from her home. She reported she generally has one to three students at a time, and she doesn't
foresee any issues regarding parking or traffic in her neighborhood.
Mayor Andersen inquired if the Council had any questions. The Council didn't have any
questions or concerns regarding this particular business license application.
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion. Council President Gubler moved to approve the business

Council Member Geray inquired for clarification when he reads the city code regarding home
occupations it outlines a conditional use permit is required, and is concerned home occupations
are not being processed in line with city code.
Clerk Roberts agreed it is an issue of concern as most all home occupations in the City do not
hold a conditional use permit and just have a business license so it is a question whether we need
to go back and have all those individuals apply for the conditional use permit in addition to their
business license or is it a matter of just processing them correctly moving forward.
Council Member Geray further expressed the City needs to take a look at how they are
administering the home occupations, and again make sure they are in line with city code.
Additionally, including verbiage which exempts things such as piano and voice lessons. He
asked everyone to send him ideas for clarifying the verbiage and will work on putting together a
draft proposal.
Mayor Andersen asked Clerk Roberts to include it as an item of business for next month's
agenda.
Presentation of City Survey Results: Matt Hendricks explained he represented the team who
was contracted by the City to conduct the city wide survey. He provided a copy of the results for
the Council's review "Exhibit C", and reported out of 808 households 524 responded which is
approximately a 65% response rate. During the first three weeks they received 425 surveys, but
hadn't quite reached the goal of a 60% response rate so they recanvased the City a seconded time
and received another 99 responses. Mr. Hendricks explained he solely conducted the
quantification process of the data to maintain a higher level of quality control and spent more
time in the quantification process than he actually did going door-to-door. He then provided a
brief summary of the results for the Council.
Mayor Andersen explained when the Council first started this project the intention was for the
survey to be 8 to 10 yes/no questions. However, it evolved to a 16 question survey with a
mixture of yes/no and open ended questions. As a result of this, it ended up taking Mr. Hendricks
and his team a lot more time to complete and quantify the data. He feels the original contract
amount didn't cover the additional time and effort which was put in, and recommended the
Council consider additional compensation.
Council President Gubler directed Mr. Hendricks to submit a bill to the Council for the
additional time and effort for consideration.
Amending Section 8-2-36 Establishing a Monthly Water Service Fee for New Construction:
Mayor Andersen reported the Council has been discussing this item for the last couple of
months, and turned the time over to Attorney Storer to further explain the amendments.
Attorney Storer explained the proposed amendments address two issues of concern. First, the
ordinance now includes verbiage which outlines it is the responsibility of the homeowner to
terminate services upon vacating a property. He further explained failure to do so will not
constitute that the City have any obligation to refund all or any portion of the payments for water
service provided at the premises. Secondly, the ordinance now includes verbiage clarifying the
2
billing for water service will begin upon the issuance of a building permit for any structure upon
the premises, connection of any service line serving the premises to any main line or meter box
owned by the City, and a change in the nature of the water service classification for any building
or structure located on the premises.
Mayor Andersen entertained a motion. Council President Gubler moved to approve the
amendments to Title 8, Chapter 2, Sections 36 and 37 clarifying the verbiage relating to water
service as written and to dispense with the rule requiring reading in full on three separate
occasions. Council Member Garren seconded the motion. The ordinance was approved by a roll
call vote, "Exhibit D":
Council Member Geray: Yes Council Member Gubler: Yes
Council Member Garren: Yes Council Member McNamara: Yes
Discussion of Idaho Sod Zoning: Clerk Roberts reported last month the Council directed her to
send correspondence to Kirt Schwieder expressing the true use of his land is commercial and
therefore it needs to be zoned appropriately and brought into compliance. She further explained
she requested a response from Mr. Schwieder by today's date, and has not received further
communication at this time. Additionally, she spoke with Building Inspector Allen Eldridge in
which he informed her Mr. Schwieder was in the process of making arrangements to move his
business office to his other property in the City of Ammon.
Council President Gubler expressed Mr. Schwieder has a belief the nature of his business is
exempt from the commercial statutes outlined in city code. He is exempt from some costs when
it comes to taxes at the State level. However, he is still responsible for having a commercial
business compliant as all other commercial businesses regardless if the office is located in a
different jurisdiction because he is still selling sod from his property here in Iona.
Mayor Andersen asked Attorney Storer if the Council should move forward on scheduling a
public hearing through Planning and Zoning for a recommendation, and a second hearing for
final approval with the Council to address this concern.
Attorney Storer recommended at this time the Building Inspector Allen Eldridge and the Chief of
Police Karl Bowcutt sit down with Mr. Kirt Schwieder to clarify the issues and expectations for
resolution.
2016 Water Quality Report: Mayor Andersen presented the 2016 Water Quality Report and
explained it is required to be completed once a year, "Exhibit E. A copy is available on the City
website and in the City Clerk's office.
General Water System Discussion: Ted Hendricks with the East Idaho Central Planning and
Development Association began by expressing he was pleasantly surprised by the survey results
to learn the Council has a lot of support to move forward on the water system improvement
project related to constructing a new storage tank and well.
He then discussed how the City went about getting on the Department of Environmental
Quality's (DEQ) priority list for a loan with a 2.75% low interest rate for Fiscal Year 2018 to be
3
able to fund this project, and what the process would require moving forward. He explained
municipalities can only borrow money in two ways. First, they can organize a revenue bond
election which requires a simple majority vote (50% plus 1 vote). Alternatively, the Council can
declare the cost ordinary and necessary and take it through judicial confirmation in which a
judge would agree or disagree. He recommended to the Council to do a revenue bond election.
The only time in which these can fail is if the public are ill advised or if you have a very strong
opposition to the election in which people are going out campaigning against it. Additionally, if
there is a disconnection with the Council's support this can cause revenue bond elections to fail.
He confirmed with the Association of Idaho Cities (AIC) this morning there are two times a
municipality can have a revenue bond election which is in November and May. Overall, revenue
bond elections are the easier and less expensive route and if you get the support of your citizens
through education and putting the facts out there. From his perspective, he feels the Council has
pretty high support based on the survey results and would start holding some public information
meetings and move ahead with this improvement.
He explained the terms and conditions for receiving federal money are becoming harder and
harder to get. Historically, a few years ago the City had a similar opportunity to receive grant
money with a zero interest loan. However, the Council elected to not move ahead because of
some opposition which ended up costing thousands of dollars in the long run for the same
improvements the Council is considering now because constructions costs and interest rates have
increased. He further recommended the Council move forward with the improvement project and
take advantage of the opportunity they have with the DEQ funding.
He further explained the Council needs about 120 days to do a revenue bond election, and they
can hire an attorney who specializes in bond election or use Attorney Storer. If the Council
decided to move forward and wants the election to be held in November there is time to do it, but
not time to waste.
He also discussed the potential for the City to receive an Army Corps of Engineers Grant which
is a non-traditional resource in addition to the DEQ funds.
He expressed if the Council decides not to move forward they will be removed from the priority
list and have to start the process all over again, if at any point a future council decides to pursue
this again in the future.
Council Member Geray expressed the real question to him is if the Council is aligned on moving
forward with this DEQ funding and the new storage tank. From his perspective, it would be
difficult to get all of the ducks in a row in time for the November bond so he is inclined to
support waiting until May. He would like to see updated current numbers reflecting the project
and how much it could potentially raise user rates so they can decide whether they are in
alignment to move forward.
Mr. Hendricks suggested the Council scheduled a work meeting in the next 10 or 12 days and
have Paul Scoresby update the entire scope of potential water improvements, and make a final
decision by the end of July. He believes the Council could meet the November election date if
they decided to move forward.

After further discussion, the Council scheduled a special work meeting for Tuesday, July 11 to at
6:00 pm. Director Prouse will work with Engineer Paul Scoresby to have the information
prepared for the meeting.
Updates on Leak Detection Survey: Director Prouse reported they just completed the semi-
annual leak detection survey and did not find any significant leaks.
Geographic Information System (GIS) Mapping Project: Director Prouse reported he and his
staff have already mapped a majority of the system, with the exception of 23 areas they still need
to locate. He is hoping to have that completed by the end of next week.
Discussion of Obstruction of Right -of -Ways Ordinance: Director Prouse explained since
Chief Bowcutt resolved the issue on 55th there have been several other areas identified where
larger boulders or obstructions are being placed in the right-of-ways. In the process of trying to
address these issues, he and Chief Bowcutt identified how inconsistent the city code is in
comparison to state code.
After further discussion, the Council agreed the ordinance needed to be amended to further
clarify what is allowed and what isn't allowed in the right-of-ways. Mayor Andersen asked
Director Prouse to communicate tonight's discussion with Chief Bowcutt and have him work
with Attorney Storer to draft a proposal.
Fiscal Year 2018 Preliminary Budget Discussion: Mayor Andersen requested the Council
review the draft preliminary budget sheet and bring suggestions, changes, or large projects not
captured to the special work meeting on Tuesday, July 11 t". He suggested if they had any
questions to call himself or Treasurer Sullivan.
Mayor Andersen reported Clerk Roberts will provide more information to the Council on a
proposal for purchasing tablets and an electronic dual records management system to create more
administrative efficiencies and safeguards.
Additionally, they will need to discuss how much to take on property taxes and if they are going
to take any forgone amounts.
Iona Days: Mayor Andersen reported Iona Days Coordinator Emily Downey has been doing a
great job organizing the event so far. He further explained he believes she has East Idaho Credit
Union in line to sponsor the breakfast. However, some volunteers may still be needed to help
with cooking and serving.
Council President Gubler inquired if it would still be a fundraiser for the Mayor's Youth
Advisory Council (MYAC). Mayor Andersen explained with East Idaho Credit Union
sponsoring the event it would be free to the community. However, if MYAC members came and
assisted with the fun run and staffed the breakfast perhaps the City could give them about $400
similar to what they made last year from the breakfast.
Council President Gubler reported he hasn't received a confirmation from the Army National
Guard for the climbing wall.
5
Mayor Andersen reported Chief Bowcutt will be arranging for two additional officers with
Bonneville County for coverage for the fun run.
Fuel Reserve for the Eclipse: Council President Gubler reported he attended a meeting this last
week regarding the Solar Eclipse. The City needs to identify someone with a mobile ham radio
for communication in case cell phones are inoperable. Mayor Andersen expressed he may know
of someone who could fulfill this need. Additionally, the Council needs to plan for a fuel reserve
in the event city staff or vehicles need to operate. He sees a need for at least 500 gallons of a
fuel reserve to be put in place prior to this event.
Council President Gubler asked the Council and city staff to bring ideas or contact local
companies to fulfill this need for the special work meeting on Tuesday, July 11 th so they can
make a decision and move forward.
Staff Reports:
Council Member McNamara reported she was contacted by Marilyn Diehl with the Iona
Historical Museum who would like to see their budget increased to $2,000 this next fiscal year.
Meeting adjourned at 9:19 p.m.

Annual Drinking Water Quality Report for - 2016
City of Iona
PWS #7100041
As your back-up licensed Drinking Water Operator and Mayor I am pleased to present to you this year's Annual
Drinking Water Quality Report. This report is designed to inform you about the quality water and services we deliver
to you every day. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. We want
you to understand the efforts we make to continually improve and protect our water resources. We are committed to
ensuring the quality of your water. Our water source is (i.e., groundwater, well) from the East Snake River Plain
Aquifer.
I am pleased to report that your drinking water is safe and meets federal and state requirements. A source water
assessment was completed for your water system. Your system received a rating of "moderate" because of past
historical data and where your water source is located (i.e., agriculture area). If you would like a copy of this report
you can contact the Division of Environmental Quality (DEQ) or the City of Iona. If you have any questions about
this report or concerning your water utility, please contact Zech Prouse our Public Works Director and license
Drinking Water Operator at 523-5600. We want our valued customers to be informed about their water utility.
Please contact the City of Iona of the next scheduled city council meeting.
City of Iona routinely monitors for contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws. This
table shows the results of our monitoring for the period of January 1st to December 31 st, 2016 . As water travels over
the land or underground it can pick up substances or contaminants such as microbes, inorganic and organic
chemicals, and radioactive substances. All drinking water, including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably
expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. It's important to remember that the presence of
these contaminants does not necessarily pose a health risk.
In this table you will find many terms and abbreviations you might not be familiar with. To help you better
understand these terms we've provided the following definitions:
Non -Detects (ND) - laboratory analysis indicates that the constituent is not present.
Parts per million (ppm) or Milligrams per liter (mg/l) - one part per million corresponds to one minute in two years
or a single penny in $10,000.
Parts per billion (ppb) or Micrograms per liter - one part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a
single penny in $10,000,000.
Pico curies per liter (pCi/L) - Pico curies per liter are a measure of the radioactivity in water.
Millirems per year (mrem/yr) - measure of radiation absorbed by the body.
Action Level - the concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which
a water system must follow.
Treatment Technique (TT) - (mandatory language) a treatment technique is a required process intended to reduce the
level of a contaminant in drinking water.
Maximum Contaminant Level - (mandatory language) The "Maximum Allowed" (MCL) is the highest level of a
contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best
available treatment technology.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal - (mandatory language) The "Goal" (MCLG) is the level of a contaminant in
drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.
Exhibit "E"
As you can see by the table, our system had no violations, but there was a detection of total coliform bacteria in the
month of February. We're proud that your drinking water meets or exceeds all Federal and State requirements. We
have learned through our monitoring and testing that some constituents have been detected. The EPA has determined
that your water IS SAFE at these levels.
All sources of drinking water are subject to potential contamination by substances that are naturally occurring or man
made. These substances can be microbes, inorganic or organic chemicals and radioactive substances. All drinking
water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants.
The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information
about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency's
Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.
MCL's are set at very stringent levels. To understand the possible health effects described for many regulated
constituents, a person would have to drink 2 liters of water every day at the MCL level for a lifetime to have a one -
in -a -million chance of having the described health effect.
*Total Coliform: The Total Coliform Rule requires water systems to meet a strict limit for coliform bacteria.
Coliform bacteria are usually harmless, but their presence in water can be an indication of disease -causing bacteria.
When coliform bacteria are found, special follow-up tests are done to determine if harmful bacteria are present in the
water supply. If this limit is exceeded, the water supplier must notify the public by newspaper, television or radio.
January 19t', 2016 total coliform bacteria was detected in one sample. The positive sample was due to stagnant
water because of the limited use of the sample point. Since the disinfecting of the tank and water system there has
not been any detection of bacteria since February 2016.
Nitrates: As a precaution we always notify physicians and health care providers in this area if there is ever a higher
than normal level of nitrates in the water supply.
Lead: Lead in drinking water is rarely the sole cause of lead poisoning, but it can add to a person's total lead
exposure. All potential sources of lead in the household should be identified and removed, replaced or reduced.
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-
compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ
transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly
at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers.
EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other
microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).
Thank you for allowing us to continue providing your family with clean, quality water this year. In order to maintain
a safe and dependable water supply we sometimes need to make improvements that will benefit all of our customers.
Rate adjustments may be necessary in order to address these improvements. Thank you for understanding.
Please call our City of Iona Office if you have questions.
City of Iona works around the clock to provide top quality water to every tap, "said Public Works Supervisor
Zech Prouse." We ask that all our customers help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of our
community, our way of life and our children's future. Please call Zech Prouse @ 523-5600 if you have any
questions.
Sincerely,
Brad D. Andersen, Mayor
