ordinance vetted by committee<u></u><u></u></span></h1>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><b><span lang="EN">By Brandon Macz, Daily
News staff writer | Posted: Tuesday, February 26, 2013 12:00 am
</span></b><span lang="EN"><u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Considering an ordinance to make
housing and job discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender
identity a criminal offense in Moscow, Councilor Wayne Krauss asked City
Attorney Randy Fife where demands for more protections would
end.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><b><span lang="EN">Krauss asked rhetorically
whether someone bringing monkeys into a business and being refused service
would require a discrimination ordinance for monkey owners.
<u></u><u></u></span></b></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Fife laid out for the
Administrative Committee on Monday details of his draft ordinance. Under the
ordinance, an employer would not be allowed to refuse to hire or fire a
person for their sexual orientation or gender identity, or to deny an
employee advancement or training on that same basis. It would also prevent
businesses from refusing to serve a person based on their sexual orientation
or gender identity.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">On the housing side, refusal to
sell, buy or rent property or to repair, maintain or improve it would also
be prohibited if it were the result of such discrimination, Fife
said.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Exceptions include religious
entities, other governments and agencies, boarding houses, private clubs or
institutions and two-family dwellings, such as duplexes, where the property
owner or a relative lives in one of the units.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Krauss was curious about whether
businesses, such as restaurants, which often display signs indicating their
right to refuse service to anyone, could refuse to serve someone based on
their sexual orientation or gender identity without disclosing that as the
reason. Fife said if someone felt that was the reason for denial of service,
they could file a complaint under the ordinance.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">"I hate any kind of bullying
whatsoever, and discrimination is a form of bullying, in my mind," Krauss
said.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Krauss said he didn't like the
idea of the city being forced to react to a continuous list of
discriminatory grievances.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">"The question is, where does it
stop?" Krauss said. "Why doesn't the 14th Amendment cover the whole darn
thing?"<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">The amendment says "No State
shall deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the
laws."<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Fife said he prepared the draft
after reviewing laws already on the books in Sandpoint, Boise and Salt Lake
City and said he favored Boise's. The proposed ordinance would fill a gap in
the federal and state human rights acts.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Anyone believing themselves to
be discriminated against because of their sexual orientation or gender
identity would file a report with the Moscow Police Department, Fife said,
which would conduct an investigation and file a report with the city
prosecutor to validate whether the claim constitutes an offense under the
ordinance.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">If so, mediation would be
attempted between the two parties by the city attorney with the offender
facing a misdemeanor if a resolution can't be met. If the defendant takes
remediation steps, the penalty could be reduced to an infraction. Should
both parties settle, the charge would be dismissed.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">"You want compliance, not
punishment. That's the goal," Fife said, adding the criminal process might
do better in a separate council resolution.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Fife said pushes on the
municipal level could force the issue in the Idaho Legislature, which has
historically never passed an amendment to its human rights act covering
sexual orientation and gender identity out of
committee.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">"That's not going to happen, so
we'll continue to legislate morality," Krauss said.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">The draft ordinance will be
reviewed by the city's Fair and Affordable Housing and Human Rights
commissions before returning to the Administrative Committee to forward the
draft to the full council.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><b><span lang="EN">More Well No. 9
problems</span></b><span lang="EN"><u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">Public Works Director Les
MacDonald reported the recently reinstalled Well No. 9 pump and motor have
to be removed again after testing Friday knocked out power to the well
house. Once power was restored, a ground fault was detected, which means
something is short-circuiting the electricity being channeled through the
pump and motor, he said.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">"It means we're in a different
situation than before," MacDonald said.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">The pump was shut down in June
when it stopped functioning and the motor was sent to be repaired by Alstra
Technologies in Tempe, Ariz. It was reinstalled in late September, but was
shut down again when the electric current became too high and caused the
protection unit to shut it down. The motor was returned to Alstra and the
pump was analyzed by a Spokane company before both were tested by another
manufacturer in Arizona.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
<div style="margin-left:0.5in;"><span lang="EN">The pump and motor were
reinstalled in two weeks ago, but further testing in Moscow showed the
electric current was still too high and a "whale song" noise occurred when
it was reconnected to the system, MacDonald said. Following Friday's outage,
he said removal of the pump and motor by crane began Monday and should be
completed today. He added an outside consultant may need to be brought in to
determine the city's next move. Well No. 9 can produce up to 40 percent of
the city's water.<u></u><u></u></span></div>
