“Well... Don't know if this will help you or not. I am Really excited to get this done. I really think that we need to get a better jail and Move it out of the downtown and all the reasons I just had a question about the connection fees as well and how that worked And I don't know that we have that answer yet. So is that kind of work into your motion?”

“In adopting versus accepting I guess Oh council president So I asked for some of the changes I appreciate you guys getting that done Some of it was just to be consistent with what we with the other wording in the document there had been a back-and-forth between adoption and acceptance also the message that we've been giving the community is that we are not a adopting a plan that we're putting into action. So it's more of an acceptance of the plan that was created that's now brought forward that's non-binding and that we can refer to if needed, but we're not required. So it just has a little…”

“Well, let's say the Whitewater Park or a convention center or a parking garage, would those things require a public hearing at least?”

“So our community can be assured that this document is not going to start any kind of project without whatever process it needs to go through for council. That's correct. Thank you.”

“Did you want to continue it so you can look it over? There's, I think there's three or four changes, one of which is a word and then one's just for consistency. Is there a reason why you weren't?”

“So just I also want to point out that the original Roger Brooks plan when talking about the plaza did not have a resolution at all and it was still used. My intention was to clean up language and make it consistent. The motion as written is to accept the... Let me go here. Consider resolution accepting the Envision Caldwell 2050 plan. It just makes it consistent. The intention is not to shelve it or push it away. There are a lot of things in this plan that I like, that I've heard good feedback on. I just don't want to have competing plans. We have a... regular comp plan we have a sub area…”

“I agree. This is not a fight. It's not an argument, and I don't know how it's going to be taken. I just think that we've been giving this message out since Roger came back in town that this is what it is, so let's just make the language line up with that.”

“If we're going to push it through with adoption to give it more teeth and do more, then we are doing exactly the opposite of what we've been telling the public for the past year and a half while Roger Brooks has been in town. We have said over and over and over and over again that this plan is a vision, that it is meant to assist us in conversations, that it is not going to be forced, none of that. So we've changed one word because the motion says what it says. Section 1 says acceptance. We're changing one word to make it more consistent. And instead, now we're saying that if we're going to…”

“All it says on here is consider resolution accepting the Envision Caldwell 2050 plan. I've added with the changes that we just talked about with the new document with the change of words, and it's resolution 185-26. Okay.”

“put this out there but I'll let you decide that I think at this point I want to go through with this motion and just kind of see what happens I my whole intention is just to stay consistent with what we've told the public that's all yeah I totally resent the idea that it's being said that we're lying to the public I've been to three of these presentations with Roger Brooks”

“I don't think that's Roger's intention. That's not what I'm talking about. he has said exactly what I'm trying to say tonight is that there's no force that it's just a vision. It's just a document. And then counselor Denver said that he wants to use the word adopt because it has more teeth because it gives more, I don't want to misquote him. I, that's the part I heard that it has more teeth. I don't know what else was said. I don't know why we have to have something that has more teeth when we've been telling the public all this time that that's not what it is. And so that's the part where I…”

“Thank you pause I just only wanted to say thank you to the fire department police permits for all you're doing during this Season Drove from Northern Idaho to back here and it was it's just awful all through everywhere So kudos to you and your teams for being out there and protecting our own city while that's going on Also the police department for lending a hand in Twin Falls. That was a very difficult situation for Everybody including the officers and I think it's very important when other agencies can come in and help alleviate some of the stress that those officers are probably also…”

“I just wanted to say that I share your concerns about trying to get the information out there accurately in the amount of time that we have. I would hate to do it and have it rejected and then try to do it again later because then, I don't know, people get tired of seeing it. I agree.”

“Um, I'm not sure if my questions should go to you or go to Haley. Do you have a preference?”

“Okay. Um, I appreciate the update very much. Um, so when we talked about the quiet zone originally, there was some concern about 21st Avenue and the 18 foot medium. Um, the only report we have is the one from Horrocks engineers that said, that the recommended median length is 100 feet there. And if we couldn't do that, we should not do the quiet zone in that area. So when we talked about that as well, and after I talked to the FRA, they had mentioned that the 21st Avenue crossing got a low score, but it was pulled through because the other scores on the corridor basically pulled it through.…”

“The score on 21st was like 48 or something like that, I believe. 4.8. 4.8?”

“Right. So all I'm pointing out is that the engineers in the Horrocks report said that it is not, if you can't extend the median, you should not put a quiet zone there because the risk of cars backing up on the,”

“Okay. So if we extend the median, then it's a million-dollar project, right? So, Haley, the thing I just want to make sure that we all understand is that if we want to extend the median and make a right in, right out, if we decide to do that at some point, that it's over a million dollars to do that project, and while they are separate projects, It sounded to me, and you can correct this, that the only way to extend the median is if we do that other project.”

“So I want to say one thing before I forget, though, that the issue in the report was that it, what did they say? They said that without the early warning that they felt like that was going to create a bigger problem. So just to sort of keep that in mind with this. Sure.”
City Council · Jul 20, 2026

“So right now we're just leaving the 18 foot median at 21st and that's that.”

“And then do you have any update on Linden? Some of the concerns were that when the median went in, it decreased the lane size and pushes the pedestrians out into the street.”
