To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: it is requested that the Council take the necessary steps to change the designation of Malden Street, which exteuds from ttte Intersec• tion of Brunswick and I,ink Streets 20 Adjourned Regular Session. January 3. 1950 southerly to Twenty Seventh St. to Brunswick Street for the follow. Ink reasons: (1) Malden Street, as platted, is a direct extension of Brunswick Street. (2) The comparative approxi- mate lengths of the two streets are Brunswick 750 feet and Malden 250 feet. (3) The two names result from the fact that the streets lie in dif- ferent subdivisions of t he City: namely, Brunswick Street In Bel. mont Addition and Malden Street In Westview Subdivision. (4) At the present time there is only one dwelling fronting on Mal. den Street and construction has begun on a second. (6) The change of name for the shorter Malden Street to Bruns. wick Street will eliminate consider- able confusion for the parties locat- ed on Malden Street. Respectfully submitted, R. J. Gallagher, City Engineer. Councilman Van Duelman moved that the communication of City En- gineer Gallagher be referred to the City Solicitor to prepare the prop. er proceedings.

From Eagle Point I'ark a 16" feeder line for the intermediate system is recom- mended to extend to the vicinity of Davis and Windsor Streets. Sev- eral other minor reinforcing mains are recommended. The various locations for new feeder mains, elevated tanks and ground surface reservoir are ten- tative and subject to final deter- mination on the basis of contract plans and specifications. All of the proposed construction is shown on a preliminary plan attached hereto. It is our recommendation that the proposed construction program be undertaken as a multi -stage pro- gram and an estimate of cost on that basis is also attached hereto. We believe this estimate of cost is sufficiently accurate for budget purposes and we are confident that when Stage No. 1 has been carried out, at a cost of $430,000.00, inadequate pressures will dis- appear as far as present water demands are concerned. We believe Stage No. 1 should be carried out as soon as possible. A timetable for carrying; out Stag- es Nos. 2 and 3 can be worked out and possibly these two stages can be expanded into more than two stages, based on financing plans and the rate at which water de. mand increases, particularly in the westerly area of the City. We believe that Stage No. 2 should be carried out within five (5) years in order to retain, satin factorily, ratings by the National Board of Fire Underwriters an'' in order to maintain adequate pressures in the Northeasterly dis trict at all times. In connection with your water revenue bond financing, you will be required to establish rates that will provide annual surpluses. It is our recommendations that you be exceedingly careful to arrange the phraseology of the bond ord- inance in such a way that accumu- lated surpluses may be used for construction work included in the attached multi -stage construc- tion program. It is also our definite recommen. dation in this connection that you insist that the bond ordinance be prepared as an open-cnd bond ord- inance and that there be excluded from such ordinance any oppres- sively rigorous restrictions regard- ing the issuance, in the future, of additional water revenue bonds that may be needed to carry out future stages of the multi -stage construction program. The anwunt of water main ex- tensions to be undertaken in any future year, naturally, will be We have had much recent ex- perience on similar projects which indicates to its the necessity of these last mentioned maneuvers for your financing plans. Also, %ve feel that, on the matter of surpluses, there is no need to establish rates which will provide a surplus for fixed charges in ex- cess of 10 percent of those annual requirements. A slight increase in interest rate, in our opinion, is preferable to onerous restric tions in the bond ordinance per- taining to excessive provisions for operating surpluses and for ex- cessive restrictions regarding the issuance a new bonds in the future.

February 9, 1950 The Honorable Mayor and City Council of the City of Dubuque Gentlemen: As a citizen, taxpayer and water user of the City of Dubuque, I have followed the developments with reference to the soft water controversy with a great deal of interest. Many people have ex- pressed their opinions pro and con on this subject and I am, therefore, taking the liberty of placing before your Honorable Body my view- point. It is my understanding that our present water is rated at 20 grains hardness and that the new treat- ment plant would reduce this to 5 grains of hardness per gallon, This means that we will not have abso- lutely soft water and that, there- fore, there will still remain a need for home softeners. If the soften- ing plant is installed, users of water in the City of Dubuque who have home softeners will continue to use them and have the expense of operating them in addition to the increased water rates made necessary because of the construc- tion of the softening plant. Dubuque is fortunate in having a water supply from deep wells which is of excellent taste. Noth- ing should be done to risk losing this outstanding asset for o u r community. It is a well known fact that the substances in water which make it hard are also the substances which give the water its taste. By softening water we remove these substances and the inevitable consequence is that a change is made in the taste of the water. If all these substances which make water hard are re- moved, water is very flat and is of disagreeable taste. The best that can be said by the propon- ents for the softening plant is that the change in the taste of the water will be slight or hardly no- ticeable if the water is chilled. This means that the taste of the water will be changed. I, for one, want to continue to have available water of the fine taste that is presently available and I hope I can always enjoy this privilege. Partially softening all the water that goes into our water distribu- tion system is an economic waste for only about 20 percent of that water is actually used in cleansing purposes, that is, for personal washing and bathing. laundry pur- posrs, etc. The other 80 percent of the water is used for non -cleans- ing purposes, such as flushing toilets, sprinkling lawns, washing cars, fighting fires, etc. There are many detergents on the market to. day which soften the water and, therefore, there is no real need to soften all the water in our distribution system. There are many other improve- ments needed in our water system which are more important and es. sential for the safety and welfare of the community than the installa- tion of a softening plant. In the 38 Adjourned Special Session, February 9th, 1950 last available report of the Superin- softening plant and the other im. tendent of the City Water Depart- provements on this basts would be ment which is for the period of $1,450.00 which is $332,10000 April 1, 1948 to March 3 1,1949, more than the estimated casts set there is listed the improvements forth by the Water Superintendent which should be made in our wat- in his latest annual report. er distribution system together In the last annual report of the with estimated costs of each.

Its popula- man, Welu. tion has increased ten to fifteen thousand in the last ten years and will likely increase in a similar proportion in the next ten years. Studies should be undertaken at once so that the people of this community may be properly ad- vised of the adequacy of their source of water supply to take care of the increasing demand for water that comes with a growing community. There is no need for Dubuque to some day wake up with a water shortage which is the present plight of our friends in Nes York City. It is very likely that with our continuing growth it will be necessary to sink new wells. These wells have to be sunk to considerable depth and are ex- pensive. Before we commit our- selves to this expensive conveni- ence of a water softening plant, we ought to be sure that our source of water supply is adequate or some day we may wake up and find that we have a shortage of water and lack of the financial means to finance the construction of new wells due to the fact of our outstanding bond issue made nec- essary for the water softening plant and other improvements. It is my considered opinion that good judgment dictates that the City of Dubuque should make all reasonable improvements in its wa- ter system as recommended by its Superintendent of Water Depart- ment except the one for construct- ing a water softening plant.

To the Honorable Mayor an] Members of the City of Dubuque, Iowa: February A, 1950 The undersigned, Sisters of St. Francis of Dubuque County, Iowa, owners and operators of Xavier Ilospital, Immaculate Conception Academy, Mount St. Francis and St. Francis Home, all located in the north end of the City of Dubuque, hereby object to the adoption of the proposed plan for the erection, installation and operation of a soft water plant in connection with the municipal water department of the City if such improvements and addi- tions to the existing water system which are so urgently needed to provide proper pressure in the vicinities of the properties owned by the undersigned. As has been discussed with the Council previously, the undersign- ed has no objection to the propos- ed soft water plant as such but again wishes to call the attention of the Council to the critical and urgent need for improvements to the existing system which will in- crease the pressure available at and near the properties of the under- signed. The majority of the patients in Xavier Ilospital, the students at immaculate Conception Academy and the aged at St. Francis llome, and their respective families, are citizens and taxpayers of the City of Dubuque and, as such, en. 40 Adjourned Special Session, February 9th, 1950 titled to reasonable protection from the hazards of fire. A: has been pointed out previously the existing water system does not make available a sufficient quan• tity of water or sufficient pres- sure to effectively combat any fire that might develop in any of the institutions listed. In the opinion of the undersign- ed, before disbursing large sums of money for refinements in the existing water system, such as the erection and operation of a water softening plant, the existing sys- tem should he extended and im- proved to reasonably meet the health and safety requirements of the City. The desirability of such an improvement has been recom- mended by the Superintendent of the Water Department in his an- nual reports to the Council and it is felt that the health and safety of the citizens of the community should take precedence over the refinement of the supply of water by the installation of a soft water plant. For the reasons enumerated, the undersigned therefore respectfully request that before sums are ex- pended for a water softening fa- cility, the existing water system should be Improved to meet the requirements indicated and the necessary steps promptly taken and expenditures made to guarantee and insure an adequate supply of water to effectively meet the safe. ty requirements of the property of the undersigned and other prop- erty in its vicinity, and to main- tain the health standards in area involved.

To the Honorable Mayor and City council. Ixtbuque. 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 Co de ready for the Council's adoption before the end of its term, this Committee still has a few months' work left. The proposed Buildintz 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, aftor which the code will be sub. witted to the Council. The Building Code Committee was divided w) that each member worked on one of the five prin- cipal cYmuntttees as follows Administrative Committee Meloy Hodges --- Chairman C. 1.

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 modern building codes. This Du- buque Building Code Committee is developing its Code upon t h e 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 r)ubuque Building Code Com- mittee councilman Van Duelman moved that the communication be re- ceived and made a matter of record.

April 20, 1950 To the Honourable Mayor and City Council of the City of Dubuque Gentlemen: At the meeting of the City Coun- cil held on Monday, April 17, the petition of Albert Sodawasser, et at, with reference to automobiles being stored upon a vacant lot in the 2100 block of Elm street by Boyes Wrecking and Towing Serv- ices, was referred to the City Attorney and Building Commis- sioner for investigation and re- port. We have made an investigation of this matter and our opinion with reference thereto follows: We find that the area complain- ed of lies within the heavy indus- trial zoning area of the City of Dubuque. There are nine restric- tions placed upon uses of property located within that area for which special permission must be granted prior to use. We feel that at the present time at least, no business is being conducted upon said prem- ",,.. Special Session, April 24th, 1950 195 ises which would be prohibited by the provisions of the zoning ordin- ance as it applies to heavy indus- trial areas. We feel further from an investigation of the premises that they are not now being used as a junk yard but rather as a storage place for wrecked automo- biles and in our opinion the same is a conforming use under the zoning ordinance.

Gentlemen Regarding the petition of the engineers of the Water Depart- ment, asking for a forty hour work week which was referred to me for investigation and report. I was talking with the superintendents of water at a school held in Iowa City last week and find that most Pumping station engineers work at least forty-eight hours a week. At Cedar Rapids they are on duty only forty-two hours and work eight hours out of every thirty- two hours with no extra day off. This schedule would not be satis- factory in Dubuque as we operate three stations instead of two. It has been our policy in the past to give the men with seniority the best shifts as they have worked nights for years to obtain a day shift. All the other employees work forty-four hours a week and are subject to call when off duty and do not receive any extra compensa- tion as they are paid on a monthly basis. This is especially true of maintenance crews who put in as much as 100 hours a year. These emergencies usually occur on Sun- days, holidays and nights. Figured on an hourly basis, ex. cluding extra time, the engineers receive more per hour than any other employees except the five division heads and myself. These engineers are skilled and faithful men but other employees of the department are equally qualified for their duties. If and when short. er working hours are proposed, full consideration should be given to the entire personnel and not to one group at the pumping station. Respectfully submitted, J. J. Hail, Superintendent City of Dubuque Water Department. Councilman Russo moved that the recommendation of Water Sup- erintendent Hail be approved. Sec. onded by Mayor Welu.

At the time in the car with him were his three minor children. A short time thereafter this condition was taken care of; he could not observe the condition of the street until he was upon it, and therefore sustained the dam- ages. 1 recommend that his claim be paid in the amount of $23.23, that a warrant be issued payable to his order for said amount and delivered to him upon delivery by him to the City of a release proper- ly executed.

Gentlemen: In compliance with your instruc. tions, the writer has made an in- vestigation of subject street width and respectfully submits the fol- lowing report: (1) A thorough search of the Council Records from 1855, the year that the original plat of Eagle Point or ham's Addition was filed for record, up to the present time reveals no Council action with re. gard to the established width of Prescott Street. Prescott Street has successfully been known as Bluff Street, as originally platted, Adams Avenue or Street, this change was made sometime be. tween 1855 and 1888, and finally Prescott Street, by ordinance dated April 15, 1921. (2) The boundaries of the original Plat of Eagle Point or Ham's Addn. as filed for record February 24, 1855, do not include the Prescott Street blocks. (3) The plat of addition to Eagle Point or Ham's Addition filed Feb. ruary 23, 1859 dues include Pres. Cott Street; however, street and alley widths are not noted. All streets as drawn on this plat scale 64 feet in width with the excep. tion of Prescott Street, which scales 50 feet in width. (4) A plat prepared from a sur. vcy made for the purpose of sub dividing lot 575 of Ham's Addn. by M. Tsebirgi, Jr., civil engineer and surveyor, files November 26 1875, shows a width dimension of 50 feet for Prescott Street abut. ting said lot. (5) A plat of Eagle Point or Ham's Addn. filed February 11, 1887, upon which appears only the surveyor's certificate, there being no dedication or acknowledgment, shows width dimensions on all streets within the addition of 64 feet, including the southerly end of Prescott Street. Again, how. ever, the scale to which the plat is drawn indicates a width of 50 feet on Prescott and 64 feet on all other streets. (6) A plat prepared from a sur- vey made for the purpose of creat. ing L. Cota's Place by Paul I1g, surveyor, filed December 29, 1920, gives the dimenFion for the width of Prescott Street as 50 feet. (7) A map of Eagle Point or Ham's Addn. bearing the date 1854, a copy of which is attached, pre- pared for the purpose of offering the property within the Addition for sale by Walker and Rhomberg, real estate agents, shows the width of Prescott (ther- Bluff) Street as 50 feet. This map appears to be a composite of the plats described under numbers (2) and (3) above. It is highly probable that the property abutting Prescott Street was purchased by individual buy- ers during this period with the understanding that the street width was 50 feet as shown on this map. (8) A search of the files and records in the City Engineer's of. fice produced no additional perti- nent information on the subject. It is the conclusion of the writer, therefore, after careful considera- tion of the above factual evidence, that the width of Prescott Street was intended to be 50 feet from the time of Its first appearance on a plat in 1859 notwithstanding the fact that all other streets in the addition are 64 feet and also the appearance, in the one instance noted, of the figure 64 on Prescott Street. Respectfully submitted, R. J. Gallagher, City Engineer Councilman Russo moved that the communication of City Engi- neer Gallagher be received and made a matter of record. Second- ed by Mayor Welu.

May 12, 1950 To the Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Dubuque, Iowa Gentlemen: Al the May i session of the City Council, the petition of Lloyd Bur. kart requesting extension of water mains along Highway 20 was re- ferred to me for investigation and report. This would necessitate the laying of approximately 1190 feet of 12" water main. The last 900 feet of this distance would be in front of Mr. Burkart's lots. The total cost of this project would he approxi- mately $7,140.00 which would be quite expensive for five new cus- tomers. Permission and necessary arrangements will have to be made with the Highway Commission when this water main is laid. I recommend that this applica- tion be given consideration on our next year's program as it is part of Stage Three as submitted by our consulting engineers. Respectfully submitted, J. J.

Gentlemen: The purpose of this report is to acquaint the Council with the present status of voting Precincts and permanent registra- tion matters. The City was divided into fifteen precincts in September, 1924 in- stead of the five wards that had previously been the voting divi- sions. This came about as a result W Special Session, May 15th, 1950 241 of an extensive survey and report by a committee composed of Louis Murphy, Henry J. Kaep, J. L. Meyer and C. B. Scherr. This committee drew the boundaries for the fif- teen precincts with a view to hay. Ing approximately 1,500 potential voters in each. Several years later in 1929 per- manent registration was establish- ed in the City. With the popula. tion growth that Dubuque has ex- perienced in recent years, a defin. ite need exists for review of the boundaries of precincts. This popu- lation growth has not occurred uni- formly in the various precincts with result that the situation no longer prevails of having anywhere near equal numbers of voters in the various precincts. In addition, there are now up- wards of 23,000 registered voters whereas in 1929 the number was somewhat more than half of this amount. It is our belief that the handling of voting registration has now reached such proportion that an assistant deputy should be em- ployed to handle it. In view of the above, it is our recommendation that the Council take steps to undertake a compre. hensive study of proper voting pre- cincts and to provide for the em- ployment of a duly authorized Clerk of Registration. Respectfully submitted, A. A. RHOMBERG, City Manager J. J. SHEA, City Clerk Councilman Wynes moved that the recommendation of City Man- ager Rhomberg and City Clerk Shea be approved and the City clerk instructed to confer with the Board of Supervisors with refer- ence to the employment of a duly authorized Clerk of Registration.

WATER DEPARTMENT City of Dubuque, Iowa May 8, 1950 To the honorable Mayor and City Council, City of Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: Pursuant to your request for information concerning the financ- ing of the Water Department and its improvements, the attached data sheets are submitted. It is evident that the present water rates cannot support an accelerated improve- ments program. The proposed ad- ditions and construction items rec- ommended by the consulting engi- neers and referred to as Stage One are needed improvements that should be provided within the next five years. The summary shows the present position of Water Works' finances and its position at the end of the five year period under three proposals. Proposal No. 1 is on the basis of a $200,000.00 bond issue to be re. tired within the period with an ap. Proximate 11% increase in water rates. Proposal No. 2 is based on a $200,000.00 bond issue retired with. in the period with an approximate 15% increase in rates. Proposal No. 3 is based on the issuance of $150,000.00 bonds to be retired within the period with an approximate 21 percent increase In water rates. It is to be noted that under Pro. posal No. 1, the end of the five years would see the department with a rather depleted inventory and having $70,000.00 less cash on hand than at present while, Pro. posal No. 2 would leave the de. partment with a depleted inventory but with a better cash position, be- ing only $24,000.00 less than at present. Proposal No. 3 would leave the department at the end of the five year period with a cash balance piva the value ui its in. ventory at about 526,000.00 less than the present status of the cash and plus the value of materials on hand. It is recommended that the Coun- cil consider an increase in water rates and make such increased rates effective in the near future since part of the improvements embraced in Stage One are already in progress and the need for the funds to finance such work is rapidly developing. Respectfully submitted, CITY WATER DEPARTMENT J. J. HAIL, Superintendent Councilman Wynes moved that Proposal No. 3 showing an approxi- mate 21% increase in water rates be adopted and the City Manager and City Solicitor instructed to prepare an ordinance covering the same, said increase in water rates to cover meter readings on and after July 1st, 1050.

In Golf View Really Co. vs. Souix City, 269 NW 456, our Su- preme Court, in passing upon the question as to whether property acquired by a City for a golf course was properly acquired under the City's park board powers, said: "A park is a pleasure ground for the recreation of the public to promote its health and enjoyment. A public golf course is for the same purpose. Parks are used for pub- lic recreation by indulgence in ten- nis, pitching horseshoes, croquet, baseball, kitten ball, golf, walking, horseback riding, picnicing, and general outdoor exercise, and oth- er recreations. If ground be ac- quired for these purposes, it may be acquired for a part of them. It follows that the city has author- ity, under its charter, to acquire and maintain a public golf course."

Office of the President Dear Mayor Welu: You may perhaps know that oral argument in the Parks Investigation Case in which the City of Dubuque has an important interest was held in Washington on May 18 and 19. While I could take no direct part in the oral argument, I attended this proceedings before the Civil Aeronautics Board from the begin- ning to the end because my com- pany also has a vital interest in the outcome. I have sat through many oral arguments but never before have I witnessed a more sincere or more concerted effort Gn the part of a large number of communities to fight so diligently for the type of air transportation service to which they are fully entitled. Because I feel that you are also vitally in- terested in the outcome of this case, I want you to know that Mr. John J. Kintzinger, your City Attorney who represented Dubuque delivered an outstanding argument with such constructiveness and forcefulness that I feel very sure the members of the CAB were duly impressed by it. He really laid Dubuque's case on the line in no uncertain terms and there should be no doubt in the mind of any member of the Board that the people of Dubuque are very un- happy and justly so because of the delays experienced in furnishing P_ Regular Session, June 5th, 1950 275 air transportation service to your City. We hope, of course, that Mid. Continent will be certificated to serve Dubuque but whether or not we are so authorized, I am very proud and gratified to have been associated with Mr. Kintzinger in the effort put forth to acquire prop• er service for Dubuque and the other communities concerned. With kind personal regards, I am Sincerely yours, J. W. Miller President. Mayor Welu moved that the com- munication be received and made a matter of record. Seconded by Councilman Kolb.

May 27, 1950. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: The various departments of the City of Dubuque interested in the well-being, wholesome living and protection of the residents of the City of Dubuque take this means to notify your Honorable Body of a condition that has been tolerated and allowed to exist in the city for the past several years, namely, trailers and the parking of same. We have trailers parked on the rear of lots, around filling stations, colleges and some vacant lots. Parked trailers can be found in all sections of the city. All of these are using the facilities pro. vided for the use of people in houses on the same lot or the rest rooms provided for the customers in filling stations. Water is car- ried to the trailer and waste water carried back. Many are provided with wires strung from the house to trailer. In general, the occu- pants of such makeshift living quar- ters are living under substandard conditions as compared with the present day conception of sanitary and convenient housing. We explain this in detail because we were of the opinion some years past that modern trailer courts would be built and the people would take advantage of clean, con- venient living in a modern court. This assumptidn has proved to be a decided failure. Trailer courts will not be built or used as long as no regulation is established re- garding trailer parking, House trailers, used for tempor- ary relief housing for people who, for various reasons, are unable to acquire conventional type living quarters, are not objectionable pro- viding proper regulations can be formulated and enforced insuring protection to both the occupants of trailers and adjacent property. It now seems that the way to correct this condition and give the people that erect new modern homes the protection to which they are entitled is the adoption of a Trailer Ordinance. Several years ago a good Trailer Ordinance was considered by the City Council and passed first reading but was not finally adopted. Many reasons that caused the failure to adopt this ordinance at that time are not now present. We are deluged with calls from people who have a nice house and pleasant surroundings when some one moves in and parks a trailer within their view, thus distracting from an ordinary ac- cepted pattern which allows the use of a lot for more than one dwelling. 278 Regular Session, .lune 5th, 1950 We, therefore, ask that the Trail- er Ordinance be adopted forthwith and provision be made that no trail. er be parked except in an accepted court and if a trailer be moved it must be in a court and the final elimination of all trailers from present locations be accomplished In a reasonable period of time. We believe this to be a necessity and offer any assistance we can give to the accomplishment of this request. Respectfully submitted, THOS. C. HICKSON Fire Chief ALBERT J. ENTRINGER Health Director ALLAN J. KLEIN Sanitary Inspector DONALD J. BANDY Building Commissioner REWEN C. NORTON Electrical Inspector DAN J.

June 5, 1980 To the Honourable Mayor and City Council CIty of Dubuque Gentlemen: A communication addressed to the Mayor and the bty Council concerning dogs running at large was referred to the City Solicitor for investigation and report. After Investigation we find two or- dinances with reference to dogs, the first of which is entitled ordin- ance No. 72A, passed in 1921 and the second ordinance was passed, adopted and approved in 1933. The substance of such ordinances pro• vided for the licensing of dogs within the City of Dubuque; the amount to be paid for such license; a provision for the impounding of unlicensed dogs; the provision pro. hibiting vicious dogs running at large and the ultimate disposal of dangerous and vicious dogs allowed to run at large whether the same are licensed or not. A review of these two ordinances discloses that dogs may run at large if licensed, if they are not dangerous or vicious to the extent that they constitute a nuisance. A further provision of the ordin- ances provides for the impounding by any officer or person of any dog running at large which is un- licensed. Section 368.8 (Paragraph 4 of the 1946 Code contains the further provision of the licensing and regu- lation of dogs by the City.) Respectfully submitted, John J. Kintzinger City Solicitor By R. M.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Dubuque, Iowa Gentlemen: With reference to the claim of Michael J. McGovern for $5,000.00 on account of personal injuries sus- tained by him on or about January 28th, 1950, which has been referred to me for investigation and report, on January 28th, 1950, claimant while walking west on 2nd Street in the City of Dubuque fell on the sidewalk at the southwest corner of 2nd and Main Streets, approximate- ly fifteen feet from the corner, at which time he sustained a fracture to his right wrist causing him great pain and suffering and requiring medical and hospital attention, care and nursing, and sustaining loss of time from his work for a period of six weeks. It appears that this sidewalk was in a dangerous condi- tion because of rough, rounded and uneven condition of snow and ice for such a length of time that Special Session, June 15th, 1950 301 the City had notice thereof. After conference with the attorney for Claimant, he, has agreed to accept $350.00 in full payment of his claim. I recommend that his claim be allowed in the sum of $350.00 and that a warrant be issued payable to Louis F. Fautsch, Attorney for Michael J. McGovern upon delivery to the City of a release properly executed by plaintiff. Yours truly, John J. Kintzinger, City Solicitor. Councilman Russo moved that the recommendation of City Solici- tor Kintzinger be approved and the City Auditor instructed to draw a warrant in the amount of $350.00 in favor of Louis F. Fautsch, Attorney for Michael J. McGovern, as settle- menin full of the claim, and that said warrant be delivered upon re- ceipt by the City of Dubuque of a properly executed release.

Gentlemen: Pursuant to your instructions, a detailed survey and cost study were made for the proposed extension of Grandview Avenue, from Delhi Street, to Kaufmann Avenue. The attached report of the City Engineer, with the accompanying map and profiles, include studies of two routes. The first route known as "A" is by way of Audubon Street and through the property of the Independent School District, and Clarke College, to the water level, terminating on Kaufmann Avenue. The second route, known as route "B" is along Audubon Street to Dexter Street, thence by way of a portion of Rosedale Avenue over a portion of Avoca Street and Avoca Street extended through the water level and terminating at the same point on Kaufmann Avenue as does route "A." The estimates for these two routes, which are the only routes that in any way lend themselves to the extension of Grandview Avenue indicate the following: 1. That route "A" is approximate- ly thirteen hundred feet shorter than Route "B." 2. That the cost of route "A" is estimated to be approximately $302,000.00 id excess of the esti- mated cost of route "B," because of the viaduct and retaining walls required on method "A." 3. The construction of route "B" would not involve the problem of division of institutional property which in the case of Route "A" is presented to a considerable de- gress. 4. A study of the profile of the two routes indicate that more fav- orable grades can be had at a lesser cost by the construction of Route B." Because of the reasons cited above, 1 recommend that the pro- posal of route "B" for the location ision of the master plan of the City of Dubuque. Respectfully submitted, A. A.

Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Welu, Councilmen Austin, Kolb, Russo, Wynes. Nays—None. June 15, 1950. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At the meeting of June 5th I was instructed to submit to the Council a wo►kable plan for the development of City Island, the opening of Lake Pcosta, the acqui- sition of the Mihalakis property and problems allied thereto. At the outset it is well to recall that the statutes of Iowa and the Ordinanc. es of the City of Dubuque vest the control of the land under (is- cussion in the Dock Board. There- fore the decision as to the develop- ment of said Island, the opening of Lake Peosta and acquisition )f Mihalakis property must be made by the Dock Board. However, in the interest of working out the dif- ferences that exist between the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Dock Board, 1 suggest that a compromise be made as follows: That a water -way in lieu of Lake Peosta be dredged in a location easterly of the proposed highway shown on the revised Master Plan. materialThe om such d edg ngould obtained nusl edto buita some of the highway fill. On the westerly side of this proposed channel and the balance used t co raise the Island property of easterly side of the channel. The adoption of this proposal would afford a waterway with running water, a highway in the forseeable future and the raising f the gener. the Island al level of a portion of properly. 304 Special Session, June 15th, 1950 It is my recommendation that this proposal be presented to the Dock Board and the Planning and Zoning Commission for their con- sideration. As to the acquisition of the Mi- halakis property it is my recom- mendation that it be acquired upon a proper showing by the D o c k Board that the property is needed In the furtherance of their plans and that the use to which it would be put is one proper to and includ- ed in the uses for which condemna- tion precedure is available. One of the allied problems in- volved in the matter of City Island is of great importance. This is the polution in connection with t It e Bee Branch Sewer. It is my recom- mendation that steps be taken for the elimination of all wastes other than storm water from this sewer. The Bee Branch sewer is a storm water drain and the discharge of sanitary sewage and Packing House waste into it is contrary to the Purpose for which it was originally intended. This can be accomplished by the collection of waste matter on each side of the Bee Branch sewer in closed conduits and there- after disposing of such sewage by one of two methods. Either by requiring the Packing Company to process the sewa;e or by means of a pumping station discharging such sewage into the City's sanitary sewer m a i n on White Street at East 15th Street. A further matter that is of neces- sity involved is the removal of the dam of the Interstate Power Com- pany at the foot of East 8th Street and the provision for suitable dis- charge of the hot water from the generating station. I believe that the plan here sug- gested in an outline form will ac- complish the purposes of various agencies involved and I recommend that the various phases of it be allocated to the agencies having Jurisdiction over such segments of the problem. Respectfully submitted, A.A. Rhomberg, City Manager. Councilman Russo moved that the recommendations of City Man- ager Rhomberg be approved and that the City Manager be instruct. ed to meet with the Dock Board to ascertain their intent and pur- pose for the acquiring of Mihalakis property and to submit a report of this meeting to the City Solicifor for his recommendation and report. Seconded by Councilman Austin. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Welu, Councilmen Austin, Kolb, Russo, Wynes. Nays—None. June 15, 1950. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iwa. Gentlemen: At the meeting of June 5th 1 was instructed to confer with the attorney of the Sisters of Saint Francis to ascertain if the sisters wished to have Davis Street im- proved as previously petitioned. Such conference was had with Fran- cis J. O'Connor representing the sisters. He assured me that the sisters wanted the improvement made and in order to accomplish this is willing to dispense with spe- cial assessment procedure and en- ter into an agreement whereby his clients will pay in cash for an amount in excess of fifty per cent of the imprm•ement cost. Under such arrangement it would be necssary for the City to pay from the Street Construction Fund the balance of the cost not paid by the Sisters. It is my recommendation that the Council consider this method and if suitable negotiations can be had that the work be done outside of the special assessment method. Respectfully submitted, A.A. Rhomberg, City Manager. Councilman Austin moved that the recommendation of City Manag- er Rhomberg be approved. Second- ed by Mayor Welu. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Welu, Councilmen Austin, Kolb, Russo, Wynes. Nays—None. June 15, 1950. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council, Dubuque, Iowa. Gentlemen: At the meeting of June 5th the communication of the Parking and Intra -City Traffic Committee of Special Session, June 15th, 1950 305 the Chamber of Commerce with i reference to the construction of an underpass under the railroad tracks on East 14th Street was re- ferred to the City Manager and City Engineer for a report on the feasibility of such construction. Ac- cordingly, we have examined into this matter and find: 1. That an underpass at this point would have its lowest floor eleva- tion at about six feet on the river guage. At all stages of the river above six feet there would be uplift pressure on the structure equal to the volume displaced by it, which at a flood stage of twenty- one feet would be in excess of nine hundred pounds per square foot, requiring the structure to be designed with sufficient weight to counter -act the uplift. 2. The study of the underpass poses the problem of getting rid of storm water that would enter because the lowest level would be below the level of the river for the greater part of the year. 3. The easterly side of Elm Street is less than two hundred feet from the westerly track. It would be necessary to depress Elm Street a matter of four or five feet in order to secure grades for the westerly approach not in excess of eight per cent. Such depressions extend- ing of necessity a distance north and south from East 14th Street would increase the catchment area of storm water flowing into the proposed subway. 4. The underground utilities pres- ent in this area which would have to be relocated would present no great problem except in the case of the six foot diameter storm sew- er whose top is quite close to the present surface. For the reasons cited above it does not appear to us to be feasible to construct an underpass at this location at reasonable cost t h a c could be used throughout the year without serious interruption. We are convinced that a grade separation is urgently needed on East 14th Street and suggest the following means of accomplishing such end: It is our recommendation that an overpass of two lane width be considered with grades on its ap- proaches of approximately e i g h t per cent. With this per cent of grade the structure can be designed within the statutory limitation of eight hundred feet of total ap- proaches, It is our belief that on the relatively short sections of grades involved that eight per cent grades can be defended. We are aware that under this proposal that the intersection of Elm S t r e e t might require some lowering to the extent of approximately eight- een inches which, however, would not present the same type of prob- lem as a subway since drainage ',n this case can be afforded by the present storm sewer. Respectfully submitted, A. A. RHOMBERG, City Manager. R. J. GALLAGHER, City Engineer. Councilman Russo moved that rrc!)mriendation of City Man- ager Rhomberg and City Engineer Gallagher be approved and the City Manager and City Solicitor instruct- ed to take the necessary steps for the presentation of plans and speci- fications to the Iowa Commerce Commission for the construction of a two lane overpass at East 14th Street and the railroad tracks.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council, Dubuque, Iowa Gentlemen: At a session of the City Council of the City of Dubuque, Iowa, the following motion was adopted. That the petition of Richard C. Henschel and others asking the City Council to impose a two hour parking restriction on West 4th Street (west of Bluff Street) be referred to the Chief of Police for investigation, recommendation and report back to the City Council. I have made an investigation and find that this area is used very long parking periods by all classes of vehicles, some for days at a time. It is a very narrow street. It is a great attraction to tourists because of the elevator lift up the hill, being one of the things pointed out to them. It is my recommendation that parking be restricted to two hour parking between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Sundays and Holidays excepted. This is a thickly populated area and to pro- vide the greatest accessibility in case of fire particularly I further recommend that the parkway in the center of this street be re- moved. I also recommend that parking be restricted entirely at all times for a distance of fifty feet easterly from the westerly curb of Bluff Street just at the foot of the elevator lift to facili- tate turning movements of vehi- cles, (Both the South and North curbs). Respectfully yours, Jos. H. Strub, Chief of Police. Councilman Russo moved that the recommendation of Chief of Police Strub be approved and the proper proceedings ordered pre- pared. Seconded by Councilman Austin. Carried by the following vote: Yeas — Mayor Welu, Council- men Austin, Kolb, Russo. Nays — None. Absent — Councilman Wynes. June 19, 1950. Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council, Dubuque, Iowa Gentlemen: At a session of the City Council of the City of Dubuque, Iowa, held May 22, 1950, the following motion was adopted. That the petition of Herbert Hird and others requesting two hour parking restriction on Second Special Session, June 29th, 195Q 317 Street, between Locust and Bluff Streets be referred to the Chief of Police for investigation and re- port and recommendation made thereon. I have made an investigation and find that a congestion exists due to unlawful parking adjacent to the parkway in the center of this section of the street. This parking adjacent to this parkway has been the custom for many years. It is now discontinued. Second and Locust Street is con- trolled by Stop and Go lights and is extensively used in crossing Lo- cust Street to get to other streets both east and west, particularly by cars using Dodge Street and into the South Hill districts. Second Street west of Locust Street is not in great demand for turn over curb parking. It is my recommendation that there be no restriction on the park. ing in this area. It is further recom- mended due to the great use made of this street that the parkway in the center thereof be removed, thereby providing greater maneu- verability to the moving vehicles using this street. Respectfully submitted, Jos. H. Strub Chief of Police Mayor Welu moved that t h e recommendation of Chief of Po- lice Strub be approved. Seconded by Councilman Austin.
