Council'members were reminded to attend a meeting in Rexburg on Dec. 9, 1975,
regarding setting up, the East Central Idaho Development District. The newly
elected officials were also invited to go to this meeting.
, A report by Councilman Swensen indicated that, as a result of a meeting of the
Flood Control Committee called by the County Civil Defense Director, the water
will be shut off in Sand Creek and Willow Creek for the remainder of the winter
months. This action was prompted by the heavy, snowfall and quick thaw that
occurred last weekend. In response to a comment by Mayor-elect George Weh-
mann that he was at the meeting but could not determine under what authority the
Flood Control Committee operates, Mayor Turnbow explained that the Civil
Defense Director (and the committee) are given authority under the Federal
Emergency Act.
The city-sponsored basketball progr,am will start this Saturday with Scott Maeser
in charge, according to Councilman Cheney, with the pay for the manager and
referees to be the same as last year ($2.00 per hour for manager and $1. 50 per
hour for referees). The cost for using the Ammon School gymn~sium should be
about the same as last year also. A fee of $4.00 will be charged for each parti-
cipant, and the registration information will go out through the school.
The Council was asked to set a fee schedule for posting bond on citations
issued for parking in the street or on the sidewalk where posted for "No Park-
ing". It was recommended that the Clerk check with the City of Idaho Falls
and use the same amounts as are charged there. (This was found to be $2.00
per violation if paid within 15 days, with a penalty added according to the
number of days of delinquency. )
Claims were approved for payment. The meeting was adjourned at 11:00 P. M.

Minutes of the meeting of December 3, 1975, were approved as typed later in
the meeting.
The meeting was opened as a Public Hearing on several zoning matters. Interested
citizens present were: Hazen Olsen, Ray Butler, Jesse H. Crow, Reuben Waters,
Farrell Adamson, Lee Dille, Craig L. Mowrey, and an out-of-town visitor Harlin
Summers. Representing property owners and developers were: Steve Loveland,
Richard Skidmore, Garth Cunningham, Rance Bare, and Attorney Franklin Smith.
The first matter of business was a zone change from R-l to R-2 on Lots 5 and,6,
Block 7, Original Townsite, as requested by developer Harold Loveland. It was
explained that the request was made with the intention of adding on to the existing
duplexes in that location on Owen Street (which is considered to be a reasonable
way to utilize the narrow strip of adjoining land), and would allow 2, 3, and 4
family dwellings in the future. Determination was made that Mr. Loveland is the
owner of the east one-half of the two lots, and that Reuben Waters who owns the
