KARR, CITY CLERK / WILLIAM J. BR U, MAYOR MARIAN K. KARR, CITY CLERK Informal Council Discussion April 20, 1987 Informal Council Discussion: April 20, 1987, at 7:00 p,m, in the Council Chambers in the Civic Center, Mayor Bill Ambrisco presiding. Council Present: Strait, Zuber, Ambrisco, Dickson, Courtney, McDonald, Baker (7:45). Staff Present: Atkins, Helling, Timmins, Karr, Smith, Franklin, Moen, Milk- man, 0 Ma ey, Vitosh, Boothroy, Rockwell, Trueblood, Schmadeke, Brinton, Cain, Nugent, Davidson. Ta P2 Recorded: Reel 87-C17, Side 2, 160 -End; Reel 87-19, Side 1, I -End, Side 2, 1- n . eel 87-20, Side 1, 1-23. Consent Calendar Reel 87-C11, Side 2 City Council agreed to add to the consent calendar a Class C liquor license and Sunday Sales for Magnifico's, Mostly Italian. Planning and Zoning Matters A. lic h Reel 87-C17, Side 2 on an ordinance to amend Franklin explained the proposed ordinance applies to vehicles which are either more than 7-1/2 feet in height or more than 17-1/2 feet in length; the amendment places a time limit, 48 hours, on which special vehicles may be parked within a front yard and also eliminates non -conforming provision one year from adoption. Boothroy said there has been problems with enforcing the present ordinance as it is written because of the non -conforming issue; the intent of the regulations established in 1983 was not to allow large, special vehicles in front or side yards; and enforcement is done on a complaint basis. In response to Zuber, Moen explained the 17-1/2 foot length was arrived at by determining the amount of space a special vehicle would require to fit within a 19 foot parking space and to not encroach upon a public sidewalk and the 7-1/2 foot height was determined after contacts were made to several vehicle dealers and it was intended not to prohibit passenger vans that would be used on a daily basis. Moen stated the proposed ordinance would permit the enforcement staff, within 48 hours of a complaint, to regulate special vehicles. Boothroy labeled the present ordinance non -enforceable. Zuber said ordinances regulating RVs or other special vehicles are not needed. McDonald explained the original ordinance adopted in 1983 was due to the numerous complaints received from citizens regarding RVs parked in drive- ways, Courtney said the whole ordinance should be reviewed again. In response to Ambrisco, Boothroy explained that when a complaint is re- ceived, enforcement staff verifies the vehicle's location, staff returns in two days and if the vehicle is still present, a letter is sent to the vehicle owner indicating they are in violation of the Zoning Ordinance. Ambrisco stated a public hearing will be set May 5, 1987. _1 _1 B. Public hearing on an amendment to the research development park (ROP) zone. Franklin stated Council received a summary of this ordinance; the amend- ment would redefine' the ROP zone to require that at least 60% be in office and research use and 40% be in manufacturing or assembly use; and it was decided that a one acre lot would be more appropriate. Franklin said that one acre lots would not require an LSNRD and to get a review before the zoning takes place, a concept plan and covenants that would cover the park would have to be submitted. Franklin said the public hearing is just on the ordinance revision, but there has been a request by Southgate Development to have this ordinance applied to Northgate Development Park. Franklin stated the Planning and Zoning Commission has indicated a desire for Council to consider the ordinance amendment and Southgate's request in tandem. Franklin suggested Council proceed with the public hearing and readings as planned. In response to Zuber, Franklin said the reference to Clear Creek was made with regards to statements made by outside experts in the University's Charette Seminar indicating that a city the size of Iowa City cannot anticipate getting national headquarters; Iowa City should look at smaller developments; and a one acre lot size might be more appropriate than the two acres in the zone. Franklin said staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission feel the ordinance amendments would be advantageous for Iowa City regardless of who uses it. Dickson asked why there would be a limitation on public review. Franklin explained public review would occur when the park is being designed; a concept plan and covenants would be required and then, when the developer wants to sell individual lots within the park, build- ing permits for the individual lots would be reviewed administratively. C. Public hearing on an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to define fitness cenTers�health spas. Franklin said fitness centers and health spas are included as special exceptions in the amended RDP zone and the proposed definition distin- guishes fitness centers from other commercial recreational uses. D. Public hearing on an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to amend the flood hazard overlay zone. Franklin said the Federal Emergency Management Agency has adopted new rules that relate to manufactured housing in the floodplain and Iowa City is required to amend the local floodplain ordinance to comply with the rules in order to continue to participate in the Federal Insurance Pro- gram. Franklin said it is proposed that the model ordinance provided by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources be adopted locally. Franklin explained changes made from the model ordinance are: 1) the appeal of regulations would go to the Board of Adjustment, and 2) to require certi- fication for floodplain development by an engineer. Franklin noted that small stream bank erosion control projects less than 500 feet and that do not extend three feet into the floodway are exempted from the certifica- tion requirement and the City Engineer can waive certification if a person is competent to handle an evaluation.

Public hearinq on ion Moen explained the proposed ordinance amendments affect the location of fences and hedges within vision triangles. Also included is a provision that would allow an individual to specifically request a special excep- tion to modify height or location of the particular fence. Moen said the Planning and Zoning Commission, at their March 19, 1987 meeting, recom- mended approval of the proposed amendments. Moen said staff proposed a third provision which would require that permits be obtained for the construction of all fences. Presently, only fences that exceed the height of six feet or all electric or barbed wire fences are obligated to obtain a permit prior to their construction. Moen stated the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended against this particular provision. Boothroy explained a permit process allows for more uniform enforcement. Moen said Council needs to decide if the provision requiring that permits be obtained for construction of all fences should be included in the ordinance amendment. Courtney asked if Council would be required to meet with the Planning and Zoning Commission if Council decided to include the permit provision. Timmins stated he would need to review the policv. Moen explained a parking area is defined as any area that allows space for four vehicles; the proposed ordinance addresses only existing parking areas that have a hard surface and the purpose of the proposed ordinance is to allow existing parking areas with hard surfaces to be located within five feet of a residential zone provided a solid fence is placed on the property line or within the commercial or industrial area.

In response to Ambrisco, Davidson said the Heinz Road segment of the project was included in the original RISE application. Courtney noted the proposed subordinate lien puts the City on a second lien position to the current debt that is held by local banks. John Krieger said there is a $420,000 bank debt with three banks in Iowa City and the remaining $200,000 special assessments of the property. Krieger said the BDI board is pricing land at $15,000-520,000 per acre. Tom Hoogerwerf said land needs to be sold to pay the debt back and it should be done before 1990. In response to Baker, Cain said the interest rate paid back by BDI will be determined from the bond sale. Baker inquired about the loss of opportunity costs of fund and administrative expenses. Cain said the opportunity costs that would be lost would be those costs for any money that the City would spend above the $66,000 prior to the sale of the bonds and the opportunity cost on the bonds and interest is figured into the repayment schedule. Cain said potentially the City could recover the opportunity costs for those funds that the City would expend prior to the sale of bonds if lot sales occur sooner than projected. In response to Courtney, Vitosh said GO bonds can be used for the project. Vitosh said Ken Haynie, the City's bond attorney, has reviewed the proposal. Vitosh explained the proposed debt can be issued by Iowa City will be less than 10% of the total bond issue because the new tax laws state that if more than 10% of a bond issue chiefly benefits private property, it could jeopardize the tax exempt status of the entire bond issue. In response to McDonald, Vitosh said the City is fronting the cost and it has been done Atkins said bthere is noefore in eg aranteecial sthattthe projects. would allownIowaoCityeto remove the construction of Heinz Road from the RISE project. Baker asked if BDI has approached the private sector to secure financing necessary for the construction of Heinz Road. Krieger replied the banks were asked, and did not approve the request. Courtney asked if there was any consideration given to the City for a higher lien holding. John Krieger said the banks gave up quite a bit so that Iowa City would receive 15% of the next sale price of the BDI lots. Krieger said in the years when there have not been any sales of lots, the banks have capitalized the interest and paid the special assess- ments through bank loans, and banks will have to continue to pay special assessments through additional bank debt until land is sold. Krieger said in the new bankodebtsal tbuthe bareshave unwillingeed to to funddthece an entireCou through additional $0001memberrs agreed to the proposed agreement with BDI for the construction of Heinz Road as outlined. Atkins said City staff will prepare formal resolutions for the agreement.
