While the size limitations generally are necessary because of the distances which houses usually are moved, in this case the size limitation is not sensible as the width of the street is adequate to accommodate the move. Because the move is scheduled for Tuesday morning, we have included with the informal meeting on Monday a special Council meeting which proposes an ordinance establishing a waiver procedure for the size limitations. j This change will permit the move of the Credit Union office. As it will take six Council members to approve the ordinance, it is important that ; all members be present Monday afternoon. If approved by the City.Council on Monday, the ordinance will be published on Tuesday. cc: Roger Scholten Glenn Siders r 1 i MICROFILMED BY - JORM MICR¢LAB Y CEDAR RAPIDS DES MOINES ,,,•;k I t City of Iowa City MEMORANDUM DATE: December 12, 1980 TO: City Council FROM: Cit er RE: Mo Ing Ordinance In preparing final plans for the move of the former University of Iowa Credit Union building from its present location to a new location on Washington Street, it was discovered that the size limitations in the existing ordinance would prohibit such a move.
