The P.A.T. staff has discussed the situation at length, and has debated whether P.A.T. should make a statement on this issue. Although we recognize that the issue could have significant impact on tenant -landlord relations in the area, we feel at this time that we are unable to either support or criticize your proposal. Our basic concern is that, unlike your organization, we are not a representative or elected group. You answer to your membership, and therefore are responsible to them. We have no organized tenant group which meets regularly to establish our policy or give us direction or criticism. As a result, we are concerned that any statement we might make would be construed as "how the tenants feel," which is inaccurate since we represent no one. I hope this situation does not continue indefinitely, and that a strong tenants' organization develops in the near future; but until that time we must characterize the water collection issue as one petween your.organization and the City of Iowa City. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. I am forwarding a copy of this note to City Council members as you suggested.

The attached petition reflects the sentiments of residents in 72 of these 79 dwellings. I was unable to contact four of the homeowners (vacations, etc.) and out of the total 79 homes, only two residents would not support the petition. As the 112 signatures were being collected, several thoughts and/or facts surfaced over and over again -- i.e., "When the area was first developed (several years ago) the concept of a gaslit street was aesthetically appealing, but now safety has become more important." "In deference to the energy crisis, many of the gaslights have been turned off." "It is too expensive to convert the gaslights to electricity." "As the area gets older and the trees and shrubs get larger, the remaining gaslights are less and less effective." "All anyone would have to do is walk down Wylde Green at night from Benton to Ashley and they would see how dark and unsafe it has become." and, "Other areas have street lights -- why can't we?" The two dissenters out of all the residents contacted felt the gaslights added "charm" to the street and that they were more aesthetically pleasing than street lights. Maybe so, but when you consider the dark, unsafe conditions that exist for people and property along Wylde Green Road after nightfall, the concepts of "charm" and "aesthetics" have little validity.

These locations would be: Wylde Green Road and Talwrn Court; Wylde Green Road and Kineton Green; Wylde Green Road and Bangor Circle; Wylde Green Road and Edingale Drive; and Wylde Green Road and Ashley Drive. This petition is prompted by the extreme dark conditions that exist along Wylde Green Road after nightfall.

Thomas, Sr. 1204 Wylde Green Road Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Dear Mr. Thomas: This letter is in response to the petition and letter requesting street lights along Wylde Green Road. Because Wylde Green Road was developed with front yard gaslights instead of standard street lights, no easements were acquired for providing electricity to street light locations. However, Iowa -Illinois Gas & Electric Company can provide service to all of the sites you have suggested by using overhead wiring. A drawing is attached which shows the location of existing poles, proposed new street light poles and the new overhead wire which will serve the new street light poles. If this appears to be a satisfactory solution to you and your neighbors, the City Council will be requested to authorize Iowa -Illinois Gas & Electric to make these installations. A written response of approval from the neighbors directly affected by the overhead wires would be preferred. As this year's construction season is very nearly ended Iowa -Illinois Gas & Electric must be notified very soon if the work is to be completed before winter. Depending upon the timing of the authorization, this project may have to be delayed until next spring. Should you have any comments or questions regarding this installation, please contact me.

If this is done, he will call a special session of the Board of Directors to take a stand on the hotel/motel taxa. Hughes felt that the Council reached consensus that 25 percent be allocated to the Convention Bureau, 25 percent to recreation, and 50 percent to the general fund for central business projects. He hopes that you might be more specific with "recreation" and "central business projects." His reasoning appears to be that if the Chamber took a stand and their you clearly defined the revenue allocations, this mi;lht cause controversy. The Convention Bureau hopes that the Chamber will take a stand, and very soon. We feel that a special session would be timely and create the emphasis the tax needs. Of course, it is your decision how you will spend this money, and you may wish to see if the tax even passes. Please be aware that Hughes also indicated that without more specific allocations in the next couple weeks, the Board of Directors will vote on the issue at its regular meeting on October 27, only five days prior to the election. Therefore, if you desire a Chamber of Commerce stand on the issue before. October 27, you will have to be more specific with your allocations.

Such a store would, of course, be built on the land temporarily bought by us to be resold to the above developer. On the other hand, for more than three years we have been trying in good faith to find a developer to lease to us on a turn -key basis, a department store building to be constructed by this third party developer on downtown land now owned by the City. To date, our search for such a developer has not been successful but we are still hopeful. We want to make it perfectly clear that the delay is not due to Armstron 's being unable to finance the purchase of this parcel of land but it is due to our inability to find a developer who will immediately take assignment of this land and build us a department store building to be leased back to us at a rental we can live with and be competitive with other stores. Yesterday, four of us went to Iowa City to indicate our continued interest in such a lease as described above. We had asked that you extend the time period under which Armstrong's would be considered the preferred lessee, and that you and we work together tosecure a developer who will build the above building and lease it to us as described above. We left the meeting yesterday hopeful that ,wand we might be able to get this job done as outlined above. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Washington Iowa City, IA 52240 Dear Mr. Berlin and Council Members: In our opinion, special talents and dedication of key employees is all too infrequently noticed and acknowledged. With this in mind, we would like to address the many facets of Lyle Seydel's expertise. His proficiency is without question. Lyle is extremely well thought of and highly respected among his counterparts in other communities. He makes it a priority to keep abreast of all new data, regulations and innovations which would affect the areas of his responsibility. Not only does Lyle put forth his very best efforts in the day-to-day functions of his department but he is always the first person to go that "extra mile". We are now in the process of trying to put together another 22-4 public housing project. Lyle has handled all of the mechanics of this project to date and has invested many extra hours meeting with all of the necessary agencies, commissions etc. to expedite approval of this project. We want to share a recent, specific situation when his dedication was again evidenced. Some of the neighbors near the 22-4 public housing project had concerns regarding the development. A few of the problems were discussed at Planning and Zoning meetings while still others were shared via phone calls with one of the Housing Commission members, Carol Karstens. In an effort to address all of the issues at one time, Carol suggested that the concerned residents put together an evening meeting of all interested home- owners in the neighborhood. All issues were ultimately resolved without the necessity of having to actually call the meeting. However, it is important for you to be made aware of the manner in which Lyle responded. When we discussed the possibility of a "neighborhood meeting" he was immediately positive. Lyle offered his full support and cooperation and was very gener- ous with his "personal time". He agreed to attend a meeting at everyone else's convenience, bring along designs and anything needed to satisfy every- one's concerns relative to the 22-4 HUD project.
