A city council
workshop was held on February 2, 1999. Mayor Spence Horsley presided with
council members Larry Thomas, Tom Jenkins, Joe Thomas. Ruth Zivkovic was absent.
Also in attendance were Superintendent Sid Hess, Engineer Wayne Shepherd, Clerk
Susan Wittman, Attorney Stevin Brooks.
Spence presented to
the council a copy of the Idaho Code Title 67 Chapter 65 . This is to do with
areas of city impact. Spence told the council that the city needs to adopt how
far they want to consider to be the impact area. The city can have up to 1 mile.
This needs to be done by ordinance. The statute calls for a board of 3 city
officials, 3 county officials and 3 city or county resident. This board will
decide requirements of the impact area. Spence,
Joe and Tom will represent the city on this board. Some things that are a
concern are well head protections and right of way widths.
The council also
reviewed the sewer map of the city.
Meeting adjourned
