1
00:00:03,250 --> 00:00:18,190
All right. I'd like to welcome everyone out to our Global City Council meeting from Monday, July 27th, 2026. We will start with a roll call. Council Member Wood. Chair.

2
00:00:18,830 --> 00:00:26,870
That's member Brady, about some member Pauis, about some member Boyer, he's on Zoom.

3
00:00:27,530 --> 00:00:28,630
I'm here, can you hear me?

4
00:00:29,170 --> 00:00:29,690
Gotcha.

5
00:00:30,190 --> 00:00:30,470
Very good.

6
00:00:30,610 --> 00:00:30,850
Alrighty.

7
00:00:32,290 --> 00:00:34,790
And then Council Member Peterson.

8
00:00:35,690 --> 00:00:36,550
I am here.

9
00:00:36,810 --> 00:00:37,130
Right there.

10
00:00:37,470 --> 00:00:37,670
Perfect.

11
00:00:38,570 --> 00:00:38,870
Excellent.

12
00:00:39,530 --> 00:00:40,510
Okay, we've got everyone.

13
00:00:41,930 --> 00:00:43,590
We'll begin with a pledge of allegiance.

14
00:00:43,590 --> 00:00:46,650
So in stand if you're able, I

15
00:00:48,790 --> 00:01:02,170
pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which stands one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice grow.

16
00:01:02,170 --> 00:01:03,970
all right

17
00:01:06,820 --> 00:01:13,990
need right into our public comment period the public may address the

18
00:01:13,990 --> 00:01:18,170
mayor and council with any matter of visit city business not listed on the

19
00:01:18,170 --> 00:01:24,210
agenda or on pending application or have pending applications we have excellent

20
00:01:24,210 --> 00:01:31,400
come on up and state your name and address and I David Vernon 800 North 50 East in

21
00:01:32,070 --> 00:01:36,730
Colville and I know you guys probably feel like you only hear from the public when

22
00:01:36,730 --> 00:01:42,930
there's a complaint, but I have a complaint. So is ivory homes and their contract

23
00:01:42,930 --> 00:01:46,250
going to be required to do something about the road crossings up there in

24
00:01:46,250 --> 00:01:50,290
White'sville? Everywhere they dug across that road and did such a terrible job of

25
00:01:50,290 --> 00:01:54,330
putting it back. Have any of you driven up there and back on that mess?

26
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:57,840
We're talking

27
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,680
about the main road, right? I mean, White'sville road going through the ivory

28
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:06,680
development up there. So yes, how

29
00:02:08,830 --> 00:02:11,250
would you answer that? Yeah, yeah, they're

30
00:02:11,250 --> 00:02:17,790
I think they know it's settling and stuff and they've put more asphalt than a couple times

31
00:02:17,790 --> 00:02:23,730
that they're going to fix it right at some point or just keep doing these like half-assed

32
00:02:23,730 --> 00:02:24,390
patch drops.

33
00:02:25,170 --> 00:02:26,570
Well, I think they're supposed to fix it right.

34
00:02:28,110 --> 00:02:32,910
Because it's really bad the way they've left it and seems like it wasn't constructed properly

35
00:02:32,910 --> 00:02:34,670
in the first place, compacted properly.

36
00:02:35,230 --> 00:02:39,450
I don't know if the city does any inspection when this kind of work's been going on, but

37
00:02:39,450 --> 00:02:44,390
Yeah. Anyway, just my concern, the city will be left holding the bag for us, the section

38
00:02:44,390 --> 00:02:51,410
of road that we're talking about with the. Yeah, there's like three or four different spots

39
00:02:51,410 --> 00:02:56,930
there, and now I'm really good. So yeah, where they took the sewer line, I believe, across

40
00:02:56,930 --> 00:03:03,290
the. Right. And water and sewer. Yeah. And it's been terrible ever since they first got down

41
00:03:03,290 --> 00:03:09,410
and it hasn't gotten any better with age. So don't they don't they have a bond and

42
00:03:09,410 --> 00:03:12,870
place that, just for that purpose in case it does settle?

43
00:03:13,250 --> 00:03:18,030
There is, but as Brandon indicated there, the plan is, and it's not too far out, I'm not

44
00:03:18,030 --> 00:03:18,550
sure when.

45
00:03:19,870 --> 00:03:25,370
We have a meeting with Ivory in the morning, and I'll ask that question in the same concern.

46
00:03:26,390 --> 00:03:32,990
But at some point, before they can move any further with a temporary democracy, there has

47
00:03:32,990 --> 00:03:37,370
to be some road improvements down there, turning lanes, and so a whole section will be redone.

48
00:03:38,930 --> 00:03:40,730
finalized to the proper form.

49
00:03:41,270 --> 00:03:46,690
Anyway, every time I have to have a new ball joint put on a vehicle, I start looking

50
00:03:47,250 --> 00:03:49,030
at the condition of some of the roads around here.

51
00:03:49,530 --> 00:03:52,970
Like where they dug across Main Street down here by a traffic road,

52
00:03:53,190 --> 00:03:57,450
and it's been a lot of dip this deep for how many years now that's never been

53
00:03:57,450 --> 00:04:01,050
addressed. So anyway, I just want to make sure we don't have a continuing

54
00:04:01,050 --> 00:04:04,850
problem up there that just gets ignored and gets

55
00:04:04,850 --> 00:04:07,550
then the taxpayers get stuck foot in the build to fix it.

56
00:04:08,190 --> 00:04:14,930
I appreciate that, but that is actively on the project list and okay to find out how fast

57
00:04:14,930 --> 00:04:15,690
we can get that done.

58
00:04:16,010 --> 00:04:16,530
All right, thanks.

59
00:04:16,830 --> 00:04:20,290
We do appreciate you coming in and bringing it to our attentions, that's how we can find

60
00:04:20,290 --> 00:04:20,590
out.

61
00:04:24,260 --> 00:04:24,500
All right.

62
00:04:24,860 --> 00:04:25,180
Any others?

63
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:27,520
Yes.

64
00:04:33,550 --> 00:04:39,810
So, Wade and I are the Canutesons, Wade and Robin Canuteson, and we're here on behalf

65
00:04:39,810 --> 00:04:48,490
of Wi-Fi cow internet and we have an idea that we'd like to propose to

66
00:04:48,490 --> 00:04:54,270
COVID city. We've been kicking around this idea for a couple of years about putting

67
00:04:54,270 --> 00:05:10,360
in an electronic sign. We really have felt like the need is great and there

68
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:15,880
But what caused us to think about this was when we started taking our business up into

69
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:21,980
Evanston and they have a couple small signs but they are really small.

70
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:33,280
The graphics are not very good and I was working with the, what do we call that, a small

71
00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:40,820
business organization and they're charging people to put a small ad on there and then

72
00:05:40,820 --> 00:05:44,600
when you pull up in the intersection to see your ad, you can barely see it.

73
00:05:45,300 --> 00:05:52,180
So our thoughts were, you know, I remember a sandwich shop over here that got closed down

74
00:05:52,180 --> 00:05:59,420
because when you open a small business, you don't have any way to say we want to run

75
00:05:59,420 --> 00:06:09,200
a special for homecoming week or we want to do you know free ice cream cones for everybody

76
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:17,780
that comes in next Saturday or you know you don't have any way to do that. In fact I don't know

77
00:06:17,780 --> 00:06:27,640
what happened to the Summit County B but I advertised in that 14 years ago when we started our business

78
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:36,560
and I don't think anyone ever saw the ad. It is our feeling that it's greatly needed

79
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:44,860
in the North Summit area specific just to North Summit. Not to Park City or to

80
00:06:44,860 --> 00:06:52,620
Camus. It's not a county thing. It really I think would help all the small

81
00:06:52,620 --> 00:07:00,240
businesses, not to mention the obvious thing, which would be for the city, the county,

82
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,740
the school, and whatever services wanted to advertise.

83
00:07:06,220 --> 00:07:11,000
So what we were thinking about, I'll give you a brief rundown of what we've thought,

84
00:07:11,260 --> 00:07:14,200
and this is kind of high level.

85
00:07:14,380 --> 00:07:19,760
We don't have any fine details worked out, but after I run through this, feel free to ask

86
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:24,920
many questions and anything I can't answer will ask Wade because he's the

87
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:25,580
tenee.

88
00:07:27,660 --> 00:07:32,680
We thought we were thinking about location right at the top of the

89
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:40,500
tee. We don't know who owns the property. We don't know if there's city property

90
00:07:40,500 --> 00:07:45,360
there where we can put it but it seems to be best location for visibility and

91
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:51,660
And notifying everyone in a great place as you come into the city, you know, to see

92
00:07:51,660 --> 00:07:52,460
welcome to Colville.

93
00:07:55,100 --> 00:08:00,200
We, I did mention a little bit about the size that we were talking about, and we've

94
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,880
looked into the pricing of those sizes.

95
00:08:03,740 --> 00:08:10,960
If you are to purchase one pre-made, say you can get it on Amazon, can you not get everything

96
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:11,600
on Amazon?

97
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:23,940
on, you can purchase one on Amazon for, what did you say, weight 20k, 20 to 50k?

98
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:31,080
The ones on Amazon are just pre-built that are low quality graphics, but not only that

99
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:38,440
the maximum that they go a 64 inches wide by 30 something tall, but you really need something

100
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:39,260
bigger than that.

101
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:40,360
And higher quality.

102
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:47,880
so you can see it and read it and if we built our own we could do it for a fraction of that

103
00:08:48,580 --> 00:08:57,480
and we could run video on their like you know football games you know we could do some really

104
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:04,460
nice things on there and it would just be specific to our to our community you know like our own

105
00:09:04,460 --> 00:09:12,300
home football games or whatever. So the cost that we were thinking, we thought it would

106
00:09:12,300 --> 00:09:23,280
probably come out about $4,000 plus labor. What we thought we would do is partner with

107
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:32,460
with Colville City, we would provide the labor, if Colville City could provide, it would

108
00:09:32,460 --> 00:09:43,460
require the cement base, the materials, and then we would provide non-stop internet

109
00:09:44,500 --> 00:09:50,760
to the sign and manage the security and the ads.

110
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,480
Did I miss anything?

111
00:09:55,420 --> 00:09:57,900
Yeah, so there would also need to be a power meter.

112
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:03,960
And so we could come up with some of the component prices in that $4,000.

113
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,700
And what this is, it's kind of like a Lego system building.

114
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:13,720
I don't obviously know when they did a big screen for the rodeo.

115
00:10:14,020 --> 00:10:17,560
But their components, you put together to fit the size that you need.

116
00:10:18,020 --> 00:10:21,740
And that requires a certain amount of power to run.

117
00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:26,160
throughout the day when you're actually displaying.

118
00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:32,780
So the cost per day, we think it would be around $65 a month,

119
00:10:33,820 --> 00:10:36,100
which is not too bad.

120
00:10:37,020 --> 00:10:39,460
We also looked into some of the concerns.

121
00:10:39,460 --> 00:10:44,940
I don't know if this will become a concern, but we know that

122
00:10:44,940 --> 00:10:54,880
some at county has ordinances for light pollution.

123
00:10:56,100 --> 00:10:58,440
And so if we wanted to turn it down,

124
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,400
we would have total control of that.

125
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:05,980
As well as turn it off for eight hours at night,

126
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,780
we would have 100% control.

127
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,760
And as far as, you know, why have I counted our nets concerned,

128
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:26,140
We don't have any preferences that way, but as a small business, and as people that have lived that we've lived in this community for 30 years, good grief.

129
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:32,260
I look at Morgan's sign that they just put in. I don't know if you've seen it. It's beautiful.

130
00:11:33,500 --> 00:11:38,260
And they're able to run video on it. I think there's this four by eight.

131
00:11:38,260 --> 00:11:43,120
Oh, it's smaller than that, and this is actually a higher quality video than it might be.

132
00:11:44,870 --> 00:11:51,690
So, I think there's just like five, three by five or something like that, or even six

133
00:11:51,690 --> 00:11:52,550
by four.

134
00:11:52,710 --> 00:12:01,930
It's not quite as big as we, our harder desire is to put something in that people can actually

135
00:12:01,930 --> 00:12:08,190
see a high quality if you wanted to show a highlight of something or information for emergency

136
00:12:08,190 --> 00:12:11,090
see our reminder saying, oh, don't park on,

137
00:12:11,370 --> 00:12:13,650
don't park your car on dry plants.

138
00:12:13,950 --> 00:12:15,850
It's got things like that or the water savings.

139
00:12:16,290 --> 00:12:19,010
All that has the ability to do high quality.

140
00:12:20,090 --> 00:12:25,130
And that's why we're kind of pushing for this P4 quality.

141
00:12:26,570 --> 00:12:28,010
And yeah, there you go.

142
00:12:29,610 --> 00:12:32,170
OK, do you have any questions for me?

143
00:12:33,550 --> 00:12:34,070
Thoughts?

144
00:12:34,130 --> 00:12:35,770
Where's that sign in Morgan?

145
00:12:36,130 --> 00:12:37,410
I want to go take a look at that.

146
00:12:37,410 --> 00:12:43,170
it's right when you so they only have one exit and you're going to get off and

147
00:12:43,170 --> 00:12:48,030
turn left, you'll go through one light and it's right there you can't miss it.

148
00:12:48,830 --> 00:12:54,110
And it is it is quite a bit smaller than the one we're talking about.

149
00:12:54,190 --> 00:13:00,830
It's just right when you go under the bridge, the train track bridge and it's

150
00:13:00,830 --> 00:13:03,610
going to be on your left hand side.

151
00:13:04,130 --> 00:13:15,790
But I think it's very, yes, just yes, just the graphics on it, it's very legible.

152
00:13:16,250 --> 00:13:21,230
It's very, I think it's really nice and it's new.

153
00:13:22,150 --> 00:13:27,030
They had a different one in there before that didn't run video and they have just recently

154
00:13:27,030 --> 00:13:29,470
put this in and it looks really, really nice.

155
00:13:29,470 --> 00:13:36,190
One thing that we did want to do is provide a solution where there's going to be an initial

156
00:13:36,190 --> 00:13:40,590
cost and we can split that, whether it be labor or whatever supplies,

157
00:13:42,690 --> 00:13:43,470
but it then going

158
00:13:43,470 --> 00:13:52,250
forward that it would pay for itself and it would allow the city to put in their announcements

159
00:13:52,250 --> 00:14:05,210
if you will and then that would, the power and stuff would be paid for by us going out and soliciting people at a reasonable price to put their stuff on there.

160
00:14:06,050 --> 00:14:07,390
The high schools or whoever.

161
00:14:11,550 --> 00:14:21,670
So ideally we wouldn't want to get it in before winter, you know, not have to dig, be nice

162
00:14:21,670 --> 00:14:28,890
to have it in before Colville City lights festival. So these are some of the things that we've

163
00:14:28,890 --> 00:14:30,350
been thinking about.

164
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:39,220
We're kind of catching you off guard. Does anybody have any concerns or

165
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,680
things that you think we might be worried about?

166
00:14:44,380 --> 00:14:49,300
If you would like to email me, I'll send you a section in the development code addressing

167
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:54,920
electronic message signs with some of the provisions and standards associated with those types

168
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:55,520
of sign-in.

169
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:56,660
It might be helpful to you.

170
00:14:56,940 --> 00:14:57,020
Okay.

171
00:14:57,420 --> 00:14:58,280
I appreciate that.

172
00:14:58,280 --> 00:14:59,960
Right in discussing what

173
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:25,520
Mr. Marchin, when he was the mayor before, this is something that we kind of threw back and forth a little bit. He was indicating, any may have been wrong, that those codes, a lot of the codes that we see in park city aren't necessarily for, you know, your city. And so, well, yet there is, you know, the planning document that you're talking about. Some of that may or may not apply.

174
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:35,280
And for the most part, from what we looked at about a year or so ago, it mostly required

175
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,940
like certain wattage of bulbs.

176
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:42,060
That's a lumination type of screen.

177
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,400
I mean, yeah, there's several just provisions in here that I think would be helpful, just

178
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,320
make sure it's going to work for what you're hoping to do.

179
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:49,840
Absolutely.

180
00:15:50,300 --> 00:15:54,660
That would be something we'd want to do as if it's something that said he wants to do,

181
00:15:54,660 --> 00:15:59,100
we'd go through with the planning committee and we'll not make sure that we meet all of those

182
00:15:59,100 --> 00:16:07,040
codes that are there that do apply. And then, you know, also making sure that, you know,

183
00:16:07,100 --> 00:16:12,340
it's in the right spot. It's done right with the right material so it's long-lasting and it's not

184
00:16:12,340 --> 00:16:15,840
going to fall apart, you know, two, five years and whatever.

185
00:16:18,290 --> 00:16:21,810
Long we start with sending the inflation

186
00:16:21,810 --> 00:16:28,750
and Donna he'll send that back to you and then maybe we look at some you have concepts that you

187
00:16:28,750 --> 00:16:36,930
can send some images to Oregon and kind of go from there. Do you have a card like Jim's? Yes.

188
00:16:38,570 --> 00:16:44,110
And you? I'm sorry. Can I just point out real fast? Like what Donna is referring to,

189
00:16:44,110 --> 00:16:48,290
it sounds like you were referring to the dark sky ordinance of Summit County. Yes. Yes,

190
00:16:48,290 --> 00:16:55,450
which will be instituted for Eastern Summit County. I believe in two years as when it will be

191
00:16:55,450 --> 00:17:04,450
in effect but obviously things need to be constructed and analyzed from the perspective of

192
00:17:04,450 --> 00:17:10,930
a forthcoming but also like Dawn is referring to the city code so these will apply but yeah those

193
00:17:10,930 --> 00:17:16,730
are going to be the two authorities to keep in mind is it those through beta to clarify that.

194
00:17:16,730 --> 00:17:24,550
Yeah, both of those we can have schedules if it's something that would be necessary to have it dark at a certain time of night.

195
00:17:24,970 --> 00:17:28,470
Those types of things can be built into it.

196
00:17:28,710 --> 00:17:30,850
They are permitted to just have some standards.

197
00:17:31,970 --> 00:17:32,130
Right.

198
00:17:32,750 --> 00:17:34,630
I don't actually don't have one online.

199
00:17:34,870 --> 00:17:35,770
I bet it's online.

200
00:17:36,330 --> 00:17:37,250
Yeah, you can just write online.

201
00:17:39,270 --> 00:17:43,710
So my last question is we'll get working on that.

202
00:17:43,710 --> 00:17:46,390
And then, do you meet twice a month?

203
00:17:47,290 --> 00:17:48,810
Second and fourth Mondays.

204
00:17:49,230 --> 00:17:52,530
OK, and would that be all right if we came back in two weeks?

205
00:17:54,450 --> 00:17:56,750
Let's, if we want to talk about this in depth,

206
00:17:56,750 --> 00:17:57,970
we want to get it on the agenda.

207
00:17:58,630 --> 00:17:58,810
OK.

208
00:17:58,990 --> 00:18:02,270
So we start with sending that over, contacting Dawn

209
00:18:02,270 --> 00:18:04,030
and reviewing that.

210
00:18:04,650 --> 00:18:09,170
And then let's talk maybe next week about where it's at

211
00:18:09,170 --> 00:18:10,510
and if we want to get on the agenda.

212
00:18:10,970 --> 00:18:11,090
OK.

213
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:14,250
All right. Perfect. Thanks. Thank you.

214
00:18:19,120 --> 00:18:20,280
All right. Any others?

215
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,420
Okay. Anybody online?

216
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:32,840
No. All right. We will close public comment and move on Craig.

217
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:48,480
If we go right into the review and possible proof, I think we're going to have to do a closed session on this one.

218
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:48,760
Correct.

219
00:18:50,820 --> 00:18:57,180
Yeah, unless we need to do a close session, if there's any questions, we don't

220
00:18:57,180 --> 00:19:02,160
really want to go shit in public. So let me just do that first and then come out of

221
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,900
the close session to act on it. Okay.

222
00:19:08,790 --> 00:19:13,090
Make a motion. We'll talk about this from

223
00:19:16,190 --> 00:19:16,930
the pending legal.

224
00:19:16,930 --> 00:19:23,470
So is there any part of this that you think we could discuss in public or do you think it's

225
00:19:23,470 --> 00:19:26,230
necessary to go to a closed session?

226
00:19:29,780 --> 00:19:34,000
Yeah, my thought is if everybody's comfortable with it and you don't really need to discuss

227
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:39,320
it in detail, you could just approve it in public session.

228
00:19:39,740 --> 00:19:44,960
If you have questions and want to kind of explore it more in depth, I think that would be better

229
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:45,760
in a closed session.

230
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:46,740
Okay.

231
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,900
Yeah. I have a couple of questions and comments that you knew I would. I'm sorry.

232
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:04,420
So all right. Well, I'll move that we go to closed session for the purpose of discussing

233
00:20:04,420 --> 00:20:08,440
pending litigation. I'll second them. Right.

234
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,940
Motion in second. Council Member Wood.

235
00:20:16,460 --> 00:20:17,700
Oh, yes.

236
00:20:17,700 --> 00:20:17,880
Yes.

237
00:20:18,140 --> 00:20:18,960
Council Member Brady.

238
00:20:19,260 --> 00:20:19,440
Yes.

239
00:20:19,820 --> 00:20:20,560
It's Member Boyer.

240
00:20:21,500 --> 00:20:21,980
Yes.

241
00:20:22,660 --> 00:20:23,860
Council Member Palace.

242
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:24,380
Yes.

243
00:20:24,860 --> 00:20:24,980
Yes.

244
00:20:24,980 --> 00:20:25,120
Yes.

245
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:25,400
Yes.

246
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:28,340
All right.

247
00:20:28,540 --> 00:20:34,580
So we'll move into close session to answer any questions that will come back and finish the agenda.
