Donna Jones, 4729 Ponderosa stated the development is not in compliance with rules for
the control of air pollution in Idaho. Mrs. Jones stated the developer told her that it is not
his issue because he has sold the property. Mrs. Jones stated that non - compliance with
site containment rules are prevalent in the City of Chubbuck.
Mrs. Jones presented the following proposal: That in the interest of the citizens and
property owners of Chubbuck and as a part of the permitting process the City should
adopt an ordinance or a rule that would require a "Site Containment Plan" from anyone
applying for a construction or building permit. This documented plan should be detailed,
and should include not only an intent to comply with site containment rules but also
demonstrate, "how, when and where and in what time frame" the applicant will succeed
in this compliance. It should also be a requirement that the "Containment Plan" list an
authorized agent (and contact information for that individual). It should not be incumbent
upon any Citizen or City or State Officials to track down the responsible person or
persons on a construction site when non - compliance is evident. Mrs. Jones also suggested
that the developer be required to present such a documented plan before he is allowed to
turn one more shovel of dirt.
Faye Jones, 4729 Ponderosa agreed with his wife about dust concerns.
Linda and Tom Vanderford, 4711 Ponderosa stated they have the same concerns and
solutions as Donna and Faye Jones.
