Seconded by Mayor Justmann. Carried by the following vote: Yeas --Mayor Justmann, Council- men Brady, Stackis, Thoms, Nays—None, Absent—Councilman Lundh, hHonorable Mayor a darcC ty2Coun On February 7, 1975, the D buque County Board of Superviso directed a communication to yo Honorable Body suggesting th the Dubuque Law Enforceme Center be turned over to t County -City Authority who woul then assume the responsbility fe the maintenance, upkeep repair "etc."" of the building, and also b responsible for the monthly oil ing to the City and County o their proportionate shares of ex penses necessary to facilitate the above mentioned items. Thicommunication from the Boards of Supervisors was referred to the City Attorney who has made an investigation of this matter and herewith submits his report. On the 12th day of June, 1972, the Dubuque County and the City of Dubuque entered into an agree- ment which provided that it would be for a period of twenty-five (25) years or until it was modified or abrogated by mutual consent of the County and City. That said contract further pro- vides that no separate legal entity is. created by said agreement but that said agreement establishes a joint -ownership and operation of the County -City Law Enforcement Center Building, under and pursu- ant to Sections 368.18 to 368.23 of Chapter 388 of the 1971 Code of Iowa, and that the building would be administered by the Board of Supervisors of the County and the City Council of the City. Contracrovidesthe her operaiont ndtmain enancethat of said t building shall be by the Board of a Supervisors and the cost of heat, f 75 ail u- rs ur at nt he d s, e 1- f light, water, and repair and jani- torial services shall be paid for by the County, who shall bill the City of Dubuque monthly for its share of same, and same shall be paid promptly, and that no repairs or renovations or changes in the com• pleted structure shall be made which costs are in excess of $500.00 without first securing the written consent of the City Manager of the City of Dubuque, Iowa. In examining the respective sta- tutes, I find no legal authority for the transfer of the contracted re- sponsibilities pursuant to statute to the County -City Authority. While it is true that the County - City Authority has broad statutory powers, those powers are framed within the definitive provisions of the statute, to -wit, Sections 368.54 to 368.73, inclusive, the joint effort of the County -City relating to the Law Enforcement Center was undertaken under the provisions of Section 368.18 to 368.23, inclusive. It is my opinion that while the respective. entities may have simi- lar duties and responsibilities, I find no legal authority for the interchangeability of the duties prescribed by statute relating to the County and to the City as being permitted to be assigned or assignable to the County -City Authority. I have communicated with the bonding attorneys for both the City and the County and the bond issue in connection with the Joint Law Enforcement Center, and they generally concur with this opinion to the specific end that they find no statutory authority which specifically authorizes the City and the County to turn over their tax money to an Authority, which would be the case in this instance. I believe that the City Council should also consider another facet to this case, and that is the fact that the agreement between the City and County was made a mat- ter of record prior to the election that was submitted to the elector- ate, and what repercussions from the electorate one may invite by varying from what has been tend- ered and represented to the oleo - orate is a matter of speculation nd yet should be some cause or concern 131 6P, 132 Regular Session, April 7, 1975 In conclusion therefore, in view of the fact that I find no statutory for such a move and in view of the fact that it is my opinion that any legal challenge to such a move could be successfully main- tained, I respectfully submit to your Honorable Body that you not approve such assignment. R. N. Russo City Attorney Councilman Thoms moved that the communication be received and filed and approved and Noti- fication of Action be sent to the County Board of Supervisors.

April 2, 1976 Honorable Mayor and Councilmen In accordance with your refer- ral of Councilman Thoms' letter of February 20, 1975, the Planning and Zoning Commission has con- sidered the suggestion for creating a panel to advise the Council in historical and architectural pres- ervation matters. The Commission agreed that the purpose of the Demolition Restraint Ordinance No. 7-75 would be pro- tected if its application were sub- ject to independent expert advice as Councilman Thorns has urged. The Councilman's letter made specific reference to the historical advisory commission established in in Charleston, South Carolina, and we have enclosed a copy of their specifications for the various areas of expertise to be represented on their commission. The Planning and Zoning Commission has also agreed that the role of a preserva- tion advisory panel might also be broadened to provide valuable in- put on other architectural and his- torical conservation matters. The Commission also felt strong- ly that the potential scope of In- volvement for an historical pres- ervation advisory group is not yet sufficiently well established to be formally constituted by local ordi- nance. It has recommended, as an alternative, that an ad hoc advisory panel be formed now and that Council stipulate a policy of con- sulting with this panel as appro- priate matters arise. We have at- tached a sample form of Resolu- tion should you find it desirable to officially articulate that policy. Under separate cover, we will submit a list of persons whom we know to have an interest in pres- ervation and whose various ex- pertise is consistent with the re- quirements of the Charleston, South Carolina ordinance.

Chavenelle City Manager Re: Finley Hospital Project We have been furnished with the final drafts of the proposed documents contained in the letter Lee Boye of Chapman and Cut- er dated April 5, 1975, and we of 1 144 Special Session, April 14, 1975 find that the suggestions and changes which we have made have been incorporated therein. The Trust Indenture on page 15 con- tains the maturities and interest rates which the bonds are to bear. We believe that these interest rates are in line with current mar- kets for comparable bonds. We have also been furnished by Wm. G. Ceas & Company a copy of their proposed contract of pur- chase which has been revised to ;conformwith our recommenda- tions, which principally eliminated the underwriter as the sole judge of market .conditions and other matters which might delay deliv- ery. We understand that this con- tract of purchase is being pre- sented to you for approval by the Council at its meeting April 14, 1975. The price will be $4,122,500 plus accrued interest. We have dis- cussed this price with the under- writer end have also compared it to prices for comparable bonds in this market. We believe the price is fair and will not affect the general mar- ket value or price of City of Du- buque direct obligations secured by either taxes or revenues of its utilities. Aside from that reserva- tion, the price is a matter of in- terest to the hospital and the under- writer only. It is our opinion that the City of Dubuque, by accepting the purchase contract and approv- ing the documents, will not jeop- ardize its credit and will have ac- complished its goal of improving one of its prominent local hospi- tals. We recommend that the docu- ments, as amended, and the pur- chase contract be approved, Paul D. Speer & Associates, Inc. Paul D.

Nays--None- Honorable Mayor April 10, 1975 and City Council You may recall that during your budget workshops the staff had proposed a consultant study of al- ternate corridor locations for the North-West Arterial roadway. The ,study was proposed to be a part of our Federal -aid Urban System program for this year, and is eli- gible for 70% cost sharing, with 30% local share to be made avail- able from our road use tax ap- portionment. The corridor location study, environmental impact state- ment and public hearing must be completed before final roadway design or roadway acquisition may commence. We have attached a Project Agreement, as presented by the Iowa Department of Transportation, which is to secure our mutual par- ticipation in the project. We rec- ommend that it be adopted and have attached a form of Resolution for this purpose. We also propose that the en- gineering firm of Brice, Petrides and Associates of Waterloo be se- lected as the consultant for this study. Representatives of the firm. will be in attendance at your meet- ing of Aril p14th and we would 146 Special Session, April 14, 1975 appreciate the opportunity to pre- sent them to you. We have also at- tached a Resolution instructing the City Manager and staff to prepare a suitable contract and scope of services, and which would author- ize us to negotiate the detailed terms of the study with the Iowa Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration. The contract documents, proposed study outline and cost estimates will be returned to you for review and adoption. The North-West Arterial will be our first project in the Federal- aid Urban System. This program presentsus with a new opportun- ity for further development of a comprehensively planned transpor- tation system. However, the time and procedural constraints of the program are a challenge to our ability to make effective use of these funds. If time permits, we would also like to discuss a two year strategy for program develop- ment and an outline of future projects. Gilbert D.

Honorable Mayor and City Council I attach a copy of "A Bill for an Ordinance Adopting a Code of Ethics for the Public Service of the City of Dubuque", which was submitted to you as a part of the minutes of the November 27th meeting of the Dubuque Advisory Commission.. It is my understanding that you may discuss the Code Monday eve- ning, April 21st. I believe it my duty to present to you the follow- ing comments: 1. The proposed Code does not seem to enhance the worth of municipal work and office. 2. The proposed Code is redund- ant. There already exist governing statute and oath of office. For April 18, 1975 157 example, Dubuque City officers solemnly swear to faithfully and impartially discharge all of the duties of office. 3. The procedure before a Board of Ethics, outlined in the Code, does not protect the rights of indi- vidual officers and employees. Several weeks ago Mr. Murray sent copies of the Code to the de- partment heads to give City em- ployees an opportunity to comment on the Ordinance. A limited num- ber of replies were received. Here, in briefed form, are some of the statements: .. I would object to: presenting my interpretation of the facts at issue in an open meeting. . Being guided by advisory opinion appears to mean unqual- ified acceptance. The difficulty with the Board of Ethics is an attorney member employed by the Council, a Per- sonnel Director member employed by the City Manager and a lack of confidentiality. .. I disagree strongly with the cloak of a Code of Ethics—they should simply refer to such legisla- tion as legislation for `Rules and Regulations." I feel that the City of Dubuque does not need this type of legislation. . Speaking as a department head, I have recognized that the public interest must be the pri- mary concern. This has always been our policy. These comments and statements are at variancewith the proposed Code. They are made, however, with a recognition of the work of the Advisory Commission and with an understanding of their Code purpose. Gilbert D.Chavenelle City Manager Mayor Justmann moved to RE- JECT the proposed "Code of Ethics" as submitted. Seconded by Councilman Brady. Carried by the following vote: Yeas—Mayor Justmann, Council- men Brady, Lundh, Thoms. Nays --Councilman Stackis.
