Item No. 8 - CONSIDER ORDINANCE TO AMEND ZONING CODE TO ESTABLISH HEIGHT REGULA-
TIONS FOR THE R3 ZONE. Z-7413. (Second Reading)
Comment: Due to an oversite, height regulations for buildings in the R3 Zone
were never adopted although it was intended that the site and struc-
tural requirements would be the same as for the R2 Zone. The Planning
and Zoning Commission on July 25, 1974, recommended by a 5-0 vote
approval of a proposed ordinance establishing height restrictions
equivalent to the R2 Zone. Public hearing was held on August 27, 1974.

Comment:
® Action:
Inconsistencies have been pointed out in the Municipal Code regarding
the height and setback distances of fences at street intersections so
that an unobstructed view of an intersection exists. This ordinance
changes a section of the zoning code and makes it consistent with
requirements stated in other City ordinances. This ordinance should
be referred to the Planning and Zoning Commission.

risen with

The Riverfront CoRtnission met in Regular Session on August 29, 1974
with Chairperson Neuhauser presiding.
The minutes of the June 20, 1974 meeting were approved without change.
Bill Neppl reported on the status of the Iowa River Corridor Consultant.
Stanley & Associates of Muscatine, Iowa, was chosen to do the study. A
meeting between City officials and Stanley & Associates for the purpose
of negotiating a contract is planned during the week of September 2-6.
A sum of approximately $20,000 for this year has been budgeted for the
study.
Zhe scope of the study will include an area frau one mile south of Iowa
City to either one mile north of the City or all the way to the Coral-
ville Dam.
Chairperson Neuhauser suggested that the Omission meet with Stanley &
Associates, in special meeting if necessary, after the contract for the
study is approved.
Barbara Niccnish reported on the CmMission's July canoe trip. Two
major problems were detenni.ned. A bike trail would have to go over Rapid
Creek and under Interstate 80. Another problem was foreseen in regard
to whether or not the City would have any right of way on privately owned
riverfront property.
A trip was set up to view the southern portion of the river from the
Burlington Street Dam down past the Showers property. The trip was set
for Saturday, September 7 at 1 p.m. with the meeting place yet to be
determined.
Chairperson Neuhauser reported that the Showers property negotiations
are continuing.
Don Schn-eiser reported that an application was made to annex and zone 500
feet of land south of Iowa City. He suggested that the Comnission might
like to look at the sight and it was decided that that would be done in
ombi.nation with the scheduled canoe trip. The findings of the Com-
mission will be presented at the next meeting. A location map and a staff
report from the Planning.and Zoning Commission will also be presented at that
time.
The meeting adjourned at 4:45 p.m.

Guest, Alicia Claypool commented that she had been to the
last few meetings and she wanted to commend the Commission for
• the efforts they have made concerning the elderly housing. She

has been impressed by how the Commission has responded to the
concerns of the elderly, who will be living in the new housing.
3. Coordinator's Report.
Seydel reported he had five new applications. Two of these
are from previous tenants.
Seydel reported he has six open leases, and two more which
will be open at the end of this month. These are leases which
can be assigned. His efforts to obtain new units are at a
standstill. Nothing is available now.
Seydel expects this to
continue for 30-60 days. He is now negotiating for two units
and will continue to look for more. Applicants on the waiting
list have been advised to assist in looking for units.
Retish asked how units are obtained. Seydel explained that
a daily check is made of newspaper ads, he has contacts with the
Board of Realtors and various landlords. Some of the managers
of the larger complexes used to call but they are all full right
now. Seydel has not advertised in the past and feels it would be
a waste of time right now.
Retish suggested a KXIC Public News Bulletin to help find
units. Seydel will check on this.
Seydel reported he has not heard from HUD on retaining the
reserve money from the last -fiscal year.

Seydel commented that there would be nothing to prohibit

against the City Council not the Housing Authority. They are
considered separate bodies although they are the same people.
Seydel stated that this is the City Attorney's understanding
the present time.

Branson asked Retish if he wanted to suggest an alternative.
Retish answered that he wanted a recommendation so the housing
wouldn't be held up.
Branson asked the Commission members to think about alternative
ideas to be discussed at future meetings.
■
® -Branson informed the Co that the Compromise Housing
Bill passed the House. The final bill makes a revised Sections
23 Leasing Program the principal federal housing subsidy vehicle
while relegating conventional public housing to an insignificant
role; replaces most categorical community development programs
with an $8.6 billion system of block grants and extends the
Section 235 and 236 programs.
Sheets reported on the State Chapter of NAHRO Meeting held
in Des Moines on August 8 and 9. Sheets stated that it was
mostly review of things the Commission members had learned while
the developers packet was being put together. She attended one
meeting where Bruce Morgan, Commission on the Aging, spoke. This
meeting concerned the fact that the Federal and State Governments
are now looking for local support of projects and trying to find
local sources.
Developers Packet.
Sheets stated that there is an Interim Study Committee, which
is a group of legislators, who should be involved in reviewing the
housing proposals. She reported that Marsha Helem would be the
person to contact concerning this. Seydel will try and contact her.
A citizen has asked Sheets to ask the Commission to find out
from the City Council if they were willing to sell any of their
Urban Renewal land to a private developer.
Seydel said that if the land was part of the 11k acres it
could not be sold, but he doesn't know about the other land.
Sheets motioned that the Commission ask the City Council if
v they would be willing to sell City owned land to another developer
an to a ne what s'a_v_ailab.le. Retish seconded the motion.
Motion passec'-unanimously.
Seydel reported that the Developers Packet was submitted on
schedule on August 8. Verbal approval was received. The Notice
to Developers/Builders was approved as is and will appear in the
Press Citizen on August 23 and 26.
Minor modifications of the Developers Packet were requested.
Changes incorporated are as follows:
a. Paragraph 3q has been changed to satisfy HUD requirement
(FHA mortgage insurance).
b. Paragraph 3w, added (T.V. antenna).
c. Paragraph 3x, added makes air conditioning mandatory).
d. Air conditioning capability removed from list of items
to be viewed as positive factors.
Seydel explained that the completed proposal would contain
things such as an artist's concept of the outside of the building,
a floor plan, a statement as to the type of heating, and an
artist's concept of the furnishability of one of the units in the
building.
Branson suggested involving the Design Review Committee,
which is a City appointed group appointed to advise the Council,
in choosing proposals.
Alicia Claypool suggested consulting design expert, James
Harris.
Retish recommended that the Commission consult the Municipal
Transit Office. He understands they will be changing their
bus routes and this would be an -important consideration in site
selection.
Seydel reported that the public solicitation to interested
developers/builders will be in todays mail. An informal meeting
40 covering the Developers Packet will be held on August 28, at
1:30 P.M. in the Council Chambers. The Developers Packet must be
submitted prior to 2:00 P.M., September 25, 1974. Seydel thinks
that after the proposals are submitted, within a month one should
be chosen.
Alicia Claypool asked if there would be more meetings with
the elderly.
Branson answered that she hoped they could have several
meetings of smaller groups rather than one large meeting.
5. New Business.
The report of the Occupancy Audit has been received. Seydel
must reply within 30 days and is presently working on this. Seydel
feels that the auditors are public housing oriented and he disagrees
with some of their findings. Some of the things that will need
to be changed are the applications and the leases. These are things
that the Commission will be involved in.

Tothe`.Mayor and .the Council:;,,;
These notes.on procedures are a follow-up to my
discussion with the Mayor this:afternoon on how the Commission
can be of_mmre effective help to Council.
THE P &'R COMMISSION'S AREA OF SURVEILLANCE should
be anything related to parks and recreation that comes up from
any source.; we can'do legwork for the Council. With Staff and
Commission input on '"each item, the Council can count on having
at hand as much information-as,possible when decisions must be
made. I don't think investigations should come separately to Council
from either Staff or Commission in our area. There should be input
combined from :both.
ie. The Mayor-asked`the'Staff to report on the 4 C's program.
The proper routing, asI see it, would have been to have the program
and Staff's study of it referred to the CommiSsion. With our reaction,
the study would have; -come before Council when discussion of it and
our recommendation appeared in our _minutes. As it happened, I held
the report for Commission consideration and it will come through us,
but this is too haphazard a proceaBire to rely on.
These steps in a'REFERRAL PROCEDURE which our Rules
Comm, recommended in,January have never received comment.
1. -'Any issuethat needs investigatimn within the P and
R area of interest,, -whether it originates with the public, Staff
or Council, should be referred to Commission for report to Council.
Z..In making.the referral, Council should specify what
Staff help is to be.given.
3. If we start an "investigation" on our own, we
technically need to put a request for, Staff help through the
Council to the `City -Manager and Staff.
4. °With -the Staff ,help, and citizen input, which we
must usually solicitor else we dont hear, Commission formulates
a recommendation and sends��o'.Council
5. The recommendation is acknowledged when it appears
in our minutes.and.s'accepted.or not.
********A procedure is needed for making time available for
explanation'or discussion at this,''int, if it's needed. Could
it be scheduled at the beginning of_the following informal Council
session with a Commi"ssion,person and Staff person asked to come?????
5 -,alternative,
a) Before voting on'our recommendation, Council
may need to refer it to Staff.
b)'Instead+of. having Staff report back to Council
directly, Council directs ,Staff to bring the matter through the
Commission again for.1ts further input and education. If
Commission`d Staff
disagree on the matter ff and

CIP BUDGET PAST HISTORY:
r�
The other-area...t :f
of greatest grief is bu.dget and here we. are unique
from any otherCommssion'. "'The' 'Commission is supposed.to do budget
review; .but,. the' P and R ;Staff has'"'never felt authorized to give us
as much information=as we_felt we needed. As it's happened this
year, the Commissiari gave `its first worksheet on the CIP to the
Council_on.April lot hoping to be informed by Council on how to
next proceed. `This did.not happen -so the procedure involving
ranking was worked out with Ray Wells and reported to Council in
our April_10 minutes. Since Council didn't disagree, this is what
we did. But=then Council -,di scarded this plan and lumped "smaller
park:developments" (incorrectly named "neighborhood parks") together
with the yearly $80;000. If .the `City is going to use a 5 year plan,
P and R projects should not be exempted from it, as far as the
Commission -is` concerned.
PRESENT CIP PLAN:
As it stands for.'now, however,:the Commission will rank the M&
projects within the.480,000 figure> and assumes that if any money
which 2ias beenalloted to the:Pand R section of the budget becomes
available 'in any of.'the next 5. years.. it will be added to the
$80,000 amount for us to re -rank for,Council with Staff help.
FUTURE CIP BUDGET.PLANNING RULES:
The Commission:'.feels that it'.s essential for a procedure to be
set up for Staff properly informing -us of necessary budget
information.` In .the same way that the budget making schedule is
written up for the department heads,.our procedure should be
ordered by Council:and scheduled_on per. Based on last (this) year
as a test case:",these.steps seem necessary,
the Spring, Commission should attempt to sort out
what projects need attention;`and,rank which should come first. To do
this, Commissionwi'lh automatically"need'an up -dating on what projects
are finished:;and7what'money is already committed. We will also need
background informati`onsuch as:use of a facility or whatever. This
process shouldbegiriofficially each year with the Council requesting
that the City,Manage'r authorize the release of such information to
the Commission ifrom:';atie Parks and Re'c.Staff.
2. Xn -appearafice-jL�beforW�:the Commission of the City
Manager at thi"s,point,'would be helpful for us to fully understand
what Staff:feels is.feasible.' Hopefully, Staff's priorities and
Commissionts would :be pretty. much -in -line. If not, we would at
least know each other's thnking.on each.
3. :Commission•s rankingir'would be presented to Council,
or to a Council.;sub=committee; with each item and choice explained
in full. Commi_ssion's'reasoning should be aired at this point.
4,A,When 'Council has arrived at top dollar for P and R,
(and Commission;does not understand how this is set) and if cuts are
needed, this should"be referred back for Commission to suggest a
re -ranking,• With•the_ Commission's"and Staff's reasons for each new
choice, the- Council- can 'set the _final' priorities with as much
understanding-ofethe'situation as .1.
OPERATIM.BUDGET INPUT steps.rremain a mystery, to date.
With Staff help, they would presuambly be similar.

5. Executive Session. It is understood and agreed by the parties that the
negotiating process is a difficult process and subject to all manner of complica-
tions which may arise during the heat of negotiating sessions and that to hold the
negotiating sessions in public or to allow access to the sessions by the public or
the news media can and would inhibit, prolong and damage the negotiating process.
It- is further understood that any agreements which may be reached by the negotiating
teams are only recommendations which must be approved by the City Council of Iowa City
on behalf of the City and the Union members on behalf of the Union and that at said
time there will be a full public disclosure of any proposed contract or agreement,
terms, ordinances, rules or resolutions and that at such time the public and the Union
members will have full opportunity to consider the results of the work of the negotia-
ting teams.
It is therefore agreed that all negotiating sessions shall be -in executive session
and no one except the negotiating teams and one person for each team to take notes
shall be allowed to be in the sessions. The parties, however, may jointly agree to
allow additional persons to attend any session to act as a mediator if the parties
desire. It being understood that said mediation is not binding on either party or
the teams. Further, the parties may jointly agree to have an individual appear during
a session for the sole purpose of providing the negotiating teams with documentation
or reports on matters which the negotiating teams consider material or relevant to the
negotiations.
6. News Releases. The negotiating teams upon joint agreement only may from
time to time make joint news releases to the news media on the progress of the negotia-
tions or the subject matter of the negotiations. The releases shall be made jointly
by the two chief speakers and shall be prepared in advance in writing and shall be
signed by the chief speakers.
When negotiations have been concluded and a final report or recommendations or
proposals have been made by the negotiating teams and a copy of said report or recommen-
dations or proposals have been delivered to the City Council members, and the members
of the Union, a copy of said report or recommendations or proposals shall be made
available to members of the news media and shall be filed at the office of the City
Clerk of Iowa City, Iowa, and at such time shall be available to members of the
public as a public record.
No other news releases shall be permitted except that either party may unilater-
ally make a news release that the other party's negotiating team has violated the
term; of this negotiating agreement. Said release shall specifically scat Faith the
vi,A atlon of this Agreement and the person or persons violating it.
-4 -
It is understood that the intent of the parties as to news releases is to
prevent either party from making inflamatory or other type remarks to the news media
which can or could be misconstrued by the media, the public or the other negotiating
team or be taken out of context and therefore inhibit the progress of the negotia-
ting teams or the parties. Both parties agreeing that all negotiations an(] discussions
must be done in the executive sessions in order that the interest of the City, the
Union, the employees and the public will be best protected and ser:, -ed -
7. Reports to Parties. It is understood by and between the prn t.i.cs I -hat from
time to time it may be necessary for the negotiating teams Lo make. reports Lo ti,e
City Manager of the City and the elected officers of the Union, and that further, it
may be necessary for the City Manager to make a report to the City Council and further
that it may be necessary for the teams to make inquiry of the City ;Manager or Union
members on certain matters being negotiated.
It is agreed that such reports and inquiries may be made but on the following
conditions only:
1. That said reports and inquiries are made in executive session.
2. That said report or inquiry, or the subject matter thereof, may not be
communicated by the City Council, City Manager or of=icers of the Union, members of
the Union, or negotiating team member to anyone else without the consent of both the
parties and such consent shall be in advance and in writing.
3. That a negotiating team may make said report or inquiry on itown motion
or that of the manager or Union officers but may not be required to make a report
or inquiry by the other side.
If a City Council member, the City Manager or an elected Union nffi.cial or nego-
tiatinq team member shall violate the provisions of this paragraph either party or the
chief speaker of a team may issue a news release reprimanding the person who violated
this paragraph and set forth the violation and also may state in said news release that
the offender received prior to the commencement of negotiations a copy of this Agree -
Ment and was fully informed that the release of information obtained at such executive
sessions was a violation of this Agreement and could cause a disruption of negotiations.
8. Solicitations by Parties. It is agreed by the parties that during the nego-
tiatinq process neither party, its council members, City Manager, Union off.icc,rs,
negoti.-Ming teams, stewards, supervisory employees, agents or representatives or
Union r.,embers shall- seek out or solicit or attempt to persuade or discuss .i.nformation
or the negotiations with any person who is on the other side of the collective bargaining
procrs�. It being agreed by the parties that to better promote effl-lctivo negotiations
the negotiations need be carried on exclusively by the negotiating teams and that
said process should not be circumvented in any way. And the parties further agree
that if a violation of this paragraph is committed that either party may issue a
new_: release in the manner and form as set forth in paragraph 7 for a violation of
that prdgraph.
9. Sessions. Collective bargaining sessions shall be set at such time and
place as shall be agreed, between the teams. If for some reason a meeting place or
time must be changed the chief speaker of the team wishing the change shall contact
the chief speaker of the other team, give the reason for the change, and propose a
new time or place. No meeting place or time shall be changed unless a new time or
place is specified at the time the change is agreed upon.
There shall be scheduled a minimum of two sessions each week unless the parties
agree otherwise. All sessions shall be for no longer than three hours unless the
teams jointly agree to extend the length of a particular session. Recesses shall be
allowed during the sessions to suit the convenience of the team members. A team shall
be entitled to recess during a session to confer privately with the members of the team
to discuss items being negotiated. Once a session has been commenced no substitution
or chanties in a negotiating team may be made until that session is completed. The no
substitution rule during a session may be waived by the teams jointly for a particular
session, but any such waiver shall apply only to the particular session waived and
shalL not operate to waive the rule on future sessions. In the event of illness or
incapacitation or emergency which requires the absence of a team member, the team
lo=ving maid member may substitute a new team member or recess, the mceti.ng- Such
substitution must be agreed to by the other team or the session must ham: rec:assed_
10. Proposals. In an effort to expedite the bargaining process and promote
the orderly development of the process the parties agree to prepare written proposals
as to the items they wish to negotiate on. Such proposals shall be in writing and
delivered and presented to the other side at the first meeting. Additional proposals
involving different subject matter than the original proposals may be submitted for
an additional two week period. Thereafter neither party may present additional pro-
posals involving new subject matter after the expiration of the two week period,
however, either party may present counter -proposals involving the same subject matter
as was contained in the original proposals presented by either party and said counter-
proPosal.s may be presented at any time, subject to the other terms of this agreement.
Adclitional proposals not in the original proposals may be added or may be brought
uu aft'_' c the two wee' period has expired only if the teams jointed agree, or the team
(not caused by their negligence), or a material misrepresentation by the other
team (whether intentional or unintentional), or new information has been determined
which was not available or could not have been obtained at the time of the original
period for proposals.
It is the intent of the proposals submission to assist the parties in the
negotiating process by enabling each party to know generally of the ot.har parties
interests so that the parties and the negotiating teams may determine the areas of
agreement and disagreement and be prepared to provide information on areas of dis-
agreement which may help resolve any disagreements.
11. Agendas. Each negotiating session shall have an agenda of items to be
discussed. The agenda for each meeting shall be set at the previous meeting and
agreed to by the teams. The teams may set agendas for several meetings in advance
if the teams so agree. Once an agenda has been agreed upon it may be changed only
by joint agreement of the teams. No item not on an agenda may be discussed at any
session unless both teams jointly agree to discuss said item. No party can refuse
to put on some agenda (although reserving right to agree on which agenda) an item that
was or the original proposal submitted pursuant to paragraph 10 of this Agreement and
the parties hereby agree that all items submitted in said proposals shall be on at
least one agenda. The placing of an item on an agenda does riot obligat-� either party
to agree on any aspect of said item in any way and each party can re.se,.ve to itself
the decision that any item may be completely rejected even though proposed by the
other side.
At the second meeting of the negotiating teams the agenda shall he as follows:
1. Discussion of areas of general agreement in proposals.
2. Discussion of areas of disagreement in proposals.
3. Discussion of areas where one party or the other sees area as nor: -negotiable.
4. Arrangement of schedule of topics for future agendas.
5. Setting the agenda for the next meeting or meetings.
During any session the agenda order need not be followed in the progr.cssion
lasted.
TF an item was on a previous agenda and agreement wa_4 ruo,:hed on tear :it:em at
that time, it may not be- brought up again unless either the te:lms jointly agree it
may be put on an agenda or the team wishing it put on the agenda can show that at the
time! of the agreement there was a mistake of fact (not caused by their nagLi.g-�nce)
or a material misrepresentation by the other team (whether Jnteritinnal or uni_ntenti.onal)
obtained at the time the item was first on the agenda.
An item which was on a previous agenda but was deferred or no agreement was
reached may be returned to any agenda as if it were an original item. If the
discussion of an item is not completed at a given meeting that item will automatically
be placed on the agenda for the next meeting unless the parties jointly ag:_ee other-
wise. If the parties cannot agree on an item or reach di -;agreement on an .item at
a meeting said item must be placed on the agenda for a subsequent meetiteg unless the
parties jointly agree otherwise.
12. Writing. Agreement on any item will be reduced to writing and shall be
approved by the team at the same session of which agreement is reached or at the
next session. It may be typed or handwritten. When the agreement draft is approved,
both chief speakers shall initial or sign same. A copy will be provided each. They
shall be kept confidential, unless both teams agree to a news release, until incor-
porated in the final proposal.
13. Non -Waiver. That the parties understand that the entering into this Agree-
ment does not operate as a waiver of any of the rights, duties, or obligations of
either of the parties in respect to collective bargaining including, but not limited
to, scope of bargaining, scope of representation, subjects involved in collective
bargaining, and terms and conditions of any collective bargaining agrer:ment, it being
understood that this Agreement sets only the manner and method oC -ting negotia-
tions between the parties.
14. Impasse Procedure. Either party to this Agreement, upon an impasse as defined
herein, may require mediation. The parties hereto agree that Robert B,:-rgstrom of
the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, whose office is at 510 American
Building, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, 52401, shall be appointed as mediator. In the event
that the said Robert Bergstrom is unable to serve as mediator for any reason, the
parties agree that another member of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service
may be substituted in his place.
Mediaton may be required by either party when there is a dispute as to a violation
of the terms of this Agreement or there is an impasse in the negotiations over the
terms of the collective bargaining agreement.

During the months of July and August, the Iowa State Department of Health conducted
a swimming pool survey program. The purpose of this program was to observe and
record the deficiencies and problems concerning the maintenance of swimming pools
and to make recommendations pertaining to the correction and improvement of these
conditions.
Listed below are the deficiencies of a mechanical or structural nature which were
observed at your pool:
1. Filter room not adequately drained.
2. Provide an approved gas mask which is
equipment room.
3. Remove footbaths from service.
to be located directly outside of chlorine
4. Provide forced ventilation for chlorine equipment room.
It will be necessary that the above items be corrected prior to operating the
swimming pool for the 1975 season. If construction or reconstruction is required
to correct these items, please forward plans and specifications to this Department
for approval prior to actual construction.
This program will be continued on an annual basis.

Honorable Edgar R. Czarnecki, Mayor

Dear Mayor Czarnecki
This letter is intended to bring you up to date on the status of the
Iowa City Sculpture Projects. The project has been carried out
exactly in accordance with the attached guidelines. The jury met
in Iowa City on August 9th and decided the winner and alternate
of each project. Kenneth Snelson was chosen as the sculptor for
the Civic Center site and Richard Field was chosen as the sculptor
for the Urban Renewal site. A copy of the press release is enclosed
which spells out all of the details of the competition. As per the
attached guidelines, the completed sculptures are to be delivered
and installed in Iowa City no later than September 2, 1975. The
formal unveiling of these sculptures is scheduled for October 1, 1975.
We are in receipt of a letter from the National Endowment for the
Arts verifying their participation in this selection. It also points
out how pleased they have been with Iowa City's application and
competition and with the quality of the proposals which were submitted.
The jury was extremely impressed with the Welton Becket master plan
for the Iowa City downtown area. The National Endowment for the Arts
and the jury suggested, however, that the City consider seriously the
removal of the 19 car parking facility located on the southwest corner of
Washington and Gilbert Streets. It is felt that this 19 car facility will
prevent• visual integration of the Snelson sculpture with the Civic Center
Building as well as with any future buildings in the Civic --Government
complex. They also recommended that consideration be given by the

City to rearrangement of the numerous wires, utility poles and
signs which will not allow for proper presentation of the sculpture.
The final placement of the Snelson piece at the Civic Center site
and the Field piece at the Urban Renewal site should be planned
by the artists, the Welton Becket architectural firm, the City
Planning Department and if possible, the Design Review Committee.
I would very much like to discuss with you and the other members
of the Council a plan for utilizing the quarter block area bounded by
the old Kelley Cleaners building and the present Project GREEN
green area. The proper utilization of this area could set the high
standards which we envision in our urban renewal area. As we
become more and more urban, green areas and properly presented
I
in public places must be planned years in advance. Governmental
officials on every level are now stressing the need for quality in art,
architecture and urban planning for their constituents. Iowa City is
now in a unique position to lead by example. This opportunity must
not be missed. I look forward to discussing this matter further with
you at your convenience.
Very truly yours,
W. Richar

FROM: Iowa City City Council
RE: Referral of Summerwill Letter.
At their regular meeting on September 10, 1974, the Iowa City
Council officially received a Letter from Richard SummerwiLl
regarding the Iowa City Sculpture Projects. The Mayor noted
that alternate sites have been discussed. The motion was
adopted to refer the letter to the Design Review Board for
recommendation.

Dear Mr. Editor:
P.O. Box 699
Iowa City, Iowa 52240
2418 Princeton Road
Iowa City, Iona
September 9, 3974
At the City Council raeetirtg last Tuesday, a repret3er.tative
of the Democrat party requested :apace in the urban redevelop-
ment area for oampaigh purposes. The suggestion was made by
the Democrat Chairperson that the Republican Party tijas also
interested.
Through your paper I Mould like to respond that the Republiceri
Party is not interested in urban renewal space for this
campaign year. We had made several earlier inquiries which
had been completely rebuffed. Since then we have acquired
private space above McDonald Optical on Clinton Street. We
very satisfied wtiith it.
It would seem that the City Council should not chalige their
!;olicies to benefit the political leanings of just a few. It
was aloo improper for the Democrat party to imply agreements
which were not made nor likely to occur.
cc City Council
Sincerely,
Aaklvo�

SUBJECT: Attached Policy Position
September 5, 1974
In order to help you better understand Sioux City's
Position on the question of tax relief for Iowa cities,
the other Council members and I thought you might be
interested in our response to the League questionnaire
recently directed to each of us.
As you can see, we strongly feel the key point to be
emphasized in any discussion is Property Tax Relief.
We believe that only be emphasizing this aspect of
municipal tax reform do we stand any chance of gaining
legislative and public acceptance for our program.
We are looking forward to seeing you September 20th
in Sioux city.

Mayors and Managers - 27 Largest Cities Group
Executive Director - League of Iowa Municipalities
Mayor and City Council, Sioux City, Iowa
SUBJECT: PROPERTY TAX RELIEF
The Sioux City Council Position
(A Response to the League Questionnaire on
Criteria for Financing Local Government)
The following comments on the questions asked in the League
Questionnaire represent a consensus of opinion endorsed by all
five members of the Sioux City Council and the City Manager.
1. What should be the League's top priority in financing local
government?
Broadening of the tax base for support of municipal govern-
ment and a concerted move away from excessive reliance on
the property tax should be our top priority in any change
in finance for local government in Iowa.
The property tax has become burdensome and excessive for
the majority of homeowners and businessmen in cities
throughout Iowa. Moreover, this tax does not accurately
reflect ability to pay and often places the greatest burden
on those least able to afford it, the retired on a fixed
income and low-income homeowners. It also creates a dis-
incentive to maintain and modernize property and, thus,
is a major deterrent to community growth and renewal.
From the point of view of local government, the property
tax base is unresponsive to changes in the economy and, thus,
in inflationary periods such as we are currently experiencing,
while the burden is great on property owners, the revenues
generated to support local services do not keep up with the
rising cost of providing those services.
In sum, removal of the excessive, debilitating burden of
property tax - a burden both on property owner/taxpayers
and local officials dedicated to providing needed and
valuable local services - must be our first priority.

To accomplish this goal, the Sioux City Council favors
relying first upon a broadly-based local option taxation
authority, the scope of which will be explored below,
tying the implementation of any such local taxes to mandatory
property tax relief while broadening the base of support for
municipal government.
If some sort of guaranteed, expanded State Municipal
Assistance Program, which would be adequate, automatic
predictable and responsive, (such as dedicating a fixed
percentage of state sales and use tax or income tax
revenues to municipal assistance) can be devised, this
would also be acceptable as an alternate means of providing
property tax relief.
2. How should a local option tax be imposed?
The City Council of the City of Sioux City endorses the
broadest possible practical range of choices in implementing
financial home rule through local option. In short, any
one, two or more local governments should be allowed to
jointly impose a local option tax upon which they can
agree and which, in their opinion, fits local financial
realities.
3. What percentage of Local Option Tax should be earmarked
for property tax reduction?
Our earlier answer obviously indicates a great concern for
providing property tax relief as one of the major goals
of such legislation. We believe that up to 50% of any
new revenue initially generated by any local taxes should
be utilized for such tax relief.
4. What would be the best procedure for initiating local option?
The City Council of Sioux City feels that a Council -initiated
local option tax, with required public reporting of the uses
of the revenue (similar to the general revenue sharing Planned
Use and Actual Use reports) coupled with a reverse referendum
provision (on the question of discontinuance of the tax and
the tax -supported programs) after four years experience with
the chosen local option, would be the best method of demon-
strating the benefits of a broadened tax base and the soundest
procedure for initiating such tax reform and relief.
5. What types of taxes should be embodied in a local option bill?
Consistent with the spirit of home rule, the options available
for local consideration in formulating an effective property
r7l
L` -A
tax relief plan should be of the broadest range possible,
including at least: sales tax, income tax surcharge, earnings
tax, payroll tax and wheel tax.
6. If local option were limited to only sales tax, would you
favor one-half cent additional or one cent of additional tax?
We would favor authority fo'r up to lfi of additional local
sales tax. However, it should be emphasized we do not
endorse the concept of a local option tax bill limited
to sales tax only, as such a bill would not be useful to
many communities and would not be consistent with the
spirit of home rule. (See answer to question #5, above.)
7. liow should any local option tax be collected?
Whenever possible, the local tax should be collected by
existing collection authorities and mechanisms to avoid
creating additional bureaucracies and added costs and
record keeping requirements for local citizens, both
individual and corporate. Practically, this means piggy-
back collection systems for such taxes whether by the Iowa
Department of Revenue for sales and use, income, earnings and
payroll taxes or by the County Treasurer for motor vehicle
or wheel taxes. A small servicing charge should be retained
for such collection services.
8. How should such a tax be discontinued?
Our answer to this question is already outlined in the
answer to question #4 - by citizen referendum with an
understanding of the effect of elimination of the broadened
tax base and discontinuance of services supported by the
additional revenue. Provision for City Council reduction or
elimination should also be allowed.
9. How much should state.assistance be increased?
Our answer to question #1 speaks to a concept which we
believe vital here. Any municipal assistance fund increase
should be tied either to a percentage of income raised by
the state in a given municipality, or to some other type
of tax allocation based upon a local tax effort formula.
To be useful in relieving the property tax burden, such a
provision must be automatic, reliable and not subject to
the whims of the biennial legislative appropriation process.
Consistent with these conditions, the assistance increase
is
should be as large as possible to provide the greatest amount
of property tax relief possible.

Position
As can be readily seen from our comments in response to the questions
posed, we, the Council Members of Sioux City, strongly feel that
there is a critical need to institute a viable property tax relief
program for municipal taxes in Iowa while, at the same time, avoiding
unnecessary compromise of the essential principle of municipal home
rule so recently granted to Iowa's cities. In times of rapid
inflation such as we are currently experiencing, this need is more
acute than in more normal times. We believe action is needed as
soon as possible on a property tax relief program such as outlined
above.

® ABSTRACT
of
SPECIAL POPULATIONS INVOLVEMENT PROGRAM (S.P.I.)
The Special Populations Involvement Program (S.P.I.) is a pilot
project based on a survey conducted during June and July, 1974. (See
appendices) A sample population of two -hundred handicapped individuals was
determined by the investigators. With approximately one -hundred surveys
returned, the need for recreational services to handicapped individuals in
Iowa City was established. The survey focused on determining the past and
current involvement of handicapped individuals in recreational activities.
In addition, much demographic data was collected on the sample population.
The recreational needs of this group were identified and analyzed. The
findings indicate a definite lack of involvement and knowledge of
recreation and leisure resources.
As a result of the survey findings, it was decided in late July
that a proposal for a community based recreation program for special
populations should be developed and submitted to the Director of Parks and
Recreation for preliminary review. (See appendices)
As a pilot project, Special Populations Involvement, is a tentative
program addition to current recreational services provided by Iowa City
® Park and Recreation Department. It is intended to provide recreation
services to a segment of our population that currently are not receiving
services. The program goals and consumer goals have been identified in
the proposed program. (See appendices)
The program will be coordinated by Dr. David Compton, Assistant
Professor at the University of Iowa's Recreation Education Program and
project coordinator of the USOE/BEH Training Grant. Direct supervision
of S.P.I. will be provided by two USOE/BEH graduate students, Carol
Stensrud and Twyla Misselhorn. Volunteer personnel will. be provided by
undergraduate therapeutic recreation classes and related disciplines at the
University of Iowa. Dr. Compton will report directly to Mr. Lee,
Superintendent of City Recreation, on all matters concerning the program.
The Iowa City Park and Recreation Department is primarily responsible
for provision of facilities. The University of Iowa Recreation Education
Program and the USOE/BEH Training Grant will be responsible for providing
personnel. Donations and contributions will be sought from rehabilitation
agencies and other benefactors to provide equipment and supplies for the
program.
Handicapped individuals will be sought from rehabilitation agencies,
parent organizations, institutions, and the community at large. It is
anticipated in the first year of the project that S.P.I. will service
1S-20 children and 15-20 adults.
September 30, 1974 is the tentative date for starting the program.
This is subject to the approval of the City Council and the Parks and
Recreation Commission:

(1) HUD shall approve applications unless (A) on the basis of significant facts and data, generally
available and pertaining to community and housing needs and objectives, HUD determines that the
community's description of such needs and objectives is plainly inconsistent with such facts or data; or
(B) on the basis of the application, HUD determines that the activities to be undertaken by the com-
munity are plainly inappropriate to meeting the needs and objectives identified by the community
In its application; or (C) HUD determines that the application does not comply with the requirements
of this title or other applicable law or proposes activities which are ineligible.
(2) HUD shall at least on an annual basis make such reviews and audits as may be necessary or
appropriate to determine whether the community has carried out a program substantially as described
In its application, whether that program conformed to the requirements of this title and other
applicable laws, and whether the community has a continuing capacity to carry out in a timely manner
the approved C. D. Program. HUD may make appropriate adjustments in the amount of the annual
grants in accordance with Its findings.
(3) Applicptions, if submitted after any date established by HUD for consideration of applications, shall
be deemed approved within 75 days after receipt unless HUD informs the community of specific
reasons of disapproval. Subsequent to the approval of any application, the amount of the grant may
be adjusted in accordance with the provision of the statute.
(4) GAO is authorized to have access to a community's accounts, records, etc. for auditing purposes.
All units of general purpose local governments would be eligible to seek block grant funding directly from
HUD. The total national appropriation for C. D. would be divided (after setting aside $50 million in
FY 75 and 76 for later addition to SMSA balances and after taking 2 percent off the top for the HUD
discretionary fund):
--80To for activities to be undertaken in metropolitan (SMSA) areas;
--20'70 for activities to be undertaken in non -SMSA areas.
Metropolitan (SMSA) Areas --
Definitions/Metropolitan City: A central city or any other city over 50,000 population within an SMSA.
A limited number of towns with populations over 50,000, which possess powers and perform functions
comparable to cities, would be defined as metropolitan cities.
Urban County: A county within an SMSA which
a) Is authorized under state law to undertake essential community development and housing assistance
activities In its unincorporated areas, if any, which are not units of general local government, and
b) has a combined population of 200,000 or more (excluding the population of metropolitan cities
therein) in such unincorporated areas and in its Included unite of general local government
1) in which it has the authority to undertake essential community development and housing assistance
activities and which do not elect to have their population excluded or
2) with which it has entered into cooperation agreements to undertake or to assist in the undertaking
of essential community development and housing assistance activities.
Basic Grant Entitlement --Each metropolitan city and urban county would be eligible for a basic grant
entitlement equal to the greater of its formula or hold harmless allocation.
Formula --From the 80 percent fund reserved for metropolitan areas, each metropolitan city and urban
county would be computed a formula share. Three criteria would be used: population, poverty (double
weighted, income figures regionalized), and housing overcrowding. In computing shares for any urban
county, there would be excluded the demography attributable to a smaller community (other than a
metropolitan city) within the county which is entitled to hold harmless commitments and the population
of which is not counted in determining the initial eligibility of the county itself --unless such smaller
community exercises its right to waive its hold harmless entitlement.
Hold Harmless --Each metropolitan city or urban county would be eligible for a minimum funding alloca-
tion or hold harmless amount. That amount would be the sum of --
a) The sum of the average of all grants, loans or advances received during FY 68-72 under each of
the consolidated programs, except NDP and Model Cities,
b) The average annual grant made under Model Cities during FY 68-72, and
c) The average annual grant made under the Neighborhood Development Program during 17Y 68-72, or
during FY 73 for the first-time NDPs. (Grants or loans made to assist in recovery from natural
disasters, and grants made to assist in the initial lmplementaticn of the 1970 Uniform Relocation
Assistance Act are understood to be excluded from this computation.)
Model Cities --In determining the average annual grant under Model Cities, a spending rate calculation
would be used. The Model Cities portion of the hold harmless amount for a community would continue at
100 percent so long as was necessary for the community to complete its "fifth action year" under its local
program; In the subsequent 3 years, the Model Cities portion of hold harmless would decrease 8070,
60%, 40%.

A smaller community with no formula share would be eligible for funding at least equal to the alx,ve hold
harmless computation if, during FY 68-72, or during FY 73 for first time NDPs, one or more urban
renewal code enforcement, neighborhood development, or model cities programs were being carried
out. Such a smaller community with a hold harmless amount could irrevocably waive its eligibility
for this amount not later than 30 days prior to the beginning of each program year in fal ir of seeking
greater funding from unallocated discretionary funds.
Phase-In/Formula--If a metropolitan city's or urban county's formula exceeds its hold harmless in
the community's first program year, its actual allocation would be subject to adjustment as follows:
In the first year, the allocation would be the greater of one-third of formula or hold harmless; in the
second year, the greater of two-thirds of formula or hold harmless; in the third year, formula.
Phase-Down/Hold Harmless --During FY 75, 76, and 77, a community would be eligible for 100 percent
of its hold harmless amount (excepting the separate phase down of the Model Cities credit). During
FY 78, 79, and 80, any community with a hold harmless amount larger than its formula would have
the difference between the two amounts phased down to zero in three equal steps (2/3, 1/3, zero).
Smaller hold harmless communities with no formula shares would be treated as if their formula amount
was zero. Regarding the provision excluding the demography of such smaller communities within a
potential urban county from the counry's demography, HUD would exclude 2/3 of such data in FY 78,
1/3 in FY 79, and none in FY 80.
SMSA Balances --After completing the allocation of formula funds to metropolitan cities and urban counties
and of hold harmless funds to all eligible units of general local government within metropolitan areas,
the balance of metropolitan funds would be distributed among all SMSAs by formula, using the same
criteria as with metropolitan cities, but excluding the demography of all formula and hold harmless
communities within each SMSA. In FY 75 and 76, the $50 million initially set aside from the total
appropriation would be reinserted at this point.
Re -allocation --Any formula or hold harmless amounts allocated to a metropolitan city or urban county
which are not applied for during a program period, or which are not approved by I1UD, and any other
amounts allocated to a metropolitan area which HUD determines, on the basis of the applications and
other evidence available, are not likely to be fully obligated during such program period, shall be
reallocated during the same period for use by States, metropolitan cities, urban counties, or other
units of general local government, first, in any metropolitan area in the same Stare, and second, in
any other metropolitan area. HUD shall review determinations under this procedure from time to time
as appropriate with a view of assuring maximum use of all available funds in the period for which such
funds were appropriated.
Program Period --The period from 1/1/75 to 6/30/75, and the period covering each fiscal year thereafter.
Non -Metropolitan Areae --
Hold Harmless --A unit of'general local government outside an SMSA would be eligible for a hold
harmless amount in the same fashion as would be a unit of general local government (other than a
metropolitan city or urban county) within an SMSA. Similarly, this hold harmless amount would
phase down to zero by FY 80.
Non -SMSA Balances --After meeting hold harmless requirements, the balance of the 20 percent
non -SMSA fund would be allocated among the non -metropolitan areas of the country, by state, using the
same three formula criteria as above and excluding the demography of non -SMSA hold harmless
communities. HUD (not the state), would administer the distribution of these funds. HUD is required
to reallocate unutilized non -SMSA funds similar to the procedure for SMSA funds outlined above.
Discretionary Fund --Of the total amount appropriated for C. D. during each of FY 75, 76, and 77,
HUD shall reserve, off the top, 2 percent of the funds to be set aside in a special discretionary
fund to be used by HUD as grants
a) on behalf of new communities;
b) to states and localities carrying out housing and C. D. programa that are areawide in scope;
c) in Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands;
d) to states and localities for the purpose of demonstrating innovative C. D. projects;
e) to states and localities for the purpose of meeting emergency C. D. needs caused by federally
recognized disasters (total not to exceed 40 percent of special discretionary fund in any one year); and
f) to localities where HUD deems it necessary to correct inequities resulting from the allocation
provision of this title.

its recommendations for modifying or expanding the provisions of the C. D. program relating to the
Foods
method of funding, the allocation of funds, the determination of the basic grant entitlement, and the
(continued)
application of such provisions In the future distribution of funds under this program. In making this
report, HUD shall conduct a study to determine how C. D. funds can be distributed in accordance with
C. D. needs, objectives, and capacities, measured to the maximum feasible extent by objective
standards.
9. Loan Provision
The bill provides for federal guarantees of local financing of certain block grant activities. Loans could
cover the cost of acquiring and assembling real property, of site and other improvements, of interest,
demolition, and relocation. Administrative costs and eligible "software" activities would not be covered.
There would be no direct federal loans. Each community receiving a federal guarantee w(uld, in
turn, be requlred to give its full faith and credit commitment to raise the estimated proceeds from the
disposition of the real property and related items covered by the loan. The community would designate
a portion of Its block grant allocation to cover the difference between the value of the loan and the
estimated proceeds.
HUD would reserve 110 percent of this designated portion of the community's grant. In the event of an
unanticipated, major reduction In land values, the projection of estimated proceeds would be subject
to renegotiation. Other shortfalls from estimated receipts would have to be absorbed by the community.
In the event of a default by the community, and where HUD exhausts its legal rights without satisfaction,
[IUD would be authorized to offset any losses against future grant allocations due that community.
On an optional basis, communities could use taxable obligations to finance their programs In which case
30 percent interest subsidy grants would be available from HUD, funded by an authorization separate
from the block grant.
10. Completion of
Use of Grants to Settle Outstanding Urban Renewal Loans --The blU provides for a procedure to complete
Existing Urban
unfinished conventional urban renewal projects, particularly where additional funds are needed to effect
Renewal Projects
such a completion. The process could be initiated either
a) By HUD, where it determines, after consultation with the LPA carrying out the project and the
chief executive of the locality, that the project cannot be completed without additional capital grants, or
b) By the LPA carrying out the project, after submitting to HUD an appropriate request which is
concurred in by the governing body of the locality.
HUD would determine the funds needed to complete the project as planned by making an accounting for
eacb project, taking into consideration the costs incurred or to be Incurred, the estimated proceeds
upon any sale or disposition of property and the capital grants approved for the project. Where
additional funds were determined to be necessary in order for the project to be completed under the
existing contract, the bill would authorize HUD to earmark up to 20 percent of the annual block grant
allocation for the community. House Committee Report language states that, in the case of communities
needing large amounts of additional funds relative to the size of their annual block grant allocation, HUD
would also be expected to utilize available "transition" funds (i.e. the separate funds approved for each
of the first three years).

single program of community development block grants. Major features include:
Purposes. The primary objective of the title is the development of viable urban communities by providing
decent housing and a suitable living environment and expanding economic opportunities, principally for
persons of low- and moderate -income. This objective is to be achieved through elimination of slums and blight
and detrimental living conditions, conservation and expansion of housing and housing opportunities, increased
Public services, improved use of land, Increased neighborhood diversity, and preservation of property with
special values. It also is the purpose of the title to further development of a national growth policy by
consolidating certain programs into a system which (1) provides assistance annually with maximum certainty
and minimum delay, (2) encourages community development activities consistent with local and areawide
planning, (3) furthers achievement of the national housing goal, and (4) provides for coordinated and mutually
supportive housing and community development activities.

$2.95 billion in fiscal year 1977. To the extent not otherwise obligated, sums appropriated for open space,
water and sewer, neighborhood facilities, and model cities supplemental grants can be used during the first
program year to liquidate contracts entered into pursuant to the $8.4 billion authorization.
In addition, up to $50 million for each of fiscal years 1975 and 1976 and $100 million for fiscal year
1977 is authorized for transition grants to communities with urgent community development needs which

1.1
C
Federal Authority to Review Performance of Approved Applicants and Adjust Assistance Levels
Accordingly. HUD will review programs at least annually and can make adjustments in assistance amounts
where:
the program carried out was not substantially that described in the application
the program did not conform to the requirements of the title or other law
the recipient does not have the continuing capacity to carry out the program in a timely manner.
Environmental Impact Statements. Under regulations of the Secretary, impact statements will not be
required at the time applications are reviewed. Instead, recipients will prepare NEPA-type statements on
specific projects having major impacts on the environment before they commit funds to those projects and
will have to certify compliance to HUD before funds are released.
Permissible Uses of Funds. In general, funds received under this title may be used to assist the type of
activities which were eligible under the prior community development programs. Specific activities may
include:
—acquistion of real property which is
. blighted, deteriorated, deteriorating, or inappropriately developed
• appropriate for rehabilitation and conservation activities
. appropriate for preservation or restoration of historic sites, urban beautification, conservation of open
spaces, natural resources or scenic areas, provision of recreation, or the guidance of urban development
to be used for the provision of eligible public works, facilities, and improvements
to be used for other public purposes.
—acquisition, construction, or installation of public works, facilities, and site or other improvements—
including neighborhood facilities, senior centers, historic properties, utilities, streets, street lights, water and
sewer facilities, foundations for air rights sites, malls and walkways, and recreation facilities. Flood and
drainage facilities are eligible only where assistance under other Federal programs is unavailable. Parking and
solid waste disposal facilities and fire protection services and facilities are eligible only if located in or serving
designated community development areas.
. code enforcement in deteriorated or deteriorating areas expected, together with public improvements
and services, to arrest area decline.
clearance, demolition, removal, and rehabilitation of buildings and improvements including interim
assistance and financing rehabilitation of privately owned properties when incidental to other activities.
. special projects to remove material and architectural barriers restricting mobility and accessibility of
elderly and handicapped persons.
. payments to housing owners for losses of rental income while temporarily holding units to be used for
relocation.
—disposition or retention of acquired real property.
—provision of public services not otherwise available in areas of concentrated activities if necessary to
support such activities, if funding for such services was applied for under any Federal program and denied,
and if such services are directed toward (a) improving public services (employment, economic development,
crime prevention, child care, health, drug abuse, education, welfare, or recreation needs) and (b) coordinating
3
® public and private programs.
—payment of non -Federal share in connection with other Federal programs undertaken as part of the
development program.
—relocation payments and assistance for those displaced by assisted activities.
—activities necessary to develop a comprehensive plan and a policy - planning - mandgement capacity to
more effectively determine needs, set goals, and objectives, develop and eval-ate programs, and carry out
management activities necessary for planning implementation.
—payment of reasonable administrative costs and carrying charges related to the planning and execution
of activities.
Overall Limitations on Use of Funds. Grants are to be conditional on a recipient's certification that its
Community Development Program has been developed so as to give maximum feasible priority to activities
which will benefit low- and moderate -income families or help prevent or eliminate slums or bight. However,
approval also may be given to applications describing activities which the applicant certifies and HUD
determines are designed to meet other community development needs having a particular urgency as
specif'cally described in the application.
In addition, not more than 10 percent of estimated activity costs can be for local option activities or
contingency accounts.
Distribution of Funds
areas. Urban -rural split. 80 percent of funds to metropolitan areas (SMSAs); 20 percent to nonmetropolitan
Formula used to allocate funds. An objective formula will be used for community development
assistance of cities, counties, metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. The formula is based on population,
amount of housing overcrowding, and extent of poverty (counted twice).
Required distribution of funds to metropolitan cities and urban counties. If they meet application
requirements, cities with populations of 50,000 and over and central cities of SMSAs are entitled to formula
funds. These funds are to be distributed directly to them according to their needs measured against those of
other cities. Formula funds may exceed prior program levels but, where there is an excess, the city will be
"phased -in" up to its full formula level over a three-year period. Urban counties also are entitled to formula
funding based on their relative needs if they have power to undertake essential community development and
housing assistance activities (directly or by' agreement) in areas, excluding metropolitan cities and incorporated
units of general local government which elect to be excluded, that have a population of 200,000 or more.
Funding based on prior program levels. In addition to formula entitlement which will be paid to all
metropolitan cities and urban counties, those cities and counties which had been receiving a higher level of
funding under the prior programs will continue to receive this higher level (be "held -harmless") during the
first three years. Over the last three years of the title, the excess over formula will be phased out by thirds.
However, cities and counties which had been receiving model cities grants will receive a full model cities
"hold -harmless" amount long enough to' give each the equivalent of five action years under the program and
additionally will receive a declining percentage (80, 60 and 40 percent) of the full amount for a three-year
period following the community's fifth action year. Amounts released by phase-out of hold -harmless amounts
will be available for discretionary funding.
Smaller communities which have been participating in model cities, urban renewal (including NDP) or
code enforcement will receive the same "hold -harmless:' treatment even though they have no formula
entitlement.

model cities, or code enforcement can apply for assistance out of funds not used for entitlement payments.
These funds will be divided among SMSAs, and non -SMSA areas of the various States, based on relative needs
as determined by formula. For each of fiscal years 1975 and 1976, $50 million from appropriations will be
added to the funds available for use in SMSAs.
Special provisions for assistance beyond the basic allocation as described above. Up to S50 million in each
of fiscal years 1975 and 1976 and $100 million for fiscal year 1977 will be authorized for "transitional"
grants to assist communities with ipecial needs that cannot be met from the allocation provisions described
above. Also, 2 percent of funds for each year will be set aside for a national "discretionary" fund which can
be used for grants:
in behalf of assisted "new communities"
to carry out areawide housing and community development programs
In Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands
to meet emergency community development needs caused by federally -recognized disasters (not more
than one-fourth of total amount reserved for each year available for this purpose)
. to correct inequities resulting from the title's allocation provisions.
Loans. HUD is authorized to guarantee obligations issued by grant recipients (or public agencies
designated by them) to finance acquisition or assembly of real property (and related expenses) to serve or be
used in carrying out eligible activities which are identified in the application and for which grants under this
title have been or are to be made. HUD will (1) reserve out of grant funds for that recipient at least 110
percent of estimated difference between acquisition costs and disposition proceeds, (2) receive a local pledge
of full faith and credit or revenues for the replacement of excess over amount reserved, and (3) receive local
pledges of future grant proceeds of any additional sums not otherwise repaid. Guarantee obligations are to be
taxable or tax free at the option of the issuer. If taxable, HUD will make grants to the issuer for up to 30
percent of net interest cost.
Reporting Requirements. HUD will make an annual report to Congress concerning the progress made in
accomplishing program objectives and use of funds during the preceding year.
Consultation. HUD is required to consult with other Federal agencies in carrying out the provisions of the
community development program.
Labor Standards. The prevailing wage requirements of the Davis -Bacon Act apply to work by all laborers
and mechanics employed on any construction funded under the title except for rehabilitation of residential
property involving fewer than eight units.
Interstate Agreements. Congressional consent is given to two or more States to enter into agreements and
establish agencies for cooperative effort concerning interstate and local community development planning and
programs.
Transitional Authorizations. "Such sums as may be necessary" are authorized for urban renewal and
model cities Programs for FY 1975. Amounts received pursuant to these authorizations will be offset against
first year entitlement or "hold -harmless" amounts received by localities out of FY 1975 block grant funds.
Close-out of Urban Renewal Projects. The Secretary is authorized to apply up to 20 percent of the grants
made or to be made to the locality under the title toward repayment of outstanding temporary urban renewal
loans where (1) he determines, after consultation with the local renewal agency and the chief executive officer
of the locality, that an urban renewal project cannot be completed without additional capital grants, or (2)
the local public agency makes an appropriate request. The Secretary may apply a higher percentage of a
locality's allocation upon the request of the recipient.
In addition, upon application of the local renewal agency and approval of the locality, the Secretary may
0
approve a financial settlement of an urban renewal project where he finds that there will be surplus of capital
grants after payment of temporary,,. loan indebtedness. He.. may authorize the locality to transfer any such
surplus for use under the title. ,
® Advances. HUD is authorized to make advances to metropolitan cities, urban counties and "hold -
harmless" cities of up to 10 percent of their first year (FY 1976) entitlements for use in continuing urban
renewal or model cities programs, or preparing for implementation of the block grant program.
Nondiscrimination and Remedies for Noncompliance. The new law expressly prohibits discrimination on
the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex under the community development program. If discrimination
is found, HUD must notify the chief elected official of the grant recipient, and request compliance. If
compliance is not secured within 60 days, HUD may refer the matter to the Attorney General for suit;
exercise the powers under Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act; terminate, reduce, or limit the availability of
grant payments; or take other legal action.
If after a hearing it finds substantial noncompliance, on the basis of discrimination or otherwise, with any
provision of this title, HUD may terminate, reduce, or limit the availability of grant payments to the recipient
until the noncompliance is remedied. Suits by the Attorney General are authorized to recover payments in
lieu of, or addition to, reduction, termination, or limitation of grant payments by HUD.
Employment Opportunities for Lower-income Persons. To the greatest extent feasible, training, employ.
ment, and work opportunities available under block grant programs are to be given to lower-income residents
and business concerns located in areas of program activities.
PUBLIC HOUSING AMENDMENTS
The new measure revises the law governing the low -rent public housing program (eliminating some
provisions and altering others), provides additional annual contributions contract authority, and authorizes a
new lower-income housing assistance program under the revised law. Among the many changes from prior law
are the following:
Contract authority. Additional annual contributions contract authority of $1.225 billion per annum is
made available in the current fiscal year. At least $150 million of the additional authority is to be reserved for
the development of housing owned by public housing agencies, with at least 50 percent of the units assisted
with reserved funds required to be other than under the new program.
Also, at least $15 million per annum of the aggregate subsidy authorization available in FY 1975
(increased to at least $30 million in FY 1976) is to be set aside for Indians other than under the new
program, and operating subsidies are required to cover "approved" operating cost deficits of projects financed
with set-aside funds.
Operating subsidies. Operating subsidies are separately authorized, but are limited to $500 million per
annum of the aggregate FY 1975 contract authorization, increased by $60 million in FY 1976.
Operating subsidies are to be provided for in annual contributions contracts, subject to the availability of
funds. For purposes of paying such subsidies, the Secretary is directed to establish costs of project operation
and reasonable projections of income, based either on actual project characteristics or on prototype
well-managed project performance criteria.
Eligibility and occupancy. The measure continues the provision authorizing public housing agencies to fix,
subject to approval by the Secretary, income limits for occupancy and rents in traditional public housing.
However, it deletes the requirements for (1) a gap of at least 20 percent between the highest income limits for
admission and the lowest unassisted rents and (2) income limits for continued occupancy in projects.
Definition of income. Family income is redefined. For families in units assisted under the new
lower-income housing assistance program, details of which are outlined below, income is defined as total
J
V
® family income. For families in regular public housing, income, for purposes of the Brooke I limitation,
continues to be adjusted in accordance with a statutorily prescribed formula which has been revised by
eliminating double deductions for secondary wage earner spouses, clarifying deductions for dependents,.
eliminating deductions for heads of households or their spouses, and adding a deduction for foster child care
payments made to a family.
Definition of family. The law makes eligible for occupancy two or more single elderly, disabled, or
handicapped individuals living together, or one or more such individuals living with another person determined
essential to their well-being.
Minimum rents. A requirement is added under which every family in regular public housing is required,
regardless of the size of its income, to contribute at least 5 percent of its gross income to rent; if the family
receives a welfare payment a part of which is specifically designated for housing, the family's minimum rent is
to be the higher of 5 percent of gross income or the amount so designated. However, increased rents for
public housing tenants required as a result of amendments effected by the statutory revisions—other than the
welfare payment provision—are to be phased in at a rate of not more than $5 every 6 months.
For families in the new program, the lowest possible contribution to rent is to be 15 percent of total
family income, with the Secretary authorized to establish a higher required contribution level (up to 25
percent of total family income) for certain classes of families (see below).
Also, the aggregate minimum rental required to be paid in any year by families in any project
administered by a public housing agency receiving operating subsidies is to be an amount at least equal to 20
percent of the sum of the incomes of all such families.
Management practices. Public housing agencies are to be required to establish (1) tenant selection criteria
to assure an income mix in projects (but waiting for higher income tenants where lower income tenants are
available is not to be permitted), (2) procedures for prompt rent payments and evictions for nonpayment, (3)
effective tenant -management relationships to assure tenant safety and adequate project maintenance, and (4)
viable homeownership opportunities.
Also, at least 20 percent of families in any project placed under annual contributions in any fiscal year
beginning after the effective date of the requirement are required to have incomes not in excess of 50 percent
of area median income.
Homeownership. Homeownership for public housing tenant families will be facilitated by authorizing the
sale of projects to tenants (and the purchase and resale to tenants of structures under section 8) and the
continuation of up to debt service annual contributions with respect to units sold to tenants.
Lower-income housing assistance program. The law authorizes a new lower-income housing assistance
program to be implemented not later than January 1, 1975. The new program authority replaces existing
authority for assistance with respect to low-income housing in private accommodations (section 23). Major
features of the new program (contained in section 8 of the proposed revised U.S. Housing Act of 1937) are as .
follows:
. Assistance will be provided on behalf of eligible families occupying new, substantially rehabilitated, or
existing rental units through assistance payments contracts with owners (who may be private owners,
cooperatives, or public housing agencies, which are broadly defined to include agencies assisting in the
development or operation of low-income housing as well as those directly engaged in such activities).
. Eligible families are those who, at the time of initial renting of units, have total annual family incomes
not in excess of 80 percent of area median income, with adjustments for smaller and larger families, but the
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development may establish higher or lower income ceilings if he finds such
variations necessary because of prevailing levels of construction costs, unusually high or low family incomes,
or other factors,
. Major responsibility for program administration is vested in the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development, who can contract directly with owners or prospective owners (which may be public housing
0 7
agencies) who agree to construct or substantially rehabilitate housing. In the case of existing units, public
housing agencies will contract with owners, except that the Secretary may do `so diroctly where no public
housing agency has been organized or where he determines a public housing agency is unable to implement
® the program.
Assistance payments contracts will specify the maximum monthly rent which may be charged for each
assisted unit. Maximum rents may not exceed by more than 10 percent a fair market rent established by the
Secretary periodically but not less than annually for existing or newly constructed rental units or various sizes
and types suitable for occupancy by eligible families, except that maximum rents may exceed fair market
rents by up to 20 percent where the Secretary determines that special circumstances warrant or that such
higher rents are necessary to implement an approved housing assistance plan. Fair market rent schedules will
be published for comment prior to being implemented by publication in the final form in the Federal
Register.
. The amount of assistance provided with respect to a unit will be an amount equal to the difference
between the established maximum rent for the unit and the occupant family's required contribution to rent.
. Aided families will be required to contribute not less than 15 nor more than 25 percent of their total
family income to rent, with the Secretary authorized to establish required contribution i^ve!s, taking into
consideration the family's income, the number of minor children in the household, and the extent of medical
or other unusual expenses incurred by the family; however, the required contribution level will be statutorily
fixed at 15 percent of total income for (1) very large families with total incomes of between 50 and 80
percent of area median income, (2) large families with total incomes not over 50 percent of area median
income, and (3) families with exceptional medical or other expenses.
. At least 30 percent of the families assisted with annual contract authority allocations must be families
with gross incomes not in excess of 50 percent of area median income, subject to adjustment by the
Secretary.
. Maximum rent levels will be adjusted annually or more frequently to reflect changes in fair market
rentals established for the area for similar sizes and types of dwelling units or, if the Secretary determines, on
the basis of a reasonable formula. Also, the Secretary will make additional adjustments to the extent he
determines such adjustments are necessary to reflect increases in the actual and necessary expenses of owning
and maintaining the units which have resulted from substantial general increases in real property taxes, utility
rates, or similar costs which are not adequately compensated for by the annual adjustments. However, rent
adjustments may not result in material differences between rents for assisted and comparable unassisted units.
. Up to 100 percent of the units in a structure may be assisted, upon application of the owner or
Prospective owner, but in cases involving projects containing more than 50 units which are designed for use
primarily by nonelderly and nonhandicapped persons, the Secretary may give preference to projects involving
not more than 20 percent assisted units.
. Assistance payments for any unit may run for a minimum period of one month and for the following
maximum periods. In the case of existing units, payments may be made for as long as 180 months. In the
case of new or substantially rehabilitated units, payments may be made for up to 240 months (except that if
the project is owned by, or financed by a loan or loan guarantee from, a.State or local agency, payments may
run for as long as 480 months).
. Owners of new or substantially rehabilitated assisted units will assume all ownership, management, and
maintenance responsibilities, including the selection of tenants and the termination of tenancy, but the owner
may contract for such services with any entity, including a public housing agency, approved by the Secretary
for the performance of such responsibilities. Owners of existing units also will select tenants, but selections are
to be subject to annual contributions contract requirements, and public housing agencies will have the sole
right to give notice to vacate, although owners will have the right to make representations to the agency. Also,
maintenance and replacement with respect to existing units will be in accordance with standard practice for
the building concerned and the owner and the public housing agency may carry out other terms and
conditions upon mutual agreement.
. Assistance may be continued with respect to unoccupied units, but only for up to 60 days if a family
vacates before its lease is up or where a good faith effort is being made to fill an unoccupied unit.
. The Secretary is directed to take such steps as may be necessary to assure that assistance payments are
1.1
11
E
11
0
increased on a timaly basis to cover increases in maximum monthly rents or decreases in family incomes. Such
steps are to include the making.of assistance payments contracts in excess of the amounts required at the time
of the initial renting of units, the reservation of annual contributions authority to amend housing assistance
contracts, or the allocation of part of new authorizations to amend such contracts.
. Newly constructed or substantially rehabilitated dwelling units to be assisted under the program are to
be eligible for mortgage insurance under FHA programs; and assistance with respect to such units may not be
withheld or made subject to preferences because of the availability for such units of mortgage insurance on a
co-insurance basis or by reason of the tax exempt status of the bonds or other obligations to be used io
finance such construction or rehabilitation.
. Assistance is to be available with respect to (1) units in cooperatives (occupancy charges are to be
deemed to be rent for purposes of making assistance payments) and (2), in accordance with regulations of the
Secretary, some or all of the units in a section 202 project for the elderly or handicapped.
. Davis -Bacon Act labor standards requirements will apply to new construction or substantial rehabilita-
tion projects containing nine or more units.
Other provisions permit local housing authority bonds with flexible maturities and balloon payments to
finance public housing projects; and prohibit HUD from applying new administrative policies to projects in
derogation of rights of an owner under a lease entered into prior to establishment of the policy.
The measure authorizes the Secretary to make the new provisions effective up to 18 months following
enactment. However, as previously noted, the new lower-income housing assistance program must be put into
effect no later than January 1, 1975. Also, provisions relating to adjusted family income, minimum rents, and
a requirement that at least 20 percent of the families in any project other than under the new program be
very low-income families must be implemented on a single date (not necessarily January 1, 1975), and
provisions relating to debt service and operating subsidy authorizations also must be implemented on a single
date.
HOUSING FOR THE ELDERLY
Project standards. The Secretary of HUD is directed to consult with the Secretary of HEW to insure that
special projects for the elderly or handicapped authorized pursuant to the public housing statute meet
acceptable design standards, provide quality services and management, contain such "related facilities" as may
be necessary to accommodate special needs of intended occupants, and are in support of and supported by
applicable State and area plans.
Section 202 program. The measure revises the section 202 direct loan program for housing for the elderly
and handicapped. Major changes include:
. loans made at rate equal to Treasury borrowing rate plus adequate allowances for administrative costs
and probable losses.
• eligibility for occupancy expanded to include developmentally -disabled individuals.
. directions to the Secretary to seek to assure that housing and related facilities assisted under the
program are in support of, and supported by, applicable State and local plans responding to Federal
requirements for provision of an assured range of necessary services for occupants.
. authority for the Secretary to issue notes for purchase by the Secretary of Treasury in the aggregate
amount of $800 million.
. limiting lending to aid in development of 202 projects in any fiscal year to the limits on such lending
authority established for such year in appropriation Acts.
. requiring the Secretary to consider the availability of assistance under the section 8 program when
determining section 202 project feasibility.
. requiring the Secretary to assure that projects aided under both section 202 and the section 8 program
serve both low- and moderate -income families in a mix appropriate for the area and viable project operation.

0 MORTGAGE CREDIT (FHA) AMENDMENTS
11
The new law makes a variety of changes in FHA authorities, although it does not involve (as had been
proposed) a complete rewriting and consolidation of the National Housing Act. Specific amendments include
the following:
Increases in mortgage limits. FHA mortgage insurance limits are increased as follows:
. Basic single-family home mortgage limits are increased about 36 percent (from $33,000 to $45,000).
. Mortgage limits are increased about 20 percent for the lower income nonsubsidized section 221(d)(2)
program and for the subsidized homeownership section 235 program.
Basic multifamily per unit mortgage limits are increased about 30 percent.
The per unit mortgage limits are increased about 20 percent for the sections 22 i %uj(3) and 23E
multifamily lower income subsidy rental programs.
Overall- project mortgage limits. Overall maximum project mortgage dollar limits previously applicable
under FHA multifamily, group practice, hospital, nursing home, and land development programs are removed.
Energy conservation. The Secretary is required to promote the use of energy saving techniques through
minimum property standards established for newly constructed residential housing subject to mortgages
insured under the National Housing Act.
Co-insurance demonstration program. A new FHA co-insurance authority is established and contains the
following major features:
(1) Usage and liability—Use is optional with lenders, who must assume at least 10 percent of any loss,
subject to a limitation on overall liability for catastrophic losses.
(2) Expiration of authority—June 30, 1977.
(3) Limits on use—The aggregate principal amount of coinsured mortgages and loans may not exceed 20
percent of the aggregate dollar amount of all home mortgages insured and 20 percent of the aggregate dollar
amount of all multifamily mortgages insured.
(4) Sharing of premiums—The sharing of premiums between HUD and lenders is required to be on an
actuarially sound basis.
(5) Consumer protections—Construction under the demonstration program must be inspected to ascertain
whether minimum standards applicable under the regular program are met. HUD must consult with the
mortgage lending industry to determine that the demonstration does not disrupt the mortgage market or make
100 percent mortgage insurance unavailable to those who need it. HUD may not withdraw, deny, or delay
insurance under other programs because of the availability of co-insurance.
(6) Reports—HUD is required to report by March 1, 1975, and annually thereafter, describing the results
of co-insurance experiments and presenting recommendations.
Section 235 program. Insurance authority for this subsidized homeownership program is extended for 2
years only. The amount of unused contract authority previously approved in appropriation Acts is available
for 1 year from enactment and then will lapse. Any additional contract authority is subject to approval in
appropriation Acts. Other amendments include:
. Continuation of HUD's authority to use up to 30 percent of funds for existing units;
. Income limits set at 80 percent of median income for the areas (rather than limits related to public
housing admission limits);
Authority to insure advances of mortgage proceeds with respect to property constructed or rehabili-
tated pursuant to a self-help program; and
. Minimum downpayment requirements increased to 3 percent of value.

Section 236 program. Insurance authority on this program is extended for 2 years only, $76 million is
authorized in fiscal *1975. HUD is expected' to approve`commitement of these additional funds where a
community has identified its special housing needs and demonstrated that such needs cannot be met through
the lower-income housing assistance program. Further amendments Include:
additional assistance for tenants who cannot pay the basic subsidized rental charge with 25 percent of
their income (i.e., rents for 20 percent of the units may be reduced to as little as the cost of utilities of the
units); '
. authority for increased subsidies to meet higher operating costs resulting from increased taxes or utility
costs;
• a requirement that at least 20 percent of funds be allocated to projects for elderly or handicapped;
. a requirement that at least 10 percent of funds be used for rehabilitation projects;
provision for reducing tenant contributions toward rent from 25 percent of income to as low as 20
percent where utilities are billed separately;
. income limits set at 80 percent of median income for area;
. removal of 10 percent project limitation on number of nonelderly single persons who may be
subsidized;
. authority for HUD to contract with State or local agencies to monitor the management of assisted
projects.
Insured advances. The measure authorizes insured advances of mortgage proceeds for projects during
construction to cover cost of building components prior to delivery to construction site.
Compensation for defects. Compensation for structural defects in existing homes is extended to cover
two-family homes. Compensation is to be made available to owners of properties located in older, declining
urban areas and which are covered by mortgages insured under section 203 or 221 during the period August

INTRODUCTION
This is East Central's first Newsletter. Its purpose is to
provide information to decision -makers at the city and county level.
We hope the Information Newsletter will be useful.
ABOUT EAST CENTRAL
East Central is a multi -county association of local governments.
At present Iowa, Johnson, Jones, and Linn Counties have joined the
East Central Association. Membership is open to the Regional Plan-
ning Commission, Board of Supervisors or each individual unit of
local government in Benton, Iowa, Johnson, Jones, Linn and Washington
Counties..
The purpose of East Central is to: provide and exchange in-
formation, serve as a forum for regional challenges, propose and
foster legislation to solve regional problems and concerns, and
to provide review of programs of regional importance.
In essence, East Central is an association of local governments
cooperating towards the identification and resolution of mutual pro-
blems and opportunities.
FLOOD INSURANCE
Several area communities have been identified as flood prone by
H.U.D. A flood hazard map will be sent to each community on the list.
Some maps have been mailed, others are still in preparation.
A community, so identified, has an opportunity to take advantage
of the Federal Flood Insurance Program. Property owners in the com-
munity will be able to obtain flood insurance only if the governing
body enters the program. Building permits and flood plain land use
controls are conditions in the program.
If a flood prone community does not enter the program by July 1,
1975, Federal grants, loans, ando—i an guarantees for buildings in the
flood area will be stopped.

Iowa will pay police authorities some of those expenses incurred
in collecting and storing abandoned cars. The police in turn pay the
individual or organizations who actually collects and stores the cars.
The State will pay $1.00 a mile for towing costs with an unoffi-
cial limit of 25 miles. The State will also pay some storage costs.
The actual amount the State will pay for storage costs is under re-
consideration presently. It should be noted that the State will pay
for abandoned cars only.
There are four basic steps to a successful program. First, an
inventory should be conducted to determine the number and location of
cars. Second, the site should be located. The site should be 35
acres and accessible by truck. The next step is to generate some
publicity. Finally the cars are collected. There are a number of
ways in which this is done depending upon the communities resources.
The car crusher takes over at this point. About 45,000 cars have
been recycled so far. OPP is ready to offer assistance in starting
a program. If you are interested contact: Peter R. Hamlin, Environ-
mental Coordinator. His phone number is Area Code 515/281-3854.

Z-7415. Council referral to
rezone the old Elks Club
property located at the
terminus of Taft Speedway
and along the Iowa River from an R1A Zone to an R3A Zone; date
filed: 7/29/74; 45 -day limitation: 9/12/74.
STAFF Prior to the annexation of
ANALYSIS: the subject tract in 1966 by
the City, certain rights
theretofore had been granted
to the Youngs, present owners of the tract, by the County. In
February of 1964, the property was rezoned from an RS Zone to
an R3A Zone to permit the remodeling of the old Elks Country
Club, purchased in May of 1964, into several apartment units.
In October of 1964, a building permit was granted to convert
the building to 18 apartment units as indicated in the letter
attached hereto.
When the subject tract was annexed to the City it was automatically
classified R1A. In July of 1967, an attempt was made to rezone
® a five acre tract near the west end of Taft Speedway from R1A to
R3B. The Planning and Zoning Commission suggested that the
petitioner, the Elks Club, "look into the possibilities of
rezoning to R3". Subsequently, in August of 1967, the Planning
and Zoning Commission recommended approval of an application sub-
mitted to rezone the subject tract and a three and one-half acre
contiguous parcel to an R3 and R3A Zone subject to the obtainment
of an easement for the continuation of Taft Speedway through
the subject tract. It was later discovered a legal description
of the property sought for rezoning was in error, and was,
therefore, never considered by the Council.
The subject tract is part of a near one -square -mile area enveloped
by the Iowa River on two sides, Interstate 80 on the north and
Dubuque Street on the east. The area is for the most part
unserviceable by sanitary sewer and for that reason virtually
undeveloped with the exception of an existing mobile home
park, an apartment complex, and a golf course.
Special consideration to the future land use of the area was
given in the development of the Preliminary Land Use Plan adopted
by the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission on May 16,
1973. Because of the area's relatively remote location in
terms of transportation access and utilities, low density
residential development (three units or less per acre) in the
vicinity of the Elk's Club golf course north to Interstate 80
and southwest to the end of the river peninsula is indicated.
-2 -
Future land however,
use plans, should not be made entirely on
the basis of streets and utilities without consideration for
various other planning elements. Because of the area's
relatively remote location due to the natural and artificial
boundaries which isolate it, the area should be planned and developed
as a complete neighborhood defined by the Urban Land Institute as
"the geographic area within which residents may all share common
services and facilities required in the vicinity of their
dwellings".
An important inevitable need within the neighborhood will be
an elementary school properly located to conveniently serve
an expected child population efficiently. For this reason,
the density of development and types of housing, which will
have an effect on the total child population, must be pre-
determined before an adequate land use plan of the neighborhood
can be developed. The street access and utilities must then be
programmed to serve the expected total number of residences
adjusted to adequately support the elementary school.
While it would appear that the City has an obligation to rezone
the subject tract to make conforming the use of the property
which was previously granted by due process, the staff would not
suggest rezoning the property to permit a higher density until
after a comprehensive study for development of the area has
been completed. The R3 Zone,
which would permit a total of
21 units on the subject tract, would appear to be the best
solution.
As was previously indicated, access will become a major consider-
ation in the future development of the area. Presently, Foster
Road and Taft Speedway provide the only access into the area.
Some thought has been given to extending Foster Road westerly
across the Iowa River to connect with Fifth Avenue in Coralville
or southerly across the Iowa River to connect with Rocky Shore
Drive. Foster Road should nevertheless be planned and designed
as a major access route to serve a major portion of the area.
The significance of Taft Speedway as a part of the future
street network is uncertain and may depend on its possible
extension through the subject tract. If extended, the roadbed
should be constructed above the flood plain to avoid washout
from flood water which, within the vicinity of the subject
tract, is located along very rugged topography. For this
reason, staff members are not in complete agreement as to
whether its cost of construction will be offset by its service-
ability. To make the extension of Taft Speedway possible,
should it be considered desirable or necessary, an easement should
be secured.

• Old Elks Country Club Building on.Taft Speedway.
Over 10 years ago we purchased one and one -hall acres of
bind, then in the county, together with a very large building.
Our offer to buy thIF property was made subject to its being zoned
for apartments. This apartment zoning was granted by Johnson County,
there were no protests from any concerned adjacent property owners,
a building permit Has issued by the county,
and ;cork was started on the remodeling of the building into 18
apartments.
ale spent a great deal of money preparing this building for
these apartments. They are all roughed in, all of the plumbing
cork is done, and the large boiler for heating, Plus all of the heat
runs and radiators are all installed.
This building is approximately 50x100 feet, two stories, and
® contains approximately 10,000 square feet. It formerly
,l housed me _
of the party spots of the area and at the time of the county's
rezoning it to -R3A for apartments the.nelghbors were quite happy
and called it an improvement over previous uses.
We had proper legal zoning for these apartments, we acted in
good faith in all of the work done, we have spent a considerable
allount of money on all of the remodeling, the building is too large
for :Inything•bust apartments, and we ask for retention of our zoning
of R3A and permission to finish the work remaini.n� to be done.

LAME. CODE JIQJ
This is to protest on behalf of the Youngs of the
re -zoning of their property, which is the Old Elks
Country Club building, to a RlA family zone. As the
Council undoubtedly knows, this building is being used
for multi -family purposes and the building is of such
a nature that more units are possible. The building
is somewhat isolated from other family dwellings, and
there appears no current reason why this property should
be turned into a non -conforming use.
When the building was originally purchased by the
Youngs from the Elks Club, the Johnson County Board of
Supervisors did zone the property for apartment units,
and the Youngs proceeded on the assumption that their
investment would be protected. It would appear to be
completely unfair to endanger the Young's investment by
making this a non -conforming multi -family structure in
an RlA district.
Under the circumstances, we request that the Council
remove the Young's property from the current re -zoning
ordinance, and that the property be zoned R3A.
Very truly yours,

STAFF REPORT

September 12, 1974
Commission
Z-7419. Consideration of a
Council referral to rezone a
tract of land, commonly
referred to as the Streb-
property, located south of the CRI&P
Iowa River and east of Riverside Drive
a PC Planned Commercial Zone; Council
STAFF On November 14, 1973, an
ANALYSIS: application was submitted
by Alvin F. Streb and National
By -Products, Inc. to rezone
the subject tract from an R1A Zone to an Ml Zone. The staff
had indicated in a Staff Report dated December 13, 1973 that
because of the predominance of industrial and heavy commercial
uses in the area, the subject tract was more conducive to the
development of industrial uses. However, since zoning plays
an important part in preserving and stabilizing property values,
it was suggested that some means of protection be afforded to
the mobile home park immediately to the south.
® The PC Zone is intended to provide for the orderly development
of a shopping center. Uses permitted include those set forth in
the C1 Zone, excluding residential uses, and theaters, eating
establishments, and the sale of retail goods and products.
Before the rezoning of any tract to a Planned Commercial Zone,
a report concerning the economic feasibility of a PC Zone at
the location sought, the effect of a PC Zone on the surrounding
property, and impact of traffic on the surrounding streets must
be submitted.
It is not conceivable that a shopping center or commercial uses
in general would locate on the subject tract. The most important
considerations in the location of a shopping center are access
from major streets and a trade area within close proximity to
adequately support the businesses -- both lacking in the vicinity
of the subject tract.
From a planning standpoint, the location of commercial and
industrial areas must be carefully preconceived for the most
orderly development of the community. The South U.S. Highway
218 and Riverside Drive corridor is characterized as an
industrial area because of the predominance of industrial uses,
and unrelated uses, therefore, should be discouraged.
To resolve the dilemma confronting the City, the staff would
suggest that the following steps be taken:
Ll
0
1. An ordinance be adopted instituting a RMH - Residential
Mobile Home Park Zone which would eliminate the provision that
mobile home parks be permitted only in a commercial zone. As
has been previously stated, mobile homes are residential uses
and should not be categorized as commercial uses. The staff
is presently developing a mobile home park zone which will be
completed by the end of September, 1974.
2. A subsequent ordinance be instituted which would include
provisions for effectively protecting any residential use in
a residential zone from the adverse effects of commercial and
industrial activity. Such provisions might include not only
a requirement for the installation of screening but also
restrictions in the location of parking, storage, and any other
industrial or commercial activity within a certain distance of
abutting residential zones. Since there are many areas of the
City where industrial uses have been located immediately adjacent
to residential development, the City may wish to consider making
such requirements retroactive.
3. The Zoning Code be amended to restrict the Ml Zone to only
industrial and similar uses and prohibit uses which might be
of conflict. Presently, the M1 Zone permits any use excluding
M2 uses, resulting in the possibility of industrial and
residential uses or other highly incompatible uses being located
within close proximity of each other.
4. The subject tract be rezoned to an M1 Zone.
The staff would not suggest rezoning the subject tract until
the above steps one through three have been accomplished.
STAFF
RECOMMENDATION:
It is the staff's recommen-
dation that the subject tract
not be rezoned to a PC Zone.

Re: Streb By -Products Rezoning Options
Mayor and Council Members:
At ,your request I am reporting to you on the procedural options
available to the City Council in connection with the above matter. The
property is now zoned R -1-A and you will recall that Planning and Zoning
recommended an amendment to the zoning ordinance zoning the property
M-1. You have requested information as to what procedures could be
f•:)l towed to adopt an alternate zoning amendment.
The applicable statutes are as follows. Section 414. 5 of the 1973
Code of Iowa provides that all changes and amendments in a zoning
ordinance must meet the provisions of Section 414. 4 relative to public
hearings and official notice. Section 414.4 provides that no zoning regu-
:ation 1'... shall become effective until after a public hearing in relation
thereto, at which parties in interest and citizens shall have an opportunity
to he heard. At least fifteen days notice of the time and place of such
hearing shall be published in the paper of general circulation in such city
or town. " That section also provides that the city council of a city shall
provide for the manner in which zoning ordinances may from time to time
he amended. The Iowa City zoning ordinance contains specific provisions
with respect to its amendment. Section 8. 10. 32(A) provides in part that
''any proposed amendment, supplement, change, modification or repeat
shall first he submitted to the Commission for its recommendations and
report. " Section 8. 10. 32(B) provides that if the Commission recommends
against such proposed amendment or change, such amendment or change
shall not become effective except by a favorable vote of 3/4 of the members
of the Council.
In light of the above, it seems to me that the following procedural
statements can be made:
11
11
IIonorable Mayor and
City Council of Iowa City - 2 - August 7, 1974
0 J W T -I : vb
1. The Council will need to hold a public hearing after
published notice as required in Section 414. 4 of the
State Code on the specific amendment to the zoning
code that it proposes to adopt. For example, if Council
wishes to adopt a C-1 zone, a specific public hearing on
that proposed amendment should be lield. I see no
reason why the public hearing and the published notice
could not combine hearing on two or more specific
proposed amendments. For example;' one public
hearing could be held, in my opinion, which would con-
sider both the C-1 and the PC zoning categories. The
notice that would be published should specifically
mention both categories in that event.
2. Planning and Zoning must be asked to consider and
recommend for or against the specific amendment that
eventually is adopted. I understand from Dick Wollmers-
hauser that although Planning and Zoning did specifically
consider the C-1 zone and rejected it, no discussion was
had of the PC zone. Therefore if the Council wishes to
adopt a PC zone or to consider a PC zone, it should ask
Planning and Zoning to consider that proposed amend-
ment and report back. If P. and Z. recommends against
a specific zone, it would require four affirmative votes
on the Council to adopt the amendment.
3. Since P. and Z. has already considered the staff
recommendation for a C-1 zone and has rejected the
recommendation for that zone, Council could go ahead
and set public hearing before it on the C- 1 category and
following hearing adopt the C-1 category by four affirma-
tive votes, if Council chose. The four votes would be
required because Planning and Zoninf; has, in effect,
recommended against the C-1 zone.
Respectfully.submi�ted,
Hayek

less. In the second year, the grant will be the greatest of 2/3
of the formula amount, the hold harmless amount or the grant in
year 1.
C. Hold -Harmless - this is an automotic entitlement
granted to cities with ongoing urban renewal pro-
grams to insure a smooth transition from the cat-
egorical grant to the block grant programs. The
amount is determined by adding together the average
of commitments for grants for urban renewal, open
space, water and sewer, model cities, neighborhood
development program, made between July 1, 1967 and
June 30, 1972. The hold -harmless grant will be
continuous for 3 years, then phased down by thirds
for the next 3 years. Cities will receive the greater
of the formula amount or the hold -harmless amount,
but not both.
I. Inlroductinn
The fund;imoni.ol purpose of the Iowa Gity Urban Uhsc.rvoLory will
be to explore the question of how cities and universities can actively
cooperate to address the mutual needs of both the community at large and
the university as an important part of that community. We are fully cognizant
of our role in this effort as partners with other cities and universities in a
larger demonstration program coordinated by the National League of Cities.
We will draw on past urban observatory efforts as much as possible. We
envision the Urban Observatory Program as addressing those needs in three
specific steps.
The first goal of the program will be to enhance active cooperation
and mutual understanding among the City of Iowa City, the University of
Iowa, and the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission. The first
critical step is to create viable institutional bridges between local government
and the university. .Iowa City is fortunate to the extent that some such
linkages already exist and have a long tradition of spirited cooperation.
There is coordination already in the use of transportation and recreational
facilities. Institutional arrangements for interchange of views already exist.
We are eager to improve upon those linkages and see this specific program
as ;n excellent opportunity for this purpose. The Urban Observatory will
provide a new and enlarged capacity for linkage between local government
and the university's research capabilities. In particular, we want to explore
ways of providing local government with data and research support for defining
versity resources can be placed at the disposal of local government for
understanding and solving community problems. The observatory will be
a center of communal efforts to rationally and systematically explore the
problems and prospects of our city. Many of these problems cannot be
adequately addressed without federal funding.
The second goal of the program will be to advance the capabilities
of both local government (at the city and county level) and the university
to define, analyze, and solve community problems. The urban university
really has two major functions. It is,of course, a institution for research
and teaching.
But it is also
a community institution
with
impact upon and
obligation to
its community.
The Urban Observatory
will
enhance both roles
of the university.
The university
should
perform an
innovative
or exploratory
function for local
government. In
doing
so, it will
act so as to
increase
effectively the management and performance capabilities of local government.
At the same time, the location of basic research in the university itself is
intended to ensure that the quality of policy and problem oriented research
will be such as to contribute to the general body of knowledge in urban
affairs. By doing so, the university will enhance its own research capabilities
in urban affairs.
The third goal of the program will be to use the new institutional
bridges and the enhanced capabilities of both local government and the uni-
versity to define and seek solutions to present and potential problems in city
M
government, community life, and the university as these problems interface.
The proposed organization and proposed research work program have been
consciously shaped to advance this particular goal in a systematic fashion.
The people of Iowa have a long tradition of community -university
cooperation in public affairs. The search for new and innovative solutions
to Iowa City's urban problems will be patterned in part on "Iowa 2000," an
ongoing statewide discussion of the perceived needs and hopes of the people
of Iowa as they move towards the year 2000. Governor Robert Ray asked
President Willard Boyd of the University of Iowa to direct and organize this
statewide examination of Iowa's problems, needs, and future. It must always
be kept in mind that it is not enough to define and solve today's urban problems.
We must as well anticipate the problems of the future. Continuing and active
citizen participation is crucial to this effort. When civic officials and
academic researchers are out of touch with the aspirations of the citizens,
neither funds nor talents are decently utilized. Cognizant of the fact that
hard-pressed public funds must be expended only on the enrichment of our
common life, we will strive to embody this ideal in all our activities.
II. Proposed Organization
The Iowa City Urban Observatory will be organized to encourage and
enhance the maximum utilization of the resources of all participating institutions
and interested citizens. An ongoing self-evaluation will insure to the maximum
extent possible that the primary objectives of the observatory program are
being met. We believe that our aims of civic enrichment, government-
university education in both the analytical and the practical aspects of urban
:affairs, and government -university education on concrete community problems,
will best be served by the organization set out in this section of the proposal.
A. The Iowa City Urban Observatory will be named "The Iowa City Research
Center. "
B. The University of Iowa will serve as the legal contracting agent on behalf
of the City of Iowa City, the University of Iowa, and the Johnson County
Regional Planning Commission. The Institute of Urban and Regional
Research, is an existing entity within the University having experience
in researching urban and regional problems, many of which are of local
concern. The proposed Iowa City Research Center will be within the
Institute and thereby build on prior research relationships . In addition,
the University's Institute of Public Affairs and the Iowa Community
Research Center provide additional strength in research and public
service to local government.
C. The fiscal agent for the "Iowa City Research Center" will be the Uni-
versity's Business Office.
D. The Urban Observatory Policy Board will be named "The Policy Board
of the Iowa City Research Center."
1. The Policy Board will consist of eight members, three from the
City of Iowa City, three from the University of Iowa, and two
from the Johnson County Regional Planning Commission.
2. The members of the Policy Board will be as follows:
City Manager
Council Member
Planning Director
Executive Director
Commission Member
Director
Director
Dean for Advanced Studies
Chairman, Graduate Program
City of Iowa City
City of Iowa City
City of Iowa City
Johnson County Regional
Planning Commission
Johnson County Regional
Planning Commission
Institute of Urban & Regional
Research
Institute of Public Affairs,
University of Iowa
Graduate College, University
of Iowa
Urban and Regional Planning,
University of Iowa
3. The Policy Board will advise all activities of the Iowa City Research
Center, including review of research projects not specified in this
proposal, budget, accountability to the National League of Cities
and the federal funding agency, and planning for continuance of the
joint endeavor after the termination of the three year contract period.
E. The Urban Observatory Administrative Staff will function as the coordir='ing
team for the various research projects of the Policy Board. The admini-
strative staff will be headed by a full-time project director who will
directly report to the Institute of Urban and Regional Research. The
project director will form a technical advisory or project committee, which
will- consist of
the heads of each university research project and a conterpart flaison
officer from each local government agency or university office affected
or involved.

The proposed research work program detailed below has been con-
sciously designed to enhance city -university recognition of present and
potential problems in city government, community life, and the university
as these problems interface. We have focused on two basic considerations
in designing a systematic and coordinated research work program. The
first consideration is to identify and design for the first year of the program
a set of important community problems that require analysis and will at the
same time form a solid data and research support foundation for further
studies in the second and third years. The second consideration is to use
the first year of the program to identify additional community problems to
be studied in the succeeding years. Where is Iowa City going? What future
problems must we anticipate? How can we best enhance the capability of
local government and the university to understand and handle those problems ?
The central focus of the Urban Observatory from the very start will
be on an integrated approach for evaluating the needs and preferences of
citizens for public services of various sorts, and the delivery or provision
of those services by local government. The demand for and supply of public
services — how to estimate demand, how to cost, how to design and evaluate
delivery — will be our central consideration. Both current and future provision
needs will be studied in depth. What kinds of research support can the uni-
versity provide to local government in this area? While researching immediate
problems, trends will be established and analyzed to identify future problems
that citizens are not now cognizant of, and to develop innovative means
or <loating with those problems.
The Urban Observatory will address itself in the first year to problems
that have already been identified as of great importance. We have identified,
in cooperation with city and county government, three specific research
projects for the first year that will have precisely this dual importance.
These three projects are intended to set the agenda for the identification
and analysis of the research projects for the second and third years.
The first basic project will be to review past and current analyses
of population growth, composition, and spatial distribution for the Iowa
City metropolitan region in conjunction to provide a basis for an analysis of
the housing market. To this study will be joined analyses of the economic
base of the community, focusing on the economic role of the university
vis-a-vis other economic activities and or the economic future of the
metropolitan region. We will investigate the implications for zoning and
subdivision regulation, and for the provision of public services by the city
and the county. Such a project is a necessary preliminary for estimating
demand for housing and public services, and for designing, casting, and
evaluating service delivery. A critical problem in this city is the impact
of the university's student and faculty population on the housing market and
the provision of public services. Hence, models of population growth,
composition, and distribution and the housing market must be developed, as
well as analytical tools for evaluating zoning and provision of public services.

POpulaLion growth, composition, and distribution have profound implications
Inr the houshig market, zoning and subdivision regulation, urhan-rural land
conversion at the city fringe, and provision of public services. The Iowa
City Research Center will attempt to synthesize a considerable amount of
prior work in this area by the City and by the Johnson County Regional
Planning Commission in order to identify areas where specific university
research can be focused.
Closely related to this first research project is the immediate need
for investigating the often overlapping provision of facilities for recreational
and leisure activities, transportation, health care, police and fire protection,
and other social services by the city government and the University. The
University is really a very substantial part of the community's population.
It provides for student and faculty the kinds of services provided for the
community by the city. In several cases, facility use is overlapping. We
want to estimate such overlap and determine the equity of distribution for
such services. Costs and benefits must be closely studied,not only to
establish equity but also to plan future facilities for these activitiPc. What
coordination can bc: achieved, with consequent reduction in service costs
and/or improvement in services.
Intergovernmental relations (city, county, and state) , as well as city -
university relations, must be studied for an assessment of public services
and other community needs. The University is legally an agent of the State
of Iowa. The county also supplies various public services and deals with
the urban problems of this smaller metropolitan area. There is, in addition,
ct,nsideroble pressure for urban -rural land conversion at the urban fringe
where city and county really meet. At the same time, of course, the city,
the county, and the University will conduct a coordinated investigation
into how to enhance the effectiveness of the management and implementation
of their basic urban planning functions.

Polmlal.ion, Ilousing Market, rconomic 13;ise, and Provision
of Public Services in Iowa City"
1 . The problem to be studied in this research project is how
to determine and analyze the underlying trends which most
strongly affect the nature of urban problems in the Iowa City
metropolitan region. The underlying trends concern most
fundamentally the growth, composition, and spatial distri-
bution of population in the region, and the economic base
and future of the region. A large proportion of the commu-
nity's population consists of students, faculty, and univer-
sity staff. At the same time, however, Iowa City is a growing
industrial and commercial center. These trends have impor-
tant implications for the housing market and the provision of
public services (including location of public facilities).
What zoning and subdivision policies should local govern-
ment follow? What will happen to the provision of public
services and the location of public facilities? How can we
cost, design, and evaluate service delivery? What are the
probable effects on urban -rural land conversion at the city
fringe where city and county really meet? The purpose of
handling these particular questions is to develop the data
and research support necessary for examining specific public

services in detail in the second and third years of the con-
tract (fire and police protection, transportation, social ser-
vices, health care, recreational and leisure facilities, li-
braries, etc.).
This research project is clearly designed to address this
problem explicitly. In doing so, it will be of direct bene-
fit to the city, the metropolitan area, and the university.
We intend to study and synthesize prior studies for the city
and the metropolitan area the growth, composition, and spa-
tial distribution of population; the economic base and its
future trends; the housing market; zoning and subdivision
regulations; the costing, design, and evaluation of public
services in relationship to the demand for such services;
and the location of public facilities. All these issues
affect the city, the county, and the university at their inter-
faces. The research project would clearly enhance the
research capability of local government and the university
to define and analyze these kinds of issues. The entire
project is designed as a foundation for the study of the pro-
vision of specific public services, as outlined -ibove, in the
second and third years.
Major research tasks to be performed
a. Review and analysis of the economic base and future of
the region.
b. Review and analysis of the growth, composition, and
spatial distribution of population in the region.
c. Impact of population growth, composition, and spatial
distribution on the housing market.
d. Implications of housing market impact for zoning and
subdivision regulation, and for urban -rural land conver-
sion at the city's fringe which regulate in turn popula-
tion distribution.
e. Implications of local policies governing population dis-
tribution, demand for public services, and costs of
service delivery on program design and evaluation as
well as on location of public facilities.

IV. B. Research Project 2 = "Sub -Area Housing Preference Study"
Iowa City is confronted simultaneously with a general housing
shortage and with local demands for zoning change which would have
the effect of reducing (or stablilizing) sub -area population densities.
In some respects the conflict is a classic one in local government: a
clash between general conceptions of a city-wide public interest and
the "interests" of residents in the City's several neighborhoods. What
is proposed is a study which probes the several dimensions of housing
preferences of residents in Iowa City "neighborhoods" in terms of (1)
neighborhood consensus-dissensus and their social, economic, and
organizational correlates and areal manifestations, (2) their stability
over time, and (3) the extent to which local residents disregard the
possible social and private costs of their preferences, if enacted into
IV.
zoning change, on other residents in the neighborhoos (both home-
own(,rs and renters) with divergent preferences and on other city
residents. Strategies for resolving intra- and inter -neighborhood
conflicts stemming from housing preference heterogeneity will be
proposed and, with City approval, pilot -tested.
C. Research Proiect 3: Intergovernmental Relations
If an urban observatory is to be useful, both to the city under
observation and the observing university, problems studies must be
both real and subject to amelioration. One problem area bound to be
important through this decade and the next is intergovernmental rela-
tions. It is hereby proposed that the Iowa City/University of Iowa
Urban Observatory proposal include a section on intergovernmental
relations.
The aim would
be to
hlep the city
be effective in
a changing
world. The
city's reward
would
be increased
effectiveness,
the uni-
versity's an opportunity to apply the abstractions of the political
economy and political organization of space literature to concrete
situations. Iowa City is, after all, one government among many. The
city's concerns transcend the limits of municipal power, both terri-
torially and functionally. For Iowa City, boundary problems, transfer -
once of funds among governments, and joint programs are all cogent
areas of concern in the realm of intergovernmental relations. The focus
would be on Iowa City and its relations with other governments, not a
focus on regional activity.
LJ
Many of Iowa City's problems, both for the present ,and the future,
are complicated by the territorial city limits. The functional require-
ments of a service may dictate consideration of areas beyond the city's
domain. Transportation is an excellent example of this: for buses,
roads, and traffic control. Iowa City must look beyond its own city
limits if the city hopes to cope. Iowa City's bus service extends to
University Heights and is linked with the Coralville and University of
Iowa buses. This requires jurisdictional coordination that would be
necessary under unified transportation control. Iowa City must be con-
cerned with both the effectiveness of such a service and the costs and
benefits accruing to Iowa City residents under such a structure. The
same is true of roads, whether one crossing municipal boundaries, e.g.
Melrose Avenue passing through University Heights, or one tied to state
and federal planning, e.g. Interstate 80. Likewise for traffic control, as
both Highway 6 and Melrose Avenue attest.
Drainage is another problem area complicated by boundary problems.
Obviously the city has little control over the flow of the Iowa River, but
it does have some control over the creeks that drain the city -- some
control rather than full control because state and federal governments
impose restrictions and because nature does not always cooperate. The
point is that the decisions of the city are tied to the decisions of other
units of government whether a neighbor or one up the administrative
hierarchy.
U
Boundaries are also a concern to Iowa City with regard to the
expansion of development. Among other things, urban development
i:: tied Lo Lh(! exLension of water and sewerage services. Where
should the city allow water and sewer lines? How much develop-
ment should there be, and of what kinds? And where? How does
fringe development affect redevelopment? In „ period likely to
have little net growth, all of these are important questions for Iowa
City, and all of them concern what is happening beyond the limits
as well as in them.
Boundaries, of course, are also of concern in the realm of con-
solidation and annexation. For various possible proposals, what
would be the calculus of costs and benefits to Iowa City, as well
as those in the areas under consideration? Would expansion of the
city limits alter the accessibility Iowa City residents have to their
city officials ?
All of these boundaries questions are important and will remain
important for Iowa City. An urban observatory, feeling the pulse and
complementing the city's own analysis, would make it easier for the
city to make knowledgeable, rational decisions in the interests of its
citizens.
TRANSPER OI' FUNDS, JOINT PROGRAMS
Fiscal questions and the operation of programs both tie Iowa City
to several other units of governments. The effective provision of ser-
vices requires keeping on top of changes in financing and providing
programs. Monitoring changes in citizen demands for services is
also necessary, of course. As new or altered state and federal pro-
grams come on line, how will Iowa City be affected? An urban
observatory could assist the city in its efforts to know its legal and
jurisdictional environment. What are the gains and losses from coop-
eration with the school district or the universx',y on re ..nation, trans-
portation, social services? What is the impact on Iowa City of Area
X programs, e.g. SEATS or Kirkwood Community College? An urban
observatory could also help Iowa City gather data to present to state
and federal officials so that the city may improve the impact of state
federal programs on the city. Urban Mass Transit and school finan-
cing measures come to mind.
OPERATION
This slice of an urban observatory would be fairly easy to operate.
The city would have to maintain files, keep a constant literature search,
especially of government documents, and continually define areas of
concern. The university, under the 'Institute for Urban and Regional
Research would: also search the pertinent literature to keep up to date
field check such changes as development decisions and use of facili-
ties; contribute to the city's fiscal analysis; and monitor government
decisions affecting the city, as well as those by the city. Thus the
urban observatory would facilitate effective municipal governance in
Iowa City. It would also bring the involved members of the university
out of the ivory tower, thus benefiting both town and gown.
An urban observatory program in the area of intergovernmental
relations would help the city make timely decisions -- timely because
the city sould obtain information more quickly, and the information
would be of a higher calibre. With better information, the city
could also take a look at longer time frames, enabling the city to con-
sider the social cost side-effects of policies Ln addition to the short
term costs.
In the 1st year of operation, the Urban Observatory should establish
a working group, staffed by the observatory, within JCRPC, to analyze
intergovernmental problems of a metropolitan nature. That working
group would identify the specific functions most in need of study. Work
could begin immediately on an analysis of the interplay between develop-
ment and redevelopment. Given the projected modest population and
economic growth anticipated over the next few years, development in
one area will reduce the likelihood of development in another. Given
the levels of development likely and the impact of development on both
the tax base of a municipality and the costs of providing services (given
the quality, type, and location of development) , the importance of
development and the intergovernmental nature of development control
become obvious.
The observatory would monitor on-going development in terms of
developers' decisions, changing land values, the fiscal consequences
of development decisions, and the roles of local governments in develop-
ment decisions. The latter point would include extension of water and
sewer lines, platting, preparation of sites, etc. The abandonment
and deterioration of buildings would also be analyzed. This analysis
would document the land economics of abandonment and deterioration:
eminent domain, redevelopment overhead (land assembly), and for-
feiture of capital improvements e.g. (water and sewer lines). The
focus would be the externalities involved ana opportunity costs of
development and redevelopment decisions in the Iowa City area.

Local
match
for the first
year
of operation consists of
contributed
staff time
to the
functioning
of the
Urban Observatory and
funds for
partial support of the Observatory's director. The University estimates
20% of three faculty for the academic year wirr b'e spent on Observatory
research projects. Similarly, the City and Johnson County Regional Plan-
ning Commission will assign a staff person each for research liaison and
participation in research. Finally, the City will contribute $6,900 to
share in the support of the Director.
1 . The Second Year
The City will assume an additional $4,650 of the Director's
salary during the second year. With frings and indirect costs, this
means an $8, 000 contribution from the City, which with the prior local
match continued will exceed the $33,000 required.
2. The Third Year
The University will contribute a one-half time research assistant
at $2, 600 which with fringe and indirect costs means a $4, 500 contribu-
tion. One-half research assistant will be removed from the budget and
will be made up with additional faculty participation. The City will
increase its participation in the support of the Director by $4, 650„again
meaning an $8, 000 cash contribution. The total effect is a shift of
$17,000 from HUD funds to local match.
