CITY CLERK Received & Approval By Tha Layai Depm4mont .69 WAN 141CROFILMED BY -�- 10RM:--MICRdLEiO� CEDAR RAPIDS •DES MOIRES I !� f STAFF REPORT To: Planning & Zoning Commission Prepared by: Karin Franklin . Item: A-8204 and Z-8204. Date: July 15, 1982 West Side Company GENERAL INFORMATION: Applicant: Earl M. Yoder & West Side Co. P.O. Box 2000 Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Requested Action: Annexation of 70 acres and rezoning from County Commercial and Residential to C2. Purpose: To develop a commercial use within the corporate boundaries. Location: South of the Iowa City corporate limits and north of Highway 1 in j Johnson County near Willow Creek. Size: 70 acres. ANALYSIS: West Side Company has requested the annexation and zoning to C2 of approximately 70 acres south of and contiguous to Iowa City, just east of the Ty'n Cae Part 3 development. The north 40 acres of this area (Tract I) is currently zoned residential in the County, and the south 30 acres (Tract II) is zoned Highway Commercial in the County. The petitioner has requested that if the zoning classification requested is denied, the voluntary annexation request be withdrawn. The applicant has been informed that, with adoption of the new zoning ordinance, the annexation request area may be rezoned to a combination of zones, including CI -1, CH -1 and a residential zone. The intensive commercial zone and the highway commercial zone incorporate many of the permitted uses allowed in a C2 zone under the current ordinance. The 1978 Comprehensive Plan indicates that this area should develop during Phase IV at a residential use of 8-16 dwelling units per acre and as land consumptive commercial. The entire area is contained within the limits of urban development line. The Southwest Area Study updating the Plan, which was preliminarily endorsed by the Commission and the City Council, suggests a number of changes in the Plan for the area in question. Annexation of the entire area is recommended with most of the property being zoned for a commercial use. The proposed changes are based on. the rational that with the construction of the Highway 1/Freeway 518 interchange and the realignment of Mormon Trek Boulevard, residential development in a large part of this area is not advisable. Lack of capacity in area schools and proximity to the airport are further deterrents to residential uses. The availability of sewer and the access afforded by Mormon Trek and 518 create a favorable situation, however, for commercial development A small area of residential use abutting the Ty'n Cae development is also i MICROFIL14ED BY 11" JORM---MICR6LA13-. CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOINES I I I I 2 suggested, with a buffer of open space between the residential use and the commercial use. This buffer is necessary to ensure that existing residential development is not adversely affected by intensive commercial development. The actual nature of the buffer may be discussed at such time as actual development proposals are submitted. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommends that the requested annexation and rezoning be approved since it is consistent with the recommendations of the update of the Comprehensive Plan. Recommendation for approval of the C2 zoning at this time should carry with it the understanding that with adoption of the new zoning ordinance the specific commercial zone designations will change and provision may be made for a buffer between residential and commercial uses. Since the update to the Plan has not been through the public hearing process or formally approved, an amendment to the 1978 Comprehensive Plan will be necessary. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Location map. 2.

Box 2000 Iowa City, Iowa 52244 Re: West Side Company, Earl Yoder et al., Annexation Dear Jim: The preliminary plans with graded contours for development of the West Side Company's property near Willow Creek have been reviewed. The buffering which we discussed for the northwest corner does not appear to be a problem if this area serves as a stormwater management basin, taking advantage of the natural contours of the land. In addition, the area of Ty'n Cae Part 3, which abuts this northwest corner, provides stormwater management for Ty'n Cae and is, therefore, open space. We definitely would like to see that corner used for the basin for West Side's development.' As far as the western boundary which abuts Ty'n Cae Part 3 is concerned, most of the buildings sited on the Ty'n Cae development are set back west from the 'property .line a sufficient distance to obviate any conflicts. However, three lots north of Mormon Trek relocated (the second through fourth lots) and west of the proposed road abut lots in Ty'n Cae whose buildings are sited between 30 and 60 feet from the property line. Some screening may be necessary along the west lot lines in the West Side development. There is also, potentially, a 20 foot drop in elevation between the west side and Ty'n Cae property along these lots. When grading the area, special attention should be given to sloping the west side lots toward the road so that runoff will pass down the road to a basin in the northwest corner and not run down to the Ty'n Cae lots. The final comment pertains to the zoning. C2 or a commercial intensive zone for the major portion of the area sounds fine.' However, since this property abuts residential land and Mormon Trek relocated will be a convenient access to the residential area, CH along Mormon Trek would be more desirable than a more intensive commercial zone, and may finally be more saleable.• A restaurant, grocery/drugstore, or gas station would all be acceptable uses in keeping with the residential traffic which will be generated along here. The more intensive commercial uses would then be on the ��,f �V' i MICROFILMED BY l.-' , -JO RIVI-"MIC R�IL AB-- CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOINES Ifi lidr _ 1 _1 f Jim Houghton September 3, 1982 Page 2 i "interior" larger lots. It is quite possible that annexation at C2 for the entire area could take place; the distinction between highway commercial and intensive commercial uses would occur when the entire city was evaluated for rezoning under the new zoning ordinance. The deferral of this item before Planning and Zoning is effective until January, -1983. However, we would like to bring this before the Commission again as soon as most of the issues are resolved.

CEDAR RAPIDS •DES MOIRES .657q., -I i i 2 Physical characteristics: The topography is relatively flat. ANALYSIS The applicant is requesting approval of the preliminary and final Large Scale Non -Residential Development (LSNRD) plan for a 3.15 acre tract located south of Highway I and north of the Iowa City Airport. The plan proposes two buildings containing a total of 14,970 square feet of commercial floor area and 37 apartments, 30 of which are on the second floor. A total of 107 parking spaces are required and 132 parking spaces are being provided, with 20 spaces located in garages. The applicant has chosen to design the parking area in accordance with the proposed new design standards ordinance which is currently before City Council for review. Specifically, standard vehicle spaces are dimensioned at 19 feet in length, and 24 compact spaces (5% of the total) are being provided measuring 15 feet by 8 feet. In addition, 22 foot aisles are provided throughout the parking area. While staff does not have any problems with the proposed design of the parkinestablishing etheit will design stands standards parking for ncil areasobe ore theyrove he the resolution approving this LSNRD plan. Y pass the Another concern for this development is that it comply with the requirements of the Airport Overlay Zone, since the request area is located in the "Approach Overlay" (OA) Zone." Specifically, the height of the two proposed buildings, and any trees proposed should not penetrate the approach surface in the OA Zone. The Engineering Division has verified that the proposed buildings are within the height limitations; however, a mature height must be established for the "large" trees proposed on the planting plan in order to determine that the plan complies. Also, in accordance with Section 8.10.50.4.b of the Zoning Ordinance, "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 it is not misleading or dangerous to aircraft operating from the airport or in the vicinity thereof." STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the preliminary and final LSNRD plan be deferred. Upon resolution of the deficiencies and discrepancies described below, staff would recommend approval. DEFICIENCIES AND DISCREPANCIES A. Preliminary plan: 1. A breakdown of compact vehicle spaces by percentage of the total parking provided should be shown. B. Final plan: I. A breakdown of compact vehicle spaces should be provided by percentage of the total. 2. A note should be provided regarding compliance with the lighting requirements contained in the Airport Overlay Zone. 5—cq� 1 i I, r 141CROFILMED BY I"-JORM_--MICROCAB- - CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOINES I / ATTACHMENTS I.

This method has been used for over 25 years in Iowa City and, over the years, it has had judicial support. Until 1975, the statutory limit of 300 feet from the street was established as a maximum distance for assessment values. That limit was abated and there no longer is a statutory limit. Iowa City has continued to use the 300 foot limit, even though the project assessment boundary limits could be established beyond 300 feet. The procedure for figuring pavement assessments is as follows: the area of the property closest to the street receives the greatest weight and lower amounts are assessed as the distance from the property to the street improvement increases. This uses a distance of 300 feet or half -way to the next street for its assessment limit. Increments of 50 foot zones are used to decrease point value of the assessed property as the distance from the property to the street improvement increases. In other words, the closest 50 feet is designated as the 60 point zone, the next 50 feet as the 30 point zone, then the 10 point zone, then the 5, 3 and 1 point zones, until a distance of 300 feet is included. The area of the property contained in these zones is then multiplied by the point values assigned. The points for each property are then totaled. After all the points for each property are calculated, they are totaled to give the total points for that street. Then the total points are divided into the total cost to be assessed in order to determine the cost per point. This cost per point is then multiplied by the number of points for each individual property to determine its assessment. See example on the following page. bj2/10 5-60 ori S MICROFILMED BY i f �- - JORM-MIC R(CAB- CEDAR RAPIDS DES'MOINES � r1 I Example: 190' deep by 65' wide lot. 65' i I i 40' ' 65' x 40' x 5 = 13,000 65' x 50' x 10 = 32,500 50' 65' x 50' x 30 = 97,500 50' !

I am writing to object to the city attempting to bill me for the cost of replacing the existing sidewalk on my prop- erty along Kimball Rd. This does not seem fair, considering that the city has replaced and built new sidewalks in other parts of town in the past, at no cost to the property owners. Furthermore, the present dam- aged condition of sidewalks on my property is due mainly to the cityls vehicles. In the summer of 1979, the city was searching for a water leak in the neighborhood and tore up Lloyce Tauber's (neighbor) property to find it. Pipes were replaced, the leak persisted, and the water main across the street (Kimball Rd.) was finally dug up and repaired. During all this excavation the city Is heavy trucks continually "drove -on..arid. parked, on,the sidewalks in question. In the summer of 1981, the Iowa -Illinois Gas and Electric Company was putting in a new gas main along Kimball Rd. Company employees were careful to leave one lane of traffic,open. If their equipment tempor- arily was used in the open lane, they were quick to move it out of the lane when traffic wanted through. However, the city bus was frequently impatient, refusing to wait even a few seconds, and used the sidewalk for part of the roadway. Gas company employees noted that the bus would drive on to the sidewalk at the Lloyce Tauber residence (624 Kimball Rd.) and continue on the sidewalk until the intersection of Kimball Rd. and Kimball Ave. This occurred several times and gas company employees be- came concerned that they would be blamed for the sidewalk damage the buses were causing. The city was contacted and informed of the problem. A city representative came and viewed the damaged sidewalk, along with a gas company inspector. The gas company replaced three sections of the most badly damaged sidewalk near the corner even though the damage had been caused by the buses and the gas company was under no obligation to repair it. I talked to gas company employees (including the foreman in charge that summer), on 22 March 1983, and they re -verified the incid- ents. If you have questions about the damage caused by the buses please contact the Iowa -Illinois Gas and Electric Company. In closing, I will mention that I will be assessed $2435.00 for new replacement sidewalk. I am 76 yrs. old, living on a fixed rocial security income, and this assessment will cause me undue financial dii:_culty. The sidewalk, although damaged, is not hazardous to pedestrian traffic. If the city insists on replacing this sidewalk, I believe they should pay the costs as city vehicles were instrumental in damaging it.

Tauber and Helen Tauber, the owners of property proposed to be assessed under the Kimball Road Special Sidewalk Assessment Project - 1983. My clients object to the assessment proposed against their property on the following grounds: 1.. The proposed assessments are unreasonable, arbitrary and capricious and work a disproportionate cost in view of the value of the property; 2. The proposed assessments are not reasonably related to the benefits which inure to the property; 3. The assessment against my clients discriminates against them in that other sidewalk, similiarly deteriorated has been repaired and replaced at city rather than property owner expense; 4. No rational basis exists for installing sidewalk on only one side of Kimball Road; 5. The proposed project is an improper and irregular use of assessment procedures. 6.

My specific objections follow: 1) There is a minimal amount of pedestrian traffic along Kimball Road. The major traffic is in mornings and afternoons, when some students use this route to go to or from Shimek Elementary School. The presently existing sidewalk in front of my house is wide enough and in good enough repair to accommodate these students and to pose no safety hazards for these students. 2) Some parts of the sidewalk between Kimball Avenue and Whiting Avenue are in need of repair; other parts are not. The sidewalk in front of my house does not seem to be in need of repair. Why, then, must it be repaired? Does the City Council propose to rip out a perfectly good sidewalk and replace it with another, which will presumably be of no better quality and will benefit nobody? 3) If repairs must be made, why will the property owners not be permitted to make their own repairs or engage their own contractors to make the repairs to the city's specifications? People can repair the cracks in their own sidewalks for a tiny fraction of the money the city proposes to spend on such repairs. 4) The "Notice to Property Owners" which my neighbors and I have received includes such evaluative words as "benefited" and "improvements." I submit that to replace a sidewalk that is perfectly functional with a new sidewalk that is not needed is not an improvement. A new sidewalk will not benefit me orlmy neighbors to any noticeable degree. The assessment for a new sidewalk will be an assessment with no purpose. 5) If this new sidewalk were to be.oL benefit to anybody but the people who will earn money to put it in, the benefit would surely extend to the entire neighborhood, and not just to the property owners on the east side of Kimball Road..--,.Thetefore, why not put 3 special assessment on the entire neighborhood? Why not tax the people on the west side of Kimball Road;: who surely must -get about as much use out of the sidewalk as the people on the east side? j i MICROFILMED BY f _ - JOTiM�`MICR�GLAB` CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOINES ,6 � 02, -I T r-� 6) The west side of Kimball Avenue does not now have a sidewalk. If the City Council feels that it has an obligation to widen or to provide sidewalks in remote suburban locations where there is no pedestrian demand for sidewalks, surely it would be more of an improvement and a benefit to the community to install a sidewalk on the west side of Kimball Road than to replace the existic.g one on the east side of the road. 7) Given the good shape of the present sidewalk in front of my j house, I am amazed at the size of the assessment I am told I will have - to pay. I had assumed that the assessment would be somewhere in the neighborhood of a hundred dollars. Instead, I am told it will be i $1291.58. I do not have this money. If I am subjected to an assessment of this magnitude, I do not know where I will be able to get the money - - to pay it. Most likely I will have to sell my house and move out of the neighborhood. ' 8) If we are to have special assessments, why not make them for ; things that will be a definite benefit to the community? Give us a special assessment for schools, or police, or for the library. I would welcome a special assessment to improve the schools! But to improve a sidewalk that is not in need of improvement? Why? Why? 9) I do not have the money. How do you expect to get such sums out of people? And for what? i Yours truly, 1 3ti.._,. Thomas N. R.

The application stated the reason for requesting Industrial Revenue Bonds as "The 30% savings by using IRB's will allow me to make the move the Old Capitol Center and still provide a high quality bookstore facility for the Iowa City area... will permit the applicant to construct a more spacious and aesthetically pleasing store." Staff review did prompt a request for additional information about the project. I have attached a copy of my letter which requested that additional information and a copy of the written response as it does provide substantial detail on the project. The Written response to question #4, C, mentions the likelihood of the installation of an escalator in Old Capitol Center near the Washington Street entrance to the Center. We agree that an escalator would be an enhancement to the Center and encourage Council to pursue this with Mr. Peter Vanderhoef of Iowa Book and Supply as a condition for the issuance of the bonds. The project will not be reviewed by the Design Review Committee as it does not include the renovation of the outside of building. tp4/9 u J'•7A i March 18, 1983 Attorney Robert N. Downer 122 S. Linn St. Iowa City, IA 52240 Dear Bob: Staff has begun review on the Industrial Revenue Bond application submitted by Iowa Book & Supply and needs additional information on the following items in order to continue with that review. 1. Will the decrease in square footage at the new location, as compared with the square footage at the current location, cause a reduction in any product lines for the store? The financial statements and financial projections show a decrease in both sales and cost of goods sold for FY84 as compared to FY82; please explain why that decrease will occur. 2. In line with the above item, if there is a decrease in product i lines, will it cause any reduction in the level of staffing? The application states ."no substantial change"; however, we need to know what kind of change is expected. 3. Is the lease with the old Capitol Center finalized yet? How definite is the decision to relocate; for example, if Dey Building Corporation offered a lower lease rate, would the relocation be reconsidered? 4. On pages 2 and 3, the Industrial Revenue Bond Policy lists the criteria upon which the City will grant approval for the issuance of Industrial Revenue Bonds. Briefly stated, they are: a. Preservation of existing or creation of new employment. b. The extent to which the tax base will be increased. C. Enhancement and strengthening of the downtown. d. Upgrading or improvement of deteriorating structures. e.

Re: City of Iowa City, Iowa Industrial Development Revenue Bonds, Series 1983 (Iowa Book & Supply Company Project) i Dear Rosemary: j Thank you for your letter of March 18, 1983. This response to that letter has been compiled jointly by Pete Vanderhoef and myself. As you know, I will be out of town all of next week. However, if you have any questions with respect to this matter during my absence please feel free to contact Pete directly. Also, Ben and Dick Summerwill and John Koza at the Iowa State Bank are all very knowledgeable with respect to this application, and.you' may feel free to contact any of them if you need information which they might be able to furnish to you. Our specific responses to the items raised in your letter of March 18 are as follows: 1. The decrease in square footage at the Proposed new location will not cause a reduction in the product line for the store. Because of the considerably more efficient layout of the space, which is all on one level, may potentially cause an expansion of the product lines available through the store. One reason for the greater efficiency of the proposed new location is that the existing facility occupied by Iowa Book & Supply Company was expanded nine different times between 1950 and 1970. Although significant remodeling occurred throughout this period in an attempt to integrate all of this space into one operation, some portions have been added I t I, MICROFILMED BY –DORM-"MICRbC"A9- CEDAR RANDS OES Id01;4CS �---- - -- - -- — _ I -- — Ms. Rosemary Vitosh March 18, 1983 Page 2 V f since the most recent and significant major remodeling, and therefore the layout is perhaps not as efficient as might be the case had all of this space been acquired and improved simultaneously. This problem will not occur in connection with the space in Old Capitol Center. Mr. Vanderhoef has attempted to be conservative in his financial projection, taking neither a "best case" nor "worst case" approach. As we are all aware, the University of Iowa predicts further enrollment increases for the immediate future but a decline within a few years, primarily because of the shrinking number of high school graduates. It is also Mr. Vanderhoef's feeling, as well as that of many other knowledgeable persons, that an economic recovery will cause more prospective university students to enter the job market rather than to enter or remain in college. All of these factors have been taken into account in the making of these projections. 2. As was indicated above, no decrease in product line will occur. Further, it is contemplated that, in line with other stores in Old Capitol Center, this store would stay open a greater number of hours, thereby resulting in some increases in hours worked by present personnel or, perhaps, an increase in staffing level. There is certainly no decrease anticipated, but we are not in a position at this time to commit that the number of employees will be decreased. 3. The Lease in Old Capitol Center is not finalized yet, although the area proposed to be occupied is covered by a "right of first refusal" to Iowa Book & Supply Company through April 30, 1983. Based upon conversation with management of Old Capitol Center, it is our belief that this time period could be extended if necessary. As I indicated to you on the telephone, it is our anticipation at this time that the business will relocate. However, because the Lease has not been finalized, and because we are not aware of any Lease Agreement made by the Dey Building Corporation with any other party, it is possible that a new lease between Iowa Book & Supply Company and the Dey Building Corporation could be negotiated. 4. It is our position that the request by Iowa Book & Supply Company meet several of the criteria set forth in the City's Industrial Revenue Bond Policy, including the following: (a) As you know, Iowa Book & Supply Company depends upon its close proximity to the University of Iowa as well as upon a substantial amount of retail space in which to conduct its business activities. To our knowledge,'there are no other locations within J — I. j MICROFIL14ED BY � -JORM- MICROLAB- CEDAR RAPIDS OES 140IYE5 I /� I - --fir I i Ms. Rosemary Vitosh March 18, 1983 Page 3 a number of blocks of the campus which could accomodate Iowa Book & Supply except for the facilities presently occupied and those being offered in Old Capitol Center. As you have no doubt seen from the financial statements, this business operates on a high volume, low margin basis. In the event that a satisfactory rental could not be negotiated, the prudent course of action would appear to be to liquidate the business rather than to pay rent at levels which would vertually assure substantial financial losses. The approval of the Industrial Revenue Bond request will result in the preservation of existing employment of a substantial number of persons. Hopefully, some new jobs will also be created. (b) Because of the substantial improvements which would be placed in the proposed business location in Old Capitol Center, it would be my assumption that the valuation of the Center would be increased accordingly, thereby increasing the tax base. Many of the improvements which Iowa Book & Supply Company has placed in its present location over the years would remain, and it would not appear to me that the valuation of that location should decrease. Therefore, it would appear that the tax base of the central business district should increase to the approximate extent of the improvements proposed to be placed in Old Capitol Center. (c) The space which will be occupied by Iowa Book & Supply Company in Old Capitol Center represents a large block of presently "dead" space in the Center. The presence of such a strong retail business on the second level of the Center will no doubt stimulate retail activity of those businesses located in proximity to it. Further, it would appear that the occupancy of this area would enhance the overall attractiveness of Old Capitol Center. There would appear to be a strong likelihood that, if Iowa Book & Supply Company relocates to Old Capitol Center, an escalator to the second floor would be installed near the Washington Street entrance to the Center. This would, in our opinion be a substantial enhancement and strengthening of the Center and, as a j result, the entire downtown area. (d) While Old Capitol Center could not be considered a "deteriorating structure", the area proposed to be occupied by Iowa Book & Supply Company could not at this time be considered attractive or an enhancement to the Center. This unattractive area of the Center would therefore be removed. 5. As I mentioned to you over the telephone, I have discussed Mr. Vanderhoef's status as a member of the Board of 57� i i 14]CROFILI•IED 61' l 1 -.l I ""J ORM-MIC RE/L�A B" CEDAR RAPIDS DCS l40IYE5 ` I Ms. Rosemary Vitosh March 18, 1983 Page 4 Adjustment both with Mr. Jansen and with Mr. Vanderhoef.

City of Iowa Cit! - MEMORANDUM Date: March 24, 1983 To: City Council and City Manager From: Rosemary Vitosh, Director of Finance Joe Fowler, Parking Superintendents Re: Revisions to Late-night Parking Rates in the Ramps In order to maximize revenue in the parking ramps and to institute one alternative for dealing with the vandalism in the ramps, we are recommending that the rate structure be changed such that the 25 cents per hour rate is charged until 3:00 a.m. We currently charge the hourly rate until 10:00 p.m. After 10:00 p.m. we charge a flat fee of 50 cents to exit. We currently have our night maintenance workers working at or near the exit gates after 10:00 p.m. to deter people from driving through the gates without paying. Having cashiers working until 3:00 a.m. would free up the maintenance workers to tend to ramp maintenance. As a by-product, this would put those maintenance workers in other areas of the ramps and should act to deter some vandalism that occurs at those late hours. Further recommendations for dealing with the vandalism problems will be finalized and submitted to you in one week for your review. On weeknights, approximately 170 vehicles exit after 10:00 p.m. at the rate of 50 cents per vehicle. On weekends, approximately 550 vehicles exit after 10:00 p.m. The average stay per vehicle (between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.) is currently two and one-half hours. However, we suspect that the average stay for those vehicles exiting after 10:00 p.m. is much longer and that it is possible that we could almost double our revenue from 10:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. by having cashiers on duty until 3:00 a.m. Several downtown merchants have recommended that we charge the hourly rate later than 10:00 p.m. as a way to increase revenues. We also continuously observe that a large number of parkers exit the ramp right after 10:00 p.m. This probably occurs because they have parked in the ramp longer than two hours and they can save money by waiting until the rate drops at 10:00 p.m. to only 50 cents. Having cashiers on duty would also speed up the exiting of the theater patrons after 10:00 p.m. in that they would not have to find the correct change in order to exit. To extend the cashiers' hours would require adding four part-time cashier positions at an approximate cost of $420 per week. This compares with our weekly revenue after 10:00 p.m. of $1,800. Therefore, the increased revenue which would be raised as a result of extending the cashiers' hours and the 25 cent hourly rate, should more than sufficiently pay for the additional personnel costs. i 141CROFILMED BY � 1 I _ -JORM "MIC RYJCAB'� CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOIRES 1 576 J I � RESOLUTION NO. 83-81 RESOLUTION SETTING PARKING RATES FOR CHAUNCEY SWAN PLAZA.

This memo addresses each item and provides our current recommendations. PERMIT PARKING IN PARKING RAMPS Since Christmas, the occupancy in both ramps has been monitored. Peak usage typieach c that timerio alloccurs beween 11:00 hramp has between 150 to 200avacant dparking paces. dTherefore, theeCapitol Street ramp has a minimum of .20 percent of its spaces empty at all times, while the Dubuque Street ramp has a minimum of.40 percent of its spaces empty. There are currently 74 monthly permits in the Capitol Street ramp and 73 in the Dubuque Street ramp. For the last nine months, we have limited permit sales to renewals only; this has allowed for the gradual reduction of permits from the original 100 issued per ramp. It is obvious from the continuing requests for permits, that many more permits could be sold in each ramp, but we have limited permit parking in order to avoid further limiting the parking available for shoppers or the short-term parker in the Central Business District. The financial feasibility study done prior to the construction of the ramps projected that each ramp would be operating at a 70 percent average occupancy, during the daytime, in FY82. Actual average occupancy between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM for FY82 ranged from 36% to 53% in the Capitol Street ramp and from 31% to 50% in the Dubuque Street ramp. Occupancy during the peak usage hours (11:00 AM to 2:00 PM) is approximately 78% in the Capitol Street Ramp and 55% in the Dubuque Street Ramp. The parking problems which have occurred in the ramps during the past year have not resulted because of shortages in parking spaces, but rather because of congestion in the ramps due to the poor traffic circulation patterns. In fact, even though the ramps were extremely busy between Thanksgiving and Christmas, the ramps were never 100 percent full. Therefore, there is no justification to remove permit parking from the ramps at this time. For, not only is there more than sufficient parking in the ramps on all but the few extremely busy days of the year, there is also limited long-term Parking available within the Central Business District. In order to better utilize the existing ramp space and continue to maximize revenues, we recommend selling 51 more permits in the Capitol Street ramp and 52 i MICROFILMED BY I1 1 MIC RbLAB" CEDAR RAPIDS •DES MOIYES ' I I oz.�r 577 (. 1 2 more in the Dubuque Street ramp. This will increase the number of permits to 125 per ramp. Adding these permits will increase average occupancy by 5% in the Capitol Street ramp and by 10% in the Dubuque Street ramp. Even with these additional permits, it would still have been rare to reach 100% occupancy during the past Christmas shopping season. It is not reasonable to leave so many spaces vacant 11 months of the year just to provide parking for the one month of heavy Christmas shopping. As has always been our intent, the permits in the ramps will be eliminated or reduced in number should the short- term parking demand in the future require more spaces in the ramps. The hotel opening will most certainly require the reduction of permits in the Dubuque Street ramp. But, those parking spaces should not sit empty until that opening date. As such, the permit holders will continue to be informed of the City's right to eliminate permits in the future. Because of the shortage of long-term parking in the CBD, any future elimination of ramp permits, in either ramp, will be very unpopular with the permit holders and the Council should expect very negative reactions. Effective April 1, 1983, we will require that all permit holders park on the upper two levels in the ramps. This will free up the choice parking spaces on the lower levels for the short-term parkers or shoppers, a long-time request from the downtown merchants. In addition, traffic on those upper levels will deter the vandalism that is now present because those levels are rarely used. In order to enforce, monitor and effectively limit the permit parkers to the upper two levels, it will be necessary to eliminate the one month permits. Effective April 1, 1983, only three month permits will be sold for the ramps. Three month permit holders are now issued a sticker which is affixed to lower left of the windshield. As in the permit lots, the sticker color is changed on each renewal date. This allows the Parking staff to patrol permit lots and recognize current permits using color identification instead of walking up to each car and reading the effective date on the sticker. The one month permits are now issued a cardboard visor card as there are not enough colors available to issue a different colored sticker each month. In order to efficiently patrol the ramps and be assured that permit parkers are parking only on the upper levels, it will be necessary to issue the color stickers which are permanently affixed to the car window. To provide a different colored sticker each month would require four colors per ramp or eight colors total for the ramp plus three additional colors for the permit lots. That is far too many colors to have to rotate every three months. Permits in the lots are sold on only a three month basis in the C.B.D. lots (at a cost of $60) and on only a six month basis in the outlying lots (at a cost of $72). Therefore, selling only three month permits at the ramps will make those permits more equitable to lot permits. 577 f i Id ICROMMED BY 11. DORM-MICR6LAB'- - 1 CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOINES ( i� I ! I 3 CHAUNCEY SWAN PARKING Up through the last week in February, parking in the Chancey Swan lot remained at approximately a 50 percent occupancy; this is the average occupancy level since the meter rates were increased to 20 cents an hour last summer. For the last two weeks, occupancy has increased to approximately 63 percent and remains at approximately the same level all day long. This shows that long-term parkers are using the meters in this lot. However, 70 percent of the parkers in that lot are permit holders. In addition, the 15 two-hour meters have a very low occupancy (usually less than 25 percent). Fifty-five monthly permits have been sold in this lot and there are nine people on the waiting list for permits. Because of the shortage of long-term parking in and near the CBD, we recommend that 40 additional monthly permits be sold for this lot. First choice would be given to those people on the Chauncey Swan waiting list and then to the 42 people on the Civic Center lot waiting list prior to offering the permits to the general public. In the past we have discussed the possibility of moving the permits from the parking ramps to this lot. However, because of the occupancy levels of the parking ramps, there is no justification for taking the permits out of the ramps at this time. In addition, the additional permit parking in the Chauncey Swan lot will help in meeting the need in the CBD for long-term parking. Since the 15 short-term meters in the west part of the lot have such a low occupancy level, we recommend that eight of those meters remain two-hour meters and that the other seven meters be changed to five-hour meters. This would allow for some longer-term metered parking for those parkers going to the Civic Center or other nearby businesses. The meters in the rest of the lot are ten hour meters. j When the parking meters were increased to 20 cents an hour, the fee for the monthly permit was also increased to $20 per month. This made the fees charged in that lot consistent with the fees charged in the CBD area, that area which is west of Gilbert Street. The Chauncey Swan lot is more easily accessible to the CBD than the Recreation Center lot and the Civic Center lot which justifies a higher monthly permit rate in the Chauncey Swan lot. However, the permit holders in the lot are asked to make concessions for the Farmer's Market, which is held in that lot from June through October. The Market grew substantially last year and at the end of the season utilized the area under the bridge and the majority of the east bay of parking spaces. Because of the Market, we have in past years found it necessary to ask permit holders to refrain from parking under the bridge after 5:15 p.m. on Wednesday evenings or before noon on Saturdays. It now appears that we will need to apply the same restrictions to the east bay of the lot. Therefore, there is justification to lower the monthly permit rate somewhat. We recommend that the permits be sold in the lot (55 current permits plus 40 MICROP ILMED BY --JORM -MIC R;LA:B� _T CEDAR RAPIDS DES Id0I.4ES s77 J 4 additional permits), at a monthly rate of $16. Permit holders will be restricted from parking under the bridge or in the east bay of the lot after 5:15 p.m. on Wednesdays or before noon on Saturday mornings. The meters should be left at 204 per hour due to their accessibility to the CBD. Lowering the cost of the permits to $16 provides all -day parking at a cost equivalent to 104 per hour. Selling 95 permits for this lot will still leave 45 spaces for meter parking. FUTURE USE OF OLD MUNICIPAL LOT We have received several inquiries from downtown merchants, the public and Mercy Hospital regarding the possible reopening of the old municipal lot (the old Penny's lot) for parking by the public or permit parking. We did open it last Christmas to provide for as much parking as possible in the CBD. However, it does not make sense to open it now to the public for parking as long as there is sufficient parking in the ramps; operating it as an attendant lot requires the hiring of three additional cashiers to staff it from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., six days a week. Since construction of the hotel is scheduled to begin in the near future and since we do not yet know how much of the lot will be required to accommodate that construction, the future availability of the lot for parking uses is in limbo at this time. And, the additional permits recommended to be sold in the ramps and in the Chauncey Swwan lot will meet much of the demand for the long-term parking in the CBD. bdw/sp 141CROPILMED BY 1 1.l JORIVI- -"RAICR¢tiAB- ' CEDAR RAPIDS • DES 1401IIES -5-77 i 1 i l JI LJ r 1 RESOLUTION NO. 83-82 RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING ABANDONED BICYCLE SALE WHEREAS, the Police Department of the City of Iowa City, Iowa has during the past months stored a number of bicycles which have been abandoned by their owners; and WHEREAS, the Police Chief has made every effort to locate the owners of these bicycles and has been unsuccessful in his efforts; and WHEREAS, the total number of bicycles which have been accumulated have now become a storage problem, and the same are a burden on the City of Iowa City; and WHEREAS, it is in the public interest that said bicycles be sold at public auction to the highest bidders.
