ADJOURNMENT * Speakers are asked to limit remarks to five minutes and wait until after everyone has had the opportunity to speak once before approaching the podium again on the same topic PAGE 3 Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee August 18, 2014 Page 1 MINUTES DRAFT AD HOC SENIOR SERVICES COMMITTEE AUGUST 18, 2014 — 3:30 P.M. HARVAT HALL, CITY HALL Members Present: Joe Younker (Chair), Jay Honohan, Rick Dobyns, Jane Dohrmann, Mercedes Bern -Klug, Ellen Cannon, Hiram Rick Webber Staff Present: Geoff Fruin, Marian Karr, Steve Rackis None CALL TO ORDER: Chairperson Younker called the meeting to order at 3:30 P.M. CONSIDER MOTION ADOPTING CONSENT CALENDAR AS PRESENTED OR AMENDED: a. Minutes of the Meeting on 07/30/14 — Younker noted that Karr has some revisions to the Consent Calendar. She stated that there is additional correspondence from Eve Casserly, which Members received as a late handout, and that on page 3 of the minutes, the first full paragraph where it talks about MECCA's buildings, it should be "Community Mental Health Centers" buildings. b. Correspondence — (1) Charlotte Walker; (2) Eve Casserly (late handout) Honohan moved to accept the Consent Calendar as amended, seconded by Dohrmann. Motion carried 7-0. DISCUSSION OF SENIOR CENTER EVALUATION SUBCOMMITTEE REPORT: Younker thanked Bern -Klug, Webber, and Honohan for their work on this report. He asked if any of the subcommittee Members had anything further they would like to add at this point. Dohrmann stated that she appreciates the report that the subcommittee has developed, and thought it was very thorough. Cannon agreed with Dohrmann's statement. Younker asked if there are areas that Members would like to see included in this report or if any further information is needed. Cannon noted that previously it had been suggested that they draft an assessment tool or tracking tool that could be used at the Center - between now and the time the Committee finalizes its report - that could possibly obtain information from non-members who are participating at the Center. This might give them a better idea of how many non- members take advantage of the Center's programming. Younker asked if the Center currently has the ability to track usage of non-members. Honohan replied that he believes it would be very difficult to do this. He added that when they have their special events, for example, a lot of people attend from the community and there would be no way to know specifically who is a member and who is not a member. Dohrmann stated that perhaps they should accept this report, as submitted, and then make some recommendations regarding this issue and how tracking might be carried out in the future. Bern -Klug added that the instructors who teach PAGE 4 Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee August 18, 2014 Page 2 classes at the Center do count how many are attending. Younker asked if, on the registration form for classes, participants are asked if they are a member or not. Bern -Klug responded that for some classes this information is requested, typically when there is a different cost for non- members versus members. Younker suggested that this information be obtained by the subcommittee prior to the next meeting — what information is currently being tracked and how difficult would it be to pull that together. Bern -Klug asked for some clarification on this, with Younker stating that the information desired is how many non-members are participating in Center programs. He added that perhaps the first step would be to ask the Senior Center what information they are capturing now, and how difficult it would be to get this information to the Committee. Once they have this, Younker added that they can then decide what further information is needed. Bern -Klug stated that the survey included current members and also anyone who receives the Center's list of classes, which would include non-members. Honohan moved to accept the draft evaluation with appendices as noted, seconded by Cannon. Motion carried 7-0. REPORTS FROM CONTACT MEMBERS RE: LOCAL AGENCIES / CONSORTIA: Elder Services — None. HAAA — Cannon stated that she does not have any further reporting at this point, but that she did do some research in response to Larry Roger's inquiry at the last meeting. This shows up on page 9 of the agenda, third paragraph. Roger's had inquired about how many of the service providers in Coralville and Iowa City provide direct in-home care versus those who provide adjunct services through their offices and facilities. Cannon added that she excluded independent living, assisted living, and long-term care, as well as hospitals and clinics, from her search. JCLC, 25 of 92 of their remaining providers, or 27.17%, provide in-home services. For HAAA, 32 of 100 service providers, or 32%, provide in-home services. JC Livable Communities — (See above comments.) Shelter House — None. Pathways — None. Consultation of Religious Communities — None Free Medical Clinic — Younker stated that he has received information from the FMC and will have a written report for the next meeting packet. Approximately 38% of the patients seen at the Free Medical Clinic are over the age of 45, according to Younker. People with Medicare and Medicaid are typically not seen at the Clinic. About half of the budget for the FMC comes from United Way and Johnson County. They have received help from the City in the past, according to Younker, approximately $7,000 or $8,000 over the past few years. Dobyns asked if this won't be a shrinking demographic now that the Affordable Care Act has been implemented. Younker stated that there are a lot of under -insured patients that are and will be seeking treatment at the Free Medical Clinic, even with the ACA in place. MECCA — None. JC Mental Health — None. PAGE 5 Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee August 18, 2014 Page 3 VNA — Honohan noted his late handout to Members on the VNA, adding that he wonders if the VNA is really in their purview. He summarized the information he obtained, stating that home health care is provided by health professionals, skilled services to homebound elderly and disabled. These services are primarily paid for by Medicare, Medicaid, and medical insurance supplements, including the new federal insurance program, the Affordable Care Act. The VNA also has home healthcare aides, for help with shopping, laundry, etc., for elderly and disabled, which is not financed by insurance programs. The VNA hosts community health clinics throughout Johnson County for citizens 60 years of age and older, including blood tests, blood pressure, and foot care. The Senior Center is one of the sites for these programs. Honohan continued, giving some of the specifics of the health clinics, as far as days, times, and costs. He expects to receive additional budget information from the VNA, as well. Honohan added that Mercy Hospital has a similar program for home healthcare, but they do not provide the shopping and laundry type of services. Honohan questioned though if this is a program that this Committee should be reviewing, since the bulk of its services are covered under insurance. He added that these programs do provide a lot of help to the elderly and he believes them to be very important. It was noted that the Iowa City Hospice is similar in nature, in that much of the services are covered by insurance. Compeer — Dobyns noted that he did receive some information earlier today but that he sent it back to Compeer with a series of questions. He added that he did this with MECCA and Johnson County Mental Health Services, as well. Basically he is asking them the question: what would you do if you had more resources or more collaborative efforts? Dobyns stated that he believes this will be more helpful to the Committee as they finalize their recommendations. Bern -Klug stated that by doing this, Dobyns will have different information regarding the organizations he contacted versus what everyone else will have on their agency. She believes they should then give everyone the same opportunity to speak to what they would do if they had extra funds. Dobyns stated that this is why he is mentioning this now, to see what others think about this. Dohrmann noted that speaking from the standpoint of Elder Services, they have indicated that funding is extremely tight. They are barely keeping up with the demand. If they had increased resources, they would be able to provide that much more care. Bern -Klug added that basically all of the agencies that requested funds from Aid to Agencies would probably say receiving the amount they requested would be a start. Younker stated that they have asked agencies to provide them with gaps in services, so this is another way to get to the same issue. Dohrmann then asked Fruin if there is an evaluation tool that is submitted in relation to funds received in the Aid to Agency process. He stated that by combining the City's efforts with United Way, agencies have to go through a pretty prescriptive process with their application. This one application then allows agencies to be considered for funding by several different entities. He added that he could get Members a copy of a typical application so they can see for themselves what is asked of agencies. Dohrmann asked if there is some type of follow up, after funding is granted, to see if the agencies used the funds as they stated they would. Fruin stated that with federal dollars especially there are fairly strict guidelines regarding use of funds. You have to be able to document numbers and dollars. Honohan asked Fruin if Members could receive a copy of the United Way's application guidelines. Fruin stated that he would forward that for the Committee's review. Honohan moved to accept the reports given, with the understanding that next meeting will be the final discussion of the list of agencies; seconded by Webber. Motion carried 7-0. PAGE 6 Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee August 18, 2014 Page 4 FINAL DISCUSSION OF LIST OF AGENCIES: Younker asked if anyone had other agencies to add to their list of agencies to research. Dohrmann stated that if they are going to be asking for information from the Free Medical Clinic and the VNA that they should also add the Iowa City Hospice. Webber asked about the Hispanic community and if they are accessing these same services. Dobyns agreed with Webber's comment, adding that it would be helpful to know what resources are needed there. Dohrmann asked Fruin about some of the groups, perhaps the Immigration Center through the Church of Nazarene, that they could check with. Fruin responded that the Human Rights Commission may have some group suggestions for them. The Center for Worker Justice is one such group. Weber volunteered to contact whichever groups they deem necessary. Staff will follow up. DISCUSSION OF HOW CITY HOUSING AUTHORITY SERVES COMMUNITY NEEDS: Fruin introduced Housing Adm. Steve Rackis with the Iowa City Housing Authority, noting that he is present to give Members an overview of the Housing Authority and how they serve seniors in the community. Rackis first noted that St. Patrick's Church is a good contact point for the Hispanic community. Continuing, Rackis noted that the Housing Authority was established in 1969, serving Johnson County, Iowa County, and Washington County, north of Highway 92. The majority of housing vouchers are utilized in Johnson County, with the public housing units being exclusively in Iowa City. In the housing choice voucher program, there are 1,215 vouchers; 50 veteran -supported service vouchers; 81 public housing units; and the Peninsula Apartments, a 10 -unit building, where the elderly and disabled are targeted. Rackis explained how HUD allows housing authorities to establish local preference categories, which are the 'pecking order' of how they use their resources. He spoke to how the Housing Authority made the determination years ago that they were not going to serve 'poor' college students, and he shared how some investigative reporting uncovered some non -eligible students were getting housing in the project -based facilities. HUD actually adopted a 'student rule,' which further outlines what type of students can participate in various Housing and Urban Development programs. Continuing, Rackis further explained some of the terms used in HUD -based programs. An 'elderly household,' for example, is one where the head of household is 62 years of age. Citing percentages from the Housing Authority's annual report, Rackis noted that 'elderly' households account for 17% of the participation in the housing choice voucher program, public housing program, and the veteran -supported services program. Rackis noted that he does have a current number on their waiting list, as of today's date, and it shows 417 in the primary preference category. Of those, 34 are elderly. Outside of this preference category, there are an additional 3,000 applicants. Rackis stated that one reason they don't see a larger number of elderly disabled on this list is due to the housing choices within the city. There are about 700 units in the area dedicated to the elderly disabled. Rackis continued to explain the programs that the elderly can apply for, noting that there are not many barriers here but rather options for the elderly to choose from. Dobyns asked if Rackis would speak to the federal program funds and what might happen in the future. Rackis noted that when the City did the affordable housing study in December of 2007, many of these units were at the end of their 20 -year period of affordability. None of the project - based facilities opted out of their contract with HUD. In fact, they renegotiated with HUD and Systems Unlimited, for example, got funding to help modernize and upgrade a lot of their units. PAGE 7 Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee August 18, 2014 Page 5 Rackis noted that he is not sure how long these new contracts are for. He added that they would have to give one -year's notice to HUD and to all of their tenants before they could opt out of their contract. Dobyns asked if Rackis knows what the next five years may bring with affordable housing for the older population. Rackis stated that he believes it is going to increase. With the University looking to increase its undergrad population, this will continue to put pressure on affordable housing unit needs in the area. Ruth Hanson, audience member, asked what a Section 8 voucher is. Rackis explained that eligible families, who have gone through the eligibility determination process, can find an approved housing unit to live in. The Housing Authority enters into a contract with the landlord where they pay the landlord directly a portion of the rent, based on the family size and income. The housing choice voucher program serves families that are at 50% or below the median income. For public housing, this is 80% or below the median income. Home and CDBG funds are also at 80% or below, with a certain amount of Home funds that have to be at 60%. Mary Gravitt then spoke to Regency, stating that they never answer their phone and have an answering service. She has left messages and has requested information, but states she has never received the information from them. She also asked about Capitol House, stating that she went there recently and that she was scared trying to get in, that the place appeared to be more of a project. Rackis stated that the Housing Authority does not provide any oversight to either of these facilities. The Iowa Finance Authority does the monitoring and oversight of them. He stated that he can provide the contact information for Gravitt. Honohan asked Rackis about the Housing Authority's waiting list and prioritizing, and how this works. Rackis explained how they opened the waiting list in October of 2013. He noted that just this week, the Housing Authority sent notification to everybody that applied through January of 2014. As of today, the person at the top of the waiting list would be someone who applied in February of 2014. He noted that if someone would apply today and are in the top preference category, they would go ahead of everybody else on the waiting list. Bern -Klug stated that from the information provided, it appears the biggest unmet housing need for low-income people would be families with children. Rackis agreed with this, stating that the elderly and disabled tend to stay where they are once they find suitable housing. Dohrmann noted that Rackis stated he sees this housing need as staying stable. She questioned if the needs will be changing with the growing number of seniors in the community. Rackis spoke to this, saying that with the housing choices that have come about in communities like North Liberty and Solon, in addition to those in Iowa City, he does not see the need growing for the Housing Authority. Mary Gravitt spoke to the home ownership programs, asking if there are limitations here with age or income. Rackis stated that there is no limit, that the only limiting factor is the family's ability to secure a mortgage. He briefly explained what this program is about. PUBLIC DISCUSSION (ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA): Chuck Felling of the Senior Center Commission appeared and stated he appreciates the work the Committee is doing. Felling stated that many of the questions and concerns he has heard out of this Committee's meetings are the same ones the Senior Center Commission and its subcommittees have been hearing for some time now. He believes they need to have a bigger picture of all of the available resources in the community. Mary Gravitt stated she is confused, and believes the Committee is straying away from the Senior Center building topic. She asked Fruin about the $50,000 that the Finance Director PAGE 8 Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee August 18, 2014 Page 6 stated they would be losing in the future. She questioned what would be coming in, to offset this loss. She stated that they need to read the City's Charter to see what the rules really are. Another problem with the Committee, according to Gravitt, is they do not have a mission statement. She questioned why the Committee is talking to all of these other agencies. She stated that to her the argument is about the repurposing of the Senior Center building. Larry Rogers, a Senior Center Member, stated that back when he was a cook in Johnson County, the restaurant manager would price the menu based on seven times the cost of the materials and labor, except for toast. Toast was 20 times. He questioned what the different groups are using for their criteria — toast or seven times. Secondly, he stated that he just received a bill from Medicare and it stated that his doctor billed them for $125 for an office visit. Medicare only allowed $74, and of this $15 is his co -pay. He asked if they are looking at the $125 when looking at these programs, or the $74 that is the allowed amount. He stated that he, like Mary, questions what the Committee is doing. He suggested that if the City is unable to fund the Senior Center that they put out a 'feeler' on the internet where they ask people to donate money to keep the Center going. Marsha Anderson, a life-long Iowa City resident, stated she appreciates the comments people are making, and she too questions what the Committee is doing. When talking about 'older Iowa Citians,' she questions what they are calling an older person. The Senior Center looks at 50 years of age for membership. She noted that other agencies, however, use different numbers — 62, 65, 67, 72. She questioned if the comparisons the Committee is making are really apples -to -apples. Speaking to the non-member use of the Senior Center, Anderson noted that many of these people are indeed senior citizens. She questioned why an incredibly value resource such as the Senior Center is even being questioned. Younker asked that Karr include a copy of the resolution establishing the Committee in the next meeting packet. PENDING ITEMS FOR FUTURE MEETINGS: Younker stated that they need to talk about bringing their information together and starting to structure their recommendations to Council. Previously they talked about a tentative deadline of having a draft by early October. He suggested they stay with this schedule, allowing time for public input and refining of their recommendations, and still hit their deadline of December 1 established by Council. Honohan stated that he would like to have other Members' input on the Senior Center report by September 3, as he sees this as the biggest part of their charge. Dohrmann added that in addition to further input from other Members, further recommendations should also be brought forth. She sees this as the beginning of how they start to structure their final report. Younker added that a related agenda item will be the structure of the report itself. He stated that there will be correspondence from himself and Vice Chair Dohrmann that can be discussed at the next meeting. Members agreed that they would like to have other's comments, additions, etc., prior to the next meeting so they can review them beforehand. Noon on the 27th will be the deadline for comments to Karr, with the goal of having information out to the Committee on the 28th. ounKer aSKea it tnere were any connects witn the Septemoer scneauie. uonrmann she does have a conflict on the 24th. Younker asked Members if they feel they need PAGE 9 Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee August18,2014 Page 7 an additional meeting in September. Members agreed to keep the September schedule as is. For October, October 1 and 22 were looked at as meeting dates. Dohrmann stated that she would be late to the October 1 meeting due to a work conflict. Honohan moved that they schedule the meetings as discussed, seconded by Cannon. Bern -Klug noted that she believes they should add another September meeting now, rather than wait until they get into September. That way they can cancel a meeting if they don't need it. Dohrmann suggested they set the November meetings today as well. A discussion ensued with Members noting which dates do not work for them. Karr added that the last meeting in late November could possibly be their last meeting. Members agreed to November meetings being the 12th and 24th, with the 24th being their last meeting. Honohan and Cannon agreed to amend the motion on the floor by adding the November dates. Motion carried 7-0. Younker then asked if they wanted to look at other October dates. Dohrmann suggested they wait until the September 3 meeting to discuss further meeting dates. Bern -Klug asked which meeting would be the public hearing time. Younker stated that most likely the September 24 meeting would be for public comment. Discussion continued on this issue. Webber moved to set a third meeting date for October, seconded by Honohan. Motion carried 7-0. After some discussion, Members agreed to set October 15th as a meeting date, in addition to the October 1st and 22"d. Dobyns moved that the Committee meet on October 1, 15, and 22 at 3:30 P.M.; seconded by Bern -Klug. Motion carried 7-0. Karr stated that she will check room availability right away as scheduling can get tight around the holidays. September 3 September 24 October 1 October 15 October 22 November 12 November 24 ADJOURNMENT: Honohan moved to adjourn the meeting at 5:00 P.M., seconded by Dohrmann. Motion carried 7-0.

The City partners with United Way and uses a single application to evaluate requests. This partnership eases administrative burdens on the agencies by requiring them to only complete one application for multiple entities. The application is completed online through a web portal managed by the United Way. All funding agencies have access to the complete submissions. A copy of the application as well as a screen shot showing reporting indicators follows this memorandum. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

Please see attached and let us know if you have questions or would like to discuss the housing issues addressed herein. Thank you for your consideration. Susan Shullaw 718 North Johnson Street Iowa City, IA 52245 Office: 319-351-2606 Cell: 319-541-4288 susan@susanshullaw.com PAGE 24 August 25, 2014 Dear Mayor Hayek and City Councilors: As a group of age 60+ Northside residents contemplating the purchase of smaller homes or apartments as we retire, we were extremely disappointed to see that only one of the six proposed developments for the Linn and Court Street property (former St. Patrick's Parish Hall site) addresses the need for senior - suitable housing near downtown. We ask that the City Council, in evaluating these and future housing proposals, place greater priority (for that matter, at least some priorityl) on the need for more senior -friendly housing in and near downtown, i.e., within a roughly 1.5 -mile radius of Old Capitol. Our definition of senior -suitable housing—whether rental or owner -occupied —would accommodate a wide range of income brackets and include features such as these: • Universal design, e.g., wider doorways, grab bars, and other amenities for individuals who are or may become mobility -impaired and needing wheelchairs and/or walkers • Shared amenities such as a fitness center, game room(s), and/or other spaces designed for recreation and socialization • Close proximity to public transportation, dining, groceries, and other services We do not believe such projects need to be confined exclusively to seniors, however one might define that age category. In fact, one of the chief attractions of living on the Northside, as is true of most of Iowa City's historic neighborhoods, is that we are surrounded by neighbors young and old, including college students, young professionals, and families with children. We are not advocating the creation of a "retirement home" in the midst of downtown; rather, we believe the time has come to shift some portion of the new housing being built in and near downtown (including Riverfront Crossings) to consider the wants and needs of Iowa City's aging population. Given the rapid expansion of predominantly student -oriented housing projects in and near downtown in recent years, we fear that seniors are being squeezed and priced out of close -in housing options. This phenomenon hurts downtown—and hence Iowa City as a whole — in several ways: • Aging Boomers—those of us who are long-time residents as well as recent transplants —are a growing segment of the local population (see "City Faces Aging Population," the Daily Iowan, February 17, 2014). According to the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately 8 percent of the Iowa City population is above age 65. Across the state, 15 percent of Iowans are age 65 and older, a number that state officials expect to approach 20 percent by 2025. We can and should expect similar increases here. Iowa City has been cited in numerous national publications as an ideal retirement destination. We believe the City should be taking steps to ensure that our community retains this distinction by making it easier for seniors to live within walking distance of downtown and its amenities. • Based on the number of University retirees and other educated professionals among Iowa City's 60 -plus population, it would appear that this segment of the community has considerable discretionary income, which they enjoy spending downtown. Observe the age mix at downtown restaurants, bookstores, clothing stores, music festivals, and other venues and attractions: We PAGE 25 may not be hanging out in the "warehouse bars" any longer, but you'll find us everywhere else, enriching the local economy. ® We don't believe it's an exaggeration to state that senior citizens are keeping Iowa City's diverse nonprofit community alive and well, including the arts -related organizations that have made downtown Iowa City so attractive. The Englert Theater, Summer of the Arts, Riverside Theatre, FilmScene, and the University's many arts and culture programs — none would be thriving today without donors and volunteers age 60 and above. Enabling us to live "where the action is" keeps us further engaged with and investing in these essential community assets. ® Promoting more senior -suitable housing downtown contributes to Iowa City's many efforts to "go green" by reducing reliance on motorized transportation and encouraging walking and biking. These activities are healthier for all individuals. With a new UI dorm nearing completion, and literally thousands of student -focused housing units in and near downtown, surely we have reached a student -housing saturation point. Conversely, it appears that only three housing projects in downtown Iowa City— Ecumenical Towers (81 units), Capitol House (81 units), and the Citizen Building (18 units) — are designated as "supportive housing" for the elderly and/or disabled, and those projects are restricted to residents of limited income. Plaza Towers is home to many seniors, but those units, as well as the new units at Park@201, are cost -prohibitive for many. Between these extremes, we believe there is a large and growing market of active Boomers eager to "downsize to downtown" To reiterate: For these reasons and more, we urge the City Council to encourage developers to propose more senior -friendly housing projects in and near downtown. We would be happy to discuss these issues and ideas with the Council and City staff at any time. Thank you for your consideration. Susan Shullaw Nancy Hauserman Linda McGuire and Anne Burnside Joy Smith and David Rust Cathy Cole and Mike Feiss Prepared by: Geoff Fruin, Asst. to the City Manager, 410 E. Washington St., Iowa City, IA 52240 (319) 356-5010 RESOLUTION NO. 14-37 RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING AN AD HOC SENIOR SERVICES COMMITTEE TO REVIEW THE VISION, MISSION, AND PROGRAMMING OF CITY SPONSORED SENIOR SERVICES IN RELATION TO THE OVERALL NEEDS OF SENIORS IN THE COMMUNITY WHEREAS, The vast majority of city sponsored senior services are provided through the Senior Center (aka The Center). The Vision of the Senior Center is that it "will be the communities' primary resource for the highest quality programs, services, and opportunities that promote optimal aging'. The Mission of the Senior Center is "to promote optimal aging among older adults by offering programs and services that promote wellness, social interaction, community engagement, and intellectual growth. The Center serves the public through intergenerational programming and community outreach. ,- and WHEREAS, According to the United States Census Bureau, the segments of the United States population that grew the fastest between 2000 and 2010 were persons ages 45 to 64 years and 65 years and older. Statistics on the State of Iowa and the City of Iowa City indicate that the senior population is growing in similar fashion; and WHEREAS, The City Council recently adopted its 2014-15 Strategic Plan, which includes a commitment to foster a more inclusive and sustainable Iowa City. The Strategic Plan also included a new initiative to examine alternative approaches to delivering services and programs for senior citizens; and WHEREAS, It is important for City services to recognize and adapt to the changing demographic and socioeconomic profile of Iowa City residents in order to ensure that municipal services are best meeting the needs of the population; and WHEREAS, The City Council has expressed a desire to evaluate the current services offered by the Senior Center in order to ensure that the City is effectively meeting the needs of the senior population within the community. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IOWA CITY, IOWA, THAT: 1. The Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee is established. 2. The Senior Service Committee shall consist of seven (7) members to be appointed by the City Council. Members of other City boards and commissions may serve on the Senior Services Committee. Membership shall include at least one member of the City Council, Senior Center Commission and a non-member of the Senior Center. Up to two non-residents of the City of Iowa City shall be eligible to serve on the committee if they are residents of Johnson County and offer desirable expertise not available from applicants who reside in Iowa City. PAGE 27 Resolution No. 14-37 Page 2 3. Applications for membership on the Senior Services Committee shall be announced, advertised, and available in the same manner as those for all City boards and commissions. The term of members shall commence immediately upon City Council appointment. 4. City Council shall select the Chair, who when present will preside over all meetings, and the Vice -Chair, who will serve as chair in absence of the Chair. 5. The City Manager and City Clerk, or their designees, shall staff the Senior Services Committee. 6. The Senior Services Committee shall determine the frequency and conduct of its meetings. The meetings will be open to the public in accordance with Chapter 21 of the Iowa Code. 7. The Senior Services Committee shall serve from May 1, 2014 to December 1, 2014 and shall have an organizational meeting no later than June 13, 2014. 8. The charges of the Senior Services Committee are as follows: A. To evaluate the current vision, mission, programming, and recent accomplishments of the Senior Center, as detailed in the 2013 Annual Report. Further, and to review the current demographics of the participants served by existing operations. Such evaluation should consider the 2013 Senior Center Survey of Members, Former Members and Non -Members, as well as other available data sources from the Senior Center, and determine whether segments of the senior population are not accessing available services. A summary of this committee evaluation and its related findings shall be included in the final written report submitted to the City Council. B. To make recommendations to the City Council on how Iowa City should use current financial and physical resources to meet the needs of Iowa City seniors. These recommendations should consider the City's use of existing resources and the vision, mission and programming required to more effectively serve the growing senior population in the community in accordance with the inclusive and sustainable values expressed in the City's Strategic Plan. Such recommendations shall include commentary regarding the specific segments of the senior population that they are intended to serve. C. To identify any obstacles, including facility considerations, which may be hindering the City's ability to serve the senior population and to make recommendations that would minimize or eliminate such obstacles. 9. The Senior Services Committee shall submit a written report to the City Council by December 1, 2014, that responds to each of the charges listed above and that contains recommendations, if any, with respect to each of the charges. 10. Absent further action by the City Council, the Senior Services Committee will dissolve on December 1, 2014. Resolution No. 14-37 Page 3 PAGE 28 Passed and approved this 18 eh day of February 2014.

Particularly to Merz and Rick, and also to the committee for my failure to put my best efforts working with Merz and Rick in putting together the draft report on the Senior Center. I have little excuse. Too much thinking about trip to Wyoming. Lazy too maybe. That said, I would like to make some amends by expressing the following concerns and suggestions for things that I propose regarding the report and changes to the report. I believe that the draft needs to be juiced up. As I understand the first part of the City Council's directive was to make a recommendation regarding the Senior Center. To put it another way from a spaghetti western , tell them the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. All committee members can feel free to disagree with this assessment. I always welcome dissent. With that in mind, I have some suggestions for language to add to the draft that we should look at. Also I suggest that we delete some sentences to make the report shorter. Since this is to be a report from the committee as a whole, we should change every subcommittee to the Ad Hoc Committee. 1. I propose that we add the following language or something similar in the report to the Council. I would place it on page 1 immediately after the 8A Part 1 in bold and before the Vision Statement paragraph. The Senior Center is the primary resource for quality programs and services that promote optimal aging for seniors in the Iowa City community. The Center's programs promote active aging in seniors at a consistently high level. As noted in the Accreditation Report of the National Council of the Aging National Institute of Senior Centers, the Center accomplishes its vision and mission statements and serves as a model for senior centers. 2. I propose that we add the following language or something similar in the report to the Council. I would place it on page 2 following the line at the top of the page which lists the number of members at 1,592. The Center's participants are primarily older adults who are physically and mentally able. The small staff is not trained or large enough to provide personal services for individuals who need assistance because of dementia or other cognitive impairments. Nevertheless many of the Center's participants have 1 PAGE 31 disabilities and use walkers, scooters, and canes while at the Center. Typically these individuals participate in passive classes and use exercise equipment that are designed for them. Other activities that they engage in include cards, music performances, reading newspapers, socializing, many classes, going to support groups, and seeking counseling. The Alzheimer's Association Caregiver's Support Group does meet monthly at the Center. Additionally, the Visiting Nurses offices at the Center provides health screenings regularly. There are many programs recommended to assist frail, elderly and homebound individuals that the Center could adopt but these programs would require additional staff. And further the additional staff would need to be professionally trained individuals. This additional staff would require additional funding that is not expected to be available in the future. 3. I propose that we add the following language or something similar in the report to the Council. I would place it on page 2 in the paragraph "Programming at the senior center" following the sentence "Many people in the community benefit from events and activities at the center who are not senior center members." It is difficult if not impossible to quantify the number of Seniors who attend the Center who are not members. Attendance at special events by non-members is often large. Many activities and programs at the Center are available for and are attended by non-members. In the Fall Program Guide for the Center there are one hundred twenty seven (127) different classes, programs, activities, and special events listed. Of these sixty four (64) are open to the public and membership is not required. 126,126 visits to the Center occurred in fiscal year 2013. Most of the non-members are not included in this figure. Additionally the Center participates in many city wide events in the downtown area. I would delete the last two sentences of this paragraph starting with `Some activities etc." 4. I propose that we add the following language or something similar in the report to the Council. I would place it on page 2 at the end of the paragraph "Programming at the senior center". Transportation can be and is a major problem for seniors including both those who can drive and those who cannot. It has been suggested that classes and activities be spread out into the community from the Center. If this occurred many seniors would find it difficult if not impossible to attend classes and 2 PAGE 32 activities that they now attend at the Senior Center on the same day. Even though "Seats" is available, it is not a complete solution to transportation to senior to make timely trips to various locations in Iowa City. Also finding suitable locations for classes away from the Center would be difficult as most city and school buildings have limited space available during the school year. A central location is clearly the best approach for senior members of the community. 5. Starting on page 3, I would delete the full paragraph "Center was assessed etc." and jump to the paragraph starting with "The national review committee" I would also delete in the paragraph starting with "The national review committee member's accreditation letter" all of the language in parentheses. I propose the following sentence at the end of the paragraph. Many of these recommendations would require additional staff at the Center. Positions which have been requested by the coordinator but not approved because of budget considerations. 6. I propose that we add the following language or something similar in the report to the Council. I would place it on page 5 in the paragraph starting with "Also, although the members of the older adult minorities in Iowa City is small, there is room for greater racial and ethnic diversity among Senior Center members." right after the word members and I would delete the phrase (there are no data etc.). Attached to this report is an exhibit of information obtained from the State of Iowa Data Center of Johnson County census information. Information specific about Iowa City was not available to the Committee from the Data Center. The Senior Center does not record or identify the race or ethnic information of members or non-member seniors who attend classes or activities at the Center. Committee members are aware of a few participants at the Center who are black, Hispanic, and Asian. As can be seen by the exhibit the pool of available black, Hispanic, and Asian seniors is small. Staff and the Steering Committee are working on increasing minority membership as an ongoing task. 7. I propose that we add the following language or something similar to the report to the Council. I suggest placing this language on page 4 following the paragraph ending with A+. The Senior Center relies heavily on funding by the City of Iowa City from the general fund of tax dollars. Funds from other sources including donations, Johnson County, and Friends of the Center account for approximately 20%-25% of the budget's 3 PAGE 33 operation costs. It is difficult to place a dollar value on human services programs. Programs which help seniors maintain active lives are considered essential to prevent dementia and disabilities in seniors. This is the role of the Senior Center. The Committee's review and the Accreditation report show that the Senior Center serves this role well and that the City of Iowa City should continue its support of the Center.

Post "slower pedestrian crossing" sign on the corners of Linn and Washington streets. d.

Consultation of Religious Communities Summary Summary: The Consultation of Religious Communities is an interfaith council comprised of more than thirty religious communities and related agencies of Johnson County. They sponsor events and service activities with and for the community, and work to foster appreciation and understanding on matters of religious and cultural diversity. -Congregations offer services and events for all participants. Two congregations offer organized activities for seniors. Identified gaps in the services available to seniors in Iowa City: -Lack of busing and limited SEATS service on Sunday. To address this concern, the CRC formed a transportation committee. They have spoken with Yellow Cab about providing reduced costs and becoming ADA equipped to transport people on Sundays. Discussions are on-going. - SEATS only comes to Tiffin on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Some people who utilize SEATS have medical appointments on Mon/Wed/Fri. -Lack of affordable mental health care Additional information for the committee: -"We take care of our own" (respective communities of faith work together to meet the needs of their elders). -Youth groups and other groups within congregations assist with grocery shopping, raking leaves, shoveling, etc. to improve the lives of elders. -Some groups offer medical equipment and other devices to assist in the home. -Seniors volunteer many, many hours throughout the community. -Many other faith groups do not choose to participate in the CRC. Recommendations: -Up-to-date referral information. Pastors are often asked how to connect people to services. -Repair curbs throughout the city to ensure that they meet ADA codes. 5) Budget and funding sources: $10,800. Donations come from congregations and individuals. The CRC collects money for the Common Fund, a program to assist people who would not otherwise get resources.

In terms of number of seniors served, I would say that we have 7 participants in the program. We also have 8 volunteers who are over 65. In addition, our advisory board is made up primarily of seniors, as well. I have recently been in contact with the senior center to provide a day of visiting with seniors at the center in September, to present a program during the fall and to appear on SCTV to talk about Compeer. My predecessor, Karen Fox, spoke at the center twice and recruited new volunteers each time. I would not describe our relationship with the Senior Center as collaborative at this point, but would be very interested in participating in a collaborative relationship in the future. Additional funds would allow Compeer to do three specific things: 1) hicrease staffing. We only have one half-time staff person at this point and more staff would allow us to broaden our outreach and plan events to reach a wider group of volunteers and participants. We plan, particularly, to emphasize the benefits of volunteering to seniors and senior groups. 2) Additional staff would also help with fundraising as Compeer relies solely on limited city finding and donations. We would like to research other funding options and have staff time to apply for new finding opportunities. 3) Compeer has suffered with name recognition and we need to increase our public profile. While we take advantage of free advertising opportunities, we would like to pursue paid advertising on a limited basis. Additionally, we need to update our marketing materials and additional financial support would help with that.

I know that we had the city transportation director give us a breakdown but I do not believe that we have targeted the role of Seats. I think that this is one of the most important services to seniors so it should be included. This is what I have found out to date from the internet. The director and I have been missing each other but I will be in touch and have more info regarding budget and funding sources. Jay 1.

PAGE 41 TO: Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee FROM: Joe Younker, Chair; Jane Dohrmann, Vice -Chair RE: Suggested Format for Report to Council DATE: August 28, 2014 The Resolution establishing the Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee ("Committee") provides that the Committee "shall submit a written report to the City Council by December 1, 2014, that responds to each of the charges listed above [i.e., evaluation of the Senior Center, recommendations regarding use of financial and physical resources to meet the needs of Iowa City seniors, and identification of obstacles that may be hindering the City's ability to serve the senior population) and that contains recommendations, if any, with respect to each of the charges." Res. No. 14-37, T 9. To assist the Committee in preparing a responsive and useful report, the Chair and Vice -Chair, as a starting point for discussion, make the following suggestions regarding the report's format and structure: 1. To keep the report focused and concise, we suggest that it be no longer than 4-5 pages. Council Members will have access to all of the Committee's packet materials (e.g., reports regarding other agencies, the subcommittee's evaluation of the Senior Center, etc.), so reproducing the entire process in the report is unnecessary. Important information and recommendations will be lost in a report that is unwieldy. 2. We suggest that the report include the following main sections: a) Introduction, including a brief summary of applicable trends considered by the Committee and brief outline of the Committee's process; b) Evaluation of the Senior Center, responding to charge 8(A); c) Resource Recommendations, responding to charge 8(B); d) Identification of Obstacles, responding to charge 8(C); and e) Identification of Data Gaps / Necessary Investigation. 3. The evaluation of the Senior Center completed by the subcommittee should be summarized in 1-2 pages for inclusion in the report to Council. 4. Among others, possible topics for inclusion in the recommendations include: a) transportation; b) communication of funding projections to local service providers; c) accountability of local service providers in relation to receipt of City funds; d) funding opportunities; e) revenue generation at the Senior Center; f) increasing diversity among Senior Center users. 5. To the extent possible and appropriate, we suggest that information in the report be presented in bullet points. Ideally, each point would be 3-5 sentences in length. (01757108.DOCx) PAGE 42 At our September 3 meeting, the Committee will discuss the format and structure of its report to Council. It will also discuss the distribution of drafting responsibilities for the report.

Iowa City Hospice's Principle of Practice As a community -oriented, not for profit organization, Iowa City Hospice is dedicated to offering services to everyone regardless of an individual's ability to pay. Paying Tribute At this year's Walk for Dignity, Iowa City Hospice will debut two Tribute Walls recognizing our most generous donors from the past 30 years. The walls will compliment the existing meditation garden in Willow Creek Park, with limestone bases and simple granite walls, the same color as the center stone in the founder's square of bricks. The Project Green Volunteers are designing and maintaining the adjoining garden area. Honorary Walk for Dignity Families, Estate Gifts, and exceptionally generous Memorials will also be recognized. The Tribute Wall, itself, is made possible through a generous gift from Hills Bank and Trust Company.

With your help, Iowa City Hospice provided 1,659 days of community supported care in 2013! In this report you will read about the Jane Hanrahan family, our 2014 Walk for Dignity Family. The warmth of Jane's love for her family and community comes through in this story about how Team Jane continues her legacy of charity. Included is a feature on many of the ways that volunteers serve Iowa City Hospice. This past year, we were delighted to learn that Iowa City Hospice volunteers are ranked among the top 10 percent of all hospice volunteers in the nation! Truly, our volunteers are still the heart of Iowa City Hospice. A current snapshot of our accomplishments and the services we offer is provided. Our challenges include significant cuts to Medicare and temporary disruption while we undergo a much needed remodel of our office. All are invited to join us at the Walk for Dignity on Sunday, April 27, and the special debut of the Tribute Walls, recognizing our most generous donors from the past 30 years. All gifts are greatly appreciated and make it possible for Iowa City Hospice to bring comfort and peace to those we serve, their caregivers and families. Thank You for your confidence, loyalty and support. Maggie Elliott Executive Director Mary Adamek 2013 Board Chair Iowa City Hospice 2013 Annual Report and Honor Roll of Donors M= For Dignity Ask Jane Hanrahan's children this, "Tell me about your mom," and the responses are quick, sure, enthusiastic and unanimous —caring, so giving, shared everything, loving, kind (and amazingly) never crabby or cross with any of us. Above: Hanrahan family, 1973 (left to right) Front row: Jane, Teresa, Tim, Joseph Back row: Margaret, Marty, Joe, Mike, Dan, Mary Jane Opposite page: Irish Mother of the Year, 2007 (Left to right) Front row: Marty, Jane, Mike Middle row: Mary Jane, Teresa, Margaret Back row: Dan, Tim, Joe 2 In addition to being the mother of eight, Jane was a nurse's aid in the Mercy Iowa City orthopedic unit. Somehow, she still found time to volunteer at school, church, the hospital and later, at Iowa City Hospice. Her skills and love of people were a perfect fit for hospice care. Jane felt it was a gift to be nurturing, and would sit with patients and their families, pray with them if they wished and even bring the comfort of a special dish she made herself. When Jane became ill, Iowa City Hospice's care was there for her. Her children recalled that her face would light up when the Iowa City Hospice volunteers, staff or Jane's nurse, Rachel, arrived. Besides the human touch, whatever the special need, whatever the hour, Iowa City Hospice responded. "It was such a relief when Iowa City Hospice came on board," Jane's daughter, Teresa recalls, "With one phone call; they took it from there and knew just what to do." Even with her experience, Jane and the family didn't realize the range of what Iowa City Hospice provided. They made sure everyone's needs were met. Teresa says, "the love they showed our mother — they never made her feel that she was a burden. It really was dignity that they provided." In 2010, a year after Jane's death her son, Marty, formed Team Jane to both pay tribute to their beloved Mother, and to support Iowa City Hospice, a cause she believed in. This year the Hanrahan's are the 2014 Honorary Walk for Dignity Family. After the Walk, the Hanrahan family will continue the party and pay one more tribute to their mother with a trip to the Dairy Queen, remembering her wish that they get together to have fun and some ice cream, always available in her freezer. Son Marry says, "Our mom took pride in seeing her values reflected in us and her grandchildren. With the Walk, we have a great time and continue her legacy, what she stood for — service, charity and giving back to others."

Yet at the same time it is important that the report be as complete as possible and that may make it difficult if we restrict the report too much. One thought would be to follow the summary suggestions as outlined in the memo but then attach a detailed copy of what I believe to be the two area's of importance as per the Resolution. The Senior Center and two generally how well the seniors are being served in the community. With this in mind may I suggest on shortening the Senior Center report that we consider the following: 1. On page 1, strike the sentence "The Iowa City/Johnson County Senior Center etc.". And strike the sentence "Charge to the subcommittee." 2. After the Charge in Bold, I would insert the following: The Senior Center is the primary resource for quality programs and services that promote optimal aging for seniors in the Iowa City community. The Center's programs promote active aging in seniors at a consistently high level. As noted in the Accreditation Report of the National Council of the Aging National Institute of Senior Centers, the Center accomplishes its vision and mission statements and serves as a model for senior centers 3. On page 1, leave out the blank spaces between the charge and the vision and mission statements. 4. On page 1 strike the paragraph entitled People. Replace it with the following: Center Staff: Six full time, 2 part time. All covered by union contract except coordinator. Center Volunteers donated 24,300 hours towards the operation of the Center. 5. On page 2, I would strike the first line, "This figure includes etc." After the line number of members I would place the following: The Center's participants are primarily older adults who are physically and mentally able. The small staff is not trained or large enough to provide personal services for individuals who need assistance because of dementia or other cognitive impairments. Nevertheless many of the Center's participants have disabilities and use walkers, scooters, and canes while at the Center. Typically these individuals participate in passive classes and use exercise equipment that are designed for them. Other activities that they engage in include cards, music performances, reading newspapers, socializing, many classes, going to support groups, and seeking counseling. The Alzheimer's Association Caregiver's Support Group does meet monthly at the Center. Additionally, the Visiting Nurses offices at the Center provides health screenings regularly. There are many programs recommended to assist frail, elderly and homebound individuals that the Center could adopt but these programs would require additional staff. And further the additional staff would need to be professionally trained individuals. This additional staff would require additional funding that is not expected to be available in the future. 6. I would strike the paragraph starting with "Membership etc.) and replace it with the following: Membership Dues: Iowa City $33, second member $20, Johnson County including cities $60, $33, non -Johnson County $96. The scholarships for low income $10. 7. On page 2, I would strike the paragraph starting with "Programing at the Center etc." and replace it with the following: It is difficult if not impossible to quantify the number of Seniors who attend the Center who are not members. Attendance at special events by non-members is often large. Many activities and programs at the Center are available for and are attended by non-members. In the Fall Program Guide for the Center there are one hundred twenty seven (127) different classes, programs, activities, and special events listed. Of these sixty four (64) are open to the public and membership is not required. 126,126 visits to the Center occurred in fiscal year 2013. Most of the non-members are not included in this figure. Additionally the Center participates in many city wide events in the downtown area. 8. On page 2, I would add the following after the paragraph starting with "Many persons reported high etc." Transportation can be and is a major problem for seniors including both those who can drive and those who cannot. It has been suggested that classes and activities be spread out into the community from the Center. If this occurred many seniors would find it difficult if not impossible to attend classes and activities that they now attend at the Senior Center on the same day. Even though "Seats" is available, it is not a complete solution to transportation to senior to make timely trips to various locations in Iowa City. Also finding suitable locations for classes away from the Center would be difficult as most city and school buildings have limited space available during the school year. A central location is clearly the best approach for senior members of the community. 9. I would strike on page 2 and 3 all of the report of the accreditation committee after the paragraph that began on page 2 and ended with the "the senior center is in the top two percent of senior centers nationally." So nothing remains on page 3 after that sentence. 10. On page 4, I would strike the paragraph with "Review etc." and the paragraph "the subcommittee agrees etc." I would add the following prior to the paragraph "8A part 2 The Senior Center relies heavily on funding by the City of Iowa City from the general fund of tax dollars. Funds from other sources including donations, Johnson County, and Friends of the Center account for approximately 20%-25% of the budget's operation costs. It is difficult to place a dollar value on human services programs. Programs which help seniors maintain active lives are considered essential to prevent dementia and disabilities in seniors. This is the role of the Senior Center. The Committee's review and the Accreditation report show that the Senior Center serves this role well and that the City of Iowa City should continue its support of the Center. 11. On page 4, I would strike the sentence at the end of the last paragraph "Table 1 compares etc.". I would strike all of page 5 including the table and leave just the last paragraph "Expanding the diversity etc." 12. I would insert on page 5 before the first paragraph the following: The Senior Center does not record or identify the race or ethnic information of members or non-member seniors who attend classes or activities at the Center. Many participants at the Center are black, Hispanic, and Asian. Yet the numbers are small. The pool of available black, Hispanic, and Asian seniors in the Iowa City area is small. ravrff- Mary, This is a summary of the first (expired) Local Option Sales Tax, the Utility Franchise Tax, and the newly proposed Local Option Sales Tax, Local Option Sales Tax (Flood/Expired) In early 2009, the State Legislature authorized flood -impacted cities and unincorporated areas that did not have an existing local option sales tax (LOST) to adopt one on an expedited schedule. Iowa City, as a city with more than 50% of the population in Johnson County, authorized a special election for Johnson County communities to adopt a 1% LOST through a resolution on February 24, 2009. The ensuing special election was held May 5, 2009, and the referendum was successful and a 1% sales tax was instituted for 4 years starting July 1, 2009. The local option sales tax subsequently expired on June 30, 2013. Below is the summary of the collections and uses for the Local Option Sales Tax. Actual FY2010 Actual FY2011 Actual FY2012 Actual FY2013 FY2014 and Later Total Receipts: Local Option Sales Tax Collections $ 7,015,90 4 $ 8,505,06 6 $ 8,746,31 0 $ 8,615,66 9 $ 2,136,644 $ 35,019,592 .14 (Cash basis) Reconcile Uses: South Wastewater Treatment Plant $ 63,721 $ 950,387 $ 479,401 $ 7,116,49 1 $ - $ 8,610,000 Gateway Project $ 3,423 $ 452,623 $ 481,568 $ - $ 25,471,97 8 26,409,592 35,019,592 Utility Franchise Tax The utility franchise tax is a fee on gas and electric utility customers' bills that can be used to cover the City's expenses to administer utility companies' use of the City's right-of-way. Senate File 478 was enacted by the Iowa state legislature during its 2009 session, establishing cities' right to impose a franchise tax on gas and electric utilities up to 5%. On February 16, 2010, the Iowa City Council passed and approved an ordinance establishing a one percent (1%) tax to be expended for the following purposes: 1) Inspecting, supervising and otherwise regulating the MidAmerican Energy Company's gas and electric franchises. 2) Public safety, including the equipping of fire, police and emergency services. 3) Public infrastructure to support commercial and industrial economic development. Of the $895,000 estimate for FY2015, approximately $602,000 will remain in the City's General Fund for maintenance of the right-of-way and operational costs associated with Fire Station #4. The remaining $293,000 is for recurring Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) in the right of way including moving electrical wires underground and street improvements. Local Option Sales Tax (Proposed The current proposed sales tax is a 1% local option sales tax. In order for Iowa City to adopt a local option sales tax, the referendum must be adopted by a majority of voters in the contiguous municipalities. Iowa City, Coralville, North Liberty, University Heights, and Tiffin are all contiguous which means that more than fifty percent (50%) of the total votes cast in Iowa City and these five communities must be in favor of the sales tax for it to be adopted. The referendum will be held at the November 4 General Election. The current proposed uses for Iowa City are: 1) 40% for property tax relief 2) 50% for maintenance, repair, construction and reconstruction of public streets, trails, and associated infrastructure 3) 10% for program and initiatives that increase affordable housing, with no less than 75% of said 10% to be allocated for programs and initiatives that increase affordable housing for households at or below 80% of median income as defined annually in accordance with federal law The proposed sales tax is to have a 10 year sunset unless changed by Johnson County. Estimated revenue is between $9 million and $12 million dollars annually. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Dennis Bockenstedt Finance Director 410 E.
