On June 4, 1985, this Council rezoned the Neuzil tract from RM -12 to RS -8, but did not formally state its reasons for such rezoning.

Consider recommendations of the Riverfront Commission: (1) That Council seriously consider the concept of site development plans and land disturbing activities regu- lation as promulgated by the Urban Environment Ad Hoc Committee. Aeli),�I$% Comment: The proposed regulations have been referred to the Planning and Zoning Commission for review. �Q (2) That the City place warning signs on the Iowa Avenue bridge about the dangers posed by swift currents and the Burlington Street Dam. The Riverfront Commission requests that special attention be given to the aes- thetic quality of the signs and their placement. Comment: This recommendation has been referred to the Department of Public Works for review. b. Consider recommendations of the Broadband Telecommunications Commission: (1) That $335 be allocated from the FY86 budget to assist in co -sponsoring the Access Iowa CitylNational Federa- tion of Local Cable Programmers regional conference to be held next spring in Iowa City. Comment: Funding for this allocation will come from the franchise fee revenue. AGENDA REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 17, 1985 'i PAGE 13 (2) The BTC strongly recommends that Council take action on 1 the matter of the 5% franchise fee/NPO. This matter is in the Legal Department. c. Consider recommendations of the Committee on Community Needs: (1) CCN recommends that a portion of the 1986 CDBG funding contingency be used for unfunded projects and that the ! City Council authorize the CCN to consider and make recommendations on the unfunded projects as well as new f projects at its January meeting. i Comnent: On October 18, 1985, the CCN forwarded its S recommendations for 1986 CDBG funded projects to the City Council which included a contingency fund of ( $36,600. The City Council reviewed the CCN recommenda- tions and adopted the final CDBG budget on November 19, 1985. However, the City Council eliminated one of the t CCN recommended projects and increased the contingency 1 fund to $110,240. The CCN would like Council's au- thorization to review the unfunded project requests as well as new projects at its January, 1985 meeting and i make recommendations to forward to the City Council. A complete discussion of this recommendation is contained in the November 19, 1985, CCN meeting minutes. The City Council may wish to defer action on this recommen- dation until. the 1986 grant is awarded by HUD and the final grant amount is known. {� (2) CCN recommends that the City Council explore further r the revolving loan fund concept and that CCN is willing j f to assist the City Council. Comment: This fall, the CCN received a request for $300,000 in CDBG funds for the purpose of developing I and administering an economic development revolving loan fund. The purpose of the fund would be to in- crease employment opportunities within Iowa City, especially for low and moderate income residents, and to expand the tax base. Although the CCN expressed support for the concept, they felt that the proposal lacked specificity, for example targeting methods and performance standards for job creation. At its Novem- ber 19, 1985, meeting, the CCN expressed an interest in pursuing the development of the revolving loan fund i concept for a possible request for the 1987 CDBG pro- gram year. A detailed discussion of this recommenda- tion is contained in the November 19, 1985, CCN minutes. If the City Council is interested in this concept, the staff will develop alternatives for an economic development revolving loan fund. ■ ,. ■ M AGENDA REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 17, 1985 PAGE 14 S5- 3 59 ITEM NO. 14 - CONSIDER A RESOLUTION CERTIFYING UNPAID WATER, SEWER AND REFUSE CHARGES TO COUNTY AUDITOR FOR COLLECTION IN THE SAME MANNER AS A PROPERTY TAX.

(second consideration) Comment: Although cities in Iowa have power to enact provi- sions stricter than state law, the City Charter requirement that Council candidate nomination petitions be signed by registered voters, rather than those who are merely eligible to vote (i.e., persons residing in Iowa City who are least 18 years old) does not conform to State law. This amendment is intended to make the Charter conform to State law require- ments.
