Resolution to approve intergovernmental agreement to receive
donation of Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting apparatus from the
City of Boise
26-425
The Idaho Falls Regional Airport included acquiring an Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting apparatus
in its fiscal year 2027 budget. The City of Boise has declared a 2009 Oshkosh Striker 3000 as
surplus property. The apparatus is obligated by Federal Aviation Administration funding
requiring the apparatus to be donated to an eligible airport. They offered this to Idaho
airports and have agreed to donate it to the Idaho Falls Regional Airport as an eligible
recipient. This donation requires no funds to be transferred to the City of Boise. However, the
vehicle will be transported at the Idaho Falls Regional Airport’s expense, to include any
required repairs necessary to place the apparatus into service.
Approve the resolution approving the intergovernmental agreement for the donation of an
Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting apparatus from the City of Boise with a fair market value of
$430,000.00 and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the resolution (or take other
action deemed appropriate).

☒Approval/Authorization/Ratification
Action(s) Requested:
Approve the expenditure of $227,811.76 to upgrade/update the Tyler Technologies Public Safety Suite
software and hardware (or take other action deemed appropriate).
Description, Background Information, Purpose:
Bonneville County has a contract with Tyler Technologies for the Public Safety Suite. The City pays a certain
share of the cost for this contract. The Tyler Technologies Public Safety Suite software and hardware will be
updated and upgraded. The City’s share of the associated costs for the update/upgrade is $227,811.76. This
upgrade/update is the most economical, fastest, and most logical solution for continued operations and
agency interoperability. Cost savings come from sharing the cost between agencies, and a reduction of man
hours in implementation.
This will result in an updated and more capable version of the current system. This includes Computer Aided
Dispatch (CAD), electronic ticketing that ties directly into the courts, warrants, jail, fire & EMS, law
enforcement, analytics, and records management that the Police department and Sheriff’s office have been
using for the past ten years.
This upgrade moves us to a cloud-hosted public safety solution, that is compliant with state and federal
reporting mandates, providing all of our public safety agencies and personnel with real-time information,
instant data sharing across jurisdictions, and provides intelligence-led responses, so help arrives for our
citizens faster and more prepared.

PROPOSAL
“The principal product you have to sell is the ice itself.”

CITY OF IDAHO FALLS
ATTN:
Roberto Abreo
Recreation Superintendent
City of Idaho Falls Parks & Recreation
RAbreo@idahofalls.gov
Work: (208) 612-8489
Maintaining an ice surface presents a multitude of challenges. Having efficient and reliable resurfacing
equipment should not be one of them. Driven by our founder’s commitment to innovation, we put our product to
the test in the harsh environment it will call home. Every feature is deliberately designed to make resurfacing
easier and to ensure that the end result is an exceptional sheet of ice. Built by hand. One at a time. The result is
an ice resurfacing machine legendary for its quality, durability and superior performance.
MODEL 546:
Proven hydrostatic performance and significant fuel savings provide the industry’s lowest emissions and a
cleaner arena environment. An exceptionally efficient 1.6 L engine can be configured for gasoline or propane
fuel. On-dash diagnostics with programmed maintenance notifications provide engine performance data on the
go. The hydrostatic transmission and powerful double pump for the augers deliver strong conveyor performance
at any speed. Our unrivaled down pressure system ensures that all you leave behind is perfect.
INNOVATION:
Our commitment to constant innovation is an investment in the product. We apply decades of experience
working with facility owners and operators into every decision we make. Automated processes provide a
consistent result and reduce the chance for operator error. Opportunities to retrieve and display data from the
machine provide a new tool in rink management. The incremental and continued introduction of new and better
technologies to our ice resurfacing equipment facilitates savings of time and valuable resources.
QUALITY:
Zamboni sets the standard of quality to which the industry is held. The Zamboni Company holds itself to an
even higher standard with ongoing assessment and meticulous quality control, resulting in products which
consistently produce the finest sheet of ice even after many years of use. Our rugged four-wheel drive chassis is
hand-built using strong all-welded steel tubing. Premium materials and components are used throughout. We
continually collaborate with our customers to ensure the products that will ultimately end up in their facility
exceed the high expectations of quality associated with our brand.
Zamboni 546 Proposal
ID Falls - Zamboni 546 - October 16, 2026
Page 2 of 4
VALUE:
Zamboni has a well-deserved reputation as the Industry Leader. One which we don’t take for granted. Our
products have the lowest cost of operation and maintain the highest residual value. A network of Zamboni
Authorized Distributors and our own Customer Service teams provide local service and support for our products.
In the world of ice, time is money and unreliable equipment can be a show-stopper. Yet another reason that
worldwide, more facility operators choose Zamboni for their ice resurfacing needs. Nothing else is even close.

Machine specifications are available online.

BID RESULTS AND PROPOSED AWARDING OF BIDNET BID IF-26-020
Explanation: Historically, Water Division has awarded bids by group rather than by line.
OFFICIAL BIDNET BIDS
All vendors have been warned that this will be the last bid that the division will award by group.
Supplier
Bid
All future bids by the division will be awarded by line.
Ferguson

For this bid, Ferguson won the Group 1 of 1, sum total bid. However, they quoted an unauthorized alternative maufacturer for lines 4 and 5.

INTRODUCTION
PURPOSE
The purpose of this manual is to establish an acceptable policy and operational procedures
for snow and ice control on public streets under the jurisdiction of the City of Idaho Falls.
This policy provides a uniform understanding of the priorities and procedures used to
combat accumulation of snow and ice on City streets.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of these policies and procedures is to provide adequate traction for vehicles
properly equipped for winter driving conditions. Priority is given to streets which carry the
largest traffic volume. Limited resources preclude service on lower priority streets until
higher priority streets have been completed. It should be expected that during storms of
high intensity or long duration and during non-regular working hours, drivers on lower
priority streets will encounter snow-packed or icy conditions. Snow and ice control
operations will continue during regular hours and/or until all streets have passable
pavement or when plowing and sanding is no longer effective.
SCOPE
This policy applies only to public streets under the jurisdiction of Idaho Falls and
agreements with Bonneville County and Idaho Transportation Department. The City has
over 797approximately 802 lane miles of arterial, collector and residential streets that it
maintains for snow removal.
Snow removal for some state highways is provided by the Idaho Transportation Department
(ITD) and include US-20 and I-15 within city limits.
In order to provide for efficient snow removal services on urban streets, the City has
entered into a cooperative maintenance agreement with the Idaho Transportation
Department. Under this agreement, Idaho Falls is responsible for snow and ice control on
Broadway, Yellowstone, Northgate Mile, Sunnyside Road and Holmes Avenue within City
limits. The agreement is included within the appendices.
Snow removal from City-owned parking lots is provided by the Parks and Recreation
Department or private contractors.
City ordinance assigns the responsibility of sidewalk snow removal to the adjacent
property owner. (Idaho Falls City Code Title 8 Chapter 10)
2
II.
POLICIES
RESPONSIBILITY
The responsibility for implementing the snow and ice control policy lies with the Street
Superintendent, or his designee during off hours. The Public Works Director may choose to
authorize the use of additional resources when conditions warrant.
TRAINING
Prior to the start of the snow season, the Street Division will conduct training for personnel
that will be involved in snow control activities. The training will consist of classroom and
hands-on equipment training, including the operation of sanders, snowplows, front-end
loaders and other equipment as needed.
WEATHER MONITORING
Street Division supervisors will use the National Weather Service daily forecasts to monitor
weather conditions and will schedule snowplow crews based on these forecasts.
COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS
The Street Division will monitor conditions whenever there is potential of ice or snow
conditions developing on City roadways. The Police Department also reports icy conditions
to the Street Division after regular working hours. When snow or ice begins accumulating
on the streets the Street Superintendent, or his designee during off hours, will authorize
commencement of plowing and/or sanding operations as conditions warrant
PRIORITIES
A limited number of resources and the need to provide the greatest level of safety and
benefit to the traveling public, in an efficient manner, necessitate that priority be given to
certain heavily used streets above others more minor in nature. Therefore, streets with
higher use have a higher priority for snow removal service. Minor streets which require
proportionally more time for snow removal for the amount of traffic served have lower
priority.
City streets have been divided into the following three snow removal priority categories:
PRIORITY 1: These are arterial and major collector streets, generally with a right-
of- way width exceeding 60 feet and average daily traffic greater than 5,000 and
includes approximately 237 lane miles.
PRIORITY 2: These are generally minor collector streets, typically with a
pavement width of at least 43 feet. Included in this category are streets serving
3
emergency response facilities, schools and streets with hills and sharp curves
where low traction may cause hazardous driving conditions and includes
approximately 116 lane miles.
PRIORITY 3: All other streets not designated as either Priority 1 or 2
streets, split into Zone A and B, and includes approximately 444 449 lane
miles.
Street priority snow removal maps are included in the appendix and are available for review
on the City’s website.
DEVIATIONS FROM POLICY
Deviations from standard policies and procedures may occur due to unusual or
extraordinary circumstances. Every winter storm has unique characteristics such as storm
intensity, duration, wind, temperature and moisture content that influence the methodology
used in response to each storm.
Deviations and exceptions from the general priorities and procedures may be made when,
in the judgment of the responsible authority, such deviations will best support meeting
established objectives and ensuring public safety.
III.
OPERATIONS PLAN
EQUIPMENT RESOURCES

RESPONSE PLAN
When weather forecasts indicate a pending storm is anticipated to deposit snow within the
City, the Street Division will begin applying salt-brine to Priority 1 and 2 streets to aid in ice
and snow control.
Priority 1 streets are the first streets that receive plowing and salting. Once Priority 1
streets are deemed safe for travel during or after a snow event, snow removal operations
shift to Priority 2 streets. Once Priority 2 streets have been addressed focus is shifted to
Priority 3 streets that are completed during normal daily schedule hours. If there is a
snow accumulation of more than four (4) inches on the road, plows will continue snow
6
removal activities on Priority 3 streets during off hours. If during snow removal operations
on lower priority streets, conditions deteriorate on Priority 1 or 2 streets, focus will be
shifted back to these higher priority streets as necessitated by the snow event.
ZONE A
Zone A is the Priority 3 area within the City bounded by and including the following
streets:
Starting at the corner of East 1st Street and Holmes Avenue; thence running south
along Holmes Avenue to East 17th Street; thence running west along 17th Street
and along Pancheri Drive to the Snake River; thence running north along the east
bank of the Snake River to West Elva Street; thence running east along Elva Street
to the railroad tracks; thence running south along the railroad tracks to East 1st
Street; thence running east along 1st Street to the point of beginning (excluding the
Downtown Area, Nighttime Snow Removal Streets, and any Priority 1 or 2 street
within such area).
ZONE A PARKING RESTRICTIONS AND PLOWING
Due to the narrowness and abundance of on-street parking Zone A is completed in a
two-day period with north-south street and east-west streets plowed on alternating
days.
North-south streets are considered any street running in a direction within 10
degrees of true north (e.g., Water Ave., Alice Ave., Cottage Place, Lee Ave., Sage
Ave.)
East-west streets are considered any street running in a direction within 10 degrees
of true east and west (e.g., 2nd Street, L Street, Maple Street)
Parking restrictions for Zone A are as follows:
North-South Streets. Beginning at a Snow Event, no parking from eight o’clock
(8:00) a.m. local time until five o’clock (5:00) p.m. local time on any even
calendar day of the month (e.g., two, four, six, eight, …) or until snow removal
activities are determined by the Street Superintendent to be completed for the
Snow Event.
East-West Streets. Beginning at a Snow Event, no parking from eight o’clock
(8:00) a.m. local time until five o’clock (5:00) p.m. local time on any odd
calendar day of the month (e.g. one, three, five, seven, …) or until snow removal
activities are determined by the Street Superintendent to be completed for the
Snow Event.
7
Due to the narrowness of Zone A streets vehicles parked in violation of these
restrictions will be relocated to the nearest opposing direction street (e.g. vehicle
relocated from an East-West street to a North-South street or vise-versa). Every
effort will be made to give a minimum of 24-hour notice to Zone A residents of these
restrictions.
Informational press releases, media interviews, social media posts, text alerts, City
website notifications, and other notifications as deemed appropriate will be used to
notify Zone A residents.
CONTINUATION AND COMPLETION
Although no snow event is exactly the same, it usually takes 12-24 hours AFTER the
snow stops falling to plow and salt Priority 1 and 2 streets.
Residential streets generally take an additional 48 hours to plow, assuming there are
no interruptions to move back to Priority 1 or 2 streets.
During major storms, traffic on low-priority streets usually causes the snow to become
packed or icy, before it can be plowed. In this case it may take days or even weeks to
remove the packed snow and ice from these streets. When snow has become compacted
on low-priority streets and plowing is ineffective due to low ambient temperatures, nighttime
sanding and plowing operations may be discontinued until normal working hours and the
normal duty schedule is resumed.
PRE-STORM APPLICATION OF SALT BRINE
The Street Division will begin applying salt-brine to Priority 1 and 2 streets to aid in snow
removal when weather forecasts indicate a pending storm is anticipated to deposit snow
within the City. This application can generally be completed within 16 hours utilizing three
(3) truck mounted applicators. This application helps prevent the bonding of snow and ice
to the road surface on these higher priority streets.
SALT AND SANDING
Salting is generally completed in conjunction with plowing in conformance with the
priority road response system. Sanding alone is conducted when roads are icy, or
plowing is ineffective on snow-packed roads and in residential areas.
Once operations have begun, salting will continue until the priority streets have had
traction restored. Depending on the weather conditions, arterial and collector streets may
receive multiple applications along with other high use intersections or streets with
inclines.
MATERIALS
8
For salting operations, salt will be used in different amounts, depending on
pavement/air temperature and the amount of precipitation. For sanding operations
generally, a mixture consisting of four (4) parts sand to one (1) part salt is used to
prevent the sand from clumping and/or freezing.
SALT STORAGE
The salt storage facility at 2575 Hemmert Avenue has a capacity of approximately 2,000
tons. Orders for salt delivery are regularly made to keep the storage facility at capacity.
BRIDGES
The Street Division is responsible for the maintenance of 55 56 bridges within City limits.
Bridges often become icy before the adjacent streets because the ambient air temperature
is lower beneath the bridges than the ground temperature beneath the pavement. Bridges
are monitored for icy conditions by Street Division personnel during normal working hours
and after-hours by the Police Department.
Salt brine is usually applied to bridge decks on Priority 1 and 2 streets before a snow or ice
event to prevent the snow and ice from bonding to the bridge deck. If ice is present, salt or
a salt and sand mixture may be spread to increase traction and melt ice.
CUL-DE-SACS
In an effort to become more efficient, crews will make one (1) to two (2) passes around the
perimeter of the cul-de-sac with a snowplow, pushing the snow to the middle of the cul-de-
sac. Snow will be removed from the cul-de-sac at a later date by Street Division employees
during the normal daily schedule. This is a low priority activity that is generally the last
activity to be completed after every snow event.
LOADING AND HAULING OF SNOW
Loading and hauling snow from City streets is the most expensive and time-consuming
snow removal activity undertaken by the Street Division. This practice is minimized to the
maximum extent possible and will only be implemented when there are no other
alternatives to keep streets open, to maintain access to adjacent properties or other
extenuating circumstances. A map depicting the method of snow removal is included
within the appendices. This map will be reviewed and updated on an annual basis.
PUBLIC RELATIONS
Providing information to the public is a vital part of the snow removal process. Residents
need to know how they can help facilitate snow removal and what to expect in terms of a
response by the Street Division to winter storms. Messages sent to the public can range
9
from simple requests to remove parked vehicles from the street to notification of street
closures, or other severe conditions.
Prior to snow season each year, the City will convey information regarding how to sign up
for notifications, where to find information, parking restrictions, sidewalk snow removal
requirements, prohibitions against throwing or blowing snow on to City streets and snow
removal priorities.
During storms, the Street Division office will be staffed appropriately to manage requests
for service according to storm intensity.
The Street Division will work closely with the City’s Public Information Officers to
convey information regarding snow removal activities as needed and to request
resident compliance with snow removal parking restrictions.
To sign up for notifications for snow removal parking restrictions text snowIF to 38276
or go to www.idahofalls.gov, click on the blue SIGN UP button, and follow the
instructions.
DISPATCHING REQUESTS FOR SERVICE
Since snowplow operators are already trained to follow priorities established by policies
and procedures contained herein, it is inefficient to respond to individual concerns
before allowing operators to respond in accordance with existing policies.
Telephone operators will log requests for service and periodically forward these logs to
snow removal supervisors for review and potential action. Supervisors will use these logs
to direct operators to areas of concern, after they have achieved the goals established
within existing snow removal policies.
Supervisors will be notified immediately of hazardous conditions or new snow accumulation
on higher priority streets, roadways impacted by drifting snow or other emergency
conditions.

IV.
OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES FOR DIFFERENT STORM
INTENSITIES
The following procedures describe implementation of the Operations Plan for various
storm intensities. These procedures are intended as an aid to supervisors and
management staff to ensure essential actions are taken. Variations to these
procedures may be made by the Street Superintendent, or his designate, to best
meet the demands of changing storm events. These procedures will also help
provide residents with a better understanding of how the City manages snow
removal.

It is dangerous and difficult to plow narrow streets that are congested with parked vehicles.
Plowing around parked cars limits the effectiveness of snow removal activities. Some
narrow streets may not be plowed if equipment cannot safely drive down them. The most
helpful thing residents can do to facilitate snow removal is to move vehicles off the street
and encourage their neighbors to do the same.
To facilitate snow removal, City ordinance prohibits on-street parking whenever there is a
qualifying Snow Event. A Snow Event is an occurrence in which more than two (2) inches
of snow accumulates on the roadway as determined by the City and as posted on the
City’s official website (www.idahofalls.gov). Any vehicles parked on streets within Idaho
Falls during a Snow Event will be subject to ticketing, relocation, and towing in
accordance with snow removal parking restrictions. Visit the City website for updates and
more information (Idaho Falls City Code Title 9 Chapter 5)
SNOW BLOWING
Blowing, throwing or pushing snow from driveways and walks into the street creates
additional work for snowplow operators and may create significant traffic hazards. Some
businesses and residents have pushed large piles of snow into the street, hoping it would
melt quickly. The snow pile is a hazard itself, but the ice created when the melting snow
refreezes can make the situation even more dangerous. Move snow onto landscaped
areas in the yard or parking lot. City Code prohibits placing snow upon any public street,
sidewalk, easement, right-of-way, or public way, alleyway or sidewalk. (Idaho Falls City
Code Title 8 Chapter 10)
CUL-DE-SACS
There are approximately 478 484 cul-de-sacs in Idaho Falls. It takes considerably longer
to clear snow from cul-de-sacs than other “uninterrupted” stretches of City streets.
Because of the high cost-to-benefit ratio, cul-de-sacs and dead-end streets have the
lowest priority for snow removal. Cul-de-sacs will be plowed, but it will likely be several
days after a major storm ends before snow is removed from the middle of cul-de-sac.
SIDEWALKS
Snowplow operators try to avoid placing snow on sidewalks, but in some instances this
may not be possible. The adjacent property owner is responsible to keep sidewalks clear.
16
WHAT CAN I DO IF I AM ELDERLY AND/OR DISABLED AND CAN’T SHOVEL SNOW
FROM MY SIDEWALK?
The City does not have the resources to provide snow removal from sidewalks.
Please plan to make arrangements with a relative, friend or neighbor for help. If you,
your business, organization, family or other volunteer group would like to assist with
sidewalk snow removal in our community, we would recommend starting a snow
removal volunteer project through www.justserve.org. Once a project is created,
those who need assistance can go to this website to find assistance.
RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAYS
One of the most frequent concerns in the removal of snow from public streets is snow
being deposited at the approach to residential driveways during plowing operations. As
plows travel along streets, the snow accumulated on the plow blade has no place to go but
on to the adjacent street landscaping areas and in driveways. The more snow that has
fallen, the greater the problem encountered. As a service to the residents of Idaho Falls,
an approximate 10-foot-wide section will be opened by City crews at the driveway
approach to allow access from the driveway to the street in case of an emergency. A
small windrow of snow may still remain as the volume of snow may spill out past the
gate on the equipment.
Residents can help this situation by piling snow they have shoveled from their
driveways on to the right side facing the street, instead of placing it on both sides at the
end of the driveway. By doing so operators can avoid carrying piles from the “upstream”
portion of the street back across driveways.
ALLEYWAYS
Alleyways are plowed on an as needed basis by the Sanitation Division for sanitation
vehicles only.
MAIL DELIVERY
City snow removal operators make every effort to remove snow as close to the curb as
practical and to provide access to mailboxes for postal carriers. However, it is not always
possible to provide ideal conditions and not damage mailboxes with the size and type of
equipment the City operates. Therefore, the final cleaning adjacent to mailboxes is the
responsibility of each resident.
If there is an accumulation of snow blocking your mailbox, either remove the snow or set
out a temporary box, bucket, plastic tub or garbage receptacle that can be reached by
your letter carrier and label it with your address and the words “U.S. Mail.”
17
BROKEN TREE LIMBS
During heavy storms, tree limbs may be broken. Please call (208) 612-8490 to report
limbs blocking traffic.
Broken limbs outside the roadway are the responsibility of the tree owner. Limbs can be cut
and bundled for bulky waste pickup or taken to the Bonneville County Hatch Pit. Call the
Sanitation Division to schedule pickup at
(208) 612-8491. Branches and limbs must be tied in bundles less than four (4) feet in length
and not more than 50 pounds in weight per bundle.
PROPERTY DAMAGE CLAIMS
Incidents involving contact between City equipment and private property typically occur
within the public right-of-way. Although the public right-of-way is maintained by the
adjacent property owner, there are times when the right-of-way is the only available space
to store excess snow removed from the roads. A City right-of-way is an easement which is
a privilege or a right, distinct from ownership. It is commonly defined as roadways and
alleys however sidewalks, curbs and gutters, landscaping and parking strips, and driveway
approaches are included in public rights-of-way. Those areas may be necessary to serve
as excess snow storage, therefore, actions taken by operators can occasionally result in
property damage, particularly during blizzard conditions or night-time snow plowing.
In the event of damage to private property during snow removal, the property owner
should file a claim with the City Clerk’s Office by calling (208) 612-8415 or a claim form
can be printed off from the City of Idaho Falls website: idahofalls.gov. It can then be filled
out, and returned to the City Clerk’s Office in person, by mail, fax or e-mail. The claim will
then be reviewed to determine if the damage was a result of impact with a plow blade or
other piece of equipment. It should be noted that mailboxes should be constructed solidly
to withstand the force of snow rolling off a plow.
The weight of accumulating snow may cause damage to structures. Such damage is the
responsibility of the resident and their insurance company.

SAFETY TIPS
•
When trucks are plowing snow and spreading sanding material, stay back from
the vehicle 100 feet to avoid problems.
•
Plow trucks often have to back up. There are blind spots in the mirrors. For your
safety, do not pull up directly behind them. They may not be able to see you.
•
When cleaning driveways or parking lots, do not put snow in the street. This can
cause problems for other motorists.
•
Plow trucks generally push snow to the passenger side of the truck (right side
when looking at it from the rear). Never attempt to pass a truck on the right
since there can be much more snow on that side of the vehicle.

INTRODUCTION
PURPOSE
The purpose of this manual is to establish an acceptable policy and operational procedures
for snow and ice control on public streets under the jurisdiction of the City of Idaho Falls.
This policy provides a uniform understanding of the priorities and procedures used to
combat accumulation of snow and ice on City streets.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of these policies and procedures is to provide adequate traction for vehicles
properly equipped for winter driving conditions. Priority is given to streets which carry the
largest traffic volume. Limited resources preclude service on lower priority streets until
higher priority streets have been completed. It should be expected that during storms of
high intensity or long duration and during non-regular working hours, drivers on lower
priority streets will encounter snow-packed or icy conditions. Snow and ice control
operations will continue during regular hours and/or until all streets have passable
pavement or when plowing and sanding is no longer effective.
SCOPE
This policy applies only to public streets under the jurisdiction of Idaho Falls and
agreements with Bonneville County and Idaho Transportation Department. The City has
approximately 802 lane miles of arterial, collector and residential streets that it
maintains for snow removal.
Snow removal for some state highways is provided by the Idaho Transportation Department
(ITD) and include US-20 and I-15 within city limits.
In order to provide for efficient snow removal services on urban streets, the City has
entered into a cooperative maintenance agreement with the Idaho Transportation
Department. Under this agreement, Idaho Falls is responsible for snow and ice control on
Broadway, Yellowstone, Northgate Mile, Sunnyside Road and Holmes Avenue within City
limits. The agreement is included within the appendices.
Snow removal from City-owned parking lots is provided by the Parks and Recreation
Department or private contractors.
City ordinance assigns the responsibility of sidewalk snow removal to the adjacent
property owner. (Idaho Falls City Code Title 8 Chapter 10)
2
II.
POLICIES
RESPONSIBILITY
The responsibility for implementing the snow and ice control policy lies with the Street
Superintendent, or his designee during off hours. The Public Works Director may choose to
authorize the use of additional resources when conditions warrant.
TRAINING
Prior to the start of the snow season, the Street Division will conduct training for personnel
that will be involved in snow control activities. The training will consist of classroom and
hands-on equipment training, including the operation of sanders, snowplows, front-end
loaders and other equipment as needed.
WEATHER MONITORING
Street Division supervisors will use the National Weather Service daily forecasts to monitor
weather conditions and will schedule snowplow crews based on these forecasts.
COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS
The Street Division will monitor conditions whenever there is potential of ice or snow
conditions developing on City roadways. The Police Department also reports icy conditions
to the Street Division after regular working hours. When snow or ice begins accumulating
on the streets the Street Superintendent, or his designee during off hours, will authorize
commencement of plowing and/or sanding operations as conditions warrant
PRIORITIES
A limited number of resources and the need to provide the greatest level of safety and
benefit to the traveling public, in an efficient manner, necessitate that priority be given to
certain heavily used streets above others more minor in nature. Therefore, streets with
higher use have a higher priority for snow removal service. Minor streets which require
proportionally more time for snow removal for the amount of traffic served have lower
priority.
City streets have been divided into the following three snow removal priority categories:
PRIORITY 1: These are arterial and major collector streets, generally with a right-
of- way width exceeding 60 feet and average daily traffic greater than 5,000 and
includes approximately 237 lane miles.
PRIORITY 2: These are generally minor collector streets, typically with a
pavement width of at least 43 feet. Included in this category are streets serving
3
emergency response facilities, schools and streets with hills and sharp curves
where low traction may cause hazardous driving conditions and includes
approximately 116 lane miles.
PRIORITY 3: All other streets not designated as either Priority 1 or 2
streets, split into Zone A and B, and includes approximately 449 lane miles.
Street priority snow removal maps are included in the appendix and are available for review
on the City’s website.
DEVIATIONS FROM POLICY
Deviations from standard policies and procedures may occur due to unusual or
extraordinary circumstances. Every winter storm has unique characteristics such as storm
intensity, duration, wind, temperature and moisture content that influence the methodology
used in response to each storm.
Deviations and exceptions from the general priorities and procedures may be made when,
in the judgment of the responsible authority, such deviations will best support meeting
established objectives and ensuring public safety.
III.
OPERATIONS PLAN
EQUIPMENT RESOURCES
The Street Division has a variety of equipment to utilize in snow removal activities.
Equipment includes eight (8) dump trucks with plows three (3) equipped with spreaders,
six (6) pickup trucks with plows, four (4) V-box spreader trucks three (3) equipped with
plows, three (3) brine trucks two (2) equipped with plows, two

STAFFING
There are 24 employees who work full time for the Street Division. These employees
include 21 operators and a foreman that operate plows, sanders, graders, backhoes, snow
loaders and front-end loaders for snow removal. The Street Division Superintendent and
Admin Assistant support snow removal operations by logging and dispatching service
requests. The City’s Public Information Officers are also utilized during snow removal
operations to communicate information to the public and media.

RESPONSE PLAN
When weather forecasts indicate a pending storm is anticipated to deposit snow within the
City, the Street Division will begin applying salt-brine to Priority 1 and 2 streets to aid in ice
and snow control.
Priority 1 streets are the first streets that receive plowing and salting. Once Priority 1
streets are deemed safe for travel during or after a snow event, snow removal operations
shift to Priority 2 streets. Once Priority 2 streets have been addressed focus is shifted to
Priority 3 streets that are completed during normal daily schedule hours. If there is a
snow accumulation of more than four (4) inches on the road, plows will continue snow
removal activities on Priority 3 streets during off hours. If during snow removal operations
6
on lower priority streets, conditions deteriorate on Priority 1 or 2 streets, focus will be
shifted back to these higher priority streets as necessitated by the snow event.
ZONE A
Zone A is the Priority 3 area within the City bounded by and including the following
streets:
Starting at the corner of East 1st Street and Holmes Avenue; thence running south
along Holmes Avenue to East 17th Street; thence running west along 17th Street
and along Pancheri Drive to the Snake River; thence running north along the east
bank of the Snake River to West Elva Street; thence running east along Elva Street
to the railroad tracks; thence running south along the railroad tracks to East 1st
Street; thence running east along 1st Street to the point of beginning (excluding the
Downtown Area, Nighttime Snow Removal Streets, and any Priority 1 or 2 street
within such area).
ZONE A PARKING RESTRICTIONS AND PLOWING
Due to the narrowness and abundance of on-street parking Zone A is completed in a
two-day period with north-south street and east-west streets plowed on alternating
days.
North-south streets are considered any street running in a direction within 10
degrees of true north (e.g., Water Ave., Alice Ave., Cottage Place, Lee Ave., Sage
Ave.)
East-west streets are considered any street running in a direction within 10 degrees
of true east and west (e.g., 2nd Street, L Street, Maple Street)
Parking restrictions for Zone A are as follows:
North-South Streets. Beginning at a Snow Event, no parking from eight o’clock
(8:00) a.m. local time until five o’clock (5:00) p.m. local time on any even
calendar day of the month (e.g., two, four, six, eight, …) or until snow removal
activities are determined by the Street Superintendent to be completed for the
Snow Event.
East-West Streets. Beginning at a Snow Event, no parking from eight o’clock
(8:00) a.m. local time until five o’clock (5:00) p.m. local time on any odd
calendar day of the month (e.g. one, three, five, seven, …) or until snow removal
activities are determined by the Street Superintendent to be completed for the
Snow Event.
Due to the narrowness of Zone A streets vehicles parked in violation of these
7
restrictions will be relocated to the nearest opposing direction street (e.g. vehicle
relocated from an East-West street to a North-South street or vise-versa). Every
effort will be made to give a minimum of 24-hour notice to Zone A residents of these
restrictions.
Informational press releases, media interviews, social media posts, text alerts, City
website notifications, and other notifications as deemed appropriate will be used to
notify Zone A residents.
CONTINUATION AND COMPLETION
Although no snow event is exactly the same, it usually takes 12-24 hours AFTER the
snow stops falling to plow and salt Priority 1 and 2 streets.
Residential streets generally take an additional 48 hours to plow, assuming there are
no interruptions to move back to Priority 1 or 2 streets.
During major storms, traffic on low-priority streets usually causes the snow to become
packed or icy, before it can be plowed. In this case it may take days or even weeks to
remove the packed snow and ice from these streets. When snow has become compacted
on low-priority streets and plowing is ineffective due to low ambient temperatures, nighttime
sanding and plowing operations may be discontinued until normal working hours and the
normal duty schedule is resumed.
PRE-STORM APPLICATION OF SALT BRINE
The Street Division will begin applying salt-brine to Priority 1 and 2 streets to aid in snow
removal when weather forecasts indicate a pending storm is anticipated to deposit snow
within the City. This application can generally be completed within 16 hours utilizing three
(3) truck mounted applicators. This application helps prevent the bonding of snow and ice
to the road surface on these higher priority streets.
SALT AND SANDING
Salting is generally completed in conjunction with plowing in conformance with the
priority road response system. Sanding alone is conducted when roads are icy, or
plowing is ineffective on snow-packed roads and in residential areas.
Once operations have begun, salting will continue until the priority streets have had
traction restored. Depending on the weather conditions, arterial and collector streets may
receive multiple applications along with other high use intersections or streets with
inclines.
MATERIALS
For salting operations, salt will be used in different amounts, depending on
8
pavement/air temperature and the amount of precipitation. For sanding operations
generally, a mixture consisting of four (4) parts sand to one (1) part salt is used to
prevent the sand from clumping and/or freezing.
SALT STORAGE
The salt storage facility at 2575 Hemmert Avenue has a capacity of approximately 2,000
tons. Orders for salt delivery are regularly made to keep the storage facility at capacity.
BRIDGES
The Street Division is responsible for the maintenance of 56 bridges within City limits.
Bridges often become icy before the adjacent streets because the ambient air temperature
is lower beneath the bridges than the ground temperature beneath the pavement. Bridges
are monitored for icy conditions by Street Division personnel during normal working hours
and after-hours by the Police Department.
Salt brine is usually applied to bridge decks on Priority 1 and 2 streets before a snow or ice
event to prevent the snow and ice from bonding to the bridge deck. If ice is present, salt or
a salt and sand mixture may be spread to increase traction and melt ice.
CUL-DE-SACS
In an effort to become more efficient, crews will make one (1) to two (2) passes around the
perimeter of the cul-de-sac with a snowplow, pushing the snow to the middle of the cul-de-
sac. Snow will be removed from the cul-de-sac at a later date by Street Division employees
during the normal daily schedule. This is a low priority activity that is generally the last
activity to be completed after every snow event.
LOADING AND HAULING OF SNOW
Loading and hauling snow from City streets is the most expensive and time-consuming
snow removal activity undertaken by the Street Division. This practice is minimized to the
maximum extent possible and will only be implemented when there are no other
alternatives to keep streets open, to maintain access to adjacent properties or other
extenuating circumstances. A map depicting the method of snow removal is included
within the appendices. This map will be reviewed and updated on an annual basis.
PUBLIC RELATIONS
Providing information to the public is a vital part of the snow removal process. Residents
need to know how they can help facilitate snow removal and what to expect in terms of a
response by the Street Division to winter storms. Messages sent to the public can range
from simple requests to remove parked vehicles from the street to notification of street
9
closures, or other severe conditions.
Prior to snow season each year, the City will convey information regarding how to sign up
for notifications, where to find information, parking restrictions, sidewalk snow removal
requirements, prohibitions against throwing or blowing snow on to City streets and snow
removal priorities.
During storms, the Street Division office will be staffed appropriately to manage requests
for service according to storm intensity.
The Street Division will work closely with the City’s Public Information Officers to
convey information regarding snow removal activities as needed and to request
resident compliance with snow removal parking restrictions.
To sign up for notifications for snow removal parking restrictions text snowIF to 38276
or go to www.idahofalls.gov, click on the blue SIGN UP button, and follow the
instructions.
DISPATCHING REQUESTS FOR SERVICE
Since snowplow operators are already trained to follow priorities established by policies
and procedures contained herein, it is inefficient to respond to individual concerns
before allowing operators to respond in accordance with existing policies.
Telephone operators will log requests for service and periodically forward these logs to
snow removal supervisors for review and potential action. Supervisors will use these logs
to direct operators to areas of concern, after they have achieved the goals established
within existing snow removal policies.
Supervisors will be notified immediately of hazardous conditions or new snow accumulation
on higher priority streets, roadways impacted by drifting snow or other emergency
conditions.

IV.
OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES FOR DIFFERENT STORM
INTENSITIES
The following procedures describe implementation of the Operations Plan for various
storm intensities. These procedures are intended as an aid to supervisors and
management staff to ensure essential actions are taken. Variations to these
procedures may be made by the Street Superintendent, or his designate, to best
meet the demands of changing storm events. These procedures will also help
provide residents with a better understanding of how the City manages snow
removal.
MINOR SNOW EVENT
A minor snow event is generally defined as two to four (2-4) inches of accumulation of
snow within the roadway
Resources will be committed to Priority 1 streets first. No additional resources will
be brought in for lower-priority roads. Only after Priority 1 streets are cleared will
available resources be shifted to Priority 2 streets. Similarly, the same resources
will be used to serve Priority 3 streets only after goals have been met on Priority 1
and 2 streets.
Priority 1 - Arterial and Major Collector Streets: Twenty-four hours per day,
seven (7) days per week, when needed. Generally cleared within 12-24 hours after
the end of the storm.
Priority 2 - Minor Collectors and Special Need Streets: After Priority 1 streets
are completed. Twenty-four hours per day, seven (7) days per week, when
needed. Generally cleared within 12-24 hours after the end of the storm.
Priority 3 - All Other Non-Priority 1 and 2 Streets: After Priority 1 and 2 streets
are completed. Regular hours only. Generally cleared within 72 hours after the
end of the storm.
AUTHORITY
The Street Superintendent or his designee during off-hours has the authority to call-out
and direct snow removal resources.
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES NEEDED

PUBLIC INFORMATION
Requests for service will be handled by the Street Division Admin Assistant.
Informational press releases, media interviews, social media posts, text alerts, City
website notifications, and other notifications as deemed appropriate that may include
requesting snow removal parking compliance will be coordinated through the City’s
Public Information Officers.
MODERATE SNOW EVENT
A moderate snow event is generally defined as four to eight (4 - 8) inches of
accumulation of snow within the roadway.
Resources will be committed to Priority 1 streets first. Only after Priority 1 streets
are cleared will available resources be shifted to Priority 2 streets. Similarly, the
same resources will be used to serve Priority 3 streets, only after needs have been
met on Priority 1 and 2 streets.
Priority 1 - Arterial and Major Collector Streets: Twenty-four hours per day, seven
(7) days per week, when needed. Generally cleared within 12-24 hours after the
end of the storm
Priority 2 - Minor Collectors and Special Need Streets: After Priority 1 streets
are complete. Twenty-four hours per day, seven (7) days per week, when needed.
Generally cleared within 12-24 hours after the end of the storm.
Priority 3 - All Other Non-Priority 1 and 2 Streets: After Priority 1 and 2 streets
are completed. Twenty-four hours per day, seven (7) days per week, when
needed. Generally cleared within 72 hours after the end of the storm.

HEAVY SNOW EVENT
A heavy snow event is generally defined as eight to twelve (8 -12) inches of
accumulation of snow within the roadway.
Street Division resources will be committed to Priority 1 streets first. Additional
resources, as described below, will be brought in to clear lower-priority roads. Only
after Priority 1 streets are cleared, will all resources be shifted to Priority 2 streets.
All resources will be used to serve Priority 3 Streets only after needs have been met
on Priority 1 and 2 streets.
Priority 1 - Arterial and Major Collector Streets: Twenty-four hours per day,
seven (7) days per week, when needed. Generally cleared within 12-24 hours after
the end of the storm.
Priority 2 - Minor Collectors and Special Need Streets: After Priority 1 streets
are completed. Twenty-four hours per day, seven (7) days per week, when
needed. Generally cleared within 24-48 hours after the end of the storm.
Priority 3 - All Other Non-Priority 1 and 2 Streets: After Priority 1 and 2 streets
are completed. Twenty-four hours per day, seven (7) days per week, when
needed. Generally cleared within 72 hours after the end of the storm.
During major storms, traffic on low-priority streets usually causes the snow to become
packed or icy, before it can be plowed. In these cases, it may take days or even
weeks to remove the packed snow and ice from these streets.
AUTHORITY
The Street Superintendent or his designee during off-hours has the authority to call-out and direct
snow removal resources.

PUBLIC INFORMATION
ON-STREET PARKING
It is dangerous and difficult to plow narrow streets that are congested with parked vehicles.
Plowing around parked cars limits the effectiveness of snow removal activities. Some
narrow streets may not be plowed if equipment cannot safely drive down them. The most
helpful thing residents can do to facilitate snow removal is to move vehicles off the street
and encourage their neighbors to do the same.
To facilitate snow removal, City ordinance prohibits on-street parking whenever there is a
qualifying Snow Event. A Snow Event is an occurrence in which more than two (2) inches
of snow accumulates on the roadway as determined by the City and as posted on the
City’s official website (www.idahofalls.gov). Any vehicles parked on streets within Idaho
Falls during a Snow Event will be subject to ticketing, relocation, and towing in
accordance with snow removal parking restrictions. Visit the City website for updates and
more information (Idaho Falls City Code Title 9 Chapter 5)
SNOW BLOWING
Blowing, throwing or pushing snow from driveways and walks into the street creates
additional work for snowplow operators and may create significant traffic hazards. Some
businesses and residents have pushed large piles of snow into the street, hoping it would
melt quickly. The snow pile is a hazard itself, but the ice created when the melting snow
refreezes can make the situation even more dangerous. Move snow onto landscaped
areas in the yard or parking lot. City Code prohibits placing snow upon any public street,
sidewalk, easement, right-of-way, or public way, alleyway or sidewalk. (Idaho Falls City
Code Title 8 Chapter 10)
CUL-DE-SACS
There are approximately 484 cul-de-sacs in Idaho Falls. It takes considerably longer to
clear snow from cul-de-sacs than other “uninterrupted” stretches of City streets. Because
of the high cost-to-benefit ratio, cul-de-sacs and dead-end streets have the lowest
priority for snow removal. Cul-de-sacs will be plowed, but it will likely be several days
after a major storm ends before snow is removed from the middle of cul-de-sac.
SIDEWALKS
Snowplow operators try to avoid placing snow on sidewalks, but in some instances this
may not be possible. The adjacent property owner is responsible to keep sidewalks clear.
16
WHAT CAN I DO IF I AM ELDERLY AND/OR DISABLED AND CAN’T SHOVEL SNOW
FROM MY SIDEWALK?
The City does not have the resources to provide snow removal from sidewalks.
Please plan to make arrangements with a relative, friend or neighbor for help. If you,
your business, organization, family or other volunteer group would like to assist with
sidewalk snow removal in our community, we would recommend starting a snow
removal volunteer project through www.justserve.org. Once a project is created,
those who need assistance can go to this website to find assistance.
RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAYS
One of the most frequent concerns in the removal of snow from public streets is snow
being deposited at the approach to residential driveways during plowing operations. As
plows travel along streets, the snow accumulated on the plow blade has no place to go but
on to the adjacent street landscaping areas and in driveways. The more snow that has
fallen, the greater the problem encountered. As a service to the residents of Idaho Falls,
an approximate 10-foot-wide section will be opened by City crews at the driveway
approach to allow access from the driveway to the street in case of an emergency. A
small windrow of snow may still remain as the volume of snow may spill out past the
gate on the equipment.
Residents can help this situation by piling snow they have shoveled from their
driveways on to the right side facing the street, instead of placing it on both sides at the
end of the driveway. By doing so operators can avoid carrying piles from the “upstream”
portion of the street back across driveways.
ALLEYWAYS
Alleyways are plowed on an as needed basis by the Sanitation Division for sanitation
vehicles only.
MAIL DELIVERY
City snow removal operators make every effort to remove snow as close to the curb as
practical and to provide access to mailboxes for postal carriers. However, it is not always
possible to provide ideal conditions and not damage mailboxes with the size and type of
equipment the City operates. Therefore, the final cleaning adjacent to mailboxes is the
responsibility of each resident.
If there is an accumulation of snow blocking your mailbox, either remove the snow or set
out a temporary box, bucket, plastic tub or garbage receptacle that can be reached by
your letter carrier and label it with your address and the words “U.S. Mail.”
17
BROKEN TREE LIMBS
During heavy storms, tree limbs may be broken. Please call (208) 612-8490 to report
limbs blocking traffic.
Broken limbs outside the roadway are the responsibility of the tree owner. Limbs can be cut
and bundled for bulky waste pickup or taken to the Bonneville County Hatch Pit. Call the
Sanitation Division to schedule pickup at
(208) 612-8491. Branches and limbs must be tied in bundles less than four (4) feet in length
and not more than 50 pounds in weight per bundle.
PROPERTY DAMAGE CLAIMS
Incidents involving contact between City equipment and private property typically occur
within the public right-of-way. Although the public right-of-way is maintained by the
adjacent property owner, there are times when the right-of-way is the only available space
to store excess snow removed from the roads. A City right-of-way is an easement which is
a privilege or a right, distinct from ownership. It is commonly defined as roadways and
alleys however sidewalks, curbs and gutters, landscaping and parking strips, and driveway
approaches are included in public rights-of-way. Those areas may be necessary to serve
as excess snow storage, therefore, actions taken by operators can occasionally result in
property damage, particularly during blizzard conditions or night-time snow plowing.
In the event of damage to private property during snow removal, the property owner
should file a claim with the City Clerk’s Office by calling (208) 612-8415 or a claim form
can be printed off from the City of Idaho Falls website: idahofalls.gov. It can then be filled
out, and returned to the City Clerk’s Office in person, by mail, fax or e-mail. The claim will
then be reviewed to determine if the damage was a result of impact with a plow blade or
other piece of equipment. It should be noted that mailboxes should be constructed solidly
to withstand the force of snow rolling off a plow.
The weight of accumulating snow may cause damage to structures. Such damage is the
responsibility of the resident and their insurance company.

SAFETY TIPS
When trucks are plowing snow and spreading sanding material, stay back from
the vehicle 100 feet to avoid problems.
Plow trucks often have to back up. There are blind spots in the mirrors. For your
safety, do not pull up directly behind them. They may not be able to see you.
When cleaning driveways or parking lots, do not put snow in the street. This can
cause problems for other motorists.
Plow trucks generally push snow to the passenger side of the truck (right side
when looking at it from the rear). Never attempt to pass a truck on the right
since there can be much more snow on that side of the vehicle.

2. Pledge of Allegiance
Colby Hatton led those present in the Pledge of Allegiance.
3. Staff responses to prior public comments and other updates - Mayor Burtenshaw explained that this item
allows staff to respond publicly to matters raised at prior meetings or to share community updates, since the
Council does not engage in back-and-forth dialogue during general public comment.
Presentation (Chief Johnson, Police Department) – License Plate Readers (LPR):
•
Chief Johnson reported that four or five speakers addressed LPRs at the last Council session. He
spoke with all but one of them after that meeting. In summary, the speakers still had reservations
about LPRs, but felt that if the technology is used, it should be used the way Idaho Falls is using it.
•
Policy clarification: One speaker was concerned that policy language mentioning probable cause and
reasonable suspicion could be read to mean they are not required to use an LPR. The intent was that
an LPR hit does not, by itself, create probable cause or reasonable suspicion, and that officers must
independently establish it. The policy has been revised to make this clearer.
•
Audits: IPD currently audits LPR use every two weeks, which community members appreciated.
Because IPD both uses the LPRs and conducts the audits, the question of "who is watching the
watchers" is a fair critique. IPD plans to update its policy to include public disclosure of audits to the
Citizens Review Committee; a list of citizen reviewers has already been approved by Mayor
Burtenshaw and Council, and audits would be provided to four of those citizens for independent
review.
•
Town hall: Chief Johnson held an LPR town hall attended by approximately 30–40 people in person
and roughly 100 online, with similar feedback.
•
November report: Council had directed staff to report on LPRs in October. At the Chief's request, the
report was postponed to November to allow more time for evaluation. Staff is reviewing four

separate LPR companies, including one recommended by a frequent public commenter, and all four
will be presented to Council in November.
Additional remarks (Mayor Burtenshaw):
•
Noted that Chief Johnson also met with the organization Stand Up for Idaho to discuss LPRs.
•
Reported that she met this week with Attorney General Raúl Labrador, who also met with Chief
Johnson. The Attorney General's staff was impressed that the City moved from twice-yearly to
twice-monthly audits. Mayor Burtenshaw said the State has a role in helping citizens, local
government, and police understand how LPRs are used, and that a twice-yearly audit is too much
information to review all at once.
•
Thanked Chief Johnson for taking opportunities to explain how LPRs benefit law enforcement. No
other staff members had updates.
4. Public Comment
Faith Niebert (IF Resident)
•
Expressed gratitude that Ammon has begun participating in the GIFT on-demand ride program,
saying it has already changed many lives in a week.
•
Shared that she and her boyfriend, who is also visually impaired, were able to use the services to go
to Ammon for dessert the previous Friday, and that the program lets her reach Ammon businesses
such as the D.I. without paying roughly $40 for a rideshare.
•
Thanked Nate Eaton and his team, and urged Bonneville County to participate, calling the service "a
need, not a want, and is the GIFT that keeps on giving."
Chrissy Stratton (Bonneville County Resident)
•
Spoke as one of seven War Bonnet Round-Up Advisory Council members (Director of Hospitality and
Sponsorship) and thanked Council for supporting Idaho's oldest rodeo.
•
Reported unanimously positive feedback from participants, contract personnel, and spectators;
contestants especially value the facilities, grounds crew, and grass for their horses.
•
Thanked Parks & Recreation staff and the many volunteers and noted the four-day event is designed
to be different each day, from family-focused programming to evening parties.
Colby Hatton (IF Resident)
•
Speaking on behalf of Stronger Idaho Falls, shared that a coworker was killed in a crash on a state-
managed road outside the city in late September, leaving a wife and two children.
•
Urged the use of "crash" or "incident" rather than "accident," arguing that crashes result from
systems, policy, and infrastructure rather than being unavoidable.
•
Said car-centric infrastructure is especially deadly to those outside vehicles and urged prioritizing
pedestrians and cyclists, even if drivers are inconvenienced, so that Idaho Falls can prevent such
tragedies within its jurisdiction.
Matthew Murphy (IF Resident)
•
Stated that he has previously addressed Council about an alleged 2024 conspiracy to commit
murder, that he has witnesses and evidence, and alleged that the Idaho Falls Police Department is
preventing the matter from reaching a prosecutor.
•
Said his young daughter was present for the alleged events and that he is unable to see her; also
reported an alleged incident on June 24 near Sage and Highland.
City Council

Meppen Park Irrigation System Installation Bid
Presentation (Director Holm):
•
The City has been working to return to compliance with the Land and Water Conservation Fund
(LWCF) program after being ineligible for LWCF funding for well over three decades. Project
amendments for Esquire Park and Dora Erickson, removing noncompliant sections, have been
accepted by the National Park Service. Developing Meppen Park into a usable park is the final step
toward full compliance and reopens access to federal funding.
•
The park was designed with Mountain West Engineering. Three bids were received for irrigation; A
Summer Rain Inc. submitted the lowest at $98,900, with an estimated 16 working days (weather
permitting) and a three-year warranty. Sod and parking improvements will follow on the
approximately 8.8-acre parcel.
•
Staff hopes to be awarded the LWCF grant next year to build a restroom, pickleball and tennis
courts, and playgrounds in a neighborhood that has long lacked walkable green space.
•
In response to a Council question, the end goal is irrigation with surface water from the canal.
Because water-district issues are still being worked out, the system will temporarily connect to the
City's potable system, likely for less than a year. The system is being built with dual access so
potable water can serve as a backup, such as for athletic fields in low-water years.
•
Mayor Burtenshaw was mentioned she was excited to see children already playing on the leveled
site. Staff noted that a May 12 on-site neighborhood planning event (door hangers were delivered
to about 200 nearby residences) shaped the amenities included in the park and the grant
application.
Motion: Accept and approve the proposal for the irrigation system installation at Meppen Park and
award the bid to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, A Summer Rain Inc., in the amount of
$98,900.00.
•

Professional Services Agreement with HDR Engineering in Support of the Rack
Substation Rebuild Project
Presentation (Mr. Yancey):
•
A Master Agreement with HDR was established on June 21, 2024. Nondiscrimination language was
added, so an amendment to the agreement is requested, along with a professional services task
order for design of the Rack Substation rebuild at a total of $386,000.
•
In response to Councilor Freeman, staff clarified that $386,000 is an addition specific to the Rack
Substation and not the total of all HDR agreements; additional services may be needed later.
Motion: Approve the Amendment to Agreement for Professional Engineering Services and Professional
Services Task Order with HDR Engineering Incorporated for a total of $386,000.00 and authorize the
Mayor to execute both documents.
•

2. 26-353
Sole Source Procurement for Materials and Services with Western States Equipment
Company for Peaking Plant Equipment
Presentation (Jace Yancey):
•
Council was asked to determine sole-source procurement with Western States Equipment Company
(CAT) for (1) oil change parts-only kits totaling $94,689 over three years, and (2) preventative
maintenance services totaling $565,390 over five years.
•
A Councilor noted that the City's Peaking Plant uses CAT units and that a sole source provider makes
sense because this company services those machines.
Motion: Make a determination of sole source procurement of materials and services, approving the
Western States Equipment Company Customer Value Agreements for 1) Oil Change Parts Only Kit

1. 26-377
Final Plat, Development Agreement, and Reasoned Statement of Relevant Criteria and
Standards, Willows Place Townhomes Division No. 1
Presentation/Discussion (Council President Francis; Director Sanner; Legal staff):
•
With Councilor Lee absent, Mayor Burtenshaw invited Council President Francis to comment on the
plat. Council President Francis confirmed that all reviewing departments had signed off. The
Planning and Zoning Commission considered the item on November 5, 2025, and unanimously
recommended approval.
•
Council President Francis asked whether the Reasoned Statement of Relevant Criteria and Standards
(RSRCS), No. 4, "the final plat will be developed as a planned unit development as accepted by
Council," should specify which version of the plat was accepted. The Planning and Zoning minutes in
the packet describe a plat with 15 lots (14 buildable and one common lot containing the private
street), which differs from the final plat before Council.
•
Director Sanner explained that the PUD was approved by Council and that the lot count was later
reduced through mediation with the developer. Plats are not normally returned to Planning and
Zoning unless the number of lots increases; plats are governed by Chapter 65 of the Local Land Use
Planning Act and are separate from the PUD concept, and the Commission is a recommending body.
•
Legal staff noted the RSRCS refers to "this matter," not a specific plat version, and a plat can change
or remain the same. Council President Francis explained the concern: if a decision is challenged, the
RSRCS is usually the first document reviewed. After discussion, it was agreed the Council record and
minutes make clear which plat was approved, and no amendment was made.

Legislative Public Hearing for the Annexation and Initial Zoning of I&M, Industrial and
Manufacturing – Annexation and Initial Zoning Ordinances and Reasoned Statements of
Relevant Criteria and Standards for approximately 4.482 acres
Mayor Burtenshaw declared the legislative public hearing open.
Applicant (Devin Knight, Gateway IF, property owner/developer):
•
Gateway IF operates a recycling facility on Yellowstone under the name Mill Creek Metals and also
has a facility in Blackfoot. The company intends to move its Yellowstone facility to this site, adjacent
to its facility on 15th Street, which it acquired from the prior owner.
•
The adjacent development has already been annexed into the City, and after evaluating options, the
company chose to annex this property as well, submitting plans to build its facility.
Staff Report (Director Sanner):
•
Annexation 26-006: a property-owner-initiated annexation of 4.482 acres on North 15th, plus some
right-of-way on the eastern portion of the property, located in the Area of Impact. The requested
zoning is I&M. Properties to the south and east are within the City; those to the north and west
remain under county jurisdiction.
•
The Comprehensive Plan designates the area as Industrial, so the requested zoning is consistent. The
Planning and Zoning Commission heard the item on August 4, 2026, with no public comment, and
voted unanimously to recommend approval.
There were no questions from Council. No members of the public testified for or against.
Mayor Burtenshaw closed the hearing.
Motion 1: Approve the Ordinance annexing approximately 4.482 acres in the E ½ of Section 8, Township
2 North, Range 38 East; assign a Comprehensive Plan Designation of "Industrial"; and under a
suspension of the rules requiring three complete and separate readings, request that it be read by title

and Council welcomed the applicant to the City.

Legislative Public Hearing for the Annexation and Initial Zoning of HC, Highway Commercial –
Annexation and Initial Zoning Ordinances and Reasoned Statements of Relevant Criteria and
Standards for approximately 2.23 acres
City Council
Meeting Minutes
680 Park Avenue
Idaho Falls, ID
Mayor Burtenshaw declared the legislative public hearing open. The applicant had to leave for a family
emergency but is in support of the request.
Staff Report (Director Sanner):
•
Annexation 26-007: a property-owner-initiated annexation on North Woodruff, just south of Lincoln,
consisting of Lots 2 and 3, Carlyle-Erma Subdivision Division No. 1 (approximately 2.23 acres) and a
thin sliver of right-of-way along Woodruff. The requested zoning is HC, Highway Commercial.
•
The property is a small county island; surrounding properties to the north, west, and slightly south
are zoned Highway Commercial and Industrial. The Comprehensive Plan designates it as Mixed-Use
Centers and Corridors, so the request is consistent. The site is currently used as a food truck plaza in
the county, a use allowed in the HC zone.
•
The Planning and Zoning Commission heard the item on September 1, 2026, with no public
comment, and voted unanimously to recommend approval.
•
In response to a Council question about the right-of-way sliver, staff explained it has already been
dedicated as public right-of-way but is under county jurisdiction; annexation transfers full
jurisdiction of that right-of-way from the County to the City.
No members of the public testified for or against. Mayor Burtenshaw closed the hearing.
Motion 1: Approve the Ordinance annexing approximately 2.23 acres for Lots 2 and 3, Carlyle-Erma

4. 26-380 Quasi-Judicial Public Hearing – Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Reasoned Statement of
Relevant Criteria and Standards, Higham Riverfront Townhomes
Mayor Burtenshaw declared the quasi-judicial public hearing open and outlined the order of
proceedings: applicant presentation and Council questions, staff report, public testimony (approximately
three minutes each), and Council discussion, with the hearing remaining open while Council had
questions.
Applicant Presentation (Tyler Pridemore):
•
The project is an infill development on Higham Street, zoned R-2, which would permit 17 units per
acre; the applicant is proposing 15 units per acre (41 units). A PUD is requested so that lots may
front private streets.
•
Landscape buffer variance: The applicant requested a five-foot reduction of the front landscape
buffer along Higham Street (a dead-end street with no planned improvements to the west), which
allows the buildings to shift five feet south and increases the landscape buffer on the north side. The
reduction is not counted toward the required 25% open space, which is still met.
•
Parking: The project is rear alley-loaded with 20-foot-deep garages and a three-foot driveway apron
between the curb and garage door. Five units on the east side would have driveways via a cross-
access easement being negotiated with the eastern property owner (providing about 10 additional
City Council
Meeting Minutes
680 Park Avenue
Idaho Falls, ID
guest spaces), with five visitor spaces on the northwest, and roughly 26 additional spaces in total
including public street parking on Higham.
•
Amenities: A community garden (raised beds) and a dog park, intended to offset the buffer variance.
The dog park would use permeable pet turf to prevent runoff to adjacent property, with additional
trees for screening on its north side as recommended by Planning and Zoning. The applicant stated
openness to other locations or input from Council.
Council questions to the applicant:
•
Greenbelt access: A pathway and sidewalk along the south side would connect to the existing
greenbelt trail. A direct connection at the southwest corner could not be arranged with Parks due to
timing; clearing, grubbing, and native restoration of that area is proposed.
•
Fencing: An existing wooden fence meanders along the north property line; the portion on the
applicant's property would be replaced, and no other fence is proposed. The dog park is intended
for residents, but no access control (such as a key fob) is proposed.
•
East-side parking: The cross-access easement would be exchanged for a private stormwater
easement for the adjacent property. If the easement is not obtained, the plan would not work as
presented and would need to return to Council.
•
Lighting: Lighting at the trail spur is not a firm commitment because it is in public right-of-way;
street lights exist on utility poles along Pine.
•
North buffer: The applicant estimated about 26 feet from the north property line to the building
fronts and deferred to staff to verify.
Staff Report (Director Sanner):
•
Staff reformatted the report to review each section of the PUD ordinance and whether each
requirement is met. The 2.7-acre site has been undeveloped for about 120 years; a 1981 attempt to
develop it as part of the condominium PUD to the north never materialized. Higham is a dead-end
street southeast of Freeman Park; the cul-de-sac knuckle will be vacated, and the right-of-way
contains a trail connecting to the greenbelt.
•
The site is zoned R-2 with R-2 PUDs to the north (condominiums at 25 units per acre) and east
(townhomes at 13 units per acre), an office use to the south, and Freeman Park to the west. It lies in
the Urban Core transect of the Comprehensive Plan. A 15-foot utility easement and power lines run
along the south.
•
The project would be built in ten phases with amenities in the first phase. A PUD this size requires
one amenity; two are proposed plus the trail connection. The 5-foot buffer reduction (20 to 15 feet)
is constrained by the utility easement, and staff considered it reasonable because it increases the
buffer to the north. Stormwater will be retained underground.
•
Code requires two parking spaces per unit; private streets do not allow parking. Staff estimates
about 10 on-site guest spaces plus about 16 public street spaces on Higham (eight north, eight
south), for 26 total. Trees required: 23 (one per 5,000 sq. ft.); about 37 are proposed. Parks did not
approve the initial proposal for non-irrigated or off-site trees, so trees were placed internally, with
canopy on the south and additional vegetation to buffer the dog park on the north. The nuisance
ordinance would apply to dog park noise and odors.
City Council
Meeting Minutes
680 Park Avenue
Idaho Falls, ID
•
The Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously on August 4, 2026, to recommend
approval with the condition of additional enhanced vegetation (up to 16 trees, negotiated with
Parks) along the northern buffer and/or southwest portion. Staff noted opposition, mostly from
northern neighbors, over the dog play area, and that a letter from Fuller Law Firm was included in
the packet.
Public Testimony:
Mark Fuller, Attorney (Bonneville County resident), for North Park Village Condo Association
•
Clarified that the association does not object to the PUD; its primary concern is the dog park and
dog wash on the north boundary, directly adjacent to its property, citing noise (including pressure
washers), odor, waste, and runoff from artificial pet turf (the ordinance calls for lawn), enclosed by a
chain-link fence.
•
Cited the ordinance requirements that outdoor activity areas maintain a 50-foot setback from
contiguous residential uses and that amenities be located for convenient access to most occupants.
He said the dog park is at the far north end, while residents in the south have easy access to
Freeman Park.
•
Proposed two solutions: eliminate the dog park (only one amenity is required), or swap the
community garden and dog park so the dog park is central. In response to a Council question, he
said the association has no concern with the setback if a garden is placed there instead.
Paul Brook (North Park Village Resident)
•
Has lived in the area for over 35 years; his front door is about 30 feet from the proposed dog park.
Raised concerns about odor, waste, noise, and possible discharge into Willow Creek, and shared
reports of noise and smell complaints at another dog park and dog wash on Woodruff. Urged the
swap and said he would welcome a garden outside his door.
Brad Hutchins (North Park Village Resident)
•
A year-round bicycle commuter without a car, he said 15 cars from nearby townhomes were parked
on Lakeshore Avenue that evening despite assurances that alley garages would prevent street
parking, and that relying on about 16 public-street spaces is a poor plan. Suggested removing a
couple of units for more resident parking. As a rotating-shift worker who sleeps during the day, he
also opposed the dog park.
Bob (North Park Village Resident; last name not captured)
•
Asked how drainage flowing north from the roadway or alley would be handled. The applicant
responded that the site plan has been updated so the road now slopes south, with no runoff to the
adjacent property.
John Miller (North Park Village Resident)
•
Noted the angled north-south road at the west end feeds toward North Park Village parking with no
fence, raising concern about cut-through traffic; the applicant and staff confirmed it terminates with
curb and gutter and is not a through street.
•
Said the prevailing south-southwest wind would carry odors toward North Park, questioned how
25% open space is calculated, and said the existing fence maintained by the HOA is deteriorating
(including from weeds), urging that a new privacy fence be required. In response to Council, the
HOA president indicated the HOA would be willing to enter into an agreement with the developer to
maintain the fence, and the developer said it was willing.
City Council
Meeting Minutes
680 Park Avenue
Idaho Falls, ID
Alexander Crusco (Nearby IF resident)
•
Said he loves dogs but works long days (up at 4:45 AM, home at 6:30 PM Monday through Thursday)
and is concerned about sleep; supported swapping the amenities and noted other site workers live
nearby.
Colby Hatton (IF Resident), Stronger Idaho Falls
•
Spoke in support of dense housing with pedestrian access to parks, restaurants, and other
amenities, adding that the area was a priority when he bought his first home. Reiterated the group's
support for eliminating mandatory parking requirements and allowing non-intrusive businesses in
residential zones and gave the group's full support to the project.
Staff response – open space and Council questions:
•
Director Sanner explained that open space is everything that is not impervious (gray on the site
plan); private streets and sidewalks do not count, the landscape buffer is not counted, and the dog
park and community garden do count. The project is right at 25%.
•
The applicant said all horizontal construction, including amenities and roadways, would be
completed in Phase 1, with only vertical construction phased, and both amenities would be
maintained.
•
The applicant said the preference would be to remove the dog park rather than swap it, because
placing it near the roadway raises its own concerns.
•
Staff confirmed stormwater for the whole development would go to an underground infiltration
trench along the north boundary (over 200 feet, also sized for the property to the east), essentially a
large French drain with perforated pipe, leveled and sodded on the surface; trees could be planted
above it.
Council Discussion:
•
Several Councilors agreed that a dog park about 30 feet from existing residences is too close,
regardless of whether it is open to the public, and that dog parks differ from parks where dogs must
be leashed. One Councilor said a well-maintained dog park with proper drainage and pet turf can be
less noisy and odorous than people expect, but would not want to live 30 feet from one.
•
One Councilor supported removing the dog park and shifting trees further from the fence for a
better buffer; another noted the North Park condominiums' garage parking appears to work without
noticeable spillover, and that the proposed bulk and scale fit the area given the adjacent park.
Another expressed a preference for the community garden (raised beds), was supportive of shifting
the buildings five feet to enlarge the north buffer, and sought legal input on whether a dog park fits
the code term "amusement centers, outdoors."
•
A Councilor observed that residents with a fenced area may let dogs out there regardless and that
Idaho has among the highest per-capita dog ownership in the country; the dog wash station was
seen as a separate noise concern.
•
Legal staff reminded Council that the applicant must have an opportunity for rebuttal. The applicant
had no further comments and said he is willing to accommodate Council's direction. The applicant
verbally agreed to remove the dog park and to work with the neighboring HOA on a fence,
understood as an arrangement between the two parties and not a condition of approval.

Mayor and Council Reports
Mayor Burtenshaw invited Councilor Francis to begin the reports, concerns, and questions
portion of the meeting. The packet for this item included the Idaho Falls Downtown
Development Corporation minutes for July and August 2026, the October 6, 2026, Planning and
Zoning Commission action report, and the White Cane Safety Awareness Day 2026
proclamation.
Association of Idaho Cities (AIC) and Health Insurance. Council President Francis reported
that the AIC board meets next Monday, October 26, and that he serves on that board. He asked
whether Council still had an appetite for pursuing legislation that would allow cities to join the
State of Idaho insurance pool and whether AIC should be asked to take a formal position.
Council members noted that the State plan recently took an increase of roughly 20 percent,
which was passed directly to the school districts, and that districts that joined the State plan
have no ability to renegotiate or control plan design. Council members expressed continued
interest in keeping all options on the table, including a regional approach with neighboring
municipalities such as Shelley and Rigby and a possible partnership with Bonneville County
and the school district to increase group size.
Self-insurance was discussed. It was noted that Human Resources Director Jones has been
working on a sustainability analysis, that the City is near the threshold of having sufficient
reserves to self-insure, and that Bonneville County has statutory privileges, including relief
City Council

from taxes on its policies, that the City does not have. Council members discussed how stop-
gap coverage could limit exposure to high claims, a locally operated self-insured group of
approximately 8,000 covered lives that could serve as a model for a municipal pool, and an
example presented at AIC of an Ohio city that used legal settlement proceeds to open a city-
run clinic. It was noted that a self-insured approach would require the elected officials to
commit to steady annual increases of approximately 8 to 8.5 percent in both good and bad
years in order to stabilize the plan, and that the work has been turned over to Finance to model.
It was also noted that the City and the County each spend approximately $15 million annually
on health insurance. Staff indicated that a broader Council conversation will be scheduled.
Council President Francis asked that staff send him a description of the County's statutory
privileges so that he can raise the issue with AIC, which has staff who can research it.
Councilors also discussed the AIC Legislative Summit in early December, and Council
President Francis stated that he cannot attend the Summit but several other Councilors said
they were planning to attend.
Police Complex Community Use. Council President Francis shared that a recent Coffee with
a Cop event was held in the training and community rooms at the new police complex. Deputy
Chief Gilbert reported a large turnout, including several local business owners, and Council
President Francis commented that it was good to see the space being used as the community
gathering place that Council envisioned when it voted to build the complex.
Trunk or Treat. Councilor Radford reported that Council members had a good experience
representing the City Council at the Trunk or Treat event.
Electric Motorcycles and Scooters. A Council member reported that work on a City policy for
electric motorcycles and scooters is nearing completion and that the committee advising on
the topic would prefer to review a City proposal rather than create one. The primary policy
questions are what level of electric vehicle should be allowed for youth ages 14 to 18 and at
what speed. Current thinking would limit youth to pedal-assist vehicles at speeds of up to 15 to
20 miles per hour, rather than the 40-mile-per-hour models that are being sold locally and
online. Council members agreed the draft is close enough to be shared with the advisory
committee.
Gem State Housing Alliance Forum. It was reported that Council members attended a
housing forum sponsored by the Gem State Housing Alliance, at which Representative
Bingham and other state legislators participated. Councilor Radford also attended. The
discussion produced good ideas, and Council members look forward to future collaboration
with state representatives on housing challenges. The Alliance was scheduled to make a
presentation on Tuesday, October 20, which City staff were expected to attend. Mayor
Burtenshaw and Council members commented favorably on Representative Bingham's
understanding of the challenges facing cities.
Public Works and Citywide Updates. The following updates were provided:
City Council

680 Park Avenue
Idaho Falls, ID
•
An agreement has been reached to bring Idaho State University interns into PW.
•
The ice rink had a difficult opening weekend due to compressor and coolant leak
problems that softened the ice; repairs have been completed and the rink is operating
normally. A separate water line leak at the Zoo has also required repairs.
•
Curbside leaf collection begins Monday, Oct 26, and runs through Friday, Nov 20. The
schedule and map are available at idahofalls.gov. Collected leaves will go to the
City's new composting project, and crews will begin north of town and work south.
•
The roundabout at Boulevard and Birch is now open.
•
A section of road on Rollandet down to Sunnyside behind the Zoo will be closed
beginning Monday for water line repairs.
•
The 49th South and Holmes project is open to traffic. Council members noted a "road
closed" sign at the St. Clair and Holmes intersection that did not appear to be a City
sign; staff will look into it.
Councilor Radford noted that he will be traveling with Sister Cities on Thursday and will be
absent from the October 22 City Council meeting.

Starter Home Subdivision Code Revision Review
Planned Unit Development (PUD) Tour. Director Sanner advised Council that PUDs will be
discussed again at the November 16 work session. Staff will release a self-guided electronic
PUD tour on Tuesday, October 20, and will send the link to the City Clerk for distribution to
Council. The tour will also be provided to the Planning Commission. It includes a number of
PUDs, including two legacy PUDs (the earliest approved in the 1980s and another from 2004)
and three standard developments for comparison. Each stop highlights issues previously
raised by Council, such as parking, private streets, amenities, and detention ponds, provides a
link to the approved site plan and public hearing minutes, and offers space for comments.
Council members were encouraged to visit the sites in person.
Presentation. Director Sanner introduced Caitlin Long, Planner, who presented the proposed
starter home subdivision ordinance. Senate Bill 1352 prohibits cities from enacting or enforcing
ordinances that ban starter home subdivisions in residential zoning areas, and the City must
implement its ordinance by February 1, 2027. Ms. Long reviewed the timeline: the Starter Home
Subdivision Committee, which included Council members, Planning Commission members,
engineers, developers, and staff, met on August 27 and September 22, 2026; the draft
ordinance is on the November 4th Planning Commission agenda; and it is tentatively scheduled
for City Council on December 11th. She noted that both the state law and the City's process are
new and that adjustments may be needed after the first projects are reviewed. Feedback from
the committee centered on parking, lot coverage, attached homes, and density.

Ms. Long reviewed the following key provisions of the draft ordinance, which was included in
the Council packet:
•
Applicability. Starter home subdivisions are a permitted use in all residential zones on
parcels of four acres or larger, reduced to two acres in the R2, TN, R3, R3A, RMH, LC,
and CC zones.
•
Permitted uses. Single-unit detached dwellings are required by state law. The draft
also allows single-unit attached dwellings, except that in the RE and RP zones only
detached dwellings are allowed, to help protect compatibility with those zones. In the
CC zone, detached and attached dwellings would be allowed only within a starter home
subdivision.
•
Setbacks. The front setback is 15 feet and the side setback is 5 feet, as provided in
state law. The rear setback is proposed at 10 feet rather than 15 feet, reduced to 3 feet
where the lot abuts a public or private alley. The 15-foot front utility easement means
the home will effectively sit at 16 feet or more from the property line.
•
Lot size. State law appears to contradict itself on whether 1,500 square feet is a
minimum or a maximum, and two legal opinions (one from the Legislative Services
Office and one from the Gem State Housing Alliance) interpret it differently. A clarifying
amendment is anticipated in 2027. The draft therefore sets no minimum or maximum
lot size; lots must be sized to accommodate the required setbacks, and corner lots
must accommodate two front setbacks.
•
Lot coverage and density. Maximum lot coverage is 80 percent, counting only areas
under roof (not driveways or patios), and maximum density is 15 units per gross acre or
the density of the underlying zone if greater. State law does not address either.
•
Parking. Two spaces (10 by 20 feet) are required per lot, and tandem parking is allowed
on an approved driveway leading to a garage or a stall behind the front setback. If a
private alley is included, parking may be reduced to one stall accessed from the alley.
State law does not address parking.
•
Accessory structures, height, and approval. Accessory structures must meet
setbacks and count toward lot coverage, and height follows the underlying zone. A
starter home subdivision would be approved as a preliminary plat decided by the
Planning Commission at a public hearing, preceded by a required neighborhood
meeting, and appealable to Council. The project would be identified on the plat and as
a separate case type in the City's permitting software.
•
Definitions. The proposed definition describes a residential subdivision designed for
compact home sizes on small lots with frontage on a public street. The word
"attainable" was removed because it is difficult to define. The ordinance also includes
updated dwelling unit definitions that were previously reviewed by Legal and other
departments during the impact fee discussions.
City Council

680 Park Avenue
Idaho Falls, ID
Public street standards would continue to apply, and Public Works driveway standards,
including the limit of 50 percent of lot frontage, would still apply.
Council Discussion. Council members raised the following points:
•
The terms "attainable" and "compatible" in the state statute are subjective and
undefined. Staff and Council discussed whether the City could define attainable (for
example, as a percentage of average household income), whether it could use a
statement of criteria, and whether doing so would exceed the City's authority; Legal
advised that the City likely cannot be more restrictive than state law and that a stricter
definition could be challenged. Council also discussed whether the compatibility
language provides any basis for denial, and it was noted that the statute requires the
use to be permitted in all residential zones.
•
Because a starter home subdivision is a permitted use under state law, the City's only
opportunity to learn a developer's intent is at annexation and initial zoning, where the
City reviews land use and consistency with the Comprehensive Plan rather than the
ultimate use. Council expressed concern about a "bait and switch" in which land is
annexed as R1 and later platted as a starter home subdivision. Staff noted that the
required neighborhood meeting before the preliminary plat application, and the
Planning Commission public hearing, would give neighbors an opportunity for input,
and that Council would welcome clear communication that this is a state mandate.
•
Several Council members discussed parking. One Council member noted that required
parking can add $5,000 to $20,000 per home, a figure staff estimated at about $10,000
today, and questioned whether any parking requirement is consistent with the goal of
attainable housing. Other Council members, including Mayor Burtenshaw, expressed
concern about snow removal, cars parked on public streets blocking emergency
access, and driveways limiting snow storage. Staff explained that the draft is a middle
ground between standard parking requirements and no requirement, and that tandem
parking requests came directly from the development community.
•
Council members discussed whether the City could require building elevations or
architectural review in residential zones. Staff and Legal indicated this is probably not
permitted for a subdivision under the legislation, and the development community has
said architectural review slows projects and is subjective. Council asked Legal to
determine whether architectural review committees are legally allowed in Idaho
residential zones and whether the state legislation affects communities that already
have them.
•
Council members praised the work of the committee and staff and agreed that the draft
carries out the Legislature's intent with additional guardrails. Council members
suggested sharing the draft with the Gem State Housing Alliance and AIC, including
suggestions for the anticipated 2027 amendment, and noted that other cities are

seeking ways to limit or sidestep the legislation. Staff reported that neighboring Ammon
appears to be taking a somewhat different route and may try to restrict density.
•
Staff reported that no developers have yet requested pre-development meetings or
formally asked about starter home subdivisions.
Council members indicated that the timeline is necessary to meet the February 1, 2027,
requirement and that staff should continue moving forward on the schedule presented.
Mayor Burtenshaw asked Director Sanner and Ms. Long to work closely with the City's
Public Information Officers on messaging and any news releases before the Planning
Commission hearing.

4. Public Comment
Mayor Burtenshaw noted that one public hearing was scheduled for the evening (the amendment to Title 11
regarding drinking establishments in the LC zone) and asked that those attending for that item wait until the
hearing was open. She explained that Council does not engage in back-and-forth during public comment but
listens, and that a City department will follow up.
Colby Hatton (IF Resident), representing Stronger Idaho Falls, spoke about the cost of mandatory off-street
parking, citing Donald Shoup’s book The High Cost of Free Parking. He said off-street parking spaces cost
roughly $5,000 each and that, at the national average, the City has about three dedicated parking spaces per
resident. He argued that these costs are reflected in higher prices for goods and services, that excessive
minimum parking requirements consume valuable downtown land that could be used for businesses,
housing, or parks, and that large parking lots make walking and cycling less practical. Hatton said Stronger
Idaho Falls encourages code reform to dramatically reduce or eliminate minimum parking requirements
Citywide, which he said would encourage smaller, local businesses, better land use, and environmental and
financial sustainability.
Shane Dial (Idaho Falls Downtown Merchants Association), spoke about the proposed agreements
between the City and the Idaho Falls Downtown Development Corporation (IFDDC) and urged that Council
reevaluate signing said agreements and investigate IFDDC and its business practices. He said IFDDC’s core
purposes are promotion, economic development, organizational governance, and design preservation, and
noted a dramatic decline in those activities. He stated that downtown events have dropped from 21 annual
events two years ago to seven, three of which are drinking events. He pointed out that the Ladies’ Shopping
Day and other shopping-day events were eliminated, the event coordinator was let go, and staff were
reduced to three people, with one dedicated just to parking. He said IFDDC spends $63,000 a year on
flowers and has an approximately $11,000 legal-fee line item that no one can explain. Dial recommended a

full audit of IFDDC and explained that local merchants formed their own association because IFDDC does not
consult with them. He cited the Oktoberfest event, where a crystal vendor was set up in front of an existing
crystal shop, and no IFDDC event coordinator could be reached to address questions and issues at the event.
Kerry Hammon (Executive Director, IFDDC), distributed a two-page fact sheet about IFDDC’s operations.
She said IFDDC has had two employees (an executive director and an operations manager) plus a parking
ambassador since she began two years ago; a contracted event coordinator position ended in March and
she has handled event coordination since, with interviews underway for a replacement. She said IFDDC runs
13 events and programs annually, including two new events this year: a Holiday Showcase and a retail-
focused Holiday Shopping Guide. She stated there are active negotiations on City beautification and the
budget, and explained that the IFDDC has already released a survey to merchants and property owners, with
an events survey in progress. Hammon explained that IFDDC no longer serves alcohol at events, in response
to merchant feedback and liability concerns, and instead allows participating businesses to sell it directly.
She noted that the Business Improvement District (BID) assessment has increased 18% since 2017 while the
cost of living in Idaho Falls has increased 38%.
Matt Jacobsen (IFDDC Board President), said the merchants’ concerns deserve consideration and that
IFDDC is making changes, including more family-oriented events not centered on drinking, while noting that
downtown revitalization and marketing take long-term consistency and that event benefits are not always
immediate sales. He said he has reached out personally to Holiday House three times, acknowledged that
flowers are currently overpriced and that IFDDC is working to lower the cost. He welcomes IFDDC merchants
to engage and offer ideas. He supported renewing the management agreement.
Terri Ireland (IF Resident), said she is a member of both IFDDC and the Merchants Association and that most
of the contention is historic. She said there is currently little to no trust between merchants and IFDDC. She
asked why the parking management boundaries in Exhibit A (page 274) do not match the Business
Improvement District boundaries, and why Section 1.4 states that revenues may be used for public
transportation or any city street or public right-of-way rather than downtown specifically. She also relayed
that merchants would prefer no events involving downtown street closures.
Cumorah Shuler (IF Resident), a full-time manager at Cannon Skate Shop, said she values community and
the idea of downtown Idaho Falls. She urged everyone to remember the purpose of a downtown community
and to work together and listen to one another.

IFDDC Parking Program MOU
Presentation/Discussion (COS Wimborne): Chief of Staff Wimborne presented the updated
IFDDC Parking Program Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) together with the IFDDC
Management Services Agreement, explaining that both agreements have been in place for
several years and are renewed annually. The updates focused on general cleanup, streamlining
reporting and payment processes, and aligning calendars so that reports to merchants and the
Council work better. She thanked Ms. Hammon and Mr. Jacobsen and the IFDDC Board for their
work on the agreements.
The IFDDC has managed downtown parking for an annual fee for several years. Changes added
more detail in Section 1.4 on the payment schedule, addressed indemnification concerns in
Section 1.6, set a specific period for the parking report in Section 1.7, and streamlined reporting
requirements that were not being used. Regarding public comment on boundaries and
spending, she said those provisions have been part of the agreement for some time and that
some lots may not align with the district boundaries. She plans to research the question and
follow up with Ms. Ireland. She also noted a change to the agreement (made that afternoon)

directing notices to Municipal Services rather than Community Development Services, as
pointed out by Council President Francis.
Council President Francis said downtown parking has been more efficient and equitable since
IFDDC took it over from the Police Department and expressed appreciation for IFDDC’s work and
for collaboration that has made street parking more available to customers. Councilor Ziel-
Dingman clarified that the agreement with IFDDC to manage parking does not depend on the
BID; the area could be expanded or reduced, and alignment with the BID is not relevant to the
agreement. COS Wimborne agreed that it is a separate, standalone agreement, and Council
President Francis noted this is why there were two separate agreements and motions.
Motion: Approve the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Idaho Falls Downtown
Development Corporation (IFDDC) to manage downtown parking as the downtown enforcement
organization, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the necessary documents.

IFDDC Management Services Agreement
Presentation/Discussion (COS Wimborne): Chief of Staff Wimborne explained that the
agreement retains IFDDC to provide management services for the Business Improvement
District and has been in place for some time. Updates added clarity and cleanup: Sections 3 and
4 adjusted the timeline for when IFDDC reports to the City and Council and holds its annual
meeting (previously reversed); Section 7 clarified language on assessments, collections, and
payments, developed with Finance; and Section 9 updated responsibilities for submitting BID
assessments to Bonneville County. She noted that Attachment A, referenced in public comment,
is a draft and that IFDDC is awaiting additional input from downtown merchants and BID
members, particularly regarding the event calendar.
Councilor Freeman said the Council receives conflicting information (some say there are too
many events, others too few; some say the flowers are too expensive, others love them), that
IFDDC has a great track record, and that downtown has a real sense of community and is better
than it has ever been. Council President Francis thanked Ms. Wimborne for her work on the
agreements, pointed out that the city’s image is its downtown and that IFDDC’s work cannot be
replaced, and emphasized the need for collaboration. He said that, based on his notes from the
most recent Downtown Merchants meeting, all but one of the concerns raised about IFDDC are
resolvable, and that Director Hammon is ready to work on them. He expressed strong support
for renewing the agreement.
Motion: Approve the agreement with the Idaho Falls Downtown Development Corporation (IFDDC)
to provide management services for the Business Improvement District (BID) and authorize the
Mayor and City Clerk to execute the necessary documents.

Final Plat, Development Agreement, and Reasoned Statement of Relevant Criteria and
Standards, Arbor Estates Division No. 1
Presentation/Discussion (Director Sanner): Director Sanner addressed two items raised by
Council President Francis. First, the Development Agreement’s special condition SC 5.0 (Exhibit
A) provided a one-year utility trenching warranty; Idaho Falls Power reached out and the
developer agreed to revise the language to a two-year warranty, consistent with current policy.
He explained that the one-year language was boilerplate, that the revised agreement will be
brought back with the new language, and that the developer will agree to it before the Mayor
signs. Public Works and Power are on board with the change.
Second, Director Sanner reviewed the plat for a 70-lot R-1 subdivision northwest of the
intersection of Holmes and 65th South. The plat dedicates 50 feet from the centerline along
both Holmes and 65th South, consistent with the traffic study and accommodating right-turn
lanes and future arterial widening, which is standard Public Works practice. He said the plat is
approximately 2.3 lots per acre (about two units per acre); the smallest lot is approximately
8,400 square feet and some are about 21,000 square feet, with one large lot set aside for a
religious institution (an LDS church) and another for retention. The Planning and Zoning
Commission considered the item on June 2, 2026 (incorrectly stated as June 6th by Director
Sanner), with no public comment, and recommended approval unanimously.
Mayor Burtenshaw added that Riddle Way connects to a parcel owned by the school district,
which will have no access to 65th South and will access only from that street and potentially
from Holmes, because of access management. She said the City continues to reach out to the
school district about its long-term plans.
Motion 1: Approve the Development Agreement for the Final Plat for Arbor Estates Division No. 1
and give authorization for the Mayor and City Clerk to sign said agreement, with SC 5.0 revised to
require a two-year warranty.

26-409 Legislative Public Hearing — Amendment to Title 11, Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance,
Sections 11-2-2: Allowing Drinking Establishments in LC, Limited Commercial Zones as a
Permitted Use
Presentation/Discussion (Director Sanner): Director Sanner explained that during revisions to
the alcohol ordinance, staff learned that standalone drinking establishments are not allowed in
the LC zone, although they are allowed in the HC and CC zones and restaurants serving alcohol
are allowed in LC. The original reasoning was that LC zones sit adjacent to residential properties,
but staff found no reason to continue the restriction. The code change is a single “P” (permitted)
in the use table. The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on September 1,
2026 (per agenda), where no one spoke, and voted unanimously to approve after discussing
why standalone establishments were not permitted in LC.
In response to Councilor Freeman, Director Sanner recalled earlier requests from a cigar lounge
and from a bookstore hosting an evening book club that could not serve wine in the LC zone and
said he expects those businesses may return. He noted that a liquor license would still be
required. Mayor Burtenshaw thanked Council President Francis for identifying the issue.
Public Hearing: No public testimony was given. The hearing was closed.
Motion: Approve the ordinance amending Title 11, Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Sections 11-
2-2, Allowed Uses in Commercial Zones, to permit drinking establishments as an allowed use in the
LC, Limited Commercial Zone, 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 2027 VOTE
The BID expires in 2027 unless a majority (50% + 1) of district property owners sign to renew it for 10 more years. Without it, the
flowers, wreaths, events and programs, facade and sign grant priority, public art and the full-time advocate end, and so does the
regional marketing that only a nonprofit can secure. Downtown-run parking is a separate City contract, but with no one downtown to
run it, it would most likely go back to City Hall. Renewal keeps downtown the region's center for commerce, culture and leisure.

lawfully claims to have held, rights in the premises by or through DEVELOPER and
DEVELOPER’s successors or assigns, respectively, as of the date of this AGREEMENT.
9. Water and Sewer Main Connection Charges. DEVELOPER agrees to pay to CITY at
the time any separate sanitary sewer service or culinary water service connection to CITY sanitary
sewer system or culinary water system is requested, all connection fees, main connection charges,
and main charges as set forth in the City Code in effect at the time such request for service is made.
10. Failure to Pay Fees. In the event DEVELOPER fails or refuses to pay any of the fees,
charges or costs set forth herein, CITY may disannex any property owned by DEVELOPER within
the Subdivision or declare the entire unpaid balance immediately due and payable and collect such
sums in the mannet provided by law, or may pursue any other remedy set forth herein or as may
be available at law or in equity. All such remedies shall be cumulative and CITY may pursue the
same separately or simultaneously as it deems necessary or appropriate. In the event of such
acceleration, all sums due shal! bear interest at the rate established by law for judgments entered
in the State of Idaho, commencing on the date the unpaid amount is declared immediately due and
written demand therefor is delivered to DEVELOPER. All fees owed by DEVELOPER are due
and payable upon execution of this AGREEMENT unless otherwise specified.
Il. Participation by CITY. The parties agree that those portions of the water main, the
sanitary sewer line, storm drains and street section work (hereafter collectively referred to as the
“Shared Work”), the cost (if any) of which CITY may have expressly agreed to pay pursuant to
the Special Conditions (if any conditions for reimbursement are contained therein), which may
include any water or sewer line or storm line extensions, increased line size or capacity and road
construction, are required’ because of future service needs originating from properties not owned
by DEVELOPER and located within the vicinity of the Subdivision, and that sound planning
requires construction thereof at the present time in order to accommodate future expansion and
development. In recognition of the cost savings which can be accomplished by construction of
such increased capacity and improvenients concurrently with the facilities to be constructed for
DEVELOPER's purposes, and the impracticality of constructing such increased capacity and
improvements separately or at a later time, DEVELOPER agrees to design and construct such
facilities subject to CITY's agreement to reimburse DEVELOPER for a portion of such costs, to
DEVELOPMEN'!’ AGREEMENT — MILLCREEK METALS — 10.24.26 PAGE 5 OF 14
the extent such is set forth in the Special Conditions. If such reimbursement for the Shared Work
is set forth in the Special Conditions, prior to the commencement of the Shared Work,
DEVELOPER shall obtain and deliver to CITY three (3) independent bona fide bids for the
performance of such work from qualified and responsible contractors. Such bids shall be solicited
and itemized in a manner which allows clear and specific identification of that portion of the
construction work for which CITY is responsible. CITY shall have no obligation to pay for any
portion of the costs of such Shared work unless prior to the commencement of the work, the parties
have expressly agreed in writing to a specific amount for which CITY will reimburse the
DEVELOPER. Payment of such costs by CITY shall be due within thirty (30) days from when
all of the following have been completed or received: (1) acceptance of the Subdivision by CITY;
(2) delivery of a complete itemized statement to CITY, in a format acceptable to the CITY, setting
forth in detail the total amount of the costs for which CITY is responsible; and, if any part of the
Subdivision is within the boundaries of an urban renewal district, (3) a sworn statement signed by
DEVELOPER, including its successors and assigns, and acknowledged by the Urban Renewal
Agency for the City of Idaho Falls, Idaho, also known as Idaho Falls Redevelopment Agency (the
“Agency”), that DEVELOPER paid for the costs of the Shared Work and that DEVELOPER and
its successors and assigns has not contracted with and will not contract with the Agency for
reimbursement of any portion of the costs of the Shared Work and has not received and will not
receive reimbursement from the Agency for any portion of the costs of the Shared Work. To the
extent DEVELOPER, or its successors and assigns, have contracted or contract in the future with
the Agency for reimbursement for any portion of the costs of the Shared Work, the CITY’s
obligation to reimburse DEVELOPER under this AGREEMENT shall be reduced on a dollar-for-
dollar basis, Under no circumstances will the CITY and Agency each reimburse DEVELOPER
or any third party for the same costs of the Shared Work. In the event DEVELOPER is reimbursed
by CITY for any portion of the costs of the Shared Work that was also reimbursed by the Agency
to DEVELOPER or another third-party, the CITY may, in addition to any other legal remedies
available under the law, immediately pursue DEVELOPER and require DEVELOPER to repay to
CITY any amount that CITY paid DEVELOPER for the costs of the Shared Work that were also
reimbursed by Agency and, if CITY prevails, CITY shall be entitled to an award of attorneys fees
and costs. DEVELOPER shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CITY and Agency from
claims of any nature that any third party may assert against CITY or Agency for any costs of the
Shared Work CITY pays DEVELOPER pursuant to this AGREEMENT and which same costs the
third party claims are due from CITY or Agency to the third party.

SURVEYOR'S NARRATIVE
THIS SURVEY WAS MADE AT THE REQUEST OF TROY JENKINS WITH THE INTENTIONS TO PLAT THE LAND SHOWN FOR FUTURE
DEVELOPMENT.
THE WEST BOUNDARY WAS DETERMINED BY FOUND MONUMENTS, SECTION CONTROL AND INFORMATION FOUND IN DEEDS INSTRUMENT
No. 1659744 AND 1780998. THE NORTH BOUNDARY WAS DETERMINED BY INFORMATION FOUND IN DEED INSTRUMENT No. 1775251. THE EAST
AND WEST AND SOUTH BOUNDARIES WERE DETERMINED BY THE RIGHT-OF-WAY OF RECYCLE ROAD AND 33RD NORTH.
RECYCLE ROAD AND 33RD NORTH:
RIGHT-OF-WAYS WERE DETERMINED BY FOUND RIGHT-OF-WAY MONUMENTS ALONG 33RD NORTH AND RECYCLE ROAD. COMBINED WITH
INFORMATION SHOWN ON ITD PLANSET F-FG-6471 (62), RECORD OF SURVEY FILED AS INSTRUMENT No. 1748248, AND DEED FILED AS
INSTRUMENT No. 618258. FOUND MONUMENTS AND RECORD INFORMATION MATCHED WELL, OTHER THAN THE CURVE FOR 33RD NORTH
SHOWN AS CURVE C3 ON THIS SURVEY. IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN HARMONY WITH THE RECOVERED MONUMENTS AND RECORD
INFORMATION AS DESCRIBED ABOVE I COULD NOT MAINTAIN TANGENCY WITH THE CURVE FOR 33RD NORTH. I RESOLVED THE
CENTERLINE CURVE BY MAINTAINING RECORD RADIUS LENGTH. C1 AND C4 SHOWN ON THIS PLAT ARE NOT PARALLEL WITH THE CURVE
ALONG 33RD NORTH. THEY ARE TANGENT WITH THE REST OF THE RIGHT-OF-WAY DEDICATION AREAS AND WILL CREATE A TANGENT
RIGHT-OF-WAY CURVE FOR FUTURE 33RD NORTH EXPANSION.
CANAL RIGHT-OF-WAY
ALL CANALS, AS SHOWN HEREON, EXIST WITHIN A RIGHT-OF-WAY DEFINED BY I.C. §42-1102 AND MUST HAVE WRITTEN PERMISSION OF
THE OWNER OR OPERATOR OF THE RIGHT-OF-WAY TO CONSTRUCT ANYTHING WITHIN, UNDER, UPON OR OVER THE AREA, TO ENSURE
THAT ANY SUCH ENCROACHMENTS WILL NOT UNREASONABLY OR MATERIALLY INTERFERE WITH THE USE AND ENJOYMENT OF THE

Recycle Road Commercial Park – Final Plat Extension
On May 21, 2026, the City Council unanimously approved the final plat for Recycle Road
Commercial Park. The applicant requests a 60-day extension to complete the remaining
administrative and technical requirements for recording the plat. The request affects only the
recording deadline and does not alter the approved final plat or development agreement. Since the
Council’s approval, no material changes have occurred in surrounding land uses, zoning,
infrastructure conditions, or applicable ordinances that would warrant reconsideration. Granting
the extension will allow the applicant to complete the recording process.
Subdivision Ordinance
Section 10-1-9(B)(5) Recording the Final Plat:
(b) Upon approval and execution of the final plat, the City Surveyor shall file the plat with
the Bonneville County Recorder’s office. All approved final plats shall be offered for
record within one hundred and eight (180) days following approval by the Council, unless
an extension of time for filing is granted by the Council.
(c) If the final plat is not offered for record within one hundred and eighty (180) days, or
other time period granted by the Council, because of the applicant’s failure to meet the
requirements specified herein, the Council may rescind its approval of the plat.

We have been working on the Recycle Road Division 1 plat and the needed

what we gather they are available now. Can we request a 60 day extension to get
this all finalized?

Final Plat
Requested Action: The Mayor and City Council to approve the final plat
as presented.
History: The property is currently zoned R1 Single Dwelling Residential
Zone, R2 Mixed Residential Zone, and P Public Zone. It was originally
annexed into the City in June 2019. This area is developing as part of the
Fairway Estates and generally includes single unit detached housing.
Staff Comments: The proposed final plat consists of 47 lots.
Approximately 14.22 acres and includes 45 buildable lots. Access to lots
will be from city streets. One of the non-buildable lots 18 block 20 is
intended to get utilities to a new sage lakes golf course restroom via a land
swap. This swap will require a rezone following approval of the plat, before
building can happen on lots affected.
Several sections of local streets will be constructed with this plat.
Whispering Rock Lane, Eagle Wood Drive, Rock Hollow Lane and
Cypress Creek
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as suburban and General
Urban.
Staff Recommendation: Staff has reviewed the final plat and finds it
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The plat also meets the
requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance and Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance. Staff recommends approval of the final plat as presented.

10-1-9: FINAL PLAT APPROVAL PROCESS
(A)(9) If the final plat conforms to the provisions of the Subdivision Ordinance and all other applicable
State or Federal laws, or local ordinances, the Council shall approve the final plat.
Zoning Ordinance:
PURPOSE OF ZONES
R1 Single Dwelling Residential Zone. This zone provides a residential zone which is
representative of a less automobile-oriented, more walkable development pattern,
characterized by somewhat smaller lot widths; and a somewhat denser residential
environment than is characteristic of the RP Residential Park Zone. The principal uses in
the R1 Residential Zone shall be single detached and attached dwelling units. This zone
is also generally located near limited commercial services that provide daily household
needs.
R2 Mixed Residential Zone. This zone provides a residential zone characterized by
smaller lots and dwellings, more compact and denser residential development; and higher
volumes of vehicular and pedestrian traffic than are characteristic of the RE, RP and R1
Zones. The principal uses permitted in the R2 Zone shall be one (1), two (2), three (3),
and four (4) dwelling units. This zone is also generally located near limited commercial
services that provide daily household needs.
P Public Zone This zone is primarily intended for public sites, buildings, and uses where
activities conducted provide service to the public. This zone can also be used as a
holding zone for properties that do not yet have an identified use. Another purpose of this
zone is to identify the appropriate location and efficient layout of public recreation and
open space. This zone will harmonize the various features and facilities of public sites,
buildings, parks, and playgrounds with the surrounding area. This zone can also
interconnect park and open space systems linked by trails, greenways, or other public
corridors. (Ord. 3496, 12-8-22)

4. Suburban
Snapshot: The Suburban Transect denotes existing or planned residential
areas in close proximity to or with easy vehicular access to regional
commercial service areas that provide daily household needs. These
areas contain various housing types, generally including detached and
attached single-unit dwellings, accessory dwelling units, duplexes and
triplex and fourplex units at a house scale. Residential development
should include a mix of housing types, price points and sizes and should
not be exclusively detached single-dwelling units. These areas could
also include parks, schools, churches and small commercial nodes
adjacent to major roadways. Curvilinear streets and cul-de-sacs are
common. Alfhough existing road patterns and lot sizes have created
low levels of connectivity and convenience to services, opportunities to
increase these features should be identified and planned for.

Snapshot: The General Urban Transect denotes residential areas with
a mix of commercial and service Uses convenient to residents. These
areas contain a wide variety of housing types, generally including
small single-units, duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, courtyard apartments,
bungalow courts, townhouses, multiplexes and live-work uni
ts. Lot
sizes are smaller and more compact than suburban areas. These
areas could also include, parks, schools, churches and com
mercial
services. These areas have highly connective street patterns, similar to
the traditional grid-patiern that encourages bicycle and pedestrian
usage. These areas should be near an existing or part of an
walkable center.

Applicant: Jared Huish, 720 E Center, Alpine, Utah, Focus Consulting. The preliminary plat was done
many years ago and they did not have to make a lot of adjustments. The amenities on the PUD have a lot of
connectivity with pathways and trails. They wanted to add in Division 30 for the neighbors the ability to 12’
trail to access the west side development as well as a walking path that is adjacent to the canal and the fairway.
It will allow connectivity throughout the neighborhood/community. They are working with the adjacent
property owner to create additional pathways and create a mile loop. They are working with staff and Parks
and Recreation on getting services (water/sewer) for flushable bathrooms on the north end of the property for
the golf course.
Stevens presented the staff report, a part of the record.
Meehan applauded the developer for going through the process and he is excited to see the improvements to
the Plan.
Ogden moved to recommend to the Mayor and City Council approval of the Final Plat for Fairway
Estates Subdivision No. 30. Panter seconded the motion. Ihler called for roll call vote: Harger, yes;
Storer, yes; Meehan, yes; Ihler, yes; Scales, yes; Scott, yes; Panter, yes; Ogden, yes. The motion passed
unanimously

accomplished. The Standard Specifications are incorporated herein by reference as though set out
in full and compliance to the Standard Specifications is a condition of this AGREEMENT.
4. Permits. DEVELOPER shall obtain all right-of-way, excavation and/or other permits
required by local ordinance and comply with all requirements therein with respect to the timely
performance of the work governed by such permits.

Specifications in effect at the time such construction was accomplished. The Project Engineer shall
also deliver to City Engineer all compaction reports, daily construction logs, reports, written tests,
analysis and other data as may be necessary to verify or support the certification of the Project
Engineer.
7. Acceptance of Subdivision. Upon satisfactory completion of such public improvements
and facilities, DEVELOPER's delivery of Corrected Improvement Plans and the filing and
approval by CITY of a final plat, CITY will accept that portion of the Subdivision for which a
final plat has been approved. Such acceptance shall not be valid unless expressly acknowledged
in writing by City Engineer. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Special Conditions,
upon acceptance of any phase or division within the Subdivision, CITY shall assume ownership
and control of all public facilities within any dedicated street or public utility right-of-way within
the Subdivision and shall execute and record an instrument documenting such acceptance and that
also references the recording information for this AGREEMENT and thereby releasing the
Subdivision, or the accepted portion thereof, from the encumbrances of this AGREEMENT.
Acceptance of the Subdivision Improvements and recording the acceptance instrument shall not
be deemed as a waiver of DEVELOPER's agreement herein to fully and completely perform the
terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT, or as a waiver or release of the warranty set forth
below in this AGREEMENT.
8. Warranty. DEVELOPER warrants that the materials and workmanship employed in the
construction of all public improvements within the Subdivision shall be good and sound, and shall
conform to generally accepted standards within the construction industry. Such warranty shall
extend for a period of one (1) year after acceptance of any phase or division of the Subdivision
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT — FAIRWAY ESTATES DIVISION NO. 30 — 10.24.26 PAGE 4 OF 15
within which such improvements are located, by CITY, provided nothing herein shall limit the
time within which CITY may bring an action against DEVELOPER on account of DEVELOPER's
failure to construct such improvements in accordance with this AGREEMENT, the Improvement
Plans or the Standard Specifications. DEVELOPER, and DEVELOPER’s heirs, successors and
assigns, shall and do hereby respectively warrant and agree, to defend the quiet and peaceful
possession of CITY in all easements, rights-of-way, street dedications or other estates conveyed
pursuant to the terms of this AGREEMENT or pursuant to the subdivision plat which is the subject
hereof, from and against all claims against: DEVELOPER and DEVELOPER's successors or
assigns, respectively, and against every person whomsoever who lawfully holds, or who later
lawfully claims to have held, rights in the premises by or through DEVELOPER and
DEVELOPER’s successors or assigns, respectively, as of the date of this AGREEMENT.
9. Water and Sewer Main Connection Charges. DEVELOPER agrees to pay to CITY at
the time any separate sanitary sewer service or culinary water service connection to CITY sanitary
sewer system or culinary water system is requested, all connection fees, main connection charges,
and main charges as set forth in the City Code in effect at the time such request for service is made.
10. Failure to Pay Fees. In the event DEVELOPER fails or refuses to pay any of the fees,
charges or costs set forth herein, CITY may disannex any property owned by DEVELOPER within
the Subdivision or declare the entire unpaid balance immediately due and payable and collect such
sums in the manner provided by law, or may pursue any other remedy set forth herein or as may
be available at law or in equity. All such remedies shall be cumulative and CITY may pursue the
same separately or simultaneously as it deems necessary or appropriate. In the event of such
acceleration, all sums due shall bear interest at the rate established by law for judgments entered
in the State of Idaho, commencing on the date the unpaid amount is declared immediately due and
written demand therefor is delivered to DEVELOPER. All fees owed by DEVELOPER are due
and payable upon execution of this AGREEMENT unless otherwise specified.
11. Participation by CITY. The parties agree that those portions of the water main, the
sanitary sewer line, storm drains and street section work (hereafter collectively referred to as the
“Shared Work”), the cost (if any) of which CITY may have expressly agreed to pay pursuant to
the Special Conditions (if any conditions for reimbursement are contained therein), which may
include any water or sewer line or storm line extensions, increased line size or capacity and road
construction, are required because of future service needs originating from properties not owned
by DEVELOPER and located within the vicinity of the Subdivision, and that sound planning
requires construction thereof at the present time in order to accommodate future expansion and
development. In recognition of the cost savings which can be accomplished by construction of
such increased capacity and improvements concurrently with the facilities to be constructed for
DEVELOPER's purposes, and the impracticality of constructing such increased capacity and
improvements separately or at a later time, DEVELOPER agrees to design and construct such
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT — FAIRWAY ESTATES DIVISION NO. 30 — 10.24.26 PAGE 5 OF 15
facilities subject to CITY's agreement to reimburse DEVELOPER for a portion of such costs, to
the extent such is set forth in the Special Conditions. If such reimbursement for the Shared Work
is set forth in the Special Conditions, prior to the commencement of the Shared Work,
DEVELOPER shall obtain and deliver to CITY three (3) independent bona fide bids for the
performance of such work from qualified and responsible contractors. Such bids shall be solicited
and itemized in a manner which allows clear and specific identification of that portion of the
construction work for which CITY is responsible. CITY shall have no obligation to pay for any
portion of the costs of such Shared work unless prior to the commencement of the work, the parties
have expressly agreed in writing to a specific amount for which CITY will reimburse the
DEVELOPER. Payment of such costs by CITY shall be due within thirty (30) days from when
all of the following have been completed or received: (1) acceptance of the Subdivision by CITY;
(2) delivery of a complete itemized statement to CITY, in a format acceptable to the CITY, setting
forth in detail the total amount of the costs for which CITY is responsible; and, if any part of the
Subdivision is within the boundaries of an urban renewal district, (3) a sworn statement signed by
DEVELOPER, including its successors and assigns, and acknowledged by the Urban Renewal
Agency for the City of Idaho Falls, Idaho, also known as Idaho Falls Redevelopment Agency (the
“Agency”), that DEVELOPER paid for the costs of the Shared Work and that DEVELOPER and
its successors and assigns has not contracted with and will not contract with the Agency for
reimbursement of any portion of the costs of the Shared Work and has not received and will not
receive reimbursement from the Agency for any portion of the costs of the Shared Work. To the
extent DEVELOPER, or its successors and assigns, have contracted or contract in the future with
the Agency for reimbursement for any portion of the costs of the Shared Work, the CITY’s
obligation to reimburse DEVELOPER under this AGREEMENT shall be reduced on a dollar-for-
dollar basis. Under no circumstances will the CITY and Agency each reimburse DEVELOPER
or any third party for the same costs of the Shared Work. In the event DEVELOPER is reimbursed
by CITY for any portion of the costs of the Shared Work that was also reimbursed by the Agency
to DEVELOPER or another third-party, the CITY may, in addition to any other legal remedies
available under the law, immediately pursue DEVELOPER and require DEVELOPER to repay to
CITY any amount that CITY paid DEVELOPER for the costs of the Shared Work that were also
reimbursed by Agency and, if CITY prevails, CITY shall be entitled to an award of attorneys fees
and costs. DEVELOPER shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CITY and Agency from
claims of any nature that any third party may assert against CITY or Agency for any costs of the
Shared Work CITY pays DEVELOPER pursuant to this AGREEMENT and which same costs the
third party claims are due from CITY or Agency to the third party.

Requested Action: To recommend approval of the rezone from from LC,
Limited Commercial to RMH, Residential Mobile and Manufactured Home
Zone to the Mayor and City Council.
Staff Recommendation: Staff has reviewed the application and finds the
request consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the surrounding zoning
of the area and recommends approval of the rezone from LC to RMH.
History: This property was annexed in Aug 2021. It was zoned at the time
as LC, Limited Commercial. This land has primarily been ag land.
Staff Comments: The requested zone is RMH Residential Mobile and
Manufactured Home Zone. This zone provides residential zones which is
characterized by a high density residential environment. A manufactured or
mobile home subdivision, mobile home park, or travel trailer park are
special facilities specifically designed to accommodate mobile or
recreational vehicles which may not conform to the requirements for
permanent location within other residential Zones within the City are
allowed within this zone.
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as General Urban. The
General Urban Transect denotes residential areas with a mix of commercial
and service uses convenient to residents and a wide variety of housing types.
Land to the north and south are zoned I&M, Industrial and Manufacturing
currently, but this area is changing to include more residential, daily services
and employment uses consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
The large area of industrial zoning to the north is the Hatch Pit, owned by
the city and operated by Bonneville County, and restricted to construction
and demolition debris. Eventually Hatch Pit will be reclaimed into open
space. The industrial land to the south across Willow Creek is a smaller
parcel, under five acres, and is unlikely to develop as a heavy industrial use.
H&K owns land to the west, across N. Boulevard right-of-way, that appears
from aerials to have been mined in the 90’s with a portion being filled as
part of the Hatch Pit operations. A portion of the land is still being used and
connected with Hatch Pit.
A PUD with townhomes is being proposed to the east. Development of
North Boulevard and a connection to Recycle Road will be required at time
of final development. A neighborhood meeting was held on August 25,
2026, and an email discussion between applicant and Project Manager
regarding the meeting has been attached.

Lot sizes within the General Urban Transect are smaller and more compact than suburban areas. These
areas could also include parks, schools, churches and commercial services. These areas have highly
connective street patterns, similar to the traditional grid-pattern that encourages bicycle and pedestrian
usage. These areas should be near an existing or part of a new walkable center. The requested RMH Zone
is consistent with the General Urban designation as it would provide varied house types on a small
footprint. Additionally, Willow Creek is intended to develop with a trail system that would connect to
future employment and service centers to the east and existing centers to the west with INL and University
Place.
The RMH Zone is present on the west and east sides of the city as well as in an area south of Sunnyside,
just east of Yellowstone Hwy. The Comprehensive Plan calls for diversifying the housing stock. Allowing
some RMH Zoning in all sections of the city is appropriate in trying to meet this goal. Mobile and
manufactured housing quality has increased dramatically in the last decade, and the development of more
home parks is key in providing affordable housing options for the community.
Rezoning Considerations:
Because the comprehensive plan provides only general guidance for zoning decisions, the Planning
Commission shall also take the following considerations into account:
Criteria for Rezoning Section 11-6- 5(I) of
Ordinance
Staff Comment
The Zoning is consistent with the principles of
City's adopted Comprehensive Plan, as required
by Idaho Code.
The RMH zone is consistent with the General
Urban transect in the City’s adopted
Comprehensive Plan.
The potential for traffic congestion as a result of
development or changing land use in the area and
need that may be created for wider streets,
additional turning lanes and signals, and other
transportation improvements
The change to the RMH Zone does not create
additional traffic congestion or requires a need for
wider streets beyond what LC would have already
created. Streets will need to be built to support the
future development.
The potential for exceeding the capacity of
existing public services, including, but not limited
to: schools, public safety services, emergency
medical services, solid waste collection and
disposal, water and sewer services, other public
utilities, and parks and recreational services
The RMH would not exceed the capacity for
public services.
The potential for nuisances or health and safety
hazards that could have an adverse effect on
adjoining properties
The provisions of the RMH standards will not
have an effect or potential for nuisances or
adverse effect on adjoining properties.
Recent changes in land use on adjoining parcels or
in the neighborhood of the proposed zoning map
amendment
This area is seeing development a mix of
commercial and Residential are being proposed
and built.
Zoning Application Questions:
Applicant’s Response:
Explain how the proposed change is in accordance
with the City of Idaho Falls Comprehensive Plan.
The RMH zone fits within the General Urban
concept by utilizing alternate housing types and is
in an infill area of the city of Idaho Falls.
What changes have occurred in the area to justify
the request for rezone?
Within reasonable distance to this property, there
are new commercial developments being
proposed, other multifamily developments and
other services.
Page 3 of 5
Are there existing land uses in the area similar to
the proposed use?
There are numerous multifamily developments
that either have been approved or are in the
process of being approved.
Is the site large enough to accommodate required
access, parking, landscaping, etc. for the proposed
use?
Yes. This property has access to North Blvd and
through a cross access easement access to
Recycle/Jack Jenkins Road.

Public Hearing:
6. RZN 26-006 REZONE FROM LC TO RMH.
Applicant: Blake Jolley, Connect Engineering 2295 N. Yellowstone. Highway, Idaho Falls, Idaho. Jolley
stated that they are requesting a zone change from LC to RMH. Jolley stated the property is west of new
maverick off of North 5th East and North of 33rd. East of the potential North Boulevard Extension and south of
the current hatch pit. This property is 15.9 acres that was initially requested LC with the property to the east in
2021. There was a PUD for Creekside Townhomes that was approved and that is planned to be under
construction on the east side of this property. This is consistent with the area and what can be done in the area
with alternative types of housing, and they want something different that would be allowed in the RMH Zone
to allow different types of housing.
Stevens presented the staff report, a part of the record.
Meehan asked why they included the hatch pit information. Stevens stated that he wanted the commission to
be aware of what is adjacent to the property.
Ihler opened the public hearing.
SUPPORT/OPPOSITION: NO one appeared.
Ihler closed the public hearing.
Scott stated that he lived in a lot of mobile home trailer parks and they get closed down because higher and
more cost-effective uses for the property come up. But this is a good place for it.
Ihler stated that the price point entry for mobile home is more flexible for most people and it opens up
opportunities. There is a stigma with mobile home parks, but it can be nice and gives more options.
Meehan stated that compatibility with surrounding land uses and they have not seen another application for a
mobile home and it is unfortunate that it is next to the dump as it does not speak greatly as to how they value
the housing. In the absence of another application, this is good to support. Meehan stated that Freeman Park
used to be the City dump and now it is a very nice park.
Scott stated that it is unfortunate to refer to the hatch pit as a dump, but it is a construction deposit.
Ihler stated that the highway could potentially go north through here and new highway could help with
transportation along with a nice park and this furthers the plan of opening it up to future residents.
Meehan moved to recommend to the Mayor and City Council approval of the rezone from LC to RMH
for 15.9 acres, Storer seconded the motion. Scott, yes; Panter, yes; Ogden, yes; Ihler, yes; Meehan, yes;
Harger, yes; Storer, yes. The motion passed unanimously.

Brian, i’m headed out of town. Can I get those to you on Tuesday? The two people that
showed up the only thing that was discussed was wondering what the RMH zone was and
curious about the potential timing for the development. They were neither for or against but
understood that change happens and generally were OK with what’s taking place in the
area. Really just attended to see what was being requested.

Requested Action: To approve the rezone from RE, Residential
Estate to RP, Residential Park to the Mayor and City Council.
History: This property was annexed in July 2018 with a larger city-
initiated annexation of properties that were city enclaves and those
that had city services. It was zoned at the time as RE, Residential
Estates which was a new zone with the 2018 zoning update and was
for one acre or more parcels that allowed for transitions of larger
properties to the city. It would generally not be used for new
subdivisions. It was also intended for the RE Zone to function as a
holding zone until these larger properties were ready to redevelop.
Staff Comments: The requested zone is RP, Residential Park Zone.
This zone provides a residential zone which is representative of an
automobile-oriented, suburban development pattern and
characterized by large lots. The principal use permitted in this Zone
shall be single unit dwellings. The only use difference between RE
and RP is that in RE, agriculture is permitted. RP currently
surrounds this property on the north, west and south side and across
Holmes to the south. The property currently is accessed from S
Holmes Ave, a Principal Arterial. The current use of a single unit
detached home is permitted in both zones so the zone change would
not result in a non conforming use. A neighborhood meeting was
held on August 12, 2026 and the notes from the meeting are
attached.
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as Suburban which
denotes existing or planned residential areas in close proximity to or
with easy vehicular access to regional commercial service areas that
provide daily household needs. The requested RP Zone is consistent
with the Suburban designation within the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff Recommendation: Staff has reviewed the application and
finds the request consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the
surrounding zoning of the area and recommends approval of the
rezone from RE to RP.

Rezoning
Considerations:
Because the comprehensive plan provides only general guidance for zoning
decisions, the Planning Commission shall also take the following considerations
into account:
Criteria for Rezoning Section 11-6- 5(I) of
Ordinance
Staff Comment
The Zoning is consistent with the principles of
City's adopted Comprehensive Plan, as required
by Idaho Code.
The RP zone is consistent with the Suburban
transect in the City’s
adopted Comprehensive Plan.
The potential for traffic congestion as a result of
development or changing land use in the area and
need that may be created for wider streets,
additional turning lanes and signals, and other
transportation improvements
The change to the RP Zone does not create
additional traffic congestion or require a need for
wider streets. Holmes is already an Arterial and
made to move traffic.
The potential for exceeding the capacity of
existing public services, including, but not limited
to: schools, public safety services, emergency
medical services, solid waste collection and
disposal, water and sewer services, other public
utilities, and parks and recreational services
The RP would not exceed the capacity for public
services.
The potential for nuisances or health and safety
hazards that could have an adverse effect on
adjoining properties
The provisions of the RP standards will not have
an effect or potential for nuisances or adverse
effect on adjoining properties.
Recent changes in land use on adjoining parcels or
in the neighborhood of the proposed zoning map
amendment
No recent changes.
Zoning Application Questions:
Applicant’s Response:
Explain how the proposed change is in accordance
with the City of Idaho Falls Comprehensive Plan.
When our lot and home was annexed into the city,
we were granted the zone of Residential Estate
(RE) to maintain the animal rights. We are a zone
island and would like to switch to Residential
Park (RP) to fit all of the surrounding properties.
What changes have occurred in the area to justify
the request for rezone?
Nothing has changed. We would like to match the
zoning of all surrounding parcels.
Are there existing land uses in the area similar to
the proposed use?
Yes. This change would bring our parcel in
conformity with all other parcels of land around
us.
Is the site large enough to accommodate required
access, parking, landscaping, etc. for the proposed
use?
Yes. There are no proposed changes to parking,
landscaping, etc. This is simply a zone change
request.

Shborban Snapshot: The Suburban Transect denotes existing or planned residential
areas in close proximity to or with easy vehicular access to regional
commercial service areas that provide daily household needs. These
areas contain various housing types, generally including detached and
attached single-unit dwellings, accessory dwelling units, duplexes and
triplex and fourplex units at a house scale. Residential development
should include a mix of housing types, price points and sizes and should
not be exclusively detached single-dwelling units. These areas could
also include parks, schools, churches and small commercial nodes
adjacent to major roadways. Curvilinear streets and cul-de-sacs are
common. Although existing road patterns and lot sizes have created
low levels of connectivity and convenience to services, opportunities to
increase these features should be identified and planned for.

Public Hearing:
5. RZN26-005: REZONE FROM RE TO RP FOR 1.062 ACRES.
Ogden recused himself as he is the applicant.
Applicant: Glen Ogden, 4146 South Holmes Ave., Idaho Falls, Idaho. Ogden is asking for a potential
rezone for the property, 1.062 acres that Ogden occupies along Holmes. Ogden stated that the property was
annexed of the property in July 2018. The home that he lives in was built in 1954 and it was part of a larger
acreage farm that extended to Taylorview Middle School Ogden stated that when Taylorview as built the well
was capped and moved to City water. The property was part of the County and it was rural. Ogden bought it in
July 2018 as the annexation was happening. Ogden stated that the property was a County island and part of a
multi-county island annexation that the City initiated in July 2018 because the property was on city water and
was annexed. It is over 1 acre and has animal rights. The annexation zoning that was given the property was
RE zone which preserved the animal rights, but he has not had cows pigs, etc. They do not have animals and
do not need agricultural zoning. Ogden stated that the home is old and getting run down and they want to build
and develop the property at some point, and he is not sure how that would look, and that is a concern for his
neighbors. Ogden stated that the neighborhood meeting had questions of what they want to do, but they have
no plan except that everything around them is RP, and they are asking for RP instead of RE.
Long presented the staff report, a part of the record.
Ihler opened the public hearing.
SUUPPORT/OPPOSITION: Typed Verbatim
Mike Bailey, 440 Coven Creek Court, Idaho Falls, Idaho. I am just to the northwest of Glen on the map, I
live in Canterbury Park. I personally think Glen and Mindy Ogden are really great people. They are good
people to have for neighbors. There are some concerns about this. If you just look right now, and I totally get
it, going from an RE to an RP. RE that gentleman’s farm, those days are gone, and this RP zoning you know
probably makes sense to an extent. But what has been going on in the City is any time there is land, it seems
like people take it to the worst-case scenario immediately. So if you look at RP zoning, correct me if I am
wrong, it is 12,000 square feet per lot. Now the Ogden’s have 1.062 acres and that would allow 3.85 lots in
there. There is a density of 4 units per acre and I don’t know if they are going to say, put a townhome on one
lot and two houses in another and that is 4. I understand the dilemma that Mindy and Glen have in deciding
how to develop this. But there has to be some intentions and that has got us concerned. Because if you look at
this, just the whole surrounding area, let’s take worst case scenario, divide that into 3 lots, it doesn’t even
match anything close to the surrounding area. Now one thing that hasn’t been noted is the lot immediately to
the south of this parcel is also owned by the Ogdens. So now you increase this 1.062 and add another .835 I
believe was the number, or something close to that. Now you are almost up to 2 acres. Now, ok, we are going
to go with, well they can do whatever they want if it is the law. Now let’s go ahead and put in 6 houses on an
already, in an area that just does not support that. So I don’t know, I guess I just like to hear really the plans.
You know that is the concern. You know one day you wake up, you buy into a neighborhood that has .75 acre
lots. Back in the day there was a zoning I think specifically, I cannot remember what it was called, Residential
Park Estate, or I don’t know, but it was for larger lots, and that is when Canterbury was developed. I think this
RP is kind of came along as people are moving to town and they are trying to make better use of the ground.
So that is the concern, that really is going on, is what is the intent. Once you open up RP, you got the green
light to put in as many as you want. That lot to the south of the Ogdens is a 3 addition subdivision that goes
along Castle Rock Lane, Cache Estates, and the ordinances I don’t believe allow for him to split that up. We
talked on August 12th some ideas, it make sense, maybe, you got about 2 acres maybe if the neighbors can say
half acre lots that doesn’t conflict that much. But if you start talking about .275 lots coming in there, it just
doesn’t match and on top of that, Holmes is going to be widened. Right now, there is a stop sign going down
on 49th. Stop light. I feel that it will be great and clean up the area. Does that chop off some of this ground that
is 1.062 or not? I don’t know. Because that might be even a smaller lot that we are looking at, I don’t know
what that expansion on Holmes truly looks like. It looks like you are getting ready to move forward and that
would and that is another issue. When we met on August 12th there was a comment made, “well we might just
bring the road in along the Fergusons, Scott Ferguson is here, along his property line. I don’t know how many
people want a lane right next to their property line, but that is something you will have to address, and maybe
Scott can do it. So, you know, it’s, you wonder why neighbors get concerned. You know, you just heard this
gentlemen that had an R1 that is now going to be possibly having an R2/R3. You have people that have bought
in to neighborhood/subdivisions that are nice big lots, with now the potential for a change, and change isn’t
easy. But I just say if you are talking about Comprehensive, make it match. I think Glen could make a
beautiful home on the lot. Even if he still did half acre lots, I think you could probably do a couple, but if you
start talking maybe beyond that, which the RP allows, then it starts causing concerns. But just looking at your
map up there, and saying ok, worst-case scenario, best case scenario 1 lot, oh no problem matches perfectly.
Next case scenario 2 lots eh, not bad. Next scenario 3 lots/4 lots depending on what he does with the south lot,
doesn’t match. There it starts becoming, people start to get anxious. So that is my comments on that, and I
thank you for your time.
Scott Ferguson 445 Castlerock Lane, Idaho Falls, Idaho. It is hard to point out, I am the house on the left
side of the square there, that almost triangle piece, that one is mine. So, we’ve talked, me and Glen many
times about potential with the corner lot that he owns, plus that lot and what the future might hold. I agree
with Mike here, I would like to know is it allowed, because those three lots down there are like you said Cache
Estates, so on Cache Estates, when I bought my land to build my home, it said single family dwelling, it had to
be a certain size, with certain siding, with certain stone, with certain you know I had to follow all these rules to
build my house. Well, if this changes and then he is able to merge the corner lot into the top lot and they are
able to now subdivide them into quarter acre lots and then build all siding houses or whatever that is, now you
have just screwed me as a homeowner, because I had all these different rules behind me having to build there.
Now that is all taken away right. So, it kind of takes away my, this is my third home that I have built in Idaho
Falls. I built in St. Clair Estates, ok, and then somehow next to Keller Williams all those apartments got
approved. So we go from R1 to R3 not even R2, and it was like holy crap I was forced out of the neighborhood
because I was like, I don’t want all this next to me. So I sold my house during covid and build that house
during covid so that was fun paying $75,000 extra for my lumber. But this is my third home and I was telling
Glen’s wife that I had my first home at one point, we then bought another lot and built another home, and we
kept upgrading to the point that we built this home 5,000 square feet on 2/3 of an acre. It was a progression and
that is kind of what that neighborhood all encompasses and by changing this lot, it opens Pandora’s Box on
what now comes next for that corner. This morning, 911 was called on the corner of Castlerock Lane and
Holmes because a 13-year-old was run over by a car. 4 cop cars, ambulance all that were right there at that
intersection. That intersection is hell in the mornings. Opening this up to building 6 homes on the corner
changes visibility changes everything and makes that intersection way more dangerous than it already is. They
have already got the flashing light with the crosswalk, and people do not care on Holmes. The speed limit is
35. I cannot tell you how many times where it is 25 in front of my house, I have people going 60-65 in front of
Taylorview and I have kids playing out front. It is an absolute crap show. Glen knew what that lot was zoned
when he bought it in 2018, it can stay that way because I don’t want that Pandora’s Box to open. He knew
what the lot was zoned as, on the corner when he purchased that lot. I don’t want it to be opened up to where
he can cram as many houses on that corner as he can, because I built there knowing there were rules and
covenants that I had to abide by in order to build there. So that is my big concern. What is this opening? So, it
would be nice to know when Holmes is widened, that .835 acres on the corner, does that shrink to 0.7? If it
does, that now changes what can be done there. Are there rules on where he can build a road. He was talking
about building an access road right along my fence line, right by my bedroom window on the right side of my
property to access more lots, smaller homes. I don’t want a drive for 5 homeowners that now have teenagers
driving and all that stuff driving right up and down by my bedroom window. I didn’t buy that lot and build
there for those kinds of things to happen. That is not a high-density area. What he mentioned earlier with the
last lot, it doesn’t fit. Those are my concerns. I think it should stay the way that it is. That is what it was when
he bought it.
Applicant: Glen Ogden, Ogden bought the property in June 2018 and annexed July 2018. It was bought as
County. The City bought the front 25’ along Holmes about 5 years ago, taking what was 1.25 to .862. The
acreage existing is what it is regardless of what Holmes will be. Before he bought the lot to the south in Cache
Estates, the City had already owned the 25’ right of way into that property to widen Holmes. The acreage is
1.062.
Ihler closed the public hearing.
Ihler stated that Holmes is an arterial so now they are dealing with Access Management rules and how spaced
can driveways be, and can the property be split because it’s on a major arterial. Ihler asked about the corner lot
because it is in an existing subdivision and what does the process look like to change the one to the south.
Long stated that the property has one access on Holmes if it redevelops it still has access, but it would be
shared access, and no additional access points would be given. The bottom property shouldn’t be considered as
the property can develop as RP today.
Audience asked to speak. Ihler explained how the public hearing goes with the applicant being allowed a
rebuttal. If they wanted to reopen the public hearing, then the audience could speak again.
Ihler asked in general Subdivision Ordinance if there is an existing subdivision that lot is the lot. Long stated
that the lot can be replatted. Long stated that the covenants are private agreements and not part of the
discussion the City has, they do not interfere, and the zoning code is the zoning code.
Meehan stated that they are looking at one piece of property and not the one to the south, any questions about
the siding or development are immaterial to the property in question.
Harger asked if the surrounding is RP and the neighbors are zoned RP. Ihler stated that everything around the
property that is not county is RP. Harger asked if the other property owners could potentially do similar
density as the applicant and everyone has the same rights with the zone change. The difference is that this
parcel is not part of the surrounding subdivision and not constrained. Ihler agreed that it is not part of the
existing subdivision.
Storer stated that there is a lot of what ifs and it is only a zone change, this is not a replat, or the property to the
south. They can deal with that when it comes. It is a simple zone change. They are trying to anticipate too
many things.
Harger asked when considering a request for a zone change is a bonus value to the property and the biggest
change from RE to RP is the maximum density and the minimum lot size. Harger asked about the legal
grounds to say we are not restricting rights, and how do you measure that against the impact to the surrounding
neighborhood.
Meehan stated that page 2 of the packet in Table called Criteria for Rezoning 11-6-51 and that is the criteria
that is to be evaluated. Harger stated that the criteria is the benchmark. Meehan stated that this is a judgment
call, and they are only recommending it.
Ihler thinks they should reopen the public hearing. Meehan stated that he has heard nothing to make him want
to reopen the public hearing. Other commissioners were ok with it.
Ihler re-opened the public hearing.
Scott Ferguson 445 Castlerock, Idaho Falls, Idaho. Take the corner lot out because that is what everyone is
wanting to do. If we allow the change of zoning, it now allows according to law, 4 lots, he could subdivide that
into 4 lots quarter acre lots within the 1 acre. That would not fit with anything in that whole entire area. There
is not a lot smaller than half an acre. You know what I mean, so kind of going with what he had mentioned
with the previous one on Skyline, how it is R1 to R3, and that doesn’t fit we cannot do that. ¼ acre lots do not
fit, so we aren’t even talking the corner lot. If you rezone that, he could potentially put up to 4 homes on ¼
acre lots right there, which doesn’t match anything in the area. So that is where my, so let’s throw that corner
lot out. The one lot opens up to is that, and that doesn’t match the demographics of where we live. So that is
our big concern is when you start, you know we have town homes on the other side of Taylorview Junior High,
that is the high density over there. That is its own topic, but to add it right there on that one lot would not make
sense. Once again it is Pandora’s Box and what does it do to everything else around it. The guy across the
street now subdivides his 4-acre lot. It is just a big Pandora Box. That one lot, if he is not planning on building
multi homes on that lot, why does he need the change, if he is just planning on rebuilding his home on that lot,
then it can still be a single-family lot, still built the exact same way. If it stays that way he can build a new
home on it and tear down his old one, because it is a, the way it is zoned right now, he can only have one home
on it correct? Meehan stated that this is not a Q&A and I cannot give a response. Ihler stated that they will try
to address it after the public hearing. Ok, so that is the biggest concern is throw 4 houses on that one lot. It
doesn’t match the demographics of that one lot. It sucks because you move up in life and your dream is to
build into a nicer neighborhood and to have that one lot change, changes the demographics of where you live.
Mike Bailey 440 Coven Creek Court, Idaho Falls, Idaho. I know you said no Q&A, but in your discussion,
I might add the 12,000 square foot minimums, puts it at 3.8 but the 4th home is not allowed. I guess? I went to
school in Firth, so my math might be wrong. So I mean worse case is 3 and that would take more, that would
take 48000 square feet, and I think an acre is 43560. I would like to say ok, what are we looking at worse case
scenario. I wish Glen and Mindy the best, I think he has a beautiful lot and they are good people. You could go
in there an probably, if you are looking for solutions, what about half acre lots. That kind of matches. There are
half acre lots in Canterbury. Castlerock Estates is a whole different ball game. Those are big big estates, but
gosh if you wanted to build a house and remodel the other one, or tear it down and build a second one, I don’t’
think you would get much push back from the neighbors. It is just that concern of worst-case scenario.
Applicant: Glenn Ogden. Ogden stated that the largest issue is 600 feet requirement between the intersection
of Castlerock and Holmes and an entrance to a subdivision. Ogden has 1 access from Holmes and that would
remain and any subdivision on the property would need to be fed by one egress and a shared driveway
situation would exist. Ogden stated that 3 homes possibly could share one driveway, 2 more than likely would
have to share one, but 4 could not share one driveway. A major street or road is not feasible and not allowed
by the City.
Ihler closed the public hearing.
Ihler stated that they need to consider lot coverage between RE and RP is 30% to 40% and even if they did
perfect math with 3 homes the coverage of each lot is low. Ihler stated that most other rezones or annexation is
someone trying to do a higher zone than the existing zones. This literally matches the same zones that are all
around. Ihler thinks the precedent of matching zones is clear and it is hard to say no when it is all the same
around it, and it is not conflicting. Ihler stated that it is constrained as is, even if it stays RE. RP is constrained
as well.
Harger stated that she is struggling because the surrounding zone is the same, but she is conservative when
someone is requesting a zone change, as that is seen as giving something to the property owner and if there is a
reason, and it is not warranted at this time, and unfair to compare to the covenants surrounding, but there is an
impact to the surrounding area by granting the zone change.
Scott stated that he is hung up on RP all around and the “what ifs” on this property, also apply to the other
properties and there is not a strong reason to not allow. This is potentially increasing the value of his property,
but there is not a reason to not allow the rezone.
Panter agrees with Harger and Scott. Panter stated that the surrounding property would have the same rights
and it is a challenge to now allow it because anyone else would be allowed to develop the same way. Panter
agrees and understands the impact to current residents.
Meehan stated that he is sympathetic to neighbors that have the neighborhood changing around them, and it is
not fair to say a proposal for RP zone is inappropriate land use when everything around is RP. If neighbors
have protective covenants that is an agreement with a private developer and not with Ogden. Meehan stated
that any of the RP lots around could build on 12000 square feet if they chose to subdivide.
Ihler thinks the surrounding area is all the same and if this gets split there will be a preliminary plat. Beutler
stated that there would not be a preliminary plat as there is not a street network.
Meehan moved to recommend to the Mayor and City Council approval of the rezone of 1.062 acres from
RE to RP, Scott seconded the motion. Ihler called for roll call vote: Scott, yes; Panter, yes; Ihler, yes;
Meehan, yes; Harger, no; Storer, yes. The motion passed 5-1.

NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING
July 29, 2026
Dear Property Owner or Resident,
Notice of Neighborhood Meeting
Rezoning Application — 4146 S Holmes Ave., Idaho Falls, ID 83404
Dear Neighbor,
This letter is to notify you of a neighborhood meeting regarding a rezoning application for our property
located at 4146 S Holmes Ave., Idaho Falls, ID 83404. The purpose of the meeting is to explain the
proposed zoning change, answer any questions you may have, and provide an opportunity for you to share
your comments before the application is reviewed by the City of Idaho Falls.
Background
When our property was annexed into the City of Idaho Falls, it was automatically assigned a Residential
Estate (RE) zoning designation. This is the standard zoning designation applied to properties annexed from
Bonneville County because it preserves existing animal rights.
The surrounding residential properties and nearby school properties within the City are currently zoned
Residential Park (RP). Our application requests that the zoning for our property be changed from
Residential Estate (RE) to Residential Park (RP) so that it is consistent with the zoning of the surrounding
properties.
Neighborhood Meeting
We welcome your participation and value your input as part of the City's review process.
Date: Wednesday, August 12, 2026
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Location: Front yard of the Ogden residence
4146 S Holmes Ave.
Idaho Falls, ID 83404
If you are unable to attend but would like to ask questions or provide comments, please contact:
Glen Ogden
Phone: (208) 201-0118

‘Changing from RE to RP does not allow for the building of apartments, duplexes,
townhouses, or commercial development. Both zones remain low-density residential. In
fact, in terms of types of uses, RP is somewhat more restrictive than RE.
Neighborhood Meeting held 8/1 2/2026 at the home of Glen Ogden
4146 S Holmes Ave
Idaho Falls ID 83404
Participants: Glen Ogden (Applicant), Mike Bailey (neighbor), Scott and Melissa Ferguson
(neighbors) . .
Zoning Change Proposal and Purpose
e The meeting focused on a proposal to rezone the subject property from RE
(Residential Estate) to RP (Residential Park).
e REcurrently allows agriculture (horses, cows, etc.), accessory dwelling units
(ADUs), and some business uses via conditional permits; RP is a more restrictive
designation that what is currently allowed on the property and permits only single-
family homes and accessory uses for sheds etc, but prohibits agriculture (except
city-allowed chickens) and ADUs.
e Surrounding properties are zoned RP and alignment with the neighborhood and a
desire to develop the property was discussed as the primary purpose of this
request.
Owner’s Intent, Constraints, and Timeline
e [Glen Ogden] owns two parcels totaling ~2 acres (1.15 and 0.85 acres both the
subject property and the neighboring property directly to the south of the subject)
and seeks RP zoning to explore subdivision and construction of new single-family
homes; the existing house would likely be after another home is built and as part of
the development of the properties.
e No definitive development plan has been created as there is no need to spend the
costs to develop a site prior to obtaining a new zone designation.
e The property owner has other financial obligations that will delay any development
for at least a year. If the rezone application is approved, [Glen Ogden] plans to
consult an Engineering firm sometime next year to begin the process of developing
a new plat for the property.
Community Concerns and Past Experiences
e Residents are concerned that approval of this rezoning could lead to small lots and
higher density that would alter neighborhood character, citing the Rockwell
development further down Castlerock Lane and a past conditional use permit
which was granted for a business in the RP Zone/Neighborhood as negative
precedents and sources of mistrust toward the city’s Planning and Zoning
Commission.
e There is skepticism that.the city may approve variances or higher density
despite neighborhood preferences.
¢ Lot Size, Density, and Development Concepts. RP minimum lot size is 12,000 sq ft,
theoretically allowing up to four homes per acre; residents oppose high density and
third-acre or smaller lots (~0.26 acres).
e Preferred outcomes include one or two large homes or multiple lots of at least
0.5-0.7 acres, consistent with nearby Canterbury Park neighborhood (average ~0.7
acres, some over an acre).
e Asno development plan has been initiated by the property owner, no commitments
were made regarding layout or lot sizes but neighbor concerns were noted and will
be considered when that Process begins.
Access, Egress, and Layout
e Access road placementis a major concern. [Melissa Ferguson] objected to an
access road adjacent to their fence due to privacy and traffic; a centrally located
entrance was preferred. It was clarified that this proposal is not a development
proposal but simply a re-zone application and decisions about egress, access and
easements would be part of the. property owner’s engineering and platting process.
Concerns were noted, however.
e City constraints were also noted by the property owner. Anew access on Holmes
may be difficult for more thar one home given a 600-foot spacing requirement ona
major arterial.
1
Other discussions.
e Two neighbors (Stewart Curtis and Martin Tingey) reached out to Glen Ogden
directly prior to the neighborhood meeting. Neither expressed concern about the
zoning change. .{t was noted by Mike Bailey (attendee at the neighborhood meeting)
that Mr. Tingey and he had talked previously, and Mr. Bailey felt like Mr. Tingey would
also be concerned about smaller lots ora private lane that would run along the
north side of the subject property to provide access to the subdivided lots. Again, no
commitments were made but concerns were noted by the property owner.
The meeting lasted approximately one hour.
