While we originally talked about a Wednesday date, there was no space available from March through May except for one Wednesday at the Liaison for $419.00 plus tax per night. The Hyatt says they are booked 2 years in advance for dates in April and the first half of May each year and the Washington Court was sold out on all of the Wednesday dates we asked them about. Therefore, we decided to go back to a Monday meeting day. The group decided to schedule the trip for March 9-11, with all of our meetings and the reception on Monday, March 10. There will be no luncheon nor other functions on Tuesday. If you would still like to go to DC on Saturday or stay until Wednesday, we will be happy to include your request in our room block at the Washington Court Hotel. Our room rate will be $289.00 plus tax per night. As before, we will need to have commitments from all our members on how many rooms you will need for what nights. ACTION REQUESTED: How many room nights would your organization, city, school, whatever, be able to commit to now? Number of people: How many nights for each: Saturday, March 8 Sunday, March 9 Monday, March 10 Tuesday, March 11 Total Thanks for giving this priority attention, as we are getting a very late start this year. Please try to respond by Tuesday, July 30. I don't need names right now, just how many people from your organization and how many nights you can commit to for each of them at this time. As always, we will try to work with changes as the trip grows nearer, but these will be the commitments we will work from should we have to allocate any attrition penalties. Please let me know if you have questions or need more information. Thanks again. Steve TRAVEL REQUEST CITY OF WATERLOO FINANCE DEPT.

An Equal OpportunitylAffirmative Action Employer Waterloo, Iowa Complete Streets Policy The following elements shall constitute the Waterloo, Iowa Complete Streets Policy: 1. Sets a Vision This Complete Streets Policy incorporates the simple and basic concept that streets and roadways should be designed, constructed, and operated to be safe and accessible for all transportation users whether they are pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, vehicular motorists or trucks. Further, Complete Streets are designed to improve mobility and connectivity, improve health, increase safety, enhance neighborhoods, businesses, and institutions, and advance the quality of life for all Waterloo citizens and visitors. 2. Specifies all Users The City of Waterloo will ensure that the safety, access, and convenience of all users of the transportation system are accommodated in all future roadway projects, as defined in the Exceptions element of this Policy (#4 below), including: pedestrians (including persons with mobility aids), bicyclists, transit users, persons with disabilities, youth, seniors, scooter riders, motorcyclists, private motorists, commercial vehicle drivers, freight providers, emergency responders, and adjacent land uses. 3. All Projects (All New and Reconstruction Projects) Develop as many transportation improvement projects as possible in an affordable, balanced, responsible, and equitable way that accommodates and encourages travel by motorists, bicyclists, public transit vehicles and their passengers, and pedestrians. For the City of Waterloo, Complete Streets may be achieved through single projects or incrementally through a series of smaller improvements activities over time. Transportation improvements will include facilities and amenities that are recognized as contributing to Complete Streets, which may include street and sidewalk lighting; sidewalks and pedestrian safety improvements such as median refuges or crosswalk improvements; improvements that provide Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant accessibility; transit accommodations including improved pedestrian access to transit stops and bus shelters; bicycle accommodations including bicycle storage, bicycle parking, bicycle routes, shared -use lanes, wide travel lanes or bike lanes as appropriate; and street trees, boulevard landscaping, and street furniture. 4. Exceptions Exemptions to this Policy shall only be granted when the Complete Streets Advisory Committee, as authorized, defined, and established in the Implementation element of this Policy (#10 below), recommends, and the City Engineer and Planning and Programming Director concurs, and City Council determines that any of the following are evident: a. The project is occurring on a roadway where non -motorized use is prohibited by law; or b. A cost and/or health impact assessment demonstrates that the cost for a particular Complete Streets project would be excessive compared to the need, public health benefit, safety improvement and probable use of that particular street; or c. There is absence of use by all, except motorized road -users, that would continue in the future even if the street were a Complete Street; or d. An alternate facility has been previously programmed at that location; or e. A legal and/or regulatory impediment or constraint exists. Bicycle, pedestrian, and transit facilities shall be included in new street construction, re- construction, and other transportation improvement projects, except under one or more of the following conditions. Any condition approval shall follow the Implementation process outlined in the corresponding element in this Policy (#10 below). a. A project involves only ordinary maintenance activities designed to keep assets in serviceable condition, such as mowing, cleaning, sweeping, patching, joint repair, crack -filling, or pothole filing, or when interim measures are implemented on temporary detour or haul routes; b. There is insufficient space to safely accommodate new facilities, as determined by the Complete Streets Advisory Committee, Planning and Programming Director, City Engineer, and City Council; c. Where determined by the Complete Streets Advisory Committee, Planning and Programming Director, City Engineer, and City Council to have relatively high safety risks; d. Where the City Council exempts a project due to the excessive and disproportionate cost of establishing a bikeway, walkway or transit enhancement as part of a project; e. Where jointly determined by the Complete Streets Advisory Committee, City Engineer, Planning and Programming Director, and City Council that the construction is not practically feasible or cost effective because of significant or adverse environmental impacts to streams, floodplains, remnants of native vegetation, wetlands, steep slopes or other critical areas, or due to impacts on neighboring land uses, including impact from right-of-way acquisition. 5. Creates a Network The City of Waterloo recognizes the absolute necessity of promoting pedestrian, bicycle and public transportation network connectivity as an alternative to the automobile in order to provide transportation options and to protect all road users, reduce negative environmental impacts, promote healthy living, and advance the well-being of commuters. Furthermore, the City acknowledges that as public spaces, roads must be designed to afford safety and accessibility to all users. Finally, the City recognizes that the full integration of all modes of travel in the design of streets and highways will help increase the capacity and efficiency of the road network, hopefully reduce traffic congestion by improving mobility options, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and therefore improve the general quality of life. 6. Jurisdictional (Project) Application This Policy shall apply to all local and/or private development transportation improvement projects whether proposed and/or constructed by the City or private developer, unless specifically excluded through the Exceptions element of this Policy (#4 above). Federal and state transportation improvement projects shall be encouraged to consider inclusion of Complete Streets elements. 2 7. Design Criteria The design of new or reconstructed facilities should anticipate likely future demand for bicycling, walking and transit facilities and should not preclude the provision of future improvements. Said design criteria must be guided by national or state recognized standards (i.e. AASHTO, SUDAS, etc.) for the City of Waterloo. For example, under most circumstances bridges (which last for 75 years or more) should be built with sufficient width for safe bicycle and pedestrian use in anticipation of a future need for such facilities. The City will generally follow accepted or adopted design standards when implementing improvements intended to fulfill this Complete Streets policy but will consider innovative or non- traditional design options where a comparable level of safety for users is present. 8. Context Sensitivity It will be important to the success of the Complete Streets policy to ensure that the project development process includes early consideration of the land use and transportation context of the project, the identification of gaps or deficiencies in the network for various user groups that could be addressed by the project, and an assessment of the tradeoffs to balance the needs of all users. The context factors that should be given high priority include the following: a. Whether the corridor provides a primary access to a significant destination such as a community or regional park or recreational area, a school, a shopping / commercial area, or an employment center; b. Whether the corridor provides access across a natural or man-made barrier such as a river or freeway; c. Whether the corridor is in an area where a relatively high number of users of non -motorized transportation modes can be anticipated; d. Whether a road corridor provides important continuity or connectivity links for an existing trail network; or e. Whether nearby routes that provide a similar level of convenience and connectivity already exist. 9. Performance Measures The City of Waterloo shall develop, apply, and report on walking and bicycling transportation performance measures in order to evaluate the functioning of the non -motorized transportation system; to ensure consistency with current industry standards; to identify strengths, deficiencies and potential improvements; and to support development of new and innovative facilities and programs. Several factors shall be measured or used by the Complete Streets Advisory Committee, City Engineer, and Planning and Programming Director to evaluate the effectiveness of this Policy on an annual basis. However, the City recognizes that assessing the effectiveness of this Policy is a long-term process and that the community may not experience large scale improvements or be able to collect sufficient data during the initial two (2) years of the implementation of a Complete Streets project. The measures may include: a. Changes in traffic counts; b. Changes in transit system ridership; 3 c. Change in school transportation survey information (transportation to -and -from school); d. Changes in bicycle and pedestrian count data; and/or e. Other measures, which may include: miles of on -street bicycle routes; new linear feet of pedestrian sidewalks; number of new or reconstructed curb ramp; number of new or repainted crosswalks; number of new street trees planted; percentage of transit stops with shelters; change in Level of Service (LOS) measurement; customer satisfaction surveys; etc. 10. Implementation In order to ensure Implementation of this Policy, the City of Waterloo will create a Complete Streets Advisory Committee, which will provide recommendations to the City Engineer and Planning and Programming Director regarding implementation of this Policy. The City Engineer and Planning and Programming Director will then be responsible for providing formal recommendations to the Mayor and City Council for consideration. Membership on the Committee will be inter -departmental and inter -agency and will be subject to appointment by the Mayor and approval by the City Council. The Committee will include members of City's Engineering, Planning and Programming, Traffic, Community Development, Park and Recreation, and the Police and Fire Departments. The Committee may also include representatives from the Waterloo Blue Zones Policy Committee, representatives from the bicycling, trail, disabled, youth and elderly communities, governmental entities including the Iowa Northland Regional Council of Governments (INRCOG) and the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), and other advocacy agencies and organizations, as may be relevant. Within six (6) months of the passage of this Policy, the Committee will develop its own administrative guidelines (i.e. rules of procedure, operating or governing rules, bylaws, etc.) and will develop implementation strategies related to this Policy. This Committee will meet as needed, but not less than quarterly, and provide a written report to the City Council evaluating the City's progress regarding implementation of this Policy.

Head Signature:=---"� # of Attachments: ' SUBJECT: Request to extend the City Limits Urban Revitalization Area (CLURA) for an additional three years Submitted by: Noel Anderson, Community Planning & Development Director Recommended City Council Action: Approval Summary Statement: Transmitted herewith is a request to extend the CLURA for an additional three year timeframe, starting in July of 2014. As you may recall, the Grow Residential Opportunities in Waterloo (GROW) was put together to examine and brainstorm ways to get more housing to choose Waterloo. This group is comprised of local realtors, local developers, Waterloo Schools' representatives, landowners, financial institution staff, appraisers and planning staff. This committee has examined past and current housing trends, values of homes, and lots being created and available in the City, as well as reviewing what other communities have done to stimulate new housing. After review of the programs and need to try and stimulate more housing starts in Waterloo, the GROW Committee recommended a three year tax abatement on one and two family houses in Waterloo. The City Council voted to approve the CLURA in July of 2011 to allow for the three year tax abatement, and the program is set to expire in July of 2014. Since its beginning, a total of 119 units have been created. The overall trend of housing, previous to the CLURA, was a downward trend in FY 2007 of 42 single-family; 21 single-family in FY 2008, to 28 single-family in FY 2009. FY 2010, 2011 and 2012 are somewhat skewed by flood recovery activities, boosting the numbers upward to 38, 55, and 62. While some flood recovery remains, staff believes that FY 2012 was helped by the CLURA adoption, as well as the 45 units in FY 2013, and 28 to date in FY 2014. Staff has had conversations with multiple developers, land owners, home builders, and house buyers. The CLURA impact is a positive trend that is working to draw CITY WEBSITE: wwwci.waterloo.ia.us WE'RE WORKING FOR YOU! An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer attention to Waterloo lots, and hopefully to get new subdivisions platted and built in the near future. Therefore, staff would recommend approval of renewing the CLURA for an additional three year timeframe, beginning on July 18, 2014, and expiring July 18, 2017.

Summary Statement: The Police Department has planned and budgeted for purchasing an Electronic Document Management (EDM) system for a few years now. The department handles tens of thousands of documents a year and we were looking for a process that would allow electronic storage of those documents. We requested RFP's from vendors, and examined their work flow process software and hardware packages. After careful consideration we chose the Laserfiche program for its excellent work flow process, stringent encryption capabilities, and for its ease of use for our employees. We also talked with current users of this program, including our own Water Works department, who currently uses Laserfiche provided by Advanced Systems, Inc. All were supportive of Laserfiche. As a result we request approval to purchase and partner with the Water Works department on the Laserfiche software program to include an assurance and support agreement, along with supporting hardware for processing and storage of the electronic documents. Purchasing this program will increase the department's efficiency in handling, storage and retrieval of those important documents. Expenditure Required: Not to exceed $92,000.00 Source of Funds: Budgeted CIP and general revenue funds Policy Issue: None Alternative: None Background Information: The Police Department in 2009 requested RFP's and held a public hearing for EDM. The Police Department now has the budgeted funding, ability to purchase and begin the process of changing over to an Electronic Document Management system.

Summary Statement: This project was originally bid following the Iowa Code for projects greater than $25,000.00 that requires a public hearing. A public hearing was held on August 19, 2013. However, no bids were received. Two separate addendums were issued to reset the date of bid opening for September 9, 2013 and September 23, 2013. Again, no bids were received on either date. Additional field information was obtained to provide a more detailed design for potential bidders. The project cost was estimated at $22,000.00 and was bid again under the process of projects less than $25,000.00 as established by city policy. On November 25, 2013, one bid was received for $34,040.00. Due to the lack of bidders' interest and the aforementioned efforts that have been made, it is recommended the City Council waive the application of the bidding policy for project costs greater than $25,000.00 and award the bid to Vieth Construction Corporation for $34,040.00. Expenditure Required: Source of Funds: Policy Issue: Alternative: $34,040.00 Sanitary Fund N/A Background Information: These two sanitary sewer services currently are served by one pipe crossing under US 63. The services are shallow where they cross a drainageway and are above the flowline of an adjacent upstream culvert pipe under US 63. Therefore, the services need to be separated and the drainageway crossing eliminated.

SCHMITT The Final Plat consists of 5 lots, which will be developed into 5 single family homes. The At -Large Final Plat covers 1.4 acres and the lots range from 9,730 SF to 9,894 SF in size. Said lots would have a width of 80-81.5 Feet and depth of 121-122 Feet. Said plat would also show a Tract "A" along the east side of all 5 lots, said tract would be dedicated to the City of Waterloo as Right of Way. Said Tract "A" is 12,051 SF in size and has a width of 30 Feet. Tract "A" has been existing right of way used for Allen Street but will officially be dedicated to the city upon approval of final plat. Therefore, we would ask that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Final Plat of Williston Field Addition o Staff report • Aerial photograph of the area o Final Plat o Deed of Dedication o Certificate of Survey o Report of the City Engineer Expenditure Required: None CITY WEBSITE: www.ci.waterloo.ia.us WE'RE WORKING FOR YOU!

These lots are currently zoned "R-1, R P" Planned One and Two Family Residence District. Access to the lots would be provided from W 7`h Street. A preliminary plat was approved recently of Williston Field Addition in which 5 lots were proposed for development of single family homes. The submitted plat is in accordance with the Subdivision Ordinance and can be serviced by extensions of existing utilities, and would appear to provide for the orderly development of land that is compatible to surrounding development.

GMJ2 Industries LLC (Jim Ellis), 402 E 4th Street, Suite 101, Waterloo, Iowa 50703. The request is for the Final Plat of Williston Field Addition for the development of a 5 -lot subdivision. The request would not have a negative impact on the neighborhood, as the area is primarily residential in nature, consisting of mostly single-family homes. The plat will have frontage along W 7th Street, which is classified as a Local Street. 5 new residential lots would add additional traffic to the area, but not enough to negatively impact the traffic conditions in the area. There is a sidewalk located along the west side of W 7th Street, the north side of Pleasant Street, and the north and south sides of Williston Avenue. There are no sidewalks located along Allen Street. New sidewalks would be required along the lots once homes are developed. There are no recreational trails in the area of the request. The property in question is zoned "R-1, R -P" Planned One and Two Family Residence District, and has been zoned as such since 04/04/2011. Previously, the property was zoned "R-3" Multiple Family Residence District. Properties to the north, south and east are zoned "R-2" One and Two Family Residence District, and the properties to the west are zoned "R-3" Multiple Family Residence District and "C-1" Neighborhood Commercial District. No buffering would be required. Drainage for the lots would need to be shown and approved once a development is proposed on each lot. This area started developing with homes in the 1950's. The property is not located within a special flood hazard area, as indicated by the Federal Insurance Administration's Flood Insurance Rate Map, Community Number 190025 301F, dated July 18, 2011. Williston Field Addition Final Plat 01-07-14 Page 1 PUBLIC/OPEN SPACES/SCHOOLS UTILITIES: WATER, SANITARY SEWER, STORM SEWER, ETC. RELATIONSHIP TO COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN: STAFF ANALYSIS — ZONING ORDINANCE: STAFF ANALYSIS — SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE: January 7, 2014 This property was previously owned by the Waterloo Community Schools as an open space area. Irving Elementary is located two blocks to the northwest. There is a 36" sanitary sewer located within W 7th Street, and a 21" sanitary sewer located within Allen Street. A 15" storm sewer is located within Pleasant Street. There is a 6" water main located within W 7th Street, and a 12" water main located within Williston Avenue. Water and sanitary sewer service connections to each lot are being proposed off of W 7th Street. Electric, Gas, and Communication lines are also shown within W 7th Street. There is an underground waterway (Dry Run Arch) that runs underneath Allen Street. It takes storm water from Bontrager and Liberty Parks, and flows into the Cedar River under the 6th Street Bridge. The Future Land Use Map (February 3, 2003) designates this site as Parks, Open Spaces and Schools. As this property is used as open space, the designation currently appears to be correct, although it could be updated to reflect the new use of the property. The request would be in conformance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Also, the request would be in conformance with the policy to continue to support infill development in the community as an alternative to other types of urban expansion. The site is located within the Primary Growth Area as shown on the Growth Area Map within the Comprehensive Plan. The Final Plat consists of 5 lots, which will be developed into single-family homes. The 5 lots to be platted total 1.13 acres, with lots ranging from 9,740 SF to 9,970 SF in size. They would also have widths ranging from 80' to 81.5' and an approximate depth of 122'. Both the size and widths proposed would appear to meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance for the district that it is located in. The Final Plat also shows a 10' utility easement and 20' sanitary sewer easement along the font (west side) of all lots. The plat shows a Tract 'A', which is 12,051 SF in size. This is an existing right-of-way area used for Allen Street, but has never been dedicated for such use. Tract 'A' will be officially dedicated for right-of-way use with the approval of this Final Plat. The Final Plat appears to have all necessary information provided on it that the Subdivision Ordinance requires. Williston Field Addition Final Plat 01-07-14 Page 2 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: January 7, 2014 Therefore, staff recommends that the request for the Final Plat of Williston Field Addition be approved for the following reasons: 1. The plat is in accordance with the Subdivision Ordinance, and can be served by existing utilities. 2. The plat is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. 3. The plat will create an additional infill development site in the Primary Growth Area.

In the event an extension of the covenants, restrictions, and stipulations is not filed within the period of 21 years or successive 21 -year periods, then the covenants, restrictions, and stipulations contained herein shall terminate at the end of the existing period of 21 years. 13. If the parties hereto, or any of them or their heirs or assigns, shall violate, or attempt to violate, any of the covenants or restrictions herein, it shall be lawful for any other person, or persons, owning property in the Addition to prosecute any proceedings at law or in equity against the person, or persons, violating, or attempting to violate, any such covenants or restrictions, and for the purpose of preventing such acts, or to recover damages for such violations, or both, and for costs and reasonable attorney fees as determined by the Court and not the statute. 14. Invalidation of any of these covenants by judgment, decree, or court order, shall in no way affect any of the other provisions of this dedication, and such other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. 15. That a Portland cement concrete sidewalk and a hard surface driveway approach will be installed during, or immediately after, the construction, but before issuance of an Occupancy Permit from the City of Waterloo, Iowa, and that the sidewalk will be constructed across the full length of all adjoining streets of the lot, and extend to match the end of existing sidewalk(s) on adjoining lots where sidewalk already exists. Said sidewalk shall also be required to be constructed across all street frontages of two or more adjoining lots, or portions thereof, when any owner has acquired said two or more adjoining lots, or portions thereof, upon construction upon one or more lots, or portions thereof, all as required by the City of Waterloo, Iowa. 16. Any lots remaining vacant for five (5) years after the date of final approval of the plat, or after 75% of the lots in the subdivision have been developed, or two (2) years after the first sale of a lot by the undersigned Owner, whichever occurs first, shall also be improved with sidewalks as soon as the construction season permits. 17. Driveways to each individual home shall be constructed to West 7th Street. No direct access shall be granted to Pleasant Street, Allen Street, or Williston Avenue. 3 18. Sidewalk shall be constructed along West 7th Street (and along Pleasant Street Lot 1) as each residence is constructed, and prior to, issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy.

Maintenance of sidewalks including removal and repair, as well as snow removal, shall be the responsibility of the property owner in accordance with the Code of Ordinances for the City of Waterloo, Iowa. 19. Sidewalk construction along Allen Street will not be required. 20. At such time as any structure is, or has previously been constructed on any lot, combination of lots, or portion of lots, in said Subdivision, when such lot, or part of a lot has been purchased from the Developer, a concrete sidewalk will be constructed across the full length of all adjoining streets of such lot or lots as required by the City of Waterloo, Iowa, and summarized above in Paragraphs 4 and 5.

Please find attached the following documents: • Staff report • Aerial photograph of the area o Final Plat o Deed of Dedication o Certificate of Survey o Report of the City Engineer The Planning and Zoning Commission voted 5-0 to approve the final plat at their meeting on January 7, 2014. The Final Plat consists of 4 lots, which will be developed into 4 single family homes. The Final Plat covers .9 acres and lots range from 9,822 SF to 9,955 SF in size. Said lots would have widths of approximately 75 Feet and depth of 131 Feet. Therefore, we would ask that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Final Plat of Baltimore Field 1s` Addition.

An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer Alternative: Background Information: The request would allow for the development of 4 residential lots. These lots are currently zoned "R-1, R -P" Planned One and Two Family Residence District. Access to the lots would be provided from Vermont Street. A preliminary plat was recently approved where 12 lots were platted. The developer is only proposing the Final Plat on the western 4 lots and will come back through the Final Plat process for the remaining 8 lots when they are ready to be developed. The submitted plat is in accordance with the Subdivision Ordinance and can be serviced by extensions of existing utilities, and would appear to provide for the orderly development of land that is compatible to surrounding development.

GMJ2 Industries LLC, 402 E 4th Street, Suite 101, Waterloo, Iowa 50703. The request is for the Final Plat of Baltimore Field 1st Addition for the development of a 4 -lot subdivision. The request would not appear to have a negative effect on the neighborhood, as the area is primarily residential in nature, consisting primarily of single-family homes. The 4 lots would have frontage along Vermont Street. All of the surrounding roads are classified as Local Streets. There are no sidewalks located adjacent to this property. New sidewalks would be required as each lot develops. There are no recreational trails in the area of the request. The property in question is zoned "R-1, R -P" Planned One and Two Family Residence District, and has been zoned as such since 04/04/2011. Previously, the property was zoned "R-2" One and Two Family Residence District. Surrounding properties are zoned "R-2" One and Two Family Residence District, except for 306 Byron Avenue which is zoned "C-1" Neighborhood Commercial District and an apartment complex one block west zoned "R-3" Multiple Residence District. No buffering would be required. Drainage for the lots would need to be shown and approved once a development is proposed on each lot. This area started developing with homes in the 1950's. The property is not located within a special flood hazard area, as indicated by the Federal Insurance Administration's Flood Insurance Rate Map, Community Number 190025 301F, dated July 18, 2011. This property was previously owned by the City of Waterloo (and previously Waterloo Community Schools) as an open space area. Miller park is located one block to the southwest. There is an 8" sanitary sewer located within Vermont Street and Eureka Street. A 30" storm sewer is located within Eureka Street. There is a 6" water main located within Vermont Street. Baltimore Field 1st Addition Final Plat 01-07-2014 Page 1 ETC. RELATIONSHIP TO COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN: STAFF ANALYSIS — ZONING ORDINANCE: STAFF ANALYSIS — SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE: STAFF RECOMMENDATION: January 7,2014 A 15' storm sewer easement will be added to the North end of lot 4 of the plat. The Future Land Use Map (February 3, 2003) designates this site as Parks, Open Spaces and Schools. As this property was previously used as open space, the designation was correct, although it could be updated to reflect the new use of the property. The request would be in conformance with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. Also, the request would be in conformance with the policy to continue to support infill development in the community as an alternative to other types of urban expansion. The Final Plat consists of four lots, which will be developed into single-family homes. The four lots to be platted total 0.9 acres, with lot one being 9,955 SF and lots two through four being 9,825 SF in size. They would also have widths of approximately 75' and depths of 131'. The plat shows a 10' utility easement along the front (west) of all 4 lots as well as along the south side of lot one. The applicant recently went through the Preliminary Plat process where 12 lots were platted. The applicant is only proposing the final plat on the western four lots and will come back through the Final Plat process for the remaining 8 lots when they are ready to be developed. Conditions approved by Planning and Zoning Commission during the site plan approval process have been met within the Deed of Dedication including having the homes oriented towards the streets as shown on the site plan, which would be Vermont Street for the 4 subject lots. The Final Plat appears to have all necessary information provided on it that the Subdivision Ordinance requires. Therefore, staff recommends that the request for the Final Plat of Baltimore Field 1st Addition be approved for the following reasons: 1. The plat is in accordance with the Subdivision Ordinance, and can be served by existing utilities. 2. The plat is in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. 3. The plat will create an additional infill development site in the Primary Growth Area.

The undersigned does further covenant and agree, for itself, its successors, and assigns, that the respective lots and tracts in said Plat shall be, and the same are hereby subject to the following restrictions and easements, as fully and effectively as if the same were contained and set forth in each deed, contract, or mortgage that the undersigned or its successors in interest may hereafter make, and that such restrictions and easements shall run with the land, and with the described lots, all as follows: 1. All lots in the Addition shall be known, described and used solely as residential lots and, except for a single detached storage building as provided for in Paragraph 2 below, no structure shall be erected on any such residential building lot other than a single-family dwelling, not to exceed one -and -one-half (1-1/2) stories height, and private garages for use with residences erected on said lots. 2. No more than one (1) detached storage building, not to exceed one hundred forty-five (145) square feet in size or more than ten (10) feet in height, may be constructed or placed on any lot in the Addition. Any such detached storage building must be constructed with exterior materials substantially similar to those used for the single-family dwelling located on said lot in the Addition. 3. No building shall be erected on any lot near than the building line shown on the Plat. 4. Any lot in the Addition may be split or divided in any fashion to provide for more lot area when added to an adjoining lot, but no dwelling shall be built or maintained on any partial lot or combine partial lots unless the building site contains 8,515 square feet or more. 1 5. No trailer, basement, tent, shack, garage, barn, or other out -building erected in the Addition shall, at any time, be used as a residence, temporarily or permanently, nor shall any residence of a temporary character be permitted on any lot in said Addition. 6.

The owner of each lot, vacant or improved, shall keep his or her lot, or lots, free of weeds and debris. 8. No obnoxious or offensive trade or activity shall be carried on upon any lot, nor shall anything be done thereon which may be, or become, an annoyance or nuisance to the neighborhood. 9.

ANDERSON, Community Planning & Development Director Council Communication _ City Council Meeting: January 21, 2014"; Prepared: January 13, 2014 Dept. Head Signature: # of Attachments: SUBJECT: A request to set the date of public hearing as February 3, 2014 for a request by the City of Waterloo to rezone 12 acres from "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District and 110 acres from "A-1" Agricultural District to "B -P" Business Park District, located at the southeast corner of Highway 20 and Ansborough Avenue. Submitted by: Noel Anderson, Community Planning & Development Director Recommended City Council Action: Approval Summary Statement: Transmitted herewith is a request to set the date of public hearing as February 3, 2014 for a request by the City of Waterloo to rezone 12 acres from "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District and 110 acres from "A-1" Agricultural District to "B -P" Business Park District, located at the southeast corner of Highway 20 and Ansborough Avenue. The proposed rezone request will increase traffic on the surrounding streets when fully developed. A negative impact is not expected to be significant and can be minimized through access control, traffic control devices, and geometric design improvements when needed. Roads adjacent to the rezone area are Ansborough Avenue, which is classified as a Minor Arterial, and Highway 20, which is classified as a Principle Arterial. The surrounding area is mostly comprised of vacant development ground, with the exception of professional office development along the north side of Highway 20, north of the rezone area. Much of the professional office north of Highway 20 was developed in the late 1990s, up to the present. The Future Land Use Map designates the majority of this area as Business Park, Professional Offices, Commercial, and Compatible Light Industrial. Land just on the east side of Ansborough Avenue is Mixed Commercial, Medium to High Density Residential, Professional Office and Compatible Commercial. The rezone request is in conformance with the Future Land Use Map and Comprehensive Plan for this area. The site is located within the Primary Growth Area. The proposed rezone area covers areas that are zoned "A-1" Agricultural District and "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District. A total of 12 acres will be rezoned from "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District and 110 acres will be rezoned from "A-1" Agricultural District. Overall, a total of 122 acres is requested to be rezoned. Land to the north CITY WEBSITE: wwwci.waterloo.ia.us WE'RE WORKING FOR YOU! An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer of the rezone area was rezoned in 2004 to open up the potential for new commercial and compatible light industrial development in the area. Rezoning of the land in question would be a proactive step, as it would appropriately zone the land for new development to occur. The City has been actively purchasing property in this area for the potential of new development to occur. The plans for this area entail a business park with commercial and compatible light industrial development. At the December 3, 2013 Planning, Programming and Zoning meeting, the Commission voted unanimously in favor of the rezone request. Please find attached to this letter a staff report, aerial photo and legal description. Therefore, staff would request to set the date of public hearing as February 3, 2014 for a request by the City of Waterloo to rezone 12 acres from "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District and 110 acres from "A-1" Agricultural District to "B -P" Business Park District, located at the southeast corner of Highway 20 and Ansborough Avenue, and publish the pertinent notice. Expenditure Required: None Source of Funds: None required Policy Issue: Zoning, Land Use, and Economic Development Alternative: Background Information: The City has been actively been purchasing farm ground in this area for future commercial and light industrial development. Currently, the City has an option on over 100 acres of land in this area. Legal Description: See attached NA:ta cc: Aric Schroeder, City Planner --file-- REQUEST: APPLICANT: GENERAL DESCRIPTION: IMPACT ON NEIGHBORHOOD & SURROUNDING LAND USE: VEHICULAR & PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC CONDITIONS: RELATIONSHIP TO RECREATIONAL TRAIL PLAN: ZONING HISTORY FOR SITE AND IMMEDIATE VICINITY: DEVELOPMENT HISTORY: BUFFERS/ SCREENING December 3, 2013 Request to rezone approximately 12 acres of land from "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District to "B -P" Business Park and rezone approximately 110 acres from "A-1" Agricultural District to "B -P" Business Park City of Waterloo, 715 Mulberry Street, Waterloo, IA 50703 The proposed rezone area is located near the southeast corner of Ansborough Avenue and Highway 20. It would not appear that the rezone would have a negative impact upon the surrounding area or other surrounding land uses. Rezoning the property would appear to be beneficial to the City, as this would be a proactive step in having available development land already zoned appropriately for new development to occur. The proposed rezone request will increase traffic on the surrounding streets when fully developed. A negative impact is not expected to be significant and can be minimized through access control, traffic control devices, and geometric design improvements when needed. Roads adjacent to the rezone area are Ansborough Avenue, which is classified as a Minor Arterial, and Highway 20, which is classified as a Principle Arterial. The West Shaulis Road recreational trail is located approximately 3/4 of a mile to the south along the north side of the road. The rezone area in question is zoned "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District, and has been zoned as such since February 25, 2004. The land that is currently zoned "A-1" Agricultural District has been zoned as such since the adoption of the Zoning Ordinance. Surrounding land uses and their zoning are as follows: North — Highway 20 and existing professional office development, zoned "B -P" Business Park. South — Vacant agricultural ground zoned "A-1" Agricultural District. East — Vacant agricultural ground zoned "A-1" Agricultural District. West — Vacant agricultural ground zoned "A-1" Agricultural District, and four houses along Ansborough Avenue. The surrounding area is mostly comprised of vacant development ground, with the exception of professional office development along the north side of Highway 20, north of the rezone area. Much of the professional office north of Highway 20 was developed in the late 1990s, up to the present. There are two single-family residences on the east side of Ansborough Avenue, and four on the west side near the rezone area. These residences were developed in the 1910s and 1950s. Rezoning of the land would not require and additional buffering or screening. 12.3.13 — S Wloo Business Park — R4RP and Al to BP Page 1 of 3 7 REQUIRED: DRAINAGE: FLOODPLAIN: PUBLIC /OPEN SPACES/ SCHOOLS: UTILITIES: WATER, SANITARY SEWER, STORM SEWER, ETC. RELATIONSHIP TO COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN: STAFF ANALYSIS — ZONING ORDINANCE: STAFF ANALYSIS — SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE: STAFF RECOMMENDATION: December 3, 2013 Rezoning of the land would not appear to have a negative impact upon drainage in the surrounding area. No portion of the rezone area is located within a Special Flood Hazard Area as indicated by the Federal Insurance Administration's Flood Insurance Rate Map, Community Number 190025 and Panel Number 0303F, dated July 18, 2011. There are no parks or schools within the immediate vicinity of the site in question. There are no sanitary or storm sewers that are adjacent to the site. When the land is developed, sanitary sewer will be extended under Highway 20 to serve the property. The nearest water line is within West Shaulis Road to the south, which is 20" in size. The Future Land Use Map designates the majority of this area as Business Park, Professional Offices, Commercial, and Compatible Light Industrial. Land just on the east side of Ansborough Avenue is Mixed Commercial, Medium to High Density Residential, Professional Office and Compatible Commercial. The rezone request is in conformance with the Future Land Use Map and Comprehensive Plan for this area. The site is located within the Primary Growth Area. The proposed rezone area covers areas that are zoned "A-1" Agricultural District and "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District. A total of 12 acres will be rezoned from "R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District and 110 acres will be rezoned from "A-1" Agricultural District. Overall, a total of 122 acres is requested to be rezoned. Land to the north of the rezone area was rezoned in 2004 to open up the potential for new commercial and compatible light industrial development in the area. Rezoning of the land in question would be a proactive step, as it would appropriately zone the land for new development to occur. The City has been actively purchasing property in this area for the potential of new development to occur. The plans for this area entail a business park with commercial and compatible light industrial development. There is no platting required as a part of this request. Therefore, staff recommends that the request to rezone from "A-1" Agricultural District and `R -4,R -P" Planned Residence District to "B- P' Business Park be approved for the following reasons: 1. The site in question would appear to provide sufficient space to meet all required regulations including setbacks, drainage, landscaping, screening, etc. 2. It would not appear that rezoning the land to "B -P" Business 12.3.13 — S Wloo Business Park — R4RP and Al to BP Page 2 of 3 8 December 3, 2013 Park would have a negative impact upon the surrounding area, as rezoning of the land as such would fit the future plans for this area. 3. The rezone area is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map for this area, which designated it as Business Park, Professional Offices, Commercial, and Compatible Light Industrial, and Mixed Commercial, Medium to High Density Residential, Professional Office and Compatible Commercial, and is located within the primary growth area. 12.3.13 — S Wloo Business Park — R4RP and Al to BP Page 3 of 3 9 City of Waterloo Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission December 3, 2013 mum. .0.E.= �. z'-.0 ...

An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer WATERLOO PUBLIC LIBRARY—Board of Trustees—December 10, 2013 Submitted by Kim Chapman Members present: Ivy Hagedorn, Jan Hahn, Karol Erdmann, Warren Wortham, Kathleen Wernimont Members absent: Others present: Kelly Stern, Mike Dargan, Endya Johnson, Sheryl McGovern, Amy Rousselow, Nick Rossman, Kim Chapman, member of public Shannon Craig The regular meeting of the Waterloo Public Library Board of Trustees was called to order by President Jan Hahn at 12:05 p.m. Moved by Wernimont, seconded by Erdmann, to approve the agenda as amended by moving Oral Comments of Board Members, Staff and the Public to after Minutes of the November 12, 2013 Meeting. Motion carried. Moved by Erdmann, seconded by Hagedorn, to approve the November 12, 2013, regular meeting minutes as presented. Motion carried. Oral Comments of Board Members, Staff and the Public A member of the public, Mr. Shannon Craig, said that he was banned from the Library on November 7 with a certified letter. He came into the Library on November 18 to return books. He used the public computers on second floor and was at the Library forty-five minutes, but he didn't know he was banned until the Waterloo Police Department told him he was banned. He had another letter, but did not open it, as he thought it was about overdue books. He said the complaints against him are "definitely not true." Erdmann asked him what action he was requesting from the Board. Mr. Craig said he wanted someone to prove the statements that "are lies." Erdmann asked him what he would like to see happen here. Mr. Craig wants the name of our lawyer and wants to know who is making the allegations against him. Wortham asked him if he is appealing the ban. Mr. Craig says they are false allegations, he does not want to come back, he wants to know who the witness is and where the video is documenting his behavior. Erdmann asked to tell in his own words what it is he's being accused of. Mr. Craig said he would not tell her, and he would take it to a court of law. He said the letters are false and exaggerated. Mr. Craig left the meeting at 12:15 p.m. The Board members are in agreement there is no call to action. Sheryl will supply Mr. Craig with the name of the City Attorney. His ban is up June 1, 2014. The financial reports and bills were reviewed. Moved by Wernimont, seconded by Wortham, to pay the November bills as presented. Motion carried. The statistical/usage report was reviewed. Sheryl noted circulation is holding its own, with some of it possibly due to renewals. Director's Report • Security Services & RFP—Sheryl reported the security contract will need to be bid out for July 1. She will prepare an RFP for twenty-eight hours per week and $13.64 per hour. • Invoices & City Hall—Sheryl explained about payment of materials' bills, and how sometimes the items are on the shelf and circulating before the invoice for them is paid. That is because of the time involved in payment of bills. A couple of years ago, when asked, the Board members preferred all bills to go through them at the monthly meetings. Sheryl is asking for approval to prepare a policy allowing materials' bills to be sent weekly to the City's Finance Office for payment, especially because of the pile of invoices accumulated through the month. She will work on that policy to present next month. • Grant Award Announcement—A $1500 technology grant, brought to Sheryl's attention by Amy Rousselow, was applied for and awarded for e -readers for the World Languages Area. • Parking Update—Sheryl did send a letter to the mayor's office regarding parking surrounding the library, but has not received any response. She reported more meters are being installed and that she is aware of a Cedar Rapids company wanting to manage downtown parking. • CIP Report—Sheryl reported talking to Craig Clark, the Building Maintenance Official, that the library parking lot is expected to be redone next year; a family restroom will be installed; the first floor restrooms will be gutted and remodeled; the Council is opening bids on December 16 for additional security cameras at the library; lighting in the parking lot will be improved. Sheryl asked Mr. Clark to add regular updates to technology/computers to the CIP list. • Budget FY15—Sheryl reported instruction from the mayor's office regarding FY15 preparation is to keep the bottom line exactly the same as FY14, with no increase in the overall asking, except for bargained and nonbargained wages. At last evening's Council meeting, a 4.8% salary increase for nonbargaining employees was approved to regain the raises not given to nonbargaining employees at the time when bargaining unit employees received their full increase amount. This will be brought to the Board of Trustees for approval after the City budget is set. • Review of Board Meeting Dates & Time—the Board met regularly on the second Monday of the month at noon. The meeting times were moved to the second Tuesday of the month at 7:00 a.m. This month the Board is meeting at noon. Hahn suggested a poll for the preferred day and time; Sheryl will create a poll. • Miscellaneous—nothing more. Informational Reports from Staff • Mike Dargan, Technical Systems—Mike picked up fourteen Dell computers from the City today and will use them for public use to replace older computers. In looking at IUPLA (Iowa Urban Public Library Association) stats, Mike reported our library is number two to Des Moines Public Library for computer usage; we reported 116,000 sessions in FY13. Mike is continuing to work on the maker - space concept and is staying involved with CedarLUG for PC gaming. • Nick Rossman, Circulation—nothing to report this month. • Amy Rousselow, Volunteer/Marketing Coordinator—Amy and WPL employee Becky Miller attended advanced PLONE website training in Johnston, Iowa. (PLONE is the free website through the state.) In addition to the traditional monthly book discussion, a new book discussion through social media will be launched in January. This is the SoMe book group through Facebook with the first title for discussion Sleeping in Eden by Iowa author Nicole Baart. • Kelly Stern, Youth Librarian—Pajama Storytime was held last month. The holiday puppet show was last Wednesday. Aggressive weeding is being pursued in the youth department to make room for interactive play spaces created by the Burgeon Group specifically for libraries. • Kim Chapman, Business Office—nothing to report. Referred for Board Action • Food for Fines, February 8-15—February is Library Lovers Month, and there is somewhat a tradition at WPL to hold a week long food for fines event when one nonperishable food item counts $2 towards overdue fines. Moved by Wernimont, seconded by Hagedorn to approve Food for Fines Week. Motion carried. • Approval of Board Meeting Dates & Time—no action taken. Unfinished Business • Labor/Management minutes for November 13, 2013, were included in the packets. The committee is aggressively pursuing the dignity/respect theme for December by asking staff members to gung ho others. At the end of the month, there will be a drawing from all the gung ho's for a $25 gift card to the gung ho'd and the gung ho'er. There is discussion about how to best schedule for library needs. New Business • Nothing. FOL Liaison • Erdmann reported the annual meeting was November 21. A $22,000 check was presented to the Library, which mostly was earned through The Book ReView and the book sales. It will be used mostly for purchase of new materials. There were sixty-five volunteers in FY13 working 4,600 hours. Outgoing Board members were acknowledged and new Board members were approved at the annual meeting. A new WPL Board liaison is needed, as Erdmann is unable to continue in that role. The FOL Board meets the third Wednesday of the month at 4:00 p.m., and no meetings are held in July, August and December. Does the WPL Trustees by-laws state a liaison to the FOL Board must be a WPL Board member? Oral Comments of Board Members, Staff and the Public • Held at beginning of meeting. The next meeting is January 14, at noon. Moved by Erdmann, seconded by Hagedorn to adjourn. Motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 1:11 p.m. AUDITOR'S COPY Board Approval Council Approval MINUTES COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BOARD MEETING December 17, 2013 The regular meeting of the Community Development Board was held in the City Council Chambers, 715 Mulberry Street, Waterloo, Iowa and called to order by Chairman Eric Johnson at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, December 17, 2013. Members present: Gary Rankin, Maxine Tisdale, Sajra Vunic and Eric Johnson. Members absent: John Berry and Jeri Thornsberry. Also present: Rudy Jones, Community Development Director, Nancy Gulick, Community Development Coordinator, and Ann Northey, Administrative Secretary. A. APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA. Chairman Johnson indicated Board packets were mailed prior to the meeting, asking for changes or additions. It was moved by Maxine Tisdale and seconded by Sajra Vunic to approve the agenda as mailed. Motion carried. B. APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES FOR THE REGULAR MEETING NOVEMBER 19, 2013. Chairman Johnson asked for changes or corrections to the minutes of the last regular meeting on November 19, 2013. It was moved by Maxine Tisdale and seconded by Sajra Vunic to approve the minutes of the regular meeting on November 19, 2013 as mailed. Motion carried. C. OLD BUSINESS 1. Single Family Unit Production — Round 2 Update (Dec. 31, 2012 extended to Dec. 31, 2014). Rudy Jones reported on a meeting with John Rooff, the developer, indicated that Mr. Rooff has clients he has been working with and hopes to close on the final unit before the end of the year. Rudy noted another unit was approved at the City Council meeting to clear up some title work. 2. Single Family Unit Production — Round 3 Update (December 31, 2012 extended December 31, 2014). Rudy Jones stated some progress is being made at the Summerland site. The State is now requiring all units to be started by April 15, 2014 and finalized by December 31, 2014. We have communicated this information to the developers. Skogman Homes and Black Hawk Development should have no trouble meeting those deadlines. The Summerland project has the most work to accomplish in that time frame. Rudy Jones indicated we will meet again with Jason Guthrie and Tyler Duda of Iowa Contractor Services to review their schedules and provide an update at the next meeting. Chairman Johnson inquired about the contractor's activity at the Van Eaton site. Rudy Jones stated the city has deeded property to Black Hawk Development at the Van Eaton site and Iowa Contractor Services Minutes December 17, 2013 Page 2 also have four units to complete at the Van Eaton site. 3. Single Family Unit Production — Round 4 Update (March 15, 2013 Extended December 31, 2014). Rudy Jones explained Iowa Contractor Services at Summerland is finishing up their final units. The City Council approved them moving ahead with replatting some of their parcels at Summerland. Work has been slow at this site, and we are not certain why. We will follow up to see what progress is being made. Rudy Jones noted that Skogman Homes has broken ground at the Hummingbird site. Chairman Johnson indicated Black Hawk Development has all their units substantially complete at the former Lincoln School Site. 4. Neighborhood Stabilization Program — Round 3 Update (February 28, 2014). Rudy Jones indicated a closing on one of the NSP new construction units will take place in early January. We have processed the payments on this project. Two units remain to be sold, and are being marketed with some interest. Rudy Jones explained the plans that Allen Connerley sent us for the combined site at 1019-1021 Lafayette were unacceptable, so we are working out the details for a better plan. Rudy stated that Mr. Connerley hopes to design the home similar to the one at 1013 Lafayette, which he rehabilitated for us. The demolition contractor has initiated his cut-offs and will be working with Mr. Connerley on the foundation work to minimize the footprint on the combined lots. Rudy Jones noted demolition will begin soon after the holidays. Rudy Jones stated we received an appraisal for 1005 Lafayette in the amount of $10,000. We will negotiate a potential price with the owners to see if they would be willing to sell this property. Gary Rankin inquired about the proceeds from the new construction homes. Nancy Gulick explained that once a property has been built and sold, we will use the proceeds to build another house. She noted they will eventually close out the NSP program and we may be able to roll those funds into the CDBG program. D. NEW BUSINESS: 1. Endorse Rehabilitation Contracts for November 2013. (Copy attached) Chairman Johnson indicated the report was in the Board packet. Rudy Jones explained that some of the rehab costs are exceeding the CDBG limits and he would discuss this further at the next meeting. It was moved by Gary Rankin and seconded by Maxine Tisdale to endorse the Rehabilitation Contracts for November 2013. Motion carried. 2. Set Subcommittee meeting date for FY2015 CDBG and HOME Funding Cycle application review and discussion of Down Payment Assistance Program. Chairman Johnson indicated the subcommittee will meet to review the CDBG and HOME applications Minutes December 17, 2013 Page 3 early in January prior to the first Board meeting. A date for this meeting was set for Wednesday, January 8, 2014 at 8:00 a.m. in the Community Development Office. The subcommittee members are Maxine Tisdale, Sajra Vunic and Gary Rankin. The Mayor will assign two city council members to participate in the review process. E. DISCUSSION ITEMS. 1. Housing Trust Fund Award. Rudy Jones indicated we sought additional dollars from the Iowa Finance Authority through the Housing Trust Fund. We were approved to receive those funds, based upon a set amount per capita, we were expecting approximately $120,000. We received $90,000 and will be diligent in accessing those funds for activities such as emergency shelter and a percentage must go to low -mod income for transitional housing, owner -occupied housing repairs and accessibility repairs. We have not received the details of these projects and hopefully by Spring the funds will be available to us. Chairman Johnson asked about the non-profit entity set up to handle these funds. Rudy Jones indicated we have two staff members as part of that group. Chairman Johnson inquired about the plan to distribute the funding. Rudy Jones stated we are still working out the details for the proposed match of these funds. Chairman Johnson asked to discuss the homeowner's evaluation for the property at 817 Hickory Street. The Chairman noted Daniels Home Improvement was the contractor for this rehabilitation project. Rudy Jones explained he has visited with staff concerning the comments made by the homeowner in this evaluation. Rudy is trying to find out what is factual in terms of the comments presented by the homeowner concerning issues with Mr. Daniels' performance. Rudy indicated an updated report will be presented next month. Rudy Jones advised that the staff has been scaling down the rehabilitation waiting list over the last ten months and updating our records. The active waiting list will now be under 300 names by the end of 2013. Rudy explained that we continue to rehabilitate approximately 30-35 homes per year. F. ADJOURN MEETING.
