(2) Consider setting a public hearing on September 11 to
amend Chapter 17 (Housing) to include requirements for
maintenance of striping/marking of parking spaces
within parking areas.
Conment: This ordinance was prepared at the Council's
request. The proposed amendment adds to Chapter 17 a
requirement for the maintaining of striping/marking of
parking spaces within parking areas as required by the
Zoning Ordinance. The Housing -Commission,•.-at their
meeting of August 14, 1984, did not recommend in favor
of the proposed ordinance. This decision was based
upon the Comnission's concerns about how the ordinance
would be enforced. Issues discussed involved the
interpretation of "maintaining striping/marking of
parking spaces, costs of enforcement to both the City
and the property owner (striping of parking areas was
not required until 9-27-83), etc. In addition, the
Commission could not find a relationship between
requiring the striping of parking areas and the purpose
and intent of the Housing Code. In light of these and
other concerns, the Commission recommended that the
issue of striping of parking be referred to the
Planning and Zoning Commission for further clarifica-
tion and study. Minutes of the Housing Commission
meeting of August 14, 1984, at which this matter was
discussed are attached to this agenda, Item 4.b.(6).
A memorandum from the legal staff regarding this matter
also is attached.

there is no reason to believe that there will not be a
satisfactory resolution.

ITEM NO. 21 CONSIDER AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTIONS 25-60(c), 25-61, AND
25-64(c) OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF IOWA CITY,
IOWA. (first consideration)
Comment: As the majority of the members of the Senior Center
Commission are alder, it has become apparent that between
extended vacation and illness, it is very difficult to achieve a
quorum. When quorum is achieved (4) the number seems small to
make important decisions for the whole Commission. Furthermore,
often three of the four present were not at the last meeting so
only one member has a sense of continuity in the decision-making
process. It is believed that two additional members on the
Commission will increase our chances of having a higher percent-
age of members present and knowledgeable.
The second change is to correct an apparent oversight which
authorizes minutes to be sent to the Director of Parks and
Recreation and makes no mention of the Johnson County Board of
Supervisors. As the County provides 20 percent of the opera-
tional budget for the Senior Center and the Director of Parks
and Recreation like all directors receives our minutes in their
copy of the Council packet, we have deleted the Director and
added the County. The Rules Committee approved the proposed
changes on July 17, 1984.
