Transfer of Jurisdiction of Governor Street
The transfer of jurisdiction of northbound Highway 1 consists of Burlington Street
from Dodge Street to Governor Street and Governor Street from Burlington
Street to Dodge Street. This is approximately 1.3 miles of roadway. The transfer
of jurisdiction is from the City of Iowa City to the Iowa Department of
Transportation. When the one way couplet was established for Highway 1, the
jurisdiction of the roadway was not transferred to the Iowa Department of
Transportation. It is not known why the transfer did not occur.
This transfer is a positive move for the City and the Iowa Department of
Transportation. It will result in a cost saving to the City, because the Iowa DOT
will pay the City to plow snow. They will be responsible for the pavement
maintenance, including the pavement markings and signage. In addition with
the transfer, the Iowa DOT will be responsible for any future reconstruction of the
roadway. The reconstruction of the roadway would be approximately $5 million.
The biggest value to the Iowa DOT is they will be able to manage the roadway,
which is identified as a state highway. This includes reviewing utility permits and
access permits.

the examination and copying of requested records when the supervision time required is
in excess of fifteen (15) minutes. Supervision of more than fifteen (15) minutes will be
assessed in quarter-hour intervals at the rate of $5.00 per quarter-hour.
Advance Deposits. When the estimated total fee chargeable under this policy exceeds
$25, the Custodian may require the requestor to make an advance payment to cover all
or a part of the estimated fee. When a requestor has previously failed to pay a fee
chargeable under this policy, the Custodian may require advance payment of the full
amount of any estimated fee before the Custodian processes a new request from that
2
requestor. Each department is responsible for collecting any applicable fee and
providing an appropriate receipt.
Overtime. If the services requested cannot be completed during regular office hours,
a person may request that work be completed after hours. The charge will be the actual
overtime paid to the person providing the assistance. The decision to authorize overtime
shall be made by the Department Director or Supervisor, and there is no guarantee that
the records will be provided in the time requested.
Certified CODies. Certified copies of public documents in the City Clerk's office may be
made only at the time the photocopy is made by the City Clerk.
Electronic Data. The City is not required under Chapter 22 to provide the public with
access to City software, but must allow access to records that are combined with its data
processing software. If it is necessary to separate the record from the software to
provide access, the City shall bear the cost of the separation. After the record has been
separated, any additional fees (e.g., photocopying) shall be as provided in Paragraph 7
below. If the person requests that the record be specially processed, the fee for doing
so shall be assessed in quarter-hour intervals at the rate of $11.00 per quarter-hour.
9. Confidential Records.
a. Basis. The Custodian may treat a record as a confidential record and withhold it
from examination only to the extent that the Custodian is authorized by Iowa
Code section 22.7 (2005), as amended, another applicable provision of law, or
court order to refuse to disclose that record to members of the public.
b. Access to Confidential Records. Under Iowa Code section 22.7 (2005), as
amended, or other applicable provision of law, the Custodian may disclose
certain confidential records to one or more members of the public. In requesting
the Custodian to permit the examination" and copying of such a confidential
record, the following procedures apply and are in addition to those specified for
request for access to records provided above.
(1) Proof of identity. The Custodian may require the person requesting the
confidential record to provide proof of identity or authority to secure
access to the record.
(2) Requests. The Custodian may require a request to examine and copy a
confidential record to be in writing. A person requesting access to such a
record may be required to sign a certified statement or affidavit
enumerating the specific reasons justifying access to the confidential
record and to provide any proof deemed necessary by the Custodian to
establish relevant facts.
c. Request denied. When the Custodian denies a request for access to a
confidential record, the Custodian shall promptly notify the requestor. If the
requestor indicates to the Custodian that a written notification of the denial is
desired, the Custodian shall promptly provide such a notification that is signed by
the Custodian and that includes:
3
(1) The name and title or position of the Custodian responsible for the denial;
and
(2) A citation to the provision of the law vesting authority in the Custodian to
deny disclosure of the record and a brief statement of the reason for the
denial to the requestor.
d. Reauest aranted. When the Custodian grants a request for access to a
confidential record to a particular person, the Custodian shall state any lawful
restrictions imposed by the Custodian on that person's examination and copying
of the record.
e. Reauest that record be treated as confidential record. A request that a record be
treated as a confidential record and withheld from public inspection shall be in
writing if the Custodian so requests. The request shall set forth the legal and
factual basis justifying the request and the name, address, and telephone
number of a person authorized to respond to any inquiry or action of the
Custodian concerning the request. Failure to make such a request does not
preclude the Custodian from treating it as a confidential record. If the request is
denied, the Custodian shall notify the requestor of the determination and the
reasons therefore. On application by the requestor, the Custodian may engage
in a good faith, reasonable delay in allowing examination of the record so that the
requestor may seek injunctive relief under Iowa Code section 22.8 (2005), as
amended,. or other applicable law. The Custodian shall notify requestor in writing
of the time period allowed to seek injunctive relief.
f. Third Partv. A person who is the subject of a confidential record may request
that the record be disclosed to a third party. Said request must be in writing and
must identity the particular record or records that may be disclosed, and the
particular person or class of persons to whom the record may be disclosed.
Such request does not require the disclosure of the record by the Custodian.
Appearance of counsel on behalf of a person who is the subject of a confidential
record is deemed to constitute consent for the City to disclose records about that
person to the person's attorney.
10. Redaction of a Record. The Custodian may redact from a record any information that is
confidential under state or federal law, such as a Social Security Number.
11. Creation of a Record. If the Custodian determines that it may be more feasible,
economical, or otherwise reasonable that a response to a request may be better met by
the creation of a record, such as a report or a document that does not presently exist,
and that would be produced as a result of research or analysis, the Custodian may, but
will not be required, to notify the requestor of that determination. The Custodian may
advise the requestor of the actual cost of creating and providing such document that
does not currently exist. The Custodian and the requester may in such instance, but will
not be required to, agree to approve such document in exchange for the actual cost in
lieu of providing access to the records originally requested. In absence of such
agreement, records will be made available as provided in this policy.
