PILOT SOLAR DEMONSTRATION PROJECT
Milkman explained that the two projects outlined by Tinklenberg at the
last meeting still had not been awarded. The solar hot water heater
project will probably be awarded this week, however, the solar greenhouse
required design changes and no estimates are available as to a bid timetable
or construction schedule.
The Committee expressed their disappointment and concern about the lack
of progress made on this project which was originally to be completed
in 1978.
McCormick moved the carryover of funds for the Pilot Solar Energy Demonstration
project as outlined without any further rebidding and with the provision that
actual construction should begin by December 1, 1980 otherwise remaining funds
will revert back to CDBG.
VanderZee seconded.
The motion carried with Draper abstaining.

RECOMMENDATION TO COUNCIL

at that meeting to add more campsites without adding sewers. Commission
discussed river pollution problems stemming from this type of expansion.
IOWA RIVER CORRIDOR BROCHURE
The members discussed various revisions needed in the 1976 brochure.

Perhaps having one section on the history and one on phesent accomplish-
ments and future plans mentioning the Buffer and Trail as goal.
Consensus was that swimming should be discouraged. The bike trailways
could be mentioned under Biking and Hiking. The text dealing with
fishing can be greatly condensed ,
Members felt that a new, more exciting logo was in order. Franklin
stated that she would talk to the graphics people. The final layout
will be approved by two or three Commission members rather than the
whole Commission.
STURGIS FERRY BOAT RAMP
Franklin reported that work is nearly complete on the boat ramp. No extra
costs have been incurred which has left the Commission with an excess of
funds. At the last meeting the Commission recommended that the funds be
spent on gazeboes at Sturgis Ferry Park and rip rapping in order to
alleviate some of the bank erosion on the river. Since then the Staff
has determined that the funds cannot be spent for the rip rapping project.
Because these are CDBG funds and the Committee was obligated to allocate
the funds to a viable CDBG project in July. Some of those funds may revert
back to a COBB contingency fund.
Members discussed building two to three gazeboes with appropriate flooring,
perhaps patio block or wood decking. A light could be put in for $5 to
$8 a month to help discourage vandalism. The gazeboes will cost approximately
$2000 each. The addition of picnic tables and cookers was agreed to.
Each table will run approximately $100.

Sturgis Ferry Park in a triangular configuration south of the parking
lot and that additional picnic tables and grill be purchased for the
area.
Robertson seconded.
The motion carried unanimously.
Members discussed the possibility of using remaining funds for plantings
however, this is an unacceptable use of CDBG funds.
The Commission felt that a grand opening for the boat ramp was appropetate.
They decided to ask the Fire
Department and the Police Department to
participate in a boat launching.
CAPITOL IMPROVEMENTS PROJECTS
Franklin distributed a summary of proposed capitol improvements. Members
objected to the East Iowa River Bikeway as a proposed priority item.
The bikeway had been discussed previously by the Commission and at that
time they had rejected it because of the adequate bike path on the west
side of the river.
Baker moved that the Commission recommend that the East Iowa River
Bike Path be removed from the Bikeways Plan as a priority item because
it is an unnecessary expenditure.
Lewis seconded.
The motion carried unanimously.
Franklin pointed out that at this point no federal funding has been allocated
for bikeways and that if any funding for the upcoming year was to be allo-
cated I Congress must take action within the next month. Members discussed
sending letters to the
representatives encouraging them to work for bike
way funds.
Lewis moved that the River Front Commission draft a letter to the appropriate
Congressional representatives about bikeway funds.
Boutelle seconded.
There was unanimous consensus.
RIVER BANK EROSION CONTROL
Gilpin initiated discussion of Berk Meyers' erosion control activities
along the river. He
1
pointed out that Meyers was an outstanding example
of an individual citizen concerned about the the
quality of river.It was
decided to send him a proclaimation congratulating him on his contribution
to the quality of the river.

letter about the displaced bike path and the removal of the native
prairie grasses.
Pat Meade from the Johnson County Conservation Board contacted Gilpin
requesting aid to help save the dam and catwalk. The Commission decided
to send a letter re -stating that the Riverfront Commission can not fund

STAFF PRESENT: Seydel, Steinbach, Siders, Schmeiser, Kendall,.Kucharzak,
Flinn, Woito
I. Meeting was called to Order at 4:10 p.m.
II. Steinbach reported on the sequence of problems relating to Lakeside.
He indicated that complaints regarding the air conditioning units had
been received since early summer culminating in a tenant meeting with
Lakeside Management on July 11, 1980, and the subsequent appearance of
approximately 20 tenants at the Council Meeting on Tuesday, July 15,
1980. He further reported that on Wednesday, July 16, 1980, he, Mike
Kucharzak, Dale Helling, Linda Woito and the City Manger met and de-
cided to use the "supplied facility" portion of the Housing Code to
force Lakeside Management to provide air conditioning to their ten-
ants. Steinbach indicated that on that same Wednesday (July 16, 1980)
he issued an emergency order which would have expired on Sunday, July 20,
1980; however, on Monday, July 21, 1980, spot inspections were conducted
indicating a "good faith" effort had been made precipitating a 3 day ex-
tension with reinspection scheduled for Thursday, July 24.
Klaus questioned the rent escrow procedures.and was advised by Steinbach
that no procedures had been established to date since all efforts had
been relegated to identifying units. VanderZee queried why "Supplied
facility" had not been used prior to tenants going to Council add was
advised by Kucharzak that the Code had never been applied to air condi-
tioning in the past.
III. Schmeiser presented overview of proposed zoning ordinance. He indicated
that this is a two-step process:- that the first step was the Comprehen-
sive Plan and that the new ordinance must be compatible with the Compre-
hensive Plan. Klaus questioned the public meetings prior to Commission
review and was advised that these are informal hearings seeking citizen
input and should not be construed as formal public meetings. Klaus fur-
ther questioned lowering the density in older neighborhoods. Questions
were raised as to how to amend the Comprehensive Plan. Koenig, VanderZee
and Graf agreed to serve on a Task Force to review the proposed zoning
ordinance and report back to Commission at next meeting. Schmeiser ad-
vised Planning $ Zoning timetable, and agreed to meet with Task Force.

Enerqv Director
The Commissioners looked over the materials received from the

should be donated to the Public Library after the RCC is
finished with them.
Solar Project Update
Tinklenberg reported that one bid of $4,850 had been received on
the greenhouse project which was within the cost estimate.
Negotiations were now being carried out to resolve some
problems in the bid proposal and should be completed soon.
Three bids of $3,872.57, $4,072.62, and $4,625.00 were received
on the liquid solar collector. The two lowest bids were within
the cost estimate. Central States Energy Research Corporation
has reviewed the bids and recommended the low bid, because it
also was the best bid in terms of cost per million BTUs output.
These bids now need to be reviewed with the home owner.
