Appeal of case of City of Caldwell vs. Shirley Buchanan reconsidered
The City Attorney referred to the previous action of the Council in the matter of the appeal from
the Dtetrict Court of the rase of the City of Caldwell vs. Shirley Buchanan and informed the Council that
since this was a criminal matter, it placed upon the offices of the Prosecuting Attorney and the Attorney
General for the State of Idaho, the responsibility of following the appeal throagh. He said there was a
certain amount of relunctance in both of these offices due to the importance in a matter which involved only
this trailer and the taking of the matter to the Supreme Court on the question of whether or not the District
Judge should or should not have admitted an exhibit which was the agreement between the City and ,Buchanan for the removal of the trailer.
Mayor Smith referred to the previous action of the Council and commented on the costs involved in
the continuance of the case as well as the other alternative of leasing a non - conforming mobile home in this
area. He referred to the failure of TLs. Buchanan to live up to her agreement with the City and said it was
strictly up to the Council in reconsidering their previous action as to what they wanted to do at this point.
The City Attorney advised the Council that he thought the Council had shown their intent to enforce
the Cltycs Ordinance and the Court's decision had been made on a technicality; that he didn't think there
would be any reflection on the Council should they not carry the appeal of the case farther bat he thought
the Council needed to consider whether or not the location of the trailer was of such importance in relation
to the costs involved and would it accomplish something that was absolutely necessary in that the City had
now eliminated the technicality that had defeated the case in District Court.
After some discussion, Councilman Martin stated that after hearing the explanation presented con -
cerning the decision of the Court and everything involved and in considering the location of the trailer;
I
that he would move to rescind the previous action and not proceed with the appeal of the case to the Supreme '
Court. The motion was seconded by Councilman Banks. A vote was taken and the motion carried.
Amendment to portion of Title VIII of the City Code recommended
Mayor Smith informed the Council of the numerous problems confronting the City with regards to
requests for burial on properties at the cemetery where there was not a clear chain of title and stated that
he would recommend the following amendments to the appropriate portions of Title VIII of the City Code:
1. To insert a reversion clause in the deeds issued from this date forward on burial
spaces. Said revs ^sion to be effective after 30 years subject to renewal on
application for additional time ... if approved by the City Council or the Mayor.
2. Require that any mortician or surviving heir wishing to bury a body on land which
does not have a valid and continuing title shall be required to sign an idemnity
to the City of Caldwell. Said persons will be required to show some relationship
to the original owner by an affidavit and subject to the approval of the City
Council or the Mayor.
3. That quit claim deeds prepared and executed in the office of the City Clerk, at
the request of the owner, shall be furnished at a charge of $1.00 each.
Mayor Smith referred to this general problem for burials at the cemetery and to the number of
unused properties in the older portion of the cemetery, and he informed the Council of a meeting with the
local morticians who had been very cooperative. He said he had written to the State of Wyoming at their
suggestion to inquire about a procedure used in their State for regaining title to cemetery properties when
not used and said that should this procedure not be useable in Idaho, he was considering recommending to the
Council that a quiet title action be taken on the old lots in the cemetery where the owners or their heirs
could not be located.
After some discussion; it was moved by Councilman Keys, seconded by Councilman Carpenter, that the
587
City Attorney prepare the proper amendments to the City Code as recommended. A vote was taken and the motia
— carried.
Amendment to Chapter 11 of Title XI of the City Code recommended
Mayor Smith recommended the following amendment to Chapter ll of Title XI of the City Code:
CHAPTER 11 - SPEED LIMITS
Ammend Section 11 -11 -1 as follows;
11 -11 -1: BASIC RULE AND PRIMA FACIE UblI TS. a. No person shall drive a vehicle on a
highway or street at a speed greater than is reasonable and prudent under the conditions
and having regard to the actual and potential hazards then existing. In every event
speed shall be so controlled as may be necessary to avoid collising with any person,
vehicle, or other conveyance on or entering the highway or street in compliance with
legal requirements and the duty of all persons to use due care.
b. Where no special hazard exists that requires lower speed for compliance
! with paragraph (a) of this section the speed of any vehicle not in excess of the limits
Specified in this section or established as hereinafter authorized shall be lawful, but
any speed in excess of the limits specified in this section or established as hereinafter
authorized shall be prima facie evidence that the speed is not reasonable or puudent and
that it is unlawful:
(1) Upon any street or avenue designated as a highway of the State at such speed
as shall be established by the Highway Board of the Department of Highways of
the State of Idaho.
(2) Thirty (30) miles per hour upon arterial or through streets not designated as
highways of the State of Idaho.
(3) Twenty (20) miles per hour when passing a school building or grounds during
the hours of 8:00 AM and 5 :00 PM school days only when so posted.
(4) Twenty (20) miles per hour on all other streets or alleys whether posted or not.
(5) Twenty (20) miles per hour on all streets through or adjacent to City Parks
when posted.

traveling upon any narrow or winding roadway, and when special hazards exist with respect
to pedestrians or other traffic or by reason of weather, street or highway conditions.
11 -11 -2: EXCEPTION: Whenever the Council shall determine that any prima facie speed
hareinbe.fore set forth is greater or less than is reasonable or safe under the conditions
found to exist upon any street, avenue, or alley, the Council may, by resolution, declare
a reasonable and safe prima facie speed limit thereupon, which shall be effective at all
times after posting by appropriate speed limit signs.
It was moved by Councilman Banks, seconded by Councilman Martin, that the City Attorney prepare th
proper amendments to the City Code for speed limits as recommended. A vote was taken and the motion carried,
Policy on solicitations by local non - profit organizations
Mayor Smith then referred to problems with enforcement of the provisions of the City Code for re-
gulating and licensing Door -to -Door Salesmen and specifically referred to local service clubs and tba many
others where solicitations were for charitable purposes. He referred to the provisions of the Code for re-
ducing license fees and said he thought the local organizations should be required to obtain a license at
the reduced fee and they give their persons soliciting an identification card with reference to the City
License Number; that he thought the Council should establish a policy in this regard and also determine
whether or not a bond should be required in these circumstances.
After considerable discussion, it seemed to be the opinion of the Council that the p ahead
have a means of knowing who was soliciting and that the sponsoring organization be required to obtain a
city license at the reduced fee but the bond be waived at the discretion of the Mayor and that the sponsorin{
organization be required to furnish those soliciting for them with an identification card showing the City
License Number. No further action was taken.
Purchase of truck and tank authorized conditionally
Mayor Smith informed the Council of difficulities in disposing of sludge at the sewage treatment
r-
plant and referred to the fact that the contract for its disposal had not been renewed. He said that, if
the City wasn't able to contract for its disposal immediately he would like authority from the Council for
the purchase of a used truck and tank which could be obtained for arount $1,600.00.
It was moved by Councilman Martin, seconded by Councilman Banks, that if contract arrangements
were not made for removal of the sludge, the purchase of a used truck and tank be authorized at a cost of up
to $1,600.00. A vote was taken and the motion carried.
