Dear Mayor Neuhauser;
I am writing to you concerning appointments made by the
City Council to various boards and commissions, I have applied
In the past five years to the Planning and Zoning Commission
and the Board of Examiners of Plumbera, as the licensed
Journeyman and most recently as representative of the public,
I understand that the City Council has voted to readvertise
the vacancy of public representative of the Board of Examiners
of Plumbers. I must assume that I will not be considered for
this board. I would like to know what one must do to be
considered to serve on the various boards and commissions,
besides applying. I have been told by various state legisla.
tors and attorneys that Iowa City Is the most corrupt city
In the State of Iowa, and payoffs are widespread. I will say
that the Iowa City Plumbing Code has the dubious distinction
of being the only City in the United States of America that
allows plumbing that is a health hazard. I have also been
told that plumbing licenses have been "bought". I hope that
You will inform me as to the requirements of being considered
to the va/lous boards and commissions,
Also I would like to express the vehement opposition that 1
we, organized labor, have concerning Councilmen Perrot's
stand on the proposed addition to Mercy Hospital. Where is
Councilman Parrot's concern for the citizens of Iowa City
that live near the airport and the University of Iowa
Hospital and Clinics 7 Considering the 52% unemployment rate
of construction workers, I believe that the proposed Mercy
Hospital addition is a must for the City of Iowa City,
I would like to thankyou for your time and consideration.
I really appreciate it. I hope to hear from you in the near
future.
Sincerely;
i

Ms. Mary Neuhauser, Mayor
Civic Center
410 East Washington
Iowa City, IA 52240
Dear Ms. Neuhauser:
R E C E! V EE D ?.'." 1 1982
The Hawkeye Area Community Action Program, Inc., is requesting assistance
in meeting the overhead cost of $20,791.00 to help continue the operation
and services provided by the Johnson County HACAP Neighborhood Center for
Fiscal Year 1983. October 1. 1982 to September 30, 1983. These funds
would be used as follows:
Center Supervisor Salary and Fringe $13,706.00
Center Rental 4,185.00
Utilities 1,300.00
Telephone Expenses 1,600.00
20,791.00
In past years, we have been able to provide funds for center operations
out of Community Services Administration Funds. For. Fiscal -Year 1982,
we sustained a 46 percent budget cut. The President's 1983 budget would
reduce these funds to 18 percent of 1981 levels--- an 82 percent cut over
two years. We are being forced to seek local hard match monies in order
to sustain services in our neighborhood centers during Fiscal Year '83.
Our top priority in cutting funds and positions has been to maintain service
in our outreach centers, since this is the primary delivery vehicle for
all other HACAP services. Many steps have been taken to pare budgets
to the bone, including a 40 percent cut in administrative staff.
Although federal funds are used to pay additional staff to do specific
jobs in Johnson County, we feel it is extremely important to have a super-
visor that can be free to work on any and all center problems and procedures
without being specifically tied to any one program. Minimum service.
requirements to a county include a center and a center supervisor.
HACAP services provided to low-income and elderly persons include: Neigh-
borhood Services, Weatherization, Head Start, Congregate Meals, Youth and
Manpower programs, the Personal Energy Project, Heating Assistance programs,
Community Food and Nutrition, Food Banks, and Housing Counseling. Persons
needing help are referred to all local and area resources available.

In addition, space is provided in our office for the Mayor's Youth Program.
The mission of HACAP is to Provide help and resources to low-income persons
that will help them towards self-sufficiency, We have been able to help
i many persons become tax -paying citizens rather than remaining a permanent
case in the welfare system. Many young persons have been able to receive
job training and skills which have enabled them to break the generational
cycle of poverty. Elderly services have helped elderly remain in their
homes instead of entering nursing homes where they would soon use all
resources and have to be placed on county assistance.
Monies are also provided throuqh HACAP administered resources which reduce
the burden on county poor funds.
According to 1970 census figures, 8548 persons in Johnson County have
incomes which fall under poverty guidelines. Iowa has one of the highest
elderly population per capita in the nation. Census statistics cite 1,086
persons,or 21.6 percent of the elderly population in Johnson County, with
incomes under poverty guidelines.
Most recent HACAP statistics from the fourth quarter, October 1 through
December 31, reflect the impact of services through the Johnson County
HACAP office.
Persons served by categories October 1 through December 31,1981:
Number of Households Served 236 {

Increasing unemployment, inflation, and cuts in categorical grant assistance
programs are causing increasing numbers of persons to seek assistance from
HACAP. In order to continue our programs, especially in rural areas with
a scarcity of resources available, it is imperative that we maintain our
neighborhood centers. We expect the number of persons seeking help through
Johnson County HACAP Neighborhood Outreach Center to increase drastically
this year.

Dear Mr. Maniccia:
The Iowa City Council, at its informal session on March 15, discussed
your letter requesting consideration for City funding beginning
October 1 of this year. It was the Council's consensus that more
detailed information on local programming and services provided
- would be necessary before the request could be given serious
consideration. To this end, the Council has directed the Human
Services Planner, Pam Ramser, to procure this information and to
prepare an analysis and recommendation regarding the request.
Ms. Ramser will be meeting with Margaret Stephenson next week to
discuss the specific information which the City requires. If you
have any questions regarding the funding process, please contact Pam
at 356-5242.
I Sincerely yours,
Neal G. Berlin
City Manager

TO: The City Council of the City of Iowa City
FROM: Iowa City Peace Network
DATE: March 11, 1982
WHEREAS the greatest challenge facing the earth is to prevent the
occurrence of nuclear war by accident or design; and
WHEREAS the nuclear arms race is dangerously increasing the risk
of a holocaust that would be humanity's final war; and,
WHEREAS the nuclear arms race is also contributing significantly to
the graving unemployment, rising prices, and other economic disorders
that are eroding the productive capacity of our nation's civilian economy;
and
WHEREAS a freeze followed by reductions in nuclear warheads, missiles
and other delivery systems is needed to halt the nuclear arms race so
as to reduce the risk of nuclear war and enhance economic stability and
growth;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Iowa City assembled that, to improve local as well as national and inter—
national military and economic security, and as an essential first step
toward meaningful nuclear arms reductions, the United States and the Soviet
Union stop the nuclear arms race by adopting a mutual and verifiable freeze
on the testing, production and deployment of nuclear weapons and of missiles,
aircraft, submarines, and other systems designed primarily to deliver such
weapons;
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Iowa City shall make these views known to the President of the United
States, the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, and all members
of Iowa's congressional delegation by transmitting a copy of this resolution
to each of said offices or persons as soon as possible.

Mary Neuhauser, Mayor
Iowa City, Iowa
410 G. Washington Street
Iowa City, Iowa 52240
Dear Ms. Neuhauser;
I felt compelled to write to you and the City Council in regard
to the noise ordinance that is being worked on. I know that the things that led
to the compiling of a new ordinance were mostly in regard to noise in areas of
apartments - students etc. But I do want you to know that there are problems
j also in just nice little neighborhoods.
We live on Friendship Street in Court Hills. The sub -division
has rules that there must be eight feet from the lot line to the building site.
But all that this has done to our property is that there is eight feet from our
bedroom window !I to the lot e and then
bors lot to his
kitchen window. Just sixteen feet between gsleeping oarea and iahnoisy kitchen area
complete with loud radio etc.
We built our house seventeen years ago and have never had any
trouble with neighbors. But when these new Deoule moved in about three years ago
it all changed. First they put a central air conditioner right on the lot line.
That means that the air conditioner was just eight feet from our bedroom window!
Their bedroom is on the other side of their house so they could not be bothered
with the noise of their air conditioner but there was no way that we could sleep
with the noise. I cannot count the nights that I simply gave up and slept in the
living room. Finally I decided to talk to the neighbor and see if he would consider
moving the air conditioner Away from our window. He admitted that it was noisy but
he would not consider moving it even though he works with air conditioning and it
would not be a problem for him to move it. I mentioned to some people about the
problem and everyone said that there was laws about bothering your neighbor with
a noisy air conditioner - especially against having it right on the property line.
So, I talked to and hired the Assistant County Attorney to get the problem
settled. At first he also thought that it was against the law but upon reading the
noise ordinance etc. he saw that "the law just does not have any teeth in it". So,
the next thing to do was to sue the neighbor to try to force him to remove the
nuisance. But - no go. He would not move it but if we would pay for someone to
move it he would consider it. He then got bids - one of them from the company that
he works for - and all of them for five to eight hundred dollars. Our attorney
had a firm come to the house and test the noise decible and found that the heighbors
air conditioner that was eight feet from the house was four times noisier that our
own air conditioner that was three feet from our house - and ours was on the back
side of our house - not facing the neighbor! Our attorney thought that we had at
least a possible 80% chance of winning a day in court and forcing the neighbor to
move the air conditioner but that a day in court would cost probably $1200::: IJho
could afford that? Even though you are right and would win you would lose. Finally
the neighbors lawyer came up with the settlement of - we would give our neighbor
$250. cash and he would move the airconditioner around the corner of his house away
from our bedroom window. So, we settled. We paid him $250. and one Saturday morning
he moved the air conditioner in about a half of an hour. So, we were out $250. plus
months of attorney fees and at $40. per hour it really added up.

So, so much for the mess with the air conditioner. Since that
time a lot of publicity was on noise in Iowa City and the decision of the council
to get together a new ordinance - hopefully with "teeth in it". I do hope that

I or my husband are home ill and would like to take to our bedroom and peace and
quiet but find it impossible because our neighbor - still in their kitchen just

16 feet from our bed
then just 8 feet from their lot line to our bedroom window - and they play their

aware of the new law that must be followed or will it just be something that can
be ingored? Will there possibly maybe be a mailing to all the people in Iowa City
describing the new rules and the fact that they must be followed - that everyone
{ must respect everyones right to privacy in their own home without having to listen
to a neighbors noise? I feel that the type of people that annoy other people are
not the type of people that read the newspaper to be aware of new rules and that
t them is by direct contact - possibly by mail.

with any neighbor until this one. Some of the other owners had children and pets

and still we never heard the amount onow. It is just plain
disregard for anothers rights.

Dear Mrs. Hansen:
Thanks for your informative letter. It is for situations like.yours
that we are going to have the noise ordinance. Everyone should have
the right to the peace and quiet enjoyment of his or her home. We
have had to delay consideration of the noise ordinance while we were
conducting budget discussions, but we'll definitely get the ordinance
adopted before this summer, unless I am very mistaken. I'll pass on
your comments to the City Council.

Re: The Triannual Review .
Dear Mayor:
I would like to invite you, or one of the Councilpersons, to attend the
Triannual Review Hearing occurring April 6, 1982, 4:00 P.M. in the Council
Chambers.
As you may know the Triannual Review Hearing is one of several steps taken
in the process of evaluating the status of cable TV and our various
agreements and franchise with the cable company. This is one time when
changes may be recommended and/or be made as a result of determined needs
or shortcomings in present agreements or operations.
There may be several benefits and advantages, I think, in having a
Councilperson attend this event. I would like your opinion on this topic.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
W. 0. "Bill" Terry
