Re: Manufactured Housing Fire Safety Program
The Fire Department, using Community Development Block Grant funds, has distributed over
650 smoke alarms and 300 f'Lre extinguishers to owners of manufactured homes since the program
began on July 1, 1994. Although the program has been incredibly successful, we feel that there
are still a number of people who did not have acces~ to transportation or were unable to come
to the Civic Center between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm to pick up the fke safety devices.
To give those residents another option to receive the smoke alarms and fke extinguishers, a three-
p6rson crew from the Fire Department and staff members from the Community Development
Division will be demonstrating the proper use of a fire extinguisher and distributing smoke
alarms and fire extinguishers to the 'residents at Forest View Mobile Home Park from 1:00 pm
to 5:00 pm on Saturday, June I0, 1995.
We would like to invite you to be a part of this festive and informative fire safety event. Also,
if you would like to volunteer a few hours of your time,. please call Steve Long at 356-5250 or
Andy Rocca at 356-5257.

Dear Wendy:
The Convention & Visitors Bureau has agreed to allow the City to pay directly to the Iowa
Arts Festival and Jazz Festival t~5,000 each for a total of 910,000 directly from the
hotel/motel tax monies that are appropriated starting in Fiecal Year 1996. Pursuant to your
request, the CiW is willing to reduce the Convention & Visitors Bureau appropriation by
92,500 each quarterly payment in FY96 to accomplish this.

CITY OF I0 WA CITY
Dear Mr. Seegmiller:
The Iowa City Design Review Committee would like to express its concern regarding the
relatively new changeable copy sign located on your downtown Iowa City branch office.
Although this building is not within the review authority of the Design Review Committee, the
Committee has an interest in the exterior design and signage of the entire downtown area.
We would like to see exterior signage in this area kept to a minimum to avoid visual clutter
and to ensure a certain design consistency between buildings.
In the downtown area, which is primarily pedestrian in nature and where any car traffic that
passes does so at a slow rate of speed, the Committee feels that exterior signage that
advertises either products or services should be limited to temporary signs displayed in
windows or door areas of the building. Permanent exterior signage should be limited to
business identification signs only. We feel that this design standard contributes to the quality
of the area by avoiding visual clutter and creates a more pedestrian, downtown feel.
We realize that this sign is permitted under the City's sign regulations, and that we cannot
require you to remove it. We would ask, however, that when the time comes to replace the
sign that you would limit the new sign to a smaller identification sign. In the meantime, we
would ask that you keep the sign copy as concise as possible and make sure that any other
new signage be limited to temporary signs in the windows of the bank.
If you have any questions, you may contact me at 354-1984 or 338-3867. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Laura Hawks, Chair

May 27, 1995
To: City Council of Iowa City
From: Carl H. Klaus, Goosetown Representative
Subject: Cemetery Expansion
I write on behalf of my neighbors in Goosetown to register the strongest
possible objections against any expansion of Oakland Cemetery to the
south/southeast.
Residents of the neighborhood with whom ! have spoken about this matter
are shocked that the Council would consider such an expansion even as a
remote possibility. One of the properties immediately south of the cemetery
is on the National Historic Register of Buildings. Other properties
immediately south of the cemetery are also of historic significance by virtue
of having been the subject of paintings by Grant Wood.
But even if the properties and the neighborhood itself were not of historic
significance, most of the private property immediately south/southeast of the
cemetery constitutes one of the few sources of low to low/middle income
housing in the City.
Thus my neighbors and I would vehemently object to easy attempt by the City
to expand the cemetery by making incursions upon our neighborhood.

Re: Downtown Policy
I am proceeding with organizing the task force on the City I~laza and will hopefully have
information to you very shortly.
This task force is important to the City Plaza, particularly with respect to future capital investment
and an assessment of maintenance projects. There are also issues other than City Plaza that I
believe are as important, if not more so, with respect to the future of our downtown. Certainly we
are all aware of the substantial public investment that has been made in the downtown. All
efforts can and should be put forth to assure that the public's investment is put to a productive
use. Evidence of the City's commitment to downtown I believe can be found throughout our
community's budget. I believe we are at an interesting point in the future of our downtown and
therefore would like to undertake some additional initiatives. While I do not have a budget and/or
other related financial proposals to support new initiatives, I sense your interest in seeing
downtown become as pedestrian-oriented as practical and remain a viable economic and
community asset.
Our downtown has many strengths and the retail/commercial mix is an important part of that
strength. Yet, we seem to see challenges to the economic future of downtown with some
regularity. While this should not be interpreted as any panic over the construction of a new
shopping center, I believe we are at an opportunity point to heighten the publids awareness of
the downtown, what it has to offer, and how we might support those efforts. The new mall will
have significant advantage in that it can provide for "free" parking and the merchants are under
the substantial control of one landlord. Neither is the case in downtown; however, our downtown
offers many other very valuable, and I believe unique, characteristics that should allow our
downtown to continue to thrive. I have asked staff to frame for me the general issues associated
with how we can continue, if not expand, promotion of downtown as our community's
commercial/retail center, as well as its focal point. I believe very strongly in the historical
significance of downtowns as community focal points, that being the downtown is often thought
of as the one point that most characterizes the community. To allow it to be lost is not in our
community's best interest, both financially as well as the overall community image. I will be
presenting to you, over time, various issues associated with this downtown initiative, but at this
point we are simply putting together a framework for future policy discussions on how we might
draw favorable attention to our downtown. The efforts in the Near Southside and investments that
are planned can support that effort.
My thoughts are general at this point, and a more formal agenda will be prepared, but I do believe
we have a unique oppodunity point. We should take advantage and pursue and solidify the
character and quality of our downtown.

Chamber of Commerce - Growth Policy
I thought you would be interested in a recent memorandum included
in my Chamber Board packet. Susan and I, as ex officio members,
receive this type of information.
MEMO
TO: The Area Chamber Board of Directors
FROM: $ohn Beckord
SUBJECT: Growth Policy Initiative
DATE: April 27, 1995
The purpose of this memo is to update you on some of the current thirdring being
discussed by the Executive Committee concerning the Chamber's goal of creating a
comprehensive growth policy and advancing a strong Chamber position. Keep in mind that
we are in the early stages of an iterative process that could ultimately result in a "product"
much different than what is described below.
Let's start with some of the goals oftlris project.
1. Develop a set of principles that will serve as a guide for the Board of Directors
concerning current and future issues related to development policy and economic growth.
2. Educate members and the general public about growth and development issues.
3. T~y to establish a consensus within the conununity concerning desirable, quality. growth.
4. Establish the Chamber as a credible, effective voice for quality. growth and economic
diversification.
Atter a set of principles has been formally adopted by the Board, several techniques will be
used to get our message out to the membership and the general public. It is important to
avoid the "report on a shelf' syndrome, where a considerable amount of effort is expended
on preparing a document that gets very little play beyond a press release and an approving
nod by the Board at a monthly Board meeting.
So, I suggest we think of this project as an advocacy "campaign"-- perhaps the Quality
Grc~th andDiversificaaon Campatgn. In addition to the development of a supporting
document to a basic set of principles, the Economic Growth Committee suggested several
ideas for advancing the Chambers view.
1. A series of presentations by individuals who bring an informed perspective to the
growth debate (such as the presentation by Panel Components Corporation President, Bob
Wersen on May 12th);
2. Presentations by myself or Board members to various community organizations and
local government officials;
3. Op-Ed articles in the local press
4. "Issue Analysis" inserts in Reflections
5. A video presentation (A premier at the annual meeting would be effective)
6. An Internet home page on growth issues
7. A Growth Summit (a large evem that attempts to focus the community's attention on
growth issues)
I encourage you to add your ideas to this List.

RE: Urban Renewal Parking Restrictions for the Main Library South Lawn
Dear Karin:
I believe Bob M~1o has kept you informed about the progress of the University's Library Area Master
Plan project. We are now proceeding with construction documents for two elements o! the master
plan, the Lbrary North Pedestrbn Walkway and the Library South Plaza projects. The north walkway
will involve closing the former Washington Street to public yahiDle access west of Madison to the
CRANDIC underpass, develophg an entrance terrace at the Library north entrance and converting the
roadway to a pedestrian walkway with landscape pavhg. The south plaza proiect will involve
development of a new 75-vehble parkhg lot south of the L~rary adjacent to the CRANDIC tracks and
developing the area east of the new lot into a tree covered levin. The parking lot will replace public
pa~<ing displaced bythe north walkway and by removal o! a small e~dsting lot south of the L~ra[y main
entrance, Permit parking will be relocated to other nearby parking lots. Copies of the reduced site
plans are attached to better explain the projects
We know there are some parking limitations required under the Urban Renewal regulations for the
south plaza project area, but we have been unable to locate documentation concerning those
requirements. The south plaza project is bounded by Madison Street and the CRANDIC Railroad on
the east and west and the Library and 8urtington Street on the north and south. We believe that the
proposed 75-vehicle lot is within those requirements, However, we would I~e to know if the City has
any concerns about the lot or knows of any problems of conformance to the Urban Renewal
regulations.
We intend to bid the parking lot about the middle of June so we need to know very soon it there are
any problems. We would appreciate hearfig from you one way or the other as soon as you can reply,
Sincerely Yours,
~R~hard E, G~son,

MINUTES OF ~ JOINT MEETING OF TItE JOHNSON COUNTY
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND THE IOWA CITY COUNCIL - WITH
CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS OF CITIES WITHIN IOHNSON COUNTY:
MAY 11, 1995
Chairperson Duffy called the joint meeting to order in the $ohnson County
Administration Building at 5:30 p.m. Supervisors present were: Joseph Bolkcom, Sally
Stutsman, Charles Duffy, Stephen Lacina, and Don Sehr. City of Iowa City Mayor Susan
Horowitz was present along with Iowa City Council members: Larry Baker, Karen Kubby,
Naomi Novick, and Ernie Lehman. Absent were Council members: Bruno Pigott and Jim
Throgmorton.
The following were also present: Coralville: Mayor Allan Axeen. Council members
Tom Gill, Jun Fausett, Bill Potter, Henry Herwig, and Diana Lundell. City Manager Kelly
Hayworth. Iowa City: City Clerk Marian Karr, City Manager Steve Arkins, Assistant City
Attorney Bey Ogren, and Economic Development Coordinator David Schoon. Lone

Iohnson County: County Attorney Pat White. Board of Supervisors Administrative
Assistant Carol Peters. Iowa City Area Chamber of Commerce President John Beckord.
Citizen Charley Grunewald.
Duffy said the joint meeting was called to discuss the idea of implementing a local
option sales tax. He said the meeting is for informational purposes, and to allow people to
discuss the pros and cons. Horowitz said she felt it would be better if everyone got
together and listened to each other, rather than hearing rumors about what each other said
concerning this controversial subject. She said they have been asked by some citizens and
cities about putting the sales tax to a vote. She said a packet of information was mailed
out, which they thought contained all of the relevant information about the local option
sales tax, but it was later found not to be totally complete. She said the meeting is
infornmional, so the meeting's participants can get the information back to the citizens
and a decision can be made of whether to put the issue on the ballot. She asked if there
were any corrections to the material. Karr said there was a question raised about when
the election could be held, and the packet failed to state that the local option sales tax can
only be voted on at a State General Election or a Special Election. Karr said therefore,
the issue cannot be on a ballot for a city election. She said this is from Chapter 422B of
the Code of Iowa. She said this omission was brought to light today.
Horowitz said the Iowa City Council has suggested putting the issue on the ballot so
the citizens can determine whether or not they want the sales tax. She said Iowa City is
contiguous to North Liberty, Coralville, University Heights, and I-rdls. Kubby clarified
that some, but not all members of the Iowa City Council suggested putting the issue on
Joint Meeting of Board oF Supervisors/Iowa City Council Minutes, Subject to Approval:
May II, 1995/page 2
the ballot. Horowitz said they have not voted on the issue yet, but some members have
requested we do so. Tom Gill said it one of the contiguous cities decided they do not
want to put the issue on the ballot, and Iowa City does put it on the ballot, the other cities
would have to vote on the issue whether or not they wanted to do so. He asked if the
other city would then have to pay for the election even if they do not want one. Horowitz
said she thought yes, but asked Karr to confirm the answer. Karr said the information she
received today states that the issue is guided by population, and if triggered by Iowa City,
each city would have to pay the costs for the special election, but noted she has not been
able to confirm this yet. Novick asked if the issue has to be on the ballot everywhere in
the County, even in unincorporated areas. Horowitz said yes. Lundell asked what would
happen if Iowa City approves the tax, but all the unincorporated areas and small towns
vote it down. Horowitz said as she understands the issue, the taxes are population based.
Gill said the contiguous cities that turn the tax down would be obligated to have the tax
for a year, but they then could opt out after the first year.
Horowitz said she understands that the ballot must include a statement which says that
there will be an option for repeal in oae year. Karr said the law has changed, and the tax
can be repealed after one year without having the statement on the ballot. Fausett asked if
the money is allotted by population. Horowitz said yes. Studt said not totally. Studt said
that his biggest problem is with the time time that is used for the assessed valuation,
which runs fi'om 1982 to 1985. He said, with. the exception of Iowa City, everybody
lagged behind in assessed valuations fi'om 5% to 15% or more, and noted that 25% of the
disbursement of the funds is based on the assessed valuations of a bygone era. He said he
has a problem with the State law regarding the use of the assessed valuations, but has no
feeling pro or con toward the sales tax. C-rover asked if the valuation dates have been
updated.. Horowitz said not to her knowledge. Bolkcom asked if they could find out if
they have changed. Horowitz asked Karr if the assessed valuation dates have been
changed. Karr said she does not know.
Novick said the formula utilizes a percentage of the tax levy of the entire county, so if
a community assesses 2% of the tax of the entire County, then the tax the community gets
is 25% of the 2%. She added that it is a terrible and complicated formula. Gill asked
which census information will be used. Horowitz said it would include Coralville's and
North Liberty's special census. Saxton asked what would happen in the case where a
company's home base is in one county and a division of it is in another county. Horowitz
said that is dealt with in the information contained in the packet. Studt said the business in
the county would fall under the county's guidelines. Grover said there are certain items
which are exempt from the tax such as cars, trucks, gasoline, fuels, and maybe fertilizers.
Duffy said the item not currently subject to State sales tax, plus some other items, are not
subject to the local option tax.
Potter asked if the tax passes in the contiguous areas, but not in the rest of the County,
would the rest of the County have the tax. Horowitz said they would. Duffy said they
would not because they are non-contiguous cities. Horowitz stood corrected. Potter ~d
this would mean differing taxes depending on whether or not it passes in a given

municipality. Studt said in that in last week's election in Muscatine County two or three
cities passed the local option tax. Horowitz said it was West Liberty and Durant. Studt
thought there was another town that passed the issue. Novick said Muscatine County
passed the tax a couple years ago, and the whole county had the tax except for the three
cities. She said those cities now wanted the tax. Hayworth said Durant was recently
annexed into the county.
Lacina said the public needs to know what the benefit of the tax will be. He said many
people will be opposed to a new tax unless they can see benefits such as property tax relief
or better streets: He said if the issue goes on the ballot the uses will have to be specifically
identified. Horowitz said the uses have to be shovm, but she does not know if each
municipality needs its own specific uses stated. Novick said each city must specify their
intended use. Gill asked how this would apply to cities that do not want the tax. Kubby
said you would still have to say what you would do with the money.
Horowitz asked ifa certain percentage of the money is automatically used for property
tax relief. The consensus was no. Novick said the issue would however have to be put on
the ballot. Novick said that if everyone wants a "sunset" clause, the entire County would
have to vote for the agreed upon date. Gill said any municipality could opt out ~er a
year, and this does not have to be stated in the ballot language. Karr said a city has the
right to commit to a period of time before the tax is automatically reconsidered again.
Fleck said he is against the tax. Horowitz said they are not here to make decisions.
Fleck said he thinks the tax is regressive, and many Solon business people have
approached him saying that the extra percent will make them non-competitive with nearby
towns that do not have the 1% sales tax.
Horowitz said the information in Professor Pogue's article is interesting because one
of the points implies that any property tax relief is almost offset by the impact from the
additional sales tax. Kubby said it matters what the proportion of lower income residents
is, and how many of them are property owners. She said non-property owning lower
income citizens do not receive the direct property tax relief, but are paying a bigger
proportion of their income for the sales tax, which is unfair. Horowitz said the different
communities represented here individually need to think in terms of what that proportion
is. Kubby agreed, and said this time should be used to persuade each other to look at the
issue from different perspectives. Fausett said his perception is that Coralville will pay the
~eight on this, and the citizens of Coralville will vote against this because they do not
want to pay for other people's projects. He said they do not perceive the tax as being of
any benefit to Coralville, and the feeling is that if the tax is approved, and Coralville does
not approve it, it will probably be rescinded within a year.
Luridell asked how much a special election would cost. Karr said the cost of a special
election in Iowa City runs between $17,000 and $22,000. Lacina said the cost for a
County-wide special election for Supervisor was $19,000 to $20,000. Duffy said it was
$19,882 to be exact. Horowitz said the question is whether the special election is
Joint Meeting of Board of Supervisors/Iowa City Council Minutes, Subject to Approval:
May 11, 1995/page4
worthwhile. Deemann asked how the costs of the special election would be divided, and
more specifically how much will the cost be to North Liberty. Horowitz said the costs are
based on the actual costs for the particular city. Herwig said he understands that the tax
can be rescinded after one year without a vote. He said a city council could simply ask the
Board of Supervisors to remove the tax, and it is removed. Saxton asked if there was any
way to project the potential tax revenues for a community. Horowitz said the Department
of Revenue and Finance is the department to contact. Atkins said they worked up
conservative estimates that use 95% of taxable sales from 1993. He said their calculations
show that revenue would increase by $670,00 for Coralville; $3,900,000 for Iowa City;
$61,000 for Lone Tree; $40,000 for Oxford; $13,000 for Shueyville; $40,000 for Swisher;
$28,000 for Tiffin; $65,000 for Solon; $64,000 for University Heights: $175,000 for
North Liberty; $40,000 for Hills; and $1,700,000 for unincorporated Iohnson County.
Arkins stressed that these numbers are very conservative.
Herwig asked if the figures represent the 1% increase. Atkins said the figures are the
result of adding 1%, and are based upon a proportion by population and using the 25% tax
levy factor. Lehman asked if Iowa City decides to put the issue on the ballot, could the
County decide not to put the issue on the ballot. Horowitz said no.
Kubby asked the group to think about balancing out the fairness of the tax with
alternative ways of g.etting the job done in the community. She said the sales tax is
regressive, and hurts those who are the most vulnerable the hardest. Horowitz. said
Kubby's point is well taken, but the question is where do you get the resources to do what
needs to be done. Cn'over said lower income people are going to be hit, but many
property owners in Solon are tired of footing the bill for projects in Johnson County and
are tked of all of the mandates that come down through property tax. He said they feel
like they are paying for more than their fair share just because they are homeowners, and
they feel the local option tax would spread the burden over everyone. He said they do not
want any more taxes, but could live with a tax that is distributed over everyone in the
County.
Lehman agreed that the tax is regressive, but the issue is whether we want to let the
people in Iohnson County decide if they want the sales tax. He said as much as he
opposes the sales tax he finds it difficult to say that the people of Johnson County do not
have a right to decide the issue. Kubby said Iowa City would use the money for water and
sewage improvements, and the decisions on how to pay for this is a policy decision that
rests with the Council. She said for this reason this argument does not work for Iowa
City. She said the argument may be all fight for other communities. Noviok said any city
would be better off by not being too specific for the intended use of the money because
times will change. She said if the issue is on the ballot, the best thing would be to say that
the money will be used for future capital expenditures, so it could be used with more
flexibility. Fausett said he totally disagrees, and feels the need to specify what the money
will be used for and for how long the money will be used. He said the lax could easily
become a growing tax that will never put a dent in property tax relief. He said the issue
will be very divisive.

Potter said it does not mat~er what the areas outside of the City of Iowa City want and
the only thing they can do is express their pleasure or displeasure to the Iowa City
Council, because they are the ones who are going to decide what everyone is going to do.
Horowitz said it is not known whether the citizens of Iowa City will approve the tax, and
the Council's position is that they should let the citizens vote on it. Potter said the citizens
of Iowa City will also be making the decision for other municipalities as well, and they
would just as soon they did not. Novick said not all of the Iowa City Council Members
have decided to put the issue on the ballot. Kubby said the Board could also put the issue
on the ballot, but doubts that they would. Duffy said they would not do it. Kubby said
she is not saying they would, but it is an option. She said another option is for the citizens
who want the tax to petition the Council.
Beckord said while Iowa City may be in control to put the issue on the ballot,
Coralville's Council holds the true trump card, because even if Iowa City approves the
tax, one year from the passage of such a tax, Coralville could rescind the tax without
approval of the voters at about the time their new mall becomes operational. He said the
City would then have this massive retail base without the tax, sitting fight next to Iowa
City, which would have the tax. Herwig said whether or not to put the issue on the ballot
is an important decision. He said if the decision comes fi'om an initiative, fine, but making
that decision is difficult. He said it is difficult to understand the law, and the vote will be
on people's perceptions of the law, and 99% of them will be incorrect.
Wisor said they should forget the special election and go with the general election in
November. Horowitz said they would have to wait until the next November as the next
State general election is in a year and a half, because the issue cannot be run with a local
general election.
Studt said it would not look very good to spend money for an election that proposes a
tax. He said if a consensus is reached to put the issue to a vote, plenty of educational
work needs to be done before the issue gets put on a ballot, so people can make an
informed decision. He said they could help themselves by raising the issue at a general
election, which would save money, and taking the necessary t~e to inform people about
the tax.
Beckord said the retail people at the Chamber of Commerce are generally against the
concept. He said he feels a lot of work would have to be done to convince people of the
utility of the tax.
C-runewald said Iowa City has had too much control, and he appreciates what
Coralville is doing. He said Coralville is doing something which will help them and will
hurt Iowa City, and he is for that. Fausett said they are not intending to hurt Iowa City,

Steve Thunder-McGuire, and folk music by Mike Haverkamp and Cam

Date: June 1, 1995
To: City Council
From: City Manager
Re: Burlington Street Dam Safety
On May 25, 1995, a meeting of interested parties was held to discuss the engineers' report.
Representatives from Engineering, Traffic Engineering, Police Department, Riverfront
Commission, University of Iowa, IDOT, and the Sheriff's Office were in attendance.
Conclusions:
Sheriff Carpenter stressed that about 50% of the rescue efforts involve boats that get too
close to the down stream side of the dam. Down stream protection was not addressed
in the report.
The IDOT has little interest in participating in the expense of improving the railing along
their bridge. They might consider contributing the cost of constructing a six foot high
chain link fence to replace the railing. This would be about one half the cost of installing
an aluminum railing. All parties agreed that a chain link fence would be aesthetically
unacceptable.
The University of Iowa said that they may be able to make some financial contribution for
the improvements, but were not specific about the amount. They did not want to discuss
maintenance obligations until they are better defined.
Next Move:
NNW will develop options to provide protection on the down stream side and provide
greater detail on how the improvements are to be maintained.
When the information from NNW is complete (in about one month), this committee will
reconvene.

Re:
Riverfront and Natural Areas Commission Review
Report/Cost Estimate - Burlington Street Dam Safety Program
At its May meeting, the Riverfront and Natural Areas Commission discussed the above-referenced
report and has some preliminary comments. After lengthy discussion, the Commission has
generated the following:
1. Initial review indicates that the plan is generally a good start in the right direction.
The Commission would like to know more about who is going to participate in the planning
and decision making process.
3. The Commission would like to know how the various alternatives are to be funded.
The Commission would like to see further exploration into additional solutions to this issue,
padicularty changes or modifications to the dam itself.
The Commission requests that a member of its group be included in further meetings
and/or studies that might be conducted.
We appreciate the opportunity to participate in the planning review for this important subject and
look forward to future information. We feel that the present level of danger at the dam is going
to continue to exist and understand that there is public pressure to do something, but feel that
the planning for this issue must continue in an orderly and continuous manner.

Sales Tax
At your request a discussion of the sales tax will be scheduled for Council's work session on
Monday, June 5. Attached is the resolution passed in 1987 when the question last appeared on
the ballot. Please note the wording of the resolution includes the ballot proposition language for
dispensing of the sales tax proceeds. As you recall the question can be voted on only at a State
general election or a special City election. The question cannot be placed on a regular City
election ballot. Special elections requires proper notification to the Commissioner of
Elections/Johnson County Auditor per State Code.

RESOLUTION NO. 87-18l
RESOLUTION REQUESTING SUBMISSION OF THE QUESTION OF THE IMPOSITION OF A
LOCAL SALES AND SERVICES TAX TO THE QUALIFIED ELECTORS OF THE INCORPO-
RATED AND UNINCORPORATED AREAS OF JOHNSON COUNTY.
WHEREAS, the need exists in the City of Iowa City, Iowa, for additional reve-
nues, over and above real property tax, state and federal revenues, in order to
fund basic city services; and
WHEREAS, Section 4228.1 of the Iowa Code provides for the imposition of certain
local option taxes, including a local sales and services tax; and
WHEREAS, subsection 5(b) of said Section 4228.1 of the Code provides that the
question of the imposition of a local sales and services tax shall be submitted
to the qualified electors of the incorporated and unincorporated areas of the
county upon receipt by the county commissioner of election of the motion or
motions, requesting such submission, adopted by the governing body or bodies of
the city or cities within the county representing at least one-half the popula-
tion of the county; and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Iowa City, Iowa, is the governing body
of a city whose population constitutes in excess of one-half of the population
of Johnson County; and
WHEREAS, this City Council desires that the question of the imposition of a
local sales and services tax be submitted to the qualified electors of the
incorporated and unincorporated areas of Johnson County; and
WHEREAS, this City Council has determined that, in the event of the approval of
the imposition of a local sales and services tax in Iowa City, it will devote
$1,000,000.00 or 50% of the revenues derived from said tax each year, whichever
is less, to property tax relief, and that the remainder of said revenues will
be devoted to the maintenance and improvement of the City's program of serv-
ices; and
WHEREAS, since pursuant to Section 422B.1, subsection 7(a) the cities of Iowa
City, Hills, University Heights, Coralville and North Liberty constitute
"contiguous cities," the local sales and services tax will be imposed in all of
said cities if a majority of the combined vote of those voting in said cities
vote in favor of its imposition; and
WHEREAS, it will therefore be necessary to utilize the "contiguous cities" form
of ballot proposition, as propagated by the Iowa Secretary of State pursuant to
the Secretary's rule making power; and
WHEREAS, said form of ballot proposition allows each of the five said cities to
designate the percent or amount of local option tax revenues that would be
devoted to property tax relief, and the proposed uses that the remainder of
said revenues would be used for; and
WHEREAS, Johnson County and the other cities in the county are also allowed to
similarly designate the percent or amount of local option tax revenues that
would be devoted to property tax relief, and the proposed uses that the remain-
der of said revenues would be used for in their respective jurisdictions.
Resolution No. 87-t8[
Page 2
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IOWA CITY,
IOWA, that this City Council does hereby request the Johnson County Co~rmis-
sioner of Elections to submit the question of the imposition of a 1% local
sales and services tax to the qualified electors of the incorporated and
unincorporated areas of Johnson County, Iowa, at a special election to be held
on October 6, 1987, said tax to be imposed effective January 1, 1988.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the ballot proposition state that the proceeds
of the local sales and services tax will be applied and used as follows:
1. $1,000,000.00 or 50%, whichever is less, for debt service property tax
relief; and
2. The remainder of said revenues for maintenance and improvement of the
City's program of services;
subject to such variation in the form of the ballot proposition regarding
application and use of local sales and services tax revenue as may be
instructed by the Johnson County Board of Supervisors or by the governing
bodies of the other cities in Johnson County provided such requests are filed
with the Con~nissioner of Elections on or before July 23, 1987.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED:
That the City of Iowa City invites Johnson County and the other cities in
Johnson County to determine and designate by motion or written resolution the
percent or amount of local sales and services tax revenues that each would
devote to property tax relief, in the event the tax is imposed in their respec-
tive jurisdictions, and the proposed use of the remainder of said revenues,
provided such designation is made on or before July 23, 1987, thus affording
the County Commissioner of Elections adequate time for publication of notice of
the ballot proposition.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED:
That the Johnson County Commissioner of Elections is hereby urged to accept
such motions or written resolutions, designating the application and use of
local option sales and services tax revenues, up to and including July 23,
1987, and to include such individual designations on the ballot proposition
form for those jurisdictions.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED:

To whom it may concern:
I am writing to you as the Wellness Coordinator at the VA Medical Center in Iowa City
regarding the possible construction of sidewalks to the west of the VA Medical Center.
The city of Coralville has just recently completed sidewalk construction between 1st
Avenue in Coralville and Hawkins Drive in Iowa City. Many employees of the VA Medical
Center currently park at the Randalls Food Store in Coralville and walk to the VA for work. This
allows them the opportunity to exercise on the way to work and returning home. However,
several of the employees have complained to me regarding the lack of a sidewalk for them to walk
upon once they get past Hawkins Drive. By walking on the side of the road or in the weeds,
many of the employees have found this to be not only very difficult but also very dangerous. It is
very obvious that this area is walked upon by many as there is a well worn path alongside
Highway 6 to the Medical Center.
As such, I would like to request that a sidewalk be constructed along Highway 6 from
Hawkins Drive to the edge of the VA Medical Center grounds. By doing this, employees as well
as other citizens of Iowa City will have a safer area to walk on when they are coming to or leaving
the VA Medical Center. I understand that budget constraints may not allow this to be done but
unless it is requested, it may never be considered
Thank you for your consideration ofthis request. I£I can be of any assistance or should you
require further information, please contact me at 339-7175.

Subcommittee Reports
Ae
Housing Subcommittee - Keith Ruff reported that an article to be published in the
newsletter of the Apartment Owners Association has been drafted and will be finalized
this week. The article will address the survey on accessible housing in Iowa City
which will be done in the near future. It will explain the survey and how it will work
and will be used to solicit participation from Association members. Ruff also noted
that the survey and cover letter were nearing completion as well.
Transportation Subcommittee - Doris Jean Sheriff reported that the committee met
on April 25, 1995, and a written report of that meeting has been prepared. She
indicated that the subcommittee had spent some time discussing the addition of
accessible transit coaches to the Iowa City system, considering possible routes to
which these new coaches might be assigned. Linda Carter advised that Kevin Doyle
had provided a letter regarding the four private charter companies in Iowa and
explaining some of the problems with coordinating and providing inter-area service
among them. Marjorie Hayden Strait indicated that a lift-equipped bus would be
available at the City Open House for public demonstration. Helling further explained
the City Open House to be held on May 7 at the Civic Center and neighboring City
facilities.
Public Accommodation Subcommittee - Ed Brinton indicated that committee members
had visited two bars, Bo James and the Deadwood, working with management to
survey these establishments for accessibility. He indicated that there were enough
participants that two survey teams could be utilized in the future.
Public Relations Subcommittee - John Harshfield and Dale Helling discussed briefly the
draft brochure which had been included in the mailing, requesting final feedback by
May 10. After that, the brochure will be finalized.
Minutes of the meeting of April 4, 1995, were approved unanimously with one correction to
the second paragraph on page two to indicate the Nancy Ostrognai had called attention to the
brochure entitled "For Those Who Serve The Public Face to Face."
There was further discussion of the logo to be placed on the brochure as well as consensus
on several changes to the text of the brochure. The logo illustrated on the top of the cover

of the draft brochure was selected, with the understanding that it's lines will be bolder, that
it will be done with a true ellipse, and that either white or slightly off-white paper will be used.
In addition, the subcommittees will be listed in bold print in the text of the brochure.
There was discussion of the first draft of bylaws which was also included in the mailing.
After some discussion of the bylaws as they related to the structure of the organization, etc.,
it was agreed that members should provide their input on the bylaws to John Harshfield or
Dale Helling by May 15, 1995. It was also emphasized that this is a first, rough draft and it
is anticipated that there will be considerable further discussion and input before the bylaws
are finalized. It was also agreed that there needs to be discussion of the general structure of
the organization before the bylaws can be completed.
Peter Hallock from the Iowa Department of Transportation spoke to the group on issues
relating to public transportation and how these issues interface with the effort to make
communities more accessible. He also outlined paratransit requirements under the Americans
with Disabilities Act and the January, 1997, deadline for compliance with those requirements.
He spoke generally about how the ADA affects public transportation, emphasizing the service
standards that apply. He also provided information and clarification regarding the six-year
delay in ADA compliance requirements for private sector transportation services. Mr. Hallock
responded to several questions from those present.

° ° ° FROM TIZIE CITY MANAGER
Stephen J. Atkins
In 1994 our community enjoyed numerous accomplishments, many of which are highlighted
in this report. A significant issue considered was the process of amending our City's
Comprehensive Plan. This is an exercise undertaken every five .years, and in 1994 we
believe it was dealt with in a unique fashion. In the spring of 1994, the City Council create,d
nine citizen task forces for the purpose of creating a vision, goals for our community s
future. Each task force was to review a selected topical area, such as land use and the urban
pattern of development; transportation; economic well-being; arts and cultural activities;
public safety, etc. In order to utilize citizen involvement early in this review process, the
City Council advertised and received expressions of interest to participate from over 130
Iowa City citizens. The City Council selected 80 citizens to serve on these visionary task
forces. This process was called Beyond 2000 in recognition of the amendment process for
our comprehensive plan. The reports from the task forces were presented to City standing
committees/commissions for their review and comment and will ultimately be incorporated
into the Comprehensive Plan Update. This direct citizen involvement through the work of
these task forces will serve as the foundation f,~r our community's future planning. Rather
than the more traditional approach of preparation of reports and other information for our
Planning and Zoning Commission and a series of public hearings to achieve citizen input,
the City Council sought to secure input early on. This task force visioning will provide a
significant new involvement by our citizens in determining our community's future. Public
hearings will be held as we traditionally do in order to provide additional citizen
participation.
Also, a nine-member City Charter Commission was appointed and recommendations on
amendments to the Charter were made. These recommendations were ultimately
incorporated into a charter ordinance amendment which the Council approved.
Two major community issues - our community Comprehensive Plan and City Charter -
were reviewed by citizens during 1994 and their recommendations will be incorporated into
our future planning. We look forward to 1995 and beyond as we work to implement the
goals of our citizens as expressed through the policies of the City Council.
SPECIAL EVENT
In September the Senior Center joined
communities across the nation in
commemorating the 50th anniversary of
World War II. Because of its
involvement, the Department of the
Army declared Iowa City to be a
commemorative community and the
Senior Center to be tile primary site of
activities and programs.
There are 1900 Johnson County veterans
who represent the men and women of
our community who lost their lives to
support our belief in freedom from want
and freedom from fear, freedom of
speech and freedom of worship.
The September World War It
remembrance began with festMties
which included Congressman Jim Leach
as tile prh'tcipal speaker, a color guard of
World War II veterans, a stage door
canteen, USO dance and entertainment.
Veterans brought their spouses, children
and grandchildren.
Community leaders conducted series on
the literature of World War I1, the
movies, humanities, the cartoons of Bill
Maulden, the Presidents, radio
memories, Broadway plays, Ernie Pyle,
and the Lasansky Nazi drawings.
.,. ,.~.4 ..,~ , ,.., '.,. , ~
~e month ended wi~ a planting of a
tree ~ Chauncey Swan Park with a
ceremonial plaque in honor of those who
served.
As a representative from the VA
Hospital read tile names of the 75 men
who died, a bugle played taps. It was a
moving memorial to the men and
women who fought for the principles we
believe in and take for granted.
This event was particularly meaningful
to the older members of our community
whose lives had been touched and
changed forever by the war. With the
financial help of the Iowa Humanities
Board and the First National Bank, the
month's activities were videotaped so
that the children of our community can
learn and appreciate the sacrifices their
grandparents made.
OVERVIEW
PUBLIC SAFETY
Fire Department Update
The Iowa City Fire Department responded
to over 2,800 calls for help during 1994.
The Fire Department responds to medical,
fire, and hazardous materials incidents
with approximately 60 percent of these
being medical calls for assistance. Three
fire calls during the year staod out as most
notable largely because of the associated
large dollar loss and/or the manpower
required to extinguish them.
On September 25, the Broadway Street
Colonial Park Office building suffered
more than $600,000 damage from a fire.
This fire was quickly extinguished by
crews on duty.
On May 21, a fire in an apartment building
at 1015 Oakcrest caused nearly $1,000,000
damage. Unattended cooking materials on
a kitchen stove was attributed as the cause.
A simultaneous garage fire on the opposite
side of the city stretched the Fire
Department's response capabilities, and
required assistance from several mutual
aid departments and approximately 60
firefighters to extinguish.
However, the costliest fire (more than
$1,000,000) occurred early in the year on
January 20 at Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity, 363
N Riverside Dr. Arriving fire crews
rescued six trapped occupants with
ground ladders. This fire was caused by a
short in an extension cord stretched trader
a rug.
In an attempt to turn a tragedy into a
positive learning experience the Fire
Prevention Bureau in cooperation with
Cable Television developed "Fire Safety -
Your Responsibility". This video highlights
the life-threatening events surrounding the
Phi Kappa Psi fire. The video presents
interviews with the fraternity members
and fire crews that battled the blaze.
addition, common fire safety violations are
discussed and life-saying fire safety advice
is presented. This video will be used to
educate the Greek Society and University
of Iowa students.
The fire department is continuing it s
progress into the computer age with two
ongoing projects. Firehouse software was
purchased to log incident records, training
records, personnel records, etc. This
software will streamline data gathering
and record maintenance both for daily
operations and internal planning.
Secondly, the conversion to a PC based
network will not only increase internal
efficiency but will also allow the
department to integrate and share with
other city departments as well. A generous
grant of $7,000 from the Independent
Insurance Agents of Johnson County
proved very beneficial in making the
changeover to a network system.
During 1994, the hazardous materials
personnel in Fire Department completed
the training of all mutual aid volunteer fire
departments to the hazardous materials
operations level. This training began early
in 1993 and was delivered to all Johnson
County fire departments. With the
addition in 1994 of the Solon, Coralville,
Tiffin, and Riverside fire departments, this
brings the number of firefighters trained to
the first responder level in hazardous
materials to approximately 200.
The Iowa City Severe Weather Plan
developed by the Fire Department is the
result of input and cooperation from all
City departments. The purpose of the plan
is basically twofold: (1) to implement a
system for warning all city employees of
impending severe weather so that they
may take self-protective action, and (2) to
develop procedures for city employees to
effectively respond to citizens' needs after
severe weather strikes. The plan will
undergo refinement and testing early next
year.
The Iowa City Fire Department performed
over 2,700 fire prevention inspections and
provided classes for over 250 groups
(12,000 people) in 1994. These classes
included 50 sessions of fire extinguisher
training for staff (5,000 people) at The
University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics.
Focusing on the National Fire Protection
Association theme, "Test Your Detector for
Life", members of the Fire Department
Public Education Station visited 13 private
and public elementary schools in Iowa
City. Over 4,000 students received
instruction in proper fire safety behaviors.
Nearly 2,500 K-3 students viewed the
"Sniffy the Talking Smoke Detector" skit.
The skit, which featured firefighters dealt
with three behavioral objectives: 1)
installing and maintaining smoke
detectors; 2) organizing a home fire escape
plan; and 3) crawling out of a house if it's
filled with smoke. These behaviors were
chosen because of their relationship to this
year's theme. In addition, over 1,600 4-6
grade students received an advanced fire
safety program. This year the students
watched a video called "Hunt for Home
Hazards," in which children interacted
with a video game that asked them to
locate common household fire hazards.
Once again, after each program,
firefighters went into the classrooms to
answer questions about fire safety.
Also, the Fire Department delivered over
1,300 copies of "Fire Safety for Kids"
coloring books and over 1,300 "Sparky
Activity Books" to the elementary students.
The coloring book enhances fire safety
themes and fire prevention activities
through the use of characters portraying
students in the Iowa City schools. The
"Sparky Activity Book" is directed towards
older children teaching fire safety
messages through a variety of related
activities.
Additionally, 185 teacher guides were
distributed for use in incorporating fire
safety themes in daily lessons. Fire
Prevention Week once again was extended
over a period of two weeks due to
expanded participation and involvement at
each school.
Public Education personnel again
conducted a fire safety seminar for an
eighth grade class. The course content
included the following: 1) common sense
fire prevention; 2) making and prioritizing
choices; 3) creating a safe environment; 4)
knowing two ways out of a burning
building; 5) getting help, and 6)
appropriate actions when burns do occur.
The seminar included a pre-test, program
delivery, and a post-test with a significant
increase in test scores noted. The January
American Burn Association Joumal will
contain a feature article about the class
and its measure of success.
The Johnson County Safe Kid's Coalition,
in its second year of existence, is forging
ahead with a whole new approach to
unintentional childhood iniury prevention.
The joint venture of the Fire Department
and Mercy Hospital today boasts over 115
members representing dozens of agencies
and organizations brought together to
combat the number one health threat to
children, unintentional injury. Currently,
action groups have been formed in each of
the following injury areas: 1) traffic safety;
2) occupant protection; 3) bicycle safety; 4)
fire and burn safety; 5) farm safety; 6)
household safety; and 7) playground
safety. This partnership represents the
progressive approach to environmental
safety that promises results and respect for
the entire contraunity.
The Fire Safety Trailer is also into its
second year of operation. The program
continues to target 3rd grade students and
highlights Exit Drills in The Home
(EDITH). This educational tool has proved
to be a tremendous asset to the Public
Education program. It is by far the most
popular activity in the fire safety education
arena. A "Train the Trainer" program was
also delivered to the Johnson County
Mutual Aid Association. Members of the
Association can utilize the Fire Safety
Trailer in their communities for fire safety
education.
The most experienced fire safety educator
at the Public Education Station received an
upgrade. "Sparky", the Fire Department
mascot, received a new costume. The new
costume was donated to the Fire
Department by the Knights of Columbus.
Sparky has made numerous appearances
throughout the year and continues to be a
favorite of the youth of our community.
Police Department Update
The 911 Emergency Communications
Center, located in the Civic Center,
dispatched more than 64,000 police and
fire calls in 1994.
A new Dictaphone Prolog recording
system was acquired through E9-1-1
funding. The efficiency of the system and
the ease of use and maintenance greatly
enhanced the Emergency Communications
operation. It is now possible to keep at
least 52 weeks of recording (radio and
telephonic) for less cost than 30 days of
recording using the old reel-to-reel tape
system. The information recorded on the
Prolog is readily available and accessible to
Communications workers.
Mobile Data Terminals (computers in
squad cars) allow officers to check drivers'
licenses, license plates, and warrant
information directly from the police
vehicle. In 1994 there were approximately
183,000 of these inquiries to the State
Department of Transportation. The M.D.T.
system is a very effective tool for the
police officers thereby increasing the level
of service the officers are able to provide.
The Crime Prevention Unit has been an
overwhelming success for both the Police
Department and the citizens of Iowa City.
An experienced patrol officer trained in
crime prevention assists the public with
proactive programs, as well as providing
presentations and information to the
contraunity on a variety of topics. In 1994,
over 130 presentations were given to more
than 4,000 citizens. This includes
Neighborhood Watch meetings, drunk
driving speeches to driver education
classes, talks at schools, tours of the police
department, and presentations to various
businesses and civic groups.
The Neighborhood Watch Program, which
helps residents lower crime in their
neighborhood by enhancing security and
networking with neighbors, is active in 81
areas and includes over 1400 households.
Other crime prevention programs include
Neighborhood Speedwatch, Call-A-Cop,
Operation Identification, theft/shoplifting
prevention, security analysis, robbery
prevention, personal safety, and check
fraud.
The Crime Prevention office also monitors
crimes and crime pattems in the city and
keeps patrol officers informed of this
information, so officers can make better
use of their patrol time.
The D.A.R.E. program continues to grow.
Unsolicited community support is the
current trend. Community businesses,
agencies, and the general public contact
the police department to offer support. A
local auto dealer donated a two-year lease
on a D.A.R.E. vehicle. Over 1000 students
have graduated from the D.A.R.E. core
curriculum to date. D.A.R.E. continues to
be a very strong collaborative effort.
Parents, teachers, and students continue to
ask for more of the D.A.R.E. program.
Expanding the program to other age levels
is being considered.
The second edition of the police trading
cards was made available this year. The
first edition was such a great success and
the demand for the cards so high that the
need for the second edition was fulfilled.
Again, this was significantly supported by
donations.
The newest community relations project is
the new "Safety Village" under
construction in an area next to Grantwood
Elementary School.
"Safety Village" is a miniature village with
streets, sidewalks, buildings, and traffic
lights, where 4-5 year old children learn
about pedestrian safety, fire safety, and
other applicable safety rules. "Safety
Village" is a non-profit organization
funded by private donations.
The work which the "Gang" officers began
in 1993 continued in 1994. Over
seventy-five presentations have been
conducted, reaching over 2,000 people in
our community. The presentations have
been made to a variety of groups which
include service clubs, social service
agencies, Parent/Student/Teacher
Organizations, church groups, and staffs of
various schools in Iowa City.
The "gang" officers are working with the
schools in the development of a gang
awareness program for the Iowa City
community.
The Police Department received a grant for
$981,860 under the Crime Bill to fund up
to eight additional police officers. The first
of the officers will be hired in 1995. The
Department will begin to move to a
neighborhood policing concept which will
begin to involve the community in the
decision making process of the department
as it relates to the delivery of police
services in the individual neighborhoods of
the city.
The Police Department provides crossing
guards for all approved school crossing
locations which meet the criteria for adult
crossing guards. All the crossing guards
are provided with in-house training in
reference to the proper manner of handling
their duties.
The past year has been a busy one for the
Animal Shelter. The daily hours have been
extended to 6:00 p.m. A great deal of staff
time is devoted to the care of the animals
in the shelter. The rate of adoptions has
increased, but the average stay for the
animals has also increased.
The Animal Shelter now has a second
vehicle to better serve the animal control
needs of the city.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
The Iowa City area economy continued to
grow during 1994. Employers of all sizes
announced, continued, or completed
expansion plans. National Computer
Systems completed construction of an
approximate 112,000 square foot office
expansion which will house over 210
additional new full-time equivalent
positions. American College Testing
continues with its plans to expand its
corporate headquarters in Iowa City as
evidenced by its construction of a
distribution center along Scott Botdevard.
In addition, Moore Business Forms
announced plans to create a regional
processing hub at its Iowa City facility and
to add 130 workers to its Iowa City
payroll,
New commercial developments continue to
occur throughout the city. In addition to
new multi-tenant commercial
developments, such as those being
constructed on Sturgis Ferry Drive and
Highway One West, many single-tenant
developments were constructed during
1994. The addition of grocery stores to the
area was a significant factor in the retail
sector of the commercial development
market. Two new grocery stores were
constructed and opened on the west side
of the city, while an existing grocery store
on the east side of the city undenvent a
significant expansion. Also during 1994,
two grocery store chains took the
necessary steps to begin construction of
new stores during 1995.
In response to two development proposals,
an office/retail development and a hotel,
the City Council adopted a package of
programs to assist and spur development
in the Near Southside Neighborhood. This
package includes granting property tax
exemption to qualified projects, the
development of a design plan for the area,
a commitment to invest public funds in
public amenities in the area, and the
establishment of a commercial parking
facility impact fee. The coming year should
demonstrate whether this package will
stimulate commercial and residential
redevelopment in the Near Southside
Neighborhood.
The commercial and industrial growth has
generated job growth that has kept pace
with the community's population growth.
This is demonstrated by the fact that the
population of the Iowa City area (Johnson
County) is estimated to have grown by
approximately 4.5% between 1990 and
1994 while at the same time
unemployment rates have remained low
(between 1.2 and 3.2% during the same
time period). These figures along with the
examples stated above demonstrate the
continued growth of the Iowa City area
economy.
New starts of single-family dwellings fell
off slightly in 1994 but remained above 200
for the third straight year. Although the
number of permits issued dropped by 16,
the total value of new homes rose by over
$600,000. This increase in value indicates a
continued trend toward larger homes as
square foot evaluation figures were not
increased from 1993. The year started off
very strong while interest rates remained
low, with 44 permits issued in March. As
the year progressed and interest rates rose,
new home starts declined slightly but
remained at a very healthy level.

Multi-family construction rose
substantially in 1994. Permits were issued
for the construction of 355 new units, an
increase of 51% over 1993 and the largest
number of new starts since 1983. The
biggest contributor to this increase was a
$3 million, 100-unit housing project being
developed by Southgate Development on
South Keokuk Street. The total value for
new multi-family construction for the year
was $13,500,000.

New non-residential construction posted
the most dramatic increase for the year,
rising from just over $1 million in 1993 to
just under $15 million for 1994. This
increase was lead by a $4.7 million
expansion at National Computer Systems
and a new $2.6 million warehouse and
processing facility for American College
Testing Company. Other large new
projects included a $2.2 million Cubs Food
Store and a $1.7 million branch bank
facility for the University of Iowa
Community Credit Union.
The total value of all new construction for
1994, including additions, remodelh~g and
repairs for residential and non-residential
occupancies, was $72 million.

The City Council serves as the Iowa City
Housing Authority. This program is
staffed by the Assisted Housing Division.
The division maintains three housing
assistance programs with a federally
funded (HUD) current budget as follows:
Section 8 Certificates527 units $2,167,819
Section 8 Vouchers 310 units $1,159,433
Public Housing 82 units $ 203,280
Plans and specifications for the Whispering
Meadows Housing Project were completed.
This project is sponsored by the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development and consists of thirty three
single family, three and four bedroom
houses. Total project construction cost is
approximately 2.4 million dollars and will
be administered by the Housing and
Inspection Services Department.
Construction is to begin in April of 1995
with completion scheduled for December
31, 1995. Houses are designed for handicap
accessibility, energy efficiency, and
affordability. Seven houses utilize passive
solar energy to offset a portion of the
annual heating cost. Eight different models
with variable exterior appearances were
designed to unobtrusively blend in with
the surrounding neighborhood.
A federally funded Drug Elimination
Grant in the amount of $50,000 was
administered by the Assisted Housing
Division in conjunction with
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County
and City of Iowa City Police Department.
In addition, an agreement has been
completed with Neighborhood Centers of
Johnson County to provide after school
program at Shamrock Place.
The effects of the flood of 1993 carried
over into 1994, and the Community
Development Division spent considerable
time assisting flood victims repair or
replace their homes. One of the more
challenging activities was (and is) the
elevation of manufactured homes located
in the floodplain and placing permanent
foundation piers under them as required
by the federal Flood Insurance program.
Efforts are also being made to mitigate the
effects of future floods and to provide
opportunities to help households move out
of the floodplain.
Another division project is providing
financial and other assistance to help
residents of the Towncrest Mobile Home
Park relocate. All residents must move by
June 1, 1995, when Eagle Food Stores will
begin construction of a new supermarket.

COMMUNITY AND
RECREATION SERVICES
The year has been a period of rapid
growth and enthusiasm for the
neighborhood services program. The
number of neighborhood organizations
grew from 11 to 18.
Some of the key activities of these
neighborhoods include:
Northside Neighborhood Association held
a number of very successful fundraisers
including a garden walk, house tour and
annual Northside Fair. The neighborhood
provided substantial assistance in the
rezoning of their neighborhood from
RM-12 to RNC-12 and coordinated efforts
in establishing an Historic District on
Brown Street.
Longfellow Neighborhood Association
focused a majority of their efforts on
development concerns of the ADS site on
Sheridan Avenue and held a successful
garden walk in July.
The Grantwood Neighborhood
Association continued its enthusiastic
support for the Whispering Meadows
Wetlands Park by holding a walking tour
and providing input into improvements
planned for the park. They were also
successful in establishing a trial bus route
running north/south on the east side of
town that would primarily provide
transportation to students at Southeast
Junior High, City High and Regina
schools.
Goosetown Neighborhood Association
continues to monitor the site occupied by
the Montessori School to ensure
appropriate reuse of the building. The
neighborhood's t-shirt fundraiser was very
successful and enabled them to fund a
number of projects within the
neighborhood.
Lucas Farm held their first social activity
during Memorial Day weekend at Plum
Grove Historic Site.
Those neighborhood associations formed
in 1994 are:
The Ty'n Cae Neighborhood Association
was formed primarily as a means of
providing input into the design and
development of the new parkland adjacent
to their neighborhood, Kiwanis Park. In
addition to this interest, the neighborhood
has initiated such efforts as Neighborhood
Watch, installation of traffic lights at
Highway 1 and Mormon Trek, changing
the name of a neighborhood street, and
monitoring storm water runoff in their
area.
Galway Hills Neighborhood Association
encouraged the installation of a pathway
along Melrose Avenue from their
subdivision to West High School. The
neighborhood has an interest in preserving
some of the surrounding woodlands and is
keeping informed about development
proposals. The neighborhood encouraged
the installation of a temporary traffic
signal on Melrose to alleviate congestion
from West High traffic. They have also
participated in the preliminary design
process for improvements scheduled for
West Melrose Avenue in 1996.
Walnut Ridge Neighborhood Association
assisted its adjacent neighborhood
association, Galway Hills, in installation of
the pathway, installation of the traffic light
on Melrose and is very enthusiastic about
providing input into the design of the
West Melrose Avenue improvements.
The Hilltop Neighborhood Association is
a mobile home park development that
wished to keep informed about the
commercial development plans for their
area as well as making improvements to
the street network serving their area. They
have initiated a Neighborhood Watch
program throughout the mobile home
park, developed by-laws and are focusing
on social activities to acquaint the
neighbors with one another.
Shimek Neighborhood Association
formed in response to potential street
extensions and development in their area.
They wish to become more involved as
these issues again are proposed in their
area.
The interest of the Penny Bryne
Neighborhood Association is to resolve a
potential traffic concern on Teg Drive as it
might be impacted by the connection with
Abet Avenue on the south. They have also
maintained contact with the Park and
Recreation Department to make
improvements to Willow Creek Park and
improve the safety of the adjacent
neighbors.
Friendship Neighborhood Association is
the most recent addition launched by the
interest to make improvements to Scott
Park, improving Ralston Creek that runs
through their neighborhood and keeping
informed about the activities of the
proposed Eagles grocery store on First
Avenue.
The Neighborhood Council, a consortium
of representatives from each of the
neighborhood associations, was
apportioned $25,000 by the City Council to
be used to make improvements to their
neighborhoods. The Neighborhood Council
developed the guidelines, application and
evaluation criteria for the grant funds and
will be applying for the funds in 1995.
The Office of Neighborhood Services
continues to work with the Department of
Public Works to coordinate meetings in
areas where capital improvement projects
are occurring (i.e. Rohret Road, WooIf
Avenue Bridge, Fairview/High Street
Storm Sewer). These "pre-design" meetings
allow the residents of the area to
participate in the planning and design of
the project and allow staff to learn about
the concerns of the residents prior to
actual design work.
For the Iowa City Public Library, 1994
was a pivotal year in preparing for the
library's immediate and long-range future.
Library staff, trustees and more than 20
interested citizens began 1994 with a
two-day retreat to begin the process of
writing a new Strategic Plan. The process
included drafting a new library Mission
Statement and a prioritized set of goals
and strategies that covered all aspects of
the library's programs and services to the
Iowa City community.
Development of the plan continued at a
series of public meetings designed to
solicit input from a variety of library
constituencies. At the same time, all library
staff were encouraged to join task forces to
discuss the proposed goals and strategies
and begin the process of creating
objectives and tasks to implement the plan.
Following adoption in June, the plan was
used for FY96 budget development and, at
year's end, a streamlined version was
printed and made available. The new
Strategic Plan will help guide library staff
and the Board of Trustees as they face the
challenges of new information technology,
an over-crowded building, budget
constraints and ever-increasing library use
by an information-hungry citizenry.
Amidst the intensity of planning for the
future, the ICPL Board of Trustees was
faced with another formidable task in 1994:
replacing Library Director Lolly Eggers
who retired June 30 after serving 20 years
as director.
The Friends Foundation assisted in the
plans to honor Lolly Eggers upon her
retirement. Recognizing Eggers' longtime
commitment to staff training, the
Foundation created the Lolly Eggers Fund
for Staff Development. By the night of a
gala banquet honoring Eggers (attended by
over 150 people), more than 100
contributions, surpassing $11,000, had been
made to the endowed fund.
Earnings from the Eggers Fund will help
support programs such as the library's
annual Inservice Day for employees, the
second of which was held on December 9.
A major theme of this year's Inservice Day
was improved customer service, one of the
priorities of the new Strategic Plan.
Planning for a possible expansion of the
library's current facility in downtown Iowa
City was another high priority for ICPL
staff and the Board of Trustees. Working
with a library building consultant,
virtually the entire library staff
participated in the process of developing a
building program, adopted in June, on
which to base actual building design plans.
The proposed library expansion would
include finishing the space available on the
present second floor of the building and
adding a partial third floor--for a total
growth of 28,000 square feet. Current
space in the 14-year-old building would be
nearly completely reassigned, with most
non-public space moved to the third floor.
The Board of Trustees, with funding
approved by the City Council, hired the
Minneapolis architectural firm of Meyer,
Scherer & Rockcastle to prepare
preliminary schematic design plans. The
Trustees also engaged the services of
CPMI, Inc., a local construction
management firm, to assist in the
development of the project.
The year also saw the successful
completion of the ICPL Friends
Foundation's "Funding the Future"
deferred giving campaign through which
more than $2.4 million in life insurance
policies, bequests and other forms of
deferred gifts were identified to benefit the
library. The campaign was prompted by
the $525,000 promised gift of Ellen and
John Buchanan who asked that their
commitment be matched on a 3-to-1 basis.
The Buchanans--and other supporters of
the campaign--were honored at a special
"victory" reception in April.
Meanwhile, the business of providing
library service and programs for the Iowa
City community continued to make
impressive gains during 1994.
Total circulation rose by 5.5 per cent,
reaching the 1,074,390 level for the fiscal
year ending June 30. Over 20,000 people
attended more than 800 meetings in the
library's three meeting rooms.
,
The ~forma~on Seaices depar~ent
answered over 100,000 questohs ~om ~e
public. Some of the more ~teres~ng
customers for this depar~ent were these
alpacas and their owners from ToM Hill
Farm.
During the year, the Iowa City Library
entered a new era of cooperative
programming among four of the public
libraries in Johnson County. ICPL -- plus
the Coralville, North Liberty and Solon
public libraries -- co-sponsored a booth at
the Johnson County 4-H Fair. The libraries
combined efforts to provide a wide array
of information about library service in
Johnson County.
Planning began in 1994 for a jointly-
sponsored children's Summer Reading
Program at libraries in the county. And the
Iowa City and Coralville libraries
co-sponsored the popular adult book
discussion program, "The Heartland in
Flux: Losing the Past." This was the last in
the Iowa Humanities Board's "Iowa Time
Slice" series which has examined Iowa
through the works of Iowa writers.
As a special outreach project associated
with the "Heartland in Flux" program, the
ICPL sponsored a forum on the Vietnam
War protest period in Iowa City. Ten
current or former area residents who
somehow had been involved in events that
took place between 1968-72 participated in
a panel discussion, followed by comments
and reflections by audience members. The
event received statewide attention.
Other programming highlights included
the annual "Children's Day" Iowa Arts
Festival Celebration and "Popo's Puppet
Festival," both organized by Children's
Department; the "Second Sunday Garden
Forum," co-sponsored by Community
Services department and Project GREEN;
and a luncheon speaker series
co-sponsored by the ICPL and the Iowa
City Area Science Center, Inc.
Overall giving to the Friends Foundation
during 1994 increased significantly, with
the ICPL's Centennial Endowment Fund
nearing the $1 million goal originally set in
1986. The Friends Committee -- which
sponsors used book sales and other
projects to benefit the library -- allocated
$17,700 for specific projects recommended
by library staff.
The Friends Committee's "Romance Novel
Celebration" day -- held in conjunction
with the summer's Iowa Arts Festival --
drew national attention.
While the focus of 1994 appeared to be on
the Iowa City Public Library's future as it
approaches the year 2000, attention was
also placed on the library's humble
beginnings. Planning began in 1994 to
celebrate the ICPL's first 100 years -- with
special events, a history of the library
(undertaken by Lolly Eggers as a special
volunteer project) and other activities
taking place in 1996-97.
The Senior Center was recognized over
and over on the national front.
The National Council on Aging ran an
article about the WWII activities. New
Choices magazine listed Iowa City as one of
the nine best college towns in which to
retire, specifically mentioning the Senior
Center. Senior Center TV, the volunteer
crew, received a national Mature Media
award and the Recreation and Park
Association included Senior Center TV In
its book of the eight best projects in the
United States for Seniors. The new Center
logo "everything under the sun" was
created for Older Americans' month in
1994 and chosen by the National Institute
of Senior Centers to be the senior center
older American logo appearing on posters,
mugs, t-shirts and buttons coast to coast
for 1995.
Two activities reached out to the children
in our city. One was the annual Holiday
Bazaar which sells volunteer-made crafts
to children ages 3-12 and involves seniors,
college women, parents and kids. The
other was the Partners in Reading project
which matched a senior and a South East
Junior High student, each reading the
same book, sharing thoughts and opinions,
and writing to each other about it and
about themselves.
The theater group Senior Standing Room
Only and chorus, Voices of Experience,
found joy in participating in activities they
love and shared that joy by performing
throughout the community.
Women's History Month, filled with art,
music, crafts, theater and fashion, featured
Iowa Attorney General, Bonnie Campbell,
honored older women in the community
nominated by their clubs and
organizations and celebrated Vivian
Stringer as Iowa City's woman of the year.
· · · [' ·
Financial partnerships were initiated with
the First National Bank which supported
the WWII activities, Hills Bank, which
supported Women's History Month, the
Read-In and the Health Initiative and Iowa
State Bank which supports our arts
program as were joint activities such as a
golf league with the Pleasant Valley Golf
Course and the New Horizons Band with
The University of Iowa Music Department,
West Music and Iowa State Bank.
This year as in the past the mission of the
Iowa City/Johnson County Senior Center
is to ensure that individuals 55 and older
have the opportunity to participate in a
dynamic array of activities, programs and
services which stimulate personal growth
by providing social interactions and an
exchange of skills, talents and creativity
and built a bridge from the Center to the
community.
The flood and all the damage it inflicted
dominated the news from the park system
in 1993. In 1994, much of the park system
news centered around flood cleanup and
repairs... parking lots were resurfaced, turf
areas were re-seeded and re-sodded,
thousands of tons of sand were removed,
most of the playground equipment was
refurbished, picnic shelters were repaired
and stained, picnic tables and trash
receptacles were rebuilt and/or
refurbished, over 100 dead trees were
removed (many of these were replaced,
but many more yet need to be), the softball
and baseball fields were rebuilt, and much
more.
Other park projects in 1994 included: the
installation of new playground equipment
in City Park, Court Hill Park, Wetherby
Park, and Willow Creek Park; new
handicapped parking stalls in City, Terrell
Mill, Wetherby, North Hickory Hill and
South Hickory Hill Parks; remodeling the
shelter and restrooms in Creekside Park;
constructing a new trail and bridge in the
east part of Hickory Hill Park, just off First
Avenue; and installing new basketball
units in Happy Hollow, Court Hill and
Creekside Parks. Additionally, ongoing
efforts continued to improve park
sidewalks, parking lots, shelters, trails, foot
bridges, and accessibility needs.
The Ryerson's Woods trail project was
nearly completed in 1994. The finishing
touches will be completed in 1995. The
project included two trails (one of which is
accessible to persons with disabilities), an
observation deck, a parking lot, picnic
shelter, tables and benches. It was funded
through a REAP grant from the
Department of Natural Resources.
A new and unique park neared completion
by the end of 1994. Iowa City's first
wetland park is being developed on 17
acres of donated wetland located south of
the Highway 6/Lakeside Drive inter-
section. Phase I of converting this wetland
into a park consisted of constructing a
channel and an island, constructing a
crushed stone trail, a wood boardwalk and
observation deck, storm sewer outlet,
sedimentation basins and a spillway. Also
included was the planting of native sedge
meadow seed and mesic prairie seed. An
impressive number of wetland wildlife has
already been attracted to the area, and this
is expected to continue to grow as the park
matures. Bike racks, trash cans and
benches are being added to complete
Phase I. The second phase, to begin in the
spring of 1995, will include the planting of
native wetland plants.
In a major cooperative effort, the Iowa City
Kickers and the City joined forces to
initiate the development of nine new
soccer fields adjacent to the south
wastewater treatment plant. The Kickers
contributed $100,000 toward this $240,000
proiect.
Chauncey Swan Park, located at the corner
of Gilbert and Washington Streets, was
completed in 1994. The project involved
removing the asphalt parking lot, addition
of topsoil, construction of new sidewalks
and a patio, construction of a raised timber
planter, installation of site furniture, a
drinking fountain and a substantial
amount of landscaping, including sod,
flowers, trees and shrubs.
In order to ensure that the City's park
system grows as the City grows, the City
Council passed the Neighborhood Open
Space Ordinance.
For the 14th consecutive year, through the
efforts of the Forestry Division, the City
was presented with the Tree City USA
Award. This award is given by the
National Arbor Day Foundation through
the Governor's office and the Department
of Natural Resources.
In the Recreation Division, a major
renovation of the Robert A. Lee
Community Recreation Center was
undertaken. This project consisted of new
floor tile and carpeting, furniture, window
accessories, and a great deal of paint.
Division staff continues to emphasize
programming opportunities for youth and
families through Saturday Night Specials,
Family Nights, Teen Dances, and extended
weekend hours. Efforts are made to work
cooperatively with numerous organizations
in order to offer joint programming and
eliminate the duplication of services. These
organizations include the Community
Mental Health Center, Systems Unlimited,
A.R.C., Coralville Parks & Recreation
Department, Old Capitol Skaters Alliance,
Girls' Softball, Boys' Baseball, Babe Ruth,
Kickers, Swim Club, and numerous others.
Efforts to comply with the requirements of
the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
is ongoing. Numerous individuals have
been accommodated in various programs
through sign language interpreters, etc.
Special Populations Programs have
expanded services to include a very active
Special Olympics program including two
state games and numerous district sporting
events. The department also hosted the
Iowa Conference for the Hearing Impaired
in March, 1994.
TRANSPORTATION AND
PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT
Transportation management continues to
be the goal of the Parking and Transit
Department. Ridership on the transit
buses continued at an impressive rate.
Over 1.4 million people used public
transportation in 1994. Minor adjustments
were made to two transit routes to
increase the service area.
The first year of operation was completed
with a lift-equipped bus. This bus
provides the community with accessible
service daily to four fixed bus routes. This
service was well received and usage
continues to increase.
The Farmers' Market was relocated to the
Chauncey Swan Ramp, providing a
community gathering spot on the fringe of
the central business district.
Hours of parking in the ramps continue to
be high. Demand has surpass supply in
the new Chauncey Swan ramp.
The Master Plan Study process for the
Iowa City Airport was initiated in 1994.
The end result of this study will be a
twenty - year comprehensive plan. A scope
of services for the study was developed,
several firms were interviewed and a
consultant was selected. McClure Aviation
Services will begin the planning study as
soon as a funding grant is approved from
the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA). This is projected to be January
1995. The study should take approximately
twelve months to complete.
Phases II, III, and IV of the Airport fencing
project were completed. This was a project
to fence the parameter of the Airport to
delineate the property line and improve
safety by restricting unauthorized access.
Seventy per cent of this project was
funded through a grant from the Iowa
Airport Improvement Program of the Iowa
Department of Transportation.
A grant was received from the Iowa
Department of Transportation to clean and
seal the construction joints and cracks on
Runway 12/30 and the taxi ways. The
Iowa Airport Improvement Program
funded seventy percent of the $80,000
project.
The FAA automated weather station
(ASOS) installed at the Airport over two
years ago is scheduled to be commissioned
in January 1995. It was put on official test
mode in December. Because Iowa City is
considered a priority, this will be the first
FAA weather station in the Midwest
Region to be commissioned. The $200,000
weather station is funded completely by
the FAA.
Favorable bids were received to replace the
roofs on the Airport Terminal Building
and the United Hangar. The projects will
begin in March 1995. In addition, the
Airport Ternfinal will receive extensive
rehabilitation of the exterior masonry
work.
Plans and specifications have been
developed and bids will be received in
February 1995 to build additional hangar
space at the Airport. A building to house
ten aircraft will be built. This project is
scheduled to be completed by June 1995.
Several thousand dollars of repairs were
required for the runways and storm water
drainage system as a result of the flooding
of 1993. Some of the concrete at the outer
edges of the runways was undermined
and areas of the drainage system
collapsed. This was one of several FEMA
funded City flood damage projects.
The Engineering Division schedule for
1994 was still greatly influenced by the
need for repairs to the damages caused by
the flood of 1993. In addition to these
repairs, a major project was undertaken to
provide new concrete paving, storm sewer
and sidewalks on Rohret Road from the
new Irving Weber Elementary School to
the west city limits. This phase of the
project was completed with a final
contruction cost of $421,985.00 With good
weather, the rest of Rohret Road from the
school to Mormon Trek Boulevard will be
reconstructed during the 1995 construction
season. The preliminary cost estimate for
the 1995 work is $1,375, 000.00.
Two free-standing pedestrian bridges are
being built along Rohret Road over U.S.
Highway 218 to link the sidewalks
constructed as part of the Rohret Road
paving project. Construction began in
early July 1994 and is scheduled to be
completed by the Spring of 1995. The
construction contract for this work was
awarded in the amount of $693,272.60
Construction began for the remodeling of
the Police Department lower level in the
Civic Center. Total cost of the project is
approximately $200,000 which provides for
expanded locker rooms and showers for
both men and women. The project
improves all plumbing and underfloor
waste lines and will make all restrooms
and showers accessible. With this
construction the Police Department
acquired a larger and more secure
evidence storage room, and a new fire
rated wall was constructed along the
egress corridor.
* * , EIN, ANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The City of Iowa City was able to maintain
its overall strong financial position for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1994, compared
to the prior period.
The City operates with a multi-year budget
and planning document. The three-year
.plan integrates the operating and capital
improvements budgets/financial projec-
tions with planned debt structuring. This
gives City officials the opportunity to
strategically establish property tax rates
and debt financing schedules.
A new seven-year Capital Improvement
Program was implemented in the latter
part of FY94. This is an extremely
important program that will aid in debt
planning, Enterprise Fund fee structuring
and long term pre-planning for the
Engineering Division.
The General Fund accounts for the
expenses of the following areas:
Administration, Fire, Housing & Inspection
Services, Library, Parks & Recreation,
Planning & Community Development,
Police, Engineering, Streets, Traffic
Engineering and Senior Center. The
General Fund expenditures totalled
approximately $23.4 million or 32% of the
total City expenditures of $72.5 million.
Personal services totaling $15 million
account for 64.3% of General Fund
expenditures.
The Enterprise Fund operating funds,
which are funded from users fees, charges
and tax subsidies, ended the year $700,000
greater than the previous year. Revenues
and expenses totaled $21.8 and $21.1
million, respectively.
Fee increases in Wastewater Treatment and
the Water Fund will be needed over
several fiscal years in order to pay for the
costs to bring the facilities into compliance
with federal regulations.
Iowa City continues to have the same
excellent rating on its general obligation
bonds that it has had for the past several
years. Moody's Investor's Services has
rated the bonds as Aaa. This rating is
given to those bonds adjudged to be the
best quality and carrying the smallest
degree of investment risk.
The Government Finance Officer's
Association of the United States and
Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of
Achievement for Excellence in Financial
Reporting to the City for its comprehen-
sive annual financial report for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1993. This is the ninth
consecutive year that the City has achieved
this award.
The General Fund continues to be
dependent upon property tax revenue,
accounting for over 63% or $15.6 million of
revenue.
Road Use Tax (RUT) is the second largest
revenue source, totalling $2.2 million or
9% of General Fund revenues. RUT pays
for the Traffic Engineering and Streets
Division operations.
Capital Projects continued at a very brisk
pace in FY94. Over $6.5 million of projects
were in progress or completed compared
to $7.2 million in FY93.

Example Illustrating Use of CPh
The average weekly wage in private industry for 1985 was $264. That same figure for 1992 was
$350, It is possible to inflate the 1985 figure or to deflate the 1992 figure using one of the
following formulas:
1992 figure x 1985 CPI. --) $350 x 107,6 = $268which is the 1992 average weekly wage
1992 CPI 140.3 for private industry in 1985 dollars
1985 figure x 1992 CPI --) $264 x 140,3 = $344 which is the 1985 average weekly wage

APPRECIATION
This financial plan Includes the Ideas and recommendations of many citizens, the
City Council and the City staff. During the year many suggestions are received
from citizens in the City Council hearings and informal contacts. The major
impact of the City Council upon this financial plan is in the priorities and programs
adopted by the City Council during the current year.
While other departments were intensely involved in the preparation of this
financial plan, most of the credit for the document goes to the members of the
Finance Department. Particular gratitude Is expressed to the City Manager, the
Finance Director, the Budget/Management Analyst, the Finance Secretaries, the
Document Services Center, the Data Processing Division and the Print Shop.
While we surely appreciate all contributions to this budget, it must be
remembered that the real thanks must go to the City employees, who, on a daily
basis, transform this document into the City's program of services,

City Council
City of Iowa City
Re: FY96-98 Financial Plan
Mayor and City Council Members:
As the Council is aware, for the past two fiscal years, the City has been the subject of a state-
imposed property tax freeze. With the preparation of these budget proposals, the freeze
legislation is no longer in effect. However, the state govemment has approved a new and
permanent reduction in available local property tax revenue, that being the elimination of
property tax on machinery and equipment starting in Fiscal Year 1999. The legislation includes
a 100% reimbursement from the State of lost revenue for FY97 through FY2001. Currently,
machinery and equipment amounts to approximately 4% of our available property revenue, or
$700,000 per year. With the loss of the machinery and equipment revenue, continued
expansion of State rollback on residential values, and no increase in other state aid, the
General Fund budget has little margin for growth to accommodate the effects of inflation, let
alone expansion of public services.
These circumstances have led me to propose a budget plan that is substantially the same level
of municipal services we have provided in past years. We cannot significantly expand any
General Fund financed services. There are a number of issues pending which will have a
beadng on this policy and, specifically, departments have requested approximately $1.1 million
in new positions; however, they are for all practical purposes beyond our ability to finance over
the long-term in the General Fund. Other circumstances on the horizon may also require
additional staffing, such as the Library Board's pursuit of an expansion to the library, a
proposed new art/cultural center, the addition of transit routes, the expansion of park land and
open space, etc. Other General Fund issues such as the Airport expansion and our need to
refinance our housing authority are expected to challenge our General Fund finances. The new
positions in the proposed budget involves two and a half additional personnel for monthly utility
billing (eliminates one and one-half temporary positions); a quarter time custodian; six new
police officers with salary and benefits funded from a federal grant; a forestry position funded
from Road Use Tax; and a Risk Management Specialist funded from chargebacks to all funds.
We are now able and should continue to be able to effectively and responsibly bargain with our
employees and fulfill the effects of inflation on our operational expenses. We cannot anticipate
any large cash outlay beyond our current commitments from the General Fund. General Fund
capital expenses will be reviewed and debt financing may be more appropriate. Our pension
funds, health insurance, liability insurance and other related reserves are in good condition and
allow us to meet our needs for the foreseeable future.
-1-
The enterprise funds within the operating budgets are substantially unchanged. Notably, the
water and wastewater budget have included current rate adjustments; however, final decisions
on future rates, timing, and project cost estimates for two major capital projects are pending.
These projects directly influence the budget due to changes in operational requirements as well
as debt service.
The transit budget continues to grow at a rate of expenditures dispropodionate to other City
services and the subsidy has increased accordingly. The FY96 budget shows an increase of
$165,004 over FY95 property tax subsidies for the operation of the transit budget. There is
cause for concern within the transit budget in that the Clinton administration has proposed an
elimination of the federal aid used to suppod the operational expenses. In that the operations
of transit are substantially General Fund expenditures, such increases merely exacerbate our
financial dilemma within that fund.
The refuse and landfill operations are also substantially unchanged for the purpose of this
budget plan; however, it is with the understanding that a number of policy issues are pending.
These policy issues ultimately translate into operational expenditures and with proposed
expansion of recycling, toxic clean-up, and any related DNR amendments to our landfill permit,
these budgets will need to be amended later.
The airport fund and related operational expenses will be affected by the master plan study
underway. It is likely that significant capital expenses will await your decisions in the future as
we respond to the master planning process and ultimately the overall renovation of the airport.
The budget as proposed has the positive benefit of indicating that we are capable of living
within the financial restrictions of the state; however, we are not in a position to embark upon
any dramatic changes in service levels for our community. With the state restrictions and other
potential changes in the federal financial assistance, such as reduction in support for our transit
system, we must be cautious about major new spending commitments.
We have other demands awaiting our financial resources, such as the federal stormwater
regulations which are likely to occur on the heels of the water and wastewater projects which
are now planned. Water and wastewater can be financed from the revenues generated by the
systems; however, a special utility charge from the General Fund appears to be the only option
available to us to meet these new stormwater regulations.
For a comparison for local property owners, the following summarizes the financial impact of
the FY96 budget proposals. The owner of a home with an assessed value of $100,000 in FY95
paid a City property tax of $881 on a taxable value of $68,040 (rollback factor of .680404). In
FY96 the assessed value of a $100,000 home will have a taxable value of $67,507 (rollback
factor of .675074) and a City property tax of $877. Business and industrial property are taxed
at 100% of assessment (no rollback). Utilities valuation for the first time in several years were
assessed a state rollback and therefore not taxed at 100% of value.
The tax rate for FY95 was 12.953 for City purposes and will be 12.998 for FY96. The
increases in assessed value vary and thereby direct comparisons from year to year are not
available for the purposes of determining average increases. City property taxes amount to
approximately 40% of the total property tax bill.
-2-
This budget plan is not one of significant new issues, challenges or opportunities addressed,
but merely one of maintaining our current position. Every effort should be put fodh by the City
organization and through your policies to maintain the financial strengths we now enjoy.
Therefore, we must exercise caution if service.expansion is to be considered.

FINANCIAL PLAN OVERVIEW
The Three-Year Financial Plan (the Plan) is again being used for Fiscal Year (FY) 96 through
FY98. This is a one year annual budget that meets state budget requirements and also
provides an additional two years of projections as a planning tool for City government. The
"Financial Plan Overview" discusses the basis that the financial plan has been built upon. The
Financial Plan includes only the operating budgets. The operating budget plan includes
"General Governmental Operations" and "Enterprise Operating and Reserve Funds." A
separate seven-year Capital Improvements Program (ClP) budget is included in the appendix
of this document. However, City Council will be reprioritizing the CIP seven-year plan
beginning in May 1995.
The role of a government's operating budget differs from that of a private business. Budgets
are an important internal planning tool for business. However, in government, budgets also
play an external role. A multi-year financial plan informs parties both inside and outside
government of its future objectives in providing services to its constituents.
The three year plan permits particular emphasis to be placed on property tax levies, user fee
projections, fund balances, the scheduling of capital purchases {both equipment and major
improvement projects) and debt service/bond financing costs. Rather than approaching the
budget as an annual agony, the three year planning process provides a means to meet most
funding needs at some time within the three year period. The Three Year Plan is a reliable
planning document and a management tool.
The modified cash basis of accounting has been used for preparation of the Plan because the
City maintains its daily accounting records on this basis. Therefore, revenues are recorded
when received. not necessarily when they are earned, and expenditures are recorded when
paid instead of when they are incurred. The Financial Plan summarizes the budget by major
category within each division. Actual receipts and expenditures are monitored carefully on
a line-item basis by the Finance Administration Division and the department head in charge
of each division and compared to the budget throughout the fiscal year. Department heads
are ultimately responsible for ensuring that the divisions under their control stay within
budget.

connection with insurance. The deductible/retention amounts will be reviewed once
annually by the Director of Finance and the Risk Manager to ensure appropriateness of
the amounts.
Insurance will be purchased where possible against all major exposures which might
result in loss in excess of the City's insurance reserve through the purchase of the
following types of insurance.
All risk insurance on real and personal property.
General liability insurance.

Fidelity and crime insurance.
Catastrophic workmen's compensation insur~.qce.
The City will self-insure in those instances where the cost of insurance is so high that

Property will be insured on replacement cost basis, as determined by a competent
appraisal service, against as wide a range of perils as possible. The value will be
reviewed once annually by the Risk Manager and the City's insurance advisor.
Loss prevention recommendations made by insurance companies, the state fire marshal

be filed with the Risk Manager.
The administration of the risk management policy will be a responsibility of the Risk
Manager. Such responsibility includes placement of insurance coverage, maintenance
of property appraisals and inventories, processing of claims and maintenance of loss
records, and supervision of loss prevention activities.

The property tax levy requested for FY95 is calculated based on the state imposed property
tax freeze legislation. FY96 through FY98 reflect levies based on the tax freeze being lifted.
The City could levy for Tort Liability but chooses not to and pays for this out of the General
8.10 levy. Since the City didn't levy this tax in FY93, the property tax freeze guidelines
restricted the City from requesting this tax in FY94 and FY95.

Following is a schedule highlighting the changes from FY92 through FY95 in assessed value,
state rollback, exemptions and taxable assessed value. Taxable assessed value is calculated
by applying the state rollback factor to residential value and by subtracting military and TIF
exemptions.

The State does control local growth in taxable assessed value through the rollback factor on
residential property. The residential rollback factor is tied to the growth in agricultural value
state-wide. After only a .5% decrease in the rollback factor from FY93 to FY94, the state
again, in FY95, decreased the rollback to .680404 or 6.41% lower than the FY94 rate of
.726985. The FY96 rollback factor of .675074 is .8% lower than FY95. The rollback factor
along with the maximum state imposed tax rates in the General (8.10), Ubrary (.27) and
Transit (.95) levies allows the state to control and limit taxable growth locally.
The FY96 General 8.10 property tax levy totaling 911,997,774 is used in the General Fund to
pay for the support of many services, such as police, fire, library, park and recreation services.
The levy cannot exceed 98.10 per 91000 of taxable assessed valuation per State law.
The FY96 Library tax levy of 9.27, which was voted in by a majority of the residents in 1991,
will generate approximately 9399,926. The initial levy was used to expand Library services
and continues to maintain that level of service.
The FY96 transit levy totating 91,407,146 is a "general" levy for transit use and must be
receipted into the general fund and then transferred to the Transit Fund. FY97 and FY98 are
estimated at 3% and 4.5% higher than the previous year, respectively.
The Employee Benefits property tax levy is used for General Fund employer costs of social
security (FICA- 7.65%), the Iowa Public Employees Retirement System costs (IPERS - 5.75%),
the Police and Fire Pension contributions (17.66%), health insurance, life insurance, disability
insurance, worker's compensation insurance premiums and unemployment compensation. In
FY95, FY96, FY97 and FY98 the City has or is proposing to levy the Employee Benefits tax
at 92,823,913, 92,908,280, 93,147,000 and 93,340,000, respectively. The Employee
Benefits Fund reflects the use of local Employee Benefits Retirement Fund Reserve monies to
fund part of the employer share of the Police/Fire pension contribution, approximately
$502,000 was used in FY95 and in FY96, FY97 and FY98, 9595,000, 9682,000 and
$696,000, respectively.
The Debt Service (DS) levy provides funds for the payment of the principal and interest on
general obligation bonds of the City. It can also be utilized to fund the payment of any
judgments against the City, unless other funding sources are provided. The FY96 levy
increases to 92,544,714 from 92,376,857 in FY95. The levy is projected to increase to
$2,598,997 in FY97 and $3,285,937 in FY98. New debt issues to pay for the cost of repairs
and renovation to streets, bridges, recreation buildings, etc. in FY95, FY96, FY97 and FY98
are 98.5 million (DS-91.4 million), 94.4 million (DS-91.9 million), 96.5 million (DS-96.3 million)
and 94.4 million (DS-93.0 million), respectively. The difference between the total bond issue
and the DS portion is to be funded from other funds.
GENERAL FUND REVENUES
Overall, General Fund revenues in FY1996, 1997 and 1998 increase approximately
$1,000,O00 each year. FY96 revenues are approximately 926.7 million or 4.6% greater than
FY95. General Fund revenues are summarized into nine major categories. The analysis of each
category follows:
Property Taxes - This includes the General (8.1 O), Transit (.95), Library (.27) and Ag
Land levies, The property taxes as proposed are at the maximum allowable rates as
shown above. FY96 property tax revenues are projected to be 913,811,139 or 4%
greater than FY95. FY97 is projected to increase by 3% and FY98 by 4.5%, or
914,227,471 and 14,867,843 respectively.
-19-
e
Transfer: Emplovee Benefits Levv - this property tax revenue source is receipted into
the Employee Benefits Fund and then transferred to the General Fund to pay for
benefits of employees (employer share of FICA, IPERS and Police and Fire Pension
contributions; health premiums, etc.). FY96 transfers are estimated to be $3,418,5OO
and are approximately 4.8% greater than FY95 ($3,260,877).
Road Use Tax - This is a gas tax that is received by the State of Iowa paid to the City
on a per capita basis, receipted into the City Road Use Tax Fund and then transferred
to the General Fund to pay the actual costs of the Traffic Engineering and Streets
Divisions less other revenues received by these divisions. Starting in FY96 an
additional transfer to the General Fund to fund a new forestry position will occur. This
new position is directly related to the maintenance of City street right*of-way.
State Fundin(~ - The revenue sources that come from the State of Iowa consist of
state aid, personal property replacement tax and bank franchise tax. Except for the
bank franchise tax, the State remits these revenues to the City in two equal
installments, one in December and the other in March.
All three of the revenue sources are budgeted at approximately the same amount as
actually received in FY94 and reflect no increases in future years.
Char.qeback of Services -- This revenue source consists of administrative charges to
the Enterprise Funds (Ex.: Water, Parking, Wastewater, etc.) for services provided in
the Finance and Public Works Administrative Divisions, use of the Document Services
Division, use of Central Services, Cable TV transfer to the Library and in FY95 a new
chargeback was added for the City Attorney Division.
Fines, Permits and Fees -- This category includes quite a varieW of different revenue
sources. The largest are Recreation fees, building permits and inspections, parking
fines, library services and magistrate court fines. FY96 Recreation fees include
recently approved increases. Police services include federal grant monies for six new
police officers.
Contractual Services - Included in this revenue line item is the contract for Fire
Department services provided to the University of Iowa.
Johnson County contracts with the City for the use of the Library and Senior Center
for residents who live outside the City limits of Iowa City but within Johnson County.
Hotel/Motel Tax - This revenue is from the 7% hotel/motel tax that is assessed to
those establishments within the city limits of Iowa City. Actual receipts are allocated
as follows:
Police Patrol (50%), Convention Bureau (25%), Mercer Park Aquatics (15%) and
Parkland Fund (10%). The 10% amount that goes to the Parkland Fund is further
broken down into Acquisition (7%) and Development (3%).
All Other Income - The largest two revenue sources in all other income are interest
income and transfer of parking fines to the General Fund.

Personal Services
Personal services includes salaries and benefits (health, life, disability insurance and
employer share of FICA, IPERS, and Police/Fire retirement contributions. The FY95
budget includes scheduled step increases and an estimated bargained adjustment.
Personnel costs are primarily controlled by collective bargaining agreements.
Employees of the City are represented by three unions: AFSCME (Local #183), the
Police Labor Relations Organization of Iowa City, and the Iowa City Association of
Professional Fire Fighters, IAFF, AFL-CIO (Local #610). All supervisory, confidential,
temporary and other employees who are excluded by law in Chapter 20 of the Code
of Iowa are excluded from the units and from the terms, conditions or application of
the Agreement.
The majority of City employees are represented by AFSCME. This Union is comprised
of two bargaining units, one composed exclusively of Library employees and the other
composed of employees in all other departments. AFSCME ratified a two-year contract
on July 1, 1994, and includes a 3.00% adjustment to wages in FY96 plus any
scheduled step increases.
- 22 -
Sworn police officers are represented by the Police Labor Relations Organizations of
Iowa City. The bargaining unit is composed of all Iowa City police officers. Exempt
from the unit are the police chief, lieutenants, captains, sergeants, and other
confidential, administrative, supervisory and less than half-time employees. The police
officers union agreed to a three-year contract that spans July 1, 1994, through June
30, 1997. This agreement included a 3.0% adjustment to wages in July 1994, 3.25%
in January 1995, 2% in July 1996, 2% on December 28, 1996, plus any scheduled
step increases in each fiscal year.
The firefighters are represented by the Iowa City Association of Professional Fire
Fighters, IAFF, AFL-CIO (Local//610). The bargaining unit is composed of firefighters,
lieutenants, and captains. Exempt from the unit are the fire chief, fire marshal and
battalion chiefs. The firefighters negotiated a one-year contract, July 1, 1994, and
includes a 3% adjustment to wages plus any scheduled step increases.
Employees who are administrative, supervisory or otherwise ineligible for collective
bargaining are covered by the Personnel Rules and Regulations. Some are eligible for
Civil Service. Salaries and benefits are determined by the City Council upon the
recommendation of the City Manager. Approximately 100 administrative and
confidential employees received a 3% adjustment July 1, 1994, plus any scheduled
step increases.
Commodities
Commodities mainly consist of office and cleaning supplies, and maintenance and
repair materials for buildings, streets and equipment. Supplies and materials are
projected to decrease by 1.4% in FY96 and then increase by 3.1% in FY97 and FY98.
Services and Charges
Services and Charges cover expenses for liability insurance premiums, Aid to Agencies
payments, printing and postage, various service contracts, repairs and maintenance to
vehicles, equipment and buildings, chargeback for vehicle use and replacement, and
utility costs. FY96 is estimated to increase $604,000 or 15% more than FY95. The
main reasons for the increase are reinstatement of the general fund loss reserve
payment ((;200,000) which was taken out of the FY95 budget due to the property tax
freeze; electricity, sewer and water proposed rate increases ($75,000); vehicle repairs
((;30,000); professional services ($51,000~; postal, telephone, and radio communica-
tions maintenance ($75,000).
The Aid to Agencies budget is partially funded from Community Development Block
Grant monies and the remainder funded from property tax revenues in the General
Fund. The City Council appropriates money annually to each agency. The FY96
budget is proposed to be $370,190 ((;105,000 CDBG, 8265,190 General Fund).
Human services received FY96 requests for funding totaling $433,734. The financial
plan prgvides funding in FY97 of (;378,200 ((;105,000 CDBG, (;273,200 General
Fund) and FY98 of (;391,859 (9105,000 CDBG, 9286,859 General Fund). Below is
a detailed listing of the actual funding of agencies funded from FY92 to FY94,
estimated for FY95, and proposed for FY96.

5. Contingency
The FY95 original contingency budget was 8248,890. The balance at 2-28-95 is 864,035 as
budget amendments have been processed using contingency. The City Council added
8120,000 to the original FY96 contingency of 8256',357 for a total of (~376,357. FY97 and
FY98 is set at .94% (9264,048) and .91% (9271,969) of total expenditures, respectively.
D. GENERAL FUND YEAR-END CASH BALANCE
The City separates the General Fund cash balance into a Pure Fund Cash Balance and a Reserve
Fund Cash Balance. The Pure Fund Cash Balance is that portion of the balance maintained as
working capital which is not available for allocation except in emergency situations. The Reserve
Fund Cash Balance is allocated for Parkland Acquisition/Development and Library computer
equipment replacement, AV/Public Access equipment replacement and State reciprocal borrowing
activity. (Fire Apparatus replacement reserve was moved out of the General Fund in FY95 and
established as a reserve of the Equipment Division [Internal Service Fund].)
The annual year-end cash balance minus the reserve cash balances equals the Pure Fund Cash
Balance or the General Fund's working capital position. The following chart gives the Pure Fund
Cash Balance for fiscal years 1994 through 1998.

The Pure Fund Balance is 28% of expenditures in FY94, and drops to 13% by FY98. Any
unexpected deterioration of the City's cash position will need to be monitored closely. Following
the Financial Plan Overview are schedules summarizing the General Fund cash reserve balances.
The Pure Fund Balance is used to provide for cash flow in the first quarter of the new fiscal year
because the majority of property taxes are not received until October/November and cash balances
are drawn down. The following chart shows cash flow needs or how expenditures have exceeded
receipts in the first three months of the past eight years.

The pure fund balance at year-end will provide funding for the
E, DEBT SERVICE FUND
shortfall.
This fund provides for the payment of the principal and interest due on general obligation debt of
the City. Funding is provided by the Debt Service Tax Levy and abatement transfers from various
Enterprise Funds for their capital improvements which were funded by General Obligation Bonds.
Debt Service expenses in FY96 through FY98 include proposed bond issues of 84.4 million in
FY96, ~6.5 million in FY97, and 84.4 million in FY98.
As stated in the City's Fiscal Policy, "Debt incurred as a general obligation of the City of Iowa City
shall not exceed statutory limits: presently 5% of the total assessed value of property within the
corporate limits as established by the City Assessor."
The following schedule shows the relation of Iowa City's allowable debt margin and the debt
incurred for FY90 through FY98. The total property valuation amounts are actual for FY90-FY95,
but are estimates for FY96 through FY98.

The Fiscal Policy also includes the guideline that "the debt service levy shall not exceed 25% of
the total levy in any one fiscal year." The following chart shows the debt service levy as a
percentage of the total levy for FY90 through FY98. The levies for FY90-FY95 are certified and
the FY96-FY98 are projected levies. (The State will certify the levy for FY96 in June 1995.)

F, TRUST AND AGENCY FUND
The Trust and Agency Fund budgets for Johnson County Council of Governments IJCCOG). The
JCCOG fund is an agency fund. The City acts as custodian for the fund and provides accounting
services. JCCOG provides county-wide planning assistance for transportation, human services and
solid waste planning.
G. OTHER FUNDS
Internal Service funds include the Equipment Maintenance Fund, Equipment Replacement Fund, the
Central Supply and Print Shop Fund, the Risk Management Loss Reserve Fund and the Health
Insurance Reserve Fund. The Equipment Maintenance Fund provides maintenance for all City
vehicles and equipment and rents vehicles to other City departments from a central vehicle pool.
Funding is provided from a chargeback to all departments for the maintenance services and the
rentals of vehicles. The Equipment Replacement Fund is used to replace almost all of the rolling
stock of all City vehicles. Funding is provided from a chargeback to all departments based on the
estimated replacement value at the time of replacement, The Central Services Fund covers the
operation of the general office supply inventory, the print shop, copiers, phone communications,
mail services, radio maintenance and the FAX machine. All of these functions are available to all
City departments who are charged based upon the services utilized. The Risk Management Loss
Reserve Fund accounts for the liability for all funds except the General Fund. All funds are charged
- 29 -
based on their loss experience and prorated share of the insurance premium. The Health Insurance
Reserve accounts for the actual payment of all health and dental claims. Premiums are based on
actuarially sound estimates and charged to each department,
The Special Revenue Funds include the Employee Benefits Fund, Community Development 8lock
Grant Fund (CDBG), Road Use Tax Fund, Public/Assisted Housing and Special Assessments. The
Employee Benefits Fund accounts for the receipt of property taxes related to ~mployer share of
benefits of the General Fund. Transfers to the General Fund are made from this fund,
The CDBG and Public/Assisted Housing Funds account for revenue from the U,S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development programs and is restricted in use for eligible projects as defined
by Federal regulations. The Road Use Tax Fund accounts for revenue from the State and is used
to pay for street related maintenance and planning, traffic engineering and street related
construction costs.
ENTERPRISE FUNDS
The Enterprise Funds include Parking, Wastewater Treatment, Water, Refuse, Landfill, Airport, Transit
and Broadband Telecommunications. These are primarily funded from user fees for services provided
with the exception of transit and airport, They receive most of their funding from property taxes,
federal and state grants, a General Fund subsidy, and the balance from fees. The other six funds are
self-supporting from revenue that they generate.
A. PARKING FUND
Parking rates were increased last on July 1, 1992. There are no rate increases calculated into the
three-year financial plan. Revenues for the three-year plan are flat. Parking fines are receipted into
the parking fund to satisfy revenue requirements for Parking Revenue bond covenants. If the bond
covenants are satisfied and the cash balance at year end is adequate, the revenue from fines is
transferred to the General Fund. Based on the cash balances declining from approximately
· ~1,000,000 at the end of FY95 to approximately $209,000 at the end of FY98, a rate increase
to fund operations may need to be enacted sometime within the three-year financial plan.
Parking expenditures reflect no change in staffing or operations. Transfers are approximately one-
half of the operating budget. Transfers include the funding for debt payments, parking fine transfer
to the General Fund, parking reserve for ramp repairs and an operating subsidy to the transit
operations.
Subsequent to adopting the 1996-98 financial plan, the 1985 Parking Revenue Bond issue was
refunded. 8247,000 of savings in debt service will be realized over the remaining life of the new
1995 refunding issue compared to the 1985 issue,
B. WASTEWATER TREATMENT FUND
The wastewater treatment fund reflects the most recent 35% rate increase enacted for bills on or
after March 1, 1995. Monthly billing is planned for June 1, 1995. There are no other rate
increases reflected in the three-year plan. Rates will need to be adjusted after the decision is made
on the timetable to proceed with constructing the planned 842 million of wastewater projects.
Expenses reflect no new increases in staff in the three-year plan. Transfers are the largest portion
of the operating budget, accounting for approximately 84.67 million in expenses or 62% of the
budget. Transfers pay for the debt service on revenue bonds and the sewer related portion of
general obligation bonds outstanding.
- 30 -
C. WATER FUND
The water fund reflects the most recent 40% user fee rate increase enacted for bills on or after
March 1, 1995. There are no new rate increases factored in the three-year plan. Once a decision
is made on the timetable of the new water treatment facility, rates will need to be readjusted and
factored into the three-year plan.
FY96 reflects the addition of 1 ½ full-time equivalent meter reader positions to accommodate
monthly billing. There are no other new staffing positions reflected in the three-year plan.
Transfers pay for the water portion of General Obligation debt that has been issued.
D. REFUSE FUND
No significant changes are reflected in operations within this fund. Refuse rates were last
increased in July 1992. A 19% rate increase is factored into FY96, 4.4% in 1997 and 4.2% in
1998 for curbside refuse collection fees based on the current fee schedule. Recycling fees reflect
no change in FY96, a 4.6% increase in 1997 and a 4.4% increase in 1998. These increases are
necessary to maintain the fund at its current cash balance level.
E, LANDFILL FUND
The three-year financial plan reflects no increase in tipping fees in FY96, a 1.4% increase in FY97
and FY98. There are no significant changes in operations or transfers within this fund. The $1.7
million annual transfer from the operating fund to landfill replacement reserve is used for the
construction of new landfill cells, purchase of additional landfill land, and any major capital projects
that are needed at the landfill.
AIRPORT
The Airport operating fund reflects no significant change in operations. FY95 transfers include
$136,104 to pay for hangar roof and parking lot repairs and $23,000 for debt service, The loan
repayment reflects amounts borrowed to build a new T-Hangar, an asphalt overlay project and a
major roof repair. The General Fund subsidy increases to approximately 50% of the airport
operating budget in the three-year plan, FY96 includes the final payment on the Airport share of
the 1992 GO debt - $26,913 and loan repayments.
G. TRANSIT FUND
The Transit Operating Fund reflects the addition of a new route. For accounting purposes this fund
is considered an enterprise fund, which means fees pay for the majority of the costs associated
with this fund; however, fees are one of the smallest portions of this budget. The majority of the
funding in the Transit Fund comes from a $.95 levy on all taxable property within the City of Iowa
City. This generates approximately 91.4 million a year, In addition, the General Fund subsidizes
an additional $556,000 in 1996, 9722,500 in 1997 and 9831,O00 in 1998 to operate this fund.
This subsidization has a direct impact on the General Fund operations. Less than 25% of the
revenue generated from this fund is from fees. Another 16% is received from federal, state and
local government. Starting in FY95, 990,000 per year is being transferred from the Parking Fund
to the Transit Fund as an operating subsidy. As costs and new routes are added within this fund,
the only source of funding for those new projects is from the General Fund.
The transfer out reflects an amount to the transit replacement fund which is used to pay for the
City's portion of new bus purchases,

H. BROADBAND TELECOMMUNICATIONS
This fund accounts for the Cable TV operations of the City. The funding source is from the 5%
cable franchise fee which is part of the monthly bill for Cable TV. There are no significant changes
within this fund over the three-year plan. Transfers include an operating subsidy to the Library for
cable TV of 837,300 in FY96 and an increase to ~42,700 in FY98. In addition, 810,000 a year
is transferred to the Cable TV-replacement reserve fund, which is used to replace equipment on
an as-needed basis. FY96 marks the last payment of 825,000 to the General Fund for the cable
TV costs associated with the Civic Center expansion.
RESERVE FUNDS
The revenue bond ordinance covenants require that Parking and the Wastewater Treatment Fund set
aside these special accounts:
Bond and Interest Sinking Reserves - amounts sufficient to pay current bond and interest
maturities. (Transfers from the appropriate operating fund are made monthly.)
b) Bond and Interest Reserves - balances to be maintained that are equal to the maximum amount of
principal and interest due on the bonds in any succeeding fiscal year. (Current parking balance is
8951,113 and current Wastewater balance is ~3,672,550.)
c) Depreciation, Extension and Improvement Reserve or Renewal and Improvement Reserves ~
8240,000 transferred annually for Wastewater Treatment until a balance of $2 million is reached
{current balance is 82,000,000) and $60,000 transferred annually for Parking until a balance of
8300,000 is reached (current balance is $300,0001.
Parking, Landfill, Water, Transit and Broadband Telecommunications have separate reserves for future
capital expenditures. The Parking reserve is to be used for ramp repairs/maintenance, which is
performed biannually, and for a future parking facility. Landfill's reserve is to be used for the purchase
of additional landfill land and cell construction, Landfill closure funding and a perpetual care fund. The
Water reserve is available to fund major capital improvement projects for the water piant in future
years. The Transit reserve will be used to repay loans from the federal and state governments and to
fund future bus acquisitions. Broadband Telecommunications' reserve is for future equipment
replacement.

PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL PLAN
In August, the Finance Department wdtes a manual of directions and updates all forms. The
manual contains: 1) directions for completing the forms, 2) descriptions of expenditures that
may be budgeted in a particular line item, and 3) projected prices or inflation factors for various
supplies, service contracts, vehicle maintenance service, telephone and postal services, and
office furniture and equipment.
The City Manager instructs the Department Heads on whether any changes in level of service
can be factored into the proposed financial plan. This is done before the actual budget process
stads. Changes to the financial plan are done annually dudng the budget process. All revenue
and expenditure estimates are re-evaluated and revised if necessary.
In September, the manual and forms for the next financial plan are distributed to Department
and Division Heads. They also receive salary projections, a three-year history of each
Department's/Division's actual line item expenditures, and projected revenues and costs for the
three years covered by the Financial Plan. (The Finance Department projects revenues
individually and uses a combination of inflation fadors and individual costs to project
expenditures.)
In October, the forms are returned. These include the Department's/Division's adjustments to
line item revenue and expenditure projections, their travel request, their capital outlay request,
and professional services required.
In November, the Finance Department reviews the forms and compiles them all into a budget.
All budget forms and adjustments are fo~arded to the City Manager.
By mid-December, the City Manager and Finance Department decide which modifications to
operations will be made. A tax levy is computed. Analysis is done so all funds have required
balances or zero balances. Then the Proposed Financial Plan document is pdnted.
In January, the City Council reviews the Proposed Financial Plan.
In February, the Proposed Financial Plan and a memo of Council's changes are presented to
the public. A public headng is held at least one week pdor to the final adoption.
In March, the final Financial Plan is adopted. The State of Iowa requires a one-year budget
to be adopted by March 15 of each year. The applicable year in Iowa City's three-year
Financial Plan is adopted as the annual budget to satisfy State requirements.
The Finance Department monitors the status of actual revenues and expenses compared to
budget. Analysis is done on a line-item basis within each division. Ultimate responsibility for
a division's budget rests with the department head in charge of that division. The Finance
Department staff normally works directly with department/division management to resolve any
problems within the line item budget.
139 -
PROCESS TO AMEND THE FINANCIAL PLAN
Departments and Divisions analyze their monthly financial reports to determine if a budget
amendment is needed for expenditures that were not included in the budget, for example,
capital outlay, repairs to equipment and buildings, wages for temporary employees and
overtime related to work assignments outside of the budgeted staffing level. On the
amendment requests, departments/divisions explain the reason for requesting additional funds
and also suggest a funding source for it:
1) Subtract budgeted funds from another item within their budget.
2) Show that additional revenue will be received.
3) Request funds from the "contingency" (see definition in Budget Glossary).
The requests are reviewed by the Budg.et/Management Analyst for accuracy. Then, the
Finance Director and City Manager approve or deny the request. Upon approval, the
amendment is added to the budget so that the next monthly Budget Comparison Report
includes it. Amendment requests are not accepted after a date set by the Finance Department
in order to compile necessary reports for Council action on the amended budget.
By May 31 of each year, as required by the State, the City Council holds a public headng and
approves the amended budget for the year ending June 30. Statements of budget and actual
revenues and expenditures are published by September 30 for the fiscal year ended June 30.
They are also presented for the City as a whole in the notes to that year's Financial Report.
Legal compliance is met if actual expenditures do not exceed the budgeted expenditures by
program areas: community protection, home and community environment, human development
and policy and administration.

Dear Curt and Nancy:
CITY OF I0 WA CITY
Thank you for your letter to the members of the City Council about the City's efforts to
gain the Yeggys' compliance with the nuisance code. I have talked with attorneys in the
City Attorney's Office, and have learned of the support and assistance you have provided
over the years in the code enforcement efforts.
I think I understand your frustration with the slowness of the process, namely the steps
forward of success when the property was cleaned up, and the steps backward when the
Yeggys resumed the junkyard operations. I also want you to know that the City Council
appreciates your continuing efforts to work with the Housing and Inspection Services
officers to abate the nuisance. So also, we all sympathize with the stress you and your
family experience as a result of the illegal operation of the junkyard.
Last spring, when the Court found Wilfred Yeggy in contempt of the earlier injunction and
Yeggy appealed to the Iowa Supreme Court, the City staff met to decide what route would
be most effective in clearing the junkyard. Staff decided to issue new citations against the
property so we can ask the courts for a new abatement order- rather than wait for the
Supreme Court's decision. To this end, Terry Goerdt, of the Housing and Inspection
office, issued a new citation for a nuisance violation for 828 St. Anne's Drive. The City
~,ttorney's Office will prosecute that citation, and ask the Court to let the City abate the
p Jisance by removing all junk and salvage material from the property. At the same time,
they will continue to defend the Court's contempt decision in the appeal by Wilfred ¥eggy
to the Iowa Supreme Court.
On behalf of all members of the City Council, I want to thank you for your continued
assistance and to apologize for the length of time it takes to reach a permanent abatement
of the nuisance. I do not foresee the Council having an agenda item concerning the Yeggy
property at a regular meeting of the Council, because there is pending litigation in both the
District Court and the Supreme Court. However, you and other affected neighbors are
always welcome to address the Council during the portion of any meeting set aside for
communication from citizens. In addition, you are welcome to contact any of us by
telephone or mail to keep us apprised of your concerns, or to request an update on the
progress of the clean-up efforts.

Re: FY96 Paratransit Service for the City of Iowa City
Dear Charlie:
The staff committee has concluded its review of proposals for FY96 Iowa City/Coralville
paratransit service. It is their recommendation to me to recommend to the City Council a
contract with Johnson County for the operation of paratransit service in FY96 according to
the specifications listed in Section III of our Request for Proposals. In our discussions with
the City of Coralville I believe we have agreed in principle regarding this matter, and you will
receive a favorable recommendation from the City of Coralville.
It is most gratifying that Johnson County agreed to submit a proposal which satisfies our
concerns for an improved system of management accountability, by shifting the dispatching
function for Iowa City and Coralville paratransit service to the City of Iowa City. We believe
effective coordination can be worked out between the dispatching of the urbanized area
service and the rural service. I can assure of our commitment to that goal.
We would also like to respond to your offer to continue Johnson County dispatching of the
service by restating what has been our position throughout our earliest discussions, that
beinq: If Johnson County is willing to implement a management information system which
would allow the Cities of Iowa City and Coralville to have better information with which to
track the provision of paratransit service, we are agreeable to continued dispatching of
paratransit service by Johnson County and I would recommend accordingly. We are agreeable
to continuing the flat fee arrangement for a total of $468,000. We will require all fare box
revenue be receipted to Iowa City and Coralville on a monthly basis.
Attached is a copy of the management information form we would require. We would expect
weekly summaries of this information. Iowa City Transit staff is prepared to assist Johnson
County in implementing this system if that is how you choose to proceed. Without this
management information system, I would continue to recommend that paratransit dispatching
by City of Iowa City employees as stated in your response to the proposal,
There are several minor items regarding the County's continued use of the Iowa City Transit
building which we will need to negotiate since they were not part of your proposal, These
include use of the City's fueling facility, vehicle wash facilities, drivers' room, and vehicle
storage area. This area of cost/responsibility has been raised by various interests and

therefore should be incorporated into the agreement. I believe we will not have great difficulty
in working out these details.
While we have not concluded the matter of overpayment/overcharge, whatever we choose
to call it, it does appear that sufficient monies are available to implement new accounting and
management systems.
Any additional contracts entered into by Johnson County are the sole responsibility of
Johnson County and not part of this agreement, Any such contracts shall not diminish the
level of service available to Iowa City and Coralville riders,
Once again, I am pleased that our Request for Proposals process has resulted in Johnsor
County's being selected the most favorable responsive proposer. If we are unable to reacl;
agreement regarding the items stated in this letter, we have one other proposal to consider,
as well as possible operation of paratransit by the City. I look forward to a response to this
letter at your earliest convenience. I would like to take my recommendations to the City
C_~,mcil at their regular meeting of June 27. Thank you.
Sincerely yours,

May 25, 1995
Mr. Stephen J. Arkins
City Manager
410 East ~ashington Street
Iowa City, Iowa 52240-]826
Dear Mr. Atkins:
This will acknowledge receipt of your check in the amount of $200 for a
cost estimate for a special census of Iowa City.
The estimated cost of a special census of Iowa City based on your population
estimate of 62,900 is $198,831. Of this amount $92,500 is paid to the Census
Bureau in advance and $106,331 is held by the City to pay local persons who
work on the census.
We are enclosing two copies of the formal agreement for the census. Please
read the contract carefully giving particular attention to Sections B and D
so you are aware of the responsibilities of all parties involved. The cost
of the special census could increase significantly if sufficient applicants
are not provided due to the additional time the Census Bureau supervisor
would have to spend in recruiting applicants. Also, a cost estimate that has
not been accepted within 90 days by local officials is subject to revision to
take into account any changes in wage rates or other costs that may have
occurred. Although we cannot guarantee a specific date for receipt of the
final data, we will make every effort to deliver the data as soon as possible
after completion of the enumeration. If you require the data by a specific
date, please inform us of that date when you return the signed contracts.
Should we be unable to meet that deadline, we will refund your deposit.
It will be necessary to have an authorized local official sign and complete
both copies in the section designated "FOR THE CONTI~ACTOR." If you wish to
have us begin work on the census, please forward a check for $ 92,500 payable
to Comerce-Census and return both signed copies of the agreement.
Enumerators will use maps showing the current boundaries of Iowa City in the
special census. Approximately 4 weeks after receipt of your initial payment,
you will receive copies of the census maps and specific instructions for
updating these maps. We will send maps that show the corporate limits of
Iowa City based on the latest information we have available. We require
ordinances and plats for annexations not shown and any other changes to the
corporate limits must be documented. Questions regarding the corporate
limits must be resolved before the special census begins.
Hr. Stephen j. Arkins
2
Our preparatory work will require approximately 120 days before the census
date and after receipt by us of the satisfactorily updated maps. Final
results will be available approximately 16 weeks after completion of the
census. Please note that the Census Bureau will provide the data to any
Federal, state, or local official, or other individual upon receipt of a
written request. If you have questions or require further information,
please call the Office of Special Censuses on 301-457-142g
or fax 301-4B7-1477. ·
