U.S. HIGHWAY I, HARLOCKE STREET, AND BENTON STREET IN IOWA

the Southwest District Plan, a district specific component of the
Comprehensive Plan. The guidelines and principles set forth in the
Comprehensive Ran are used to identify appropriate land-uses, guide
development and establish future development patterns within the City. The
area circumscribed by Miller Avenue, U.S. Highway I, Harlocke Street and
Benton Street is located within the Southwest District and contains
undeveloped properties within established neighborhoods, environmentally
sensitive areas, high density zoning abutting low density zoning, topographic
and access limitations and has been the subiect of recurring and unresolved
debates concerning appropriate development without the benefit of district
planning. This ordinance places a temporary moratorium on development
within the above area (excluding property subject to moratorium pursuant to
City Code within the last 12 months and properly that is the subject of pending
litigation) until September I, 2002 to allow for the completion of the Southwest
District Plan in an effort to establish updated Comprehensive Plan guidefines
and make appropriate land-use decisions for this area of the City.

AREA AS APPROPRIATE FOR AN URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT; AND
ADOPTING AN AMENDMENT TO THE CITY-UNIVERSITY PROJECT I
(PROJECT NO. IA R-14) URBAN RENEWAL PLAN AND PLAN AREA

Renewal Plan would expand the urban renewal area, allow for the use of tax
increment financing, and amend other portions of the Plan to make the Plan

Zoning Commission found, by a vote of 6-0, that the Amended City-

ITEM NO. 13. CONSIDER AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 9, ENTITLED "MOTOR

SECTION 6, ENTITLED "PARKING VIOLATIONS," SUBSECTION A,
ENTITLED "IMPOUNDMENT OF BICYCLES" TO ALLOW THE CITY TO
IMPOUND ABANDONED BICYCLES. (FIRST CONSIDERATION)
Bikes are occasionally abandoned by their owners leaving them attached to
bike racks. Because they are otherwise legally parked, no current ordinance
allows the City to impound these bicycles. The proposed ordinance allows
the City to impound a bicycle if it is legally parked, but abandoned, for more
than seven consecutive days. Before impounding, the City will tag the
bicycle for seven days and follow all other current provisions when
impounding a bicycle.

OF THE VOTING PRECINCTS IN IOWA CITY. (FIRST CONSIDERATION)
Comment: New precinct boundaries are required after each Federal Census
is completed. A public hearing was held on the Iowa City proposed
boundaries on July 31 and an ordinance adopted August 21. After
submission and review by the Secretary of State, minor discrepancies in the
legal descriptions were noted which requires passage of a revised ordinance.
These discrepancies do not affect the map or any individuals.
ITEM NO. 15. CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AMENDING IOWA CITY'S 2001-2006
O[- ~> ~ '~ CONSOLIDATED PLAN (A.K.A. CITY STEPS).

September 18 meeting, the Housing and Community Development
Commission voted (6-1) to deny the proposed amendment. A staff
memorandum is included in the Council packet.

ITEM NO. 16. CONSIDER A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING FEES FOR SERVICES AND
ACTIVITIES OF THE IOWA CITY HOUSING AND INSPECTION SERVICES
DEPARTMENT.
Comment: The City Council revenue goal for the Rental Housing Inspection
Division has historically been approximately 70% of division's total budget.
Under the current fee structure, FY 2002 Rental Housing Inspection
revenues will total 53.75% of its total budget. The Rental Housing Inspection
Division, for the second time in its twenty-year history, seeks to increase its
fees for services. The Apartment Owners Association Board of Directors has
reviewed the fee schedule and their proposals have been incorporated into
this resolution. The increase in fees on a typical twelve unit, two bedroom
apartment complex would be $.38 cents per month, per apartment. For a
single family three bedroom dwelling the increase in fees would be $.66
cents per month. The fee schedule would become effective August 1, 2002.
