CONSENT AGENDA: Accounts Payable Report: Exhibit A Minutes: September 03 and 10, 2026 – Regular Meetings It was moved by Council Member Boyle and seconded by Council Member Oswald to approve the Consent Agenda Wheeler, yes; Oswald, yes; Wessel, yes; Boyle, yes; Fullmer, absent; Hamberlin, yes. Motion passes unanimously with vote by roll call. PROCLAMATIONS: 1. Constitution Week PUBLIC COMMENT REGARDING ITEMS NOT ON AGENDA (3-minute limit) Lorana Johnson-3020 Owen Street, Ammon ID. Neighbors and herself, concerned about the noise and lights of the stadium at Hillcrest, drove home at 11:30 pm and the lights were still on. Just wondering if there is something the City can do, or do I need to reach out to the school? Mayor Powell suggested going to the school board meeting and voicing her concerns as well as stating he can reach out to the district and remind them we do have a noise ordinance. Tom Hunsaker- 2925 Carolyn Lane Some years ago, I learned a little about the process, he contacted the administration about a concern and they said to go to the principal. The PA system is very loud; you can hear it in McCowin Park. You can step outside City Hall and hear it, you may not be able to make out the words but you can hear it. ACTION ITEMS: 1. Greater Idaho Falls Transit (GIFT) Contract for Services - (Micah Austin, City Administrator) City Administrator Austin stated as budget the contract is for $73,000 it is a one year contract. You will see in the final contract you will see the service area map. The service area does include all skilled nursing facilities in the City of Ammon. It also includes the original townsite, up and down Hitt Road all Ammon City Council Regular Meeting 09.17.2026 Page 2 of 6 Ammon City Council October 01, 2026 Page 3 of 86 the way from Lincoln to 49th Street. Mayor Powell stated we felt this was a good start, get through the first year and collect the data and then go from there. Ian Turner (Board Chair)-Idaho Falls Council Member Oswald asked about the cancellation of the contract, it states we would need to cancel by April 1st. However, it says the CPI adjustment is expected by March 1st, but if not available you will get it to us as soon as you can. If it is not available by March 1st and we only have until April 1st, that doesn’t give us enough time to make a decision. Mr. Turner stated there has only been one time in his career where CPI hasn’t been produced by March 1st. If that was the case we would sit down and hash it out, that would be a very unique circumstance, our purpose is to provide a service and we want to be good partners. City Attorney Weston Davis stated that if there was a delay in receiving the information required to make a decision to terminate or continue the contract, he is sure GIFT would be willing to recognize that we didn’t receive the information in a timely manner to make an informed decision. City Council Member Wessel asks why April 1st is the date and not August 1st. City Administrator Austin stated it is for budgeting purposes, and gives everyone time to make changes to upcoming budgets. Ian Turner stated that it is a challenge not knowing the service area in advance and making sure we have trained staff to serve. Moving the date back a month wouldn’t make a huge difference. Mayor Powell stated we want to be a good partner to GIFT, we understand that the Federal Government can shut down at any time and has in the past. But we can work together. A lot of people are excited and request rides. This is going to be a positive thing for the community. It was moved by Council Member Fullmer and seconded by Council Member Wheeler to approve the Greater Idaho Falls Transit (GIFT) Contract for Services and authorize the Mayor to sign Wheeler, yes; Oswald, yes; Wessel, yes; Boyle, yes; Fullmer, yes; Hamberlin, yes. Motion passes unanimously with vote by roll call. 2. Approval of the Audit Engagement Letter - (Jennifer Belfield, Finance Director) Finance Director Jennifer Belfield this is the annual audit engagement letter, this is standard procedure before services begin. The contract was $44,000, which was a misprint plus a 6% technology fee and travel costs. We do not need a single audit this year but next year we will need one because of the 1st street project, so FY 2027 will cost more. For FY 2025 the audit cost was $46,704.92, for FY 24 the cost was $44,212.50, for FY 23 the cost was $40,600 and FY 22 was $43,500. Mayor Powell asks when the audit starts, Jennifer stated as soon as you sign the letter they will open an online portal for files to be uploaded, so basically now. October is period 13, what the auditors do typically start the second week of October and then into January. It will take them a few weeks to prepare the findings and then it will be presented to Council typically the 2nd week of February. It was moved by Council Member Boyle and seconded by Council Member Hamberlin to approve the Audit Engagement Letter and allow the Mayor to sign Ammon City Council Regular Meeting 09.17.2026 Page 3 of 6 Ammon City Council October 01, 2026 Page 4 of 86 Wheeler, yes; Oswald, yes; Wessel, yes; Boyle, yes; Fullmer, yes; Hamberlin, yes. Motion passes unanimously with vote by roll call. 3. Consideration of Resolution 2026-018-Social Media Publishing Policy - (Micah Austin, City Administrator) City Administrator Austin addressed the Council and stated the changes were made at the last council meeting. The restricted content review policy is in section 3. Approved content can go out without approval, we want the good to go out to the community, we don’t want to restrict that content. It was moved by Council Member Fullmer and seconded by Council Member Oswald to approve Resolution 2026-018 Social Media Publishing Policy Wheeler, yes; Oswald, yes; Wessel, yes; Boyle, yes; Fullmer, yes; Hamberlin, yes. Motion passes unanimously with vote by roll call. 4. Consideration of J-U-B Capital Improvement Plan Contract - (Morgan Stewart, City Engineer) City Engineer Morgan Stewart addressed the City Council by saying she has no additional information from the last meeting. Council Member Boyle asked about the timeline, Sean Hoisington stated the expected timeline is 8 months but it isn’t going to be dragged out, if it moves faster and we can get it done sooner than we will. Mayor Powell asked how long Post Falls took, Sean stated it was about 2 years. Mayor Powell stated but they are about twice the size. Sean stated they are roughly twice the size with streets as well. The difference is with Post Falls we did actual zoomed in traffic counts on about 80 intersections. You guys have about a quarter of that. This will be a simpler process. Mayor Powell asked City Engineer Stewart how much data we have ready to provide, she stated we have some but some will need to be updated. Sean stated the comprehensive plan will be a good source of information. It was moved by Council President Wessel and seconded by Council Member Fullmer to approve the J-U-B Capital Improvement Plan Contract and authorize the Mayor to sign Wheeler, yes; Oswald, yes; Wessel, yes; Boyle, yes; Fullmer, yes; Hamberlin, yes. Motion passes unanimously with vote by roll call. 5. Consideration of the Bonneville County Fire District Fuel Use Contract - (Micah Austin, City Administrator) Fire Chief Jon Molbert - on the phone City Administrator Austin stated that two years ago the original contract was signed, this was done to save on the bulk fuel price and to work on building their own fueling station. At this time they have not been able to build their own fueling station. The council at the time was happy to sign the contract but did state the Fire District could not build a fueling station and this fire station next door. City Administrator Austin stated the system works great, they are issued fobs and they pull up to the pump and fill up using their fobs, which tracks exactly how much they use. There is a 9% administrative fee they pay as well. Council President Wessel stated he doesn’t feel that covers the depreciation of the pumps. City Administrator Austin stated we are not necessarily trying to recover those costs; the 9% is to cover administrative costs. Ammon City Council Regular Meeting 09.17.2026 Page 4 of 6 Ammon City Council October 01, 2026 Page 5 of 86 Fire Chief Molbert stated the Fire District also covers a portion of the maintenance costs as they come up. Finance Director Jennifer Belfield stated yes that is correct, it is not much but they do help to cover the maintenance and repair costs as they are incurred. City Administrator Austin asked Fire Chief Molbert to have an updated timeline for setting up a fueling station for the Fire District. The Fire District wants to purchase land to build a new fire station and a fueling station located there. The goal is to break ground in the Spring of 2027. Council President Wessel asks why they didn’t build a fuel station at the Fire Station located on North of Lincoln Road. Fire Chief Molbert stated it is complicated, we don’t currently staff that station, we contract with Idaho Falls to staff that station. It is more convenient to put a fueling station closer to where the majority of the service area is. It was moved by Council Member Oswald and seconded by Council Member Wheeler to approve the Bonneville County Fire District Fuel Use Contract and authorize the Mayor to sign Wheeler, yes; Oswald, yes; Wessel, yes; Boyle, yes; Fullmer, yes; Hamberlin, yes. Motion passes unanimously with vote by roll call. DISCUSSION ITEMS: 1. Street Levy Education City Attorney Weston Davis spoke about the do’s and don’ts for City Council members when speaking to citizens about the upcoming Street Levy on the ballot. Don’t speak on behalf of the City. All statements need to be factual, not to persuade the public, just to educate. The Idaho State Statute does allow you to have your own opinion, when posting on social media please make sure to state you are speaking on behalf of yourself and not the City. Be very careful when spending funds, you are not allowed to spend City Funds. Mayor Powell as you go out and voicing your own opinion, please do not use any Ammon logos or anything related to the City. The consequences are it could get overturned. City Attorney Weston Davis stated if you have questions and What If’s please call me. 2. Miscellaneous Mayor Powell-Will be at Stinger Field tomorrow from 9:30am-12pm with 6th graders if anyone would like to give him a break. Council Member Oswald- What happened with the explosion that went off on 21st. Mayor Powell stated it was an estate sale, they found a box of dynamite up in the attic, it was walked out to the field and everyone was told to get away. They called out the bomb squad and fire department and they set it off. Council Member Wheeler- Meeting with the Fire District they are talking about 45th & 65th for the location of the new Fire Station, it is about 2 acres. They will have the results from the Feasibility study at the next meeting. It was a very busy fire season. City Administrator Austin-City of Ammon has a few things in the legal section of the paper. The Fee Resolution is in the paper as well as a few other things. Ammon City Council Regular Meeting 09.17.2026 Page 5 of 6 Ammon City Council October 01, 2026 Page 6 of 86 City Clerk Joanna Dahm - We have the Fee Study as well as the RFP for the Bulk Fuel Delivery and the RFP for On-Call Maintenance Services all currently posted. City Planner Donovan - Traffic Commission, neighbors from Midway came to the meeting and are thankful for park lights going off at 10pm. They want our help with noise on the roadway. Major complaints are from people stopping on Southwick and then revving their engines and going again, as well as people in the park not behaving themselves. They did request speed bumps, we did let them know if we put in speed bumps it is going to create more noise because they will be slowing down for the speedbumps then revving up and going again. They were asking for a 4-way stop on Rawson and Midway, we let them know that is not warranted. There was a request on Silvermaple from a couple residents who have a hard time seeing as they back out of their driveways, we are going to put up mirrors that will facilitate those residents to see better. It is a 90 degree turn not an intersection.

Summary of Analysis 1. Title 5, Chapter 4 Title: Amends the chapter title from “Dog Control” to “Dog Licensing and Regulations” to represent the City’s licensing and animal welfare standards. 2. Section 5-4-2 Licensing: Amends the service dog provisions to reflect compliance with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities ACT (ADA) which states under federal law “....A public entity shall not require documentation, such as proof that the animal has been certified, trained, or licensed as a service animal.” The license fee for service dogs also remains exempt. Emotional support animals (ESAs) do not qualify for the exemption. 3. Section 5-4-4 Annual License Fee: Shifts licensing from a fixed calendar year expiration date to a rolling one, two, or three-year term from the date of issuance, depending on the one, two, or three- year license term selected at purchase. Dog licenses renewed later than 30 days past expiration are subject to a late fee (currently set at $10) which replaces the uncollected double fee penalty, and removes the prorated license fee to match our internal policies. 4. Section 5-4-5 License Tags: Amends the City Clerk to the City or designee to issue the license. 5. Section 5-4-6 Record of License: Updates official recordkeeping responsibilities to the City and a copy may be maintained by the Executive Director of the contracted animal shelter. 6. Section 5-4-9 License: A) Reassigns license revocation authority from the City Clerk to Animal & Code Enforcement Director. E) Amends the code to read proof of current rabies vaccination and spay/neuter status to be presented at time of licensing or as requested to verify the spay/neuter status of a pet. Financial Impact - The City will not incur additional costs. Transitioning to rolling expiration cycles eliminates year-end administration burden and is appealing to the public. Collecting the late fee for late renewals replaces the uncollected late fee and encourages compliance. Motion I move to approve Ordinance 751 to amend Title 5, Chapter 4 Title and Sections 5-4-2, 5-4-4, 5-4-5, 5-4-6, and 5-4-9 of the Ammon Municipal Code and waive the three readings. 2135 South Ammon Rd., Ammon, Idaho 83406 City Hall: (208) 612-4000 www.cityofammon.us Page | 1 Ammon City Council October 01, 2026 Page 74 of 86 Attachments: 1.
