1965 May Council Proceedings

flood workers have gained the re.
spect and gratitude of thousands
of Dubuquers. No city government
staff anywhere in the United
States could better exemplify the
determination, dedication and
ability than John and all of his
flood staff and particular Clete and
Don Bandy. A very special thanka
on behalf of the citizenry to all
of you.
We are gratified to the county,
the state, the coast guard, the
Corps of Engineers and some of
our neighboring cities and towns
for the valued assistance which
they extended at a time when we
needed it most. To Ben O'Leary,
the service and social organiza.
tions, the schools and COllege ad-
ministrations for cOming thru with
special assistance. To the Nation-
al Guard and the radio and press
for their outstanding coverage. To
citizens like Frank Hanley, Scotty
Thompson, Hank Kieffer, John
Waltz and Louis Schaller who gave
so much of themselves when the
city needed the most. To the
earth moving contractors and the
around the clock truck drivers who
had a major part in saving what
we did of our city, and to the
police and fire department for the
invaluable contribution in contain.
ing the devastation of the flood
waters, also Art. Miller health
sanitarian and Doctor Hazlet, City
Health officer.
Again I know that I speak for
the entire council when I express
heartfelt gratitude for our Ameri.
can Youth of 1965. From many
states, youths ran to our assistance
and without them the battle would
have been lost. Their spirit was
as high in three in the morning
as it was at ten the next morning.
They outfiIIed the automatic sand
loading machine, making it obso-
lete. Their output of work was
matched only by their appetites.
Thanks to the news, the Red Cross,
Lt. Gooch of the Salvation Army
and the American Legion this im.
portant aspect was more than ade-
quately handled.

Mayor Horgan read the call and
stated that service thereof had
been duly made and this is the
Regular Monthly meeting called
for the purpose of acting upon
such business as may properly
come before the meeting.
Statement by Councilman
Peter J. Takos.
This body would be remiss if we
did not acknowledge the outstand-
ing leadership and capabilities ex-
hibited during our current flood
disaster.
Our regular form of City govern-
ment ceased with the Mayor's
emergency proclamation. The shift
was made so easily that few would
realize it's happening. Credit and
our profound thanks should go to
the Mayor for his dynamic per-
formance. Few councilmen in the
history of our City have been
called upon as was Mayor Bob, to
meet singlehandedIy a disaster
without parallel. His dedication,
decision making ability and lead-
ership have developed respect and
praise far from the borders of
our City. I know that I speak
for the entire council when I say
"Thanks, for a jOb well done."
To our City Manager we also
owe a special vote of thanks.
Though he remained behind the
scenes his presence was all over
the City. The real success in con-
taining the disaster was the deci-
sions that laid out the boundaries,
calling the timing and anticipating
the multitude of needs. This is
the time when a city gravely needs
top administrative talent and we
certainly had it-thanks to you
GiL
Regular
Like so many citizens I also
feel something should be done to
commemorate the effort and the
meeting of the challenge by our
youth. We are presently building
a multi-million parking ramp
Percentage wise, few Dubuquers
knew of Our engineers prior to
the flood except at street assess-
ment time or for routine aid or
complaints. Not so-any more.

Regular Session,
Again we should commend the
mayor and the staff for deciding
to go all out to help the victims
in the clean.up. We should leave
no stone unturned to obtain fed-
eral . and state aid for these citi-
zens. We must attempt to push
ahead of schedule the proposed sea
wall. . Whoever will be mayor next
year should dedicate his term to
this end. When the engineering
staff returns to normal operations
again, I am hopeful they will de-
velop interim flood plans to al-
leviate similar damage in the fu-
ture until the sea wall is COD-
structed.
The public must know that we
have worked hard to get the pro-
teetion of a sea wall, that we are
working now and will continue to
work until our city is totally ringed
with ample protection.
which will shortty he dedicated.
This ramp like our youth exem-
plifies promise of the future. Why
then, should we not name the
structure in honor of our Youth
'65 who saved our city from :iJl..
calculable damage? If this sugges-
tion does not meet the council's
approval I am amenable to sugges-
tions which would accomplish the
same purpose. Again I am certain
we all have the same basic feeling
in this regard.
As the Mayor aptly stated in his
news release we are sympathetic-
with .. those businesses and homes
who are suffering severe losses.

Again, to you mayor, city man-
ager, and John White, you have
done a job which makes us proud
to be Sitting here representing the
citizenry of Dubuque.
