After a discussion on the hearings required on nuisance dogs before destroying, Councilman Fullmer reported the MUnicipal Improvements and Services Advisory board would be in agreement to review these cases. However, because of the delay required by having the MI & S Advisory board review and then council take action following, it was tentatively decided to have the council act as hearing board. FUTURE DEVELOPMENT - West of Hawthorne and North of Church Lateral. Fred Wilson told council he had been contacted by Roger Seaton in regards to buying some of his property for development of a subdivision. He stated his concern was that Mr. Seaton has said he needs more acreage so he can plan a street to go out on Siphon Road. However, Mr. Wilson said if he only sold the south 40 acres of his property there could be access out of the property. Mayor Cotant asked Mr. Wilson if Mr. Seaton needed all of his ground how would he feel about selling it. Mr. Wilson answered that he plans to keep half of his farm or the north 40 acres. LAND INVESTMENT INC. - Kent Parrish questioned the council as to their plans on the Parrishes request to develop property which lies east of Hiline Road and west of Hiline Canal. Councilman Romriell stated the city had received complaints about the property being developed for trailers and the city is also concerned about developing Hiline Road into a four lane street which might change the proper zoning for the area. Councilman Kinghorn read from the Local Land Use Planning Act in regards to definitions on variance and special use permits. The question of rezoning prior to adoption of a comprehensive plan was also discussed. It appears the city cannot rezone prior to adopting a comprehensive plan. Councilman Fullmer stated in light of a four lane street being developed on Hiline Road it would seem logical to zone the adjoining property commercial rather than allow trailer development at this time. Councilman Romriell said he thought the city should perhaps plan to hold some impact hearings on this proposed widening and development of Hiline Road. Mayor Cotant told Mr. Parrish the city was going to survey the property for recommendation of width and location of the future four lane road proposed on Hiline. The county may have jurisdiction on Hiline Road from Interstate 15-W north to the Briar Wood Mobile Home Park and if so they will be involved in this project also. PETITION FOR FORTY FOOT STREET - Dwight Romriell representing the dental clinic and property owners of Evan's Lane presented a petition to city requesting their desire for a forty foot Evans Lane Street. The petition also stated opposition to the proposed development of Mr. Dale Orth without the provision of an additional twenty feet to make Evans Lane a forty foot street. Mr. Romriell asked how they could get a 40 ft. width street. Mayor Cotant said maybe a Local Improvement District could be processed for the construction of a full width street. Councilman Romriell suggested city contact Attorney Burnett on a possible solution to widening of Evans Lane. Petition attached to these minutes. 127 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT GRANT - Mayor Cotant suggested the city propose and make application for a grant to drill a well in an area which lies north of Interstate 15-W and in a western portion of the city and also to install a water line from the intersection of Chubbuck Road and Hawthorne Road south to Quinn Road. Council agreed this would be a good project. CITY OFFICE AND STORAGE EXPANSION - Mayor Cotant and council discussed various ~ locations for future office and storage expansion including the present location. PAVING BETWEEN CURB, GUTTER AND SIDEWALK and presently paved road. Kent Parrish asked if city would pave between presently paved Hawthorne Road and curb, gutter and sidewalk along the Latter Day Saint Church property at the intersection of Hawthorne and Quinn Road. Mayor Cotant told Mr. Parrish he had informed the contractor the city could not do the paving. Mayor Cotant further explained to Mr. Parrish the city could not agree to pave random areas throughout the city. Mr. Parrish asked if city would pave the locations where their contractors dug on Quinn Road in search of sewer service line to the L. D. S. Church. Mayor and council felt they should be somewhat responsible for this repair and agreed for Engineer Alder to measure the square yards required for this repair and city will reimburse for this amount of paving.
