GCLMAII Mayor and City Council Members Civic Center L 410 East Washington Street Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mayor and Council Members: This letter is being written on behalf of the owners of two separate parcels of property located South of Highway #1 ; and Nosth of the Airport property in South Iowa City. The I new Proposed Zoning Ordinance classifies their respective 1 properties as CC -2 when in fact the uses to which their properties have been devoted are nonconforming uses within 11 the CC -2 Zone. t The owners of the properties involved are Commercial 3 ! Decorators of Iowa City, Inc, and Mrs. F. M. Barker respectively i and there are adjoining properties which would also be non- t conforming in the CC -2 Zone. I, I have discussed this matter with Don Schmeiser and i I believe he concurs that it would be appropriate for the I Council to consider a CI -1 Zone for this area which would ; not only bring the proposed zoning into Line with existing s uses but would also provide a transition area between the CC -2 Zone and I-1 Zone which abutts the proposed CC -2 Zone. Your consideration of this proposed zoning modification "S would be accordingly sincerely appreciated.

VEJ V 2 RE: Sewage Treatment System Dear Mayor Mary Neuhauser and Council Members: After the recent trip to Europe in an effort to attract economic development to the Iowa City area, we all learned that economic development and growth is a long process. It is extremely im- portant that a number of minimum items be in place, before our "Extras" like quality education, safe and clean living environ- ment and developed transportations will be considered. One of these minimums is a effective and efficient sewage treatment system, both for the present and the future. It is understood that one of the priorities of the 1983 Council is the beginning of a plan to empliment anew sewage system for Iowa City. We are encouraged that the City Council recognizes this problem, and is working to find a solution. However, we are concerned about the speed with which this decision will be made and the limited number of possible solutions considered. We agree that the sewage system is a priority item and one which should be addressed in a careful and considered manner. The City Council is in the middle of the adoption of a comprehensive zoning ordinance, which is taking your attention and time. The sewage system is as important of a matter in the future of Iowa City and we request that you give it equal attention and consideration. Therefore, we request that you delay making any decisions on any plan until time is available for indepth consideration. We will be reviewing some of the proposed solutions in the near future, and hope to develop a position on the solutions. As the economic de- velopment is a long term process, we feel delaying a decision even up to six months is worth the wait for the long-term benefits our community will receive. sin rel 13tterma resident Greater Iowa City Area Chamber of Commerce LB;jt Greater Iowa City Arca Chamber of Commerce P.O.

I am writing as a private citizen to register my disapproval of allowing the new hotel to occupy any portion of Dubuque Street and to request that the City pursue getting an injunc- tion to stop the builder before further construction occurs. From the very beginning, it was stated in the f media that the new hotel and department store would be constructed on the square block next.to the Lenoch and Cilek store. To my knowledge there was ruction o DubuqueStreetitself. Now the tbuilder chas texcavatednthe street and will proceed with his building under implied consent unless there is sufficient citizen protest to stop him. This building will, if permitted, create a barrier to the pedestrian mall that has come to be the centerpiece of downtown Iowa City. I realize that federal funding is involved and there is a rush to get the funding details final- ized before Congress can change the guidelines but I alan realize that this ih the time to stop construction that does not comply with the original specifications. Please get an injunction to stop this action before the builder proceeds to erect a building that will destroy the openness and beauty of our little downtown. Thank you for your consideration.

As I have told you previously, the tower could result in some minor inconveniences to a few airplane flights during some weather conditions. It is likely that most of those inconveniences would occur only.during the few months it would take to install and commission an additional. NDB. (a navigational aid), which we have proposed to fund. "It is the gift of the money for that NDB that we now ask you'. to accept for improvement of the Airport. More specifically, the Television Development Association of Iowa gift would be $10,000 to be used for purchasing and installing an NDB placed so that it would serve an instrument approach to Runway 6 that would be clear of the tower area, We would make the gift in a series of payments, each no more than five days prior to the dates that payments are due for the NDB equipment and the services necessary for its installation (excluding services that can be provided by Airport personnel). Other than the use of the gift as previously described, the only contingency would be that the Airport management make all necessary applications for the NDB and the instrument approach no later than December 31, 1983,and complete installation and commissioning within one year. ' Besides permitting the construction of the television station, this beacon also would result in operational R improvements to the Airport. At the least, the NDB would I improve the instrument approach to Runway 6 by making it more direct to the runway's centerline. Properly placed, it also could provide better instrument landing minimums I I ,� ?73 ._ E ROFUND DYMICR¢LAB PIDS • DES MOINES Iowa City City Council November 21, 1983 Page 2 than currently are available.

Jack Sasser Manager, Airports Division Federal Aviation Administration r 601 E. 12th Street \ Kansas City, MO 64106 Dear Mr. Sasser: We are applicants for permission from the Federal Communications Commission to build Iowa City's first commercial televison station. The station also would serve as the base of operations and programming for a network that could serve up to 90 percent of Iowa's Population. The President of the Greater Iowa City Chamber o£ Commerce informed you in an October 11 letter of the importance of our communications project to the Iowa City area. Our efforts to find a site for the multi -use 2,000 -foot communications tower from which the station would transmit if have been underway for more than a year. Because of aeronautical considerations, there are only two feasible areas for the tower: one approximately 13 N.M. west of the threshold of Iowa City Rwy 6• the other 10 N.M. from the threshold of Rwy 24. Because pthe la prow " to Rwy 24 would be more frequently used, it would seem that the site to the west would impact the airport less. j In fact, the west site has been thoroughly examined under Aeronautical Study No. 83 -ACE -573 -OE, which determined it to be a hazard primarily because of its effect on Proposed Iowa City NDB Rwy 6. Informal analysis indicates t that there is little doubt that an additional NDB would permit an i.nsrument approach procedure to Rwy 6 that would be an improvement over the currently -proposed NDB Rwy 6, while not conflicting with the proposed tower. If the additional NDB were properly placed off -airport, it appears that the landing minimums to Rwy 6 would be better than are available from any other instrument approach to Iowa City. This certainly would result in a substantial improvement in capabilities at the Airport. The Iowa City Municipal Airport COrMission on November 17 rejected our offer to pay substantially all the costs of purchasing and installing an additional NDB. We believe that this rejection was based primarily upon the traditional Pilot concern about tall towers, although it long has been the position of your agency that communications towers of that height are presumed to be non -hazardous if properly Positioned. 3a 73 `I ..._ .

It would appear to us that an improvement in the Airport such as the additonal NDB should work to the Airport's favor in your consideration of removing its non-compliance status. We do not wish to place the city in a position of choosing between a viable future for its Airport and its first commercial television station. If the matter of accommodating the tower as proposed will have any impact on the issue of compliance vs non-compliance, would you please inform us at once? We need to have a clear statement from the FAA that the Airport's efforts to regain its funding either will orwillnot be harmed by the tower's accommodation - � i thru installation of the additional NDB as proposed.
