Oral Presentations continued
Mr. Wilcox stated he spoke to about 30 to 40 people today, most of them are UNI
students, who are willing to join with city crews to try to temporarily put a
dent in the potholes. Mr. Wilcox commented that he stopped by Scott Jordan' s
company today but was unable to speak him. He also went to the city garage this
afternoon but was unable to speak to Steve Decker until tonight when he spoke
briefly with him about a couple of ideas.
Anthony Shawn Hayes, Sr. , 1112 Columbia Street, stated he is the owner of the
Last Level Lounge, 118 E. 11`h Street, and there have been signs posted on the
corner of llth Street and Sycamore Street stating no parking from 6:00 p.m. to
5:00 a.m. , and his business hours are from 8:00 p.m. to 2: 00 a.m. Mr. Hayes
asked if it would be possible to change those times due to the time frame for
his business hours.
Mayor Hurley responded those signs have just been put in at the request of the
neighbors and because of some trouble in that area.
Councilperson Hart reported that late Saturday night, he received several calls
from some people who were a little upset because their cars were actually towed.
They weren't ticketed, they were actually towed and a couple of them didn't
understand why their cars were towed instead of ticketed because it doesn't say
a tow zone on the sign. Councilperson Hart commented that it is a transition
also because it just went from night and day within the past couple of weeks.
Tom Jennings, Police Chief, reported there were four vehicles ticketed and towed
because they were parking on both sides of the street and blocking the street,
and even without the signs you can't park in the street and block the street.
It doesn't allow public safety vehicles to get through, and on that particular
case they were there from 11:30 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. trying to get cars moved and
they started towing vehicles after about 45 minutes. They are parking on both
sides of the street, they are parking in the street and they are basically
shutting down the 1300 block of Sycamore Street, and because of complaints from
other neighbors, they towed the vehicles.
Mr. Hayes commented that the complaints he received from the people are they
understand that from 6:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. you are not suppose to park there.
They did, they paid for it, but they paid for it by being towed without the sign
stated a towing zone.
Mayor Hurley commented that he doesn' t know if the city' s traffic ordinance says
we have to have a sign that says towing, but when it says no parking probably
one of the measures for dealing with the no parking includes towing.
Mr. Hayes commented that is mostly a business area with the Waterloo Food Bank,
Powers Industry and Crystal Ice Distribution and really not much residence, and
he is trying to figure out who is complaining as a resident. There are only a
couple of houses that are listed on Sycamore Street.
Mayor Hurley noted the complaint could have come from any resident, but it is
also the responsibility of law enforcement to watch those parking zones, and
there have been complaints in that area. When the street is blocked, fire
trucks, ambulances and police cars can't get through when it gets serious.
Mayor Hurley commented that if Mr. Hayes wants this changed, he would have to
convince at least four council members who recently enacted the ordinance to
change it; otherwise it is as it is.
Mr. Hayes commented he understands in case of an emergency, the police and fire
departments and ambulances have to get to his business. He just feels that it
is focused on his business. He does have access ways from the front and rear of
his building. As far as the street, he doesn't know what to say other than
widening the street.
Mayor Hurley stated he can say with some assurance that it is not focused on Mr.
Hayes' business, it is focused on keeping the street open and addressing the
complaints. Mayor Hurley suggested giving this a change as it has only been a
month, lets see how it works. If this doesn't work, then Mr. Hayes can ask his
councilperson or any councilperson to get the wheels cranking to do another
adjustment.
Councilperson Hart noted that the OP was another one that council worked with
Traffic, and he asked if it is going to be standard practice that we are going
to tow as the way it was done the other night. Chief Jennings responded
regarding the OP it has to be 30 days from the time it posted in the paper, but
yes it will be the same.

Subsidiary of Waterloo, Iowa in conjunction with F.Y. 2008 Street Reconstruction
Program, Contract No. 736, be received, placed on file and "Resolution approving

Councilperson Greenwood commented that Louis Starks, Contracts and Grants
Coordinator, reviewed the bid from Aspro, Inc. and feels they complied with the
Good Faith requirements. The WBE was 11 percent of the total contract, which
exceeds the WBE goal of 2 percent, and the MBE was 4 percent of the total
contract.
Councilperson Hart asked how the reconstruction project will impact what we are
seeing relating to our streets.
Mayor Hurley noted that potholes are not part of the street reconstruction
project, and that the city hopes to cover the potholes prior to the
reconstruction project. Mayor Hurley noted that these are two different funding
streams and they are not interchangeable.

GETTILD In addition, it complied with the City's Contracting Policy's Good Faith requirements by
Ward 3 its commitment to subcontract to Watco, a WBE firm, items in the amount of
$355,294.00, or 11% of the total contract amount. This figure exceeds the stated WBE
QUENTIN M. goal of 2%. The MBE commitment was satisfied with a commitment to utilize D.C.

Dear Mayor and Council Members:
REGINALD A.
SCHMITT As you may recall, back in November of 2007, the City of Waterloo sponsored A-Line
Ward 1 EDS, Inc. for State incentives to add jobs to expand at their existing location at 808
CAROLYN Dearborn Avenue. That application was successful and the attached contract between
COLE A-Line and the Iowa Department of Economic Development outlines A-Line's investment
of over $1.2 million in new construction, building remodeling, as well as michniery,
equipment, etc. This expansion project will also bring the creation of 9 new jobs and the
HAROLD retention of 5 jobs over the next 3years with a salaryrange of $30,000 to $36,000.
GETTY g
Ward 3
The contract awards:
QUENTIN M. ➢ $45,000 loan/forgivable loan through the CEBA Program

Ward 4The expansion project is located within the City of Waterloo's Consolidated Urban
RON Revitalization Area (CURA), which will provide local tax abatement incentives. A-Line is
WELPER building a new 13,488 sq. ft. building on their site, with an estimated construction cost of

promissory notes for repayment, as the local sponsor, should the project fail to meet
BOB requirements.

RE: Request for Due Diligence time period extension to the Development Agreement between
COUNCIL the City of Waterloo and MAKO WATERLOO CORPORATION for the restoration and
MEMBERS rehabilitation of the Rath Administration Building at 1515 Sycamore Street.
Dear Mayor and Council:
REGINALDCHMIT A. Transmitted herewith is an amendment to the development agreement for the redevelopment of
SCHIv1ITT P g p
Wira t the Rath Administration Building at 1515 Sycamore with MAKO WATERLOO
CORPORATION of Vista, California. The proposed amendment extends the Due Diligence
CAROLYN period to March 24, 2008, and the City of Waterloo is required to have the asbestos in the
COLE building removed by July 18, 2008.
ward 2
The developer has requested the extension, noting that when the original development
HARot.D agreement was approved in earlyJanuaryof thisyear,that theyhad less than 60-days to
GETTI g Pp y
IYard complete their Due Diligence. The developer noted that an extension to March 24, 2008 would
be sufficient enough to complete their Due Diligence period. The City would have concerns
QLEVTIN M. with an extension in a typical development agreement; however,the developer has been actively
HART working on this project and getting environmental consultants lined up for the project,as well as
Ward 4 other tasks.
RON
WELDER The addendum will also allow the City of Waterloo more time for asbestos removal. As the
Ward 5 existing asbestos survey is nine years old,the City and consulting partners have recommended
that a new survey be conducted to account for additional methods, as well as potential
BOB deterioration or adverse conditions that may have impacted asbestos containing material in the
GREENWOOD building due to its prolonged vacant status.
At-Large
SIEVE Therefore,we would ask that the City Council approve the extension of the Due Diligence period
SCHMITT for the restoration and redevelopment of the Rath Administration Building between the City of
At-Lame Waterloo and MAKO WATERLOO CORPORATION. If you have any questions or need any
additional information regarding this matter, please contact our office.

COUNCIL RECORD
126746 - This being the time and place of public hearing, the Mayor called for written
and oral objections and there were none.
Michelle Weidner, Chief Financial Officer, reviewed "Steady As We Grow, City of

Services, Sewer Fund - funded by user fees, How Are Sewer User Fees Spent,
Garbage Fund - funded by user fees, How Are Garbage User Fees Spent, Road Use
Tax Fund- funded by state taxes, How Are Road Use Tax Funds Used. Ms. Weidner
noted that the Road Use Tax funds have remained fairly flat over the past seven

the General Fund in FYE09. Local Option Tax Fund - funded by the one cent sales
tax, How Are Local Option Tax Funds Used, Community Development/Housing - funded
primarily with federal grants, How Are Federal Block Grant Funds Used, How Are

funds (repaid with debt service levy) and by federal and state grants, How Are
Capital Project Funds Used, Debt Service Fund - funded primarily by property

for police and fire. Other areas in the General Fund include: Building
Inspections, Animal Control, Public Works, Parking Ramps and Lots, Airport,
Central Garage, Public Bus Transportation, Human Rights Commission, Mayor' s
Youth Programming, Library, Parks, Recreation (golf, sports, Young Arena, Center
For The Arts, Youth Pavilion) , Planning & Zoning, Five Sullivan Brothers
Convention Center, Mayor and Council, City Clerk/Finance, Facilities
Maintenance, Management Information Services, Property and Liability Insurance,
City Attorney, Human Resources, Memorial Hall. Ms. Weidner noted that in FY08
the city budgeted for 506 employees with 400 of those employees paid through the
General Fund. Ms. Weidner reviewed What Activities are General Fund Property
Tax Dollars Used For which showed that 73 percent of the General Fund property
tax dollars goes to police, fire and building inspection; 15 percent for
Library, Leisure Services, Center for The Arts, Youth Pavilion; 1 percent for
Planning, Economic Development; 1 percent for Road Use Tax Employee Benefits;
3 .5 percent for Airport, Parking and MET bus service; 1 percent for Human
Rights; and 5.5 percent for Administration, City Facilities. In reviewing What
Types of Things Does The City Pay For Withy My General Fund Property Tax Dollar,
Ms. Weidner noted that 70 percent is devoted to personnel costs, including
benefits. Ms. Weidner reviewed What Is My Total Property Tax Dollar Used For,
What Types of Things Does the City Pay For With My Total Property Tax Dollar
(including Debt Payments) . Ms. Weidner reviewed the Valuation Trends for the
City of Waterloo and reported that the city has $3 .47 Billion assessed property
value, but due to the 44 percent rollback figure, the city has $1.99 Billion
taxable property value, representing 3 .11 new growth in total assessed value and
3 .65 percent new growth in taxable value for FYE09. Ms. Weidner reviewed Items

most cases, personnel (pay increases, health insurance increase, GASB 45 post-
employment health insurance, Police & Fire pension decrease and decreased
retirement payments) , which makes for $891, 853 increase in personnel costs.
Ms. Weidner explained GASB 45 are the new Governmental Accounting Standards
Board requirements for governments to recognize costs for providing post-
employment health benefits while still employed. We have been booking this as
an expense. Private industries began booking these liabilities a couple of
years ago. The city provides post-employment health insurance on a graduated
scale for those hired prior to July 1, 1990. The actuary hired by the city has
estimated the cost to be $25.5 million. State law requires that retirees be
allowed to purchase health insurance at the same cost as active employee. The
actuary assumes the city' s subsidy at $9.5 million for a total $35.4 million.
The total does not need to be booked all at once and we have a period of years
to pick up the liability. The actuary indicated the city would need to book
$512, 000 for FYE09, with a General Fund share of $399, 000.
Ms. Weidner noted that the police and fire pension decreased from 25.48 percent
of gross payroll to 18.75 percent of gross payroll, which is a 26.41 percent
decrease.
Ms Weidner reviewed significant revenue changes impacting the FYE09 General Fund
Budget include: increased gaming revenue, increased airport fees, increased
building inspection fees, decreased police court fines revenue, and elimination
of retirement payout borrowing for a net significant revenue change of $16,336.
Ms. Weidner explained the other significant non-personnel changes include:
funding a portion of road use tax employee benefits using the benefit levy,
increase forestry right-of-way funded by the general fund, increase in self-
funded workers' compensation insurance, increase in anticipated fuel costs,
increase in facilities maintenance expenses due to Facilities Maintenance plan
not adopted in FYE08, add expenses for Downtown Maintenance, including RiverLoop
Expo Public Market, add MyEntreNet funding, add city newsletter and other
expenses and revenues.
Ms. Weidner explained the property taxes required to support the FYE09 Budget.
The property tax will increase 5.54 percent, with a proposed levy rate of
$18.366687. Residential property will see 1.32 percent tax increase, commercial
property tax will increase 6.39 percent and industrial property tax will
decrease 2.13 percent. Ms. Weidner noted commercial tax is affected more
because they did not have as large as a roll back and received a larger
equalization order set by the State of Iowa. Ms. Weidner commented that if you
have been reading the newspaper, Black Hawk County's property tax increased 6.01
percent and Cedar Falls' property tax increased 5.56 percent.

CITY OF WATERLOO, IOWA
COUNCIL RECORD
Ms. Weidner noted the full presentation will be put on the city' s website. She
thanked Joyce Schroeder, the Finance Department staff, Mayor Hurley, city
council and all city departments for their work on the budget.
Mayor Hurley thanked Michelle Weidner, the Finance Department and all department
heads as they did a good job falling his guidelines. Mayor Hurley clarified
that the garbage and sewer departments are funded with user fees; the Road Use
Tax which funds snow removal, pothole repairs, traffic signals and streets, is
funded by state fuel taxes collected on a per capita basis on fuel, car
registrations, new car purchases, etc. ; that road reconstruction and overlay are
funded with the Local Option Sales Tax and not property taxes; that Community
Development and Housing funds come from the federal government. Mayor Hurley
noted that items such as debt service and all general fund items are paid with
property taxes
Mayor Hurley commented that he feels overall this is a very fair and balanced
budget that represents a strategy/policy that says we are not going to change
programming or services, that keeps the workforce stable to maintain services
and keep a competitive workforce. This is a budget that will be challenging for
staff and the mayor to carry out. This budget includes an amount to close the
gap in non-bargaining salaries. Mayor Hurley noted that with the $512, 000
required by GASB 45, he suggested a policy change for retiree insurance coverage
that would have asked employees hired prior to July 1990 to contribute, but that
was pulled from the table. Mayor Hurley commented that his plan was premature
and did not give enough notice, so he is addressing GASB 45 another way in the
budget. Mayor Hurley stated he is looking forward to closing this budget out,
and we are addressing challenges. Mayor noted that the presentation by Ms.
Weidner will be posted on the city' s website and copies will be available in the
City Clerk' s office.

ORAL PRESENTATIONS
126748 - Ryan Madison, 650 Dawson Street, addressed the council regarding the gentleman's
request before the council last week to reevaluate the parking, and the city
told him to work around the parking. Mr. Madison noted that he has called the
city several times when the church on Burton and Dawson blocks him from getting
through. Mr. Madison stated when citizens call about the train blocking
traffic, they are told to go around. Mr. Madison noted that there are not very
many minority businesses and then the city told the gentleman to work around the
new parking, and there aren't any houses on that street. There already is a
lack of minority businesses. Last week the gentleman asked how wide does the
street need to be for the fire department to get through, and the city could
have answered him. Mr. Madison stated that he thinks downtown Waterloo is
nothing but taverns, and we need to make it more family friendly. Mr. Madison
stated it seems to him that the city is smothering small minority businesses.
Mayor Hurley responded he does not think that is what the city is doing, and he
will ask the traffic department to look at Dawson and Burton when the church has
services.

COUNCIL RECORD
126747 - Councilperson Getty commented that the presentation showed an increase of
$115, 000 for fuel and asked how much per gallon was used to arrive at this
figure. Mayor Hurley responded that $3 .15 per gallon for unleaded and $3 .40 for
diesel, and it was based on U.S. Department of Energy projections.
Councilperson Welper stated that Waterloo has the distinction of having one of
the highest tax rates in the state. Councilperson Welper noted that this is his
seventh year and each year the rate has declined. Councilperson Welper thanked
Mayor Hurley, the Finance Department and all departments for moving our rate
backwards.
Mayor Hurley noted that this reflects back to the department heads and the
people who work for them. We are dealing with the cards dealt to us and
maintaining services. Mayor Hurley noted that he felt it would be irresponsible
if more were cut from this budget because we would have had to cut into
personnel. Mayor Hurley commented that the assessed value and taxable value
shows some real growth of 3.5 percent in the tax base.
Cole/Reggie Schmitt
that "Resolution approving FYE09 Budget at a levy rate of $18.36687" , be
adopted.
Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard.
Councilperson Steve Schmitt commented that last Thursday morning there was
mention of a retiree health insurance contribution, and based on phone calls and
conversations, he wished to apologize to current employees and retirees for all
the anxiety that was caused by misinformation and some retirees even thought the
city was pulling their insurance. Councilperson Steve Schmitt noted that during
his campaign last fall there were concerns about the city' s tax rate.
Councilperson Steve Schmitt stated he feels the city is moving in the right
direction, but a 5.5 percent increase is not right. Councilperson Steve Schmitt
noted he appreciates Ms. Weidner' s comments about the state' s equalization order
and rollback factor, but it involves getting a handle on our spending locally,
and it comes down to making hard decisions. Councilperson Steve Schmitt
commented that he was looking at the numbers proposed by Mayor Hurley for city
departments after the retiree health insurance was pulled from the table, which
includes reductions in overtime and vehicle replacement for the fire department,
and reductions for travel/training and fuel in the police department, and he
asked if these are expected to be real numbers.
Mayor Hurley responded he will refer back to the $512, 000 that we have to
recognize as an obligation this year because of the new standards. Taxpayers
are going to pay for all of this cost, which is $0.25 on the levy. Mayor Hurley
explained he proportioned the cost using a formula across the board to come up
with $188, 000 of the $512, 000, with $188, 000 equally 9.2 percent. Mayor Hurley

noted that the Fire and Police Chiefs have the freedom to make line amendments.
In the Fire Department budget if they don't want to use overtime, then you could
start looking at closing fire stations. If Police Chief Jennings doesn't want
to use overtime, he can use another line item. Mayor Hurley commented that he
did not touch the revenue side, just the expense side.
Councilperson Steve Schmitt commented his sense is the vast majority of the
budget is people and benefits to the people and the answer is reduction of
people through attrition and expanded sharing of services. Councilperson Steve
Schmitt noted that he was a member of a Blue Ribbon Committee for Black Hawk
County that came up with 19 recommendations. Councilperson Steve Schmitt
commented he has been attending meetings with Frank Magsamen at Black Hawk
County, and there has been a change in department heads on the idea of merging
with other departments and merging with the city, and he feels now is the time
to work with Black Hawk County. Councilperson Steve Schmitt stated he knows
Mayor Hurley has been involved with talks about sharing services, but he senses
that it is not progressing. Councilperson Steve Schmitt recommended that the
council have meetings to cut this budget, or revert back to last year' s budget.
Councilperson Greenwood noted that this is his seventh budget going back
several chiefs. What he hears is most important is response time, and that
police officers and fire rescue time is most important to our citizens.
Councilperson Greenwood commented that 73 percent of the general fund budget
goes to public safety and their benefits, and he doesn't think now is the time
to change that policy as it is a quality of life issue because we are properly
staffed. Councilperson Greenwood commented that the city has 28E agreements
with other entities who are not properly staffed, and we have the Haz Mat that
covers the Cedar Valley, and we have the proper staff and equipment to be there.
Councilperson Greenwood stated he feels that we have done due diligence and he
will support this budget.
Councilperson Reggie Schmitt noted that the council lowered the levy rate this
year. Councilperson Reggie Schmitt explained that the $22, 000 proposed by Mayor
Hurley is less than percent of the Fire Department's $10 million budget.
Councilperson Reggie Schmitt stated this budget keeps the services the citizens
deserve, we have a balanced budget and the levy rate is going down.
Mayor Hurley stated that he attended a Future Steering Committee meeting this
morning focusing on expanded sharing services. Mayor Hurley stated the city has
a good dialogue going with Black Hawk County, and the city has been at the table
or at the door at their invitation every time. Mayor Hurley noted that there
were talks about when Dick King retires could our City Engineer take over, but
that was not a good fit, but he believes that some day we will make a break
thru. Will we have a Black Hawk County public safety, he doesn't know. Mayor
Hurley noted we currently share services for our Library, MIS, Leisure Services,
Building Maintenance, Streets and Central Garage. Mayor Hurley guessed the city
would need a $18.16 levy to have a budget where our taxpayers would be writing a

smaller check, and he doesn't know how we could do that without shutting fire
stations, closing the library or the Center For The Arts.
Councilperson Cole stated she does not want to leave our citizens with the
impression that we are on a slippery slope. Councilperson Cole noted this is
her fifth budget, and it has gotten easier and it is on the right track. The
city has contractual obligations with a 4 percent salary increase, and our
health insurance costs goes up. Councilperson Cole stated she feels we are
managing very responsibly and taxpayers need to recognize that, and she doesn't
want to leave them with any anxiety.
Councilperson Hart commented that this is his first budget process. It is never
an easy decision to increase or decrease or find where to cut. Councilperson
Hart commented that he can't say that everything he hoped for happened, but this
has been an interesting process, and it is easier to sit on the outside.
Councilperson Hart stated he has serious concerns about all the work the
department heads do on a daily basis, and he takes his hat off to all department
heads, it' s not easy.
Mayor Hurley commented it a series of tough decisions, but this is a
responsible, good budget, and we can make it work.

Members absent were: Evans, Fossell, Hartleip and Orchard.
Others present: Don Temeyer,Noel Anderson, Aric Schroeder, Chris Western, Shane Graham, and Tim

It was moved by Craft, seconded by Grimm to approve the minutes as submitted. Motion carried
unanimously.
III. Financial Report: October 2007
Temeyer gave the financial report, noting that the budget is currently on target for the year.
It was moved by Grimm, seconded by Loveless to receive and place on file the financial report for
October 2007. Motion carried unanimously.
IV. Oral Presentations
No Oral Presentations were given.
V. Agenda Items
A. Street Naming
1. Request by the City of Waterloo to rename portions of Mobile Street, Warneka Street, or Quincy
Street to "Jimmie Porter Way".
Hart noted that he had spoken with the family of Jimmie Porter, and they have noted that they would like
to look into possibly renaming Mobile Street from Martin Luther King Jr. Drive to Ricker Street, and has
asked for additional time to contemplate this decision. Hart noted that he would recommend tabling the
item until details are sorted out. Hart noted that in previous years, the family has discussed renaming a
street in the vicinity. Thorson noted that in the past, it was discussed to rename Warneka Street at that
time, but nothing ever materialized. Thorson noted with this current request, some address changes
would be needed on either Quincy Street or Warneka Street if those streets change names. Thorson also
noted that if Mobile Street were renamed from Ricker Street, south to Adams Street, there would be no
address changes.
Burt questioned what the process would be if the request were to change the naming of Mobile Street
from Ricker Street, south to MLK Drive. Thorson noted that if Mobile Street were going to be renamed
'Planning and Zoning Commission
December 4,2007
south of Adams Street, a notice to property owners would need to be mailed out, as well as notifying
utility companies. Thorson noted that address changes are big issues, noting that residents, as well as the
Cunningham School would need to change stationary, checks, other mailings, etc.
Loveless noted that he would like to see the entire length of Mobile Street from Ricker Street to MLK
Drive renamed, but wants to know what the correct process is for handling a situation such as this.
Temeyer noted that property owners affected by the street renaming would have to be notified so that the
residents are aware that their address could possibly be changed, and that they are able to speak on this
matter.
George noted that the most efficient way to handle this situation would be not to table the motion, and to
not recommend the request, and have a new request resubmitted for the renaming of Mobile Street from
Ricker Street to MLK Drive, and chose to rescind his previous motion to table the request, with both Hart
and Burt agreeing to that comment. Powers questioned Thorson that there would be no address changes
from Ricker Street to Adams Street. Thorson noted that this was correct.
George made a motion to not recommend this current recommendation on the agenda, with Grimm
seconding the motion. Burt noted that he does not want this request to ultimately die, questioning if there
can be a stipulation added to the motion, such as that item needs to be addressed at the next meeting in
January.
Loveless questioned what would be the process if it was approved at this meeting to allow for the name
change of Mobile Street from Ricker Street to Adams Street, and address the rest of the road at a later
meeting. Temeyer noted that the Commission could do a partial name change at this time, and receive an
additional request for the rest of the name change at a later time. Powers noted that he would direct to
staff to notify residents of the possible name change of Mobile Street from Adams Street to MLK Drive,
and then bring the item back at a later date. Grimm noted that he would like to see this current request
not go through at this time according to its wording, and would rather have a new request submitted next
month, asking for the renaming of the entire length of Mobile Street between Ricker Street and MLK
Drive.
It was moved by George, seconded by Grimm to not approve the current name change request as
submitted. Motion carried 6-3 with Burt, Hart and Loveless voting against.
B. Vacates/Encroachments
1. Request by the City of Waterloo to vacate the platted alley in Block 4 of Riverside Addition adjacent
to the Former Rath Administration Building at 1515 Sycamore Street.
Andera gave the staff report, noting the City is requesting the approval to vacate the platted alley for the
purpose of adding additional land area to the block that the former Rath Administration Building
currently sits on. Andera noted that the request would not appear to have a negative impact on the
surrounding neighborhood, as well as pedestrian and traffic movements in the area, as the alley is
underutilized. Andera noted that it appears there are no utilities that will be affected if the alley is
vacated, however, there is an overhead electric line to the north of the alley, and if needed, it may be
necessary to dedicate an easement over a portion of the lot to the north of the administration building.
Andera noted that vacating the alley, and dedicating additional land to the site may potentially offer an
additional incentive to a prospective redeveloper for the property.
Burt questioned what the reasoning was for vacating the alley at this time. Andera noted that the alley
would be vacated for future planning efforts, as well as noting that there is very minimal use of the alley
by the public, and it appears to be unneeded.

It was moved by Moser, seconded by Powers to approve the request to vacate. Motion carried
unanimously.
2. Request by Clubhouse Iowa, LLC for an Encroachment Agreement to allow a freestanding sign to
encroach 2' into the public right-of-way of Sears Street and to allow three private light poles to
encroach 1.5' into the public right-of-way of Crossroads Boulevard adjacent to the Advanced Auto
building at 2010 Sears Street.
Schroeder gave the staff report, noting the applicant is requesting approval of the encroachment
agreement for the purpose of allowing a pole sign and three light poles to encroach into public right-of-
way on both Sears Street and Crossroads Boulevard. Schroeder noted that if it were determined that such
a pedestrian sidewalk is or will be needed in the future, and alternative option would be to require an
easement over a portion of the property behind the sign to allow for a public sidewalk to get around the
encroaching sign. Schroeder however noted that there appears not to be a sufficient amount of room to
fit a sidewalk along Sears Street between the existing roadway and the encroaching sign. It was noted
that even without the encroaching sign there would still only be about 6' between back of curb and the
property line, which would still be very difficult to get a sidewalk along. Schroeder also noted that there
are currently 3 light poles along the south side of the property along Crossroads Boulevard that are
encroaching 1.5' into the City right-of-way, specifically noting that there is an 8" sanitary sewer ling
within a utility easement along Crossroads Boulevard, which is 20' north of the property line where the
private light poles are located, as well as other utilities such as gas, telephone, etc. Schroeder noted that
Zoning Ordinance does have a required setback for light poles; however, they are not permitted within
City right-of-way.
Moser questioned if this request is similar to the encroachment agreement request that occurred at 174
West 13th Street, when the hired contractor built a new storage building 1' into City right-of-way,
specifically noting that precedence was set by that request. Temeyer noted that this request is somewhat
different, noting that the contractor was told by the Engineering Department how to stay away from these
utilities, but chose to ignore that information. Thorson noted that the site plan for the new building
showed the new sign and light poles on private property, and noted that it was construction mistakes that
happened, specifically noting that the Engineering Department is opposed to the request, and have the
contractor move the sign and lights to their correct locations. Moser questioned what the other
alternative for the contractor would be for relocating the parking lot lights. Schroeder noted that it would
appear the only other option would be to affix the lights to the building, and have them shine out over the
parking lot.
Craft noted that when Crossroads Boulevard was laid out in the late 1960's, the developer platted a 25'
easement around the entire boulevard for utilities, and each utility had their own designated place within
that easement.
Rod Booth of Nagle Signs noted that prior to construction of the new sign, stakes had been laid out, and
when it is was time to construct the new sign, there had been grading done in the area where the new sign
was to be place, changing the terrain of the land. Booth noted that because of that, the stakes had been
moved, which the sign installers were not aware of, noting this is the reason the sign was placed in the
Sears Street right-of-way. Booth noted that the property owner did receive notice from the Engineering
Department that the sign was in right-of-way, and he did meet with staff and offered to cut the pole off
below grade and move the sign. Craft noted that he felt it was the obligation of the owner and hired
engineer to get the lights and signs in their correct locations.
It was moved by Craft, seconded by Powers to deny the request for an encroachment agreement.
Motion carried unanimously.

C. Annexations/Severances
1. Request by Robert and Rita Welter for severance from the City of Waterloo of approximately 40
acres generally located at 4012 Leversee Road one mile north of West Airline Highway for the
purpose of being annexed into the City of Cedar Falls.
Anderson gave the staff report, noting the applicants are requesting approval to be severed (de-annexed)
from the City of Waterloo for the purpose of being acquired by Cedar Falls and incorporated into the city
limits of Cedar Falls. Anderson noted that the City of Waterloo has plans for the expansion of utilities in
this area when later phases of MidPort America are platted out and developed. Anderson noted that the
area in and around the applicants property have the capability of being serviced by utilities when a
project or projects are proposed for that area, and that the City of Waterloo owns 240 acres surrounding
the property in question on the north, east, and south side. Anderson noted that the City of Waterloo has
worked with the FAA for release of this land from the Airport for development purposes, which was
recently approved. Anderson noted that the property is within the Airport Multimodal Tax Increment
Finance District, which is setup to allow the City to extend public infrastructure and other improvements
for the development of the land. Anderson noted that the applicants have entered into an Acquisition
Contract with the City of Cedar Falls, and intend to sell their land at a future date, as well as noting there
is no pending project, as the contract offers a life estate to the applicants, and that the applicants have
never requested any additional services in the past. Anderson noted that the site was annexed into the
City of Waterloo in 1946, and the applicants have resided at the site since 1959. Anderson noted that the
applicants have lived at this property for 48 years, and have been satisfied with services until severance
was offered as a condition of the purchase. Anderson noted that City of Waterloo has provided multiple
services to this area, such as seal-coating Leversee Road, as well as noting the Waterloo Police
department has responded to 174 calls in this area this year.
Anderson noted that the City has made past infrastructure improvements with the future plans of
extension to serve this area in mind, as well as noting, the area is within easy access of Highway 218
from the Lone Tree Road interchange. Anderson noted that the City of Waterloo and the Cedar Valley
Coalition have worked on a plan to common utilities and infrastructure for savings to the benefit of both
cities, and pursuit of a tax sharing plan for the development of the area, however no such agreement has
been established. Anderson noted that there would not appear to be a logical reason behind changing
corporate jurisdictions for a speculative parcel of land that can be serviced by the existing corporate
entity, as well as noting, due to recent record years of new construction in Waterloo, the City will need to
continue to look for future phases for its business and industrial parks, and to keep land options open for
interested prospects.
Anderson noted that the Planning and Zoning Commission will make their recommendation, and the City
Council will then vote on the matter. Anderson noted that if the City Council denies the request, the
applicant, if still wanting to seek out severance, would need to file an involuntary application with the
State of Iowa's City Development Board. If the CDB were to approve the severance, a referendum
would be held requiring approval by Waterloo voters. Anderson noted that the request to sever does not
meet any requirements for a more uniform boundary or for the gaining of services through annexation to
the City of Cedar Falls, does not appear logical for the immediate or future development of the area, and
noted the site is located within the Primary Growth Area within the City of Waterloo.
Craft noted that the Waterloo Water Works did extend a 12"water main along Leversee Road from
Airline Highway, north to the railroad tracks, and noted that there is no waterline on the Cedar Falls side,
and Waterloo water was used to service properties in Cedar Falls in this area. Craft also noted that if the
applicant's property were to be severed into Cedar Falls, it is possible that water and other infrastructure
could not be extended across approximately 1300' of property frontage to serve areas to the north that
would still be located within Waterloo. Craft noted that if the property were to be severed, and
permission was granted to extend water and infrastructure across the applicant's property, the City would
get no return on their investment, as there would be no water sales from that property. Craft noted it

would not be good planning to have this 38-acre chunk of land be removed from the City, as it would
interrupt development in this area.
Dave Welter, son of the applicants, noted that his parents have lived there since 1959, and moved to this
particular piece of property to begin a career in farming. Welter noted that they are here today to work
within the guidelines of the system, and to come up with a fair and equitable solution to his parent's
request. Welter noted that his parents have tried to work with the City in the past, without success, as
well as noting, his parents have had tremendous amount of stress due to whether to sell their land or not.
Welter noted that the City did put forth an offer a few years back, but nothing ever materialized of it due
to the City not following through on it. Welter noted that 6 months ago, the City of Cedar Falls
approached his parents, and offered them a lifetime lease, the full-assessed value, as well as extending
services into the property. Welter noted that Cedar Falls would allow Waterloo the option to tie into
water and sewer services in the future free of charge through an agreement. Welter noted that of the 174
police calls to the area, none have been requested at his parent's property, and the majority of those calls
were going to the Gas Light Trailer Park, as well as noting, when his father was involved in an accident
with train on Leversee Road, Cedar Falls Police were the first to respond, and when Waterloo Police
arrived, the two police departments were arguing on who is responsible for investigating the accident.
Welter also noted the closest fire station is a little over a mile west on Lone Tree Road.
Jim Sheerer, attorney for the applicants, noted that he is aware that if the applicant's property is severed
into Cedar Falls, then the services that Cedar Falls extends would be available for Waterloo to hook onto,
and could be extended even further to develop the remaining land on the east side of Leversee Road in
Waterloo. Sheerer also noted that his clients have been offered market value for their property, but they
are unable to accept the offer, as well as noting that they have been within the City of Waterloo since
1946, and they have not benefited from the services. Sheerer noted that Waterloo should look at this deal
as a great benefit to the City, and does not understand why the City of Waterloo has not taken this deal.
Moser noted that the City of Cedar Falls has made a reasonable offer to the property owners, and if the
City of Waterloo were to offer the same, would it be considered. Sheerer noted that his clients have tried
working with the City, but have not come to an agreement, as well as noting, that he has heard that the
offer by Cedar Falls would not be matched. Sheerer also noted that he and his clients are not partial on
who they work with.
Craft noted they he sees no benefit to Waterloo to purchase services such as water and sewer from Cedar
Falls to service this area, as the City has the capability of servicing the area with its own utilities. Sheerer
noted that this appears to be a good deal for Waterloo, and once again, is unsure why Waterloo does not
want to enter a deal such as this. Craft noted that cities the size of Waterloo or Cedar Falls normally
serve utilities to the properties within their city limits as utilities are needed, and do not turn to other
cities to provide services. Craft noted that the sharing of city services is more visible in smaller
communities, and not in larger communities. Craft also noted that it would be rather unusual to have to
negotiate with Cedar Falls to extend services once a prospect is found for the land east of Leversee Road,
as this is typically not the way situations such as these are handled.
It was moved by Craft, seconded by George to deny the request for severance. Motion carried
unanimously.
D. Hearings—Zoning Amendments
1. Request by the City of Waterloo for an amendment to the City of Waterloo Zoning Ordinance,
creating multiple amendments and updates and rescinding the City of Waterloo Zoning Ordinance
No. 2479 adopted February 3, 1969, and adopting a new City of Waterloo Zoning Ordinance in lieu
there of.
- 5 -
Planning and Zoning Commission
December 4,2007
Schroeder noted that staff, as well as Commission members have been working on the revision of the
Ordinance for almost 2 years. Schroeder noted that there would be numerous areas of the Zoning
Ordinance that would be amended, such as, considering additional Design Review within the Highway
63 and Highway 21 corridors qnd Board of Adjustment review changes. Schroeder noted that a
contractor who builds shed buildings with vertical steel siding has contacted staff, and the smallest sheds
they construct are 200 SF. Schroeder noted that currently, the Zoning Ordinance allows for a 120 SF
shed with vertical steel siding, and anything above 120 SF would be prohibited by the Ordinance.
Schroeder noted that staff requests that the provision still remains the same.
Steve Finnegan noted that he has been in the shed building business for 9 years, and today, people need
more space to store items. Finnegan noted that he felt steel siding was far more superior to either wood
or vinyl siding, and his buildings fit into the neighborhoods just fine. Finnegan noted that being limited
to 120 SF maximum, is limiting his business, and noted a specific situation where a customer lived next
door to a commercial property with a metal building, and Finnegan noted to them that they cannot have
vertical metal siding on their residential property.
Grimm questioned Finnegan on how often he receives calls to build larger steel buildings. Finnegan
noted that he receives calls for buildings larger than 120 SF very frequently. George questioned if a
horizontal steel siding could be used, rather than vertical. Finnegan noted that it is a cost and availability
issue.
It was moved by Burt, seconded by Craft to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
It was moved by Burt, seconded by Powers to approve the Zoning Ordinance as amended, and to
exempt accessory buildings up to 200 SF from requiring a building permit. Motion carried 8-1 with
George voting against.
D. Discussion/Possible Action Items
Schroeder noted that the regular monthly Planning and Zoning Commission meeting would fall on
January 1, 2008, and staff recommends changing that meeting to January 8, 2008 to avoid a conflict with
the holiday.
It was moved by Craft, seconded by Powers to move the meeting date. Motion carried unanimously.
Both Hart and George noted that this would be their last Commission meeting, as Hart would be taking
the Ward 4 City Council Seat, and George's term with the Human Rights Commission is expiring at the
end of the year. Both Hart and George noted that they have appreciated their time they got to spend on
the Commission.
VI. Adjournment
With no further business to discuss, Hart declared the meeting adjourned at 6:05 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Aric A. Schroeder,
Secretary
