Director Cramer stated due to the Resolution and Ordinance not finalized, there is no action required at this time. The public hearing was held as it had been advertised. Legal Subject: Public Hearing – City-County 4-H Fairgrounds Property Sale In October, Council directed the City Attorney’s Office to draft a sale and purchase agreement to acquire the County 4-H Fairgrounds property. Features of the agreement include the following: payment at execution of a non- refundable amount of $50,000; payment of the total purchase price of $695,000, as determined by an independent appraisal from Kelley Real Estate Appraisers, Inc., a firm agreed upon by the parties; closing within 30 days following the public hearing; and, a successful 2/3rds vote by each party, respectively. The publication for notice of public hearing was advertised November 7 and November 14 as required by Idaho Code. Mayor Casper opened the public hearing and ordered all information presented be entered into the record. Mayor Casper stated this item has been discussed during multiple Work Sessions, most recently at the November 20 Work Session.

Gaylene Verdoorn, Tautphaus Park Zoological Society (TPZS) Chair, appeared. Ms. Verdoorn, on behalf of the TPZA, expressed her delight for the consideration of the land purchase. She believes this purchase will enhance the zoo’s ability to provide optimal care for the animals, will provide a pleasant experience for zoo visitors, and, will increase the role to provide the zoo to be an educational institution. There being no additional comments, Mayor Casper closed the public hearing. Councilmember Hally indicated conversation of the City acquiring the 4-H property has been occurring for a number of years. He stated the zoo is an accredited zoo, although there are several shortcomings including the limited and crowded space. There is also difficulty with parking. He believes the zoo needs improvements which will benefit the community and visitors. Councilmember Hally stated due to the purchase between two (2) entities, each governing board must approve the purchase with a ⅔ vote. Bonneville County will meet on November 22. He indicated an independent appraisal was performed with an appraisal price of $695,000. Councilmember Hally stated the Bill Maeck Foundation has donated funds to build an educational and meeting center with very little taxpayer money. He stated the purchase agreement includes a $50,000 non-refundable down payment and a payment plan has been established. Councilmember Hally believes this is a wonderful opportunity for the City. Councilmember Ehardt believes the zoo has roughly been the same size for a number of years. She is supportive of the expansion but preferred the 911 Center land swap. Councilmember Smith believes the 911 Center option was not economically feasible and should not have been considered. He believes this is the best option. It was moved by Councilmember Hally, seconded by Councilmember Marohn, to approve the Sale and Purchase Agreement to acquire the Bonneville County 4-H Fairgrounds property, and give authorization for the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the necessary documents.
