RE: Planning Session
The development of the Capital Improvement Program budget will
include more staff review and planning this year. As a part of
that process, a staff planning session is scheduled. The main
objective of this session will be to develop long-term goals
for the City which can then be related to the CIP. In addition,
goals for FY81 will be developed to provide input to Council for
its annual goal setting session.
The planning session is scheduled for August 1, 1979, from 9:00
a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Mark your calendar. Mid -management personnel
who deal with the CIP should also attend. You will be receiving
more information about the planning session later this week.

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 25, 1979
To: City Council
From: Rosemary Vitosh, Director of Finance flJ
Re: Budget Process and Budget Monitoring
The following modifications are being suggested for our upcoming
budget process (FY81 budget) and for monitoring of the FY80 budget.
1. CIP Budget. The CIP budget process has already started. More
staff review and planning will be involved in the preparation of
the CIP this year. A staff planning session will be held on
August 1 to develop long-term goals for the City. These goals
will then be used in the development of the CIP and as input for
the Council's goal -setting session for FY81. In late
September, the five year CIP will be presented to Council for
approval, subject to coordination with the FY81 operating
budget.
2. FY81 Budget Process. The use of levels and narrative will be
somewhat reduced for the FY81 budget. Budgets will be prepared
for each decision unit for the current level of service. In
addition, the department must state what they would cut out if
they had to reduce their total budget dollars by five percent or
by ten percent.
For any new programs or increases in level of service being
requested, the department would request funding for each item
separately and would not include them with their current
service level budget. In effect, these would be additional
levels which would require departments to define the program,
present justification and projected cost. This would include
such things as capital outlay purchases for items that are not
replacement items, one time funding needs, (i.e. local matches
for grants), improvements in the current level of service being
provided and new employee positions. By separating these from
the current level of service and itemizing them it would provide
an alternatives list to utilize in deciding what to fund.
3. Budget Monitoring. Overall budget monitoring and reporting
will be intensified during FY80. The first set of budget
amendments is planned for Council approval by mid-September.
The quarterly financial status report will be made to the City
Manager and the Council in an effort to keep them better
informed of funding shortages and/or availabilities. In
addition, because required budget amendments do affect the
financial status, they will collected throughout the year and
discussed with Council along with the quarterly financial
status report.
The foregoing proposals and other suggestions which you might have
will be discussed at the informal session of July 30.

MEMORANDUM
Date: July 20, 1979
To: Neal G. Berlin, City Manager
From:
Terry Steinbach,
Senior Housing
Inspector
Re:
Warrack Property
Located at 812
E. Davenport
This property was originally inspected by Pamela S. Barnes on June 1,
1978, due to a request from the owner of the property, Mrs. Adrian
Flatt. Mrs. Flatt was considering renting or selling the property and
wished to be advised of any housing code violations in the event that
she decided to rent. The house had been occupied by Mrs. Flatt's son
while he attended college, however, he had graduated prior to this
inspection and the house was vacant.
Ms. Barnes issued a notice of violation to Mrs. Flatt on June 22, 1978
and Mrs. Flatt came to the housing office on June 26, 1978 and received
service of this notice from Rose Anne Fink. Inspector Barnes granted a
90 day period for Mrs. Flatt to correct the violations. She followed up
on the case with a reinspection on September 28, 1978.
At the time of reinspection, Ms. Barnes discovered that the property had
been sold to Mr. and Mrs. A. Giles Warrack. She informed them that a
notice of violation had been issued to Mrs. Flatt.
On October 5, 1978, Ms. Barnes hand delivered a copy of the notice of
violation that had previously been issued to Mrs. Flatt, to Mrs. War -
rack. Ms. Barnes, at that time asked for a letter from the Warrack's
stating their intentions in regards to the violations. Ms. Barnes told
Mrs. Warrack that she would allow them 45 days to write the letter.
On January 16, 1979, Inspector Barnes found that she had not received
any correspondence from the Warracks, and decided to reissue the notice
to the Warracks.
On January 22, 1979, Ms. Barnes contacted Mrs. Warrack, who stated that
they had moved out of the house and were considering renting it. Mrs.
Warrack stated that they were quite upset about the ceiling height
violation since they were unaware of the violation at the time that they
purchased the property. Ms. Barnes replied to Mrs. Warrack stating that
she would extend the case another three weeks and request administrative
review.
On January 24, 1979, Ms. Barnes was directed by Bruce Burke, Acting
Senior Housing Inspector, to issue a new notice of violation and that
she file for service on the Warracks. Ms. Barnes conducted an inspec-
tion of the property on February 1, 1979, and issued a notice of viola-
tion on February 8, 1979. This notice was hand delivered to Mrs. War -

rack on February 26, 1979. The notice contained the violation of lack
of ceiling height. Ms. Barnes issued this notice because the first and
second floors measured 619" from floor to finished ceiling.
On March 6, 1979, the Housing Department received a letter from Mr. A.
Giles Warrack requesting a hearing before the Housing Appeals Board in
regards to the ceiling height violation.
The Appeal Board heard the case on May 10, 1979. There decision was to
grant a continuance until the next meeting of the Appeals Board, at
which time legal counsel would be available to answer questions raised
by the Board members.
i
This case has been held in abeyance, due to an administrative decision
since that date for reason of proposed housing code amendments.

RE: Hickory Hill Park Shelter ERR
Attached for your review and information is the complete Environmental
Review Record (ERR) for the Hickory Hill Park Shelter project. The
ERR was completed by Mark Hildebrand of the Parks and Recreation Depart-
ment, with assistance from Marianne Milkman of the Planning and Program
Development Department. We have concluded that there will be no signi-
ficant effect caused by this project.
The park shelter will be identical to that built this past year at
Willow Creek Park. It is to be funded jointly with CDBG and Heritage
Conservation and Recreation Grant funds and a $1,200 donation from the
Bluebirds.
If you have any questions regarding the ERR, please contact Marianne
Milkman.

PROJECT NAME: Neighborhood Park Improvements July, 1979
Hickory Hill Park Shelter
SUBMITTING DEPARTMENT: Iowa City Parks and Recreation Department
_. Dennis E. Showalter, Director
HICKORY HILL
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A. Location.
1. Specific Location.
.r
} See attachment N1.
+ 2. General Location.
�* Hickory Hill Park is in the northeast quadrant of Iowa City. The
park is bounded on the south by Bloomington Street and
residential housing. To the west is Oakland Cemetery and to the
«i northwest is St. Joseph Cemetery. The north side is farmland and
pasture. To the southeast is Regina High School.
B. Description.
1. General Description of the Park.
Hickory Hill Park has two parking lots for approximately 30 cars,
one off Bloomington Street and the second on Conklin Lane in the
north portion of the park. The total acreage of the park is 97.5
- acres. There is one existing shelter at the south end of the
park.
The topography of the park is varied with 130 feet separating the
j highlands from the lowlands. Some points of the park are gentle
J slopes while others are steep slopes.
{ Vegetation varies from wooded areas to old fields and stream
beds. The two main types of trees are hickory and oak which can
be found all over the park. Also there are two types of grass;
Kentucky Bluegrass and brome grass. In the southern park there
is some open space while in the northern park, an arboretum is
being built which will contain approximately 15 acres of open
If
space.
iii Hickory Hill Park is a quiet park with nature trails where one is
able to go and enjoy the park and learn more about the ecology of
the environment. The park will not have any kind of playground
equipment or sports activities. The main goal of this type of
park is to have it for the beauty of nature. It would be
difficult to determine the usage of the park because it is open
I and does not need to be reserved for use. There are many groups

ascription of Project Site.
le proposed project site is located east of the north (Conklin)
irking lot, 255 feet south of the north property line. The site
11 utilize approximately .25 acre. There are some trees in the
-ea but none will need to be removed to construct the shelter.
e site has about a 2% grade. Photographs of the area are
tached (attachment N3).
fleted Project Site.
scription of Shelter.
completed project site will be a hexagonal shaped shelter
nipped with restroom facilities designed for use by the
idicapped. The shelter will be constructed of structural
ael finished with wood to conform with the nature orientation
Wndt is prevalent throughout the park. It will be constructed on
a poured concrete slab which will necessitate minor grading to
allow for a level pour of concrete. This excavating will be less
than one foot. There will also be temporary excavation for the
installation of a septic tank and water lines. A septic tank and
field at this location has been verbally approved by the Johnson
County Health Department. The total height of the shelter from
the concrete slab to the top of the structure will be 12'9-3/811.
The height from the concrete slab to the lowest point of the roof
overhang will be 719h". The entire shelter will cover a total of
1,496 square feet with an approximate diameter of 43 feet (see
specifications attachment M4, M5). A guaranteed completion date
is June 30, 1980.
2. Proposed Use of Shelter.
This shelter will provide a point of departure and return for
users of the nature trail. It will offer shelter from the
elements for picnickers and other park visitors. The shelter
will serve as a multi -functional structure within the park.
D. Project Service Area.
Hickory Hill Park is one of two community wide parks serving the
entire Iowa City area. In addition the park serves as a neighborhood
park for residents in the immediate vicinity of the park.
COSTS AND FUNDING SOURCES
Cost estimate is $23,000. Source of funding is as follows:

PROJECT GOALS
Hickory Hill Park contains 97.5 acres, and is a city-wide recreational,
nature -oriented park for Iowa City.
It also serves the people in the northeast section of the City, par-
ticularly the CDBG neighborhood site improvement area as a neighborhood
park. There is a definite need for a facility of this type for all the
citizens of the City of Iowa City.
Specific objectives of the project are:
I. To provide restroom facilities for handicapped within the park.
2. To provide a place for storage for the arboretum.
3. To provide a shelter within the north end of the park for
picknicking, visitors and other park users during inclement
weather.
4. To provide an area from which a park visitor will be able to
obtain a panoramic view of the area in the northeast of Iowa
City.
5. To promote better neighborhood and community usage of the park
for which it was originally designed.
When the above project is completed, a major step will have been taken
toward vitalization of this aesthetically pleasing, functional and
enjoyable park that will be a true asset to the community and the park
system.
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITIES
A. Physical Environment.
1. Land.
Three main soil types are found in the area.
a. Soil Type #320; Soil Type Name: The Arensville Series
The Arensville series consists of well drained soils formed
in a silty alluvium on flood plains. Typically, these soils
have a dark grayish -brown silt loam surface layer, 10
inches thick, and brown, dark grayish -brown and very dark
grayish -brown silt loam, stratified with lenses of fine and
very fine sand underlying material, with a buried surface

Slopes range from 0 to 3 percent, used mostly for pasture
and woodland.
u
°
b. Soil Type #220; Soil Type Name: The Nodaway Series
The Nodaway series consists of moderately well drained
soils formed in silty alluvium on bottom lands. The surface
layer is very dark grayish -brown silt loam 7 inches thick.
w,
The substratum is stratified, dark grayish -brown, grayish -
brown and very dark grayish -brown silt loam. Slopes range

from 0 to 2 percent. Many areas are cultivated, but some
are in pasture.
i
C. Soil Type #163; Soil Type Name: The Fayette Series
f
The Fayette series consists of well drained soils formed in
loess under forest vegetation on convex ridgetops and side -
slopes on uplands and stream terraces. They have a very
dark gray silt loam surface layer 3 inches thick and dark
grayish -brown silt loam subsurface layers 8 inches thick.
-
The subsoil extending to 47 inches is brown, dark
yellowish -brown and yellowish -brown silty clay loam. The
substratum is yellowish -brown silty loam. Slopes range
from 0 to 40 percent, most areas are in cultivated crops,
sloping areas are commonly in pasture or woodland.
I "-
2. Vegetation, Wildlife and Natural Areas.
I _
Because Hickory Hill Park is 97.5 acres the vegetation and
wildlife are varied. It is a park providing a rich nature
experience from the upland woods to the flood plain. This also
results in a large variety of wildlife.
!
Over 150 species of birds have been spotted at one time or
another in the park and the bird population is large and
�.
diversified.

3. Surrounding Land Uses.
Hickory Hill Park is in the northeast quadrant of Iowa City. The
south section has residential houses; to the north there is farm
use and Regina High School property adjacent on the east side.
There are two cemeteries adjacent to Hickory Hill Park, Oakland
Cemetery on the west and St. Joseph on the northwest. (See
..
attachment #I)
4. Pollution Levels.
a. Air.
The extent and nature of emission concentrations present in
the project area have not been measured. The principal land
use affecting ambient air quality would be neighboring
streets and highways. These traffic corridors would have
mini? onact airthe because
ry
areamslexmstin useuintensit densit uration
9 y, y, 9
.
and topography. There would not be any significant
pollution of the air due to the project.
b. Noise.
Short term noise increases are to be expected during the
_ project construction phases. However, the surrounding
trees and the topography will provide attenuating surfaces
that will lower any increase in park noise due to increased
usage.
i J
I B. Social Environment.
aHickory Hill Park's location makes it readily usable by Campfire
Girls, Daycamp groups and school groups as well as the community as a
j whole. It also serves as a neighborhood park for adjoining
! residential areas. The shelter will provide additional facilities by
providing restroom facilities, shelter from rain and a meeting area
r for groups thus• increasing park use possibilities. (See attachment
N2)
C. Aesthetic Environment.
With its wooden structure, the shelter will blend into the environment
and will not affect the beauty of the park environment.
PROJECT INITIATED ENVIRONMENTAL ALTERATIONS
I
The proposed project will not create any significant environmental
alterations.

PROJECT ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
I. Do nothing. This alternative was rejected since it would retain the
status quo and the project goals would not be fulfilled.
2. Other sites were investigated and rejected because of distance to
utility lines and the parking lot. In addition, the shelter must be
located on high land so flooding will not be a problem. The shelter
site chosen has all these advantages.
STEPS PLANNED TO MINIMIZE ADVERSE IMPACTS
All adverse impacts will be short term, those occurring during con-
struction. The type of project proposed will not require either extensive
or heavy equipment to bring about completion. In order to further minimize
any adverse impacts, construction will be scheduled during the park's off
season; September - November.
INDIVIDUALS AND AGENCIES INVOLVED IN PLANNING
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development authorized the project
to be funded with CDBG monies. The City Council of Iowa City is
responsible for the proposed project and has delegated the authority to
carry out the project to the City Manager, Neal Berlin, who would in turn,
delegate various functions to appropriate departments and individuals.
I. Department of Parks and Recreation, Dennis E. Showalter, Director.
Supervise all Park and Recreation activities.
2. Department of Community Development, Marianne Milkman; Environmental
Planner. Assist in preparing the Environmental Review Record, James

SITE VISIT
HICKORY HILL PARK
CONKLIN LANE, IOWA CITY, IOWA
i —
JUNE 25, 1979
Hickory Hill Park is a tremendous asset to the City of Iowa City. Much of its
97.5 acres is covered with tall, mature trees, predominately oak and hickory.
There are approximately seven miles of nature trails in the park. The Park
Department has seasonal nature guides, which are available at the south end of
the park, to enhance nature walks and guided tours. The school systems use the'
park as an aid to botany -biology studies, and as an outdoor classroom. An
arboretum, covering approximately fifteen acres when completed, is being
developed at the north end of the park.
The proposed shelter will be a definite asset to the park. It will be used by
Campfire Girls and Scout groups as a headquarters building for day camps. It
can be a starting point for arboretum visits, in the future. It will protect
picnic groups and other park visitors from the elements, and provide a restroom
�i
for the north end of the park.
No further structures are planned for the park. There is a strong feeling that
i
this park must be preserved as a natura rea forthfyture.

LEVEL OF CLEARANCE FINDING
Whereas the City of Iowa City, applicant for assistance under Title I of
the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, Public Law 95-353, has
carried out the prescribed Environmental Review Procedures as required and
has completed the steps applicable to the process by law.
Whereas, a review of the information in the Environmental Review Record has
shown that the project will not have a significant environmental effect.
IT IS HEREBY FOUND by the applicant that the request for release of funds
for the project is not an action which may significantly affect the quality
of the human environment.

MEMORANDUM
DATE July 24, 1979
TO: City Council
FROM: Fire Chief Robert P. Keating, Fire Marshal Lawrence H. Kinney
RE: Leaf Burning Policy
Each spring and fail the Fire Chief issues a blanket burning permit
for the burning of dry leaves and garden waste material.
During this time which is either a two or three week period, it is
not necessary to call the Fire Department for a burning permit.
The blanket burning period is well advertised by the local radio
and newspapers.
Residents do have the option to burn at other times rather than
during the blanket burning period. Persons must have a permit from the
Fire Department and they may be granted or denied depending on the
conditions.
The good comments far outweigh the complaints on leaf burning. We
do have areas in town that would be nearly impossible for residents
to haul leaves from large ravines. 1. '
In checking with the Batt. Chiefs, they report, no major problems
during the open burning period.
During the last 2 years only one complaint has been received by
this office in regard to the smoke produced by burning leaves.
We feel that our rules for open burning are followedWvery.well
by the residents.

Autumn Leaves --Ba 'Em Or Bur ' ?
g n Em .
by Scipio Thomas
Autumn leaves should be used in
compost heaps, or possibly burned,
instead of being bagged.
For Iowa City residents, burning
leaves can be inconvenient because
of a city ordinance that requires
the permission of the battalion chief
for small fires of leaves and garden
refuse. A larger fire requires the
permission of the fire marshall.
City residents do have a "re-
prieve," however, when they may go
ahead and burn their leaves if they
observe certain precautions. Accor-
ding to Brad Smothers of the Iowa
City Fire Department:
Leaves should not be burned on
windy days or near a neighbor's
laundry on a clothesline, and not
within 20 feet of buildings.
Adults must be in attendance at
all times; leaf burning should not
take place after dark, or on alleys
or streets. A garden hose (con-•
netted!) should be available at all
times for safety.
This "reprieve" is lasting from
October 21 through November 12.
Those who intend to bag leaves
should know that the bags don't
disintegrate --"Plastic bags do not
disintegrate at all, biologically,"
sais Richard Dague, UI Professor
of Engineering.
"They will melt in a 'fryer ef-
fect' if exposed to the sun for a
long period of time, but you can go
out to landfills and dig up plastic
bags that haven't disintegrated,"
he said.
Compost heaps may be the best
alternative for many. Compost is
a.soil addition made of decomposed
organic material, such as leaves,
grass clippings, animal waste and
garden refuse. It improves the
physical characteristics and fertil-
ity of the soil.
As for the recycling of leaves
into the ground, according to Neil
Salisbury, UI Professor of Geog-
raphy,."they're much better re-
cycled if you have a place to
mulch. Most leaves are pretty
acid, and this places a heavy
fertilizer demand on the soil if
they are simply plowed under."
However, mulching requires several
years as the leaves decompose and
slowly turn into "something resem-
bling manure," he said.
A good way for many to deal'
with the leaves, Salisbury said,
is to burn them and spread the
ashes over the soil. This method
retains most of the benefits,
since the mineral nutrients remain
in the ashes without the acid
content.
As for the air -pollution partic-
ulates released by burning, he saie--
there tends to be more of a problen...
with this only in large cities when
many people burn leaves at the same
time. The "half-life" of the air-
borne ash is "a couple of weeks at
best; after that time it's return-
ing to the ground," he explained.
For smaller towns, he added, "the
sum total effect of the practice is
not all so serious."
"Autumn leaves? I'd rather just play in them,"

Dear Mr. Brachtenbach:
During your discussion with the Council concerning leaf burning mention
was made of an article which appeared in Free Environment Newsbriefs.
Enclosed is a copy of that article. While I believe that certain of the
information is in error, I thought you would appreciate having a copy of
the article so that you could present the facts at the time the matter
is again discussed by the City Council.
If I can be of further assistance to you please let me know.
Sincerely yours,
Neal Berlin

TO: Members of the City Council of Iowa City
SUBJECT: The "olicy on Open Leaf Burning
Reference is made to my oral request to the City Council on November 7,
078 for a re -assessment of the policy on leaf burning, in Iowa City.
Subsequent to my nresentation, T requested the Health Science Library
of the University of Iowa to conduct, a literature survey on the re1-
eve.nt studies on leaf burning. 'Phe only study resulting from this
emmnuter screening Process, "The Health implications of Leaf Burning",
In attached. The overall conclusion of this study is: ". . it is both
unwise and dangerous to permit the further contamination of the envi-
ronment by chemical carcinogens from leaf burning emissions."
Also subsequent to my Presentation, 1 have discussed the health hazards
of leaf burning with our pediatrician. fie advised me that the smoke
from leaf burning is definitely harmful and especially so for people
afflicted with allergies or highly susceptible to asthmatic bronchitis,
such as my youngest son. tie told me, in the case of my son, to keep
him upwind of any such smoke. Of course, this is not always possible
when the smoke is blowing, into and around our house.
I have been informed that, at least, two cities, Denver, Colorado and
Dns Moines, Iowa, have already banned leaf burning. I would think that
the Council might want to Inquire as to why these cities took such
actions.
I would hone that ALL members of the City Council would take my re-
i quest. seriously and give it full consideration. I regard comments to
the effect, that "I rather like the smell of smoke from leaves" as being
flippant and an inappropriate response to a concerned citizen who has
made a thoughtfuland serious request of the City Council.
It is honed that the members of the City Council will respect the rights
of people with respiratory ailments and will make Iowa (a ty a better
Place to grow for everyone. In my judgment, there is sufficient evidence
to justify the banning of leaf burning in Iowa City on the basis of health
alone. My family and I feel very strongly about this issue and hope it
can be resolve without the necessity to organize a city-wide protest against
leaf burning in order to get this policy changed.

IM'RODUCfION
Open burning of leaves is common throughout the United States.
Most stales do have mgulatknss governing the conditions during which
leaf burning may occur. Most often, however, specific eonuol is
exercised by the municipality /11. Despite the widespread oeeunenee
of leaf burning, very little research has been reported concerning the
human health haruds of such activity.
One component of leaf burning emissions is polycyclic organic
nutter (POM). Polycyclic organic matter compounds ate formed In any
combustion process involving fossil fuels, or, more generally, compounds
containing carbon and hydrogen 121. Polycyclic organic natter colo-
pounds are products of pyrolysis, formed through complex free radial
chain reactions in the high temperature range at du Dame front. High
emissions of POM will result from inerficient combustion, low endssiam
Dom efficient, controlled burning.
Quantit3dwly, POM endsdons in Icaf burning are not nearly as
year as the emissions of either particulates or carbon m me lie. In
a recent study Initiated by the Illinuis PORnt ,o Control Board, it was
slated that "... emiWom of carinogems ate appmximatcly 10,000
timessmaller than the emissions of particulates, and 5,000 times stroller
than the emissluns of total hydmcaiboni' /3/. ikawever, slum many of
the POM compounds are carcinogenic for aninah and therefore maybe
r carcinogenic for humans, they may constitute a grater health hawd
I for the general pspulollon than either particulates or aabon monoxide.
From the point of siew of human health, the most important POM
. compounds produced in the burning of leaves tae the polycyclic arunatie
hydrocarbons:thew are the compounds which rep escut the car inogenie
friction of leaf burning emissions. Sixteen to twenty pr4)cyclic
mumu de hydric rbun compounds were recently isolated and identified
by Batielk-Columbus Laboratories ("L)• Following this Identification
by D{L, an extensive review of the published research was conducted
on these compounds during the past 50 years. The results art
presvnied below.

UTI i RATURE REVIEW
For this review, each polycyclic aromatic hydroarbon was charted
according to the aninal species tested; mode of administration; dose,
length of exposwe, and time or follow-up; and kind and site of tumor
produced. An attempt was made to rank the polyeydie compounds
recalling to their carcinogenic potential. For potent earcinogem,
ranking was comparatively simple. For weak aicinogens, however,
ranking was sometimes difficult. Not only is the amount of reseatch
on weak carcinogens scanty, the results of separate experiments
Often conflict. Where uncertainty exists, however, no attempt was
node to impose a clear rank an a compound; rather, it was indicated as
borderline.

However, as an Initiator and particularly as a to-carcinagen, pyrene
appears to be active /76/. Nhen pyrene was administered in skin
painting experiments on mice, followed by administration of 13-0•
tetrailecanoylphorbol•I Sea tate (a well-known dienual pmmuter),
papillonas were produced in a few mice. Additionally, when pyrene

at high dsk with respect to arcinogennhs. For example• the marked
Increase in overall cancer rates in people over rally years of age is
directly correlated with a decreased functional cell-mediated Immunity
function /83/. Furthernxste, individuals who have been given Immun
suppressive drugsarc known to lave an Inncased ineldena of cmar )84/.
Because thiahold levels fa chemical carcinogens cannot be predicted
for any individual, at the present time, they atainly cannot be
predicted for populations, "comprised as they are of aggregate of
genetically heterogamous Individuals with widely varying predispositions
and susceptibilities"/801.

Survey results
r
Paye 12/Sf1ELTER SENSE/August '79
111:11TR SFNSF has recrivet 3.3 c" letod surveys from the -
1,JApril issue.
Headers were asked to estimate the total number of dog; and cats
in their areas; these estimates ranged in general from 20% to
5ub of the human population in the area. Numbers of licensed
dogs ranged from 300. to 454 of the total number of animals.
Most of the responding shelters handle more dogs than cats,
but a higher percentage of the cats are being euthanized.
Euthanasia rates for dogs range from 65-84% of the total dogs
handled -- for cats 70-94%.
Twenty-one respondents require sterilization of adopted animals,
and nine report this requirement is part of the local ordinance.
From the statistics supplied, this requirement does not appear
to reduce the number of animals adopted.
Eighteen of the respondents report lower license fees for
neutered animals; fifteen report higher fines for repeated
violations of the ordinance.
The Inwa City (IA) Animal Shelter included with the survey a
chart on trends in impoundments, animal complaints, and bite
cases since 1971. Shelter Director Beverly Horton credits the
significant decrease in dog complaints to an active patrol and
law enforcement program.
The fines for repeated impoundments arc the same as for the
first violation, and shelter records show that a large part of
impoundment revenues are coming from repeat violators.
The number of dugs turned in by owners is decreasing, and the

PERSONS PRESENT: Ray Mossman, Dick Gibson, Rosemary Vitosh, Gene Dietz, Dennis Kraft
River Corridor Sewer:
Subsequent to the receipt of no bids by the City for the construction of the river
corridor sewer, a meeting was held between City and University officials. At that
time, the program was discussed in detail. Mr. Dietz indicated that there will be
borings made on either side of the river in the area of the sewer crossing in order
to get a better determination of soil and rock conditions prior to the next bid date.
Mr. Mossman indicated that he saw no problem for the University with this project.
Mr. Dietz announced that the proposed new bid date for the River Corridor Sewer
Project would be August 24.
Mr. Gibson questioned what had been done about the street lighting program along
Madison Street. Mr. Dietz indicated that he and the City's Traffic Engineer would
look into this subject.
i
Urban Renewal:
Mr. Dietz indicated that the Washington and Capitol Street paving project will be
bid on July 12, and that it is anticipated that the project will be completed by
the middle of October. The traffic circulation problem identified earlier which
would have been caused by the simultaneous closure of Madison, Washington and
Clinton Streets should not be a problem now because the Washington and Capitol
Street project should be completed about the time of the start of the Madison
Street work.
Remaining design questions to be answered on Washington and Capitol Streets will be
j discussed in a joint meeting to be held on July 12. Both City and University
representatives will be there as well as design consultants for both entities.
I Bell and Short Property:
The ownership of the Short property has been completely transferred to the University
as of this time.
I
Stormwater Infiltration Study:
Mr. Mossman indicated that the interim report on stormwater infiltration from
University buildings has been submitted by the University's consultant and that it
is expected that the final report will be ready by August 3. Following this, a
program and schedule will be developed for the disconnection of roof drains and
other stormwater drains which tie into the sanitary sewer system. It was indicated
that it would probably take 3-5 years to complete the total project.
The University is presently doing an energy audit on all buildings on campus and
the energy program probably will be coordinated with the stormwater infiltration
program for purposes of efficiency.

Court ruling : Auld trigger
more claims against cities
By DIANE GRAHAM
and Bonnie Wittenburg
QN w St." wr
Iowa cities may be hit by an in-
creasing number of liability claims as
a result of an Iowa Supreme Court
ruling issued Wednesday, according
to an official of the League of Iowa
Municipalities.
The assessment came after the
high court decided thagcities can be
held liable for damages r mun ct
otela are neg gen in enforcing
Ifiair ousmx c
The ruling stemmed from five
lawsuits filed against the City of Des
Moines and some apartment building
owners by persons seeking thousands
of dollars in damages for those killed
or injured in a Sept. 27, 1975, fire.
A Polk County District judge had
dismissed the City of Des Moines as a
defendant, saying it was not liable for
damages. But the high court reversed
that ruling and returned the case to
Polk County for trial.
Edwin Allen Jr., assistant director
of the League of Iowa Municipalities,
said the ruling follows a national
,trend of increasing municipal liability
— a trend he said has caused cities'
liability insurance rates to rise as
much as 1,000 percent in the last five
years.
He predicted that the resulting
Increase in liability claims will be
costly to cities and their residents —
"since it comes out of yours and my
pockets."
DesMoines attorney Terrence
Hopkins, who represents the city in
this and several other liability cases,
concurred. Although he had not read
the opinion, he said it appeared the
ruling could open the door for a
liability claim against cities after
every lire. .
The justices Indicated in their
decision that cities might be facing a
sizable financial burden, but said it is
the Iowa Legislature's responsibility
to change the law if necessary. .
Legislators contacted Wednesday
hadn't read the opinion, but several
Indicated they would try to seek a
middle ground —' somewhere
between exonerating cities and
making them routinely liable.
Asked If the Legislaure should
examine the issue In Its next session,
Senator David Readinger (Rep.,
Urbandale), chairman of the Senate
Cities Committee, said, "Il sounds
that way."
Hopkins said it would be a "reason-
able thing" for the Legislature to
amend state law to declare cities not
liable for failing to enforce its
building or fire codes.
'"Those statutes were intended to
improve the condition of property but"
never intended to impose liability in
case of fire," he said.
�y�La_bigt urn taid.lewsr tare
int rm ses itabilit on cities for
pe h en cM0 ej o ees who are
_Eactin wLLAn the sco�pe o err uty
OWIA=cghtildin� codes
In the fire whic6w`as a basis for the
suit, the plaintiffs alleged that Des
Moines city officials issued an Inspec-
tion certificate in February 1975,
declaring the building In compliance
with housing codes. In fact, the plain-
tiffs argued, several violations
existed at the time such as hallway
obstructions, inadequate lighting,
storage of dangerous materials and a
lack of fire detectors and extinguish-
ers.
Four persons were killed and eight
Injured in the 1975 fire, which
destroyed the building at 1128 Sixth
A've, The apartment building was
owned by Gregory Nepstad.
Allen said he was pessimistic that
legislation would be enacted. He said
bills- dealing with the liability
question have been introduced in the
last four legislative sessions but made
no headway. .
111 consider it a lost cause," he said,
predicting that attorney members of
the Legislature will stop efforts to
limit the "right to sue."
He said the liability problem has
become so costly that the municipali-
ties organization sometimes cautions
smaller towns against adopting their
own city codes in addition to the state
code.
But he doesn't go so far as to
advocate abandoning existing local
building codes.
In their ruling, the justices noted
that some city officials had raised the
possibility of abandoning municipal
inspections to avoid negligence,

CEDAR RAPIDS -DES MOINES
But the court said cities won't be
"motivated toward meaningful in-
spections while insulated from their
employees' negligence with respect to
these statutory duties. In the event of
withdrawal (of all inspections), the
void might be filled by private
agencies whose certificates could be
relied on by persons risking their
lives and property in multiple
dwelling apartments." .
Five justices supported the finding
that cities can be held liable for
negligent housing code enforcement.
Three other justices concurred in
returning the case for trial by the
lower courts, but said they don't
believe there should be a "carte
blanche holding" that city housing
codes create a duty .f6, protect all -
apartment dwellers.
