Council Minutes 9/12/2006 (201) I I I Book 7-247 November 16, 1989 November 30, 1989 Hayse L. Whiteley, 3200 Midway, expressed some concerns. (1) The building permit issued to William Mcquillan to move a log house on to the lot on Ammon Road was issued correctly. The permit was challenged because it did not meet the square footage requirements of the zone. (2) The building permit fees charged by Ammon are high. The plan check fee should be reduced from 65% of the permit. Ammon does not have a building inspector at the present time. High fees discourage construction in Ammon. (3) It is questionable whether it is cost effective for the City of Ammon to buy a new pickup. Reports: Acting Public Works Director David Wadsworth reported that the blinking lights for the school crossings on Ammon Road are in the process of installation. There are so many street signs on Ammon Road that the Traffic Safety Committee needs to review and make a recommendation about them. The power pole has been placed at Well No.6, so the fire siren can be moved to City property where the City can get to it to maintain it. Civil Defense may give some financial help for a new siren. VerI Terry applied for a building permit for a house with a basement on Mason Street which is in the Flood Plain. The Council stated no permit shall be issued until the Flood Plain basement exception is resolved. Progressive Irrigation answered our letter about the hole by the Ammon Speedi Mart. "This particular problem has nothing to do with the Progressive Irrigation District. This is a private ditch and the ditch and headgates that come together here are owned privately by the farmers that use them. You will need to contact them and request their assistance." Mayor Ard instructed Public Works to reinforce a sheet of plywood to make a cover for the hole. Councilman Browning moved to adj ourn the meeting. The motion was seconded by Councilman Maeser.
