Comment: Residents of this neighborhood have requested that the area be downzoned in an effort to preserve the character of the neighborhood and to protect the area Irom incompatible redeveloment. The Planning r.r,~ Zoning Commission will consider this request at its November 19, 1992, meeting.

(Z-9013) Comment: On November 19, 1990, Council approved the rezoning of the Whispering Meadows tract, subject to certain conditions. CoB.

Mayor, before we make a motion 10 set p.h. on this item, I'd like to suggest to council that another consideration be made at this point. I guess what I'd like to suggest at this time that 111e setting of the p.h. be deferred and that we give an oppOltunity to the property owners in the neighborhoods. in the neighborhood to get together to see if something cannot be worked out that would be amenable and compatible to all involved. I was contacted by the property owner who has stated in unequivocal terms I1mt they have given their word that nothing would take place until they had an opportunity to meet with various neighbors to see if some of the differences can't be resolved. And I think that I feel at this point that if this was a possibility I think that we should allow this to happen or at least see if something couldn't happen in this area before we get that involved in it. So I lay that on the table for council considemtion at this point. Horow/ If only for consideration the only way I would consider that would be if this also included someone from Historic Preservation Commission, because even though this is not a historic zone, it certainly is nearby and the area lends to the overall aspect of what it was. I think we've certainly have had other developers who've worked with the neighbors and it's worked. Larson/ I would prefer we not lay our heavy hand on until he has had a chance to work. He is a good developer who hasn't given any indication that he would break his word. If he did start building we could have an emergency meeting and put the momtoriu1l1 on. .Just setting a p.h. would do anyway. I think we ought to let people tlY to work things out. I am uncomfortable with our sitting here before something has even gone to P/Z. This was rushed to us and as long as you have got a promise by him that nothing is going to happen. I am wllling to live with that. Nov/ I would still like to see something in writing. McD/ I think that-Mr. Muller would you like to come to the podium please and nwke a couple of simple statements as far as what you would like to do and relate to council some of the conversations that you and Ijmve had to reassure them that you feel that you would like the opportunity to see if something could not be worked out. ,-----......,....-..... - - . .'., " : j " ", " <. . -L, , -', -, , , ~, it4a page 2 Jim lvluller/1l25 Seymore. I am not actually a property owner. My wife is half owner of the property. Cindy Cook owns the other half. I am the developer of the property. Basically the reason I am not the property owner or it is in my name is probably because of my business which is kind of a gray area to get into when you are actually 11111ning a plumbing company. You probably should not being doing this type of work but if the opportunity is there I just as soon probably pursue it. This whole thing kind of got out of hand a little bit and took off just from neighborly conversations with the neighbors where we rehabbed the house at 942. We got possession of that on July 13 or 15. I can't quite recall what the date was. And it was done August 15. The total rehab. And some of the neighbors which Judy has been in the property and I think she can stand up for what has been done for that property. It is probably a $30, 000 turned into a $78,000 house and the intent in the neighborhood is not to go in t1lere and trash our t1le neighborhood and build some big ugly building there. The backgrOlUld on the thing. We had gone to 1>/2 and talked to Monica Moen about the possibilities of building three structures facing Evans Street. We did a property up on 209 Bloomington last summer which pretty much fits the neighborhood as much as close as you can probably get with an old structure that surrounds it. It is still new. It looks new when you drive by but it does blend. It blends in there fairly well I t1link. We have had a couple of projects that haven't been with the best. They look llke army barracks and I will admit it and that is probably at a disadvantage to us for being involved in that project. But I think we are able to do the quality of work, Work with the neighbors. Make evelybody happy in this situation. Back to the three house item. After talking to Monica ane! she said that was a good idea we should probably go ahead and proceed with that concept. I talked to the building inspector who had a meeting with one of the conllllunity service groups in town that are looking for a facility. And he had mentioned that he know the potential of the lot that could develop into what we are trying to do here. And that is where the slx-plex came into play. The six plex IVould Hctually be attached to the old house at 942. 942 would be used as there office space and the sJx-plex built not so much as change-I do have the blue prints with a plat plan that ;; , " , , , ", #4a page 3 actually shows the layout of the whole structure. I could leave those with you if you IVant to review them. Basically they would be using the sL'\-plex structure for their housing. It takes a special exception for this group to come in. The first thing I did was when the concept was brought to me I went down and talked to Doug 13o0throy and I had mentioned to Doug what we wanted to do. With our intent. We went through-first I wanted to know what it took to get a special exception. And there were seven points there that he went down the list and he didn't see any except there was one where it said if it devaluates the property, the surrounding properties. If anybody has driven by that facility or by the area out there 950 is a house that we do have some people living in and it does have a city rental permit but I am really not sure how. The permit came along with the property when we bought it. It -I have been in worse but I have been in a lot better. It is borderline. Susan, I had a conversation with her and she mentioned that all houses are savable but I think once there gets to a point which we had Steve Shoanhorst cmd Pam out to take a walk through to see if there IVas anything in there that they wanted. The only thing that they wanted was a couple of door knobs. They said the rest wasn't fit and there was no value to them which I know it is hard to believe. I would gladly walk you through it. So we ended up we are trying to work with this community group to try and get a project for them that would work for them and work for the neighborhood and basically we had Muiler had done quite a bit of volunteer work for this particular project when they do have a problem. They call and we usually go out and there were a lot of times we would do it with no labor charges or part charges. Bul I do believe that these people have a purpose in the community. They are in the community and they need the support also. Larson! Jjm, I think 11 is important to get Into the record that you will agree that If we don't set the p.h. tonight you won't start any progress on actual construction until after we set a p.h, If' we get to that point. Muller! There is no problem there, The penuit is ready though. I mean I could-they called me the other day and said it was ready. Nov! We all understand that it Is ready. We all understand that you could go in tomorrow morning and pick it up, We would just " '.'r i il ~. i. #4a page 4 like some reassurance that you will not do this before coming to council again [md letting us know holV the neighbors are getting along with this. Muller/ AmI honest, .101111. McD/ Yes, to my knowledge. yes you are. I have no reason to think that you would change any commitment that you have made and I IVould think that since you have stated this and I would also hope tlmt you, as Naomi has said, tlmt you would keep us informed as to how things might be progressing. Muller/ If you would like to have your attorney write it up on a piece of paper now I will sign it. I won't start it. If my word isn't good enough. Larson/ Just s the public doesn't think that we are just trusting somebody we mayor may not know. The whole point of tlle matter is that if you were to start construction we could have an emergency meeting and set tile p.h. and then he IVould have to stop so long as substantial progress hadn't been made. It is not complete trust. A little of both. Horow/ We have done this before with another developer in terms of a developer getting together with the neighbors and letting the neighbors have a real input in this and not a superficial one. That is there property. They own those properties around there and they do have something invested in them. IvIuller/ If the statement wouldn't have been made about moving the old house from 950 to the back yard of 942 I don't even believe we would be here tonight. And that was just neighborly talk. Horow/ But my only reason for supporting this is in terms of getting the neighbors involved in it. That is what my main concern is, Muller/ I IVould just like to say that Lisa Swengle called me from the Press Citizen today and asked me-she was trying to get me up in arms a llttle bit and say some stuff that- I probably feel inside but I am not going to be saying those things anymore. Keep them to myself. And I would just llke to let It be known that the only comment that I made to her that I wanted to be put in the Press Citizen is that I wanted to work with the neighbors and anythJng else that might show up in that paper tomorrow- I know they never misquote anybody but- Courtney/ I entertain a motion to defer setting the p.h. indeJ1nitely. Moved and seconded (Nov/McD). Discllssion. Larson/ Mayor, thflre are people that want to talk. ;' ~ '.I , , , , ~. , #4a page 5 Courtney/ I don't want to have a complete p.h. here but if you represent the general feeling of the neighborhood we will- Judy Sveverson/ 947 E. Market. I was in the house that the Mullers own. Mr. Muller was in to fLx it up. They did a wonderful job. That is what we want in our neighborhood is people to come in and fLx the houses up. I do have a problem with a sLx-plex. That parking lot is going to be a IS car parking lot which will be in my back yard. That is bigger than QuikTrip. And that is noisy and loud and I have a real problem with that. When I think about it I get really upset. Mr. Muller has offered to sit down and talk to us. We are willing to negotiate with lvlr. Muller on this project. Hopefully we can come to agreement. My only problem is that once this has all come about we realize what zoning area we are in and even if lvIr. Muller and the neighbors come to some agreement we can't guarantee that this won't happen again and it has taken us what a month and a half to get to this point and it is a lot of time and a lot of energy. We are not lawyers and this was not easy to get this far and to understand the steps that we had to take. I don't want to start over. McD/ Well, i think thought too, if i am not-if I understand correctly though too, Mrs. Severson. even though that we might defer setting a p.h. this is still on P/Z schedule to review the area which they were going to do in some of their future meetings. Now what we are doing at this point is just deferring. We do not know what kind of review that we are going t go through. We do not have any idea at this point what kind of recommendation really that we will get from them. This does not interrupt the nOl1nal schedule that would go through a rezoning process. And that is probably going to be going through the process over the next several weeks. Severson/ But we are really not asking you to do anything other than just keep the process going. Courtney/It doesn't stop that process. McD/We don't set their agenda. So if I understand correctly that is scheduled for their agenda to start the review of that particular area, Courtney/ Maybe it would help if Monica would just track through what the process will be from here on out for you, Monica Moen/ The P/Z Commission has indicated a concern about the opportunity to bullet two dwellings In the RM-12 zone. And I,'; I ,.. 'I I , ' ~. I. ' #4a page 6 have looked at the issue and have deferred consideration of the item to its Decem ber 17 meeting. So they will take up tilis issue at that time. Following the P/Z Commission's deliberations and if they come to a conclusion and a recommendation and that recommendation will be forwarded to you for your consideration. Courtney I Then at that time we would then set the p.h. !\'Ioenl That is correct. Novl Well there is no point in setting a p.h. the 15th because we won't have ]J/Z report anyway. Moenl That is con'ect. And I am not sure actually what will come out of Ji/Z Commission arena. It may be a recommendation to down zone to RS-12. It may be a creation of a new zone that would incorporate some design considerations. McDI It may be a recommendation to leave it the same. That is a possibility. Moen! That is an option, yes. Seversonl The 17th of December. Larsonl That is really the important meeting for the neighborhood because tileir recommendations about this area ought to be zones are going to be velY important to council and encompass the whole larger issue rather than just this one lot. The whole neighborhood. Novl I think we also have to mention that we are concerned about other zones. If a two house lot is inappropriate on that size zone then it is inappropliate on other streets as well. Courtney I I would suggest that the develop and the neighbors make use of our Neighborhood Sen1ces coordinator to get the meetings put together. It worked velY well for the ADS project. I would suggest- Larsonl She is right here in the audience if you i!aven't met Jler, Courtneyl Any further discussion. Horowl So this is to defer until aaer P/Z recommendation. Courtneyl Right. 111 essence what it docs it put it back on the nonllal track of things. All in favor (aye) Motion passes. : .':'; I I , , i I I i :" ~. ~.-._,-~_._.~~,_.. -- ,- "'1 I , ' 1t4b page 1 Courtney//lJoved and seconded (Horow/McD) to set p.h. for December 15. This is a change form what is printed In the agenda. Discussion. Novl Monica, can we have a clarification on P/Z will consider this item on November 19. That can't be conect. That wouldn't be December 17 also. Moen! The P IZ Commission made a recommendation on tillS already at its last meeting. That was Thursday evening, the 19th and they recommended in favor of amending the conditional zoning agreement. NovlSo we should delete the whole sentience that says P/Z Commission will consider this item. Moenl Yes. The reason that it is framed that IVay is the agenda needs to be set on Thursday morning. The Commission meets that evening. So we are not able to predict what their action will be so that is the reason we frame it that way. Courtney/ Are you saying that they are unpredictable. Novl The same paragraph said that they approved it. Horowl I have one other comment and that is Monica it is my understanding that the conditions t11at staff has recommended that basements may be constl1lcted on lots which are abutted by a subsurface drainage system provided that certain conditions are met. By this staff does not say the basements are going to say dry. It Is just going to say that if enough tlling is done and enough technological advances are put into these they can have a basement. But It doesn't say that is necessarily going to stay dIY. Moenl Nol They is somewhat of an expectation that given those mechanisms that it will relieve the situation. It is not a guarantee that the problems-that the basements will remain dlY. Horowl I want to get that in the record because I think- Moenl Naomi, I think the confusion there is that It is coincidental that the council approved this November 19, 1990. The P/Z Commission looked at this again in November 19 of this year. Novl And it was the staff that had a report recommending it on November 19. Moenl Correct. Courtneyl Any other discussion on setting the p.h. All in favor (aye) Motion passes. " ! ,< '-. '; ,',," - . " , " , ' Agenda Iowa City City Council November 24, 1992 Page 6 'j.;J. 301 c.

I am one of the co-developers of this project. There is a couple of reasons that I want to come up here tonight and one of tilem is part1y because of Susan and Naomi's concern with the first phase of the project. We have got that completed at this point. And we have done the culverts the way we said we were going to. The grading is done. We had I think approximately four and half inches of rain between Friday and Sunday and after being over there myself and visiting with the neighbors, the situation is actually better than the way it was before. A lot of the drainage that we have done has gone down stream. This is upstream. And that has worked out to the benefit of everybody I think. And the real reason that I really want to come up here to thank John Dane for selling this property and his offer to donate approximately ten acres of his 40 acre parcel to the City of Iowa City. Willow Creek Park is extremely over crowded at this point with soccer and evelything else and parking is a problem there and everything else and I t11ink that I am just glad to be a part of this Wit11 John Dame because he has lived here all of his life and I have lived mine here and tile opportunity to c,\:tend that park is going to benefit everybody over there and I think, if possible, I would like to have that park named after him if the city council can do that or if evelybody can at the point which John has said he is going to do at some time either before the end of the year or the first part of next year. Not too many times developers get the chance to be able to be involved in something where it benefits evelybody with parks and evelything and I thank that John should be commended for that Thank you.

There are a couple of noteworthy events that we would like to bring to your attention. One is the Holiday Bazaar which is held on the 6th of December. This is a Sunday afternoon from 2-4 PM. And this is crafts and tllings' that they've spent a long time preparing so that children from 3-12 can purchase them as gifts for their parents and siblings and that they can then give them as gifts. These are made and presented at a velY minimal cost so they could participate in the Christmas gMng as well as the receiving. It is a velY worthwhile thing and velY heartwarming to see this done. Any and all of you that would like to see that again, it is Sunday, December 6 from 2-4 PM> I think it would be a fun thing just to visit. Then on Thursday December 10, 7:30, the Iowa City Community Theater is presenting the Dining Room and tillS is a benefit for the Senior Center Commission, We have refreshments to go with this and the cost is $10 and we plan to use this amount and we are hoping to make $2,400 to put in two of the door openers for tile front doors for those who do need help. We feel it is a velY velY good thing to have. We have tllem on other doors there and I think with some of our older people not being as hail and hearty as I am we do need these. So hopefully we will be able to make this work and make the amount of money that we need. Again we extend an invitation to all of you who would like to attend that. I understand the play Is excellent and we hope the participation is everybody, not only slmior citizens but the community as well and it wl1l help the selllor citizens. Thank you, ,Courtney/ Thank you. Anyone e]se- ,,' .' , :" .--........,....-".'. , ~, In page 1 Courtney/ Moved by McD, seconded by Ambr. Discussion. Larson/ Steve would you tell us why we need this. Atkins/ Well, several reasons I think. #1 is that our existing information booth is not accessible to the handicapped with respect to anyone coming into the building who would like to come to the information desk and receive information. Secondly we would like to install the A TM machine. As many of you know many of the transactions that occur at the Treasurer's Office. Particularly like in parking and tickets and so forth require cash and often times folks come in and do not have the cash. . Larson/ Why isn't it accessible to handicapped. Atkins/ If you look at it the handicap catU10t pull up to the counter and actually do business with someone l1lere. They GUl get into the lobby. The telephone, for example, is in the police ,'depart.ment. That also is not handicap accessible. The ATM machine would also again be accessible to those folks. We are , going to bring some of our duplicating equipment out of l1le · itU1er paIt of the building and bring it out here so that also can . ,'beaccessible. SO the whole intent- also bring the lobby up to , . . .."fJrecode., , ,.' ,'larson/Thislsall to make everything comply with the ADA. ,'" . ',Atkins/Yes.

Atkins/ This is clearly intended to make tllis building more accessible to the public from all perspectives. I can recall shortly after my arrival I remember Bili mentioning specifically to me that happen to be one of the long term goals that we were going to do everything we can.

Randy, we did set the goal for 8:30 ton.ight. Larson/ I heard that you had a wage that we would get done by 8:30 and I only have got... I wanted to make a couple of comments about the leaf burning ban. First of all I wanted to say I appreciate the Press Citizen's educational efforts because they were extensive and that was the good thing about revisiting this issue I think. The only exception I would take with the article today I think was pretty good but it wasn't just the health and environmental concerns that led me to decide that we should stick with the ban but also our fire chiefs strong recommendation that we stay with it. So on matters of police and fire matters in particularly I tend to give great weight to their recommendations. So that had ,m impact with me also. My only quibble with the article was that it quoted me correctly saying I am very willing to change my mind if I was wrong to begin with. I think I am almost unique in that, as a politician, to be willing to change my mind. In this case I just want to make it clear that I did vote for the ban to begin with. McD/ I have never known him to be wrong. Larson/ I thought it made some confasion there that I was one of the four people for the ban to begin with. If I changed my mind about anything it was just that I didn't want to change the ban that we instituted. I just want to say that I think it was good that we revisited it and that we looked to see whether the city's efforts to take care of the leaves were working well and I am convinced that they are and I am glad to see that we could take care of the leaves without burning them. I will let everything else wait until the holiday schedule talk, lIorow/ Naomi, Bill and I had an absolutely wonderful time at the open housing at the housing of engine 1t3. That was fun. God, in her InJ1nite wisdom, had it rain so we had an automatic baptism. It was great. And we actually did push the engine in. Sort of. Nov/ They did have the motor running in reverse, 1I01'Ow/ None the less we were out there pushing it. The thing that I was excited about was the fact that there were so many of the mutual aid fire departments there. They all brought their engines and proceeded to parade through the city. But those - , '."1 I , , .' , ,".',. ., " ", ~ WL.'. ,., " ..' ~. #10 page 2 members of those fire departments with Iowa City and Coralville really really do pull for each other, support each other, and are genuinely excited when something like this takes place and I suspect we are going 10 see some more housing dotted around Johnson County and the area. They really enjoyed themselves and it was good to see the exchange, Their families were there. We just had an awfully good time. Now that didn't take so long, did it John. McD/ I like 111<1t. God In her infinite wisdom... Co Ultney / Every year when the holidays schedule comes up we run Into many many conllicts on our scheduling wilh council meetings and it is one of the tougher decisions tlmt end up being made. It appears like December is going to be cut down to two meetings. One on the 14 and one on the 15. The 14 is an informal and tlle 15 is a formal session. .lust so that 111e press can get that out. It would normally be meetings on the 7, 8 mld 21, and 22. Former Mayor McD informed me we never had a council meeting on the week of Christmas holiday and the City Clerk Is going to check that out and see If that is true or not. We do have many contlicts so If you can get the IVord out. 14th and 15th will be 111e meetings In December. In ]anuaIY for council's Information we are scheduling a few budget sessions. It is going to be real easy this year. It shouldn't take long. Larson/ What will our next council meeting be In]anuary. Courtney / We will have our regulm' council meetings on the 4th and 5tll. Those are normally scheduled. Budget session CHANGE TAPE TO REEL 92-104 SIDE 1 Courtney/ And another budget session on the 14th, 5:30-9:30, Tuesday and Thursday of that week, Then normal sessions on the 18111 and 19th. Part of the 18th meeting will be finishing up the budget. And then when we get Into February we will be hm~ng p.h. on the budget and so on. Larson/ Wlmt happen to our procedure of tlying to schedule these things jointly. We have always sat down and discussed when our budget meetings are going to be. Worked out everybody schedules. Did you just change that this year. Courtney/ Do you have a problem wJth some of them. McOl Obviously he does. .....:. " I " , i ~. 1t1O page 3 I I I I I I Larson! Purely a process question. I think it is better if council decides together when their meetings are going to be rather than- Courtney! Well, evelyone had prelly much informed Mmian of their vacation schedule during the season and so forth and frankly It was the only nights left. McD! Are you talking about January. Larson! I am talking about Janumy. I didn't have any problems with the city council meetings in December. We have aiways just sat down and decided when we were going to do budget meetings. Courtney! Well we have one council person that is going to be gone for a full month. We have others gone for a week at a time. Others gone for a week and a half and that is it all fits in. Those are the times that are left. Larson! I am not going to miss one. My question is about the process. McD! As far as the budget meetings since those are scheduled informal meetings, really. We do have some flexibility there. For example, I might have a problem on the Thursday night meeting. But we can talk. There is some l1exibility built in there. Courtney! I have to deal with the staff on these things too and when , they can get the things ready for us. McD! Okay. Courtney! The only other Item I had tonight since we won't have anotiler meeting before tile school bond referendum vote comes up. I would urge evelyone to get out and vote on December 8th. TIY not to editorialize much here but In the past year we have had220 new housing starts in Iowa City and we have had applications for annexation for an extra 600 and some acres and the schools aren't going to get any emptier. , Novl We also ought to explain that there are two questions on the ballotthlstlme.
