Quarterly Newsletter Volume 10, Issue 2
April 2025
Message from the Mayor:
Friends,
In the book of Proverbs, chapter 29, verse 18, it states, and I quote, "Where there is no vision, the people
parish..."
It is important for us to make and carry out plans. So, we may well ask, where should those plans come from?
Well, we elect and call upon many to lead us, and they certainly should work hard towards making things better for
all. But might I suggest that if plans are ever going to do the good we need it is going to take the absolute best
efforts of us all.
We have been working on an update for the City of Chubbuck's Comprehensive Plan. This encapsulates a vision
for the direction of our city and will in one way or another effect all of us. There will be an opportunity for you to
review and make comments about this plan. It will be on the Cities Website from about April 7 through April 22.
Make sure to visit the website and become a part of the vision for the future of this fabulous community that you
live in.
With that being said, those that are employed by the city, as well as those that serve on councils and
commissions, are working hard to establish a vision for Chubbuck. I want to commend each of these individuals
for their earnest efforts.
I recommend that we all do this for our own lives also. In finding your personal vision here are a few things to
consider. 1. Some visions are meant to be acted upon immediately. 2. Other visions are meant for the future.
3. Your vision is often waiting on you. 4. When you are given a vision, you have the power to make it happen.
Let us all work together, and independently, to make exciting things happen for this wonderful area we live in.
It is going to take our best to make it happen. Let's believe, the best is yet to come.
Sincerely,
Mayor Kevin England

As the warm weather approaches, we would like to remind our citizens that foot and bicycle traffic is
increasing and Motorcycle enthusiast are once again enjoying our roadways. Please follow all posted speed
limits, check your blind spots, and pay close attention to crosswalks.
Remember that the simple act of locking your doors (vehicles included), closing your garage, and securing
your property greatly reduces "crimes of opportunity." An old military adage comes to mind. "There is only
one thief in the world, everyone else is just trying to get their stuff back."
Don't forget the importance of property maintenance and help us keep the City of Chubbuck looking good by
taking pride in the appearance of your lawn and yard. When visiting one of our many parks, please avoid any
problems by ensuring your four -footed friends are on a leash and by cleaning up after them.
Most of all, make sure you have fun this summer and keep each other safe. Treating each other with kindness,
understanding and respect goes along way. As always, when an emergency arises, please call 9-1-1.
