The Mayor reported that they had discussed possible legislation asking for about 104 of the Sales
Tax money at the State level and said that, in terms of cash to the City, it should amount to approximately
i $150,000.00 a year. He said that there probably would be some activity at the convention in this connection.
Mayor Smith also reported that they had discussed false arrest insurance with other brokers; there
were requests for compstative bids from Blue Cross and other insurance companies against the present carrier,
the Washington National Insurance Company, and there had been various reports on District Meetings with this
District having had quite a few Mayor's meetings which was not the case in all the other Districts. He said
that the major subjects at the convention would probably be on Urban Renewal and Sales Tax.

Request for special sprinkler irrigation rate
Mayor Smith explained to the Council that they had received a request for a special sprinkler
irrigation rate for those people between Cleveland and Blaine in the construction area along the one -way
couplet; that the Chamber of Commerce and the Business Men's Association had met with the Contractor and not
only were they complaining about the dust but the obstructing of traffic and the business people felt that it
had hurt them a great deal, even down as far as Penny Wise Drug, and it probably had. The Mayor stated that
the one -way couplet contract had been handled a little badly in as much as they had torn up both Cleveland
and Blaine at the same time and apparently the Contractor had that privilege under the contract; now, the
Contractor had asked the Chamber of Commerce and the Business Men's Association to use their influence with
the City to obtain a special sprinkler irrigation rate or no charge at all for those people along the con-
struction for two weeks during wnich time the Contractor said that he could finish up the storm sewers that
he would have there and then, he could handle the excess irrigation water that comes from the flooding of the
streets and that, if the City would do this, he would have the entire project completed by August 15th. The
Mayor further stated that this would require the City to make an agreement with those property owners that
they could sprinkle out of their faucets for no extra charge or, in other words, they would only be charged
the amount of their water bills for the proceeding month a then, they would have the problem along with the
Chamber, of notifying each householder and would be doing this with no power to enforce it so he had asked
the City Engineer to check this out to see if it would be reasonable to go along with it for a couple of week
City Engineer Mel Lewis explained that they could explore some arrangement to use Winkling but
that they would need some guidence in the thinking of the Council. He stated that he didn't think it was
practical to attempt to turn the irrigation water off although it could be done in isolated instances while
11 /,
in some of them, it mould affect . more than those people on those two streets. Mr. Lewis stated that he 6
thought, with a little oil, they could block off every intersection so the water wouldn't go from Cleveland
to Elaine and it would drain from Twentieth Avenue to Tenth Avenue but that the other way, they wouldn't do
anything about it because the water goes from Twentieth Avenue to Twenty- second Avenue and then into the pro.
Sect but fortunately there was no drainage water that comes from the south side of Cleveland Boulevard to the
North aide of Cleveland Boulevard so there was a barrier there that could be used.
Mr. Lewis further stated that, in working with this sort of thing, it had been their experience
'that people were not to honorable and flatly tell the Ditch- riders that they can't irrigate their lawn with -
lout running the water into the street and they are going to irrigate and, in this instance, people were not
going to be equipped to sprinkle and it would take all day and every day of the week where now they were
irrigating in about two hone a week so there was going to be a lot of difficulty at this point. He stated
that they were not going to force a great deal of cooperation and they had found that they had to shut the
water off, however, the areas the City had been working with were rather small while thin area was large and
this wasn't to practice'- although he had discussed the possibility with the Ditch - rider. Ha referred to his
previous suggestion for the possibility of placing oil to be taken up later and said that it would work all -
right except for those properties that were on the corners and if they were going to irrigate, they would
have to let the water over the side yards and into Blaine Street so he didn't know how they could regulate
this. Mr. Lewis also suggested that they might have Guy Healy patrol the area,
Mr. Lewis also informed the Council that he didn't think two weeks were going to help the
Contractor because he was planning to get the storm sewers in shape and then the water would get down in the
gutter and wouldn't bother him but that the City's experience was that the water gets down into the excavatio
through the cracks and then there were times when people would run more water than the gutter would hold and i"
there were places that were flater than others so it doesn't tip up away from the curb as drastically and
were going to run water into the street anyway.
After ume further discussion, it was agreed that the matter be left to the Mayor and City Engineer
to make a decision as to whether the action requested would be feasable.
Extension of Sanitation Contract discussed
Mayor Smith referred to the previous discussions concerning an extension of the Sanitation Contract
with Parka and Sons (Minutes, Book 11 - Page 631) and said that Mr. Parka had called him from Boise on his
way home this morning and had said that he would like to have some kind of action on the official extension o
the contract for five years on the basis of 80% of receipts after the completion of the present contract whic
had about two and a half years to run at 784% of receipts and he was also wondering if they couldn't have
another five year option at the end of that. Mayor Smith stated that he didn't think there would be anything
legal about an option without the renumeration being spelled out and he wouldn't recommend any further five
year extension but he did think the City should give the Contractor an official answer on their request. He
explained that the reason for the request was that they wanted to put in another big piece of equipment and
put the service on a five year working day basis for their people which should yield better service and
handle their labor situation better although it meant more investment.
After a brief discussion, it was agreed that any decision should wait until the next regular meeting
when everyone was present.
Settlement of account to be required before final approval on Plat
Mayor Smith referred to the situation of some old garbage accounts which had been turned over to a
collection agency and specifically referred to the delinquent accounts of Decia Cole who, he said, had refuse
to cooperate with the City in any way. The Mayor then referred to the preliminary approval given by the
^ouncil for the Plat of Cole Homesites which wasn't completely in order because of a portion of a street and
ae said that he was inclined to recommend to the Council that they not give final approval on the Plat until
Dacia Cole had paid the delinquent account to the collection agency as she had said that she had no intention
paying it.
After some discussion by the Council, it was moved by Councilman Davenport, seconded by Councilman
that Dacia Cole be informed through her Engineer that the Plat of Cole Homesites would not be giver.

Caldwell, Idaho
Dear Mr. Lew , -7:
April 21, 1966
Enclosed herewith is Corporation Quitclaim Deed conveying property for the right of way
for 26th Avenue between Cleveland and Blaine Streets as we discussed. Cur Hoard of Trustees
at its meeting on February 26 apprcved and instructed me to arrange for the installation of
curb and gutter, to city specifications, along College Avenue from Fillmore to Ash Street.
As we discussed, we will appreciate the cityls assistance for engineering and survey work
necessary to this project. It can be done on a contract separate from, but in conjunction
with, the local improvement district planned by your office for this summer. Once the LID
has been formed and a low bidder determined, we will negotiate with them for this construction
at the same time.
It is also understood that the city will cover such costs as are necessary for the
excavation and paving of the streets involved in both of these projects.
Your continued assistance and cooperation are appreciated.

and re -oil it.
