City Explores Options for Renovating Dog Pound The unacceptable state of the city dog pound facility has been the subject of a number of discussions lately, particularly with the City Council. Sheriff Arne Jones had brought the issue to the City’s attention at the end of last year, as the temperatures dropped and the situation for dogs in the facility had become untenable. The City contracts with the Sheriff to enforce its animal ordinance, which includes the impounding of stray animals.

As remedies for the situation have been sought, Emily Christiansen has temporarily opened her boarding kennel for a number of dogs who have been in need of impound. Over the last several months, Christiansen has housed a total of 5 dogs in need of temporary space.

City Superintendent Tyler Webster visited the current facility to take a look and see what might be done.

After an inspection, he determined that some immediate temporary improvements could be made to make the situation more humane for animals, though in the longer term the facility would either need to be substantially renovated or replaced.

Webster has begun the process of obtaining bids for a replacement structure, which would replace the current one on the same foundation, but be updated to more adequately heat and pro-

vide water to the resident animals.

At present, the building has been repaired to a state where it is capable of holding animals in need of impounding.

The building is supplied with electricity, which allows for the use of portable heating devices to be used in keeping the temperature to a more comfortable level. However, the lack of substantial insulation in the walls, as well as the necessary egresses to the outdoor kennels make the cost of heating the building under the current conditions high.

The water to the building is currently only available from an outdoor faucet, and must be ported into the facility through the mud which has begun to surround it.

In general, use of the facility is not ideal for either the officers in charge or the animals involved, especially when attempting to manage anxious or aggressive animals. As a result, the city has committed to moving forward with the more ambitious project to replace the facility.

When a new structure is secured, Webster plans to run the water line directly into the building, and set up automatic watering resources, as well as a more efficient heating setup.

The outdoor kennels have potentially seen the most wear, as a number of the structure’s metal elements are corroded through exposure to dog

waste and the elements.

Some of the bars have in fact been completely rusted through. A new kennel setup will include galvanized materials, and be coated with a spray that prevents urine from adhering to the surface and creating the corrosion problem.

As to the general layout, Webster explains that an eventual replacement structure would be matched to the current foundation and essentially be the same, except “new, insulated, and much better for the animals.” Webster is also looking into fencing off the location of the pound to prevent cattle from wandering through, which increases the mud problem, as well as decreases the overall sanitary nature of the surrounding area.

Once the facility is fully stocked with food and resources, Webster also notes the need to secure it firmly against pests like racoons.

The current dog pound facility has existed at the location for over twenty years. The number of stray dogs picked up varies from month to month, but the facility has seen fairly regular use over the years.

Speaking on the issue, Malad City Mayor Joan Hawkins stated that “the City is committed to moving forward with this project. It’s something that probably should have been a long time ago, but now that it’s been brought so clearly to our attention,

we plan to get it done.

We absolutely need a place for these animals to be safe and warm.”

If you are interested in contributing to the con-

struction of a new dog pound facility, you can contact the city offices and contribute to the “Malad City Community Foundation,” which

is a 501(3)c entity. Any donations to the Foundation are tax deductible, and can be designated to specific projects, such as this one.

VALENTINE’S SWEETHEARTS 2022: Frank and Gayle Madsen Of all the many couples in the county who were mentioned as a great story for the February Sweethearts edition, Frank and Gayle Madsen came up most frequently. The Enterprise reached out to the people who know them best—their family—for the story of their love. It turns out that in this case there are two separate stories, presented here for your consideration!

The story of how they met and their early dating was recounted slightly differently by the couple.

Frank’s version: “The first time I remember seeing Donna Gayle was at Scott Service a long time ago. I was sitting in the back of the store with my dad. I am guessing I was only about 10 or 11 years old. As I was sitting in the back with my dad and a few of the other farmers from around the valley in walks this little red-headed girl to buy some penny candy from the candy cabinet, I remember Khalil waiting on her. I did not know it at the time, but I guess I was staring at this cute little redhead.

After she left the store, man, did I get a lot of crap from those farmers for staring. You probably won't believe this, but I had a strong feeling that someday I would marry her. That is a pretty strong feeling for someone my age. Did I share this with anyone else? Nope, I kept the feeling to myself.

After a while, I forgot about this encounter until I got into high school. Then one day, I saw Gayle walking back from the Seminary building, and I think I blushed a little bit, but again I did not let anyone know.

One evening my friend Terrell called and asked if I would give him a ride out to Warren Edwards' so he could see Carol Anna, Gayle's older sister. He had just

wrecked his car and had no wheels to get around, and of course, I said sure. Terrell went in, and I stayed out in the car; oh Lord, was it ever fancy, an old 1948 Chevy fleet line. Well, while Terrell was in the house, he had to blab to a couple of girls that were in the house, Donna Gayle and Linda, about how down and out I was because I had no girlfriend. Well, the next thing I know, these two girls came running out of the house and almost tore the screen door off. Well, Gayle beat Linda to the car and got in the front seat and snuggled right up to me, and made Linda sit in the back seat.

Well, the rest is history; we dated for three or four years. I graduated from high school in 1963, and in May of 1965, we got married. Oh my goodness, where did that 57 years go. We still love each other as much now as we did when we first started dating.”

Gayle’s version: “I met Frank through Terrell Jones. My sister Carol had a date with Terrell, and when he came to pick her up, I had a friend Linda Nielsen visiting, and when Terrell told us that Frank Madsen was sitting out in his car, we almost tore the door off the hinges and ran to the car.

Valentine's Day Gala and Virtual Auction On Friday of last week, the Oneida Crisis Center and a number of volunteers hosted a drive through version of the Valentine’s Gala at the Senior Center.

For the second year in a row, the event was held as a drive-through event due to health considerations.

The event, which cooked and distributed 150 hot meals as part of a their yearly major fundraising event, was a massive success. The virtual auction, which began on Friday, ended on Tuesday.

A number of people were involved in the event, including the Crisis Center Board and staff, as well as a number of other contributors. According to the Crisis Center’s Marcia Stocks, “At this point, it’s a pretty well-oiled machine.” Drivers who visited the Senior Center to collect their meals during the hour it ran experienced average wait times of about five minutes, which was certainly worth it. The meal featured roast beef, prepared by Stephanie Crowther, as well as salads, barbeque chicken, potatoes from the Iron Door Smokehouse, rolls

from Nancy and Buddy Asay, and a white cake dessert courtesy of the Higleys.

The auction, which began online later the same evening, immediately began bringing in bids. By Tuesday, the items had been heavily bid upon.

As of Tuesday morning, the total amount raised through the auction was $6,334 dollars.

Funds raised from the event go directly to the clients of the Crisis Center, rather than any administrative or executive overhead, and help keep the Center and Carol’s Pantry running during the year. The Gala is one of the largest single fundraising events of the year for the Center, and Teresa Tubbs stated positively that “It’s going great so far!”

The Crisis Center also included a sponge with the slogan “And you don’t even have to do the dishes!” printed on it, a box of chocolates, and an ice scraper with the meals.

In addition to the Crisis Center staff, Board members, volunteers, and other helpers, the Crisis Center was also supported by the

Senior Center, who hasn’t charged for the use of their kitchen facilities for the last two years. Typically, the gala involves an in-person dinner and silent auction. Next year, the Center fully plans to return to an in-person event again, with the possible inclusion of a Valentine’s dance.

February is also Teen Dating Violence Awareness Month. The Crisis Center will participate in this national month of education with an informational table set up at Malad High School on the 24th of the month.

April is Sexual Violence Awareness month, and the Center will be bringing professional speaker Jessie Funk to address parents, students, and anyone else interested about issues related to the increasingly relevant subject of sexual violence both within and outside relationships.

Funk holds degrees in psychology and theatre, and is pursuing a doctorate in Social Work. She has been speaking as a keynote speaker for over 15 years.

VALENTINE’S SWEETHEARTS 2022: Frank and Gayle Madsen Continued from front page

Linda and got in and sat

by Frank, and that's how it all got started. I never dated anyone else. One day at school, a good friend was talking to me, and when Frank found out, he stuck his head in a snowdrift, and every time we have a class reunion, Khalil reminds Frank of this.

Terrell and Frank came to pick Carol and me up for a date one night, and Stan, my oldest brother, was home on leave, and they didn't come to the door but honked the horn.

Stan stepped out on the

front porch and said, my dog is not home; needless to say, we stayed home, and they always came to the door after that.”

Afterwards to Present Frank and Gayle have lived all of their married lives in Malad, where they have worked and raised their family. Gayle has worked various jobs, but her most important job was always raising her five girls and supporting their many activities.

Her home has always been immaculately kept, and she taught all her children to clean and take care of their own homes.

Frank worked for Scott’s

Service until 1972 when Malad High School hired him to teach the Auto Mechanics program, which he did for 33 years.

During his teaching career, he was also the MHS Wrestling coach for 15 years, the bus supervisor for 27 years, and operated his own mechanic business.

Both are active members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They have served in many positions and organizations, including Bishop, High Council, High Priests, Sunday School, Primary, Young Women’s and Relief So-

ciety. They served an 18-month service mission to Adam-ondi-Ahman, Missouri, from March 2009-September 2010.

For many years, they were the camp managers of the Camp Ho-Nok Campground located in Soda Springs, Idaho.

They have five daughters: Debbie and Curt Hill (Grace, Idaho), Paula and Ray Davis (Malad), Kathy and Paul Hubbard (Malad), Tricia and Jesse Allen (Lehi, Utah) and Shenell and Bo Clark (Malad). They have 15 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren that they love very much.

Frank and Gayle love to spend time with their family. They both love to camp and hike, with many fond memories of taking their five girls to Redfish Lake, Idaho. They taught their girls to enjoy the outdoors with many trips to the Samaria mountains and North Canyon to hike and shoot guns. Gayle loves to crochet, read and garden. Frank continues to be busy with his own mechanic business, but when not working, he has restored three classics--a 1950 Chevrolet pickup, a 1961 Chevrolet Panel truck, and a 1945 McCormick-Deering Model A

tractor.

For anyone that knows Frank and Gayle, you know they still enjoy sitting by one another when going for a drive. Frank and Gayle have not had a lot of time to travel but have enjoyed trips to Redfish Lake, Hawaii, a cruise to Alaska, and trips to Arizona.

Frank and Gayle’s children and grandchildren are very thankful for the many lessons on how to work hard and enjoy the great outdoors. Frank and Gayle have been the perfect examples of loving one another unconditionally.

Emily Christiansen’s Kanine Korner Emily Christiansen has always loved dogs. Growing up in a rural community, she has fond memories of a childhood surrounded by animals.

From the golden retriever and Austrian shepherd of her youth, she is now the proud owner and trainer of several standard poodles, a border collie, and a pair of pugs.

All of this has given her the patience and experience to deal with an average of 8 dog groomings a day, as well as sometimes more than 20 additional boarded canines.

So when the city decided it needed an interim location to house stray dogs while it arranged to renovate the dog pound, Emily Christiansen was their first contact. The owner of Malad’s Kanine Korner, Christiansen has dedicated her professional life to the care of animals, and most specifically, dogs.

A Malad native, Emily has been back in town for fifteen years after some time pursuing her education at USU, as well as time training through a long certification process involving a 2 year apprenticeship. She is currently certified by the National Dog Groomers Association of America. While it is not technically required to be nationally certified to practice as a dog groomer, Christiansen explains that she “wanted C Y

M K

to do it the right way.”

Dog grooming involves a great deal of specialized knowledge, including a specific understanding of the differences between breeds.

Some dogs, for instance, have hair (which is longer in length and less likely to shed), and some have fur (which is shorter and sheds more often, especially during the winter months). Hair, because it grows, requires a higher degree of maintenance. She has used her skills on her own dogs, making them over as minions, pirates, and a range of colors.

In addition to being a master groomer, Christiansen is also involved with competitive dog shows, including a number of events such as Rally, Confirmation, “Fast Cat” (where dogs chase a cat lure for speed testing), and Barn Hunt (where dogs have to locate rats which are hidden in hay bales in aerated tubes).

She also works with the 4-H Dog trainer class, something she has done since she was a child. During the Fair, Emily serves as a judge for the Dog Show events. Additionally, she teaches Obedience classes in Ogden with the Golden Spike Obedience Club.

Kanine Korner is also the primary professional dog boarding facility in town.

Christiansen explains that

holidays and vacation times are her busiest of the year.

“Spring break, summer, graduation…I had 22 dogs in here just this last Thanksgiving,” she says. While some times of the year are busier than others, “it’s really rare that I don’t have at least one dog in here.”

Boarding requires a knowledge of animal health and safety as well. In her studies, Christiansen has learned such things as how to perform Animal CPR. Because dog’s hearts are located to the side of their chest compression are usually performed with the animal on its side.

Breaths are administered via the snout, rather than the mouth. For anything major that occurs with the animals, Emily contacts vets in town.

She is not licensed to give shots, and part of the boarding agreement insists that animals have proof of vaccinations before being taken in. This helps to prevent the spread of any disease or infection and keep all the kenneled animals safe.

In every case, Christiansen gives each dog boarded with her its own personal attention. She requires those boarding their animals, for instance, to bring in the dog’s food from home to avoid causing any digestive stress.

She is also happy to send

Emily Christiansen, owner and proprietor of the Kanine Korner, demonstrates the grooming table

pictures or videos of the dogs to their owners. “Especially for those who are sometimes nervous about how their dogs will do around the others.

It’s helpful for them to see them playing.”

As the vacation/holiday seasons are the busiest times for Kanine Korner, Christiansen advises booking well in advance. “I already have reservations for September,” she says. “But definitely, spring break is coming up, and you should already be calling if you need to board for that.”

With regard to taking care of pets during the cold months, Christiansen stressed the maxim that “if it’s too cold for you to be

outside, that’s true for your pets too, especially dogs that are mostly used to being inside.” If your pets do spend extended time outside during the winter, she suggests that a proper shelter to shield them from the wind is a necessity.

She recommends that anyone who leaves their dogs at home overnight have a neighbor or relative check up on them. But she also suggests that boarding is a very good idea for any dog that might be left for any extended period of time. “It’s as much protection from mischief as anything.”

Kanine Korner is open from 9am-5pm during the week, and can be contacted at 1-208-406-4204.

OLYMPIC RECAP Megan Nick scored the bronze medal in the Women’s Aerials after teammate and four time Olympian Ashley Caldwell fell on the landing of her final jump, dropping her from medal contention. Megan Nick, a competitive gymnast turned skier, had little expectations in her first ever Olympics and was simply relieved to have landed her jumps, let alone land on the podium.

In the debut year of the Women’s Monobob, Team USA swept first and second place as Kallie Humphries and Elana Meyers Taylor won gold and slider medals, respectively. Kallie Humphries has previously won gold medals in the Two-Woman Bobsled event and with her most recent win, now stands as the bobsled-

ding gold medal leader.

After skating together for eleven years, Madison Hubbell and Zach Donohue won the bronze medal in the Ice Dance event in the final skate of their careers.

Erin Jackson made history as the first African-American woman to take home an individual Olympic medal as she won the gold medal in the Women’s 500m Speed Skating. It was also the first USA gold medal in the event since 1994. Jackson laced up her skates to step out on the ice for the first time in 2016.

USA Mixed Snowboard Cross team, Baumgarter and Jacobellis, won gold in the Olympic debut of the event. This was Barmgarter’s first ever medal in his four

Olympic games, also becoming the oldest snowboarder to ever medal at the Olympics.

The gold medal was Lindsay Jacobellis’ second medal at the Beijing Olympics, also winning gold in the Women’s Snowboard Cross event. Jacobellis also made history as the oldest American woman to win a medal at the Olympics.

The ski trio of Ashley Caldwell, Chris Lillis and Justin Schoenefeld beat out China for the gold in the Mixed Team Aerials debut event. Their gold medal is the first gold medal in aerial freestyle skiing for the US since 1998.

Nathan Chen of Salt Lake City won the gold medal in the Men’s Singles Figure Skating event with a 22 point margin, accomplishing his child-

hood goal of becoming the world's best male skater. Chen is the 7th American man to win the Olympic gold medal in the men's singles competition.

With a 94 point run, Chloe Kim took home the first place medal for team USA in the Olympic half pipe, making her the first ever Olympian to win back to back gold medals in the women’s half pipe.

Colby Stevensen from Park City won silver in the Men’s Freestyle Bigair event.

Colby has overcome several setbacks in his career including a significant car crash in 2016 where he fell asleep at the wheel and rolled his vehicle.

His injuries included several fractures to the right side of his skull, several vertebrae in neck, his jaw, eye

Changes to 300 E for drivers in town Anyone driving past the intersection of 300 E and Jenkins Avenue in town will notice that the north/south stop signs have been removed.

The change is intended to provide a more convenient access route for trucks coming in and out of town, to alleviate the presence of trucks going through the middle of town.

While the immedi-

ate effect of the change should be to increase the efficiency of traffic on the north and south routes, it does mean that drivers entering the road from the stop signs on Jenkins need to exercise added caution when turning onto 300 E. As this road is most frequently trafficked by high school students and parents, the need for careful and safe driving

is doubly important.

Although visibility along the road in question is generally quite good, drivers do need to be conscious that there is no expectation for drivers with the clear right of way to slow or stop at the intersection.

Stop signs have been removed on the north and south lanes at the intersection of 300 E and Jenkins Avenue. Drivers are urged to be cautious

COUNTY COMMISSION MEETING 2/14 New Canyon Road Issues A large number of citizens came to speak to the Commission about various safety issues related to New Canyon road.

Whereas most Commission meeting feature a handful of speakers across the duration of the meeting, over a dozen residents appeared to present their concerns to the Commissioners.

Chalae Teeples began by expressing her concerns about the safety of drivers on the New Canyon road.

Some suggestions for improving driver safety were decreasing speed limits, adding speed bumps, and/or incorporating signage for blind corners on the road to the subdivision. There are at least 23 homes in the New Canyon subdivision area, as well as a number of out of area drivers who use the road to access the Forest Service area through the same dirt road.

Another issue mentioned is that the school bus does not have access to the subdivision, and kids are not always safe walking up from the bottom of the road.

Commissioner Christophersen asked for clarification about what sort of options New Canyon residents were requesting to improve the road’s safety. Teeples suggested potentially widening some portions of the road, adding a guardrail against one side of the hill, improved signage, or possibly filling a ditch near the bottom of the road to increase the road’s width.

Currently, there is one speed limit sign on the road, listing the speed as 30, though residents explained that many drivers exceed that limit routinely. The residents also felt that the 30 mph speed limit was too fast for the blind corners on the road. Sheriff Jones explained that generally a road study was performed prior to changing a speed limit on a county road.

Another item up for discussion was whether or not the school bus was able to drive up the road to drop off kids, rather than at the bottom of the hill where many parents felt the situation was too unsafe. The Commission did not feel that widening the road all the way up to the houses was feasible in the near term. Chairman Lewis stressed that his primary immediate concern was addressing the safety concerns at the bottom of the hill.

Max Tavoian addressed the Commission C Y

M K

to reiterate his longstanding attitude that the subdivision presents a number of problematic issues for drivers and residents of the area.

He suggested dropping the speed on the curves of the road from 30 to 20mph, along with strict enforcement. He felt that parents needed to do a more consistent job of being on time to pick up their kids from the bus stop. He pointed out the frequent lack of courteousness on the part of drivers.

According to the original county decision about the New Canyon road, improvements to the road must come from a road improvement district, which would be paid for by property owners over a span of time. The last time an improvement district for the road was proposed, it failed by vote to by implemented.

Tavoian suggested the cost of undertaking a road improvement on the roughly 2.6 mile road would be substantial, and would have to be partially funded by increases in taxes from a created local improvement district. He also presented evidence that the road in question was not a county road, but rather a right of way to federal land above the subdivisions. Over time, the expectations of the homeowners for the maintenance on the have changed. Tavoian presented quotes from the original subdivision developers which indicated acknowledgment that many of the plowing and road issues were willing to be assumed by the property owners and developers.

Road Supervisor Diana Dredge addressed the issue from the perspective of the Road Department. She mentioned that the ditch at the bottom of the road was intended primarily for water drainage, which might create additional problems were it to be filled in. Since the road is technically not a county property, Dredge did not see a way to widen the road as a county Road department the way things are currently constituted. Tavoian said that the county would need to buy the properties in question in order to expand the road.

Chairman Lewis asked Diana Dredge and Bob Christophersen to specifically look into the issues related to the road itself and the bus stop situation at the bottom of the road.

Sheriff Jones asked residents for a specific time to target the road

for ticketing enforcement, with limited personnel resources.

Juvenile Justice Report District 6 Liaison Stace Gearhart presented his annual juvenile justice report to the Commission. Juvenile arrests have increased slightly from the previous year, though the overall number is still very low. The numbers of juveniles admitted to detention has decreased, as it has across the state.

Gearhart discussed the success of the diversion program, which provides alternatives to detention for offenses. The average profile of a juvenile offender on probation in Oneida county is a white male 14-16, which is fairly typical across the state, though the 78% male demographic is high. 132 hours of community service was performed last year by juveniles in the county. The recidivism rate in the county was reported as 17%, which is very low.

Simulcast Racing A lease agreement was presented to the Commission regarding a potential arrangement with Midnight Racing in Ada County. The company would like to lease Oneida county’s simulcast license in exchange for 1% of the gross receipts generated. Oneida county will first need to apply for the license, and then lease it.

County Attorney Cody Brower included a number of protections for the county in the agreement, including a provision that if the county decides to broadcast races, Midnight Racing will carry them, and that the lease can be discontinued with a year’s notice if the county determines the agreement is not being honored. The Fair Board was granted permission to pursue a simulcast license, with the understanding that it ultimately would be leased to Midnight Racing in the future. The Commissioners motioned to accept the lease agreement and the motion carried.

Cherry Creek Subdivision Rhonda Neal presented the final PLAT and subdivision agreement for the Phase 1 of the Cherry Creek subdivision. The agreement was approved and signed by the Commissioners.

R&B Camera Systems Diana Dredge spoke to the Commission about a bid for cameras around the Road and Bridge building. The cameras would serve the purpose of both deterring

any vandalism or theft at the department itself, as well as the surrounding area. The Commission motioned to approve a camera system for the R&B department for $1,250. The motion carried.

Gifting of Industrial Park Road A legal description of the short road the county is gifting to the city was presented by the Road Department. The status of the road itself came into question with regard to the number of potential claimants, including private, city, and county interests.

Attorney Brower suggested that the proper process was to “assign the easement” which had been granted to the county to the city. He further suggested that a document backing up the easement assignment would also be important to the process. The Commission determined to delay making any formal motion on the issue until the assignment document was drafted for the next meeting.

Whitaker Contractor Agreement An official agreement with Whitaker Contractors for their temporary location in the 2 Mile area during the construction of the Water Treatment facility. The Commissioners had questions about whether the agreement was specific enough in its coverage of liability. For instance, the agreement doesn’t spell out specific discussion of spilled chemicals or oil. The agreement does stipulate that Whitaker will restore the area in question at the completion of the project, including the road from the temporary site to the project area.

The temporary access agreement was approved by vote and signed.

Sheriff Vehicles Sheriff Arne Jones reported that the office has one vehicle that is inoperable and needs to be disposed of through auction. The Sheriff discussed potential vehicles for use by the Probation office.

Sheriff's Report Several officers have completed their post certification, and another is currently in the post certification process. The Commission requested a report detailing the incarceration and duration figures from the last year. The Sheriff said he was working on the report and it would be ready soon. At present, the county has two inmates, which are being held in Caribou county.

Another inmate is currently being held in Ban-

nock County, but will be transferred to Oneida in the fulfillment of a warrant after serving out his sentence in Bannock.

The Sheriff reported ongoing issues with the radio system, which goes out “once a week, at least.”

Emergency Services Dan Williams spoke to the Commission about possible avenues for current Emergency Planning grant funds. The 2020 grant has $11,937 remaining, which is good until June of 2023. The 2021 grant, which has over $18,984 remaining, is good until April of 2024.

An ARPA grant has been used to purchase a quad band radio for the Sheriff’s office with a county cost share of $2,800.

The Hazard Mitigation plan, which is currently being developed by an outside contractor, is on track for completion by March or so. This is a plan which is necessary to have in place in order for the county to apply for FEMA and other federal funds for hazard mitigation.

Building Inspector Report 1 building permit was issued in January, for a manufactured home with a detached garage. Research has been done on a number of issues that have emerged throughout the county, including mobile homes in remote areas of the county, and regulations for AirBnB homes. Rhonda Neal reported that more than 15 minor subdivision applications have been picked up from the Planning and Zoning office. 2 PLATs for subdivisions are currently in the works for the area near St John, with a third under discussion. None of these subdivisions have come before public meetings at present. Udy reports a high number of permits being sought across the county.

Modification to holiday pay The Commission discussed changes to holiday pay, with the tentative understanding that any changes most likely wouldn’t go into effect until October in order to prevent the changes from having their current year’s budget affected.

The central issue is the way that unscheduled emergency work will be affected by the current pay guidelines.

It was felt that the two departments most affected by the policy changes would be the Sheriff’s office and the Road and Bridge department. Both of these departments are essentially unable to predict when they might

be called in to work during holidays, especially during the winter months.

County Cell Phone Policy Most county’s compensate employees who use personal cell phones to conduct county business.

In surrounding counties, the average is between $40-$60 a month for the compensation. The 2018 Oneida County cell phone policy created a stiped for cell phone use, but the policy was not adopted by the Commission at the time.

Essentially, the policy allows for an employee to either use a county cell phone (which is subject to public records issues), or to be compensated for the use of their personal phone. A similar policy will be worked on and put into effect by October. A finalized version of the policy will be presented at the next Commission meeting.

Williams Subdivision PLAT map/subdivision agreement The Ohana subdivision agreement has been examined by the Planning and Zoning Commission, Attorney Brower, and the Building Inspector, and recommended for acceptance. The points the Commission had required before acceptance were the establishment of an escrow account as well as the widening of a road and establishment of fencing to meet county development standards. The Commission approved the PLAT map, escrow agreement, and the subdivision agreement for the development.

Treasurer New Treasurer’s office employee Rachel Clark was in attendance and introduced to the Commission. She will be taking on a part-time position with the office.

The Treasurer’s office also took the chance to discuss billing/taxing to properties for solid waste collection in situations where the property does not contain a habitable building or structure.

The issue affects properties with assessments that include structures, which are entered into the special fee district for solid waste fees. In some cases, the structures have changed status (for instance a building which has burned but still standing) to “uninhabitable” but not been updated with the assessor’s office. The County advises property owners to update the status of their properties in such situations to provide the most current information to the Assessors office.

School Board Meets; Valedictorian and Salutatorian Named The monthly meeting of the Oneida School Board was held on Tuesday, February 8, 2022, with all members present. Tresie Carter participated via Zoom.

Lindsay Waldron, a teacher at Malad Elementary School, was honored as the School District “Employee of the Month.” (See accompanying article.)

The following personnel were approved, pending their passing the State-mandated background check: Natalie Jensen Reiss as a teacher at Malad Elementary School; Dalacie Scott and Jaden Davis as night cleaners at Malad High School; Delaney Garrett as a special education bus aide; Samantha Wilson as a cook at MES; and two teachers for the Idaho Home Learning Academy. An alternate route to content specialist was approved for Natalie Reiss.

The following Malad High School coaches were approved, pending their passing the back-

ground check: Coby Crozier as Malad High School football coach; Bo Clark as head baseball coach with Garren Atkinson, Ty Price and Billy Peabody as assistant coaches; Billy Kimberling as head track coach with Craig Buttars and Beth Bastian as assistant coaches and Tylee Skinner and McKay McKinnon as volunteer assistant coaches; and Christie Schow as head softball coach with Bree Adams, Aysha Mattox and Arlene Shulz as assistant coaches.

The building administrators presented short reports. Ms. Sarah McIntyre, Principal of Malad Elementary School, said how successful the Missoula Children’s Theater production of “Alice in Wonderland” had been in teaching students about theater arts. She also reported that the “Invention Convention” had been very successful. She noted that only two of the Elementary School teachers had fewer than two years of ex-

perience.

Mr. Robert Hannah, Principal of Malad Middle School, reported that the Middle School student body and class officers had attended a leadership activity at Idaho State University. The students toured campus and learned about college activities. The Middle School students have gone on half of their scheduled ski days with only a few injuries reported. The Valentine’s Day Dance will be on the Thursday before Valentine’s Day due to the 14th being a ski day.

Mr. Michael Corbett, Principal of Malad High School, announced that Sam Pickett will be the valedictorian and Colton Ihler will be the salutatorian of the MHS Class of 2022. Named as the Top 10% are Clara Huckaby, Maggie Willie, and Savannah Young, Carina McCullough. Mr. Corbett reported that MHS students earned 110 credits through the dual enrollment program last semester and that stu-

dents are enrolled in 94 dual enrollment credits this semester.

Mr. Jon Abrams, administrator for Stone School, reported that an ice cream social had been held at the Stone School to recognize students for their achievement.

The suggestion that the 4th grade remain at the Stone School instead of coming into Malad next year has been made to Mr. Abrams; the Board will get more information from parents and discuss this issue further.

Jeannie Reeder, Assistant Principal for the Idaho Home Learning Academy, announced that registration for next year will open on February 14. Live intervention classes are being offered, and 300 students are participating. According to recent surveys, the student satisfaction rate for grades K-8 of IHLA is 9.1 (of 10), and for IHLA high school the satisfaction rate is 4.4 (of 5).

Superintendent Abrams noted that the enrollment in IHLA is much more

stable this year than in the past.

Superintendent Abrams reported that legislation just passed by the State that allows teachers to participate in the State insurance program will assist small districts like Oneida in recruiting and keeping teachers because teachers and their families can be included in the health care insurance plans, thus saving teachers hundreds of dollars each month.

Mr. Abrams has met with Jared Lusk of Construction Services, Inc. and discussed the need to hire an architect to design an elementary school and a practice gym and auditorium at the high school. The locations of the proposed new buildings and ball diamonds have yet to be determined. He will meet with representatives of the County and the Fair Board about the possible proximity of school facilities to the fairgrounds and the advantages that may be possible for both

the School District and the fairgrounds.

The Board approved the school calendar for 2022-2023. Next year’s calendar includes two days of professional development prior to Fair Week and on the Monday of Fair Week, one fewer day off at Christmas, and no Presidents’ Day holiday. Mr. Abrams will work with the Fair Board to ensure no conflicts with the County Fair in the future.

The Board approved holding the Supplemental Levy election in May for the same amount as two years ago: $290,000.

In answer to Board member Kirk Willie’s question about the need for a supplemental levy, Mr. Abrams reminded the Board that the Levy is necessary to pay for upkeep on the buildings and ensure that teachers receive the materials and equipment they need. The contracts for all school administrators were approved for one year.

credit that is refunded to Idaho residents so long as they file their annual state taxes. In essence, it gives back to Idahoans their grocery tax while collecting and utilizing funds from out of state travelers and visitors.

Several other states across the country tax consumers on food and grocery. Kansas, Oklahoma, Hawaii and South Dakota have similar programs to Idaho where they carry a grocery tax equal to their state sales tax but also provide an annual tax credit. Alabama, Tennessee, Virginia Utah, Arkansas, and Missouri have a reduced food tax rate without any rebate. Some states such as Mississippi and Nevada have a straight sales tax on all consumer items without any tax reduction for food items or tax credits.

The Idaho Legislature has recently been debating amending the tax credit, some saying the credit should be increased other saying the grocery tax should be repealed entirely. While on the surface it may

seem to save Idahoans money, the truth is that they would pay it, one way or another.

The funds from the grocery tax provides the state of Idaho a stable and predictable revenue to make state budgeting more reliable. Although the revenues become part of the general funds, the grocery tax funds are used in budget areas such as education, health and human services, public safety and as well as other miscellaneous needs. Repealing the tax credit would severely restrict the funding in these categories. It is estimated that the education budget alone would be reduced by $21.5 million. Such a reduction in revenues might necessitate an increase in other taxes such as income or property taxes rather than forgo the funds for those budgets vital to Idahoans.

Repealing the grocery tax and its credit would disproportionately benefit households across the state as it is dependent on how much each household spends on food

items. Households that eat out more or buy costlier foods are likely to see greater tax reductions but households that spend little on eating out or less on groceries would see little to no tax reductions, possibly even having to pay more in taxes without having a tax credit.

Currently, residents receive $100 per individual. This means that for myself, my husband and four children, we are credited $600 annually.

Doing the math, it means I would have to spend more than $10,000 annually or $833 monthly on groceries, movie snacks and eating out before I would spend more money in taxes than I would receive in credit.

However, the possibility for an increased tax credit is a real possibility.

February 19, the house moved to pass a bill to boost Idaho’s grocery tax credit beginning in 2024. The proposed in-

crease of $20 still doesn’t seem enough for many representatives or their constituents, especially with inflation on the rise. Rep. James Ruchti, a Democrat from Pocatello commented how he would also like to see more tax relief on groceries but also reminded that just earlier in the legislative session, it was voted to approve $600 million in income tax relief, spending approximately one third of the state’s surplus.

Idaho residents can take comfort that their frustrations over rising costs have been heard and that through various means, their legislature is attempting to alleviate the strain. While simple easy answers might be hard to come by, we are seeing progress towards better solutions, especially for those individuals and households that are in need of the most relief.

AG THOUGHTS

By Allison Eliason Superbowl Sunday just might have come at a greater cost for fans across the country as they gathered to watch the game or maybe just the commercials and half-time show. Whatever they were watching, it likely came with a side of spendy snacks.

In an interesting article

by Wells Fargo, the cost of game days snacks were compared to the previous year and found that regardless of the goodies, game-day eats across the board would cost more.

Prices for some sides like chips, vegetables and dips only had a 1% increase. Soft drinks have also seen a price rise, up 6% for canned sodas and 12% for 2-liter bottles. Party staples like chicken wings, shrimp and steak saw a price hike as high as 26%. Other meats such as pork chops, cocktail wieners and hamburgers averaged a 12% increase.

These figures might seem a little shocking,

but the truth is that we have seen the grocery bill come in higher first hand. Over the last several months, inflation has been rearing its ugly face as consumers have taken to the grocery stores, the highest it has been in 40 years.

Like other shoppers, Idaho residents have been hoping for a quick fix to moderate their rising grocery receipts and with the talk of repealing Idaho’s grocery tax, it seemed that such a solution might have been found. But as Idahoans dig a little deeper, trading out the grocery tax to keep a little extra money in their pockets, might not quite be as simple as it seems.

Idaho, like many other states, carries a food tax. This grocery tax includes all food purchases at supermarkets, restaurants, fast food chains, or even food at the movie theater. In Idaho, food items are taxed at the same level as all other items, 6%. As a means to offset sales tax on groceries, the state provides a grocery tax

Lindsay Waldron Named School District Employee of the Month Lindsay Waldron, long-time teacher at Malad Elementary School, was honored as the Oneida School District “Employee of the Month” at the regular meeting of the School Board on Tuesday, February 8. Ms. Sarah McIntyre, Principal of Malad Elementary School, read the following letter of nomination for Lindsay: “Lindsay is always dependable and willing to take on any responsibility asked of her. She completes the task to the best of her ability and with a positive attitude. Whenever there is a call for help, Lindsay is one of the first to jump in. Lindsay supports her col-

leagues, especially those who are new to the school. She collaborates with her team and other staff members to help provide the best possible experiences for our students.

“Lindsay’s collaboration, willingness to try new things, and dedication to putting forth the extra effort ensures that ALL students are successful.

She creates an engaging and inclusive environment. She has high expectations and works hard to help her students meet them. I have seen her end one lesson, complete a new seating arrangement, and begin another lesson, with 100% of the students on task

in under five minutes. Her classroom management is masterful.

“Lindsay Waldron is deserving of this recognition, and I am grateful every day for the opportunity to work with her and see the wonderful effect she has on our students. She is a credit to the Oneida School District. She always puts the students first and exemplifies what an outstanding employee is.”

In recognition of the honor, Lindsay received a gift card, a copy of the “Starfish” poem, and a plaque, which will be displayed for the next month at the School District Office.

CITY COUNCIL MEETS 2/9 The City Council met on Wednesday of last week.

Property Near Walking Path Elden Dattage has been determined to be the owner of a piece of property which is currently on the City’s walking path. This has apparently resulted from an unclear map used during the initial laying out of the walking path. Dattage is willing to donate the property to the city, but has requested a value statement about what the property is worth so that he can be credited with the value of the donation for tax purposes.

There is a question about what steps are required in order to allow for this arrangement.

For instance, an appraisal of the individual property in question may be necessary for a fair evaluation of the property’s true value. The idea of potentially swapping other city property for the park property was raised, though this may also present some obstacles. Dattage himself remarked that “from the beginning, our idea has to make this as convenient as possible. We just want you all to be able to go on with what you need to do as easy as possible.” The particulars of the arrangement are being examined.

City Property on 100 West and Highway 38 The city owns just over 32 acres of property at the south end of town on 100 West and Highway 38. The property has been discussed a number of times recently, in terms of what the city would like to do with it. The property has been appraised at nearly a half million dollars in value, although there was some feeling that the value might be higher were it re-appraised.

One option, of course, is to simply hold on to it as it will undoubtedly increase in value over time. If this city decides to pursue a sale of the property, its main options are to 1) sell the complete property to a developer, or 2) sell parcels of it off at different times to various purchasers. The developers who have spoken with the city are primarily interested in developing the property into lots for sale, which will result in payments to the city C Y

at the time of individual sales. If the city were to sell the property off in pieces, each piece would require its own public sale process.

In either case, the city is required to hold auctions for the sale. Developers would need to bid against one another for the property, for instance, and each individual smaller piece would also require a bidding process. While the city has no immediate need to sell the property, the underlying idea is to use a long term development and zoning plan to create a purposeful plan for development down the road. The Council opted to further explore the issue, rather than rush into any decision.

Co-op Building Plans The city has contacted designers to look at renovating the Co-op Building for its potential use as a City Office suite in the future. The hope of the city is to convert sections of the main floor for use as a Council Chamber and administrative offices. The developer who toured the facility expressed some concern with the layout of the room, which includes large, structural pillars that would create difficulties with seating and visibility. A discussion of potentially using the “red room” at the west end of the floor as the primary meeting room was discussed as an alternative, as well as using the second floor.

The second floor area, while suitable in terms of space, presents a problem of ADA compliance. At present, there is no functional elevator to provide access to the second floor, which is required under Idaho’s Opening Meeting Law for public meetings.

It was determined that the City Council would attempt to meet with the designers during a time when the members could tour the building with them, sometime toward the beginning of March.

Some other issues related to the Co-op building include the idea of potentially opening the ground floor up to commercial space--such as a coffee shop or gift shop—and the need to remove the paint on the exterior of the building before painting could happen.

Kevin Hatfield, owner of the re-

cently restored Harkness Hotel in McCammon suggested that the total cost for a painting project of that size would probably range from $150K-&175K, and that testing to determine how to approach the project would typically run $2,500, which the Council took under advisement.

July 4th The City mulled over the allocation of 4th of July events. There was some discussion of turning the Park events over to the Chamber of Commerce, though there was some confusion of the status of the Chamber of Commerce moving forward into 2022. The Council decided to speak with Chamber members before moving forward with any scheduling decisions.

Business Licenses Two business licenses were granted by the Council. Chad Call’s License for a business called Twisted Iron was approved. His business involves welding, sprinkler repair, knife sharpening, snow removal, and other repairs. A business license for Joe David Hunter’s repair/ contractor business was also approved.

Ordinance 488 Ordinance 488, which officially replaces Ordinance 443 regarding water usage in the city was approved by the Council. The changes to the prior ordinance give the city latitude to set the water restrictions and penalties for failing to follow them on a yearly basis. Each year, the city will set restrictions and penalties through a resolution. This will also allow the Sheriff’s Office to add water violations to their electronic ticketing system.

Dog Pound Tyler Webster reported on his visit to the current dog pound facilities. He reported that the building does have access to power and water, though some of the structural

components have been deteriorated due to time and rust. Webster has reached out for bids to perform the necessary repairs at the location.

The need to potentially add fencing surrounding the location to keep cows out was also discussed.

Downtown Traffic Concerns Due to a number of public incidents and ongoing concerns about truck traffic near Hess Lumber, some possibilities for limiting or managing said traffic were discussed. The possibility of setting limits on the number of large trucks and/or time limits on their occupancy of the street were discussed.

Planning and Zoning New Chairperson Shelly Williams addressed the Council, and updated it on ongoing research with regard to

some of the issues that are currently facing the city. One issue involves ordinances that govern the construction of townhouses and twin homes in the county. Williams also suggested that she was looking into the issue of Home Owners Associations (HOAs) as they are currently covered in the city code.

Superintendent Tyler Webster reported that the city’s water inspection reports have come back clean, which is good news. While Webster await his water inspection license to be finalized, the City has secured a water tester for the short term.

By Dotty Thorpe Evanson Are you a Comfortable Person or a Beautiful Person? It is sort of like mayo or salad dressing; theme park or keep me away from anything with crowds. You get the idea. There is no middle ground. Elle is a CP (Comfortable Person).

Hadley is a BP (Beautiful Person). One is not better than the other, only different. Kind of like blond and brunette.

If you take longer for breakfast than getting ready, you are a CP. If you roll your eyes at stumpy fingernails, you are probably a BP. I hadn’t thought too much about CPs and BPs until the other day when Elle refused to wear jeans. She has always had jeans, but rarely wears them. I’d never thought much about it, but the laundry was piled up and she was down to jeans.

She refused to put jeans on. Her dad used his best marketing skills to convince her to wear them.

It didn’t work. When he finally listened to her, it

boiled down to, “Jeans are hard. I don’t like hard pants. I want soft pants.”

So, do you fight the good fight and get those jeans on her? Nope, you choose your battles, and you are never going to win this one. Comfort is wired in her DNA. Grandparents, you need to understand this. If you are a mayo person, all the talking in the world is not going to get you to choose salad dressing for your sandwich. If you are a comfortable person, you are not going to wear jeans if you think they are hard.

So, what did Elle do?

She wore a dress that day.

What do you do to Live the Good Life? First of all, decide if you are a CP or a BP and then be true to yourself. If you are the authentic you, it will be much easier to accept the Comfortable and the Beautiful People around you for what they are, and that’s Living the Good Life! Have a great week you Beautiful and Comfortable People.

DRAGONETTES The Dragonettes this year had an incredibly fun and successful season. All the competitions this year were earlier than in previous years so they had to get ready to go quickly.

The first competition was December 4th in Pocatello at the Idaho classic dance competition. At all the competitions as well as district and state the 2A dance is combined with 3A, so these girls compete against larger schools everywhere they go. In Pocatello they earned second place in the Dance, HipHop, and military categories and third place in the prop category. Bailey Timothy and Hunter Olsen both competed in the solo category. Bailey placed 5th overall and Hunter placed in the top 12.

Their second competition was January 14 in Preston at the battle of the border. They are in third place in prop, dance, and hip-hop, and fourth place in Military. This Competition was a good warm-up for state because they ended up competing with big teams we usually don’t see until the end of the season. Bailey Timothy, Sydney Carey, and Rayleigh Barnes all performed solos at this competition. Bailey placed 2nd, Sydney placed 4th and Rayleigh placed 5th.

Normally district competition takes place in the middle of February, this year District was January 28. The girls placed 1st in HipHop and Military, and 2nd in dance and prop, which qualified all dances for state competition. Also, Rayleigh Barnes got 5th place in drill down against all the other teams and Alexis Shaw got 6th.

Charli Briscoe, Alexus Tarbet, Rayleigh Barnes, Brylee Clark, and Hunter Olsen all received academic awards as well.

They ended up placing 3rd in HipHop, and 4th in Dance, Military and Prop. They are so proud to be bringing these trophies home to proudly display in the high school.

“The girls have worked so hard this year. The schedule didn’t allow for much of a break before competition season started and they were always willing to work through new changes and go to extra early morning or Friday practices.

They are really such great girls to coach.

Even when things get tough, they figure out the solutions and work together to make it happen. We started competing against big teams right from the start this year and they never let that get them down. I’ve also been really impressed at how well they work together. Our seniors have been great leaders and the whole team really supported each other all season. “ The Dragonettes get a few weeks off to rest and start back up with their spring show on April 11th and then tryouts sometime in May. They were coached this

would really like to thank the community and school for all they do. It truly does make a difference and help

so much to know that we have so many people who are willing to support us throughout the year.

CHEERLEADING The Malad High School Cheerleaders just returned home from Boise at the Idaho Dance and Cheer State Competition where they brought home a 2nd Place in the Show and Stunt Group, 6th Place in the Pom Division and 4th Over-All in the 1A/2A Division.

They competed against the top Teams from all over the state of Idaho in the Show, Pom and Stunt group Divisions.

Members of the Stunt group was Callie Jensen, Shyanne Cherry, Tayson Davis, Graycee Goddard and Rylie Walton.

It was a busy month getting prepared for State. The Cheerleaders were supporting their Dragon Basketball and Wrestling Teams and sometimes had four events in a week with a Competition on top of that. We used each game as a practice to try and get ready. It was a little tough on the Team with their Season being moved up over a month.

District is usually when we competed at State then State would follow in March. We had to be ready in December with all our routines, on top of a busy schedule cheering at games.

I was so proud of them for what they brought to

the mats at State. They all worked so hard to be the best they could be and fell short by only a few points in the Show and Stunt division for 1st Place. They had a large crowd there to support them at State, which was greatly appreciated. This has been such an amazing and very determined team and I will greatly miss the six

Seniors we are losing this year. They will be hard to replace where some are four-year veterans. The Team is now done for the year until the Dragonettes Spring show where they will perform at one last time.

Tryouts for next year will be in April and then we will start all over again for the new year.

MHS Cheer placed 2nd in Stunt, 6th in Pom, and 4th Overall in the 1A/2A Division
