In answer to Erdahl's guestion'Deputy City Clerk Karr stated that when cigarette permits are issued for bars, there is no inspection for the no -smoking area signs. 2.

Spokesman Scatena gave a chronology of events regarding Parcel 64-1 and proposals for the hotel and store, and reported that Armstrongs, who have signed a lease for 75,000 sq. ft. of space, should have occupancy on or by July of 1983, with the Galleria finished also. The hotel should be ready for occupancy the winter of 1983. ! If the legal issue regarding the tort claim is resolved, and if a financing commitment is obtained within the next three months, Scatena stated that construction could start in the spring of 1982. City Manager Berlin ad- vised that although a letter had been received from the attorney for College Plaza Dev./High Country withdrawing the tort claim, Attorney Hayek wanted the release to be individually signed by all parties. Councilmembers had understood that these obstacles had been cleared up, and Side 2 this meeting scheduled to discuss a timetable for beginning the project. 1-25 Scatena said they could be working on financing and design concurrently for the hotel and store. Possibilities for financing were mentioned. Peremsky commented on Armstrongs timetable needed to open their store by Aug. 1983. Scatena added that if he cannot get the financing, he will so advise Council as soon as possible. OAKES III SUBDIVISION 25-542 Atty. Neely & Mike Kammerer represented the developer. Residents Anthony Frey, Charles Ruppert and Steve Baker were present. Schmeiser stated that the plat had been revised and the deficiencies corrected. The staff feels it is absolutely necessary to have a secondary means of access, which Oakes has provided thru property he owns. The area will develop as single-family use. Agreement for reserving land for later construction of Rita Linn Ave. was suggested. Need for vehicular and pedestrian or school- children access to Shimek School, noted. A majority of Councilmembers favor- ed providing a second access at this time (Rita Linn to Prairie du Chien). Ruppert called attention to the pollution of the creek and other alternatives for access. The letter from Public Works Director Schmadeke regarding the lift station for this drainage area was distributed. Attorney Neely asked that the method of cost-sharing of the oversize sewer be decided. Berlin explained that the City usually paid the difference, in this case, 56000., and later assessed a connection fee for add-ons. MICROFILMED BY ' JORM MICROLAB CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOINES Page 2 Informal Council August 3, 1981 Franklin commented that Rita Linn is proposed to be 31', and the City would need to pay for the extra width over 281. Berlin reminded Council that in discussion of Capital Improvement Projects, Council said they would not pro- vide extra -width paving to be used for parking. A majority agreed that on Rita Linn, if the subdivider wanted to provide for parking on the street, he would have to pay for the extra width. Balmer called attention to other traffic on Prairie du Chien, to and from the Coralville Reservoir, and pointed out that on the Comprehensive Plan, Council had moved the proposed commercial use off Prairie du Chien. Frey stated that there are now not enough children in the area to keep Shimek School without busing, and the sewer and lift station were needed to eventually solve the Pollution problems. COUNCIL TIME 542-705 I. Vevera called attention to the traffic accidents at the creek guard rail on Brookside Drive and asked what could be done. Berlin will check. 2. Perret was advised that the Engineering Dept. is checking on the dumping of construction materials in the area north of Oakcrest (Melrose Pond) and will report. 3. Helling inquired if Council liked the new agenda packet.format. A majority did not like the continuous format. Berlin suggested trying a one -side format next time. i 4. Helling asked for direction regarding the request of the Crisis Center for additional funding. Mayor Balmer asked that the Human Services Planner make a recommendation. 5. Regarding the Christmas decorations, Helling reported on the decision of Council regarding plug -ins on the light poles on Washington Street. They were bid as an alternative and not accepted by Council. Now it would cost $100 for parts and $200 for labor for each pole, to retrofit with City crews. Berlin thought that previously Council had not objected to decorations, but didn't want anything gaudy. Councilmembers agreed. The use of small lights in the trees made them bud in winter. There were no objections to the proposed wreaths or snowflakes, without lights. 6. The cable people have requested that no white shirts be worn for telecast of the Council meetings.
