MEMORANDUM -
Date: April 10, 2013
To: Tom Markus, City Manager
From: Michael Moran, Director of Parks and Recreation
Re: Secondary Access Road, City Park
As you are aware, I have been meeting with the Normandy Drive residents in regards to several
improvement projects over the course of the past two years. We currently have the City Park Secondary
Access Road project in the queue to be done in the FY14 CIP budget. After numerous discussions with
the neighborhood, discussing their feelings on the project and the impact that might occur with other
projects we have going on in that area, I would like to step back from this project and spend some time
in retrospect to see what else might be considered. I would like to postpone this project for at least one
construction season, maybe more, and revisit it after we have completed the other projects in the area
and the Dubuque St. project schedule is known for Lower City Park Access.
Right now I don't see an urgent need for this to be done as we can still accommodate the concerns we
had in the area in terms of safety, access and traffic flow. If you have any additional questions I would be
happy to answer them or provide you with additional information.

Tom,
I just received word the CFAI will have a site assessment team in Iowa City, April 28th through May 2nd for the
department's re- accreditation site visit. There are a couple dates and times to note. On Monday, April 291h at 8:00 AM,
the team will provide an overview of their site visit; and on Wednesday, May I't at approximately 4:00 PM, the team will
provide an overview of their findings and their recommendation to the CFAI. These meeting will take place in the Fire
Department's conference room at Fire Station 1. As well, during their site visit they will be scheduling a number of
interviews with the appropriate City staff.
Please notify the Mayor, City Council, and other staff members, as they are encouraged and welcome to attend. Let me
know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Andy

Our View: 'Shovel ready,' but no one's digging anytime soon
Written by Press - Citizen Editorial Board Our View
Apr. 10 press- citizen.com
Two years ago, we were among those cheering the good news that a Maryland -based company —
North American Ductile Iron Company ( Nadicom) — had big plans to locate its first North American
foundry in Iowa City.
With that proposed foundry promising to bring 175 jobs to the area by the second quarter of 2013, we
saw the project as impressive evidence that Iowa City government made the right choice in 2009
when it decided to spend $2.4 million to purchase 173 acres near the long - established Scott Six
Industrial Park for anew industrial park for larger scale projects.
Located near the intersection of Highway 6 and Scott Boulevard — and close to rail lines — the new
park seemed ideally located for any bigger projects that came along. And over the past four years, the -
city has spent $9.5 million to extend roads and utilities to the area, and the state has chipped in $2.3
million for rail and additional road work.
The proposal with Nadicom — especially in terms of its connections to the wind industry — seemed
like a perfect option. The proposed foundry was supposed to employ machinists, engineers,
administrative staff and other related employees with an average pay of about $18 an hour, including
benefits.
In fact, the company's long -term vision dovetailed so nicely into the city's hopes for the park, that the
city folks started marketing the park as the "Wind Energy Supply Chain Campus."
Things seemed to be going well during 2011 and through the first part of 2012 — especially when
Austin Consulting Group officially certified the part as being "shovel ready."
But over the second half of last year, a good deal of wind went out of wind energy's sails (and sales).
The industry nationwide began to wobble on shaky ground as the renewal of its tax credit got tossed
around as part of the presidential campaigns.
Nadicom CEO Prasad Karunakaran recently told the Press - Citizen that he has invested too much in
an Iowa City site to give up the dream completely. But it's already the second quarter of 2013, and
not only are there no new jobs on the immediate horizon, but Nadicom officials basically have had to
go back to the drawing board as to what type of facility would still make the best use of the land
available at the park.
At best, they won't be able to move on anything until 2015. At worst, that starting date will be a
permanent question mark.
Despite this setback, we still think Iowa City made the right choice in deciding to purchase this land,
to set it aside for the type of development that usually triggers NIMBYish reactions closer to town,
and to invest in making it "shovel ready." (And we're also happy that no city money went to
Nadicom.)
Unfortunately, the bottom dropped out of the U.S. economy almost exactly has Iowa City started
preparing the ground. We can only hope — now that the economy has been making at least
incremental progress — that the reported "uptick" in number of companies interested in an Iowa City
site continues to increase.
But the city can no longer look to the wind energy alone to fill this park. That's why they've stopped
referring to it as a "Wind Energy Supply Chain Campus" and, instead, have been trying to ensure that
they have many different types of eggs coming into this industrial /manufacturing basket.
If the city still doesn't have any large -scale projects interested in the site during the next few years,
then the council will have to consider whether to divide some of those parcels for smaller projects —
at least along the edge where the sites are further from the Iowa State Railroad tracks.
In the meantime, the only dirt being moved on the "shovel ready" site is by the farmers who still use
the largely undeveloped land for crops.

QUARTERLY
INVESTMENT REPORT
January 1, 2013
im
March 31, 2013
Finance Department
Prepared by:
Brian Cover
Senior Accountant
OVERVIEW
The City of Iowa City's investment objectives are safety, liquidity and yield. The
primary objective of the City of Iowa City's investment activities is the
preservation of capital and the protection of investment principal. The City's
investment portfolio remains sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet
operating requirements that cash management procedures anticipate.
In investing public funds, the City's cash management portfolio is designed with
the objective of regularly exceeding the average return on the six month U.S.
Treasury Bill. The Treasury Bill is considered a benchmark for riskless
investment transactions and therefore comprises a minimum standard for the
portfolio's rate of return. The rolling average return on the six -month U.S.
Treasury Bill for the prior 365 days was 0.14% at 3/31/13. The investment
program seeks to achieve returns above this threshold, consistent with risk
limitations and prudent investment principles. The rate of return on the City's
entire portfolio for the quarter was 0.46% which is 32 basis points higher than the
threshold. (See exhibit A)
Investments purchased by the City of Iowa City for the third quarter of this fiscal
year had an average return of 0.25 %. Rates on new investment purchases in
our operating cash portfolio for the second quarter were approximately 3 basis
points higher than investments purchased at this time last year. Municipalities in
Iowa are still having trouble finding financial institutions willing to accept public
funds.
The federal funds rate is the interest rate at which banks lend to each other. In
the March meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee, the decision was
made to keep the target range for the federal funds rate at 0 to 1/4 percent and
currently anticipates that exceptionally low levels for the federal funds rate are
likely to be warranted at least through mid -2015. (See exhibit B)
The quarterly investment report lists investments by fund, by institution, by
maturity date, and investments purchased and redeemed.
New official state interest rates setting the minimum that may be paid by Iowa
depositories on public funds in the 180 to 364 day range during this quarter were
0.05% in January, 0.05% in February, and 0.05% in March 2013.

The following sections outline key donations made by MidAmerican to Iowa City
organizations and programs in 2012.

Iowa City Community Report
Company and economic development staff actively support Iowa City Area
Development Group, Inc. by providing support funds, time, expertise and experience to the
organization. A company representative has continually served on the ICAD board of
directors since its founding.
In addition to its annual monetary contributions to ICAD, MidAmerican brings
additional resources ICAD would not otherwise have. These resources include project
support, marketing underwriting, Location One Information System (a tool used to help
promote available buildings and sites in Iowa City which may attract new businesses to
locate in the city), EMSI (a tool to provide economic modeling assistance) and Synchronist
(a tool used to help retain and expand existing businesses) to mention a few. The total
amount contributed to ICAD for 2012 was $38,877. For the previous four years, those
totals were $40,415 in 2011, $40,425 in 2010 and $34,363 in 2009.
Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency provides significant economic benefits to Iowa City residents,
businesses, the City and the University of Iowa. MidAmerican offers several programs and
projects that impact the region.
The City of Iowa City is perhaps most familiar with MidAmerican's Trees Please!
program. In 2012, the city received a $20,000 donation. Beyond their aesthetic beauty,
trees provide shade, cooling during the summer, and permit sunlight into buildings during
the winter.
Residents and businesses benefit from the company's energy efficiency rebate
programs in two ways. First, they receive either financial incentives or low- interest
financing for incorporating specific types of energy- efficient building equipment and/or
materials, e.g. insulation, high- efficiency furnaces and air conditioners for new
construction or remodeling. Second, because they have more energy efficient homes and
businesses, less energy is being used on an annual basis resulting in lower overall energy
costs for many years to come.

One of the most popular and helpful programs has been home energy audits. To be
eligible for a home energy audit, a house must be more than 10 years old. In 2012, 202
homeowners and 16 business owners had energy audits completed. That compares to 225
homeowners and 41 business owners in 2011; 251 residences and 16 businesses in 2010;
and 296 homeowners and 28 businesses in 2009. In total, 975 homes and 101 businesses in
Iowa City have taken advantage of the program over the past four years to improve their
energy efficiency, reduce their carbon footprints and save money. MidAmerican
continually encourages all eligible home and business owners to take advantage of this
energy efficiency program.
During 2012, Iowa City residents and businesses received $1,237,892 in energy
efficiency incentives. In the previous three years, energy efficiency incentive totals were
$1,894,393 in 2011, $1,898,517 in 2010, and $1,175,517 in 2009. For the four years
covered by this report, the total for residents and businesses is $6,206,319.
In addition to the energy efficiency benefits noted above, the University of Iowa last
year received energy efficiency dollars totaling $1,705,567. In 2011, that total was
$1,351,730, $1,351,133 in 2010 and $1,832,993 in 2009. The four -year total for the
university is $6,241,423.
Based on those two programs, MidAmerican's energy efficiency programs
contributed $12,447,742 into the Iowa City economy for the most recent four -year period.
United Way
MidAmerican and its employees back United Way in many ways. In addition to
employees volunteering for various United Way committees, the company makes a
matching pledge corresponding to overall employee donations. Combined employee and
company pledges for 2012 were $15,522. Combined employee /company pledges in 2011
were $19,857, $21,000 in 2010 and $19,841 in 2009.
ICARE
ICARE is an energy assistance program that helps customers who are unemployed,
living on fixed or low incomes or experiencing a family crisis. The program provides

City Clerk

assistance by helping these customers pay their heating bills or making their homes more
energy efficient. ICARE funding comes from donations by employees and customers with
a percentage match made by the company. The ICARE program is annually advertised to
customers through quarterly newsletters, billing inserts or messages on customer bills. The
ICARE program also is supported internally by employees through the company's ICARE
— WE CARE campaign.
All donations are administered in Iowa City by Hawkeye Area Community Action
Program, Inc. (HACAP). To qualify, customers must meet the state's Low - Income Home
Energy Assistance Program guidelines. The 2012 donations from Iowa City customers and
the company's match totaled $31,206. In 2011, the total was $32,616, $34,485 in 2010 and
$48,130 in 2009.
To ensure all the donated funds can be used for their intended purpose, the company
also pays administrative fees to HACAP.
Budget Billing
Although it is not a direct philanthropic program, MidAmerican assists customers by
offering a budget - billing program. Customers sign up for a levelized, payment plan based
on past usage to allow for consistent payment; thereby, helping household budgets during
the peak heating and cooling seasons. At the end of calendar year 2012, 10,183 customers
were participating in the program, compared to 11,872 in 2011, 11,437 customers in 2010,
and 11,960 customers in 2009.
Global Days of Service
MidAmerican encourages employee volunteerism around the world, and the
company's Global Days of Service program allows employees to make our communities
better through personal volunteer work.
The company has a $250,000 matching fund to recognize employee volunteer
activities. These dollars are used to match efforts on behalf of organizations serving our
communities. The fund is divided among the organizations, based on the number of hours
that employees volunteer.
All organizations considered charitable or educational are eligible. For example,
any 501(c)(3) group or educational institution may receive funds. In addition, to recognize
Page S of
Iowa City Community Report
the importance of volunteer fire departments and other public safety organizations to our
communities, these organizations are eligible regardless of 501(c)(3) status.
For 2012, 23 volunteer hours were submitted by MidAmerican employees in the
Iowa City area and $121 was paid to eligible organizations. The amount paid to eligible
organizations was $283 in 2011, $212 in 2010 and $698 in 2009.
Matching Gift Program
The company's Matching Gift Program encourages and supplements financial
support for eligible charitable organizations and educational institutions. This program is
made available to eligible, full and part-time employees through the MidAmerican Energy
Foundation.
MidAmerican's Foundation provides $100,000 annually to match donations by
employees. The funds are used to match gifts by eligible persons on a first come, first
serve basis during the calendar year, up to the maximum of $1,500 per employee in any
calendar year.
Eligible organizations include most public or private college or university, including
graduate schools and junior colleges; alumni foundation or association of an eligible
institution; a tax - exempt foundation whose purpose is to support public or private
elementary and secondary education; or a tax- exempt organization providing cultural or
general community benefits and located in communities within the company's service
territory of Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska or South Dakota.
The aggregate total for the four years covered by this report is $118,997. For 2012,
donations from MidAmerican employees in Iowa City totaled $15,542 and the Foundation
contributed an additional $12,499 for a total of $28,041. For 2011, donations from Iowa
City employees totaled $18,550 and the Foundation contributed an additional $13,408 for a
total of $31,958. In 2010, donations from Iowa City employees and the company's match
totaled $29,980, and the 2009 total was $29,018.
The company also supports volunteer activities of its employees, working on
community projects during normal work time, such as Councilperson Michelle Payne's
service on the Iowa City Council. Another example is Junior Achievement's Taste of

Achievement fundraiser which raised nearly $22,000 in 2012. Employee Kay Ellefson has
served on the Junior Achievement Board for several years and helps out with that project.

Vice - Chairperson Neuzil called the Johnson County Board of Supervisors to order in
the Johnson County Courthouse at 5:31 p.m. Members present were: John Etheredge,
Pat Harney, Terrence Neuzil, and Rod Sullivan; absent: Janelle Rettig.
Criminal Justice Coordinating Committee Members present were: Department of
Corrections Supervisor Jerri Allen, University of Iowa Student Representative Drew
Lakin, County Attorney Janet Lyness, Iowa Bar Association Representative James
McCarragher, County Sheriff Lonny Pulkrabek, Sixth Judicial District Court Judge
Douglas Russell, and Consultation of Religious Communities Representative Dorothy
Whiston; Iowa City Public Library Adult Service Coordinator Kara Logsden arrived at
5:11 p.m. Absent: MECCA Director Ron Berg, Iowa City City Council Member Connie
Champion, Defender's Managing Attorney Peter Persaud, Citizen Representative

Deputy Auditor Nancy Tomkovicz.
PLAN FOR ADDRESSING PREVENTION, JAIL ALTERNATIVES, CASE
EXPEDITING AND RECIDIVISM AND SCHEDULING OF PUBLIC INPUT
MEETING
Neuzil said the Board will address these issues at the Board's Informal Meeting
scheduled for 5:30 p.m. today.
JAIL AND COURTHOUSE TOURS
County Sheriff Lonny Pulkrabek said Jail and Courthouse tours will continue to be
offered to the public. Neuzil encouraged residents to tour the facilities before voting.
County Attorney Janet Lyness said Courthouse tours are offered every Monday in April,
beginning at 4:00 p.m. She encouraged residents to call first so the Attorney's Office
Informal Minutes: April 3, 2013/ page 2
knows how many people to expect. Neuzil suggested service clubs and organizations
might provide a forum to increase public awareness and generate interest in tours.
OTHER REPORTS:
ALTERNATIVES AND TREATMENTS SUBCOMMITTEE
Lyness said Criminal Justice Coordinating Committee (CJCC) members should have
received the Jail Alternatives: Prevention, Diversion, Expediting, and Recidivism
Reduction Efforts report. She said she also sent members a report from MECCA. In the
first quarter of FY13, MECCA did approximately 90 substance abuse evaluations at the
Jail for accused inmates required by law to have one.
PUBLIC INFORMATION /OUTREACH SUBCOMMITTEE
Iowa Bar Association Representative James McCarragher said the updated Safety -
Security -Space questions and answers document has been uploaded to www.johnson-
county.com under the "Revised Justice Center Plan" link on the home page. Neuzil said
the numbers were updated and parts of the revised justice center planning document were
added. A new QR code was also generated, which links to the website.
Pulkrabek added that another new document on the website is called Projected
Operational Costs of Proposed Justice Center. It includes colored graphs demonstrating
additional information about the cost to operate the new facility. One question addressed
was the cost of the justice center bond for an agricultural landowner. He said the
additional cost to a sample 75 acre agriculture parcel in Hardin Township was calculated
to be $34.02.
Harney asked Pulkrabek to explain the chart about inmate food costs and how it
relates to the prisoner transport costs. Pulkrabek said the cost of three meals each day for
75 inmates during 2012 was $116,000. The costs double to feed 150 inmates. He said
Lyness calculated the costs of meals, staff, and maintenance to be $665,577. Out of $1
million, this leaves a remainder of $334,423, which could be put towards the bond
payment. In past years, these costs have reached highs of $1.3 million, but the numbers
have been down recently, which Pulkrabek attributes to Jail Alternatives programming.
Neuzil said the Projected Operational Costs of Proposed Justice Center should
include a graph about what it would cost to operate a new justice center facility versus
what is being spent now. Obviously, some savings will be realized in operational costs,
which can be reinvested into the justice center project.
FACILITIES SUBCOMMITTEE
Harney said the Facilities Subcommittee has not met, but members were informed
that it would be another two weeks before the U.S. General Services Administration will
respond with an answer about the property.
Informal Minutes: April 3, 2013/ page 3
FUNDING /GRANTS SUBCOMMITTEE
Neuzil said as is included in the updated Safety- Security -Space questions and
answers document, the reduced bond request of $43.5 million drops the impact on
residential property owners to $22.46 per $100,000 in assessed value.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS FROM CRIMINAL JUSTICE COORDINATING
COMMITTEE MEMBERS
McCarragher said the Farm Bureau members were very receptive. He said Pulkrabek
has worked on the question of what the bond would cost for a person with an average
farm. Harney said the Farm Bureau members had a lot of questions about alternate sites
the County had considered, and agreed that the group was very receptive.
Consultation of Religious Communities Representative Dorothy Whiston said
Sullivan, McCarragher, and Whiston met with the Iowa City Human Rights Commission.
An informal proposal to pass a resolution against the justice center on the basis of
disproportionate minority incarceration was rejected and instead, the Iowa City Human
Rights Commission encouraged local government entities to perform assessments on
disproportionate minority involvement in the criminal justice system. She asked if retired
University of Iowa (UI) Professor John Neff had been asked whether the statistics on
disproportionate bed days he reported in his editorial accommodated for different levels
of crime. Lyness said regarding Neff's data sample, some African - Americans had been
in jail for a very long time, which would skew the numbers.
Sixth Judicial District Court Judge Douglas Russell asked for specifics on the people
who had been in the Jail for a long time, such as those awaiting trial and serving
sentences. Lyness said the inmates in for the longest periods of time are awaiting trial.
Of these inmates, all had multiple continuances requested by the defendant or probation
violations with multiple charges. The top 20 longest stay inmates had been in for over
one year on Class A or Class B felonies.
Whiston said it would be wise to write a response to Neff's opinion piece for the
newspaper. The level of charges makes a big difference. Sullivan asked Lyness how
long the inmate recently convicted of murder was in the Jail. Lyness said the inmate is
still in the Jail while awaiting sentencing and has been in there since July 25, 2011. The
inmate in Jail for the next longest period of time is awaiting trial for murder and he has
been jailed for almost one and a half years. Another person, charged with first degree
robbery, has been in the Jail since November 30, 2011. This particular inmate has raised
the issue of competency and has been given evaluations at the Iowa Medical and
Classification Center. She said he also has failed to appear and has a long criminal
history. She said the next top offender is also charged with first degree robbery, among
other charges. She added that some Jail inmates have been pressed with serious charges.
Another person has been in since March 30, 2012 and is awaiting sentencing for
kidnapping, but has also pled on sexual abuse and extortion charges. The next person has
been in for 11 months on child endangerment charges for the death of a 19- month -old
Informal Minutes: April 3, 2013/ page 4
baby. Whiston asked if Lyness knows the race of the inmates. Lyness said the first four
are African - American, one is Asian, and the next person is a Caucasian female.
Neuzil reported that the UI Student Senate has decided to not endorse the justice
center proposal this time. UI Student Representative Drew Lakin said the student
population is lacking information on this complex issue. He said he would be happy to
distribute literature to raise public awareness.

IOWA CITY AIRPORT COMMISSION
MARCH 21, 2013 — 6:00 P.M.
AIRPORT TERMINAL BUILDING
Members Present: Howard Horan, Chris Ogren, Minnetta Gardinier, Paul Hofineyer
Members Absent: Jose Assouline
Staff Present: Sue Dulek, Michael Tharp
Others Present: Matt Wolford, Philip Wolford, Eric Scott, David Hughes
RECOMMENDATIONS TO COUNCIL: Ito become effective only after separate Council
action): None
CALL TO ORDER:
Tharp noted that due to chair's absence and the secretary's term having expired on February
28, he would act as temporary chair, and he called the meeting to order at 6:07 P.M.
a. Hangar L/M Tour: Tharp asked the Commission to move the tour to the first
item. Ogren moved to amend the agenda, seconded by Horan. Motion carried 4 -0 (Assouline
absent). Tharp escorted members and members of the public to the Hangar L and M buildings
for a tour and description of the recently completed projects. Members then returned to the
conference room for the remainder of the meeting.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS:
Tharp noted that they need to open the floor for nominations for Chair. Horan nominated
Gardinier. Gardinier suggested they nominate Horan. Ogren asked how long Horan has been
on the Commission. Horan noted that he has been on the Commission the last 19 years, with
three years off at one point. Others asked if he would accept the Chair nomination, to which he
responded that he would. Horan moved to nominate Gardinier for Chair; no second given.
Motion died. Gardinier moved to nominate Horan for Chair; seconded by Ogren. Motion
carried 3 -0. (Assouline absent, Horan Abstained)
At this point Horan asked for nominations for Secretary. Horan moved to nominate Ogren for
Secretary; seconded by Gardinier. Motion carried 3 -0. (Assouline absent Ogren
Abstained). Ogren asked for a brief rundown of just what this position will entail, and Members
responded.
APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES:
Minutes of the February 21, 2013, meeting were reviewed. Ogren stated that under item b,
toward the bottom of page 1, "...when there were active," should read "...when they were
active." Also, the last line of item b, "...when they a couple days away," should be "...when they
are a couple days away." Moving to the last page, Ogren noted under j, "...let people know
about these and upcoming availability for the Commission." She questioned what this was
meant to be. Tharp stated that at this time they were talking about the open seats on the
Commission and recruiting new Members. Tharp will review this to be sure. Ogren then noted

on page 2, under item e, she questioned it having David Hughes' name here since he was not
able to make the meeting. Dulek noted that the agenda has his name on it and that the minutes
are taken from this. She also noted that the wording does show Hughes was absent. Ogren
moved to approve the minutes as amended; seconded by Horan. Motion carried 4 -0,
Assouline absent.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION:
None.
ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION /ACTION:
b. Airport Commerce Park — Tharp noted that Edberg is not present this evening.
Dulek added that Carousel Motors has submitted building plans now, so the last
two lots are now beginning to see some progress. She added that there is one
issue going before Council regarding an access easement, but that this will most
likely move forward with no problems. Gardinier asked if there has been any
interest in the remaining lots. Tharp stated that there has not been any, to his
knowledge.
C. Fly Iowa — Ogren stated that she believes they need to make an official decision
on this event if they are going to host it or not. She asked new Member,
Hofineyer, if he was familiar with this event and she briefly filled him in on what
has taken place so far. Gardinier noted that McDonald did send her an email
recently, asking if there was interest by Iowa City to host the 2014 Fly Iowa
event. She stated that she responded that there was interest, but that they
needed to get some solid commitments. She added that she believes each of
them needs to take on some role to make this event happen. Horan asked if
Gardinier and Ogren could identify the major tasks that need to be done.
Members continued to discuss the Fly Iowa event, with Gardinier and Ogren
asking others to step forward and play a part in the planning for this. Jet Air also
verbalized their interest in taking a part in this. Gardinier added that raising
money will also be an issue. She asked if Jet Air would be willing to contribute,
such as they did with the Air Race Classic event.
The conversation continued with members discussing what all will need to be
done in order to host this event. Contacting local groups, such as the
Barnstormers, is something that Gardinier has done to see if they would like to
collaborate on this event. Gardinier stated that she did hear back from the
Barnstormers group and that they would be interested in some capacity. Horan
asked if they shouldn't break down the tasks so they can get a feel for just what
they will need to do. There was a list around from the 2001 event that Tharp will
attempt to locate. Gardinier began to break down some of the areas as she
remembers them: youth aviation piece — Deb Dunkcase would be able to handle
this piece. Media — they need to get people from the media involved, such as
Chuck Peters who owns the Gazette, as he is a pilot. Other ideas for
collaboration were to get someone from the City involved, as well as the Fire
Department and Police Department, and others around the community from
various backgrounds engaged, as well. Another idea was to contact Rockwell
Collins and request flight simulators and possibly even a grant to help with the
financing.
Airport Commission
March 21, 2013
Page 3
The discussion continued, with Members looking at every aspect of hosting the
2014 Fly Iowa event. Parking at the Fairgrounds with some type of shuttle to the
Airport was one issue raised. Tharp stated that he could make some calls to see
if the Fairgrounds was available. Members agreed that at this point they need to
give an official 'yes,' review the contract, and get a committee together for the Fly
Iowa 2014 event. Tharp suggested having McDonald to the next meeting to
answer Members' questions and to get things rolling. Gardinier suggested they
wait another meeting, until they have time to review all of the data they have thus
far. She will get this information together and can also create more of a
committee structure for the next meeting, as well. Members agreed with this plan
of action.
d. FAA/IDOT Projects: AECOM / David Hughes
i. 7/25 Parallel Taxiway Paving & Lighting — Hughes stated that hopefully
one day soon it will stop snowing and the ground will thaw out. They have been
in contact with the contractor and are getting things laid out, but it all depends on
the weather. Horan asked what the next step is, and Hughes responded briefly.
Gardinier stated that she noticed some cracks starting in the paving by her
hangar. Hughes noted that this is something they need to discuss, as far as
DOT maintenance money, as it does need some maintenance in this area. Jet
Air will look into this further, to sweep away the chunks of asphalt.
ii. Airport Electrical Rehab — On this item Hughes noted there are several
punchlist items that need to be finished up before they can release this, but this
is also weather - dependent.
iii. FY2014 Iowa DOT Grant Application — Hughes stated that he has been
working with Tharp on this. They have come up with a list of several items. This
is due in early May. Tharp stated that by next meeting they will have this
formalized. One of the main items is the fuel tank repainting and rehab;
overlaying the north -south taxiway after the other rehabs are complete; and then
rehabbing the pavement around the hangars. Tharp continued, explaining the
various items that need to be addressed in this application. Ogren asked for
some clarification of the local match amounts and Tharp explained how this is
typically handled. Members continued to discuss the grant application and the
projects that could be covered under this. Tharp stated that they will put together
several options, depending on the money available, and should have something
for Members to approve at the next meeting. The deadline is May 9th
e. Airport Operations
i. Strategic Plan — Implementation — Tharp noted that he doesn't have
anything new here to share. Going back to this topic, Gardinier asked if there
has been a serious discussion regarding this plan lately. Tharp noted that there
has not been. She suggested they review this yearly and perhaps move a
project or two forward. Members agreed to add this to next month's agenda.
ii. Budget — Tharp stated that they are doing well budget -wise. He added
that with regards to the budget, they did go ahead with the fuel tank cleaning, as
mentioned in last month's meeting. The estimate was $2,800 and the final bill
was at $2,650, according to Tharp. Horan added that the accounting sheets are
very difficult to read. Tharp stated that the City is updating a lot of its software
and it should be online in July.

1. Operations Specialist Evaluation — Tharp noted that since
Assouline is not present, and he is the main one responsible for this
year's review, that they defer one more meeting. Horan asked if Tharp
had emailed this information to Hofineyer, stating that it would help him to
understand the process they go through to do this.
f. FBO / Flight Training Reports
L Jet Air — Matt and Philip Wolford were present from Jet Air. Matt
reviewed the maintenance reports to date. For February, he noted the large
snowstorms they have had and all of the work they've had to put into plowing and
de- icing. A fuel vent on the AV tank was replaced due to some possible leakage.
March has brought another snowstorm, and also a run on light bulbs around the
Airport. Philip shared that there isn't much to report right now. With spring
approaching, he hopes to see increased activity.
ii. Iowa Flight Training — Gardinier suggested Tharp contact IFT to see
how things are going since they have not heard from him in quite some time.
g. Subcommittee Reports
I. For March: Members began to review the various subcommittees, with
new Members receiving some history on the various committees. Tharp
explained who is typically on each subcommittee and how they work on items
such as the budget, community liaison, and economic development. This led to
a discussion about the Air Race Classic making Iowa City a stop in their 2014
event. Gardinier added that she thought this had been taken care of, and Tharp
noted that he has been in touch with them, and plans are being finalized.
Members continued to discuss the open seats on the subcommittees, with Ogren
stating that she would be glad to sit on several. Horan switched himself around
on several different committees. The discussion turned to how they might
collaborate with area businesses, such as the motels on Riverside Drive, or even
host a monthly steak fry or something similar to bring more traffic to the Airport.
Tharp noted that they are looking at acquiring a grill and a picnic bench for the
Airport. Gardinier suggested they revisit the viewing area plans and perhaps set
these things up there. The newer Members joined in on the subcommittees, as
well.
h. Commission Members' Reports — Horan asked Hofineyer to share something
about himself with the Committee. Hofineyer introduced himself, adding that he
earned his private pilot's license while in college. After several years away from
flying, last summer he got back into aviation and is currently just renting the 172
from Iowa Flight Training. Hofineyer continued, sharing that he has a chemical
engineering background. He currently works at Rockwell Collins as a Senior
Quality Engineer. Ogren shared the progress of their airplane that her husband
is building at home. Gardinier stated that she just got back from a flight to
Tennessee this past weekend. She shared a story of how when she was leaving
for Tennessee the other day, she accidentally ran off the runway into some mud.
Horan shared that he heard the City received an award recently for their "open
government" and he congratulated the staff. Horan then shared that he returned
safely to the ground with his 14th CFI (certified flight instructor) in three years.
Horan now has somewhere around 45 flight hours under his belt.
Staff Report — Tharp noted that the Iowa Aviation conference is next month —
April 24th and 25th. The format has changed somewhat, so this year, according to
Tharp, the 25th is the day where everything is happening, and the 24th is the Iowa
Public Airport Association's general meeting and a pilot seminar that evening.

He shared that he has been asked to be a speaker this year, and this sparked a
discussion by Members on attending this year's conference. Tharp asked that
Members let him know if they plan to attend. He will get the information about
the meeting and the daily agendas to Members so they can make their decision
about attending. Tharp then mentioned some zoning issues that have come up
regarding building heights, the FAA, and that type of thing. Dulek further
explained the history behind this and how the Airport Zoning and Board of
Adjustment Commissions may need to be revived. Members were encouraged
to talk to members in the community about serving on these newly revived
committees. Dulek noted that there will be more on this issue in upcoming
agendas. Gardinier added that she will draft an email and have Dulek review it
before she sends it out to the EAA, for example, to recruit new committee
members.
