REPORTS OR REQUESTS: A) Implementation of Vehicle Emissions Testing in Canyon County / Allen Freeman: Mr. Allen Freeman, Nampa, Idaho, spoke on the proposed emissions testing in Canyon County. He stated that he has been researching this matter for the last seven years. He presented detailed information on emissions reductions in Ada and Canyon Counties and requested that the Mayor and City Council of Wilder demand that EPA drop the testing for Canyon County. He also urged the Mayor and Council to attend a meeting with our Canyon County Commissioners scheduled for tomorrow, February 9 th, at 2:00 P.M. concerning the emissions testing. The Council thanked Mr. Freeman and Mr. Freeman left the meeting. B) Open Bids Proposal for Municipal Lease/Purchase Landscape Loader: Public Works Superintendent Craig Lane opened and read the two bids that the City received. They were from: CESCO - $49,518.00 / 2008 John Deere Loader with 400 hours on it. Burks Tractor - $63,117.00 / new Case Loader The specifications for the two loaders needed to be reviewed and compared. City Attorney Matt Johnson advised that the Council should amend the agenda to move the decision down to New Business to allow Craig Lane time to review the specifications. Councilman Rivera moved to amend the agenda by adding Approve Loader Bid to New Business under item H. This was seconded by Councilwoman Godina and Mayor Bechtel called for a roll call vote: Rivera yes; Godina yes; and Wilson yes. REPORTS: POLICE CHIEF REPORT - Police Chief Dusty Tveidt provided the January Statistical Report. Chief Tveidt reported that he needs to move the dog kennels because the Fire District is starting construction on the new fire station. He has found a small space at the Sewer Lagoons. He will get the kennels moved by mid-march. They will be located at the east end of the lagoons and will be away from any houses. Chief Tveidt had received a complaint about beets falling from the beet trucks. He researched the problem with Amalgamated Sugar. These trucks are specially made to haul the beets, so the only way to deal with the problem is with specific trucks by getting the license number. The Sugar Company will help with our road maintenance issues. PHARMER ENGINEERING / SEWER BOND PROJECT REPORT: Jeremy Aulbach attended the meeting and presented the update report on the Sewer Lagoon project. The new head works building is almost finished. The aerators are all installed and operating now. The old chlorine building was demolished by Craig Lane. The City Council Meeting Minutes February 8, 2010 Page # 5

site is pretty muddy. Jeremy Aulbach reported that Ed Ankenman is leaving and Jeremy will be working on our sewer project again. Jeremy Aulbach presented Pay Request #7 to R.S.C.I. in the amount of $299,904.14. Councilman Rivera moved to approve payment of Pay Request #7 for $299,904.14. Councilman Wilson seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Jeremy Aulbach introduced Russell Brooks. Mr. Brooks discussed the alternatives for using the final grant dollars for the sewer bond project. USDA has approved using the funds to spot repair the sewer lines around town and to relocate a portion of the sewer line in the north-west corner of Mitchell Subdivision. 22 houses in Mitchell Subdivision would be replumbed to move their sewer services from the back of the house to the front at no cost to the home owners. Pharmer Engineering provided detailed maps of the proposed alternatives. The cost is as follows: Alternative #1 - Do the needed spot repairs on the sewer lines in town as identified by the TV camera. Cost estimate is $144,000.00. Alternative #2 - Do the needed spot repairs around town, relocate a portion of the sewer line in the north west corner of Mitchell and re-plumb the sewer lines for 22 houses. Cost estimate is $314,000.00. If Alternative #2 is chosen, there would be around $75,000. 00 left of the grant funds to cover any contingencies. After review and discussion, Councilman Rivera moved to choose Alternative #2 for $314,000.00. Councilwoman Godina seconded and Mayor Bechtel called for a roll call vote: Rivera yes; Godina yes; and Wilson yes. PUBLIC WORKS REPORT - Public Works Superintendent Craig Lane reported on the following: Dog Kennels - Mr. Lane said that he was not sold on where they chose to relocate the dog kennels to. He did not feel that there was enough room at the sewer lagoon site. Mayor Bechtel said that there was a spot that could be used and they would have to be relocated to the sewer lagoon site since the City does not have any other available property. Water Department - Mr. Lane reported that MJ Construction will put in the water line extension to the new well site at COSSA. Sewer Department Mr. Lane reported that Doug Amick will train with us on the new sewer system since he is a backup operator for the City of Wilder. Roads & Streets The replacement cross walk signs are here, but we will put them out later after the weather gets better. Irrigation - Mr. Lane stated that we still need to build a building over the old well. Federal Surplus - Federal Surplus had a dumpster for $125.00 and Craig Lane purchased it to use at the sewer lagoons. He will put a rhino lining in it when he gets the rhino lining put in the bed of our sewer truck. Bill Pastoor was fine with us using our own dumpster.

Fire Station - Mr Stevens reported that he reviewed the plans for the new Fire Station and submitted his comments to Civil Dynamics. Sewer Darrell Jackson and Paul Stevens are working on a couple of EPA s comments concerning our NPDES Permit. Water - Mr. Stevens outlined the process for drilling a test well. The design and contract documents have been submitted to DEQ. Water rights and permits have been applied for.

Funding - Mr. Stevens continues to work with the Wilder Economic Development Committee on the Downtown Revitalization and Safe Routes to School grants.

She will put the Census Forms at the Library for those people using Post Office Boxes. A poster design contest is under way. The posters will be displayed around town. Ms. Reyes asked the City to donate two $25.00 Gift Certificates for the contest winners. The Council asked the City Clerk to put this decision on the March Council agenda. Lastly, Ms. Reyes asked the Mayor to declare the month of March as Census Awareness Month. This will also be put on the March agenda. PUBLIC HEARING: (None) OLD BUSINESS: A) PERFORMANCE BOND / WESTOWN DISPOSAL: Bill Pastoor submitted a letter with three options for the Council to consider concerning the Performance Bond requirement in the Franchise Agreement. They were: 1) Submit a Performance Bond 2) Continue purchasing the Letter of Credit from a local banking institution. 3) Place $25,000.00 into a CD which could only be withdrawn with both parties signature in case of non-performance. City Attorney Matt Johnson advised the City Council that they could dispense with the requirement for a bond from Westown Disposal, but the Franchise Agreement City Council Meeting Minutes February 8, 2010 Page # 7

would have to be amended to do this. Westown Disposal would have to pay the cost of amending the agreement. Mr. Pastoor said that he has been providing a Letter of Credit each year in the past, but the cost of this has significantly increased. City Attorney Johnson said that he would have to review the Franchise Agreement to see if Option #3 would work. B) 6 TH STREET ACCESS AGREEMENT WITH WILDER RURAL FIRE DISTRICT / UPDATE FROM ATTORNEY: City Attorney Matt Johnson reported that he is still waiting on additional information from representatives of the City and Fire District. C) REQUEST TO ADOPT RESOLUTION BY COMPASS: ADOPT THE 2030 PLANNING FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION MAP AND COMMUNITIES IN MOTION BY RESOLUTION. (Tabled until Golden Gate Highway District develops their map) This item was left tabled. NEW BUSINESS: A) WILDER SCHOOL DISTRICT RE-ZONE SET A PUBLIC HEARING: The Planning and Zoning Commissioners held a public hearing on re-zoning the Wilder School District Administrative Office property at 218 Golden Gate Avenue from an R-1 Zone to a C Commercial Zone. The City Council was provided copies of the Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law from this P&Z hearing. The Planning and Zoning Commissioners approved the re-zone and sent it to Council with a do pass recommendation. A motion to set a public hearing at the City Council meeting on March 8, 2010 at 7:00 P.M. was made by Councilman Wilson. Councilwoman Godina seconded and the motion carried with all in favor. B) COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF WILDER AND IDAHO TRANSPORTAION DEPARTMENT: City Attorney Matt Johnson explained that this agreement outlines ways that the Transportation Department and the City would work together on land use issues. It works with the current City procedures. The Planning & Zoning Commissioners have reviewed this agreement and sent it on to City Council with a recommendation to pass it. After review, Councilman Wilson moved to approve the Cooperative Agreement. Councilwoman Godina seconded and the motion passed unanimously. C) SET 2010 IRRIGATION ASSESSMENTS: City Clerk/Treasurer Colleen Cook reported on the budget figures for the Irrigation Fund. The Council had set a 5% increase for the 2009 / 2010 Budget. This increases the assessment from.009172 per square foot to.009631 per square foot. This increase still does not generate enough revenue to cover the expenses of the Irrigation Fund. The Council did not increase the assessment any more, so the City Council Meeting Minutes February 8, 2010 Page # 8

assessment for 2010 will be.009631 per square foot for both pressurized irrigation and flood irrigation. D) SET DATE FOR BOARD OF CORRECTIONS MEETING: Councilman Rivera moved to set the Board of Corrections Hearing for March 8, 2010 at 7:30 P.M.

This program would get the children involved with our community. The School Board must give their approval of the program. F) LAGOON AERATORS / SURPLUS TO CITY OF NOTUS: Public Works Superintendent Craig Lane reported that the City of Notus wants our old surplus aerators. City Clerk Colleen Cook sent copies to their City Clerk of our resolution and publication notice that we used to transfer the patch truck tray from Golden Gate Highway District to our city as a sample. The City of Notus will pay for the publication of the surplus notification. There are 4 aerators and 4 control panels. Craig Lane told them that he would sell the 4 aerators for $100.00 each and throw in the panels for free. Councilman Rivera moved to approve the sale of the aerator equipment to the City of Notus for the $400.00. This was seconded by Councilwoman Godina and passed unanimously. G) APPROVE LOADER BID: Public Works Superintendent Craig Lane had compared the specifications of each of the loaders with the bid specifications. He outlined the differences with the biggest one being that the Case is a new machine and costs a lot more. Mr. Lane recommended leasing the used John Deere loader from CESCO. Councilman Wilson moved to accept the bid of $49,518.00 from CESCO. Councilman Rivera seconded. Russ White from CESCO discussed the lease agreement, terms and financing costs with the Council. The City can lease the loader for one year with a single payment due in February 2011 of $52,025.53 and purchase it for $1.00. The interest rate is 4.95%. Councilman Wilson amended his previous motion that was on the floor to approve the bid from CESCO and authorize the Mayor to sign the lease agreement for $52,025.53 with the $1.00 buyout due in February 2011. Councilman Rivera seconded the amended motion and Mayor Bechtel called for a roll call vote: Rivera yes; Godina yes; and Wilson yes. Mayor Bechtel then signed the Lease Contract.

OLD BUSINESS (Continued): A) PERFORMANCE BOND FOR WESTOWN DISPOSAL: Councilman Wilson moved to reopen Item A under Old Business to continue the discussion on the performance bond for Westown Disposal. Councilman Rivera seconded and the motion passed with all in favor. The Council discussed dropping the requirement for the performance bond since the City has done business with Westown for years without any problems. Councilwoman Godina was concerned that it would be setting a precedent if we contracted with someone else in future years. City Attorney Johnson advised that the Franchise Agreement is exclusively between Westown and the City. Any new franchise would be subject to negotiating a new agreement and terms. Westown Disposal would have to pay the cost of amending their Franchise Agreement, but then they would not have to pay the cost of providing an annual performance bond or Letter of Credit. Councilman Rivera moved to initiate an amendment to the Franchise Agreement with Westown Disposal to omit the requirement for a performance bond. This was seconded by Councilman Wilson and passed unanimously. City City Council Meeting Minutes February 8, 2010 Page # 11

Attorney Johnson will prepare the amendment if that is the option that Westown would like to pursue and will agree to pay the legal fees. REPORTS: CITY ATTORNEY - City Attorney Johnson discussed requirements for public hearings on re-zoning matters. Idaho State Code requires a public hearing at Planning & Zoning, but makes it optional at City Council level. Our City Code requires hearings at both levels. Attorney Johnson suggested that we amend our code so that the Council can opt out of a public hearing when there is no opposition or comments on an issue. The Council agreed, so Attorney Johnson will prepare an amendment for the next P&Z meeting. Since this is a zoning issue, P & Z will have to hold a public hearing on it. The Wilder Economic Development Council has requested to come back as a committee under the City Council. They are unable to pay the cost of E&O insurance for their Board of Directors. Attorney Johnson advised that WEDC would have to be budgeted for and they would have to comply with all of the open meeting laws. City Council would also have to approve all of their events. City Clerk/Treasurer Colleen Cook reported that it would not be hard to add WEDC as a new department within the General Fund. Attorney Johnson suggested checking with the International Chapter of Chambers of Commerce about insurances. CITY CLERK / TREASURER - Colleen Cook provided a written report for the Council. Pioneer Estates Lot Purchase - The County reimbursed the City for the taxes for $351.32. Printer Purchase - We put $2,000.00 in this year s budget to purchase two new office printers and share out our old printers to other departments. In an effort to cut expenses, we purchased an HP printer for $600.00 to replace Carmen s old printer. We will save approximately $1,400.00 by only replacing the one printer this year. January Tax Revenues - Colleen Cook provided a comparison of the January Property Tax payments we received for 2009 and 2010. We received $269.00 more this January than last. We received $519.00 less this January on State Revenue Sharing. COUNCIL MEMBER REPORTS: Recreation Program Councilman Rivera and Councilwoman Godina reported that they will do the registration for the summer recreation program at the end of February at City Hall. Councilman Rivera is the director. MAYOR S REPORT - Mayor Bechtel asked Attorney Johnson if the information for our meeting packets was getting turned in on time. Attorney Johnson said they are working on a system to get information to us on time. Mayor Bechtel announced that there will be a meeting on the Wilder Post Office on February 23, 2010 at 6:30 P.M. at Mercer Hall. Hunter Roop is the Post Office representative and he will be here to discuss the Post Office. City Council Meeting Minutes February 8, 2010 Page # 12

Mayor Bechtel reviewed bills that are of interest to cities being considered by our legislature to update our City Council members. Mayor Bechtel reported on the F35 Fighter Jets. Gowen Field and Mountain Home Air Force Base are in the final running for the training programs for these jets. This would generate millions of dollars to our Idaho economy.
