Dr. Iowa City, Iowa October 24, 1978 City Council Civic Center Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Council Members: We wish to express our opposition to the recent proposal to close Melrose Court. Although it is obvious that some action is needed to make the street safer for both pedestrian and automobile traffic, its closure would be wasteful and would cause inconvenience and even some danger to the residents of the area. According to traffic counts made by the city, nearly 3,000 cars per day traverse Melrose Court. If 2,200 of these are forced to add � mile to their trips (a modest assumption, considering the geography of the area), approximately 100 extra gallons of gasoline will be con- sumed. Thus each year a surprising 35,000 gallons of gasoline would be wasted by closing the street. If the north end of Melrose Court were closed, the additional traffic from Greenwood Drive that would then use Myrtle Street might create a need for a stop light on Myrtle and Riverside. Even so, such a closing would be better than the proposed one at Greenwood. Indeed, it is surprising that this latter closing seems to be sup- ported by the neighborhood association. It would make the entire area virtually inaccessible to automobiles before and after each major athletic event and signifi- cantly more difficult to reach and leave during the 5:00 P.M. rush hour. Closing the street at Greenwood would create a safety problem by making the area difficult for emergency vehicles to reach during the high -traffic times mentioned above. Moreover, during the evening hours the very presence of traffic makes the park a little less desolate and thus a little safer for pedestrians.

Clearly the street is a dangerous one.

However, on 23 October 78 I witnessed a neighbor's boy come literally within inches of being struck by a passing truck in front of my home. There is a hedgerow along Melrose Court in front of our house and the boy ran through the gate into the street. Only by diving into the hedge did he avoid being hit by an oncoming truck. In the course of the last six months we have also lost approximately 30% of the hedge in front of our house when it was sideswiped by a rapidly moving car on a rainy night. We have also lost a city street sign across the street when it was struck by a passing car. Because of the high volume of traffic on Melrose Court, its' narrowness, and the unsafe sidewalk along the west side, I would suppo y changesY ou could make to diminish the traffic flow on our street. Thank you for your consideration. 1 AA /—V-- Mipphae1 Varner, MD 22d Melrose Court Iowa City, Iowa 52240 351-9261 �uLID J NOV2 1978 J ABBIE STOLFUS CITY CLERK I41CROFILMED BY JORM AAICR+LAB 1 CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES 2oz9 �.

I am grateful for your assurance that the county will seek the University's active con- sultation and suggestions concerning the project. At the outset, it is fair to say that any proposal for construction on the street, gives rise to University concerns about the following: 1. The proposed jail site is in the Old Capitol sighL•line, and its design will have an aesthetic impact of one sort or another on the extended Old Capitol area. 2. Because the University owns the entire block west of the proposed site, including three houses fronting on Capitol street, we have concerns about sufficient access and easements to permit the best use of our property in the future, as well as the continued use of the houses. 3. We have general concerns about the effect of this street closing on traffic and circulation for the University and tha city. Frankly, we are unable to assess the full impact of the proposal on any of these concerns, absent more information concerning the size of the proposed building, its precise 'location, access to the building, and the like. Therefore, we are most grateful for your agreement to consult with the University as the county works on plans for the building .11 September 12, 1978 1841 MICROFILMED BY ..Ij JORM MICR+LAB !.

However, we would also like to recommend that the City Council consider two additional appointments to replace Ms. Sue Davison and Ms. Ethel Madison for the duration of their terms on the commission. Commis- sioners are concerned about the necessary, but demanding, time commit- ment needed from each member to achieve the Commission's goals.

Additionally, both individuals have verbally indicated their plans to resign from the Commission. We have contacted Ms. Madison and Ms. Davison apprising them of the Commissions recommendation to the City Council to consider two additional appointments. As the ordinance indicates, a variety of factors are considered in making appointments to the Commission. Therefore at this time, we would also like to review for the City Council the current composition of the Commission. Serving on the Commission are two white females. Ms. Gilroy, a Cath- olic, works with the Iowa Humanities and has a working knowledge of committee functions and group interactions due to her political involve- ment. Ms. Kuhn is a senior citizen with a strong commitment to helping disabled children and a firm interest in senior citizens. Currently, there are two minority women, Ms. Woodard, who is Black, and Ms. Cos- tantino, who is Oriental. Both women contribute a special focus on racial minority issues. The Commission also has two White male members. z Mr. Braverman, who is Jewish and a private developer, has an awareness of business concerns regarding civil rights. Mr. Munenmaier, the youngest member, is a recent college graduate with a focus on labor relations and personnel.

Un- fortunately, because of other commitments, neither Ms. Madison nor Ms. Davison have been able to fully participate in Commission functions. Additionally, both individuals have verbally indicated their plans to resign from the Commission. We have contacted Ms. Madison and Ms. Davison apprising them of the Commissions recommendation to the City Council to consider two additional appointments. As the ordinance indicates, a variety of factors are considered in making appointments to the Commission. Therefore at this time, we would also like to review for the City Council the current composition of the Commission. Serving on the Commission are two white females. Ms. Gilroy, a Cath- olic, works with the Iowa Humanities and has a working knowledge of committee functions and group interactions due to her political involve- ment. Ms. Kuhn is a senior citizen with a strong commitment to helping disabled children and a firm interest in senior citizens. Currently, there are two minority women, Ms. Woodard, who is Black, and Ms. Cos- tantino, who is Oriental. Both women contribute a special focus on racial minority issues. The Commission also has two White male members. z Mr. Braverman, who is Jewish and a private developer, has an awareness of business concerns regarding civil rights. Mr. Munenmaier, the youngest member, is a recent college graduate with a focus on labor relations and personnel.

Many more interested parties, whose names do not appear on the attached letters, have also contacted us. There is a very definite need in Iowa City for the type of housing we are proposing. These units have been designed for the retired or semi -retired people who do not want to live in an apartment, but are unable or no longer enjoy maintaining a single family residence. These people need the security of close neighbors, but still enjoy their own privacy. They still enjoy gardens and green areas, but don't want the responsibility of snow removal, painting,lawn care, etc. We would request that you give your approval to this area and give these people the opportunity of choice.
