Interests & Experiences
Experience and/or activities which you feel qualify you for this position:
I have spent my entire career working in non-profit organizations. The last 14.5 years I have
worked in affordable housing in the Quad Cities. My role as the executive director has
included overseeing all of the property management, coordinating leasing, writing and
managing 6 budgets, grant writing, purchasing properties, policy creation, starting a food
pantryfor housing tenants and the development and rehab of scattered site affordable
housing. I have worked with tax credits, HUD and HOME funds for the past 14.5 years. Since
2023 1 have written and received two tax credit/HOME fund awarded affordable housing
projects. I have also worked with the City of Davenport and the public housing authority in
Davenport for over 14 years. The best part of my job are the tenants that I serve and trying
to do all that I can to ensure they have a wonderful affordable home. My job has not only
included operations but fun tenant events, community meals and bringing education and
events to our tenants to facilitate a wonderful all inclusive community. I have also served as
the chair of the Quad Cities Housing Cluster for over 7 years- working on advocacy for
affordable housing. In addition I am also on the Iowa Housing Partnership board to promote
the preservation and production of affordable housing for all Iowans. My son and I moved to
Iowa City last September and love our new community.

Interests & Experiences
Jack Mcgrane
Experience and/or activities which you feel qualify you for this position:
Next month I will have completed a B.A. in Environmental Policy and Planning and a B.B.A. in
Business Analytics and Information Systems at the University of Iowa, giving me a unique
perspective on the intersection of urban planning, policy, and data -driven decision -making.
My coursework has included topics such as Planning Livable Cities, Natural Resource
Economics, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS)—all of which directly relate to
community development and housing accessibility. Professionally, I have supported faculty
and researchers in the health sciences through roles in IT and data management, developing
technical documentation, managing data systems, and ensuring accessibility and efficiency
across departments. These experiences have strengthened my analytical skills, familiarity
with public data systems, and commitment to community -focused work. In my role as
Garden Manager for the University of Iowa Community Gardens, I've led budgeting, funding
efforts, and sustainability initiatives focused on food accessibility and resource equity —
experiences that align with the commission's emphasis on low and moderate income
resident needs. I also serve on the University's Information Technology Advisory Committee,
where I help evaluate university -wide systems and recommend improvements —similar to
the policy review and advisory nature of this commission. I currently work as a Data Analyst
for the Office of Statewide Clinical Education Programs, where I examine problems with rural
healthcare deserts and medical access in Iowa. Combined, these experiences reflect my
interest in housing policy, sustainable urban development, and inclusive public engagement,
and I would be honored to contribute to this work in a meaningful way.
What is your present knowledge of each advisory board you are interested
in?
Housing and Community Development Commission: From what I understand, this
commission helps shape the policies and programs that support affordable housing, job
access, and services for low- and moderate -income residents. I'm especially interested in its
role connecting public input with how the city allocates resources. In my current role as a
Data Analyst, I work on identifying healthcare access issues in underserved areas of Iowa,
which gives me a helpful perspective on addressing service gaps and supporting equity,
skills I'd love to bring to this commission. Historic Preservation Commission: I know this
commission focuses on identifying and protecting places in Iowa City that have historic,
architectural, or cultural value, and it helps review proposed changes to those areas. I've
developed an interest in preservation through my studies in Environmental Policy and
Planning, especially in courses focused on land use and planning. My experience managing
the University of Iowa Community Gardens has also sparked an appreciation for how
intentional spaces can reflect and support community identity over time. Planning and
Zoning Commission: I see this commission as helping guide the city's long-term growth by
advising on zoning and land use changes. Through my coursework like Planning Livable
Cities and GIS, I've explored how cities plan for things like housing, transportation, and green
space, and how zoning can impact access and quality of life. I'd be excited to bring what I've
learned about equitable planning and data -informed decision -making to the table.

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.
Most members of City Boards and Commissions are employed, and/or have a financial
interest in one or more non-profit entities. 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. In order to navigate potential conflicts of

Potential Conflicts of Interest
Isaac Medina
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.
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.
Most members of City Boards and Commissions are employed, and/or have a financial
interest in one or more non-profit entities. 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. In order to navigate potential conflicts of
interest for certain matters, please list any and all business or non-profit entities in
which you have an employment or financial interest.
