Urban Renewal Plan
A. Introduction
The continued stability and vitality of the heart of Iowa City as the
center for business, governmental, institutional, and cultural activities
is endangered by blight, deterioration and obsolescence. Recognizing
this danger, and considering the community pride and achievement focused
on this area, the City of Iowa City, through its Department of Community
Development, has initiated a program of Urban Renewal action in
its Central Business District.
This Urban Renewal Plan was prepared with the assistance of the Federal
government. The primary objectives of the plan are to stimulate, through
public action and commitments, private investments in redevelopment and
in rehabilitation. In order to achieve the objectives of the City -
University Project, the City of Iowa City shall undertake the Urban
Renewal actions specified in this Plan, pursuant to the powers granted
to it under Chapter 403 of the 1975 Code of Iowa, as amended.
