing. We
have to do what's best for the community rather than basing it on a small majority of the City
and impeding the City's overall health. He believes when you become part of the Council you
should feed off of each other's ideas and opinions to always come out ahead in the end.
Council President Gubler explained when his father served on a city council they were
considering establishing a secondary water system which was going to cost a lot of money.
Initially his father was against it because of the cost of the system. He recalled asking his father
one day which way he was going vote, and his father told him he was going to support the
establishment of the system. He then asked his father why he was going to vote for something he
was against. His father told him he talked to enough people in the community and they
convinced him that's what they wanted to see. He further expressed since he has served on the
Council his door has always been open and willing to hear people's concerns, and he will
continue to do that.
Mediator asked for questions from the audience.
MYAC representative Layne Roberts asked the candidates if they were to get elected what their
plans are for MYAC and how they will benefit youth in the community.
Council Member Garren expressed he sees a lot of value in the program and as a city council
representative he has been supportive of it. He thinks it's beneficial to involve youth in
communities as they are the future leaders and it's the Council's duty to help support that.
4
Council Member Kathy McNamara expressed she is amazed by this group of kids who willingly
want to be part of government and they care enough about their surroundings to be a part of
things. She expressed she wouldn't make any changes to the program.
Citizen Michael Thompson expressed he is currently involved in influencing youth and preparing
them for their futures through his church. He explained he doesn't know too much specifically
about MYAC, but he thinks he would keep it pretty much the same. However, look into ways of
improving it with input from the future Council and Mayor to prepare individuals to be the voice
in the communities they will be a part of in their futures.
Council President Gubler discussed the Mayor talking about being responsible for the inception
of the program, but everything MYAC does has to have the support of the Council. He feels the
City Council has been very supportive of MYAC over the years. One of the concerns he has had
with MYAC is the lack of representation from Iona and it being open to other surrounding
communities. He feels the program should benefit youth from Iona. However, he thinks it a good
opportunity and hopes it continues.
Mayor Andersen explained he started MYAC 12 years ago and yes the Council has to support it.
However, it takes someone to have the vision to get it going. He has always believed it's not just
about Iona. He is aware there have been split thoughts on the Council for using taxpayer's
money to support this program. However, his opinion is they are investing in future leaders
regardless of where you live. We teach these kids about leadership, service, and advocacy. If
Council President Gubler is elected Mayor he would hope he could still be involved as an
advisor.
Citizen Emily Downey explained from her own experience growing up and wanting to be
involved with government she would definitely support this amazing program. She grew up
about 8 minutes outside of Iona, and if there was the same opportunity she would have been
involved and in turn it would have ended up benefiting Iona so she doesn't believe there is an
issue with having youth from surrounding communities.
Mediator announced she was going to ask questions she received anonymously.
A question specifically listed for Council President Gubler and Council Member McNamara was
why I should give you my vote when I have not seen you support past community events in the
last 4 years when you have served on the council.
Council Member McNamara responded she has helped with community events. She helped
served lunch at the Easter Egg Hunt. She gave out hot chocolate and donuts at the Trunk or
Treat. She expressed she didn't understand why the question was directed at certain people, and
questioned whether the person asking the question was in attendance.
Council President Gubler responded there are some community events he hasn't attended.
However, he has helped with cooking breakfast at Iona Days and for the City Clean -Up Days
through the years so he isn't sure what the merit was for the question.
5
A second question specifically listed for Council President Gubler thanked him for his service in
the military and the sacrifice his family has made, and inquired into any mental challenges that
may exist from post -traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) when it comes to running a city and
managing employees.
Council President Gubler expressed he feels he has dealt with his experience very well. He isn't
sure what bearing the question has on politics and feels the last 8-10 years of serving on the
Council represents who he is and how he communicates with individuals.
The third question specifically listed for Council Member McNamara expressed she has missed
several city council meetings over the years and is often seen in a wheelchair. The question
inquired if she was physically and mentally able to represent the citizens and commit to
attending all of the meetings.
Council Member McNamara expressed she sits in a wheelchair while attending church as there is
something in the building which makes her pass out. She further expressed if she has missed a
meeting she had a good reason to not be there.
Citizen Jolyn Louk discussed growth control and how number of years the Planning and Zoning
Commission has been trying to get Bonneville County to accept a revised Area of Impact
Agreement. She asked the candidates if they are elected what are they going to do to keep
moving things forward with implementing a new Area of Impact Agreement with the County.
Council Member Gauen expressed he was part of fighting that fight when he served on the
Commission. He explained part of the issue is from the County's perspective the City has
allowed less than 1/3 acre in the zoning ordinances so they will continue to allow it in the Area
of Impact. His solution is to get rid of the provision which allows less than 1/3 acre and eliminate
the excuse the County is using to continue to allow it in the Area of Impact Agreement.
Council Member McNamara recalled a previous council member felt the City needed to
diversify their structures such as including apartments and townhomes. She further expressed we
have a small town feel and the citizens like it the way it is. However, from her perspective the
City should consider annexing areas so they are able to have control on what is allowed to be
developed.
Citizen Emily Downey expressed she completely agrees with the thought process of only
allowing 1/3 acre lots. There is direct correlation with crime rate and high density low income
housing. A lot of people assume the crime rate in Iona isn't very high, but believes people would
be surprised to learn about what truly goes. In closing, she would support anything to prevent
that from increasing.
Citizen Michael Thompson expressed he believes in annexing certain surrounding areas adjacent
to the City to be able to have the control over future development.
Mayor Andersen agreed with Council Member Garren the City needs to pursue eliminating less
than 1/3 acre from code. He has tried to tackle this issue on a few different occasions, and has
6
been unsuccessful up until this point. However, the City does need to get back to how the
pioneers originally intended it to be with the minimum of 1/3 acre lots.
Council President Gubler expressed there is lack of respect from the County to want to abide by
the City's Area of Impact Agreement, and it has been a real battle over the years. The agreement
is intended to be reviewed every 10 years, and the City has pushed various meetings trying to
control how the growth outside of city limits impacts us. In closing, annexation is important so
there is more involvement and a voice of what the future growth of this city looks like.
Mediator asked a question received anonymously whether each candidate was in favor or against
the $3.9 million revenue water bond.
Mayor Andersen responded he was in favor of the water bond and noted the results of the
community survey showed approximately 83% wanted the Council to move in this direction
instead of pursuing water meters.
Citizen Emily Downey responded she fully supports the water bond based on her research
because it's necessary and putting it off could be detrimental.
Council Member Garren expressed like anyone he is not in favor of paying more each month for
water but it is the right thing to do for the long term health of this community. The engineering
studies have shown it is a necessity and this is the path forward the majority of citizens found
appropriate in the community survey.
Council Member McNamara expressed she supports the bond because the research has been
done. She also believes there are things which could become available to help the City pay off
the bond sooner.
Citizen Michael Thompson expressed he supports the bond since studies show the system is
deficient in a few areas. There are funding opportunities available if the bond is passed to bring
down the overall cost and monthly impact to each user's monthly water bill.
Council President Gubler expressed the beauty about what the Council has done is come up with
a solution to fix some of the existing deficiencies with the system and project into the future.
Additionally, it gives the residents of the City to have their chance to vote.

taken to open the meeting.
CONSENT AGENDA: Council Member Geray asked for clarification as to why the install of
the ductless air conditioner was paid from the Water Fund opposed to the General Fund. From
his perspective, it should have been distributed in percentages from each account.
Clerk Roberts reported it was her understanding it was split 50/50 from each account, but this
particular report didn't reflect those percentages. She stated she would gather further clarification
from Treasurer Sullivan.
City Council Minutes of September 19, 2017 were reviewed. Council reviewed the finance
reports for the period ending September 30, 2017 (100% of the fiscal year elapsed). The City had
$897,571.36 in the bank and routine bills had been paid, "Exhibit A".
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion. Council Member Geray moved to approve the consent
agenda pending clarification on the install of the ductless air conditioning. Council Member
McNamara seconded the motion. All in favor, motion carried.

need to be made prior to approval. This item was tabled until further notice.
Approval of Fiscal Year 2017/2018 Legal Service Proposal: Mayor Andersen reported City
Attorney Dale Storer will be retiring at the end of the year. Attorney Storer has proposed Andrew
Rawlings take over legal representation for the City.
He further explained that Attorney Storer has volunteered his time to attend city council
meetings. However, moving forward Mr. Rawlings would be charging to attend these meetings
as outlined in the proposal.
Mayor Andersen explained to Mr. Rawlings the City would only request him to attend these
meetings when there was an item of business listed on the agenda.
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion. Council Member Garren made a motion to approve the
legal services retainer as submitted. Council Member Geray seconded the motion. Approval of
the agreement was taken by a roll call vote, "Exhibit C":
Council Member Geray: Yes Council Member Gubler: Yes
Council Member Garren: Yes Council Member McNamara: Yes
General Water Discussion: Mayor Andersen reported last Thursday, October 12th the City held
a Public Information Meeting in regards to the Water System Improvement Project, and would
like to discuss scheduling a second meeting. After further discussion, the Council scheduled a
second Public Information Meeting to be held on Thursday, November 2nd at 7:00 pm.
Ted Hendricks with East-Central Idaho Planning & Development Association (ECIPDA)
reported there are a few items in which the Council will need to prepare for in the case the bond
election is successful. He explained in order for the State to accept the City's contract as eligible
with their program they will require that the City has followed a quality based federal
procurement guideline. As part of the development contract the City entered into with ECIPDA
they will help prepare for the request for proposal (RFP) document for the Council's review and
approval. Once the Council has made a selection based on qualifications they will negotiate a
contract with the entity they select. Mr. Hendricks expressed to the Council there will be quite a
bit of items to be accomplished in November and December to commit the funding, especially
the funding opportunity with the Army Corps of Engineers.
Mr. Hendricks recommended the Council scheduled a special work meeting to review and
finalize the document for the RFP process. After further discussion, the Council scheduled a
special work meeting for this purpose on Wednesday, October 25th at 6:00 pm.
Mr. Hendricks noted he would make the date revisions to the public information flyer for the
second meeting and get the document to Clerk Roberts for distribution.
2
Attorney Storer advised all campaign materials in relation to the bond be objective with facts and
not encourage electors to vote a particular way.
Citizen Emily Downey is going to assist Clerk Roberts in live streaming the meeting so
individuals can access the information at a later date if they are unable to attend the meeting.
Sports Recreation Director: Mayor Andersen reported Angel Chapa resigned from his position
as the Sports Recreation Director. He reviewed applications from the last time the City hired for
this position and found a candidate who is very qualified. He has hired Heidi Gummow who has
previous experience running similar programs, and will be teaming up with her husband to run
the Recreation Program.
Discussion of Part -Time Help: Mayor Andersen explained when Clerk Roberts was hired she
left a full time job and was hired on for the City for a part time position consisting of
approximately 25-30 hours per week. However, with the City growing and changing it is
requiring her to be here more often than not 40 hours and sometimes more each week. She is
working in the office each day of the week, and has quite a few evening commitments each
month.
Mayor Andersen proposed hiring a part time individual who would work approximately 8 — 10
hours per week to help cover some of the evening meetings such as Planning and Zoning and
Mayor's Youth Advisory Council to help relieve Clerk Roberts from not having to be here as
much in the evenings. As well as, fill in for her and Treasurer Sullivan when there is sickness,
emergencies, and vacation time to cover the City office.
Clerk Roberts expressed she was adaptable and willing to grow with the City to a certain extent,
but this month alone she will have been away from her family 10 evenings in addition to
working in the office Monday — Friday and she was reaching her extent.
After further discussion, the Council generally was supportive of hiring a part time person to
help relief some of the evening commitments and feel in as needed.
Veteran's Day Program: Council Member Geray reported the Veteran's Day Recognition
Ceremony will be held this year on Saturday, November 1 lth at 11:00 a.m.
He expressed in previous years they have had veterans speak during the program, but this year he
would like to highlight some speakers who appreciate veterans and their contributions such as
family members. There will also be a few musical numbers and a short video.
Annual Iona Trunk or Treat: Mayor Andersen reported the Annual Iona Trunk or Treat will be
held on Halloween Tuesday, October 31st at 6:00 p.m. Prizes will be given out for best decorated
vehicles and costumes. Additionally, the City will provide free hot chocolate and donuts. The
Mayor's Youth Advisory Council will be volunteering time to help with this community event.
Staff Reports: Director Prouse reported there are two snow plow trucks he has been gathering
more information on. The first one is in Denver, CO and it is a 2004 for $87,000 with 97,000
3
miles on it or a local truck which is a 2013 with 50,000 miles on it. However, the local truck
would exceed the budgeted amount for this purchase.
Council President Gubler inquired if the price of the truck in Denver included delivery costs.
Director Prouse indicated it did.
Council Member Geray inquired if Director Prouse had looked into the cost for a street sweeper
yet. He shared concerns with the amount of loose chip on the walk and bike paths this year after
the chip sealing project.
Director Prouse expressed he believes for approximately $30,000 the City could acquire a
dependable street sweeper. Mayor Andersen indicated the plow truck was a higher priority at this
point in time, but recommended a street sweeper be included in budget planning for the next
fiscal year.
Council President Gubler expressed he liked the idea of buying something local for support if
there is a problem with the truck.
Mayor Andersen recommended Council President Gubler get together with Director Prouse to
make a decision and report back with the Council.
Director Prouse reported if citizens are in need of assistance getting broken tree limbs and
branches after the recent snow storm they can put them in the public right-of-way and contact the
City Office to have them hauled away.
Council Member McNamara Reported the Iona Historical Museum is holding a meeting to
gather ideas for contests to hold once a month at the elementary school to help get children more
involved in the history of Iona.
Meeting adjourned at 8:09 p.m.

VISITORS: Greg Anderson, Jordan Parker, and Susan Gardner.
Discussion of the Water System Improvement Project: Mayor Andersen presented the
Request for Proposals (RFP) document drafted by Engineer Paul Scoresby and Ted Hendricks
with the East-Central Idaho Planning & Development (ECIPDA) and inquired if everyone had an
opportunity to review it for revisions.
Council Member Geray inquired why the document outlined a point system in the engineering
proposal section and a percentage system in the administrative proposal section. Mr. Hendricks
explained it was an error and they would revise the document to outline a point system
throughout the document.
Mr. Hendricks further explained the document was drafted off of the City's Design Professional
Services Resolution No. 2015-01 and there isn't much leeway for revisions. The document also
follows federal and state procurement guidelines which are required to secure Department of
Environmental Quality (DEQ) funding and Army Corps of Engineers grants.
According to the resolution, the Council can establish a committee of at least three members to
review the proposals.
Mr. Hendricks advised Clerk Roberts to not accept any proposals if they are received after 12:00
pm on Friday, November 17th and to mark them as nonresponsive. Once the Clerk receives all
the proposals she will include them in the Council packet electronically the afternoon of Friday,
November 17th to be reviewed in preparation for the Tuesday, November 21 st city council
meeting.
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion. Council President Gubler moved to approve the RFP
document with the exception of the revision of outlining a point system consistently throughout
the document. Council Member Geray seconded the motion. Approval was taken by a roll call
vote:
Council Member Geray: Yes Council Member Gubler: Yes
Council Member Garren: Yes Council Member McNamara: Yes
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion. Council President Gubler moved to appoint the Mayor,

In closing, Mr. Hendricks explained to the Council when they are going through the review and
selection process of the proposals they are only selecting the entity in which they want to try to
negotiate a contract with. If the Council is unable to make negotiations with the first entity they
can move on to their second choice and so forth.
Council President Gubler inquired if Clerk Roberts could include a copy of the map outlining the
water system improvement project on the City's website. Clerk Roberts indicated she would
work with Engineer Paul Scoresby to get the information available on the website.

CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING
WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
NOVEMBER 2, 2017 — 7:00 P.M.
IONA COMMUNITY CENTER
PRESENT: Mayor Brad Andersen, Council President Dan Gubler, Council Member Rob Geray,
Council Member Dan Garren, Council Member Kathy McNamara, City Clerk Shara Roberts,
and Public Works Director Zech Prouse.
ABSENT: Chief of Police Karl Bowcutt.
VISITORS: Bob Davenport, Jason Cariker, Jaden Jackson, Riley Bradshaw, Dave & Angie
Huntsman, John Cawley, Kevin Harris, Susan Gardner, Miranda Harrison, and Pam Theriault.
Discussion of Water System Improvement Project: Mayor Andersen expressed the purpose of
the meeting is to discuss needed improvements to the City's water system.
Engineer Paul Scoresby explained that the City has been considering improvements to the City's
water system since approximately 2004 when an engineer firm was hired to do an evaluation of
the overall condition and performance of the system. In 2008 a second study was initiated, and a
capital improvements plan was developed.
The City has done some of these improvements through the years using capital improvement
funds out of the water fund. Two of the major improvements accomplished were
recommissioning well #3 and rehabilitating the existing storage tank on the hill. Mayor Andersen
noted smaller improvements which have also been done include the installation of a backup
diesel generator and initiating a fire hydrant replacement program throughout the City. He
explained previous engineering studies expressed concerns that the hydrants were so outdated
there could be a potential to have difficulty connecting to them to access water in case of a fire
emergency.
He further expressed in terms of capacity the water system is at times exceeding daily demand
limits contained in the City's water rights. During the hot summer months all the wells are being
used at full capacity and if one was to go down residents wouldn't be able to water their lawns as
they have been accustomed to doing. The Council would have to potentially look at a mandatory
watering schedule as other jurisdictions have had to implement. The City has reached a point
where they have done what they can with the funds available, but now they are looking for
approval for a revenue bond to resolve these concerns and set the City up for many more years of
service.
Mr. Scoresby reviewed question #2 and question#3 in the informational handout, "Exhibit A"
which outlines a breakdown of the scope of work. He explained this project would consist of
constructing a new 1 million gallon storage tank and upgrading the transmission line to 16
inches. He also mentioned that the proposed project scope includes the construction of a new
well and a generator that would improve redundancy in case one of the other wells goes down.
1
Ted Hendricks with East-Central Idaho Planning & Development Association (ECIPDA) next
addressed the financing of the project. He explained his role is to analyze similar communities
with similar projects and determine what the project will cost to considering current trends in
constructions costs.
He reported the City of Iona qualifies for funding assistance in the form of a 30 year low interest
3% loan through the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The citizens have the
opportunity to vote during the revenue bond election which is scheduled for Tuesday, November
7th, 2017 to either authorize or disallow the City to borrow the money to fund this project. This
would require a simple majority vote to pass.
He further explained if the bond passes, it would result in an estimated increase of $19.00 per
household in the monthly water bill. As more homes or users come into the community the rate
could go down. The other thing that may impact the overall cost of the project depends is
whether the construction bid comes in lower than they are anticipating.
Mr. Hendricks reported additional funding could become available through the Army Corps of
Engineers. For example, the City of Driggs is in the middle of a similar water system
improvement project and just received $600,000 to go towards funding their project. If such
additional funds are acquired, the monthly increase would likely go down. However, the states
across the nation and the federal government have analyzed $50 a month per resident for each
separate utility for water and sewer to be affordable.
Mayor Andersen explained that when the scope of work was considered, the cost was based upon
a worst case scenario and didn't take into consideration any other additional funding that could
lower the overall cost of the project and thereby decrease the monthly impact upon each
resident's water bill. He further expressed the City has done what they were able to do within the
yearly budget, but when it comes to the big ticket items, such as the ones they are discussing
tonight, there is not enough funding to get the water system where it should be. He then opened
up the meeting for questions and comments from the public.
Citizen Dave Huntsman asked how much money was currently available in the City's water fund
reserves account. Mayor Andersen responded approximately $500,000.
Mr. Huntsman explained it was his understanding when the City raised the monthly water rate
from $23.00 to $30.00 the purpose of the increase, along with funds from water connection fees,
was to construct a new well.
Mayor Andersen responded funds have been set aside which is why the City currently has
approximately $500,000 in water fund reserves. Those funds can be used to go towards this
project if the City Council decides to go in that direction. However, they also want to keep
money in the reserve account in case of a main water line break or the opportunity to purchase
additional water rights.
2
Mr. Huntsman asked Engineer Paul Scoresby to explain in more detail the outline of the new
distribution lines and how they will loop into the existing system.
Mr. Scoresby explained the intention is to have the distribution line run further west on Telford
Road and then loop north to the existing system in two locations.
Council President Gubler further explained the purpose of the monthly water rate is not to fund
future water system improvement projects. Those funds are simply collected to operate and
maintain the system as it exists. However, money collected from water connection fees is set
aside for reserve purposes.
Mayor Andersen agreed with Council President Gubler and further explained the increase to the
monthly rate was based on an analysis of how much it costs to operate the system on a monthly
basis. He also discussed the history of the increase in water connection fees for new development
which has allowed the City Council to put funds into the reserve accounts.
Citizen LeAnn Winder explained she referenced her daughter's utility bill for the City of
Ammon for comparison purposes. She expressed with this potential cost increase of $19 it will
increase the monthly rate from $30 to $50. Once you add in the cost for sewer which is $28 per
month residents are paying nearly $78 per month for their water and sewer utilities which is
contrary to the figures shared by Mr. Hendricks earlier. She further expressed concerns of the
bond having to be approved prior to them actually knowing the ins and outs of how it will affect
each resident, and asked what guarantee residents have the City Council will decrease the impact
if the project doesn't cost as much as anticipated.
Mayor Andersen expressed as Mr. Hendricks indicated if the City Council opts to use some of
the reserve funds or receives a federal grant there is potential the impact to each resident will be
reduced.
Council President Gubler further explained the cost of the project is an estimate only, and the
City Council can only explore additional funding once they have approval of a revenue bond.
Mrs. Winder expressed she understood those conceptions, but she wants to know what the
integrity level is of the City Council if the bid comes in less than anticipated. She asked if they
would be willing to reduce the monthly impact for each resident.
Council Member Geray shared the proposed estimate with Mrs. Winder and explained if the bid
comes less than anticipated it will decrease the monthly impact for each resident.
Mrs. Winder inquired if she could have a copy of the proposed estimate. Clerk Roberts indicated
she would get her a copy of the document at the adjournment of tonight's meeting.
Council President Gubler further explained the City Council didn't want to get in a position as
other communities have in which a cost is identified and once the project is started the price
3
increased resulting in them having to ask for additional funding from the community. This
proposed estimate is based off of a worst case scenario.
Mr. Hendricks further explained a bond amount is not finalized until the completion of
construction. If the project costs less the City Council can close out the bond for a lesser amount,
but they do not have the authority to go any higher. He explained this type of loan funding does
not have prepayment penalties. As more money from water connection fees comes into the
systems and the cost is spread among more users there is ability for the City Council to pay
things off before the 30 year term expires.
Mr. Hendricks explained it depends on each community's demographics whether they are
eligible for other types of grant funding. Unfortunately, the City of Iona is not eligible for
Community Block Grant funding from a survey which was completed a couple of years ago
which determined the average household income exceeded the threshold for eligibility.
Mr. Hendricks expressed a community who has completed an improvement project has rates of
$50 or greater unless they have more users to spread the cost among. Generally speaking, it is
not uncommon for residents to pay $50 per utility (water and sewer). He referenced the City of
Rexburg, Fremont County, and Teton County as examples.
Mrs. Winder expressed her water pressure was terrible where she lived and inquired if this
project will help increase the pressure.
Council President Gubler expressed it should. Mayor Andersen advised Mrs. Winder it could
possibly be build up in the service line which restricts flow and pressure quite frequently.
Citizen Bob Davenport inquired if the City Council considered doing the project in pieces rather
than the entire project at once. Mayor Andersen explained when they first looked at this in 2009
the general consensus of the public and the council was they didn't want to pursue a revenue
bond. As a result they took what funds were able in reserves to rehabilitate the existing tank,
recommission well #3, and update to a SCADA system which provides real time monitoring of
the system. The City Council has basically done everything with the funds available, and doesn't
have enough money in reserves to complete the big ticket items which they have determined
need to be completed together.
Mr. Davenport further inquired after these infrastructure improvements what the City Council
sees as next items of business. Mayor Andersen responded hopefully nothing, but in the older
sections of the community there are old main lines which may need to be updated in the future.
Aside from that, the City Council is not anticipating anything at this time unless an opportunity
to purchase additional water rights becomes available.
Mayor Andersen read a question submitted in writing by Citizen Sally Price who was unable to
be present at tonight's meeting. Mrs. Price asked if the revenue bond passes for the water system
improvement project does the City Council have any plans to use reserve funds to purchase
water meters.
4
Mayor Andersen expressed a water committee was established of volunteer citizens to analyze
and help address some of the different deficiencies in the system. As a result one of the options
presented was water meters to curb consumption and strain on the existing system. However,
after further discussion in town hall meetings it was made clear it was not a popular choice. He
expressed he would let each member of the council speak for themselves, but it is understanding
the City Council does not plan on installing water meters until they are forced by state
regulations. The City has installed on a volunteer basis 23-30 meters as a means of collecting
data on churches, businesses, and different size lots within the community so they have some
data on the average consumption.
Council President Gubler expressed he was not interested in water meters at all.
Council Member Garren explained when the City Council conducted a community -wide survey
they presented different options or tools which were available to help address the water system's
deficiencies. He further explained water meters are one of those tools which tend to reduce
usage. However, the survey results showed they are the unpopular option. He believes it is the
Council's role to lay out the available tools, and ask the citizens which direction they would like
to move forward.
Council President Gubler reported the survey results showed 83% were in favor of the City
Council moving forward in the direction of pursuing a revenue bond to address the water
system's deficiencies.
Citizen LeAnn Winder inquired how many of the new subdivisions coming in are receiving
water services from the City of Iona, and asked where the City Council is anticipating growth
from.
Council Member Geray responded none as they fall outside of the City limits.
Mayor Andersen expressed the City is anticipating growth north and east of the city limits since
the City of Ammon is pushing from the west and the remainder of the growth is within the
County.
Council President Gubler further expressed the anticipated growth would be in the City's Area of
Impact.
In closing, Council Member Garren shared from his perspective this project will help solve
several of the water system deficiencies as outlined in the planning studies. He explained during
the summer months the City's pumping capacity is being exceeded. It would also create
redundancy requirements in the system. As of right now, the community is vulnerable if one of
the pumps goes down and they can't meet demand especially if there was a fire flow need. He
further expressed although this could help with future development this project is intended to
meet the needs of the community as it currently exists.
Mayor Andersen encouraged those present if they have additional questions or hear of other
citizens in the community who have questions to advise them to contact a local elected official.

Professional Services Agreement
October 19, 2017
This Professional Services Agreement is between City of Iona ("City") and Idaho Water Engineering, LLC
("IWE"). The purpose of this agreement is to define the professional services that will be provided to City. This
agreement is understood to be a time and materials proposal, but is subject to amendment or modification by
mutual agreement between the City and IWE.
IWE proposes to provide a detailed analysis of water rights currently held by the City. IWE will also develop a
replacement value of the existing City water rights. The City water rights portfolio currently includes; WR 25-
4091, 25-4092, 25-7014 and 25-7623. A summary report describing work accomplished and results will be
submitted to City within 90 days after the Agreement is signed. For purposes of administration of this
Agreement the City representative will be Mr. Dale W. Storer, Esquire and for IWE will be Mr. Hal N. Anderson.
Professional Services:
Tasks
1. IWE will provide a comprehensive market analysis in order to establish a basis for valuation of the
above described City water rights currently owned by the City.
2. IWE will establish a fair market replacement valuation for current City water rights.
3. IWE will consult with the City attorney and City engineer as necessary in order to ensure such analysis
comports with established methodology for inclusion of the value of such water right in the formula used
to calculate the City water connection fee.
4. IWE will prepare a report summarizing the results of such market analysis.
5. IWE will present the project results to City, if requested.
Cost:
The estimated cost for this project between $3,000 and $4500, exclusive of time and travel expenses from
Boise and Iona for any presentation to the City Council. This estimate is based on 20 to 30 hours for Mr. Hal
Anderson and Dr. David Tuthill at a billing rate of $150/ hr. Because of uncertainty about the complexity of a
water right analysis and valuation an exact cost cannot be established. IWE will only bill for the hours recorded
for project work. IWE will not incur expenses in excess of the above estimate without express approval of the
City. IWE will commit to orally present the analysis and valuation results to the Mayor and City Council in Iona
if so requested. If requested to present the results, IWE will require an $1,000 to cover time and travel
expenses from Boise to Iona. IWE will require a $1,500 initial payment prior to commencement of the work. A
final invoice for the remaining costs will be submitted with the summary report.
Potential Amendments:
This agreement may be amended at City request. New Professional Service tasks and costs will be developed
by IWE and submitted to City for review. Once agreement is reached on the additional tasks and costs the
Professional Services Agreement will be amended for approval.
Deliverables:
IWE will provide routine communication as requested to City, to discuss progress and related information as
this project advances. IWE will also represent City in research and discussions regarding this project. IWE will
submit a summary report documenting the project results.

constitute an event of default of the terms of this
License:
(A) Failure by Licensee to perform any
provision of this License required of Licensee, if the
failure to perform the same is not cured within thirty
(30) days after written notice has been given to
Licensee;

against Licensee in any court pursuant to any statute,
either in the United States or of any other state, a
petition in bankruptcy or insolvency, or for
reorganizations, or for appointment of a receiver or

owned by Licensee, or if Licensee makes an assignment
for the benefit of creditors, or an execution or
attachment shall be issued against Licensee on all or a
substantial portion of Licensee's property, whereby all

but not the obligation, to terminate this License, and all

and any other amounts required of Licensee hereunder,
together with legal interest thereon, all of which
amounts shall be immediately due and payable from
Licensee to City.
3 - License Agreement
(B) City shall also have the right, without
process of law, to enter the Premises and remove all
persons and property from the Premises without being
deemed guilty of or liable in trespass. No such action
by City shall be considered or construed to be a forcible
entry. No such reentry or taking possession of the
Premises by City shall be construed as an election on its
part to terminate this License unless a written notice of
such intention is given by City to Licensee.
(C) In addition to the other rights of City
herein provided, City may, at any time and from time to
time, without terminating this License, enforce all of its
rights and remedies under this License or allowed by
law or equity, including the right to recover all rent and
other amounts as they become due.
20.4 The remedies provided in this
License are cumulative in addition to any remedies now
or later allowed by law or equity. The exercise of any
remedy by City shall not be exclusive of the right to
effect any other remedy, allowed City under the terms
of this License, or now or later allowed by law or
equity.
20.5 Any delay by City in enforcing the
terms of this License or any considerations or
departures therefrom shall not operate to waive or be
deemed to be a waiver of any right to require
compliance that is full and to the letter of this License
or to thereafter require performance by Licensee in
strict accordance with the terms of this License. Any
acceptance of rent or other payments by City shall not
operate to waiver or be deemed to be a waiver of any
default existing at the time of such acceptance.
20.6 In the event that any remedy granted
to City under the terms of this License is held void or
unenforceable, City shall nevertheless have all of the
other remedies provided in this License that are not
contrary to law.

Licensee defaults in the performance of Licensee's
covenants and obligations hereunder, Licensee shall pay
to the City all costs and expenses, including but not

LICENSEE'S DEFAULTS. If Licensee shall default in
the performance of any covenant or condition in this
License required to be performed by Licensee, City
may, after ten (10) days notice to Licensee, or without
notice if in City's opinion an emergency exists, perform
such covenant or condition for the account and at the
expense of Licensee, in which event Licensee shall
reimburse City for all sums paid to effect such cure,
together with interest from the date of the expenditure
at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum and
reasonable attorney fees. In order to collect such
amount City shall have all the remedies available under
this License for a default and the provisions of this
paragraph shall survive the termination of this License.
Nothing in this paragraph shall in any way require City
to perform or correct any such defaults on the part of
Licensee.
23. NOTICES. Service of any notice
permitted or required under the terms of this License
shall be deemed given when sent by United States
certified or registered mail with postage prepaid and
return receipt requested, addressed to Licensee at 5487
Scoresby Ave., Iona, Idaho, 83427, or addressed to City
at P.O. Box 487, Iona, Idaho, 83427, as the case may
be, or such other address as either party shall hereafter
in writing to the other designate, or when served
personally or by overnight delivery to Licensee or City
at such addresses, as the case may be. In the event
there be more than one person constituting City or
Licensee herein, service by mail or personal service as
provided above upon any one (1) person in such party
shall be good and sufficient service upon all persons
constituting such party the same as though such service
had been made upon each and every member of such
party. In the event Licensee or City elect to hire an
attorney to prepare any notice of default required by the
terms of this License, the other party shall pay, in
addition to any sums required to be paid to cure said
default, or in addition to any other performance
required by such party to cure such default, the costs of
preparation of said default notice, and said default shall
not be cured unless and until said costs are paid.
24. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This
License contains the entire agreement between the
parties, and may not be modified or changed orally, but
only by an agreement in writing and signed by the party
against whom enforcement of any waiver, change,
modification, or discharge is sought.
25. SEVERANCE AND VALIDITY. In
the event any provision of this License or any part
thereof shall be determined by any court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or otherwise
unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereunder or
parts thereof, shall remain in full force and effect, and
shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated
thereby, it being agreed that such remaining provisions
shall be construed in a manner most closely
4 - License Agreement
approximating the intention of the parties with respect
to the invalid, void or unenforceable provision or part
thereof.
26. BINDING ON SUCCESSORS.
Subject to any restrictions on assignment and
subleasing contained in this License, it is further
expressly agreed, that the provisions, stipulations,
terms, covenants, conditions and undertakings in this
License and any renewals thereof shall inure to the
benefit of and bind the heirs, executors, administrators
and assigns or successors in interest of both the City
and Licensee.
27. IDAHO LAW GOVERNS. This

enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
