Enclosed is a letter from Robert Downer requesting that there be a delay of 60 days for receipt of proposals. Also attached is a letter from Armstrongs requesting the project proceed expeditiously. At this time we believe that two completed proposals will be received on April 8. These are from Old Capitol Associates and Worsham/Turner (Nagle). The issues have been discussed with Mr. Zuchelli. Based upon the request from Armstrongs and the information that two proposals will be received, it is the recommendation of Mr. Zuchelli and the staff that bid opening proceed as scheduled on April 8. The City Council may wish to discuss this matter at the informal session on Monday. MICROFIL14ED BY JORM MICR+LAB CEDAR RAPIDS - DES MOINES 75;L 1 ._�N RECEIVED APR 2 1980 Mr. Neal G. Berlin City Manager Civic Center Iowa City, Iowa 52240 RE: Proposed sale of Urban Revewal Parcel 64-1 Dear Mr. Berlin: As you know, our firm has for some time been representing a locally based group interested in submitting a proposal for the development of the above parcel for a combination hotel -retail facility. Despite dilligent efforts, if appears impossible that our client will be able to submit a proposal for the development of this property by April 8, 1980. For the reasons hereinafter set forth, we would request a minimum 60 day extension for re- ceiving proposals on this project. 1. As you know, the national economy has changed consider- ably over the past several months. Interest rates are now at record high levels and the availability of funds for a project of this nature is highly questionable. 2. The use of Industrial Revenue Bonds for this project was made available in the Prospectus. It is certainly correct that issuance of bonds for this project is now authorized under Chapter 419 of the Iowa Code, but such bonds must also meet the requirements of Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code for the interest upon the bonds to be exempt from federal income tax. Under I.R.C. Section 103(b)(6)(D), the maximum amount of bonds which may be issued for a project and the maximum capital expenditures for the project may not exceed $10,000,000. Included in this limitation are all capital expenditures with respect to the facilities incur- red for three years before and three years after the issuance of the bonds. Such capital expenditures further include all costs in- curred by any principal (more than 10%) user of the facilities, which would bring within this limitation all costs for leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment for a major depart- ment store and the hotel and restaurant.

RerLin page 2 April 2, 1980 costs, etc. would be substantially exceeded. Our client does not regard the project as financially feasable without Industrial Revenue Bond financing. 3. It is still possible that the project could be financed in this manner if it were divided into two parts with separation of ownership between these parties. However, it would be necessary for these two portions to be considered separate projects1for purposes of I.R.C. Section 103(b)(6)(D) which, in all probability, would require a ruling by the Internal Revenue Service. We have consulted with both bond counsel and investment bankers in this regard, who feel that such a ruling would be a prerequisite for an opinion of bond counsel. The bid documents do not address the question of a split in ownership of the project or the issuance of two separate issues of Industrial Revenue Bonds. 4. It appears that financing of the hotel portion of the pro- ject will be far more difficult than securing financing of the retail space. For that reason, we feel that it might be advisable to permit developers to construct the retail space now with the hotel area to be added at some later time. Another alternative would be to permit proposals for the retail space only. 5. At this time no response has been received from the City to the inquiries of John Benz of Hansen Lind Meyer, P.C. submitted last week. In our client's opinion such a response is critical to our being able to submit a proposal. Thank you for your consideration.

We feel that an Armstrong store would be a valuable addition to the merchan- dise mix that will exist with the completion of the Downtown Mall, one block from our intended site. We have strong feelings that an Armstrong store/Hotel complex would be a very desirable project and vital to DDwntown Iowa City.

MICROFILMED BY JORM MIC R+LAB CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES ■ ■ W 2 RESPONSE: This presents a complex federal tax question which can be resolved only by the Internal Revenue Service. QUESTION: Define what is meant by a central HVAC system, and what alternative systems might be acceptable to the City (page 20 of Prospectus). RESPONSE: The term "central HVAC system" is generally intended to mean centrally located comfort heating, ventilation and air conditioning plant equipment, installed in such a manner as to supply heat, I ventilation, and air conditioning by means of ducts and/or pipes to areas other than the room in which the i equipment is located. The developer does have the option of proposing an alternative system which serves this purpose by use of another technology without compromising the design quality of the hotel development. One basis for the City's consideration of an alternative system will be superior energy efficiency. QUESTION: Does the "weather -protected pedestrian connection between the hotel and parking structure" (page 20 of the Prospectus) need to be fully enclosed or is a canopied connection adequate to meet the requirement? RESPONSE: This is a design consideration within the discretion of the developer, subject to final City approval of the design. A roof or canopy is required, but a complete enclosure is not necessarily required. Design of the connection should take into account the length of the connection and the orientation of the building. QUESTION: Can this project be constructed from property line to property line? RESPONSE: Yes, contingent upon meeting the requirements of the building code. QUESTION: Will the City modify the Prospectus so that a redeveloper may propose the development of commercial space without any hotel? RESPONSE: No. QUESTION: Uelinl what is nunnl. by 1.11n term "gross squin•e fora," a1, found on palle I/ of thr I'ru,pr'r:tus. MICROFILMED BY JORM MICR+LA6 CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES 7S� i 3 RESPONSE: The term "gross square feet" refers to gross leasable area, and does not include hallways, corridors, elevators, and other common areas. QUESTION: In lieu of the non-refundable deposit and financing fee described on page 19 of the Prospectus, can the developer cover the direct costs of the City in issuing the revenue bonds? RESPONSE: No. QUESTION: Is Iowa City eligible to receive Urban Development Action Grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development? RESPONSE: HUD has previously classified Iowa City within that group of cities known as "small cities" (i.e. less than 50,000 pop.) for purposes of HUD programs. Effective with the start of the next federal fiscal year, on October 1, 1980, Iowa City will lose its "small city" designation and will be redesignated as a "metro" city. As a "small city", Iowa City is eligible under the UDAG program for the balance of this federal fiscal year and the first two quarters of the next federal fiscal year. Thereafter, however, Iowa City will not be eligible as a metro city to participate in the UDAG program.

It is ridiculous to post a guard there when no trains are running. If rail traffic is resumed, Don Akin will fill in until the end of the school year. Lawrence Malmberg, a crossing guard stationed at a post on the east side of town will be terminated as the least senior member of the Division with the understanding that he will be rehired next fall if an opening occurs. Mary Coburn will process the personnel transaction when she returns from vacation.

Decreased funding and personnel make it impossible to support their activities in addition to the Departments' activities budgeted for the next fiscal year. Should the City Council resolve to provide the Riverfront Commission with support for the next fiscal year, there appear to be only two alternatives available to the City Council as follows: 1. The first alternative would suggest the employment of a part-time person with whatever source of funding is or will become available to provide sole support to the Commission. Attached is a memorandum from the Commission to the City Council (which apparently had never been distributed) concerning the Commission's proposed activities in the future. To implement the proposed projects would require a person with specialized skills in grant writing, . contract .procedures, etc. Since the Department of Planning and Program. Development had provided the Commission with support heretofore, it is suggested that the person be located within that Department. 2. The second alternative would suggest that the Commission's activities be incorporated with those of the JCRPC and funded by Iowa City, Coralville and the County since the Commission is composed of members from each of the three agencies. If reorganization of the JCRPC were to occur then it is assumed that the activities would be included with those of the joint planning agency. bj3/6 MICROf ILMED BY JORM MIC R�L AB CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES E R January 31, 198D MEMO TDt- John Balmer, mayor, Ioma City, Ionia and mrmbers of the Council - Robert Vcvrra Mary Peuhauser Clemens Crdahl Glenn Roberts Larry Lynch i:.

We have sent this information to the County and they will let us know if they are interested in having us pursue this. The advantage of using Federal funding would be that the line could be oversized to handle development in the entire water shed. At the present time the County plans to install only an 8 inch line which will serve only a portion of the water shed. No conclusions or recommendations can be drawn at this time about any Particular direction to go. There are too many unknowns. The EPA funding for the sanitary sewer may actually not be available or may not be available soon enough.

As I understand your letter you are advocating private ownership and maintenance of subdivision streets. By doing so you believe that the City would be able to avoid long term responsibility for maintenance of streets. Public Works does understand your viewpoint, but as a matter of practicality, homeowner associations are incapable of major street maintenance. In addition, most property owners feel that the property taxes they pay entitle them to satisfactory street maintenance. The Public Works Department believes that there are only two choices available. The first choice involves substandard construction of streets with minimal maintenance for a period of several -years and then the City takes over maintenance. The second choice is that the streets are built to adequate City standards and are maintained by the City from beginning to end.

If a home -owners association must do all these engineering requirements and if the City is willing to accept -the cul-de-sac when the requirements are met, and if the City is willing and eager to do the maintenance on the street for ever and ever ----then the City gets the street. It does not cost the homeowners another penny to have garbage pick-ups street ewespingj, anew plowing, street repair and street resurfacing for ever and ever. There in something wrong with this "policy". All over the USA the cities are trying to get largli sub -divisions to provide interior streets that are owned and controlled by the home-bwners association# but not in Iowa City. Under this "policy" the city does not get any more income from property taxes the cost of maintenance goes up for the city but -- the staff has an opportunity to add to the maintenance dynasty created in Iowa City during the past ten years.

An explanation of this proposal (see attached) would Place further limits on a city's ability to raise revenue. The amendment which is being proposed by Iowans for Tax Relief is directly opposed to the constitutional amendments that grant cities and counties local dome rule. The amendment as drafted places intolerable burdens on local government and then gives it an opportunity to survive only if extraordinary majorities can be obtained in the legislature to give local government relief. A careful reading of the proposal along with our analysis clearly shows that the proposal does nothing about inflation and increasing costs that your city must meet in order to provide services. Likewise, it does not address federal mandates in any manner. Finally, it precludes local determination in addressing particular developmental needs and creates an environment that is not conducive to attracting new development and business to cities.

MICROFILMED DY JORM MICR(�LAO CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOIIIES 7.151 BACKGROUND The Iowans for Tax Relief was formed several years ago by David Stanley, former state senator from Muscatine and unsuccesful candidate for the U.S. Senate. He is the President of a 14 -member executive board. The draft proposal is the result of four previous drafts that were developed by a 21 -member drafting committee that included 12 Iowa legislators (6 democrats and 6 republicans) and nine citizen members. MAJOR PROVISIONS OF AMENDMENT' I. It shall be Article 13 of the Iowa Constitution. 2. The growth percentage for state and local government for a fiscal year is nine -tenths of the annual percentage of personal income of the state. 3. Iowa total personal income will be defined and determined by the United States Department of Commerce. 4. Government includes state and local and all branches, parts, agencies, authorities, and instrumentalities. S. Revenue means the total of all amounts received from all sources directly or indirectly except: a. amount lawfully refunded or credited to the payor b. receipts from federal government c, gifts from non-governmental sources d. student tuition and fees for post -high education e. non -tax charges for recreation f. non -tax charges for entertainment g. non -tax charges for cultural events h. funds borrowed lawfully i. receipts applied to pay principal and interest on lawful bonds only if the bonds are approved by a vote of the people, out- standing on the effective date of the article, or state revenue bonds. j. state tax credits applied against local taxes (homestead, c:^). 6. Growth of personal income is calculated using the percentage increase of the three-year total of personal income for the fiscal year beginning in 1977. 7. Excess local revenue shall be refunded or credited pro -rata to all property taxpayers based on property tax payable to the local government In that fiscal year. MICRDFI LMED BY JORM MICR�LAB CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES 7s9 ai is 8. local revenue limits may be exceeded for one year if an emergency is declared by the Governor and that declaration is adopted by 2/3 vote of the whole membership of each house of the general assembly. 9. Local revenue limits may be temporarily exceeded if approved by a majority of the electorate voting in a state referendum. 10. State may exempt from revenue limit cities of not more than 1,000 population or a class of local governments each of which derives less than 10 percent of its total receipts (directly and indirectly) from state or local taxes. 11. State is required to fund all laws and rules that incur a significant net cost increase on local government if they became effective after 1978. '_• 12. State may provide for adjustment of revenue limits. 13. Pension programs must be actuarily sound; existing programs not meeting that requirement must be brought into compliance within 10 years. 14. Bonds inssued in the future shall be used only to finance capital I improvements. ' Ibis summary only highlights the major provisions of the amendment. Certain language has been omitted to improve clarification of understanding. You should consult the amendment itself for further details. i \ 7s9 MICROFILMED BY JORM 1%71C R+LAB CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES -3 - PROCEDURE FOR PASSAGE The proposed amendment must pass in the same exact form two sessions of the general assembly and submitted to the voters at a state election for approval. ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL I. The proposal does not address federal mandates. Z. It is contrary to home rule. 3. Does not address inflation or costs. 4. 7here is no need for this amendment in Iowa because Iowa governments have not raised taxes excessively for the past decade. Excluding federal aid, the ratio of state and local government general revenue to personal income was just about the same in 1976-77 as it had been in 1970. S. In the area of federal mandates such as water and wastewater standards, there is no protection or allowance. This means that local government will have to allocate a greater share of allowable appropriations to meet federal requirements, leaving less available funds for programs and services desired and requested by local citizens. 6. If environmental quality standards cannot be met it is likely that many local governments agencies. will face sanctions by federal environmental regulatory 7. Violation of maintenance of effort by state to existing federal fcrmulas because of a spending limitation will cause sanctions to be imposed against the state by the federal government and will jeopardize all federal funding. 8. The proposal addresses only bonds voted on by the people. It eliminates any consideration to essential corporate bonds not so voted. 9. The allowable growth rate of revenue would depend on economic conditions from two to five years earlier, which have little bearing on current economic conditions. 10. The proportion of state revenue used for aid to local government could not be reduced, despite the decreasing number of public school reduces the need for state aid to schools. pupils which 11. The amendment does nothing to imporve the fairness of the tax system. I I MICROFILMED BY JORM MICR+LAO CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES -4- i 12. Iowa has a long history of controls over local government spending, i.e. $8.10/$1,000 limit. Additional limits of whatever form are not necessary. 13. The amendment applies a single economic factor to 955 cities with differing economic needs. 14. It renders useless the democratic process of electing local and state officials to carry out the wishes of their constituents. 15. Centralizes authority in state government by allowing implementation and interpretation by the legislature. 16. By requiring extraordinary majorities (2/3 votes) it has the practical effect of eliminating them as a viable option. 17. Provisions for referendum and vote places significant veto power into the hands of a small minority. 'Rte use of a plebiscite to decide local issues (it will have to be used often) will not only slow down local decision capacity but also may thwart the majority. 18. Requires local government to fund future benefits in an actuarily f sound manner. With respect to some jurisdictions the annual amount needed to pay off an unfunded liability could be devastating and force major undesirable 1 increases in spending, if authorized by the voters, or major undesirable re- ductions in services if the increased expenditure were rejected under the provisions of the amendment. 19. The proposal damages the twin concept of representative government I t and fiscal flexibility. 20. The concept of state spending limits and a constitutional mandate that they pay for all new programs imposed on local government is ir- reconcilable . This can only lead to a no -growth policy and delays in implementing needed social and capital programs. 21. Precludes local determination in addressing particular developmental needs and creates an environment that is not conducive to attracting development and business to citites. This could cause and foster greater migration f -nm the central city causing a lower tax base. 1111111 LMED BY JORM MIC RI�LAB CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES I i,.•a 1 1 -5- UNANSWERED QUESTIONS Section 11 of the proposal applies only to laws and rules which become effective after 1978. What about mandates from the state that are on an increasing formula basis that have been in existance prior to 1978. For example, IPERS which requires an ever increasing employers share to meet obligations. What about the inflationary cost of a mandated program. Will the state be required to match whatever that amount is in addition to the "net cost increase". Section 2 excludes specific items from the definition of revenue. It does not appear to exclude road use tax revenue from the state or revenue from municipal utilities. Section 11 requires the state to transfer funds to local government for "significant net cost increases". Significant is not defined and leaves the decision and discretion for determining that amount with the state. Section 6 states that excess local revenue shall be refunded or credited pro -rata to all property taxpayers. it is unclear why someone paying low taxes should share in a pro -rata return. The same section states that excess state revenue shall be credited or returned to all income taxpayers. It appears to exclude those who paid sales tax into the state from a portion of that return if they did not pay income taxes.

FROM: John Lundell 411 ( f� RE: Recent Kansas City Trip Highlights lC i On March 17th and 18th, Dave Ricketts of CAMBUS, Pete Albrecht of Cora.lville Transit, and myself had a very successful trip to Kansas City. We first visted Kansas City Metro to inspect their new Flxible 870 Advanced Design buses and obtain their general impression of the coach. Dave and Pete are seriously considering purchasing this design of coach under their pending capital grants. On Tuesday we met with UMTA and FHWA regional office personnel to discuss various planning requirements and options for the Iowa City urban area. I thought perhaps you might be interested in a summary of these meetings. Primarily we discussed what JCRPC should undertake during the upcoming fiscal year utilizing the UMTA Section 8 planning monies in anticipation of Urbanized Area designation. i1. Section 504 Requirements i Fortunately, the 11504" Transition Plan for this area will not be required until July of 1981. The pending UMTA Section 3 grant is not dependent j upon a completed Transition Plan since it will receive Federal approval prior to July 1, 1980. Production of a "504" Transition Plan will be a major work item for next year's work scope. Another advantage we will have by waiting is that we will have other area transition plans upon which to model our plan. 2. Title VI Documentation Another fairly substantial report we will have to produce in the upcoming fiscal year deals with Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. This report insures that the transit systems are providing similar benefits to the entire urban population regardless of race, color, or national origin and that all persons have an opportunity to participate in transportation planning, programming and implementation. ' 3. Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 1 This document is a fivo year program of transportation projects including both highway and transit improvements. We will need to put together such a program of projects during the next fiscal year. i 740 MICROFILMED BY JORM MICR+LAB CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES Transportation Memo Page 2 4. Transportation Systems Management (TSM) This report describes our short-range low capital intensive planning process and suggests improvements which will come out of such a process. I hope to draw heavily from the past TDP's and similar highway documents to develop our first TSM report during FY '81. 5. MPO Structure and Agreements Upon designation of the Metropolitan Planning organization (MPO) by the Governor, work will have to begin on setting up .its structure and representation. A Memoranda of Agreement will have to be signed between the MPO and East Central Iowa Council of Goverr=nta_.4 W1,,{0AA,a_,.. the A-95 Review process. Agreements will also have to be executed between the transit operators and the MPO as well as between IDOT and the MPO defining the roles and responsibilities of each agency. At the next Transportation Committee meeting, I will elaborate further on these items and mention other areas that were discussed. I will be putting together in the next week a general work scope specifically outlining what we intend to undertake and accomplish during FY 1981 using UMTA Section a monies. This work scope will be circulated to the Transportation Committee members.at this month's meeting and be discussed further at that time.

Washington Street Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Gentlemen: Aside from those problems specifically addressed in our extension request, dated February 12, 1980, this letter and its attached documentation serves to respond to your need for additional data as outlined in your February 29th letter. We have, since last summer, been talking with American Electronics Laboratories and other vendors about a turnkey construction contract in Iowa City. On November 12, 1979, ATC actually awarded the job to A.H.L. A copy of the letter confirming this agreement is attached. We also informed A.E.L. of the commitment to have 25% of the system completed by April 18, 1980. Meanwhile, our subsidiary, Ilawkeye Cable- vision, continued to move forward on tower, earth station and office building construction as well as other non -turnkey activities in order to meet our commitments. All appeared to be going well until January 14, when we received word from A.E.L. that they could not honor the terms of the contract as previously agreed upon. A copy of that letter is also attached. Additional negotiations with A.E.L. failed to resolve our differences, therefore a decision was made to construct the Iowa City system ourselves, by using our recently formed Plants fa Facilities Division. Now, we are hard at work organizing that effort and construction will begin the week of March 17.

The City strongly disagrees with certain of the statements being made to the news media by Ms. Brown which are not supported by the facts. However, the City wishes to avoid any undue harm to Ms. Brown's reputation through a public debate of the specific charges. The news media is not an appropriate forum in which to resolve these matters. Several avenues are available for consideration of Ms. Brown's concerns. The City welcomes the opportunity to present its case in an appropriate forum. i 70 MICROFILMED BY a JORM MICR+LAB CEDAR RAPIDS • DES MOINES
