We 30 00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:16,280 began with you giving a little background on yourself and why you want 31 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:19,840 to be on Parks Commission, and I think the council would 32 00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:25,000 appreciate knowing that, too. Yeah, I've lived in Polk City for like 4 33 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:28,200 and 1/2 years, I think. 5 years. [laughter] That's my son, 34 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:31,480 sorry.

Thank you. 40 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:55,400 And we have another card here. Nick Ackerman is going to talk about the 41 00:02:53,320 --> 00:03:00,519 North Polk Wrestling Summer Flag Program. Welcome, Nick. Just tell us 42 00:02:57,959 --> 00:03:04,760 your name and your address, please. So, my name is Nick Ackerman, 705 43 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:09,600 Timberline Drive in Polk City. Also have Sean Stender and Josephine, who are the 44 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:14,040 men's and women's high school wrestling coaches here, too. So, 45 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:17,120 um, hopefully they can add something to to my little bit of knowledge that I 46 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:20,680 have, so. Um, 47 00:03:18,920 --> 00:03:27,120 I'm not sure what the formality is. I've I've talked with Rob about 48 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:31,959 uh, an opportunity for a wrestling club to provide uh, hopefully a city 49 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:37,800 enhancement, a really cool opportunity, but also a fundraiser for the for the 50 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:42,519 men's and women's wrestling team. As obviously, school funds are 51 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,680 not difficult to get, but you know, you have to get in line for them. If we can 52 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,040 raise our own funds and and hustle ourselves, 53 00:03:46,959 --> 00:03:50,880 uh, while making a really cool opportunity for the city, uh, we wanted 54 00:03:49,959 --> 00:03:54,000 to do it. So, there's some other communities, Sean's buddy that's over at 55 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,560 North Scott School District and Adel, I think, or 56 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:01,480 eight Yeah, Adel does is kind of a something similar, but I gave you all a 57 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:05,920 flyer. If anybody wants one, you're welcome to it. 58 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:10,640 Trying to produce something 59 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:15,280 standard that is going to be executable executable and and simple for the kids 60 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:18,840 to do in the community that'll that'll provide some 61 00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:22,480 funding for the high school boys and girls program. So, 62 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:26,040 you see the layout of it. Um we're going to do three holidays a 63 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:30,040 year, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and 4th of July. 64 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:34,600 Putting a flag in on Thursday, picking it up the following Tuesday. 65 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:39,280 Um 2 ft from the curb, between the sidewalk 66 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:44,640 and the curb. Looking to install something similar to this that has a cap 67 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,280 that will be below grade um [clears throat] 68 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,000 that the pipe will sit into for repeatability. 69 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:54,520 Um And uh 70 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:59,880 the kids can well, the adults and coaches will install these with the 71 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:03,840 homeowner's permission um and their signed job form that we have filled out 72 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:08,520 and ready to go, um but wanted to make sure there was no 73 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:11,280 hurdles or issues with the city in doing so. We really just want to make sure 74 00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:14,960 that if somebody comes to you guys and says, "What's this about?" 75 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:18,480 we've had a conversation about it. So. 76 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:21,608 So, as Nick mentioned, he did reach out and I talked to Chelsea and proceeded 77 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:25,560 with the conversation. It [clears throat] sounds as though there's 78 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:30,600 no ordinance restricting this anyway. So, I I think Nick's 100% right. This is 79 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:34,080 a cute community enhancement opportunity and I, you know, to whatever extent we 80 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,800 need to do some other things should not get in 81 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:42,960 the way of of of what the wrestling club wants to do. I think it it's a really 82 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:47,920 cool thing having seen it in Adel, it's a it's really neat and and uh a good 83 00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:53,000 opportunity to to raise some funds, too. So, if um um 84 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:57,040 again, aside from that, if there is an ordinance that through this has been 85 00:05:54,840 --> 00:06:00,560 identified that maybe something we look at, again, doesn't get in the way of 86 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:03,640 anything here. I don't know if we need any, 87 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:10,079 you know, support or just the fact that there's nothing standing in the way, 88 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:12,560 this is will suffice, but um >> [clears throat] 89 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:16,880 » happy to have a discussion if we do need an ordinance for right-of-way 90 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:20,880 um flags or or something that maybe this is identified. 91 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:24,360 Okay, so the these go in the right-of-way. They don't go on people's 92 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:29,280 lawns. The whole Is there a reason for that? 93 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:35,520 Trying to avoid um pet fences, irrigation systems, 94 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:40,520 uh any type of stuff that's between the sidewalk and the home. Um 95 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:44,680 most of that stuff stays uh 96 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:49,520 on that side. I think Aesthetically, it it looks really neat when you've got a 97 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:54,000 row of flags going down um a residential [cough] road, you know, 98 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:56,280 whether it's a arterial road or not. So, I 99 00:06:56,840 --> 00:07:03,400 that makes sense to me. >> How far below grade are the utilities 100 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:06,160 that are currently in the right-of-way? And I can't see the cap that they're 101 00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:11,360 talking about burying, so I don't know how far down they're talking about. It's 102 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:16,320 a 12-in This one's a little shorter. The It'll be a 12-in uh piece that'll be 103 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:20,680 below grade. And we've We've talked about having the homeowner install this 104 00:07:18,919 --> 00:07:25,360 for their own for our to avoid our own liability of 105 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:28,760 it, but um if nothing else, we have a job form that 106 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:32,680 has a signature off that, you know, that this will be 12 in below grade, goes 107 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:37,040 down in below this. These will be painted white so the kids can find them 108 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:40,320 easy enough. Uh I want them a standard distance if we 109 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:44,040 if we can do this, I want a standard distance from the curb. So, as they pull 110 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:48,800 up, they know like, "Hey, it should be somewhere about 2 ft away from the 111 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:53,200 the curb." Um that's kind of the thought. 112 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:57,000 I think it's great ideas, as long as it doesn't interfere with utilities buried 113 00:07:54,960 --> 00:08:00,200 in the ground, right? Yeah. Mhm. Can you weigh in on this about 114 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:05,040 » Uh sure. Um I spoke with Rob, and I asked police 115 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:11,280 chief and uh public works director to chime in. Um 116 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:16,919 I think it is a really great idea. It shows a lot of community pride. Um I was 117 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:22,120 able to find the city of Grimes does a very similar program. They've adopted a 118 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:26,440 flag ordinance that allows flags to be located in the right-of-way. I think my 119 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:32,880 recommendation would be that the city consider that ordinance um just so it's 120 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:37,360 it's regulated and it doesn't impact other groups that want to do something 121 00:08:34,599 --> 00:08:43,039 similar. You've got you know, a standard ordinance that uh the council would 122 00:08:39,680 --> 00:08:46,440 agree on and put in place for any future opportunities that might come up in 123 00:08:44,560 --> 00:08:53,040 addition to. Is it Is it feasible to get that on the 124 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:55,480 agenda for March 23rd since they have When are you going to start selling 125 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:59,920 April 1st? Yeah, my uh 126 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:02,600 timeline picture that I sent to Is that possible 127 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:05,760 » flag. So, part of the 128 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:10,040 you know, the hustle is to get it before Memorial Day here. 129 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:13,600 Um but also sourcing the materials, you know, 130 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,756 buy you know, the the goal and the hope is to 131 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,320 start with 200 here. >> [clears throat] 132 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:24,520 » Um we think that's a pretty reachable goal, but we got to source 200 133 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:28,880 flags, which is kind of hard to do, actually, uh that 134 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:32,920 are the same. Um so, that's going to be a So, as soon as we have an okay, as 135 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:35,920 soon as it's like, "Yeah, go ahead." Uh we're going to start spending money and 136 00:09:34,839 --> 00:09:39,480 and sourcing not only the pipes, but the 137 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:42,880 flags and all the stuff that goes along with it. 138 00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:47,600 Yeah, I I think we could get this on the next agenda and if the council's 139 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:51,560 interested in suspending the rules and waving the second and third reading, we 140 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:55,560 can have that on the agenda, too. I'm fine with that, but but let's be clear 141 00:09:53,360 --> 00:10:00,120 on where we are. There is not an ordinance now, which means there's 142 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:04,800 nothing prohibiting them from doing what they want to do. So, if in the meantime, 143 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:09,560 we want to adopt an ordinance that makes sense, fine. 144 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,560 I I just like 145 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:17,040 Right of way permits. >> It's not explicitly written in the 146 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:20,920 ordinance that flags are allowed or aren't allowed. 147 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:24,320 Um I think somebody could make the argument that it that we'd need to 148 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:28,440 follow our sign ordinance. That's why I'd prefer to put an actual ordinance in 149 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:32,480 place like Grimes has. I think that'd be I that'd be the best practice for the 150 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:36,920 city. Is it And then the other thing, too, is if you don't have an ordinance, 151 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:41,360 you're then obligated if you're trying to do 200 for Memorial Day, that's 200 152 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,527 right of way permits that would have to be done because that's the only way that 153 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,520 we >> [gasps and sighs] 154 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:50,680 » access that. And I understand the frustration that 155 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:56,640 sounding bureaucratic. There's a lot of utilities in the right of way and if we 156 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:59,720 don't have a permit and for whatever reason that utility gets 157 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:04,680 hit, the city's going to have a lot of issues. 158 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:09,160 Maybe. I really think we're looking for I mean, let's do it to get it out of the 159 00:11:06,560 --> 00:11:13,920 way, but and this theme is going to come up here when we're talking about 160 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:17,800 chickens later on, but we're we've got a benevolent organization 161 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:21,560 looking to do something really cool and we were bending over backwards to try 162 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:26,240 and make it as difficult as we can and I get that some of this is is foresight on 163 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:32,280 a one in a million scenario that we want to avoid, but can we just enable people 164 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:36,680 that want to do something good to do it? Well, what what would preclude them from 165 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:40,240 ordering their materials now in anticipation? I mean the council is 166 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:44,480 endorsing Yeah, if anyone has any hesitation, they can speak up. 167 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:48,400 Cuz I don't have any hesitation. I'll absolutely vote in favor of this. 168 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:52,360 None down here. So, it's just procedural. Well, then procedural. Well, 169 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:55,880 yeah, yeah, the obvious I mean, I think when we source all the 170 00:11:53,920 --> 00:12:00,040 materials, our cost of goods on all this is nine grand. It's just to be clear. 171 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:04,120 So, so substantial amount of money out of a nonprofit organization to put out 172 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:09,023 there kind of hoping, you know, that it gets through, that there's no 173 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:12,480 things that could stand in the way. So, >> [clears throat] 174 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:16,040 » so I did I I don't know. I just want to make sure that I don't 175 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:20,080 Knowing just as long as there's nothing that would get in the way. 176 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:23,480 I mean, if it's if we need to change the ordinance, right? Fine. Uh but we're all 177 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,240 saying yes. >> Yeah. Yeah. So, I I mean, I also Yeah. I 178 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:31,320 don't want to give you false hope, but it's absolutely hope. It's It's like 179 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:34,880 it's going to happen. Yeah, good. Well, I appreciate it, and that's why I wanted 180 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:38,000 to come here because I there are rules for everything, and I 181 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:41,240 want to make sure that we're just above board. Everybody knows what the 182 00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:44,600 what the stance is. >> And I just want to Oh, sorry. Go ahead, 183 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:50,240 Mayor. How high are these going to stand again? 184 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:57,080 » 9 ft. 9 ft. And it it shows a US flag on this side. Mhm. 185 00:12:53,920 --> 00:13:01,080 But it you might want to add that on the other side. 186 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:05,560 Can do. You just say flag, maybe you'd want to add US flag. Well, Because when 187 00:13:03,560 --> 00:13:09,360 I looked at this side without looking at this side, Well, you know, what kind of 188 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,880 flag is this going to be? I wondered if it was going to be a communist or a 189 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,440 sling flag. >> Well, 190 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:20,080 to be fair, I thought the same thing. Yeah, well, no, I I appreciate that, and 191 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:23,520 that was intentional. Um US-based manufacturers of flags are not 192 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,760 making US flags right now. They're making America 250 flags, which nobody 193 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,160 knows about in here because nobody would know that. Why would you? 194 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:34,160 But uh so when I tried to first source these flags, they said we're not we 195 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:38,080 don't we can't don't have the capability to make 196 00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:42,000 just regular American flags. We have the 250 flags that's what is in 197 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:46,200 production right now in all manufacturing of flags. So we thought at 198 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,880 first we were going to have to provide this 199 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:53,360 250 [clears throat] flag. But then we were maybe going to give to 200 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:56,280 the homeowner because we don't need 200 250 flags. 201 00:13:55,200 --> 00:14:00,520 And it would cut into the the the cost 202 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:04,040 benefit or the the fundraising. But um 203 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:08,720 So I didn't know that I could source 200 American flags, but I I think I found a 204 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,960 a place to get them. So I haven't [snorts] 205 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:15,600 pushed the order button waiting on What's their turnaround time? 206 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:19,520 Are there is there a turnaround time before Well, if they are in stock at the 207 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:24,400 place that I ordered it says they have 130 in one place and I can source the 208 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:28,520 another 70 from a few other places of the same flags so everything matches so 209 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:32,000 it's you know uniformed and looks nice. Um 210 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:35,720 As long as they're in stock I can order them and they're done. To produce them 211 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:38,440 to make them, they said we're not run doing a run of regular American flags 212 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:42,120 right now. We can get you 250 America 250 flags 213 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:46,280 which is like the Betsy Ross circle with a 250 in the middle. So it's like so I 214 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:49,080 didn't put that on there because I didn't know if it was going to be an 215 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:53,640 American flag or if it was going to be a America 250 flag. 216 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:56,360 But yes, I can put if if we can get the okay and we can get the ordinance 217 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:59,640 whatever we need done we'll start sourcing those 218 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,760 um as fast as we can. 219 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:06,400 So. Um well, I think you have council 220 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:10,520 endorsement for it and you'd probably be uh good to go ahead. 221 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:14,640 Welcome to coming before the council with these kinds of issues as you can 222 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:19,720 see that council members take a lot of things into consideration when they're 223 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:24,320 doing their decision making, but we're all very much in support of what you're 224 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:29,120 trying to do. I appreciate it. It'll be a a great thing. I like the the 225 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:32,160 the last goals and impacts is is what we we think it's going to be. 226 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:36,120 You know, it's going to put exposure for our wrestling teams, boys and girls, in 227 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,680 the community doing something that's giving back to their community. And 228 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:42,480 that's where the real value is. Of course, the financial value to allow 229 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:46,680 them to do things is one thing, but I think the community impact is is 230 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:50,415 probably greater, so. If there's a a fourth holiday that gets added, could I 231 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:52,280 suggest Nick Ackerman Day? >> [laughter] 232 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:55,000 » No, no. He's been doing this stuff all night. 233 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,480 Yeah, [clears throat] he's going to put other other people's names on 234 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:01,840 everything. There is a real Nick Ackerman Day. 235 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:05,640 I Thank you for coming in and and 236 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:08,960 we often times are on the back side of these types of things. 237 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:12,200 So, I'm glad that you're you're proactive and have the support. 238 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,680 Uh actually I'll go stand up there. Yep. 239 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,760 Please. Um I don't know. This is just just some 240 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,640 thoughts and I I want [clears throat] to make sure that we're good because we 241 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:25,280 talked about I'm Sean Standard, by the way. I'm the 242 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:29,240 head wrestling coach at the high school. Part of the Comet wrestling club as 243 00:16:26,839 --> 00:16:33,400 well, but just wondering if it's okay. So, if this gets the green light, are we 244 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:37,920 okay to put a stripe of paint on that curb just to mark for the kids so they 245 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:41,440 know where the the flag's going to go in cuz we're going to go 2 ft off of that 246 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:47,080 curb. So, just trying to make things easier and I just want to make sure that 247 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:47,080 that would be okay as well. 248 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:52,040 I don't think we have an issue with that. We'd want to coordinate like what 249 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:56,760 color of paint you use and we'd want to coordinate that with public works. Okay. 250 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:59,760 We We could have that conversation if you could provide us with a little 251 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:03,040 bit more information. It'd make it easier so the the homeowner 252 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:06,160 would know where it's at and the kids would know where to go instead of 253 00:17:04,199 --> 00:17:09,800 sending them in with a metal detector hoping they find it somewhere. 254 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:14,079 And then the other thing is too with utilities, what utilities are going 255 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:18,760 through the right-of-way? I mean, is it is it is it Do we need to 256 00:17:16,120 --> 00:17:23,160 call like Iowa One Call to have them come to every address just to make sure? 257 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,920 To cover yourself, I would recommend that. 258 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:32,920 Any anything older than probably 2010 259 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:37,360 pretty much every utility you can think of is in there. 260 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:41,480 Okay. Telephone lines, television lines, power lines, all sorts of stuff. Okay. 261 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:44,560 And I'm sure they can come out and knock them all out. 262 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:52,160 » Yeah, so so the time frame is to sell from April 263 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:56,360 1 to April 19. And then 264 00:17:54,480 --> 00:18:00,640 depending on you know, then we'll have a spreadsheet of addresses 265 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:04,320 that we can provide to one call. I don't know how that actually works. I mean, 266 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:08,360 I've done it for our own place, but like to do it on a 267 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:12,920 scale of 200 in a in a town might be a We just probably contact them 268 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:17,880 Yeah. ahead of time. Yeah. So, coach, um just another 269 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:23,520 recommendation for you. Um you might if you're going to put a 270 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:26,280 stripe on people's curbs >> But they notify them, yeah. 271 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:30,480 » you might want to let them know that because there are some people who don't 272 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,960 would not appreciate paint on their >> would. We would. 273 00:18:31,547 --> 00:18:35,760 » [clears throat] >> Yeah. 274 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:39,880 That's all I have. Thank you. Thank you for Thank you. coming before the city 275 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:44,360 council. Um I only had two cards, so we'll move 276 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:49,480 on to item number five, which is consent items, and I'll ask for a motion and a 277 00:18:46,360 --> 00:18:51,440 second to approve the consent items. So moved. 278 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:56,520 Second. >> And roll call. 279 00:18:53,480 --> 00:19:02,320 Yes. Otis. Yes. Surchett. Yes. Savage. Yes. Dvorak. 280 00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:06,480 Yes. So, moving on to item number six, which 281 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:15,680 is business items. You see we have items on there A, B, C, and D. We've been um 282 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:20,240 contacted by the developer for item A that they would request that we table 283 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:27,640 that discussion on item A to give them some 284 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:35,200 more time to um come up with their presentation. So, um 285 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:40,560 I think what we'll do is go ahead and um remove item A from our business 286 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:46,480 items. Do we need to have a vote on that, Chelsea, or do we just remove it? 287 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:51,760 The council could vote to table it until the next meeting. Okay. So, why don't we 288 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:57,600 just do that? Why don't we get a motion to table item A until 289 00:19:54,880 --> 00:20:04,160 our next meeting, which is the 23rd? So, I ask for a motion and a second. Uh 290 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:07,400 motion to table item A until March 23rd. 291 00:20:06,120 --> 00:20:10,880 And is there a second? >> Second. 292 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:15,440 Um I guess we could have discussion on that if there was any discussion, or it 293 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:21,840 seems pretty cut and dry to me. Uh so, I'll just ask for a roll call on 294 00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:25,160 that, then. Hill? Yes. Otis? Yes. Sarchet? Yes. Savage? 295 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,240 » Yes. Dvorak? >> Yes. 296 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:34,640 So, let's move on to item B, then. Second reading of ordinance 2026-400, 297 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:40,880 approving rezoning of property located near the intersection of Northwest Hug 298 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:47,360 Drive and Northwest 77 72nd Street from R1 to C1 restricted. 299 00:20:45,120 --> 00:20:47,360 Um 300 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:55,200 Are This is a second reading. Do we have any kind of a presentation from you, 301 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:57,760 Travis, on that? Only if Only if council has questions or would like to discuss 302 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:02,480 it. Okay. I'll approve it. All right, and a 303 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:08,920 second? Second. And roll call. 304 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:11,240 Dvorak? Yes. Hill? Yes. Otis? Yes. Surchat? 305 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:15,800 » Yes. Savage? >> Yes. I'm presenting on C. All right. So, 306 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:19,600 then we'll move on to item number C, which is first reading of ordinance 307 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:23,800 2026-200, amending chapter 25, city manager, 308 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:27,744 section 25.04, duties, purchasing. And Chelsea has a 309 00:21:26,360 --> 00:21:29,440 presentation on that. >> [clears throat] 310 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:35,680 » Thank you, Mayor. Um so, for the city council to consider 311 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:42,200 this evening is a an amended city manager ordinance, which is specific to 312 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:47,800 um section 25.04, titled duties, in the city code. Um I 313 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:54,840 would propose the council consider updating section nine, purchasing, under 314 00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:59,280 the duties of the city manager. Um I'd ask the council to consider increasing 315 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:03,600 that from $10,000 to $15,000 316 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:09,000 without council authorization. The reason I am making this request is 317 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:14,000 last year, the city council updated the city spending policy. A copy of that 318 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:18,240 policy is available in your packet. We had conversations at the time to 319 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:23,320 increase the city manager's um purchase authority, and we made this change in 320 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:27,440 the policy. I had noticed that it contradicted the code a few months ago, 321 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:32,840 and so to align the policy with the code, I'd request that change be made. 322 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:36,280 I'd be happy to answer any questions the council may have. Any questions of 323 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:41,320 Chelsea? Uh ask for a motion and a second, then, 324 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:45,520 to approve item C. I'll move. 325 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:49,200 Second. And roll call. Hill? Yes. Otis? 326 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,240 Yes. Surchat? >> Yes. Savage? 327 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,360 » Yes. Dvorak? >> Yes. 328 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:57,560 » [clears throat] >> Okay. Moving on to item D, first reading 329 00:22:54,800 --> 00:23:03,680 of ordinance 2026-300, amending chapter 58, urban chickens, 330 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:08,200 section 58.04, zoning districts, and 331 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:13,520 Cody, you're presenting, I understand. >> Yes, I think the amendment is set forth 332 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:17,040 to include the R2 district in the allowed zonings. 333 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:21,480 Um, this would be restricted to detached single-family dwellings so there's no 334 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:23,960 confusion that duplexes or townhomes would be allowable with that. I don't 335 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:27,840 think they would meet the other criteria, but it's just 336 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:33,760 cleaner that way to state that it's restricted to the detached dwellings. 337 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:38,800 Council questions of Cody. So, I I have no problem with this, but 338 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:43,160 I'm going to take this opportunity to reiterate some of the earlier concerns 339 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:47,520 uh cuz they've been expanded a little bit. So, when we approved this, I I felt 340 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:53,920 like our requirements were a little bit much um and subsequently we didn't have 341 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:59,051 very many people apply for a permit because of that and and then um 342 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:02,560 learning afterwards that >> [clears throat] 343 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:09,120 » the uh video requirement or video course that was required, which was presented 344 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:14,040 as free, is not free, uh further makes um our requirements, in my opinion, a 345 00:24:12,120 --> 00:24:16,560 little onerous for uh 346 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:21,800 raising chickens, which is a tenuous thing to pencil out from a financial 347 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:26,720 standpoint anyway, and and I'm not sure there's a value add proposition for a a 348 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:33,360 whole lot of uh requirements on our permit requests since it's not something 349 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:36,640 that we enforce proactively anyway. So, um 350 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:40,160 if we want to really look at getting this right, and I'm all for expanding to 351 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:46,840 uh R2, um I think we should look at um our 352 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:49,960 costs and the requirements that we have um 353 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:56,120 on there. Can I ask what is the charge? 354 00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:59,520 It's not free, what is it? The permit charge? No, the one to look at the 355 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:05,160 video. I don't know. >> It's $25 through Iowa State. 356 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:10,280 $25. So, what are we asking for people all together to commit to having 357 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:13,720 chickens? So, they have to meet all the set forth requirements uh with the 358 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:19,320 adoption. Um there's the $50 permit fee plus proof 359 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:23,960 that you've taken Right. That's the way it's stated. I've not had 360 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:26,520 anybody actually renew it. Um so, 361 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:33,320 the permit fee and then the the video. >> $50 course fee with they provide a 362 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:37,640 certificate at completion that is required to be included with the 363 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,640 application. 364 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:46,720 Well, I think I remember when this discussion was first had that council 365 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:54,440 was okay with people having to invest a little bit of money on their own 366 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:54,440 in order to get that certificate. 367 00:25:54,520 --> 00:26:01,000 The demonstrate that they really wanted it, they were serious about having 368 00:25:58,120 --> 00:26:04,760 chickens. The building of a coop and buying feed and chickens isn't an 369 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:08,320 investment already? Well, I agree with this. I would agree with you that's an 370 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:11,920 investment, too. But, I think education is always a good investment. 371 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:22,480 Let's just hold on. It's $25. Well, is it fair to say that 372 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:26,000 nobody this the this chicken thing um or the wrestling, these are first-time 373 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:30,400 things, right? Not the chickens better up. I know that's been um around for a 374 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:34,360 while, but was it simply an oversight that we 375 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:39,720 didn't include all R R1, R1A, and our R2 in it? Or did we on 376 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:42,880 purpose not put R2 in it, right? I mean, it doesn't even matter. That I think you 377 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,440 could make an argument for. We were easing into something like this. It's 378 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:51,360 just and and who knows, you know, there there 379 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:57,360 are in this town especially, R1 is not there's not a standard lot. That's even 380 00:26:53,400 --> 00:27:04,400 more true for R2. So, that I get. I just it's the bureaucratic red tapey stuff 381 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:07,920 that we've added to make the process I don't know. I mean 382 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:11,160 The other piece of that though, Rob, is they do live in town. 383 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:15,520 And I'm a farm kid, right? I love chickens, but I moved to town. So, it's 384 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:19,400 going to take me a little bit if I I feel like I shouldn't invest something 385 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:23,840 if I'm going to have something that typically would not even be in my 386 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:28,720 backyard in town, right? So, I think we just include this and if we 387 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:32,680 as we go through, we just make sure we put a fine tip on what we're asking and 388 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:37,120 to make sure that if we were the ones applying that we would feel okay with 389 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:41,480 doing it and it wouldn't not saying there's not red tape and it's not 390 00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:44,360 bureaucratic at some level, but just doing the best we can as we move 391 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,640 forward. My thoughts. 392 00:27:46,339 --> 00:27:51,960 » [snorts] >> I think part of I guess 393 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:57,280 beyond. Would it make you feel better if we did 394 00:27:53,680 --> 00:28:02,240 a one-time or a first-year application fee of $50 and then reduced it for 395 00:28:00,120 --> 00:28:05,480 subsequent years? Would that make it you feel better or is 396 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:11,360 it the whole education part? Is it everything or I mean, 397 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:16,000 in the in terms of making progress, I yeah, if you if you we change the amount 398 00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:19,280 and get rid of the class requirement. 399 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:25,120 Got it. I think class requirement is 400 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:29,320 definitely a necessity and especially if it's somebody that never grew up with 401 00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:34,040 chickens just to make sure they've got that base line. And you can have it this 402 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:38,040 way. But it that's >> Again, that's my opinion. Yeah, and and 403 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:42,200 I get that. But we're pretending like the city's going 404 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:47,200 to make people do homework. We're you know, you can buy eggs for 405 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:52,400 much cheaper than you can spend time raising them. So, to assume that people 406 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:56,200 are just going to blindly go to Tractor Supply Company and throw a couple of 407 00:28:54,600 --> 00:29:00,480 chickens in their backyard and hope for the best is 408 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:05,840 is just is not going to happen. And and so, we can add a class that wastes their 409 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:11,200 time and a little bit of their money and pretend like it's making something 410 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,200 better, but in actuality, it's not. 411 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:17,160 I felt that same way about going to college. 412 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:22,280 There were a lot of classes that I didn't want that I didn't want to fund 413 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:28,760 that ultimately were good for me. Um I I'm one of those people 414 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:33,360 I want to know that if my neighbors have chickens, that they have gone through 415 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:39,520 the education process and they know what's required of them and how to take 416 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:43,800 care of chickens. Chickens are not easy to take care of. I realize that they 417 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:46,200 invest money in a coop and stuff like that. 418 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:52,120 You know, a coop is a piece of it. Education is a 419 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,120 really important part of it. 420 00:29:54,080 --> 00:30:00,280 Yeah, I would say I I could get behind looking at the the permit fee, but I I 421 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:04,640 can't agree with that. I think the training is a necessity. Um not 422 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:09,080 necessarily for the homeowners, but just trying to reinsure to their neighbors 423 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:13,080 that might not be fans of chickens that at least they did some due diligence to 424 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:16,240 understand how to take care of those. So, 425 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:20,720 um but I would entertain potentially looking at changing the permit fees. 426 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:27,280 Would somebody include that in a motion if you're going to approve the first 427 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:32,240 reading tonight that you would like for us to adjust the ordinance for the 428 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:37,840 second reading? What I'm hearing is leaving it at a $50 permit. 429 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:41,960 And you it's it's a one-time permit instead of an ongoing permit. Well, if 430 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:46,880 we're not collecting past one year anyways, we need to. I think I think it 431 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:53,080 makes a ton of sense. I will tell you, and Cody can chime in here, too. 432 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:56,560 It takes 1 to 2 hours of Cody's time to go out and make sure they meet the 433 00:30:54,400 --> 00:31:01,960 setback and the lot size requirements. So, if you can just recoup that cost, I 434 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:04,880 I don't think there's an issue with it. The likelihood that once it's there that 435 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:08,480 they're going to be moving it around their yard is pretty slim. There are 436 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:12,760 there's regulations against it if it is caught. It's just It's a pretty onerous 437 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:19,840 process to be out there counting chickens when there's other things on 438 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,840 the the list to do, as well. So, 439 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:27,800 What do you need the motion to say? Could you if you're if you're going to 440 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:34,320 make a change to what is in the packet tonight, if you can explicitly 441 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:38,440 state the other change so that we can get that on the next council agenda. 442 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:46,320 I just want to make sure I heard Chelsea right. It's a one-time permit fee, not 443 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:50,440 an annual permit fee. Yes. If it's one-time, then no, I don't think 444 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:54,880 we should change it. No. Oh, sorry. No, it's it's a reoccurring. 445 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:59,172 It is It is reoccurring? Yeah. So, we're looking to make a motion to make it a 446 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:01,840 one-time fee. >> [snorts] 447 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:06,680 » Um I would entertain 448 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:10,200 reducing it to $25 for each subsequent year after the first year. 449 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:14,960 Or is that just too complicated? I think that's too complicated cuz even James 450 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:18,120 said, I mean, we pointed out that people haven't been collecting it after the 451 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:22,600 first year. So, if we at least recoup Cody's 452 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:25,080 investment on his time for the first year, 453 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:30,160 then So, 454 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:35,120 let me get this straight. We're We're requiring education for people to 455 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:38,960 do this at at a collegiate level, I guess, somehow, but then we're not even 456 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:44,120 willing to follow up on our own ordinance that says it's it needs to be 457 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:48,560 collected annually. Yeah, I think that's a good question. Why aren't we following 458 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:52,760 up on that? There to date, I think I've received about 459 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:57,600 five permits that have actually been issued, and it'll be 460 00:32:55,480 --> 00:33:02,640 getting to that point where some of them will be expiring. So, there will be a 461 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:07,440 period that it'll it'll come across my expired permits that I will be following 462 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:13,720 up with them. So, so if if that comes across your desk that the permit is 463 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:19,920 expired, and it's $50 to renew it, then that $50 that they're paying is paying 464 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:24,720 for you to go out and make sure they're doing everything correctly. It would be 465 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:27,840 a recheck of making sure that their coop is where it's supposed to be. They've 466 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:32,000 got the right numbers. Um Right. Etcetera. With how they 467 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:35,400 Basically the same application again, and they would go through the same 468 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:40,240 process in paying that. Because Because we know better, and we want to verify, 469 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:43,880 and of all the things that Cody can be checking, this is worth his time. 470 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:48,920 » I think we're we're trying to get to a motion where we get rid of it. 471 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:52,440 I thought we were changing No, we Just so it's a one-time thing so 472 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,440 he doesn't have to keep going doing it wasting his time. 473 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:01,880 Okay. So, the man And the education thing is a one-time deal, deal, too. 474 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,760 Correct. Yep. 475 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:07,720 They would still have the same certificate from the first application 476 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:11,760 if it was an annual reoccurring permit. That would just get re-uploaded, but 477 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:16,960 yes. So, they put 75 bucks into the game. They put some skin into the game 478 00:34:15,240 --> 00:34:19,120 because they want to do this, and then basically They got their coop, and on 479 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,639 top >> Well, okay. 480 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,639 Okay. 481 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:32,120 Yeah, well, so they get some skin in the game, and they educate themselves 482 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:36,440 on how to raise chickens so they can explain to their neighbors that they 483 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:40,760 have watched a video on how to raise chickens 484 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:45,360 and stuff. So, we're notifying their neighbors when they get the permit? No, 485 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:49,320 I I'm pretty sure that their neighbors would probably let them know if they 486 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:53,159 didn't think it was growing very well. >> so they've got skin in the game. They're 487 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:56,520 doing that. Justifying all this bureaucratic stuff 488 00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:02,320 and then pretending like it's having the effect that you're stating it is, which 489 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:06,080 it is not, is very misleading. Well, 490 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:10,520 um [clears throat] I I Having some standards is not a bad idea 491 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:15,040 as far as I'm concerned and it we're asking it to be a one-time deal. 492 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:21,320 » without an application. Yes. I'm going to motion to approve 493 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:25,040 the chicken first ordinance 20 494 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:33,640 2026-300 amending chapter 58 um to include to 495 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:37,680 change the annual to a one-time subscri- uh 496 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:44,680 the permit permit fee and to then add it to all the zoning 497 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,680 districts or all the uh 498 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:53,360 R1A or the R1 R2. I'm sorry. So, R2. As long as it's single detached dwelling. 499 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,600 Correct? Yep. Okay. And 500 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:59,200 » Seconds. Wait, what about the fee for the 501 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,400 education? It's not changing.
