Firefighters and first place in the team competition went to the i
� Iowa City Public Library (having challenqed the University of Iowa
� Library), thereby ending the long stronqhold af tha Benevolent and
Loyal Order of Pessimiste as the first place team. I might add

Now my favorite repart: There were no injuries. Traffic
control director Pat Hurley assisted by the Iowa City Police
Department, Officers Stika and Sinqleman, the Sheriff's
department and the department reserves once aqain provided
excellent service to the participants. There, were only two (2)
complaints received by the police department. One called in by us
to which Officer Zmmermann responded quickly which involved a
; motorist concerned that a runner could not keep up a 25 mile per
� hour paca on the road thereby fnconveniancinq him and tha other due

Solid Waste Manaaement Issues: Reel 88-61, Side 2
� McUanald noted that CounciTmembers received memos from Councilmember
I Horowitz and City Manager 5teve qtkins in the 11/23 packet, Horowitz
� explained that the State and Federal EPA have set out a hie rarchy; (1)
� Horowitz stated that volume reduction at the source is addressed through
i public education by the media. People often buy toxic or non-
biodegradable products. The second hierarchy is recycling or reusing,
which includes campasting, and can be encouraged by public education and
developing markets. The tM rd hierarthy is waste energy, refuse derived
! fuel production. The fourth hierarchy is combustion of refuse for volume
� reduction. The fifth hierarchy ;s mono-fill landfills. Norawitz stressed
� that hierarchy should be considered in terms of its impact on iowa Ci�y.
Horawitz stated that fowa City is responding to the Department of Natural
Resources and stated that a consultant has been hired by the East Central
Iowa Cauncil of Governments. Plans are to have thrae oDtions from the
consultant 1n about s1M months. Horawitz stated that sh� will continue to
provide information to Councilmembers.
Atklns stated he would like to develop a landfill uaaqs ayra�ment wlth all
users of tne landfill, Atki ns stated currently the n are eppraxlmately
150 business end governmcntal agenctes that have charqo accounts at the
landfill. The ap ntm�nt would outlina landfill haur�, toats, policies,
and what would be uupt�d �nd rejected. Atklns atated Iowe City landf111
costs are currantly nur tA• lowest in the steta end tho+• eosts are goi�g

Ambrisco stated that last summer, an incorrect rumor circulated about
kitchen appliances no longer being legally recycled , Ambrisco added that
more restrictive rules �Quld result in more raadside trash. Atkins stated
that one day each week a City crew collects irresponsibly dumped garbage.
Horowitz said positi�e incentives must exist far cooperation. Atkins
noted the importance of letting legislators know about unique problems
such as the University's medical waste and its need for an incinerator.
Horowitz said the University is asking for pu6lic response to site
selection for an incinerator. Atkins said that someone in Public Works
discavered that many businesses that used to accept waste automobile oil
na longer do so. Atkins proposed establishing a waste oil reclamation
point at the Public Works yard. Horawitz said that she has received
requests for a glass recycling paint far non-refundable bottles.
M:Donald directed Atkins to proceed with necessary �ontractual agreements
for the landfill and estahlishment of a waste ail reclamation shed.

that in the min utes of the Riverfront Commi ssion meeting of Octoter

discussed. Balmer said that the City Council should inform the
Riverfrant Commission about the difficulty of obtaining access.
Atkins noted that a strip of land owned by Sauthgate Development on
the Hest side of the River might be an access route. Atkins said
that unt11 EPA test results are done on posai 61e lPakage from the old

the transformer could be recessed somewhat and that the top would be below
the trees in the planter.
Haupert pointed out that the Director of Parks and Recreation was opposed
to the above ground transformer, as noted in his memo of November 8.
Sinek noted that there is no transformer on that street above ground now,
and a precedent should not be set for further down the street east of
Dubuque if a request is made later for one there. Novick asked lowa-
Illinois representatives about further transformers, specifically would
there be a transformer on Washington between Dubuque and Linn. Ken Taube
said one was not planned there at tC�is time. Jeff Duffy said that the 100
block is unique in that 9t is a"blind alley" block while others have
through alleys; he said Iawa-lllinois prefers locations behind buildings.
Hoogervierf added that, as now planned, this Nould be the last above ground
transformer in the downtown area.
Guests present were given an opportunfty to comment on the revlsed plan
for placer��nt af the transformer. Ginsberg asked that the transformer be
put underground to maintain the integrlty of both the block and the entire
Lity. Ne said this would imProve rather than deteriorate the aesthetics
of the City. Murphy and Fink individually expressed their preference to
have the transformer submerged. Lenz noted the transformer would be right
in front af Art World, and he would like tAe planter to continue just es a
greenxpate without the transformer.
Duffy s�1d that Iowa•Illinois does need to provide for future servfco to
bustnesses expanding 1n the block, He satd the transformer cauld be
ptaced in Lhe center of the lsland wlth plantings tn front of the doors.
Taube �greed that the transformar could bQ placed anywhere wlthin th�
planter end with tlmber ar othcr lendsctpinq if desirad.

Jones asked how the building of the new bridge would affect the right-of-
way approaches. Myers said part of the existing right-of-way would be
used to build the approaches to the new bridge. Stroh asked if a single
construction contract would be used for the canstruction of the new bridge
and the removal of the old bridge. Myers said he could not answer the
questinn as the maney had not been of`icially appropriated. Stroh asked
about the timing for constructian of the new bridge. Myers said next
Spring if the maney is appropriated. It would take approximately a year
and a half to build.
�ones noted the need to provide recreatianal access on that part of the
river. Myers said he would not argue the need for such access, but noted
that the Conservation Board is tht County arm to take care of that. If
the Canservation Board felt a new river access site could be maintained,
MYers said he doubted such a proposal would be defeated. Stroh said he
thought the majority of the Commission would suppart Myers doing anything
he could to influence the Conservation Board to be more oriented toward
ttie Caunty as a whole, and to develop more and better maintenance of
recreational areas in the County.
Stroh asked if the lssue of supports for the new bridge versus supports
for the old bridge was a valid engineering concern. Myers said there was
evidence that more piers (i.e. bridge supports! would create more scouring
of the riverbank. Myers noted that the maln reasoo the Board of
Supervisors does nol want to preserve the old bridge 1s because of
potentiaily increased ltab111ty. lovell asked if the Conservation Board
supported preservation of the bridge, would the County be wiliing to pick
up the cost of additional liability insurance. Myers said he d1d not
think there was one vota for it, presently, He also noteE that the idea
of maintatning an access area might be a lot easier to sell than
maintaining the old brld9e.
With regard to the enqtneering deslgn of the new bridg�, Stroh asked if
there were any klnd of a barrler included tn the datigfl that would

DISCUSSION OF MYEP CREEK AND RIVERBANK CLEANUP PROJECT:
Peg McElroy from the Mayor's Youth Employment Program was present to
update the Commission on the work of the River and Creek Cleanup
Committee. She noted that MYEP did not get funding through the Community
Oevelopment Block Grant program, but the City Manager and Council were
willing to fund river cleanup projects from other sources. This would
mean that river cleanup profects wauld not be subject to CDBG
restrictions. McElroy said she would like to come up with some definite
plans for evaluation and approval by the Commission and City Council, and
be ready to begin work next June,
McElroy pointed out that thus far the Committee had focused on possible
projects in the Sturgis Fer•ry area and the embankment south of the
Burlington Street Bridge. Regarding the Burlington Bridge area, she noted
there was strang interest in providing access down to the river from the
west side.
Lovell asked if the Commission cnuld recommend that MYEP work on the
Parcel of riverfront land between Harrison, Prentiss and Front streets
known as "no man's land," given Jones' statement that no one had ever paid
taxes on the land, Jones said he would advocate going ahead with a
cleanup project at this site because it represents the last potential
toehold of public lan0 the City has on the riverbank and the City needs to
stake a claim there.
Regarding the riverbank near the University Student Un1on, Jones said this
used to be a more accessible part af the riverfront and pointed out that
1t is now difflcult to get down to the river beuuse of roughly piled
riprap, He suggested someone could lay the stonas down parallel and
level, thereby creatiny a stairway rather than a birrter down to the
river. Jones said thls w�s � project whlch MYEP could potentially take up
with the University,

Regarding the old Rock Island railroad bridge, Neubauer said this was
another popular spot where parking accessibility was practically nil. He
said this area needed only five or six parking places for fishermen which
could be created by grading the east bank of the river. Stroh asked
Neubauer what specific improvements of tfie west riverbank he would
recommend. Neubauer said bank cleanup would be one project. qnother
issue needing attentian on the west bank was the provision of parking.
McElray said her majar concern was to have six full weeks of pro�ects for
MYEP people to work on. She said they would consider projects on both the
east and west banks of the river, including the Sturgis Ferry area.
�ovell said she felt the west bank should be a strong priority for work by
MYEP. Jones noted the problem with the west bank is that it is University
property. Conversely, most of the east bank lies on City-owned property.
Stroh pointed out the University is not in the business of providing
parking places to flshermen. He said any additional parking spaces
provided near Prentiss Street would be filled up by public plant employees
very quickly. The Cammission members agreed that McElroy should proceed
to work with the Comnittee to formulate river cleanup projects far the
summer of 1989.
Lovell noted that Hachal had said he would be willing to serve as
Commission Chairperson and that Jones and Bruner were both willing to
serve as Vice-Chairperson.

public. Access south of the Highway 6 Bridge would be nearly impossible
to obtain because most of the land there is owned by the Iawa Department
of Transportation.
Motion: Stroh moved to table all further discussion of fishing access on
the Iowa River near Nighway 6. 0'Brien seconded. The motion carried
unanimouslv.
FY89 PIANNED ACTIVITIES:
Rockwell said she would call Commission members to determine who wants to
work on which activities and then mail out the completed list,
�)PDATE ne COMMiSSION ACTiVIT(ES:
Rockwell thanked Jones for his wark in expressing the Commission's
positions at recent Planning and Zaning Commission meetin9s. Jones noted
that the Planning and Zoning Commission had decided to hold a joint public
hearing with the Riverfront Commission on February 19, to discuss the
River Corrldar Overlay 2one Amendment. He said the Sauthgate Development
Corp. had strongly objected to the amendment anA claimed it would be a
"taking" of their land. They had displayed a site plan for co�renercial
condominiums which showed a setback of 30 feet from the floodway
encroachment line. Jones also stated there were several questions raised
about the slte plan and where the floodway encroachment line actually ran
through that property,
Jones said he thaught the publtc hearing was a gaod idea beause it would
ensure that every rlverfrant property owner would receive a mailing
informing him/her of the Droposed zone amendment. Jones s�id this would
be an opportunity to put forth positions concerning the praposed setback.
Jones suggested getting th� Dress.r.itizen to feature a serios of �rticles
abaut rlver developmant Ictuas 1n Iowa City. He encouraged the Commission
to take advantage of thit opportunity by mobilizing the publlt to support

the current platting of the subdivision. Wood indicated that the
subdivision platting had to be brought into compliance with the
applicable zoning regulations.
Franklin pointed out th at the enforcement of the requirement to
chipseal Hanks Drive would be triggered by the request for a building
permit. She speculated that since the su6division was already
develope6, the improvement would not be required immediately,
William Terry, 4042 Rochester, stated that he agreed with Don Wood's

to pay for the lmprovement of streets that were eventually annexed.
However, he rent on to point out that this existing subdivision is
different from m a�tirely new subdivlslon concerning paving
requirements, Clark s�1d that since the are� will be an�exed in the

Lawrence Hill , 6 Neather Circle, stated he was opposed for the
already-mentioned reasons and wished to add his support for those
opposing this rezoning.
Bill Frantz, developer, stated that the reason for the condominium
approach is that there 1s a demand fram people who do not want to be
concerned with lawn care and other maintenance duties associated with
traditianal single-family housing. He stated that there are
association regulatians concerning the rental of condo units.
Marcie Roggow, 321 McLean Street, stated that she was the person who
wrote the letter informing the residents of the rezoning and that at
the time she wrote the letter she was under the impressian that there
was enough square feet for eight units and that no zoning change
would be needed. Roggow noted that at the neighborhood meetln9 the
mistake was noticed and apolagized for . Raggow continued and
revlewed the pertinent details of the proposed development including
the relevant lot size regulations, integration wlth existing
neighborhaods, traffic flows, market demands for condas and
condominium association regulations eoneerning rental units. Ro99ow
noted that she hand delivered the notices of the project and did not
intend in any manner to deceive area residents. Ro9gaw noted that
the �ssociation rules do not allow renting of units; however, at some
point, the associatlon members could vote to c:hange that regulatlon.
Rogyow coneluded by saying that a changa i n the cando regulations is
unllkoly b�cause considering the ifivastmer+t value, the rents ch�rged
for thos� units in question would b� prohibitive.
Patricl• PeYton, 2212 Calfforni� Avenue, stated that sh� w�s

Darrel Courtney, 1 Princeton Court, stated that the letter was ��
error but did not feel that it was done in malice. Courtney
continued and said there does not necessarily have to be a transition
in this area as there are other areas in Iowa City without transition
zones. Courtney continued and stated he wa.s concerned about the
notification procedure in regard to it not being adequate in thjs
case. Courtney concluded by saying he does not have as �z���h of a
problem with one building and four units and has no prablem with the
deslgn, but stated that a rezoning is not fair in this case as there
are people who are still building homes in this area who anticipated
RS-5, single family residential, for the area.
Scott noted that people within 600 feet were sent a lett:er from
Marcie Roggow while people within 200 feet received a letter from the
City which said it was a rezoning.
Bill Happel, 510 South Clinton, apologized if the letter the

storm. Having access to current weather information is essential for a
successful snaw and ice control operation. The Streets Division Superin-
tendent and his assistant monitor the National Weather Service Forecast
from Des Moines, Iowa, thraugh statian WXL 61 in Cedar Rapids. This is a
continuous broadcast station received on two portable 20-channel scanner
radios owned by the Streets Division_ Additional channels programmed on
these scanners enable the Police, County and State frequencies to be heard
for local road condition problems as they occur. The temperature at the
time of a storm will also affect snow and ice control operations. Snow
falling on a warm pavement may disappear with little effort. A moderate
storm coupled with a prolonged sub-freezing period will greatly increase
the required snaw and ice removal effort. The type of snow will also have
an effect on the snow removal effart. Light, dry snow handles more easily
than wet snow. For periods other than normal working haurs, the Police
Department monitors the effects af a storm on city streets and notifies
Lhe Streets Division if action appears to be required.
Snowolowina
Snowplowing begins when thera 1� an accumulation of three inches or more
of f�ow on the streets and more 1s axpected. Streets are plowed in order
of priority and after all etreeta in a given prlority are deemed to be in
en esceptable driving condltlan by the Streets Superintendent, snawplowing

Said tract will hereinafter be refarred to as the
"Proposed RDP Tract."
D. The City�s 1978 Comprehensive Plan as modified by the
1983 Comprehensive Plan Update (together, the "Comprehensive
Plan") seta forth the City�s policies for land use and
development.
E. The proposed RDP Tract in the 197g Comprehensive Plan
cras designated ORP, Office and Research park Zone, and in the
1983 modification, was designated Residential: Two-to-Eight
Dwelling Units per Acre
F. City adopted the RDP Zone clasaifir.ation to incorporate
into the orderly development of City property on a request-by-
request basis certain limited businesses like printing
facilities, conditioned on the approval of development standards
which would achieve high quality development that would be
compatible with natural and man-mada surroundinqs.
G. The proximate location of the proposed RDP Tract to the
interstate system, ite accessibility from a primary arterial
highway, its rugged terrain and environmental Pactora, the
ability of the City to have input into conceptual plana and
standards, which would provida a positive image for City along
this major arterial entryway into Iowa City, Iowa, all make tha
propoeed RDP Trnct attractive and euitable for RDP zoninq.
H. Aiter due de'liberation, the IoWa City Planning nnd
Zoninq Commission recommended that the Comprehansive Plan be
amended to change the claesification of the propoeed RDP Trnct
from Rasidantials Two-to-Eight Owellinq Units per Aaro to
Oftice, Rasaarch nnd Development Center.
i. Aft�r due delibaration, tha IOWA City Planning end
2oninq Commiesion Purther recommended that the proposed RDY Tract

} BACKGAOUND:
The applicant proposes canstruction of a 3,000 square foot pole building to
store equipment which currently is stored outside on the site, To do so,
approval of an amended large scale development plan for the site and of a
special exceptian to expand a public utility will be necessary, The Board
of Adjustment is scheduled to consider the special exception at their
meeting of December 14, 1988. Since Council consideration of this plan may
occur on December 13, if approval of the plan is deemed appropriate, the
Council should make the approval subject to affirmative action by the Board
of Adjustment.
ANALYSIS:
Since the project proposed is to house equipment which is currently stored
on the lot, no increase in activity is anticipated on the site. There are
sufficient parking spaces on the site to meet the requirement for the
existing site development as well as the proposed structure.
Stormwater management will not be necessary since the pole building will not
significantly alter the run-off when compared to the exlsting rock surface.
In all other respects, the proposed pole building is in compliance with the
Zoning Ordinance and the Large Scale Non-Residential Development regula-
tions.
STAFF AECOMMENDATION:
The staff recommends that the amended LSNRD plan for 1630 Lower Muscatine
Road be approved suhject to approval of the public utillty expansion by the
Board of Adjustment.

To Whom It May Concern:
It is the intent of Iowa-Illinois Gas and Electric Company to
construct a storage facility to house our construction equipment.
At the present time, the equipment is stored outside. We have
determined that it would be cost-effective to construct a building
for this purpose.
The building will be loca!ed on the Sowa-Illinols Gas and Electric
Company complex at 1630 Lower Muscatine Road, Iowa City. This
will be a 30x100 foot building located appr.oxlmately one hundred
eighteen feet to the norih of the main buildinq.
We will proceed with the construction of this building as soon
as the neceseacy approvele and permits have been received. It
will take three weeke, from stazt to finish, to comp:E�te the work.
Sincerely,

MEMORANDUM
November 10, 1988
Design Review Comnittee
Patt Cain, Economic �evelopment Coordinator �
Iowa-1111nois Transfarmer Proposal for East Washington Street
In response to the Design Review Committee's recommendation that the pad-
mount transformer proposed to be placed in the sidewalk area in the 100
block of East Hashington Street be installed underground, the Iowa-
Illinois Gas 8 Electrlc Company has submitted a revised proposal. At the
Octoher 17 informal meeting of the City Council, Iowa-I111nois
representatives requested that the pad-mount transformer be placed in the
landscaped island further east on the same block. The City Council
referred this new proposal back to the Lamnittee for comment,
The attached drawings depict transformer placement in the landscaped
island. Iowa-[llinols has agreed to install whatever plantings are
recomn�ended by the C1ty and to pay for the redesign and landscaping. Also
attached are: (1) a memo from the Parks and Recreation Department
Director, who was askod to rev9ew the current propotal; and (2) a memo
from the City Engineer, who responded to the Louncil's request for comment
on the "history of the problem with vaults in the downtown area."
Iowa-Illinois will have a representative present at the Novem6er 17
meeting to discuss the revised proposal.

Washington Street
re. transformer date . November 8, 1988
= met with Terry Robinson and Sheri Thomas to review the
conceptual drawings for the proposed transfo=mer, reque sted
to be located in the planter on washington Street.
� Our preference is not to have another transformer located in
� the downtown area, regardless as to whether or not it is placed
� in the planter. It would be very nice if it could be located
uaderground, or ir. some other inconspicuous area.
=P, however, the decision is made to allow placement in the
planter, we feel it is very important for us to stipulate the
�ariety and number of plantings, when they are planted, what
is needed with respect to soil mix, etc. Also, there are two
Younq trees in this planter which will probably need to be
transplanted if this project is undertaken.
', while I have the opportunity, there is one other concern I would
11ke to mention. These transformers are a target for vandalism,
usually in the form of gtaffiti, m3klnq them even more unattractive.
� It would be nice if Iowa-illinois would �lean and/or paint them
on a regular basis, and as needed.
Thanks for the opportunity to look ae the drawinqs and to provide
input.

RE: Downtown Vaults
The Enqineering Division has received complaints about sidewalk
vaults with regard to congestion and possible danger of falling
in when the vault doors are being used. Occasionally vault doors
require repair and involve staff time notifying and enforcing
compliance.
Under sidewalk vaults also create problems during construction or
reconstruction of storm and sanitary sewers, sidewalk and
pavement etc. in that they are expensive to rebuild and difficult
to impossible to design around, usually requirinq more expensive
options. Water seepage into the vaults is a normal occurrence
after excavation acound a vault.

background the Council regarding the selection process.
Discussion;
On Monday, December Sth, candidates for the Assistant City Attarney
position vacated b,y Richard Boyle were interviewed. Of the 20
applications raceived for that position, only 10 applicants met the
minimum requirements set forth in the job announcement. Six candidates
were chosen from that number for interview. Each candidate was
interviewed first by a panel composed of Planning Commission Chairperson
Tom Scot:, Planning Director pon Schmeiser, and Chief Planner Karin
Franklin, and then by me,
Upon completion of the lnterviews, I met wlth the interview panel to
compare notes concerning the candidates, Our consensus was that Linda
Gent•ry was the most qualifled applltant, particularly in 11ght of her
prior exporienca with the lowa City Legal Depnrtment and her extensive
experience in lillgation with her present emp1oyer, Polk Caunty.
On that basts, it 1s my recommendation �nd roquust that the City Council
approve the appolntment ef linda Gentry ns Asslstnnt City Attorney II, at
an annual selary of 544,000.00, at Grado 11 un4ar the Executive Pay Plan,

Re: Transit lnformation Center Kick-off Celebration
Dear Governor Branstad:
I am writing to invite you to a kick-off celebration in lowa Ci2y of our
new downtown Translt Information Center. This new etectronic center is
slgnificant in several ways. First, it is a new state-of-the-art unit
which effectively and efficiently displays transit information not only on
behalf of Iow� City Transit, but also Coralville Transit, Universlty of
toxa CRMBUS, and Johnson Cour.ty SEATS. Ne believe it to be the first
�pplic�tion of this type in the nation. Secondly, the unit was creatively
funded through a combination of Federal and local dollars, The local
funds were raised by a unique program in Iowa C1ty which voluntarily
allows residents to contribute to the transit system on their water bill
payments. Lasily, but certainly not least, the ieformation center was
manuflctured by the TYL Corpor�tion of toralv111e. Recently you presented
thls Minorlty Buslness Enterprise with the T+ryeted Sma11 Business of the
Year �w�rd. The TYl Corporation is a true suceess story of how a State
EconaAic Developsent Grmt using Lottery funds un be used to help small
buslnesses get thatr faQt on !he ground.

Re: City Sponsored Housing Project
As you will recall we requested your approval to purchase a home at the
corner of First and J Street. This was done so that we may begin develop•
ment of the parcel of land (old City right-of-way) imoediately south as
the location for a single family housing project for low and moderate
income familles. Specifically, the project proposal would accommodate six
new single family residences. !n the next few days you will be receiving
a report prepared by the planning staff concerning housing needs in our
community. The report 1s self-explanatory and basically outlines our
housing needs with respect to individuals and families of low and moderate
incame. Ne expect wide distribution of thit report.
We are identifying our new program initiative as "Housing Opportunities
Made Easier" N1th �n acronym of HOME. We have many details to resolve but
due to the fect that we will be closing on the sale of the home at F1rst

Solid Waste Management
Over the last seyeral months, you have received information concerning our
responsibi1lties with respect to satisfying State and Federal requirements
for solid waste management. As you are aware fram my earlier
correspondence, I have a number of concerns with respect to the State
groundwater protectian law and specifically the ob1{gations that have been
heaped upon local governments, while many other issues such as involvement
of the business community and to an even greater extent the Federal
government, were left unaddressed. In order for us to conduct a solid
waste management program that fulfills State and Federal mandates, I
believe it will be necessary for mare involvement on the part of these
higher governmental authorities if we are to ever effectively satisfy not
only the policy mandates, but improve upon and provide protection to our
environment for the future.
Speciftully �y concerns can be broken down into three areas.
Any revlew literature wou)d indlute th�t thc fedaral Government,
wh11e it t�,poses certain standardt, has not, through its feder�l
laqisl�ttve power, undertaken a sutflcient role to help manage t�e
envlronmont through improved sclenH ftc end technological researth,
I bellova it will be necessary for ih� �e�eral Government to spend
tlm• dlrecting fts effort tow�rd rna�lying scien H fic ond
tecAnoloqlc�l lssues rather than �lmply imposing new diroctives on
loc�l govprnment� with respect ta Aaw we operale our dispos�l
systcros. Lacal gbverii�oenEs sfineiy �e rtet Aave the resourws to
�Mpertment witA such Issues �nd ttlll ba�r the slgnl/lcent fln�ntl�1
buFden for implement�ng 3oltd welte blens.
PAGE 2
2. I believe the Federal Government needs to expand its initiatives in
the area of recycling to improve and expand upon markets for recycled
products. It 9s clear that if we are simply to warehouse source
separated products for which there is no use, we have not conducted
an effective recycling effort. The Federal Government, through its
initiative in the form of economic development grants and aid as well
as thelr own procurement guidelines, need to strengthen recycling
markets.
3. While source reduction programs are being undertaken by State and
local governments, a city has little control over the interstate
movement of products. If we have little control over the products
that come into our comnunity, it is difficult for us to effectively
recycle and provide disposal of these particular 9oods. It is only
the Federal Government that has the authority to mandate the contents
of manufactured products and it is only through their leadership to
establishing packaging standards and in effect removing from the
waste stream those packages and products wh9ch are not recyclable,
biodegradable, or toxic.
Yhile these are large issues, it appears that if we are to conduct an
effective soltd waste management program et the lacal level, greater
lnvolvement by the federal and State governments will be necessary. Until
we find sotutlons to recycled goods and their markets, and until there are
affeeLlva me�ns by which a11 levels of government can fu11y participata,
we may be M�ging � losing battle against enviranmental pollutants.

Re: North Market Square Update
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide you with a brief update as to
plans and progress relative to North Market Square Park.
In early November, Terry Trueblood met with the Preuc9l School building
comnittee to discuss landscaping plans around the perimeter of their new
parking lot. They agreed to �ncur the cost of the landscaping, which will
be done next spring, in compliance with Terry's recommendations.
On November 14, Terry met with the Norace Mann P.T.O. Playground Committee
and the school principal. The nurpose of the meeting was to discuss
development plans fur the park. Earlier they had requested that we delay
the purchase of new equipment (or any other development) until next
spring. Since this park is utilized heavily as a school playground, it is
our intent to r�ork wlth the comnittee and school persannel in order to
initiate improvements appropriate for both school use and the general
public.
Comnittee m�mbera have indicated they w111 be undertaking some fund
raising efforts wlth proceeds going into the park tmprovements.
Unfortunately, it mlqht be necessary ta spend e conslderable amount to
correct some dratnoqa prablems whieh have plaguad tha park for years.
Otherwise, the y�n�r�l �reas beiny reviewed �ra: pround leveling, turf

Re: Immerman Proposal - Underground Parking North Market SGuare
Some time ago you received a copy of a proposal concerning the possible
construction of a underground parking area in the North Market Square
neighborhood. This proposal was submitted with the intent of attempting
to resolve the debate and general neighborhood concern about inadequate
parking due to the Preucil Schaol proposal.
I have reviewed this matter and aside fram the significant financial
consequences, that is, an underground parking structure of 50 spaces would
cost approximately :250,000-E300,000, I do have other concerns about the
proposal.
1. If the City were to embark upan a policy of providing parking in
residential arees at local government expense, we are opening the
local government to significant capital costs, with what I believe to
be no reasonabl� moans of repayment. That is, if we are to provide
publicly-funded parking in residential nelghborhoods, signlficant
financial commttments must be made from City revenues end numerous
new policy dlr�ttivts prov{ded.
2, lt this matter w�n to be pursued, the issue of how io regulate the
parkinp would octur. if we are to provfd� und�rpround parklnp,
someone muet �ssum� th• responslbility for deDt servtc• and opera-

have one parking space, each would be required to pay ;500 per year
simply to retire the debt.
While it would be desirable to be able to satisfy each and every
neighbor's parking concern, the cost of this propcsal, the likely
policy implications with respect to other r.aighborhoads, the likely
overall comnitment on the part of all the taxpayers to finance the
program, make it, in my judgment, impossible to achieve as autlined.

Citisen Proposal for Long-Range Solution of N.2lerket Square
Park Traffic and Parking Problem
The Problem: M old, on-going, and inczeaaiogly difficult problem, ehe eraffic
and parking proble� in the neighbozhood �round North Narket Squere
Pazk, vae recently brought again Defore the city council, vlth e
decislon eatiefactory to e epecific need but vhich left the general
problem unreaolved.
The proposal: As a dedicated.veteran Iowa City munlcipa2 employee and u citizen
oF the area long co�iCted to the velfare and enhancement of ehis
city, I reapectfully aubmit to the Council an imaginative yet
ultimately practical suggestion that upon futher aerious etudy
might prove to be the best long-range eolution to the general
problem.
The concept itself is simple: Bnild an undetgronnd parking garage
undetneeth North Market Square Park.
The Reasoning: 1. I believe it vill take somc major project to relieve the traffic
and parking problem in thet nefghbochood, and an retaining and
enhancing the park itself !s of peremount importence in the
proceas, a high-rise ramp e[cucture !e obviously totaily out of
the queation; ahy not consider eeriously the feaeibility of
going underground, eimilar in concept to the ane in Cedar Raplde,
by Vetetane Auditori�, and thoee !n other cities rrith the aeme
probleme.
2. It vould mean temporary inconvenlence, as vith all euch mejor
project• during conetruction, but !n the long run I believe !t
vould me�n a great number of parking �pecea made available to
the publlc, Lo thoae vho live in the eree as vell es to thoac
vl�iting, a=d it vould mean at the seme time a clear tratfic
patt�rn !n the io�ediate vieinity !f Councii then banned all
pnrkint oa both eide� af the atreot around the perimeter ot eha
p�rk oac• the fac131cy vere open.
' 3. Il Council mandated tTe deeign and con�truccion to be of t1r�t-
clu� Quality, the entlt� pro��et vo�ld v�ry likely beeome a
�ho�rcttt tor thosa other eltias rith �Smiitr problema that had
not y�t eenridered thi� pos�lbilty� 1t rould aleo become an

In any case, ptoper traffic �nd engineeriag �tudies wuld detetmine ehat.
Other Coneiderations: 1. Finencing could be done by iesuing municipal capitalization
bonde; Council has expertiae vithin ita memberehlp to carry
thie out eatiefectorily. Other bondinge have been obtained
for emaller, more lndividualized projects, not directed et
large scele public lmprovement and teviullzation of an
entire neighborhood as ehis ywld be; so thie iseue ehould
be strongly merketable es it vould shw long-term civic
co�ittment tovard continual �3n municipel i�provement,
"an Snveetment in the future".
2• I understand Aorace Hann School hae long hoped for a� ac-
quisltion of the old rlght-ofway that continues northvard
from the east-slde intersection of Fairchild end Johnson,
along the eastern border of the park, for parking use, or
as a connecting delivery access. Council and School Board
can initiate a cooperative arrangement vhereby City and
School District can"share",economically, the eame land:
echool parking above, city garage belov. That right-of-way
could continue all the vay through, betveen the Preucil
Sch�ol and Horace Hann, to Church Sereet, perhape eolving
Aorace Henn's parking prohlem, too.
3. During construction of the garaje, and the coasequent en-
hantement of the►erk, exieting drainage problems oE the
entire park can be corrected ae part of the vhole pro�ect.
Thc land e]ready s�open tovard the veet, tovarE the river;
earth from below cnn be used ro leval the park ebove.
4. The mein dreubacl: to th►. proposal !e the likaly lose ot
eome park treee due to the euttira�ving prace6s. Tl�io voulci
no doubt dieturb some people, but thoee trees lost can be
repleced vith nev plantings.
S�aryt Thi� !� ��erioue propoeal, en imagin�tive but con[ident leap, an ide�

programs use federal funds for housing rehabilitation and neighborhead
improvements which can only be used in designated areas. To become a
designated area, at least 50 percent of the residents in the neighborhood
must have incomes below 80 percent of the median income for [owa City, and
the neighborhood alsa has to need improvement. Values for 80'b of inedian
incomes for [owa City are as follows:
One person per household 519,700

I am writing to you and to other organizations to ask your assistance
i� getting information to studants before the beginning af the Christmas
and New year Holidays. In past years many students have left their
vehicles on city streets while they are out of town for the holiday break
Street storage of vehicles beyond 48 hours is prohibited in Iowa City.
This is enforced in the residential areas in response to complaints.
This results in tha students returning to find their vehicles towed and
a he,FCy charge awaiting them. The City wants to make every effort to
avoid this. We are particularly coneerned about the near north and
near east sides, slnce these are the areas from which we recoiv�d the
most complaints in past years.
Every affort is made at the b�ptnning of each semester to inform students
of the parking regulatlons tn lowa City. However, either tha information
does not reach same students or they choose to take the risk that the
r�qulation will not be enforud. In any event, we w111 �ppr�cl�t� any
�aststance you un provide to info�m the studsnts,

Re: Modification af Allocation Formula far UMTA Section 9 Operating
Assistance
Each year JCCOG receives an amount of Federal transit operating assistance
to be split up between Iowa City Transit, Coralville Transit, and
University af Iowa CAMBUS. In FY89 we received $351,269. This fundinc� is
divided among the three transit systems based on a formula adopted by the
JCCOG Board of Directors. The existing allocation formula of 50°5
operating casts and 50'K locally determined income was adopted in 1982. It
is intended to favor the system which has the highest operating costs and
contributes the most local revenue to transit.
Last Auyust the JCCOG Board approved apportionments for FY89. At that
time concern was expressed by City of Iowa City and City of Coralville
representatives that the CAMBUS share continues to increase annually, at
the expense of Iowa C1ty Transit and Coralville Transit. This has
occurred because CAMBUS has expanded its operations over the past two
years, while Iowa City Transit and Coralville Translt ha•�e reduced
service. The JCCOG Board requested staff prepare a series of alternative
allocation formulas for their consideration.
There is an infinite number of ways the funding could ba divided.
A1location formulas typlcally divlde funds based on same type of
pertormance measure. Four aptions, attached, have been dowloped for
consideratian by the JCCOG Tochnical Advisory Commlttee and Board of
Dir�ctors. It is apparent that th• existing allocation formula fevors the
munlcipal traneit systems, prfmarlly �,ecause of CAM9U5' lawar wapo ac�le
whlch results 1n lower operattnq costs.

At the August 31, 1988 JCCOG Baard of Directors meeting, the Board requested staff
prepare alternatives to the existing allocation formula for UMTA Sectian 9 operating

UMTA operating funds are received in a lump sum by JCCOG and allocated to Coralville,
Iowa City, and CAMBUS. The existing allacatian formula of 50% operating costs and
50'% locally determined income was adopted by the JCCOG Board in 1982. It is intended
to favor the system which has the highest operating costs and contributes the most
�•.local revenue to transit.
1
Because CAMBUS has increased servite and Coralville and Iowa City have reduced
service over the past two years, CAMBUS has received an increased share of our total
UMTA apporttonment. The formula still favors lawa City, hawever, as ICT receives
nearly 60% of the total. FY89 apportionments were as follows:

.�ollowing are four alternative formulas for consideration, and the rational for each.
Also, feel free to bring up your own ideas at the December 5 TAC meeting.
1. Consider; Svstem Effectiveness. The amount of revenue service operated as
measured by (a) total revenue vehicle miles, and (b) total revenue vehicle
hours. This method favors the system that operates mare service as measured by
these factors.

2. Consider: 0 eratin Efficienc . Effi��ency is measured by the cost of
resources used to produce a un t oP transit service. A unit of transit service
can be expressed as a vehicte operated in revenue service for one hour or one
mile. System efficiency can be based on (a) cast per ride, (b) cost per mile,
and (c) cost per hour. This method favors the system that has hiyher overalt
aparating costs and therefore "needs" :nore funding.

.i. Consider: Ridership. Effectiveness as measured by ridership includes the
factors of (a) total ridership, (b) rides per vehicle mile, and (c) rides per

MEMOF�ANDIJM
Date: Oecember 8, 1988
To: City Council
From: Ron 0'Neil, Airport Manager Qo.,
Re: Capi�al Improvement Projects
This memo is to update the Council on the on.^,oing tapital in�provement
projects at the lowa City Municipal Airport. The new boiler project has
been completed. The other projects are scheduled for completian by the
end of next sumner.
1. New boiler - Terminal 8uilding. The old boiler in the Terminal
Build9ng was parZ of the original building equipment installed in the
early 1950s. It had 6een rebuilt at least once and was showing signs
of internal deterioration. The boiler was oversized and inefficient.
The new boiler system was f9nanced in part by the f.nergy Savings
Payback Fund. The installation was completed on November 15, 1988,
2. Precision Approach Path ]ndlcator (PAPI). This navigational aid
system will be installed on Runxay O6/24 next spring. ihe PAPI
system is designed to indlcate to the pilot the correct angle of
descent for the landing approach. This system is similar to one
that is installed on Runway 17/35. The equipment will be installed
and maintained by the FAA. (See attached detail.)
3. The Runway Improvement Pro,�ect 1s on schedule for work to begin next
spring or early summer. The runway wi11 be closed for eiyAt to ten
weeks during constructlon. The engineering flrm of H�R. Green
Company has completed + survey of Runway 11/35 to determtne which
�re�s wi11 need repluing. The fAq is funding 90% of the f313,250
project,

Re: BTC action concerning the process of creating an NPO and
appointing an organizational NPO board to formulate the
permanent non-profit access corporation
At their Novemher 16, 2988 meeting, the BTC discussed the process involved
with creating the new NPO to operate cable Channel 26 and related
facilities and a proposal from the consultant, Sue Buske.
The BTC decided a non-profit access corporation with a Board of Directors
made up of diverse comnunity representatives has the best chance of
success in Iawa City. To begin with an organizational board wi11 be
appointed to formulate the NPO, Later the permanent Board of Directors
will be compased of appointed and elected citizens. Currently,
applications are being taken for the organizatlonal board at the City
Clerk s office. The daadline for applying is December 14, 1988.
The BTC discussed their role and the role the Council might play in the
appointment procese for this arganizational board. The BTC suggested they
be used to screer. and recommend an initial board to the Council and that
Council appoint the Board members. City legal staff has been requested
for an opinion regardfng any problems with this procedura.
Th1s process is part of a nine-month pian outlined by the consultant, At
tha end of this nine-month plan the NPO would become an incorparated
entity ready to take on ths management and aperatinq r�sponsibilities of
Channel 26. Buaka'� proposal includes her charges �s w�li as those that
may be incurred by *he City (such as incorporattnq �nd fil{ng feas,
initial tagai eMpensas for the NPO, atc.). A capy of h.r proposal is
attached.
The BTC was ImDr�s��d with Buske's propoeal end vot�d un�nimou�ly ta
accept it (with St�vent +Gaont) Ae a result, h�r pufd�ntt end aasletence
wi11 be ava11ab1� to the City throu9hout thls lmportant nine-month
process.

Environmental Review of Sewer Project
]t appears that the route of the southeast interceptor is becoming an
environmental issue with respect to the DNR. When the DNR wildlife
biologist was contacted last summer to determine the extent of environmen-
tal impact, his comnents were inconclusive and did not express specific
concerns. Now, in November 1988, the biola3ist has expressed concerns
regarding wetlands in the area. Because of those concerns, we are now
required to contact U.S. Fish h Wildlife Service to determine the extent
of wetland damage and possible mitigation. !f it is determined that
mitigation is required, there will be additional costs. The worst case
scenario is that the sewer yould be re-routed araund the wetla�d. It is
difficult to determfne all of the issues associated wlth this new problem
that could affect our consent decr2e and posslble delay in receiving
federal grant appruvai. The DNR biologist had recommended some fairly
simple mitigation; however, other DNR officlais have ruled he is not
qualitied these recommend�tlons. Our consulting ffrm, Stanley Consul-
tants, has quostianed whether the area does constitute a true wetland and
will be contactSny U.S. fish i W1ldlife Service. And so it goes...

Schmeiser stated the property is located northeast of Eas4dale Mall,
� behind Goodwill Industries and the property is presently zoned 1-].
Schmeiser reported John Moreland, owner of the property, wants to
establish apartments above the ground floor of the building.
; Schmeiser said resldential uses are not permitted in the I-1 zone.
� Schmeiser said the CC-2 zone is consistent with surrounding proper-
ties and the Planning and Zoning Co�rmission will be acting on tMs
request on Thursday. Councilmembers discussed the location of the
property. [n response to HoroNitz, Schmeiser stated Moreland wants
� to establish an office and place apartments above the office use.
Horowitz asked how the property wi11 be accessed. Schmeiser said
access will be through officially approved places that are part of
the Eastdale Mall drlves. Horowitz asked where other residences are
located and how close the property is to a child care facility,
Schmeiser stated there �re no other residences near the proposed use
and it would be located close to a ch11d care facillty, Schmeiser
explalned that restdnnttel use is not permitted until a special
exteption is approved Dy the Board of Adjustment, B�lmer asked how
many units would ba provlded. Schmoiser said four residentfal units

are illegally established. Schmeiser said the City is proposing, at
the request of child care providers, to eliminate the requirement for
child care facilities with six or fewer children or children being
cared for for two hours or less in one day to not come under the
requtrements of the Zoning Ordinance. They would still be considered
home occupations and would need to be meet the requirements of the
Zoning Ordinance for home occupations. Schmeiser said the other
proposed change is to allow hours of operation of home occupations to
begin at 7:00 AM. Schmeiser said a public hearing for the proposed
amendments is scheduled January 10, 1989. Horowitz asked why change
the hours of operation to 7:00 AM and not just delete the provision
for hours of operation. Schmeiser said the regulations apply to home
occupations established within the city, Horowitz said she knows of
a child care facility that has responsibility for children overnight.
Larson asked if a special category for child care should be created.
Horowitz said Council will be confronted wlth the child care issue
again and the subject is being looked at the by the Johnson County
Health Planning Board.
Schmeiser said Roba Car Wash had initially requested to the state
that they sell the right-of-way to the Robo Car Wash to allow for
extension of a parking lot and the City has jurisdiction of the
right-of-way. Schmeiser said staff and the Planning and Zoning
Commission have no problem with vacation of the right-of•way.
Schmeiser presented a drawing of the area. Schmeiser said the City's
vacation of the right-of-way will allow the state to seil the right-
of-way to the Robo Car Wash. Horowitz asked if the state has ever
considered enlarging the right-of-way to rectify traffic problems
associated with the Gilbert Street and Highway 6 intersectfon.
Schmeiser said this property would not help the Gilbert Street-
Hlghway 6 Bypass intersection. Balmer said Hy-Vee owns the other
part of the right-of-way. Norowitz said there is st111 problems on
Giibert Street and Highway 6. In response to Larson, Schmeiser sald
the property would go back on the tax roles.
Schmelser sald this is the f1n�1 consideration of this item.

No Council comment.
Horowitz asked if the starage facility with a concrete base will
displace Water. Schmeiser said the engineering division determines
if stormwater management is required for a particular project.
Horowitz requested staff find out if stormwater mana9ement is needed
for the project. Balmer asked staff to find out where the displaced
water will go. Schmeiser said Council could approve the plan subject
to drainage questions being resolved,
lDOT Transtt Fundina Formula: Reel 88-63, Side 2
� Jeff Davidson stated the federal UMTA transit funding is being discussed
j tani9ht. Oavidson explained every year JLCOG receives an amount of maney
from the federal government to be used to operate ]owa City, Coralville
�and University of Iowa transit systems and in 1982 the JLCOG Board adopted
, a formula for disbursement of those funds based on a performance-based
ifarmula. Davidson said it was considered that the Iowa City and
� Coralville Lransit systems have higher operating expenses than University
I of lowa CAMBUS translt and it was decided to use operating and maintenance
costs together with lacally determined income to establish a formula.
Davidson stated that the funds are approximate disbursements for the
current year are as follows: 60% to Iowa City, 25% to University of Iowa
CAMBUS, and IS% to Coralville. Davidson said in the past coupie of years,
ridership has increased for the Univarsity of Iowa CAMBUS and the formula
has resulted in CAMBUS receiving a larger share of the money. In Auyust,
1988, JCCOG staff was asked to review the formula, Davidson said the
JCCOG Advisory Comnittee reviewed alternative formulas and voted un-
anlmousty to keep the existing formula� Davidson satd that tomorrow
I (12/M) the JCCOG Board Nill be considering the JCCOG Advisory Commlttee
reco�Pn�atton and taking action. Horoxitz inqulred by the multiplier
used tn the formula. Davidson expl�ined Lhe multiplier is the share of
money e�eh transit system receives. Davidson said the factors used �re
attu/l factors from the prevlous year, Horowitz raised concerns that the
percent�y of money received by lowe 61ty would contfnue to be reduced
beuuta of the decltning ridershtp, D�vldsan explilned lowa C1ty'a
ridershlp loss thls year is much less thm 1n the prrvlous year, Ilorowitt
�sked if � formula coutd be devised th+t would be an Incentive Lo lncrease
rider�Alp. Oavidson said ridersMp alone doas not increase the amount of
mon4y �etatved. Larson asked if thero r�s e May to make the formula 4�ko
Inta sccount that CAHBUS does not rhArge , fare an4 cnMnus rtders rtda
short elft�neas. Devidson s�id any faPmuls that would use fare revenue e;
� tutar would be to the detriment of LAHDUS. Councilmembers dfscus�ad
the usa and funding o( CAMBUS, Ambets€o co�mnanted that maybe it SAould be
ratnmmanOeC that LAMBUS service the entir� cammunity. Davldson s�td JCCdG
ft lhR prop�r Porum for diswsslon of bui service wlthln thc communlly.
In retpons• to Baimor, Oavfdson expi�ined thn fedcr�l and statc �estsl�nc•

for CAMBUS is approximately the same percentage as it is for tiie municipal
systems. Ambrisco noted CAMBUS operation has a distinct advantage because
of their lower wage scale. Larson said CAMBUS takes the more premium
routes and people chose to ride CAMBUS because it is free. Ambrisco said
it is ludicrous to have three transit systems within the area. Davidson
explained CAMBUS does not charge a fare because they move large numbers of
people very short dista^ces and the amount of time a bus :�ould have to
stay at a stop to collect a fare would be a detriment to the system.
Davidson said also a security system would be needed if a fare was used.
Courtney asked that the University require some type of student or staff
ID to use the CAMBtlS system.
Davidson said JCCOG does not need to take action on the formula until
August. Hor�witz said JCCOG should consider a formula that wouid be an
incentive to increase ridership. Council directed Davidson to request
that JCCOG defer action on decisions relating to the federal UMTA transit
funding formula.

PLpZp, PWISE 7ii0, LOCATED SWTH OF HI6HYAY 1 MEST AT HUDSON
AVENUE. (5-8422)
Comment; In 1984, Mr. Ken Ranshaw, developer, made
application on behalf af KS&K, owners, for preliminary and
final LSNRD plan approval of a 1.31 acre parcel located
south of Highway 1 West and the present R-Plaza
development. The plan was defeated by the City Council on
October 23, 1984, over concerns regarding compliance of the
airport with FAA standards considering the subject parcel
is located in the airport clear zone for Runway 17. Upon
appeal to District Court, the court ruled in favor of Mr.
Ranshaw, and ordered the City to promptly approve the LSNRD
plan. The Planning and Zoning Comission is expected to
render a recommendation on this request at its December 15,
1988, meetiny. Staff recommends that this request be
approved in a memorandum dated December 8, 1988.

from the City (a BTC representative) and the cable campany. Approved
4-0, with Stevens absent.
Justis continued by laying out a memo sent by Shaffer concerning the
NPO Board of Directors. Justis felt the next step in creating the
initial board is to publicly advertise the NPO Board of Directors
positions in the newspaper. He felt it would be helpful to have
these applications back by the next BTC meeting in December.
The Commission agreed to place a display ad annauncing the NPO
initial board opening in the Iowa City Press-Citizen along with a
mailing to the organizations previously expressing interest in being
on the NPO Board.
Justis also queried whether the Council would like to become more
involved, either by appointment or endorsing an initial board of
directors.
He111ng added that he felt that a person interested in applying for a
position an the NPO Board would appreciate informatlon on the Board
size. This would help them determine an estimated time cornitment.
' Discussion followed by the Commissioners on the selection process.
Justis laid out, as wrltten in the memo fram Shaffer, certain items
that needed to be considered in selecting Board applicants. One
needs to look at targeted organizations suited for the job, skills

CABLE TV BUDGET DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENOATIONS:
Each Commissioner received a copy of the proposed cable TV budget. The
Commission expressed support of the budget submitted by Shaffer, which was
reviewed by the Budget Subcommittee composed of Patton and Stevens.
Shaffer discussed the budget in some detail for the Commission.
Detroit :brought up concerns for the wages of the proposed part-time
employee that would assist Shaffer in NPO management transfer-related
responsibilities. Since this person could be working fairly closely with
the NPO board, it is important enough to be paid to this employee to
ensure that professional talent be hired.
Hall noted that a relatively small amaunt was being spent for travel
expenses to further staff education. He noted the importance of and need
for such funding, especially in view of the change and development in
cable televisian.
Hall moved to accept the cable TV budget with concerns of the wages for
the part-time employee to assist with the NPO and also concern with the
lack of dollars being spent toward updating staff knowledge by travel
expenses. Seconded by Detrait, approved 4-0, with Stevens abse�t.
BTC REPORT:
Shaffer reported several complaints this manth, all in reference to cost
; of rates for CabieW sion. Channel 29 has recently Mred two temporary

wauld provide 59 spaces. Nallace asked whether any units would be
without windows. Moen replied no; each unit would have a deck
recessed five feet from the outside wall. Mike Furman, developer,
indicated that each unit would be provided with three windows.
Larry Svoboda, Route A6, Iowa City, Iowa, stated that he has a
develapment and property east of the proposed high rise development
and is concerned about the proposed development's effect on the
private sewer that connects his property and two adjacent properties
to the sewer line at South Capitol. Svoboda continued and said that
the proposed development would obstruct access to this private sewer
and wants to go on record stating that there needs to be an easement
provided to ensure access to the private sewer line. Svoboda
suggested that the developer pick up the cost of moving the existing
sewer in order to maintain Svoboda't connection with the sewer on
South Capitol. Timmins lndicated that Mr. Svoboda may have prescrip-
tive rights on the land which provides access to the private sewer
and suggested that Mr. Svoboda contact the railroad for additional
easement or petition the City of Iawa Lity to extend the sewer 11ne
on South Clinton to the three property owners currently being served
by the private seaer. Svobada replied that the railroad right-of•way
1s too steep to prcvide access to the private sewer,
Clark suggested that the sewer could be relocated at minimum cost at
the time when the proposed high rise development has the `oundation
excavated. Furman replied that Ae would ba in aqrezment �r ailow the
relocation of the private seNer 11ne rhen t.ney excavated for the hlgh
rlse. Svobada replied that the problem sf access once thc buildfng
fs tonstrueted is still not addressed by the above discussion,
Tlmmins suggested th�t � cast iron se�Ner 11ne be used md that Public
Morks +s well as the City's butlding offtci�ls be appr�lsed of tf�e
work end �ssist in it being completed in a proper ma�ner. furman

Kritz reviewed the staff report dated November 28, 1988.
Clark asked whether the City would place any kind of restrictions on
the development of those lots. Kritz replied that yes, the City
would place design guidelines on homes built on the City owned lots.
Dave Goss, 1322 Secand Avenue, stated that he was concerned about the
offer to abutting property owners fronting Second Avenue to purchase
the portion of the westerly ten faot alley right-of-way. Goss stated
he was concerned about how the situation would be handled if not all
of the four property awners wished to purchase their respective
sections. Goss concluded by saying he was also cancerned about
maintenance of the private access drive in terms of snow removal.
Yallue �oved to approve V-8808, an application to vacate an
uni�proved portion of the forser First Avenue right-of-r�y, an
unicproved �lley between First and Second avenues, and a 175-foot
uniproved alley th�t borders the northern right-of-w�y line of the
Ior� Interstate R�ilway rest of First Avenue. Cook seconded the
■otlon.
Nebert asked about the price of each section of alleyway to �e
offered to the property owners. Kr1tz stated that, while a price has
not been establi:hed, it would not b? a significant amount given the
limited usefulness of the property in question. Clark stated he has
reservatlons about the City being involved in Lhe housing market,
especially when there are strings attached. Clark continued and said
he was also concerned about � single-family home near a railway as
well as the safety of children, considering the property's proximliy
to the railway and busy flrst Avenue. Clark concluded by sayinq Ae
was concerned �bout the Property value being maintained for homes
built near the rail 11ne.

�
convert the second floor of the building into four dwelling units.
Because residential dwellings are not principal uses permitted in the I-1
zone, the applicant requests that the property at 1476 First Avenue be
rezoned from I-1 to CC-2 to permit redevelopment of a partion of the
property for residential purposes. If the property is rezoned to CC-2,
the lower level of the property may continue to be used for a legally
established use allowed in the I-1 zone at the time of rezoning or may be
converted to uses permitted in the CC-2 zone. Uses which are permitted
in the I-1 zane that are not allawed in the CC-2 zone will became legal
nonconforming uses.
N SIS:
The short- and long-range development plans for the C1ty indicate that the
subject parcel is located at the western boundary of an area that is
encouraged to develop for industrial purposes. Land east and souL•h of
this parcel is zoned I-1 and has developed for industrial uses. Land
immediately north and west of this tract is encouraged, on the other hand,
to develop for general commercial uses and is zoned CC-2, consistent with
this land use designation. These tracts have developed for uses allowed
in that zone.
The 1983 Update to the lowa City Comprehensive Plan states that "[t)he
maps presented in the ...Plan outline in a general fashion the location of
dlfferent land uses;.,.the Camprehensive Plan maps...(are to] be
interpreted with flexibility at the boundaries of the designated uses to
allow appropriate transitions between areas." In staff's opinion, the
parcel is in an area of transltion ard rezoning the subject parcel from 1-
1 to CC•2 would be consistent with thls Comprehensive Plan objective.
The property under conslderation does nat possess the charactoristics
generally assoctated with industrial uses such as easy and lmmediate
access to major thoroughfares and the provislon of �ufficient land area to
allow the scale of development typical of industriat uses or to
accomnod�te expenslons. The property at 1416 flrst Avenue is effectively
separated from I•1 zoned land to the east end south by a rallroad spur
that sorvas exi:ting industrial uses, The trect is located on en Interlor
lot �nd ts not directly accesstble !o either H rst Avenue or Lower
Musutin� Rad. tnstead, thts property 1s �cces�ed through commerclal
property, th� ��stdale Mail complex, which fronts on these rights•of•way,
T�� sul• o/ the exlsting bullding on the praperty is comp�tlble with
commerci�l buildfngs in tAe area �nd is orlentod toward surrounding
commerct�l uu �nd away from adjuent 1ndu:trl.1 development. These

Staff recommends that the land use designation of property described in

Commercial and that the request to rezone this property from I-1, General

IVIEMORANDUM
Date: December 8, 1986
To: Planning & Zoning Cammission
From: Barry Beagle, Associate Planner�
Re: S-8422, preliminary & Final LSNRD Plan - R Plaza, Phase Two
In 1984, Mr. Ken Ranshaw, developer, made application on behalf of KS&K,
owners, for a preliminary and final LSNRD plan approval of a 1.31 acre
parcel located south of Highway 1 Nest and the R Plaza development and
known as R Plaza, Phase Two. LSNRD plan approval for the original R Plaza
development was granted in 1983 with the subject parcel designated for
future development. The proposed plan represents the balance of the
development and provides for the construction of three buildings: a 7,920
sq,ft. garage building providing 30-units of warehouse space, a 4,455
sq.ft. warehouse building, and a 7,830 sq.ft. b4tlding providing six small
office spaces with attached warehouse space� For more information, please
refer to the attached staff report dated July 5, 1984, Staff had
recommended to approve the plan subject to submission af a statement of
intent, flnding the plan to be in compliance with the LSNRD regulatians
and appropriate City codes. After a thorough review, the Planning &
2aning Commission similarly recommended the plan be approved on August 2,
1984, The City Council, however, rejected the plan on October 23, 1984,
due to concerns regarding compllance of the airport with Federal Aviation
Administration standards; the subject parcel 1s located in the airport
clear zone for Runway 17,
The dental of the LSNRD plan was appealed to District Court and on
November 21, 1988, the court ruled in favor of Mr. Ranshaw. The court
order requires the City to pramptly aPprove the plan. The plan as
ariglnaily submitted complles wlth the requlrements of the LSNRD
regul�ttrns and other applicable Ctty codes tacluding FAA requirements,
Staff, therefore, recommends the preliminary �nd flnal LSNRD plan for R
Plaz+, Phase Two be approved subject tn the submission of a signed
statement of tntent including ev{dence of awnarshlp, a descriptlon of tho
project, ind the lntended time schedule for �empietfon.

ANALYSIS
The topography is relatively
flat.
The applicant, Ken Ranshaw, is requesting approval of a Large Scale
Non-Residential pevelopment Plan for Phase 2 of R Plaza, The proposed plan
includes a s=r�es of six sma11 office spaces with attached warehouse
space, a 4455 square foot warehouse building and 30 12' X 22' garage
(storage) units. These uses require a total of 34 parking spaces and a
total of 51 parking spaces are provided (not counting the garage units.)
The property is located in the CI-1 zone, and the propased uses conform
with the provisians of that zone.
The praposed development is also lacated in the Airport Overlay Zones,
clear overlay (OCL) zone and the approach averlay (OA) zone. As a result,
the project is subject to the use and height limitations ofi those two
zones. The OCL zone use limitations provide that "No use shall be permit-
ted in which there is connected therewith a building designed according to
the uniform Gujlding code (1979 Edition) with an occupancy rating of 5D
square feet oP floor area per person or less." In additian, twelve
speciflc uses are prohibited in this zone. Both the office and warehouse
uses proposed in Phase 2 of R P1aza confarm to these pravisions (office
space has an occupancy rating or 100 square feet per persan, and warehouse
space has an occupancy rating of 300 square feet per person).
The OA 2one 1s defined as "The land lying under a surface longitudinally
centered an the extended runway centerllne and extending outward and
upNard from ench end of the primary surface." The south property line of
the lot in question is loeated 552 feet north of the end of runway 17.
The epproech surface for this runway extends for a horizontal dlstance of
5000 teet et a siope of 20:1. The heiqht 1lmitation for the praposed de-
velopment ranyes from 26.6 feet at the reer property line to approximatety
38 feet at the edge of the northernmast Cu1ldi�g proposed in Pnase 2.
Butidlnp elevations should be submitted estcbitshinq the heiqht of the
propoted ttructures prior to epprpyei of the LSNRO plen, tn addition the

RE: Regional Solid Waste Study
The East Central Iowa Council of Governments has selected Brice,
Petrides-Donohue and Associates, an engineering firm £rom
Waterloo, Iowa, as its ecnsultant to conduct a compreheasive
regional solid waste planning study to establish the optimum
combination of solid waste management alternatives that will be
technically and environmentally feasible and result in minimal
environmental damage to the region.
The current solid waste disposal practice in all of the six
counties (Tama, Senton, Linn, Jones, Iowa, Johnson) included
within the study area, is landfilling, increasingly stringent
regulations for landfill construction, operation, leachate
monitoring, closure and post closure maintenance, and limitations
on wastes that can be landfilled, necessitate an evaluation of
waste disposal alternatives. The solid waste management options
to be considered in the study include those in the iowa
Department of Natural Resources hierarchy:
1) Waste reduction
2) Recyclinq
3) Energy recovery

4) Ineineration for

TRANSIT [NFORMATiON CFNTER iNSTALLED
Iowa City Transit is excited to announce that a state of the art elec-
tronic information center has been installed in the north lobby of the Old
Capitol Center. The unit, called the Transit Tetly, provides route,
schedule, and much other information on behalf of the area transit
systems. Transit Nanager John Lundell believes that this is the first
such application of this technology in the country. By using a keypad,
the transit patron is able to select the syeclfic route or schedule they
wish to learn more about, The Telly is designed to provide information to
the first-time transit user as well as those who are already famillar wlth
the system,
Lundell indicates that an lnformation center in the downtown transit
tnterchango has lang been � high priorlty for lowa City Tr�nslt. The
Telly displays more inforniitlon in � dynamic f+sM �n th+n tn ordtn�ry
displ�y case of transit acAedules> However, it is much lr.s3 cxpenslve
than 1oc�ting an employee in tht interchange.
Bestdes the transit �ppliution, other aspects of the Te11y make it

purchase the Telly was appropriate since it benefits all users of the
transit sys4em, not just an individual route or bus stop. Lundell
indicated he wanted to take this opportunity to thank all the contributors
to the Aooster Club. He also wants to thank the Old Capitol Center for
allowing the Teliy to be located in the Center. Lundell said he would
welcome any comr.ents or suggestions from users of the Telly.

Coralville, Johnson County Emergenty Services and rural areas. Myers

operators is different than phone conversatians. In response to Horowitz,
Myers said that a new system will not call for fewer personnel. Myers
said the idea for a jaint facility originally came from the Johnson County
Sheriff's Department because they are concerned about coordination of two
or three PSAP. Myers stated that the Iowa City, Coralville, Lone Tree,
North Liberty and all other area emergency volunteer fire departments need
to be considered. Myers noted that savings will not come through less
personnel, but rather through the economy of scale and delivery of service
and the type of hardware used. Myers stated that such systems have worked
in other places.
Johnson County Sheriff Elect Carpenter said that his main concern is that
Johnson County is different from Scott County which has one major city.
He stated the real problem is how the system can work when backups are 20
miles apart rather than three miles apart as in Iowa L'ity. Carpenter
noted that Johnson County currently has two full-time dispatchers on duty
out of a staff of seven. Carpenter stated he would see the need for an
additional two dispatchers on duty if Iowa City is added. Carpenter
stated that it is important that a comnon bond be maintained and that bond
is currently the county jail. Carpenter stated that his primary concern
is taking away from the safety of officers in the service to the people,
In response to Courtney, Carpenter agreed that being on different radio
frequencies is a problem in Johnson County and that it is impossible to
talk between Johnson County and IoNa City patrol cars. Carpenter stated
JoAnson County handles all the cou^Ly comnunications thraugh their
dispatcher, except for (owa City Police and Fire Departmonts. Myers
stated if joint communications is :1ed in with E911, cost of the
contultant could be recovcred from the 25•cent fee. ln response to
Horowitz, Myers said that a state law authorizes a 25-cent charge per
telephone 11ne in a county to pay for the capital costs, ff approved by
votors in a rcgularly scheduled electinn, Myers said a plan must be in
place and the charge for a consultant can also come from the 25-cent fee.
1(yers stated that there are approxim�tely 45,000 phone lines in the
county, excluding the Univarsity. Myars stated negotiatlons are proceed-
ing with the University. Myers stated 1t is felt that the 25•cent fee
would generate more than enough money to cover capltal costs.

Carol Peters noted that the County received a request to pay for repairs
and painting if Iowa City furnished the paint. In response to Atkins,
Peters said the bill was for painting the entire area. Atkins stated that
under the agreement, there is an obligation by the County government to
pay for repair or replacement of furniture, appliances, fixtures or
objects if such repair or replacement results from the negligence, act or
omission by employees or officers. Atkins stated if the repairs in
question are routine, he sees no problem with the City just paying for it.
Ockenfels said that she was particularly think9ng of the painting of the
Congregate Meals kitchen area. Atkins stated that a vandalized spot on
the assembly area floor needs repair. Atkins noied ihe Health Department
said a closet in the Congregate Meals area had to be cleaned. Myers said
that the County, according to the contract, is responsible for 20% of the
repair of the building. Atkins replied that he understands that the
County government pays 20% as a basic policy, but a separate agreement
controls the Congregate Meals program. Sehr suggested that Peters and
Atkins decide how the matter should be resolved. Peters stated there is
also a need for additianal storaye area because the federal government is
now disbursing comnodities on a quarterly basis. Atkins stated the Senior
Center is spacious, but there is very little specific storage area.
Courcilmembers and Board of Supervisors discussed �he aeed for storage.
Atkins stated he will meet with Peters to consider the storage issue.
Ambrisco suggested that staff consider the idea of suspending storage
racks fram the ce111ng.
In response to HoroNitz, Hyers explained Slothower Road is located on the
west side of the County Home and the south part ��f the �oad is vwned 'ny
the County and the north part of the road is owned by the City. Ockenfels
said the County would 11ke the road opened and the City does not want it
opened. McOonald stated the City engineers estimated it would cost
5100,000-f125,000 to make the improvements ta open Slothower Road. Myers
stated that the roeJ just needs a tube and a couple loads of rock.
Councilmembers and Board of Supervisors discussed repair and use of the
road. Sehr sald the County raad crews and area farmers would like to use
the road. Horowtti +sked tf the County could repatr t�e road, then fence
off the road and only allow County emptoyees to use tAe road. Iowa City
Attorney Timmint st�ted 5loihower Road is an 1sol�ted ruad and if the road
1s rot tignlfie�nAly improved, people are bound to g2t stuck. Timnins
ssid Slothower Ro�d could be a prlvate lane the Gity could allow the
�ounty to use, md 1f the County wants to take the r1sk, the City could
draft an agraument. Myers stated thn County could consider establisi�ii�y a
Level B road syttom. Councllmembers and eoard of SuDervisors discussed
the Apr11 1984 City-�dopted resolutlon that does not �llow development in
the �re� for 12 yo�rt. McDonald stateJ lowa Cfty ts nol tn a positton to
spend SI00,000-5120 000 to {mpro�e the ►�uaJ. McDonald said the City could

Landfill U�date:
Horowitz reported that the Technical Advisory Committee of ECICOG has
hired a consultant to look at a six-county area to develop options
regarding management of solid waste. Horowitz cautioned that everyone
will need Lo educate themselves to the potential of solid waste manage-
ment. Ambrisco stated he monitored the University of Iowa public hearing
regarding the incineratar at Oakdale. Horowitz asked if the issue was
raised regarding how there can be a research park located near the
incinerators. Ockenfels said the University of Iowa feels there will be
no problems. Burns said only 1,600 pounds per day will be incinerated.
Myers reporied on the proposed incineration process and said that he would
recartmend the air emitted from the chimney be scrubbed because of the
potential for acid rain. Myers raised concerns regarding the University
of Iowa keeping the County informed about their solid waste management
proposal. Myers stated he has requested the University send project
inspection reports to the County. Councilmembers and Board of Supervisors
discussed the need for information from the University regarding their
incineration plans. Balmer said the University should caordinate the
disposable medical waste from all area hospitals. Myers said there seems
to be a new spirit of cooperation from the University.
Balmer noted appreciation and thanks to Johnsc� County Board of Supervisor
Sehr for his years of service as a Johnson County Board of Supervisor.
Mecting adjourned at 5:15 DN.

said the compromise addresses the imnediate problem regarding the use
of the Northwestern Bell building and the study would address long-
range problems for the area.
Ambrisco volunteered to serve as City Council representative on the
committee to study the issue of whether or not the City should expand
the central business district.
c. Ordinance to amend the high-rise dwelling, arade, and story defini-
tions in the Zoning Ordinance. (first consideration)
d.
Schmeiser noted thEre is a request to waive first consideration.
Strait asked why staff is requesting the expedited action. Schmeiser
explained staff has a request for expedited action from the developer
who wishes to have the ordinance approved before July 1. Strait
asked if staff usually requests the expedited action on behalf of the
developer. Schmeiser stated it is not unusual for staff to request
the expedited action on behalf of the developer. Schmeiser said
staff can obtain a letter from the developer requesting the expedited
action by tomorrow's formal meeting. Larson asked Schmelser to
summartze the eHpected impact and motivation for chahying the
ordinance. Schmeise� explalned when the revision was adoptod in
7985, high-rlse development was halted and high-rise development is
encouraged 1n t�e downtown/University campus area. Schmaiser seid 1n
the goals and polici�s ot the Comprehensive Pian, certein e�aas are
proposed for hlph-rlsa development. Larson requestod backpround

subdivision plat to be redone and it is staff's recommendation to
Council that the action that was taken at Council's last meeting on
the Idyllwild preliminary plat be recons�dered so that both
preliminary and final plat can go back to the Planning and Zoning
Cortmission for consideration. Tirtmins stated that Mr. Glasgow wants
to take preliminary and final plat back to the Planning and Zoning
Comnission and to present the preliminary and final plat to Council
prior to August 10. Tirtmins said the revised plats have already been
presented to the City's Planr.ing Dep�rtment. Schmeiser said the
final plat is before the Planning and Zoning Commission. Strait
asked if Glasgow has proposed to dismiss his lawsuit filed against
the City. Timmins said no. Timmins explained the matter is essen-
tially moot given the objections to the preliminary plat raised by
Council and given the objections raised in the lawsuit to the denial.
Timnins said the June 13, 1988, correspondence received from
Glasgow's attorney make the lawsuit, under its present terms, moot.
Strait said the lawsuit should be dropped befare the Council gives
favorable consideration on the revised plat. Timmins explained that
Glasgow could not prevail on the lawsuit given the new set of
circumstances, Glasgow could sirend the lawsuit if there were a new
set of circumstances, and the City cauld not ask him to dismiss his
lawsuit.
McDonald asked Timnins how Council should proceed. Ti�{ns said the
resolution on the agenda is meaningless becausa Glasgow is revising
the plat to eliminate the objections that wero ldentified. Timmins
recommonded that Council bring the denlal back by a motlon to
reconsider and sond the plAt to the Plannlnq and 2oning Commission
far further conslderation. Timmins said this recommendation is
conslstent wfth what the C1Ly has allowed oth�r developers to do.
Larson steteQ that Glasgow might agree th�L t�• faets and cireum-
stances hev� chanped enough so his orlylna) courst of action would no
longar prev�tl but that he may thlnk h� h+s oth�r reasons, sut� as

In response to Strait, Timnins said that it can be suggested to
Glasgow that Council would feel more confident about their intentions
if the lawsuit were dropped but the City could not insist the lawsuit
be dropped as a condition.
McDonald said the Planning and Zoning Commission is cancerned about
procedures because they have a final plat withaut a preliminary plat.
Ambrisco referred to Asst. City Atty. Boy�e's June 13 memo regarding
Idyllwild Subdivision. Council agreed with Boyle's recomnendation to
take action on a motion to reconsider and refer it back to Planning
and Zoning Comnission. (See continued item e.)
No Council comment.

Larson asked McDonald to explain the action Council will take at Tuesday's
formal Councll meeti�g. McDonald said Cauncil will make a motlon Lo
reconsider the preliminary plat and to refer the preliminary plat back to
the Planning and 2oning Comnisslon. McDonald said the Planning and Zoninp
Commisslon intends to conslder the fi�al plat at their meeting on Thursday
night. Schmeiser said that Atty, Houyhton's letter wa}ved the 45- and 60-

addltlonal flexibllity. Atklns fatd that the potential exists for GlesqoN

Schmeiser stated that this plat, except for a couple of very minor
deficiencies, was ready for Council consideration. Schmeiser noted
that the applicant was present ta answer Council questions. Horowitz
asked if there was going to be anything located where the Mabil
station was. Schmeiser stated that there is nothing shown on the
plan. Horowitz asked if in the future, 5-10 years, something wants
to be put there, if there is enough parking spacc. Schmeiser stated
that they would have to comply with the ordinance. He added that
they currently have excess parking spaces. Horowitz asked whether
Traffic Engineering has looked at the routes from the back where
there will be parking. Schmeiser said that the driveway around the
building is 40} feet wide which the City cansiders more than adequate
for traffic flow.
Horowitz noted the traffic island in front of Walgreen's is heavfly
populated by senior citizens and the access road goes around behind
the Sycamore Mall. The Council viewed a map of the site. Bill
Tucker, manager of Sycamore Mall, said the parking should remain the
sama after remodeling. Horowltz asked Lhat 4he traffic Datterns De
monitored.
Schmeiser stated that there ��e minor revl�lons needed 1n the lepel

"mowable." Schmeiser questioned when the parkways should be accepted
and �n what condition the City should accept them. Schmeiser said
Atty, Sanderson's letter clarifies that it has always been the intent
to offer parkways to the City on the condition the parkways would be
approved so as to be mowable. In response to Courtney, Schmeiser
said the Parks and Recreation Comnission knows the City would have to
mow the retention basins forever upon acceptance of them. Tirtmins
said it is curious the City does not utilize the same mechanisms as
Rochester Place, where the City would impose requirements by a home
owners' assaciation and covenant. In response to Larson, SchReiser
said this was a compromise to accept the stormwater detention basins
for parkland use. Larson asked if the City plans to not accept the
land until the deveiopment is 90% sold. Schmeiser said the decision
needs ta be made by Council. Schmeiser said the applicant has
preferred the City accept the language �n the legal papers as
presented, leaving it to the City's discretion to decide when to
accept the land. Schmeiser said the applicant has agreed to keep
mowing the land until such time the applicant wants te offer the
parkways to the City and the City has the right to accept or not to
accept the parkways. Larson said he does not feel the City is living
up to the ori91na1 intent of the agroement - the City told the
applicant when you dedicate the parkland and you get the development
done, the City will take it over and mow it. Council and staff
dtscussed wfien the parkland should be accepted. Schmeiser suggasted
the subdivider attand Councll's formai meeting to discuss the
nyreement.

Horowitz said when Idyllwild Subdivision was denied by Council,
Council also denied recommendations by the Planning and Zoning
Commission regarding amendments to the Subdivision Regulations to
adopt or require subdividers to place in escrow an amount in cash for
off-site improvements. Council agreed to Horowitz's request to
direct staff to develap a framework where developers could pay their
fair share for off-site improvements. Timnins noted that the Supi•eme
Court has indicated there must be a clear nexus between the develop-
mer,t and the impact it is creating and the exaction or fee the City
wants them to pay.
Strait stated Council received a letter regarding 420 Church Street.
Tirtmins stated an ordinance is being prepared and relates ta a
nuisance regulat!on.

at an informal Council meeting to discuss environmental issues.
Strait asked that Dr. Bovbjerg be considered as a member if an

7. Dickson asked for a status report on the old library. Atkins stated
he had reviewed information six months to a year ago and will prepare
an updated sumnary for Council.
8. Ambrisco stated that local subcontractors have complalned that the
Paul H. Laurente Company is bid peddling. Ambrisco suggested that
tl�e City require general contractors to identify the xubcontractor:
in the bidding process. Atktns noted he has been informed by trade
unions that the Paul H. Laurence Company lntends to sub-out 15� of
Ehe work. Atkins said thet Lhe contrect requlres the Laurence
Company to do 60% of the wark N1th thelr own forces and Stanley

asked if a traffic count has been done and if a traffic study has
been done to determine impact on the traffic flow. Strait suggested
this discussion be held during Council's formal meeting so that
discussion can be seen on cable TV. Atkins said that a pedestrian
walkway could be accommodated and the University has told the City
that they would like Capitol Street closed. Ed Moreno, Assistant
Water Superintendent, stated that part of the reason the University
wants the area vacated is to control the flow of pedestrians across
the area. Larson said a traffic flo� study should be done.
Horowitz asked about fire department service to the area. Donner
stated the flre department reviewed plans and recommended a fire lane
and installation of a sprinkler system in the chemistry building.
Timmins stated a draft of the agreement has been sent to the
University. Timmins sald the sprinkling of the Chemistry Building
anJ the fire lane were conditions to the vacation of the street.
Timmins explained the City has proposed to vacate the street from use
and traffic, retain ownershlp in the C1ty, and allow the University
to make certaln uses of the street by easeoienl. The City would have
ultimate control as a right-of-aay and as a utility carrying cor-
ridor. Timmins referred Councilmembers to a drawing of the proposed
plans.
tain stated the City En9lneer, Water F'lant Manager, Ftre thlof,
Traffic Engineer, and C7ty Managor were cootacted regardin9 the
proposed closing of the street. Larson asked if the street couid

the companies have been contacted, NCS has already hired 100 people, but
only those employees hired after April 12 can be counted towards the IDOT
requirement. Cain said that NCS and RPB are still comfortable with the
employment projections they gave to the City but there are no guarantees.
Horowitz asked it was Cain's interpretation of the request for the
proposal that C:ty has to get th?m 115 employees. Cain said the job
creation requirement is a statewide requirement of all RISE applications
and th� Community Economic and Betterment Act is now also requiring that
jobs that are said to be created or retained must be created retained or
there must be repayment. Horowitz asked if the requirement far the
creation of 115 new jobs was placed on after the City responded to the
original request for proposals. Cain said that was correct. Strait asked
�hat the impact of a layoff riould be. Cain exptained the agreement only
addresses the jobs created. Cain recommended the City quickly certify the
115 new jobs once the jobs have been created. Larson raised concerns that
the IDOT changed R15E requirements after the praposal was submttted.
Davldson said that until the City received the contract one month ago the
City staff did not know the exact language of the contract. Davidson said
1�OT is trying to demonstrate to the legislature that the intent of the
RISE Drogram, to create jobs, is being met. Larson asked if it is Korth
spending f450,000 for the protected economic development benefits.
Davidson said, as planners, staff feels tt is a good investment. Atkins
statod Lhet NCS and RBP have stated that they would not expand unless road
improvemonts are made. Atkins recommendod approval of the project,
McOanald safd City should proceed wtth the project.

understanding that some of the houses are being used as duplexes.
Schmeiser said four of the properties are owner-occupied and only one
of the properties are rented out. In response to Larson, Schmeiser
explained Planning 3 Zoning members voted 4-2 in favor of the request
because there were no objections and because of the commercial
properties located across the street on Lower Muscaiine. Two
Planning & Zoning Commission members that voted against the request
ob3ected because of concerns of spot zoning. Larson asked if area
neighbars have been informed of the request. Schmeiser said signs

Rockwell prpsented Council with an overhead projection map of the area.
Rockwell stated that the Riverfront Commission held a meeting on July 13,
1968, to discuss Glasgow's proposal to place additional fill west of North
Dubuque Street and south of Taft Speedway. Rockwell reviewed information
contained in her July 14, 1988, memo regarding wetland fill south of Taft
, Speedway. Rockwell explained additional information was received from the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; the Corps considers the area forested
wetland; and the Corps did not have jurisdiction over forested wetlands
until February 29, 1986. Rockwell stated the Corps considers that it has
'i no jurisdiction over the area with the existing 30,OOt� cubic feet of fill
, because the f111 was placed prior to February 29, 1988.
Larson asked if the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ar City has the authorlty
to order the fill removed, Rockwell satd the contractor does have
permission from the City Engineer to fill on the propurty. McDonald asked
under what circumstances does the Corps allow Netlands to be filled.
Rockwell said this 1s the first case of a forested wetland to be handled
by the Corps, Ilorowitx stated that she was 1n contect with Corps of
Engincur Nayne Hamnel. Ilorowitz said that every ptece of wetlend has

PROCESS FOR FILLING CITY COUNCIL VACANCY: Reel 88-40, Side 1
IMcDonald explained Council has two options to fill the City Council
, position to be vacated by Kate Dickson: 1) to call for a special
election, or 2) by appointment. McDonald stated he favored appointing
someone to the position because the estimated f10,000-f12,000 cost
associated with holding a special election. Larson noted that anyone can
run for the offi ce and that, with the proper timing, the election could be
held along with t�ie general election in November. larson said he would be
in favor of appointing someone, but with expectation that a petition would
be filed and an election held in November. ln response to McDonald, Karr
stated there are still costs if the election is combined with the general
election. Karr stated that there also Nauld be additional costs if a
i primary election would be required. Horowitz asked if a ballot could be
triggered for the remainder of Dickson's term plus four more years. Karr
stated that was not an option. Strait asked for a review of an Iowa Code
' provision staH ng that a runner-up in the prevlous election shall be
j designated as the replacemenf. Ambrisco stated he supports the idea that
i the Council unanimously appoint someone to H11 the position. Strait
suggested that. people lnterested in being appointed to the position should
� formally or informally turn their names in to the tity Clerk's office.
� Ambrlsco agreed that t�e process should be forRaltzed.
Cou�cit agreed to fill t�e position that would be vacated by Kete Dickson
by appolntment. CounCil discussed the application procudurus. Karr
stated tAat a letter af interest could be submftted to the City Clerk's

Schmeiser said the applicant has withdrawn the request to vacate and
dispose of the Maiden Lane right-of-way between Harrison Street and
Court Street, Schmeiser said the Planning & Zoning Commission
recommended that the 47 foot wide portion of Malden l.ane between
Lourt and Harrlson streets be redesigned an alley provlded the City
commits to paving thls right-of-way and providing metered parking 1n
the area. In response ta Ambrisco, Schmeiser said he has not Geen in
contact with Paul Uunlap. 1lorowitz asked if there are ar�y other clty
alleys that are pave4 and metered. Schmeiser sald there are some
alleys used for parking. Ambrisco sald there is a matzred parking
area west of Gilpin D�inL S Glass store. Larson asked what would be
the advantages of desiynating the area an alley versus � street.
Sshmeiser replled that tNa reasons to designate the area an t�lley are
that a 20 foot setback for commor�ial bulldfngs would no longer be
required and lhe street functlons more as an alley. Horowitz

I Horowitz inquired about the status of a house located in her neighborhood,
1121 Kirkwood. Boothroy said the enforcement officer would decide if the
building would constitute a nuisance. Boothroy said that specific house
i appears to be kept up, but uhder the proposed set of regulations the City
could administratively take actlon to cause it to be repaired. Or,
administratively or with the municipal infraction, have the house removed
' or demolished. Horowitz referred to the ordinar�ce, Section 1, Article 6,
Section 24-101(a) Hazardous Wastes, and asked about the enforcement.
I Boothroy said that it will be enforced primarily throu9h the Johnson
County Health Department. Boothroy referred to Section 24-192(d)
Hazardous Wastes. Ambrisco asked if State statutes limits the maximum
amount of fines. Boothroy said f100 is the maximum under the municipal
� infraction process for first offense and f200 is maximum the City could
cite for a repeat offense. 600thray recommended that 5100 is a reasonable
amount to cite someone for first offense. In response to Larson, Boothroy
; agreed that tha proposed ordinance wou1G allow a house to remain vacant as
! long as it did not violate the Housing Code or was not laft unsecured.
� larson raised concerns that the ordlnance could be over-broad. Boothroy
� noted that some comnunfties use a registratlon process for vacant
, buildings.
Courtney asked when the proposed ordinance could be applicd to existing
abandoned bullding nuisances. Boothroy said the ordinance would apply to
extsting situetfons. Timntns stated that 1f bulldings �ro in � hazardous
condition now end constltute a nuisance, they would not be grendfathered
in under tha proposed ordt�ance. Timmins sald the ordin�nce would allow

Courtney asked if the 250 foot requirement (Section 31-162A.(4)) could be
expanded or narrowed. Boyle said he was not aware of any court decision
relating to the 250 foot requirement and the question that should be
addressed is: is the newspaper being given a fair opportunity to
distribute the paper?
Cain stated that two years ago when the Oesign Review Committee addressed
modular units on the City Plaza, they recommended that the modular units
be put in the downtown area, bounded by Burlington Street, South Capitol
Street, Iowa Avenue, and Linn Street. Cain said the ordinance, as
proposed, addresses modular units just on the City Plaza. Norowitz asked
if the Design Review Committee looked at examples of modular units. Cain
replied that Deslgn Review Committee members have seen modular units
designed by Birkley Small and modular units used in the Des Moines skywalk
system. Cain presented a photo of newspaper vending machine modular units
located in Boulder, Colorado. Larson asked why newspapers should be
placed in modular units. Cain said a uniformed r�odular unit offers
convenience, safety and is apsthetically plPasing. Larson asked if the
ordinance would ll,�nit the nuniber of newspaper vending machines located in
the Plaza. Boyle said it would not. Tlmmins said there are cities who
have held lottertes to see what newspapers get into the banks of newspaper
vending machines.

Schmeiser stated the Planning and Zoning Comnission recommended

commits to paving this right-of-way and providing metered parking in
the area. Schmeiser said it will cost approximately f62,000 to
construct that parking area and 6 out of 8 adjoining property owners
have been contacted. Atkins suggested staff ineet wiEh properiy
owners to discuss a development plan for the whole area. Boyle
stated the City is not under any obligation to act within a certain
time perlod on the vacation. Schmeiser said the initial request to
vacate was withdrawn but the applicant has agreed Lo redesignation of
the street, Council should go ahead and hold the public hearing.
Atkins said he is reluctant to use the parking fund to fund streets
and other options shauld be studied. Council directed staff to meet

Schmeiser said the purpose of the development is to relocate the
ready mix plant, construct a material handling unit, and to construct
a truck storage and shop building. Schmeiser said the Riverfront
Commission recommended three conditions as outlined in a letter to
Coum:il. Schr�eiser reported tha b�ilding offi�ial has chosen to
waive the requirement for vegetative screening along the south, east
and north boundaries of the site. Schmeiser distributed a plat of
the area to Councilmembers. In response to Strait, Schmeiser
explained the building official waived the screening requirement
because of the existing vegetation along the two boundaries and
because of the change in 9rade, making it difficult to see the site
from the river. Schmeiser said all of the deficieacies have been
corrected. Schmeiser said staff and the Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended waivers of the sidewalk requirements along
lmperial Court and provisions for the circle median in the turnaraund
of the cul-de-sac. Ambrisco cautloned that there may be a traffic
hazard from the large trucks egressing the existing curb cut. Larry
Schnittjer, MMS Consultants, said the internal traffic at the stte
has been changed and traffic will be exiting north of the utility
pole. Courtney inquired about the airport overlay ordinance.
Schmeiser said the proJect is 1n thp transition overlay zone of the
alrport but is not a problem, Norowitz asked where the cement
material washout of the truck drains go. 5chnitt�er explalned
drainage from the truck drafns into a washout pit. Schnittjer said
the cement left in the uashoul material setties in the washout pit
�nd the washout pit 1s clemed out on a regular basis. Schnitt�er
satd the cement material does not go into the sanitary sewer system.
Horowitz asked 1f underground fuel tanks are still located on tha

Schmeiser proposed the Council approve the resubdivision of Govern-
ment Lot 4 with two stipulations: 1) vacatian of a 3,778 square foot
portion of Waterfront Drive adjacent to the proposed subdivision, and
2) waiver of the provision of the sidewalk along Waterfront Orive.
Schmeiser reported that the staff and Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended waiving the sidewalk requirement along Waterfront Drive
because a sludge force main has to be constructed along Waterfront
Drive and no sidewalks presently exist in the area. Horowitz asked
if there will be temporary sidewalk installed during coostruction of
the sludge force main. Schmeiser said there are sidewalks proposed
on the west side. Horowitz said a temporary sldewalk or rope walk is
needed to protect pedestrians during construction. Atkins said he
will discuss the need far sidewalk with Public Works Director
Schmadeke.
No Councll comment.

raised concerns relating to safety and licensing. Van Meter explained
merchandising operations create additional congestion along Melrose Avenue
on football Saturdays and many of the merchandisers have not secured
licenses. Van Meter asked Council to work with the University to address
these problems. Strait asked if peddlers are illegally parked on Melrose
Avenue. Larson asked what is the City's interest in regulating the
peddlers. Van Meter said the Ciiy should share the University's concern
relating to congestion problems and non-payment of sales tax. Courtney
said the City lacks the personnel to help with enforcement. In response
to Ambrisco, Van Meter said she has not contacted University Heights.
Ambrisco asked that the University address the problems related to alcohol
consumption at the foothall games. Horowitz asked if Capt. Fuhrmeister
would accept delegation of authority from the City to allow the Univers9ty
to give permits to the peddlers. Council members discussed the vendor
problems. Councilmembers received 1 er onnelm should rbe usedrdto9 control

development nf St. Pat's building. Larson stated this area should be
considered concurrently with the Maiden Lane area. McDonald asked
Chait far comments regarding the proposed rzdevelopment of St. Pat's
; building. Benjamin Chait stated plans are still being worked on and
delaying action on the vacation of right-of-way will not impact on
'; his plans for the St. Pat's building.
Horowitz raised concerns regarding receiving input from property
owners in the area, including property owners located south of
' Ralston Creek. Larson said he received comments from an attorney
', representing six property owners in ihe area.
� McDonald inquired about the Maiden Lane area development study.
� Atklns said a meeting of Maiden Lane property owners is scheduled for

years ago the City established provisions allowing outdoor service areas
on the Plaza but they are handled separately as Plaza Cafes. Karr said
approximately seven to nine outdoor service areas currently exist.
Horowitz asked what input has been received from the Downtown Association.
Ambrisco stated that he receives many phone calls opposing outdoor service
areas, Karr noted that an outdoor service area must be on private
property, except within the Plaza as Plaza cafes. Horowitz noted that
three types of areas: the Plaza, public sidewalks, and privately owned
land, need to be considered. Karr suggested that Council could amend the
provisions that allow for permanent outdoor service areas to exclude 14-
day permit holders from doing a permanent structure or additional regula-
tions could be draEted to allow for a temporary outdoor structure.
Timmins said permanent outdoor service area regulations have comprehensive
regulations and could be amended. Regarding Maxie's request, Ambrisco
inquired about access control. Karr stated there is one limited access in
and three or four emergency exits out; Maxie's request was revie�ed by the
Fire Department, Police Departm�nt, and Housing Oepartment; and fencing
will be used to limit the access. Karr said each facility requesting a
temporary outdoor service area would need controlled access. Larson
requested staff to prepare language amending the permanent outdoor service
area regulations and establish regulations to allow temporary outdoor
structures. Council agreed to Karr's recommendation to grant Maxie's
permission for a two day event as outlined in her August 10 memo.
Regarding Season's Best.
Council discussed Season's Best request for an outdoor service area.
Timmins stated he had prepared a memo with recommendations and he would

Atkins said it is easier for law enforcement and public safety if liquor
establishments are located on the ground floor. Atkins said an issue is
enforcement of the City's licensing authority power. Larson addressed the
fairness/unfairness relating to the four bars, Sports Column, Fieldhouse,
College Street Club, and Mama's that get police calls, versus the Yacht
Club, with no police calls. Larsan stated the City�s licensing authority
should be exercised more vigorously. Horowitz said any bar should have
the facility to serve food. Horowitz said food percent as currently
applied should be changed. Ambrisco asked if a food service requirement
as a camponent of the liquor license could be enforced. Timmins said Iowa
law would not permit such a requirement. Timmins said the 50% requirement
originated as an administrative definition of a restaurant from the State
Code. Courtney stated he will not support allowing bars in basements.
Council discussed the bar/restaurant requirements for establishments not
located on the ground floor. Council directed staff to draft provisions
redefining restaurants.

if the property has not been properly subdivided and the issue relates to
replacement if a building burns down. Horowitz asked if the planning
process protects property owner. Boyle said this resolution will insure
the City will not make a property owner incur a substantial expense or
deny a building permit. In response to Atkins, Boyle said this waiver
will clear the titles.

1,000 feet clear zone intended for future 9nstrument landing approach, and
it is the FAA's positian that the Airport Clear Zone must remain clear.
Atkins asked Council to consider if the City should actively pursue the
instrument landing approach and suggested that Council meet with the
Airport Cortmission. Atkins noted the Public Works property is considered
to be one of the best commercial locations in the area and the property
will be diminished in value if the clear zone area cannot be used. Atkins
said limiting factors to development are the clear zone and that the
property is a landfill. Atkins said he has asked the Airport Commission
to establish policy or strategy regarding marking property in and around
the Airport. McDonald said he has contacted the Chair of the Airport
Commission regarding scheduling a joint meeting with Council. NcOonald
said the Airport Comnission is currently implementing a master plan for
the Airport. Norowitz asked what are other comnunity experiences with
developing airport property. Atkins said the Iowa City Airport is a
general aviation airport and this is a unique circumstance because there
is another public facility adjacent to the Airport. In response to
Horowitz, Atkins said the FAA personnel won't debate the issue with lowa
City. Atkins said if the City chooses to develop along the corridor,
certain development of the Airport could be precluded. Larson asked for
information relating to the cost of the Airport Master Plan and what are
the Airport's options if the Airport expansion is curtailed at this time.
Atkins noted the Airport operates independently from Council. Courtney
asked for an update on funding re:elved from the fAA, larson asked for a

COUNCIL VACANCY:
McOonald stated that the purpose of this special informal Council session
is to discuss filling the Council position vacated by George Strait's
resignation. McDonald noted that there is approximately three years
remaining in Strait's term and recomnended that Council call for a special
election to fill that position. McUonald said Tom Slockett has stated
that Cauncll has the authority to call the dates to hold that election and
the County Auditor's Office would prefer that Council does not call for
the special election with the national 6eneral Election. In response to
Larson, McDonald stated it would cost the City more to hold a special
local election with the G�neral Election than an another date. HcOonald
explained the cost incurred is based on a per ballot cost, more people
vate 1n a national General Election than in a lacal electlan and
therefore, that would lncrease the cost the City would have to pay.
Larson sald the actual cost to hold the special local election with the
general election should be less. Larson said the City's electlon costs
ought to be negotiable and the advantage of having a special local
election scheduled with the General Electio� 1s that more people vote.
McDonald raised concerns about Aolding a city election with a national
election bacause local lssues would be lost and not get the recognftlon
they deserve. McDonald stated that a special lacal election should not be
called for on the natlon�l Gener�l Election date. In responxn to
Courtney, Karr said to combtn� + special local electian with the Genor�l
Election, !he C1ty needs to form�lly notit'y the Elections Office no lotcr

election if it is scheduled with the General Election. Balmer said the
comnunity wants the Council to be non-partisan. Larson noted that City
Counc9l elections are held on non-General Election/aff years.
Councilmembers agreed that a special local election should be called and
that the election should not be scheduled with the national General
Election. Councilmembers directed Karr to prepare a table of potential
dates for the election. ln response to Larson, Karr said there has to be
47 days between the time the Election Office is notified of the election
and when the election occurs. Karr said other State Code provisions need
to be considered. Council agreed that the potential dates would be
discussed at informal session on September 19, 1988.
McDonald informed Council that the State Code provides that when an
individual 1s appointed, that nerson shall serve until the next election.
Timnins said the appointment shall be for the periad until the next
pending election as defined io Section 69.12 of the State Code and pending
election is defined as any election at which there would be on the ballot
either the office in which the vacancy exists or any other office to be
filled or any public questions to be decided by the voters of the same
political subdlvision, McDonald said Balmer will serve until the special
local election and then become a candidata in that election. Balmer
stated he will run in the special electlon for the remainder of Kate

See above Item B.
Schmeiser explained Council reviewed this subdivision's preliminary
plat concurrently with the qottingham Place SuSdivision. Schmeicer
said residents in the area have objected to the subdivision because:
1) the site will be too congested with the five proposed lots, 2) the
development will be out of character with the residential development
in the area, 3) the development will be contrary to the RS-5 zone, 4)
there will be severe environmental degradation, 5) the hammerhead
design of the cul-de-sac turnaround will not provide for on-street
parking or snow removal, and 6) if the front yard setbacks are not
varied to allow houses to be constructed further from the street,
there will be a"sea of asphalt" 1n the front yard. Schmeiser
distributed a map designating the hammerhead turnaround, and said the
hammerhead design was proposed to reduce the amount of environmental
impact in the area. Schmeiser said a special exception to reduce the
front yard setback of the proposed homes is pending wilh the Board of
Adjustment. Larson asked if the nelghborhooJ concerns are relevant
to Countil's decision regarding approving the final plat. Schmelser
said if the apPltcant mcets all af the subdivision requlrements and
other Lity ordinances and the plat is fairly consistent with Lhe

LIOUOR CONTROL ISSUES: Reel 88-52, Side 2
McDonald stated Council received City Atty. Timmins' September 14, �9gg,
memo regarding liquor control issues.
; McDonald said the City has received a request from Season's Best to
establish an outdoor service area. Timmins explained Season's Best has
proposed to establish an outdoor service area under the stairwell area of
the Cammerce Building. Timmins sumnarized the five categories of Sec;+,on
5-41 Outdoor Service Area Regulations as they apply to Season's Best.
Section 5•41 Outdoor Service Area Regulations provide that a) they cannot
encroach onto street right•nf-way, b) cannot be located in the front yard,
c) must be screened on alt sides, d) accesslble through establishment
only, and e) cannot be located within a residential zone or wlthin 100
; feet of a residential use, Timmins stated four of the regulatlons would
prevent Season's Best from having an outdoor servlte area and Council
could walve the screening and accessibility requirements. Timmins said
the Council additionally would need to amend the front yard location and
location with respect to residential uses provisions to grant Season's
Best's request. Timmins said an amendment to Section 5-41 has been
drafted� Tlmmins revtewed the proposed changes to Section 5-41 as
outlined in Exhibit B of his memo. Councilmembers disc�ssed the

Larson commented that Council should look at the fairness issue as it
relates to allowing liquor establishments that require substantial police
I attention versus regulating establishments who have required minimal
police attention.
' Council agreed with the proposed amendment changes and directed staff to
prepare a final draft of the ordinances. In reference to Season's Best
request, Timnins noted that Council needs to consider the screening and
' accessibility requirements. Larson stated that Season's Best should not
be given an unfair advantage over downtown businesses, McDonald noted
' that Season's Best request applies to private property. Atkins stated
that "front yard" is not defined in the ordinance. Timnins explained the
� term "front yard" is used in the current regulation, in downtown, front
� yard is defined as the required front yard, and there is no front yard
� required in the Zoning Ordinance in any City zone. Therefore, the
proposed language does not use the term "front yard." In response to
McDonald, Timnins stated that the provision providing that the outdoor
service area shall not be permitted within ]00 feet of a residential zone
will be amended.
TEMPORARY LICENSE. Tlmmins explained that under a seasonal or 14-day
license or permit, a liquor establishment can be established in
conjunction with an existing bar or separately and it can be in a
building, tent or parking lot. Timmins stated that he drafted a new set
of regulations for the uses. Timmins stated that a double fence Hill be
required and a sound equipment permit will be required if amplifled sound
equipment is used. Timmins said that if a liquor establishment is in a
building, it can be located anywhere. If it is not in a bullding and in a
residential zone, the outdoor ser�:ice area cannot be any closnr than 100
feet to the closest resfdence.
Councll discussed the Sound Ordlnante. Timmins explained the tity has not
enfarced the Sound Ordinince because of an early challenpe to the Sound
Ordinance in the Magfstr�te's Court which was upheld, in referenc• to the
noise tomplaint, Atklns expl�tned that pollce wfll gtve one warninq md

Ordinance to amend Chapter 36-23 of the Zonina Ordinance, the
Commercial Intensive Zone.
Schmeiser said this wauld allow greater square footage for manufac-
turing use in this comnercial zone. Schmeiser said expedited
consideration of this ordinance has been requested. Schmeiser said a
wording change was made to clarify the meeting of "manufacturing
portion" of the ardinance. Clarifying language was added to define
"manufacturing portions" as manufacturing as a principal use and not
accessory use to principal use, Ambrisco asked if ffve or six
Council votes are needed for expedited consideration. McDonald
stated six votes are needed to aRprove waiving of the second reading.
Horowitz asked if Council will rescind action taken on this ordinance
if the business does not move in. Horowitz stated that she asked
that performance standards be applied because of the business's
proximity to residents. Horowitz asked how this applicatian of the
ordinance aould be monitored and evaluated. Schmeiser said the
merfts of the ordinance should be considered and not the particular
use. Schmeiser stated the manufacturing use must comply with same
performance standards as for commercial use. Schmeiser said the
ordinance specifically states that if there is any question regarding
the particular use complying with the performance standards af the
ord9nance, the City can require a registered professional engineer to
certify that thu use w111 be in campliance with the performance
standards.

contracted out to alleviate the demanding work load. Tircmins said the
Legal Department has made extensive use of outside legal counsel and could
continue to do so. Tirtmins explained that work related to property
acquisitions for the sewer project is complex and difficult and said that
the smaller praperty acquisitions could be handled by outside counsel.
Tirtmins explained that the paper work for condemnatians could 'oe done by
City legal staff but court appeals can be assigned to outside counsel. He
recomnended against assigning condemnation work far the Compensation
Commission to outside counsel. McDonald stated that Boyle 1s a valuable
member of the City's legal staff. In response to McDonald, Timnins stated
that Boyle could be moved from the administrative pay plan to the execu-
tive pay plan to provide Boyle Hith additional compensation, allowing the
City Council to directly set Boyle's pay. Timmins �lso suggested that
Boyle's position should have a new title to reflect the constitutional and
land use planning duties. An annual resolution would be required to set
the pay of the new position, similar to the current practice with City
Manager, City Clerk and City Attorney. Horowitz said that she wondered
what is done when a position is created, if the image of the person can be
separated from the position, and if that position is still going to remain
that subject matter with the title and renumeration.
ln response to larson, Atkins stated that as a governmental agency the
City Council attempts to provide an overall pay plan. Atkina stated that
traditionally the executive pay plan has been reserved for departmental
directors and the cost of living and bonus system are also methods for
compensation. Balmer asked 1f Boyle received a pap raise for this fiscal
year. Timnins stated Boyle received a 3% cost of tiving lncrease and has
been at the top of his pay scale for several years. Atkfns stateQ there
is a reclassificatlon process whereby the employee has to demonstrate
their job has changed, Ambrisco noted tAat the City has kept posittons

Timmins discussed the issue of charging people with violations under City
code versus state code. Larson asked if the City should take back the
cases now bcing handled by David Brown. Timnins stated Brown should
still handle the cases that are in the Supreme Court on appeal and the
condemnation cases could be handled in-house. Timnins said Council is
notified of legal work handled by outside counsel in a form of a resolu-
tion. McDonald requested status reports regarding what work is being
handled by the Legal Department. Balmer requested information regarding
what the City has paid out for outside legal assistance in the past five
years. Council agreed to have the City Attorney proceed with � pay
increase for Asst. Dick Boyle.
KEGGER ORDINANCE: Reel 88-53, Side 2
McDonald stated that work was done on the proposed Kegger Ordinance in
1964. Aikins stated a Kegger Ordina�ce would bring control to large
parties and would also aid the local bars and restaurants. Atkins stated
staff has reviewed a Kegger Ordinance used by CEdar Falls and A4kins
stated now is :he best time to initiate a Kegger Ordinance. Council
agreed to pursue the Kegger Ordinance. Atkins said the City will need to
clearly articulate what the police policies will be.
TEMPOWIRY OUTDOOR SERVICE AREAS: Reel 88-5?, Side 2
Timnins noted Councll received a September 29 memo regarding revisions to
Lhapter 5. Timmins explalned that the State of Iowa will allow an
existing licensed establishment to have a temporary outdoor service area
under their existing license, but the State of Iowa will not icsue an
additional fourteen day license or permit to an establishmen4 th�t is
already licensed. Staff recommends that existing establishments make ar.
application fbllowing new rxgulations in the proposed or�inance and
Councll would direct the Clerk to send a letter ta the lowa Beer and
Llquor Control authorixing ths temporary outdoor service area. Seasoml
or 11•day licenses or permits would continue to be issued to � nnn-
ltcansed holder. Tlmnins nuted that the Temporary Outdoor Servlce Are�

06/24 and there is a commitment that the way the airport exlsts today is
how the airport will remain. Blum reviewed the advantages and disad-
vantages for extending Runway 06/24. Ockenfels noted that newer aircraft
use less runway and noisy jzts are being phased out by law. Blum
commented that the length of Runway 12/30 will be reduced and the FAA's
primary direction is to support one runway. Blum presented a map of
airport property and autlined areas that are developable. Blum said three
things are needed to develop airport property: a cortmitment, investment
of airport monies, and an aggressive marketing plan. Airport Camnission
members, Cw�ncil members and staff referred to maps and discussed develop-
ment of airport property. In response to Balmer, Schmeiser said it would
cost an estimated f700,000 to extend utilities and roads to the airport
property. Balmer inquired about property taxes and mechanisms ensuring
some type of benefit to the City when airport property is developed.
Balmer stated the City staff, comnunity economic development organizations
and the Airport Commission need to all be involved in the development of
airport tand. Airport Manager 0'Neil stated that the airport farms
approximately 188 acres but industrial use would bring in more revenue.
0'Neil stated the decisions need to be made if development of airport
property is going to be actively pursued.
Ambrisco asked if the City will be campeting wlth the development af BDI
versus alrport property. Blum stated that certain types of buslnesses
are tied to airport use and look for airport sites to develoD on. Atkins
said there wi11 be significant public involvement in industrial park
development in Iowa City's future. ealmer satd a goal is to see the
airport setf-supporting. Atkins ratsed a concern 36out the major capital
commitments Where the Lity would need to use its debt service for airport
improvement. Atkins stated lnformation 1s needed regarding the airport's
long-term eapital plans. Blum said long•term flnancial comnitment from
the t'AA eould be approximatcly f2 million. Horowitz asked who would
o4minister lndustrial development of the atrport property. Atkins said
there �re plenty of economic development organiuttons in tM s cammunity
to asstst with development of the prvperty . 0'Nefl stated it Is important
for tha Airport to st+y 1n compltmco with f.he FAA and zoning will noed to
b� chingtd to allow development of the atrport property. Atkins stated he

DEVELOPER IMPACT FEES FOR SUBDIVISION DEVELOPMENT:
Ambrisco cautioned Louncilmembers that costs assaciated with imposing an
impact fee would be passed on to the cansumer purchasing a home. Horowitz
noted upper level income houses are being developed in the subdivisions.
Horowitz said if the developer does not pay the impact fee then the rest
of the city pays for the city services that serve the subdivlsion.
Ambrisco said entry level houses are being built in the tounty and there
is p�tential for more property to be developed within lowa City once the
south wastewater treatment plant is built. Larson said there may be more
middle income development. Larson said he would be uncomfortable with an
impact fee that was designed to generate fees for same other project such
as housing for the Aomeless or rehabilitation programs. touncllmembers
discussed impact fees and development costs. Atkins said off-site
expenses caused by development, such as the need for trafflc improvements,
should be considered. Atklns asked if the development should contribute
to a cost they taused to the general taxDayer. Atkins said rJevelopment
does cost off•site expensus. Atkins asked if Iowa C1ty's growth rate
justifies the City tmposing impact fees �nd 1f the City's ftnancial
posttlon requlres the City to pursue this type of program. Atkins sald
the developer and homeowner should have the responsib111ty to pay

tLEVIEW OF ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS:
McDonald stated the Council did adopt an Environmental Policy Statement
recommendation by the Urban Environmental Ad Hoc Comnittee. McDonald
asked touncilmembers if more stringent environmental regulations should be
adopted. Larson said that if developers are going to be held responsible
for environmental consequences of development, there should be
environmental regulation in the Code. Larson said the environmental
standards are needed. Atkins said addressing environmental concerns
create a political dilenuna and the issue is two-fold: 1) to protect and
preserve certain areas, or 2) to alloN development. Councilmembers
� discussed environmental regulations and development in Iowa City.
; Horowttz said that definitlons for environmental policies can be written
as incentives for large lot development. Atkins said most of the City's
environmental issues are based on infill. Atkins said other cities have
used planned urban development - zoning certain parcels as environmentally
I sensitive areas and requiring certain design criteria. In response to
Council, Timmins said for the Nottingham case, there were no environmental
regulations and traffic considerations were at issue. Timmins said
i certain areas in the community may be more appropriate for large lot
i development and the Planning and Zoning Comnission should examine density
issues. Timmins said zoning is a point in time when the City decides what
type of density of housing is suitable for the area and subdivision is
merely an administrative act.
Larson asked 1f the City can do anything about the eroslon problems
occurring behind the Cliffs. Timnins said if there 1s a nuisance and
danger to adjoining property, the City could axercise their nuisance
abatement authority. Larson asked staff to address the problems, larson
sald the erosion occurring behind the Cliffs is an eyesore, a terrlble
example to other developers, and lack of concern for adjoining property
I owners.
Atkins asked Council if Lhoy wanted to addrnss the envlronmental
regulatians by establishinq new regul�tions as a p�rt of the subdivlslon
process or with tha zoninq. Councllmembors agreed that environment�l

STREET PROJELTS -_F1RST AVENUE EXTENDED. SCOTT BOULEVqRD EXTEND D H[GNNAY
1 NORTH: —
Ambrisco said First Avenue extended is critical and should be accelerated.
Atkins explained ACT owns the 220 acres immediately east and ACT has been
told the City has not made any publlc comnitment to pay for the road.
Atkins said ACT is considered establishing an office park on the north
portion of the property and single-family development for the rest of the
property. Ambrisco said a coordinated planning effort is needed for the
area. Atkins said a report is being prepared by ACT. Courtney said
secondary access is an issue. ln response to Larson, Atkins said First
Avenue could be used for secondary access. Horowitz said Dodge Street
improvements also need to be looked at. Atkins said major street projects
can use up the City's capital capabilities quickly and Iowa City streets
are currently in good shape. Atkins said there are times the Council may
need to consider a public investment to cause development to occur.
McDonald asked about Scott Boulevard. Atkins said extension of Scott
Boulevard would depend somewhat on what ACT does. McDonald said there is
not pressure to extend Scott Boulevard now that Local Road has been
improved. Courtney inquired about Foster Road. Timnlns said Public Works
has worked on plans and appraisals have been done. Atkins noted that
Highway 1 North plans are proceeding along.
L[TY MANAGER'S GOAL STAT MFNT;
Atkins said the City Manager's Goal Statement articulates what he believes
to be the guiding principles of the City's organization and a
demonstration of commitment. Atkins sald the Goal Statement outlines what
he will continue to do and influences deetslons he makes. Balmer said
maintaining the AAA bond rating is imDortant. Ambrisco said Council's
positio� on economic development is +n integr�l part of the City's goals.
Norowitz asked if Councilmembers shoutd take the lead on promoting
tconomlc development. Ambrisco s�id one of the ways Councfl promotes
economic development is by demonstr�ting support for ICAD. In response to
Horowltz, Ambrisco said paoplu involved wlth economtc development

Iowa City needs more direct benefits from ICAD�s economic development
efforts. Council discussed ICAD and economic development activities
within Iowa City. McDonald asked staff to schedule � discussion regarding
economic development.
�4IC CENTER lMPROVEMENT:
Atkins presented plans for the Civic Center Expansion Project. Atkins
said a City staff architect, Jim Schoenfelder, has prepared preliminary
plans to expand the Civic Center over a period of years that will satisfy
the Lity's building and office needs well into the future and allow Public
Works and Planning to move out of their rented space and back into the
Civic Center, Atkins reviewed a three-phase plan that would affect the
Police Department, Fire Department and the courtyard area. Atkins said
the project would cost an estimated 52.2 million and 550,000 in
architectural fees could be saved by using the City staff architect.
Atkins asked that the Phase 1- Police Department Modernization - be
included in the upcoming budget. Atkins said the C1vic Center Expansion
Project witl be financed over a three-year period using approximately 51.2
million of in-housing financing and certlficates uf particlpation. Atklns
sald the Police Oepartment needs some tmnedlato work. Caurtney asked 1f
the Police are satisfled with the proposed access to the police cars.
Atkins showed Councilmembers the proposed layout of the Police Department
plans, Larson asked 1f the proposed Police Department modernization plans
are more important to Police Department efficiency than signlficant
tncrease in police staff. Atkins said if the physical enviranment ts
improved, the department w111 become moro afficte�t and almost 5,000 hours
of untfarmed offtcers time presently used for clerking purposes could be

property will be disposed of with a City Deed/Quitclaim Deed which
relinquishes the City of any rights of the property. Timmins

IOWA-ILLINOIS GAS L ELECTRIC TRANSFORMER IN THE ]00 BLOCK OF EAST
WASHINGTON STREET: Reel 88-55, Side 2
Patt Cain stated the Design Review Committee made a recomnendation that
the transformer be placed underground and the Iowa-Illinois Gas & Electric
Company has requested the opportunity to discuss this with the City
Louncil prior to the City Council taking any formal action. Cain
distributed photos showing a transformer placed in the approximate
locatian proposed by Iowa-Illinois Gas & Electric, Cain explained the
; proposed transformer for the site is ten feet lower, but wider and deeper
than the one shown in the photos. Tom Hoogerwerf, D1strlct Manager for
Iowa-Illinots, asked Council to qive favorable consideration to lowa-
Illinois Gas G Electric's request for the aboveground transformer in the
i 100 block of East WasM ngton Street. Hoogerwerf stated there are
currently 36 aboveground transformers in and around Iowa Lity's downtown
� area, five of which are on sidewalk areas similar to the proposed
; location. Hoogerwerf explained that several years ago when Iowa-Illinois
i Gas 6 Clectric Company started undergrounding electric facilities in the
downtown area, the plan was that all transformers were to be aboveground
I and Council, at that t1me, concurred with that. Noogerwerf said lowa-
Illinois Gas 6 Eleetrlt Company is praposing io lacate tha transfer in the
landscaped bermed area about mid-block and said the reason for wanting an
abovegraund transformer �s opposed to a vault is casts. A vault

transformer. Hoogerwerf explained two transformers on Iowa Avenue serve
part of Clinton Street and Iowa Avenue, one transformer located on ]owa

Timmins outlined recruitment of the Assistant City Attorney. Timmins
stated he wants to recruit an attorney with prior municipal experience and
experience in the area of planning and zoning, development control and
economic develapment. Timmins explained he would utilize bo:h general
recruitment and direct recruitment of other municlpal attorneys. Timmins
asked that the Council agree to a salary in the range of 535-543,000 for
someone with at least five ycars of legal experience and two ycars of
municipal experience in planning and zoning, In response to McDonald,
Timmins said the salary rango should be comparable with other ctttes. In
response to Horowitz, Timntns said he may try to contact former lowa
attorneya who have left the St�te. In response ta Larson, Timmins s+1d
although there is a natlonel flavor to municipal attorney dutiea an9
planning and xoning, the posttlon probably does not warrant a n�tlonal
search. larson suggested notiflcatlon af the open positton to select

regarding minutes of ineeting. Balmer noted that there were problems in
the past. Karr said memos from previous mayors outline problems regarding
delay in receiving minutes. Councilmembers discussed minute problems.
Larson said Council could give direction regarding when minutes should be
done. Karr said problems involve staffing, length of minutes, and
turnaround time. Schmeiser explained minutes are handled a number of
different ways. Schmeiser recomnended that Council require that Board and
Commission minutes be presented to Council prior to Council's discussion
of any items contained in those minutes. Schmeiser noted that it does
take several hours for minutes to be prepared in draft form. Schmeiser
offered that minutes done by the Plann+ng Department could be included in
Council's agenda packet the second week after the meeting. Karr referred
te her September 30th memo regarding minutes of ineetings, item C.1. states
that no action be requested of Council until receipt of appropriate Board
and Commission minutes by Council, and item 4.e. recommendations to City
Council 1) items should be listed as separate agenda items to distinguish
them from formal receipt and filing of minutes. Councii discussed the
importance of receiving minutes in a timely manner. Karr said the
lmportance of draft minutes are that th?y are presented to Louncil to give
Council an idea of what was discussed. Karr said draft minutes are also
presented to Board and Comnission members at their next meeting and 1f
there are changes, they should be put into the text of the next minutes in
detail to reflect those changes. Courtney sald Council should receive
minutes before an item is discussed by Council. Ambrisco stated the City
Mana9er sends Councilmembers background information. Horowitz stated that
IF there is a split vote, tha reason for the split vote should be tn the
minutes. Helling said that there should be a City-wide policy that 1f
Doards md Commissions have recommend�tions, Councll should receive those
minutes as soon as possible. Horowlt2 Suggestud that importart discussion

Beagle said the right-of-way was platted in 1911 and runs parallel to
Dill Street. Beagle said the applicant, Dr. Jack Moyers, one of five
abutting property owners, desired to construct an additian on the
rear of his property and was constrained by setback limitations.
Beagle explained that because of steep slopes in the right-of-way
currently serves as a drainageway, there is not a likelihood the
right-of-way would ever be improved to serve as a public street,
Beagle said City staff and the Planning 6 Zoning Commission have
recomnended to approve the vacation. Courtney asked about an
abutting property owner's concern about access. Boyle said the
property can be sold subject to an easement for access and drainage.
8eagle explained the access can be provided at the time of
disposltton. Larson questioned the objectton by Harlene Perrin.
Boyle expl�ined she will need an easement to cross the right•of•way
to enable use of her driveway and the abutting property owner is
responsibla for maintenance of the right•of-way. In response to
Larson, Boyle said there will be no detriment to Perrin's property if
the easement is obtatned. Larson asked who would purchase the right•

rezoning. Beagle explained they did provide for a 20-faot sanitary
sewer. easement extending along the probable alignment of the sewer
extension and when development occurs on the other side of the
highway, the praperty owner or developer would be required to provide
for that extension. In response to Courtney, Beagle said the Legal
staff said that the sewer extension could be required now, but both
the Planning 8 Zoning Comnission and staff felt that the sewer
extension could only be required if this was a subdivision proposal.
Beagle said that Legal contends that the proposal is comparable to a
subdivision proposal and as a development issue, the City has the
right to consider various improvements, etc. to promote the public
health, safety and welfare. The Planning 8 Zoning Commisston did not
feel th�t the Press-Citizen should pay a tap-in fee to tap lnto the
existing sewer line and also provide a sewer that wouldn't benefit
them. ln response to Courtney, Beagle said that in the future a
property owner ar developer could extend the sewer and request that a
tap-in fee ordinance be enacted by the City to reimburse the ori91na1
developer on a pro rata basis for the extension of that sewer.
Horoxitz said that this comes down to a question of Nhether or not in
that zone the owner of that property can subdivide for residential
houses. Horowitz stated that she was under the impression that you
can't do that to the east of the Press-C1Lizen. Beagle sald that the
16.95 acre parcel is divlded into a western twa•thirds and eastern
one-third; the Press•Cttizen fac111ty is proposed for the western
two-thirds; there 1s no development propusal for the eastern one•
third; md it is not proposed to be subdivided. If the Press•Citfren
did subdtvlde the eastern porlion, the sewer extension could be
considered. Beagle eddnd that the eastern one-third is included �s

In response to Courtney, Atkins said that no formal traffic studies

concern that Iowa Avenue, Johnson Street and Van Buren Street will
have to bear more traffic than they are designed for. Beagle said
the Planning 8 Zoning staff has not yet fully evaluated the site plan
as submitted because of the conflict with the Comprehensive Plan and
inconsistencies with the establtshed character of the neighborhood.
In response to Larson, Beagie said ihat a co�ditianal zoning

the City to Aave input into the speciflcs such as drlve•up lane

CEDARWOOD NEIGHBORHppD CENTER.
Horowitz asked 1f CCk was satisfied that the residents of the area had
input into the project. Joan VandenBerg said there is high participation
in programs by are a residents and 50 of 64 families are participating in
Cedarwood programs. Larson asked why 550,000 was recoawended. Kubby said
the 550,000 was recommended as seed money and the 550,000 and land will
make applications for additional funding more appealing. Larson asked if
City property would be better for the neighborhood center. Atkins said
the City considered many uses for the land behind the property located at
1902 Broadway, including filling in the ravine, rechannelizing it, putting
in a storm sewer, and building a duplex. Atkins noted @raverman needs
land for parking for businesses in the area. Councilnembers discussed
funding the proposed neighborhood center. Milkman stated the neighborhood
center should not be called the Cedarwood Neighborhood Lenter because it
is intended to serve the southeast area of Iowa City.
HOOYER ELEMENTARY SCNOOL HANDICAPPED PLAY FACILITY.
Kubby explained Hoover Elementary School originally requested 55,600; 5650
was raised through community fund-raising efforts; and therefore, CCN
recomnended f5,000 aliocation. Milkman said staff made the recommendation
to allocate 52,500 because it was felt that one-half of the money could he
raised from the community and Schaol District. Milkman said consideratlon
uas also qiven to the Davis-Bacon wage requfrements and the proposed use
of volunteer labor. Milkman stated that CDBG regulations do oot allow the
use of volunteer labor. Courtney inquired about the l�bor issue. Milkman
explalned that school personnel may be able to do some of the work because
their wages plus benefits may be comparable to the Davis-Baton wage scale.
Kubby said if tou�c{1 allocated 55,000 and Hoover uses 5650 raised from
th� comnunity, the project would be fully funded. Gusrrin Thompson,
Noover School Drinctpal, steted the term 'volunteer l�bor" 1s really the

Milkman asked Council to make final decisions regarding CDBG funding
allocations after the public hearing because the plan needs to be �dopted
by November 29, 1988. Regarding Hayor's Youth Riverfront Cleanup Project,
M1lkman explained this project is eligible; however, it is considered a
public service and fund9ng must come out of the 15%/590,000 allocation
Aid-to-Agencies. Milkman said the Nayor's Youth Riverfront Cleanup
Project cauld be eligible under the clearance of slum and blight, but it
has to occur in a designa�ed urban renewal area such as part of the Lower
Ralston Creek Project. Atkins suggested Council could appropriate funds
for the Mayor's Youth Rlverfront Cleanup from the general budget. In
response to Larson, Penney said Mayor's Youth receives 530,000 a year in
operating funds from the City. In response to ll�brisco, Milkman explained
the CCN recomnendations to fund 54,325 for the M�yor's Youth Riverfront
Cleanup Project would not need to be taken out of the 15%/590,000 Aid-to-
Agencies monies if it is considered clean-up of slum and blight.
Councilmembers discussed CDBG recommerdations,
Regarding the Nopver Elementary School request, Balmer suggested an
additional f2,500 be taken from the Contingency Fund. Nilkman noted that
the Benton Street Droject is a big project and f30,000 is a relatively
smalt contingency fund. Several CCN members agreed that 52,500 could be
taken out of tha Contingency Fund and used to fully fund the Noover
Elementary Schooi H�ndlcapped p}ay Facllity request. Ann Rawlands, CCN
member, stateO CCN is lnterested 1n funding the H+yor's Youlh project.

the draft ordinance goes way beyond what is required to handle parties and
the City already has some remedies. Horowitz said an approach of
legtslatlon and education is needed. Harowitz said the University, public
and Council should Nork together. Councit agreed to Atkins' suggestion to
form an ad hoc cortmittee to address the Kegger Ordinance. Larson said the
ad hoc cortmittee should not only address the Kegger Ordinance, but also
the alcohol problems associated with bars and restaurants. Ambrisco said
a provision in the Kegger Ordinance should make the property owners hold
some responsibility far the activities of tenants. Atkins said he will
provlde Council with recommendations regarding an ad hoc comnittee.
Larson requested information regarding a chronology of how the law has

Timnins stated he has met with Mr. Leff, University Heights City Attorney,
to discuss water/sewer agreement and the City's position was looked upon
as fair. Timnins said the agreement establishes the City of Iowa C1ty 1s
operating a water utility in University Heiyhts as a water utility
provider and operating the sewer system and doing minor inspection and
maintenance. Timnir.s sald both ut111ty systems will be incorporated into
the same agreement and a single uniform rate structure will exist
throughout lowa City and University Heights. Timmins explained that at
some point in time, under the agreement, if Unlversity Neights brought
their sewer system up to en ecceptable standard, then IoMa tity would
eventuelly accept the sewer system and full responslb111ty for it.
itmmins said the Unlverslty water/sewer agreement is required by the DNR

Solid Waste Management Issues: Reel 88-61, Side 2
McDonald noted that Councilmembers received memos fram Councilmember
Horo.vitz and City Manager Steve Atkins in the 11/23 packet. Norowitz
explained that the State and Federal EPA have set out a hierarchy: (1)
Horowitz stated that volume reduction at the source is addressed through
public education by the media. People often buy toxic or non-
biodegradable products. The second hierarchy is recycling or reusing,
which includes composting, and can be encauraged by puDlic education and
developing marY.ets. The third hiorarchy is waste energy, refuse derived
fuel production. The fourth hierarchy is combustion of refuse for volume
reductian. The fifth hierarchy 1s mono-fill landfillc. Horowitz stressed
that hierarchy should be considered in terms of its impact on Iowa City.
Horowitz stated that Iowa City is responding Lo the Department of Natural
Resources and statad that a consultant has been hired by the East Central
lowa Council of Governments. Plans are to have three options from the
consultant in about stx months. Horow{tz stated that she will cantinue to
provide informatlon to Councilmembers.

Schmeiser stated the property is located northeast of Eastdale Mall,
behind Goodwill Industries and the property is presently zoned I-1.
Schmeiser reported John Moreland, owner of the property, wants to
establish apartments above the ground flaor of the building.
Schmeiser said residential uses are nat permitted in the I-1 zone.
Schmeiser said the CC-2 zone is consistent with surrounding proper-
ties and the Planning and Zoning Commission will be acting on this
request on Thursday. Councilmembers discussed the location of the
property. (n response to Horowltz, Schmeiser stated Moreland wants
to establish an offlce and place apartments above the office use.
Horowitz asked how the property will be accessed. Schmeisor said
access w111 be through officially approved piaces that are part of
the Eastdale Mall drives. Horowitz asked where other residences are
louted and how close the property is to a child care facility.
Schmeiser st�ted there �re no other residences near the proposed use
and 1t would be louted close to � child care faciltty. Sthmeiser

the request of child care providers, to eliminate the requirement for
child care facilities with six or fewer children or children being
cared for for two hours or less in one day to not come under the
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. They would still be considered
home occupations and would need to be meet the requirements of the
Zoning Ordinance for home occupations. Schmeiser said the other
i proposed change is to allow hours of operation of home occupations to
� begin at 7:00 AM. Schmeiser said a public hearing for the proposed
amendments is scheduled January 10, 1989. Narawitz asked why change
the hours of operation to 7:00 AM and not just delete the provision
for hours of operation. Schmeiser said the regulations apply to home
occupations established within the city. Hm•owitz said she knows of
, a cMld care facility that has responsibility for ch9ldren overnight.
Larson asked if a speciai category for cMld care should be created.
Horowitz said Ccuncil will be confronted with the child care issue
again and the subject is being looked at the by the Johnson County
; Health Planning Board.

1DOT Transit Fundina Formula: Reel 88-63, Side 2
Jeff Davidson stated Lhe federal UMTA transit f�mding is beina discussed
tonlght. Davldson explained every year JCCOG receives an amount of money
from the federal government to be used to operate lowa City, Coralville
and University of lowa transit systems and in 1982 the JLCOG Board adopted
a formula for disbursement of those funds based on a performance•based
formula. D�vidson said it was considered that the Iowa C1ty and
Coralville transit systems have higher operating expenses than University
of lowa CAMBUS transtt end it Kas decided to use opera Nn and malntenance
costs together wlth loully determined fncome to esta�llsh a formula.
Davldso� st�ted th�t the funds are approximate disbursements for the
current ye�r �r� ii fo118ws: 60� to lou� City, 25% to Untverslty of towa
CAMBUS, end 15% to Cor�lvilla. Davidson sN d in tha p+st couplo of years,

for CAMBUS is approximately the same percentage as it is for the municipal
systems. Ambrisco noted CAMBUS operation has a distinct advantage because
of their lawer wage scale. Larson said CAMBUS takes the more premium
routes and people chose to rtde CAMBUS because it is free. Ambrisco said
it is ludicrous to have three transit systems within the area. Davidson
expl ained CAMBUS does not charge a fare because they move large numbers of
people very short distances and the amount of time a bus would have to
stay at a stop to collect a fare would be a detriment to the system.
Davidson said also a sacur9ty system would be needed if a fare was used.
Courtney asked that the University require some type af student or staff
ID to use the CAMBUS system.
Davidson said JCCOG does not need to take action on the formula until
August. Horowitz said JCCOG should cons{der a formula that would be an
incentive to increase ridership. Council directed Davidson to request
that JCCOG defer action on decisions relating to the federal UMTA transit
funding formula.

operators is different than phone conversations. In response to Horowitz,
Myers said that a new system Nill not call for fewer personnel. Myers
said the idea for a joint facility originally came from the Johnson County
Sheriff's Department because they are concerned about coordin ation of two
or three PSAP. Myers stated that the Iowa City, Coraiville, Lone Tree,
North Liberty and all other area emergency volunteer fire departments need
to be considered. Myers noted that savings will not come through less
personnel, but rather through the economy of scale and delivery of service
and the type of hardware used. Myers stated that such systems have worked
in other places.
Johnson County Sheriff Elect Carpenter said that his main concern is that
Johnson Cuunty is different from Scott County which has one major city.
He stated the real problem is how the system can work when backups are 20
miles apart rather than three miles apart as in Iowa City. Carpenter
noted that Johnson County currently has t�+o full-time dispatchers on duty
out of a staff of seven. Carpenter stated he would see the need for an
additional two dispatchers on duty if Iowa City is added. Carpenter
� stated that it 1s important that a comnon bond be maintained and that bond
is currently the county jail. Carpenter stated that his primary toncern
is taking away from the safety of officers in the service to the people,
� In response to Courtney, Carpenter agreed that being on different radio
I frequencies is a problem in Johnson County and that 1t 1s impossible to
talk between Johnson County and towa City patrol cars. Carpenter stated
I Johnson County handles all the county communications through thelr
disp�tcher, except for lowa Ctty Do11ce and Fire Oepartments. Myers
stated if jolnt comnunications 1s tied in with E911, cost of lhe
cansultant could be recovered from the 25-cent fee. In response to
Horowitz, Myers said that a tt�t� l�w authorizes a 25•cent charge per
tel�phone line fn a county to p�y for the capttal costs, ff approved by

Landfill Uadate:
Horowitz reported that the Technical Advisory Comnittee of ELICOG has
hired a consultant to look at a six-county area to develop options
regarding management of solid waste. Horowitz cautioned that everyone
will need to educate themselves to the potential of solid waste manage-
ment. Ambrisco stated he monitored the University of Iowa public hearing
re�arding the incinerator at Oakdale. Horowitz asked if the issue was
raised regarding how there can be a research park located near the
incinerators, Ockenfels said the University of Iowa feels there will be
no problems. Burns said only 1,600 pounds per day will be incinerated.
Myers reported on the proposed incineration process and said that he would
recommend the air emitted from the chimney be scrubbed because of the
potential for acid rain. Nyers raised concerns regarding the Uniaersity
