SUNIMARY OF DISCUSSION AND FORMAL ACTIONS TAKEN
1. The meeting was brought to order by Chairperson Conley. It was moved
by Dennis and seconded by Janiuk to approve the minutes of June 2, 1976.
Motion carried.
2. Committee Concerns - It was moved by Janiuk and seconded by Dennis to
amend the agenda to discuss committee concerns as Item I. Motion
carried. Points brought out and discussed are as follows:
a. Some members feel that Committee conversations are too much
dominated by a few people and that the Chairperson should try to
bring out everyone's opinion and prevent domination of the
conversation.
The Chairperson indicated that he will try to leave more dead
space on the floor to give any member who wants a chance to
speak up.
b. It was suggested that a possible problem with members not speaking
up is that they don't feel they are familiar enough with what is
being discussed. Dennis suggested that members make more use of
Julie's office as an information center to gain insight on current
issues.
c. Sub -committees should submit a FY 1977 calendar of projected
activities. Conley and Rolnick will work with Julie on this.
d. Sub -committees should come to CCN meeting to report on goals and
why they are doing what they are doing. Copies of sub -committee
reports and information should be at hand so that members can
up -date themselves on the various functions.
Handwritten sub -committee reports and information, that need to be
typed and copied, can be done at the City through Julie's office.

C. It was brought out that it is everyone's job on CCN to gather and
dispense information for the general public. It was emphasized
that representation of public opinion should not be over -shadowed
with too much personal bias.
One method of dispensing information could be a constant series
of articles to the mass news media. It was suggested that
sub -committees be responsible for these written reports.
Hauer emphasized the importance of oral communication and noted
the finding of applicants to fill CCN vacancies as an example of
where more talking would help.
3. Arch. Barrier Report has been typed and is ready for printing. Copies
will be mailed to members prior to July 13th Council meeting.
4. Amended HCUA Budget - Council had approved and accepted the amended
budgets as shown in handout. Discussions included the following topics:
a. Urban Renewal Land Acquisition - .Julie stated that monies equal
to the proposed 20% cut by HUD will be used to purchase Urban
Renewal land from Council. By Federal law all profit from resale
of land will automatically be put back into HCDA projects.
b. Comprehensive Plan - How and when funds would be used for day care
center planning, zoning evaluation, sludge treatment studies, and
the Ralston Creek Study were questioned by Bolnick. Julie stated
that money is available for these studies but the City is not
currently staffed for additional studies and no plans for the first
three are underway, as yet. Further Council action and interest
is necessary before the projects will be acted on. Additional
staff is needed. Hibbs suggested that by using resources available
within the community, to get these studies done (such as graduate
students, consultants, etc.) a high level of expertise might be
obtained in a shorter period of time.
5. Communications Subcommittee Report - Discussion of potential newsletter
to transmit i oto pu ic.
a. Discussion of sub -committee member being designated to summarize
activities for press releases.
6. Human Resources Sub -Committee - Duties were redefined and the sub-
committee will be response e for day care needs and human needs studies.
7. Comb. Plan Sub -Committee will initiate work on commercial recycling,
zoning evaluation and sludge treatment and generally monitor comprehensive
planning activities.

Commissioners expressed their views concerning this development. Chairman
Ogesen stated he believed a sales brochure
barn would be demolished; however, he considdered iteaelandmark aseitsisna
notable piece of lands
factorily minimcape of past history. He felt the developers satis-
ized the bad features and emphasized the good features.
Kanmebecause rmeyer favored recycling the barn by means of the proposed condominium
the residents o nits thisrarea had boughthe other their property with the understanding. felt that most of
-3 -
it would remain a single-family residence; therefore, he was probably against
approving the preliminary plat. Blum stated he was not convinced that
the majority of the residents were opposed, and those that were could
remedy the situation through Courts by breach of contract. He felt
the major issue was that it might not be the best utilization of land
due to staff objections. Cain concurred with Blum and further expressed
her strong desire for preservation of the existing buildings. Vetter
commented she had seen some rather innovative things done with barns in
the New England region. As for privacy, she noted Iowa City was a hilly
area, and no one could be guaranteed it. Jakobsen was against the develop-
ment because of incompatability of the -PAD design. A motion was made
by Cain, seconded by Blum, to recommend to the City Council approval of
5-7614, revised preliminary plat and PAD of Village Green, Part 6. Diotion
carried, 4/2, with Jakcbsen and Kammermeyer voting against.
There was some discussion as to whether or not Chapter 414.5 of the Code of
Iowa would apply to this particular development. A motion was made by
Cain, seconded by Vetter, to request the assistance of the Legal Department
in determining whether or not the PAD would require extraordinary -majority
vote of Council. Motion -carried unanimously.
5-7610. Fountain Subdivision - Riverdale Addition. Preliminary plat of
aTib+ acre subdivision located between Old Sand Road and the Iowa River,
south of the Iowa City corporate limits. Application submitted by
Jean Fountain; Frail Trott, Attorney. Date filed: 4/28/76; 45 -day limitation:
waived. Referred to Park and Recreation Commission and to Riverfront Commis-
sion.
A motion was made by Blum, seconded by Jakobsen, to defer the approval of
5-7610, preliminary plat of the Fountain Subdivision - Riverdale Addition
until the requirements requested by Staff are met. Commissioners discussed
the impact of the 100 year flood plain on this area. It was stated that
Keith Nath, of the Iowa Natural Resources Council, indicated the flood
heighth for this area had been estimated to be 641 feet above sea level.
Several Commissioners felt this estimate was wrong and that measures
should be taken to require the I.N.R.C. to make an accurate study of the
situation. Vetter mentioned that because of bad flooding and earthquakes
in other states, it might be wise to use this area for recreational purposes
rather than place buildings on it. Kam ermeyer questioned the suitability
of the land for septic tanks. Don Schmeiser, Senior Planner, indicated
he had spoken with County officials regarding this matter and was told the
purcolation of the soil was adequate, but a statement concerning health
factors had not been obtained as of yet. The motion was voted upon and
carried unanimously to defer this matter.

S-7616. Preliminary plat of Woodland Hills Addition located approximately
two miles north of Interstate 80 and east of Highway 1 in Section 30 of
Newport Township in Johnson County; date filed: 6/18/76; 45 -day limitation:
8/2/76.
A motion was made by Cain, seconded by Jakobsen, to defer S-7616, approval
of preliminary plat of Woodland Hills Addition until existing requirements
are met and until street right-of-way may be obtained from purchaser; and
furthermore, to request assistance from the Legal Department concerning
use of restraints on the auditor's plat. Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of the vacation of all or part of Person Avenue north of
Park Road; requested by Mr. Richard Tucker, attorney for the estate of
Ms. Mary Hands.
Attorney Bill Bartley appeared on behalf of Dr, and Mrs. Lewis Jacques
who owns property along Park Road. He expressed their concern that if
the Ferson right-of-way were to be vacated and disposed, the Zoning Code
would prohibit them from obtaining a building permit for their property
(Lot #10) since it would not front a public street or an "officially
approved place." He further stated if Gould Street was also to be vacated,
there would be no practical access to Lot #10; and the City might be sub-
jected to a damage suit. In light of the fact the 1941 vacation agreement
appeared to be invalid, he urged Commissioners to support retention of the
public title of the center 20 feet and to protect easements within the
vacated portion of the right-of-way of Ferson Avenue. He further encouraged
them to identify Ferson Avenue as an "officially approved place."
Richard Tucker, attorney for the estate of his. Mary Hands, appeared and
expounded on his letter dated January 28, 1976, regarding the request for
the vacation of Ferson Avenue. He stated he essentially concurred with
Attorney Bill Bartley and that he would like to have the original 1941
vacation agreement enacted since property owners of the area had been
paying taxes on the 20 feet of the property they believed they owned.
Don Schmeiser, Senior Planner, informed that if Ferson was to remain a
street, it should be constructed as a street with a 50 foot right-of-way.
This would give the City title to land on which Ms. Mary Hands' garage
was built. Residents of the property would be assessed for the construction
of the street and for street maintenance and snow removal.
Richard Pegnetters, Dr, and Mrs. Lewis Jacques, and Steffi Hite had no
reservations on continuing their maintenance of the street. Bob Bowlin,
Assistant City Attorney, appeared and suggested ways to alleviate the
problem of vacation.

The previous amended motion was passed with a 5/1 vote. Blum voted against
the motion because of his desire to have matter further publicized by a
sign.
Attorney Bill Bartley warned Commissioners against approving vacations or
closing of the CBD streets. He stated this area had been given to establish
the Capitol Building. Although lots were auctioned off in 1838, streets
remained in possession of the State, so he stated.
Commissioners expressed desire to pursue the matter of using signs to
indicate possible subdivisions, LSRD, vacations and other land use changes.
Blum will submit a proposal at the next meeting.
It was announced the subcommittee designated to prepare recommendations on
the revision of the ordinance for Ml and M2 zones would meet July 6th,
1976, at 4:15 p.m.
Don Schmeiser, Senior Planner, indicated a letter had been sent to Sam Fahr,
Chairman of the Riverfront Commission, regarding the IV' zone. This matter
will be an agenda item for the next meeting. There was some discussion
on the procedure of approaching the Iowa City School Board about the over-
crowding problem in some of the schools.
A motion was made by Jakobsen, seconded by Kammermeyer, to adjourn the meeting
at 9:40 p.m. Motion passed unanimously.

It. Comnittee Reports
I. Outreach Advocacy - Davidson reported on the efforts that had been made
by Smith and herself in securing food for the Indian encampment. Smith
reported that the encampment had moved to the Linn County area because
of the cost of transportation from the Sand Point campsites to the
Court (louse in Cedar Rapids and because the campsites soil was very sandy
and did not hold the tent stakes securely. The local support committee
is still functioning to assist in providing food and other needs for the
Indian encampment.
Madison reported that Don Sanders of. Northwestern Bell would be providing
sensitivity training on racial discrimination during the first and third
weeks of July. Madison, Woodard and Ragland plan to attend one of these
sessions.

Action Program is being written. This draft would be circulated to
division and department heads for input before the final draft would be
brought to the Commission in August.
3. Ordinance Revision - Bowlin reported that legal intern Steve Segebarth
has been assigned to the drafting of the revised ordinance. The completion
date for this draft was set for the July meeting. The commission also
discussed methods of informing the public on the content of the newly
drafted ordinance. The suggestions given were to mail the draft to advocacy
groups and also to organizations whose members represent potential
respondants during the complaint process. A newspaper series on the
revised ordinance and a public meeting were also suggested as ways of
disseminating information about the ordinance.
4. Twenty informal complaints were received between May 17 and June 18. The
investigation of two cases (1i-7515 and H-7604) were completed. One complaint
of sex discrimination in employment was formalized.

annual budget of $24;560.
Summary of Discussion
Berlin stated the minutes of the Youth Committee
the Committee's recommendations for U.A.Y. mutes did not clearly reflect
Committee could clarify several questions whichtwould er eallow the was staffatso the
o prepare
a contract with U.A.Y.
1. Was the Committee's intent to restrict U.A.Y. to do Outreach only?
2. Pro the Committee recommend that the City find U.A.Y. for an Outreach
8 only.
3. Could U.A.Y. seek finding from other sources to a) expand Outreach
Programs or 2) add programs that had been drooped because funding was
reduced?
Swaim stated when he approached United Way to seek funding he indicated the money
would be used to pick up programs that had been cut by the City. He also indicated
he spoke from the top of his head because the U.A.Y, Board may not support additional
Programs. Swaim stated the funds would be used
not for additional programs, but
to add staff to provide Outreach in the smaller communities in the county.
Schabilion stated he felt sensitive that U.A.Y. was not able to provide programs other
than Outreach. U.A.Y.'s philosophy in the past had been to maintain flexibility
and fill in gaps where other agencies are not offering programs. Schabilion felt
the Committee recommended that the City funds would support Outreach programs.
Bray commented U.A.Y.'s total budget was analyzed with the objective that the
Committee wished to fund U.A.Y. He felt perhaps the entire corporate structure
should be redefined. Almost the entire funding of U.A.Y. will be coming from the
City. The question is if the City seeks to define the contract or control U.A.Y.
by means of a contract.
Schabilion felt the City funds were only enough to support staff salaries.
Berlin stated he wasn't sure how financial responsibility would be achieved if
U.A.Y. spent money other than salaries anyway they wanted to. He had difficulty
assessing what was being accomplished. Accomplishments must be measurable in order
to relate U.A.Y. progress to the Council.
Swaim felt an evaluation process could be based on M. Schabilion stated the U:A.Y.
Board would feel comfortable having an evaluation process included in the contract.
Berlin stated statistics were meaningless without success determinates.
1t is more difficult to determine success because of the type of clients U.A.Y.
handles.
Flinn questioned the status of establishing records and setting goals with each kid.
She explained, establishing goals was the only way to measure a client's success.
Swaim stated U.A.Y. was keeping intake records for each client:
0 0
Berlin commented the loose structure of U.A.Y. concerns him. Swaim stated U.A.Y.
had developed goals. Berlin stated that an evaluation technique within a, specific
time frame was necessary. Statistics of the number of contacts indicate what the
agency is doing but it does not measure success.
Stockman stated part of a success determinant was how effectively U.A.Y..dealt with
other agencies. The purpose of U.A.Y., she felt, was to identify kids with problems
and refer them to appropriate agencies.
Flinn questioned if U.A.Y. was able to identify the number of established contacts, identify
the client's problem, and indicate which agency the client was referred to.
The intake form and a questionnaire for young people were methods of evaluating U.A.Y. Is
effectiveness that were developed by the Director.
Flinn questioned if follow-up was currently offered.
Schabilion indicated U.A.Y.'s focus was on Outreach, that .this was the service most
needed and this program was the one best performed
Bray felt the Committee was not able to reach a consensus on the discussion at this
point. No agreement was reached on the amount of service„ on the evaluation mechanism
needed, or the financial accountability as they existed with Social Services and
U.A.Y. Agreement was reached on the definition of Outreach. He felt that if the
City were simply purchasing services, there would not be a disagreement.The whole
philosophy of U.A.Y. was at issue, lie felt it was difficult to understand what
U.A.Y. is doing.
Schreiber related to the Committee some of the comments from the community concerning

Bray moved to recommend to the Council funding U.A.Y., but limiting U.A.Y. by
a contract to Outreach Programs. Stockman seconded. Swaim asked for clarification
of funding that the City provides. Could U.A.Y. seek funding from other agencies
Bray withdrew his motion.
Bray moved to recommend to the Council that 1) U.A.Y., a corporate entity, be
contracted to perform Outreach services (as defined by the Committee) in the
community, 2) that the contract not exceed an annual budget of $24,560 appropriated
by the City with the intention that the figure be 100; of the annual budget for
U.A.Y. Stockman seconded the motion.
Schabilion questioned the reasoning to limit United Way funds. Purington approved
of an Outreach worker in Johnson County but saw the need to limit the program
this fiscal year.
Opposed - Smithey, Schabilion and Swaim. Motion passed.

Expanding the Area of Operation for the Housing Authority by
Cooperative Agreement
1. The housing Comanission, at a meeting on June 16, 1976, recom7rended
that the Council pursue Cooperative Agreements with the City of
Coralville, University Heights and the Board of Supervisors for
Johnson County unincorporated areas and to simultaneously pursue an
arrangement with the University of Iowa to make Housing Assistance
Payments for selected families living in University Married Student
Housing. (See attached extract of draft minutes)
2. The above recommendation was a result of inquiries being made as
to why the Authority does not make Housing Assistance Payments outside
the City limits, suggestions from staff members of HUD and receipt of
applications from families living in Married Student Housing controlled
by the University of Iowa. Further, the conversion of Section 23
Leased Housing and/or implementation of Section 8 Housing Assistance
Payments Program in this area was considered.
3. The Section 23 Leased housing Program limited assistance to those
families living in units over which code enforcem�t could be exercised
by the Authority. Further, units had to be on the tax rolls and could
not be owned by a governmental agency, i.e. the University of Iowa.
With the adoption and implementation of Section 8 Housing Assistance
P � P '
aymen-s--gram several changes occurred.
a. Under the "Finders Keepers Policy" the Public Housing
Authority is now authorized to make assistance payments on behalf
of an eligible family in any area wherein the P.H.A. is authorized
to execute contracts.
b. The restrictions concerning governmental ownership and tax
rolls have been eliminatc"l. There are certain restrictions to
prevent double subsidy; however, these would not include University
of Iowa Married Student housing nor Mark IV Apartments.
4. Th•. area wherein the P.H.A. is authorized to execute contracts can
be exp. °ed through a document entitled "Cooperative Agreement". This
is bei_: practiced in Iowa. For example, one P.H.A. in southwest Iowa
op.ratc.; in several counties. The Des Moines low Rent Housing Agency
has Cooperative Agreements with the City of west Des Moines and the
Polk County Board of Supervisors. (See Attached)
Paae 2 • •
5. Recommend Council approve, by simple motion, that the staff be
authorized to initiate discussions aryl negotiations with the City
of Coralville, University Heights and the Johnson County Board of
Supervisors on Cooperative Agreements which would permit the Authority
to make Housing Assistance Payments on behalf of eligible families
living in their area of jurisdiction.
6. R_ecamlend Council approve, by simple notion, that the staff
initiate discussions with the appropriate representative from the
University of Iowa which would permit the Authority to make Housing
Assistance Payments on behalf of selected families living in
University owned housing. In this connection, the University thru
its financial aids section would play a predominant role in determin-
ing which farriles receive the assistance - and this would be limited.
A Cooperative Agreement would not be required in this instance.

DATE: July 6, 1976
TO: City Manager and City Council
FROM: Lyle G. Seydel, Housing Coordinator J%_
RE: Management of Autumn Park Apartments
1. Last September MID STATES Development, Inc. submitted a
proposal to HUD for the construction of 64 units on Willow
Street and American Legion Road. In the submission, they
indicated a desire to have the project managed by the local
Housing Agency. This concept was favorably viewed by the
Housing Commission and the Council. At the Council meeting
of February 3, 1976 the Council voted 4/3 to further
investigate whether the Authority should actually manage
the project. Additional study has been accomplished. The
subject wac discussed with HUD management staff representa-
tives and sample contracts obtained. HUD is in favor of
this concept. Additional discussions with Mr. Jacobsen
were held and the attached contract will be satisfactory to
his firm.
./
\P
2. MID STATES has now submitter) its detailed drawings to HUD
for approval and a firm commitment from FHA should be issued
on/about July 9, 1976. The next step will be the final closing
which should occur during the week of July 12th. At that
point, MID STATES must submit a detailed rianagement Plan and
the Management Contract.
3. The Contract was last discussed with Hill Jacobsen on
June 29, 1976. He indicated a strong desire to contract with
the Authority; however, until he has received our proposal
for comparison with other offers a decision cannot be reached.
4. Attached is a draft contract which spells out responsi-
bilities and has a rather lengthy list of tasks to be performed
and the relationship of the partiesinvolved. she contract
calls for MID STATES to pay 58 of gross
oughly
$800. per month to the Agent for performing the management
functions. The Housing Commission has recommended to the
Council that the Authority undertake this task. The Housing
Division, Department of Community Development can perform
this function without an increase in current authorized staff.
5. Recommend the Council approve the attached contract and
authorize the Mayor to execute same.

by each tenant with the terms of his lease. Voluntary
compliance will be emphasized. The Agent will counsel

with such actions will be paid out of the Rental Agency
Account as Project expenses.

Plan, the Resident Managers will have duties of the

their activities in the interest of good overall
management.

Federal taxes and assessments incidents to the

furnished rent-free to the Resident Manager will be
treated as a cost to the Project.
C. The Agent will establish and follow an employment
Policy that affords residents of the Project maximum
opportunities for employment in the management and
operation of the Project and, to the extent consistent
with that consideration, employment opportunities to
lower-income persons in the area. While personnel will

Agent will make a conscientious effort to provide
special assistance and training for Project residents
and members of minority groups who are not initially
qualified.
