PUBLIC HEARING
March 25, 1986
The council met in special session at the Eagle Elementary
School, March 25, 1986, at 7:30 p.m. MAYOR CAROL HALEY presiding.
Those councilmembers present were: MAILE, GUERBER, MATLOCK,
MINOW.
The purpose of the meeting was to conduct a public hearing to
accept public input on a proposed application for a State of Idaho
Department of Commerce administered Community Development Block
Grant in the amount of $100,000 to construct a Senior Citizen
Community Center building and accessories.
Explanation of the project was given by Carlyle Briggs, P.E.
of B.& A.Engineers, Inc. Mr. Briggs gave the address .of the
project as 3rd and Idaho Street, Eagle, Idaho. He introduced a
drawing of the building, reviewed the cost figures of the project
and indicated that the application handbook and application were
available for public inspection.
MAYOR CAROL HALEY discussed the total amount of funds available
for small project grants this year being $3,058,774 and that
$271,000 of those funds were available for senior citizen facilities.
MAYOR HALEY also stated that the Ada County Commissioners have
indorsed our request, and that the Area 111 Council on Aging has
backed this request, as it has for several years, because there
has been a need to split Star and Eagle senior citizens facilities,
however; the f~nds have not been available to do so. The Mayor
indicated that for the number of senior citizens in the Eagle area
an Eagle Senior Citizens Community Center would attract those senior
citizens that are not currently able to participate or take advantage
of programs that would enrich their lives both socially and
nutritionally.
