May I, 1970
Honorable Mayor and
Council Members
The City Planning and Zoning
Commission has reviewed a request
to have property at 2508 Roosevelt
reclassified from Single Family
Residence to Local Business "A"
District.
This Property is occupied by a
residential structure and is sur-
rounded by other residential struc-
tures. The General Development
proposes that this area remain resi-
dential.
Reclassification of this property
would be creating a new Commer-
cial DIstrict on the Zoning Map
and could be considered spot zon-
ÍIIg.

It is the recommendation of the
Commission that this request not

May 1, 1970
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
An act, known as Senate File
1197, relating to municipal court
clerks and bailiffs was enacted by
the Sixty-Third General Assembly
of the State of Iowa, and approved
by the Governor on April 13, 1970.
The primary purpose of this act
was to establish a maximum annual
salary for the above positions ef-
fective July 1, 1970, and transfer
further authority for salary con-
siderations after this date to the
City Council subject to the approv-
al of the Board of Supervisors.
However, because this act was
deemed to be of immediate impor-
tance it was stipulated to be in full
force and effect from and after its
publication in the Telegraph Her-
ald. This publication was accom-
plished on April 17, 1970.
The amount of salary increase
approved by the General Assembly
was $2,100.00 per annum.
In recognition of the merits of
a salary adjustment for these posi-
tions it is recommended by the city
manager that the monthly salary
of the court clerk be adjusted for
the remainder of the calendar year
1970 so as to reflect a gross
amount of $9,100.00 for the entire
calendar year of 1970; and that the
monthly salary of the court bailiff
be adjusted in a like manner so as
to reflect a gross amount of $8,800
for the calendar year 1970.
An interpretation from the City
Solicitor is on file in the city man.
ager's office indicating that these
salary adjustments are within the
scope of the intent of this act.
A copy of Senate File 1197 is at-
tached for your infonnatlon and
reference.
Respectfully,
Gilbert D. Chavenelle
City Manager
Councilman Bitter moved that
the communication be received and
filed and made a matter of record

proved. Seconded by Councilman

To the Honorable Mayor

I am returning to you a petition
for reactivating an alley running
west from the 1400 block of Glen
Oak and continuing north to Ver-
non Street. Also, I am returning a
petition for sealcoating Ridgeway.
Enclosed is a letter from Cletus

April 29, 1970
Honorable Mayor and City Council
I am returning to you the peti-
tion of Hillcrest Investment Inc.
for a stonn sewer through their
property.
I recommend that the petition be
denied due to the large city cost
involved in the sewer requested. I
believe that the best course of ac-
tion under the circumstances is
to leave the existing drainage way
open.
I am enclosing a letter from City
Engineer White dated April 23
which explains the details of the
situation.
Respectfully,
Gilbert D. Chavenelle

April 29, 1970
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
Please find attached letter to
Mr. Herbert Meyer, 391 Mountain
Lane, Dubuque, Iowa. In answer to
Mr. Meyers letter sent to the City
Council on the 6th of February,
1970 in relation to the condition of
Mountain Lane.
The letter explains how the
street was put on the assessment
program and had to be removed
due to the high cost and the fact
that the city only owned a 20 foot
right-of-way and therefore, would
have to purchase property. This
made the cost of the project in-
feasible. After detennining this,
the City Engineering staff met
with the City Street Commission-
er, Cletus Allen, and determined
that one way we could fix up the
street is to repair the base and
seal coat the street and also raise
the lower 8 feet of Mr. Meyers
drive 6 inches and filling in the
low area with stone and seal coat-
ing.
Respectfully submitted,
John L. White, P.E.

Regular Session, May 4, 1970
April 29, 1970
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
Please find attached letter sent
to Mr. James Hadiey explaining
what we have done in answer to
his letter that was sent to the City
Council dated January 31, 1970
and July 23, 1969.
The City Engineering staff re-
viewed the sewer situation, exam-
ined the stonn sewer, examined
the sanitary sewer and determined
that both sanitary and storm sew-
er needed cleaning. We, therefore,
cleaned out the sewer with a sewer
bucket machine to remove any set-
tled solids and also to detect any
irregularities in the sewer. The
City Street Department has done
some work on fixing up the catch
basins in the area.
Very truly yours,
John L. White, P.E.

Attorney C. J. May Attorney ad.
dressed the Council relative to
rezoning of 150' rather than 300'
as originally proposed by Mr.
Chew in West Side Manor Sub. by
stating that it is proposed to build
a gas station immediately south of
Shike Richardson building. The
property at the present time is an
eye sore and would like to have it
look good and presentable. The
property looks bad now due to ex-
cavation of dirt given to the City
at the time of the flood as this
area was the most accessible from
a hard surfaced road.
Attorney Hal Reynolds, repre-
senting the property owners in the
area, stated that it is just another
encroachment on Single Family
use in the area. Shike Richardson
was to be the end and now we have
this. The owner of the property
changed the contour of the land.
The land did not look this way in
the beginning. He is now asking
for Business "B" classification and
there is no way to zone with con-
ditions attached. When you zone
you zone period. If it was wrong
to rezone 300' it certainly is also
wrong to rezone 150'.
Mayor Meyers moved that the
rules be reimposed. Seconded by
