March 4, 1977 Honorable Mayor and City Council The City Council has inquired about the use of the services of Mr. Steven B. Rynecki in labor negótiations. Mr. Steven Rynecki was consulted by me in the period January 13, 1977 through Fehruary 8, 1977. It was in this period that we were conducting exten- sive labor negotiations and preparing for fact finding hearings and had the urgent need for the knowledge of a person experienced in labor negotiations. Mr. Rynecki was asked to review all union demands and to research those demands that appeared to be nonman- datory negotiable issues as defined by the Public Employment Relations Act. Mr. Rynecki did research declaratory rulings of the Public Employment Rela- tions Board and provided us cases that were pertinent to the issues involved. His opinion was also requested on the appropriate strategy to he used by the city in conducting negotiations with the various unions. His ideas were solicited In the preparation of briefs to be used in fact finding. Mr. Rynecki reviewed with us briefs prepared for the fact finding hearing on February 8,1977 and advised us on the methods to be used in the presentation of our position to the fact finder In this hearing. Mr. Rynecki did not participate in any negotiations with city unions. He did not prepare amy material used by the city in fact finding or did he assist in preparation of material for the hearing with the Public EmploymentRelations Board on March 1, 1977. Members of the personnel department and myself met with him on four separate occasions January 24, February 5, February 7 and Fehruary 8. Mr. Ryencki has not been consulted by anyone in the personnel department or myself since the fact finding hearing on February 8, 1977. Expenses for his services were about $2,000.

J have attached a copy of Electrical Jnspector Alber's letter dated March i6. Gilbert D. Chavenelle City Manager March 8, 1977 Honorable Mayor and Councilmen The City of Dubuque Planning and Zoning Commission has revieWed the petition of the Powers Land Develop- ment Company which requested reclas- sification of 5 parcels of property. Four of the parcels are located in "Powers Place", an area bounded on the north by Asbury Road and on the west by John F. Kennedy Road. The fifth parcel is a portion of Mineral Lot 263, located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Judson Drive and Asbury Road. The location and the zoning reclassification request on each parcel is depicted on the attached map. The Commission has tabled action on Parcel I pending completion of the Kennedy Road report, and has scheduled a March 16, 1977, public hearing on Parcel 4 and will report their recommendations on those parcels to you at a later date. In considering the petitions, the Commission has made the following determinations: that the existing zoning classification on Parcel 2 and Parcel 3 are appropriate and that no useful purpose would be served by reclassification of those properties; that the request for OR-1a Office-Re- sidential District Classification on Par- cel 5 is substantially the same request that the Commission heard in January, 1976. In denying the 1976 request the Commission noted the impact that the range and intensity of uses in the OR-! District would have on the subject property and which might later apply to other vacant properties in the general vicinity. The Commission has found the pre- sent zoning classification on Parcels 2,3, and 5 to he appropriate and have voted to deny those requests.
