ITEM NO. 4 - PLANNING AND ZONING MATTERS.
a. Consider setting a public hearing for July 31, 1984, on
amendments to the Zoning Ordinance to bring the Iowa City
Municipal Code into compliance with recent State legislation
regarding manufactured housing.
Comment: The 70th Iowa General Assembly passed legislation
prohibiting the restriction of manufactured housing from
single-family residential zones. This legislation is
effective July 2, 1984. Revision of the Iowa City -Zoning
Ordinance is required for compliance with the State statute.
Setting a public hearing at this time will place a 60 -day
moratorium on any construction contrary to the proposed
amendments and will provide time for the Planning and Zoning
Commission to make a recommendation to the City Council. A
proposed ordinance and letter discussing this matter are
enclosed with this agenda. The staff will be prepared to
discuss other possible options with regard to this legisla-
tion, including the establishment of a six month moratorium
period.
Action: 4;a
b. Consider setting a public h6aring for July 31, 1984, on an
ordinance to rezone property at 624 South Gilbert Street
from CI -1 to CC -2. (Z-8410)

held June 21, 1984, recommended by a vote of 6-0 approval of
the rezoning of 624 South Gilbert Street from CI -1 to CC -2.

island and define planting area. The Planning and Zoning

_ji Lt h. Consider an ordinance to amend the off-street parking design
standards and locational requirements to exempt single-

Comment: The Planning and Zoning Commission has recommended
by a vote of 6-0 adoption of an amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance to exempt single-family dwellings (including zero

standards for inclusion in the Zoning Ordinance, adopted
December 1983, eliminated this exception. The proposed
amendment will reestablish the exemption.

ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF IOWA CITY, IOWA.
(passed and adopted)
Comment: Sections 31-2. Coasting. of the Code of Ordinances
presently reads: "No person shall coast or slide down any street
or sidewalk in any commercial district." The Legal Department
and the Police Department feel that this section should be amended
to more specifically prohibit the use of skateboards and roller
skates in the Central Business District. The staff has reviewed
Mr. Zimmerman's request that there be an exemption to accommodate
the renting of skates. To have a partial ban and/or exemption
for rollerskating in the Central Business District does not seem
to be feasible. Therefore, the staff recommends that the City
Council either not pass the ordinance or, if you believe this is
a problem, then institute a prohibition against skating in the
Central Business District.
