COUNCIL DISCUSSION
MARCH 51 1974
4:00 P.M,
The Iowa City City Council met in informal session on the
5th day of March 1974 at 4:00 P.M. in the Conference Room at the
Davis Building.
Councilmembers present: Czarnecki, Davidsen, Brandt, White.
deprosse absent. Staff members present: Hayek, Kraft, Morris,
Pugh, Wells, Bonnett, Maune, Hurkett, Zelenka. Library Board
members present: Buchan, Downer, Farber, Canter, Trumpp, Kirkman,
Richerson.
Concerning the Library's request, City Manager Ray Wells
explained that the cause of the problem had been identified as
a mid -year adjustment in 1973, which caused the1973budget to
be overexpended by $5,600, and recommended Council approve the
$5,600 increase to the Library budget for 1974, from year -ending
balances. This would meet what the city employees were given.
Council discussed if service contracts with other cities
reflected the increase in library costs, and noted budget
process -to start soon.
Councilman White commented on the relationship between the
Library Board and the City Manager, and suggested a discussion
by a committee from the Board and the Mayor and City Manager on
whatever ways could facilitate library operations by utilizing
managerial ability and staff capacity. It was the general
concensus of the Board to agree, and they advised that they
would discuss it at their next meeting.
The City Manager noted that concerning the mass transit
grant application, the items as pointed out at the last
discussion- maintain the level of service that Council had
indicated it wanted, including three buses and other routing_
In answer to the question on what effect consolidation
of facilities would have on our dollar amount, the City
Manager said that basically the maintenance facilities are
sized to accommodate a fleet of twenty-five.pieces of equip -
1 t 1 inte rated additional shelters
ment, and if comp e e y g
would'be needed, and noted would have to see the other applications.
It was suggested that if each governmental unit submits
an application, it would speed up the process. The review
could,start and UMPTA would send someone in. The Mayor noted
that it could be discussed at the next University meeting.
Mr. Kraft advised that the grant application would have to
be increased $2,000 for each bus, so this item would increase
to $141,000.
Councilman White explained the difference between the
Transit Co-ordinating Committee and the Transit Advisory
Committee. He then advised he would be resigning as Iowa
City's representative to the Transportation Policy Committee,
because of other demands on his time and also that he felt
that the chairperson of the Commission itself probably best
not be involved in submitting recommendationsto the Commission
on which he will be chairing debate and discussion.
The City Manager stated that other ramification,'of new
routes and purchase of leased buses could be discussed on
March 19th. He noted it would take a minimum of thirty days
after the decision to implement the routing.
Council then discussed the List of Pending Council Items,
and requested some designation or symbol on items which would
not appear on the next list. Mr. Kraft advised of an up date
for 74-1444A in their next Planning and zoning minutes. Attorney
Hayek noted he had been considering hiring a law student to
assist in area of landlord -tenant item. In discussion of street
storage ordinances, Mayor Czarnecki commented that a fee could
be charged to park on the streets. Mr. White suggested a response
to 73-1541. Concerning 73-155Q Mr. Pugh reported a plan utiliz-
ing the bank had been given to the Chamber of Commerce, and
the Mayor advised ISPIRG had circulated a flyer.
Attorney Hayek advised he would file a report on the status
of the vacation of Lower West Branch Road, but noted that the
easement was owned, rather than fee title; had been deeded in -1.860
as Davenport Road, and upon vacation possession reverts to adjoin-
ing property owner. He discussed Council options. The Ordinance
will be added to the agenda on March 19th.
The City Manager presented the Policy Handbook and Admirii.s-
trative Manual prepared by Administrative Aides Kay Maune and Bill
Neppl, noting that it was the basic format, and there are other
areas Council might want to add. Staff is developing the Purchasing
Policy and Procedures and the Personnel Manual. Discussion was
set for March 26th.
