On April 11, 1918, the City Council of Iowa City passed an ordinance
which prohibits smoking in designated places. The ordinance requires
at least 25 percent of the permanent seating area be designated as a
no -smoking area in bars and restaurants.
Our office has received a number of complaints that your restaurant
has not complied with this ordinance by designating no -smoking areas.
I.am enclosing a copy of the no -smoking ordinance for your information.
Please bring your restaurant into compliance as soon as possible so
that I may notify the City Council of your corrective action.

U Airport Commission
July 25, 1979
I.C. Civic Center
The ICMAC held an emergency meeting at 9:00 A.M. (July 25, 1979) at the Civic
Center in the Conference Room in order to consider what to do about the
resignation, effective immediately, of E.K. Jones as Iowa City Municipal
Airport Manager.
P.hairman Phipps called the meeting to order. Present: Phipps, Bleckwenn,
Redick, Embree. Absent: Sasugling. Also present: members of the press.
The Commission received Y copy of the official statement to the press by
Mr. Bones. Bleckwenn said he didn't think an interim manager was needed,
over the next few weeks, because no big problems at the Airport exist now
(no snow, no equipment failures). The possible existence of an insurance
problem if no manager was in charge was discussed. Bleckwenn suggested
that Phipps act as manager in interim and delegate work to other Commission
members.
A recess was called in order that Embree could check on the insurance question.
Following recess (approx. 5 minutes), Embree reported that she had
contacted Russ Mishak, insurance agent handling ICMAC policies, and that
he had advised her that there would be no insurance problem.
It was agreed by cnnsensus to authorize Phipps to act as manager. In addition,
Phipps was authorized to meet with Pat Brown, the City's employment
specialist, to get an ad written for the manager position.
Bleckwenn asked if the new manager should be an employee of the City or of
ICMAC. Discussion. The consensus was that Phipps should check with
Attorney Tucker about this question.
A possible budget amendment and the sources of funding to pay for a
new manager were discussed. Phipps will check with the City Finance
Dept. for further information.
Bleckween moved, seconded by Embree, to adjourn. Meeting adjourned at
9:351

I. Summary of Action Taken:
Minutes: The meeting was called to order by Chairman
i11rF pps. The minutes of the meeting from June 28, 1979,
were read. It was suggested by Lmbree that this be the
last meeting where they were not provided with copies
of the minutes well in advance of the meeting. The
need for a secretary to speed up the efficiency of the
recording of the minutes was mentioned. Embree moved
for postponement of approval of the minutes until all
have copies. She said her motion for amending the student
restriction was omitted entirely. Redick seconded the
motion. Notion carried.
B. Lana er's Presentation of Bills: The Flanager presented
t e s or approva see a Cached copy). General
discussion followed. It was discussed that all bills
paid by the ICAC must be on the handout to be authorized.
The possibility of duplicate payments was discussed.
Embree moved that the bills be approved with the proviso
that it be made sure L. Robert Kimball was not paid twice.
Jones seconded. Motion tarried.
C, Flana,er's Re ort to ICAC: The equipment for the VASE
T{91its as arr ve ie trees adjacent to the Gene layers
property have been removed. IC Flying Service has
moved upstairs to the terminal building as agreed upon
by the Commission. Mr. Jones has been informed by
his lawyer that because of his enforcement of the
student restriction he would be held responsible for
any accidents and recommends that the r.estl•iction be
removed. He further added that the black top addition
has been completed.
The (taster Plan Status consultants did not make it to
the meeting. They have proceeded on PHASE II and will
have a report so the Commission can hold further public
informational meetings by the next meeting. PHASE I
is 90% completed and is proceeding.
II. Uiscussion From Guests:
A.Fir. Uon Strube, President Elect of the Iowa City Chamber
00 omce, read a letter to the Commission from Bob
Uowner, President of the Chamber of Commerce, who could
not attend the meeting. He stated that the airport is
important to the Iowa City area and that all users of
the facility should be treated fairly and equally. He is
disturbed by the policy toward the student pilots because:
MICROFILMED BY
JORM MICROLAB
CEDAR RAPIDS -DES IIOIIIES

1. it discriminates against student pilots as 'opposed
to licensed pilots,
2, it requires take offs and landings under adverse
wind conditions and so jeopardizes the safety of
those involved,
3, it causes congestion of the airport runways.
Ile suggested that the policy may violate the provisions
of Section 328.19 of the Ioo-:a Code and may breach
existing agreements between Iowa City and the FAA. He
encouraged the policy be reversed.
8, Mr. Keith 5 ur eon President of Executive Aviation
Litited,, presega formal complaint to the Commission
against Mr. Jones in a conflict of interest case. During
the past two years, he claims Jones has refused him
service for his aircraft and has now been told to vacate
his hanger .in 30 days. His complaint is based on:
1. a review by J, Hayek of lir. Jones lease with the
Commission which he finds questionable,
2. Mr. Turner, former Attn. General report,
3, the interest of the current Attn. General in renewing
the matter,
4. the current granting of a Federal grant to the Spencer,
Iowa, :airport which called for the termination of
any exclusive lease agreements with any fixed base
operators.
He claims that if Jones is found in conflict of interest,
any contracts, verbal or written, are null and void.
Ile called for an investigation by the Commission. He
further suggested that the Commission could pay for
an -airport manager by regaining control of the rental
property. Ile claims the difference Jones pays the
Commission and what he collects is sizeable. Followed
by general discussion.
Mr. Jones responded by handing out copies of the Accounts
Receivable records since 1976 for Mr. Spurgeon's account.
He claims I•ir, Spurgeon's checks have bounced, his payments
have been sporatic, and he failed to pay for four months
prior to the eviction notice. The contract between them
was a gentlemen's agreement; there was not written
contract.
Embree said both ought to be careful of libel action.
She moved that the ICAC ask attorney William Tucker
to review the leases and contracts between:

Motion carried.
both men were told this discussion should be held
privately and was not for a public meeting.
III. Comments from the Commission: Noise Abatement
A. Student Policy
Letter to Bond: Redick read a letter she sent to
Mr. Langhorne M. Bond, Director of the FAA (see attached).
Embree moved that student pilots should be prohibited
between 5 and 9 p.m. but not to enforce it to minimize
the problem. She then amended the motion for a shorter
time such as 5-1:30 p.m. Embree said that flying
Mould go on as usual until advice from the FAA was given.
She stated she had called Mr. Sasser in Kansas City
(FAA office) and asked for suggestions on the restriction,
but has not heard anything yet. Motion failed - lack
of second.
Saeugling commented that Redick's letter was unnecessary.
Redick said she already had mailed the letter without
the Commission's endorsement,
Saeugling moved that the Commission lift the restriction
on student flights. Motion failed - lack of second.
Embree moved the restriction be suspended for student
pilots pending clarification by the FAA and/or EPA.
Saeugling seconded the motion. Motion carried,
B. Further noise Abatement Motions:
1. Redick made a .notion that the ICAC adopt:
a) raise AGL (above ground level) pattern from 800
ft. to 1000 ft.
b) establish right hand traffic patterns on runways
35,12, and 6,

Saeugling proposed that they vote on the two points
separately. The first proposal was seconded by Embree.
Jones stated that there might be a problem with this
as this height is not standard in all airports. He
suggested the Commission take it under advisement.
General discussion followed. Redick restated the motion
that AGL pattern be raised to 1000 ft. and its imple-
mentation will await approval by the FAA. (First motion
withdrawn) Embree seconded it. General discussion followed.
Fulton, area farmer, questioned how noise would be
abated if the noise occurs at take off. Redick added
that the motion was also for safety reasons. Jones
clarified the situation by stating that it would apply
primarily to high performance planes whose noise would
be less at the greater height. Motion carried.
2. Redick motioned that they establish right hand traffic
patterns on runways 35,12 and 6. This brings the pattern
out over the river rather than over residential areas.
Jones claimed that this change would bring them over
the downtown area. Embree seconded the motion. Saeugling
said they should wait until the next meeting to have
time to look at this closer and asked the consulttait
to look at this for next month. Mofloncarrt_d.
3. Redick then motioned that all pilots should execute
full landings on 35 and 30 only and must return to
the beginning of the runway before taking off to help
achieve higher altitude than with couch and go take
offs. Embree seconded it. Seaugling mentioned the
need for taxi ways with this measure. He suggested
a time limit be put on the policy as this problem
doesn't exist throughout the entire day. Redick withdrew
her motion and restated that all pilots should execute
full stop lafidings between 4 and 9 daily. Embree seconded.
Motion carried.
4. Redick moved also for voluntary compliance with the
following:
a) pilot awareness of noise sensitive areas
b) instructors will teach noise abatement and safety
procedures to their students
c) fixed base operators should carry out above and
conduct campaign to show all pilots noise areas and
abatement procedures
d) airport managers are responsible to see that radio
operators at terminal give runway choice, wind
conditions and appropriate pattern information as
part of airport advisory to incoming pilots
e) she also asked that fixed base operators voluntarily
give information as far as runway choice, wind
conditions, etc., stressing the voluntary aspect
of this.

difficulties between the airport and the City Council.

Mr. Langhorne M. Bond, Director
Federal Aviation Administration
800 Independence Avenue, SW
Washington, D.C. 20591
Dear Mr. Bond:
As a member of the Iowa City Airport Commission, I am writing to seek your
advice and counsel on a matter of extreme concern to many citizens of this City.
It involves a safety and noise problem which exists due to the close proximity
of our municipal airport to residential areas. As we have received ennflicting
advice on this issue, I have decided to seek your input to resolve this critical
problem.
Iowa City is, and has been, a delightful place to live: the relatively
unhurried pace of small city life being harmoniously enriched by the Univer-
sity of Iowa, three medical hospitals with extensive medical expertise and fa-
cilities, and cultural advantages which rival any of this nation's largest
cities. For these reasons people elect to make their home in this community
as opposed to larger cities. However, numerous citizens of this city are be-
coming increasingly alarmed at seeing their quality of life being degraded by
excessive noise from the evdr increasing numbers of aircragt operations at our
local airport.
One of my goals in seeking the position of airport commissioner, was to
try to help resolve this problem. As a Commission we have been working on
Possible solutions for over a year. One area of operations contributes to
citizens' concerns about safety and noise more than any other: that area in-
cludes all the student training flights. In trying to reach a compromise so-
lution, the Commission has been constantly frustrated by the airport manager
(who is also the Fixed Base Operator) and others stating that we cannot im-
pose any restrictions on student pilot operations at this airport as same would
be contrary to FAA regulations.
On May 24, 1979, a majority of the Airport Commission voted to apply a
limited restriction on student operations: Begining June 1, 1979, and subject
to Commission review in September, 1979, all student pilots are prohibited
from taking off on runways 30 and 35 between the hours of 4:00 and 9:00 PM.
Landings are permitted to all pilots, regardless of status, on all six run-
ways (see Atch. 1). Pilots with student licenses may only take off on runways
17, 12, 24, and 6 during this period, however all other pilots may take off
on any appropriate runway.
The rationale for imposing this restriction was twofold. The primary
concern was for the safety of residents in the heavily populated area surrounding
the airport to the North. Student pilots solo with approximately seven to eight
hours of flying time and these same students, using single engine trainers
on runways 30 and 35, are taking off over densely populated areas with abso-
lutely no open space for an emergency landing in the event of a power failure
MICROFILMED BY
JORM MICROLAB
CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOINES
-t-
on takeoff. Open areas exist off the other runways. It is highly th an engine�quueestionable
ahether singleeven an engine aircraft cin this ed tsituation. (Incould safely c stark ope icontraat, the SthteeofnIowa
requires student automobile drivers to practice driving for two years with an
adult driver, to complete a six-week driver's education course, and to pass both
a written exam and practical exam before being allowed to solo on the streets
and highways of Iowa.) The citizens of the affected areas are feeling increasing
alarm that inexperienced pilot operations are increasing over their homes. The
fact that no fatalities have occurred during the period of operation of the
flight school is fortunate in the extreme. However, the odds are certainly in-
creasing that Iowa City will see a tragic accident as the number of student
and other air operations continues to increase over residential areas.
Contrary to the June 4, 1979 letter by the airport manager, Mr. E.K.
Jones, to Mr -William Sasser, Chief Airport Division, Central Division, Federal
Aviation Association (Atch. 2), and the reply from Joseph W. Jones, Chief,
Programs Branch, (Arch. 3), I do not believe that the restriction which the
Commission has imposed on student pilots represents a safety hazard for them.
As pilots, they must evaluate all aspects of flying conditions (weather, local
restrictions, etc.) and make a determination whether they can safely fly or not,
If the wind conditions are such that they cannot tate off safely during these
hours then they should forego flying just as they would forego flying due to a
severe thunderstorm or other adverse condition. Normally, during the summer
months at least, the winds are almost minimal during this restricted period
each day. The arguement has been advanced that this restriction poses a safety
hazard owing to the fact that operations may occur on conflicting runways.
As this airfield has no control operator pilots are allowed to choose any runway
for takeoff or landing operations. On any given day a visit to the airport
will afford the opportunity to witness any and every runway in use with no
rhyme r reason. If
landing aircraft, then lthe irestriction imposed rbyethe CommissioniPosesof priority gven tonohe
problems that have not always been .in existence at this field. ,
In addition, it has been argued that this restriction isscriminatory.
Are not all the various pilot ratings themselves discriminatory? Are not
various restrictions and limitations placed on pilots depending on whether
stre
umentrating,�alicense,
etc?Asyouclicense,
stransport
welll know,eachlicenseand/orratingn encompasses
fewer restrictions and more privileges. Our restriction is aimed at student
Pilots because we feel that they are the least capable group to handle an
emergency takeoff situation over a dense residential area. As I have already
pointed out, we question whether any pilot might be able to handle an engine
power failure in a single engine aircraft; but feel convinced that students
are least prepared to handle such a critical situation. Thus, I am convinced
(that this restriction on student pilots is necessary to help secure the goal
of safety over residential areas.
The second rationale for imposing this restriction concerns noise
Pollution. Student pilots at this airfield make touch-and-go landings in
closed traffic patterns, resulting in takeoffs as frequent as every 30 sec,
to one minute. Many of these takeoffs and landings were occurring during the
late afternoon and early evening hours...when most families were gathered

CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOIIIES
-3-
in".their backyards for cookouts, relaxation, tending gardens, etc. The
noise from aircraft often made conversation and enjoyment of the outdoors
impossible'during these hours. The residents in the impacted areas became
sufficiently distressed by this persistent noise pollution to draft a peti-
tion which was subsequently signed by 500 residents complaining of the
noise irritation. The Iowa City Airport is, after all, a muni.cipal project:
thus I believe that the citizens of Iowa City who are not themselves flyers
or aviation enthusiasts, should be entitled to a few hours of peace and
quiet each evening without having to tolerate the aircraft noise contributed
by student pilots who are learning-to fly primarily for pleasure. I hasten
to point out that there are 19 hours every day of the week when student-
pilots are permitted to pursue their avocation under this restriction. I do
not feel that 5 hours each day is an excessive amount of time for the student
flying public to yield to the vast majority of the public which is non-flying.
As the restriction imposed by the Commission has become very controversial, and
as we are receiving conflicting advice, I -would greatly appreciate receiving
from your office information as to exactly -what restrictions this Airport
Commission can impose on student pilots without violating FAA regulations. It
is certainly not our intent to disregard FAA regulations, but as unpaid members
of the Airport Commission we do not havesufficient time to review and study the
extensive FAA regulations, even if those regulations were readily available to
us. I would greatly appreciate a reply to this letter by August 16, 1979 (the
next regularly scheduled Airport Commission meeting) as the Commission needs
to have guidance in .this matter. If this matter is too complicated to address ade-
quately in a letter, would it be possible to have a FAA representative attend
this meeting to brief the Commission on how to resolve this safety and noise
problem? ,
Your cooperation in this matter will be greatly appreciated by the
Iowa City Airport Commission and a great many concerned citizens of Iowa City.
Sincerely,
YartURaddick

her background and indicated that through her work with handicapped
students, she became aware of the need for more appropriate housing
for handicapped persons.
4. Coordinator's Report - Seydel apprised Commission of proposed Fair
Market Rents for Section 8 Housing Assistance and advised that per-
mission had been obtained from HUD to increase rents on 66 units pre-
sently at FMR by 108, to increase 57 units currently at FMR plus 108
to FMR plus 208, but that there are 26 units currently at FMR plus 208
that will remain unchanged until new Fair Market Rents are approved
at which time they will be increased in line with the new rates retro-
active to April 1.
It was further reported that other program changes involve [the security
deposit; that rental assistance can now be provided for owner occupied
mobile hares (not to exceed pad rent, plus one time charge for utility
hookup); that if tenant terminates during the month, lease can now be
continued through the month without requiring repayment of HAP.
Public Housing - one year extension on Public Housing requested and
approved. One additional site has been submitted for tentative site
approval along with a request that 40/48 units be consolidated on one
site. Klaus raised question of impaction on grade school. Advised
that school district had previously advised no impaction anticipated.
Agreement has been reached with County enabling us to provide housing
assistance payments to unincorporated areas of county.
5. Housing Information Pamphlet - Kevin Laverty. Kevin reported that
the pamphlet is an element of the Housing Assistance Plan and there
is a responsibility to produce to meet HUD's intention for the Block
Grant and as such should feature publ4c programs. However, it should
also be a directory of facilities and programs throughout the community.
Target date is August 15 to meet the.Septenber housing rush. Funding
will be through the Block Grant. Proposed outline was distributed
with request to review and provide input before next meeting.
6. Meeting time - the next meeting will be Thursday, July 5th at 3:30 p.m.

SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION:
Chairperson Gilpin brought the meeting to order. Sokol moved to adopt the minutes
of June 7, 1979 as read. Berry seconded, minutes were adopted unanimously.
COM961ITTEE REPORTS:
Johnson County Regional Planning - Knight
Knight reported the Commission was moving towards a final presentation on recommen-
dations for the North Corridor. When the report is more concrete a presentation
will be made to the Riverfront Commission.
INTERIM REPORT -- Kathy Campbell:
Milkman explained to the Commission that the interim report was on an investigation
of ownership and land use along the Iowa River to be used in implementing a river
buffer and trail system. The report will develop priorities for purchasing land
and developing a trail system.
Campbell presented and explained two maps showing ownership, land use, and existing
and potential trails. Campbell said there are some problem areas along the river
regarding a buffer zone and trail because some buildings are constructed close
to the river and .in other cases the terrain is unsuitable for a trail.
Gilpin asked if the ownership of some parcels were unknown. Campbell said almost
all the owners have been identified.
I
Milkman said Campbell would write a report to describe problem areas and possible
solutions for the establishment of a river buffer area and trails. Cost estimates
for projects will also be included in the report.
Gilpin suggested that Campbell conduct a survey of riverfront properties where
erosion was taking place. The mayor could write a letter to residents needing
to rip rap explaining the problem and how they could get advice on rip rapping
from the Iowa Natural Resources Council. Campbell suugested to place an asterisk
on the map indicating properties whose river bank needs rip rapping.
Knight said the Commission should check with the Corps of Engineers or other agencies
about erosion problems along the Iowa River. Sokol suggested that construction
of wing dams might case the problems.

With Gilpin and indicated that there should not he any problems and he would
have the Airport Commission vote on the matter at their next meeting.
Tegler reported that she and Tim Darr, State Conservation Commission officer,
visited the proposed boat ramp site at Sturgis Ferry Park. Dorr preferred the
southern site to the northern site for the same reasons as the Riverfront Commission.
Dorr said he would have his superior check the site, but he could not forsee any
problems. Milkman and Tegler also reported on a review of the Sturgis Ferry Park
site by Dennis Showalter (Director of Parks and Recreation), Gilpin, Knight,
Sokol and Bill Klatt of Stanley Consultants. Showalter felt the ramp should be
and located at Napoleon Park. Showalter was concerned with erosion, maintenance,

City has received the necessary letters of approval from the State Historical
Preservation Society and the Fish and Wildlife Commission for building the ramp.
The Airport Commission is the only organization left to approve the site. Gilpin
called the U.S. Army Corps of Engineersat Rock Island regarding the time needed
for issuing a permit for ramp construction and was told it would take approximately
45 days for approval.
Klatt said if the spring is not very wet, construction of the ramp could be started
in late June. Gilpin suggested erecting a sign at Sturgis Ferry Park to inform
People of the future ramp site.
RIVER CORRIDOR OVERLAY ZONE:
Don Schmeiser, Senior Planner, was available to present the River Corridor Overlay
Zone (ORC). Schmeiser explained that Dan Johnson, an intern in the Planning Depart-
ment, wrote the first draft of the ORC. Milkman and Schmeiser then reviewed the
been
zone and made the necessary revisions. Schmeiser noted that the ORC had not yet

A question was raised as to what determined the river corridor. Schmeiser said the
Stanley reports were used to determine the corridor.
Gilpin asked what the sequence of review for the ORC was. Schmeiser said the
Riverfront Commission would review it first, then the Planning and Zoning Commission
and then the ORC goes to the City Council for approval. Public hearings on the
j whole Zoning Ordinance will be held by Planning and Zoning Commission and the City
Council.
After discussion of some aspects of the ORC Schmeiser suggested to the Commission
that they review the ORC page by page at a future meeting. Milkman added that
initially the staff wanted to see of they were headed in the right direction with
the ORC, according to the Riverfront Commission request. The next meeting will
i be devoted to the review of the River Corridor Overlay Zone.

RECOMMENDATIONS TO CITY COUNCIL:
The Committee on Community Needs recommends that the City Council consider the
Human Needs Plans drawn up at considerable expense and effort and that funds
should be found to continue the program with a fulltime Human Needs Coordinator.
The Committee on Community Needs recommends to the City Council that $7,400
CDBG funds be carried over to FY80 for the Energy Conservation program as
requested, so the Solar Demonstration project may be completed.
The Committee on Community Needs recommends to the City Council to consider
once more some type of traffic control for Sheridan Avenue as the residents
of the area have requested.
SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION:
Chairperson Swisher brought the meeting to order. Hall moved the adoption of
the minutes of May 30, 1979 and June 27, 1979 as read. Amidon seconded, both
sets of minutes were approved unanimously.
Milkman reminded the Committee on Community Needs (CCN) of the Small Cities
Neighborhood meeting, July 25, 1979 at 7:30 p.m. in the Armory. A HUD represent-
ative and a local appraiser will be present.
Johnson asked if the Small Cities application would be approved. Milkman said that
approval of the pre -application eeeentially means the application will be funded.
However, the funding available may not be the same as requested. Hencin noted
that the meeting at the Armory was to alleviate the problems and fears of the
people in the area about acquisition procedures.
Milkman distributed a letter from Kevin Laverty, Planner, regarding the closing
of an alley at Muscatine Street. There will be a meeting held for the residents
of this area to discuss the closing on Wednesday August 1, 1979 at 7:30 p.m.
in the Council Chambers.
Milkman asked CCN members to review the CDBG 6 -month work schedule before the
;I next meeting.
HUMAN NEEDS PLAN -- Pam Ramser:
Pam Ramser of Johnson County Regional Planning Commission distributed a memo
summarizing the completed work projects of the Human Needs Plan. Ramser said
a proposal for an ongoing planning process had been presented to the Johnson
County Board of Supervisors, the Iowa City City Council, and the United Way
for funding and that she had been hired as a half-time planner to coordinate
Human Services. At the present time budgets from agencies are being reviewed.

The agencies requesting funds will present their programs to the Johnson County
Board of Supervisors, the City Council and United Way jointly. Ramser asked
CCN to help express the need for ongoing coordination and addressing of identi-
fied needs.
Patrick moved to recommend that the City Council consider the Human Needs Plans
drawn up at considerable expense and effort and that funds should be found
to continue the program with a full-time Human Needs Coordinator. Hall seconded
motion carried unanimously.
HOUSING REHABILITATION:
Mike Kucharzak, Director of Housing Inspection Services, distributed the revised
Housing Rahabilitation portion of the 5th year CDBG application. Milkman added
that HUD said the Emergency Repair and Winterization programs were not eligible
activities. Kucharzak distributed copies of a Dwelling Unit Inspection Report
Booklet for self inspection and explained the Section 8 Housing Standards required
by HUD. Kucharzak said Iowa City's Housing Standards are higher than HUD's.
Kucharzak noted that several 312 loans had been received from HUD last year. He
then asked CCN how they felt the $70,000 allocated this fiscal year for Housing
Rehabilitation should be spent. He specifically requested that CCN make recommen-
dations on whether to use grants or loans, priorities for elderly and low income,
and the standards to be used for rehabilitation. After CCN decides how to spend
the $70,000, he would respond with budget figures.
Johnson asked why something could not be done to homes that are abandoned or run
down. Kucharzak said at this time there is a high rate of turnover in employees
and several pending court cases regarding Code Enforcement. Only occupied housing
needs to meet the codes unless the structure is determined dangerous then it cowls
be demolished.
Johnson felt Iowa City's code standards should be used instead of HUD's for the
rehabilitation program. Kucharzak said the City Council needs to receive a re-
commendation from CCN on the Rehabilitation program by September.
ENERGY CONSERVATION:
Roger Tinklenberg, Energy Coordinator, told the Committee that the Solar Demonstration
project was ready to operate, and he would be working with seven residents on energy
monitoring and installation of solar panels. Tinklenberg requested $4,700 in
carryover funds to be used in FY80 for completion of the project.
Horton moved to recommend to the City Council that $7,400 CDBG funds be carried
over to FY80 for the Energy Conservation program as requested, so the Solar
Demonstration project may be completed. Patrick seconded, motion approved
unanimously.
RECRUITING CCN MEMBERS:
Milkman said the City Council would not make new appointments to CCN until September.
CCN members need to recruit people for the Committee. Milkman said the elderly,
minorities, low -moderate income, and handicapped persons should be represented
as well as other citizen groups.

Johnson suggested writing to the JayGebs.
Johnson told the Committee that the Housing Code Enforcement program has been
enforced inequitably during the past year. In six months if nothing has been
done to improve the program, Johnson feels CCN should make a recommendation
to City Council that the program is not working. The consensus of the Committee
was to monitor the program carefully to see if homes that needed to be brought
up to code were infact now in compliance.
STOP SIGN AT SHERIDAN AVENUE:
Swisher informed the Committee that residents of Sheridan Avenue have asked for
a stop sign on Sheridan Avenue to reduce speeding on the street.
Swisher moved to recommend to the City Council to consider once more some type
of traffic control for Sheridan Avenue as the residents of the area have requested.
Patrick seconded, motion approved unanimously.

Proposal for an ongoing planning and coordination process de-
veloped in November, 1978 by Program Development Subcommittee
of the Project submitted to Iowa City, Johnson County, and
United May. Original proposal was scaled down after input from
representatives of these three bodies and revised version sub-
mitted in February, 1979.
The revised version of the proposal was funded by Iowa City and
Johnson County. The funding from Iowa City will pay for a half-
time human service staff person; the funding from Johnson County
Will pay for United Way to carry on some tasks of the program.
Johnson County Regional Planning and United Way will also make
contributions of adminstrative support to the program. JCRPC and
United Way will cooperate in carrying out the program.
Human Services Program for FY '80
Responsibilities designated to JCRPC
Human Services staff in JCRPC will check agencies' completed budget
forms (for United Way, Aid to Agencies, and Johnson County human
service programs) for accuracy and analyze the information. The
analysis will involve information from the Human Service Profiles,
i previous years' budget requests and allocations, site visits, etc.
The A-95 Review of human service funding requests from federal sources
will be done in a more thorough and meaningful way, allowing all known
affected agencies and parties to have input into this process.
Responsibilities designated to United Way
United Way staff will hold two sessions to explain the new joint bud-
get forms developed by the Human Services Project - one for agencies
and one for the three funding bodies (Iowa City, Johnson County, United
Way).
United Way will also have the responsibility for printing updates of
j the Johnson County Services Index and distributing them to users.
United Way will set a schedule for the budget hearings and copy and
distribute completed budget forms and analyses done by JCRPC staff.
i
JCRPC staff and United Way staff will jointly review the program,

MEMBERS PRESENT: Lilly, Summcrwill, Scibcrling, Wegman, Wockenfuss, Sinck
]Yore
MEMBERS ABSENT: Alexander, Haupert
STAFF PRESENT: Chiat, Deevers, Glaves
SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION:
Chairperson Lilly brought the meeting to order. Lafore moved to adopt the
minutes of June 27, 1979 as read, Sinek seconded. The minutes were adopted
unanimously.
Wockenfuss asked Glaves what the Hotel situation was. Glaves said a resolution
was passed to revoke the DEY Building Corporation as the preferred developer
for the Hotel site. A draft of the marketing documents for the parcel is
currently being reviewed by the Legal Department and Don Zuchelli.
Seiberling asked when construction would begin on the Lucas Building. Claves
said he expected construction to begin this fall.
BLOCK 64 -- PARKING RAMP:
Glaves presented the plans for the Block 64 Parking Ramp and explained that the
appearance of this ramp would be similar to the other ramp now under construction.
The ramp will be located on Burlington Street between Linn and Dubuque. The ramp
is being constructed to be expanded in the future if necessary. The present
plan accomidates 450 vehicles which may be expanded to 650 vehicles. To match
the Hotel, the stair towers on the north corners will be brick. The stair tower
on Burlington Street has also been designed as brick. Glaves asked the Committee
if they felt the south tower should harmonize with the pre -cast concrete front
on Burlington Street. Seiberling asked if the cost was different between the
brick and the concrete. Claves said the cost was essentially the same.
Lilly asked if both ramps could be viewed from any point in downtown. Glaves
said they both could be seen. Summerwill commented that she would rather see
i the stair tower on the Burlington Street side the same materia] as the rest of
the ramp. Claves noted that the panels on the stair tower would break the
horizontal lines of the ramp.
The consensus of the Design Review Committee was to use concrete panels for the
stair tower on Burlington Street instead of brick.
j p
There will be two entrances on Dubuque Street. The exits will be located on
i Dubuque Street with a possible separate exit for patrons of the Hotel on Linn
Street. Different tickets may be used by the general public and the Hotel
guests. Along Burlington Street, there will be plantings.
C Lilly inquired as to how many levels the parking ramp would include. Glaves said
four complete levels and a portion of a level.
A question was raised if there was an alley between the ramp and the Ilotel.
j Glaves said the City will maintain a temporary casement of 25 feet between

the Hotel and the ramp. The reason is because if the ramp is expanded in the
future, a crane can then move down both sides of the ramp for easier construction.
Lafore moved to approve the plans for the Block 64 parking ramp with the pro-
vision that the plans be changed to show the south stair tower on Burlington
Street be concrete panels instead of brick. Wegman seconded, motion approved
unanimously.
OTHER:
The Committee expressed their appreciation to Glaves regarding the successfulness
Of City Plaza. Claves noted that signs using non-verbal symbols to inform
People that no pets, autos, or bikes were permitted in City Plaza would be
used. The locations for these signs would either be the kiosk near the
Of the
board or on the planters at each end of the Mall. The consensus
a the Committee was to place the signs on the planters at each end of the
Mall.
theyLilly suggested to change the color of the flood lights on the kiosks because
made the wood appear greenish in color.
Claves informed the Committee that eight bicycle racks
in City Plaza) are being ordered and should be installe(which
d this yearh the
ones
will be located on Clinton Street near 'Things, 'Things $ Things, ar First rack
eral and on Linn Street behind Penny's.
ed -
Lilly wished to express extreme gratification with the location and design of
the plantings in City Plaza.
Claves said some plantings were not acceptable and will be left in until they
can be replaced. Any dead plants will be taken out immediately and then replaced.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION:

minutes be approved as circulated. Motion carried unanimously (3-0).
i
V-7908. Public hearing on an application submitted by Quentin H. Pitzen for a
variance in Sections 8.10.26B and 8.10.3A.76 to allow construction of an accessory
building (garage) within the required front yard.
! Boothroy presented an overlay of the area and explained that the property has
severe topographical limitations which limit the area for construction of a garage.
i
He further stated that a smaller { j garage could be built on the property and be in
compliance with the Zoning Ordinance. He also explained that this construction
j was a convenience rather than a hardship in that a smaller structure could be built.
Robert Downer, attorney for the applicant, stated that the lot was 75-80% unusable.
Ile did explain that while the garage is larger than those designed for most homes
that Mr. Pitzen needed the larger size in connection with his work. Ile presented
photos of the house and lot that illustrated the irregular design and shape. Also
presented was a petition of property owners stating that they did not ohject to the
proposed garage.
Boothroy explained that there appeared to be nothing unusual about this proposal
and stated that the house was purchased with these constraints present. It was
pointed out that these constraints could have been considered in the lower
purchase price of the house.

Regarding questions of the possibility of placing the workshop in a basement, Mr.
Downer pointed out that it would be extremely difficult to get construction materials
out of the basement. He further pointed out that there is no vehicular access at
this point.
Cook asked if Mr. Downer was contending uniqueness in this case due to the 756
unusable space. His answer was that this was substantially correct. In answer to
other questions by Ms. Cook, Mr. Downer indicated that other lots in the area had
more livable and usable space and that to alter the proposed plans would mean
increased costs for the Pitzens.
After some discussion, Ilaldus moved and Hughes seconded that action on this item be
deferred until the applicant could present (1) a topographical map of the lot and
surrounding lots and (2) cost estimates for alternatives to the proposed plans.
Motion carried unanimously (3-0).
V-7909. Public hearing on an application submitted by Hy -Vee Food Stores, Inc., for
a variance in Section 8.10.35.8D.Id to allow a ]SO square foot free standing sign.
Boothroy presented an overlay of the proposed development and explained that there
were no conforming 150 square foot signs erected within the City Limits. He further
explained that the proposed development lies within two zones (M] which is light
industrial and CH which is highway commercial), and that a free standing sign in the
Ml zone can be a maximum of 50 square feet and that in the CH zone it can be a maximum
of 12S square feet.
Steven Victor, representing Hy -Vee Food Stores, presented drawings and scale models
of the proposed sign and the sign that would be allowed by the Zoning Ordinance. lie
explained that the configuration of the buildings does not allow for full representa-
tion of facia signs from the highway. Regarding a question about what the hardship
would be if the larger sign were not allowed, Mr. Victor explained that the cost of
the signs could be twice as much since Hy -Vee has a purchase agreement based on
a certain number of signs a year plus the fact that a new mold would have to be
•made for the size allowed.
Regarding questions as to why the 125 square foot maximum was set, Bernie Wyatt of
!vesper Sign Company stated that he had served on the committee that worked on these
requirements and that the requirements were drawn primarily from the previous
ordinance. He also stated that as the supplier of signs for Hy -Vee he had never had
a situation arise before where a development was situated in two different zones.
Boothroy stated that to his knowledge there were at least two other establishments
in Iowa City that had signs in stock that did not comply with the Zoning Ordinance
and that these establishments had been required to conform to the regulations of
the Zoning Ordinance.
After some discussion, Baldus moved and Harris seconded that the request by Hy -Vee
Food Stores, Inc., for a variance in Section 8.10.35.8D.1d to allow a 150 square
foot free standing sign be denied. Motion carried with Ilaldus and Harris voting for
denial and Hughes voting against the denial.
Schmeiser indicated that an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance was coming before the

Planning and Zoning Commission which, if approved, would allow two facia signs on
buildings on corner lots in the CBS.
V-7910. Public hearing on an application submitted by Dr. Victor G. Edwards and
Dr. Larry G. Rigler for a Special Use Permit according to Section 8.11.02.12D.3 to
permit parking to be located less than ten meters from the Ralston Creek bank.
Boothroy presented an overlay and explained that this case was identical to V-7903
which had been approved in March by the Board. In reviewing the drawings submitted
by Shive-Hattery, it was discovered that they had submitted the wrong drawings for
review.
During the discussion with the Board, John Willers of Shive-Hattery and Dr. Victor
Edwards were present to answer questions. When asked if he was familiar with the
conditions attached to the approval of the Abrams case, Dr. Edwards stated that he
was familiar with these conditions and that he took exception with the condition
requiring a warning system to be maintained by the resident manager. He felt that
this would be ineffective since the manager would probably be present for 8 hours
at a time. lie also felt that if flood warnings were the only warnings received by
the system it would be more effective.
After some further discussion, Baldus moved and Harris seconded that the request
by Dr. Victor G. Edwards and Dr. Larry G. Bigler for a Special Use Permit according
to Section 8.11.02.120.3 to permit parking to be located less than ten meters from
the Ralston Creek bank be granted subject to the following conditions: (1) notice
of the possible flooding dangers be described in detail in the leases; (2) signs
describing the potential hazard be posted in the parking lot; and (3) the applicants
shall be responsible for maintenance of the creek bank, including removal of trees,
shrubs, debris, etc. The motion was approved unanimously (3-0).
Hughes stated that she found it necessary to submit her resignation from the Board
of Adjustment since she was moving to Coralville. She presented a letter of
resignation (copy attached) which was forwarded to the City Manager's Office.
Baldus asked staff to prepare a memo to be distributed to applicants for variances
which would explain exactly what evidence the Board was looking for in reviewing
requests and also giving the applicant some idea of what questions they might be
asked and what materials they might be asked to present to the Board.
There being no further business, Baldus moved and Harris seconded that the meeting
be adjourned. Motion carried unanimously (3-0).

located two miles east of Highway 1 on Rapid Creek Road; 45 -day limitation period:
8/30/79, 60 -day limitation period: 9/29/79.
Mr. Bruce Haupert, attorney for the applicant, requested that the Commission consider
waiving the rural design standards for the subject subdivision as done for previous
subdivisions since it is just within the City's extraterritorial jurisdiction and
it is unlikely that it ever will be annexed.
After discussion by the Commissioners, they generally agreed that the design standards
should be waived in lieu of the improvements being proposed but that storm water
management should be incorporated at some future date by a deferred installation
agreement.
No action was taken.
Public discussion to consider whether or not an amendment to the City's Urban Renewal
Plan is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan,
Paul Claves, Development Coordinator, explained the nature of the proposed amendment
to the City's Urban Renewal Plan including the retention of sites termed as
"Blackhawk Mini -Park" and the "library site". It was indicated that the Commission
must determine whether the proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan prior
to the Council meeting of August 14.
No action was taken.
Public discussion of a proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance by amending
Section 8.10.35.11 of the Sign Regulations to allow two (2) facia signs on buildings

5-7917. Public discussion of a preliminary and final plat of Hickory Ridge Estates,
located two miles east of Highway I on Rapid Creek (load; 45 -day limitation period:
8/30/79, 60 -day limitation period: 9/29/79.
Schmeiser presented an overlay and explained that the proposed development is located
within Iowa City's two mile extraterritorial jurisdiction. Ile also stated that the
developer proposes to develop three single family lots in this area. After he
listed the deficiencies and discrepancies, Bruce Haupert, attorney for the developer,
stated that there was no apparent problem in dealing with these deficiencies and
discrepancies.
Larry Schnittjer, NNS Consultants, stated that the roadway in the development would
be realigned but that this should present no problem.
Following a brief discussion on this item, Kammermeyer moved and Ogesen seconded that
the preliminary and final plat of Hickory Ridge Estates, located two miles east of
Highway 1 on Rapid Creek Road, be approved contingent upon (1) a note being
provided on the plat indicating that all utilities will be underground, (2) the
cross section for Charles Drive be accepted and the Rural Subdivision Standards be
waived in this instance, (3) the culverts being concrete, (4) the legal papers
i being revised, (5) the signatures of the utility companies and the registered land
surveyor being provided, (6) the complete curb data being provided for Rapid Creek
Road, and (7) the installation of the stormwater detention basin being delayed with
City Council having the prerogative of reviewing this decision in case one of the
following events occurs (a) resubdivision of any lot, (b) the passing of 15 years
from date of final plat approval, and (c) annexation by the City. Motion carried
unanimously (4-0).
Public discussion to consider whether or not an amendment to the City's Urban Renewal
Plan is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
Blum stated that for the sake of discussion the Commission would consider the library
site and the mini -park site separately.
Commissioners discussed whether the issue of a new library and the proposed library
site were addressed in the Comprehensive Plan. The consensus of the Commissioners
was that while the Comprehensive Plan did not talk about the Central Business
District the library was specifically addressed regarding the need for expansion
and ratification of a bond issue for a new library.
Following a brief discussion on this topic, Ogeson moved and Kammermeyer seconded
that the deletion of Parcel 65-4 (the library site) from the Urban Renewal Plan is
not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan and that by reference pages 35 and 36
of the Comprehensive Plan (which allude to the proposed library) be incorporated
into this recommendation. Motion carried unanimously (4-0).
The Commissioners next considered the parcel of Urban Renewal land containing the
Blackhawk mini -park. Blum stated that during the development of the Comprehensive
Plan the Commission had regarded the Urban Renewal Plan as the "Comprehensive Plan
for the downtown area" and that therefore there was no specific reference to the
downtown area in the Comprehensive Plan. A lengthy discussion of whether or not
this proposal is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan followed.

Ogesen moved, and Lehman seconded, that the Commission recommend to the City Council
that the deletion of this parcel (Blackhawk mini -park) from the Urban Renewal Plan
is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and that pages 102 and 103 of the
Comprehensive Plan (which spell out the needs and requirements for parks) be incorpo-
rated into this recommendation. After a brief discussion of the rewording of this
motion, it was reworded as follows: "That the retention of Parcel 65-2 (Blackhawk
mini -park) by the City for use as a park is not consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan and that by reference pages 102 and 103 of the Comprehensive Plan (which spell
out the needs and requirements for parks) be incorporated into this recommendation."
The motion as reworded was approved unanimously (4-0).
The next issue for discussion included possible alternatives for use of this parcel.
It was felt that the essence of the mural and the Blackhawk memorial should be
maintained regardless of what use was placed on the parcel. It was pointed out that
the mural had not been intended to last forever and that its life expectancy was
5-I0 years at the best.
Kammermeycr moved, and Ogesen seconded, that the City Council, during its deliberations
about what should be done with Parcel 65-2 (Blackhawk mini -park), consider the option
of possibly stipulating to prospective buyers if the land is sold that the materials
in the park be relocated and that the spirit and essence of the mural and Blackhawk
memorial be maintained. The vote for approval was 3-1, with Lehman voting against.
Kammermeyer moved, and Ogesen seconded, that the following resolution be approved.
"Resolved: The Iowa City Planning and Zoning Commission would like to
commend Paul Glaves for the hard work and effort he has put into the
job of guiding urban renewal in downtown Iowa City toward a successful
completion and wishes him success in his new endeavors."
The vote was unanimous with all Commissioners voting in favor (4-0).
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

Thank you for expressing your concerns to the Council. Your letter will

amendment is to be presented to the City Council on August 14. If normal
procedures are followed, it could not be put into effect before September 18.
I request expedition of the handling of this amendment by combining all three

F -r- MEMORANDUFA
a
Date: July 11, 1979
To: City Council
From: Don Schmeiser.
Re: Proposed Ordinance Regulating the Location of Assessory Buildings
Section 8.10.26B.2 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that:
"An accessory building more than 10 feet from a main building may
be erected within two (2) feet of a side or rear lot line but must
be located at least 60 feet from the front street line."
1 Figure 1 illustrates this requirement which obviously was intended to
provide as much separation from a detached garage to a residence on an
adjoining lot. As indicated by the Building Official, this has created
a hardship on some property owners who have adequate side yards, as any
accessory building located more than 10 feet from the main building must
i be located 60 feet back from the street. Since the Fire Underwriters
Association encourages a separation of 10 feet from buildings on ad-
jacent lots, it would seem appropriate to'retain this 60 foot provision
and amend Section 8.10.268.2 as follows:
An accessory building shall not be located in a front yard, closer
athan six (6) feet to the main building, or closer than five (5)
i feet to the side or rear lot line. An accessory building, however,
i may be located within three (3) feet of a side or rear lot line if
it is located at least 60 feet from the street, except that an
accessory building shall not be located closer than five (5) feet
from the rear lot line of a reversed corner lot.
The accompanying ordinance includes a recommended change to the pro-
vision above and as recommended by the Commission, by including the word
i "detached" to assessory building.
The reversed corner lot provision takes into consideration a rather
unique situation which is few in number. A reversed corner lot as
defined is:
"A corner lot, the rear of which abuts the side of another lot."
i
As illustrated in Figure 2, a corner lot would have a front lot line and
a side lot line common to the street rights-of-way and a rear lot line
which is opposite the narrowest street dimension. The rear lot line,
however, is common to a side lot line of the adjacent lot.

Adequate water and sewer service is
available.
Sanitation service and police and
fire protection are available.
Access will be provided from Mormon
Trek Boulevard.
The topography is rolling to steep
with maximum slopes of 20 percent.
The applicant proposes to redesign the development plan for Lot 90 and therefore
has submitted an amended final PAD and LSRD plan for Ty'n Cae, Parts I and II.
His purpose for doing this is to improve the site layout. Changes being
proposed are: 1) three six -unit townhouse buildings are being replaced with two
eight -unit townhouse buildings, a density reduction of two units; 2) Cambria
Court is proposed to be 28 feet in width in lieu of 22 feet; and 3) the style of
the units have been redesigned.
The PAD's original concept has not been appreciably altered but is a major
amendment to the approved plans according to the PAD regulations.
RECOMMENDATION
The staff recommends that the amended PAD and LSRD plan be deferred. Upon
revision of the plan correcting the deficiencies and discrepancies noted below,
it is the staff's recommendation that the amended final PAD and LSRD plan be
approved.
DEFICIENCIES AND DISCREPANCIES
1. A signature block for the City Clerk's signature should be provided on the
plan.
2. The plan does not comply with the tree regulations.
3. The legal papers are not in order and should be revised.

ANALYSIS
Attached to this staff report please find a detailed description of the
subdivision. It should also be noted that this development is typical of the
leapfrog and sprawl developments which are occurring in many areas within the
county. Adoption and implementation by the County of a rural land use plan and
formulation of a 28E agreement between the City and the County will provide
necessary controls for this type of development.
This subdivision does not comply with either the Rural Development Standards for
construction of streets or the Storm Water Management Ordinance. The applicant
is requesting that the Commission waive the standards for paving thickness in
favor of the proposed 2V asphaltic surface over a 6" modified Macadam base.
Per the criteria specified within the Rural Development Standards for granting
exceptions to these standards (i.e. likelihood of annexation and feasibility of
supplying services) the City's rural cross section street standard has been
waived for other developments by the Commission for the alternative cross
section as proposed (e.g. Meadeville Subdivision).
Storm water management has not been waived for any development within Rapid
Creek water shed. However, the Council did allow the delaying of construction
of storm water detention basins in Woodland Hills, Part II, on the criteria of
likelihood of annexation, amount of existing development downstream, and being
heavily wooded. The Council insisted upon the right to review this decision on
the happening of one of the three following events: 1) resubdivision of any
lot, 2) the passing of 15 years from date of final plat approval, and 3)
annexation by the City. The subject development meets most of the critera as
used in deciding whether or not the detention basins should be constructed in
Woodland Hills, Part II. The Commission may wish to waive installation of the
detention basins under these same conditions.
Until the Commission and the Council develop criteria by which to apply or not
apply the Rural Development Standards the staff has recommended that the
standards be applied to all areas within the City's two mile extraterritorial
control area.
RECOMMENDATION
It is the staff's recommendation that the preliminary and final plat be
deferred. Upon revision of the plat incorporating the concerns mentioned above
and correcting the deficiencies and discrepancies noted below, the Commission
should determine whether or not to apply all or part of the Rural Development
Standards and give consideration to approval of the plat.
DEFICIENCIES AND DISCREPANCIES
A note should be provided on the plat indicating that all utilities will be
underground.
2. The typical cross section for Charles Drive should be corrected to conform
with the cross section recommended in the Rural Development Standards.

We further state that we have caused the above described real estate
Lo be -subdivided into three (3) lots, all as more particularly set forth
In a survey prepared by MIS Consultants, Inc. and dated May 16, 1979, and
that said subdivision is known as "HICKORY RIDGE' ESTATES" and is platted
with our free consent and in accordance with our desire.
Ilecause of the smallness of this subdivision and its simplicity, we
are filing a combined preliminary and final plat at one time.
We wish to subdivide a 10.05 acre tract into only three (3) residential
lots, providing that only one single-family residential dwelling be
constructed upon each lot (each of which is approximately acres it
size), and that no subdivision of these lots shall be madpossi�le This D

protection is seL forth in the protective covenant, and resLrictions,
a copy of which is attached hereto and by this; reference made a part
hereof.
We intend to construct our own family residence upon one of these
lots, and intend to return to the City of Iowa City from California
shun.
There will be one short cul-de-sac road for ingress and egress,
Which shall be maintained by the lot owners as set out in the covenants,
all of which will be managed by a Road Maintenance Agreement and the
Hickory Ridge Estates Homeowners' Association.
I The subdivision has one well, which will be situated within the
center of the cul-de-sac, and will service all three lots. This is
highly recommended and very well received by the Johnson County Director
Of Ilealth.

We have provided in our covenants that any owners of lots within
the subdivision Shall be bound by the terms and conditions of the
agreement between Lite City of Iowa City and us, although annexation is
j probably remote.
This property is located at the extreme end of the 2 -mile extra
territorial limit and, almost touches the Linc describing said limit.
The covenants further require that each lot owner provide for the
storage of sir. (6) automobiles on the lot. We respectfully request that
the pavement width in this subdivision (since it will be serving only
three families) be reduced from 28 feet back-to-back curb, to 22 feet
back-to-back curb. This reduction Is requested pursuant to Section 32-7(b)
Of the subdivision regulations of Lite Iowa CiLy Code. This provision

allows a reducLion from 28 fuel to 22 feel if provislon is made for
the storage of at least five (5) automobiles un each lot as provided
in Section 8.10.25 of the zoning ordinance.
Along with the reducLion of wJdth, we are also requesting that a
variance he granted in the design standards for new developments located
outside the City limits of Iowa City, but wiLhin the two-mile extra
territorial limit. These design standards require pavement of a thickness
of G" Portland concrete or 8" asphaltic concrete. Our engineer has
recommended a very excellent surface at a much reduced cost and one which
apparently has received favorable comment by the City administration,
consisting of a deep cadmium base with an asphaltic seal.
We have entered into a fencing agreement with the adjoining property
owners.
The property is largely on a hillside and is heavily -studded with
full-grown hickory and oak trees. We have provided in the protective
covenants that when developing the site plan for the location of dwellings
on eadh lot, as many of the existing trees shall be left standing as is
reasonably possible.
The covenants further provide for a very excellent septic system
consisting of a 2 -tank method involving a 1,000 gallon tank and a 500
gallon tank. The covenants further preclude the location of soil
absorption systems closer than 150 feel from elle common well and that
the septic tanks will be pumped once every three years. This liar, been
described as an excellent and very, very safe system by the County Health
Director.

MEMORANDUM
DA/E; August 3, 1979
TO: City Council
FROM: Paul Claves, Development Coordinator
RE: Amendment to the Urban Renewal Plan
Attached to this memorandum is a resolution modifying the Urban Renewal Plan for
Project Iowa R-14. This resolution amends the plan by inserting a provision in the
text, providing for the new public library. The resolution also amends the Plan by
deleting the Land Disposition Plan (map) and substituting in its place a revised
Land Disposition Plan (map).
The revised map attached to this memorandum deletes from the disposition plan
Parcel 65-4 (the library site) and Parcel 65-2 (the Blackhawk Mini -Park) as dispo-
sition parcels to be sold. A public hearing on this Urban Renewal Plan amendment
is scheduled for August 14 and the resolution is scheduled for consideration by the
City Council on August 28.
As reflected in the minutes of the Council meeting of July 5, 1977 (copy attached),
the Council deferred the sale of Parcel 65-2 until the completion of City Plaza.
Because the Plaza is nearing completion and because it is necessary to amend the
plan regarding the library site at this time, the staff has included in the amendment
for Council consideration the question whether or not the Blackhawk Mini -Park will
he sold.
The amendment was referred to the Planning and Zoning Commission, and was considered
at their meeting held August 2, 1979. Pursuant to Section 403.5(2) of the Code of
Iowa, 1979, the Commission was asked to make its recommendation as to the amendment's
conformity with the Comprehensive Plan. The Commission found, by 4-0 votes in
both instances, that the amendment was not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan
as it relates to the library site, but was not consistent as it relates to the mini -
park site.
Section 403.5(4)b of the Code of Iowa states that the Council may approve an urban
renewal project (or amendment) if it finds that such plan or amendment conforms to
the general plan for the community as a whole. The language of Section 403.5 of the
Code makes the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendation advisory, and Council
finding mandatory.
The staff does not agree with the conclusion of the Planning and Zoning Commission
that retaining the mini -park is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Because
the Plan is a general document which does not purport to dictate micro -level
solutions, it is the staff's opinion that the Plan contains policies which would
allow either the sale of the parcel for commercial development, or its retention as
a part of City Plaza. The basis for this staff position is set forth below.
The text of the Plan sets forth several basic goals and objectives for community
growth and development. Specifically, the Plan contains provisions related to
economic growth and commercial development and provisions related to the provisions
of parks and open space. At the general level these are not mutually exclusive, but
at the micro -level the question as to whether a specific site should be a commercial
WS

['age 2
building or open space make the policies conflicting as they relate to a specific
parcel. At the micro -level it becomes a policy decision, supported in either event,
as to which goal or objective should take precedence.
It is clear that commercial use on Parcel 65-2 is consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan. The Council is referred to page 29 of the Plan, specifically Goal a-1,
Objective b-1, and Recommendation a -l. This conclusion is further reinforced by
Policy Number 1 set forth on page 30.
It is equally valid, in the staff's opinion, to conclude that retaining Parcel 65-2
as a park or open space is consistent with the Plan.
The Council should note that the Plan in the first paragraph on page 102 contemplates
mini -parks. The fact that no specific standards for them are set forth does not make
them an invalid form of open space. On the contrary, specific provisions of the
Plan call for a "complete range of parks." See for example, Objective b-2 on page 35
and Policy 4 on page 37.
It is the staff's position that the provisions of the Plan relating to providing
open space and parks in relation to residential location and density apply in the
intensely urban environment of the CBD as well as the more usual residential areas
of Iowa City, because the CBD is, to a considerable extent, residential as well as
commercial. It is precisely because the CBD is devoid of open space that City
Plaza was constructed in the first instance. Whether or not to expand the space by
using a single adjacent parcel is not a change precluded by the Comprehensive Plan.
The staff is also of the opinion that the fact that the mini -park parcel is shown on
the Plan map as commercial does not preclude use of the site as part of City Plaza.
First, the land use designations on the map arc for the most part general and not
specific to the level of specific portions of platted lots. Applying the logic that
the color of the lot on the map recludes a non-commercial use would apply equally
to the library site, in that it also is shown as commercial rather than institutional
This conclusion is clearly contrary to the Council's intent at the time the Plan
was adopted.
It is the staff's opinion that the Council is confronted with a policy decision that
is neither legally constrained by the Comprehensive Plan, nor technically constrained
by one clearly superior solution. The decision rests on the Council's judgements
regarding a trade-off between pursuing commercial and economic goals and pursuing
recreational and open space goals. -
In order to assist the Council to evaluate this trade-off the staff is providing
the following technical information.
The amendment as it relates to the library site is self explanatory. In accordance
with long standing plans of the Library Board and the City Council, the site will not
be offered for sale and will be retained by the City for library use. It will he
necessary to deposit the appraised value of the site ($155,000) to the CDBG program
revenue account, using library or other funds, at the time the Library Board takes
possession of the site for construction. This is because central libraries are expressly
ineligible block grant activities, as set forth in Section 570.201(A)2 of Title 24,
the Code of Federal Regulations.

The mini -park site can be sold, or can be retained by the City as part of City
Plaza. It is the staff's opinion that the mini -park can be retained by the City
without reimbursement to the Block Grant program, because parks are an eligible
activity, and because when added to become a part of City Plaza the City would be
using the parcel as part of previously planned activities. (See provision N4 of
page 7, The Urban Renewal Plan -- copy attached).
Parcel 65-2 has an appraised value of $78,000. If sold for private redevelopment
at least this amount, and probably a greater sum, would be available for CDBG
program purposes. If the mini -park is retained as part of City Plaza by the City, ,
it will be a Council policy decision whether or not to use park or other City funds,
to reimburse the CDBG program.
If the parcel is sold for private redevelopment, the development would contain in all
probability, a two or three story building, containing from 14,500 to 21,800 square
feet of space. This development would generate from $28,000 to $42,000 in property
taxes each year at current rates. Of this total property tax, between $7,000 and $10,000
per year would be paid into the City general fund,

From: Mike Kucharzak
Re: Electrical Permit for Old Capitol House Apartments
On June 26, 1979, we issued an electrical permit to Kahler Electric
Company of Iowa City to permform electrical work on the Old Capitol House
apartment complex on East Court Street. Mr. Kahler is an electrician
licensed by the City of Iowa City and is presently in good standing.
Mr. Kahler recently sold his firm, Kahler Electric, to White Electric of
Chariton, Iowa. White Electric holds the subcontract to do the electrical
work on the Capitol House apartment complex.
Mr. Ronald Kahler continues his residency in the Iowa City area and has
been instructed by Mr. White to continue the management and operations of
the Kahler Electric subsidiary of White Electric Company. For the above-
mentioned reasons, I, as building official, wish to assure the City
Council and the City Manager that in fact the electrician and the permit
for the Capitol House Apartments is in good order and is in complete
agreement with City codes.
Should any member of the Council desire additional information regarding
this construction project, the firms involved, or any other matters
pertaining to the electrical code, I would be more than happy to meet with
them.

Re: South Gilbertc Project
Bids have been opened on the South Gilbert Street Project. The low bid
was submitted by Metro Pavers of Iowa City for $1,256,982. This is
slightly below the City's estimate of $1,484,535.
Land transactions associated with this project are complex. Prior to
awarding the bid it is absolutely essential that the City complete legal
work with Country Kitchen. Our basic goal here is to trade a piece of
Sand Road to Country Kitchen in return for taking a portion of their
parking lot for the new South Gilbert Street.
At the present time the City is not in a position to guarantee that we
will be able to transfer a portion of Sand Road to Country Kitchen.
This is due to the fact that some legal questions about the Sand Road
abstract have not yet been answered. If the City were to award the bid
and then not be able to transfer land to Country Kitchen, the City would
be liable for very large sums of money to Country Kitchen. Legal
advises that these questions must be cleared up before the project can
go forth.
At this.point there are two options:
1. Defer the bid letting for one week and call Council into special
session next week to award the bid after, and if, most of the legal
questions have been resolved.
2. Readvertise for bids next spring after all legal questions have
been answered.
At this point Council should defer bid letting by motion until a day of
your choice next week.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 10, 1979
TO: City Council
FROM: Paul Glaves, Development Coordinator
RE: Land Acquisition Procedures
A resolution authorizing the City Manager to modify previously established amounts
of just compensation is included on the agenda for the meeting of August 14. The
staff's experience in the acquisition of South Gilbert Street property makes this
revision to our procedures necessary. The procedure which was previously used
calls for the appraisal of the property by an independent appraiser, the review
of those appraisals by a review appraiser, and the established of just compensation
by the City Council. In the process of negotiations with land owners, the staff
has encountered several instances where minor adjustments in just compensation
are warranted. These situations have arisen for a variety of reasons, but basically
fall into one or two categories. In some instances the technical details of the
land acquisition have changed. For instance, on one parcel the size of an easement
area needed to be increased. In another instance we discovered a mathematical
error in an appraisal.
The second category of possibly necessary revision has occurred through the
negotiation process. In order to negotiate with the land owners, in good faith,
the staff took the position that our appraisals could be revised if the land
owner was able to show with factual information that the appraiser had not taken
a factor into consideration or the appraiser was unaware of some circumstance
affecting the value of the property. It is necessary to take such a position so
as to not "cast in stone" the City's position, leaving the negotiation a take it
or leave it situation.
The necessity of from time to time make minor revisions in just compensation is
hampered on the South Gilbert Street project, and on other projects, by the timing
and pace at which property must be acquired. The problem is made worse when the
Council meets only every other week. As a solution to the problem, the resolution
on the agenda for August 14 authorizes the City Manager to modify previously
established amounts of just compensation. The procedure used would be that the
staff would request the review appraiser to consider any change in the technical
details, or any new information, made by available by the land owners. The
appraiser's revision would be referred to the review appraiser for a new opinion
of value. Upon receiving a new opinion of value, the staff would present the
information and the basis for the suggested revision to the City Manager, who would
then be authorized to approve the adjustment. This will considerably streamline
the land acquisition process by allowing such revisions to be made and contracts
to be entered into without waiting for the next City Council meeting.
Larry Chiat will be available at the informal session on August 13 to discuss this
matter with the City Council, should you so desire.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 2, 1979
Neal Berlin, City Manager
TO: City Council
FROM: Lyle G. Seydel, Housing Coordinator
RE: Cooperative Agreement (28E) Tiffin
1. At the request of Barbara Murray, Johnson County Regional Planning,
I attended a meeting of the Tiffin City Council on July 11. The
Section 8 Existing Housing Program was explained and a 28E Agreement
(Cooperative Agreement) was discussed. The attached letter from the
City Clerk, City of Tiffin, is a request that the City of Iowa City
consider entering into.a Cooperative Agreement with that community.
2. The Code of Iowa provides that two or more municipalities may jointly
exercise powers. The City of Iowa City currently has Cooperative
Agreements with Coralville, University Heights, Riverside and the
Board of Supervisors for the Unincorporated areas of Johnson County.
Inclusion of Tiffin in the area authorized for making Housing Assis-
tance Payments will enhance housing choice for eligible households.
The Iowa City Housing Authority is the only Housing Authority in
Johnson County capable of performing this service. Performing this
service will not cost the city of Iowa City as the Administrative
Pee paid through the Section 8 program supports all costs incurred.
3. The attached Cooperative Agreement is proposed. Please note that
required inspections will be made by the Housing Authority. The
inspection is performed to ensure that the minimum housing quality
standards established by [IUD are being provided prior to payment of
rental payments. The Agreement also includes a hold harmless clause.
4. The Housing Commission has in the past recommended this action. The
staff recommends approval and adoption of the Resolution.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: August 9, 1979
TO: City Council
FROM: Paul Glaves, Development Coordinator
RE: Urban Renewal Parcel 93-3
The City has received a request that Anna and Robert Rath, the redeveloper of Urban
Renewal Parcel 93-3, be allowed to sell the parcel to the Breese Co., because they
have concluded that they are unable to proceed with development as originally set
forth in their offer to purchase. Attached to this memorandum are letters from
Anna Rath and from the Breese Company requesting that the sale be permitted.
Without commenting on the full extent of the legal remedies which the City might
have in this matter, it appears to me that the City has essentially two options.
Option 1 would be to call the redeveloper in default, to forfeit the redeveloper's
deposit ($1,450), to retake title to the property, and to again place the land on
the market. Following the subsequent sale of the land, the City would be entitled
to deduct from the purchase price the expenses of the remarketing and to refund
the balance to the redeveloper. The second option would be to allow the transfer
of interest from Anna and Robert Rath to the Breese Co.
A review of the background concerning this parcel leads me to the conclusion that
approving the transfer of interest is in the best interest of the City.The parcel
has been placed on the market on three occasions. The first time the parcel was
placed on the market no bids were received. The second time the parcel was placed
on the market, Old Capitol Associates submitted a bid, but the bid was contingent
upon their receiving the parcel now occupied by Pentacrest Garden Apartments. The
third time the property was placed on the market bids were received from Anna and
Robert Rath and from the Breese Co. In light of the previous difficulty in marketing
this parcel, I do not have confidence in the success of a rebidding effort.
As explained in the letter from the Breese Co., they wish to purchase the parcel from
Anna and Robert Rath for the purposes set forth in their original offer to the City
submitted on June 9, 1978.
A resolution approving the transfer of interest in this parcel from Robert and Anna
Rath to the Breese Co, is included on the agenda for the meeting of August 14.
Specifically, this resolution provides written agreement by the City that the contract
between the City and the Raths can be assigned to the Breese Co. Further, the
resolution provides the City's consent to the sale of the property to the Breese Co.
at a purchase price of $15,000. The.purchase price at the time the Raths purchased
the property from the City was $14,500. As explained in the letter from Anna Rath,
attached to this memorandum, the costs to date in attempting to develop the parcel
have exceed $2,000. The increase in price of $500 has been discussed with the
Legal Department and they do not believe that this constitutes any violation of the
language of the contract, which specifically states that the consideration payable
for such a transfer shall not exceed an amount representing the actual cost of the
original redeveloper including carrying charges.
The resolution specifically provides that nothing in the resolution modifies the
contractural obligations of the City or the Breese Co, except as specifically
1598

explained in the resolution. The resolution contains the provision that the Breese
Co.'s obligation to construct improvements shall be governed by their offer sub-
mitted .July 9, 1978, rather than improvements ns specified in the Rath offer submitted
in 1978. The effect of this contract modification is that the Breese Co. would be
obligated to develop the parcel as expansion of their parking area but would not be
obligated to construct the two story building as proposed by the Raths.

The staff strongly recommends the adoption of the resolution.

Dear Mr. Glaves:
This letter is a request to sell Urban Renewal parcel 93-3
to the Breese Co.
Since your acceptance of my bid, I have discovered that it
would be impossible for me to develop the parcel within the
specifications of sly bid while keeping construction costs at
anything close to a financially viable level.
I purchased the 93-3 parcel for $14,500.00. 1 intend to
sell it for $15,000.00. The extra $500.00 is an attempt to
defray the $2,000.00 in design work and interest costs that I
have incurred.
Thanking you in advance for your assistance, I am,

MEMORANDUM
DATE: August Ill, 1979
TO: City Council fj(j�
FROM: Paul Glaves, Development Coordinator / O
RE: City Plaza Use Fees
A resolution establishing fees for the use of City Plaza is included on the agenda
for the Council meeting of August 14. The issuance of permits for the use of
City Plaza is governed by Ordinance No. 78-2894, adopted by the City Council on
May Ib, 1978. A copy of this ordinance is attached to this memorandum, for your
reference in considering the fee schedule attached in the resolution. Section 10
of the ordinance provides that fees shall be established by resolution by the
City Council.
Several categories of permits are permitted by the City Plaza Ordinance. Section 5
provides for the issuance of motor vehicle permits. When a business is located
along City Plaza that does not have access to any other right-of-way, the
ordinance allows the issuance of a continuing permit for the purposes of loading
and unloading at that business. The ordinance also permits the issuance of a
temporary permit upon a showing that it is necessary to operate a motor vehicle
within City Plaza. Because in the limited instances where motor vehicle permits
are allowed, the need is caused by the fact that there is no other street available,
the staff recommends that motor vehicle permits be issued without charge.
Section 7 of the ordinance specifies uses permitted in City Plaza. While there is
a rather extensive list of uses set forth in Section 7, they can be classified into
four categories for the purpose of establishing fees. These are mobile vending
carts, ambulatory vending, sales or vending of a temporary or occasional nature,
and cultural or entertainment exhibits or events where no sales occur.
The basis for each of the fees set forth in the resolution under consideration is
set forth below. The purposes for issuing permits in City Plaza are set forth in
Section I of the ordinance. In establishing the fees it is necessary to strike a
balance between the use of fees to control the nmount of commercial activity which
takes place in City Plaza in a manner which is fair to the permittee and is also
fair to competing merchants located in permanent buildings within downtown Iowa
City.
A. Mobile Vending Carts.
The procedures which govern the use of mobile vending carts are set
forth in the ordinance. The operation of a mobile vending cart for
commercial purposes clearly allows the vendor to take advantage of
a substantial public investment in City Plaza. Additionally, a mobile
vendor will carry out commercial activity in competition with other
businesses located in the Central Business District. Therefore, the
staff recommends, and the resolution contains a fee for an annual
permit for mobile vending carts at $250 per year. This level of fee
is not intended to recapture the public investment in City Plaza but
is intended to roughly correspond to a fair market rent of the space
occupied by the mobile vending cart. The fee is based on the assumption
1600
MICROFILMED BY
JORM MICROLAB
CEDAR RAPIDS -DES IIOIIIES
City Council
Angust Ill, 19741
Page L
that the operation of mobile vending carts will be of a seasonal nature
and will not take place more than approximately six months per year.
B. Ambulatory Vending.
Based on the same rationale as the fee for mobile vending carts, the
fee for ambulatory vending is recommended to be $100 per year.
C. There are numerous requests to use City Plaza for the purpose of temporary
or occasional sales of merchandise, hand crafted items, food, and other
items. Because the City's investment in City Plaza has created the
atmosphere which makes this kind of use particularly attractive, it is
appropriate, in the judgment of the staff, to charge a fee for the use
of the Plaza for this type of commercial activity. The resolution establishes
this fee at $10 per day, which in our judgment is nominal in relation to
the considerable returns which can be made through the use of City Plaza
as a commercial location.
D. Cultural or entertainment exhibits or events where no sales occur con-
tribute to the vitality and atmosphere in City Plaza and are specifically
encouraged in the ordinance. The staff recommends that where no commercial
activity, and no sales of merchandise, is carried out in connection with
such exhibits or events thetpermit be issued free of charge.
I have made no attempt to differentiate between casual sales of merchandise by
worthy, non-profit organizations, from casual sales by artisans and vendors who
may substantially earn their livings through street vending because the fee for
temporary or occasional sales is established at a nominal level. Whether or not
sales of merchandise are permitted under the permit is a clear cut, testable,
matter of fact. Whether or not sales of specific items by specific individuals is
particularly worthy or not becomes a matter which is highly subjective. To attempt,
in the permit process, to make a differentiation on the basis of the nature of
individual seeking to sell merchandise becomes administratively unworkable in my
judgment. I have not included in the resolution a provision which allows the City
Manager to waive fees. If the Council believes that such flexibility is appropriate,
the resolution should be amended prior to adoption by the addition of an additional
sentence stating that the City Manager is hereby authorized to waive fees, when in
his judgment such waiver is warranted.
As set forth in Section 10 of the ordinance, it is anticipated that the fees
established by resolution may need to be adjusted from time to time. The ordinance
specifically charges the City Council with periodically reviewing and revising the
fees as appropriate. The staff recommends that fees for the use of City plaza he
established as set forth in the resolution under consideration. The staff does,
however, recognize that as we gain experience in administering the provisions of
the City Plaza ordinance it may be necessary to revise either the fees or the
provisions of the City Plaza ordinance.

Re: Airport Manager
You may have already discussed the position of Airport Manager with the
Department of Human Relations. The Department of Human Relations will
be pleased to assist you.
This effort probably will include a job audit to determine the responsi-
bilities of the position, preparation of a job description, a salary
survey, if necessary, and the use of recruitment and selection pro-
cedures which comply with applicable local, state and federal regula-
tions.
While this process may take some time, it is important for the long-term
succes: of the airport that the Airport Commission clearly define the
responsibilities which it wishes the Airport Manager to perform and that
the p;ocu,ss be recognized as being fair.

LOWER RALSTON CREEK NEIGHBORHOOD
PROPERTY ACQUISITION INFORMATIONAL MEETING
NATIONAL GUARD ARMORY
JULY 25, 1979 7:30 P.M.
STAFF PRESENT: Mike Flaherty, Bruce Knight, Jim Hencin, Dennis
Kraft, Kevin Laverty, Larry Chiat and Roger Scholten.
GUEST SPEAKERS: George Nuss, Property Acquisition Specialist from
the Department of Housing and Urban Development; and Norman Bailey,
a local real estate appraiser.
CCN MEMBERS PRESENT: George Swisher and Ronald Johnson.
RESIDENTS PRESENT: Rod Boshart, James Croker, John Gillespie,
Helen Kavanhaugh, Josephine Graham, Clark Jones, Inez Foster, Marie
Alexander, Phil Cary, David Busch, and KCRG News.
1. Bruce Knight introduced the City staff and guest speakers and
then made a presentation on the proposed plans for the Lower
Ralston Creek Neighborhood. The presentation included what
property will be acquired, improvements to the public
right-of-way in the neighborhood, creek improvements, and the
housing programs which will be carried out. He also presented
the tentative time schedule for the Small Cities Project.
2. George Nuss, Property Acquisition Specialist from HUD,
discussed those sections of the Uniform Property Acquisition
and Relocation Act which pertained to property acquisition and
the rights, under law, of those landowners along Ralston Creek
whose property will be acquired.
3. Mike Flaherty spoke on acquisition procedures in the City of
Iowa City. Using a flow chart he described the steps which
would be included in the property acquisition process. These
steps included: the notice of intent to acquire, the
appraisals, the purchase offer, negotiations, possible
rejection and renegotiation, acceptance and closing. If the
offer is not accepted then condemnation would follow.
4. Norman Bailey, a real estate appraiser from Iowa City,
discussed the appraisal process. He first explained what an
appraiser is and what his job entails. He then outlined the
techniques an.appraiser uses to reach an estimated Fair Market
Value for a property. These included: (1) comparable property
sales (which is especially emphasized for residential
property); (2) the income approach, this approach looks at how
much a property earns, and how much the prudent investor would
pay for it; (3) the basic land value approach looks at what the
land itself is worth at its highest and best use; and (4) the
cost approach, which entails the calculation of what it would
cost to build the property today and then deducts depreciation
to reach an estimate (this is seldom used for older buildings).

5. At this point, Mike Flaherty opened the floor for questions
which he either answered, or directed to one of the guest
speakers. Questions and comments brought up included the
following:
-- One resident explained that the piece of property which
he owned was paid for and was perfect for his needs.
However, he felt that its actual fair market value would
not be enough for him to replace it, and therefore he
would lose out on the deal. He then asked the appraiser
if he also felt this was true.
Norman Bailey explained that the problem was the
difference between the value of the property to the owner
and the value on the open market. This difference is not
taken into consideration in the appraisal process.
Mike Flaherty responded that it may be possible to find a
new place at a reasonable price, and that we would assist
him in any way possible. In addition to this it may be
possible to do some negotiation on the price he would
receive for the property.
A question was asked on how the appraisal would take place
in terms of who would determine what the highest and best
i
use of the property is.
Norman Bailey responded that this would be determined by
how the property had been used in the past, and if it
could be turned to another use.
i
-- It was asked if it may be possible that the City would
decide not to acquire all of the land and that only some
1
of the parcels would be acquired.
I I Mike Flaherty responded that if and when the full
application was approved all property listed would be
acquired. The only chance that this might change is if
the environmental review included any new information to
j stop the acquisition of an of
r if the
social impacts were so severe that lthe CityeCouncil or HUD
would stop the project.
-- A resident asked if the City was going to stand behind the
i promises it makes and bargain in good faith.
Mike Flaherty explained that although we were not policy
i makers, we certainly had every intention of being as fair
as possible.
-- It was asked if it would be possible for the current
property owner to get the land back once the improvements
were made.

Mike Flaherty explained that the only way this could be
done under Iowa law was through competitive bidding.
-- A concern was expressed that due to inflation it may not
be possible for the City to complete the Small Cities
project with the money provided if the project becomes
too drawn out.
Mike Flaherty explained that we would work as fast as
possible but that we had to follow certain procedures
under law first.

From: John Hayek, City Attorney
Re: Connor V. Rock Island Railroad, City of Coralville,
City of Iowa City
I am very pleased to report to you the successful conclusion for the above
law suit in Johnson County District Court. This case involved a claim
against the City of Iowa City by plaintiffs for over $500,000 damages
resulting from a railroad crossing accident at the Camp Cardinal Road -Rock
Island Railroad crossing in June of 1976. In addition to making claim for
damages against the City of Iowa City, plaintiffs claimed damages against
the Rock Island Railroad and the City of Coralville.
' Trial commenced on July 9, 1979. The trial, in which I represented the
City of Iowa City, continued almost without interruption for three weeks.
A jury verdict was returned on Friday last. The jury in its verdict ruled
i in favor of the City of Iowa City and the City of Coralville on all claims
by the plaintiffs in connection with this case. In addition, the jury
returned a very favorable verdict to the Rock Island Railroad. Naturally
I am pleased with this result particularly since the City of Iowa City is
self-insured in this case.
It may well be that plaintiffs will attempt to appeal the jury's decision.
favorable t the
fact the Cityhat the of Iowa City is of greatthis asignificancence a verdict very
� I believe.
I will keep you posted of any further developments in this case.

RALSTON CREEK COORDINATING COMMITTEE
AUGUST 1, 1979
PERSONS IN ATTENDANCE: Charlie Eastham, Maria Ahern, Bruce
Glasgow, Jane Kinney, Audrie Scott, Jim Hall, Lee Vaughan, Dick
Plastino.
The Committee was told that a public information meeting on the
Ralston Creek Watershed Management Plan will be held August 22 at
7:30 P.M. in the City Council Chambers. In order to receive
publicity on this hearing the City Council will be asked to set the
hearing on August 14. This is not a legal requirement but there
will be more publicity. Ed Brinton will go through the blue
Watershed Management Plan report and make people aware of its
contents and also people will make their feelings known on the
general plan.
Jim Hall stated that he hoped the North Branch Detention Structure
would have the topsoil replaced. He noted that Bruce Glasgow had
not replaced the topsoil on the detention structures on the east
side of town and grass was not doing very well in establishing
itself.
The Committee went over the preliminary draft of the North Branch
design outline. There were no comments on the report itself. Bruce
Glasgow stated that somehow a sewer was going to have to be extended
east behind Regina High School to the west end of his property line.
He stated that it would be agreeable if this were done by special
assessment to the upstream property owners.
Audrie Scott commented on'a plan to put HUD housing on Grant Court.
She stated that she thought this would exacerbate the flooding
problem. Plastino commented that some resistance to HUD housing
seems to be based more on the low income aspects of the housing
rather than flood control.
The Committee discussed meeting with Regina High School. It was
decided that a committee composed of Bob Vevera, Jim Hall and Dick
Plastino should meet with Regina High School preferably before

SIDEWALK INSPECTION NOW PART OF BUILDING INSPECTION
July 1979
Effective July 1, inspections for sidewalks were transferred from the Division of
Engineering in the Public Works Department to the Division of Building Inspection in
the Department of Housing and Inspection Services. All public sidewalk inspections,
releases, snow removal and replacement will now be undertaken by the Division of
Building.
Effective immediately, contractors are asked to call the Building Division for Form
Inspection and Sidewalk Release inspections. This is the same procedure as used ni
rough -in and n-aT-fnspectio' ns for building, electrical and plumbing.
Mr. Jerry Denison, a newly hired building inspector, will be responsible for all
sidewalk inspections. Jerry brings to the Department of Housing and Inspection
Services a background of over twenty years of construction knowledge and is very
knowledgable in concrete work. If you have any questions on the City's sidewalk
ordinances you can contact Jerry at the lower level of the Civic Center or by phoning
354-1800, extension 322.
REAL ESTATE SIGNS REVIEWED
This summer the Department of Housing and Inspection Services has experienced an
unusual amount of illegal signs in the City of Iowa City. The sign that is most
often in violation is the for sale sign, the sold sign, and construction signs.
The City of Iowa City not only discovers these violations on routine
investigations but follows through on a citizen complaint basis. Real estate
signs are in violation for one or all of the six following reasons:
I. The sign exceeds six square feet.
2. There is more than one sign on the premises.
3. The sign is closer to the property line than five feet, unless located on
the wall of a building.
4. The sign is higher than four feet above grade.
5. Signs with "Sold" displayed remaining longer than 48 hours after execution
of an offer or a contract of sale.
6. The sign is located in the public right-of-way. (Signs placed on public
property may be confiscated).
We are asking that you help make certain that your staff complys with the sign
ordinance by observing the above mentioned rules and regulations. It will not
only save a phone call or a possible Order of Violation but it will help keep
administrative costs and tax levels at a minimum.
If you should have any questions on any sign regulations we ask that you contact
Woody Kendall at 354-1800, extension 325. His office is in the Iowa City Civic
Center, Division of Building, in the lower level of the Center.

Dear Mr. Meardon:
I am writing in response to your letter dated July 20, 1979, written on
behalf of Old Capitol Hosts, the organization of hotel -motel -restaurant
owners in the area. The issues raised in your letter are addressed in the
order in which they were presented:
1. The hotel development is the second largest development in the long
standing downtown redevelopment plan, and as such is of key
importance to the overall redevelopment effort. While any future
request would be judged on its own merits, given the status of the
redevelopment program, it is unlikely that future developments as
critical as this one will occur in the near future.
I
2,3,4 The City has considered financial feasibility and project
viability as very important criteria in judging all urban
renewal proposals. Toward this end the City has taken several
steps to ensure that proposals received will be most carefully
evaluated. The City again is using the firm of Zuchelli, Hunter
and Associates, which is currently involved in nearly a dozen
hotel developments nationally, to advise and assist the City
during the marketing process. The City Council is considering
an ordinance requiring fees to be paid to the City to cover City
costs involved in the evaluation of a revenue bond issue. The
! City will continue to use the professional services of our
municipal finance consultants, Paul D. Speer and Associates,
and our bond counsel, Messrs. Ahlers, Cooney, Dorweiler,
Haynie, and Smith of Des Moines, Iowa, to assist in the evalua-
tion of the merits of any bond proposal.
5. We are aware that issuing municipal industrial revenue bonds serves
as a financial incentive to the developer directly benefiting from
i! the issue. Because the City believes that escalating construction
costs and high interest are major impediments to this development,
the City is willing to consider such a bond issue. This hotel
j development is of sufficient importance to warrant such action.

The rebidding process proposing the use of revenue bonds must be competi-
tive. The City together with the consultants is evaluating whether the
30 -day requirement set forth in the Code is adequate in this instance.
If, as a result of this evaluation, it is concluded that a longer bidding
period is needed, the longer bidding period will be established.
If you desire to discuss this matter again, please contact me.

Mrs. Della A. Grizel
1530 Sheridan Ave.
Iowa City, Iowa 52240:.
Dear Mrs. Grizel:
This letter is written in reply to your recent correspondence, comments
You made at a recent City Council meeting, and our conversation over the
telephone approximately ten days ago.
In rephy to your letter -of July 10, 1979, the Towncrest bus will be
routed on Seventh Avenue and F Street outbound, and on Muscatine Avenue
inbound. This routing will provide service similar to that which you
suggested; persons living along both F Street and along Muscatine Avenue
will each have service in one direction. The area south of Muscatine
Avenue and west of Seventh Avenue, which has formerly been served by the
Towncrest bus, will now be served by the new Seventh Avenue route. In
spite of the fact that this route will be paired with the Hawkeye route,
it is our feeling that the level
than that of the of service will be equal to or better
Towncrest bus, if only because the degree of rush-hour
overcrowding will be reduced.
In your letter of July 2, 1979, you made two suggestions regarding new
bus routes. Your suggestion that the Towncrest bus operate outbound on
Muscatine Avenue and inbound over its present alignment certainly has
its advantages, but our feeling is that it will be easier to operate if
F Street and Seventh Avenue are run in the outbound direction. Also, as
stated earlier, it is our feeling that the Sheridan Avenue and Rundell
Street area can better be served with a different route. Regarding the
pairing of the Towncrest route with North Dodge, we believe that more
persons will be better served by a route traveling from Towncrest
across the river to the vicinity of University Hospital; this is the
route operated by the City from the time it took over the transit operation
until 1975. Your suggestion for a Seventh Avenue route also has certain
advantages, but due to narrow streets, several difficult corners and the
very large loop it would entail, we feel overall it is less attractive
than the Seventh Avenue route utilizing Summit Street, Sheridan Avenue,
Seventh Avenue and College Street.

In our telephone conversation, I indicated that a map showing all of the
new proposed routes would appear in the Press -Citizen Key Edition, which
would be published at the end of July. We prepared a map, and delivered
it to the Press -Citizen, but due to reproduction problems the newspaper
was unable to print our map. I regret that we were unable to get this
much-needed publicity, but we hope to salvage some value from the map we
produced by reprinting it ourselves and posting it behind the driver's
seat in each of our buses. We are currently in the process of getting
this map reproduced, and as soon as it is returned from the printers we
will have it posted.
At the City Council informal session of June 16, 1979, you expressed
concern over the quality of service that could be provided on the new
Seventh Avenue route, because it was to be paired with the Hawkeye
Route. As you pointed out, the Hawkeye route is a very long one so it
is imperative that we pair it with a very short route. It has always
been paired with the North Dubuque route, but in an effort to use the
buses we have more efficiently, we are proposing to reduce service to
North Dubuque to one trip per hour during mid-day, so we can no longer
operate the Hawkeye-North Dubuque route pair. Of our remaining routes,
the new Seventh Avenue route is by far the shortest, and therefore is
the only logical pairing for the Hawkeye bus. Because the Seventh
Avenue route is so short, it will have a sizable layover in the vicinity
of East College and Summit Streets. This layover should provide enough
slack time so that even during the worst weather the bus will run
reasonably well on schedule.
Responding to your recent letter concerning bus service to Court Street,
between Gilbert and Clinton, let me reiterate the points we discussed
over
the
he
new Sycamore ebus nand the drevised o plan tLakeside o run obus swill es nprovide Court sservice tboth
inbound and outbound along Court Street. These two routes can serve
Court Street and actually shorten their trip time, because the traffic
signals on Burlington Street are bypassed. To serve Court Street with
the Seventh Avenue bus would require the route to be lengthened by two
blocks and would result in coverage by the inbound bus only. We recognize
the need for serving Court Street, but feel it can be done with the
Lakeside and Sycamore buses more efficiently than with the Seventh
Avenue route.
Let me take this opportunity to thank you once again for your interest
in the Iowa City transit system. Even though we do not concur with all

Re: Transit Versus r
Councilers, last month our ridership was up 21% over July of 1978. This
is the largest percentage increase the Transit System has ever exper-
ienced. Based on this trend and our experience of the last several
months, we anticipate that September will be another recordbreaker.
We think we will be able to handle the passengers in September, October
and November with moderate difficulty. When bad weather strikes, as it
did last December, January and February, the Transit System will once
again be stretched to the breaking point.
The purpose of this memo is to make you aware that we will not be able
to carry all of the passengers that want to ride the Transit System this
winter. In past years we have always made little changes in the routes,
added a couple more buses, or in some other manner patched things together.
There are no additional measures available that will quickly increase
our capacity. In the past we have always considered it a right of every
citizen to get a bus ride when they wanted a bus ride. That right will
come to an end this winter.
In the next few months the City and its citizens are going to have to
give serious thought to transportation in Iowa City. The budget decisions
made in the next few months will set the tone for transportation in Iowa
City for many years to come. The staff will present various ideas to
YOU- You will have to make the final decisions on transit and auto
ridership patterns of the future.

a Re: Mrs. Della Grizel's Transit Suggestions
Mrs. Della Grizel has on several occasions put forth suggestions on ways
the transit system could better serve the neighborhood in which she
lives. She has written several letters to the City Council, has spoken
in person at an informal session, and has talked with me over the telephone.
The Transit staff has studied Mrs. Grizel's ideas; our reply to each of
these is contained in a letter dated August 2, 1979, which is attached.
To summarize, we have agreed with her suggestion to route the Towncrest
bus along Seventh Avenue and F Street in one direction and on Muscatine
Avenue in the other. We appreciate her concern over Seventh Avenue bus
being paired with the Hawkeye route, but theresimply is no alternative,
and our feeling is that there will be little inconvenience due to this
arrangement. Regarding Mrs. Grizel's suggestion for a different Seventh
Avenue route, our feeling is that the route she presented is somewhat
.less attractive due to several operational problems. Her suggestion
that the Seventh Avenue bus be operated in.one direction along Court
Street, between Gilbert and Clinton, has also been turned down, because
two buses, the new Sycamore and the revised Lakeside route, are already
scheduled to provide service on this street.
I believe the route and schedule realignments will provide a superior
service to almost all areas of the community; the neighborhood around
Seventh Avenue, Sheridan Avenue and F Street i
new routes are implemented s no exception. When the
and the initial confusion subsides, the area
in which Mrs. Grizel lives will almost certainly have a higher level of
transit service, including greater frequency of service, increased bus
capacity, and improved schedule adherence, than it has at the present
time.

Dear Mrs. Grizel:
This letter is written ih reply to your recent correspondence, comments
i you made at a recent City Council meeting, and our conversation over the
telephone approximately ten days ago.
i
j In reply to your letter of July 10, 1979, the Towncrest,bus will be
routed on Seventh Avenue and F Street outbound, and on Muscatine Avenue
inbound. This routing will provide service similar to that which you
suggested; persons living along both F Street and along Muscatine Avenue
will each have service in one direction. The area south of Muscatine
Avenue and west of Seventh Avenue, which has formerly been served by the
Townc( spiteroftthesfactll nothatWthissroute willhbenpairedewithAthevenue route. In
Hawkeye route,
it is our feeling that the level of service will be equal to or better
than that of the Towncrest bus, if only because the degree of rush-hour
overcrowding will be reduced.
I In your letter of July 2, 1979, you made two suggestions regarding new
bus routes. Your suggestion that the Towncrest bus operate outbound on
Muscatine Avenue and inbound over its present alignment certainly has
j its advantages, but our feeling is that it will be easier to operate if
i F Street and Seventh Avenue are run in the outbound direction. Also, as
stated earlier, it is our feeling that the Sheridan Avenue and Rundell
i Street area can better be served with a different route. Regarding the
Pairing of the Towncrest route with North Dodge, we believe that more
persons will be better served by a route traveling from Towncrest
across the river to the vicinity of University Hospital; this is the
route operated by the City from the time it took over the transit operation
until 1975. Your

In our telephone conversation, I indicated that a map showing all of the
new proposed routes would appear in the Press -Citizen Key Edition, which
would be published at the end of July. We prepared a map, and delivered
it to the Press -Citizen, but due to reproduction problems the newspaper
was unable to print our map. I regret that we were unable to get this
much-needed publicity, but we hope to salvage some value from the map we
produced by reprinting it ourselves and posting it behind the driver's
seat in each of our buses. We are currently in the process of getting
this map reproduced, and as soon as it is returned from the printers we
will have it posted.
At the City Council informal session of June 16, 1979, you expressed
concern over the quality of service that could be provided on the new
Seventh Avenue route, because it was to be paired with the Hawkeye
Route. As you pointed out, the Hawkeye route is a very long one so it
is imperative that we pair it with a very short route. It has always
been paired with the North Dubuque route, but in an effort to use the
buses we have more efficiently, we are proposing to reduce service to
North Dubuque to one trip per hour during mid-day, so we can no longer
i operate the Hawkeye-North Dubuque route pair. Of our remaining routes,
the new Seventh Avenue route is by far the shortest, and therefore is
the only logical pairing for the Hawkeye bus. Because the Seventh
Avenue route is so short, it will have a sizable layover in the vicinity
of East College and Summit Streets. This layover should provide enough
slack time so that even during the worst weather the bus will run
reasonably well on schedule. ,
Responding to your recent letter concerning bus service to Court Street,
i between Gilbert and Clinton, let me reiterate the points we discussed
over the telephone. We do plan to run two buses on Court Street; the
a new Sycamore bus and the revised Lakeside bus will provide service both
inbound and outbound along Court Street. These two routes can serve
Court Street and actually shorten their trip time, because the traffic
signals on Burlington Street are bypassed. To serve Court Street with
the Seventh Avenue bus would require the route to be lengthened by two
blocks and would result in coverage by the inbound bus only. We recognize
the need for serving Court Street, but feel it can be done with the
Lakeside and Sycamore buses more efficiently than with the Seventh
Avenue route.
Let me take this opportunity to thank you once again for your interest
in the Iowa City transit system. Even though we do not concur with all

From: Hugh A. Mose, Transit Manager
Re: Publicity for Transit Route and Schedule Changes
During the past several weeks the Transit staff has spent considerable
time preparing publicity material on the mute and schedule changes to
be implemented August 27. The following list includes some of the means
we are employing to convey the message to the public:
1. In an effort to get as much information to the public as possible,
as quickly as possible, a nap showing all seven new route pairs was
prepared and printed, and copies were posted on each of the City
buses. These maps, unfortunately, are somewhat difficult to read,
and their value in communicating the complexity of the route and
schedule revisions is somewhat limited.
2. Because the maps posted on the buses are so difficult to read, we
are now preparing some larger scale maps for distribution on the
buses prior to the new routes' going.into effect. These maps, each
showing a smaller section of the City, will be available to bus
riders to help show them which of the revised routes will serve
their particular travel needs.
3. We have also contacted all three local radio outlets, and have made
arrangements to purchase radio time in the last two weeks of August.
We expect to advertise the new routes and schedules very inten-
sively, both with paid time and with public service announcements.
4. Immediately before the new mutes go into effect, and during their
first several days of implementation, we will buy large-scale
display ads in both local newspapers, in which we will run maps
showing the new routes. Because so many people are out of tam at
the present time, and the Daily Iowan is not currently being pub-
lished, we will wait until the fourth week of August to employ
newspaper advertising.
5. A revised "Guide to Streets and Public Transportation in Greater
Iowa City", better known as our red -covered City map, has been
prepared by Pat Westercammp of the Planning and Program Development
Department. This map shows all of the new routes, has a narrative
to describe each one individually, and also shows the proposed
downtown transit interchange area. This nap is currently in the
process of being printed and will be available to the public within
the next several weeks.

6. The individual route -pair schedules are currently being prepared by
the graphics staff of the Johnson County Regional Planning Ccmds-
sion. These individual schedules are corpletely revised, not only
to reflect the new routes and schedules, but also to permit easier
readability and some degree of consistency with the schedules of
the two other local transit systems. The various schedules are in
different stages of production; several are ready to go to the
Printers, others are still being drawn up, and work has not begun
yet on several others.
4
The Transit Division is currently doing its utmost to make adequate
Preparations to implement the new routes and schedules on August 27, as
planned. However, the immensity of the task, which includes hiring and
training new drivers, retraining our existing drivers, reeducating our
office staff, revising all of our internal scheduling and bookkeeping
documents, as well as revising all of our maps and schedules, has left
i us with limited time for publicity efforts. Given the time and manpower
available, the best that•can be done, is being done. Still, it is very
likely that when school starts there will be some confusion in the
transit system for several days. Hopefully, after the initial sorting -
out, the operation will return to normalcy, and the end result will be a
more workable transit system that better serves the needs of everyone
involved.

Re: Steve Cook Alley Request C
A few weeks ago a Mr. Steve Cook submitted a tape recording to Council
discussing a problem that he had with a vacated alleyway adjacent to his
property at 218 W. Benton Street. An assignment was given me requesting
additional information on how the problem could be resolved. Attached is
a sketch of the area to which I will refer to in this memo.
Based on our research of the situation, the following factors exist:
1. There are two possibilities for a street to service these areas. A
street could be installed in the vacated right-of-way along the north
edge of the subdivision from Orchard Street. Or, a street could be
installed in the 15 foot vacated right-of-way from Benton Street
north along Mr. Cook's property. The first alternative is not very
practical since it does not provide access to the small parcel
immediately north of Mr. Cook's property. Therefore, it would seem
that if a street were to be considered in this area, it should
originate at Benton Street and continue north.
2. The present status of the vacated alley is that it is owned by the
adjacent property owners. In order to attempt this project, it would
be necessary to obtain the right-of-way which could involve simple
dedication or perhaps condemnation.
3. The original alley was only 15 feet wide, it may therefore•.be
desirable to obtain an additional one to five feet in order to
conform with our present alley standards. Normally, alleys are 20
feet wide and the pavement is built either 16 or 20 feet in width.
4. Assuming that the alley would be built 15 feet wide, the cost of the
Project would be approximately $25,000 to begin at Benton Street;
continue north to the south boundary of Orchard Court Subdivision;
turn west to the vacated Olive Street right-of-way. The north -south
portion would cost approximately $16,000 while the east -west portion
would cost approximately $9,000.
5. There would appear to be approximately six property owners involved
in the project of this nature. At this particular time only Mr. Cook
has voiced an opinion about the matter.
6. There could be some difficulties with the east -west portion of this
alley since some of the homes are built fairly close to where the
pavement would have to be installed.

My staff and I have spent several hours on this project to bring it to this
point. Frankly, I have been reluctant to spend further time on it because
of the many negative factors listed above. It is my recommendation that
Council suggest to Mr. Cook that he obtain a petition containing the
signatures of at least 75 percent of the front footage effected by this
project indicating their interest in it. The properties that are
immediately adjacent to and east of the north -south portion of this alley
would have very little benefit if any since their frontage is on Orchard
Street to the east. Also, the new subdivision called Orchard Court that
lies immediately north of this subdivision has a street system of its own
and would also derive no direct benefit to the project. Therefore, at
least 50 percent of the adjacent property owners would have to be
extremely generous to pay for this project or in the alternative, the City
would wind up picking up the cost.
Mr. Cook has offered to pay 25 percent of the cost of this project.
However, I believe it will be very difficult to secure any other private
commitment for the project. Until the adjacent property owners can be
encouraged to pay for the project themselves, I don't believe the City of
Iowa City should become involved with it. For the record, it would appear
that Mr. Cook purchased this property in October of 1978. I should think
that he would have been aware of this situation upon purchasing the
property and should not expect the City to resolve the problem without a
clear majority of citizen support.

Dear Gene:
It is my understanding that the City Council has referred to
you a matter involving Steve Cook's property at 218 W. Benton
Street and more particularly an easement over the east 17.5 feet
of his property which apparently serves several houses to the
rear of his property which do not border on any City street.
1 j
I have the abstract of this property and can pretty well show
you when the easement arose and what the conditions are. This
involves some of the Max Yocum deals in the late 1950's and
early 1960's and I believe, involved the moving of houses
onto this area to the rear of the properties fronting on the
north side of West Benton Street.
I will be happy to cooperate with you in any report that you
i
or your staff are preparing as to the problem in this area.
Mr. Cook has related to me that the easement is becoming
a nuisance and that there are no apparent attempts being
made to put a street into these properties from Orchard Street
to serve them. It is his belief that this could be done.
Thank you for your courtesy and consideration in this matter.
Very truly yours,

Re: Investigation f ffic Signal at Iowa and Gilbert
Last fall the Council received a letter from Mr. Harold Bechtoldt in
which he commented on a recent car/pedestrian accident at Gilbert and
Iowa and requested a traffic signal be considered for this intersection.
At that time Public Works hoped to do a traffic study of this inter-
section and present recommendations to Council in November or December.
In December it became apparent we would not be able to complete the
study on time and it was rescheduled for June or July, 1979. The study
has been completed.
In broad terms we find that Gilbert has a high volume of traffic (9,000
plus or minus) while Iowa Avenue has a low volume of traffic (3,000 plus
or minus). The startling thing is the high number of pedestrians. In
a typical morning hour there 125 to 150 people crossing Gilbert Street
at Iowa Avenue. Now the dilemma.
The easiest thing to do is install a traffic signal. Unfortunately Iowa
City does not have that gasoline tax fund that it had in previous
years. Many other cities have faced this problem and it became impos-
sible to decide when to install a signal or when not to install a signal
Thus were born the infamous "traffic signal warrants". A warrant is
just a measure of how many cars and pedestrians there are at an inter-
section. Cities and states have agreed on when a signal should be
installed based on the number of cars and pedestrians. Based on these
warrants the intersection of Iowa and Gilbert would not justify a
traffic signal but the numbers are starting to edge up so a signal could
be considered either if (1) plenty of money is available so that cost is
no consideration, or (2) it can be justified on the fact that traffic
and pedestrian volumes during the school year are higher than those in
the summer.
My recommendation is as follows:
1. Go ahead and consider a traffic signal as part of the FY81 Capital
Improvement Program. This means the project will be carried on
paper for the next couple of months while Council is matching money
against projects.
2. We will do some spot pedestrian and automobile counts so that we
can determine how much greater school semester volumes are than the
counts taken in summer. We will not have to do all of the count

again but we can get enough account to develop a trend. By the
time Council has determined how tight the money is we will be able
to tell Council how critical the situation at Iowa and Gilbert is.
As always Council is not to be envied in a decision like this. Human
lives are at stake at this intersection but money not spent at this
intersection will be spent on other traffic improvements where lives and
property is also at stake such as Benton and Riverside. I believe by
not discarding the project at this point and getting a little more
information the Council will be in a better position to match the money
against the needs in two to three months.

We have completed our review of Preliminary Site Report #13 on the

We do not feel this site is acceptable for the following reasons:
I. Site has excessive slopes and long, narrow configuration.
Cost of development is considered to be excessive for
Public housing use.
2. We do note, that this site report places all 48 units
proposed for the entire project on this one site. while
this is likely to minimize public opposition and any
imagined negative effects on established neighborhoods,
given the site's encirclement by cometary lands, land unlikely
to be developed, and a funeral home, we feel it is contrary
to the principal of scattered sites. The potential exists
for from 104 to 188 children to be housed in the units
Proposed. Such a population should be dispersed over a
wider area in order to minimize problems once the manage-

Pentacrest Garden Apartments
This memorandum is in response to the department referral dated July 30,
1979 concerning the tree planting progress and unfinished pavement for the
Pentacrest Garden Apartments.
As a result of an inspection conducted August 6, 1979 it was found that
all paving is complete including handicapped accesses and all parking
approaches. A certificate of occupancy has been issued for the complex.
The entire tree planting schedule has been complied with except for about
six to eight plantings on the east side of the complex between the
Pentacrest Garden Apartments and the new Perpetual Savings and Loan
building. The contractor for Perpetual Savings and Loan has asked Mr.
Clark not to put in the plantings until they can erect a retaining wall
for the Perpetual building. Mr. Clark agreed to withhold the plantings to
prevent construction damage to the trees and inconvenience to the
Perpetual contractor. . Mr. Clark has assured me that as soon as the
retaining wall is in these six or eight plantings will be put in the
ground and the entire project will be complete.
If you should have any further questions or comments concerning this
project, please do not hesitate to talk with me. Thank you very much.

on Broadway Avenue does not have to comply with the Iowa City Tree
Ordinance. As you are aware the Iowa City Tree Ordinance took effect on
November 16, 1976. The Wedgewood complex went through the large scale
residential development process. The final and preliminary plats for that
development were approved on February 16, 1976. Because this development
was approved nine months prior to the effect of the Tree Ordinance, the

CITY OF IOWA CITY REPORT FOR JULY
WILLOW CREEK NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER, INC.
July has been a hot month of activities at the Center. We have had
both an afternoon and morning program. Our morning planned program
begins at 10:30. This includes tennis lessons at West High School,
(average 10) story time (average 6) kickball (average 15) and various
arts and crafts (average 10) besides the regular drop-in t ime.
The number one afternoon attraction this month has been the
skating day at Skateland in Coralville. This event was made possible
through HACAP. Over 35 energy filled children embarked on the arena
with shouts of laughter. Other fun filled trips have included the
Hoover museum in West Branchp Willow Creek Park, McBride Museum
in Iowa City. The average attendance for these trips is around
30 children. Christ the King Lutheran Church sponsored a three
day camp out at Camp IO -DIS -E -CA. This proved to be a wonderful
trip of fellowship and sharing.
The Center has had a lot of emphasis on physical activities
this summer. Wednesday remains as the popular swimming day at recreation
pool. This summer we have had a volunteer swimming instructor.
Water games have also helped cool everyone down. Foosball
has been an ever popular game. Because of its popularity, a
foosball tournament was held. The foosball table was moved
outdoor to give our 16 contestants more elbow room. Softball
gapes average around 20-25 children weekly.
A highlight of the summer has been the participation of
several teenagers in the planning and helping with activities.

To keep with the centers concept or working with aLL age groups,
a Friday morning womens group was formed. This group meets weekly
at 10:00 with an average of 5 residents. Last week the group did
their planning for future meetings. The senior citizens have remained
involved in the center too. Last week we went to MacDonalds for
sandwiches and then the dairy queen for ice cream. This meeting
was also a planning time for the month of August.
The Teen Club held a Mexican dinner as a fund raising project.
$41. was raised which allowed the teen club to go to Godfathers
Pizza and a movie.
The Mark N gardens have been not only beautiful# but productive
this year. They have been a source of bringing people together.
During the months of June and July the center appeared as

City of Iowa City, 410 E. Washington, Iowa City, IA 52240 (319) 354-1800
Vol. 2, No. 6 Paul Glaves, Development Coordinator
Linda Schreiber, Editor
Recently, the following ad appeared on the door of the Development Coordinator, Paul
Glaves.
FOR SALE:
One city block. Prime location. New public grounds abut property.
Close proximity to new library. Near major arterial trafficway,
connected to interstate highway system. Parking terms arranged.
Excellent site for a major development. Municipal financing available.
Interested persons call City Hall, 354-1800, extension 335.
The ad was the result of City Council action which approved rebidding the hotel site by
releasing the Dey Building Corporation as designated developer for the project. This
action followed Dey Building Corporation's request that the City issue revenue bonds to
help finance the project. City Manager Neal Berlin and Development Coordinator Paul
Glaves felt revenue bonds could not be issued without rebidding the entire project
because bonding would be a change from the conditions of the original competitive
bidding.
The Urban Revitalization bill passed by thI
urban renewal redevelopment projects to bE
sold by cities are paid off only with Income
are not an obligation of the City.
Legislature during the last session permits
financed with municipal bonds. The bonds
generated from the facilities they build and
The staff is now preparing the marketing document to place the land back on the
market. The documents will be reviewed by City staff and Don Zuchelli, the consultant
who helped market all of the City's urban renewal land two years ago. The new plan
calls for a minimum of 125 rooms and a 3 story structure. The original prospectus
called for 80 rooms and a 2 story minimum.
Anyone interested in receiving documents to prepare a proposal may contact the
Development Office so that the information can be mailed as soon as it becomes
available.
NEARING COMPLETION
The Mod Pod Realty office building is nearing completion. Wes Fotsch expects to move
into the building at the corner of Dubuque and Burlington Streets in September. His
new facilities will be somewhat larger than the existing offices which are presently
located above the Englert Theatre. Mod Pod's seven member staff will occupy about
one-half of the 6,000 square foot space on the lower and street level of the building.
The remaining space on the first and second floors will be leased as offices. Fotsch's
office will have a touch of his home. Walnut trees grown on a farm belonging to Fotsch
In Johnson County were used to build some of the office furniture in his new location.
SIDEWALK SALE DAYS, the super sale of the year was held July 19. The Chamber of
Commerce helped promote this annual sale which featured summer and closeout Items
and drew hundreds of shoppers to retail stores located in Iowa City. The Sycamore
Mall and 'outlying shopping centers also participated. Sale items offered by the
merchants were not the only feature of the day. The downtown was filled with
activity. The Plaza was filled with music and live broadcasting by local radio stations.
Unusual items were offered for sale. Shoppers could "Invest in a piece of the
downtown" by purchasing a brick for Governor Lucas Square from KRNA. Shoppers
could also register at participating Downtown Association merchants for a Moped
bicycle. In addition, the Chamber sponsored a costume contest for retail employees.
Most of the activities began at 9:00 a.m. and continued throughout the evening hours.

After the hussle of the day was over, many merchants said they experienced a greater
sales volume from this year's sidewalk sale over the previous three years. A few
boasted of a 100% increase over last year's rainy sale day.
Congratulations goes to Ralph Allen, 287 Hawkeye Court, the winner of the drawing for
the Moped.
THANK YOU - LEE STAAK. Staak is the owner of Hardee's Restaurant in Plaza
Centre One. The Hardee employees deserve recognition for their control of the litter
in the downtown. Hardee's employees tour the City Plaza to collect litter two to three
times a day as a part of their daily schedule. Hardee's efforts followed STASH TRASH
weekend (Vol. 2, No. 5) in April. Since then, Staak has received a lot of positive
feedback from other merchants in the area who have seen the Hardee's crew in action.
Staak feels the Plaza won't be nice if it isn't kept clean. During the summer months
the Plaza serves as an extension of his dining room. Staak feels it's his responsibility
to keep the neighborhood picked up. Keep up the good work, Hardee's, it's nice to
have neighbors like you.
SHORT NOTE. This isn't exactly the time of year to worry about winter snow storms.
But if you operate a business located on City Plaza, you won't have to worry about all
of the snow this winter either because the City Park crews are going to be shoveling
snow. Rubber tipped blades and a snow blower will be used to remove snow and
preserve brick work on City Plaza. If snow accumulation is heavy, it will be removed
by City crews.
PLAZA DEDICATION
Donald Kaul, Des Moines Register columnist, has accepted the invitation to be guest of
honor for the grand opening of City Plaza on September 22. The Iowa City/Johnson
County Arts Council and other community groups are planning a week of activities for
September 22-29. More details will follow.

sections for streets, and that storm water facilities be deferred
until one of three listed events occurs. Atty. Haupert advised that
covenants state that resubdivision is not allowed. Alternatives for
provision of storm water management were discussed and will be
discussed again when full Council is present. The question is,
whether or not total storm water management storage should be
provided west of the road. Storage areas will be designated
on the plat as easement areas.
Amendments to Urban Renewal Plan Staff felt it was o.k. to amend the
U. R. pans to Fe consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. P&Z Comm.
said library site retention was consistent with the Comp. Plan, and
retention of Blackhawk Minipark was not consistent with Comp. Plan.

2:00 P.M. Previous Council consensus was to retain the minipark
until the Plaza was completed, & those present did not want to discuss
i the minipark at the public hearing tomorrow night, just the Library
site. Resolution under Item N6 can be amended.
