d. Setting Public Hearings.
(1) Consider setting a public hearing at 7:30 p.m. on
Tuesday, April 10, 1984, to consider an ordinance
amending Chapter 17 of the Code of Ordinances, the
Housing Code, by creating an exemption from the
minimum room size for the second bedroom of a
two-bedroom mobile home; and by amending the
section requiring approved garbage storage contain-
ers by requiring that said containers be stored on
the premises served but not in the front yard, the
required side yard or a parking space.
Comment: The Housing Commission requested a change
in the minimum room size requirement for two (2)
bedroom mobile homes. Many older two-bedroom
mobile homes have one bedroom meeting the required
70 square feet of floor area, but have a second
bedroom with less than 70 square feet of floor
area. By creating the exemption, owners or tenants
would not require a variance in order to use the
bedroom. The Housing Commission voted unanimously
to support his code change.
The amendment requiring the housing inspectors to
police the placement of garbage storage containers
was developed at the request of the City Council.
The Housing Commission unanimously voted to not
support this amendment. Among the concerns raises
by the Commission were the practicality of enforce-
ment and the increased possibility of variance
requests. See minutes of the Housing Commission
meeting of March 7, 1984.
(2) Consider setting a public hearing on March 27,
1984, on a Resolution authorizing execution of an
amended access easement for Urban Renewal Parcel
64-1b (Hotel).
Comment: Because of the lack of space behind the
hotel, additional area is needed to allow room for
trucks to maneuver for loading and unloading, so
the easement previously sold to the developer needs
to be enlarged. Dr. Johnson will pay for the
additional space at the same rate per square foot
($2.70) as the original easement. The additional
area contains approximately 2,352 square feet, so
the additional payment will be $6,350.40.

Consider resolution authorizing the Mayor to sign
and the City Clerk to attest an agreement with the

550 (2) Consider resolution authorizing the Mayor to sign

TO THE IOWA CITY COMMUNITY SCHOOL DISTRICT OF A PARCEL OF
LAND ON THE IOWA CITY MUNICIPAL AIRPORT FOR A ONE-YEAR TERM

Comment: This public hearing was originally set for
February 14, 1984. It was deferred until February 28 when

to renew for 21 additional years. In return, the City will
obtain a permanent access easement over the School Board
property abutting the Airport, $300 in rent for each of the
first ten renewal periods of one year, and thereafter such
rent as may be agreed upon by the parties. No action will
be taken by the Council until FAA review is completed.
