Subject: Cultural Arts request to remove Constitutional Framed Pictures
Date: December 6.2025 at 1:55 PM ViA7
To: electedofficials@cityofeagie.org
Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council,
I was reviewing the City Council Agenda for December 9th when I noticed the request to
remove the Constitutionally framed documents from the lobby of the City Council
Chambers.
I want to express my strong sentiments regarding these documents. They were acquired
during my tenure as Mayor when I attended the National League of Cities, and they hold
immense significance beyond being decorative pieces. They embody the foundational
principles upon which our nation was built. Many visitors to our City Hall, including those
testifying or experiencing government classes, such as our Boy Scouts and students
from Eagle schools, benefit from engaging with these important documents.
I firmly believe these documents should remain in place and not be relocated to lesser-
visible areas within the Council Chambers. They are placed in a space where we
conduct the business of our citizens in Eagle and deserve to be prominently displayed
for all to appreciate.
In lieu of relocating these important documents, I would suggest considering the
relocation of our Arts Commission's paintings and other artworks to the Community
Center hall. This facility has ample space and could potentially serve as an art museum
for rotating exhibits in the future. With the growing number of citizens—both young and
old—utilizing the Community Center's large room, this shift would benefit the Cultural
Arts and allow for greater appreciation of local art.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope you will consider my perspective on
keeping the documents prominently displayed and exploring the potential for our
community's art in the Community Center.
Respectfully Submitted
Nancy Merrill

Subject: Art in City Hall Lobby -- Missed opportunity for America 250 ++
I am an Eagle resident and unable to attend the December 9 City Council meeting where the recommendation
from the Art Commission will be presented.
I am adamantly opposed to moving copies of the Declaration of Independence and other documents in order to
make the City Hall lobby more convenient for displaying more local art.
The city of Eagle has an opportunity to become one of the most patriotic cities in the Northwest. The name of
the city, Eagle would make this obvious. The time is now, especially during the America 250 Celebration.
The Idaho America 250 Commission encourages Idahoans to "Actively Promote activities that will honor and
recognize the principles and foundational thoughts that emerged during America's revolutionary period and
which we all aspire to today (2024,HCR 31)"
There is display space in the library or in the Parks and Rec addition and my adding a gallery it would
encourage more people to use those facilities.
Putting any type of art above or on the same wall as our founding documents is not appropriate.
The City of Star has moved on many patriotic items including naming parks and roads with an American history
them.
Garden City has the founding papers prominently place in the council chambers which are also use for lectures
and classes coordinated by the library.
Moving our founding documents from ( or around) the City of Eagle lobby, especially in this next critical year
must certainly be an oversight of the Art Commission proposal. Instead we should make the documents larger
as we celebrate our country.
I am unable to attend the December 9, 2025 City Council meeting. Please consider this my official opposition
letter. I am a member of several patriotic non profit organizations 501(C) 3 which prohibits us from making
political statements. Since this is a proposed"art"project I hope it is treated such and not become political.
Thank you,
Donna Smith Burns, Resident
Eagle Idaho since 2014

AUDIO RECORDING
BETWEEN FORMER CITY TREASURER SHARON BERGMAN AND FORMER MAYOR NANCY
MERRILL
Recorded November 22, 2019
Length 1:29:43
RE: COLLUSION, CONSPIRACY,AN FBI INVESTIGATION AND HOW IT EFFECTS
EAGLE ELECTIONS TO PRESENT DAY
Back Story:
Sometime prior to November 22, 2019, it is alleged that former Mayor and Council Member—
Elect Nancy Merrill entered City Hall and privately asked Sharon Bergman whether she had
been contacted by the FBI. A conversation followed, and Sharon—unsure what Nancy was
referring to—agreed to meet for lunch.
Feeling uncomfortable with the situation, Sharon approached the mayor at the time, Mayor Stan
Ridgeway, along with City Attorney Victor Villegas and her personal attorney. It was decided
that Sharon would attend the planned lunch and legally record the conversation with Merrill. The
resulting recording details events and individuals associated with Merrill,then Mayor—Elect
Jason Pierce, Kevin Zasio (who filed the FBI report, as confirmed in the Idaho Statesman), and
others.
Both Council Member Mary May and Council Member Craig Kwame allegedly had ties to
Pierce's campaign at the time, as well as to Kevin Zasio and his efforts to cast doubt on Mayor
Ridgeway's re-election campaign. Their efforts also allegedly called into question the entire City
Council over the purchase of The Landing property,which—under newly elected Mayor Jason
Pierce—was ultimately sold to Zasio's neighbor's son, Brad Dillon, the son of Dennis Dillon.
It is alleged that ACHD Commissioner and current City of Eagle Council Member Mary May
stalled improvements to The Landing property by delaying and removing from the agenda an
item regarding the vacation of a cul-de-sac used by the property as early as September 2019.
This was allegedly done in support of Pierce's campaign. Complaints filed with both ACHD and
the City of Eagle confirm her role. At the ribbon-cutting ceremony, City of Eagle officials stated
that she said, "Mayor-Elect Jason Pierce intends to sell the property,"on December 20, 2019—
months before he took office. Rumor has it that Mary May was a strong supporter of getting
Council Member—Elect Nancy Merrill elected, and that May intends to run for mayor in 2027.
Council Member Craig Kwame has served on the Two Rivers HOA Board as a Director since
2017. During the same time, and as part of Pierce's campaign,the plan was to end a lawsuit over
a disputed parking lot in the Two Rivers subdivision, located outside the residences of Kevin
Zasio and Dennis Dillon. The City of Eagle filed an appeal with the Idaho Supreme Court, and
during this period, it is alleged that Director Craig Kwame, along with President Kevin Zasio,
physically removed the disputed parking lot while the case was under Idaho Supreme Court
appeal. Ultimately, the City of Eagle prevailed in the case;however,the parking lot was never
rebuilt, nor were legal fees recovered.
