HAYEK & HAYEK ATTORNEYS AT LAW 110 EAST WASHINGTON STREET IOWA CITY, IOWA 52240 The Honorable Mayor and City Council of Iowa City Civic Center Iowa City, Iowa 52240 January 11, 1978 Re: Windsor Heights Part Six Mayor and Council Members: AREA CODE 319 337.9606 The developer of Windsor Heights Part Five recently inquired of my office as to whether or not the Council would have to refer the above plat back to the Planning and Zoning Commission where five or six lots are deleted from the final approval pending a decision by the Council as to the street involved. It is my understanding that Planning and Zoning has reviewed both alternatives with respect to the street and does not have objection to either one. I would basically regard approval of Windsor Iieights Part Five absent the final resolution of the street matter so that a subsequent plat incorporating the City's decision with respect to the street could be submitted as a non - substantial change which would not require resubmission to Planning j and Zoning.

I understand this is against a city ordinance. The car it; an Austin -Healey, obsolete by ten years and irreplaceable. Several factors make it dangerous in either summer or winter to park it in the street. 1) My house is at the bottom of a hill, and it seems to be in vogue for IOWA City's hot rudders to exercise their engines on this hill. 2) The street is poorly plowed and icy in the. winter. 7) Large trash containers from the apartments across the street are rolled down the street occnssionally by vandals. k) My driveway is too steep to park the car on or to Jack it up to work on it. 5) My garage is unusable except for storage as both this car and my wife's Mercury drag their tail ends getting into it. G) I don't drive this car in winter and, if I leave it in the street, have to move it every 48 hours. In addition, it is in the way of snowplows, which are themselves another hazard. Parking the car on the apron of the driveway eliminates all of these Potential problems, and It is no hazard or inconvenience to anyone. III CROI ILMED BY JORM MICR+LA6 CI.
