Fourth of July Parade

Reception at Victor City Art Gallery Celebrates Stef Schroeder.

Tetonia, Idaho resident, Stef Schroeder, has studied landscape painting for several years with a dedicated daily practice and focus since early 2023. Her current preferred mediums are oil paint and gouache.

Stef accredits her growing knowledge of art principles and painting techniques to workshops facilitated by artists including Robert Moore, Julie Davis, and Aimee Erickson. She has also been educated by world-renowned, local landscape painter, Scott Christensen through in-person workshops and his online course, Adventures of Painting.

The artist’s website, stefschroeder.com, is regularly updated with new works, and you can often see her paintings hanging along with other local artists at the Teton Arts Council Gallery, located in The Community Center in Driggs, Idaho.

I love to paint particularly Western Subjects. The things that make our valley so unique and beautiful: big skies with big clouds, mountain trails and country roads, fields of scrubby sage, and tall grass. My finished paintings come both from studies created in the field and photos snapped when inspired. Noticing the everyday moments in a beautiful place. Since painting landscapes, I often find myself driving home from town or hiking with a friend and thinking “Oh, that’s so beautiful! I want to paint that.”

The diﬃculty lies in simplifying an incredibly complex subject matter using the language of paint. I try to convey to the viewer what drew me to the scene. Was it the warmth of the light? The contrast of the cerulean sky with the ochre fields? The dense spring cumulus clouds? I reference the landscape masters of the early 20th century, including Edgar Payne, William Wendt, and John Carlson, for inspiration and clues to craftsmanship.

"Beauty is no material thing. Beauty cannot be copied. Beauty is the sensation of pleasure on the mind of the seer. No thing is beautiful. But all things await the sensitive and imaginative mind that may be aroused to pleasurable emotion at sight of them. This is beauty." ~ Robert Henri

A public reception will be held on January 21, 2025, 4-6 p.m.

Teton Valley Emergency Responders to host Wildland Fire Preparedness Event

Local community invited to join effort in reducing wildfire risk across Teton County on May 3, 2025

TETON VALLEY, Idaho, April 15, 2025 – As the snowpack in the lower elevations begins to recede and with summer right around the corner, it is critical to ensure your home and family are prepared in the event of a wildfire.

The Teton Valley Community Wildfire Preparedness event is a collaborative effort of local, state, and federal firefighting agencies; Teton County Fire and Rescue, Teton County Emergency Management, The Nature Conservancy - Fire Learning Network, the Caribou-Targhee National Forest and other partners. This event encourages residents of Teton Valley to prepare their homes and families for a wildfire by anticipating changing weather conditions, taking precautions on dry windy days and knowing how to evacuate quickly when asked by emergency responders.

Many residents living in high-risk wildfire areas want to take steps to increase their fire safety but are unsure about how to start the process. They can find the information they need to accomplish wildfire risk reduction projects around their home and within their community May 3, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Driggs City Plaza in Driggs, Idaho.

Through this free educational event, residents of Teton Valley can learn more about the importance of wildfire preparedness and planning, defensible space and how to get a home ignition zone evaluation. Additional activities include a visit from Smokey Bear, wildland fire trucks and free hot dogs and hamburgers, while they last.

Here are some actions residents can take to reduce the risk of homes and property becoming fuel for wildfire:

· Clear needles, leaves and other debris from roofs, gutters, porches, and decks.

· Remove all flammable outdoor items from decks and porches (cushions, door mats, and portable propane tanks).

· Firewood piles can ignite from wildfire embers and then ignite your home. Keep piles at least 30 feet away from buildings.

Utility rates, effective October 1, 2024. These adjustments reflect recent improvements in our infrastructure and changes in our regional partnerships.

1.     Water Metering: With the completion of our water meter replacement project, we can now meter water year­ round. As a result, the winter water flat fee has been eliminated.

o      Water: The rate will increase from $51.20 to $53.00 per month.

o      Sewer: The rate will increase from $61.04 to $98.50 per month.

Out of City Limits customers - 1.5x utility rate.

o      Water: The rate will increase from $51.20 to $79.50 per month (base plus usage).

o      Sewer: The rate will increase from $61.04 to $147.75 per month.

3.     Late Fee Penalty: The penalty for late utility payments will increase from $4.00 to $25.00 effective January 1, 2025.

We understand that the sewer rate increase is significant, and we want to provide you with context for this change:

Victor manages local wastewater collection while partnering with Driggs for treatment services. Driggs is currently upgrading its treatment plant to address regulatory requirements, including those stemming from Clean Water Act compliance issues. These essential improvements will enhance regional wastewater processing but will impact our shared costs.

Anticipating increased treatment costs at the Driggs plant, Victor explored building its own treatment plant but found the cost-value proposition unfavorable. Instead, we're actively optimizing our collection system to mitigate cost increases. However, Driggs' necessary plant upgrades will require a rate adjustment in FY25, with more increases over the next five years.

We appreciate your understanding as we work to maintain and improve our utility services. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the City Administrator, Jeremy Besbris, at jeremyb@victoridaho.gov or the City Treasurer, Jasmine Griffin, at jasmineg@victoridaho.gov.

RATE CHANGES

The City of Victor is applying for an Idaho Community Development Block Grant in the amount of $245,000 to make improvements to the City Park. Your participation in a quick survey will assist the city in prioritizing the use of grant funding. Community support and cash match are strongly encouraged to be more competitive in the application process. If there are any citizens who would like to donate to the project, please contact the city office at (208) 274-7082.

Victor Planning and Zoning Commission Openings

Victor, Idaho, July 29, 2024 - The City of Victor is accepting applications from community members wishing to serve on the Victor Planning and Zoning Commission. The Planning and Zoning Commission has one seat open for the remaining 2 years of a three-year term expiring in September 2026. The seat is appointed by the Mayor with confirmation of the appointment by City Council. To be eligible to serve on the Planning and Zoning Commission, applicants must have resided in Teton County, Idaho for at least two years. If community members are interested in serving on either board, they are invited to submit an application, c/o Michelle Smith, City Clerk, at michelles@victoridaho.gov; PO Box 122, Victor ID 83455; or at City Hall located at 138 N. Main St. Suite 201 by Thursday, August 29, 2024. Application forms can be found online at www.victoridaho.gov and clicking on ‘Inside City Hall’ and then ‘Apply for Committee or Board’.

The City of Victor is hosting a town hall on August 7, from 6-8 pm, to discuss the future of the Old Town Irrigation System. Most city residents are not part of the Old Town Irrigation System and, therefore, are not affected by system changes, including fee increases. If your June utility bill included an irrigation fee charge (and you are not a resident of Golf Vista Estates), then your property is served by the Old Town Irrigation System and you are strongly encouraged to take part in the August 7th town hall.

Q1: What is the purpose of the upcoming town hall?

A1: The town hall aims to gather feedback from Old Town irrigation users on the current system operation and to discuss options for future years.

Q2: What changes were made to the irrigation system rates?

A2: On August 23, 2023, the City Council approved raising the annual rate from $129.58 to $534.32 per acre to cover basic operating expenses of the irrigation system.

A3: The system has been operating at a deficit for years. The new rate is necessary to cover basic operating costs and necessary repairs as they arise. Any revenue not spent in a given fiscal year will be transferred to the fund reserve. Likewise, expenditures above revenue will be accounted for as a fund debt to be paid by the users in future years.

Q4: What options were considered before the rate increase?

Raise rates to cover operating costs (chosen option)

Abandon the system and implement water conservation measures

Q5: Will this rate increase fix all the system's problems?

A5: No, the increase only covers basic operating expenses. It does not address the aging infrastructure or prevent potential future cost increases.

Q6: What will be discussed at the town hall?

A6: We will review the current system operation, gather feedback on the rate increase, and discuss potential future options for the irrigation system. Affected property owners in attendance will be asked to take an advisory vote reflecting their preferences for the future of the irrigation system (affected property owners do not need to be registered voters to participate in this advisory vote).

Q7: How does this affect properties not on the Old Town system?

A7: Most city residents do not receive water from the Old Town system, so they are not directly affected by these changes or costs.

A8: Wednesday, August 7, from 6:00 – 8:00 pm Victor City Hall. The meeting will be recorded and posted to www.victoridaho.gov for those who cannot attend the town hall.

Q9: How were decisions about the irrigation system made?

A9: The decision followed a series of city council work sessions and budget hearings. These meetings were properly noticed and open to the public, and information, including the rate proposed and actual rate increase, was published in the local paper.

Q10: What if I can’t afford to pay my irrigation bill this month?

A10: If you cannot afford to pay your irrigation bill this month, please visit City Hall and staff will help you set up an interest-free payment plan.

We encourage all Old Town irrigation users to attend this important discussion about the future of your irrigation system. Your input is crucial in determining the best path forward.

For any questions before the town hall, please contact the City Administrator by calling 208.274.7082 ext. 7, or emailing jeremyb@victoridaho.gov. If you cannot attend this meeting but would like to participate in an advisory vote, please email michelles@victoridaho.gov, and we will send you a link to an online poll.

RAD INFORMATION: There is NO impact to RAD Service as long as you have your receptacles out by 6am!

There will NOT be any interruption to RAD’s service on either Thursday or Friday due to street cleaning. 

RAD starts trash and recycling collections at 6am, so we are re-routing our routes to put all the closed streets at the very beginning of each route… so the customers need to have their receptacles out by 6am.

Please note that our collection policy is that customers must have their trash and recycling out by 6am on the day of service. There is never a set time that we service customers since we often need to re-route, get stuck in snow, mechanical issues, etc. Unfortunately, there is not enough time in the day to go back because the receptacles were not out by 6am. We are required to be to the transfer station by 2:45pm Tues-Friday. Thank you for your understanding.
