REPORTS
Councilwoman Dille noted that the Amimal Control Ret>ort'for the month of
September listed 14 dogs impounded from Ammon, which is an improvement
over previous months and speaks will for the new officer. The regular
Law Enforcement Report for the month of September was also reviewed.
Attorney Anderson disdributed copies of the revised agreement with the
Iona-Eonneville Sewer District as recommended in the study made by the
engineering firm of CH2M, and pointed out that this has been approved by
the Sewer District officials and action is needed by the City of Ammon
as soon as possible. It was noted that Benton Engineers recommends going
ahead with the revised agreement even though it is different from the
original one. Another matter brought to the attention of the Council
by Attorney Anderson was in connection with business with the Bank of
Commerce relative to L.I.D. #6 and L.I.D. #7 interim warrants -and bonds
as indicated on claims submitted.

Enqineer Benton reported that B & W Equipment has quoted a maximum figure
of $6,133 to repair the deep-well pump'at Well #6, and Councilman Lee re-
commended that the work be authorized on this basis. Regarding getting
the sand cleaned out of the water storaqe tank, Engineer Benton noted that
there has been no results in trying to locate equipment to do the job, and
Councilman Swensen agreed to make arrangements for the use of a special
farm pump which he believed ,would be satisfactory for this purpose. -It
was recommended by Engineer Benton that the sewer meter station equirpment,
which has never worked properly, be replaced with the kind of equipment
which is planned for the Ion~-Bonneville Sewer District meter station.
He stated that H-K Contractors have been contacted about this, and that
he could get costs for approval. The Council members indicated agreement
on this proposal, and Councilman Lee remarked that H-K Contractors should
make some allowance- since they did n@t fulfill their part on the sewer con-
struction contract in connection with the metering station. According to
Engineer Benton, the officials of the IBSD are trying to get approval on
the line from 17th Street north to 1st Street immediately in order to
hook on Mobilehomes Estates and the Cloverdale subdivision in the near
future, so it is necessary to get the meter station in operation as soon
as possible.
A report by the City Clerk listed claims to pay in the amount of $~ffi6.94
and a General Fund checking account balance of $26,695.72, noting that
funds will be available for investing~

Councilman Swensen noted that the proof for the coupon books has been
checked and sent back to the printer, so the books will be availble in
time for the billing for November services to be paid on December 10th.
Claims were approved for payment. Councilwoman Dille moved to adjourn;
seconded by Councilman Lee; the meeting was adjourned at 10:10 P.M~
