She claims she fell on a dangerous depression in the street that was covered with ice and snow, and fell to the ground. that said dangerous condition existed for such a length of time that the City had notice of said depression and should have remedied same; that her actual damages were $1,306.00. I have had numerous consultations with her counsel and have prepared for a trial of this lawsuit, and now her attorneys have agreed to settle this case if we will pay $400.00. I am of the opinion this case should be set- tled for $400.00. I recommend that a warrant be issued, payable to Kenline, Roedell, Hoffmann, and Reynolds, Attorneys for Helen Wiedner in amount of $400.00, and that the same be delivered upon delivery to the City of a release executed by Helen Wied- ner, and upon a dismissal of said case.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: Although it was the hope of the Building Code Committee appoint- ed by the Mayor, Mr. Albert Whar- ton, to have a Building C o de ready for the Council's adoption before the end of its term, this Committee still has a few months' work left. The proposed Building Code will have five main subdi- visions, four of which have been approved by the Building Code Committee. The fifth subdivision should be reviewed and approved by the Committee in another month and then the work of preparing the revised code may be started, after which the code will be sub- mitted to the Council. The Building Code Committee was divided so that each member worked on one of the five prin- cipal committees as follows: Administrative Delos Hodges — C. I. Krajewski Orlin Conlon Chris Voelker Structural Construction Requirements Carl Bartels — Chairman W. P. Asmussen R. J. Gallagher Frank Hying Fire Protection Requirements Ray Berquist — Chairman Joe Kass Wm. Mueller L. C. Norton Tom Hickson — Associate Health Sanitation Requiremer Ed Kuehnle Oscar Lundgren — Chairman Dan O'Leary Safety Requirements Howard Geisler — Chairman Fergus Gallagher Al Pape There has been a total of twenty meetings of the general Building Code Committee and a total of twenty meetings of the subcom- mittees, totalling 600 man - hours. The City Council has felt the need of a modern building code for the City of Dubuque and has had Building Code Committees working at various times during the past ten years. In 1941 the Building Code Com- mittee headed by Art Geisler was appointed and prepared a modern building code which was submitted to the Council in November of 1942. However, at that time the Iowa State Engineering Society was agitating for a uniform State Building Code. Since this type of code is better than a municipal code as a rule, it was abandoned. In the meantime, the Iowa En- gineering Society has developed a uniform State Code which has failed to become a statute leaving Dubuque and other cities without modem building codes. This Du- buque Building Code Committee is developing its Code upon the proposed State Uniform Building Code so that when it is passed and put on the statute books of the State of Iowa, there will be no change for Dubuquers. Respectfully submitted, Paul Rossiter, Chairman Dubuque Building Code Com- mittee Councilman Van Duelman moved that the communication be re- ceived and made a matter o£ record. Seconded by Councilman Thompson, Carried by the follow- ing vote; Yeas -- Mayor Wharton, Coun- cilmen Thompson Van Duelmap_, Welu. Nays — None. Absent — Councilman Russo. 23 March 1950. Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Dubuque, Iowa Gentlemen: With reference to the claim of Fred Pickle for damages sustained on or about January 24th, 1950 in a fall after slipping on an accum- ulation of ice on the sidewalk on the south side of 5th Street near the corner of Main Street, said claimant slipped on ice on the said sidewalk, fell to the sidewalk, z.a Jig Aim v i 130 Special Session, March 28th, 1950 receiving injuries which required him to secure the services of a physician and hospital services, and required that he remain away from his work. That he sustained actual damages in the amount of some- where in the neighborhood of $300.00. His attorney has agreed to a settlement of $141.70. I re- commend that this claim be settled upon that basis, and that a war- rant be issued payable to Francis Becker, Attorney for Fred Pickle and delivered upon delivery to the City of a release properly exe- cuted by Claimant. Yours truly, John J. Kintzinger City Solicitor.

Seconded by Councilman Thompson. Carried by the following vote: Yeas — Mayor Wharton, Coun- cilmen Thompson, Van Duelman, Welu. Nays — None. Absent — Councilman Russo. March 28, 1950.
