An open letter to the Johnson County Board of Supervisors:
An immediate criticism of the draft environmental impact statement for
Freeway ,518 is that in writing its own statement, the Iowa Highway
Commission violates the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969.
Precedent for this was recently established when the B.S. Supreme
Court,. refused to review the Greene County (New York) Planning Board
case. Because of this, the -Federal Power'. Commission must now make,
an environmental review of projects proposed to it, rather.than del-
egating that function to the sponsors of projects.
In:addition, the statemarit is not only inadequate and misleading,
but it is intended as'a self-serving document. In major ,areas, it
does not substantially differ from the previous statement. Further,
assertions made about auto emissions are erroneous, the location of
the historical Indian Lookout alleged by the Commission is wrong
and there is,no consideration of highway ineffiency',and its relation-
ship to the energy crisis.
Citizens for Environmental Action is currently documenting these
charges in a detailed review. We respectfully request the Board to
defer action in this matter until our critique can be made a part
of the Board's own rovien.

STAFF PRESENT: Wollmershauser, Lambert, Child
Chairman Madsen called the meeting to order and asked if there
were any corrections or additions to the minutes of the January
11,' 1973, meeting.' It was moved by Mr. Galiher, seconded by
Dr.Ogesen, to 'approve the minutes as written. The motion
carried unanimously.
The first ,item of business was the Zoning Item D.1. which reads
as follows:
C-7301. Proposed change to Zoning Code 8.10.16C concerning bulk
storage of liquid propane.
Mr. Galiher moved, seconded by Mrs. Davidsen, to recommend to the
city Council adoption of'the'',amendment:to Section 8.10.16C of.
the Zoningr"Code. The motion carried unanimously. The Commissioners ?
indicated that the amendment would -meet the national fire protection
standards' and this was the basis on which they -made their recommen-
dation. A copy of the proposed amendment is attached.
Item D.2. 'Z-7222. Rezoning request of Capitol Propane Gas
Company for rezoning of Parcel in Industrial Park (vic.-N.E. of
cul de sac of Industrial Pk. Rd.) from Ml to M2. 45 -day limitation:
February 12, 1973.
Mr. Henry commented that it was his understanding if the area
were rezoned M2 and the anticipated business was later removed,
the City would still have considerable control over whatever
might be located in that area because, Zoning
as indicated in the
Code, a long list of performance criteria would have to'be met.
It was Chairman Madsen's opinion that as long as the performance
criteria were 'met, all 'M2 authorized uses would have to'be
allowed. Mr. Wollmershauser,clarified the issue by stating
that.certain.uses are allowed (according to Section D. of the
M2 Zone Use Regulations) but only after a study has been made by
the Fire Department and the Planning & Zoning Commission who '
then, makes a recommendation to'the City Council. The City Council
may then either approve or deny the request. In addition,
performance,standards ,of
the code would, have to be met for any
proposed M2 use. Mrs'. Davidsen questioned who the enforcement
agent would be. Mr. Wollmershauser indicated that this would
be the responsibility of the Building Official.
Mr. Henry noted that the Staff recommended approval of the
rezoning request but the rationale or justification given seemed
to be of the negative kind. He questioned whether more could be
a
I
-Z- •
said on behalf of the recommendation to approve the request.
Mr. Lambert explained that the M2 zone would be basically
harmonious with those uses permitted is Ml, that it would
not conflict with the neighboring residential property, the
use would not downgrade the area and, therefore, would not
decrease the property value. These, Mr'.'Lambert stated,
were positive reasons in favor of the rezoning.
Chairman Madsen stated that rezoning has to be based on,the
rezoning, rather than on the proposed use. Mrs. Davidsen
" commented that she felt there were adequate reasons for rezoning
the parcel to M2, but not just on the basis that Capitol Propane
is going, to be there. S,Le'felt the industrial use along the
railroad', with the buffering between the zones, would be a good
place for M2 zoning. Mr. Galiher asked if ,there was more land
along the railroad that would be available for M2.Mrs'. Davidsen
said this was her understanding;,,otherwise, the Commission could
possibly be accused of 'spot zoning.
After_ further_dis_cussion; Mr. Galiherlfmoved, seconded by'Mrs.
Davidsen, to recommend approval of the rezoning request of_-
Capitol Propane Gas Company for rezoning of a Parcel in:
_Industrial Park from Ml-to:M2,'subject to the adoption of the
_pToppsed change in tie zoning or.i.nance concerning bulk 'storage
o_fliquid propane, Section 8.10.16C of the Zoning Code. The
motion carried,' 4-1, with 'Chairman Madsen voting no.
Z-7221. Additional Comments concerning PAD for Court Crest, Inc.
rezoning request. 45-,day'' limitation: January 25, 1973:
Mr. Larry Waters, Vice'President of Court Crest, Inc.; spoke in
favor of the rezoning ,and outlined the following reasons why he
felt a favorable recommendation' should be forthcoming':
1.Fraternal use and church use are, closely related --'both
serve a social function and, in many cases, a religious
function.
2. Mr. Seydel, Housing Coordinator,' had indicated that the west
portion of the Court Crest' property, presently` zoned R2,
would not be acceptable as a site. for Housing for the Elderly.
Mr. Waters commented that, in other words,'a higher density
than for which they are asking is not acceptable.
3. The property, meets the ecological and environmental require-
ments, there would be no change in terrain or exterior
appearance, the property does enter onto arterial streets
so traffic would not be a problem, Court Crest has buffered
the east 85 feet of Parcel,Rl, which will remain RIB, so
the neighbors would be protected.
4.' Mr. Waters concluded that you can expect a club to take on
the characteristics of the neighborhood in which it exists,
and, if it doesn't, it won't succeed.
-3 -
Chairman Madsen stated that, in his opinion, clubs should not
be permitted in an Rl, R2, or R3 zone
Mrs. Davidsen expressed the opinion that she could not see her
function as a Commissioner to rezone with the idea of allowing
a specific use and doesnot feel an R2 zone is the best over-
all use for this land. She indicated she would vote against
this requestbut would to add a proposal that clubs,
churches,' housing sites for the elderly, etc. be considered.as
special uses. It was her feeling that some problems that exist
in Iowa City might be more easily solved with strict adherence
to a special use category.
Mr. Henry supported Mrs. Davidsen's proposal to consider special
uses. He indicated he would like to see more flexibility in the
zoning code and does not feel that increased density is necessarily
to be avoided.
Dr. Ogesen indicated that he personally felt fraternal organi-
zations are inappropriate in residential zones but, since it is
written this way in the',ordinance and we are currently operating
under this ordinance, the importance.in deciding how to vote
on this is what is the best land use. He noted that the Staff F
feltthebest land use was single family residences. He stated
that he couldn't completely agree with this position because the
property is so well served by streets. The area is near to'.
schools (families',with younger.children often tend to live in
duplex -type dwellings) and they can also be well served by
shopping centers'. The church building, which is presently
sitting in the middle of the property and is too valuable.to
be destroyed,; would probably blend in better with duplex -type
units than single family type homes. For these reasons, Dr.
Ogesen felt R2 would be an appropriate land use.
Mr. Galiher moved, seconded by Dr. Ogesen, to ,recommend approval
_of the rezoning request of Court Crest, Inc. ,from R1B to R2
of a portion of the former property of St. Mark'a Methodist
Church. 'The motion was denied, 3-2. Dr. Ogesen and -Mr. Galiher

Mrs. Davidsen moved, seconded by Mr. Henry, that the Staff

with performance standards. The motion carried unanimously
E.I. Selection of a P'& z Commission representative on the
Riverfront Commission.
Mr: Galiher moved, seconded by Mrs. Davidsen, to recommend to
the City Council that Mr. Henry be appointed as representative
to the Riverfront Commission effective July 1, 1973, with the
stipulation that Chairman Madsen would serve in the interim.

January 16,, 1973
Letter to the Iowa City City Council
The Johnson County Regional Planning. Commission is nearing the
completion of a Regional Housing Stud), which has been conducted
by its staff 'under the guidance of the Citizens' Advisory'Committee(CACH
Two of the basic goals that, have informally guided the study have
improve the physical condition of the local housing supply
and,i ooe'nable the _lowering of costs to the housing consumer. Un£ort-
inately,' these two goals are most often in direct conflict --the
cost of housing improvements is 'almost inevitably born by'the, housing
consumer. However, ,there are some instances in which both goals
can be`met, or at least in which the achievement of one ',goal does not
I preclude the
satisfaction of the other.
In a joint meeting of the'CACH and the Housing Committee on .
December 11, 1972, an example of such a'cost-saving housing improve-
ment was the subject of extensive discussion and a formal resolu
tion. It was resolved, that the jointicommittees recommend to the.
City of Iowa City that its existing construction codes be revised'
in order to permit the utilization of'Romex wiring in all'residen'-
tial construction. It was felt by the committee members that this
is but one of the innovations 'in constructiontechnology which
promise potential cost savings to the builder and,which could be
passed on to the housing', consumer.
In subsequent discussions between members of the staffs of the
Regional Planning Commission and the City of Iowa City, it was
learned that the city-'is',awaiting the completion of the Uniform
state Building Code by the Division of Municipal Affairs of the !-
Office for Planning and Programming. Once this package of construc-
tion codes is completed, it, is understood that Iowa City, and the
other Iowa municipalities, will review the optional portions of
this'Code for possible adoption at the local level.' The 'target
(late for the completion of the Uniform State Building Code is
February 1, 1973.
It was also learned that the city staff has ,conducted some research
into the relative advantages of Romex (non-metallic conduit) wiring
with ,regard to the conventional metallic conduit procedure. In.a
letter to OPP, dated January 4, 1973, the city staff stated its
Iowa City City Council January 16, 1973
Page 2
'recommendation that Romex wiring be permitted only in one- and
two-family residential construction. This recommendation was
supported with lists of cities which either prohibit Romex entirely
or limit its use to one- and two-family dwellings. Cost compari-
sons between an estimate for wiring in Romex and in metallic conduit
revealed a cost saving 'with Romex, but it was, concluded that this
saving was "insignificant."
It appears from a review of the information gathered by the city.
staff, and on the basis ofl research conducted by, local contractors,
that the -relative advantages of Romex 14-iring urith regard to the
conventional methods is a subject which merits further investiga-
ti6n. rClearly a substantial case can be made:for both the posi-
tion of the city staff and that of the CACH and the Housing Committee.
It is further recommended, therefore, 'thatwhen the time comes to
consider the Uniform State' Building Code package, the City Council
make a deliberate effort to hear the arguments of both sides of the
Romex issue. Regardless of whether the state package complies'with
the recommendations of the city staff or of the CACH and the Housing
Committee, the City Council is obligated to weigh carefully the
arguments on both sides of the Romex wiring question.

Gentlemen:
Lyle Fisher has reported the results of the meeting held
last night on solid waste. If we understand correctly,
Your Operating costs are anticipated to be approximately
$1.75 per ton of refuse. Your staff in turn are proposing
to dispose of waste generated outside of Iowa City', at a cost
of $3.50 per ton.
We can sympathize with Iowa City's position in attempting
to:recover part of the administrative costs involved in
such a project, but We do feel that 101% administrative
costs are excessive.
In view of the very limited funds available to us for this
purpose, we feel that we must consider this problem very
caiefully.. It would be highly undesirable for us to enter
into an agreement such as this without making very certain
that sufficient funds were legally available to us.
We would urge the City Council to delay making a firm
commitment on the charge for this service until the Board'
of Supervisors has had a chance to study and evaluate our
position in this matter.
Sincerely,
Robert J. Burns

The Iowa City City Council received your letter requesting
that the Council delay making a firm decision on charges
for the use of the sanitary landfill at their meeting,on
January 30, 1973. The Council expressed the desire to
discuss further the proposed fee for use of the landfill
by those outside the city limits of Iowa City, and plans
to have that discussion Tuesday, February 6 at their

the east, that traffic coming from the west and south could
be directed to another street. If this traffic were directed
to Gilbert or Lucas streat, the 80 highway could be reached
by "going up Church street or Ronalds street, and no hills on
either street. The heavy traffic should be directed around Wee
City. Vle realize there may be some local heavy traffic to
reach businesses, but if this i,, -ere done the complexity of vo,"I'l,icles

To: File
=-or..' Real Estate Coordinator
Subject: Appraisal review setting Fair Market Value
Althou.ah the; two appraisalsare only 10 off in.their final
eszi to o£ value on this property the many details and smaller
side issues made it a most difficult parcel to review.
To start with, many items included in the Dix immovable fixture
inventory Iwere included in the real estate appraisal. 1t was
necessary to meet with Mrs. Dykes and Mr. ;Staci',and go over the
fixture list to ascertain which it ns were-Staci's and w'r.ich
items Airs. Dykes',had-installed and were to be considered' part
of tine real estate. Straightening out this one, issue alone-..
reduces our offer by ',$24,000.00: -
Tho second issue to be resolved was that 'the anDraisers annraised
the building as being a sound structure when in £act'it was not.
The; =.fount necessary to put the building in good repair them
rust be subtracted from their final estimate o£ value-'. " Shive-'
cattery and Associates of loth City, Civil and Structural Eng=veers
.ere:hired t0..examine ..the ..building and 'their reconstruction esti-,..:.
mates totaled $17,',000.00. This amount was then subtracted from
tho appraisers final estimate of value. -
hi_d issue was that one appraiser said that the Varsity
.:_o,...o_l s had'. less than a year left on their., lease. so' no leasehold
-,as considered. The other aropraiser said the Varsity Cleaners
2S months left on their` lease' and an $8,000.00 leasehold
:rarest. :1n examination of the Varsity Clearers lease sho`ids
irroaly 21'tonths remaining on the lease, refigured'to a lease-
:.c intarast o£ $6,000.00.
' our th issue to be resolved was that one appraiser gave Henry's
sing Co. a leasehold interest of $46j000.00 and the other
paged it at $23,000.00.
:.;0 aot:rce of the difference in the estimate of leasehold ir.
<!
Ss i:enry's Lea sing Co. has a 10 year lease with
:s. yi:es aid two five year options. One appraiser in essence
Eon:-y's leasehold interest should then be for 20 years.
c oti:cr a•;praise. in o££oct says the leasehold interest shcuid
ro• 7-0 years and puts doubt on whether or not the two 5 year
ions would be exercised. The reason he gives for the options
going _.,N -on up is as �ollours: Henry's' Leasing Co.'s lease
Y. s. Dy.,:os calls for a base rent of $800.00 per month rlus
•`
u Sol rf A..s. Dykes remodeling costs. Since the remodeling cost
l5C.15 the base rent became $17,712.41 per ,year plus an
Parcel 54-6 -2-
additional 5t rent for any sales exceeding $192,000 annually. At
the end of 10 years the option calls for a rent of $10,560 plus an
additional S$ of all sales over $211,000.00. As can be seen,
t:^.ere is a sizeable rent reduction after 10 years. This is
because the improvements firs. Dy'.ces put•, in will be raid for
and presumeably depreciated U. Fast food establishments have
a great deal of design or decor obsolescence and will therefore
need to be remodeled at the .and Of 10. years to remain competitive'.
Staci Incoruorated rents from Henry's Leasing Co. and pays a base
rent of $21,150.15 per year -0 7% of annual sales in,e::cess of

collects from'Staci and'pays to Airs. Dykes is the basis for
Henry's leasehold interest.
At the end of the initlal:10. year period Staci's lease with'
Henry's calls for no rent reduction s0 he would be faced with
vaying an extremely 'nigh rent and using obsolete equipment. The
cost of remodeling would"also fall on Staci and it is; very
doubtful that, he would bear the cost of this remodeling plus
haying the high :err.
Another factor in that would. keen.Staci;fTom renewing ,his
lease is inflation. using some imaginary figures and very

IOWA CITY. IOWA 52240
PHONE 351.3085
January 23,1973
Mr. Ray Wells
City Manager
Civic Center
Iowa City, Iowa 52240
Dear Ray:
Following our discussion last Thursday concerning the sanitation
levels of food service establishments in Iowa City, I asked David'
Pedersen on our staff to prepare a statement as to current conditions
in these establishments. The attached memo from Dave will give you
some idea of the working levels of sanitation.
The demerit level referred to in Mr. Pedersen's memo is in reference
to the Public Health Service RecommendedOrdinance and Code Demerit
System, which has been adopted by Johnson County.
The food service establishments in Johnson County were surveyed in
early 1969 at which time the average demerit level was forty (40).
This is approximately the level that you could start to consider
revocation of permits. .Prior to this time, the restaurant inspection
program in 'Iowa City had, been conducted by the City itself. Two
years later, in`1971,',when I came to this ,office I again surveyed
the food service establishments and found that after two years under
the new program the demerit score for all practical purposes was
unchanged, with an average of approximately 40 demerits.
The entire food service program was temporarily halted After re
shuffling and retraining the staff, the food service program was again
instituted and•has not been ;surveyed since that time.
As you can see from the average demerit score of eleven (11) demerits
now, as opposed to 40 two years ago, this program is prod results. "
For all practical purposes, we find that survey scores are 'invariably
he enforcement scores resulting higher than t g from routine inspection.
g
There are good and just, reasons for this and is to be expected. Normally
we do not find that the survey scores exceed the enforcement scores by
more than fifty percent.
As you can see from the attached memo, there are some food service
establishments which are significantly higher than we would like. All
of these establishments have received written notice of the pending
revocation and are scheduled for a reinspection by January 30th to
determine compliance with our regulations. 'In addition, I should state
• that this will be a joint inspection with the representative from the
Iowa Department of Agriculture.
• Mr. Ray Wells
City Manager -2- January 23, 1973
I believe this is as clear and accurate'a picture as I can give you of
the food service sanitation in Iowa City at this time. If the represent-
atives of the Johnson County Health Council have some specific references
to substandard sanitation levels in any of the restaurants in Iowa City
I would be happy to talklto'them in order to correct such a situation.
I concur with this committee in that I think a closer communication
between the Board of Health and your office would be highly desirable.
As per our discussion, I have asked our secretary to send you a formal
notice of each joint meeting between the Board of Health and the Board
of Supervisors in order to assist in, this communication problem. '`If
` this meeting time is not convenient, please give me a call and I am
sure we will be able to work out some sort of arrangementthat will be
acceptable to everyone.
Sincerely,
Lyle M. Fisher

RE: 'Demerit Scores accumulated during restaurant inspections.
Discussion:
The 'scores resulting from my last round of food service establish -

they include the demerit scores of food service establishments cur-
rently under re -inspection status. At the present time, there are
nine food service establishments that must pass a reinspection
prior to issuance of a 1973 Johnson County Food Service Permit.
Results:
Eighty-two (82) inspection scores were tabulated, and the mean
demerit score was 10.9 points.

Planning & Zoning Commission

SUBJECT:
Z-7221. Additional comments
concerning;a Planned Area
Development Submission for a
tract of ,land of'Court Crest, Inc.
STAFF
COMMENT:
During the.January ll,,1973,P,& Z
Commissionmeeting, the Commissioners':
requested' the'Staff''and Developer
explore',the possibility of 'using
a PAD for use
of a club for the
subject property. The City Attorney
was consulted
at length and issued
essentially the following
opinion. The
PAD provisions' of;
the Zoning;,Code cannot be used ;
for a Club as
proposed by the Commission. The PAD General
Provisions of
Land Use require "combinations
of uses including',
single family,
miltifamily, and
commercial." A club is a'
singular use,
not a combination
of uses, ,and as such would
require a rezoning.
A PAD is, fora mixture of interrelated
residential and supporting uses.
