MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Dennis R. Kraft, unity
& Julie Vann, CDBG Program
RE: Senior Center Project
PRELIMINARY PROGRAMMING REPORT:
DATE: March 10, 1978
Development Director
Coordinator�L(lr,
Attached please find a copy of the Preliminary Programming Report for
the Joint Senior Center - Ecumenical Housing Corp. (EHC) Elderly
Housing Project. This report presents a summary of the types of
programs to be developed both in the senior center facility and in
the elderly housing structure. As presented, there is a minimum
amount of duplication of programs to be developed and spaces to be
allocated in the two facilities. The recommendations will allow
considerable future program flexibility.
The staff recommends approval of this report and requests direction
from the City Council for staff preparation of a detailed space
allocation plan which will subsequently be presented to the project
architects.
FINANCING:
The coordination of funding for the various programs to be carried
out at the senior center will be a complex process. Potential sources
of funds include federal, state, county and local governments, as
well as from various private sources.
The largest potential single source of funding is the federal government.
It is anticipated that the City will, also be seeking or securing funds
from: (1) local governments, (2) county government, (3) non-profit
corporations, and (4) institutions of higher education. Potential
federal funds are available in the following areas: employment,
volunteerism, economic self-sufficiency programs, community development,
housing, health, mental health, nutrition, transportation, education
and training, arts and humanities, social and behavioral research,
supportive and protective services and special programs.
Philanthropic donations typically come from four sources. These include:
living individuals, bequests, foundations and corporations. Organizations
such as United Way channel money from private philanthropic sources to
other voluntary organizations. Foundations (non-governmental, non-profit

organizations) often provide financial aid for the maintenance of activities
or programs in senior centers. Some instances this is provided in the form
of matching grants. Donated funds and volunteer time from individuals or
corporations in the area is another potential source of assistance for
senior center activities.
The Ebenezer Center for Aging and Human Development has a considerable
amount of experience in obtaining money from a wide variety of sources
and will certainly provide assistance to the City in this endeavor. This
organization also has considerable experience in budgeting for and
operating senior center programs using the myriad of available funding
sources. At the present time, the Ebenezer staff is in the process of
compiling a list of potential sources of funds and will continue working
with the City staff in attempting to secure funds for the renovation,
equipping and operation of the senior center. It is anticipated that the
proposed budget for the senior center for FY1980 will be presented to
the City Council next fall.
MANAGEMENT:
The management of the Senior Center and its coordination with the elderly
housing project is another complex issue which needs to be carefully
addressed. The primary goal of the Senior Center is to expand and
coordinate opportunities available to senior citizens. Throughout the
development of a management structure, this goal must be kept firmly
in mind. This is a key factor in the development of a successful
senior center.
The joint Senior Center -Elderly Housing Task Force will discuss the
ramifications of various management systems at their meeting of March 22.
It is anticipated that the task force will ask both`the City Council and
EHC to appoint representatives to a conference committee which will be
specifically assigned the task of recommending a management system for
this project. Prior to the issuance of a final recommendation, various
alternatives will be evaluated and financial aspects will be carefully
considered. The management system recommendation will be available for
the City Council's review in April.
Some of the issues the staff has already identified and which need to
be analyzed include the following: (1) how to effectively involve senior
citizens in the decision making process, (2) how to delegate program
decisions to the staff and senior center participants' advisory board
without losing control of the project, (3) how to adequately protect the
City's investment in the senior center, (4) how to finance an effective
management system, and (5) how a management system miqht maximize the
community -wide character of the facility and still meet the needs of

MEMO TO: City Council and the Ecumenical Housing Corporacion
FROM: Senior Center/Elderly (lousing Joint Project Task Force
RE: Preliminary Programming Report
DATE: March 10, 1978
Attached is a copy of the Preliminary Programming Report for the joint senior center/
elderly housing complex. This report represents the thinking of many persons and
groups in our community. Special efforts were made to get the views of elderly
persons and agencies that serve the elderly. The Task Force members endorse the
program and space recommendations presented in the report.
From its discussion of program and space needs, the Task Force members feel several
matters are of special importance; so we want to emphasize these points in the
introduction to this report.
1. Elderly persons' advice should be sought continually as the complex is planned
and put into operation, so that space and facilities meet the needs of elderly
persons and so that the elderly of our community truly feel that the Senior
Center is theirs.
2. Space should be set aside for future development (see the bottom of page 7 of
this report).
3. There will then be space to fit unforeseen needs that will crop up the first
year or two of operation. We feel that the participants/residents will then
see and voice those needs.
4. Spaces should be designed to allow for a great deal of flexibility in room sizes
and use. Also, equipment and furniture should be easily movable to allow
flexibility in use of space.
5. Our preferences for where space should be located (either in the housing facility
or the center) are listed on pages 7 through 10. however, if [IUD funding
permits, it may be an advantage to locate some space in the housing facility
that is recommended as part of the center in this report.
6. Elderly persons of our community (.Johnson County) should feel comfortable about
using both facilities in the complex, except in private areas. It should be
their center, open to all. But we also feel attention needs to be given, in
design and operation, to security safeguards.
7. There should be convenience facility areas built into the complex (see page 6,
item 8). But these conveniences should be for participants/residents only and
should not compete with private businesses.

PROGRAM AND SPACE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR '1111: IOWA CI'T'Y SENIOR CbN'T'ER-HOUSING COMPLEX
The representatives of the City staff and the Ecumenical (lousing Corporation have
met a number of times to review the report of recommendations received from the
consultants, the suggestions and comments made by service providers, and other
relevant data obtained in surveys of older persons in the Iowa City area. We are
agreed that the following programs and services should be included in the housing -
senior center complex:
Leisure activities, recreation, and education programs
Information, referral, and outreach services
Transportation program
Health services
Nutrition programs
A broad range of social services
Volunteer and employment programs and services
Convenience services
Administrative space
Leisure activities, recreation, and education programs
There can be no question about the fact that one of the most important features
of the housing -senior center complex in the minds of both older persons and
providers of services is that there be adequate provisions for leisure
activities, recreation, and education programs. Provision of these kinds of
programs will require space in both the apartment building and the senior
center building. The spaces will be designed to allow a great deal of
flexibility in room sizes and uses. This might be accomplished with moveable
walls or partitions and equipment. The types of spaces required include:
A. A large muZti-purpose meeting/party/lounge area to be located in the
senior center. This room (1) should be an assembly room large enough to
accommodate 80-100 individuals, (2) should be designed to allow convenient
subdivision into two or more smaller multi-purpose meeting rooms to
accommodate activities for 40-50 or
10-20 individuals, and (3) should be
located adjacent to dining area to
allow for room size expansion for
special events, such as a bazaar, ��rr••"�
anniversary party, etc.
This area will be used for games,
dances, parties, meetings, group
assemblies, overflow "clean"
crafts, educational workshops or
classes, exercise classes, etc.
Storage should be provided for a
lectern, projection equipment,
records, amplification equipment,
a collapsible stage, chairs,
tables, etc. The room should have
a kitchenette adjacent to
accommodate parties and other
events.

least two clinical ofj'iceo and a ^mall ennfercncr, room to provide visiting
nurses, physicians and other health care personnel; social service workers;
personal, financial and legal counselors adequate space in which to work
conveniently and privately will be developed. At least one of the offices
would have an adjacent lavatory and toilet, a storable examination table, and
appropriate lighting to perform physical examinations. '['here should also be
a reception and waiting area, and storage space built in so that different
clinicians could keep their resource materials and records secure and separate.
Alao to be located in the senior center is permanent space for use by the
Visiting Nurse Association.
Health services to be provided would include:
A. Screening programs, including general health, dental, vision, speech
and hearing; innoculations, consultantions, referrals, etc.
B. Assistance to older persons to use community health resources by
referral, information, transportation and escort services
C. Homemaker -home health services
D. Health educational programs
E. Occupational therapy programs
F. Emergency first-aid services
Interest in providing health care services has been expressed by the Visiting
Nurse Association, and there is no doubt that special programs can be
developed with other health care providers through the University
Gerontology Program.
Funding will come from the service providers and from special appropriations
and grants.
S. Nutrition programs
The nutrition programs originally developed by the Administration on Aging
have proved to be among the most widely accepted, successful programs in the
field of aging. This is true in Johnson County as it is across the nation.
Provision of space to continue and to expand nutrition services in the Iowa
City area should be made in both the housing and in the senior center areas
of the complex.
It is recommended, therefore, that dining room and kitchen facilities be
planned as a unified program in both areas equipped to accommodate at least
150 people (expansible to 200 in the future) for food service at any one time
in the dining room area. The kitchen facilities should be large enough to
handle food service for as many as 300 persons (expansible to 400 in the
future), and to prepare and package at least 65 meals per day (expansible
to 100 in the future) for home delivery.
You- kitchen will be located in the senior center, but should be located
adjacent to both the dining area apartment tenants will use, if the senior
center is closed, and to the dining area of the senior center. The kitchen
should be well designed and versatile, that is have the capacity to he used
for a variety of occasions - congregate meals, special functions, etc.

The dining room(::) will be located in hoth t.h.- nrnira unto• and apart.rnrnl
building. Although there will he dining areas in both facilities, these
dining areas might he adjacent and appear to be the some room to the general
observer.
A kitchenette will be available, adjacent to the multi-purpose rooms, ?n the
senior center. This facility will provide senior citizens the versatility to
entertain at parties, serve small group meals, hold cooking classes, open a
snack bar area without disturbing the more complex food preparation activities
of the central kitchen.
enior Center office apace will be developed for use by the food services
director.
The basic funding of the nutrition programs would be from the Johnson County
Board of Supervisors as the subcontractor for the Title VII Program
through the Heritage Agency on Aging, plus supplemental funds from other
agencies and programs, and from participants and tenants.
6. A broad range of social services
The broad range of social services to be included have already been alluded
to in earlier sections under outreach, information, referral, and counseling
services in the clinical suite described under the heading of health services.
More specifically, space will be needed for social service counseling, financial
assistance, legal counseling, housing assistance, personal counseling, and
homemaker -home health aide services, among others.
In addition to the social services office space identified on page 3 (clinical
suite) and page 2 (several offices for information referral), there may be a
need for additional psace to accommodate other social service providers and
counselors on a periodic or part-time basis.
Interest in providing services under this heading has been expressed by:
A. The Johnson County Council on Aging
B. The Johnson County Department of Social Services
C. Mid -Eastern Communities Council on Alcoholism
D. Lutheran Social Services
E. hlid-Eastern Iowa Community Mental Health Center
P. Iowa City Housing Rehabilitation and Assistance
C. Ilawkeye Legal Services
II. Heritage Agency Legal Services
I. Ilawkeye Area Community Action Program (HACAP)
J. Iowa City Community Pastoral Counseling Program
K. The University of Iowa Gerontology Program
Funding for these services would be provided by the agencies, participants,
and from special appropriations and grants.
7. Volunteer and employment programs and services
"there are two distinct aspects of volunteer services: (1) that which involves
senior citizens themselves as bolunteers, and (2) that which involves other
persons in the community who willingly give of their time and energy to

provide services and programs for the older person participants. Employment
services range from the provision of information about employment opportunities
to education and training programs to assist older people to fill employment
openings.
Both aspects could take place in the housing -senior center complex. That is
to say, there will be many opportunities for both older persons and others
in the community to provide volunteer services in both facilities and in extra-
mural programs. These would include such jobs as clerical work, reception,
participant council and resident council activities, committee work, hospitality
programs, group leadership, teaching, and outreach work.
Employment opportunities would also exist in both facilities as well as in
the community at large.
Interest in such programs and services has been expressed by:
A. The Congregate Meals Program
B. Goodwill Industries
C. .Johnson County Council on Aging
D. .Job Service of Iowa
E. Green Thumb
Funding for these programs and services would come from the agencies and
from special appropriations and grants.
8. Convenience services
Several sources of information, including (a) the report from the consultant,
(b) the worksheets completed by current service providers, and (c) the surveys
of older persons in the community, directed attention to the need for
"convenience services." Although the final program implementation plans will
be developed by the facility users: it is suggested that space be reserved
for these activities. In the housing facility, apace mill be allocated for a
beauty -barber area and sundry area for residents and for a postal sub -station
for use by residents and senior center participants. It has been suggested
that the postal service be located with the housing mail room and provide not
only for the receipt and distribution of residents' mail, but also for stamp
sales and package mailing.
In the senior center it is proposed that a snack area be developed. This
will likely coincide with the kitchenette described in Section 5, page S.
It would provide senior center participants the opportunity to prepare coffee
and snacks.
It should be noted that the beauty -barber area, sundry area, snack area, and
postal station each have potential for providing vocational opportunities to
senior citizens (qualified residents or senior center participants), and
should be considered as volunteer and employment programs are developed.
Funding would come from implementing the programs on a volunteer basis, and
maintaining them with income or special grants.

9. Administrative Spaces
The kind of offices needed for a senior center are no different from those of
any other business operation. In addition to 'the Offices for special
3),
program coordinators Stich as the Council on Aging (111190 )1r( ir„ nuc: 1. Dr.
VNA (page 3), and the food services director (pt} ). if " I
developed for the executive director, program coordinator, clerical and
receptionist support, and custodians in the senior center. Ideally, the
office space will be developed to allow flexibility in the future as the
staffing needs of the senior center change.
The kind of office space needed for a housing facility include an office for
the manager, a multi-purpose work area for duplication purposes, etc., a
reception area, and an area for custodians.
Actual office assignments, in the senior center and housing facility, will
be clarified as the management system is established. It is possible that
some staff will be shared by the two facilities.
In addition to office space, other necessary administrative spaces include
toilet rooms, storage areas including lockers, utility system
temaccmmodvolunteer
ations
(heating, ventilating and air conditioning), possiblyemployee/
lounge.
10. Flexible Undeveloped Spaces
It is preferred that not all senior center areas be totally defined at this
time. Maximum flexibility is desired. future programs might require specially
designed spaces. Two examples included a "sheltered workshop" and a day stay
or day care program.
Provision of a day care program was one of the recommendations of the
consultants. The service providers supported the idea. Space should be set
aside for a future development, however, as all other such programs, it
should only be developed after a great deal of detailed study of such factors
as cost, need, the nature of the program to be developed, and after staffing
and necessary professional supervision is assured.

Senate allocates $42,000
for senior citizen center
By BONNIE WITfENDURG
R"bw eMa wrow
An appropriations bill earmarklnl
142,000 for a senior ciumm center ai
Waterloo sailed through the Iowa
Senate Wednesday after in attempi
to remove the special appropriation
tailed.
"The specific thing I find objection•
able is that It earmarks a grtaln
amount of money for a certain
project;" said Richard Ramsey, an
Osceola Republican.
Calling the aarnurked appropris.
Una a "poor pneedeot," Ramsey said
It will start other asnston trading
votes on Issues to that they, too, can
gel money for a project of special
Interest to their home district.
"If we get back Into this, you know
what that means — the old pork•bar•
rel game, it's bad, and I thotot we'd
gotten away from that," Ramsey
said.
Uaanimoos
Ramsey's attempt to remove the
special appropriation from the bill
failed on an 10-20 vote. Shortly there-
after, the Senate approved the entire
bill on a 47-0 vote.
The bill, which passed the House
earlier this month, now goes to the
governor for his signature.
The measure appropriates about
28.4 million for various programs,
Including health programs, civil
rights and parole services, and
programs for minority, elderly and
disadvantaged persons.
Waterloo Senator lied Noltiag, a
Democrat, argued for the earmarked
funds to the Waterloo •area. The
senior citiaees' cow Is to be located
In Waterloo's predominantly black
neighborhood.
Nailing said elderly blacks In
Waterloo have never felt free to mix
with whiles and'ge orally aro not
Involved In any of the senior clUpn
programs available at an existing
center In another Part of Waterloo.
Early Criticism -
Soma lawmakers criticised the
Iowa Commission on the Aging
earlier this year for not providing
money for the proposed center with
state tax dollars given the commis.
slon for this year,
Some commission members said at
the time that the Legislature did not
spell out what It wanted In the law
appropriating the money.
Cedar Falls Republican Willard
Hamer said Wednesday: "Maybe we
ought to give them some legislative
Insight."
And James Gallagher of Jesup,
whose Senate district Includes Black
Hawk County, commented: "To me it
sounds like a goad Investment of
142,000 If we can help some people
help themselves."
Senator John Murray (Rep., Ames)
defended the Aging Commission,
saying money was not provided for a
Waterloo center because the applies -
don for the money arrived late, was
iot specific, and "had no accountabll-
ty built Into It."
And, he argued, the discretion In
letermining locations for senior
.enters should be left with the Aging
;ommisslon.
The 142,000 Is part of a 1158,000
Ipproprlstion to the Aging Commis•
lon for development and mainte-
lana of senior citisen centers. The
1111s lilts that, In addition to the
ew Waterloo center, the money be
Bed to start at least three other
enlor citizen centers In the state.
The bill also Includes about
114,000 to run the new state Deport•
tent of Substance Abuse.

House votes to earmark
half of any hotel, motel tax
By CHARLEYDULLAIID
ANION, Inn wMw
The Iowa House changed Its mind
Wednesday and decided that at last
50 percent of a proposed tax on hotel
and motel receipts should be
earmarked for specific purposes,
On a 1e-42 vote, the House adopted
an amendment that would require
cities and counties that ley the tax to
spend at last hall of the revenue on
recreation, cosvmUoa, calturel and
entertainment facilities, or for the
promotion and encouragement of
tourist and convention business.
The amendment was defeated
e5-/6 earlier Wednesday but the
House later reversed Itself.
Wednesday was the second day of
debate on the bill to grant cities and
counties the authority to imposo a tax
Of up to 7 percent on hotel and motel
room charges,
First for Local option
The House did not take'flnal action
on the bill, which was passed by the
Iowa Senate last year, Debate is
expected to resume today.
1! the legislation pales both houses
and Is signed by the governor, It
would be Iowa's first local option tax.
Most of the discussion Wednesday
centered on whether a portion of the
tax should be earmarked, Several
proposals to set aside part of the
money for various purposes were
defeated before the House settled on
the proposal to earmark 50 percent of
the receipts.
The tax was proposed to provide an
additional source of revenue for fl-
nanclally 'strapped cities and
counties. A 7 percent tax, It it were
levied statewide, would generate
about $7 million for cities and
counties, according to the LeagM of
Iowa Municipalities. Abuat $1.6
million of that would go, to Des
Moines,
Discretion Urged
Opponents of earmarking sold city
councils and county bards of super.
visors should be allowed to decide
how to use that money,
"We call It a local option ax but
we are not leaving it up to the local
government," said Representative
Neal Hines, a Nevada Democrat, "Il
learmarkingl Is another big brother
dictate to local government."
Representative B. Joseph Rings, a
Marion Democrat, said earmarking
"would severely limit the ability of
local officials to meet local needs "
Setting aside So percent ofthe tax
for creation, convention, culteral
and erenlertalnment lacllllla, or
prometlon of tourlem and convention
buslnea would slid the Industry that is
being to:ed, said Representative
Richard Byerly, an Ankeny
iomocrat.
Democratic Representative ton
Spencer of Ruthven said money used
to encourage tourism would generate
additional revenue.
Referendum Amendment
"You would get the money back
two -fold if you spent it on tourism,"
he said.
The House Tuesday night added an
amendment that would require a
Public. referendum before the tax
could be imposed. The House voted to
reconsider that action Wednesday but
adJourned before making ■ final
decision.
Under the Senate version, the tax
could be levied by a city council or
county board of supervisor, without
voter approval.

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING

3. Improve collective bargaining relationships with certified
bargaining units while maintaining cost levels. (On going)
a. Management position improved in following areas:
Police Contract: Grievance procedure, sick leave
abuse policy, clothing and equipment and pregnany leave.
Fire Contract: Overtime authorization (minor).
AFSCME Contract: Hours of work, overtime equalization,
and initial pay rates.
Each contract was completed through voluntary settlement with-
in the dollar limits established by the City Council and
City Manager. Memos detailing specific changes in each
contract have previously been furnished.
Dates of meetings are attached to this report.
b. To administer contract commitments so as to maximize
union stability throughout the year. (On going)
Grievances are now reported through Personnel.
c. To strengthen data systems for future negotiations.
(On going)
The management of information for collective bargaining
within City organization continues to be a problem.
Payroll and personnel information which should be
readily available under optimal bargaining situations
is difficult to locate and must be compiled manually.
Because the year end report of payroll information
(which is used to prepare seniority lists, EEO reports,
and which could be used for costing out Union and City
proposals), was lost, the Finance Department has made
this area a top priority.
The Finance Director has been exceptionaly cooperative
in working through these problems and understands all
parts of the problem at this time. We are optimistic
that more information will be available for next fall's
negotiations.
d. To decrease the amount of non-productive paid time, e.g.,
holidays, vacation, sick leave through contract
negotiations. (March 1978)
There was no increase in the amount of non-productive
paid time as a result of the FY78 negotiations.
e. Firm up temporary disability policy through negotiations.

Except for a minor change in the pregnancy leave

this goal and work on it will be abandoned for FY78.
f. To develop depth in negotiating team skills in the
administrative staff.. (July 1978)
Significant development of negotiating skills occurred
in these areas:
a. Three new first line supervisors actively
participated in team work and now consider
themselves adequately "broken in."
b. The Finance Director has worked through
several of the complex costing questions
and provided invaluable assistance in locating

STAFF PRESENT: Sally Baldus, Pam Ramser
The meeting was called to order at 7:10 p.m. Discussion centered
on the over Human Services work plan for 1978 and on the de-
tailed subcommittee work plans. The committee suggested that
meetings be planned with mayors of small towns in Johnson County
for the purpose of providing information on the project, as well
as a chance for discussion of concerns.
Areas of overlap in subcommittee work plans were resolved. The
Justice Subcommittee will further address concerns involving
victims of violent crimes, other than spouse abuse. The recom-
mendation for a substance -abuse counselor for youth will be handled
by the Mental Hoalth/Chemi.cal Dependency Subcommittee. Implementa-
tion of several recommendations was discussed. The make up of the
Technical Advisory Subcommittee, which will have its initial meet-
ing sometime in March, was addressed. Rex suggested that some
aspects of its work might he coordinated with Barry Hokanson.
Marge Penney was also thought to be a guod resource person for
this subcommittee.
Subcommittee members felt that it would be desirable to have a re-
search assistant or planning intern assist with the project, due
to two staff members leaving as of April 1 and May 1, respectively.
It is uncertain, however, whether anyone will be available.
Finally, subcommittee meeting schedules were discussed. The meeting
adjourned at 8:25 p.m.

HANDOUT: Possible Grouping of Recommendations for Agency Meetings
and Discussion
The meeting was called to order at 7:15 P.M. Subcommittee members
discussed protective services to victims of crime as an area for
further surly. Two aspects of this area were mentioned:
1) Short-term emotional and material assistance of an emer-
gency nature and
2) protective services for those who are unable to take care
of themselves.
The subcommittee Would focus its study on the second of these aspects.
JCRPC staff was asked to talk with the Iowa City Police about their
experience with victimization of the elderly and to research model
programs for victims of crimes who don't qualify for traditional
assistance programs (i.e., fail to meet guidelines for income, etc.)
Subcommittee members urged that restitution and compensation be con-.
sidered as two distinct components of any program to aid victims.
Pam told the subcommittee that the staff had received a call from
Donna Chandler at Vocational Rehabilitation, who said that two state-
ments in the Adult Correctiwls profile are misleading:
1) Eligibility for services (p.1.3) is based on medical docu-
mentation of a physical or mental handicap to employment
and is not due to inadequate funding; and
2)
recommendation M 4 (p.20) is not really necessary, as
Voc Rehab has personnel at all incarcerating institutions
(over)
11114M MI( lie[ All
-z -
in Iowa and the certification process can be initiated
sufficiently prior to a prisoner's release.
Donna also said that Voc Rehab would like to have a representative
on the Human Services Committee. Subcomriittee members said that
they would like to get Donna's suggestion for such a representative
and to have a meeting with corrections personnel and someone from
Voc Rohab to discuss the above concerns.
The remainder of the meeting uas devoted to discussion of recommen-
dations and development of a work plan to implement them (see
attachment). In the area of coordination of services for youth, the
subcommittee wishes to place an emphasis on recreation and outreach.
Meeting adjourned at 9:15 P.M.

SPRING REMTNDF'R
ON BUILDING CODE INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS
March 1978
INSPECTIONS - Sec. 304.
(a) General. All construction or work for which a permit is required shall be subject to
inspection by the Building Official, and certain types of construction shall have contin-
uous inspection by special inspectors, as specified in Section 305. A survey of the lot
may be required by the Building Official to verify compliance of the structure with
approved plans.
(b) Inspection Record Card. Work requiring a building permit shall not be commenced until
the permit holder or his agent shall have posted an inspection record card in a conspic-
uous place on the front premises and in such position as to allow the Building Official
conveniently to make the required entries thereon regarding inspection of the work. This
card shall be maintained in such position by the permit holder until the Certificate of
Occupancy has been issued.
(c) Approvals Required. No work shall be done on any part of the building or structure
beyond the point indicated in each successive inspection without first obtaining the
written approval of the Building Official. Such written approval shall be given only
after an inspection shall have been made of each successive step in the construction as
indicated by each of the inspections required in subsection (d). There shall be a final
inspection and approval on all buildings when completed and ready for occupancy.
(d) lie wired Ins ections. Reinforcing steel or structural framework of any part of any
buil ing or structure shall not be covered or concealed without first obtaining the
approval of the Building Official. The Building Official, upon notification from the
permit holder or his agent, shall make the following inspections and shall either approve
that portion of the construction as completed or shall notify the permit holder or his
agent wherein the same fails to comply with this Code.
1. FOUNDATION INSPECTION: To be made after trenches are excavated and forms erected
and when all materials for the foundation are delivered to the job. Where con-
crete from a central mixing plant (commonly termed "transit mixed") is to be
used, materials need not be on the job.
2. FRAME INSPECTION: To be made after the roof, all framing, fire -blocking, and
bracing are in place and all pipes, chimneys, and vents are complete.
3. LATH AND/OR WALLBOARD INSPECTION: To be made after all lathing and/or wallboard,
interior and exterior, is in place; but before any plastering is applied or before
wallboard joints and fasteners are taped and finished.
4. FINAL INSPECTION: To be made after building is completed and ready for occupancy.
(c) Otl�cr Inspections. In addition to the called inspections specified above, the Build-
ing 0 ic�.1 may maw or require any other inspections of any construction work to
ascertain compliance with the provisions of this Code and other laws which are enforced
by the Building Department. For the purpose of determining compliance with Section 104(h),
the Building Official may cause any structure to be reinspected.
(f) Reinspections. A reinspection fee may be assessed for each inspection or reinspection
when such portion of work for which inspection is called is not complete or when correc-
tions called for are not made.
This subsection is not to be interpreted as requiring reinspection fees the first time a
job is rejected for failure to comply with the requirements of this Code, but as control-
ling the practice of calling for inspections before the job is ready for such inspection
or reinspection. Reinspection fees may be assessed when the permit card is not properly
posted on the work site, the approved plans are not readily available to the inspector,
for failure to provide access on the date for which inspection is requested, or for devi-
ating from plans requiring the approval of the Building Official,
We hope this will help clarify some of the many questions we get each year about field
inspections.

Attention RrmnrlcZi.ng Crrttrrarl, PP -
Here are some interesting facts and figures
about the Rehab program's first year. A
total of 22 clients were served (approx. 30
contracts) by our program. The value of
all contracts exceeded $200,000 for the 12
month period beginning February 1977. In
addition, we have received bids for another
$140,000 for which contracts will be exe-
cuted this spring. Throughout the year we
have worked with more than 20 different
contractors.
What about this year? We've got another
$400,000, so let's work together to use it
up, if there are any questions about bid-
ding this work, see Jim Leighton or Dean
Burkett at the Civic Center. (354-1800,
ext. 328 or 336).
HOUSING ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
During February, 1978, 17 units were brought
into the Section 8 Program. There are 18
units left in Section 23.
Total units, Section 8 = 273.

T0: Iowa City Council and the Ecumenical Housing Corporation
FROM: Clayton Ringgenberg, Moderator of the Task Force
DATE: March 13, 1978
I need to clarify one part of our March 10 report to you.
1. See page 8, item IA and page 1, item IA. -- After much disucssion,
the Task Force approved, with two "no" votes, that there should be a
multi-purpose meeting room and two assembly rooms in the Senior Center.
But we also had discussed the puss tibtli y of this being one large room,
divided as described on page 1, item IA. The Task Force did not catch that
inconsistency when we reviewed the edited report. This, of course, will
be an important matter for the architect to consider. I just want to make
it clear that the Task Force preference is for three rooms rather than one,
if possible, for best use and accessibility of this space.
Also we meant to include the following paragraph on page 1, item 1A:
It is considered essential that the participants themselves, through a
Participants and/or Residents Council, should play the primary role in the
actual development of the programs to be implemented in such space.
Because of the 120 to 130 occupants of the apartments and the projected
total of 300 senior center participants, the spatial design for each area
should accommodate such numbers of persons.

Dear Mary,
ILUAI< RAI'!Jj ARU OL.
March 10, 1978
As you already know, several weeks ago I said in a Design Review Com-
mittee meeting that I thought it might be worth considering some name for
the Dubuque -College street mall other than "City Plaza," and I suggested
"Carondelet Plaza" as a possible alternative. (The name, incidentally, is
pronounced in various ways, but the most usual thing for English-speaking
people, I think, is simply to run together the three English words car, on,
and delay.)
There are three considerations that may be worth the attention of
Council and of other citizens:
1. Carondelet was the last (or almost — see below) governor of t11e
Province of Louisiana, of which Iowa was a part. This would fit in logically
with the name "Governor Lucas Square," which is being used for the open space
planned for the intersection of Dubuque and College streets, since Lucas was
the first governor under the American flag.
2. There is something to be said for a name that is distinctive and
has some particular connection with local history. "City Plaza" seems pretty
dull and might be anywhere. I think many people would rather have a name
that is specially our own.
3. It seems to me a pleasant name, cheerful and musical.
Baron Francois Louis Hector de Carondelet was born in Noyelles, in French
Flanders, about 1748, the son of an Irish noblewoman and a French viscount of
ancient lineage and importance. He entered the service of the Spanish Crown
and in 1791 was named Governor of the Province of Louisiana, a position he held
until his appointment as Governor of Ecuador in 1799. He died in 1807.
lie was a distinguished governor. The Dictionary of American Biography
described him as "a man of energy, moderately enlightened, conscientious and
brave." He is the only governor of colonial Louisiana listed in the Dictionary.
Among other distinctions, he extended toleration to Protestants for the first

time, gave rights of free navigation and commerce on the Mississippi to
United States citizens, and issued a land grant in 1796 to Julien Dubuque,
who thus became the first landowner in Iowa. The whole Province grew and
prospered under his regime.
As every schoolboy knows (except me, who realized it only when I began
to look into Iowa history a few years ago) all of what is now the central
United States, between Pittsburgh and the Rockies, was once part of France,
starting in 1673 with Marquette's and Joliet's voyage down the Mississippi
and with La Salle's proclamation of French rule in 1681. In the French and
Indian War France was defeated by the British and in 1762 gave up Canada
and all territory east of the Mississippi to Britain and everything west of
it to Spain. The Spaniards took over the government in the late '60s, but
they did little to change French institutions, culture or language, and
the flow of French settlers continued. Louisiana prospered, and by 1800
there were something like 70,000 whites, mostly French, in the province.
In 1800, Louisiana was transferred back to France, by that time a Republic
run by Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon was afraid that New Orleans would be
seized by his enemy, Great Britain, and to avoid this he almost at once sold
the whole province, out of hand, to the United States administration of
Thomas Jefferson. The Americans took control in New Orleans in December,
1803, and in Saint Louis, the capital of Upper Louisiana, of which Iowa was
a part, in March, 1805.
During the four or five years between Carondelet's departure and the
establishment of United States rule, Louisiana was pretty much on its own.
No one was clear what was going on - the authorities in Saint Louis apparently
had not even learned they had become French again until French and American
officers appeared in March, 1804. There were several people who acted as
governors or lieutenant governors in New Orleans and Saint Louis, but none
of them held office for long or had much authority, or even knew what country
they were supposed to be representing. So Baron Carondelet may be regarded
as really the last governor to preside over Iowa under European rule.
