Agreement
Executive Summary:
This agenda item authorizes an agreement to provide consultant services for the Senior Center
Building Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Assessment and Master Plan Project.
Background /Analysis:
The Iowa City/Johnson County Senior Center (The Center) is located in a historic building at the
corner of Linn Street and Washington Street in downtown Iowa City. It provides programming to
support wellness, social connections, community engagement and lifelong learning for a diverse
and growing older adult population. The building structure was originally constructed as a post
office in 1904 and expanded in 1931. It remained the City's central post office until 1975 when,
after two -years of vacancy, it was purchased by the City and renovated for its current use. The
structure has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1979.
The City desires to invest in The Center using a comprehensive and integrated approach that
improves the health, safety and education of our residents in addition to providing sustainability
improvements, historic preservation considerations and additional features to increase
accessibility and become more aligned with ADA requirements.
The Consultant's scope of work will provide a detailed program and operational review that will
result in two documents: an ADA Assessment and Transition Plan, and a Master Plan that
identifies potential improvements, project phasing and cost estimates. If desired, design, bidding
and construction phase services may be negotiated and contracted by amendment to this
agreement.
This project will be among the first to be undertaken since the City adopted the Climate Action and
Adaptation Plan, and the project scope includes items aimed at meeting the City's climate action
goals. The major item included in this scope is a Carbon Emissions Reduction Review.

Executive Summary:
Preliminary design of the Benton Street Rehabilitation Project is nearing completion. During
preliminary design, the City's consultant, McClure Engineering, has identified a number of property
needs necessary to construct improvements at the Benton Street and Sunset Street intersection
and throughout the corridor. Proposed improvements at the Benton Street and Sunset Street
intersection include pavement widening to accommodate turn lanes and bike lanes, traffic signal
and pedestrian signal improvements and ADA sidewalk improvements. Construction throughout
the rest of the corridor will also require a number of temporary easements to accommodate water
main construction and ADA sidewalk improvements.
Background /Analysis:
The Benton Street Rehabilitation Project includes a crack and seal of the existing pavement with a
hot mix asphalt (HMA) overlay, ADA sidewalk improvements, striping of bike lanes and traffic and
pedestrian signal modifications along the project corridor, as well as water main improvements
from George Street to Greenwood Drive. The length of the project corridor extends along Benton
Street from Mormon Trek Boulevard to 150' east of Benton Drive, which is approximately 6,550
feet.

Exhibit A- Location Map
Executive Summary:
Strand Associates, I nc. has completed an I ntersection Control Evaluation for the First Avenue and
Scott Boulevard Intersection Improvements Project and identified the City's preferred intersection
alternative to be a roundabout. However, in order to construct a roundabout at this intersection,
additional Right -of -Way (ROW) will need to be acquired from adjacent property owners south of
Scott Boulevard.
Background /Analysis:
The First Avenue and Scott Boulevard intersection is currently a four-way stop control that
experiences significant queuing during peak hours, resulting in increased travel times, delays, and
emissions. In 2015, the City utilized a consultant to investigate the feasibility of constructing a
roundabout at this intersection. This consultant determined a standard modern roundabout would
handle projected traffic demands, improve vehicle safety, and provide better speed control.
The City issued a request for proposals for engineering services to design a roundabout, and
other associated improvements, at the First Avenue and Scott Boulevard intersection. The City
selected Strand Associates, I nc. based on their experience with similar projects.
Following completion of the Intersection Control Evaluation, City staff and the Consultant then met
with ACT representatives to discuss the results, and all parties agreed that the preferred
alternative was the roundabout.

MEMORANDUM
Date: May 14, 2020
To: Historic Preservation Commission
From: Anne Russett, Senior Planner
Re: 109 E. Market Street, Sanxay-Gilmore House
Background Information
The Sanxay-Gilmore House, located at 109 E. Market Street, is currently owned by the
University of Iowa. The University purchased the property in 2018 from Gloria Dei
Lutheran Church. After the change in ownership, there were many concerns regarding
the future of the building. Due to the importance of this building and concerns regarding
demolition, staff analyzed potential sites for relocation. Attachments 1 and 2 of this memo
provide more background on the analysis completed and the sites reviewed. Ultimately,
staff identified the vacant City -owned parking lot across the street from the Sanxay-
Gilmore House as the most appropriate site for relocation.
In addition to the staff analysis, the City pursued and was awarded an Emergency
Historical Resources Development Program grant through the State Historical Society.
The purpose of this grant was to assess the structural condition of the Sanxay-Gilmore
House and determine whether or not it could be relocated and rehabilitated. The City
contracted with Doug Steinmetz for the project and his final report concluded that the
building could be moved and rehabilitated.
Since the completion of the report, staff has been coordinating with the University to
identify possible solutions to preserve the building and has reached an agreement with
the University to move the building to the City -owned lot across the street.
Proposed Agreement
The draft transfer agreement [Attachment 3] outlines the obligations of both the City and
the University in preserving the Sanxay-Gilmore House. In summary, the agreement
requires the following:
- The University will be responsible for relocating the Sanxay-Gilmore House to the
City -owned parking lot across the street from the home (the vacant surface parking
lot between E. 114 and 122 E. Market Street). The University will be responsible
for the cost of the move, as well as hiring the required engineers and consultants.
- The University will remodel the house keeping the Secretary of Interior Standards
in mind.
The University will be required to maintain and preserve the home with sensitivity
to the age, architecture, and historic nature for a minimum of 40 years. If the
University no longer has a use for the home within the 40 -year period, the home
will revert to City ownership. After the 40 -year period, the University will either
preserve the home on-site or on another suitable property.
May 5, 2020

Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Historic Preservation Commission recommend that the City
Council authorize execution of this agreement.
Next Steps
After the Historic Preservation Commission's recommendation to the City Council. The
City Council will hold a public hearing on the draft agreement at an upcoming meeting.

MEMORANDUM
To: City Manager, Geoff Fruin
From: Ginalie Swaim, out -going Chair, Historic Preservation Commission, and Jessica Bristow,
Historic Preservation Planner
Re: Potential relocation sites for the Sanxay-Gilmore House
Introduction: Following the February 21 letter from the Gloria Dei Church that they will no
longer pursue moving the Sanxay-Gilmore House from 109 Market to the Jefferson Street
Historic District, staff, Ginalie Swaim, and the City Manager met to discuss alternative sites for
the relocation of the house, working from a list of potentially available sites assembled by staff.
At the direction of the City Manager, Ginalie Swaim and staff then evaluated the potential sites
for the relocation.
History/Background: The most appropriate site for any historic building eligible for listing on
the National Register of Historic Places is the original site. The original site maintains the
historic relationship to other historic buildings and the environment. With this house, some of the
neighboring historic buildings are non -extant. The current site maintains a relationship with the
Old Capitol, which is one of the only existing buildings from the same period (1840s), and Old
Brick, which was built in 1856 and is associated with the Sanxay family. As is evident from the
1883 through the 1933 Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, the house has always been in a
neighborhood that includes both residential and institutional buildings.
To evaluate the potential sites, we looked at proximity, orientation and size of the site, and
residential and/or institutional character of the site. We photographed the sites and discussed
them, taking notes for further reference. The minimum lot size necessary with 5 -foot side
setbacks, 10 -foot front setback and 20 -foot rear setback is a 50 -foot wide lot that is 80
feet deep. This would require the rear kitchen addition, built prior to 1883, to be removed.
A deeper site may be able to keep the house intact.
Another main consideration for the move is the route. While we did not look in detail at the
feasibility of moving the house to each site, we did make note of readily apparent elements that
could impact the move. Power lines, fiber optic cables, and tree canopies all impact either the
ability or the cost of using a particular route. The house is about 36 feet wide at grade and has
an additional 5 -foot entry canopy on one side and a chimney that may mean additional width on
the other side. Roof overhangs also add to the 36 -foot width and this will impact the route at the
height of the tree canopy. Clinton Street is 50 feet wide and has a relatively minimal tree
canopy. Other streets possibly involved, including Davenport, Dodge, and Bloomington, are 31
feet wide and usually have an extensive tree canopy. Dodge also has power poles that sit near
the curb and would likely need to be temporarily removed.
Potential locations removed from consideration: At the initial meeting, all under -developed
or undeveloped lots north of Iowa Avenue were considered for their viability. Privately owned
parking lots in the Northside Marketplace were removed from consideration because of their
development potential. The City -owned parking lot in the 300 block of Market Street and the
Mercy -owned parking lot at the corner of Dodge and Bloomington were removed from
consideration because of their continual and active use. Several other lots were removed from
active consideration because of current development projects or distance from the site. The
remaining lots are evaluated below beginning with the closest relationship to the original site
and presented in order of preference.
Possible new sites for relocation:
1) City -owned parking lot on the north side of the 100 -block of Market Street
This site is the closest in proximity and preserves the house's relationship to the Old Capitol and
Old Brick. It is also city -owned, has the shortest move route and some of the parking could
remain at the alley after the move. The house would be rotated 180 degrees from its original
position, but the deep lot, 59 feet by 150 feet, might allow the kitchen to be retained. Within the
same block as the original, this site would be the best choice for maintaining National Register
eligibility and mitigating moving costs. A light pole in front of the site may need to be temporarily
removed. As an underutilized lot without a structure, this lot will also necessitate less cost for
preparation.
2) 530 N. Clinton Street: University -owned open lot at the corner of Church and Clinton
This site has been cleared of its historic house and now includes a diagonal sidewalk to allow
pedestrians to cut across the lot. It is in a well-maintained neighborhood with a mixture of 19th -
and early 20th -century residential and institutional buildings. The lot is 94 feet east -west and 75
feet north -south and while it may be possible for the house to face north as it currently does,
facing west would maintain a better south setback and possibly retain the kitchen addition.
Mature pine trees to the east and street trees to the north would provide a handsome park -like
setting for the house. While the site is quite a distance from the original site, Clinton Street is 50
feet wide and is the best street to travel on all of the potential routes. One stop light arm will
need to be removed, a fiber optic cable would need to be lowered in the first block, and some
street trees may need to be trimmed but not removed. This site was viewed favorably because
of context, neighborhood quality, potential ease of relocation, and the fact that it is also an
undeveloped lot with no structure.
3) 318 E. Bloomington: Privately -owned lot with modern building
This lot only came to our attention during the site visit. It is a 70 foot by 150 foot lot with a single -
story concrete -block c. 1975 building serving as a daycare center with parking to the rear. The
size of the lot would allow the house to be moved intact and retain parking at the rear. The route
for this location would likely take the house up Clinton Street to Bloomington (31 feet wide) and
may involve the removal of the 3 ash trees in the 300 block of Bloomington Street. It would also
require a fiber optic cable and a stop light arm to be lowered on Clinton Street. At the corner of
Linn and Bloomington extensive power line work would be required and would be the case for
any location east of Linn Street. This setting would place the Sanxay-Gilmore house next to and
across from other significant historic brick structures such as the Pagliai's building and 319
Bloomington. However, its availability is unknown.
4) 305 N. Gilbert Street: Russ's Auto Repair
This lot was considered based on rumors that the owner may be considering vacating. We have
not confirmed this. The corner lot is 80 feet east -west and 75 feet north -south. The house would
fit best on the lot facing east. Along Gilbert Street, this is a residential neighborhood. The yellow
brick house across the street at 310 N. Gilbert is a c. 1875 house. The balance of the
neighborhood is post -1910s and later infill. A potential complication with this site is the
possibility that it has underground gas tanks and the costly remediation this would require. Also,
while the site is tight and would require that the kitchen addition be removed, it is not currently
occupied by a historic structure and is closer than other locations on and past Dodge Street,
therefore requiring less cost for relocation.
5) 629 E. Market and 127 N. Dodge: two parking lots owned by Mercy Hospital
For this location to be feasible, both lots must be combined. The combined lot would be 50 feet
wide by 100 feet deep. This location would require a circuitous route for the move because of
the skywalk across Market Street. The most likely route will take the house up Clinton Street (50
feet wide) one block and down Davenport Street (31 feet wide) because of the sparser tree
canopy and power lines. It would then travel down Dodge Street (31 feet wide), impacting one
or two stop light arms. While any move that includes Dodge Street will increase the cost of the
move due to the extensive power lines, fiber optic cable and tree canopy, this area has less tree
canopy than that north of Davenport. Even so, along Dodge Street, because of its width, all
power poles at the curb would need to be temporarily removed. While this is one of the only
locations that allows the house to maintain its north -facing orientation, it is less than ideal
because the historic house would be surrounded by open parking lots, multiplexes and a one-
story parking structure. The c. 1852 Branch -Linder house is nearby at 120 N. Dodge.
6) 225 N. Gilbert Street: Owned by Mercy Hospital
This lot is 55 feet by 80 feet with a slight extension in the southwest corner. It is already
occupied by a historic house. The Sanxay-Gilmore House would narrowly fit but only if the
kitchen addition were removed. This house was built by Christian and Clara Hohenschuh five
years after they built their own house next door and likely served as rental property. The house
originally had a shallow front porch on the left side that was removed in the early 1940s.
Otherwise, it maintains many of its original details and is still significant under National Register
eligibility criteria though not individually eligible. Because of the existence of a historic house on
the lot, the Commission may not consider this lot an appropriate location if undeveloped and
under -developed lots are available. The route to this location would be similar to the route to
305 N. Gilbert but would also likely include the need to impact the emergency parking lot and
landscaping at the hospital to back onto the site.
7) 719 Church Street: Parking lot owned by Ace Hardware
This large, sloped lot is 120 feet wide and 150 feet long and could be subdivided. It is located
across from Ace Hardware and surrounded by an apartment building, a historic house, a
business, an alley and garages. In this location the house could maintain its north -facing
orientation and the lot is large enough that some parking could remain. The slope would
potentially create a walk -out basement or retaining wall situation. The house would be near a
school and a mix of commercial and residential structures. The route would include the same
complications as the route to the Mercy parking lots to the south but would be even more
difficult and expensive because of the travel distance on Dodge. To travel on Dodge in this area,
significant tree canopy would be removed, and power lines/poles and fiber optic cable
temporarily moved. A stop light arm would also be moved at Church Street.
8) 229 N. Gilbert Street: Owned by Mercy Hospital
This is the corner lot and the larger of the two houses owned by Mercy. At 50 feet by 80 feet,
this lot is the minimum needed for the Sanxay-Gilmore House. It is currently occupied by the
well-preserved 1898 Queen Anne originally owned by Christian and Clara Hohenschuh.
Christian Hohenschuh was a downtown merchant. It was built by one of Iowa City's most
successful contractors and featured in a magazine published in Chicago the year of its
construction. With the exception of the siding and the boxed -in chimney, both which could be
rehabilitated, the house has many details intact and is eligible for listing in the National Register
for its architecture. The move would face the same complications as the previously discussed
locations on Bloomington Street and the house next door but may not impact the Mercy
emergency parking lot because of street access to back onto the site. This house is more
historically significant that the house next door (6), and the Commission may still not find it
appropriate to demolish a historic house if undeveloped and under -developed lots are available.
9) 520 and 522 N. Dodge: privately owned for sale
Each lot is 37'/2 feet by 80 feet so they would need to be combined. 522 N. Dodge is a historic
house with much original detail but is in poor condition. The house at 520 N. Dodge was built in
the 1860s but is in poor condition. It is the twin of the house to the south across the alley which
is in better condition, with better historic integrity, and possibly National Register eligible. These
lots are not ideal, partly because they would require the demolition of historic houses, even
ones in bad repair, but also because of the cost to move along Dodge Street north of
Davenport. Backing onto the lot may impact the trees at Horace Mann School across the street.
10) 724 Ronalds Street: City -owned property
This large original -sized lot currently has a historic house that was recently determined to be
non-contributing to the Brown Street Historic District by the Commission. While this lot would
provide a residential context, with several brick structures nearby, and the protection of the
historic district, it is not ideal for several reasons. The lot slopes down severely from the
sidewalk, forming a basin which would require significant fill and/or a walk -out basement
situation to create the appropriate relationship between the house and grade. In addition, the
relocation process would likely travel up Clinton Street to Davenport and along Dodge to
Ronalds. As discussed above, the removal of street trees, power lines, fiber optic cables and
stop lights would be required along the route. Ronalds Street has a significant tree canopy that
may require tree removal for 1 '/2 blocks. The increased distance on Dodge Street would also
close the Highway 1 for a longer period of time. This is also the most distant property from the
original location, increasing the potential risk for an unsuccessful move and divorcing the house
from any relationship to its original context.
Conclusion:
Moving a historic house to prevent demolition is always a last resort. If the Sanxay-Gilmore
House may not remain on its original site, the City -owned parking lot across the street is the
best location because it maintains the relationship between extant historic structures and would
likely be the least complicated move. The University lot at Clinton and Church Streets provides
an ideal setting worthy of the importance of the house and would likely allow an uncomplicated
move. Any move beyond Clinton Street would require the loss of street trees. While the Mercy -
owned lots on Gilbert may be available and acceptable, the Commission would be reluctant to
promote the demolition of a National Register- eligible house for the move. The privately -owned
lots on Bloomington may be better options but their availability is unknown. The remaining lots
reviewed would incur larger costs for relocation.

MEMORANDUM
Date: January 2, 2019
To: Geoff Fruin, City Manager
From: Jessica Bristow, Historic Preservation Planner
Re: 109 Market, Sanxay-Gilmore House, relocation project
Introduction:
The Sanxay-Gilmore House at 109 Market Street, an important piece of Iowa City history, is
located on its original site and was recently purchased by the University of Iowa from Gloria Dei
Lutheran Church for future campus needs. Gloria Dei originally proposed relocating the house
at their expense to a nearby courtyard in the Jefferson Street Historic District. The church
backed off that plan after receiving negative feedback from the City. In a February 21, 2018
letter to the Mayor and Historic Preservation Chair, the church expressed a desire to gift the
house to an entity wishing to preserve the structure and further committed to donating $50,000
for that purpose. If the house is not moved, the University has indicated that it will demolish the
structure in the summer of 2019.
The City Council previously asked staff to investigate options for moving the house. This memo
provides the Council with such options as well as associated cost estimates that were
developed by an architect and structural engineer with expertise in historic structures.
History/Background:
Built by 1843, the Sanxay (pronounced Sanksay) Gilmore House is the oldest -known residence
remaining in Iowa City. Along with the Old Capitol, the Park House Hotel (130 East Jefferson
Street) and Old Brick (20 East Market Street) it is among the most historic buildings in Iowa City.
It is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places primarily for its historic association with
the Sanxay and Gilmore families in addition to its architecture. The Sanxays were one of the
founding families of Iowa City, emigrating to Iowa from Cincinnati to sell merchandise in the
newly founded territorial capital city. Additional information on the history of the house can be
found in the attached article, "Saving Iowa City's Oldest House."
The historic importance of the Sanxay-Gilmore House has long been recognized in the
community. Margaret Keyes, the University of Iowa Professor who coordinated the restoration of
Old Capitol, featured the house at 109 Market Street in her 1967 book, Nineteenth -Century
Home Architecture of Iowa City. Historian Irving Weber wrote of the house multiple times in his
column for the Iowa City Press -Citizen. Recent research revealed that the construction of the
house occurred at the same time that the Capitol building was being built, affirming the fact that
it is one of the oldest structures in Iowa City.
After the loss of the historic cottages in the 600 block of South Dubuque Street, City Council
directed the Iowa City Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) to be proactive in their local
landmark process. So, in 2015, the HPC identified the Sanxay-Gilmore House as the number
one priority for historic landmark designation. That year the Planning and Zoning Commission
and City Council also recognized it in the Central District Comprehensive Plan update as a
historic building worthy of preservation.
The HPC was planning to commence the process of communicating with property owners of
eligible properties about landmark designation when news broke August 2017 indicating the
Church was planning to sell the building to the University of Iowa. While the process for this
building was paused, several other brick structures continued through the landmark process and
were designated Iowa City Historic Landmarks in early 2018.

The original intent of the joint plan between the University of Iowa and Gloria Dei Lutheran
Church was to relocate the house at 109 Market Street to the historic open space located next
to 130 Jefferson Street and included in the Jefferson Street Historic District. This relocation
would undermine the historic integrity of both the house and the Historic District. The State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) provided a formal opinion on the impact of the relocation on
the house and Historic District and the HPC and Staff worked to find alternative locations for the
house. On February 12, 2018, Preservation Iowa included the house in the 2018 list of Iowa's
most endangered properties. On February 21, 2018, Gloria Dei wrote a letter to the Chair of the
Historic Preservation Commission that they will no longer pursue moving the house from 109
Market Street to the historic courtyard. They would also no longer take responsibility for
relocating the house but would gift the structure to entity interested in preservation and
contribute $50,000 toward that effort.
Potential Relocation Sites:
Staff assembled a list of potentially available sites, expanded from the original, adjacent,
alternate sites and evaluated them with the Chair of the HPC at the direction of the City
Manager. Potential sites included any open, non -historic, and/or underdeveloped sites north of
Iowa Avenue and west of Governor street. To evaluate the potential sites, several factors were
reviewed: proximity, orientation, and size of the site, and residential and/or institutional
character of the site. A list of potential locations was communicated to the City Manager in a
July 2, 2018 memo (attached).
The most appropriate site for any historic building eligible for listing on the National Register of
Historic Places is the original site. The original site maintains the historic relationship to other
historic buildings and the environment. With this house, some of the neighboring historic
buildings are non -extant. The current site maintains a relationship with the Old Capitol, which is
one of the only existing buildings from the same period (1840s), and Old Brick, which was built
in 1856 and is associated with the Sanxay family. As is evident from the 1883 through the 1933
Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, the house has always been in a neighborhood that includes both
residential and institutional buildings. Because the University intends to demolish the structure,
alternative sites must be considered.
During an executive session with Council on July 17, 2018, to discuss purchase of potential
relocation sites, the sites identified in the July 2nd memo were discussed including several in the
North Marketplace Neighborhood and several that were for sale or already owned by the City. In
the time since the Executive Session, staff has identified the following as potential relocation
sites (see attached map):
• City -owned parking lot on the north side of the 100 -block of Market Street
• City -owned home at 225 N. Gilbert Street
• City owned home at 229 N. Gilbert Street
• City owned home at 724 Ronalds Street
Financial Impact:
Staff and the HPC applied for an Emergency Historic Resource Development Program (HRDP)
grant from the state to hire a consultant to evaluate and assess the structural requirements for
relocating the house and the scope of work for the relocation and mothballing of the house.
Historic architect, Doug Steinmetz, and his structural engineer, Todd Birkel, were hired to
complete the assessment. Coordination between the structural engineer and the movers,
Goodwin Housemoving, is ongoing and should be complete in January.
The Consultant has provided draft estimates for structural stabilization during and after the
move, mothballing the house after the move, abandoning the old site, and full rehabilitation and
adaptive reuse. Staff has estimated the relocation costs. These costs may change depending
on the final site chosen and the route.

Other:
Hazardous materials removal at either site is not addressed. The building relocation costs are
likely to vary a great deal depending on the final site chosen. The estimates are based on a
move to the neighborhood of the Gilbert Street locations. The site across Market Street should
allow for a much greater reduction in move costs, especially through Mid -American Energy. The
site in the 700 block of Ronalds Street would have much higher costs for the relocation and for
the Foundation, Landscaping and Mothballing portion of the project because of unique site
conditions. This location would also lead to a substantial impact on the tree canopy along the
route.
The original discussion with the consultant about the professional fees included an additional
$24,000 for the coordination during the move. It was discussed that Historic Preservation Staff
may be better positioned to perform this task with greater efficiency and reduced cost so an
estimate of the cost for additional staff time (over the existing 20 hours per week) was included
in the table. If an outside consultant provided this coordination, the cost would be an estimated
$24,000 instead of the $9,000 included in the table.
Additionally, with the exception of the design of the new basement and structural systems, HP
Staff could act as project manager and general contractor for the Foundation, Landscaping and
Mothballing portions and reduce the costs for professional fees. Coordination of subcontractors
for this work is something with which staff has considerable experience. It would likely take an
additional 200 hours of staff time (over staff's existing 20 hours per week). This is in addition to
the potential 200 hours Project Management for the move and is estimated based on a past
move project. If the City were to proceed in this direction, the $40,600 Professional Fee would
be reduced to the cost required for the design of the basement and structural systems plus an
amount estimated to be roughly $9,000 for additional HP staff time to perform this service.
It may be possible for the site abandonment costs to be reduced through coordination with the
University when they plan to demolish adjacent remaining houses on Clinton Street next
summer.
Finally, the consultant has a preliminary estimate for a complete rehabilitation and adaptive
commercial reuse of the building following the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for
Rehabilitation and includes steps such as re -opening the main staircase, repairing and
refinishing interior materials, and replacing all interior MEP systems. This portion of the project
does not need to be completed or planned for immediately. The mothballing portion of the
project listed above would be sufficient to allow the house to sit in stasis on a new site without
further deterioration. Ultimately a rehabilitation project would need to be completed prior to
reuse by the City or another entity/owner. It is possible that the City could find cost savings once
a final use is determined. These potential costs in a rough estimate are as follows:
Full Rehabilitation and Adaptive Reuse
Cost Estimate for work
$480,000
Contingency 20%
$96,000
Professional Fees 15%
$86,400
Total
$662,400

City Council Direction Requested:
Staff is requesting City Council direction on the next steps for this project. The proposed FY20
budget includes $330,000 for the relocation of the house. This cost estimate was a placeholder
while we were waiting on the official estimates from the consultant. These dollars combined with
$50,000 brings the total available funding to $380k, which is short of the $573,128 estimate for
moving and mothballing. If the Council wishes to pursue the move further, it will need to amend
staff's recommended budget by adding $193,128 or by $855,528 if full rehabilitation is desired.
These expenses include some contingency dollars but do not include ongoing maintenance of
the building.
The four sites under consideration are all city -owned, thus land acquisition is not required.
However, it should be pointed out that the City -owned parking lot on Market Street likely has a
value near $1 million and that the two homes on N. Gilbert were recently bought for $185,000
(225 Gilbert) and $250,000 (229 Gilbert). The two homes on Gilbert Street were purchased with
loan funds from our UniverCity lenders. If either of the homes on Gilbert Street are chosen as
the new site, City funds must be used to repay the loan. The City will also need to include
demolition costs. The home on Ronalds Street was purchased a few years ago through a
condemnation and the City has previously discussed using it for a missing middle housing
demonstration site. This site would also need to include demolition costs as well as additional
route and landscaping costs.
Prior to proceeding with any further plans, staff is requesting City Council direction on whether
the City still wishes to proceed with relocation given the costs and available sites. If so, it will be
important to amend the proposed budget and select a location so that the move can take place
this summer.

Built by March 1843, the house at 109 East Market was home to the Sanxay family (pronounced Sank -say), who played important
roles in early Iowa City, and to Eugene Gilmore, retired University of Iowa president, in the 1940s.
Saving Iowa City's Oldest House
by Alicia Trimble (executive director, Friends of Historic Preservation)
and Ginalie Swaim (chairperson, Iowa City Historic Preservation Commission)
ACTING UPON RECOMMENDATIONS from the Iowa
City Historic Preservation Commission and the Plan-
ning and Zoning Commission, the City Council in 2015
amended the comprehensive plan to include identifica-
tion of the house at 109 East Market Street as a historic
property worthy of preservation. The Sanxay-Gilmore
House was long believed to date as far back as the late
1850s.
Compelling new evidence tells us that the house was
built much earlier, and therefore is even more significant.
We now know that it is likely the oldest remaining house
within the original city limits. It stands with Old Capitol as
the town's oldest structures.
This new research in tax records and newspapers re-
veals that the Sanxay-Gilmore House was built by 1843.
That discovery makes its protection imperative. We be-
lieve that every effort must be made to keep the house
where it is, where its history unfolded. A building's his-
toric significance lies in its architectural integrity and in
its association with the people and events from the past.
The Sanxay-Gilmore House is rich in both. The physical
house and the story of the people who lived in it tell us
much about Iowa City's past.
Helping a Town Grow and Flourish
THE SANXAY FAMILY, for whom the house is named, is
interwoven in Iowa City's history almost from the begin-
ning. The year before the Sanxays arrived, the town had
been platted, Robert Lucas as territorial governor had
made his first visit, and Chauncey Swan had contracted
with an architect for a new capitol.
In February 1840, Frederic Sanxay and his twenty-
one-year-old son, Theodore, arrived with a stock of goods
to sell to the emigrants pouring into this "embryo city,"
as one town founder called it. The first sawmill couldn't
keep up with carpenters' demands. Fortunately that
April Sylvanus Johnson began making bricks, such that
on July 4, the Sanxays and business partner Malcolm
Murray dedicated their store, the town's first two-story
brick structure. The same day the cornerstone of the capi-
tol was set in place.
By 1841, young Theodore Sanxay had purchased
Lot 3 at Clinton and Market streets, envisioning a family
home there. He married Hettie Perry in 1842. The two-
story house built for the couple (probably of Sylvanus
Johnsons bricks) was finished in time for the birth of their
first son, Theodore Frederic Sanxay, in March 1843. Sec-
ond son James Perry Sanxay was also born in the house,
in 1846. Another son died before age three.
The house was built in the popular and elegant Greek
Revival style, as was the nearby capitol. As the family's
economic standing grew, so did their home. The adjoining
Lot 4 was purchased. An addition with Italianate details
was added to the west. Two more additions followed.
Every morning, from his fine brick home at 109 East
Market, Theodore Sanxay strode out into the busy world
of Iowa City civic life and commerce. He was quickly be-
coming a mover and shaker. By 1844, he was a trustee and
founding member of First Presbyterian Church. (Twelve
years later, the stately building we now call Old Brick
would be built diagonally across Market Street from his
home.) Starting in the 1850s he helped push local man-
ufacturing, plan a high school, and promote the town's
first railroad. He served as a director, vice president, and
acting president of the Johnson County Savings Bank.
The store the Sanxays had started in 1840 had shifted
to selling hardware and iron in a new location at Clinton
and Washington. The brick building there grew from two
stories to three, and expanded to the east. Years later the
building became known as Whetstone's and it now hous-
es Panchero's. But for decades it was referred to simply as
Sanxay's Corner, so integral was the family to the town.
Although J. P. Sanxay, the second son, ran the store,
he "developed for everything like business, and all its ac-
tivities, such intense antipathy, to render him almost mor-
bid," according to his brother. Although he took up other
interests and moved away, J. P. and his wife retired to the
family home at 109 E. Market, where he died in 1901.
Meanwhile, his brother, Theodore Frederic, had
become an attorney in the East. He still read Iowa City
newspapers and tried to visit every year. He wrote the
Old Settlers Association in 1908, "The circumstance of
my birth in Iowa City gives me a great affection for the
place, and I confess that, though the major part of my life
has been lived elsewhere, as the years roll on I find my
thoughts turning more and more to the old home of my
boyhood, and I begin to feel that I should like to end my
life there, where it began." He died in New York in 1925
but was buried here in Oakland Cemetery. An impressive
monument marks his grave.
His love of his hometown extended to the Univer-
sity of Iowa. His estate established an annual award for a
liberal arts graduate; the award still exists as the Sanxay
Prize. The initial gift for the prize was $15,000—equal to
$210,000 in today's dollars.
Sharing a History with the University
IN 1946, EUGENE AND BLANCHE GILMORE bought
"the little neo-classic house on East Market street," as
Blanche described it. Eugene Gilmore served as Univer-
sity of Iowa president from 1934 to 1940 (and before that,
as vice governor-general of the Philippine Islands, and
then professor and dean of the UI law school). Despite
the troubling economic times of the Great Depression, the
university under his leadership acted entrepreneurially,
adding the Law Commons, Hillcrest Residence Hall, the
Theatre Building, and the Art Building to the campus.
According to Blanche Gilmore, the Sanxay-Gilmore
House's unusually large foundation stones were "left
over from the construction of the capitol building." That
certainly seems fitting, because the Sanxays, arriving here
even before Old Capitol was begun, were certainly part
of the foundation of this community. Their 1843 house—
and its juxtaposition to the downtown and campus—is a
compelling reminder of the early days in Iowa City, when
bricks were just becoming available but entrepreneurship
and civic values were already paramount.
Gloria Dei Lutheran Church has owned the house in
recent decades and has been a good steward. Now the
church is selling the lot to the University of Iowa and pro-
posing to move the house (with university assistance) to
the courtyard at 130 E. Jefferson Street.
At first glance, this might seem like a good solution.
The National Park Service, however, states that historic
buildings should remain where their history happened.
In other words, the location and orientation of the Sanxay-
Gilmore House is indeed part of its story and key to its
significance.
Protecting a Historic Green Space
FURTHERMORE, THE COURTYARD at 130 E. Jeffer-
son (the proposed receiving site) is part of another story.
The State Historic Preservation Office, representing the
National Park Service, has delineated several issues re-
lated to inserting the house here. One of these issues is
the courtyard's association with the adjoining building,
known historically as the Park House Hotel (1852-1857)
130 E. Jefferson Street was St.Agatha's Female Seminary for Girls for five decades, and then Svendi Hall, a private dormitory
for women. This photo, circa 1891, shows the courtyard west of the building.
and St. Agatha's Female Seminary. St. Agatha's was a
girls' boarding and day school operated by the Sisters of
Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The Sisters of Charity in the Midwest—like Cathe-
rine Beecher and other 19th -century educators — valued
natural spaces for its female students. Physical exercise
in the outdoors was essential; so were opportunities to
study botany and contemplate nature. When the Sisters
of Charity started advertising another Iowa school simi-
lar to St. Agatha's in 1858, they extolled its location "in
the midst of a grove of luxuriant timber, the shady walks
of which, together with the grounds which are elegantly
laid out, render it a most eligible place for the instruction
of young Ladies." After St. Agatha's opened on Jefferson
Street in 1861,a stable was moved from the courtyard and
a board fence erected, granting the students and teachers
some privacy and protection. Later, an arbor appeared.
According to 1880s catalogs for St. Agatha's, the school
"derives many advantages from its location in Iowa City,
Even today, the courtyard at 130 Jefferson holds true to its ori-
gins as a treasured green space in the oldest part of Iowa City.
is beautifully and healthfully situated between groves,
woods, and on a winding river."
St. Agatha's closed in 1909 and the large building be-
came Svendi Hall (and later Burkley Place), a privately
owned women's dormitory. The women boarders would
have enjoyed the courtyard as a remnant of nature.
Over all these decades, the courtyard has functioned
as a tranquil, restorative green space in a heavily built
area of town. Inserting an 1843 house here would be a dis-
service not only to the needs of today's urban dwellers,
but also to the history of both the Sanxay-Gilmore House
and St. Agatha's. The significance of two historic proper-
ties would be diminished.
Honoring a Sense of Place
WE ENCOURAGE the University of Iowa to build upon
its long commitment to historic properties and its part-
nership with the Iowa City community. As the university
conducts feasibility studies for construction of an entre-
preneurial center in the area, we believe that its leaders
should indeed embrace its entrepreneurial and innova-
tive spirit and build around this historic home at 109
East Market—just as the Pappajohn Building was built
around Gilmore Hall on campus. There are plenty of
national examples of new architecture juxtaposed with
historic structures, where new and old complement each
other. It can be done. Here lies a wonderful opportunity
for the university and creative architects to do something
truly stellar, in honor of our shared history.
And we urge the City of Iowa City to work with all
parties to protect the Sanxay-Gilmore House, the oldest
house within our original city limits, and to keep it where
it first arose in 1843—a contemporary in time, space, and
story of Old Capitol itself.

Re: Gloria Dei Christus House (Sanxay-Gilmore House)109 East Market Street
Representatives of Gloria Dei Lutheran Church appreciate the thoughtful dialogue we have shared over
the last several weeks in regard to our proposal to relocate and to restore the Christus House on the
green space on the north side of the 100 block of East Jefferson Street. The history of the house,
believed to have been built in 1843, and the significance of green space within the Jefferson Street
Historic District have been highlighted. We have heard the concerns you expressed of the negative
impact of relocating the house to the green space might have on the neighborhood and on the entire
historic district. Based on the information we have received from The State Office of Historic
Preservation, The Iowa City Historic Preservation Commission, and The Friends of Historic Preservation
as well as concerns expressed by Iowa City Councilors, we have reconsidered our proposal. Gloria Dei
congregation will no longer pursue nor support moving the house to the green space on the 100 block of
Jefferson Street or to any other location on the current block.
The congregation wishes to thank the Hodge Family for their willingness to consider donating their land
for the move. It was a wonderful offer we now find the congregation must decline.
Having been good.stewards of the historic house for over 25 years, Gloria Dei congregation has
determined that we can no longer continue in that role. The stewardship of the house must be passed
on to others whose mission and expertise match the need.
Since 1858, Gloria Dei Lutheran Church's mission on the corner of Dubuque and Market Streets has been
to spread the good news of Jesus Christ to our community. These last few months have been spent in
discernment on how best to continue our support for the Lutheran Campus Ministry — to whom we have
gifted the use of the Christus House — and their mission to work with the students of the University of
Iowa. We must clearly declare our mission is not about a historic structure; our mission is sharing the
message of God's saving grace!

We are thankful to the leadership of the University of Iowa for their support in the purchase of our two
houses which will allow the congregation to maintain our facilities and continue our mission to serve all
people, especially students and members of the University of Iowa community. Their expressed and
steadfast support for faith -based churches in the heart of our community and near the campus is deeply
appreciated.
Therefore, the Gloria Dei congregation desires to gift the Christus House (Sanxay-Gilmore House) to an
entity whose mission is to preserve Iowa City's historic properties and who has the financial resources to
relocate, restore, and maintain the house in a safe location beyond the current block in which it is
located. We will assist in the relocation effort to an approved site by donating $50,000 for that purpose.
We invite you to find a qualified steward and a safe location, out of development's way, so that the
house may be preserved for future generations.

Iowa City, Iowa 52245-1731
Dear Jean and Roger,
Thank you for your very thoughtful February 21 memo concerning Gloria Dei Christus House
(Sanxay-Gilmore House) at 109 Market Street.
As I write this letter, I am looking at the brochure you gave me when we met back in January.
The brochure vividly reveals that Gloria Dei has been a very important part of Iowa City from
the date First English Lutheran Church was built in 1858, through the moment in 1962 when a
fire destroyed the first brick church, to the present day. We in City government want to see
Gloria Dei thrive in its present location and thereby to continue fulfilling its mission of serving
all people, especially students and members of the University of Iowa community.
As you have been looking to the future, you have had to decide what to do with the Christos
House. In addition to deliberating as a congregation, you have reached out to members of the
Historic Preservation Commission and Friends of Historic Preservation, and to City government
officials, including City Manager Geoff Fruin and me.
I understand the complexities associated with the decision and presume it was a difficult one to
make. But it was made with considerable thought and care.
As a result of these deliberations, you have decided not to pursue or support the original idea of
moving the house to the green space on the 100 block of Jefferson Street or to any other location
OR the current Market Street block. You have also decided to gift the house to an entity whose
mission is to preserve Iowa City's historic properties and who has the financial resources to
relocate, restore, and maintain the house in a safe location beyond the current block in which it is
located. Moreover, you have committed to donating $50,000 to assist in moving the house to an
approved location.
In the coming weeks City staff, along with representatives of the Historic Preservation
Commission and Friends of Historic Preservation, will actively investigate possible sites for the
relocated home.
We greatly appreciate your commitment to working with us as we assess possible sites for the
house's preservation. We ask that the Church and the University of Iowa continue to be
supportive and patient with us as we find a new location for this vitally important piece of our
community's history.

Subject: Sanxay-Gilmore House
A
SK (Date)
As a historian with a strong interest in historic preservation and local history, I write to urge a favorable vote on the
proposed agreement to relocate the 1843 Sanxay-Gilmore House to a nearby city -owned parcel that is now used as a
small parking lot.
A case has been made for the historical significance of the house based on age, architectural design, and associated
social history. However, I would also like to call attention to the house as part of the fabric of the downtown core. For
more that 150 years, the historic city center has been the nexus of the city's commercial, religious, academic, and
residential life, with the Pentacrest as its focal center. It is this mix of historic buildings that gives Iowa City its distinctive
appearance, and it is one of the amenities I considered in deciding to retire to the Iowa City area.
The city retains a significant portion of its historic churches and commercial buildings in addition to Old Capitol and the
historic core of the university campus, but residential buildings, which deteriorate more readily, are steadily
disappearing. Although it would be preferable to preserve the house in situ, preserving it within its associated
neighborhood and assuring its continued use for at least forty years would benefit the community as a whole.

The applicant, Allen Homes, Inc. submitted an application for a preliminary plat for the
Community View Subdivision, an approximately 35.21 -acre subdivision containing one
public lot for a future City fire station, three multi -family lots, and 57 single-family lots.
Located east of Scott Boulevard and north of American Legion Road.
Earlier this year, the Council approved an annexation (ANN19-01) and rezoning (REZ19-09)
of the subject property to Interim Development Single -Family Residential (ID -RS) with the
following conditions:
1. The developer satisfies the Comprehensive Plan's Annexation Policy, as stated in
Resolution 18-211.
2. The dedication of 17 feet of additional public right-of-way along American Legion
Road to be dedicated to the City at the time of final platting.
3. Conveyance of a temporary construction easement to the City along the north side of
American Legion Road.
Subsequent to the annexation and rezoning, the applicant submitted another rezoning
application (REZ19-13) requesting that 10.64 acres be rezoned to Low Density Multi -Family
3
Residential (RM -12), 22.51 acres of to Low Density Single -Family Residential (RS -5), and
2.14 acres to Neighborhood Public (P-1). The Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval of this rezoning subject to the conditions listed below. City Council
is currently reviewing the rezoning application.
1. The developer satisfies the Comprehensive Plan's Annexation Policy, as stated in
Resolution 18-211 for provision of affordable housing.
2. No building permit shall be issued for any development on the subject property
until the City Council approves a final plat resubdividing the subject property to
conform to the zoning boundaries established by the rezoning ordinance.
3. Any development on the subject property shall generally conform to the attached
concept plan, dated 02/26/2020, which will include the extension of Eastbrook
Street to the future north -south street, and the development of single-family,
townhouse, and stacked -flat multi -family housing as shown in said concept plan.
4. Trail connections to the City's park and trail networks are provided as shown in the
attached concept plan. The trail connection on the property's far west side must be
built to the northern property line. The trail connection between Lots 23 and 24
must be made all the way to the existing trail on City property. The developer shall
be responsible for installing these trails at such time as described in a subdivider's
agreement to be executed at the time any portion of this land is subdivided, and in
accordance with the specifications for such improvements as to be set forth
therein.
5. That a permanent drainage easement from the American Legion Road
improvement project be dedicated to the City in a form of agreement acceptable to
the City Attorney at the time of platting at a location to be determined by Public
Works staff.
6. At platting, traffic calming measures, such as traffic circles, narrower lane widths,
etc., must be incorporated to the satisfaction of City staff to address concerns
related to speeding.
Due to concerns with community health and safety posed by the threat of COVID-19, staff is
not recommending in person good neighbor meetings. As part of the rezoning application,
the applicant mailed information out to area neighbors notifying them of their plans.
ANALYSIS:
Compliance with Comprehensive Plan: The Southeast District Plan identifies this area as
appropriate for predominantly single-family development with more intense residential
development appropriate closer to the intersection of Scott Boulevard and American Legion
Road. Two land use designations are identified on the future land use map. The Low/Medium
Density Single -Family and Duplex land use designation covers the majority of the subject
property and envisions development at a density of 2-8 dwelling units per acre. The
Medium/High Density Single -Family and Townhouse designation covers the western portion
of the property and envisions zero lot line development, duplexes, townhouses, and narrow
lot detached single-family at a density of 8-13 dwelling units per acre. See Figure 1.

Compliance with the concept plan, which is a condition of the rezoning, ensures a transition
from higher intensity development to the west to lower intensity to the east. In addition, the
Comprehensive Plan calls for increasing housing options within the Southeast District and
encouraging a mix of housing types within new neighborhoods; which the subdivision
accomplishes. The Comprehensive Plan also calls for the continued development of
interconnected street networks. Specifically, the Plan calls for new neighborhoods to be
designed in a manner that contributes to the larger interconnected street pattern of the city
and that provides for safe, efficient and orderly movement of vehicular, pedestrian, and
bicycle traffic. The preliminary plat accomplishes this objective by extending Eastbrook
Street to the east, thereby providing a connection between the future north -south road and
the Eastbrook Flats neighborhood to the west. The preliminary plat also provides
connections to the existing neighborhood to the east.
Subdivision Design: The subdivision includes one public lot, three multi -family lots, and
57 single-family lots. The single-family lots meet the minimum dimensional requirements
of the RS -5 zone. In the RS -5 zone, the minimum lot frontage is 45 feet and the minimum
lot width measured at the setback is 60 feet. The proposed lots meet these minimum
dimensions. The proposed lot sizes range from 8,100 square feet to 17,729 square feet,
which exceed the minimum lot size requirement of 8,000 square feet in the RS -5 zone.
The subdivision design includes the extension of Eastbrook Street, Winnsboro Drive, and
Tottenham Avenue, as well as the creation of a new street, Aiden Street. Conformance
with the concept plan, specifically the extension of Eastbrook Street and trail connections,
are proposed conditions of the rezoning currently being reviewed by the City Council. The
preliminary plat conforms with the concept in these respects. The concept shows the
extension of Eastbrook Street to the east and also shows two trail connections - one
5
connection to Scott Park at the western end of the plat and another trail connection to an
existing trail by Lot 29. The subdivision also shows sidewalk connections throughout. The
concept includes a cul-de-sac, which has been removed and is not included in the
preliminary plat. Staff supports this change, which does result in one additional single-
family lot than what is shown in the concept.
The pending rezoning also includes a recommended condition related to traffic calming.
The preliminary plat incorporates a traffic circle at the intersection of Tottenham Avenue
and Aiden Street, a raised crosswalk at approximately midblock on Eastbrook Street, and
pavement widths of 26 feet. A portion of Aiden Street is identified on the plat as 28 feet
and staff has asked the applicant that this be revised to 26 feet. With that change, the
traffic calming features are agreeable to the City's Transportation Planner and Public
Works staff. The details of the traffic circle design will be reviewed at the time of final
platting.
Environmentally Sensitive Areas: The subject property does not contain any
environmentally sensitive features. The northern and western portions of the property are
in the 100 and 500 -year flood plains.
Neighborhood Open Space: Open space dedication or fees in lieu of are addressed at the
time of final platting. Based on the 22.51 acres of RS -5 zoning and 10.64 acres of RM -12
zoning, the developer would be required to dedicate 1.17 acres of land or pay fees in -lieu.
Due to the proximity of Scott Park, an in -lieu fee payment would be appropriate.
Storm Water Management: There is a storm water detention easement over the
northwestern portion of the property. The preliminary plat has this area identified as Outlot
A. Through this subdivision, the applicant has proposed to decrease the size of this easement
area, but maintain the volume necessary for the proposed development. Public Works staff
has approved the preliminary grading plan and will review the final stormwater detention
design with the final plat and construction drawings.
Infrastructure Fees: The City requires developers to pay a $456.75 per acre fee for water
service. The project site is not located in one of the City's sanitary sewer districts, and
therefore, the City collects no sanitary sewer tap on fees.
NEXT STEPS:
Upon recommendation of approval of the preliminary plat by the Planning and Zoning
Commission, the preliminary plat will be considered by the City Council. After approval of
the rezoning and preliminary plat the applicant may submit an application for the final plat.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of SUB20-05, an application submitted by Allen Homes, Inc. for
a Preliminary Plat for the Community View subdivision, consisting of one public lot, 3 multi-
family lots, and 57 single-family lots on 35.21 acres located east of Scott Boulevard and north
of American Legion Road.

Signs noted by taking off the back parts of some of those larger buildings they are going to end
up with more reasonably sized units as far as potential rentals go. Monson replied that's right
and they think it is the right way of preserving downtown but also making it viable. They to
restore these buildings and get them back into service and building the buildings behind the
current structures is the answer.
Dyer asked if the new building have windows on all sides. Monson confirmed it will.
Hensch asked if some of the upper floors of the structures are unoccupied presently or have
been for some time. Monson confirmed that's correct.
Hensch closed the public hearing.
Parsons moved to approve REZ20-02, an application submitted by Tailwind College St. IC,
LLC for a rezoning from Central Business (CB -10) zone to CB -10 with a Historic District
Overlay (CB-10/OHD) for the properties located at 109, 111-113, 115, and 117-121 E.
College Street.
Baker seconded the motion.
Townsend noted her surprise that those buildings weren't on the historic society already. She
does wonder what will happen to the ones on the other side of the street and if they are going to
try to put those on historic society. Russett mentioned they are working on a nomination to the
National Register right now for the entire Downtown District to hopefully be listed in the National
Register of Historic Places. Townsend added she would hate to see some funky high rise right
across the street. Signs stated it is already there, the one on the corner is a relatively new
structure from the 70s or 80s, so part of the blocks already been redone by the Plaza Center
One.
Signs stated it sounds like an interesting project and a way to maintain the street character in the
Ped Mall and take better advantage of the rest of that space. He agrees there's a positive to
reducing the size of some of those massive buildings with it'll probably help limit some of the
massive uses of those buildings. He is intrigued and thinks there could be some real good things
happening there.
Hensch supports this application now even more than when he was reading it because he thinks
it's very important to maintain the character and history of Iowa City and now learning that a lot of
those spaces are unoccupied anyway, that is not the best use to get more people downtown.
They need places to live, they need more businesses and more variety of businesses. Plus, this
will allow the property to be eligible for tax credits.
A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0.
CASE NO. SUB20-05:
Applicant: Allen Homes, Inc.
Location: East of Scott Blvd and north of American Legion Road
Planning and Zoning Commission
May 21, 2020
Page 7 of 13
An application submitted by Allen Homes, Inc. for a preliminary plat for Community View
subdivision, a 35.21 -acre subdivision consisting of one public lot, three multi- family lots, and 57
single-family lots located east of Scott Boulevard and north of American Legion Road.
Russett began the staff report noting this is a preliminary plat application for the Community View
subdivision. She showed the location of the subdivision and noted this area has been before the
Commission a couple times in the recent past. Currently it is zoned ID -RS.
In terms of background, the Commission should remember the annexation and rezoning that was
before them a few months ago. Those were also adopted by City Council earlier this year. Since
the approval of the annexation and rezoning to ID -RS the applicant submitted another rezoning
application requesting that this land be zoned RM -12, which is a multifamily zone, and P-1, which
is a public zone and intended use as a future City Fire Station. The remainder is 22.5 acres
would be zoned RS -5, a single-family zone. That rezoning is currently going through City Council
and the second reading of this rezoning occurred at Tuesday's meeting and the third reading
would be scheduled for June.
Russett showed the rezoning exhibit to show the location of the single-family versus multifamily
versus the public zone. She reminded them this rezoning is pending and there are several
conditions that are associated with this rezoning. First is that the development generally
conforms with the concept plan that was submitted to staff in February. Another condition is that
there are trail connections to the City park and trail networks. The next is that there's a
permanent drainage easement from the American Legion Road improvement project, and lastly
that traffic calming measures are incorporated. Russett showed the concept plan that's
associated with the condition pointing out the proposed fire station, the multifamily units and the
single-family lots. Overall there's one public lot, three multifamily lots and 57 single-family lots.
There is also an outlet for stormwater management. The plat also shows an extension of
Eastbrook Street, street connections to the existing single-family neighborhood to the east, and
the addition of a new street, Aiden Street, which would run north/south through this subdivision.
There are two trail connections, one at the western side of the plat which would connect into
Scott Park and then another trail connection at the northeast end of the subdivision which will
connect to an existing trail.
In terms of differences between the plat and the concept plan, the concept plan did have a cul-
de-sac which has been removed and staff supports the removal of that cul-de-sac. There's one
additional lot on the plat than was in the concept. Russett said these are minor changes and
staff finds that this plat does conform with the concept plan and compliance with the concept plan
will also be further reviewed at the site plan stage, particularly for the multifamily buildings.
In terms of compliance with the Comprehensive Plan, through the condition that the plat
conforms with the concept plan, there's an assurance that there's going to be a transition and
density from west to east. The concept also identifies a variety of housing types which is
encouraged by the Plan. Additionally, the subdivision shows an interconnected network of
streets which is a goal of the Comprehensive Plan.
In terms of the condition related to traffic calming, the subdivision includes three different
approaches. The first is the pavement width of the street is 26 feet wide. Then there is a traffic
circle proposed at Tottenham Avenue and Aiden Street and there's a raised crosswalk mid -block
on Eastbrook Street. All these options are agreeable to staff and they address the proposed
Planning and Zoning Commission
May 21, 2020
Page 8 of 13
rezoning condition related to traffic calming.
Neighborhood open space is also required for residential subdivisions. Russett noted this will be
addressed at final platting and dedication would be required of either 1.17 acres or a payment of
an in -lieu -of -fee and based on the proximity of Scott Park an in -lieu -of payment would be
appropriate.
Stormwater management is shown on the plat as outlot A, which is actually an existing storm
water detention easement area, the applicant is proposing to decrease the land area of this
easement but maintain the volume necessary for the proposed development. Public Works staff
has approved the preliminary stormwater calculations and the grading plan and will review the
final storm water detention designs at final platting.
The role of the Commission is to determine whether the plat complies with the subdivision
regulations and the Comprehensive Plan. In terms of next steps, the third reading of the rezoning
ordinance is scheduled for the June 2 Council meeting. The preliminary plat will also be reviewed
by City Council after a recommendation from the Commission and after approval of the rezoning
and preliminary plat the applicant can submit an application for final plat.
Martin asked if lots 16, 17, 18 and 24 through 28 in a flood zone currently. Russett replied that
portions of the plat are. Martin asked if part of that stormwater management plan will help
mitigate the flooding or is it just going to be the problem of the new owners. Russett noted there
is an easement there for stormwater, but it doesn't necessarily take those lots out of the
floodplain, and the development would need to be consistent with the City floodplain
management ordinance. Additionally, the buildings would need to be built outside of the
floodplain or raised. Martin noted if someone's trying to get a mortgage on that new construction,
the lot being in the flood zone also plays a part of that, so that's still a problem for the new
owners. Russett stated the City allows some development within the floodplain. Martin agreed
but noted the homeowners would have to then get their own flood insurance, so that's just their
problem.
Martin's next question is regarding the multifamily units, are those four-plex, duplex, townhouse
style, or multistoried. Russett said they are stacked flats. At the time of site plan review, staff will
review their plans for consistency with this concept here.
Signs asked if the buildings just to the west of this area would be considered stack flats. Russett
doesn't believe so but thinks maybe the applicant can speak better to this. Martin noted those
buildings Signs is referring to are more apartments looking like a condo/apartment complexes.
Signs asked what designates a building a stack flat. Russett replied a stack flat maybe has one
entrance into the building and maybe a communal staircase and there would be three units
stacked on top of one another with a shared stairway for example.
Dyer asked if the stack flats have to be handicap accessible. Russett said they would need to be
depending on the number of units and the height of the building. Dyer asked if there'll be
elevators and Russett was unsure.
Baker asked for a quick clarification regarding the raised sidewalk and what is meant by that.
Russett noted that it is kind of like a combination speed hump and crosswalk.

Hensch stated since City Council still hasn't improved the rezoning with the RM -12 designation,
is there a problem if the Commission approves the preliminary plat and then Council disapproves
the rezoning. Russett stated City Council will act on the rezoning before the plat.
Hensch opened the public hearing.
John Yapp (Allen Homes, Inc.) noted they worked with the City staff on designing the preliminary
plat based on the concept plan. He feels they made some improvements through that process,
both in the stormwater system design and with traffic calming and more detail on the trail
connections. Regarding the question about the flood area he doesn't believe it is floodplain, it is
a stormwater management easement. Regarding the apartment buildings to the west, the
difference between those and a stack flat are in those buildings there's a center corridor with
apartments on either side, a more traditional apartment building design, stack flats are just units
off of each other, but there's no common corridor, just units on each side.
Dyer asked if the buildings will have elevators. Yapp replied they have not designed the buildings
yet so cannot answer that.
Hensch asked for clarification that none of the residential lots would be in a floodplain. Yapp
confirmed that was correct. Hensch then asked what's the cul-de-sac becoming. Yapp said it
will be a backyard for the lots in that area.
Steve Gordon (4078 Buckingham) lives just to the east of this proposed development and
wanted to discuss the pretty substantial line of trees and nature area that extends from lot 41 all
the way down to lot 61. It's about a 20 -foot area that is not farmed, and it has some wildflowers
and some weeds of course and a substantial line of trees there. He wanted to see if there was
any way that there could be some assurances that the trees are preserved as much as possible.
He understands once lots are sold they lose control, so he's just hoping through some sort of
conservation easement or parameters that say no grading and cutting down trees in that area or
a 10 or 15 foot outlot in that area to preserve the area.
Hensch asked if the trees are right along where that fence line would have been and would they
be in the back of the lots that are developed. Gordon replied they would be in the back of lots 41
through 61 and he imagines there was a fence line there at one point. There's no fence along the
back of his lot or neighbor's lots, but yes, there could have been a fence line there at some point.
Hensch stated the reason for his question is if the trees are far enough back the construction
would not interfere with those trees. Gordon noted they are on the back of the lot lines so they
are clearly within the rear yard setback area, so there would be no construction of a house or
structure in the area, but it wouldn't prevent a homeowner from cutting them down and putting a
fence along their backlot line or something like that.
Martin asked Yapp about the green squiggle line along all those lots that Gordon was just talking
about and is that the row of trees. Yapp confirmed that is the traditional landscaping symbol for
trees. Martin asked then if that means the intention is for those trees to stay. Russett replied
that is not the case, the plat wouldn't require that, it is just showing that the trees exist. Hekteon
noted there's actually a potential need for a drainage easement in that general area and that was
one of the conditions of the conditional zoning agreement. Russett correct that it was not in that
area.

Hensch closed the public hearing.
Parsons moved to approve SUB20-05, an application submitted by Allen Homes, Inc. for a
preliminary plat for Community View subdivision, a 35.21 -acre subdivision consisting of
one public lot, three multi- family lots, and 57 single-family lots located east of Scott
Boulevard and north of American Legion Road.
Baker seconded the motion.
Martin stated she would want a little more information about new construction being done in a
flood zone. Obviously, there's a disconnect as if it is a flood zone or not. As they all know,
Idyllwild was ordered to cease any further development after the after the 2008 flood, Normandy
flooded many times until there was finally a buyout, and she just feels like before they jump into
those muddy waters they have a little bit more information. Additionally, she is not totally
comfortable with the apartments, condos, stack things, or whatever. Again, she would just like to
have a little bit more information. Obviously, everybody knows that this is going to be developed
at some point, but this is the point where they can ask these questions and help to make sure
that they are going forward clearly, and not getting into a sticky situation where the City or the
State ends up needing to bail people out should the floods continue. While it is true they have
not had any anything like 2008, but the dog park certainly has flooded since then, in a very large
way.
Signs acknowledged Martin's concerns but noted it is a pretty substantial rise up throughout
those lots, 16, 17, and 18, they are going uphill pretty fast. Martin stated that is why she is asking
that question because she thinks they need to have a clear answer to know for sure.
Hensch noted when they did the rezoning, he asked that question and in looking at the topo map
it is pretty clear the residential lots were out of the floodplain. He is surprised by the confusion
because he thought that had been resolved.
Russett noted that according to the plat she has, there are lots that are identified within the
floodplain, portions of lots, and the thing is this area is going to be regraded so those flood
boundaries may change. Martin asked whose responsibility would that be to get a certificate of
elevation or to put forth a LOMA (Letter of Map Addendum), would that be the with the City or
required of the builders to alleviate any future issue with the City or State needing to bail
anybody out. Parsons believes it would be the homeowner or the developer.
Hekteon stated the City has their floodplain ordinances which developers have to comply with,
and if they don't want to comply with it, then they need to grade it get themselves to get out of
the floodplain. So it's up to them to decide how to proceed, whether they want to regrade it or
construct improvements that they do allow in the floodplain. So those things are in place and it's
up to the developer to choose how they want to proceed.
Signs pulled up the GIS mapping on the Johnson County's website and overlaid the floodplain
plan and the hundred year plan and it does pretty significantly impact the area that Martin is
concerned about from what he can tell which surprises him because he thought the typography
there was significantly bit more rise. Hensch noted however it is the developers obligation to
meet the requirements of the floodplain ordinance and the Commission has approved things
before with properties in the floodplain knowing before any construction be allowed that would
Planning and Zoning Commission
May 21, 2020
Page 11 of 13
have been mitigated
Martin understands all that but is looking towards the future of making sure that the City is then
not tasked or taxed with more water situations that then end up needing to buy out properties.
Hekteon stated the City has a more robust floodplain management ordinance than they did when
the areas around the river were developed.
Dyer asked when the floodplain ordinance was revised. Russett replied if was revised after 2008
but was unsure of the exact date.
Signs commented on Gordon's comment because he finds it funny because he's on the other
side of the fence literally and figuratively and so to that point if he was building on either side of
that line he would love to have those trees remain and suspects the developer is smart enough
to realize that would be probably a favorable amenity to pretty much anybody who wants to buy
those lots. But if there was somebody there and they didn't want the trees and they wanted to cut
them down and put up a fence, he then goes over to personal property rights, that is their right.
Hensch agrees and thinks that's an amenity and a benefit for everybody, being a native Iowan
they know that fence lines get filled with volunteer trees so the quality of those trees is likely not
real high and people will probably want to clean them or reduce some of the numbers within the
tree lines and put more beneficial species in there to encourage the growth of other things.
Hekteon noted the floodplain ordinance was amended in October of 2010.
Parsons asked if the flood concerns were because of Ralston Creek. Martin confirmed it was
and can't remember if it was last year or two years ago when the dog park was underwater
significantly for quite a while. That area has taken on a lot of water, which she understands was
part of how they rerouted Ralston Creek was so that the dog park would flood and not other
developed areas, and while things have been revised water doesn't seem to care what we say.
Dyer noted another issue as they've had a number of development projects come before them
where the neighbors complain that it's their backyards, and nothing would be built behind them.
Hensch noted the dog park was designed to be a flood, water detention area and Outlot A for
this subdivision is clearly part of that detention area for stormwater.
A vote was taken and the motion passed 6-1 (Martin dissenting).
CONSIDERATION OF MEETING MINUTES: MAY 7.2020:
Signs moved to approve the meeting minutes of May 7, 2020
Townsend seconded.
A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0.

April 10, 2020
May 25, 2020
The applicant, Pleasant Valley, LP, has submitted a preliminary plat application for the 7.6 -
acre project area, located east of Sand Road SE and south of Lloyd Ave SE in unincorporated
Johnson County. The request is to subdivide the subject property into seven lots for future
residential development and one outlot intended to be a road. The property is zoned R -
County Residential.
The proposed subdivision is located within the Iowa City/Johnson County fringe area, and
therefore, the subdivision must be approved by both the City of Iowa City and Johnson
County. The subject property is located in Fringe Area "B", outside of the City's growth area
and subject to the City's Rural Design Standards.
ANALYSIS:
Compliance with Comprehensive Plan: The Fringe Area agreement has designated this area
as Fringe Area "B" outside of the City's growth area. The Fringe Area agreement calls for
primarily agricultural uses in this area. However, the Fringe Area agreement also states that
properties zoned for a classification which is inconsistent with this Agreement, at the time
the Agreement was executed, shall retain the rights under that zoning. The Fringe Area
Agreement was executed in 2006 and the project site was zoned County Residential in 1960.
Therefore, staff finds the proposed preliminary plat to be consistent with the Fringe Area
Agreement, which is a component of the City's comprehensive plan.
Subdivision Design: The proposed subdivision splits the subject property into seven
separate lots, ranging in size between 1 and 1.2 acres. The lots will be accessed off of a
new east -west street, Pleasant Valley Drive, that will connect to Sand Road SE. The street
3
will also provide access to the Pleasant Valley Golf Course. The street conforms to the City's
rural design standards.
Storm Water Management: Stormwater management will be provided through the
installation of two detention basins. One located at the northwest corner and one at the
northeast corner of the site. Stormwater management facilities will be required to comply
with Johnson County's standards.
NEXT STEPS:
Upon recommendation of approval of the preliminary plat for Pleasant Valley Preserve
subdivision by the Planning and Zoning Commissions, the application will be forwarded on
to the City Council for review. If the application obtains approval from City Council, it will be
heard by the Johnson County Planning and Zoning Commission and the Board of
Supervisors. A decision on the preliminary plat from the Iowa City Council must be made
before the Johnson County Board of Supervisors can take final action on the application.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of SUB20-04, an application submitted by Pleasant Valley LP
for a preliminary plat of the Pleasant Valley Preserve subdivision, a 7 -lot, 7.6 -acre
residential subdivision located in unincorporated Johnson County, east of Sand Road SE
and south of Lloyd Ave SE.

Signs noted by taking off the back parts of some of those larger buildings they are going to end
up with more reasonably sized units as far as potential rentals go. Monson replied that's right
and they think it is the right way of preserving downtown but also making it viable. They to
restore these buildings and get them back into service and building the buildings behind the
current structures is the answer.
Dyer asked if the new building have windows on all sides. Monson confirmed it will.
Hensch asked if some of the upper floors of the structures are unoccupied presently or have
been for some time. Monson confirmed that's correct.
Hensch closed the public hearing.
Parsons moved to approve REZ20-02, an application submitted by Tailwind College St. IC,
LLC for a rezoning from Central Business (CB -10) zone to CB -10 with a Historic District
Overlay (CB-10/OHD) for the properties located at 109, 111-113, 115, and 117-121 E.
College Street.
Baker seconded the motion.
Townsend noted her surprise that those buildings weren't on the historic society already. She
does wonder what will happen to the ones on the other side of the street and if they are going to
try to put those on historic society. Russett mentioned they are working on a nomination to the
National Register right now for the entire Downtown District to hopefully be listed in the National
Register of Historic Places. Townsend added she would hate to see some funky high rise right
across the street. Signs stated it is already there, the one on the corner is a relatively new
structure from the 70s or 80s, so part of the blocks already been redone by the Plaza Center
One.
Signs stated it sounds like an interesting project and a way to maintain the street character in the
Ped Mall and take better advantage of the rest of that space. He agrees there's a positive to
reducing the size of some of those massive buildings with it'll probably help limit some of the
massive uses of those buildings. He is intrigued and thinks there could be some real good things
happening there.
Hensch supports this application now even more than when he was reading it because he thinks
it's very important to maintain the character and history of Iowa City and now learning that a lot of
those spaces are unoccupied anyway, that is not the best use to get more people downtown.
They need places to live, they need more businesses and more variety of businesses. Plus, this
will allow the property to be eligible for tax credits.
A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0.
CASE NO. SUB20-05:
Applicant: Allen Homes, Inc.
Location: East of Scott Blvd and north of American Legion Road
Planning and Zoning Commission
May 21, 2020
Page 7 of 13
An application submitted by Allen Homes, Inc. for a preliminary plat for Community View
subdivision, a 35.21 -acre subdivision consisting of one public lot, three multi- family lots, and 57
single-family lots located east of Scott Boulevard and north of American Legion Road.
Russett began the staff report noting this is a preliminary plat application for the Community View
subdivision. She showed the location of the subdivision and noted this area has been before the
Commission a couple times in the recent past. Currently it is zoned ID -RS.
In terms of background, the Commission should remember the annexation and rezoning that was
before them a few months ago. Those were also adopted by City Council earlier this year. Since
the approval of the annexation and rezoning to ID -RS the applicant submitted another rezoning
application requesting that this land be zoned RM -12, which is a multifamily zone, and P-1, which
is a public zone and intended use as a future City Fire Station. The remainder is 22.5 acres
would be zoned RS -5, a single-family zone. That rezoning is currently going through City Council
and the second reading of this rezoning occurred at Tuesday's meeting and the third reading
would be scheduled for June.
Russett showed the rezoning exhibit to show the location of the single-family versus multifamily
versus the public zone. She reminded them this rezoning is pending and there are several
conditions that are associated with this rezoning. First is that the development generally
conforms with the concept plan that was submitted to staff in February. Another condition is that
there are trail connections to the City park and trail networks. The next is that there's a
permanent drainage easement from the American Legion Road improvement project, and lastly
that traffic calming measures are incorporated. Russett showed the concept plan that's
associated with the condition pointing out the proposed fire station, the multifamily units and the
single-family lots. Overall there's one public lot, three multifamily lots and 57 single-family lots.
There is also an outlet for stormwater management. The plat also shows an extension of
Eastbrook Street, street connections to the existing single-family neighborhood to the east, and
the addition of a new street, Aiden Street, which would run north/south through this subdivision.
There are two trail connections, one at the western side of the plat which would connect into
Scott Park and then another trail connection at the northeast end of the subdivision which will
connect to an existing trail.
In terms of differences between the plat and the concept plan, the concept plan did have a cul-
de-sac which has been removed and staff supports the removal of that cul-de-sac. There's one
additional lot on the plat than was in the concept. Russett said these are minor changes and
staff finds that this plat does conform with the concept plan and compliance with the concept plan
will also be further reviewed at the site plan stage, particularly for the multifamily buildings.
In terms of compliance with the Comprehensive Plan, through the condition that the plat
conforms with the concept plan, there's an assurance that there's going to be a transition and
density from west to east. The concept also identifies a variety of housing types which is
encouraged by the Plan. Additionally, the subdivision shows an interconnected network of
streets which is a goal of the Comprehensive Plan.
In terms of the condition related to traffic calming, the subdivision includes three different
approaches. The first is the pavement width of the street is 26 feet wide. Then there is a traffic
circle proposed at Tottenham Avenue and Aiden Street and there's a raised crosswalk mid -block
on Eastbrook Street. All these options are agreeable to staff and they address the proposed
Planning and Zoning Commission
May 21, 2020
Page 8 of 13
rezoning condition related to traffic calming.
Neighborhood open space is also required for residential subdivisions. Russett noted this will be
addressed at final platting and dedication would be required of either 1.17 acres or a payment of
an in -lieu -of -fee and based on the proximity of Scott Park an in -lieu -of payment would be
appropriate.
Stormwater management is shown on the plat as outlot A, which is actually an existing storm
water detention easement area, the applicant is proposing to decrease the land area of this
easement but maintain the volume necessary for the proposed development. Public Works staff
has approved the preliminary stormwater calculations and the grading plan and will review the
final storm water detention designs at final platting.
The role of the Commission is to determine whether the plat complies with the subdivision
regulations and the Comprehensive Plan. In terms of next steps, the third reading of the rezoning
ordinance is scheduled for the June 2 Council meeting. The preliminary plat will also be reviewed
by City Council after a recommendation from the Commission and after approval of the rezoning
and preliminary plat the applicant can submit an application for final plat.
Martin asked if lots 16, 17, 18 and 24 through 28 in a flood zone currently. Russett replied that
portions of the plat are. Martin asked if part of that stormwater management plan will help
mitigate the flooding or is it just going to be the problem of the new owners. Russett noted there
is an easement there for stormwater, but it doesn't necessarily take those lots out of the
floodplain, and the development would need to be consistent with the City floodplain
management ordinance. Additionally, the buildings would need to be built outside of the
floodplain or raised. Martin noted if someone's trying to get a mortgage on that new construction,
the lot being in the flood zone also plays a part of that, so that's still a problem for the new
owners. Russett stated the City allows some development within the floodplain. Martin agreed
but noted the homeowners would have to then get their own flood insurance, so that's just their
problem.
Martin's next question is regarding the multifamily units, are those four-plex, duplex, townhouse
style, or multistoried. Russett said they are stacked flats. At the time of site plan review, staff will
review their plans for consistency with this concept here.
Signs asked if the buildings just to the west of this area would be considered stack flats. Russett
doesn't believe so but thinks maybe the applicant can speak better to this. Martin noted those
buildings Signs is referring to are more apartments looking like a condo/apartment complexes.
Signs asked what designates a building a stack flat. Russett replied a stack flat maybe has one
entrance into the building and maybe a communal staircase and there would be three units
stacked on top of one another with a shared stairway for example.
Dyer asked if the stack flats have to be handicap accessible. Russett said they would need to be
depending on the number of units and the height of the building. Dyer asked if there'll be
elevators and Russett was unsure.
Baker asked for a quick clarification regarding the raised sidewalk and what is meant by that.
Russett noted that it is kind of like a combination speed hump and crosswalk.

Hensch stated since City Council still hasn't improved the rezoning with the RM -12 designation,
is there a problem if the Commission approves the preliminary plat and then Council disapproves
the rezoning. Russett stated City Council will act on the rezoning before the plat.
Hensch opened the public hearing.
John Yapp (Allen Homes, Inc.) noted they worked with the City staff on designing the preliminary
plat based on the concept plan. He feels they made some improvements through that process,
both in the stormwater system design and with traffic calming and more detail on the trail
connections. Regarding the question about the flood area he doesn't believe it is floodplain, it is
a stormwater management easement. Regarding the apartment buildings to the west, the
difference between those and a stack flat are in those buildings there's a center corridor with
apartments on either side, a more traditional apartment building design, stack flats are just units
off of each other, but there's no common corridor, just units on each side.
Dyer asked if the buildings will have elevators. Yapp replied they have not designed the buildings
yet so cannot answer that.
Hensch asked for clarification that none of the residential lots would be in a floodplain. Yapp
confirmed that was correct. Hensch then asked what's the cul-de-sac becoming. Yapp said it
will be a backyard for the lots in that area.
Steve Gordon (4078 Buckingham) lives just to the east of this proposed development and
wanted to discuss the pretty substantial line of trees and nature area that extends from lot 41 all
the way down to lot 61. It's about a 20 -foot area that is not farmed, and it has some wildflowers
and some weeds of course and a substantial line of trees there. He wanted to see if there was
any way that there could be some assurances that the trees are preserved as much as possible.
He understands once lots are sold they lose control, so he's just hoping through some sort of
conservation easement or parameters that say no grading and cutting down trees in that area or
a 10 or 15 foot outlot in that area to preserve the area.
Hensch asked if the trees are right along where that fence line would have been and would they
be in the back of the lots that are developed. Gordon replied they would be in the back of lots 41
through 61 and he imagines there was a fence line there at one point. There's no fence along the
back of his lot or neighbor's lots, but yes, there could have been a fence line there at some point.
Hensch stated the reason for his question is if the trees are far enough back the construction
would not interfere with those trees. Gordon noted they are on the back of the lot lines so they
are clearly within the rear yard setback area, so there would be no construction of a house or
structure in the area, but it wouldn't prevent a homeowner from cutting them down and putting a
fence along their backlot line or something like that.
Martin asked Yapp about the green squiggle line along all those lots that Gordon was just talking
about and is that the row of trees. Yapp confirmed that is the traditional landscaping symbol for
trees. Martin asked then if that means the intention is for those trees to stay. Russett replied
that is not the case, the plat wouldn't require that, it is just showing that the trees exist. Hekteon
noted there's actually a potential need for a drainage easement in that general area and that was
one of the conditions of the conditional zoning agreement. Russett correct that it was not in that
area.

Hensch closed the public hearing.
Parsons moved to approve SUB20-05, an application submitted by Allen Homes, Inc. for a
preliminary plat for Community View subdivision, a 35.21 -acre subdivision consisting of
one public lot, three multi- family lots, and 57 single-family lots located east of Scott
Boulevard and north of American Legion Road.
Baker seconded the motion.
Martin stated she would want a little more information about new construction being done in a
flood zone. Obviously, there's a disconnect as if it is a flood zone or not. As they all know,
Idyllwild was ordered to cease any further development after the after the 2008 flood, Normandy
flooded many times until there was finally a buyout, and she just feels like before they jump into
those muddy waters they have a little bit more information. Additionally, she is not totally
comfortable with the apartments, condos, stack things, or whatever. Again, she would just like to
have a little bit more information. Obviously, everybody knows that this is going to be developed
at some point, but this is the point where they can ask these questions and help to make sure
that they are going forward clearly, and not getting into a sticky situation where the City or the
State ends up needing to bail people out should the floods continue. While it is true they have
not had any anything like 2008, but the dog park certainly has flooded since then, in a very large
way.
Signs acknowledged Martin's concerns but noted it is a pretty substantial rise up throughout
those lots, 16, 17, and 18, they are going uphill pretty fast. Martin stated that is why she is asking
that question because she thinks they need to have a clear answer to know for sure.
Hensch noted when they did the rezoning, he asked that question and in looking at the topo map
it is pretty clear the residential lots were out of the floodplain. He is surprised by the confusion
because he thought that had been resolved.
Russett noted that according to the plat she has, there are lots that are identified within the
floodplain, portions of lots, and the thing is this area is going to be regraded so those flood
boundaries may change. Martin asked whose responsibility would that be to get a certificate of
elevation or to put forth a LOMA (Letter of Map Addendum), would that be the with the City or
required of the builders to alleviate any future issue with the City or State needing to bail
anybody out. Parsons believes it would be the homeowner or the developer.
Hekteon stated the City has their floodplain ordinances which developers have to comply with,
and if they don't want to comply with it, then they need to grade it get themselves to get out of
the floodplain. So it's up to them to decide how to proceed, whether they want to regrade it or
construct improvements that they do allow in the floodplain. So those things are in place and it's
up to the developer to choose how they want to proceed.
Signs pulled up the GIS mapping on the Johnson County's website and overlaid the floodplain
plan and the hundred year plan and it does pretty significantly impact the area that Martin is
concerned about from what he can tell which surprises him because he thought the typography
there was significantly bit more rise. Hensch noted however it is the developers obligation to
meet the requirements of the floodplain ordinance and the Commission has approved things
before with properties in the floodplain knowing before any construction be allowed that would
Planning and Zoning Commission
May 21, 2020
Page 11 of 13
have been mitigated
Martin understands all that but is looking towards the future of making sure that the City is then
not tasked or taxed with more water situations that then end up needing to buy out properties.
Hekteon stated the City has a more robust floodplain management ordinance than they did when
the areas around the river were developed.
Dyer asked when the floodplain ordinance was revised. Russett replied if was revised after 2008
but was unsure of the exact date.
Signs commented on Gordon's comment because he finds it funny because he's on the other
side of the fence literally and figuratively and so to that point if he was building on either side of
that line he would love to have those trees remain and suspects the developer is smart enough
to realize that would be probably a favorable amenity to pretty much anybody who wants to buy
those lots. But if there was somebody there and they didn't want the trees and they wanted to cut
them down and put up a fence, he then goes over to personal property rights, that is their right.
Hensch agrees and thinks that's an amenity and a benefit for everybody, being a native Iowan
they know that fence lines get filled with volunteer trees so the quality of those trees is likely not
real high and people will probably want to clean them or reduce some of the numbers within the
tree lines and put more beneficial species in there to encourage the growth of other things.
Hekteon noted the floodplain ordinance was amended in October of 2010.
Parsons asked if the flood concerns were because of Ralston Creek. Martin confirmed it was
and can't remember if it was last year or two years ago when the dog park was underwater
significantly for quite a while. That area has taken on a lot of water, which she understands was
part of how they rerouted Ralston Creek was so that the dog park would flood and not other
developed areas, and while things have been revised water doesn't seem to care what we say.
Dyer noted another issue as they've had a number of development projects come before them
where the neighbors complain that it's their backyards, and nothing would be built behind them.
Hensch noted the dog park was designed to be a flood, water detention area and Outlot A for
this subdivision is clearly part of that detention area for stormwater.
A vote was taken and the motion passed 6-1 (Martin dissenting).

Applicant: Pleasant Valley LP

Planning and Zoning Commission

Page 2 of 13
An application submitted by Pleasant Valley LP for a preliminary plat of the Pleasant Valley
Preserve subdivision, a 7 -lot residential subdivision in unincorporated Johnson County.
Russett began the staff report with an aerial of the project site which is located just off Sand
Road and just west of the Pleasant Valley golf course. Next she showed the zoning map and
where the City boundaries are and what is unincorporated Johnson County. The land in question
is currently zoned residential.
In terms of background this property is in the Iowa City/Johnson County Fringe Area, Area B,
which is outside of the City's growth boundary. The request is to subdivide the parcel into seven
lots and one outlot and this would be subject to the rural design standards.
Russett next showed the preliminary plat which shows the seven lots front along the new street,
Pleasant Valley Drive, which has access off Sand Road. All the lots are about an acre in size.
She noted the portion of the plat that shows the stormwater management, the stormwater
management will be provided in two detention basins one at the northwest corner and the other
at the northeast corner and the stormwater will be subject to the Johnson County stormwater
management regulations.
In terms of consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, this parcel is outside the growth boundary
and within fringe Area B and the recommended land use direction is to maintain agricultural land
uses. However, this area was rezoned to residential in the 1960s and the Fringe Area Agreement
allows development to occur consistent with current zoning.
In terms of next steps, this will move forward to City Council and then onto the Johnson County
Planning and Zoning Commission and then finally the Johnson County Board of Supervisors.
Staff recommends approval of SUB20-04, an application submitted by Pleasant Valley LP for a
preliminary plat of the Pleasant Valley Preserve subdivision, a 7 -lot residential subdivision in
unincorporated Johnson County.
Hensch opened the public hearing
Chris Thomason (Cooper, Crawford & Associates) is representing Pleasant Valley LP and stated
Russett did a great job of presenting the project and they are in agreement with all staff
recommendations.
Martin asked what is happening on the other side of Pleasant Valley Drive that is not yet plated.
Thompson replied at this time nothing's planned, there is a larger portion of property but it's kind
of oddly shaped and they don't plan to do anything with that area.
Signs noted that the road is already there. Russett confirmed that is correct and it currently is
access to the golf course and they're following the current alignment of that drive.
Parson noted he is an avid golfer and for the longest time thought Pleasant Valley owned that
area so was a little surprised when he saw this. He asked if ownership the same, both north and
south of that drive. Hensch noted it is all, including the golf course, owned by the same family.

CASE NO. REZ20-02:
Applicant: Tailwind College St. IC, LLC
Location: 109, 111, 115, and 117-121 E. College Street
An application submitted by Tailwind College St. IC, LLC for a rezoning from Central Business
(CB -10) zone to CB -10 with a Historic District Overlay (CB-10/OHD) for the properties located at
109, 111, 115, and 117-121 E. College Street.
Russett reiterated this is a rezoning application for a historic district overlay for several properties
within the Ped Mall on East College Street. She reminded the Commission that these local
landmark rezonings ensure the preservation of historic resources in the community and require
upon approval that exterior changes to these buildings undergo historic review, which could be a
review by the City Preservation Planner or the Historic Preservation Commission (HPC). The
HPC did review this application at their meeting last week and recommended approval of the
landmark designation. Russett added although this item isn't related to the development project,
the applicant is seeking to preserve the existing buildings that front East College Street and build
a new building behind those historic structures and that review of the development, the new
buildings, would be subject to historic review upon approval of this rezoning.
Russett next showed an aerial of the site and then the zoning map. All of the area is zoned CB -
10, which is the downtown zoning designation. She pointed out property which is currently
Martinis is currently a local historic landmark.
Russett next went through the properties and showed some current photographs and some
historic photographs. First is 109 East College Street, which is the west bay which was
constructed in 1874. Next are the central bays of the Dooley Block at 111 through 113 East
College Street and the east bay of the Dooley block at 115 East College Street.
Next is a historic photograph that shows the Dooley block prior to the demolition of the central
bays. The central bays were demolished, and the Sears company built there as a three -bay

Experience and/or activities which you feel qualifyyou for this position:*
While a newer homeowner in Iowa City, I have lived here for over ten years and am passionate about old
homes and buildings. I have a great interest in history and preservation, and I would love to contribute to the
beauty and longevity of our historic areas. The care, craftsmanship, and character of our historic buildings
must be maintained so that future generations may enjoy them and learn from them.
What is your present knowledge of each advisory board you are interested in?*
I have attended past Historic Preservation Commission award ceremonies in an effort to learn more about
trusted historic home contractors in the area. I have also reached out to the HPC with questions as I care for
my older home. I am greatly interested in working with others who are passionate about historic preservation,
and I would also like to learn more about the history of Iowa City by participating in historic preservation
considerations.
Please contact the City Attorney at 356-5030 to discuss questions or concerns regarding a potential conflict
of interest. The following describe some but not all potential conflicts.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
The Housing and Community Development Commission makes recommendations to the City Council
regarding the distribution of federal CBDG/HOME funds. The general rule is that no persons who exercise or
have exercised any functions or responsibilities with respect to federally funded activities, or who are in a
position to participate in the decision-making process or gain inside information with regard to such activities,
may obtain a financial interest or benefit from a federally—assisted activity, or have a financial interest in any
contract, subcontract, or agreement with respect to a federally -assisted activity, or with respect to the
proceeds of the federally -assisted activity, either for themselves or those with whom they have business or
immediate family ties, during their tenure or for one year thereafter.
Section 362.5 of the Code of Iowa generally prohibits, with certain important exceptions, a member of a City
Board or Commission from having an interest in a City contract.
City Council Resolution # 15-300 established a policy that the following persons shall not be eligible for
appointment to Boards and Commissions:

for whom the Council Member assumes parental responsibility, mother, father, son-in-law, daughter-in-law,
mother-in-law, father-in-law, step-parent, brother, sister, step -siblings and half -siblings, brother-in-law,
sister-in-law, grandparents and grandchildren, aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, first cousin, foster parent, foster
child, persons who are parents of the same child, and persons with whom the employee is in an intimate
relationship
Res. #15-300 states that each application for reappointment to a City Board or Commission will be
considered without regard to incumbency. If reappointed, an individual would be limited to one reappointment
to a full term in order to increase the opportunities for new applicants to serve.
Council policy is not to permit an individual to serve on two Boards or Commissions at the same
time. You will be asked to resign from one if appointed to another.
Do you currently have a conflict of Interest?*
No
Do you currently serve on another Iowa City board or commission?*
No
