It also includes the Taft Speedway area of Iowa City, bordered by the Iowa River the south, Taft Speedway to the north, Elks Lodge Golf Course to the west, and Terrill Mill Park to the east. II. Detailed Project Description A. Describe the problem to be mitigated: This project will mitigate repetitive river flood losses in the Park View Terrace and Taft Speedway neighborhoods of Iowa City, low lying flood-prone residential areas. Following heavy rains and spring flooding, roads must be closed to local traffic. This impacts emergency response vehicles, the transportation of children to and from school, delivery of mail, and other governmental services such as trash collection. In the Park View Terrace area, 140 residences are directly affected and in the Taft Speedway area, 12 houses are affected. On Park Road near Normandy Drive, which is the entry road into Park View Terrace, nearly 7000 cars a day had to be redirected as a result of the 2008 flood. Tab A Property Acquisition Project Application Final Version -September 2008 Page 2 DR-1763 HMGP Application B. Scope of Work Summary Provide a brief description of the proposed project and work to be accomplished. The city will acquire 35 flood prone residences in the Park View Terrace area and 5 flood prone properties in the Taft Speedway area. This project will alleviate the continued repair costs to the city and to residents as well as the need for government services to the area. This project will allow this area to be returned to open space use in the flood plain. C. Mitigation Plan Information 1. Title of Applicant/Community's Local Hazard Mitigation Plan: ~~T Iowa City Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. 2a. Mitigation strategy, measure(s), action, or objective that this proposed project will address: The Iowa City Local Mitigation Plan is in the process of being developed and should be completed by fall of 2009. Iowa City is submitting a Extraordinary Circumstances Planning Waiver to the regional FEMA office to allow time to complete the plan. Mitigation measures surrounding flooding will be an important part of the plan. The Local Mitigation Planning Team rated River Flooding as 9/9 for historical significance (number of times an event has occurred in Iowa City) and 7/9 for severity of impact. The latter reaches the catastrophic level where there could be multiple deaths, property would be destroyed or damaged beyond repair, and there would be a complete shutdown of essential facilities and services for 3 days or more. 2b. Location in the Local Plan (section, page #, etc) where the mitigation measure(s), action, or objective is identified: The Iowa City Local Hazard Mitigation Plan is in the process of being developed. 3. How does the project conform to the State of Iowa and local mitigation goals? Explain: This project conforms to State mitigation goals by seeking to remove property and people from the path of repetitive flooding, converting the area to green space, and restoring the floodplain to its natural function. The Iowa Hazard Mitigation Plan in Goal ~~ 21.2 states Deaths, injuries, property loss, and economic disruption due to river flooding will be reduced." Objective 21.1.2 on page 293 in the Mitigation Strategy Section outlines" Acquisition, repair, or retrofitting of property and acquisition and use of equipment will be used to prevent or reduce risks to property from river flooding." The City anticipates that it will conform to local mitigation goals once the local hazard mitigation plan is completed. D. Will the proposed mitigation measure provide an independent and long-term solution to the problem? Consider anticipated long-term changes to the community. Explain: Yes The proposed mitigation measure will provide an independent and long-term solution to the problem by permanently removing the repetitively damaged properties from the flood prone areas and converting the space to green space in perpetuity. The project does not conflict with any long-term planning for Iowa City. Iowa City's Comprehensive Plan "Iowa City Beyond 2000- How Do We Get There?" supports acquisition and management of watersheds, floodplains, wetlands, and green ways. It specifically argues for the acquisition of stream banks and floodplains of Ralston Creek, Willow Creek, and the Iowa River page 43). E. How does the proposed mitigation measure address a repetitive problem or a problem that poses a significant risk to public health and safety if left unresolved? Explain: The project permanently moves the at-risk structures and people from frequently flooded areas. Significant flooding and resultant damages occurred in 1993 and 2008. If left unresolved, the Park View Terrace and Taft Speedway areas will continue to flood, causing further structural damage and potential injury and illness to the residents. The area lies within an identified floodplain and should be converted to green space to prevent further and future damage and loss. Removing the homes and properties from the areas will be the most effective and environmentally sound alternative from the range of alternatives that are available. Removal will be the only method to ensure that residents will be safe. F. How will the proposed mitigation measure substantially reduce future disaster losses, including the risk of future damage, hardship, loss, and/or suffering? Explain: Tab A Property Acquisition Project Application Final Version -September 2008 Page 3 DR-1763 HMGP Application The project eliminates the risk of property damage, personal injury, and loss of life by permanently removing the at-risk structures and people from the floodplain. This will alleviate strains in the City budget following flood events and save residents the financial and emotional expense of repetitive flooding losses. G. Will the community suffer severe detrimental impacts (loss of life, loss of essential services, damage to critical facilities, economic hardship) if the proposed mitigation measure is not implemented? Explain: Yes, the City often is unable to provide essential services following some events because of the impassable roads, leaving the residents stranded until the water recedes. In some cases of heavy flooding, the water does not recede for several months. During this time, there are significant public health issues from water and electricity possibly not being available to stranded residences. Emergency vehicles can not access the homes. Homeowners, police, and rescue people are placed at extreme risk during the next large flood. H. Describe damages caused by previous and current disasters and their associated costs -use historical data. July 1993- flooding from the Iowa River-crested 6.5 feet above flood stage-total damages in Johnson County were approximately $14 million(Sources: FEMA Damage Survey Reports; Coralville, lowa;lowa City Chamber of Commerce Survey;HDR Engineering, Inc.; Flood Data Study; Iowa City Press-Citizen).In Iowa City over 140 residences were affected(Source:City of Iowa City).June 2008- flooding from the Iowa River-crested 9.5 above flood stage-total residential damages projected to be $60 million. There were 270 residences affected in Iowa City(Source:City of Iowa City). In addition, there were millions of dollars of damages to businesses and significant damages to the University of lowa(Source:University of Iowa). There was also damages to utilities, roads, bridges,a church, public buildings, parks, and a commercial district Source:City of Iowa City). I. Hazard to be Mitigated/Level of Protection 1.

Discussion of Project Alternatives -Proposed Project 8~ 2 Alternatives: A. Project descriptions and impacts (both beneficial and detrimental): Do Nothing Alternative: If nothing is done to alleviate the flooding problem, the area will continue to sustain flood damages, resulting in further damage to the structures, lower property values, increased costs to the city, and continued loss of services. Homeowners,rescue staff, police, fire, and other city personnel will again be placed in a dangerous situation. Proposed Project: The project involves Iowa City acquiring 40 residential properties, permanently removing them from the floodplain. The area will be converted in perpetuity to green space, restoring the flood plain to its natural function. Iowa City will be saved repair costs resulting from clean-up and eliminated services to the area. The loss of property taxes on these structures are much less than the anticipated expenses for flood damages. The residents plan to relocate within the area. Other Feasible Alternative (include estimated cost): Elevation of the residential structures is an alternative to acquisition, but it does not completely solve the problem. While the structures and contents may be better protected from floodwaters, access and risk of personal injury and death still remain. Also, elevation may not protect the structures and occupants from severe flood events. The estimated costs for elevation are $30,000 per unit or approximately $ 1.1 million for 39 homes. Many of these homes are on slab foundations, which would dramatically increase the cost of elevating the homes. B Justification for choosing the proposed project -discuss how the proposed project is the most practical, effective, and environmentally sound alternative of the alternatives. The City Council of Iowa City decided this was the best alternative after receiving notices of interest from homeowners interested in HMPG acquisition and after reviewing several different scenarios presented to them by the city manager and city staff at their September and October work sessions. The justification for this alternative was that elevation and flood proofing do not address the flooding problem as well as acquisition does. The structures and residents still remain at risk. Iowa City would still be required to maintain services in the area and possibly provide rescue in the event of another severe flood event,which the city has experienced twice in the past 15 years. Acquisition allows for the flood plain to be restored to its natural function and provides for a recreational area for the community. Furthermore, it relives a strain on the city budget following each event and allows Iowa City to discontinue services to the properties purchased. Homeowners will not face regular disruptions in their lives. Lost property taxes are minimal when compared to the continued expenses. In summary, city staff and city council believe this project has the greatest potential impact to reduce future disaster losses. ~, Describe how the proposed project best fits within the overall development plan for the community. The acquisition project fits with the community's goal of creating more green space and recreational areas for residents and visitors. Acquisition does not conflict with any other section of the development plan. Iowa City's Comprehensive Plan "Iowa City Beyond 2000-How Do We Get There?" supports acquisition and management of watersheds, floodplains, wetlands, and green ways. It specifically argues for the acquisition of stream banks and floodplains of Ralston Creek, Willow Creek, and the Iowa River (page 43). Tab A Property Acquisition Project Application Final Version -September 2008 Page 6 DR-1763 HMGP Application D. Describe how the proposed project best fits within the overall multi-hazard mitigation plan for the community. Iowa City is creating its Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan. However, actions that remove risk to residents will be a integral part of the final mitigation plan. As mentioned earlier, because of the number of occurrences of river flooding in Iowa City and the potential severity of impact of such events, creating plans that address this hazard will be an important part of the plan. ~ DRAFT V.
