Mission Statement

Mission Statement:

To protect members property from being compromised and infringed upon, and their quality of life being reduced by the proposed city of Idaho Falls power loop. As an association, members will unite in a cohesive effort to stop the city of Idaho Falls from constructing the power loop in a manner that has a detrimental impact on member's property. It is not intended to prevent the city from delivering power as they see a need, but to have that accomplished in a manner that would have minimal impact on county residents and at a reasonable cost to the city power department and rate payers.

It is interesting that Idaho Falls Power has not gone to the county for a Use Permit.  The construction of transmission lines are allowed in a A1 zone but a permit is required before beginning construction.  It will be difficult for the city to satisfy all the points required for the permit if they do not have property acquired.  The city has been unethical during this entire process and now again attempting to trick land owners into giving an easement before they even have the permits necessary.  While knowing that they cannot even get the permits unless they have the property, what a scam.   All of this is happening with the blessings and knowledge of our elected officials.  It is time for a change!!
