that communication from Mark Winninger, representing concerned citizens
transmitting a resolution of the Waterloo City Council establishing rules and
procedures relating to public participation at City Council meetings be received,
placed on file and "Resolution approving said request", be adopted.
Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following discussion was heard.
Mark Winninger, 1318 Olympic Drive, stated that a group of interested citizens was
proposing the resolution to improve the public image of the City of Waterloo and
to establish a more business -like atmosphere for the oral presentations section
of the agenda. He supported his comments by stating that many of the City Council
meetings are dominated by comments from the public that are not germane to the
issue being discussed. The Committee has met with Mayor Manning to discuss the
proposal, which is in no way an attempt to mask or hide the public comments
section of the agenda. He noted that it would not limit discussion during
required public hearings. The proposed format would call for the oral
presentations section of the agenda to 6:30 p.m. and not be cablecast. At 7:00
p.m., the City Council meeting would proceed with the benefit of cable television
coverage. Those wishing to address the Council at 6:30 p.m. would be required
to register in the office of the Clerk/Auditor by noon of the Monday which they
want to appear. These new procedures would require re-education of the public on
the procedures for public comment, much like the Waterloo School Board has. done
in reformatting their public comments section. He noted that the revised School
Board format has produced a positive impact on the community and would expect
similar results from the City's changed format. He stated that the oral section
of the agenda should not be an opportunity for the public to berate City
employees. The opportunity to speak before the Council is a privilege and not an
assumed right, noting that the public should use that privilege responsibly.
L. C. Hennessey, 528 Montrose Drive, stated that the proposed format is not
warranted and that the Committee should rethink the proposed procedures. He
supported retaining the current format of public participation.
Richard Naggin, 621 Summit Avenue, stated that as one who watches the City Council
meetings on cable, the Mayor should take a more active stand during oral
presentations and possibly rule some persons. out of order. He noted that not
everyone can come to City Council meetings, and that cable provides an opportunity
that many would not ordinarily have to view city government in action.

Petitions from Public - continued
Shirley Koslowski, 816 Archer Avenue and speaking as a representative of the
League of Women's Voters, spoke against the full range of changes being
recommended. She stated that public comment could be guided with implementation
of proper rules and policies. She noted that the School Board changes are only
temporary, and that the Board will be revisiting the issue very soon. She
suggested that we try the pre -registration and revisit the issue within 60 days.
She stressed the need to control the meetings with authority and wisdom from the
participants.
Norris Sisk, 2216 Plain View Street, noted that the Mayor and Council are making
it more complicated for the public to address the Council. Mayor Manning
clarified that this resolution was not at the initiation of him or the Council but
was brought forward by a group of citizens. Mayor Manning read the entire
resolution noting the proposed procedures.
Richard Gleason, 420 Oakland Avenue, stated that it would be very difficult for
the working man or second shift personnel to pre -register at the Clerk's Office.
Councilperson Dell questioned why the Council did not address the real problem,
which are the abusers of the system who grandstand and degrade City staff. He
stated that it was premature to act on this issue, and that the proposed policies
need refinement as our image throughout the state has been tarnished.
Councilperson Angel stated that moving the oral presentations to 6:30 p.m., and
moving committee meetings earlier, could preclude a "working person" from serving
on the Council, since many working people are not available until after 5:00 p.m.
Mayor Manning stated that his opposition to the proposed resolution included
limiting the time frame of remarks from the public to possibly six individuals if
each spoke their allotted five minutes. Councilperson Dell stated that it may be
interesting to await the decision of the Waterloo School Board in changing its
proposed format.
James Robison, 1555 Newell Street, questioned who decides what is placed on the
Council agenda. Mayor Manning stated that he has the authority to place an item
on the Council agenda. He stated that many times issues must be brought to the
City Council for discussion when Department Heads have not responded in a manner
favorable to the citizen. He stated that the public deserves to be heard in such
matters.
Mel Smelser, 2235 Temple Avenue, reminded Mayor Manning of his campaign promise
that the City Council meetings would be an opportunity for the citizenry to have
an open forum. He reminded Council Members that the citizens had elected them to
listen and serve the public.
Saul Herscovici, 2558 Saratoga Drive, stated that such a proposal is a loss of a
basic freedom and liberty to express oneself on matters of concern to the public.
Citizens need a forum to voice their opinions, and that limiting their comments
could result in the loss of the Council's contact with the public.
L.C. Hennessey, 528 Montrose Drive, asked that the Council table action on the
proposed resolution.
Councilperson Dell stated that it was inherent that the City get its act together
and respect the opinions of both sides of the issues.
Ron Knapp, 1121 Oregon Street, clarified that the Committee did not support taking
individual rights away but the new procedures would allow problems to be addressed
immediately by Department Heads or City Council Members. He stated that the gavel
does not fall very often on those who abuse the privilege of speaking before the
public body, noting that the resolution would add the needed structure to the
meetings and allow the City to deal with the business at hand. He commented that
the resolution still allows the public to address any item on the printed agenda.
Hopefully, this format will allow citizens to get their problems answered quicker.
Such a format would increase the credibility of our City within the state of Iowa
and perhaps turn the tide of public perception of our Council proceedings.
December 21, 1992 Page 4
Petitions from Public - continued
F. J. Lynch, 1118 Cornwall Avenue, opposed the proposed resolution noting that
oftentimes bringing citizens' comments to the Council via cable may bring the
public embarrassment to address the problem.
Scott Wienands, 554 Sunset Road, stated that this resolution provides an
opportunity to give government back to the citizens and allow Department Heads to
be responsible and act in the capacity for which they are employed. He noted that
this proposal does not restrict public comment, and that the proposed procedures
could change the attitudes of others about our City.
Mayor Manning noted that he was not in favor of portions of the resolution,
including not cablecasting public comments or the pre -registration.
Councilperson Angel stated that many of the problems addressed this evening could
be handled if the existing code of conduct was enforced. She stated her
opposition to the pre -registration requirement.
L. C. Hennessey, 528 Montrose Drive, suggested that even lay people have ideas and
rights that need a forum before the City Council.
Councilperson Budak offered an amendment that would require no prior sign-up for
persons wishing to appear before the City Council during oral presentations and
to cablecast said oral presentations at 6:30 p.m.
The Mayor called for a second on Councilperson Budak's motion three times and did
not receive a second. The motion died for lack of a second.
Councilperson Buck offered the following amendment: (Items 1 through 6 would
remain the same with the addition of the following Item No. 7. Speakers at oral
presentations shall address their questions and comments to the Mayor and Council.
It shall be up to the Mayor to ask City staff members to respond.)
Councilperson Fox seconded the above motion. A roll call was taken with the
following results. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.
100410 - Richard Naggin, 621 Summit Avenue, reminded the public that the Mayor has an open
door policy and will hear citizens' complaints whenever necessary. It was
clarified to Mr. Naggin that the public still has an opportunity to speak on any
item on the printed agenda.
Ron Knapp, 1121 Oregon Street, stated that Mr. Naggin (the previous speaker) was
confused by the proposed resolution, and that once it is clarified agrees with the
proposed format.
Forest Diilavou, 1725 Huntington Road, stated that many of his co-workers are not
regular attenders of the Council meetings but watch it 'on cable TV. He spoke
against the proposed format change.
Dave Burman, 1103 Vine Street, stated that he is a frequent watcher on cable TV
and likes to know the publics' comments. He stated that cable should remain as
a means for citizens in Waterloo to know about City government.
Ron Knapp, 1121 Oregon Street, stated that he is also a "working man" and could
under the proposed guidelines. pre -register.
For purposes of clarification, Larry P. Burger, City Clerk/Auditor, repeated the
amendment as proposed by Councilperson Budak.
Moved by Dell, seconded by Angel
that a motion to table action on the original motion be approved. This motion was
withdrawn with the approval of the mover and seconder.

Petitions from Public - continued
Councilperson Fox stated that there are two issues involved with the proposed
resolution. The first is the image of the City of Waterloo. The City of Waterloo
is made up.of many facets, and if any one spoke of that wheel is broken, such as
being discussed this evening, it reflects badly on the community as a whole.
Secondly, the issue of efficiency must be addressed. This is an opportunity for
the City Council to better serve the citizens and through the pre -registration
allow problems to be addressed at the staff level. He stated that the City has
a very open form of government and utilizes many citizens on various boards and
commissions in volunteer capacities. He supported the continuation of public
comment on the agenda, noting that the City has been responsive to the publics'
needs via neighborhood meetings and public hearings. He reported that -the
Citizens Committee that brought forth the resolution saw this procedural matter
as a small step forward to improve the image of the community. The Committee will
continue to enhance the community's issue through positive public relations.
Councilperson Lemke stated that as the only Council Members who has stood on the
other side of the rail, he would hate to see rules imposed that should only be
directed to a very few. He suggested that we adjust the current system and not
completely change the process. He has received approximately 50 calls on this
issue, most who have indicated a need to "clean up our act."
Councilperson Dell stated that as an At -Large Councilperson, he has had no one
suggest changing the process. Rather, the public suggestions have been to "clean
up" what is now happening and fine tune the system.
Councilperson Buck suggested that Item No. 6 in said proposed resolution be
amended and not "require citizens to register."
Moved by Dell, seconded by Budak
that "Resolution establishing rules and procedures relating to public
participation at City Council meetings", as amended, be tabled for one week.
Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.

for property generally located at 33 Franklin Street in the Franklin Gateway
Neighborhood", be adopted. Ayes: Seven.
Resolution adopted and upon approval by Mayor assigned No. 1992-710.
100416 - Moved by Budak, seconded by Lemke

Ayes: Seven.
Resolution adopted and upon approval by Mayor assigned No. 1992-711.
100417 - Mayor Manning noted that the City Council had met during a work session earlier
in the day to discuss the elimination of non -conflict street lights. The Council
asked that the Police Department review the street lights to be eliminated and to
report back in two weeks. Councilperson Dell asked that Midwest Power, Inc. be
requested to provide financial assistance. Councilperson Fox stated that the
street light issue is not a safety issue. Police Chief Koehrsen stated that as
a veteran of security matters, there is no imperial data to support the fact that
lighting deters crime. Lights are only a placebo for security. Any lights that
the Police Department recommends not to be removed will deal with the Department's
efforts to reduce drug traffic in a particular area.
Moved by Buck, seconded by Fox
that "Resolution authorizing elimination of non -conflict street lights throughout
the City", be tabled for two weeks. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.
ORDINANCES TO BE ADOPTED
100418 - Don Temeyer, Planning and Development Director, stated that City staff had met
with Rick Young (see CR 100388 of December 14, 1992) and as a result, staff is
recommending that the following paragraph be deleted from the third reading of the
ordinance. "The vehicular or pedestrian use area must terminate at least five
feet from any exterior building wall to provide a landscaped building buffer area.
Exceptions may be made where it is necessary to cross the buffer area to gain
access to the building(s) and for drive -up facilities such as banks and
restaurants." Mr. Young asked that the maintenance clause in the proposed
ordinance be eliminated.
Moved by Angel, seconded by Wright
that "an Ordinance approving amendments to Zoning Ordinance No. 2479, as amended,
as it pertains to landscaping for all "R-3" Multiple Residence Districts and less
restrictive zoning except the Central Business District", be received, placed on
file, considered and passed for the third time, as amended, and eliminating said
paragraph referenced above. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.

100419 - Moved by Fox, seconded by Wright
Page 7
that "an Ordinance approving amendments to Zoning Ordinance No. 2479, as amended,
as it pertains to landscaping for all "R-3" Multiple Residence Districts and less
restrictive zoning except the Central Business District", be adopted, as amended
under CR 100418. Ayes: Seven.
Ordinance adopted and upon approval by Mayor assigned No. 3907.
100420 - Don Temeyer, Planning and Development Director, stated that after meeting with
Rick Young, it was the staff's recommendation to reduce the sideyard requirements
in "R-3" Multiple Family Residence Districts classifications and higher at 5 feet
for one story buildings, 10 feet for two story buildings, and 10 feet for three
story buildings.
Assistant Fire Chief Frank Magsamen stated that the proposed side yard setbacks
of 5 feet, 10 feet, and 10 feet were adequate for fire safety.
James Crandall, 1155 Leona Street, submitted a letter from the Black Hawk County
Homebuilders Association opposing the proposed change.
Mr. Temeyer stated that if the proposed ordinance presents a hardship for a
particular lot, the Board of Adjustment is the appeal body. Existing buildings
will be grandfathered in; however, vacant lots will not. Rick Young urged the
Council not to penalize the entire community when the problem may exist for a few
lots in the downtown area.
Jeff Cook, 5709 North Union Road, stated that as an area builder, he felt the
proposed ordinance was an anti -development proposition.
Mr. Temeyer stated that the issue of affordable housing should not be confused
with the proposed ordinance change. In recent years, the City has approved a
decrease in front and rear yard lot line requirements, which have not been
detrimental to building. The proposed recommendations originated from the Design
Review Board, which definitely represents a pro -development stance. Much
compromising has been done since the original ordinance was proposed.
Mr. Crandall questioned Mr. Temeyer as to what problems have necessitated the
proposed ordinance change. Mr. Temeyer stated that in commercial developments,
most notably the Fairfield and the Comfort Inns, and mixed use neighborhoods have
been a particular concern. Building too close to a lot line creates a dilapidated
housing stock which oftentimes is in short supply. Mr. Temeyer also pointed out
that it was not the City's desire to stop growth in the community, noting that the
President of the Homebuilders is on the Planning and Zoning Commission.
development process.
Moved by Fox, seconded by Angel
that "an Ordinance approving amendments to Zoning Ordinance No. 2479, as amended,

Department)", be adopted. Ayes: Seven.
Ordinance adopted and upon approval by Mayor assigned No. 3909.
100426 - Councilperson Angel stated that she was not opposed to the proposed $10 per month
fee but has received many calls from constituents stating that citizens should
only be required to pay for services they actually use. She noted that as
recycling becomes a reality, the level of service will be addressed.
Saul Herscovici, 2558 Saratoga Drive, stated that citizens of this community have
absorbed many new taxes, including the local option sales tax, increased property
taxes due to the construction of the Black Hawk County Jail, an increase in State
Sales Tax and now an increase in garbage fees. He stated that the City should
hold the line and hold its costs to the rate of inflation. We need to balance our
income with our expenses and lower property taxes.
John Meyer, Public Works Director, stated that the City has experienced costs that
are uncontrollable, including landfill fees, negotiated labor settlements, and an
increase in commodities. These increases have approximated $1 million during the
past three years. He noted that fees collected for garbage go solely for the
operation of the solid waste fund and is not subsidized by general fund levies.
Councilperson Dell noted that the City does not have control over the increases
in certain items, noting that the City of Waterloo has a cadillac system of
garbage collection.
Moved by Dell, seconded by Buck
that "an Ordinance amending the 1988 Code of Ordinances of the City of Waterloo,
Iowa, by repealing Subsection 16-8(a) Regarding Fees for Service, of Chapter 16,
