Cie, the undersigned residents of Oakerest Avenue in the block
between George and Sunset Streets., ask the City Council to
reconsider 'the 'new route of the West Benton bus.
Since July 1 the bus has come through, our block rather than
turning off Oakcrest`at,George and using Benton.
Although many of us use the bus frequently and all of us want
to have bus service, we request that the bus be re-routed so
as to bypass ouV block.
The reasons we request this change are:
(1) Oakcrest is 31'wide ,(W.`Benton is 331)
(2) W. Bentonis an arterial street while our block
of Oakcrest is composed entirely of single family
residences and -is a.purely.residential street
(3) There are -12:1 children:under the age of twelve on
our block, the street.is narrow and the sidewalk is
Close to the atreet. This poses a safety hazard to:_:_:
'theseasmAllachildren
(4) The buses, especially when.shifting gears, shake..
many residences,clattering dishes in cupboards.
In conclusion, we feel we.would be -as well served as previously
if the bus came to the corner at George and at Sunset.

Mayor Ed Czarnecki and Members
of the Iowa City City,: Council`-

Iowa City, IA S2240
Dear Mayor and Members of the City Council:
At its regular meeting.of August 1, 1974, the Executive Board
of the 'Regional-"Planning,Commission passed a motion urging the
City Council of ;Iowa City `to reconsider its action of this
week reducing the all.ocati'on of funds.to the Commission below
the amount requested "`:Primarily, there was concern that the
per capita allocation...of. $1.2S rather than the requested $1.50
would have significant negativeimpact on the planning program
of the Commission for.thisi-fiscal year. There was also concern
that other local agencies may be unwilling to continue the
expected funding level if the primary member voted a lesser
level.
Specifically, the motion adopted by.the Executive Board was a
follows:
"To communicate;.with the, Iowa City Council and
ask them to reconsider their position, speci-
ficallyhthe reduction of'.funding in the amount
of :twenty-five cents per capita for the period
of July to December -1974, and to send represen-
tatives of the ExecutiveBoardto the Council
meeting scheduled for Tuesday, August 6th."
The Executive Board would appreciate"`your consideration of this
request at your formal; meeting of -August -6th. Members of the of
the Executive Board hope to.attend to discuss this question with
you.
Si erely,
Robert Hilgenberg

STATEiiENT BY: TSABEL TURNER :MADE :'FOR .THE EXECUTIVE BOARD TO THE s '
CITY COUNCIL OF IOIVA 'CITY AUGUST'`6, 1974.
Members of the City Council, City staff: I appear before
you tonight as,a member of, and speaking for, the Executive Board
of the Regional -Planning Commission. At our meeting last Thursday
morning, it.was decided that we would ask you to reconsider your
recent action to`fund_the Regional Planning Commission at $1.25
per capita,and move to fund us at $1.50 per capita for the first
six months of the fiscal year, as requested by your own represen-
tatives to the Commission.. No criticism of your action is intended
or implied, since we know that you acted only after careful thought
and in what you sincerely believed to .be the best interests of the
City you so ably ;represent.
Under the Articles of Agreement of the Planning Commission
the responsibilities of the Executive Board include proposing an
annual budget and membership fee schedules; and further, reviewing
in detail and recommending to the Commission the Work Program and
Budget. The Executive`Board discussed the program budget for 1974-75
at seven meetings between October 1973 and May of 1974) culminating
in three more long work.sessions on June 6th, June 11th, and finally,
on June 13th, after which the Executive Board, in fulfillment of
their responsibilities,.recommended'that the Work Program -Budget
be referred to the Regional Planning Commission at their June meeting.
While this work was going on, the staff was also meeting

planning for their components These discussions also included
a brief overview of the proposed program.
Because the Executive Board is appointed from each juris-
diction, and since, almost without exception, members of the
Regional 'Planning Commission serve on. at least one functional
committee, the Nor}. Program -Budget had become at least partially
familiar to them before it was -formally presented. Members of the
Planning Commission received their copies of this budget five days
before they were to vote'on_.it; but let me emphasize again, it was
a familiar document, properly pt_epa1red in accordance with the
Articles of Agreement. This budget was approved by the Regional
Planning Commission on.June 17th, with only one dissenting vote;
surely a vote of.confidence in the1Vork Program -Budget and the
Commission.
It was known .almost from`the-beginning,that in order to
carry out this wort. program, assessments. to the participating govern -
merits would have to be.increased from'one dollar to one dollar and
fifty cents per capita. This did'.not mean that the budget was
suddenly increased, but that there ivas.finally no more money available
from :Federal and state government During the 1973-74 fiscal year,
this was a loss of $36,000`.1n federal funds, which also left the
Regional Planning Commission`supPorting the Iowa Crime Commission
and the East Central Iowa Association of Regional Planning Commissions
instead of receiving funding fromth'em.
The budget proposed for 1974-75 was $244,000, an increase
of only 4,000;over the previous year's budget,rreflecting a modest
cost of living increasein salaries, an equally modest increase in

operating-.budget, and the hirill m;6':one-half>time draftsperson to.
work on government space needs and other contracted obligations.
This budget was 'attached to and was apart of the Work
Program so that representatives of. member agencies, who voted. almost
unanimously for the Work Program_Budget, were aware that this budget
could only be implemented-by.a vote .for a $1.50 per capita assess-
ment, and indeed, it could be assumed that their vote affirmed the
budgetary requirement: It was realized, of course, that the repre-
sentatives of the governmental bodies were speaking only for them-
selves, and not for every elected official they represented. It
was equally reasonable however, to'assume that they would support
and work for this level of funding.
A very small part'of the. total budget, $2,700, is assigned
to the East Central Iowa.Association of Regional Planning Commissions,
which is proportionately funded on aper capita basis by four other
counties and the -State Office of Planning and Programming. This
agency will increasingly'be important, and, in fact, necessary as
more and more 'state and federal funding will be done through a
regional level.
At a time of:inflation where there are budgetary restrictions.
on all people and governments, a.$1.50 per capita is a large increase
over $1.00: It must be`realized,` however, that this is a temporary "
increase in funding since once SMSA classification is gained through
our special census', the:Commission willagain be able to directly
receive federal money-and will na:longer be entirely dependent on.
funding from its member: agencies.

One of the 'mosi''difficultConcepts of Regional Planning,
or, in fact, any intergovernmental organization, is the necessity 1�
for each entity to give up some of its own autonomy and accept a
collective judgement. This concept was accepted by each govern-
mental unit when they signified their desire to participate in the
Regional Planning process. It is indeed inappropriate, if not
improper, for any member agency, whether it be Lone Tree, the County,
or Iowa City to decide unilaterally to;make judgements about specific
budgetary allocations within an approved Work Program Budget.
Rather, under the -authority of the collective judgement, the carrying
out of b� specific programs within a Work Program are the sole
responsibility of the Director of Regional Planning, subject to the
approval of the Planning Commission.
I would like to now address the whole difficult question
of evaluation which has-been raised by members -of the City Council..
We all know and value the competent work that is being done by the
Department of Community Development. ;However, Iowa City does not
exist in a vacuum. What use is 'a comprehensive city land use plan
when there is an ever present possibility that without a county
land use plan, the city will soon besurroundedby sprawling
unplanned development dependent in part, or feeding on, city services.
What value will a Flood.Control Project'on Ralston Creek have,
if the land outside the city limits is used in a manner to increase
run off as fast as the `city, can control it? Without intergovernmental
cooperation through the Commission how can integrated space needs
be met, or joint` ..and cooperative law enforcement, or transit equip-
ment be secured through UDITA, which'is requiring some coordination

of transit function•within_the metropolitan area? An evaluation
of where the city should spend its money for planning is however,
a decision properly laying within the authority of the City Council.
A formal evaluation of the program does, however, raise
some serious questions. First, the City Council should be assured
that a continuing evaluation process does take place within the
Regional Planning; Commission. The staff and Executive Board are
weekly concerned with what we are accomplishing and if we are
setting proper priorities. This alsotakesplace during monthly
Regional Planning Commission meetings. A meaningful evaluation of
future programs in Regional Planning could most appropriately take
place at the time the Work Program -Budget is presented. It might,
in fact, be a proper time to` discuss not only the program but the
process of. Regional Planning.
The problem in any evaluation would be compounded by the
simple fact that Regional Planning is more than a Work Program -
Budget. What dollar, or staff hour, value can be made of the
intangible benefits of ;Regional Planning as administered in
Johnson County? How do you'value increased intergovernmental coopera-
tion? The way the Commission stood fast before the Iowa Crime
Commission in their belief, that human needs are more important than
shot guns? What value'can be placed on our Legislative Monitoring
Service and the impac ton future legislative programs that come
through meetings with our local legislators; or the possibility
that
arises from these., meetings to change"state plans,both through this
local participation and through,`cooperation with other planning
agencies in the state'?.
r '
r _ ,.
to other governments, plans to be undertaken that may effect them
in a significant way?; Is it important to you to have a forum where
discussion of problems common to all ogvernments can be shared and
discussed? _
There is another, much more serious question raised by a
formal evaluation proceedure. If a committee is formed to evaluate
the past programs of Regional Planning, appointments to such a
committee must -be made only -after the; most prudent and cautious
consideration is given, in order to seek out people who can judge
without prejudice. It is also important that there be some means
of containing this committee 'at "all times, and that it operate under
carefully conceived guidelines. It is unfortuante, that in the
history of proceedings such as this, evaluation all to quickly
becomes investigation; which, gathering a momentum of its own, has
the potential to -harm people who have exercised careful.stewardship,
but may, nevertheless be wronged by a biased or carelessly conceived
judgement.
The Executive Baord and the staff of the Regional Planning
Commission are calmly confident that'a fair evaluation would reveal
a sound program carried out by a`dedicated, committed staff

Re: Johnson County..Reg onal Planning Commission Program Design
and Fiscal Year 197•S Program -=Budget.
Dear Mayor'Czarnecki:
Enclosed for ;your information and=review is the Overall Program
Design for the next three Fiscal Years ';;and the annual Work Program-
Iludget for work adopted. by.tl e "Commission f r the coming Fiscal
Year, July l' 197r�:through-June 30, 197.5. As I hope you will see
in your review. of the document; it is a fairly significant and
important workplan. The three -Year concept is highly important
to the Commission and your",jurisdiction as a member. It clearly
states directions for the coming.year and further recognizes that
planning needs must be_;'scheduled.over a period of years in order
to address.them',properly7.
I have characterized the approved.Work Program -Budget as starting
a new era forintergovernmental cooperation in Johnson County. I
feel that ,the`.proj.ects°and planning services offexed For the coming
vear are sensitive.. to the identified.'needs of local governments in
Johnson County: We with see':-the"culmination of a long-term effort
in transportat Ion, :part.icularly in, the metropolitan portion of
Johnson County. Association -with this completion of major planning
effort will be the:re£inement'of ..the metropolitan land use plan.
In the non-metropolitan-part,:o.f the County, we will see the initia-
tion of a major. land use policy development and planning effort.
Along with Ahis >:s` the update of `.-the.;important Park and Recreation
Plan.
The Human Needs area will see the completion of the first compre-
hensive directo•ry.:;and analysis report -''of -human human service for the
county. The planning program°also• includes provision for and
improvement of<informati.on services which assist the Commission
and member agencies in' :the area:of-State..and Federal legislation,
funding, and -Programs., The program further includes the continued
and improved emphasis on grant.greparation and general current
planning services for the:non-metropolitan units of government.

A. Prosect _bescri.pLion
V. A. Prodect�No 584-017. is a parking garage at the
Veterans Administration Hospital in Iowa City, Iowa. The
location- in.--west'-_Iowa 'City adjoins.'the University of Iowa
Hospital campus -and is located south of U.S. Highway 6/218
and <east -of Woolf Avenue.
The purpose 'of this project.is to construct a parking
garage to house 'the vehicles of employees, patients and
visitors who- daily come�to the'Jowa City Station.
At the .time'.of writing this Environmental Impact State-
ment, the project.is entering the final preliminary design
stage: A traffic/parking stud}r. has been completed identifying
• the scope and size of the `parking garage, recommending a
specific site 'on the Iowa.CityStation, and identifying a
cost target:. for the project.
-Th e following etiart�, (Exhibit,A), gives the scope and
size of the parking needs for the V.A. Iowa City Station.
Recent data supports the projected`' outpatient load of 80,000
visits. Exhibi_t�B reflects existing roads, parking and
buildings. Exhibit C:shows.,.,the general site location
recommended for -.the parking structure itself.

The I Iowa- City . 'Station is a triangular
riang-ular shaped plot of
10.85 acresq.- a very minimal, size. f or a major hospital, and
.
contains little open I space. The majority of the site is
occupied .-by.lbiiildings,.roadw'Aays and parking. It is
bounded
on the north by Us S a- H. i ghw4y, 6/2,18 and the main line of the
CRANDIC Railroad, . a f, Airly busy, local carrier. North of the
railroad..is-.a'wdIl developed.residential area located at a

property is bounded:-byWoolf Avenue. rJost of the residential
property: across,1qoo.1f:Avenu.e presently is owned by the Uni-
versity of'Iowa.,To. the;south and east, the V.A. site is
bounded by.the health-care campus of the, University of Iowa.
The immediate , a I djoining property I is utilized for a linear

are a"project to'provde central'air;°conditioning for
thei exisLi g hospital structure'�nd construction of a
nes. boiler pant The air conditioning project consists
of upgrading the existing physical plant through the
provision :of a central air conditioning system and a
central cliff lung structure. "The boiler plant project
is:a basid'replacement'facility necessary because of
the. inaccessibility of the.existing,boiler room for
boiler replacement.,:Coordi.nation beti•:een these projects
is anticipated,"to occur asappropriate to assure a
coordinated development of, the total Station site.
Th'e
existing levels ,of pollution in the project area
are .re,latively`1'ow. ..The Iowa River itself is thought
I to be fairly polluted, however, this pollution
is primarily in,thenature of.agricultural runoff rather
than industrial pollution ;and .the major pollutants are
decomposing organic,.matter , agricultural chemicals and
water -borne siltation particles. The air quality in
the area_is generally good with no major industrial
polluters
C. A; Statement of the Antic ated Environmental Impact
o ' t e Propose ' -Action
The major environmental"impacts anticipated as a result
of the.construction 'of a parking garage at the Iowa City
Station are:

cone;entration .,oi the air pollutants
n:Gtil Linn from rid it -1611a on-si Le pniki.nf;.
3. The increased -utilization
of the land itself.
4., -.Reduction: of'open`space on
the.site.
In terms oL the concentration
of air pollutants, the
proposed acti.on.;will add parking space
for approximately
476 cars to the ':,site, an increase'of
approximately 100
percent. Of this total, 120 -cars
currently are parking
on adjoining University -.property.
The remainder are made
up by increased .demand due to the
growth of the Station
and demand.by.those not presently
afforded on-site parking-.
Because most o'f`:these automobiles
are or will be driven to
the vicinity of, the _site in any event, the overall differ-
ential in-theair;pollutants-.is`not. anticipated to materially
inerease-as a result:of the parking structure. This partic-

centratiori`of automob'ilessln acparking=structure The only
positive statement that can b6.made'regarding this is that
the automobile placedat this point will lessen air pollution
at some other point in the: immediate area. The overall effect
on the`region,,however, will'not`materially change.
In,'_regard to water poLlution; some measures can be taken
to eliminate the''carrying `of,particulant matter into the
storm :drainage:system and on into the Iowa River. These
measures can include -the provisions for appropriate French
drains and sediment'traps'within the drainage system itself.>
`-
It -will -also be- _possib1e., reduce the snow melting chemicals
and any petroleum runoff through design of proper oil inter-
ceptors. Again; the_number f.: c' parking in the region
a parKing garage on ;;'the specific site that were considered.
These -are discussed in the following paragraphs:
1. Construct the garage on a,different site on
the Iowa:city station. :`.Four additional sites
were considered and evaluated in terms of their

is. important •to th"em: ;`Tn" add �ti.'r n; a number
of_personnel reside outside of Iowa City and
their"only method Of. -getting to the V.A. Hos-
pital is, by�private"transportation. Land for
a: remote- lot is not available near the present
site and the;'possibility..of a remote lot would
not solve the needs of visitors and outpatients
and would meet with major resistance on the
part of..per`sonnel
3.
Taking no action was also reviewed. Because of
the growth of the,:Iowa'-City Station and the im-
._
pending major involvement in ambulatory care
brought -"about by -recent Federal legislation,
this did not'seem.to"be a`practical solution.
There is, no ---,alternate method of transportation
for visitors and'outpati'ents utilizing the
facility. Many"of."theemployees and staff,
particularly -those who. live outside of Iowa
City and Coralville, 23 'percent, do not have
access to the 'public -transit system so they
can get -to work no other way than by using the
private automobile.

Progress. Report on the
Community fused Recreation Program for Special Populations
in Iowa City
Prepared by Twyla Misselhorn
All initial surveying has been completed. The project staff
surveyed 49 human service agencies in the Iowa City area as well as
200 various individual members of:special populations in 9 different
categories in, the community and residing in various collective centers
in Iowa City. Thirty-seven .(37) agency :questionnaires were returned.
Ninety-seven per of -the responding agencies indicated their support
of the proposed:community.based recreation Program for special
populations.. Several agencies have. volunteered assistance with our
program, i.e., volunteers, assistance in planning, and general aid.

REPORT'TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL TASK'FORCE ON THE
NEWSPAPER RECYCLING PROGRAM IN EAST LANSING
In November, 1973, newspaper recycling was begun in East Lansing as a joint
operation of the City of East Lansing and the Michigan State University Waste
Control Authority. The City purchased two aluminum tool sheds and installed
them in East Lansing locations. The.Waste Control Authority agreed to service the
sheds and recycle the 'paper biought to these two locations.
A problem then arose with loose'papers being placed in these sheds, located
at Hannah and Marble Schools, To counters at this, plywood doors were installed
on the sheds by the Waste Control,'Authority ,at a cost of $10.00 per shed. Further
problems arose when the sheds began to fill faster than the Waste Control
•
Authority could empty them. This caused the sides of the sheds to bulge and
made the appearance of the sheds unattractive. The Waste Control Authority was
unable to correct this problem until summer. By the end of June, plywood
framing on the inside of the,.,sheds'was completed at a cost to the Waste Control
Authority of $150.00 for each shed. - Additionally, instead of two pickups per
week from the sheds, three pickups `per week were scheduled. The problem with
loose paper is still experienced, but this could be counteracted through some
publicity provided by East Lansing.
From November, 1973, to July 201, 1974, approximately 400,000 pounds of paper
were collected and recycled from these two sheds collectively. This 200 tons of
material is illustrated in Figure.1 forlthe thirty-seven week period. You will
note that for the last three.months we have -averaged fourteen (14) tons per
month from the sheds. The current rrent price for . newspaper sales to the local scrap
dealer is $8.00/ton loose. We are receiving- $35.00/ton baled for our material
at the present time.
X:
0
We estimate that the gross revenue for this thirty-seven week period was
$82289.00. This represents. an average weekly income of $224.00. Our best estimate
for collection, transportation, baling, advertising, administrative overheads, and
rentals is $212.00 per week. This includes.the cost of repair and upkeep of the
sheds.
Recommendations
1. Due to the.decliniagsales price• -of newspaper at present, we recommend an
additional.six month continuation of the cooperative East Lansing—Michigan State
University project.
2. With the net revenues of $444.00, we.propose to purchase two (2) additional
tool sheds and erect them at approved East Lansing locations. These sheds are to
be the property of the City of East Lansing.
3. We request that adequate publicity for this project be given. Specifically, I
the locations o4 the sheds, 'the tonnage we have saved from landfill, the cost
savings in colle.-tion, transportation, and disposal of solid waste to the taxpayers
of East Lansing should be publicized. In addition, the public should be notified
that the program is facilitated when papers are bundled prior to being placed in
the sheds.

Introduction
Program Statement: Recycling Program
November 27, 1973
Michigan State University has had a modest recycling program for two
years. The program has grown dramatically and now employs thirty students,
recycling up to twenty tons'of`material per week. The revenue will exceed
$6,900.00 for Fall quarter, 1973 (see Table l). The net income will be more
than $3,000.00 (see Table 2). The value of recycled fibers has increased
enormously:

The forecast through 1980 predicts that the shortage of raw materials in the
paper and carton industry will continue and the market value will be optimistic.
We presently collect these materials.:around campus and haul them in wire
baskets to a semi=trailer provided by the Michigan Carton Company of Battle Creek.
The baskets weigh about 1,000 pounds when full and must be double -stacked into
® the semi -trailer. Twice a week the trailer is filled by our efforts and hauled
away. No indoor space -.is currently available to house these papers or transfer

them to the truck. During inclement weather,_ the operation is inefficient and
hazardous at best.
Proposal
Michigan State University,; mindful of the national shortages of fiber, the
advantages of reducing fuel, .:costs, and .the 'desire to implement new and progressive
programs, should enforce a maximum recycling effort as a desirable University -
wide programa We estimate that less than l% of the available secondary fibers are
now being collected and recommend an expansion of the present operation. The
Michigan Carton Company presently uses between 500 and 1,000 tons of recycled
paper materials per day. They normally, have a thirty -day supply of materials
® on hand stored in their warehouse. Due to the extreme shortages, they have less
than a 24-hour supply of material on hand. ;They have been buying fibers from as
far away as Denver, Colorado's
Phase I
Michigan Carton Company of Battle Creek is interested in financing on a
lease -purchase basis's building,;.a baler, and a forklift truck. Such a program
would involve a capital cost of approximately thirty -thousand dollars ($30,000)
with debt retirement`within'three years to Michigan Carton Company. At present
market value, the differential of baled materials and increased anticipated
volume will pay for the facility, and equipment. The building, of a design not
yet determined, is to be located near the old M.S.U. incinerator area. We
® would agree on a contractural basis to sell our fiber to them. in return, we
could anticipate a minimum "floor" price to be negotiated each year and the

guarantee that they would purchase all paper we send to them during the life of a
minimum three year contract. (See Tables 3 and 4.) We would organize additional
academic and administrative areas, for newspaper and cardboard recycling collection.
No additional labor would be required.
Phase II
The potential fiber available on campus, has been estimated at 5,000 tons
per month. We are presently recycling approximately 72 tons per month. In
Phase II we would begin a program of collecting office wastes such as mimeo-
graph paper, letterhead bond, and telephone directories. This would be an
expansion of existing operations and involve additional collection points.
• It is primarily a source separation of materials on a voluntary basis with
collection and sale by our Waste Control Authority program. Essentially, this
means that the university community -would be asked to use separate waste
baskets in selected, high volume paper areas.We would propose to lease a
larger baler, lease or purchase conveyor belts and material handling equipment
and develop a pilot program whereby selected buildings' waste would be sorted at
this building and recycled. This would be tried on an experimental basis.
Grounds Department, Salvage, -Physical Plant, Purchasing and other appropriate
departments would be asked to,help design, operate, and facilitate this project.
We would estimate an additional fifty paid.student laborers to undertake the
operation. (See Table 5)

Phase III
We anticipate that compactor garbage trucks will be routed by "clean"
buildings such as the administrative buildings, academic and classroom buildings,
print shop, etc., to collect discarded materials which are essentially paper
products. The mate I rial would be dumped on'the floor of our building and sorted.
This post -consumer sorting of,'fibers :.in the amount of 20% (or 500 tons/month)
would reduce the number of trips to.landfills. The cost of operation of compactor
trucks is very high and with the current fuel crisis it is desirable to reduce
this expense.
The use of University full-time employees I would be required as a result
of shifting from landfill to predominately recycling. The fibrous materials
would be sorted, baled, and sold. If feasible, sorting of ferrous metals
and glass would also o - ccur. Earnings would accrue to the University (see Table 6)
and savings in hauling and landfill charges would be evident. We believe this
is the ultimate in "waste control...And utiliz.ation."

TO: Ray S. Wells, City -Manager
FROM: George R. Bonnett, I.Acting,Director of Public Works
RE: Citizen Complaint
in response to your inquiry concerning the hole on
Lexington Street adjacent to Dr. January's home we found
that approximately_ :2;_feet "west'of the west curb line a
hole approximately 2 feet deep. The hole was caused by
the erosion of..water flowing `over. .the top of the inlet
which was blocked due to a:collapsed pipe just west of the
curb line. We. -have replaced:the'12 inch -:line with a new
15 inch and have rebuilt approximately 55 feet of curb to
prevent reoccurrence of..this problem.
I am'somewhat puzzled by the complaint lodged by the
residents of.6th_and I Streets,-concerning'erosion. In
visiting with the Street Superintendent I find that the
complaint was lodged bythe resident;.'of 1815 I Street but
it did not concern erosion; but rather water runoff. Basically
the resident's complaint was that new housing construction in
the area had; blocked what was,
a drainage channel causing water
to pond on her garden. Mr. Dvorsky.indicated to the resident
that this was a civil problem between the property owners.
There is some erosionat the south end of 6th Avenue,
however, Mr. Dvorsky stated that he had received no complaints
concerning this erosion. We do, however feel that it is
severe enough torequire attention "and we plan to correct it
with rip rap from the curb repair project.
If you have '.any questions concerning the above items
Please don't hesitate to contact

Sign ordina1. nce to be'
discussed at meeting
Discussion of proposed amendments to the city sign
ordinance will continue Tuesday at the Lawrence City
Commission meeting.
Tuesday's meeting will begin at 2 p.m. in the fourth floor
meeting room of city hall, the First National Bank building,
Ninth and Massachusetts.
Commissioner Barkley Clark proposed a variety of sign
ordinance changes several weeks ago including phasing out
of flashing signs -and over -size nonconforming signs.
CITY MANAGER Buford Watson will present reports
on the Naismith Ditch greenbelt, Edgewood Homes street
lights, and the proposed_ Kansas Power and Light Co. rate
increase request to the Kansas Corporation Cmmission.'
Watson will sugest that city crews this fall and winter
construct dirt paths in the Naismith area and clear the
stream bed. He intends to recommend the city not assume
maintenance of the Edgewood Homes' lights, but will sug-
gest continued financial assistance, in other ways, he con-
tinued.
In a memo to city commissioners, Watson said the
proposed KPL rate increase will have a special effect on the
city government, raising the electric bill about 25 per
cent. KPLis seeking to have each separate meterfor the city
be considered one biliiffg location, and not allowing-4beetty-
to consider itself one use, thus reaching the lower rates for
bulk use. The school district will be similarly affected.
WATSON WILL seek permission to oppose that portion
of the rate increase request before the corporation commis-
sion.
On another matter, resurfacing Sixth Street from Wis-
consin to Vermont, Watson said today the state highway
commission will give the city $3,000 to assist -in the esti-
mated $33,000 project. The city requested $18,000 in aid,
however, the state budget was tight, Watson explained. He
said he was grateful for the $50,000 in state aid to.be used for
adding a fifth lane to 23rd Street and not annoyed at the
lower allocation for Sixth Street.

WILL. J. HAYEK- ' ATTORNEYS'AT LAW.AREA CODE
Attached is a lists of pending litigation involving the City. This
list includes ,all,litigated items in which the City is a party but does not
include case s-__ are being handled solely by our, insurance carriers,
small claims cases either for or;against the City in District Court, and
routine. ordinance: enforcement";prosecutions. It should be noted that the
last of these items, routine ordinance enforcement prosecutions, involves
considerable,time;and-work by:thIe assistant city attorneys who prosecute
these cases in the courts. These:cases"upon occasion involve appeals to
the District ,Court and,';on onesoccasion this year, an appeal to the Supreme
Court. '`Every effort isbeing'made to make the prosecutions of these cases
efficient .fair, and _prompt in,order that the important work of the Depart-
ment of; public Safety and' other,-departm.ents. involved with the enforcement
of ordinances -is carried out.,. ;.,.
Several cases have been disposed'of during the first seven months
of 1974: by the regular and speciai"counsel for the City. These cases
include Alb erhasky'v. City, Smith v: City,Olson v. City, Douglas v. City,
Amerex v. - City, and Baculis, V. City. This same period of time saw the
filing of seye_ral new law" suits against the 'City. Although I would like to be
able to. report that a much greater ,number.: of cases have finally been
disposed of, : I am. satisfied -that we are now exercising better control over
our litigation. case load"by improved; record keeping systems, and most
importantly,by. greater : delegation of responsibility to the City's assistant
city attorneys. -This delegation of. -.responsibility is, necessitated by the
large number -of ;cases .pending against. the City at any one time.
I
The work aril responsibility being given to the assistant city
attorneys, as iridic above, means that the City must have capable and
imaginative attorneys occupying the position of lAssistant City Attorney.
We have, I -feel, been fortunate in the: staff that we have had and now have.
Unfortunately this year Mr. -,Braun and.Ms. Vollertsen left the City for
work elsewhere.'' However, .I feel that we -have been most fortunate in
having Tony Kushnir and Bob Bowlin.join the legal department staff as
assistant city attorneys Because of the ixrportance'of the work being
handled by the assistant city attorneys` -it is`:essential that turnover in
legal department personnel be reduced as -much as possible. I think that
steps to accomplish this iiclude.`employing persons who are genuinely
interested in.municipal and administrative law, providing those persons
with opportunities for professional growth and development, and providing
compensation that is competitive with the private sector.
During the first part of .1974 several -research projects were
initiated and carr' d:out by the legal department. These projects include
the neighborhood parks study, the' marijuana study, and work in the
landlord -tenant area. In 'connection with the landlord -tenant study I am
pleased to report that pursuant to'.Council authorization, a law student
has been employed =to work with Mr. Kushnir in putting together a report
on the authority, of,the Cityin this -area and to draftsomepossible legislation.
The demands for legal services have! increased quite considerably.
I feel confident;:'however,'that in the foreseeable future we should be able
to handle this work4oad w,ithoiut additional staff. This. will result from
increasing efficiency of personnel -due to
'greater experience in the area of
municipal law, . and -from the adoption'of. more efficient and effective
techniques. Also, a great deals:of Bob Bowlin!s time has been taken up with
the Human -Relations Commission. Once a human relations coordinator is
employed by the City this°demand.on'Mr..Bowlin's time should be con-
siderably reduced by switching the investigative responsibilities over to
the coordinator.
The coming: months will see increased efforts by Mr. Kushnir, Mr.
Bowlin and myself in such' areas as . Code enforcement, in conjunction with
City staff, and implementation of the State's new Home Rule provisions.
In the longer run, I -hope that we, -can, develop a sufficiently effective legal
department that we: can spend much more'timethan we are now in the area
of preventative legal counseling: Rather than reacting to crisis after crisis
we can, through -review of'City,procedures and activities, prevent the
problems from developing- 'in the, first place

SATE, August 2, 1974
TO; John Hayek, City Attorney`'
FROM: Tony Kushnir Asst.; City -Attorney
RE: Regulating Open Burning
In regard to regulating,open:burning, there is presently an ordinance
restricting the of; open,fires'an Iowa.City It is Ordinance Number 2711,
which incorporates the'Uniform Fire Code:_ This ordinance was adopted on April 9,
1974, and sets forth .the minimum requirements -for fire protection. The specific
sections dealing with open burning,are,27.101 through 27.116 and Appendix E.
There are presently two proposed'ordinances that deal with open burning.
They are the'Open Burning Ordinance and°:the""Air Pollution Control Ordinance. The
major differences between the existing ordinance and the proposed ordinancesare
as follows:
The Open Burning Ordinance, prohibits open'.burning except in six instances:
recreational`purposes'r disposal. of;dangerous.materials, land clearing, grass and
leaf disposal, instructional= -purposes, and destroying diseased trees. In each
of these instances except for the;recreational=- 11and leaf disposal instances, per-
mission from the 'Fire:_Chief _is required -. By the terms of this Ordinance the open
burning of trash or rubbish;is prohibited.
Such -is not'the.case. with the. -`existing ordinance. The Uniform Fire Code in
section 27.101 W- allows for'the maintenance of any "bonfire or rubbish fire"
once a permit"is secured from the'"Fire Chief In (c) of that section, the Fire
Chief may refuse.to allow such fires when atmospheric conditions make such fires
hazardous. Section 27:'101(a) makes no" differentiation as to the different types
of open fires and requires .a"permit�in"ail instances of .open fires. In the
following sections, the Uniform Fire:Code regulates the attendance, location,
maintenance and hours:of open burning._. In addition Appendix E regulates open
fires in areas that make., it abnormally difficult of suppressing fires. No such
detailed regulations are found in". -the Open Burning ordinance. The proposed ordi-
nance prodides for.attedance ;at;leaf'burnings;during such periods as may be
authorized by City.Council.resolution but, ;does not"impose any restriction as to
location of the fire. Attendance, -,location,.,maintenance and hours of all other
open fires is not provided for in•the Open Burning Ordinance. In addition, no
standards are set'in the proposed ordinance as to the Fire Chief's granting per-
mission for an open fire.
The Air Pollution` Control ordinance:liketthe Open Burning ordinance makes a
general prohibition of open: fires except -in certain instances. It essentially
incorporates all'the- provisions-of-the"Open Burning ordinance in regard to what
types of open fires require permits, what:-types`,do not; but unlike the Open
Burning ordinance, it`sallows all types ofopen`Ifires provided that permits be
secured. It also ;establishes`guidelines'for the issuance or denial of permits
for those fires that require permits This ordinance requires permits for all
fires except those -used for'cooking food or -for recreational purposes and those

fires set in performance of -an official duty of any public officer for instruc-
tional purposes, - :.-prevention`-of fire hazaxds,:.and protection of public health.
See section V.D.2.,3.,4. In deciding whether to grant a permit the issuing
officer must be satisfied,that certain conditions exist. These are set forth
in Section V.D.(l). In addition the permit may be limited by various conditions
to protect other property and persons from the effects of the burning.
The proposed Air Pollution'Control,Ordinance regulations on open burning
modify the regulations set,.up by the Uniform'Fire Code. The proposed ordinance,
besides changing -the permit procedure, establishes specific standards as to
maintenance'of open fires , For example, there are various standards and tests
set forth in the ordinance'for determining -.what constitutes offensive smoke.
No such standards are foundin'the Uniform Fire Code. Although the Air Pollution
Control Ordinance is not as specific as the.Uniform Fire Code as to location
and hours of open burning,'the proposed ordinance allows for special conditions
to be imposed upon each permit as circumstances may allow.
It is my opinion that.of,the ,three. ordinances, the Air Pollution Control Ordi-
nance would be preferred...The open Burning ordinance is vague as to standards
and not as comprehensive as the Air Pollution Control Ordinance. The Uniform Fire
Code makes permits:mandatory for all open burning including such fires as por-
table barbeque grills and campfires. This provision seems unenforceable. The Air
Pollution Control ordinance makes this differentiation and yet is not as vague
as the Open Burning Ordinance.

RE: Proposed :Air.' Pollution Control-Ordinance and Proposed Open Burning Ordinance
In conju�A
nction"with`the Cityttorney's report on the Open Burning Ordinance and
the Air Pollution Control Ordinance;',I"did research on costs that would be involved
with the enforcement of the Air Pollution Control Ordinance; specifically.
My discussions withofficials at. the. University's Environmental Health Services
and the State Department`of Environmental Quality indicated the following:
1. The operation of :.equipment and enforcement necessary for Section
V. A-," Visible Emissions, would only involve a short period of
training ,for the ro
'City's designated contl officer. The State
Department of EnvironmentalQuality holds training sessions twice
a year for pollution control officers These individuals are cert-
ified'by the state after completing-the training program. No cost
would`be.involved'fora City.
In order for testing against pollution violators to be held valid
in a court"of law, the pollution control officer must be certified.
2. The operation of equipment and enforcement necessary for Section V.
,B., "Emission of Particplate'Matter " and Section V. C., "Emissions
,of 'Gases Vapors„nd aOdors,";involves investment in pollution muni-
toring equipment Equipinent.,inveatment is directly related to the
level of, enforcement the Citywishes to maintain.
DEQ officials indicated that costs cam be cut':considerably if the ordinance
contains;a clause, puttingthe burden of proof on 'the party or parties suspected of
an ordinance violation'
DEQ officials indicated that'. two types-of equipment are:usually involved in a
local monitoring:effort...'The first is,a High; Volume .Air Sampler which operates simi-
lar to a vacuum cleaner, collecting particulate matter,om a filter pad. Iowa City
would need four of. these samplers; costing,approximitely $36o 'each.
A Tape Sampler would
insbe another piece of ::necessary equipment. This is a portable
trument used:=for testing spedifiC problem areas,..coating approximately $1,000.
Additional equipment -'for monitoring carbon monoxide or sulphur dioxide ranges
in cost from $1,%000 to_$6,000 depending, on the City's desired enforcement level.
This is not.necessary`..equipaient,_however.
Training of a City .pollution control officer for.operating equipment dealing
with particulate matter could bearraged either.4hrough'the University's Environ-
mental Health Services or"the State DEQAswithvisible emission monitoring, an
individual from the Fire Department could serve as-`the local pollution control officer.
