ORAL PRESENTATIONS
119298 - Marcia Courbat, 1100 Mitchell Avenue, spoke on a back-up sewer problem in her
area. Ms. Courbat stated there is a persistent problem involving the waste
water line running in the alley between Mitchell Avenue and Bourland Street -
Randolph Street to West Ninth Street. On January 10, 2004 the sewer line was
plugged and backed waste water into the basements of several homes located
along it. Ms. Courbat reported this has been a regularly repeated event on
this sewer line for the past three decades. Ms. Courbat stated that the alley
runs down the hill and then flattens, with the last three homes getting the
most sewer backup. Ms. Courbat stated they had a special plug put in, but she
has to be home to put the plug in when it rains. Ms. Courbat stated that she
had a sewer company clean out her line and it cost $70. Ms. Courbat asked how
they can get the sewer line along the alley put into the reconstruction list.
Mayor Hurley asked Eric Thorson, City Engineer, to review this request and get
back to him.

that the letter from Steve and Susan Harty and Tom Hebron supporting the
present site be received and placed on file. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.
119308 - William Sulentic, 735 Pinehurst Lane, stated he spoke to the golf pro and
Leisure Services Commission members and got their views. Then when he read the
column in the Sunday paper by Kevin Evans, he felt his views were absolutely
great and feels it would be a travesty if the building is left at its current
location. Mr. Sulentic asked the council to move the building 250 feet north.
Bob Molinaro, 3545 Augusta Circle and Chairperson of the Leisure Services
Commission, reported that the Golf Improvement Committee has 36 members, with a
cross section of citizens. The committee meets at least four times per year,
along with the pros and staff, to see what they can do to make improvements. A
wish list was created. Mr. Molinaro stated that if not for the formation of
this group, we never could have accomplished the capital improvements that have
been made. There is a Golf Committee consisting of four members of the Leisure
Services Commission that makes recommendations to the Leisure Services
Commission. Mr. Molinaro stated that the golf cart storage building was
approved by the Leisure Service Golf Committee, and it was recommended to the
Leisure Service Commission that the building be located to the right hand side
of the parking lot. Mr. Molinaro stated that when the prints came back, they
showed the building to remain at its present location. Mr. Molinaro stated
there are beautification and safety reasons to move the building. With the
congestion at the present area, you can't stage any big golf events, and there
is debris of all kind from cleaning the golf carts. Mr. Molinaro stated there
is a potential that a battery may explode. Mr. Molinaro stated he does not
believe the sunset view will be obstructed by moving the building. The
building could have been moved further down, but the commission listened to
Andy Devine and compromised to keep it closer. Mr. Molinaro stated the
commission is looking at what is best for golfing and the community in the long
term. Mr. Molinaro stated that no where is the golf shed next to the pro shop.
Mr. Molinaro stated the new building is anesthetically pleasing, and while a
few may be inconvenienced the view is opened for the rest of the people. Mr.
Molinaro took issue with the additional cost as MidAmerican Energy will
relocate the transformer next to the building for about $3,000 or $4,000. Mr.
Molinaro stated that no matter the cost, moving the building is the right thing
to do.
John Delorbe, 171 Hampshire Road and a member of the Leisure Services
Commission, reported this has been going on for about nine months. They
inspected the building, decided it was time to construct a new building, and it
was always their intent to move the building. The plans were brought to the
Leisure Services Commission and voted upon, but the members did not realize the
plans showed the building at its current site. At the next meeting,
commissioners voted to move the building. Mr. Delorbe sated that the pro wants
the building closer, then the neighbors had concerns, and the costs and buffer
zone came up. Mr. Delorbe stated he contacted golfers at Iry Warren, and the
answers were pretty much mixed. Mr. Delorbe stated the buffer zone can be
addressed with landscaping, maybe four or five hedges. Mr. Delorbe stated this
is money well spent, and it is earmarked for golf improvements. Mr. Delorbe
stated he is in favor of moving the building because of the anesthetics.
Roger Frederick, 825 Hilltop Road, stated he was part of the original
committee. They wanted to maintain the anesthetics of Iry Warren and not be
obtrusive. Mr. Frederick stated if the neighbors are concerned with the view,
there are trees there already. Mr. Frederick stated there should not be any
impact when looking up the hill. By moving the building there is a great
opportunity to bring the tents up higher as they were always crowded. This
site will give people an opportunity to congregate without being in the way of
the golfers. Mr. Frederick asked the council to vote in favor of moving the
building.
Dale Willie, 2648 Saratoga and Assistant Pro, stated he looked at the view, and
there are three trees and a flow planter that are 20 feet from the first tee.
Removing them could increase room. Mr. Willie stated that congestion only
happens once a year. Mr. Willie stated that the Leisure Services Commission
members don't know how they will impact Iry Warren. Mr. Willie asked that the
council vote to leave the building at its present location, and that money
could be used to trim trees and remodel the inside of the pro shop.
Mr. Molinaro responded that only one tree is being displace, and if the
building is left at its current site, we would have to remove senior trees.

Paul Huting, Leisure Services Commission, stated that door placement for the
building will change if the building is moved. Originally the door would be on
the south side, but if the building is moved, that would be changed. Mr.
Huting stated it is his understanding that moving the building does not have a
full impact of 250 feet. If compared with the new entrance, the impact would
only be 125 feet. Mr. Huting reported the building will have two overhead
doors and two doors on the end. Mr. Huting stated that the bids were opened on
this building with the understanding that a change order could be brought back
to the council for the cost to move the building. Mr. Huting stated that three
sites were discussed, and this site is a compromised site. Mr. Huting stated
that the carts would be taken out of the entrance door facing south to the tee
area, then up to the pro shop. Mr. Huting stated that a small part of the
parking lot would be used if the building is moved.
Mr. Molinaro stated there is a cart path there now, and some time in the future
it will probably be black topped. Mr. Molinaro stated it will be 10 feet from
the parking lot.
Councilperson Gunderson stated he attended the Leisure Services Commission
meeting last Tuesday and took a straw pool of the commission, with six members
in attendance. Two member were neutral, two wanted the building left at its
current site and two members wanted the building moved. The Leisure Services
Commission does not have a consensus, and he feels the money could be used for
better things. Councilperson Gunderson stated the project has already been bid
out for this location, and he does not feel we should spend any more money.
Councilperson Schmitt reported he read the Leisure Services Commission minutes
of the past two years, and safety issues and congestion were not discussed in
the minutes.
Bill Roberts, Leisure Services Commission Member, reported that five out of
nine members of the Leisure Services Commission want to move the building. Mr.
Roberts stated it was agreed to move the building a long time ago.
Councilperson Clark stated it is difficult to oppose because we have the pro
and Leisure Services Commission with different opinions.
Councilperson Schmitt stated that anesthetics is in the eye of the beholder.
Following comments a vote was taken on the above motion with the following
result. Ayes: Five. Nays: Schmitt, Gunderson. Motion carried.

RESOLUTIONS TO BE ADOPTED
119313 - Welper/Gunderson
that communication from Leisure Services Director transmitting request to
proceed with plans to construct a Dog Park on city property located near the
intersection of Ansborough Avenue and Campbell Avenue be received, placed on
file and "Resolution approving said plans", be adopted.
Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard.
Joe Fox, 133 Martin Road and Leisure Services Commission member, stated he is
surprised this item is on the agenda as the Leisure Services Commission voted
to table.
Paul Huting, Leisure Services Director, stated he requested this item be
brought before the council as a decision needs to be made. Mr. Huting stated
that ultimately the decision is up to the city council as it is city property.
Mr. Huting stated the Leisure Services Commission voted to proceed and then
voted to table.
Mr. Fox stated the commission has studied this request for the past few months
because of citizens wanting a dog park. SPOT did their homework, but neighbors
had objections to the location, and the commission felt it needed to be
discussed further. The commission wanted an opportunity for everyone to have
an impact. Mr. Fox stated it was the commission's understanding the council
wanted to set up a committee to review.
Bob Molinaro stated the last commission meeting he attended, the motion was to
table and Mr. Huting was instructed to set up a meeting with sub committee of
council, Leisure Services and staff. Mr. Molinaro stated they wanted to give
everyone their day. Mr. Molinaro stated that 35 of 50 residents are totally
opposed. Mr. Molinaro stated the commission asked for other alterative sites,
and he suggested Lichty Park, by the dike or by Hope Martin Park. Mr. Molinaro
stated the commission made a commitment to the people, and he personally talked
to people and suggested they come up with other locations.
Mark Shoars, 206 Hollywood Avenue, submitted a petition to the council from
residents in the neighborhood who do not want the Paw Park constructed in the
area bordered by Home Park to Campbell, lots on Hollywood Avenue and the dike.
Mr. Shoars stated they are not against a dog park. Mr. Shoars stated that 75
percent of people do not know the neighborhood exists and that is what is
unique. There is only one way in and one way out. Mr. Shoars stated he drives
by the nursery every day, and he has counted 17 head of deer standing in the
greenbelt area and nursery. Mr. Shoars stated he has been told this is the
only location suitable for a dog park, and they disagree as several people
looked at other sites that were better or worse than the proposed site.
Alan Kleinendort, 159 Hollywood, stated he believes a decision can be made
without impacting the neighbors. Mr. Kleinendort stated the first time he hard
about the dog park was when he read an article in the October 15 200d Courier.
Mr. Kleinendort stated when they voiced their concerns, they were told many
times this is a done deal. Mr. Kleinendort stated they hoped to offer
alternative locations at the January Leisure Services Commission meeting and
were told no action would be taken. Mr. Kleinendort stated that what they have
to offer is a win/win for all. Mr. Kleinendort stated the SPOT group has
stated that this site is a large area, with a central location and not close to
Cedar Falls. Mr. Kleinendort stated they agree it is large and beautiful, but
they have voiced a lot of concerns regarding the fence. Mr. Kleinendort stated
they asked that it not be brought further than Alice Avenue. Mr. Kleinendort
stated he is concerned the fence will keep the wild life out of their property.
Mr. Kleinendort stated they certainly don't want children and dogs to mix. Mr.
Kleinendort stated he has heard about the social atmosphere and they feel we
should allow everyone to enjoy. Mr. Kleinendort stated he agrees the area is
large, has a parking lot and it is not close to Cedar Falls. Mr. Kleinendort
January 20, 2004
Page 6
RESOLUTIONS TO BE ADOPTED CONTINUED
stated there are no restroom, drinking water, it is close to homes and is prone
to flooding. This area has flooded ever year since he lived there. Mr.
Kleinendort stated he visited the dog park in Cedar Falls, and there is bark
scattered all over and asked what affect bark would have on a pump.
Larry Smith, Assistant Superintendent of Waste Management Services, responded
that this is a large track pump. Anytime there is a large amount of solids, it
is not good, but they have no concerns about wood chips.
Mr. Kleinendort stated he is concerned about the additional mowing and
additional mowing costs. Mr. Kleinendort stated the snow fence runs parallel
to the entrance to their area and asked if it will help drifting. Mr.
Kleinendort asked if the fence is built, what recourse will there be if the
fence causes problems. Mr. Kleinendort stated this is a busy intersection
although he has been told there have only been three accidents at this
intersection in two years. Mr. Kleinendort thanked the council for looking at
another access road. Mr. Kleinendort stated that SPOT didn't not even consider
four out five of possible sites. Mr. Kleinendort asked the council to consider
their concerns, and he feels five other alternative sites will work for the
good of families. Mr. Kleinendort asked the council to send this request back
to the Leisure Services Commission for further review.
Eric Thorson, City Engineer, reported that he prepared an area photo for an
access onto Highway 63 and sent the photo to the Iowa Department of
Transportation. Mr. Thorson stated he discussed the access onto Highway 63
with an official from the Iowa Department of Transportation, and as soon as the
official gets the photo they will discuss further and bring back any
information to the council regarding the access.
Helen Kennedy stated when she steps onto her deck, she will be able to see the
proposed dog park, and she is concerned about the barking and containment. Ms.
Kennedy stated when the ball diamonds are in use, traffic backs up to her
driveway. Ms. Kennedy hopes the council will put the dog park in an area that
will not affect the harmonious surroundings.
Heather Ferden, 154 Hollywood Avenue, reported that seven years ago, before
purchasing her home, she contacted city officials and was told the area would
remain a park and nursery and no permanent buildings would be put in the park.
Ms. Ferden stated on July 31, 1996, she contacted the mayor and sent a letter
to him that she wanted to create a wildlife area. The mayor replied to her and
said her letter was forwarded to the Superintendent of Parks. Ms. Ferden read
the letter from the mayor. Ms. Ferden stated that the letter indicates
officials must have respected the need to preserve and enhance this area. Ms.
Ferden asked the council to honor the request of over 50 families living in
this area to look at other areas as this is their front yard.
Scott Schnabel, 151 Hollywood Avenue, stated he has lived at his address for 13
years, and every year either nature or the city backs water into the park. Ms.
Schnabel stated he thinks there will be a solid waste issue.
Chris Hanfelt, 1344 Prospect and SPOT Executive Director, submitted a petition
with 250 signatures in support of locating the dog park at Ansborough and
Highway 63. Ms. Hanfelt presented an aerial view of the homes and where the
dog park will be located.
Anne Nass, 1228 Kimball, stated the location not only has to have parking, but
flatness of space. It needs to be very wheel chair accessible and easy for
herself and other families to take advantage of the park. Ms. Nass stated the
park will allow the dogs to play and fetch, which they can't do in other places
because of the leash laws in the city.
Mavis Floss, 1227 Fulton, stated that SPOT discussed the dog park at the
Leisure Services Commission meeting, and neighbors expressed quality of life
issues. Ms. Floss reported she contacted neighbors in Cedar Falls who live by
their dog park, including one on South Main, six on Colorado and five on
Oregon. Ms. Floss submitted copies of a summary of survey of those neighbors in
Cedar Falls. Ms. Floss stated that naturally people are concerned when
something is added to neighborhoods. The dog park provides space for owners
and dogs, and there are dog parks all over the nations. Ms. Floss stated she
feels the dog parks add quality of life which helps to attract people to a
city. Ms. Floss asked the council approve the proposed site.
Bart Hansen, Prospect Boulevard, stated that his dogs have energy and are
concerned with the ride to Cedar Falls, and this dog park will make it more
convenient for them. Mr. Hansen stated that most dog parks don't have
restrooms because the most time anyone stays at the park is about one hour.

Sue Johnson, 205 Zachary Court, stated that not every day will every dog in
Waterloo be at the park, and there will only be a few cars at a time. Ms.
Johnson stated they are only talking about a fence, no paving, there will still
be green space, the city will mow the park, and SPOT volunteers will pick up
the trash. Ms. Johnson stated we are only talking about a few dogs and a
fence. Ms. Johnson stated she feels this is a prime location for the park.
A resident stated that the people who use the dog park won't have to look at it
every day and look at the fence every day, but residents in this area will have
to live with it.
Mr. Hansen stated that it is the dog owner's duty to pick up after their dog,
and baggies will be supplied.
Dr. Sherman, 237 Carrington, stated her main concern is this area floods on a
yearly basis. Dr. Sherman asked the council to consider other locations.
Greenwood/Clark
that the petition in opposition, petition in support and summary of survey be
received and placed on file. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.
119314 - Anne Nass stressed that they don't think the park is not a good idea for the
community. Ms. Ness stated she looked at 15 locations and took pictures of
each location, and there are many other locations that would not infringe on
the neighbors. Ms. Nass stated she feels if the city puts in a dog park and
fences in the area, that will take away from the wildlife. Ms. Nass stated its
has to do with the quality of life and the reason why the neighbors purchased
property in this area.
Mayor Hurley asked how SPOT arrived at this location. Paul Huting, Leisure
Services Director, stated that Chris Hanfelt contacted him and had a few ideas
to build a dog park, and they discussed a few locations. Mr. Huting stated he
provided Ms. Hanfelt with a guide to all the parks in the city, and they looked
at some of the parks. Mr. Huting stated that the city's insurance carrier has
expressed a desire for the dog park to be in an open area, with a few trees.
Ms. Hanfelt reported she spent a couple of Saturdays exploring the parks, but
they did not want to put the dog park in an area where there are kids.
Councilperson Gunderson stated that St Paul Insurance recommends a six foot
fence and asked if we could use a five foot fence. Mr. Huting responded that
St. Paul is strongly recommending a six foot fence, but the council has the
option to choose the height of the fence.
Nancy Eckert, City Clerk, stated that St. Paul is recommending a six foot
fence, but it is the council's decision. The height of the fence will not
affect our coverage or premiums. St. Paul said the majority of park fences
range in height from four to eight feet.
Ms. Hanfelt stated she has been contacted by those wanting to donate money, but
she asked them to wait until SPOT has a site. Ms. Hanfelt reported that
Manatt's has agreed to do the cement work, Hoover is raising money for a
drinking fountain, and other schools are raising money for playground
equipment.
Councilperson Cole stated she thinks this is a great idea with a mediocre
location. The neighbors obviously don't want it. Councilperson Cole stated
there are other locations in the city, and she will vote against this location.
Councilperson Clark stated these are two great groups of people, but we have a
whole group of a neighborhood representing 50 plus homes, and he doesn't see
how the council can override them. Councilperson Clark stated this is not an
economic issue, but a quality of life issue, and he feels there must be other
locations that would work. Councilperson Clark applauded SPOT and stated he
will help them find another location.
Councilperson Gunderson stated on the map he counted 29 for and 28 against, and
there is not a clear cut consensus for or against the park.
Councilperson Greenwood stated he thinks this is a good project, but a wrong
location. Councilperson Greenwood stated he has met with some of the
residents, and they already have a traffic problem with Dane Park, and in the
summer they have problems with dust and traffic. Councilperson Greenwood
stated he will vote no for this location.
