be getting around the purchase of a liquor license by having
other businesses with liquor license cater events at the
Days Inn. Chief of Police Rowland suggested no more catering
permits be issued for events at the Days Inn, unless the
application is in and presented at a City Council Meeting.

RESOLUTION $2-93 - Agreement for Federal-Aid Highway Project $STP-
7041(101) Chubbuck Road and Yellowstone Ave. to Hiline Rd.
PWD Smart presented a state local agreement for preliminary
engineering for the project. The project was identified
through the local planning process and was given a high enough
priority that it was able to be placed on BPO transportation
improvement program. ITD also placed it on the State
transportation improvement program and programmed it for
preliminary development. The soonest it can be constructed is
1998.
57
RESOLUTION ~2-93 - (cont.) -
PWD Smart stated the City of Chubbuck will have to provide the
entire cost of preliminary engineering as well as the local
match for construction. Our local share will be 7.34~ or
169,000.00 plus preliminary engineering costs. PWD Smart
stated it is anticipated that these monies will come from the
WalHart tax increment financing scheme.
PWD Smart suggested Resolution ~2-93 be adopted and the City
enter into the State Local Agreement with ITD for the project.
The City of Chubbuck is required to pay $10,000.00 upon
execution of the agreement.
Councilman Wood moved to adopt Resolution ~2-93 as read.
Councilman England seconded. All council members present voted
in favor of motion.
RESOLUTION - Agreement for
7031(100). Intersection
Rd.
Federal-Aid Highway Project STP-
improvements at Siphon and Hawthorne
PWD Smart stated this project has been approved by the State
Transportation Board for construction in fiscal year 1995 at
an estimated cost of $180,000.00. This project was identified
through Bannock Planning's process and secured a high enough
rating to be placed on BPO transportation improvement program.
This project involves widening the intersection and
reconstructing the canal headgate to provide safer turning
movements. Bannock County is interested in participating with
US.
ITD does not want to work through two sponsors and has chosen
the City of Chubbuck to be the sponsor of the project.
PWD Smart suggested we are not ready to adopt the authorizing
resolution and enter into the agreement without completing our
negotiations with Bannock County. PWD Smart is working with
Terry Bally and Bill Aller at Bannock County. Once we get a
commitment from Bannock County and can enter into a joint
agreement on their participation in the project we can adopt
the resolution, then enter into agreement with ITD. PWD Smart
stated he will talk to Fort Hall Irrigation about the project.
RESOLUTION - 1-86 CHUBBUCK INTERCHANGE LANDSCAPING PROJECT -
Whereas, the Idaho Transportation Department, Division of
Highways, has submitted an Agreement stating obligations of
the State and City of Chubbuck for construction of
enhancements to the Chubbuck Interchange on Interstate 86.
59
RESOLUTION - (cont.) -
Council reviewed a copy of a draft of State local agreement
for the project. The project was approved by the State
Transportation Board in February at an estimated cost of
$380,000.00, The State is sharing the local match with the
City as long as the City does the design work. Expenses
associated with the design will be credited to our share of
the local match. The City's share of the local match will be
10 percent of the total project cost or $3,800.00. It is
anticipated that tax increment revenue from WalMart will be
applied toward this project.
PWD Smart stated since the Sate and City are cooperating in
the local share of the project the State will not require the
City to deposit any monies as payment to ITD for its costs
associated with preliminary engineering.
PWD Smart stated he will submit to the City Council, soon, a
final agreement form and resolution authorizing the City to
enter into the agreement.
