Council Meeting
Mar. 18, 1986
Councilmen present: Paul Cassel, Dick McGraw, Les Young and Tery McKee. City Attorneys
Bob Kiesz and Chuck Zimmerman. City Clerk, Peggy McArthur.
Meeting was called to Order by Mayor Don Crain.
Minutes of the previous meeting were approved as presented. Motion was made by
Paul Cassel, seconded by Dick McGraw and passed unanimously.
Bills and accounts were approved as submitted. Motion was made by Tery McKee, seconded
by Dick McGraw. Mayor Crain asked what account the voucher for advertising for a Code
Compliance Officer was to come out of. Tery McKee suggested the contingency fund.
After more discussion, Mayor Crain directed the City Clerk to pay the cost of advertising
out of the contractual fund that was budgeted for services provided by McConnell and
Burke. Mayor Crain stated that the advertising should come out of that fund as Tery
contacted them and the attorneys and was advised by them to run the entire ad. Tery
McKee claimed it was not their fault and that it was a misunderstanding. Also, Mayor
Crain said that Paul Cassel would have to sign the warrant to the Seattle P.I. as he
did not approve of the expenditure.
There being no further questions concerning the bills and accounts, the vote was taken.
It was unanimous to pay all bills submitted.
'Mayor Crain said the test for Police Chief would be given the first week of April by
the Civil Service Board.
The Council enacted to adopt Ordinance 397. Motion was made by Paul Cassel to adopt
said Ordinance relating to Civil Service Certification of eligible and temporary
appointments extending vacant positions, due to disability leave to 300 days. Motion
was seconded by Dick McGraw and passed unanimously.
Attorney Chuck Zimmerman said an Ordinance will need to be drafted for the position of
a Code Compliance Officer and that several ordinances will need to be amended that
have reference to Planning, Planning Commissions, Building Officials and Board of
Adjustment.
Mayor Crain questioned why the City needed someone to work four hours when in fact, only
56 permits were issued last year. Dick McGraw said he felt four hours could be well
spent and the person could be kept busy.
Mayor Crain asked the Council what fund they would use for the additional salary
for the Code Compliance Officer. Paul Cassel suggested that it come out of the
contingency fund. Mayor Crain said he thought it should come out of the McConnell
and Burke fund. Tery McKee said the position had nothing to do with McConnell and
and Burke.
Bob Kiesz said they will be a little hard pressed, but would try to have the
' necessary Ordinances prepared by the April 7th meeting.
Paul Cassel said he would like to review the applications received for the Code
Compliance Officer. Mayor Crain said he would like to consider local applicants first.
Tery McKee said they should consider all of the applicants and then try to choose the
best possible person for the position.

Chief Combs said he would like to see the City adopt a hydrant ordinance so developers
would know what the city requires and who is responsible for fire hydrants in the
future.
Mayor Crain said the City should upgrade the City's hydrants and it was suggested that
the fire hydrant issue be made a part of the discussion with McConnell & Burke at
the meeting March 24th.
Ron Combs said he would be happy to work with a committee to upgrade the hydrants.
There being no further business, Dick McGraw made a motion that the meeting be adjourned.
Seconded by Tery McKee and passed unanimously.
