ORAL PRESENTATIONS
Forest Dillavou, 1725 Huntington Road, commented that several weeks ago he mentioned that a wall
was placed inside a building located at 304 W. 5th Street, without a permit or inspection, and does
not believe that it is a proper use of taxpayer funds.
David Dryer, 3145 W. 4th Street, commented that the city could rent the Johnstone Building and
questioned if the city is storing logs at this site as well. He further stated that it does not make sense
to rent facilities when we own property in the same location.
John Sherbon, 1715 Robin Road, commented that the city is most of the way through July and the
convention center has still not sold and questioned how long the developer will be allowed to be
carried by the city.
Todd Obadal, 124 Amity Drive, commented that Steve Murphy was a citizen who passed away
recently who took great interest in city council meetings. He asked about a sidewalk at the corner of
NE corner of 5th Street and Jefferson and questioned what happened in the area that would cause
costs to be incurred by the taxpayers.
Bruce Kaesser, Waterloo, Iowa, asked that people keep their comments and attitudes civil during
council meetings.
Mr. Shimp commented that Steve Murphy would be greatly missed and expressed condolences to his
family. He shared that he did a ride along with police officers, did a tour of the Waterloo Airport,
shadowed the Fire Department, Street Department, Animal Control, Central Garage, Downtown
Maintenance, and the Forestry Department. He encouraged all council members to do this as well.
Mr. Morrissey commented on the need to change the fireworks ordinance. He shared a quote from
the Assistant County Attorney on the importance of abstaining from voting due to a conflict of
interest vs. lack of information. He also shared that this Wednesday is the memorial for Fred Becker
which will be held at Fairview Cemetery on Wednesday at 11:00 a.m.
Mrs. Klein expressed condolences for the loss of Steve Murphy and commented that the city has lost
a very nice man.

Mr. Shimp commented that it is an outside of the box idea and it would be good for the city to try
this program.
Mrs. Klein commented that other classes should have been involved in the program such as business,
marketing, and real estate. She explained that building a home in a market where homes are sold for
$40,000 when budgets are tight is an unwise decision and will not support the item.
