Regarding Lakeside Route and bus stop on Washington, Mose advised that a fence would separate the construction site from the bus stop. On the N. Dubuque route, buses can exit onto Dubuque easier with a traffic signal, and there are not many riders as Cambus goes thru every 7 minutes. Direction of W. Benton route was explained. Changes for E. College will be an increase in the level of service. The whole system has not seriously been re-evaluated in seven years. deProsse questioned what the transit drivers thought of the changes. City Mgr. Berlin stated that the City has a contract with the Union to deal with these issues, and there is now a grievance on file on the matter of routes, so he objected to the discussion. Council discussed reduced fares, raised fares, rush-hour service, night service. Steve Shupe, union steward stated that the drivers wanted schedules to reflect the driving times they experience. Neuhauser commented that 40 min. headways is a policy for Council consideration. Mayor Vevera announced that Council would discuss bus service to University Heights. BUS SERVICE TO UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS Mose favored service to University Heights residents, but suggested po3tponing service until after the present crunch is over --May 1st. The majority of Councilmembers favored development of a formula for costing out services, and development of a timetable in the meantime.

VISITORS: Mary Abboud, KXIC Radio; Clara Oelson; Jane Eikleberry; Marcia MacAulay, student from the University of Iowa; Roger Thurow from the Daily Iowan; and Colleen Jones from the University of Iowa's Human Rights Committee. RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE CITY COUNCIL: The following resolution was adopted and passed by the majority of the Human Rights Commissioners: The Iowa City Human Rights Commission, in its advisory responsibility to the City Manager and the City Council, recommends the City provide work conditions and requirements conducive for women in non-traditional jobs in light of its affirmative action/equal opportunity policies. We further recommend the City refrain from precipitous actions in the Linda Eaton firefighter case, investigate the facts and become fully apprised of the ramifications and legal implications of this case in order to avoid discriminatory practices. Details are under "Relevant Discussion", Section 3. RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE CITY MANAGER AND STAFF: The Resolution recommended to the City Council was also addressed to the City Manager and staff. SUMMARY OF RELEVANT DISCUSSION: The January 22, 1979 meeting was called to order at 7:30 p.m. Braverman moved that the December 18, 1978 minutes be approved and accepted. Munzenmaier seconded and all commissions voted 'aye'. The City Council appointed Human Rights Commissioners Richard McCartt, Angelita Reyes, Linda McGuire and Richard 3l1 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB C[DAR RAPIDS -DES 110114CS MINUTES HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION JANUARY 22, 1979 PAGE 2 Yates as new Commission members at their December 19, 1978 Council meeting. Each member and staff person introduced themselves. The Commissioners discussed the following items: 1. Changes in 601A. The staff was requested to present to the Commission at the meeting an interpretation and re- evaluation of their positions regarding changes to the local ordinance that would be advisable for the Commission and the City Council to adopt, given the fact that the State Civil Rights Commission responded to Zukrowski's inquiry at a late point in the year. Unfortunately, the staff has not had an opportunity to take a look at the State's input subsequent to receiving it, and making a final report. The Legal Department advised that complaints of discrimination can still be accepted and investigated, but if they are filed after January 1, 1979, it may not be possible to proceed with the resolution of some of the complaints. The reason being is that the remedy section of the State Statute has changed. Commissioners should be aware that if a complaint is accepted, investigated and subsequently remedied, even after an ordinance has been passed and adopted, there is a possibility that the legality of taking a complaint may be challenged. If this would happen to occur the assumption is that an ordinance would be finalized within six months time, which is the new filing deadline of 180 days and techinically the Commission could refile the complaint on the same basis and proceed to resolve the case. A letter has been drafted to the Attorney General's Office asking their opinions on some of the areas in question on proposed changes in the ordinance with a final version pending the subsequent review of the materials that were sent in by the State. Next month's training session will deal in going through the ordinance in more detail. Costantino made a motion to nominate Agnes Kuhn as temporary vice -chairperson. Munzenmaier seconded. Marcus moved that nominations be closed. All Commissioners voted 'aye'. Agnes will serve as temporary vice -chairperson until final elections are conducted in February of 1979. 3. Costantino moved that regarding the situation request to nurse her so be moved and passed as a City Manager and the reading of the statement seconded by Marcus. a statement that she had prepared of the female firefighter and her n while on duty in the fire station resolution and be presented to the City Council. The first initial was up for discussion after it was Mr. Helling distributed to the MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES 1101nES MINUTES I HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION JANUARY 22, 1979 PAGE 3 Commissioners the news release that was given to the general public on the 22nd of January so that they can have better raverman askedwhat nrole then Commi Commission had iat the n ha dlue singBinternal disputes. The ordinance states that the Commission is to make recommendations to the City Manager and City Council regarding discrimination complaints. The staff wanted to stress to the Commissioners the importance of their understanding why the Commission does not handle internal disputes. Ryan informed the Commission that if the Commission did investigate internal disputes they would be both the investigator and the investigated and that would be a conflict of interest. She also stressed that any City employee who does have a complaint against the City has the State Civil Cwilth. Claramission and OelsonEcommentedctoC in whih they Commission regarding her views and feelings, and urged the iCommission to support the female firefighter. After much discussion Braverman pointed out to the Commissioners the importance of each member basing their opinions on merits as they see it without any outside influence regardless of which side of the issue the information comes from. The majority of the Commissioners felt that some type of statement regarding this issue should be made and presented to the City Manager and City Council, however, not the initial statement that was made by Costantino. Braverman then moved that the motion made by Costantino be withdrawn with the understanding that a subcommittee of three be appointed to immediately draw up a motion that would be submitted for the Commission's approval by the end of the meeting. Marcus seconded. Costantino, Marcus and McCartt then left the meeting to draw up another statement. Upon returning to the meeting, Costantino, Marcus and McCartt had the resolution ready. After a few minor word amendments and changes the final Resolution recommended to the City Council (see "Recommendation to City Council") was passed by a 7 -to -2 yes vote, with Braverman and McCartt voting NAY, and all Commissioners voting AYE. 4. The orientation program has tentatively postponed until next Sunday, the 4th of February at 2:00 p.m., at Mace Braverman's house. The meeting is still pending the Open Meetings Law which states that any type of meeting held by the Commission must be open to the public. Zukrowski is to check with the Legal Department to see if there would be any problems with Braverman holding the orientation program at his home. The idea was also expressed that it would be good to invite old Commissioners. They might have MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB MAR RAPIOs.OF..s MOInCs i ! l MINUTES HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION JANUARY 22, 1979 PAGE 4 input that new Commissioners feel would be valuable and suggestions of things that would have helped them during their term on the Human Rights Commission. 5. The Open Meetings Law as explained by Zukrowski is that the Commission will have stricter guidelines to allow executive session or closed meetings. Bob Bowlin, Assistant City Attorney, is to give Zukrowski an interpretation of what functions can be closed sessions or open sessions, for example, conciliation teams, subcommittee meetings such as working on a brochure and so on, and whether they can be conducted without being published and having an agenda put out. The staff is to get back to the Commission on these guidelines. 6. Braverman had no committee report on affirmative action at this meeting. 7. Zukrowski announced that she hadn't gotten any feedback from the Commissioners from the memorandum that she mailed to them earlier in the week regarding a news article that was in the Iowa City Press -Citizen about the Iowa City Chamber of Commerce and women members. Jane Eikleberry commented that she had seen no positive changes since that press release. Braverman, who is a member of the Commerce, is going to ask the members about that press release and how they stand on the situation of women members in the Iowa City Chamber of Commerce. 8. Zukrowski announced that she was at the City Council budget consideration meeting to represent the Commission. Everything went smoothly, however, felt the Commission's request for another part-time staff person would not be granted. 9. Munzenmaier indicated that he had called the EEOC regarding a case in which he felt the complainant was short-changed because, in his opinion, there was a definite case of probable cause.

CITY MANAGER'S CONFERENCE ROOM MEMBERS PRESENT: Yates, McGuire, McCartt, Kuhn, Costantino, Munzenmaier, Marcus, Braverman (arrived late) MEMBERS ABSENT: Reyes STAFF PRESENT: Zukrowski This meeting was an in-house training session for Human Rights Commissioners and open to the public. The agenda only included a review of the Human Rights Commission structure, goals and objectives for the Commission, complaint process and the function of staff support. Consequently, there were no recommendations to the City Council or the City Manager and staff. SUMMARY OF RELEVANT DISCUSSION: The meeting began at 2:00 p.m and adjourned at 4:00 p.m. Pat Gilroy, a former Commissioner, attended the meeting and participated in the discussion. 1. The in-house training session began with an historical perspective given by M. Costantino. There was a local Commission in Iowa City prior to a state Commission. The ordinance at that time was based on good intentions and did not have any enforcement powers or any professional staff. In 1963 the most critical need identified was a fair housing ordinance. Since there was no staff assigned to the Commission, the Commission did the information gathering, analysis and meeting with community groups. Realtors were contacted to relieve their anxieties and to document rental problems and purchasing. The League of Women Voters helped by identifying student residents and the type of housing students had. The League also compiled a list of landlords and reviewed approximately 400 landlords. Typical fears of the landlords included items such as what would the neighbors say regarding minority tenants. Subsequently, a fair housing ordinance was passed. In 1964 the Commission began documenting employment discrimination. Around 1972 to 1913 a fair employment section was incorporated into the ordinance. At that time, there was no permanent staff but an assistant city attorney worked with the Commission. Around 1975 the MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES 14016LS 361 Human Rights Commission February 11, 1979 Page 2 Commission convinced the Council of a need for permanent staff to devote time and full attention to investigating complaints. Subsequently, a specialist position and a Department of Human Relations with a director were established. The director had responsiblity for supervising the personnel and Civil Rights Specialists. Costantino felt that it is important and of prime concern to have a strongly developed ordinance and trained staff to implement the ordinance. 2. Commissioners received a list of current members with their business and home telephone numbers. This is for Commissioners use when necessary to contact another member. 3. The current ad hoc committee structure was also briefly discussed. New members were apprised that in the past the Commission had standing committees. These were eliminated and replaced by ad hoc committees comprised of including individual were interested in working on special topics. The Commission was apprised of some of the projects completed in the past such as brochures and newsletters and public service announcements that were implemented to reach the community and identify the existance of the Human Rights Commission. There was concern by new members whether the community is actually aware of the availability of a Commission. In addition, there was concern with the Commission's image in the community and whether community residents felt the Commission was an effective organization for alleviating discrimination. There was a concern regarding the Civil Rights Specialist involvement with the Linda Eaton situation. Some Commissioners expressed concern that the Specialist's involvement has damaged the image of the Commission in the community. Costantino expressed that the Specialist should have become involved as an advocate or a representative of the Human Rights Commission rather than as a personnel representative. Zukrowski indicated she did not have any feedback indicating her involvement had Negatively affected the Commission and cited four com- plaints that were in the process of being filled. . The Commission then subsequently discussed the problem with not being able to receive complaints of discrimination by City employees. There was a concern that the Commission cannot investigate and make available this process to City employees. Commissioners also discussed the fact that the Commission does not accept M MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DE.S MOINES Human Rights Commission February 11, 1979 Page 3 complaints against other political subdivisions such as the County, the University, the State, and the school system. It was felt that with the exclusion of these large employers including the City, the Commission is available to community residents only for a small percentage of employers in town. The Commission was concerned with their effectiveness in dealing with private employers in resolving discrimination complaints since the Commission itself did not have any enforcement powers regarding complaints against the City itself. As a result, Commissioners discussed implementing some sort of grievance procedure available to City employees with problems of discrimination. Costantino indicated that in the past City employees could approach the Commission for resolution and assistance with discrimination complaints against the City. Costantino indicated that she had been involved in this capacity herself. Zukrowski noted that the City Manager in a press conference regarding the City's position on Linda Eaton had indicated that the Commission and community residents could input regarding the City's employment and personnel policies. The Commission's relationship with the City Council was also briefly discussed. Commissioners were apprised that they have a dual role, that is, as an enforcement agency for the local Non-discrimination Ordinance and as an advisory body to the City Council. In the past the City Council has been concerned with some Commission activities reaching beyond the scope of the Commission's authority and responsibility. Commission goals and objectives for fiscal years 1977, 1979 and 1980 were also reviewed. The Specialist noted that these were included so Commission members could see what activities have been accomplished and what the current objectives are. The Specialist indicated that at times the objectives established are forgotten. It may be to the advantage of the Commission to consider these objectives when planning for calendar year 1979 activities. It was the Specialist's feeling that the Chair of the Commission will have a great impact in directing the Commission's activities. It appeared, however, that the Commission's concerns focused on implementing more outreach and educational programs for the City and the community and becoming involved with the affirmative action aspect of City employment. The Commission very briefly discussed the complaint process. Since an in-depth discussion of this procedure was not completed, discussion of the complaint process and function of staff support will be included in the February orientation session. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES t40114C5 Human Rights Commission February 11, 1979 Page 4 8. Other items that were discussed included the following: Munzenmaier is to contact the director of the Des Moines Human Rights Committee to investigate that city's Commission structure and funding source; the Commission felt an outreach program in the community needs to first identify community groups and include presentations by the Commission on the group's agenda; Costantino and Munzenmaier indicated they have not been notified of Civil Service Commission meetings. Notices will be mailed to both individuals; the Specialist determined the preference of each Commission member regarding a telephone number to be listed on the newsletter; McCartt requested his mailing address be changed to his business; Costantino felt the number of complaints in 1978 had dropped off since only 14 formal complaints were filed. Zukrowski indicated that in 1977 13 formal complaints were filed; clarification of what a Commission oriented complaint is was requested.

Building Committee #3 reported that a list of prospective donors and gift ideas were being developed for the Private Gifts fund drive. Regarding the CL Systems, Inc. contract, Bezanson noted that the firm had complied with language revisions requested by the Board. Eggers noted that one omission was the clause that documentation of the system soft- ware be put in escrow as a way of protecting the Iowa City Public Library 362 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOINES i MINUTES LIBRARY BOARD OF TRUSTEES REGULAR MEETING - JANUARY 25, 1979 PAGE 2 ' in the case of the demise of the company, but CLSI has agreed to pro- vide a letter to cover this. Kirkman requested that the insurance coverage be updated to include the computer equipment. The Board rati- fied the CL Systems, Inc. contract. Kirkman/Richerson. The Hansen Lind Meyer contract was signed by President Bezanson and Vice -President Moore. Board members raised several questions regarding the lease with Hawkeye Cable vision, Inc. (ATC) as follows: 1. What should the lease contain (maintenance, utilities cost, conversion)? 2. How long a lease is necessary and is it renewable? 3. Who pays for moving cable facilities to new library? 4. Formal binding lease not recommended until after bids are let unless a conditional intent to lease will suffice. 5. Hawkeye should initiate the lease. 6. Recommend calling University of Oklahoma who has similar lease with ATC. Tiffany hoped the City would have a response from ATC at the next City Council meeting on January 30, 1979 . The Board could not yet review/approve the schematic phase of building design as it does not have the final schematics. The architects will need to wait for the results of soil borings in order to give an updated cost estimate. The Board approved staff member Carol Spaziani's proposal for coordinating building plans and equipment with representatives of the handicapped. The Board asked to be informed of any upcoming meeting so a representative of the Board could also attend and be made aware of any long-term finan- cial implications if special facilities could be provided through gift or grant funds. While reviewing the FY1979 Second Quarter Goals and Statistics Report, the Board noted that the number of calls unable to be transferred to the Information Desk has risen 348, and Eggers pointed out the staff limit to accept calls has been reached. Number of publications printed were up 818 largely due to the referendum.

Collection growth can be monitored less closely now that more space is assured. Public expectations about library service are also rising as a result of the election. More staff time for planning is now an acute rather than just a major need. A 9% drop in hours open has brought heavier per hour rates at all service desks.

Engle, President of E & S Electrical Contractors, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and his attorney, Mr. Bill Neppel. Chairperson Hynes called the meeting to order and stated that the purpose of the meeting was to hear the appeal of E & S Electrical Contractors regarding the assessment by Mr. Paul Bowers of a triple permit fee on their job at A.C.T. in Iowa City. Mr. Hynes referred to a memo dated January 4, 1979 to Mike Kucharzak from Glenn Siders stating the City's position regarding the appeal. Mr. Engle then distributed copies of a memo addressed to the Iowa City Electrical Board of Appeals dated 2/5/79. There followed a dis- cussion about a discrepancy between the two memos. Mr. Bowers then stated that there was an error in Mr. Sider's memo and that he had not actually talked to Mr. Engle in June of 1978 when he visited the A.C.T. job -site. His conversation had been with Mr. Larry Swann, the E & S superintendent on the job, who called and left word with the office personnel. Mr. Engle stated that he never received the message. Mr. Siders asked Mr. Engle what was actually being appealed. Mr. Engle stated that it was the assessment of the triple fee. Siders explained that the Electrical Board cannot hear an appeal on fees. Mr. Neppel explained that they are basing their appeal on Ordinance #77-2862 which was in effect at the time the work was started. Mr. Bowlin stated that he felt the Board could make a determination on which ordinance should be enforced. He stated that the 1978 National Electrical Code was adopted by Ordinance #78-2884 on March 20, 1978. A lengthy discussion followed. Mr. Neppel summarized by stating that ordinance #77-2862 is the appropriate ordinance to enforce in this case. Mr. Bowlin stated that the City's position is that the fee schedule in effect at the time you apply for a permit is what you pay. The Ordinance in effect on December 19, 1978 when the permit was obtained is #78-2884. Chairperson Hynes asked for comments from the Board. Mr. Turner stated that he felt Ordinance #77-2862 should apply. Mr. Flannery noted that quite a bit of time had elapsed without a permit. Mr. Eyman felt that safety should be the first concern but he also felt that #77-2862 should apply. Mr. Eyman then moved that the Board revoke the decision of the Electrical Inspector to apply Ordinance #78-2884 and resolution #78-393 when he set the fees for the electrical permit for A.C.T. Turner seconded the motion and the vote was 2 - 1 in favor of the motion with Mr. Hynes abstaining. The motion passed with a majority. Mr. Eimen then made a motion to clarify the previous motion by adding that Ordinance #77-2862 should apply governing this permit. Mr. Turner seconded. The motion passed with a 2 - 1 vote. Mr. Siders noted that the fees are included in the ordinance and that a new permit should be obtained within a week or two.

SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION Chairperson Bill Gilpin brought the Riverfront Commission meeting to order. The minutes for the joint meeting with Parks and Recreation on January 10th were discussed. The Riverfront Commission requested the following changes for the joint minutes be: under DISCUSSION OF THE RIVERFRONT AND ITS PROPOSED BUDGET, paragraph two, sentance one should read, "Referring to the Riverfront Commission's proposed hudget, Gilpin reported that the $2,755 for development of the River Corridor Overlay Zone had been approved and that the City Council had allocated $75,000 for Riverfront improvements from the City's Block Grant funds. Paragraph three, sentance one should read, "Gilpin indicated that the Riverfront Commission felt that the best use of the Block Grant funds would be for a River Corridor trail system with the Recreation Commission constructing a boat ramp." Fountain's name was added to the list of members present for the Riverfront Commission meeting. Both sets of minutes were approved as corrected. JOHNSON COUNTY HERITAGE TRUST PRESENTATION Gilpin introduced Donna Epley, representing the Johnson County Heritage Trust. Epley then introduced her co-worker, Betsy Hillman and explained to the Commission that the Trust was a private corporation trying to acquire land for preservation or study i through gift or by purchase. Presentation of a slide show was followed by a question and answer session. Fountain asked if the Trust was on or off tax roles. Epley replied since the corpora- tion was a non-profit organization it was exempt from taxes. Gilpin inquired how much money the corporation had for its use. Hillman said at this present time there was no purchasing power. Fahr asked what the membership total was, and Millman replied there were 64 supporting members. Epley commented that at this time the Trust was trying to get people interested in the program. Persons had brought to the attention of the Trust certain land the Trust could possibly purchase. Knight suggested explor- ing what Manchester, Iowa did with the marsh land, and to check into the old Girl Scout camp, (Camp Cardinal), along Clear Creek. Gilpin suggested the Englert Track should be investigated since it was presently on the open market. The Commission thanked Epley and Hillman for their presentation. 36S MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOINES --, MINUTES RIVERFRONT COMMISSION FEBRUARY 7, 1979 -- 7:30 P.M. PAGE 2 REPORT FROM OTHER COMMISSIONS Parks and Recreation -- James Berry -- At the last meeting of the Parks and Recreation Commission the boat ramp in Napoleon Park was discussed and Dennis Showalter was asked to present plans for the ramp for discussion at the next meeting. Planning and Zoning -- Juanita Vetter -- Vetter reported that the new zoning ordinance would not be completed for review by the Commission until early summer. DISCUSSION OF THE CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS ON THE FY80 BUDGET Gilpin explained that the Public Works Department budget did not include funding for landscaping the City Service area on South Riverside Drive and Highway 6. Knight suggested using materials, (trees, benches, tables, etc.) from the downtown mini - parks in this area. A recommendation to City Council that the Riverfront Commission wishes to reemphasize its recommendations made in a letter to the Mayor and City Council that funds for landscaping the area of the City Service Buildings on River- side Drive and Highway 6 be included in the FY80 CIP budget allocation for construction and development in this area was moved by Baker and seconded by Knight; motion approved unanimously 9-0. Gilpin explained the City Council had said no formal action was needed for approval of the allocation of $30,000 for a bikeway and $7,500 for administration costs. Gilpin felt that the Riverfront Commission should have more publicity. Milkman said when the CDBG funds were firmly allocated, a press release and some publicity in the media would be appropriate. Milkman said an update on the City-wide bikeway plan would be given in April or May. She explained at this time the staff could not handle more work but current vacancies were expected to be filled shortly. Gilpin suggested the Commission compile a list of other priorities for the remainder of the CDBG funds. He suggested the construction of a boat ramp below the Burlington Street dam on South Riverside Drive. Gilpin then read aloud a letter from the Fire Chief stating a boat ramp was needed for emergency reasons. Federal funds available through the Iowa Conservation Commission might provide a-50-50 match with CDBG funds for a boat ramp, Gilpin stated. The total cost would be approximately $28,000. Knight, Berry, Gilpin, and Fahr agreed to survey the river bank between Burlington Street and Highway 6 for a suitable ramp location. Other items discussed were the need for parking for fishermen below the Burlington Street dam, and the possibility of providing access to the river on the east bank below the dam. Mentioned was also made of the possibility of acquiring some of the floodplain land south of the city limits on the west bank of the river to provide a marsh environment, because Iowa City's only remaining marsh (Sycamore Marsh) was drained recently. The Commission asked Loren Horton, a member of the Committee on Community Needs, for comments from his Committee concerning the use of CDBG funds for riverfront improvement. At Baker's suggestions the Commission decided to send a letter to the Coralville City Council to express their support for maintenance of the catawalk along the Coralville MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CCDAR RAPIDS•OF.S MOINES 1-1 MINUTES RIVERFRONT COMMISSION FEBRUARY 7, 1979 -- 7:30 P.M.

CIVIC CENTER COUNCIL CHAMBERS MEMBERS PRESENT: Harris, Baldus, Conlin MEMBERS ABSENT: Hughes STAFF PRESENT: Ryan, Wilkinson, Boothroy, Schmeiser, Kraft, Dietz, Siders FORMAL ACTIONS TAKEN: 1. V-7902. That the variance for parking from 153 spaces to 96 spaces be granted subject to it being tied to the use of the premises under conditions of use similar and comparable to the use proposed, that the rough grading be accomplished to accommodate future parking, and that a variance be granted to allow this build- ing to be located on a lot in the Commercial Office Zone without frontage on a public street. SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION: Harris called the meeting to order and called for approval of the minutes of the meeting of November 16, 1978. Baldus moved, and Conlin seconded, that the minutes be approved as circulated. Motion carried unanimously. V-7901. Public hearing on an application submitted by Richard Kerber for a variance in Section 8.10.23A of the Zoning Ordinance (Front Yard) to permit construction of a single family dwelling on a lot in the 400 block of Bayard Street. i Boothroy presented an overlay of the proposed construction area and stated that it appears that the applicant also needs to request variances in the rear yard require- ment and the side yard requirement. He further stated that there is a sanitary sewer under the proposed development site. It was also mentioned that several letters and a petition objecting to the variance had been received by the City. Philip Leff, attorney for the applicant, stated that the sanitary sewer is a private sewer and that his client would be glad to furnish the sewer easement agreements. He also stated that the Kerbers agree that the house is too large for the lot and that it will be scaled down in size, which should eliminate the side yard and probably the back yard problems. He further stated that the construction of the house would present no problems regarding the obstruction of the view and have no effect on traffic safety or traffic movement. Charles Johnson, 426 Bayard, stated that he would act as a spokesman for the property owners who had signed the petition. He stated that major objections and concerns included: (1) to waive total front yard requirements is unacceptable as it would preempt the future construction of sidewalks, (2) many of the trees would be destroyed, (3) the people who are on the private sewer fear that additional construction may affect the capacity of the sewer, and (4) increased storm water runoff may cause flooding problems in the ravine to the rear of the property. Dr. Kerber stated that he realizes now that the house is too large, both physically and economically, and that he plans to scale the house down in size. He also stated that he felt that the neighborhood would be kept intact and preserved if the house is set closer to the property line. �� MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES Iaon1ES Board of Adjustment February 15, 1979 Page 2 After some discussion, Conlin asked if the property owners and the Kerbers could get together and discuss Dr. Kerber's plans for scaling down the size of the house and the property owners' objections and concerns. This suggestion was agreeable to both the applicant and Mr. Johnson. Dr. Kerber and/or his attorney will notify the Board after his plans are more finalized and after the meeting with the property owners. Board action was deferred until notification from the applicant. V-7902. Public hearing on an application submitted by American College Testing program, Inc., for a variance in Sections 8.10.23A (Front Yard), 8.10.18A (Screening), 8.10.25 (Parking), and to allow a lot located at Highway 1 and I-80, westerly of Howard Johnson's,, to be developed without frontage on a public street. Mike Kammerer of Shive-Hattery presented colored diagrams of the layout of the proposed buildings. He stated that the applicant would like to keep the zoning at CO and that changing the zoning presents timing problems. He further stated that the only variance that the applicant is requesting is the waiver of parking and approval of ACT Circle as an "officially approved place". He further explained that ACT is willing to do rough grading to accommodate future expansion of the parking area. Harris stated that he was very unclear about the meaning of an "officially approved place". It was pointed out that while there is nothing in the -Subdivision Ordinance regarding "officially approved places" that the Board of Adjustment has made these designations for years. A discussion regarding the street adjacent to the Texaco property and the Howard Johnson property followed. It was pointed out that the street is a private street and that there are problems regarding the dedication of the street. The street does meet the City standards with the exception of a curb. Mr. Kammerer mentioned that Howard Johnson's was not willing to make the necessary improvements required to dedicate the street. Baldus moved, and Conlin seconded, that the variance for parking from 153 to 96 spaces be granted and that a variance be granted to allow this building to be located on a lot in the Commercial Office Zone without frontage on a public street. After a discussion of tying the use of the property to the variance, the motion was amended by Conlin (seconded by Baldus) to read as follows: That the variance for parking from 153 spaces to 96 spaces be granted subject to it being tied to the use of the premises under conditions of use similar and comparable to the use proposed, that the rough grading be accomplished to accommodate future parking, and that a variance be granted to allow this building to be located on a lot in the Commercial Office Zone without frontage on a public street. The motion carried unanimously 3-0. The next Board of Adjustment meeting was scheduled for March 15, 1979, at 4:30 p.m. in the Civic Center Council Chambers.

I would like to see you leave this area as a natural area and make it into spark as it stands now. You could leave most of the tree's standing but send in a crew to plant additional trees. Since there are a lot of beer cans, old river bank houses and cabins, and old dumpings,it would need to be cleaned up too.

I protest because of the imposition of this ordinance on my personal Life. The city should not interfere with the hours of my sleep or those hours immediately preceeding or proceeding it. Neither should the city interfere with my right to use and possess an automobile. Public transportation is not readily available, for example, on Sundays at such times as would allow me to attend the church of my choice. Public transportation is not conducive to running errands, ie getting groceries or doing laundry. Neither is public transportation a feasible alternative for traveling to outlying communities and states. I also protest the new even -odd day ordinance since it inhibits the travel and association of my friends with me. Individuals are less Likely to drop by and visit me in the evenings because the number of available parking spaces has been reduced. I also decry the manner by which the present ordinance was passed. The present ordinance was passed and put into effect when many concerned individuals were Least likely to be around. Rather than surveying the needs of the community, a vocal minority has succeeded in making this city less Livable. As a more general matter, it seems to me that those who can least afford to pay are being socked with tickets and the burden under the present ordinance. The majority of car drivers cannot put in parking lots. Rather than correctine the parking problem by requiring landlords to put in parking lots, you are assessing tennants with tickets. (Or is this your manner for financing an inadequate snow removal budget). Under the present arrangement, landlords have no incentive to provide parking places. 373 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOINES In place of the exorbitant and unconscionable tickets, I would suggest that apartment houses and rooming houses be assessed with a use tax. Unless a property owner could prove that a parking place was available for each apartment, a special assessment would be collected. Finally, the present ordinance is not in the interest of the nati mal welfare. Needless fuel is burned because of the present "move your car" requirement. The present ordinance is overly broad in that it is not needed under normal road conditions. _ I In closing, a more creative and practical solution is needed for the present parking problem.

MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -OLS 1101DES ;STATE OF THE CITY OF IOWA CITY Robert A. Vevera 2/27/79 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES HOMES 379 In accordance with the provisions of the Iowa City Home Rule i Charter, here is the "State of the City" message for 1979 delivered by Robert A. Vevera, Mayor of Iowa City, at the regular meeting of I the City Council on February 7, 1979. In most areas, the state of the City of Iowa City is very good to excellent. I am extremely optimistic about the immediate future of Iowa City. However, there are some factors that are disappointing and properly concern all of us in city government. Perhaps a brief review of the events, accomplishments, and set backs of 1978 as well as some projections for 1979 will offer the best explanation of the statement. It will be a joy to my ears and everyone else's when the year comes when a state of the city message does not start with a discussion and review of the city's urban renewal program. We have struggled and wrangled through two decades of urban renewal. We're getting close to the end and I do not foresee any major set backs for the duration of this program. It is with great pleasure that I remind you that during 1978 the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) was finally closed out of the urban renewal program. i During 1978, $2,700,000 in private construction was completed and an additional $1,150,000 in private construction was actually started. Also, the city started $5,500,000 in construction consisting of the City Plaza and a parking ramp. Scheduled to start in 1979 is 22.6 million dollars of private, P R I V A I E, MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOIRES —�i 2 construction and 3.5 million dollars of public construction which will include a second street project and a second parking ramp. Concerning urban renewal in general, we all know too well the number of years that the city has spent destroying its credibility with urban renewal. I am very optimistic that that is all in the past. I am convinced that we are now rebuilding our downtown both physically and emotionally. As we look back, the delays, the complications, the debates are a part of the nature of this city. A project so large which affects so many in a community so diverse, so ' I active, so outspoken inherently moves more slowly than it might somewhere else. The end result, however, is going to be a focal i point of true civic pride and will be truly representative of the community spirit of Iowa City. The community spirit of which I speak, can be seen in other areas as well. As a real symbol of the growing confidence that our people are placing in the city government, we can point to the fact that the voters in 1978 approved a very large bond issue for a new public library to be built downtown. Those same voters also authorized the city to negotiate and extend a cable television franchise. We will see both of those items as a reality in Iowa City very soon. We must also note the fact that our tax base has grown with that confidence as seen not only in new home construction but also in major expansions at Procter & Gamble, ACT, and the choice of Iowa City by Oscar Mayer and the plans to build a 6 million dollar office building near downtown. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOVIES - 3 In response to that public confidence, the City Council and i staff have done their work. We have completed a much needed, long awaited comprehensive plan and are working on the accompanying zoning ordinance. We have passed a snow emergency ordinance and have initiated calendar parking which will tremendously facilitate snow removal and street cleaning. We have nearly completed work on the Muscatine Avenue - Court Street Bridge project. We have completed a much needed paving project on Mormon Trek Road. The City Plaza and fountain downtown are well on their way. I am also proud of the outstanding cooperation shown by the city government, the county and the University in the land trading negotiations that were concluded to make the construction of the much needed county jail facility an approaching reality. All of this serves as an example of the growing community spirit of which I _ I spoke. We were all a great distance apart when we started to negotiate,'but, with much effort on the part of everyone involved, reached a mutually happy and successful conclusion. Looking ahead to the very near future, we will see this year the I construction of the dam on the south branch of Ralston Creek and the dam on the north branch probably the following year. We will see construction this year on the Highway 6 and Gilbert Street intersection which will help greatly with our traffic problems in that sector when coupled with the straightening of the Sand Road south. Also intersection work on the 1-6-218 intersection and the Benton Street -Riverside Drive intersection will solve more of our traffic congestion. Scott Boulevard should also be paved this fiscal MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES 140INEs 4 �.. year between Highway 6 and American Legion Road. You can see, we are steadily proceeding to accomplish our traffic flow goals. Before I finish discussing the positive side of our state of the City, I feel I must mention an item close to the heart of everyone -- taxes. In this age of rapid inflation, union contracts, and skyrocketing prices for goods, services, pensions, and so on, it would not be hard to justify a ten to fifteen percent increase on taxes each year. This Council has done a tremendous job of holding the dollar expenditure down. In fact, taxes on the average house will go down, that's right, down next year. Enough said. The facts speak for themselves. There are many more positive items to list, such as our leadership role in programs for the handicapped and more, but unfortunately, not nearly enough time here tonight to go through them all. I do feel, however, that I must devote some time to discussing with you what I feel are some issues on the minus side of our city government. My greatest disappointment this year has been the delays in the elderly housing project. I'm speaking of the elderly housing to be built behind the old Post Office which will be our senior citizens center. I sincerely hope that the parties involved will soon reach an agreement and that construction can start as soon as possible. I do want to note, however, that the city is committed to completion of I the senior citizens center in the old Post Office. That center is to serve all of the senior citizens of Iowa City and will be completed with or without the adjacent housing project. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOINES ■ 5 I Another disappointment, but one that could not possibly be avoided, is the high overrun of our snow removal budget. Currently, we are $50,000 over budget for the entire winter and another $60,000 i over budget is very possible. As I said, it cannot be avoided. The I real disappointment, however, lies in the fact that we must find that money in some other budget. Currently, that seems to be the money that we hoped to spend for street maintenance and repair. We simply won't be able to do everything that needs to be done in that area. Mass Transit has also recently become a criticized area. Because of the unexpected sudden increase in its popularity (I'm sure caused, in part, by the severe winter), the load has become almost more than the city can handle and changes will have to be made in the schedules or more financing sought and received from the state and federal governments. We will maintain a high quality, highly used mass transit system in Iowa City, but it is going to be increasingly difficult as time passes. I i I want to note one last item of disappointment to me personally which obviously the majority of the Council does not agree with me i on. That is the passage by this Council of the garbage collection fee. I personally feel that garbage collection is a basic city I service that should be supported by the general tax base. I do not agree with the majority of the Council and feel very uncomfortable with the precedent that has been set by this move. As there are other plusses in city government, there are also other minuses. I do feel, however, that I have covered most of the MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOINES "1� 6 truly critical items. But I cannot let this opportunity pass without sincerely commending the fine staff and employees of the City of Iowa City who have done such a tremendous job, facing difficult odds and working long and sometimes thankless hours. Concerning this particular City Council, I must honestly admit that when I began my term as mayor a year ago with a new Council of unknown qualities, I was somewhat uneasy about our city government. However, I must state here, that this is one of the finest, hardest working, truly interested City Councils that anyone could ever hope to work with. When you couple that with the fact that it is indeed the most representative City Council possible, you have an unbeatable combination. I feel also that every single person in Iowa City can point to at least one Councilmember and say "that person is in there fighting for my interests and representing me." At this point, I'd like to take just a few moments to discuss the state of the city from a broader, more philosophical viewpoint. If, at times, the rest of Iowa views Iowa City as peculiar, it is because we are unique, progressive, daring, innovative and unafraid to take the lead. We are, in fact, a very strong community. The people are our greatest natural resource. We must remind ourselves that our greatest export is not huge supplies of toothpaste or moutheash or shampoo or automotive products or business forms, or computerized testing materials. Our greatest export to the rest of Iowa, the nation, and the world is the incredible number of trained and educated minds that we produce and the overwhelming volume of knowledge that those minds take with them. Our city government plays MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES I40MES 1 7 an important role in creating the atmosphere, the setting for the production of that knowledge and the training of those minds. As long as those of us in city government continue to keep our noses to the grindstone; as long as we demand fiscal responsibility of ourselves and our employees; as long as we constantly remind ourselves that we represent a diverse community and attempt to serve the general welfare of the community, then Iowa City will continue to be a strong, functional, democratic society producing brainpower for the rest of the world. r - MICROFILMEO BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RARIDS•DES MOINES L8 PETITION 1%T- THE UNDERSIGNED, :VOULD LIKE TO PROTEST THE CITY COUNCIL'S DECISION TO PLACE NO PARKING SIGNS ALONG JEFFERS0N ST.

Because the fund balance is already low, it will ' be necessary to increase the fund balance (or provide needed funding of these items) in FY80. Therefore, the total funding needed in FY80 is as follows: FY79 (per above) $ 99,510 FY80 (per above) 97,385 $196,905 The Council did decide to increase the Refuse Fee in FY80 to $2.00/month. This will reduce the transfer from the General Fund to the Refuse Collection Operating Fund by $193,200.

Car and equipment dealers use air services to receive parts .thereby preventing delay in repairs. The open green space of our aiport plays an important part in the disspersion of polution created by surrounding built-up areas. We might well look towards using some of the open space at the airport for ball diamonds,tennis courts,etc. Every one like to watch aircraft activity.

There will be a cost of living allowance if and when and to the extent the cost of living exceeds seven percent (7%) 21 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOIRES during the contract year. The method and basis for computing the allowance will be as follows: a. All computations will be based on changes in the revised Consumer Price Index (CPI -W) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U. S. Department of Labor, Urban and Clerical Wage Earners, U. S. cities, 1967=100. b. The base index month shall be May, 1979. C. Cost of living computations will be made quarterly to determine the percent difference between the CPI -W for the base index month (May, 1979) and for August, 1979 - November, 1979 -February, 1980 -May, 1980. d. Quarterly cost of living allowance pay adjustments will be made effective the first day of the month following the month in which it is determined that the cost of living has increased in excess of seven percent (7%). By way of example: If the CPI -W for November, 1979 is issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics during December, 1979 and the difference between the CPI -W for the basic index month (May, 1979) and November, 1979 is eight and two tenths percent (8.2%), then effective January 1, 1980, the salary schedules set forth in Article XXVIII, Compensation, of this Agreement will be increased one and two tenths percent (1.2%) as a cost of living allowance. By the same token, if subsequently the quarterly computations for February, 1980 (assuming the February, 1980 CPI -W is issued in March) shows the difference to be seven and four tenths percent (7.4%), then the one and two tenths percent (1.2%) cost of living allowance previously granted will be reduced to four tenths percent (.4%) effective April 1, 1980. In the event the difference based on the May, 1980 quarterly computation were to be eight percent (8%), then the cost of living allowance effective July 1, 1980 would be one percent (1%). Section 2. No cost of living adjustment will have the effect of reducing the salary schedules set forth in Article XXVIII, Compensation of this Agreement. Section 3. Payment of cost of living allowances (adjustments) will be to the extent permitted by the standards issued by the Council on Wage and Price Stability or by law. In the event a payment is questionable, the parties will jointly request a ruling from the appropriate governmental agency. ARTICLE XXX WAGE CONTROLS Section 1.

This Contract supersedes and cancels all previous agreements between the City and the Union and constitutes the entire Contract between the parties and concludes collective bargaining for its duration. All parties to this Contract waive each and every right to negotiate to which they would otherwise be entitled under the laws of the State of Iowa for the duration except as amended. ARTICLE XXV SAVINGS CLAUSE Should any Article, Section, or any portion thereof of this Contract be held unlawful and unenforceable by operation of law or by any tribunal of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall apply only to the Oecific Article, Section or portion thereof declared null and void in the decision and the remainder of this Contract shall remain in full force and effect.

Negotiations will begin within ten (10) days unless extended by mutual written agreement. ARTICLE XXVI DURATION This Contract shall be in effect between July 1, 1979, and June 30, 1980, and shall continue from year to year thereafter unless written notice to change or modify it is served by either party prior to August 15 of the year preceding the expiration date of this Contract or any extention thereof. ARTICLE XXVII WAGES Section 1. Beginning July 1, 1979, the base pay of each step for the Iowa City Fire Department Fire Fighters, Lieutenants and Captains will be the base pay rates set forth in the Contract currently in effect (July 1, 1978 through June 30, 1979) plus the accrued cost of living adjustment's thereto through April 1, 1979, multiplied by one hundred and seven percent (1.07). By way of example: Assume a Fire Fighter at Step F and a two percent (2%) cost of living adjustment as a result of the last cost of living adjustment on April 1, 1979. The Step F monthly salary is $1,157 plus two percent (2%) or $1,180. Effective July 1, 1979 the Step F monthly salary (pay rate) would be $1,263 ($1,180 times 1.07%). ARTICLE XXVIII OTHER COMPENSATION Section 1. There will be a cost of living allowance if and when and to the extent the cost of living exceeds seven percent (7%) during the contract year. The method and basis for computing the allowance will be as follows: MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES n01NEs 18 a. All computations will be based on changes in the revised Consumer Price Index (CPI -W) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, Urban and Clerical Wage Earners, U.S. cities, 1967=100. b. The base index month shall be May, 1979. C. Cost of living computations will be made quarterly to determine the percent difference between the CPI -W for the base index month (May, 1979) and for August, 1979 -November, 1979 -February, 1980 -May, 1980. d. Quarterly cost of living allowance pay adjustments will be made effective the first day of the month following the month in which it is determined that the cost of living has increased in excess of seven percent (3). By way of example: If the CPI -W for November, 1979 is issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics during December, 1979 and the difference between the CPI -W for the basic index month (May, 1979) and November, 1979 is eight and two tenths percent (8.2%), then effective January 1, 1980 the salary schedules set forth in Article XXVIII, Compensation, of this Agreement will be increased one and two tenths percent (1.2%) as a cost of living allowance. By the same token, if subsequently the quarterly computations for February, 1980 (assuming the February, 1980 CPI -W is issued in March)'shows the difference to be seven and four tenths percent (7.4%), then the one and two tenths percent (1.2%) cost of living allowance previously granted will be reduced to four tenths percent (.4%) effective April 1, 1980. In the event the difference based on the May, 1980 quarterly computation were to be eight percent (8%), then the cost of living allowance effective July 1, 1980 would be one percent (3). e. No cost of living adjustment will have the effect of reducing the salary schedules set forth in Article XXVIII, Compensation of this Agreement. Payment of cost of living allowance (adjustments) will be to the extent permitted by the standards issued by the Council on Wage and Price Stability or by law. In the event a payment is questionable, the parties will jointly request a ruling from the appropriate governmental agency. Section 2. Lon evit Pa . A payment will be made to permanent full time employees as of December 1979, to reflect years of service with the City according to the following schedule: Length of Service on December b years 1 day - 10 years $200.00 10 years 1 day - 15 years 225.00 15 years 1 day - 20 years 250.00 20 years 1 day + 300.00 This payment will be prorated on the basis of monthly segments for members who retire before December 1 in any fiscal year. Any employee who terminates after December 1 will reimburse the City on the same proration. In addition, a payment of $300 will be made to each permanent full time bargaining unit employee as of December 1, 1979. In the event that an employee terminates for any reason after December 1, 1979, he/she will reimburse the City MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOIRES 19 from this payment on a prorated basis (monthly segments). For example, an employee who retires on January 1, 1980, will return $150 of the December 1 payment. This payment will be compensable if allowed by Chapter 410 or 411.

It appeared that one steel I-beam support had bowed so as to sink about 12" in the center. With the roof sinking that far, effective drainage could no longer occur during melting. Mike Kucharzak inspected the building, condemned it, and all City vehicles and most other City equipment were removed. The building was then locked and posted to prohibit further entry onto the premises. A quantity of books stored inside by the Library, about 300 copies of the new City code, and 2 leaf blowing machines belonging to the Public Works Department were all stored in the area beneath the lowest point in the sagging roof. It was decided that no one should work in that area for the purpose of removing these items. At this point it was deemed imperative that the pressure on the roof resulting from the excessive weight be reduced as quickly as possible. Since the structure in its present condition would not drain to the side of the building, the only alternative was to make some provision to allow the water and melting ice to drain through the roof into the building. An appreciable amount of leakage had already occurred by this time. A hole of approximately 18" was cut in the roof and a great deal of water drained to the inside. However, it was estimated that approxi- mately 12" of ice still remained and that the pressure on the roof caused by this would be approximately 65 lbs. per square foot. A struc- tural engineering consultant will be contacted to determine when it will be safe to allow employees to enter the building and remove remaining materials. It is not estimated that any appreciable damage to items remaining therein will result. Our structural consultant will be asked to evaluate the impact of demolition as it relates to adjacent structures, particularly the building in which the Wilson's Sporting Goods store is located. It is anticipated that we will have a recommendation from that consultant within one to two weeks. Then a decision will have to be made regarding whether or not the building will be demolished. If this is to occur, we would hope to be able to accomplish this as soon as the weather and Spring thaw will allow. We would hope to be able to time the demolition so that we might obtain fill material for the site from other areas where major excavations will be taking place in the Spring. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES M011JES .11t06 2 The purpose of this communication is to make the Council aware of the present situation. Until more information is available, a final decision cannot be made. However, it appears likely that it will remain the feeling of the staff that the building should be demolished. This would seem to be preferable over having it stand idle and condemned and thus be nothing more than a liability to the City. Additional information regarding this matter will be communicated to the Council when it is available. For the present the building stands idle and is posted so as to prohibit entry upon the premises by anyone. It will remain in this status until a structural evaluation is completed. jm5/2 r _ MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES fI01NES parks 8e recreation MEMO dePartment to: Mayor Vevera and the City Council from. Dennis Showalter, Director re: Proposed Hickory Hill Arboretum date • February 21, 1979 It is my understanding that there is a feeling among the Council members that they have not been properly informed about the proposed Hickory Hill arboretum. It has been discussed many times when I have been present at Council sessions (as early as 1976) and reference to the arboretum has been made in the following: 1. FY 78 Budget, Park Division Goals and Objectives: Initial planning and early development of an arboretum at the Hickory Hill addition or other desirable location by June, 1978 2. December, 1977, Park Division Monthly Report, Section IV, Status of FY 78 Goals and Objectives: A. Arboretum - in preliminary planning stage - north side of Hickory Hill Park off Conklin Street has been tenta- tively selected as the site for planting. 3. March, 1978, Park Division Monthly Report, Section V, Status of FY 78 Goals and Objectives: A. Arboretum - continued planning and organizing by staff. A portion of Hickory Hill Park off Conklin Street has been selected as the planting site. On-going project. 4. June, 1978, Park Division Monthly Report, Section IV, Status of FY 78 Goals and Objectives: A. Arboretum - an on-going program that is still in the plan— n stages. Requires much study and researching and is the type of project that should be initiated only after an organized plan is developed. Hickory Hill Park off of Conklin Street is still the proposed site. 5.

Memo to the City Council and the City Manager from the Director of Parks and Recreation, dated July 6, 1978 (attached). y06 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES I10HIE5 1 Mayor Vevera and City Council Paye 2 February 21, 1979 In January, 1979, an arboretum planning committee was assembled (see attached list of members) to discuss arboretum objectives and elements and to establish the direction the arboretum is to take. It is imperative to look to the future when planning any area as many major mistakes can be avoided by being far sighted. The following list of program objectives is an assessment of what the committee feels are the needs and desires of the community. It is not a list of rules or things we intend to accomplish in 1979. Should the community's needs change, there is no reason that the program cannot be altered to suit these needs. The program objectives are: To grow a selection of the "best" plants hardy in this area. To improve environmental awareness by preserving existing natural vegetation, thereby providing areas where visitors may be trained or participate in nature awareness, meditation, casual walking, plant identification and study, and other related activities. To serve as a regional information, display, and dissemination center for plant materials; landscape design concepts and principles; horticultural, maintenance and soil conservation techniques; pest control methods; and introduction and testing of new plant materials. To serve as an outdoor laboratory and as a source of resource materials for use by homeowners, university and community school elements, industry and the general public and to offer continuing public education. To provide passive recreational stimulus to the public that would include beautiful displays, walking, and observation of plant and animal life. The second planning meeting was held on Monday evening, February 12. Two design concepts were presented and discussed and the general concensus was to accept Concept I which I will present at the informal Council meeting on February 26. The next (and final) planning meeting will be held on March 12 at the Recreation Center to discuss the final design and planting sequence. Neal has asked me to project actual project costs for the next two years. I have divided the years into two parts: Part 1 - prime time, from April 15 through November 15, and Part 2 - off season, from November 16 through April 14. First Year - 1979 Prime Time A.

Theprogram theme was "Living Plant Collections - Accident or Design?" The papers presented were from an extremely interesting cross section of people from all across the U.S., Canada, and Europe and from large, well-known botanical gardens as well as from small, new arboretums. Most of the talks were very informative and helpful. I found the directors from even the largest, most elite arboretums to be very encouraging and helpful when informed of the City of Iowa City's endeavor. The papers and tours listed below are some which I believe are particularly pertinent to the City of Iowa City's situation. Joseph Ewan - Professor, Tulane University "Historical Overview of Living Plant Collections" Size is not critical; small can be effective. Reference library is extremely important. John L. Creech - U.S. National Arboretum (Washington, D.C.) "Setting Tomorrow's Objectives Today" The master plan is essential; plan it well and follow it. External review is very important. Early in the development of an arboretum, a Task Force should be assigned. Could consist of People from Planning Department, Parks, interested public groups, etc. This group would review beneficial effects, risks, alternatives, etc. Be sure to check into the National Register of Historic Preservation; this protects land against encroachment and is a source of grants and aid. Peter W. Bristol - Holden Arboretum "Developmental Planning - Why Have an Arboretum?" For the public - for entertainment, relaxation, and knowledge. Arboretum must have function; the collection must have a plan, it must incorporate the past and the future. Peter H. Raven - Missouri Botanical Garden I "Aesthetics vs. Systematics vs. Use" Combine landscape values and educational values. Simplify. koy Mecklenburg - Chicago Botanical Garden "Economics of Collections" We have collections for educational and aesthetic values. Things that determine cost: design, stage of growth (size of plants), site modification, maintenance costs (project costs out, have maintenance program). Be realistic. Robert Bicklehaupt - Bicklehaupt Arboretum "Minimizing Maintenance" Save steps, eliminate trim mowing, save energy. Tour. - Royal Botanical Gardens Very beautiful, mature botanical display of plant materials, garden. Ideas on ground cover, and labeling.

Glenn Boutelle, Chairperson, Parks and Recreation Commission re: Hickory Hill Arboretum date: February 22, 1979 The purpose of this memo is to let you know the position of the Parks and Recreation Commission on the Hickory Hill Arboretum. The Commission has enthusiastically supported the idea of an arboretum since 1976 when the original plan was to use the Schlaegel tract as an arboretum. We make it a regular procedure at each Commission meeting to allow time for public discussion. No one has ever appeared to express opposition to the project and to the best of my knowledge, two members of the Commission have had phone calls from the same person regarding the location of the arboretum. The master plan for feels staff that the a fortheproject. Itis essentialthd atProjects job in plikerthese have a document to provide for orderly development so that the project will proceed by design and not by accident. The project has been designed so that it will not take much staff time during the growing season with record keeping and other paperwork to be done, for the most part, in the winter. The Commission feels that an arboretum on the northern part of Hickory Hill Park, displaying the best woody plants for this area both natural and introduced, is a proper and consistent use of the area. Part of the overall plan for Hickory Hill Park is to keep and designate the wooded portion of the park as a nature preserve. We feel that an arboretum adjacent to a natural wooded area is a desirable supplement to the natural area. It is probable that the area to the north and northeast of Hickory Hill Park will be residential development in the future. We feel that the Presence of an arboretum will be an asset to the immediate area as well as the whole community. The current response from the Commission to this project has been entirely favorable. It is not often that we get a chance to have a hand in a project that will be of great use and value to future generations and we would like to see theproject continued as scheduled. /ef yob MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES 1401-11Es MINUTES ARBORETUM PLANNING COMMITTEE IOWA CITY RECREATION CENTER FEBRUARY 12, 1979 MEMBERS PRESENT: Showalter, Lacina, Nigg, Lee, Grace, Schabilion, Sprague, B.

Bickelhaupt, Nair MEMBERS ABSENT: Howell, Mottet, Quade, Essex, Boutelle, Maynard, Douglas GUESTS: Margaret Bailey PLANNING UPDATE AND PROGRAM OBJECTIVES: Lacina read the Long Range Objectives and Elements that were a result the previous workshop and discussions between Showalter and herself. She discussed her two visits to Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois, and the topics covered during these visits. PRESENTATION: Lacina presented two Development Concepts and two Design Concepts to the committee members. She cited the similarities as being: the utilization of the same program elements, the same pedestrian and vehicular circulation Patterns, the same native timber preserves, and similar planting concepts. She cited the concept differences as being: the locations of proposed development and the variance of open spaces. EVALUATION OF DESIGN CONCEPT: B. Bickelhaupt expressed concern about having displays accessible to the handicapped and Schabilion expressed concern over the timber south of the arboretum site in Hickory Hill Park. He suggested making it a woodland preserve and the majority of the committee members concurred. Many opinions were experessed about development sites, especially in regard to the maintenanceal that in long range plans and that the City could have a valuable collection and a valid arboretum with few or no buildings. PLANNING FOR THE NEXT MEETING: Lacina stated that before the next meeting all members would receive an Interim Report. She indicated that the Master Plan will be presented at the next meeting along with a detailed design of the first planting and an explanation of the record and labeling systems which will be discussed at that time. B. and F. Bickelhaupt volunteered to bring samples of labels and records at the next meeting.

Work Completed: There continues to be a high turnover rate. Analysis: When this budget was written, there was to be one custodian, a Maintenance Worker III, the balance of custodial work was to be done by contract. This approach was changed - the Senior Maintenance Worker from the Recreation Center is in charge of maintenance, and we have two Maintenance Worker I's. There appears to be a number of possible reasons for continued high turnover, including low salary, transfer for medical reasons and the policy regarding hiring of relations. In regard to the % of total budget expended, 54.9% of this results from a number of factors: 1. Sick leave used, 2. All of capital outlay already encumbered, and 3. High maintenance costs for air conditioning units and for roof repair. I expect to be able to balance the budget by the end of the year.

I have not carefully investigated the possible pecularities of the Iowa City airport that might be of significance in effecting possible remedies, and these peculiarities may make some of the possible remedies irrelevant or impractical. Neither have I investigated possible sources of aid for implementing Possible remedies. I have surveyed state and local airport codes in regard to the problem and -I have found none of special relevance. (I do assume, however., that the airport is in compliance --.with such state and local requirements.) In fact, the area of aircraft and flight regulation, including noise abatement, has been largely pre-empted by Federal law. State or local actions in this area must:be examined with preemption in mind. My survey will begin with what appears to be the most accessible remedies to local authorities and continues from there to discuss the more difficult remedies. I will include a short discussion of current preemption doctrine. I. Actions that the airport proprietor can implement directly: A. The location of engine run-up areas. B. Time when engine run-up for maintenance can be done. C. The establishment of landing fees according to the amount of aircraft noise emission or the time of day. (Fees based upon noise emission would of course raise the problem of measurement; i.e., setting a standard and then having to measure individual aircraft.) II. Actions available to the City or the proprietor: A. Zoning areas around the airport for compatible uses. This is a potentially attractive remedy, however, its usefulness will vary greatly according to the amount of development already surrounding the airport site. Zoning is required by the airport in the Airway Development Act of 1970, Section 16(C), 84 STAT.226. Zoning can allow the airport to be placed in relative isolation where noise Z//L) MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DCS tjOIRES 2 will not significantly annoy the population. But in currently developed areas any zoning must avoid due process violations that amount to an unlawful taking. The alternatives are the expense of condemnation or the delays of amortization. And of course, zoning is a long range solution. B. Enact building codes that require insulation against noise. Again, this remedy is to a large extent limited to newcomers in the airport area and may not prove useful as a remedy to those currently complaining of excessive noise. In order to operate such a code the City would need to measure the amounts of noise involved at various locations, and it would have to designate standard performance materials for insulation. The drawbacks are: (1) the fact that sound proofing is expensive, and (2) the fact that it only controls interior noise levels. C. Advance site acquisition (purchase of surrounding land). Simply putting distance between the airport and the community can be very effective noise abatement, but it can also be expensive (depending to some extent upon what alternative uses the airport proprietor can find for the land; e.g., renting extra land as a crop land would be a compatible and economical use). D. Require appropriate notice of airport noise to real estate Purchasers in the airport vicinity. E. "Avigation Easements". The purchase of such easements is another remedy that may involve a significant outlay of money, although determining the value of such easements would be a problem in itself. It would also seem unlikely that the residents complaining of airport noise would consider mere payment of money as a satisfactory remedy for their problem. F. The airport could erect noise suppressing equipment, construct physical barriers, and landscape in order to reduce noise transmission. G. The airport could extend or move runways, or move to a new location altogether. III. Actions that the airport proprietor can propose to the FAA for implementation at local airport as operational noise control procedures: MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOINES 3 A. The installation of a preferential runway use system. B. Creation of preferential approach and departure flight tracks. C. The creation of a priority runway use system. D. The creation of a rotational runway use system. E. The use of flight operational procedures such as thrust reduction or maximum climb on takeoff. F. The use of higher glide slope angles and glide slope intercept altitudes on approach. G. The use of a displaced runway threshhold. IV. Actions an airport proprietor can establish, after providing an opportunity for interested parties, including the FAA, to comment: A. A prohibition on operations at certain times of day -- a curfew. B. A prohibition against operations by particular types or classes of aircraft (e.g. a jet ban). C. A limitation on the number of operations per day or per year. The curfew remedy would seem particularly attractive in view of the special mention given to late night and early morning flights by local citizens. (See the Cover Letter, signed by William Larsen, filed with petition for airport noise, September 11, 1978.) I believe curfew is a legally acceptible alternative, although there may be some question in light of the leading case of City of Burbank v. Lockheed Air Terminal, Inc., 411 U.S. 624 (1973). This case, which firmly establi hs ed federal preemption of air traffic management, struck down a local ordinance prohibiting jet take -offs at night. However, the court made its decision on the grounds of the municipality exercising its police power, and the court specifically reserved the question of whether the same restriction could be effected by an airport proprietor. "[Ajuthority that a municipality may have as a landlord is not necessarily congruent with its police power. We do not consider here what limits, if any, aPP1 to a municipally as a proprietor.'` (Emphasis supplied.) Burbank, note 14, cited in Air Transport Association _v. Crotti, 389 S. Supp. 58 (N.D. Cal. 1975. Air Transport goes on to declare that proprietary actions are now clearly established as being free from federal preemption. The MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES iaon¢s court in Air Transport uses the proprietary distinction to approve a California statute that regulates total airport noise, but the court also strikes down a similar provision to regulate and monitor the noise of aircraft in direct flight. The direct flight regulation is an unlawful Rolice power intrusion into a federally preempted area. Thus, the Burbank and Air Transport cases suggest that if an action to—Timit airport use is undertaken, it should be done clearly as a proprietary action by the Airport Commission. A City Council action by ordinance might fall within the preemption area of Burbank. Another California district court case, National Aviation v. City of Ha ard, 418 F. Supp. 417 (N.D. Ca . 1976 spec1f calTy approved a city ordinance banning takeoff of aircraft from the municipal airport between the hours of 11:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. if the noise of the aircraft exceeded a specified level. The court approved the action because the city was acting as a proprietor, although the court found it necessary to go beyond the analysis in Air Tr�ans_port. The court in National Aviation also found no v of l 'on atiof the Commerce clause, another important factor in aircraft regulation, though it has not played the important role that preemption has played. Because Iowa City is not served by an interstate airline it is unlikely that a regulation. Finallyrce l,sanyrwould regulat regulationarise non-discriminatory and reasonable. British Airways Board v. Port Authority of New York, 558 F. 2d 75 2d C r. 19 7 . SUMMARY The most immediate and effective remedies for noise as complained of by local citizens are found in Part 4 (IV) of this memorandum. These remedies present two potential problems: First, what degree (if any) of FAA participation or permission would be required to institute such necessary tosestablishia curfew orsuch a ban oniJetion or flightsP n Iowa Citermission y. However, good sense and the possibility of financial aid would dictate contacting the FAA. Second, an action to establish a curfew or to ban jet flights must be done by the airport prrop_r�ietor -- in Iowa City this would presumably be the Airport Comm sssion. The unilateral action by the City Council imposing such restrictions by ordinance may be in violation of the Burbank holding that preempts state and local police powers. Therefore any'action desired to be taken by the City Council must go through the Airport Commission. Among the other possible noise abatement aids those that have to do with the actual operation and flight of the aircraft definitely require FAA approval of any changes. Because most remedies must be ininoidinstituted by seabatementwillreme remain somewhat limited. airport oThhiswill the tcontinue M MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS- DES noll¢s so long as the Airport Commission remains formally independent of the City Council. The main remedies available to the City, such as land use planning, are the most expensive and are of less usefulness in abating current complaints.

There will also be an opportunity to review the building plans, to inform the library staff and architect about new technology for the disabled which might be incorporated into building planning, and to learn about a special grant which the library has received to acquire audio-visual materials which will benefit persons who are print -dis- advantaged. We look forward to meeting with you and invite you to bring with you others whom you believe would be interested. To facilitate our planning for the meeting, will you please return the enclosed form to the library by March 17 Sin erely, P eot�m (JO Randall P.

Agency or organization Address Phone ff MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MolllES Date: February 23, 1979 To: Neal Berlin and City Council 1 From: Dick Plastino Re: Status Report on'Calendar Parking Program The program is approximately 15 percent complete. Traffic Engineering has reached its maximum capacity of approximately 240 signs per week. At this rate the entire program will be completed in approximately six to eight weeks. Public Weeks is receiving approximately one to two phone calls per day concerning this program. The majority of the callers concur with the purpose of the program after it is explained to them. There are a few who are more concerned with the impacts of the program on their particular parking space and they are not satisfied with the purpose of the program. The Traffic Engineer and myself have reiterated the main objectives of Council in explaining the purpose of the program. These are: 1. Snow removal. In many neighborhoods with parking on both sides, snow plows are able to make only one pass down the center of the street. This then blocks in cars so they can not be moved which in turn prevents the plow from ever clearing the rest of the street. This starts a cycle which never ends until the snow melts. 2. Street storage of vehicles. We have explained it is a specific purpose of the program to eliminate storage of cars on streets for all but the shortest time. It is the intent of this parking program to force vehicles off the street into driveways, garages, or parking lots. If parking lots do not presently exist it is hoped that elimination of on -street storage will eventually result in construction of parking spaces off-street. The program is also meant to eliminate vehicles that do not absolutely need to be in Iowa City. In other words, if a student has a choice between bringing a vehicle and not bringing a vehicle, the program is meant to eliminate the vehicle. Several callers have questioned the 11:00 p.m. cutoff date. They state that this makes it difficult to move their car at any time except 8:00 a.m. in the morning. We explained that this is the exact purpose of the late cutoff time. Originally we had wished to allow parking on one side of the street for 24 hours and then switch immediately to the other side. We were not able to convey this message on a sign due to the confusion around 12:00 midnight. Therefore, we picked a time late enough so that most people would not change their cars. In this manner, the only vehicles parked on the other side of the street in the hours from 11:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. will be those who actually drive onto the street after 11:00 y�3 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MIRES I 2 n 1 p.m. or those who go out and move their cars. It is the basic intent of the program to promote parking on only one side of the street as much of the day and night as possible. The City does not want cars parked on both sides of the street between 11:00 p.m. and 8:000 a.m. The only reason these signs were set up in this manner was to promote clarity. 3. Street cleaning. In the summer months street cleaning will be aided by alternating parking back and forth from one side to the other. As a spinoff benefit, garbage trucks are now able to traverse streets much easier with the elimination of alley pickup. Under the old program a garbage truck could not get down many streets on which parking was allowed on both sides. In summary, the program is well underway. Council can expect phone calls and letters as the program moves closer to completion. At the present time many vehicles are being moved to other side streets where the program has not yet been completed. As these spaces are eliminated, more and more dislocations will occur. bdw4/8-9 cc: Jim Brachtel I r MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOINES -) City o4 Iowa Ci"-# Date: February 21, 1979 To: Neal Berlin, City Manager City Council From: Richard Plastino, Director of Public Works Re: Council Request for Parking Removal A few weeks ago the City Council had requested that Public Works look at River Street, Woolf Avenue, Oakcrest Street, and Woodside Drive in regard to bus traffic. The Traffic Engineer and the Transit Manager have met. They were not able to reach a consensus on all of the problems but this is the fol- lowing course of action planned: 1. River Street - The Traffic Engineer and the Transit Manager report there are no problems with the parking prohibitions installed on River Street as they now exist. Parking is prohibited on one side all of the time and from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. on the other side. 2. Woolf Avenue - The Transit Manager reports there is a problem area on Woolf Avenue between the bridge overpass over Highway 6 and Newton Road. The Traffic Engineer agrees and will be sending a notice to Council recommending that it be posted "No Parking Anytime" on both sides of the street. 3. Oakcrest Street - The Transit Manager and the Traffic Engineer agree that there are still some problems on this street. With the high density in this area it seems an adequate compromise to leave the existing situation: The existing situation is "No Parking Anytime" on one side and no parking 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. on the other. 4. Woodside Drive - This street has "No Parking Anytime" on one side and no parking 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. on the other side. The situation is adequate during the hours when parking is prohibited on both sides. Before 8:00 A.M. and after 5:00 P.M. the transit operation is adversely affected. This area is developed very densely and an adequate compromise seems to be to leave the exist- ing situation. There are difficulties with encroachment of snow out into the lanes and the Street Department will attempt to curb this snow in the near future. In summary, the recommended action is to prohibit parking'on Woolf Avenue and take no action on the other streets. cc: Jim Brachtel Hugh Idose jm2/3 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES 1101nEs r �-, City Of Iowa C►"y MEMORANDUM F ate: February 16, 1979 I : Neal Berlin and CityCouncil om: Dick Plastino : 4C Council Referral of 2/13 - Trash Cans Left on Parking Strip e ordinance says: "The containers placed at the curb for collection all not be placed until 5:00 P.M. on the day before the regularly heduled collection day and containers shall be removed from the curb e same day collection is made and returned to a placeas near as asonably possible to the side or back of any permanent building on the operty.

Washington iIowa City, Iowa 52240 iDear Mayor and City Council Members: Each year the Public Transit Division of the Iowa D.O.T. collects various operating statistics from transit operations throughout the State of Iowa. In addition to using these statistics in Providing us direction on how we might best lend assistance to such transit properties, these statistics also give an opportunity to determine which system made the most significant improvement in the past year. I am pleased to announce that based on our analysis the Iowa City Transit System has been chosen as the most improved transit system for fiscal year 1977-78 as compared against all other transit systems in the State of Iowa. We realize a system does not simply improve itself, but requires a concentrated effort on the part of its manager to bring together various segments of society, policymakers, citizens, employees, and public and private agencies toward a common objective. Consequently, Mr. Hugh Mose has been selected as the Transit Operator of the Year. The statistics we look at in considering properties eligible for this award are: ridership increase, revenue increase (must be above zero), revenue/expense ratio increase (must be above zero), expense decrease (must be at or below zero), deficit decrease (must be at or below zero). A property must meet one or more the above qualifications in order to be e1i9 le for consideration. The Iowa City transit system was -the oy ity to meet all five (5) of these qualifications. A total of 12 transit- systems were eligible for consideration. r � _ FIICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOIRES COMMISSIONERS JULES M. BUSKER S.O., CII, BARBARADUNN N' Mo1neA DONALDK.

Mose, Transit Manager �q Re: FY80 State Transit Grant In January we received application instructions for the FY80 State Transit Assistance Program. At that time I was told that the planners (Johnson County Regional Planning Commission and East Central Iowa Council of Governments) would be doing the actual application, as it was being made part of the Regional Transit Development Program. I have since contacted Keith Friese of the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission on several occasions, and each time was assured that work was progressing satisfactorily. I was lead to believe that my only function would be to provide budget information. On Tuesday of this week the local transit operators had a meeting, at which time the status of the Regional Transit Development Program application was discussed. When questions were raised about Council authorizations, public hearings, legal opinions, etc., it was readily apparent that much work remained to be done. The following morning I called the Iowa Department of Transportation Public Transit Division and spent a half hour on the phone going through the application guidelines and determining just which responsibilities were the local transit operator's. There were, to my great surprise, a number of sections that the transit operator, rather than the planner, must complete. Discussion at the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission Trans- portation Committee meeting on Thursday confirmed that due to misunderstand- ings between the State, ECICOG, JCRPC, and the City, we are well behind schedule in this application process, and may have great difficulty meeting the April 1 deadline for grant submissions. Time will be of the essence if we are to avoid some type of punitive action by the State. I.t is strongly suggested that in the interest of saving time that the City apply for assistance in the same manner as last year. We should apply for about 40% of our operating deficit, or $220,000. Bearing in mind all problems of this past winter, it would be unwise to attempt any service expansions, other than minor increases required if schedule realignments include additional buses during mid-day. Unless directed otherwise, I will proceed along these lines, working with the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission on a day-to-day basis, so that we can get a document prepared and submitted as close as possible to April 1. jm5/20 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES i101?IEs Rl:i:i „'„ :: ;1 ; 1 1979 MIDSTATES DEVELOPMENT, INC. 41%l5r,r,uer .',l /Pll /1u.1',,;//'lvor..(/1J)7bH 4!iNb /Snnu frl V.

Regarding the UMTA Grant, Berlin, Mose, Plastlno A Emil Brandt will review the application and decide who will assume the responsibility. Council discussed the role for the two planning agencies, County d East Central Iowa, and decided that staff should draft a letter for their review to be sent to HUD, with a copy to the Governor outlining quality of material and aid received from ECIRPC. 11. Berlin stated that If Iowa City receives SMSA designation, additional personnel would be needed to prepare d process grants. Council requested that letters be written to Sen. Culver 8 Rep. Leach thanking them for their help. Berlin added that if transit continues to expand, Mose will need extra help.

Sidewalk could be raised along Hafor Drive, south side, 611, so water stays on the street, cost of $5,000. Ditch Improvements, $6,500. To lower the street, $51,000. 70 acres contribute to the drainage area. Staff has indicated that the City would not participate In cost. Council discussed special assessment procedure. Dietz was directed to provide Information by a mailing to all persons in the drainage area, also setting up a meeting which the District Councllperson Perret for representative) would attend.

Their questions are: 1. Is the Shelter in Cedar Rapids regional? Yes, it serves individuals from Benton, Cedar, Iowa, Johnson, Jones and Linn Counties. The'Shelter's admission policy states that the Shelter "will provide shelter for any woman as a refuge from an abusive situation or potentially abusive situation, and for children of that woman". "Abused women will be admitted on a temporary, emergency basis until a more complete intake process determines the appropriateness of a referral." 2. What areas are served? (See above) 3. Does the Shelter have priorities as to who is served first? No - see N1. First-come, first-served. 4. Was AASA (Aid & Alternatives to Spouse Abuse) denied funding because a shelter is located in Cedar Rapids? Ron Larson, Dept. of Social Services, did not think so. Perhaps AASA did not meet some of the grant qualifications or perhaps its funding request was higher than the allocations. $60,000 was divided among four cities. $15,000 grants were given to 4 cities: Sioux City, Clinton, Decorah and Cedar Rapids. 5. Does Social Services reimburse for Johnson County residents? Reimbursement can be made in two ways. The individual may pay themselves if possible or the County can reimburse through the County Poor Fund if an individual meets income guidelines. Federal regulations do not permit the use of Title XX monies to be used to provide shelter. Larson feels this guideline may be changed in the future. The costs for shelter are: $5/day for room and board, $35/week; $21/week per child. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•DES MOINES 2 6. Does the Shelter have income guidelines or a sliding fee? See #5. A sliding fee is available for counseling. 7. What is the capacity at the Shelter? Since its door were opened in November, no one has been turned away. The Shelter has some flexibility with beds to allow residents to be housed. As yet a maximum capacity has not been determined because the Shelter has not been filled beyond its capacity. The capacity is flexible depending on the size and age of person - up to 14 people have been housed previously (8 children, 6 women). 8. Staff. The staff includes a professional psychologist, the director and 3 part-time workers (actually work full time). The director and part-time employees counsel clients and act as problem solvers. Three part-time employees direct the Center's activities for the children's programming, volunteer activities, and follow up. Their credentials and experience are relevant to their respective functions: children's programming - director of Montessori school in Cedar Rapids; volunteer activities - advanced degree in employment counseling for women; follow-up - experience working with migrant workers, HACAP employees and CETA. 9. Grant $14,000 State, $56,000 Hall Foundation. A total budget of $62,000. 10. How were needs documented to determine which other counties would be included? State said Linn must include contiguous counties in their proposal. The State's grant provides for the salary of the professional psychologist. The State wanted Iowans in other counties to be able to benefit from the availability of a psychologist. 11. Is the Shelter really designed to serve 6 counties? The Department of Social Services views positively programming that ties together family support services for its clients. The Shelter's support services include marital counseling, legal, protective and psychological. The State felt these services should also be available to residents of surrounding communities. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS•OES 110 RIES t ` � The Iowa Legislature allocated $60,000 to four cities to fund programs for victims of spouse abuse. Each community received $15,000. This funding expires June 30. The legislature is expected to renew funding this session (a bill has already been introduced, SF191, Miller, Marshall). The State's funds provide salary to pay a staff psychologist at the Women's Emergency Shelter. The State designated that contiguous counties to Linn also benefit from the availability of support programs provided by the Shelter. Its services to clients include: marital counseling, legal and protective services, professional psychologist, transportation, advocacy, medical, housing, financial assistance, employment assistance, child care, education (for children and women). The Center has not experienced any problems providing services to women from other counties. WEC has served clients outside the six county area from Blackhawk, Marshall and Keokuk counties. I Larson expressed that it was difficult for the Dept. of Social Services to be creative as they (the department) would like I especially when dealing with shrinking dollars for human services. Programming that ties family support services together for clients is viewed positively by the Dept. of Social Services. The Department of Social Services' philosophy is to provide support services to maintain the family as a unit whenever possible. Fleeing the home is viewed as a last resort. The Woman's Emergency Center provides support services to assist the entire family individually and as a unit. Federal Guidelines prevent Title XX funds from being used to pay for services at the Shelter. County Poor Funds from the Mental Health fund may be used to reimburse for services. Federal regulations may possibly be amended to allow monies to be spent for Shelter. ? When AASA sought State funding, Larson wrote a letter of support. He is not sure the reason their program was not funded. Perhaps, he allothought, because their cated. Most f the grat ntswere approved for uest was for more a$15,000 orn the u$30,000. Larson felt what Iowa City may need is the support programming fi without walls, not duplicate housing. Both programs, AASP Iowa City 3 and WEC Cedar Rapids, are offered to Social Service clients in Johnson County. The clients' needs are the first consideration. Kristy's role is to act as a trouble shooter. When she comes into a crisis situation, she helps remove the victim from a volatile environment and she put her in a safe place and also aid to coordinate special services for victims. I will be meeting with Kristy and a Board representative to discuss programming with her. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOIRES
