Re: Emergency Generator
Due to a recent system failure, the Police and Fire chiefs reviewed the public safety dispatch
emergency electrical back-up systems. Currently, the Police and Fire emergency back-up is
provided by a 31 year old generator, formerly located in the Police Department parking lot.
After review of the generator, particularly as it can respond to emergency power outage, it has
become clear that this generator can no longer meet our emergency needs. In July, following
a power outage at the Civic Center, the dispatch center was without electricity for five minutes
before the generator could be started and adjusted. The 911 system was dead as well as our
other support radio systems. I believe we need a more reliable system than represented by
the 31 year old unit. Parts for the unit are practically impossible to find.
The two chiefs have initiated a bid specification and procurement for the installation of a new
back-up generator. The estimated cost at that time was $20,000. Two bids were received and
the Cummins Great Plains Diesel Company of Cedar Rapids submitted a bid of $12,800, We
believe this system, which will provide for automatic power back-up as opposed to the previous
manual initiation of emergency power, will significantly reduce the potential for system failure.
I have authorized the Purchasing Division to proceed with the purchase and installation of the
new generator.

Dear Bob:
CITY OF IOWA CITY
In response to your recent letter addressed to the City Council and me concerning the request
for food storage space at the Senior Center, I am taking the liberty of replying. I reviewed the
general request as you outlined, that is the five locations which could potentially provide
additional storage space. While these five locations have not been formally reviewed by the
Senior Center Commission, I strongly suspect there is a significant rationale for each and every
suggestion. You do not, however, know of our current efforts to provide additional storage
space for the Congregate Meals program. Jim Schoenfelder, our City Architect, has reviewed
with the Senior Center Coordinator the current Congregate Meals space in order to determine
whether, through better management of the existing space, additional food storage could be
provided. Bette and he are preparing a report concerning this matter. Hopefully, and the
preliminary indicators would confirm the fact, through better management of the Congregate
Meals' existing space, additional storage can be provided.
As soon as Jim and Bette have completed their work, they will discuss this Issue with the
Director of the Congregate Meals program, in order that he may also have input into the
recommendations Jim and Bette are developing.
I will share with you the information as soon as the report is complete, which we expect within
the next few weeks.

RE: Congregate Meals Program
It is with genuine pride and respect that we acknowledge that we
share in the most outstanding Congregate Meals Program in the
seven -county Heritage Agency area. We are even so bold to.
believe that the Congregate Meals Program provided through our
Iowa City/Johnson county senior Center is the finest in the State
of Iowa. We want this boast to continue to be a valid claim.
But we do have a problem and a challenge to ensure the future of
that claim, as well as to insure that the participants in our
program receive the most nutritious and delicious meals possible.
The Congregate Meals Program of the Heritage Agency limits our
raw food cost to $1.05. That is the figure that has been used
for the last several years and the figure that we hope will not
be reduced in the years ahead, although it is quite certain we
cannot anticipate that figure being increased. Actually, due to
inflation, our purchasing power of the $1.05 figure does
decrease. I am sure that you can understand and appreciate that
reality and the problem that causes our program.
The only way that we can continue the excellence of our meals and
our program is through yet more judicious buying of our raw food
products. Our ability to do this is dependent upon additional
storage space for food products purchased at times when those
products are at their best prices on the market.
While our dining and our kitchen facilities in the senior Center
are excellent, we have always worked under the handicap of a
distinct shortage of storage area. This has been compounded by
the growth of the program.

Iowa City Council and the Iowa City City Manager
Surely in the many spaces in the Senior Center, there are
varieties of areas that would be of benefit to the elder members
of the community if used for such food storage. Such space would
need to be large enough to justify the goal of such storage and
with accessibility to the kitchen allowing the practical use of
such area. We would further encourage the City staff through
their Senior Center staff to make an annual space/use studies of
all assigned spaces and programs at the Senior Center, with
annual report back to the city Council and the Board of
Supervisors.
Respecting the responsibility and authority of the Senior Center
staff, we would like to propose several possible areas that might
be made available to the Congregate Heals Program for additional
food storage and then we would welcome the opportunity to
negotiate which of these areas would be made available for this
most needed use to insure the continued excellence of the
Congregate Meals Program - this anchor program of our local
senior Center operation.
Suggested Areas for Additional Storage:
1. Graphic Arts Room - a city office
2. Golf Room
3. Half of storage room off dining room
4. Build a storage area in southeast corner of dining room
- adjacent to storage room
S. Build a storage area in northwest corner of dining room
- adjacent to Congregate Meals Office

From: Cathy Etsenhofer, Purchasing Agent - Recycling Committee Chair C
Re: Paper Recycling Program Update 'We Recycle"
On August 9, 1989, the City, In conjunction with City Carton, kicked -off the 'We Recycle" paper
recycling program.
Between August 15, 1989 and August 30, 1989, City Carton collected 2,065 pounds of
paper. The revenue of $5.17 does not reflect the true spirit of the program.
1. Three (3) barrels are picked up twice weekly at the Civic Center versus initially providing
two (2) barrels and anticipating weekly pickups.
2. Six (6)I locations collect paper city-wide for recycling; Civic Center, Equipment, Library,
Recreation Center, Senior Center and Streets.
3. 250 desktop trays are being filled around City offices.
4. Public comment has been very favorable. The Civic Center Information Desk operators
receive daily encouragement of the City's Involvement In the recycling paper program
from the public. I have had a request from a nearby small business to bring their paper
to the City's location which I have approved.
5. The Police Department is recycling and maintaining security by offering shredded paper
to the recycle barrels.
6. Janitorial staff has remarked at the decrease in office trashcan refuse collection since
the recycling program began. Employees take their own recycled paper to the recycle
barrels and seem to enjoy the spirit of entering into the recycle program. Our watchful
Civic Center eye reports that even you, Steve Atkins, add to the recycle barrels.
As with all new programs, a few refinements have to be made. For our safety, the Fire Marshal
Informs us that the combustible material must be removed from the building at least once a
day to comply with the Uniform Fire Code. The Paper Recycling Committee is coming up with
an alternate weekly storage plan and upon approval of the Fire Marshal and building officials,
this plan will be placed into use within the next 30 days.
City employees can make a difference and seem to be enjoying the 'We Recycle" program.

DATE: September 28, 1989 �'
SUBJECT: Ferret Adoption Policy _
The Animal Control Advisory Board met on September 27, 1989, to review the issue of
ferrets and whether or not they should be adopted out by the Animal Shelter.
It is because of the unknown factors concerning the lethal zoonotic disease of rabies
in the ferret, and the fact that animals turned into the Animal Shelter have unknown
histories and possible exposures, that it is in the best interest of the public to
continue the present policy of not allowing the adoption of ferrets from the Animal
Shelter. The vote was unanimous of the members present to recommend maintaining the
present policy.
I i
i
Discussion included review of a document submitted by V. Jean Fitzgerald, which
included many facts concerning the history, relative aggressiveness of ferrets toward
humans, and rabies.
The committee further discussed the aggressiveness and facts about rabies in ferrets.:
It wasagreed that ferrets have been domesticated for many years, but the do
5
was, until recently, primarily for rodent control around farmsteads. The domestication
of the ferret
as a companion animal has only recently been the focus, with few breeders
concerned with genetics for developing a docile
more animal. It was agreed that the
aggressiveness issue is mute, and was not used as basis
a for a decision.
- '
Discussion then was held on the issue of rabies in ferrets. Information from
a
telephone call to Charles Rupprecht, Wistar Institute, Philadelphia, was presented by
Dr.
Paul Cooper. Dr, Rupprecht has recently completed rabies challenge studies on
.ferrets. He stated that not too much is known concerning rabies in ferrets,This is
because they are typically
-
caged animals, but if loose and exposed, the incubation
period and latency are
unknown. In other words, it is not known whether or not a rabid
ferret in the
phase of the disease where it could transmit the virus, would die within
five days,
.!I
aswould a'dog or cat. (Some species of animals can transmit the disease
from
their salivary glands, but not have the virus in their brain, and not die from the
disease uniformly within 5-10 days.
-j
Dogs and cats uniformly die during this period if
they have rabies in
the transmissible period of the disease. The 10 -day quarantine
required after dog or bites
1
cat is for this diagnostic tool. This information is not
known at this time for the ferret,) It is
for this reason that the Centers for Disease
Control (CDC) states that a ferret that bites
or may otherwise expose a human to rabies
must be killed, and their brains submitted for rabies examination.
Further, the
American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) counsels against keeping ferrets as
`j
companion animals because of their potential to transmit rabies to humans and attack
human infants. In addition, there is presently no licensed vaccine for use in ferrets,
although one be
I
may available late this year.
It is because of the unknown factors concerning the lethal zoonotic disease of rabies
in the ferret, and the fact that animals turned into the Animal Shelter have unknown
histories and possible exposures, that it is in the best interest of the public to
continue the present policy of not allowing the adoption of ferrets from the Animal
Shelter. The vote was unanimous of the members present to recommend maintaining the
present policy.

Dear Stephen,
Thank you for your letter August 31 in which you
urged my continued support o the CDBG program. It's always
good to hear from you, Step en, and I appreciate your
interest in this program.
You know that I share your enthusiasm for the Community
Development Block Grant program. I often hear from Iowans
who want me to know how valuable CDBG-funded projects have
been to their communities. A range of worthy development and
revitalization initiatives that have helped to meet community
needs have been made possible through CDBG assistance.
The HUD appropriations bill, which has now been approved
by the full Appropriations Committee, holds the status quo
for CDBG funding at a level of $3 billion ($120 million above
the level requested by the President). The House measure
also funds the program at $3 billion, so the level is almost
certain to remain at $3 billion in the final bill that will
be forwarded for the President's signature.
Thank you, again, for your letter and for your interest
in the CDBG program. I look forward to our continued
correspondence.
Sincerely,
Tom Harkin

attractive for the many events scheduled for this fall.
The Downtown Association is asking community groups and
businesses to help in this effort. We will most at 8:00 a.m.
on Saturday the 14th at the fountain in the downtown plaza.
We hope to put in a good morning's work and conclude no later
than noon. We have a number of projects in mind and will do
as many as we have the hands to accomplish.
The Downtown Association and the community would
appreciate your help, and we look forward to seeing you on
the 14th.
very truly yours,

OCTOBER, 1989 FREE LUNCH PROGRAM NEWSLETTER
"Open Door -- Full Plate -- No Questions Asked"
As the Free Lunch Program (FLP) team coordinators can attest
after opening an envelope crammed with documents: I spent the
month of September writing, editing, revising, and word processing.
Team coordinators are receiving an updated Routine/ Information
Booklet (it was one page last September, three pages after our
first revision in February, and is now an eight page booklet) and
a six-page Team Coordinator Questionnaire which is due back by
October 31. I also have tackled the first set of guidelines for
guests and a list of up -coming events which will be posted in the
Wesley House dining room. I also revised the FLP Newsletter Mailing
List for the fourth time and am in the process of writing a grant
to help pay for new FLP storage shelving. Read on...
We Have A New FLP Director
Starting on January 1, 1990, Connie Greenleaf, St. Mary's
current team coordinator and the FLP storage committee chairperson,
will begin her tenure as director of the program. Polly and I are
delighted and so grateful that the FLP will be in the capable hands
of such a high -principled, clear -thinking, and compassionate
individual. Connie has declined the directorship stipend and will
put that money back into the program. Please join us in welcoming
this exceptional person who will lead the FLP into the '90's with
both pragmatism and vision.
Good News
The FLP has been enormously changed over the past half-year
by the influx of government commodities and the shipments of free
M10 -sized cans from our wonderful benefactor, Hawkeye Food Systems.
We have never before had a stocked pantry filled with such varied,
interesting, and delicious products. Teams have been most
enthusiastic and active in using these goods and have literally
been taking box -loads of the stage to supplement their meals. With
our present store of goods, it's easy to forget FLP's "lean
cuisine" times. Recently, a guest reminded me. He said a few
years ago, FLP guests ate canned fish over and over again for a
better part of a year until the cases on the stage finally
disappeared.
Unfortunately, the FLP was not prepared for these food
contributions. We purchased a new storage cabinet in April which
should have been more than adequate if we had not begun to receive
Hawkeye Food System's generous monthly bounty this past summer.
The result has been that we have begun to take over the Wesley
House stage with our goods. As usual, the Wesley House staff has
been extraordinarily patient and generous in sharing their limited
space. However, we can't continue in the present situation and
still be responsible to the shared facility and to our volunteers,
who could easily be injured in the innocent act of trying to take

#10 cans off one of our many precariously -stacked columns
Therefore, we have ordered a brand new shelving system from
Hawkeye Food Systems to be installed some time during the first
week of October. Their equipment specialist worked diligently to
get us the largest storage unit at the lowest price. It will be
capable of handling our hefty quantities of institutional -sized
cans and put some needed order in our storage process.
We do need some help with moving the cans before the
installation and then with the restocking and organization of the
storage unit. The whole process should not take more than hour if
we have a few volunteers. We would be so grateful to hear from a
few of you due to my bad back and Polly's pregnancy which has her
under doctor's orders not to lift. Please call Polly or me by the
beginning of next week if you can assist with the reshelving. We
should know very shortly when the storage unit will be in and ready
to be installed. Thanks.
Up -Date on 1/20/90 Volunteer Meeting
We've added a half-hour to the Volunteer Meeting. It will now
run from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. (instead of to 11:30 a.m.) to allow
for all the planned activities. Here are some of the scheduled
events: Polly and I will present a brief look at our 15 -month
leadership period including a review of the Team Coordinator
Questionnaire results. Connie will present her FLP goals for 1990.
We will allow plenty of time for large -group (and possibly small -
group) discussion on issues that have been targeted on the
questionnaires and brought to the director(s)' attention either
before or during the meeting. Committees can briefly present 1990
agenda. We would like to give a 5 minute Heimlich manuever
demonstration (could we have a knowledgeable volunteer, please!)
and .then spend a minute trying it out -on each other. We will
attempt a group photograph again and we would like to present a
small contribution for the Wesley Foundation to Wesley House staff
members. We hope to have a more generous free period for coffee,
treats, and socializing. At 11:30 a.m., a panel of area social
service leaders will discuss the issue of "Poverty in Johnson
County in the 1990's" and volunteers can learn, through a question
and answer format, how this issue will affect the FLP.
All FLP volunteers, supporters, and members of our permanent
newsletter mailing list are invited and urged to attend this
important annual meeting. Team coordinators will be asked to inform
team members about the meeting's agenda in November and early
December and then complete a tear -off team attendance sheet in the
December newsletter which will be due back to Polly and me by
December 15th.
September FLP Events
- Meal attendance has continued to be high but unpredictable..
A "normal" week for the past two months has included at least one
meal -day in the 70's, four in the mid -80's to upper 90's, and one
/ 7SY
in the 100+ range.
- The FLP was featured in a 15 -minute filmed segment during
Heritage Cablevision's Community Access Week. Producer Bob Hardy
interviewed the 1st Mennonite/1st Baptist/Faith UCC teams on their
8/23 meal -day and Plum Grove's team on 9/07.
- The Johnson County Council on Children & youth presented
Polly and me with a certificate of recognition for our volunteer
work with FLP on September 20. We are grateful for this kind award
and do hope that the FLP does help "in making the world a better
place for children and families."
Polly and I had an informative meeting with Mike Maher,
HACAP's new Transitional Housing Coordinator for Johnson County
on September 11.
Upcoming Events at FLP
The University of Iowa's College of Nursing will again be
sponsoring free Health Screening Fairs for FLP guests. Nursing and
dental hygiene students will provide health information and some
diagnostic testing on a weekly basis from Thursday, October 5 until
the end of the semester. The medical program will be offered an
an alternating Thursday/Tuesday schedule in the hallway outside the
Wesley House dining room. Please offer lunch to these students.
- Jean Keller, attorney at the Legal Services Corp. of Iowa,
will continue to offer free legal counseling to FLP guests on the
first Thursday of each month this autumn (10/05, 11/02, & 12/07)
during the noon meal period.
- Connie Greenleaf wants to get our two FLP freezers in order
before the space -demanding holiday season. She's asking teams to
plan on serving their stored food in October, contributing it to
the Emergency Housing Project or the Domestic Violence Intervention
Program, or moving it to members' home freezers, and to distribute
frozen bakery products from the freezers. This is in preparation
for a Friday, November 3rd freezer reorganization. Please contact
Connie (337-4389) with ideas about the "clean-up and out event" and
to enlist your volunteer services that morning. 'More about the
freezer effort in next month's newsletter.
The Free Lunch Program will be closed on Thanksgiving
November 23). However, THE FLP WILL BE OPEN FOR CHRISTMAS --
Monday, December 25 -- from 12:00 - 1:00 p.m. Food and monetary
contributions, decorations, and volunteer assistance will be
gratefully accepted. Thank you to St. Wenceslaus's team
coordinator, Margaret Ping, and Pam Ehrhardt, First Presbyterian's
team coordinator, who have already offered their help. Maybe some
of the churches could pitch in on this special day, too. Please
call Kathy for more information.

projects and planned agenda for the fall.
Donations
Belated August thank yous are in order for Dan Coffey and
family for a very generous contribution, and to the Little Caesar's
Pizza Co. who served an unlimited pizza feast to 105 FLP guests in
conjunction with the Salvation Army on August 18.
In September, thanks go to the Tri-Delts sorority for
contributing a large salad and to the Newman Center for donated
sandwich rolls. The latter came in handy when the Iowa City
Coalition on Hunger/Wesley Foundation served 102 guests on 9/12.
FLP contributions have been down since the summer. That's why
I'm writing a grant to secure funds for the new shelving unit. If
you know of a community organization, congregation, or company that
would like to contribute financial support or adopt an ever -
struggling charitable institution, please let them know about the
_. FLP.
The FLP did receive the long -anticipated $314 from the
National Student Campaign Against Hunger & Homelessness- in
September. This contribution was from monies raised by the
University of Iowa's Liberal Arts Student Association last April.
We are grateful for this excellent support of FLP's efforts to feed
the hungry and homeless of our community.
Team Coordinator Questionnaire/Routine-Information Booklet
The enclosed Routine/ Information Booklet is your team's only
copy. Team coordinators should keep the copy and then pass it on
to their replacements. (There is an updated copy in the Teambook.)
Could all team coordinators write their zip code in the upper
right-hand corner of the first page of the Team Coordinator
Questionnaire? We want to make sure our guestimates have been O.K.
Team Hospitality. Ideas & News
-Thank you St. Andrew's and Red Cross teams for bringing down
excess bakery products to the Crisis Center in September.
-Plum Grove team member, Janine Havener, had two good serving
ideass pre -count forks instead of plates to get a more accurate
guest count at our meals and try serving generous portions of the
salads and vegetables before the main dish in the food line. This
may help prevent running out of the meal's most important dishes.
-The Hy -Vee on Hollywood Blvd. has requested that volunteers
call and reserve the donated bakery products the night before the
pick-up.
-Welcome, Betty Schutter, new team coordinator for Coralville
United Methodist. Cheryl Stone, the former coordinator, who began
the church's FLP association, has moved to Indianapolis. We wish
her well and are grateful for her generous contribution to FLP.

-Red Cross team member, Thelma Hottel, lost a brown plastic
apron with a pastoral scene on Monday, 9/18 at Wesley House.
Please contact Thelma (338-3267) if you should find her apron.
-Have you used the lovely collection of vases contributed by
1st Mennonite's team coordinator and hospitality committee member,
Marnetta Bradford? They are stored in the supply closet on the
Shelf beneath the coffee pots. Flowers on the serving and dining
room tables are a joyful addition to the meals.
-Jackie Taylor, of the Parkview Evangelical team, has
suggested that teams occasionally prepare special ethnic food for
our guests such as cornbread and greens and Mexican fare.
-We're pleased that the Salvation Army is participating in the
FLP and are proud of their excellent contributions to the Iowa City
area this past year. Their community day center, youth summer camp
for disadvantaged children, and their work at the migrant worker
camps in Johnson County this summer have all been outstanding.
-1st Presbyterian provided guests w/free soap samples on 9/21.
-Thank you to the teams who have been cleaning out the supply
and food closets. I spent an hour on September 22 and reorganized
them again plus brought down a ton of napkins and hot beverage
cups. We should be set for October.
-Can we try this system: Team members can voluntarily bring
the empty milk jugs (stored on the stage) to recycling bins
regularly throughout the month. It's too much for just one
volunteer.
-Do not leave opened juice tins in the refrigerator. They
must be poured into plastic pitchers (and dated on the outside with
masking tape) to avoid an off -taste.
-Where are all the extension cords for the coffee pots?
Please donate any safe extras you have as well as any unused rolls
of masking tape and blank stickers for our new and improved dating
system for left -overs, donated produce, and freezing! Put cords on
the coffee pot shelf in the supply closet and the rest in the
Teambook drawer. Thanks.
-The FLP could really use a small, sturdy step -ladder to
assist volunteers in reaching canned 'goods which will be stored on
the top shelves of our new storage unit. Call Polly or I if you
have a servicable model you'd like to donate.
-'Hope to see other FLP volunteers at the annual Iowa City
Hospice Road Races on Sunday, October 29th. All the United Way
Agencies are excellent including the Iowa City Hospice itself and
our companion social service organizations -- the Free Medical
Clinic, Domestic Violence Intervention Program, the Emergency

ANIMAL CONTROL ADVISORY BOARD
GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES
To provide such recommendations and advice as are required by the 28E Agreement, or as
may be requested by the City Council or City Manager of Iowa City or by the City Council or
City Administrator of Coralville.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN FISCAL YEAR 1989
The Coralville/Iowa City Animal Control Advisory Board functioned as a building advisory
committee for both cities during FY1989.
The Board generated the design and concepts for the new Joint Animal Control Shelter located
at the same site as Iowa City's present shelter. Bids were taken and Frantz Construction was
awarded the contract to be completed during FY1990.
The joint Board then embarked on a community -wide fund drive to add extra improvements
to the new shelter. This fund drive should be the genesis for Increased public awareness and
growth of a permanent endowment mechanism to receive donations to enhance the Shelter's
effectiveness. The Board has been operating on an ad hoc basis during this period,
PLANS FISCAL YEAR 1990
Beginning in September, the five seated members will begin formal meetings, Board bylaws
and operating procedures will be developed and submitted to each City Council for approval.
The scope in general for the Board will be advisory and to serve as a community advocate
for the Shelter.
This joint undertaking Is really a first for both cities. We hope that our success will provide
a model for not only Coralville and Iowa City joint ventures, but also for other communities.

- BOARD OF REVIEW
BOARD OF REVIEW
GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES
The Board of Review Is established and governed by the Code of Iowa, Chapters 441.31 and
441.44 for the purpose of equalizing assessments by raising or lowering individual assessments
as established by the assessor. The Board also makes the final rulings each year on exempt
properties.
The Iowa Department of Revenue & Finance issues to the Board of Review a manual to guide
them in their work along with forms for the original meeting, daily meetings and the final
meeting. The Board must also file with the State Director of Revenue & Finance, within 15
days of adjournment, a report on their session. The Board's meetings are subject to the open
meetings law. Since it is extremely important that the Board keep accurate minutes of Its
proceedings, the Board has a separate clerk to keep these minutes. The Board must include
in their written notice to the petitioner the specific reasons for their actions.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN FISCAL YEAR 1989
The following Is a report on the activities of the Iowa City Board of Review since adjournment
on May 23, 1988:
The Iowa City Board of Review met on nine days during the period of May 1 to May 30, 1989.
The Board received a total of 113 petitions. These have been broken down into classification
along with their outcome, and listed below:
94 Residential
46 Upheld
48 Denied
19 Commercial
7 Upheld
12 Denied
0 Agricultural
0 Upheld
0 Denied
0 Industrial
0 Upheld
0 Denied
113 Total
53 Upheld
60 Denied
In addition to these 113 petitions, the Board reduced 3 residential properties at the request of
the assessor or to conform to neighboring properties of those petitioned.
By June 20, 1989, two property owners representing two total parcels who had filed in District
Court in 1988, refiled in District Court to appeal their 1989 assessments as finalized by the
Board of Review. No new owners filed in District Court for 1989.
There was one case heard by the District Court for FY89, and one case was settled just after
Its July 5, 1988, court date. The results of the case that went to trial were completely in favor
of the Board of Review.

Since the Board of Review hears only protests brought to them by others, there is no way to
predict the amount of work for next fiscal year. But, because next year is not a reassessment
year, the workload Is expected to be less than the session just finished.
Additionally, it is expected that the Iowa Department of Revenue & Finance will be Issuing
reduction orders for agricultural property In Iowa City. If the State orders any Increases In
value, the Board of Review would have to meet In late October to hear any appeals of the
Increases.

Pro ects:
The Iowa City Human Rights Commission, along with three other civil rights agencies
in Iowa, applied for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Type II
component of the Fair Housing Assistance Program. During December 1987, we were
notified that the project we submitted had been selected for funding. Our project is
multi -faceted and includes: two Fair Housing Conferences, a Fair Housing Mobile Unit
used to promote fair housing in all 99 Iowa counties, and a survey which will be
conducted on Iowans' attitudes about Fair Housing and race related concerns. The
project is scheduled to take 18 months to complete. The Fair Housing van was in Iowa
City In April 1989. The conference will be held in the fall.
During the summer of 1987, the Iowa Civil Rights Commission received funding from
the Iowa Lawyers Trust Account Program to purchase software designed to assist those
Involved in civil rights enforcement in analyzing cases that are being investigated. The
Commission also received funding from the same source to purchase the hardware
required to execute this software. Because the Iowa City Human Rights Commission
has a professional staff person, we received the hardware (a Macintosh Plus System,
a Macintosh Hard Disk, and an Imagewriter II Printer) and the software package as well.
The Expert System is being developed under the HUD grant to process HUD
Investigative cases.

Recognizing that there is still a need for a neighborhood park in the Miller/Orchard vicinity, the
Commission requested a current appraisal on the five -acre tract on Miller Avenue. An appraisal
was subsequently received by the Planning and Program Development Department. No action
since that time.
On several occasions, discussed the department's non-resident fee policy, and ultimately voted
to retain the current policy, which is'double the usual fee, but not to exceed $5.00, except in
the case of a swim pass where non-residents pay 50% more than residents.
Reviewed the annual request for CDBG proposals, and voted to request funding for:
Recreation Center dark room and potter's studio accessibility; a new restroom In Lower City
Park; handicapped accessible sidewalks in North and South Hickory Hill Park; and

Subsequently, the department received CDBG funding to make the potter's studio accessible
to the handicapped.

sioners and staff presented a conceptual plan to the Council, and were given permission to
proceed with plans to select a firm for the schematic design phase of this project.
Adopted a one-page survey which was Included in the 1989 winter/spring Parks and Recreation

attempted again.

In an attempt to gain congressional support for the American Heritage Trust Fund, all
commissioners signed letters to each of our U.S. Senators and Representatives. The passage
of this bill would re-establish a trust fund to succeed the land and Water Conservation Fund,
and would provide a source of monies for matching grants to states and local governments
for recreation planning, acquisition of open space, and development of parks and recreation
facilities.
Several commissioners attended the Board/Commission Workshop held in conjunction with the
Iowa Park and Recreation Association's Annual Conference in Ames. Bill Steinbrech was
elected chairman of the Board/Commission Section, replacing Craig Willis who had served as
chairman the previous year.
In discussing Mesquakie Park, it was the consensus of the Commission that it is not a park.
They asked the director to send a memo to the City Manager indicating their feelings, and
asking if other uses should be investigated.
At staffs request, the Commission discussed the pros and cons of placing pinball/video games
in the Recreation Center, both as an added service to center users and as a revenue producer.
It was the Commission's consensus that such games would be inappropriate for the center.

Income policy, as it relates to the department's fees and charges. To date, such a policy has
not been adopted.

GOAL/PURPOSE:
It is the purpose of the Hawkeye Area Council to provide
youth with experiences that prepare them for their roles
in society.
Scouting is an educational movement of chartered partner
organizations, parents and adult volunteers with the
support of the community, organized to provide an
ever-increasing number of youth with growth experiences
based on their individual needs, abilities and interests
so they will:
Feel good about themselves
Live by values on democratic and religious
principles
Appreciate their relationship and responsibilities
to others
Possess sufficient physical, mental and emotional
capacity
While Scouting has broadened its membership requirements
and modified its methods to meet the needs of young
people in an ever-changing society, the BSA's three
original objectives have been held constant over the
years. These objectives help our youth members make the
transition from the world of the child in a family to
the world of an adult. We want to help them:
1. be ready for participating citizenship
2. develop their character by gaining understanding
of self, and
1763

3. gain knowledge of the value of keeping mentally,
spiritually and physically fit.

The basis of the Montessori Philosophy is that the young
child has within him or her the need to put order to the
knowledge she/he has and the need to acquire the other
knowledge; that will. enable, him or her to put order in
the world around the child. The child in the Montessori
classroom has a choice of activities to pursue, within
the area,of the, child's comprehension. The child is free
to progress at his or her own rate of mastery and is not
limited or pushed by the rate of mastery of peers. Early
learning can lead to attitudes which promote a greater
desire and ability in the child in relating to themselves
and the environment. .Fully licensed by the State
