City Clerk P Mayor =ark w:.;Tissioners e. the purchase of land as an addit`o^. to Hickory Hill Park There is a large parcel of land due east of Hickory Hill Park w..ich is now for sale.

When the bulldozers arrive and the apartments go up it will be too late. 0 • • 9 . INFORMAL COUNCIL DISCUSSION ' MARCH 22, 1976 1:30 P.M. The Iowa City City Council met in informal session on the 22nd day of March, 1976, at 1:30 P.M. in the Conference Room at the Civic Center. Councilmembers present: Vevera, Foster, Balmer, Neuhauser, Selzer, Perret. Absent: deProsse. Staffinembers present: Berlin, Stolfus, Schreiber, Plastino. Mayor Neuhauser presiding. The Mayor announced that the first item on the agenda would be discussion of the agenda items for the 23rd. The City Mana- ger advised that the grading mentioned in item 4.a. had been taken care of. For item 4.c.1., he advised that a Sign Commit- tee is reviewing the sign ordinance. Council discussed bid- ding procedure and use of local competent firms for subcon- tracting; optional bid for light plugs on Washington Street contract, and traffic signal installation. Signal installa- tion will be discussed at the formal meeting on the 23rd. The problems connected with the sewer for Item #17, Alberhasky property, were pointed out, the City Manager noting if there is no easement, the City should acquire one. The number of bidders and amounts of bids were requested for Item #12, Park Road Bridge Deck Repair Project. Councilman Vevera advised that he would bring up reconsideration of the funding for the City Park Zoo at the formal meeting. The reason for the park employees' trip to Wichita was explained. They will be manu- facturing wooden playground equipment, and the process used at Wichita was demonstrated. The City Manager advised that an item for next week's agenda would be Jaycees Trashbag Project. The next agenda item was discussion of the Joint Law En- forcement Center. The Mayor noted that after the presentation, the Council could decide on their commitment. Architect Dick Pattschull introduced partners Roland Wehner and Bill Nowysz. They have prepared a proposal for the County Supervisors, which has been approved, the bond issue is proposed for the June pri- mary ballot, and the County is asking the City to join in. He pointed out the features on each floor of the proposal, and presented a pamphlet with information. There would be 170 park- ing spaces; the policy for their use has not been decided. He called attention to the difference in square footage in the present Court House, 25,000 square feet, and 160,250 square feet in their proposal. Of the total building, 258 is for circulation and 508 is planned for parking. Two more stories could be added. Of the shared areas, 708 would be for police and 308 for County. The previous study information was used, except that the administrative areas were included in this pro- posal. One question discussed was the role of the supervisors Pi Page 2 • Council Discussion March 22, 1976 in the contractual arrangements concerning the operating ex- penses of the building, and contractual operations, the real operations; and it was the City Manager's understanding that the Supervisors will have no part to play in those two matters, at least in negotiations. They will be negotiated between the two departments. Pattschull pointed out that they were in- vestigating having a separate party be involved with running the area concerning records and communications. The interim plan for the sheriff's department would be to build a ware- house -type structure on the Maintenance Shop grounds, at a cost of $150,000, use it for 24 months, and after the Joint Building is ready, use this interim building as a storage building. Architect Parrish arrived. Pattschull noted that it is possible to include a firing range at a later date; the issue is unre- solved between the Police Department and the Sheriff. On the handout, page 12, the area and cost distribution analysis was outlined. Pattschull pointed out that assuming 708 City use of consolidated functions (County, $385,551 for 6,638 s.f. and City, $652,280 for 11,900 s.f.), and the fair share based on assessed valuations would be the County 50.8328, and the City 49.1688, $510,280; there is an imbalance of $142,000, and proposed the procedure for the City to pick up • the imbalance would be by paying $1,000 a month for 20 years. The City Manager pointed out the current pending legislation which might change the percentage breakdown and the imbalance would run the other way. The maintenance costs for the City would be $26,775 a year. Page 13 depicted the project cost comparisons and advantages over phased construction by a single project. The number of base radios was discussed, as was the capacity of the County for a seven million dollar bond issue. They are consulting their bond counsel now, and will have an answer next week. The City Manager reported that in his opinion the layout is workable and sensible, the proposal is viable in the long run. Not totally resolved are the financing and cont,:actuai arrangements as to the operating costs and operations of the building. Parrish explained that the 708 use of the joint facility was figured on the size of the departments, and does not include the detention areas. It was noted that this bond issue would not affect the City's bonding capacity, and it was also pointed out that this proposal would not take any property off the tax rolls. In answer to a question, the City Manager replied that the community would obtain better law enforcement, but would be paying more money for it. Also this would prob- ably not save staffing. Reasons for doing this project would • • • • • Page 3 include a benefit in is the alternative?" for June is that each costs and interest. 9 Council Discussion March 22, 1976 efficiency and consideratio:i of, ,What The reason the referendum is proposed Year's delay will increase construction costsThetCouncil asked the City Manager for a ,is of how this gWil I w and with shared comparison of impact the Citacilities, and for an analy- c900e00ncluded for equipment.
