Iona 52-940 119 — i33-3fi.C5 29 November 1976 The Honorable Mary Neuhauser, Mayor �� Q City of Iowa City Civic Center 1\0V301976 Iowa City, Iowa AI!D)is_ S T G L F U S Dear Mrs. Neuhauser: CITY CLERK The Board of Directors of the Iowa City Community School District voted unanimously at our meeting last evening to voice strong concern about the safety needs during any widening and/or expansion of Muscatine Avenue. The safety Of young people in our sch Robert Lucas Elementary School iool system who utilize the affected inter- sections for the purposes of attending South East Junior High School and s a major concern of all of us. Now is the time, in our judgment, to voice our concerns and recommend precautions that could be taken to make certain no young person is injured or loses life because of inadequate safety measures at these critical intersections. The most critical intersections are those at Muscatine and First Avenues and Muscatine Avenue and Southlawn Drive. Our Board of Directors strongly recommends the following safety features for these intersections: 1. Regular traffic safety lights are essential. We are opposed to the traffic safety lights which provide a push button for pedestrians to change the lights for crossing. This irregularity in the light change patterns creates an unsafe crossing for the children because motorists are accustomed to a green light and are likely to be less cautious than if the traffic light is one that changes from green to red colors in a normal time pattern. We would not be opposed to a flashing caution light at the intersection of Muscatine Avenue and Southlawn Drive. 2. A "washboard surface" in the street on the east side of the intersection of Southlawn Drive and Muscatine Avenue (by the American Legion building) at the crest of the hill would remind drivers that a school crossing is near. 3. Bicycle lanes require "curb cuts" to permit safe crossing at the school crosswalks. 4. No right turns should be allowed at the intersections of Muscatine and First Avenues and Muscatine Avenue and Southlawn Drive. Young people need the safety that comes with prohibiting right turns on red signals at these two critical crossings. IOWA CITY PUTS THE STUDENT FIRST 2. 3,G Page 2 29 November 1976 The Honorable Mary Neuhauser, Mayor 5. A speed limit of 25 miles per hour should be established in an appro- priate school zone near the intersection of Muscatine Avenue and Southlawn Drive. The widening of Muscatine Avenue will increase speed of traffic without appropriate speed restrictions. 6. A crossing guard will be required at the intersection of Muscatine Avenue and Southlawn Drive if only a flashing caution light is installed. The Board of Directors realizes that the City Council and the city adminis- trative staff are interested in the safety of the young people who will be using crossing walks at critical intersections described above. We would be glad to pursue further any of our concerns with the City Council in the immediate future as we work together to plan safe traffic crossings for the Youth in our community.

Timmerman: Thank you for vour letter expressing the concern of the Board of Directors a about the reconstruction of Muscatine Avenue. The latest design of Avenue incorporates several features which will aid safety. These include permanent Plastic crosswalk marking stripes and construction of a four -foot wide sidewalk on the north side running from First Avenue to Juniper and con- struction of a combined bikeway -sidewalk on the south side running from First Avenue to Scott Boulevard. Both sidewalk's will be separated from the pave- ment by a parkway. we know the Board has concerns about the signalization at First Adenue and Muscatine and about other safety measures at Southlawn and Muscatine. I would like to suggest that the City staff meet with you so that these and any other items can be discussed in more detail. The City designers believe they have explored all feasible alternates and have developed a design that provides for maximum safety consistent with operational considerations. It may be appropriate sometime in the future for the School design and District to retain an independent consultant to review the city provide suggestions for improvements in the design. The city would welcome such a review and this would seem to be an appropriate way to resolve any issues that remain in question after our meeting. Sincerely, Mary c.

It sets forth as best we can the results of several conversations with persons living in the neighborhood of the Lexington Avenue dip, and includes our considered opinions as to solutions in our own neighborhood. We were heartened by two results of the earlier meeting; first, we greatly appreciated your sympathetic approach to out problem, second, the increased police attention to our traffic problem. As noted, we are pleased by this and we hope you will convey this to Mr. Miller. We hope that after you have had an opportunity to review our proposals you will advise us how we might best pur- sue the matter. Sincerely, R. L. Dryer Lowell Cross PIrs. Mary Neuhauser Mayor, Iowa City Dear Mrs. Neuhauser, Pursuant to conclusions reached at our meeting with you and others, on October 25, 1976, Mr. Lowell Cross and I have ex- plored the function of the "rumble strips,, installed on the Lexington Avenue dip. You may recall this was to explore the Potential value of rumble strips in relieving the acute traffic problems in our own neighborhood. In the interim, we have also received a communication_ from Mr. Plastino, including an ab- stract summarizing experience with road humps (speed bumps) from the town of Crowthorne, England. We would like to comment on these developments. 1. Following the October 25 meeting, we drove over the Lexington Avenue rumble strip, at a speed of approximately 25 mph. The only sensations vie noted wexeal"la slight vibration in the steering wheel and 2- a modest noise level within the Passenger compartment of the automobile. 2. During the same meeting, the name of Dr. Charles Wunder was cited as the "resident expert". We discussed the matter With him at some length over the telephone. Dr. Wunder is of the Opinion that the rumble strip is not very effective, but he qualified that opinion by noting the strip is inadequate in both extent and location. He stated his further opinion that the cuts should have included a considerably longer length of the pave- ment and added that by its location at the very bottom of the dip it had little preventive value. Finally, he indicated that he could say very little about the noise generated by vehicles passiing over the strip, since his own residence is located a con- siderable distance from it. 3. From our own observations, on October 25 and later, we agree with Dr. Wunder that the strip is indeed too small and is not placed so as to vrarn motorists to slow down until they are at the bottom of the dip. Further, we are of the opinion that by its very nature, the Lexington Avenue dip is one of the scenic wonders of Iowa City; the problems generated there are of a wholly different nature than those of the more prosaic inter- section of Glendale Road and Seventh Avenue, Own blind spots, carries a much greater load The latter has its of traffic and in- cludes many turning vehicles. 0 • 4. Since Dr. Wunder could not speak to the problem of noise generated by the rumble strip, we did address questions to Mrs. Eloise Janurarg, whose residence is immediately adjacent to the Lexington Avenue installation. She was of the opinion that the problem of noise was a significant nuisance as far as she and her husband were concerned. She stated they had glassed in a previously screened porch to protect their privacy. She stated further her opinion that the traffic nuisance had not been abated by the strip, and that it constituted something of a hazard to very young children coasting down the hill in wagons, etc. (She also mentioned that when the dangers of this were mentioned to the parents of the youngsters involved, they were annoyed with her for calling the police about the problem.) 5. Several points are worth mentioning regarding Mrs. January's comments. First, it appears that in the Lexington Avenue neighborhood, as in any other, opinions as to just hat con- stitutes an objectionable noise level varies widely, as do opinions as to what is safe or unsafe. We note also that the traffic load in the Lexington Avenue neighborhood and our own are very different, as was demonstrated by the data provided through Mr. Plastino's maps. No turns are made in the Lexington Avenue dip, but they are frequently made in our own case (again, this was confirmed by the public traffic surveys). While the rumble strip undoubtedly generates some noise, the frequency distribution of this sound is very different from the higher frequencies of squealing tires, which is much more objectionable to the human ear. Further it is clear that the sound .level (intensity), in- dependently of the frequency distribution, is a function of the total traffic. In a high traffic situation such as our own, the noise generated by rumble strips would be a much smaller part of the total intensity. It is a very moot question if people in this neighborhood would find it objectionable, especially if the benefits included reduction in tire squealing and, hopefully, a lowering of vehicle speeds. 6. We agree with Mrs. January and Dr. Wunder that the de- sign of the Lexington Avenue strip could be improved. We append to this letter a design we would propose for our own neighborhood. 7. We are puzzled by the letter sent us on November 19 signed by Hr. Plastino. The letter and appended abstract relate to elevated speed bumps and not to rumble strips out into the paved surface of the roadway. We are puzzled because it seemed to us a concensus had been reached at the October meeting against speed bumps for good and sufficient reasons. 0 0 8. We are puzzled also by the opinions expressed against 4 -way stop signs, even though a number of these already exist in Iowa City where they are -for the most part- effective. We also note that two new multi -directional stop signs have just been Installed in downtown Iowa City. We find it hard to understand .why a control judged effective in some cases was so quickly ruled out in our own. 9. We note, in response to our October meeting, an In- creased police surveillance of our neighborhood. We are gratified by this, and hope it continues. We also hope the Council will seriously consider an Increased police budget to make increased surveillance possible through all of Iowa City. 10. We understand that no mechanical contrivance, be it a stop light, stop sign or rumble strips is a guaranteed cure for traffic problems. Nevertheless, we strongly advocate the in- stallation of 4 :aay stop signs and rumble strips of appropriate design at the intersection of Glendale Road and Seventh Avenue. We consider these advisable for the following reasons: 1- These expedients are probably less expensive than alternative devices. 2- They have intrinsic merit of their own in traffic control, judged by their use elsewhere. 3- Iif proven ineffective (by what means?) they can be more readily removed than other devices. 4- Their installation will advertise a measure of concern on the part of city officials for a prob- lem of serious magnitude. This concern is not currently advertised to motorists in the areas. This advertisement, by itself, may help abate the problem. We stand ready to continue discussions of this matter with you and members of the Council and Administration. Our purpose is to do what we can to make this a safer city in which to live and work.

Note: These strips need not be more than 2'-3' in length, as measured in the direction of travel. They should begin at the center line of the paving, and extend to within 2AY' from the curbing. The clear lane between the strip and the curb we con- sider essential to the safety of bicyclists. 5- New rumble strips, cut across both lanes of traffic, extend- ing to within 2' of the curbing on either side. These should be at least 101 long, measured in the direction of travel. Note: The strips identified by the number, 5, encompass the lanes of heaviest traffic, as read from the traffic surveyymaps produced by Mr. Plastino. The minimum length is predicated on the estimate that the average automobile has a wheel base about 10' long. 6- Since traffic headed east on Glendale Road makes the lightest contribution to the total load, this rumble strip probably does not need to be out across the full width of the road. We would have no objection were it to be extended. TO: FROM: RE: •City of Iowa City DATE: December 3, 1976 Neal Berlin, City Manager Don Schmeiser, Senior Planner Application submitted by Ty'n Cae, Inc. An application had been submitted to voluntarily annex a 39.84 acre tract of land located cast of Mormon Trek Boulevard and south of the City limits and also to rezone said property to an RIB Zone. The Planning and Zoning Commission at their previous meeting on November 18, 1976 recommended that the property be annexed but that it be zoned RIA in lieu of RIB. 'I7ie applicant had again requested that the Planning and Zoning Commission give further consideration at their meeting on December 2nd to rezone the property to an RIB Zone. The Commission, however, did not vote to reconsider their request. The applicant has indicated that if the property is not rezoned RIB that they would withdraw their application to voluntarily annex the property. I'm not sure what implication this has except that as far as controlling the growth of that area, I doubt whether the applicant would develop the property in the county particularly because of the Council's current policy not to extend sanitary sewer service into areas in the county. In recent conversation with Tony Kushnir, he had indicated that a public hearing could specify to rezone the property to an RIA Zone or RIB Zone giving the Council flexibility to approve either zone. The Council may wish to consider this alternative since it would take an extraordinary majority vote to rezone the property to an RIB Zone. The reasons the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the property be rezoned RIA in lieu of RIB are addressed in a Staff Report dated November 18, 1976 and the minutes of the Planning and Zoning Commission of the same (fate, both of which are attached hereto. If you have any further questions in regard to the above subject matter, please do not hesitate to contact me at any time - cc: Dennis Kraft DS:sc SUBJECT: and south of the City limits from an A-1 upon annexation; date filed: 10/18/76; hearing date: 11/18/76. • STAFF REPORT Planning and Zoning Commission November 18, 1976 Z-7617n/A-7602. Applical ion submitted by `I'y'n Circ, Inv. to rezone a 39.84 acre tract of land located east of Mormon Trek Boulevard zone (county zoning) to an RIB Zone 45 -day limitation: 11/22/76; public STAFF The subject request, 'tract B as ANALYSIS: shown on the attached plat, is located directly south and contiguous to the rezoning request previously discussed in Staff' Report Z-7617. The predominant physical feature of the request area is the rolling topography with slopes ranging from 5-13 percent. The sanitary sewer and water facilities existing in the area will support development at full capacity under either an R1A or an R113 zoning classification. The predominate type of land use in the arca and its immediate surroundings is agricultural crop. The request for annexation meets with the approval of the Planning Staff. The City should annex the prime development land contiguous to its boundaries in order to regulate development, avoiding the possible adverse effects resulting from haphazard or leapfrog, development. The request for annexation in this portion of the community is also in agreement with the conclusions and recommendations made in the most recent study o1' the area, i.e., the "South- west Area I-velopnient Study" prepared by the Planting Division in Play 1.109. The study r,zommcnded that the land in the southwest quadrant. of the community, which is not presently a part of Iowa City, be annexed for several reasons: 1) the area is contiguous to the City; 2) it is within the City's annexation territory; 51 the area hay; natural unity with the incorporated part of Iowa City because of Mormon 'Trek Boulevard extended to and through the area; and 4) the numerous municipal services, such as water, sewer, fire, police protection, park and recreation facilities would be readily available t, the residents of the area. The City would also want to annex the land in the southwest portion of the community in order to regulate the development that may occur if the proposed extension of Highway #518 is constructed through the area. As mentioned in the Southwest Area Development Study. a key purpose of annexation is to promote and regulate urban growth within the fringe areas of the City. The Staff' is not, however, in favor of rezoning the arca, iI' annexed in ., the City, to an hill classification. The City should reserve prime undevelo"'d land by zoning it to either a low density RIA Zone, or an "urban resery " classification until such time as a comprehensive plan of the area itas ren developed. This is especially important since the planning of new neig horhood facilities such as schools and parks are based upon the development exp ctations of the area. The location of the proposed extension of'Highway#518, i' located as proposed, will also have a tremendous impact upon the pattern of future development occurring in the area. STAFF STAFF The staff recommends that the RGCOMMGNDATION: request for annexation be approved and that the suhjccl area, if annexed into the CiIy, be zoned RIA in Iicu of an RID Zeno as requested. o �(1 1200 18( GRAPHIC SCAI-E : 1 660' rcH R JA c CITY LtKrrG lump n = U - REQUEST AREA NUMBER: Z`76/7q, -R16; RIA j% R LA
