IOWA, ENTITLED "PLANNED DEVELOPMENT HOUSING OVER- LAY ZONE IOPDH)" TO REQUIRE DEDICATION OF LAND OR PAYMENT OF FEES IN LIEU OF LAND FOR NEIGHBORHOOD OPEN SPACE. WHEREAS, neighborhood open space is considered a vital part of Iowa City's communi- ty and often serves as a focal point of neigh- borhood activity; and WHEREAS, attractive open space enhances and preserves private property values, and also serves the immediate and future needs of area residents in the same way as other capital improvements such as streets, water mains and sanitary and storm sewers serve residents of a neighborhood; and WHEREAS, active, usable neighborhood open space includes pedestrian/bicycle trails prefera- bly located within natural greenway systems, and also includes neighborhood parks that serve nearby residents; and WHEREAS, it is the intent of the City of Iowa City, Iowa, to ensure that adequate usable neighborhood open space, parks and recreation facilities are provided in a manner consistent with the Neighborhood Open Space Plan adopt- ed as part of the City's Comprehensive Plan on July 20, 1993, and that the method of assuring such open space is an equitable, predictable and reasonably calculable way to acquire needed open space as development occurs in the City. WHEREAS, the City of Iowa City, Iowa has determined that new development creates an impact and burden on existing neighborhood open space, as well as a need for additional neighborhood open space; and WHEREAS, the provision of neighborhood open space through dedication and/or the payment of fees to be used for land acquisition In lieu of dedication Is a reasonable and obJec- tive method for addressing and alleviating such impact, and also promoting and protecting the public health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Iowa City.

Ordinance No. 94-3648 Page 2 6J.2E, "Dedication of Neighborhood Open Space or Payment of Fees in Lieu of land for Neighborhood Open Space," to read as follows: 1. Puroose This section is adopted to ensure that adequate usable neighborhood open space, parks and recreation facilities are provided as development occurs within Iowa City, and to do so in a manner which is consistent with the Neighborhood Open Space Plan adopted by the City July 1993 by using a fair and reasonably calculated method to equitably apportion the costs of acquiring and/or developing land for those purposes. Active, usable neighborhood open space includes pedestrian/bicycle trails preferably located within natural greenway systems, and also includes neighborhood parks that serve nearby residents. Portions of community parks may be adapted for neighborhood use, but this ordinance is not intended to fund the acquisition of commu. nity parks or large playing fields for orga. nized sports. While this section is primarily intended to provide usable neighborhood open spaces, it is also intended to encour- age, wherever reasonably feasible, the dedication of sensitive areas in conjunction with the usable open space. 2. Dedication of land or Pavment of Fees in Lieu of land Required As a condition of approval for planned development housing, each developer shall dedicate land, pay a fee in lieu of land, or, a combination there- of, for park, greenway, recreational and open space purposes as determined by the City and in accordance with the provisions of this section, all as a reasonable method calculated to accomplish the City's goal of requiring development occuring in Iowa City which creates increased needs for neighbor- hood open space ("open space impact"l to pay a proportionate share of the City's capital improvements to fulfill said open space impact needs. 3. Dedication of Land a. Amount of land to be dedicated. The amount of park land dedication shall be determined by the following formula: A x .65DU x PDU x 311000 A = Acres of undeveloped property DU = Dwelling units per undeveloped acre (65% of maximum dansity allowad by tha Zoning Chapter). This percant- aga raflacts tha average development density occurring in Iowa City. .

This formula shall be deemed reason- ably calculated to meet the developer's proportionate share of the devel- opment's impact upon and creation of increased and additional need for neigh- borhood open space. b. Nature of land to be dedicated. Except as otherwise required by the City at the time of preliminary PDH plan approval, all dedications of land shall meet the following criteria: (11 Usability. At least ninety percent (90%) of the land required to be dedicated shall be located outside of floodways, lakes or other water bodies, areas with slopes greater than fifteen 15 percent (15%), wetlands subject to Federal or State regulatory jurisdiction and other areas the City reasonably deems unsuitable for neighborhood open space due to topography, flooding or other appropriate con- siderations. Dry bottom storm- water detention facilities and dry creek areas may be credited to- ward reaching a portion of the required land dedication when the City determines that such areas are suitable for use as neighbor- hood open space. The City en- courages the dedication of lakes, ponds, creeks, other water bodies, wetlands falling under the jurisdic- tion of State or Federal agencies and other sensitive areas such as woodland areas, both as ten per- cent (10%1 of and in addition to the dedicated land required by this section, if sufficient abutting land is dedicated es a public recreation area or park. (2) Unity. The dedicated land shall form a single parcel of land, ex- cept where the City determines that two (2) or more parcels or green ways/trails would best serve ~~~. - ~-~~. ,- '-l~,OJ1J))';,;" , ,r ,_," .1 ..,..'..., ~YO~ ,..'

If the City determines that two (2) or more parcels would best serve the public interest, the City may require that such parcels be con- nected by a dedicated strip of land at least twenty (20) feet in width in order to provide access and continuity between said parcels. (3) Location. The dedicated land shall be located so as to reasonably serve the recreation and open space needs of the residents of the planned development housing, and shall be deemed to be reason- ably calculated to meet the resi- dents' increased recreation and open space needs. (4) Shape. If a sufficient amount of land is dedicated to accommodate recreational facilities and activities, such as fields, courts or play- ground equipment, the shape of the dedicated land shall be suitable for such facilities and activities. Linear open space should be of sufficient width to accommodate trails and adjacent greenways. (5) Access. (a) Greenwavs/trails Public access to greenways/trails shall be provided by a public access easement at least twenty (201 feet in width. In addition, greenways/trails shall be con- nected to existing or proposed greenways/trails on adjacent property, (b) Parks Public access to the dedicated land to be used for parks shall be provided either by adjoining public street front- age or by a dedicated public access easement at least fifty (50) feet in width which con- nects the dedicated land to a public street or right-of-way. The grades adjacent to existing and proposed streets shall permit reasonable access to the dedicated land. The parcel shall be safely accessible to pedestrian traffic.

WHEREAS, neighborhood open space is considered a vital part of Iowa City's community, and often serves as a focal point of neighborhood activity; and WHEREAS, attractive open space enhances and preserves private property values, and also serves the immediate and future needs of area residents in the same way as other capital improvements such as streets, water mains and sanitary and storm sewers serve residents of a neighborhood; and WHEREAS, active, usable neighborhood open space includes pedestrian/bicycle trails preferably located within natural greenway systems, and also includes neighborhood parks that serve nearby residents; and WHEREAS, it is the intent of the City of Iowa City, Iowa to ensure that adequate usable neighborhood open space, parks and recreation facilities are provided in a manner consistent with the Neighborhood Open Space Plan adopted as part of the City's Comprehensive Plan on July 20, 1993 and that the method of assuring such open space is an equitable, predictable and reasonably calculable way to acquire needed open space as development occurs in the City. WHEREAS, the City of Iowa City, Iowa has determined that new development creates an impact and burden upon existing neighborhood open space, as well as a need for additional neighborhood open space; and WHEREAS, the provision of neighborhood open space through dedication of land and/or payment of fees to be used for land acquisition in lieu of dedication is a reasonable and objective method for addressing and alleviating such impact, and promoting and protecting the public health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Iowa City.

I have prepared responses to each of the questions raised. 1. Can the City bill per 10 cubic feet rather than 100 cubic feet? Yes; but the cost to do it is prohibitive. All the meter heads would have to be replaced and two new wires added from the meter to the outside reading device. 2. Regarding the administrative fee, can the City keep that fee at the $3.00 level rather than increasing it to the $5.00 level? This is a $2,000 annual revenue line item. The City Council can keep it the same, eliminate it, or raise it at their discretion. 3. What is the time frame to convert from bimonthly to monthly billing? We have estimated that the time frame would be between 6 and 8 weeks. I believe those are the questions you needed answered. Please call me at 356.5052 if you have any further questions. r-' t r:~" C\ \ '~ .~I (.~...... ( bJlquesUons ~ I J1 II'" !

"''','' .'..'.'_'...___....__.__..__. _ _ .. FIVE POINTS FOR DISCUSSION OF WATER/SEWER RATE STRUCTURE VOTE: 1. Separate water and sewer rates into two ordinances. This will help clarify the differences in rates and purposes of each facility, This may be of little consequence to the city council, but it could be helpful for better public understanding of the various issues. It wouldn't really change anything about the ordinances themselves. It would just mean two separate votes and discussions. 2. Amend the water structure to incorporate a smaller minimum fee. This will relieve the burden on small users and make the two hundred cubic feet of water. used not quite so expensive. 3. Amend the water structure to have a flat rate versus variable rate charge for the resource. This makes it consistent with our sewer rate structure and does not penalize smaller users for using less water, or, put another way, it does not reward very large users. 4. Amend the water structure to incorporate a tap on fee. The rationale behind this is twofold. One, it makes new development pay more of it's fair share of it's burden to the system, and secondly, it makes things consistent with our sewer system. 5.

Many persons are living on the edge finanically and Vie are concerned that persons (regardless of age) not be forced out of their homes because of the increased rates. We realize that this will mean that other pel'sons will need to pay more, or that the funds not collected will nced to come from anothel' fund. We realize, however, that you providc reduced transportation rates as a matter of city policy. We are asking that you do the same for the two essential services of water and sewer. ~~08 ~ -....... --:;- """'l 2, " ~~ __ ' 0_ 0~21:;1 ""' '" ',':" , _....T'.',Yi,:; ~.' 5 !'~ "~.,' ;~: I " , ~ '.1 " ~ I I ,', , ' I " I ~' I > ., , r ~ 'f' : ,0, ~~.k~:.

IOWA JAMES B. BOORMAN 2705 FRIENDSHIP ST. IOWA CITY IA. 52245 PH 319 338 2916 11/18/94 TO ALL IOWA CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS IOWA CITY CIVIC CENTER IOWA CITY IOWA 52240 I am a 68 year resident of Iowa City and would like to voice my opinion about some of the happenings here. 1.) The new water plant! Is spending this much really , necessary? Charging the costs to the users water bill is wrong. It should be charged to property taxes. Property taxes can be tax deductible. property taxes have controlled limits to protect the people. If you donlt spend property taxes on the water plant you will spend them on something else and we will have high taxes and high water bills. High utility bills are very difficult for low income people to handle, for some almost impossible. I am conserving water now because of the utility bill increase due to the new sewer plant. I quit watering my lawn. When you raise water bills as predicted, My goal will be reduce water usage by 50%. This will reduce my contribution to the new sewer and water plant 50%. If everyone does this you will be in financial trouble. By collecting via property tax you will be guaranteed a constant income to payoff the bonds. I strongly feel it is not necessary to condemn homes to get the property for the water plant there is enough property there without taking the residents homes and this will reduce the cost of the property. One last comment getting water from deep wells may taste better but will be hard water that will cause all the household problems associated with hard water. . I have a filter on my water system and the water tastes fine. Could this be a less expensive way to solve the problem. Install neighborhood or household filters. Why does the water plant have to be all in one area. The water rate structure favors the large user. The large users pay a small amount for most of the water they use and are being supplemented by home owners. It cost the same to produce the first 100 cu ft as the 500 100 eu ft of water usage, I ask the council to change the water rate structure to be ~'08 - "III" "' ~ ~.. - , ,....' , ~")c? ' ,..

"" ./ " ( .,,,, " - / fair for everyone, One rate per 100 cu ft for all. This will help reduce the water bills for low income people and home owners. 2.) The airport: I am happy we are not going to build a new airport. I feel we should not spend much improving the existing airport because it is used mostly for hobby use and the Cedar Rapids airport nearby for commercial planes. It is much safer for larger planes with multiple passengers to land at a controlled airport. If you like to spend a lot of dollars on hobbies I have a couple hobbies that could use some extra money. From what I read in the papers I don't feel the airport Commission is acting in the best interests of the people of Iowa City and they are not telling the whole story to the council members. 3.) Purchasing the old power dam in coralville for a walking trail: This should be out of question. I cant imagine' taking on the responsibility of something like a dam just for a hobby again. I can just see the state or federal government telling you that you have to tear down the dam at a very large cost at some future time. 4.) Extending 965 from Coralville to Iowa City: Why is Coralville so Interested in Iowa City's welfare? Iowa City has more traffic than it can handle now. It isn't far from 965 to 380 via 180 to bypass coralville. Well this is about all you have time to read now. I do think the council should do all it can to reduce costs and spending. Private businesses are doing it, Gov. should be more conservative. .,"':"'l" f! (\l ~ t,.""" , , I , I I I ~ Sincerely I i I i I i,/{" 11-' I( I, , ~,,,}\ " e , )" ;\':1"'''' ~i ii~', ,,'.','.

I have two questions that are of concern to residents in that vicinity: L Will the plant affect our well capacity? I talked to Don McDonald, a certified ground water expert, who said in light of the fact that our wells experienced capacity problems during the drought years, it is indeed possible that the Iowa city well could have a negative impact on our ~lells. Have you done any environmen- tal impact studies? As I understand it, they are an important part of any such project, and would give you the information required. It seems to me this project is being hurried without the proper study. 2. Why are you planning to tap the Salurian (sp?) and not the Jordan I'later reservoir? Dr. McDonald indicates that almost all such large-scale wells are linked to the Jordan, which would not threaten the water supply of the residents at all. Even though it would be a little more difficult to process, it seems that something that would not put at risk the water supply of so many residents is a much better option. I" Please respond to these concerns. Sincerely, -t +k:tl Evelyn Scott '!. - .::( 11':& .. ::r:~ C\I 0:0 lrJ :;: 1.<1- a.. -.1 >-= " .-J C\I (..),1_ "=' C\I ,~.'-u g.r~ :> '- :-<r.

Concerns About Proposed Water Rate Increases City of Iowa City Presented To The City Council Edwin K. Barker November 22, 1994 A slumbering giant is awakening with a roar which is building to a crescendo in Iowa City as more and more citizens express their concern about the horrendous increase in water rates being proposed by the City of Iowa City. And if this isn't bad enough, consider the surprise we received at the Council work session last night when a proposal was made prepared by' city staff at the request, I suspect, of one or more council members, to shift some of the burden of the increase from single family dwellings where, on average, more of the affluent people live to multiple dwellings of five or more units where more of the less affluent people live. This proposal includes increasing the cost of the water usage portion of our city utility bill that exceeds 3,000 cuft by 219%. Some people think that maybe the train has already left the station. That may well be, but it hasn't reached its destination yet. Therefore, my answer is that it is time to saddle up the horses, cut the train off at the pass and switch it to a track going to a different destination. Tonight I am representing my wife, myself and the people who live in our apartments. However, these remarks have the support of the Greater Iowa City Apartment Association, The Tenant Landlord Association (primarily a tenant advocate group), and the student governing body at the University. These groups represent approximately 10 to 15,000 people who will be directly affected by the increase in water rates. I am not here to complain but rather to be part of the decision making process to help develop a solution that will provide ample safe water at a cost that is affordable. It is time for us as citizens to take a firm stand to control spiraling costs associated with governmental services. The water rate issue is a good place to start. It is also time that the Council and staff listen carefully to these concerns and join with us in a concerted effort to arrive at a reasonable solution to the water issue. The proposed water rate increase is a major topic of discussion among the citizenry and they are not happy about it nor do they understand the necessity of such an expensive project. Let me make clear that I am not an engineer, a water specialist nor a consultant. I do know, however, that when a major cost to families, individuals, businesses and industries is to more than double over a 13 months period of time and perhaps triple soon thereafter if there are cost over runs, there are, without a doubt, acceptable alternatives. These alternatives must be studied carefully, utilizing a variety of consultants, the level headed advice of the public, governmental regulations and other sources of available information. Let us take a brief look at some of the things that must now be considered. First, we need to analyze what happened on November 8th and realize that there is a significant likelihood that federal unfunded mandates will be modified. At a recent conference of mayors, the roll- back of these mandates was a major topic of conversation. As a matter of fact, the first thing that one of the leaders of this group in a media interview talked about was the water quality mandate. Also, some Senate leaders have suggested as recently as yesterday that all Federal ~'01 ~, '~ ~- -- ),' -.,. o ~' T /, fl>'~' ~jJ Cll. D l ~ ~t '! 1" & f.!1!, "~ ~:. ~;{ G~: ,"1 ~t,',',R~, ~ft.

" 1 ..'..~. . ,.... '. -~~~~:;,;:_,. unfunded mandates be abolished. perhaps we need to hold tight and relax to see how this unfolds in the 104th Congress. Second, if a a new water plant is constructed at the current proposed site, the water level of the river would be dependent on the stability of the dam near the Iowa River Power restaurant tO,maintain an adequate water level in the river. If this dam should fail, and it is my understanding that it is in a deteriorating state and is not maintained in the same manner as the Burlington Street dam, there could be a significant cost for maintenance and repairs. Third, it, has come to my attention that there are alternative reasonable locations that would be less expensive to develop, one of which is located south of Interstate 80. Going north of Interstate 80 will not only be expensive due to the necessity of drilling under the highway, but also adds a considerable amount of unnecessary distance to pump the water and to establish sewer lines. If the plant is built on the proposed site, we would probably be the only town in the United States with a water plant at a busy exit of a major interstate. Another site that perhaps is viable would be the Coralville Reservoir as suggested in a recent Press-Citizen letter to the editor. Although it is located north' of I 80, not having to maintain the dam located near the Iowa River Power Restaurant would perhaps offset the cost of drilling under I 80 and the additional pumping costs. That solution would certainly insure a stable water supply. Fourth, for some reason or other, the pipeline owned by the williams Brothers Pipe Line Company does not show up on the city site maps of the proposed water treatment plant. This pipeline should definitely be a concern to all of us. Williams Brothers knows that this line could spring a leak at any time at any place. Why else would they have regular patrols of the entire length of this 30 year old pipeline? Relocating the pipeline would be a significant added cost to the project as there would not only be construction and removal costs, but perhaps easement costs as well. Fifth, everything that I have read in regard to the proposed water plant leads ,me to the conclusion that the City is requesting an inordinately large amount of land for the project. Only the minimum amount of land required by federal standards for the type of water plant under consideration should be purchased. No money from water rates or from any other source earmarked for the water plant should be spent on anything not germane to the water plant. Not one dollar! Cedar Rapids is currently constructing a water treatment plant with a capacity of 20,000,000 gallons per day at a cost of $35,000,000, which could be expanded to 60 to 80,000,000 gallons per day. There is a good possibility that the total cost will be under budget. It is built on 80 acres of land that cost $196,000. Their water rates are being increased approximately 10% per year for a period of 8 to 9 years. We want to build a $50,000,000 plant on 228 acres with a capacity of 16,000,000 gallons per day with water rates more than doubling rather quickly. Currently we are using on average 6.7 million gallons per day with anticipated growth over the next 20 years to an average of 11.15 million gallons. The maximum pumped on anyone given day up to the present time has been approximately 10.5 million gallons. The 16,000,000 gallon per day capacity for a new plant seems to be reasonable. There are perhaps other considerations that I am not aware (7~ '-'. .-- -w~.., _.-~ o. ) : _u.. ,.. " f',., ;1 ; " m [i f~,' M ~~, u ~ i':~' i) ,~, j fii X, ~::' tI I"',~ ~C r~r; '''1 ,,:," Ii::,:'!'

They are all dependent on individual or community wells. In a dry year, where will they be if a significant number of wells fail due to the pumping by the city? Yes, we know if that happens, the city is responsible for any damage done. This brings up two concerns: One, it will take months, if not years, to develop a permanent solution. So what will these people do in the short term? Bathe in the river? Second, the lowering of the water level in the wells could serve as a rationale for the city to annex this area even though most of the people are perfectly satisfied and prefer to live in the county. Seventh, maybe the Iowa City water doesn't always taste as good as we would like, and on occasion has a slightly higher level of impurities than is acceptable by today's standards, but surely there is a less expensive solution. Perhaps our water purity problems are perceived rather than real. If it was just a taste problem, it would be a lot more economical for people who can't stand the taste to drink bottled water. Probably less that 3% of our water is actually consumed by individuals. The rest is used for washing cars, watering lawns, flushing toilets, washing clothes, cleaning streets, industrial purposes, etc. I realize that we cannot have two water systems, but I surely we don't need to spend $50,000,000 to build an acceptable water () plant. Many industries are responsible for cleaning up land and water they contaminate. If entities other than cities were responsible for cleaning up the water the agriculture and manufacturing industries contaminate with chemicals and other pollutants, perhaps we would not need wells. Eighth, if the water plant is not significantly scaled back, the cost of governmental services including the City of Iowa City, the Iowa City Community School District, Johnson County, and the State Legislature will, during 1994, 1995 and 1996, increase somewhere between $40 and $50 per month per rental unit. I have mentioned the state legislature because of their unfair property tax system that financially penalizes people who live in rental units and rewards those living in individually owned homes through the very regressive taxing system called the roll back. If you don't take a stand against the proposed excessive water rate increase, if you don't take a stand against the regressive roll back system, and if you don't make every attempt to control the increased costs of government to no more than the inflation rate, then we don't, want to hear a peep out of you lamenting the high cost of rental housing in Iowa City. Government is the problem, not the owners. So, what is the procedure we should follow? In light of the strong possibility that unfunded federal mandates will be modified in . the foreseeable future, we should take a year to re-study the entire situation. Our community is fortunate to have many well qualified experts in water plant requirements. We should use these people along with the city staff members, the engineers employed by the city, and ordinary citizens who certainly have a worthwhile perspective to add to ~,o, :(~..~-~~~- 0")"" a F " \ , )' " , :, I';,', '/' 't l~'~ \'~\ "~"', { ," 'iw ~'!!;JI: k 'I ,; & ./'5' 8[1 __"'u,', ",_. ;,v; ,I,~ .?iJr.t~1.!!', ,I' ~ ,.t .

All of these people should be organized into appropriate committees with definite tasks to accomplish. Each should know what the others are doing and then, through a committee of the whole, recommendations should be presented to the City Council and a final decision made after the middle of November, 1995. If this kind of procedure is followed, a rational decision should evolve that will solve our water problems in a manner that is acceptable to a large segment of the population at a cost considerably lower than is currently under consideration. It is essential that a broad spectrum of people, including plenty of professionals from a variety of points of view, be used. This is such a major project that you must know precisely that you have chosen the very best solution possible which will receive broad support from the citizens if it is to be successful. Some have suggested that a local sales t~x is the answer to the problem. I would be opposed to this if it is merely a substitute method of paying for the proposed water plant. That is merely taxing people in a different way to pay for the original proposal rather than reducing the cost of the project which should be the goal of all of us. If the proposed plant is scaled down to some where between 25 and $30,000,000, a local sales tax could be a viable part of the funding. Let me suggest two steps to be taken immediately. First, adopt a resolution to re-study the entire project with a goal of containing the total cost to no more than $30,000,000. Second, increase water rates on an annual basis beginning in March, 1995 by 10% until income is at a level where the water plant is self supporting and that the bonds can be retired in a timely manner. Income not currently needed to fund water and waste water plant operating costs and bond retirement should be placed in escrow to be used later as needed for retiring the outstanding bonds. ,I am confident" that by truly working together as I have suggested, a good decision can come about that will receive broad support. Thank you for listening and thank you for your willingness to participate in the governmental process that so often brings only headaches, pain, and frustration to you. Your work is appreciated. ~, oca ,,:t~-~='''M_-> . -\ , ',1",:"', ",..'. ':.'..,...."......T;..~c~ ~J?_,x';. "'.\.,,' ",..

NO. 1 I WOULD RATHER HAVE MY DRINKING WATER DRAWN FROM A VIRGIN SOIL SOURCE AND NOT FROM THE SEWAGE DISCHARGE AREA FED BY NORTH CORRIDOR HOUSING AND COMMERCIAL LANDS. A. MORE THAN 400 SEPTIC TANKS DRAIN INTO THE IOWA RIVER UPSTREAM FROM THE BUTLER RIVER. THESE ARE THE RIVER HEIGHTS, WENDRAM BLUFFS, ZAISERS ADDITION AND ALL THE OTHER SUBDIVISIONS LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF NO. DUBUQUE STREET. B. MORE THAN 100 SEPTIC TANKS AND ALL THE SEWAGE EFFLUENT FROM THE CITY OF NORTH LIBERTY DRAIN INTO MUDDY CREEK AND MUDDY CREEK EMPTIES INTO THE IOWA RIVER JUST DOWNSTREAM FROM THE C) BUTLER BRIDGE. C. THEt~ IS A LARGE AND OPERATING ASPHALT PLANT ACROSS THE RIVER FROM THE PROPOSED SITE. THIS SITE IS A SEWAGE CONTAMINATED AREA! NO. 2 THE EXISTING PIPE LINE ON THE PROPOSED SITE COULD RUPTURE AND WIPE OUT A 55 MILLION DOLLARS INVESTMENT IN 10 MINUTES. THE PIPE LINE CARRYING GASOLINE AND FUEL OIL IS ON THE HIGHEST POINT OF THE LAND. ANY LEAK WOULD SEND FUEL PRODUCT DOWN HILL AND DIRECTLY INTO THE SOUTH POND. THIS FUEL PRODUCT WOULD WORK DOWN INTO THE ACQUIFER AND~RUIN THE WELLS. \ , ;;;, ! ! THE THREE 24 INCH CLEAN WATER DISTRIBUTION LINES WILL CROSS TEN WILLIAMS BROS PIPE LINES ON THEIR ROUTE TO THE WEST SIDE, THE NORTH SIDE AND THE EAST SIDE OF IOWA CITY. NO. 4 THE DEFINITE PROSPECT OF EVERY WELL IN A FIVE MILE AREA AROUND THE PROPOSED SITE BEING RENDERED USELESS. THIS HAPPENED TO THE ELKS COUNTRY CLUB AND ALL THE HOUSES AROUND IOWA CITY WHEN THE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA DRILLED DEEP WELLS FOR AIR CONDITIONING USE SOME 20 YEARS AGO AND THE WATER TABLE DROPPED 20 FEET. A HOUSE OWNED BY WASHINGTON PARK ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE ELKS WAS ON OF THE FEW HOUSES ABLE TO ADD PIPE TO THE WELL AND GET WATER....MOST OF THE OTHER HOMES HAD TO DRILL NEW WELLS.
