3. Patriot Square TIF Application

has reviewed the application and it does meet CDA and City of Chubbuck criteria.
Matt Sutton was in attendance as one of the owners and to share their plan. The intent is to
make this a commercial business park to help increase the tax revenue for the City. The area
has been rezoned. 20,000 to 30,000 railroad ties have been hauled to the landfill or given away.
There was an environmental study done because of the creosol on the railroad ties and the
results were no issues found. Stuart suggested that the word get out that it is a safe area.

4. 2017 Construction Updates
Burch updated the board on the status of the projects listed below:
• NWSI Grant
• Allstate
• Industry Southside Way
• Stuart Addition Streets
• Country Acres
• Dark Fiber Lease
• Parks Capital Improvements
Bids were opened today for Country Acres Reconstruction. The budget thru CDA was 2.8
million, 1.8 million in fiscal year 2017 and 1 million in fiscal year 2018. The lowest bid is 4.4
million dollars. The project is being reevaluating. 40% increase because the economy is doing
well, contractors are busy and supply prices went up.
Many of the residents that have talked to the Mayor do not want sidewalks. The residents have
known from the beginning that this project is budget driven. Suggestion was made to inform
the residents of the Local Improvement District possibilities. Then the residents will know that
they had a choice and they make the decision if they want to do the work it will take.
Cotant Park will possibly have 2 more baseball fields constructed. More parking spaces will be
added.
