STAPF REPORT
Planning and Zoning Commission
September 2, 1976
SUBJECT: S-7626. Preliminary plat..of Eastdale
Mall located southeast of First
Avenue and northeast of Lower
Muscatine Road; date filed: 8/19/76;
4S -day limitation:. • 10/3/76.,
STAFF Mr. Dave Cahill and Mr.,Pat Harding
ANALYSIS: propose toe:subdivide the.10.06,acre
tract previously owned by;victor
Metals into 13 lots for an integrated
commercial development of stores under separate ownership interconnected:by ;
an open pedestrian mall. The conceptual plan has merit and should:prove,to:,
be very successful.
A major obstacle in what would appear as a rather unique planned commercial
development is a requirement of the Zoning Code that all lots front directly
upon a public street or upon an officially approved place.
The Board of Adjustment on August 4, 1976, granted approval of an application
submitted to designate the driveways upon which the lots would front, as
officially approved places. A staff analysis of that application was presented
in a Staff Report dated August 4, 1976 which is attached as a supplement to
this Staff Report.
The Planning and Engineering Divisions reviewed the subject plat and noted
several discrepancies with the Subdivision Code enumerated as follows:
1. The plat should be designated as a replat of all (or part) of Lot 2
of Ohls Subdivision.
2. The original lot lines of Lot 2 of Ohls Subdivision should be indicated.
3. The subdivision should indicate 13 lots and be.numbered in numerical order.
4. Private drives should be labelled as officially approved places.
S. The chord bearing and distance, radius and the arc length should be
indicated on the plat and in the description for the curve in the
boundary along First Avenue.
6. Easements should be shown for all existing and proposed public utilities.
7. A graphic scale should be provided.
8. The width of the right -o£ -way and paved surface of existing streets abutting
the subdivision should be indicated.
9. The lot dimensions of Lots 1, 11 and 12 should be shown.

STAFF REPORT
Board of Adjustment.
August 4, 1976
SUBJECT: V-7607..• Application submitted by
Mr. Dave Cahill and Mr. Pat
Harding to permit lots at 1705
First Avenue to front upon a
private drive or an "officially approved place" in lieu of upon a public
street; date filed: 7/14/76.
STAFF According to Section 8.10.3A48
ANALYSIS: of the Zoning Code, a lot is
"a parcel of land, adequate for
occupancy by a use permitted :
under this Chapter (8.10), which provides the yards, area, and'off-street
parking herein required under this Chapter, and which fronts directly _
upon a public street or upon an officially approved place'!: A lot is
also a parcel for the purpose of transfer of ownership or building develop-
ment as established in an approved and recorded subdivision plat". The
applicants propose to subdividepartof a 9.47 acre tract located north
of Lower Muscatine Road and east of First Avenue ,(see attached plan)
into lots for disposition to potential commercial buyers for development
in accordance with a preconceived development plan. The lots, however, _.
could not be subdivided without frontage upon a.public street unless
the Board of Adjustment "interprets the provisions of the Zoning Code
in such a way as will not be.contrary to public interest where.owing to
special. conditions a literal enforcement of "the provisions of this
Code will result'in unnecessary hardship, and in such a way that the
spirit of the Code shall be observed and substantial justice done
(8.10.28H.1.D)". The Board's interpretation of the ordinance would
constitute permission to allow the lots to front upon an officially'-
,approved
place. This analysis, then, will address the "special conditions" and
"public interest" in this case to determine whether there is sufficient
grounds in granting such approval.
The applicants, purchasers of the Victor Metals estate, propose to convert
the existing building into an enclosed mall and, in addition, to construct an
open mall with stores linked to the enclosed mall by an exterior pedestrian walkway.
In shopping center developments, this is the most desirable method of
providing an integration of various types of retail stores for customer
convenience. Such planned developments can most effectively be accomplished
if the shopping center is'under single ownership. That is not to say,,
however, that a planned shopping center cannot be developed under multiple_ .
ownership if tight restrictive covenants are established.
The applicant's dilemma is the development of aplanned. shopping center-,.,..
under the multiple ownership of lots having frontage upon.a public street.
They have been informed by the City that cars would not be.allowed io
back out from parking stalls onto a public street ;'and 'it was suggested
that all parking spaces and driveways be, private. j_
® The proposal of a planned commercial shopping center incorporating the
design features contemplated would definitely be in the public interest,
and this situation is sufficiently unique that relief would be warranted.
STAFF Based upon the above analysis,
RECOMMENDATION: it is the 'staff's recommendation
that the Zoning Code be inter-
preted in such a way ,as will
not be contrary to public interest where owing to special conditions by
permitting lots to front upon a driveway designated as an officially approved'
place:

APPEAL TO THE
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
DATE July 149 1976
We, Dave Cahill and Pat Harding of 1705 lst Ave Iowa City .
having met with the City Planning Staff, Traffic Engineer and,the
Planning and Zoning Commission for discussions and their recommend-
ations regarding the desirability of dedicated streets versus
private drives in the proposed Eastdale Mall Addition to Iowa City.
The proposed Eastdale Mall adjacent to the southeast side of
First Avenue, the former Victor Metals site, would accommodate
retail businesses and professional services.
The traffic generated by the development would require parking
/j spaces in the proposed streets in addition to off-street parking.
�J The City Staff, considering the importance of traffic movement
on First Avenue, along with additional street maintenance on the
proposed streets and the needs of the developer, advised the
Owners of the proposed Eastdale Mall to provide access to the
development via private drives from First Avenue and Lower Muscatine
Road.
Therefore it would be necessary to deviate from the requirement
of the Zoning Ordinance wherein each lot must front on a public
street.
Therefore in accordance with Section 8.10.28.H.1.D of the Zoning
Ordinance,"To interpret the provisions of this Chapter in such a
way as will not be contrary to public interest where owing to
special conditions a literal enforcement of the
in such provisions of this

RE: Eastdale Mall
FACTS
DATE: September 17, 1976
The owners have obtained a subdivision plat for the Eastdale
Mall. All of the lots are under two acres except Lot 13 which
contains an existing building which the owners intend to extensively
renodel.
�� : a. d. guy.
Must the owner camply with Chapter 9.52, Municipal Code of
Iowa, Large Scale Non -Residential Development, with regard to
Lot 133
The owner wishes to secure a building permit for an office,
cvmrercial or industrial building on a tract greater than two (2)
acres: therefore, he must cxnply with chapter 9.52.
DISCUSSION
Section 301(a) of the Uniform Building Code states: "No person,
firm or corporation shall erect, construct, enlarge, alter,
any building or structure in the city, or cause the same to be done,
without first obtaining a separate building permit for each such build-
ing or structure frau the Building Official." Chapter 9.52 applies
whenever the owner or owners of a tract of land wishes to secure a
building penntt for an office, cc mercial or industrial building on
a tract over two acres.
Since a building permit must be obtained for minor repairs, it
would be advisable to amend Chapter 9.52 so that its provisions apply
only to major improvwmts.

TO: City Council
FROM: City Manager
RE: Fire Pumper Bids
Enclosed is a memorandum from the Fire Chief providing a summary of bids
received for the new pumper which is budgeted under capital outlay in the
current operating budget. It is proposed that, in accordance with Chief
Keating's recommendation, the award be made to American LaFrance with the
understanding that an appropriate budget adjustment will have to be made
later in the year to accommodate the additional cost in the amount of
$8,549. As Revenue Sharing monies were originally allocated for this pumper,
it appears that an additional allocation from that source would be appropriate.

September 16, 1976
SUBJECT: S-7629. Preliminary and Final Large
Scale Non -Residential Development
plan of "Kens", located north of
Highway 1 and west of Orchard Street;
date filed: 8/30/76; 45 -day limitation:
10/14/76.
STAFF The 3.63 acre premises owned by
ANALYSIS: Sherkin Inc., a nominee corporation,
and Shirley A. Ranshaw, is presently
ieby ccu
Ken's Farm and Auto Supply store andoWestern World sThesettwloubuildings
were constructed previously under separate ownerships, Ken's Distributing
COmpanY and Kenneth li. Ranshaw and Shirley A. Ranshaw. For financial
reasons the property has now been placed in single ownership. The owner
is desirous of securing it building permit to construct a building in
between the existing two buildings, but because the subject tract is
greater than two acres in area, and now under single ownership, an LSNRD
plan of the tract meeting the requirements of Chapter 9.52 of the Municipal
Code must be approved by the City previous to the issuance of a building
permit.
The planning and engineering divisions have reviewed the combined preliminary
and final LSNRD plan submitted noting several additions and changes which
should be incorporated in the plan or supportive documents as follows:
1. Parking facilities to include parking spaces, driveways, aisles,
access points, curbs, traffic circulation patterns (one-way or
two-way) and the capacity of the parking area should be illus-
trated on the plan and completely dimensioned.
2. Since special requirements may be imposed by the City with
respect to curbs it is suggested that raised medians be
provided at the ends of parking islands and that curbs be
provided along driveways to facilitate traffic movement
and avoid problems encountered as in the Mall shopping
center. Stich requirements have been imposed in LSNRD
Plans such as Plamore Lanes.
3. Landscaping the premises is not a requirement of the LSNRD
ordinance. However, the proposed methods of buffering the
development area to adjacent land uses is a specific require-
ment. An application had previously been submitted to the
Board of Adjustment for a variance in the rear yard set back
for buildings constructed on the tract. At that time, adjacent
property owners had submitted a petition in support of a variance
1604 .
if the rear yard was retained as a green strip but indicated they
were not in favor of a planting screen along; their property lines
common to the boundary of the tract. Arguably, the 736 foot long
building would be an effective barrier to any commercial activity.
It is recommended, however, that the tract be screened along the
north boundary line beyond the extremities of the building. Land
adjacent to the tract on the east and west and across the street
to the south is presently zoned for commercial development.
4. A sidewalk agreement for construction of sidewalks along Orchard
Street and Highway 1 should be submitted.
S. An intended development time schedule should be submitted.
STAFF It is the Staff's recommendation
RfCODN1I:NDAT10\: that consideration of the subject
plan be deferred pending the revision
Of the plan to incorporate the above
items.
