Iowa City Council Civic Center 410 E Vashinmton Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mayor and Council members: I'm very concerned about the continued large scale development that Is occurring on the west side of Iowa City. Traffic patterns and narrow streets were.never designed to handle so many apartments. I understand there is a possibility that Melrose Lake may be sold and drained to build still more spartments. Melrose Lake is a catch basin for much of the drainage on the west side as well as a wildlife habitat. I strongly support the do zoning of the Neuzil and Melrose Lake areae in the�reet of all of us who live on the west aide of Iowa City. Sincerely, 47 1�0s a Iowa City Council Civic Center 410 E. Washington Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mayor and Council Members: The downzoning of the Neuzil and Melrose Lake areas will soon be considered by the Council. I strongly support the petition to downzone these areas. The Council may also be reviewing priorities and plans for acquiring parkland. I strongly encourage consideration of acquiring the Neuzil property as parkland. This land would provide an ideal site for a soccer field as well as many other park uses. No other property in District V of the Open Space Districts is as well suited for this purpose. Cost has been raised as a major impediment to acquiring the Neuzil property in the past. However, it would seem worthwhile to discuss the possibility with Mrs. Neuzil and exploring her interest in such a proposal, as well as obtaining an accurate appraisal of its value for this purpose. Furthermore, money to aid in its acquisition may be available from other sources. I would campaign strongly for a University Heights bond issue to support such a purchase. Perhaps some money could be obtained from Johnson County, which surely has an interest in supporting forested areas and open spaces. Sincerely, Joe M. Steele U Joe M.

Washington Iowa City, Iowa 52240 1 Dear Mayor and Council members: We are very concerned about the continued large scale development that is occurring on the west side of Iowa City. The large number of apartments along West Benton and in the Oakcrest area has created I a great deal of traffic that the streets were not designed to handle. 1 As winter continues, the piles of snow along the curb hampers traffic y further to the point that, along Sunset Street, where cars are al- lowed to park on both sides of the street, only a single traffic lane is passable. We understand there is a possibility that Melrose Lake may be sold and drained to build still more apartments. How awfull Do we not ; have enough apartments!?I The predictions are that student enroll- ment at the UI is to drop over the next ten years and then we may have quite a few barren and unused apartment complexes. Please consider, as you did with the Blackhawk Mini -park downtown, saving a bit of nature for those of us who will be living here long after a few transient students have left their apartments. We strongly support the downzoning of the Neuzil Pasture and Melrose Lake areas in the interest of all who live on the west side of Iowa City. Sincerely, Susan M. Nickels Kenneth E. Nickels 222 Marietta, Iowa City i JAN 221985 CITY CLERK January 21, 1985 Iowa City Council Civic Center 410 E. Washington St. Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mayor and Council Members: As residents of the west side we are very concerned about the possibility that Melrose Lake may be drained to enable building of additional apartment buildings in our neighborhood. This will further congest our area because the layout of the streets and traffic patterns was not designed for this increased volume. There are also environmental principles which would be violated such as removal of the catch basin and destruction of wildlife habitat. We would like to go on record as strongly supporting the down - zoning of the Neuzil and Melrose Lake Areas in the interest of those of us already residing in this area. Sincerely, Dennis J.

Washington Iowa City Dear Council Members We are keenly interested in the down zoning of the Neuzil property to prevent increased traffic and reduce population density, Streets adjacent were not constructed for high density population. Melrose Lake is a fine and beautiful recreation area which I have managed first for Earl Yoder and now for Dr. and Mrs. Williams. We would have no quarrel with Dr. Williams adding to the present apartment with an addition to the east which present streets can handle. The lake should definitely be preserved and if possible become the property of the city. Sincerely yours& Dr. do Mrs. Donald D.

Washington Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mayor and Council Members: As a resident of Olive Court, which comes to a dead and a few yards ` just north of the Neuzil property; and as I also live near the Mel— rose Lake area, I wish to appeal to the Iowa City Council to down— zone the Neuzil and Melrose Lake areas so that no more apartment complexes can be built there. We already have traffic problems. At times of busy traffic, it '. is almost impossible to get out on Melrose Avenue at present. How much worse it would become if more apartment traffic were added. Our streets in this area are very narrow and cannot accomodate more traffic without haz'ar'd:. Furthermore, a natural wild life area would be destroyed; at least to some extent. i Why not a park that both Iowa Citians and University Heights residents could enjoy?

Smith, 625 in the Melrose TO: The Mayor FROM: Jeffery RE: Rezoning the City Council Brookland Park Drive Lake Area (Z-8420) JAN 41°85 CITY CLERK I would like to make the following observations on rezoning in the Melrose Lake area. t 1. INDICATIONS OF PUBLIC CONCERN. Petitions opposing further large-scale development were brought to the city clerk's office at various times during the last three months of 1984. By early December, the number of signatures on file had reached 322. Almost all of the persons who signed live in the vicinity of Melrose Lake. A series of neighborhood meetings have been held and a number of neighborhood residents have spoken at Planning and Zoning Commission meetings. The Melrose Lake Community Association raised $200 in individual donations to file for rezoning. 2. LEGAL ISSUES. The Melrose Lake Community Association asked the Legal Clinic at the University of Iowa Law School to provide a memo on whether the undeveloped portions of the Melrose Lake area may be rezoned and, if so, whether the action would constitute a "taking" of property requiring compensation of the owners. The memo can be summarized as follows. Since a municipality may not effectively rezone a parcel of land where the right to build under existing zoning was vested, we must ask whether any right to the existing zoning has vested. The relevant case law can be found in an Iowa Supreme Court case, Board of Supervisors of Scott County V. Paaske, 250 Iowa 1293, 98 N.W. 2d 827 (1959). i According to precedent, the issue of a vested right has to be settled on a case by case basis principally on the amount of actual building accomplished under conformity. (Have materials been placed on the site? Have foundations been laid? Etc.) No such construction has begun in the Melrose Lake area for further development so it should be obvious that the owners of the undeveloped land would not be able to claim a vested right. Furthermore, rights do not necessarily accrue where a landowner seeks to build with actual or constructive knowledge of pending rezoning according to language quoted by the Court. /7�4 1/15/85 J. Smith p. 2 The second question in rezoning such as this is whether the municipality is effectively "taking" property for public purposes under the city's condemnation powers. In a case decided by the Iowa Supreme Court in 1983, Stone v. City of Wilton, the plaintiffs sought damages after the city had rezoned their property from multifamily to single-family residential. "In sum, zoning is not static," the Court concluded. "A city's comprehensive plan is always subject to reasonable revisions designed to meet the ever-changing needs and conditions of a community.... Even if the testimony of Stones' expert is accepted, the change in zoning resulted in, at most, a 42% decrease in value of their properly. Such economic impact does not constitute a taking in light of the council's reasonable belief that the public welfare required a change in zoning.... Because the reasonableness of the council's decision to rezone plaintiff's property clearly is at least a fairly debatable question, we cannot substitute our view of reasonableness for that of the council." 331 N.W. 2d at 403, 404, 405. 3. "PUBLIC WELFARE" REASONS TO REZONE. There are several major concerns which have been raised by residents of the area. A. Drainage. Drainage from the lake has increased substantially in recent years due to run-off from the impermeable surfaces created by developments in the vicinity. Each new apartment complex makes the situation worse. Water draining from the lake is causing erosion in my backyard (and my neighbor's) and making it impossible for city crews to mow portions of Brookland Park. In the past, flooding has occurred in the Lower Benton Street area. B. Traffic and Density. The 1984 Neighborhood Open Space Plan found the Melrose Lake area 11.26 acres deficient in open space. The area is becoming densely populated in a way which will no doubt affect property values. Some parents and educators are concerned that more apartments will result in a higher turnover rate for Roosevelt students. The principal has noted, in a letter to the Planning and Zoning Commission, that the traffic situation near the school. is now dangerous. Increased development near the lake will mean hundreds of additional car trips per day on residential streets which are already heavily travelled. C. Environment. The Melrose Lake area is considered environmentally sensitive. Paving and lighting additional portions of the land will disturb wildlife habitats. A bird - watcher has listed 155 species in the vicinity. There are raccoons, opossums, and other nocturnal animals. 171V ,ix): ]lonorable Mayor and City Council, 410 E.

When 1 first moved to Iowa City and Tower Court I could look to the north and see nothing but nice trees and residential homes - to the west there were only the Nagle Apartments at that time - to the south there was an undeveloped ravine area with lovely, large trees and only residential, single family dwellings were visible - to the east the same held true - low density, nice residential, single dwelling homes. Now when I take that same look I see a very extensive development of apartments and high density hous- ing. I am not against a balanced residential development. I don't think any- body protesting the proposed Melrose Lake expansion is against balanced devel- opment but if there is one area that is unbalanced as far as it's density is concerned, it is the western part of Iowa City, namely the area around Tower Court, Olive Court, Woodside Drive, Leamer Court, Brook Park Drive and Mari- etta. Now it's being proposed to extend high density development even fur- ther, putting much greater stress on existing facilities, namely streets, that were never planned or developed for this type of density. The residents of Tower Court and Marrietta have been somewhat isolated from the major problem of traffic compared to the other streets 1 have men- tioned because those streets are now dead-end. However, I can see the hand /7G I 1 t i i i January 21, 1985 Iowa City Council Page 2 writing on the wall that if the density increases in this area, other facil- ities must be developed to handle the additional traffic. This means the opening up of heretofore dead-end streets and possibly the widening of those streets which would then have a direct affect upon my property. I therefore encourage the council, if they have not already done so, to view the density that has developed in this area over the last 20 years and see for yourselves how such additional density will affect the long-term resi- dents of this area. It's not that we haven't expressed this concern in the past. These concerns and objections have been voiced before but history will demonstrate they were not taken very seriously and I came away from some of those meetings with the feeling that some of the council members felt that as long as the development was in the west area it wouldn't affect their local neighborhoods so our protests and concerns were not given serious considera- tion. Again I state, I am not against balanced development. If anybody doesn't feel that the area in question has not paid their dues as far as apartment construction, just take a few minutes and drive-through that area and see for yourselves. I strongly support the down -zoning of the Neuzil and Melrose Lake areas in the interest of all us who live on the west side of Iowa City. Thank you for your sincere concern and honest approach to solving this potential problem. Sincerely, Dr. Donald E.

S-8426). The following points can be made in support of their position that water and sewer should not be extended to the proposed subdivision. 1. This would constitute "leap -frog" development. The 1983 Comprehensive Plan states that "with the exception of the already platted Hunter's Run Subdivision, residential development (in the southwest area of the city) should be confined to areas east of Freeway 218 to promote efficient, compact and contiguous growth. (Section VII, p.SW-5.) This area of the city is not designated for more intensive use until the beginning of the long-range use period in 1998. (Section IV, pp -33-34.) Accordingly, the Comprehensive Plan indicates that city services (water & sewer) are not planned for this area during the short-range development period (1983-1998). (Section IV, p.28.) The extension of water and sewer to this area at this time would encourage development at a higher density than the Comprehensive Plan dictates for the short-range development period. (The Density of Development -- Short -Range Plan map appended to the Comprehensive Plan indicates that this area should remain in the Agricultural/Rural Residence category.) 2. Residents who have built in this area in the past few years were advised that water and sewer would not be extended to that section of the city in the near future. Based on this advice, we each, in good faith, drilled our own wells and built our own septic systems. One family did this as recently as 6 months ago. 3, Rohret Road is not in sufficient repair to handle the extra traffic a higher density subdivision would encourage. One of our concerns is that those people currently living along Rohret Road would be asked to pay for upgrades needed to meet the demands of a new subdivision. /79 4. The applicant's argument that people wouldced not bdrie abletheitown afford lots in this area if they were wells and build their own septic systems cannot be substantiated. In the past two years, three homes have been built directly across from the proposed subdivision. People who build homes in an area such as this expect to incur a few extra expenses inexchange tfor the priviledge of having larger lots and for the opportunity live in one of the more pleasant, rural areas of Iowa City. In conclusion, we would like to express the hope that this Council will continue the tradition of past council`leinouupholding ythe to integrity of our city policies and p Commission support the recommendations of the Planning and Zoning and the Department of Planning and Program Development.

At this same meeting, the City Council voted to approve the preliminary and final subdivison plat of Southwest Estates, Part One, without the provision of City water or sewer services.

Steinbrech Elementary Principal TO WhOM IT r]AY CONCERN: Irene Klinzman i k Elementary Secretary .s Principal of Roosevelt Elementary School, I an writing to advise you of a situation that is developing in our school community. Five short years ago, when I first cane to the school, Roosevelt was made un of many families from the surrounding neighborhood. Xost children walked to school unescorted, rode their biles and seemed to nova alout the area with a certain an..ount of confidence. Unfortunately, conditions have changed dramatically and appear to be continuing to do so. ;incle family hones have been replaced by enormous housing units. :'ith these sprawling structures have cone ever -multiplying swans of cars. Benton Street which was somewhat busy in past tines has become a very real danger to the children who must cross it on -their way to and from school. 11te adult crossing guard at the top of the hill takes his life in his hands each tine he attempts to stop long lines of cars in order to allow children to cross. rchool buses tie up traffic for blocks as trey wait to nake left turns onto Greenwood Drive. Quiet little Greenwood Drive has already experienced an increase in traffic .which in turn adds to the congestion at the crest of Benton STrcet hill or to the dangerous situation at the intersection of Myrtle and Riverside Drive (another dangerous area for sone of our school buses). I don't believe these streets were ever intended to handle this level of traffic as it is at this time. With more mega-i.vildings added, the traffic situation will be unnanagable. :•nd through this, elementary children will be attempting to make their way to and from school safely. As in any community, it is inevitable that most neighborhoods will experience change over the years, it seems to no however, that to allow a family neigh- borhood tb be destroyed by uncontrolled building is in only a very few peoples best interest. Please allow what is left of our noighhorhood to retain the qualities that once pronpted people to make their.hones here. Sincerely, N llora L.Steinbrech ,-CSei� Cr.

Any displacement of water in Melrose Leke has a direct impact on our neighborhood, despite whNt the engineers have said in their report. All neighbors living near that creek in the Benton area have voiced sincere concern over the flash floods that flush through the neighborhood. It results from the dumping of water from Melrose Lake and has no direct connection to rain fall,as these floods have come on sunny days, with no warning. This presents three prculems: 1. Concerns for the health and safety of people living in the rental property which is built on the creek bed 2. Concern for the safety of all high traffic usage of West Benton street; city and school buses, heavy equipment and cors, until the culvert is replaced next summer -1985-6 3. Concern for the inquisitive children drawn to the creek to explore. There is nc way to warn them of a flash flood. 2 i Nater seeks it's own level and obviously jdoes not alstays disperse itself in Brookland Park as the engineers way. It does flood our neighbor - I j ihoods forcefully )at the will of whatever device lowers the lake level. Before you vote either way- remember -this is I not just- should another apartment be built? This is changing the natural drainage ofrq large area of the city, where drainage alreadv needs to be controlled. This concerns the health,, safety of the citizens of Iowa City and their children.

PARK IN MELROSE LAKE AREA 11) =c/a°W In the past 8-10 years, the area of Iowa City south of Kinnick Stadium and the Field House has increased in papulation considerably. A number of apartments have been built on Oakcrest as well as Benton. Recently, public hearings have been held regarding two proposed 0 -unit apartment buildings (near the a:cisting 30 -unit apartment compleO an a four and one-half acre tract adjacent to Melrose Lake. Current zoning would allow a maximum of 136- .living units and 240 parking spaces on the eight and one-half acre tract directly west of this area owned by Neuzil. If both of these tracts were to be developed as currently zoned for muitiole housino, This Part of I3wa Citi .:culd have an extremely high density inadeouately served by parks. Furthermore, these two tracts which have Peen viewed for years as prime land for a Park would no longer be available. In ?act, if these areas are develcoed for muaiPle housing, the area judged by Project Green as environmentally fraoile with some drainage Problems would be substantially modified. A further concern regarding the development of these two tracts as multiple family housing has to do with adequate street access and provision of city services. The existing 30 -unit apartment comple>. on Melrose Lake is currently served only by one private road, Woodside Drive. Secondary limited access is available via Staube Lane, a dirt road partially barricaded, that empties onto Melrose Avenue. No access from Iowa City currently is available to the Neuzil property. It is Possible that a bottleneck similar to (or worse than) the single access that services apartments and homes off of Weeber Street would be created. While Iowa City Traffic Engineers have provided piece -meal evaluations of the impact of one development or another, a comprehensive study of traffic problems in this part of the city needs to be done. This study should take into account both rush hour and full day traffic that would result from full development of these tracts plus the opening of the I-380 interchange on west Melrose Avenue and the opening of the new Law Building. It should also consider the need for an additional north -south street between Melrose Avenue and Myrtle or Benton. If Iowa City does not act soon to secure adequate park land within walking distance of residents of this part of the city, no land will be available for this purpose. Moreover, full development plus anticipated increased traffic will substantially change the residential character of this community. Loss of this open space plus the impact of increased density would result in a substantial degredation in the quality of life for those living in the surrounding neighborhoods. The time for securing park land in this area is now. Could studies be initiated regarding the current and potential population density of this area? Could a comprehensive traffic study be conducted, including adequate provision of fire, police, and other city services to potential multiple family units on Melrose Lake and Neuzil properties? Could priorities for park acquisition be reviewed in terms of the likelihood of park land being available in the future? If these two tracts could be made available as a park, all the children and families that live in the surrounding areas for years to come can cherish and enjoy it. 9 Audrey Knox 1012 Tower Court Planning and Zoning Commission; My family has lived on Tower Court for eleven years, during which time five large apartment buildings have been built on Oakcrest Street and one on Melrose Lake. We are being surrounded and it is time to put an end to this madness. Presently the Neuzil tract and Melrose Lake offer some green space and tranquility. Please keep it that way. Traffic will become a worse problem with more construction in this area. My children have both been student crossing guards at Roosevelt School and can attest to the fact that it is difficult to find safe gaps in traffic now ---what will It be like if there are hundreds of additional car trips out of this area per day?

As stated in an Iowa City Staff Report for the Planning and Zoning Commission dated September 14, 1971, "The staff believes that the present R3A zoning of both the Melrose Apartment and Neuzil tracts to be ill- conceived and consequently inconsistent with either logical or functional land use control and development. This assertion is based on the fact that the comparatively high population and building density provided for in the R3A zoning district classification is unacceptable vis-a-vis the existing and proposed circulation pattern." Most of the residents in the area feel that this is valid for any type of apartment buildings, not just R3A, since extensive apartment development has already inundated the area. We shall very much appreciate your consideration of the enclosed points in connection with current and future plans and decisions for the area. Enclosure Sincerely yours, E.e -Le_ a.•ica�„i Dan and Fredine Branson /0 � Lk"6.EV06� Dec. 4, 1984 T0: Planning and Zoning Commission City Council I live at 1005 Tower Ct. I was born in Iowa City. I am very concerned about more large-scale development on or near Melrose Lake. Three problems stand out: 1. Whether you wish it or not, there to acknowledge has been a drainage problem on West Benton St. and Giblin Dr. when the level of Melrose Lake has been lowered in the past. Yy parents, Jess and V1 Rarick, 724 George St'. (formerly 401 West Benton) remember vividly the sea of mud and water that came down West Benton several times in 1973 when the Lake was partially drained. I understand that your city engineers see no problem but "on paper" and the realexperiences of several people living on Benton and Giblin in '73 simply don't match. Please at least talk to some of these people who have first hand knowledge of the problem. 2. Safety is a grave concern. The principal of Roosevelt school reported recently that children are actually late to school due to waiting to find a clear space to cross where Roosevelt School empties onto greenwood. A 15 minute wait is not unusual. Row can we dump more care onto these narrow, curvy roads which were never intended to handle such traffic? 3. Good access is the third nroblem. Woodside Dr. cannot handle more care. It's another curvy little street, prone to be icy in the winter, where an accident is waiting to happen. I hone that you will seriously consider the zoning change for this property which Is before you at this time. Sincerely, P•�'•^. Cc_FARTlNEPvT AV /ffr2. WILL J. HAYEK (1896.1962) JOHN W.

KARR city of Iowa city CITY CLERK (3) 410 East Washington St. Iowa City, Iowa 52240 RE: Rezoning of 21 acres in vicinity of Melrose Lake. ATTENTION: Planning and Zoning Commission and Members of the City Council. I would like to go on record as opposing the proposed rezoning of the above noted area. I own a property within the area under consideration at 80 Olive Court. My current zoning is RM12. Prior to the rezoning in December of 1983, my property was R3A. The rezoning in 1983 has made my property non- conforming sofurther change would have little impact on me personally but I feel obligated to stand up for the property rights of those in the area that risk the potential for further devaluation of their properties. Zoning ordinances have a great affect on property values since they govern the utility of the land. A change in zoning, such as the one proposed will undoubtedly change the highest and best use of the vacant land in this area. I also oppose the purchase of land in this area for park land since the aquisition cost would be very high. Development land for apartment sites has sold in the neighborhood of $9000-$12,000 per apartment unit. This would mean the approximate value of land in the RM12 zoning in this area is approximately $100,000 per acre depending upon the utilization after deductions for street right of ways and stormwater drainage basins. In contrast, land for single family development has been selling for $10,00$15,000e per acreproI believe the city paid approximately $10,000 per re Under the premise of "Caveat Emptor", I am critical of the surrounding property owners for initiating this proposed change. 1962. Anypersons zoning ordinance was first enacted in app Y buying properties in the area since that time were on record as to the probable utilization of the properties in the area and should have governed their actions accordingly. /Pz R 4 The economic affect of rezoning could have disastrous affects on some individuals in the area. Failure to change the zoning will have no measurable economic affect on the individuals within this area in my opinion. I can see no positive affect from this rezoning.

Traffic pat- terns and narrow streets were never designed to handle so many apartments. I understand there is a possibility that Melrose Lake may be sold and drained to build still more apartments. Melrose Lake is a catch basin for much of the drainage on the west side as well as a wildlife habitat. If such an action were to take place there would be a severe disturbance of the natural environ- ment; the numerous birds, small animals and the such creatures are a pleasant sight in the midst of a city. I therefore, strongly support the downzoning of the Neuzil and Melrose Lake areas in the interest of those who live in the area as well as the preservation of the delicate setting, on the west side of Iowa City.

By TOM KNUDSON W res. aewmrlf Mae calf u. v CORALVILLZ IA. — When devel. oper tick Phipps began work on a $1 million seven -building apartment complex ben In February, he hoped to have all 110 units rented by Septem- ber. Today, he wishes he'd never started. Two of the buildings stand empty, a third Is Just partially occupied and only about half of the 110 units are rented . . "I wouldn't have ever built them U I'd known there was going to be so many apartments built In Iowa City and Coraiville," Phipps Bald. "Every- body had a good idea all at once — and now we're overbuilt. Tremendously overbuilt." Phipps' pllgbt is becoming more is- miliar here as builders, bankers and Investors begin to feel the aftershocks of one of the state's most frenzied building booms in recent history. In 1980, residential construction topped $12 million in the Iowa Cily- CoralviUe area — more than twice the total of any other city.ln the state. A .big chunk of the money, nearly $01 million, paid for the construction of • more than 1,800 sew apartments and duplexes, city records show. Since 1901, about 2,000 new cental units have been built — more than one apartmed for every new student ea rolled it the University of Iowa. Va- cancy rates Jumped, rests dropped and lendlords began to scramble to find tenants — the first time that's happened la yeah. .The situation grew mora serious In 1981 as the mounting vacancy rate began to trigger ofber problem that thraten to tam yesterday's boom Into tomenelr's best e Lacking sufficient renters, some apartment owners have been forced to dip into their own pockets to make mortgage payments. "1 think the have been instances of this," said L ler Batterman, secretary of the Not Builders Association of Iowa City. e More apartments are coming for sale — but buyers are scan "Two years ago, we could have w many of these places within a wa Today we've got an inventory of 200 250 units," said Jack Miller, a party In the real estate firm of Schein man -Richardson W. e Prices for apartment bulldir may plunge. "I'll bet that in five seven years you'll be able to pick at $180,080 for $100,008 to 8120,000;' said Omer Letts, director of Coral. ville's building department. e Banks am getting nervous about their loam. "I've heard rumors that unless the vacancy situation Im- proves, some of these new units in Coralvllle may be going back to the lender next year 'said Miller. "I think we may we some shake. outs, Jud like we've seen shakeouts In the farming community," said Better - man. "Owners may be selling their buildings for what they've depredated them down to. And that's cruel." A few years ago, such woes were un- heard of. Enrollment at the University of Iowa was Jumping (it has since ta- pered off), Interest rates were drop- ping and apartments looked like a very good investment. All a person had to do three yeas ago was find a piece of land — It didn't matter what you paid for it — stick up a ten -plea on It and charge high sed. We're talking about pure greed," add Miller. "It's like anything else," said Bet- terman. "Once people find whit they think is the golden goose, they seek kill it. Somebody always gets over -zealous and overdoes it.

' 1r3 V January 29, 1985 To: City Council of Iowa City, 1,t our Miller/Orchard Neighborhood's request, the Iowa City Engineering Department started a study last spring cf the Melrose Lake drainage area, and the highly unsafe conditions of the culvert in the 200 block of West Menton Street. You will discuss the funding for this project in Capitakl Improvements tie t Monday evening. Neighbors living near that creek in the Benton area have voiced sincere concern over the flash floods that flush through the neighoorhood. It results from the dumping of coater from Melrose Lake and has no direct connection to current rainfall, as these floods have come on sunny days with no warning. This presents three problems: 1. Concern for the health and safety of people living in the rental property which is uuilt on the creek ued. 2. Concern for the safety of all high traffic usage of West Benton Street; city and school buses, heavy equipment, and thousands of cars, -until the culvert is replaced. 3. Concern for the safety of inquisitive children drawn to the area. There is no way to warn them of a flash flood. So, we must consider the source -Melrose L=ke. :any 193 z displacement of water in the Melrose Lake area -large apartment complexes and their large paved parking lots - has a direct impact on adjoining neighborhoods downstream. Water seeks it's own levelgyd ouviously does not always disperse itself ii, drookland Park as was planned. It does flood our neighborhood forcefully at the will of the device that automatically lowers the lake Level. rsefore you vote- rememuer- this is not just- should another apartment ue built. This is changing the natural drainage of a large area of the city, where drainage already needs to be controlled. This concerns the health, and safety of thecitizens and the children of Iowa city.

Washington Iowa City, Iowa 52240 To the ;,!embers of the Iowa City City Council Jan. 29, 1985 the Iowa City area has been enriched by a larse community of artists who live and work independent of University affiliation. The Iowa City/Johnson County Arts Council was formed about ten years ago to support the local arts and foster their growth. With a current membership of 350-400, the Council runs The Art Center at 129 E. /ashing,ton, a two -room zallery, office and sales shop which is open six days a week. Eleven exhibitions of work by local artists are installed each year and are seen by approximately 6000 people. The Center has been used for poetry readings, rehearsal space, lectures and workshops. ArtsFest, the summer festival of the arts, is a joint effort of fhe Arts Council, the Department of Parks and 'Recreation, the downtown businesses and ancher Center for the Arts. This active program is carried out entirely by volunteers. Money for our activities has come from membership dues, grants from state agencies, sales commissions and special fundraising, events. We have never received city funding. We are requesting funds to expand our program, make our activities more visible within the community and enable us to work cooperatively with other local organizations on projects of mutual interest. The funds would not be used for ongoing operating expenses nor would the coordinator of these events be replacing a volunteer. of a total budget of .p6000, city funds would be used for three special projects. 1. Paper/Fiber, our annual, national juried exhibitions funds for a wide publicity campaign in Iowa and Illinois and funds for a special event. 2. ArtsFests funds to publicize the arts fair among regional artists to increase participation and funds to advertise Stars in the Bars, three evenings of cabaret entertainment. 3. A special event in conjunction with one of our exhibitions. The benefits to Iowa City of this special program will includes 1. Giving the work of local artists more exposure and stimulating sales. 2. Increasing community awareness and participation in Iowa City's cultural resources. 3. Encouraging visitors from outside the immediate area to come to Iowa City for exhibitions and events. We have in the past worked very successfully with the Convention and Tourism Board and plan to continue. /V a l CITY GY IOWA CITY CHIC CENTER 410 E. WASHNGTON ST. IOWA CITY, IOWA 52240 (319)356-503D January 23, 1985 The Honorable Mayor and City Council Iowa City, Iowa Dear Mayor McDonald: Pursuant to your request, our committee has met, examined the available facts and has adopted the following recommendation. The City Attorney Review and Selection Advisory Committee believes that the City Attorney should be a person who has excellent legal skills and has administrative ability. The Committee believes that the City of Iowa City is most likely to find such an individual by offering a full-time po- sition. The Committee recommends to the City Council that the City Attorney position be full-time at a minimum salary of $45,000 to $50,000. It was moved by Bartley, seconded by Seward, and adopted, Hayek voting no. I will be present at your informal meeting and will be happy to discuss with you the reasons for the recommendation. Respectfully submitted, Mary C. Lhauser bj3/15 /9f Dear Mrs. Neuheuser: Iowa City, Iowa 52240 331 South Summit Street January 23, 1985 Re; City Attorney I feel that it would be a disservice to.the people of our community to provide for an in-house city attorney. We need someone who is independent of the city manager. While the city manager may not consciously endeavor to influence the opinions given by the city attorney, the close contact with the manager cannot help incline the city attorney toward opinions favorable to the city maaeger. Also, I feel that we need a city attorney who is out in contact with the general public and know- ing what is going on in the city as a whole, rather than one who is confined to the civic center. very truly yours, &;,M. i Emil G.
