There are nine different sales outlets, 13 mobile home cgiirts! and approximately 2500 mobile homes in the Iowa City area, z For several years we owners of mobile homes have be,en.com plaining about the problems in various courts to civil and city organizations only to be told that we have no legal rigtitsto, fight unfair evictions, arbitrary rules, harrasment, fo;�ced "kickbacks" to managers, and other problems. We feel that mobile home owners, after investing anywhere �f _ from several thousand to $30.000 should seek some reassurance that once we place our investments on rented lots, we will not be asked to vacate that lot without ,just cause. We mobile home owners protest being subjected to the shims; of court managers, seeing our children harrassed for trivial; things, and living in constant fear of being evicted without cause and on sometimes as little as three-day notice, 2 We have compiled a growing list of 23 problems that we call to your attention. We need regulation of mobile home Courts to prevent abuses and unfair practices. lie would like to Have, reasonable rules. We would like to feel secure that j.usf because a gentleman has hair over his ears and wears a beard, he w ;ll1 nqt: be given the choice of cutting his hair and shaving his beard or, moving his mobile home in 30 days. Is this not discrimination? We would like rules that do not change from one day to the next. Suppose you moved into a court because they alI'owed pets but are told later that the rules have changed, no pets are any longer allowed and your dog you love would have to be put. to sleep or go to the animal shelter. The only alternative is to, move. The cost of moving a mobile home is not cheap, It costs, anywhere from $400 to $600 for a single -wide mobile home And.�up to $1500 for a double -wide. Children have been told when they may be out of their home, !� and when they may not. Lot renters have been told by the mznage-� ment that their invited company must leave the court j an.eml�az=. rassment to the mobile home owner when he was entertaining in an .; orderly manner. In the last two and one-half months managers have evicted six families. All of these people feel that they were evicted. unfairly. They have no legal recourse„ 3 We feel that one of the reasons problems exist is be'cau'se mobile homes are restricted by zoning to mobile home parks. City zoning in a sense gives the court: ovmers a monoply because the mobile home owners are required to place their mobile.hotrie's ; in a court or buya large g quantity of land and have it rezoti'�;d; ;i for mobile homes. As a result owners are powerless by being "zoned into courts" unless the City Council also 'protects mobile: i home owners against this unfair power of the court owners. created by zoning. It is unfortunate that parks abuse, their. power over the mobile home owners, but, never the less, our o#Ly long term freedon from abuses will be through City Council aG;C on I' on a mobile home court ordinance. Therefore, since pact o,f the problems have been caused by the zoning laws enacted by the Gity;; h we feel that the City Council has a responsibility to the:mobile home owners to correct the problems.

Rohif summarized his -recommendations noting that they were like directions to a contractor or an architect; they set the basic requirements for what he believes Iowa City should have for library facilities. He advised that primary public space sd;have r the first floor, and secondary public spice could be on e second be6nfloor. The building program should be first, then consideration of alsite. In answer to the Mayor's question concerning how he would decide where to' cut if bids came in too high after a bond issue•}vas authorized, Rohl.f stated that this had not ever happened to him. Generally prices had come in plus or minus 5% of the budget, which is where they should1be; ' they aren't, somebody hasn't done their job. He explained yo'u can if fG:t there by doing the right kind of things during the preliminary pians, during the working drawings, and by very good construction estimates. In their own construction project, they use the architect as 'the cdns;truc_ iton manager, up to the bid stage, and they hold him responsiijle.. If it comes in over bid, he know' he's got to redo the pians fo They have gone back before the bidding stage and trimmedr m'inin'g. , thin€is out. The City Manager pointed out that in the initial'discussion with the architects, they should understand clearly the parameters of ,' h t responsibility.

Rohlf advised that originally he had told the Library Board that if this was to be a consideration, he did not'want to be-��oi}q.ideted as a consultant. He did not recommend it, the costs would be enormous to bring it to any kind of efficiency level. Councilman Selzer a5,ked what. kind of controls Rohif would have working with the architect tg control costs. Rohif advised that his contract is finished. He was aked to make a program and make a building site rec:omnendation, anything other than that would await any action Council might take. The building h projected for 20 years growth.is Rohif pointed out that after a new library is built, the useage;wil'1 increase from 40 to 200%. Libraries are traffic generators, v6d ndn- competitors. He noted that expansion should be built in to the building. Mayor Neuhauser questioned whether or not the building could be�pl'anned' with offices or apartments on the second floor. He gave examples of different kinds of uses, but noted that laws are different indifferent states. Rohif explained that he had recommended the best site Lifter taking into consideration the rankings of some practicalities.

CIVIC CENTER COUNCIL CHAMBERS hlliMBIiRS PRESENT: Ogesen, Jakobsen, Cain, Vetter, Lehman, Blum MEMBER ABSENT: Kammermeyer STA!— F PRESENT: Schmeiser, Kushnir, Ryan, Child RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE CITY COUNCIL: I. To approve S-7633, Louis' First Subdivision on relimina final plat submitted by Norwood C. Louis II, subject to thefollowing(a) that the signatures from the utility of the location and dimension of the utilityeeasementsindi1withap inroval the subdivision be provided on the plat, (b) that a note indicating the contour interval is at Iowa City datum be provided, (c) that the proposed and existing wager and sewer service be shown on the plat, and (d) that plans be developed to insure proper storm water drainage Of the area. Z• TO recommend the following: The Planning and Zoning Commission hereby recommends to the City Council the approval of a contract between the City of Iowa City and Sasaki Associates, for Sasaki to serve as planners, organizers and managers of a concentrated Citizens Participation Program to the Comprehensive Plan procedure. , pursuant We believe this course of action to be proper and of the highest priority for the following reasons: a• The preliminary land use plan and zoning map portion of the new Comprehensive Plan is scheduled for completion during, this the first quarter of 1977• We feel that it is vital that We not be allowed to slip. b. Ile recognize the moral and legal requirement of having citizen input prior to the final drafting of these phases of the plan. c. 7'he degree of effort required to conduct the citizen input phase were it to be undertaken by the Planning Staff would put the comprehensive planning effort in direct competition for time availability with urban renewal planning, a condition which we believe would not be tolerable. d. Since HCDA finding would be used to support this phase of our planning effort, we must be sure that it is completed before these funds cease to be available. E5 0 -2- 0 e. Sasaki has done work for other groups in Iowa City and, therefore, is familiar with our community. We feel their proposal is practical and economically sound. Moreover, we have examined the results of similar projects undertaken by Sasaki in other cities and find their approaches •to closely parallel that approach formulated by the Comprehensive Plan Coordi- nating Committee some months ago. REQUESTS TO THE CITY MANAGER FOR INFORMATION OR STAFF ASSISTANCE: That the Legal Staff (1) review the proposed P$Z By -,:Laws,, and (2) specifically address the following matters; (a); length of time required for notice of public hearings,, (ll) what types of items require public hearings, and (c) 45 -day time limitations.

Date filed 8/26/76. 45 -day limitation: 10/10/76. Referred to Parks and Recreation Commission. Chairman Ogesen explained that the subject request had been referred to the Parks and Recreation Commission for their review and comment. Written commugi— cation from the Parks and Recreation Commission stated that the Commission voted (1) not to renew the lease with the Hayeks, (2) to recommend that the -application for change in zoning from R2 to R3 be denied, and (3) to have the sta,££ explofe the possibility of purchasing the Hayek property. I Mr. Wayne Begley, 804 Ronalds Street, submitted a petition bearing approximately 386 signatures to request denial of the rezoning application and to recommend that the City explore the possibility of purchasing the undeveloped portion of the Hayek tract as an addition to the existing Happy Hollow Park. Chairman Ogesen noted that a lady in the subject area had called him regarding the petition and indicated that there had been a misrepresentation of facts presented when she was asked to sign the petition. Derek Willard, 707 North Dodge, stated that he had signed the petition with no misinformation. His signature was meant to indicate opposition to the rezoning and to support the recommendation that the land be purchased by the City as part of happy Hollow Park. Dr. Albert Soucek, 801 Brown Street, also requested denial of the proposed rezoning and cautioned that development of the area would interfere with water retention plans. A motion was made by Jakobsen, seconded by Vetter, to recommend to the City Council approval of Z-7614, application submitted by Mr. and Mrs. Will J. Hayek for rezoning a tract of land, R2 to R3, located north of Brown Street and east of Dodge Street and adjoining Happy Hollow Playground. Commissioner Lehman pointed out that the Hayeks could build duplexes on the property under the existing R2 zoning. Don Schme,iser, Senior Planner, stated that it would be possible to build two duplexes on the property without any public hearing. Mr. Begley noted that any additional development would require action by the Board of Adjustment so that a road could be built. Commissioner Blum noted that approval of the rezoning would require an extra- ordinary majority vote of the City Council. Commissioner Cain expressed'hope that the City could buy the land. The motion failed by a 0-5 vote with Ogesen abstaining. S-7632. Preliminary Auditor's Plat #32, located between Industrial toad and Scott Boulevard south of CRIF,P RR ROW.

Tony Kushrlir, Assistant City Attorney, explained that the 66th General Assembly had .made some changes in Chapter 409 of the Iowa Code and new sections to Chapter 441 were written. The provisions of the new sections would not require the City's approval of an Auditor's Plat but would require approval by the County Auditor, Mr. Kushrkir said. Mr. Schraeiser indicated that a subdivision plat would have to.be sub, mitted before a building permit could be obtained. Mr. Kammerer stated that Mr. L. L. Pelling had indicated a willingness to deed to the City the necessary right-of-way of Scott Boulevard for an arterial street, Commissioner Jakobsen requested that this be expressed in writing. Mr. Wm. Sueppel, attorney, informed the Commission that there remain o orthree tracts of land that can be built upon without subdividing. Mr. queppelStated that in the past the City Manager and City Attorney have wanted an Auditor's Plan to be filed and approved by the City and he Felt it would be in the City's best interest to do so again. Chairman Ogesen suggested that the matter be deferred until the next P4Z meeting so that the legal ramifications can be more carefully researched. A motion was made by Blum, seconded by Jakobsen, to defer until the next P$Z Commission meeting consideration of S-7632, preliminary Auditor's Plat a32, located between Industrial Road and Scott Boulevard south of the GRl$P RR ROW. The motion carried unanimously. Commissioner Jakobsen stated that she felt the City should consider the Auditor's Plat for approval and expressed appreciation that the developer shared this opinion. S-7633. Louis' First Subdivision -- preliminary and final plat submitted by Norwood C. Louis II, Don Hoy, Attorney. Located at 500 Foster Road, Date filede 9/30/76. 4S -day limitation: 11/14/76. Don Hoy, attorney, stated that an agreement would be submitted for the construgtli�on of sidewalks. Mr. Schmeiser indicated that signatures from the .utility companies i, are needed on the plat and all driveways should be permanent, dust -free surfagQ.,., After further discussion, a motion was made by ,Jakobsen, seconded by Vetter, to recommend to the City Council approval of S-7633, Louis' First Subdivision -- preliminary and final plat submitted by Norwood C. Louis II, subject to the following contingencies: I • -5- 9 (1) that the ;ignaturos from the utility companies indicating approval of the location and dimension of the utility easements within the subdivision be provided on the plat, (2) that a note indicating the contour interval is at Iowa City datum be provided, (3) that the proposed and existing water and sewer service be shown on the plat, and (4) that plans be developed to insure proper storm water drainage of the area. The motion carried 5-0 with Blum abstaining. Commissioner Cain emphasized that the subject request had been approved on a contingency basis and that it is not the Commission's policy to consider requests which have been submitted less than 14 days before a P&Z Commission meeting. Chairman Ogesen stated that the Rules Subcommittee of the City .Council, Dennis Kraft and he had reviewed the proposed PF,Z By-laws and recommended that some changes be made in the By-laws. Commissioner Blum expressed concern that more adequate notice be given of Planning and Zoning Commission public hearings. A motion was made by Jakobsen, seconded by Blum, that the l.ega-1 Staff (1) review the proposed By-laws, and (2) specifically address the following matters: (a) length of time required for notice of public hearings, (b) what types of items require public hearings, and (c) 45 -day time limitations. The motion carried unanimously. Chairman Ogesen explained that because the Advance Planning Division is currently working on a new Zoning Ordinance, there was some feeling .that the work completed by the Current Planning Division regarding proposed zones and zoning amendments should be transferred to the Advance Planning Division to avoid duplication of work effort. A motion was made by Blum, seconded by Cain, to transfer to the Advance Planning Division the following proposed zones in regard to the new Zoning Ordinance: (1) University Zone (U); (2) Industrial Zones (1-1, I-2, 1-3); and (3) Mobile home Court Zone (RMH). 'fhe motion carried unanimously. A motion was made by Blum, seconded by Cain, to recommend the following to the City Council: The Planning and Zoning Commission hereby recommends to the City Council the approval of a contract between the City of Iowa City and Sasaki 0 -6- Associates, for Sasaki to serve as Planners, organizers and managers of a concentrated Citizens Participation Program, ursuant to the Co sive Plan procedure. P mpreheim- We believe this course of action to be proper and of the highest priorit:l for the following reasons: 1• The preliminary land use plan and zoning map portion of the new Comprehensive Plan is scheduled for completion during the first quarter of 1977. We feel that it is vital that this schedule not be allowed to slip. z• We recognize the moral and legal requirement of having citizen input prior to the final draftinl; of these phases of the plan. 3.

Since HCDA funding would be used to support this phase o.f our planning effort, we must be sure that it is completed before these funds cease to be available. 5.

We feel their proposal is and economically sound. practical Moreover, we have examined the results of similar projects undertaken by Sasaki in other cities and find their approaches to closel that approach formulated by the Comprehensive Co some months ago. omprehensive Plan CoordiY parallel g mmitLee The motion carried 5-0 with Lehman abstaining.

These) shows are designed to measure public sentiment on topics of local interest. The shows will focus on a single topic each week and will have guest moderators as well as committee members participating. It was decided that those shows should be advertised in the newspapers.

She pointed out that 0 r COMMITTEE ON COMMI]NITY NEEDS October 6, 1976 Page 2 the Committee is proposing to contract with another firm that would include a sample survey for early November, The question was raised as to whether or not $2000 of CCN funds could be used to help pay for this survey. A discussion followed in which the general consensus seemed to be that while it sounded good informally, the Committee would like to see a proposal before making a final committment. Bolnick also brought up the point that it would be better to have the people's ideas unencumbered. This could be accomplished by having two surveys (the first for their own ideas and the second with given perimeters). d.

But to authorize removal in less than 12 hours or without attempting to notify the owner is certainly over zealous. I hope no one has the misfortune to have car trouble in front of Hagen's TV on South Gilbert Street --especially at night and manually push their car against a wall out of the way even though not in a "parking space" (it is a bit difficult when pushing and steering by one's self). There is, of course, no parking allowed on four lane South Gilbert. In Jess than 12 hours (a little more than 9 hours overnight to be exact) the car has been moved (towed away) at the request of a Hagen's owner to the police. Consequently, if you should leave your car unauthorized, even on business property, it will be necessary to notify the police or call tree owner at his home at night or as soon as he arrives in the morning. A note placed on the windshield may somehow not remain. In fairness to all, perhaps something a bit more specific as to time and attempting to notify vehicle owner should be written into the towing ordinance. cc: Press Citizen Hagen's Furniture and TV Sincerely, Elaine Shepherd 606 Keokuk Court Iowa City, Iowa 52240.

Refuse collection in Iowa City provides for the pickup of loose leaves during the fall at designated times. Leaves in plastic bags are collected with the regular refuse collection. These collections eliminate the need for burning leaves; therefore, the legal staff has been asked to prepare an ordinance to ban leaf burning in Iowa City, Thank you for making your views know the future, please feel free to call Sin erely yours, ea "G` e L s City Manager Is CC: City COLMCiI City Clea me. m.

Plan A: This program provides for initiation of an extended evening service, with a relatively high level of service - half hour headways to approximately 9:00 p.m. and one hour headways to midnight. This program relates to the objective of making Iowa City an area in which it is possible to live without a private automobile. Plan B: This plan provides a combination of improvement options within the assumed budget limitation. Included is limited evening service (one hour headways until midnight), an elderly and handicapped service operating five days/week, and additiohal peak -hour service on one route of the Iowa City transit system. A relatively small budget is provided for marketing and promotion. An advantage of this plan is that it provides an opportunity to do something in each of the priority improvement areas identified in the recent up- date of the transit development program. A disadvantage is that by spreading the funds too thinly, the improvement pro- vided in each specific area may be less than optimal. For example, limited evening service with one hour headways may be far less of a success than providing evening service with a level of service more comparable to current service during the day. Plan C: This program provides for the initiation of a publicly, operated elderly and handicapped service as does Plan H, but provides more funds in order to provide additional operations,, for example seven days/week. Also, substantial increase in the provision of additional peak -hour service is included. The provision of additional capacity during the peak -hour is an improvement which is related to maximizing the impact of the public transportation system on the reduction of auto travel. demand (congestion, street widenings, parking requirements, etc.) I hope this summary of the transit improvement options open to the Council with the state transit assistance funds, is helpful. If the City Council feels it would be useful, the Transit Advisory Committee has asked that Brent. Bair and I be available to discuss this information at the time the City Council takes up consideration of the State Transit Assistance Funds application. As part of our study of the special transportation needs of the elderly and handicapped, the staff of the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission is currently preparing information dealing with various operational alternatives for the initiation of elderly and handicapped transportation service within the urban area. This report will include a review of alternative funding, operational, and organizational requirements for the expansion of elderly and handicapped service currently provided only in (3) rural Johnson Ccunty. As indicated in the discussion of either "Plan B" or "Plan C" the state transit assistance funds could be used to fund this extension of elderly and handicapped service. Our report will provide a specific proposal for review by the Council and our Subcommittee on the Special Transportation Needs of the Elderly and handicapped by October 25, 1976. Additionally, the preapplicati.on submitted by Johnson County for the Office of Human Development Coordination and Consolidation Demonstration Grant program, has been selected as one of the ten finalists nationally. Technical and consultant services will be provided by f[Ew in the development of a final application to be submitted by January 31, 1977. This grant could provide monies over a two-year period to finance administrative, planning, and programming costs required to integrate the nine existing providers of specialized transportation within JohnsonCounty. The staff of the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission will be working closely with the consultant and the elderly and handicapped sub- committee in the planning for and develop tion. ment of the final applica- Please let us know if you have any questions at this time.

A transfer of $30,631 has been made to the, Municipal Enterprise Fund from thePecpetual' Care Escrow Fund to,assist in providing Cemetery services. It has been determined that the,State code does not require a Perpetual Care Fund for municipal cemetery operations, and At is proposed that a portion of this fund be transferred each year.;, The balance in this fund is now $79,294. 2. Contrary to previous years a salary reserve equal to 2kT: of approved 1971 salaries has been allocated in each fggd. Previously salary reserves were budgeted in the Liquor'Profits'Fund'. 3. The balance in the Liquor Profits Fund is 'budgeted to be trandfeied to the General Fund to offset tax collection in that fund. 4. In 1971 the Council will be asked to approve the transfer of $235,000 from the Street Construction Fund to,AAsessiaent Construction io provide a revolving construction fund for 391A ptoject's. This transfer has 6aen given consideration in developing the 1972 budget. 5. Because of the need for capital improvements and projected debp service in the three revenue funds, amounts transfe'red.for administrative purposes in 1972 are not as large as, in previous years. Amounts tran- ferred represent actual administrative outlays', and no attempt, had been, made to abate taxes: 6. In proposing the '$200,000 in Park Bonds the following items we're delet- ed from approved expenditures in the Park & Recreation Fund for 1971'. Purchase of Southwest Park $50,000 (Carry over project) Park Road Project 35.000 a Total $85,000 The beginning 1972 balance reflects the addition of this $85,QTbo.

Baxter September 30, 1976 1 SCOPE OF SERVICES �F �i i The scope of services is divided into three phases consist- ent with the contract between ZHA and the City of Iowa City, Iowa.; References as to specific phases or tasks relate to tide ZHA c' tract with Iowa City. 11 on - PHASE I: DISPOSITION METHOD 1j Phase I calls for ZHA to prepare work schedule, assess the marketability of the ,current plant structure dispopsition ' tions, and recommend a site dispositionmethod. Iaithir;,Phaon,I, wei would expect Lawrence Halprin and Associate's (LHA) to revieia,the work schedule we formulate and to further review Iowa :City abjec tives as they relate to downtown renewal efforts and as portxaXed in documents such as the Urban Renewal! Plan, the Old Capitol . B,usi- f ness Center Company submission, and interviews with key -� :per city, �. sonnel. Based on this review and a visit, to Iowa City., LHA.-perd establish land use relationships between parcels and wand prepared to set forth design and development standard s,as required in later phases. PHASE II: DISPOSITION/REDEVELOPMENT PROGRAM { In Phase II, ZIIA has responsibility for the•follow:ing 1 tasks: (5) Prepare Project Development Program, (6) Di,mensi6n I� Reuse Plan, (7) Prepare Execution Schedule, (8) Undertake analysis, pr(? forma y , (9) Estimate public improvements costs, (10) jComplete financing program. Within Phase II, we would expect LFA towork with ZHA in developing a staging plan for public improyTementslcon- I sistent with the private development execution plan. T„he,staging I of public improvements would reflect the market findings.of:ZHA'§ work in Phase I,- the schedule of private. development as prepared by ZHA in Task 7, and downtown aestnetic considerationst. LHA would work with Iowa City staff in costing out.publ;i;c improvements within the plan and would work with both, city staff and ZETA in establishing a funding schedule for the city,.. Wik'hin Phase II, we would expect LHA to attend,. a'workshop to d!imenss:on, and coordinate public and private improvements over the length• oft bhe proposed development period. LHA would also set forth desired development controls includ- _ ing FAR controls, setback and height limitations, parkibg and, :open space requirements and similar guidelines to ensure health aii and safety Provisions and a high quality of development. These dards would be set sgan� forth in a memorandum format to ZHA. it ZUCHELLI, HUNTER•,Ei. ASSOCIATES, INC. Mr. Baxter PHASE III: DEVELOPER SELECTION September 30, 1;9176 Phase III points to the establishment of - develop controls, solicitation of developers, and selection of the a priate developer(s). Within this overall process, we would pect LHA to work with city staff and ZHA to develop design.c and controls to ensure the selected developers and the city create a vibrant downtown environment consistent with the;ob tives of the urban renewal program. The primary output of P. III would be a memo to ZHA indicating proposed design contro criteria ,:or evaluating potential developers, It &Iz :eria �I ild e. and, LHA would also assist in the preparation of solicitation doc- uments in a review and comment capacity. LHA might be required to participate in solicitations and othe#I il wise review developer responses and assist in the sel.eq,tion process,,, However, any participation in the solicitation and selection ,pro,- cess would be invoiced on a per diem basis; over and above the cur- rent contract and subject to approval of Iowa City. BUDGET, MEETINGS AND REPORTS The total budget for the above scope of services is $7,840-00 1 inclusive of all professional staff time, clerical;. time and: :expense. In addition, out-of-pocket expenses such as air travel,, hotel accommodations in Iowa City, Long-distance telephone calls, eaq., would be billed on an actual cost basis with the total hot to, exceed $1,900.00. LHA will invoice ZHA for reimbursement dire ctly. in. turn, ZHA will invoice Iowa City. LHA will be reimbursed for time, II and expenses after ZHA is reimbursed by Iowa City., IIi I� Lawrence Halprin and Associates will pa;ticipate ih At ,least une formal worxshup session antl will Fie available for a, additional meeting with the City Council or city staff representatives date to be determined later. Of course, LFIA would be expected :to � meet informally with ZHA and city staff members during .the course, of the study. 1i I. LHA would be responsible for at least four memoranda.

I , City of Iowa City MEMORANDUM DATE: October 22, 1976 TO: City Council FROM: Neal Berlin, City Manage RE: Financial Status of City The purpose of this memorandum is to provide detailed information concerning the financial position of the City, particularly the General Fund. This assessment is important because of: 1. The reduced year-end balance that bad been projected for, June 30, 1976. 2. The imposition of the tax lid by the Legislature and the. subsequent reduction by the Appeals Board of $300;000 property tax suppport for the budget. 3. Efforts instituted to reduce the level of spending -in the last half of FY 76. 4. Additional revenues which may accrue in FY '77 which were not included in the original Budget., S. Additional financial obligations which were not included in the FY 77 Budget. 6. Discussion of the increasing and/or decreasing, by GounGil action, of revenue sources. 7. The cash accounting system of the City which provides a.' somewhat limited view of the City's financial position., 8. The need to maintain a strong financial base for Nowa City government. As stated by Mr. Dave Johansen of McGladrey, Hansen; Dunn $ Co., the first pages of the FY 76 Financial Reportstate the financial position of the City of Iowa,City as accounted for on a cash basis, i.e. the receipts recorded when received, and Aisbursements recorded when paid. Comparison of budgeted and actual receipts, and budgeted and actual disbursements are reflected,on pages 'Z, 3, 4, and,5 of the report. 0 Financial Report -2- October 2231 Budget variances are due mainly to the fact that the Equipment Maintenance Facility and the Mass Transit Development. Project. were ,not begun in k Y 76:. Consequently, intergovernmental revenue; miscellaneous receipts, structure. improvements, and building expenditures; and equipment purchase expeoditut, were substantially below their budget projections. Pages 5-10 of the Financial Report summarize the activities of the I rious funds, programs and activities of the City of Iowa City for FY 76. As presented presennted in the summary statement of fund transactions on page 6, f}ie ending balance in the General Fund was $834;1,25. However, this balance, an other budgeted fund balances, do not reflect encumbrances or•caiiyover items. An encumbrance, for our purposes, is defined as an "obligation incurred by the City o Iowa City, but not expended by means of a cash outlay (outstandi purchase order)." Carr over items are those budget appropriations for which funds have not been o lb igated or encumbered in a past fiscal period, but are deemed necessary expenditures to be incurred :in the following fiscal,period (e.g. equipment purchases, construction projectsj. Attachment H1 provides total receipt, expenditure and ending balance estimat_a for all funds based on the final revised' budget. Attachment k;2 indicates the actual balance in the General Fund as of June 30, 1976. The General Fund balance increased significantly from earlier estimates: SOURCE BND• BALANCE .6/30/76 _ FY 77 Budget $314,955 FY 76 Budget (Revised) 294,799 Final Actual 573,306 Attachment k3 provides a detailed summary for allibudgeted fiords. As referred to in a memo of June 25, 1976;regatding FY 76 Budget AmeixBrgents, efforts in freezing personnel hiring and the lower cost of specific program areas, i.e. construction, had a positive effect; on fund balances. Also, overall, the General Fund received more property taxes, licenses and permits, and fines and forfeitures than almost Sprojected - Magistrate Court reO,U - gippap3 e parking fines were up by $35,000; construction rmits by. Sts pm; , sale of property, $35,000; and property tax by '30,000. Encumbered receipts reflected in the adjusted balance computations include. $12,000 carryover of general revenue sharing for. Human Services Funding;, $23,769 for landfill charges for FY 76 but not received until Ft 77 and $33,287 for library services of Johnson County for the past fiscal period. Most encumbered expenditures and carryover items'were.funded by suxplus,icas}i balances. The difference of ,$278,507 of unobligated or surplus Fund.balaace requires an adjustment for Road Use Tax ;supported activities and Airport balance. The adjusted surplus is then incrensed!to $311,775. i i. .. • ... .. � it 1 I Financial Report -3- October 22, 1976 , Year end balances plus projected first quarter receipts should he adequate to meet obligations due in the first quarter of the new fiscal dear. 'The. City of Iowa City was fortunate in having accumulated a balance,o£ approximately $500,000 frau which it could meet such operating expenditures as the July payroll, which amounted to approximately $395,,000." + , In reviewing amendments to the FY 77 Budget and,in development of the':FY 78 Budget, there are other additional important considerations. The FY 77 Budget is not currently balanced because.the State Appeals Board disallowed $300,000 .in property tax support for the budget. Cejtain additional revenues within the Genera:L Fund are available to balance tiie $300,000 difference. Because of the renewal of Revenue Sharing, it is expected that a payment of approximately $97,000 will be received in April, 1977. The payment was not included in the FY 77 Budget. As a result of legislative action, the City will begin receiving, State Mass Transit Operating Assistance in FY 77. the exact amount is not loiown at this time. It could range from $160,000 to $200,000. i In FY 76, certain functions of the Carmunity'Devel'Ment Dep3artment were charged to the HCDA Block Grant. This included services such as hous4i if inspection and the comprehensive plan. However, the actual fund transffers were not completed in FY 76. It is expected that these "make -u1 payments Ri will amount to approximately $100,000. �I I Therefore, the April 1977 revenue sharing payment, the Mass Transit Operating III Assistance and the "make-up" HCDA Payment could'be utilized to balance the p! budget. In accordance with previous recommendations, it would be preferable; to allocate the additional revenue sharing to capital rather than.opexating. expenses. The City Council will receive proposals frau the Transit Advisory It! Committee of the Regional Planning Commission drat recommend that all of the Mass Transit Operating Assistance be utilized for service eapansiofr and improvements. This is not recommended as a pIn4ent decis'ion.. 7lt least: $119,554 in Mass Transit Operating Assistance should be applied'to;the UI Mass Transportation function to offset the $119',554 in property 'tax reYenue: �. which was projected in the FY 77 Budget (See, FY 77 Budget, page 57). This !! allocation will partly substitute for the ;$300,000 in property tax support which was denied by the State Appeals Board, 71 The next priority for the use of Mass Transit Operating Assistance.should be the development of a program of transportation for the handicag'o, and. elderly which is not included in the FY 77 Budget.

Mi DATE: October 22, 1976 TO: City Council FROM: City Manager RE: As Listed 1. Dance Halls, Chapter 5.28 of the Municipal Code regulates dance halls. e o e provisions of that chapter is that a special police officer must be on duty to supervise a dance or else the Mayor must appoint op arer chaperones." It is increasingly difficult to find police officers whoiae interested in chaperoning dances, and the Police Chief and the Manager both agree that this provision is archaic. Therefore, the Legal Staff is pre- paring an ordinance for Council consideration at a future: date which Will repeal that section. 2. Hawkeye Court Apartments. Parks and Recreation Department is conducting an experimental'recreat on program in that area. This is based upon a request of the residents for some recreation activities. 3. Burnin o£ Leaves. The City this year and in years past has permitted the urning o. leaves. However, as the City picks up leaves and leaves are a. useful resource and because burning is an irritant for persons with various types of health conditions, I have asked the Legal Staff to investigate. an ordinance which would prohibit the burning of leaves. If you haveanm suggestions or comments in this matter, I would appreciate receiving 9. Letters to New Businesses. Enclosed is a letter which the Mayor is sending, to all new usinesses in the community. We think it is important that new businesses be aware of: the City government and where they can recq:Lve. service if they have a problem. 5. Coo erative Agreements. Lyle Seydel and Fredine Branson will be meeting on oven er 16— with the Cgralville City Council at an informal meeting to discuss cooperative agreements. Coralville appears to be in favor of such a cooperative agreement as long as their housing inspector inspects the: housing. On behalf of the City of Iowa City, we wish to welcome you and your new business enterprise to our community. We are confident you will enjoy, Iowa City and our excellent City services. Should you encounter any problems associated with the City we want you to know that we are avail to assist you.

This thirty -day training period will provide time for new board/commission members to acquire f-,imiliarity and understanding of the operations and procedures before assuming full authorty and responsibility. Vacancies will be announced sixty days before a term expires. The training period will begin and the announcement date will be thirty days before the actual term is effective (see example below). Appointment Notice of and Training Term Vacancy Period Bei Nov, 1 Dec. 1 Jan. 1 The chairpersons who have been contacted are very receptive to this approach. Appropriate revisions to the notice of vacancies, appointment letters„ and municipal directory will be made. The public and news media will be notified shortly. The plans are to implement the change on January 1, 1977. cc: City Clerk Chairpersons, Boards and Commissions iCity of Iowa Cl� MEMORANDUM DATE; October 22, 1976 TO: City Council FROM: City Manager NV RE: Nelson School1 For some years the Johnson County Association .For Retarded Citizens operated the Nelson School on Clark Street which provided a variety of servicesfOt handicapped adults. This year the building was sold because the pi'�ogram:and need for expansion have outgrown the site. The program temporarily'his been located in marginal rental quarters. For a number of months the Association has been seeking a new site,on which to build an improved facility. Discussions have been held with Gdrdwill con- cerning construction ad)acent to the Goodwill Building. However, This may not be feasible. As the nature of the program makes a site near Goodwill desirable, the Association began looking elsewhere in the neighborhood. It has been suggested that the Association discuss with the City the acquisition of the site which has been created by the relocation of First Avenue. A sketch of the site is attached. Council members may be informally contacted by Association Board m�mers:: Also, to preclude any misunderstanding, the Council should be aware that the Manager is very actively involved in the work of the Association for Retarded Citizens. p I T� •' 7S / I ss�-47f �Q 0 ti /4G.

City Attorney RE: Widening of Highway #218 Problem 6V Dear Neal: Slowly but surely we are proceeding to get the matter dorm on Highway #218 resolved. I wanted to bring you up to date on our negotiations and outline the steps that remain to be cmPletecl. 1. We need to modify our long term lease with the U.S. Army, Reserve for their training center. Dan Slothower has prepared a modified description for the new access road, and I have forwarded that to the Army Corps of Engineers in Qnaha. They have a'greed that they will draw up the modified lease and will return.it to us. It will then be necessary for us to change this leasiO by following the procedures of 364.7 of the Code, which requires two resolutions and a public hearing. 2. Don Slothower has also provided me with the:necess�ary engineering data to present to the Federal Aviation AdminiIstratian. in Kansas City eonoerning the property descriptions, and other matters. I have forwarded this material to Dir. Lewis Obe;kran of the F.A.A. in Kansas City for his approval. 3. The Council also needs to approve an agreement conoernin.g! the disposition of any funds accruing to -the City of IowalCity fi•cm the Iowa Department of Transportation. This agreement maX be approved by a simple resolution which I am now preparing. Once te!send the completed agreement to the F.A.A., and once the F.A.A. approves 1 our engineering data, they will then send us a letter of release author- izing us to go ahead and convey the property to the Iowa Department of Transportation. 4. Once we have their release and once we have croirpleted our, lease arrangements with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 'we Wili then be in a position to follow the procedures of Chapter 364.7 with. regard to actual conveyance of the property to the Iowa State Highway' Co mission. Once those resolutions are finalized,,we wily then be in a position to exchange checks with thelawa D.O:T. As;;we have discussed earlier, I believe that the money received from' the, Ica7a D.O.T. must be put back into the Airport for airport purposes. While we still have a ways to go on this project, we.are making definite progress. If you have any question's, please let, me know.

I can assure; you that blockipg,sid!e- walks and crosswalks is illegal and the ordinances relates i ing to these prohibitions are r.i€;orously enforced, when they come to our attention. Police service for this type j of violation is rather quickly furnished. {; Obviously, a police officer on patrol does not, nor' cannot be cognizant of every violation that occurs 0' every j; block in the many miles of streets he/she may patrol, There are a substantial number of matters and incidents including parking violations that he/she must be watch- ful for. However, we can and will take, appropriai~e enforce- ment action when violations are observed or reported to us_ Any time you observe a crosswalk c'r sidewalk bloekgd i+ by a parked car, please call 354-1800, report the violation I and the approximate location and as quickly as a police Officer is available, one will be dispatched to the sc"e. i In closing, I might add that it would be of great assistance to us if you would include your street address on any future written communication. It would be of considerable value to us in advising the patrol force to be especially watchful for violations in your block and neighborhood. Please be assured of the Police Department's oomplete cooperation in all matters of mutual interest. Sincerely, HARVEY p.

ATS Report N2 - Street, H is, Attached is the section from ATS Report 112 which summarizes the traffic service benefit evaluation o triose street and highway I projects related to the Highway 1 north corridor of I?wa City. 1 Included in this analysis are two alternative connections of Scott Boulevard from Highway 5 east -northerly to Interstat&,S 0, It should be noted that the 1995 traffic projections used in this analysis are based on anticipated travel demands generated; by the population and employment distributions forecasted im the Metro Land Use Plan. Two assumptions built into this plan ale of particular relevance to projected travel .on an improved Scott Boulevard: a) substantial increase in industrial empl,oy7gerit!,in, the southeast quadrant of the study area,, east of thetexistln'g I' industrial park area on Highway 6 east, and b) restriction of additional residential development to those built-up areas south of Rochester and west of Scott Boulevard, with the exception,of a small tract of land just east of Scott Boulevard bet weeb:G;ourt and Lower West Branch Road. Additionally, the traffic;ptoj,octions indicated for an improved Scott Boulevard are those attracted by a high grade bypass facility; an assumed travel speed :of 40;4S m:p was used for the computer analyses. The section ofA_ZS Report #2 which is attached, summarizes the. ' traffic service impact o t ese improvements, particul:arly,With { respect to future deficiencies within the Highway 1 north corridor i anticipated if no transportation improvements are implemented.. The general conclusion at this stage in the study, is that, an improved Scott Boulevard would have a moderate impact on reducing travel demand within the Highway l corridor°, however improvement of the Highway 1 north facilityis.still,;proba,tily required in the future. Also, the First Avenue extension proposal, is shown to have more of a traffic service;,impa'ct within the corridor than an improved Scott Boulevardproject. Next Sten: Evalua The next step in the Area Transportation Study is the identi- fication and evaluation of three transportation syst,emalter- :! natives - a high investment street plan alternative, a hi,•gh investment public transportation oriented altennativ,e, and,. an intermediate, "balanced" plan alternative. It is�.anti,cipatedl that both the First Avenue extension and an improvedi,scott, Illj Boulevard project will be included in at least -one of these alternatives. The evaluation of these alternatives will be summarized in ATS Report N3, and the .evaluation will. be broadened to include the effectiveness of proposed projects as+ they{, relate to four transportation objectives: a) the reduction III of existing and future traffic congestion/street deficiencies, 11 b) the minimization of undesirable through traffic ih res!,Aentia l areas, c) systems continuity including minimization of. trq:'l distances and user costs in terms of've'hicle and time savings, ;I and d) bypass and segregation of heavy conimerci'al traffic,. It is our objective to have _ATS Report N3 available for !j committee and local review by 7anuary r, 1977. We.anticipate that the consultant will be identifying the elements of alter- native plans within the next several weeks. I�am sure that input from you and your staff will be extremely helpful tat the consultant in the process of identifying the most appro- priate design and locational considerations to be included',in evaluation during this phase of the study with respect to Scott B1 d' Please let me know if additional information at this time will be of assistance to you.

The ca_ gnment suggests that the future deficiencies on Highway I East would displace some tra.ve9 to Corridor 5, and thereby aggravate the deficiencies on North Dubuque Street, Street and Hi hwa Network Improvements Five test network traffic Proposals were evaluated for their service benefit identified in for the Highway 1 Corridor.

Improvement and connection with Scott Boulevard from Highway 6 East to Rochester and its connection with the existing interchange of local Road and I-80 east of the urban area was not tested, but could be expected to provide approximately the same level of traffic relief to Corridor 6 as Pro- ject 2-7 in terms of total traffic diverted. Any of these three identified easterly bypass connec- tions would reduce truck traffic from the east. (amount not determined) which presently uses High- way 1 East, Gilbert Street or Highway 6 East.i:o and from the southeast Industrial Park Mall area. ®The extension of 1st Avenue from Rochester north to North Dodge in the vicinity of the I-80 interchange attracted approximately 8,600 vehicles per daft under, the Auto -Dominant travel forecast. This red.uged travel on Highway 1 East by approximately 5, 5(O ve- hicles per day. The approximately 12,500 vehicles per day remaining on Highway 1 East might be ccommo- dated by an improved two lane facility. The Is;t Ave,- nue extension shows substantial additional utilization of existing sections of 1st Avenue; south of Rochester (+6,400 vpd), south of Court (+5,100 vpd) and south of Muscatine (+2,200 vpd). The widening of Highway 1 East to four lanes 4etween the intersection of Governor and Dodge and just north of the interchange with I-80 would provide sufficient capacity within this corridor to accommodate fore- casted 1995 Auto -Dominant traffic. An extension of 7th Avenue from Rochester north to North Dodge was also incorporated in one of the Assiorment Test Networks. This was tested in con- junction with the connection of Sycamore and Tth Avenue in order to test the traffic service benefit of such a continuous north -south facility. Approxi mately 7,000 vehicles per day would be projected to use this connection, however, traffic would irxcrease: on existing residential sections of 7th Avenuej; souiih of Rochester (+5,600 vpd) and south of Court e+4,700 vpd). No relief of the Highway I Corridor east of the 7th Avenue connection would be achieved. 4-39 Riiu°vr; 0 Transit and NPA Improvements In order for transit of NPA alternatives to achieve substantial impact on travel within this corridor, it. will be necessary to address external -local travel. In addition to such para -transit programs of converting auto trips to car Pooling or van pooling or small community subscripti"on bus service, shuttle service to peripheral parking facil.it;ies may be considered in the transit element. The, decision of where to locate new peripheral parking facilities in this corridor would require consideration of various trade-offs. Close -in locations may offer more convenience for the centrally -oriented trip maker, while locations farther out may represent lower land costs. In the Highway 1 East Corridor, it may be possible to coordinate express shuttle service with local service to Office and other employment activities in the vicinity of the I-80 Interchange. 4-40 Considerations for Plan Alternatives Improving the road section of Highway I East, and thereby increasing its traffic carrying capacity, would appear to provide ample capacity for the Auto -Dominant level travel demand in this corridor. One Plan Alternative to be. identified in the next step of the study might include the Scott Boulevard bypass concept (Project 207 or its variatign) and/or the I�st Avenue extension (Project 3-5) for further evaluation. However, the initial estimate of the traffic carrying capacity of Highway I East should be reviewed for 3 t this essentially uninterrupted, rural roadway section.

Even greater anxiety, is attached to the likely costs in correcting already -built situations. This apprehension continues, due mostly to the. lack of research into the cost/benefit aspects of barrier -free construction.

The 1975 walkouts resulted in a loss of 2.2 million worl(days. Thompson, a recognized expert in this field. Mr. 'Thompson, a senior partner in the law firm of Thompson, Ogletree, and Deakins, of Greenville, S. C., and Atlanta, Ga., has repre- sented numerous public employers throughout the Southeast in em- ployee disputes. Thousands of state employees in Massachusetts recently went out. on strike. How do you view this Inci- dent? Although the strike itself lasted only three days, its impact on essen- tial services to the commonwealth was severe. For example, tons of raw sewage were poured into Boston Harbor because a treatment plant did not have the staffing to operate prop- erly. This is a vivid example of the damage that can result from a public sector strike. It also is a perfect illus- tration of what happens when you apply industry -style collective bar- gaining to the public sector, even, with strong prohibitions against strikes.' public employees cannot be per- mitted to disrupt the services of gov- ernment by strikes or otherwise. By the very nature, of their work, they hold a unique responsibility, and they should realize this when they accept the work, The taxpayers have a right to uninterrupted essential services paid for by their tax, dollars. Some contend that a federal law giving collective bargaining rights and the right to strike to state and local public employees would ret - duct, public sector walkouts because it would give the employees mor opportunity to be !ward on the! grievances.

Instead of a collective bairgaining mechanism, a system known as rnieet- and confer provides an laqultaible dis- cussion Esse for, resolving,contlicts on working conditions and Benefits.

The discus- sions are not binding on either party, They often result in a written memo- randum of understanding. What are the dlfferencsa between Collective bargaining and tabor vela. tions In the public and private on. lora? Briefly, the private employer has the authority when bargaining .to speak for the business and to r spond to economic demands in the -context of ani ability to produce on cocamit. marts and preserve the long-range health of the business. Unions bargaining in the Private Sector must take into account the ability of the.business to meet their demands and still succeed in the free marketplace. 'Furthermore, and perhaps most important, collective bargaining as we know it in the private sector re- quires, either the right, to strike or. compulsory arbitration to make it functional. Any experienced nego- tiator in the private sector will tell you this. On the other hand, all decisions in the public sector bargaining Process, are political in nature because of,who the employer is, who the employees, serve, and the source of the. euiploy- sea' wages and benefits.

Miller, Police Chief RE: Additional on Replacement of Police Radio Communication System I respectfully suggest that this proposal be submitted for Council review at the earliest possible date:, if Council approves of this method I should like to. enter a contract with the selected vendor ,-late in December., 19.76 or early in January, 1977. Under a lease/purchase l contract, payments would not start until approxi'mately two months after the installation of the equipment. With four to six months 'lead time necessary for delivery and installation, I anticipate: that the new fiscal year would be in effect prior to any but the initial payment,. It seems to me that it would be best if the�! greatest sum available was paid initially to reduce interest charges. :If my computations are correct it appears. the interest rate would be approximately 4.1%. If the inve$t= ment return to Iowa City on idle funds is maintained at the current 5 to 6% level, a substantial share of the interest accrued to the lease/purchase contract .could be offset by monies earned if we pay the contract re- quirements on a monthly basis. A related issue should be mentioned here. The pistol range is the largest area available for expansion of the Police Department facilities. Chief Keating and. I have agreed that the best location for the comiqunica'tion system, if purchased, would be where the Fire Department Office is presently located. If an alternative site for Police firing can be located, it appears that the present firing range could be properly lighted,_ venti. lated and remodeled for office space for the Detectivq,s,; evidence storage; etc. If this takes place, the Fire Department could take over at least three of the offices presently occupied by the Detective Division, and the present Fire Office used for the joint communication system. If you need further information on these ideas, I would, if able, be glad to supply it. o City of Mowa Cif MEMORANDUM— soft [)ATE. September 30, 197Q TO: Members of the City Council through Neal Berlin, City FROM: Harvey D. Miller, Police Chief MN, RE: Replacement of Police Radio Communication System. The radio communication system presently operated by the Iowa City Police Department: istechnically cbso= late. Repairs to the existing system are hard to per- form because of the difficulty in replacing aging parts. Transmission and reception effectiveness, dependent upon atmospheric conditions, is about 70 to 75% of total needed coverage. I respectfully suggest that the Iowa City Council enter a lease/purchase agreement for the early replacement of both the mobile and stationary radio communications equipment as a method to assure a 95% minimum.e'ffect- ive public safety coverage for the City of Iowa City. A total replacement of such equipment would cost an estimated $102,000, ($93,000 for mobile and stationary equipment and approximately $9,000 for a new antenna and aerial base). At the present time, the Police Department has accrued: slightly in excess of $28,000 in salary savingsioccasoned by unfilled positions. These positions will rer�.ai'n unfilled until such time as those people recru#ed for the jobs can be promptly sent to a mandatory State Law Enforcement Basic Training Class. I do not anticipate that this training, with the exception of one position., will be available before March, 1977. Consequently, by combining funds available at that date with pso- jetted overtime savings of $15,000 to $20,000, I'. anticipate, if you approve of this concept and the sub- sequent amendment of the operating budget, having $50,000 to $60,000 available for the initial payment and to incur additional payments for the remainiing, $42,000 'to $52,000, plus interest. The remaining payments would be spread over a sixty month period, with an, initial payment as stated, and subsequent payments to be on a monthly or annual basis, computed from -the ,date of delivery and installation. Depending on the amount of available funds, I anticipate monthly expenditures for the lease/purchase of the needed -equip- ment, with a $60,000 initial payment would amount to approxiniately $700.00 plus interest. If the contract, when it is advanced to you, is acceptable, I respectfully suggest payments be made ,dn a stated monthly basis. If that is your decision, the'baiapco of funds allocated on any fiscal year appropriation can be ins vested to partially offset the interest payments. At this time I can give you no firm estimate of the amounts of interest that would accrue to the lease/purchase. When a firm estimate of :the amounts on hand for the initial payment become available, the interest will be relatively easy to compute. The contract that will be presented to you, should you decide to pursue a lease/purchase plan, has a number of advantages. 1. Annual budgets will reflect a predictable fixed cost amount. Thus, true operating costs will be reflected in the budget. 2. The lease/purchase contract may be retired at any time the City desires to pay it off. 3. New equipment will not only effect a measureable increase in communication capabilities, but should substantivally re- duce present and future maintenance costs. 4, Equipment may be added as necessary with no increase in unit costs, although the total monthly payment must reflect the cost of added equipment. In short,'a hedge ag�iinst. rising costs is incorporated into the agreement. ldditidnal equipment, if needed, will reflect equipment costs- at the date of contract signing, and not acquisition date costs. 5. At the expiration of the lease/purcha,se agreement, the City would, at its option, either take title to the equipment;, or agree to extend the agreement for a specified period bf' lI time under existing terms. if the City opts to continue 'the contract, the contractor agrees to replace all existing equipment as installed, with new latest state of the art equipment at no increased cost to the; City. 0 6. If a decision is made to incorporate all City operated radia communications into a central communications centei,' the,teoh- { nological capability to establish the: center in the public safety communications center is available and can be, rather easily and inexpensively effected. i 7. "Crisis" replacement by spending very large amounts of mdney' on critical capital items on a "one-shot" basis can be alleviate 6. A mechanism for incorporating visual and manual control of fire and instrusion alarms will be part of the proposedisystemy thus allowing immediate operator and on -street these occurrences. reponse to 9. Better utilization of available space will be realized 7 within the Police 6 Fire Departments. Attached is a copy of the City Attorney's opinion regarding the legality of governmental lease/purchase agreements. i I respectfully suggest we move to acquire this vita All of the above is offered to inform you of a direction thak I lly neecletl capital equipment on an economically sound and system logical ii basis. If you agree, I shall prepare budget amendments .tit ferring personal services funds to the punt,rans later consideration. Should you concur woitherthisuggestiofor n ii. , I would anticipate the entering of the lease/purchase agreementii in late December, 1976. It is my understanding that tie, vendor would require four to six months before the equipment could be I� installed. if it I have full technical specifications and cost estimate$ available should you desire 'to see them. If you have any questions, I should, if able, be happy to respond to them. I City of Iowa C1;. UM MEMORAND DATE September 15, 1976 TO: Harvey D. Miller, Chief of Police FROM: Tony Kushnir, Asst. City Attorney RE: Lease/purchase Contracts The Police Department is interested in replacing present radio anami.cation system with new equipment. Total replace mnt cost for the entire undertaking is approximately $102,000. Motorola Corporation has made an offer of a five year lease/purchase proposal the main features of which are: A. City payments would be made monthly or annually. B. Any equipment subsequently added would be leased/purcTlased at the prevailing contract rate. C. At the end of the lease/pn-chase period .the City would' at its option, either own the equip:ient then in place -+or at the least - purchase arrangenipt is continued for;the, ensuing five year period, the cir,.pany would replace all currant equipment with the new, iate�# state of the art; equipment, and the arrangement would continue for, another five years at the original leaselpardiase price level. A. Can a lease/purchase contract be legally entexed into by Iowa Municipalities? B. Does a lease/purchase contract 1401ate the bidding Proce- dure as noted in the Iowa Code, or local practice? C. Must lease/purchase contracts, i:f legal, be open to all, vendors on an advertise for bid basis? A. Lease/purchase contracts are valid and may be legal -W entered into by Iowa Municipalities. B. Such agreements do not violate the bidding prooedures as stated in the Code of Iowa, 1975. C. The City of Iowa City may, in its discetion, advertise to, all vendors for bids concerning the lease/purchase uontract� although it is not required to do so. ,However, it. •-2- my recommendation that some type of bid procedure, whether formal or informal, be undertalzen so as to substantiate any questions that may arise in the future. DISCUSSION Division 6 of Chapter 384 of the Code of Iowa, 1975# sets forth the procedures and regulations concerning the letting of contracts by Iowa municipalities. Section 384.96 states th.atvtten the esti mated total cost of a public imprcivement exceeds the sun of'$1O'0004 the governing body shall advertise for sealed bids for E.he."prcvosed improvement by publishing a notice to bidders as provided in :1 Section 362.3. Public improvement as defined in Section 384-05111 1. means any building or construction work either, within or' without the corporate limits of a city. 'Thus from the. term of the code, the radio ccmTunication system would not require sealed bids or a. p&lishe4i notice to the bidders. Absent any other provisions in the Code.of'Icraajl restraining the City of Iowa City from entering into this type ' of contract, the City by virtue of its Home Rule Grant is 4u#Z_r* undeiq'!, the provisions of Chapter 364 of the Code of Iowa, 1975,j to, enter #to this type of lease/purchase agreement. As stated above? it is hot a requirement that the City secure bids from all vendors In orde4 to enter into a lease/purchase contract or,agreement but iX wouldlbe,my recommendation that the City use some type; of bidding prooedure; whether formal or informal prior to entering into this sort of;an agreement. The lowest bidder need not be -the only criteria but. other, considerations such as service and local representation canI;al so accounted for. If you have any questions in regard to this mem please &-n't hesitate to contact me. Tony LEGAL DIVISION DJRN(TI( E K•o..

The LeaguE of Iowa Nunicipiali.ties has taken, stepa to bring this matter to Lhe attention of, cities, and a number of respou:es have been received requesting more detailed informatign, This letter is intended to provide the needed information. As a result of problems eucounLere'd in using 197G census data for redistricting, efforts were begun several years ago by the. National. Conference of State Legislatures to work with the Consgs Bureau to bring about improvements in the 1980 census. These efforts culminated in passage by Congiess late last year of public Law 94-171, under which the Census. Bureau has now indicated to the states that it will offer two major improvements in the 198'0 census, which will facilitate legislative districting. These improvements are: I. Availability uf population counts for precincts, a unit not recognized by the 1970 census, if the required preparst.toas are completed by the states and their political subdivisions within the next few months. 2. An expanded and accelerated city block population program. The Census Liaison Commission, a temporary state body established by Senate rile 1267 of the 1976 Iowa General Ass,mbly and consisting of legislative leaders of both parties and, representatives of the Governor and of both politilial party organizations, h,s authorized the Legislative Service Bureau to, submit to the Census Bureau maps identifying precincts houAQXies: within some of the state's cities. This will not preclude, ul From taking advantage of LK improved city block program, but does keep' our options open for the time being and will alfard us .Some Page 2 • (I 'j' .1 protection if for any reason the improved cit black g YF1 delayed or fails to meet its goals. y Pro rant ir� Identifying Precincts for 1980 Census The Census Liaison Commission has directed that t,hg1'I II' Legislative Service Bureau arrange to have submitted to the dens:usj�� l Bureau maps indicating precinct boundaries within each of thy,"1 cities in Iowa which is large enough that it is likely -tp b4� divided in forming representative districts after the 19$0 census,, This means all cities having; populations of approximately 25,000. t4 30,000 or more. In addition, we will try to identify for the; j Census Bureau precincts in those cities of lesser population wfiich�l are immediately adjacent to such cities, and in any other 'Qltyl' which so desires, within the limits of time and ability to have them necessary map properly prepared. In so doing, we plan to proceed as follows, 'Haps': I developed by the Transportation luventory Divisiotl of the Jowa Department of Transportation will. be obtained and sent to the'. j respective cities together with the Census Bureau's requirements. 11 for identifying precinct boundaries. Each city will be aslged to,'I have the city clerk, city engineer or other appropriate person draw•;: precinct lines on the map add a. written certification of the' map's accuracy, and return it to the Legislative Serviee Bureau, Ile will then deliver the maps to the. Census Bureau. This delivery;; must be completed by April 1, 1977, so the procedure should be! expedited as much as reasonably possible. i "Proposed Precinct" Option unavailable We are aware that in some cities the requirements of Iowan law, and the nature of the units for which 1970 census pop'ulatianl' data was certified for most cities of under 50,000 P.Qpuhatian,1� combined to force the adoption by the city of pre'einc,t b,ouada.ries considered less than ideal. To try to avoid forcing these cities,ll to submit such precinct boundaries to the Census Bureau, section 2 j! of S. F. 1267 was meant to authorize cities to draw prop used! precinct boundaries. The intent was that these propased precinct jj, boundaries then be submitted to the Census; Bureau in lieu of the I boundary actually currently in effect, for purposes of 14'80 census U tabulations. A few cities have already :indicated interest in a utilizing that procedure. Unfortunately, we have just been informed in a letter } from the Assistant Director of the Buren of the Census that the ii Bureau has concluded that it cannot accept proposed precincts, as contemplated by section 2 of Senate File 1267, because they would {i not constitute "precincts legally in effect" withinslur mean;•ng 4f the applicable federal law. Therefore, it is mandatory, that zie,use currently existing precinct lines in each city for which we submit iE precinct boundaries to the Census Bureau, I • I I •, ji jPage 3 i. If your city strongly objects to submission of the it Present precinct boundaries to the Census Bureau as a basis forj tabulation of the 1980 census, please advise me of that f'aet at your earliest- convenience. Expanded City Block Pro ram In the 1970 decennial census, population was tabulated On, III a block -by -block basis in the urbanized portion of each standard metropolitan statistical area. A standard metropolitan P r mor statistical area is, essentially, a central city of 50,,000 or more gopu.11ation and its surrounding suburbs or unincorporated urbanized area,: addition, the Census Bureau offered a "contract block" In program 1It, cities in the 25,000-50,000 population or range wb4lch wanted population data so tabulated and were walling to pay for it - Unfortunately, the 1970 census population data by city block. tris not generally available to users until after the time when legislative districting must constitutionally be completed in Iowa, 'I For 1980, the Census Bureau has indicated that it Plans, to tabulate population on a block -by -block basis for each c.ity.of over 10,000 population. In addition, it intends to del iver block 11' data to the states by early 1981, simultaneously With daa;� for larger population units. These improvements are contingea.t upon a sufficient appropriation by Congress, but. Census Bureau Personnel state that all indications to date are that the needed ftkAds. will j be forthcoming. Anticipating the continuation in 1980 of generally the ) �; same policies with respect to block population data as crere I� followed in 1970, the General Assembly a few years ago passed what is now section 49.5(2) of the Code, requiring cities of over 2$,.000 to contract for black census data if they would not o'therwis:e receive it. Should the Census Bureau's plans for an expanded tplock Il " census data program in 1980 materialize, as now seems likely, this y l requirement will automatically have been met. Another aspect of the expanded block data effort is a ii contract block program for cities of under 10,000 populatio.n.• Th,l Census Bureau has indicated that it will announce more detalls .of I; this contract block program before the end of this year. If ybur city is in the under 10,000 population category and would' be interested in contracting with the Census Bureau to have population tabulated by city blocks in 1980, please let me know. I' shall txy to see that the information on the 1980 contract blot,k program reaches you as early as possible. If you have additional questions about any o.f the foregoing matters, please contact me. Our intent is to prepare to utilize the planned improvements in the 1980 census so as. to facilitate the legislative redistricting which will, be necesisary after that census, while creating as little additionaa work fo.r your city as possible.

Of certificates not issued, the major deficiencies were no handrails, broken glass and lack of elects;cat outlets in each room. i Seydel commented that Chapter 9.30.5 had been rewritten and a public hearing held last June. Because of the turmoil created, ip has been completely rewritten so that it is more readable by the average ci;ii.zen and the single-family owner occupied dwellings have been ecluded;£roq cyclical inspection. A number of exemptions have been prov ded, ?7ere is a special chapter for single-family, owner -occupied units that ;%fill ,JJ� eliminate several requirements if that family has been living in the unit. This will eliminate the provision for two outlets (fi?r,the g�randma that doesn't need them). It still contains authorization to inspect a, j single-family, owner -occupied dwelling upon receipt of a complaint :or on the occupants request. It also contains a requirement for an inspection li, prior to the sale or transfer of that property.

He pointed out that this is an administrative procedure and does not belong in the Code. There should be a separate chapter, dealing with tenant -landlord relationships such as rent withhol.ding�, repair by tenant and reprisal evictions„ It was noted that the City can be a complainant. Complainants names are not public records and are confidential. Most complaints are for garbage, weeds and brgken windows. !� After the next Housing Commission meeting on November 10th, recommendations,!' will be sent to Council. The City Manager stated that the legal staff is investigating the legal responsibility of the City on investigations.. Detroit, University City of Missouri and Madison Heights in Michigan have the same type of inspection requirement. A house rented; out far the summer is considered a rental unit, and will be inspected. ;Q fee will be charged on inspection for sale property. Seydel advised that there will be, paid by the owner. If the program must be self- supporting, the rental permit rates would have to change. Presently .the charge is $10.00 per building, $1.00 per unit. The City Manager staled that when the HCDA money runs out, the program would not be a,5similated �! . automatically in the City budget, but alternatives would be looked at; from the program side and the revenue side. HOUSING FOR THE ELDERLY it Community Development Director Dennis Kraft was present. He jointed out is that while judging entries for the Community Betterment program iri cities of 1,000/2,000 category, he found that a remarkable number of things are being done for the elderly in housing and social program, ii II_ i P Pa&e 4 Most used federal money and volunta { me- Administration program and some HUD pry CongxegatQ meals,,well_. elderly clinics had been combined with a facility or in.a facility adjacent to the housing, Housing Coordinator Seydel commented that Iowa City's Section a housing program is not progressing well. This is happening all oyer .the count with fair market rent being the greatest hindrance, as units within the price range simply cannot be found in Iowa City. The cooperative agree- !I ment with Coraville will be discussed on November 16th with the Coralyilli Council. At the present time we have 110 units in Section 8, andl94 units in the Section 23 Program. Looking ahead to what might be expected in the next year or so, he iii outlined three programs funded, and explained options idth the irograits (1) Section 8 Programs--he advised not seeking additional exis`,iiig units because of the fair market rent limitations, (2) 202 Funcliag and! �3) l Public Housing. Detailed information of the programs will be sentt6 ii Council in the packet of October 29th concerning each of t-nese prggrams, ! Councilman Foster asked if any non-profit organizations have been interest! in programs, and Seydel advised that he had spoken to representatives.,of 11 Systems Unlimited and to Reverend Welsh and Msr. Madsen. Mayor N\ uhaysexI' said she would be interested in seeing a rough estimate ok bow much the. 11 senior citizen center part of that, the public use space, V?hat that g would cost. She did not think all functions for senior citizens should. !I be relegated to one building, {j Seydel advised that the census data, using income as a guide, shows that I Iowa City could use 900 units for elderly. He has 58 applications for Autumn Park, along with 112 persons in the present Iowa City progrvmnha !i will be offered the opportunity. The City Manager commented that he had discussed elderly housing with Zuchelli, but when he comeson the 1st, ! Zuchelli will give a brief update on where the program stands and review 1! with staff and Council the kinds of considerations and concerns Couincil I will be dealing with down the road. REHAB ELIGIBILITY AREAS i; Community Development Director Dennis Kraft and Redevelopment Pro Coordinator Julie Vann were present to present the criteria used to determine the geographic area for the housing rehab programa as,discutssed it with the consultant Duke Kucharzak. Council discussed Optign =1, ozue ;i large area South of Dlarket, Fiast of Gilbert, North of the railroad-tracks and West of Fifth Avenue, Muscatine Avenue and Ralston Creek, and,t? ion. #2 A, South of Market, East of Gilbert, North of the railroad tracks and i! West of Fifth Avenue and Muscatine Avenue. Vann explained that the City will not service houses within a block from Ralston Creek (in flood plain) this year. Rundell Street will also be .considered next year, �- Councilman Vevera favored Option 1. Cauncilmembers Foster, Selier; deProsse and Balmer favored Option 2. The Mayor advised the staiN that there was a general consensus to use Option 2, A and B. 0 FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE CITY ve Mel Jones presentptforldiscussiont The Mayor poin'tednoitller thatDthe1City Manager had listed 4 items on which he wanted an indication from Council ,on what they want to-do. The first item was parking tickets, The City Manager noted a correction for page 4, paragraph 3 of the October 224' memo,, This paragraph had been reworded to make it clearer. He advised that there had been no answer for the legal department concerning the legality of charging $1,00 for parking fine for the first 24 hours, and xaising the fine after that, The Mayor asked for information on fro time allowed on some parking meters. The City Manager pointed out the consensus of the Council to consider this, if it is determined that it is legal. Increased administrative process and costs were discussed. City Manager Berlin called attention to the fact that in consIderation. of revenues for FY 77, Council had selected the parking fine as,one'of the alternatives to be a revenue source. The other alternatilfe was to charge for trash pickup, The City Manager asked Council to establish) a priority, asking if it was more important for the staff to continue tb i work on the budget for FY 78, or is it more important that they go back and undertake a study of what financial revenue alternatives are available to balance the FY 77 budget. REM\T EE SHARING The City Manager stated that in the FY 77 budget time, extensibn.of revenue sharing was not resolved. Now that it is approved, the April 77 payment, $97,000.00 should be allocated. As the budget was prepared, staff stated their concern on the reliance in -the operating budget on sources of revenue such as revenue sharing, and suggested that we should look harder at applying those revenues to non-recurringpexpanses of the City, particularly capital outlay. This payment beconne a.factot in balancing the FY 77 budget as a result of the decision made.;by' the Appeals Board, Councilwoman deProsse advised that she did not object ,to use of some property tax as a subsidy for mass transit. The Mayor n9t04 that in the future Council would have to come to grips on how 10 finatice mass transit system. She was not in agreement to use the operaiting subsidy (municipal transit assistance) to maintain the sane, level of service, but to expand service. The City Manager commented that the Council had, two options thee, 1) -to go back to the staff and say Council wants you to come up with an additional source of revenue for the current fiscal year that would allow us to apply this to improved transit service, or 2) say that we ate going to cut out an expenditure of $100,00o in the budget in some other area so, that we can improve transit service. After further discussion -the Mayor commented that the only decision Council had reached was to put all of the revenue sharing :into capital expenditures and keep it out o£ operating expenditures, but they were not sure how to do it.
