Comment: In 1976, the State Legislature passed Iowa Code 8327G.32 which basically prohibited trains from blocking ,any railroad crossing in the State for over 10 minutes. Iowa City, since April of 1972, has had Iowa City - Ordinance #2621 which prohibits 'a standing train from blocking railroad crossings in the City for over five minutes. Pursuant to the authority granted by the; State statute, the Department of Transportation scheduled a hearing ,for October 27, 1977, to determine whether the safety or conveniencerequires that the Iowa City ordinance remain in effect and ;that the State statute not be instated.- She D.O.T. has authority under the statute, to hold the Iowa City Ordinance void for any or all of the railroad crossings :in Iowa 'City. The Legal Department, pursuant to the authorization granted to it by the City Council on October 24, 1977,',negotiated a settlement with the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad Company (Rock Island) and the Cedar Rapids and IowaCityRailway Company (CRANDIC) concerning the. blockage of railroad crossings in Iowa 'City. The agreement reached with the two railroad lines was that the Rock Island and the'CRANDIC would withdraw their complaints to all of the 20 crossings within Iowa City if, the sIowa City ordinance wasiamended to allow the State's 10 minute r of the railroad crossings located limitation to be 'controlling on r fou e g within the City: Clinton -Des Moines Streets, Dubuque -Des Moines Streets, Kirkwood -Gilbert Court, and Burlington Street. This was the proposal for settlement that the, Legal 'Department'presented to the Council, at its October' 24, 1977, meeting and which the Council accepted.
