(first consideration) Comment: Since its passage on May 19, 1978, the Housing Code has been field tested numerous times and has received close review by the Housing Commission, the Board of Appeals and City staff. This ordinance is a series of changes resulting from the enforcement experience and critical review process. The changes are in three categories. First, changes necessary to correct typographical errors and editing for clarity; secondly, changes in licensing establishing a Type III license that would allow rentals of dwelling units sharing a common toilet and/or bath facility, and thirdly, deletion of sections in the Code found to he in conflict with higher standards of City Code, obsolete or not required in actual practice in Iowa City.
