Larson/ ar& working on Ulat as much as w~ can I w,)uld asl: you to.11
peopl~ m conc~rned about what w~ ar~ dOing, th~y should come
ootor~ us also and add thm vOices to yours
St JOhn/ I agree WIth that In fact, I think that a lot of poople do oppose It
and has expressed that Intmst to me and I'm sure they have to
you In case you are not gelUng the mmage, you sUIl hav&-
Larson/ I haven't had a single comment against Walnut Ridge other than
yours I'd ~lcome hearing Irom people lllavell't
St. John/ When they see their Increas\?d sewer ra~sfor a subdiVision that
nmr got on 11M then they will 00 giving you a call but you probably
won't 00 In town then
Nov / I want to say one more thing about Increased sewer rates. Because of
many requirements, sewer rates are gOing to go up and we were given
this sewer ra~ as I ~ of total revenues And If you divide that I~
among all of the sewer users, It Is gOing to 00 minute TM rates are
gOing to go up a lot more due to due to a lot of oUler factors Nothing
to do With development.
St. John/l still think, then In conclusion, I really do feel that you WIll ~ tn
the long term that What I'm s~aklng about tonight Is comet. J'm
sorry that I'll have to 00 the one that I told you so. The same type of
mentality that Is oolng applied here today was applled on the Cliff
Apartments and many other areas In this community that I'm lust
appalled by, And I wouldn't come here and speak out and take this
type of risk, per50nally,ls I didn't feel Ulat you were lust SUCking

McDonald/l'll now reoop.:n Ule public Ilearlllg Is there anyonto who would
llko: to address the councIl on thIS !t.t>m'
St John/ Good evening My name IS Jim St John. and I'm a rvsldent 01 Iowa
CIty I've b%n wat(hlng this proposal come to the Planning and
Zoning CommISSion and now It IS belore you, the council members 01
the CIty 01 Iowa CIty I think It'S really Important lor US to take a look
at thiS archlt&<ts renderIng again, ~ause like I said thIS past
summer, Ulat tt's really putting a pretty frame on an ugly picture I
know that this land that you're consldertng to rezone to large OM acre
tracts, parcels, With I think the cream 01 the clUes' amentties, Ulat IS
sewer, pollee, and fire prot&<tion And yet, all the rest 01 tho residents
In this community hm had to pay lor all the other amenIties they
receive So this subdivisIon IS completely dltterent and not akin to the
development Uiat wvlowa CIUans are us~ to
In order to comp.:te With the county, perhaps we need to take a
look at Ule larger picture and talk about federal land use pottcles, state
land use pottcles, and even county and regional land use pottcles and
see that we're ro:ally only competing agaInst ourso:lves Do:vo:lopment
lor the sake 01 dmlopment IS not good developmen~ It's not planned
development. The cost of extending these services goes way beyond a
mlltton dollars alluded to earlier, lust for the so:~r, The long term
costs are much greater and the next council- the councils before you
and the councils after you Will hm to contend With the decision you
make In this subdivision and other subdivisions, There was talk of,
from what I undo:rstand, the Informal mevtlng, that there's pressure
on the west side 01 Iowa City that the east side- elCCuse me, the east
side of Iowa City has pressure on It that the west side it We develop
there Will alleviate that I'm famlllar With Southwest Estates, and I
don't know anyone in this town who hasn't read a Realtor's gUide
lately that hasn't seen plenty 01 lots available on the west Side
There's plenty of lots available on the east side thanks to your
annexaUon beyond Scott Boulevard And so I UlInk what we're doing
Is ~'re actually being penny' saving pennies and being pound foottsh
at the same time, not to re-coln a phrase But I think In this particular
case, I think It would behoove each and everyone of you to go Into
the park that has this Mormon Burial ground In It to see what kind 01
environmental Impact a large subdIVision of tts kInd Will have on this
very prIstine loWland woodland There are beaver dams In thiS parI:
There's deer TMre's even a skun\: or two But I don't \:now which
ones are wlltcll any more as lar as Ule s\:unks In this city go, because

what ~ n~ to do IS r~allz.: that d('v~lopm~nt bo?g~ttlng
d~v~lopment IS nol a healthy thmg ~velopment on th~ periphery IS
vory non -cost.et/octlve 10 the long term Also, I don't know, Ir
memory serves me correcUy, but It seems like a locallzoo voodoo
~onomlcs at work her~, sUbsIdIZing a large scale upper class
development when, on the other hand, on information IS the Housing
Task Fore Mayoo a mtllton dollars Isn't a lot of money for you to
s~nd but It IS tax pay.:rs dollars, and It was the lorty million dollar
se~r tmtment plant that Ul~ taxpayers did pay ror So a million
dollars Is still a lot or money to us taxpayers To put that In a larg~
corporaUon, such as Southgate, and not consider the long term costs,ls
really- IS not really looking at the sltuaUon as clearly as other councils
may 00 able to look at it In the ruture
Ifl cl~lflg, I wouid ask that each memoor go out to this ar~a and
s* the typt' or park land that IS there Consider environmental
Impact statements ror thiS area, or even conSider that there won't 00
sidewalks here and It'll 00 OM acre tracts or land where I 1*1 there
won't 00 access ror handicapped In motorIZed whool chairs or wheel
chairs at all, Without sldowalks, and also str*ts that have no gutters
I understand the whole picture looks really nice and It'd be nice to
live on an acre or land Inside the city, but it-It's an expensive city to .
live In and Ir those poople who want to live on parcels such as that
should 00 asked to pay that price, not have the clUzens of Iowa City
paying the price for Ulem And consider putung that mllllon dollars to
USe In other areas that Will most oonefit.llke the Sycamore View
project that you've alltoutOO as your token contribution to the poople
In this community who have loss money to spt'nd on housing,
Consider that a million dollars to them and the other citizens that are
even moderate to middle income, llllnklng that this Is a bit exc&sslve,
that tMre's no MOO to really compete With the county in this rashlon
Thank you very much
McDonald/ Thank you. Mr St John Is ti1&re anyone else who would like to
address the council on this Item? More I close the public hearing on
this, a couple of things. First or all, I do think that a million dollars Is a
lot of monoy to anyone It certainly IS to all of us sitting up here The
plan that was informally discussed last night, and what council
Informally approved last night. IS a scaled down version of that. It's
still gOing to amount to some money that's gomg to be rront endoo, but
It's not going to 00 given over to tillS development Tllere are gOing to
00 services put In by Ule city, but Ulat money IS gOing to be recoupt'd
by the city as those lots are sold and as dl.lvelopment occurs WI.l had

McDI never had any tn~nUon ThiS counCIl had nev~r had any mll>nUon at

!:ubby I Can I ask a quesUon about thiS I was thtnklng about thiS last night
and all 01 today I guess I'm not clear about repayment What we're
talking about Is putting out a bond, figuring out all those costs 01
Inoorest and extranoous costs and dividing it by the number 01 acres
to get a price per acre so that II somOOM comes In to our system they
pay a certain amount I t comes back to the city
MCDI Upon tM sale 01 tM pro~rty
Kubby I How Wi! pay for Ulose bonds In Iteu or them being sold right away
OOcause they are all not going to be buill right away-they are not all
going to be sold right away, IS that sewer ra~s WIll pay the payment
01 tho bonds. Correct?
McDI Sewer revenues.
Kubbyl Through my sewer bill.
McDI Money we have Within the sysoom
Kubby I That means that individual ciUzens are paying. I guess that Is my
qlllfStlon, Wllan Ulat money gets repaid to Ule city, I personally put
extra money oul It Is above and beyond my taxes, WlIIl get money
back. Willi get a repayment,
Larsonl You Will get It back In the form of future revenue Incroasos for the
sewer revenue fund not being as high as they would have been
otherWise,
Kubby II want to make sure that money coming back IS then targetOO to
thaI May be all of you made that assumption But it was nmr
expltclUy statOO That that money would be,
Larson/lt has to go back that way.
McDI Do you want to comment on that Swve
Atklns/lt Is a l&gal obligation, It has to come bad: Into the sower fund
Larson/l just want to comct a couple 01 things that Mr Sl John said I
applaud his Inoorest In city affairs but I can't let him leave the public
With a mistaken Impression No tax payer IS paying for this
development The city IS fronting the money to furnish the sewer
Ilnes to the development only until those lots are sold and Ulen the
money Is returned to the sewer revenue rund So that no one IS

v&ry f&w vacant arm I&ft tn our city It mak&s a lot of sen~ to allow

WIll 00 mQr(l aC(~lblo? to wMo?l chairs tMn almost any otMr In tM
city because It Will have trails all through th& developmvnt and It Will
have Wld& str&ets and certainly Will be more accesstbl& than any

s&rvlc&s that are not going to be paid lor This developm&nt alone Will
result In building in th& amount of 25, 30 million dollars on the tax
rolls wMn It Is fully dmloped Talking about $200,000, 300,000
hous&s,on& per acre, and a hundr&d acrv area, To m& that Isn't giving
a dev&loper anything. That Is allOWing the city to develop In a way
that Is consistent With &nvlronmentally sensitive areas, that Is
consistent Wltil wanting the city to have tnflll development that Is
amenable to people that up to tills point hm been taking most of
their plans for large houses outside the city, It Isn't a competition
With tho county or city or anything else, It Is a question that If wo
have some land that Is developable and peoplo want to develop, Let's
make sure it is done In a way that Is sensitive to all the needs of the
community We took great care to do lJ1al (don't UHnk Mr. Sl John's
motivations and desires to see lJ1lngs develOP are improper. I think
he was just given poor facts about wllat this development entails, It
he kn&w those lacts he would be In agrooment With what W& did. I
Invite you to talk some more about that.
Kubby 111*1 you're negloctlng to say that there IS an olem&nt 01 rlsl: here

Gentry / You get repaId when there IS a tap-In Into Ule sanitary se~r

the lots, we would get paId then And that would be typical 1 would
agr~ I don't mean to n&gle<t to say anything Thm IS that rISk II
that land never develOps, II thiS land IS nev€-r tapped on to tht' sewer
lines, then we wouldn't get paid back But I haven't Mard lrom
anyon& Ulat thUlI:s Ulat anyUllng but a very mlnhnal risk given Ule
small amount 01 Mvelopableland we have Within the city limits
Jim St John/ I appre<late the opportunity to have a rebuttal With all due
respe<t Mr Larson I wonder sometimes wllether you don't represent
Southgate dev&lopment vs the citizens that elG(ted you to your
position as councUmember That's another thing I would like to talk to
you about That's another thing Maybe your lacts aren't stralgh~too.
~\!W the way I\OOk at It It seem Uke we come Into the city council
m%ting, lor mal as It may be, and you already all made up your mind
What Is the purpose 01 this m%ting Just lor theatrics? 1 must say.
Larsonl W& made a decision last night
Courtney / This thing has bevn going on lor months
St JOhnl You know and I know It has Imn and I am also aware that
probably more real estate Will sale, more Insurance Will sale, and moro
logal business Will be conjured up and then the people living In those
homeS Will have more money to InVest, Mr Courtney.
Courtney / So, what IS wrong With that,
St John? Nothing is the matter With that
Courtney lIt Is called economy, This economy Is in bad enough sha~,
St, Johnl Fronting large multi-million dollar corporations Is not the way we
want to do business In my community. That Is what I call, or at Imt
on presidential candidate rolled who Is our President right now,
voodoo economics Subsidizing the already haves, I think that Is
something a more serious problem here I don't know how truly
representative you are as a council II you are not responsive to what
my concerns are, And I'm telllng you that I have spoken With dozens
.hundreds of citizens about this same Issue Not only are they
concerned about the environment, I have lound In the past and 1
don't know about the future Without watchdogs like mys&lf that you
are not truly responsive about the environment I ask you II you have
ever been In this park that adjOinS this pro~rty II no~ why not?
And secondly, If we are gOing to develOp this land I think We need to
put stronger safeguards. You know one good Windy day like today

about the way It was done, With this dmlopment. bocause this
development was Invented In response to the city council
unanimously at a planning session de<ld&d that we wan~ to look Into
a large lot development. Now some people on council's motivation for
wanting to 1001: In to large lot development was an e<onomlc
development typ& thing while others thought that the value of a largll
lot development Is that It can 00 done In a more envlronm.:ntally
careful manner That you could pr&sorvo more trees That you could
placo your house on a lot In a way so as to preserve more
envlronmentalleatures And as we develop the remaining land loft
WIthin the city Umlts, that thiS was an option to help preserve some 01
the natural areas WIthin our city Again, I don't want pwple to thlnl:

McD/ Moved by Courtney, second by Novick to approve those appointments.
Discussion
Kubby / I would like to say a little bit Last night ~ got Into a discussion
that we frequently get Into about how tMse appointments are made
From that I've learned that What Is helprul to council Is - What Is
h~lpful for Randy and me, too, Is If people don't know you Is to call
councilmembers so that we can get to know you more than just What
IS on your application I think more than tha~ Is that we need to I~t
Ule public know Ulat If you are Interested on being on a Board or
Commission, that really Information on an application Is not quite
~nvugh, So ~ nm! to makq our application proVide morq
Information or have a cover shoot saying a helpful hint Is to call
council members and here are their phone numbers, I would be
Interested In having us have a cover shoot so that If , not necessarily
the oUlcla! rules, but or the real rules of the game are If people don't
know your quallrtcations personally, that the application Is not
enough, We need to make It fair. Have everyone lIave access to the
Boards and Commissions, To let them know What the real rules are,
They need to call a council member
Larson/It Is helpful to me to know
TAPE CHANGE TO REEL 90-63, SIDE 1
I,
"
,
quallrtcations, More than what can show up on the application form.
SO What you do sometimes Is ask rellow councilmemoors about hOw
they feel about people they may know that hm applied to avoid
giving that undue advantage to people that are part or an old boy or
old woman type network, It Is helpful to at least me and I think
Karen reels the same way. If you are Interested In applying for a
Commission and you want to talk to a council member, we don't mind
hearing from you at all. It IS not a burden or anything
KUbby / But more than that. If you don't call and nobody knows What your
abilities are, your chances are less, People lust need to know Ulat and
I would like to facilitate getting that Information out. SO when people
pick up an application they know W1lat they need to do to hm equal
access to us knoWing their abtUties and getting a chance at being on a
Board or Commission, Is anyone else Interested tn having a cover
sheet With a sentence saying It Is a good Idea to call around and here
are the numbers
McD/ I don't know If It IS roally necessary to. I think ~ople are aware of
Ulat. I get Ule Impression and maybe It's Ule wrong Impression And
you are right, we've had this discussion many times

Karen/ (lust want to tak~ care of It A cover sh~t muld tal:e care of It
McD/ ( get the ImpreSSion that you thInk Ume IS a conspiracy gOing on here
on appointments There Isn't I have never run In to anyUllng There
are no rules to the game There IS not a certain format that eXists that
1/ a ~rson IS Interested In serving that 1/ you do thiS, thiS, thiS, this
and thiS, that guarantees that you are gOing to get appointed It IS a
combination of things I think that
Kubby / People Who are already Involve<! have a hlgh~r chance of being
Involved on the Boards and Commissions oo<aus~ w: ar~ alllnvolve<\
In the community so we know people And (lust want to make that
plaYing llo(d a IiUlo 4X\yal so Ulat mQre ~ple have a<<e~ to ~rvlng
In this community, And ( don't think It IS conspiracy It Is lust a
natural thing that hap~ns. That when there are three applicants and
you know and there Is one o~nlng and couple people on councU know
that ~rson and know that they are qualified. The othllr people may
be lust as qualified but we can't really tell from the application. And
so, even though your Intent IS not that b&(au~ you know them they
have a better chance, that's What hap~ns, ('m trying to find an easy
way that Is no big deal. Wo can use S(rap pa~r. I'm not going to
stand by the city clerks office and tell overybody this,
Courtney II don't think It Will make any dlHerence to me, It tm people aro
equally qualified and I know one personally and not the other one, I'll
tell you Which way ('m gOing to go, Just b&(au~ ( got a phone call
from the other ~rson doesn't mean I'm gotng to vote for them
Kubby I I'm saying you can ask them questions and find out more about who
they are, They can have a choice Ulen to know that that Is helpful, It
d~sn't guarantee anybody anything,
Courtney I Personally, ('ve been called many times over the years by people
wanting to explain their virtues and qualifications for Boards, I'm not
disappointed With the caliS I got
Kubby / Since I've been on the councU there has been one ~rson, and that IS
Robin, who w: got tonight on th& HOUSing Commission Ulat nobody
knew and nobody got a phone call from
McD/ Since you'vo been on? I can't tell you how many calls I've gotten
through the years I lust don't think It necessary I think peoplo are
aware.
Kubby / What your saying ts that some poople do call you but those people
don't get appointed Because we know nothing about them except
What IS on pa~r I'm not trYing to make thiS Into a big Issue, A cover
sheet seems like a Simple Ullng tJlat doosn't sound very objectionable
might be muld be helpful to poople
o ;~~ 'I [I t]
'9 page 3
Nov / I have just one objection, I don't feel too comfortabl& with this because
It may app&ar on the cover sheet that everyone must call seven
councUmembers It they apply for a Commission. I r&ally don't think
they have to do that. I don't want to suggest that they do that
Kubby I Wel1, you don't say cal1 al1 councUmemoors, You say that 1t'ls
helpful to cal1 a few, Here Is everybody's number.
McD/I'm happy with the system that we have, Karen,
Kubby I I lust wanted to voice that out loud and nobody el~ Is Interested.
McDI I'm sure this subject s*ms to 'vm~ up from tlm~ to tlm~, I think that
Is tine, It gives the opportunity to, as ~ go through our discussion,
for poople to get an understanding of how It works. As I told you last
night, sometimes It can work against poople It you happ&n to know
them, too,
Kubby / I haven't seen that too often, As often as the other, Thanl: you for
hearing me.
McDI We do have a motion on the floor. All those In favor of that motion
signify by saying aye.

McD/ City Counclllntormation
Kubby / I wanted to say happy birthday to somebody II Ghandl 'fNre alive,
he would 00 120 years old today I thought poople should know that
We shouldn't forget Important poople
I also want to let poople know about forums the University IS
sponsoring about a survey that they have dOM about attitud~ about
racism In Iowa City and on campus Hopefully the~ forums are not
lust discussing Ule r~ults of the survey but may come to some action
Some groups forming some long oorm coalition for discussing racism In
Iowa City And actually tonlgll~ until nine o'clock. so you have a half
hour to get down to Shambaugh Also, Thursday. 330,530, you can
go to McBride Auditorium to hear this discussion
And the last thing I wanted to say Is sometim~ I get uncomfortable
when cltizons come In With a view point It Is not lust tonight but
there has boon other tim~ And I fool that council gets really
defensive when we get criticized.
Courtney/ That Is be(aU~ they aro attacking us. It's human nature to get
defensive, I'll continue to get defensive
Larson/ Were you talking about anyone spectflc
Kubby / I think It Is fine to challenge citizens as they challenge us, I think
that Is really hoalthy. But sometimes It gets to the point that I get
really uncomfortable with It There are dlllerent ways to expr~s
your defenslven~s. I would like council members to think about that.
AS ( ask respect of them to IIsoon to my point of view Wlllch may bo
very different Ulan theirs, I think they deserve my respe<t to IIsoon
to thom ovon If I totally disagree. Wo do that. We dlsagroo aU the
time. We do a fairly 800<1 lob of IIsoonlng to each other Some days
are betoor than others.
Courtney / I lose my respect In a hurry when someone Impll~ that there
may be some skunks Sitting up here
Kubby / I get uncomfortable With us getting defensive as a group Thank
you, that's all
Larson/ Only one comment. That Is that the pollee chief briefed us last night
and received our bleSSing to go ahead With a program of developing
community awareness about all the different Individuals and groups
that Inooract In helping dtrrerent aspects of substance abuse problems
In Iowa City, Including, of course, the primary substance that Is
abused anyWllm, alcohol He Will be going to Ule community groups
and all the different factors that we have In our community to battle
this problem. I hope that you Will cooperaoo tn trying to put logeUler
all the efforts we have to get at the problem, This Is a problem shared

Courtney / Just t~ Items, I had a call today, (guess J'm the koo(*r of
Highway I, have been for many years Tills one Is a IItUe farther out.
There are some citizens out where Morman Trek loins, at the Honda
dealership there, are becoming more concerned about Ule accidents
that are happonlng out there, I would like to have us get Into the
process of ~rklng With the state for either trying to lower the Spood
limit or some sort of tralltc control. I know It Is very dllllcult to work
WIth the state. We have been trying It for years closer In to town, It
was an ofltclal roqu('St and I'm passing It along,
Secondly, Jlust want to make a comment about an article that
appeared In a local publlcaUon last wook that I think cost the
taxpayers a lot of money needlessly. The publication shows great
lrr('Sponslblllty by tho author and the people that prlntOO It about
lumping ollll1e bridges down In Ute area of Ute union. After you have
been Indulging all night and Utey oven went so far as to give Ute
details of Whon It Is the safest Utat Ute police are working the
downtown bars and so on And sure enough, Ute day after the
publication came out, we had someone spotle<! lumping ollll1e bridge
Law enforcement otllcers and rescue ellorts went on for three or four
hours Utrough Ule night trying to ltnd a person because know one saw
Utom como back out of Uto river I Utlnk Utat wo should put people on
notice-ll:now It Is going to get too cold here soon, But Utat we talk to
University security and that we maybe run by Utose bridges a few

McDI We do have a report Irom Ule city attorney

It IS a concurrence With a unanimous zoning code Interpretation paMI
decision made after long hours of meeting oot~n Doug Boothroy,

McDI The length or time would go from Octooor 3 through Octooor 15
Gentry / Pleaw don't walt until the last minute so that we WOUld 11m to
argue about jurisdIction,
Novlck/ I would like to mention the ract that an app&al to the Board or
Adjustment does r&qulre a r*,
McD/ That's negoUable,
Larson/ Are you dOM, Linda,
Gentry/ Yes, unless you want me to say more
Larson/ No, I just want to make a couple or brier comments. I don't want to
get Into debate about the Issue or anything but I want to lust say two
things really, One Is Ulat this Issue ended up oolng an InterpretaUon
and a quesUon about deClnlUons or the zoning ordinance. That Is not a
task ror the city council, That task by city ordinance In Iowa City Is
lert to the ZIP panel, NOM or us on council hm anything to do With
that. Without changing the ordinance that has InterpretaUons and
rendering decisions on deClnlUons or the zoning ordinance to take that
away rrom the ZIP paMI, That was the Zip panel's rule by law Some
or us might 11m Wished that It Is not so Some or us might 00
relieved Ulat It Is. There wasn't anything we could do laWfUlly that
could change Ulat The Board or Adjustment, as It turns out, Is the
public body WI1ere this matter can b& presentod With evidence and
Where they can make a ractual decision on the merits I think that we
all recognize that It may end up there. I hope that everyone doesn't
r(>elllke this is lust a question Where they didn't get to register their
Input It IS lust a question or whether Input would 00 In front 01 city
council or In rront or the Board or Adjustment And that place Is tM
Board or Adjustment U anyone appeals the decisIon to Ule ZIP panel
and I'm sure they will Thank you

McDI Moved by Courtn~y, second by Hov to adopt the resolution DIswsslon
Kubby II lust wanlOO to say that I understand that the council as a whole
agreed that large lot development was something we wanted WIthin
the city limits and that It wasn't as Simple as having some zoning
There are other things ~ have to do But I guess I'm finding It very
Ironic tllat when we talk about Sycamore View that we want to be In
and out and not !xl Involve lor longer than we need to. But on thiS
particular development ~ are Wllllng to be Involve lor ten to lifteen
yms And I guess I didn't Interpret that to be a lorm 01 corporate aid
which
TAPE CHANGE TO REEL 90,33, SIDE 2
I guess I disagree Wltll Daryl that It Isn't leap Irog development It
may be out 01 our control That we can't lacllltate development on the
University, although I don't necessarily think that Is true elUler, But,
Indeed, It Is leap Irog development And that the way our Comp, Plan
Is sot rortll tllat ~ have made a policy that tr you are not doing
contiguous development then the developor pays ror thoso costs. I
understand the logic or the reasons or other council members wanting
to decide to do It dirrerenUy. But I disagree. And, therelore, I'm going
to vote no
Courtney / How do you propose that we have any Input to the development
01 University owned properly wilen councils ror a hundred years
haven't been able to have any Input,
Kubby /1 don't think that ~ talked to the University very much.
Courtney/It doesn't matter. They don't have to comply With any 01 our
zoning regulations and zoning codes or anything.
Kubby / And that Is the price or doing business on the particular piece 01
property That II tlle developer wants to do It then that Is the price
that they pay. Itls a nice piece 01 land There are gOing to be big
houses. I am not convinced that they are gOing to be sold so quickly
Although they might be tapped on more quickly than they are sold I
still.there Is just this thing nagging me that this Is a lorm or corporate
ald. I do understand that we are going to be paid back, tllat It Is a
loan and not a subsidy. I understand that I don't like tlle city being
Involved lor that long 01 time to help one development
McDI First 01 all, we talk to tlle University all the time All the time It Is
continual Public Works probably has contact-
Kubby / In tills particular one I know Ulat we have
tJ i~~ 'I t] .c,
'13 page 2
McDI Not only that but on alllssuo?s Wf! rf!ally do Thm Is constant dialogue
going on It nf!ver Cf!aS~s
Second 01 all Your statement on-when was It fiver stated by council
or anyone SlUing on thiS body that ~ wanted to get In and out 01
Sycamore View
Kubby / That IInanclally
McD/ We reviewed a lot 01 dlflerent options That was one option that WIJ
had If you remember correctly, we talk&<! about lour or five
dltterent thin&$ that Wf: might bot atl~ to do to per!>>tu3oo that type 01
thing.
Kubby / Right, But not With the city tvlng lnvolv&<!
Courtney / I worked at length last night to come up With some sort 01 a plan
to perpetuate that money Irom the land It all went lor naught,
Larson/ I think Sycamore View is an exactly analogous to What we aro dOing
with Walnut Ridge oo<au~ In Walnut Ridge we are Irontlng the
money for the sewer 11M and ~ are going to get back In ten or ftl~n
years through the tap on fee or In a period of time Including ten or
ftlteen years. It may be much less than that It may be somewhat
more, No one can know lor sure, Why I think that Is exactly
analogous to Sycamore View Is that In Sycamore View we are
prOViding the land for Iree, And ~ are not going to get back until
that property Is sold. And as our stall members told us last nlgh~
they anticipate that probably two thirds 01 those properties will not
be sold. That poople will move Into them and live In tllem the rest 01
thlllr lives. ~use that Is kind 01 pattern With that income level that
once they get Into one house They may just stay there lor the Whole
time, They have never had a house belore That's Why I think It Is
Identical. We make an Investment 01 giving them that land,just
keeping a silence second mortgage so that they can't sell the land and
get a Wlndlall proUt from it I guess that Is where I thought what we
are being criticized for earlier was without basis We're ext&ndlng a
loan to an area 01 land to tv developed for the future tvneUt 01 the
community. We are doing the same thing In the Sycamore View
project We are extending that land Iree for those people to live tllere
and not asl:lng for It back for mayoo many years It Is also analogous
to me, lor Instance, In building a street at the &<!ge 01 town like $(ott
Blvd, We are Investing In the future development 01 that area, It
may be many years until the area IS fully develOped to take
advantage 01 that autobahn we got out there But we decide as a
council wll&ther dlllerent expenditures are Investments to
Inlrastructure towards the future or not, I think II you can make a

Larson/ criticism 01 government over the past twenty yms IS that they
haven't InvestOO enough In Inlrastructure to develop to Ul& luture
Inlrastructure Is bridges and roads and ~W&rs I think It Is a good
thing to do lor your community when you have a community that Is
ratOO OM of the top two or thr~ groWing communities In the slaw
That Is why I'm really to do this I doesn't hm anything to do With
Southgate Development It has to do With lactthat It Is hard to ltnd
good land to develop In Iowa City. 'don't think this IS leap lrog
\)&cause the University oolng In oot~n means ll1at W& are !lot I&ap
lrogglng over a bunch 01 vacant land \)&cause It Is not as desirable or
oxponslve or as marketable to sell, They are leap lrogglng land ll1at
they can't develop \)&cause the University, not having to pay taxos on
It, Will koop it lor twenty or thirty years to SOO Illl1ey ever do have a
need lor Il There Is no cost assoclatOO to them They don't want to 00
in the private development business That's why I think It a wt~
declston for us. And 'just think that It Is not looking at Ul~ closely
enough to soo it as an unWise decision 'recognize that you think
everyone has put a lot 01 thought Into Il 'can understand a view
point that would say W& don't n&Od to do all these kinds 01
Investments In luture growth because mayoo you don't want as much
future growth as we've had. But I think It you bellm that W& no&<! to
Invest In these kinds 01 things to enable good types 01 progress, then I
think this ts a pretty easy vow, That is why I'll vote In lavor olll
Nov /1 think, Randy, willie you are on this business of sewer lines You
forgot to say tho city did put In S9W&r lines In Sycamore View Without
tap on fees,
Larson/ Sure. An instance Where W& did more for a low Income type
constituency then wo are doing for Southgate D&velopment
Kubby II think that Is whm W& Mod to concentrate There are not houses,
there are vory lew hOuses $65,000 and below There are houses In
the country, there are housos In town that are not old and that are at
Ule upper Income bracket I f~lthat W& nood to aid that market as
much as W& need to aid the other
Larson/ Well, there Is no doubt that W& ne&<! to aid the low Income housing
markel Jthlnk that we aro doing a couplo of things. We have all
acknowledged that Sycamore Vlow ts the ltrst step, We have also put
together the Housing Task Force which is having tholr meeltngs. Wo
hoping that we can get more aggressive I think people lelt like
Sycamore View was a test prolect I do want to correct a little about
wilen we lronted the money for the sewer lines tnto Sycamore View
Wo are going to get that paid back We got a loan Irom the staw,a no
,
, ,
a e ' I " , , I
#13''1'1
Interest loan Irom the state to pay for that work We are gOing to
charge Ulat back from the prof>'lrty taXI?S Ulat we receive once those
buildings are built and sold Again, that's not a gill It Is the same
kind of thing We m investing In Il We are gOing to get It back,
Thore Is no subsidy there. I think they are reaUy pretty analogous
Kubby / Except for that the state of the people who are gOing to live there, I
guess I'm lust hoping to start rejX'ating mysell I don't believe, I think
thiS kind of development IS gOing to hap~n on Its own, You don't
neod to help out Tho lower Income development is not gOing to
hapjX'n unless we become part of It
Larsonl That was certainly an option. To lust say no here and ho~ that the
large lot development occurred Without any Incentive or
encouragement by the city That's the pollcy decision that we are
making. Do we give a IIttie help that we think is a reasonable thing to
do or do we walt and s~ If somebody does this Without any help at
all.
KUbby I Right And I'm answering that no and the rest of you are answering
It yes,
Larson/But that is a fair statement of the decision,
Nov II have to also mention we did have the option of aUoWing this
development within Individual soptic systems or cenltallteatment
facilities. And this would not have involved city frontage money, And
'1;0 chl)SO to put In the requirement of sanitary sewer,
Larson/llocause of the desire to not have septic tanks because of tho
environmental consequences.

McD/ Moved by KUbby. seconded by Nov to adopt Ulll resolution DIscussion
Kubby / I had a question lor Ron Can you give me some samples 01 small
Items and some larger dollar Items
Ron Henderson/ The small Items are obviously for maintenance neWs, light
switches on up The larger Items are, for Instances, we just purchases
some added computer equipment It's primarily directed as an
aggregate purChase I think thiS grows out of the HUD scandal and we
just have to pay for It In the ~nse of having more Ilterature to read
K\!bby II)Q YOlJ have any Idea WI1at percentage of dollar wise of Item Wise or
volume wise of things that you purchase as paper Do you use much
paper
Ron Hendersonl We drown In a flood of paper Probably, It Is not a large,
but a significant cost
Kubby / Even though the Intent of this Is to get to the fairness of bidding,
Procurement Is procurement I would love to soo that when you are
going out soliciting bids lor paper products that the prelerred material
00 recycled paper.
Hendersonl We don't purcha~ a lot 01 our Items outside of the purchasing
authority done through the City of Iowa City, They have already done
all the formal bidding that moots the criteria of HUD, So we lust lag on
along that We are, In essence, a city polley, this Is directed basically
at meeting some HUD requirements, The golden rule They hm the
gold, they make the rules,

motion to deler
Moved by Nov, seconded by Larson to deler
Mr Oakes, you can go ahead
Dean Oakes/ Just wanted to ask about a letter that I had written to council
perhaps tw\) w~ks ago about taking-waiving the requirement lor the
storm water requirement lor the 67 acres to the north 01 the IdyllWlld
Subdivision I haven't heard anyUllng back dlrecUy I was wondering
whal
MeDII think possibly the oost answer to that W\)uld 00 IS that Is still being
reviewed,
Atklns/ I can answer, John. TM letter We have prepared a response We
decided not to send it to you all. In addition you also receivoo In this
paCket another lengthy request lor addltionaltnlormation about the
whole process. I want to assure you that we are trying to answer each
and every Item 01 correspondence, You keep bringing It In and
bringing It In, We have to k~p preparing more and more reports, We
do have an answer prepared,
McD/ There Is a response to Dean that is ready?
Atkins/ Yes, I haven't read It and you should have It in a couple of days,
Courtney I That Is a stall response not a council response,
Atkins/It is a response to you,
Larson/ So we have not bOen presented WIth any action on your letter, Staff
Is going to tell us what they think 01 t11at, What our options are, We
haven't made any polley decision, We hmn't wen facoo with It yvt.
Oakes/ The reason I came to the council dlrecUy is that 1 feel Ule council Is
the only body that can do that and has the power to do thal
Larson/ I think that you are right about that but I think we all feel like we
nooo some Information as to what staff's reaction Is to the factual
points. What would be the affect 01 waiVing the requirement and
those kinds of things
Oakes/I Ullnk It will show out that by waiving Ule reqUirement It will
alleviate a lot of concern in the ma for the stormwater management
and having to take It some place
Larson/ You got to understand that you know a lot more about these Issues
than we do We have to rely on staff to Inlorm us.
Oakes I I don't know Is that is true I'm glad wo are dealing WIth contiguous
development
Larson/ There WIll be some leap frogglng In your development but they will
be down by Uleir detention pond

Atklns/ It Is really very much up to you
Larson/ It Is too Important an Issue to not have Bill and Susan UJere They
are out at the Chuck Grassley attendance award race I wouldn't want
to discuss It WIthOUt them
Atklns/ It's really up to you If you want to diSCUSS It and begin discussion
I can certainly.
Larson/ Do you know their f*lIngs
Atklns/ I have spoken v.,ith Bill
McDI Bill has IndlcaW<! some leellngs Susan has not, It Is an Important
Issue,
Atklns/ I'm more than wilUng to go back to them and saying we nm two
more weeks If UJat's your pleasure
McD/ I think UJatltls Important enough that ~ hm the lull council
Larsonl Too Important to do WiUJout them
Kubby II agree with thal But I also agree that this has been going on lor a
long time, I feel like we need to get some decisions made, Is there
anyway to do bOth. Along time ago we talked abOut meeting to get
our list of thirty live things going, Are we going to 00 doing that this
month at all,
McD/1 don't know mether It will be this month or nol We are going to get
cranking up again on some of those things and some 01 UJose ISSUes,
But there really Isn't, as far as this particular Item, We do have some
time, As far as you know It Is not-
Atklns/ To UJe oost of my knowledge". We o~ them an answer on ChOOSing
to proceed or not.
Larson/ The reason I think that it should be held Is 1) UJe amount of money
Involved and 2) tho fact UJe It's an Issue of long range planning lor the
community I think UJo more perspecUves on UJat, UJe ootter
McDI I Intend to agree with you, WIUI the fUII-( tlllnk UJat It Is Important
we all 00 In attendance,
Atklns/lf you are not going to have an executive session, may I bring up
something that I should have brought up under my report?
McD/ Sure, go ahead.
Atklnsl You have a letter In your packet lrom Hawkeye Waste Systems and
I wanted you to know a few of the lacts before you decldo
Larsonl We should vote on this ordinance

McD/We are on - 20 adlournment
Larson/
Atklns/ I wanted to let you know that we have had continuing trouble WiUI
this company about payment From August 19a9 to August of this
year they sent us 34 checks lor payment Five of them are returned
for Insurrtclent funds. Now we have to walt anyWhere lrom II to 26
days belore we can receive payment alter our billing. Bocause 01 the
dlrrtculti~ we have had WIth Ulem we would hope Ulat you would
support us In continuing to require them to pay by elUler cash,
caShiers Check or some type of money order to guarantoo payment
Larson/ A money order Is not a hard thing to get, Is It?
Atkins! No. This Is a big company. Every time we have to walt 11.26 days
It Simply m~ans that all ol our cu'tomers at the landfill Who pay th~tr
bills prompuy end up SUbsidizing this operation Because that IS loss
of Income for us, ObVIOUSly we deposit it and get it Inv~ted
prompUy. We have told them.. This has ~n going on for years. For
one year they were really good and then they are right back Into Ule
same old habits, One In seven checks bounce or are returned to us
WiUllnsufflclent funds,
Larson! My only concern Is If they have had adequate notice that we
weren't going to tolerate It anymore.
Atklns/ I can give you letter allor letter that has been sent to these folks
Larson/ I'm pretty understanding by average folks bouncing a check. But
When a big company bounces Ulem routinely over Ule years,
Atkins! They use an out of Ule area bank If Uley simply had an account at
a local bank here the thing could be turned around In a matter of a
couple of days,
Larson/ Just so people understand that we told people they had to pay their
landfill charges by cashier's check They bounced SO many checks.
Gentry / Isn't part of the charge account agreement,
Atkins/ No, Ulls Is a different one We have another genUeman who was so
delinquent that we were about to shut him down
Gentry! No The new land account,charge account The agreement that we
drafted that would commence July I Included that prOVISion right up
front That If they bounce their check Uley would have to pay In cash
Larson/ I would be supportive 01 supporUng staff's position Mainly because
I don't think sending In a cashier's check Instead of a regular check Is
that big 01 deaL
McD/ Okay That's line
