Iu re: Claim of Veda Kersch
Honorable Mayor and
City Council
City of Dubuque, Iowa
Gentlemen:
I have investigated the above
claim and find that on or about
January 13, 1946 Veda Kersch fell
while crossing at the intersection
of Julien Avenue with West Eighth
Street, at which place the crossing
was in a dangerous condition, being
covered with a layer of rough,
rounded ice and snow, at which time
sho broke her left ankle and other-
wise injured her nervous system,
causing her to lose time and to in-
cur expenses and obligations for
medical, nursing, surgical and hos-
pital treatment, for which she
claims damages in the sum of
$1000.00.
After investigation of this matter,
I have had several conferences with
her Attorney, Mr, R. P. Roedell, and
I am of the opinion that there is a
.jury question in this case. They
have now agreed to accept $100.00
in fii11 payment of their claim.
I reconunend that a warrant be
issued payable to Mr, R. P. Roedell,
Attorney for Veda Kersch in the
sum of $100.00 and that the same
he delivered to her upon delivery to
the City of a Release properly ex-
ecuted by Veda Kersch,
Yours truly
JOHN J, KINTZINGER,
City Solicitor,
Councilman Murphy moved that
the recoimendation of Gity Solici-
tor Kintzinger be approved and the
City Auditor instructed to draw a
warrant in the amount of $100.00 in
favor of Mr, R. P. Roedell, Attorney
fm• Veda Kersch, as settlement in
full of her claim, and that said war-
rant be delivered upon receipt by
the City of Dubuque of a properly
executed release. Seconded by Coun-

In re: Claim of Francis Ryder
Honorable Mayor and
City Council
City of Dubuque, Iowa
Gentlemen:
With reference to the claim of
Francis Ryder submitted to me
some time ago. I find that on Janu-
ary 4,1946, claimant, while crossing
Dodge Street at Grandview slipped
and fell on some rough, rounded ice
which was in a dangerous condition,
resulting in a fracture to her right
wrist causing her to employ a phy-
sician. That the doctor described
the fracture as "Fracture, commin-
uted, radius (rt) impacted and ex-
tending~ into joint." After talking
the matter over with claimant, she
has agreed to accept $86.00 in full
payment of her claim.
I ain of the opinion that this'
claim should be settled and there-
fore, recommend that a warrant be
drawn payable to her order for said
amount of $85.00 and delivered to
her upon delivery to the City of a
properly executed release,
Yours truly,

Code provides: "Whenever a person

That an applicant is a "widow

In re: Application of Frank Russo
Honorable Mayor and
City Council
City of Dubuque, Iowa
Gentlemen:
With reference to the application
of Frank Russo referred to me for
investigation and report, I find that
on May 31, 1881, Eugene E. Frith
and his wife conveyed to the City
of Dubuque by Warranty Deed:
Lat 2 of the Subdivision of Lot 3
of the Subdivision of Lot 1 of the
Subdivision of Lot 1Q in Kniest,
Guthrie & Brown's Subdivisioi in
Dubuque and we believe ordiuari•
ly referred to as Kniest's Subdi-
vision
aril that on July 2,1892 said Eugene
E. Frith and his wife conveyed the
same property to Prank Russo; that
Frank Russo, after the conveyance
to hinr, built a house on said preen-
ises and has been using and occu-
pying the same under color of title
ever since said time; that the City
of Dubuque did not take possession
of said real estate, but it appears
that the City of Dubuque did take
possession of Lot 2 of 1 of 10 which
is next adjoining the above de-
scribed premises to the south and
used said premises to build Lincoln
Avenue. That a Quit Claim Deed
should be made and executed by
the City to the applicant in order
to clear any cloud on the title be-
cause of the two deeds hereinbe•
fore referred to.
I recommend that the Mayor and
the Clerk of the City of Dubuque be
authorized to execute and deliver
said quit claim deed to Frank Rus-
so.

ty owners; that Carl J, Danglemey-

adjoining said lots on the south be-
longs to said property; that a quit

the respective owners, That plats

114arch 20, 1946.
To the Honorable Mayor and
City Council, Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
Because of the pronounced in-
crease in population of this muni-
cipality and the consequent lack
of housing, the Planing and Zon•
ing Conunission with the know-
ledge and approval of the City
Council has been studying the
problem of easing this shortage by
means of rezoning certain areas
now classified as two family dis-
tricts into multiple family dis-
tricts.
The Commission feels that cer•
taro districts now lend themselves
to this rezoning even when the
efect of such rezoning is consid-
ered over a long period of time.
The Commission respectfully calls
the Council's attention to the fact
that wholesale rezoning of large
areas in this period of crisis ap-
peax°s very desirable, but it will
actually work to the detriment of
the majority of the land owners a
very few years from now, and that
this hardship may not be relieved
for possibly another century. The
Commission will, however, cottr
time its study of rezoning and
recommend changes as rapidly as
dependable studies can be made.
The Planning and Zoning Com-
mission respectfully recommends
to the City Council the rezoning
from Two-Family Classification to
Multiple Patnily Clasification all
that area included in the Two-
Family Zoue bounded on the
southerly side by 22nd Street, otx
the easterly side by the Chiaag~o,
Great Western tracks, on the
northerly side by the City limits,
and the westerly side by a line
100 feet west of the westerly aide
of Central Avenue.
Yours truly,

NING AND ZONING
COMMISSION
