ORDINANCE TO BE ADOPTED
92338 - Moved by Brown, seconded by Fox
that "an ordinance imposing a tax within the City of Waterloo, Iowa, of one
percent (1%) upon local sales and services to become effective January 1, 1989,
and providing that revenue shall be derived and allocated in accordance with
Chapter 422B of the Code of Iowa (1987)", be received, placed on file, passed
and considered for the third time.
Prior to the vote, Frank Dowie, Chairperson of the Citizens for Property Tax
Relief Committee, stated that if the sales tax were to pass countywide it would
mean $7 million in revenue. He continued that 60 percent would go for direct
property tax relief, 25 percent for street maintenance and reconstruction and
15 percent for Quality of Life Authority. Dowie explained the $30 million
proposed street plan developed by John Meyer which $3 million a year is now
anticipated with the passage of the local option sales tax. Dowie pointed out
that 60 percent would go for property tax relief, bringing the present $8.53
per thousand dollariy in the General Fund to approately $6.52. He stated
June 20, 1988 Page 7
Ordinance to be Adopted - continued
that the last thing that the City would do after figuring the budget under a
$8.10 limit would be to subtract off the estimated $2.4 million in sales tax,
thus not allowing the City to "creep back" to the $8.10 limit. He continued
that Moody's had expressed a favorable reaction to the fact that the City was
proposing putting a local option sales tax on the ballot to relieve the burden
on property tax. Dowie pointed out that if a sales tax were enacted now, it
would mean approximately $101 savings on your property taxes each year (assumed
$50,000 assessed value). You would have to spend $10,000 in taxable items to
make up the difference of the savings. Dowie stated that $10,000 would be
difficult to spend because of exceptions (automobiles, food and drugs and
industrial equipment).
Discussion followed regarding the equity between the use of street money
between the east and the west side and whether there were comparable amounts
spent on both sides of the River.
Jim Porter, 527 Cottage Street, stated that he had concerns about the equity of
money being spent on street projects in the Fourth Ward. Porter continued that
we can't dwell on the past as far as what has happened, but we must go forward.
Porter stated that many questions must be answered prior to the September 27
election date.
Mayor McKinley stated that
the sales tax will go for
citizens of Waterloo. He

would recommend that the money be spent for
reconstruction and maintenance of existing streets instead of building new
streets.
Dale Miller, 389 Derbyshire, stated that he would like to see a "sunset" clause
in which the sales tax would self-destruct within two years.
City Attorney Hugh Field stated that the law does not allow for any sunset
provisions. Elimination of the sales tax must be by referendum of the voters.
Jim Lawrence, President of the Waterloo Chamber of Commerce, stated that the
Waterloo Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors had voted unanimously in
support of the upcoming local option sales tax and recommended its passage.
Bill Fratzke, 501 Colby Road, stated that he is not in favor of any new tax and
felt that the quality of life money would just be a secret way of putting the
money into a Sports Complex. Fratzke stated that the election should be put on
the general election ballot instead of a special election.
Councilperson Wright stated that she would like more information on the Quality
of Life Commission.
Mayor McKinley stated that the structure of the Qualify of Life Commission is
outlined in the ordinance. He stated that every year the Quality of Life
Commission will bring recommendations to the City Council for the expenditures
of approximately $600,000. McKinley stated that if he had his choice right
now, he would put $100,000 into a drug task force to eliminate drugs in the
community. McKinley continued that there will be several different
recommendations come out of the Quality of Life Commission to the Council, and
that the Council can either vote them up or send them back to the Quality of
Life Commission for further recommendation.
Mayor McKinley called for any further discussion regarding the ordinance.
Hearing none, the ordinance was voted on. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.

on file, passed and considered for the second
Prior to the vote, Gene Schwickerath, 1400 West Third Street, stated that he
was a member of the Landlord Association and would like to go on record as
opposing this increase. Schwickerath stated that he felt the ordinance was
unfair by charging a minimum charge for each unit in an apartment house.
Dale Wilharm, 1899 Pinehurst Court, stated that he also felt that the new rate
structure was unfair to people who own apartment houses. He stated that the
increase could cost a landlord an increase of $250 a month if the person owns
50 to 60 rental units.
Councilperson Buck stated that the apartment owners have been getting a break
in the past by paying the same minimum charge as the homeowner. Buck continued
that he felt the apartment owners were getting an advantage in the past and
this would just bring everything to equal.
Mayor McKinley stated that some of the apartment owners assume that apartment
dwellers always have just one couple in each apartment and most homeowners have
four person per house. McKinley continued that this assumption was not always
accurate because of the fact that he only has two people living in his house
presently.
Bruce Bottorff, Superintendent of the Water Pollution Control, explained that
because of the increase in the sewage allowance at 300 cubic feetfor the $4
minimum charge, the actual increase is not $4 per unit but a $1.18 per unit
increase.
Harold Andrew questioned the increase in the minimum charge and how it related
back to the 300 cubic feet of water for the $4 minimum charge.
Bruce Bottorff stated that for each $4 minimum charge that the apartment owners
will pay, they will be allowed 300 cubic feet of water usage.
Mayor McKinley stated that he had a suggestion that instead of having the
landlords call in each time the apartments are empty to report and eliminate
the charge. we would possibly want to take an average occupancy rate of
approximately 85 percent of apartments in the community times the rate.
With no further discussion, a vote was taken. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.
