Consider a recommendation of the Planning & Zoning Commission to approve the Preliminary and Final Plat of Newport Park Subdivision (Oak Meadows). S-8004. Comment: The Planning & Zoning Commission, at a regular meeting held April 17, 1980, recommended by a 5-1 vote to approve the preliminary and final subdivision plat waiving at this time construction and design of the stormwater detention basins until the happening of one of the three following events: a) resubdivision of any lot, b) the passing of 15 years from the date of final plat approval, and c) annexation by the City, and subject to the following deficiencies and discrepancies: 1) the legal papers are not in order and should be revised; 2) the legal description on the plat should be corrected; 3) the title of the plat should be changed as the City has a subdivision named Oakes Meadow, which is very similar to Oak Meadows; 4) the stormwater detention easement should be shown on the final plat. I This recommendation is consistent with the staff's recommenda- tion presented in a staff report dated April 17, 1980, which is attached to the Council agenda.

Comment: Previously, Council approved a resolution authorizing the Mayor to sign a contract agreement with Veenstra and Kimm for design of the sewer plant. This resolution authorizes Neal Berlin to apply for the federal grant which will help pay for the preparation of those plans and specifications. Public Works recommends adoption of this resolution. Action: Item No. 16 - CONSIDER AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 28-3 AND SECTION 28-36 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF IOWA CITY, IOWA. (second consideration) Comment: The purpose of this ordinance is to amend the Uniform Plumbing Code by adding requirements for the registration of apprentice plumbers which will not only indicate who works in the profession, but will be beneficial in establishing a beginning period for apprentices who wish to apply for their journeyman's license. This ordinance also regulates the minimum sized vent pipes and waste pipes that must be used in the installation of plumbing fixtures. This ordinance also allows for the use of a loop -type venting system for island sink and lavatories and in remodeling work. This loop -type venting system is a system that has been used in Iowa City for several years, however, has never been in total compliance with the Plumbing Code. It 1s the recommendation of the Plumbing Board and the plumbers themselves that this loop system be utilized in special situations with the approval of the Plumbing Inspector. These amendments have been reviewed by the Plumbing Board of Appeals and the Board recommends that the Council adopt this ordinance. A copy of the proposed ordinance was to the agenda of April 8, 1980. Action: //attached /I V _ ed { GGr.� o`Z j'=� c i ✓ l ��n t>v 13c/ Item No. 17 - ADJOURNMENT.
