Minutes of the Regular Meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Village of Chubbuck
held in the Municipal building of the Village of Chubbuck on May 11~ 1965.
Present- Worsencroft, Ward, Underwood, Christensen and McDevitt.
Absent- Hillman~ excused for previous committment.
Called to order 8:00 P.M.
Minutes of the last regular and one recessed meeting read and approved.
Bills for month presented tc Board. Motion to approve payment of bills made by
Underwood, swconded by Christensen. All in favor. Financial report for month presented to Board.
Park- Board aopointed Worsencroft to take care of hiring a man to prepare soil
there so sprinkler system can be installed.
Quinn Road Water Line- Estimated cost of extending water line to Siebert place
is $~,500.00. Board all agreed that clerk should write letter to Tilmar Siebert
and suggest that he contact Pocatello and see if he can hook-on to their line as
it is just across the road from him.
State Hiway Dept.- Don Mecham of State Hiway Dept. was present and stated that
the Village should be paying for the Street lights at the Interchange of Hiway 15
and Yellowstone. McDevitt explained that as far as the Village is concerned the
construction is not completed as the road is not going any place yet. Board all
agreed that we need a meeting with the State H~way Dept. as there are many problems
to discuss, including the resurfacing of East Chubbuck Road.
Trailer House on Private Property- Nm. Gregan of Eawt Chubbuck Road asked if he
could put his Trailer House on his property and live in it while he either builds
or improves the property so he can sell it. Board explained that Ordinance # 5~ does
not allow for this, and if they made an exception for him, they would be obligated
to make exceptions for others.
Sewer- L.H.Ballif explained the preliminary survey. Letter explaining the
plans and cost estimates was read in full by McDevitt. Letter is attached herewith.
Blueprints on plans are on file .
Uniform Bogl~ing Code- It was explained that we can wogk with Pocatello on
inspections. We can make an arrangement with them and split the fees. This would
save the Village money as we would not have to hire a man for this job.
Fire Truck- Wo~sencroft read a letter from Pocatello, in which they expressed a
desire to wogk with us in fighting fires in their north end and our village. Board
all agreed that we should look into this and see if some arrangement can be worked
out, and if not, then see if we can work with the County.
Campbell Construction Co.- returned their check claiming we owe more than $~5.00.
Letter accompanying this returned check is contradictory so Board decided to just
hold the check till a satisEactory agreement is reached.
Mill Levy- Resolution setting the mill levy for 3965 read in full by Clerk.
Motion to a~opt the mill levy as read made by Underwood, seconded by Christensen.
Roll Call Vote for passage of Resolution aw follows: Ward-yes, Christensen-yes,
Underwood-yes, Worsencroft-yes. Copy is attached herewith.
Complaints- Residents are complaining that the Garbage Man is not putting the lids~
back on their cans. Clerk will talk to Parks about this. There are complaints that
Dogs at Dr. Haydene are barking and bothering the neighbors. Lessert will talk to
~ayden and remind him that he told the Board his building would be sound-proof, and
that this noise will have to stop.
Police Car- still not running right. Ward will check with Bogert and all agreed
that they should get us a new car.
McOmber Plat- for sub-division east of Burley ~rive and south of Chubbuck Road.
Board studied Plat and agreed that if McOmber puts in his own water line and makes
and grades all his roads 50 feet wide, and all roads are properly brought up to
grade they would approve the sub-division. They further stated that for that portion
of the new road that would be in line with Burley Drive, the Village would pay the
difference between $ inch and six inch cast iron pipe for the ma~n line.
Street repairs- to be discussed at a recessed meeting on Friday, May 3~, ~965, to
be held at Clerk's Office at 6:00 P:M.
Meeting recessed at 10:15 P.M. till May 1~, 1965_at 6:00

Re: S~anitary Sewer Study
Job No. 65-32
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to your request we have made a study of your Sanitary Sewer
requirements and we are pleased to_submit the following report for
your consideration.
It is apparant tha~ two possibilities of sewage disposal for the Village
of Chubbuck exist, (1) the connection to the Pocatello City sewer
system and (2) a disposal system owned by the Village of Chubbuck.
The topography of the Village of Chubbuck indicates that the naturaI.
drainage for a gravity sewer collection system would be toward the
East to the U.P.R.R. , then South to a connection with the Pocatello
sewer system..
~ln examinmtion of the Pocatello sewer system reveals that the nearest
pipe line to the Village of Chubbuck is on Quinn Road near the U.P.R.R.
right of way. This line is a 12 inch pipe line and delivers the sewage
to a pumping station near the overpass on the Quinn Road. The City of
Pocatello will not consider a connection at this point because the pipe
line thru the northern part of the city does not have the capacity for
the additional contribution from the Village of Chubbuck. This connect-
ion would also require a pumping station to be provided by the Village
of Chubbuck, which is not toedesirable.
The other possible connection to the Pocatello city sewer system is
located at the intersection of Kinghorn and Hawthorne Roads. This is
a 12 inch line and the City of Pocatello will not consider a connect-
ion at this point.
The City of Pocatello is agreeable however to a connection to their 42
inch intercepter line at the intersection of U.S. 30 No. and Batiste
Road. The logical location of a pipe line to this point is south
along Hawthorne Road to Quinn and then west on Quinn to the point of
connection. This line is shown on our Drawing Study No. 2.
The alternative is for the Village of Chubbuck to provide their own
disposal system. Two methods of disposal are available, (1) a Mechanical
Treatment plant (similar to the City of Pocatello plant) and (2) the
Stabilization Pond or lagoon type. An investigation of the Mechanical
Plant indicates a cost greater than is economically feasible for a
community the size of Chubbuck. The use of a Stabiliztion Pond system
seems to be dictated for your consideration. The layout for this method
together with the collection system is shown on our Drawing Study No. 1.
The following data is submitted in connection with this report:
2 copies of Drawing Study No. 1
2 copies of Drawing Study ¥o. 2
2 copies of Cost Estimate Study No.
2 copies of Cost E~timate Study No.
The figures in the cost estimate closley approximates what a contractor
will bid on a project of this type, however the contingency estimate of
six per cent may eventually be modified in proportion to the time elapsed
from the date of the estimate snd the date of actual construction of the
project.
The elevations established in this study are actual elevations above sea
level refer to U.S. Bench Mark L-6 located on the U~P.R.R. approximately
1400 feet south of Siphon Road. As indicated on the drawings the ground
elevations are given above the line and the pipe invert elevations are
given below the line, this was done in order to give the depth of the
required trench at these locations.
Elevations were determined and Bench Marks set generally at the street
intersections and at the upper end of proposed collection lines. These
Bench Marks are recorded and are available for use by the Village of
Chubbuck at any future time.
The pipe sizes used in the cost estimate are suggested sizes and are
subject to revision if and when an actual design is mad~e.
The stabilization pond quantities are an estimate based on our experience
with similar projects and are subject to revision.
The pumping station is designed for a population of 3000 people and a
pumping head of thirty feet. This unit is com~ete with alternate pumps
and controls contained in one steel housing and is installed under-
ground. (We have just completed the installation of two of these units
for the Lava Hot Springs Foundation which are furdcioning very Satisfact-
orily).
The cost of the pumping plant given in the cost estimate is firm as at
this date, but is subject to price changes ~n the future.
We have considered the use of an Areated Stabilization Pond and three
polishing ponds to produce an effluent with approximately 90% B.O.D.
reduction. This type of stabilization ponds was selected rather than
an un-areated pond because of the saving in land area. However mechanical
areators are required in the type we have selected, but the savings to be
made in land costs, pond construction, and quality of effluent we believe
will off-set the cost and operation of the areators. ~he cost of the
areators given in the cost estimate are firm as of this date, but subject
to price changes in the future.
The cost of the land given in the cost estimate is approximate and is
subject to revision.
~ study of the existing elevations dictate in general that the sewage be
collected at the east end of Highway Avenue and then handled in one of
the following methods:
I - Pumped into s stabilization pond.
II - Pumped to a higher elevation and ~rom there conveyed by gravity to
the point of disposal or treatment.
III - Conveyed by gravity to a connection with the City of Pocatello sewer
system.
STUDY NUMBER ONE(Refer to Drawing Study No. 1)
This study proposes to collect the sewage at the east end of Highway
avenue where a pumping station will be constructed to deliver the sewage
to an areated stabilization pond, then by gravity thru three polishing
ponds, from where the effluent of approximately 450 g.p.m, could be disposed
of in either of the following methods:
I - By pumping into the existing Fort Hall Drain. (This method would
require clearance from the Fort Hall Agency).
II - By diverting into adjacent irrigation dit6hes and used for irrigation.
(This method would require clearance from the land owners that would use
the water).
STUDY NUMBER TWO(Refer to Drawing Study No. 2)
This study proposes to collect the sewage(as in Study No. 1) at the east
end of Highway Avenue w~ere a pumping station will be constructed to pump
the sewage to the intersection of C~ubbuck Road and Hawthorne Road where
it will flow by gravity south on Hawthorne Road to Quinu Road~ west on
Quin~ Road to the Pocatello trunk line on U.S. 30 No., and t~en to the
Pocstello city sewage treat~i~ent plant.
The pressure line from the pumping station to the intersection of
Chubbuck and Hawthorne Roads will necessarily paralell the gravity
collection line from Hawthorne Road along ChuObuck Road to the U.P.R.R.
tracks. Altho tbs trench depths from the intersection of Cnuhbuck and
Hawthorne are not excessive~ several canal crossings will be required
and some rock excavation will be enccumtered, which will increase the
cost of the pipe line considerably. There will be a ¢onti~uimg service
charge by the City of Pocatello for processimg the sewage thru their
disposal plant. T~is charge has not been established and is not includ-
ed in the cost estimate.
