Dear City Council Members,
I would like to update you on the progress The Englert Civic Theatre group has
made over the past year.
On the national level, the Englert Theatre has been designated as an Official
Project of "Save America's Treasures," a program of the National Trust for
Historic Preservation. The building has also been placed on the National
Register of Historic Places.
We have raised $950,000 in cash and pledges, We have received $478,300 in
grant money. We have over $230,000 of In-kind support.
The rehabilitation project wilt be accomplished in three Stages that have been
sub divided into eight phases. Currently, the ECT is in Phase III. We have hired
architect John Shaw, the engineering firms of Shive-Hattery and Shoemaker &
Haaland, and theater designer Rick Loula. We contracted with West Branch
Roofing Company to remove obsolete structures and replace the entire roof.
Stage I will take 3-4 months more to complete. Stage II, given proper funding
could be accomplished within a year. Stage III is ongoing until we formally open
the building.
Staqe h Occupancy Code
Phase I: Removal of the following: two movie screens; gypsum board
covering the proscenium arch, plywood covering the orchestra pit,
and the wall dividing the auditorium into two separate sections.
Phase Ih Hiring of an architect. engineers, and a theater design expert to
develop construction plans.
Phase II1: Installation of a new roof and insulation. Repair and upgrades of
HVAC, plumbing and electrical systems. Removal of the 1926
wooden catwalks and gravity-operated scenery drops above the
stage. Installation of the steel grid theater rigging, sprinkler, and
fire alarm systems.
Englert Civic Theatre, Inc. ~ 221 E. Washington Street ~ Iowa City, Iowa 52240
(319) 688-2653 ~ www. engiert. org
Staqe I1: Facility Upgrade and Historic Restoration:
Phase IV: Installation of an elevator to the second and third floors. Adaptation
of the second floor as an art gallery and meeting space, and the
third floor as office and classroom spaces.
Phase V: Installation state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems. Rebuilding
of the stage floor. Refurbishing of below-stage dressing rooms.
Phase Vh Removal of the lobby concession stand, wall coverings, carpeting
and acoustic ceiling. Rebuilding of the box office and defining
vestibule/lobby wall to the speciflcetions in the recently
rediscovered1926bluepdnts. Repair/restorationoflobbysurrace
treatments including; slate floors, marble stairs, faux stonework wall
treatments, pointed stairway loggia arches, domed plasterwork
ceiling, and paint finishes.
Phase VII: Repair and restoration of the historic auditorium surfaces. Repair
and reupholstering of auditorium seats.
Phase VIII: Repair of the landmark 1940s marquee and Washington Street
facade, including restoration of exterior display cases.
Sta.qe II1: Operation of Facility:
Pre-opening costs $100,000 to cover utilities, insurance, staff,
dudng 12 month pre-opening period.
We are collaborating with many local entities to push this project further and
establish a community spirit and bond with the Englert Civic Theatre. These
entities and projects include:
· Iowa City Community Theatre: ICCT will make the Englert Theatre its home
base. ICCT, a longtime local company, is committed to a schedule of 4
productions each year, with six performances per show. Dates for these
performances are already projected through 2003.
· Arts Iowa City: The Englert Group has signed a consortium agreement with
Arts Iowa City to plan, develop, and operate a multi-functional art gallery on
the second floor, in the area that had initially been the Englert family
apartment. The gallery will have display walls and pedestals that can be
quickly and easily moved. Thus the gallery can simultaneously be used as a
small performance area, seminar room, or reception hall. Arts Iowa City has
a 27-year history of working collaboratively with both businesses and other
non-profit organizations.
· Cultural Incubator: The Englert Group is currently working with the John
Pappajohn Entrepreneurial Center's Business Consulting Class at the
University of Iowa Business School to create a strategic plan and business
plan for the non-theater portion of the third floor. The Englert Center will be a
shared business office complex for cultural organizations. Currently the
organizations who have expressed interest in collaborating to form this
cultural incubator are: Arts Iowa City, Iowa City Community Theater, Iowa
Arts Festival, Iowa City Jazz Festival, The Downtown Association, The
Friends of Historic Preservation and the University of Iowa Center for
Effective Non-Profit Management. In addition to in-residence organizations,
we anticipate offering modular support services to non-resident small non-
profit cultural groups as well as independent performing or visual artists,
writers, and historians. This idea fits extremely well into Iowa Governor Tom
Vilsack's "Imagine Iowa 2010" initiative.
· Local Business: We are also in discussions with local business proprietors
concerning Englert's two storefronts facing Washington Street, and the
Englert apartment kitchen on the second floor. It is our intent to collaborate
with existing businesses to operate these areas with the profits benefiting the
organizations participating in the Engiert Center.
· Englert Night Out: One of our major fundraisers is "Englert Night Out," a
non-alcoholic community celebration for New Year's Eve. This is a leveraged
funding event for the community, and by the community. Scores of
individuals, more than 20 performance groups, three dozen artists, five
service organizations, 38 businesses, and the City of Iowa City will
collaborate to make this event a success.
· Englert Annual Road Race: The first Englert Road Race in the summer of
2000 drew 250 runners and crowds of enthusiastic supporters. The good will
and publicity generated encouraged the Englert event planners to organize
the Englert road race as an annual event. Plans are underway for having
guest runners, a celebrity race starter, and pre-race dinner to encourage
maximum participation in the third annual road race. Estimated participation:
1000.
· Compact Disc: A group of local musicians have collaborated to create and
release a CD for the benefit of the Englert. This CD by MUSE ( Musicians
United to Save the Englert ) has original songs by Greg Brown, Big Wooden
Radio and other local groups. Plans are underway to make this a yearly
collaboration between local musicians, Trailer Records and The Englert Civic
Theatre.
Tourism Value: Iowa City has made a consistent and concerted effort to
strengthen and promote the arts. Our community has not yet reached critical
mass, but we are rapidly approaching it. With the completion of the Englert Civic
Theatre complex that cdtical mass will be reached. We anticipate attracting a
large number of tourists from metropolitan communities that are within 300 miles.
This includes Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, and
Omaha. More and more people are beginning to take short trips away from
home. That coupled with the new trend of visiting the small arts towns of America
places us in an exceptional position. We are just far enough for the tourist to feel
they have had an adventure. Based upon data collected by the Advocacy
Committee of the National Arts Educetom Association: If our community
continues for the next three years the concerted effort of the past, the arts in
Iowa City should bring in millions in tourist dollars, and some of those dollars will
be left on the highways and byways from there to here.
Relocation Value: A synergy is developing among the arts in Iowa City. That
vitality is beginning to be noticed nationally. In the past three years, several
publications have listed Iowa City as a desirable place to live. The most recent is
the March 19, 2001, issue of The Wall Street Journal, which devoted an entire
page to relocating retirees from New York and Boston. Cultural benefits ranked
high in their decisions to make Iowa City their home. Those same cultural
benefits, when fully developed, will attract business and in turn provide
employment opportunities.
As you can see, the Englert Civic Theatre group has been working hard towards
not only restoring one of Iowa City's great landmarks, but they are also taking the
steps to insure irs future viability as a cultural center of Iowa City. It will be
something that we all can be proud of!

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: City Manager
DATE: October 31, 2000
RE: Englert Theatre Building
The City of Iowa City purchased the Englert Theater Building from Pohl Family Properties on
February 8. 2000 for approximately $753, 400. The City paid $700,000 and the remainder
was paid by the Iowa City Jazz Festival, representing the Englert Coalition, from funds
previously raised by the Coalition.
The purchase agreement provides that if the City has not entered into a purchase agreement
with a not-for-profit entity (intended to be Jazz Festival or the Englert Coalition) within g0
months to sell the building, Pohl Family Properties will purchase the building back for the
original purchase price. The 9-month pedod ends November 8, 2000.
The City, in turn, agreed to sell the building to Iowa City Jazz Festival (representing the
Englert Coalition) for $500,000 if purchased within the 9-month period specified. This was to
represent a $200.000 contribution by the City to this initiative.
We have projected the costs to the City associated with ownership of the Englert Building for
the 9-month pedod as follows:
Lost Interest Income over 9 Months on $700,000 $34,125
Property taxes (pro-rated for the 9-month pedod) $16,888
Management of rental units, building maintenance, utility costs, etc. $13,564
Revenue from rental units (February 8 - July 31 ) ($ 7,450)
Additional miscellaneous costs (recording fees, insurance, etc.) $ 1,321
Total projected expenses (February 8 ~ November 8) $58,448
The recent proposal from the Englert Coalition is for the City to sell the building to the
Coalition on a four-year, no-interest contract with $100,000 down and payments of $100,000
on November 8 of each of the succeeding four years. The Finance Director estimates the
City would lose approximately $65,000 in interest revenue over that four-year contract pedod
on the outstanding balance.
Including the proposal for a contract sale, the total cost to the City could be as follows:
Lost interest plus actual costs (February 8 - November 8, 2000) $ 58,448
Lost interest on no-interest, four-year contract sale $ 65,000
Initial City commitment to write down the cost to the Coalition by $200.000
$200,000
Total $323,448

Iowa City. It includes approximately one-half block between Burlington and Court streets,
along Dubuque Street. Directly across from the center are apartments, offices and senior

and subject to Seabury and the Developer being and remaining in compliance with the
terms of this Agreement and to the terms of this Article VIII, to assume an obligation to
make up to ten (10) consecutive annual payments to Seabury commencing June 1, 2005
and ending on June 1, 2014, pursuant to Section 403.9 of the Urban Re~ewal Act. Each

3ra Year - 80% 8t~ Year - 30%
4th Year - 70% 9th Year - 20%

of the Tax Increments collected by the City with respect to the Minimum Improvements
on Development Property under the terms of the Ordinance (without regard to any
averaging that may otherwise be utilized under Section 403.19 and excluding any interest
that may accrue thereon prior to payment to Seabury) during the preceding twelve-month
period in respect of the Development Property and the Minimum Improvements, but
subject to limitation and adjustment as provided in this Axticle (such payments being
referred to collectively as the "Economic Development Grants").
(b) The obligation of the City to make an Economic Development Grant to
Seabury in any year shall be subject to and condifioned upon the timely filing by Seabury
of the annual statement, proof and certification required under Section 6.7 hereof and the
City Council's approval thereof. If Seabury's annual statement, proof and certification is
timely filed and contains the information required under Section 6.7 and the City Council
approves of the same, the City shall certify to the County prior to December 1 of that year
its request for the available Tax Increments resulting from the assessments imposed by
the County as of January 1 of that year, to be collected by the City as taxes are paid
during the following fiscal year and which shall thereafter be disbursed to Seabury on

would be paid to Seabury on June 1, 2005.)
(c) In the event that the annual statement, proof or certificate required to be
delivered by Seabury under Section 6.7 is not delivered to the City by November 1 of any
year, Seabury recognizes and agrees that the City may have insufficient time to review
and approve the same and certify its request for Tax Increments to the County and that, as
a result, no Economic Development Grant may be made to Seabury in respect thereof.
The City covenants to act in good faith to appropriately review and consider any late
certification on the part of Seabray, but the City shall not be obligated t.o make any
certification to the County for the available Tax Increments or make any corresponding
payment of the Economic Development Grant to Seabury if, in the reasonable judgment
of the City, it is not able to give appropriate consideration (which may include, but not be
limited to, specific discussion before the City Council at a regular City Council meeting
with respect thereto) to Seabury's certification due to its late filing. In the event
-14-
Developer fails to timely file an annual statement, proof or certificate due to an
Unavoidable Delay and, as a result, an Economic Development Grant cannot be made,
Seabray may give written notice to the City and, if the City finds that Seabury's failure is
due to an Unavoidable Delay, the missed Economic Development Grant shall be made in
the year succeeding the last scheduled Economic Development Grant under Section 8.1,
subject to Developer's filing under Section 6.7 and all other provisions of this Article
VIII with respect to such grant, it being the intention of the parties to allow ten (10)
annual Economic Development Grants if Seabury is in compliance with this Agreement.
(d) The aggregate amotmt of the Economic Development Grants that may be
paid to Seabray under this Agreement shall be equal to the sum of the total amount of the
applicable percentage of all Tax Increments collected with respect to the assessments
imposed on the Development Property and Minimum Improvements as of January 1,
2003, and on January 1st of each of the following nine (9) years, but in no case shall
exceed Seven Hundred Eighty-One Thousand Two Hundred Dollars ($781,200).

termination, in accordance with the terms of this Article VIII and Article X. Thereafter,
the taxes levied on the Development Property and Minimum Improvements shall be
divided and applied in accordance with the Urban Renewal Act and the Ordinance. It is
recognized by all parties that the total aggregate amount set forth above is a maximum
amount only and that the actual payment amounts will be determined after the Minimum
Improvements are completed and the valuations of said Improvements have been
determined by the County Assessor.
(e) In the event that any certificate filed by Seabury under Section 6.7 discloses
the existence or prior occurrence of an Event of Default that was not cured or cannot
reasonably be cured under the provisions of Section 10.2 (or an event that, with the
passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would become an Event of Default that
cannot reasonably be cured under the provisions of Section 10.2), the City shall have no
obligation thereafter to make any further payments to Seabury in respect of the Economic
Development Grants and may proceed to take one or more of the actions described in
Section 10.2 hereof.
Section 8.2. Source of Grant Funds Limited. (a) The Economic lbevelopment
Grants shall be payable from and secured solely and only by amounts deposited and held
in Seabury & Smith, Inc. TIF Account of the City. The City hereby covenants and agrees
to maintain the Ordinance in force during the term hereof and to apply the incremental
taxes collected in respect of the Development Property and Minimum Improvements and
-15-
allocated to Seabury & Smith, Inc. TIF Account to pay the Economic Development
Grants, as and to the extent set forth in Section 8.1 hereof. The Economic Development
Grants shall not be payable in any manner by other tax increment revenues or by general
taxation or from any other City funds.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1 hereof, the City shall have no
obligation to make an Economic Development Grant to Seabury if at any time during the
term hereof the City receives an opinion from a court of competent jurisdiction to the
effect that the use of Tax Increments resulting from the Minimum Improvements to fund
an Economic Development Grant to Seabury, as contemplated under said Section 8.1, is
not authorized or otherwise an appropriate project activity permitted to be undertaken by
the City under the Urban Renewal Act or other applicable provisions of the Code or
Constitution of the State of Iowa, as then constituted. Upon receipt of such an opinion,
the City shall promptly forward a copy of the same to Seabray and the Developer. If the
circumstances or legal constraints giving rise to the opinion continue for a period during
which two (2) Economic Development Grants would otherwise have been paid to
Seabury under the terms of Section 8.1, the City may terminate this Agreement, without
penalty or other liability to Seabury and the Developer, by written notice to Seabury and
the Developer.
(c) The City makes no representation with respect to the amounts that may finally
be paid to Seabury as the Economic Development Grants, and under no circumstances
shall the City in any manner be liable to Seabray or the Developer so long as the City
timely applies the Tax Increments actually collected and held in Seabury & Smith, Inc.
TIF Account (regardless of the amounts thereof) to the payment of the Economic
Development Grants to Seabray, as and to the extent described in this Article.
Section 8.3. Use of Other Tax Increments. Subject to this Article VIII, the City
shall be free to use any and all Tax Increments collected in respect of any other properties
within the Project Area, or any available Tax Increments resulting from the suspension or
termination of the Economic Development Grants under Section 8.1 hereof, for any
purpose for which the Tax Increments may lawfully be used pursuant to the provisions of
the Urban Renewal Act, and the City shall have no obligations to Seab.ury with respect to
the use thereof.

MEMORANDUM
Date: December 3, 2001
To: City Council
From: Mitchel T. Behr, Assistant City Attorney ~
Re: Disposition of Kirkwood Avenue right-of-way property to Church of Christ
As you know from reviewing the agenda, there is an item involving the disposition of
public property located within the Kirkwood Avenue right-of-way to the adjacent property
owner Church of Christ. Church of Christ has offered the sum of $1.00 for a 2,450 square
foot portion of the right-of-way property. Attached to this memo are copies of their written
offer and a survey plat depicting the parcel they seek to acquire.
I have expressed reservations to Church of Christ about their $1.00 offer, in light of the
assessed and appraised values of neighboring properties and the principles that must
guide the Council in making a decision to convey public land. A copy of my letter written
in response to their $1.00 offer is attached to this memo.
City staff is recommending that any conveyance of the parcel be subject to a 140-foot by
5-foot blanket utility easement in favor of the City and the condition that small shrubs be
planted along the south property line to screen the parcel and clearly demarcate it from
the adjacent trail corridor.

Dear Mr. Behr:
Our congregational meeting on November 11 has instructed me to offer the following
purchase offer for the portion of Kirkwood Avenue south of our church parking lot.
Since the elevation of the lot has changed with the installation of the bicycle/
pedestrian path there is no longer room to park the number of cars previously
anticipated. We do anticipate some uses and therefore offer the sum of $1.00 and the
other considerations previously discussed.
Please give me a call at 338-0937 if you need further data, We appreciate your
willingness to prepare the necessary paperwork.
Very truly yours,
~J.L, Presson for the congregation

Iowa City, IA 52240
Re: Kirkwood Avenue right-of-way
Dear Mr. Presson:
I received your letter dated November 12, 2001, in which you offered the sum of $1.00 for the
2,450 square foot potion of the Kirkwood Avenue right-of-way you wish to purchase from the
City.
As I believe you are aware, the decision of whether to convey the prope~y, and the purchase
price for which it would be conveyed, is up to the City Council. I write this letter to inform you of
the factors the City Council considers in making their decision.
It is a well-settled principle of law that the City Council holds prope~y "in trust" for the use and
benefit of the public, and thus, such prope~y can be disposed of only in accordance with the
public interest. As "trustee" of public prope~y, the City Council must dispose of such prope~y in
good faith, upon adequate consideration, and upon reasonable and la~ul terms. Generally, the
principle requiring "adequate consideration~ has been recognized to mean that a municipality
must obtain fair market value for the prope~y to be conveyed, assuming the transaction does
not entail other public benefit.
Determining "adequate consideration" or fair market value for parcels of public prope~y,
pa~icularly former right-of-way prope~y, can be difficult. The City Council considers the
specific facts of each situation when determining the appropriate payment for conveyance of
such prope~y. In past conveyances, the amount of consideration has been based on the
assessed value of the neighboring prope~y. When available, the appraised value of neighboring
prope~y can also sere as a basis for the determination of the appropriate amount of
consideration. The existence of easements which limit the buildable area or use of the prope~y
may suppo~ a lower valuation.
The parcel you seek to acquire from the City lies adjacent to the south of lots 32, 33 and a
potion of lot 34 in Hill Crest Price's Addition to Iowa Ci~, which are owned by Church of Christ.
Although exempt from real estate taxes, those lots are currently assessed at approximately
$2.41 per square foot. Lot 31 directly to the west has an assessed value of approximately $4
per square foot. When the City purchased from Church of Christ a potion of lot 34 and all of lot
35 adjacent directly to the east, you were paid an appraised value of approximately $3.15 per
square foot. Applying these figures to the parcel you seek to acquire from the City would
suppo~ a value between $5,904 and $9,800. These figures of course do not take into account
any '"public benefit" or other unique circumstances you may believe exist in relationship to your
proposal to acquire the parcel from the City. These figures may, however, be taken into
consideration by the City Council when deciding upon your proposal.
In your letter you indicated that due to the changed elevation of the parcel, there is no Ionget
room to park the number of cars previously anticipated. You also referred to "other
considerations" in support of your offer of $1.00. In support of your proposal, because the
amount offered is far below the figures indicated by the assessed and appraised values of
adjacent properties, you may wish to expand upon and explain further your bases for offering
the sum of $1.00. It is also worth noting the parcel you seek to acquire appears to be subject to
a 5' wide electrical easement.
In John Yapp's November 7, 2001 letter to you, he indicated this office would prepare the

CITY OF I0 WA CITY
SECTION I - GENERAL POLICY STATEMENT
It is the policy of the City of Iowa City to require equal employment opportunity in all City contract work.
This policy prohibits discrimination by the City's contractors, consultants and vendors and requires them
to ensure that applicants seeking employment with them and their employees are treated equally
without regard to race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation,
disability, marital status, and age.
It is the City's intention to assist employers, who are City contractors, vendors or consultants, in
designing and implementing equal employment opportunity so that all citizens will be afforded equal
accessibility and opportunity to gain and maintain employment.
PROVISIONS:
1. All contractors, vendors, and consultants requesting to do business with the City must submit an
Equal Opportunity Policy Statement before the execution of the contract.
2. All City contractors, vendors, and consultants with contracts of $25,000 or more (or less if
required by another governmental agency) must abide by the requirements of the City's Contract
Compliance Program. Emergency contracts may be exempt from this provision at the discretion
of the City. Regardless ofthe value of the contract, all contractors, vendors, and consultants are
subject to the City's Human Rights Ordinance, which is codified at Article 2 of the City Code.
3. Contracting departments are responsible for assuring that City contractors, vendors, and
consultants are made aware of the City's Contract Compliance Program reporting
responsibilities and receive the appropriate reporting forms. A notification of requirements will be
included in any request for proposal and notice of bids.
4. Prior to execution of the contract, the completed and signed Assurance of Compliance (located
on pages CC-2 and CC-3) or other required material must be received and approved by the City.
5. Contracting departments are responsible for answering questions about contractor, consultant
and vendor compliance during the course of the contract with the City.
6. All contractors, vendors, and consultants must refrain from the use of any signs or designations
which are sexist in nature, such as those which state "Men Working" or "Flagman Ahead," and
instead use gender neutral signs.
7. All contractors, vendors, and consultants must assure that their subcontractors abide by the
City's Human Rights Ordinance. The City's protected classes are listed at Iowa City City Code
section 2-3-1.
SECTION II - ASSURANCE OF COMPLIANCE
The following sets forth the minimum requirements of a satisfactory Equal Employment Opportunity
Program which will be reviewed for acceptability. PLEASE RETURN PAGES 2 THROUGH 3 OF THIS
SECTION TO THE CONTRACTING DEPARTMENT PRIOR TO THE EXECUTION OF THE
CONTRACT.
With respect to the performance of this contract, the contractor, consultant or vendor agrees as follows:
(For the purposes of these minimum requirements, "contractor~' shall include consultants and vendors.)
a. The contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment and will
take affirmative efforts to ensure applicants and employees are treated during employment
without regard to their race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender
identity, disability, marital status, and age. Such efforts shall include, but not be limited to the
following: employment, promotion, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising;
layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training,
including apprenticeship.
b. The contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of
the contractor, state that it is an equal opportunity employer.
Note: Contracts that are federally funded are subject to Executive Order No. 11246, as amended, and
the regulations (see generally 29 U.S.C. § 1608 et seq.) and relevant orders of the U.S. Secretary
of Labor. The Secretary of Labor, and not the City, enforces said regulations and orders.
3. Provide a copy of your written Equal Employment Opportunity policy statement.
Where is this statement posted?
4. What is the name, telephone number and address of your business' Equal Employment
Opportunity Officer?
(Please print)

(including unions) that you are an Equal Employment Opportunity employer?
The above responses to questions 1 through 6, are true and correctly reflect our Equal Employment
Opportunity policies.
Business Name Phone Number
Signature Title
Print Name Date
CC-3
SECTION III - SUGGESTED STEPS TO ASSURE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES
1. COMPANY POLICY
Determine your company's policy regarding equal employment opportunities. Document the policy and
post it in a conspicuous place so that it is known to all your employees. Furthermore, disseminate the
policy to all potential sources of employees and to your subcontractors asking their cooperation. The
policy statement should recognize and accept your responsibility to provide equal employment
opportunity in all your employment practices. In regard to dissemination of this policy, this can be done,
for example, through the use of letters to all recruitment sources and subcontractors, personal contacts,
employee meetings, web page postings, employee handbooks, and advertising.
2. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY OFFICER
Designate an equal employment opportunity officer or, at minimum, assign someone the responsibility
of administering and promoting your company's Equal Employment Opportunity program. This person
should have a position in your organization which emphasizes the importance of the program.
3. INSTRUCTSTAFF
Your staff should be aware of and be required to abide by your Equal Employment Opportunity
program. All employees authorized to hire, supervise, promote, or discharge employees or are involved
in such actions should be trained and required to comply with your policy and the current equal
employment opportunity laws.
4. RECRUITMENT
(a) Let potential employees know you are an equal opportunity employer. This can be done by
identifying yourself on all recruitment advertising as "an equal opportunity employer".
(b) Use recruitment sources that are likely to yield diverse applicant pools. Word-of-mouth
recruitment will only perpetuate the current composition of your workforce. Send recruitment
sources a letter annually which reaffirms your commitment to equal employment opportunity and
requests their assistance in helping you reach diverse applicant pools.
(c) Analyze and review your company's recruitment procedures to identify and eliminate
discriminatory barriers.
(d) Select and train persons involved in the employment process to use objective standards and to
support equal employment opportunity goals.
(e) Review periodically job descriptions to make sure they accurately reflect major job functions.
Review education and experience requirements to make sure they accurately reflect the
requirements for successful job performance.
(f) Review the job application to insure that only job related questions are asked. Ask yourself "Is
this information necessary to judge an applicant's ability to perform the job applied for?" Only
use job-related tests which do not adversely affect any particular group of people.
(g) Monitor interviews carefully. Prepare interview questions in advance to assure that they are only
job related. Train your interviewers on discrimination laws. Biased and subjective judgments in
personal interviews can be a major source of discrimination.
(h) Improve hiring and selection procedures and use non-biased promotion, transfer and training
policies to increase and/or improve the diversity of your workforce representation. Companies
must make sure procedures for selecting candidates for promotion, transfer and training are
based upon a fair assessment of an employee's ability and work record. Furthermore, all
companies should post and otherwise publicize all job promotional opportunities and
encourage all qualified employees to bid on them.

MEMORANDUM
Date: December 5, 2001
To: City Council
From: Dale Helling, Assistant City Manager
Re: Contract Compliance Policy Revision
Resolution No. 83-417, creating the City's Contract Compliance Program, was adopted on
December 20, 1983. Since then, the courts have issued numerous decisions in the area of
discrimination law and businesses have become more aware of their obligations regarding
equal employment opportunities and non-discrimination in the delivery of their goods and
services. Staff has recently conducted a review of our Contract Compliance Program, and
is recommending a number of revisions to better reflect actual EEO practices and law,
and make the program consistent with the Iowa City Human Rights ordinance, easier for
our contractors and vendors to understand, less duplicative of other contract provisions,
consistent with actual City practice and simpler to administer.
The recommended revisions are summarized as follows:
Section I - General Policy Statement - This section has been updated to include all
protected groups specified in the Iowa City ordinance and to emphasize equal opportunity
and non-discrimination in employment practices. The statement has been amended to
apply to City vendors and consultants as well as contractors. The statement also clarifies
that the EEO Statement must be submitted prior to execution of the contract in
accordance with our current practice. Paragraph 7 regarding contract breach and
disqualification from future bidding has been eliminated because the contract will not be
executed if the requirements of the program are not satisfied. Our discrimination
provisions are part of all City contracts and disqualification from future bidding raises a
number of issues in light of Iowa's competitive bidding statute.
Section II - Assurance of Compliance - References to specific federal requirements for
fedorally funded projects are removed as these are already part of our bid specifications
and contract documents. This section does still contain a general reference to compliance
with all federal laws for federally funded projects but notes that the Secretary of Labor, not
the City, enforces these requirements. The questions have been modified to emphasize
that the contracto~consultant/vendor must have EEO policies in place. Further, the
requirement for a contractor or vendor to submit current employee statistics has been
eliminated because we cannot impose quotas or require specific percentages of
employees representative of any protected group(s).
Section Ill - Suggested Steps to Assure Equal Employment Opportunities - This section
of the program has been strengthened to reflect current recommended equal employment
opportunity and non-discrimination practices and to better advise contractors, consultants,
and vendors on ways to assure that they remain in compliance with such practices.
Section IV - Definitions - This section has been removed. Many of the definitions am
outdated and unnecessary. Some are not utilized at all in the program document. Equal
employment opportunity and non-discrimination terms are more commonly used and
understood today, and there is no compelling reason for including definitions. Moreover,
many of the definitions relate to the statutes and caselaw prohibiting discrimination.
These laws are enforced by federal, state and local equal employment opportunity and
