City Manager 61j 4 b; City Attorney .CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA TO INSTALL FOUR it METERED PARALLEL PARKING STALLS .IN FRONT OF THE FIELD HOUSEON GRAND AVENUE. Comment: At'the present time there is, an indentation in the curb in front of the Athletic Office with completely uncontrolled Parking. In order to control parking, the University would like to install meters. They would be completely responsible for ownership, installation, m aintenance, enforce— ment' 'and ,would receive,the revenues generated by these meters.. At the present1time, the City and the University have an informal agreement th6tithe University is in charge of meter control in, the area. Public i Works recommends approval of this resolution. -T '2 Action: Item-No. 9 CONSIDER A. RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE INSTALLATION OF THREE 30 -MINUTE: ,-it: PARKING METER STALLS ON,THE SOUTH SIDE OF IOWA AVENUE FROM A POINT APPROXI - MATELY.100FEET EAST OF THE,INTERSECTION OF IOWA: AVENUE WITH VAN BUREN , STREETIASTIAPPROXIMATELY 60 FEET. Comment: i The proposed.resolution would provide short-term parking for the commercial enterprise located the the Iowa Avenue Building. As was noted in Mr. j ames Schnaebilen's letter oft February 19, 1977; the existing usage is �long-term parking which':is not�related to the activities of the Iowa Avenue Building. This condition has promoted double parking to occur in the single eastbound traffic lane of Iowa Avenue. The proposed, resolution reflects the changes desired by Council limiting the meter stalls to the area immediately in front of the Iowa: Avenue Building. :i� Action: Aft- -e-16 ),u 4 }r ' Agenda Regular Council Meeting 3..
