March 1, 1938, Honorable Mayor and City Council: Gentlemen: With reference to at• tached petition signed by Mettel Realty and Investment Co. acting ~r!~ ll'I',I 'I';' ~~',,' j ',:~~ 40 Regular Session, March 7th, 1938 as agent for Roy Curtis, Peter Greiner and Louis Knocker, owners of certain property on Cherry and Avoca Streets, in Finley Addition, said petition having been referred to the Planning and Zoning, Com- mission by City Council on Febru- ary 7th, the Planning and Zoning Commission begs to recommend to City Council vacation of the alley requested. The diagonal course of the alley thrpugh the block forma irregular shaped lpts which are npt entirely suitable for building pur- poses. The. Commission recommend fur, then that the vacation of aa}d alley be conditioned upon payment of, a price which City Council may deem Ceas9naple, null upon proper ar- rangemeuts being made, sp that all abuttin& property owners are treat- ed fairly in the distribution of the ground thus acquired. Respectfully submitted, Yours truly, R, V, McKAY, Sec'Y Dubuque Planning and Zon- ing Commission, 141r, A, A, Rhomberg, City Manager,, Dubuque, Iowa. Dear Sir: The Planning and Zoning Commission met February 23rd, and asked me to report to yeti that in addition to their, recom- mendation, made to the City Coun~ cil on the petition of the Mettel Realty and Investment Company, they Peel that the offer of $50.00 far the vacation of the alley men- tioned iu the request is not ade• quote. The vacating of this alley will mean that all adjacent property holders can make three saleable lots out of four parcels of land which are, at present, not in eon• formitY with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. They feel this is the logical. step to take, but are of the opinion that. the area of the vacated alley is worth more than $5.0,00• They also feel that the cost of printing and of trans• ferring the title will amount to almost $50.00, and. the least that shpuld be asked would be $50.00, plus the necessary Cost of vacating and transferring. An investigation of the sewers shows a 20 inch storm sewer in the alley which they wish vacated, A plat and profile of this storm sewer is attached, and' I would re- commend that.if this alley is va- cated by the City Council that an easement shpuld be obtained for. a permanent right of .way of this storm sewer. It might be well to mention that the depth of this storm sewer varies, from four feet to six feet and might interfere with the construction on the lots involved. A private sanitary sewer is also shown on the attached plat which was constructed by the owner of Lot 166, Finley's Addition, The profile of this sewer is also shown, and it would be well to me-anon to the prospective purchaser that this is a private sewer, and ar• rangements would have to be made with the owner before using it for any future Gonstruetipa,, RespectfuDY subzr}itted, H,.

March 18, 1938. To the City Manager and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa, Gentlemen; I wish to bring to your attention the sublect of contagious disease control. The necessity of eliminat- ing the V. N. A. has produced a problem of considerable import- ance to your Health Department, for example, if conditions similar to January and February of 1936 were to occur today there would be practically a complete break down in our work. To be specific, 3333 of the 6,756 cases reported in 1935 were iu January and February. At that time we had a staff of 13 Visit- ing Nurses, 4 school nurses, 3 WPA nurses, 4 WPA clerks, besides the Health Director and the Health De• partment stenographer. At the present time, unless extra help was to be employed during a severe epidemic, we would have only 4 School nurses, 1 WPA clerk, besides the Health Director and stenographer to cope with the situa~ tion. The amount of clerical wont necessary on each case of commun- icable disease fa considerable. Usu- a]]y the gaae is reported by tele- phone to the Health Department; then the clerk reports the case by phone to the V. N. A. office, The visiting nurse then visits the home and obtains a complete history of the case. When the card is returned to our office, the clerk sends a notice of gparantine to the school anti makes' a coht~lete record in bur books. She then makes out a his- tory card`to lib sent to the State Department of Health. At the end Of the week she makes out curds for the State Health Depart- ment and U. S. Public Health Ser• vice, when the case is dismissed she sends a notice of release to the school, We estimate that each case means from 3 to 4 telehpone calls. In 1985 it vas necessary to have an extra phone installed. These details are brought to youx atten• tion to illustrate' how it would be impossible for either the office help ot• the 'school nurses to do the neeessary work as in 1935. As a matter of fact, if the nurses had to d0 all the placarding ttiey would have very little time to spend in the schools inspecting children for contagious disease; Another very important problem Confronting us is the fact that the nurses orb only employed for 10 months, and unless proper provi- sion is made we would have no nurses on duty during July and August, It is quite true that I have cited conditions which fortunately do not exist every year. However, this city will probably experience an epidemic of Measles this year, the last ono occurring in 1935. Measles usually occur in 3 year cycles. I therefore recommend for your consideration that the $1,200.00 formerly paid to th0 V. N. A. be appropriated for Health Depart- ment purposes to be aced in em• ploying extra help either clerical or nursing when the need arises, Special Session, March 22nd, 1938 55 I might also add that in times of severe epidemics that even this amount may not be sufficient, Respectfully submitted, W, J. Connell, Director of Health, Councilman Kane moved that the communication of W. J. Connell, Director. of Health, be made a mat• ter of record. Seconded by Coun• cilman Clark, Carried by the fol• lowing vote; Yeas-Mayor Chalmers, Council• men Bennett, Clat•k, Kane, Murphy. Nays-None.
