BUDGET WORK SESSION 6 Mayor Giordani opened the meefing by nofing that this was the sixth budget work session for FY26, held to review updates based on Council feedback from the previous meefing. She explained that, following earlier discussions and collaborafion with department heads and Shelly Shoemaker-Treasurer, the City was now presenfing a balanced budget for Council review. The Mayor emphasized that the FY26 budget focuses on returning to the basics of accountability, communicafion, and efficient service delivery. She highlighted the City’s ongoing transifion from reliance on contracted services toward building a fully staffed, capable City Hall team dedicated to serving the community. Page 1 of 4 Common Council Minutes | July 15, 2025 Approved October 14, 2025  8 Mayor Giordani also addressed the percepfion of a divide between residents and City Hall, emphasizing that City Hall is the community -made up of elected officials, appointed and hired staff, and cifizens working together. She reminded the Council that the City’s budget represents the collecfive investment of Bellevue’s residents. Finally, she underscored the importance of fiscal sustainability and revenue growth, nofing that while cost- cufting measures have been necessary, future focus must shift toward expanding revenue sources to maintain and improve services. The Mayor invited Council discussion and quesfions regarding the proposed budget. (00:07:20 in video) Council President Shay reported that she had discussed the necessity of the grader with the Public Works Director, Chris Johnson. She asked whether the City could operate without it and how the three departments under Public Works felt about the proposed three-way cost split. She noted that she received no negafive feedback from staff and emphasized that, while the equipment is expensive, she considers it a necessary investment given the City’s historical focus on cost-cufting. Council Member Wrede raised her concerns about the FY26 budget, nofing what she stated is an apparent $250,000 shorffall being funded by transferring $270,000 from the water and wastewater enterprise funds. She quesfioned the use of mulfiple accounfing methods for these transfers, the lack of supporfing documentafion, and the potenfial impact on city services, Council dufies, federal and state grants, and compliance with financial regulafions. She asked how the City is jusfifying the $270,000 transfer from the enterprise funds to the general fund. In response to Council Member Wrede’s concerns, the Mayor and Treasurer Shoemaker explained that the $270,000 transfer from the water and wastewater enterprise funds is intended to cover budget shorffalls while maintaining essenfial services. They reviewed the accounfing methods used, nofing they comply with standard municipal pracfices, and emphasized that the transfer would not compromise grants, bond covenants, or the City Council’s ability to perform its dufies. Council Member Wrede further expressed her concerns regarding the allocafion of $270,000 from the water and wastewater enterprise funds to the general fund and the documentafion supporfing those allocafions. Treasurer Shoemaker explained that the allocafions are based on actual expenses and staff fime spent on water and wastewater operafions, with percentages detailed in the administrafive fees worksheet. She confirmed supporfing documentafion exists and noted it would be provided prior to budget adopfion. Public Works Director Chris Johnson clarified that Public Works staff roufinely dedicate 2–2.5 days per week supporfing water and wastewater operafions, such as grounds maintenance, equipment installafion, and security measures at treatment facilifies. He explained these efforts are recorded in payroll and jusfify the allocafion of costs to enterprise funds. Council Member Wrede argued that all allocafions must comply with federal uniform guidance, reflect actual staff fime, and are documented for audit purposes. It was noted that adopfion of the budget would not occur at this meefing, allowing fime to provide complete supporfing documentafion. Council Member Wrede again expressed concerns regarding enterprise fund allocafions, compliance with federal guidance, and the impact on staff fime and City services. Mayor Giordani guided the discussion, asking Wrede to focus on one quesfion at a fime and emphasizing the importance of clear, producfive dialogue. Treasurer Shoemaker explained that the allocafions are based on established pracfices and actual staff fime, and confirmed that supporfing documentafion would be provided by Monday. The Mayor noted that the discussion also presented an opportunity to improve transparency with residents, suggesfing a narrafive document could summarize staff fime allocafions and job responsibilifies in a more digesfible format. Council members agreed to review the documentafion and provide feedback prior to budget adopfion. (00:25:21 in video) Council Member Davis asked about the handling of enterprise funds and funding for specific projects. Treasurer Shoemaker explained that exisfing DIF (Development Impact Fee) funds would be used for designated projects as they are approved by Council, rather than being included in the budget as income. The FY26 budget reflects reducfions in some department expenses to accommodate these projects. Page 2 of 4 Common Council Minutes | July 15, 2025 Approved October 14, 2025  9 The discussion also addressed Public Works staffing and payroll allocafions. Mayor Giordani clarified that the Public Works Director posifion is now fully funded by enterprise funds, with an increase in payroll for the Streets Department due to the elevafion of the Street Superintendent to City Assets Manager. She explained this consolidafion of departments (streets, buildings, parks, and separately water/wastewater) allows for more efficient management. She further stated that staff fime and equipment costs are allocated across departments and reimbursed appropriately, with oversight maintained to ensure compliance with operafional and regulatory requirements. Council Member Wrede raised quesfions regarding the allocafion of administrafive fees and whether payroll and other costs for City Assets and Public Works were being properly credited to the departments providing the work. Treasurer Shoemaker explained that administrafive fees are centralized in the general fund for efficiency, and while some departmental payroll contributes to common services, these amounts are captured as internal reimbursements rather than separate revenue lines. Council Member Wrede also quesfioned discrepancies in cost allocafions between water and sewer for shared expenses, such as software subscripfions, and the rafionale behind the differing percentages. Shoemaker explained allocafions are based on each department’s share of the overall city budget and historical auditor recommendafions, nofing opportunifies to refine allocafions and document usage more accurately in future budgets. Council Member Mahoney expressed frustrafion with the level of scrufiny being applied to this budget, nofing that the City has been audited annually without issue and that past pracfices have consistently complied with regulafions. (00:49:43 in video) Council Member Obenauf asked if the records management software request from the City Clerk was funded. Mayor Giordani confirmed that the admin budget includes funds for records management software. Council Member Wrede asked about increases in franchise fees which the Mayor explained was for the pending Clear Creek Franchise agreement. Regarding Community Development, Council Member Wrede asked about GIS software usage, website expenses, and code enforcement software, expressing concern that website costs were misallocated to the administrafion budget instead of Community Development. Council Member Wrede acknowledged Krisfin Gearhart, Library Director, for successfully and single-handedly managing the new website and newslefter and noted that she thought a one-fime bonus might be nice. Mayor Giordani noted a wage adjustment for the addifional hours added for Krisfin’s new responsibilifies. On the Marshal’s Department, Mayor Giordani confirmed funding for a fifth officer and Council discussed overfime and uniform needs for new hires with Marshal Kirtus Gaston. For City Assets, including Streets, Parks, Buildings, and Grounds, Council Member Wrede asked for clarificafion about staffing allocafions at 28 hours per week for tradifional services per staff member, a $30,000 payroll increase, and that Public Works Director costs have been moved to the enterprise funds. Administrafive fee allocafions, contract labor including snow removal were further discussed, and it was clarified that GIS software will use open-source solufions. The discussion emphasized clarity of staffing allocafions, proper allocafion of administrafive fees, and budget sufficiency for departmental inifiafives while balancing contract labor and in- house services. (01:10:44 in video) Council members reviewed specific budget line items across several departments, seeking clarificafion on funding sources, carryovers, and revenue projecfions. Quesfions were raised about repairs and maintenance allocafions, the $22,000 parks grant carryover, and the accuracy of the LOT tax revenue esfimate, which was reduced from $100,000 to $75,000 to befter reflect current revenue trends and improved code enforcement on short-term rentals. Discussion also covered the status of prior-year grant funds and clarificafion that the parks grant carryover accounted for much of the unspent funds from FY25. Page 3 of 4 Common Council Minutes | July 15, 2025 Approved October 14, 2025  10 Council then turned to the Water and Wastewater Fund budgets. Council Member Wrede brought up the need for documentafion to jusfify equipment allocafions, specifically the loader split across enterprise funds, and confirmed that the budgets did not include rate increases for water or wastewater services. Public Works Director, Chris Johnson explained ongoing repairs, meter acfivafion progress, and the confinued use of limited contract labor to meet cerfificafion requirements unfil addifional staff licensing is complete. Council inquired about fuel cost increases, nofing expanded meter and maintenance dufies. In the wastewater discussion, engineering and ufility costs were reviewed, with Mr. Johnson explaining that future facility planning and addifional engineering work may be needed. Clarificafions were made regarding merchant fees now being passed to customers, as well as ongoing maintenance expenses for system upgrades. Toward the end of the meefing, Council discussed equipment needs, including the importance of maintaining a funcfional grader for snow management and the condifion of equipment received from the City of Sun Valley. The discussion concluded with expressions of appreciafion from several Council members for Treasurer Shelly Shoemaker and the Mayor, commending the collaborafion, professionalism, and improvements made to the budgefing process. Mayor Giordani acknowledged that while the process was not perfect, it reflected significant progress and a commitment to confinued improvement. Before adjourning, Council Member Wrede reiterated her request for prior-year allocafion worksheets and supporfing documentafion for enterprise fund transfers. Mayor Giordani confirmed that public comment would be accepted at the upcoming budget adopfion meefing, following Council Member Bergen’s prior recommendafion. 4. Adjournment: (01:37:47 in Video) With no further business coming before the Common Council at this fime, Council Member Obenauf moved to adjourn the meefing. Council Member Wrede seconded the mofion. The meefing adjourned at 6:42 p.m. The mofion passed unanimously. ________________________________ Chrisfina Giordani, Mayor Aftest: _____________________________ Amy Phelps, City Clerk Page 4 of 4 Common Council Minutes | July 15, 2025 Approved October 14, 2025 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18  19 City of Bellevue 115 E Pine Street | PO Box 825 Bellevue, ID 83313 208-788-2128 Fax 208-788-2092 www.bellevueidaho.us City of Bellevue Regular Common Council Meeting November 10th, 2025 Public Works Request Wastewater Department Item: Headworks Channel Lining Overview At the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), in the screening room or “Headworks,” there is a concrete channel approximately three feet wide, five feet deep, and 100 feet in length. This channel receives the influent from the main lift station, where larger debris and solids are screened and separated. Over time, concentrated levels of septic water and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) have caused significant erosion of the concrete below the water line, exposing sections of structural rebar.

Three vendor quotes were received and are included in the attached packet for review.

It has accumulated significant hours (though no hour meter has been located). The moldboard, where the blade attaches, requires a complete rebuild, including all new bushings, spacers, and shims. According to John Deere, the cost for such a rebuild would be several thousand dollars. In short, the grader is well-worn and nearing the end of its useful life. However, for someone who does not rely heavily on a grader, it could still serve adequately until it is no longer operational. Idaho Code § 50-302 State that the City Council has the authority to “sell, exchange, convey or otherwise dispose of real or personal property” owned by a municipality. This authority extends to personal property that is no longer required for city use. In practice, this means that any sale or disposal of city-owned personal property must be authorized by a resolution of the council, which clearly identifies the item(s) being declared surplus and authorizes the mayor or other designated official to oversee their disposition. Suggested Motion Move to approve Resolution No. 25-33 Relating to Surplus Personal Property; Declaring Certain Personal Property of the City to be Surplus; Authorizing and Directing the Disposal of the Surplus Property; and Providing and Effective Date.

ATTORNEY: CITY OF BELLEVUE, IDAHO _____________________________ By____________________________ Frederick C. Allington Christina Giordani, Mayor AGREEMENT FOR PROSECUTION Page 7  36 Memorandum To: Bellevue Common Council From: Christina Giordani, Mayor Re: Community Project Recommendation Date: October 27, 2025 In March of this year, Bellevue’s request for funding through the Blue Cross of Idaho Foundation for Health grant was accepted. The grant included $85,000 in funds toward a “Community Project” – an improvement to public space geared toward social connectivity and health. Bellevue was also awarded technical assistance through Reynolds & Myers, help with community outreach to inform our project, and work that became the foundation for our Communications Playbook. Much of this outreach and assistance focused on Bellevue’s Memorial Park, with the recognition that this “town square” is the heart of our community. Bellevue sincerely appreciates Blue Cross and the trust this organization has placed in our community to be wise stewards of the Community Project grant funds. We understand the need to use these funds in a way that honors the intent of the grantor, advances the City’s goals for inviting and connective public space, and is grounded in the community’s feedback. I am thrilled to recommend to Bellevue and the Common Council that the Community Project’s funds be used to resurface and restore the play courts at Memorial Park, repair the surrounding fencing and gates, and restripe and redesign one of the existing basketball courts to serve as three pickleball courts. Pickleball facilities are the throughline identified by our community, citizens’ committees, and Blue Cross of Idaho as a priority for Bellevue. Our community has repeatedly indicated support for pickleball courts throughout public engagement surveys. The Bellevue Urban Renewal Agency and Parks Committee have positioned pickleball facilities as a priority. Finally, the basis for this project appears in Blue Cross of Idaho and Reynolds & Myers’ recommendations for the Community Project funds.  37 Mentions of pickleball have been ever-present throughout past and present community outreach. In a Parks Committee survey conducted from 2019-2020, pickleball was requested more than any other sports activity. One resident wrote: “How about putting some pickleball courts in along with basketball…they can coexist!!!” This year’s Community Project survey responses consistently highlighted the need for Bellevue’s public space to contain a diversity of recreational opportunities, including pickleball. Pointedly, one respondent wrote that “I am [a] new pickle ball player and there is no where in the city to play, so I have to go to Hailey or Ketchum so I often just stay home.” Other community members indicated a need for: “Courts for other sport[s] not just basketball, soccer and baseball,” “sports courts like Pickle Ball and maybe a volleyball court,” “outdoor pickle ball courts at Memorial Park,” and “[Something other than] a basketball court, baseball and soccer fields. Something for older adults.” One point was brought up repeatedly: our parks need to serve all age ranges, but our current recreational offerings do not. A 65+ year old woman stated simply that she wished there was “something to do.” Another respondent stated that she believes teenagers, young adults, and seniors often lack reasons to go to our parks, and that “pickleball, basketball, volleyball, and tennis courts can offer teens, and adults, athletic opportunities that they may not otherwise be able to experience.” One particular resident drove home the principle that our park offerings need to serve a range of demographics: “All of us, especially the children and the elderly, need the positive effects of the sun, the fresh air, the play, and the communal experience.” Pickleball is uniquely positioned to offer sun, fresh air, play, and a communal experience to Bellevue residents of all ages. The sport is increasingly popular: about 19.8 million people now play the sport in the US, and there are more than 70,641 pickleball courts nationwide. The Wood River Valley alone boasts 37 public pickleball courts, and every city in the valley (save for Bellevue) has some. Moreover, pickleball is cross-generational: according to the Sports & Fitness Industry Association, the 25-34 age bracket contains the most players, while the 65+ age bracket contains the second-most. As a result, as Mayor, I see pickleball as a unique opportunity. This sport has the potential to involve a broad part of our community in recreation, improve overall health and well-being, and foster cross-generational connections. My recommendation for the Community Project also stems from a community desire for maintenance of our existing resources. When surveyed about their desires for the use of grant funding, many residents expressed concerns about deferred maintenance. Some stated that Bellevue should consider addressing existing conditions with the grant funds rather than create a new facility. One respondent advised using the funds for maintenance,  38 writing that, “85 K is not a lot to do anything new.” I agree with the Community that maintenance of our existing resources is critical, and that we should prioritize creative uses of funds that advance our goals while addressing longstanding needs. This is why City Staff and I recommend this particular project: it would not only create new opportunities for recreation, but improve and preserve the sport court infrastructure at Memorial Park for years to come. The existing basketball courts at Memorial Park are degrading due to age, and will require resurfacing in coming years. In 2024, the City received a quote for resurfacing these courts. The amount exceeded $45,000, and did not include work to replace the surrounding chain- link fencing, which is also in disrepair. If we simply choose to do nothing, the courts will degrade beyond repair and will have to be wholly rebuilt at exceptionally higher cost. Using the Community Project funds to repave Memorial Park’s sport courts and replace the fencing will spare our taxpayers of future costs and preserve space in future budgets for critical infrastructure projects. Bellevue deserves exceptional public space, exceptional well-being, and an exceptional social fabric. We are deeply grateful that Blue Cross of Idaho saw our needs, believed in our capacity, and ultimately granted us the funds to make an outstanding Community Project possible. I strongly believe that this recommendation advances the goals of our grantor while being the most responsive to our residents. Repaving our sport courts for both pickleball and basketball would deliver more useful public space for more of our residents while preventing future expense. I would love to have your support for this recommendation. Sources: Mackie, B. (2023, February 24). Pickleball Statistics - The Numbers Behind America’s Fastest-Growing Sport in 2025.
