Angust 5, 1974
To the Honorable May{)r and
City Council
Attached isa matching resolu-
tion for the communications cen-
ter in which the City of Dubuque
resolves to provide $9,182.75 10
the calendar year 1974 'as match-
ing funds in relation to funds pro-
vided by the Iowa Crime Commis-
sion.
This is an amendment to a
matching resolution passed by the
City Council on June 5, 1974 in
the amount of $12,123. Attached
is a copy of the grant application
that was approved on June 5, 1974.
Since ,that time the Iowa Crime
Commission, in working with our
consultants, has recommended that
the county install a high frequency
mobile units and a base station
now rather than waiting for Phase
II for the installation of this equip-
ment. As a result o,f this recom-
mendation the amount of money
spent On the county equipment
will increase by 'about $13,000 and
there will be a corresponding de-
crease In the amount spent on
city communication equipment.
Consequently, there is a ,total
grant applicOJtion of $96,985.00.
The county share will increase
from $12,123.12 to $15,063.50 and
the city share will decrease from
$12,123.13 to $9,182.75.
ln order that proper papers can
be filed with the Iowa Crime Com-
mission on our communications
grant, you are requested to ap-
prove the alitached matching reso-
lution for $9,182.75. This resolu-
tion will nu1lify the resolution
pa..ed on June 5, 1974 for
$12,123.13.

To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
We are writing to advise you
that it is necessary to proceed with
the reoonstructi<>n of the steel
tr..h racks on the inlet channels
of the flood pumps along Kerper
Boulevard near 16th Street.
The existing trash racks were
damaged beyond repair during the
Special Session, August 12, 1974
425
emergency flood pumping at high
river levels in the latter part of
June. The damage resulted fr<>m
the rem<>val of an algae growth
which was clogging the pump in-
takes and prevented the pumping
of storm runoff building up in
the detension basin.
Bids for the reconstruction of
the racks were solicited fr<>m both
local steel fabricating firms. The
low bid was submitted by the
E. J. Voggenthaler Company in
the amount of $6,186.00.
A purchase order for the repair
is being issued to Voggenthaler. It
is imperative the racks be fab-
ricated and reinstalled this fall
to be certain this pumping facility
is operable as quickly as possible.
The project is being financed

4. Require the purchase of flood
insurance by property owners who
are being assisted by Federal pro-
grams or by Federally supervised,
regulated or insured agencies or
institutions in the acquisition or
improvement of land or facilities
located or to be located in identi-
fied areas having special flood
hazards.
You will note in the purposes
of the Act that there will be iden-
tification of flood prone areas.
This identification of the flood
prone areas is to be determined
by the Federal Insurance Admin-
istration of the Department of
Housing and Urban Development.
Under the previous Act a map
was prepared for the City of Du-
buque, and was dated May 15,
1970. This map identified areas
that were prone to flooding prior
to construction of the floodwall
and previously included all areas
that were flooded in 1965.
I have had numerous telephone
conversations and have submitted
written information to the Federal
Insurance Administration request-
ing that they review Dubuque in
light of us now having a floodwall
and to reidentify the flood prone
areas.
Attached is a letter dated August
5, 19i4 that I have received rela-
tive to my oral and written com-
munications. You will note in this
letter that the flood insurance map
is being revised. I am told that
this revised map should be avail-
able to us by October 1. Under
the provisions of the Act there is
a 90 day appeal period in which
either the City or citizens may ap-
peal the determination made by
the Federal Insurance Administra-
tion. At the end of this 90 day
period the Federal Insurance Ad-
ministration will evaluate input
data from the communications re-
ceived and make a final determi-
nation on the flood prone areas
.hat are subject to flood insurance.
As I receive more information
from the Federallnsurance Admin-
istration, I shall keep you in-
formed.

August 23, 1974
Honorable Mayor and
Councilmen
The City of Dubuque Planning
and Zoning Commission has held a
public hearing on its proposal to
remove the Local Business "A"
zoning district classification from
properties in the vicinity of Ohio
Street, Drexel Avenue, Chaney
Road and Bristol Drive at their
intersection with Pennsylvania Av-
enue, and to classify such proper-
ties in the Multiple Residence
zone. The properties so considered
are described as follows:
Lots 1, 2, and 3 of Block 5 of
Rolling Ridge Subdivision No.2
(Joseph and Caroline Sandman);
The west 40 feet of Lot 410 of
Lennox Addition (Margaret Casey
(life estate) and Donald and Dar,
lene Christ);
The East 70 feet of Lot 410, and
North 'h of Lot 409 all in Lennox
Addition (Donald and Darlene
Christ);
Lot 408 and the South 'h of Lot
409 all in Lennox Addition (Vin-
cent and Phyllis Remake!);
Lot 3 of Block 1 of Mettal-Brooks
Addition (Arthur Witherall);
Special Session, August 26, 1974
443
Lots 1 and 2 of Block 1 of
Mettel-Brooks Addition (Thomas
Voelker and Thomas Luksetich);
Lot 2 of Lot 1 of Lot 1; Lot 1
of Lot 1 of Lot 1; and Lot 2 of Lot
1, all in Block 1 of St. Anne's Sub.
division (Angelo and Anna Kerper).
AI] above described property lo-
cated in the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
The Commission undertook con-
sideration of this matter at the
request of owner's of adjacent
residential property. Their peti-
tions, although addressed to the
Council, were received by the Com-
mission and are herewith transmit-
ted for your review.
In its initial work on a proposed
new zoning map in 1970 and 1971,
the Commission had determined
that commercial zoning in this area
was no longer appropriate in view
of the oharacter and extent of
residential use on adjoining prop-
erties. The Commission has elected
to pursue such an amendment at
this time in deference to the re-
quest of neighborhood residents.
The Commission has unanimous-
ly reaffirmed its earlier decision to
remove the Local Business classi-
fication from the properties de-
scribed above, and has further
recommended that the Multiple
Residence classification is more ap-
propriate for future development
in this area.
You should also note that the
petitions of Margaret A. Brewer
and 42 ()ther residents of Chaney
Road had requested that a portion
of the subject area known as the
Kerper property, be reclassified
to the Single Family Residence
District. In a separate but related
motion, the Commission has recom-
mended that this petition be de-
nied.

August 23, 1974
Honorable Mayor and
Councilmen
The City of Dubuque Planning
and Zoning Commission has re-
viewed the peti-tion of Mr. L. J.
Schiltz requesting reclassification
from Single Family Residence Dis-
trict to Multiple Residence District
property described as Lot 2-1-1.1 of
the East 'h of ¡he Southwest V. of
Section 21, Township 89 North,
Range 2 East of the 5th Principal
Meridian, in the City of Dubuque,
Iowa.
The Commission had considered
this same request at its meeeting
of May 22, 1974 and had conducted
a public hearing on it at its meet-
ing of June 19, 1974. At that time,
444
SpeciaJ Session, August 26, 1974
a quorum was present and It was
decided that the petition should
be denied. No official recommenda-
tion was transmiUed to the Coun-
cil insofar as the earlier action
had been initiated within the Plan-
niig and Zoning Commission. Mr.
Schiltz reported that his most re-
cent petition was made in hopes
of gaining reconsideration of the
request by Commission members
who had been absent at the prior
public hearing and who would have
been more familiar with the under,
standings that Mr. Sch'ltz feLt had
been reached with the Commission
at the time the Sunset Park No.3
Subdivision had been proposed.
The Commission has reviewed its
decision of June 19th and has
found no sufficient basis for ree<!O-
sideration of that earlier decision.
Tbe City of Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission has voted
unanimowly to swtain its recom-
mendation of June 19, 1974 that
the petition for Multiple Residence
classification on the subject pro¡>-
erty ,be denied.
