Those present are as follows: Mayor Burdette Weston, Council Members Eldon Robinson, Delora Wight, Brandon Willis and Clerk Alice Jackson. Those present in the room: Kris Hodges, Dennis Hodges, Mike Hansen, Duane Robinson, Ruby Hunter, Nellie Brown and Tamie Gomez. ACTION: Mayor called for the agenda to be approved. Motion by Council Member Brandon Willis and Seconded by Delora Wight. Motion carried unanimously. MAYOR OPENED THE WORK MEETING. ITEMS OF BUSINESS: Mike Hansen with Rural Community Consultants Mayor introduced Mike Hansen. Mr. Hansen gave a verbal presentation on his company software that potentially will house our Code and codify the Ordinances that are not yet codified. He noted that if we are using PDF's on our website for the Laketown Code, this is not easily searchable. Rural Community Consultants built the software internally specifically for towns to house their Code. He noted that Rich County is using his software and so is Woodruff. First year of the software would be free to Laketown. After one year we can then determine if we want to keep it. Mr. Hansen quoted the cost as a flat fee of $100/month/$1100 per year. This software would not host our website, but will include our Master Plan. There is a fee above the $100/mo. for Rural Community Consultants to take our Ordinances, codify them as needed for our Code. Mr. Hansen spoke to the importance of having a search bar for our Code. He also noted the importance of illustrations. These are not an extra fee. *Action Item for Clerk: Send Mr. Hansen Laketown Ordinances-those not yet on our website so he can provide us a bid. Rural Community Consultants will be starting a Newsletter regarding State laws that will alert their clients when State Code changes. This will not be an extra fee. Council Member Duane Robinson asked for references from other towns that have utilized the software. Mr. Hansen will send a link to the clerk for distribution to the Town Council and Planning and Zoning. Mr. Hansen distributed the latest version of the Laketown Master Plan to the attendees. Cody Reed arrived at 6:35pm. Mr. Hansen provided an updated Master Plan (paper copy) to those in attendance. Mr. Hansen has reviewed our old Master Plan and has incorporated some of the older information into the latest version however; Mr. Hansen's team needs to re-review it again. There was discussion regarding maps, zoning and specific pieces of property within the city limits that need updating. Mr. Hansen asked the group their thoughts regarding drawing a zoning map vs future land use map. With a zoning map the specific parcel has specific rights, but with land use map you must have a rationale. Currently, plots are acre lots to maintain the rural feel. Laketown must define what rural means. Mr. Hansen took notes regarding his To Do's. Mr. Hansen asked the attendees how they feel about annexation. Mayor noted that Laketown should state their future needs regarding annexation within the Plan. Terms with the rationale for annexation should be stated as well. For example-developers must bring in roads per the plan and water etc. Property owners can decide which town they will be part of. Maps should be included in the annexation plan. Plan should also include bullet points regarding future/long term plans for annexation such as areas that the fire district covers. Laketown cannot zone County land. Timing for comments should be soon especially if Laketown has plans to apply for a Grant in the fall. The Mayor encouraged the P&Z Committee to take a hard look at the Plan to ensure others are not adding information that they don't agree with. P&Z needs time to review the Plan and enter their comments. It is their responsibility to hold a Public Hearing on the Plan. Mr. Hansen will be in attendance for the Public Meeting. The timeline concession among the P&Z Committee was sometime in October 2022. Once this is complete then this Committee makes a recommendation to the Town Council and they approve it. P&Z needs this time to review the Plan and enter comments. Mr. Hansen encouraged the attendees to complete the Plan before applying for State Grants which are available in the fall. Mr. Hansen noted that the state has monies available for trails and if trails are something we want in our Plan, we should include them. Per Mr. Hansen, Federal Grant due dates are usually in September/October timeframe. Laketown has plans to apply for a Well Grant. Our community is in need of a second water source. This should be addressed within the Plan, using broad language. Per Mr. Hansen, BRAG did a study that Laketown may want to include in our Plan. Mr. Hansen will send a link of the Plan to the Clerk where comments can be added right into the Plan electronically. The Clerk will distribute to the attendees. ADJORN Work Meeting at 7:21pm.

Roads & Streets Updates - Councilmember Brandon Willis Brandon noted that MacKay Willis has commented that grass is growing in the streets. Council Member Brandon Willis noticed that we need to perform a Pavement Assessment Score. This involves going block to block to access the roads/cracks and assigning a Score. Tyler Stewart's group with Jones and Demille could do this on an hourly basis and recommend treatments however; Council Member Brandon Willis suggested that Mr. Stewart and Brandon could FaceTime and complete the Scoring.

Mayor approved the purchase of the new cable. 2. *Sale of Mower-Sold. This money will go back into the Parks and Recreation Fund. Cody asked about broad leaf control. Has anyone been contracted to do this. Mayor said he should go ahead and get it done; however, the mayor will check to Dallas Clark to see if it's already been done and he will let Cody know. MAYOR REPORTS: 1. Bear Lake Regional Commission Report -cancelled this month 2. County Master Plan Steering Committee-County Planning and Zoning want to have a Public Hearing before the end of June. Mayor noted that Laketown has not had a chance to have input into our Plan and wants to be sure the P&Z Committee meet attending the Mike Hansen meeting on June 20th. UPDATES FROM CLERK'S OFFICE: 1. Website-Clerk, Alice Jackson reported that GoDaddy has deleted all the P&Z meeting minutes. They promised to restore the site because they keep back-ups but to date it has not been done. GoDaddy is not a website builder, they have simple website templates you can utilize, but it's a do it yourself set up. Their customer service is lacking, the company's function is to host domains, and not help build/change your existing website. While trying to add minutes and agendas to the site, we were notified by GoDaddy that we are out of space. Alice would like to utilize another company to revise our website to allow for more space and to have a more user-friendly site in which to update. Alice also reported that she can delete all the meeting minutes and agendas and put a link to the Public Notice Website to allow for more space. Laketown Code and Master Plan are present on our website subtitled under Forms and Applications, which is not intuitive to the User. Previously, on the Website Home Page there was a 'button' titled Code. When clicked it did not link to our Code. I have since deleted this 'button.' Council Member Eldon Robinson suggested looking for other items that could be deleted such as 'Listen to Rich High School Volleyball Games'. *Action Item for Alice-Delete all meetings and agendas from the current website and provide a link to the Public Notice Website so we remain in compliance with state regulations which will also open up additional space on our website for other features. Commissioner Sim Weston noted that BRAG will be hiring an individual within 4-6 weeks to work with rural towns to help with codification. He will check with Brian Carver to ascertain what other services this new hire might be able to provide such as website building. These services will be free of charge to the rural towns. The Mayor noted that this individual might be able to help with codification then perhaps we will not need to utilize Mike Hansen's software option. Council Member Delora Wight and Council Member Brandon Willis asked how many Ordinances etc. we have that need codification. The Mayor remarked we have approximately 15 ready for codification. Clerk, Alice Jackson researched several options we might use for codification such as American Liberty (formally Sterling Codification), Municode and Mike Hansen's software option. These options were shared in an email for the Mayor and Council to review. American Liberty did not have favorable reviews by other city clerk's Alice checked with however; they do have our copies of our Code because this is the company we have used previously. Municode had high marks from several clerk's Alice spoke with. The codification is user friendly and is incorporated within the cities website. The Mayor asked Commissioner Sim Weston what the timeline might be for the BRAG new hire to become available to help us with codification. *Action Item for Commissioner Sim Weston to reach out to BRAG and report back. Council Member Delora Wight and Council Member Brandon Willis inquired regarding the timeline of the BRAG hire actually doing the codification for us as well as the timeline to have this person on site to complete this task. Commissioner Sim Weston was confident in our relationship with Brian Carver that we could accomplish the codification in a timely manner. Sim Weston reported that codification will be the focus of BRAG's new hire. Alice inquired if this new hire will actually do the codification and what involvement will the clerk need to have. The Mayor noted that we have to ready the materials, hold a public hearing and then the final product will be provided to the BRAG new hire for codification. We will still review Mike Hansen's codification software. The first opportunity will be June 20, 2022. Cody left at 9:25pm. Remaining attendees left at 9:45pm Clerk reported the number of Rodeo Sponsors (4) that have sent monies. Mayor noted that we need to take care of the Sponsors that want representation on the rodeo shutes. *Action Item for Council Members Delora Wight and Eldon Robinson review the current Rodeo banners to see which ones need to be redone. Materials will be difficult to find per Delora so she suggested this needs to be taken care of soon. Clerk, Alice Jackson asked Dan Stringham and Cody Reed if the new meters had been installed at the following two residences: Neff and Astle. They both reported they had been. Clerk asked for the readings prior to the new meter installations. Cody Reed will report back to Alice with these numbers. *Action Item for Cody. Delora noted that she did not receive Zions Bank April Statement. Alice tried to meet with bank representative but was not able until she is officially on the bank records as a signatory. This will be taken care of next week. Council Member Delora Wight reported that Zions Bank charges us a few to have our money in their bank. She also noted that Zions Bank is not user friendly. The Mayor suggested that we wait until after the rodeo and then we can review this closer. Council Member Delora Wight suggested Dallas Clark help with rodeo tickets. Mayor asked that the Council Members to review the budgets provided tonight. We need to finalize our FY2023 before our July meeting. We are overall within budget for FY2022 however; specific areas of the budget are over. The mayor asked Alice to send budget worksheet and operational budget to Teuschers (our accountants) to review and provide input (meet with us) so we can work towards finalizing our FY2023 Budget. *Action Item for Alice Council Member Delora Wight inquired about the amount of money requested by the Activity Committee. Most towns run their activity committee on their own with donations etc. The Mayor noted that if there are individuals that want to be part of and schedule activities for our community, this helps the Council. Council Member Eldon Robinson suggested the Council should decide on Christmas decorations and Rocky Mountain Power may or may not help us due to a new individual at Rocky Mountain Power. The Activity Committee should check with the Mayor and Council before planning activities and the dates associated with each. Council Member's Brandon Willis and Delora Wight furthered the earlier discussions on what our Code says on storage units. Should our Code be revised to be more specific, should the Code include 'conditional use' for example, storage shed owner may need to put up a fence to beautify the units appearance. The Mayor suggested that the Planning and Zoning Committee give us a start on the verbiage to update this specific Code. Brandon noted that whatever the law is when someone wants to build a storage unit, that law will dictate what the requestor can build. Discussion continued regarding the current locations of light industrial vs commercial. *Action Items for the Mayor and Council to read our Code on storage units and come to the next meeting with input. Council Member Brandon Willis shared that on the 9th of June the head of US Rural Development may be in the area and would be willing to meet with the Mayor and Council Members. Brandon reported that they have funding for emergency water and perhaps this should be part of the discussion when we met with her. *Action Item for Brandon to confirm her visit and report back to the Council. A short discussion took place regarding transient tax. The County determines where the funds go. APPROVAL OF BILLS-Done EXECUTIVE SESSION (if needed) ADJOURN : Mayor called for the meeting to be adjourned. Motion by Council Member Delora Wight and Seconded by Brandon Willis, Seconded.
