Staff supports these increases and recommends that City Council, in its capacity as the local Housing Authority, adopt them. Background HUD requires the local Housing Authority to establish utility allowances for Section 8 Certificate and Public Housing programs. The allowances must be based on locally-determined rationale. The Housing Authority is required to review utility allowances on an annual basis. Current allowances were established in July 1995. Definitions Contract rent -Maximum rent paid to the landlord from the combined contributions of the tenant and the Housing Authority. Fair market rent -HUD-determined rent schedule for this demographic area. Utility allowance -An amount deducted from the fair market rent to determine the maximum contract rent and the tenant's rent obligation. Impact of Utility Allowance Increases on Section 8 Certificate Tenants The recommended utility allowance increases will have a positive impact on the majority of Section 8 tenants. The tenant's share of the rent will be reduced, thus enabling the tenant to retain more income to apply towards utility expenses. There will, however, be a minimal negative impact on new tenants who may experience a reduction in the number of units available to rent (due to lower maximum contract rents). Included with this memo is an example of how the HCDC recommended utility allowances impact both existing and new tenants. The example illustrates the following impacts: 1. Existing tenants that choose not to move (i.e. renewing leases) will see a reduction in their share of the rent. There will be no change in the amount of rent received by the landlord. 2 2. New tenants, transfers, movers (i.e., approximately 125 families) will see a lower maximum contract rent which reduces the number of units available to rent and impacts unit location and desirability. Impact of Utility Allowance Increases on Public Housing Program The impact of the HCDC recommendation on the public housing program (assuming no tenant turnover) is the loss of rent revenue of approximately $15,000 per year. Any loss in rent revenue due to changes in utility allowances is not reimbursable by HUD. However, the loss of rent revenue may be partially compensated for through the tenant selection process. The loss of rent revenue could be offset by establishing utility allowances for the Section 8 Certificate program which are different than the allowances for Public Housing Programs (this is allowed by HUD). However, neither HCDC nor staff supports this action due to the lack of fairness inherent in such a system. I'll be present at your informal Council meeting to discuss this matter with you. Thank you for your consideration. Attachment TWO BEDROOM UTILITY ALLOWANCE SECTION 8 CERTIFICATE PROGRAM 1.2 Bedroom FMR 2. Utility Allowance 3. Contract Rent 4.

Current Protects: At present, work is in progress on replacing all directional signs in the Capitol Street ramp. The new signs will replace the original signs, which have over the past twelve plus years have lost their reflective ability and are hard to read, as well as to provide better vehicle and pedestrian information. This project does not include replacing the existing No Parking 6 to 10 a.m. signs throughout the Capitol ramp. Upon completion of the Capitol Street ramp, the signage in the Dubuque Street ramp will begin. The costs for replacing signage in the two ramps will be $41,527. By the end of December, it is anticipated that lighting improvement projects will begin. These projects will include the installation of additional lighting around elevator lobbies and pedestrian walkways in the deck area of both Capitol and Dubuque Street ramps. In addition, new fixtures will be installed in the stair towers to replace the original ones. The existing fixtures are the fluorescent type and do not provide the proper level of lighting especially duriug the cold months. The costs involved for these projects will be $43,340. Proposed Pmiects: Under the proposed project, the parking division will continue with a general upgrade of both the Capitol mid Dubuque Street parking garages. The work thus far been mostly replacement of original materials, however, under this next phase we will actually be adding to or upgrading the existtug facilities. Improvements under this proposal will inclndc: painting of directional/informational signs on the walls and columns; surface finish improvements to the elevators and elevator lobbies; improving handicap accessibility of lobby doors; and closing off the access to the mechanical room level of Capitol Street romp to clinfinate graffiti. The painling portion had been planned for earlier this Fall but was not scheduled due to the onset of cold weather and the fact we received only one bid. Tile prcliminaE,' cost ofthe combined project was $200,000. Inilially the program was divided into two phases - the replacement phase, which is in progress and the improvement phase, which has been packaged into one bid and is being considered at the upcoming public hearing. Our intent is that by combining all improvements into one package, the project will be easier to coordinate and may result in a better price from one general contractor. No improvements have been made to these facilities since they were constructed in the late 19?0's. Since that time, design standards for parking facilities have changed to create a user friendly facility instead of just a parking place for customers The division's goal is to help bring the Capitol and Dubuque Street ramps up to the standard set by the Chauncey Swan ramp in 1994.

The porch extends beyond the front yard and into the street right-of-way about one foot. The Board supports the construction of this porch, but its intrusion into the right-of-way is beyond the power of the Board to grant. We ask you to allow the porch intrusion because we believe that it is to the public benefit. There are several reasons the Board supports this proposal. The houses along Iowa Avenue, many dating before 1900, comprise one of Iowa City's historic neighborhoods. Since many extend onto the street right-of-way, it seems likely that they pro-date the delineation of the street right-of-way regulation. The porch addition for 928-930 iowa Avenue would make it conform more closely to its neighbors in set-back and would contribute to the more uniform appearance of the street-scape. The porch would not extend as far as the facades of the historic houses on either side extend now and would not cause any obstruction of the street right-of-way. The porch would also improve the house and return it to a more historic appearance. This, in turn, would contribute to the appearance of historic Iowa Avenue. The porch addition would be a welcome amenity for the residents as well. It is the consensus of the Board of Adjustment that this intrusion should be allowed, and we urge you to approve its construction. Sincerely, Patricia Eckhardt, Chair Board of Adjustment 410 EAST WASHIN(~TON STRF. EI · IOWA CITY. IOWA $2240-1826 · (319) 356-~000 e FAX (319) .156-$009 December 11, 1996 Dear Members of the City Council: The Iowa City Historic Preservation Commission recently reviewed plans for a proposed porch addition at 928-930 Iowa Avenue and forwarded recommendations for modifications to the Board of Adjustment. The Board approved a front yard modification to allow the porch to extend out to the right-of-way at its November 13 meeting. It has come to our attention that the proposed one-foot intrusion into to the street right-of-way requires approval of the City Council. Although the design of the porch as proposed is not historically accurate, this intrusion into the right-of-way will allow this porch to more closely conform to the setback, appearance and configuration of other porches along Iowa Avenue. The Commission recommends that the proposed intrusion be permitted. in the interest of maintaining the historic streetscape of Iowa Avenue, the Commission feels it is in the public good to grant similar permission to other owners as related to the repair and/or historically appropriate replacement of existing porches along Iowa Avenue as the need arises. Sincerely, John F. Shaw, AIA Brown Street Representative Historic Preservation Commission Prepared by: Jeff McClure, City Engineer. 410 E.
