Dear Mr. Atkins:
'
I appreciated hearing that the city is considering support of
-
- ---legislation whichprovides for.a_setback or, buffer strip along
-
ri Vers to reduce the contamination in our state's surface waters. ''
' �i
•^
There "is no question that the contamination of*surface waters by
11
,
n
agricultural activities is a major cause of the inability of al-
most all of our lakes rivers and streams to fully ,meet the qual''-
,�
<
'
ity criteria which they must satisfy to support the uses for
which they have been designated.
j+I
c
-.r-
- i have enclosed a report on Iowa's surface water quality which we
,.,.,�;, -••
provided to the General Assembly last year and which provided the
basis upon which legislation was proposed then to deal with this
1'
(
problem:
Many farmers in Iowa already use practices which meet the pro -
4
-posed buffer: strip requirements.. In order for the approach to be -
effective, we would need substantial compliance along the rivers'
� `+`yr ;t „�r.�:;..
.
edge. While. the proposals last year were. all of. one
, i•::;
'
sort, they were a step in the right direction. It will take this
type of action to begin protecting surface waters and to ensure
than riverfront development can be carried out in a beneficial
manner. Because we view this as an important step in initiating
'
a responsibleagricultural control program, we will be asking for
such legislation again in January.
+
The one. issue which seems to bother opponents the ,most is the
suggestion of the taking of the land without any compensation.
Urban:,'citizens already are subject to limits on how they can use
their property. The only arguable difference is that agricul-
tural land generates revenue. Between the possibility for other -
crops row. crops; the possibility of new federal CRP types of
,,,•„
,than
funding for these acres, or some othef means; we should be able
to identify a way to make the buffer strip concept work to every-
'.=+
one's advantage. I hope that the city council will study the
'a
problem further and be willing to become active in pursuing
E
solutioto this matter. I would be happy to offer you help in

expenses an. This L should Induce food, living
expenses (ata day can, laundry), and any l VNM
bills that you have such as loans and Insurance.
Once that is finished, subtract your expenses from
your ktcorre. This figure" should be the mexknum
anourd that you can afford to spend on rent and
ulilltba:
The next step Is to assess your housing
needs. This Involves asking yourself the following
kinds of questions:
1. Where do I wan to go?
2 Do I ward to live In a house or an apartment?
3. How. large aunit do I need?
4. Whet type of fadlNes do I need In the rental unit ;. l
and/or neighborhood? (Wadyr facNMlae, a ploy.

nished unlL a unit new shoppkq or pudic
"ImpoRetlon. eta).
5. What kind of neighbors and/or landlord do I
warn?
Remembor, as you are looking at the want ads
or renal units, to corsidar what you determined to be
your reeds and abilities.
Sources of Rental Housing Information
In locating a rental unit, take time to kok st a
large number of unite. - The folio Nng list of resources
may assist you In finding suitable housing:

4. Signs posted on rental units.
5. Bulletin boards at shopping camera, stores,
laundromats, churches. University of Iowa and
Your place of employment
6. Friends, neighbors, and co-workers.
7. Private commercial ramal agencies. These
agencies offer lists of renal units in Iowa City and
the surrounding areas for a fee. In using their
services the tenant should understand their
Policies. Find out Information such as: 1) the

. based Palm. it you have children, you should grid
Out whether Or gat a rural unit contains isod beeed
palm. This can be done by specifically asking about
lead-based palm when you call to check on the
Rental Permit.
Inventory of the Unit

1118Y - want to. take a written Inventory of the
premises. This Imremory will help you decide upon
the best rental unit it you are looking at a number of
units. The inventory can also be useful it you deride

tion will help you evold a dispute later about the use
of the rental deposit because you will have written

damages that you did not cause.

Rules
The landlord may from time to time adopt rules
describing .the tenant's use and occupancy of the
rental unit According to Iowa law, a rule Is
enforceable only it it Is reasonable; written, and
applies to all tenants In a fair manner. - Rule
changes which work a substantial modification on an
existing rental agreement (such as a rent Increase, or
change to no pat. policy), or are made for the
Purpose of the landlord evading his/her obligations
are not enforceable against the tenant
Walver
A written or oral agreement is a legally binding
contract between the tenant and landlord. This agree.
mem can be changed by the actions of both parties.
This Is called a waiver. For example, n a ramal
agreement prohibits pets but the landlord accepts rem
with the full knowledge that the tenant has pets, then
the landlord may have waived or cancelled that
portion. of the rental agreement regarding pets, If this
occurs, then the landlord may not evict the tenant or
Increase the rem later because the tenant Is keeping i
pets. Such changes or waivers In the rental agree•
mem are dHticuit to prove, it Is best for both the.
tenant and the landlord to write airy changes on the
ramal agreement Itself and then sign their names and
date each change or waiver.
thility Budget Billing Plan
While You rem, you may find that your utility bills
are higher In the winter than during other times of the

Cleaning the unit
Atter a tenant gives the landlord a termination
notice, it is a good Idea to go through the unit and
begin making notes on cleaning and repair tasks that
are needed. Often a landlord will go through the unit
With a tenant In order to help the tenant determine
what must be done prior to moving. f it's possible,
begin the cleaning and repaldng well In advance of
moving In order to avoid a last minute rush to clean
and repair. Remember, it Is a tenant's respon.
sibllity to make sure that the rental unit is In as
good, or better, condition when leaving So it was
upon entering. The amount of rental deposit that Is
Mumed may depend upon this.
Fixtures
Fbtures are basically those things which are Posed
to the rental unit In Such a way that they appear to be
Permanent For example, f the tenant Installs wall-
. to-wah carpeting, that may be considered as a

understanding conceming the condition of the unit
and what amount,ferry, the tenant owes for

as a valuable guide for this purpose.
A written Inventory or the unit should be taken
and then both the tenant and the landlord Should sign
the Inventory and keep copies. f an Inwemory was
made at the beginning of the tenancy, it should be
compared to the exit Inventory to determine the

notice of your forwarding address to the landlord and
request that s/he return your rental deposit This
notice Is a legal requirement that must be fulfilled
before the landlord Is obligated to return the rental
deposit. (h Is a good Idea to give the landlord
written notice, although the law does not require
this.) If the tenant does not notify the landlord of
his/her forwarding address within one year of lermina-
lion, then the landlord may keep the entire rental
deposit
Return of the Rental Deposit

evicting a tenant for violating the rental agreement;
and s) the cost Incurred In relenting the unit If the
tenant failed to provide the proper termination notice.
it the landlord falls to send a written explanation
to the tenant within the 30 -day time Period, the tenant
has the right to claim the entire amount of the rental

Out fA tenant abandons a unit, the landlord shell
make :reasonable effort to re•rem the unit at a fair

VI. LANDLORDS - BEFORE YOU
RENT
Rental Permits
i
�. Before a landlord can rent a house, duplex or
multiple dwelling in Iowa City, the ramal property
must have a current Rental Permit, A Rental Permit
13 Issued when the rem" property meets the require.
Monte of the Iowa City housing code. The housing
1 codes sets minimum standards for the health and
safety of the occupants of the rental property.
In Iowa City, multiple dwellings must be Issued a
j - Rental Permit every two years. Single-family dwellings
are Issued Rental Permits every four years, and
duplexesevery three years. For more Information
concerning Rental Permits and the housing code,
comas the Housing Inspection Services at 356-SI30,
If you live outside Iowa City, you should contact
your local City Hall to find out If your area has a
_... housing code.. In Iowa, all titles with ■ population
Of 16,000 or more must have a housing code and
a method of enforcement'.
Lead -Basad Paint
Landlords, remember that children an be
poisoned by eating lead-based palm. it children
will be occupying or visiting your rental property, you
should act 10 remove this hazard from the premises,
The Iowa City housing code describes the landlord's
responsibilities regarding lead-based paint and the
Housing Code Enforcement Otrice will provide you
with Information.
Determine the Kind of Rental Agreement You Want
Aller you have obtained a Rental Permit, the nerd
step In renting Is to determine what kind of rental
agreement you ward to offer to tenants. A rental
agreement Is a binding contract made between the
landlord and the tenant which outlines the terms
and conditions of the tenancy. Rental agreements
can be oral or written agreements.
With an oral agreement, all terms and condillons
are made verbally. Usually the term or length of the
tenancy is on a month4oanorah bays. As long as
the tenant pays rem and the landlord accepts the
rem, the tenancy C=Inuea In order to terminate an
ora) agreement, one party. must provide the other
Pony with a written 30 -day termination notice (required
by, Iowa law). Although an oral agreement is
legally binding, it provides no protection against
violations of the agreement because there Is no
verification that the agreement exists,
A written agreement outlines the temta and
conditions of the tenancy, Weary and concretey. The
written agreement 8150 presides the best protection
17
because the agreement Is In black and white.
However, a written agreement may not Provide the
same flexibility In termination as does the oral
agreement because the landlord Is usually bound to
the agreement for a specific period of time. Under a
i written agreement, a landlord cannot terminate the
tenancy unless the tenant has violated the terms
and conditions of the agreement. This type of
termination usually requires court anion.
In developing your rental agreement, you should
understand that there is no standard written agree•
mem in Iowa Several kinds of agreements are
available from stationery stores, reaitors, the bar
association and the Iowa City City Clerk's office,

A rental agreement Is a legally binding comracL
It Is negotiable agreement between the tenant and

erable expense and Inconvenience.
In negotiating, the landlord should be aware that
Iowa rental housing laws prohibit the following
provisions in any rental agreement: 1) that one party
agrees to pay the other Party's attorney fees; 2) that
one party agrees to a limitation or any liability; and 3)
terms which would require one party !o waive hisfher
rights under the law. Furthermore, the law states that
If a landlord uses such terms, the tenant may recover
damages of not more than three months' rem and
reasonable attorney fee&
The Iowa law @leo provides that it only one
Party fails 10 Sign a rental agreement that has
been signed and delivered by the other perry, this
does not mean that the agreement is not binding
or is Invalid. If a party pays or accepts rent without
signing the agreement, h may have the same effect
as If both parties had signed it.

In addition to the above disclosure requirements,
Iowa rental housing laws require the landlord to

November 28, 1989
Honorable Mayor McDonald:
Having watched the Council's Public Bearing on the proposed
clearzone amendment I feel Compelled to write this letter,
which I hope you will share with the Council and make it a
matter of record,
'+ I strongly urge you and the Council to obtain recommendation
andapprovalfrom the Federal Aviation Administration in !
writing prior to the Council changing the zoning ordinance. I
Five years ago the Council by hururing to approve the Radshaw
development created a hazardous condition for. the occupants
(citizens of Iowa City) living in those apartments. If the
_
Council would have waited until they had rereived approval
'
from the F.A.A.,(which t}„!v would nevor have gotten)then 1
they would not have been ,guilty of violating the assurance
ar.reement that they had signed less than six months previously. II
It is my understandingd Sf;
w (possibly I stand corrected) the zoning
-I ordinance at. present. was adopted to satisfy one of F,A.A.'s
I requirements for the City to get back into compliance with the71
assurance agreement.•
a yT r+f 1
part'of the agreement was to lengthen runway 6-24 to
Another. +•
the same length 17-35 had been, with the City paying the
h,
Lot costs
,. Once this had, been accomplished then the F.A.A.
;r
had agreed to participate in lengthening 6-24 to 5,000 feet. 1 �i !r
r\1 •, T..
Is the City Council and Administration going to let the.F.A.A.
off the hook.on the agreement? I have been told the F.A.A. ;
requires a 5,500 foot runway and to lengthen the runway to
.5,500 feet part of the hill would have to beremoved. I was !
told five years ago to lengthen the runway to 5,000 feet i ;•'
part of the hill would have to be removed.
Forthe':statement about aircraft today not needing as much I C
runway, I must take exception. The F.A.A. has implemented
full accelleration stop distances for most high performance
aircraft, which increases the n,:ed for longer runways, Ask -
' yourself why was a 5,000 foot runway enough five years ago,
but, now the F.A.A. requires 5,500 feet.
Again I'urgelyou to obtain approval in writing from the F.A.A.
prior to making any changes to the clearzone ordinanaces. The
assurance agreement is in effect for 20 years from the date
1 h that it was signed.

It's been exciting to see the Christmas meal take shape but since
-'
it is our first attempt, it's been difficult to
'
plan or state
concretely exactly how many will attend (I've heard estimates from
50 --
200+)) what population groups will attend; and how we intend
to do this
meal. The answer to the latter question is, of course,
with kind and
r
generous volunteers. Thanks are in order for the
following individuals and teams:
First, many thanks for the exceptional people at lst.
Presbyterian
and. St.. Wenceslaus. Pam Ehrhardt asked Margaret Ping
and Kathy Parrott

of the. St. W. team to switch from their 4th'_

to their third Thursday
position on 12/21. They agreed despite thefact. their .church
didn't have to work on Christmas.. Due to their cooperation, Pam
has

roundedup quite a number of volunteers and food donations for
the Christmas
meal.
