To The Members.of the City Council and the City Manager,
I would like to register my concern about a possible potential problem in
the granting of an Outdoor Service Area to the Wig and Pen Bar.
Our property is on Rocky Shore Drive. We hear all of the noise from
the Athletic Playing Fields and we hear considerable noise from persons
_
using Crandic Park. Noise travels exceptionally well from Highway 6
to our property as well as from the park area.to our residential area.
i -
j
I am in hopes that the Outdoor Service Area to the Wig and Pen Bar will
not pose a problem in terms of noise level to the residents nearby. It is
my understanding that we can request a decible level reading and that action
will be taken if.the noise. level is too high. It is also my understanding
that amplifier equipment cannot be used outside.
I hope that in granting this request to Mr. Harold Brown that you will also
help him realize that there are some responsibilities that he will assume in
keeping the noise level down.
Thank you for your help.
Sincerely yours,

Re: Proposed rezoning south of Mercy Hospital from Residential to CO -1
I am addressing you to speak out against the proposed rezoning of
Johnson Street between Market and Jefferson and Jefferson Street between
Johnson and Dodge and further Dodge, south to the next alleyway. While
Planning and Zoning voted to reject this proposal on May 22, it is sure
to come up again and therefore should be addressed.
I see this as having a detrimental effect on our Iowa City community.
First, by reducing available residential existing units, a total of not
less than 50 units would be switched from Residential to Commercial.
Second, that while CO -1 is being promoted to facilitate doctors'
offices, other uses such as parking lots, clubs, copy services, pharmacy li
and photo studios, as well as laundromats, barber shops, and restaurants
are also allowable. Is this what we are looking for in our residential
neighborhoods?
Thirdly, this will start the "domino effect" by encouraging other
neighboring blocks to be rezoned. You have already seen this in the
recent petition to you from the Credit Union having seen the above
zoning proposal, requesting you rezone Iowa Avenue and Johnson street
corner to accommodate their parking lot.
j
The City should not become the tool of hospital planners at the expense j
of the hospital's residential neighbors. If there is a need for more
I doctors offices they can locate in any commercial district around the i
city. Perhaps it's time to designate Doctor/Medical Parks on available
iland such as Northgate Drive (north of I-80 intersection), ACT Circle, II
north of Mormon Trek between Plain View Drive and Hwy 6, or in Southgate
(Boyrum Street area). In any of these locations no housing units would i
be lost.
Doctors have chosen not to locate in those areas near Mercy already
designated Commercial such as in Brewery Square or on Bloomington
Street. They say that there is not enough parking. Obviously, parking
is the one big consideration that makes life easier for the patients (as
well as the doctors). On a windshield survey taken on May 19 at
Towncrest, fully 1/3 of the cars were from out of Johnson County, and if
you discount those cars owned by the doctors and their staff, probably
half the cars have been driven in just to see the doctor. Mercy boass
that 60% of their patients are from outside Johnson County around
Eastern Iowa.
Rather than there being a demonstrated need for doctors offices near
Mercy, I would say that this is an attempt to cement the relationship
between doctors and this hospital. In the December 20, 1988 journal
"Hospital" it showed that hospitals are gaining in outpatients and
loosing inpatients. Outpatient services can, of course, be filled by
893
any doctor's office. Maybe Mercy should be developing an outpatient
service at the land it owns at 1011 Arthur Street.
Further it is well known that Mercy itself is planning a doctors office
complex on the old Central Jr High lot. Will this development leave
Towncrest empty? Will it leave the neighboring CO-I area empty? If it
is demonstrated that there is this crying need for offices, maybe we
should encourage Mercy to make a very high-rise office complex with lots
of offices and lots of parking, as a tradeoff for not converting any
more land to commercial and for returning the area north of Mercy to
residential.
In another "Hospital" article (Feb 1983), "The obtrusive neighbor," it
was suggested that hospitals might gain more community support by
promoting and. playing a significant role in rehabing or developing
housing units near the hospital, to house staff (such as nurses who work
odd hours and may want to be near the facility), and to better stabilize
their neighborhoods.

Re: Summit Place
On May 18, 1989, the Planning and Zoning Commission formally approved the Summary
Report for Summit Place which is enclosed for Council review. Three minor changes were
made to the draft report which include specifying the maximum number of dwelling units that
would be permitted on the tract and the proposed density of the project; and clarifying the
number of right-of-way and residential building coverage trees that are required within the Land
Use Modification section. Within the Off -Street Parking section, the total number of parking
spaces provided has been specified.

SUMMARY REPORT
TO: City Council
FROM: Planning & Zoning Commission
ITEM: S-8910: Summit Place.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Applicant:
Michael Hodge Construction Co.
Requested action:
Amended Preliminary Planned Development Housing
Overlay (OPDH-5) Plan approval.
Location:
Southeast corner of the intersection of Wrkwood Ave.
and Marcy Street.
Existing zoning:
RS -5, Low Density Single -Family Residential Zone.
Project proposal:
To redevelop the 1,69 -acre site to accommodate
seven (7) condominium units arranged in a four (4)
unit dwelling oriented onto Marcy Street and a three
(3) unit dwelling located within the developments
interior. The applicant seeks the development flexibl-
lity of the PDH zone to enable the clustering of
dwelling units In areas suitable for development while
conserving open space and existing tree stock. The
condominium units vary in building type and use
from that permitted in the RS -5 zone, however,
results in a development density lower than that
permitted in the RS -5 zone,
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Date of Recommendation:
April 20, 1989.
Recommendation: Approval.
Recommended Variations and Rationale: This report is prepared in accordance with Section
36-48(c) of the Zoning Ordinance to substantiate the Commission's findings regarding the
proposed variations. The Commission finds the following variances from the applicable
provisions of the Zoning Ordinance to be consistent with the Intent and purpose of the Zoning
Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan; will result in development more appropriate and efficient
than a conventional development; and is compatible with the neighborhood In which the
development is located:
1. Land Use Modification: It is the Intent of the PDH zone to promote an attractive and
safe living environment which is compatible with surrounding residential developments.
Although multi -family dwellings are not a permitted use in the RS -5 zone, consideration
has been given to reducing the impact of this use on the site itself and to lessening Its
effects on surrounding residential uses. The proposed plan employs the concept of
clustering in which the dwelling units are arranged together in closely related groups
to achieve higher densities in those areas of the tract more suitable for development.
Although the PDH zone may permit the transfer of density from one part of a tract to
another, the maximum permitted density of the underlying zone cannot be exceeded.
Based upon the area of the tract, a maximum of nine (9) dwelling units would be
allowed; seven (7) are proposed. A substantial portion of the site is undeveloped and
covered by many mature deciduous trees. By clustering the seven (7) dwelling units
together in a three (3) and a four (4) unit dwelling, more open space is achieved and
existing trees stock preserved.
The effects of this use modification on the neighborhood is minimized by the
preservation of a significant number of existing mature trees on the site and by a variety
of methods to both integrate the development into the existing neighborhood and to
buffer this use from adjoining land uses. A four (4) foot wooden privacy fence of a
residential scale and design and four (4) foot evergreen hedge located south of the
private drive and along a portion of the east property line are designed to maintain
privacy and reduce Impacts on neighboring properties. According to the Tree
Regulations, seven (7) right-of-way trees are required; over 10 trees are provided. A
total of 26 residential building coverage trees are required and over 40 existing trees
on site are to be preserved. In addition, the existing brick and iron fence on Kirkwood
Ave. is to be restored and accompanied by a new brick and iron fence of similar
construction on Marcy Street. Retention of the brick and iron fence will diminish the
Impact of the four (4) unit dwelling on Marcy Street and obscure the appearance of the
double car garages and drives from neighboring properties. The four (4) unit dwelling
with its orientation onto Marcy Street incorporates a staggered design in which two (2)
of the four (4) dwelling units are recessed an additional 20 -feet. This design, in addition
to a front yard setback twice that required of the RS -5 zone, breaks up the face and
width of the building and better incorporates it Into the streetscape.
i
2. Street Standards and Specifications:
Reduced pavement width requirements: Vehicular access to the three (3) unit
dwelling and to the southern two (2) units of the four (4) unit dwelling will be provided
by a paved 22 -foot wide private drive. The reduction In pavement width from a 28 -foot
local public street to a 22 -foot private drive is expected to have a negligible Impact
upon Its use as a non -through local street. The Commission finds the design and
alignment of the private drive to have no adverse effects on traffic circulation outside
the development. With parking prohibited along the private drive, the proposed
pavement width is adequate to provide for the safe and efficient movement of traffic
within the development. The proposed width and alignment of the private drive is
Intended to minimize the loss of existing tree stock on site without sacrificing traffic
safety. With the three (3) unit dwelling equipped with a fire sprinkling system, the width
and design of the private drive Is adequate for emergency vehicle access,
Sidewalks: The design of the private drive makes no provision for sidewalks which
would normally be required on both sides of a local street. Due to the small scale of
the development, sidewalks are not regarded as necessary, The limited amount of
traffic anticipated on the private drive, combined with the fact that no parking will be
permitted on the drive, and the availability and accessibility of common open space
within the development may serve as alternatives to the use of sidewalks. Sidewalks
presently exist adjacent to the development within the Marcy Street and Kirkwood Ave,
rights-of-way.
WOOF
3. Fence Requirements:
The plan provides for the restoration of the existing brick and Iron fence onKirkwood
Ave. and construction of a similar brick and iron fence on Marcy Street. According to
the fence regulations, both the restored and new fence could not exceed a height of
four (4) feet in the front yard nor be located closer than two (2) feet to the rights-of-
way of both streets. Both fences are located adjacent to the rights-of-way and will be
seven (7) feet in height as is the present fence on Kirkwood Ave.
The Commission finds that restoration of the existing brick and iron fence on IGrkwood
Ave. and the construction of a similar fence on Marcy Street will not diminish visibility
at the Kirkwood Ave./Marcy Street intersection nor of the sidewalk for traffic entering or
exiting from the private drive on Marcy Street. The restoration and extension of the
brick and iron fence should increase the visual appeal of the site and lessen the Impact
of the proposed development on the surrounding neighborhood.
4. Off -Street Parking:
According to the off-street parking regulations, two (2) parking spaces are required per
dwelling unit. The double car garage attached to each unit satisfies this requirement
and provides for a development total of 14 parking spaces. The paved garage apron
attached to each garage is of such a size to accommodate two (2) additional parking
spaces for a total of 28 parking spaces. At a ratio of four (4) parking spaces per
dwelling unit, the proposed plan is sufficient to accommodate the parking needs of the
development.

MAY 30,1989
To the Iowa City Council Members;
About a month and a half ago I became aware of the development
that was proposed for Summit Place. I did some quick checking
to find out as much as Z possibly could about this unique piece
of property that has fascinated many who see it , some for the
first time and others whorfootsteps take them past it daily.
A casual observer could realize that the property has been
allowed to deteriorate to the point where it would take a massive
restoration project to restore the property in line with city
building codes. What would seem impossible or at least impractical j to some is always a possiblity to another and many people felt
Ardenia (Summit Place)was a possibility waiting to happen.
At the initial City Zoning and Planning Commission hearing,
I voiced my concern in three areas: 1.The history of the project j
(you should have recieved one of the mock-up brochures that was
made about the area) 2.The concept of pursuing the use of the
property as a public area, a green space or park with an emphasis
on it's historical nature. The idea bloomed of having a playground
that would be interpretive of the area's history, 3.The concern
about the encroachment and development of co dominiums or multi-
family housing into an area that is uniquely�ingle family homes.
I expressed my concern as an Iowan Citian during our sesquicenten-
nial year, and as a so-called self appointed ambassador for Iowa
City by way of being weekly tour guide at the Old Capitol Museum. 3
Many, many people come through this area and are fascinated by i
it's history, but we do relatively little to promote or preserve) ,-�. i
After addressing those points ,I was pleasantly surprised to be
grested with an outbreak of applause, after which a number of
individuals pledged their support to see if something could be done.
Our time was short, less than a week after the property owner
protested a deferment on the vote by the commission. Admittedly,
that part of the process was somewhat frustrating. It was a rush j
Job to get neighbors organized, a petition distributed etc., but
within just a few days we had over 100 signatures with no�effort.
We agreed that with more time and covering a larger are�a//we would t
not have any problem gathering signatures, maybe we should have
kept it up until this evening, but we realized we were fighting
an uphill battle once the commission approved it against the city
staff's reccomendation and orfe the parks department gave us the
word that it would probably never happen. Therefore we settled for
the next best thing, a development that takes into consideration
the present character of this property, an easement as suggested -
by our group to provide a public space to remind us of this unique
piece of I.C. history, and a building that conforms more to the
present neighborhood. So to this we suggest that if the council
feels it must approve this property development, we suggest Mike
Hodge's plan, as approved by the Zoning and Planning Commission j
be accepted. We ask the council to be a watchdog for our neighbor
hood, to assure that this is a one-time type of development and
that when ever possible they will take the role in assuring the
history of our community is maintained.

j-,- MEMORANDUM
Date: May 25, 1989
To: City Council and General Public
From: Rosemary Vitosh, Finance Director O-V�a (, bZa�—
Re: FY89 Budget Amendments
The notice of public hearing on the amendments was published in the Iowa City Press -Citizen
on May 23, 1989, regarding the public hearing scheduled for May 30, 1989. Council approval
of the amendments will follow the public hearing.
The attached charts provide information on the FY89 budget amendment. Throughout the year,
amendments are submitted by departments/divisions to the Finance Department for review and
approval by the Finance Director and the City Manager. Once a year, in May, budget
amendments are submitted to the City Council for review and approval. State law provides
that budgets must be amended by May 31 each year in order to provide the proper time for
budget appeals prior to the year end on June 30.
The first two charts show, by fund, the final amended budget and the original budget.
Following that are detailed listings which provide Information on each individual amendment
for all carryovers, regular amendments, and uses of the contingency.
Carryovers are items which were budgeted for in FY88 but were not purchased until FY89. The
funding for the carryover item comes from fund balances.
Departments/divisions of the General Fund may request funding for amendments from the
General Fund contingency. The contingency was originally established at $107,792 for FY89,
however, this was not sufficient to cover the amendment funding needs. The contingency was
increased by $120,000 from two revenue sources. A total of $225,812 of the contingency was
appropriated for amendments. Of the $227,792 total contingency, $1,980 is left and will be put
into the pure fund balance.
We were able to Increase the contingency from unanticipated revenues. Actual interest Income
is coming in above our original budget projections due to higher market yields and a larger
fund balance. Uquor profits revenue is above budget because the State revised its payment
schedule to local governments. This created a one-time windfall this year and Iowa City's
liquor profits receipts are 50% above budget.
Additional detailed information is available at the Department of Finance should you have any
questions on these amendments,

Mr. Bob Burns, Chair
County Board of Supervisors
P.O. Box 1350
Iowa City, Iowa 52244
Dear Bob:
In follow-up to our recent conversations as well as referencing my recent letter concerning the
Issues associated with the Nursery Lane condemnation procedure, hopefully the following will
clarify the City's position. After our discussions I understand and appreciate your interests and
hopefully we are all now better advised as to our respective concerns.
The language utilized in my recent letter mentions that Nursery Lane would In effect become
a "secondary" access for the City park. Clearly, a better choice of words would be that this
road would serve as an "emergency" access for the proposed park. At no time was there an

more than happy to Install some type of barrier on the park property so as not to obstruct the
normal comings and goings of the two property owners. The barrier would simply discourage
the access from the south to the park site. As identified in the Zoning Agreement and all plans
being prepared concerning the construction of the park, the major access will be to the north
near Sycamore.

Dear Bob:
In follow-up to our recent conversations as well as referencing my recent letter concerning the
Issues associated with the Nursery Lane condemnation procedure, hopefully the following will
clarify the City's position. After our discussions I understand and appreciate your interests and
hopefully we are all now better advised as to our respective concerns.
The language utilized in my recent letter mentions that Nursery Lane would In effect become
a "secondary" access for the City park. Clearly, a better choice of words would be that this
road would serve as an "emergency" access for the proposed park. At no time was there an
intention that this road would serve the sewage treatment plant and/or the equipment that
moves to and from the plant site, after it is operational. It is our thinking that due to the fact
a major public Investment Is to be made, that Is the sewer plant outfall line, would be
constructed under the road right-of-way of Nursery Lane, an improved road surface and clear
title to the road is desirable to officially affix responsibility for future maintenance. There is also
some question as to ownership and therefore this matter is probably best lett to the courts to
resolve.

Des Moines, Iowa 50319
Dear Governor Branstad:
CITY OF IOWA CITY
In my letter of February 9, 1989, I attempted to outline our concerns with
respect to what I believe to be the serious administrative inequities in the
operations of the State Government. While this is not a complaint directed at
the Attorney General and/or his responsibilities, the circumstances outlined in
my letter of February 9 continue to grow more and more troubling, not only as
we attempt to fulfill the responsibilities of our local government, but also I
�r grow concerned over the public perception of the State Government appearing to
treat a local government in what I believe to be a less than equitable fashion.
Recently, the Iowa City City Council approved a consulting services study to
provide information and expert testimony to, in effect, defend ourselves against
a lawsuit filed by the Attorney General on behalf of the University of Iowa,
challenging the sewer rate structure developed and implemented by the City
Council. This rate structure was developed after significant community
involvement, including the University, and was necessary to fulfill state
mandates from the Department of Natural Resources with respect to upgrading our
sewage treatment systems. Public funds were also used, to the best of my
knowledge, by the University to finance a rate study and now serves as the basis
of their challenge of our locally implemented sewer rate structure. The Attorney
General's office, on behalf of the University, now desires to vigorously pursue
this litigation and the City finds itself in a position, to properly defend this
lawsuit, to have a rate study and expert testimony to substantiate our position.
It can be expected that the cost of this study, even prior to appearing in court,
could cost Iowa City taxpayers close to $50,000. I am unaware of the cost and
the other related expenses incurred by the University to substantiate their
position.
As you will note from my February 9 letter, it would appear that local
governments, particularly those that have large state institutions, find
themselves in a position of being unable to pursue their legal mandates and
provide public services, many of which fulfill mandates of the State Government,
and yet state agencies challenge the means of financing those programs for which
they directly benefit.

matter, some time ago, to the State's Environmental Protection Commission, and
unfortunately were advised that it would be inappropriate for them to respond
in that it was not within their jurisdiction. With all due respect to the
Comnission and I appreciate their obligations to fulfill the policy role for the
State Department of Natural Resources, if we did not fulfill their mandates the
same legal forces would be at work to cause us to do so.
Thank you again for any consideration.

"TBE NEXT FIVE YEARS"
A CONFERENCE ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
When a conference on economic development was first discus-
sed, qt support
purpose was 1) to bring into the economic devel-
opmesystem more people, with greater diversity and
intensity of support; and 2) to arrive at a community -wide
consensus on economic development need and direction. As the
idea evolved, also identified as a goal was understanding by
conference participants of economic development

uded conference was.a success. A broader variety of individuals -
beyond the traditional business and industry supporters -- was
invited and attended the conference. A certain degree of consen-
sus was achieved. Those who attended were exposed to a wide
selection of facts, figures,•pOlicies and history about economic
development. And, they expressed positive feelings and support
toward economic development efforts in the area and toward the
Iowa City Area Development, Group (ICAD) in particular.
SUMMARY
The sessions on the five top
that took placeics differed in the degree of

The other three sessions focused on identifying: issues of

in its economic development efforts; how to further implement our
efforts, is. increased use Of volunteers or more staff; and the
need for strong communication to and from the larger community.
OVERVIEW
The conference began with ICAD President Ray Muston provid-
ing background about the Iowa City Area Development Group's
beginnings, including a historical snapshot of 1983-84 when the
organization began, and ICAD's goals as identified in 1985:
o Rural community participation
o Staff to support information systems, materials
o Local participation in state tax abatement incentives
o Identification of land sites and available buildings
o Promotion of University strengths
o Funding to support a five-year program plan
o Analysis of competitive strengths
o Development of promotional materials
o Existing industry promotion and development
Objectives from that period included identification and
contact of 400 targeted prospects resulting in 20 site visits;
location of five new industries here; creation of 200 new
industrial jobs; development of a program to strengthen existing
industry; and, implementation of an ongoing research program.
I. OUR INDUSTRIAL HASE
Probably the most "popular" in terms of numbers participa-
ting, this session was designed to identify potential problem
areas. For instance, when companies consider where to locate,
what do they look for and where might we come up short? Some
answers: lack of adequate labor•force; lack of available minority
employees; unavailability and/or high cost of housing; a negative
image of Iowa.
Employmant. The area's low unemployment rate and the disadvan-
tage it causes when trying to attract industry was discussed.
Also the misperception the rate gives because of how it is
arrived at -- people not counted in determining the unemployment
rate, the underemployed, how employers hire away from other
employers. The feeling was that there really was a labor force
IF employers were creative: four-day weeks, flex time, etc.
Concern was expressed over difficulty in finding minority
employees and in attracting managerial employees. The image
problem enters the picture here, as potential managers perceive
Iowa negatively. However, if an employer can get the prospect to
visit, that image is overcome. Some solutions might include
recruitment of local graduates, of employees from inner cities,
and of minority U of I graduates; bringing people who have left
Iowa back home; and making use of Job Service. More attention
should also be paid to and greater assistance provided to exist-
ing industries.
8ouming. The groups concluded that a shortage of adequate hous-
ing is developing in the area. Costs are high in Iowa City;
rural communities might offer an alternative.
Intersting quote from the session: "We aren't as good as we
say we are and we are better than we think we are."
Presenters for the industrial base session were Marty Kelly
and Clayton Ringgenberg; recorder/reporter was Verne Nelson.
II. UNIVERSITY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
This session was presented by D.C. Spriestersbach, Bruce
Wheaton and Jerry Burrows; Bob Quick served as recorder/
reporter. The importance of the University and the business
community understanding each other was stressed.
o The University's constituency is the entire state, not just
the Iowa City area. The U of I is ready to help everyone across
i
the state; Iowa City, however, has the geographical advantage.
o There is no reason for businesses to relate to a university
unless its faculty is involved in "state-of-the-art" research.
It is important that the U of I stay on the cutting edge of
research and development and attract and keep top-notch faculty.
o The University is funded to teach and do research, it is not
funded to do development. While research leads to development,
there is a big gap between them. The University of Iowa is
committed to assist and expedite movement/transfer from research
to development of ideas/concepts.

III. OUR RURAL PARTNERS
I
In two sessions presided over by Ann Doyle and Mary Kae
Mitchell, participants -- many from our rural communities --
focused on the advantages to regional economic development.
Discussed were the advantages of rural communities working
together to accomplish a common goal, recognizing that economic
improvement anywhere in the area has a favorable impact on the
entire area. Representatives of smaller communities agreed to
the advantages of geographical proximity to Iowa City. And, they
were heartened that a large percentage of employees working in
Iowa City are residents of the area's rural communities.

The emerging problems of housing (for some communities) and
labor were also identified in the rural discussions. Other
issues addressed included: 1) the smaller communities need for
added employment opportunities; 2) the need for each community
and its economic development group to set goals and to guide and
direct the community in its development efforts; 3) the need for
efforts to retain and encourage existing business and industry as
well as to attract new ones; and 4) concern about the financial
needs of ICAD and the definition of boundaries for the group.
It was generally agreed that developing relationships with
other communities to share experiences was an advantage afforded
by ICAD. Stan Barber was recorder/reporter for the sessions.
IV. INTMWATIONUISH
A perspective of the current foreign investment picture was
presented including trade deficits, importing and exporting, and
midwest location of direct overseas investment in the United
States. Then focus was directed toward the Pacific Rim and
investment opportunities.
Oluf Davidsen, one of the presenters, explained that
Japanese interest in America is sincere, seeking opportunities to
work with us rather than to take over the U.S. He noted that
ICAD's strategy in pursuing Japanese economic development
opportunities is based on current economic realities, with the
objective of investment as well as export of area products. He
stressed the "three Fs" that are necessary to successfully work
with the Japanese: Formality, Facts and Figures, and Friendship.
Group discussion raised the issue of trust of the Japanese,.
ie. WHY do they want to invest here? The need for greater
foreign exchange and for better understanding of Japanese culture
also was discussed.
Bruce Wheaton highlighted the University of Iowa's role in
foreign activities: its commitment to Asian studies; benefits of
faculty/student exchange agreements (bring in business partners
to look around); American universities' technology "opens ::e
doors in Japan" (especially biotechnology and laser research).
Wheaton also expressed his view that we need to establish the
first American university "Center for Japanese Development".
In addition to group discussion, a questionnaire on interna-
tionalism was filled out by participants. Generally they
concluded that, in the future, ICAD's efforts in international
economic development should continue at the present level and its
approach should remain essentially as it is. Some persons
commented upon extending international efforts toward Europe and
China. And several presented suggestions for greater community
involvement in the international arena.
Renee' Jedlicka was recorder/reporter for the
internationalism session.

V. PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP
This session provided an overview of the relationship
between all of the partners involved in economic development.
The history of the development of our economic development group
was discussed as well as the present working relationships
between ICAD's public partners (the U of I, rural and urban
cities, and the county) and private partners (individuals, the
.Chamber of Commerce). It was felt that the relationships between
the partners is currently very good.
Explanation was also given of the other economic development
players -- the Iowa DED, Kirkwood, satellite centers, other
cities, councils of governments, Iowa DOT -- and how ICAD
interacts with them.
The charge to participants in this session was to assess
where we are in economic development and to answer where we want
to go. Focused on were the direction for ICAD, how to implement
economic development efforts and the role of volunteers. The
consensus was that we are at a crossroads and if we decide to
move forward in the current mode, either more funding and staff
is needed, or an increase in volunteer effort is necessary.
Patt Cain and Harry Wolf were the presenters and discussion
leaders of the public/private partnership session; Tom
Werderitsch was recorder/reporter.
WRAP UP
Steve Atkins chaired the wrap-up session. Stating that the
ICAD Board of Directors would be reviewing the input of the
community, Atkins pointed out 1) that the issues of potential
shortages of housing and labor had been identified; and, 2) that
there were operational matters to be addressed in regard to
economic development direction, activities and implementation,
is. staffing, volunteerism, funding.
Atkins said that he perceived "a general sense of satisfac-
tion" in the direction of economic development in the Iowa City
area and of ICAD's activities. Absent information to the con-
trary, he indicated the Board would proceed on that assumption.
EVALUATIONS
Conference evaluations were filled out by over one-third of
the participants. Results of these indicate 36 of the 37
respondents rated the overall conference either excellent or
good. A strong majority found the interaction and/or networking
with others the most valuable part of the day. A total of 133
participated in either the conference and/or the annual banquet:
99 attended the conference, 97 came to dinner.

Dear Mr. yowler,
i appreciated talking with you at your home today about the mater ma:6 .nUua:a
at the post office this morning. I would like to recount it for the record. 1 belie =
that appropriate behavior on the part of city employees is an impor•.ant pubic
relations issue and dzeply influences people's perceptions of our community.
I pulled into a space in front of the post office and noticed a meter maid waik:ns
toward my meter. I picked up the envelope I was to mail from the seat beside
me, got out of the car, and walked to the meter with my wallet in my !-rnd 1 j
read the meter to see that it was expired and that Saturday was a day tr.a:
required money so 1 put a coin in the meter. The meter maid was ri3`i, there,
but said nothing as she punched something into her box. I did not pay much
attention or say anything because there was no reason to do so.
To my amazement I found a ticket on the car when 1 returned from the post
office. I saw her in the next block and rushed over to return the ticket to her. 1
i told her that she saw me pull in, get out, and pay the meter. i asked her to turn
in the ticket because I did not have time to waste dealing with a ticket that should
not have been issued. I handed her the ticket. She said I could appeal it, let the
ticket drop to the street, and drove off.
I returned to the post office and talked to a police officer about the situation and
he was polite and helpful even though the police are not directly involved in meter
ticketing, i returned to the next block and found the ticket that the meter maid
had dropped the street so that I would have the data on it for the future.
I work daily in Cedar Rapids and do not have time to come to Iowa City in the
middle of the day to deal with these kind of matters, but now that I am forced to
spend time on this incident, I want you to know that I would be happy to meet
with you and the meter maid, city council members, or any appropriate city
officials to remedy this situation, and I don't mean my ticket. 1 mean the outlook
and operating procedure that this meter maid has concerning her job. If there
were ever a question about being "over zealous" in the performance of this job,
i I'm sure that my experience will prove that this person has pressed the point to.

Re: Consent Decree
In further investigating the consent decree, and in particular attempting to find out whether we
may have been singled out by the DNR with respect to the issuance of fines, the Director of
Public Works has learned that in the Ames administrative decree, the BOD limits were 50 mg/I
and, in fact, have been exceeded by Ames and yet there have been no fines. As you will note,
our exceeding the consent decree limits were very minor and, in fact, have learned that local
DNR representatives were encouraging the state DNR office not to vigorously pursue this
matter given the significant progress we are making in construction of our treatment facilities.
it Is difficult to determine the motives of the DNR and/or all the other state agencies involved

./lose supervision of Iowa City's new closed-loop
stem has its rewards. For the drivers on US. 6 who make 10 million fewer
ops, the computerized traffic control system saves 42,400 gallons of fuel
ich year.
he signalization project provided Iowa City with funds to conduct a
easibility study and implement the recommendations. The study
evaluated traffic conditions on U.S. 6, a four -lane divided highway. With
commercial development along its right-of-way, the arterial carries an
average of 22$00 vehicles daily.
Despite the heavy traffic volume, the eight signalized intersections
functioned independently. Interconnection was considered loo costly
the great distances separating the intersections. However, the study's
analysis showed that interconnection was well worth the expense.
As a result, U.S. 6 was outfitted with a closed-loop system. Solid-state controllers
coordinate the signals and create a smooth traffic Flow. Due to the close
proximity of the traffic engineering department, the master controller is housed
there. With the system master and the central microcomputer close at hand, staff
can efficiently supervise the city's new signal system.

Iowa Motor Vehicle Fuel Reduction Program
demonstrates what traffic signal modernization can do. Iowa drivers will save mom than
267,000 gallons offuel each year because of improvements made to traffic signals in 19
communities. Cities am seeing a marked reduction in signal-maintenance expenditures.
Fewer accidents am anticipated as a result of the smoother traffic Flows. And Iowans will
experience less vehicle wear and-tear with the decrease In stops and idling. All because of
the improvements made to traffic signals at 306 intersections.
"Because computerized
signal systems respond
to actual traffic, they
maximize movement
and minimize delay for
more vehicles. By
stopping less off en, driv-
ers save gas and time,
produce fewer
pollutants and cut down
on vehicle wear -and -
tear. And whenever
traffic flows smoothly,
accidents are less likely
to occur."

itution to Iowa Motorists
t unique energy -conservation program originated in 1986 when the Iowa General
sembly appropriated 53 million of Exxon oil overcharge funds to the Department of
uuml Resources. The Exxon monies entered the state's coffers when the courts
and that the oil company illegally overcharged consumers between 1975 and 1981.
o make restitution, the corporation paid $2.1 billion, which was distributed to states
in the basis of petroleum usage. States were required to earmark the refunds for
anergy -conservation programs.
Following the Iowa legislature's appropriation, the Department of Transportation
developed a plan for disbursement. It was proposed that funds be granted to cities
for traffic signal modernization projects. The projects were to demonstrate how
new signal technologies improve traffic flow and thereby decrease the number of
vehicle stops and delays. Asa result of the improvements, motorists who had
been illegally overcharged by Exxon would receive restitution in the form of
reductions in fuel consumption, travel time, pollution emissions, and vehicle
wear -and -tear.
Project Selection
The DOT's original proposal called for demonstration projects in 20 cities. Project sites
were to be evenly selected between small cities (populations less than 10,000), modium-
size cities (populations between 10,000 and 50,000), and large cities (populations mom
than 50,000). The proposal also specified that the sites be located in an even geographic
distribution. The widespread distribution of sites would provide the opportunity for
diffusion of the new technologies to a greater number of neighboring cities.
The DOT issued a request for proposals In February 1987. Forty-nine proposals were
received from 33 cities, Where competing projects met the distribution criteria, selection
was made on the basis of potential energy savings. Twenty -cine projects were identified
for a total package of $3 million -52.5 million of which was funded by Exxon monies and
$5 million by local sources. Three projects were located in each of DOT's six districts—
one in each of the population groupings. In addition, throe "At Large" projects were
selected. However, two projeets were rejected because the sites failed to meet the warrants
for traffic signals as defined by the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
Types of Improvements
Installation of the equipment began In June 1987. In all projects, existing equipment was
upgraded. For most, this Involved replacement or modification of the signal -control
equipments' softwam and hardware. For some, it included the replacement of signal
hardware such as signal heads, mast arms, and poles. Closed-loop control systems were
installed in 10 cities. Closed-loop provides two-way communication between a central
microcomputer and the signalized intersections. In four cities, time•base coordination
was implemented to synchronize signalized intersections along an arterial. Three cities
:onverted signals at isolated intersections to full -actuation, thereby making the traffic
!ontrol responsive to vehicles from all directions. In Des Moines, a variety of improvr
rents were made. Sioux City's project involved the retrofit of the downtown's signal
nntrol network with modern computer control.
lenefit-Cost Analysis
lefore and after the improvements were implemented, traffic engineers from Johnson,
Irickeli, and Mulcahy and Associates, Inc, performed studies at each site to determine
chicle stops, traffic delay, and fuel consumption.
9Go

At sites involving isolated intersections, anon -street surveydeterenined the number of
can stopped and the delay time experienced. For sites involving arterials (in time -base
coordinated or close -loop projects), the consultant used an instrumented car to record
travel time, stops, and delay time. Relationships between fuel consumption and travel
time, delays, and stops, were used to compute the amount of fuel consumed before and
after each project's installation.
Based on these studies, the benefit -cost analysis was calculated to determine each projects
economic effectiveness. The economic evaluation considered the stream of benefits and
costs that will result from the equipment over its Ie -cycle. The life of the traffic signal
equipment was assumed to be 15 years.
The costs used were the sum of the expected operating and maintenance costs and the
annualized equivalent capital costs. The capital cost is the annual cost of owning the
traffic signal equipment. A seven percent interest rate was used.
The benefits resulting from the signal improvements are reductions in vehicle hours
of travel time, number of stops, and fuel consumed. Annual benefits are the sum of
the total decrease in travel time, fuel consumption, and vehicle idling. The cost of
fuel was assumed to be $1.00 per gallon. Travel time was assumed to be worth the
current minimum hourly wage of $3.35 per hour. The cost of an hour of vehicle
idling equals 50.313. To arrive at total benefits, the reduced fuel consumption �-
was added to the values of delay reduction and travel -time savings.'
The benefit -cost ratios for the 19 projects ranged from 0 -to -1 to 5558-to4. Nine
projects resulted in benefit -cost ratios better than 10 -to -1; six of these were above t-
20 -to -1.
In general, projects in which isolated intersections were upgraded to full -actuation
resulted in lower benefilcost ratios. Primarily, this is because Isolated intersections
usually experience lower traffic volumes.In addition, the upgrade is intended to eliminate
long delays and not necessarily to reduce stops.
Projects involving systems of several signals on an arterial generally resulted in higher
benefit -cost ratios. These projects usually were implemented in larger communities which
have higher traffic volumes. As a result, the benefits are multiplied by mom motorists.
Also, some cities had timing plans with no accommodations for progressive travel
through a series of intersections. Significant benefits usually result from the installation of
new timing plans and equipment which accommodate progressive movement. However,
similar projects Involving several signals on arterials experienced lower benefitcost ratios.
In these cases, the communities already kept signal timing plans coordinated, thereby
allowing progressive movement despite outdated signal equipment.
Technology Transfer and Marketing
In July 1988, the DOT contracted with Business and Engineering Extension at Iowa State
University to provide technology transfer and marketing programs. Seven workshops on
traffic signal equipment and maintenance were conducted in the winter and spring of
1989. The workshops were presented to 155 participants at five Iowa locations. A 20 -
minute training tape, slides, and a tabletop display were produced as teaching aids.
Technical newsletter articles were distributed. Extension staff made presentations at
several professional meetings and at seminars for local governmental officials.
To promote the project, Iowa Signals Go was created. The program included a press
conference, press packets sent to media, a tabletop display and booklet, radio and TV
public service announcements, and a 10 -minute promotional videotape. Extension staff
discussed the program on radio and TV programs throughout the state.
