Mayor Tim Brandt
Civic Center
Iowa City, Iowa52240
Dear Mayor Brandt;
This will be to advise you that I; represent Mr. and'.Mrs.
Milton Rosenbaum who are the owners of the following
described property:'
Lot Five (5) in, Block "J" in Black's Park
Addition, Iowa City, Iowa according to
the recorded plat thereof.
The above described property is located on the east side
of Hutchinson Avenue, north of Park Road.
At time, apparently over 20 years ago, an extension
was made on the residence located on this property and
apparently a portion of this extension is located within
the 60 foot right-of-way of Hutchinson Avenue.
This', matter obviously creates problems as far as the
Rosenbaum's are concerned in any future sale or financing
of this property.
The purpose of this letter is to ask that the east 10 feet of
the south 120 feet of Hutchinson Avenue north of Park Road
be vacated.
This will leave available right-of-way of 50 feet for the first
120 feet and for 60 feet thereafter to the north.
Doctor and Mrs. Charles: A. Skaugstand own the property im-
mediately north and east of our property and there is a tract
of this land which could become a subdivision with access on
to Hutchinson Avenue.
■
This letter will be to advise you that Doctor and Mrs.
Skaugstad join in this application to the City Council
for a vacation of the east 10 feet of the south 120 feet
of Hutchinson Avenue north of Park Road provided that
they receive written assurance from the planning and
zoning commission and the City Council of Iowa City
that any future application for a proposed subdivision
of their tract of property would not be denied on the
basis that the south 120.feet of the Hutchinson Avenue
right-of-way is only 50 feet wide.
Mr. Philip A. Leff is the attorney for Doctor and Mrs. '
Skaugstad and Phil and I will cooperate with the City
Attorney, the Planning and Zoning Commission and the
City Council in order to expedite this matter.
The legal description of the Skaugstad tract is as fol-
lows:
Commencing 120 feet east of the S.W. corner
of Black's Park Addition to Iowa City, Iowa,
according to the recorded plat thereof, thence
N. 170 feet, W. 120 feet, East 390 feet, South,
380 feet, and then West 270 feet to the point
of beginning. Also commencing 60 feet N. and
60 feet W. of the N.W. corner of Block J of
said Black's Park Addition, thence E. 571 feet,
thence N. 90 feet, thence W. 571 feet, thence
S. 90 feet to the point of beginning all being
in Iowa City, Johnson County, Iowa.
Thank you very much for your consideration in this matter.

Dear Council Member:
It has come to the attention of -the Board of Directors of the
Iowa Ci t_v Chamber of Commerce,: that the 'question has been) raised
as to whether Mr. Tom Wegmannow serving on PAC and Mr. Bill
Nusser, a member of'heDesign Review Committee should be, allowed
to continue as members of their respective committees.
The Chamber is deeply concerned that someone is' questioning -the
integrity of these men and gives theirunqualified endorsement
to both of these people and feels it would be a disservice to
the community, if action were taken to replace them.
Cordially,
Dick Burger, President
