Motion adopted, 6/0, with Perret absent. Council acknowledged receipt of the recommendation of the Library Board of Trustees that a site be reserved for a new library building in Block 64 and the Committee on Community Needs' recommendation to adopt the amended CCN bylaws. Neither recommendation required Council action. A meeting between Council and the Library Board will be scheduled in the near future, and the CCN bylaws had been previously forwarded to the City Council Rules Committee for their recommendation. The Planning and zoning Commission's recommendation to approve the Preliminary P.A.D. and preliminary plat for Village Green, Part 6, was discussed. Tom Cilek appeared on behalf of the Village Green Homeowners Association, and submitted a peti- tion from them objecting to this development - Dave Cahill, Village Green Boulevard; and Dick McCreedy and George Nagle, of the Iowa City Development Company expressed their views re- garding this development. After deProsse's motion to defer this resolution died for lack of a second, Foster moved and deProsse seconded the resolution be adopted contingent upon the fact that an extraordinary majority vote would not be needed. Roll call: Ayes: deProsse, Foster, Neuhauser, Selzer, Balmer. Nays: Vevera. Perret was absent. However, upon staff veri- fication that the petition contained over 20% of residents living in the area, the resolution failed because an extra- ordinary majority vote was needed. A motion was made by Foster and seconded by Balmer to set a public hearing on the request to vacate all or part of Ferson Avenue north of Park Road for August 3, 1976. Motion carried, unanimously, with Perret absent. A motion was made by Balmer and seconded by Foster to waive the filing fee for the vacation of Ferson Avenue as per the City Attorney's recommendation. Motion carried, 6/0, Perret absent. It was moved by Foster, seconded by deProsse, to adopt Resolution #76-229, as recorded in Res. Book 35, page 282, to Authorize the Mayor to Execute Contracts for Youth Services in the Iowa City Area with United Action for Youth. The City Manager requested that the minutes reflect that the recommenda- tion made by the Ad Hoc Youth Services Committee had been ac- cepted. Roll call: Ayes: FostP- Neuhauser, Selzer, Balmer, deProsse. Nays: Vevera. Motion ,-arried, with Perret absent. Page 5 Council Activities July 13, 1976 It was moved by deProsse, seconded by Foster, to approve Mayor Neuhauser's recommendation to appoint Doris Bridgeman and Sharon Bonney to the Committee on Community Needs, both with terms expiring July 13, 1976. Motion carried unanimously, Perret absent. Councilman Vevera noted Roy Justis' editorial on RXIC re- garding Council's actions on Urban Renewal. A motion made by Selzer and seconded by Balmer to accept the revised Urban Renewal Plan and have staff obtain re -appraisals on property north of Burlington as one parcel and property south of Burling- ton as individual parcels was withdrawn. Selzer moved and Balmer seconded as per Paul Glaves' recommendation, to refer the revised Urban Renewal Plan to the Planning and Zoning Com- mission for their recommendation. Max Yocum, 800 S. Dubuque, expressed his feelings against selling all the land north of Burlington to one developer. Francis Hamit agreed with Selzer's reasoning that supply and demand would control rent. Robert Welsh, 2526 Mayfield Road, stated he felt the revised Urban Renewal plan should be referred to P&Z with the deletion of street closures. Several Councilmembers brought out that there was a need of establishing street closures so the developers could formulate their plans around them. The previous motion had the following roll call vote: Ayes: Neuhauser, Selzer, Vevera, Balmer, deProsse, Foster. Motion carried, 6/0, with Perret absent. Concerning marketing, Mr. Berlin was totally opposed to Robert Welsh's suggestion to take steps to have City staff determine whether or not J. C. Penney, or other major businesses located in the Urban Renewal area, had plans for expansion. Paul Glaves, Urban Redevelopment Specialist, explained that the marketing strategy was not included in the plan recommended to P&Z. After further discussion, Selzer moved and Balmer seconded to utilize the single developer concept for property north of Burlington and utilize the multi -developer concept, individually or collectively at the bidder's option, for property south of Burlington. After this motion was opened for discussion, Mr. Welsh stated that he favored the multi -developer concept for marketing land. Francis Hamit offered his services as a developer to attract businesses for a department store. The City Manager advised that Hamit had conflict of interest because he has financial interest in the downtown area. The previous motion concerning the marketing process had the following roll call vote: Ayes: Neuhauser, Balmer, Selzer. Nays: Vevera, deProsse, Foster. Motion failed, 3/3, with Perret absent.

Motion passed, 6/0, with Perret absent. Council discussed the location of the proposed new Library building and the proposed purchase of the Old Post Office building and land. Some Councilmembers expressed their desire not to have the new library located in Block 64, or on any Urban Renewal land. After discussion of maintenance and demo- lition, Council by consensus instructed the City Manager to open negotiations with G.S.A. for an investment site for the new Library. Mayor Neuhauser declared a five-minute recess at 10:30 P.M. Councilman Balmer commended the ingenuity of the Public Works Department for recycling asphalt from Kirkwood Avenue to pave a parking lot. A motionwas made by Balmer and seconded by Selzer to adopt Res. #76-230, as recorded in Res. Book 35, pages283-284, Establishing the Pay Plan for all City of Iowa City Police and Fire Personnel for Fiscal Year 1977, to aid in calculation of pensions.

Foster moved and Balmer seconded to adopt Resolution #76-231, as recorded in Res. Book 35, on pages 285-286, Releasing the Assessment against the Blanche Roth property.

City Attorney briefed Council on his findings concerning the resale of the house located at 122 E. Court Street. He advised that Staff recommended the return of Constance Merker's check. Councilman Vevera suggested charging Merker a percentage Of costs of auction. These matters will be later discussed by Council after receipt of Mr. Hayek's memo. Council discussed the possibility of entering into a cooperative agreement with Coralville, University Heights, and the Board of Supervisors as recommended by the Housing Commis- sion. By this agreement, assistance payments could be made on behalf of eligible tenants outside our area of jurisdiction, provided the governing body of the area concurs. Councilwoman de Prosse moved and Balmer seconded to defer this matter until fall. Motion carried unanimously, Perret absent. 0 0 Page 7 Council Activities July 13, 1976 Councilman Foster moved and deProsse seconded to make preliminary arrangements for a management contract for Autumn Park Apartments.

This is in response to the interest expressed by Midstates Development, Inc., to contract with the City for management of the 64 units of housing for the elderly in said apartment building. Mr. Jacobsen, from Midstates; Glen Fountain, from the Housing Commission; and Lyle Seydel, the Housing Coor- dinator, were in attendance to answer questions in the dis- cussion that followed. Seydel stated it would be to the benefit of the City to manage this apartment complex because of the expertise and experience gained. The approximate $800 received from the 58 gross rent receipts would offset overtime wages paid and/or any other expenses incurred. If ever ex- penses should exceed this amount, money could be obtained from a clause in the contract. Therefore, it should never cost the City money. Council discussed the execution of a contract with Michael Kucharzak of Rehab Consultants, Inc., for the Iowa City Rehabili- tation Program. Mr. Kucharzak appeared and outlined his pro- posed program. He stated most cities rehabilitate houses to meet at least the minimum code requirements. Balmer noted HCDA funds cover the cost of the contract. Foster moved, and deProsse seconded to adopt Resolution #76-232, as recorded in Res. Book 35, page 287, Authorizing Execution of Contract with Michael E. Kucharzak, Rehab Consultants, Inc. Roll call: Ayes: Balmer, deProsse, Foster, Neuhauser, Selzer, Vevera.

The Iowa City City Council met in Informal Session on the 14th day of June, 1976, at 1:30 P.M. in the City Manager's Conference Room at the Civic Center.

COUNCIL TIME Councilman Balmer emphasized the fact that the Iowa City Municipal Water Treatment Plant is the only fully computer -con- trolled treatment plant operating in North America. There was some discussion concerning the Fejervary Park Children's Zoo in Davenport, Iowa, in relationship to Iowa City's former zoo. It was stated that the Parks and Recreation Department is work- ing on a proposal for incorporating a limited zoo in the Chil- dren's Museum. Councilmembers discussed the proposal submitted by the Department of Community Development in May 21st packet, en- titled "An Impact Evaluation Approach to Neighborhood Preser- vation and Enhancement." It was stated that this was one methodology to be considered that could be incorporated into the Comprehensive Plan. Mayor Neuhauser mentioned she noticed that Sycamore had been oiled. Councilman Selzer felt Kirk- wood Street needed repair near the Mall. Mr. Berlin stated Council would be discussing the bond issue and Road Use Tax Funds and how they might be utilized for street improvements next week. Councilman Vevera called attention to undermined streets in the Friendship Street area. Councilman Selzer indicated the great responsibility Council bears concerning decisions for the direction of Urban Renewal. Several Councilmembers felt a more professional staff was needed as soon as possible to help them make important decisions. Mr. Berlin informed Council that Urban Renewal was the only subject on the informal agenda for next week, before which they would receive more information on updating the Urban Renewal Plan and an assessment of the pros and cons for the various ways of marketing the land. Mayor Neuhauser requested Mr. Berlin to present a memo to Council by June 21 stating how an Urban Renewal director's duties differ under various options. This would clarify what type of position would be available and the kind of person needed for the job. Councilwoman deProsse distributed a memo concerning staff analysis and the City Manager's comments re- lating to Urban Renewal to be discussed at a later date. Council Discussion Page 2 June 14, 1976 It was established that all Council members would be pre- sent for the meeting of June 22 to possibly waive 1st and 2nd considerations and vote for final passage of the ordinance revising off-street parking requirements for two family dwell- ings and waive 2nd consideration and vote for final passage of the ordinance to increase overtime parking finesresent at2). Mayor Neuhauser and Councilman Vevera will not be p the June 29th Council meeting. There was a decision nofor Mdisr Berlin to arrange a Council meeting for the purpose cussing the Storm Water Detention ordinance when Bill Li sdley, from Powers -Willis could be available to answer question may arise. Mr. Berlin informed Council of the State Appeals Board decision to allow the City of Iowa City $42,257 extra for the City budget. $330,000 was requested. He also stated the City should be receiving a letter stating the reasons for their de- cision in the near future. Mayor Neuhauser mentioned there would have to be a review of the City budget and possibly a reconsideration of the refuse collection ordinance. She noted Mesvinsky's office had indicated the Revenue Sharing bill might be passed by July. If this becomes effective, the City would be eligible to receive funds from the Federal Government. The City Manager was requested to prepare a recommendation with alternatives concerning the budget. FREEWAY 518 Council discussed reports in June 11 packet 518 concerningbmitted by the responses to Humphrey s letter eeY Johnson County Regional Planning Commission's committees: Policy Committee, Technical Committee, and the Citizen Advisory Com- mittee for Transportation. Several Councilmembers felt the actions taken by the Policy committee were too vague and would allow the Highway Commission to use them for a basis to make major decisions Council might not support. Also, if the by-pass of the Iowa City-Coralville urban area would serve travel needs of both external -through and external -local traffic, it would not only increase by-pass traffic but would greatly increase the amount of traffic on local streets. It was noted the Techni- cal Committee has proposed the use of Melrose Avenue and High- way #1 S.W. for the by-pass intersection to provide adequate service to the urban area interchanges. Melrose, and several of the other local streets, are not ready for this kind of traffic. Concern was expressed as to the destinations of people using the by-pass. Dissatisfaction for the Technical Committee's report was expressed. It was felt they should have supplied information Page 3 ® 0 Council Discussion June 14, 1976 only on the technical aspects of the Policy Committee's actions rather than take strong stands of their own on policy. In answer to the observation that it seemed as if a couple mem- bers of the City staff were taking sides with the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission in opposition to decisions made by the City Council, Dick Plastino, Director of Public Works, indicated he understood that any decisions made on these com- mittees were made as an individual apart from his role on staff, and that Public Works had never been asked for recom- mendations on 518, only technical information. It was explained that normally Council would not receive a report from the Techni- cal Committee, but it was submitted in order to better under- stand the relationship between the Citizen Advisory Committee and the Policy Committee reports. Councilman Perret mentioned that the City could request the Department of Transportation to make a feasibility study to obtain a comparative analysis of economic and environmental costs and other costs between the two lane interchange and the diagonal interchange alternatives as depicted by the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission. Dick Gibson, representative from the University of Iowa, stated the effect and impact of some of these alternatives had already been studied. It was the consensus of Council to ask the Highway Commis- sion to provide information concerning traffic destinations and origins to and from the University Hospital and the Central Busi- inness Disin trict and alsofrom the north, south, east, and west. g thelseweraconnectionuforctheWorks JohnsonpCountydHomewhichmemo regard- Council will be receiving in Friday's packet. Consensus determined that a letter would be sent to the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission explaining that the City Council could not attend their meeting June 16 at 7:30 P.M. due to the Urban Renewal public hearing scheduled at that time. Isabell Turner, Chairperson of the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission, mentioned that possibly discussion on this topic could be held a week later for this purpose. After the appropriate data has been received by Council and more discus- sions held, Council will be in a better position to respond to Mr. Humphrey's letter. Selzer mentioned that Council should take this opportunity to express to the various transportation -planning committees Of Johnson County their desire to provide a complete belt around Iowa City to smooth the area. Bob Burns appeareflow of traffic to the Industrial Park ship residents who had sd on behalf of 75% of the Liberty Town- igned a petition supporting the construc- tion of a highway on the right-of-way that has already been ac- quired in that area. 0 Page 4 The Mayor declared a short recess. 0 Council Discussion June 14, 1976 Purchase of the Old Post Office was discussed. Mr. Berlin indicated June 23 would be the last day bids would be taken. Mayor Neuhauser outlined procedures that could be taken concern- ing this matter. They include: (1) proceed with the proposal which is close to the appraisal value with the bond issue, which would be outside the public bid process, (2) participate in public bidding and bid whatever the City feels like which requires cash, or (3) not bid at all. Reasons were given why this build- ing and surrounding area would be valuable to the City. The building is not acceptable for uses that the Committee on Commu- nity Needs could consider. After discussion Council rejected alternative #2. Ed Czarnecki appeared on behalf of the Arts Council. He felt this was the last opportunity for suggestions, and pointed out the potential for the building to be made into a Community Center. He supported the bonding proposal idea, and did not think it was important to determine how the space was to be used now, but to note that it would be convenient for future City expansion at a relatively inexpensive purchase price. He indicated the high degree of success Des Moines had with their bond proposal to renovate one of their old post office buildings. Councilman Selzer noted the importance of informing the public of the proposed use and total cost of any project for a bond issue. Estimates of renovation range from $300,000 to $750,000, depending on what use is anticipated. There was some discussion concerning the use of the present Library building after the new one is built. It would be acceptable for the same uses as being talked about for the Old Post Office. The Mayor stated that the Council wished to wait and see what happened with the bids, rather than sending a letter to the Federal Government showing interest in negotiation of the purchase price if the Government did not obtain an acceptable bid. BUS PASS PROGRAM Steve Morris appeared and explained the bus pass program. He stated passes will be sold the third Monday of each month for the following month and will be available at the Civic Center and three Iowa City banks. The bus driver will not sell them. The tickets will sell for $8 which will amount to a price break of approximately 208. This price break will be most advantageous to people who ride the bus daily. Coralville Transit will accept the pass leaving downtown Iowa City in lieu of a transfer. As the program develops, tickets could possibly be sold by other means, such as grocery stores or service offices, and payroll deduction systems. He mentioned that if the City was interested in a serious marketing program, he would suggest getting Pro- fessional help. He further stated the State Department of Trans - portion could assist by giving advice. Mayor Neuhauser expressed Page 5 Council Discussion June 14, 1976 the Council's appreciation to Iowa state Bank, Hawkeye State Bank, and 1st National Bank for their cooperation in selling bus passes. Present promotion procedures were outlined. Councilmembers briefly discussed the Transit Development Plan. One point brought out was that themoney he to finance cetthe Replacement Plan was set aside each year It was stated that some of the $120,000 allocated by the State could be used to build the bus shelter. The resolution app roving this plan will be voted upon June 22 and will state that the plan is a guide for continued, coordinated public transportation pro- gramming subject to annual review and update. A motion was made by deProsse and seconded by Foster to go into Executive Session to discuss Urban Renewal roll litigation and call mer negotiations for collective bargaining. Up on voted "aye". Motion carried 7/0. Meeting adjourned 4:00 P.M. INFORMAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION JUNE 21, 1976 1:30 P,M, The Iowa City City Council met in informal session on the 21st of June, 1976, at 1:30 P.M., in the Conference Room at the Civic Center. Councilmembers present: Balmer, deProsse, Neuhauser, Selzer, Foster, Vevera, Perret (1:35 P.M.). Staff - members present: Berlin, Stolfus, Schreiber. COUNCIL TIME Councilman Balmer suggested directing the City Manager to proceed with the sewer connection requested by Attorney Meardon for Carol Barker. There were no objections. He was disturbed at the comments in the Comprehensive Plan Coordinating Commit- tee minutes. The Mayor noted that the positive comments came out at the public meeting, but the negative comments came to the P&Z meeting. It was suggested that planting be voluntary. Councilman Balmer pointed out that in the soil map to.be done by the U.S.C.S. there is a gap between Sunset Street and the City limits. The Mayor noted that this was the last portion to be done, and that all of Johnson County would be done. Councilman Selzer suggested that arrangements be made with the contractor so that the Park Rond Bridge could be left open for the July 4th traffic. Councilman Vevera noted that the Police Department usually closed the bridge to west -bound traffic, and this arrangement worked well. Lower Park traffic had to come east across the bridge; Upper Park had to go west. The City Manager advised that he would check into it. Councilman Vevera questioned spending money for the mural at the Iowa State Bank Building. The City Manager advised that there would be no City financial participation. Concerning the slabjacking project, Councilman Vevera pointed out that he did not find any cracks on Arbor St., but advised again his concern that the residents of the 2800 block of Friendship Street are suffering damages to their homes. The City Manager stated that the Director of Public Works would report on this. Possibly it should not be slabjacked, but replaced with concrete. Council- man Foster pointed out that there is no 500 Ridge Road as listed on this list. Councilwoman deProsse discussed the danger concerning the fence around Plaza Centre site, and suggested closing off the portions of streets. The City Manager advised that there are plans to relocate the fence as soon as a decision is made. It 0 0 Page 2 Council Discussion June 21, 1976 was suggested that Dubuque between Washington and College be closed off temporarily, so that there would be some idea of how traffic would work at the Dubuque/Washington Street corner. Then Council added the closure of College from Dubuque to Clinton. There was a consensus to temporarily close these two portions. The proposed traffic ordinance might be ready by next week; it is being reviewed by the Legal Department. AGENDA The City Manager stated that he had two additions to the agenda: (1) Approval of the Final plat for Bel Aire VI Addi- tion. The legal papers have been received, and they will con- struct sidewalk on First Avenue within one year after approval of the plat, (2) a memo outlining an amendment to the Ordinance relating to parking for duplexes, which would prohibit anyone from paving more than 50% of the front yard. DISCUSSION OF URBAN RENEWAL PLAN Mayor Neuhauser commented that Council would discuss what they see for the downtown area, discuss the specific elements for the downtown area, the go through the plan, discussing each item. Councilman Vevera advised that he was reluctant to spend public funds for amenities, until buildings are built. Timing for street projects was discussed. The City Manager pointed out that the City wants to indicate in the bidding document what the commitments are and when they will be carried out. Councilman Balmer commented that the Urban Renewal Plan objectives were stated clearly, and some of the points made are just as valid today as four or five years ago. The Mayor suggested reviewing these objectives on page IV -3. After dis- cussion the following changes were made: In Section b. the word, "educational," was added to the last line so that it would read, "governmental, educational, and cultural center of the area." In Section f. the words, "public and private," were added to the first line so that it would read, "To provide safe, efficient, and attractive public and private vehicular." In Section g. the word, "bicycles," was added to the third line so that it would read, "different forms of traffic such as pedestrians, bicycles." There was a general consensus of the Council that the staff prepare separate paragraphs making pro- vision for support of mass transit and support for a pedestrian downtown. In Section i:, the following words were added to line 5, so that it would read, "central area, including existing off-street parking facilities outside the urban renewal boundaries." 0 0 Council Discussion Page 3 June 21, The observation was made that if the City is not to pro- vide long-term parking in urban renewal land, Council should be discussing where it would be provided. After discussing "open Space" as an objective, Redevelopment Specialist Paul orated into the draft so the staff was directed Claves advised that it could be ion, s will be objective on pedestrian orientation, to come back with a paragraph. Another paragraph general, needed on housing for the elderly and for housing in g which will be provided by staff. It was suggested that a statement that the downtown area is a neighborhood should be worked into the housing paragraph. Councilman Selzer com- mented that the City should meet as many of the objectives as it can within its financial limitations. on Page I-4 The types of Proposed Renewal Action, starting in mind the Section 3.a.3., to look at were then discussed. Councilman Selzer commented that the Council ought to keep round by the City for its retaining some of the urban renewal ground decided to own public buildings.

Space for the governmental campus was discussed. on Page 5. The next item for discussion was the Land Zone, noting that Use Map Claves explained the history of the Transition University h does not want facilities in that block. getting now the Council discussedeliminationk on the taxbaseansition Zone and this prime property ort has designated Paul Claves pointed out that the staff rep 5 82, and 64 as the Central Business Core. Blocks 84, 83, 81, 6, There was a general consensus to eliminate the Transition zone and make it a part of the Central Business Core with uses per- mitted in either area, except for University units above the ground floor only. Claves Council then discussed whether or not to leave in Sec. 2.a.1. ., which allows dwelling round floor are not allowed pointed out that residences on the g ing Code of Iowa iess District under the Zon in the Central Busn s subsidize land in Blocks 93 and 94 City. Use of HCDA fundto subsid 0 0 Page 4 Council Discussion June 21, 1976 for housing, and locating of elderly housing north or south of Burlington Street were discussed. The problem of pedestrian crossing on Burlington was pointed out, and the City Manager stated that it was a problem that has to be resolved, regard- less. Councilman Selzer pointed out the differences in code requirements and in costs of land inside and outside of CBD. Glaves mentioned that Block 64 was bought by the City for the original parking ramp, and is not under urban renewal. Council decided to leave Sec. 2.a.l.d. as is. Glaves explained the modifications concerning housing which are on pages IV -27, 28, and 29, and noted that the value of the vacated right-of-way on Capitol Street from Burlington to Court was figured at $76,000. Council decided that a transportation depot should be made a permitted use North of Burlington as well as South of Burlington, so it was added to Sec. 2.a.l.b. On page IV -8 the first sentence should read, "There are three development areas." Under Central Business Core, Area 1, the word "regional" was deleted from the 1st paragraph, second line. The staff was directed to rewrite the second paragraph to make it clearer. Councilman Perret questioned how reliable the assumption was that the Washington/Clinton corner was the 100% corner. It was pointed out that the Link Program Study verified it, and Link was willing to put their money to develop there. Kraft advised that the focal point is not the same as the 1008 corner. The City Manager commented that it was a combination of factors. The suggestion was made that paragraph 6 should come before paragraph 4. Concerning street closings, Glaves pointed out that it would not be harmful if Council would leave out a potential street closing, but the closings included in the plan are important. Kraft noted that the Area Transportation Study advised project- ing the land use, then looking at transportation. The Mayor requested that paragraph six be left in for now and considered again later. In the document Council was reviewing, the streets to be closed are: Dubuque from Washington to College, Dubuque from College to Burlington. It was decided to strike the original paragraph #4. In original paragraph 6, the words "arcaded" and "in the heart of" were questioned. Council dis- cussed changing paragraph 9 so that it would close Dubuque from College just to the alley for Hawkeye Bank. On Page IV -9, after discussion of paragraph 2, it was de- cided to defer the decision on it. Paragraph 3 applies to Hawk - eye Bank parking. Glaves explained paragraph 5, concerning the 100 percent coverage, the City Manager commented that the pre- miums are desirable. It was suggested that on page IV -10, the first paragraph be added to Area 1, and shortened by ending the sentence after the word "pedestrian -ways." The fourth and fifth Page 5 Council Discussion June 21, 1976 paragraphs relate to the super block. Glaves advised that the square footage in price in Block 83 included the closed right- of-way of College St. Kraft advised that it was also part of the financing plan. Glaves also suggested adding paragraph 7 to the CBCore, deleting the words "in order to facilitate pedestrian circulation." Council decided to defer paragraph 5. The Staff had presented new wording for paragraph 6. Paragraph 7 will be deferred to discussion on marketing, as well as para- graphs 8 and 9. Council decided to meet again on Wednesday, June 23, 1976, at 7:30 P.M. Meeting adjourned 4:45 P.M. INFORMAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION JUNE 23, 1976 8:00 P.M, The Iowa City Council met in informal session on the 23rd day of June at 8:00 P.M. Center. in the Conference Room at the Civic Councilmembers present: Foster, Balmer, deProsse, Selzer, Vevera, Neuhauser, Perret. Absent: none. Staffmem- bers Present: Mayor Neuhauser Kpresidinglfus, Glaves, Berlin, Eggers, Morris. Mayor Neuhauser stated that the discussion of the urban renewCouncil would continue with al plan. Councilwoman deProsse asked for an explanation of "100% lot coverage", which was given by Paul Glaves. He also stated that on page 10, cerning it had been decided to defer Item #8, con - the overpass. LIBRARY Director of the Library, Lolly Eggers presented several comments concerning the proposed Library, noting that the con- sultant's report was due on July 1, She cited the consider in siting a public library which included, have maximum accessibilityPoints to t should be in an area that and visibility, and il) it should Areas not People frequent because of other 1shopping to be considered included parks, governmentalPcom-* plexes, or residential areas. The consultant had considered sites in the area east of Clinton, North of Burlington, South of Iowa and West of but had narrowed this area down to North of Burlington, between Clinton and Linn Gilbert, area of the Linn, specifically looking at Block 64. In the building, ' square feet as requested for a single level presenta parking w not been provided for. Eggers noted that the P g was ideal. TRANSIT Traffic Superintendent Steve Morris was present for dis- cussion and to present a proposal on how to deal with transit at the intermodal transit corner which is the intersection of Clinton/Washington. His suggestion was for two to Washington Street west of the Clinton intersectio951 n 14' open traffic medians in with one vehicles onl lane, up the middle for buses and emergency be a 10' lane onTeachmedians fo�ubasb61 wide and there would shelter for each side of the street was loading and unloading, A transfer point for all the systems proposed. A central suggested. When 0 0 Page 2 Council Discussion June 23, 1976 asked for alternatives, Morris advised that no other area would accommodate all three systems. If Clinton were closed instead of Dubuque, Morris commented he would have to investi- gate it. A previous suggestion of providing for a shelter in a building was discussed. Council and staff discussed effect of moving the terminal one block south. The City Manager advised that a preliminary parking report from the consultant would be ready Friday. URBAN RENEWAL PLAN Area 3 - University Area. Staff had recommended moving to Sec. t ose uses w ich apply to the use of the Central Busi- ness Core, the balance to be deleted. This leaves the parking, College St. closing,and the pedestrian overpass. Glaves cautioned that this is the plan that the University agrees to develop in accordance with, so Council should lay down restrictions in the Plan they want placed against University property within this area. He stated that any contract for the sale of land between the City and anyone specifies development in accordance with the Plan. The Mayor questioned if the University was depending on the Plan. The Mayor questioned if the University was depend- ing on the vacation of College Street in buying that land. The City Manager will contact University representatives. Glaves called attention to Page IV -26, Paragraph F -- any change affect- ing any property or contractual right can be effectuated only in accordance with applicable State and local law -- and explained it and the letter from HUD in regard to this. It was noted that the City Attorney would have to make a report on the matter. Council discussed paragraph 1 on page IV -11 and paragraphs 8 and 9 on page IV -12. The Mayor asked the City Manager to ask the University representatives if they want to keep to the same plan, and also to figure out who is responsible for what. Concerning Area 4 - Central Business Service Area, Council discussed which streets would be closed under the plan, and others contemplated, and the effect of these closings on busi- ness and parking. Councilman Vevera objected to the number of streets being discussed as possible closures. They asked for the rationale for the closures shown in the plan. The City Manager advised that the decisions Council will make about specific land uses and how parking is placed, will have a major bearing upon what the staff relates to them about the value of the previous material. Retail uses on Blocks 83 and 84 were discussed along with parking needs. Glaves pointed out that 750 on -street parking spaces would be eliminated by closures in the proposed plan and lot parking where land is to be developed so a request for 1,500 parking spaces would be 1/2 replacement spaces, and 1/2 new spaces. Page 3 0 • Council Discussion June 23, 1976 Council asked the staff to incorporate the amendments on Pages IV -27 to 29 with the appropriate paragraphs in Area 4, on page IV -12 they agreed to delete the words, "in proper relationship to the Burlington -Court Street bypass and access ring" from paragraph 2 of Area 4, and to delete the words "such parking to be in proper relationship to the Burlington Court Street bypass and access ring" from para- graph 3. In answer to the question asked, Glaves explained that the words, "provide for", mean that the Plan should provide for, but that the specifics of who provides for are spelled out by a redevelopment agreement. Use of the word, "should" provides guidance for the developers. It was noted that in relation to paragraph 3, Page IV -12, any development south of Burlington would have to provide off-street parking, but north of Burlington they would not. Councilman Foster pointed out that between parcels 81/4 and 93/1, there is a $3.50 difference in land cost, and between parcels 84/1 and 101/2 there is a $2.50 difference, so those with lower land costs can afford to provide parking. Returning to paragraph 2 on Page IV -12, Councilman Perret suggested having auto -oriented uses incorporated in ramp facili- ties. Ramifications were discussed. The Staff will update some of the paragraphs discussed. Council decided that the continuing discussion would be on Friday, June 25, 1976 at 7:30 P.M. As Councilman Vevera will be absent from that meeting, he was requested to give his views on land uses to the City Manager. The Mayor noted that she would not go to the Conference of Mayors on Sunday/Monday. Meeting adjourned, 10:15 P.M. 0 0 INFORMAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION JUNE 25, 1976 7:30 P.M. The Iowa City City Council met in informal session on the 25th day of June, 1976, at 7:30 P.M. in the Conference Room at the Civic Center. Councilmembers present were: deProsse, Neuhauser, Selzer, Foster, Perret, Vevera, Balmer (7:35 P.M.). Staffinembers present: Berlin, Stolfus, Glaves, Kraft. Mayor Neuhauser presiding. URBAN RENEWAL PLAN Mayor Mary Neuhauser announced the continuance of the discussion on the Urban Renewal Plan, with three objectives: (1) to reach a decision about what specific things Council wants to see in the Urban Renewal area, (2) what is going to be the public commitment, and (3) what is going to be the developer's commitment. Next Monday then, Council could get into the question of where the buildings might be most appro- priately located, and how the land will be marketed. City Manager Neal Berlin suggested that first the Council should talk about the priorities that the Council sees as having to be within the urban renewal area. He stated that the Staff had gone through the plan, and everything beyond where Council had stopped the discussions was technical require- ments, no policy considerations, so they would go through and update the material and bring the changes back. Concerning the Redeveloper's Requirement on Page IV -23, he commented that the Staff is not in agreement with the Attorney on some of the problems, and Staff would like to discuss them further and come back to Council with a specific proposal. The first item discussed was housing, elderly and other. Director of Community Development Kraft advised that no HUD proposals had been announced for new construction, because HUD was behind in publishing the adjustments in the fair mar- ket rents, and they were waiting until those rents came out, then they would probably dump additional units on the market before the end of their fiscal year which is September 30th. The Mayor commented that if the Council is interested in hous- ing for the elderly, they should find out the maximum land cost HUD will accept, then be willing to subsidize the fair market value of the land down to that price. Glaves pointed out that Council could legally purchase urban renewal land out of HCDA monies. Once the City owns it, they can sell for what- ever price they want. The proceeds revert back to HCDA. The City Manager explained the specific provisions in HCDA which allows purchase of land for low and moderate income hous- ing. Glaves explained why the appraisal price was immaterial. • 0 Page 2 Council Discussion June 25, 1976 It s bonds could tbe sold, and athis would s an nnotvbe annessentialgcorpor- ate purpose. The City Manager noted that the cost would be 2/3 or 3/4 more than to buy it outright. ni ousing er if Councilrcouldhsubsidizehlandhan costldownytothe fairMayor marketestioned rent. Kraft advised that there are fair market rents based on median incomes. The City Manager asked if there was a consensus that senior citizen housing was a priority for downtown, and if it was, should the Staff work on the question of subsidizing it. council- man Vevera favored housing for the elderly but not subsidy for moderate income housing. Councilwoman deProsse favored elderly housing. Councilman Selzer was in favor of subsidizing housing for elderly but did not think it would fit financially in the downtown area because of the fire code requirements. It was Pointed out that the fire zone could not be changed. Council- man Foster was against having elderly housing on the south side of Burlington but advised that he was committed to elderly hous- ing. The Mayor commented that the amount of subsidy would deter- mine where housing goes. Councilwoman deProsse suggested explor- ing the possibility of using parcel 93/101 for a housing complex, and integrating elderly housing into that. Councilman Perret favored elderly housing downtown, but wanted to look at alterna- tives for financing. After discussion of HUD's rejection of public proposal and awarding a private one, Robert Welsh advised that the National Benevolent Association of the Christian Church, and Disciples of Christ, non-profit corporations, had received grant of proposals. Council discussed whether or not integration of elderly with other would be acceptable to the elderly. Continuing with discussion of subsidy of housing for non - elderly, the Mayor noted that she would rather go in this direc- tion rather than townhouses, and Councilwoman deProsse agreed. Councilman Vevera suggested letting people live where they can afford, not providing it for them downtown. Neuhauser, deProsse and Perret agreed that they were prepared to subsidize land costs for other housing on the land south of Burlington, which is approxi- mately 1/3 of the urban renewal land. Selzer, Balmer, and Vevera did not agree to subsidize, but if built privately, O.K. Criteria such as giving preference to housing proposal it would be over commercial proposal is precisely the kind of material that will have to be listed in the land marketing documents, if Council decides that is what it wants. The Mayor pointed out that the Council will have to decide if these things are so important that Council will make special provision for them. Councilman Foster pointed out that there will be 306,000 square feet of retail space north of Burlington. As 190,000 square feet of Page 3 0 0 Council Discussion June 25, 1976 retail space was taken down, there will be over 100,000 square feet more of developable space now north of Burlington. The City Manager summarized the discussion of specify- ing housing for a certain tract, noting that Neuhauser, de- Prosse and Vevera wanted to state that housing was the first preference and then commercial,if no housing bid came in. Selzer wanted to let private enterprise say where the best place for housing would be. There was a consensus that all want a major department store downtown. Subsidy and conces- sions were discussed. Glaves stated that one way to get a department store is for the City to sell a large enough par- cel for integrated development where there can be differential leasing. Kraft commented that no department store goes in on its own; the developer gives away land to get a full line store. It was pointed out that shopping center developers have succeeded in putting in department stores in recent years. Paul Glaves restated the fact that housing will be permitted above ground floor and office or retail permitted on the first floor on Blocks 83 and 89. It was suggested that professional offices could locate there and that mixed uses should be en- couraged. It was also suggested that the City could use a con- ference center and hotel, but it was not vital like a depart- ment store. The example of Sioux City was cited as a good com- bination of uses. It was also suggested that the previous feasibility studies be utilized. The commitment to parking should be decided. Glaves noted that the statement could be made that the City will pro- vide parking for retail space in the CBD, but it is not the City's commitment to provide parking for a hotel CBD; this sets out ground rules for uses. This would encourage uses Council feels important. If a hotel would come in near where the City is providing parking for retail, they would have to add parking at their expense. Another element proposed to be discussed was the site for the Library; instead Council decided that provision would be made for a Library somewhere downtown. It was questioned if the City has an obligation to relocate the Interstate Bus Termi- nal. Kraft noted that they had been relocated and the contract was for a specific time period. It was suggested that you could tie the bus depot to a hotel. The City Manager asked if four members agreed to give preference to a hotel if it came in. Neuhauser and Vevera agreed. It was decided to leave it on the list, but it would not be required. The Mayor asked for infor- mation as to how parking arrangements with a hotel would work out. Glaves explained that if a hotel was proposed and they Page 4 Council Discussion June 25, 1976 wanted 200 spaces, Council could incorporate them in the park- ing generally provided by the City for the downtown, and charge the hotel a percentage. He stressed that the parking has to be tied to the generators necessitating parking, but to not specify parking sites, so as to not foreclose options by stat- ing where the elements are going. The City Manager stated that no deal for air rights will be considered. Glaves said that the size of the parcel could be identified. Certain parameters will be set for parking. The Mayor stated that it was agreed that the Council will provide parking for retail shopping. Concerning the possible retention of the mini -park at the corner of Washington and Dubuque, it was pointed out that it would cost, for 65/2, $72,800 ($10 -a -square -foot land). Balmer, Vevera, and Selzer wanted the property back on the tax rolls. It was pointed out that this depends on how Council handles the intersection of College and Dubuque. Glaves noted that a park could be provided on part of the right-of-way from a street closing. The City Manager commented that any public improvements taken by Council beyond this point are beyond the obligation to HUD. He stated that the Staff doesn't agree on whether or not 2 lanes of traffic will work. The City Manager advised that the discussion on Monday would include the means by which Council wants to market. They will have more detailed information on street patterns and public improvements, some specifics on marketing, kinds of staff, and resources to be utilized, by the July 12th meeting. Concerning the sale of Block 101 to the banks, there is a memo in the packet about appraisals. The commitment to Iowa State Bank to relocate was pointed out. The Mayor said the appraisals should be started. The City Manager stated that if the bank isn't put there, it will be a problem, because the City will have to relocate them somewhere. Councilman Perret ques- tioned whether Council would have to vote to rescind the street closures requested by Old Capitol,and the City Manager explained that it would have to be done by Ordinance. This would be done Tuesday; also the temporary closures would be instituted. Meet- ing adjourned, 10:00 P.M. INFORMAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION JULY 12, 1976 1:30 P.M. The Iowa City City Council met in informal session on the 12th day of July, 1976, at 1:30 P.M. in the Conference Room at the Civic Center. Councilmembers present were: Foster, deProsse, Selzer, Balmer, Vevera, Selzer, Perret, Neuhauser (2:00 P.M.), Staffinembers present: Berlin, Stolfus, Glaves, Eggers, Kraft. Mayor Pro Tem deProsse presiding. AGENDA Councilman Balmer expressed concern over the contract with United Action for Youth. The City Manager commented that they want to expand out into the County, but he did not think the Director and the Board had demonstrated capability of doing this. The problems countywide, the six-month proba- tion, the relationship with cations other agencies, and the qualifi- for the counselors were items discussed. Additional information concerning funding from United Way was requested. The City Manager noted that the contract should be made con- tingent on the fact that they will not expand their role. Councilman Balmer asked for the City Manager's recommenda- tion on Item #10, the cooperative agreement with Coralville, University Heights and Johnson County Board of Supervisors concerning tenants eligible for housing assistance. City Manager Berlin stated that the Staff could pursue this, there might be some advantages. It was noted that the project is federally funded, and no extra staff would be needed. Council- man Vevera commented that if extra staff is not needed, what was the staff doing now. The City Manager explained that the number of units would be the same, and the staffing depends on the number of units. The problems of securing Sec. 8 units were explained. Mayor Mary Neuhauser arrived, 2:00 P.M. and presided over the meeting. Councilman Selzer stated that Iowa City had enough problems in their own community, and the responsibility belonged to the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission. Councilman Vevera agreed. After discussion, it was the consensus of the Council to defer the matter for further informal discussion. Councilman Balmer questioned Item #11, Midstates Develop- ment request that the local Housing Authority manage the elder- ly housing Autumn Park Apartments, suggesting that the private sector should manage it. Councilman Selzer agreed. Mr. Jacob- sen will be present at the 7/13/76 meeting. The City Manager outlined the advantages of the City managing. Cost and staffing were discussed. 0 0 Page 2 Council Discussion July 12, 1976 Councilman Selzer voiced concern over the inspection of single family dwellings, stating that he was not in favor of doing this. Mayor Neuhauser explained the connection with the rehabilitation program. Councilmen Vevera and Balmer agreed that the City is imposing on citizen's rights and noted they would not let inspectors in their private homes. The City Manager stated that previous Councils have beat the Staff over the head to get this housing inspection program going; it is not something started overnight. It was suggested that the Housing Coordinator, Lyle Seydel,come and explain why the City got into the program. The inspectors have already been hired. The City Manager outlined the procedure now used, noting that after inspection of the home, a letter goes to the residents explaining the deficiencies, if any, asking if the resident needs any additional assistnace, then the matter is dropped. So there are two results, (1) the person will be aware of the deficiency and (2) the City is aware, and when the rehabilitation program is developed, there will be a way to correct the deficiencies. Councilwoman deProsse asked if the parking permit fee in all parking lots was $10. The City Manager responded that it was, and explained the reason for the discount for city employees. when the lot was established, parking for employees was free. A compromise by a previous Council set it at $5.00. As it is not a part of the personnel rules or the labor contract, deProsse and Neuhauser suggested that it be a negotiated item. Selzer agreed. Councilwoman deProsse questioned taking 408 of the library lot for employees. The City Manager said he would check the proposed usage. Council decided to look at the whole policy for parking lots, and the City Manager commented that the finance department was working on a revision of the parking policy, which has to be done in conjunction with urban renewal because of the discussion on peripheral parking. City Manager Berlin pointed out two items concerning the agenda: (1) the revised Storm Water Management Ordinance is be- ing changed by the legal department, and will be distributed later, and (2) there is a change in the contract with the rehab consult- ant to add the Equal Opportunity. Councilman Selzer questioned how the amount of material was determined for the slab -jacking program. The City Manager agreed that it was bid on a per unit basis. Councilman Vevera stated that concerning establishment of calendar parking in 400 Block of E. Fairchild, the recommenda- tion to P&Z to require two stalls of off-street parking for the new multi -unit apartments, would probably be all right, but as most of the cars that cause the parking problem belong to students Page 3 Council Discussion July 12, 1976 in the dorms, he resented the fact that the University was allowed to build a new building to house 100 people but did not provide one parking space, but a private individual would have to furnish parking stalls. Councilwoman deProsse agreed the City should force the University to accommodate parking. The City Manager agreed, and noted that if the University is not in a position to provide long term parking, it may be necessary for the City to deal in a rather striking way with a change in policy for long-term parking, because if the City waits for the University, it would be 20 years from now. He agreed with Public Works, you can't deal with this problem independently; it has to be incorporated in the whole question of the parking policy. Councilwoman deProsse commented on the memo from Glaves concerning the proposed building in the urban renewal area, and asked if the Council had any legal authority to stop or enforce esthetic considerations. Councilman Selzer asked to see the plat. The City Manager pointed out that there was no basis on which to withhold the building permit. Councilwoman deProsse asked that Council's extreme disappointment be expressed to the developer. Community Development Director Kraft advised that the excavating had begun. It was suggested that the prop- erty be condemned and included in the urban renewal project. Councilman Balmer suggested clarifying the policy for Sunday Sales beer and liquor permits. After discussion, the consensus of the Council was to allow Sunday Sales Beer and Liquor permits for businesses with previous acceptable track records, and to allow the new applications for restaurants, but if the new business is a bar and will not serve meals from a menu, the applicant will have to prove, after a 90 -day period, that the sale of goods and services other than alcoholic liquor or beer does constitute fifty percent or more of the gross re- ceipts from the licensed premises. Concerning the installation of the traffic signal at Mel- rose/Woolf, Councilman Balmer asked if the University could require the City to widen the street. He was advised that they could not. A left turn was suggested. Councilman Perret called attention to the problems with the left turning signal lights on Burlington Street and with the synchronization of those signals. The City Manager pointed out that the segments had been synchronized and the walk signal segment had been increased last week. He stated that the Public Works Dept. would write a memo on the changes. Councilman Perret questioned whose responsibility it was to clear dead logs from the Iowa River, specifically under the Crandic Bridge. The City Manager stated he would investigate. Page 4 0 • Council Discussion July 12, 1976 URBAN RENEWAL City Manager Berlin gave a rundown on what has happened since the last Council meeting. 1. The Urban Renewal Plan has been revised and distributed, incorporating Council's changes. 2. Concerning the land marketing material sent in June, the parking report has been distributed. The parking locations, peripheral parking and phasing of construc- tion becomes critical as Council makes marketing deci- sions, and staff moves into preparation of marketing documents. 3. The program for the library was presented Friday; site detail by next Friday. 4. Correspondence to HUD concerning seniorceivedebackhous- ing sent by the Mayor. A letter was saying that HUD had recaptured the 62 units. There is still a major question concerning the economic feasibility of housing; there are three possibilitiand es including non-profit corporation, land write-down, public housing. 5. Housing generally.

There will be three phases: m acoordination of the planning, in-house, (2) general administrative matters and, (3) marketing, with con - staff includes a coordinator, sultant.

The Iowa State Drive -In and Perpetual Bank. Staff did not see any reason why that matter shouldn't be expedited, if the Council can reach a decision on how they would like to handle it. Two appraisals have been asked for. 9. For marketing consultants, three persons are being interviewed this week.. It is difficult to do any- thing else with appraisals until the marketing decision is made. 10. There is material on the agenda this week about the sale of land to the University, to correct the value of the property and complete the transfer to the University. He stated that this brings it down to the marketing decisions. The staff is at a point where there is not a great deal more that they can do, as they have completed providing the basic informa- tion. Council questioned going ahead on E 1/2 of Block 101, the College Block Building. Glaves noted that he is working on the marketing documents. The Mayor questioned if a public hear- ing would have to be scheduled on the urban renewal plan. Glaves advised that it might have to be referred to Planning and Zoning before a public hearing, but an answer from the legal staff is needed on this. Councilman Balmer presented his proposal that the parcels south of Burlington be individually developed, and the parcels north of Burlington go to a single developer route, which keeps 83 and 84 and 64 and 65 in one package for marketing purposes. Mayor Neuhauser noted that she favored keeping it all in one package, but to not market as before, because there were not adequate safeguards. She suggested the City selling as one unit, but with the take down schedule that would say that they did not take possession of any property until they were ready to build and had submitted their financing. Councilwoman deProsse did not like the idea of selling all the prime land to one developer. She favored selling the west 1/2 of Block 64 as a parcel. The City Manager noted that if Block 64 is talked about, two things become critical, the parking and the library. He added that if the property north of Burlington is split up, it will be hard to phase public improvements. This issue does not apply to south of Burlington because the public improvements are in, and because of the change in the commitment for parking. He stated that the question is not if we are going to provide park- ing for the library, but how. The Mayor commented that the people in the downtown area are asking what they will do for Page 6 Council Discussion July 12, 1976 parking during the construction. Councilwoman deProsse sug- gested phasing the marketing. Councilman Balmer commented that the City will never get the tax base if the property is marketed in parcels, and that the people downtown are waiting for Council to make a decision. Mayor Neuhauser commented that the problems of utilities, public improvements, closing of streets, changes of traffic have to be dealt with before the property is marketed so the people will know what they are buying. Redevelopment Specialist Glaves pointed out that the staff had left in the revised plan all the street closings, and if Council wanted to remove them all, it could be done. The Mayor stated that the Council must grapple with the problem right now. Councilwoman deProsse commented that this should be based on traffic circulation studies as recommended by our Public Works Dept. Councilman Perret favored at least two developers on the north side of Burlington, 83 and 84 a single parcel, and 64 and 65 either separately or together. Councilman Vevera saw Blocks 83-84 and 65 as one parcel and 1/2 of Block 64 as one parcel, but did not want the library on urban renewal land, as it would not add to the tax base. Glaves asked if the Council wanted to consider south of Burlington the parcels 93 and 101 to be market- ed separately, and if they do, what to do with the street. The consensus was to consider Block 93 and the west 1/2 of Block 101 and the street as one parcel. It was pointed out that the library would use at least 1/2 block and the parking for 600 cars would use 1/4 block. Council- man Selzer agreed he did not want to consider the Library on urban renewal property and suggested Block 63, south of the alley. Councilman Perret favored the library in downtown commercial area along with housing the open space. The City Manager stated that the City would have to buy the property -- Block 63. Use of street to build on was discussed, and use for the old Library. Selzer envisioned the library on Block 63, parking on Block 64 with skyway between. Glaves questioned what use the Council con- templated for the NE 1/4 of Block 64. It was stated that it could be parking area for that portion of the commercial area. Councilman Selzer concurred with Councilman Balmer to put out a single package north of Burlington, allowing the developer to use skill and expertise to give the City options and the best plan he can, the City outlining the elements they want involved in the program and phasing the redevelopment. Councilman Balmer asked at what point a new Environmental Impact Statement and the Land Use Marketing Study would have to be done. Glaves advised that he was not concerned south of Burlington because when the assessment and review are done, the point to watch out for is Page 7 Council Discussion July 12, 1976 traffic flow and where concentration ofemisIi is are going to be.

Neal Berlin joined the meeting and reported on recent deliberations of the Council and their progress towards a new downtown develop- ment plan. After extensive discussion of library sites within the urban renewal area and the minimum size of such a site, the matter was tabled until discussion on the building program report was completed. Following a recess for dinner, a motion to accept the Recommended Buildin7 Program for the Iowa City Public Library as submitted to the Board by consultant Robert H. Rohlf in June 1976 was unani- mously approved. Newsome/Ostedgaard. The site study was reviewed and referred back to the consultant for revision. Discussion of site location and size was re -introduced. It was decided to send a report of this meeting and the follow- ing resolution to the Council immediately: The Board of Trustees of the Iowa City Public Library requests that the Council reserve a library building site in block 64 of the central business district of no less than 36,000 square feet, exclusive of set backs, vehicle access and short-term parking. Motion unanimously approved. Bezanson/Newsome. Discussion with the consultant also covered the selection of an architect, strategy and techniques for a bond issue election and the possibility of further consultant services from Rohlf.

Participants: Mark .Janiuk, CCN; Flo Stockman, CCN; Tina Nielson, CCN; Diane Martin, Resident Manager; Sharon Van Meter, Assistant Director of Community Service Center; Julie Vann, City of Iowa City Purpose: To discuss the programs available, services needed, and social problems existing at Mark IV, in hopes of developing an improved living environment for Mark IV residents. Mark IV is a federally subsidized "236" housing complex of. 248 apartment units. It is located in a quite isolated area of Iowa City, relatively inaccessible to the downtown area and area grocery stores. The tenant population is approximately 1,000, including approximately 300 children and 35 senior citizens. A bulk of individuals are related to University activities either as students or employees. The majority of the tenants receive rent supplements. It is known as the low-income apartment complex of Iowa City. In 1973 the University of Iowa School of Social Work developed a Community Social Service Center. It was hoped that it could study the social service needs of Mark IV and plan appropriate activities to reduce vandalism, juvenile deliquency, resident squabbles, etc. Today the service center provides many activities and is predominately run by students of social work at the University. These include a Welcome Wagon, a single parents group, a child care list, joint recreation programs with the City, a neighborhood tenant organization, senior citizens program, and community studies. These activities alone don't seem to meet the tenants' needs. Sharon Van Meter listed transportation and physical space limitations as the negative factors restricting the program's success and hopes that by working with other interested groups and institutions, these needs might be met. Park of Mark IV's problem is its lack of identification with any one group. The children often times go to school in Coralville, yet Iowa City's programs for after school activities and recreation activities are all located within the city limits. To participate in City planned activities, the children leave their Coralville friends and commute to less familiar locations and new peer groups for recreational activities. We decided that a meeting with the Coral- ville School officials, Iowa City School officials, Johnson County Social Services staff, and the City of Iowa City staff and CCN should be called to disucss these recreation problems. In the past Iowa City has made several attempts to develop a workable Mark IV recreation program. Last year half day recreation programs were coordinated at Mark IV during the three months of summer vacation. During the school year, the after school recreation program (ASRP) coordinated activities, but because attendance dropped in the spring and because funding became limited, the summer program and the ASRP were cancelled at the Mark IV complex. As a replacement, the City tried to provide bus transportation for commuting to various schools where activities continued, but because this takes the children Committee on Community Needs fhmnan Needs Subcommittee Meeting .July 16, 1976 Page 2 away from their home environment, and no closer totheir thatalvilleefriends) this program has had limited success.

There was a consensus that the present policy of allowing donations to be taken at events was acceptable and that people should not be charged admission to events in City parks. Stockman reported that the Park Naming Subcommittee was trying to get word out to the public that the Commission is in the process of naming Northeast Park. The Subcommittee - Mascher and Stockman - requested Staff to check on the correct pro- cedure for the naming of parks. Discussion of the request for pool time from the Diving Club was deferred to the next Commission meeting. Showalter indicated that there was a possibility of obtaining a park site east of Scott Boulevard. There was a concensus of Commission that the Staff should pursue any possibilities.

Unanimous. This group use of the City Park tennis courts will be evaluated at the next regular S Commission meeting, with any other such requests to come to the Commission on a case by case basis. The Commission briefly discussed problems the Staff had had in the past with the Inwa City Community School District regarding joint use of facilities. Cilek suggested that the Staff put the problems in written form for use as a record. Phyllis Doyle was present to discuss the regeust by residents of Hawkeye Court to provide on-site recreational programs at that facility. Showalter indicated his desire to establish a policy of not taking programs to the people but having the people come to the facilities. He stated an example of the unsuccessful ASERP Program at Mark IV. Boutelle stated his feeling that Hawkeye Court was the Univer- sity's responsibility and Kelley suggested that the residents contact the University about the possibility of utilizing Recreation interns to provide programming. Showalter announced that bus passes were being provided in order to transport children to and from Mark IV and the Horn summer playground program. Steve Morris, Transit Superintendent, was present to discuss providing bus passes to 'other recreational' facilities. Cilek indicated that he felt that should be a Council decision, and that his only concern was whether the Staff felt it could handle large groups of children at one time. Lee responded that the number of children was not a problem. Showalter reported that a person had been injured at the fireworks display in City Park on July 4 and suggested that the aerial fireworks should be moved to Terrell e Mill Park. He also suggested moving the ground fireworks closer to the river.

Page 2 Housing Commission Activities Meeting of June 2, 1976 4. Old Business a. Proposed Minimum Housing Code. Branson read letter from Mr. Downer of the Johnson County Bar Association, asking for statistical data, reports, surveys and other studies which have formed the basis for the determination of need for the new code. Reply to Mr. Downer's letter was also read and it was stated in that reply that a member of the Johnson County Bar Association will be asked to serve on the committee being formed to further review and make recommendations on the proposed Minimum Housing Code. Branson stated that previous minutes from City Council do not necessarily state that a committee be formed. Rather it states that the Housing Commission communicate with interested groups on the proposed Code. After further discussion, it was decided that the Housing Commission should meet with various groups or individuals, corresponding in writing as to recommendations and meeting with a few representatives at a time. Final decision making to be left to the Commission. A letter to various groups will be written in an attempt to obtain imput and comments. b. It was mentioned by Branson that charging for inspections on pre -sale and not charging for routine inspecF.ions would be discriminatory. Seydel stated that the way to eliminate this discriminatory action is to charge for all inspections or possibly rental permits. Seydel will look into this matter further regarding State Codes, etc. 5. New Business a. Housing Inspection statistical data. Seydel stated that the methods for keeping statistical information in the Minimum Housing Section have been revised. The new method will cut off approximately one hour per day inspection time but will produce better records.

Hibbs suggested that the Commission begin discussion with comments from Bud Means on the overall philosophical view by the Board of Realtors on the proposed Minimum Housing Standards. Bud Means stated that some realtors feel that the inspections are being done for inspection's sake alone, rather than reason to believe a property is substandard or a health hazard. It is felt that violations are being noted that aren't necessarily health or safety hazards. There is opposition to the mandatory inspection of owner occupied single family dwellings on a routine basis. There is also opposition to the mandatory pre- sale inspection of owner occupied dwellings. Feeling is that more emphasis should be placed on multiple units and less on owner occupied single family dwellings. The following specific comments were brought to the attention of the Housing Commission concerning the proposed Minimum housing Standards as written: 1.

Minutes of the regular meeting of May 27 and informal meeting June 2 were approved with one correction. Richerson/Bezanson. Motion approved to accept Financial Report and approval of dis- bursements. Bezanson/Moore. Director's report attached. President Farber reported on the request from the City Council for more information about possible sites for a library within the urban renewal area. Preliminary reports from the consultant favor some area east of Clinton, north of Burlington, south of Iowa and west of Gilbert; especially block 64, bounded by Burl- ington, College, Dubuque and Linn. Following discussion of preliminary totals for library expendi- tures for FY 1976 and explanations from the Director about the over expenditures for commodities (7000) and services (8000) the Board approved a motion to transfer remaining funds in Personnel (6000) and Capital Outlay (9000) to services (8000) and commodi- ties (7000). Bezanson/Ostedgaard. Unanimous. There was a pre- liminary estimate of a $1,000 to $2,000 balance in the library account on June 30, 1976. The Board discussed a suggestion to revise its agenda format but decided informally that the present format is flexible enough to be useful, yet structured enough to keep the meetings on the sub- ject and efficient.

DIRECTOR'S REPORT JUNE 24, 1976 Financial Unbudgeted expenses related to the electronic detection system, the decision to buy a new microfilmer and the higher than ex- pected rise in the cost of postage, telephone utilities, freight, printing, book processing supplies and other fixed costs were the principal causes of the over -expenditures in the 7000 and 8000 sections of the budget. As a consequence, nearly $4,000 budgeted for library materials had to be held back to cover those expenses. Administrative The time spent by the Director during the past year on building planning and labor negotiations have left little time for the day-to-day activities of administering the library. Staff ill- nesses and resignations this spring have made the problem more apparent. The Lone Tree City Council was not willing to let Iowa City Public Library bill them for cards issued to Lone Tree residents but insists that they appear at Lone Tree to get reimbursed for their library card. We have been notifying Lone Tree residents as they come in. This method will cause a problem for the resi- dents of the Lone Tree Care Center and East Side Village Retire- ment Apartments who have been using our mail service to shut-ins. We will not issue any institutional cards to Lone Tree without a special request from the Lone Tree Council and the negotiating of a special fee. We will be compiling a FY 1976 annual report which will cover some of the same period of the 1975 report. This will smooth the transition to a fiscal year report. The library is getting short of shelving space for books and records. All recordings cannot be put away during periods of lowest circula- tion (May, August, December) and book shelves are jammed. No additional shelving was planned for the coming fiscal year. Rather, we are planning to keep net growth to only 2,000 volumes by ex- tensive weeding. Both the children's and the general collection are being reviewed carefully this summer and any item that cannot justify shelf space by virtue of its use or potential use is being withdrawn. In planning for fiscal year 1978 we must decide whether to take out more seating and add shelving, or continue to check the growth of the collection by eliminating margional items. I don't believe we can continue to limit the collection size with- out seriously altering the quality of the collection and our ability to provide needed materials on demand. These decisions can be made more intelligently when a target date for a possible new building has been set. • 2 • Services After a respite during April, May circulation rose over 11% in the adult department. 33,034 items were checked out from both departments, over 3,300 questions were answered, 2295 people attended library programs, $150.00 was spent on postage notify- ing people that they had overdue library materials. Personnel .Jane Vandruff, senior circulation clerk, has resigned effective .July 16. She will move to Washington D.C. Aaron Caplan, son of former board member Ellen Caplan, is spending 9 hours a week at the library this summer as a volunteer. n `r MINUTES -- SPECIAL MEETING IOWA CITY PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION .JULY 26, 1976 -- 7:30 P.M.

Lakeview Knoll of River Heights, Third Addition -- Final Plat. River Heights area located easterly of Old Highway 218 and approximately two miles northerly of Interstate 80. Submitted by River lieights Development Co. Date filed: 7/13/76. 4S -day limitation: 8/27/76. Chairman Ogesen explained that the City of Iowa City had been granted a courtesy review of the subject plat by the City of Coralville, and pointed out that the ultimate decision of whether or not to grant approval of the plat would rest with the City of Coralville. George Kantz, Shive flattery and Associates, stated that he anticipated no problems in correcting the discrepancies noted in the July 26 Staff Report. A motion was made by .Jakobsen, seconded by Kammermeyer, to relay to the City of Coralville comments made in the July 26, 1976 Staff Report regarding S-7618, Lakeview Knoll, Third Addition. A motion was made by Blum, seconded by Jakobsen, to amend the original motion to relay to the City of Coralville comments made in the July 26, 1976 Staff Report regarding S-7618, Lakeview Knoll, Third Addition, by changing item 47 in the Staff Report to read as follows: "Streets and other public improvements should be either consistent according to City of Iowa City or City of Coralville specifications or an assessment waiver and agreement be submitted to the effect that if the area is annexed by the City of Iowa City, the roads will automati- cally become public streets and that the streets and other public improvements can be reconstructed according to the City of Iowa City's specifications and entirely assessed against the adjoining property owners." A vote on the motion for amendment carried unanimously. A vote on the amended motion carried unanimously. S-7619.

C) All distances should be measured to 100th of a foot, and so recorded on the plat. d) Error of closure is more than one in three thousand feet. The motion carried unanimously. Mr. Paul Glaves, Redevelopment Specialist, gave a presentation regarding revisions in the C.ity,s seven-year-old Urban Renewal Plan. Revision and readoption of the plan is part of the preparation for placing urban renewal land on the market for bids for prospective redevelopers, he said, and the City Council is looking for comments from the Planning, and Zoning Commission on the Revised Plan. After a lengthy discussion regarding possible street closures, traffic circulation patterns, and other elements of the Urban Renewal Plan, Chairman Ogesen asked the Commissioners to be prepared to discuss the plan again at an informal PEZ meeting on August 2 and to take action at the next regular P$Z meeting, August S. Commissioner Blum expressed concern that a determination be made as to whether the ownership of streets in Iowa City is with the City or the State. A motion was made by Cain, seconded by Blum, to request that the Staff draft an ordinance regarding one -lot subdivisions for consideration at the next regular PF,Z Commission meeting, August S.

ACTIONS TAKEN: Chairman Ogesen called the meeting to order and stated that consideration of the minutes of the .July 1, 1976 minutes would be deferred until the next regular meeting. Z-7608. Application submitted by Court Crest, Inc. to rezone a tract of land located north of American Legion Road and cast of Gay's Funeral Home from R2 to R3A. Date filed: 6/21/76. 45 -day limitation: 8/5/76. Chairman Ogesen explained that Commissioners had reviewed the rezoning history of the subject property. Richard L. DeGowin, 3022 Pinecrest Road, and Paul D. Meyer, 2706 Friendship, spoke against the rezoning. Some of the reasons given for objecting to the proposed rezoning were that further development in the subject area would increase traffic congestion, overcrowd the school, and create more serious flooding of Ralston Creek due to the increased amount of water runoff. A petition bearing the signatures of approximately 17 people -;�a5 0 -2- who object to the proposed rezoning was submitted and is on file in the Department of Community Development. A motion was made by Jakobsen, seconded by Vetter, to recommend to the City Council approval of Z-7608, application submitted by Court Crest, Inc. to rezone a tract of land located north of American Legion Road and east of Gay's Funeral Home from R2 to 113A. Commissioner Jakobsen stated that she intended to vote against the motion. Chairman Ogesen noted that an R3 and/or an 113A Zone would have less impact on schools than if the area was zoned R2 or R1B. Statistics have shown that an R1A Zone generates more school age children because of the age of people who buy single family homes, he said. Commissioner Cain stated that the density allowed under an 113A zoning designation for the subject property would seem inappropriate and incompatible with the surrounding area. The motion failed to carry by a 0 - 5 vote. Z-7610. Application submitted by Bryn Mawr Heights, Inc., Scott Barker, Attorney, to rezone a tract of land from R1A to RIB. Location of tract includes southern extension of Sunset Street and southern extension of Denbigh and Penkridge Drives and strip of land south of Bryn Mawr Heights, Part 7. Date filed: 7/2/76. 45 -day limitation: 8/16/76. Dr. .lames Diamond, 1114 Penkridge Drive, expressed concern about the impact the proposed development would have on Ernest Horn School. Chairman Ogesen stated that denying the rezoning request would not necessarily stop development of the area. Because there are commercial areas to the south, somewhere there should be a transition zone of "step down" zoning, he said. Chairman Ogesen noted that a petition hearing the signatures of approximately 17 people who object to the proposed rezoning was submitted and is on file in the Department of Community Development. Ed Thomas, developer, stated that the size of homes would be controlled more by restrictive covenants than by the zoning classification. Darrell Sallee, 1104 Penkridge Drive, questioned why it was necessary to rezone the area. Mr. Thomas explained that the rezoning was requested because there were a few lots in the subject area that were approximately five feet less than what would be required in an RIA Zone. Mr. Scott Barker, attorney representing Bryn Mawr Heights, Inc., urged prompt consideration of the request so that construction of the project, if approved, could begin during the remaining good weather. He explained that the lots would be sold with protective and restrictive covenants similar to those sold to present homeowners in the area. He stated that -3 - it would be unlikely that the school would want any portion of the subdivision 'is a school site. Mr. Barker expressed confidence that the deficiencies noted in the ,July IS Staff Report could be corrected within a short period Of time. Chairman Ogesen stated that he would prefer not to take action based on contingencies. Commissioners expressed a desire to discuss school overcrowding in south- west Iowa City with the Iowa City School Board before reaching a decision on the rezoning application and subdivision plat. Tony Osborn, Associate Planner, explained that lie talked with the Assistant Superintendent of Schools and had been advised to speak with Merlin Ludwig, Superintendent, when Mr. Ludwig returned from vacation. Commissioner Cain suggested that, due to time restraints, the Chairman of the School Board, Robert Vermace, be contacted. A motion was made by Cain, seconded by Jakobsen, to defer action on Z-7610, application submitted by Bryn Mawr Heights, Inc. to rezone a tract of land from RIA to RIB, and its companion item, 5-7617, Bryn Mawr Heights, Part 8, preliminary plat submitted by Bryn Mawr Heights, Inc., and to request an opinion from the Legal Staff on whether platting requests can be denied because of school overcrowding. The motion carried unanimously. 5-7611. Towncrest Addition, Part 4 - Tract C. Preliminary plat of a Planned Area Development (PAD) located east of Dover Street and north of Parkview Avenue. Application submitted by DJ 11 Enterprises, Tom Lyon, Attorney. Date filed: 5/5/76. 45 -day limitation: waived. After a brief discussion, a motion was made by Cain, seconded by Vetter, to recommend to the City Council approval of 5-7611, Towncrest Addition, Part 4 - Tract C, preliminary plat of a Planned Area Development (PAD) located east of Dover Street and north of Parkview Avenue. The motion carried unanimously. Don Schmeiser, Senior Planner, stated that the City Council at their meeting on July 13th referred the revised Urban Renewal Plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission for their recommendation and asked that they adhere to a 30 -day time deadline. Revisions made by the City Council involve updating the plan to eliminate concepts that have become outmoded since the plan was written in 1969 and to reflect new ideas accepted by past Councils but not added to the Plan. Commissioners expressed a willingness to review the Plan at a special meeting scheduled for Monday, July 26, 1976, at 7:30 p.m. 5-7619. Westview Acres, a final plat of a subdivision to be located approximately one-half mile west of Coralville Dam in Johnson County. Date filed: 7/15/76. -4 - Mr. Jerry Hilgenberg, representing Westview Acres Subdivision, stated that the City of Coralville has granted the City of Iowa City a courtesy review of the subject plat since the area which the plat covers is located within the potential annexation area of Iowa City. Mr. Hilgenberg explained that the property located within Westview Acres is located within the two-mile limits of Coralville's extraterritorial jurisdiction but is not located within two miles of the City limits of Iowa City. Commissioners indicated their willingness to discuss the request at the special P&Z meeting on July 26, 1976. The meeting adjourned.

Mr. Geshwiler, Senior Planner, explained that the Traffic Engineer was concerned that mature trees produce a significant reduction in lateral sight distance for the vehicular driver as he moves down the street. After further discussion, Chairman Blum expressed appreciation for Mr. Brachtel's comments and suggested that Committee members read the memo in detail and comment on it at a future meeting. Committee members suggested the following: (1) that amendments be made so that all ordinances regarding trees would be consistent; (2) that a list of recommended trees be established for public property and a list of trees not recommended be established for private property; and 12 2G -2- (3) that the City Forester not give tree planting permits to those wanting to plant trees which are not recommended. The Tree Ordinance was discussed and some changes were made. The Ordinance was referred to the Staff for revision. A tentative meeting of the CPCC was set for July 8 and a meeting was scheduled for July 22, 1976. Mr. Geshwiler briefly described a possible downtown traffic circulation route. The meeting adjourned.

The Police referred me to the City Attorney who referred me to you. Upon dlLscussing this concern that the University should be question with you, I expresed my allocated four free spaces arbitrarily while faculty and staff lots nearby remained empty, and while other citizens were required to use spaces posted with coin-operated meters, which are vigorously enforced. I received your letter of July 9, 1976 in response to my inquiry. I do aplreciate your interest in attempting to resolve the question. The resolution No. 73-351, to which you refer me does not however, answer the question. Although Council members Brandt, Connell and Hickerson apparently voted in favor of removing three meters and changing the next three meters to 30 minute spaces, there is no mention of reserving the spaces for university vehicles. In fact, the resolution as passed and ap::roved is not currently in effect, since there are four reserved spaces, and only recently has one of the meters been changed to 30 mi::ute limit. The Present situation is tLat there are four reserved parking spaces on the corner of Capitol and Coller*e Streets. I submit that their very presence consti.tute:± an unfair and discriminatory practice. I would greatly apprecia=e it if you would place this item on the agenda of the next meeting of the city council.

STOLFUS CITY CLERIC I am writing to you because I am becoming quite concerned by many of the proposals and changes in Iowa City which have come about due to the prolonged battle over urban renewal. Because of my concern I felt compelled to make at least a few of my feelings known. First of all, I do not think it would be a good idea to close Dubuque Street. Admittedly, Dubuque is a busy through street but closing it will just tie up traffic and we do not need any more of that, judging from tha traffic .fiasco o` closing, both Dubuque and College streets for the Plaza One construction. Besides, we hardly need a pedestrian downtown area when there are no stores left downtown to shop in. Secondly, I do not think that the elder housing complex should be located south of Burlington StreFt. All of the banks, doctors and stores are north of Burlington, necessitating the elderly to cross a very busy thoroughfare in order to get anywhere. Thtrdly, I would like to see the bus depot relocated in its original downtown location. The present location is extremely awkward to get to, especially when loaded down with luggage. Finally, there is one request I would like to make which has nothing to do directly with urban renewal, and that is the installation of traffic signals at the corner of First Avenue and Muscatine. With so many of the Iowa City businesses moving out to the Mall area the traffic at this intersection is becoming terribly congested and signals are badly needed. I was told last year that lights were being considered but have heard nothing further. Thank you for your consideration.

The City Council as well as the City staff and Planning and Zoning Conuruiss'on are closely exeruininP the subject of street closures in' dom�ntouan Iowa City At this time, no definite decision has been made regarding the closure of Dubuque Street.

The need for both a pedestrian orientation and auto access will be rrEade r.= Pressin as new retail, office, and residential buildings are constructed with in the urban e problem arca. 1110 Cit}• staff and Council trill be very caretW.} looking at the problems which might be created by the closure of any specific streets. Before such a decision is made, a thorough analysis of downtrnan t-3ffic will be conducted. I share with you your concern over t}ue probloms 14lich pedestrians hav* crossing Burlington Street. This is a subject which has been discussed by flue City Council on several occasions. 1,'o firm decision has been made regarding tvhe elderly housing should be located. Consideration is being. given to includi such housing north of BurlinVtOn Street, buut the cost of construction in th area will cause very real. problems. I would like to assure Construction ycu, however, tat wherever elderly housing is located special attention will be riven to nror�rinp geed pedestrian access from this housing. to the downtown areas wt�re the elc.erly aced to I The location of the bus depot is also undergoing, considerable discussion. C.r_- sideration is being given to trying to locate the btu depot at a location m. n centrally located and more readily accessible to both the downtown and to the bus systems operated by Coralville, Iowa City, and the University of IOurn. `;o specific locations for any specific facilities have been selected at this time. re t)te City proceeds uritlt rsarketing land, reviewing proposals, and entering into redevelonuxnt contracts, desirable locations for all facilities 'will be actively sought. Your comments concerning these specific facilities are very much appreciated. ' 1•[4.

JUL13197 - G29 Olive Street' �aIEI ST,01 Iowa City, Iowa 52240 CITY:CLEti July 12, 1976, To the Mayor and City Council: Since the Court has forced a reappraisal of the.;bidding Procedures of the urban renewal proEram,.it would appear, _o that the Council has also been Piven a chance to reassess the needs of the city and the manner in which urban renewal can_besi meet those needs. Since the original land'btilization- wab decided': several years ago, the city has undergone a,number-of changes. -7 Consider the university, the downtown business ,communitutlying:'. business developments, municipal services,,'populQtion'and.service;:_: patterns. None has remained static. It may; be that=some of these factors have changed sufficiently to require adjustments in'Ahe urban renewal land use. The municipal service with which I.am nersonally:,acqual. nted which has developed considerably.in recent; years is= the public library. It has seriously outgrown its facility, and pians are being made for a new facility. A prime consideration-, In .planning_' a new library is the location, and it would appear ,from the present l use of the library that to move from a downto;,m location would be'`: a. serious mistake. The obviousdowntown location- for-: a new.'library_ would be in the urban renewal area. There is parkins,central access to-public transportation, proximity:-to a major 'business and shopping area,and adequate land, already owned, for, a suitable building. I am certain that there are many more possible uses ;for the urban renewal land than there is land available. I. am also ;aware'.i of the need for decisions soon with the announcement:'of.the'rnew malls in Iowa Citv and Coralville which' would 'draw atoreawhich :- might have located in the proposed downtown `mall, :-.Ii;do, however,.' feel that the needs of the community as seen in the public`-'library:,-,m be taken into consideration in the decision-making-process.

Carol Barker's request for a sewer con- nection to a parcel recently acquired by firs. Barker from Barker Development Company. It is further our understanding that at least one of the members of the council suggested that it would be appropriate for Barker Development Company to set forth their intentions, in writing, in order to pre- vent the possibility of any future confusion concerning the position of Barker Development Company. 1,2 `i 7 0 0 -z- Mr. Barker did represent to at least two members of the Council that Barker Development Company would in fact be will- ing to petition for and consent to a voluntary annexation of that portion of the tract owned by Barker Development Company lying North of the creek which divides the property provided that lie could be guaranteed that his existing land use plan mould not. be Jeopardized by such voluntary annexation. Since neither the staff nor the council has the authority to approve of such land use plans, except as provided in the existing City Ordinances, Mr. Barker realizes that it is im- possible to condition Barker Development Company's Petition for Voluntary Annexation upon the approval of certain pre- existing land use plans. lie does, however, feel that it is necessary that all phases of the problem be discussed with the City staff and understandings in principle reached prior to the time that a voluntary annexation is actually commenced. It should also be rioted that there are other owners in the area who would of necessity be involved or affected by the voluntary annexation of the. Barker Development Company tract and in our opinion it would be necessary for us to consult with the other owners in order that an agreement in principle might be reached with them concerning the rights and obligations of the respective parties should a voluntary annexation occur. With a view toward determining what common grounds exists between the parties which might form the basis of an under- standing to be reached between the parties prior to the filing of a voluntary petition for annexation, Mr. Barker would be more than happy to make himself or his representatives avail- able for conferences with the City staff should the City Council feel that such conferences would be productive. The entirely separate and distinct problem of whether or not owners of real estate located adjacent to the Barker Develop- ment Company tract should be permitted to hook on to the City sewer line which runs through the tract in the opinion of Mr. Barker should not be conditioned upon Barker Development Com- pany's agreement to voluntarily annex its tract. Past City Councils have, for whatever reason, authorized at least two connections to the existing sever line to serve tracts out- side of the City limits of the City of Iowa City. To dis- criminate against Mrs. Carol Barker in her application and in essence require Mrs. Barker to construct a septic system - 3 - when a sanitary sewer with more than adequate capacity to serve her site is located immediately adjacent to her site, is not only legally indefensible but more importantly a needless waste of resources which in the final analysis serves no useful purpose. Accordingly, Mr. Barker would respectfully request that the Council reconsider its position that Airs. Barker will not be allowed to connect to the City sewer unless and until, not only her ground but the ground of Barker Development Company, a totally separate and un- related entity, has been voluntarily annexed to the City of Iowa City. rs very truly, r� (, lar es A.

We would respectfully call to the attention of the Council the following facts: 1. Old Capitol Associates has worked for the successful renewal of downtown Iowa City since December 20, 1973. 2. The sponsors of Old Capitol Associates have invested significant amounts of money and time toward the objective of rebuilding and revitalizing the commercial center of the City. 3. The sponsors of Old Capitol Associates are individually dedicated to assisting the community in its urban renewal efforts and have committed themselves to solving the problems of urban renewal that have plagued Iowa City since the mid -1960's. 4. Old Capitol Associates was the only group to respond to the City's invitation to undertake the renewal of the downtown area, under the guidelines established by the City.

On June 30, 1976 in a spirit of compliance and cooperation with the directive of the Court, and a desire to see the speedy resumption of the urban renewal activities in the downtown area, we delivered a deed for the property back to the City. We find it difficult to believe that it is the intent of the Council (on behalf of the entire community) to negotiate directly with the institutions that we brought into the urban renewal project and with whom we concluded specific development arrange- ments. we intend to complete the development of these properties and therefore were surprised at, what appeared to be, an intention to assume the advantage of our prior work.

Towncrest Addition, Part 4 - Tract C. Preliminary plat of a Planned Area Development (PAD) proposed to be located in an area cast of Dover Street and north of Parkview Avenue. Application by M. H. Enterprise; Tom Lyon, Attorney. Date filed: May 5, 1976; 45 -day limitation: June 19, 1976. EXISTING The proposed PAD is a 4.57 acre CONDITIONS: tract zoned RIB, Single Family Residential. The area surrounding the subject request is zoned RIB. Present development around the proposed PAD is single family excepting a church directly east, Village Green Commons (condominiums) to the north- east, and Mercer Park to the west. STAFF The developer has proposed a ANALYSIS: plan to be approved as a PAD. The Commission is charged by Ordinance with the responsibility of reviewing PADS so that the variances and combinations of land uses permitted will be in the public interest and in harmony with other building regulations of the City and will not adversely affect nearby properties. Review of the proposed PAD should consider the past inter- pretation of its intent. The intent of a PAD is to provide for opportunity to be innovative and creative in site design; a product that is not always feasible under existing zone uses. Any PAD which does not accomplish this intent should be denied or substantially altered to comply (STAFF REPORT, May 6, 1976). An R2 Zone would allow single family and two family residential mixing. The proposed PAD plan is not unlike development that could occur if the subject tract were to be zoned R2. Unlike the R2 Zone, the PAD will give substantive review standards to the Commission. As proposed, the PAD does not meet the intent of Chapter 8.10.20 in the Ordinance. The Staff does not consider the mixing of single and two-family dwellings as undesirable. This type of use mixing presently exists in the City with no deleterious impact by duplexes in well designed neighborhoods. The PAD ordinance is an appropriate control tool to ensure harmonious mixing of land uses in neighborhoods. The Staff, then, would recommend the following changes be made: 1. That the duplex use be dispersed as evenly as possible throughout the proposed plan; -2- 2. That the livable area per unit be approximately that which exists if the lots were all developed as single family. The Staff would recommend that lots designated for duplex use be approximately 8800 square feet in area (computed using a direct proportion of average square feet per single family dwelling over the lot area proposed to the average square feet per duplex over an unknown (X) lot area); 3. That a stipulation for adoption of an ordinance for the final PAD plan be -- that not more than two persons not members of the family may room in each living unit. In addition to the above conditions, the following deficiencies are noted and should be changed: 1. The proposed general arrangement of buildings and area of proposed open spaces (private or common) should be provided. 2. The inclusion of sketches indicating the general design of building types and overall character of the development should be provided. 3. The Schedule of Completion should be submitted. 4. The plat needs to be certified by a registered land surveyor. S. The title should be changed to Planned Area Development Preliminary Plan.

CLERK • 0 STAFF REPORT Planning and Zoning Commission July 1, 1976 SUBJECT: Z-7608. Application submitted by Court Crest, Inc., to rezone a tract of land located north of American Legion Road and cast of Gay's Funeral Home from an R2 Zone to an R3A Zone; date filed: 6/21/76. 45 -day limitation: 7/5/76. srAFF The subject property consists ANALYSIS: of about 4.6 acres of vacant land. The predominate type of land use in the vicinity of the property is single family residential detached dwellings. Non-residential uses -- a lodge, funeral home and a church are located to the east, west and southeast of said property. Vacant parcels of land zoned R2 and RIB abut the subject property to the north. The general quality of development in the area is good. Much of the area reflects an appreciation for sound urban design and sophistication of development. The present R2 zoning classification of the subject property would allow for a maximum development density of about 14.5 dwelling units per acre. This type of residential density is consistent and compatible with the immediate surrounding area. The R2 designation of said property provides the opportunity for the development of low to medium density renter -occupied housing in an area predominately characterized by low density owner -occupied housing. The Staff feels that an R3A zoning designation for the subject property would be inappropriate. An R3A designation would allow for a development density of almost 43.5 dwelling units per acre. The present dwelling unit density of the area is from 4.3 to 14.5 dwelling units per acre. This type of density relationship (4.3-43.5 dwellings units per acre) is incompatible and undesirable. If multi -family development is desired for the subject property, an R3 zoning change would be more appropriate since the development potential of an R3 zone is 14.5 units per acre, which is the same as the R2 Zone. STAFF The main intent of the R3A COMMENT: zone classification proposed by Harland Bartholomew and Associates, authors of the 1962 Comprehensive Plan, was to increase the needed supply of rental units in and around the downtown area of Iowa City, thus, providing multi -family housing for Iowa Citians who were unable to or preferred not to travel relatively long distances by auto or public transit to the University of Iowa and other nearby activity areas of the City. In the Staff's opinion, it was not the intent of the authors of the 1962 Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance to permit 113A development in scattered areas located throughout the City. Therefore, any proposal for 113A zoning must be especially sensitive both to the present prevailing values and needs in residential 0 -2- 0 developments and to the best assessment of what those needs and values will be in the years ahead. In this regard, it is suggested that future proposals for R3A zoning should be delayed until such time as the forth- coming Comprehensive Plan or new and revised Zoning Ordinance for Iowa City is completed. While a mixture of dwelling types within neighborhoods can be desirable, it is the Staff's opinion that multi -family development of scattered sites should occur under the R3 zoning classification. The R3 Zone, because of the limited density requirements, can be in keeping with single and two- family residential areas within the same neighborhood. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on the above analysis, it is the Staff's recommendation that the application be denied.

VAULT REPAIR PROJECT This project will provide for the reconstruction of the structural vault top which is located under the public sidewalk at the Jefferson Building. The existing vault top has deteriorated to the point where its structural capabilities are inadequate and has become a potential pedestrian hazard. Also, a new sidewalk cap is necessary to maintain a conformity of design with the R-14 Urban Renewal Project, but the existing structural vault top will not support the dead load of the required 4 inch concrete sidewalk. Amount shown is City's share of cost. 44-7 I RIVERSIDE & BENTON INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENT This improvement will provide for improving the geometrics and signalization at this intersection. The intersection does not have the. capacity to handle existing volumes of traffic. Left turn lanes on the east and west legs coupled with improved signalization will greatly improve the efficiency - of this intersection as well as reduce the accident experience. When final plans for this improvement are drawn, additional right-of-way may need to be acquired which is not included in the $78,000 estimated cost. 44-8 KEOKUK AND HIGHWAY #6 BYPASS INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENT This improvement will provide for improving the geometries and signalization at this intersection and the relocation of the east leg of the frontage road (Hollywood) to the south. A left turn lane will be added in the west leg of Highway #6 Bypass and improved signalization would provide full traffic actuation.

John Hayek JWH:vb Enclosures i'�),-7q 9 CA- ff c r) City/ of Iowa City MEMORANDUM DATE: July 29, 1976 TO: Neal Berlin, City Manager FROM: Director of Community Development RE: Personnel Changes Recommended for Department of Community Development Due to the initiation of a housing rehabilitation program and changing work loads in the redevelopment division present staffing arrangements are not appropriate to effectively carry out the responsibilities of the Department of Community Development. It is the purpose of this memorandum to describe the need and the details of the recommended personnel changes. These changes will enable the department to effectively carry out its duties in urban renewal, block grant administration, leased housing, minimum housing code enforcement and housing rehabilitation for FY 177. A complete organizational chart for the Department of Community Development will be presented in September. Redevelopment Programs Professional Staffing The Redevelopment Division of the Department of Community Development is currently composed of a Community Redevelopment Coordinator at the administrative level with salary ranging from $998 to $1500 per month, and two Redevelopment Specialists, at pay range 9, with pay ranging from $866 to $994 per month. The Redevelopment Coordinator was responsible for overseeing the completion of the Urban Renewal Project and the initiation of the Community Development Block Grant Program. This personnel classification system is no longer appropriate. s have ted to litigatil on whichrcaused nearlyal of thels situation. A Urban Renewal landctolon in the be revertedbcent ackto the City, has caused a drastic increase in the Urban Renewal workload. Rather than being in a situation of decreasing Urban Renewal activity, the City must now direct a major Urban Renewal staff effort. At the same time, the City has entered its second year under the Community Development Block Grant Program. The second year's program budget includes several action programs as well as the continued planning and program design phase. The projects relating to Ralston Creek, parks improvements, and housing rehabilitation will require monitoring to insure compliance with the Camnmity Development Block Grant Program regulations. Environmental Reviews must be accomplished. The accounting for both last year's and this year's Community Development Block Grant funds must be monitored. This increased level of activity in both the Urban Renewal and the Community Development Block Grant Programs can no longer be adequately handled by a single redevelopment coordinator, even with support from the two redevelopment specialists. Because both programs are building up, one individual can no longer adequately administer two such diverse programs. It is necessary that one individual concentrate on the administration of the Urban Renewal Program and another individual concentrate on the administration of the Community Development Block Grant Program. 127 + 1271 Neal Berlin, City Manager July 29, 1976 Page 2 IT IS RECCNNFADED that the Urban Renewal activity be carried out by a Pro ordinator (Redevelopment) with the support of from 1 1/2 to 2 redevelopment specialists. It is recommended Sian Co - be administered by a ecogram mmend Coordinator Community Development Block Grant program this change is: ( ) The required action to implement a. Reclassify the current Community Redevelopment Coordinator position now classified at the administrative level downward to a level 13, as Program Coordinator of Urban Renewal activities. b. Create a complementary position of Program Coordinator/CDBG at pay range 13. C. Retain the two redevelopment specialist positions at pay range 9. The elimination of one position at the administrative level and the creation of two positions at pay range 13, is justified by the fact that the individuals Who hold the two new positions will not be required to have as great a depth of knowledge and experience as was required of the redevelopment coordinator. Each Of these individuals will be dealing solely with a single program, rather than two. At the same time, because each individual is able to concentrate their efforts in a single program, the quality of work can be significantly higher. Salary requirements for the redevelopment division without this change would be approximately $3480 per month. Salary requirements following this change would range from $3400 to $3950, depending on the education and experience background of the individuals and upon whether or not one full-time and one-half time re- development specialist are utilized, division salary ror whether two full-time redevelopment specialists are utilized in Urban Renewal. The increase of redevelopment equirements will not exceed $500 per month. This increase is justified and necessitated by the program changes which have occurred since the establishment of this year's budget. Redevelopment Programs Clerical Staff - Redevelopment Programs, Clerical Staffing is currently under classified as summarized by the following activities: 1) The individual will be completing work for four staff members in addition to supervising the division 'flag card" typed work as rehabilitation program is developed. 2) During the CDBG application Process next spring, the individual will be required to take minutes of meetings and compose written summaries. 3) Due to the confidentiality of rehab participant information more responsibility is required of this person versus a clerk -typist. 0 0 Neal Berlin, City Manager July 29, 1976 Page 3 4) Due to the frequent public contact, the individual must have good judgement, an ability to work with various types of individuals, and knowledgeable grasp of the programs. 5) During the rehab program development, this individual must set up an efficient filing system rather than simply maintain an existing system. This position is funded through HCDA-CDBG program administration and Urban Renewal funds. The upgrading of this position will provide more adequate support staff for two multi-million dollar, federal programs. To best utilize administrative staffing time and effort, quality clerical staffing is necessary. The current job tasks clearly justify the position reclassification. Housing Rehabilitation Program The rehabilitation program staffing should now be authorized to allow for August advertizing and interviewing and then September employment. The following positions have been identified ---using the consultant's recommendations and considering current staffing levels in communities with comparable rehabilitation programs: *1 Housing Rehabilitation Supervisor and *1 Rehabilitation Construction Specialist for the following tasks: a. To supervise the operation of the program (supervisor only). b. To complete inspections and prepare responsible work writeups. c. To prescribe improvements, make cost estimates, and determine project feasibility. d. To be knowledgeable of all building codes and provide technical assistance to homeowners. e. To represent the city in a professional manner and respecting the confidentiality of participant files and information. f. To efficiently and responsibly complete a federally funded program maintaining adequate documentation and following prescribed rules and regulations. *1 Rehabilitation Finance Specialist for the following tasks: a. To screen applicants and confidentially verify income levels and participant eligibility. b. To counsel homeowners in financing requirements and finance management. c. To determine and process applicant finance package. d. To act in a professional manner. e. To efficiently and responsibly complete a federally funded program maintaining adequate documentation and following prescribed rules and regulations. 0 Neal Berlin, City Manager July 29, 1976 Page 4 0 All three individuals will be funded out of 11CDA-CDBG program administration funds. The (lousing Rehabilitation Supervisor will be at job classification 12, the Rehabilitation Construction Specialist at range 11, and the Rehabilitation Finance Specialist at range 9. The success of the program will depend on the staff we hire. To be competitive with other Iowa communities, we must offer comparatively equal salaries. To efficiently carry out the program currently being designed to meet previously voiced Council expectations, we must have a prescribed number of staff members. The positions and salaries listed above were advised by our consultant, Mike Kucharzak, and seem very realistic as compared to the rehab staffs of other communities. This resolution will authorize three staff members to implement the new housing rehabilitation Program. DEPARTMENT 004ANI2ATlONAI CNARr I COORNATORI I COORDWA(CPSCRI REDEV.SPEC. REOIW.SP£G.

Completed outline of job requirements Renewal. and staffing needs for Urban City of Iowa City MEMORANDUM - DATE: July 16,'1976 TO: Neal Berlin, City Manager FROM: Dennis E. Showalter, Director of Parks 6 Recreation RE: Pond Bank Stabilization - Large Pond,City Park I recommend that we stabilize approximately 700 feet of the pond bank (all but the southern portion of.the pond) by using grass paver blocks. The Park crew has devised`a stake to hold the blocks in place. The, approximate costs are $8,800 for the blocks and $3,200 for grading, soil, stakes, grass seed, willowtrees and miscellaneousexpenses, totalling $12,000. The Park maintenance crew can probably complete the project this fall.' I do not think it is practical to try 'to dredge the pond at this time. I have contacted a number of people in Des Moines about the possibility of pumping a slurry of silt and pond water into.the river and there is no chance that we could get a permit to do this. Dredging will be expensive and unsightly; the Engineers estimate it would cost $45.000. Gordon Russell thinks it would cost close to $100,000 to dredge out all of the silt, which is approximately 5 feet- deep. 'If we would dredge the ,pond, there would then be the problem of what to do with the silt. If we would use it to fill the smaller pond, it would take a long time to dryout and wouldprobablybe odor -causing as well as unsightly. Any other method of removal will be expensive. The maximum water depth of the pond is'5� feet at present and the average depth is approximately 311 feet. This is probably deep enough to successfully raise certain kinds of fish, such as catfish,.,for a fishing program.If.a fishing-- program � to really be successful and beneficial, it will be necessary to fence the pond to control access, stock the pond, .and cater to the groups who need this kind of recreational experience — kids, senior citizens, S.P.I., etc.' A desirable side benefit of the fence would be increased safety, both in the summer and in the winter. Last winter, the large pond was a valuable community asset as we had skating for 52 days starting on December 18. This consisted of 31 consecutive days, a one day break and:2L consecutive days. I have asked Jen Madsen, Jim Lindberg, and Ocie Trimble to assist us next year as an Ice Skating Advisory Committee. We will strive for a high level of surface quality any time the ice.is of sufficient thickness. to support public ice skating. If the pond water depth is�increased, - it will take longer for the water to give up its heat in the winter,' possibly reducing the number of ace skating days. /ef 1��3 • � �.. yr, to i � G..� v ...:1 f .7 G t DATE: ' .July 14, 1976 TO: City Council k FROhl Dennis R. kraft, Director, Department of Comnuntity Development RE: Relocation responnibilities for the Clinton Street Mall -tenants infor:ation on this subject was obtained from both the YY C rcvi::ed Relocation Handbook published in Febrnnry of 1975 (Relocation (landbook 1371.1 Rev.) and the earlier addition, of the Relocation landbook which was in effect at the time of the construction andtheleasing of the Clinton Street Mall. Because of the time period of this project, it appears as though applicable regulations from each of these sources do apply. Where conflicts do exist, there is a necessary - -- interpretation which has to be made. The other major source of information for this memo was ream the enrrespendence files to the various tenants at the time the leases were signed for the Clinton Street Mall. The initial relevant interpretation which needs to be made is one of wbuther the Clinton Street .loll is, in fact, a temporary relocation resource. One -needs -only to Look at the Urban Renewal budget and the correspondence to HUD to get this answer. The amendment to the Urban Renewal budget on November 2, 1972 indicates the temporary nature of this facility. The "additions to Exhibit viii, Part 2 Application for Loan and Grant:" Js titled "Temporary Buildings for Temporary Relocation". This is also consistent with the varions discissions held by the Staff with both HUD and the City Council during the latter part of 1972. The original :intent appears to be qVi c clear, i.e., this was considered atr:.;porary.. relocation facility. At that time, the projected life of the facility was described as "the expected life of the Urban Renewal project". The financing plan iwhich was drawn up at that time anticipated that revenues from the project were to be received until -parch 31, 1976. At that Lime, it was assumed that the Urban Renewal project was to be closed out, and that the modular units were then going to be sold by the City. The relevant factor here is that the period of use was expected to be in excess of one year, and this was approved by HUD. z ; ity council .July 14, 1976 _ Page 2 - Soon :, ftCr the modular UniI5 Were OCCUI)i C(l, a. .11rOop 1xnqwn as the '.

Another section speci.l'ically relevant to the Iowa City situation is Paragraph 2-29 of these regulations which specifically addresses the cquestion of cvletion ;1s it affects relocation. '171is;paragraph nuliraLes that eviction Prom properly -'owned by the local agency in no way arferts ulinil) iHty for relocation payments: 171is does not in any way iedi.cate that the LPA cannot evict a tenant; it merely indicates that the eviction procoecling does not relieve the City of the afore -mentioned relocation 'requirements.: This also does notaffect the eligibili-ty for relocation payrients which. woicld Otherwise be granted. 'file releases from claims which wcre'signcd by the various origi.nal tenants of the Clinton Street Mall at the time of the move into the Mall stated "LPA will pay cost of permanent move". It Is important at this point to make the distinction between the relocation requirenents confronting the City for. Mall tenants who were displaced by Urban Renewal action; -versus those who, later mored into the 61a1L of tlecir Oran volition. 7t is our position that tile City docs not have any relocation responsibilities for those tenantS 1•:110 later moved into the project, and also that the City does not have any relocation responsibilities for those businesses which have been subsequently, sold by tilt original Urban renewal.,displacoes.

In consideration of the program requirements accepted 1,.p the library board, and in view of the long term efficiencies of public service and staff costs, ;it is our 1eCOLmenda- tion that in the new library building all public spaces be located on a single ground floor level, We recommend therefore that the.library acquire a site in Block 64 of sufficient size to accommodate a minimum ground floor building size of 35,000 Square -feet. In view of potential set back requirenents, vehicle access and minimal short term parking needs we recommend a library site of approximately 4.5,000 square feet in Block 64, UNIVERSITY VAC LEAP HA -L OF IOWA O -O CAPITOL SCHAEFFER- HALL L- I G �: �iA v✓:RC1 ✓A✓C•YC �'•' AREA l:. •+1 LPA L'!

Libraries, like many public buildings, must serve for a number of decades and can use every possible advantage to insure that the library's full public service potential is realized and maintained. The location of the library and its relationship to the present and future social, transportation and business patterns will have a direct effect on the extent which the general community'xill make use of its library resources. Convenience of access will build up the volume of use and this greater volume will decrease the per user cost of service. The basic requirement in selecting the best possible site which is common to all the literature on the subject is that a public library should be as accessible as possible to the greatest number of users. Potential locations can be evaluated in much the same way that a businessman -would study desirable retail sites. In general sites in parks, in governmental or cultural centers, in residential areas or on secondary streets should be avoided. For most cities the greatest attractor of people is the central business district. While there may be competition from area shopping centers, the basic criteria for location are best satisfied by a central business district location: 1. An area frequently visited by all segments of the community' during daily activities. 2. On a busy primary street, preferably at anOteraec'tion. 3. In a dense pedestrian traffic area. 1}. Close to public transportation and parking. 5. At street level. In other communities the construction of a now public library in the central business district has provided the keystone to an urban renewal project. Minneapolis is one such example where the library served as a catalyst "or many millions of dollars in private construction. I ori10DOLo Planning, zoning, and traffic reports and maps were reviewed. In 14ay of 1976 the consultants inspected potential sites and reviewed and updated the information available in discussions with the mayor, city manager, city planners, traffic engineer, transit director and library staff. A list of potential sites was then assenbled and a number eliminated due to their failure to meet minimum requirements in one or more essential categories. The remaining sites were then rated on twelve basic criteria and a ranking of desirability established. A bibliography giving the basic sources used to determine the criteria has been attached. RFVIM4 OF POTFIMAL SITES An important new condition which was learned in the Mlay meetings with city officials was the fact that court action had stayed the Iowa City Urban Renewal Project R-14 progress and that the City Council was reviewing the entire plan. There was a concensuz on the part of all sources that this was a very appropriate time to investiC to the possibility of a new library location within ttre central business district redevelopment area. 2 Since there are a number of acceptable sites in the thirteen blockn under redevelonment, the first review focused within this area with the exception of tWO other locations, the existing Post office property at Linn and ;d«:,hi.ngton and the south or western half of present library block bounded by Linn, College, Burlington and Gilbert. These sites were included because both have been discussed as possible sites by sources within the city. IZirther evaluation eliminated the following property or areas within the redevelopnent project from further consideration. 1. The "University Iiall" or super block (Flocks 84 & 83) was elininated on the basis that this area is essential to the redevelopment plan and the subsequent improvement to the entire central business district. 2. The five blocks south of Burlington are removed from the high volume pedestrian area and Burlington as the principal and growing traffic artery within the city on the east side of the - river will constitute a barrier both physical and psycholoo c:l to the desired ease of access. 3. Blocks 95 and 92 to the west of the "University Nall" area were eliminated since this prop =rty is a part of the University Part of the project and is removed from the total central business district retail activity. 4. Blocks 81 and 82 were eliminated on the basis that existing commercial property, current private development, and the historic value of the CollcGo Block precluded the acquisition of enough property for a library site. The remaining sites for final evaluation are located in: Bloc]: 65, Block 64, 3 Existing Post Office property, S4 quarter of existing library Block. Each of the sites were evaluated on the following rating sheet using twelve criteria. Each criteria was rated on a scale of 0-4: Unacceptable - 0, Poor - 1, Fair- 2, Good - 3, Superior - 4. One unacceptable was sufficient cause to be eliminated from further consideration. /after each criteria is an assigned relative weight in parentheses. The total weighted score determined the ranking of the sites. The highest score possible was 400. An additional bonus of 40 points (10% of the highest possible weighted score) was given to sites which are owned or in the process of being acquired by the city. A. Site size (value 15) of: less than 27,999 square feet Unacceptable (0) 28,000 to 29,999 square feet Poor (1) 30,000 to 36,999 square feet Fair (2) 37,000 to 46,999 square feet Good (3) 47,0001 square feet Superior (4) The size is the most important factor with the irreducible minimum being established by the determination of space needed from the building program. In this project 28,000 square feet is the irreducible minimum. B. Vehicle access from outside central business district (Value 10). C. Proximity to central business district mass transit points (Value 10). D. Pedestrian access within central business district (Value 10). E. Site proportion and shape (Value 10), F. Access to available or plaruied paxking (Value 10). C. Proxinity to existing or potential drawing influences (Value 10), H. Lack of nuisance factors (Value 5), I. Identification/Do:aination of site (Value 5), J. Aesthmtic appearance of site (Value j), K. Potential enhancement to immediate area (Value .5). L.

Ei CONCLIISIONS , AND RECOI-IONDATIONS Although all final evaluated sites fulfilled the irreducible ninimun square foot requu.rement of 28,000 the available area did play a role in the, final evaluation, Th` Post Office property (#5) and the Sr quarter of Block 65 (#0 were considered as being at their maximum size chile the library Block site (#6) and the Block 64 sites (//2, .13, and #4) could be enlarged beyond the 30,000 - 32,000 square feet common to all final sites. The latter three have a real advantage in the fact tat the property is already owned by the city, could be expanded in size and the library plan could and should be coordinated with the development of the entire block.. This would permit some adjustment to the area used for library purposes. It should core as no surprise that the four sites (#1, /12, #3, #4) within the redevelopment area scored substantially higher than the two sites outside the area, although in the ^ase of site #41 the subtotal score before the additional credit for city ownership is only 25 points higher than the score for the SW Quarter of the library Block #6, The Post Office site, 115, has a substantial number of real liabilities for library use. Its orientation to the present and planned activity in the central business district as compared to the other five sites eliminated this location from further consideration. The library Block site #05 and the SE portion of Blocs: 64 (Site s14) are comparable in many ways and are far superior to the PcGt Office property but should not be. considered further unless the other sites in Block 64 become unavailable. The top sites in Blocks 64 and 65 all contribute to as well as take advantage of the existing redevelopment pl:ui.

Johnson County Growth 1 I 1 1 1 I 1 Chapter I: POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS OF IOWA CITY HISTORIC BACKGROUND When Iowa City's first census was taken in 1850, therewere 1,250 residents. The city's growth was stimulated by com- pletion of the railroad; as well as Iowa -City's --position as state capital. By 1860, the population had grown to'5,200. The major portion of this growth occurred before 1857 when the_capital moved to Des Moines. Growth then slowedisub- s,tantially, influenced by this factor,' a= temporary closing of the university (1858-60, due to lackof funds), and the Civil War. During the next ten years less than 700 people were added.to the population, and the growth rate continued to be moderate until 1940, at which time the population was 17,182. The 1950 census recorded a second major increase in popula- tion. However, this was the first time students enrolled at the University of Iowa were included in the population'count. From 1950 to 1974 the,.population grew 75.5%, from 27,212 to 47,744, largely influenced by rapid university expansion (see Figure 1). This growth 'rate was almost twice the national rate. Figure 2 shows Iowa City's growth in comparison�to the state and nation. POPULATION COUNT AGE AND SEX CHARACTERISTICS The 1970 population of Iowa City was 46,850; it increased by 1.9% to 47,744 in 1974. A good portion of the Iowa City Population is concentrated in the city's central areas. As Figure 3 -illustrates', the older areas of,the-city have`main- tained population density. In 1970, 51.3% of"the city's residents were female. The median age of Iowa City residents was 23.1 years in 1970; 22.9 for males, 23.2 for females. In 1974, the proportion of females in the population decreased to 50.6%. The median age rose to 23.4 years; 23.3 for males, 23.6 for females. The median age for the state of Iowa was 21.5 years in 1970. It is interesting to note that ' predominantly young population, years older than for the state in Iowa City, which has a the median age was almost two as a whole. This is explained 1.z FIGURE 1 ' IOWA CITY POPULATION 1900-1974 POPULATION - (thousands) ' 60 50 41965 Special Census "1974 Special Census 47,744 •' ' •46,850 40 -*41.60 2 i• i •'•33,443 30 _ _ •• '27,212 t• 20 ' 17,182 - '• 15,340 ••z67 •,r •11..••09.. tt, ' 1111•• 10.091 7,987 .. 0. 1900 1910 1920 1930 1940 1950 1960.= 1970 -,1980 ' YEAR POPULATION GROWTH IOWA CITY_ IOWA UNITED. -STATES YEAR Total Percent Total Percent Total' Peicent: Population Change*, Population Change* Population'__ Ch;nge'�` 1900 7,987 13.8 2,231,853 16.0 ': 76;212,168. 21.0,,. 1910 10,091 26.3 2,224,771 -0 3,,., 92,228,496;" 1920 11,267 11.7 2,404,021 8.1 j 106,021,537 15.0.'' 1930 15,340 36.1 2070,939 2.8 .- 123,202,624 16.2 1940 17,182 12.0 2,538,268: 2.7 132,1641:569• 7.3 1950 27,212 58.4 2,621,073.3.3 151,325,798. 14.5- 1960 33,443 22.9 2,757,537 5 2,, 179,3239175`. 1970 46,850 40.1 2,824,376 2.4 2031211,926 13.3 1974 47,744 1.9 2,855,000** 211,909,000** 1900-74 497.7 27.'9-:. 178..0: 1950-74 75.5 .8-9 *Percent of change from preceding census. **Estimate July 1, 1974..

The 1970 Iowa City population of children under nine was only 15.3% compared with 18;2% for the state." The difference between the percentage of 10- to 19 -year-olds in " ' the population of Iowa City and the state as a whole was only 0.1%. However, it may be noted that 18- and 19 -year-olds area among the college age population. The distribution: of children ' e in Iowa City is depicted in Figure 4 by area of the city. This map illustrates the percentage of Iowa City's children living;: in particular areas of the city. The .eastern region of the city, Areas II" and III, is the residence of the largest portion, ' of the city's children, followed by the downtown ",;Area I, and western Area VIII. -Not-surprising is the.:influence-.of"the'20- ' to 24 -year-olds, the largest group,(23.7%;of the,'population), in determining the city's age composition. Persons from"15-24 years of age Comprised 47% of the city's total population in 1970 (in 1974 they comprised 52%). The population in the'15-34 age range increased 11.7% from 1970 to 1974,:while the.'total population increased 1.9%; this age group includes a majority of students (see Figure 5). Senior citizens made up 6.6% of the 1970 city population and 6.3% of the 1974 population. This figure is considerably smaller than the percentage of,elderly in;the population state- wide; 16.9% of the 1970 Iowa population were over 60 years old. About.one-third of the 1970 Iowa City elderly population was concentrated in the downtown area of the city. 'Figure 6 shows e the proportion of the elderly population .in each area of:the city. (See Appendix.,2 for additional age -sex distribution figures.)- ' MOBILITY High mobility is another prominent characteristic of the Iowa, City populace. In 1970, only 27%:of the population five years and older were residing in the.same house as in 1965. Approx- imately -46% had lived in a different county, 17% in a.different ' state. 65% of the Iowa City population were born in Iowa, 30% in another U.S. state. The percentage of persons who,- moved between 1965 and 1970 was not uniform across the city:: Figure 7 shows the percentage who moved from each area. When.inter- preting this data, one should note that.Area VI was largely students (dormitories on both sides of the.river are included) ' and that parts of Area V were developed after 1965. Many apartment complexes are located in.the eastern portion :of Area VISI. MINORITIES The minority population in Iowa"City was '.small.

The ' hospital and health services subgroup was the second largest employer of women (Zl.l%) and the third largest of men (10.2%).

However, wover 10,000, Iowa City's median family income was 'among the lowest ones. Figure nes. Fissure 26 compares the family income groups as presented in the past three.census,years. Between 1950;and 1970, the number of families in the lower :income groups decreased sub- stantially, while there were very large increases in the higher income groups. However, it should be. noted that the cost of living rose by about 61% between 1950.and 1970. (In 1950 -1 -the -consumer pr -ice index was--72.1,..while_in..1970 it reached 116.3; the base year index of 100 was 1967.,) University of Iowa student families represented:a large portion of the total number of Iowa City families and a:substantial number -of -these families had limited economic resources. In 1970, 4,473 male students at the University. of Iowa'were married; 1,563 female students were married; however, the number of female students married to male students is unknown. No distinction is possible between low'income siudents.:and nonstudent families, or between student families where -the. spous.. e held a full time job and where both were students..:. Thus..... -: ,.there is.._little.information regarding the effect-of� student families on family income statistics. Since almost three -times as many male students as female students were, married, it may be assumed that at least two-thirdssof the: male -students were married to nonstudents who were in the— labor force. (A small number may have been' students elsewhere or ;not in the labor force for other reasons.) The effect on family income level was basically that of having a large number of women as primary wage earners, which tends to lower the average income. (See pages 1.31 and 1.37.for discussion of male and female wage levels.) It must also lie noted that the employment of -highly educated professionals (i.e.,pro- fessors) by the university tends to adjust ;the average income upward.

Nationally, 49.8% of alT household.- lived in the same house in 1965 and 1970; 52..1% in the region. In the university communities, this figure was considerably lower, ranging from 24 to 35q of all households. (See Figure 1.) ' College students comprised 25 to 460 of the population in these cities; the actual number of students ranged from 11,776 students in Fort Collins to 19,649 students in Bloomington. Additionally, students ' represented a substantial portion of-: the counties, populations. The populations varied from 14.9% who were students in Larimer County (Fort Collins)i,'Colorado', to 27.10 , who were students in Douglas County (Lawrence), Kansas. Iowa City and Johnson County both had the third smallest percentage of students in the population, 30.M an& 22.3% respectively, in 1970. ' (See Figures 2 and 3.) The median years of schooling completed by the peopleof j Iowa City was relatively high, even ' compared with other university- centered cities. (See Figure 3.) In 1970, the median years,. Of schooling on both the regional and national levelsiwas 1.2.1. The lowest median for the cities was 12.8 years of: schooling, whereas 14.0 , years was the median in Iowa City. Although a large portion of university students were excluded because of their youth (under 25 years old), the level of education of , university personnel as well as the availability--of' -.educational: Opportunity tended to produce a populace with a.higher median of schooling. In addition to the university, Iowa City also has a university-related hospital which serves as;a ' statewide medical center and a Veterans Administration hospital,: both of which employ many highly educated persons. -Other educational indicators portray Iowa City as similar to other university. towns;. The ' percentage of persons 25 years and older with a' college degree was considerably for greater these seven cities than;for the region or the nation. The Tabor force in university communities is typically, composed of a larger percentage of women and also,of white'' workers. As illustrated in Figure 4, Iowa ' City-had-the.larges.t_percentage of women in the work force in 1970, and the third smallest - percentage (63.6%) of the work force in white-collar occupations compared with other university areas`. Both' of these factors, (female and white-collar workers) were found in higher percentages in the university communities than at the regid regional and levels. national , Another distinguishing characteristic of university communities was the small percentage of employment in the manufacturing sector.

Iowa City had the ' median percentage (33.09) of employment in education and related services. Government employees comprised a large part of the labor force in university -centered cities, since ' the major industry (university) is government operated. As previously mentioned, there are two large government -operated hospitals in Iowa City, adding to the high government employ- ment figure. (See Figure 4.) University communities, like most cities ,.a]so provide employ- ment opportunity for residents of the surrounding; area. 'rhe ' labor force characteristics of the county',,thus give a.,broader Picture of the population by including those who are workday participants in community activity. 'rhe percentage of county residents employed in manufacturing industries was generally higher than that of the cities but stil.l below the regional and national averages. Johnson County (Iowa" City), Iowa, had ' the third smallest percentage of the labor force employed in manufacturing, which was significantly smaller than that of other counties. (See Figure 2.) The percentage of white- collar workers in the counties also reflected (but to a,_lesser ' degree) the city patterns, as did governmental employment and educational service employment. The percentage of workers., employed in wholesale and retail trade employmentlfollowed no particular pattern and was generally close to that of the city. Iowa City ranked fourth among the seven cities in median family and per capita income, as shown in Figure!5. Median family income in Iowa City was greater than the national.but,Iess than the regional median. Per capita income was lower in;Iowa City than on the regional or national level. It should be_.noted, however,_that_Iowa_City was -also_ on the lower.e_nd of,the spectrum with regard to both the percentage of persons and families with poverty level incomes, and was below the regional ' and national levels in percentage of low-income families.* (See Figure 6l) Iowa City has many characteristics . in common with other cities with a large university population. These similarities suggest that programs and policies which have been effective in commu- nities with similar social and economic composition may be of particular interest to Iowa City as it.examines its future alternatives. *See Appendix 6 for.definitions of-povcr.ty_.(l.ow-income) level.

PG/ssw 9 MINLrn:S OF STAFF MEETING .July 21, 1976 0 The Directors of Community Development and Public Works were reminded of their June monthly reports. Department heads were reminded that drafts of news releases are to be sent to the City Manager's office where they will be finalized, printed and mailed to the media. Comments from the staff were requested regarding membership with the American Management Association. This membership is renewable in September, and feed- back from the staff is requested as to whether or not this membership is worth- while. The Director of Finance was asked to talk with Tom Struve about renewing this membership, and Linda Schreiber will check into individual memberships in AMA. Comments were again requested from the staff regarding communication with employees. This item will reappear on the agenda until some decisions are made. The Director of Public Works suggested that department heads might write a monthly memo to employees at the time the monthly report is written. A comment was made that communication is more than a written page. A suggestion was also made about establishing an orientation program for new employees. More dis- cussion on this item will follow at the next staff meeting. The fifth cassette in a series, "The New Planning and Control," was heard and discussed by the staff. 0 CITY OF IOWA CITY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS MEMORANDUM TO: Neal Berlin, City Manager FROM: Richard J. Plastino, Director of Public RE: Monthly Report for the Month of June Engineering 0 DATE: July 21, 1976 Works The Washington Street Amenities Project is on schedule with all phases of the project, except the brick trim around the planting areas. This product is no longer available due to a strike and Engineering is researching alternate products. Veenstra and Kimm are continuing work on the Waste Water Facilities Study. Engineering has submitted the third revised project concept statement on Muscatine Avenue. In our cover letter to the Highway Department, we are urging that they process this as quickly as possible. The Park Road Bridge Deck Project is running smoothly. To date, there has been about $2,700 of extra work, which was not originally anticipated. This work consists of replacing faulty paving at the east bridge approach and some adjacent sidewalk. The State has agreed to the extra work orders and no particular problems should be encountered. The West Park Lift Station plans and specifications are complete and council has approved the plans and specifications. The College/Dubuque Mall project appears terminated for this year and it would appear time to cancel the agreement with Bill Nowysz. As soon as the direction of this project becomes finalized in the next few months, this will be done if necessary. Veenstra and Kimm continue to work on the lime sludge work at the Water Plant. There is nationwide resistence to the EPA regulations requiring treatment of water plant sludges and the City is not pursuing this project in an aggressive manner, while awaiting the outcome of the protest to EPA. A pre -construction meeting has been held on the Slurry Seal Contract. The Contractor alleges he is having difficulty getting the proper gradation of aggregate and it would appear he will not finish the project by the stated completion date. l as page 2. • • Monthly Report for June The Asphalt Overlay Project is moving on schedule and the bid opening date is schedule for July 27, 1976. The Mudjacking Contract has been awarded to Wolf Construction Company and Wolf will start within a few weeks. The PY 77 Landfill Project bids will be opened July 29, 1976. The ten -unit T -hanger specifications at the airport are being prepared. The Public Hearing is set for July 15, 1976, before the Airport Commission and bids are to be opened August 17, 1976. We are moving ahead with filling the Building Official and Civil Engineering positions. The air-conditioning study is under way and we expect results within thirty (30) days. Solid Waste Division The Solid Waste Division picked up 1,120 tons of solid waste during the month. Manhours per ton averaged 1.68, which is very good. Gordon Russell Excavating Company has almost completed the new road into the landfill. We are going to be applying a fiberglass fabric to the sub -base of the road prior to putting on aggregate. This is a relatively new product, however, experience has been that the amount of gravel can be cut by 30% to 508 since the fiberglass fabric prevents pumping of mud into the aggregate. The Department of Environmental Quality has visited our landfill at least twice in the last month and they appear well pleased with the progress we have made in meeting their requirements. The bulldozer has been received and it is operating in a satisfactory manner. We are letting bid specifications for our small pull -type scraper. As you recall, we are slowly destroying our John Deere front-end loader compacter by hauling cover dirt with it and purchase of a small scraper will allow us to move cover dirt better and comply with DEQ regulations concerning cover dirt. Pollution Control Division The crews cleaned approximately 2,300 feet of sanitary sewer. Approximately 136 manhours were spent working on the lift stations. There were two complaints on sewer stoppages. Both stoppages were property -owners' responsibility. page 3. Monthly Report for June The Pollution Control Superintendent attended a pollution Control seminar in Davenport. The summer clean-up and paint program has been instituted.

Additional detailed information is now being compiled on the Minimum Housing Code inspection program and it is anticipated that this level of detail will be continuously recorded on a monthly basis. Of particular significance in this area is the fact that of the 158 structures and 601 dwelling units inspected, only 55 structures representing 146 dwelling units were found to be in complete compliance with the code. it is anticipated that the Comprehensive Plan Work Program will be somewhat delayed during the remainder of the summer because of many committee members being on vacation.

Barker ECW/LGD/mek W 0 City of Iowa City MEMORANDUM DATE! July 27, 1976 TO: City Council FROM: City Managerwv RE: House at 122 East Court Street, Constance hkerker Enclosed is a memorandum from Tony Kushnir describing the actions relating to the house at 122 East Court Street. While the City legally could claim the deposit of $5,100 as a forfeiture, I do not believe that it is desirable for the City to take advantage of a citizen as a result of circumstances which were unknown at the time of the sale and particularly when other avenues of satisfactory resolution are available for the City. It is my understanding that at the time of the sale, Ms. Merker was confident that the property she had in mind would be available for the location of the moved house. Since that time, she has encountered conditions which make the Proposed parcel unavailable. Therefore, I would recommend that the City return the check in the amount of $5,100 less all expenses which may have accrued to the City as a result of the situation and that the City proceed to hold a new auction and sell the house to the highest bidder. Is Enclosure X300 July 9, 1976 John Rayek, City Attorney Tony Yushnir, Asst. City Attorney Rouse on 122 E. Court Street Dear ,john: On October 11, 1975, the City of Iowa City offered for auction certain houses, one of which was located at 122 E. Court Street. At that time the high bid was submitted by Ms. Constance Merker of $5 1.00.00. As of June 29, 1976, Ms. Merker has not remdved the !,Ouse 'from the premises. ids. Morker had deposited :with the City of Iowa City a check for $5,100.00 but has never signed the contract governing the sale. Ms. Merker has since stated that she was unable to perform the house move and asked for her $5,100.00 back. Altlough the City ray be able to claim the amount as a forfeiture, it is my opinion that the most reasonable �--sition would be to return the anount less any arpenses incurred by th-I City in reliance upon a Ns. Merker's parti.il performance and then rebid the house. Ms. Marker's tenter of S5,100.00 was pursuant to the marketing procedure as detailed in the "Rehabilitation Documents and Contract." The document further states that the house will be auctioned to the highest bidder who meets the qualifications. The mtalifications are as stated in the HUD form "Redeveloper's State- ment of Qualifications and Financial Responsibility." The City files concerning the house at 122 E. Court Street and the auction do not show a contract signed by Ids. Merker nor do they have the HUD Cntali- fications form signed by Ms. Merker. The general rule governing the sale of property at auctions is that a contract bocomes complete when a bid is accepted, *.his ordinarily is denoted by the fall of the hammer. Where the sell.er reserves the right to rrfuse to accept the bid, a bidding sale is not consumated between the seller and the bidder until the seller accepts the bid. In the ratter at hand, Ms. Merker's bid was the highest submitted although as stated above, I find no record in the files that she "qualified" in regards to the qualifications of financial responsi- bility. Without the Oualificati.ors form, I can only assume that the City found Ms. *•!erker qualifi.cd because it accepted Ms. Marker's check. in November, 1975. }caving made that assumption, the auction w,:s ca,-,->letel when the city accepted the check and t•?s. ':erker and the City occupied the ^ane relat9on toward each other as existed hc•tt•:et•n a pro.misor and promisee in an executory contract of a sale -2- conventionally made. Both parties may mutually rescind the agreement and the property be then disposed of as the City may desire. It's my understanding that there is an inquiry as to whether the City's obligated to dispose of the property to the next highest bidder. There are two theories unler which this possibility exists. The first is that the property was auctioned "without reserve", that is, the property will actually go to th^_ bidder offering the highest price. The argument goes that since ,a. ;terl:er %.a-- unable to go through with the contract, her bid must be d.iscouated and the property then sold to the next highest bidder. The problem with this proposition is that Ms. Merher's bid was accepted by the City wi,cm it accepted the deposit check and at that acceptance, the auction a connleta3. The City having tLe in auction "without reserve" was cthusecompleted. he hesSecond, t bid, bit hasibeenoclai:ned ns ,-at the auctioneer stated that if the highest bidder was unable to perform, the next highest bid would then be accepted. The rule whicli Iowa Courts have I is that the advance announce-ment, in this case the rarketing procedure documents, has no special significance other than to give notice of the fact that a sale is intended so that the terms contained in such advertisement or notices may be modified or added to by the auctioneer at the beginning of the sale. Under this proposition the City, if it were a private person, may be bound by the auctioneer's statements in spite of written procelures stating Otherwise. This proposition, however, I feel would be limited by the concept that a m;tnicipal corporation may not be bound by agreementsby agents who are not or were not authorized to enter into such aireements. I do not feel that an auctioneer's oral repres::ntations can bind a muni^'pal corpora- tion in the disposal of property without special authorization. If you have any further questions concerning this matter, please don't hesitate to call me. Tony Kushnir 0 0 o� �MIr[•C[ • ^ ' ///ylK • CMC CENTER. 410 E WASMINGTON ST. +•' 1 ^ ( W IOWA CRY.

In actuality, the intent of placing this in the Policy Statement was to prevent families from jumpinq in Page 2 • • 9. (Continued) and out of the program. This surely would have an effect on the overall acceptability of the program and would discourage property owners from participating. Further, it will increase the cost of operating the program by increased rental payments and liability for damages. The only other time this may be checked would be if during the application procedure it wast learned that the tenant was being evicted. In those cases, a check with the present or previous landlords may be made to determine cause for eviction. Within the HUD regulations as published in the Federal Register, this flexibility is provided. Please refer to: Paragraph 882.116C, "Receipt and review of applications for Certificates of Family Participation, verification of family income and other factors relating to eligibility...".

I'm not sure we know them all by name, We are especially aware of the important work done by Linda Ragland, but we're sure others contributed significantly also.

In addition, Powers Willis will provide City specifications for implementing the Stormwater Management Ordinance in regard to stormwater detention and erosion control. The status of the flood plain Ordinance was then discussed. The Federal Government has completed the flood insurance rate studies and comments will be received until October 8, 1976. Approximately six to nine months after that date the City of Iowa City will be required to pass a Flood Plain Ordinance. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned. ®City of lova .Cite MEMORANDUM DATE: July 27, 1976 TO: Neal Berlin, City Manager FROM: Angela Ryan, Asst. City Attorney RE: Municipal Campaign Financing Ordinance The Supreme Court decision in Buckley v. Valeo regarding campaign financing necessitates a reconsideration of the Iowa City ordinance. The court upheld the provisions in the Federal Act that impose a $1,000 limitation on contributions to a single candidate, a $5,000 limitation on contributions by a political committee to a single candidate, and a $25,000 limitation on total contributions by an individual during a calendar year. It invalidated the Act's independent expenditure ceiling, its limitation on a candidate's expenditures from his personal funds, and its ceiling on overall campaign expenditures. The court upheld the record keeping, reporting and disclosure provisions of the Act. The setting of the threshold at $10 and $100 was considered a judgmental decision best left to Congress. The Buckley decision affects the Iowa City Municipal Campaign Ordinance as follows; 1. Sections IV and V, Reporting and Limitations on Campaign Contributions by persons conform with the holding of Buckley v. Valeo. 2. Section VII(b) which requires a candidate to disavow Independent political activity is now of limited utility. An indi- vidual is still limited in the amount he can contribute to a candi- date; however, he may spend unlimited sums in independent expenditures, and the total amount that a candidate may spend on his campaign is no longer limited. 3. Sections VII(c) and (d) would now be unconstitutional. The alternatives available to the City Council is to amend the present ordinance; to repeal the present ordinance; or to repeal the present ordinance and adopt a different ordinance. �3� City of Iowa City DATE: July 29, 1976 TO: City Council J J FROM: Julie Vann, Redevelopment Specialist RE: Housing Rehabilitation Program -- time schedule; staffing; equipment needs; basic program plans I.

Donald Ward regard - for local review of I would like to acknowledge per Mr. Ward's correspondence that we have received two major items of information requested as part of the Iowa City Council review. These are 1) select -link analysis of 1995 trips on proposed Freeway 518 bypass and 2) 1995 traffic assignment to the alternative bypass corridors identified in our request. This information has proven very helpful and we will be summarizing it along with other information, for review with the Transportation Committees and the Iowa City Council. I appreciate your concern that an intensive evaluation of alterna- tives to the proposed project at this time may not be especially valuable to the Iowa DOT or local decision -makers. However, as indicated in our correspondence of June 22, 1976 certain basic indi- cators of comparitive feasibility for these alternatives would be extremely helpful. It was, I believe, the thinking of the Policy Committee and the Iowa City Council that this type of information was required in order to meet the stated objective of the Regional Planning Commission that alternatives be identified and evaluated. We are also very interested in the review of this project in Wash- ington County and the First Re -study Candidates project as it re- lates to the U. S. 218 corridor. Please keep us informed of your review of this project with Washington County officials and any meetings which may be scheduled. Because of the difficulty of obtaining adequate attendance at meetings scheduled during August 0 0 -z- in Iowa City, we do not anticipate any transportation committee meetings dealing with Freeway 518 in a substantive manner prior to early September.

JUL 21 1916 J pLA1�hV!A`G C0; Ilsslonr 1 After your original letter of June 22, 1976, and our ensuing telephone conversations regarding the 518 project in Washington and Johnson Counties, I had anticipated that after my July 15, 1976, scheduled meeting with the Washington County Board of Supervisors, I would be in a better position to respond to your various requests regarding this project. However, as you know from my call to your secretary early on July 15, 1976, our meeting had to be cancelled due to inclement flying conditions. Consequently, Ken McLaughlin forwarded by mail to the Washington County Board several items regarding alternative possibilities in Washington County; we had discussed these with them earlier on the same date that we met with the Supervisors in Johnson County. Until additional contact is made with Washington County, I still do not feel in a position to commit our activities to the detailed level of study which you are requesting. I have talked to Don Ward concerning Mr. Brandt's phone call and understand that they have furnished you traffic information. As you are aware, discussion has centered many times around two lane facilities west of Iowa City. Traffic information furnished to me from Angelo Stefani in our Urban Traffic Section, and obtained in conjunction with the Regional Planning Group, indi- cates that a facility to the west of Iowa City located as shown in alternative 5a, 5b, 6a or 6b will still attract inthe design year in excess of 5,000 cars a day, which we feel is sufficient to warrant four -lane right-of-way. Contrary to your belief, your request for two lane construction costs, right-of-way requirements, user costs and residential farm and business relocations and/or disruptions, would involve a detailed study effort, and one which does not presently seem appropriate in COMMISSIONERS DONALOII GARDNER STEPHEN GARST WILLIAM F.MCGRATH ANNPELLEGRENO R08E4T R.RIGLER L.

It would appear,in light of these traffic volumes previously developed as a result of our joint metro planning efforts, that the type of further detailed study which you are requesting would not be warranted. However, in an effort for consistency in study and analysis, as soon as additional word is received from Washington County and then discussed further with our staff, I will contact you regard- ing further study possibilities in the Iowa City area.

Recently, the International City Management Association has undertaken a project concerning manager evaluation. The first output from this project is the May 1976 issue of Public Mama eme�nt, enclosed, entitled "The Moment of Truth." I am sure youillif'nd this publication very interesting. Later in the year the International City Management Association intends to publish a handbook containing additional information on manager evaluation. Your response to this material certainly will be appreciated for it will be utilized in preparing materials for the Council to consider in undertaking the next evaluation of the City Manager.

The University representatives also acknowledged that their study on sewer service charges is only one part of the decision to be made on rate determination, and that the Veenstra and Kimm study would provide additional input as would other relevant data which is to be formulated. Mr. Mossman also indicated that the difference between what the University is now paying and what they would be paying under the rate structure set by the City will be set aside into a separate account starting August 1st. It was also indicated that the University anticipates completing their study by October, they anticipate negotiations to occur during the months of November and December, and they anticipate action by the Board of Regents in January. 2. Urban Renewal Property Transactions. Mr. Kraft gave a progress report on the transfer of land from the City to the University and indicated that the abstracts and the deed would be available to the University soon for purposes soon of examination. It is anticipated that the land will be transferred to the University sometime during the middle of this summer. k'3 El -z- • 3. Jefferson Building Vaults. The major problem relating to the Jefferson building vaults is one relating to the University of Iowa Facilities Corporation rather than that of the University of Iowa. It was also reported by Mr. Mossman that the letter sent by Neal Berlin to Universitthe y was referred to Darrell Wyrick and George Dane for response. For further questions and comments on this item, it was suggested that City representatives contact Mr. George Dane directly. 4. Bikeways Plan. It was reported that the application is still pending with the State Department of Transportation and that the deadline for submission of applications had been moved back. This will probably have the result of attracting additional applications. S• Street Signing. Mr. Gibson reported that the University is presently negotiating with the Iowa Department of Transportation on the signin for primary roads. It was also reported g P that virtually all of the signs that are going to be posted will be located on University rather than City property. 6. UMTA Grant- Mr. Strabala reported that minor amendments to the specifications need to be made and that he anticipated that the bid packets will be submitted within the next month. It was also reported that each vehicle to be Purchased must be inspected at the factory and must be driven by a representative of the City prior to the acceptance of each of the vehicles. 7. Traffic Planning. A memo on traffic planning for the west campus -Melrose area was drafted by the University on June 15. The memo was sent from -s - Bill Daigneau to James Brachtel, City Traffic Engineer. This essentially took the form of a problem definition statement and it also related to freeway S18 and the impact this proposed facility would have on traffic and circulation in this part of Iowa City. 8. Solid Waste Disposal. Mr. Plastino indicated that a draft recycling report will be submitted to the City Council in the near future. J. Melrose Traffic Signal.

Following is a listing of Urban Renewal activities carried out this week: a. Had warranty deeds prepared for the land sale to the University, reviewed the proposed form of deed with the University's attorney, secured corrections as noted in these discussions. b. Met with the Planning and Zoning Commission concerning their review of the Urban Renewal Plan. Reviewed the plan in detail with then. c. Provided relocation counseling to two commercial firms; one was filing a claim, the other making preparations to move. d. Received complaints and inspected the drainage problems on lot 101 - City owned and Urban Renewal property. Referred the problem to Public Works. e. Began a review of Urban Renewal delinquent rent procedures. f. Completed the Annual Relocation and Real Property Acquisition Report.

Met with representatives of the Iowa State Bank to initiate negotiations for sale of land to them located in block 101. h. Requested HUD clearance and form of contract information in order to Proceed with the contract with Zuchelli, Hunter and Associates. i. Sent Requests for Proposals to four appraisal firms, soliciting proposals to appraise all Urban Renewal property South of Burlington Street. j. Requested HUD concurrance with changes to their guideform contract for appraisal services, due to the nature of our project, and our needs at this time. Specifically, I requested several deletions relating to marketability studies, and related activities, not appropriate at this time. PG/ssw 11 1313 • INFORMAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION AUGUST 2, 1976 2:15 P.M. INFORMAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION, AUGUST 2, 1976, 2:15 P.M. COUNCILMEMBERS PRESENT: Vevera, Selzer, Balmer, Foster, Neuhauser. Mayor Neuhauser presiding. COUNCILMEMBERS ABSENT: deProsse, Perret STAFFMEMBERS PRESENT: Berlin, Hayek, Stolfus, Glaves, Vann, Kushnir, Geshweiler City Manager Neal Berlin introduced Don Zuchelli, President of Zuchelli, Hunter and Associates, Inc., the Urban Renewal con- sultant selected by the Staff. The selection process was re- viewed, and it was pointed out that the work program and sched- uling had been discussed. Mr. Zuchelli advised that he would be working with the staff and pointed out that the Joint Contract, a work scope program, would require functional tasks for Council to perform, as well as for him to perform. There will be two basic issues for Council in real estate negotiations, (1) those of a process nature, including check -point meetings, and (2) discussion of contractual negotiations in executive session. The checkpoints include (1) two months to come up with a dis- position procedure respecting both the Federal and State statutes, (2) after testing acceptability of the procedure under State statutes, (3) when moving toward releasing the appraisals for re -use, (4) when bidding document (or Prospectus) is ready to be issued, (5) at selection of preferred developer or developers, endorsed by Council. Until Council selects a developer, meet- ings will be in open session, then when negotiating with devel- opers, meetings will be in closed session. The final document is subject to public hearing. He advised that he would not be responsible for making the financial concessions that would have to be made, but would be acting as the Council's agent. After agreement on the disposition procedure, if there is no new environmental impact statement, and it does not have to go back through HUD, it will be eight months before the prospectus will be issued. The Lawrence_Halprin.Design firm will produce a schematic inter- pretation of the re -use plan in three dimensional detail, so that standard controls can be written. The Council determines use in sufficient detail to (1) design controls and (2) to instruct the appraisers to carry out re -use appraisals to estab- lish the highest and best use of the land. Halprin will also deal in the Design Review Committee area. Page 2 • 0 Council Discussion August 2, 1976 Zuchelli stated that the first issue was to all a the Plan is.

Councilman Balmer expressed concern that Council cannot do jus- tice to all areas. Management He suggested discussion on the Sto Ord, and the repeal of the $2 parkin rmwate g fine. The Page 3 Council Discussion August 2, 1976 City Manager advised that in September Council would be dis- cussing revenue sharing, and could discuss additional funds, in relation to the fine raise. Councilman Selzer suggested not adopting the Stormwater Manage- ment Ordinance until the enforcement documents have been pro- vided. The City Manager explained the reasoning behind using this process. It was pointed out that Council is setting the policy, and the discussion was concerning the rules and regu- lations on how the ordinance will be administered. The City Manager was asked to bring up the matter of changing the project from Riverside Drive to Rohret Road at the regular meeting. It was noted that there was no emergency in making the changes in the Municipal Campaign Financing law, but they will have to be made. Councilman Balmer stated that he thought that the criteria to set up the evaluation for the City Manager was good, also the suggestion that the City Manager evaluate the Council. Berlin asked for individual response from Council - members. After discussion of the sewer—chargesfor the University,_ and the University request for an escrow agreement, it was the consensus of the Council, as recommended by City Attorney Hayek, that the staff not spend time on the escrow agreement. The City Manager reported that the staff is working on procedure concerning the agreement regarding the Barker annexation.. AGENDA Councilman Selzer questioned Item #18, the contract for remodel- ing the.police_station, specifically concerning the ventilation in the _r_.ifle range. The City Manager explained that OSHA had questioned the ventilation in the Police pistol range, the Risk Management group questioned the ventilation at the Recreation rifle range. There was no detailed estimate of costs. If there was to be an outdoor range there would be two problems, winter weather and scheduling of shifts. The scope of the Sunset Street project was also questioned by Councilman Selzer. The Highway Commission previously indicated that the interconnection of Sunset Street with Highway #1 was part of the 518 Project. The Highway Department is trying to bring about the disconnection of those, so that they can pro- ceed with the acquisition of the right-of-way for the inter- connection of Hwy. #1, cul-de-sacing the end of Wylde Green Road. The City may have some financial commitment in conjunction with this, but it will be primarily a state highway project. Use of the $25,000 for another project was discussed. c■ 0 0 Page 4 Council Discussion August 2, 1976 The City Manager explained the legal requirement that the eligibility list for the firefighters be accepted by Council, noting that there were no replacements. Concerning the annexa- tion of 70 acres by Coralville, it was pointed out that this land is in the flood plain. -City Attorney -Hayek explained that the agreement formalized the understanding we have with Coralville concerning Iowa City's input on subdivision appli- cations within our area of annexation,.although it is within their two mile limit and vice versa. It also extends the agree- ment for ten years, and extends the definition of the boundaries. City Manager Berlin advised that he would answer the letter from First Federal Savings and Loan concerning Block_103/3 and indi- cate the process and timing of appraisals. It was moved by Foster, seconded by Vevera to adjourn to execu- tive session for discussion of (1) labor negotiation,_ (2) litiga- tion concerning Epsteins, and (3) appointment to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Roll call: Ayes: Balmer, Foster, Neu- hauser, Selzer, and Vevera. Motion carried, 5/0, deProsse and Perret absent. 4:25 P.M.
