MAYOR ATTEST: CITY CLERK Approved by City Attorney's Office NNNN\ o v VO .11 n-� v c:13 Es cn 05-01-18 6a STAFF REPORT To: Planning and Zoning Commission Prepared by: Sarah Walz, Assistant Planner Item: REZ18-00002 Date: March 1, 2017 1705 Prairie Du Chien Road GENERAL INFORMATION: Applicant: Ross Nusser 250 Holiday Road Coralville, IA 52241 319-331-5206 RossNusser@urbanacres.com Property Owner: Hawkeye Trailer Court LLC 3169 Dubuque Street NE Iowa City, IA 52240 suemoore@qwestoffice.net Requested Action: Rezone from OPD/RS-12 to RM-12 Purpose: To allow for the development of multi-family housing Location: 1705 Prairie Du Chien Road Size: 82,328.4 square feet or 1.89 acres Existing Land Use and Zoning: Planned Development Overlay/High Density Single Family Residential (OPD/RS-12), manufactured housing Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North: Residential, RS-12 and OPD/RS-12 South: Residential, RS-12 East: Residential, RS-5 West: Undeveloped, OPD/RS-12 Comprehensive Plan: North District Plan Neighborhood Open Space District: Foster Road File Date: January 25, 2018 45 Day Limitation Period: March 11, 2018 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The applicant, Ross Nusser, is requesting a rezoning of a 1.89-acre property, located at 1705 Prairie du Chien Road, from Planned Development Overlay/High Density Single Family Residential (OPD/RS-12) to Low Density Multifamily Residential (RM-12). The site is currently occupied by Hawkeye Trailer Court. This small manufactured housing park has 2 occupied the site since the 1960s and is basically unchanged in its layout. Eleven housing units are provided and 9 units are believed to be occupied. The applicant has indicated that they have used the "Good Neighbor Policy." A neighborhood meeting was held on February 21 at the Iowa City Public Library. Residents of the mobile home park have also been notified of the proposed sale of the property by the owner in a letter sent on February 3. The applicant also contacted in person and held a meeting with residents on February 19. ANALYSIS: Current Zoning: The property is currently zoned OPD/RS12—a zoning designation applied to all manufactured housing developments. The original zoning for the property was Factory-Built Housing Residential (RFBH)—a designation that was discontinued when the City adopted its current zoning code in 2005. At the time of the code update, all RFBH zones were re-designated High Density Single-Family (RS-12) with a Planned Development Overlay (OPD). The underlying zoning for the property allows for single-family, duplex, and/or townhome development. Proposed Zoning: The applicant proposes to rezone the property to Low Density Multi-Family Residential (RM-12)zone. The purpose of the RM-12 zone is to allow for the development of high density single-family housing and low density multi-family housing. The RM-12 zone is intended to provide a diverse variety of housing options in neighborhoods throughout the city. Careful attention to site and building design is important to ensure that the various housing types in any one location are compatible with one another. Based on the lot area, the property could support up to 30 multi-family units, provided all parking and dimensional standards are met (building heights are limited to 35 ft with additional limits on structures located within 15 feet of a residential zone). Compliance with Comprehensive Plan: The North District Plan addresses the potential for redevelopment in this area at such time as Foster Road is extended to Prairie du Chien: "If Foster Road is extended, it will open up the possibility of new development in this part of the district. The traffic capacity of an extended Foster Road could accommodate development of small apartments, townhouses, and single-family homes in this area. . . . A mobile home park currently exists just south of the location where Foster Road would connect with Prairie du Chien Road. If this property were ever to be redeveloped it should be reserved for small apartment buildings or similar multi-family housing to maintain a mix of housing in the area." The Comprehensive Plan contemplates infill development and the role it plays in neighborhood reinvestment, including rehabilitating existing structures or encouraging new development of vacant, blighted, or deteriorated property. The plan notes that the development or redevelopment of such sites should add to the diversity of housing options without compromising neighborhood character or over-burdening infrastructure. Integrating diverse housing sizes and types throughout the community increases the opportunity for people to live in the same neighborhood throughout the stages of life. By allowing for a mix of housing types, moderately priced housing can be incorporated into a neighborhood, rather than segregated in one or two areas of the community. In 2017, City Council adopted fifteen affordable housing strategies, including a policy to address tenant displacement, which includes the following: 3 • Council approval of major site plans when 12 or more households will be displaced and there is no accompanying rezoning. • Such applications would require a transition plan to better inform residents and the public (requires a comprehensive plan and a site plan ordinance amendment). The City Council also amended the Comprehensive Plan to address situations in which residents are displaced by new development. The Plan now includes the following goal in its Housing section: "Mitigate the impact of large scale residential redevelopment: Mitigate the impact of redevelopment on occupants of proposed projects involving the remodeling or reconstruction of existing multi-family residential dwellings by fostering communication between property owners and occupants through sufficient notice requirements, and encouraging the developer to create thoughtful transition plans that seek to accommodate the relocation needs of current occupants." In addition, the "Community Vision Statement" in the Plan calls for "fostering communication among owners, redevelopers, and occupants to mitigate the impact of redevelopment of existing residential properties." Council approval of the site plan is not required both because the subject property is being rezoned and the number of residents displaced falls beneath the 12-unit threshold. The principles of the comprehensive plan regarding displacement may be considered in connection with the rezoning. The applicant has worked proactively to meet the City's goals for displacement. Following notice by the property owner, which was mailed to residents in a letter dated February 3, the applicant has taken the following steps: 1. Contacted each resident personally (one resident was not reached in person but was contacted by phone). 2. A resident meeting was held at the Iowa City Public Library on February 19. • The applicant collected concerns of the residents • The applicant provided a resource list, including contact information for other manufactured housing developments (copy attached). 3. The applicant intends to offer an extended notice of transition, no less than 120 days. 4.The applicant is actively working with City staff to identify relocation funds to assist residents. Compatibility with neighborhood: The surrounding neighborhood is predominantly single- family housing. A recent rezoning and subdivision of 53.29 acres, located directly to the north of the subject property, calls for the construction of the Foster Road extension and allows the development of commercial and residential uses: senior housing located within a multi-family structure and 59 townhome units to be located along the new extension of Foster Road, east of Prairie du Chien Road. Environmentally Sensitive Areas: Steep slopes and groves of trees appear to be present on the western half of the property. Development that encroaches into these areas may require an overlay planned development rezoning. The applicant does not plan to encroach into these areas and so an OPD plan is not required at this time. Traffic implications: Due to the topography, the street network north of Dodge Street has limited connectivity. The extension of Foster Road will provide an alternative east-west street route through the area and provide for better multi-modal connectivity in the northern part of the city. and is considered necessary to allow for increased density for properties in this area. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of REZ18-00002, a proposal to rezone approximately 1.89 acres of 4 property located at 1705 Prairie du Chien Road from Planned Overlay Development High Density Single-Family (OPD-RS12) zone to Low Density Multi-Family (RM-12) zone, subject to a requirement that the applicant provide to the occupants a notice of transition in writing and provide no less than 120 days from the date of rezoning approval by Council. No permits should be issued until such time lapses unless all occupants are off the site before the 120 days. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Location Map 2. Aerial Photograph 3.

Miklo answered that it would be 36 foot wide and would have two travel lanes with protected bike lanes in each direction and sidewalks on both sides of the street. Freerks closed the public discussion. Hensch made a motion to defer SUB18-00002 to the March 15 meeting. Signs seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0. REZONING ITEM REZ18-00003: Discussion of an application submitted by Hodge Construction for a rezoning of approximately 1.1 acres from Intensive Commercial (CI-1) zone to Riverfront Crossings – Central Crossings (RFC-CX) zone for property located at 225 & 225 1/2 E. Prentiss Street. Miklo said that the applicant has requested that this item be deferred to the March 15 meeting to allow time to revise the concept plan. Hensch made a motion to defer REZ18-00003 to the March 15 meeting. Signs seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0. REZONING ITEM REZ18-00002: Discussion of an application submitted by Ross Nusser for a rezoning of approximately 1.89 acres from Planned Development Overlay/High Density Single Family Residential (OPD/RS-12) to Low Density Multifamily Residential (RM-12) located at 1705 Prairie Du Chien Road. Walz began the staff report by showing an aerial of the area and a map showing zoning of the surrounding area. She discussed the current land use and zoning and discussed the proposed RM-12 zoning, which would allow a maximum of 30 units on this property based on lot area. The applicant has not submitted a concept plan for development and it is not known whether this density can be achieved. She mentioned the potential for sensitive areas on the property and indicated the applicant does not intend to develop areas with sensitive features. She noted that the property may contain sensitive areas—slopes and or groves of trees. She discussed the North District Plan, which states that with the development of Foster Road, new development could occur in this area and this property could be redeveloped as multi-family. She then reviewed recent amendments to the Comprehensive Plan to address resident displacement. While the policy does not technically apply to this property because it has fewer than 12 units, the applicant has taken a number of steps to communicate and gather input from the residents, including contacting residents in person, holding a meeting for residents, compiling a list of Planning and Zoning Commission March 1, 2018—Formal Meeting Page 3 of 10 resources, offering no less than 120 days' notice for relocation, and working with the City and other sources to identify funds for relocation to assist residents. Staff recommends approval, subject to a condition that the applicant provides residents with 120 days of notice for relocation. Freerks asked whether there is a concept plan indicating what new development would be on this property. Walz indicated that this had not been submitted and applicant was still deciding how he would develop the property. This had been the topic of discussion at the Good Neighbor meeting where he gathered input from the neighbors. Martin asked whether there were notes from the neighborhood meeting. Walz said that she had attended the meeting for the neighborhood meeting for surrounding residents. Neighbors who attended had been generally supportive though they expressed concern for the residents of the trailer park. She noted that the applicant would be able to speak to the concerns heard at the meeting for residents of the property proposed for rezoning. Freerks asked what could be developed on the property under the current RS-12 zone. Walz responded that in terms of detached single-family homes, the development potential would be limited without encroaching into sensitive areas. Miklo noted that the RS-12 would allow for a small number of townhomes on lots of 3,000 square feet and duplexes on lots of 6,000 square feet. This would require an alley. Freerks opened the public hearing. Ross Nusser(applicant) spoke concerning relocation of the residents of the mobile home park and his frustration that not enough is done to ensure smooth transitions for the residents, some of whom have lived here for 30-40 years. Because of the extension of Foster Road, redevelopment of this property is likely and he is concerned that the residents could be forced to relocate with short notice if the property redevelops without a rezoning. He discussed his meetings with residents of the subject property and the surrounding neighborhood, including a good neighbor meeting. Commissioners asked for minutes from the meeting for trailer park residents, but Ross responded that none were taken. The commission asked for more information on whether they could require financial assistance for relocation of residents. Walz deferred to the City Attorney. Goers indicated that while the trailer park fell beneath the 12-unit threshold in the comprehensive plan, the spirit of the plan was to ensure that residents of affordable units such as this were accommodated fairly. So long as any assistance was in scale with the impact of the rezoning, it could be attached as a condition. Nusser noted that some of the residents were present. Commission asked him about more specific concept plans for the site. He responded that he was focused on the issue of relocation but agreed to prepare more detailed plans if deferred until the March 15th meeting. Nancy Purington (1706 Prairie Du Chien Road) spoke about her concerns about the traffic on Prairie Du Chien Road. Her property is directly across from the subject property. She reported Planning and Zoning Commission March 1, 2018—Formal Meeting Page 4 of 10 high speeds on Prairie Du Chien and difficulty turning into/out of her driveway. She is concerned that this may get worse when Foster Road is extended and if additional density is added on the subject property. She requested that a traffic study be conducted in this general area with information on traffic counts and speeds. She also expressed her preference that multi-family housing on the subject property not exceed 2-story because no buildings in the surrounding area are taller than 2 stories. Laureen Ipsen (1710 Prairie Du Chien Road) also spoke about traffic concerns on Prairie Du Chien, especially with the extension of Foster Road. She asked about the possibility of multi- family housing on the redeveloped site having access from Foster Road. She asked if Foster Road will be a wider street than Prairie Du Chien; staff responded that it will be (2-lanes of traffic with buffered bike lanes). She was concerned about adding density in an area with traffic issues. Curt Vangerpen (Dubuque Street) is one of the owners of the mobile home park. He said that he had not intended to give residents short notice, however, the infrastructure at the trailer park was in need of major improvement. He discussed maintenance issues related to sanitary sewer and water lines which contribute to the need to redevelop the area. He noted that a year ago the City said that the extension of Foster Road was at least seven years away and he believed he would need to make substantial upgrades to water and sewer to keep the park going. When the recent decision came to build Foster Road he realized that it was an opportunity for him to avoid making these substantial repairs. He reported making repairs to the sewer lines in December, but states that these lines are very old and could stop working in the near future, which would displace residents with little notice. He expressed concern about this relocation, but stated that continuing to maintain the mobile home park is not feasible. He noted that there was no place in Iowa City that is more affordable to live than his trailer park, but the necessary improvements would require him to raise rent. Rick Stevenson (853 St. Anne's Drive) also noted the speed and volume of traffic on Prairie du Chien Road and requested any increased density have driveway access onto Foster Road. Mark Tade (1706 Prairie du Chien Road): He noted that he lives several hundred feet from the Interstate but the sound of traffic is quite intense. He said it was not possible to hold a conversation in his back yard during the summer. He said he thought it was important to preserve any trees in the area as they offer some buffer from the noise. Miklo noted that the Foster Road rezoning preserves a large number of wooded area and that the City's subdivision regulations require a 300-foot buffer from the Interstate for new residential structures. Nusser spoke again and expressed his desire to work with residents but his need for some direction from the Commission. He indicated that the rezoning would allow him to better determine what options he could provide to assist with relocation. Several commissioners expressed the need for more information from the developer, both in terms of the proposed development and a relocation plan. Planning and Zoning Commission March 1, 2018—Formal Meeting Page 5 of 10 Dyer expressed a concern that the applicant had not presented a plan for relocation or a plan for how he would develop the property. She said it makes it difficult for the Commission to make a decision when there are so many unknowns. Signs indicated that they felt they could make a better recommendation in terms of relocation plan if they had some idea from the developer and the currents residents what the needs were and what the developer felt he could reasonably afford. Commissioners acknowledged that redevelopment was a matter of time and that everyone involved was trying to be fair. Freerks stated that there was a need to know how this new development would fit into the neighborhood and that usually such re-zonings were accompanied by a concept plan of some sort. She understood that the applicant had the best of intentions and was sensitive to the neighborhood but that the Commission had been disappointed by some developments in the past and this would be the first multi-family in this neighborhood so it was important to get it right. Nusser reiterated his willingness to come forward with a plan and requested to defer to March 15. He stated that there were two issues: the redevelopment of the property and the difficult circumstance of relocating the residents and that he wished to address both. Hensch moved to recommend approval of deferring REZ18-00002 until the March 15 meeting. Signs seconded the motion. A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0. REZONING ITEM REZ17-00015: Discussion of an application submitted by Cardinal Pointe West, LLC for a rezoning of approximately 7.84 acres from Interim Development Research Development Park (IDRP)to Low Density Multifamily (RM-12) located west of Camp Cardinal Boulevard and east of Deer Creek Road. Bochner stated this property is currently zoned Interim Development Research Development Park (IDRP) which is a designation given to undeveloped land when that land does not have the infrastructure necessary for development. At this time infrastructure is in place for this property so it is appropriate to rezone but the Interim Development-Research Park indicates that was a foreseen use. The proposed zoning for this lot is Low Density Multi-Family (RM-12) which allows for both high density single-family housing and low density multi-family housing to provide a diverse variety of housing options. Because of this mixture, attention to site and building design is important in this zone to ensure compatibility. The applicant has submitted a Sensitive Areas Site Plan that shows three multi-family building on this parcel which contain a total of 108 1- and 2-bedroom units (36 units per building). All three buildings will have access from a driveway off Deer Creek Road with parking provided under the building and in the surface lot located between buildings. Bochner showed images of the current state of the property and then the proposed sensitive areas site plan. The zoning ordinance indicates that multifamily buildings should be oriented with at least one facade facing a public or private street or an interior courtyard. As shown currently this proposal doesn't meet that standard but the applicant indicated they will apply for a minor modification due to sensitive features on the property and steep slopes on the Camp Cardinal Boulevard frontage. MINUTES APPROVED PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION APRIL 2, 2018— 5:15 PM—WORK SESSION HELLING CONFERENCE ROOM, CITY HALL MEMBERS PRESENT: Carolyn Dyer, Ann Freerks, Mike Hensch, Phoebe Martin, Max Parsons, Mark Signs, Jodie Theobald MEMBERS ABSENT: STAFF PRESENT: Sara Hektoen, Bob Miklo, Sarah Walz OTHERS PRESENT: CALL TO ORDER: Freerks called the meeting to order at 5:15 PM. REZONING ITEM (REZ18-00002): Discussion of an application submitted by Ross Nusser for a rezoning of approximately 1.89 acres from Planned Development Overlay/High Density Single Family Residential (OPD/RM-12) zone to Low Density Multifamily Residential (RM-12) zone for the property located at 1705 Prairie Du Chien Road. Walz noted the Commission had asked for more information and staff is hopeful that by Thursday's meeting the applicant will have a proposal regarding relocation assistance for current residents. Martin asked if the confusion is because City Council stated that there had to be 12 units displaced to require a relocation plan and there are only 10 in this situation. Hektoen said that is for projects where there is no rezoning, there is a rezoning in this situation and the Commission can impose conditions to meet public need imposed by the rezoning and require relocation or transition plans. Walz noted that this is a unique situation as it is manufactured housing and while a person may own their home, they have no rights to the land. Freerks added that because the home are all older and may not be able to be moved, so this is a special case and not like an apartment structure that is being removed and there are other apartment options. Freerks also asked if the homes were rented, who received the relocation money, the home owner or the renter. Those are the details and questions that need to be decided. Walz said most are long-term occupied, but unsure of how many are owner-occupied or rentals. Freerks added that in the past they have required relocation plans for manufactured housing areas before, such as when HyVee was built on 15t Avenue, so there are plans to follow. Parsons added that these situations are difficult and it takes a while to go through all the steps and make sure the best solution is found. Planning and Zoning Commission April 2, 2018—Work Session Page 2 of 6 Freerks asked about the proposal, and the underground parking and the outdoor plaza. Walz said that will likely be patio space. Freerks noted that the best view from that property is the back and perhaps that is where the outdoor plaza should be. Parsons asked if the building was two or three stories. There was an indication that it would be limited to two but some of the pictures show three. Walz said staff has not had a chance to have a conversation with the applicant to clarify, her sense is that the photos they submitted are examples of possible designs. Freerks noted she hopes the applicant has design images to show on Thursday to the Commission. Miklo stated the applicant expressed a concern regarding the expense of drawing up a design plan with the uncertainty of when the rezoning would be approved. Miklo felt the bigger concern for the Commission and Council should be the relocation. Walz added that staff felt if the applicant is unsure of what exactly they wanted to build, if they could at least present footprints of how they would arrange the lot, a concept of how many units they would propose, etc. REZONING ITEM (REZ17-00015): Discussion of an application submitted by Cardinal Pointe West, LLC for a rezoning of approximately 7.84 acres from Interim Development Research Development Park(IDRP) zone to Low Density Multifamily (RM-12) zone for the property located west of Camp Cardinal Boulevard and east of Deer Creek Road. Miklo recalled one of the concerns of the Commission at the last meeting were the buffer from the Highway 218 and the applicant has submitted a new plan. When the City rewrote the Subdivision Code in 2008 they did research and looked at HUD and DOT guidelines about residential development near highways and of course the farther you get away, the better, and there is also a decibel level that is considered acceptable through HUD (for financing). So that is when the 300 foot buffer was created, from research as to that being where the noise level begins to drop off. The other concern is the fumes, the closer one lives to the highway the more carcinogens one is exposed to. So those are the rationales for the City's guideline of 300 feet buffer. Hektoen added that this situation is similar to the last one, it is not required by zoning for this situation to have the 300 foot buffer (it is not a subdivision), however again the Commission can the Commission can impose conditions to meet public need imposed by the rezoning. Freerks stated this is exactly a situation where they would apply such a condition as a principle. Miklo clarified that the 300 feet is measured from the right-of-way of Highway 218. He stated that the applicant has submitted a new plan to address the concerns of the Commission. Previously the one building was 35 feet from the property line and approximately 190 feet from Highway 218 and the new plan shows that building 67 feet from the property line and about 230 feet from Highway 218. In moving the building back 30 feet they then were also able to provide a landscaping buffer on their property, not partially in the city right-of-way as previously shown. The City Forrester had voiced a concern regarding being responsible for maintaining trees in that location. Additionally moving the tree buffers 30 feet places them higher on the lot and better Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 5 of 13 A vote was taken and the motion carried 6-0. REZONING ITEM (REZ18-00002): Discussion of an application submitted by Ross Nusser for a rezoning of approximately 1.89 acres from Planned Development Overlay/High Density Single Family Residential (OPD/RM-12) zone to Low Density Multifamily Residential (RM-12) zone for the property located at 1705 Prairie Du Chien Road. Walz noted that before the meeting Staff distributed a letter they received from one of the neighbors regarding this development. She stated that the Commission discussed the rezoning two meetings ago and the Commission had requested a couple of things. First requested was a better sense of what was being proposed and then also a baseline for a relocation plan for current residents. Walz reiterated how they got to this point. The North District Plan, when written, contemplated that the current mobile home park might one day go away and there was a desire expressed in the Comprehensive Plan to maintain a diversity of housing so it contemplated a small apartment building would be appropriate at this location, particularly when Foster Road extension was completed. The Comprehensive Plan talks about the Foster Road extension making possible a greater variety and a greater density within the neighborhood. When the Commission reviewed the Foster Road rezoning it was discussed that the models looked at for transportation would provide some cross-connectivity that might alleviate the traffic south of Foster Road on Prairie Du Chien. Therefore, the applicant has proposed a development with a 24-unit apartment building in two parts, with most of the parking underground, they have provided a setback from the adjacent single-family property to the south, with an exterior playground area. It was noted in the neighborhood meetings the desire that this property be somewhere that invited longer-term residents, including families. The other issue Walz noted was the proposal for relocation assistance which the applicant will have to speak to. Freerks asked if there were any waivers or special issues with this application. Walz replied that it is not an Overlay Development Plan like the previous application. Freerks asked if the Commission would see this application again. or if the design would just be approved by Staff. Miklo confirmed that was the case unless the Commission conditioned the approval. Freerks opened the public hearing. Ross Nusser (250 Holiday Road. Coralville) is the applicant and can discuss the relocation plan. They have not worked out all the specific nor been in contact with the residents since the last meeting, they are willing to commit to $1,000 in relocation benefits to each resident who is in the trailer park. They are also willing to offer a minimum of nine months for relocation after the approval of rezoning. With regards to the design, the plan they are showing tonight is just conceptual as there are still discussions with regards to the other parcel and what the City or neighboring residents might want or desire there, perhaps a driveway that connects to Foster Road. He noted that they are trying to appease so many different people so it is not easy. They did review the North Side District Plan Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 6 of 13 and acknowledged it notes that the area should be reserved for small buildings of multi-family housing to maintain a mix of housing in the area and with the images they are sharing tonight he feels they can achieved that but cannot commit to an exact design at this time. He added they just won't know exactly what will work best until they get through the zoning process. He reiterated that the first priority is the transition of the current residents and the second priority is how a development will mix with the neighborhood. They are currently showing a two-story building, there is the ability to do a three story building within the zoning they are requesting, but they don't feel that would fit within the neighborhood. Nusser stated that the images shown of possible buildings were drawn just for the benefit of the Commission, but they do only want to move forward with the best intentions. Nusser will continue to work with City staff on the best solutions for moving forward and will meet any restrictions imposed upon them. Martin asked why this is a work in progress and not a complete design at this time. Nusser said it is a work in progress because at this time they do not have any title or connection to the area that is City of Iowa City right-of-way. One of the biggest questions from Nancy Purington and some of the other neighbors is the connectivity to Foster Road which cannot happen if they do not have title to the connection area. Freerks commented on the conversation about curves and right-of-way and she noted that if the development connects via Foster Road it will be at a curve there too and therefore doesn't see one option as being better than the other. Nusser noted it is more of an issue that they want to make accommodation for the people who live in the area and the neighbors have indicated their interest is to have the connectivity to Foster Road versus Prairie Du Chien. Nusser personally doesn't have a preference, but this is out of respect to the neighbors. Freerks understands but feels it would be more difficult of a design to connection via Foster Road. Parsons asked if they anticipate the buildings being mostly one and two-bedroom units. Nusser confirmed that is the intention. Freerks asked about the outdoor amenities. Nusser said they are open to including any required outdoor amenities. Hensch added that if the goal is to have long term tenants in this development then having nice outdoor amenities is necessary, such as play areas for families, etc. Nusser agreed. Hensch also noted his concern with traffic and stated with the new Foster Road, it is hard to anticipate what the traffic will be. Freerks stated with one and two-bedroom units it won't be a huge increase in traffic to the area. Signs stated that with some of the input from the last meeting and the letters the Commission has received, it seems that if there is a traffic problem it is not relevant to this particular piece, if people are speeding in the area then that needs to be address separately. Ray Anderson (2155 Prairie Du Chien Road) lives north of this area and has another property on 1 Caroline Court which is on the corner of Prairie Du Chien Road and can't for the life of him see why the City would want to put an apartment complex in that area, it is a big area of single family houses, mostly small ranches with nice yards and feels this will change the whole nature of the property. Anderson states he has lived in the area for 40 years and Prairie Du Chien is a heavily traveled road with lots of traffic from the developments to the north. He is happy that Foster Road is being extended but doesn't feel an apartment complex is going to do anything at all for the residents of the area. Anderson foresees a lot of traffic safety problems with a development of that Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 7 of 13 size in the area. He added that the sidewalks on that side of Prairie Du Chien stop right there, before the freeway, and it is dangerous seeing people bicycling and walking there and to expand the number of people in this area is not a good idea. Laureen Ipsen (1710 Prairie Du Chien Road) said her house is directly across the street from the proposed driveway of this development. She said that the statement that the driveway would either spill out on Foster Road on a curve or Prairie Du Chien on a curve is true but the difference is in the width of the roads. She notices now people trying to make a left turn into the trailer park and cars can really get backed up and feels that will only get worse with the addition of Foster Road traffic coming to Prairie Du Chien. She added that Prairie Du Chien is a narrow road already being shared with bicyclists and Foster Road will be two lanes with added bicycle lanes so if this development entrance was off Foster Road it would be easier for people to get around the cars stopped trying to make a left turn into the development. Ipsen has talked with many residents on Prairie Du Chien and they are already having problems backing out of their driveways onto Prairie Du Chien. In this proposed development she counted 72 parking spaces and that puts a lot of pressure on an already narrow, busy street with bicyclists. Ipsen asked if it would be possible to have the design flipped so the driveway goes to Foster Road and the two story bigger building is closer to Prairie Du Chien. Freerks noted what most people want is for these driveways to be further away from major intersections and the City agrees as it is safer. Ipsen understands but stated it puts a lot of pressure on Prairie Du Chien. Miklo said they could look at a scenario where the buildings and driveway are shifted to Foster Road, but that may not be possible with the topography and staff cannot commit to a driveway onto Foster Road. Signs added he heard a willingness from the developer to do this if possible, but right now it is unknown, a lot depends on how Foster Road is developed. Ipsen asked if the units in the development will be apartments or home-owned condominiums. Miklo stated that the City is not able to control that with zoning. Ipsen added that in talking with several other residents there is a concern with the speeding on Prairie Du Chien, it is a problem. She also asked if it is possible to hold off on the development of this application until it is seen what the traffic patterns will be once Foster Road is complete. Freerks stated that is not a fair request to the developer. Currently there are 12 units on this property (mobile homes) and this development will only be adding 12 more units (total of 24 or so apartments). Signs added that there is some urgency for this development because the current owner has concern regarding their sewer collapsing. Ipsen understands and noted she has also lived in trailer parks and understands the concerns. However, she is wondering if a traffic survey can be done she feels it would be beneficial. Bob Guyer (1529 Prairie Du Chien Road) asked if there are plans for a traffic light at the intersection of Foster Road and Prairie Du Chien. Miklo replied there are no plans for a traffic light at this time. Walz added there has to be a certain amount of traffic before a traffic light is warranted but once it reaches that threshold they would contemplate a light. Guyer said having one would help to slow down the traffic on Prairie Du Chien Road and people on Foster Road will have a difficult time getting onto Prairie Du Chien Road, especially during prime times. Freerks acknowledged that a traffic light will likely be in the works at some point. Guyer asked how much traffic is needed to warrant a light and noted that it took 30 years to get one at the corner of Prairie Du Chien and Dodge Street. Walz stated that the traffic model that was looked at with the Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 8 of 13 extension of Foster Road showed that some traffic would be taken away from Prairie Du Chien. Guyer stated it is difficult getting out of driveways on Prairie Du Chien, it can be dangerous. He has made many complaints to the Police Department. Walz said they can make a request to put the speed trailer sign up and acknowledged it is an area that probably does experience some speeding because of the transition from rural to urban areas. Guyer reiterated his whole complaint is traffic, he understands people are going to build what they are going to build, and adding to the traffic is a concern. Marsha Anderson (1543 Prairie Du Chien Road) stated the area is already a hazard, there are 100's of bicyclists, pedestrians and children that try to go over the freeway on a path that has no area for pedestrians or bicycles. It is not a safe road and traffic on it should not be increased. There are many types of vehicles on that road, motorcycles, water craft, etc. that all speed and she can hear tires squealing, it is dangerous and they don't want more traffic there. Nancy Purington (1706 Prairie Du Chien Road) thanked the Commission for allowing her to speak and for reading her letter. When listening to the others from the neighborhood this evening she sees that she is not the only one who has observed and experienced traffic issues, so she is not going to talk about that. She is curious if this is the night where they will vote in changing it from RS-12 to RM-12. Walz explained that the Commission will provide a recommendation to be forwarded to the City Council and the City Council will make the decision. Purington stated that when reading the information in tonight's agenda packet that dealt with the first applicant, the criteria for review of a Planned Development Overlay (which Freerks noted this current application is not a Planned Development Overlay), and this current application still reflects the conceptual premises used to develop neighborhoods. The density and design of an area will be compatible and/or complimentary to adjacent development in terms of land use, building mass and scale, relative amount of open space, traffic circulation and general layout. The development will not overburden existing streets and utilities, the development will not adversely affect views, light and air, property values and privacy of neighboring properties and the combination of land uses and building types and any variation from the underlying zoning requirements will be in the public interest, in harmony with the purposes and with other building regulations of the City. Purington said these things should be thought of with any consideration of change of zoning. Freerks agreed and noted that the Commission must think of a lot of things. Purington then encourages the Commission to not change the zoning of this area, especially since they have not seen what could be done with the way it is zoned now. Even though it is a humble street, it is very consistent in the architecture, there are under five houses that were there at the early part of the 20th century and for the most part post-WWII mid-century modern little bungalows and changing that area to multi-family dwellings, that are two or three stories, are all things that will not create a welcoming entrance to the city. This is also an entrance to the city, there is a very nice development on the county side and it gets more modest as you enter town. This proposed development is a jarring change, it looks very commercial and this is not a commercial street, and it is all single family dwellings. The question that arose at the neighborhood meeting regarding a space for the people that would live in the development as well as for the neighbors to use is not necessary, all the neighbors have their own yard space. Purington reiterated that this is a jarring disruption visually to have multi-family buildings, especially two stories, everything else in the area is single story. There is an opportunity here to keep one long stretch of homes consistent, which seems to be the goal when looking at changes, to keep things compatible. Purington stated that in the first meeting they had with Nusser he did show little duplexes and the neighbors that were there preferred those, these large buildings were not preferred. It doesn't fit with the neighborhood at all, on either side of the interstate. Purington is questioning what development could be done in Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 9 of 13 this area without changing the zoning and keeping it consistent because that is one pleasant quality of that street. It is a calming area that is single-family oriented. This development will disrupt property values, it will change the feel. Curt Moore (3169 Dubuque Street NE) thanked Signs for addressing that this is two separate issues, this tonight is about rezoning, and the street issue is totally separate. He came before the Commission during the discussions of the Foster Road extension and that there would be a development on the corner with potentially a commercial building and another 100 units down the road, no one came and said anything at that discussion, and he was the only one. He can appreciate the issues the residents of Prairie Du Chien may have, he lives on Dubuque Street and he also cannot back out of his driveway, traffic gets backed up from the interstate to his place and he's a quarter of a mile away, so he understands what road conditions are. Moore reiterated that this is a zoning issue and they are bending over backwards. When Moore was at the first community meeting at the grade school for the Vintage Coops, he probably asked 50% of the questions and there were probably 50 people in the room. Everyone was all for Foster Road extension and one of the issues was what would happen to the trailer court and when could it be gotten rid of. At that meeting it was said that was not the issue of discussion, only to discuss Foster Road. Now it is time to do something about it, it's time to clean it up, time to make Iowa City better and for the Commission to look at the big picture and this application is part of it. Moore added that they are on a time schedule in terms of the sewer and water, it will not last, and they have a solution for the transition of the current residents. Moore also noted that there are other areas around this development that have been rezoned and could have apartment buildings put on them, this is just in the middle of that, but the rest of the area is not always going to be single family homes. Sara Barron (Johnson County Affordable Housing Coalition) wanted to express the Coalition's support for the continued push for relocation assistance as the City is allowing these redevelopment projects. There was some question on how that was going to come into play and it was great to hear Mr. Nusser address that tonight with the offer of relocation assistance to all the residents. The Coalition stresses the need to prioritize the impact it has on residents that are living in areas that may very well need to be redeveloped, but to keep thinking about the impact it has on those families. Hensch asked Barron how she viewed the proposed relocation proposal offered this evening. Barron said she could not speak for the residents and cannot offer a specific dollar amount but does think there are some good resources that show costs associated with relocations and if the $1000 proposed will be sufficient. She added that the yearlong period is more generous than what is normally required for relocation projects. Freerks asked what the amount was that the City Council agreed upon for the relocation of residents displaced from Dolphin Pointe. Hektoen thought $500, noting there were a couple different pots of money that were available to those residents. Laureen Ipsen (1710 Prairie Du Chien Road) noted she did get sidetracked with the traffic issues and did want to say before they change the zoning if they could see if there is an option to keep it the same zoning and what would the builders have options to do. Freerks stated that the Commission cannot require that, there is a cost involved in all these things and to ask a developer to show options for things other than what they are requesting would be a burden and something the City does not require. Freerks said someone from the City probably could say how many units could be on this property if the zoning stayed the same. Walz said Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 10 of 13 townhomes could probably be done with the current zoning, likely a dozen to 18 townhomes, but it would have to be laid out with driveways, etc., to be exact. Miklo added that the Comprehensive Plan specifically shows this area as low density multi-family versus high-density single family. Walz added at the intersection of two major streets it is not unusual to see low density multi-family. The other goal with this particular property was the idea if the trailer court went away to replace it with something that diversified it and gave opportunity for housing that might tend to be more affordable. Ipsen understands what they are saying but still feels the density will change the dynamic of Prairie Du Chien and it may not be as inviting looking depending upon how it is built, it will affect the single family dwellings in the area. She suggests leaving the zoning as is and see what a townhouse concept would look like. Bob Guyer (1529 Prairie Du Chien Road) asked if Planning and Zoning has any input or power as far as relocation benefits to the people. Freerks stated it was something the Commission talked about recently. Hektoen stated the State Code allows the City Council, and Planning and Zoning advises City Council, to impose conditions on an owner of a property that are in addition to the zoning code requirement. The conditions must meet public needs that are identified as a result of the rezoning request. In this case there is a public need because people will be displaced by this zoning and imposing a condition can mitigate the impact on the displaced persons. Guyer acknowledged then that the Commission has input. Freerks confirmed they can make a recommendation to City Council and City Council has already put a stipulation that if there are 12 or more that are being displaced relocation assistance must be included. In this case it is 9 or so, therefore under the required number, however there are other issues in this case such as low income, difficulty in moving the trailers, some are owner-occupied, some are rentals, and there are many concerns. Guyer stated that the $1000 proposed for each family would not go very far toward moving is expensive. Nancy Purinqton (1706 Prairie Du Chien Road) acknowledged that where Foster Road connects to Prairie Du Chien it will make a corner but surrounding that whole area are single family dwellings. Up the street there is a trailer court that will be reversed back to four single family lots once any change happens and that will be consistent with the neighborhood. When Purington called the City to ask about that several months ago they said it would have to be four single family lots and the dwellings would have to be consistent with the architecture on the street. Purington questions how this area is any different. Freerks reiterated that this area in the Comprehensive Plan was specified for low density multi- family so that is what the applicant is asking for. The Comprehensive Plan was discussed publicly at one time. Walz added when Foster Road is constructed there will be that remnant piece land that is left over that is not developable on its own and therefore this application property becomes the defacto corner lot. In the case of the other trailer court, it is in the middle of a neighborhood, surrounded on all sides. Miklo added that the Zoning Code does not require single family houses to be compatible or in character with the others in the neighborhood. That would only be required if it were in a historic preservation overlay. Purington said is seems strange the City would encourage dissentient in design and not harmony. Regardless the rest of the street is always going to be single family residents and will not change. Foster Road is different, it will be a different type of street, and there is an opportunity to put in a bunch of different things at once. This will disrupt the entrance to the city and the harmony of the Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 11 of 13 neighborhood. Signs stated he feels Purington is driving on a different Prairie Du Chien then he drives on because as he drives on Prairie Du Chien from Dodge Street north, consistency is not a word that would come to his mind. There is a wide variety of housing styles and lot sizes. Purington disagreed. Parsons asked to see the map of all the zonings in that area. He noted there is already RS-12 south of the application property. Miklo said the area is RS-12, the City recently approved a planned development to allow multi-family attached units in the RS-12 zone for the Vintage Co-op and adjacent properties. This application would change from RS-12 to RM-12. Freerks closed the public hearing. Hensch moved to approve REZ18-00002 an application submitted by Ross Nusser for a rezoning of approximately 1.89 acres from Planned Development Overlay/High Density Single Family (OPD/RS-12) zone to Low Density Multifamily (RM-12) zone for the property located at 1705 Prairie Du Chien Road with the following conditions: 1. Relocation assistance minimum of$1000 and nine months to find new housing. 2. Two story height limit on buildings. 3. Design review being required. 4. Outdoor amenities. 5. Cap on three-bedroom units of 30%. Parsons seconded the motion. Hensch noted that the request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, he is sensitive to traffic issues, but that is a separate issue that needs to be addressed separately. He added he is pleased with the applicant's offer for relocation assistance. Yes $1000 isn't a lot anymore, but it is enough for a rental deposit. With regards to the conditions, Freerks would like to discuss outside amenities and to make sure they are only one or two-bedroom units, no larger. Signs noted that when discussing outside amenities they discussed playground area for children but typically when thinking of one or two-bedroom units you don't think families. Miklo suggested that if a goal is to attract some families to this area, in other areas of the Code there is a restriction to 30% of three-bedroom units, so they may want to provide that flexibility. Signs feels that would add to neighborhood stability and less turnover in leases. The Commission agreed to add a condition of a limit of three-bedroom units to 30%. Freerks noted in the design review stage she likes to see the larger green space areas rather than multiple smaller green spaces hidden amongst parking spaces. Signs understands the neighborhoods passion for their area. He just sees the speeding on the street and traffic as a separate issue, but the neighborhood has every right to be concerned about it. At this point no one really knows what the Foster Road connection will do to the traffic in that area, and the neighborhood will have to be vigilant about that and come to the City with concerns. It just isn't relevant to for this development going from 12 units to potentially 24. He reiterated the public comment about no one being present to comment on the huge multi-family development proposed along Foster Road which may impact the traffic way more than this little piece will. Signs also likes the design of this proposal because it puts the smaller building facing Prairie Du Chien Planning and Zoning Commission April 5, 2018 Page 12 of 13 and puts the big building behind with a frontage on Foster Road and that helps maintain the character of smaller structures along Prairie Du Chien. Freerks agrees and likes the current layout and the distance of the bigger building from Foster Road will help minimize its size. A vote was taken and the motion carried 6-0. SUBDIVISION ITEM (SUB18-00007): Discussion of an application submitted by The City of Iowa City for a preliminary plat of Iowa City Industrial Campus, a 173-acre, 3-lot industrial subdivision with 3-outlots located at 420th Street, west of Taft Avenue. Miklo stated the annexation and rezoning of this property was approved a number of years ago. A preliminary plat was also approved at that time. However, preliminary plats are valid for two years so the plat has expired and the City is now seeking reapproval of basically the same design with a couple of changes. The original design had the area south of 420th Street broken into smaller lots and they are now proposing to leave that as one outlot for future development so it would come back before the Commission if it were to be subdivided. The plan also has an outlot that covers the wetland area. There would be three industrial lots for development with access to 420th Street. Freerks opened the public hearing. Seeing no one Freerks closed the public hearing. Signs moved to approve SUB18-00007 an application submitted by The City of Iowa City for a preliminary plat of Iowa City Industrial Campus, a 173-acre, 3-lot industrial subdivision with 3-outlots located at 420th Street, west of Taft Avenue. Theobald seconded the motion. Hensch asked if the one outlot was wetlands because of the topography. Miklo believes it is due to the topography but also a drainage way that runs through that area. A vote was taken and the motion carried 6-0. Adjournment: Hensch moved to adjourn. Parsons seconded. A vote was taken and the motion passed 6-0. From: Mark Tade, Nancy Purington April 5, 2018 To: City of Iowa City, Planning and Zoning Committee We live at 1706 Prairie du Chien Road across the street from 1705 PdC where new zoning is being reviewed. On our long driveway there are two houses and I am writing to describe long term experiences and observations regarding existing traffic patterns at this location over a 40 year period. As I mentioned at the P&Z meeting March 1, drivers increase speed a few hundred yards before the I-80 overpass as they leave town anticipating higher speed zones in the county. When we slow down to enter our driveway at 1706 Prairie du Chien Road, using turn signals well in advance, the cars behind us often pull up too close to the bumpers of our cars and also pull out to pass us on the left, which means they are in the wrong lane exactly at the 1705 driveway. This behavior increases greatly as spring and summer draws people to the river and lake. Our 1706 driveway is situated at the turning point of the angle of a curve in Prairie du Chien Road veering right and leading to the 1-80 overpass. Northbound cars behind us cannot see if cars are coming toward town, or southbound, due to the location of this curve. Cars arriving in town from the county via the overpass usually are going at least 35 mph as is the speed limit that rules most of PcD in the County, which further impedes the driver's assessment of time and space. The I-80 overpass bridge rises just high enough to interfere with one's sight of a car entering town from the opposite side of the bridge even if going 25 mph. The angle of this curve, its point of origin, the speeding up of anxious drivers, the passing of cars on a narrow street, incoming cars driving over the speed limit and the inability to see clearly very far ahead occurs simultaneously at this point. And it does not have to be rush hour for this to occur. Cars pass us as we enter our driveway from the South at 1706 with limited ability to assess incoming traffic at least once a day. With more traffic expected to enter/exit PdC from Foster Road, this event will occur with greater stress at his short span of road. If you triple the number of cars entering/exiting 1705 Prairie du Chien Road at the same time all of the above occurs, it presents a more hazardous situation. With the advent of Foster Road traffic patterns have been assessed using 'models'. There is no study or assessment based on current, real, existing traffic patterns at this location. Also, Prairie du Chien Road is narrow and not engineered for bikers. The connecting I-80 overpass is not designed for biking or pedestrians. Most of the new traffic from 1705 PdC Road will primarily need to get onto Foster Road during rush hours to go to work, the University, 1-80 and downtown for the majority of their treks. Exiting from 1705 onto Prairie du Chien Road, turning north and in a few yards turning left onto Foster Road will back up traffic in a number of ways and create a dangerous cluster of events will form a cluster of anxiety from "all of the above". Changing zoning from RS12 to RM12 does not fit this location in form or function. We would like to see what can be developed on this property without a change in zoning and in keeping with the single family or duplex design which matches all that exists on Prairie du Chien Road. Thank you all for helping to improve the City of Iowa City and our neighborhood. We are looking forward to a development that builds community, is smart in design and provides a welcoming entrance to the City that is harmonious with existing zoning compliance.

Dear Iowa City City Council, Sarah Walz, and whomever it may concern. My name is Druid Wolfe, I am an Iowa City resident of over 30 years now. I am a resident of 1705 Prairie du Chien Rd. My address has been lot 6 up until about this time last year. I now live in Lot 5. My first memory of Iowa City is moving into the DVIP shelter when I was starting elementary school. For that and many other reasons I would like to say I have a great appreciation for the people of this city for many reasons, especially giving my Mom, Sister and I a chance. I really do love so much about this city and the ever expanding surrounding atmosphere to this day,which is why I understand the changes you want to make to the plot of land I live on. Ok I guess I'll get to the point of my email. It has been recommended to me that I give City Council a little background on my personal experience in HAWKEYE Trailer Court and how the rezoning will affect me. To start I will say that I think the rezoning ideas are good and justifiable, I just wish I wasn't in the middle of it! I have lived here for about 12 years, in two different mobile homes, lot 6 and now lot 5. 1 got an opportunity to make payments towards a total of$2,500 towards lot 5 and have been living here for about 13 months now with a title. Lot 6 was just getting more and more troublesome so I bought the title to #5, which came along with along with a decent stackable washer/dryer, oven,fridge, etc. It was a good deal! It was owned by a few handy type guys before me. Literally the only thing that this trailer requires for upkeep on the inside is a 750-1000 dollar job on the bathroom floor, sink, tub, which still work but could use improvements This trailer is still very livable. I wish I knew what I now know about the underground pipes issue, otherwise I thought I had more time here. I am pretty content with the area I live in and the place I have to live in right now, as a single guy I don't need much. I don't want to get back to apartment hopping. I hated that.That is the whole reason an ex GF convinced me to move here, stability, and she knew people here. $175 a month lot rent doesn't hurt either. I will say this though. Our land owners seemed like they could give a SH$? LESS about this place after they acquired control from Pat& Pete.That was a few years ago. It's almost been like we were on our own as far as some things went. I have a cat that likes to go in and out as he pleases, he has his own little door cut in my front door. I love this location and I love Iowa City. I could've moved to San Diego, LA, or FT Lauderdale, FL and been with my Lil Sister, or my Morn, or my Big Bro, or my Lil Nieces. One thing I don't like about Iowa City is cost of living. I'd like to point out to City Council that I've never had rich parents that could pay$800 for me to have an aging one bedroom APT downtown,for example. By that I feel overall cost of living NEEDS IMPROVEMENT or you're not gonna attract the amount of people you think you are. That said, Ross Nusser offering$1000 to help me move, while helpful, isn't going to COMPENSATE for anything in relation to having to move into a ridiculously expensive apartment market. I don't have money for a house. My best options are moving my trailer(most likely to Cedar County, and I don't want to do that, West Branch isn't Iowa City), or Cedar Rapids, but I have a strong disliking for CR. Believe it or not, it costs more than $1000 to move a mobile home let alone get a different mobile home or move into an apartment in Iowa City. 1 I don't qualify for low income assistance, disability, etc. I'm a middle aged guy finally making OK money after working at the same place for 10 years. All I have is me. I fear with these obstacles in housing I have upcoming, I might not be able to make ends meet. This is the second time in my life I have asked government for a helping hand.The 1st time I asked for and was denied a furnace, while watching politicians tell me banks, auto industries, etc were "too big to fail",while I agree with that to a certain extent, isn't this country and its government built by and for"The People" I'm facing a crossroads in my life and I don't know what is going to happen in the next 9-12 months. I'm not asking for help,just reasonable compensation. Come check out my trailer sometime, I guarantee you the monetary value isn't$1000. Thanks for letting me express my thoughts to you all.

Purington Mark A. Tade 1706 Prairie du Chien Road IC IA 52245 April 25, 2018 TO: City of Iowa City, City Council RE: "NO" to Rezoning RS12 to RM12 at 1705 Prairie du Chien Road AND: THE ROAD TO RECREATION Every landowner and resident on Prairie du Chien Road opposes the rezoning of 1705 Prairie du Chien Road from RS12 to RM12. The P&Z board members behave as if the land owners and residents who are invested in the established neighborhood of Prairie du Chien Road have nothing to say of any consequence regarding this decision. It was treated as it their minds were made up before we got to the podium. In the years that I have been active in civic matters in IC, I have never seen this level coldness of manner performed by our citizen volunteers and paid commissioners. It was unexpected behavior given that most of us have lived here for decades and have valuable observations and concerns regarding change around our sensitive areas and traffic patterns. These sensitive, ecological areas should include sensitivities to the human culture, too. Are we so busy caring for our flora and fauna that we no longer think about the integral aspect of human beings in our existing neighborhoods? We are the good stewards of the sensitive areas around which this neighborhood thrives. Will the City of Iowa City do anything it can to put an apartment building on every corner? Throughout this process I have been told that placing multi-family units on every corner in the City is the goal of Neighborhood & Development Services. Is placing an apartment building on every corner lot a necessary practice to meet the goals of affordable housing? (Response please) How many new multi-family units will be built, or are in planning phases, over the next 18-24-30 months within City of Iowa City? I would like staff response. What will be the ratio of multi family units to individual homes in 36 months? (Staff response, please.) Every corner of Iowa City is becoming saturated with multi-family units. Downtown is brimming and continues to expand multi-family units. River Front and The Project are in the works. How many more multi-family units does the City think we need? The trend now is away from multi-family units and toward small houses/ duplexes/condos with small plots of personal green space for gardening. It is time to invest in this aspect of community development. Stop right now at the corner of Prairie du Chien Road and Foster Road where it meets the 1-80 overpass and let's take a good look and listen to the experience and observations of our long-time neighborhood citizens. Why would the Neighborhood & Development office and the members of Planning & Zoning rush to invade a developed neighborhood of small houses with personal green spaces just to increase density by six units? RS12 at 1705 PdC is zoned perfectly for this preferred new genre of small housing culture enthusiasts. It will be a splendid improvement in planned density. How many single family/condo/duplex units can a developer make with existing RS12 zone at 1705 PdC? (Response please.) How many multi-family units will be gleaned by changing the density? (Response please.) Why would a handful more multi-family units be worth it when we could have almost the same number of single family units with personal green spaces? There is an abundance of new, multi-family units in construction or planning phases at this time, which build upon the increased density created over the past ten years. Most of the residents of Iowa City do not feel that these buildings inspire or build community. Those units meet the need for housing the transient aspect of the Iowa City population. Prairie du Chien Road is an old, two lane road joining the county through a narrow overpass at I-80 with no lane for bikes or pedestrians. Prairie du Chien Road is the ROAD TO RECREATION for the City of Iowa City. Devonian Fossil Gorge, the Coralville Reservoir, Wood Pecker Trail, Funcrest, boat marinas, the Iowa River, Lake Macbride Field Campus, Raptor Center, sailing clubs, beaches, boat rentals, canoes, kayaks, camping, bird-watching, archery, fishing and picnics can be enjoyed via the Prairie du Chien Road at the narrow, 1-80 overpass. Cars, RVs, trucks, boats & trailers, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians and runners have a difficult time managing now. Prairie du Chien needs to match the specifications and quality of Foster Road just to meet its current, diverse load. Lands along new Foster Road are recently and expertly zoned RS12. Except for 1705 PdC, trailer park, old Prairie du Chien Road is zoned RS5. On February 13, 2018 Ross Nusser, Broker for Urban Acres Real Estate, contacted property owners with a Notice of Good Neighbor Meeting held February 21st. He presented discussion sheets with photographs of small homes, duplex/condo units and one photo of an apartment building. The neighbors supported small home condo/duplex units and rejected the multi- family concept. This is an established neighborhood of single family small homes and duplexes, the current, popular, desired, housing trend. During this discussion Mr. Nusser stated that these examples were not real. We said that we understood that they were ideas for the discussion. March 1 was the first P&7 meeting. Ross Nusser did not show the photographs that he showed neighbors and was more invested in the displacement of the current occupants. He was directed to bring something to the next P&Z meeting that the commission could see and discuss. Between this meeting and the April 5th meeting the City of Iowa City purchased the home next to 1705 on the north side, which will be the future "corner" of Foster Road and Prairie du Chien Road. April 5, Ross Nusser showed photographs of previously built, multi-family units from other locations. Citizens and neighbors objected unanimously and gave many factual details regarding those objections. P&Z members were dismissive of all citizen input and voted unanimously to change the zoning. We were shocked. Please come out and take a look at what resources exist on the grounds of this disputed area before looking at a map and thinking you are equipped to vote for change. Contact me and I will take you around. Prairie du Chien Road has sensitive areas on both sides. Please take a look at the whole picture before you destroy an established, neighborhood culture that is trending once again: small, single-family/condo/duplex dwellings with personal green space. Project Green will be proud. These are civic goals as well. PROTEST OF REZONING / TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL ter ›TaVir ' i IOWA CITY,IOWA • -143.

Once found to be eligible under the URA, such a displaced person can receive a range of benefits, or compensation types. Importantly, instead of merely "market value," many property owners can obtain "replacement value" for their original property.0 Arguably,this goes above and beyond the Supreme Court's general standard that, under the Fifth Amendment's Just Compensation Clause, an owner need only be paid "fair market value" for their property.'`'' The URA endeavors to achieve this replacement value through providing the displacees with actual moving expenses, including mortgage and closing costs.
