Patrick Ebite Re: Bus Service to South Riverside Shopping Area This letter is submitted on behalf of Montgomery Ward and Company, Wardway Plaza Merchants, South and Riverside Shopping Ar their employees and their customers. ea Merchants, ants, e re uesting that the _ _Iowa City, City Council consider the 'addition of bus service to the South Riverside Shopping Area including the Wardway,Shopping Plaza. r� —Sw . eu ls request upon the followini; facts: 1. 3bO people requested bus service to this area'in a petition that was presented before the Council on'Sept. ;lU, 1972.'-' 9. 14any customer requests received by merchants in the shopping area. 3. Many employee requests for bus service from emplo yees who work in the area. 4. ,Many requests received in Mr. Pappas,s office regarding the need for additional service in this area. We feel based on these many requests that there is a need for bus service in the South Riverside Shopping Area. In addition we feel that we have been slighted since Sept. 1971 when the bus service was established. There are six ma'or'sho J Aping areas in the City. Five of these areas are served by direct bus service to their doors. Only one--l-lardway Plaza and the South Riverside Area do not have bus service. lle feel that this oversight should be corrected. We want to compliment the City on its fine bus service system and we hope at a time when they are considering the'gereral budget Chat they would consider the expansion that we request. !9e would urge you to at least give it, a six month trial period and see if the service is warranted for the area.

Senate St. Paul Lutheran Chapel 404 East Jefferson Iowa City, Iowa 52240 March 23, 1973 Mayor Tim Brandt C/o Civic Center Iowa City, Iowa 52240, Dear Mr. Mayor, The city is to be commended for its policy of allowing; people to park in bicycle lanes and in "No Parking" lanes on Sunday mornings when the con- centration of churches on the near north side and the low level of traffic on the streets makes such an arrangement quite feasible. As I am sure you have heard many times, the parking problem `is a very difficult one. This past Sunday I and a number of my visitors and members were informed by, way of a ticket that these special provisions stop, at Gilbert Street which is the property immediately to 'the west of St. Paul..'In other words, the special provisions apply up to where our church begins.'- We have been `strug .00lin oo .a rh. eA-1-.f, problem ourselvesaltd.have recently purchased at' -no small sum an apartment house and`had it moved in order that we might.accom modate our worshippers. We would, appreciate also receiving',the same consid- eration that our neighbors to the west receive, namely that parking,be allowed from Gilbert to the east at least one block,'possibly two for worship- pers at St. Paul. This is because to the west of Gilbert -the members of 'St: Mary's fill in both sides of ',the street. In fact, they ,come beyond Gilbert.' It also would be appreciated if you would at least consider allowing for that brief period on Sunday morning parking on at least one side of Gilbert. Thank you for your sympathetic ear and understanding of our problem. Sincerely yours, The Rev. W.E. Eckhardt Pastor of St. Paul Lutheran Chapel 404 East Jefferson Iowa City, Iowa WE/kh • Rev. W. E. Eckhardt St. Paul Lutheran Chapel 404 E. Jefferson Iowa City, Iowa 52240 Gear Rev. Eckhardt: The City Council received your letter concerning the parking situation in the no -parking lanes on Jefferson Street for Sunday, services at their March 27, 1973 meeting. The Council discussed your request that cars be allowed to park on Jefferson Street east of, Gilbert. nnA for beief periods on Sunday morning on onee side off Gilbert Street. The Council asked the staff to review your request and submit a recommendation back to the City Council as soon as Possible., We will plan to be back in touch with you concerning your request as soon as Council has made a specific decision as to parking on Sunday morning in the two areas you suggested.

Palmer Administrative Assistant tY • • •568 23'Mar ch,1973 Iowa .City Council Civic Center Iowa City, Iowa Sirs: I have just learned, about the new plan of paying city dog taxes for three years "in advance. I am astounded. We pay our insurance, property tax, everthing, in fact, for one year. Dogs get lost, stolen, killed--are much more unpredictable than cars, houses, or humans. Our Poor old mongrel is seventeen. While -I am sure she'd be thrilled to have us think she'd be ;around for three years more, the odds are heavy against it. I understand the idea of this is that it will ease the situation of dogs running loose and not-being taxed. These dogs belong to people who couldn't care less and, if.you slap it on to us for TEN years in advance_ thA,_ oit�atior. ,rill be the same. Law abiding owners will pay while the others will kepronerty paying or caring: We worked hard to be property otmers-going without all the niceties of life, such as food stamps`and'welfare. Noir we can't refuse to pay our dog tax as a sign of objection because you can add it to our property tax. " Even having a three year rabies shot is of no value to us as we must have one every year to take our dog into Canada on vacation. It is very disconcerting to our dog when the free ones. sniff through the fence and sneer at her because she is taxed, shot, and confined. But, I tell her there will always be guys in white hats and guys in black hats, but do.you have to make it so hard to wear a white hat? Please, council members, dos something realistic--just for a change. Mrs. Johnnie C.

As an advisory commission to the Council', we have been asked to give them our recommendation in re- gard to this proposed legislation. The commissioners feel that we have limited,knowledge about the existing tenant -landlord practices in this com- munity, the problems that arise in the tenant -landlord re- lationship and the community•s opinion as`to whether there is a need for a City Code and/or department to handle the problems. In order to inform ourselves of citizen views on this matter,.we have scheduled a public meeting to be held Wed- nesday, 28 March, 1973 at 7:30 p.m., in the Council Chambers of the Civic Center.We hope that you and members of the City Council can be present and share your views with us: Copies of the proposed ordinance can be read at the Civic Center. If you have any questions about the meeting, please call me at 337-7032. Sincerely, Mrs. Helen Hamer Commissioner Iowa City Housing Commission hih/lah If. you will.check, you will find that the City inspectors have avoided contact with any property in this block whereas other properties in Iowa City are inspected on a regular basis. If they did inspect the properties in this block, the report of deficiencies would raise serious questions of liability for you and forme. An indication of the serious- ness of the :matter might be to advise you that I am currently' unable to secure any insurance on the premises. March 29, 1973 Mr. Allen J.

The Council did, however, refer your letter to the Parks and Recreation Commission for review and report back with rec- ommendations to the Council. The Commission will undoubtedly take up this subject at one of their upcoming meetings and it will therefore be discussed by them.

The Des Moines City -Clerk spent about three hours showing metheirprocedures.

Then each item is cross indexed, by number in a strip index frame. Des Moines binds a xeroxcause copy py of the whole Council folder as a J ournallof Proceedings do: not publish condensed minutes. 'Their - also compos Ordinance Book is also composed of bound xeroxed copies.of ordinances with the Clerk's certificate of dates of. publication. :These changes would reduce work load our in typing at .least.
