clusion of everyone there, that something had to be done about

the mistaken idea that Revenue Sharing would cut red tape; the

differently than if gotten from the Federal Government in
categorical grants.

no City permit, City not allowed to check sewer and water work
done, expansion without permit, health hazards from dumping in
the area, involvement with Natural Resources Council over in-
fringement of Ralston Creek. In past years, the City was

sites. It was moved by Connell and seconded by White that the

the problem. Motion carried.

COUNCIL DISCUSSION
APRIL 3, 1973
12:30 PM
The Iowa City Council met in informal session at 12:30 P.M. on
the 3rd day of April, 1973 in the Conference Room at the Civic Center.
Councilmen present were: Brandt, Connell, Czarnecki, White. Absent:
Hickerson. Others present: Wells, Chubb, Kraft, Stolfus.
The topic for discussion was General Revenue Sharing. City Mana-
ger Ray Wells presented his memo, General Revenue Sharing Fund Allocation
which summarized what revenue sharing funds can be used for; factors to
be considered in determining priorities as 1) Future financial integrity,
planning submitted thru 1976, 2) Lack of other available resources,
3) Crisis avoidance, 4) Visibility, see tangible results, 5) Public
Priorities, proper public input into priorities is up to Council, as only
report on how funds were actually spent is required to be published,
6) Impact on a problem, 7) Legal or policy imperatives, 8) Generates
or causes savings of revenue, such as Public Transit, 9) Buy into
other programs, such as joint law-enforcement, and 10) Speed of imple-
mentation, use of funds within 24 months from date of receipt of check.
Finance Director Joe Pugh advised that he had asked for changes in
calculation of our appropriation, which would work in the City's favor.
The possible expenditures were categorized in certain areas.
I) Public Safety, Police & Fire; modernization of communications and
record equipment, additional manpower $70,000 a year for 5 years, and
people and equipment for code enforcement including mobile equipment
for dispatching. II) Environmental Protection including solid waste
programs, recycling and personnel. III) Public Transportation; addi-
tional buses to maintain 90% utility and need for building for mainte-
nance, a subsidy to maintain present deficit, $170,000 each year and
upgrading for street lighting, some sidewalks and traffic signaliza-
tion. IV) Area Social Services including health, public housing, man-
power and social service programs, $120,000 a year possibly divided
$30,000 to social services, $45,000 to public health and $45,000 to
public housing, some used for planning. V) Recreation; fee subsidy,
would allow bulk of program on non -fee basis, as indicated by the
Parks & Recreation Commission. This type of program is what the
President has in mind when he talks about innovation at the local
level, change of delivery of services. $50,000 for swimming.
VI) Libraries; mobile equipment. VII) Financial Administration; cen-
tral purchasing and data processing, and central warehousing. New
sanitary landfill will create 500 entries a day, phasing into a service
bureau, or processing out own accounting system. Utility billing
every two months creates problems with our transient population.
VIII) Capital Improvements: Civic Center remodeling and floodproofing;
Park Acquisition, East Iowa City; Animal Shelter, pet population ex-
plosion, humane treatment; Public Safety Facility, Joint City -County
or Metropolitan area (records retention and communications); Central
Equipment Facility; park shops and water shops, all equipment serviced
by one facility, some money used for planning; and East-West Trunk
Sewers, relieves whole core of city.
Council discussion included use of revenue sharing money for the
R-18 Urban Renewal program; public health money being a replacement
for what is done now instead of an addition; Ralston Creek program to
be discussed next week, a general approach involving other governmental
agencies and funding; if bus deficit was eliminated, what happens to
the money now used to pay the deficit, answered by the City Manager
that the fiscal policy to be presented next Tuesday would clarify that;
method of financing needing to be locked -in, as only certain amount of
resources is available; impact of cable TV and future revenue was not
considered; Council to determine priorities in the community, needing
a current and long range planning commitment; no money can be used for
planning directly; location for animal shelter not at Landfill; not
firm on where Central Equipment Facility will be located, probably not
at the Landfill; sale of bus facility building not included, certain
percentage would go back to Federal Government anyway; increased property
valuation because of urban renewal, only 5% per year growth rate in tax
base was used; Revenue Sharing plan needing to be filed by June 9th; need
additional lengthy discussion and should chairperson from each Board 6
Commission sit in; for citizen input, there will be a public hearing on
the Capital Improvements Program; staff wanted no commitments from the
Council until after the Capital Improvements Program and Fiscal Policy
are presented.
