1'o the Honorable Mayor
and City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
The petition of Joseph Bartman
dated March 12, 1951, requesting
the installation of curb and gutter
and Street improvements on Argyle
Street from Lowther to Gcethe
St; eets was referred to the City
Engineer for the preparation of a
plat and schedule,
The Engineering Department has
carefully analyzed the field data
obtained and has arrived at the
following conclusions:
1. The improvement of Argyle
Street with curb and gutter for a
minimum width of 30 feet is
physically impossible due to the
great difference in elevation of
existing improvements from the
east to the west side of the street.
2. An attempt to set curb
grades which would allow access
to abutting property would result
is a lateral slope of from 2 to 3
feet in the street width.
3. The existing grades at the
intersection of Argyle, Lowther and
Sheridan are such that to improve
the drainage at the intersection,
Lowther and Sheridan Streets
would have to be redesigned for
some distance approaching the
intersection.
It is recommended, therefore,
that the improvement of Argyle
Street be deferred until such time
in the future that the difficulties
noted above may be resolved to
the satisfaction of the residents
of the area.
Respectfully submitted,
R. J. GALLAGHER,
City Engineer.
Councilman Welu moved that

To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council,
Dubuque, Iowa.
Gentlemen:
In line with the action of your
Honorable Body at a session of
City Council Feb. 23, 1951, when
you instructed, "That the Plan-
ning and Zoning Commission be
instructed to study the objections
raised to the proposed Tourist
Camp Trailer Control Ordinance
and also that the Planning and
Zoning Commission be authorized
to consider a proposed Tourist
Camp and Trailer Control Ordin-
ance in the light of the objections
presented and submit recommen-
dations and report back to the
City Council," the Planning and
Zoning Commission herewith pre•
serts it's report and recommenda-
tions in the form of attached pro-
posed amendments to The Zoning
Ordinance of the City of Dubuque.
The Commission feels that these
changes will provide protection
to the health, safety and welfare
of the users of trailers as well as
to the general public, encourage
the establishment of improved
facilities to the benefit of the in-
dustry as a whole. Treating this
problem by amendment to the
Zoning Ordinance has decided ad-
vantages insofar as existing facil-
ities for handling complaints
through the Board of Adjustment,
supervision and enforcement need
net be duplicated.
The Planning and Zoning Com-
mission respectfully recommends
tl~e adoption of this proposed re-
vision of the Zoning Ordinance of
the City of Dubuque.
Your truly,
Dubuque Planning and
Zoning Commission.
By Secretary
R. V. McKay.

action be deferred on the re-

Herewith are submitted pro-

of those which have become out-

Sincerely,

Gentlemen: On February 12,
1951, the claim of Leona Meggen-
berg, in the sum of $7,500.00 for
personal injuries sustained by her
when she fell on the South cross-
walk at the intersection of West
Third and Hill Street in Dubuque,
was filed with the City Clerk, and
subsequently referred to this office
for investigation and report.
An investigation was made and
from said investigation it developed
that claimant broke her leg as a
result of said fall and sustained
considerable damage as a result
thereof. A further investigation of
the place where she fell revealed
an icy condition of such serious
nature that it was deemed advis-
able to compromise and settle the
claim if possible.
After conferring with claimants
attorney, we have obtained an
agreement of settlement and com-
promise in the sum of $2,000.00
and recommend that said compro-
mise agreement be ratified and
that the Auditor be instructed to
draw a warrant in favor of Louis
F. Fautsch, Attorney for Leona
Meggenberg in the sum of $2,000.00
to be delivered to him upon the
execution of a release properly
executed by the claimant.
Respectfully submitted,
