WASHINGTON ST OWA IOWA CITY, IOWA 52240 CITY (319) 356-5000 STATE OF THE CITY ADDRESS PRESENTED BY: JOHN MCDONALD, MAYOR AT THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF IOWA CITY FEBRUARY 26, 1985 As I was working on the State of the City Address, I couldn't help but think about what value or purpose it has. Of course one reason for preparing it is that our charter dictates that such a statement will be delivered annually by the Mayor. But the real reasons behind the tradition became more and more apparent as I reflected on the status of a number of projects since this address was last given. Preparing this speech is somewhat like consulting a road map --it does provide the Council with a look at where we've been and where we're going. So, while it may seem a bit tedious, just as on any occasion where you might find yourself taking a seemingly endless and unpredictable journey, it is how the process works --it is crucial that different viewpoints and sources are sought out in order to have the best possible look at what the impact of any one decision along the way might be. Through this opportunity to periodically stand back and reflect, not only are we made aware of a list of accomplishments, but we are reminded how healthy the level of interest is on the part of our citizenry. That so many people appear before the Council to present a particular point of view, that they make opinions known by writing letters or calling individual Council members or simply chatting with us whenever an occasion presents itself, earns high marks not only for a willingness of Iowa Citians to air their concerns but for the willingness of the members of a governing body to make themselves so accessible. What that says is that every member of this Council takes their job very seriously --that each of us in our own way tries to carefully reason and understand the impact of our deliberateness --both long and short range. We're very lucky in this conmunity. We have a diverse populace that blends very well and that is willing to get involved. We have a Council willing to tackle tough issues. And, we have an unusually high degree of commitment on the part of our City employees. That Iowa City works so well is in no small part due to the cooperation between departments and because of a very real effort on the part of City staff to parcel out available resources and yet maintain an efficient shop. It doesn't always work that well in other communities. Because of a low level of productivity in municipal services, more and more cities have gone to contracting out for services which more often than not produces a deficit disorder in the budget. Services upon which this community depends --the collection of refuse to name just one --are outstanding, and that credit goes to a lot of dedicated employees and to the effort given toward keeping services efficient and at the same time fiscally sound. 301 OF PRECEDING DOCUMENT N I CITY OF IOWA CITY CIVIC CENTER 410 E. WASHINGTON ST. IOWA CIN, IOWA 52240 (319) 356-5C00 STATE OF THE CITY ADDRESS PRESENTED BY: JOHN MCDONALD, MAYOR AT THE REGULAR 14EETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF IOWA CITY FEBRUARY 26, 1985 As I was working on the State of the City Address, I couldn't help but think about what value or purpose it has. Of course one reason for preparing it is that our charter dictates that such a statement will be delivered annually by the Mayor. But the real reasons behind the tradition became more and more apparent as I reflected on the status of a number of projects since this address was last given. Preparing this speech is somewhat like consulting a road map --it does provide the Council with a look at where we've been and where we're going. So, while it may seem a bit tedious, just as on any j occasion where you might find yourself taking a seemingly endless and unpredictable journey, it is how the process works --it is crucial that different viewpoints and sources are sought out in order to have the best possible look at what the impact of any one decision along the way might be. Through this opportunity to periodically stand back and reflect, not only are we made aware of a list of accomplishments, but we are reminded how healthy 1 the level of interest is on the part of our citizenry. That so many people appear before the Council to present a particular point of view, that they make opinions known by writing letters or calling individual Council members or simply chatting with us whenever an occasion presents itself, earns high marks not only for a willingness of Iowa Citians to air their concerns but 1 for the willingness of the members of a governing body to make themselves so accessible. What that says is that every member of this Council takes their job very seriously --that each of us in our own way tries to carefully reason and understand the impact of our deliberateness -- both long and short range. We're very lucky in this community. We have a diverse populace that blends very well and that is willing to get involved. We have a Council willing to tackle tough issues. And, we have an unusually high degree of commitment on the part of our City employees. That Iowa City works so well is in no small part due to the cooperation between departments and because of a very real effort on the part of City staff to parcel out available resources and yet maintain an efficient shop. It doesn't always work that well in other comnunities. Because of a low level of productivity in municipal services, more and more cities have gone to contracting out for services which more often than not produces a deficit disorder in the budget. Services upon which this community depends --the collection of refuse to name just one --are outstanding, and that credit goes to a lot of dedicated employees and to the effort given toward keeping services efficient and at the same time fiscally sound. 301 Another aspect of keeping the wheels turning is the volunteer aspect of City government. We currently operate with 23 boards and commissions. This involves over 200 people who donate their time and energies to a specific area in which problems are analyzed and recommendations are made to the Council. In a very real way, these commissions are the eyes and ears of the Council. Clearly, without the very sizable commitment on the part of these people, the decision-making process would practically grind to a halt. Now, before I discuss specific objectives which we hope to see the City accomplish during 1985, I would like to mention several important goals which were realized during 1984. First among these was the completion of the downtown Holiday Inn last September. This project had been reflected in Council's objectives for a number of years and it is indeed gratifying to see the marketing and development of that parcel completed. Our new Mass Transit Facility was also placed in operation last year. This was a rather pleasant and, until recently, unexpected accomplishment; the federal funds having become available only in late 1982, several years in advance of what we had originally anticipated. 1984 also saw the creation of First Capitol Develop- ment, Inc., the culmination of what I believe is an unprecedented cooperative effort on the part of the City, the Chamber of Commerce, and the University of Iowa to promote and implement an economic development program which should prove to have an exceptionally positive influence on the future growth and prosperity of our community. Lastly, I should comment briefly on the continued firm fiscal basis upon which Iowa City operates. In 1984 we were able to reduce our general fund tax levy to an amount below the $8.10 per $1,000 valuation maximum levy for the first time since 1978. This was possible due to a combination of increased property valuations and the j completion of extensive property development within the City, primarily in the area of new multiple unit housing. I would like to turn now to some of the major objectives to be accomplished in 1985. Many of these involve long-term projects which I have addressed and even my predecessors have addressed in prior years. I anticipate with great enthusiasm their completion during the coming year. The Council has approved funding for improvements at the Municipal Airport to be initiated this year in order to bring that facility back into compliance with the funding requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration. We will complete negotiations with Iowa -Illinois Gas & Electric for renewal of utility franchises and these will be placed on the ballot for voter approval. A comprehensive study of parking in the downtown area will soon be completed and I anticipate initial steps being taken to resolve some parking congestion in the Dubuque Street parking garage as well as the selection of alternatives for meeting our long-term parking needs. In 1985 we will complete marketing documents for the last remaining urban renewal parcel and successful marketing efforts will hopefully result in our selection of a preferred developer during the latter part of 1985. This Council will continue to explore alternatives and possibilities so that the development of this last parcel, when completed, will further enhance our downtown plaza area. This year we will also complete a study and market analysis of congregate housing needs in our community. Upon its completion, we will then determine whether or not the existing need warrants the expendi- ture of funds previously allocated for development of congregate housing. Finally, 1985 will see a decision by the City on how we will meet current and future space needs for City government operations. 30/ In addition to all of these objectives which have originated in prior years, our course of action for 1985 involves a number of targeted accomplishments which are of more recent origin. The City will, for the first time in many years, select a City Attorney who will function as full-time legal counsel for the City. We also will be working toward the adoption of a comprehensive economic development program geared to meet all our needs for remaining a competitive, viable community in which new industries will be willing to locate and in which existing commercial and industrial interests will be anxious to expand. I believe that foremost among our charges for 1985 stands the challenge of addressing how best to cope with revenue shortfalls which will result from federal and state funding reductions. While Iowa City has remained fiscally strong through realistic and somewhat conservative budgeting practices, it appears that there is potential for unprecedented reductions in federal and state funds for cities during the next fiscal year. The manner in which we address, problems resulting from these revenue reductions will have a serious impact on the economic viability of Iowa City for years to come. The prospect of coping with such an economic crisis while continuing to meet, to the greatest extent possible, the needs of all the citizens of this community, may represent an economic challenge, the extent of which an Iowa City City Council has not had to confront for many years. With the reality of diminishing federal funds, it is our responsibility to jjj make that impact as minimal as possible. It is not only the responsibility of local officials, but of the citizenry, to embark on a wholehearted effort to petition and persuade our elected national officials as to the crippling result of these reductions. The bind in which we find ourselves is one of continuing to provide reliable services when virtually the only source of revenue for doing so comes from property taxes and we all bear that bur- den --not only property owners but the very large segment of those who pay rent in this community. Although the future looks more difficult than in recent years, there's no doubt that the "times" will be responded to. Admittedly, our cause has been helped by the foresight of former councils in planning for an uncertain future, and will continue to be helped by an ongoing willingness on the part of Iowa Citians to not only share an abundance of knowledge and expertise but to stay abreast of the ramifications of the issues --whatever form that takes. One such hurdle in recent years has been the development of an adequate wastewater system facility. The Council will, in the next several months, complete its study of alternative plans which will see the realization of a sewage treatment plant designed to meet the City's needs for the immediate future and over the coming years. With the able assistance of knowledgeable consultants, and in close cooperation with the expertise which resides within this community, we hope to see such a plan implemented by the end of the year. There's no question that the launching of this project represents a huge investment toward the welfare of future growth in this community and there's no doubt that it will continue to require the lion's share of the Council's attention, as options are considered and developed. 30/ 4 In talking to you tonight about the issue of an adequate wastewater system, I'm reminded of the year 1884 when a man named Charlie Reno was Mayor, and newspapers reported a major controversy brewing over the University wanting to become a part of the city sewer system when the city sewer system was at capacity. I'm sure that that council struggled with resolving the issue with. the same intensity as this Council has and while the times were no doubt appreciably different, it is worth noting that the number one issue 100 years ago is back in the forefront. I'm not nearly as certain, however, that this discovery has a rightful place on the listing of Iowa City "firsts" which appeared in Friday press -Citizen. I guess we'll have to let Irving Weber grapple with that one an a seems fitting since I can't imagine any salute to volunteerism which didn't include Iowa City's own personal historian. jAs the sewage issue 100 ears ago and today a balance between maximum benefit and avaiable graphically lwithaanseyettoward ultimate impact is still the formula, or road map, we work with. Maybe things were "simpler then," but the charge to this Council is no different than to previous councils, and we're no more immune than they from taking an I I ill-advised turn occasionally. So, once again, we approach the issues ahead taking comfort in knowing we won't be carrying on with the business of the day alone, but with the always vital community spirit behind us. 304 i i 304 I CITY Of •f IMI��NS1AIIlY�19YSRY LIOWA MMCITY AOJU9TMEMTY ENO/NO FUND INVNCE ESTMENT CN.acLaINC241C FUW91ACCDUMT DFU[NMIMO FUND VALANCE RECEIPYY OI i5& VALAMCDo 1.10535.50 705.117.94 115,407.5& GENERAL - 1.5Y5rf/2.57 525,556.15 -005,33.2 1.0050333.73 .20,595.27 .5&,585.27 .00 9EGi SERVJC[ 941403/5.50 39.959.45 470/70.40 119,373.92 .00 -327,024.44 294,/55.7] 759-245.77 .00 CAPITAL PROJECTS IA3,419.31 G27.5J7.77 759-177.99 327,775.10 4,44403/1.07 9-459-797.75 .78 4,044.00 ENTERPRISE 4,310.629.01 7Yb BY].57 135,107,47 -4@977.71 1r 2011,435.55 V-20"25-53.00 TRUST A AGENCY 4,915,493.35 453.223.92 40,400.77 17,940.71 720,470.20 ]20,470.40 {MfRASOY.

KARR CITY CLERK (3) Ladies and Gentlemen: It is my understanding that you are holding public hearings on the Iowa City zoning ordinance acted upon by the Iowa City Council on Decenber 20, 1983. At present public hearings are on the proposed zoning ordinances as remmended by the Planning and Zoning Comdssion during September, 1983, and enacted by the City 0cuncil on Decenber 20, 1983. The decision of Judge Swailes held that the ordinance approved on Decenber 20, 1983, is invalid in that it was not properly enacted procedurally and that it also had other legal flaws. At this time the ordinance enacted in 1962 as subsequently amended is in fact the present existing Iowa City zoning ordinance. With the foregoing premise in mind, I urge you to take this opportunity to study the new proposed ordinance thoroughly and unhurriedly prior to any subsequent enactment. The objections previously made on behalf of various clients of this office are incorporated herein by reference. Prior to the time that you vote on this proposal, I will furnish another list of property owners who object to the enactment of the proposed ordinance with reasons for the objections. 9bese property owners include but are not limited to myself, Plumbers Supply 0onpany, KSK Partnership, Southgate Development, Old Capitol Dbtors, Clarence and Kenneth Hagen, Earl Yoder, Bon -Aire Dbbile Home Lodge, Thomas R. Alberhasky, and Kenneth L. Albrecht, who have had greater restrictions placed upon the use of the various properties owned by then than the provisions of the 1962 ordinance as amended. City Council of Iowa City Iowa City Planning and Zoning Page Two February 7, 1985 The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the objections and to request that you permit subsequent written objections to the proposed rezoning. in the event that this is not feasible, the objections will be submitted to the City Council of Iowa City, Iowa, prior to or at the required public hearing by that entity. hank you for your WIM:seh i I i I i i , City Council of Iowa City Iowa City Planning and Zoning Page Two February 7, 1985 The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the objections and to request that you permit subsequent written objections to the proposed rezoning. in the event that this is not feasible, the objections will be submitted to the City Council of Iowa City, Iowa, prior to or at the required public hearing by that entity. hank you for your WIM:seh VEENSTRA & KIMM, INC.

Our Environmental Concerns Committee of the Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with the City Staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission throughout the year refining the recommended changes to the ordinance. We have encouraged input from those effected by the ordinance during this review process. However, it is apparent that there are a number of issues which remain unresolved in terms of aesthetic preference and impact upon our business community and private enterprise. I have reviewed the issues raised at the hearing with my Committee and we are continuing our research on these to better address solutions. We have prepared a Survey for all Chamber members (700) which will be distributed in the February Newsletter. We have requested that the Surveys be completed and returned by March 4th. At this point we feel it is imperative to go to the people most directly effected by the regulations and receive their imput on such issues as availability of standard size billboards, use of projecting signs, height of free standing signs and size of facia signs. I am currently preparing a list of our Committee's recommendations and/or positions on these and other unresolved issues. I hope to have this in its preliminary form for discussion at your informal meeting of February 25th. MAIN OFF ICF 9q W15114NK HUI1.DING •IIAI22ND S1RL0-WLSI DLS MOWLS.

KARR Iowa City City Council CITY CLERK (3) Civic Center 410 E Washington Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mayor McDonald and Council Members: Thank you very much for your kind attention to our concerns and the con- cerns of our Iowa City customers, regarding the proposed sign ordinance. This ! letter is pursuant to your request to furnish in writing, those, and any other problems that may need attention. Please allow us to reiterate our respect for the uniqueness of the Iowa City Community, and ordinances which reflect that uniqueness. These suggestions C` are a result of concerns expressed to us by those businesses and institutions we work for in Iowa City. We are proud to have served Iowa City since 1925, E and to have played a role in the drafting of the original ordinance in the late lI '60's and early '70's. Further, we would like to commend the committee in their work to stream- line the sign ordinance. We agree with the importance of that goal. We believe ` that the unintended side effects of this effort may have resulted from the ab- sence of those with everyday experience with the sign ordinances. It is our understanding that this ordinance restructuring has not been prompted by a concern about the lack of regulations. The existing ordinance is probably the most strict in Iowa. Again, that is a position we do not quarrel with in general if it accurately reflects the wishes of the community. There are, however, a number of provisions where there is little or no community benefit, yet high cost of enforcement and economic hardships for business and industry. The following are brief descriptions of significantly more stringent controls of the proposed ordinance: FASCIA SIGNS The existing ordinance allows that their size may be 20% of the downtown wall to which they are attached. The new ordinance re- duces that by 50% to 10% of the wall. I know of no sign that is offensively large at 20%. Under the proposal, John Doe Jewelery, with a 30' frontage probably couldn't use a modest size 24" capital letter on the name of his or her business. r w • n 40 I 4820 J Street S.W. • Cedar Rapids, Iowa 62404 Phone: 318.366.6312 Phone: 1.800332.8403 Toil Free from anywhere In Iowa 3�3 Mayor McDonald & Council Members February 5, 1985 Page 2 PROJECTING SIGNS - (attached to a building) This type of sign is now allowed in CH and was previously also allowed in C2. (It was inadvertently disallowed in C2 when a paragraph was dropped during an ordinance reprinting.) The new ordinance prohibits such a sign in all zones. A conscious decision to disallow projecting signs in the down- town area was adopted 15 years ago. This is because of the positioning of buildings right on the property line. It has worked well in that setting. There is no corresponding benefit in other zones. A projecting sign is the equivalent of , among other things, a poor person's free standing sign. If a building is properly positioned, such a sign can be attached to it rather than going to the expense and adding the clutter of a free standing pole. Projecting signs are an important option in C2, CH and industrial zones. They are not objectionable and create no hazards. FREE STANDING SIGN HEIGHT The current ordinance allows 35' overall, the new ordinance calls for a 30% reduction to 25' above grade. Again, we're aware of no problem signs at 35'. Many times geo- graphic positioning of a lot makes a higher sign ledgible, serving both the consumer and the institution it identifies. FREE STANDING SIGNS ON CORNER LOTS The existing ordinance prohibits a free standing sign in the corner triangle of a lot with the legs of the triangle being 20'. The new ordinance would enlarge that prohibition by 250%, in some instances, by making the triangle legs 70'. There is a better way to control vision obstructions at a corner than even the 20' rule. The 70' rule would eliminate the use of a free standing sign for many small businesses. This will be a serious hardship. SECOND FRONTAGE FASCIA SIGNS A business with a frontage on two streets is allowed a fascia sign on both frontages by the current ordinance. The second sign would ehrthe �Jre frontages�ng identification toconsumrstaveling onone ofth 3073 Mayor McDonald & Council Members February 5, 1985 Page 3 ELECTRONIC CHANGEABLE COPY The new ordinance expressly prohibits the use of this new technology in all zones. I understand the staff felt that such signs are distracting to motorists. There is no known case in this country where such a sign was blamed for an accident. We don't believe such unsub- stantiated assumptions should generate an absolute prohibition. These signs have proven to be an excellent marketing tool for a limited type of business. Further, they are most generally used to promote community benefits and provide public interest information. SIGN AREA COMPUTATION The new method of calculating sign size of free standing signs with two or more sign faces or cabinets would have applicants count the open space between them and pay $1.60 per square foot for this space when applying for a permit. Such space would also be in- cluded in the maximum sign footage allowed. This has the unintentional affect of dictating design and the placement of sign modules. It creates a serious new problem for two current applications. DIRECTIONAL SIGNS The existing ordinance allows such a sign to be 33% larger than the new ordinance. Four square feet is a very small surface to say "ENTRANCE" with an arrow large enough so that 30 mph traffic can read it in time to make a safe decision to turn. Yet the new ordinance syas the size should be reduced to three square feet. Twelve square feet will cause no additional clutter, yet will pro- vide safe, useful information to traffic. TIME AND TEMPERATURE SIGNS The new ordinance places a limit on the size of these units in allowed zones. This limit is an extension of a special amendment to the ordinance a few years back to allow the two specific bank signs in the downtown. The size limitation which was carefully drawn then, because it was an exception to the projecting sign limitation, should not be im- posed on a business wanting a time and temperature on a free standing sign in a C2 or CH zone. The time and temperature unit should merely be allowed and fall within the sign size regulations of that particular lot and zone. 3R3 Mayor McDonald & Council Members February 5, 1985 Page 4 We don't suggest that this is a complete or comprehensive listing of the more restrictive provisions. They are merely the most obvious problems that came to our attention after spending several hours reviewing the proposal. The following are provisions of the existing ordinance which have posed significant problems for Iowa City businesses in the past. They are listed because they are also included in the new ordinance and we believe you will want to review them to be certain that the problems they generate are out- weighed by the alleged benefits. PERMIT FEES Iowa City has the highest fees in Iowa and we have encountered none higher in the country. They were increased 400% in 1982, and were very high before that. This is a significant hardship on small businesses. We have been involved in jobs where the permit to do a $300.00 sign repaint would be $160.00, or the permit cost of a $270.00 installation would be $120.00. Since Iowa City counts both sides of a double faced sign in its computations, its $.80/sq. ft. fee is actually $1.60/sq. ft.! This compares to the following rates of surrounding communities as of our January 1983 survey: Cedar Rapids . . . . . $ .10 per square feet Muscatine . . . . . . $10.00 flat fee Waterloo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .10 per square feet .30 per square feet Davenport . • • • • • • ' ' ' '. . . 10.00 maximum fee Dubuque . . . . . • • • ' ' ' ' ' 10.00 flat fee Vinton . .10 per square feet Marion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . PROHIBITION OF FREE STANDING SIGNS ON CORNERS We can understand the sight obstructions caused by a monument sign (by definition a monument sign is low), but a free standing sign must be 10' above grade. As such it creates no obstruction. The ordinance could supportstoaccomplish a maximumlofytwo98,'adiameter pipes the free standing sign supp in this area. The rule will otherwise create a real hardship for a corner filling station type operation. The 20' triangle will put this free standing sign in the middle of their drive. 323 Mayor McDonald & Council Members February 5, 1985 Page 5 FREE STANDING SIGNS IN INDUSTRIAL ZONES These are limited to 50 square feet in size by the current ordinance. The less commercial zones are allowed 125 square feet. Industrial signs should be allowed to be at least as large as lesser zones. It's interesting to note that such a lot could have a sign 44% larger advertising a business down the street but not its own busi- ness. WINDOW SIGNS Permanent window signs are limited to four square feet. This is so small as to render them almost useless. Temporary window signs are limited to 25% of the window. Both these regulations serve very little purpose and are admittedly very difficult to enforce. The regulation also toys with con- stitutional guarantees of free speech. MAXIMUM SIZE OF FREE STANDING SIGNS A limitation of 125 square feet for a free standing sign is too strict. We agree with the importance of an overall limit, but for a large lot, the arbitrary 125 square feet is unreasonably small. It places a particular hardship on the typical franchise and national retail concern that ship signs all over the country. Please keep in mind that the sign size is already limited by length of frontage. We do not suggest changing this in any way. A 50% increase in the maximum will accommodate the average Wendy's, Aldo's, Goodyear, Wards, McDonald's, Kmart sign without any corresponding problems whatsoever. FASCIA SIGNS Limiting fascia signs to 10% of their wall in C2 and CH zones pro- vides little, if any benefit and thus an unnecessary hardship. Fascia signs are not separate structures, so they do not create any obstruction or in no way violate free space and air. They are merely a way of decorating an existing structure. Although there is a good arguement for only confining a fascia sign to the parameters of the existing wall, we suggest that a reasonable compromise would be 1/3 of the wall to which they are attached. This maintains good proportions but allows a business to use a wall surface for signage rather than going to the expense of building a more costly and more obstructive free standing sign. 3R3 Mayor McDonald & Council Members February 5, 1985 Page 6 ONE TIME SIGN ERECTORS LICENSE This is a very unique ordinance provision. It allows a person with no demonstration of qualifications to build a free standing structure to withstand 30 lbs/sq. ft. loading. We believe the citizens of Iowa City would be better protected if a licensed erector were required just as they are for plumbing, electrical and other construction projects. ELECTRICAL PERMIT The ordinance requires a sign erector to get an electrical permit for a sign requiring electricity. Although this sounds reason- able at first blush, we believe that the procedure followed by most other cities is more practical. Sign erectors should be prohibited from making a final hook-up to an electrical service. This should be the responsibility of a licensed electrical firm who, in most cases, would be familiar with the electrical service in the building. The sign erector should be required to list on its permit applica- tion, the name of the electrical contractors making the connections. This would give the building department the information necessary to see that an electrical permit is taken out by the appropriately qualified electrical contractor. Thanks very much for the opportunity to present these ideas. Please keep in mind that time and space prohibits a complete discussion of the issues in this letter. We would be pleased to visit with anyone regarding them. Cordially, NESPER SIGN ADVERTISING, VERTISING, INC.

The Company has consistently maintained an Iowa municipality, in the absence of specific statutory authority, does not have the power to levy a tax. A franchise fee or rental fee based on a percentage of gross receipts is clearly a tax, and, as such, is invalid and unenforceable. The bases for the Company's resistance to the fee is the attempt to make the Company a tax collector absent legal authority and, perhaps more importantly, the resulting increase in utility rates to our Iowa City customers. The Company recognizes the City Council's desire to get the issue before the voters, and so has stated that if the Council enacts ordinances which contain provisions for a franchise or rental fee it will remain neutral in a referendum held to approve them, subject to certain conditions set out in our letter of October 31, 1984, being agreeable to the City. Upon execution of that letter by the City, we will become so committed. The Company's position is not to be construed as being in favor of any such franchise or rental fee. The Memorandum of January 25, 1985, contains an assumption that the Company has no objection as to how the fee revenues are used. Since a city's power to impose fees is limited to amounts necessary to compensate the city for providing a particular service, revenues raised in excess of those amounts would be suspect. There is no intent on the part of the Company to waive any objection it might legally have to a use of the revenues which the Company believes to be beyond the authority or power of the City to exercise. Until such a use or uses are established by the City, we would not be in a position to determine what action we might take as to a particular use.

KARR I RE: Melrose Lake Rezoning CITY CLERK (3) Dear Mayor and Council Members: j I have been asked to respond to a letter and memorandum from Mr. Jeffrey A. Smith concerning the Melrose Lake rezoning. i have several comments concerning the memorandum. They are as follows: 1. The memorandum is unsigned and its authorship is unidentified other than stating that it was I'... pre- pared by the Civil Litigation Clinic of the College of Law ...." We therefore do not know the names of the authors or their training and experience in municipal and zoning law and litigation. 2. I do not think that the authors of this memo- randum have complete knowledge of the unique and special facts involved in this situation. There is, for example, no discussion of the fact that the proposed rezoning of the Williams' property could trigger default on financial obligations which would result in foreclosure of existing mortgages and therefore probably loss of all investment to date as well as potential further and additional per- sonal liability on the part of Terence and Glenys Williams. 3. There is no discussion in the memorandum of the staff recommendations on this matter and the planning and zoning commission recommendations. I believe that proceeding to rezone this property in face of adverse staff and P and Z recommendations would be important evidence against the city in any lawsuit alleging a taking. 4. The facts here are that a rezoning would not just "reduce" the fair market value of the Williams' j property but would we think remove all reasonable eco- nomic use thereof. We think the course in looking at i reasonable economic use will consider the purchase price and ncing of hpdevelopment.ell as the costs and economicrealitiesof 3a� A City Council of Iowa City February 21, 1985 Page 2 5. The memorandum does not discuss the impact of state regulations on the Williams' property. [9e do not think that Iowa City zoning regulations would be considered by the courts in isolation. We think an important factor here is the interaction of city and state regulations. After all, when the constitution says that private property shall not be taken for public use without just compen- sation first being made (Constitution, State of Iowa Article I, Section 18) it is not referring only to one level of government. We believe that the interaction of state and municipal regulation would be looked at as a whole in assessing whether or not a taking had occurred. I do not intend by this letter to criticize the memorandum submitted by the Civil Litigation Clinic as such. The authors of the memorandum do recognize that there are limits on the zoning power and that the taking can occur and that municipalities can have lia- bility for such a taking. As indicated above, however, I do not think that the memorandum completely analyzes the issues and I certainly do not think that the memo- randum should be relied upon by the city in making its decision.

That is an oversimplification of a complex problem, but it does recognize a groundswell of public concern. The decisions you are facing are difficult ones that will have long-term effects on many people. In deciding whether to support the proposed ordinance downzoning the Neuzil, Williams, and Oakcrest properties, would you consider not only the issue of protection of rights, but also the practical problems created by limited access, crowding, and overdevelopment? Access is currently a severe problem in the Herlocke/Weeber issue the Council is also addressing. Full development of the Neuzi]/Williams properties at current zoning could create future bottlenecks that would be even more severe and costly to resolve. Access is a problem on both the east and west sides of these properties: a single access to Iowa City from the east; access only through University Heights from the west. Access to the Neuzil property only through University Heights presents this city with the prospect of substantial expenses for street improvements and additional police and traffic control without any increase in the tax base to pay for these costs or opportunity to review and affect the plan for development. If the positions were reversed for the two cities, I suspect that the Iowa City Council would be most distressed. Crowding is directly related to zoning level. An Iowa City staff report summarizes current and projected population under current zoning for 17 districts in the city. (See enclosure for reference.) The district in which the Neuzil/Williams properties lie currently has the highest population and would have the third highest population of the 17 districts, if all were developed to their fullest potential under current zoning. But what about the ratio of people per acre in each district? Since districts differ in area, dividing the projected total population into the total acres in each district allows direct comparisons. In 12 of the 17 districts, the ratio is 7.0 or below. The ratio for district V (of which the Neuzil/Williams properties represent about 21 of the 49 undeveloped acres), the ratio is 14! Unless downzoned, this area will become more than twice the density of twelve of the other sixteen districts. (The other 4 exceeding 7.0 were ratios of 7.2, 9.2, 9.6, and 8.1.) When considering the impact of crowding, the fact that district V is immediately adjacent to the stadium, fieldhouse, hospital and University housing and classrooms should not be overlooked. Many residents in University Heights share the concerns of their neighbors in Iowa City about the effects of high density on residential neighborhoods. Given the number of multiple family units recently completed, currently under construction, or in the planning stage, overdevelopmentis a likely prospect. A cycle of empty units, neglected and deteriorating property, increasingly transient occupation of units, and reduced property values has occurred in many cities. Controlled rather than concentrated development is an appropriate response. Thank you for taking these facts into consideration. I have been asked to present these concerns on behalf of the University Heights City Council, which has been following your deliberations with concern and a recognition of the complexity of the problems you face. Please seriously consider supporting the downzoning of the Neuzil and Williams properties. Respectfully, ��)) ' Joe M.

Showalter date: NOV 1984 d re.Overview of N.O.S.P, a t e . September 28, 1984 P1IBLIC LIBRARY The neighborhood open space plan (NOSP) has been developed for the following reasons: 1. To study present and future needs for open space in the Iowa City community. 2. To identify neighborhood districts in Iowa City which are deficient of public open space for residents. 3. To assure that present and future neighborhood districts in Iowa City will contain sufficient public open space for the recreational pursuits of its residents. NOSP was developed under the premise that a neighborhood open space should be in a one-half mile radius (reasonable walking distance) of every citizen in the district and be approximately 2.5 acres per every 1,000 residents. Two -point -five acres per 1,000 residents is the standard figure for neigh- borhood parks (open space) as recommended by the National Recreation and Park Association. The open space should feature a lawn, picnic site, tree/shrub landscaped areas and play equipment for passive and active leisure activities. A play field of 200' by 200' minimum, with a slope not exceeding 5% (preferably under 2%) should also be included in such open spaces. The Neighborhood Park Service Areas identified in the 1978 Iowa City Com- prehensive Plan (page 101) provided the initial reference for the devel- opment of NOSP. The designation of districts and their boundaries on the NOSP were established according to present available open spaces and existing parks in each district and adjacent areas. In addition, the size and location of districts took into consideration the land topography and the natural and constructed boundaries. It is also necessary to note that land located outside the corporate City limits was excluded from the NOSP. iOnce the districts were established, the need for neighborhood open space was calculated. The calculation was derived from figures on the districts' gross acreage, current and projected population, undeveloped areas and existing open space. Districts 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13 and 16 show a deficit of open space for neighborhood residents. DES/dh city of iowa city 3a6 Enccrri 4o P,, -K5 me, . 4�8/py 3zG DISTRICT V 1.

This facility provided entertainment and enjoyment for its thousands of visitors, and regardless of its condition, it played a part in making Iowa City the well-rounded and diversified community that it is. Though the decision to close the Iowa City zoo was an emotional and debatable issue, it seemed to be the only alternative at the time. Since becoming a resident of Iowa City in the fall of 1981, j I have talked to a number of Iowa City residents, and I have found that interest in a zoo still exists. The people that I questioned all expressed regret that the zoo no longer was available. My feeling is that if Iowa City were to have a small and excellent zoo, the residents would support it enthusiastically. I am approaching the council because I want to make a proposal for permission to explore the possibilities of establishing a zoo again in Iowa City. I emphasize that I am not asking for the city of Iowa City to build and fund the zoo. I realize that there are many more urgent needs for city funds, and that p you must consider them first. I I have been involved in the zoo and exotic animal field for almost 10 years, and I know a great deal about establishing and running a zoo. If it is done correctly, it is not an expensive proposition, either to establish or run one. I can cite examples of both small and large zoos that evolved from nothing more than an 18th century menagerie to become a E source of community pride and make a significant contribution i � 3ay Page 2 to the social and economic welfare of a city. Examples of such zoos would be the Henry Doorly zoo in Omaha, the Bismarck zoo in Bismarck, North Dakota, and even the world-famous San Diego zoo and wild animal park. I emphasize again that I am not proposing anything on a large scale. I used the words "small and excellent" because that describes best what I have in mind. A carefully selected variety of animals native to North America, perhaps, would j, be excellent educationally for the children of the community. A variety of species could be included easily. I have many contacts at a number of zoos and could even obtain animals on loan so that Iowa City residents could view them. I do not intend to include animals such as lions or elephants. Such animals are expensive to maintain and generally are the reason that the cost of a zoo is prohibitive to a small city. A well- run zoo can and should be self-supporting. I am asking the council if the possibility of use of existing land in City Park exists. If the citizens are interested, I wish to establish a non-profit foundation for the purpose of raising funds to establish and run the zoo, but I must first know whether there is a suitable site for such a facility. I feel that because of past tradition, City Park would be the best place for a new zoo. Its accessability is excellent, the iterrain and the resident vegetation make it possible to build exhibits with little effort, and people in Iowa City will be more apt to be aware of it in that location. I i If I am to proceed I need approval from the council to at least j` pursue the matter. I know from experience that in other cases such as the zoo in Bismarck that the people of the community came forward and funded the entire zoo, both construction and operation. I feel that it is entirely possible for Iowa City to do the same. Page 3 I will be glad to asnwer any questions about my specific ideas on this matter. I am even willing to submit architectural plans if the council would wish it. I personally would like to see the tradition of a zoo reinstated and I am willing to give of myself to achieve it. �Sp`i1'ncer Willi G rsonde 115 Montrose Avenue Iowa City, Iowa Phone: 338-9853 i 3a9 i i j i I i Page 3 I will be glad to asnwer any questions about my specific ideas on this matter.

IOWA CITY, IOWA 52240 (319) 356-5000 April 10, 1985 Mr. William Gersonde 115 Montrose Avenue Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mr. Gersonde: The City Council received and placed on file your letter pro- posing that a zoo be reestablished in Iowa City. At its informal meeting of April 8, 1985, the Council discussed this matter and decided that it is necessary that your proposal be rejected. As you mention in your letter, there are many urgent matters which the Council is facing at this time. not the least of which is the cutback in financial support for cities. I am aware that you are proposing to establish a non-profit foundation to raise funds for a zoo. However, there is always the possibility of the city having to fill in should private funds fall short. At a time when the Council is trying to maintain the present level of services with less funds, we cannot take on addition responsibili- ties. In addition, many citizens, including some members of the City Council, object to the concept of restraining animals in a zoo environment. Thank you for presenting this idea to the Council.

I1-13)." The 1983 Update also retains the findings and policies relating to the environment as described in p. 45-51 of the Iowa City Plan. The attached addendum to the 1983 Update amplifies and extends the environ- mental policies for Iowa City adopted in 1978 and, by reference, in 1983. Adopted ;` IOWA CITY URBAN ENVIRONMENT POLICIES The features which make the City of Iowa City such an attractive place to live and work have been identified and it has been determined that the following elements are of importance when considering what features of Iowa City should be protected and preserved: 1. Iowa City is a very special city combining many of the benefits of small town living with the cultural and recreational opportunities of a large cosmopolitan area. 2. A number of elements both natural and constructed, contribute to the atmosphere of this community, and it is important to protect and preserve these elements. 3. These elements include not only natural features but also neighborhoods, scenic vistas, entranceways to Iowa City, public areas and buildings. 4. These elements and the interaction between these elements provide a sense of community and integrity to the City and contribute to the general aesthetic and visual impression projected by the City. 5. The economic and social welfare of Iowa City is sustained and enhanced by the sense of community and aesthetic values provided by the natural and constructed environment. Since the City Council is vested with certain powers to foster the health, safety and general welfare of the public, and to protect public interests, the policies listed below are adopted to maintain and enhance the quality of life in the Iowa City community and to protect the public interest as it is affected by the elements described below. These policies are adopted as an amendment to the Environmental Policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Environmentally Sensitive Areas Definition: Environmentally sensitive areas are geographical areas containing naturai, ecologic, archaeological or aesthetic resources or features which are of value to the public and the destruction of which might result in the permanent or long-term loss of important public resources (such as mature woodlands), in economic loss, in hazards such as landslides or flooding, and in the long-term degradation of the environment. Examples of such environmentally sensitive areas include, but are not limited to, uncommon or unique geologic formations, natural stream corridors including floodplains, floodways and greenbelts of the Iowa River and associated creeks, natural stormwater deten- tion areas, bottom land and upland woods, steep slopes, areas of high passive recreational value for bird watching and observation of flowers and other plants and animals and areas containing a high concentration of ecologic and aesthetic features. i Environmentally sensitive areas may also be those identified as hazardous sites by an appropriate State or Federal agency. These sites may require special ( consideration and restriction in their development in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare. Rationale for Preservation: Iowa City was originally chosen as the seat for the Stateap a because of the natural beauty of the area with its steep wooded slopes and river bluffs. The exposed limestone bluffs along the Iowa .311.3 River are geologic formations which are rare in Iowa City, and which also provide interesting vegetation and wildlife habitat. Their destruction would result not only in the loss of this unusual landscape feature, but would also accelerate the erosion of the steep wooded slopes in the area, with possible resultant land slides and siltation. The Iowa City area was once heavily wooded, particularly along the river and creek beds. Few wooded areas now remain to provide diversity and other benefits. Northern Iowa City is one area where steep wooded slopes and ravines remain relatively untouched. Intensive development of such slopes destroys not only vegetation and wildlife habitats, but frequently results in erosion, mud slides, the filling in of ravines, and severe changes in drainage patterns. A crucial factor in the stabilization of steep slopes is the development of a stable drainage system. Degree of slope, soil type, vegetative cover, underly- ing geology and precipitation patterns determine the run-off patterns. Approxi- mately 35-40% of precipitation is not retained by the soil or used by plants, and will run off steep, wooded slopes. As the vegetative cover is disturbed by development, new drainage patterns develop which may result in the erosion of neighboring private and public property and cause downstream siltation affecting water quality. As a result costs may be incurred by private property owners and by the City to correct the problems created. Woodlands themselves are important moderators of climatic phenomena such as high winds and flooding, and help to protect watersheds from siltation and erosion due to heavy runoff or wind. The woodland floor acts as a filter to water percolating into ground water reservoirs or rivers. The woods also improve air quality by absorbing some air pollutants, and serve as noise buffers between residences and heavy noise generators such as interstate highways. Finally, woodlands in an urban environment provide recreational opportunities, and visual relief from the built landscape, adding to the quality of life and therefore the general welfare of any community. Rivers and creeks are the natural drainage channels of any area. As develop- ment increases and the impervious surface area increases, more and more surface water runs off directly into the creeks and rivers. The floodway and flood- plain of streams are the natural corridors for this water and should be maintained for its flow. If, in addition, vegetation is maintained along the river and creekbanks, more water can be absorbed and the risk of flooding is reduced. Also, the filtering affect of the floodplain soils will reduce the amount of sediment and chemicals entering the creeks and rivers and help to maintain water quality and to reduce the risks of flooding and erosion. If greenbelts are maintained along rivers and creeks they provide diversity of habitat and by their linear nature extensively affect adjacent development. Protection of the Iowa River and Ralston and Willow Creek floodplains will reduce the need for further extensive modifications of their channels in order to reduce flooding. Policy: It is the policy of the City of Iowa City to preserve and protect environmentally sensitive areas as identified by the City, and to develop measures to protect the public for those sites identified as environmental hazards by appropriate State or Federal agencies. 3'f.3 Buffer Areas and Doan Soace Definition and Rationale for Preservation: Buffers between land uses, such as commercial and residential, serve to screen one use from another, and help to decrease the adverse affects - such as noise, traffic, air pollution - of one use upon another. Buffers may also help to provide a transition between land uses. Buffers may be vegetative, such as a greenbelt of trees between an interstate highway and residential development; a solid fence screening a commercial use from a neighboring residential area; or a structure designed in such a way that the structure itself is oriented to act as a buffer to the adjacent land use. Transitional buffers provide an attractive transition between land uses such as those seen on Rocky Shore Drive with the gradation from river, to plantings along the sidewalk/bicycle trail, to single family residential development. Buffers provide diversity within the City, and, if vegetative in nature, have many of the beneficial effects of woodlands but on a smaller scale. Open space provides relief from urban development and opportunities for recreation. Open space may be unimproved natural areas, pocket parks, play- grounds, neighborhood or city-wide parks, storm water detention facilities, stream corridors or greenbelts. All these provide relief from continuous, contiguous development and the intensified extremes of temperature, increased air and noise pollution and the psychological stress associated with such development. As the City grows and develops, noise, water and air pollution increase and areas of open space and vegetation which help to alleviate these pollution problems decrease in size and number. Protection of existing open space is therefore vital in preventing the degradation of the Iowa City environment. Polic It is the policy of the City of Iowa City to preserve and promote the creatlon of buffer areas and open space as identified by the City. Neighborhoods and Structures Definition and Rationale for Preservation: Neighborhoods provide familiar surroundings - buildings, p aces to wa people - a sense of security and community stability. Neighborhoods may be private -a place where groups of individuals live; or they may be public - places where many people gather to enjoy the surroundings or to interact. It is within Iowa City's "private" neighborhoods that people find the benefits of small town living and in the ..public" neighborhoods that one can enjoy the diversity often found in a larger y• There are within Iowa City historic neighborhoods and structures which provide roots for the residents of the neighborhood and perpetuate a legacy of his- toric, architectural and cultural achievement for all of Iowa City. Some of i Iowa City's neighborhoods and structures, though not historic, provide an j identity for their residents which adds to the residents' sense of well-being. t Likewise, there are public places within Iowa City which have become unique gathering places for the people and add to the entire City's sense of commu- Y• 311.3 v 4 Policy; It is the policy of the City of Iowa City to preserve and protect the unique attributes of Iowa City's public and private neighborhoods, as identi- fied by the City, for the general welfare of the community at large. Entranceways to Iowa City Definitions and Rationale for Preservation: Entranceways to Iowa City are all e major oroug ares a ong w is peop a approach our city. These entrance- ways often provide the first impression one has of the City, informing the visitor and resident alike of the aesthetic values of the community. The visual impression projected of the City through its entranceways can contribute to the economic and social welfare of Iowa City by making it a more attractive place to live and work. Policy: It is the policy of the City of Iowa City to preserve and enhance the i entranceways to Iowa City. i Scenic Vistas Definitions and Rationale for Preservation: There are elements of Iowa City, i o na ura an cons ruc e , which are unique to the city and are open to 1 public view. People are reminded through these scenic vistas of the heritage of the community and the natural beauty of the land, Policv: It is the policy of the City of Iowa City to seek to ensure that certain unique features within Iowa City remain perpetually accessible to public view. i i 300 I CITY OF IOWA CITY CIVIC CENTER 410 E.

The transit fare is scheduled to increase from $.40 to $.50 effective July 1, 1985. The fare was last increased in FY83. The recent reduction in Federal and State Transit Assistance has increased reliance upon fare revenue and the local subsidy for funding of transit operations. 8. The monthly refuse collection rate is proposed to increase from $3.50 to $4.30. This rate increase will make the operation 100% self-funded. Therefore, for the first time, refuse collection operations will not require a subsidy of property tax monies from the General Fund. 9. Road Use Tax Revenues continue to lag behind the annual operating costs for Traffic Engineering and for Streets, making it necessary again to fund a portion of these costs from property tax revenue. 10. Council approved the following expanded service level requests with the intent of improving efficiency of each respective division and/or because the division's request either assured non -property tax revenues to cover the cost or showed future off -setting cost savings that could balance the added costs. a. A file cabinet for each the City Attorney, Broadband Telecommunications, Streets System Maintenance and Forestry/Horticulture, total $890. b. Compensation for Broadband Telecommunication interns that work on a regular basis broadcasting City programs, $300. c. An Assistant Finance Director to assume responsibilities of risk management and investments, total salary and benefits of $33,163. d. An Administrative Clerk/Typist to do the clerical work for the Fire Department, total salary and benefits of $18,891. e. Four hi -rise harness packs for firefighters to safely carry cumbersome hoses through multi -story buildings, total $400. f. An electronic arson detector to aid firefighters investigating causes of a fire, total $400. g. Add one-half time Recreation Supervisor, to make a current position full-time, for the purpose of establishing programs for volunteers, community -wide events, and attaining funding grants. h. Personnel additions in the Equipment Maintenance Division. Two positions were added as a result of staffing needs for the maintenance of buses. The complexity of repair work on the City's newer buses and the operation of the maintenance area in the new transit facility necessitate an upgrade in the maintenance work now being provided for buses. These recommendations result from a study of transit maintenance operations which was completed in FY85. i. A toxic gas meter for Pollution Control, $1,500. j. Add $10,000 to the Assistant Water Superintendent's salary for the purpose of training this position for the Superintendent's position. 11. Personnel costs are based on the settlement of contracts with two of the three employee unions. Refer to the Budget -in -Brief for details of the contracts that have been settled. AFSCME represents all employees but administrative, police and fire employees. AFSCME settled in January 1985 with a two-year contract, July 1, 1985 through June 30, 1987. International Association of Firefighters, in February 1985, agreed to a one-year contract, July 1, 1985 through June 30, 1986. The Police Labor Relations Organization has until March 15, 1985 to settle negotiations for their contract that expires June 30, 1985. The City Council has yet to decide on salary and benefits for administrative and confidential employees. 12. The estimated year-end fund balance for the General Fund in FY86 is higher than the balance that the City has tried to maintain in the past. The increase in the balance results primarily from surplus funds from FY84. It is financially prudent to increase the year-end balance since financial projec- tions indicate that the City is facing lean years, starting in FY86. 13. Iowa City was in the forefront in its adoption of a formal fiscal policy in 1973. That policy dealt with capital expenditures. A recommendation from the recent review of Iowa City's budget for the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award was that specific financial policies which guide the prepara- tion of the operating budget should be stated in the budget. This has been done in the section entitled Financial Policies for the Operating Budget. These policies are not new, but are a summation of the policies used in past years. The two major items in the policy statement deal with the prepara- tion of a balanced budget such that : 1) available resources and anticipated expenditures are equal; �, _____-..,-repo A halanra iQ maintained at a level which will fund cash flow requirements OPERATING BUDGET BUDGET IN BRIEF Consistent with the practice of previous years, all revenue estimates are conservative. The uncertainty of Federal and State revenues continues to require a conservative approach. In budget preparation it is impor- tant to ensure that the level of revenue projected will actually materialize. The expenditure budget for all operating funds in FY86 is $29,868,699. Many reductions were made in depart- mental budget requests. In particular, departments were not allowed to budget for emergency costs. Because of this, budgets may need to be amended more frequently. It is deemed more appropriate to amend a budget based on actual need rather than to allocate funding for every eventuality which, in most instances, will not occur. GENERAL GOVERNMENTAL OPERATIONS General Governmental Operations consist of the General Fund, the Debt Service Fund, the Trust & Agency Fund, the Equipment Maintenance Fund, and the Special Revenue Funds. A. PROPERTY TAX The City's property tax request of $10,494,048 for FY86 will be levied as follows: *Includes monies and credits of $28,816 and military credit of $13,800. **Includes monies and credits of $27,620 (one-half, $13,810, was received in FY84) and military credit of $13,800.

The majority of the increase resulted from real property growth (new construction). The taxable valuation is computed by applying the State's rollback factor to the total assessed valuation. The rollback factor is designed to limit taxable valuation for the State, as a whole, to a 4% annual increase. The County Auditor makes adjustments to property valuations and applies the rollback factors, and property credits to arrive at the taxable valuations. Iowa City's taxable valuation increased from $888,838,026 as of January 1, 1983, to $959,316,614 as of January 1, 1984. This is an 7.9% increase in taxable valuation. In preparing this operating budget, property taxes were held to a 6% increase for the average residen- tial property owner, over FY85 taxes. The increase in taxable valuation for residential property was 4%. This is due to the rollback factor rising by 4% from FY85. The following chart shows how property taxes for the average residential property will be affected by the property tax levy recom- mended in the proposed budget. The average residential assessed valuation used in this chart is based on information obtained from the City Assessor.

FY85 was a reassessment year. The taxable valuation in FY86 the increased 4%, the amount that the rollback factor increased. It was therefore possible to increase tax levy by only 2% in order to hold the increase for a homeowners actual tax dollars to a 6% increase over FY85 taxes. 2 The rollback factors are computed by the State. They are intended to equalize the total state-wide property values at a 4% increase each year. For FY85, the rollback was .698754 on residential property and is .724832 for FY86. The rollback on commercial properties was .917230 for FY85 and is .954242 for FY86. The City also will receive revenue from taxes on agricultural buildings and. land located within the City limits. As provided by State law, the tax on this property is $3.00375 per $1000 of assessed value. The assessed taxable value for agricultural property is $3,165,122 and will yield revenue of $9,508. Property taxes which fund General Fund operations include the following levies: FY85 FY86 General $6,901,472 $7,247,084 Tort Liability 147,338 355,300 Trust 6 Agency 673,852 664,657 Ag. Bldgs b Land 9 386 9 508 37i132n81B $ These tax askings will increase 7.0% ($544,501) in FY86. Excluding the substantial increase in the Tort Liability Levy for increased insurance costs, the tax askings increase by 4.4%. Another source of revenue used for General Fund operation is the Monies and Credits replacement fund. Formerly a state law levied a tax on certain monies and credits and monied capital. This tax was repealed and the State established a replacement fund which provides to cities the approximate amount of revenue being received at the time the tax was repealed. In FY86, the City will receive $28,816. A Military Service Credit replacement has been established by the State which returns to cities part of the property tax lost to the Military Service Tax Credit. In FY86, this fund will return $13,800 to Iowa City for General Fund purposes. These monies are appropriated to cities by the State Treasurer in proportion to the money allocated by the State for the military service tax credit. The General Fund property tax levy is used for the support of many services, such as police, fire, library, park and recreation services. The levy cannot exceed $8.10 per $1000 of assessed valuation. The City also levies property tax for other purposes. These include Trust b Agency, Tort Liability, Transit and Debt Service. These funds can be utilized only for the purpose for which they are levied. The Trust 8 Agency property tax levy is used for the payment of pension and employee benefits. These include social security (FICA), the Iowa Public Employees Retirement System (IPERS), the Police and Fire Pension contributions, health insurance, life insurance, worker's compensation insurance premiums and unemployment compensation. State regulations allow cities to budget for FICA, (PERS, health insurance and life insurance under the Trust 6 Agency Levy only when the $8.10 maximum levy has 4 been reached in the General Levy. In FY86, the General Levy is below the maximum levy limit, so Iowa City will be paying most benefit costs out of the General Levy. Police and Fire Pension, worker's compensation insurance premiums, and unemployment compensation costs will be paid from the Trust & Agency Levy in FY86. A special levy, Tort Liability, is provided to pay the cost of certain insurance coverage. This includes comprehensive general liability, motor vehicle liability, public official liability, errors and omissions, and false arrest insurance. The tort liability levy of $355,300 reflects the cost of insurancepremiums and anticipated judgments for FY86. Insurance companies are raising the premiums for business liability coverages. Iowa City has experienced a recent 30% increase in premiums. The Transit Levy was established in FY84 at $.18 per $1,000 assessed valuation. State law permits the use of a transit levy for funding the operation of a municipal transit system. The levy cannot exceed $.54 per $1000 of assessed valuation. The intent of instituting the Transit Levy was to allow for the phase out of Federal Revenue Sharing for transit funding. The levy will increase in FY86 from $.18 to $.36. Funding from Federal Revenue Sharing for transit operations will drop from $240,451 in FY85 to $67,072 in FY86. Federal Revenue Sharing funding has been approved by Congress through September 1986, which means the City may need to consider another increase in the Transit levy in FY87 in the event that Revenue Sharing is not extended. The Debt Service levy provides funds for the payment of the principal and interest on general obliga- tion bonds of the City. It can also be utilized to fund the payment of any judgments against the City, unless other funding sources are provided by State law. This levy increased in FY85 because the City is now paying on bonds issued in FY83. Another bond issue is planned for spring 1985. This results in an increase in debt service costs for FY86. B. GENERAL FUND - REVENUES OTHER THAN PROPERTY TAX 1. Intergovernmental Revenue: Assistance from other governmental agencies is a major source of revenue. This includes both Federal and State assistance. Some of these funds are distributed according to population. Iowa City's popu- lation is 50,508, as reported in the 1980 Census. a. The bank franchise tax is a State tax levied on the net income of financial institutions. The State retains 55% of this tax with the remainder divided with 60% to the city and 40% to the county within which it originated. The FY86 projection of $40,000 is based upon actual receipts in past years. b. Liquor profits are 10% of gross revenue of State liquor stores. In FY85, the estimate was based on $6.07 per capita ($306,584). In FY86 the estimate is $5.70 per capita ($287,896). 4 c. State Municipal Assistance distributes State revenues on a ratio of each city's population to total State population. This payment cannot exceed one-half of the city's property tax levy. The FY86 projection is based on $6.73 per capita ($339,919) This is $11,617 more than the amount used in the FY85 budget. Both the amount and continuation of the program in FY86 could be a topic of discussion for the State Legislature in the upcoming session. d. Beginning in 1981, Johnson County Regional Planning Commission (JCRPC) was replaced with the Johnson County Council of Governments (JCCOG) and the City of Iowa City was made responsible for maintenance of all financial records. The JCCOG budget is included in the City's budget. Total funding needed by JCCOG in FY86 amounts to $160,084 with Iowa City's share being $77,599. e. The FY86 projection for Federal Revenue Sharing is $572,267. This is the same amount as is being received in the current entitlement period. f. Road Use Tax collected by the State from the registration of motor vehicles, fuel tax, license fees and the use tax on motor vehicles, trailers and accessories and equipment is apportioned to each city basedupon a ratio of the city's population to all Iowa cities. The per capita estimate for FY86 is $32.50 ($1,641,510). This is the same amount as budgeted in FY85. 2. Other Revenue: The City establishes services charges both by contract and fee schedules. The Fire Department revenues include the Fire Protection Contract with the University of Iowa ($314,512 to the General Fund and $92,810 to the Trust d Agency Fund for a total of $467,322) and Library services include $116,585 for services to Johnson County, 10% of the Library's operating budget. Recreation revenue of $365,078 includes admis- sions, lessons, entry fees and pool revenue. Other revenue is derived from activities such as police escort service, animal control fees, zoning and subdivision fees. In FY86, revenue from licenses and permits is budgeted at $266,341. Most of this revenue will cone from building and rental permits or beer and liquor permits and licenses. Other sources of revenue are peddler's, electrician's, plumber's and animal licenses and burial permits. The FY86 budgeted revenue from fines and forfeitures of $308,147 includes $145,000 for parking fines, library fines ($40,088) which are assessed for overdue or damaged property, and funds collected by the magistrate's court ($123,059) for violation of the City or State codes such as motor vehicle violations and animal control violations. Use of money and property revenue comes from various sources. Interest income is projected at a 10.25'% interest yield ($68,982). General Fund miscellaneous revenues are composed of refunds, reimbursements of expenses and damages, miscellaneous sales and commissions or concessions. The commission from the cable TV franchise fee is projected to be $80,000; this will be higher if the franchise fee increases to 5%. The remaining miscellaneous revenues total $52,297 for all 41 operating divisions, an average of $1,276 per division. C. GENERAL FUND -EXPENDITURES The proposed General Fund budget is $13,587,557 or an increase of 6.2% over the FY85 budget. Increases in the General Fund expenditure budget were minimized as much as possible because of limited revenues in the General Fund. A comparison of percentage changes by major classification of expenditure follows: 1. Personal Services Personnel costs are primarily controlled by collective bargaining agreements. Employees of the City are represented by three unions: AFSCME (Local /183), the Police Labor Relations Organization of Iowa City, and the International Association of Firefighters (Local /610). The majority of City employees is represented by AFSCME. This Union is comprised of two bargaining units, one composed exclusively of Library employees and the other composed of employees in all other departments. All supervisory, confidential, temporary and other employees who are excluded by law in Chapter 20 of the Code of Iowa are excluded from the units and from the terms, conditions or applica- tion of the Agreement. Sworn police officers and firefighters are also excluded. AFSCME settled with a two year contract that calls for a 4% across-the-board salary increase each year, some modifications to the health insurance plan, single dental coverage, a freeze on the value of sick -leave payout at the termination of employment with the City, change in vacation accrual for 15-20 years of service to be the same as that of Administrative/Confidential employees with the same number of years. Sworn police officers are represented by the Police Labor Relations Organization of Iowa City. The bargaining unit is composed of all Iowa City police officers. Exempt from the unit are the police chief, deputy chief, captains, sergeants, and other confidential, administrative, supervisory and less than half-time employees. A one year contract is in effect with the Police Union for July 1, 1984, through June 30, 1985. Negotiations are currently in progress for FY86. The firefighters are represented by the International Association of Firefighters. The bargaining unit is composed of firefighters, lieutenants, and captains. Exempt from the unit are the fire chief, fire marshal and battalion chiefs. 11 Actual Estimate % Budget % FY84 FY85 Change FY86 Change Personal Services f 7,393,671 f 7,998,049 8.2% 8,590,729 7.4% Commodities 518,217 574,235 10.8% 591,033 2.9% Services 6 Charges 2,344,801 2,551,459 8.8% 2,581,456 1.2% Capital Outlay 576,857 796,298 38.0% 748,632 (6.0)% TrTOTALrs 1,085,757 26.2% ,7Tfl 615,bTC ,8� 10.1X 1.

A specific proposal for salary increases for these employees will be decided by the City Council. The percentage increase between the FY86 estimate and FY85 Budget is based upon projected `Salary increases and projected costs for fringe benefits. The salary projection includes both a July 1st across the board increase and the salary adjustments (step increases) which are scheduled to occur during the fiscal year. Pending contract settlements may necessitate revisions in the salary budget amounts. Council approved changes that affect the personal services in the General Fund. In FY85, the City will change the part-time City Attorney position to full-time basis, adding $56,195 in FY86. (This will also reduce the services and charges budget by $47,000 for a net budget increase of $9,195.) Expanded Service level requests that were approved by Council include $300 in the Broadband Telecommu- nications budget for interns, $33,163 in the Finance Administration budget for an Assistant Finance Director, and $18,891 in the Fire budget for an Administrative Clerk/Typist. 2. Commodities The previous chart indicates that commodity costs show a modest increase in FY86. Commodities mainly consist of office and cleaning supplies, and maintenance and repair materials for buildings, streets and equipment. Generally, supplies and materials are projected at a 3% increase over FY85. Police patrol fuel costs decreased because of low fuel prices and fuel-efficient cars. 3. Services and Charges Services and Charges cover expenses for insurance premiums, payments to Aid to Agencies, printing, various service contracts, and gas, electricity and telephone. Overall, the budget for services and charges rises only 1% over FY85. $47,00n was deducted from legal services as a result of hiring a full-time City Attorney. Some items are budgeted at higher increases: insurance premiums at 30%, gas and electricity up 6%, telephone up 20%. Payments to Aid to Agencies as determined by Council for FY86, are as follows: Big Brothers/Big Sisters $ 24,091 Crisis Center Intervention 8,460 Crisis Center Emergency 8,902 Domestic Violence Project 12,000 Elderly Services Agency 27,836 HACAP 2,277 Mayor's Youth Employment 29,000 Willow Creek Neighborhood Ctr. 9,400 Rape Victim Advocacy 9,865 United Action for Youth 38 592 TOTAL AGENCY FUNDING 3110,423 Contingency fund 3 468 TOTAL FUNDS Mff 4. Capital Outlay Capital outlay expenditures will decrease in FY86. Major capital outlay expenditures include $73,200 for upgrading the current computer system, $30,000 for micro -computer purchases, $27,000 for replacing several items in the fire department, $18,847 for recreation capital outlay, $92,000 for replacing police vehicles, $310,000 for the asphalt overlay program, $129,280 for Library materials and $12,000 in various budgets for typewriter replacement. The computer system upgrade will continue the funding for this first phase which was funded in the FY85 Budget. The budgeted micro -computer purchases continue the effort began in the FY85 Budget to provide funding for the purchase of micro -computers for various departments and a computer system for the Police Department. A typewriter replacement plan is scheduled for FY86; the new typewriters will be allocated to the major typing position in various departments with the old typewriters transferred to lower use areas. Council approved expanded service level requests for filing cabinets, total cost of $890. S. Transfers This includes primarily the General Fund subsidies for Transit operations, the Airport and JCCOG. It also includes a transfer to Transit in the amount of the transit property tax levy. State law mandates that property taxes received from the transit levy be receipted into the General Fund and then transferred to transit operations. The large increase in transfers is due to the increase in the Transit Levy from $159,991 in FY85 to $345,354 in FY86. The operating subsidy for Transit increased from $354,653 in FY85 to $446,973 in FY86. That large increase was offset by the elimination of an operating subsidy for refuse collection in FY86. It is proposed that the refuse monthly rate be increased to make refuse 100% self-funded from user fees; no subsidy is budgeted for refuse in FY86 while a subsidy of $96,195 was budgeted in FY85. D. GENERAL FUND YEAR-END BALANCE The estimated General Fund year-end balance for June 30, 1986 is computed as follows: 6-30-84 Actual Balance $1,826,381 Less: 6-30-84 Encumbrances (102,252) 6-30-84 Carryovers and Amendments 133 417 Adjusted 6-30-84 Balance FY85: Estimated Receipts $12,762,825 Estimated Expenditures 12,192,193 29 988) 6-30-84 Estimated Balance 1, 4 FY86: Budgeted Receipts $13,213,548 Budgeted Expenditures 13,587,557 (374,009) Less Reserved Balances: Broadband Telecommunications (23,920) Parkland Acquisition Reserve (241,734) Recreation Facility Reserve (62,450) Deposits Escrow3( 0,000) Estimated Unreserved 6-30-86 Balance The estimated 6-30-86 balance is higher than the $700,000 balance that Fund budget has been the City has tried to maintain in using the assumption that the past. For the past several years, the the unappropriated year end balance would General be approximately $700,000. prepared This balance is needed to provide for cash flow in the first quarter of the new fiscal year due to the fact that property taxes are not how expenditures have exceeded received until October. The following chart shows cash flow needs or receipts in the first quarter of recent years. July/September July/September Shortfall Fiscal Year Receipts Expenditures in Receipts FY85 $1,814,963 $3,722,020 ($1,901,057) FY84 $1,203,122 $3,123,522 ($1,920,400) FY83 $1,354,860 $2,694,988 ($1,340,128) FY82 $ 964,788 $2,402,406 ($1,437,618) FY81 $1,398,018 $2,482,549 ($1,084,531) 9 The $700,000 year end balance now provides for less than 50% of the shortfall. The remainder is funded V1 internally by balances in other funds until property taxes are received in October. It is becoming ${� increasingly difficult each year to fund the shortfall internally as the other available fund balances previously used to fund the shortfall continue to decrease. Three prime examples of fund balance used in the past are the Transit Replacement Reserve, the Pollution Control Operating Fund and the Parking Operating Fund. The Transit Reserve has been depleted due to its funding of the new Transit Facility. The Pollution Control Fund balance will be used for future sewer plant improvements and the Parking fund balance will be used for parking facility improvements. The increase in the ending balance is due primarily to an available excess unreserved balance that existed at the end of FY84. This excess balance resulted because actual expenditures were less than budgeted and actual receipts were more than budgeted. The scheduled rate increases in the Transit fares and in Refuse fees allow for a reduction in the operat- ing subsidies for Transit and Refuse which is paid from the General Fund. If these increased rates are not approved by the City Council, the operating subsidies will need to be increased by $196,644 which will also reduce the General Fund ending balance by the same amount to a revised balance of $631,927. It should be noted that the FY86 operating Budget for the General Fund still shows a shortfall in avail- able revenues for the funding of budgeted expenditures. For this reason, very few expanded service levels for General Fund activities were approved. The approval of expanded service levels only increases the potential annual revenue shortfalls in future years. Council only approved those expanded service levels that have probable and estimable revenues to fund them and those that greatly improve the efficiency of a divisions work. It should be the City's goal in the future to approve a balanced budget for the General Fund in which revenues equal expenditures. In this way, the City will be living within its means. Bond rating agencies look for signs of both current and future financial stability in establishing a City's bond rating. Frequent annual operating deficits will have a negative impact on a bond rating. Such deficits indicate that annual revenues cannot support annual expenditures and show a potential for the erosion of a City's financial stability. 10 I The following bar chart shows how receipts have exceeded or fallen short of expenditures in the General Fund in past years and for future years' projections.

The projected unreserved' ending fund balance for the General Fund at 6-30-86, $828,571, is 6% of the total budgeted expenditures for the General Fund. The City will need to aim at this fund balance rather than the $700,000 balance in order to soften the blow of decreasing Federal assistance. E. DEBT SERVICE FUND This fund provides for the payment of the principal and interest on general obligations of the City. Funding is provided by the Debt Service Tax Levy and abatement from various Enterprise funds for their capital improvements which were funded by General Obligation Bonds. The tax levy experiences a substan- tial increase in tax dollars in FY86. The City's last bond issue was sold in December 1982. Bonds will be sold in 1985 to provide funding for capital improvements projects now in progress and projects sched- uled for the summer of 1985. The upcoming bond issue is projected to total $5 million and will provide funding for the following projects: Bridge Renovation Projects ($1,503,000), Clinton Street Reconstruc- tion ($171,000), Rundell/Dearborn Storm Sewer ($335,000), First Avenue Culvert ($180,000), Airport Runway Extension ($800,000), East Side Water Storage Tank ($1,053,000, abated by Water Revenues), various Special Assessment projects ($485,000, 50% abated by special assessment revenue), Airport T -Hangars ($220,000, abated by hangar rental income), various small projects ($253,000). F. TRUST AND AGENCY FUND This fund provides for the payment of pension and employee benefits. Funding is provided by the Trust and Agency Tax Levy. The costs covered by the Trust and Agency Levy in FY86 will include only the police and fire pension contributions, worker's compensation insurance premiums and unemployment compensation claims. The City will contribute 18.915% of all sworn police officers' salaries and 30.895% of all firefighters' salaries to the respective pension/retirement systems. G. OTHER FUNDS The Equipment Maintenance Fund provides maintenance for all City vehicles and equipment and rents vehicles to other City departments from a central vehicle pool. Funding is provided from the chargeback for the maintenance services and the rentals of vehicles. The Special Revenue Funds include JCCOG (Johnson County Council of Goverments), CDBG (Community Develop- ment Block Grant), Road Use Tax and Federal Revenue Sharing. The JCCOG fund is an agency fund as the City only acts as custodian for the fund and provides accounting records for the JCCOG organization. The CDBG Fund accounts for revenue from U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant programs and is restricted in use for eligible projects as defined by Federal regulations. The Road Use Tax Fund accounts for revenue from the State which is restricted to be used for only street maintenance, traffic engineering and street construction costs. In FY86, Road Use Tax revenues will fund only 86% of street maintenance and traffic engineering costs. Federal Revenue Sharing accounts for monies received from Federal Revenue Sharing entitlements. The FY86 Budget proposes using 42% of available revenue sharing for funding the contributions to the human service agencies and for transit operations. The remainder is reserved for capital improvement projects to be designated by the City Council, possibly Civic Center expansion. 12 ENTERPRISE FUNDS The Enterprise Funds include Parking, Pollution Control, Water, Refuse, Landfill, Airport and Transit. These are utilities or services supported primarily from revenues for services provided. A. Enterprise Fund Revenues Rate increases for Refuse and Transit are scheduled to be in effect for FY86. The Refuse Collection currently receives a subsidy from the General Fund; the rate increase scheduled for FY86 will make this fund self-supporting. Refuse collection fees are budgeted in FY86 at $4.30 per month. The current charge is $3.50 per month. Transit operating assistance received from the Federal and State governments has continually been cut since FY83; this means the operating subsidy and bus fares will have to rise. The Transit budget includes a 25% (401 to 50t) fare increase effective July 1, 1985. The operating subsidy will increase 20% (from $354,653 in FY85 to $446,973 in FY86). The FY86 budget includes Federal Section 9 Urban i Mass Transit Administration funding of $123,191 for transit operations. State operating assistance for FY86 is projected at $70,552 as compared with actual State assistance in FY85 of $105,000. Parking rates last increased in October 1984. Parking revenue includes $1,104,050 from the parking ramps and $390,819 from on -street and off-street meters, permit lots and building rentals for a total of $1,494,869 in operating revenue. Parking fines of $111,000 are receipted in the Parking fund to satisfy revenue requirements for Parking Revenue bonds. If the balance at year-end is adequate, those fines will be transferred to the General Fund. Landfill fees will not increase in FY86. They will remain at the current rate of $7.50 per ton throughout FY86. Water and Pollution Control rates are currently being reviewed and will be increased during FY85 as projected in the FY85 Budget. These funds are both self-supporting and rate increases occur in conjunction with increased annual operating costs and/or for capital improvements. Airport operations are funded primarily from the operating subsidy from the General Fund (52% of total revenues) and from building rentals (39% of total revenues). Few alternatives exist for increasing the Airport's own revenues. B. Enterprise Fund Expenditures Parking, Sewer and Water revenues fund operations and also pay the principal and interest due on their respective revenue bond issues. In FY86, $414,514 of Sewer revenue, $72,854 of Water revenue, and $38,000 of Airport revenue will also be used to pay general obligation bond issues which were sold to finance Sewer, Water and Airport projects. 13 Enterprise Fund expenditure comparisons follow: m' •J In September 1984, Parking increased service in the Dubuque Street Ramp from 19-1/2 hours a day to 24 hours a day and now operates both ramps on Sundays. This increased operating costs in FY85. The FY85 estimate is very large compared to the other years also because it includes $220,000 in transfers out for improvements to both parking ramps. The FY86 budget increases because it includes the additional costs for the bonds which will be issued in FY85 to construct two additional floors on the Dubuque Street Ramp. Pollution Control expenditures increased in FY85 as a result of budgeting for cleaning the digesters. FY86 continues maintenance at that level. In Water, FY84 costs were higher than usual due to increased costs for new or replaced water mains. This resulted from the new construction in town and a larger than usual number of main breaks. The City was reimbursed for 68% of the construction costs by contractors of subdivisions. Refuse expenditures reflect only inflationary increases, but no changes in service. Landfill costs vary according to capital outlay and transfers. FY85 includes a transfer of $341,000 to the Capital Projects fund for the Landfill Leachate Control project (FY86-90 CIP). In FY86, there is $305,000 budgeted for contracted excavation at the Landfill site. The Airport pays $10,000 each year for GO Bonds sold in FY83 for T -Hangars. For FY85, a $10,000 transfer was made to Debt Service that should have been made in FY84. FY86 shows an additional $28,000 in the transfer to Debt Service for GO bonds that will be issued for an airport hangar to be constructed in FY85-FY86. Transit added a new tripper service in FY85. Transfers to the Capital Projects fund for the new facility and for bus replacement skews the total expenditures. Without the transfers, FY85 expendi- tures increase 10% over FY84 ($1,914,356/1,737,008) while FY86 rises only 5.7% ($2,023,662/1,914,356) to maintain the tripper service added in FY85 and to upgrade bus maintenance in FY86. Bus maintenance must be upgraded to provide additional staffing and mechanic training due to the operation of the new Transit Maintenance Facility and the complexity of repair of the City's newer buses. 14 FY84 FY85 % FY86 % Actual Estimate Change Budget Change Parking Operations $1,207,214 1,757,001 45.5% $1,663,024 (5.3X) Pollution Control Operations 1,335,767 1,498,422 12.2% 1,535,793 2.5% Water Operations 2,009,303 1,935,110 (3.7X) 1,988,055 2.7% Refuse Collection Operations 523,838 542,108 3.5% 562,779 3.8% Landfill Operations 411,316 795,824 93.4% 698,275 (12.3%) Airport Operations 155,535 173,417 11.5% 191,442 10.4% Transit Operations 1,876,299 2,038,071 8.6% 2,073,662 1.7% In September 1984, Parking increased service in the Dubuque Street Ramp from 19-1/2 hours a day to 24 hours a day and now operates both ramps on Sundays.

Febrhfia9.9Bp885 CITY CLERK (3) 3ST City of Iowa City MEMORANDUM Date: February 21, 1985 To: Mayor McDonald and City Council Members From: Monica Moen, Associate Planner TAW" Re: Appointments to the Historic Preservation Commission At the February 26, 1985, Council meeting, Council members are to appoint two representatives to three year terms to the Iowa City Historic Preservation Commission. These appointments will fill the positions currently held by Chuck Skaugstad and Greg Duffey whose terms expire on March 29, 1985. Although Section 27-81 of the Iowa City Code of Ordinances states that "...at ar least one resident of each designated ea of historical significance shall be appointed to the Commission...", presently, there are no representatives from the Woodlawn and Summit Street Historic Districts on the Commission. The expiration of the two terms at the end of March provides the opportunity to appoint a representative from each of these two districts. In an effort to have the Woodlawn and Summit Street Districts represented on the Historic Preservation Commission, letters were sent to every address in these districts, informing residents of the impending vacancies on the Commission and encouraging them to submit applications for these positions. Please review the applications for these positions which have been received to date, keeping in mind the obligation to select a representative from each designated area of historical significance. I will attend the February 25, 1985, informal Council meeting to advise you as to which applicants reside in the City's two local historic districts. Attached you will find maps delineating these districts. In the meanwhile, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 356-5247. cc: Don Schmeiser Jim Hencin Dick Boyle bj4/2 Woodlawn Avenue Historic District U JEFFERSON, ST.
