Comment: The purpose of this ordinance is to provide adequate time for
the completion of the new Comprehensive Plan and the proposed
zoning ordinance. The City Council, various commissions, staff
and residents have invested considerable time and expense in
planning for the orderly development of the City of Iowa City.
An interim ordinance preserves the status quo pending the completion
of the new Comprehensive Plan. It will prevent construction of
potential non -conforming uses that would frustrate the new Plan.
Construction within the designated area will be limited to
single family dwellings and duplexes and the repair, but not
expansion, of existing structures. The ordinance will remain
in effect for six months or until the enactment of a new zoning
ordinance, whichever is sooner.

RE: Moratorium
After reviewing the action taken on setting the public hearing on the
amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, I have come to the following conclusions:
Sept. 27th Council set public hearing for 10/25.
Notice was not ready by publication date.
Oct. 11th Council reset public hearing for 11/1.
Ryan provided notice at 8:45 A.M. on 10/12, to meet publication
deadline. Later that day a xerox copy of the ordinance was
provided for me, which I must have added to the Council meeting
folder of the 18th, which is where Vicki found it when indexing
that meeting and packet. I also remember seeing it, as I
remember thinking, after all that running around to make a copy
available for Atty. White, (and we were so busy, and behind in
indexing making it difficult to find anything requested from
us) and we had it all the time. Vicki remembers me telling them this.
Ilhen Atty. Ilhite asked for a copy, lie says on the 18th, we
couldn't find ours. I didn't even remember adding the Ord.
to the meeting folder. We get many additions and reports on
Council meeting days. Ile got a copy from Ryan who drafted it,
and also made another copy for our office.
While indexing, Vicki had noticed that the Ord. was not file -
stamped, so she determined that altho it could have been filed
anytime between the 12th and 14th, the 14th was the final date
that is should be on file for examination by the public, so
used that date for filing both the meeting folder copy and the
second copy from Ryan.
Atty. White was the first person requesting a copy, which altho
was not file -stamped, was made available to him by our office
which fulfills the requirement in the notice. If you have any
questions, please advise.

RE: Northside Mo itorium
On November 1 the City Council will hold a public hearing on the Northside
moritorium. Enclosed is the proposed ordinance and comment which will
accompany that ordinance on the agenda.
Normally the City Council does not consider an ordinance the same night as
the hearing on that ordinance. However, considering the nature of the mori-
torium, it is recommended, if the Council desires to institute the moritorium,
that the City Council approve the moritorium ordinance for final adoption at
the meeting of November 1.
