HomeMy WebLinkAbout1973-03-20 CorrespondenceThe need for an Iowa City ordinance concerninL school
buses has been brought to our attention. At this point'
in our course of action we would like to inform you on
the matter.
Z+At present, the state law of Iowa reouires any vehicle
to coma to a complete halt when warning; lights are flash—
ing on a school bus in the process of loading or unloading
school children. This law does not include residential
or business districts dithin the city unless provided for
by city ordinance. Iowa City has no such ordinance.
In a meeting or, March 2, with Public Safety Director
Dave Epstein, Richard Lahr, City Engineer Mike Hunzinger,
and Leu Negas, the matter was discussed. Objections to
the proposal were considered. One, children may become
confused by the different procedures of school buses and
City buses, Two, ,.hildrenmay acqui_e a faleae sense ol:
security that ,vehicles will, ir_'fact; stop for them.
The response to these is twofold. First, the classroom
can aid in educating; the children, who are predominately
junior high and high school are, on the proper loadint
and unloadintgprocedures 'of'school and city buses." Also,
Coralville dogs require, vehicles to stop. A'similar
ordinance in Iowa City would provide uniformity for
_ adult drivers who commute between Iowa City and Coralville.
Second, under ,the present law, children must cross the
'street at their own risk.' Passing this ordinance could
cut down on this risk. Perhaps the ordinance could include
a provision reuuiring bus drivers to motion the children
to cross after traffic has halted.
Mr. Epstein supports gur actions and Mr. Hunzinger has
no objections concerning the traffic flow. Mr. Lahr_
assured us it is possible to reroute school buses if-
necessai-y to comply with such an ordinance. lith this
in mind, we ask you to seriously consider the passage of
such an ordinance.
Sincerely,
Candace Born

It was agreed that the meeting would be thrown open for
general'discussionwithout attempting to keep accurate
minutes..
The`most troublesome point was the 3" house drain, The
E
Plumbing Boardfeltthat it was not large enough nor
cheap enough to be..satisfactory or necessary. The Appeals
Board felt that HUD had alreadydecided the,question.
After much' more discussion it was moved by Max Selzer and
seconded by Ben Donat,that: "The Uniform' Plumbing Code
with the changes proposed by the State Building Code
.Committee be accepted with the following additiontoSection 403(a). No,more than two stools or other six
unit 'traps ;on any three inch' house drain." The vote
was unanimous.
It was moved by Joe:Connell and seconded,by Charles Ruppert
that the ,meeting. be' adjourned.

Gentlemen:
I'am writing to request that twice each year the maintenance department
paint dividing lines on the city streets at intersections which have
left -turn -lanes or other special traffic control lanes.
At a number of intersections the introduction of clearly marked left -
turn -lanes has done a lot to bring about smoother traffic flow during
rush hours. But about this time of year the ,lines which indicate the
special lanes become, almost impossible to see, and drivers, either out
of ignorance or fear, revert to two-lane driving. One recent afternoon,
for, example, at the intersection of Muscatine and Court streets, the
southeast -bound traffic was held up by a car preparing to make a left
turn. from Muscatine tn, rn„rt' e,A �_�
==LL a �Uuai,oi 1} - cars "waited behind him
until he was able to, make his turn; he had positioned himself on the
line separating the thru-lane and the left-turnaane so that only ,one
lane of traffic could move. '_During those months when the lines at this
intersection are clearly visible,traffic flows smoothly at this Inter-
section because all drivers can tell at a glance that there are separate
thru- and left -turn -lanes.
The downtown intersections on Burlington street are other intersections
which need always to have the lanes clearly marked. If there is a
double left -turn -lane for west -bound Burlingtori,street traffic at
the Riverside' Drive intersection (as many drivers believe there is) that
information should be clearly evident on the appropriate lanes at all
times.
I realize, that the cost Of painting all street lines more than once
a year would be prohibitive, but I believe that painting lines at
selected, heavily -traveled intersections would be comparatively in-
expensive and would insure that traffic would flow as smoothly as
Possible throughout the year.
Sincerely,

Request is made to pave the alley south of Bowery St. between
South Dodge and Lucas streets.' The traffic is heavy and the
maintenance of the gravel poor. Some of the property owners
abutting the alley have repeatedly added gravel but it stili
remains a problem. Ib is my understanding that this area was
once a small lake. This would account for a very poor drainage
situation that presently exists but could be rectified. if the alley
were paved. You are no -doubt well aware of the concern of the
residents on Lucas street with, every' heavy rain.
Your consideration will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Honorable Mayor C. L. Brandt and Members of the Iowa City Council
City Hall
Iowa City, Iowa
Gentlemen:
In the year 1970 the Iowa Concrete Paving Association initiated a municipal award to
encourage high standards of workmanship and quality construction in Portland cement
concrete paving. By the apparent enthusiasm shown by members of city councils and
g• g that
engineers throughout the State of Iowa and members of our association, it appearsa
this should be made an annual event.
There are certain guide lines which we follow. The projects are rated by a city engineer
from the State.of Iowa, a paving contractor's representative, the Portland Cement
Association paving engineer, and the manager of the Iowa Concrete Paving Association.
The following items are considered in the award and the maximum points allowed in each
category are shown below.
Rideability - 25 points Concrete strength - 5 points
Edge alignment - 5 points Concrete air content - 5 points
Construction of joints - 5 points Thickness of concrete - 5 points
Surface texture - 5 points Contractor's job management &
Curb alignment - 5 points job prosectuion'- 25 points
Project cleanup - 5 points Contractor's safety - 10 points
Complexity in construction - 10 points
From the above rating system you can see that other items are taken into consideration
other than visual items. We feel this is also important. 'During the 1972 construction season
there were approximately 60 cities who constructed Portland cement concrete paving in
the state. Of these 60 projects Awere considered for an award. The City of Iowa City
was considered for its project. The City Engineer was in charge of design and inspection.
The contractor was Metro Paving of Iowa City. In addition nominations for the award
were made in the cities of Council Bluffs, Mason City, Belmond, Dubuque, and Waterloo.
The winner of the award was named at our 1973 workshop held in Des Moines, Iowa on
March 7th. For the first time we had a tie. The joint winners were the Allied Construction
Company for the City of Mason City, and the Irving F. Jensen Company for the City of
Waterloo.

At the last meeting of the Johnson County Commission.on Environmental.
Quality heldFebruary1,,'1973, there was discussion'on the problem
of`litteritig-in the'County'particularly on the access roadsleading,..
to the new Iowa City land, fill. Complaints from residents' living
along these access roads and visual evidence of littering have
prompted us to take the following..action:
1:'. Ke urge strict enforcement of'the existing littering
laws, both City and County.', City ordinancesthat: prohibit
littering include: 3 42.3,.Part C and 7.14.4. State ordi-
nances that prohibit' littering <include:' 455B.`97 and 4558:98`.
2. Due to the large amount of litter that is lost from
uncovered transporting ,vehicles- example private contract
haulers and urban renewal haulers--we urge strict law
enforcement`of the following existant statutes:
City Codes: 3.42.4 Part C.states that "every
vehicle shall be-equipped with a permanently
attached cover, either of rigid construction or
a fabric material," and 7.18.13 which prohibits
the hauling of trash in uncovered vehicles.
s'
3. We recommend notices be published in the media stating,
the City and County will enforce these laws and that after
a reasonable time that the offenders will.be'prosecuted to
the full extent of the law. Also,, we recommend that signs
be erected on the approaches to the Iowa City land fill
stating that littering laws will be enforced

Gentlemen:
What has happened to the stiffer Q) Animal Control Ordinance? Many
people I talk to say that it is not :north the paper it is written on.
There are more dogs running at large than there ever has been.
As a member of the citizens committee who prepared the new Animal
Control Ordinance for passage, I am very much disappointed with the
enforcement. The problems I have in the area in which I work will
varify the above statement. This past week I had to cut off mail delivery
to one address because of four or five dogs running at large and giving
trouble upon approaching the house. The owners would not tie up their
dogs but have installed a mailbox by the front sidewalk. The dogs are
still running at large in a three or four block radius in violation of
Sec. VI PP. 1 of the Ordinance. Also, I have at a number of times seen
one of these dogs accompanying its owner unleased in violation of
Sec. VI PP. 1.
It is disgusting to go to the downtown business district and have
to wra1: -round dogs running at; large, in violation of Sec. VI PP. 3, so
you can transact your businees. PY- wife has actually witnessed dog
fights in the downtown business district. why must this be allowed?
I have seen a lawn enforcement officer, marling autos for the
purpose of checking parking violatiuns, go past a pack of dogs running
at large and do nothing about it. It seems to me that all he would
have to do is use his radio and have the Animal Control Officer come to
the area and ti,- to do something about the situation.
I realise that apprehending narking violaters is part of law en-
forcement and Aust be done. However, I think that danage'done to Manan
beim-,s and ..' C:i trt;f by dogopis ,just as W oN ant if not more i, or.Sant
than ticke�:Lnj an over parted &.11to.
Tn rrr opinion the contents of the Animal Cont:'ol. Ordinance has not
had enough ;rubiici:iv. It was published in the paper in very fine print
wrhich most poordo probably did not read. The important parts shol.ld be
published periodically- in readable type and then fonowed un with ntri&,
eni'orcoment and penalties for violators.
I an. r•^rz7,r to hoar people say again and again that it doeo no good
to complain the City will not do anything any,ray. I think eve"y cffori;
•'1110104 ;)i'. 3?.: c Yo strictly o „e-rce ViditJ.-nee aiid pr6ve t0 :I:e
citizens of Iowa City that their City Government does care and enforcement
of this %dinance is possible.
1
A few years ago we were thankful for a crack -dot -in on noisy motercycles
and it corrected a serious situation. Ghy not a crack -da -m on violaters
of the Pot Animal Ordinance (this includes cats)? It is deplorable whan
a mailearrier irmist carry an axe handle with him for protection from dogs
while doing his work. This actually was done this past year by one
carrier in a certain area of our city.
I hope that -Wie efforts of the citizen's comaittee -::ho worked on the
Ordinance was not wasted. Some of us took time from other things because
we felt we were doing our city a valuable service. Now let .us see the
results of our efforts in a strict enforcement of the Pet Animal Control
Ordin,nnec.

Dear Mayor Brandt:
It has been reported to this office that a move is 'afoot to
eliminate the Civil Defense Organization in the State of Iowa.
This would in all probability eliminate much of the Federal
assistance we have been getting and leave Iowa City and Johnson
County without the volunteer organizations we now have.
Therefore, it is requested that the City Council of Iowa City
J
write letters to Governor Robert Ray and members of the Iowa
Legislature, urging that the Civil Defense Organization not
be eliminated, but instead be strengthened so it, can do a
better job
Putting this program under the National Guard, as is being
proposed, would without'a doubt slow down outside assistance
in case of a disaster,, since they can react only on order of.
the Governor. our present organization does not wait for a
Governors order before it swings into action.
Any assistance you can render will be appreciated.
Sincerely

six years. 'I hope 'you agree it is truly an outstanding
institution.

persons in the seven -county area Kirkwood serves, I per-
sonally would be honored to talk with the men and women
whom they've elected as their governmental leaders.
Please feel free to visit our campus, or arrange for group

REPORT OF HIRINGS BY CITY OF ,IOWA CITY FOLLOWING 'r
IADOPTION`OF THE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORIII*IITY,POLICY AND
Af FTRMATIVR ACTION PROGRAM (AUGUST 1 1972THROUf,11 DECEMBER 31, 1972)
Prepared by City Manager's Office for the Iowa City Iluman Relations Commission,
March 1, 1973.
The City Council of the City of Iowa City passed the Equal Employment Opportunity
_ August
1
1972. Since
Policy and Affirmative Action Program (ESOP AAP) effective g ,
that time, the staff has put much effort into implementation of that program.,
One provision of the EEOP-AAP requires the City Manager'to provide a periodic
progress report to the Human Relations Commission regarding the progress of
the program. This report covers all positionvacancies which were filled from
August 1, 1972, through ,December 31, 1972.
Since we'.began the program in August, we have hired a total of.thirty-six new
employees who work twenty or ,more hours per week, plus two, transfers from other
positions. Of the thirty-six new employees, four qualify under the 'definition
in the EEOP-AAP as a minority group member and twelve were females. Forty-four
;_percent of the employees"hired since August are ;members of a minority'group'or
Ih^'actual-breakdown also shows two?women being hired for traditionally
'61G NVIIIG II• V'
male positions plus one 'oriental and three blacks. From August 1 to December 31,
the personnel;staff:processed a.total of 773 applications.
r;
A total of 113 advertisements were placed in order to' fill the thirty-six positions.
Of the advertisements, nineteen were placed in black newspapers. In addition,
a notice that the City was actively engaged in an EEOP-AAP was posted in order'
for the employees to be advised of the program; and notices were also sent to each
of the agencies on the attached "list. When a list of the present openings is sent
to the minority agencies ,`the same list is posted throughout the City for employee
notification.
`Not in'cluded,in:this report isthe library hiring. The hiring done by the library
has not been recorded since the library operates under'a separate administrative
order to be assured the
board. Separate arrangements will need to be made in
library's hiring practices are in compliance with EEOP-AAP,;.and records are now
being kept on these positions.
The Recreation Division has a large number of part-time employees, some of which
work as little as one hour per week. -For this reason, the hiring done by the
Recreation Division is reported separately; except in that people hired who work
regularly over twenty hours per week or hired for permanent full-time positions
will be included in the positions filled table:
In the Recreation Division, there were 180 applicants and 43 persons hired. There
were 98 people interviewed by the first-line' supervisors. Four minority group.
members applied with none being hired.
