Honorable Mayor

Zoning Commission has held a public
hearing on an amendment to Ordinance
No. 32.75 which proposes to enact a new
Section 4-109.4 to provide for and auth-
orize issuance of Conditional Use Per-
mits for certain limited commercial ac-
tivities in areas or in structures of his-
torical or architectural significance.
The Ordinance providing for this

areas or structures of historical or ar-
chitectural significance and recom-
mends your favorable consideration.

Mr. Alvin E. Lundh requested per-

following statement for the benefit of
the record:
January 31, 1977
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
Gentlemen:
1 sought the Solicitor's opinion when
it first became apparent that there was
the potential of a conflict of interest.
1 have made every effort in the past
three vears, as a member of the Council,
to remain totally honest and above re-
proach as regards conflicts of interest.
This was no exception.
My profession is the most vulnerable
type and therefore requires a great deal
of extra soul searching to be certain
conflicts do not exist.
In the past, if I've had even the remo-
test of conflicts 1 have abstained from
discussions and voting. During one such
instance 1 even physically left the
premises during debate.
In the matter of the Urban Renewal
question, 1 honestly thought I could be
involved and simply abstain as votes
became necessary. However, during the
tint discussion with officials concerning
the proposed project, it became appar-
ent that it might be against the law for
me to be involved. I then asked Mr.
Russo for an oral opinion. He stated that
he could not give me an opinion without
some study which he subsequently did.
Mr. Russo did not know at that point
whether it was legal or not. Therefore
how is a non -lawyer councilman sup-
posed to have the answer? It took
some 30 days for Mr. Russo to deliver
the opinion• during which time we
abandoned further effort on the project.
Also during that time it became more
and more apparent to me that econ-
omics would ultimately cause my
demise. 1 would rather be able to say
that I resigned in the face of irrevocable
conflict, but that is not true and it is a
great cause for embarassement to me to
have to publicly admit that I had not the
resources to cam out the obligation I
had accepted in the public trust as a
public servant. It is absolutely true that
I resigned only because I was econ-
omically dropped to my very knees.
There were financial obligations due
to operating losses which were to be
called on December B, 1976 and that day
was the precipitator. 1 paid those ob-
ligations by selling property jointly
owned by my partner and 1. This points
to sacrifices made by my partner for
which my public service is responsible. I
did not feel it fair to continue the drain
on him in the year to come.
I also concluded that I had to do work
in Dubuque to continue to exist. We had
deliberately avoided certain types of
projects to avoid the potential of con-
flict and certain potential clients have
avoided us because of the same reasons.
1 wish to apologize to the Council on
two scores. First, that you are having to
suffer indignities on something which is
truly my problem. Secondly, that I have
already released orally to Mr. Bulkley
the essential contents of the opinion
without your approval.
Since 1 have released the data orally,
it makes little sense as far as I am con-
cerned to withhold the document itself.
1 worked very hard to serve honora-
bly and I worked very hard to be a
producer and it seems that most of what
is positive suddenly condemns me to
wrath.
1 am bothered about the impact that
this inquisition will have on other po-
tential council candidates who have
similar professional impediments; that 1
believe is the real loss yet to be suffered.

Councilman Brady moved that the
communication be made a matter
of
record. Seconded by
Wertzberger. Carried by the following
vote:
Yeas — Mayor Stackis, Councilmen

Nays — None.
Councilman Wertzberger stated that

Council and to have Al Lundh as Mayor.
He sincerely hopes that other people of
Lundh's caliber and profession seek

conflict of interest to the news media.

December 1, 1976
Honorable Mayor and
City Council City Hall
Gentlemen:
The Mayor has asked for an opinion
concerning the prospect of a parcel of
Urban Renewal land situated in the
downtown of the City of Dubuque. Iowa
being sold to a purchaser by whom the
Mayor has been employed, for some
thirty days past now, to render profes-
sional architectural services in the de-
sign of a building proposed to be erected
on the site acquired.
It is my understanding that the Mayor
has already received part -payment on
the performance of his work.

ordinance or resolution shall be invalid
by reason of the vote or votes cast in
violation of the standards of this section
unless such vote or votes were decisive
in the passage of such ordinance or
resolution.
In addition to the foregoing, it should
be borne in mind that. Section 403.16
provides that any violation or provision
of this section shall constitute miscon-
duct in office, and therefore, any mis-
conduct in office could be grounds for
removal.
In examining the language of 403.16
same should be read in the light of the
decision rendered by the Supreme Court
of Iowa which was very, very, strong
and which was extremely broad in its
language and in its implications.
While the Iowa City case is not dir-
ectly on point to the problem at hand,
since we are not faced with a situation
on which a vote is being taken or Urban
Renewal project by people having a
direct proprietary interest therein, and
while said case spoke to the laws that
existed then, which has been modified in
some respects, the general holding of
the case and the language employed by
the Court is of very, very important
consequence. The Court stated as
follows:
"The high standards which the public
require of its servants were set by com-
mon law and adopted later by statute. It
is almost universally held that such
statutes are merely declaratory of the
common law.
These rules, whether common law or
statutory, are based on moral principles
and public policy. They demand com-
plete loyalty to the public and seek to
avoid subjecting a public servant to the
difficult, and often insoluble, task of
deciding between public duty and
private advantage." The Court further
went on to say: "it is not necessary that
this advantage be a financial one.
Neither is it required that there be a
showing that the official sought or
gained such a result. It is the potential
for conflict of interest which the law
desires to avoid." A machine copy of the
opinion is attached hereto in order that
you may examine same at your leisure
and understand its import to the fullest.
Retummg now to the question at hand,
it appears that the language of Section
403.16 is specific in the fact that the
Mayor has acquired a personal interest
in the Urban Renewal Area by reason of
his association with a client who has
paid him a retainer for the preliminary
study concerning the erection and con-
struction of a building on an Urban
Renewal site after its purchase from the
City by said client.
The basic question, then, appears to
be that the present member of the City
Council proposes to voluntarily acquire
a personal interest in property included
in Urban Renewal project or in a con-
tract, or a proposed contract, in con-
nection with such Urban Renewal
project. The statutory language appears
to be clear and unequivocal that such
conduct is prohibited.
In conclusion, reviewing the entire
discussion of this matter and synthesiz-
ing the same, it appears to this writer
that on the factual situation above out-
lined as read and evaluated in the terms
of the Wilson vs Iowa City case, that,
were the Supreme Corurt to speak on
this matter, it is the opinion of this
writer that the Supreme Court of Iowa
would hold that such conflict of inter-
ests of the City Councilman -Mayor and
Architectural consultant to a person
purchasing Urban Renewal property for
development for a commercial and/or
home for the elderly purposes would be
such a conflict of interests as would fall
within the prohibition announced in the
Wilson vs Iowa City case.
It has been suggested that as an al-
ternative, a resignation by the Mayor
Councilman could be a solution.
The decision of the Mayor -Council-
man in that regard goes into the area of
a personal interest and to which this
opinion will not speak and it must
remain for private counsel to advise the
Councilman -Mayor in that regard.
However, it appears that the prohibition
contained in the foregoing sections
relate to a public official. Therefore, if
such architecutral consultant to the
purchaser of the Urban Renewal
property is not a public official it would
appear that the prohibitions of Chapter
403 or 403A would no longer be
applicable.
In conclusion, it is the opinion of this
writer that were the Mayor -Councilman
to participate in the negotiations, dis-
Special Session, January 31, 1977 41
posal and development of the said Ur-
ban Renewal property, that conceivably
the participation by the Mavor-Coun-
cilman in the negotiations and the ul-
timate action of disposal of said proper-
ty could be such that his vote would not
be decisive in the passage of such ordina
nee or resolution. However, it is my
opinion that such conduct on the part of
the Councilman -Mayor would consti-
tute misconduct in office and could
subject said Councilman -Mayor to
removal proceedings.
In conclusion, it would appear that as
in the Iowa City case, residents of the
City of Dubuque Iowa, whomever they
might be, could bring an action chal-
lenging the validity of the proceedings.

February 16, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and City Council
At your direction we have met with
Mr. Peter Takos in connection with the
contents on the attached letter.
This is to advise that we have been
unable to arrive at a satisfactory arran-
gement in connection with the 4th
Street location. Mr. Miller has indicated
through Mr. Takos that they wish to
purchase the property outright or enter
into a lease arrangement of not less than
50 years. It is our opinion that due to the
uncertainty of the future development
of the total 4th Street area that the land
in question not be sold. it was indicated
however to Mr. Takos that a five year
90 Special Session, February 21, 1977
lease arrangement would be recom-
mended to the City Council.
The other matter under discussion
concerns the location of a sanitary
sewer on premises owned by Mr. Miller
on Southern Avenue. Upon advice of the
City Attorney, we have advised Mr.
Takos that the city has no liability in
this matter.
We anticipate that Mr. Miller will be
present at the Feburary 21 Council
meeting.

Peter J. Takos Sr., addressed the

To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
In regard to the Dubuque Yacht Ba-
sin's request to install a sign on the
Kerper median strip. I would advise that
the petition, as submitted, be denied.
1 would suggest as an alternate loca-
tion for the sign, the northeast corner of
16th and Kerper, on the Kerper
Boulevard right-of-way. The sign
should be limited to the following:
DUBUQUE YACHT BASIN
SPORTS MART
The size of the sign should be ap-
proximately Y x 2' and should be double
faced for visibility from the north and
south approaches.
I have contacted Mr. Shanley of the
Yacht Basin on this alternate, and he is
agreeable to such a location.
I would therefore recommend that
the ordinance granting him permission
to erect the sign be approved as outlined
herein.

Special Session, February 21, 977
February 15, 1977
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
On January 10, 1977 we received a
proposal from the Iowa Department of
Transportation allowing for federal
participation in the installation of ad-
vance warning signs for railroad corss-
ings in the city.
The signs would be placed a minimum
of 100 feet in advance of the crossing.
We have a total of 58 signs which should
be erected to conform to the Iowa
Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices, and which are eligible under
the program. The FHWA would furnish
the signs and posts for us to erect. We
would pay them 10% of the material
cost. They, in turn, would reimburse us
for 90% of our labor cost to install the
signs.
I would estimate the following city
cost would be incurred:
58 signs $162.00
58 posts ..................... 57.00
City labor .................. 235.00
$454.00
FHWA would reimburse of 90% of our
labor cost, or $211.00.
1 have talked to Merle Felderman
about the program, and he indicates
that his personnel would be available to
install the signs.
1 would recommend that we proceed
with the program as outlined. Enclosed
is a resolution authorizing the Mayor to
execute the agreement on behalf of the
City Council

Honorable Mayor
and Councilmen
We enclose copies of correspondence
with the Federal Highway Administra-
tion advising of circumstances on
property of Joseph and Ruth Siegert
relating to the proposed North-West
Arterial.
We have determined that our
preferred roadway location and the
Siegert's subdivision plans are irrecon-
cilable, and that acquisition of right-
of-way is now required for protection of
the roadway corridor. The Federal

Department of Transportation have
consented to this acquisition. A Resolu-
tion is enclosed which so orders that the
acquisition proceed. A second enclosed
Resolution is necessary to state our
intent to comply with applicable state
and federal acquisition regulations.
We recommend adoption of the

Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
Several weeks ago the city manager
agreed to the installation of plastic
water main, capable of withstanding 150
pound pressure per square inch, in the
Cedar Lake Subdivison. The arran-
gement was made after protracted
negotiation and investigation to secure
a main installation that would meet
water pressure requirements for the
area and American Water Works As-
sociation specifications.
The usual water main installation
required by the city is either cast iron or
ductile iron pipe capable of withstand-
ing pressure of 200 pounds per square
inch.
The Plumbing Board has expressed
concern about the water main installa.
tion in Cedar Lake Subdivision. In re-
sponse to their concern, Mr. Murray and
I met with Plumbing Board members
and the Building Commissioner on Fe.
bruary 11. At this meeting the Cedar
Lake Subdivision development was
recounted and city ordinances and pipe
standards briefly reviewed. The board
members inquired as to whether or not
150 p.s.i. plastic pipe could be used in
other areas. It was indicated that this
had not yet been accepted city-wide and
that with advice of the board the matter
would be promptly considered.

February 25, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and City Council
Recently, at one of your meetings, the
Cedar Lake Subdivision project came
to your attention for action by way of
approval of a final plat, and in the ex-
amination of same you referred two
questions to this writer for a answer,
which are as follows:
1. Can construction work commence
on a subdivision prior to final approval
of plats by City Council, i.e. grading
streets and installation of utilities?
2. Does the administration have the
authority to change specifications on
type of water pipe for water mains
without approval of Council — in this
case approval of plastic pipes?
In answer to question one, it would
clearly appear that until the final ap-
proval of the plat by the City Council is
granted any substantial work per-
formed in the terms of grading for
streets and installation of utilities would
be done at the peril of the subdivider.
However, the subdivider in question
would have a right to rely upon existing
laws in effect at the time of such work
performed.
In addressing the attention of this
writer to the second question, it appears
that there is a vacuum in the legal ma-
chinery relating to the subdivisions
pertaining to water distribution systems
and service lines running to serve the
individual residences. The matter as it
stands now is that the service line run-
ning from the Main to the individual lots
or residences is governed by ordinance
and requires certain specifications for
said service line. The provisions thereof
are covered under Section 36-122 of the
Code of Ordinances of the City of
Dubuque, Iowa at Page 2292 thereof,
which section was formerly Section 4 of
Ordinance 5.59. This section clearly
provides that the material be a copper
pipe.
It appears that there is no specific
ordinance governing type of material
concerning the water mains. I am in-
formed, however, that by custom and
usage and practice and adopted by the
City of Dubuque that certain materials
have been required for the installation
of water mains.
While the general regulations cover-
ing subdivisions are a subject matter of
statutory coverage under Chapter 409
of the 1975 Code of Iowa as well as the
Subdivision Ordinance of the City of
Dubuque, Iowa now known as Chapter
34 of the Code of Ordinances of the City
of Dubuque, Iowa, and which was for-
merly Subdivision Ordinance No. 65-57.
In addition to the foregoing, however,
Article IV, Division 1 of the Code of
Ordinances of the City of Dubuque,
Iowa at Page 2284, et seq. generally
deals with utilities and Section 36 ther-
eof deals with water, under the general
title of utilities.
Section 36-105 of the Code of Ordin.
ances of the City of Dubuque, Iowa at
Page 2287 and titled "Extension of
Mains" states as follows:
"Section 36-105. Extension of mains.
Any person desiring a water main ex-
tension shall apply for the same in writ-
ing to the superintendent of the water
department, who will make an inves-
tigation and submit the same with his
recommendation to the city manager
and city council for their decision. (Or-
dinance No. 5-59 S 42, 2.9-59)"
It would appear to this writer that any
extension of water mains, whether it be
done individually or collectively or by
way of a subdivision, it was the inten-
tion of the City Council that it retain
such control over the extensions of
water mains as is exemplified and
represented in the language contained
in said section.
It is the opinion of this writer that in
order to establish the standards posed
by the question before this writer that
114
Special Session, February 25, 1977
such standards should be reasonable.
have some relationship or bearing to the
public safety, health and welfare and
have some degree of uniform
application.
Accordingly, it is the recommenda-
tion of the City Attorney's Office that
this matter be reviewed by the City
Council together with the administra-
tive staff and that if the plastic is to be
approved, then let it be done by ordin-
ance uniform in application as near as
practicable and defining the conditions
and limitations of such use, if any, and
that such use either be permitted or
prohibited from the service lines with a
view that the subdivider, the builders
and the general public and the world at
large are reasonably and reliably in-
formed and advised what is permitted
and what is prohibited.

March 'l, 1977
Honorable Mayor and
City Councilmen
On April 2, 1973, Roy A. Kuch and
Regular Session, March 7, 1977
Marie L. Kuch commenced an action
against the City of Dubuque, Iowa and
Donald T. Sand and Malinda Sand
claiming damages in the amount of
$20,000.00 in Count I thereof and
$2,500.00 in Count 11 thereof.
The essence of plaintiffs' claim was
that on December 30, 1972, Roy A. Kuch
fell on an accumulation of ice and snow
on the premises of 2364 Washington
Street in the City of Dubuque, Iowa, and
that the matter was then referred to the
City Attorney's Office to interpose the
appropriate defenses thereto.
This matter was scheduled for dis-
missal and a stipulation was entered
into by the Assistant City Attorney and
the plaintiffs' attorney that the matter
be settled upon payment of the sum of
$200.00 by the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
Thereafter the plaintiffs and plain-
tiffs' attorney had some difficulty com-
municating, and this matter was
recently resolved and accordingly the
offer to settle has still been maintained
open, and it is the recommendation of
the City Attorney's Office that said
above entitled litigation be settled upon
the payment of $200.00 by the City of
Dubuque. Accordingly, it is the recom-
mendation of the City Attorney that
said offer be accepted and that the City
Auditor be instructed to draw a warrant
payable to Roy A. Kuch and Marie L.
Kuch and Peter J. Klauer their attorney
in the amount of $200.00 and to transmit
the same upon delivery of the duly ex-
ecuted releases and payment of the
Court costs along with a dismissal with
prejudice.
A copy of the Original Notice with
Petition attached is herewith returned.

March 4, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and City Council
The City Council has inquired about
the use of the services of Mr. Steven B.
Rvnecki in labor negotiations.
Mr. Steven Rynecki was consulted by
me in the period January 13, 1977
through February 8, 1977. It was in this
period that we were conducting exten-
sive labor negotiations and preparing
for fact finding hearings and had the
urgent need for the knowledge of a
person experienced in labor
negotiations.
Mr. Rynecki was asked to review all
union demands and to research those
demands that appeared to be nonman-
datory negotiable issues as defined by
the Public Employment Relations Act.
Mr. Rynecki did research declaratory
rulings of the Public Employment Rela-
tions Board and provided us cases that
were pertinent to the issues involved.
His opinion was also requested on the
appropriate strategy to be used by the
city in conducting negotiations with the
various unions. His ideas were solicited
in the preparation of briefs to be used in
fact finding. Mr. Rynecki reviewed with
us briefs prepared for the fact finding
hearing on February 8, 1977 and advised
us on the methods to be used in the
presentation of our position to the fact
finder in this hearing.
Mr. Rynecki did not participate in any
negotiations with city unions. He did
not prepare amy material used by the
city in fact finding or did he assist in
preparation of material for the hearing
with the Public Employment Relations
Board on March 1, 1977. Members of the
personnel department and myself met
with him on four separate occasions
January 24, February 5, February 7 and
February 8. Mr. Ryencki has not been
consulted by anyone in the personnel
department or myself since the fact
finding hearing on February 8, 1977.
Expenses for his services were about
$2,000. This amount of money was bud-
geted in the FY '77 budget for an-
ticipated expenses incurred in labor
negotiations.

March S. 1977
Honorable Mayor
and Councilmen
The City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has reviewed the
petition of the Powers Land Develop-
ment Company which requested reclas-
sification of 5 parcels of property. Four
of the parcels are located in "Powers
Place", an area bounded on the north by
Asbury Road and on the west by John F.
Kennedy Road. The fifth parcel is a
portion of Mineral Lot 263, located at
the southwest corner of the intersection
of Judson Drive and Asbury Road. The
location and the zoning reclassification
request on each parcel is depicted on the
attached map.
The Commission has tabled action on
Parcel 1 pending completion of the
Kennedy Road report, and has
scheduled a March 16, 1977, public
hearing on Parcel 4 and will report their
recommendations on those parcels to
you at a later date.
In considering the petitions, the
Commission has made the following
determinations:
that the existing zoning classification
on Parcel 2 and Parcel 3 are appropriate
and that no useful purpose would be
served by reclassification of those
properties;
that the request for OR -la Office -Re-
sidential District Classification on Par-
cel 5 is substantially the same request
that the Commission heard in January,
1976. In denying the 1976 request the
Commission noted the impact that the
range and intensity of uses in the OR -1
District would have on the subject
property and which might later apply to
other vacant properties in the general
vicinity.
The Commission has found the pre-
sent zoning classification on Parcels 23,
and 5 to be appropriate and have voted
to deny those requests.

Honorable Mayor
and City Council
At vour work session of January 25,
1977, the matter of a proposed Historical
Preservation Ordinance was referred to
the Planning and Zoning Commission
for their report and recommendation.
The staff and members of the Preser-
vation Advisory Board met to consider

in response to concerns that were
voiced at the City Council's work ses-
sion. The ordinance and suggested revi-
sions were considered by the Planning
Commission at their special meeting of
February 28.
The Planning and Zoning Commis-

proposed Historic Preservation Ordin-
ance submitted to you under separate

Honorable Mayor
and City Council
On behalf of the Ad Hoc Preservation
Advisory Board, I am pleased to submit
a revised Historical Preservation Ordin-
ance for Dubuque
A number of amendments have been
158
Regular Session, April 4. 1977
incorporated into the attached final
draft ordinance. You should note that
routine repairs and maintenance of
structures in historical preservation
districts have been exempted from the
scope of the ordinance, which now ap-
plies only to exterior alteration!' that
would otherwise be subject to issuance
of a building permit. The final draft also
incorporates a number of procedural
safeguards aimed at insuring a more
enforceable approach to historical
preservation.
We believe that you share our view
that the natural setting and architec-
tural character of Dubuque have
provided us an urban environment un-
ique to the state of Iowa and one de-
serving of the stewardship that the
proposed ordinance would provide.
We look forward to discussing the
proposed Historical Preservation Or-
dinance with you and will urge your
favorable consideration of it.

Period, the matter shall be transmitted

tion of the Historic Preservation Com-
mission and the report of the Planning

ance of a structure or site within a
designated district shall be mude or

mit shall have been obtained for such
change as provided by the ordinance.
f After approval of a designation by
the Council, it shall be the duty of the
Historic Preservation Commission to
review all plans for any and all material
changes in appearance of a structure or
site within anv district and it shall have
the power to pass upon such plans
before a regulated permit for such can
be granted, provided that the Commis-
sion shall pass only on such features of a
change as are visible from the public
way. The Commission shall issue a cer-
tificate of appropriateness if it approves
plans submitted to it for review. The
Commission shall approve only if it finds
either:
1. The proposed work in creating,
changing, destroying, or affecting the
exterior architectural features of the
improvement or site upon which the
work is to be done will not have a
substantial adverse effect on the
aesthetic, historical, or architectural
significance and value of either the
Property itself or of the neighboring
improvements in such district. In
considering architectural and cultur-
al values, the Commission shall de-
termine whether the proposed change
is consistent with the historic value
and the spirit of the architectural
style of the district: or
_'. that the denial of a Certificate of
Appropriateness would prevent the
owner of the improvement within an
historic district from earning a rea-
sonable return or enjoying a ben-
eficial occupance or other interest in
his property. The Building Commis-
sioner, City Engineer, or other local
authorities shall not issue a regulated
permit until such Certificate of Ap-
propnuteness has been issued by the
Commission.
g. Demolition of structures erected
within historic districts and deemed by
the Commission to be of a particular
architectural or historical significance
shall be prohibited unless, upon ap-
plication, the Commission finds that the
prohibition of demolition prevents the
owner of the property from earning any
reasonable return on the property. In
the event that the structure is found to
be of unique value, the Commission,
may, notwithstanding the showing of an
absence of a reasonable return, deny
permission to demolish, provided, how-
ever, that a denial of permission to
demolish shall prohibit demolition for no
more than four months from the date of
application for a permit to demolish,
unless at the expiration of four months,
adjustments have been made which
Session, April 4,1977
allow for such a return. During this time
the Commission shall eneeovor to for-
mulate, with the owner, an economical-
ly feasible plan for the preservation of
such structure. h. Other Powers in addi-
tion to those duties and powers specified
above. the Commission may, with
Council approval
1. Accept unconditional gifts and dona-
tions of real and personal property,
including money, for the purpose of
historic preservation.
2. Acquire by purchase, bequest, or
donation, fee and lesser interests in
historic properties, including proper-
ties adjacent to or associated with

a. Application for a regulated permit
shall be made to the Building Commis-
sioner. In the event that the application
is made by way of an application for a
building permit, the application will
state that the work is to be done within
an historical district. The Commission
may require submission of such draw-
ings, sketches, photographs, or other
exhibits as it deems reasonably neces-
sary for consideration of the
application.
b. Upon the filing of such application,
161
the Building Commissioner shall im-
mediately notify the Historic Preserva-
tion Commission of the receipt of such
application and shall transmit it
ttgether with accompanying plans and
other information to the Commission,
unless it pertains solely to the interior of
the structure.
c. The Historic Preservation Commis-
sion shall meet within fourteen days
after notification by the Building Com-
missioner of 'he filing, unless otherwise
mutually agreed upon by the applicant
and Commission, and shall review the
plans according to the duties and
powers specified herein. In reviewing
the plans, the Commission may confer
with the applicant or his authorized
representative.
d. The Commission shall approve or
disapprove such plans, and if approved
shall issue a Certificate of Appropriate-
ness which is to be signed by the Chair-
man, attached to the application for the
regulated permit and immediately
transmitted to the Building
Commissioner.
e. If the Commission disapproves of
such plans, it shall state its reasons for
doing so and shall transmit a record of
such action and reasons therefore in
writing to the Building Commissioner
and to the applicant. The Commission

Appropriateness has been filed with the
Building Commissioner. In the event the
Commission disapproves of a proposed
plan, its notice of disapproval shall be
binding upon the Building Commis-
sioner and no permit shall be issued in
such a case. The failure of the Commis-
sion to act within forty-five days from
the date of an application filed with it,
unless an extension is agreed upon mu-
tually by the applicant and the Com-
mission, shall be deemed to constitute
approval. In the event, however, that
the Commission shall make a finding
that the circumstances of a particular
application require further time for ad-
ditional study and information than can
be obtained within the aforesaid period
of fey -five days, then in said event the
Commission shall have a period of up to
ninety days within which to act upon
such an application.
g. After the Certificate of Appro-
162 Regular Session, April 4, 1977
priatenesS has been issued and the
regulated permit granted to the ap-
plicant, the Building Commissioner shall
from time to time inspect the construc-
tion, alteration, or repair approved by
such Certificate and shall take such
action as is necessary to enforce com-
pliance with the approved plans.
h. Nothing in this ordinance shall be
construed to prevent ordinary mainten-
ance or repair of any structure within
an historic district where such main.
tenance or repair does not involve a
material change of appearance, as her-
ein defined.
Section 7. Appeals

of the Historic Preservation Commission

jurisdiction in Dubuque County, Iowa.

ed by law to enforce the provisions of
this ordinance, including but not limited
to, injunctive relief.

ordinance be decided by a court of this
state to be unconstitutional or invalid,

ty of the ordinance as a whole or any
part thereof other than the part so

The City of Dubuque Planning and

hearing on the petition of the Powers
Land Development Company to reclas-
sify a .58 acre tract in "Powers Place"
and shown as parcel 4 on the attached
map from R-2 Residential District to R-3
Residential District classification. The
property has frontage on the south side
of the 3200 block of Asbury Road just
east of its intersection with John F.
Kennedy Road in the City of Dubuque,
Iowa.
In hearing the matter, the Planning
and Zoning Commission determined
that application of the R-3 District clas-
sification to this property is acceptable
and that the parcel could reasonably
serve as a buffer zone between single
family development and an existing
commercial establishment. There was
no one present at the public hearing to
speak in opposition to the proposal. The
Commission recommends your favora-

April 7, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and City Council
The question regarding illegal Part
135 operations at the Dubuque Mun-
icipal Airport has been referred to the
City Attorney for consideration.
It is my understanding from my
knowledge of the operations at the Air-
port that anyone in violation of the Part
135 operations at the Dubuque Mun-
icipal Airport is in such violation with-
out the consent of knowledge of any of
the Airport personnel, the Airport Man-
ager or the Airport Commission. Con-
sequently, it is very difficult to secure
proof of such illegal activity.
The foregoing being the fact, I see no
legal liability on the part of the City and
or its Airport Commission arising out of
or in any way connected with such
illegal activity.
As the best stop -gap measure, it is
suggested that the Airport Commission
adopt a standard provision in their
leases providing that the lessee agrees
that under no circumstances will he it
engage in illegal Part 135 operations;
and in the event that such is done, the
same shall be summary grounds for
cancellation of the lease and for any and
all damages inuring to the City as a
result of the termination of the lease.
Any other attempted remedy would
tacitly acknowledge and recognize that
such activity is going on, when in truth
and in fact no proof has been furnished
or established concerning the same.
It is not sufficient for some person to
report any alleged violation of Part 135
operations to the City Council, but it
must be more than that, that is to rise to
the level of proof of such a quantum as
would be a basis for the appropriate
action as would be available to cause
such practices to be discontinued.
R.N. Russo
City Attorney
Councilman Pregler moved that the
communication be received and filed
and referred to the Airport Commission.

On January 31, 1977, Lucille G. Henkel
filed claim against the City of Dubuque,
low, for personal injuries allegedly suf-
fered on January 26, 1977, as a result of
being struck by a park bench blown
against her while waiting for a bus on
178
Session, April 18, 1977
West 9th Street adjacent to the bank
parking lot.
This matter was referred to the City
Attorney's Office who has made an in-
vestigation of said matter and conferree
with the claimant and has learned she
suffered abrasions, bruises and three
broken ribs because of said incident and
has incurred doctor and medical ex-
penses and has made an offer of sett-
lement in the amount of $65.00.
In view of the foregoing, it is the
recommendation of the City Attorney's
Office that said offer of settlement be
accepted and that the City Finance Of-
fice be instructed to issue a warrant
payable to Lucille G. Henkel in the
amount of $65.00 and transmit same to
the City Attorney's Office for delivery
upon receipt of appropriate releases.
Original claim is returned herewith.

April 14, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and City Council
You will recall that in approximately
July of 1976 Thermo King Sales and
Service of Dubuque, Inc. made an offer
to purchase certain property in the in-
dustrial island from the City of
Dubuque, Iowa, and that the Mayor's
Industrial Committee recommended the
said sale.
The Council ordered the sale of the
property upon the recommendation of
the Mayor's Industrial Committee and
referred the matter to the City Attorney
for the preparation of proper proceed-
ings, and that thereafter the proceed-
ings were completed. On the 7th day of
January, 1977, the City Attorney ad-
pised the City Council that the prospec-
tive purchaser had requested an exten-
sion of time to complete the transaction

SUBJECT: Avon Park
The City Council had authorized an
application for supplementary federal
assistance for the Avon Park project
from the Land and Water Conservation
fund. We have recently been informed
by the Iowa Conservation Commission
that this application has not been ap-
proved. However, the Commission has
also informed us that we may modify
our proposal and resubmit it for funding
in the next quarterly review cycle. This
review will occur in June of this year. It
is our intention to resubmit the applica-
tion for a reduced supplementary grant,
in hopes of receiving additional assis-
tance on construction items. We
propose that property acquisition costs
be fully absorbed within the Communi-
ty Development Block Grant.
We now wish to proceed with
property acquisition for the project.
Preliminary steps have already been
completed, including approval of a fair
market value appraisal report. We have
attached a Resolution authorizing ac-
quisition of the two parcels at a price
not less than appraised value. The Re-
solution also delegates acquisition
authority to the City Manager.
We request your authorization to
proceed with the project and ask your
approval of the attached Resolution.

Honorable Mayor
and Councilmen
We seek to confirm your selection of
alignment alternatives for the North-
west Arterial. We have attached a re-
solution for this purpose, and have at-
tempted to reflect your expressed con -
census in the identification of align-
ments for further study.
The matter of an alignment selection
in the vicinity of Admiral Street (Met -
tel -Byrne Subdivision) was also raised
at your work session of April 25. In
reviewing our communication to you
of February 16, 1977, and the resolution
authorizing protective acquisition of a
selected roadway corridor in the Siegert
farm, it appears that the implications of
that action may not have been clear.
Therefore, we have re -submitted our
letter and our earlier correspondence
with the Federal Highway Administra-
tion and Iowa DOT for your review. We
will be prepared to address the Council
on this matter is you so desire.

The City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has reviewed the
request of Mrs. Lavon Duscher to re-
classify Lot 34 of O'Neill's Riverview
Addition from R-2 Residential District
to R4 Residential District classification
to permit her to build a duplex on the
property. The 5000 square foot lot is
located in the 500 block of O'Neill Street
in the City of Dubuque, Iowa, as shown
on the attached map.
The Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion has voted to deny the petition
based on the following: the size of the
property (50' x 100'); the single-family
residential character of the neighbor-
hood and that reclassification of this
property would constitute "spot" zon-
ing and set a precedent for similar
requests in the future. The Commission
recommends that the request be denied.

May 9, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and Councilmen
We hereby submit a staff report on
"Reconstruction of the Madison Street
(Seminary Hill) Steps."
In 1975, the City Council expressed its
desire to obtain a preliminary design
and cost estimate for this project in
hopes of attracting public and private
interest. The matter was referred to
staff on October 20, 1975, and initial
work began in collaboration with a
committee of councilmen, city staff, and
private citizens. The committee sug-
gested that a well -presented design and
preliminary cost estimate could be ef-
fective in attracting public interest and,
perhaps, private contributions. Staff
work was carried out in response to that
suggestion.
As a design and report were achieved,
we felt that the purpose of attracting
public interest would be served by the
added stature the project might receive
in national design competition. The de-
sign was entered in the recent National
Awards Program of the American
Society of Landscape Architects. I am
pleased to report that the design is one
of two projects receiving a Special
Recognition Award in this year's ASLA
competition. The comments of the
award jury are included in the attached
report.
As an initial request for consultant
assistance was denied, we had felt un-
easy in undertaking a project so
demanding of design skills. I believe
that David Dahlquist (as project direc-
224 Special Session, May 16, 1977
tor). Larry Dunkin, and Sandy Welsh
have performed very well in a challeng-
ing assignment. We hope that you will
find their work to be a successful re-
sponse to the Council's directive of
October, 1975. We look forward to pre-
senting the project to you. We recom-
mend that the report he received, filed,
and referred to your official record for
the benefit of any public or private
interest that may emerge in support of a
Madison Street Steps reconstruction
project.

This is relative to a letter dated April
21, 1977 addressed to the City Council
by Francis J. O'Connor with an attached
statement of objection from residents of
the sunset Ridge Subdivision.
A meeting was held by citizens of this
neighborhood with representatives of
our Public Works Department on April
20, 1977. At this meeting the route of the
proposed sewer, the total cost and the
assessable cost were explained. Refer-
ence to this meeting is made in the letter
from Mr. O'Connor to the Council.
In consideration of the objections
from the neighborhood we would
recommend dropping the proposed
project. We would suggest that the
money assigned to this project in the FY
'78 budget be assigned to other sanitary
sewer projects, which will be submitted
to the City Council in the near future.

SUBJECT: Avon Park — Application for
Federal Assistance
On April 18, 1977, we advised that the
application for supplementary federal
assistance for acquisition and develop-
ment of Avon Park was not approved by
the Iowa Conservation Commission. At
that time, you had also approved a Re-
solution authorizing acquisition of two
parcels for the park, to be fully funded
through the Community Development
Block Grant.
In our discussions with the Conser-
vation Commission's staff, we learned
that our inclusion of certain site
preparation items, such as structure
demolition, grading, street curb re-
placement, and others, produced a rela-
tively low ranking in the "Site Quality"
criteria used in their project rating
system. The total development cost for
Avon Park is now estimated to be
$62813.00. This figure includes
$17,204.00 for site preparation work. We
are hopeful that with the exclusion of
these supportive items and an amended
application the project might still stand
a good chance of receiving partial sup-
plementation from the Land and Water
Conservation Fund.
We wish to resubmit an amended
application for 50% cost sharing of an
estimated $45,609.00 of recreation relat-
ed development items. Contribution of
the Community Development Block
Grant funds would be $40,009.00, in-
cluding approximately $17,000.00 in-
dependently funded site preparation
costs and $22,805.00 to match the
requested LAWCON funding. We have
attached a Resolution authorizing the
submittal of the amended application.
Additionally the Assurance of Com-
Special Session, May 16, 1977 239

ture We request your approval to sub-
mit the amended application and ask

May 11, 1977
Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
The enclosed resolution will author-
ize the execution of a revised contract
for the Section 8 Existing Housing As-
sistance Payments Program.
The City of Dubuque has a five-year
contract under this program which
commenced June 11, 1976 with the first
fiscal year ending June 30, 1977. The
contract authorized the following unit
distribution for the City of Dubuque:
1 Bedroom — 154
2 Bedroom — 48
3 Bedroom — 37
4 Bedroom — 10
The success of the program has been
overwhelming in one and especially two
bedroom unit classifications. Due to
limitation in authorized rent levels,
(Fair Market Rent — FMR) the three
and four bedroom units, though in
demand by large families, are not readi-
ly available to our clients. We are unable
to obtain a significant adjustment in the
FMR. As a result it appears expedient to
seek a transfer of units from the three
and four bedroom unit classifications to
the two bedroom classification, where a
greater need is apparent.
We have reviewed this plan with
HUD staff and they concur with the
recommendation. Such unit redistribu-
tion will assist the City of Dubuque
provide service to more low income
families before June 30, 1977 than would
be possible under the current
distribution.
We are hereby recommending your
approval of this revision. The new unit
Distribution will be.
I Bedroom — 154 (no change)
2 Bedroom — 67 (increase of 19)
3 Bedroom — 25 (decrease of 12)
4 Bedroom — 3 (decrease of 7)
The maximum Annual Contributions
Contract amount will be $397,512.00 a
reduction of $4,764, from the currently
available $402,276. Such reduction is
attributable to the lower cost of two
bedroom units.

for R-3 Residential District classifica-
tion on property fronting on Kane
Street in "Equestrian Heights" Subdivi-
sion in the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
At their meeting of May 12, 1977, the
Commission amended their minutes of
January 19, 1977, to acknowledge
receipt of the Swift's revised petition
which reduced the acreage requested
from R-3 Residential District classifica-
tion from 3.5 acres to approximately 2.5
acres. The shaded pattern on the at-
tached maps depict the proposals; Map 1
portrays the original 3.5 acre request
and Map 2 shows the revised 2.5 acre
plan. The Planning and Zoning Com-
mission also took official action to
amend their minutes to reflect their
intent to deny the Swift's revised 2.5
acre rezoning proposal.

June 1, 1977
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
Please find attached a Resolution and
Attachment for your approval of
proposed changes in the Housing
Rehabilitation Program guidelines.
These changes have been proposed to
enable the Rehab Program to approve
grants for applicants whose income is
no more than half of the average income
in Dubuque, The current maximum in-
come is much less than the proposed
maximum. The effect of this change will
be to allow more people to be eligible for
Conditional Repair Grants. This change
is necessary because people excluded
from qualifying for a grant under the
current maximum still have incomes
which are too low for them to obtain the
necessary repair money through a loan,
since they can't afford to repay the loan.
Many of the people affected by this
change are on pensions, and cannot
take on the financial obligation of a
loan.
These changes will allow the Rehab
Program to approve many more ap-
plications, serve the City more effec-
tively, and yet remain financially sound.
Therefore, on behalf of the Rehabilita-
tion Commission, 1 request your ap-
proval of this resolution.

sidering resolutions approving applica-
tions for Preliminary Lot for Low -Rent
Public Housing and Authorizing sub-
mission of application for the Low -Rent
Housing program and acting upon such
other business as may properly come
before a regular meeting of the Council.
Mr, Daniel Dittemore City Planner
and Director of Community Develop-
ment addressed the Council by stressing
the need for the program. At the present
time there are 19000 households in the
Citv, of that amount 5000 are eligible by
virtue of income for Government assis-
tance. 2300 also have one or more
deficiencies either structurally or over-
crowded or paying more than 25% of
income for rent. There are 288 large
families, 155 owners and 133 renters,
and approximately half live in substan-
dard housing.
Mr. Karl Kohnen addressed the
Council by stating that Dubuque has an
extremely low fair market rental rate.
The problem may not be answered until
October. Three or four bedroom units
are not readily available. The going
rental rate is $212 per month for three
bedroom units which includes al-
lowance for utilities.
Councilman Wertzberger moved that
the rules be suspended in order to let
anyone present address the Council if

Mr, Erv. Koethe, a half owner of a 52
unit complex on Rhomberg Ave. ad-
dressed the Council be stating that his
complex was built in 1950. The present
rental is from $175 to $194 per unit.
Dubuque has adequate housing. The
City seems to be proposing to be indir-
ect competition with the private sector.
He raised the question why two be-
droom units. What we need is four be-
droom units. Just remember Govern-
ment housing pays no taxes.
Doris Hengtgen of the Housing Com-
mission stated that we do not have two,
three, or four bedroom units available.
In her opinion forth eight units would be
good.
Mr. Wm. Watters also of the Housing
Commission stated that the problem is
with the large families. They have low
income and are in need of three or four
bedroom homes.
Mrs. Willa Basten employed by Oper-
ation New View, stated that housing for
larger families is vitally needed.
Some discussion was had relative to
reducing the number of requested units
from 48 to say twenty four or thirty. It
was finally decided not to go that route
at the present time but rather stick to
the original request of 48 units.
Mayor Pro Tem Brady requested a
motion from the Council relative to the
adoption of the various resolutions pre-
sented. The Council failed to respond
that the matter of application for
preliminary loan for low -rent public
housing, at this particular time, was
considered mute.

Special Session, June 20, 1977
June 10, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and City Council
On the 31st day of December, 1975,
Dolores Schueller commenced an action
in District Court in and for Dubuque
County, Iowa claiming damages in the
amount of $11,174.32 for injuries al-
legedly received on July 1, 1975 claiming
a defective condition on the sidewalk on
the southwest corner of 21 st and White
Streets in the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
Said action was referred to the City
Attorney for defense and that the ap-
propriate defenses have been asserted
thereto and that thereafter, the plaintiff
made an offer of settlement in the
amount of $906.66.
That the said plaintiff suffered alleged
loss of wages in the amount of $680.00
and incurred hospital and medical ex-
penses as well as incurring home care
expenses.
The negotiations to conclude sett-
lement of this matter have been delayed
through no fault of the City Attorney's
office but rather through the fact that
Blue Cross and Blue Shield had asserted
subrogation claim against the City
which was filed on November 25, 1975. It
is the recommendation of the City At-
torney that said offer of settlement be
accepted and that the City Auditor be
instructed to draw warrant payable to
the claimant, Dolores Schueller, and
transmit the same to the City Attorney
for delivery upon receipt of duly ex-
ecuted releases and dismissal with
prejudice of said cause.

Honorable Mayor

The City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has reviewed the
attached communication of Mr. Thomas
Rawson, 2310 Knob Hill Drive,
Dubuque, Iowa, wherein he stated his
opposition to a proposed street, shown
as Lot 15 of Block 2 in "Birch Acres" on
the attached map. Mr. Rawson contends
that the location of the street directly
across Fremont Avenue from his re-
sidence will diminish the value of the
property, and asks that the street access
to the "Birch Acres" property be re-
located to intersect Fremont on an
alignment with Knob Hill Drive.
In considering this matter the Com-
mission heard from the developer, Ed
Tschiggfrie, who explained that the
topography of the area had been the
primary factor in the development plan
for the "Birch Acres" property.
The Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion has voted to re -affirm their action
of April 26, 1977, at which time they
approved the final plat of Lots 1 through
Special Session, June 20, 1977
7 of Block 2 of "Birch Acres" which
dedicated Lot 15 of Block 2 as a public
street, and recommends your
concurrence.

Honorable Mayor
and Councilmen
The City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has held a public
hearing on the petition of Mr. Dennis
Baumhover requesting OR -I Office -Re-
sidential District reclassification on
Special Session, June 20, 1977 301
property described as Lot 1 of the Sub of
Lot I of Lot I of Lot 1 of Lot I of Lot 1 in
Clarence Polfer Place and is located at
the northeast corner of the intersection
of Devon Drive and U.S. Highway 20, in
the City of Dubuque, Iowa. The proper-
ty, commonly recognized as the Moser
Inn, 2615 Dodge Street as shown on the
attached map, in presently classified as
a C-3 Arterial Business Commercial
District.
The communication of the attorney
representing Mrs. William Trenkle of 45
Devon Drive, and the petition of Mr.
Robert L. Schreiber bearing 18 signa-
tures of area property owners who op-
pose the rezoning request, are attached.
In considering the Baumhover
request, the Commission concluded that
the major objections to the OR -1 Of-
fice -Residential District classification,
as expressed by area residents, were to
the maximum building height of sixty
feet (60') and maximum lot coverage of
fifty percent (50%) which would be al-
lowed under that classification. The
Planning and Zoning Commission has
determined that the OR -1"a" Office
Residential District zone which
provides a lower allowable maximum
building height of thirty-five feet (35')
and a lower allowable maximum lot
coverage of thirty-five percent (35%)
would be the most appropriate clas-
sification for the subject property and
would be more compatible to the abut-
ting residential area.
The Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion has approved the OR-I"a" Office
Residential District classification on the
above described property and recom-
mends your favorable consideration.

Honorable Mayor
and City Council
The City of Dubuque has been ad-
vised that $1,818,000 has been allocated
as the targeted amount under the
second round of the Public Works Act.
We recommend the following
projects be updated as to costs and
resubmitted in the following order of
priority.
Targeted Amount .. 61,618.1810
Projects
Parking Ramp Addition $443.960
Greenhouse -Potting
House ... .. 191.525
Expansion of City Garage 243.029
17th Street Sturm Sewer 517.820
1.506.334
Balance ut Program .... 6 3.I A"
We have found it necessary to
eliminate the 4th Street Construction
Project from further consideration at
this time in view that the Iowa Depart-
ment of Transportation has not ap-
proved the project for participation in
the Federal Aid to Urban Systems pro-
gram as the final plans for the new
bridge, approaches, etc. have not been
fully resolved.
We would request your consideration
of the following projects to utilize the
remaining balance of $311.666. This
figure is subject to some refinement as
the above projects are updated.
Madison Street Steps ....... $250,000
Reconstruction of Flora Park
Tennis Courts ............ $ 50,000
We would suggest that the following
additional projects might be considered
at a later date in the event a favorable
bid is received on June 29 for construc-
tion of the Iowa Street Parking Ramp
Addition. Such a favorable bid would
reduce the $553,960 as listed above to
something less.
Sanitary Sewers (Edwards &
RET) ..................... $50.000
Boat Ramp ................. $40.000
10th Street Lighting ......... $11,000
Additionally, we believe the inclusion
of the 17th Street Storm Sewer Project
should perhaps be reconsidered in view
of its high cost to accomplish. The Pub-
lic Works Act as it is written may not
permit its withdrawal and the substitu-
tion of other projects in its place. In the
event such withdrawal is possible you
may wish to consider the following
projects.
City Hall Renovation ..... $100,000+
FDR Park Improvements .. $ 50.000
Marshall Park Improvements $ 50.E
Pedestrianway Construction
(Main Street -4th to 5th) . $150,000
Library Improvements .... $ 50,000
In order for the City to resubmit any
of the original projects or new projects,
it is necessary to provide the Federal
agency a listing of the projects in order
of priority at a total cost which is not to
exceed $1,818,000. This prioritizing we
would request be done onMonday
evening, June 20. In anyevent
submission and new submissions must
be received by the Federal agency no
later than July 15.
The attached resolutions authorize
the resubmission of the four projects
and the conductingonmental
will
assessments of new, projects.
also have available at the Monday
evening Council meeting, additional
resolutions for your adoption to auth-
orize the submission of new projects as
they are identified during the course of
the meeting.

Council met at 4:15 P.M. (C.D.T.)
Present — Mayor Stackis, Council-
men Brady, Pregler, Tully, Wertz-
berger. City Manager Gilbert D.
Chavenelle.
Mayor Stackis read the call and stated
that service thereof had been duly made
and this meeting is called for the pur-
pose of considering; A Resolution Auth-
orizing the Execution of an Agreement
with the C.M.ST.P. and P.R.R. Co. and
Iowa Dot for reconstruction of Railroad
crossings on 14th and 15 and 16th
streets and acting upon such other bu-
siness as may properly come before a
regular meeting of the Council.
June 24, 1977
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
The Iowa Department of Transporta-
tion is sponsoring a program of railroad
crossing improvements throughout
Iowa. The program is financed one-
third by the Department of Transporta-
tion, one-third by the respective rail-
road, and one third by the individual
City.
We would propose to reconstruct the
crossings at 14, 15th and 16th Streets
under the program. The Chicago, Mil-
waukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad
has two rails at these crossings, the
Chicago and Northwestern Transporta-
tion Company has three rails. We have
made application to 1DOT and the rail-
roads for their participation in the pro-
gram. We have received favorable re-
sponse from the Chicago Milwaukee,
however, it looks as if the Northwestern
will not be participating in the program.
The cost of the track reconstruction
at the three locations would be $85,206
the City's share being $28,402. This
would include the entire replacement of
the crossings with new rail, ties and
asphalt surfacing.
Since there is a July 1, 1977 cutoff on
the funding of the program, it is neces-
sary that the agreements be signed at
the June 29, 1977 Council Meeting.
I would recommend that we proceed
with the program as outlined.
Gilbert D. Chavenelle

the communication be received and

Company and the Iowa Department of
Transportation relating to the recon-

16th Street 15th Street and 14th Street.

Honorable Mayor

The Planning and Zoning Commis.
sion has considered requests of Ms. Pat
Klossner for an appropriate zoning
amendment to permit her to use
property at 2625 John F. Kennedy Road
for a beauty salon. This property is
presently within an OR -1 Office -Re-
sidential District and contains a single
family home lying immediately north of
the Power Lawn and Garden Equipment
establishment.
Ms. Klossner had requested either
that the property be reclassified to a
Commercial (C) District to nermit
beauty salon occupancy, or that the
uses permited in the OR -1 Office Re-
sidential District be expanded to in-
clude beauticians or cosmetologists.
The Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion has considered requests for com-
mercial zoining in that vicinity in 1969,
1971, and 1973. It has been consistently
held that expansion of commerical uses
at that location would be desirable, and
the request for such reclassification was
again ruled inappropriate.
The Commission has also considered
the proposal to expand the list of uses
permitted in the OR -1 District. It was
determined that any effort to expand
those uses to include beauticians or
cosmetologists would demand equal
consideration of the inclusion of other -
personal services, repair services, and
like uses, and that the existing OR-
I Districts were not well adapted to
a broadened range of uses because of
their proximity to low-density residen-
tial areas.
Therefore, the further consideration
of her request was denied on a split
decision. By this action, the Planning
and Zoning Commission has recom-
mended that you concur in the denial of
this petition.

The City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has reviewed the
Petition of Mr. Ronald L. Hixon
requesting the extension of an existing
Light Industrial District to include
property at 2512-14 Elm Street. The
property is presently within an R-3 Re-
sidential District and is described as Lot
1 of the Sub of Lots 48 and 49 in Bellevue
Addition; and Lot 72 in E. Langworthy's
Addition of part of Mineral Lot 320. Mr.
Hixon's petition was made on behalf of
the Dubuque Rifle and Pistol Club, Inc.
and was for purposes of establishing a
shooting range on a part of that
property.
It was noted that all of the properties
in the adjacent blocks contain re-
sidential structures. The Commission
determined that the introduction of a
nonresidential use would be contrary to
an otherwise stable pattern of residen-
tial use in the area. The Commission
also noted the petitioner's report that he
had been unable to obtain consistent
support for his proposal from adjacent
property owners.
Considering these factors, the City of
Dubuque Planning and Zoning Com-
misssion has voted unanimously that
the petition be denied on grounds that
the extension of the Light Industrial
District is inappropriate in that area. We
seek your approval of this
recommendation.

June 27, 1977
Honorable Mayor
and Councilmen
The City of Dubuque Planning and
Adjourned Regular Session, July 5, 1977 337
Zoning Commission held a public hear-
ing on the petition of C. P. Pfohl
requesting expansion of an exisiting C4
General Commercial District to include
propertv at the corner of 19th Street anr;
Washington Street as shown on u
attached vicinity map. In order to ac-
complish the expansion of an existing
C-4 Commercial District, the Commis-
sion found it necessary to include two
intervening properties located north of
the Pfohl property and these are also
shown upon the vicinity map. We have
attached a proposed form of ordinance
setting forth the legal descriptions of
these propert;es.
The petition had the support of a
representative of the Washington
Neighborhood Council and there were
no specific objections to the proposed
reclassification, although there were
persons present to voice their concern
for future zoning policies in this vicinity.
It was also noted that the Commission's
original recommendation on the Wa-
shington Street neighborhood petition
of 1968 had proposed that business areas
north of 18th Street should not have
been reclassified to residential use
because of commericlal concentration
already present in the commercial con-
centration already present in that area
and because the removal of conforming
use status of those businesses could
have been more damaging to the area
than their continuance. The Supreme
Court decision of 1969 had upheld the
view for most business properties north
of 18th Street but had omitted the Pfohl
property, as its owners were not plain-
tiffs in the appeal.
In view of these considerations, the
Planning and Zoning Commission has
recommended your approval of the
proposed reclassification.

cipal proceeds of the sale of said bonds
shall be devoted to and used with due
diligence for the completion of the

curred a substantial binding obligation
with respect to said facilities; said bind-
ing obligation comprising engineering
fees and contracts for :materials and for
the construction of the parking facilities
in the amount of not less than 21h% of
the estimated total cost of said facilities:
(2) The City Council expects that over
85% of the spendable proceeds of said

of said facilities, said date being within
three years following the date of issue of

cluding expenses incidental to such
purpose and to the issuance of the

belief of the City Council there are no
facts, estimates or circumstances that
would materially change the conclu.
sions and representations set out in this
section.
The City Council also certifies and
further covenants with the purchasers
and holders of said bonds from time to
time outstanding that so long as any of
said bonds remain outstanding, moneys
on deposit in any fund or account in
connection with said bonds, whether or
not such moneys were derived from the
proceeds of the sale of said bonds or
from any other sources, will not be used
in a manner which will cause such
bonds to be "arbitrage bonds" within
the meaning of Section 103(c) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as
amended, and any lawful regulations
promulgated or proposed thereunder,
including Sections 1.103-13 and 1.103-14
of the Income Tax Regulations (26 CFR
Part 1), as the same presently exist, or
may from time to time hereafter be
amended, supplemented or revised. The
City Council reserves the right, how-
ever, to make any investment of such
moneys permitted by state law if, when
and to the extent that said Section
103(c) or regulations promulgated ther-
eunder shall be repealed or re-
laxed or shall be held void by final
decision of a court of competent juris-
diction, but only if any investment made
by virtue of such repeal, relaxation or
decision would not, in the opinion of
counsel of recognized competence in
such matters, result in making the in-
terest on said bonds subject to federal
income taxation.

the bonds hereby authorized and ther-
eafter so long an any of said bonds or

Revenue Bonds Sinking Fund and the
Bond Reserve Fund in the amounts as
hereinafter provided.
Section T. That the provisions,
covenants, undertakings and stipula-
tions for the operation of the system of

eby ratified and confirmed, and all such
provisions shall insure and constitute
the security for the payment of the

however, that the amounts to be an-
nually set aside and paid into said

tional bonds shall be not less than as
follows:
A sum equal to one-tenth
(1 / 10th) of the principal of all bonds
maturing on the January 1 next
succeding plus a sum equal to
one-fifth (1/5th) of the interest
becoming due on the next succed-
ing interest payment date on all of
then outstanding bonds issued pur-
suant to this resolution and bonds
ranking on a parity therewith until
there has been accumulated in such
fund an amount equal to the full
amount of the next succeeding
principal payment and interest
payment on said then outstanding
bonds maturing in such year;
provided, however, that no further
payments need be made into said
Sinking Fund whenever and so long
as such amount of the bonds shall
have been retired that the amount
then held in such fund (including
the Bond Reserve Fund hereinafter
created) is sufficient to retire all
such outstanding bonds and pay
the entire amount of the interest
that will have accrued at the time of
such retirement.

tional bonds are hereafter issued by said

ed net off-street parking revenues and
net on -street parking revenues are in-
adequate to make any one or more
required monthly payments into the
Sinking Fund, the deficiency shall be
made up and paid as aforesaid from the
first available revenues thereafter
received and the same shall be in addi-
tion to payments otherwise provided to
be made in such succeeding month or
months. Said Sinking Fund shall be used
solely and only and is hereby pledged for

Session, July 5, 1977
eon, and there shall be charged such
rates and amounts as shall be adequate
to meet the requirements of this and the
preceding sections hereof.
Said City agrees that so long as any of
the bonds hereby authorized remain
outstanding it will keep proper books of
record and account, separate from all
other municipal records and accounts,
showing complete and correct entries of
all transactions relating to said public
motor vehicle parking facilities system,
and that the holders of any of said bonds
shall have the right at all reasonable
times to inspect the system and all
records, accounts and data of the City
relating thereto. A separate accounting
of the amount of income and revenues
from on -street parking facilities and the
off-street parking facilities, and also of
the amount of operation and mainten-
ance expenses for said facilities, respec-
tively, shall be kept and maintained.
Said City further agrees that it will
within sixty days following the close of
each fiscal year of the City cause an
audit to be made of the books and ac-
counts pertinent to the system'by an
independent certified public accountant
showing the receipts and disbursements
of said system with the comments of the
auditor concerning whether the books
and accounts are being kept in com-
pliance with this resolution and in ac-
cordance with recognized accounting
practices. All expenses incurred in
making such audits shall be paid as an
expense of operation and maintenance
of the system and a copy of each such
audit shall be promptly mailed to the
original purchasers from the City of the

other bondholder that may have

Section 13. That said City hereby
covenants and agrees with the holder or
holders of the bonds herein authorized
to be issued, or any of them, that it will
faithfully and punctually perform all
duties with reference to said public
motor vehicle parking facilities system
required by the Constitution and lawsof
the State of Iowa, and this resolution,
including the making and collecting of
reasonable and sufficient rates for ser-
vices afforded thereby, and will se-
gregate the revenues and make ap-
plication thereof, into the respective
funds, as provided by this resolution.
The City further covenants and agrees
with the holders of said bonds to main.
tain in good condition and continuously
and efficiently operate said off-street
and on -street facilities and to charge
and collect such rates and charges for
Adjourned Regular Session, July 5, 1977 355
j services rendered thereby so that the
i aggregate net revenues therefrom will
be sufficient at all times to make the
prescribed payments into the several
special funds as hereinbefore provided.
The City further covenants and
agrees that so long as any of the bonds
authorized to be issued under the terms
of this resolution or bonds ranking on a
parity therewith are outstanding it will
not sell, lease, loan, mortgage or in any
manner dispose of or encumber said
public motor vehicle parking facilities
until all of said bonds have been paid in
full as to both principal and interest or
unless and until full and sufficient
provision shall have been made for the
payment thereof; provided, however,
the City may dispose of any property
constituting a part of the municipal
parking system which is found by re-
solution of the City Council to be no
longer useful or profitable in the opera-
tion of the system, but the proceeds of
any such sale shall be credited to the
Renewal and Improvement Fund as an
additional cretdit thereto. Nothing con-
tained in this resolution shall be con-
strued to prevent the City from leasing
to others or contracting with others for
the operation of any of the facilities,
constituting a part of the parking sys-
tem, to the extent permitted by law,
provided the net revenues derived from
any such leases or contracts, in com-
bination with all other net revenues of
the system, are found by the City
Council to be not less than those
required to be paid into the various
funds as hereinbefore provided. Nothing
contained in this resolution shall be
construed to prevent the City from dis-
posing by lease, or as may be permitted
by law, of the air rights above any of the
off-street parking facilities constituting
a part of the system, provided that the
revenues from any such lease shall be
treated as a part of the income and
revenues from the off-street parking
facilities of the system and shall be used
and applied as provided in this resolu-
tion, but no such lease may result in a
reduction of the aggregate net revenues
of the system below the amounts
necessary to be paid into the various
funds as hereinbefore provided.
While the bonds authorized her-
eunder, or any of them, remain out-
standing and unpaid no free service
shall be afforded by said public motor
vehicle parking facilities system,
provided, that the City Council may, by
resolution, authorize the use of a desig-
nated portion of the parking facilities
without charge, provided: (1) that the
Council must first affirmatively deter-
mine that such use will not cause the
aggregate net revenues then to be der-
ived from the balance of the system to
be less than 150% of the amounts
required to be paid into the Parking
Facilities Revenue Bonds Sinking Fund
during the then next succeeding fiscal
year, and (2) if the facilities to he oper-
ated without charge produced over 15%
of the gross revenues of the entire sys-
tem in the then last preceding fiscal
year, the finding by the City Council
must be predicated upon and supported
by a certificate executed by a reputable,
independent consulting engineer em-
ployed for the purpose of examining the
books and records pertinent to the sys-
tem and of certifying to the amount of
revenues which will be derived from the
balance of the system. Anv of the off-
street parking facilities may be with-
drawn from use at any time for the
purpose of erecting multiple level park-
ing structures, garages or other parking
facilities thereon which are to be incor-
porated in and made a part of the public
motor vehicle parking facilities system
of the City, but no such facilities may be
so withdrawn unless the City Council
affirmatively finds that the net revenues
to be derived from the operation of the
remainder of the system, together with
interest during the construction of the
additional structure will be not less than
those required to be paid into the sever-
al separate funds as hereinbefore
provided during the period of
constructions.
Said City agrees that it will take no
action in relation to its public motor
vehicle parking facilities which would
unfavorably effect the security of the
bonds herein authorized or bonds rank.
ing on a parity therewith or the prompt
payment of the principal thereof and
interest thereon, but nothing in this
resolution contained shall be construed
to prohibit appropriate changes in the
loacation of on -street parking facilities
made necessary by street widening, al-
terations or closings, nor prohibit sub-
stitution or changes in the location of
on -street parking meters in order to
provide essential and necessary traffic
regulation and control.
Section 14. Said City hereby coven-
ants and agrees so long as any bonds
hereby authorized are outstanding to
regularly retain from time to time and at
least once every three years the services
of some engineer or firm of engineers of
specialized reputation in the man-
agement and operation of motor vehicle
parking facilities (hereinafter some-
356
Regular Session, July 5, 1977
times referred to as the "consulting
engineer"). for the purpose of consul-
tation and cooperation in connection
with the operation and maintenance of
its public motor vehicle parking facili-
ties system and the establishment as
well as any subsequent revision of the
schedule of charges for the services and
facilities to be thereby afforded. An
annual budget of expenses of operation
and maintenance of the system shall be
prepared by the City Council covering
the anticipated monthly requirements
and expeditures for such operation and
maintenance during the ensuing year.
Fixed annual charges such as the cost of
insurance shall be set up and ac-
cumulated on a monthly basis. At least
sixty days prior to the beginning of such
ensuing fiscal year a copy of such
proposed annual budget shall be mailed
to any bondholder who may have
therefore requested the same. If the
holder or holders of five per cent or
more of the aggregate principal amount
of bonds then outstanding shall so
request at least thirty days prior to
commencement of the fiscal year the
City Council shall hold a public hearing
on such proposed annual budget, at
which hearing any bondholder and any
other person in interest may appear and
file written objections. If no objections
are filed as in this section permitted, said
City Council may adopt the proposed
budget as the annual budget for such
succeeding fiscal year, but if such ob-
jections are filed, said City Council shall
make every effort to satisfy same in
adopting a revised final budget. The
total expenditures in any fiscal year for
the account of the off-street parking
facilities and the on -street parking
facilities constituting parts of said pub.
lic motor vehicle parking facilities sys.
tem shall not exceed the respective
items as shown by the annual budget for
such year unless specifically authorized
by a two-thirds vote of said City
Council.
Section 15. That any holder of said
bonds, or of any of the coupons, may
either at law or in equity, by suit, action,
mandamus or other proceedings, en.

City and its officers and agents of all
duties imposed or required by law or

operation of said motor vehicle parking
facilities, including the making and col.
lecting of sufficient rates and segrega-
tion of the revenues and application
thereof.

It may be necessary to apply $553.960
of General Revenue Sharing funds
toward the construction cost of the
Iowa Street Parking Ramp Addition.
This proposed expenditure will require
an amendment of the city's adopted
budget for the fiscal year beginning July
1.
The federal regulations governing the
use of revenue sharing funds require
that a public hearing be held. The state
also required a public hearing on the
budget amendment, and both the state
and federal requirements can be satis-
fied with a single hearing.
The attached resolutions authorize
the publishing of notices for the hearing
if it is determined to be necessary to use
revenue sharing funds in this manner.
We would request your adoption of

Honorable Mayor

The Federal Highway Administration
and Iowa Department of Transportation
have authorized the City of Dubuque to
proceed with protective acquisition
with a portion of the Siegert farm for
right-of-way for the Northwest Arterial.
This property lies immediately adjacent
to the westerly Dubuque city limits and
is shown upon the attached vicinity
map.
The Iowa Department of Transporta-
tion has more recently authorized the
use of Federal Aid to Urban System
Funds in this acquisition project. This
funding arrangement will provide for
70% federal cost sharing in the acquisi-
tion. We had formerly anticipated that
this project would be strictly a local
responsibility.
In order to qualify this project for
federal assistance, however, it is neces-
sary that the acquisition be undertaken
by a federally -certified right-of-way
agent. At this time only the Iowa
Department of Transportation has such
certification.
The Right -of -Way Department of the
Iowa Department of Transportation has
agreed to undertake the acquisition of a
portion of the Siegert farm on our
behalf. Their administration of the
project requires authorization by the
C itv of Dubuque, and we have attached
a proposed project agreement for this
purpose. The agreement contains a forth
of resolution for Council adoption,
authorizing the Mayor to act on behalf
of the City in the endorsement of this
participation agreement. We respect-
fully request your approval of the at-
tached Resolution and Project
Agreement.

Honorable Mayor
and City Council
The Department of Housing and Ur-
ban Development has announced the
availability of additional contract auth-
ority for Section 8 Existing Housing
units.
You may recall that the City of
Dubuque had executed a prior contract
under thy+ program on March 5, 1976,
providing for assistance in not more
than 249 existing housing units. As the
lease -up period of this program draws to
a close. we are pleased to announce that
rent assitance contracts are in force for
nearly the full complement of author-
ized units. However, our experience so
far indicates a continuing need for as-
sistance in this program.
As we prepared the Housing Assis-
tance Plan for our FY 1978 Community
Development Block Grant, we had de-
termined that there was an immediate
need for assistance to an additional 100
dwelling units in the Section 8 Existing
Housing program in that fiscal year. In
response to HUD's recent announ-
cement of available contract authority,
we propose to now make application for
those addiuunal units.
We have attached two resolutions
establishing our application for an ad-
ditional 100 units in the Section 8 Exist-
ing Housing program. The Dubuque
Housing Commission respectfully
requests your favorable consideration
of these resolutions.

We recommend your favorable con-
sideration of the Association's request

the effort.

Honorable Mayor and
City Council
I would request your consideration in
the matter of acquisition of the Trenkle
property for the purpose of housing city
government and for future develop-
ment. I am desirous of the Council's
input and response on the matter. The
urgency for this stems from the im-
pending sale of the property to a private
developer.
Former Mayor Al Lundh has been
assisting me with development of this
project and will attend the Council
meeting to explain the options
available.

Honorable Mayor and July 12, 1977
Members of the City Council
It is my understanding that you have
received correspondence from Mr.
Arthur J. Roth, Jr., City Health Director,
pertinent to the possible appointment of
a Medical Consultant for the Cite
Health Department
Dr. Edward Scott, M D is a practicing
physician in Dubuque with Medical As-
sociates. He is 34 years of age and a
Vietnam veteran of the U.S Medical
Service. Dr. Scott received his medical
school training at the University of
Iowa, and in 1974 received his Master of
Public Health degree in epidemiology
from Harvard University. Dr. Scott is
very interested in the public health
aspects of medicine and has the permis-
sion of Medical Associates to assume
this position if tendered.
It is by belief that his training and
interest in public health would be a
valuable asset to the City Health
Department and to the City of Dubuque.
I would therefore recommend that Dr.
Scott be employed as Medical
Consultant.

June 27,1977
Honorable Mayor
and Councilmen
We herewith transmit the proposed
plat of Lots 1 and 2 of Lot 2 of 2 of
2 of Asbury Springs Subdivision No. I.
The plat proposes to divide one narrow
lot fronting on Hillcrest Road into two
lots as shown on the attached map. The
Commission and Council have wit-
nessed similar plats adjoining this
property which, like the present plat,
have been made for purposes of server-
ing the ownership of front and rear
portions of large lots each containing a
separate four•plex residential structure.
The properties in question were placed
to the R-4 Multiple•Residence District in
anticipation of the establishment of a
Planned Unit Development on the en,
tire porperty. Rather than erect a single
planned development, the former
owners had received approval to sub-
divide the property into three separate
lots, each fronting on Hillcrest Road and
of sufficient dimension to contain two
four-plexes. Like the two prior plats, the
plat now before you seeks to re -sub,
divide the original lot so that each
388 Special Session, July 18, 1977
tour-plex may be held in separate
ownership.
As a condition of approval of the prior
plats, the approval Resolutions con-
tained provisions assuring access to the
interior lots similar to provisions re-
flected in Planned Unit Development
agreements. With these agreements in
force, the Commission, in this case, and
the City Council in prior cases have held
that a modification of the Subdivision
Regulations is permissible and that the
proposed lot -split could be allowed even
though the interior lots had no frontage
upon a public street. Therefore, the
Planning and Zoning Commission has
endorsed its approval upon the plat and
has recommended your acceptance of
the attached Resolution.

To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
With construction of the Five Flags
Civic Center it will be necessary for the
City to relocate a 20" water main and a
10" sanitary sewer line. These utility
lines are now located in the alley
between Main Street and Locust Street.
The estimated cost for these relocations
is $60,000.
Cost of the relocation of these lines is
not included in the Five Flags budget.
Since the lines are in the designated
urban renewal area and the im-
provements will be made in the urban
renewal section, the expenditure for the
relocations may be financed from Com-
munity Development funds.
Therefore, we would ask the Coun-
cil's concurrence in giving its author-

procedures for financing these im-
provements with Community Develop-
ment funds.

not included in the Five Flags budget.
Since the lines are in the designated
urban renewal area and the im.
provements will be made in the urban
renewal section, the expenditure for the
relocations may be financed from Com-
munity Development funds.
Therefore, we would ask the Coun-
cil's concurrence in giving its author-
ization to proceed with the necessary
procedures for financing these im-
provements with Community Develop-
ment funds.

Honorable Mayor and July ll, 1977
Members of City Council
At the regular Community Develop-
ment Commission meeting held on
Tuesday, June 28, 1977 staff submitted a
detailed report on the status of projects
authorized by City Council to be funded
with Block Grant Funds.
A matter of concern expressed by the
membership related to the Main Street
Lighting Program. While the Commis-
sion fully understands the ramifications
inherent in a lighting program such as is
to be undertaken, the Commission re-
spectfully asks that the Council take
definitive action to alleviate the condi-
tions as they now exist. It was felt that
continued decision-making delays will
further postpone a needed improvement
until next spring, thus inhibiting future
planning for the area in the interim.

Honorable Mayor

The City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has held a public
hearing on the petition of Mr. and Mrs.
T. Edwin Winders requesting expan-
sion of a C-4 General Commercial Dis-
trict to include property at 2114 White
Street and 2103 Jackson Street which is
presently classified as R.4 Residential
District. The property lies north of
East 21st Street between Jackson and
White Streets in the City of Dubuque.
Iowa.
In considering this matter, the Com-
mission determined that while the ex-
pansion of the CA zone to the White
Street property was justifiable they
concluded that continuing it to the
Jackson Street parcel would be an un-
necessary encroachment of commer
cial zoning into a residential area. The
Commission noted that though they had
no objection to the continued use of the
Jackson Street property as a parking
lot they wished to see it accomplished
by some other than Commercial Zoning
Classification.
The City Planning and Zoning Com-
mission has voted to approve the C4
General Commercial District classifica-
tion on the White Street property only
and recommends your favorable consid-
eration.

The City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has held a public
hearing on the petition of D. James and
Patricia Edwards requesting R-2 and
R-4 Residential District classification
on their property which was recently
annexed to the City of Dubuque. Iowa.
The Edwards' property lies south of
Kelly Lane and west of Edwards Road.
The Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion reviewed the preliminary plat of
the Edwards' property, to be known as
Patricia Anne Subdivision, as they con-
sidered the zoning classification propos
al, and concluded that some slight modi-
fications to the requested R4 District
parcel was in order and recommended
deleting a small portion of the request-
ed R-4 District at the extreme south
and adjusting other boundaries to con-
form with the approved preliminary
plat and those changes are reflected in
the attached Ordinance and on the at-
tached map.
The Commission has approved the re.
quest for R-2 and R-4 Residential Dis-
