ANALYSIS
The applicant, Ken Ranshaw, is requesting approval of a Large Scale
Non -Residential Development Plan for Phase 2 of R Plaza. The proposed plan
includes a series of six small office spaces with attached warehouse
space, a 4455 square foot warehouse building and 30 12' X 22' garage
(storage) units. These uses require a total of 34 parking spaces and a
total of 51 parking spaces are provided (not counting the garage units.)
The property is located in the CI -1 zone, and the proposed uses conform
with the provisions of that zone.
The proposed development is also located in the Airport Overlay Zones,
clear overlay (OCL) zone and the approach overlay (OA) zone. As a result,
the project is subject to the use and height limitations of those two
zones. The OCL zone use limitations provide that No use shall be permit-
ted in which there is connected therewith a building designed according to
the uniform building code (1979 Edition) with an occupancy rating of 50
square feet of floor area per person or less." In addition, twelve
specific uses are prohibited in this zone. Both the office and warehouse
uses proposed in Phase 2 of R Plaza conform to these provisions (office
space has an occupancy rating of 100 square feet per person, and warehouse
space has an occupancy rating of 300 square feet per person).
The OA Zone is defined as "The land lying under a surface longitudinally
centered on the extended runway centerline and extending outward and
upward from each end of the primary surface." The south property line of
the lot in question is located 552 feet north of the end of runway 17.
The approach surface for this runway extends for a horizontal distance of
5000 feet at a slope of 20:1. The height limitation for the proposed de-
velopment ranges from 26.6 feet at the rear property line to approximately
38 feet at the edge of the northernmost building proposed in Phase 2.
Building elevations should be submitted establishing the height of the
proposed structures prior to approval of the LSNRD plan. In addition, the
mature height of trees proposed to comply with the requirements of the
Tree Ordinance should be identified by species to ensure that their mature
height will fall within those height limitations.
The provisions of the Airport Overlay Zones also state that "Any person
who proposes any development of greater height than an imaginary surface
extending outward and upward at a slope of 100:1 for a horizontal distance
of 20,000 feet from the nearest point of the nearest runway shall notify
the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)." The applicant has already
mailed the Federal Aviation Administration the required FAA form 7460-1,
Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration, a copy of which is attached
to this staff report. Verification should be obtained from the FAA that
they have received the required information. Note: this is purely a
notification process, rather than a review and approval requirement. Once
the City has verified that the FAA has been notified, this requirement has
been met.
A final concern of the Approach Overlay Zones is that "All lighting or
illumination used in conjunction with street, parking, signs or use of
land and structures shall be arranged and operated in such a manner that
/5W
Page 3
it is not misleading or dangerous to aircraft operating from the airport
or in the vicinity thereof." A note has been provided on the plan to this
effect.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the preliminary and final Large Scale Non -Residen-
tial Development Plan for R Plaza, Phase 2, be deferred. Upon resolution
of the above concerns, and the resolution of the deficiencies and discrep-
ancies listed below, staff would recommend approval.

We have calculated the airspace protection elevation for the proposed structures
to assure ourselves that the proposed structures are lower than the required air-
space elevation. Attachment "A" details our calculations and shows how we con-
cluded that the proposed buildings will be beneath the required airspace protection
elevation.
The intended uses for the proposed buildings will be as follows:
Garages: garages or as storage facilities (mini -warehouses)
Office -Warehouse: offices with attached warehouse area.
For your reference and information, the buildings already constructed during the
initial work on R -Plaza (Phase One) were assigned Aeronautical Study Numbers

Dear Mr. Renshaw:
Iowa City, Iowa
Notice of Proposed Construction/Garages/Office-
Warehouses/Warehouses
FAA Airspace Case No. 84 -ACE -522 -OE
We have determined from our aeronautical study that your proposal to
construct a one (1) story (180' x 441) garage complex, a one (1) story
(1351 x 58') office -warehouse complex, and a one (1) story warehouse
structure (811 x 55 +-) would not exceed Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) obstruction standards.
Although the proposed construction would not exceed FAA obstruction
standards we recommend that you reconsider erecting structures on these
sites. The building sites are located within the clear zone for
runway 17 and, in order to enhance safety, we discourage the erection
of any structures within runway clear zones. If you.elect to proceed
with the planned construction you must bear the burden of any potential
liability exposure.
We must point out that any facility which contributes to the.
congregation of people within a runway clear zone is considered an
airport hazard. Further, no land use which is incompatible with
normal airport operations (e.g., the storage of fuel or hazardous
materials) should be permitted on the land identified in the Notice
which you submitted. We suggest that you consult with appropriate
City officials with respect to local land use restrictions.
Sincerely,
Original signed by

MEMORANDUM
Date: August 8, 1984
To: City Council
From: Karin Franklin, Associate Planner
Re: Tree Regulations
Attached is a revised ordinance to amend the tree regulations. The revisions
underlined are changes made to the version you received for your July 3rd
meeting. These revisions reflect comments made at the public hearing or at
Council meetings, and last minute editorial changes.
Section 36-72(b)(2) is amended to more clearly state the intent of this
particular provision. The original language was not clear in explaining how
development with insufficient yards would occur. The intent of the provision
is to not restrict, through the tree regulations, development on a lot where
the development complies with the minimum yard requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance.
An asterisk in the margin indicates the deletion of the word "size" in
reference to large and small trees. The terms "large" and "small" in the
ordinance refer to the mature height of trees; "size" refers to the dimension
of the tree at the time of planting.
The most significant change is to Section 36-73(a)(2)f and Section
36-73(c)(2)d. This change is in response to a comment received during the
public hearings regarding an inconsistency between the provision which
restricted the placement of trees on private property within a 30 foot
equilateral triangle at street intersections [36-73(a)(2)f and (c)(2)d] and a
provision which required a given setback for trees within the public right-
of-way at street intersections [36-73(a)(3)c]. The provision dealing with
trees on private property was more restrictive, i.e. it required trees to be
further from the paving, than that dealing with trees in the right-of-way.
Both provisions were designed to deal with visibility along street rights-
of-way. With adoption of the original tree regulations, considerable work
was done by the Traffic Engineer to determine the appropriate setback
distances provided in Section 36-73(a)(3)c. A revision has been made to
Section 36-73(a)(2)f and 36-73(c)(2)d deleting the 30 foot triangle provision
and inserting in its place the setbacks along the curb line provided in
Section 36-73(a)(3)c. This should provide adequate visibility at intersec-
tions regardless of whether the trees are on private or public property,and
will more equitably deal with the private and public situations.
All other changes to the tree regulations, which are
rial and are minor in nature. The accompanying
traffic islands has been amended to clearly indicate
illustrative purposes only and that the provision of
and drives should be "similar" to the drawing and
shown.

The Mayor announced that the purpose of the meeting was to
hold and adjourn to August 28, 1984, a public hearing on the
proposal to issue not to exceed $3,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of the City's Industrial Development Revenue Bonds
(Southgate Development Company, Inc. Project), as required by
Section 419, Code of Iowa, and Section 103(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, for the purpose of financing
all or a portion of the costs of Southgate Development Company,
Inc., an Iowa corporation (the "Company"), relating to
acquiring, constructing, improving and equipping a new
approximately 30,000 square foot industrial facility located on
approximately 7.9 acres of land at 320 Heinz Road, Iowa City,
Iowa; and to change the name of the developer of the Project
from Pharmaceutical Development Systems, Inc. to Southgate
Development Company, Inc. It is proposed that the proceeds

/SSS
The use of the premises by the Good News Bible Church was established
prior to a change in the Zoning Ordinance reducing the number of permitted
roomers in single family zones. At the time of establishment, two roomers
were permitted with a family, as defined above, so four unrelated
individuals could legally reside in a single family house in this zone.
The ordinance amendment took place in November, 1983, and allowed for a
grace period of one year before compliance with the new ordinance was
required. After November of this year, no more than three unrelated
people may live at 1010 Hudson Avenue. A variance would permit the
continued occupancy of the premises by more than three people.
ANALYSIS
The granting of a variance requires that the owner demonstrate that
unnecessary hardship is imposed by the ordinance, and may be demonstrated
if no reasonable use can be made of the property. The ordinance must be
unduly burdensome with respect to the owner's property in contrast to all
other properties subject to the same provisions. In addition the granting
of the variance must also be consistent with the intent of the statute and
not be contrary to the public interest. The applicant has the burden to
prove all three of the elements or the variance must be denied.
If the applicants were denied the variance requested, they would be able
to continue to use the house for a residence for three people rather than
the four people currently permitted there. This may be difficult and
inconvenient for the applicants, however, the question is whether a
reasonable use of the property can be made by the owners. The use of this
property for rental purposes may continue, with a reduction of one from
the present occupancy. It is not evident, therefore, that a reasonable
use of the property is being denied.
The ordinance reducing the number of permitted roomers applies to all
single family residences and duplexes in the RS -5 and RS -8 zones. All
residences currently rented to more than one roomer will feel the impact
of the ordinance change on November 30, 1984. It is unclear that the
owners of 1010 Hudson Avenue will be burdened more by the reduction than
all others who must also comply.
The intent of the ordinance was to reduce the occupancy of single family
and duplex residences by persons who are unrelated to the family of the
residence. To permit a variance to the ordinance where hardship is not
demonstrated and the circumstances are not unique is contrary to the
intent of the law.
The public interest in this case relates to the impact the number of
residents in the house have on adjacent properties. The applicant states
that the neighbors have accepted the group living situation and have no
objections to the continued use of the premises by more than three people.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Since hardship, as defined in variance cases, has not been demonstrated,
the staff recommends that the variance requested to permit two roomers at
1010 Hudson Avenue be denied.

MEMORANDUM
Date: August 10, 1984
To: City Council and City Manager
pu
From: Rosemary Vitosh, Director of Finance
Re: Parking Rate Study
The Economic Analysis and Evaluation Report provides the results of the
parking rate study and recommended rate increases. Staff has reviewed the
report and recommends that the rate increases be implemented effective
September 1, 1984.
The rate should be implemented now because current parking revenue falls
short of meeting the required debt coverage, as explained in the report. In
addition the sale of bonds, for the additional levels to be added to the
Dubuque Street Parking Ramp, requires that the increased rates are in place
prior to marketing the bonds as that provides proof that the City has the
ability to raise sufficient revenues to meet bond covenants regarding debt
coverage. Construction is now projected to begin in January, 1985, after
Christmas shopping season. Bonds will be marketed shortly before construc-
tion begins.
Another factor to be considered is the parking agreement with the hotel. It
provides for the computation of the initial annual minimum fee at the
beginning of the first year of operation based upon the permit rate then in
effect. The September 1 effective date will allow for the increasdd rate to
be used in this 'computation which would be more equitable to all users of the
Parking System.
It should be noted that the most recent updated estimated cost of adding the
two levels to the Dubuque Street Parking Ramp is higher than the cost which
was used in the rate study. Therefore, based upon actual construction bids,
it may be necessary to implement the next scheduled increase in the hourly
rates in the parking ramps sooner than FY89, as proposed by the study. The
study provides a plan of action for future rate increases but is always open
to revision based upon the changing revenue needs of the Parking System.
However, it is prudent to maintain the rates as low as possible now and
implement increases only as needed in the future.
In conjunction with a rate increase, staff also recommends the following:
1. Both parking ramps charge for parking on Sundays.
2. The Dubuque Street Parking Ramp's hours of operation be extended to 24
hours daily.
These two recommendations deal with operating changes needed due to the
opening of the hotel. It is necessary to staff the parking ramp 24 hours a
day, seven days a week, in order to avoid the loss of revenue from hotel
guests who would otherwise exit the ramp during unstaffed hours. Our current
hours of operation exclude Sundays and operations now start at 7:30 a.m. in
the morning. 24-hour staffing would also provide an added measure of
security.
If the Dubuque Street Ramp is operating on Sundays, it only makes sense to
operate the Capital Street Ramp on Sundays too. Downtown merchants have, in
the past, indicated support for Sunday openings because it would provide for
traffic control, as needed, and increase security in the ramps on Sundays. It
should be noted that the Old Capitol Merchants Association has, on occasion,
hired its own people to monitor traffic control in the Capitol Street Ramp on
Sundays during the Christmas shopping season and for special activities or
sales scheduled on Sundays.
We would continue to have cashiers on duty in the Capitol Street Parking Ramp
from 7:30 A.M. to 3:00 A.M., Monday through Saturday, and from 7:30 A.M. to
10:00 P.M. on Sunday. Cars exiting when a cashier is not on duty will
deposit a flat fee of 50d at the exit gate.
To change the rates on our current meters it will be necessary to purchase
new parts for the meters and it could take up to six months to change all
meters to the new rates. The purchase and installation of new meters would
take approximately 1-2 months. Because of the age of some of our meters,
this would be an opportune time to replace some meters. The City last
purchased new meters in the early seventies and many meters are now 20-25
years old. Joe fowler, Parking Supervisor, will further research the costs
of the meter rate change and an implementation schedule, and report back to
Council on this in the near future.
The resolution on the agenda provides for the increased parking rates and
changes the parking ramps' hours of operation.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A study was conducted in May, June and July of this year on the operation of
the existing parking system, both on -street and off-street parking. The pur-
pose of this study was to analyze the revenue potential for both the on -street
and off-street parking, considering the addition of parking spaces to the
Dubuque Street Ramp and various alterations to the remaining parking system.
The operating characteristics of each of the parking areas was reviewed for
units parked and revenue generated. Based upon this analysis, it is the
recommendation of this study that the rates be increased in all parking areas.
i
The basic rate increase is as follows;
Parking structure from 24 per hour to 35a for the first hour and 30¢ each
additional hour.
Monthly permits increased from $25.00 to $32.50 per month.
The on -street meter rates will increase by the following;
20« meters to 30t and the 100 meters to 200.
The monthly permits for off-street parking lots should be increased from
$16.00 to $20.00 per month, and from $6.00 to 510.00 per month for City
Employees. The meter fines should increase from $2.00 to $3.00.
It is recommended that the rate be raised for the following reasons. The
City, in financing the two existing parking ramps agreed to certain bond cove-
nants, one of which was to maintain rates sufficient to produce net revenues
before principal and interest payments equal to 135 percent of the principal
and interest requirements for that given year. From FY 1980 through FY 1982,
this requirement was met. In FY 1983 however, the coverage was only 120 per-
cent. In FY 1984 the coverage is projected to be 110 percent. Based upon this
fact, revenues need to be increased to meet the bond covenant, and this can be
accomplished by raising the rates. Secondly, the rates are low, especially
the on -street and metered lot parking. The rates should be slowly raised to
both maintain useage and to increase the revenues.
On -street parking rates were considered low, especially when they offer some
of the most prime parking in the Central Business District. The purpose of
onstreet parking is to provide convenient, quick turnover spaces and thus
should be priced higher. While it is felt the rate increase for on -street
parking should be accepted, the implementation of that rate increase should
follow the reconmepdations of the demand study currently underway. This study
will recommend adjustments to meter times, locations and operation.
It is important to note that a reveiw of the parking rates in surrounding
cities was completed and that the proposed rate increases for FY 1985 are in
line with most of the rates in the cities reviewed. The proposed rate
increase is felt to be one that will be acceptable to both offices and retail
usages in the downtown area and the patrons who utilize the parking.
Considering Iowa City's unique position as a regional shopping center, the
rate increases were tempered so not to dissuade people from utilizing the
shops and services downtown.
Based upon the above rate increase, revenue projections were made for the
Parking structures, on -street parking, off-street parking and interest income
from reserve funds. The revenue projections for the two parking structures
represent moderate increase in the overall units parked (cars per year) level-
ing off in FY 1988-89. While a parking demand study has not been completed,
it was felt that these additional units would come from added demand for park-
ing generated by the new Holiday Inn and from visitor/customer demand generat-
ed from the eventual full occupancy of the Old Capital Center. For the
remaining parking areas no increase in units was projected, therefore any
changes upward in the revenue was due solely to the increased rates. This was
considered to be a conservative approach to the overall revenue projection for
the Iowa City Parking System.
/7%
The operating expenses for the parking system were also reviewed and projec-
tions were made for future years of parking expense. The operating expenses
were increased roughly 6% each year from FY 1985 through FY 1995. These oper-
ating expenses have taken into account additional expenses that will be in-
curred when the expansion of the Dubuque Street Ramp takes place. These added
expenses are shown on page 29, and are estimated at $26,450. This estimate was
based on the added labor, utilities and materials for the added spaces, as
well as, the 24 hour operation of the structure because of the Hotel. Also in
this regard, it was projected that at least the Dubuque Ramp would be open on
Sundays. The loss of potential revenue would far outweigh the added operating
expense.
I
Finally, an analysis was made of the net revenue (total revenue minus the
I' operating expenses) to arrive at an excess or deficit in revenue for the park-
ing system. In every year of the projection (FY 1985 through 1995) there is
an excess of revenue over debt service (principal and interest) in the bond
covenants entered into by the City. A 1.35 (135 percent) debt service cover-
age is required to be maintained. For the expansion of the parking system, a
jdebt service of 1.50 (150 percent) must be shown in every year for the term of
the bonds.
In conclusion, based upon the analysis completed in this study, an addition to
I
the Dubuque Street Ramp can be justified based upon the rate increase proposed
and the resulting increases projected in the overall revenue. Costs for the
I
Addition to the Dubuque Street Ramp have been further refined and have now
i'
been estimated at $1,558,000 or about $500,000 more than the estimate con-
tained in the body of this study. Increasing the construction or project
-3-
cost, increases the debt service requirement as shown on page 23 by about
$60,000. This adjustment, thus lowers the debt service coverages in the in-
surance in FY 1986, 1981, 1988, and 1995 in Rate Schedule A to below the re-
quired. This condition, however, does not occur with Rate Schedule B. It is
important to understand that the financing examples used for the expansion of
the Dubuque Street Ramp was intended only to provide a basis for further
analysis.
As a result of this study, the addition to the Dubuque Street Ramp can be
justified based upon the existing demand for parking and the projected demand
for parking from the Holiday Inn.

INTRODUCTION
A review was made of the existing parking system; the revenue and operating expen-
ses of both the off street and on street parking. various recommendations have
been made for both rate increases and adjustments to operations. The most impor-
tant recommendation has to do with the meters. Rates on the meters are now very
low. The purpose of on street meters is to provide rapid turnover as a convenience
to the customer or visitor. It is actually cheaper to park on the street and feed
the meter than it is to park in either structure. Placement of meters is another
problem not covered by this study, but that needs to be addressed. Short term
meters should be placed in an area of high turnover to promote that use. The fee
should reflect the convenience of these meters, and the time limit should be
strictly enforced.
RATES
Rate changes have been proposed as a part of the study, and are shown on the
following page 12. The recommendation is that the charge in the parking structures
be increased to 34 for the first hour, and 30¢ for each hour thereafter, from 25¢
per hour currently charged; and that the rate increase to 35¢ per hour in FY 1989
and 40¢ in FY 1992. An alternate charge (Schedule 8) would be 35¢ per hour in FY
1985, going to 40« in FY 1991. The permit or monthly rate in the structure should
be increased from $25.00 to $32.50, and then increased about every two years to
$35.00, $40.00 and $45.00. The meters should be increased as follows; the 20¢
meters to 30t and the 104 meters to 20t. An alternate rate proposal not used in
the computation was raising the 20a meters to 40$. Though. this was considered, it
was thought to be too high of an increase and one that would be unacceptable to the
public. Monthly permits on the surface lots should also be raised from $16.00 to
$20.00, and $6.00 to $10.00 for City Employees and meter fines from $2.00 to $3.00.
A summary of rates in surrounding cities are shown on pages 13, 14, and 15.
It is important to note that the rate recommendations do not include a variable
rate at the Capitol Street Ramp. It was requested that this concept be reviewed
but the consensus was that this arrangement would be detrimental to the shopping
public. The variable rate would incorporate a higher charge per hour on any time
beyond 4 hours, for example (30¢ per hour for the first 4 hours, then 40¢ per hour
thereafter). This would discourage long term parkers. There is already a Park and
Shop type validation system in place that addresses the needs of the shopper/visi-
tor downtown. It is cheaper for employees to pay the monthly charge as opposed to
the all day rate,, which would help discourage long term parking in the Capitol
Street Ramp. It is important to note that employee parking is in real demand down-
town, and while it is hard to quantify the needs in this phase of the study it
would be impossible to remove all employee parking that currently uses the Capitol
Street Ramp.

All the following revenue projections assume implementation of the proposed
rate change as of September lst, 1984. This results in two (2) months com-
puted at the existing rates, and ten (10) months at the proposed rates for
FY 1985.
CAPITOL STREET RAMP
As part of the analysis of the Capitol Street Ramp, three months of daily
tickets were analyzed; March, July and October of 1983. This was done to
establish ticket averages and the number of transient parkers per day.
Based upon this analysis, an average stay of 2-1/2 hours or 63a was found,
and there were approximately 2,500 transient cars using the ramp daily (see
page 16 )• This was then compared to the useage in FY 1984 and found to be
similar to our 3 sample months. The chart on the next page shows both past
revenue, as well as the projections. The totals for FY 1984 were extrapo-
lated for the year end (May and June). The revenue figures for FY 1982 and
FY 1983 are actual, and to this was applied the ticket average found in our
FY 1984 sample to arrive at units per year. A 305 da operation was then
amP P Y Y P
assumed to arrive at the units per day. The turnover was computed by using
all 900 spaces in the ramp. In reality, the actual turnover is higher,
because not all the spaces were used in the structure, but to simplify the
analysis all 900 spaces were used.
As mentioned above, the analysis of the three sample months in FY 1984 show-
ed approximately 2,500 transient cars were using the ramp daily. By apply-
ing the formula of ticket averages divided into the total transient revenue,
the units per year are arrived at. By dividing that by 305 days, the units
per day are found. The calculated units per day for FY 1984, 2,568 is
almost equal to our actual units per day from the sample (2,500). This
Justified the methodology for the analysis and the remainder of the projec-
tions are a function of increasing the turnover in spaces which as an end
result, increases the overall units per year. The revenue projections
reflect a consistent average stay (2-1/2 hours), but an increase in turnover
for the projected years FY 1985 through FY 1995. The increase in turnover
is from 3.1 car spaces per day leveling off at 3.5 car spaces per day. in FY
1989. Rate Schedule A reflects a slower rate increase than rate Schedule 8
but in both cases the same units per year were used. It is the opinion of
the consultant that the increase in turnover and units in each of the pro-
jected years reflect a conservative approach. It has been assumed that
Downtown Iowa City would continue to be the regional shopping center for the
area and because the old Capitol Center is not completely leased it was felt
ithat there is room for growth in the number of cars using the Capitol Street
-5-
/sL9
Ramp. The modifications being made to the traffic flow in the garage should
enhance the use of the facility. To date there have been complaints about
the long waits in the ramp caused by congestive points in the structure.
The opening of both the Clinton and the Capitol Street entrances will
increase the use of the structure.
DUBUQUE STREET RAMP
The revenue projections for the Dubuque Street Ramp were done in a similar
fashion to that of the Capitol Street Ramp i.e. three month sampling of FY
1984 tickets was completed. The average stay turned out to be approximately
3 hours or a ticket average of 744. The analysis showed roughly 550 tran-
sient cars per day using the ramp. As was done in the Capitol Street analy-
sis, the transient revenue was divided by the ticket average to obtain units
per year and that was divided by 305 days to arrive at units per day (see
pages 18 and 19 )• Turnover was based on the 270 transient car spaces
available out of a total of 450 car spaces in the structure. For the
projections the turnover has been increased and in FY 1986 included the
addition of the Hotel generated demand that would not be validated. As of
this report, the Hotel will only be validating hotel guests parking. All
other users such as resturant and lounge patrons will pay for parking (see
page 17 ). The additional hotel generated demand is reflected in the
increases in units. The projections reflect the expansion of the Dubuque
Ramp of 180 spaces. Of these 180 spaces, 80 have been allocated for
transient use. The remaining 100 spaces will be used for the Hotel and are
not reflected in any of the projections except the Hotel rent (see Hotel
rent section below). Currently there are 180 monthly spaces allocated for
permit parking in the Dubuque Ramp. While there is a waiting list for
monthly spaces in the Dubuque Ramp, the City has opted not to sell any more
monthly spaces but to keep the remainder for transient use. While the need
for employee parking in the downtown is recognized, the City's decision to
limit their permit parking is prudent. Both rate schedules A and B for the
monthly parking at the Dubuque Ramp reflect what is felt to be conservative
estimates. For the monthly charges, because there is a limited supply and a
large demand for these spaces it would take larger increases in rates than
shown to reach a rate sensitive situation where the City would be losing
parkers.
The Hotel rent, as shown in the projection is based upon the minimum agreed
upon amount that is outlined in the contract between the City and the Hotel
Developer. Basically this contract required the developer to pay for 100
spaces at the prevailing monthly rate and that all of the tickets will be
audited and the excess hours or fraction thereof that are used above and
beyond the 100 spaces (based on total hours for the year) will be charged at
the prevailing hourly rate. To be conservative the projections have only
accounted for the minimum Hotel commitment. It is possible, depending on
the validation program the Hotel undertakes, that the revenue would be
higher than shown. It is important to note that all non -validated Hotel
parking is already reflected in the transient revenue projections.
OFF-STREET PARKING
The off street parking in Iowa City consists of metered lots that have both
transient and permit parking. The methodology used for the revenue projec-
tions is as follows (see page 20)• For the off street meters the revenue for
each of the lots for FY 1983 and FY 1984 was analyzed. The total yearly
revenue for each lot was divided by the hourly charge to arrive at the
number of hours parked per year in each of these lots. This did not include
permit revenue from the lots that accepted them, so there was no overlapping
in the analysis. It is also important to note that in the analysis of the
meters in these lots, there are both 20¢ per hour and 10(: per hour meters.
This situation has not changed for the projections and the appropriate rate
increases have been applied. Also, it is important to note that from FY
1985 onwards, the Library Lot has been removed from the projections.
However, to stay within the bond covenant the proceeds from the sale of this
lot will be invested and the approximate annual yield from this will
approximate the yearly revenue coming from this lot when it was being used
for parking by the City. As of this report however, the sale of the Library
Lot is not expected to occur until FY 1986. This fact has been reflected in
the FY 1985 revenue projection.
The permits on the off street lots were a little more difficult to quantify
and basically an assumption was made that there are approximately 246 lot
permits outstanding. Most of these permits are divided among the public
(110 spaces) and City Employees (127 spaces). The City Employees currently
pay approximately 1/2 of the going public rate for these spaces. For FY
1985, the revenue projection reflect 110 Public permits at the projected
rate ($20.00 per month) and 127 City Employee permits at $10.00 per month.
i
ON -STREET AND FINES
The number of on street meters has not changed appreciably in the past few
years. The basic methodology used for arriving at the revenue projections
is as follows. For the on street meters a direct percent increases based
upon the percentage increase in charges was used. It is our recommendation
that the entire on street meter situation be investigated to look at the
following;
1. Changes in the rate schedule for the meters, depending on the loca-
tion in the downtown.
2. Placement of short stay, high turnover meters with a premium charge
in areas where promotion of high turnover is necessary.
3. Make the charges high enough for the on street meters to promote and
encourage the use of off street parking.
Based upon this investigation it is probable that the actual revenue that
could be projected for the on street meters will be higher than what is
shown in this report because a very conservative approach has been taken
The last change in the meters occurred in 1979 when some Central Business
District meters were increased from 10¢ to 20t.
In recent years there has been an up and down situation in the number of
parking tickets issued. Of all the meter violation tickets written, about
67% (FY 1984) pay the fine (about 62,400 paid tickets). The assumption has
been made that the number of tickets issued and paid for would remain at
approximately 55,500 for the years in the projections. This is lower than
FY 1984 number. but a more conservative approach was chosen to estimate the
fine revenue. The fines, however have been projected to increase from $2.00
td $3.00 in FY 1985 and from $3.00 to $4.00 in FY 1991. The fines were last
increased in 1976, when the $1.00 ticket went to $2.00. The revenue
projections are shown on page 21•
Estimates have been made for the cost to change over the present meters.
There are two options Available;
1. Replace all the meter heads and mechanisms.
2. Replace meter heads and mechanisms where necessary, but replace or
modify mechanisms where possible.
m
The first option was chosen for analysis. There are approximately 1200
meters on the street and on off street lots. The cost to replace each meter
with an iron coin compartment, and high security locks would run about
$180.00 per meter, not including installaton or trade-in for the existing
meter heads. Installation has been estimated about $60.00 per head, but
this cost would be significantly cut if City crews did the work. It has
been estimated that it would take until about January or February of 1985 to
replace the heads.
It is important to note that the on -street revenue projections for FY 1985
reflect 6 months of revenue generated at the existing rate and 6 months at
the new rate.
DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE PROJECTIONS
The following chart brings together revenue projections for the individual
parking categories in the City and carbines the interest income from reserve
funds to arrive at total gross revenue before operating expenses and debt
service (see page 23). The projected operating expenses were based on the
historical operating record of the Citybut only includes direct operating
expenses and not capital improvements or mandatory deposits into reserve
funds other than principal and interest accounts. The City is required to
deposit at a minimum $5,000.00 per month in an Improvement Fund. The
operating expenses projected for FY 1985 takes into account the added cost
that will be incurred when the Dubuque Street Ramp is expanded(see page 29�
as well as increased operations due to the Hotel parking demand. For
instance, the Dubuque Street Ramp may be open on Sundays to capture revenue
that would otherwise be lost.

/ISO
Interest income was computed using the various reserve funds and the operat-
ing fund and applying the following interest rates; 11.5 percent per annum
on long term investments (such as the Reserve Fund) and 10.5 percent per
annum on short term investments (such as the operating fund). It is
recommended that any repairs, renewal and replacement of plant or equipment
that are not part of ordinary operations be paid for from the Improvement
Fund, since there is no limit on the amount of money that is allowed to
accumulate in this fund. Payments made from the operating funds decreases
the net revenue available for debt service, thus increasing the debt service
coverage.
i'
The next column on the chart is net revenue before debt service (principal
and interest) payments. Net revenue is the total revenue from operations
and interest income minus operating expenses. The debt service shown in the
projections includes the actual debt service payments from the obligation on
I;
the Capital Street and Dubuque Street Parking Ramps and a projection of debt
service for the expansion of the Dubuque Street Ramp.
h.
L In order for the City to issue additional bonds for improvements, additions,
extensions or new facilities that will be combined in the parking system,
certain tests of debt service coverage must be met.
I. Net revenues, or adjusted net revenues for the preceding fiscal year
must be equal to at least 150 percent of the maximum principal and
interest requirements on the existing and proposed bonds.
2. Net revenues, or adjusted net revenues for the preceding fiscal year
must be equal to at least 100 percent of the maximum years debt ser-
vice on the existing bonds and on the proposed bonds. In addition,
the estimated net revenue during the second full fiscal year of
operation of the addition or expansion shall be equal to 150 percent
of the maximum year's debt service.
-10-
The term adjusted net revenue refers to the process of applying any rate
increase to prior year's operations, to estimate what the revenue "would
have been" with the rate increase. On the Debt Service Coverage Projection
Chart (page 23) for FY 1985 through FY 1995 Rate Schedule (A), the debt
service coverage (net revenue before debt service payments divided by that
year's debt service obligation) is shown. Using the maximum debt service
and the revenue for that year (1995) on the existing and projected bonds (20
years, 10.5% with debt service reserve) the coverage on the bonds is 157
percent. Using the maximum debt service obligation on the preceding years
will generate at least 150 percent of debt service.
Finally, an adjusted net revenue was computed for FY 1984. With the propos-
ed rate change, the gross revenue for FY 1984 was projected to have been
$1,400,450. The net revenue before debt service is then $780,450 (gross
revenue - $620,000 estimated operating expense). Using the maximum years
debt service in the calculations (FY 1995 $648,200) a debt service coverage
of 120 percent is obtained.
Based upon this analysis, it appears financially feasible to construct the
I'.
addition to the Dubuque Street Ramp. From the revenue and expense projec-
tions, the debt service coverages meet the requirements of the original Bond
Resolution on issuance of Parity Bonds as outlined in this text. However,
there is also justification for the expansion of the Dubuque Street Ramp
from the demand standpoint, and this should not be overlooked.

FINANCING
Various scenarios have been made for the financing of the addition to the
i Dubuque Street Ramp, and these are shown on the following pages. All the
scenarios have assumed a construction cost of $1,109,000 for the addition
to the Dubuque Street Ramp. The first set of computations assume funding
at 10%, 10.5%, 11%, 11.5% and 12% for 20 years with a debt service
reserve. The second is funding with a bond anticipation note was used.
The rate used was 8%, and no debt service reserve was required.
The following assumptions were made on the financing costs:
Interest During Construction - Interest only payments for 6 months, the
term of construction.
Interest Income - The entire bond or note amount is given to the
borrower up front, and this money is invested to get
interest income. The total interest income was
figured by using 40% of the principal amount at 10.5%
for 6 months.
Bond Counsel and Expenses - This number comes from experience.
Points/Discount - This is paid to the underwriter or lender and was
figured at 2% of the bond amount.

OPERATING EXPENSES
DUBUQUE STREET RAMP
i•
The following is a breakdown of additional costs associated with the operation of
the Dubuque Street Ramp, with the added 180 spaces and hours of operation. The
extra costs that would be increased are basically in labor and utilities. It is
recommended that the Dubuque Street Ramp remain open on the weekend to capture
lost revenue. Therefore, the assumption has been made that there will be 24 hour
operation at the Dubuque Ramp 7 days a week.

Page Change
1 1. Change Department of Community Development to Department of
Planning and Program Development to reflect departmental title
change.
1 2. Add word "line" when referencing a right-of-way in legal descrip-
tion.
3 Add "and/" to objective 0 so it will now read: "To encourage the
restoration and rehabilitation of structures within downtown Iowa
City which are of architectural and/or historic significance."
4 Delete the explanatory paragraph under Central Business Zone and
replace with language contained in the present Zoning Ordinance for
this zone.
5 Deletion of explanatory paragraph under Central Business Service Zone
and replace with language contained in the present Zoning Ordinance.
7 1) Delete ";" from the objective which states "Provide sites for
either one or two new or expanded department stores to serve the
primary retail generators." This correction is typographical.
7 2) Addition of the phrase "...between Washington and College
Streets" in second objective listed on page 7 which will now
read: "Provide for the restricting of Dubuque Street from
Washington Street to the alley between College and Burlington
Streets in order to facilitate pedestrian foot circulation, to
allow for emergency vehicles between Washington and College
Streets, and to allow the crossing by delivery vehicles at the
alley between Washington and College Streets."
7 3) Addition of the word "an" to the public pedestrian link objec-
tive. This is a typographical correction.
7 4) Change the floor area ratio to bring it in compliance with the
Zoning Ordinance. This objective will now read "Provide for up
to 100% block coverage of all private development parcels, and a
floor area ratio of up to ten times the development area."
Delete: "Floor area ratios may be granted for the inclusion of
plazas, open space, street arcades, internal arcades, canopies,
passenger loading and consolidated freight loading facilities."
because such provision does not exist in the Zoning Ordinance.
7 5) Deletion of the following objective because it was not enacted:
"Provide for the restricting of Capitol Street from Washington
Street to Burlington Street (consistent with the objectives for
Area 1) in order to facilitate pedestrian circulation and to
provide access to contiguous development."
8 1) Addition of the words "which will be" to the hotel -conference
center objective so it will read: "Allow for a hotel -conference
center designed to meet the demands for transient housing in
/570
2
Pace Change
downtown Iowa City which will be readily accessible to commercial
and office activity, the University of Iowa campus, and the
medical complex."
8 2) Deletion of the following objective because it was not enacted:
"Provide for the restricting of Capitol Street from Washington
Street to Burlington Street (consistent with the objectives for
Area 2) in order to facilitate pedestrian circulation, and to
provide access to contiguous development."
8 3) Deletion of the words "and Capitol" so the objective will read:
"Provide for an internal pedestrian circulation network to be
constructed largely on the closed right-of-way to College
Street." The Capitol Street right-of-way was not closed and is
used for motorized circulation.
8 4) Deletion of the following objective: "Provide for the restrict-
ing of Washington Street from Madison Street to Capitol STreet to
be designed with emphasis on transit and pedestrian traffic, but
allowing limited automobile traffic." This restriction was never
enacted.
9 1) Change the floor area ratio to bring the objective into compli-
ance with the present Zoning Ordinance. This objective will now
read: "Provide for up to 100% lot coverage of all parcels of
less than 15,000 square feet; and up to 80% lot coverage on all
parcels larger than 15,000 square feet; and a floor area ratio of
up to two times the development area."
9 2) Deletion of the provision which reads: "Floor area ratio
premiums may be allowed for inclusion of private, open space,
street arcades, canopies, passenger loading, and freight loading
facilities." because such provision does not exist in the Zoning
Ordinance.
10 Deletion of quotation marks as a typographical correction for
objective five.
11 Correction of the citation in the first paragraph on page 11 so it
now reads Paragraph D -1(a).

ordinance as existing laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations which
{ affect the urban renewal area.
14 Placement at end of sentence of phrase "where needed" in the first
paragraph in Site Improvements for clarity.

To: Doug Boothroy
From: Lyle Seydel
Re: 403A.28 Code of Iowa - Public Hearing Requirement for Public Housing
403A.28, Municipal Housing Law, Code of Iowa, is quoted for your information.
403A.28 PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED. The municipal housing agency shall not
undertake any low cost housing project until such time as a public
hearing has been called, at which time the agency shall advise the public
of the name of the proposed project, its location, the number of living
units proposed and their approximate cost. Notice of the public hearing
on the proposed project shall be published at least once in a newspaper
of general circulation within the municipality, at least 15 days prior to
the date set for the hearing.
A copy of the official publication is attached hereto. The code states that
the public will be advised of name, location, number of units and their
approximate cost at the public hearing. Therefore, both the official notice
and the staff comment on the Council agenda indicated this information would
be discussed at the public hearing. That data was provided by memo dated
July 10, copy attached. There is no name, locations are unknown, but all are
aware that,the units must be within the City limits of Iowa City and would be
scattered throughout the City, the application was for ten units of three or
more bedrooms and the approximate cost was indicated to be $572,000.
The normal requirements will be followed during the acquisition of these
properties, i.e. assuming we get approval from HUD ten units would be
selected or negotiated and at that time at a public meeting the City's desire
to purchase those will be made public. I know of no other requirement for
any additional public hearings.
