Addressing the Council: Mayor Bjorneby referred to a letter from the Kalispell Chamber of Com- merce regarding the control of "junk yards" and other offensive situations evident on the various approaches to the City of Kalispell, and requesting the City regulate these conditions as provided under Section 11-944 of the Revised Codes of Montana, 1947. Several members of the Kalispell Chamber of Commerce addressed the Council in this regard and pointed out the adverse effect on tourists in the area and the economic loss to the area because of tourists leaving the area due to the trashy look of the area. Chamber representatives felt the situation could be resolved cheaply and some community groups might possibly offer financial assistance in some instances. Councilman Roche moved the City Attorney be instructed to write letters to the parties involved. Seconded by Councilman Hensley and carried. Mr. Robert Empie of the Chamber of Commerce told the Council of plans to sponsor a community work day and of their desire to refurbish the out- side.of the Depot Park building and requested the City furnish paint and roofing material for this. Councilmen requested Mr. Empie to obtain estimates of the cost of the materials and to report at the next council meeting. Mr. Dale Storaasli made a request for a curb cut on Lot 12, Block 7, (corner of West Idaho and 1st Ave. W. N.). This was referred to the Street and Alley Committee. Councilman Hensley reported he had received several phone calls of in- quiry as to when the baseball fields in Woodland Park would be completed and ready for use. Councilmen discussed the need for a water line for the baseball fields, seeding and other needs. The possibility of using the fields as practice fields this summer was suggested. The Park Committee will contact Pee Wee representatives. Committee Reports; Parking Meters - Councilman Miron reported that there are 626 meters M0 i� in use--75 are on off-street parking lots. 145 of the meters were purchased in 1951. 481 of the meters have been installed between 1964 and 1970. A new money counter has been ordered..'• Councilman Miron reported that the City -County Planning Board plans to hire an in-house planner July 1st at a salary of between $9,000.00 and $12,000.00. Part of the planner's duties would be to re -do Kalispell's zoning ordinances. Safety - Councilman O'Brien reported the parking meter at the corner of 3rd Street and 1st Avenue East is too close to the fire hydrant and parking there is in violation of the ordinance regulating distance from the fire hydrant. The committee recommends the removal of this parking meter. Councilman O'Brien moved the meter at the corner of 3rd Street and 1st Avenue East be removed. Seconded by Councilman Miron and carried. The possible placement of stop signs on streets intersecting Woodland Avenue was discussed. A further study is to be made. Councilman O'Brien moved Mayor Bjorneby be authorized and requested to advise the State Highway Department of the most recent accident on Main Street (near Idaho Street) involving a logging truck, and requesting a truck bypass. Seconded by Councilman Miron and carried. Councilman O'Brien asked that Ass't. Police Chief Baldwin present his request for permission to send police officers to training schools in Boze- man at the expense of the Omnibus Crime Commission. The request includes the following officers: Sgt. Soderstrom to Police Management School from May loth to 15th, Officer Zachary to Basic Law Enforcement School, April 26th to May 15th and Officer Gifford to Major Case School from May 17th to May 28th. Councilman O'Brien moved authorization of the request of Ass't. Police Chief Baldwin to send the police officers to the schools. Seconded by Councilman McCormick and carried. Councilman Miron moved the dog catcher, Louis M. Kimbrell, Sr., be granted accrual of vacation and sick leave benefits from January 1, 1969. Seconded by Councilman McCormick and carried. Parks - Councilman Roche stated the bath house at the swimming pool Is - being cleaned by work -penalty youngsters. We do not have any bids on a public address system, but expect to ob- tain bids in the near future. Street & Alley - Councilman Roberts reported that in a letter from the Kalispell Golf Association, they ask that the City request Flathead County to construct a road from the Ted Waggoner corner west to Highway 93. The Kalispell Golf Association is to provide the funds for the road con- struction. Councilman Roberts moved the Mayor request Flathead County to build the requested road. Seconded by Councilman Roche and carried. Councilman Roberts reported that the cause of a recent gas explosion In Missoula had been traced back to a contractor who had damaged a gas line during excavation. This points up the need for the City to have an ordinance requiring anyone excavating in a street or alley of the City be required to secure a permit for the opening of the street or alley. City Engineer McClintick suggested that a gravel backfill also be re- quired. Annexation - Councilman Roberts reported that there are several resi- dents of 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Avenue West now outside the City limits, who desire annexation to the City. Councilman Roberts told council members the costs of installation of water lines, sewer lines and other Improve- ments that would be required for these people to qualify for annexation would probably be more than the people of the area could manage, and there- fore, did not think that this annexation would be completed. Misc. Business: Letters of resignation of Lt. Curtis J. Snyder of the Police Depart- ment and of Lydia Rosenau of the City Clerks Office were read to the Coun- cil by Mayor Bjorneby. Councilman Miron moved acceptance of the resigns- tions with thanks to each for their service to the City of Kalispell. Seconded by Councilman Hensley and carried. Councilman Miron reported that Mr. Carlson, owner of the Brice Apart- ments, requested some abatement of the garbage assessment, as some of the apartments were not being used as housekeeping units. Councilmen felt that the charges should not be abated, as the units are housekeeping units, which is the basis for the charge. The charge is based on the type of unit and not necessarily on how the unit is used. Councilman Miron reported that he had received another request from Mrs. Fred Paxton for a stop sign at 8th Street and 3rd Avenue West. City Engineer McClintick presented the request of Don Simmons for permission to gravel the boulevard for parking purposes for property lo- cated on loth Avenue West between 3rd and 4th Streets. This was referred to the Street and Alley Committee. The meeting was adjourned by Mayor Bjorneby. Read and approved as read this 13th day of April, 1970. City Clerk 1 Mayor
