CITY OF IOWA CITY
The Honorable Mlnnene Doderer
2008 Dunlap Ct.
Iowa City, IA 52245
Dear Mlnnette:
The purpose of my letter Is to express my concerns wnh respect to H.F, 672, an act which ,would greatly reduce
the effectiveness of the urban renewal law and the use of tax Increment financing, Though the Inlenl of the bill,
which Is apparently designed to limit the abuses of tax Increment financing, may have some mern, H,F, 672 has
the potential of crippling cities' abilities to effectively use tax Increment financing, Our two major concems are
1) the requirement of forming a fiscal review commntee and the potential delays this could create and 2)
undermining the effectiveness of a TIF district by changing the dale at which the base assessment occurs,
Requiring a municipality to notify affected taxing districts of a proposed TIF project Is not an unreasonable
requirement. However, the proposed process In H,F, 672 co~ld cause untimely delays for sne specific economic
development TIF projects thus potentially requclng a communny's ability to compete with other states for Industrial
projects, Rather than requiring the formation 01 a fiscal review committee to Identny fiscal Impacts I n would seem
more appropriate that an affected taxing district be given the opportunity to demonstrate how the TIFs use would
negatively Impact the fiscal operations of that district or jurisdiction, .
A possible allernatlve would be to notity the aflected laxing districts at the same time the plan Is sent to the
planning commission for review, Each taxing district would then have a set time by which they could provide
comment to the clly regarding how the proposed project would positively or negatively Impact the operations of
the .taxlng district.

The use of TIF districts for traditional urban renewal projects would also be undermined by changing the dale at
which the base assessment occurs from 'as of January 1 of the calendar year preceding the eflectlve date of the
ordinance' to 'as of January 1 01 the calendar year preceding the first calendar year in which the municipality
certijles to the county auditor the amount of loans, advances, Indebtedness, or bonds payable from the division
of property tax revenue', The purpose of a TIF district In an urban renewal area Is to encourage redevelopment
01 the area through public Investment In the area, The proposed change would potentially diminish the tax
revenue generated In a district by reducing the Incremental property value that would be subject to a TIF program.
We appreciate the concerns of those expressed at the state legislature, but hope that our representatives would
consider actions that limit abuses while not undermining the purpose and use of tax Increment financing as a
development tool,
Sincerely,

Re: Airport
As the debate continues with respect to the Iowa City Municipal Airport and our requirement to
fulfill FAA compliance standards, I have a number of concerns that I feel must be brought to your
atlentlon, most of which are of a political and financial nature, I am concerned you may be
trapped Into a decision that not .only you will not like, but also the public's acceptance of your
decision will be less than understanding, I wish to avoid passing judgment on proposed airport
alternatives; however, there seems to be an assumption that a 'do nothing' option Is acceptable,
The definition of a 'do nothing' option also has been debated with many Individual opinions and
expectations. Of the Information I have avallable~ and I recognize It may not be In the same detail
as members of the Airport Commission, It reaffirms we will be required to meet FAA compliance
standardS regardless of whether we 'construct a new relocated airport or reconstruct on the
existing site, Doing nothing simply does not appear to be a realistic option, If we choose to stay
at our existing site, I believe there are many fiscal and polltlcal'lssues which will need your
atlentlon,
Remaining on our existing site does not relieve the City of FAA compliance standards, These
are not new, and have been on the FAA books since approximately 1988. To date, the FAA has
apparently been satisfied with our efforts to work toward fulfillment of compliance standards, I
have always understood the goal of tlie Airport Commission was to build an airport which will
meel our needs well Into the future with respect to providing a facility for current and future
aircraft, This leads to several questions, Can we fulfill compliance standards at the existing
airport site and meel current and future aircraft needs? This appears to be, at best, a remote
posslblllly which will Incur substantial cost to the City and the FAA, The next question to arise
will be whether the FAA Is willing to undertake such an Investment when they could build a new

airport and resolve the design compliance questions In an environment (relocated airport) that
could accommodate aviation needs well Into the future.
The Initial and likely most difficult element of your decision with respect to compliance standards
Is a sIgnIficant capital program Investment, particularly the purchase of private property. The
bowling alley, parts of the 4.H farm, a trailer court, etc, all appear to need to be purchased and
structures demolished within runway protection zones In order to comply with design standards,
Regardless of relocation or renovation at the existing site, private property will be purchased,
Additionally, the airport Is approaching 50 years old and the runways, taxiways, hangars, and
terminal building will need significant repair or replacement. The recent study did not discuss the
terminal bulfdlng, however, some factor for compliance with ADA must be considered In addition
to whether the existing building Is even acceptable, If the prevailing political Interest were to
remain for doing this work at the existing site, It would appear we would be Investing heavily In
an airport which will not meet aviation needs either present or future, A significant capital
expense will likely cause a community debate over the Investment In an airport, At the very least,
I suspect the debate will occur with respect to the community's willingness to Invest In an airport
recognizing there will be little return, that Is, the resulting airport when renovated will have
resulted In newer, but not Improved facilities with respect to aircraft capabilities. As Indicated In
Option 1 (current site) from the airport study, the major drawback to this altematlve Is the Inability
of the current site to provide a facility necessary to accommodate the range of aircraft that
oresentlv use the airport,
As the deterioration of the capital assets at the airport continues, as well as our obligation to fulfill
FAA compliance standards, It may hit at precisely the wrong financial point In time In our
community's history. As you know, we are planning expenses In the neighborhood of $40.to $70
million for renovated water and sewer system, as well as many other projects, Significant capital
expense, whether It be with FAA funds and limited City, or a substantial City share with limited
FAA money, I am sure you can appreciate the political and financial consequences and the likely
debale that will occur. There are many capital projects which will compete with the airport for
available monies, Additionally, once you h!ive made the Investment assuming a decision to
remain at the existing site, It would appear difficult to move the airport to another location at some
time In the future due to ail of the resources sunk Into the project. I cannot Imagine the FAA
being willing to finance further Investment for a new relocated airport If they have only recently
Invested In our existing site,

In further research, we also feel the Insurability of the airport may come Into question In the
future. If at any time the Issue of compliance standards Is questioned by the FAA, It could result
In a material change In our liability exposure and our Insurance representatives Indicate It could
result In grounds for removing the airport from our Insurance program. They also Indicate Ills
vlrtually'lmposslble to secure such Insurance from other markets, The FAA, as you can see, has
a significant controlling Influence over the airport, Its location, our future capital Investment, as
welf as the community's risk In owning and operating an airport,
This Is a knotty political problem and I believe we need to set aside time for discussion to review
these Issues, Regardless of circumstances, the ultimate disposition of the airport rests with the
City Council, I want you to be fully aware of the significant tlnanclal exposure that may occur,
and the fact that the FAA, while they appear to 'be willing to support our policy discussion
process, will be the key factor In any decision, The community's critique of the decision will also
be complex, particularly when no shortage of opinions exist. I. am sure the critique will be without
benefit of all available Information and therefore only cause further consternation, partlculariy If
the expectation Is that we can remain at the current site and handle current aircraft needs.
In summary, I believe the following represents the basic Issues:
1. The airport as a capital project will be In direct competition with other capital projects,
These other projects are more expensive, higher community profile, mandated by federal
. or state orders, and therefore community expectation Is far different. In preparing the
capital plan you will need to consider whether to set aside some fulure debt for the airport,
. calling further atlentlon to your commitment.
2. In order to satisfy compliance slandards, we will need to make further acqulslllons of
private property, many of which are high profile properties, Regardless of opllon, further
properly acqulsll/on appears Inevitable. I do have a concern whether the consultant
Indication of approximately $5 million (existing site) cost Is a realistic number. For
example, the purchase of a bowling alley Involves more than merely compensating for
bulfdlngs and land, You must consider the value of the business,
3. With Investment In the existing site and the new compliance standards sallsfled, we will
have a reduced capability airport, as Indicated by the airport consultant,

4, I believe the community debate will end up In a simple straightforward decision as to
whether or not the Investment Is worthwhile In the existing site, and whether the airport
Is as Important as other capital needs, water, sewer, open space, streets.
5, The Issue of moving the airport and the rural complaints have not diminished and your
'neighborliness' as a City Council will be called Into question, Just as It will when you look
to purchase property In runway protection zones, Whether you purchase an outlying farm
for a relocated airport, or the bowling alley, etc. for a renovaled existing site, such property
acquisition seems to always cause substantial criticism,
6. If you move the airport to a new site, It will require a referendum for any capital borrowing,
Can you assess the likelihood of passage of such a bond referendum? If a bond Issue
does not pass, It brings us right back to the option of using the existing site, and ultimately
an undesirable capital asset that does not meet current or future needs.
7, The airport Issue Is complex with many opinions, yet how do you generale a meaningful
decision about the airport, which Is part of our community's history, without raising the
Issue of what could happen If we were to close It. That question was apparently not
considered within the realm of options by the Commission, Such a debate would certainly
not satisfy the Interests of the Airport Commission, I recognize this results In a difficult
political decision for you, but we have the possibility of a community debate over the
political popularity of a public service (airport), the weight of the FAA's money to see that
It continues, and many other community Interests,
I
I
i; .
I believe the airport, Its future, our Investment exposure and I,s relationship with other public
services we provide needs to be brought Inlo focus as soon as possible, or the momentum of a
negative debate will continue to work against you In this decision, I do not know the outcome of
your debate, but the longer you walt your options appear to grow fewer, and definitely more
complex. The FAA can walt as long as they like because they control the finances, the
standards, and the timing, We controlliltle but will end up on the receiving end of the outcome
of a. polley we have not guided to conclusion, but have been steered through by others with
circumstances they created for you, It would appear If we are to remain at the existing site, It
needs to be stated so a plan can be formulated to accomplish that goal, Identify the financial
consequences, and confirm FAA support.

Re: Flood Damage Estimate to Public Property
In order to provide our Congressional delegation with some idea of the cost todate, as well
as projected costs associated with the City's involvement in flood recovery and general
cleanup, we have assembled an estimate of costs, This information represents our cost
estimates through July 21 and therefore any costs that are incurred after that date must be
added to this estimate. Keep in mind that the longer the flood water remains, the greater
potential for cost associated with cleanup, as well' as damage to public property.

Our immediate City response in the form of personnel and equipment has resulted in a cost
of $205,000. Generally speaking, you can estimate that our response costs approximately
$100,000 Ii week beyond our routine public service responsibilities.
When estimating the cost of cleanup, we include such major projects as bridge maintenance,
riverbank erosion, street repair and reconstruction, park facility reconstruction such as tennis
courts, baseball fields, etc. and specifically the repair to Benton Street. The biggest single
project in the estimate is a reconstruction of Dubuque Street which is estimated to be $2
million. This is a very general estimate and whether we could even construct the street to
a height sufficient to protect it from future flood waters Is problematical,
These are, again, very rough estimetes but will give you some idea of our costs to date and
potential exposure. We will be using the number of $4.033 million.
Please keep In mind that es I have indicated, the costs will continue to grow the longer the
water remains. Our Congressional delegation has bean Informed. I will provide a more
detailed breakdown early next week.

Aa: Construction of Additional Levees ; 1
, .
, ,
We are beginning to receive requests from what ara certainly distraught residents and
business owners about the possibility of constructing additional sandbag levees to further
protect their pro parties and pump water so that businesses may reopen, As I am sure you
can appreciate, this is a very complex engineering and political decision as well as significant
undertaking. I have requested that Aick talk with representatives of the Corps of Engineers
to determine whether the circumstances in our flooded areas are aven practical from a
technical standpoint to consider such work, We as a city government do not have the
resources, that Is in the form of City crews and the type of equipment that might be
necessary to construct some of these levees. Additionally, we have the problem of deter-
mining which area would receive the levee construction, Certainly, it will be difficult to make
such a choice; however, we will discuss with the Corps the possibilities. I would assume if
we receive any indication that this work can be done, it will require coordinating our work
effort with the Corps, National Guard, and likely private contractors, if they are available,

We hava re'ceived particular intarest from the South Gilbert Street businasses. This area has
received a quick engineering analysis by our staff and It would prove to be a most difficult
situation. In order to construct the sandbag wall to protact those properties, it would require
our going into the water, searching for and plugging manholes as well as determining a
location to provide for e secure foundation for such a levee, This is a problem we believe
could result in dangerous circumstances for workers involved for little gain, The river's edge
. Is sand and rubble and, tharefora, the construction of a wall may simply be a futile effort in
that the river water pressure may find its way through the rubble and sand, in other words
under the levee structure. Additionally, onca the levee is constructed, we would need to

pump the area dry, which could take many days, I do not wish to give these businesses a
false sense of security in thet if we were able to build such a levee, pump the area dry, that
they are forever protected, If the river were to breach the levee they could be closed a
second time following their cleanup effort.
We will continue to pursue these construction options; however, they are very expensive and
we are not fully sure of whether they can provide the benefit that individuals expect. Also,
we are not aware of federal financial support and the levee would need to be removed, at City
expense. I assume City liability could increase dramatically if we are directly involved in such
construction, If a levee wall were to collapse, the water pressure, force of flow, could cause
significant damage.
There has been some comparison to the work being undertaken in Coralville to reopen First
Avenue by the sandbag levee they recently constructed, Our circumstances are far different
in thet Coralville attempting to reopen First Avenue and a few businesses will enjoy the
benefit of that work. The levee is also built on a stable, paved surface,. Protecting these
businesses from Clear Creek is a far different set of circumstances than attempting to protect
businesses from the flow of the Iowa River,
We will continue to pursue all. options in order to accommodate all of our business and citizen
requests.

Re: Service Shedding
By the subject matter of this memorandum, I suspect you were curious as to what 'service
shedding" means, I am not sure whether I learned of the term as one of the recent buzzwords
being bantered about among municipal, county, and school district officials or inadvertently
invented the term, What it simply means is ,that due to revenue shortfalls or other restrictions
on one particular government, they do their best to unload, pass off costs, or in any other
way possible have a public service provided by another governmental unit.. At the very least,
substantially reduce the cost to one government by transfer of costs (not necessarily
responsibility) to another,
Upon reflecting about this Issue, it appears that we may have some local examples and issues
developing that could have a long-term, and possibly profound, financial effect upon the City
government. These circumstances may occur incrementally and thereby can often go
unnoticed,
While I do not see a deliberate pattern developing, clearly other Iowa City area governments
are looking to other governments to either amend an existing public service program
reletionship, assume costs not traditionally the responsibility of another, or seek financial
support diractly or indirectly for a program/project initiative. The school district, for example,
constructed a new school in a policy atmosphere conducive to their needs and now requires
the City through City financial resources to build capital facilities to satisfy a school district
project need. Another recent example is a traffic study undertaken by the school district
whereby they are advised what types of traffic improvements their consultant feels are
necessary and therefore it will certainly become City responsibility to finance these
Improvements, A very subtle but recent change was the school policy, which Is now

apparently being officially enforced by the school district is that student crossing guards
cannot be out of sight of the school. This simply means that the parents will look to others,
notebly other governments, to satisfy their children's street crossing safety requirements,
such as the corner of Third and Court near Hoover School as mentioned in the recent school
sponsored traffic study. I assume this Jocation is thought to be out of sight of the school.
Adult crossing guards become the obvious answer at City expense,
The debate concerning SEATS, not only from the school district perspective but also the
county, is a further example of passing costs along to other jurisdictions. The library
negotiations involved a difference of opinion as to who should pay and how much. A new
issue about to arise is the contractual relationship between the Senior Center and the nutrition
program--Congregate Meals.-and how we do business with the County in the provision of this
public service at a City-owned facility. This will likely create additional debate among the
elected boards governing the various public services provided.
I do not know the answer to this issue but I suspect it is a pattern of behavior that will likely
continue and the City, as a general purpose local government and the most high profile
. government in our area, I expect we will receive the most requests, The financial obligations
will likely fall on the City Council more so than they have in the past, There is certainly a
need for area governments to cooperate and serve our community, but we also must be awaie
of the consequences. I simply wanted to alert you to this observation and I believe the
appropriate financiel caution needs to be exercised,

Melrose Avenue Neighborhood Association
July 15, 1993
To the legislators attending the meeting of the Melrose Avenue Neighborhood
Association:
You have been kind enough to come to this meeting at short notice, These
are the topics on which we would like to be heard:
1. It Is vital that there be no entrance/exit on Melrose Avenue to the new UIHC
facility and parking ramp, There are adequate options for entering the facility
from Hawkins Drive and South Grand Avenue, A "cut" on the North side of Melrose
Avenue will create left tUms Into and out of the facility/parking ramp, which will
seriously disrupt the flow of traffic on Melrose,

2, It Is time to pass legislation which will require the University to obtain approval
from City government for changes In Its structures and traffic patterns which have
Impact on the residents of the city, legiSlation which will require the University to
be a good neighbor, consulting neighborhood residents Who will be affected by
said changes In structures and traffic patterns,
Background:
'This winter, the Melrose Avenue Neighborhood Association requested a
meeting with the University Hospital to discuss their plans for automobile access
to their new bUildings, known for'the moment as the "final phase," As a result of
this meeting, a task force was formed made up of neighbors and representatives
of all Interested parties Including the city, This group met twice, but there was no
willingness on the part of UIHC to consider or stUdy alternatives offered for
discussion by the neighbors, The Clty, given Its recent costly lawsuit against the
University, was understandably reluctant to subject Its citizens to another struggle,
'In a letter dated February 26, 1993, Douglas True, Vice President for
finance and UniV8r:iity services wrote rather unbendlngly of the Unlverslty's
Intentions With regard to what Is, after all, a city street. His conclusion begins, "It Is
apparent that delay or further stUdy of alternatives will not produce better
options to widening Melrose: In fact, this Is not apparent to us, at least In part
because we, the residents, voters, and tax payers of the Melrose Avenue
Neighborhood have not been Included In the planning process, either directly or
through our elected officials, We ask you, as our representatives, to examine this
matter,
Thank you

Your letter was recently discussed by the City Council. In that letter. you request a member
of the Univarsity Heights community organization to participate in the focus group!
environmental assessment regarding the Melrose Avenue bridge reconstruction project, I
believe the Iowa City City Council's position is that the University Heights City Council, as a
prospective member of this focus group, can feel free to appoint any individual they would
so choose. It need not be a member of University Heights' City Council. The Iowa City City
Council. I believe, is reluctant to begin expanding the focus group by additional members at
this time, Other interested individuals and organizations are also likely to request
participation, and thereby the size of the focus group c'an grow to a point where it could be
unmanageable in a process of facilitation and consensus building, I believe the most important
aspect for a successful facilitation concerning a community issue Is that "points of view" are
. represented on the focus group and not merely "position~" on the issue at hand, The group
of representative organizations hopefUlly will bring with them such points of view and thereby
the selected engineering firm. which will prepare the environmental assessment. can
Incorporate all viewpoints Into the review and analysis,

Dear Larry:
Attached Is a summary of the Council travel for FY91, FY92, and FY93. If you require the
previous five fiscal years, it will take some time to dssemble, due to computer capability with
respect to historic information. I would prefer not assembling that information at this time,
given the other pressures on our Accounting Division with respect to special reports, primarily
the application for federal aid in rasponse to the flooding conditions, Let ma know.

The Honorable. Darrel Courtney
410 E. Waehington
Iowa City, IA 52240
ReI Benjamin F. ShBmbaugh Houss, 219 H. Clinton, Iowa City, Johnson County
Dear Mayor CourtneYI
We are p1eaeed to inform you that the abQve narned property, which ie located
within your community, will be coneidered by the State National Regieter
Nominatione Review Committee for nomination to the National Register of
Hietoric Places on August 19, 1993. The National Register is the Fedsra1
Governmsnt's official list of historic properties worthy of preesrvation.
Lieting in the National Rsgister providee rscognition and aseiete in
preaerving our Nation's heritags. Enclosed is a copy of the criteria under
which propsrtiss ars evaluated.
Lieting in ths National Register providee the following benefita to hietoric
propertiea I
--Conaideration in the planning for Federal, federally 1icsnsed, and
federally aasietsd projscts. Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act of 1966 rsquirss Federal agencies allow the Advieory
Council on Hietoric Pr~eervation an opportunity to commsnt on projecte
affecting hietoric properties listed in the National Regieter. For
further information p1eaee refer to 36 CFR 800.
--Eligibility for Federal tax benefite. If a property ie lieted in the
National Regieter, certain Federal tax provisions may apply. The Tax
Reform Act of 1986 reviees the hiatoric preeervation tax incentives
authori~ed by Congrsss in ths Tax Reform Act of 1976, the Revenus Act of
1978, ths Tax Treatment Exteneion Act of 1980, the Economic Recovery Tax
Act of 1981, and Tax Reform Act of 1984, and ae of January 1, 1987,
provideD for a 20 percent invsotment tax credit with a full adjustment
to baeis for rehabilitating hietoric commercial, industrial, end rental
rseidential buildings. The former 15 percent and 20 percsnt inveatment
Tax Credit a (ITCa for rehabilitationa of older commercial buildings are
combined into a aingle 10 percent ITC for commercial or induatrial
buildinge built bsfore 1936. Thia can be combined with a 15-year coat
recovery period for ths adjuated baais of the building. Certified
atructuree with certified rehabilitations receive additional tax savings
because owners ars ellowed to reduce the baeis by one half the amount of
ths credit. (The Tax Treatment certified structures with certified .
rehabi1itationa received additional tax savinga because ownsra ars
allowed to reduce the baaie by one half the amount of the credit.) The
Tax Treatment Extsnaion Act of 1980 provide a Federal tax deductiona for
charitable contributiona for conservation purposes of partial intereots
in historically important land areas or structures. For further
information pleaae refer to 36 CFR 67. ,

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 26, 1993
To: CIIy Council
From: CIIy Manager
Re: Flood Response
For the lirst time In some time, tt appears we can provide you with some good news, In our early momlng
conversations (we have a dally 7:30 A.M, conference call) wtth the Corps of Engineers, we can expect an
approximate 2' rise In the water level In Iowa CIIy, This Is due to the Increased oulllow from the Reservoir,
However, this Is likely to be only a temporary Increase in that the amount of water coming Into the reservoir
Is dropping and the outflow will also begin to decline accordingly, The pool level of the Reservoir Is at
716,16 and dropping, The spillway level Is 712, and barring any substantial addlllonal rain, we can expect
river levels to begin to drop by next weekend, "It continues as we hope, an approximate one loot drop
could occur, The normal pool level of the Reservoir Is 683,

We continue to experience localized flooding and City crews will respond as In th9 past. Clllzens In the
S, Gilbert St. area have taken II upon themselves to build a small levy to help divert some water. The war!<
was undertaken by them wllh the Clly providing sand and sandbags, as we would have lor any
neighborhood, We have assessed the potential for levees In other parts of our communlly and generally
lound that II would be Impractical, n not Impossible, to construct given these flooding conditions.
Our water treatment plant remains safe and the water levels appear to be manageable, The Benton Street
sewer collapse continues to be a problem; however, war!< continues to address Ihatlssue, As you know,
the Benlon Slreet sewer Is under approximately It leel of water and wllh the collapse some bypass 10 the
Iowa River has occurred, Given the flow and the volume of water In the Iowa River, we do not anticipate
II being a major Issue,
Our cleanup response group Is quickly attempting to organize their set 01 Issues and we will provide you
addlllonallnformatlon shortly, Questions have arisen as to how to dispose of sandbags, how 10 clean Ihe
muck/mess from the 'streets, effect on our operating budget, etc, We are working to put together a plan
to specifically address these and many other Issues, We are also working 10 relum to some degree of
normalcy In our routine public service responslbllllles,

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 27, 1993
To: City Council
From: City Managar
Ra: Flood Response' Further Update
Following our Tuesday morning conference call with the Corps of Engineers, we have been
informed that the Reservoir level has continued to decline and is now at 71 !t,5. The inflow
is 15,100 cfs and dropping and outflow remains at 24,500 cfs. The weather forecast for
Tuesday was approximately 1/2 to 1 inch of rain and then clearing, Weather Service indicated
that a change in the weather pattern is likely to occur due to circumstances associated with
the jet stream.
The following represents what we believe to be, and in consultation with the Corps of
Engineers, a good weather schedule,
1. Thursday, July 29 - the Reservoir level should be at 714 and 1.380 and 965 can be
reopened.
2, Gunday, August 1 - the Reservoir level should be at 712. the outflow from the
emergency spillway will cease and discharge levels from the Reservoir will decline to
20,000 cfs, This could result In an approximately one foot decline in the water level
in Iowa City.
3. Friday August 6 - the Reservoir level should drop to 707 and the emergency
procedures implemented by the Corps of Engineers would discontinue,
4. Monday, August 9 -. discharge levels should drop to approximately 15,000 and we
will begin to implement our cleanup schedule and other programs,

Thursday, August 12 - the discharge level should drop further and students are likely
to begin to return to town, If the discharge level does drop to 12,000, we may be able
to open two lanes of Dubuque Street. Obviously, we will need to assess the damage
to the street at that time, but we are hoping that we can provide thru.traffic,
6, Monday, August 23 - school starts,
7. Monday, August 30 - public school starts,
8, Saturday, September 4 - first home football game,
Other initiatives that have been undertaken in the last few days included hiring a safety
consultant. We had this individual walk through our safety procedures and do risk assessment
for us at our water treatment plant and wastewater treatment plant. We were provided some
additional information, but all in all, we were very satisfied with our review and the actions
had been taken to date.
Hopefully, later today we will also be able to stop the wastewater bypass caused by the
Benton Street sewer collapse. This is still somewhat speculative, but our goal is to have that
circumstance under control.
Over the weakend of July 24-25, sandbag levees were built along South Gilbert, We provided
the sand and sandbags. An assessment of these levees was undertaken late Monday evening,
There is still substantial seepage and, therefore, the pumping that we will be doing on behalf
of the property owners may not be to any significant advantage. We are working with them
to determine whather we can, In fact, reduce the water level through pumping or must wa
wait for a decline in the river level before any work can be successful,

Internal Memo

Cd"'l f \;LvLC{.
July 26, 1993
~~~
TO:
Department/Division Heads
FROM:
Machele Wiebel, Personnel
RE:
Employee Assistance Program
Recognizing that the flood has created stressful and anxious conditions for many of our
employees, (not only at work but also in personailives) I am sending this memo as a
reminder of the Employee Assistance Program,
The EAP provides confidential, professional assistance to help employees and their
families resolve problems that affect personal lives or job performance,
As a supervisor/manager, you should consider suggesting the use of the EAP if you
become aware of a change in an employee's personality, attitude or overall health, An
appointment may be scheduled by calling MECCA at 351-9072.
Many times, situations of prolonged stress may begin to affect the morale of all
employees and the overall effectiveness of the organization, The EAP is also available
to conduct on-site group consultations. Please contact Personnel if you are interested in
providing something for your employees.
Please post the attached posters for employees to refer to,
Thank you.

City of Iowa City
MEMORANDUM
Date: July 28, 1993
To: City Council
From: City Manager
Re: Flood Update
At our Wednesday morning meeting, we were again advised by the Corps of Enginaers that
the reservoir level was continuing to drop and is now at 714,9. Last night's rain did slow
down the pool level decline and the inflow into the reservoir increased slightly. Outflow
remains at 24,500 cfs, The National Weather Service forecast was clear for several days.
,
Generally speaking, the schedule I provided you in the previous memorandum will continue,
We have also experienced our first efforts at clean up, The South Gilbert Street area has
cleared substantially and our pumping efforts appear to have worked. We have done some
initial efforts in clean up, specifically from the public right-of-way, This involves removal of
a several.inch-thick muck/mess, We then flush the street area and perform street sweeping,
We will attempt to work with the property owners in order to assist them, Our general policy
will be that we will do our best to avoid going onto private property wherever practical, I
have discussed this matter with the City Attorney's Office and we will do our best to not only
provide for a thorough and responsible clean up, but protect the City from future liabilities,
Many of the private parking areas are asphalt that may have been undermined by the water
and thereby any of our heavy equipment could severely damage the paved area, Many of
these decisions will need to be made in the field by our personnel to determine whether
equipment can be used, Generally speaking, we are going to do our best to encourage
property owners to get the mess to the curb and we will assume responsibility for removal.
I have asked the Streets supervisors to use their own judgment, but wherever practical secure
some type of hold harmless understanding similar to the enclosed letter from Winebrenner
Ford,

Our water treatment end supply system remains safe, The Benton Street collapse has been
temporarily repaired and we have ended the sanitary sewer bypass to the river. Another
collapse did occur on Hickory Court off of Sandusky end our crews have responded and we
will be working with those residents,
Staff attended a FEMA meeting during the morning of Wednesday, July 28. This is an effort
to secure whatever information possible for submittal of our damage claims,
We have learned from the Iowa Department of Transportation that they will naed estimates
by Friday of our street damage, We have most of this information but there is an unusual
wrinkle in that the federal aid routes, such as Dubuque Street, Rocky Shore, Benton Street,
Iowa Avenue, etc., are not eligible for FEMA funding. We must attempt to secure monies on
these federal aid routes through the Federal Highway Administration; however, we must
contact the Iowa Department of Transportation first. As you can see, this is going to be far
more complex,

Dear Mr. Atkins:
We wish to express our gratitude to'the City of Iowa City and your
employees for the assistance in receiving sand and sand bags over
the past three weeks. With the use of the sand bags, we were able
to build a dike to gain entry to our service bays and resume parts
and service operations, thus limiting the days we were totally
closed to four out of the last fifteen. Unfortunately, after a
valiant effort for many days to keep the water out of the
bUilding; the heavy rains received early Saturday morning caused
flooding in the both buildings except the showroom of at least
four inches.
We appreciate the efforts in the last few days to build a dike
close to the river and to pump out the water surrounding our lot.
It was great to come to work today and actually see the cement of
Stevens Drive. It appears that now, for us, the crisis is over
and all that is left to do is the clean up.
Please be advised that Winebrenner Ford, Inc. agrees to
acknowledge harmless intent end to release the City of Iowa City
of any responsibility for damage that could occur in their efforta
to assist us in the clean up necessitated,by'the flooding.
Again, THANK YOU for all the help.
.
Sincerely,
~~

CITY OF IOWA CITY
July 27, 1993
Dear Flood victim Assistance provider:
Indications by the Army Corp of Engineers suggest that a
significant amount of the flood waters will have receded from the
Johnson County area by August 9, 1993. Once this happens, many
resident, businesses and other property owners will be able to
enter their properties and assess damages. The city of Iowa city
recognizes that there will be a need for information regarding
flood cleanup.
In order provide information about various services that are
available and how particular city (and other) services are going to
help meet this need, the city of Iowa city is developing a "Flood
Cleanup Resource WorkshOp". Flood victims can receive all of this
information in one location in as simple and efficient manner as
possible.
The city has a number of concerns that will need to be addressed at
this workshop (sand bag removal, special garbage removal programs,
process and time schedule for street cleaning, etc.) but also feels
it would be the ideal opportunity for other agencies to provide
information about their services.
There are two workshops scheduled:
TUESD~Y, ~UGUST 3 - 7:00 PM - LINCOLN SCHOOL GYMN~SIUM
300 TEETERS CT.
WEDNESD~Y, ~UGUST 4 - 7:00 PM - TRANSIT BARN
1200 S. RIVERSIDE DR.
The schedule for the workshop will include presentations by various
city staff about flood cleanup programs and discussions by Red
Cross, salvation Army and Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) representatives about programs that they coordinate. The
balance of the meeting format would involve questions from those
attending. Your input would be very helpful at that time.

The participation of your agency in this workshop by having a
representative attend and providing written information is very
important. Tables (approximate area of 4' by 4') and chairs will
be set up in the meeting room for agencies to display their
information.
If you feel your agency would like to participate, please contact
Lisa Sevenich in the Iowa city Public Works Department at 356-5140
by Monday, August 2 so we can get an indication on how many tables
to set up. Enclosed is a flyer that can be used to promote the
Workshop within your organization.
Your participation in this program would be appreciated and very
helpful for those who attend. Please feel frp.e to contact me if
you should need any additional information.

Re: Flood Update
There are no new significent issues aS$ociated with the Corps of Engineers and their
rpanagement of the rivar and outflow from the Reservoir. We have continued to meet with
them by way of conference call every morning and now anticipate going to every Qther
morning beginning the weak of August 2.
Our energies are now turned toward trying to secure federal disaster aid for our disaster
response and recovary work effort. As the federal policy now stands it is a 75/25 grant
program. While the state hes asked for a waiver of the 25% match, which we believe will
not happen, we are planning on what our financial responsibilities will be. I do not expect
much assistance from the state, and therefore the full match requirement may fall to the City.
In,our review of the items thet are eligible for disaster aid, there are many that are of some
concern to us. SpeCifically, traes are not eligible for any disaster assistance. The Parks and
Recreation Departmant Is most concerned about whether the trees at City Park will survive.
We will need to begin thinking about alternate plans if a significant tree removal and replanting
program Is to be initiated et City expense.
Thare wes a minor setback In thet the water line at Benton Street broke and is now In the
process of being repaired. The street collapse at Hickory Court has been repaired and
restoration will begin whanaver practical,

Re: Flood Update
On Friday morning, we again continued our daily assessment of flood damaga and our
response/recovery efforts. The Corps of Engineers has advised us that tha reservoir level is
now 713.3 and the inflow into the reservoir is 13,800 cfs and dropping. You will recall we
mentioned that at 712 the spillway will no longer be taking water. The oUtflow is 23,500 cfs
and dropping with the conduit wide open. We should notice river levals in Iowa City
beginning to drop later today.

from tha Dubuque Street area and to use the 246 exit will be posted along the highway.
Further .Road Closed Ahead. signs will also ba postad so, at the very least, anyone exiting
on Dubuque Street will be notified immediately by signing and can return to I.SO without
wandering through the flooded area. This is an issue that we can address; however, the
Department of Transportation has the responsibility and authority to proceed with any type
of signing changes.
I mentioned in the previous mamorandum of a water break at Senton Street. We have chosen
to valve off the water and divert water flow to other pipes; therefore, no one in the area
should be without fresh weter. The water line is et a location that cannot be Immediately
accessed without some danger to our employees and therefore we are going to wait for the
river level to drop before attempting further repairs.
The wastewater treatment plant continues to function satisfactorily and with the water levels
dropping, we should ba able to have direct access to the plant by Monday or Tuesday. As
a note of thanks, the Aero Rental Company allowed us to park most of our equipment on their
site. We will thank them more formally later on.
The most significant work effort will now be our attempt to secure funding from FEMA end
the FHWA. We have prepared a site map Indicating the 34 sites ~hroughout the city that have
experienced some sort of flooding, sewer backup, or any other problems directly associated
with the flood conditions. It Is located in our Public Works Conference Room; I plan to bring
it with me on Monday evenIng to give you a better feel for the exten! of flood damage
throughout the community.
We have received calls from citizens requesting what they need to do to file claims for what
they may believe to be City responsibility for damages to their property. We edvise them that
they may fila a claim with the City. At the same time we distribute to them a FEMA claim
form. It Is our Intent to Investigate each and every claim filed as well as cross.check any
claIms against FEMA In order to assure that we do not pay twice, This claim process will be
complex and we ere receiving raquests for claim forms based upon what we clearly know to

process of review of our estimates.
It is our intention that we do not plan to remova any substantial number of sandbags in and

We are attempting to put the final details together of our seven year capital Improvement program
and the financing to support that plan. Inevllably during the course of any such planning process
other Issues arise, as we now are experiencing the need for funding for flood recovery. As I
prepare my financial recommendations for you, we will attempt to keep In mind all reasonable
contingencies. If we were not to receive federal emergency management assistance, we could
bear a significant capital as well as operating financial burden. The plan will Identify capital
resources but we also must keep In mind that we may need to move with securing capital
financing for fiood restoration.
I will keep you advised, but I wanted to alert you to the potential for some future financial

To: Stephen Atkins, City Manager
From: Don Yucuis, Finance Director {)V
Joe Fowler, Parking Systems suterintendent~
Dianna Donahue, Customer Service Manager/lMx.Jui
Reference: Fee Increases. Unpaid Parking Tickets
We've been exploring the possibility of increasing parking ticket fees on outstanding tickets.
This was dalayed as any changes in our procedures needad to coincide with the reorder of
billing forms and parking tickets. We currently need to order both of these forms and feel the
issue should be addressed at this time.
At the present time there is no incentive to pay a City of Iowa City parking ticket until the
total tickets issued to a vehicle accumulate to $15.00. Once $15 or more in tickets has been
accumulated, they get onto our impound/towlist. In addition, any ticket that is uncollected
for twelve months is dropped from the system. This system ellows users of the parking
system to maintein a balance of less than $15.00 and wait for the time limit to eliminate the'
remainder of their tickets through attrition.
As en exemple, you received five $3.00 parking tickets in July and August of 1992, total due
is $15.00. Depending on the time frame of the tickets you would receive up to 5 billings.
You pay one ticket, total outstanding Is $12.00. The four other tickets received in August
1992 are erased from the system. Balance due, $0.00. City does not collect for the tickets
but incurs the expens~ of billings.
At the present time there is an average of 1880 notices of unpaid parking tickets mailed each
. Yi.Ws. If we consider the cost of postage, billing form and envelope, computer time, and
personnel it is not a profitable activity.
We believe that by establishing a tiered fae schedule offenders will be encouraged to pay their
tickets before the fine escalates, This would save the City the cost involved with the expense
of mailing notices. At the present time only 6% to 7% of the tickets are paid before billing,
Any Increase in this percentege results in cost savings to the City.
Section 321.236 of the State Code of Iowa sets the fee limits for parking tickets. It also
allows for the fee to be increesed to $10.00 if not paid within thirty days of occurrence.
After reviewing the code and conferring with the cities of Cedar Replds and Dubuque we
recommend the following chenges In the City of lowe City's fee schedule:

Parking tickets fees remain the seme for 8 calendar days after the date of issue. This allows
the person ample time to pay the ticket, put it on review. or report any malfunction with the
meter.
At the end of 8 calendar days $3.00 expired meter and overtime ticket fees Increase to
$5.00. Other violation fees remain the same.
Thirty calendar days after the original entry date all $3.00 and $5.00 tickets increase to
$10.00.
If these fees are increased we should also increase the minimum amount to place a vehicle
on the impound list. At the present time the limit is $15.00. If the new fees are approved
tha minimum should be increased to $50.00.

City of Iowa City
MEMORANDUM
Date: July 27, 1993
To: Honorable Mayor Darrel G. Courtney and Members of the Cit Council
From: Linda Newman Gentry. City Attorney
Re: Update on Reseerch for Deniel of Alcoholic Beverage Permits and Licenses;
Legal Opinion Request
This is to updat~ you on two additional questions raised, in part. by my earlier memo of July
16,1993, together with discussions atthe City Council meeting of July 20. 1993. concerning
denial of a 'renewal parmit.'
1. Local authority limited to control serving to 19 and 20 year olds.
You have asked whether the City Council can enact local ordinances, so that the City
could impose more stringent penalties on rastaurants and bars who serve beer, wine and
alcohol to 19 years olds and to 20 year olds. Unfortunately. the answer is 'no."
As you can see from the elaborate scheme which the Iowa legislature has set up for
penalizing license holders who serve to 19 year olds and to 20 year olds. there is little
room laft for local municipalitias to impose graatar penalties than thosa which are set out
in state law, see my earlier mamo dated July 16. 1993. and the attach ad explanations.
Thus. as a practical matter, our local ordinances merely 'track" state law. This is
bacausa. applying a homa rule analysis. tha state legislative schema is so pervasive that
it Is what we. in the law. describe as 'filling the field." This means that the City is
preempted by this elaborate state schame from imposing more string ant penalties, since
the City cannot proscriba or ban behavior which the state law would permit. However,
, as I stated in my earlier memo. the City Council probably has the authority to keep
undarage drinkers out of restaurants and bars, if that ordinance is based on a legitimate
safety, haalth. and welfare concern.
2. Grounds for denial of a renewal application for license/permit.
Attachad please find a thorough memo to ma from Anne Burnside. First Assistant City
Attornay, which I forward to you as my opinion. I concur with Anne's conclusions, and
point out a number of things to you, prior to your proceeding to take action:
a. First, you as the City Council have considerable authority to closely reviaw all liquor
Iicanses and beer permits. if you so choose - realizing, of course, that the state has
reviawauthority. However. if you choose to usa this authority set out in state law,
you must do it fairly and even.handedly across-the-board. This means. for example.
that you cannot selactively elect to prosecute ona bar or restaurant. without
reasonable grounds to differentiate between that bar and others.

b. Secondly, you must discipline yourselves not to jump to unfounded conclusions,
based solely on rumor or hearsay. Rather, your dacisions should be based on facts,
and made after a close review of records and after closa scrutiny.
c. Third, even if the state liquor control reverses the City Council's decision to deny or
revoke, the City can still appeal that decision to district court here in Johnson County.
At that point, whatever political .pulls and tugs. you might feel would be minimized,
and the legal process would continue to .work itself out. in front of the judge.
In sum, you have considerable authority to act upon liquor and baer licenses and permits at
both the renewal stage, as well as the original approval stage, with the applicant still having
an appeal process to the state. Nonetheless, the City still has appeal rights to the district
court, if the City so chooses.
In a word, it is all a matter of the level of energy and time which the City wishes to bring to
bear on the issues before you, and how much energy and time you wish the various City
offices and departments to focus on in pursuing the issues of license and permit holders in
this city. It also depends on how patient you want to be to let the elaborate legal scheme
.work itself out. even to the district court level.
I trust this will be of some assistance to you, and Anne Burnside will be available to answer
questions the week of August 2, 1993.

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 24, 1993
To: Unda Newman Gentry, City Attorney
From: Anne G. Burnside, First Assistant City Attorney 1fj6
Re: Legal Opinion Request: Grounds for Denial of Alcoholic Beverage
Permit/Ucense: Renewal Circumstances
ISSUES: (1) Under what circumstances and upon what grounds may the city council
deny an application to renew a license or permit Issued for the sale of alcoholic beverages?
(2) Upon what grounds may the city council deny the Fieldhouse's application
to renew their Chapter 123 license/permit?
CONCLUSION: (1) The city council should use the same criteria to review an
application for renewal of a permit/license that It uses to consider an Initial application. The
Council's action Is subject to review for being arbitrary, capricious or without reasonable
cause, An applicant must meet the statutory definition of "good moral characle~'.
(2) The Fieldhouse or Its owner was convicted in District Court for
violation of ~123.49(2)(b), selling or dispensing after hours, and the license/permit Is presently
subject to suspension/revocation proceedings before the alcoholic beverage control division
of the State. The city council may deny the application for renewal for the underlying Chapter
123 offense. However, If the City Council has not treated other establishments similarly, or if
the administrative hearing process ultimately exonerates the Fieldhouse and Imposes no
suspension or revocation, the action of the City Council to deny renewal may be open to a
finding that the decision was arbitrary, capricious or without reasonable cause.
DISCUSSION: I examined the statutes, cases and Attorney General opinions relevant
to the questions, There are very few cases which shed light on the construction or
application of Chapter 123. All authorities which bear upon the question are summarized
below. All statutory citations are to the Code of Iowa (1993).
~123, 1 Public policy declared. The chapter shall be deemed an exercise of
the police power of the state, for the protection of the people of the state, and all provisions
shall be liberally construed to accomplish that purpose. Traffic In alcoholic liquors shall be so
regulated as to prohibit all traffic except as provided In Chapter 123.
~123.3(26) Deflnftlons. 'Person of good moral character' A person of such
financial standing and good reputation as will satisfy the license/permit granting officer that
the person will comply with all laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to Chapter 123; a
person who Is not subject to the license/permit revocation penalties of ~123.40; a person who
has not been convicted of a felony within the past five years, or who has had their rights of
citizenship restored by the governor aileI' such conviction.

administrator of the alcoholic beverage control division of the Department of Commerce, The
applicant must state whether the owners of the business have ever been convicted of any
offense, Including violations of Chapter 123.
~123.32 Action by local authorities and division on applications for
IIcenses/parmUs. The application described at ~123.31 shall be filed with the city council for
premises within the corporate limits of a city. The city council ("local authorities") shall
approve or disapprove Issuance of the license/permit and shall endorse Its decision on the
application, and forward the application to the division, II the city council denies the Initial
application for a license/permit, the finding shall not be held to be arbitrary, capricious or
without reasonable cause, II the city council disapproves an application, the administrator
shall disapprove the application, with notice to the applicant, II the city council approves the
application, the administrator shall conduct an Investigation, as the administrator deems
necessary. Any applicant for a license/permit may appeal the administrator's disapproval of
an application. The appeal Is to the division hearing board. II the hearing board determines'
the city council acted arbitrarily, capriciously or without reasonable cause In disapproving the
application, or that the administrator's disapproval should be reversed, the board shall order
Issuance of the license/permit. this Is the same right of appeal available to a
licensee/permittee whose license/permit has been suspended or revoked, Judicial review of
the board's decision Is available according to Chapter 17A. The city council may appeal a
finding by the board that the city acted arbitrarily, capriciously or without reasonable cause.
~123.35 Simplified renewal procedure. When a licensee/permittee seeks renewal, a
"short form" may be used provided the qualifications for Issuance of a license/permit have not
changed since the original document was Issued, The applicant for renewal must verify
under oath that the Information contained In the original application remains current and no
reason exists for the division to refuse to renew the license or permit as originally Issued,
The application for renewal Is filed In the same manner as an Initial application Is filed.
~123.39 Suspension or revocation of license or permit. Ucenses and permits
may be suspended or revoked upon any of these grounds: Misrepresentation of any material
fact In the application; violation of any of the provisions of this chapter; any event which
would have resulted In disqualification from receiving the license or permit originally Issued.
(ThIs list must be considered modified by the limits on suspension/revocation created by
operation of ~~123,39(4) and 123.47A, as fully described In Kim's memorandum to you.)
~1 85'4.26(123), Iowa Administrative Ccide. TImely filing of renewal applications, An
application for renewal which Is flied with the city at least fifteen (15) days before the
license/permit expires Is timely filed, and the license/permit will not expire until tha renewal
application Is finally determined,
~17A.18(3) Ucenses. lithe renewal application Is denied, the license/permit does not
expire until the last day for seeking judicial review of the denial, or such later date as the
reviewing agency or court may set.
Based upon these code sections, I conclude the city council should process Initial
applications and renewal applications In the same manner and by the same standards, The
city council Is acting In the police power of their office, and the standard for review Is whether
their actions are arbitrary, capricious or without reasonable cause, In the case of a denial of
an Initial license/permit application, there Is a statutory presumption that the denial did not

violate this standard, There is no such presumption for denial of a renewal.
The city council should deny the Initial or renewal application of any person who does not
meet the definition, above, of "good moral characte(', The city council should carefully
consider whether to Issue an Initial or renewal license/permit to a person who does not
clearly satisfy the requirements of ~~123,31 and 123,35, II the city council can articulate a
rational, nondiscriminatory reason to deny the application, the council may do so, AgaIn,
the legislative exclusions ~123,39(4) and ~123.47A apply (no suspension or revocation for
sale to 19-20 year aids). It Is not reasonable to deny renewal on grounds which will not
support suspension.
I found three cases which deal with the grounds and procedures for denying a license/permit.
One, Smith v.lowa L1auor Control Commission, 169 N,W,2d 803 (Iowa 1969), Is an "old law"
case decided prior to the substantial code revisions of Chapter 123 In 1972. The court does
make clear that a conviction, rather than a charge, of violating Chapter 123 or a comparable
local ordinance Is required to trigger the revocation and suspension provisions, I think It
must alao be clear that a conviction would be required to deny an Initial or renewal
,application.
Randall's International, Inc, v. Hearlna Board of Iowa, 429 N.W,2d 163 (Iowa 1988) considered
whether the vicarious liability aspect of Chapter 123, by which the conviction of a
licensee/permittee's employee Is Imputed to the licensee/permittee, and supports the
suspension or revocation of privileges. The Court upheld the provisions of ~ 123.39
(suspension and revocation; penalties) and of ~123.50(3) (vicarious liability for employees). In
Dell 011, Ltd" v. Beer and L1auor Control Deot., 406 N.W.2d 462 (la, App. 1987), the Court of
Appeals affirmed a department suspension of a license where there was only one alleged
violation of ~123.49(2)(b), selling or dispensing after hours. While the court was divided In Its
decision, no Justice argued that a suspension for only one violation was unreasonable.
An Attorney General opinion from January 21, 1976 considered the same question you
posed, and concluded that the city council can approve or disapprove the Issuance of an
Initial application or an application for renewal of a license or permit. The opinion points out
that the applicant must meet the definition of "good moral characte(', and the city cannot act
arbitrarily or capriciously or without reasonable cause. There have been no statutory
changes or cases which would change the validity of this opinion, except the restrictions of
~~123,39 and 123.47A.
Regarding the Fieldhouse application for renewal, I understand that the business has been
convicted of one or more violations of ~123.49(2)(b). The city council could suspend a
license/permit for this conviction, subject to administrative review. Dell 011, at 463-464. The
applicant for renewal must be of "good moral character', and one test Is whether the person
will comply with all laws, ordinances and regulations applicable to Chapter 123, It Is quite
possible that a decision to deny renewal because of the ~123.49(2)(b) conviction Is lawful,
Other factors should be considered, however. The existing license Is presently subject to
administrative suspension/revocation proceedings at the state level. II those proceedings
terminate In a finding that no suspension or revocation Is warranted, the city decision to deny
renewal-an act tantamount to revocation-will certainly appear excessive and unreasonable.
Further, II the city Is not treating all establishments with a similar degree of harshness, the
action to deny the application will certainly appear arbitrary.

Re: ,I

At your August 19, 1993, work session, the Council discussed the Urban Planning DIvision's FY94
work program with Planning Department Director Karin Franklin. There was an Interest expressed
by some Council members to add development of an ordinance to protect ravines arid non.
Jurisdictional wetlands to the list of activities the Division Is to complete by June 30, 1994. That
ordinance has been added to the list as Item 1#10. As noted, other Items on the FY94 work
program have been stricken to accommodate the completion of Item #10 In FY94. The stricken
Items will be shifted to the Division's FY95 work program. Item #1.C has also been revised to
reflect Council comments regarding the application of PDH zoning to specific properties at the

City of Iowa City
MEMORANDUM
Date:
August 2, 1993
To: City Council
From: City Manager
Re: Flood Update
At our Monday conference call with the Corps of Engineers, we were advised that the Inflow Into
the Reservoir Is now at 13,000 and the outflow is at 19,500 with the conduit wide open.
Saturday's rainfall, which was measured at 2' to 4' In places throughout the City, has slowed
some of the progress, The conduit Is to remain wide open until the Reservoir pool level Is below
707, which Is projected to occur on or about August 9. While the rain was a temporary setback,
we sUII remain close to the earlier schedule we provided. As the flows drop, the water recedes.
The resulting rain did cause localized flooding throughout the City, and we experienced noodlng
In areas tha,t had not normally retained water. As far away as Melrose near Westwlnds we were
experiencing flooded streets.
The Isolated noodlng also attributed to sewer surcharging In the Riverside Drive area as well as
along Kirkwood. We do not know whether this was directly attributed to the rain and saturated
groun~ or the older sewer In the area. This Is being Investigated.
Following the Saturday rain, Baculls Trailer Park also appeared to be taking more water. It
appears that some of the trailers were sinking Into the soli. The Baculls.Thatcher mobile home
parks have presented a unique problem for us. The two trailer parks are pumping water; we want
to be sure It Is away from each other. We will provide pumping support wherever practical.
A lightning strike at a water pump station 'fried' some of the electrical work and repairs were
underlaken Immediately.

During the course of the weekend one of the chlorine lines serving the water treatment plant
broke. This line Is underground and under water and, therefore, not pracllcal to repair at this
time. An alternate line above ground has been constructed. We are also planning the
construction of some type of pedestrian corridor In and around the waler treatment plant; as the
number of students and other University acllvltles begin to Increase, we expect pedestrian traffic
to likewise Increase.
The pumping In the S. Gilbert area conllnued; however, with the heavy rain the pumps were not
able to keep up. Water actually did begin to fill the streets late Saturday night and It was
necessary to call In our reserve fire pumper. It spent the evening serving as a backup to the
large pump we currently have In place. Evldenlly It was successful, and the water was removed
before It went over the sidewalk. We stili encourage people not to remove the sandbags until the
river Is substanllally back to Its normal course. We are receiving requests for the removal of
.
sandbags and we are discouraging the removal until such time that we have greater confidence
In the volumes of water coming out of the Reservoir.
One of the Issues that we will need to prepare our citizens for Is what Is left behind. While we
have a number of programs that will address the needs of our flood victims, In my conversallons
with other communities It Is clear that the community will not be prepared for what Is left behind.
The smell, the muck and mire, and the slalns are almost as bad as the flood waters. We will do
our best to prepare folks for the outcome. Our cleanup schedule remains on course. More
Informallon will be available Wednesday to see the Impact of'Saturday's rain on Reservoir levels.
As we work through the flood recovery and response, we are learning many new Issues that will
need our atlenllon In the future. Our Public Works crews and engineers may design some type
of a bolt down manhole to help protect the surcharging of stormwater.
We have requested new signing at the Dubuque/loaD Interchange and IDOT has agreed to allow
some sign changes In order to direct trafflc away from Dubuque Street.

We heve been advised by tha Corps of Engineers that the Reservoir level has now dropped
to 710.5. However, the flow into the Reservoir is 11,500 and increasing. Evidently the rains
from last Seturday are now finding their way into tha Reservoir. The outflow remains at
approximately 19,200 and is slowly decreasing. .

Again, assuming no rain, this schadula is somewhat less optimistic than our earliar schedula
but does appaar to continue to show the pattarn of improvament. Somatime alter August 9,
we should bagln to notice a decline in the river level of ebout 6" per day. By August 15, the
river lavel should be 3.3 fa at lower than it is now. Hopefully, this will again allow us to
reopen two lanes of Dubuque Street near Mayflowar,
The University is heving some difficulty in moving students' 'stuff" out of the Mayflower In
that the National Guard trucks, which we had used to move materials into and out of
Normandy, are no longer available, The unit has been deactivated. We are trying to help

them out, but we do not have the large aquipment and therefore will be providing them with
what contacts we can,
As I mentioned et the City Council meeting, our policy as to reopening streets will be very
cautious to avoid the circumstances we experienced near the Animal Shelter,
We would hope that by August 10, Rocky Shore would reopen and we will then have to
notify the neighborhood of restricted parking on Park Road. We believe if the water continuas
to declina and we have noticed some movement of parking off of Park Road and back into the
Normandy area, we will be able to accommodate the circumstances,
A particular problem has arisen at the water treatmant plant, that being security, We hava
done our best to keep folks out of tha area and we will be stressing publicly to stay away
from the water treatment plant area. We have found folks within the snow fencing that
surrounds the water treatment plant as well as actually in the plant. We will not ba stressing
it publicly, but the chlorine line is something of concern and, therefore, we will do our best
to discourage people from going to the water treatment plant area.
Our sewer/wastewater treatment plant is beginning to return to some degree of normalcy and
we are assessing the damage to the equipment. We are continuing to process at about 20
million gallons; however, no bypass is occurring,
The August 3 meeting at Lincoln School appears to have been very well attended, and we
received many questions.and concerns from residents, The overwhelming majority of the
audience appears to have been Normandy residents, The staff estimated that following a
show of hands approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of the people are still out of their homes, Marcia
was able to arrange many of the social service agencies' attendance, such as Red Cross, Legal
Services, Salvation Army, Department of Health, Iowa-Illinois Gas & Electric, etc,
At 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, John Sobaski, our Assistant Street Superintendent, Floyde
Pelkey, our Solid Waste Superintendent, end Marcia Klingaman will have appaared on a radio
program to discuss Issues of cleanup.
