On June 26, the City Planning
and Zoning Commission held a
public hearing on a proposal to
amend the Zoning Ordinance to
include Block 22 of Key Knolls
Subdivision, in the area in which
professional offices would be a
peroùtted use.
The site is approximately 2
acres and lies on the east side
of Kennedy Road directly north
of the Hoover Elementary School
site. All access to the site is from
Kennedy Road. All private prop-
erty abutting this site is proposed
to be classified Multiple Residence
and the area across the street is
classified Business at the present
tIme.
No one was present at the
public hearing to speak in opposi-
tion to the proposal and no writ-
ten opposition was on file.
It is the recommendation of the
Planning and Zoning Commission
that the Zoning Ordinance be
amended to include the following
described properties and real es-
tate in Article lV, section 2(b);
Lot 1 of Lot 2 of the north-
east quarter of the southeast
quarter of section 21, town-
ship 89 north, range 2 east In

Respectfully submitted,

slon be approved and referred to

July 1, 1968
Honorable Mayor
and Council Members
Gentlemen;
On May 17, the City Planning
and Zoning Commission reviewed
a request to have property at
1375 Locust Street reclassified
from Multiple Residence to a Bus-
iness classification. This property
Is occupied by the Ryan Mansion.
The General Development Plan
envisions this area as a high.
density Multiple Residence area.
After. reviewing this request, It
was the opinion of the Commis-
sion that the Business District
should not be expanded to include
this area and to approve the re-
quest by Itself would be spot zon-
ing-
Following this action, a new
request was suboùtted by the
property owner asking that con-
sideration be given to peroùtting
the use of the restored house for
tours and a place for meetings
and dinners. This proposal was
considered at a meeting of the
Commission on June 26th. At that
meeting It was pointed out that
there are many buildings in the
City that have either historieal or
architectural significance and that
there Is a strong interest on the
part of many citizens to see that
these buildings are kept In tact.
Most of the homes that fall in
this category are in the Multiple
Family District. Many of them are
too large or are not desirable or
econooùcally feasible as a Single
Family Residence and historical
and architectural Interest may be
destroyed if they are converted
to Multiple Faoùly use. It was the
Regular Session, July 1, 1968
opinion of the Commission that
preservation of such buildings is
in the public interest.
At the present time, there Is
a provision in the Multiple Resi-
dence District Provisions that per-
oùts professional offices in certain
portions of this district. The area
in w hie h professional offices
wonld be pernùtted Is described
in the Ordinance. It was the opin-
ion of the Comnùssion that areas
in which professional 0 if ice s
would be permitted would also
be appropriate for USes such as
the applicant is interested in es-
tablishiog.
It is the recommendation of the
Commission tbat the Zoning Ordi-
nance he amended to include in
the Multiple Residence District
Provisions which permit profes-
sional offices in certain sections
to also include; structures with
historical or architectural signif-
icance may be used for museums,
tours, meeting rooms and private
dinner parties for which fees may
be charged. The Council will
adopt the resolution stating that
a building has historical or arehi-
teetnral significance prior to tbe
use being established.
It is the thought of the Com-
mission that the Council, in de-
teroùning whether a building has I
historical or architectural signif-
icance, could rely either on the
recommendation of the Historical
Society or on an appointed His-
torical and Architectural Advisory
Comnùttee.
It is the opinion of the Com-
nùasion that this amendment to
the Ordinance would be in the
best interests of the citizens of
Dubuque and that it would make
it possible to retain most of the
buildings with either historic or
architectural significance.
Respectfully suboùtted,

Petition of Fuerste & Carew and
Kintzinger and Kintzinger, attor-

al et al (473 residents) in and
around the Grandview Ave. area
objecting to the foul odor emanat-
ing from the blood drying plant
located in the south end of the City
presented and read.
Attorney Wm. Fuerste spoke in
behalf of the petitioners and in
his opening remarks he summed
up the situation in two words "it
stinks". The people who signed
the petition have been very pa-
tient during the six months that
the odor has been in existence. He
requested the enactment of an Ord-
inance on a breach of public peace.
This matter should be treated for
just what it is "a public offense".
It is definitely prohibited.
Attorney Russo in rebuttal to
Mr. Fuerste's argument stated that
in his opinion enactment of an
Ordinance would not solve the
problem, and he would be disposed
to seek injunctive relief.
Attorney AI Hughes spoke in be-
half of the owner Mr. Saul Green-
stein and Inland Molasses Co. by
stating that neither snggestion as
submitted by attorney Fuerste and
attorney Russo is attractive. This
blood drying plant has been de-
signed to be absolutely odor free.
He requested that the petitioners
bear with the owners of the plant
because they are working feverish-
ly trying to get the plant on a one
hundred percent odor-free opera-
tion. They definitely have no in.
tention of eoùtting odors at any
time and are going through con-
siderable expense to have the situa-
tion corrected as soon as possible.
Mayor McCauley moved that the
petition of objection be referred
to the City Solicitor for his recom-
mendation and report. Seconded by
Councilman Pregler. Carried by
the following vote;

July 22, 1968
To the Honorable Mayor
And City Council
Gentlemen;
In accordance with the Code of
Iowa, 1962, Chapter 363 C. 7, para-
graph 16, I suboùt to you the bnd-
get recommendation for the year
1989.
The total expense requirement is
$11,434,172.00. It can be financed
with a tax rate of 39.2564 rills
levied on an estimated $93,590,-
730.00 value of property subject to
the property taL
Special Session, July 22, 1968
Compared to 1968 the pertinent 2) Pay raises;
figures are: a) Earned longevity

2) The property tax levy 1969; $ 37,097.31
increase is; ................$ 56,345.00 b) A general pay
3) The decreased assessed raise: 141,492.00
valuation is; ................$221,816.00 -
Further, the increase in tax rate $178,589.31
is due to:
1) Increased City cost of
employees retire-
ment ............................0.2142 Mills
2) Increased principal and
interest payments;
a) Repayment of State loan,
1967 Flood: 0.9937-
b) Decrease in all other debt
payments: .(1.5281.
0-4656 Mills
3) All other expense
for 1969 ......................0.0136 Mills
0.6934 Mills
It should he understood, how-
ever, that the budget recommenda-
tion does not reflect the cost of
the sewage plant expansion, the
new airport teroùnal building and
the halance of the 1967 Flood dis-
aster expense. It is intended to fl.
nance the cost of these projects
by selling bonds. U this be so, then
the tax rate will be increased an
estimated 1.7079 Mills.
This means that the owner of an
average house assessed at $4,000.00
will pay an increased tax over 1968
of $).61. Namely;
1) Increased cost of em-
ployees retirement ............$ 0.86
2) Payments on past debt
plus sewage plant, air.
port terminal and 1967
flood disaster ......................$ 8.69
3) All other city operations ..$ 0.06
$ 9.61
The law requires, that the inter-
est free loan made by the State to
Cover the 1967 flood disaster ex-
pense be repaid at a tax rate of
one mill per year. Consequently,
$93,000.00 has been provided in the
budget to make this repayment.
The budget recommendation in-
cludes $3,611,526.00 for salaries and
wages. This is an increase of $227,-
004.93 Over the amount provided
for 1968. The increase Is recom-
mended in order to provide:
1) Wages for new
employees ..................$ 48,415.62
399
$227,004.93
The general pay raise is equiva-
lent to approximatelY 4.2% in-
crease for each employee. It is
understood and correct that pay
changes be discussed with em-
ployee representative groups be-
fore making the budget recom-
mendation. This year, however, the
representatives suboùtted their pro-
posals, preliminary talks were held
but the budget recommendation has
not been discussed- The fact is, the
Manager's Office did not deter.
oùne the amount of money avail-
able for pay raises until the night
of JulY 18th. Both the management
and the union representatives wish
to make the City Couneil aware of
the situation and to indicate that
meetings will be resumed imme-
diatelY.
The 1989 budget recommenda-
tion is good in that it provides all
of the current services for Dubuque
citizens, in spite of rising costs,
plus additions such as, more storm
drains, more library books, more
law enforcement and more recrea-
tion. To do this, however, it was
necessary to make USe of all of the
anticipated income and to write a
budget proposal within $5,000.00 of
the 30 Mill statutory tax limit. This
means that more cannot be done
unless the 30 Mill limit is elioù-
nated or otber sources of income
are made available. Here are a few
necessary items which had to be
eliminated in order to come within
the 30 mill lioùt.
1) A fire ladder truck ..$ 55,000.00
2) An ambulance """""" 12,000.00
3) Cutting down 1500 or
