It further states that the Plan is it flexible base outlining public desires and concerns which can be integrated with i private development through maximum public/private imagination and3 ,1 cooperation.' On page 36 of Phase II, the study recommends' that "To protect the t sensitive nature of the River Corridor, and thus the public and private investment Ili development, it is recommended that a special River, { 1 Corridor Management Ordinance be enacted."

Unregulated development threatens the 'public 'interest with irreversible damage to the River Corridor.

After considerable discussion as to timing and appropriateness of the motion, Gilpin moved and Fahr seconded the tabling of the motion. Motion carried 5-1 4 (Lindberg opposed). Lindberg then moved and Fahr seconded the motion that i "'file Commission was pleased to note that at your August 7,'1978 informal - mecting`,you'expressed support of the Riverfront Commission's recommendation to establish a River Corridor Overlay Zone.

Chairman Kohl indicated that by reading the ,copy of the 'letter that was in his appeal packet he i was uncertain as to exactly, what Mr. Glasgow was appealing. Staff member Bowlin asked for the floor to present to the Board some evidence that the window situation in the Davis Building was in fact a hazardous situation. Mr. Bowlin presented to the Board Mr. Dennis Kraft and asked Mr. Kraft several questions pertaining to the situation of the windows in the Davis Building. I I Mr. Kraft,', speaking as a tenant of the Davis Building, gave several comments and remarked that he had in fact seen an entire window blow out of the Davis Building and nearly strike a pedestrian walking on the City right of way on the exterior of the building. Mr. Kraft also 'indicated that windows had blown out on several occasions, mostly during storms,' and whenever a wind situation arises in his own office he frequently moves' away from the window in fear that the glass may blow in and injure himself. Mr. Kraft offered several pieces ofevidence to indicate that "the windows j in the Davis Building were in his opinion a hazardous condition. Mr. Bowlin then asked staff member Siders some questions relating to the results of the inspection e n Mr< Siders made on b d' P the ull ding. i 9 Siders commented by saying that several panes of glass were loose at the time of the inspection and in his opinion were in immediate need of repair. Siders also indicated that because some areas of the building are unoccupied { f and locked off, an inspection of'all windows was, not able to be made how- ever, the majority of :the windows that were inspected in the building were found to be in a bad condition. Staff member Bowlin then presented to the Board two exhibits "which are denoted as A and B. Exhibit A shows the staff report to the Board of Appeals, shows a copy of a,letter dated June 27th.to Washington Park Inc, citing the ` violation, also shows a letter dated August 3,''1978 which is a request for am appeal'by"Mr. Glasgow. It shows a copy of a letter dated August 18, 1978 to Mr. Glasgow indicating the time and date of,the appeal hearing and also includes a tentative agenda. Exhibit 8 is a copy of Ordinance 77-2860 which i is an ordinance adopting, the 1976 edition of the Uniform Code for the Abate- ment of Dangerous Buildings. S Chairman Kohl asked if there were any other individuals who wished to speak on the Board. Mr. Glasgow, not being present and having no one there to represent him, Chairman Kohl then asked for `comments "from the Board members. s Board member Miller indicated, that there was no doubt in his mind that the windows were in a dangerous condition and should be corrected. Chairman Kohl 'asked if there was any further discussion 'on this appeal. There being 'none Chairman Kohl asked for a motion. It was moved byFranklin, seconded by Miller that because Mr. Glasgow did not show, or have any repre- sentation at the appeals meeting, it would be the determination that Mr. Glasgow has chosen to waive his right to an appeal. The motion carried unanimously.' 5 NICROFIL14ED BY JORM MICR6LAE3 CEDAR RAPIDS • DCS MOINES.. 111CROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB' CEDAR RAPIDS AND UES MOINES, IOWA I RESOLUTION NO. 78-438 RESOLUTION OF APPROVAL OF CLASS "C" BEER PERMIT APPLICATION BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF IOWA CITY, IOWA, that a Class "C" Beer Permit,Application -is hereby approved for the following named person or persons at the following 'described locations: Dale E.

I am sending this for the information of your Honorable Body, and also for the information of the, Council of Elders, which group now has offices in the Civic Center. I was glad to receive Mn Berlin's letter of May 18. It is a good letter because, in a way; it gives notice that the City, may not be inclined to stand for any "monkey business" in connection with any of the programs that may be conducted in:the Senior Citizens Center when and if it is completed. However, the last two sentences of the last paragrap of this letter need to be clarified.` These read, "However, in acoord with the attached correspondence (Mr. Berlin had included with his letter,'copiea of the two 1 'To Whom it May Concern'+letters which I had already received) it appears clear that your questions concerning congregate meals; eligibility have been revised. Ttie'oonclusione are that the program complies with the applicable i Federal and State regulations." -You note from the inclosed Page 4 that nothing has changed since z, ,f �. will the first three pages were written last April. No statement of eligibility is being required of would-be participants in the meals program as is. reouired of would-be participants in all of, the other public welfare pro- grams.

I received throe communications. One was a letter, dated May 18, written by City Manager Neil Berlin for the City Council, from which I quote: Nit is not the intention of the City of Iowa City to be the ' operator sof the congregate meals program and the City will not beeome one by reason of allowing the program to continue in the senior citizens center. The City, by owning the building, does not become an insurer that every program conducted therein is in compliance with all federal or state rules, regulations and laws. Should !he City become aware: of any irregularities in this program, or with any, other program conducted therein, it would certainlyinform the proper authorities. A letter, dated May 8, addressed"To Whom it May Concern was signed by Patricia E. Greiner, Nutrition Project Director, Heritage Agency on Aging. I quote from that letter as follows: "Ap the representative of Heritage Agency on Aging, charged with monitoring the Title VII meals program and insuring compliance with state and federal regulations, I have found no violation in the current method of Operation." But Ms. Greiner didn't say where"'she looked. She 'didn't say that she had looked at all. If you don't look, you don't find. I dialed 338-9294 ( the - meals reservation number) and was calmly told, in reply to my question, that all persons age 60 and over are eligible. On May 26, at the County Fair for Older Americans) which had been put on in our Public Library Auditorium by the American Association of Retired Persons, 'j the Heritage Agency had brought.:a stack of folders which they made. available �... for pick-up by those in attendance. This folder, along with information about other' programs, gives a list of the Congregate Meal Sites in the seven -county Heritage Agency'area, and on another page it says, * * * anyone over, 60 and j his or her spouse, regardless of age, are welcome to dine at the sites." " The other letter, dated April 19, also addressed "To Whom it MayConcern" was signed by Robert E. Welsh who, I am told, is Chairman of the Advisory Committee to the sub -contractor of congregate meals; viz: the Johnson County Board of Supervisors. This Advisory. Committee,''according to the Press -Citizen,'' is composed of'three Protestant clerygmen, one Catholic priest; two members of the American Association of Retired Personst one from the J.C. Council on Aging. The outstanding"sentencin'Rev. Welsh's letter is "We are not nor have we I ! operated in a manner in violation, of federal law.

But it isn't' different. Food - m m c stamps; rent subsidy, etc. are welfare programs that have been set up by ;J c�?•t the government to help people who have special needs, and are paid for from u 0 tax funds.'

Plastino RE: Philosophy of Traffic Engineering (7th and Glendale) Public Works is sometimes viewed as stubborn and inflexible concerning traffic engineering matters. This view of Public Works is partially correct., we in'Public Works believe our role is to provide the City Manager and the City Council with the best possible advice concerning traffic, engineeringmatters. In order to acquaint you with our, thinking process, 1 : we, thought it might be helpful to list some of the facts that guide us when giving you advice. 'There are three groups of facts that we look at in evaluating traffic engineering matters. These are: 1. legal requirements, 2. basic effectiveness requirements and 3. design requirements. 1 LEGAL REQUIREhtENIS � I I State Law has several sections which guide Public Works in giving advice and recommendations. Some of the more important sections are as follows: Section 321.236 Powers of Local Authorities. "Local authorities shall have no power to enact, enforce, or maintain any ordinance, rule or regulation in any way in conflict with, contrary to or inconsistent; with the provisions of this: chapter, and no such ordinance, rule, or. regulation ofsaidlocal authorities heretofore or heretoafter enacted shall have any force or effect,.." I i i L, Section 321.255 Local Traffic Control Devices. "Local authorities in their respective jurisdictions shall place and maintain such traffic control devices upon highways under their jurisdiction as they may deem necessary to indicate and carry out the provisions of this chapter or local ,traffic ordinances, or to regulate, warrant or guide traffic.- All such traffic control devices hereafter erected shall conform to the State manual and specifications." e tate manu specifications is the ua i ozm ra rc Devices) LTraffic control devices are defined as "all signs, signals, ' SoZ / 2 „ 141CROFILMED BY ' JORM MICRd)LA9, - CEDAR RAPIDS • DCS MOIRES b1ICROFIL14ED BY JORM LIICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS A14D-DES MOVIES, IOWA page f,2Glendal November 24, 1976 markings, and deviceson oradjacent laced , to a street or high- way way by, authority of a public body or official having' jurisdiction to regulate, warn, or guide traffic." Section 364.12 (2) 4 A Cityis responsible for the care, supervision and control of public s grounds, streets,',sidewalks, alleys, bridges, culverts, overpasses, underpasses,grade crossings and separations and approaches, except those lawfully required to be maintained by railway company and t the City shall keep all public ways, squares and romwns open, in s i[ repair, and free from nuisance..." J Section 657.2(5) } ff 'What deem nuisance&. The obstructing or incuobering by fences, F building or buildings or otherwise the public roads, private ways, p streets, alleys, conations, " UncrIVefm REQUIREbI ws s The Manual on Uniform o Trafficont e C rol Devices states tha t traffic control - devices'should meet five (S) basic requirements. They are: i { I. fulfill a need, 4 1.' command attention, .3.: convey a clear, simple meaning,' + 4. command respect of road users and { 5.; give adequate time for proper response. i DESIGN REWIRDEWS i Five basic design requirements must be used to insure that signs are j effective. These are: # 1. design, 2. placement, 3.' operation, # 4. maintenance, and t S. uniformity. Uniformity is important to this discussion and it will be defined further.' Uniformity,of traffic control devices simplifies the task j of the road user because it aids in recognition and understanding. It ! aids road users, police officers and traffic courts,by giving everyone the same interpretation. Simply stated, uniformity' means treating. similar' situations in the same way. The use of a uniform traffic control device does not in itself constitute uniformity. 'Alstandard device used where it is not rappropriate is aslobjectionable as a non-standard.device; in fact, this may'Eworse in that such misuse may result in disrespect at those locations where the device is heeded, Y 141CROEILMED BY ` JORM .MICR+LAB 'CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOVIES MICROFILMED BY DORM 111CROLAD CEDAR RAPIDS AND ULS NUINL;, IUed' .- GENERAL DISCUSSION The ideas expressed above are not abstract in nature. The general public is aware of its.rights'under the law and there are many attorneys' willing to sue the City to "safeguard" these rights. For example, the City is presently being sued because a.person riding a bicycle slipped on a bikeway that became mud -covered after a heavy rainstorm. In another case, the City was sued because a person on a bicycle hit a dip ,in'a sidewalk and fell. In another case, the City was sued because a person rode into a sidewalk vault door that was in a raised position._ In yet another case, claims were filed against the City be cause a piece of metal was picked up by a wheel and hurled against a gas tank resulting in the gas tank leaking: 4 i ]hese lawsuits, 'even though all will not be lost by the City, represent a potential outlay of thousands and even hundreds of thousands of dollars. When Public Works seems reluctant to, give the Council advice that appears to be in conflict with legal considerations, you may be assured that we are reluctant. Public officials, ,whether ,they be elected or appointed are becoming increasingly cautious about legal + exposure. -In our opinion, legal exposure is 'increased whenever the City deviates from a path of strict compliance with the State Code and the Manual on { Uniform Traffic Control Devices, particularly when installations have no proven beneficial purpose. i § I SPECIFIC CASE OF 7TH AND GLENDALE - I' The City Council has received a request to install two (Z) more stop signs at ,7th and Glendale and to install rumble strips in advance of !!! these stop signs and at the intersection. + - On October 25th, a meeting was held with Lowell Cross and R.L. Dryer, two residents in the area of 7th and Glendale. In this meeting, the 1 following problems were identified, by Mr. Cross and Mr. Dryer: i 1. Not enough policemen for enforcement, 2. Speeding can, 3. Spinningtires, g going p curb and � 4. Reckless'drivin ;that is, cars oro u over the over the grass; 5. High traffic volumes, 6., High truck volumes, 7. Danger to children, walking along the street. These two residents desire the installation of a four waystop sign and rumble strips of appropriate design at the intersection of Glendale and 7th Avenue apparently to, correct sane of the perceived conditions listed above. They consider these advisable for the following reasons: I mcmrILMiD BY ` JORM MICR+LAE3 CEDAR nAPi'1<. - PU MINES j I.IICROFILMED BY JORM 141CROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND ULS 1•10114Li,'ItJr;A page 4. 7th and Glendale November 24, 1976' Ft. Theseexpedients are probably less expensive than alternate devices, b. They have intrinsic merit of their own in traffic control judged by their use elsewhere, c. If proven ineffective (by what means?) they can be more readily removed than other devices. d. Their installation will advertise a measure of concern on the part of City officials for a problem of serious magnitude. This concern is not currently advertised to motorists in the area. This advertisement, by itself, may abate the problem. In evaluating this proposal, Public Works ca,ipared the suf;grstnl remvdy against the legal considerations, effectiveness requiren[:nts wit) design ' requirements listed at the beginning of this paper. The use of speed control bumps, runble strips, etc. is not an approved traffic control device as listed in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. A legal interpretation of the Iowa State Code could lead to the conclusion that if a particular device is not one that is promulgated by the Manual on Uniform Traffic Devices then actually, it exposes the City to i liability if it has no demonstrable benefit.' It is possible that installation i of devices not in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices constitutes a violation of Section 321.255 of the Iowa State Code and may also be defined as a nuisance, as defined in 657.2(5) of the Iowa State Code. f iLegal considerations aside, the question becomes one of effectiveness and design considerations. Mr. Dryer and Mr. Cross wish to have nmble, strips because they feel the rumble strip at the stop sign will cause j wheel hop when somebody squeals,their tires leaving the stop sign and apparently they wish to have a rumble strip 250 feet in rldv.mce of the stop sign to warn people about the rumble strip at the stop sign. Public Works feels that such devices as this fail several of the effective- ness tests listed on page, 2. We do not believe the devices fulfill'a need, convey a clear simple meaning, or command the respect of road users. There is no available evidence rLmble strips either decrease speed in an urban situation, or stop cars from squealing tires. Purthcrmore, it would not appear to be a valid function of a City to set up test installations using Iowa Citians as test subjects. In regard to using stop signs as speed control devices on 7th Avenue, the available literature reveals'that stop signs do not work as speed control devices. Within a very short distance after leaving a stop sign, vehicles are up at a speed that is considered, logical by the motorist. We also o know that the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices makes ' a very simple statement about stop signs. It reads as follows: "Stop signs should not be used for speed control" The suggestions for 7th and Glendale also fail several design considera- tions. that the Cit cut deep ! rooves in the tions. it: is suggested y P B 8B pavement. These grooves will be of very questionable useful - 1 al Hess and they will place the City in a prevariols leg position. During the winter, snow will freeze and thaw in these grooves, creating 141CROCILMED BY JORM MICR1LAB C[DAR RAPIDS 11S MOINES t•11CROFILMEU BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND ULS MUINL;, o �y 7th and Glend_' November M 6 hazardous traction situations. It is suggested that stop, signs also be installed at this location,', whichwill further compound the problem. When and if lawsuits are filedinconjunction with an- accident at-this location, the City and its elected and appointed officials, will be the people who are held responsible for this illegal, ineffective, and illogical design. The City is often placed in a difficult position because we, truthfully have no quick remedies to solve vehicular speeding, spinning tires,', high traffic volumes and reckless driving. We do know that increased }police enforcement has some effect and we do know that an'education s program through the media can be somewhat effective. We believe ,that it is preferable to' tell concerned.citizeris what we can and cannot do, rather than to entertain and encourage the discussion and sometimes z even the installation' of illegal, ineffective and illogical traffic i control devices. Throughout the United States, there is a prevalent attitude that if we .spend enough money'or generate enough ideas about a problem, it will disappear. ` This isnot the case with'ivehicular traffic. The automobile has brought our society many benefits, but with the benefits j we have inherited many, many problems, such as parking, speeding, air pollution, etc. Public Works believes that within the constraints of legality, effectivettss and logic,the City cannot provide solutions II to every conceiveable traffic problem. i I think that most individuals who work for the City, and certainly " all of the elected officials, genuinely like to help people solve 1 problems. Unfortunately, there are times uben we must recognize our limitations and say "no!'. We twist always explain our reasons for saying no, making it .clear that in the end, decisions must be based on legality, effectiveness and logic. { C 1 i i j i . i z i MICRDCILMED BY •„•., JORM MICR(6LAB.

WASHINGTON 5T IOWA CHY IOWA 52240 (319) 3511 18((_) September 28, 1978 I Raymond 'Kassel, .Director (,Iowa Dept. of Transportation 800 Lincolnway Ames, Iowa 50010 4 Dear Mr. Kassel: For several years the Iowa Department of Transportation has been working I with Iowa City and other governmental jurisdictions as a prelude to the ffl construction of Arterial Route .518. This highway is an integral part of { the state-wide arterial system.' iIn the Iowa City area, the freeway serves the dual function of carrying through traffic and traffic bound to and from Iowa City. After a' long period of discussion, the many areas of controversy between t I Iowa City and the Iowa Department of Transportation have been resolved with the exception of three issues. These are: 1. The issue of a four -lane versus two-lane cross-section. 2. The construction of an interchange at Melrose Avenue. j3. The original 'alignment versus aproposed westerly realignment.' � I k Two -Lane Versus Four -Lane Cross -Section The City Council of Iowa City has'stron Y maintained that atwo-lane facility would be adequate to, handle the traffic volumes anticipated o on that portion of Arterial 518 passing through and by Iowa City.' Iowa City felt that a two-lane facility ,would provide adequate traffic service while minimizing' adverse environmental' effects and reducing I the amount of farm land consumed by the facility.', At the public information meeting held September 14 in Iowa City by the Department of Transportation, several reasons were given in support of the four - lane freeway. Foremost among the arguments was the matter of route continuity and the dangerous safety aspects of transitioning from a four -lane to a two-lane facility and 'then back to'a four -lane facility. At this time the City Council is persuaded that al four -lane facility ; is acceptable and the City of Iowa City now concurs with the Iowa Department of Transportation position on this matter.

In the past, cities usually demanded'a large number of interchanges spaced at close intervals. In the case of Arterial 518, the City of Iowa City and the Iowa Department of Transportation have switched roles.- The Department of Transportation staff is recommending a r Melrose interchange while the City of Iowa City and the _City of University Heights are strongly resisting the construction of an ,interchange at Melrose Avenue. For the last several months, the discussion has been @ concerned with how many cars would be added to Melrose Avenue because of an interchange between 518 and Melrose. Proponents on both sides of this issue havei presented figures es and computer studies which support both sides of the argument. An .example is demonstrated below with figures from the Iowa City Area Transportation Study: ANTICIPATED TRAFFIC IN 1995 ON MELROSE AVENUE NEAR FREEWAY 518 WITH AN INTERCHANGE WITH AN INTERCHANGE NGE (Free Assignment (Capacity Restrained WITHOUT AN INTERCHANGEComputer Model) Computer Model) ) 1,428 vehicles per day 2,534 vehicles per day 7,197 vehicles per day i ` At each public hearing and public information meeting, long debates have i ensued concerning the weaknesses of computer modeling, the assumption of future land uses, the trip generation factors, ,etc., etc. 'Throughout these long discussions only one,fact has remained absolute: 1 1 The decision to construct or not construct a Melrose Avenue inter- change impacts only upon the local street system and has little ! effect upon the level of service or operation of Arterial 518. 1 An unwanted land use problem will also likely arise from the lilocation of an t interchange at Melrose Avenue, i.e., significant pressure forcommercialI development around the interchange inconsistent with the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan. If this occurs it will generate additional traffic in the western part of Iowa City even if the development is in Coralville or in the unincorporated part of Johnson County. In the recent past property owners in this area have expressed "the desire to develop their land and have mentioned de -annexation from Iowa City as a possible means of achiev- Ing their objective. Regardless of whether a Melrose Avenue interchange adds a large number or a small number of vehicles to Melrose, the impact is upon only the,local street system.- Therefore, it is our contention that the decision to con- struct, or not construct the interchange, should primarily rest with local officials provided the decision is consistent with 'other valid State con- cerns. I 141CROFIL14ED BY JORM MIC RdtLAB ' [SOAR RAPIM - IFS MOUS 141CROFILI4ED BY JORM 141CROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND DES MOINES, loviii y -3 At this particular time, the City of Iowa City is strongly opposed to the construction of an interchange at Melrose Avenue. At the State level, the implications of building or not building this interchange seem minimali At the local level, the implications are enormous. Residentsthroughout the Melrose Avenue' corridor are very concerned about this aspect of the 518 project and are opposed to construction of the interchange'. For the last two and one-half years, the government of Iowa City has worked in close partnership with its citizens to develop a comprehensive plan with a viable and acceptable pattern of land, uses and traffic circulation. An integral part of this process was the assumption that citizens should have control over the destiny of their environment. With this in mind,: we believe objectives of both the State and the City would be best served by deleting the construction of the Melrose Avenue'' interchange at this time. Even with the construction of an interchange at Melrose Avenue, the traffic carrying capacity of this facility would be limited because of the two-lane cross i section of Melrose running, through the City of University Heights. It should also be realized that University Heights has both consistently and vehemently opposed the widening of Melrose Avenue, and that it is unlikely that ,this position will change in the future. m i Arterial 518 Alignment i I The City of Iowa City is very_ interested in having the Iowa Department of Transportation Commission' seriously consider the realignment of proposed' Arterial 518 to a more, westerly location. The; realignment; along a I corridor as depicted on the City's recently adopted Comprehensive Plan E would be extremely advantageous to ;the future growth of Iowa City; and a` conversely, the proposed IDOT alignment creates several problems for the i community, including running through or in very close proximity to both a l proposed elementary school -park site and a proposed junior, high school -park site. Conceivably, the Iowa' Department of Transportation arrived at the proposed j realignment based partially upon information supplied by the Johnson County RI RegionalPlanningCommission. This information is no longer valid, and, in fact, represents an alignment which was depicted by the Commission because they assumed the alignment was not subject to change, even though they did not prefer the alignment. Therefore, in an attempt to provide added in- sight to this question, a brief recapitulation of the factors which led to the IDOT alignment and selection will be discussed.' Subsequently, the l rationale for, and the advantages of the City's proposed alignment will j also be explained. The Johnson County Regional Planning Commission's Preliminary Land Use Plan for the metropolitan portion of Johnson County was prepared as a part of the Johnson County Area Transportation Study. As explained on page 57 of the final Environmental Impact Statement for Arterial 518 prepared by the Iowa Department of Transportation, the 518 bypass was incorporated into the JCRPC's Preliminary Land Use Plan as 'a proposal for structuring urban area development:' This statement indicated that the, location of proposed Arter- ial'518 west and south of the Iowa City urban area would be consistent with the urban growth patterns. ' If events had'remained static; the proposed IdICRoriwcD By JORM MICRWLAB CEDAR RAPIDS • PCS MOINFS I i I•IILROFIL14ED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIUS AND UES MUINLS, lU'+iA _4_ alignment might now be rational. However, the recently completed com- prehensive planning effort carried on by the City of Iowa City differs significantly from the earlier Johnson County Regional Planning Commis- sion's Preliminary Land Use Plan in this area. It is the City of Iowa City's contention that the Comprehensive Plan which was adopted by the City Council in May of this year, is the document which should be used to guide the development of the entire community. The westerly realignment, as shown in the City's Comprehensive Plan, will present several distinct advantages to the City of an environmental, oper- ational and financial nature. One of the basic, goals of the adopted City.Comprehensive Plan (page'19) is that watersheds are one of the natural boundaries to guide development. The Comprehensive Plan indicates that ridge lines between watersheds should be used to define the limits of urban development. The location of 518 as shown on the City's Comprehensive Plan does in fact do that; this alignment is along the westerly ;edge of the Willow Creek watershed. One of the major concepts of the City's Comprehensive Plan',(page 53) is to 4 encourage compact development within portions of the City's watersheds. These areas can be most efficiently and economically served, by the City's proposedsewage treatment plant. The dramatic economic impact of providing an effective level of sewage treatment to meet State and Federal standards, and the validity of the,"watershed orientation" concept as contained in the City's Comprehensive Plan have been underscored by the recent cost figures presented to the City Council for the proposed sewage treatment plant.' The City's consultant has estimated that the new sewage treatment facility, and related improvements, will cost approximately $40,000,000. With this investment it is certainly in the City's best financial interest to restrict ' development to those watersheds which will be able to be economically served by the new sewage treatment facility. As local 'governments 'are continually strapped in 'attempting to generate adequate amounts of revenue to provide needed municipal services, and as taxpayers indicate their displeasure with the rising costs of providing these services, the basic tenets of efficiency and economy must be the guidelines for future develop- ment. The westerly alignment of 518 as shown 'on:the City's Comprehensive Plan does just that. ' The trafficways'section of the Comprehensive Plan (page 64) states that the westerly bypass (Arterial 518) is located some distance to the west of the 20 -year growth line in order to preserve the development potential of the Willow Creek watershed. While it is not anticipated that the westerly part r of Iowa City will develop to ,the City's proposed alignment within the next n 20 years, the alignment nevertheless does preserve the potential for the City to expand out to the edge of the watershed some time in the future. Based upon the previous demographic trends of the community, and based upon the likely future of arterial routes such as 518, it is very reasonable to assume ,that within the foreseeable future, urban development in Iowa City will expand westward to the proposed Arterial 518 alignment. As it relates to existing development in Iowa City, the westerly alignment will result in less noise and less air pollution for those existing urban- ized parts of western Iowa City by allowing a buffer of undeveloped land between development and the arterial.

I MAR IWIT'i 0[S MOINU ri1CROFILMED BY JORM1•IICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND ULS MUINLS, iuw;; -5- Perhaps the key issue which argues in favor of the westerly alignment for 518 is that of the efficient provision of municipal services. This align- Ment will allow the City to provide a variety of municipal services, in- cluding police protection, fire protection, refuse pickup,, transit service, and schools in the most efficient manner. This entire area can be developed and served by one gravity sewer system, along with an efficient system of j streets. This could not be done if arterial 518 were to be located along the proposed IDOT alignment. The IDOT alignmentwould result in a discontinuous pattern of urban develop- ment. This alignment is, even now, within 900 feet of land which has been recently developed for residential uses. It is also within' 2,100 feet of i West High School. ;Even more significant is'the fact that the IDOT align- 20 ment bisects the area which is projected to be urbanized within the next years in a manner similar to the way the U.S. Highway'6 Bypass bisects the southern part of Iowa City. Highway 6 is presently flanked on both sides x by urban development. The construction of, another limited access arterial ' route will create another barrier for future development. -If urban develop- ` ment occurs west of this route; all municipal services which rely upon streets, including police and fire protection, and refuse and transit service, will.be'provitled in a much less efficient manner.' It is ;also i as transit will entirely possible that for a period of time, services such y just not be provided, specifically because of the City's inability to I provide this service to an isolated area ata reasonable cost. Initially, it also appears to be possible that school, children will have to f 'unior high schools, because of the "barrier tar and 9 be bussed to elementary J �� taint seem s much more reasonable It ter effect" of this arterial highway. Y to allow future development to occur on only one side of this barrier; ,and t this could be accomplished by the alignment shown on the City's adopted ; Comprehensive Plan. After extensive review of both alignments, it becomes readily apparent''that the construction of the arterial highway along the corridor as depicted in the City's adopted Comprehensive Plan will result in a rational pattern of Y P 'de � .'tient and efficient development for the City, and will enable the City to provide IDOT economical services to its residents; and the construction along the the final environmental state- alignment is not (as described on page, 78 of an alignment which integrates well into the land use patterns of; the ment) area; but rather one that creates serious land use conflicts_ which will generations living in function. to the detriment of both present and future Iowa City.

The program is described as follows: 1. snow and ice control on streets. With snowfalls of less than 4", salt will be used on all arterial, collector, and bus route streets and also on all residential streets over 2.5 degrees in slope. Altogether, this policy provides for salting on approximately two thirds of the streets in Iowa City. es''a depth f 4 or When snowfall or a combination of snowfalls reach o Whe P more, plowing will include all residential streets in addition to arterial, collector, bus routes and residential streets of greater than 2.5 degree slope. 2. Sidewalks. State law allows a municipality to turn the responsibility for sidewalk cleaning over to adjacent property owners. The City of Iowa City has done this. When the City receives a complaint on a sidewalk a notice is hung on the doorknob. The next day the sidewalk is investigated. If it has not been cleaned a work order is sent to the City Street Division and a letter is sent to the property owner with a'bill'asking payment for the work. The letter also states that if the'bill is not paid, the amount will be added to property taxes. If the same property owner fails to clean his'sidewalk a second time, f the procedure mentioned above is instituted again and, in addition, misdemeanor charges are filed in magistrate's court. The above procedure has several flaws: a. The StreetDivision is the agency called upon to actually clean the sidewalk. Complaints to clean sidewalks come in at precisely the same time the Street Division is cleaning streets, plowing snow, cleaning bridges, and removing, snow l throughout the City. In other words, the City is only able to clean 'a very, very limited number of sidewalks with Street Division personnel. Y' I4ICRDEILMCD BY J0 RM .MIC Rd•LA B. - CEDAR RAPIM 115 1401NE5. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND DES MOINES, IOWA "1 c Last winter the delay between notification to the property owner and the cleaning by the Street Division often reached , three weeks. Responsibility for cleaning sidewalks is up j to the property owner. There is simply no way the Street Division can take over the workload of several hundred property owners. Please be cautious in promising residents sidewalk cleaning services and apprise them of the two to three week delay that can be 'expected, if property owners fail to fulfill their responsibilities for cleaning sidewalks. b. The legal procedure for both billing of a property owner and filing of charges in magistrate's court is extremely time consuming; The Legal Department advises that the State code 'to is rigid on the handling of this matter and there appears be no method in which we could just simply hand out a ticket much like a speeding ticket to a property owner. This is particularly true because many property owners are absentee landlords. C. iThe best way to obtain cleaning of sidewalks seems to be by public education and by strongly enforcing the present ordinance. In particular, publicity about filing of charges in magistrate's court would help. 3. During the winter, Public Works receives almost fanatical demands for clean, bare, dry streets'. Conversely, as soon as winter is over,' Public Works receives many complaints about vegetation damage adjacent to the roadways. erie nce the demand for clean, bare, dry streets far out- past experience, weighson the pressures for, less damage to vegetation. One winter a few years weighs ago, the City attempted a policy of no salting on residential streets. This,policy.lasted until the end of the first snowstorm and Council had an emergency meeting', and revised the policy. The best approach seems to be for the City to apply only the minimum amount of salt necessary to do - the job but apply ittoall of the 'streets mentioned earlier. With the acquisition of two new salt spreaders this winter, all of the City's 'it'is equipment will be of the type that can be calibrated so that coordinated _v with truck speed. There t ill still be vehicle breakdowns, calibrations not this set exactly and this type of thing but ultimately at the end of winter on. City type of machinery will result in several tons less salt being placed streets. j The Street Division and the Equipment Division are in the final process of preparing for this winter. If Council desires a different policy than that stated above, 'please notify Public Works as promptly as possible. cc: Craig Minter Marilyn Collier T MICROFILMED BY JORM MICR+L.AB .

"Several of the neighbor z this:nuisance for sometime and have ,been in quite close contact with me.

'Also, the refuse division indicates that atleast 'two city .:employees have fallen in,this area. Effortslto resolve this matter by negotiation have not succeeded. The property, owners have indicated that they feel the City is at least '.' partly to blame in;this matter because it has permitted sump pumps to I' empty onto the City street.. Our response has been. that ',while we can.. understand their feelings about this matter, yet it is true that there are many sump pumps that enter onto City streets where no problem is caused.' However, where 'a certain sump pump discharges so much water that a large problem occurs, we feel itisencumbentupon the property owner to remedy the problem. City employees last week cleaned the area as much as possible pending final solution of this matter. We did this so that the danger to the public would be reduced. Since this matter has not been resolved through, talking with the prop- erty owner and neighbors, the City is proposing to use the procedures' , under 364.12, 1977 Code of Iowa, to abate this problem. The procedures involve the giving anotice to the affected property owner by certified mail, return receipt requested, requesting the 'owner to remedy the problem within a reasonable time, which time we would specify. If the owner does not remedy the problem by that time, the City would then come I in and make abate the ,problem, .and would then present the bill to .the i Council,,requesting that the Council certify the cost of the abatement against the property ,taxes of the owner. Of course, the owner would be g certification before the city Council, and given notice of the pendin would have the opportunity to appear in his or her behalf.

This estimate assumes that the underground circuit route would be essentially the e as that ofl the previously mentioned overhead circuit. i Iowa -Illinois has also indicated that there is an existing low pressure gas main on Capitol Street which would have to be abandoned prior to the start of construction on the proposed jail. ,This would, necessitate the installation of an,intermediate pressure gas -line to provide service to the houses owned by the University on -the west side of Capitol Street. The Courthouse is presently served by a 100-1b:, ' 2 -inch line'Oich extends 125 feet north from Harrison Street in the area between the cast curb of Capitol Street and the sidewalk." This line would have to be s ex ensc 'to provide as service to the Courthouse relocated, at the contractor. p p g i iduring the time of jail construction. i There are no telephone cables or storm sewers located on this property. j i The impact of the proposed vacation on traffic was evaluated by the City's Traffic I' both through traffic and local traffic evaluation looked 'at bo g Engineer. This oval s years) circulation. It was Mr. Brachtel's' assumption that during the short-term (5-6 ears the closure would have little impact on either type of traffic.' lie further in-• dicated that longer term impact would depend largely on the intensity and nature of redevelopment in this area. I. In evaluating traffic impact, the "neighborhood" area which was used was ,bounded by Gilbert Street on the east, Denton Street on the south, Riverside Drive on the west, and Burlington Street on the north. It was determined that, traffic which s likely not has neither an origin nor a destination in would most this neighborhoodY be impacted by the proposed closure. - In other words, most through traffic would continue using, the existing arterial system and not seek an alternative which would penetrate this neighborhood. However, trips from the area to either the Central I Business District or the southwest part of Iowa City would probably be impacted ' Y tv MICROFILMED BY - JORM MICRmLAB CEDAR RAPIDS - bFS MOINES 1;11CROFILMED BY JORM 141CROLAB • CEDAR RAPIDS AND DES MOINES, IUvIA City; Council _ September 28, 1978 Page 3 by the proposed closure. Even with this closure, the traffic capacity of the Benton Street bridge river crossing would be a limiting factor relative to the ! amount of traffic going through the area. This type of traffic would then use either Madison or Clinton Streets to gain access to either Burlington or Benton Streets. Ii Of some significance is the fact that Capitol Street does have the only grade 1 separated crossing of the Rock Island Railroad tracks in the study area. At this ' time the street, however, does not have continuity all the way to Burlington because of the construction of the Pentacrest Garden Apartments and therefore the closure of an additional block of Capitol Street would not be of major significance. Furthermore, when the Madison Street trunk sewer project with the related, street paving is completed, the Madison Street to Harrison Street. to Capitol Street route ;will be as equally servicable as the present route which utilizes' Madison Street to Court Street to Capitol Street. Essentially, the closure, of the subject property will not produce dramatic changes'in the traffic circulation pattern in this area. j The Traffic Engineer indicated that longer term impact will depend upon the decisions If of the University of Iowa relative to what type of construction if any, that 'might occur in thearea west of Capitol Street and south of Burlington. At the present time the University does not have any specific plans relative to improvements in • this area. - Mr. Brachtel also indicated that it would be very desirable for adequate off-street parking to be provided for traffic generators in this area so, that the remaining street system 'can ,be used for the movement of vehicular traffic rather than for storage purposes. The Traffic Engineer also suggests that the vacation not occur until: the County is ready to begin actual construction on the project and that the County very carefully - look at the need of providing adequate off-street parking for users and visitors for the County office complex. A member of the Planning and Zoning Commission also questioned the impact of the potential closure on the 'river corridor sewer construction project. The City ( Engineer indicated that' Madison Street will be closed from late fall, 1978, until {, the end of summer, 1979.' Different portions of this ,street 'will be closed at I different times and cast -west access to Clinton Street will be provided for the University. Mr. Dietz does not see any dramatic impact resulting from the closure i of an additional: one block length of Capitol Street.'; If the construction on the ; jail begins prior to the end of summer of 1979, and most likely it will, then it is possible ,that the part of Madison Street west of the subject property will be closed at the same time that the proposed jail is under construction. s An appreciable amount of correspondence has occurred' between the County and the University of Iowa on this subject. Specific University interests revolve around three major areas. These include: (1) The University owns the entire block west of the proposed jail site. h (2) The proposed jail ,site is, in the sight line of the Old Capitol and conceivably MICROFILM BY JORM MICR46LAB .. .CEDAR RAPIDS 06 M014ESI 6i1CROFILM ED BY JORM MICROLAB • CEDAR RAPIDS AND UES MOINES, IUViA City Council September 28, 1978 ' t Page 4 might have an adverse aesthetic impact on the extended Old Capitol area. (3) The, University's general` concerns about the effect of this proposed street closing on traffic and circulation for the University. The University has indicated that it is most grateful, of the County's position to work with the University and to seek its active consultation and suggestions as the project is developed.: t` The impact on the land owned by the University on the west side of Capitol Street (contiguous to the proposed vacation) can't be adequately assessed at this time because the University does not have specific plans for this parcel of land. It { is assumed that as plans develop, the University will provide reaction in this r area. I President Boyd has specifically commented on the aesthetic impact of the proposed construction on the Old Capitol.President'Boyd reaffirmed the University's "steadfast conviction" that the City, County, and, the University remain committed to the role of the Old Capitol as the traditional center of the community. He , further' indicated ;that'; he hoped that it would be possible for both present and future generations to maintain the integrity of the four approaches totfie Old Capitol on Iowa Avenue and Capitol Street'.' He also stated that it was his position r from the that encroachment on these streets would detractappearance of the Old Capitol.' In summation, it was Mr. Boyd's position that he hoped that the County would not, in any way, encroach into Capitol Street. " ! Depending upon the actual siting, of the proposed jail, it would appear that there is a conceivable problem between the County and the University on this question. First Assistant County Attorney J. Patrick White has visited with the County's architect on this subject and has indicated that they will address this specifically in the schematic design phase of the project. Mr. White, also indicated that he hoped this could be done prior to the actual vacation and conveyance, and that the University counsel and comments would be actively sought throughout the schematic design phase of the project. The University has also indicated that,: because of the indefinite, nature of, future plans in the area, they have not been able to very completely assess the impact of h the street closings on traffic and circulation as it'affects the University.' It appears as though the long-term accessibility to most of the University property k south of Burlington Street' will, not be 'greatly hindered provided that Madison Street continues to provide access to the property. Itis not possible for the City staff to assess specific traffic impacts unless, and until, more specific land use decisions are made by the University. a impact ars active and The proposed location is a reasonable one from a land use p p p there is generally good compatibility with surrounding land uses." It is recommended that, if the Council decides to vacate and convey thi property to the County, that a more complete assessment of the various, costs involved be made. It appears to be entirely possible at this time that the relocation of utilities might cost in excess of $100,000. In that the City has not budgeted ,for this project it would appear reasonable to have :the County assume these costs. 141CROFILMED BY JORM MICR(6LAE3"CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES CEDAR.

Tanglewood/Ventura Special Assessment - We are a little bit behind on this project but I inten— tU t it for a public hearing hopefully sometime during the month of September. Because of the time involved due to'a',special ' assessment, I would not envision that we will be going to construction on the project before next spring. However, I do expect we will be completing the project this fiscal year. 6. PY79 Landfill Pro'ect - Based on the information I have received concerning t e nee for more landfill space, we have given this project a lower priority than would normally be done. Right now we anticipate completing plans and specifications sometime in September with a bid date perhaps in October. This will make it extremely late to get it completed this fall. Therefore, we are anticipating giving a, completion date of perhaps next June or July and then let the contractor decide when he might want to begin the project. This may provide a price break. 7. South Gilbert Street - We have gotten approval from the State to hire an appraiser. Paul Glaves is helping to secure us an appraiser i and we should 'begin appraisals towards the end of September. We have completed some of the background requirements to begin the right of way acquisition 1pr6cedures and I think we're about back to where' 'rim, we were when we, found out about the snag of ,using Federal aid funds for right of way acquisitions. We obviously not going to make a construction schedule this. year but I think we should be inl pretty ' good shape to get .the 'bids out after the first of the year and get a good jump on it the first thing next; spring. I believe the; other projects on the chart are fairly self-explanatory. We have lost all of our summer help for the season and have not gotten all the i < desirable field work completed that wewould have liked to. However, if we don't run into too many more crisis type projects I believe we can get things fairly well buttoned up for this fiscal year through the course of the next several months. i' I p h MICROFILMED BY ".

A better indication of how we stand on the budget should be forthcoming after the 15th of I t j jf the month when the new computer run does come out for the month of 1 August.. PRODUCTION The month of August was an exremely good month for the Streets Division. i We completed several projects during the month of August including the preparation of all of our roads for oiling and our mud jacking program. t Our crack sealing program began during the month of August and was able t to,accomplish quite a little bit more than had been previously accomplished -, during the month of June. The concrete repair and curb repair program is extremely successful with productivity running as much as SOx higher r than what we had originally estimated.-Ofmajor importance was the t First and Court Friendship and Court intersection , p projects, along with i other additional projects done in conjunction with the overlay program. I We also spent a considerable amount of time completing service requests .and made inroads into completing our large backlog. We have placed 4 � 1,252.85 tons of rock, 137.04 tons of asphalt, and 263.50 cu.yds. concrete. i in the month of August. f METHODS AND PROCEDURES i i .,+Y--"'---^FILMED BY JORM MICR+LAB CEDAR RAPIDS •DCS MINES 141CROFILMED BY JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS AND DES MOINES, IOWA . n 3 i Our original intent was to use anepoke spreader to spread chips on all ' roads on theroad oiling program. The epoke spreader, -however, has not turned out to be satisfactory inability to s read chips wide Y P P i enough to cover .one lane. This problem has been corrected by 8 usin fox I hydraulic spreaders to spread allchips on all of our road 'oiling projects. I ..t. Our infrared heaters which arrived during the month of August were L, utilized successfully to remove high spots in asphalt roads and show much promisetoward permanent winter patching. i PURCHASES AND COMMODITIES I Bids were received for our two hydraulic y.drawl' spres dersand also for snow plows. It appears,at. this time, that both our snow plows and our hydraulic spreaders should arrive some time around the first of November. I� Our utilitzation of Lloyd Pelling as our main distributor. for oil has . I �. proved to be very satisfactory up to this point. It has reduced the amountof effort that would be required. to constantly order and reorder oil tankers and has allowed our operators a little more flexibility in j completion time, thus assuring'a higher quality operation. I still intend to purchase one, hydraulic vibratory plate compactor and on trailer unit for our asphalt crews as previously discussed and include I' theurchase of three additional nal units of each in next ears x budget. Bet. I have, however, not written specs or, in fact, got any bids at this time e } t on either one of these items.

On August 28 the new fall schedule was started. Two additional f routes were 'begun - the Hawkeye Express and the Eastside Shuttle. Also, with the new trippers Transit began providing meal ,breaksfor morning'andafternoon full-time drivers. At the same time, anew a policy was instituted in which drivers are not paid show-up/turn-in time unless they, actually worked it. These three 'changes resulted in i a great 'amount of confusion, which by the end of the month had not 1 . been entirely resolved. 4. ) Due to the continuing shortage, of drivers, the hiring and training of + replacements,' and the very ,time consuming work in rewriting c edules.to'accomodate.new runs and meal reliefs, the transit staff s h .� ' ,. was unable to do much work oneither the State or the Federal. transit grants.
