The'subject plat is located in the south Ralston Creek water shed. The Engineering'Staff?has indicated that this proposed development will have ;I little impact upon the water runoff problems in the area. :Nevertheless, the',propos'ed subdivision will add more water to a'problem area and agitate the situation. :Until passage of a'storm water ordinance, therelwould appear to be few.alternatives other than to allow typical subdivision -improvements without storm water management. ! This would, however, be a'- good opportunity to employ storm water management since one developer is in;control of -a large drainage area. i I „ r 'I r 3 rr J I i I iI I tz i r I . i Ic Ir r'J I I,J L r I L Jv.

DATE: March 7.2, I977 TO: Neal Berlin, City Manager FROM: Eugene Dietz, City Engineer U RE: 'Court Hill - Scott Boulevard Part 5 Subdivision Mr. Bruce Glasgow has made a, request that you bring up the subject of the Scott Boulevard Subdivision during City Manager comments at tonights Council meeting. This Memo is wri tten to bring you ,up to date on the reasons why this subdivision was deferred until this time.', The: sanitary sewer capacity was ,the primary reason for delaying the;subdivision. This subdivision is intended, to hook into, the Friendship, Street 'sewer,_which we have computed has a, possible capacity of: 0.5 cu. ft. ;per second, The initial concern was 01.1 that an agreement be 'drawn ,to insure that once, that capacity: was reached, the subdivider would construct a new ';sewer connecting to the, southeast intercepter located near the intersection of Ralston Creek and ;Scott Boulevard, Recent exp a nence',has found that such agreements--are extremely complex to write and that they tend to lose' their: meaning, afterseveral years, 4 'therefore, P'ublic'lVorks feels thatjthe 'best course of action would be to allow, construction;ll tojproceed`,up to the capacity remaining !in the Friendship Street sewer' an'd'at that =-point `the developer would h;Ive to provide the new sewer or cease development. j We. have computed that the proposed subdivision' would generate approximately 0.11'cu. ft. pe' r'second'of sanitary sewage. This `is well, within the. limits: the ,possible O.S cu. ft per second I available. Attached is a'letter that I sent MMS 'Consultants' ( g' I g ) ich states the criteria that we might l.1.1r;" GI ow s T'n incer 'tioh expect the proposed sewers to be built to. It also states that building permits would be obtainable on an individual basis as :the,,exact "capacity' of the Friendship Street sewer is. determined. Also attached is al; copy of'the lminutes `of the meeting of the Board of Directors of Plum Grove Acres._ In those minutes, the development corporation agrees;: that this would be a proper course of action. The only other question that remains is provision forstorm water management'. The Resolution 'attached 'also (provides a`method to c'rcate necessary ,storage 'areas. The actual location of the storage, fac.i.lities':wiII not be :in the subdivision; but rather, on the east side ofScbtt Bouluvard. This has been done in previous 'SUbdivisions siiice the 0rdinaiicc wns vii:ictcd: CEJ r � ;i ?A 9 :'.. � _� 3., When reviewing construction drawings for the int erm cicr, the criteria to approve the plan shall be: a: That the sewer is planned for a future direct route to the trunk line; b. That it be sized to handle the drainage area to be served, not just the initial development; and c. That although a subdivision platisapproved, building permits will be issued based entirely on capacity of the, existing sewer. A written response, from you as the Developer's Agent indicating agreement to this letter will allow us to forward the information to the Commission: and Council, and get the',proposed subdivision back into review/approval process.' If you can accept this position,' it also will be necessary for Council' ;to'.rescind'Resolution Number 73-17.Cwhi ch called for -a tapping fee -for generating funds' o relieve the Friendship Street > sewer.

On Saturday,.,February'1, 2,600 'rc7` items were 'checked'.out, aniaverage of288 items hour for all day;lon'g. On Saturday, February 19 at 2:15 there were 147 peo�5le in the building. All seats were :full and people' were sitting in the';aisles'and on `.the floor. •The line'to'check-out was so long that 'no one could approach the Information Desk to seek assistance. The parking lot was also full. Materials are returned equally Y rfast,,and it takes the paging staff all week to catch up with "re '-shelving before the 'weekend surge begins again. Building 9 Equipment f ' The public address P equipment of the new telephone system was in- t+' stalled in February. It saves time both for those doing the pap,- ing; and those responding to it. 3. L. -2- The heating system seems to have stabilized and is heating the building ''as consistently and evenly as possible given its short- comings. Knowledge of how the system really operates is one of our'shortcomings'and I have recommended to the Manager that a licensed boiler operator shared by the three main city, buildings and doing regular maintenance of the systems could: possibly save the l;,city ,much in 'repair: bills plus provide more efficient heat- ind cooling operations. i I ; i.

PUBLIC WORKS CONFERENCE ROOM , { 4 s Approved -III " 'Predine Branson f' I IIM �ilFi i �1�. r Position Statement Iowa City Housing Commission March: 18, 1977 , , During the past, three years, the Iowa City Housing Commission has spent considerable time,,;both of Members of the Commission and of City Staff, collecting, analyzing . and discussingmaterials relating to tenant -landlord ordinances, including both model" dinances and. specific ones in use in a very limited way in other cities. The Commission has, from time to time,' made specific recommendations to the Council T n 1 I ' in thisyregard. 1 i { Ix t The Council currently has before it a Housing Occupancy and Maintenance Code, Fry whichlt}ie�Commission has spent considerable time drafting with the assists nee of City, Staff: and many: others in the community. The Commission endorses this 11H , ardinance wholeheartedly, and believes its adoption is in the best interests of �. ,r. « the community: at large, and of both landlords and tenants, specifically. ",The Housing Commission can not ascribe similar qualities to a tenant -landlord ordinance which has been proposed by Tenants United for Action, and others.;,The I „ !Commission has reviewed.this,proposal in'some detail. However, the Commission m docs not, feel it was:,a Commission responsibility to make detailed recommendations I. . f „r'miJ changes when the proposal had been filed with: the City for the stated purpose -, of inclusion on the November election ballot. r E Position Statement, Iowa City Housing Commission, Page 2 Individual Members of the Commission have attended meetings held by the Tenants United for Action group, and have discussed the ordinance proposal with members of that group, and others.' Members of the Commission have continued this active discussion to the current time, and intend to continue to do so I in the future. ' and so'far"as we. can determine, no other Iowa community, nor the State of Iowa, currently has such an ordinance under consideration. This presents 'the liklihood r ' f close'_Court scrutiny. IFor this reason alone, a short public discussion period 7r witfiout^advise from legal: counsel on the detailed provisions of an ordinance of 1= this nature seems patently unwise. -. 1 I i + r " Amongmajor ncla Toga] ground the proposed tenant -landlord ordinance seems to I1 encompass includes: L JA t + t 11 1110 confiscation lit private property without due process, as in , ;1.

Numerous other, to items in the proposed ordinance appear objectionable to the Commission, but it intent here to attempt to write an acceptable ordinance. it,,.is;not.the;Commission's ' and so'far"as we. can determine, no other Iowa community, nor the State of Iowa, currently has such an ordinance under consideration.

The elimination of an individual's right to spend his own funds, as in Section 4.104 which provides that a tenant may expend rent funds rather than payment of them to the landlord. 3. The, dictation byI the!City of all contractual agreements between tenants and landlords, as in Section 1.404 which effectively eliminates all latitude of tenants or landlords to negotiate any r provisions of their own leases. However, regardless of the legal difficulties which may exist with this proposed ordinance, it raises many more questions of fairness and common sense. Lack of I .?,balance:}is perhaps bestdemonstrated by. Section 6!101.1, which establishes an appeals board made up of seven members,'of which four must be tenants and !,at ?'least one. of the ,remaining three members must be la landlord. Further, the ordinance (Section 1.404c) provides that a tenant may sublet his unit without J 'involvement bylthe landlord, and that the numberlof children in a household may not be'used by:a landlord as a determining factor in whether he rents to a Yparticular, family (Section 2;16sa). The ordinance also provides, generally, that t'i,tenants collect two or three times actual damages from any landlord, while r' and lords are limited to the extend of 'actual damages from'any tenant. I I i The Commission does not feel that provisions such as these reflect fairness or Al; common sense. I ±J .,'It is theCommission's position, held very strongly, that the overall impact of 'an -ordinance of this nature on the community, its present housing stock,.and the future development of additional housing, needs very, careful analysis.,. s I. ..

Design 1. The City, on November. 23, 3976, entered into a contract with the Johnson County,Realty Company for the sale of 'land on which to construct the new Iowa State Bank and Trust Drive-in facility. 'Section'8 of the contract binds the purchaser to construct a drive-in facility on the property, the plans and specifications for which must be approved by the City, prior to commencement of construction. The City staff and the Design Review Committee have reviewed the preliminary design for„the drive-in facility. 2. The approval process is being carried out in two distinct steps. Step one includes,a review by the staff and the Design Review Committee of the r: preliminary 'design of the facility. The City Council will then be asked to approve, bj:=tion the design of the,, drive-in facility. Following, Council approval of the basic design, the owners and''builder will be required to ` submit detailed constructionplans and other plans for':normal'review `and, approval bythe ,building department. 3. The results of the review of the preliminary design are set forth below: i a. ;The Design Review Committee reviewed the designs,on March 30, 1977. Following the review of the design, the Design Review Committee voted unanimously to approve the project. b. Because;of concernexpressed at the time the contract was entered into, specific inquiry was made regarding the magnitude of the cost for the construction of, the facility. _ The total budget for land and:improvements ..` is $609,000. Land price was $195,222. The amount budgeted for improvements is approximately $414,000. c. The current Zoning Ordinance requires one parking space per 500 square + feet of; building floor area. The floor area is approximately 2,500,square feet. Accordingly, 5 parking spaces would'be'required by the Zoning Ordinance. The, preliminary plan 'shows 26 parking spaces provided. ,However, the preliminary, plan' does not show parking which complies with the tree ordinance. However,' because a, complete' review of final plans by the "building department will be required, compliance with the tree ordinance will be necessary prior to the, issuance' of a building permit. I d., ,The City Traffic Engineer; has reviewed the plan. From a traffic engineering standpoint,, the traffic engineer has some reservations. The entrance to the drive-in 'facility 'is located within 14 feet of the property's north F boundary,. placing' it adjacent to the proposed entry point for the Perpetual'' Savings', and Loan parking and drive-in facility. Both 'entry points are City, Manager and City Council April 11 1977, Page'=2 located within approximately 150 feet of the Burlington Street -Clinton Street intersection. This placement has the potential of causing problems ` in the 'future. When the' site plan was reviewed previously, provision was made for an alternate entry point at: the south side of the lot thus extending the waiting area, for automobiles desiring.to use the drive-up windows. . 'Because 'of the.berms, and plantings, shown on the current site plan such „ an alternate method of extending waiting area is precluded. The current plan as shown will accommodate approximately 18 cars waiting to'approach the drive-in.windows, prior, to backing traffic onto Clinton Street. While it appears that this is adequate at the present time, if drive-in bank usage increases in future, years, a,potentiak problem may arise..` l 1 I i L 11 i J1, s , r I' rb .

(2) The proposed fee for those who bring animals to, the shelter should not be considered. ,Those people who do bring.in unwanted animals should not be discouraged from doing so. i This is certainly, a giant step ""ahead of those who "dump" animals along the roadways. By charging a fee, you wi1l-,lie.encouraging such "dumping". And what about those of us who find these ;;abandoned animals? Are: we to be,charged'a fee for bringing them, in or are we .supposed to walk away and leave them to starve or die from exposure? Some 'of 1sr us cannot do that. Speaking as; one who lives in the country, I can speak from 4 be about the "dumping" of animals'. We have adopted six animals that 1 1 were abandoned. In addition to these six, in the course of six years, we have found ;one box of four, puppies, six other dogs, one white rabbit, and numerous cats. Fortunately, we'were able ao find"good homes for all of them. I would only bring i an animal to the shelter as a last resort, for I am well aware the adoption statis- ,,' tics•are not good. I would not, however appreciate being charged'a fee for doing what I'felt wasibbet for the animal. 11 would like to propose another solution to the problem, if, indeed, our desire is.controllin the 'animal population. _ I ro osejthat the Iowa City Veter- inarians,. who do benefit from the pet population, run a'clinic for ,neutcring'and , ritt spaying only for, one`day,or,afternoon aweek, charge only for whatevcs medication is used or even',a nominal fee per animal', and allow the owner to take the pet home for reeuperation. When families have to' balance ,$30.00 - $hO .00 per animal for neutering or spaying against buying a weekts groceries,,I am sure you know which !`one wins. The veterinarians would certainly contributinpa great service to their community by.helping control an escalating problem. Other communities have initiated such clines and they seem to work. It is possible the veterinarians S would not need to serveiat the clinic more than once every six weeks, and by charg- ing a, nominal fee, they; could possibly break-even financially since they would be 'treating animals they,. otherwisewould not 'see. ' I am concerned that the proixssals set forth by Ms. Horton and Russo may,'Lurn the mmjmal.'sheltor into an animal disposal station, put the "froel' animal business r� I into full -swing thus setting the stage for turning our local roadways into animal dumping grounds: I do not believe anyone, wants to encourage this type of animal abandonm6nt. I urre the Iowa City Council to consider and encourage the help of :our local veterinarians in solving, this r,roblem. Sincerely, .Mar len Hill R.

'Included 'in his remarks were statements that 97 inquiries: have been'received and that three houses are presently under construction. A written progress 'report was handed. out. The remainder of the meeting was spent discussing the questions raised at the March, 4meeting_with the :Lenders and getting their opinion of the, loan program, The following' items 'were ',discussed, questioned the 'Earriy 'loan retirement � incentives: The lenders had previously .questi .......... that some incentive 15 year term-of,�the loan. It was suggested at this meeting e - be;p given to encourage the a plicants;to pay back the loan sooner.. Incentives: discussed: n service charge (probably $2 or $3) is only.due when payments are outstanding., A mortgagor will save the $24. to $36 per year if the loan:is M-5retired early. Foradditional incentive, a rebate wassuggested. Forlexample,if. the loan , �'Vl :.1would be.paid in,five years rather than fifteen, possibly 10% of the original principal, could be. forgiven. The staff,reviewed this proposaliand has tabled : i it forifurther review if needed. Because the clients will belsaving monthly� service charges and residency terms' in! Iowa City are often shorter than 15 years,.the staff1does not view this as a problem. At this time the staff wls'hes'�to keep thte'administrative procedures simple (and not commit staff time', S or 10 years from now). 2 irst mortgagee notification f , f* o loan application: The lendershad requested that they, be notified When a loan application was taken and when a decision, was made. ,Staff agreed with this request. Rehabilitation Meeting with Lending Institutions March24,'1977 Page :March, 3. Delinquent loan procedures: This topic generated a lot of discussion, in - 221i following comments; a. The Housing Rehabilitation staff, as part of their research, had spoken to a;collection agency. However, it was felt that hiring an attorney to , collect late ;payments was preferable to a collection agency: A collection agency retains half ofthe outstanding 'loan 'as their fee - an expensive service. We don't forsee the rneed for very many foreclosures and case b Y case handling will be'more 'satisfactor i Y ti. It was inquired whether City attorneys or contracted private attorneys would be used for delinquent loan collection. When the situation`' arises, staff, workloads will be reviewed; but at: this time, we'd expect to contract; a local attorney familiar with real estate and foreclosure to handle special problem cases. c To encourage clients to not let their monthly payments become delinquent, a $2 fee 'will be: collected for each payment delinquent by more "than one month:, A percentage charge was,disallowed-for fear that a courtwould find t usurious." Th' e Consumer Credit Code of Iowa prevents us from collecting funds to cover legal ,fees incurred by the City in loan recovery.; The alternative is to charge a, flat fee to disco uragedel ,payment and toiabsorb any additional loan servicing costs: The specific details of delinquent payment charges will be agreed upon at the loan closing. 4 Participant ability to repay: A lender inquired about individual participant's' ability to repay a loan and the procedures were restated.: Two tests will be used: 'first the federal formula used for the IRID 312 -loan program =- $2 per day per family member must; be available for 'a living allowance after fixed monthly expenses, and. housing costs are paid; the second review will belby the Rehabilitation Review board -who wi11 review each application before the, Than is' '.allowed.(membership is stated below). There was a little concern that the first test did not 'allow enough money for satisfactorily meeting day to day, living expenses, but the staff reminded the inquirer of the test's rsource and also'reminded him that the Rehab Review Board :would review each application. 5. Rehabilitation Review Board 'Membership: The Rehabilitation Financing Iinndbook (Chapter 1, page.2) membership shall be stated to include at least the 'Depart- ment head, `Finance Specialist and Rehab Supervisor. ;',Other members such as a local an and a member of the legal staff may be added. ;The lenders seemed interested,in participating, at least initially. i, r' ' I with Lending Institutions 0 6. Land contract purchasers' program eligibility: It is the position of the City staff that =land ^contract purchasers would not be eligible for the 'REHAB ,I loan. One of,the `lenders brought to the staff's attention the fact that a lien could be -taken on -.the property per se and recorded at the County Courthouse. To foreclose, t,owever,l the City would -have to pay off the contract -and obtain title to.the property.! The lender felt that the City would have to gain title to 'the property regardless of whether it was a conventional mortgage or a land contract. The; staff had reservations about buying out a contract and becoming title holder,to the property. 7. !Maximum loan limitation criteria:The third criteria 'listed 'in'the Rehabilita- tion Financing Handbook (Chapter 7, page 6) was again reviewed. The 30 minimum 'equity in the loan property was questioned aslbeing,sufficient. The inquirer was reminded that the formula' was derived for the federal HUD 1312 loan program where, through'several;years use, it has`beendetermined adequate.' 8. .Controlling property use after rehabilitation: There is the possibility that sometime during; the 15 years of loan repayment that property owners may choose to move to'another'location ''and lease the rehabilitated property. This is something that the staff cannot control administratively, although each family a and each property will only be, eligible once for program participation, so ' individuals will not be able to hop from house to house doing home improvements. 9: City property disposition after foreclosure: 'A question was asked: If the City foreclosed on a property, would the City rent outithe property thus becoming a:landlord7`The,general feeling on this question was that the economics pre- vailing at the time ofiforeclosure would dictate the 'action to be taken, by the n. city.,• ,- 10. Asset Guidelines for the REHAB I loan: 7777777 a.' Theiliquid asset-guidelines'as presented at the March 4th meeting were considered to be too high for individuals' who earned the maximum incomes for their family sizer The staff developed a sliding income/asset scale which the lenders thought was a more equitable way lto'determine-income and assets. The lenders were concerned that the allowed assets go no lower than 50% of the maximum "asset figure. They felt that SO'.. of the allowed assets was a good minimum even when a family had the maximum income level. ' The staff had increased the allowed maximum income for the elderly to ,. $20,000 for one; person and $25,000 for''2+ people. The lenders generally, agreed with this change. Their only suggestion 'was to raise the 'asset maximum for elderly applicants. The chart in the'final'draft of: Chapter 7 will reflect final changes. i, it I' Rehabilitation:Meeting with Lending Institutions March'. 24,'1977 Page s,`. r I' I a The lenders offered good advice and thoughtful questions. Besides the financial aspects of the program, they were also 'concerned with the humanitarian aspects as shown "when one lender suggested,' that the ;elderly 'and handicapped be categorized separately, because the handicapped person might have a family to raise and need to ix have more assets than an elderly' person. The Housing Rehabilitation program staff, ` appreciated their input.' N t Submitted, by Maureen Taylor ?: f f 4 `IR 1 1 f� 1 6 { y i LSM,.

Miller, Police Chief1� RE: A Treatise Examining the Hypothesis and Null Hypothesis of Time In Grade as a Requirement for Promotion to the { Rank of Deputy Chief„ Iowa City, Iowa 'Police Department Thank you for bringing the one year requirement of time in,grade as a Police Captain ,prior to possible promotion to Deputy Chief to my attention. The position descrip- tion prepared some years ago ,by Griffenhagen-Kroeger specified the,'minimum time in grade, in my opinion, not to limitthe, promotion'' to as few prospectivelapplicants as possible, but quite probably instituted the require- ment because of a commonly held assumption (and perhaps ` a'valid 'one) that eachl'promotional step in police r departments, as well as':other'formallstructured organ - 5 izations,' should be predicated' upon the learning and experiences garnered from one or more subordinate steps. The Iowa City Police Department appears to me to be a i, very traditional organization'in purpose and.istructure. The rank'st ructureis based upon ;a modified militaryy r -model. :The ranking structure,' except Jfor :added"numbers of personnel in',each rank, has remained unchanged for Ty, a'great number of years. The, expected norm is to advance to,!a higher rank, if the opportunity presents itself, only after a; specified amount'of time'in.grade at the rank next subordinate to the!sought'after position.' II While Ilhave challenged; sometimes successfully, the 4. very traditional pattern of structure ;and operation very the Department as I perceived 'them upon becoming Chief, I -am unwilling to face the storm of protest and possible legal challengethat would quite likely arise if the time in grade-tradition'is set aside in this case. I ;� sincerely! believe it is important to `'focus upon the' structure,;role, and purpose of the Department as a I mechanism to meet the requirements of ublic safety in the community;, than to engage in Departmental 'in -fighting and possible civil litigation at this time. Personally, I would rather test and select- those officers r, K,,, for promotion from the best ;qualified ;'candidates _regard- �I less of rank or`status within the organization. However, I 1 I sl I I 'R rank in 'question is to offer strong support to the challenge that would inevitably arise --opening all promotional possibilities to all applicants regardless of subordinate ranking in the organization. Obviously while,, there are many worthwhile and reasonable, arguments that 'can be raised in support of open promotions I' respectfully suggest that the long term costs of such a''decision that',would.abraid old wounds in the Department and create the;''potential for civil litigation are more than I am, and -I trust the Civil Service Commission'is willing to pay at this point in time. Perhaps this dissertation does not precisely, document specificreasons for not 'abandoning ;time in, grade for ,promotions However, it,does address my personal and perhaps. selfish, feeling:: that this is not the time to ;j warm up ;.the potential for Departmental trouble and the usual public strife that seems to accompany internal dissension in,the Iowa'City;Police;Department. If I can',offer anything,lmore on this issue, ,please : advise me. I.would be most happy, to comply. I I � I �I F: rt f I I?, 0 City of lovas City MEMORANDUM i DATE: Novcamber 9, 1976 I I' i TO: Candy Morgan, Human Relations Dir. FROM: Tony Kushnir, Asst. City Attorney RE: Assistant Fire Chief and Civil Service I: FACTS I Presently there is no position entitled Assistant Police Chief in the City of!IIowa City, Iowa. 'I;Consideration is being given • I in establishing such a position. ISSUES PRFSENTID Whether an assistant chief of police is exempt,frem the Civil Service provisions,Chapter 400 of the'Code`oflIowa. CONCLUSIONS a The assistant chief of police is subject to theprovision of (" Chapter 400:of the' Code of Iowa. DISCUSSION II Section '400.6 of the Code of Iowa, 1975 sets forth the applica7 bility of the provisions of Chapter 400 to the various officers and errployees'of state and local, governments. In general it applies the provisions of Chapter 400 to all officers or enployees except those specifically listed. I The statute on its face is clear and unambiguous, unless a job i title is listed as, exempted from the provisions of the Chapter, it shall be subject to civil service. If there was room for any statutory. r construction it seems', that the maxim "expresaio unius'est exclusio alterius" wouldlapply., Under this maxim, if a statute specifies one exception to;a general: rule other exceptions or effects are excluded. :I This maxim was adopted by the Iowa Supreme Courtin North Iaia Steel Co.:v. Staley,' 112; N.W. 2d 364'(1961)'i.n dealing witli Te statutory construction: of statutes. This principle was illustrated in the case of Dennis v. Bennett et al., 140 N.W.2d 123 (1966) wherein the Iowa ;e Suprmle Court;he d at the position of fire chief is subject to the ; provisions of Chapterl,400 as it is not:listed as an exemption. Chapter 400.6 does exempt assistant police chiefs but only in departrnents numberin mire than: 250 menbers. By this reference it does not exenpt assistant police chiefs from the provisions of Chapter i 1 I i I I I' i • -2- • 400 where departrmnts are smaller.. Consequently it is my opinion that if such a position is established, it is subject to Civil Service rights and obligations: It is also worth noting that Chapter 400 has language as to how to interpret the provisions therein. ,Chapter 400.30 states that the provisions of the Chapter are to be strictly carried out by each person or body having powers or; duties thereunder. This language deems to state that the provisions are to be interpreted strictly and narrowly and not permit broad'intespreta- tions or variations of the Chapter. Such variations may be interpreted as being, inconsistent with. the provisions of Chapter 400 and thus invalid.

REOMOIDATIONS TO THE STAFF AND CITY MANAGER None. j 'PENDING ITEMS None. SUMMARY OF RELEVANT DISCUSSI(N y On November 15, 19761the Commission established the following criteria on'which;certification for-pranotion would-be based. Oral Interview Written` Examination ZO% Experience, education, job performance; 10% Written personality testing 10% Physical/Medical Examination 10% (Given'at time of appointment) Failure of one or.more of the above areas of examination may eliminate a candidate from further consideration. i On Noverrber 30 1976 the written examination andpersonalitytests were administered. The exams were given in Roan 'D" of the City ,�: Recreation Center, No cut off for the written examination was established. However, there ,were scores below an acceptance level.

Candidates who had questions concerning thci Ixs:vauclity test were referred to Jake Sines, the psychologist who graded than. On rebruary 22, 1977 oral interviews for Captain were held. As a result of the interviews, written examinations, Ix:rsonality test, experience; education and jots performance, no candidate was viewed as qualified for prrxmtiorrto'Captain at this time. On February 22, 25 and March 1,'1977 oral interviews for Sergeant were held.

'. I ;r' One wording that you might wish to consider Is: "Any internment Monday through Friday which requires staff services after 4:30 shall be charged the Saturday rates. The usual practice shall be for commital services to be cond uded so that a grave can be filled by 4:30." It is my understanding that the Administration is not prepared to make changes to you in the schedule of fees and charges. This is unfortunate, since the information, on which they based their recommendation is wrong. The philosophy hiloso h of the. Administration is that the city should charge rates . p comparable to that of the private cemetaries. I do not agree with this philosophya by its nature the city, should provide an alternative. The dignified way of caring for the dead, city should provide an economic and not only in respect to the person,', but for the purposes of'health. The recommendation of the Administration''has been raised to many cases significantly, since their earlier draft of September, 1976. The admin'.stratlon was of the opinion, based on their source of informa- tion -that the lots in St. Josephjwere $200 and $300 and that there were only.,a,fe�� $200 Lots left. In reality, there are only'a few $300 lots left, right in frcnt of the chapel, All of their lots are $200. With the e. ception noted, ''there is not a more desirable lot in St. Joseph's. (At Memory, Gar 'dens, the lots cost $250 and $300.) At St. JOSS?h, the cost of lnterrment is $100. The recommendation is 'that at Oaklawn-it be raised from $60 to $125. Let me suggest that if the fee:schedule is Increased that you consider:, adultinterrment for $100, on Saturday, $120 and that the ' price of lots, which are now basically $90 and $110, be increased to no more than $180 and $200. 41 Let me pointout to you that the budget which you adopted does not reflect any increased income. In fact the budget you adopted provides for or at least allows Ceincome in from the sale of property and from interrmentsIn:1976 youhadincmefom the sale of property of $6,260.' Your. budget is,based om,anticipated receipts of,$4,500. The amount received from interrments'in 1976. was $2,'885; your budget is based on anticipated' receipts of $2,500, An additional item of Information. The budget. which you adopted, does not reflect income from the "perpetual care" fund. By Iowa Code 566.15, the interest from r+ this fund can `only be used for the cemetary operation. Let me also suggest that this' fund bei invested in a manner to produce maximum income which is not the case based on the information that I have at this time. In brief, the budget which you adopted, does not require you to raise the cemetary ' rtes"and there should be available for cemetary,operatlons the interest from the Fa` perpetual care fund of $79,675. ` HAYEK, HAYEK & HAYEK WILL J.

PETER HAYEK IOWA CITY, IOWA 52240 April 1, 1977 JR4 The Honorable Mayor and 1977 City Council of Iowa City ABBIE STOLFUS Civic Center CITY CLERK Iowa City, Iowa 52240 :,. Re: Court Hill —Scott Boulevard Addition Part Five n Mayor and Council Members: k , At your last meeting you requested a report from me concerning the legality of using some type of contractual arrangement between: the ,,. City of Iowa City and the developer of the proposed subdivision to solve „ .,the sewer -.capacity,, problems that exist there, " The proposed zoning changes requested by the developer in connection=with this subdivision will have the effect, as I' understand it, ' 'over of permitting approximately 40 to 50 additional dwelling units to be built and: above th' l umber that would be permitted if the property, were developed in accordance with the present zoning. There is concern on the part$f members of the Council that the sewer system may become r, overtaxed as a result of development of land in the area. One suggestion to deal with the sewer capacity problem that has x been advanced is to use an agreement between the developer, and the City to the effect that once the sewer capacity is reached no further development would take place. Although such an agreement! appears p attractive I believe that there are problems with its use, An agreement of the sort proposed may not be enforceable. As you know thecourts in several states,laveyoided contractslor agree- i' ments that vary the terms of the zoning ordinance as illegal "contract zoning" . The Iowa Supreme Court has not handed down a definitive ruling on contract zoning: Thus it would be impossible to predict ` T exactly,what the Iowa Court ,would 'do if asubsequent owner of the land" challenged; the agreement'on this basis. I believe that at the present '�... + time the chances' are about 50=50 as to whether or not the Iowa courts' would uphold `such°an agreement. 'Compare State ex rel. Zupancic v. -' Schimenz, 174 N.

City Manager Neal Berlin advised that concerning the 'petition from 'objectors, `it was -determined that anl.extra-ordinary majoritylof Council will not be required as'they were not abutting property'owners.'.He stated that Glasgow should be given an,answer. It was'suggested that a provision be put in the, agreement for the subdivision that the q in development would not have an :access to Scott Boulevard. It will brought be up on April 5th meeting. + Westwinds,= Bruce Orr asked that Council move up consideration of their, subdivision one week.

There is a supplemental agreement for them to construct the improvements a over the alley: p Wendram Bluff - It, was pointed out the the Planning and Zoning Commission was asking the'Council to establish city,pol,icy for subdivisions outside the City regarding;sewer,water and ,streets. Waivers had: been; required for the'.Lime Kilm'and ,Oak Ridge subdivisions final plats, and will also -for this subdivision. Concerning use of septic tanks for sewage, it was noted the the County 00ard of Health says that this private ,sewer will function properly. The City'staff still had some concerns.

MODEL TRAFFIC ORDINANCE Public Works Director Plastino explained the compromise reached on the parkingdowntown concerning` double parking. If someone double parks, they will, have to still leave 10' free between their vehicle and the centerline. There, will be a new: draft of the section on Impoundment.

Oral '.question , the Commission and one staff member(. The University of North Carolina „ test used 'placed emphasis on technical areas of police work'and knowledge of administrative management and supervisory principles. Previous national tests used were derived from work in New 'York, Chicago and Los Angeles, and not appropriate for situations encountered by alsmall town fff force. 'The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory test was used in I testing sergeants and captains. Dr. Sines evaluates and scores the tests, and does not know ,the name of the individual being tested. Nusser discussed the proposed guidelines from the Iowa City Police + Patrolmen's Associations': Ill Posting notice of public meeting--this'is done all 'the'time and no meeting' has ever been closed. (2) The rules of Commission are posted. f.(3) Maximum of two 6 -year terms for Commissioners-- ',, He!agreed,`but appointments are the Council's job. - (4) Function and history of Commission --Information is in the State Code, but copies are not handed to every employee. Minutes of ,all meetings are available and information is available in the,Municipal,Directory. , (5) Legal opinions soughtifrom City'Attorney--They'do this all the time. - (6) A guide l., showing' requirements for qualification for promotion --He explained that requirements change, in the last exam, in the upper levels of promotion, 'yF they were concerned with the ability of applicants to become administrators. Job descriptionsjare available for each position. It' was; suggested that as conditions change, qualifications ought to be known. j r (8) No member ofPolice Management present at oral interview for promotion -- s,„ Nusser stated that it was not possible to operate without a person from Police Management available. The, Commission does not look through the applicants' records: It was suggested that maybe they should.' There used to be two interviews, one by the Chief and one by the.Commission. ,1 • Inal Discussion Ap 4, 1977 Page 4 The notes were compared. Later the interviews were combined as one. A person 1 is needed who can answer questions about police work that the Commission', as citizens, cannot answer. The kinds of data in the files do not help in the Commission's decisions. They rely on the officers to tell them about ',special qualifications and additional training. (9) Reason for, person not being certified given to individual in writing-- , Each person is told his score and told how he related to the MMPI, and that if he'had 'any questions concerning his exam or his numbers, he could go See Professor Sines. The Mayor' commented that the applicants want to';try ,again and iwant to know where they failed. (10) ICPPA meet with Commission regularly,-he was agreeable, but to include all police officers. Councilman Vevera commented that some police officers can function well in the field and with the public,' but: are not as articulate at an interview. Anderson noted Commission's concern over where their work ends, and suggested 'meeting 'rwith the Patrolmen's Association to work on this. i? Vevera stated the basic problem was that the men really do not understand the process'. A new law is that the Director of the Human.Relations Commission is an ex-officio '' member 'of'the Commission. The Commission does not hold regular: meetings, and are not listed in the Civic Calendar published by the League of Women.Voters, but can be. The legal depart- ment will write a memo on the legal, procedure for notice and motion for adjournment to executive session when needed.' Councilman Vevera noted hisi concern that Sergeants are in charge of their shift. for approximately 1/3 of the year, but are 'Inot :qualified to be ,Captains: Chief,Miller discussed procedure for an 'on call' Captain". He noted that the qualifications for promotion are very high in Iowa r' City, that our Sergeants would probably qualify for Captain in many departments over the State. Approximately $6,000 of public money is spent for training, matched, by Federal funds.' Councilman Selzer stated •7• I' that there has to be'a dialogue between: Commissioners and 'police or fire personnel,', when upgrading',, departments, to tell the personnel where they are not meeting the standards. (Standards that are dictated by the • Department 'at that time.),'- Nusser advised that Council',had abolished the " Assistant Chief position and: never;, recreated it, except by a line item ' . in<the,budget. He questioned if Council could legislate a civil service '. position by;this,procedure. REHAB`LDAN PROGRAM Consultant Mike Kucharzak and Program Coordinator Julie Vann were present for discussion.

He explained f' theichart which has been adjusted.I The`$50 appraisal 'cost will be ,�'' advanced toithe applicant and recaptured at the closing. The. loan cannot be assigned. The, payment in debt service will be handled by a contract, with a local lending institution, for a'fee of $3 a'-month per case.

City will st sh w 9 > He recommended that the borrower should pay the monthly service charge. Councilmen Selzer and Vevera agreed; Foster thought the charge would be excessive: { The Staff will be putting together ,three more chapters dealing with Loan Settlement,' Loan Closeout and Management and will present a contract` form for local'' lending' institutions to act as service agent. They recommend a,Loan Review Board, consisting of the Supervisor of the Rehab. Program, the Department Head, and a representative of the legal department to review the recommendations of the Staff.
