Book 34
Mr. Jarboe, 1920 South Tenth, informed Council that he
would like to present some of the basic elements of the
pre - application for public facility to the Idaho
Department of Commerce. This request for Idaho Community
Development Block Grant funds has progressed
substantially in the past few weeks and there is little
question that a completed application will be submitted
this coming Friday, November Sth. The application
preparation group which is the Ida -Ore Planning and
Developement and of course, the primary supplier of
information, the City of Caldwell, have covered most all
technical areas of the contract. Therefore, he would try
to address primarily where we stand from the functional
standpoint of this application.
Mr. Jarboe continued stating that as Council will recall,
the project is designed to provide much needed space for
programs, designed to assist persons with disabilities,
the disadvantaged and related others in their quest for
vocational, social and residential independence.
Outcomes of such programming are measured by the degree
to which recipients of service are able to gain and
maintain employment, function independently in their
respective communities and sustain a household. WITCO
has since 1974 operated vocational related programs,
developmental programs and most recently, become more
involved in offering residential options for a broad
constituency. Each such program is currently severely
restricted in terms of the number of persons who can
receive service as a result of significant physical space
shortage. The project once completed would house WITCO 's
Development Center, its Vocational Evaluation Center, and
its Employment Services Staff. As a result of such
movement, the Development Center would increase its
service recipient total to the equivalent of forty full
time persons which is roughly a thirty -three percent
increase. The Vocational Evaluation Unit would increase
its recipient base by better than twenty percent and the
Employment Service Staff would anticipate placing at
least 105 persons all of whom are from low to moderate
income recipients into jobs in the community.
Additionally, classes and job seeking skills, job
readiness and retention and the like will dramatically
increase in number of participants.
The benefits of the project at a minimum include the
placement of those individuals who are disabled,
disadvantaged, and /or at risk in some significant fashion
as eluded to just a moment ago. The provision of
vocational evaluation; a step which is preliminary to the
creation of a vocational plan to substantial numbers of
persons who would not otherwise receive such a service.
The enhancement of social and residential skills for a
minimum of forty persons. Skills which are enabling in
terms of creating those attributes that are necessary to
greater personal and financial independence. The
creation of fifteen professional level jobs sufficient to
accommodate the increased number of anticipated service
recipients. The development and implementation of an ADA
resource center in Caldwell_ We would hope to assist
businesses, government, and individuals in interpreting
how to deal with ADA on a functional level. Use of a
well established functionally diverse corporation which
is WITCO and further development of the Caldwell
community. The project involves innumerable individuals
and groups within the community through policy board,
advisory boards, contractual arrangements and business
arrangements, most of which are already in place and very
well established. The long term and ongoing relationship
between the City of Caldwell and WITCO promotes further
citizen project involvement. Also, this project assists
in the diversification of the economic base of the
Page 237
Book 34
Page 238
community by enhancing non- agriculturally related
business. Also, effectively addresses the needs of
minc°ity populations and lastly, enhances tFie concep of
an expanding central business district. They''a.ave cho�--.e.n
a site for the project, and have made an earnest menu,
p.:. °oposal ,which has been accepted. Mr. Ja.rhoe stated that
he did not know technically what the piece was called,
but i.t was situated between Court: Sports and the high; ay.
There was five acres and their offer was for three acrc�5.
Also, a site plan was i.r_ the works as is a Cost estimate
fer the ;c:r.oject; matching funds have been committed and
rari:cing cr!_teria have all been met. He further sa__d that
he •.o.ild be 'a- to answer any questions.
Iim Li_rdsall, Ida -Ore Planning and Development, wa:
recognized and stated that he would take a few monk_nts to
tal'- abcur_ some technical aspects. Mr. Bi_�dsall
explained that Mr. uarboe's presentation was excellent,
but time was some requirements of the Block Gray.!=
rogram, '.hat needed to be entered into t`r..e minutes_ The
purpose of the Hearing tonight is to allow citizen, input
inhc the use of the Idaho Community Development dock
Grant. Program which was authorized at the Federal 1 el
under Lhe Ccm=nity Development Act of 1974. This was
operated in Idaho by the Idaho Department of Commerce and
there is various activities eligib_'._e under this program.
They range f -om economic development to housing to public
facilities such as the project being discussed. tonig�r,'t.
The available estimated funding this fiscal year
oblic facility projects is $3,893,000. Cities and.
cc 7ties Rre the only el igible applicants. They can
apply on behalf of non- profit organizations. Proposed
projects need to meet basically one of three national
object Wes. They need to benefit primarily low anr,
moderate income persons or alleviate slum and blighted
co.-a,Hti ons or address an imminent threat to public 1�calth
and safety. This is a very competitive program. The
State accepts more alplications than it can actually
fund. The maximum public facility type application grant
a:i.ount is $500,OQ0. Mr. - •irdsall further_ stated that he
would like to make it known that the pre- application is
here tonight as is the applicant's handbook in case
anyone ''wad questions or needed to review either documez t.
As an extension of the City Staff on this project, Mr,
Birdsall said that he would be happy to answer any
questions.
Mayor Dakan closed the Public - 1-Tearing. it was then MOVI,D

MOTION CARRIED
(PUBLIC HEARING ON AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN)
The Mayor opened the Public Hearing and recognized Dick
Winder, 2205 East Linden Street, No. 6.
Mr. Winder informed Council that he read the Plan as
presented and he believed it to be an improved Plan to
what the City had previously. The Planning and Zoning
Commission and the Planning and Zoning Director have
worked very diligently for a significant amount of time
attempting to bring the Plan into some kind of sensible
reading and providing for public input. Mr. Winder
continued stating that since Mr. Crooks has been here,
there has been a great improvement in the amount of
public input that has been sought. The Commission has
been very willing to listen and he hoped that this policy
of citizen input would continue. One of the items in
this revised Plan is a three year review process which he
felt was extremely important.
Mayor Dakan closed the Public Hearing. The Planning and
Zoning Director made a couple of brief comments stating
that most of the changes involve a change in format and
organization. Mr. Crooks further said that the original
Plan was prepared back in the late seventies. It was a
rather cumbersome format and this revised Plan was on a
more standard format which made the document a little
more usable. A lot of the language was also more refined
and updated. The document does get circulated throughout
the State and even other western states. Therefore, his
department felt it was important to have a good document
that is readable. One other task they still need to
complete was the Public Facilities Component which they
will begin to work on after the first of the year. A new
component, School Facilities Planning and School
Transportation, has been added by the State and they hope
to be completed next year.
After the Planning and Zoning Director's comments, the
Mayor read the Resolution as follows:
A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OF THE CITY
OF CALDWELL, IDAHO; DETERMINING THAT SAID AMENDMENTS ARE

Councilman Nancolas stated that the Council originally
discussed an approximate thirty day time frame for the

already involved in construction with costs established
to not be under the new fee structure. His question to
the City Attorney was whether it was too late for Council
to make the effective dates on the Resolutions the 1st of
December, 1993.
