The reasoning behind this requirement_: wires, because of the height of utility poles, can go only so high. Second, throughout the city we have many high voltage wires (32,000 to 300,000 volts) that have a six (6) foot, diameter electrical field..: .To be safe we must stay six to eight feet under these wires. No one has been allowed, to move a building in Iowa City, Iowa, over this height limitation and itis certainly not advisable now. Iowa -Illinois Gas and Electric, Mel Schweer and Ray Sullivan are in charge: Of ering and raising of the wires for house moves. They do not wish this height limitation to be extended. The reason for the thirty-four (34) feet width limitation ' is because many utility poles would have to be removed.In s are narrow and because of trees and many -areas our street utility poles, a wider load would not'pass without the removal of one or the other. " At the present height and width; we find in many areas that the trees must be trimmed and in some cases large branches must be removed. This causes havoc ,with the property and potential destruction of beautiful trees. Several of the Urban Renewal houses that were sold at auction exceed this height and width limitation. Yocum, Merker, and'Pieper are thought ,to be coming the City Council to have the limitations of height and width waived. It is recommended that this request be denied. November 20, 1975. - Tl:c Rev.

Application submitted by Mr. .Jim McFall. and Mr. Jack.Shubatt - to rezone a tract of land at 2100 South Riverside Drive immediately south of Streb South Industrial Park from'a Cl -Local Commercial Zone to an Ml Light Industrial Zone. STAFF The subject 134 -foot by 650 -foot - ANALYSIS: tract (1.999 acres) is located - north and west of the Johnson "Mobile 11ome Court zoned Cl and south of Streb South Industrial Park zoned MI. The property is presently occupied by a single family dwelling, . The.. Staff has repeatedly recommended against rezoning land to an Ml Zone in the South Riverside Drive corridor area for two reasons: 1. -because of the incompatibility of industrial uses to the existing mobile home courts located on South Riverside Drive, and 2. because of the allowance of residential uses in the Nil Zone. In a_Staff Report dated December 15, 1973 it was recommended that a residential be -established -`zone -for mobile home parks to require that commercial and industrial establishments located adjacent to them provide the same buffering techniques as when located adjacent to.other R Zones. In a_Staff Report dated September 12, 1974, it was recommended that the 611 Zone be amended to permit only industrial and.similar uses to prevent the possibility of industrial and residential uses or other highly incom- patible uses being located within close proximity of each other. A proposed ordinance creating an RMH Residential Mobile Home Zone_ and an ordinance creating three new industrial zones have been drafted. -Unfortu- nately, however, other higher priority items havepreemptedfinal revision of the ordinances by the Staff. ----If-the ordinances were completed and adopted as drafted and the subject tract was rezoned to an Il Zone, the regulations would require: `1. that the tract be used for only industrial and similar uses, 2. that the environmental effects of smoke, particulate matter, noise, toxic matter, odor, vibration and glare from an industrial operation be reduced to a bare minimum at the property lines common to the mobile home park; • ,__ 3_ that the open _storage of materials and equipment, off-street parking, and the industrial' use itself be completely screened from view within the mobile home park,. -2_ . • 4. that the yard depth between an industrial use and the mobile home park boundary equal 2.2' feet -for each foot-of industrial building - height, and S. that off-street parking not be permitted within 30 feet of the front lot line. - If the subject tract was rezoned to an M1 Zone, the present ordinance would allow: 1. any use except those uses confined to the M2 Zone, 2. a 45-foot building to be constructed up to the lot lines common to the mobile home park,- ark,3.'unscreened 3. unscreenedoff-street parking and the open storage of materials and equipment, and _ 4. the controlledemission of pollutants with disregard to the adjacent mobile home park as a residential use. The Staff is still of the opinion that the South Riverside Drive corridor area is best suited for industrial use. However, until the adverse effects of industrial uses upon the residential mobile home park can be • controlled, the Staff would be remiss in recommending that the subject tract be rezoned to an M1 Zone. Such action would be contrary to the very basic concept of zoning --'that land uses of the community are properly, situated in relation -to'one 'another. STAFF It is the Staff's recommendation' RECOMMENDATION: that the subject application be deferred pending completion and - - adoption of the. proposed ordinances ._ creating an RMH Residential Mobile Home Zone and three new industrial zones.

Rehabilitation program is to help people, not rescue them.`. e alcoholic,' problems.- This is an area i;ith 360 employees, S to 10% could hav that we will be following up with program and education training. This program should be made available to employees through the benefit package so that they will become more_ aware of it and seek its services when necessary. :They suggested a'committee of management and labor personnel to_help define the needs of employees who would ultimately have input to the City Manager. The staff and department heads are encouraged to give some thought to items that they would, want to -put into the Annual _Report. Thought should be given to publishing the annual report in the newspaper in a`speci.al section.,. -This would be 'similar to paid advertising and cost somewhere in the neighborhood ;' -- --of-$1,S00 to $2,000. If we decided to follow-through'; with this, we would put, the report in the Press -Citizen and Daily Iowan. Some thought has been given to whether it would be desirable to _change the meeting time from Friday to Wednesday at midmorning. At this time agenda items can be reviewed and any items scheduled with the appropriate departments. Arrangements should be made to block out time during the middle of the week to use Barbara Ettleson from the Institute of Public Affairs to continue to further discuss problems that have been identified. The City Manager's office (specifically, Neal, Julie, Linda, Mel and Lorraine) will continue to work on the citizen complaint referral procedures. Department, heads are encouraged to begin monthly reporting proceduresquickly.: Police and Fire are now pro-; viding these, but itisdifficult to determine where department priorities are and the Manager is; not in a position to inform the Council what is going on within' the individual departments without these reports. Department heads,, should establish a meeting with each of their division heads to improve com MM and discuss problem% goals, priorities with each of them. The.-- -- ----organization does not appear to have the cohesiveness necessary with relation- - ship to goals and objectives throughout the total organization. The easy answer is to say that we do not have the time to establish objectives. It is necessary that the department communicate to outline,,the work, responsibilities and where problems are in their divisions. This is in direct relationship with the citizen complaints. Some revision may be necessary to sort out requests to determine which have a higher priority. The phone system was modified two years ago -to .allow individuals to get hold of someone personally. Now department heads are getting into a situation where calls are taking up the majority of their time. Some calls do not necessarily need to be referred to the department head. The Public Works area will be reviewed in -relationship to the citizens' complaint procedures. An equipment facilities study will also involve the Police, Fire, and the Amenities Program Plan. - The Christmas Party was discussed, and a memo will besentto the Council out - The He states in, this opinion that Christmas lining the Attorney General's opi parties are an expenditure of public funds for private purposes and can be interpreted as embezzlement:. 1%'e will be getting feedback from the Council on this item. - 2 777 Minutes of Staff Meeting October 31, 1975 Agenda items were reviewed. The Council discussed the_Christmas parties at the last Council meeting and a consensus was reached that a party would not ` be held this year. Some employees favor holding an appreciation party while SOME :are opposed. Department heads should poll their departments to see if enough employees favor holding an appreciation -party on ,our own. The funding, would not be provided by the City. Everyone will be responsible for their own costs. It appears as though everyone in the Civic Center is in favor of .> and others who are not in the peripheral area are not. holding such a party have not been well attended in the past. Individual parties by departments The staff felt that the Christmas party should be dropped. The question of holidays off during the Christmas season was discussed. Personnel rules and regulations state that a floating holiday will be either the day before or the day, after Christmas. This item is negotiated into the Union contracts. A holiday -schedule will be followed Friday and Saturday after Christmas. No consensus was reached regarding the days off for Christmas and New Years.The-City.:will operate on a skeleton crew during the holidays Individual employees must contact their department head requesting time off. w are putting together orientation package for new Council candidates.

Subsequently, we retained Barry Lundberg and Brian Bachner with Barton Aschman to spend considerable time Interviewing 60 to 70 employees and doing a thorough analysis of the financial ; conditions in equipment maintenance and also maintenance procedures. Some of the key questions that are materializing are listed below: 1. Should equipment maintenance management and facilities be completely centralized?. 2. What form should the equipmentmaintenance organization take and where should -the ultimate responsibility lie? 3. How should equipment acquisition be financed? - 4. Are there any opportunities to combine the Iowa City, University of Iowa and Coralville bus operations? 5. What should be the policy on private contract maintenance of City vehicles? 6. What should be done with the Central Maintenance Facility? 7. How should the equipment maintenance operation be staffed? The Equipment Maintenance Division presently has an annual llars. The City budget of approximately one half million n approximate valueoofs approximately 170 wheeled vehicles with an app well in excess of one million dollars. It can be seen that the stakes in this study are significant and additional memorandums will be sent to you as Mr. Lundberg and Bachner pull the facts - - arch for solutions. together and help us se SUD4fARY OF INFORMATIONAL MEETING BETWEEN OLD CAPITOL ASSOCIATES, LPA, AND CITY STAFF NOVEMBER 11, 1975 I Berlin, Ed Czarnecki, ATTENDEES: Paul Alexander, John Balmer, Nea Penny Davidsen, Pat Foster, Freda Hieronymus,', Don Scatena, - Max Selzer, Maureen Sullivan, Dick Wollmershauser DISCUSSION: 1, Purpose of LPA meetings The purpose of the LPA meetings are to establish, cooperation between OCA and the City Council.

The recently reconstructed Washington -Street was opened to traffic on October 30,;1975, and the remaining site amenities, including trees and street lights, are scheduled to be included in the contract to be awarded this winter with project completion anticipated during the spring of 1976. The final demolition contract for the Urban Renewal. Program was let ,in October to the Bob Madget Company of St. Joseph, Missouri, and an auction was held which resulted in the sale of five houses in the Urban Renewal area which were deemed to be rehabilitable. Work is presently proceeding in conjunction with the Public Works and Parks and Recreation Departments to develop'a maintenance program for the central business district area. During this past month the, Shell Gas Station at the corner of Burlington and Madison Streets was acquired .through condemnation and a contract was entered into with Larry Waters for the purpose of obtaining a third appraisal on the College Block Building and;for'obtaining _review, appraisals on parcels in Blocks 95, 93, and three other parcels. It is anticipated that these review appraisals will be completed during November and that the College Block Building and other parcels can be scheduled for offering for sale in late November or early December. Housing Division As of October 31, 1975, there were 192 units under lease in the City's Section 23 Housing Program. -During the past month, 9 new applications were received and 5 units were vacated and reoccupied. Relevant activity by the Housing Commission during October included the approval by the Commission, and subsequent recommendation to the City Council, of the "Statement of policies governing participation in housing -assistance programs administered by the Iowa City Housing Authority". Fredine Branson, Chairperson of the Iowa City HousingCommission, was appointed to a two-year term on the Board of the State Housing Finance Authority. The preliminary, proposal submitted by the City for 100 units of new construction Section 8 housing was rejected by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and an appeal is being considered on this rejection at this time. 'A comprehensive rental housing survey was completed during the past month and an initial report was prepared. The purpose of this survey was to provide adequate basis for requesting an increase in the fair market rents for rental housing units under the Section 8 program. The City was notified that Project IA -22-2 (the Old Capitol Associates' 62 -unit elderly housing project) was acceptable for:conversion to Section 8, and this action has resulted in Old Capitol initiating work on the preparation Of a- Monthly Report Page 3 request for an FHA mortgage commitment. (This 62-unit elderly project was initially approved under Section 23 of the Federal Housing Act, however, the decision was made to convert to Section -8; because of.the` higher -market rents under this program.) Several corrections and changes were made to the City's application for 100 - units of existing housing under Section 8, and additional information was provided as relates to the City's request for'the-conversion of Project IA- 22-1, the-City's existing Leased Housing Program, from Section 23 to Section 8 - During the month of November, it is anticipated that a budget revision for the Section 23 Program will be completed and submitted to HUD, and that an administrative plan for administering the Section -8 Program will be completed for subsequent Council and HUD action. It is also anticipated that plans will be finalized for the conversion of Project IA-22-1 from Section 8 to Section 23. The successful implementation of the Section 8 conversion of the existing housing-program will be dependent upon positive action by HUD on the City's request fortheincrease of fair market rents. This increase, or lack thereof, will have a definite impact on the budget revision work now underway and on the planned conversion of Project IA-22-1. Conceivably, the best course of action will be to not accept an annual contributions contract from HUD on the Section 8 conversionuntil the fair market rents are increased. If thisisdone, and if the, annual contributions contract is cut, based upon the present fair market rents, it may require a; significant amount of time to then have the annual contributions contract amended. As action occurs on the above project, additional information will--be.provided.

Miller, Police Chief SUBJECT: Transmittal - October Report - For this month the report -will-be _brief and contain few: statistics. As the process forreportingbecomes'- better known throughout the Department, a standard method will be developed for the final product. The bulk of police activitiesrevolved around general - dutiesofthe Patrol Force. A number of routine calls lead to further investigation by non-uniformed_ officers: Most impressive of these investigations was `the "inquiry : into the theft of coins-:' Several hundred dollars of mint condition coins were recovered by officers of the Youth Aid Division. One subject was petitioned to Juvenile Court as a result of the investigation As a`.unit with- in; the Department, the Youth Aid Division under the gen= eral command of Captain Ken Stock has performed except- ionally well. Itis a''concept that will receive further attention and personnel reinforcement if these important - -activities continue to increase. The Patrol units have conducted several traffic and.park.- ing surveys over the last several days. Recommendations relative to possible changes in parking, lightingand signing have been forwarded to the City Manager's Office for proper referral. The S.U.I. Homecoming came'and went without causing sign- ` _-ificant disruptions within the Department. Some traffic problems have arisen asa result of the opening of Washington Street. -These _problems will prob ably become less severe as the driving public becomes more accustomed to the traffic flow and parking require— ments. The Narcotics Enforcement Unit is undergoing study. Alternative enforcement mechanisms are being discussed. An operational plan for the investigation of drug and . drug related cases will be forthcoming in, the next few weeks. St - �, 11�✓�_ DATE November 6, 1975 TO Neal Berlin, City Manager D.
