Item No. 8 CONSIDER RESOLUTION PROHIBITING PARKING. ON 7ME,NORTII SIDE OF IOWA
AVENUE FROM VAN BUREN FAST .160.FEET AND PROHIBITINGPARKING ON THE
— y flt9 PAST SIDE OF VAN BUREN FROM IOWA NORTH 150 -FEET.
Comment: The University of Iowa Credit Union has built a new parking lot
adjacent to their new facilities and they are requesting that
parking be removed to aid sight distance and safety in the vicinity
of the parking lot and at the intersection of :Van Buren and Iowa.
Public Works has investigated the situation and agrees that it would
be a good idea to remove parking from a safety standpoint; however,
there is a heavy • parking demand in the area. The Credit Union countered this by stating they have removed much of the parking
demand by removal of the apartment houses, that were on the site and
in addition have built a large parking; lot.
Public Works is not able to offer a firm recommendation.

Item No. 9 '- CONSIDER MOTION CHANGING LANDFILL CLOSING HOURS FROM 6:00 P.M. TO
5:00 P.M. DURING RE WINTER.
Comment:- Public Works wishes to change the closing hour at the Landfill to
5:00 P.M. during the winter months due.to the fact that we are
operating in complete darkness during the last hour of operation.
This is dangerous to both the Landfill operators and users, and we
do want to start closing at 5:00-P:M. during the period when we are
off of Daylight Saving Time from now to; Spring of 1976
This earlier closing will create problems for at least one of the
refuse haulers and, while we are aware of this, we feel that operating
in darkness simply cannot be justified from a safety standpoint. Notice
has been sent to Iowa City refuse -haulers concerning this motion.
