TREMONTON CITY CORPORATION CITY COUNCIL MEETING June 5, 2012 CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP

Members Present: David Deakin Diana Doutre Lyle Holmgren Byron Wood Roger Fridal, Mayor Shawn Warnke, City Manager/Deputy Recorder TREMONTON CITY CORPORATION CITY COUNCIL MEETING June 5, 2012 CITY COUNCIL WORKSHOP Mayor Fridal called the 6:00 p.m., June 5, 2012 City Council Workshop to order at 6:00 p.m. The meeting was held in the City Council Meeting Room at 102 South Tremont Street, Tremonton, Utah. Those in attendance were Mayor Fridal, Councilmembers Deakin, Doutre, Holmgren, and Wood, City Manager/Deputy Recorder Shawn Warnke, Zoning Administrator Steve Bench, Recreation Director Marc Christensen (Arrived at 6:40 p.m.), Public Works Director Paul Fulgham, Police Chief David Nance, and Treasurer Sharri Oyler (arrived at 6:04 p.m.). Linsey Nessen from the Recorder s Office was also present. Councilmember Reese and Recorder Darlene S. Hess were excused 1. Review of agenda items on the 7:00 p.m. Council Meeting: The Council reviewed the June 5, 2012 Agenda with the following items being discussed in more detail: Resolution No. 12-27 - Splash Pad and restrooms at Shuman Park - Councilmember Deakin asked how the Library Board feels about the splash pad. Councilmember Doutre responded that there were comments at the Library Board Meeting that the splash pad is proposed to be placed where they wanted the new Library, but they will be fine with it. They are really happy to have an outside bathroom because people are now coming inside to use the Library s facilities. Councilmember Holmgren commented that he was working on the Library grounds one evening at about 9:00 p.m. and someone knocked on the Library door to use the restroom. He continued knocking until the cleaning person gave up and let him inside. Councilmember Wood informed the Council that the Golf Course personnel are complaining because kids are going in their restrooms and lighting the toilet paper on fire. Outdoor restrooms can be a problem: more maintenance and more to look after. The Golf Course leases the property from the City and the restrooms were built by the Golf Course. They don t mind the kids using them, but don t want their property damaged. 1

Councilmember Deakin asked if doing the accounting for the splash pad will put any burden on City employees or create any problems in the future. The City has never done that in the past. Councilmember Holmgren stated that the City (the Recorder s Office) took care of the accounting for the Veteran s Memorial and said he would rather the City have more control over it. Councilmember Wood asked if anyone read the Ogden Standard s article on splash pads. The Cities interviewed reported that they are a pretty good expense just to maintain every year. The cities built the splash pads because they were less expensive than building swimming pools. Most of the cities were happy with them, but it is an expense. Director Fulgham stated that the splash pad they looked at is low maintenance. All the water is flow-through, and there is nothing above ground except the fixture which holds the button to turn it off and on. It may not be as fun as some of those with arms that spray, but there is less to vandalize and less maintenance involved. Councilmember Deakin asked Manager Warnke if he was concerned about the City doing the accounting for this project. He said that he was not concerned. Councilmember Doutre said that she spoke with the Mayor of Brigham about their pool, asking if they have to subsidize the pool, and was told that they don t. The City can t afford a pool, but if the splash pad gets used, it will be good for the City even if it has to be subsidized. Councilmember Holmgren asked what percent of the cost the City will want the sponsor s of the splash pad to come up with. Does the Council expect them to raise all the funds? It was agreed that the expectation is that the group would raise all of the cost of the splash pad but the City may contribute funds for the restroom and donate the land. Councilmember Wood suggested that the City seek volunteer help from some of the City s builders to bring down the cost of the restrooms. Director Fulgham explained that the restrooms which were built at North Park and South Park were built twenty years ago. They weren t Cadillac, and they cost $40,000 a piece. The big cost was the stainless steel fixtures which were used so that they can t get broken. Councilmember Wood added that Bothwell built restrooms using a lot of donated help and it really cut down on the expense. Mayor Fridal commented that when Justin Ellingford came to the Council to talk about the splash pad, he suggested that the Women s Civic League may be willing to contribute to the restrooms. Councilmember Deakin stated that the Council doesn t need to worry about the restrooms right now. Now the splash pad is just talk, but if this group is able to raise the $60K or $70K it will take to build the splash pad, then it is no longer talk and the Council will know that people are really supporting it. Director Fulgham commented that the City donated money to finish the Skate Park. More of the kids in town will be involved in the splash pad. Councilmember Deakin 2

asked Director Fulgham how he feels about this new project. Director Fulgham said that at first he was hesitant, but then he got to thinking that he will have grandkids soon. They may not want to play ball, but the City builds ball fields for them. After visiting the splash pad at Providence City, Director Fulgham said he was even more in favor of the project because he saw that it will be fairly low maintenance, and Providence City is seeing a lot of turn out for their splash pad. Also, the City has needed bathrooms at Schuman Park for a long time. Events have been moved out of that park because there weren t restroom facilities. Councilmember Doutre suggested that the fence at the playground be left up to keep the sand away from the splash pad. Director Fulgham s opinion was that another fence could be put in, but the existing fence should come down because it is chain link and has rough edges. The sand should not be a problem. Director Fulgham recommended that the design of the splash pad include a sand trap before the water enters the City drain. Resolution No. 12-28 2012-2013 Budget Manager Warnke stated that the proposed changes are included in the write-up provided to the Council. Most of the changes are fairly minor with the exception of the addition of the request for a Police vehicle. The proposal is that it would come out of the new Equipment Vehicle Capital Projects Fund (Fund 41). That would require the Council to transfer at least $30,000 into that Fund. The Court is trying to become more automated. Some of the changes they are doing are mandated by the State. One of the things they would like to do is to have a printer in the Court Room so that once a fine is assessed, the defendant can pay the fine right in the Court Room and be issued a receipt. A computer is available so that the CHORUS Database can be accessed and information can be input that the fine has been paid. The Court also does video arraignments while the defendant is in County Jail. It is less expensive than bringing the defendant to Tremonton. The Court would like to have a large screen TV for video conferencing. This is not included in the budget. Councilmember Doutre said that Garland has a large screen TV that can be turned to the Council or to the audience and show all types of information. Mayor Fridal commented that it would be perfect for the splash pad presentation this evening. Administrator Bench suggested having two: one directed to the Council and the other to the audience. Councilmember Holmgren asked if the $226,000 from Malt-O-Meal is an on-going income that the Council can count on for a while. Manager Warnke replied that the County is in the process of calculating the certified tax rate. That is the rate that is needed to deliver the same amount of revenue as was received the previous year plus new growth. Hopefully, by June 19 th, the Staff will know if the $226,000 is a good projected number. It should be. The wild card is the personal property because it varies so much from year-to-year with Malt-O-Meal s depreciation schedules. That said, the City should be able to count on the $226,000 (which is new growth) each year going forward. Minutes May 1, 2012 and May 15, 2012 Mayor Fridal questioned the water use on the splash pad. The May 1 st minutes, Agenda Item 6b, top paragraph of page 9 reads.. 3

a free flowing pad uses about 25,000 (not 25,000) gallons of water per day... It should read 2,500 gallons of water per day. Director Fulgham said that it would be 2,500 gallons per day if the water ran 24 hours. Councilmember Holmgren clarified that the City was originally quoted 25,000 gallons per day then it was corrected to 2,500 gallons of water per day. The May 1, 2012 minutes will need to be corrected. Resolution No. 12-29 Professional Services Agreement with Davis County Constable Manager Warnke stated that Chief Nance has a good relationship with the Davis County Constable, Mark Sessions. Constable Sessions seems enthusiastic and feels that he can really help issue and take care of some of the outstanding warrants. There is not much risk to the City. The cost to the City will be $55 if they serve the papers. Warrants are only issued if the fine is $500 or more. Appointment of Micah Capener to the Planning Commission Councilmember Deakin said that the Planning Commission discussed who they would like to serve in the unfilled Planning Commission position, and they presented was Mr. Capener s name. Any possible conflicts will be monitored. Currently, there is very little business representation on the Planning Commission. This is one perspective Mr. Capener will bring to the Commission. 2. Discussion on expanding Tremonton City s secondary water system. Councilmember Holmgren commented that, though this has been discussed in the past, the process that the City is going through with the new well indicates that it is going to be more difficult as time goes on to drill another well as the City needs more water. Perhaps Tremonton has come to the time when the Council needs to be looking at ways to cost effectively start using secondary water out of the canal system so it won t be necessary to use so much culinary water for irrigation purposes, etc. Director Fulgham, City Engineer Chris Breinholt, and Councilmember Holmgren had a meeting with Dan Davidson at the Canal Company. Mr. Davidson is really interested in trying to push the secondary water concept along. There could be a problem in that Mr. Davidson is leaving this area, so there will be a new manager of the canal system. Mr. Davidson was very much in favor of the secondary water system to the point that he even considered the possibility of having the canal company manage the system. Director Fulgham said that he really doesn t want another system. The City can t afford a secondary water system. But, at the same time, the City can t afford not to do a secondary water system. Director Fulgham displayed a map of Tremonton and stated that the hillside is going to develop. The City recently purchased a well and everyone, including the geologist and the City Engineer, felt there would be no problem getting water rights. As it turns out, the Division of Water Rights is scared of the Duck Club. The Duck Club wants any excess water and they want a claim to any water used upstream of them because they have priority water rights to almost everyone, except the canal company. So, they get everything that is not used. They actually get it from the Bear River and the Malad River. The more they can keep people upstream from using, the more they get to use for the development of more wetlands. When Tremonton filed for 4

water rights on the new well, the Duck Club protested. They said that Tremonton s application was the first one they had protested, and from then on they would be protesting every right that is upstream from their drainage. Tremonton has been in discussion with the Duck Club because the State Engineer told Tremonton to work it out with the Duck Club, but the Duck Club has left the City hanging with no response for three months. They keep saying they will let the City know, but the impression Director Fulgham gets is that for every gallon the City uses out of that well, the Duck Club wants the City to give them 45% back from the canal system. They want the City to surrender water shares to them to insure that that happens. The Duck Club engineers and legal staff can t make any decisions without the Duck Club President approving it. Now Water Resources is coming in with the USGS (U.S. Geological Survey) and doing a three year ground water study that started in April. In the meantime, the State is not issuing any water rights unless it is a home owner, single use. So, Tremonton is hung up for three years unless the City makes a deal with the Duck Club. Sources have told Director Fulgham not to make a deal but wait to see what the solution is going to be. If it goes the Duck Club s way, it will mean that all the water in the Box Elder Drainage is allocated out and to get any new water will require sharing taking canal shares and turning them over to priority owners. Tremonton allowed the Canal Company to manage the City s excess shares, leasing them out to people and then paying the City for the use. As a result, if the Duck Club doesn t get the excess water shares, Salt Lake will probably take any excess water in the future. Director Fulgham stated that a secondary water system would cost the City anywhere from $4M to $7M depending on the size of the system. If Tremonton can t get new water rights for wells, the City has to do something else: either buy water shares to turn over to the Canal Company or utilize land as it comes out of production and turn it into a secondary system. To build a 700 GPM (gallon per minute) culinary development with storage would cost about $1.3M. The same amount for secondary water would cost about $350K to develop. A one million gallon tank would still be needed, but an open reservoir would be used. The water would only need to be filtered. Councilmember Wood asked how often the secondary water pumps were burning out. Director Fulgham responded that about one per year needs to be replaced to the tune of about $3,000. It cost less to produce secondary water than culinary water. That means that, if the City does have secondary water, the high quality culinary water could go a lot further. Mayor Fridal asked if the secondary water would just be put on new developments. Director Fulgham replied that the core of the secondary water would go to new subdivisions. It is too expensive to put secondary water in developed areas because there is too much infrastructure in the ground. The City already has a location for an open reservoir on the City s west hill site. Councilmember Deakin asked if the source of the secondary water would be the canal and if the water would have to be pumped up the hill. Directory Fulgham confirmed that 5

that is correct. Pumping the water up the hill would be a big part of the cost. The plans allow for about nine million acre feet of water. It would likely be a three million gallon open reservoir. A pressure reducing valve would be used as the water flows down hill into the City areas. Currently, the City only has secondary water in River Valley and Spring Acres subdivisions. Secondary water is also utilized at Jeanie Stevens Park and the Alice C. Harris School. North Park, the Cemetery, South Park, and the South LDS Stake Center are water out of the Tremonton/Garland Drainage District drain system. There are currently sixty-five to seventy people on the secondary water system. A few more users are added each year. The users pay $14.10 per month for unlimited use between May and the end of October. The City waits for a week after the water has been put into the canal before turning on the secondary water pumps because the water is really dirty at first. Director Fulgham stated that Garland is in the same boat Tremonton is regarding water. If the Canal Company were willing to manage the secondary water system, they could do it for both Tremonton and Garland. It depends on how the new Manager feels about this. Councilmember Holmgren said that he feels secondary water is something the Council needs to seriously look at. If not, thirty or forty years down the road people are going to say, Why didn t they do that while they had the chance? Mayor Fridal agreed that this is something the City needs to consider. The meeting adjourned at 6:57 p.m. by consensus of the Council. CITY COUNCIL MEETING Mayor Fridal called the June 5, 2012 City Council Meeting to order at 7:03 p.m. The meeting was held in the Tremonton City Council Meeting Room at 102 South Tremont Street, Tremonton, Utah.

Linsey Nessen from the Recorder s Office was also present. Councilmember Reese and Recorder Darlene S. Hess were excused. 1. Opening Ceremony. Mayor Fridal informed the audience that he had received no written or oral request to participate in the Opening Ceremony. He asked anyone who may be offended by listening to a prayer to step out into the lobby for this portion of the meeting. The prayer was offered by Linsey Nessen and the Pledge of Allegiance was led by Public Works Director Paul Fulgham. 2. Introduction of guests. Mayor Fridal welcomed Constable Mark Sessions and all others who were in attendance. 3. Discussion and approval of agenda. 6

Mayor Fridal asked if there were any changes to the agenda. There were no comments. Motion by Councilmember Wood to approve the June 5, 2012 agenda. Motion seconded by Councilmember Deakin. Vote: Councilmember Deakin - aye, Councilmember Doutre - aye, Councilmember Holmgren - aye, and Councilmember Wood - aye. Motion approved. 4. Approval of minutes May 1, 2012 and May 15, 2012. Mayor Fridal asked if there were any changes or corrections to the minutes. Motion by Councilmember Holmgren to approve the minutes of the May 1, 2012 minutes with the correction from 25,000 gallons for the splash pad to 2,500 gallons. Motion seconded by Councilmember Doutre. Vote: Councilmember Deakin aye, Councilmember Doutre - aye, Councilmember Holmgren - aye, and Councilmember Wood - aye. Motion approved. The May 15, 2012 minutes were not approved in the City Council meeting. They will be considered at the next meeting. 5. Public Hearings Mayor Fridal called a Public Hearing to order at 7:07 p.m. to consider the concept of developing a splash pad on City. There were thirty people in attendance. a. To take public comment regarding the concept of developing a splash pad on City property located on the southeast corner of Shuman Park (near the intersection of 200 North and 100 East). Justin Ellingford commented that there is strong support for a splash pad in Tremonton. A member of the audience asked how much the splash pad would cost. Mayor Fridal asked Director Fulgham to respond. Director Fulgham stated that the City doesn t have anything official at this point, but based upon what Providence City paid for their pad, if Tremonton builds a like system it will roughly cost between $60K and $70K not including the cost of the restroom facility. Mr. Ellingford said that the only other comment he would have is that he and Manager Warnke have discussed how they will go about collecting donations. Manager Warnke stated that that will be discussed during the consideration of the Resolution supporting the concept plan. Sue Gardner stated that she has lived in Tremonton for the last twenty years and they are always looking for something new to do with their kids. She feels this would be a worthwhile project. If children are not involved in sports, this would be something to do. She said she would be willing to help raise funds or do whatever is needed to help support this project. 7

Stuart Hill said that he lives in Tremonton and has small children. They lived in Cache Valley for a long time and used their splash pad. It is a fun activity that provides good entertainment and an outlet for kids. He feels it boosts and cleans up the community. As he looks at Shuman Park, he can see room for improvement. This would be a good outlet for that. Speaking for himself, he has young kids, it is definitely worthwhile and with what the community would get back from it, it is a small cost. He is definitely in favor of the splash pad and will definitely donate some of his money to the cause. Kathy Fuhriman said she also lives in Tremonton and that she supports the splash pad. We are always talking about keeping money in the City. One of the comments that were made in the Standard Examiner article that was circulating this week was about a Tremonton family who had gone to the Harrisville splash pad to play for the day. Obviously if they are in Harrisville, they are spending money out of town. Not everyone is involved in sports, so families are in need of something else to do. If there is another activity for kids to do in Tremonton, perhaps they will stay in town and purchase treats, or something on the way out rather than spending their money in Harrisville or Providence or somewhere else. Laureen Fox said that she lives in Tremonton and she is for the splash pad, not just for the kids. It is for grownups, too, she hopes. She plans on being there. Mayor Fridal closed the Public Hearing at 7:13 p.m. Mayor Fridal called a Public Hearing to order at 7:13 p.m. to consider amending the Budget. There were thirty people in attendance. b. To consider adopting the budget entitled "The Tremonton City Annual Implementation Budget 2012-2013 (General Fund, Capital Fund(s), Enterprise Fund(s) and Special Fund(s), for the period commencing July 1, 2012 and ending June 30, 2013 Manager Warnke, in response to Ms. Fox s request, stated that this is just an annual process that the City goes through. As a budget would suggest, the Staff estimates the City s revenues and expenses. As a City, the revenues must meet the City s expenses. There can be no deficit spending. There is no change in the services delivered to the citizens. The Council and Staff are pretty conservative on estimates of revenue, and expenses are over-estimated so that there will be a positive result at the end of the year. The Budget is amended several times as the year proceeds. The fiscal year will begin July 1 st and end June 30 th. Mayor Fridal closed the Public Hearing at 7:15 p.m. Mayor Fridal called a Public Hearing to order at 7:15 p.m. to take comment regarding a vacating of property. There were thirty people in attendance c. To take public comment regarding the vacating of a portion of 110 South Street as part of the Clover Field Subdivision, Phase 2 Paul Hunsaker said that he lives in Tremonton on the street in question. He asked for a definition of portion. He asked if it was the entire street in front of 8

his and Gary Bell s house. Mr. Hunsaker was informed that his street is 900 West. That will be discussed on the next Agenda Item. Mayor Fridal closed the Public Hearing at 7:16 p.m. Mayor Fridal called a Public Hearing to order at 7:16 p.m. to take comment regarding a vacating of property. There were thirty people in attendance d. To take public comment regarding the vacating of [all of] 900 West Street, from 225 South to the dirt,] as part of the Clover Field Subdivision, Phase 1 Mr. Hunsaker again asked the Council to define portion. Zoning Administrator Steve Bench stated that this agenda item should have said vacating all of 900 West, including in front of Mr. Hunsaker and Mr. Bell s houses. Mr. Hunsaker asked what the procedure is to reclaim the asphalt in front of their houses. Director Fulgham stated that since the road will be vacated, Mr. Hunsaker and Mr. Bell will each receive half of the property and they will become the property owners. As such, if the future property owner or developer has to dig up the street, Mr. Hunsaker and Mr. Bell can require them to restore the asphalt to the like condition or better condition than they found it. Mr. Hunsaker asked if it will have to meet the specifications as they are now. Director Fulgham stated that it will be their property and as such they can require that of them. Mr. Hunsaker stated that he doesn t want the future owner or developer to come in and dig up a strip of the road and band-aid it and leave a scar. Director Fulgham stated that as the property owner they can require the future owner or developer to do whatever needs to be done to fix it. Mr. Hunsaker asked if there would be a contract between himself and the future owner or developer. Director Fulgham stated that the future owner or developer would have to get an easement from Mr. Hunsaker or Mr. Bell in order to go through their property. Councilmember Deakin asked Mr. Hunsaker if he is in favor of the vacation. Mr. Hunsaker stated that he is absolutely in favor of the vacation. City Manager Warnke clarified that in State statute it states that if the City vacates the property and it has been less than fifteen years since it was dedicated to the City, it would go back to the individual who originally dedicated the property. It is anticipated that the developer is potentially working out a deal to pass the property on to the adjoining property owners ( Mr. Hunsaker and Mr. Bell). Mr. Bell asked if it will increase their property tax. Councilmember Deakin stated that it likely would. Mayor Fridal closed the Public Hearing at 7:21 p.m. 6. Presentation a. Plaque presented to Paul Fulgham, Tremonton City Public Works Director, for certification in the field of Water and Wastewater Utility Management Mayor Fridal stated that Director Fulgham is a well trained, experienced, and qualified individual and the Rural Water Association of Utah informed him that Director Fulgham has completed training and certification in the field of water and wastewater utility management. The completion of this course shows that Director Fulgham continues to excel as a member of his profession, which is vital to Utah and our nation. 9

5. New Council Business. a. Discussion and consideration of adopting Resolution No. 12-27 supporting the concept plan of the development of a splash pad and restrooms at Shuman Park. City Manager Warnke stated that the Council would essentially, for a year period which can be extended after it expires, set aside land for the development of a splash pad and would also encourage the raising of funds for a splash pad. The City would participate in the accounting and administering of the funds. If the City takes the funds, the only caveat would be that if funds were not sufficient to build a splash pad the funds would be used for other recreational purposes. The splash pad meets several objectives of the general plan, so it is in line with some of the long term plans for the development of the City. Councilmember Deakin asked Mr. Ellingford if he is comfortable with the wording of the Resolution. Mr. Ellingford stated that he is. Councilmember Holmgren stated that the City is willing to set aside some land and give the group time to raise funds for the pad, and it will be evaluated on a year to year basis and time extended out if needed. Ms. Kathy Fuhriman asked how Providence City funded their splash pad. Director Fulgham stated that Providence City utilized money from the Cache County Recreation Tax, which Box Elder County does not currently have. Ms. Fuhriman asked if there are any funds such as that available for Tremonton City. Councilmember Holmgren stated that the Tourism Board has some grants they offer annually. Mr. Ellingford stated that those grants were awarded in February. The group has been looking at possible grants for disabilities and has found six that they would qualify for. Ms. Fuhriman stated that someone will need to start on the grant writing process in order to secure some of these funds. Ms. Fuhriman asked if the City has any funds available in the Recreation Fund. Councilmember Holmgren stated that the City is willing to put up the land and provide the water and ongoing maintenance. Councilmember Deakin read from the Resolution under Fundraising that reads The City Council encourages the citizen s group to undertake a fundraising effort to finance the splash pad and restrooms. The encouragement of the citizen s group fundraising is similar to other citizen based initiatives for park improvements such as the development of the Skate Park at Jeanie Stevens Park and the improvement of Midland Square. What the City is doing is providing a mechanism for people to provide some financing for the pad and the City will provide a piece of property. Mr. Ellingford stated that if the Resolution is approved, they will put together a committee for fundraising and also use the City s tax exempt status in order to speed things along on grant applications. Councilmember Deakin stated that the City will also provide technical support. Ms. Fuhriman stated that she would like to finalize where the funds will be coming from and if the City has any funds available in any of the Recreation organizations. Mayor Fridal stated that there are no City funds dedicated to the pad except for making it possible for it to happen. Councilmember Deakin stated that that s not saying it wouldn t be possible but that isn t what is being proposed today. The City is opening up an avenue for the raising of funds to see if there is support for the pad. 10

Mr. Ellingford asked where the estimated cost of $40,000 for restrooms is coming from and what the process would be for nailing down the design and bidding out the project. City Manager Warnke stated that on the Skate Park Project, a significant amount of money was raised and they used some of that money to go through the design phase. Director Fulgham stated that the estimate for the skate park was $180,000, but with some of the work done in kind it ended up costing $161,000. Once the plans were drawn up, funds started rolling in. Mr. Ellingford stated that he would like to have designs and figures for when people ask about the pad. Councilmember Deakin stated that when they have some funds, one of the first things they will do is come up with a design and the City will put it out for bid. Mayor Fridal stated that the group can come up with a plan for the splash pad but that the City will come up with the plan for the restrooms, which will be put out for bid and will be awarded to the lowest builder that can meet the City s specifications. Councilmember Wood asked if they could allow people to donate their labor. Director Fulgham stated that they could as long as they are bonded and insured. City Manager Warnke stated that the splash pad would be a City owned asset so it would be, at some point, managed by the City as far as the bidding process, the oversight, and the execution of the construction. Motion by Councilmember Deakin to approve Resolution 12-27 supporting the citizen s group in the concept of a splash pad. Motion seconded by Councilmember Doutre. Vote: Councilmember Deakin - aye, Councilmember Doutre, Councilmember Holmgren - aye, and Councilmember Wood - aye. Motion approved. b. Discussion and consideration of approving Resolution No. 12-28 adopting the budget entitled "The Tremonton City Annual Implementation Budget 2012-2013 (General Fund, Capital Fund(s), Enterprise Fund(s), and Special Funds), for the period commencing July 1, 2012 and ending June 30, 2013 Manager Warnke stated that the Council and Staff have spent quite a bit of time over the last 6 months preparing the Budget. One thing discussed during the Work Session that isn t included in the presented Budget is some upgrades for the Court as far as allowing them to do video arraignments. If the Council would like to consider those additions, it will need to be included in the Motion. The cost is expected to be between $2,500 and $3,000. Motion by Councilmember Holmgren to adopt Resolution No. 12-28 and the Budget entitled The Tremonton City Annual Implementation Budget 2012-2013 with the addition of the additional money for the Court. Councilmember Wood commented that City Manager Warnke and the Department Heads have put a lot of time and effort into this Budget and he feels it is a good once. Motion seconded by Councilmember Wood. Vote: Councilmember Deakin - aye, Councilmember Doutre, Councilmember Holmgren - aye, and Councilmember Wood - aye. Motion approved c. Discussion and consideration of adopting Resolution No. 12-29 approving a Professional Services Agreement with Davis County Constable for constable services 11

Manager Warnke said that Mark Sessions, who is the Davis County Constable, is present. He was invited to speak to the Contract and what he would do under that Contract. Constable Sessions stated that he has received the Agreement from Manager Warnke and that he does agree to service the Court, to go out and collect bail or bring individuals to Court that have not paid fines and have Warrants issued for their arrest. This would be done as it is being done now for other jurisdictions throughout the State as allowed by current State law. Constable Sessions said that he has been in law enforcement for thirty-four years, is part of a very professional group, and feels that they can do a great job for Tremonton City in serving these Warrants. Motion by Councilmember Wood to adopt Resolution No. 12-29. Motion seconded by Councilmember Doutre. Vote: Councilmember Deakin - aye, Councilmember Doutre - aye, Councilmember Holmgren - aye, and Councilmember Wood - aye. Motion approved. d. Discussion and consideration of appointing Micah Capener to serve on the Planning Commission 8. Comments: Micah Capener stated that he wants to participate and feels like he can try to give back a little bit to the community. He would be honored to serve on the Planning Commission. Councilmember Holmgren stated that he has known Micah since he was in 4-H. He has watched him grow up and has watched him in his professional life. He feels he will service the Planning Commission very well and said he fully supports this appointment. Motion by Councilmember Holmgren to appoint Micah Capener to serve on the Tremonton City Planning Commission. Motion seconded by Councilmember Deakin. Vote: Councilmember Deakin - aye, Councilmember Doutre - aye, Councilmember Holmgren - aye, and Councilmember Wood - aye. Motion approved. a. Administration/City Manager Advice and Consent. There were no Advice and Consent items. b. Council Reports: Councilmember Holmgren advised the Council that he attended the Bear River Museum meeting and reported that they are making some great progress. Their 12

intentions are to have the grand opening of the Museum around Tremonton City Days in July. He expressed his thanks to the board members for their hard work. Councilmember Holmgren said that he planted a bunch of flowers on Midland Square and was sad to report that there was some vandalism. Someone came in and pulled out about two flats worth of the flowers. They have since been replaced. Councilmember Doutre commented on how wonderful the Cemetery looks. Our City looks really nice right now. She said that she went to five cemeteries on Memorial Day and Tremonton s was by far the most beautiful. She was very proud of it. The Library just had a kick-off for the Summer Reading Program. Councilmember Doutre stated that the City really has a great Library crew. Everything went very smoothly. Councilmember Doutre is serving on the Library Board, now, and there are some great people working there. Councilmember Wood commended Public Works Director Fulgham and his crew for how good they did on the Cemetery. It looked wonderful. All he has heard are good comments. Some bad news: there are citizens who are vandalizing out at the Golf Course. The restrooms are just off the Skate Park. He requested that everyone watch out for problems. If anyone sees people out at the Skate Park causing problems, find out who they are and call their parents. It is sad. The Golf Course built those facilities, and they are very nice. They allow those from the Skate Board to use them, but they are threatening to shut them down if people don t take care of them. Councilmember Deakin concurred that the Cemetery looked great. Every year it does. He told Mr. Capener that he looks forward to working with him on the Planning Commission. Mayor Fridal commented that his mother likes to visit the Cemetery because everyone she knows is there. He takes her for a ride through the Cemetery six to seven days a week, and the Cemetery is outstanding. Councilmember Holmgren added that the Memorial Day Program was wonderful and commended Recreation Director Marc Christensen and his Staff for putting it together. He felt that it was one of the better ones he has attended. Mayor Fridal agreed and said that it was outstanding. Councilmember Doutre stated that she was out to the park for a game last night and told Director Christensen that the Recreation Program is really run well. 13
