Councilmember Randy Christensen met with the county in reference to the CIB application, he will submit the application this week, the first public hearing will be held June 8, 2021 at 7:30. Councilmember Jay Mecham inquired about his garbage contract, which according to the Director of Finance & the City Auditor has not been approved by the council. However further investigation showed that the mayor did sign the contract in 2019 but it was not approved by the council at the time of signing. The minutes for that date stated the issue was tabled. This being the case, the contract will be up for approval again in 2024. It is a 5 year contract. It will require the council to approve the Country Garbage Contract during the June 8th 2021 council meeting to satisfy the 2019 signing. Councilmember Amy Stanley presented the tentative schedule for the 24th of July Celebration. The schedule is attached and will become a permanent part of the minutes for public viewing. The celebration will be held Friday July 23 and Saturday July 24th, 2021. Councilmember Stanley is happy to have Clayton Smalley a Utah Based Country Artist performing at the celebration on Saturday the 24th at 8:30 p.m. There is a concern in regard to the concrete stage according to Councilmember Stanley it will need to be made larger before the celebration. Jason Gibson will provide the music and work as the DJ for the celebration. She noted the stage is too small, by the time Jason gets his equipment on the stage there is not enough room, and we will need to add two feet of concrete on each side. There is an option of a wooden stand that could be removed after the celebration but she noted the concrete stage would be a much better option. Councilmember Mecham said one of our city contractors might have enough concrete left from one of their jobs to make the stage. Stanley said she will check with local builders to see if that is a possibility. A Grand Marshal for the parade still needs to be selected and needs to have the selection process started for the King and Queen and Prince and Princess. FYI: There were three (3) motions voted upon and passed, a motion to approve the May 11, 2021 minutes, a motion to approve a clean out system for the sewer plant, and a motion to adjourn this meeting of May 25, 2021. PAY FINANCES ADJOURNMENT: Councilmember Jay Mecham moved to make a motion to pay the finances and adjourn, Councilmember Frank Riding made a second to that motion, all present were in favor, motion carried.
