Discuss Kamiah City Pool Update- Colt Downing: The good news is the sand filter will be delivered to Lewiston this week. We are still waiting for a back ordered part to arrive that will automatically clean the system. Colt has been doing some research and realizes the automatic system my not be that great and he has our engineers reviewing a change order to go from an automatic system to a manual system. This will be a $9,000 savings and is believed to be a better alternative to get the pool opened. Colt would like to have one more volunteer day where the City of Kamiah can come in and help put the final touches on the pool. The date will be announced at a later date.
Discuss / Approve Pavement Repairs on Idaho Street between 4th & 5th: We received an estimate from Valley Paving & Asphalt in the amount of $27,266.40. After reviewing the estimate, we have decided to table this until our special meeting on September 7th. We want to make sure the quote has a cap, it seems a little open ended, we don’t spend more that the estimate.
Judicial Bond Hearing to discuss the Bryan Drive Booster Station was on August 24th, we must wait 2 weeks before we can take action on this topic. We will table this until we have our special meeting on September 7th to further discuss and approve or deny the Judicial Bond for the Bryan Drive Booster Station.
Variance Hearing @ 912 Main Street was on August 24 @ 5PM. There were not any complaints from the neighbors regarding the variance to add a garage on an existing slab that will not meet the required city setbacks. All parties involved agree that this will add to the neighborhood and not be a hinderance. Motion to approve the variance and building permit was made by Council Member James Kelly and seconded by Council President Genese Simler. Roll Call Vote: Genese Simler aye, James Kelly aye, Scott Moffett aye, Kaylee Hunt aye.
Discuss / Approve 15 Minute Parking in Front of Wells Fargo: The Mayor and Council agreed that if we approve a special timed parking in front of the bank, that this will open it up for everyone around town to want special parking for their businesses.
