Nibley debates proposed business park By
Julie Sulunga NIBLEY -- The City Council once again debated whether to vacate plans for a proposed business park at Thursday's meeting. A concern was property owner and resident of Nibley Dave Poulsen not having an easy access road to his place of business, Councilman Scott Wells said. A solution was brought up that possibly Matt Nielsen could sell the property from the road to Poulsen's property, so that Poulsen could have his business right by the road. Developer Matt Nielsen and Poulsen were not at the meeting to discuss this option. Nielsen has dropped out of the business park project because of the council's previous decision not to vacate the plans. Poulsen was hunting in Wyoming, said developer Zan Summers Councilman Lynn Welker made a motion not to vacate, but strongly urged the parties involved with the business park to come to an agreement about where the road would go. If anything, the city can make this decision without Nielsen's involvement because the three make up roughly 60 percent of the land ownership, said developer Alan Spendlove. In other business, the council approved drilling a water well near the reservoir in Nibley. The city has approval for this well as a back-up well. The well will cost the city $372,000. It is 90 days away from the beginning of drilling. The money from the well will come from the city's water impact fees and a USDA loan of $272,000, with the city having 40 years to pay it back at 5 percent interest. Nibley will no longer be liable for cut cables when construction is done. The city has joined the Blue Stakes Organization. Blue Stakes requires all construction workers to call before they dig for anything that has to do with gas, electrical lines or telephones.
