HomeMy WebLinkAbout03.01.1999COUNCIL WORK SESSION March 1, 1999 5:05 p.m. Council Chambers Members present: Mayor Rooff, Getty, Murphy, Jordan, Krizek, Gronen, Collier, Anders. Moved by Jordan, seconded by Murphy that the Agenda, as proposed, be approved. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried. The proposed ordinance to adopt the 1997 Uniform Fire and Life Safety Codes was reviewed. Fire Chief Frank Magsamen reported that the Fire Department has been using the 1994 Uniform Fire and Life Safety Codes. There are very few changes, but it is important that we update our ordinance and adopt the codes for insurance rates. The Life Safety Code deals with inside the building and the Uniform Fire Code deals with outside the building. These codes regulate non- residential businesses in the city under Chapter 14 of the City Code of Ordinances. Moved by Getty, seconded by Krizek that the 1997 Uniform Fire and Life Safety Codes be adopted and the ordinance be placed on the council agenda for approval. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried. Rich Earles, Community Development Director, presented the Consolidated One -Year Action Plan. Mr. Earles stated that last year Community Development Board set housing as the number one priority. There are only three items in the plan that do not relate to housing: Neighbors Helping Neighbors curb and gutter for funding in the amount of $120,000, Peoples Community Health Clinic in the amount of $50,000 and Zone 10 of the Sidewalk Repair Program in the amount of $150,000. The proposed funding for each program was reviewed. The applications from Black Hawk Grundy Mental Health for funding in the amount of $100,000 and the Family & Children's Council for funding in the amount of $3,654 were reviewed and the recommendation of the Community Development Board was for zero funding. The applications were denied because the city is focusing on housing, and these two programs did not meet .the criteria. Mayor Rooff suggested that these two programs be referred to the Mayor's Youth Initiative Program. Bruce Meisinger, Finance Manager, reviewed the proposed FY2000 Budget. Mr. Meisinger reported that the 1998/FY2000 assessed valuation is $2,008,729,517 compared to $2,023,129,399 for 1997/FY1999. After rollbacks of 56.4789 percent the increase in assessed valuation is $13,686,375. The increase is lower due to the phase out of property tax on business machinery and equipment and utility values have been lowered. The publication notice will be published at $16.95 per one thousand dollars of valuation. Mr. Meisinger stated that staff is still working on the budget and that the numbers could change. The proposed total budget is $101,698,994. The budget includes Phase II of improvements to the Water Pollution Control facilities in the amount of $14 million and improvements to the Waterloo Airport in the amount of $2.8 million, and state and federal funds for Community Development. Mayor Rooff stated that the cost for operations has stayed level Another work session will be scheduled for Monday, March 8, 1999 on the budget. With no further business before the council, it was moved by Getty, seconded by Jordan that the meeting be adjourned at 6:07 p.m. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.

ORAL PRESENTATIONS 111621 - A teacher from Elk Run Heights stated that she would like everyone to give one-half hour on Tuesday, March 2, 1999 to read with a child. Members of the National Education Association, the American Library Association, Boys & Girls Club of America, International Reading Association and other organizations will be joining together in a nation-wide event to promote reading called "Read Across America." On that day, area educators, school board members and community leaders will be asked to visit a school and spend a short time reading to elementary -age children. "Read Across America" is a national celebration of Dr. Suess's birthday on March 2. She asked that a proclamation be accepted promoting "Read Across America." George Warren, 3638 Inverness Road and owner of Quality Inn, stated that he has been contacted by hotel/motel owners regarding instituting the changes necessary to separate the Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) from the Waterloo Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Warren stated that the seven percent hotel/motel tax was put into place to be used for tourism. Mr. Warren stated that he might not always agree with everything CVB does, but that he has faith,_::,=in Terry Poe-Buschkamp. Mr. Warren stated that he has known Gary Plummer, President of the Chamber of Commerce, since his arrival in Waterloo. Mr. Warren reported that he has spoken to the chamber regarding the amount of rent CVB is paying the chamber. The agreement between the chamber and CVB will make CVB a separate entity on January 1, 2000 and the chamber will no longer receive rent from CVB. Mr. Warren stated that the recent action taken by the chamber to terminate Ms. Buschkamp shows him that the chamber has plans for the hotel/motel funds. Mr. Warren asked the council to exercise Clause 10 in Resolution No. 1981-376 and give the Chamber of Commerce 90 days notice to terminate the contract. Mayor Rooff stated that he will have a meeting with the Chamber of Commerce and it is the city's intent that the spirit of the agreement be honored. Mayor Rooff stated that it is the city's goal to find the Chamber its own place. Mayor Rooff reported that we would like to speed up the process, but maybe not as fast as Mr. Warren would like. Councilperson Getty stated that since it was March 1, 1999, he would like to inquire about the status of Ray Willey's purchase of the Klinefelter building.

The addition will be in conjunction with other remodeling of existing auditoriums in the cinema. The new auditoriums will be of bleacher design and will actually reduce the overall seating capacity.

ORDINANCES TO BE ADOPTED 111644 - Mayor Rooff stated that now was the time for the second reading on the request of Esther Hess and Alabar Plaza, Inc. to rezone from "A-1" Agricultural District to "M-1" Light Industrial District property generally located northeasterly of the Hess and East Shaulis Roads intersection for the proposed development of warehousing and industrial facilities. March 1, 1999 Page 5 ORDINANCES TO BE ADOPTED CONTIUNED Bill Claassen, Wayne Claassen Engineering and Surveying, Inc., submitted a letter from Robert Wilson, Treasurer of Alabar Plaza, Inc. Mr. Wilson's letter states that they do not want to arbitrarily rule out uses that are otherwise allowable under the M-1 zoning classification, with the'exception of salvage yards. This is not a suitable location for salvage yards, and they agree to the stipulations that they will not allow salvage yards within the area. Alabar Plaza, Inc. does not feel the M-1 zoning classification will cause significant problems with increased truck traffic west along Shaulis Road or south along Hess Road since the major highways are to the east and north. If the truck volumes in these areas become too heavy, the city may embargo these streets from truck traffic to direct most trucks to the east and/or north. Mr. Claassen submitted a letter from Robert Wilson, Treasurer of Alabar Plaza, Inc., and himself which addresses the issues and comments that have been made by others concerning the rezoning request. A copy of the letter is on file in the City Clerk's office. Mr. Claassen stated that the project is not urban sprawl, but smart growth. If the city wants the community to grow, you must have areas for that to occur. The city already has two areas for "M-2" Heavy Industrial uses that were created with public funds. This "M-1" zoning will allow the development of a "M-1" Light Industrial area, created with private funds. If this development competes with the city's industrial parks and a business locates or expands in the "M-1" area, that is a benefit to the city and its citizens as long as it expands or locates in Waterloo. Businesses determine where they will locate based on the attributes of one location compared to other locations. Most of this land is not prime or even fair farmland. Over 70 percent of the proposed 85 acres was purchased from the Iowa.Department of Transportation, who stripped the top 10 to 20 inches to build the freeway system. The best use for this area is not residential, but it is for the "M-1" Light Industrial use as recommended by city staff, approved by the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission and been shown in the Long Range Land Use Plan since at least 1993. It is understandable that the Winston Place area neighborhood would like to control all development within 2,000 to 4,000 feet of them as it is a common reaction for people living near undeveloped land. It is important to consider the beneficial effects of the rezoning on the city as a whole. The owners do not believe this is an appropriate location for salvage yards and will not allow this type of development. This is a logical request that will benefit the community as a whole, disturb a minimal amount of farmland, utilize existing infrastructure and provide an area for new and existing businesses to grow in Waterloo without additional expenditures of public funds by the taxpayers. Steve Powell, 1956 Winston Place, stated that he was speaking for the homeowners in the area. Mr. Powell stated that all the homeowners object to the "M-1"'Light Industrial rezoning request. Development is not the problem. The problem is development patterns, putting development in the right place. Mr. Powell stated that councilmembers are stewards of the city, and that development for development sake is not always the way to go. Mr. Powell stated that when we balance the interest of the public, developers and private citizens, there is no profit for the citizens. Mr. Powell stated that everyone in the area has made the biggest investment of their lives. Mr. Powell stated that it is time to revisit how important private citizens are when considering building in the city. A number of residents of Guernsey Addition will also express their concerns to this request. Mr. Powell stated that the rezoning request will take a super majority vote of the council to approve, and the reason for the super majority is because there is a compelling reason, an interest of the people. Mr. Powell urged the council, as stewards, to please reconsider their earlier vote. Bob Wilson, Treasurer of Alabar Plaza, Inc., stated that when they first proposed to acquire the property, they were told they would be able to rezone the property "M-1". Mr. Wilson stated that he can't even fathom this area being residential. Mr. Wilson reported that when they walked the site when the State of Iowa put it up for bid, it was rocky. Mr. Wilson stated that they contacted a person who contracts farming, and he told them it would be impossible to farm the land. Bruce Lehnen, 1465 East Shaulis Road, stated that he represents neighbors in Guernsey Addition. Mr. Lehnen stated that they have the same primary concerns as Mr. Powell. Mr. Lehnen submitted a petition of opposition with over 50 signatures. Mr. Lehnen stated that they are not against development in general. Mitzi Rekward, 3309 Inverness Road, reported that Max Guernsey asked her to i c•l ay uome of the L lri nyu he ]rau dune. Mr. (Jrrer nuey ]rau p l arru for a u l x taut)/ uurrclurrr l ri-l-uiir oh ltuuewood which uvei:l uukra 1.Jr i u pt u j c:cL , and Irc: would irul. uperii1 $4 million on something negative. March 1, 1999 Page 6 ORDINANCES TO BE ADOPTED CONTIUNED Art DeLong, 606 West Parker, stated that Hawkeye Community College is within one-half mike of this area. Mr. DeLong reported that he has been on Shaulis Road when students are going to or leaving Hawkeye Community College, and he is concerned that traffic could be difficult if it develops into a busy area. Mr. DeLong stated that he dreads to see the intersection in the winter, when the wind. is blowing, the snow will stop everything at this intersection. Councilperson Gronen asked if the developers would consider conditional zoning status. Mr. Claassen reported that the developers do not want to limit themselves, except for the salvage yard. Mr. Claassen stated that both developers are responsible people who have lived in this area a long time. Jordan/Murphy that the petitions of opposition, letters and oral comments be received and placed on file. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried. 111645 - Getty/Anders that the request of Esther Hess and Alabar Plaza, Inc. to rezone from "A-1" Agricultural District to "M-1" Light Industrial District property generally located northeasterly of the Hess and East Shaulis Roads intersection, be received,placed on file, considered and passed for the second time. Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard. Councilperson Anders questioned what happens to this request if it is voted down. Jim Walsh, City Attorney, stated if the council denies the request, the property stays zoned as "A-1" Agricultural. District, but that the developers could submit a new proposal to the Planning, Programming and Zoning, Commission. Don Temeyer, City Planner, stated that if the request is denied, it takes four months before a new request is brought back to the council. If the council tables action on this item, it could be reviewed right away by the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission. Murphy/Collier that the request of Esther Hess and Alabar Plaza, Inc. to rezone from "A-1" Agricultural District to "M-1" Light Industrial District property generally located northeasterly of the Hess and East Shaulis Roads intersection, be tabled indefinitely and referred back to the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission. Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard. Councilperson Jordan stated that there is not a lot of opposition to the right development, but the developers need to have a plan, and that the residents want to know what is going into their neighborhood. Mr. Walshstated that the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission would be disappointed if the council sends it back to them without any direction. The commission has already passed the rezoning request as is and sent it to the council. Mr. Walsh suggested that a few of the neighbors meet with the developers and Councilperson Jordan to come up with a proposal to submit to the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission. Councilperson Murphy stated that he would like to see this item tabled indefinitely and sent back to the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission to work out something equitable to all parties because he does not want to violate the rights of the developers or neighbors. Councilperson Jordan stated that he has visited with the neighbors, and there are a lot of concerns. Councilperson Jordan stated that the Long Range Land Use Plan has been in existence since 1973, and he would like to have the plan reviewed. March 1, 1999 Page 7 ORDINANCES TO BE ADOPTED CONTIUNED Councilperson Anders stated that he has followed this request through the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission hearing, and it has come to the council with unanimous approval of the commission. Councilperson Anders stated that it appears to him that its a not in my neighborhood situation. Councilperson Anders stated that it is up to the council to take a stand, and that it is a tough decision. Councilperson Anders stated that in the perfect world we would like to leave it as it is, and that the council has a responsibility to the developers and residents. Councilperson Anders stated that he feels the council should get on with the rezoning request. Councilperson Getty stated that the residents do not have any recommendations, just against "M-1" rezoning. Councilperson Jordan stated that he would like to see this request sent back to the Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission. City Attorney Jim Walsh stated that if the developers were willing to restrict truck volume, the rezoning might be acceptable to the residents. Following discussion, a vote was taken on the motion to table indefinitely with the following result. Ayes: Six. Nays: Getty.
