John J. Kintzinger, Attorney
Dabuque, Iowa
Dear Sir:
Pursuant to your request we
have given attention to recently
enacted Senate Files 9 and 337 of
the 1949 Session of the General
Assembly of Iowa as applicable to ~
financing off-street parking facili-
ties by the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
The law contained under Chap-
ter 390 of the Code as amended
by Chapter 206 of the Laws of
1947 presented a law which was
questionable insofar as it included
ad valorem taxing powers. Section
5 of said Chapter 206 provided for
the levy of an ad valorem tax of
one half mill per annum upon cer-
tain types of real property within
a benefited district. Prior to the
1949 session of the General Assem-
bly of Iowa we had expressed the
opinion that the law was theoretic-
ally workable provided the ad val-
orem taxing provisions were dis-
regarded, and cities and towns
could issue revenue bonds for the
purpose of acquiring parking lots
or other off-street parking areas
which would be payable from the
net revenues of the parking lots
and areas, together with any sur-
plus income from parking meters,
but that the city could not effec-
tively agree to operate particular
street 1 i n e parking meters and
throughout the life of the revenue
bonds agree to realize any surplus
income therefrom.
This law has now been amended
by Senate File 9 so as to specify
the order of preferences for the
use and application of revenues
from the operation of street line
parking meters. It is provided by
said Senate File 9 that until such
time as there shall have been pro•
vided adequate parking lots or
other ofY-street parking areas in
any city or town operating park-
ing meters all revenues from the
operation of such parking meters
or other similar devices shall be
used and applied (1) to the pay
ment of the cost of acquisition
and installation of meters; (2) to
the payment of the cost of main-
enance and repairs of meters and
collection of meter taxes and the
enforcement of traffic laws in the
parking meter district; (3) to the
payment of the purchase and in-
stallation costs of other parking
or traffic control devices installed
on such portions of streets as are
equipped with parking meters, and
that it is only after supplying the
foregoing requirements that any
revenues from parking meters may
.be used fur the retirement of
revenue bonds. It is our opinion
that the ad valorem taxing powers
under this law are still question-
able and that any financing there-
under will need to be confined
entirely to the net revenues of the
off-street parking lots and areas
and any "available" surplus income
from street line parking meters.
By Senate File 337 an additional
subparagraph has been included
under Section 404.5 of the Code of
Iowa whereby an ad valorem tax
on all of the taxable property in
the municipality may be levied by
a city or town "whenever parking
lots shall have been authorized or
established" under the provisions
of Chaptor 200 of the Laws of
1947. The proceeds of this tax are
to constitute a "parking lot fund"
to be used to acquire or improve
real estate including the erectioq
or improvement oY buildings there-
on for the parking of vehicles and
for the payment of bonds and in-
terest thereon issued in anticipar
lion of the collection of such tax.
Only such portion of said tax is to
be used to pay such bonds as may
be necessary after the application
of all net returns available from
said parking lots or from parking
meters or both. Said Senate File
337 also amends Section 408.10 of
the Code of Iowa so as to enable
cities and towns to anticipate the
collection of the parking lot fund
through the issuance of ,bonds or
certificates in a manner similar to
the procedure followed for the
issuance of street improvement
fund bonds or certificates.
In conclusion it would appear
~'
Special Session, June loth, 1949 261
that Senate File 9 has not im-
proved the situation so far as
financing off-street parking lots be•
cause the net revenues from the
operation of parking meters will
be no longer. available to apply
directly toward the interest and
principal requirements of revenuo
bonds, but rather, the three items
hereinbefore mentioned will con-
stitute a prior charge on s u c h
revenues. The provisions of Senate
File 337 will be available, and
after a notice and hearing upon
the establishment of parking lots
as particularly outlined under Sec-
tion 2 of said Chapter 206 of the
Laws of 1947, each city and town
may provide for the levy of taxes
on all of the taxable property in
the municipality at an annual rate
not exceeding one-half mill and
may issue bonds or certificates
anticipating the collection thereof.
Such bonds or certificates would
of course .be chargeable against
the constitutional debt-incurring
power of the city.
You understand of course that
we have relied upon the uncerti•
fied copies of Senate Files 9 and
337 as referred to by you and
that these two new laws do-not
become effective or operative un-
til July 4, 1949. In considering
potential revenues from street line
parking meters it should be rec-
ognized that such meters are
theoretically justified only on the
basis of police power in the regula•
tion of traffic and not as a source
of revenue in excess of the cost of
operation thereof. There is some
discussion of this theory in the
decision by the Supreme Court of
Iowa cited as Brodkey vs. Sioux
City, 291 N.W. 171. i
Very truly yours,
Chapman and Cutler

City of Dubuque, Iowa
Gentlemen:
~ On June 6, 1949, a motion was

strutted to advise the Council as
to the ways and means to proceed.
Complying therewith, we have
made an investigation in the mat-
ter and recommend the following
procedure:
1, The Council should decide the
kind of grade separation, whether
over or under the tracks.
2. Plans and specifications to

3. An Ordinance should be adopt-
ed declaring a viaduct necessary
'for the safety and protection of
the public, and said ordinance will
provide for appraising, assessing
and determining the damages
which may be caused by reason
of the construction of the viaduct
and its approaches.
4, Then direct that the matter
be submitted to the Iowa State
Commerce Commission for exami-
nation and determination as to
public safety and convenience, and
approval of plans in accordance
with Chapter 387 of the 1946 Code
of Iowa which provides among
other things:
"387.2 *•• nor shall any viaduct
be required until the Iowa State
Commerce Commission shall, after
examination, determine the same
to be necessary for public safety
and convenience and the plans of
said viaduct, prepared as herein-

Mr. A. A. Rhomberg,
City Manager,
Dubuque, Iowa,
Dear Sir:
In accordance with your instruc-
tions there is hereby submitted
an outline of general traffic condi-
tions in the city and some specific
recommendations pointed to the
'remedy, together with some sug-
gestions relating to the betterment
of street use.
1948 TRAFFIC RECORD
During the calendar year of 1948
there was a total of 1,054 automo-
Special Session, June loth, 1949 26z
bile accidents which resulted in
deaths, 156 injuries, 69 of whicl
were serious ones, 911 cases o
property damage involving an esti
mated loss of $88,515.00. To im
prove such a situation simpil
means that a large proportion o'.
the men on the Police Depart
meat must be assigned to traffic
work.
TRAFFIC DIVISION
One of the most important
duties of a Police Department in
protecting life and property is the
handling of traffic. The. impor-
tance and character of such police
traffic control suggests the crew
tion of a separate traffic division.
The chief reasons for this are as
follows: A traffic division assures
attention to the problem in pro
portion to its importance. It is the
only means whereby the Chief of
Poliee can definitely place respon-
sibilityfor the satisfactory perform-
ance of this function. A traffic
division stimulates Polico interest
and activity in the traffic field. It
permits the development of a
proper spirit within a selected
group of officers with consequent
pride in the accomplishments and
the ability of the unit to cope with
the traffic situation. A traffic divi-
sion provides specialization which
promotes skill and ability. It devel•
ops and applies special techniques
and procedures including the ap-
plication of engineering principles
and educational activities. It as-
sures a police traffic program
which will be broad, well rounded
and effective. It coordinates and
increases the application of all
police efforts including those of
the non-traffic police. In our case
it would require more trained per-
sonnel. We are not a large city,
therefore over-specialization must
be guarded against. There would
have to be flexibility in assign-
ments to take care of momentary
needs and large special events.
A traffic division does, however,
merit consideration.
TRAFFIC SIGNS, PAINTINGS
AND SIGNALS
Good traffic signs, paintings,
markings and signals are essential
to orderly traffic control. Since
the Polico Department is consider-
ed the responsible authority for
the placement of signs and mark-
ings, it is suggested that the super-
vision of these matters .be under
the immediate direction of the
police administration. It is further
suggested that gradual replace-
ment and repainting program for
street signs be adopted, perhaps
on a three year schedule so that
by renovating one-third of all the
signs each year, they would be
kept in good useable condition at
all times.
The increase in use of the newly
created 12th Street boulevard in-
dicates the need for Stop and Go
lights at 12th and Main Streets
and their installation is hereby
recommended. The need for simi•
lar lights at 10th and Locust St.
and at 8th and Bluff Streets should
be investigated.
NARROW STREETS
It is suggested that considera-
tion be given to restricting park-
ing to one side only on those
streets having less than 30 feet in
width between curbs. An outstand-
ing example of a street needing
this type of parking restriction is
Merz Street from Windsor Avenue
to Althauser Street which is the
main approach to the Jefferson
Junior High School.
ONE WAY STREETS
There has been considerable dis•
cussion by the public on one way
streets. It is true that one way
streets do speed up traffic flaw
and consideration may be given to
this matter in congested areas. In
such consideration it is important
to have proper lighting on such
one way arteries. However, it is
recommended that no one way
streets be established until such
;ime as all of the present street
facilities are utilized to t h e i r
;reatest potentiality and all avail-
lble expedients are used, such as
elimination of some bus stops on
Viain St., having a central passen•
;er bus loading areas in the main
Business district or perhaps rout-
ng passenger buses one way on
Both Locust and Iowa Streets.
264 Special Session, June loth, 1949 ~I ~ Special Session, June loth, 1g4g z65
HIGHWAYS
The by-passing of State High-
ways away from congested areas
has proven a great aid in relieving
such congestion and merits con-
sideration. It is suggested that the
Iowa State Highway Commission
be contacted for the purpose of re-
routing U. S. Highway No. 52 and
61 off of Locust Street and to
traverse Central Avenue from 14th
Street south. This would expedite
the movement of traffic through
the Central Avenue and 14th St.
bottleneck and make unnecessary
the right and left hand turn s
presently required at that inter-
section.
TRUCKS
Common carrier trucks operat-
ing under franchises should be
made to stay on the marked high-
ways. Some restrictions should be
imposed on city deliveries made
with large semirtrailer trucks. It
is believed that restrictions should
also be imposed on deliveries in
the congested areas during rush
hours, this type aP restrictien to
include coal and fuel oil deliveries.
A mare careful planning of deliver-
ies on the part of suppliers would
aid in relieving congestion.
STOP INTERSECTIONS
Many requests are received from
well meaning citizens asking for
additional Stop intersections. It is
suggested that such Stop inter-
sections be established solely on
the basis of need, taking due ac-
count of previous accident records
at such locations.
OBSCURED VISUAL CONDI-
TIONS
Continued effort should be made
to trim trees so that overhanging
branches do not obscure stop signs
markings and signals. The stop
light at Jackson and East 14th
Streets and the stop signs on East
12th Street are locations that need
such tree trimming at the present
time. These are not the only locq•
lions where the growth of trees
obscures traffic markings. What
has been said of trees applies
with equal force to hedges. It is
suggested that pwblicity on the
matter of trimming hedges on the
corner properties be brought t o
the attention of property owners
and their cooperation solicited.
INTERSECTIONS
It is recommended that heavily
used intersectiena, particularly the
ones with Stop and Go signals
where there is a considerable turn-
ing movement right and left, be
marked so as to channel the traf•
fic. This will involve the taking
away of a number of parking
spaces even in the metered areas,
However, it is believed that no
single ,remedy will accomplish as
much in expediting traffic at the
present time at so small an expen-
diture of funds. Specifically it is
urged that channel lines be mark-
ed at 8th and Locust Streets, 6th
and Locust Streets and that 14th
with traffic lines on all four sides
of the intersection.
LEFT TURNS
The prohibition of left turns
during times of peak loads should
be considered in the interest of a
more free flow of traffic. The regu-
lations in force on 8th and Main
Streets serve as a good example
of what can be done.
SCHOOL ZONES
School zones should be clearly
designated with appropriate signs.
A replacement or repainting pro-
gram can ,be also applied to keep
them in the best possible condi-
tion.
INFORMATION
Printed pamphlets on traffic law
should be printed and provided to
the traveling public when request-
ed. This has been practiced by
the State and we are sure it will re-
sult in much good as an informed
public will react better to regula•
lion than the uninformed.
Automobile and traffic exact
their total in lives lost, injuries
and property damage sustained
and other intangible losses to our
community.
Respectfully submitted,
Jos. H. Strub,
Chief of Police.
After reviewing these matters
with the Chief of Police I concur
in his findings. The improvement
oP traffic conditions in general will
render it possible for the Fire
Department to more speedily and
safely perform its function.

Chief of Fire Department.

June 27, 1949,
Monorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa:
Gentlemen:
At a session of the City Council
of the City of Dubuque, Iowa held
on June 20, 1949 the following
motion was adopted.
That the verbal request of Mor-
ton Murphy asking that parking be
allowed on one side of the street
at the intersection of West 12th
and Grove Terrace be referred to
the Chief of Police for investiga-
tion and report.
I have made an investigation
and find that the East and West
sides of Grove Terrace from the
intersection of West 12th Street
and Grove Terrace is posted pro
hibiting parking at all times, to
the north line of Arltngton Street.
I cannot find this situation covered
by City Ordinance.
It is hereby recommended that
the East side of Grove Terrace
from the intersection of West
12th Street to the North line oY
Arlington Street be restricted from
parking at all times. It is also
recommended that parking be per-
mitted on the West side of Grove
Terrace from the intersection of
West 12th to the South line of
Arlington with the exception of
a safe distance from the corner of
Grove Terrace and Arlington Street
which can be painted yellow indi-
cating where no parking is desir-
able.
A specific recommendation has
been requested for Council consid•
Special Session, June 3oth, 1949 ~g3
eration with reference to the han-
dling of traffic at the intersections
of 17th Street and Central Ave.,
4 and at 1st and Main Street.
A traffic count indicates a close
approximation to the need for a
semi-actuated traffic signal, how-
ever it is my recommendation
that no change .be made so as not
to further impede the north and
south flow of vehicular traffic
row existant on Central Avenue,
s at the intersection of 17th Street.
At 1st and Main Streets it is my
recommendation that no change
be made. At 1st ani Mair. Streets
there has been considerable drive
ing at speeds too fast for condi•
lions present. We have directed
special effort toward this speed
condition and have brought to jus-
tice anumber of offenders. This
effort will continue.
Respectfully yours,
Jos. H. Strub,
Chief of Police.
Councilman Welu moved that
the recommendation of Chief of
Police Strub with reference t o
parking on Grove Terrace be ap•
proved and the proper proceedings
ordered prepared. Seconded by
Councilman Thompson. Carried by
the following vote:
Yeas -Mayor Wharton, Coun-
cilmen Russo, Thompson, Van
Duelman, Welu.
Nays -None.

cilmen Russo, Thompson, Van
Duelman, Welu.
