Re: General public policies by Finance Director Joe Pugh
Dear Council Members,
Recently the Hoard of Supervisors became aware of the impact to
county government of the new Court Reform Act with respect to ad-
judication of city court cases.
The County is burdened with substantial cost increases in the op-
eration of the courts while returning 90% of the revenue from City
cases cases to the City funds.
Although the Court Reform Act excepts the county seat municipality
from the requirement of providing space for city ordinance adjudi-
cation, it was wrongfully assumed by the legislators that ample
court space wuuld be available in the Courthouse. In addition,
there is no provision in the law barring Iowa City from supplying
court space to conduct Iowa City court business.
I find it unfortunate that the Iowa City City Council and the
Board of Supervisors did not have a direct meeting of the minds
considering all the impacts in the original arrangements by Joe
Pugh with Johnson County court officials.
In another instance, as anIowaCity citizen I brought a stray
dog which has been in my custody to the Iowa City Animal Shelter.
I found myself inconvenienced by a policy set by Joseph Pugh which
can only be harrassment of the general public. Not only was I
being charged to leave the dog, but my check was not acceptable.
i'Ir. Pugh, in a telephone conversation, informed me he would not
even take a check from Mayor Ed Czarnecki because of past diffi-
culties with checks from the public. I found myself leaving the
animal shelter with a dog I had taken the time to bring in.
As a County Officer, the ramifications of Pugh's policies in
dealing with the general public on the disposal or care of dogs
are significant. Johnson County paid a total of $8586.550
in
claims to farmers losing livestock in 1973 because of loose dogs.
Had I not known better, I may have been tempted to drive into the

country to dump the dog as many city residents do. These dogs
either die Of starvation or they attack livestock to survive.
As a result,of the large livestock losses in 1973, it was nec-
essary to transfer $2029.00 of the County's General Fund as re-
quired by law to make full payment of the claims. The County
General Fund comes equally from City taxpayers as it does from
rural taxpayers. Another impact couldbethe worsening of al-
ready existing shortages Iowans are experiencing.
In short, as an Iowa City resident and as a public officer elec-
ted by all the people in the County, I would suggest that the Iowa
City City Council not allow the setting of general policies of
dealing with the general public and other governmental bodies
by the Council's hired help.
Allowing such a condition to exist can only erode working re-
lationships with the public and other agencies on the false as-
sumption that short-range financial benefits to the City coffers
is worth the long-range undesirable impacts and hidden costs to
the people -.:we serve on the sole judgment of a City staff person.
Sincerely,
Richard Bartel
Board of Supervisors

below.
COLLECTION
The undersigned are aware of the collection method proposed
by the City and find it to be acceptable.

delivery and will receive delivery of newsprint on the first four
Saturdays of each month between ,the hours of eight a.m, and five

Address:
COLLECTION
The Refuse Division of the Department of Public Works of the
City of Iowa City will undertake the collection of newsprint for
the purpose of recycling. Collection will occur from the curbside
only (regardless of the home's refuse collection point). Homeowners
will be expected to place newsprint only at the curbside bundled
and tied or in paper sacks on the scheduled Saturday morning of
collection. The City will be divided into four areas with a
collection being made from each area once during the first four
Saturdays of the month. No other refuse will be collected on
Saturdays.
Two packer trucks will be used for collection. The packer
trucks will be cleaned after Friday's refuse collection is complete.
DELIVERY
The collection crews will deliver the newsprint as it is
collected to a site designated by the successful bidder on the day
it is collected. This site is to be within the City of Iowa City's
city limits. The successful bidder must be prepared to receive all
newsprint collected on the collection day. The City anticipates
Saturday collection will require an eight hour work period. The
City estimates a maximum of fifteen (1S) tons of newsprint will
be collected per week once the program achieves a routine status.
Initial collection days may generate more than this amount due to
previous stockpiling-by'citizens,
The successful bidder should have adequate physical facilities
to permit rapid unloading of the packer trucks.
PAYMENT
The City will require a receipt for all newsprint
received noting the tonnage of newsprint received on the day
Of delivery. The City anticipates payment for the newsprint
it delivers to be based on the
tat mill 1delivered price which
the bidder receives. The bidder will receive the first ten
(10) dollars for every ton of newsprint processed. The City
will receive a percentage of the per ton price over the first
ten (TO) dollars.
The bidder should submit in his proposal
the percentage of the per ton price over the first ten (10)
dollars per ton he will remit to the City.
Payment to the City will be required within 30 days
from the time of bidder's delivery to the mill. The successful
bidder will maintain accurate records as to the tonnage
delivered and payments received for newsprint as may be
required by the City.
TERMINATION
This contract will be binding on both the City and the
successful bidder for the first six months of the program.
At six months time or at any time thereafters either party
may withdraw from this agreement providing written notice
is presented to the other party two (2) months in advance of
the date of withdrawal.

Dear Mr. Chubb:
Telephone 515/281-3711
The State_ Office for Planning and Programming has applied to the
U.S. Departments of Agriculture and Interior for the funding of a
pilot. program entitled the "Iowa Youth Conservation Corps". Because
of the City of Iowa City's previously expressed .interest in the pro-
gram, I am now extending to you an invitation to apply for the sponsor-
ship of a Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) project.
The Iowa Youth Conservation Corps is designed to offer youth be-
tween the ages of fifteen and eighteen with an opportunity to parti-
cipate in a combination work experience/environmental education pro-
gram for an eight week period during the 1974 Summer. The youth will
be employed for thirty hours per week on work relating to the con-
servation and development of our natural resources on public lands
and waters. In addition to the work, the YCC enrollees will receive
ten hours of related environmental education experience each week.
Enrollment in the program is open to both males and females from
all social, economic, ethnic and racial groups. The final selection
of YCC participants should reflect a broad representation of the
various groups within the community or communities from which the
youth are recruited.
The Iowa Youth Conservation Corps will be jointly funded by the
Federal Government, the State Government, and the community(ies)
served by the project. The State and Federal share will be equal
to 65% of the total project costs (15% - State, 50% - Federal). The
remaining 35% of the total project expense will have to be assumed
by the local YCC sponsor as its non-federal matching share.
Mr. Eugene Chubb

At this time our agency has earmarked $11,375
funds for an Iowa City based YCC pilot project. T
it will be necessary for the City of Iowa City to
federal matching funds. Your total project budget
for the summer YCC program.
in State and Federal
o attract these funds,
raise $6,125 in non -
would then be $17,500
At the most there will only be sufficient funds to develop seven
pilot YCC projects in Iowa communities. Therefore, it has become
necessary to establish an early deadline for making application to the
Office for Planning and Programming for YCC funds. The deadline has
been set at March 15, 1974. If our State agency is not in receipt of
an application from your community by that date, then other Iowa
communities will be sought to sponsor a YCC project and the grants
will be awarded on a competitive basis.
In order to enhance our planning of the 1974 Youth Conservation
Corps, I would like to have an Indication relative to your intent
to apply or not to apply for YCC funds. By February 15, 1974, 1
should be in receipt of a letter from an authorized representative
of your organization stating your intensions to either apply or not
apply for the sponsorship of a 1974 :YCC summer project. This letter
should also state how the sponsor intends to raise the 35% matching
share required by the program and who the sponsor w1shs to designate
as the 'contact person for my office to work with during the planning
stages of the YCC project.
For your information l am enclosing a copy of the regulations
governing the Iowa Youth Conservation Corps. I am also enclosing a
copy of the application to be used in applying to the State for YCC
funds if you so choose.. The directions for completing and submitting
the grant application are included in the program regulations.
As a final point, I want to state that our office has not yet
been officially notified by the Federal Government of the grant
award. However, no difficulty in this area is anticipated and we
should have the grant award notice by mid-February.
I do hope that you will seriously consider applying for a YCC
project. With effort -and _` imagination this can be one of the most
exciting youth programs ever established In Iowa.

Part A: Introduction
The Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) is a program of summer employment for
young men and women, aged 15 through 18, who work, earn, and learn together by
doing projects which further the development and conservation of the natural
resources of the United States. The Corps is open to youth of both sexes, and
youth of all social, economic, and racial classifications who are permanent
residents of the United States, its territories, possessions, or trust terri-
tories.
The Youth Conservation Corps Act of 1970 (P.L. 91-378) provided for a
three-year pilot program, to be funded at $3.5 million, to be carried out on
lands and waters under the jurisdiction of the Secretary of Agriculture or
the Secretary of the Interior. Public Law 92-597 amended the 1970 Act to
include a pilot program (beginning in 1974) under which grants shall be made
to States, to assist them in meeting the cost of Youth Conservation Corps
projects on non -Federal public lands and waters within the States.
In November of 1973, the U.S. Departments of Agriculture and Interior
advised the Office for Planning and Programming (OPP), a statutory division
of the Governor's Office, that a minimum of $66,000 in Federal funds would
be available to Iowa for a Summer, 1974 Youth Conservation Corps Program if
the State was interested and could raise, the required 50% matching share.
The program then was assigned to the State Youth Coordinator's Office within
OPP where it was decided sufficient interest in the program existed in various
Iowa communities to develop the program.
The Office for Planning and Programming applied for the federal funds in
December, 1973. It was determined by OPP that seven pilot Youth Conservation
Corps projects In Iowa communities could be developed with the State sharing
a portion of the Federal matching requirement with local sponsors.

(1) Recruiting must be conducted to insure that the youth in each
project constitute a representative cross -sample of the eligible

stone requirement that there be a social, economic, and racial
mix of enrollees. YCC programs should encourage participation
by needy and urban youth.
(2) Young women must receive equal encouragement in the application
process to that which young men receive. Although project work
sites are not required to be coeducational, the local YCC pro-
gram as a whole should include both sexes.

on conservation projects near their places of residence.
(4) The enrollee is an.employee of the grantee or sub -grantee. The

(8) In addition to the thirty hours of work experience each week,
the YCC enrollees should receive ten hours of related environ-
mental instruction each week for which they will not be com-
pensated. Each enrollee should then be scheduled for a com-
bination of work experience/environmental education for forty
hours per week. As much as possible the related instruction
should be integrated into their work experience.
(9) Staff employees of the sub -grantee may be paid for a maximum
of forty hours per week for nine weeks.
(10) The sub -grantee will have a financial management system which
• will provide the information -in Attachment I of these regu-
lations as required by the Office of Management and Budget.
10
(11) Sub -grantees will be reimbursed by the Office for Planning and
Programming for the State and Federal share of the YCC program's
cost. " At the time of the grant award to the sub -grantees by the
State, the sub -grantees will be advised of the proper forms and
procedures for their reimbursement.
(12) Because of the short duration of each project, budget revisions
should be unnecessary and will not be allowed except under
extreme circumstances.
(13) Sub -grantees shall permit the Secretaries to periodically inspect
the conduct of the program by the State and the sub -grantee.
(14) The State will supervise the YCC projects being administered by
sub -grantees. Sub -grantees and contractors will be required to

lations and the grant agreement with the State. Periodic in-
spection of the sub -grantee projects will be made by the State
under the direction of the Program Agent or his designee.
(15) Sub -grantees will not be allowed to contract with other agencies
or organizations for the operation of their YCC project without
the prior written approval of the State.
(16) If the grantee or sub -grantee fails to comply with the grant
award stipulations, standards, or conditions, the Secretaries
jointly may suspend the grant, or the State (as the grantee)
may suspend the _agreement with the sub -grantee. Subsequent
to or -during any period of suspension of the grant, the
Federal Government shall not be obligated to reimburse the
grantee or the subgrantee for any incurrence of obligations
other than direct salaries of enrollees and then only for a
period of time which the Secretaries shall determine to be
reasonable. In addition, the Secretaries jointly may, for
convenience, terminate the grant with the authorization of the
grantee. Termination shall be effected by a notice of termin-
ation. Upon receipt of a notice of termination, the grantee
or sub -grantee shall:
a) Discontinue further commitments of grant funds.
b) Cancel all sub -grants or contracts scheduled for payment
with grant funds.
c) Supply the Secretaries within two months after receipt of

claims relating to their project, and must maintain the proper
workman's compensation and liability insurance covering their
respective YCC operations.
(2) Sub -grantees may receive grants up to but not to exceed 65% of the
cost of funding a project from the State and Federal Government.
The remaining 35% of the total project costs will have to be
financed through sub -grantee, non-federal funds.
(3) In most cases, sub -grantee matching should consist of direct ex-
penditures (cash). However, under certain conditions, the State
will allow a sub -grantee matching contribution of an in-kind nature.
The exact type of and amounts of in-kind contributions allowed will
be negotiated between the State and the sub -grantee on an individual
basis. Under no circumstances will the State allow more than 15%
of the total project costs to be in the form of sub -grantee in-kind
contributions.
(4) Once the sub -grantee's application is submitted and approved, the
Office. for Planning and Programming will enter into a contractual

Mr. Eugene Chubb, Director

Iowa City, Iowa 52240
Dear Mr. Chubb:
The State Office for Planning and Programming has applied to the
U.S. Departments of Agriculture and Interior for the funding of a
Pilot program entitled the "Iowa Youth Conservation Corps". Because
of the City of Iowa City's previously expressed interest in the pro-
gram, I am now extending to you an invitation to apply for the sponsor-
ship of a Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) project.
The Iowa Youth Conservation Corps is designed to offer youth be-
tween the ages of fifteen and eighteen with an opportunity to parti-
cipate in a combination work experience/environmental education pro-
gram for an eight week period during the 1974 Summer. The youth will
be employed for thirty hours per week on work relating to the con-
servation and development of our natural resources on public lands
and waters. In addition to the work, the YCC enrollees will receive
ten hours of related environmental education experience each week.
Enrollment in the program is open to both males and females from
all social, economic, ethnic and racial groups. The final selection
OF YCC participants should reflect abroad representation of the
various groups within the community or communities fron which the
Youth are recruited.
The Iowa Youth Conservation Corps will be jointly funded by the
Federal Government, the State Government,_ and the community(ies)
served by the project. The State and Federal share will be equal
to 65% of the total project costs (15% - State, 50% - Federal). The
remaining 35% of the total project expense will have to be assumed
by the local YCC sponsor as its non-federal matching share.
At this time our agency has earmarked $11,375 in State and Federal
funds for an Iowa City based YCC pilot project. To attract these funds,
it will be necessary for the City of Iowa City to raise $6,125 in non-
federal matching funds. Your total project budget would then be $17,500
for the summer YCC program.
At the most there will only be sufficient funds to develop seven
Pilot YCC projects in Iowa communities. Therefore, it has become
necessary to establish an early deadline for making application to the
Office for Planning and Programming for YCC funds. The deadline has
been set at March 15, 1974. If our State agency isnot in receipt of
an application from your community by that date then other Iowa
communities will be sought to sponsor a YCC project and the grants
will be awarded on a competitive basis.
In order to enhance our planning of the 1974 Youth Conservation
Corps, I would like to have an indication relative to your intent
to apply or not to apply for YCC funds. By February 15, 1974, 1
should be in receipt of a letter from an authorized representative
of your organization stating your intensions to either apply or not
apply for the sponsorship of a 1974 YCC summer project. This letter
should also state how the sponsor intends to raise the 35% matching
share required by the program and who the sponsor wishs to designate
as the contact person for my office to work with during the planning
stages of the YCC project.
For your information 1 am enclosing a copy of the regulations
governing the Iowa Youth Conservation Corps. I am also enclosing a
copy of the application to be used in applying to the State for YCC
funds if you so choose. The directions for completing and submitting
the grant application are included in the program regulations.
As a final point, I want to state that our office has not yet
been officially notified by the Federal Government of the grant
award. However, no difficulty in this area is anticipated and we
should have the grant award notice by mid-February.
I do hope that you will seriously consider applying for a YCC
project. With effort and imagination this can be one of the most
exciting youth programs ever established in Iowa.
Please feel free to contact me if you have questions or comments
concerning any of the before discussed matters (515/281_3926)
Sincerely,
.

Part A: Introduction
The Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) is a program of summer employment for
young men and women, aged 15 through 18, who work, earn, and learn together by
doing projects which further the development and conservation of the natural
resources of the United States. The Corps is open to youth of both sexes, and
youth of all social, economic, and racial classifications who are permanent
residents of the United States, its territories, possessions, or trust terri-
tories.
The Youth Conservation Corps Act of 1970 (P.L. 91-378) provided for a
three-year pilot program, to be funded at $3.5 million, to be carried out on
lands and waters under the jurisdiction of the Secretary of Agriculture or
the Secretary of the Interior. Public Law 92 -597 -amended the 1970 Act to
include a pilot program (beginning in 1974) under which grants shall be made
to States, to assist them in meeting the cost of Youth Conservation Corps
projects on non -Federal public lands and waters within the States.
In November of 1973, the U.S. Departments of Agriculture and Interior
advised the Office for Planning and Programming (OPP), a statutory division
of the Governor's Office, that a minimum of $66,000 in Federal funds would
be available to Iowa for a Summer, 1974 Youth Conservation Corps Program if
the State was interested and could raise the required 500 matching share.
The program then was assigned to the State Youth Coordinator's Office within
OPP where it was decided sufficient interest in the program existed in various
Iowa communities to develop the program.
The Office for Planning and Programming applied for the federal funds in
December, 1973. It was determined by OPP that seven pilot Youth Conservation
Corps projects in Iowa communities could be developed with the State sharing
a portion of the Federal matching requirement with local sponsors.

Part C: Program Purpose and Objectives
The purpose of the Youth Conservation Corps Act is to further the develop-
ment and maintenance of the natural resources of tl)e United States, by the youth
upon whom will fall the ultimate responsibility for maintaining and managing
these resources for the American people. The Departments have stressed the
following three equally important objectives as reflected in the law:
(1) Accomplish needed conservation work on public lands.
(2) Provide gainful employment for 15 through 18 year-old males and
females from all social, economic, ethnic, and racial backgrounds.
(3) Develop an understanding and appreciation, in participating youth,
of the Nation's natural environment and heritage.
-3- •
The objectives will be accomplished in a manner that will provide the
Youth with an opportunity to acquire increased self -dignity and self-dicipline,
better work with and relate with peers and supervisors, and build lasting
cultural bridges between youth from various social, ethnic, racial and economic
backgrounds.
Part D: Legislation
State programs must meet all of the requirements of Section 4 of the Act.
Section 4 of the Act which applies to the grant program reads in part as follows:
"Sec. 4(a) The Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agri-
culture shall jointly establish a pilot grant program under which
grants shall be made to States to assist them in meeting the cost
of projects for the employment of young men and women to develop,
preserve, and maintain non -Federal public lands and waters within
the States. For purposes of this section, the term 'States' in-
cludes the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico,
the Virgin Islands, Guam, the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands,
and American Samoa."
"(b) (1) No grant may be made under this section unless an application
therefore has been submitted to, and approved by, the Secretary of the
Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture. Such application shall be
in such form, and submitted in such manner, as the Secretaries shall
jointly by regulation prescribe, and shall contain --
"(A) assurances satisfactory to the Secretaries that individuals em-
ployed under the project for which the application is submitted shall:
(i) have attained the age of fifteen but not attained the age of nine-
teen, (ii) be permanent residents of the United States or its terri-
tories, possessions, or the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands,
(iii) be employed without regard to the personnel laws, rules, and
regulations applicable to full-time employees of the applicant, (iv)
be employed for a period of not more than ninety days in any calendar
year, and (v) be employed without regard to their sex or social,
economic, or racial classification; and
"(B) such other information as the Secretaries may jointly by regula-
tion prescribe.
"(2) The Secretaries may approve applications which they determine (A)
meet the requirements of paragraph (1) and (B) are for projects which
will further the development, preservation, or maintenance of the non -
Federal public lands or waters within the jurisdiction of the appli-
cant."
(1) Recruiting must be conducted to insure that the youth in each
project constitute a representative cross -sample of the eligible
youth within the recruiting area. This is to meet the corner-
stone requirement that there be a social, economic, and racial
mix of enrollees. YCC programs should encourage participation
by needy and urban youth.
(2) Young women must receive equal encouragement in the application
process to that which young men receive. Although project work
sites are not required to be coeducational, the local YCC pro-
gram as a whole should include both sexes.
(3) To the maximum extent practicable, enrollees should be employed
on conservation projects near their places of residence.
(4) The enrollee is an employee of the grantee or sub -grantee. The
Enrollee Pay Plan should comply with Federal or State Minimum
Wage Laws whichever may be higher. To the maximum extent
practicable, State YCC enrollees should receive the same rate
of pay as Federal YCC enrollees which has been established at
the rate of $1.75 per hour.
(5) The sub -grantee must provide for an effective accident control,
health, and safety program. As a minimum, the sub -grantee
should follow U.S.. Department of Labor Bulletin 158, "State
Child Labor Standards".
(6) The sub -grantee must abide by the Federal child labor provisions
of the Fair Labor Standards Act, and the child labor laws of the
State of Iowa.
(7) During the project period the YCC enrollees may not be paid for
more than thirty hours of work per week for eight weeks.
(8) In addition to the thirty hours of work experience each week,
the YCC enrollees should receive ten hours of related environ-
mental instruction each week for which they will not be com-
pensated. Each enrollee should then be scheduled for a com-
bination of work experience/environmental education for forty
hours per week. As much as possible the related instruction
should be integrated into their work experience.
(9) Staff employees of the sub -grantee may be paid for a maximum
of forty hours per week for nine weeks.
(10) The sub -grantee will have a financial management system which
will provide the information in Attachment I of these regu-
lations as required by the Office of Management and Budget.
-5-
Sub-grantees will be reimbursed by the Office for Planning and
Programming for the State and Federal share of the YCC program's
cost. At the time of the grant award to the sub -grantees by the
State, the sub -grantees will be advised of the proper forms and
Procedures for their reimbursement.
(12) Because of the short duration of each project, budget revisions
should be unnecessary and will not be allowed except under
extreme circumstances.
(13) Sub -grantees shall permit the Secretaries to periodically inspect
the conduct of the program by the State and the sub -grantee.
(14) The State will supervise the YCC projects being administered by
sub -grantees. Sub -grantees and contractors will be required to
operate in accordance withthe procedures outlined in these regu-
lations and the grant agreement with the State. Periodic in-
spection of the sub -grantee projects will be made by the State
under the direction of the Program Agent or his designee.
(15) Sub -grantees will not be allowed to contract with other agencies
or organizations for the operation of their YCC project without
the prior written approval of the State.
(16) If the grantee or sub -grantee fails to comply with the grant
award stipulations, standards, or conditions, the Secretaries
jointly may suspend the grant, or the State (as the grantee)
may suspend the agreement with the sub -grantee. Subsequent
to or during any period of suspension of the grant, the
Federal Government shall not be obligated to reimburse ,.he
grantee or the sub -grantee for any incurrence of obligations
other than direct salaries of enrollees and then only for a
period of time which the Secretaries shall determine to be
reasonable. In addition, the Secretaries jointly may, for
convenience, terminate the grant with the authorization of the
grantee. Termination shall be effected by a notice of termin-
ation. Upon receipt of a notice of termination, the grantee
or sub -grantee shall:
a) Discontinue further commitments of grant funds.
b) Cancel all sub -grants or contracts scheduled for payment
with grant funds.
c) Supply the Secretaries within two months after receipt of
the notice of termination, a final financial statement,
along with a refund check for any unused portion of funds
advanced, or request for reimbursement for allowable
expenditures during the grant program.
(17) YCC sub -grantees will assume the responsibilities for any tort
claims relating to their project, and must maintain the proper
workman's compensation andliabilityinsurance covering their
respective YCC operations.
Part F: Request for Grant
(1) The grantee agency for the State of Iowa is the Office for Planning
and Programming. Organizations qualifying as a sub -grantees will be
required to apply to OPP for YCC funds.
(2) Sub -grantees may receive grants up to but not to exceed 65% of the
cost of funding a project from the State and Federal Government.
The remaining 35% of the total project costs will have to be
financed through sub -grantee, non-federal funds.
(3) In most cases, sub -grantee matching should consist of direct ex-
penditures (cash). However, under certain conditions, the State
will allow a sub -grantee matching contribution of an in-kind nature.
The exact type of and amounts of in-kind contributions allowed will
be negotiated between the State and the sub -grantee on an individual
basis. Under no circumstances will the State allow more than 15%
of the total project costs to be in the form of sub -grantee in-kind
contributions.
(4) Once the sub -grantee's application is submitted and approved, the
Office for Planning and Programming will enter into a contractual
agreement with the sub -grantee for the administration of a YCC
project. The contract will specify the terms and conditions by
which the State and Federal YCC funds are awarded.

Re: Right of Way at Intersection of Union Place and Bloomington Street
Mayor and Council Members:
At your meeting on February 5, 1974, you referred to me the
question of the law governing the right of way of vehicles using the inter-
section of Union Place and Bloomington Street in Iowa City.
In pertinent part the Iowa law governing right of ways at intersections
is set out in Section 321. 319 of the 1973 Code of Iowa which reads in part
as follows:
"When two vehicles enter an intersection from
different highways or public streets at approximately
the same time, the driver of the vehicle on the left
shall yield the right of way to the vehicle on the right. "
"Intersection" is defined in Section 321. 1(54) to include the joining
of two highways at approximately right angles or the area within which
vehicles traveling upon different highways joining at any other angle may
come in conflict.
Under the principles set forth in Section 321. 319 of the Code the
following right of way rules can be deduced for that intersection:
1. Vehicles traveling north on Union Place would have the right of
way over vehicles traveling east on Bloomington Street.
2. Vehicles traveling west on Bloomington Street would have the
right of way over vehicles traveling north ar_ Union Place.
I trust that this answers your questions concerning this matter. I
would be happy to discuss this with you further if you desire.
Respectfull ubmit ed,
W. Hayek

We have tried to:work out an Agreement which will .avoid any arguments

Re: Engineers Fee Schedule
Mayor and Council Members:
On January 15, 1974, you referred to me the question of consulting
engineers' fee schedules as set forth by the Iowa Engineering Society and
Consulting Engineers Council of Iowa. Specifically you asked for review
of this fee schedule in light of the antitrust laws.
As you may be aware, fee schedules as used by lawyers, engineers,
realtors and others who have used fee schedules in the past have come
under increasing fire. Essentially thecriticismof these fee schedules is
that they constitute price fixing in violation of antitrust laws. The Anti-
trust Division of the Department of Justice has recently instituted investi-
gation of bar association fee schedules and many state bar associations
have abandoned or are abandoning use of such fee schedules. I would
expect that this type of antitrust activity will also extend to other groups
including, quite possibly, engineers.
However, I do not think that at this point there is much that the
City of Iowa City can do about this matter short of filing a formal complaint
with the appropriate agencies. I anticipate that litigation in the area of fee
schedules and the antitrust laws will take place in the near future which
should serve to resolve this question.

Since to my knowledge this is the first such message delivered
in the history of Iowa City, the scope and nature are not con-
strained by past precedence. In this message I will attempt to
1) give my impressions of the structure and operation of city
government, Z) give my opinion on the forthcoming urban renewal
vote, 3) list pending items facing the City Council, both immediate
and long-range and conclude with; 4) some thoughts on inter-
governmental operations. This message should give all citizens of
Iowa City an overview of what is going on with their city govern-
ment and a checklist of priorities to measure performance in 1974.
Inherent in any promise to perform, is the ability to control the
operational structure of the organization. However, the Mayor,
under our existing and even under the proposed new charter form of
government, is a part-time position, as are the other four members
of the Council. This is undoubtedly the reason why this system is
referred to as a weak Mayor form of government. There are real
limitations in what the Mayor and the Council can do if for no
other reason than time -- time to meet together, to review material
or to discuss in depth the many issues facing the City. Our present
Council may be the most energetic in the history of Iowa City.
Certainly, during my first month in office, we have held more formal
and informal meetings than any Council has ever held in one month.
Still because of the enormity of the urban renewal issue, we have
had to delay action on some very important issues. The five Council
persons in essence are providing the citizens with a free public
service; although they do receive some compensation, it is minimal.
The Council has under its direct control three positions -- city
manager, city attorney and city clerk. The operations of the city
are directed by an appointed City Manager who in turn directs a
corps of highly trained professional and technical personnel, along
with an overall labor force of approximately 300 people.
■
_L_
The city attorney is the legal counsel to the Council. He works
directly for the Council and provides it with advice on the legality
of the issues before the city, as well as drafting ordinances and
representing the interests of the city in the courts of law. The
city attorney, however, is also a part-time position, although he
has under his control two full time assistant city attorneys.
Lastly, the office of the city clerk, which in Iowa City is somewhat
different than in other Iowa cities is under the direct supervision
of the Council. The primary importance of this position is to give
the citizens a clear and concise account of the decisions, debates
and deliverations of the Council.
In addition to the above three positions, the Council appoints members
of the various boards and commissions of the City. There are now
almost 100 individuals serving on a voluntary and unpaid capacity to
assist the City in its operations. Some are in specialized function-
ing areas: Housing Appeals,Electrical Board, etc.; some are semi-
autonomous: The Airport Commission and the Library Board; others
handle and report to the Council on policy or operational matters:
Planning and Zoning Commission, Human Relations Commission, etc.
According to the text books, the Council sets policy and the manager
carries out these policies. In actuality, the separation of powers
is far from clear-cut. Day-to-day operational decisions oftentimes
demand an interpretation of broad policy directions. Some policies
need to be established, others need to be revised. The city manager
has requested a series of meetings with the Council to revise, adjust
and establish procedures and policies. This will have top priority
as soon as the issue of urban renewal is settled.
One of my major objectives in my term of office is to insure the
most effective operation of boards and commissions. The following
points are necessary to accomplish this goal:
1. Secure the best qualified persons. Iowa City has a
wealth of qualified individuals with expertise in a
wide range of areas. We need to channel these re-
sources into the service of our municipal government.
It was overwhelming to receive almost a 100 nominees
to the City's initial call for volunteers to recent
openings. Presumably the City's recently enacted
policy of publication and publicity contributed to
this enormous response.
3. More contact with the City Council. Again, the Rules
Committee report suggested improvements in this area
but much more needs to be done to insure the fullest
inter -relationship between their activities and
Council's actions.
4. More contact between the committees and the public.
The Park and Recreation survey of recreational needs
is a step in the right direction. The Human Relations
Commission desire for a community study of discrimina-
tion is another. All boards and commissions need to
solicit input from interested citizens.
There are still additional improvements that have to be made. In
the next few weeks I will follow up the recommendations of the Rules
Committee by issuing guidelines regarding the "control" of items
and the relationship between City staff and Council's Boards and
Commissions.
This report will also focus on the question of staffing the boards
and commissions. The recent agreement between the city attorney
and the city manager regarding the distribution of the assistant
city attorney's time is the necessary prerequisite before determin-
ing additional staff demands to be met. During the past year, the
Council doubled the amount of staff assistance to our committees
from $5,000 to $10,000 annually. This should be allocated as
efficiently as possible.
In addition to meeting the problems of the existing boards and
commissions, I feel that there is a need to establish two additional
ones. The first a Transit Commission to receive t d
reac an advise
the Council on 'matters of transit, particularly the city bus
operation. The scope of the commission could also include biketrails,
future railroad lines, transportation assistance for the disabled
or elderly and the accommodation and coordination of all forms of
transportation - pedestrian, bicyclists, cars, buses, etc.
The second need is to reorganize the defunct Area Social Concerns
Commission. I would suggest that a new Social Service Commission
be established to coordinate the ever growing concerns the City
Council has in such areas as drugs, day care, etc. In both of
these areas we need to coordinate the activities of these commis-
sions with those of the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission.
A Social Service Committee already exists in JCRPC, a coordinating
transportation committee is being discussed. A city commission
would have direct input into the deliberations of JCRPC and in turn
could relay to the Council the discussions and activities of the
regional planning agency in these areas. They could also act as
advocates in recommendations presented to the Council.
The whole thrust of these comments is to make the City's Boards
and Commissions more representative, more active (if that is possible).
These are the primary and formal, organizations of the Council and
provide a structured method for citizen input. It should be pointed
out that an increased emphasis on the boards and commissions is not
intended to deemphasis the importance of the city staff. In fact,
the coordination of the City's boards and commissions with the staff
is essential to meet'the needs of the citizens. Hopefully, we can
duplicate the cooperative situation that exists between the City
staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission. The staff provides
expertize to the commission, although the commission makes its own
determination (not always in agreement with the staff). But regard-
less of individual differences, both staff and commission are in-
terested in providing the Council with their best opinions and re-
commendations. It is then the burden of the Council to make a
decision based on their best judgment. The staff should not look
upon outside opinion as a threat, but as a measure of securing and
mobilizing some of the excellent knowledge present in our community
primarily because of the existence of The University of Iowa. This
City has a wealth of talent most interested in providing input into
the decision making processes of the city. One of the biggest
challenges facing the City is to utilize this talent for the benefit
of all.
Turning to the issues facing the City, the major concern is of
course urban renewal. The City has participated in a lengthy
negotiation period with Old Capitol Developers. The results of these
sessions will be submitted to the voters the end of March.
The voters in Iowa City will for the first time have a voice in the
determination of the direction of urban renewal. The vote is a
decision on the single developer concept. Although the City has only
received one offer, admittedly a handicap, the City did not just
take a passive approach and immediately accept or reject the offer,
but rather attempted to make the best of the situation and negotiated
all major aspects of the proposal. On the whole, the City did quite
well. In fact, it may be argued that the City could not have done
any better if we had received more offers. This is based primarily
on "package offers" submitted to voters in other Iowa cities.
The position of the Council, in my opinion, in the forthcoming
neighborhood meetings will be to present the details of the agreement
as clearly as possible. There are some that want the Council to take
an extremely strong position and state flatly to the public that
this is the best possible urban renewal plan. However, to be real-
istic, each of the Council persons has a few reservations and
particular points that they would like to incorporate into the offer,
but which could not be accommodated. In this way they encounter
the same dilemma facing the entire city, should one accept the offer
even though it is in some way objectionable. The voters in Iowa City
have for some time taken a skeptical viewpoint whether anything would
be done with "the holes in the ground" in downtown Iowa City. The
circumstances today are totally unlike the 1971 vote on the parking
ramp.
My personal position in that election was to oppose strongly the
proposal. Since not only did theCitynot haveanydevelopmental
contract, it in fact did not receive any bid for the department
store site. The March vote this year in contrast is tied in to a
genuine offer by a developer. In addition, the City commitment
follows rather than precedes the commitment by the developer. Also
the tax allocation financing plan pledges future expansion to pay
off the City indebtedness, rather than the revenue from parking
structures.
There are alternatives to the single developer concept and they
should be clearly stated. And the voters can defeat the issue and
ask the Council to reconsider. However, they should be cognizant
that this vote not only will have an effect on the City's future
approachs, it will have a serious effect on any potential redeveloper.
With this background I feel the best position the Council should
take on this issue is to meet the public with as much objectivity as
possible explaining the details of the contract, the financial as-
pects involved and the alternatives if the issue is defeated.
Answering all questions not so much from the position of convincing
the public to vote yes, but impressing upon them the importance and
significance of the vote.
There are some in the community that would sacrifice the broad
interests of the citizens as a whole and attempt to build up and
focus upon only one or two issues in the package proposal. This
is their prerogative. But this approach may cloud the issue before
the voters and enmesh them in a struggle that prevents a clear and
open discussion of all the issues. I pledge that I will attempt to
counterbalance any campaign thrusts that obscure the fact that this
vote is a vote on a specific urban renewal proposal.
Given the overriding importance of the urban renewal issue, all others
seem relatively insignificant (at least in terms of dollars). Yet
the Council has many important issues before them. One is recycling.
The Council after some delay is about to embark on a paper recycling
project beginning April 1, 1974. This is a beginning but much more
needs to be done to implement additional recycling projects.
Another environmental issue that has recently been resurrected by
the City Council is the noise ordinance. The Council with the co-
operation of the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission's
Committee on Environmental Quality which has spearheaded the fight
for such an ordinance, will hold an informal public hearing on the
subject later this month.
Another major ordinance that may be before the Council in a few
months is one dealing with cable television. The City's CATV
Committee has devoted an extensive period of time studying the issue,
and perhaps has as much knowledge on this subject as any group in
the State of Iowa. The Council deserves to give this issue more
attention and to let the voters decide on the future course of action
sometime in 1974.
Two other major priority items of concern to me are the rezoning re-
quest of the southeast quadrant of Iowa City, particularly the
Summit Street area, This study primarily because of staff resigna-
tions in our Community Development Department has been stymied for
sometime. Action is scheduled for early in 1974. A decision on
this should be made early not only because of past delays, but to
give the residents of the area and also the developers an indication
of the intent of the City Council.
The other item is the Landlord -Tenant Ordinance, Like the above item,
this has been before the Council a long time (since July 1972). I
intend to continue to press for some action in this area, not neces-
sarily in the form of a comprehensive bill as before, but rather in
a number of specific ordinances designed to meet the most pressing
needs of the tenants (and landlords). The first step requires the
assistance of a lawyer interested in analyzing the growing amount of
literature in this area and offering suggested avenues of reform.
I am currently working out possible alternatives for securing legal
advice.
There are a host of other items facing the City, which could be
classified as longer range. Included in this checklist of priori-
ties are the following:
1. Ralston Creek flood prevention. The City has received a
top priority classification from the Soil Conservation Com-
mission on this item. I would like to point out that in
every election of the past two decades the creek has been
singled out by candidates as an item to be tackled and
remedied. It is significant that the present Council and
staff have probably done more to begin a systematic investi-
gation of flood control than any previous Council. Yet,
this is only a beginning.
2. Concurrent with the above, is the work of the Riverfront
Commission. Flood control and improvement of the river-
bank go hand in hand. Hopefully in the long-range improve-
ment of Iowa City, the citizens will have a greenspace
riverfront to enjoy.
3. Transportation. The energy crisis has had an impact on
all of us, yet the City is one entity that can do some-
thing about it. We can provide alternative transportation.
Both through an expanding bus system (and the City Council
has recently voted to expand the system) and through the
encouragement and accommodation of the bicycle.
our annual operating deficit of running a bus system is
approaching $200,000. The money presently is financed
from revenue sharing funds and the City needs to have a
more permanent source of funds to continue its operations.
This could mean either state assistance and a proposal is
before the state legislature or the enactment of some
enabling federal legislation. As for the City, its at-
tentions this forthcoming year need to turn towards im-
proving publicity on the system and reducing the very high
operating expenses, of the system. The bus system is of
major concern to the citizens and the Council must devote
more time either directly or indirectly, through the pro-
posed Transit Commission, to insure the best possible
transportation for our citizens.
4. Social Concerns. All city governments are faced with
growing demands for the government to become more in-
volved in meeting the social needs of the community.
Iowa City is no different. Again we do not have the
mechanisms to carry out a significant program in this
area. Our response has been twofold. One to direct
$75,000 annually to the Department of Social Services to
provide for outlays, particularly in the area of youth
programs. The other is to chide the County to utilize
its revenue sharing money (since it is based on the
population of the city as well as the county) to replace
City funds that previously went to Visiting Nurses and
to the alcoholism program. Not taking any objections
to the latter approach, this does not remove the City's
obligation to meet the expanding needs of the people in
the social arena. Much more can be done by the City.
A particular "Social Concern" and one that intimately
involves the City's Human Relations Commission is the
matter of equal employment opportunity. The concerns
are not just in the numbers of minority and women
employed by the City, but in the leadership role of the
Council. We should be able to adjust our work force, to
accommodate part-time employment, both on a "permanent"
basis to enable the City to utilize the talents of many
highly qualified people in Iowa City, but also to support
individuals throughout the summer in areas they can be of
great assistance to the City.
5. Housing. Particularly the elderly. Our present status is
to await for the release of federal funds. Maybe this is
all we can do. Yet I for one would like to see whether
alternatives are available. Surely a community like Iowa
City should be able to mobilize some of its forces to help
alleviate the problems faced by many of its citizens,
namely the desire to have a decent place to live.
6. Parks and Recreation. The past few years has been a period
of rapid expansion in the total number of acres of park
land added to the system. It seems that the major concerns
now are to maintain and equip these parks so that the
people can enjoy them. The other area immediately before
the commission is the suggestion that parkland be dedicated
in large_ subdivisions. This is an extremely controversial
issue, but one I personally support.
7. Planning and Zoning. The commission working with the
City staff has issued a number of studies covering such
areas as sideyards, parking suggestions, new subdivision
standards, etc. Other studies are under deliberation.
The Council must insure that Planning and Zoning has the
time and available staff to review these pending items.
In the past the Council has referred many items to the
Commission without regard for the commission's already
heavy workload. This has resulted in long delays before
receiving recommendations. More frequent and closer
contacts between the Council and the commission could
help to alleviate the situation.
8. The Library. This independent agency has because of a
number of unrelated circumstances been faced with serious
financial decisions which have resulted in a reduction
of services. The Council as a whole is concerned and I
am particularly concerned. Especially in this community
a full service library is a necessity. This matter will
require the full attention of the Council, yet the opera-
tion of this agency by law rests with its Board and
Director. The Council does allocate to it its operating
funds, but the distribution rests with the library.
Perhaps, a clearer understanding during budget time is the
answer. The problem appears deeper than that however.
These are the present issues facing the Council but there are and
will be others. No one can really predict what issues will face
the Council in the future.
I would like to return to some more basic problems of the operation
of the City, namely financing and efficiency. These two items are
the hear- of city administration. The City this past year has in-
augurated a Capital Improvement Plan, a five-year plan of antici-
pated expenditures. The first attempt was more or less a shopping
list of items totalling $32 million that we would like to fund some
time between now and 1977.
The voters should be aware not only of the street improvements in the
report, but the projected major capital improvements -- the central
-10-
•
facilities center, the recreation center addition, a new animal
shelter, a public safety facility and a library addition.
These issues must be seriously considered by the voters since their
approval to issue bonds will be necessary to begin these projects.
The CIP is intended to project what bond issues are planned in the
future, so that the fiscal integrity of the City can be maintained.
No one likes to spend money, but needs deferred only means increas-
ing costs to the citizens over the long run
Providing an additional dollar input to the City is the Revenue
Sharing monies allocated by the Federal Government. Iowa City re-
ceived almost a half million dollars annually from this source,
which is guaranteed for five years. I personally objected to some
of the expenditures allocated _last -year and I would pledge a more
thorough decision making process this year to insure the best
possible use of this money. Here again increased citizen input,
more input from boards and commissions will help the City meet the
desired priorities of the public.
The entire budget process involving over $16 million is becoming
more complicated with the addition of the CIP and revenue sharing
dollars. The public needs to be aware of the budgetary processes
and when they are to provide suggestions, The City staff will prepare
a detailed analysis of the procedures involved so that the public,
the department heads, and the City's boards and commissions will all
be able to interchange ideas on priorities. The 1973 budget hearings
were by far the most well attended in the history of Iowa City,
This is a positive sign. Yet, the criticism of the process by some
citizen's groups were justified and hopefully will be corrected this
year.
As for the matter of efficiency. Again, every candidate to the City
Council cites the desire for improvement in this area, but far too
often after the election the implementation wanes to arise again as
an issue the next election period.
The Council has already taken steps to insure a systematic approach
to items pending before the City, The City Manager prepares a monthly
checklist of items and the Council discusses them to determine
priorities and estimations of time and staff necessary to resolve
the issues. Likewise the Council has asked the City Attorney for a
similar checklist to keep the Council aware of legal items pending
before the City. In addition, the Council will receive quarterly
reports from the city attorney to keep tabs on his activities and
those of the assistant city attorneys. This type of reporting is
essential to a clear understanding and appreciation of the activities
of this office and to assist the Council in establishing priorities.
The present Council as a whole is extremely concerned that matters
brought before it must be handled expeditiously. The mechanical
steps listed above will help answer inquiries and concerns as rapidly
as possible.
In the broad area of personnel, the City over the past few years has
had an overall increase in personnel, with the largest occurring in
the administrative areas and in the police force. Some citizens have
criticized this increase in technical and professional staff. They
argue that efficiency is often associated with additional expertise,
without a clear indication of how the increased staff will contribute
to the solution of the problems facing the City. The responsibility
for personnel operations of the City rests with the city manager.
Yet as elected officials of the City and the ones that authorizes
additional personnel, the citizens rightfully turn to the Council to
ask - are these positions still needed?
I am deeply concerned about the staffing increases in the City, but
am more concerned with the unusually high turnover of top level
personnel. Perhaps this is just a normal situation in public service.
Yet it is a serious one. I am very concerned how the City can assure
itself of continuity in analyzing projects, if there is no continuity
of staff.
There are two other and final areas that I feel the City should do a
better job. One is in the area of legislation pending before the
state legislature and the national congress. The JCRPC through its
biweekly Saturday meetings with the local legislators has been in-
strumental in providing the leadership to get our viewpoints before
these people. The Council also has much more contact with its re-
presentatives in Washington, both through correspondence and in person.
Yet the Council needs to take positive stands on issues facing the
state and the nation. Especially in view of the new developments on
the national scene, regarding urban renewal and the better communi-
ties act in addition to the housing legislation, the Council needs
to support publicly legislation it feels is necessary to implement
needed programs affecting its citizens.
The other
area of concern is
the necessity for better communication
and deliberation with County,_ School and University officials. The
necessity of contacts resulting from the plans and financing of
. -

The composition.of Iowa City's government has undergone rapid changes
over the past five years There ,is a"significant shift in the back-
grounds of the individuals.serving on the Council. There is wider
interest on part of the citizens. More and new organizations are
participating in the discussions.,of the City,- The scope of Council
activities has widened. No longer is the City merely the agency
to repair the streets, zone property, establish parks, dispose of
the garbage and remove the snow. Now the City is operating a bus
system, controlling the use of signs in the City, recycling paper,
and considering communication regulations. The demands are ever
increasing. This first "State of, the City" message is an attempt
to tell the citizens where we stand, what to anticipate and to ask
their indulgence and consideration in our deliberations. Iowa City
is a -dynamic and vibrant community, The City Government should
provide the leadership to continue to enhance the well being of its
citizens. I pledge my energiestowards this goal,

Contrary to earlier indications, Congress is apparently determined to move

The full Senate Labor and Public Welfare Committee (Williams, D -NJ. , Chrmn. )

bill reported. Floor action before the full Senate is not yet scheduled but the
Committee intends to press for early consideration.
An identical bill, H. R. 12435, introduced by Congressman John Dent (D -Pa.) on
February 1is tentatively scheduled for mark-up early next week.
Our past efforts and the efforts of cities dealing directly with their Congressional
delegations have failed to impress upon the Congress the fiscal impact of applying
the overtime provisions, most especially to firemen. It is our considered judge-
ment that further efforts to change the legislation would be unproductive.

Sidewalk Ramps
During the regular Council meeting of January 29, 1974, a
letter was received by the Council asking if it would be
feasible to ramp sidewalks at curb intersections to facilitate
wheeled vehicles.
Please be advised that all sidewalks constructed in the
CBD under the R-14 Urban Renewal Project will be constructed
in this manner. Sidewalks that are designated as bicycle
trails will also be constructed in this manner if all traffic
stops before entering the leg being crossed. The concern
here, of course, is that a child will tend to go off of such
a ramp without stopping as he would have to do if a full
six-inch rolled curb were constructed.
If you have any questions concerning our sidewalk construction
procedure in this area please don't hesitate to contact me.

Gentlemen:
On August 10, 1973 the National Endow.nlent for the Arts awarded the
City of Iowa City $44, 000 in grant funds. The funds are to he used to
obtain two sculotures to be placed on two different sites in Iowa City.
The first of the sculptures will be located in the Chauncy Swan Pla::a..
It is our intention that this will be a major sculpture which will encom-
pass a fountain of some type. The second is to be placed in the urban
renewal area at a point yet to be determined.
The total project cost is estimated to be $88, 000. Of this, the grant
funds will provide $44, 000, Project Green will provide $1Z, 500 and
the City of Iowa City will provide $12, 500. The balance of19, 000 will
be raised within the community. Gene Claussen and Ernest Lehman
will act as co-chairman of the finance committee to raise these funds.
Guidelines are now being formulated -c-egarding the scope of the project
and also holo an artist may apply for a commission. At this time it is
our intent that a jury made up of Si- qualified people shall choose these
sculptors. Our intention is to make the competition as open as poseible
in order to give each sculptor an equal opportunity at a chance to
receive the commission,

STAFF REPORT
Planning & Zoning Commission
February 14, 1974
SUBJECT: 5-7401. Final Plat of Court
Hill -Scott Boulevard, Part
2, submitted by Plum Grove
Acres, Inc. (vic. north of
Court Street and east of lots along east side of Dartmouth
Street). Date filed: 1/24/74; 45 -day limitation: 3/10/74.
STAFF The Final Plat of Court Hill -
ANALYSIS: Scott Boulevard, Part 2,
consists of 10.2 acres of
northeast
ots
in
of the five lots along Court Street3inlCourtyHill-Scottand Boulevard,
Part I. Although the tract is zoned R1B, the smallest size lot
proposed exceeds the 6,000 square foot minimum lot size requirement
by 31490 square feet. The Plat conforms with the Preliminary Plat
of Court Hill -Scott Boulevard previously approved and all other
Subdivision Ordinance requirements except for the following
minor discrepancies:
1. According to the Subdivision Ordinance, "crosswalks may
be required in blocks over eight hundred (800) feet
long --_. If required, they shall be constructed by
the developer and dedicated to the City." Since the
block along Raven Street and between Court and
Washington Streets will ultimately be longer than
800 feet, a 10 -foot crosswalk, ,as illustrated on
said Preliminary Plat, was required between Lots
33 and 34. With no contemplated provision for a
cross street from Raven Street east between Court
and Washington Streets, a crosswalk is an important
feature in permitting internal circulation of
residents between blocks.
2. Although"corrected on _the original mylar print of
said Addition, copies submitted show a two degree
error in the boundary line at the termination of
Raven Street. Corrected copies showing a bearing
of N 86 55' 00" E should, therefore, be submitted.
STAFF
RECOMMENDATION:
It is the Staff's recommen-
dation that the Plat be
approved subject to the
addition and correction
of items 1 and 2.

5-7402. Resubdivision of a
portion of Macbride Addition,
Part 1, submitted by Macbride
Addition, Inc. (Vic. west of
Lot 40, Macbride Addition, Part 1).
limitation: 3/21/74.
The resubdivision of a
portion of Macbride Addition,
Part 1, is submitted as a
result of the exchange of land
in Macbride Addition, Part 1 between Macbride Addition, Inc. and
the City of Iowa City. The portion of land illustrated as Lots
40A and 40B was previously dedicated to the City as open space for
recreation use. The resubdivision conforms with all the require-
ments of the Subdivision Ordinance with exception of the following
minor discrepancy: the acreage of the site, as required, is not
indicated.
STAFF
RECOMMENDATION:
It is the Staff's recommen-
dation that the plat be approved
subject to the acreage being
shown. It is the Staff's
further recommendation that Macbride Road in Macbride Addition,
Part 1, be changed to Macbride Drive to conform with the City's
street classification system. Streets which are characteristically
in northerly and easterly directions are named "drives".

The Board of Trustees of the Library is requesting $5,655 so
that all library employees below the rank of Director can
be given a 5% across-the-board raise. Further, the Board
requests that all eligible employees of the library be given
family plan coverage under the Blue Cross/Blue Shield policy
of the City, the full premium to be paid by funds herein re-
quested from the City for the benefit of these employees.
This request is made in order to parallel the increase in
salaries, wages and fringe benefits given to City employees
effective January 1, 1974. Our request is that the City make
the salary,and fringe benefits available to employees of
the library retroactive to January 1, 1974.
The salary/fringe benefits requested should be given to library
employees in order to maintain a consistent approach to remu-
neration among the several departments of municipal operations;
and to enable the, library to remain competitive in terms of
the prevailing job market.

the revised budget requests filed
5% reserve for merit increases
computed as outlined by the
the Department of Finance dated
The proposal to give all City employees a 5% across-the-board
increase plus fringe benefits was first discussed after the
library budget and other departmental budgets had been certi-
tified to the County Auditor on October 15, 1973. The proposal.
was discussed during a meeting with City Department Heads on
November 13th and a straw vote for employee representatives was
taken November 19 1973. Notice of various options being con-
sidered for City employees was not given to the Board of Trustees
by the Library Director until November 28 immediately following
the City Manager's meeting. The Board was told that the City
Manager would make -a presentation to Council by mid-December.
In other words, the additional salary/fringe package was announced
more than a month after the library budget had been allocated
and certified to the County Auditor. Unless Council grants
relief, the Library Board is faced with two unpalatable choices:
attenuating an already weakened budget for books and other library
materials, or failing to give library_ employees salary/fringe
benefits paralleling those given to City employees effective
January 1., 1974.
The total. cost of. the 5% across-the-board increase and fringe
benefit package is $11,235.00: $10,830 in salary increases
and $405.00 in insurance. When the original budget request for
1974 was revised downward to a bud et total of $260,000 a
salary reserve/overtime figure of $8,232 was listed on the
expenditure detail. sheet. The 5% reserve figure totalled $7,478
and $754 was listed as overtime.
The overtime portion of the request was included to allow for
the hiring of temporary part time help, or for additional work
hours for existing part time help for such projects as are
listed below:
I. Installation of children's room shelving
2. Shifting of book collections following the above
3. Shifting of books, periodicals, and recordings following
the installation of additional adult shelving
4. Completion of the third and final phase of a "Library
User Survey". This survey will be completed during
three days in the last week of March, 1974.
5. Tabulation of data collected during the Library User
Surveys
6. Tabulations to complete the remaining 25% of a demo-
graphic study based on 1973 borrower registrations
7. Inventory of library collection
In requesting money for temporary part time help our intent
is to maintain an orderly, well organized library; not to
create new projects.
Library policy is to grant compensatory time, rather than to
pay overtime to regular full time employees.
In computing the 5% across-the-board salary increase, we con-
sulted with the Finance and the Personnel department to be
certain that the methodology followed was consistent with
that applied to other departments of the City.
The Library has paralleled the City's procedure on granting
merit increases by granting the merit increases to five employees
whose anniversary date was January 1, 1974. The cost of these
merit increases totalled $1,901 and would be deducted from
our reserve/overtime figure of $8,232, leaving a remaining
availability of $6,331 of which $5,580 should be considered
our reserve figure.
In addition to the merit increases already given, the Board
is requesting the additional funds so it can have funds
available to parallel the City's salary/fringe package using
the City Classification Levels and Pay Scales effective
January 1, 1974. The salary/fringe package was computed
as follows:
1. The 5% across-the-board wage figure was computed
from the salary the employee was receiving in December
of 1973.
2. Regular anniversary dates have been retained for all
employees -
a. Regular increments have been included using these
anniversary dates for those in the 1st - .3 steps
b. Where the probationary period would be completed
before July 1, 1974 it has been assumed that the
probationary period would be satisfactory. The
5% across-the-board increase has been computed
from January 1, 1974 and an additional 5% added at
the end of the probationary period.
3. The wage scale for pages was revised upward by 5% to
$2.10, $2.210 $2.31 per hour
The total 5% salary/wage increase is $10,830 more than the
salary/wage totals for those employed by the Library on January 1,
1974. (See column III of attached work sheet). However, because
a portion of our reserve figure has already been committed to
grant $1,901 in merit increases to 5 employees, $6,331 is the
total of our available reserve/overtime as of January 1, 1?74
(see below):
$10,830 Total across-the-board cost
5,580 Reserve available January 1, 1974
$ 5,250 Salary/wage request
Our overtime request previously noted was $754. We are revising
the request to $751. ($6,331 minus $7S1 = $5,580).
In summary, the total of the 5% across-the-board raise is $10,830.
The additional cost for health and life insurance is $405, a grand
total of $119235.
We realize that a city-wide freeze has been put on all merit
increases except those given January 1, 1974. While the grand
total needed to give the salary/frin a package to library employees
is $11,235, the remaining reserve of 5,580 can be deducted to
give a net additional cost of $5,655.
