To .Iarl oullS menlloned here Illhe Jln. 21.llnformll meellng 0( Ihe
clly council, Ihe council did receive .ome Inrormlllon rrom Ihe .Iarr al
Ihal parllcular lime on varlou. opllon.. Council directed Ilatr allhal
parllcular lime 10 look al olher allernlllve. and also 10 pUI.ome cosl
flaure. wllh Ihe opllon.lhll were belna dlsculled. AI Ihll parllcular
lime Ilso, berore any action wa.golnglo be liken by Ihe council on
Iny 0( Ihe allernlllves Ihal had been pro~ed 10 u., we had also said
lhlllhel'o would be In opporlunllY ror Ihe public loolpresslhelr
views on Ihese Illernalive. which Is whal wo aro going 10 allow
lonlghl. Oul flul 0( all Jon Davldlon, our planner, II going 10 briefly
go Ihrough IhOlO allernallve. wllh Ihe council and Ihen I will open II
up afler lhal.
Jerr Davld.onl Thank you Mr. Mayor. lam aolngl~ be very brier on my
remarks and Ihen ellborale on anYlhlnglhal you would like me 10
elaboralo on. I am sure Ihal by lhl.lime you are gelling qulle
ramlllar wllh Ihe Issue al hand. As Ihe MIYor Indlcaled, on Ihe 21s1
you received your Inlllallnformlllon aboullhls. You directed us al
Ihllllme 10 pUII08elher Informallon on Ihe npense Involved wllh
Ihe varlou. allernallves. Tho public works Ilafr has done Ihlland you
have received II. In addlllon you seolhe renderings here which give
some more Ipeclflc Inrormallon. Especially wllh respecllo dwelling
unlls Ihal would need 10 be removed ror Ihese IWO specific
allernallves. To rellerale or lusllO .Iarl. The Issues Ihal.lafr were
given Involve \WO 1~lngs. One Is Ihe bridge on Summll 51. and Ihe
prospeclor Ihll bridge reaching Ihe end 0( lis userul lICe wllhln
approllmalely rour year.. Basically trying to .Iay ahead or Ihat Issue
and allow ror an orderly procell to replaco that .Iructure or whalever
council would lubsequenlly decide. Secondly, we were requested to
look Inlo the Issue or traffic on Summit 51. This requell came rrom a
neighborhood group ropresenllng Sum mil 511hal mado desire known
to council and counclllhen directed slafr 10 look Inlo Ihal. 50 theso
are Ihe lWO points Ihal we keep coming back 10 as a reason slarr
conducled the study. A couple or clarlrlcallons first orr to Ihe
Informallon you did receive. Thele are Ihlngl thai have beon broughl
up In discussion wllh Iho neighborhood groups thll provlous wook. I
thought ror council's beneflll would lust very briefly go Ihrough
Ihom. AI the discussion on tho 21111 bollevo I said at that lime that

Inrnrmatlon that you have received Indicates that there Is lome
variation and especially with the Seventh Ave. alternative there Is
quite a bit higher cost. than we had anticipated. Thl.1s do .pecltlcally
to the need to relocate rather Ihan lUll movo ovor Iho la..III.
.ub.tatlo., equlpmentlhat wa.there. Thalli aboutthreo quarters or
the elpense for that alternative now and pUlllln a sllghlly dltferent
light for you. or the remaining alternlllve.IhereIs cerlalnly a range
or elpenle which I am sure Is a concern to you. lIowever when
considering the very long tern decision thai Is Involved here perhaps
they are stili relatively within the ballpark or each olher. Second
thing I. you may note the price dltferenllalln the OlpenlO or a brldgo
at the Summit St.loeatlon, at the Governor St. location. I bellove
specltlcally we list S I million for the Summit St.locallon and $600,000
for the Governor St.locatlon. The reason for that II the need for the
approach work between Sheridan and Walnut Involved with Ihe
Summit Street alternative. The bridge will be slightly wider than the
ellstlng pavement because or the federa' regulations that will be
Involved with designing that S1ructure. To taper back In to the
ellstlng pavement will Involve eltra work. On Governor, the Governor
alignment, that lame type or approach work Is included In the
pavement line or that elpense detail. Third thing. You may also note
that In the Governor St. alignment there Is no dltference In the
elpense to construct a two lane bridge and a four lane bridge. The
reason for that Is that there Is very little dltference In !he elpense In
doing that. Public works Informed me that they recently received a
cost estimate for a bridge at another location In low. City that Is
under consideration. The dltference between a four I.ne alternative
and a two lano allernatlvo wa. $60,000. Thoro really Is not a great
deal of dltference and that Is why those are approl. the same. There
would be a slight amount or dltference of course Increased for the four
lane. But not considerable. There has also been some speculation
about the fed. standards that the pUblic works dept. would use
because of the fed. money that Is Involved In this project and what
those requirements might do to the width we would have to conslruct
a new structure. In fact, the pUblic works dept.lnformed me that
when they are designing a new structure whether fed. funds are
Involved or not, essentially the same specltlcatlons are used, The
federal specltlcatlons, AS_Is the name or the group that publishes
them, are considered essentially the state of the ar! and that Is what
pUblic works uses regardless It there Is federal money or not

Involvod. 18uess I point that probably needs to be mlde 1811n Ind
sort ot goes without slylng Is thlt you hive I very complel dltrlcult
Issue berore you. And It has Ilia beon frustrallng for Italf becaule wo
IIko to come to you with I planning Iludy and have a very good Idea
ot what the bost wlY to proceed Is. II mikes It easier Cor your
decision making process IS well. This Is one that Is very dlfrlcullln
that respect. There Ire I range ot perspectives to look It this Issue.
IIlvlng met with Individuals and groups represenllng all otthose
perspecllves. Ills very dlCflcultln thltllken by themselves, elch
perspective Is rellly quite reasonable. Ills cerlalnly reasonable for
the peoplo on Summit 51. and Kirkwood Avo. to prefer to hive traffic
reduced on thl!lr Itreot. Ills cerlalnly realonable Cor people Ilong
Seventh Ave. Ind the Governor 51. allgnmenlto wlntto preserve Ihelr
neighborhood In the manner In which they are accustom to having II.
Itls also reasonable for the approl. " Ihe people represenllng 30,000
trips a dlY which arc taken atross those railroad tracks between First
Ave. and Dodge St. on an ave. day. It Is reasonable for those motorists
to elpectln arterial street system which would Cunctlon erriclenlly
Ind IlIow thom to access In area or Iowa City that has In ract become
a very automobile orlonted Irea. The hwy.'6 and hwy.'1 corridor Is
an arel where, because otthe development that has occurred there, It
Is dlrrlcull or the other modes ottran~portallon to compete down
there. The central business district, walking, taking the bus. arc all
very viable options. But In this area or Iowa City they arc not viable.
With that I want to entertain any questions, elaborate on anything
that you would like based on the materials that you have received.
Kubby/l have a question. This Is dlrricult because we hive to look long
range, If we werllto maintain tho Itatus quo and replace the Summit
St. bridge without doing anything else. Maybe not even doing or not
doing some tratrle control measures. Does that rulfll our needs long"
term In terms or arterial streets.
Davldson/l hate to evade the quesllon by simply saying that that requires
some nollon or what Is the most Important thing. Certainly preserving
the ellsllng sltuallon preserves a street system that when we are
designing IlreetsyslomsIs nOlgeometrleally tho way we would like to
have II. There are too many dOll legs and thlogs to go around. So It
proserves a street system that on a strlclly technical basis we would
like to Improve. But with the other Issues taken into conslderallon, I
think certainly that alternallvo gives you something thai Isn't going to

creale massive problem. and dlsaslrou. .iluallons. I really don'l
Ihlnk Ihe lramc concerns that we have h~re In Iowa Clly to that .cale,
Kubbyl So It may nol be the most convenient way or movlns tramc but II
wlll movo tramc In a rouonablo amount or limo and In a rOllonablo
way?
Davldsonl Every thins you laid up 10 the reasonable plrllthlnk Is
somelhlns we can conclude.
Kubbyl All those thins. are ludgmental.
Davldlonl Yel, precisely, they are ludgmenlAl.
Larsonl jerf,thalls the Issue I want to compliment you on with the public
hero, I think It I. entirely proper that you have given u.the
allernallveland Ihe Informallon and yet withheld from making a
policy decision that I think Is at the heart or Ihe alternallves. I think
Ihatls emlly whal staff should do Is give us Ihe Informallon, make
recommendallons where Itlsn'\ necessarily a judgement or
perspective or value typo decision. Give us the Info we need 10 IUK8le
and decide which or those perspectives and value judgements we need
to make but nOI make Ihem for us and I appreciate you doing th:at. ^,
a fringe beneW or a Ilde effecl or that. the pUblic w., somewhat
milled Into thinking thlt allthe.e allernallve. are being equally
weighted by council. I just wanted to apologize to the pUblic and
those that thought thai all these allernallves were belos equllly
looked at In some w.ys. In my mind Ills as plain IS the nose on your
face that some or these IlIernallve'lust don't make any sense alall. I
think only Is you hive no sense or neighborhood at all do you consider
anything other Ihln ait. A or all, ^ I. I am sorry for Summit St.thlllt
has become busy as It has, I think some thing. noed to bo dono about
that but I cln'llmaglne closing Summll SI. brldse. I am jusl'orry It
became an Issue that the public had no way of knowing whether tho
council was about to do .omolhlna that s~emed crazy 10 them or
whelher these were juslthaoretlcal allernallves. The way you did
your lob properly. I think we lust gave the public the wrong
Impression to some eJtentand I apologize for that. The only quesllon
I have faclually that you might have given us and I might have
missed It Ie how Is the traffic on Summit St. changed a. compared to

Paul Vandorpo/1802 DeForest. I have gOllen some or the literature earlier
and I have rormulated some opinions and I distributed those to
council membora. To clarU'y a 101 or the dlscuSllon that has gone on
tonight. There are really two Issue. here. There Istrarnc control on
Summit St. and seems to be one ISlue and come how that has gOllen
twisted around Into arterlaltrarne rlow In S.B. Iowa Clly. II would
leem to be prudent to discuss one without discussing the other
necessarily, rr you want a short term solution to the Summit St.
problem. I can envision an ouulder coming to Iowa City and lust
looking It the map and looking at 5.8. Iowa City and saying what are
Ihe mlJor arteries and what can we do to Improve the .Ituallon and
one Improvement would be to widen Summit St. because It Is the only
two way direct link between Burlington and Keokuk. Blcuse me,
Burllnglon and Kirkwood Islhe Ilreels nO'flstand. I am lure that
would be dllSlllsracllon to many people. II seems to me that you
have got two Issues here and maybe you ought to address them
separately. Take care or Summit 51. maybe through the proposed
change In trame rlow and then take your time and take a longer look
atarlerlal rlow In S.B. Iowa City and prmrvo our neighborhoodS.
Thank you.

thru these neighborhood.. What I am .uggelllng I. Is you could build

tho way you want and tho nolahborhood would "ani II 10 look and
you would notloso Ihal much monoy. I would IIko 10 ask you to nol

bridge needs roplacement maybe In 15 yom. maybe In 20 yom. II
has beon there ror 53 yem, the currenl brldae. We have alked
engineers to look at It. There are 19Io 'Ieelalrders "hlch are right
underneath the curbs which have some rust. The present "eight
IImllallon Is arranged In .uch a way Ihalthe ollslence 0( those alrders
Is not eVOD laken Inlo account. It mesne Ihaltho wolghtlhatls
allowod nllw In Iho brldgo.tho bridge (unctions al Ihough these IWO
girders were nollhere. My second polnl Is signaling. I address my
point to plan A I. I think that we do not need elaborate red lights on
Kirkwood St.1J' the council rOIlOWSlhe neighborhood .uggestlon 10
direct tratrle around these neighborhoods. A (ew slmplo slap Ilgns
will do It. Either on Keokuk and Kirkwood or on Kirkwood and Dodgo
and even on Bowery and Dodge. I don't think you need those huge
things especially IJ' you rollow the neighborhoodS wish.
Kubby/I hm one quick queltlon ror you. Where do you get the esllmate
thatlJ' we built our own bridge Ihat was the same .1Ie IS the current
Summit St. bridge that It would be S500,OOO.
Kuensll/ You are r1gurlng out that the bridge w1l1 be S600,OOO and which w1l1
be 31 (eet wide. I have a reeling that these estimates are estimates.
As WIS mentioned bdore, the clly got an Incredible estimate ror a (our
lane bridge which '9111I be almost atlhe price or a two lane bridge,
What I am .ugg~stlng Is tho dlJ'rerence betweon S600,OOO and
S500,OOO Is not that much Is you get what you want and you are nol
lert with a monstrosity.
Ambr./I havo a question sir on your engineering report. Do you have I
wrlllen reportlhll you could give us certified by an engineering r1rm.
Kuensll/ We don't have a wrlllen report. I have talked with the city bridge
Inspector, a Mr. Oannon. lie has lold me emtly. The Information thai
I give you Is his Information. 1I0w he arrived at the weight limit on
the bridge. lie .howed me the plcturellhat he took. lie Inspect. the
bridge every two years. Thore II nothing dangeroul about the bridge.
That means that even IJ' there Is some kind or weakness, you w1l1 see
Illong a head or time. This bridge wl1l not collapse. We had an
engineer look at the bridge who said that ir the city wero taking down

the bridge, he who Is Involved In building bridges, would like each
pleco or lumber Ind build a new bridge. Thlt melns the subslructure
or the bridge Is absolutely solid. It's the wooden structure. It might
scaro you whon you look allt Ind you think my God It Is a wooden
bridge Ind made or wooden beams. It ISlbsolutely solid. What
people arc concerned with Is ",hat Ihe city had 10 do rive years ago.
They first tried to put wooden boards down Ind then put Isphalt on It
and they retllud It didn't hold. The clly then had to redo It Ind put
corruglted metal down and then riut they put three Inches or Isphalt
down and then they put rive Inches of asphalt and It hIS held very
nicely.
Larson/l don'l mean to dolay this ellher john but I WII under the
Impression that the bridge had to be replaced In somellme between
now and four years from now. If that Is not the case, I would like to
know about It.
llorow./1 would like to Investigate that too becauso the way I undersland It
Is any bridge engineer or In engineer for bridges has a range or years
In which they can make In educated guess as to how long I bridge
stays. You can ellher give a conservative estimate or 4.~ years or you
c.n glvo a liberal ostlmalo or up II) 20 yom. I don't think this Iw
anything that we have IClually seen from an engineer.
Larson/l saw It from Slove and that was four yeau. Four years and
twenty years Is a big dlfrerence.
Atklnsl Those Inspections arc performed by the slale and Ihey will tell us
when It has to be replaced.
Kubbyl Could we gol a report from our city engineer who Inspects the
brldgo,
Alklns/l am sure we could but It Is not goln8 to carry the same wolght.
Horow.1 The question I would really like asked to the state engineer Is the
range that any engineer has the training to make ellher a conservative
or liberal estlmale. Any Iguell I would really like to ask them point
blank what Is the range or yen. within which they arc maklnglhls
estimate.
Alklns/ I am sure we can ask Ihat but a bridge Inspector that you draw Ihat
doosthe Inspection Is 80ln8to delermlne the determine the rinal Issue.
Larson/ Well, we've been told by the slate that we have to look at repairing
It within rour years.
Atklns/ Yes. In a short period of time.
Kuen~1I1 Two things. The College SI. bridge has to be replaced In the early
70's. Inspeclors came and said please do not let anolher car go over II.

The cllY Immedlalely closed lhe bridge and the bridge was closed ror
one yoar, When Iha cllY wanted 10 take down Ihe bridge, Ihey had
the biggest dlrrlcullY. It was slrong and so well buill. You can ask Mr.
Schmadake who remembers thatlcene very well. The olher Ihing
Ihatl rorgolto mention to you Is that what we presenled rrom
nelghborlor the Summit 51. neighborhood Is basically plan A I.
Nobody on Summit 51. ever sUggesled to lake out a bridge and not 10
have a bridge. We lubmltted to the clty,lhe neighborhood
coordinator and a planner, we submitted to thom a plan. SummllSI.
bridge was always there.
Courtneyl Borore he starts, I lust wanted 10 throw lomelhlng oUI here. And
lollclta IIllle Inpul. We have had leven or eight people up here 10 rar
and the underlying tone or ihe discussion so rar Is Ihat we don't wanl
to disrupt Seventh Ave. neighborhood and we don'l want to disrupt
Gov. 51. neighborhood and we wanlto reducer IraWe on Summit 51.
and Ihat we ought to nnd some place else 10 roule Ihattrarrlc. I
hearing that something should be done to put It on Dodge 51. It seems
10 me thltthe primary people using Dodge St are the people coming
Into town rrom out or town and coming all the way Ihrough on Dodge
St. Where the primary trarrle on Summit II In town people coming
rrom the mulde. Ir that assumption Is true and somebody can shoot
It down Ir you like. I'm lust throwing Ihls oul ror discussion. To lake
Ihallrarrlc coming rrom the easlslde and solns throush means Ihal It
needs to be directed orr the easlslde, We have done & 101 or things on
the mUlde. first Ave. was conslrueted as a malor arlerlal. Scoll
Blvd. was construcled since I have been on the council and that hasn't
has any afreet at all on It. At the same lime all or Ihls Is going on
people are wan ling UI to direct Ihat trafne down first Ave. There II a
major errort on first Ave. to slow trafnc down even more. S.e. Jr.lIIgh,
Goodwllllndustrles, Mall Dr. area. It Is eltremely danserous. There Is
a major push there, my co.councllor on the right Included, to do
something to slow trarrle down even more on firsl Ave, I would
suggesl that thai worsens the problem already Ihere. I am lust
looking ror some possible alternatives. Alii am hearing Is you need to
do somelhlng. I would like to hear rrom people who have some Ideas
as to where we can put this trarrle without going thru some
neighborhood and conslrUcllng some new street.
Larson/l'rarrle has to go somewhere. You can't take It rrom one slreet
without It going to another Slreel.

around to other places and other cities where you can see Iratflc
barrlorathat do protect neighborhoods. You have circumferential
routes. It might ~Isrupt your going from your street over 10 Willow
Creek for s~r. It might force you to go out on Scoll Blvd. The

Why aren't we using Scoll Blvd. I think that question has to be raised.
Why Is It thlt since SCOll Blvd has come In thlt we hive not seen I

traffic on Summit I hive lone year old child, a four year old child.
We live on the weSlslde or the street. It won't be long before they're
trying to go acrou Summit street to go to school. That quite honestly
bothers me. If our alternative Is a new brIdge, I think we should hold'
the width of the brIdge down to the current width rather than

they were said more eloquently thin I cln. There seemed to bel
good concerns that people don't want more traffic. I didn't hear
anyone requesting traffic control to give them more traffic, and they
want to preserve neighborhoods. I'm In favor or all that so I don't have
much to say about that, but towards your question, Counsellor
Courtney, one thing that occurred to me, I travel these routes all the
time. I come out of an IlIey onto Summit It all hours and Igo down
all these slreels. I really don't feel that there'. I !Ingle problem with
traffic compared to most cities I've lived In. Nonetheless, for what
we're used to and how Itlncreasos, thllt's whIt bothers 1111 of us. It
could be thlllthere Is a dlsproportlonllte amount of traffic thllt's
Increased on Summit. They're nOI desirous of that and people are not
desirous of taking a surplus from there and put It somewhere elso.
One slreotthat's constructod to handle moro traffic Isn'tgolllng, Is

lalked 10 my neighbors yeslerday, Ihe Qulnll, who have lived In Ihelr

fell ror Ihem. Whal made my rlnal decision WIS my elghl year old 1111
nlghl during a blrlhday parly. 110 came 10 me and said dad am I going
loloso my rrlends. Am I going 10 be ablolo go 10 my school anymoro.

Ihls place,lhls place and Ihls place. Why can'll have one on Summll
5110 help me cross Ihollreel. Why can 'I I havo somebody prolecl me.
Qullo frankly, we lake our 8 yr. old 10 Longrellow School because I do
nol wanl him crossing Sum mil 51. I reel II would be much safer If you
would spend S I ~ a day and pUI a slop sign Ihere al Sheridan and
maybo even II Bowery and Sum mil 10 conlrol a IItlle bll or Ihal during

Iraerlc-one IIno each way 10 conlrolsomo or Ihal down 10 Burllnglon so

we will nOI only look al tho pasl bUI wo will look to Iho ruturo In how
we can Improve In volunleerlsm In our cllY and county. You would be
Interested to know thai we do have .pcclllc plans ror September
which ISlhe lime wo are going 10 really rocus on our celebrallon. On
Sepl. I IIh Ihe IIlSlO/'lcal Living Farms Thealer rrom Dos Moines will be
wllh us and we are planning thaI 10 be a gala celebration opon 10 all of
Ihe communllY. Thon on the noli day we are hoping wo can have an
Engll.h tea 10 commemorale and honor Ihe volunleer. who have been
with the SenlO/' Cenler rO/' the enllre lime-the lens yem 0( ellSlence.
Then, Friday 10 really have a day or run and celebrallon. To begin
wllh a continental breakrastand wlndlna up wllh a nlghlclub aHalr
and wllh a dance. Wo hope all or you will help us parllclpale.

pasl president or DOC. the studenl organlzallon rrom Ihe College or

lIowever, I wold like 10 address a couple or quick polnls this evening.
One Is 10 ask lllhere are any quesllons that I can answer or points I
can clarlCy regarding the leller I gave you Fob.26.
McDi.!Jp'n't think so.
Mcbi\i8l1'llRI Secondly Is to propose an option In Ihe enl'orcement or such
clgarello ordinances. I am a lIllle concernod personally about the cost
to the CllY or Iowa City In order to convlcla violator In the criminal
court. I don't reel the city should have to spend out money In order to
convict such a vlolalor while Ihal person conllnues 10 make money
selling clgarelles with the permit we Issue them. Perhaps It could be
doalt wllh a. an Infnellon of a cllY ordlnanco warranllng a parking
Ilcket Issues at the time or the event nollng ordinance number blank.
Then rollow It up wllh a civil license hearing whereby the clgarelle
permit holder Involved would appear berore either Mayor Mcd. or an
appointed administrator to decide whether or not their tobacco selling
permit needed to be suspended or revoked at that time. I believe It Is

enforced. And Ihallowa Clly ha, Ihe opporlunlly 10 be allhe
forefront of such legislation thltlslnevllably comIng. Thank you.
McD/ One of Ihe reason, we labled Ihls for a few weets. If I remember
correclly, Ihe propo,alln fronl or us wa, going 10 become effecllve
July III. Waslhal nol corroct, Marian. Docaulo ot Iho loglllallvo
session ~nd because (l( tho bill, Ihal were Inlroduced, we ,hould and
we monllor a 101 0( bill, IS they are Inlroduced, see how Ihey arc
Roing IS Ihey go Ihrough the pipe line. Bul we should have a prelly
good handle a, 10 whal form, If any form,lhallhey are going 10 late
probably by somellme In April. Dy Ihalllme Ihe leglslalure would be
beginning to wind down. So, because or nol knowing what form thai
Ihey were going 10 lake and because or Ihe schedule Ihallhey would
be on Ihlsls why we decided 10 lable II for a few weeks because we
would sllll have ample lime 10 addrell II and sllll make It effecllve by
",~IY Isl.
M~'ll~/ Thai Is certainly reasonable and I appreclale all or your
conllnued Interellln thallllue.
Kubby / One or the thlngslsllll have a concern aboul thai at some polnll
would IIko 10 talk about I' Ihe person who sell, the clgarelle be the
person who Is prosecuted v.. tho permit holder because I think that
the person who prom. from the sell of clgarelles to minor. should bo
the person who Is In vlolallon maybe as well IS the actual clShler who
sells them. The way Ills wrlUen now, as I understand It, Is that
whoever sells Is the person who ael.the ticket and Is In vlolallon and
not the permit holder. Is that correct.
Gentry/It could be ellher or both.
Kubby/I would like us to think about thaI. Because ulllmately I would the
person who profits from lito be In violation.
McD/ Anyone else who would like to addrolltho council about any lIem thAl
does not appear In this evening', agenda.

WIS discussed at I recent meetlna and I "ilntto know If the architect
Is Bolna to have atleall one option wllh tbat. , .

McDI Two parking structures?
Kubby We ....cre tllklng Iboutthll ....e hive gotWo lurrlce 1011, Chauncey
S.....n .nd the Rec. Center and ....e ....ere going 10 puts second floor on
thom. I want to look at the poulblllly or not pUlling a second rJoor on
the Chauncey Swan but pUlling moro laym on the Rec. Center. So
there Is more open space. Because tbatls kind or build up already.
McD/1 don't think the architect Is looking at anything IIko that, are they
I Steve?
I Atklnsl What happened WIS the planning meotlngln which everybody and
I
I their brother had beon Invited to. There was a number or Ideas
mbanged. Tho policy position, Informal as II was, that we havo been ,
,
I operating under, We being tho .tarC, was that wo would bo
recommending on one dock or parking ovor Chauncey Swan, ono dock
I ,
or parking over tho Rec. Center. And the architect was proceeding In !.
that Cashion, At the mcetlngthe Issuo was brought up as to whether i
I -I
wo could avoid constructing one deck over Chauncey Swan and go to ,
I multl.decks behind tho Rec. Center. In other words, providing the I
I
I same number or spaces but pUlling them Into one structure, We
I
i discussed with the architect Collowlngthat meeting what we reltthe
I
I gonerallntero.t was, a multldeck, was not Interost on your part. I
I thought wo had gono to great pains to .ay no more multldeck.. We
I
I want to 80 wllb just OM deck Cor parking, Tho proposal that was put
I
I Corth and the arcbltect does have some :ketch plans and I havo asked i
him to bring thoso along with him when ho makes his presontatlon to ,
I you about the genorallayout oC tho thing does what Karen was i
I suggesting, If you do choose to chan~e the direction then we havo to
change prollY quiCkly becauso wo will be changing the character or
tho parking ramp. From an exponse Ilandpolnt It Is likely Ihat tho
multldeck could bo built cheapor.
Nov,1 Somebody brought that up to mo. It would roqulro Cower deop pllos or ,
,
concroto, :" ;
Atklns/l wouldn't pro lend to know alllhe details, NaomI. It was elplalned
to me In similar rashlon that evidently It would be cheaper.

McDl When you lalk about multldeck, how many aro you talking about.
Atkln.1 Talking aboulltlollllhroo, And ono olhel' elomonll did add al my
Judgomenl. I roll that II would bo IIkoly It, undor Iho .cenarlo or one
deck over each, Qullo rrankly there Is no cerlalnlY thai you aro going
to build bolh ollhem Immedlllely. You can build ono and wall and
build Iho olher laler on. "Ihallho .uggesllon Ihatlhe corner II
Gllberland Washlnglon, which now ha.aboull, parking spaces,
Those .paces be removed and Ihal be mado open space. To we kind 0(
so(ten thai whole corner up, Wo roll also Ihalll would bo nice space
ror the rarmers markel. You can'lgol your car In there bUllhey could
sol up bonchos and tables ror ,olllng, Thllll whoro It 11 rlghl now,
You will have your shol alii. My plans are 10 gel II 10 you on the 2'lh
It allgGes well.
Kubbyll'm nOlasklng Iho council 10 chango dlrecllon bUlto add a direction
so we really know whal our I'ange 0( opllon.ls so we ran choose
wisely,
Courlneyll wantod 10 throw one olhcr complication Inlo Ihls Ihlng. Parts
and Recs Comm. senl us their goals and priori lies. On Ihelr Ihree to
(lve l'car goals slalemenllhey talk aboul adopting a plan regarding
addlllon Indoor recreational space. Now are we to assume Ihe
Rec.Center Is the size II Is always going 10 be and never any larger,
Because II seems 10 mc thallhcre Is also anolher allernallve here.
Maybe nOlaccoplable to a 101 0( rolks. or mlklng lhe mUltiple ramps

who do not neceuarlly gel on city boards and comm, that docs not
mean that they are nOllhought or 01' asked to parllclpate In other
boards or commissions. I am pleased that Mr. Robert Lewis has been
appointed 10 Iho jobl Training Partnership Act Prlvale Induslry
Council. It fundi a 101 or fedoral and lIate monlel and program.lnlo
Ihe sit counly area and helps a lot or displaced homemakers. A lot or
people who hive 10Slthelr lobs gel relralned, Ills a very very
Imporlant board. Ilusl wan led to lellhal be known that lust because
10 you don't get on ono board or commission docsn'l mean you won't
be on another one.

on Salurday 10 lpond from 8am to 7pm at S.B.jr, IIIgh. And the level

admlnlslrallon and the school boards for making those facllllles
available. Without them we would really be pinched for space.
lIorow./1 would like to add on to thai and Ilk that we lend a thank you
note, The S.B.jr.lIIgh parent.student organlzallon, Communlcallons

going to atart over 11m golns to hive Ann Burnside, my asslstlnt,
starl II. Thai will be In district court with 1101 ore power than I
maglstrlte has. The Jefferson SI. property has been sold. So we hive

Kubbyl When wo sllrl over, can wo starl In district courl?
Gentryl Yos. Thai Is my Intention. Magistrate's courl Is very nleo for most

Discussion.
Larson/l w1l1 vote In Cavor or this only because I don't think we need to
movu twice In two yoars. But I would not have rented space In that
building In 19861C It would hive been up to Ole Ind do not think we
should be In that bulldlna because or the cost. I clearly don't want to
move them twice In 1\'0 yean. I w1l1 go Ilong with this, I recenlly
looked It orflce Spice around town Ind I think this Is In expensive
building. I understlnd the locltlon Is very good. 11m not trying to
second guess your decision. ButlC we didn't have a new building
Ibout to bo preplred Cor hore I would rathor go somewhere olse.
McDI You should have soen what they had to put up with beCore this.
Larson/l know that,
McDI Were you ever In there. You should have been In there.
Larsonl The point Is there are lot. or orflce space In town, 110'11 Is Important
the prollmlty Is compared to the cost Is the judgement call they had to
mike. I 1m not trying to second guess that. I wouldn't have voted
that 'lilY.

I Increaso .Inco Peb. 1986. I wished that we would talk about thaI. Not
I only the parking rales but the monlhly permit rees.
Larsonl Do you mean the meler rates.
\ Kubbyl The meter rate, as well as tho permit rales.
Larsonl Tho permit rate, havo been raised.
Kubby I Tho meter rates have nol been raised slnco '86.
! McDI The bus raro, haven't been Increased slnco berore that either.
Kubbyl Right. We can discuss 1111 or these things.
I With the landrllll am really glad that we have put some money aside
ror romedlal action. I think that Is vllal ror us to do. I am concerned
about the money ror seemingly high tech methods ror doing low tech i I
practices or compostlng and would love to Clnd some other ways or ,
: I
dealing with our compost. I had Isked Brld Nueman to olplore what
Ames Is doing with their airport Ind I guess I need to do moro
1 Investlgltlon or those kind, or allernatlves to this. And know thltthe
baler and the baler building will have to be discussed In moro detail ~ I
later, When I think or SI.I million, that Is a lot or money, We have a ,
general goal or where we are going with all or this but we don't hive I
speclflc goals elcept our reduction percentage that we need to strive I
, I
ror according to slate law, I would rather spend a portion or that on
Wlste reduction education and .ee what we can do, And to make .ure I
thlt the baler building Is In a place and thai It Is big enough that we
can tako all the recyclable, out or thllgarbage and balo thoso In I 'I
clean manner that Is acceptable to our market sources. And then bale
j all the yucky .tu!r when we put that In the landfill.
I
Horow.l Karer;, what you al'e talking about right there would be two
d~rerent baler,. Ills my understanding that you really would be In
trouble with that, The educatlon, the wasto source reduction Is at tho
basis or all or our planning, ECCOG has recently received a grant ror a
, progrlm known I' waste busters. That wo reed Into that whole
i program. It Is something that has to be accomplished on the whole Ii
~ regional aroa rather than IUSllowa CllY.
i
.
, Kubby/l agree, But here locally we talk about baling waste and recycling
,
!: waste and spending money in those areas berore waste reduction.
.' ,
I. 1I0row.l No. I don't think wo are. I think that you are hearing that rrom ,
,
t' Ihoso who want It to look IIko that. My understanding Is tho baling Is
,
ror after the recycling come, outand/or to bale the recyclables.
