Hello my name is Drew Bledsoe. And I am the C.E.O. of a local Des Moines Record Label. On Dec.4th I am having my
first CD Release Party. We are going to put Iowa on the map like Nelly did for St. Louis. I have the best Hip Hop groups in
Iowa. What we don't have is the money to do the thing we would love to do. Is there anyway to get a grant. If not could
you please help me promote my CD Release Party, I am more then willing to have a meeting with you or anyone that can
help me for that matter. Please contact me about a meeting or just to talk ferther about this. Thank You For Your Time.

The Montgomery-Butler House
I would like to refresh your memory of the Montgomery-Butler House, located in
the newly formed Waterworks Park. Understandably, construction of thc water treatment
plant has had priority for the past several years. It is finished now and thc time has come
to consider again a long-range plan and time schedule for the use and restoration of the
Montgomery-Butler House. The City of Iowa City has already acknowledged that it is an
important site by cleaning it and "mothballing" it several years ago at a cost
$50,000 plus. Thc City of Iowa City also hired Marlys Svcndsen to do a feasibility study
(The Montgomery-Butler House Feasibility Report of September 2001).
I feel that it is very important that the Iowa City Historic Preservation
Commission finish the attempt to have it listed on the National Historic Register. I had
heard that there were just a few more details for Mr. Richard Carlson to return to Des
Moines before the listing was official. I hope that has been done.
Why? Grants to help with various steps of a restoration will be easier to get with
a National Historic Register listing. Various local historic preservation groups such as
the Friends of Historic Preservation and the five local Quester groups will be more likely
to help and, hopefully, so will other local, state and national groups.
The Montgomery-Butler House is an original example of the earliest type of stone
dwelling built in the Iowa City-Coraivillc settlement. It was built in approximately 1854-
55 by two of Iowa City's earliest settlers, Martin M. Montgomery and his wife, the
widow Elizabeth Galbreath Butler Montgomery. Elizabeth was the wife first of Walter
Butler, who was famous for building Butler's Capitol Building where the first Iowa
Legislature met before Old Capitol was built. Elizabeth Butler, in her own right, was
written up in the Johnson County history books as being one of the outstanding females,
wife and mother, in this area during the pioneer settling years. She died in the
Montgomery-Butler House in 1888. Thc house was owned by various members of the
Butler family - Maude Butler being the last in 1968.
Thc site is historically important because the earliest map showed a ford crossing
of the Iowa River and later a ferry crossing owned by Martin Montgomery. Montgomery
also operated a steam saw mill on the property. There is still a remnant of a pre-Civil War
road with its very deep ruts going down to the river.
All these facts together point to a very important Iowa City area development site
- surely enough to qualify as an historic tourist attraction and educational opportunity for
future generations.
For all these reasons, I am asking that the Iowa City Historic Preservation
Commission move the Montgomery-Butler House Project up on their priority list for
future development before you take on any other new projects. It is Time!
Respectfully,

Surviving her J:usband by many years, M~s. Walter Butler
~as one of the most widely known women of the pioneer days.
]utler's "State ttouse," one of the most frequently mentioned
~b~fildin,s in Iowa City built Walter Butler. and be
tavern among the first established in the city..He was au
B~/~hat · ' an h s ared bis pioneer dav~ one
~.~mds the following tribute at ~he time of her death in' 1~$$.
~-.'at the home of her son, J. W. Butler. in Lueas township):
her ae had chosen this is
~;i~ their land of promise: cheered by her kindly greetinzs and
~;eared for by her skilful and willi~ bands. ~a2v a homesick
~j-wayfarer blessed ~he dgv that he ~as~ his' lot ~thin the im
fluence of this good wife, noble mother, and kind hearted
friend." At the time of her death Mr. Gilbert It. Irish, who
was a boy in those pioneer days, said: "The memories of
my early childhood bring to me the first impressions of my
friend. In those gloomy days the cheerful smiles hud pleasant
.words of the woman who endured the hardships of frontier life
without a murmur gave to the recipient a glow of kindly feel-
ing that time cannot efface. )Inch is said and written of the
men, their deeds of bravery, kindly acts and remarkable in-
tegrity, of the pioneer days, but there is yet a brighter page
in the lives of the wives and mothers of that long ago. Of
these heroines was my friend. To enumerate all her virtues
now would be but cold tribute of a friend to one who has so
lived as to disarm death of its terrors and to dispel the gloonlJ
of the grave."

Subject: Liquor License Renewals
Councilors:
The relatively new requirements of the City of Iowa City for additional information and signatures on Liquor
License renewals are causing some potentially serious timing problems.
As you know the City now requires a Criminal History check from the State of Iowa DCI as well as the
signature of the County Attorney for license renewals.
It is my understanding that these are not required by the State ABD.
This year we received our license renewal forms in the mail on the afternoon of Monday October 28, only 15
days before the deadline for submission to be on the Council agenda.
We immediately sent the request for the Criminal History report from the Iowa DCI. This report is required
before we can obtain signatures of the County Attorney and Iowa City Police.
We received the report in the mail on Saturday November §th.
Since Monday November ! 1 was a holiday, this left only 4 hours to obtain the necessary signatures to
submit the renewal application on time. We accomplished this task with the kind assistance of Andy ChappeI1
of the County Attorney's Office.
That's cutting it rather close.
The City Clerk informs me that the renewal packet is mailed out as soon as it is received from the State ABD.
Since the City imposes additional requirements on applicants that require more time to execute, it would be
helpful if the City Council would formally request ABD to send the renewal forms to the City Clerk at an
earlier date. This would allow the licensee a more reasonable period of time to comply with the additional
requirements imposed by the City for license renewals.
Thank you for your consideration of this dilemma.
Sincerely,
Daryl Woodson

Dear Council Members:
My name is Danielle Wagner, and I am a sophomore journalism major at the
University of Iowa. I am currently the program director for the university's
chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ).
One of SPJ's projects includes putting together a panel for Legal and Ethical
Issues in Communication (a required class for journalism majors). The panel
is made up of three journalists and three non-journalists. A moderator will
read approximately three scenarios that involve specific conflicts in the area
of ethics, and panelists are asked to answer questions about the scenarios.
I am writing this letter to ask if one council member would be interested in
participating on the panel. The panel will meet Tuesday, December 3 from
10:55-12:10 p.m. in Lecture Room Two of Van Allen Hall. It is a great
opportunity to share and hear various viewpoints as to why and how something
should be done.
If one of you is interested, I will send you a reminder and further
information (including a copy of the scenarios so you can familiarize yourself
with the issues) at least one week before the event.
If you wish to participate, please also respond with some information about
yourself that can be read to introduce you to the class. In addition, please
let me know if you need a campus map, or if you would like a parking sticker
for the ramp across the street from Van Allen Hall.
Thank you for taking the time to consider this.
Sincerely,

In the interest of tax Containment, I suggest no further money be spent
on the Englert Theater. The Englert is a commercial facility that has
lost its usefulness. It should be torn down.
When the need arises, reclaim the 1902 Public Library, restore the in-
terior, and use it for city or county office space.

Dear Councilors:
The Northside Neighborhood Association would like to thank the
Council for its support of the first phase of the Northside Marketplace
refurbishment. The new lighting, seating and paving have already made
a marked difference in how this area looks and feels. Clearly you
recognize that the businesses and shops in that area are important to the
vitality of our neighborhood and contribute to the quality of life of its
residents and of Iowa Citians in general.
We understand that budget decisions in these times are difficult so
we are especially grateful that the City Council has chosen to recognize
the importance of supporting this unique market area of Iowa City.
Sincerely,

Subject: Scott Boulevard
Dear Councilors,
Both Marcy and I have made good use of the new Scott Boulevard extension
it was long overdue. We do though, have 2 suggestions to improve safety
and reduce confusion en the approach from HWY 1 heading south:
1) Clearly mark each ef the 2 turning lanes onto Scott Boulevard
"Score Boulevard Only" for the outside lane
"ACT? Only" (de not know the name ef the street) for the inside lane
2) Extend the white lane markers through the left turn. We have had
multiple near misses when cars en the inside lane switch te the outside
lane half way through the turn.
Thanks.

Subject: taxes - my opinion
Dear Mayor Lehman,
[ saw an article in the papper on taxes it said. "Taxes why do we pay them?" Well ! think that ther are
many reasons such as. Who would be there to put out a fire? And. Who would be there if there was a
roobery? As you know the reasons go on and on so there are very good reasons why we pay them.

Dear Council,
As a property owner living on Melrose Avenue, I would like some further discussion (and a traffic flow study) before a
decision is made to close off Grand Avenue Court. Right now the traffic flow is such that I sometimes cannot make a turn
into Triangle Place to get to my home. I would like to be advised on further meetings to be held.

RE: November 12, 2002, ICN on New Opportunities for Rural Development in
the Farm
Bill
You might have already heard that the new 2002 Farm Bill has many funding
opportunities for rural development. In order for you and your
organization to begin preparing for such opportunities, we want to invite
you to an ICN on November 12, 2002, from 12 noon to 3pm that will explain
opportunities in this farm bill for rural and community development.
This ICN will cover the Rural Business Investment Program, the Rural
Economic and Development Loan and Grant Program, and the rural Strategic
Investment Program, as well as opportunities in Value-Added Agriculture,
Broadband and Telecommunications, and Renewable Energy.
This program is co-sponsored by Iowa Community Vitality Center, Iowa Rural
Development Council, ISU Extension to Communities, and USDA-Rural
Development. The attached brochure lists the various locations across the
state where you can attend this program. We are asking people to RSVP,
but walk-ins are always welcomed.
If you have any further questions don't hesitate to call our office at
(319) 337-2145.
The attached file is an Adobe Acrobat "pdf" brochure of an ICN event on
Tuesday, November 12 from Noon to 3:00pm. "New Opportunities for Rural
Development" This program is a partnership among Iowa State University
Extension, Rural Development Council, USDA-Rural Development and the Iowa
Community Vitality Center.
It is an informational meeting about farm bill community/economic
development programs. The rules and regulations continue to evolve and it
is important to get the information out to you.
Please plan on attending in Mt. Pleasant or Cedar Rapids and/or share with
others in your department or agency who may be interested.

Subject: "Vacating" Grand Avenue Court
Dear, Responsible, Iowa City Council,
I want to add directly to you my concern about the rather debonair way you are about to give away Grand
Avenue Court to the University Administration. I call two considerations to your attention, in addition to those
emphasized by others:
1) Surely, traffic lights and, probably, street 'ffidening will become necessary at the corner of South Grand
and Melrose Avenue. The comer is already a traffic pattern nightmare and will become more so with closure of
Grand Avenue Court to local traffic (Doug True, who must never venture over this way, should take
note). Who will pay for this, Iowa City or UI?
2) Long-range plans of UI for reasonable traffic flow on the West Side is murky, to say the least. Entry and
exit to the UIHC Emergency Room and loading dock, field house, Pharmacy building, Medical Laboratories
building, Bowen Basic Science building, Law Building, UI day care centers, the new Athletes Education
Building - not to mention football and basketball crowds, and patients forlornly seeking access to UIHC -
depend at present on an open Grand Avenue or Melrose Avenue. Closure of Grand Avenue (as reported in the
newspapers but otherwise ignored) without new street or highway construction is hard to figure. Just what is
planned and when, and at whose expense? Closure of Grand Avenue Court seems simply to accommodate the
hasty move of beginning construction on the athletes building. What's next?
The Iowa City Council needs more information on "ultimate" West Side traffic flow patterns and assurance
from the UI that their plans - if they presently exist - will work for all affected. Past street closures have often
led to congestion and poor alternative traffic routes, and therefore give little confidence in
the foresight of University "planners."
Thank you for your kind consideration of this serious matter,

Subject: Consider a Traffic Light at Scott Blvd and First Avenue
As a pedestrian who walks to work daily, I would appreciate the city council being proactive and considering the
installation of a traffic light at the four-way intersection of Scott Blvd. and First Ave. I appreciate the existing crosswalks
that have been installed recently on Court and First Ave. Before the traffic light was installed it was difficult to get across
between 7 and 8:30 in the morning and 4 to 6 pm. My concern is that now that extension is open, a similar situation
inevitably will occur (as it did, anecdotally, this morning).
As more development takes place and people become used to this very convenient route, it will become more dangerous
for those of us on foot (which I believe will increase as those people who work in the area will enjoy the healthy benefits,
as will families in the area).
The Council is sometimes criticized for actions it takes, but this should not be a tough decision. Safety was a major reason
proponents of the extension pushed for it. Clearly it is a public safety issue.
Thank you for your consideration,

Subject: South Sycamore Regional Greenspace and Trail project
THANK YOU,.,
We've been hearing about sidewalk/trails since moving into the area(Southpoint subdivision) almost 3yrs ago. Although
not entirely completed (muddy and lack of street access to date), they are a welcome addition to the neighborhood. As an
active family of four, the Sycamore sidewalk system means we can walk/jog with little fear of traffic accidents as my wife
and I are generally able to find time to exemise in the pre-dawn and/or dusk hours. As our kids get older, I anticipate
them to visit friends in neighboring developments without adult supervision on the road or being driven to their destination.
When cycling with our children, my son (5) 'wrecked' this fall trying to transition from cement road in our subdivision to the
oiled gravel of S. Sycamore Straet~thera is often loose gravel and a hump where they meet. The sidewalk may alleviate
this hazard although an asphalt/cement road is the real solution.
Keep up the progress. Love to see a 'real road' on S. Sycamore,
Thanks-scc

To date, the City Council has chosen not to amend the alcohol ordinance in Iowa City to make it illegal for persons under
the age of 21 to enter bars. However, there is a strong effort to enforce existing underage drinking laws. I have included
the Iowa City Police Department Daily Arrest Log so that you might view the number of arrests for alcohol offenses made
each evening http://www.iowa-city.org/police/arrests.asp. It is my understanding the City Council will review the existing
alcohol ordinance in approximately five months.

Subject: Underage Drinking
During a recent visit to my son who is a student at the University of Iowa, I was shocked at how underage drinking is
encouraged in Iowa City, Iowa. It would appear that this is an important part of the local economy (including a thriving
underground economy). Bars will serve practically anyone, including eighteen year olds like my son. There are "parties"
that charge a fee for all the beer you can drink. I personally observed a friend's fifteen year old (who looks fifteen) served
a beer at a prominent sports bar. Teenagers (including high school students) flock to Iowa City to drink.
Why isn't the drinking age law enforced in this town? Why aren't these establishments held accountable. If the police
would investigate thisissue properly (beyond the token effort now performed), I am not sure that any drinking
establishments would not be found in violation. Sending our son into this type of "anything goes concerning drinking"
environment is very disturbing.
I am not naive and realize the some underage drinking goes on everywhere. We even live in a university town,
Fayetteville, AR, but what goes on in Iowa City is beyond any reason. But what really disturbs me is all the money being
made those who prey on the underage students. What is being done now is not enough. I believe that many of the well-
publicized problems that the University of Iowa is experiencing are due to the total disregard of alcohol consumption laws.
If this is not the right forum to address this issue, please direct me to where I should go.

RE: Storm damage repair to 2519 Clearwater Drive, Iowa City
Dear Members of the Council:
I am writing to respond to the complaints you received from Wanda and Phillip Daniel
about the repair to the basement of their rental unit following the flood damage of August
23, 2002. As the manager of Saratoga Springs Limited Partnership, the Housing
Fellowship serves as the property manager for 16 townhouses in the Walden Ridge
Homeowners Association. Essentially this means that the Association maintains/repairs
the exterior of the units and Saratoga Springs maintains/repairs the interiors.
I have enclosed a chronology of events as recalled by the staff of the Housing Fellowship.
Five Saratoga Springs units received flood damage to the unfinished basements. Four of
the units required basement reconstruction (i.e. replacement of walls, furnaces, water
heaters and electrical service). The Daniel's unit at 2519 required basement repair (i.e.
removal of damaged drywall, disinfecting, new vinyl in basement bath and carpet
replacement on the last few steps of basement stairs).
Upon receiving notice of the flood damage, staff immediately contacted the City's Rental
Inspector, the Insurer, Moore Construction and Riverside Maintenance. The Rental
Inspector deemed all five units uninhabitable on August 23. The Inspector informed staff
of what repairs needed to be completed so the units would be habitable. The Daniel's
unit required removal of sections of drywall, vinyl and carpet, cleaning and disinfecting.
Moore Construction and Riverside Maintenance began the clean up on August 23.
The Housing Fellowship worked with the Red Cross and the tenants to arrange lodging
for the weekend. We offered to end all five leases immediately if families chose to
relocate. Ms. Daniel indicated that she might look for other options. On Monday,
August 26, the Daniel's unit was not habitable, so Saratoga Springs paid for them to
continue their motel stay.
Between the 23ra and 27th of August, damaged drywall, vinyl and carpet were removed,
windows boarded up and sump pumps checked. On Tuesday, August 27, the Daniel's
unit was deemed habitable by the Rental Inspector, as damaged components had been
removed, professionally cleaned and disinfected and the family returned to their home.
During this week, Ms. Daniel indicated an interest in moving. The staff at the Housing
Fellowship, after consulting the Iowa City Public Housing Authority (PHA), informed
Ms. Daniel that PHA did have three bedroom vacancies. It is our understanding that
showings were arranged and Ms. Daniel did not show up for the showings.
It is true that the Daniel's have called on several occasions to request the repairs be
expedited. The Housing Fellowship responded to each and every request. However, on
several occasions the contractor and sub-contractors have been denied access to the unit
by the Daniel's. It has been reported to the Housing Fellowship that the Daniel's
informed the Contractor that it was inconvenient for them to have workers in their unit
before 10:00 a.m. Further, the Daniel's denied access to Americlean to remove
equipment used to dry the basement.
In regard to the storm water management system, the partners of Saratoga Springs
requested a special meeting of the Walden Ridge Homeowners Association on September
13. The meeting was held on October 16, 2002 (the covenants and restrictions require a
lengthy notice to Association members). The Homeowners Association adopted a motion
to hire a Civil Engineering firm to study the storm water management system and correct
any drainage problems. I know that the building inspector has recommended some
remedial steps to prevent leakage into 2519 Clearwater, and the Association intends to
complete these tasks within the week.
The Board of Trustees and the staff of the Housing Fellowship very much regret that the
Daniel's are not happy with the way that the reconstruction/repairs have been handled.
The situation has been frustrating for all of those involved and everyone wants this
situation to be resolved as soon as possible especially the tenants. Moore Construction
has assured us that all repairs will be completed by November 18. I assure you that we
have made every attempt to provide all five families with safe and decent housing. I am
available at your convenience to discuss this matter further. Thank you for your
consideration of my correspondence.
Sincerely, ,((3 ::

Dear Mayor and members of the City Council:
Hello, we are the Daniels. We reside at 2519 Clearwater Court, Iowa City, Iowa. On
November 5, 2002, we attended a city council meeting. We spoke concerning some
issues and concerns. We admit we felt much better because we felt the council members
listened and seemed to be concerned about our situation. Now it is time for some action
concerning our losses and damages. Although the work is not fully complete the toilet
sitting in the shower stall was removed and a new toilet was installed.
At the last council meeting, my husband gave letters to Mr. Atkins. However after
talking with two council members, that letter was not given to all of them. So tonight in
addition to this letter, I am including the first letter and a set of pictures.
We the Daniel family wish that our lives be made whole and put back together as well as
possible. We want/safe, secure, fair, and adequate housing like everyone else. We want
to be compensated for the lost and damaged items taken away from us on August 23,
2002.

Wanda Daniel Phillip Daniel
November 5, 2002
To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Wanda Daniel and this is my husband Phillip Daniel. We reside at 2519
Clearwater Courts, Iowa City, Iowa. We both arrived in Iowa around or about 12 years
ago. He's from Burlington, Iowa and I'm from Washington, Iowa. Who would have
known we'd find love here in Iowa City. We have 4 children-- 3 here and 1 in
Burlington, Iowa. The reason I moved form Chicago, Illinois to Iowa was to give my
children a chance to live in a safe, comfortable, and healthy, environment.
August was supposed to be one of the most important months and or time of our life.
August 3rd, 2002, we wed. August 13th is my birthday. Then came August 23rd, the day
of the flood, which mined our honeymoon, many household items and our entire
basement. Now we realize that this occurrence, the flood, was unexpected. I use the
word unexpected very lightly, because we've always complained about water every time
there's a hard rain. The water would fill up in the hole in the basement where the
window is and also the drain. Also, water would seep in along the walls or perimeter of
the basement causing mildew which had risen up along the walls at least 3 to 4 feet off
the ground.
This has been a major concern involving our housing situation and the way my family
and I have been treated through out this whole ordeal. We have been patient. We have
been respectfhl. We have tried several times to communicate with our landlord, which is
Saratoga Spring, Greater Iowa City Housing Fellowship. We have verbally expressed
concerns and damages. Their response was, "Wanda, thank you for being patient but the
other apartment had worse flood damage therefore their apartment is a priority." Five
families were displaced including mine. We'd like to thank the Red Cross for being the
only organization that provided help, food, shelter, etc.., for the weekend.
During those days clean up had not started. Mud was everywhere. Mildew was
concentrated, spores, bacteria--it was a disaster. In our opinion the flood could have been
prevented if the builder had constructed a water barrier. So therefore we have poor
construction, poor drainage, and poor listening skills. As a result we have several items
destroyed, damaged such as albums, winter clothing, furniture, chairs, shelves, a whole
drum set, rugs, a toilet not in use, a shower not in use, we have no window at all, no
drywall, small uninvited critters.
Weeks have gone by with no courtesy call from the landlord, no inspector, no worker, no
landlord visits. No nothing. Now we're getting angry and disappointed! This is really
affecting our family mentally, emotionally, and physically. Meanwhile our children are
asking questions and we have to try to go about our daily routines. We have had to use
Clorox bleach daily to sanitize, to cut down on mildew. Weeks go by. We had to talk to
someone. Because we know we have every right to know what's going on or the
progress that is being made.
We call our Section 8 worker. We explained to her how we felt and what's going on and
she acted as if she understands my disappointment and us wanting some answers. By the
way she is fully aware of when this happened and our concerns. Now we are desperate.
We need some help so that is why we called her thinking maybe she can get some
answers. The landlords told her the same thing they told us. We feel helpless, ignored,
disrespected. We can't believe how insensitive our landlord has become toward us.
After all she has communicated with others every other day. She still has not made an
attempt to call or talk to us as a tenant. We deserve to have adequate, safe, fair housing.
We have rights! We understand that Iowa City has fair equal sources that can help
someone like us. We have to know the sources and use them!

term housing, counseling, and other services for the homeless. Unfortunately, the
current facility is inadequate with respect to shelter capacity. We are concerned
about overcrowding and the lack of family designated space, which creates
increased hardships for those trying to cope, especially those with special needs. We
support and look forward to an improved shelter for the homeless here in Iowa
City. As members of this community, we support the need for a larger-capacity facility
that meets the safety, health, and welfare of the men, women, and children that we
serve.
