Item No. 20 - PUBLIC HEARING ON FY83 PROPOSED CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND BUDGET.
Comment: For the past two years, we have not approved an annual Capital
Projects Budget but instead relied upon the five year Capital
Improvements Program (CIP) for budget authorization purposes.
This occurred due to the fact that beginning with FY32, the State
omitted the Project line item from its Operating Budget Certificate
Form. In reviewing the situation from a budget control stance,
it is preferable to establish a Capital Projects Budget annually
in addition to the five year CIP. This public hearing is being
held to hear comments for or against the proposed FY83 Capital
Projects Fund Budget. A memorandum from the Finance Director is
attached to the agenda.

Item No. 36 - CONSIDER A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING INCOME LIMITS FOR THE IOWA
CITY HOUSING AUTHORITY, PUBLIC HOUSiNG PROGRAM.
Comment: The Department of Housing and Urban Development regulations
require each housing authority to adopt, by resolution, maximum
income limits for admission to the public housing program. These
limits are adjusted each year and are based on 90 percent of

Item No. 37 - CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO REQUEST THAT HUD

163 REHABILITATION.
Comment: The Housing Authority submitted an application for 30 units of
Section 8 moderate rehabilitation on 6/30/81. HUD approval was
obtained 8/18/81 and the Annual. Contributions Contract was
approved effective 1/1/82. A total of $9,536 has been drawn
through 1/1/83 to cover administrative costs, etc. Extensive
efforts to implement the program have been unsuccessful. Owners
are reluctant to participate in the program for many reasons
which include (a) low rents permitted, (b) the low annual adjustment
factor, (c) the 15 year contract period, and (d) the extensive
paperwork involved. The staff feels any additional efforts would
be a waste of time and money and recommend that this project be
cancelled and
the
�allocation be returned to
to HUD.

ARTICLE II, TAXICABS, BY DELETING THEREFROM THE AUTHORITY CONFERRED
UPON THE CITY CLERK TO ISSUE A TEMPORARY DRIVING PERMIT TO TAXICAB
'31119 DRIVERS. (passed and adopted)
Comment: This amendment to the taxicab ordinance eliminates the issuance
of temporary driving permits to taxicab drivers while the applica-
tion for a regular permit is pending. Upon adoption of this
amendment to the ordinance regulating taxicabs and taxicab drivers,
temporary driving permits to the drivers will no longer be issued
and only one permit will then be issued after determining that
the driver meets the required qualifications.
