OLD LIBRARY REDEVELOPMENT: Reel 84-C46, Side 1
City Attorney Jansen stated that Atty. John Cruise representing GWG
Investments drafted an amendment to the development agreement. Jansen
reviewed the proposed amendment from GWG which included the following:
transfer delayed until September 10, 1985, for the parking lot (lots 1 and
2); that GWG be granted an additional 18 month period of time to meet the
minimum investment requirement of the agreement; and GWG will not con-
struct an addition to the existing library building for the purposes of
meeting the investment requirements. However, GWG may, at its own option,
elect to construct part of a new building on the portion of Lot 3 along
College Street and the cost of such construction on Lot 3 will contribute
to GWG's investment requirement. Cruise explained that GWG doesn't want
to give up the right to get credit towards the 300 percent requirements.
Cruise reviewed two plans to build a 64'x190' building fronting College
Street or a larger building on the entire lot. In response to McDonald,
Jansen stated the Council has final design approval. The Council
discussed the 18 month extension on the parking lot, downtown parking
needs, the 300 percent expenditure on improvements requirement, the
proposed building plans, and the original bidding requirements. Council
directed City Attorney Jansen to write an opinion regarding decreasing the
300 percent requirement and a proposed amendment to the original agreement
that would include the reduction of the 300 percent requirement, exten-
sion of time period to fulfill the requirement, and the 18 month parking
lot extension. Council will schedule another discussion in three weeks.
SIDEWALK CAFES IN OUTDOOR SERVICE AREAS: Reel 84-C46, Side 2
McDonald noted that Bushnell's doesn't comply with the outdoor service
area criteria as previously agreed upon by the Council. Berlin stated
that Gabe's also raised concerns about not being able to comply with the
criteria due to the rear entrance use. Council discussed eliminating
screening requirements, grandfathering requirements for established
businesses, and rewriting the criteria. Council agreed to grandfather the
outdoor service area criteria for establishments already in operation. A
revised policy will be prepared for Council consideration on June 5th.
Regarding sidewalk cafes, Jansen explained that if a cafe has a liquor
and/or beer permit, and extends business out onto the public right-of-way,
the City cannot regulate hours of service on that public right-of-way. The
State would consider the public right-of-way as part of the same premise
2
because the State requires a diagram and dram shop coverage of the
utilized public right-of-way area on the license application. Council
agreed to allow non-alcoholic sidewalk cafes and not consider requests for
sidewalk cafes from establishments that have a liquor or beer license.
VIDEOTAPE - SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT PRIVATIZATION: Reel 84-C46, Side 2
Viewing of the sewage treatment plant videotape was postponed for two

i Newly Elected" from the current issue of Iowa Municipalities.
4. Ambrisco expressed his dissatisfaction with the State's ability to

5.. In response to Baker, Berlin said staff will follow-up on a citizen's
lost bus pass.
6. In response to Strait, Jansen said no hearing date has been set in the
declaratory judgment filed by Atty. Zimmerman representing Dooley's
(re sign).
7. Strait quested the quick -paced schedule for the low- to moder-
ate -income housing project scheduled by Jim Clark. He also requested
Council consider the questions and suggestions made by CCN regarding
the Clark project. McDonald explained that Clark's attorney, Joe
Holland, would be present at the public hearing to answer questions.
8. In response to McDonald, Berlin explained that the historic preserva-
tion intern will be paid by certified local government grant money.
The grant can be reapplied for in future years.
9. Berlin stated the City will monitor spending to avoid problems that
could occur due to property tax collection delinquencies. The City

that Berlin inform Council if budget problems arise.

Dooley's has been resolved.
11. Berlin stated that the federal government will not approve the bidding

Councilmember Ambrisco noted a number of calls from the local bike

Ambrisco reported that the footbridge was not wide enough to allow
bicyclists to ride and the bikes would have to be walked across. Ambrisco

informal session re remodeling the Capitol Street ramp. Ambrisco requested
staff investigate the accident history of the College and Clinton inter-
section and requested Council explore alternatives to making the intersec-
tion safer. Council requested the matter be given high priority. Council -
member Ambrisco urged the public to vote as today was Primary Election
Day. Erdahl noted, with appreciation, the shorter titles on the agenda re
industrial revenue bond approval. Councilmember Baker inquired when the
benches on the north side of the Old Capitol Mall would be removed. The
City Manager reported they were in the process of moving them and addi-
tional seating had been provided. Baker referred to discussion at the
informal session re dirt and debris on City streets, and requested staff
also investigate 521 Kirkwood Avenue. Baker requested update on
televising informal sessions. The Mayor complimented staff on the quick
response to a problem re mud an the streets earlier in the week.
The recommendations of the Design Review Committee noted as follows:
The Design Review Committee indicated its approval of the building design

PLANNING AND ZONING:
to
Knight explained that staff did not recommend approval because it is
inconsistent with the Fringe Area 4 policy. Atty. Steven Gerard, repre-
senting the property owners, explained the rezoning would allow a third
family member to build and live on the property and would not take any
land out of crop production. Council noted that staff's recommendation is
consistent with the Fringe Area Agreement, but the rezoning request is
valid due to a farm family exception.

Knight explained this is subject to the conditions of the Airport Overlay

sion ordinances passed before the moratorium is lifted in ten months.
No discussion.

No discussion.
NEW LAW SCHOOL PARKING DESIGN: Reel 84-05O, Side 1
Dick Gibson presented a preliminary design of the expanded site develop-
ment project which includes the new Law School parking area. He explained
that the design includes 62 parking spaces, restoring natural grades
across Melrose Avenue, putting in an all-weather pathway to Myrtle Street,
sidewalks, lighting, and trees. Neighborhood traffic patterns will be
examined on streets surrounding the area to insure smooth traffic flow.
PHARMACEUTICAL DEVELOPMENT INCORPORATED: Reel 84-050, Side 1
A design engineer from Shive-Hattery reviewed the proposed changes to the
Pharmaceutical Development Incorporated site plan. The minor changes
include relocating the office building (one side to another), shifting
warehouse location, modifying parking and drainage patterns, changing the
building exterior, and moving the location of driveways along Heinz Road.
The building's exterior walls are made of prestressed concrete slabs. The
representative explained that additional shrubbery and vegetation will be
planted beyond the minimum requirements.
CABLE TV SALE:
Drew Shaffer and Michael Sigrin answered questions from the Council.
Council briefly commented on the memo from Nick Johnson and agreed to
pursue the 11 Broadband Telecommunications Commission's recommended
conditions for approval of sale. Shaffer noted that the franchise
agreement expires in 1994 and that it is not an exclusive franchise. In
response to Baker, Shaffer said that Berlin has asked ATC for a breakdown
of the purchase and about rate regulation. Berlin noted that the purchase
price of the system won't have to be entirely absorbed by system users
because of tax benefits gained by Heritage Cable. Helling said that the
proposed legislation limits increases to a maximum of five percent per
year over the next six years after the expiration of the City rate cap in
four years. In response to Erdahl, Sigrin said that although municipal
ownership of the cable system might be a theoretical ideal, time and money
constraints prevent City purchase at this time. Erdahl noted that
although the actual value of the current cable system would be $3-$5
million if constructed today, tax incentives allow Heritage to offer over
$11 million as well as the advantage of having a franchise without
competition. Shaffer said the City probably cannot regulate the sale
price but it could temporarily freeze rates. McDonald said that the
system users can choose to drop the service because of high rates. Erdahl
3
replied that poor people shouldn't be deprived of basic services such as
the library channel. Dickson said that the high purchase price "is the
result of unabashed greed." Jansen said a cable economist could do an
appraisal as a basis for controlling the price. Helling said that an
appraiser would cost about $5,000. Sigrin said that the City might be
entitled to its three percent franchise fee for the purchase price in
access of the system's actual property value. Jansen said that the
ordinance is silent on that point. He will research this question and
report back to Council. Strait suggested that Nick Johnson be included on
the City's negotiating team. Erdahl said that the Commission's decision
on negotiating team membership should be honored. The Council agreed that
the committee's 11 points should be negotiated along with the issue of the
three percent franchise fee applied to the portion of the purchase price.
Helling pointed out that the application of the three percent franchise
fee to a portion of the current purchase price relates to ATC only, while
a franchise fee increase will be negotiated with Heritage. Council agreed
to add a 12th point to negotiations with Heritage providing for the City
to receive franchise fee revenue on a portion of profits from any future
sale of the franchise.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING: Reel 84-050, Side 2
Berlin stated the Council should contact Lorraine about items they wish to
discuss at the June 27th meeting with the Board of Supervisors, Elm Grove
Park, Fringe Area Agreement, ambulance service, and environmental fragile
