Anna Buss/I'm Anna Buss and Illv& at525 West Jl&nton, And I'V& ~n In
tho Iowa Clly ar&a slnc& 1966.1 r&m&mbor back whon first Highway I
was tho way It was many years ago with the old Kon's place, the old
Highway COmmission Building. Qulth frankly I thought It lookod prelly
bad, I don't soo wh&re tho zoning of this properly has hurt the
highway I corridor. Tho clly's now spending a lot of monty, along With
tho slath, to Improvo the highway condlUons down there that W'Oro
much neooed. And I qulth frankly think that Iowa LandS(3plng has
dont a wondertuljob down thert. That whole area looks much belthr.
Many yoars ago, It was lust presumed, maybo It was just me, but that
Ulat wholt area would bo in ont straight line commercial. It doesn't
lust mean that It always has to koop encroaching up tht stroot, Il can
bo stoppod mertll's at.. Bulll would mako much moro sonso, I moan
small children along that highway Is ridiculous, boc3uso of thetralllc.
I know thal ono of the argumonls all along has ~n that this Is an
allordablt housing aroa. Well, bo that as It may, there's still a lot of
lralllc down thero and lraUlc has yet to mix With small children,

right by my hOUSO, and Ilnvl~ anyone, any morning or lbe \mk,
about school time, to come and walch what happen9 on ~nton Street
All or lbe children lbatllve on lbe soulb side or Bonton Street have to
cr0S9 Bonton Street to got to school at Roosevol~ which 19 right up lbe
hili. And It's dangerous, Kids and traltlc don't mix. Havlnglbls a
commercially zoned area, makts much more sense lban havtnglt
zoned rosldential, And It's only lbe bottom hair or Hudson. It can be
stopped lbere. Nolblng says It has to go any rarlbor. Butlbe houSts
lbat arelbere now aro not In wonderrul shapo, They're livable and
lbey ~n bo made to bo very nlco. Butlt'l my understanding lbat one
or lbe lots has no house on It as It Is now. And lbat's It's gong to be
uStd ror storage.lllbat so, from Iowa landscaping. SO not evory one
In lbe neighborhood Is against commercial zoning or lbls area. And I
WIsh you would at least consider some or lbose Idtas as WIlli. Thank
you.
McD/ Thank you, Anna.

bohalr of Shirley and Ken Ranshaw, OWlltrS of property wllbln lbo
arta lbatls now sought to be changed as rar aslbo Comprehensive
Plan Is concerned, Thero has been discussion lbl9 evening aboutlbl9
bslng zoning, but I do not bellm lbatls what It Is. I understand lbls
to bO lbo comp, plan lbatls beroro you, And lbo quosuon Is baSically
whether with ono or lbe main ar~rtal highways dlro<Uy In rront or
Ulls property with commercial properUts on both sldts or I~ whelber
lbelong range planning should be ror commercial dmlopment You
should allow lbe prosont plan, which I might add has been developed
by two or lbroo consultants and not lust by city stall, to remain In
elloct I know lbat I do not mean to rtmlnd council that simply
having a long.rango plan, lbo Comprehenslvo Plan under chapter 4.
14, dOts not mean anyone ean come In WIth an application and
automaUcally obtain zoning ror any particular use. Those I~ms are on
an ad hoe basis. ConsoquenUy Ilblnk It would be comple~ly
unreasonable to take a property lbatls dose to the highway or abuts
lbe highway, a portion or which was taktn whtn lbt highway was
txpanded. It wastrnlod as commtrClal property rrom a
compensation standpoint And I do not bOlleve lbatlt would servo lbo
public purpose under lboso clrcumstancts to simply redoslgna~ lbls

McDI As I understand I~ Monica, this Is scbeduled W be on our agtnda for
action t~ ",,"ks from wnlgbt COrrect?
Moonl The resoluUon regarding tht actual amendment WIll be on the agenda
In two weoks.
McDI Wblcb Is the.
Moonl The first of Ocwber.
Courtney I Monica, Karin said somtthlng aboutltlggerlng an txtraordlnary
majority. Is that true.
Moonl That Is relaUve w tho rezoning requ~t Tho peUUon of objecUon that
we bave r~lved, depending upon thelocaUon of thost r~ldents,
And we need w analyze that Whether of not that may Itlgger an
extraordinary majorIty at the Ume the Iowa Clly landscaping requ~t
for rezoning Is before you, And ~ Will advise you at that Ume
Whether of not thateXltaordlnary majority Is required for approval of
their appllcaUon.
Hov I Wbat about tho appllcaUon w zone thew from CQmmorclal w
resldonUal. That require an extraordinary majority.
M09nl We are looking at two different things. Right now you are looking at
the proposal w amend the polley regarding the approprla~ land use.
The letters of objecUon that we bave received do notltlgger an
extraordinary majority on your part for approval of the resoluUon
regarding the land use cbange or the comp, plan cbange. We baven't.
analyzed n yet but It may Itlgger an tXltaordlnary majority on your
part When you look at the quesUon of rezoning Iowa Clly
landscaping's property.
Hov IIf we look at the quesUon of rezoning the lots 16 w 19, we bm an
eXltaordlnary requirement only If we bave enougb objecUons. Is that
What I am bearing.
Moonl Lots 16 w 19 were not up for rezoning conslderaUon, Only a land use
deslgnaUon cbange With the compo plan.
Hov I Will they be up for rezoning.
Moonl Ho, There Is only one lot on tho west side of lIudson Ave, Lot 22, that
was referred w earlier that Iowa City landscaping bas made a requ~t
W rezone.

~nlIy I Thtre Is no request to rmne on tho rour lots that the poople In tho
audlenco havo OOtn talking aboul Tho only request to rezone Is on
f Lot 22 rrom commorclal ~ rocldonUal, right?
I Moonl That's correcl From resldonUal to commorclal.
,"
I Nov I Thew lots havo always bHn resld.nUal.
I. Moon Thew lots are prewnUy zoned resldonUaJ. Thore havo OOtn requests
t In tho past to rmno thom to commorclal and It Is ror that parUcular
I roason that residents art boron you today to changt tht land uso
policy ror that area Which, In their Impression, mak.lt mort dltrlcult
to rezono thoso proptrUes rrom resldenUal to commercial In tho
ruturo.
Larsonl The zoning and tho compo plan ar.lnconslsltnt right now.
Moonl Yes.
Nov I Okay. I thought they woro.
Gentry I And ther. havo boon reptalod requests to rezon.that aroa
commercial rrom Mr. Ramahaw, So that la.unsuccessrul. That la
probably What you are.
COurtney I Somehow It dotSn't SOtm qul~ right that When a zoning rtquost
comes In rrom a proptrty owner and ther. are obJocUons to that rrom
the surrounding neighbors It triggers an extraordinary majority but
When a proptrty owner has his zoning and surrounding neighbors
bring In a cbangeln the compo plan that their oblecUon doesn't trigger
an extraordinary maJority. It doesn't S9tm quilt equitable. I know It
Is based on a law but It doesn't soom qUilt right that It doesn't work
th. sam. way In both dlrecUons,
Larsonl Changing the compo plan doesn't artect the proptrty owner's uso or
his proptrty. That would bo one dltrerencethat would lusUry the
dltrorence.
Moonlit Is not loglslaUon, It Is pollcy.a guideline,
Larsonl A living breathing document..

out that 1 am In agrHmont that 55 conto 18 a ralr prlco ror por aquuo

Jay Honohan/l camo down horeto gin a vory big SJlf<<h, Randy...1 gavo
you the analysis that you requested.
MCDI Any quosUons on this,
Nov Ilthlnk It was an txtoUont analysis.
1I0nohanl Thank you.
Larson I I might point out that I don't agrH With vory much of tho analysis.
I think an Important factor In valuing tho proporty wasn' lookod at
tho way It should hm boon. But all things consldorod, bo(auso I
think It would bo a good Idoa to put this proporty to usoful uso
bo(auso I think Mr. Stove Is a good proporly owner WIIo can enrich
the proporly to the bollormenl of everybody. Not to menUon the
proporty tax bast. 1 don't think this sots a bad proctdenl But I
certainly think that you can make an argumont that It was worth a
dllroront number.
Honohanl Tho rosponso 1 would mako to that II that I \'Nnt down and Dan
HUdson and he put It at 37 cents a squaro fool So, you are goUlng a
bargain, 1 think that I have oxplalnod all host other sales,
McDI Thank you, Jay.
Kubby I Although I think 1 would arguo With you that taking up grass and
putting down concrote Isn't everybody's aesthoUcs or values to
Improvo.
Larsonl Only about a third of tho land that he gets from the city Is going to
bo parking lot. Tho rost Is going to bo a sharptr landscaping.
Honohanl That Is actually lust tho ond flve lots....

Larsonl Do you have anyllllng now to roporl
McD/1 did, late 1II1s afternoon, s~ak willi Mr.lluff, lIIe dovolo~r of 1II0
pro~rty. As I stated last night during our Informal mooUng lIIatl
had a brlof convorsaUon a few days oarllor. I lust wanted to ~ What
oxacUy.1f we were bolll talking aboutllle samo 1IIlng. What he said
1II1s afternoon was lIIatlllore Is somt redoslgn Involved but notlllo
type of 1II1ng lIIat we aro talking aboul That might tako plact Whon
and If wo finally adopt somt type of plan for soulll of Burlington Sl
Tht type of changos lIIat hols talking about woro changos lIIat would
not affect lilt typo of doslgn. For oxamplt, htls talking about moving
1II0 swimming pool out of lilt mlddlo of Il Just btcaUst of probloms
lIIatllloy have rum Into wllIIlho ollltr structuro. this was 1II0 roason.
Larson/But he Is not willing to look at doing somo of 1II01lllngs lIIat we
would be Interosted In such as sot backs and parking Chang".
McDI Not roally atlllls polnl
Larsonl To be fair we don't evon have a way to ask him to do 1II1ngs
dlfforonUy bocaust we havon't soWed on What 1II1ngs OlQcUy we aro
going to do dlfforonUy.
McD/1 was romlnded of lIIat lilts afternoon, of courst, too. And ho Is correcl
We don' know What our final plan Is going to be. We.atlllls point.
lIIoy aro, ho told mo, lIIatllloy aro ready to start moving on It and to
make a few of lIIose doslgn changes. Actually, ho told mo lIIat as far
as 1II0 roquost for 1II0 yoars extonslon on lIIe LSRD, ho said lIIat ho
would be vory happy willi lIIr.. to six monllls exwnslon,
1I0rowl Look at how long some of 1II0 olller developers havo waited for us to
roally como forth willi a roally concrote concopt on 1II1s. OUr local
dovolopers aro very paUonl
Nov II am not In favor of exwndlng 1II1s.
Ambr/ Why has ho been delayed so long, John, Isis financing?
McDI Yeah. Thore woro some problems a year or so ago lIIatllllngs-
olllerwlse lIIe project would havo been started.
John Crulse/l am Mr. Huff's attorney and I would answer any qutsUons you
would havo relaUng to 1II1s, Mr. Ambr" YOB, It has boon financing lIIat
has hold him up. Ho has a huge condemnaUon setUement out In San

Intonds to movo his swimming pool outside this building Into that

now. Bul bt(auSt 01 his Investment. He haS '632,000 In tM land and
abOul anothor '100,000 In demollUon planning, engln"rlng, It really
cant work lor him to stop and redesign tho building onUrely. So that
Is wtIy ho Is asking lor an oxtenslon lusl to make sure thal he gets
under way bolorothls LSRO has oxplred.
Larson! John, II wt didn't. oxtend tho deadllno ho would thon havotho opUon
01 going In and golUng his building pormll bOloro Oct. 3 and start
progress within 160 days.
erulst! Yos. I have advised him months ago to plan to han the building
pormtunyway. It haS lusl ~n a UIUe blUlower. And,ono 01 the
roasons I came tonlghl was to make surothal you understand tha~ In
no way are wt trying to offend the council. If you vote this down and
we go In In tho next WtOk and apply lor a building ~rml~ we aro nol
doing It to offend anybodY. Bulll would be probably a hall million
dollar f1nandallOS$ If ho did nol tako advantago 01 tho LSRO thal be
has In Irontol him to use,
Gtntry! And you have overy legal right.
erulst! this Is a 104 unll complex With two levels 01 parking, a swimming
pool Is built Into I~ aerobics room, welghl rooms and lour Imls 01
apartmonts abOvetha~ olovator, stair towers. You jusl can't redesign
that without cosUng yourself a lot 01 money. That Is wtIy he needs to
procotd with what ho has.
Larson! John, just so you understand. I guess, so everybodY understands
my vote, Il doosn't have anything to do with thinking that the
developor Is doing anything wrong, If the dmlopor had the right lor
lwo years to develOp his plan as It was approved. My only concern Is
Is that that Is not now the exact kInd 01 development that we wish to
sot In that area, Or that I wish to sot In that area. I don't have any
objecUons to the develop
REaL 91.66, SlOB 2

McOI Mov~ by Larson, WI."Ond~ by I/orow to adopt tho rOSOluUon,
Discussion,
Kubby II havo a point 01 c1arlflcaUon bKaUst I am gOWng conlUSfd. When,
In tho rosoluUon, It Is saying that tho mayor and tho city clork Will
approvo thow. Right?
a.ntry I They Will txocuto on your bohall. Which Is actually. This rtsOluUon
IS to some exttnt redundant b<<aUst your flrst rtsOluUon authorIZed
the mayor and the city clerk to exocutt oastmonts that Sttvo and I
and Chuck ~ro abloto ntgoUatt. The roason It Is boloro you today Is
bocaust you actually hadn't ~n one of the eastments and WIIat It
lookod Uko.
Kubby/l gum my roadlng 01 tho thorolors Is that It talks about thtst two
'podflc agrooments and not agroomonta In gonoral, Whon It says two
dOtS It mt3n tho two different kind of agrtomonts.
a.ntryl There are two soparatt agrtoments. fn trying to save trteS I only
gavo you a copy 01 on..
Kubby I My point Is It says that th. mayor and city clerk art hereby
authorlztd to exocutt and attost th. two ptrmanent .asom.nt
agrtoments. It doosn't say all Substquent on.,. Ooos that not matttr
bocauSt tho Ilrst rt50luUon,
Gentry I Tho first rosoluUon authorlz.,.so this Is tho rtsOluUon 01
redundancy If wt could call It that lor 1991,
Larsonl W. art not gOing to ~ tho other substquont oastments,
a.ntry I Unl." you want to. RIght now therols no r.ason to. You aro ~Ing

Nov Iln tholnttrtst 01 savIng trfOS wt can lust rocelvo a list 01 nam., rather

Gontry I They Will bo on file With the city clerk and In my olflce ovontually If

Kubby II would Uketo Stt theUst 01 nam., boloro they aro slgnod, not

McDI Why?
Kubby I Well If ~ want to contact poople and makt suro everything Is In

Ambr / John, I would Uke to get my 2 cents In. or courso there are going to
bt those that have complaints. We aU have that But I want to
oncourage a lot or the people who I have talked to to come rorward
WIth some very detlnlto and precise Ideas. I have round that there Is
a numbtr or citizens In the community that are conversant on this
Subject They have some good Ideas. They have some good
suggosUons and I think that those ought to bt brought to council In a
rormal manner, I think the ph. Is tht arena on which to do that
becauSt I don't think that It WIll just all bt complaining. lagroo WIth
Daryl on that The purposo Is to get a ~nse or what Is going on In the

Thero are many pooploln Iowa City have oo.n working on AIDS

both at the stato and naUonallev~1 right heroin tho community, And
I would oncouragotho council 10 oncourago Sylvia and othm 10 tako

pooplo In this community about Ibost Issuts and certainly one or Ulo

Larsonl Her tooling Is Ibat not all Intor&Sts groups race Ibe kind ot prejudice

many people are asking today It we could deter approval or Ibe polley
handbook or personnel pollcl&S so Ulat more poople could get a look
wt at Ibe socUon on AIDS. In rellecUng and talking to various poople-
geWng It approved and geWng Iboso protocUons In place ror everyone
In Ibe city's employee was Important so long as we made a
commitment Ulat art.r people have looked at It Which Sylvia certainly
thinks Is approprlat. to have oUler poople look at. It they have some
serious concerns Involve amending or changing language Ibat we
would be willing to look at It and In a Umely rash Ion to do Ulat. That
Is What I would like to proposo.lbat we go ahead. That I not move to
deter as I told somo pooplo Ibatl would so do. I Iblnk Ulo beltor
soluUon attor talking to Karen about It and some olber poople Ulat
would be that we approve It wllb the protocUons In place right away
and Ulen Ir Uley do have some concerns based on Ulelr
