Christmas In Victor

Reception at Victor City Art Gallery Celebrates Trish Pushaw

Victor, ID - July 15, 2024 - The community of Teton Valley is invited to join the Victor City Art Gallery in celebrating local artist Trish Pushaw with an exhibit and sale of her paintings. On Tuesday, August 6 from 4pm to 6pm, the City of Victor will host a reception and open house in the Victor City Gallery on the second floor of the US Bank building at 138 N Main Street, Victor.

View “Wild Embrace,” Trish’s insightful collection of wildlife paintings for sale now through September 30. The collection features an array of iconic animals from the area. In response to the untamed creatures which cohabit this valley alongside us, Trish embraces the capricious nature of watercolor. Often beginning with an uncontrolled splash of paint, skillful brushstrokes transform the splattered surfaces into faces of familiar wild fauna. 

Peering from the walls are a menagerie of wild things which stand witness to the “soul nourishing” landscape of Teton Valley. Foxes and larks, magpies and wildflowers take form amidst sprays of color. The paintings capture the diverse moods of our surrounding scenery. Trish believes we must learn from these animals by embracing our wild heritage rather than trying to tame it. 

Trish’s artistic style developed from experiences in nature around the globe. Beginning in East Africa and continuing in Ireland, her parents taught her to appreciate the outdoors and to respond to it with art. Her passion for wildlife art prompts her to continue that tradition now that Teton Valley is her home.

The Reception and Sale provides an excellent opportunity for the public to meet the Patricia. Originals and prints are available for purchase. All community members, art collectors, and art enthusiasts are encouraged to gather for refreshments while supporting local art. 

Trish Pushaw’s work is also available online at https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/patricia-pushaw

Contact Trish at signalmountain54@gmail.com

The Victor City Gallery, located in City Hall at 138 N Main Street, Unit 2, is dedicated to promoting and showcasing the diverse talents of local artists, with a commitment to fostering a love of the arts.

Local Artist Displays at City Hall

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.

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.

Victor City Council approves design plan for 90-unit Sherman Park development

Read the original post from Buckrail.com. 

Victor, Idaho — A new affordable housing project, nearly two years in the making, is moving through government approvals in Victor. 

The Design Development Plan and Lease Option Agreement for the Sherman Park housing project were approved on March 13 by the Victor City Council. The development aims to create 90 units across four three-story buildings on more than three acres at the corner of Baseline Road and Agate Avenue. 

A similar lease option agreement was previously signed by both parties in April 2023 but has since expired. The new lease option agreement was signed on March 13 and expires March 31, 2025.  

According to the staff report, “the primary purpose of a lease option agreement is to allow the parties the opportunity to thoroughly assess the feasibility and viability of a potential project, in this case, the Sherman Park Workforce Housing Development, before either party commits to a long-term lease.” 

The property is located on about three acres, about five miles from the Wyoming/Idaho state line. Photo: City of Victor staff report 

Sherman Park is a three-acre property owned by the City of Victor and located off of Idaho Highway 33, about five miles from the Wyoming/Idaho state line. 

Last May, the City rezoned the property from Parks and Recreation zone to Commercial Mixed-Use to make way for the project. 

The project is a public-private partnership with the City of Victor providing the land for a proposed 99-year ground lease at no cost. Snavely Property Company LLC was awarded the developer bid in January 2023. 

Along with the zero-dollar 99-year lease, the City of Victor has also agreed to provide permit and fee waivers and reductions, valued at just over 10% of the estimated project cost. 

The Idaho Housing and Finance Association granted the project a $4 million financing award, as long as the project creates 23 units priced at 80% of the area median income (AMI). The loan expires Dec. 31, 2024. 

AMI is calculated annually by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and is the midpoint of an area’s income distribution. Below are the income levels governing the Sherman Park Project. 

According to the Design Development Plan, the 23 units at 80% AMI are 14 one-bedroom units, six two-bedroom units and three three-bedroom units. At 100% AMI and 120% AMI, there will be 10 one-bedrooms and six two-bedrooms each. 

Sixteen one-bedroom units and 19 two-bedroom units will be available at market rate, with no deed restrictions. 

See 80% AMI unit rates with price breakdown per square foot below:

(14) 1 bedroom$1,414670 sqft $2.11 per sqft

(6) 2 bedroom$1,698995 sqft 1.70 per sqft 

(3) 3 bedroom$1,9611,222 sqft$1.60 per sqft

100% AMI unit rates with price breakdown per square foot: 

(10) 1 bedroom$1,767690 sqft $2.56 per sqft

120% AMI unit rates with price breakdown per square foot: 

(10) 1 bedroom2,121700 sqft $3.03 per sqft 

(6) 2 bedroom2,547995 sqft $2.55 per sqft 

The developer initially proposed an additional $200/month parking and storage fee for all of the units, but the Council added a condition to its approval that requires, “validation for parking spaces for AMI restricted units” and another, “delineating all costs and fees beyond rent associated tenants fees.” 

Six other conditions were also added, including no short-term rentals and the requirement of an annual occupancy rate report. The Council also outlined that if a tenant does not meet workforce qualifications, but meets the other qualifications (ie. has lived in Teton County for over a year), that tenant will not have their lease renewed if a workforce-qualified applicant is on the waiting list. 

The two other conditions require more language about a daycare center/multi-use space and the free use of amenities for tenants, such as a spa or fitness center. 

Other conditions of approval for the developer include adding a second access driveway, realigning the crosswalk at the intersection of Agate Ave and Baseline Road and design elements such as awning heights, lighting and trash and recycling enclosures. 

Council Member Amy Ross cast the lone vote against the action items related to the Sherman Park project. 

According to the staff report, Snavely Property Company LLC and City staff will work to finalize the development agreement and ground lease. The items will again come before the City Council for approval. Following that approval, utility and building permits can be submitted for review and approval.

Local Artist Unveils New Works of Art at Victor City Art Gallery Reception

Victor, ID -  January 24, 2024 – The Victor City Art Gallery is delighted to extend a warm invitation to the public for a special Reception and Open House honoring the talented local artist, Claire Peery. Join us on Tuesday, February 6th, from 4 PM to 6 PM at the Victor City Art Gallery, located on the 2nd floor above the US Bank at 138 N Main Street, Victor. 

The art show and sale continues through March 31 showcasing Claire's current series, titled "Anglers and Avatars," which explores the intricate world of fly fishing enthusiasts in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE), with a special focus on Teton Valley’s fly fishing culture, celebrating the profound connection between humans and the surrounding ecosystem.

The exhibit includes a selection of fly fishing enthusiasts, both professional and amateur, each intricately portrayed through an ink rendering of their favorite hand-tied fly and a charcoal portrait. Claire's eye for detailed craftsmanship and her commitment to storytelling through art result in a compelling homage to the intersection between humans and nature.

“The creators of fishing flies adhere to the functional requirements of beguiling fish. Yet the resulting fly is a beautiful, utterly human means of interacting with the natural landscape. The fly becomes a weaponized puppet, serving as the angler’s avatar in the water. By uniting worlds of sportsmanship and fine art, Anglers and Avatars highlights that both disciplines spring from the plight of our soulful selves engaging with the surrounding world.” explains Claire about her project.

Claire Peery's artistic exploration began in the North Georgia mountains, and her journey has taken her to various corners of the United States. Holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from the University of Georgia, Claire has left her creative imprint in Georgia, Colorado, and now in the picturesque landscapes of Teton Valley.

This Reception is open to the public, and we encourage art enthusiasts, community members, and supporters of the arts to join us for an opportunity to meet the artist, and enjoy refreshments and light bites.

The Victor City Art Gallery, located in City Hall at 138 N Main Street, Unit 2, is dedicated to promoting and showcasing the diverse talents of local artists, with a commitment to fostering a love for the arts.

Due to hazardous blizzard conditions, the City of Victor suspended plow operations. Wind and blowing snow made plowing not only futile but dangerous. The County was also forced to delay or suspend its plowing.
