The Mayor requested that everyone stand for the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. The Roll of the City Council was called with the following members present: Raymond, Winder, Houchins, Mallea, Jarboe, and Straight. Absent: none. (AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION) Mayor Cowles recognized Mrs. Gen. Pedersen, 1308 Cleveland Blvd. Mrs. Pedersen addressed the Mayor and Council stating that she had a petition from her neighborhood. She stated that she was delighted when the Mayor announced his plans for the clean up in the City of Caldwell. Mrs. Pedersen presented the petition to the Mayor along with a statement regarding the problem. The Mayor assured Mrs. Pedersen that he would be in touch with her regarding this issue. Councilman Raymond said that he has been asked by various citizens what the procedure would be after a problem property is identified. The Mayor replied that he met with the Building Official and the Police Department to try to determine the best and the most logical way to approach this problem without wasting a lot of tax dollars and manpower. They felt the best way was to handle the complaints through the Police Department, the Mayor's Office, and the Building Official's Office. If a situation occurs, the property owner should be notified, have approximately ten days to clean up the property, after which a citation could be issued either by the Mayor, the Police Department, or a resident. If necessary, it would be taken to court and find out how far the court will assist the City in cleaning up the property. All the requirements of the State and City Code will be met. Mrs. Pedersen further said that a Police Officer spoke to her neighbor a week ago last Saturday„ The Officer was not well received. He told the Officer that he would not comply and she could go ahead and get the signatures of the other neighbors. She further informed the Mayor and Council that she took the petition to the Prosecuting Attorney's Office and they did not know what the procedure was. Mrs. Pedersen stated that she was assuming and hoping that if there was a court case, the City Attorney would represent her. There was considerable discussion with respect to this issue. Mr. Buchta, from the Caldwell Fire Department, stated that the Fire Codes do address this type of situation. He suggested that the four of them meet and discuss the possibilities. Councilwoman Mallea stated that she would like for the Administration to clarify whether or not the City Attorney would represent Mrs. Pedersen. She further said that she did not believe this was possible. Mrs. Pedersen then asked why the City had an Attorney if he was not to represent the City's interest in a situation such as this. Mrs. Mallea informed Mrs. Pedersen that he represents the City; she did not know if a City Attorney would represent a private citizen. She could see the possibility of two priviate citizens being involved. Therefore, she would ask that the Administration secure an opinion regarding the City Attorney representing a private citizen. Nook 29 Page 72 Mrs. Pedersen commented that she thought this was the Mayor's and the Council's idea to get Caldwell cleaned up and that the City Attorney was :included in this. Mrs. Mallea again asked that an opinion be requested. Jackie Carter was recognized and stated that the campaign committee for the clean up met for the first organizational meeting. They asked her to come before the Council and ask if they will take part in the clean up on May 7th. They also requested that the City help publicize the clean up. Mayor Cowles introduced David Scott, the new Press Tribune reporter, and welcomed :him to the City of Caldwell. (CONSENT CALENDAR) The Mayor presented the two items on the Consent Calendar for Council action. The first was to dispense with the reading of the minutes of the Regular City Council Meeting of March 21st and approve them as written. The second item was the second reading of Bill No. 9, the wood stove ordinance. The Bill was read by title only as follows: AN ORDINANCE ENACTING A NEW `.CITLE 7, CHAPTER 6, CALDWELL CITY CODE TO PROVIDE FOR SOLID FUEL HEATING APPLIANCE PERMITS: PROVIDING FOR MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR CLEAN BURNING APPLIANCES: PROVIDING FOR A SOLID FUELD HEATING APPLIANCE APPEALS AND ADVISORY BOARD; PROVIDING FOR A PENALTY FOR NONCOMPLIANCE. MOVED by Raymond, SECONDED by Winder that approval be given for the Consent Calendar as presented. Roll call vote. Those voting yes: Raymond, Winder, Houchins, Mallea, Jarboe, and Straight. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED OLD BUSINESS (CONSIDERATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF FACILITIES PLAN UPDATE) The City Engineer, Mr. Redmond, informed the Council that the Department of Health and Welfare has not communicated or corresponded with him since the last meeting. Therefore, he would recommend that this item be postponed until confirmation was received that they have no further changes or modifications. The Mayor agreed with this recommendation and stated that it would be delayed as requested. (ESTABLISH IRRIGATION POLICIES) The Mayor asked that the City Engineer address this item on the Agenda. Mr. Redmond stated that copies of the Policies were distributed to the members of the City Council. Since the last time the Policies were discussed, a definition section has been incorporated at the direction of the City Attorney. A termination of service sect=ion was also added. This provides that a letter will be sent to those with outstanding irrigation assessments informing them of the possible termination of services if they do not pay in the manner provided. Mr. Redmond also commented that it would be inappropriate to apply these rules this year. If the Policies are adopted, there should probably be an intern deadline to apply for this year's operation. Councilman Houchins asked if the Policies were adopted, would this automatically include the ones that are several years :i00!w 2. Page 73 delinquent. Mr. Redmond stated that it would apply to any outstanding assessments. The State. Law does provide that the service can be terminated, but the City has not followed this procedure in the past. Councilman Winder asked if any of the users of the system have come forward to suggest that the citizens take over management of the system. The Mayor answered that no one has made that suggestion. Councilman Winder further stated that he felt very strongly about this option; if the citizens want to have close control, they should operate the system. If they are unwilling to do so, the City has no choice but to proceed as discussed as the District's repair project and financial condition was of vital importance at this time. Councilman Jarboe commented that Section III, page 2 where people become responsible for the lines that were previously taken care of by the City, was a particularly difficult section for him. The oldest lines in town will probably be in the oldest part of the City where people are least likely to be able to pay for new liners and repairs. The more affluent citizens live in the newer areas of town where there would be less need for costs. Although it was not intended to be a disciminatory policy, it does seem to appear so. It would be particularly difficult for the elderly, those with a fixed income who would have a hard time dealing with the policy. The Mayor asked Councilman Raymond to read the Resolution as follows: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL TO APPROVE THE CALDWELL MUNICIPAL IRRIGATION DISTRICT OPERATIONAL POLICY. BE IT RESOLVED That the Mayor and the City Council of the City of Caldwell be and the same hereby are, authorized to approve that certain Operational Policy for the Caldwell Municipal Irrigation District attached hereto and made a part hereof as if set forth in full. MOVED by Raymond, SECONDED by Winder that the Resolution be passed authorizing the approval of the Caldwell Municipal Irrigation District Operational Policy. Roll call vote. Those voting yes: Raymond, Winder, Houchins, Mallea, and Straight. Those voting no: Jarboe. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED (B.M.X. LEASE AT THE COMPLEX - RESOLUTION) Mayor Cowles asked Councilman Winder to read this Resolution as follows: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING MAYOR AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE A LEASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CALDWELL AND ROGER PATTERSON. BE IT RESOLVED That the Mayor and City Clerk of the City of Caldwell be, and the same hereby are, authorized to execute that certain lease agreement attached hereto and made a part hereof as if set forth in full by and between the City of Caldwell and Roger Patterson for the purpose of buidling a BMX Motocross course. Councilwoman Mallea was recognized by the Mayor and asked to discuss this lease. Mrs. Mallea noted the presence of Lisa Irby, the Treasurer of the BMX group. Councilwoman Mallea explained that she was not opposed to the BMX, but she did feel that the City had to be protected at all times and as much as possible from law suits. The lease called for the gook 29 Page 1,, lessee to furnish to lessor a fully paid up liability insurance policy that provides for $1,000,000.00. This was a standard insurance policy that the City calls for. Someone put a copy of the BMX insurance in the Council's boxes. Mrs. Mallea further stated that she asked the City's insurance carrier to review this. He informed her that the two things involved was that the City, on their certificate, must be a named insured. If the BMX group buys an insurance policy for the whole year at one time, one certificate will be delivered to the City naming the City as additional insured. If, however, they buy the $25 per race day insurance, a copy must be delivered to the City with the City as additional insured before the race. To hold the City harmless in the event of _ any type of problem is all that is requested. The carrier assured her that the liability was adequate. It was then MOVED by Mallea, SECONDED by Houchins that the Resolution be passed authorizing the execution of the Agreement as presented. Roll call vote. Those voting yes: Mallea, Jarboe, Straight, Raymond, Winder, and Houchins. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED (AWARD BID FOR WEED CONTROL AT THE AIRPORT) The Mayor explained that two bids; were presented to the City Council at the last meeting for weed control at the Airport. One was from Larry Ball and Jim Metzger in the amount of $6,967.50 and the other from Shore: and Shore in the amount of $15,000 which was the yearly cost. A delay in awarding the bid was requested due - to the discrepancy in the price. The Mayor stated that since: the last meeting, he had talked with both parties and was assured that they were following the specifications and requirements. The State Law requires that the low bid be accepted, but the City Council did feel that some assurance was required before the bid was awarded. Mayor Cowles then requested that: the Council take official action on the bid at this time. MOVED by Mallea, SECONDED by Straight that the low bid from Larry Ball and Jim Metzger in a yearly amount of $6,967.50 be accepted. MOTION CARRIED (THIRD READING OF BILL NO. 8 - HISTORICAL PRESERVATION COMMISSION) The Mayor asked the Mrs. Robison if she had any further comments with regard to this Bill before the Council took action. Mrs. Robison stated that she received no further comments or added information. There was some discussion among the Council members with regard to this Bill. Mrs. Robison explained that it was simply an enabling Ordinance. The Historical Commission would evaluate an area and would make a recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Commission,. The Planning and Zoning Commission would then send out notices to everyone within the area as well as those living within 300 feet of the area. The people would then be allowed to testify as to whether they would be interested. The Planning and Zoning Commission would then forward a recommendation to the City Council. The Council could then pass a Bill establishing a district. It was then MOVED by Raymond, SECONDED by Houchins to suspend the rule requiring that a bill be read in full for one reading and that Bill No. 8 be read by title only for those three readings. Roll call vote. Those voting yes: Raymond, Winder, 10pK 23 P d u 111, Houchins, Mallea, Jarboe, and Straight. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none.

It is important that an awareness of this heritage be developed and that an effort to preserve these environmental assets be perpetuated by the duly appo=inted CALDWELL PRESERVATION COMMISSION. MOVED by Raymond, SECONDED by Straight that Bill No. 8 be passed and entitled Ordinance No. 1778. Roll call vote. Those voting yes: Raymond, Winder, Houchins, Mallea, Jarboe, and Straight. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED NEW BUSINESS (BILL NO. 10 - VACATION OF CERTAIN PROPERTY IN CITY VIEW TRACTS) Mrs. Robison, Planning and Zoning Director, explained that copies of this Bill were distributed to the Council members. She stated that due to the necessity of having the plat recorded to avoid property becoming landlocked, a Section 6 was added to the Bill which reads as follows: This ordinance shall be in full force and effect 10 days after recording of the plat of Caldwell Interstate No. 2 subdivision at the office of the Recorder of Canyon County, Idaho. Councilman Houchins read Bill No. 10 by title only as follows: AN ORDINANCE RECITING PETITION FOR VACATION AND RECITING APPROPRIATE NOTICE THEREFOR WAS GIVEN: DETERMINING THAT VACATION OF CERTAIN PROPERTY IN CITY VIEW TRACTS DESCRIBED BELOW SHALL BE MADE, AND THAT SAID VACATION IS IN THE BEST PUBLIC INTEREST FOR THE CITY OF CALDWELL, IDAHO. MOVED by Houchins, SECONDED by Straight that this be considered the first reading of Bill No. 10. MOTION CARRIED (RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE THE EXECUTION OF AGREEMENT WITH JOHN WATSON) Mayor Cowles stated that the next order of business was consideration of a Resolution to authorize the execution of an agreement with John Watson, the Golf Pro at Purple Sage. The Mayor informed the Council that he met with Mr. Watson a couple of weeks ago. They shared concerns with regard to the drafting of an agreement between the City and Mr. Watson as the Golf Pro. A copy of the Agreement was distributed to the members of the City Council. Councilwoman Mallea was recognized and stated that she had some concerns with the contract: 1. Mr. Watson agreed when he took the job that he would move to Caldwell. He has Nook 29 Page %G moved, but did not come to Caldwell. 2. The term of the contract was increased from one year to five years. 3. She also did not agree with the section stating that termination can be only for cause. 4. Mrs. Mallea also questioned the last paragraph of the contract which seems to give the Pro the ability to be gone at any time with no real commitment to the City. Councilwoman Mallea further said that for these reasons, she would like to see the contract modified. Mayor Cowles stated that he would briefly address each issue presented by Councilwoman Mallea. Mr. Watson is a professional. He did agree that he wanted to live in Caldwell if they could find a residence to their liking and comfortable with. In the process of looking, he found a home in the City of New Plymouth. Whether Mr. Watson lives fifteen minutes from Purple Sage by living in Caldwell or eighteen minutes living in the City of New Plymouth, was not a problem. There was a difference between being a Fire Chief or a Police Chief and being the Golf Pro. The five year contract was reasonable. Mr. Watson has invested at least $100,000 worth of his personal money into the golf course for the purpose of making money. He is simply looking for a guarantee and trying to protect his interest. With regard to termination, the Mayor said he hoped that when the City terminates an employee, it is for good and sufficient grounds. If not, the employee should not be terminated. The Section 20 referred to by Mrs. Mallea was requested by Mr. Watson. In order for him to retain his golf professional status, he has to be involved in certain tournaments, take lessons, he has to be able to maintain his reputation on the golf course and he simply has to be involved. He should be allowed to operate as he sees fit in this respect. This would allow him to stay active in various associations and maintain his pro status. Councilman Winder said that he felt that the Golf Pro was an independent contractor as he has to give lessons or sell something to make money. He also has to provide a service acceptable to those who use it or they won't come back. If he doesn't make money, he will not be here for very long. Councilman Houchins commented that he could not think of an emergency at the golf course which would require a twenty minute driving time or a five minute driving time. As a businessman, there was no way that he would sign up for a year to year lease. More protection is needed to put forth the effort for good will. He needs to know that he is going to be there longer than one year. Therefore, he could not fault Mr. Watson for wanting a contract for more than one year. Councilman Jarboe questioned as to whether consideration would be given to extending the pro's contract at Fairview. In other words, would this be establishing a precedent. The Mayor stated that he did not think a precedent was being established. Each contract would be considered individually. He would like to see the Pro at ]Fairview on a three or five year contract. Once the City finds good people, it would be to the City's advantage to have them on a multi year agreement. To have to worry about contracts every year is not necessary. -W After considerable discussion by the City Council, it was MOVED by Winder, SECONDED by Straight to close the debate. Roll call vote. Those voting yes: Winder, Houchins, Mallea, Jarboe, Raymond, and Straight. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED The Mayor then asked the Council what action they cared to take at this time. 3oo'k 2) Page 77 MOVED by Winder, SECONDED by Straight that the Resolution be passed authorizing the execution of the Agreement as presented. Roll call vote. Those voting yes; Winder, Houchins, Jarboe, Raymond, and Straight. Those voting no: Mallea. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED (DEEDS AND EASEMENTS) Mrs. Robison presented two easements; one from David and Rose Crider and the other from Mario and Eva Rojas. The Easements were for the installation of the drainline that will help to alleviate problems in Montana Manor. MOVED by Raymond, SECONDED by Houchins that the Easements be accepted and that the City Clerk record the same. MOTION CARRIED (COMMITTEE REPORTS) Councilman Winder reported that the Finance Committee has been meeting on a regular basis to discuss various concerns and problems as well as develop a calendar for the budgeting process for the coming fiscal year. There was a tentative calendar: The Finance Officer will be sending work sheets to the various Departments early in April; the Departments are to submit their budget requests by approximately the 13th of May; on June 6th, the Committee will meet with Supervisors to discuss their budgets and plans; a preliminary budget will be prepared by about the middle of June; have this to the Council and public by the latter part of June; open workshops; approval of the tentative budget around the end of July; public hearing and adoption of budget to occur in August. The Committee has discussed the various problems such as the Treatment Plant, Irrigation, and the Stadium. Councilman Houchins said that he attended the Finance meetings and Councilman Winder had covered everything discussed. Councilwoman Mallea was recognized by the Mayor and stated that she had several reports regarding the Stadium. A Mr. Dan Sandretto from Mountain Bell approached the Stadium Commission and informed them that the Mountain Bell employees have requested permission to do $5,000 of work around the Stadium. The money was from the stockholders and not from the rates. Employees planned to donate all of the work and will use most of the money. They were prepared to do about 18,000 square feet of landscaping, about 18,000 feet of sprinkling lines, put in sod and trees, and install picnic tables. The City involvement or part of this would probably be to assist in the gravel and curb and gutter. For their participation, they would like to have a small sign of recognition. Mr. Wilson also attended the Stadium meeting representing the Sports Car Club of America. They would like to have a function in the parking lot in front of the Stadium. This will involve a course to drive cars on and they hope to attract a great number of people. Their insurance was adequate and it was to take place on July 23 and 24. Councilwoman Mallea stated that she wanted to discuss the financial summary of the Stadium with the Council members. Mrs. Mallea then presented a number of figures showing the proposed income and expenditures along with the actual income and expenditures. Mrs. Mallea informed the City Council that in order to handle the Stadium problems for the rest of the year, she would ask them to consider transferring Revenue Book 29 Paae 73 Sharing monies into the M. & 0, and the salary account. MOVED by Mallea, SECONDED by Jarboe that the City Council approve the transfer of $30,000 from the Stadium Revenue Sharing monies into the M. & O. and salary for the ongoing operation of the Complex. The Mayor then stated that he would ask for any comments from the City Council or anyone in the audience. Jim Thomas, Chairman of the Stadium Commission, was recognized and discussed the Stadium at some length. Council members also entered into the discussion. The tape of the meeting will be filed in the Office of the City Clerk for a period of six months and will be available for review. The suggestion was proposed that a special meeting be held at a later date for the purpose of receiving input from the community. The Mayor then requested a roll call vote on the motion: Those voting yes: Mallea, Jarboe, Straight, Raymond, Winder, and Houchins. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none. MOTION CARRIED Councilwoman Mallea also requested that the Finance Officer be directed to prepare a financial report for the Stadium and have it ready before the first Wednesday of the month so they can have a handle on the outgoing expenses and the balances of the different funds. There was some discussion pertaining to scheduling the meeting for input from the community. Councilman Raymond suggested that it would be appropriate to delay having the meeting until the new manager was hired and comfortable in his position. The Mayor stated that he would sit down with the members of the Stadium Commission, Councilwoman Mallea, and Councilman Winder and determine the best time to schedule —_ a meeting. Councilwoman Mallea also stated that she received a copy of the Stadium assets and there was a popcorn popper worth about $600. Councilman Jarboe was recognized by the Mayor and presented his report. Mr. Jarboe stated that the Committee that was charged with looking into the construction of a Clubhouse at Purple Sage has continued to progress. As everyone was aware, the City Council has committed $160,000 tentatively toward the construction of the Clubhouse. In the Clubhouse reserve fund, there was $50,000 and they were anticipating raising from the community $50,000 that would be dedicated to the landscaping and the furnishings. These monies would be raised through the sale: of season tickets and green fees and not from tax dollars. The Committee would like to couple that money with a loan from First Interstate Sank and will make that recommendation tonight in the amount of $300,000 as a finance package for the new clubhouse. There was three proposals received from three local banks for the financing. All were reviewed thoroughly and for a number of reasons determined that the City would beast be served by the proposal from First Interstate Bank. It was then MOVED by Jarboe, SECONDED by Raymond that the Council approve the funding concept for the new clubhouse. Roll call vote.

Councilman Jarboe continued by saying that by doing so, they were not approving the construction of the clubhouse. The Council would be allowing the Committee to go ahead with the next step of the process which was to go to bid. This would give them some indication as to the costs involved in the construction of the clubhouse. The Mayor requested a roll call vote. Those voting yes: Jarboe, Straight, Raymond, Winder, Houchins, and Mallea. Those voting no: none. Absent and not voting: none.
