M
Charlotte,
Thank you for your interest. The changes in the form were new requirements for paratransit services that were
beyond the control of Iowa City. As a geriatric physician who fills the doctor part out many times you could
imagine my empathy. Our transportation director Chris OBrien did a great job of shrinking and simplifying the
form. You should have seen how much more difficult it was before he altered it. We alerted Coralville, North
Liberty and Johnson County so they could also use a our shorter version of the newly required long form. We
are continually looking at new ways to restore funding for reduced paratransit services. Making sure only those
who need it can use it will help. Mr. OBrien has replied to you as well in a separate email.

Subj: Part 1 -- about the new application and instructions for SEATS
service
To Councilman Rick Dobyns, I'm sorry that I failed to include you in the list
that received my messages about SEATS changes. I know you have
interest in that important service. I am aware that you are on the Johnson
County Paratransit Advisory Committee. I have seen the very brief
minutes of that Committee's last meeting that took place in February.
Those minutes tell that the SEATS application was discussed.
Below you will find a copy of Part One of what I sent earlier today to
members of the Johnson County Task Force on Aging about changes that
have been planned for SEATS eligibility. If you have any interest is seeing
Part Two, which includes direct quotes from the packet's troubling
instructions and a few comments about Coralville's SEATS plan, let me
know and I'll send that to you too.
Right now, I don't know if Iowa City, or University Heights, or North Liberty
plans to use Coralville's questionable SEATS application forms and
instructions. Yesterday I emailed Chris Obrien, Director of Iowa City's
Transit Dept, about this subject but so far he has not repled.
I am hopeful that you will try hard to protect those who need that important
transit service.

Subj: Part 1 -- about the new application and
instuctions for SEATS service
To members of the Johnson County Task Force on Aging:
On June 3 1 received a large envelope from the Coralville
Transit department that contained many pages related to
applying to ride the Johnson County SEATS bus. The
application part is for both new and a required re- certification
for current riders. This is the first recertification request since
I became approved in 2010.
Besides the application itself, the large packet also included
a 4 page SEATS rider survey, a 5 page "Physician's
verification of Disability" form, and 5 pages of instructions
and liability information.
This bunch of forms, including the Physician's verification, is
to be returned to the Coralville Transit Dept by July 11th.
The current riders who are not approved will be able to
continue to ride until July 31 st. The paper work tells that
service cannot continue while a denial is being appealed. It
also tells that the application process can involve in- person
interview and /or functional assessment. It also says that
eligibility is not automatically assumed because of a
disability.
After reading over these forms, it looks like it will be much
harder for elderly people, without serious visible disability, to
be approved to ride SEATS.
This is a complex topic that needs the attention of our Task
Force since it could greatly impact the ability for elderly
people who are trying to remain in their own or rented home,
especially our low income elderly and those who are above
75 to 80 years old. Daily life does get more difficult in
advanced old age.
Even the people who live in Emerson Point, the affordable
assisted living facility, will have to be recertified due to this
new SEATS application process. It appears that even those
frail elders will be forced to go through this new effort to
remove as many as possible people from the SEATS
service.
I will send next a message that quotes some troubling parts
that were in that SEATS packet from Coralville's Transit
Dept. I will be interested to hear any comments.

Re: New SEATS Paratransit Application
Dear Mayor Lundell:
It has been brought to the attention of the Task Force that the Coralville Transit Departmei
recently sent to current SEATS riders a six page application form to be completed for
recertification. Apparently, the application is also to be used to qualify new riders. The
application came in an envelope containing a large amount of other materials, including a
page survey, a five page Physician`s Verification of Disability Form, and five pages of
instructions and liability information. The paperwork is to be completed and returned by
11, 2014.
Member of the Task Force have authorized me to write on their behalf, expressing their co
that the forms are too lengthy and complex and also include new alarming language that s
to discount old age frailty as a qualifying factor. The whole process seems to be geared toi
making it harder for elderly people, without serious visible disabilities, to be approved to
SEATS. Elderly people, especially those of advanced ages with low incomes and trying to
remain in their own or rented homes, are negatively impacted by this effort.
We are currently analyzing the forms in greater detail to determine if they comply with
Department of Transportation paratransit rules. However, upon first review the docun
contain a number of troubling statements that directly impact elderly people. As an ex
page 13 of the Physician's Form instructs that disability alone and distance from a bus s
not, by themselves, qualify a person for SEATS. The same is true for inconvenience and
discomfort. Rather, the instructions state the client's conditions must prevent travel by
It is made clear throughout the documents that the SEATS qualification decision is a
transportation decision, not a medical authorization. It is unclear if Iowa City, University
Heights, and North Liberty will be following your plan. Hopefully, they will agree with
elderly people need SEATS services and should not be prevented from using those serviO
based upon a "transportation decision" alone.

We ask that the City of Coralville please investigate this situation and reconsider the application
process so that elderly people can continue to benefit from the SEATS program as they have in
the past.
Thank you.

Department Summaries
Budgetary Fund Structure
Department/Division by Fund
To the Honorable Mayor and City Council Members,
It is my pleasure to submit to you Iowa City's operating and capital budget for the 2014 -15 fiscal
year. Although Iowa State Code requires formal adoption of an annual budget, a three -year
financial plan (fiscal years 2014 -2016) and five -year capital improvement program (2014 -2018)
are also included for planning purposes. The budget is one of the most important documents the
City prepares because it identifies the services to be provided and the mechanisms that finance
those services.
This budget aims to continue Iowa City's tradition of providing a balanced budget utilizing
conservative assumptions while strengthening core municipal services that our residents value.
Should unexpected expenditures or revenue shortfalls arise during the fiscal year, the budget
contains prudent contingency line items and reserve levels that can adequately support the
City's services. Any future modifications of this budget will be fully disclosed to the City Council
and the general public through formal City Council actions at public meetings, in accordance
with State of Iowa law.
In preparing this document, City staff aimed to accomplish four overriding financial goals. First,
the budget aims to prepare for declining revenue
associated with the State's 2013 property tax reform. An
initial estimate of the cumulative effect of these reforms
Financial Goals
over ten years shows the potential for up to $50 million in
decreased revenue. Management of the tax reform

the community's fiscal condition and ensure that it will

the budget strives to maintain a competitive tax and fee environment for economic development
purposes. Finally, we strive to achieve the Government Financial
Officers Association (GFOA)
Distinguished Budget Award for the third consecutive year,
as well as the GFOA Certificate of
Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for
the City's Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report, an award that the City has received for twenty -eight consecutive years.

At the same time, staff referred to the City Council's strategic plan priorities for additional
guidance in developing the budget document. Throughout the budget compilation process, staff
utilized the City Council's strategic plan to help prioritize expenditure decisions. In addition, we
are working to make sure that Boards and Commissions are taking note of the organization's
priorities and actively incorporating those into processes that involve the allocation of City
resources. From a day -to -day management standpoint, the strategic plan is filtering through the
organization, including in individual employee performance reviews. The 2014 -15 strategic plan
process identified five Council priorities for the community. Along with these five priorities, two
overarching values of inclusivity and sustainability were articulated that are applicable to a wide
array of City activities and will guide and inform City initiatives presented throughout the budget.
The City of Iowa City 2014 -2015 strategic plan goals are as follows:
Fostering a more Inclusive and Sustainable Iowa City through a commitment to:
• Healthy Neighborhoods
• A Strong Urban Core
• Strategic Economic Development Activities
• A Solid Financial Foundation
• Enhanced Communication and Marketing
The financial resources in this budget will allow the City to continue to pursue initiatives that
support these priorities and accomplish the Council's long -term goals. For instance, to further
Council's stated priority of enhancing the sustainability of City operations, the FY15 budget
establishes a revolving sustainable projects fund. This program will enable the City to pursue a
variety of projects improving energy efficiency, increasing the use of renewable energy, and
other opportunities as identified in the 2013 sustainability assessment. Similar resources are
provided for in this budget to make progress toward each of the Council's strategic plan
priorities.
While there are certainly unfunded projects that could further the organization's efforts toward
these goals, a fiscally responsible balance needs to be sought and is provided in this budget.
Approximately every four months, staff provides Council with a Strategic Plan Status Report that
details progress on each priority. A report summarizing the completed 2012 -2013 strategic
planning process, significant accomplishments, and ongoing projects can be viewed online at
www.icgov.org /strategicplan. This will be updated with the first 2014 -2015 status report in the
spring of 2014.
With these principles serving as a backdrop, staff has carefully crafted a budget that furthers the
organization's priorities, achieves the stated financial goals, and continues to improve the health
and competitive position of the community.
Community Outlook
Iowa City benefits from a strong local economy anchored by the presence of the University of
Iowa. The local economy consists of a diverse set of successful industries that together help
sustain one of the lowest unemployment rates in the nation. As an organization, the City has a
12
rich tradition of conservative economic policies that has created a strong financial foundation.
This foundation helped the community weather the recent economic recession and continues to
serve as a cornerstone for the community's future. In 2014, Moody's Investors Service noted
that Iowa City's, "financial operations are expected to remain sound going forward given
management's commitment to controlling expenditure growth and maintaining healthy
reserves," and reaffirmed its highest quality bond rating (Aaa) for the community.
Despite the increasing health of the economy and strong financial position of the organization,
the community needs to be cognizant of the trends, pressures and opportunities that are
shaping the community in various fashions. Iowa City is at a pivotal period in its history as it
faces numerous internal and external pressures that will influence the health and vibrancy of the
community. Over the last two decades, Iowa City has witnessed a rapid suburban growth in the
surrounding communities of Coralville and North Liberty. This trend, which is not unlike that
experienced in other metropolitan areas throughout the country, directly threatens the future
well -being of our community. It is imperative that the City carefully analyze and address the
forces contributing to the suburbanization of our metropolitan area and implement strategies to
strengthen our community in a manner that attracts new investment in the residential and
commercial sectors.
In examining the forces behind the sprawling landscape of the larger Eastern Iowa region, there
are three predominant factors within our ability to influence. 1 1
First, is the economic competiveness of our local

government. Specifically, this point addresses Iowa City's

Second, is our organization's responsiveness to the changing demands of the business sector.
This includes the nimbleness of our development review process and our ability to modify
regulations in a manner that facilitates growth in the ever changing marketplace. Third, is to
ensure that capital investments are judiciously planned and that public incentives are
responsibly offered only when the resulting outcome has a justifiable rate of return, quantified
both financially and in terms of the City's strategic plan priorities.
Forces that are outside of our control also influence Iowa City's ability to compete with
neighboring jurisdictions. Lower costs of land and aggressive economic incentives from
neighboring jurisdictions are outside of our span of control yet have a great impact on the City's
13
economy. However, we need to be cognizant of those variables and leverage our unique assets
and character in ways that clearly illustrate value that cannot be matched in other communities.
Fiscal Year 2014 -15 Budget Overview
In preparing this budget document, City staff accounted for the previously- mentioned financial
goals, strategic plan and the controllable factors that influence desired growth and development
in the region. By adhering to these principles, the staff has compiled a budget that balances
both the short -term needs and the long -term health and stability of the community.
The proposed City budget includes projected expenditures totaling $174,532,078. Of the total
operating budget, $52,313,602 is for the General Fund, $50,578,591 is directed to Capital
Projects and $45,669,826 is related to the operations of various enterprise or business funds.
A breakdown of the proposed budget by fund type is provided below.

Iowa City derives the majority of its revenues through property taxes and charges for services.
The following table and pie chart details Iowa City's revenue mix across all fund types. Of note
are decreases in Other City Taxes, which is due to the expiration of the local option sales tax,
and Other Financial Sources, which is primarily due to a decrease in debt sales. Changes in
Use of Money & Property and Charges for Services are primarily due to the reclassification of
some revenue types, rather than significant changes in overall revenue.

It is important to consider how the overall revenue and expenditure recommendations in this
budget will impact local households and businesses. Businesses will realize tax savings from
the outlined reduction in the property tax levy to $16.71. Just three years ago, Iowa City's rate
was $17.84, which means the fiscal year 2014 -15 rate represents a 6.3% decrease over three
years. The amount of services provided, such as water, sewer and stormwater vary
considerably among businesses and therefore total financial impact numbers are not able to be
quantified for a 'typical' business. However, with the savings in property taxes, it is believed that
the majority of businesses in the Iowa City community will pay less in taxes and fees compared
to the previous year. Though in comparison to neighboring jurisdictions, Iowa City businesses
will still be paying higher rates.
On the residential side, it is easier to determine an overall financial impact to an average
household. The following bar chart illustrates the estimated financial impact to the average
household in Iowa City. Despite a lower property tax rate, it is estimated that a typical household
(assuming $100,000 assessed property value) will pay approximately $3.50 more per month, or
$42 per year, in taxes and fees for basic city services in fiscal year 2014 -15. This is due to the
increase in the state rollback percentage, which makes a greater percentage of assessed
residential property value taxable, a 5% increase in the Water rate, and a $0.40 increase in the
Refuse Collection rate. which will be discussed below.

General Fund Highlights
The General Fund, which includes services such as police, fire, parks and recreation, and
general government, represents approximately 30% of the total budget. General Fund
operations are largely supported by property taxes, which constitute approximately 61% of the
total revenue in this fund. A complete breakdown of General Fund revenue sources can be
viewed in the following pie chart.

For economic competitiveness reasons, reducing the property tax rate in recent years has been
a clear priority in assembling City budgets. The taxable valuation of property subject to all levies
in Iowa City increased 3.1 % for FY 2014 -15, primarily due to an increase in the State of Iowa
rollback percentage on residential properties. The rollback percentage defines how much of
residential assessed value becomes taxable in any given year. The following chart depicts the
change in taxable valuations over the last six years.

The budget reflects a reduction of $0.10 in the tax levy, which will bring Iowa City's rate to
$16.71. The reduction is being achieved through several internal strategies, as well as through
an increased rollback figure being applied by the State of Iowa. The internal strategies
employed to achieve a lower rate include the following:
• Debt restructuring and early bond retirement strategies pursued by the Finance
Department
• Favorable health insurance premium rates
• Pursuing equitable cost sharing arrangements from other taxing jurisdictions for
municipal services provided beyond Iowa City's borders
• Achieving operational efficiencies in our departments; this budget contains one new
engineering staff position, with a net reduction of 7.5 FTE across all departments
• Selected user fee increases that reduce property tax subsidies
iP.l
The projected reduction in the property
tax rate follows similar actions taken by Iowa City Property Taxes Paid on a

also send a positive message that Iowa
City is committed to enhancing the local business
environment. The percentage of commercial properties' value that is taxable will also drop 5% in
FY2015, a result of 2013 state legislative
changes, reflected in the chart above. 2013 State
legislation also enacted the Iowa Business Property Tax Credit program to lower property tax
burden on businesses; savings from this program are not reflected in the chart above.
For residential property owners, the combination of the increased State rollback and the lower
property tax rate will mean that a property assessed at $100,000 will pay an estimated
additional $21 in City property taxes in the coming year. This is primarily the result of the
increased rollback percentage, which causes a larger portion of the assessed value to become
taxable.

On the expense side, General Fund operations largely consist of personnel related expenses.
As a result, significant reductions in General Fund expenditures typically require a reduction in
staffing levels. In the fiscal year 2014 -15 budget, an estimated 69% of General Fund
expenditures are personnel related. A complete view on General Fund expenditures by category

Over the last three years, there has been a concerted effort to control General Fund expenses
through staffing policies. While these initiatives help, they struggle to keep up with rising salary
and benefit costs.
The General Fund budget reflects a status quo approach to current services. While there is no
funding for expanded or enhanced service levels, staff remains committed to identifying
efficiencies that strengthen our services without the need for new financial outlay. Items of note
in the General Fund budget include:
• The budget allows for the flexibility to achieve internal efficiencies through department
restructuring. Most notably, the City Manager's Office will be taking steps to merge the
Planning and Community Development Department with the Housing and Inspections
Services Department. This budget neutral change will be fully implemented in 2015.
• Initiatives have been incorporated into the General Fund to address each of Council's
strategic plan priorities, including those that meet sustainability and inclusiveness goals.
• The budget incorporates fee increases approved by Council for the Parks and
Recreation Department in December of 2013.
Enterprise / Business Fund Highlights
Enterprise or Business Funds refer to specific operations that are intended to be self- sustaining,
or without need of subsidy from property taxes or revenue sources other than fees collected that
are directly related to the operation. The budgeted revenues, expenditures and corresponding
fund balances are detailed in the following table.

Each of the City's enterprise funds are in a stable condition. In order to maintain healthy
reserves there are several fee increases included in the budget. Those increases are noted with
other significant changes or issues below:
• The Parking Fund does not contain rate increases after a completely revised rate
schedule was implemented this calendar year, including the 'first hour free' promotion in
ramps. Revenues under the new rate schedule have exceeded initial projections;
feedback on expanded payment options has been largely positive.
• Last year's budget document noted that a water rate increase may be necessary in
FY15 to fund much needed infrastructure improvements and repairs. A rate study
conducted in 2008 noted that while the Water Fund has sufficient resources to cover
current operational expenses, revenues are not capable of funding much needed
infrastructure repairs. The rate study recommended a rate increase of 5% in FY2010
followed by 3% in FY2011. Further, the last three water rate changes were all
decreases of 5% in 2003, 2004, and 2006. In light of this information and planned
capital improvements /repairs in the water distribution infrastructure, this budget
proposes a 5% increase in water fees in both FY2015 and FY2016.
• A $0.40 increase in refuse collection fees is also proposed in this budget, taking the fee
from the current $11.40 to $11.80 per month. This amounts to an annual increase of
$4.80 on residential customers.
Internal Service Fund Highlights
Internal Service Funds serve needs that are internal to the City as an organization. The
budgeted revenues, expenditures and corresponding fund balances are detailed in the following
table.
All funds are in good condition with healthy balances. Strong balances create reserves that can
provide flexibility to deal with unexpected costs or opportunities. Of particular note is the Health

All funds are in good condition with healthy balances. Strong balances create reserves that can
provide flexibility to deal with unexpected costs or opportunities. Of particular note is the Health
PON
Insurance Reserve Fund, which has strengthened in recent years due to relatively low increases
in premium costs.
Capital Improvement Plan Highlights
The capital budget proposed for fiscal year 2014 -15 totals $50,578,591 and the five year Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) totals $223,887,986. The majority of CIP projects in the five year period
improve the local transportation network and municipal utility system. The five year program
continues to reflect the City Council's priorities established in previous fiscal years.

As funding allows, non - committed dollars are directed toward critical infrastructure projects and
initiatives that address the City Council's strategic plan priorities. Of particular note is the end of
the 1% voter approved Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) that expired in June of 2013. These
funds have been collected to fund flood recovery and mitigation projects, most notably the
Gateway Project (Dubuque Street) and the South Wastewater Plant Expansion. Other funding
sources, including local monies are expected to be required to supplement LOST revenues on
these high dollar projects.
In FY 2014 -15, staff is projecting the issuance of approximately $8.39 million in general
obligation bonds. The use of general obligation bonds is required in order to carry out the
projects that are being recommended. The level of bonding projected is well below the
thresholds established by the State of Iowa and is consistent with Iowa City's own internal debt
policies.

Examples of significant projects planned for the coming fiscal years include:
(Sorted by strategic plan priority or other critical need identification) Note many projects span several
fiscal years and may not be fully completed in 2014 -15. Projected costs include those already incurred in
prior years and costs anticipated in future years. Capital improvements utilize multiple funding sources.
Flood Recovery and Mitigation
• South wastewater plant expansion ($54.9 million)
• Gateway project ($51.3 million)
• North Wastewater Plant Demolition ($6.0 million)
• West side levee project ($5.7 million)
• Animal shelter facility construction ($3.2 million)

As illustrated above, staff's recommendations on CIP projects are driven by the strategic plan
priorities and those projects that are already committed. While there are several additional
projects that would further these goals, the City must balance fiscal pressures and limit projects
that increase operating costs in future years.
Debt Service
The State of Iowa limits City debt to no more than 5% of the total assessed value of taxable
property within the corporate limits as established by the City Assessor. The budget anticipates
an outstanding debt of $64 million at FY2014 -15 year end, which is 1.3% of total valuations and
well below the State of Iowa threshold. Considering these figures, Iowa City is carrying debt
equal to roughly 27% of the allowable level. The following chart provides a historical view of
Iowa City's debt in relation to the allowable debt level.
Iowa City's internal fiscal policy was revised in April 2010 to specify that the "debt service levy
shall not exceed 30% of the city levy in any one fiscal year ". The FY 2014 -15 budget includes a
debt service levy that is approximately 25% of the total levy.
The budget continues to reflect prudent borrowing practices, which help preserve financial
flexibility and ultimately lower the cost of borrowing. Over the last several years, Iowa City has
worked to reduce its debt load, which in turn has helped to lower property tax rates in the
community.

Issues on the Horizon
This year's budget was developed with an understanding that revenue sources in future years
will be dramatically affected by 2013 reforms at the state level concerning commercial property
taxes, the tax classification of multiple - family buildings, and the allowable growth percentage.
Some type of property tax reform has been anticipated for several years; this proposed budget
continues the advance planning exercised over this period. The statewide changes will
disproportionately affect growing communities with large multi - family residential markets like
Iowa City. While the total effect of these reforms is uncertain, an early estimate places the
potential cumulative lost revenue for Iowa City over the next ten years at up to $50 million.
Thus, it is imperative that the City continues to pursue initiatives that reduce the overreliance on
property tax revenue and ensure services are being delivered in the most efficient manner
possible. Prudent financial decisions in recent years, including those that streamline operations,
reduced debt loads, and the shift of Transit operations to an enterprise fund has provided the
City some flexibility in dealing with declining property tax revenue, however, in order to maintain
services at or near current levels this level of planning must continue. To do otherwise is to risk
precipitous drops in service levels or rapidly increasing tax rates as the effects of state reforms
are fully realized.
While the state legislature intends that a portion of the revenue lost to cities through 2013
reforms will be 'backfilled' by state funding, it has historically been the case in such situations
that future state legislatures do not follow through with back-fill funding. Thus, this budget
recommends changes to the City's financial policies that will establish an emergency fund,
according to industry best practices supported by ratings agencies, to be used for replacement
of back-fill revenue should it fail to materialize. Other possible uses for such emergency funds
include disaster relief and mitigation funding; health care, insurance, or pension funding
anomalies or emergencies; the avoidance of any defaults from the payment of long term or
bonded debts; or any other financial emergency declared by the City Council.
Given the community's need to become more economically competitive in our taxing structure, it
is unlikely that increases in the property tax rate to offset the loss in revenue will be a palatable
option. With the decreasing taxable percentage of commercial property, rate increases would
disproportionately affect residential property owners. Rather, it is more realistic that a
combination of service cuts and revenue enhancements will need to be considered by the
community.
One option to diversify revenue sources is to pursue a vote on a local option sales tax. Having
achieved its intended purpose for flood recovery, the City did not pursue extending the LOST
that expired June 30, 2013. From 2009 to 2013 the LOST generated close to $35 million, all of
which is being used for the relocation of wastewater treatment operations outside of the flood
plain and the Iowa City Gateway project. Reinstatement of the local option sales tax could help
diversify revenue sources and fund expanded initiatives to achieve strategic plan goals. Thus, I
recommend a study committee to explore the concept and identify potential uses of LOST
revenue. Potential uses could include transportation infrastructure (both road and bicycle),
property tax relief, affordable housing initiatives, neighborhood school partnerships, and
sustainability projects.
PM
The City's enterprise funds are in stable condition. Recent and ongoing capital investments in
Water and Wastewater plants will provide a solid utility foundation, however aging distribution
infrastructure necessitate the rate increase recommended in this budget. We continue to work
through the rebuilding of the landfill cell that was destroyed by the 2012 fire. Fortunately, the
landfill reserves appear to be healthy enough to support the rebuilding of the cell without
significant cost increases to the public. However, the reserve levels will be depleted to points
that will limit short -term flexibility to respond to unexpected operational or capital needs. Moving
forward, reserve levels will be analyzed to ensure proper funding of closure and post - closure
reserves, as well as adequately funding the replacement reserve.
From a capital investment standpoint, the City is continuing to move into the flood mitigation
construction phase. The flood projects have consumed a significant amount of City staff time
and financial resources. As the community initiates and completes these important projects,
more focus and attention can be turned to assignments that directly relate to the organization's
strategic plan.
Conclusion and Acknowledgements
This budget document reflects Iowa City's focus on providing high quality municipal services in
a fiscally responsible manner. It was crafted with guidance provided by the City Council through
the Strategic Plan. Specifically, the budget takes another step forward in becoming more
economically competitive in our region, while providing prudent levels of resources for valued
services and capital projects that align with stated goals and can demonstrate positive returns
for the community.
The City's financial condition remains strong and our reserve levels provide sufficient flexibility
in the event of unexpected conditions. Activities associated with further recovery from the recent
recession and rebuilding from the 2008 flood are projected to provide economic stability in the
region. While property tax reform will create funding challenges in the upcoming years, with
proper planning and realistic priority setting the City will be in a position to achieve our long -term
goals.
In conclusion, I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the efforts of our department heads,
supervisors, and staff in submitting responsible spending plans for the coming year. I would like
to specifically recognize the efforts of the Finance Department, led by Director Dennis
Bockenstedt. Additionally, I would like to recognize the hard work and analysis of Budget
Analysts Deb Mansfield and Nick Schaul, Administrative Secretary Cyndi Ambrose, and
Administrative Analyst Simon Andrew. The compilation of this complex document requires a
significant amount of work, which was largely performed by these five employees in the Finance
Department and City Manager's Office.

Strategic Plan
Priorities
After review and discussion, the City Council identified the following as their strategic
planning focus for 2014 -15:
Fostering a more INCLUSIVE and SUSTAINABLE Iowa City through a commitment to:
• Healthy Neighborhoods
• A Strong Urban Core
• Strategic Economic Development Activities
• A Solid Financial Foundation
• Enhanced Communication and Marketing
It should be noted, that the City Council has placed an emphasis on making Iowa City more
inclusive and sustainable. These two goals are intended to filter through all of the City's
activities and thus were not listed as a single isolated priority in the strategic plan. They are
rather guiding principles that should be considered when working within each of the stated
priorities.
As in previous years, staff will prepare an Action Plan for City Council review and approval.
The Action Plan will set forth specific goals, defined actions and designation of responsibilities.
The status of implementation of the Action Plan will be reviewed on a regular basis with the
City Council.
Initiatives
During the strategic planning session, the City Council identified several new initiatives that
will be combined with on -going commitments from the 2012 -13 Strategic Plan and
incorporated into the new Action Plan for 2014 -15. Those new initiatives include:
Healthy Neighborhoods
• Evaluate programs and methods to promote affordable housing including city
specific and regional actions
• Partner with the ICCSD regarding planned improvements to older schools and the
development of new elementary schools that collectively contribute to stronger
neighborhoods designed for long -term sustainability
Strategic Economic Development Activities
• Inform the City Council and the Iowa City community about current programs and
services provided by City, Chamber of Commerce, ICAD and others to foster local
business growth and economic development; and review duties and responsibilities of
the various organizations engaged in economic development in Iowa City
• Forge additional partnerships with the University of Iowa (Research Park, mixed
use, etc.)
• Examine enhancing the CDBG micro - enterprise loan program to demonstrate to the
general public that Iowa City is committed to serving all populations and ensuring the
long -term sustainability of the community.
28
Enhanced Communication and Marketing
• Advance intent of Ad Hoc Diversity Committee recommendations and develop new
programs /initiatives that directly respond to ongoing concerns
• Increase the diversity of city staff and department leadership
• Explore ways to facilitate and improve relations between city staff and minority
residents
• Achieve greater racial /ethnic diversity on city boards and commissions
• Examine alternative approaches to delivering services and programs for senior
citizens
• Consider establishing council member "listening posts" on a regular basis in
different parts of the city; consider the possibility of joint listening posts with
representatives of other governing bodies
• Meet on regular basis with members of the ICCSD board
• Develop comprehensive communications plan and a marketing strategy for the
community
• Incorporate the 2013 Sustainability Assessment findings into operations and
develop an associated action plan for the community.
Strategic Plan and the Budget
This FY 2015 budget was prepared with a strategic plan serving as a backdrop. In preparing the
budget, the City recognized the impact that funding decisions would have on future progress to
the organization's stated priorities in the plan. As a result, this budget aims to provide resources
that accomplish the following objectives:
1. Maintain the City's core municipal services at levels that meet or exceed community
expectations, and
Direct discretionary funding to projects and initiatives that directly align with the stated
priorities of the Strategic Plan, and
Continues to strengthen the City's strong financial foundation and enhance the budget
document through the incorporation of best practices in the industry.
Each year as the strategic plan is modified or updated, the City will incorporate such changes
throughout the organization, including into the budget document. Through a continual
improvement process that is guided by an organizational strategic plan, the City will continue to
make progress toward the community's stated goals and priorities.

Other Planning Processes
Comprehensive Plan /District Plans - The City of Iowa City Comprehensive Plan, titled Iowa
City 2030, was adopted in the summer of 2013; it presents a vision for Iowa City, provides a
strategy for realizing the vision and sets policies for the growth and development of specific
geographic areas of the city. The Comprehensive Plan guides decisions on planning and
development issues as they arise. The plan evolves as amendments are made.
The plan divides the community into ten planning districts. Detailed plans will be conducted for
each planning district to address the unique issues, features and goals of the different parts of
the city. This process involves extensive citizen participation so that the people of Iowa City help
determine the future of their community. Once adopted by the City Council, the district plans
become part of the Iowa City Comprehensive Plan.
Airport Five -Year Strategic Plan - The Iowa City Municipal Airport exists to serve the general
aviation needs of the greater Iowa City community. This strategic plan is to guide the direction of
the Iowa City Municipal Airport for the period fiscal years 2011 -2015. Through implementation of
the 1996 Iowa City Municipal Airport Master Plan and FAA Airport Layout Plan, facilities will be
maintained and upgraded to comply with the latest safety features and Federal Aviation
Administration regulations.
Fire Strategic Plan - In an effort to work toward self- improvement, the ICFD contracted with the
Center for Public Safety Excellence (CPSE) to facilitate a method to document the department's
path into the future - this resulted in the development and implementation of a "Community -
Driven Strategic Plan." The strategic plan was written in accordance with the guidelines set forth
in the CFA I Fire & Emergency Service Self - Assessment Manual 8th Ed., and is intended to
guide the organization within established parameters set forth by the authority having
jurisdiction.
The CPSE utilized the Community— Driven Strategic Planning process to go beyond just the
development of a document. It challenged the membership of the ICFD to critically examine
paradigms, values, philosophies, beliefs and desires, and challenged individuals to work in the
best interest of the "team." Furthermore, it provided the membership with an opportunity to
participate in the development of their organization's long -term direction and focus. Members of
the department's external and internal stakeholders' groups performed an outstanding job in
committing to this important project and remain committed to the document's completion.
The Iowa City Fire Department's Strategic Plan sets forth a comprehensive vision and mission
statement that provides the agency with a clear path into the future. Additionally, this strategic
plan identifies the core values that embody how the agency's members, individually and
collectively, will carry out the agency's mission. In the following pages, the ICFD identifies its
goals, objectives, and strategies that will allow the agency to realize its vision.

Capital Improvement Plan — The five -year capital improvement program is developed and
updated annually through a process involving all City departments in the collection and review
of the capital improvement needs of the City. The plan reviews, plans, and prioritizes the capital
replacement and capital expansion needs of the City in coordination with the City's financial
strengths. The first year of the City's five -year capital improvement plan is integrated into the
City's financial plan in the Capital Projects fund section.
Park Master Plan - The Iowa City Parks, Recreation and Trails Master Plan is intended to help
meet the needs of current and future residents by positioning Iowa City to build on the
community's unique parks and recreation assets and identify new opportunities. The citizen -
driven plan establishes a clear direction to guide city staff, advisory committees, and elected
officials in their efforts to enhance the community's parks system, open space, trails, recreation
facilities, programs, and services.
Iowa City Public Library Strategic Plan — The Library's current strategic plan covers years
FY11 -FY15. The plan establishes the Library's mission to be, "an innovative and responsive
community center that supports lifelong learning, literacy, and access to the world of ideas."
The plan also establishes four primary goals including making the library easier to use and more
accessible, improving visibility and awareness, developing partnerships, and providing
resources to the community. A strategic planning process update has begun that will address
library services in FY16 and beyond.
Long Range Transportation Plan - The Long Range Transportation Plan is the transportation
vision for the community in the same way that a comprehensive plan is the land use vision for a
municipality. A comprehensive plan provides the basis for subsequent zoning and subdivision
laws in a municipality, and the long range transportation plan should provide a similar basis for
the programming of projects for all modes of transportation, specifically federally- funded
transportation. The Long Range Transportation Plan should be consistent with the land use
plans of individual entities that belong to Metro Planning Organization of Johnson County
(MPOJC). The Long Range Transportation Plan is subject to a public comment process which
assures that members of the public have had adequate opportunity to comment on the
provisions of the proposed plan. The Plan should reflect priorities for the community that can be
translated into politically and financially feasible transportation projects.
Metro Bicycle Master Plan - The Johnson County Council of Governments (JCCOG) Metro
Bicycle Master Plan outlines a strategy to create an accessible, coordinated, safe, and
comfortable bike network that is bolstered by targeted education and encouragement programs,
as well as enforcement and policy recommendations that expand the bicycle network. The
scope of the plan includes the Urbanized Area and important links to surrounding areas. The
process involved the coordination of plans from five communities, Johnson County, and the
University of Iowa as well as a public input process.

A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that
have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local
governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance - related
legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three categories:
governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds
• The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund and includes activities in the
following areas: general government administration, public work administration, public
safety, cultural and recreational activities, community and economic development.
• Special Revenue funds account for proceeds from specific sources (other than those
accounted for within capital projects funds) which are usually required by law or regulation
to be accounted for in separate funds and to be expended for specific purposes. Examples
include the employee benefits tax levy; Community Development Block Grant (CDBG),
Road Use Tax receipts; activities of the Metropolitan Planning Organization of Johnson
County (formerly known as JCCOG), taxes generated for a Self- Supporting Municipal
Improvement District (SSMID), and tax increment financing (TIF) property tax receipts.
• The Debt Service Fund accounts for principal and interest payments on the City's
general long -term debt. Funding is provided by the debt service property tax levy,
transfers from Water Operations, and loan repayments.
• Capital Project funds account for the acquisition and /or construction of major facilities
and assets in excess of $25,000.
• Permanent funds account for resources in which the entity is restricted to expending
earnings and not principal for purposes that support a specific program. The City has one
permanent fund, the Perpetual Care fund, which supports the City's cemetery.
Proprietary Funds
• Enterprise funds are primarily self- supporting in that they are financed by program and /or
user fees for the services provided. Such functions for the City of Iowa City include
Parking, Transit, Wastewater Treatment, Water, Refuse / Solid Waste, Landfill, and Storm
Water Management. The Iowa City Airport, Cable Television, and Iowa City Housing
Authority are also classified as enterprise funds. The Iowa City Airport is not self -
supporting at this time and receives $100,000 property tax subsidy each year. Cable
Television is funded through a non - exclusive franchise agreement. The Iowa City Housing
Authority's primary funding source is through the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD)'s federal grant and voucher programs.
• Internal Service funds (non- budgetary) are also self- supporting and financed on a cost -
reimbursement basis through charges to the departments and divisions (budgetary units)
which utilize their goods and services. Such activities are not reportable, based on the
State of Iowa's budget filing requirements, nor are they reflected in the government -wide
financial statements. Funds in this category include Equipment, Information Technology
Services, Risk Management, Central Services, and the Health and Dental Reserves.
Fiduciary Funds
• Agency funds (non- budgetary) are fiduciary funds that account for resources held for
the benefit of parties outside the city government. For this reason, agency funds are not
appropriated through the budget process, nor are they reflected in the government -wide
financial statements. The City has one agency fund presented, Project Green. Agency
funds do not report revenues and expenditures; they only report assets and liabilities.

Introduction
This Three -Year Financial Plan is for fiscal years FY2014 through FY2016, which begins
July 1 and ends June 30. The Financial Plan includes the current year revised budget,
the one -year annual budget as required by Iowa Code, and provides an additional
projection year as a planning tool. The purpose of the overview is to disclose the basis
on which the financial plan has been prepared.
The role of a government's operating budget differs from that of a private business.
Budgets are an important internal planning tool for business, but they also play an
external role for governmental entities. A multi -year financial plan informs parties inside
and outside government of future objectives and provision of services to its constituents.
The three -year plan also permits a more comprehensive review of the City's financial
condition, allowing analysis of current and future needs and requirements. During
preparation of the plan, careful review is made of property tax levy rates, utility and user
fee requirements, ending cash balances by fund, debt service obligations, bond financing
needs, capital outlay for equipment purchases, and major capital improvement projects.
This document contains operating budgets for the governmental funds: general, special
revenue, debt service, capital project and permanent funds. It also includes business
type funds and internal service funds. Internal service fund activities are considered non -
budgetary in that they are not formally appropriated, reported to the State of Iowa or
included in the adopted budget resolution approved by City Council each year. This is in
accordance with the state's filing requirements. Financial summaries for "All Funds"
exclude these non - budgetary funds.
Budget projections are summarized by major revenue and expenditure categories within
each division. A separate multi -year Capital Improvements Program (CIP) shows
budgeted revenue and expenditures for FY2014 through FY2018.
Basis of Accounting
The modified accrual basis of accounting has been used for preparation of the City's
fiscal year 2015 budget for all funds and fund types including proprietary funds. Fiscal
year 2015 will be the City's first budget using the modified accrual basis of accounting,
whereas prior year budgets were prepared using the cash basis of accounting. The
modified accrual basis of accounting used in the preparation of the fiscal year 2015
budget is similar to the accounting basis used in the City's Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report (CAFR) for the governmental funds, except for the treatment of interfund
loans, loan repayments, and same fund transfers.
Mi
All of the City "s governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis
of accounting. The modified accrual basis of accounting uses a current financial
resources measurement focus, which generally includes only current assets and current
liabilities on the balance sheet. Under the modified accrual basis, revenue is
recognized when susceptible to accrual, which is in the period in which it becomes both
available (collectible within the current period or soon thereafter to be used to pay
liabilities of the current period) and measurable (the amount of the transaction can be
determined). Revenue accrued includes property taxes, intergovernmental revenue, and
interest earned on investments (if they are collected within 60 days after the year -end).
Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. Principal and
interest on long -term debt, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences
and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. This basis differs
from that used in the CAFR for the government -wide financial statements and the
proprietary fund statements.
The government -wide financial statements and the proprietary fund statements are
accounted for on the flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the
accrual basis of accounting in the City "s CAFR. Agency funds do not have a
measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual method,
revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities
are incurred. The City applies all applicable Financial Accounting Standards Board
pronouncements issued on or before November 30, 1989, except those that conflict with
GASB pronouncements, in accounting and reporting for these funds.
Annual Preparation Schedule
The City Manager instructs the Department Heads on whether any changes in level of
service can be factored into the proposed financial plan. This is done before the actual
budget process starts. Changes to the financial plan are done annually during the
budget process. All revenue and expenditure estimates are re- evaluated and revised if
necessary.
In early October, Department and Division Heads are able to access their respective
budget projections. They can make adjustments to their budget during this time. They
review salary projections, history of each Department /Division "s actual line item
expenditures, and projected revenues and costs covered by the Financial Plan. (The
Finance Department projects revenues individually and uses a combination of inflation
factors and individual costs to project expenditures.)
In late October, budget entry is restricted and only accessible to the Finance
Department.
In November, the Finance Department reviews the budget projections with requests
added and compiles them all into a budget. All budget forms and adjustments are
forwarded to the City Manager.
11-M
By mid - December, the City Manager and Finance Department decide which
modifications to operations will be made. A tax levy is computed. Analysis is done so
all funds have required balances or zero balances. Then the Proposed Financial Plan
document is printed.
City Council reviews the Proposed Financial Plan during the month of January.
In February, The Proposed Financial Plan and a memo of Council's changes are
presented to the public. A public hearing is held at least one week prior to the final
adoption.
In March, the final Financial Plan is adopted. The State of Iowa requires a one -year
budget be adopted by March 15 of each year. The applicable year in Iowa City "sthree -
year Financial Plan is adopted as the annual budget to satisfy State requirements.
Amending the Adopted Budget
Budget amendments are typically presented to the City Council twice a year, with a
public hearing held each time to allow for citizen input. The first public hearing is
usually held in early fall, and the second and /or final hearing is in late spring. All
amendments must be formally approved and certified to the State of Iowa by May 31 sc
as required by law.
The fall budget amendment is primarily comprised of appropriations from the prior year
that must be „carried- forward" or re- appropriated as part of the new fiscal year. These
carry forwards are in two forms 1) unspent department appropriations, and 2)
incomplete capital improvement projects.
Departments may request to carry appropriations forward into the next fiscal year that
remain unspent at the end of the fiscal year. These requests are submitted to the
Finance Director for review and then approved or denied by the City Manager. In order
for an appropriation to be carried forward into the next fiscal year, it must meet the
following criteria:
1) The appropriation must be for an item or service specifically listed in the
requesting department's budget. Appropriations for regular and ordinary
operating expenditures may not be carried forward. Purchases of items and
services not listed in the requesting department's budget are not eligible for
carryover.
2) The amount of the appropriation may not be lower than the lesser of 1) one
percent of the activity "s budget, or 2) $5,000.
3) All appropriations to be carried forward are contingent upon adequate, available
resources and fund balance.
MA
In addition to these carry forward requests, there are many capital improvement projects
that span across fiscal years. These projects must be re- appropriated in accordance
with State budget law. The Finance Department compiles a summary of capital projects
and their remaining, unspent appropriations, and then these unspent project
appropriations are included as part of the budget amendment for the following fiscal
year. These two types of budget carry forwards are the primary basis for the first
budget amendment of the year.
The second budget amendment is compiled during the annual budget process. While
department budget requests for the next year are being compiled during the budget
process, departments also submit their revised budget requests for the current year.
These requests help formulate the revised budget for the current year. Revisions to the
current year budget must still comply with the City "s budget amendment policy.
Following the completion of the next year "s budget process and approval in March, the
second budget amendment is compiled and submitted for City Council approval.
Financial statements which compare the fiscal year "s actual revenues and expenditures
to budgeted authority are published by the 1st of December immediately following the
end of the fiscal year (June 30). These statements are also presented for the City as a
whole in the notes to that year's Financial Report. Legal compliance is met if actual
expenditures do not exceed the budgeted expenditures by program areas: Public
Safety, Public Works, Health & Social Services, Culture and Recreation, Community
and Economic Development, General Government, Debt Service, Capital Projects and
Business Type /Enterprises.

FINANCIAL AND FISCAL POLICIES
The City of Iowa City's financial policies set forth the basic framework for the overall fiscal
management of the City. These policies assist the decision - making process of the City
Council. These policies provide guidelines for evaluating both current activities and
proposals for future programs.
Most of the policies represent long- standing principles, traditions and practices, and follow
generally accepted accounting principles which have guided the City in the past and have
helped maintain financial stability.
OPERATING BUDGET POLICIES
• The City will prepare an annual balanced budget for all operating funds. A
balanced budget is one that has revenues sufficient to equal expenditures.
• The City will maintain a budgetary control system to ensure adherence to the
budget and will prepare monthly reports comparing actual revenues and
expenditures to budgeted amounts.
• Operating budgets are established on a fund /department /program basis.
• A contingency account will be maintained in the annual General Fund operating
budget to provide for unanticipated expenditures or to meet unexpected small
increases in service delivery costs, budgeted annually at approximately % of one
percent of expenditures and transfers out. The City Council will be informed semi-
annually on staff initiated amendments from the contingency account to the
operating programs within the General Fund.
• Budget amendments may be made throughout the year with approval of the
Department Director, Director of Finance and the City Manager. The City Council
formally reviews and approves all amendments processed by staff twice a year —
once in the late summer /early fall and once in the spring.
• Increases or amendments to operating budgets are made only in the following
situations:
- emergency situations
- transfer from contingency
- expenditures with offsetting revenues or fund balance
- carry-over of prior year budget authority for expenses that had not been paid as of
the end of the fiscal year.
. Emergency funds will be transferred to operations for the following purposes:
- to provide natural or other disaster response or mitigation funding /interim loans
- to mitigate fluctuations or sudden elimination of State of Iowa property tax backfill
or other State operating assistance
rm
- to mitigate pension, insurance, or health care funding anomalies, emergencies, or
spikes
- to avoid any defaults from the payment of long term or bonded debts
- for any other financial emergencies declared by the City Council
OPERATING BUDGET PREPARATION CRITERIA
General Guidelines:
- Maintain the fiscal integrity of the City's operating and capital improvement budgets
in order to provide services and to construct and maintain the City's infrastructure.

through public hearings, informal meetings, budget briefs and related informational
effo rts.
Service Level Guidelines:
Deliver service levels which are consistent with the citizens' willingness to pay and
the City's available resources.
Base decisions to reduce service levels or eliminate programs on City -wide
priorities.
Recognize that City employees are one of the City government's most valuable
resources and are essential to the delivery of high quality, efficient services.
Revenue Guidelines:

P ➢I
1. Property Taxes - Property tax revenue of $29.5 million is the primary funding source for
General Fund operations, providing approximately 61.4% of total revenue, excluding
transfers in, in FY2015. The FY2015 revenue is an increase of 3.1% of the FY2014
revised budget of $28.6 million and there is an average increase of 3.0% over the last
four years. This does not include a transfer -in of the Employee Benefits Levy from the
Employee Benefits Special Revenue Fund. There are a number of factors which
determine the City's tax levy each year: property valuations by class, the state's annual
Assessment Limitation Order (rollback), TIF district valuations and rebates, statutory
limits on individual tax levies, the City's own Financial and Fiscal Policies, restrictions
from external entities on other financing sources, and funding requirements for projected
expenditures.
100% Assessment - Property valuations are set by the City and County Assessor. State
law requires that all real property be reassessed every two years, specifically in odd -
numbered years. Since 2003, valuations within the Iowa City corporate limits have
increased an average of 6.5% in revaluation years and 2.3% in non - revaluation years.
Valuations reported by the Johnson County Auditor's office for January 1, 2013 served as
the basis for determining property tax revenue in FY2015. Their report indicates a 3.4%
increase in total assessed value in the last year, from $4.67 billion to $4.83 billion.
Assessment Limitation Order / Rollback - The State of Iowa has a statutory growth
limitation of three percent (3 %) annually on taxable residential property valuations. Each
year, the Department of Revenue's Assessment Limitation Order sets a 'rollback' value by
class which, when applied, determines taxable valuations. The growth restriction is applied
to the residential valuations, limiting the growth percentage in taxable value to agricultural
valuations. In other words, the percentage change in taxable valuations for urban
residential property each year is limited to either three percent (3 %) or the growth in
agricultural property, whichever is lower. Growth restrictions and rollbacks for current and
future years were changed with state legislation in 2013 with Iowa Senate File 295; the
resulting reduction in City revenue will be monitored and starts its affect with FY2015
taxable valuation. The growth limitation of three percent (3 %) starting in FY2015 was a
decrease from four percent (4 %) annually on taxable residential and agricultural property
valuations. In FY2015 the commercial, industrial, and railroad property classes will have a
rollback of ninety -five percent (95 %) and the commercial and industrial property rollback
will be back-filled by the State.
The following graph illustrates the impact of the rollback on taxable valuations. In FY2006
the residential rollback exempted $1.17 billion of Iowa City's residential assessed
valuation. In FY2015 the rollback will exempt $1.69 billion of assessed valuations. The
residential and agricultural rollbacks for FY2015 are 54.4002% and 43.3997 %,
respectively, compared to FY2014 rollbacks of 52.8166% and 59.9334 %, respectively.
Also, in FY2015 the commercial, industrial, and railroad rollback will exempt additional
amounts of commercial, industrial, and railroad assessed valuations. Those rollbacks for
FY2015 are 95 %, compared to 100% for last year.

insurance premiums; professional and consultant services; internal service fund charges
(Equipment, Information Technology Services, Risk Management, and Central Services);
training & education; building and equipment repair and maintenance services; vehicle and

buildings, streets, and equipment. Expenditures for supplies are budgeted at $1.4 million in
FY2015. Individual items under $5,000 which may have been categorized as capital outlay
in prior years are now budgeted within the supplies category for FY2012 and beyond. This
adjustment is in line with the capitalization threshold utilized in the comprehensive annual
financial report.

PYA
7. Transfers Out - This category is budgeted at $3.9 million in FY2015. The majority of
transfers out is the result of transit property taxes of $3 million that is transferring into the
Transit Fund.
C. FUND BALANCE
It is part of the City's Financial Reserves policy that General Fund's unassigned fund balance
not fall below fifteen percent (15 %) of expenditures, with a ceiling of twenty -five percent
(25 %). During the FY2010 budget process, City Council further revised this policy, stating that
fund balance in excess of twenty -five percent (25 %) of expenditures could be considered for
property tax relief. In FY2013, $1.9 million of the unassigned balance was used to repay the
Landfill Fund for construction of Fire Station #2 ($946,000), Fire Station #4 ($822,000), Terry
Trueblood Rec Area ($111,000), and Senior Center Building Envelope ($15,000). In FY2014,
$1.7 million of the unassigned balance was used to transfer into the City's Emergency fund.
General Fund's unassigned fund balance is relied upon to provide cash flow during the first
quarter of the fiscal year as the majority of property taxes are not received until Octo-
ber /November. The following chart demonstrates how expenditures have exceeded receipts
in the first three months over the past ten years.

The City has seven (7) Council members, who serve staggered, four -year terms. Four
Council members are "at- large" and are nominated by all voters and elected by all voters.
Although the three "district" Council members (Districts A, B, and C) are nominated solely by
voters within their districts and any primary is held only within the district, they are elected by
voters city -wide. Council elections are held in odd - numbered calendar years.
Council members select the Mayor from among themselves at their first meeting of the calendar
year after each city council election. The Mayor is a voting member of the council and has no
veto power. The Mayor is the official representative of the City, presiding officer of the Council
and its policy spokesperson.
The Council appoints a City Manager, City Attorney and City Clerk. The City Manager serves as
the Chief Administrative Officer of the City.

The City Clerk is the official recordkeeping office of the City, performing recordkeeping duties
as prescribed by State Law, the City Charter, and the Municipal Code.
The City Clerk is appointed by the City Council, reports directly to the Council and attends all
City Council meetings. The City Clerk is charged with custody of deeds, contracts, and
abstracts. The Clerk's office is responsible for the keeping of all ordinances, resolutions,
minutes, and the City Code. The office publishes public notices, ordinances, and minutes as
required by law. The City Clerk's office assists both staff and the general public in researching
information. Taxi company licenses and driver authorization, dancing permits, outdoor service
areas, cigarette licenses, beer /liquor licenses, and cemetery deeds are issued from the Clerk's
office. City subdivision files, project files, the Domestic Partnership Registry, and an index of
Council proceedings are also maintained in the office. The Clerk's office also provides staff
support for the Citizens Police Review Board (CPRB).
The Citizens Police Review Board, based on a citizen initiative, was established in 1997. The
board reviews police policies, procedures, and practices and may recommend modifications to
them. The CPRB also reviews reports prepared after investigation of complaints about alleged
police misconduct and then issues its own written report. The Board is also required to maintain
a central registry of complaints and holds at least one community forum each year for the
purpose of hearing citizens' views on the policies, practices and procedures of the Iowa City
Police Department.

Finance Administration provides direction and administrative support to departmental operating
divisions. It supervises the preparation and dissemination of financial data for use by City
Council and staff in making managerial decisions and coordinates the annual budget process.
The division's budget is organized into five activities: Administration, Disaster Assistance, Tort
Liability, and Non - Operational Administration.
Administration
Administration monitors financial trends and provides analysis of budget to actual data
and three -year financial projections. Staff provide oversight of long and short -term
investment portfolios, cash flows and reserves, and oversees the preparation of general
liability, fire & casualty, and workers compensation insurance specifications.
Administration coordinates annual health and dental insurance renewals.
Administration prepares the annual budget, three year financial plan, and five year
capital improvement program and subsequent amendments thereof.
Disaster Assistance
This activity accounts for Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
reimbursements for repairs to public facilities damaged in the June 2008 floods.
Revenue includes State of Iowa matching funds. In addition to public facility repairs,
reimbursements are also provided for some flood recovery services. Also, this activity
accounts for expenses incurred from the June 2008 flood for which the City does not
expect reimbursement.
Tort Liability
Chapter 384.12 of the Iowa State Code provides municipalities within the state of Iowa
the legal authority with which to levy "a tax to pay the premium costs on tort liability
insurance, property insurance, and any other insurance that may be necessary in the
operation of the city, the costs of a self- insurance program, the costs of a local
government risk pool and amounts payable under any self- insurance program, or local
government risk pool."
The Tort Liability cost center accounts for General Fund's contribution to the Risk
Management Loss Reserve; general liability, fire and casualty and workers
compensation premium costs. The account is administered by the Finance
Department's Revenue and Risk Manager.
1W
Non - Operational Administration
The Non - Operational Administration cost center facilities financial transactions which are
non - operational in nature.
Employee Benefits Levy: State code requires that a separate fund be established to
account for revenue from the Employee Benefits Levy. Monies are then transferred into
Non -Op Admin to cover General Fund's share of Employee Benefit costs levied.
Local Option Sales Tax: A one percent (1 %) sales tax was approved by voter
referendum in May, 2009. These funds are transferred out to the respective capital
projects in FY2012 and 2013. The sunset for this tax was June 30, 2013.
Community Event and Program Funding: The City's Community Events and
Programming budget has financially supported groups that have requested funding for
various community events.
Aid to Human Service Agencies and Community / Economic Development grant funding
were moved out of this cost center with the FY2013 budget proposal.

Department Goal: Increase the efficiency in which lost pets and owners are
reunited.
Department Objective: Increase the number of pets that are licensed and /or
implanted with a microchip. Pets with microchips and /or
licensed are more easily identified and returned to their
owners. This decreased time reduces the stress on both
the pet and owner. This also increases the amount of time
that officers can spend patrolling and addressing nuisance
animals, which can affect the quality of life in a
neighborhood. Outsourcing licensing will be evaluated, as
other jurisdictions have found that privatization has
increased community participation.

The Fire Emergency Operations division works a three -shift system. Each duty shift is
comprised of 24 hours and consists of one Battalion Chief, one Captain, four Lieutenants, and
14 Firefighters. Minimum staffing for the department is 16 emergency response personnel. This
division is directly responsible for all emergency incident response. Calls for service are divided
into four categories: fire suppression, emergency medical services, technical rescue, and
hazardous materials.
• Fire Suppression: ICFD personnel spend time mitigating various types of fires, as well as
time responding to false alarms. Firefighting activities typically require more resources
(personnel, equipment, etc.) than any other type of emergency. Fires also have a greater
potential to harm people and property than other emergencies. The department
continually seeks ways to decrease response times to all emergencies.
• Emergency Medical Services: All ICFD personnel are certified to at least the Emergency
Medical Technician —Basic (EMT -B) level. The department does not transport patients,
but rather serves as first responders in conjunction with Johnson County Ambulance
Service paramedics as part of Johnson County's tiered response system.
• Technical Rescue: Technical rescue includes those incidents where a successful
operation requires the rescuer(s) to employ special knowledge, skills, tools, and
techniques. The ICFD provides several technical rescue services: water and ice
emergencies, trench and structural collapse rescue, vehicle and heavy machinery
rescue, rope rescue, and confined space rescue. The Special Operations Response
Team (SORT) keeps skill levels high with team training in addition to regular company
and shift training on various rescue disciplines.
• Hazardous Materials Response: The department continues to be active and take a
leading role in the Johnson County Hazardous Materials Response Team ( JCHMRT),
which includes 14 ICFD personnel. The JCHMRT consists of 27 members who are
trained and certified to the Hazmat Technician level.
HIGHLIGHTS
• In 2013, emergency service demand continued to increase. The ICFD responded to
over 5500 incidents, a 6 percent over 2012. Total call volume has increased by 24% in
the last five years.
• Fire personnel responded to 204 fire emergencies, resulting in $2.7 million in property
damage. The largest single fire loss was estimated at more than $1.6 million for a fire
that occurred at the Johnson County Secondary Roads facility.
• The ICFD continues to experience a troubling number of simultaneous emergency calls
for service. In 2013, 22% of emergency incidents were overlapping.
IM
Recent Accomplishments:
• Transitioned all responders to new EMT
certification as directed by the Iowa
Department of Public Health.
• Established a quantitative fit - testing
process for all firefighters.
• Instituted the Blue Card incident
management system for all emergency
incidents.
• Augmented EMS diagnostic abilities for
diabetic emergencies by placing
glucometers on every apparatus.
• Adjusted response protocols to include an
additional engine company for probable or
confirmed structure fires, to comply with
CFAI recommendations.
• Modified fire alarm response assignments
to reflect the risk demonstrated by
historical data.
• Increased our tactical capabilities by
instituting wide -area search protocols for
instances involving victims lost in wooded
areas or people who wander from
assisted - living facilities.
• Enhanced trench rescue capability by
adding soil vacuum equipment that can
quickly expose victims of trench collapse.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• Meeting established response time goals.
Growth and development on the east,
southeast and west create response time
challenges.
• Develop a training curriculum and
schedule to gain additional proficiencies in
emergency response to hazardous
materials incidents.
• Research and determine how to best
provide emergency medical services.
Financial Highlights:
Services expenditures decreased by 13.4% due to a decrease in vehicle repair and
maintenance internal charges to the Equipment fund from the fiscal year 2014 budget
($95,000). The fiscal year 2015 internal charges ($56,700) is a 4% increase from the fiscal year
2013 actual internal charges ($54,000) for vehicle repair and maintenance.

The Fire Prevention Bureau (FPB) continues to serve the citizens of Iowa City through fire code
compliance, fire origin and cause determination, and public education programs.
The Fire Prevention Bureau is staffed by a Battalion Chief assigned as Fire Marshal and as
such reports to the Deputy Fire Chief. The Fire Marshal is directly responsible for organizing all
fire prevention activities, including fire /arson investigation, code enforcement inspections, and
public education. A shift fire inspector conducts inspections of liquor license establishments,
schools, day care centers, churches, and City buildings. Emergency operations personnel
conduct fire safety inspections of all commercial and University of Iowa buildings.
The FPB continues to conduct regular inspections for businesses, churches, daycares, schools,
and university buildings. Multiple educational opportunities exist with each inspection: an
opportunity to increase fire safety awareness through explanation of a violation and associated
hazard, firefighters can become familiar with the building, and an opportunity to foster
community relationships.
The wide range of activities provided by fire and life- safety educators include daycare /preschool
and school presentations, Kids Safety House visits, Safety Village, U Resident Assistant Fire
Academy, senior safety tips for older adults, and crowd manager training for assembly
occupancy employees. Building on a long partnership with SAFE KIDS Johnson County, the
department has also trained additional personnel and designated Station 4 as a child safety
seat "FIT Station."
Investigation of fires is an integral part of fire prevention. All reported fires are investigated by a
company officer and /or a member of the fire investigation team in an attempt to determine the
origin and cause. Fire investigation team members have received specialized training and are
required to complete continuing education requirements.
HIGHLIGHTS
• In 2013, the FPB conducted 1,649 fire and life- safety inspections
• In 2013, the FPB investigated 204 fire incidents. As in years past, the kitchen remains the
reported area of origin for the majority of fires; unattended cooking accounted for the largest
number of these fires.

The mission of the Housing Inspection Division is to ensure the housing facilities are of the
quality necessary to protect and promote the health, safety, and welfare of not only those
persons utilizing these facilities, the general public as well. We strive to achieve these goals and
contribute to the overall mission of the City by:
• The inspection of all rental properties located in the City on a two year cycle.
• The inspection of all housing related to the Housing Authority's Housing Choice Voucher
Program.
• Investigating and resolving housing and nuisance complaints for all properties.
The City of Iowa City began the rental housing inspection division in the mid 1970's. The
division has four full -time inspectors, inspecting more than 18,000 rental units bi- annually. We
work with owners, property managers and tenants to ensure conformance with the Iowa City
Housing Code, which establishes minimum health and safety standards necessary to protect
and promote the welfare of tenants and the general public as well. We achieve this purpose by
inspecting all rental property on a systematic basis. Currently, multi - family structures (e.g. those
buildings with three or more units), single family, and duplex structures are inspected every two
years. Fraternities and sororities are inspected annually. Complaint inspection may be made
upon request. In an effort to promote healthier neighborhoods we have shifted to more pro-
active inspections in our core neighborhoods to address nuisance trash and litter violations.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Maintained a two -year inspection cycle for all rental properties
• Added 100 properties to the rental permit roles
Recent Accomplishments:
• 1,600 housing assistance inspections
conducted for the Iowa City Housing
Authority.
• 98.1 % of rental cases brought into
voluntary compliance.
• Implemented the use of ICgovXpress, a
cloud based complaint tracking
software.
11.111
Upcoming Challenges:
• Continue to monitor all available
resources to find over - occupied rentals
and properties rented without permits.
• Facilitate the expansion of ICgovXpress
to all City departments.
• Expand pro - active neighborhood code
enforcement efforts.

education, social engagement, physical activity, and community involvement.
Educational classes cover everything from literature and fitness classes to video
production, music, and art education.
Social engagement among participants and within the community is promoted. Classes,
which are often open to non - members or intergenerational, incorporate time for
participants to interact with each other. Volunteer groups are involved with community
activities to teach, share information about The Center, and conduct fundraising
activities. The AARP Tax Aide Program, University of Iowa Counseling Services,
Volunteer Lawyers, Senior Health Insurance Information Program, Visiting Nurses
Association, and Senior Nutrition Program all ensure that the community comes into The
Center.
Senior Center Programs (New Horizons Band)
This activity accounts for the Iowa City New Horizons Band (IC -NHB). The Iowa City
New Horizons Band was founded in January 1995. The IC -NHB's mission is to provide
the opportunity for all persons age 50 and older to learn and make music. In addition to
the band itself, the IC -NHB will encourage entry -level group -music opportunities for
members and nonmembers alike and facilitate the many current self- formed ensembles
and those that will emerge.
Gifts & Memorials
This activity accounts for contributions and donations made to the Senior Center Gift
Fund.

HIGHLIGHTS
• There were 104,970 visits to Senior Center sponsored programs in FY13
• There were an additional 14,254 and 6,940 visits to The Center for the Senior Nutrition
Program and other services & meetings, respectively
• There were 360 classes, 50 special events, 7 performance groups, 24 groups & clubs,
18 different volunteer activities, and 26 professional services offered at The Center
• Membership climbed from 1,587 at the end of FY2012 to 1,592 at the close of FY2013
• Over 640 volunteers provided services to support Center programming and the
community
Recent Accomplishments:
• The Center conducted a survey during the
summer of 2013. The average satisfaction
rating with programs and services was 97 %.
Positive outcomes from participation were
identified by 88% of the respondents. The
primary beneficial outcomes included:
learning new things; keeping my mind
active; obtaining needed information;
making new friends; gaining a sense of
belonging; and improving personal health.
• Implemented new software to track
memberships, parking permits, sales,
donations, class registration, and other
important services. Worked successfully to
make it 4it" The Center's specific needs and
improve customer service. As a result, on-
line registration for members will become
available in February 2014.
• Promoted outreach programming to all adult
members of the community without regard
to membership e.g. the Senior Health
Insurance Information Program, Honoring
Your Wishes, a community -wide advanced
care planning initiative, and the AARP tax
services.
• Encouraged and supported participant
involvement in leadership committees
addressing community outreach,
membership issues, program planning, and
expanding diversity among Center
participants.

Upcoming Challenges:
• Work with volunteer members of the
Steering Council and Working
Committees, participants, Senior Center
Commission, staff, and Friends of the
Center to diversify The Center's funding.
• Develop a multi -year plan to upgrade
the interior of sections of the building —
flooring, window coverings, some
furnishings, wall coverings and repairs —
to create a safe, welcoming environment
conducive to learning, relaxation, and
social interaction.
• The summer 2013 survey results
showed the participation of low- income
and minority residents in Center
programming is disproportionately low.
Using available resources, develop,
implement, and evaluate a plan to
resolve this situation.
• In response to requests and
recommendations identified in the
summer 2013 survey, use available
resources to expand operational hours
on nights and weekends.

Community Development staff are committed to providing Iowa City residents with access to
safe and affordable housing, jobs and services. This is accomplished by coordinating efforts
with local organizations, businesses and other community partners, and by administering and
coordinating activities relating to city, state, and federal housing and community and economic
development programs.
Economic development activities include:
• Neighborhood redevelopment
• Entrepreneurial and microenterprise business development
• Working with financial institutions
The Housing Rehabilitation program works to help residents maintain and update their homes
by providing financial assistance to income eligible homeowners. The availability of affordable,
low or no- interest loans provides lower income homeowners the opportunity to make repairs
and improve energy efficiency to their homes and ultimately helps to maintain Iowa City's
housing stock. Funding is available through the federally- funded Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership programs, and through the General
Rehabilitation and Improvement Program (GRIP), which is funded by general obligation bonds.
CDBG and HOME descriptions can be found in the Special Revenue Fund section of this
budget.
HIGHLIGHTS
30 former rental properties have been acquired and restored to single family homes to date
through the UniverCity Neighborhood Partnership, a cooperative effort between the City and
the University of Iowa. Seventeen additional houses will be completed in fiscal year 2014
(one funded with CDBG and HOME funds, two funded through the Iowa's I -JOBS Program
and three funded through the Iowa City Hosing Authority), with an expected ten additional
homes in fiscal year 2015.

Recent Accomplishments:
• Secured EPA Urban Waters Program,
Iowa Great Places and Iowa DNR
grants to plan and design modifications
to the Burlington Street dam that could
create recreational opportunities such
as whitewater rafting, boating, and
integration with Riverfront Crossings
and Iowa River Water Trail.
Modifications would also reduce safety
hazards associated with the low -head
dam and create fish passage.
• Completed flood buyouts in the Park
View Terrace and Taft Speedway
neighborhoods. 93 homes were
purchased through the program,
removing these properties from the flood
plain. These areas will be returned to
green space. The buyouts began in
May 2009 and were funded through
federal and state grant programs.
• Partnered with the Iowa City Downtown
District and the City's Economic
Development Division for the Building
Change Program. Four downtown
building owners were assisted with
CDBG funds to rehabilitate the fagade of
their buildings.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• Continue to promote the availability of
affordable housing and assist local
businesses despite decreasing CDBG
and HOME funding.
• Continue the Single Family New Home
Construction Program. The program
was implemented to replace housing
stock that was lost in the 2008 flood.
CDBG funds are awarded by the Iowa
Economic Development Authority.
Currently, 136 homes have been
constructed and sold. Five additional
homes will be constructed in fiscal year
2014 and fiscal year 2015 for a total of
141 homes.
Financial Highlights:

The Urban Planning Division promotes sustainable growth and development within the city by
applying the vision, goals, and strategies of the Comprehensive Plan (including district plans
and master plans for specific sections of the community) and administering zoning and
subdivision regulations. The guiding principle of these regulations and policies are to preserve
and enhance the best qualities of the city's existing residential, commercial, and employment
areas while promoting new development opportunities that create long -term value for the
community. The division fulfills state statutory requirements pertaining to zoning, development,
and historic preservation.
The division provides staffing for the following boards and commissions, which are associated
with developmental regulations and zoning:
• The Planning and Zoning Commission is charged with drafting and implementation of
the zoning code and subdivision regulations in accordance with the Comprehensive
Plan. Commission members review annexations and requests for rezoning and
subdivision; making a final recommendation to City Council.
• The Board of Adjustment reviews requests for special exceptions, variances and other
appeals pertaining to the zoning code.
• The Historic Preservation Commission conducts studies and implements regulations
designed to promote the preservation of historic landmarks and districts.
Urban Planning staff work with prospective applicants to review requirements for new
development and construction and to create solutions for properties that confront obstacles to
development, renovation, or reuse. Once an application is filed, staff reviews the proposal,
coordinates feedback from various departments, provides advice to the applicant, and writes
reports, including recommendations to boards and commissions. Staff prepares public notices,
responds to questions from the public, and prepares meeting agendas and minutes. Staff also
administers the design review process for infill apartment buildings and urban renewal projects.
HIGHLIGHTS
• In 2013, the City Council adopted the IC2030: Comprehensive Plan Update.
09YA
Recent Accomplishments:
• Plan update with the Riverfront Crossings
Master Plan, which will guide the community
preservation and redevelopment efforts for a
large area in the center of the city generally
bounded by Burlington St. on the north,
Highway 6 on the south, Gilbert St. on the east
and Riverside Dr. on the west. The Plan details
new opportunities for housing, business,
recreation, transportation improvements, arts
and entertainment. Key features include mixed -
use and pedestrian- oriented development, local
and regional rail service, an artists' district with
live -work space and galleries, and a
landscaped promenade linking downtown to a
riverfront park, which will replace the flood -
damaged North Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• The Urban Planning and Historic
Preservation Division will work to
implement the Riverfront Crossing
Master Plan through a form based zoning
code, a detailed plan for the riverfront
park and review of infill development
proposals.
• The division will continue to use historic
and conservation districts to implement
the strategic plan initiative to create and
sustain healthy neighborhoods. In this
effort the Historic Preservation
Commission will be considering the
Horace Mann Conservation District for
portions of the Northside Neighborhood
surrounding Horace Mann School.

Revenues for building and development fees are budgeted to increase by 48.9% due to the
level of development activities.

The Neighborhood Services Division provides a conduit between all City departments and the
network of neighborhood associations within Iowa City, and facilitates the distribution of funds
made available by the City Council for small -scale neighborhood improvements.
Neighborhood Services supports and encourages citizens to help shape the future of their

clarifying the administrative rules, assisting with project development, review by the
Neighborhood Council, preparation of a recommendation to the City Council, formal approval by
the City Council, execution of contract documents, and implementation of projects.

donation stations for local residents wishing to donate to local human service agencies
serving the homeless. Contributions are made to such organizations as Shelter House,
Crisis Center, Free Lunch, Free Medical Program, Community Mental Health, and

Transit Operations were reclassified as an enterprise fund at the start of FY2013, with existing
cash balances transferred out of the General Fund. In FY2006, Court Street Transportation
Center was constructed with the assistance of federal grant monies which were designated for
transit - related facilities. Operating revenues were then assigned to Transit Operations within
the General Fund. Since FY2008, Court Street has generated a surplus for Transit Operations,
making it viable as an enterprise fund in that it is primarily supported through user fees. Current
budgets and future projections for Mass Transit Operations can be found in the Enterprise Fund
section of this budget.
This change effectively eliminates approximately $1 million from the Employee Benefits tax levy
asking annually, as the employee benefits levy can only be utilized for General Fund and Road
Use Tax Fund employee benefits per Iowa Code. Transit operations, staffing, and fare prices
have all been reviewed to ensure adequate revenues are available to maintain the operation's
viability as a self - supporting enterprise fund.
The schedule presented show transit operations in the General Fund through fiscal year 2012.
Fiscal years 2013 through 2016 are presented in the Enterprise Fund section. See the Transit
Operations pages within the Enterprise section for more information on this operation.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) FUND
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds are provided to the City of Iowa
City on an annual basis from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
CDBG funds are used throughout the community to address the needs of lower income
citizens. CDBG funds may be used for a variety of activities (e.g. public services, public
facilities, housing, economic development, fair housing, and job training).
The CDBG fund has a budgeted ending cash balance of $497,813 in fiscal year 2015
versus an estimated ending cash balance of $341,170 in fiscal year 2014. The increase
is related to the timing of grant revenues and loan activity.

The mission of Community Development Block Grant operations is to develop viable urban
communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and economic
opportunities, principally for persons of low and moderate incomes.
As part of the Department of Planning and Community Development, the Community
Development office is responsible for administering and coordinating activities relating to
federal, state, and local community development programs. This includes Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) programs. CDBG funds are used to acquire property,
construct new buildings, rehabilitate existing buildings and owner- occupied homes, operate
service agencies, and encourage micro - enterprise development. Community Development staff
coordinate with local service agencies, small businesses, and lenders in the administration of
these programs.
The City created a citizen advisory group, the Housing and Community Development
Commission (HCDC), in 1995, to assess Iowa City's community development needs for
housing, jobs and services for low and moderate income residents, and to promote public and
private efforts to meet such needs. HCDC leads the CDBG /HOME allocation process to
determine what projects will be awarded funds based on priorities established in CITY STEPS,
Iowa City's Consolidated Plan for Housing, Jobs and Services for Low - Income Residents.
MIM01���:r��
• Over $32 million in CDBG funds have been invested in Iowa City since 1974
• In FY13, programs leveraged $2,847,719 in private and public funds
• In FY13, programs assisted 1,143 persons who are homeless with support services and
shelter upgrades
• Provided operational funding to non - profits that assisted 13,230 persons during fiscal
year 2013
• Assisted in the creation of 20.5 FTEs for primarily low- moderate income persons.
• Assisted in the construction or rehabilitation of 86 affordable owner - occupied or rental
homes.
FY14 projects are identified in the FY14 Annual Action Plan at wvvw.icgov.org /actionplan.
The CDBG and HOME allocation process, including the public input process can be found in the
City's Citizen Participation Plan.

Recent Accomplishments
• Rehabilitated 56 affordable rental
homes
• Completed improvements to six non-
profits facilities. The missions of these
agencies include assisting those with
chronic mental health problems,
employment training, the youth,
substance abuse problems, and those in
crisis. The Fair Meadows splash pad
was completed this summer.

Textures Salon (left) is a past recipient of CDBG micro -
enterprise funding. FY13 CDBG Economic
Development low- interest loans were utilized to open the
following businesses:
Trumpet Blossom Cafe, Molly's Cupcakes, and IBlitz
Boxing & Fitness Club. Combined, these businesses
created 20.5 full -time equivalent positions.
Upcoming Challenges:
• Continue to provide housing, jobs
and services to low- moderate
income residents despite decreasing
CDBG and HOME funding.
Financial Highlights:
Federal intergovernmental revenue is budgeted to decrease by $220,000 or 21.1 %.

HOME PROGRAM FUND
The HOME Program Fund accounts for HOME Investment Partnerships program
(HOME) funds that are provided to the City on an annual basis from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Budgeted fund balance at the end of fiscal year 2015 is $135,765 which is a 54%
increase from the fiscal year 2014 revised estimate. This is primarily due to a reduction
in loan repayment activity. An adjustment due to a change in accounting method is
being presented for FY13 to reduce fund balance by $6,873. The City's budgetary basis
was changed from a cash basis to a modified accrual basis. The reduction primarily
represents wages and accounts payable at year -end.

FY15 Adopted - $641,922

The Road Use Tax fund accounts for revenue sharing from state taxes related to transportation
(road use taxes). Road use taxes include gasoline taxes, weight taxes, and license fees
collected through a state and deposited into the Iowa Road Use Tax Fund (RUTF). After some
off- the -top diversions, receipts into the RUTF are distributed according to a formula of 47.5
percent for the state primary road system, 24.5 percent for secondary county roads, 8 percent
for farm -to- market county roads, and 20 percent for city streets.
In 2008, an additional source of state revenue was established through legislation creating a
separate "TIME-21 " funding stream. This revenue is dedicated primarily to maintenance and
construction of certain primary highways in the state (60 percent), but also of secondary roads
(20 percent) and municipal streets (20 percent). The new revenue stream was created by
changing certain vehicle registration fees and schedules and by increasing trailer and title fees.
The road use tax funds are allocated to cities on a per capita basis. The population counts used
for distribution are based on the U.S. Census Bureau figures, which are updated every ten
years. The 2010 census was finalized in the summer of 2011 and resulted in an increase in the
City's population from 62,220 in 2000 to 67,862 in 2010. This result caused the City's road use
revenues to take a step -up during fiscal year 2012.
The city use of these funds is restricted for street and storm sewer maintenance, repair, and
construction. This includes engineering, street lighting, streets signs and signals, snow
removal, street cleaning, right -of -way maintenance, and related activities.
Road Use Tax Fund fund balance on June 30, 2013 was $2.84 million, an increase of 74.1 %
over the FY2012 year -end balance. FY14 projected cash balance is a 15.8% increase
compared to FY13; FY15 projected cash balance represents a 12.3% increase over FY14.

FY12 -14 fund balance growth reflects the growth in the City's share of the road use revenues as
well as a change in how some capital projects are funded. Several projects funded through
RUT that were moved to bonded projects are being returned to RUT funding in FY15 such as
the ADA curb ramp program.
In addition, FY13 ending fund balance was adjusted upward by $361,578 due to the change in
accounting method from cash basis to modified accrual basis. The adjustment primarily reflects
the road use tax payment due at year -end from the State less outstanding wages and accounts
payable.
Revenue:

other miscellaneous revenues.
In FY15, Iowa City road use tax revenue is
projected to be over $6.6 million, a 1.04%
increase over the FY14 estimated revenue.
Road Use Tax revenues represent over

The division's budget is organized into four activities: Road Use Tax Administration, Traffic
Engineering, Streets System Maintenance, and Sidewalk Inspection. The Road Use Tax Fund
accounts for the activity of the Streets division.
Road Use Tax Administration
Road Use Tax Administration accounts for Road Use Tax receipts, receipt of the Streets
division's portion of the Employee Benefits Levy, and costs associated with an annual
audit and loss reserve payment.
Sidewalk Inspection
Iowa City is divided into ten geographical areas for sidewalk inspection. Each year, the
sidewalks in one of those ten areas are thoroughly inspected in accordance with the
criteria established by the City Engineer to determine if sidewalk repairs are necessary.
Traffic Engineering
Traffic Engineering staff coordinate and maintain traffic signals and signage, traffic and
pedestrian signs, traffic, bicycle, and pedestrian street painting, street lighting and poles.
Streets System Maintenance
Street crews provide maintenance and repair of the City's concrete, asphalt, and brick
streets, provide maintenance and repair to culverts, catch basins, and other City right of
way property, street sweeping, leaf vacuuming, and snow plowing.
HIGHLIGHTS
• The Leaf Vacuum Program serves all Iowa City residences and businesses that are
adjacent to public streets.
• Streets in the downtown area are swept every Thursday evening into Friday morning during
spring, summer, and fall seasons.
• City alleys in the downtown area are swept every Monday morning during spring, summer,
and fall seasons.
• Response time to the majority of potholes reported during regular business hours is no more
than two hours.

box culverts throughout the City.
OWA
Recent Accomplishments:
• Patched approximately 2,700 potholes and
replaced 200 street panels in FY13
• Traffic Engineering staff have successfully
completed additional signal interconnect
locations at McCollister Blvd., Mormon
Trek Blvd., at the intersection with Hwy 921
• The Streets Division completed new 80'x
80' warm storage building
• Leaf program picked up 663 loads totaling
1,823 tons in FY13

comply with Federal retro - reflectivity
requirements.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• Limited road use tax revenues
inhibit our ability to perform
adequate preventive maintenance
• This deferred maintenance will
result in poorer pavement quality
and increased demand for patching
and temporary repairs
Financial Highlights:
Road Use Tax revenues are budgeted to increase in FY2015 by 1 % to $6,616,545. The Streets
division has budgeted $120,000 in Traffic Engineering for traffic signal equipment and $12,500
in Streets System Maintenance for one -half of the purchase of a forklift to be split with the
Refuse Collection division.
Road Use Tax funds are budgeted to be transferred to the Capital Projects fund totaling
$715,000. This includes $100,000 for ADA curb ramps, $50,000 for LED streetlight
replacements, and $425,000 for the annual street overlay program.

This fund accounts for federal and state disaster and stimulus grants, including Jumpstart Iowa,
Hazard Mitigation Grant Project (HMGP) Buyout, and Supplemental Community Development
Block Grants (CDBG). Individual programs provide public assistance for business and
residential flood recovery efforts, the acquisition and removal of properties within the flood plain,
down payment assistance for owner - occupied affordable housing to replace the tax base lost
from the buyout. Infrastructure projects related to flood protection include levees, water well
head protection, and bridge and roadway elevation. The City of Iowa City's role in the majority
of grant programs is to manage pass- through grants and distribute them to Iowa City
businesses and residents affected by the flood.
Assistance Summary:
• Buyout: 93 residential properties were acquired in the Park View Terrace and Taft
Speedway neighborhoods with disaster recovery buyout grants. The HMGP Buyout has
been closed out, and the CDBG Buyout will be closed out in 2013. Approximately $22
million in grant funds have been expended for property acquisition, demolition and
relocation.
• Residential Rehabilitation: 106 households received assistance from state Jumpstart
and federal Jumpstart grants. Approximately $3.3 million in residential rehabilitation
assistance was distributed.
• Business Assistance: 79 businesses were assisted with either Jumpstart Business funds
or Business Rental Assistance Program funds. Approximately $2.3 in business
assistance has been distributed.
• Single Family New Construction: 103 owner - occupied affordable housing units have
been constructed and sold. The City expects to assist 38 additional properties through
this program. Approximately $4.4 million has been expended for down payment
assistance and an additional $1.6 million will be expended by the end of FY14.
• Infrastructure: CDBG Public Infrastructure funding, management, and monitoring is
being provided for the Wastewater Treatment Facility relocation, Rocky Shore Lift
Station project, construction of the East Side Levee and West Side Levee projects, and
flood proofing protection of the water well heads at the Water Treatment Facility site.
Two temporary Associate Planners that were added after the 2008 flood to manage these flood
recovery programs. These two positions are being eliminated in the fiscal year 2015 budget.

The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program is a
federally- funded initiative intended to spur deployment of the cleanest, most
economical and reliable energy efficiency and conservation technologies across
the country by providing funds to state and local governments for the
development, promotion, implementation, and management of energy efficiency
and conservation projects and /or programs.
The City of Iowa City was awarded $692,300 in November, 2009, and the City
use the funding to retrofit eight municipal buildings, advertise free residential
energy audits, and employ one intern to track municipal utility usage.
The fund is now being used as an inter -fund energy efficiency reimbursement
program. The facilities and funds that received improvements through the grant
(Phase 1) will be repaying the fund annually based on the expected savings from
the improvements. The first year of repayment is fiscal year 2014. Another
round of improvements (Phase 11) is budgeted for fiscal year 2015. A schedule of
the cost of improvements (net of rebates), the annual savings, and payback
period is presented is as follows:

UNIVERCITY NEIGHBORHOOD PARTNERSHIPS FUND
The UniverCity Neighborhood Partnership program is a collaboration between the City
and the University of Iowa. The program purchases rental homes in designated
neighborhoods, restores them to single - family homes, and then sells them to income -
qualifying families.
The property renovations are to be between $40,000 and $50,000, and the University
provides down payment assistance to University employees. Local lenders provide low -
interest loans for the purchase of properties. Homebuyers who are selected to purchase
one of the homes will pay the original acquisition price plus loan and carrying costs,
which may include interest for the time that the property is held in City ownership,
recording fee for construction loan mortgage, mowing and snow removal, utilities, real
estate taxes, and insurance. The cost of renovations will NOT be passed on to the
homebuyers so long as the homebuyers retain ownership of the property as their
primary residence for seven years. In addition, all homes must be maintained as owner-
occupied housing and affordable housing for twenty years.
The program began in fiscal year 2010 when the City initially received $1.25 million
through the State of Iowa I -JOBS program. The first 'round' of the UniverCity program
(using I -JOBS funds) renovated 26 homes. The program was moved to the General
Fund in fiscal year 2013 which included funds for four homes. The program was
expanded in fiscal year 2014 with funds for 12 homes (including 2 funded through the
Housing Authority) and was continued at that level again in fiscal year 2015. The 2015
budget information for this program can be found in the Community and Economic
Development section of the General Fund.

METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION (MPO)
OF JOHNSON COUNTY
The Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) of Johnson County Fund is a special
revenue fund that accounts for the operations of the MPO.
Funding for the MPO is derived from multiple sources including the City's General Fund
and the Road Use Tax Fund. Contributions are also received from the MPO's other
government members in Johnson County and from State of Iowa grants. Estimated
revenues and transfers -in in fiscal year 2014 are 4.9% higher than the actual fiscal year
2013 due to increased member contributions and state grant funds. Budgeted revenues
and transfers -in for fiscal year 2015 is expected to increase only very slightly over fiscal
year 2014.
Fund balance in the MPO fund is trending slightly downward from fiscal year 2012
through fiscal year 2015 dropping from $140,937 to $106,164. The fund balance as a
percentage of expenditures ranges from 21% in fiscal year 2012 to 15% in fiscal year
2015, however, is still higher than the 2011 fund balance coverage of 11% of
expenditures.
An adjustment to fund balance is presented in fiscal year 2013 for the City's change from
cash basis accounting to modified accrual basis of accounting. The downward
adjustment of $11,561 primarily represents wages and accounts payable at year -end.

METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION (MPO)
OF JOHNSON COUNTY OPERATIONS
It is the mission of the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) of Johnson County to fulfill
state and federal requirements necessary and beneficial to receive state and federal
transportation capital and operating funds; to conduct transportation and traffic studies related to
public and private development projects; to provide traffic data collection and analysis services,
prepare and administer transportation- related grants; and serve as a body for regional policy
and project- related discussions.
Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) designations are made by the Governor of the State
of Iowa. The MPO of Johnson County services the Iowa City Urbanized Area, which includes
Iowa City, Coralville, North Liberty, Tiffin, University Heights, and the University of Iowa. The
MPO coordinates planning efforts for all of Johnson County in: transportation planning, data
collection and analysis, and assistance to small communities. Member agencies outside of the
Iowa City Urbanized Area include Johnson County, Lone Tree, Oxford, Shueyville, Solon, and
Swisher.
The Transportation Planning Division fulfills federal requirements involving the transportation
planning process in order to maintain eligibility for grant programs through the Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) and Federal Highway Administration (FHA). The "3 -C" transportation
planning process consists of a comprehensive, coordinated and continuing planning effort for all
modes of transportation. Projects include short- and long -range transportation development
plans, corridor studies, intersection analyses, survey reports, and review of development
projects. The Transportation Planning Division also prepares state and federal grant
applications and fulfills the associated administration and regulation compliance.
In past years, the MPO has also facilitated discussion on regional issues including a fire
protection mutual aid agreement, joint animal control facilities, and a Joint Emergency
Communications Center.
Although funding is received from all MPO members, the MPO is organized under the City of
Iowa City. Through a 28(E) agreement, staff provides assistance to the other members of
MPOJC. This provides for cost - effective sharing of clerical, accounting, office space and vehicle
pool expenditures.

This fund accounts for annual employee benefit costs for the General Fund and a share
of Road Use Tax employees. Costs include health, dental, life and disability insurance;
employer -share FICA and IPERS retirement contributions; Chapter 411 Police and Fire
retirement contributions, accidental disability and on- the -job injury medical claims; and
workers compensation insurance.
Legal authority for the fund is established by two sections code. Iowa State Code
chapter 386.6.1 provides authority for municipalities to establish a fund for the purpose
of "accounting for pension and related employee benefit funds as provided by the City
Finance Committee ", while also providing the authority to levy a tax in the amount
necessary to meet these obligations. Chapter 545.4 of the Administrative Code of Iowa
provides the City Finance Committee's definition of eligible benefits and how they are
must be accounted for.
During the 2009 legislative session, a bill was passed amending section 411.16(5)(c)(2)
of the Iowa State Code. This amendment added a presumption for police and fire
personnel, that any infectious disease and /or cancer is presumed to have been
contracted during the performance of the duties, placing fiduciary responsibility for all
related medical claims upon the employer. As with other accidental disability and on-
the -job medical claims, cash reserves will be utilized to prevent a spike in the tax levy in
any given year from such claims. For this reason, cash balance is recommended to be
twenty -five percent (25 %) of total fund expenditures and transfers out. The fund's cash
balances versus expenditures including transfers out since fiscal year 2011 are as
follows:

' FY2011 and FY2012 ending fund balance is cash balance.
The City converted its budget basis in fiscal year 2014 to modified accrual from cash
basis. An adjustment to the fiscal year 2013 ending fund balance was made which
increased the Employee Benefits fund balance by $75,745. This increase primarily
reflects taxes receivable at year -end.

In 2003, City Council voted to support the development of affordable housing by
committing to the construction of 17 housing units in conjunction with The Housing
Fellowship. The City, under the management of the Iowa City Housing Authority, a
division of the Department of Housing and Inspection Services (HIS), owns and operates
seven (7) of the rental units. The remaining ten (10) units are owned and operated by
The Housing Fellowship. This fund accounts for the operation of the seven units owned
by the Housing Authority.
Funding for the project included an Economic Development Grant, CDBG funds, and
HOME funds. In addition, general obligation bonds were issued to finance a $410,000
loan to The Housing Fellowship and a $256,000 internal loan to the Housing Authority.
The internal loan payments are accounted for in this fund. Both of these loans are
payable to the City's Debt Service Fund. The outstanding balance owed to the Debt
Service fund from the Peninsula Apartments fund at June 30, 2014 will be $163,894.
Also as part of the financing structure, The Housing Fellowship issued an interest -only
loan to the Housing Authority for $210,784 for the Peninsula Apartments. The
repayment of the full principal balance will be due in a balloon payment in fiscal year
2025. These interest -only payments are accounted for in this fund.
Revenue: Rental income is projected at $60,559 in FY2015, an increase of 2.8% from
the estimated FY2014 total.
Fund Balance: The FY2015 ending fund balance is projected at $84,513. Cash
balance will be allowed to increase until reaching $210,784. This is the amount of a
lump sum payment which is due in FY2025 as part of the original financing for this
project.

TAX INCREMENT FINANCING FUNDS
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Districts have been established in various locations in
Iowa City to encourage economic development. TIF revenues are used to repay debt
incurred for specific projects and to pay property tax rebates on increased valuation per
development- specific agreements within the districts. As TIF agreements expire and /or
their legal requirements are satisfied, tax revenue generated by the incremental
valuation (increase in property values for the district since it was established) is
distributed to all taxing authorities. The objective of Iowa City's TIF capacity is to provide
gap financing for development projects which meet the adopted goals and criteria of the
respective TIF district.
The City has established twelve TIF districts. The table below presents debt that has
been certified against the City's TIF districts and their respective collections to repay
those debts. Not presented in the budget are the Industrial Park Road and the Camp
Cardinal urban renewal areas; these areas have no activity to present.

GENERAL REHABILITATION AND IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
(GRIP) FUND
The General Rehabilitation and Improvement (GRIP) program offers low- interest loans
to income - qualifying individuals (20 year term) for home improvement projects. Homes
must be owner - occupied with enough equity to secure a loan. A similar program was
considered successful in 2001 (TARP — Targeted Area Rehabilitation Program). The
current program was recommended by the Housing and Community Development
Commission and authorized by Council resolution April 29, 2008.
GRIP was initially financed annually with $200,000 of General Obligation bonds. The
program was transferred to the General Fund in fiscal year 2013 and is now being
funded with general property tax revenue. The 2015 budget information for this program
can be found in the Community and Economic Development section of the General
Fund.

DOWNTOWN SELF - SUPPORTED MUNICIPAL IMPROVEMENT
DISTRICT (SSMID)
In fiscal year 2013, the City in conjunction with Iowa City downtown businesses created
a Self- Supporting Municipal Improvement District as allowed under Iowa property tax
code in downtown Iowa City.
The City levies a property tax of $2.00 per $1,000 of taxable valuable on property that is
within the boundaries of the downtown district. The taxes that are collected are then
remitted to the Iowa City Downtown District (ICDD) which uses the funds to promote and
enhance the downtown district. In addition to the property tax funds, the ICDD receives
annual assistance of $100,000 from the University of Iowa. Below is a map of the
improvement district:
All of the funds received by the City through the SSMID property tax levy are remitted to
the ICDD, therefore the fund does not maintain a fund balance. The actual taxes collected
in fiscal year 2013 were $277,672. The estimated collections in fiscal year 2014 total
$275,320, and the budgeted collections in fiscal year 2015 are $296,141 including the
State back-fill for commercial property taxes.

DEBT SERVICE
Debt Service Fund
IQA:1�1AZINIy:8to] II]
This fund accounts for annual principal and interest payments due on general obligation
and taxable urban renewal revenue debt of the City. Funding is provided by the debt
service property tax levy, tax increment financing, transfers from Water Operations, and
loan repayments.
Chapter 384.4 of the Iowa State Code provides legal authority for a city to establish a
debt service fund and certify taxes to be levied in the amount necessary to pay for the
principal and interest on general obligation bonds issued by the city.
The debt service levy for FY2015 is $4.13 per $1,000 in valuation. Future general
obligation bond issues are estimated at $9.35 million in FY2015, $12.3 million in FY2016
and $10.8 million in FY2017.
Annual principal and interest payments as of June 30, 2014 are as follows:

City's Debt Policies
There are currently two benchmarks used by the City of Iowa City to evaluate its
financial position concerning its debt: the 5% statutory debt limit and the internal
restriction on the debt service levy of 30% of the City's total levy.
Statutory limitations which govern the issuance of debt in Iowa include Article XI Section
3 of the state constitution, entitled "Indebtedness of Political or Municipal Corporations."
Language in this section restricts the level of indebtedness for Iowa municipalities to five
percent (5 %) of "the value of ...taxable property within such county or corporation." This
is commonly referred to as the "debt ceiling or debt limit."
The graph below compares Iowa City's outstanding general obligation (G.O.) debt with
the statutory debt limit. Total valuations for Iowa City for FY2015 are approximately
$4.83 billion. The debt limit, or five percent (5 %) of this amount, is about $241.3 million.
Outstanding G.O. debt at June 30, 2015, totals $64.42 million, which is 26.7% of the
debt limit and 1.3% of total valuations. When compared with the increase in taxable
property valuations and the debt limit, Iowa City's general obligation outstanding debt
has been on a gradual declining trend since FY2011.

This City's internal fiscal policy, which limits its ability to levy taxes for repayment of debt,
specifically states that "debt service levy shall not exceed 30% of the city levy in any one
fiscal year."
Iowa City's internal fiscal policy was revised in April 2010, upon recommendation of the
Finance Director to specify that the "debt service levy shall not exceed 30% of the City
levy in any one fiscal year." The following chart shows the debt service levy as a
percentage of the city levy rate for FY2008 through FY2017. Fiscal years 2016 & 2017

The Parking fund accounts for the activities of the City's parking operations. The parking
enterprise fund is a fully self- sustaining business -like activity. Revenues are primarily derived
from parking meter revenue, parking ramp revenue, and parking fines.
In fiscal year 2014, the Parking operations implemented a new parking revenue structure. The
new structure includes an increase in on- street parking rates and parking fines, but institutes a
new "first- hour - free" program in the parking garages. The structure of this program is intended
to raise the usage rate of the City's parking garages and has been endorsed by the Iowa City
Downtown District (ICDD). The effect will be to lower parking ramp revenue, but raise parking
meter and parking fine revenue.
The Parking fund's unassigned fund balance on June 30, 2013 was $4.76 million, a 8.8%
decrease from the FY12. In FY13, an accounting adjustment was also recorded for the change
in accounting basis from cash to modified accrual. This resulted in a decrease to fund balance
of $172,945. The decrease was primarily due to accounts and contracts payable. FY14 year-
end unassigned fund balance is estimated to drop 12.8 %. These decreases are due to an
increase in capital project funding. In FY15, the unassigned fund balance is estimated to
increase 10.1 %to $4.6 million.

The Parking Facility and Enforcement Automation capital project began during fiscal year 2012.
The project involves the automation of operations in the parking decks and the upgrade of
parking meters on street to a smart meter system. Additional pay on foot and pay in lane
equipment will be placed in Capitol St., Dubuque St., and Tower Place facilities. The on- street
parking meters will be upgraded to allow credit card payment and pay by cell options. This will
create the ability to push real -time parking data to our customers related to parking availability
on street. This will allow for better access and more convenient payment options for our
customers while enhancing operational efficiencies. The total project cost is approximately $2.3
million and is being funded entirely from parking revenues. The Parking fund transferred $1.4
million towards this project in fiscal years 2012 and 2013. $1,057,221 is budgeted to be
�if7
transferred towards this project in FY2014. This project will be fully completed by fiscal year
2015, and the impact on the operating budget will be more determinable at that time.
Estimated restricted fund balance at June 30, 2015 is $1.68 million. Restricted fund balance
represents $1.55 million in funds held in accordance with parking revenue bond provisions, and
$134,371 in parking impact fees.
A parking facility impact fee, which deals with off - street parking requirements, is required for
residential development in most of the Near Southside Neighborhood. The Near Southside is
bound by Burlington Street to the north, Madison Street to the west, Gilbert Street to the east,
and the Iowa Interstate Railway main -line to the south. The revenues from the impact fee are
used by the City to provide parking facilities in the Near Southside. A formula is used to
determine the amount of required off - street parking and the amount of required parking impact
fee. The Department of Housing and Inspection Services collects the fee, which may be paid in
three installments, with the first installment due before the certificate of occupancy is issued.
Revenue:
FY15 revenue is estimated to increase 8.1 % when compared to FY14 estimated revenue. This
increase is anticipated due to the change in the parking rate structure. Parking service charges
are approximately 89% of fund revenues and parking fines are about 9 %.

Financial Highlights:
Services expenditures increased in Parking Administration by $117,594 or 19.2% primarily due
to an increase in credit card charges from the new parking meter system. Parking charge
revenue in the On- Street Operations is budgeted to increase by $225,782 or 17% due to the
change in the parking structure and from taking credit card payments at the meter. Services
expenditures are budgeted to increase by 19.6% for the On- Street Operations and by 12.3% in
the Parking Ramp Operations primarily due to the software fees associated with the new
parking meter system. Capital outlay for On- Street Parking was added for $64,500 including
$44,000 for electrical vehicle stations and $10,500 for a bike sharing program with the
University of Iowa.

Transit enterprise fund utilizes user fees, property taxes, and State and Federal funding to
provide transportation services throughout the City including para- transit services. These
activities were transferred from the General fund to the enterprise fund in fiscal year 2013.
With the FY13 budget, Transit operations were transitioned to an enterprise fund. Fund balance
and other trends will continue develop. In fiscal years 2011 and 2012, the transit operations
were within the General Fund. An adjustment to fund balance was also made in FY13 for the
change in accounting method from cash basis to accrual basis. This resulted in a downward
adjustment of $456,213 in fund balance. This decrease was a result of accounts and contracts
payable at year -end. The FY14 projected fund balance is estimated as 16.9% lower than FY13.
For FY15, the unassigned fund balance is estimated to increase from the FY14 revised budget
by 19.9 %. Assigned fund balance is for bus replacement reserves.

An inter -fund loan was made in fiscal year 2006 from the Landfill fund to the Transit operations
for the construction of a day care center at the Court Street Transportation Facility. The loan
was a 10 year loan for 513,181. A loan payment transfer is budgeted in FY15 for $56,388 to the
Landfill fund. The loan will be fully repaid in fiscal year 2016.
Revenue:
The Transit fund is funded through several revenue sources:
• Federal Operating Assistance: Based on an MPOJC formula, these funds
are distributed annually between Cambus, Coralville Transit, and Iowa City
Transit. State Operating Assistance: Job Access and Reverse Commute
Program (JARC), is a Federally- funded, application -based grant program,
with annual allocations. This is 34.7% of FY15 budgeted revenue.
Transit Property Tax Levy: Iowa State Code chapter 384.12.10 provides the
legal authority for municipalities to levy additional taxes, including "a tax for
the operation and maintenance of a municipal transit system..." Iowa City
01-17
transit property tax levy is $.95 per thousand of valuation. These property tax
funds are collected in the General fund and transferred to the Transit fund.
• Fares: Fares amount to 32% of the Transit fund revenue. Fare increases
were last implemented during fiscal year 2013.
• Court Street Transportation Parking and Rent Revenues: These revenues
include all hourly ($1.00 per hour after the first hour) and permit ($80 per
month) parking as well as rent from the commercial properties.
• Other Revenue: In addition to fare increases, the Transit fund receives
revenue from advertising and other miscellaneous sources.
FY15 revenue is projected to remain flat from the FY14 revised revenue estimates. The
budget estimates a greater percentage of the Transit revenue to come from the Federal
operating subsidy (9% increase) in FY15 and a slightly lower percentage (2% decrease)
from transit fees compared to FY14.

The Transit Division is a self - supporting enterprise fund that provides fixed -route and paratransit
bus services as well as operating the Court Street Transportation Center. The division is
committed to providing safe, courteous, and quality transportation to the citizens and visitors of
Iowa City as well as the City of University Heights. The division's budget is organized into four
activities:
Transit Administration
Transit Administration personnel consists of two Operations Supervisors, a 0.5 FTE
Customer Service Representative, and half of the Transportation Services Director and
Associate Director positions. Administration oversees the operation of:
Mass Transit Operations (fixed -route and paratransit services)
Iowa City Transit fixed route operations include 19 routes during weekday peak service
within the corporate limits of Iowa City and University Heights. Fixed route bus service is
operated with a 27 bus fleet, Monday - Friday from 5:45 am - 11:20 pm, Saturday from
5:45 am - 7:40 pm. During peak hours, most routes operate on 30 minute headways
while providing hourly service during off -peak and Saturdays. Complimentary paratransit
service is provided mirroring the hours of operation of the fixed route service. These
services are contracted through an agreement with Johnson County SEATS with
vehicles provided by the City of Iowa City.
Fleet Maintenance
Iowa City Transit maintains a fleet of 27 40 ft. heavy duty buses and 10 paratransit
buses, all of which are ADA accessible.
Court Street Transportation Center
In addition to operating the public transit services, Iowa City Transit also operates the
Court Street Transportation Center. This multi -use facility houses a 600 space parking
facility and four commercial properties. This facility was FTA funded resulting in all
revenues being directed to the transit fund.
HIGHLIGHTS
• Provided 1,879,594 passenger trips in FY13
• Provided service covering 712,000 miles and 54,500 hours
• Contracted paratransit service provided 101,700 passenger trips in FY13
• Joint project with Coralville Transit to implement new fare collection system utilizing
50% grant funds
0.1
Recent Accomplishments:
• Purchased 1 new 20 passenger Light
Duty bus utilizing 80% FTA funding.
Received grant funding for replacement
of 4 Light Duty buses to replace aging
para- transit vehicles.
• Continuing partnership with University of
Iowa - Cambus and Coralville Transit,
began design of automated trip planner
system.
• Expanded and restructured Eastside
Loop route to make more efficient.
• Completed negotiations of a five year
28E Agreement with Johnson County to
provide para- transit services.
• Installed access and revenue control
equipment at the Court Street
Transportation Center, which allowed us
to offer "first hour free ".
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• Property tax reform will impact our
transit levy funds which currently are
$2.9 million annually.
• The current transit maintenance and
storage facility is located on a former
uncontrolled dump site which is also a
highly desirable location for
development. Relocation of this facility
continues to be a priority for the
department but funding this facility may
be a challenge due to the decrease in
transit capital funding. Working with
MPOJC to develop planning documents.
• Increase in cost of para- transit services.
Some of this has been offset by rate
increases and service cuts.
Service Level Changes for FY 2015:
• The SEATS para- transit service will have service cuts as a result of reduced funding from
Johnson County. This will be coupled with an increase in fees for this same service and an
increase in maintenance costs as the City takes over the para- transit fleet maintenance from
the County.
Financial Highlights:
Services expenditures in Mass Transit Administration increased by 36.3% or $44,686 primarily
due to an increase in insurance costs. Personnel expenditures decreased by $82,513 or 22.9%
primarily due to staff turnover.
Supplies expenditures in the Fleet Maintenance activity increased by $161,279 or 17.4% due to
an increase in the price of diesel fuel and due to a budget estimate of $60,000 for the cost of
repair and maintenance supplies for the para- transit bus fleet.

The Wastewater Treatment fund accounts for the business -like operations of the City's
wastewater /sewer utility. The wastewater utility operates the City's two waste treatment plants,
the sanitary sewer collection system, and the wastewater monitoring operations. The
Wastewater fund is primarily supported through user fees.
The wastewater operations are currently undergoing a major transformation. The City is
currently completing expansion of the South Wastewater Plant and relocating the North
Wastewater Treatment Plant operations into the South Plant. The project estimate is $55
million, with funding of $41.4 million from state and federal grants, $8.6 million from Local
Option Sales Tax revenue, and $5 million from Wastewater user fees. This project has spanned
several years and is scheduled for completion in FY15. Closure and removal of the North
Treatment Plant is planned following the completion of the south plant expansion.
Reconstruction of the North River Corridor Trunk Sewer is scheduled for FY2015 -2016 and is to
be constructed in conjunction with the Gateway project. It will replace two existing sewers with
a single sewer the will be sized to the existing drainage area plus 5,700 acres of the Rapid
Creek watershed north of I -80. The existing sewers were constructed in 1983 and 1936. Total
project estimate is for $5.1 million and is to be funded from Wastewater user fees. The fiscal
year 2015 and 2016 budgets each include a transfer of $2 million for this project.

$14.1 million. The increase is primarily due to an upward adjustment for the change in
accounting method from cash basis to modified accrual basis. The adjustment primarily
represents sewer fees receivable at year end. Restricted cash balance was approximately $10
million at the end of fiscal year 2013. These funds are restricted in accordance with revenue
bond covenants.
iii?
FY14 year -end unassigned fund balance is estimated to drop 5.2% from FY13, and FY15 year-
end balance is estimated to fall another 6.3 %. These decreases are primarily due to the
continuation of major capital project expenditures.
Bond covenant requirements are monitored on an accrual basis and reported in the City's
Consolidated Annual Financial Report. Restricted cash balance is expected to decrease to
$9.86 million in fiscal year 2015.
Revenues:
Approximately 97% of Wastewater operations are funded through charges for services.
Wastewater Operations are funded by sewer user fees, per the following schedule:
Minimum Monthly Charge (includes the first 100 cu. ft. used) $8.15
Each Additional 100 cu. ft. $3.99

Overall, the FY15 budgeted revenue is estimated at 2.2% higher than the FY14 estimate. The
increase stems primarily from the increase in revenue in FY13 actual revenue due to drought
conditions. No changes are proposed in the FY15 budget to the City's sewer rate structure.

The Iowa City Wastewater division exists in order to economically ensure the public health and
safety of the citizens of Iowa City and locally protect the Iowa River as a water resource for the
people of Iowa. The division will achieve the mission by providing proper care, operation, and
maintenance of City wastewater and storm water collection systems, treatment plants, and the
local environment.
Wastewater Treatment processes an average of 9.7 million gallons of wastewater per day. Staff
members measure and report 120 different tests per month to the Iowa Department of Natural
Resources (DNR) for both influent waste and treated effluent.
Other major work elements for this division include sewer main repairs, preventative
maintenance, and 24/7 response to emergency sewer calls. Staffing is seven days a week for
operations staff. Administrative, lab, and maintenance staff are on -site five days a week. The
division's budget is organized into five activities:
Wastewater Administration
Wastewater Administration personnel consists of 0.5 FTE Wastewater Superintendent,
1.0 FTE Assistant Superintendent, and 0.5 FTE Senior Clerk. Administration oversees
the operation of:
Wastewater Treatment Plant Operations
The Wastewater division operates and maintains only one treatment plant now. The
South Plant, located at 4366 Napoleon St. SE, was expanded in 2013 to accommodate
more stringent water quality standards and future growth in residential and industrial
customers. The North Plant, in service for 79 years, has been decommissioned.
Wastewater Collection Systems
The Wastewater division maintains 300 miles of sanitary sewer. The division also
operates and maintains 18 lift stations throughout the City. Wastewater lift stations are
facilities designed to move wastewater from lower to higher elevation, particularly where
the elevation of the source is not sufficient for gravity flow and /or when the use of gravity
conveyance will result in excessive excavation depths and high sewer construction
costs.
Wastewater Debt Service
Wastewater debt service consists of principal and interest payments on wastewater
revenue bonds, which are repaid with wastewater revenue.
MA
HIGHLIGHTS
• The total treatment capacity for both City plants is 24 million gallons /day under
average conditions.
• Treatment Plant operations accomplish 95.5% removal of CBOD, suspended solids,
and ammonia nitrogen —the key pollutants required to be monitored.
• Preventive maintenance jetting of the sewer collection system covers 15% per year
and video inspection covers 5% per year of the 300 miles of public sewer.
• Sewer emergency call response takes place within 30 minutes, 24 hours per day.
Recent Accomplishments:
• The decommissioning of the North
Wastewater Treatment plant has
consolidated operations at the South
Plant, with a potential for improved
efficiency and economic development
potential at the former plant location.
• The Wastewater division analyzes 6,376
required samples for compliance with
NPDES requirement, with 1 sample at
the South Plant exceeding limits in
CY13, a compliance rate of 99.9 %.
• 18 out 26 division Staff are certified
Treatment Plant Operators by the state
of Iowa. The staff collectively carries15
additional technical certifications.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• Completion and start -up of the
expanded facilities at the South Plant
will require compliance with new and
more stringent effluent limits.
• The North River Trunk Sewer
reconstruction will provide future
development capacity, improve the
sewer system reliability, and decrease
infiltration.
• Flooding in 2013 revealed a
compromised interceptor line along the
east bank of the Iowa River. Lining of
this section will decrease infiltration,
which will reduce pumping costs.
Added 25% of a Project Support Assistant position in Water Administration in FY2015 budget.
Service Level Changes for FY2016:
• North Treatment Plant will be decommissioned and flows will be directed to the expanded
South Treatment Plant.

Financial Highlights:
Services expenditures increased by $235,063 or 26.2% in the Wastewater Treatment Plant
operations due to the increase in electricity stemming from transferring the North Plant
operations to the South Plant. Supplies expenditures decreased by $108,353 or 18.8% in
FY2015 also due to the closure of the North Plant operations.
The Lift Stations activity was split from the Wastewater Collection Systems budget into its own
budget. The FY2015 budget for Lift Stations is $361,934 which includes capital outlay for
process instruments for $152,500. The Wastewater Collection Systems budget decreased by
$232,161 in FY2015.

The Water enterprise fund accounts the City's water utility operations including the
operation of a water production plant, water storage facilities, water distribution system,
water meter reading, and water quality monitoring. The business -like fund is primarily
supported through user fees.
The Water fund's unassigned fund balance at the close of FY13 was approximately $8.0
million. Though user fees are currently sufficient to cover annual operating costs, they
are insufficient to cover capital project expenditures. The budget presented includes a
5% rate increase for FY15 and another 5% rate increase for FY16. FY13 fund balance
includes an upward adjustment of $265,032 due to the change in accounting method
from cash basis to modified accrual basis. This increase primarily represents accrued
water fee revenues at year -end.

(1) FY14 and FY15 figures are estimates, FY1land FY12 are cash basis
FY14 year -end unassigned fund balance is estimated to fall 17.5% compared to FY13.
Despite the estimated rate increase, FY15 fund balance is expected to decrease another
16.7 %. The fund's fund balance has declined steadily since fiscal year 2010.
The Water fund will have an estimated $4.2 million in restricted fund balance at the end
of FY15 for revenue bond covenants.
Revenue: The Water Division is funded by water user fees, per the current schedule:

A flat 5% rate increase is being proposed for both fiscal year 2015 and 2016 for all
usage levels and meter sizes. The residential meter rate would increase from $6.41 per
month to $6.73 per month in FY15 and then to $7.07 in FY16.Approximately 98% of
Water operations are funded through charges for services. The estimated change in
revenues from FY14 to FY15 is a 10.2% increase, which is based on quantities used
during the previous drought year and the new, proposed rates. FY14 budgeted
revenues was based on revenues from FY12 which was a more normal year for
precipitation.
Use of Money & Property primarily consists of interest on investments.

The mission of the Water division is to efficiently produce and distribute high quality and
abundant quantity of potable water necessary for the residential, commercial, industrial, and
firefighting needs of the City while maintaining compliance with EPA drinking water regulations.
The Water division, as part of the Public Works Department, operates and maintains the potable
water system for the City of Iowa City and University Heights. 24/7 system operation is
maintained to provide regulatory approved quality, at satisfactory pressures, and in quantities
and rates of flow to satisfy all customer demands.
Iowa City's award - winning water exceeds all required standards set by the Environmental
Protection Agency, with over 200 water quality tests performed each day by professional staff to
ensure that quality standards are attained. Water quality data is available through the
Consumer Confidence Report that is released to the public annually. The division's budget is
organized into five activities:
Water Administration
Water Administration personnel consists of the Water Superintendent and Assistant
Superintendent. Administration oversees the operation of:
Water Treatment Plant Operations
Iowa City's state -of- the -art water treatment facility, located at 80 Stephen Atkins Drive,
has a 16.7 million gallon per day capacity.
Water Distribution System
The division operates and maintains 263 miles of water main and appurtenances that
date back to 1882. In FY12, in -house staff replaced 3,000 ft. of water main in the
distribution system.
Customer Service
Nearly 26,000 service accounts are billed monthly. The division recently created a
'critical customer' list for emergency communication during main breaks or planned shut
downs.
Public Information /Education
The Water division creates and delivers the Consumer Confidence Report to all
customers and updates the industrial water quality report for review on the City's
website. The division also generates informative inserts for the customers' water bills.
Water Debt Service
Water debt service consists of principal and interest payments on water revenue bonds,
which are repaid with water revenue.

HIGHLIGHTS
• Completion of an Aquifer Storage and Recovery study that will allow treated water to be
stored in the Jordan aquifer during low demand periods and be used during high
demand periods. The benefit of retrofitting and using an existing facility will preclude the
water system from needing to construct additional source and treatment capacity for
future demands.
• A Student Operator Program, that was created in 2012 as a cooperative endeavor with
the University Of Iowa College Of Engineering, provides training and experience that is
beneficial for the Water Division and the students. The will be expanded in FY "15 by
adding two (2) additional students to perform weekend operations and summer
distribution work.
• Continuation of inspection, repair and replacement of distribution system assets, i.e.
hydrants, valves, and water main, by distribution staff has been supported by the
introduction of asset management software and hardware.
• Water main breaks increased due to drought conditions in FY '14 will continue in FY '15
as drought conditions continue.
Recent Accomplishments
• Competed water distribution pressure
zone study
• Drinking water compliance rate is 100 %.
• Repaired 94 water main breaks in FY13
up from 57 in FY12
• City added 8,565 feet of water main in
FY13
• Automated Water Meter Reading (AMR)
system to be completed in FY16.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges
• Transition to distribution infrastructure
appurtenance predictive and
preventative repair and /or replacement.
Hydrants, valves, and system needs will
be evaluated to address the aging
infrastructure components.
• Replace and repair aging infrastructure
in a timely manner
• Planning and implementation of
pressure zones as the City water
system continues to grow.

Water service charges in Water Administration are higher by 11.1% due to a proposed rate
increase of 5% in FY2015 and an increase in user activity stemming from the droubt during
FY2013. Services expenditures also increased in the Water Administration activity due to an
increase in insurance reserve payments and administrative charges. There is $206,500
budgeted in FY2015 under the Water Distribution System for water main repairs that is in
addition -to the capital improvement project transfers.

The Refuse Collection enterprise fund accounts for the activities of the City's curbside pickup
program for household waste, yard waste, bulky items, and appliances. The Refuse Collection
fund is operated as a business and is primarily supported by user fees.
The Refuse Collection unassigned fund balance on June 30, 2013 was $719,427, a 47.6%
increase from fiscal year 2012. The increase primarily stems from an adjustment upward of
$272,859 due to the change in accounting methodology from cash basis to modified accrual
basis. The increase primarily represents refuse collection fees receivable at year end.

Iowa City's refuse collection programs are designed to protect the health safety and welfare of
our community by providing prompt and safe curbside collection of waste materials. Our
programs are designed around sustainable principles that promote recycling and ensure that
each specific category of waste is disposed of properly.
Refuse, Recycling, and Yard Waste Collection is administered by the Solid Waste staff within
the Streets Division. Crews provide curbside pickup of household waste, recycling, yard waste,
bulky items, and appliances to 15,177 households on a weekly basis in Iowa City. Services are
provided to residential properties ranging from one to four units. In addition, Solid Waste crews
provide elderly and handicap carryout service to residents whom document need. The Refuse
Collection budget is organized into five activities:
Refuse Collection Administration
Refuse Collection Administration personnel consists of 0.35 FTE Streets /Solid Waste
Superintendent, an Assistant Superintendent, and a Solid Waste Clerk. Administration
oversees the operation of:
Refuse Collection Operations
The city is divided into 5 sectors for garbage pickup. Visit www.icgov.org or call (319)-
356 -5180 for pickup schedules. Tipper carts have now been delivered to 14,634 Iowa
City residents, making the collection process safer and more efficient. The conversion to
tipper carts has been a 10 year process.
Yard Waste Collection
Yard waste such as grass, leaves and garden residue can be bagged in special Iowa
City yard waste bags imprinted with the City logo. The bags are available for purchase at
participating Iowa City grocery, hardware and general merchandise stores, and at the
Iowa City City Hall Cashier (410 E. Washington St.). Residents may also purchase
annual yard waste stickers. This sticker is to be placed on a container no larger than 35
gallons that you supply. These stickers are effective beginning April 1 and are valid for
one year.
Curbside Recycling Collection
A recycling container is provided for each single - family residence, and each unit of
multiple dwelling of 4 units or fewer.
:[171
White Goods /Bulky Items
Customers may call the Solid Waste Division (319) 356 -5180 to schedule special item
collection; additional fees apply. Items available for pickup include furniture, electronics,

The Landfill enterprise fund accounts for the business -like operations of the City's municipal
landfill and recycling operations. The Landfill fund is primarily supported user fees.
The Landfill fund's total fund balance on June 30, 2013 was $24.6 million, a 10.2% increase
from the FY12 year -end fund balance. Of the $24.6 million, $18.5 million was restricted in use
per Iowa State code for site closure, post closure, and environmental protection costs and
reserved for landfill cell replacement. The fund balance increase was primarily due to the early
repayment of inter -fund loan balances by other City funds. Also in FY13, an adjustment was
made for the conversion from the cash basis method of accounting to the modified accrual
basis. This resulted in an adjustment of fund balance upward by $652,943. The increase was
primarily due to the insurance recovery receivable pertaining to the landfill fire in 2012.

(1) FY14 and FY15 figures are estimates, FY1land FY12 are cash basis
FY14 unassigned fund balance of $4,330,078 is a 29.2% decrease over the FY13 unassigned
fund balance. In FY15, the unassigned fund balance is estimated to decrease another
$589,310 or 13.61 %. These reductions in unassigned fund balance are primarily attributed to
the transfer of resources into the replacement and closure /post - closure reserves.
State law requires landfill fund balance restrictions as follows:
• Financial Assurance for Closure and Post - Closure: The State of Iowa requires that the
owner /operator of a landfill set aside funds to provide for the costs associated with closing
the landfill and ongoing maintenance of the closed landfill site. The City is mandated to
provide for the future costs associated with closing the landfill in a manner that satisfies
State environmental and safety requirements, including minimizing infiltration and erosion;
and sufficient to provide for the costs related to post - closure requirements.
:11M
• Solid Waste Surcharge Reserve: Landfill operators are also required to retain a portion of
user fees for environmental protection, waste reduction, and recycling programs. The Solid
Waste Surcharge Reserve in the Landfill fund balance is reserved for these uses and is not
accessible for other City projects.
The Landfill has estimated restricted fund balances of $19.76 million at the end of FY14.
The Landfill fund has several outstanding inter -fund loans. Over the past two years, the Landfill
has called most of its inter -fund loans due to the fire event in the FY09 cell. The following loans
remain outstanding at the end of fiscal year 2014:

significantly reducing reliance on the Landfill. The Landfill will operate in accordance with all
rules and regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Iowa Department of
Natural Resources.
The Iowa City Landfill and Recycling Center is managed by the Wastewater Division. The
Landfill serves Johnson County, Kalona and Riverside. Trash is landfilled according to stringent
federal and state regulations to ensure that environmental protection is in place.
The Iowa Waste Reduction and Recycling Act was legislated in 1989 and banned several items
from Iowa landfills, including yard waste, tires, lead acid batteries, appliances, and oil. This
initiated recycling programs for these items that are still in place today. The Landfill's budget is
organized into five activities:
Landfill Administration
Landfill Administration personnel consists of 0.50 FTE Wastewater /Landfill
Superintendent, 1.0 FTE Assistant Superintendent, and 0.50 FTE Senior Clerk.
Administration oversees the operation of:
Landfill Operations
The landfill takes in about 125,000 tons of trash and collects hundreds of groundwater
and stormwater samples to evaluate environmental compliance annually. The landfill
has been at its current location at 3900 Hebl Avenue since 1971. In total, the landfill is
about 400 acres in size; about half which contains buried trash. Remaining land is used
as a buffer for surrounding properties and wetlands.
The Eastside Recycling Center was completed in FY2012 and is located at 2401 Scott
Boulevard. Facilities include an environmental education building, bulk water and
concrete washout stations, and drop -off areas for waste oil and electronic items. The
complex also provides space for the Furniture Project and Salvage Barn.
In an effort to meet the State of Iowa's waste reduction goals, Iowa City has
implemented garbage and recycling programs to encourage waste reduction. These
programs are designed to promote recycling and re -use of materials rather than disposal
of these materials into the City's landfill.
Landfill Assurance Reserves for Closure and Post - Closure
Assurance Reserves account for state - mandated set - asides for costs associated with
closing the landfill and ongoing maintenance of the closed landfill site in accordance with
Iowa Department of Natural Resources environmental requirements.
:1M
Solid Waste Surcharge Reserve
This activity accounts for the portion of user fees required by state law to be set aside for
environmental protection, waste reduction, and recycling programs.
• Iowa City Community Compost is produced from local yard waste and food waste. The
annual production of nearly 4000 tons is often "sold out ".
• The household hazardous waste facility accepts material from 3,000 households and small
businesses annually, diverting around 60,000 pounds of hazardous waste from the landfill.
• Landfill recycling programs continue to expand:
• Five drop -off sites collect about 500 tons of materials annually.
• Rummage in the Ramp diverts about 25 tons of waste each year, supporting around 30
local non - profit groups with the proceeds.
• The electronic waste recycling program has been expanded to the East Side Recycling
Center.
Recent Accomplishments:
• The landfill was accepted as a DNR
Environmental Management System,
setting goals for continuous progress in
designated environmental program
areas.
• The East Side Recycling Center opened
in April 2012. City staff hosts events to
educate and promote environmental
goals to the community.
• Construction was completed on the
reconstruction of the cell that was
destroyed by fire in 2012 and insurance
settlement was finalized.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• State's definition of recycling facilities
could possibly jeopardize control of
waste flow to the landfill.
• To develop a recycling program for
multi - family residences.
• Drawing public and private
organizations toward the adoption and
implementation of sustainability as a
guiding principle for community wide
activities.
Service Level Changes for FY2016:
• No service levels changes are planned.

Financial Highlights:
Services expenditures in the Landfill Administration are budgeted to decrease by $232,197 or
33.3% and services expenditures in the Landfill Operations are budgeted to decrease by
$171,092 or 7.4 %, primarily due to a decrease in engineering services of $300,000, a decrease
in administrative charges, and a decrease in contracted temporary labor.
GOALS, OBJECTIVES, and PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Strategic Plan Goal: Enhanced Communication and Marketing

The Airport fund accounts for the operations of the municipal airport operations. The Airport is
management like a business -like operation, however, is subsidized by the City's General fund.
The Airport fund's fund balance on June 30, 2013 was $298,497, a 55.9% decrease over the
FY2012 year -end fund balance. The decrease in fund balance was primarily the result of
transfers to the capital projects fund. An adjustment was made in FY13 for the change from
cash basis accounting to modified accrual basis of accounting. This resulted in a decrease in
fund balance of $14,399 primarily due to contracts and accounts payable.
In FY14, fund balance is estimated to increase to $347,331 or 16.36% and is then projected to
remain flat in FY15. The FY14 increase in fund balance is anticipated from the continued sale
of airport land for development.

The Airport currently has additional lots for sale in its commercial business park. The sale of
one lot was revised into the fiscal year 2014 revised budget. Seventy percent of each lot sale
goes towards repaying the Airport's inter -fund loans. The loan balances and payment amounts
listed above for the inter -fund loans have not been adjusted to reflect the potential principal
payments that may be made due to the sale of commercial lots anticipated in the revised fiscal
year 2014 budget.
Revenue:
For FY15, 92% of Airport fund revenue is provided through rentals of airport property. In
addition to the revenue presented in the chart below, the general fund will provide a subsidy to
the Airport in FY15. General fund property tax support for the Airport is budgeted to drop 5.4%
in FY15 from $72,342 to $68,415.

The Storm Water Management enterprise fund accounts for the activities of the City's storm
water utility. The Storm Water Management fund's fund balance on June 30, 2013 was
$773,102 a 4.1% increase from the previous year. In FY13, the ending fund balance was
adjusted upward by $77,172 for the change in accounting method from cash basis to modified
accrual basis. This increase primarily represents storm water fees receivable at year end.
FY14 fund balance is estimated to increase 44.5% over the previous year to $1,116,762. FY15
projected fund balance represents a 44.4% increase over the FY14 estimated year -end balance
at $1,613,130. This is due to increases in the storm water utility fees and a decrease in the
capital improvement fund transfer.
(1) FY14 and FY15 figures are estimates, FY1land FY12 are cash basis
Revenue:
Nearly 100% of the Storm Water fund's operations are funded through storm water utility
charges. Interest on investments and miscellaneous revenue comprise less than 0.2% of
Stormwater revenue.
Annual utility rate increases were recommended for FY12 -FY14. In FY14, the Equivalent
Residential Unit (ERU) increased from $3.00 /month to $3.50 /month. No rate increases are
proposed for FY15.

Expenditures:
FY15 adopted expenditures represent an 11.7% decrease from FY14 estimated expenditures.
The decrease is primarily attributed to decreases in intra -city chargebacks, and other service
expenditures. FY15 capital outlay includes $200,000 for storm sewer maintenance projects and
$40,000 for the drain tile program. 50% of a new Project Support Assistant was added to the
Storm Water budget in fiscal year 2015. This position is split between the Storm Water, Water,

The Iowa City Stormwater utility exists to provide safe, clean, and healthy waterways for our
community. We do this by using education, outreach, community involvement, volunteers,
capital projects, and enforcing our City's Ordinances that provide for and protect our
watersheds.
When it rains in Iowa City, water passes over roofs, streets, parking lots and other land surfaces
picking up pollutants such as oil, chemicals, pesticides and eroded soil along the way. Any
pollutant that is directed into the stormwater drainage system bypasses any treatment and flows
directly into our waterways and to those downstream from us. This creates hazards for people,
wildlife, and the environment. Protecting stormwater quality keeps our waterways healthy and
preserves wildlife habitat.
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is a federal program that
regulates stormwater discharge into waterways. To comply with the federal requirements, the
City of Iowa City received a permit to discharge stormwater and develop programs to reduce the
discharge of pollutants carried by stormwater into our local waterways.
The local Stormwater Management Program is administered by the Engineering division of the
Public Works Department. Revenue to support its mission is derived from monthly stormwater
utility fees collected from local residents and businesses.
:IM01�[�3:r��
• Volunteers logged 3,300 hours of service to clean up the City's watersheds, waterways,
wetlands, prairies, and other natural spaces in 2012
• The Iowa River Clean -Up drew 56 volunteers. Their efforts removed 8.6 tons of garbage
from the river, including 188 tires and 1,850 pounds of metal, all of which were recycled.

The Cable Television enterprise fund accounts for the City's cable television administration
and the City's media production unit. The fund's activities are primarily supported by City
franchise fees collected by the City's primary cable television operator, Mediacom. The
fund also accounts for the equipment replacement activities of the media production unit.
The Cable Television fund's total fund balance on June 30, 2013 was just over $1.76
million, a 10.5% increase over the previous year.
FY14 year -end total fund balance is estimated to be an 11.8% or $207,451 decrease
over FY13. In FY13, an adjustment was made to convert from the cash basis
accounting method to the modified accrual basis method. This change resulted in an
upward adjustment in fund balance of $56,487 primarily due to franchise fees that were
receivable at year end. The FY14 revised budget includes a transfer to the capital
projects fund for the City Council chambers video camera and remodel project of
$180,000. FY15 projected balance is expected to decrease 3.6 %.

The Housing Authority enterprise fund accounts for the public housing programs operated by
the Iowa City Housing Authority (ICHA) including the rental assistance programs and the City -
owned public housing units. These programs are primarily funded through Federal funds from
the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
The Housing Authority fund's total fund balance on June 30, 2013 was approximately $6.1
million, a 10.0% decrease from FY12 year -end fund balance. This decrease was also larger
due to an adjustment presented converting the accounting method from cash basis to modified
accrual basis. This adjustment was a decrease in fund balance of $331,983 in FY13 primarily
due to accounts and contracts payable. At the end of FY13, an estimated $2.81 million in fund
balance will be restricted for Housing Authority operations; subsidy payments to landlords;
maintenance and development of Public Housing units; and, development of affordable
homeownership opportunities. Restricted fund balance does not reflect further limitations and
restrictions on the use of housing funds placed by HUD that exists on the unassigned fund
balance. Fund balance history is as follows:

(1) FY14 and FY15 are estimates, FY11 & FY12 are cash basis.
Two voucher program positions were laid off during fiscal year 2014 due to sequestration cuts to
the Housing Voucher program administration revenues. Consideration regarding the future of
these positions will be determined based on the restoration of funding from the federal
government. FY14 estimated year -end fund balance is expected to remain steady with a 0.7%
increase over the FY13 estimated balance. FY15 projected fund balance also remains flat with
virtually no change from the FY14 fund balance.

To improve quality of life, the Iowa City Housing Authority acts as a community leader for
affordable housing, family self- sufficiency, and homeownership opportunities. We provide
information and education, housing assistance, and public and private partnership opportunities.
The Housing Authority is a division of the Department of Housing & Inspection Services
established in 1969 to administer housing assistance programs throughout its jurisdiction,
including all of Johnson County and portions of Iowa and Washington Counties.
Annually, the Housing Authority assists approximately 1,300 low- income families to acquire and
maintain affordable housing through rental and ownership programs. Rental assistance includes
the Housing Choice Voucher /Section 8 (HCV), Public Housing, and Veterans' Supportive
Housing (VASH) Programs. Homeownership opportunities exist under the Tenant -to -Owner
Program, Affordable Dream Homeownership Program, and the HCV Homeownership Program.
Participation in all programs requires the families meet federally established income guidelines.
The Housing Authority's budget is organized into three activities: Administration, Voucher
Programs, and Public Housing. The division also manages Peninsula Apartments units; a
description of this activity may be found in the Special Revenue Fund section of this document.
Housing Authority Administration
Housing Authority Administration personnel manage all of the housing programs. These
expenditures are fully allocated to the Voucher and Public Housing programs.
Voucher Programs
The Housing Authority works with over 400 owners/ landlords and administers 1250
HCV and VASH vouchers. These Owners /landlords receive approximately $6
million /year in rental subsidy paid on behalf of Housing Authority participants.
Public Housing
The City of Iowa City owns 81 public housing units; the Housing Authority serves as the
landlord and rents these units to eligible tenants. They are low- density units scattered
throughout Iowa City and were constructed to conform and blend into the existing
neighborhood architecture.
:LP]
HIGHLIGHTS
• The Housing Choice Voucher Program paid approximately $5.8 million in Housing
Assistance Payments to landlords /owners of rental properties in Johnson County in FY2013
(98% vouchers utilized)
• The Housing Authority paid over $298,098 to private sector Iowa City contractors for the
capital improvement, general maintenance, and repair of Public Housing properties in
FY2013
• Since 1998, 159 families have moved to homeownership with assistance from the Housing
Authority.
Recent Accomplishments:
• 1,600 housing assistance inspections
conducted for the Iowa City Housing
Authority
• In FY2013, maintained a 98% lease -up
rate for the HCV and VASH programs;
98% for Public Housing.
• Maintained a 100% lease -up rate for the
Peninsula Apartments.
Staffing:
Upcoming Challenges:
• Dispelling damaging myths regarding
Housing Authority programs and
participants
• Maintain lease -up rates of at least 98%
for the HCV, VASH, and Public Housing
programs in spite of sequestration
budget cuts.
• Continue efforts to ensure program
integrity by monitoring landlord /tenant
compliance with program
responsibilities.
• Continue to support homeownership
opportunities.
In FY2015 budget, Housing Program Assistant reduced from 5.0 FTE to 4.0 and Housing
Assistant reduced from 1.25 FTE to 0.25.
Financial Highlights:
Public Housing expenditures are up by $157,978 or 31 % and Housing Voucher program
expenditures are down by 11.2 %. Part of this reflects a change in Administration cost sharing
by shifting the split from 95% voucher /5% public housing to 78% voucher /22% public housing.
The most significant part of the decrease in Housing Voucher program expenditures, however,
is due to a budgeted decrease in landlord rent expenditures by $621,582 or 9.7 %. This is also
reflected in the budgeted decrease of Federal intergovernmental revenue.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS FUND
The Capital Improvement Projects fund accounts for the collection and disbursement of
funds related to capital improvements or significant capital equipment.
Capital projects involve construction, purchase, or renovation of city facilities or property.
They are generally non - recurring major improvements to the City's physical plant which
necessitate long -term financing and are permanent in nature. The funding sources for
these projects are generally not from operating funds but are instead from bond
proceeds, grants, donations, or other one -time sources of income.
The City annually updates and issues a five -year capital improvement program (CIP).
This program is the planning guide for the City's issuance of general obligation bonded
debt and for the construction and replacement of the City's buildings and infrastructure.
The City's total five -year for the 2014 -2018 capital improvement program is
$223,887,986. The current portion of the CIP is then adopted as part of the annual
operating budget.
Changes to the 2014 capital improvement program are amended into the fiscal year
2014 operating budget, and the 2015 projected capital improvement program is certified
as part of the 2015 operating budget. The 2014 capital projects fund budget also
includes totals for the carry forward of prior year projects that must be re- appropriated
with the State. These amounts being carried forward are not included in the current five -
year CIP. The revised capital improvement program expenditures for fiscal year 2014
are $85,455,521 while the appropriated budget including project carry forwards is
$92,256,292. The capital improvement fund expenditures for fiscal year 2015 are
$50,578,591.
Fund balance in the Capital Improvement Projects fund primarily represents unspent
bond proceeds. This fluctuates based on the timing of the issuance of the bonds and
the timing of the project expenditures. With the conversion from cash basis accounting
to modified accrual basis of accounting in fiscal year 2013, a conversion adjustment is
presented for a decrease in fund balance of $7,028,078. This adjustment primarily
represents unpaid contract progress payments and retainages. The estimated ending
fund balance for fiscal year 2015 is $12,254,110.

project is primarily related to the mitigation of future flood damage, however, potential savings could be in excess of $100,000.

EQUIPMENT FUND
The Equipment Fund is an internal service fund created to account for the City's fuel facility,
maintenance of the City's vehicle and equipment fleet, and the accumulation of funds for the
replacement of vehicles and equipment.
Internal customers and departments and other local governments are charged labor and parts
for the cost to repair vehicles and equipment by the City's fleet maintenance division. Those
charges are designed to cover the division's actual cost of service. Fuel has been charged at
actual cost, however, it will be adjusted in the future to recover the cost of replacing the fuel
facility.
The Equipment Fund also charges departments for the replacement cost of their vehicles and
equipment. These charges are calculated at the estimated replacement cost less the estimated
resale value of the piece of equipment. Purchases of new vehicles and equipment are
budgeted in the departmental budgets. When new equipment is added, the departments are
then charged by the reserve for their future replacement.
The graph below represents the Equipment Fund's actual and projected cash balances. While
the equipment fund's cash balance has been trending upward, nearly $2.5 million in
replacement expenditures are anticipated for FY15 and $1.9 million in FY16 which is projected
to change that trend. In addition, $790,000 of unassigned cash is expected to be transferred to
the capital projects fund in fiscal year 2015 for the relocation of the old vehicle wash bay to the
new public works facility location. The projected, unassigned fund balance at the end of fiscal
year 2015 is $1,381,844 which is a decrease of 39.2 %. An adjustment to fund balance is
presented in fiscal year 2013 for the conversion from cash basis accounting to modified accrual
basis. The adjustment was a reduction of $358,344 primarily representing outstanding accounts
payable at year end.

replaced:
In the City's five -year capital improvement program for fiscal year 2013, there was a project to
replace the existing fuel facility that has reached the end of its life cycle. The new fuel facility is
located at the South Gilbert public works site. The fuel facility replacement was funded from
General Obligation bonds; however, fuel charges were adjusted to accumulate funds for the
future replacement of the facility. The new facility will not have a noticeable operating impact on
the Equipment Replacement Reserve, but it will reduce the City's financial risk associated with
leaking underground fuel tanks.
The timing of the relocation of the remaining equipment maintenance and storage facilities to
the new public works facility location has not been determined at this time, but will be discussed
as part of future five -year capital improvement programs.

The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction
of assets; workplace accidents, errors and omissions; and natural disasters. During fiscal year
1988, the City established the Loss Reserve Fund, an internal service fund, to account for and
finance its uninsured risks of loss. Funds pay annual premiums to the Loss Reserve Fund
based on actuarial estimates of the amounts needed to pay prior and current -year claims and to
establish a reserve for catastrophic losses. Accumulated monies in the Loss Reserve Fund are
available to cover the self- insured retention amounts and any uninsured losses.
During the year ended June 30, 2014 the City purchased property, liability, and workers'
compensation insurance under the program that provides for a $100,000 self- insured retention
per occurrence on property losses, a $500,000 self- insured retention per occurrence on liability,
and a $500,000 self- insured retention on workers' compensation losses. Liability insurance
provides coverage for claims in excess of the aforementioned self- insured retention up to a
maximum of $21.0 million annual aggregate of losses paid. Settled claims have not exceeded
this commercial coverage in any of the past twenty four fiscal years.
The Housing Authority Fund is insured under a separate policy with the Assisted Housing Risk
Management Association. The remaining funds participate in the Loss Reserve Fund.
The fiscal year 2014 revised fund balance is $3.23 million which is 5.19% higher than the fiscal
year 2013 ending fund balance. This fund balance increase is projected due to an anticipated
reduction in damages in 2014 compared to the landfill fire damages that took place at the end of
fiscal year 2012 and the beginning of fiscal year 2013. The budgeted ending fund balance for
fiscal year 2015 is $3.13 million, which is lower than the 2014 revised fund balance by 3.01 %. Ir
fiscal year 2013, an adjustment is presented for the change from cash basis accounting to
modified accrual basis of accounting that increases the fund balance by $1,151,874. This
increase primarily reflects the insurance proceeds receivable from the landfill fire event.

The Information Technology Services (ITS) fund is an internal service fund that accounts for the
cost of providing computer and computer related services to the City's departments. Those
services include personal computer support and replacement, network and internet support,
fiber optic networking, file server management, telephone administration and support, and
computer programming and application support.
Internal customers are charged annual service fees depending on the number of devices they
use, how many users they have, how many phone sets they have, the number of hours spent
on special applications, and other factors. Internal customers are also responsible for budgeting
funds for new computer equipment, however, replacement costs are then recovered by the ITS
fund for the future replacement of that equipment.
The ITS fund has an estimated ending fund balance of $2.08 million at June 30, 2014. This is a
decrease of $715,738 or 25.6% from fiscal year 2013. Fund balance is expected to decline even
further during fiscal year 2015 by $176,710 or 8.5% to $1.91 million. The reduction in fund
balance is directly related to capital outlay in 2014 and 2015. In fiscal year 2013, an adjustment is
being presented for the conversion from cash basis accounting to modified accrual basis of
accounting as a reduction of fund balance of $42,782. This reduction primarily represents
outstanding accounts payable and contracts payable at year end.

The City maintains insurance reserves for permanent employees' health care coverage.
The health insurance plan is partially self- insured, with a stop -loss policy which provides
coverage for claims in excess of $125,000 per employee. Operating funds and
participating employees are charged premiums which are deposited into the Health
Insurance Reserve Fund. The City reimburses a health insurance provider for actual
medical costs incurred plus a claims processing/ administrative fee.
The State of Iowa requires all public entities which maintain a self- funded health
insurance plan file an annual certificate of compliance with the Iowa Insurance
Commissioner, along with an independent actuarial opinion and financial statement
which demonstrate that the plan continues to meet the requirements of Iowa Code
509A.14 -.15 as well as applicable provisions of the Iowa administrative code.
The City also provides dental coverage for permanent employees and maintains
insurance reserves for this purpose. The City's dental insurance plan is self- insured.
Operating funds and participating employees are charged premiums which are
deposited into the Health Insurance Reserve Fund. The City reimburses a dental
insurance provider for actual costs incurred plus a claims processing/ administrative fee.
Covered benefits are limited to $1,000 per eligible member.
FY2015 Budget Highlights: Health insurance premiums and administrative costs are
projected to remain flat in FY2015 due to a lower- than - average claims experience in
recent years and increased employee contributions in fiscal years 2014 — 2016. An
increase in employee contributions was negotiated as shown in the following table:

Note: The Unions bargained for different amounts in FY2011.
The fiscal year 2015 ending fund balance is estimated at $10.34 million. This is virtually
no change from the revised fiscal year 2014 ending fund balance or the actual fiscal year
2013 ending fund balance. An adjustment is presented for the change from cash basis
accounting to modified accrual basis of accounting in fiscal year 2013. This adjustment
is a reduction of fund balance of $106,426 that primarily represents unpaid health
insurance claims. Restricted /assigned fund balance represents the City's Net OPEB
Obligation. The City's Net OPEB obligation at June 30, 2013 was $3,305,626.

The City provides dental coverage for permanent employees and maintains insurance
reserves for this purpose. The City's dental insurance plan is self- insured. Operating
funds and participating employees are charged premiums which are deposited into the
Dental Insurance Reserve Fund. The City reimburses a dental insurance provider for
actual costs incurred plus a claims processing/ administrative fee. Covered benefits are
limited to $1,000 per eligible member.
The Dental Insurance Reserve's fund balance at the end of fiscal year 2014 is expected
to be $103,402 or $15,119 lower than the fiscal year 2013 ending fund balance. This is
a decrease of 12.76% percent. A decrease in fund balance is also expected for fiscal
year 2015 to $88,573 which is a reduction of $14,829 or 14.34 %. In fiscal years 2011
through 2013, the reserve's fund balance had grown from $71,213 to 118,521 due to
expenditure levels finishing below projections. In the fiscal year 2013 conversion from
cash basis accounting to modified accrual basis of accounting, an adjustment is
presented for a reduction in fund balance of $3,002. This adjustment primarily
represents unpaid dental claims.

Form of Government
The City has seven (7) Council members, who serve staggered, four -year terms. Four
(4) Council members are "at- large" and are nominated by all voters and elected by all
voters. Although the three (3) "district" Council members (Districts A, B, and C) are
nominated solely by voters within their districts and any primary is held only within the
district, they are elected by voters city -wide. Council elections are held in odd - numbered
calendar years. Council members select the Mayor from among themselves at their first
meeting of the calendar year after each city council election. The Mayor is a voting
member of the council and has no veto power. The Mayor is the official representative of
the City, presiding officer of the Council and its policy spokesperson. The Council
appoints a City Manager, City Attorney and City Clerk. The City Council passes
legislation and establishes policies for the City.
The City Manager is the chief administrative officer for the City and is appointed by the

facilities. The City Manager prepares a proposed annual budget and submits it to the
City Council for consideration and final approval consistent with State law, along with
presenting recommendations and programs to the City Council.
The City Attorney is appointed by the City Council and works at the direction of the City
Council. The City Attorney supervises the City Attorney's Office, including four Assistant
City Attorneys. In addition, the City Attorney acts as Chief Legal Counsel to the City
Council, City Manager, the various City departments and staff, and most City
commissions, committees and boards. The City Attorney also reviews and approves
proposed City ordinances, resolutions, contracts, and other legal documents; oversees
property acquisition needed for public improvements; prepares legal opinions for Council
and City staff; and represents the City in litigation in which the City is involved, including
violations of City ordinances.
The City Clerk is appointed by the City Council, reports directly to the Council and
attends all City Council meetings. The City Clerk is charged with custody of deeds,
contracts and abstracts. The Clerk's office is responsible for the keeping of all
ordinances, resolutions, minutes and the Iowa City City Code. The office publishes

2015 Iowa City Police Department Statistics
Why We Exist: The mission of the Iowa City Police Department is to protect the rights of all
persons within its jurisdiction to be free from crime, to be secure in their possessions, and to
live in peace. By pursuing the goals of education, prevention and enforcement, it is the
primary objective of the Iowa City Police Department to pursue the ideal of a community free
from crime and disorder in a fair, responsive, collaborative and professional manner.
General Police Data Discrepancies
Performing a comparative analysis between local jurisdictions is an imperfect process. Data are
influenced by differences in definitions, reporting, and collection measures. It must be noted
that it is important to focus on the trends in the data rather than any one specific data point
between communities. While measures have been taken to universalize and standardize the
data, the trend in the data is the most valuable information provided.
Data & Comparison
The data presented below represent the raw data collected by the Iowa City Police Department
and information gathered from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Data synthesis was based
on the 2010 US Census population. Metro Coalition comparison uses 2012 data. The
comparison uses the UCR system, which is described below.
UNIVERSAL CRIME REPORTING (UCR 1)
Crimes can be reported in various ways. The UCR system has been a standard used by police
departments across the United States and is utilized by the State of Iowa as a means of
reporting data. UCR1 data specifically refers to two groups of crimes: UCR 1 Property Crimes
and UCR 1 Violent Crimes. The following crimes are represented in these two groups:
UCR 1 Property Crimes
Arson
Burglary
Larceny
Shoplifting
All forms of theft
UCR 1 Violent Crimes
Murder /Non - Negligent Manslaughter
Forcible Rape
Robbery
Aggravated Assault
While more crimes exist, these crimes are utilized to provide an overview of workload and
highlight serious crimes in a community. Even with universal reporting, actual reporting of
crimes may vary between communities.

2015 Iowa City Fire Department Statistics
Why We Exist: The mission of the Iowa City Fire Department is to protect our community by
providing progressive, high quality emergency and preventive services.
General Fire Data
Performing a comparative analysis between local jurisdictions is an imperfect process. Data is
influenced by differences in definitions, reporting, and collection measures. It must be noted that
it is important to focus on the trends in the data rather than any one specific data point, the trend
in the data is the most valuable information provided.
Broadly speaking, the physical, political, and demographic characteristics of each reporting
jurisdiction influence performance. Examples include unusually good or bad weather, major
budget cuts, and median household income. Citizen preferences, council or board priorities,
local tax resources, and state - imposed spending limits cause additional variation in the
resources available for providing fire and EMS services.
More specifically, some of the factors that influence the comparability of fire and EMS data are:
Building stock — Industrial structures are more likely to be involved in fire or hazardous
materials events. Older structures are less likely to meet current fire codes or to be equipped
with fire detection and suppression systems. High -rise structures may pose additional
challenges.
Geoaraohy— Street layout, terrain, the fire /EMS station locations, and traffic flow can
significantly impact the ability for one jurisdiction to achieve the same level of service as
another.
Staffing— Jurisdictions can vary in the numbers assigned per fire apparatus, the minimum
scheduled to work each day, the percentage of sworn vs. civilian staff, and the percentage of
volunteers.
Scone — Jurisdictions have varying levels of EMT - medical services offered by fire departments.
The three levels are first responder, paramedic provisional and full paramedic EMS. Cost of
service may vary depending on the degree to which different departments perform EMS
services.

2015 Iowa City Public Library Statistics
Why We Exist: The Iowa City Public Library is an innovative and responsive community
center that supports lifelong learning, literacy, and access to the world of ideas.
The Library values and is committed to: intellectual freedom, excellence in customer service,
community building, working collaboratively, minimizing barriers to use, providing a
welcoming environment, and a well- trained staff.
General Library Data Discrepancies
Performing a comparative analysis between local jurisdictions is an imperfect process. Data are
influenced by differences in definitions, reporting, and collection measures. It must be noted that
it is important to focus on the trends in the data between communities rather than any one
specific data point. While measures have been taken to universalize and standardize the data,
the trend in the data is the most valuable information provided.
More specifically, some of the factors that influence the comparability of Library data are:
• Nonresident borrower ratio: The ratio of resident to nonresident borrowers can influence
funding for materials acquisition and program planning. Generally, jurisdictions are more
inclined to fund materials and programming for their own residents.
• Some variation in the number of borrowers may be attributed to the frequency with which
jurisdictions purge their borrower records. All other conditions being equal, jurisdictions
that purge records frequently tend to report fewer registered borrowers than jurisdictions
that purge infrequently.
• Because some jurisdictions provide library services to neighboring jurisdictions by
means of contract or other official agreement, the size of the service area may be larger
than the population of the jurisdiction.
• Variations in library expenditures may be attributed to differences in the number of
library facilities, the hours of operation, and the size and scope of holdings and
programs.
• Also possibly influencing expenditure levels is citizen demand for library services;
traditional library services such as book loans and reference assistance as well as less
traditional library-based services such as Internet access, adult literacy programs, and
more.
• Some differences in the number of items circulated during the reporting period may be
attributed to the size of a jurisdiction's library collection and the proportion of the
collection that circulates outside the library. For example, an increasing number of
jurisdictions offer access (both in- library and remote) to substantial electronic holdings
that do not circulate outside the library per se and, therefore, may not be reflected in
circulation statistics.

The Metropolitan Coalition is an organization comprised of Iowa's largest communities. FY2O13
data, as reported to the State Library of Iowa, are used. Per capita metrics are based on the
population of each city's jurisdiction, not the service area of the library. While not all Metro
Coalition cities' data are presented, all five cities' data are included in the 'average without Iowa

Selected National Library Comparison
The charts below present data from selected public libraries. Data were compiled by the
Institute of Museum and Library Services. Fiscal year 2011 reported data are used, the most
recent available for comparison libraries. Libraries were selected based on their similarities to
ICPL services and their cities' similarities to Iowa City.
*Population includes residents for each library's entire service area, including contracting cities and
proportional representations of rural county populations. For instance, the population used for Iowa City
includes a portion of rural county residents, Hills, and University Heights. This is important to help
standardize data.

From the inception of the Center in 1981 until 2003, the City and the County maintained a 28E
agreement that split operational costs 80% to 20 %. County funding of the Center peaked at
$141,410 in FY 2002. In 2003 the County withdrew from this agreement; by FY 2004 County
funding of the Center dropped to $75,000 annually. In FY 2012, the City was asked to submit
an Economic Development/Quality of Life Block Grant application to Johnson County in order to
receive funding. For FY 2012 and FY 2013 this amount was $70,000. It is important to note
that approximately half of County property tax receipts which support the Center grant also
come from Iowa City taxpayers. The FY 2014 grant amount will fall again to $59,224.

The Center's goal is for revenue from sources other than Iowa City property taxes to support
25% of the Center's budget. This goal of 25% includes but is not limited to: intergovernmental
grants, membership & program fees, contributions & donations, parking permit sales, and rental
fees. This calculation is based on the general revenues subsidy divided by the total
expenditures and transfer in General Fund (1000 only).

The growth in
assessed property
value has slowed in
recent years. The
effect of this slow
growth on taxable
value has been
offset by increases
in the state -
mandated "rollback';
a higher percentage
of residential
properties' value is
taxable.

The State of Iowa limits the
portion of a property's value
that is taxable, known as the
assessment limitation order or
"rollback ". This system is
intended to limit the amount
taxable value can increase in
any one year. Taxable value
can differ by property class (e.g.
residential, commercial,
agricultural, and industrial); for
City revenue streams, this most
notably affects the taxable
value of residential properties.
The portion of residential properties' assessed value that is taxable hit a low point in FY09,
when forty -four percent of residential property values were taxable. This percentage has
increased steadily for six consecutive years. However, this has coincided with slower assessed
value growth and an Iowa Supreme Court decision allowing some apartment complexes
previously taxed as commercial properties to reorganize as residential cooperatives. Currently,
ninety -five percent of a commercial property's assessed value is taxable, meaning that as
apartment complexes are reclassified as residential, the revenue the City realizes in property
taxes from these complexes drops by approximately half. As Iowa City has more multi -unit
apartment buildings per capita than elsewhere in the state, this decision disproportionately
affects Iowa City's tax base.

One measure of local
economic health is hotel /motel
tax receipts. The City uses
hotel /motel tax receipts to
augment funds for public
safety, parks & recreation
services, and the Convention
& Visitors Bureau. Generating
revenue from non -Iowa City
residents reduces the tax
burden on residents. After a
dip in revenue during FY2010,
hotel /motel tax receipts are
above pre- recession levels
and have increased over each
of the last four fiscal years.
Though the value of
building permits issued
has declined in recent
years, these numbers
rebounded significantly in
2012 and 2013. Total
value in 2013 was the
highest of any year in the
past ten years.

In 2009, the State of Iowa enacted legislation
establishing cities' right to impose a franchise
tax on gas and electric utilities. On February 16,
2010, the Iowa City City Council passed and
approved an ordinance establishing a one
percent (1 %) tax. Of the $880,871 for FY2013,
$592,826 funded a portion of the operational
costs associated with Fire Station #4 and
maintenance of the right -of -ways. The remaining
$288,045 funded Capital Improvement Projects
(CIP) in the right -of -ways.
The Iowa City property tax levy
comprised approximately forty -three
and a half percent of City residents'
total property tax bill. The Iowa City
Community School District and Johnson
County make up another thirty -five and
four - tenths percent and eighteen and
three - tenths percent of the total levy,
respectively.

Assessor, and Agricultural Extension levies.

Personnel costs comprise the largest
portion of General Fund expenditures.
Other financial uses are primarily
transfers out to capital projects.
Property taxes comprise over
half of General Fund revenue.
This reliance on property tax
revenue could become
problematic if the state ceases
the "backfill" from commercial
property tax reform that started
to effect the FY2015 taxable
valuations. City staff will
continue to monitor service and
staffing levels, appropriate user
fees, and attempt to identify
additional ways to diversify
revenue sources in order to
plan for possible significant
drops in property tax revenue.

Debt as a percent of the
allowable debt limit has also
continued to fall in recent years.
The State of Iowa mandates
that outstanding General
Obligation debt not exceed five
percent of the total assessed
value of taxable properties in
the municipality. Iowa City
outstanding General Obligation
debt is approximately one and
a half percent (1.5 %) of
assessed value, or
approximately one -third of the
allowable debt margin.

Total outstanding

is estimated to dropped

FY2011 and FY2014.
Due to unusually low
interest rates and the
City's strong bond
rating, the municipal
bond market continues
to be in the City's favor.

GLOSSARY
Agency Funds: One of four types of fiduciary funds. Agency funds are used to report

liabilities). Agency funds typically involve only the receipt, temporary investment, and
remittance of fiduciary resources to individuals, private organizations, or other
governments.

Assigned Fund Balance: The portion of the net position of a governmental fund that
represents resources set aside by the government for a particular purpose.

with periodic interest. Proceeds from bonds are typically used for long -term debt to
pay for construction of capital projects.
Bond Rating: Each bond issue has a rating assigned to it by an independent bond rating
company. The rating is based on the City's financial condition and has an impact on
the bond bids and interest rates the City will pay on the bonds over their lifetime.
Budget: A financial plan for a specific time period that estimates the expenditures and the
means of financing those expenditures which are associated with all services and
functions performed by the City.

expenditures.
Capital Improvements Projects: The specific projects that make up the Capital
Improvements Program. The projects involve construction, purchase, or renovation of
city facilities or property. They are generally non - recurring major improvements to the

nature.
Capital Outlay: Expenditures for fixed assets, such as equipment, remodeling, minor

changes or additions to the Consent Calendar. Honohan moved to accept the
Consent Calendar as presented, seconded by Dobyns. Motion carried 6 -0;
Bern -Klug absent.
b. Correspondence — None.
CITY DEPARTMENT PRESENTATIONS:
a. Library — Susan Craig, Iowa City Public Library Director, spoke to Members first.
She noted that they should have received a memo from Karen Logsden,
Community and Access Services Coordinator, about the variety of services the
Library offers. She added that the Library used the age of 55 as they reviewed
their services for seniors. There are approximately 5,000 people within the Iowa
City city limits who are over the age of 55 and currently have an active library
card, and around 1,000 people in rural Johnson County. Craig noted that the
large -print collection, for example, is one more heavily used by people over the
age of 55. Another area of interest for this age group is learning the new
technologies. The Library offers both classes and one -on -one learning through
the 'Drop -In Tech Help' feature for those needing help with a new smart phone,
for example. Craig also noted that they have hundreds of volunteers at the
Library, and that these volunteers are typically over the age of 55. Another
service of the Library that is typically utilized by the over 55 age group is the 'At-
Home Services' program. This program is open to all ages, but the majority of
users are over 55 and are unable to physically leave their homes to use the
library services.
Craig continued, noting that in their current strategic plan there is a specific goal
of doing more outreach to those citizens over the age of 55. This led to the
offering of more classes for this age group, and also more promotion of the 'At-
Home' program. Honohan noted that he had read the report and he asked for
some clarification on the numbers shown. Craig responded, noting that they do
not track participants' ages, other than when someone applies for a library card.

In this instance, participants are asked their date of birth. Honohan then asked
about the tech programs and how the Library staffs these. Craig noted that if it is
a class, the Library has trained staff to teach these. If staff is unable to answer a
question, they will find somebody who can, according to Craig. Honohan asked if
Craig had any idea of attendance numbers for these tech -type of programs,
where the senior age group may have attended. For the drop -in and the classes
offered, Craig stated that a significant number of the participants are over the age
of 55, but that again, they do not collect this information from participants.
Honohan stated that it would be helpful to have some attendance numbers for
these programs, mainly for the over 55 group.
Dobyns stated that he had a couple of questions for Craig. First he asked that
she briefly describe the conference rooms that are available at the Library, and
times of day that these are available, as well. Craig responded, noting that the
Library has five public meeting rooms, which are booked through either the
online process, via telephone, or in person. To use these rooms, Craig noted,
you need to be the representative of a non - profit group. Commercial use is not
allowed for these rooms, as the Library does not charge for use of these rooms.
In addition to these larger rooms, the Library also has four conference rooms and
four discussion rooms, each of varying sizes. These rooms are on a first -come,
first -serve basis. Dobyns noted that it sounds like the busiest time for these
spaces is during the academic year. He asked what the probability is of
obtaining Room A, the most popular at the Library, during this peak use time.
Craig stated that between 9:00 and 4:00, chances would be greater, that the
evening times are typically booked well ahead of time. Dobyns asked Craig if
she could get some numbers on both Rooms A, B, and C. He asked if the
Library has staff on -hand for these rooms when they are so heavily used, to do
things like set up, clean, etc. Craig stated that staff does typically check the
rooms after usage, but that due to not charging for the rooms, staff does not do
anything special. There is a standard set up with a podium chairs, tables, that
type of thing. If a special set up is needed, the user needs to do that themselves.
Craig stated that the Library does have sophisticated AV capabilities in Room A
for people to use, and if help is needed, the Library asks that participants contact
them beforehand in order to make sure they know how to use the equipment
prior to their use of the room.
Dobyns then asked about grants and whether the Library has seen any that are
geared towards senior services. Craig responded that she has seen some small
ones, such as the one they recently received from the Pilot Club. Next year the
Library will begin a program called `Traveling Tales,' which is based on books
and programming that goes to dementia facilities in the area. This program is
specifically designed for people with dementia to talk about books and to
experience other cultures through this. The grant from the local Pilot Club will
allow the Library to purchase materials for this program. Craig stated that the
Library, in addition to grant funding, can go through their Foundation for local
donations to help fund programming initiatives.
Honohan asked if these types of grants are one -time things. Craig responded
that typically they are, that they are meant to help get programming started in a
particular area. A question was then asked about the Library's outreach
services. Craig noted that the biggest outreach efforts go to those citizens who
have a difficult time getting to the Library in person. There are currently around
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 3
20 outreach collections, according to Craig, which are primarily made up of items
the Library has multiple copies of, gift materials that are not needed in the main
collections, and large -print material for the various retirement communities and
nursing homes in the area. Another outreach area that the Library has
experimented with is having a tech drop -in at the local HyVee. Craig stated that
this was not very well received and that they have had better luck with this
offering at the Library instead.
C. Parks & Recreation — Mike Moran, Parks and Recreation Director, spoke next.
Chad Dyson, Recreation Superintendent, was also present. Moran gave
Members some background on the relationship between Parks and Rec and the
Senior Center, beginning with the Golden Age Club and the annual Christmas
dinner. Moran then spoke to the philosophy differences between Parks and Rec
and the Senior Center. Where Parks and Rec provides services to all age
groups, from birth through death so to speak, the Senior Center is targeting a
specific audience. Moran noted that where the Senior Center is unable to
provide something, such as swimming, Parks and Rec can provide. In this way
they have collaborated on facility -based needs.
Moran continued, stating that Parks and Rec works towards recovering 50% of
their budget through fees and charges. They also work towards having their
adult programs fully recovered through fees, and youth programs at 50 %.
Programs for those with special needs has an almost zero recoupment,
according to Moran. As for fee policies, Moran explained that Parks & Rec fees
are based on income, not age. He then spoke to the structure of Parks and Rec,
and how they are similar to the Senior Center in that they also have a
Commission appointed by City Council. Also similar is how both Parks and Rec
and the Senior Center put out brochures of their programming for the public's
information. Moran then laid out the various departments within Parks and Rec,
with Recreation being the largest.
Dyson spoke to Members next and shared a handout showing some of the
breakdown in numbers regarding Parks and Rec's senior services. Aquatic
programming is one of the more popular programs with the senior crowd,
according to Dyson. Of the total 220 annual swim passes sold each year, 139, or
63 %, are to people in the 55 and up crowd. Younkers asked if there are any
perceived obstacles to Parks and Rec delivering programming to seniors. Moran
responded that space would be one major factor. Dobyns asked what time of
room space Parks and Rec has in its various facilities for public use, and also
what their general availability is. Moran stated that the Recreation Center has
three rooms, sometimes four. Mercer Park has two, with their availability being
slim to none, according to Moran. He added that summer is their busiest time
due to summer camp programming. Evenings are also busy, with local service
organizations using the rooms. Dobyns then asked what type of opportunities
are available for decentralizing programs and putting them into the
neighborhoods instead by using places of faith, community centers, etc., instead.
Moran stated that during the summer months they do bring the programs to the
neighborhoods, through Party in the Park and similar programs. Moran stated
that they could look into more of this, but that it would then become a staffing
issue of some type. He added that they do have a good relationship with the
School District and do use various facilities throughout the district. Fruin noted
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 4
that currently they are working with the District as they plan new facilities and
renovate old ones. As renovations are done, the City is looking for ways to
participate so that renovated spaces can become more available for public uses
outside of the school. Honohan asked if there is a charge for using school
facilities. Moran responded that this has been free, but that this is one of the
things they have been discussing. With new facilities coming online, this is likely
to change.
Honohan then asked some questions of Dyson regarding the handout on
attendance numbers. More specifically, he asked how many sessions there are
of the Adult Art Class. Dyson responded, stating that they typically have two
sessions per season, and then three seasons. This would be six to eight
sessions annually. Honohan asked if this would be the same for other program/
activities listed. Dyson stated that it would also apply to Adult Fitness /Dance,
Aquacise, and Adult Athletics. Pickle Ball, on the other hand, shows a daily
average. The Arthritis Foundation Aquatic Program is a bit different, with classes
fluctuating from three participants in a class to 12 or 15. This program is done on
a volunteer basis through the Arthritis Foundation.
d. Transportation — Chris O'Brien, Transportation Services Director, spoke about
his department's operations, noting that they oversee both Parking and Transit
operations for the City. O'Brien gave a brief overview of what services Transit
offers, including their SEATS operation. O'Brien made special note of 'off -peak
hours,' stating that they will further discuss this when they speak to 'off -peak
passes' for seniors and those with disabilities. Speaking to goals of the Transit
department, O'Brien noted that they have a goal of 33% that they try to recoup
with fares. He continued to explain the various funding sources for Transit, and
also shared various statistics with Members. O'Brien highlighted three bus
passes of particular interest to this group — the 'Off -Peak Senior,' `Senior Low
Income,' and a `Disabled' pass. Bern -Klug asked which service is ending in
January. O'Brien responded that this is the SEATS reduced fare, the paratransit
services. O'Brien further explained that this fare was part of a phased out option
that was set to expire in 18 months.
Dobyns asked O'Brien to further explain the revenue realities that led to these
changes, especially in light of the fact that there is a change in available
resources. O'Brien broke down the cost of a ride, both in regular transit and in
SEATS, giving Members a clearer picture of what they are talking about with a
change in available resources. Dobyns asked O'Brien to further clarify just why
there is less money available for paratransit services, and O'Brien outlined
funding changes and philosophies. Fruin noted that the City, along with
Coralville, contracted with the County to provide the SEATS service. The County
significantly reduced their funding during the last negotiation, and the City had to
make some adjustments. Therefore, Sunday service was one service cut and
half -fare was set to be phased out.
Fruin asked O'Brien to address an issue that was brought up at the previous
meeting, and that is when does the bus stop in front of the Senior Center and
when do they only drop off at the main hub downtown. O'Brien responded that
the Towncrest, Court Hill, free shuttle, and 7t" Avenue routes all stop on
Washington Street, outside the Senior Center. O'Brien continued to respond to
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 5
Members' questions regarding transit and SEATS services. Bern -Klug asked
O'Brien if they intend to seek more funds in order to restore Sunday service, or is
this going to be the new normal. He noted that as of right now, this is the new
normal.
O'Brien then spoke to Parking operations. He noted in particular the Tower
Place parking facility, directly next to the Senior Center. He noted that they have
an arrangement with the Center to buffer off an additional 75 spaces, especially
during the academic year. Honohan noted that during the time when it states the
parking deck is full, he can still get in with his pass. O'Brien stated that this is
correct and he further explained how Senior Center users can be assured of a
parking space during these peak periods. Honohan noted that he pays $100 per
year for his pass.
Dobyns asked what they have available for parking at the Library and at the
Recreation Center, and if any of the new developments in the area will interfere
with parking. O'Brien noted that his understanding is that much of this new
development will be providing its own parking on -site. As for the Recreation
Center's lot, it is to be reconfigured to allow for more parking. As for the Library,
O'Brien noted the on- street parking availability, as well as the Dubuque Street
facility at the corner of Linn and Burlington Streets. Honohan noted that the
Library also has five or six spaces for 20- minute parking, and in his experience
these work very well.
b. Neighborhood & Development Services (Aid to Agencies) — Tracy Hightshoe
from Neighborhood and Development Services addressed Members on the Aid
to Agencies process, as well as the Community Development Block Grant funds.
Hightshoe noted that the Aid to Agencies funds are available for operating
expenses, especially for local non - profits to use in their operations. She
explained the process that agencies go through annually, and how their
application is a request not only to Aid to Agencies, but also for United Way,
Johnson County, and Coralville funding. Hightshoe further explained where
these funds come from, noting that they have seen a decrease in funding. She
then explained what the Community Development Block Grant funds are and
where they come from. Hightshoe noted that these funds were used in several
senior housing projects — Concord Terrace, Lexington, Regency Place.
Fruin clarified for Members what City Steps is — a five -year plan that the federal
government requires, one that basically forces you to prioritize needs within the
community. He asked Hightshoe to address where senior services falls in the
City's priority list at this time. Fruin added that this is important as they will be
working on a new five -year plan very soon. He asked Hightshoe to also address
the level of funding they have been working with in the last few years when it
comes to senior services. Hightshoe noted that the funding provided for senior
services in the last few years has been made mostly to Elder Services to fund
four of their programs. Meals on Wheels and case management are two of the
primary programs being funded. Pathways Adult Day Health Care has also
received funds from the City, according to Hightshoe. Through the Home
program, Hightshoe noted that funds have gone to Lexington, Concord, and
Regency Heights for housing needs.
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 6
As for where senior services is ranked in the City's priority list, Hightshoe noted
that the current five -year plan has given senior services a `medium' priority. She
explained that they are currently beginning. the process of working with a
consultant to create the next five -year plan's priorities. She added that, in fact,
there is a community needs hearing tomorrow evening at the Senior Center.
Hightshoe then further clarified how they are addressing this prioritization
process. Younker asked how Elder Services is categorized, and Hightshoe
responded that they are classified in a 'general' category of senior services. She
noted that when it comes to housing, it is typically not categorized as senior so
much as it is income level.
Fruin then asked Hightshoe to give some examples from the various priority
levels, such as some high priority items. Hightshoe noted that high priorities are
mental health services, transportation, youth services, and neighborhood
services. Medium priorities include items such as health services, and Free
Lunch, Free Medical Clinic, and Pathways all fit in this category. Hightshoe
further explained that just because something is given a medium priority, it does
not mean the service is not needed. The priorities are given based on whether
something is a good fit for federal funds. Due to the income documenting
needed, some programs just are not a good fit for these requirements, according
to Hightshoe.
Honohan then asked for some clarification about the number of neighborhood
centers that are funded from these federal funds. Hightshoe noted that
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County is the actual non - profit agency that
has two neighborhood centers — Pheasant Ridge and Broadway — in Iowa City.
The funding goes to the actual non - profit, who in turn takes care of the two
centers. These centers provide mainly subsidized childcare for children under
five, youth programming, summer camps, and GED services for adults.
Honohan asked for some further clarification on where these federal funds go
and Hightshoe gave several examples of this, noting that the key here is the
agencies have to apply for these funds. The primary programs for seniors, that
are funded through these dollars, are Elder Services and Pathways. Fruin asked
if the City itself can apply for these funds, and Hightshoe noted that it can, and
that Parks and Rec has applied for funds to the various splash pads in the
neighborhoods. The School District has also applied for funds to use in
playground improvements, and the Housing Authority has applied for tenant -
based rent assistance for seniors.
Dobyns stated that he finds what Housing does for seniors to be very broad
based. He noted that what Hightshoe has been talking about covers many
entities who may or may not touch on senior services. However, the amount of
monies given to these many agencies is actually very small when you look at the
whole picture. Hightshoe noted that the annual action plan for the last five years
is on the City's web site, and that there is a page in there showing what was
requested and what was actually funded, which might show Dobyns that gap he
is referring to. Dobyns stated that he has seen this, but that it doesn't really give
all the information he is looking for. Younker asked how difficult it would be for
Hightshoe to gather this information for a five -year period. Hightshoe noted that
staff can work on gathering this information for the Committee.
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 7
Bern -Klug noted that this Committee needs to formulate their report by
December, and she asked Hightshoe when they will have their prioritization of
senior services completed. Hightshoe stated that they have to have their
document finalized in December, as well. She briefly explained that they have
been cautioning agencies to not expect the same amount of funding as previous
years, because much of the amounts that will be available are still unknown.
Fruin interjected that this is why meetings like tomorrow's hearing at the Senior
Center on community needs is so important. By getting feedback on what
services are truly needed and what should be a high priority, the process can
hopefully rank these items accordingly. Hightshoe noted several other meetings
where senior services can be talked about — tomorrow at 8:30 A.M. a session for
affordable housing providers; Wednesday, June 11, at 11:00 A.M. a session for
social service providers; and tomorrow evening the meeting at the Senior Center
for general input.
PUBLIC COMMENT:
Bryson Dean, a member of the Senior Center, spoke to Members, stating that she is
happy that the City Council has chosen to address senior needs in this manner. She
stated that she finds it rather interesting that questions keep coming up about space
when she thought they were talking about people and their needs. Continuing, she
stated that at the last meeting Councilperson Dobyns hypothetically asked Senior
Services Coordinator Linda Kopping what she might do for senior services if there was
`zero footprint.' She questioned what Dobyns meant by this comment, adding that in
this meeting he is again talking about space and meeting rooms and what events are
taking place where. Dean stated that it was also curious when the transportation piece
was presented. Nobody asked what might be the possibility of a dedicated stop for the
Senior Center. She added that this has been a very popular topic at the Center, as
some of the Members have trouble walking from the closest bus stop. She stated that
right now it appears there are some hidden agendas here and that hopefully things will
be clarified as they move through these issues. Webber asked for some clarification on
the dedicated stop issue, and whether Dean means right in front of the Center, versus a
stop nearby. She responded that this is indeed what she is referring to.
Kathy Mitchell, a Senior Center Commissioner, spoke next. She spoke to the choices in
the community for young people and children, for families, and for the college students.
She pointed out that this shows how unique the Iowa City /Johnson County Senior
Center is, in that it provides seven days of dedicated service to seniors with the
computer lab and continual volunteers to help anyone needing it. She spoke to some of
the other services offered, many seven days a week, that help seniors with the modern
technologies and the modern world.
USE OF SUBCOMMITTEES:
Younker stated that he and Vice Chair Dohrmann met recently to discuss ways to give
some structure to this Committee's work in order for them to meet their goals and
timelines. He reiterated what their charge is — evaluating and assessing the Senior
Center; making recommendations to City Council on the use of financial and physical
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 8
resources as they relate to senior services; and to then identify obstacles, including
facility obstacles, that impede people's opportunities to take advantage of senior
services. Younker added that he believes it is important for this Committee to have
transparency and for the public to know just what they are doing. He added that
Members have a copy of the email that basically lays out a proposal. This proposal is to
have three subcommittees. One would be tasked with completing the Senior Center
evaluation. The second would be charged with evaluating the physical and financial
resources; and the third subcommittee would be a drafting subcommittee. The finished
product will be a written recommendation to the City Council. The third charge of
identifying obstacles to these services will be covered by the first two subcommittees as
they work through their issues. As for a timeline, Younker explained how they would
like to handle this. First, they need to have more periods for public comment. He
suggested they have an open public forum in early July, in order to get the public's
perception of what is working well, what is not working, what needs to be made
available, etc., before the subcommittees dive into their work. Younker stated that the
goal would be to have the subcommittees meet on their own and work towards
preparing draft reports for their particular areas. Ideally these draft reports would be
ready by early September. At that time, these can be brought to the Committee as a
whole for comment, as well as for more public comment. Once these reports are given
to the drafting subcommittee, the goal would be to have an initial draft report by early
October. At this time there would be more public comment and revisions made as
needed, with the goal then of meeting that December deadline.
Webber noted that this gives them three months to get the understanding they need to
make these decisions. He added that they won't know what the critical funding is going
to be until the end of the year. Honohan noted that this is due in December, and the
Council will start its budget process in early January, and that this may be why the
Council selected the December date. Webber agreed, stating that they would have
former budgetary considerations to review to see what is actually needed to keep things
running. Honohan stated that he is all in favor of the public meeting that Younker
mentioned, but he questioned the location of said meeting. He added that he believes
they would have better participation if held at the Senior Center versus City Hall.
Webber agreed, stating that he was unaware that the Senior Center has been managed
by three professionals for 30 -some odd years, and they use only volunteers to fill in the
gaps. He added that the Center has been accredited twice, which is quite impressive,
and rated in the top ten in the nation. He believes they need to focus some attention on
this ongoing victory, perhaps with a plague.
Dobyns then asked if there is going to be one public meeting with a lot of comment, or
several meetings to gather this info. Younker stated that he believes there will be
several types of public meetings needed. The one he is calling for in July is a general
public forum. As they work through their recommendations in subcommittee, Younker
stated that the public meetings then can be more focused on particular
recommendations, for example. Dobyns stated that he strongly disagrees with having
this particular meeting at the Senior Center due to the bias with that population. He
further explained his belief, adding that City Hall represents all of the people, all of the
entities involved in this issue. Honohan noted that obviously they disagree here. He
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 9
noted that a specific charge is to review the Senior Center, and he believes they need to
hear from the people who use the Center. Younker further explained what his original
intent was for this first meeting. He believes that they need to let the public comment on
the process and the job of the Committee before they move forward. Honohan noted
that only 10 people are attending the current meeting in the City Hall location, versus 20
that attended a Commission meeting at the Senior Center regarding the ad hoc
committee itself. He also spoke to the time of day that meetings are held and what
population they can expect at evening meetings versus daytime meetings. Honohan
reiterated that he believes they need to start with a public meeting at the Senior Center.
Bern -Klug then asked if the evaluation of the Senior Center will affect the resources
evaluation, or if these are two completely separate items. Younker stated that his
understanding is that these are separate, at least in the initial analysis. There is overlap
between the two, he believes. Berg -Klug stated that she believes what is of highest
importance to everyone is resources and how they are going to be used. She strongly
suggested that they lay out how they plan to look at the resources and what a draft
report might look like, prior to getting public comment. She stated that she believes the
anxiety around these unknown changes is what needs to be addressed. Younker
further clarified what the Committee's charges are and how he believes they can
achieve their goals. The conversation continued on this topic, with Younker stating that
he believes they need several types of public comment. One is the general comment
type of session where people can comment on what they feel they need, what they like,
etc., just an overall comment session. Secondly, the subcommittee charged with
looking at resources would do just that — work with the City staff to see what resources
are available for senior services.
Fruin stated that staff can give the Committee some information on this, such as here is
what is spent on the Senior Center every year; here is what we spend on the support of
social services every year that senior service agencies could apply for. This would give
Members somewhat of a baseline understanding of what they are being asked to look
at. He added that looking at the financial aspects of this will not be part of the
Committee's charge. Bern -Klug noted that everyone on the Committee needs to be
privy to all of the information available, especially the items that the resource
subcommittee would have. Otherwise they stand the risk of disagreeing with the report
if they haven't all seen the same information. She believes this is the main part of their
charge and that all of them need to be part of the resource evaluation work. Honohan
stated that he would support this.
Younker agreed, stating that this is a very important part of their charge. However, a
concern he has with having the entire Committee tasked with assessing resources from
the beginning is for them to be able to make all of the meetings they will need, to get all
of the speakers in that they need, and still be able to present a report by December 1St
With the meeting rules they have to follow, this requires posting an agenda in a certain
amount of time, quorum issues, that type of thing. By having subcommittees, they can
be a bit more flexible in schedules as they go about getting the information they need
for their issues. Dohrmann asked if they were looking at subcommittees existing of
three people, and Younker agreed they were. Dobyns stated that he agrees with Bern -
Klug, that they need to do this in the best possible way in order to achieve their goals.
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 10
Younker stated that he believes the role of the subcommittees will be to decide what the
entire Committee needs to hear or read. He added that members of these
subcommittees will be able to request items be placed on the agenda, such as needing
further information on an issue. Honohan stated that he agrees with Berg -Klug too, that
the evaluation of the Senior Center itself will be less of their task, that the resources
portion needs the most attention. He added that with the information they will be
receiving from Fruin and Hightshoe, they will be able to move forward with that part of
the resources aspect.
Bern -Klug stated that it appears to her that part of the agenda is that the Senior Center
is receiving the lion's share of City funding, and other agencies would like a piece of this
funding. She asked if this is correct, and if their charge is to take this funding and
distribute more of it to these other groups. Younker explained that the
recommendations are to include how current financial and physical resources can be
used to meet the needs of Iowa City seniors, that this is where the idea of a
subcommittee was developed. Bern -Klug stated that if this is the case, and that
finances are not going to be increasing, then she believes they are basically talking
about redistribution of the Center's share of City finances.
Fruin responded to Bern - Klug's comments by stating that as a group they are going to
figure out the needs as put forth in their charge. Several scenarios could occur, and he
gave examples — such as staying the course and keeping funding as is. Another could
be taking money from the Senior Center funding and diverting it to agencies serving
seniors. Yet another idea could be identifying an unmet need, but stating that the
Senior Center funding should not be sacrificed to meet it — that another resource should
pay this. Bern -Klug moved that the full Committee do the resource evaluation
portion of their charge, seconded by Honohan. Younker noted that they have a
motion and a second on the floor, and he called for further discussion. He stated that
he believes without a subcommittee that several individuals will need to be tasked with
gathering some of this information, and he questioned how this would be done.
Dohrmann stated that she likes the idea of two open forums at the Senior Center, with
one being specifically for the Senior Center and the other a general one. She
questioned how the Committee would then regroup in order to accomplish their tasks,
as some of this will need to take place outside of their regular meetings.
Honohan responded that information can be gathered by Members and then put into
their meeting packets for distribution to the entire Committee. He expressed his
concern with only three Members being on a subcommittee. Bern -Klug again spoke to
how they could best achieve this, and she noted that perhaps the best way to go about
this is to have the subcommittee doing the legwork, but having the resources report
come from the Committee as a whole. She believes this will help them come to a
consensus as a whole better for the final report. Her concern is that others who are not
a part of this evaluation will not know as much as others on the Committee, and she
feels it is important that every one of them knows the same information.
The discussion continued, with members discussing how they can handle getting this
work done, without a subcommittee, and how they can delegate particular tasks to
Ad Hoc Senior Services Committee
June 9, 2014
Page 11
Members, who can then work on obtaining the needed information outside of meeting
times. Cannon agreed, stating that she also believes they all should be getting the
same information from the same sources in real time together and then they can
discuss this as a group. If they find that they need further clarification, she stated that
she would be glad to volunteer in making sure they had their issue taken care of.
Younker asked if there was any further discussion as they have a pending motion on
the floor at this point. . Bern -Klug moved that the full Committee do the resource
evaluation portion of their charge, seconded by Honohan. Motion carried 7 -0.
Moving on to the issue of establishing a subcommittee to evaluate the Senior Center,
Younker asked for a motion. Honohan moved to establish a Senior Center
evaluation subcommittee, seconded by Dohrmann. Motion carried 7 -0.
Younker then asked Hightshoe if she would be able to gather her information prior to
the meeting on June 23`d. Honohan asked if Fruin would be able to provide his
information as well for that packet. Younker then moved on to the topic of public
comment, receiving public comment at the meeting on the 23`d. This would be a
broader -based issue forum. Dobyns asked if this is something that will be special,
outside of the normal public comment at each meeting. Younker spoke to this, stating
that instead of the general public comment time they would devote more time to a
broader public comment session. By that date they will have had several meetings
under their belt and he believes it makes sense to invite the public to comment on the
Committee at this juncture. Dobyns moved that this meeting be held in a neutral
site, such as Harvat Hall in City Hall, and that a subsequent meeting be held at the
Senior Center. The agenda would also include the information from Hightshoe
and Fruin. Dohrmann seconded the motion. Honohan stated that he didn't envision
the 23`d meeting to be one for public comment. He thought this was to be at a meeting
in July. He thought that comment at the next meeting would be on the information they
are going to be receiving. Younker stated that whether the meeting takes place on the
23`d or in July he doesn't believe matters. That he wants to get as much broad public
comment as possible, as soon as possible. Honohan reiterated that he still believes the
July date works best. Bern -Klug stated that she believes the public will be most
interested once they see the draft proposal. The sooner they can get this draft out to
the public and receive their comments, she believes the better off they will be.
Younker asked for some clarification from Karr about how much discussion is
appropriate in response to a public comment during that section of the agenda. Karr
asked if this is for subject matter or timeframe, and Younker stated subject matter. Karr
stated that they can have more than one public comment, that they can have it under
their financial reports, for example, and then more of an open period for items not on the
agenda. Honohan stated that as he recalls what Dilkes said, they are restricted in their
interactions with speakers on items not on the agenda. Karr noted that this is a policy
that Council does follow. Honohan then asked Dobyns what the purpose of his motion
is. Dobyns responded that the purpose is to have a meeting early on in their process
that would be considered the meeting for people who are interested in this matter to
attend. He believes this is an important meeting, and that such a meeting should be

Page 12
held on neutral grounds, such as City Hall. Dobyns moved that this meeting, June
23rd, be held in a neutral site, such as Harvat Hall in City Hall, and that a
subsequent meeting be held at the Senior Center. The agenda would also include
the information from Hightshoe and Fruin. Dohrmann seconded the motion.
Motion carried 7 -0.
Honohan then asked Karr if it would be possible to get the meeting packets out on
Thursday evening. She stated that the first priority will be to the Council agenda, and
that she can work on the Ad Hoc agenda. It was agreed that information for the
Thursday packet should be to Karr no later than noon on Thursday.
PENDING ITEMS FOR FUTURE MEETINGS:
None.
TENTATIVE THREE MONTH MEETING SCHEDULE: (first and third Monday of each month):
Younker asked if there are any conflicts with the schedule so far. Karr stated that there is one
for August 4th, and Honohan added that they now have two. Younker suggested they wait and
address this at a future meeting. Karr asked that others get any dates to her so that staff can
work up a new calendar. Dobyns stated that he has been told he will be starting clinics in
September on Monday afternoons, and suggested meeting Monday mornings. The September
schedule will be discussed at the June 23r meeting. Members confirmed the start time of 3:30
for all meetings.
Tentative meeting times were discussed:
June 23
July 7
July 21
August 4
August 18
ADJOURNMENT:
Honohan moved to adjourn the meeting at 6:10 P.M., seconded by Bern -Klug. Motion
carried 7 -0.

MINUTES DRAFT
CHARTER REVIEW COMMISSION
JUNE 10, 2014 — 7:30 A. M.
HARVAT HALL, CITY HALL
Members Present: Steve Atkins, Andy Chappell, Karrie Craig, Karen Kubby, Mark Schantz,
Melvin Shaw, Anna Moyers Stone, Adam Sullivan, Dee Vanderhoef
Staff Present: Eleanor Dilkes, Marian Karr
RECOMMENDATIONS TO COUNCIL: (to become effective only after separate Council
action):
None
CONSIDER MOTION ADOPTING CONSENT CALENDAR AS PRESENTED OR AMENDED:
a. Minutes of the Meeting on 05/27114 — Chairperson Chappell asked if there
were any issues with the minutes. Chappell noted that he is questioning what is
stated on the second page of the minutes, second paragraph from the bottom,
where Karr was responding to a question regarding council pay. Karr noted that
this is how she responded, even though it was incorrect; and correct information
was provided in this week's packet. Vanderhoef then brought up an issue on the
same page, bottom paragraph, where she was talking about the amount of time
she herself spent on council issues. The 40 -hour minimum was her personal
minimum, not necessarily what other councilors should do. Karr noted that she
can make this clearer by adding, `From her perspective..." or "From her
experience." Vanderhoef agreed to this. Kubby moved to accept the minutes
of the 5/27/14 meeting as amended, seconded by Vanderhoef. Motion
carried 9 -0.
REPORTS FROM MEMBERS AND STAFF:
Sullivan noted that he had a conversation over the weekend with some of the organizers
regarding cameras and drones. They had talked to Sullivan about the logistical issues with
having to get qualified electors on their petitions. He recommended that they write a letter to the
Charter Commission to share their thoughts.
Karr stated a correction to the salaries mentioned at the last meeting was distributed; and
additional information distributed gives some background history on the salaries, as well the
process. Dilkes noted the email provided by Commission Member Kubby, received from
Caroline Dieterle, and stated she found the case referenced but has not had a chance to review
it yet.
REVIEW CHARTER:
a. Specific Sections to be Addressed:
Preamble — Chappell noted that in this section they have Schantz's
proposal still to review.
Definitions — Chappell noted that they are still working on clarifying this
section.
Charter Review Commission
June 10, 2014
Page 2
Article II — Chappell then started the review where they left off, with
compensation. He noted the information received from Karr on this
subject. Atkins asked why they have a salary for council. Chappell
stated that it is basically a stipend for Members, one that after some
discussion, this Commission thought the amount might need to be raised.
Sullivan added that the concern was that those in the community who do
not have very lucrative careers might not be able to run for a council seat
due to the huge time commitment and low compensation. Financially it
would be a hardship for many people. Stone stated that her take on the
conversation was that the compensation be enough that most anyone
could run for council, but that the amount would not be so much that
someone would try to make it their primary job. Kubby added that they
need to find that 'sweet spot.' Chappell agreed, stating that there does
need to be some type of compensation for missed work, etc. Stone noted
that council itself sets the ordinance for their compensation. She
questioned if the Charter Review Commission should come up with
another mechanism for this, so that the council does not set their own
compensation. Members continued to discuss this issue, agreeing that
the amount itself should not be in the Charter, but that a formula or
something to that effect could be set forth here. Karr noted that State law
prohibits councilors from giving themselves a raise — it goes to the next
council in two years. Craig stated that to her it appears the current
mechanism is working. She questioned if the Charter is the method,
actually, to increase engagement in government.
Section 2.06-- Vanderhoef spoke to this section, stating that after the last
meeting she gave some thought to the topic of the mayor and how many
terms this position should have. She presented the idea that there be no
more than two consecutive terms for a mayor. This would open up the
position more and might help alleviate some of the tensions that can arise
within the council itself. Kubby noted that this might help alleviate the
pressure that can build politically. Members continued to discuss this
issue, with Schantz stating that at some point they need to decide if the
selection of the mayor will remain with the other councilors or go to the
people. Chappell noted that they can have further discussion at any time
on these types of issues. He would like to get through the Charter once
and then they can return to those items that need further discussion.
Section 2.07 — Shaw spoke to Section 1.01 and how he believes it relates
to this section — the City has all powers either granted or necessary --
questioning a power that isn't expressly granted. He also questioned if
these two sections shouldn't reference the ordinances that are
established by the City. Schantz noted that the Preamble grants powers
to the City. Dilkes noted that the wording is from State law and she then
touched on what Section 1.01 is saying, as well as Section 2.07.
Chappell spoke to this, noting that his concern would be using
"necessary" in this wording. He then asked if there was consensus to
tentatively approve this section. Members continued to discuss their
views on the use of the word `powers' in this and other sections. Dilkes
read what the State code says, noting that this section of the Charter
Charter Review Commission
June 10, 2014
Page 3
comes from the State code itself. Members did agree to tentatively
approve this section of the Charter.
Section 2.08_— Kubby read Section 2.08 to begin the discussion. She
asked if these positions are typically appointed by the councils in other
Iowa towns. Dilkes responded that in Davenport, for example, the city
attorney works for the city manager. She added that the State code
requires that a city clerk be appointed. Atkins questioned item D, if the
council actually appoints all members of City boards. Dilkes noted that
State law dictates the composition of certain boards and commissions.
Members continued to discuss this issue, with tentative approval of this
section being made.
Section 2.09 — Schantz then read this section prior to the Commission's
discussion. Atkins asked if there were any legal standards that lay out
how records must be kept. Karr responded that in many cases there are.
Schantz noted that the Public Records law would apply here. Sullivan
asked if there is something elsewhere about boards and commission
recordkeeping standards. Karr stated that this is not included in the
Charter as it deals with the council. The bylaws and policies of the
boards and commissions are where you would find this information.
Tentative approval was reached on this section, as well.
Section 2.10 — Sullivan read the next section. Members agreed that there
was nothing they could change here as it is dictated by State law.
Tentative approval was reached.
Section 2.11 — Shaw read Section 2.11 prior to discussion. Dilkes noted
for the Commission's information that the only time you do not say `all
members of the council is seven' is when there is an abstention for a
conflict of interest. She gave an example of how this could play out, and
she also responded to Members' questions concerning these types of
issues. Schantz asked if State law requires super majority votes for any
particular issues the council votes on. Dilkes responded that it does, and
she gave an example of when there is a protest on a zoning decision.
She then responded to Members' questions, further clarifying what this
section is setting forth. Members agreed to tentative approval of Section
2.11 after some further discussion.
Chappell asked that Article III be added to the next meeting agenda so
that they can begin discussion of it.
b. Commission Discussion of Other Sections (if time allows):
None
DISCUSSION OF PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT:
Chappell discussed the tentative forum schedule, noting that the original date (June 16th) will not
work. He added that with everyone's schedule, they have come up with either an August or
September date. Karr added that this would give them plenty of time to get through their initial
Charter Review Commission
June 10, 2014
Page 4
review of the Charter, and to have plenty of time to get the word out about the public forum.
Kubby added that August might not be a good idea as so many community members are out of
town then. Looking at September, Members discussed what date might work for everyone.
Chappell suggested they take an evening meeting and make it the public forum. After some
discussion, September 23 was agreed to as a tentative public forum date. Chappell asked that
everyone come to the next meeting with their schedules so they can then confirm this date.
Kubby stated that she still believes they need to have a more conversational format at one of
their public forums.
PUBLIC COMMENT:
None.
TENTATIVE THREE -MONTH MEETING SCHEDULE (Second & fourth Tuesday of each
month):
June 24
July 8
July 22 — Schantz noted that he will be gone this date.
August 12
August 26
September 9
September 23 — corrected date; tentative public forum.
Karr asked Members to let her know if their schedules change, and she will alert the chair of
possible scheduling conflicts.
ADJOURNMENT:
Kubby moved to adjourn the meeting at 8:45 A.M., seconded by Sullivan. Motion carried
9 -0.

MINUTES PRELIMINARY
PUBLIC ART ADVISORY COMMITTEE
THURSDAY, JUNE 5, 2014
PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE ROOM — CITY HALL
Members present: John Engelbrecht, Mike Moran, Tam Bryk, Rick Fosse, and
Elizabeth Pusack
Not present: Brent Westphal, and Bill Nusser
Staff Present: Marcia Bollinger
Public Present: None
RECOMMENDATIONS TO CITY COUNCIL
Recommend approval to the City Council that for the 2014 Mural Project 1) Brock
Muench's proposal be selected for the College Street Bridge location; 2) the committee
asks Taylor Ross to provide a colored rendering of his proposal for the Fairmeadows
location so the committee may review and approve, otherwise the committee
recommends Cheryl Graham and Julie Fenton's proposal; 3) One of Tony Brown's
proposals selected for the Mercer Park location.
CALL TO ORDER
Meeting called to order at 3:34pm.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION OF ANY ITEM NOT ON THE AGENDA
No new business.
CONSIDERATION OF THE MINUTES OF THE MAY 1ST, 2014 MEETING
MOTION: Moran moved to approve the May 1st, 2014 meeting. Pusack seconded. Motion
passed 5:0.
MURAL PROJECT 2014- REVIEW OF PROPOSALS
Engelbrecht asked the committee to discuss the Mural Project applications. Bollinger then
explained that artists were asked if they would consider their proposals for the different locations
since there was significant interest in one location: the College Street Bridge. The committee
then carefully considered each application, which was shown via PowerPoint, for each location
and discussed their thoughts. The committee started with the College Street Bridge location and
reviewed the eight different proposals for this location. Engelbrecht stated that he pitched the
mural project to many of the BenchMarks artists and many of them submitted. Engelbrecht
stated which artists he was familiar with and explained his experience with the artists.
The committee then looked at and discussed the submitted proposals for the Fairmeadows
Splash Pad location. The committee carefully discussed each of the six proposals submitted.
The committee then looked at the Mercer park location in which there were also six proposals.
The committee looked at all proposals for all locations and discussed which ones they would
like to select. Committee members then voiced their favorite proposals for each location. They
also discussed each proposal in terms of what the proposed theme was for each location.
The committee discussed one artist's proposals and stated that they wished they could see
them in color. Engelbrecht stated that that particular artist ran out of time and had to submit
rougher sketches. The committee discussed the favorite proposal for the College Street Bridge.
Pusack stated that she would like to see something edgier. There were two clear favorite
proposals for the Fairmeadows location. Moran suggested the Wetherby Splash Pad as an
alternate location for one of the proposals. There wasn't a clear consensus for either location.
Through the discussion of the Mercer Park location, the committee expressed a desire for
consistency in the level of quality of the proposals. Bryk suggested clarifying the quality and
level of detail required for submission to be included in future calls to artists. The committee
would like to see approximately the same level of detail with each submitted proposal so that
they can judge proposals more equally.
MOTION: Bryk moved that: 1) Brock Muench's proposal be selected for the College Street
Bridge location; 2) the committee ask Taylor Ross to provide a colored rendering of his proposal
for the Fairmeadows location so the committee may review and approve, otherwise the
committee would select Cheryl Graham and Julie Fenton's proposal; 3) One of Tony Brown's
proposals selected for the Mercer Park location. Pusack seconded the motion. Motion passed
5:0.
PROJECT UPDATE — GEORGE'S MURAL
Engelbrecht stated that the George's Buffett mural project will not happen. He thought that the
owner decided that he did not want to cause concerns and lose long time customers as a result
of the mural.
DOWNTOWN STREETSCAPE ART PROJECT UPDATE
Bollinger explained the downtown streetscape and what has been decided as a result of the
subcommittee. There has been much discussion regarding the area that has been called the
Blackhawk Mini Park. Bollinger stated that the idea has been to work directly with the Museum
of Art and Sean O'Harrow, and solicit proposals from artists who are on an internationally
renowned level. They look at this project as a significant project that could cost up to $1 Million.
Bryk asked for clarification on the price. She wanted to know if it was the cost of the work or the
value of the work. Both Bollinger and Engelbrecht stated that it would be the cost of the work.
Engelbrecht stated that they were looking at this piece as a signature for the City. The artists
that are being looked include artists like Andrew Goldsworthy, Maya Lin, and Vito Acconci.
Bollinger stated that she thought there would be continued discussion regarding this topic and
that she is had already received input from local artists.
INSIDE OUT PROJECT UPDATE
Bollinger stated that the Inside Out project is not yet completed. 16 of the 24 posters were
installed. There were two days available for the installation of the posters and they were not
able to finish. The plan was to use volunteers to complete the installation. Engelbrecht
expressed concern since the existing 16 are starting to fade and the posters would be in
different stages of degradation. Moran stated that the project did get a lot of great press. Bryk
agreed with Engelbrecht, that the remaining posters should not be put up because the posters
would be in different stages.
POETRY IN PUBLIC PROJECT UPDATE
Bollinger stated that everything is done in regards to Poetry in Public but there was an issue
with the installation of posters in the downtown kiosks. Bollinger stated that she was given
permission to put the posters up in the windows of the Iowa City Public Library. Bryk stated that
she thought the Library was the perfect place. Bollinger agreed but stated that it is a policy of
the library to not put anything up in the windows, but they made an exception for the program
this time. Pusack expressed interest in being a part of the Poetry in Public program next year.
BENCHMARKS PROJECT UPDATE
Engelbrecht updated that group on the BenchMarks Project. Bryk and Bollinger stated that the
benches which were completed looked great. He was able to get 26 artists to complete 30
benches. He stated that many are done and done well, but that there have been issues with
some of the remaining benches. Engelbrecht stated that he is currently following up with a
remaining 5 -8 benches. He also stated that instead of contracting a company, himself and other
artists that have worked on this project in the past have been repeating and touching up
benches from past years. Engelbrecht also stated that the Credit Union agreed to sponsor this
project for three years and it has now been three years. There will no longer be a sponsor for
this program next year. Moran asked whose responsibility it is to find a new sponsor.
Engelbrecht stated that he was unsure. Engelbrecht thought that this project could minimally be
run for $12,500.
KIDZ TENT PROJECT UPDATE
Bollinger stated that this event will start on Saturday. The tent will be open from 10 AM to 4 PM
on Sunday and volunteers from this committee will pick up donations from artist on Saturday.
Bryk and Pusack volunteered to work the tent on Sunday. Engelbrecht stated that he could help
pick up on Saturday.
FY15 PUBLIC ART FUNDING — PROCESS ALLOCATION OF FUNDS
Bollinger stated that this topic will be discussed at the next meeting. She stated that we still
need some ideas, and asked the committee to think of ideas for the allocation of the $12,000.
OTHER
Zitzner then spoke about the application for the NEA Grant called Art Works which has two
application deadlines of July 24th and February 20th. She stated that the February 20th grant
would be more feasible and the committee agreed. She also spoke briefly about funding that is
available through the MPO. Bollinger clarified and stated that the money will be available and
that it just needs to be applied for. Zitzner gave examples of a project in which bike racks are
built and designed by artists. This type of program would be carried out similar to the Mural
Project in which an RFP would be issued.
ADJOURNMENT
Moran motioned and Bryk seconded a motion to adjourn at 5:04 PM.

IOWA CITY TELECOMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
I DI 1M
MONDAY, JUNE 2,2014--5:30 P.M.
CITY CABLE TV OFFICE, 10 S. LINN ST. -TOWER PLACE PARKING FACILITY
MEMBERS PRESENT: Laura Bergus, Nicholas Kilburg, Alexa Homewood, Matt Butler
MEMBERS ABSENT: Bram Elias
STAFF PRESENT: Ty Coleman
OTHERS PRESENT: Josh Goding, Emily Light
SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION
Coleman said Grassley informed him that an increase in broadband speeds has been implanted.
Grassley also said that Cedar Rapids now has a 350 Mbps Internet service plan and that due to the
number of local access channels Iowa City will not likely be upgraded to that level soon. Coleman
asked Grassley if there might be an interest in providing a HD signal for local access channels in
exchange for moving a channel or channels' channel number out of the lower numbers. Coleman said
the Internet consumer guide website has been up since the beginning of May. Homewood said it
would be interesting to see how many people viewed the site and used the bandwidth calculator.
Coleman said he could get that information. The Iowa City Communications Department agreed to put
a link to the consumer guide on the city's website in the newcomer's section. In addition, Brau will
forward the link with an explanation to the University of Iowa Orientation Department. The first video
has been completed and is on the City Channel. Coleman said a draft of a survey regarding viewers'
perspectives on the local access channel was included in the meeting packet and ask Commissioners to
review it and think about what additional kinds of information would be useful to explore. The goal is
to improve the local access channels' services. Each access channels was forwarded a draft and
feedback requested. Homewood and Kilburg said it good to include the surrounding area and not limit
the survey to Iowa City. Coleman said it would be best to conduct the survey when the University is in
session. How to collect responses is still being explored. A web -based survey will likely be done and
other methods might also be pursued.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
Bergus moved and Kilburg seconded a motion to approve the amended March 24, 2014 minutes. The
motion passed unanimously.
ANNOUNCEMENTS OF COMMISSIONERS
Homewood thanked Bergus for her presentation to the city council on the Internet consumer education
initiative and said presentation was very well done.
SHORT PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS
None.
CONSUMER ISSUES
Homewood noted that there was a written report in the meeting packet. Coleman said one of the
complaints has subsequently been resolved.
MEDIACOM REPORT
Coleman said Grassley informed him that an increase in broadband speeds has been implanted.
Grassley also said that Cedar Rapids now has a 350 Mbps Internet service plan and that due to the
number of local access channels Iowa City will not likely be upgraded to that level soon. Coleman
asked Grassley if there might be an interest in providing a HD signal for local access channels in
exchange for moving a channel or channels' channel number out of the lower numbers.
LOCAL ACCESS CHANNEL REPORTS
Goding reported that PATV was open 39 hours per week for 13 weeks in the first quarter of 2014. 168
hours of programming were cablecast per week. The guidelines workshop has been moved to the first
Thursday of the month. The PATV board will not meet in June. On June 14 PATV will open the
studio for people from 12 -3 pm to come in before a green screen and record a Father's Day message
for a program to air on Father's Day. PATV continues to produce the "Live and Local" program on a
wide variety of local topics and "Live from Prairie Lights ". A new series, "What If', produced in
association with the University of Iowa Public Policy Institute will begin playback soon. Light
reported that the month of May was quite busy at the Senior Center and SCTV recorded many of those
events. Events include concerts by the New Horizons Band, the Voices of Experience and Family Folk
Machine, a performance by a group recreating an old -time radio show, a panel discussion on aging
stereotypes, and a screening of a documentary, "Consider the Conversation ", followed by a panel
discussion.
CONSUMER EDUCATION PROJECT
Coleman said the consumer guide website has been up since the beginning of May. Homewood said it
would be interesting to see how many people viewed the site and used the bandwidth calculator.
Coleman said he could get that information. The Iowa City Communications Department agreed to put
a link to the guide on the city's website in the newcomer's section. In addition, Brau will forward the
link with an explanation to the University of Iowa Orientation Department. The first video has been
completed and is on the City Channel.
LOCAL ACCESS CHANNEL SURVEY
Coleman said a draft of a survey regarding viewers' perspectives on the local access channel was
included in the meeting packet and ask Commissioners to review it and think about what additional
kinds of information would be useful to explore. The goal is to improve the local access channels'
services. Each access channels was forwarded a draft and feedback requested. Homewood and
Kilburg said it good to include the surrounding area and not limit the survey to Iowa City. Coleman
said it would be best to conduct the survey when the University is in session. How to collect
responses is still being explored. A web -based survey will likely be done and other methods might
also be pursued. Bergus asked if there was an opportunity to promote the survey using Mediacom's
bills. Coleman said he will inquire.
