MUSEL7M AND ART CENTER
Planning Director Harris submitted the recommendations of the Parks
and Recreation Commission and Civic Arts Commission with respect
to the schematic plans for the new Museum and Art Center. ��,�
The Parks and Recreation Commission was pleased with the proposed
structure, including both the exterior design and placement within the
park; however, it was their recommendation that the secondary parking
area be eliminated and that only an access drive be provided for delivery
and service..
The Civic A.rts Commission unanimously approved the plans and recom-
mended that the project be implemented.
Mr. Harris said that, although it had been suggested originally that the
building be constructed to be open for use during the summer of 1976,
staff urges Council to consider proceeding with the project at this time
with construction during the spring and summer of 1975, due-to ever
increasing construction costs and the space needs of the Museum. It

; is therefore requested that Council authorize the expenditure of funds
; estimated,at $22 ,400 for architectural plans (based on 8% of the con-
� tract price of the building) and authorize the Mayor to execute said
, .
' contract. ,
In a discussion about placement of.the service entrance at the west
end of the building, Mr . Harris said it is desirable to have this en-
, trance more centrally located in relation to the total building. ,
� Placement of the service road to the north of the building was also
discussed. Mr. Harr�is explained that this could be discussed with
the committee; however, he noted that it has been suggested that
, the loading platform could double as an arriphitheatre and the present
location lends itself to this use. In response to an inquiry, Mr.
' Harris stated that outdoor lighting will be included in final plans .
� Architect Allyn Martin spoke briefly about the plans and said he is
� enthusiastic about the, use of the loading platform as a.n amphitheatre.
� MOTION: Made by Councilman Anderson; s.econded..by Councilman
Pugh authorizing the expenditure of funds estimated at $22 ,400 for
architectural plans and authoriz'ing the Mayor to execute said -contract.

' CONTINUED PUBLIC' HEA.RING - A1ta Subdivision and Adjacent A.reas A..D.
i
The hour, of 7:30 P, M. having arrived, Mayor Denny opened
; the Continued Public Hearing on Proposed Increased A.ssess-
ment, Alta Subdivision and A.djacent A.reas A.ssessment District
1968-3.
,.The .following documents are on file in the office of the City Clerk�
! ��� Affidavit of Publication - Notice of Hearing on Proposed
� Increased A.ssessment
� A.ffidavit of Mailing _ " " "
The City Clerk�advised Council that no new written� protests
had been filed s;ubsequent to the Public Hearing on July 15 ,
, 1974. I
The protests filed on July 15 , 1974 were reviewed as follows:
Mary Oliver (represented by Attorney Dan Frost)
, Associate Civil�Engineer Hastings advised Council that 2. 95
acres of the Oliver property is assessed and that, according
to Bond Counsel, this land benefits from the sewerline.
Objections to t le assessment expressed by Mr. Fros.t in-
cluded: 1) property is being used for horse pasture and,
, as such, wouldlnot be serviced by the sewer, and 2) owner
is not in a position to develop property because of inadequate
access 'to said'property. Mr, Frost noted that Mrs.- Oliver
has a liome on this property which is in an existing 'sewer
assessment district. (It was later disclosed that the Oliver
home is served by a sewerline installed by Mr. Kennicott
for one of his developrnents) '
The question of' inadequate access to the property was dis-
cussed and it was determined 'chat.a.20 foot unimproved road, .
deeded to the Ci ty by Mrs . Kennicott, runs the length of the
property. In order to develop her propercy, Mr:s . .Oliver
would have to participate in the .cost of widening and ixnproving
the road.to City standards.
.

Mr. Frost"requested the City to assume the assessment , �
represented by Mrs . Oliver's property then, if the property /
is developed at a later date, the assessment would be charge- i
able to the owner of the property. � �
l
�
Tlie� assessment on this property ($15 ,422 based on 16. 1 basic �
units) was ques,tioned by members of Couricil who felt that the
parcel should only be assessed for 12 basic units , based on
70 foot frontage lots. �
Bond Counsel Ed Ness was asked if it would be legal for the
City to assume the assessment and defer charging i:he property
owner until the land is developed. Mr. Ness said the City
could pick up the as ses sment and then enter into an agreement
with the property owner for a deferred payment. The deferred
payment could be tied either to a cost index or an interest rate
could be .establishecl, or both.
Mayor Denny questioned the wisdom of embarking on a practice
of deferral payments in assessment districts. He feels that if
the City goes this route it must be made known and the City
would have to honor such requests , which could result .in heavy
investment of City money.
Councilman Demsher s�ares the Mayor's concern.
Jack Buffum, land developer, said he approved the deferrment
of charges for Mrs. Oliver, b.ased on present use and the diffi-
culty in developing the property.
D.C. Silkwood ,
1VIr.. Silkwood reiterated the protest set forth in his letter dated
July l:; i.e. , he has rentals on :the two properties and could not
pass on _to� the.tenants the additional cost of the �assessment dis-
trict;and because the present sewage disposal system has been
fully ad equate. .
Nancy Zumwalt and Douglas and Nancy Z . Ward
No�one appeared at the hearing on behalf of the above persons .
E. H. Haunschild and others
No one appeared at the hearing on behalf of the above person.
Archie Thomas '
Mr. Hastings showed an aerial view of the Thomas property
which depicted the location of the drainage ditch on the Thomas
property. It is the contention of Mr. Thomas that 42' of his
property -cannot be improved because of the angle of the drainage
ditch. Staff does not feel that the drainage ditch impedes 'improve-
ment of the property; the set back required by the City would
allow for development behind the existing ditch. Mr . Thomas
also said he does not feel residentiai and commerc'ial property
should be assessed at the same rate. �
William Leach
Mr. Leach did not .appear at this hearirig. Council que stioned
an assertion contained in his letter that he had been told there
would be an adjustment made on his assessment because of the
drainage ditch on his property. Mr. Hastings said that he re-
called that Mr. Leach was told that the situation would be: re-
viewed to.�see if an adjustment was justified; but was not aware
of any such adjustment being promised.

���� In a discussion of the drainage ditch and ownership of same,
` Mr; Rudy Enger said that the ditch is owned by the City. .
� Mr. Denny askid Mr. Hastings if it is his position that the'
� property is developable into at least three parcels and that
the ditch;can be4 either covered .or the course .changed sli_ghtly
, to ac.commodate the development. Mr. Hastings said he can
not think of any�reason why the ditch could not be redesigned
j to allow for suc� development.

and said she and her neighbors were against the assessment

Jerry Boyer, Ma,nager.�of Motor Truek;>Distributors Company,
stated�that the installation.of sewerlines in this asses.sment

Boyer said that $12 ,000 was expended last year on septic tank
problems at.their busines s site and they 'cannot s,urvive another

� MOTION: Made by Councilman Fulton, seconded by Councilman
' :Ander:s:on�approving .the deferred.payme�nt of-the'Oliver assess-
ment as suggested by Attorney Dan -Frost; on an equitable -basis .
In a discussion of this motion, City A.ttorney Murphy cautioned
that Council must spell out that City money is not being expended
' to the benefit of.the property owner as the City is constitutionally
prohibited from making a gift of public funds. A.ssuming that the
defer,red payment were approved, the question arose as to whether
; the interes.t fact�or or cost index factor would be the proper basis
� to apply. A.noth�er point raised was the precedent such action would
establish. It was felt that this could be dangerous. It was also
pointed out that �the concept. of.deferred payments might expand to
other pr.operties where` the owners claimed there was no immed-
iate benefit, such as lumber storage yards, etc.
