`I
Physical characteristics: The site slopes dramatically from
the northwest corner to the east
property line. The eastern half
of the tract is wooded.
BACKGROUND
On January 19, 1987, the Council adopted the ordinance approving the prelimi-
nary Planned Development Housing (PDH) plan for Meadow Ridge, an undeveloped
8.11 acre site located in northern Iowa City. The Council also passed the
resolution which approved the preliminary Large Scale Residential Development
(LSRD) plan for this proposed development. The applicant intends to con-
struct 15 residential condominium dwellings on the tract.
The topography of this site varies considerably from the northwest corner to
the east property line and vegetation covers the eastern half of the tract.
The developer proposes to construct the 15 condominium dwellings in three
clusters on approximately 3 acres of meadow land in the western portion of
the tract. The balance of the 8.11 acre site, characterized by steep wood-
lands and flat wetl.ands, is to remain undeveloped common area and is to be
used and managed by the members of the Meadow Ridge Condominium Homeowners
Association. The developer intends to begin construction of these multi-
family dwelling units in spring, 1987, and to complete the project in fall,
1987.
The ordinance enacted in November, 1986, amended the Planned Development
Housing Overlay (OPOH) Zone to permit administrative approval of final PDH
plans. The ordinance regulating approval of final Large Scale Residential
Development plans, however, does not permit administrative review of LSRD
plans. The final PDH plan for Meadow Ridge will be reviewed administratively.
The LSRD plan, however, is forwarded to you for consideration and recommenda-
tion to Council. The following discussion addresses only the final LSRD plan
for Meadow Ridge.
ANALYSIS
The concept proposed in the final LSRD plan for Meadow Ridge does not deviate
substantially from. the preliminary plan which has been submitted and
approved. The only variation in the arrangement of the structures that is
suggested in the final plan is.that units 4 and 5, shown as mirror images of
one another in the preliminary plan, now have identical footprints. While
the preliminary LSRD plan reflects a proposed building height of 12 feet, the
final plan indicates that the buildings will be 13 feet to 19 feet high.
These dimensions are well under the 35 foot maximum building height permitted
in the underlying RS -12 zone and are not expected to compromise the
single-family atmosphere of this development.
In reviewing the final plan for this development, the Fire Department has
indicated that the clustered arrangement of the buildings proposed by the
applicant does not satisfy the access requirements specified in the Fire
Code.
Section 10.207(b) of the Fire Code (1985 Edition) indicates that "fire appa-
ratus access roads shall be required for every building. hereafter constructed
when any portion of an exterior wall of the first story is located more than
150 feet from fire department vehicle access." Only the exterior walls of
303
3
the first story of Unit 7 satisfies this requirement. The entire rear fa-
cades of eight of the units are not within 150 feet of fire vehicle access
and portions of the rear facades of six units do not satisfy this specifica-
tion. When conditions prevent the installation of an approved fire apparatus
access road, the regulations allow the Fire Chief to permit the installation
of a fire -protection system.or systems in lieu of a road, provided the system
is not otherwise required by the Fire Code or any other Code. The final plan
for Meadow Ridge must be amended to reflect compliance with this regulation.
the While 30 off-street parking spaces, located in four parking areas adjacent to
develop-
ment, thetfinaleplanwere reflectsosed in provisi provisions fore 35 parkingian for spaces.thThedgeneral
arrangement of the parking areas, however, has not been affected by this
amendment. An earthen mound, in lieu of a planting screen, is proposed for
the two parking areas on the southwestern portion of the site to screen these
parking spaces from adjacent residential uses. The final LSRD plan for
Meadow Ridge satisfies the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance which govern
parking area trees, right-of-way trees and trees for residential purposes.
Access
to the
be refected on the plan.
Legal documents ts bmitted byatheeapp applicant have nt basin dbe been revlte ed by staff. To
date, revised documents have not been received.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that consideration of the final LSRD plan for Meadow Ridge
be deferred but that upon resolution of the deficiencies and discrepancies
listed below, the plans be approved.
DEFICIENCIES AND DISCREPANCIES
I. The plan must be revised in conformance with the Fire Code regulation
governing fire apparatus access roads.
2. Access to the stormwater management basin should be reflected on the
plan.
3. Revised legal documents must be received and approved by the City.

ANALYSIS
The plat shows an easement for
telephone, electricity and gas
services.
Police protection is to be pro-
vided by Johnson County. Fire
protection will be provided by
the Tiffin Fire District.
The site is accessible to vehicu-
lar traffic from Highway 1 and by
a private street.
The terrain of the site slopes
from a low point in the north-
western portion of the tract to a
high point on the tract's south-
western border.
On April 11, 1985, the Johnson County Board of Supervisors approved the
preliminary and final plat of Donohoe Subdivision, a
22.subdivision. The applicants, Douglas and Yvette Yansky, have purchasedwLotoI
of the Donohoe Subdivision and proposeto subdivide this five acre tract into
three lots which range in size from 1.24 acres to 1.62 acres.
The five acre, flag -shaped parcel is zoned CH, Highway Commercial, and the
existing building shown on Lot 1 of the preliminary plat for Yansky's Subdi-
vision is occupied by the Yansky Auto Repair business. Commercial uses are
contemplated for the remaining two lots of the subdivision.
The
proposed subdivision is located in Area 1 of the Fringe Area Policy
Agreement between Johnson County and Iowa City. No annexation of this area
is anticipated in the three year review period provided for in this agree-
ment. Because the implementation measures specified in the agreement for Area
1 denote that subdivision of land within the two mile extraterritorial juris-
diction must conform to City Rural Design Standards, these standards are
prescribed for this subdivision.
A 50 foot access easement which currently
1985. The applicants' serves Lot 1 of the proposed subdi-
vision was authorized with approval of the Donohoe Subdivision in April,
intentions to extend the 50 foot wide right-of-way to
serve Lots 2 and 3 is reflected on the preliminary and final plats.
In a report dated February 11, 1985, to the Johnson County Zoning Commission
and the Board of Supervisors regarding the Donohoe Subdivision, county staff
advises, given the residential zoning along Highway 1 and Highway Commercial
zoning for the southern portion of the Donohoe Subdivision, and in an effort
to limit direct access onto Highway 1, that an "...interior road system would
seem necessary and advisable." An extension of the alignment of the proposed
right-of-way to serve adjacent parcels to the east could serve this need.

Re: CZ -8614A. Bright Rezoning
An application has been submitted b
residential home sites comprising 15yacres sinpthe hen county fromht to eq -le five (5)
tural to RS, Residential Suburban. The properties are located approximately
1.6 miles northeast of Iowa Cit ( Agricul-
tural

i On July 24, 1986, Mr. Bright appeared before the Planning and Zoning Commis_

reat q Area found the
residential developments. Prior to appearing before thelicCity tCouncil,urthe
applicant requested that his application be deferred pending outcome of the
new proposed Area 4 policy that would permit limited residential development.
In October 1986, the City Council and Board of Supervisors amended the devel-
opment policy for Area 4 of the Johnson County/Iowa City Fringe Area Policy
Agreement. (See attached.) According to the new policy, residential opment would be permitted at a density of one (1) dwelling unit per three (3)
acres for properties fronting on or having access toRapid Creek Road subject
to performance standards. Mr. Bright is requesting RS zoning to per the
developme4.9 nt of a five (5) lot residcreential subdivision having lot sizes rang-

of the five (5) lots within the proposed subdivision. As submitted, the home
sites are all slightly less than three 3)
acres should be corrected before the property isrezoned in Review theeficienc
subdivision will take Place at the next regular Commission meeting.
As noted above, the amended policy includes reference to performance stan-
dards as a measure to evaluate the appropriateness
along Rapid Creek Road. The new policy of residential development
of
that "residential growth
along Rapid Creek Road will be guided by performance standards designed to:
I. Keep County road maintenance costs and other services at an acceptable
level;
2. Preserve the rural character of the area;
3. Conserve prime agricultural land for farm use;
4. Minimize conflict between residential development and existing farm uses;
and
5. Allow for the protection of environmentally sensitive areas, such as
steep slopes, wetlands and forested areas."
Johnson County's evaluation of this request is included in the attached staff
report dated February 27, 1987. From information available to staff, it
appears that the subject rezoning is in substantial compliance with the Area
4 policies and standards. The subject rezoning will not, in staff's view,
diminish the established rural/agricultural character of the area. The
applicant proposes to establish a five (5), large lot, subdivision with lot
sizes ranging from 4.9 to 7 acres. The development will be located approxi-
mately one-quarter (1/4) mile south of Rapid Creek Road, and due to topo-
graphical conditions will be separate and distinct from adjacent properties
and not visible from Rapid Creek Road.
The site is comprised of four (4) soil types of the Fayette silt loam soils
type. Only one (1) of these soil units is rated by the U.S. Soil Conserva-
tion Service as Prime Farmland. This soil unit comprises a small portion of
the total site.
As previously mentioned, the site is topographically distinct from adjoining
agricultural properties. Staff does not feel that a large lot subdivision in
this setting will diminish or conflict with the continued use of surrounding
agricultural uses.
The site does possess some steep slopes ranging from 2% to 25% with no por-
tion subject to flooding. Each of the five (5), three (3) acre home sites
are situated on the lots so as to result in minimal disruption of the natural
environment.
Staff does not have information to assess the impact the proposed rezoning
will have on County road maintenance costs or the provision of other County
services.
The adopted revised policy for Area 4 states that amendment of the County
Zoning Ordinance will be required to implement the policy. The existing
ordinance requires a minimum lot of 40,000 square feet for all development
not served by public sewer and water. This requirement holds for all resi-
dential zones. It is only in the policy, therefore, that the three acre
minimum lot size is mentioned. Without an amendment to the County Zoning
Ordinance, it is unclear to the City staff how the County can ensure that
development does not take place at a higher density. A rezoning action of 3
acres from A-1 to RS will permit development accordin to the ordinance of
three single family residences on each acre. A ioug r, rig un ers ands
that only one residence can be built on the three acres, future owners of the
site may feel that they have a right to develop the property further because
of the language in the Zoning Ordinance. Without transferral to the ordi-
nance of the policy expressed in the agreement, we are concerned that confu-
sion will exist, as time goes on, as to what is the permissible level of
development in this area.
3 Vs
f

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Although this zoning request does not appear to be inconsistent with the
intent of the Area 4 policy, the staff recommends the Commission and the city
Council advise the Board of Supervisors to defer the rezoning action until
adequate provisions have been made in the County Zoning Ordinance to clarify
the development potential on the rezo
property.

GENERAL INFORMATION
1. This booklet is provided for general information and will serve as
guide for applicants, tenants, landlords and administrative personnel.
The Iowa City Housing Authority (the ICHA) was established in accordance
with Chapter 403A Code of Iowa and is a separate autonomous non-profit
organization. Resolution No. 915 designated the City Council to act as
the Housing Authority. The Council is assisted by a seven -member Housing
Commission (Resolution No. 1109) appointed by the Mayor with Council
approval to study and advise the Council on housing matters. The City
Manager as the chief administrator is responsible for the administration
of the program. The Housing Coordinator of the Assisted Housing Division
in the Housing and Inspection Services Department is responsible for the
day-to-day operation within guidelines and policies adopted by the City
Council.
3. The Housing Assistance program is designed to assist low-income fami-
lies/persons in obtaining clean, decent, and safe housing. The success of
the program is dependent upon the cooperation of all those directly
involved, (i.e. Real Property Owners and Managers, Tenants, Administra-
tors, Commissioners and Members of the Housing Authority.) To assure the
success of the programs, the following Statement of Policy is issued:
STATEMENT OF POLICY
"The Iowa City Housing Authority shall not discriminate because of race,
color, sex, creed, national origin, age, handicap/disability or source of
income in the administration of the various Assisted Housing Programs
under its jurisdiction. Those programs, outlined herein, will be admini-
stered pursuant to Chapter 403A Code of Iowa, Annual Contributions
Contracts between the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the
Iowa City Housing Authority, Federal Regulations as they now exist and
any changes that may be published, local Codes and Ordinances and the
criteria established herein."
4. The United States Housing Act of 1937 and subsequent changes thereto, as
implemented in the various chapters of the Code of Federal Regulations
and published in the Federal Register, set minimum conditions of eligi-
bility for assistance. Nothing in the Department of Housing and Urban
Development regulations, state or local rules/regulations is intended to
confer on any individual an entitlement to housing assistance. The rules
have been amended to make clear that nothing in the rules is intended to
"confer on an applicant for participation any right to be listed on the
ICHA waiting list, to any particular position on the waiting list, to
receive a certificate or to participate in the ICHA's program." The
foregoing sentence shall not be deemed to effect or prejudice any
judicially -recognized course of action. Nothing in these procedures
precludes anyone from exercising other rights if it is believed they are
being discriminated against on the basis of race, color, sex, creed,
religion, national origin, age, handicap/disability or source of income.

PART II
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
This part contains a brief narrative description of the programs administered
by the Iowa City Housing Authority (ICHA). Each program is administered in
accordance with the Annual Contributions Contract and Federal Guidelines
issued for that program. Detailed differences will be found in the various
parts of this booklet.
A. Public Housing.
Under this program the units are owned and operated by the Iowa City
Housing Authority. Construction was financed by the Federal Government
and, by Cooperative Agreement and an Annual Contributions Contract, the
Housing Authority controls and operates the program. Rent paid by the
tenant body .is utilized to cover all operating and maintenance costs,
taxes and insurance. The Housing Authority takes applications, determines
eligibility, establishes priorities, selects tenants, assigns units and,
when necessary, acts to terminate tenancy. Tenants pay 30% of adjusted
income, minus appropriate utility allowances, for rent. A separate
application must be made for this program. A waiting list is main-
tained.
B. Section 8 Existing Housing Assistance Payments Program,
The Iowa City Housing Authority administers two programs under the
Section 8 Existing Housing Assistance Payments Program, i.e. Section 8
Certificates and Section 8 Voucher's. Income guidelines for participati-
on, housing quality standards and lease requirements are the same for
both programs. Specific differences are noted later in this document.
Under this program eligible persons/families receive rental assistance in
existing, privately -owned dwelling units. The unit must meet Section 8
Housing quality Standards and the owner must be willing to participate.
The unit may be located in Iowa City, University Heights, Coralville,
Tiffin, Hills, Riverside, or the unincorporated area of Johnson County.
The Housing Authority receives applications, determines eligibility,
establishes priorities, issues certificates of eligibility or vouchers,
approves leases between owner and tenant, inspects units, and enters into
Housing Assistance Payments Contracts with owners. Please note, it is the
Certificate Holder who selects the unit, and the owner who selects the
tenant. The owner enforces the lease and, if necessary, takes action to
terminate tenancy.

Part VII
Appeals/Grievance/Informal Review/Hearing Procedures
This part sets forth the procedures to be followed whereby applicants/par-
ticipants may be afforded the opportunity to dispute any action or failure to
act on the part of the Iowa City Housing Authority (ICHA) concerning any
decision to deny, defer, terminate or reduce housing assistance under the
Section 8 Existing Program or under the Public Housing Program, to dispute
with respect to any ICHA action or failure to act in accordance with the
individual tenant's lease or ICHA regulations which adversely affect the
individual tenant's rights, duties, welfare or status. These policies govern
all Assisted Housing Programs. Each program is governed by separate federal
regulations, therefore, this part is to satisfy the Hearing required by CFR
882 (Section 8 Existing) and CFR 866 Lease and Grievance Procedures (Public
Housing).
It is important to note the distinction between the status of ana licant
and that of a participant and the specific point at which that status is
achieved or changed.
A. An applicant is a person/family who has made application for rental
assistance and has provided all the information and verifications
required. Applicant status is achieved only after action has been taken
to approve or disapprove the application. Neither the statute, the
regulations nor this document create any property right to assistance or
to ICHA action which may lead to participation. Since there is no
Property right the ICHA is not constitutionally required to provide any
administrative due process hearing on ICHA determinations to grant or
deny applicantparticipation
theopportun ty o�applicant. However,
informal review e
iewofthe CaAwill decisionovide an
denying
assis once to an applicant. A defe_rm-1n_aT—iO_n_TFaZ a family is eligible,
and to list the family on the waiting list, means only that the family
can stand in line for assistance. There is no guarantee that a determi-
nation of eligibility or listing on the waiting list will ever actually
result in issuance of a Certificate or that, if a Certificate is issued,
the family will find a landlord who will accept the family as a tenant or
is willing to participate in the program.
B. A participant is a person/family receiving rental assistance or living in
the ICHA owned housing. Participant status is achieved when a Housing
Assistance Payment Contract between the owner and the ICHA is effective
or the effective'date of a dwelling lease in ICHA owned housing. For a
artici ant the ICHA will provide an opportunity for an informal hearin
o rev ew certain ICHA determinations relating to the in iv ua c rcum-
stances of the participant. The purpose of the hearing is to consider
whether an ICHA decision is in accord with ICHA rules and HUD regula-
tions.

payment, a written notice shall be served and rent must be paid
within 3 days, If not paid within that period, the rental
agreement may be terminated and eviction procedures initiated
(i.e. three day notice to quit, forceful entry and detainer and
physical ouster),
(b) For other material noncompliance, by the tenant, with the lease,
rules and other tenant responsibilities, a written notice to the
tenant specifying the acts and Omissions constituting the breach
will be served. This notice will:

MEMORANDUM
Date: March 2, 1987
To: City Manager and City Council
From: Lyle Seydel, Housing Coordinator /JY
Re: Policies Governing Participation in Housing Assistance Programs Admini-
stered by the Iowa City Housing Authority
The referenced policy was approved and adopted by the City Council on March 12,
1985. Since that date there have been several changes in the Federal Regula-
tions governing the administration of the various Housing Programs. The at-
tached policy has been updated to include all current changes and is submitted
for adoption by resolution March 10, 1987. The Housing changes
ion has reviewed
the policy as submitted and recommends its adoption. The revised policies have
been prepared showing the changes in its
TYPE. For your convenience a brief
summary of the changes follows:
A. A new program has been implemented and incorporated. The Section 8, Exist-
ing Housing, "VOUCHER PROGRAM" is now in operation. The guidelines for
tenant eligibility and dwelling unit standards are the same. The signifi-
cant difference between the Section 8 certificate and the Section 8 voucher
program
isubsidy
based is aAYMENT TthRtrrhhecost of theunit.TheoucherPogramwas adoptedwithe Purpose
increasing the housing choice and reducing costs to the federal government.
to The subsidy is "PORTABLE" meaning once ere issued, a voucher may be transferred
limits another
the number housing
favouchers thathmay be transferred toin the United a15% of0the ptotal
units authorized. This is within the federal guidelines. New terminology is
prevalent throughout the document. This is based on the adoption of the
voucher program. The administrative fee has been reduced from 7.65,'
(certificates) to 6.5% (vouchers) of the two-bedroom Fair Market Rent.
6. An added definition of significance is
placement. "Displaced" meaning physical dis-
L. Incorporated into the policy is the idea that any Family that contains E
Disabled/Handicapped member qualifies that Family as an Elderly Family.
This permits medical deductions and a $400 exemption from income.
D. Present policy, as written, requires documentation of citizenship. This was
adopted in 1985 based on the proposed HUD rules which were later success-
fully challenged in court. Instructions were issued to prohibit any Hous-
ing Authority from denying assistance based on the lack of documentation of
citizenship. This deals more with illegal aliens and has been no problem
here in Iowa City. A non-resident student alien is still not eligible for
rental assistance.
3SS
__T
z
E. The definition of "single person" and their eligibility for rental assis-
tance have been the subject of much discussion among the staff and the
Housing Commission. The Housing Commission reviewed this portion carefully
and recommends that the definitions be stringently applied.
F. The allowance for tenant -furnished utilities has been reformatted for ease
in use; the number of different schedules has been reduced from six to two
and the allowance has been updated.
G. With the exceptions noted above, the policy statement has no major devia-
tion from the present policy.
I will attend the informal session on March 10 and will be happy to answer any
questions concerning this document.

Date: March 5, 1987
To: City Council �p
From: Patt Cain, Economic Development Coordinator�j"
-I
Re: Iowa Community Economic Betterment Account Application for A-JEM
Company, Inc.
The City has been asked to submit an application to the Iowa Community Eco-
nomic Betterment Account (CEBA) program on behalf of A-JEM Company, Inc. This
memo provides background information on the company and describes the pro-
posed project.
THE COMPANY
A-JEM was formed in 1985 to design, develop and manufacture electronic de-
vices for the computer/telecommunications and consumer industries. The
company intends to focus on research and development of new products, with
manufacture of items on a selected basis supplemented by subcontracting to
handle peak production periods.
A-JEM's first product is "Inter -Link," an interface device that allows con-
nection of electronic key telephone systems to office communication equip-
ment, such as modems, dialers and recorders. Inter -Link is now being
produced and sold. A prototype of the company's second product, a
"Sequencer" designed to save an estimated 35% of the energy costs of operat-
ing fluorescent lighting, is now being tested. Other products are in earlier
stages of development.
The company is now located in the University of Iowa's Technology Innovation
Center and employs five persons. If an application to the CEBA program is
successful, A-JEM has committed to moving its expansion within Iowa City. A
letter from the company's general manager is attached.
THE PROJECT
A-JEM is ready to expand its production of Inter -Link to an ultimate capacity
of 5,000 units per month. This growth will require additional equipment and,
in the fall of 1987, a move into a facility that will accommodate this pro-
duction level.
With this expansion and continued operations, employment is projected to
increase by more than 100 full-time employees by the end of 1989. Most of
the employment increase will be production workers, with a few added adminis-
trative and technical positions.
3n
n1�
E
According to A-JEM's projections, the company will need approximately
$150,000 from the CEBA program. The funds will be used primarily for pur-
chase of equipment (computer system, work stations, production and testing
equipment). Any remaining CEBA funds will be used for working capital.
Other funds for the proposed expansion will come from the Iowa Product Devel-
opment Corporation, equity investment, and the Iowa New Jobs Program.
Additional sources of funding are still being considered. As in previous
CEBA applications, the City will contribute the administrative costs for the
CEBA program's processing, monitoring and reporting requirements.
NEXT STEPS
If Council agrees to support the expansion of A-JEM as outlined, staff will
continue to develop an application for submittal to the Iowa Department of
Economic Development for consideration by the DED Commission at its meeting
on April 9. The financial package is still not complete, however, and an
application will not be submitted unless and until all financing sources have
been committed to achieve a competitive application.
Adoption of the resolution on the agenda will authorize submission of an
application. Anddre Peery, A-JEM General Manager, and I will attend the
Council meeting on March 10 to answer any questions on this item.

410 E. Washington St.
Iowa Citvp Ia. 52240 SUBJECT side walks at 322 E. Bloomington St.
Members of the Council;,
This letter is a protest of the side walk repair at the above address. Upon
receiving the first letter from the city I made a phone call and asked about
the problem. I was told that the walks were marked that needed repair. There
was no markings of any kind on these walks as I made numerous trips up there
to see just what the city empboyees wanted.
Tnere was a meeting between Ms. bennet and my self last week and she claims she
put res on the ones to be replaced. The only time that any orange paint appeared
on these walks was just a few days before they were taken out and the contractor
replaced them. I think this lady was running around with a can of paint and
marked so many that she probably really doesn't know what walks were marked.
I wish to state that had there been any markings I would have had some one up
at this address to determine if the walk was bad enough to warant replacement.
I also at this time could have gotten an estimate of the cost which I was
certainly interested in. To put it very bluntly I am getting a bit sick of
being badgered by the city of Iowa City.
Sincerely yours.
�� �,-�L.
H. E. Carroll.
P. S. There was a defrost system in these walks which the city has destryed
with there breaking up of the concrete. Bennit claims it wasn't hurt but I
think even the city council knows you cant break out parts of a walk and
still have the plastic tubing in tact.
