Pledge of Allegiance. Mayor Casper requested Community Development Services Director Brad Cramer to lead those present in the Pledge of Allegiance. 3. Public Comment. Gail Zurtlaff, Idaho Falls, appeared. Ms. Zurtlaff stated, because she became a military family, she is keenly aware that we mostly talk about quality of life issues here and more than 5,500 miles away, people are experiencing life and death issues. Ms. Zurtlaff shared a personal experience from January 2021 related to two (2) toddlers who were obviously lost and wandering and were too young to share their names or where they lived. She indicated she called law enforcement, however, no one showed for 30 minutes. She also indicated another couple arrived and waited. She referenced her public comments at the February 24 City Council Meeting regarding a conversation with an officer and construction workers. She stated when she called law enforcement in December 2021, she attempted to describe the light towers. She displayed a large item, stating the light tower was comparable to this item. She also displayed a 60-watt bulb for her home. She indicated the light tower represents 1,600 lumens, up to 813,000 lumens which is like 200-940 60-watt bulbs. Ms. Zurtlaff reiterated no one would come that night (December 2021) and no one with any authority saw what she saw. She stated she needed someone with authority to come. Mayor Casper stated she would follow up with this issue. Steve Laflin, small business owner in Idaho Falls and member of the Idaho Falls Airport Association (IFAA), appeared. Mr. Laflin expressed his congratulations for the advancement of the Idaho Falls Regional Airport (IDA) Leadership Workshop to an Airport Board of Directors. He stated the IFAA believes IDA deserves the attention of a full-fledged board. He indicated the economic impact of commercial aviation is significant and relatively easy to measure in terms of passenger numbers and other direct revenues, however, he is hopeful that commercial aviation is not the sole focus of the board. Mr. Laflin stated previous numbers indicate general aviation makes up more than 90% of operations at IDA but the economic impact of general aviation is more difficult to measure on the community. He indicated most major retail stores run corporate aircraft as the most efficient means to transport management. He also indicated general aviation activities includes air freight services, firefighting, air ambulance, flight training, charity flights, and profit operations which all contribute to the value of IDA. Mr. Laflin believes additional services to Idaho Falls were made because the commercial airlines were confident that they could fill those seats, which is occurring, as a result of successful economic development which has been supported by general aviation. Mr. Laflin believes general aviation leads the way for economic development while commercial aviation follows the growth. Therefore, Mr. Laflin believes it would be appropriate that the council consider expanding the IDA Board Members beyond city Page 1 of 10 City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 10, 2022 councilmembers to include other members of the general aviation community. He indicated this approach has been very successful in other airports. He believes a more diverse board could better address the needs and opportunities at the IDA and the important role that it plays in supporting the city and all of Eastern Idaho. 4. Consent Agenda. Council President Dingman stated the Consent Agenda item 4.B.2) Bid IF-22-09, did not have the correct recommendation bid award total. She indicated only one (1) of two (2) lump sum sections were included with the bid. It was then moved by Council President Dingman, seconded by Councilor Burtenshaw, to remove this item from the Consent Agenda to correct the total to be awarded and move it under the Regular Agenda 5.B. so the council can properly award the bid as corrected.

Per Councilor Freeman, Director Alexander was unsure of the number of units in the niche. Councilor Radford stated this is a need as more cremations are occurring due to the cost of funerals, noting Rose Hill has not previously had this option. Per Councilor Burtenshaw, Director Alexander confirmed there will be a fee for this wall.

Airport 1) City Council Acting as Idaho Falls Airport Board IDA is a city-owned enterprise funded largely by FAA grants-with other federal funds. Governance at IDA therefore must focus both fiduciary duty and management efforts on grant assurances, while at the same time ensuring that the passenger experience at IDA is convenient, comfortable, and safe. Throughout the airport management profession, these goals are met with board management. After a period of meeting in “Airport Leadership Workshops,” the Idaho Falls City Council is well suited to oversee airport policy, management, and overall disposition of federal and local funds. Approval of this Page 4 of 10 City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 10, 2022 manual will memorialize the practice of the City Council serving as the Idaho Falls Airport (IDA) Board of Directors. IDA Director Rick Cloutier appeared. He stated the policies and procedures manual will formalize the Airport Board for the future. He also stated numerous discussions have occurred in previous IDA meetings, and if approved, the first official Board Meeting will be held March 13. Councilor Radford expressed his appreciation for the public comment regarding the general aviation community, and he is interested in that conversation that was mentioned. Director Cloutier noted numerous airports have Advisory Boards that may make recommendations to the official Airport Boards. He indicated the suggestion of an Advisory Board may come under the Master Plan. Per Councilor Freeman, Director Cloutier confirmed this board has the legal fiduciary responsibility over IDA governance. Mayor Casper believes this policy may go through changes. Council President Dingman, as the IDA liaison, expressed her appreciation as she believes formalizing the council as the official IDA Board is crucial to the future success of IDA, and she concurred with the fiduciary responsibility which she also believes has served Idaho Falls Power (IFP) well. It was moved by Council President Ziel-Dingman, seconded by Councilor Freeman, to approve the policy and procedures manual for the Idaho Falls Regional Airport. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye - Councilors Francis, Dingman, Freeman, Hally, Radford, Burtenshaw. Nay - none. D. Public Works 1) Iona Bonneville Sewer District (IBSD) - Request for Sewer Service Area Expansion Public Works is in receipt of a request from the IBSD to increase the District’s sewer service area boundary by 102.68 acres. The proposed expansion included two separate areas. Exhibit A is for inclusion of 20.181 acres of property located generally east of North 45th East and north of East 49th North. Exhibit B is for inclusion of 82.499 acres of property located generally west of North 55th East and north of East 65th North. Section 8 of the Cooperative Agreement for Sewage Collection and Treatment between Idaho Falls and the District requires that enlargements to the sewer service area be approved by the City of Idaho Falls. The City had previously requested that the District not expand its sewer service area unless alternative means were secured for sewage to reach the Wastewater Treatment Plant. Currently, the Sunnyside Sanitary Sewer Trunk line carries all flow from the District to the Plant. The District did reduce its service area in response to our request and is approximately 114.83 acres smaller than when originally requested by the City. The District’s sewer service area would still be approximately 12.15 acres smaller than it was in 2016, if this request is approved. Public Works Director Chris Fredericksen appeared. He stated the total requested acreage is 102. He also stated the shrinkage of the IBSD service area is largely in fields that the city has expanded. Per Councilor Francis, Director Fredericksen believes the IBSD is looking at other areas to decrease. Councilor Hally stated allocation of cost has not been easy. Director Fredericksen stated the city has been a long-term provider for the IBSD, and numerous cost discussions have occurred over the previous year which has resulted in a rate increase. He also stated Public Works have stood up connection fees that the IBSD pays to the city for new connections to ensure responsibilities and proper compensation. Page 5 of 10 City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 10, 2022 Councilor Freeman recognized the IBSD paid for a significant portion of work on the Sunnyside Trunk Line. Director Fredericksen explained the Sunnyside Trunk Line stating there is approximately 25-30% capacity. He indicated the IBSD paid for their proportionate flow within that line. Per Councilor Freeman regarding the flow, Director Fredericksen stated the City of Ammon no longer uses this line which reduced the flow, although, the City of Idaho Falls is growing. He noted the IBSD would need to participate if an additional conduit is needed within the next five (5) year increment. He believes the IBSD is pursing options for handling their own waste. It was moved by Councilor Burtenshaw, seconded by Councilor Hally, to approve the request to expand the Sewer Service Area for IBSD. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye - Councilors Freeman, Francis, Hally, Radford, Burtenshaw, Dingman. Nay - none. E.

The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at its September 7, 2021, meeting and recommended approval by unanimous vote. Staff concurs with this recommendation. Councilor Francis stated this plat includes 16 residential and two (2) non-buildable lots. He also stated there is an anticipated trail along the canal on the opposite bank of this area that will connect across Page 6 of 10 City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 10, 2022 the road, and the development south of town will work well with this. He indicated, per the Planning and Zoning (P&Z) Commission notes, Sandpiper Way has a curve that will ‘calm’ the traffic. Councilor Burtenshaw believes the bridge over the canal is in place which connects the two (2) areas well.

The Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item at its December 7, 2021, meeting and unanimously voted to recommended approval of the PUD as presented. Staff concurs with this recommendation. Mayor Casper opened the public hearing and ordered all items presented be entered into the record. She requested applicant presentation. Barry Bane, Connect Engineering, appeared. Mr. Bane stated the parcel on the corner of Skyline and Pancheri is just over ½ acre. He also stated this is a continuation of recently approved Skyline Manor Division 1 that will continue to connect to Skyline. He indicated the water loop will continue, sanitary sewer is currently installed, and the storm water collection will go over to the storm pond in Division 1. Mr. Bane stated this lot is currently zoned R3A, they’re planning on two (2) different buildings - one (1) on the north side and one (1) on the south side which would equal ten (10) units, and these homes will be individually platted and individually sold as single-family attached homes. Mr. Bane stated they are requesting one (1) variance, the same variance requested for Division 1, which is the rear setback on the north side which is just over 11’ on one (1) side and just under 8’ on the other side of these townhomes. He also stated discussion occurred regarding lowering or angling the side although they believed it was best to keep the road at a ‘T’. Mr. Bane noted Division 1 had no fence along Pancheri as it was set back further from the road. He also noted a fence is planned for Division 2 around the south side and the west side of the property, and the 6’ fence will be reduced to a 3’ fence for safety reasons. Mr. Bane believes they are complying with the PUD ordinance. He also stated there is a one-car garage with a tandem next to it to make three (3) parking spaces per unit or two (2) spaces per unit without the tandem. Per Councilor Francis, Mr. Bane stated the intersection is not changing, and the fire hydrant will stay. Also Per Councilor Francis, Mr. Bane stated the walkway on the south side of the road connects to Skyline which connects to the pathway. Page 7 of 10 City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 10, 2022 Mayor Casper requested staff presentation. Director Cramer appeared. He presented the following: Slide 1 - Property under consideration Director Cramer reiterated the zone is currently R3A. He noted the zoning in the Reasoned Statement has been corrected and an updated version of the Reasoned Statement was provided to the City Clerk. He also noted the PUD is below the required acreage. He stated the variance is along the north line which will match the setback in Division 1. He explained the property line has a slight angle which drops from 11’ to 8’. Per Councilor Francis, Director Cramer explained the code requiring a minimum of two (2) acres for a PUD unless it’s for redevelopment purposes for a public benefit or amenity that’s being included. He stated this is a challenging piece of property which creates challenges with redevelopment infill. He also stated this is the type of property that typical standards are difficult to achieve. He indicated a PUD offers an exchange for variances. Mayor Casper questioned the notifications, obligations, and concerns of neighbors. Director Cramer stated the neighbors within 300’ did receive notification. He is not aware of any calls or input from the surrounding property owners. Mayor Casper requested public comment. No one appeared. Mayor Casper closed the public hearing. Councilor Burtenshaw stated the structure to the north does not run parallel to the slant, however, the structure is the same distance. She also stated she likes the product being offered and is unique. She expressed her appreciation to the developer for offering single-family homes that could be affordable. Councilor Francis believes this property is infill and is essential as a redevelopment, and it has connectivity to the River Walk. He also believes the speed of the street will be calm as is. Councilor Freeman expressed his appreciation to the developer to make this property work as infill. Councilor Hally believes this is an example of affordable housing which is needed.

Nay - Councilor Radford. 4) Ordinance to amend Title 7, Chapter 9 to add public transportation facility signs to the sign code. Attached is an ordinance amending Title 7, Chapter 9 to add public transportation facility signs to the sign code. This ordinance is in response to the recent efforts to launch Greater Idaho Falls Transit (GIFT) to provide public transportation in Idaho Falls. Although the program at this point is focused on micro-transit, as the system grows it may eventually include fixed routes with benches and shelters. Advertising is traditionally a part of such facilities, but the sign code does not currently accommodate off-premise advertising of this type. This proposal modifies the code to allow advertising on benches and shelters only associated with the official public transportation provider for the City. Director Cramer appeared. He stated this ordinance was drafted numerous years ago that would have Page 8 of 10 City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 10, 2022 funded a bus shelter, and discussion occurred regarding advertisement on the bus shelters that would be a revenue source, however, the sign code did not allow off-premise advertising. He explained on-premise and off-premise advertisement. Director Cramer stated the code has been updated to allow a revenue source for a public transportation entity, and the ordinance differentiates advertising in commercial versus residential zones. Director Cramer stated, per conversation with the new transit coordinator, there could be a need for a designated pick-up spot in particular neighborhoods. Per Councilor Francis, Director Cramer stated the revenue is not being addressed in the code. Also per Councilor Francis, Director Cramer stated the sign siting would be through Public Works with a right-of-way permit, and the standards for the sign code would be checked. Council President Dingman clarified the transit provider is three (3) entities, and all these entities have signed the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) to provide these services. She stated the Targhee Regional Public Transportation Authority (TRPTA) dba as GIFT has the authority to enter into an agreement with any public or private agency to provide public transportation, and GIFT is the only true provider per State Code. She also stated there could be a high need for this. She noted previously there were bus benches on fixed routes where the advertising dollars were being provided back to TRPTA. She also noted there was another bus bench program that has since been dissolved. Councilor Burtenshaw expressed her gratitude to the GIFT program. She believes this will be very proactive, is positive, and a forward-thinking advancement. It was moved by Councilor Burtenshaw, seconded by Councilor Francis, to approve the amendment of Title 7, Chapter 9 to add public transportation facility signs to the sign code under a suspension of the rules requiring three complete and separate readings and request that it be read by title and published by summary. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye - Councilors Freeman, Radford, Burtenshaw, Francis, Dingman, Hally. Nay - none. At the request of Mayor Casper, the City Clerk read the ordinance by title only: ORDINANCE NO. 3447 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF IDAHO FALLS, IDAHO, A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF THE STATE OF IDAHO; AMENDING TITLE 7, CHAPTER 9 TO CLARIFY AND ADD WATER PLAN DEVELOPMENT, ELECTRONIC MESSAGE CENTER, AND PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION TO THE SIGN CODE; PROVIDING SEVERABILITY, CODIFICATION, PUBLICATION BY SUMMARY, AND ESTABLISHING EFFECTIVE DATE. Director Cramer indicated the wrong ordinance summary language was included in the packet. Mayor Casper clarified the content of the ordinance is correct. She requested the City Clerk re-read the ordinance title considering this to be a scrivener’s error. Mr. Kirkham believes the title should be amended as a council action with the corrected title. At the request of Mayor Casper, the City Clerk re-read the ordinance by title only: ORDINANCE NO. 3447 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF IDAHO FALLS, IDAHO, A MUNICIPAL CORPORATION OF THE STATE OF IDAHO; AMENDING TITLE 7, CHAPTER 9 TO CLARIFY AND ADD PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION FACILITY SIGNS TO THE SIGN CODE; PROVIDING SEVERABILITY, CODIFICATION, PUBLICATION BY SUMMARY, AND ESTABLISHING EFFECTIVE DATE. It was then moved by Councilor Francis, seconded by Councilor Burtenshaw, to accept the amended version of the ordinance title. The motion carried by the following vote: Aye - Councilors Hally, Dingman, Francis, Burtenshaw, Radford, Freeman. Nay - none. Page 9 of 10 City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 10, 2022 Per Mayor Casper, Mr. Kirkham confirmed the amended title will be published in the newspaper. 6. Announcements.
