PUBLIC COMMENTS
Marcella Gruver, 203 Miriam Drive, shared that she is opposed to the city allowing Pride Fest to
occur. She stated that she believes homosexuality is a sin and that the city is in the wrong for
allowing the event to take place.
Forest Dillavou, 1725 Huntington Road, commented that he was at the Edison School Rezone
meeting. He shared there are some things that he supports and some things that concern him. He
explained that he would like to see businesses on the south side and a nice inclusive park on the
north side and encouraged council to support that.
David Dryer, 3145 W. 4th Street, asked to remove items LA.12 ,and 1.A.14 and LB.6 from the
consent agenda for further discussion. He commented on the number of dead trees in the city right
of way that cause a public safety hazard, and the current difficulty-accessing highway 20.
Renee' Carson, 1108 Vine Street, commented that her business suffered during Irish Fest because
her patrons were not allowed to walk to her business without paying the $25 dollar entry fee because
her business resided within the festival grounds.
Mr. Grieder encouraged everyone to attend Cedar Valley Pride Fest because it is important to
support everyone in our community.
Mr. Morrissey commented that he hopes that Irish Fest can work something out to allow patrons to
visit businesses during Irish Fest so that they do not lose business during that time. Mr. Morrissey
echoed Mr. Grieder's comments about Pride Fest. He then read a statement regarding the removal of
the griffin design from the Police Department vehicles,uniforms and equipment. A resolution will
be placed on the September 7, 2021 city council meeting agenda that the old griffin design must and
shall be removed by September 30, 2021 from all objects and property within the city of Waterloo's
Police Department. He then read the resolution.
Mrs. Klein commented that this is the continued beat down of the Police Department. She stated
that the committee was a sham and had someone on it who did not divulge her husband was
designing patches. The police should have been involved from the beginning and they were not.
She commented that if the griffin image is so scandalously racist, then Irish Fest should not allow a
griffin flag to be flown, as it was by a council member.
Mr. Grieder commented that he has voted to support the police at every opportunity.
Mrs. Juon commented that the statement made by Mrs. Klein that the police were not consulted in
the process is completely false and that numerous conversations were had with many officers and
their families prior to the vote.

August 16, 2021 Page 2
Mr. Amos commented that the 7-0 vote was reached through compromise to move the community
forward and to eliminate perceptions.
Mrs. Klein commented on her voting record regarding the police budget and explained the instances
where she did not vote to approve on particular items and that it was a difference of opinion, not a
lack of support.
Mr. Morrissey commented that the insignia used by the Cedar Glen Pipes and Drums is not a griffin.
160307 - Juon/Grieder
that the above oral comments be received and placed on file. Voice vote-Ayes: Seven. Motion

Mrs. Klein encouraged the company to move out of town so that families can enjoy time downtown,
so she cannot support approving the license.
Mr. Boesen commented that the city has had numerous calls for shots fired in the area, including the
parking lot of Flirt's and will eventually be deemed a nuisance property. He also questioned the
expiration date of the application and if they were currently out of compliance.
Kelley Felchle, City Clerk, explained that the application was timely filed, passed all the required
inspections, and it is in order.
Chief Joel Fitzgerald commented that the city has received several shots fired calls at that location but
it has not been designated as a nuisance property.
Major Joe Leibold commented that Captain McGeough has a meeting set to meet with the owners to
discuss possible resolutions of the issues.
Mr. Morrissey commented that there are several different conduct issues and questioned what it takes
to turn the establishment into a nuisance property.
Page 9 of 82
August 16, 2021 Page 6
Chief Fitzgerald explained that despite the calls, the establishment does not meet the threshold of a
nuisance property. He explained the command staff have been assigned to work with the business
owners to resolve the issues prior to deeming the business a nuisance property.
Mr. Feuss question what would happen if council denies the license.
Kelley Felchle explained that the next step would be the appeals process and they would be able to
continuing selling liquor at their establishment while the appeals process is taking place.
Mr. Amos commented that we have gone through this before, and that there is a cost to the city to
defend out position. He questioned if the city has prevailed in the past.
Kelley Felchle commented that generally speaking no, but if the property were to be deemed a
nuisance property, that may affect the license in the future.
Mr. Morrissey commented that he knows that the city would lose if denying the license but it is not a
waste of time to at least have the conversation. He hopes that the way to resolve the issue is to purchase
the establishments and have them move to an adult entertainment establishment.
Mrs. Klein commented that she agrees with Mr. Morrissey that the establishment does not belong
there, and does realize year to year these will be approved. However,when there is gunplay, everyone
is sick and tired of the shootings downtown. Things have been escalating and we should shut it down
now and tighten up our rules.
Mr. Boesen commented that he wants the city to work on the chronic nuisance issue so that there is a
more grounded reason to deny the license.
David Dryer, 3145 W. 4th Street, commented that this business was here first and then the city built
the SportsPlex across the street.
Roll-call vote-Ayes: Five. Nays: Two (Klein and Grieder). Motion carried.
160312 - Amos/Grieder
6. Motion approving Change Order No. 16 with Cardinal Construction, Inc., of Waterloo, Iowa, for a
net increase of$5,115, in conjunction with the Five Sullivan Brothers Convention Center Addition
and Renovation Project, and authorizing the Mayor to execute said document. Roll-call vote-Ayes:
Seven. Motion carried.
David Dryer, 3145 W. 4th Street, commented that in Germany,they take three bids,throw out the high
one and low one, and take the middle bid because they know that one is most reasonable. He
encouraged the city to do the same.

Objective: Discussion of the Housing Needs Assessment.
Brian Schoon, Director of Development at INRCOG, provided an overview of the Housing
Needs Assessment. The Housing Needs Assessment was last completed in 2011 and since that
time housing has changed considerably. The purpose of the assessment is to assess the quality
and affordability of the current housing stock, identify unmet needs, develop a guide for
residential planning and development policies, and to provide data to support applications for
grants,tax credits,etc. Highlights from the assessment include the following: Most homes(82%)
are in good condition, but revitalization needs are extensive, demand for housing programs
outweighs resources, residents appreciate downtown revitalization and want improvements in
other neighborhoods, and increased housing production might be needed if population grows
(e.g. 20 more homes per year if population reaches 71,536 by 2030).
Council members and Mayor Hart discussed the Housing Needs Assessment with Mr. Schoon
and Noel Anderson, Community Planning and Development Director.
Objective: Update on Engineering Department operations.
