mr.
Coleman
thank.
D
D
I
I'm,
not
quite
sure,
there's
a
whole
lot.
I
can
do
about
it,
but
Scott
and
Jeff
in
particular.
I
would
just
like
to
see
us
find
a
way
to
streamline
this.
It's
my
understanding
as
I.
Look
at
the
designs
which
the
blue
letter
rightfully
points
out
that
we've
done
most
of
the
design
work.
We've
done
the
conceptual
stuff
we've
there's
pictures
of
it
in
there,
but
even
with
all
that
and
the
fact
that
we've
done
something
identical
on
many
blocks
already
in
the
corridor.
D
We're
spending
another
five
hundred
and
twenty-five
thousand
dollars
to
design
the
next
section
and
I
have
voiced
this
not
just
about
Ingersoll,
but
many
other
places.
I
just
think
it's
in
the
best
interest
of
our
taxpayers
to
streamline
the
conceptual
designs
that
we
might
spend
for
streetscape.
There
might
be
little
tweaks.
We
can
do
to
make
it
unique
around
the
community,
but
you
know
this
is
gonna.
We're
gonna
have
millions
of
dollars
on
the
Ingersoll
streetscape.
D
D
H
Yeah
I
can
answer
to
some
of
that
and
pull
up
staff
as
well
as
as
they
come
up.
There
are
some
elements
of
the
design
that
are
different
with
bump-outs
in
particular,
which
you
don't
often
see
in
some
other
portions,
but
a
lot
of
times
that
design
has
to
be
specific
to
the
site,
with
the
other
utilities.
The
right
away
constraints
that
are
that
are
specific
to
the
segments
that
we're
looking
at
now.
H
That
doesn't
account
obviously
for
the
full
amount,
but
you
can't
just
simply
say:
I
want
the
same
thing
as
what's
on
this
block
or
that
block
and
not
still
have
to
design
it
out
for
what
the
actual
construction
specs
would
require
to
build.
That's
a
good
segue
to
it,
let's
Steve!
Thank
you.
Honorable.
I
Mayor
members
of
City,
Council,
Steve,
neighbor
city
engineer,
basically
the
the
drawing
that
you
included
that
I
included
in
the
council
communication
is
a
a
concept
not
to
read
it,
but
it's
basically
a
pretty
drawing
it's
just
a
surface
drawing
what
would
this?
What
this
engineering
services
contract
includes
is
actually
that
detailed
design,
the
sake
of
actually
putting
elevations
to
those
curves
actual
dimensions,
designing
the
stormwater
drainage
so
that
you
can.
I
Actually,
when
you
add
these
bump
outs
and
change
the
curb
lines
you
can
make
them
drain,
that's
designing
the
actual
reconstruction
of
the
roadway
photo
metrics
for
lighting.
It's
it's
it's
the
actual,
detailed
design.
So
all
that's
been
done
to
date.
To
be
honest,
this
is
a
conceptual
estimate
of
what
the
geometrics
could
look
like
so
and
then
they
also
put
the
contract
specifications
bid
items.
They
calculate
all
the
quantities
that
that
the
contractors
use
to
develop
their
bids,
and
so
none
of
that
work
has
been
done.
I
H
J
D
I
G
I
Like
actual
elevations
and
how
drainage
works
that
it
never
yeah,
you
cannot
take
it
anywhere
else.
You
you
at
all,
you
would
need
to
detail
out.
You
know
the
grades
are
different.
The
utilities
are
different
in
each
location.
So,
but
in
terms
of
like
a
concept
or
a
principle,
you
could
take
that
elsewhere,
but
but
but
a
specific
design.
You
typically
never
use
elsewhere
and.
I
The
other
thing
with
Street
scapes
again
it
comes
back
a
lot
of
its
televisions
when
we're
working
with
the
Americans
with
Disabilities
Act
design
guidelines.
Your
sidewalks
are
there's
requirements
on
those
sidewalks
slopes
and
that
not
only
at
the
intersection
ramps
and
corners
themselves
at
driveways
and
even
the
cross
slope
itself.
When
you're
changing
that
curb
line,
those
can
be
quite
be
quite
cumbersome.
I
used
to
be
the
streetscape
diet
at
my
previous
firm
and
have
rebuilt
all
of
downtown
DeKalb's
eyen
Glenview
a
number
of
communities
and-
and
that
was
always
a
very
challenging
Elizabeth.
D
D
H
So
I
can
clarify
that
the
existing
growth
along
Ingersoll
in
valuation
is
sufficient
to
pay
debt
service
on
the
full
project
and
so
there's
excess
capacity
within
the
TIF
from
a
valuation
standpoint.
It
would
still
take
borrowing
to
get
it
done,
but
it
can
be
done
through
the
the
TIF
growth.
That's
already
occurred
to
this
point
and.
H
H
Understanding
that
the
motivation
to
do
this
project
is,
there
are
still
a
lot
of
parcels
along
Ingersoll
that
have
the
opportunity
to
expand
further.
So
there's
that
opportunity
to
development
to
recoup
the
cost
even
further,
yet
with
future
growth.
And
that's
that's
a
key
point
that
differs
from
some
other
TIF
opportunities
and
streetscapes.
B
You
mayor,
this
is
gonna,
go
back
to
ancient
history,
but
five
years
ago,
when
I
first
got
on
the
City
Council.
The
first
thing
that
I
brought
forward
to
rick
clark,
the
city
manager,
was,
I
want
to
take
a
look
at
redoing,
the
corner
of
Merle,
hay
and
Hickman
five
years
later.
What
have
we
got
this?
This
is
really
you
know
if
you,
if
you
look
at
what
the
intent
of
this
is,
it
says
right
here.
B
B
This
doesn't
make
any
sense,
and
this
is
the
gate.
Western
gateway
for
people
coming
in
to
visit
des
moines
I
won't
go
into
signage,
because
Windsor
Heights
has
a
nice
monument
sign,
identifying
their
territory.
Bourbon
Dale
has
a
nice
sign,
identifying
their
territory
and,
if
it
weren't
for
the
Merle
hay,
neighborhood
posting
a
sign.
You
wouldn't
even
know
you're
in
Des
Moines,
but
that's
another
issue
that
we
can
go
at,
but
this
you
know,
if
you
look
at
this
inner
section,
there's
only
one
corner
that
is
turning
lights.
People
are
piled
up
there.
B
We
have
a
letter
from
Jason
poem,
Merle,
hay,
Neighborhood
Association
president.
One
of
his
big
concerns
in
the
Myrtle
in
the
whole
neighborhood
association
is
the
fact
that
westbound
traffic
on
Hickman
has
no
no
left-hand
turn
lane
at
all
and
again
it
comes
back
to
this
eminent
domain
and
what
we
need
to
do
we're
already
going
after
three
separate
property
owners
for
four
improvements,
but
keep
in
mind.
B
B
Also,
that's
its
state
highway
highway,
28
roars
up
through
there
I
did
talk
to
engineering
at
one
time
about
the
path
white.
Why
it
was
this
crazy
design
set
up
and
some
were
in
the
fifties?
The
concept
came
well,
we're
gonna,
make
Merle
hay
road,
a
six-lane
superhighway
and
then
we're
going
to
bend
all
the
traffic
down
murkland
way,
which
is
a
one-way
to
head
towards
a
future
freeway.
B
Well,
now
that
stuffs
ever
happened
and
Merkel
away
those
poor
people
that
live
there
after
coming
home
from
downtown,
they
have
to
drive
down,
probably
55th,
get
down
to
Hickman
Road
and
backtrack
to
get
on
berkland
way,
so
they
can
get
to
their
home.
This
whole
corner
has
been
a
hodgepodge
of
patches.
B
I
would
like
to
see
with
the
backing
of
the
Merle
hay
Neighborhood
Association
I
want
to
see
where
we
can
move
forward
and
make
this
a
corner
that
that
the
city
can
be
proud
of,
is
functionally
good
and
and
meets
the
needs
of
the
neighborhood,
as
well
as
the
city,
so
I
will
move
fifteen,
but
added
it
to
the
stipulation
that
I
want.
This
referred
back
to
the
city,
manager
and
engineering.
We
need
a
target.
Well,
I
was
just
told
it
cost
too
much
money.
Tell
me
what
it
is.
B
D
J
D
J
M
L
Anything
has
happened
since
I
was
here
last
and
talked
about
the
bike
pass
after
I
had
left
the
last
time
you
voted
for
about
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
a
bike
path
on
the
south
side,
and
just
recently
you
voted
six
to
one
for
the
amount
of
five
hundred
and
fifty
two
thousand
four
hundred
seventy
six
dollars
and
seventy
seven
thousand
dollars.
It
was
over
budget.
L
L
L
Don't
understand
why
and
that's
one
of
the
reasons
why
I'm
back
here,
Grand
Avenue,
Ingersoll
University,
every
major
thoroughfare
in
this
town
needs
to
be
repaved.
Did
you
have?
Do
you
have
a
plan
for
resurfacing
them
in
addition
to
the
resurfacing
them?
The
sewers
are
outdated
and
yes,
you're
addressing
it
some
this
spring.
L
45
years
ago,
Bill
Riley
started
bike
paths
down
at
Ashford
swimming
pool.
You
want
to
get
the
bike,
people
off
the
streets,
so
they
would
be
safe
and
now
we're
wanting
more
bicycles
on
streets
and
they
don't
pay
their
way
now
in
Oregon.
Just
this
last
couple
last
year
you
know
you
come
up.
You
come
up
and
complain
about
things.
You
got
to
have
a
solution.
L
Why
don't
the
bike
people
pay
the
way
they
should
save
some
something
in
it
for
them,
and
you
bike
over
$200
in
Oregon.
They
got
to
pay
$15
and
they're
gonna
raise
1.2
million
dollars
before
he
can
do
that
or
I
can't
de
Moines
Iowa
I.
Remember
when
I
was
a
little
kid
we
used
to
go
up
the
fire
station.
I,
don't
know
how
much
it
was.
I
used
to
get
a
your
little
sticker
and
you
put
it
on
your
bike.
I
don't
know
if
it
was
free
or
not,
but
everything
everybody
was
accounted
for.
L
M
L
So
our
Road
should
be
more
pristine
than
the
suburbs
since
we're
getting
more
money
from
the
homeowners,
but
our
roads
are
less
now,
as
I
understand,
you're
fixing
floor
drive,
did
you
concede
to
11
feet
or
12
feet,
I
left,
I,
don't
know
if
the
lanes
are
gonna
be
loving
feet
or
twelve
feet,
but
fluor
drive
is
going
to
be
fixed
and
it
is
bad.
I
will
tell
you
and
now
you're
going
to
fix
it.
L
L
They're
all
pushed
down
and
pushed
over
I
thought
we
had
a
person
that
manages
the
bike
thing
now,
isn't
that
his
job
to
make
sure
that
it
is
that
it
looks
good
because
I
think
it
looks
pretty
bad.
So
is
that
my
time,
okay,
I
didn't
get
to
talk
about
other
things,
but
I
will
be
back.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
I
hope
you
taken
considerations
when
you
make
decisions
on
behalf
of
the
people
that
you
represent,
that
you're
good
stewards
of
our
money,
that's
what
City
Council
people
do.
Thank
you
thank.
M
A
A
O
N
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
thank
you,
members
of
the
City
Council
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
here
today.
I'm
gonna
work
in
good
faith
to
get
through
all
this
in
in
my
five
minutes.
So
I'm
here
today
to
talk
about
the
issue
of
predatory
towing.
I
want
to
start
by
just
orienting
you
to
the
current
ordinances
that
deal
with
the
removal
of
vehicles
from
private
property.
N
One
is
to
all
of
them
flow
through
contacting
the
police
department,
in
which
case
they
can
offer
a
citation
or
they
can
have
the
vehicle
removed
and
impounded.
But
again,
this
all
is
done
through
the
police
department,
the
Department
of
Public
Works
or
the
Department
of
Community
Development.
So
that's
those
are
the
current
ordinances
in
the
Municipal
Code
in
des
Moines
that
cover
the
removal
of
vehicles
from
private
property.
N
Obviously,
I
have
a
personal
story.
That's
what
brings
me
here
today.
So
in
December
of
last
year,
I
had
parked
in
a
commercial
zone
parking
lot
across
the
street
from
a
restaurant.
That
I
was
going
to
this
parking
lot
is
near
Drake
University
and,
as
I
pulled
in
I,
made
sure
to
check
the
walls
check.
The
curb
cuts
look
for
signage.
That
would
indicate
that
this
was
a
parking
lot,
that
I
could
not
park
in
and
went
to.
The
establishment.
N
I
was
there
for
about
two
hours
when
I
came
out
and
my
car
was
gone,
there
was
a
tow
truck
there.
That
was
removing
another
vehicle
at
the
time,
so
I
went
for
the
tow
truck
driver
and
I
said:
oh
I.
Imagine
my
car
got
towed
when
I
pulled
in
I
looked
for
a
sign,
where's
the
sign,
I,
don't
see
any
sign.
That
would
say
this
is
not
a
place
that
I
can
park
and
he
gestured
to
the
corner
there.
So
just
to
orient
you
to
the
photos
on
the
screen.
N
What
you're
looking
at
is
the
wall
adjacent
to
the
parking
lot
and
the
big
photo
on
the
right.
You
can
see
there's
kind
of
two
parts
to
the
wall,
large
and
short
bottom
laughs.
We
start
to
zoom
in
a
little
bit
more
and
you
can
still
see
those
two
parts
of
the
wall
and
the
top
left.
You
can
see
the
sign
that
the
tow
truck
driver
had
referenced.
N
That
says,
towed
vehicles
can
be
redeemed
at
such-and-such
location,
so
on
that
entire
wall,
the
sign
that
they
chose
supposed
was
that
one,
the
fair
for
bottom
right
hand,
corner
of
that
fairly
large
wall.
So
I
went
to
the
lot.
The
next
morning,
I
had
a
friend
drive
me
home.
That
night,
my
wife
and
my
wife
brought
me
there.
The
next
day
and
I
challenged
the
owner
and
I
said.
You
know,
I'm,
not
sure
that
this
is
a
very
upstanding
way
to
conduct
business.
They
basically
gave
me
two
choices.
N
But
what
was
different
about
their
interactions
was,
you
know,
I
was
talking
about
ordinances
and
statutes
and
an
in
due
process
and
the
people
in
front
of
you
were
talking
about
how
they
had
to
call
in
to
miss
their
shift
that
day
because
they
didn't
have
their
car
or
how
they
did
not
have
the
money
to
get
their
car
out
that
day.
So,
unfortunately,
I
have
a
salaried
position.
N
Clearly
not
the
case
for
everybody
that
was
there
that
day,
so
I
could
very
easily
take
them
to
small
claims.
Courts.
Try
to
try
to
get
my
money
back.
That
would
solve
my
problem,
but
this
is
something
that
happens
dozens
of
times
every
day
and
that
would
go
and
change
the
ball
I
did
was
was
taking
the
small
plane
sports
I
just
want
to
talk
to
this
part
proposed
ordinances.
So
what
I
think
we
could
do
to
address
this?
There's
really
three
things
required
posted
signage
and
lots.
N
It's
clearly
visible
limit
the
fees
that
can
be
charged
and
imposed
penalties
on
towing
companies
who
violate
those
rules.
This
last
slide
that
I'll
touch
on
I.
Looked
at
what
other
cities
in
the
Midwest
do
to
address
this
situation,
and
it
turns
out
that
many
of
them
have
rules
on
the
books
I
through
statute
or
ordinance
that
address
these
three
issues.
So
there's
a
lot
of
precedents
to
look
to
and
they
seem
to
have
found
ways
to
effectively
deal
with
this
matter.
So
thank.
K
I
would
certainly
appreciate
from
the
city
attorney,
maybe
seeing
how
this
compares
to
our
ordinance
and
the
suggestions
made
and
and
if
there
is
any
recommendation
for
best
practices
that
we
as
a
city
could
could
implement
through
situations
like
this
and
I.
Welcome
your
recommendations
so
I'd
make
a
motion
to
just.
G
To
be
clear
in
that
and
I
I
would
support
Josh's
motion,
but
just
to
be
clear,
there
is
a
picture
that
you
had
posted
on
there
and
I
have
the
same
exact
picture.
You
didn't
zoom
in
on
the
loo,
no
trespassing,
the
one
that
says,
posted
no
trespassing
the
holes
in
the
building
where
people
have
ran
into
the
building
and
that's
why
they
don't
want
your
parking
in
that
some
of
those
photos,
I
think
you
left
out.
I
mean
there's
pictures
of
where
cars
have
hit
the
building,
so
I
mean
I.
G
N
That
but
I
think
that
if
you
look
at
businesses
right
I
mean
if
you
drive
around
the
East
Village,
you
can
see
plenty
of
examples
of
businesses
that
clearly
do
not
want
people
to
park.
There
I
completely
inaccurate
Ian's,
better
links
than
that
to
make
that
known
so
and
I
said
that
to
them
too.
If
they
really
didn't
want
people
to
park
there,
they
would
take
a
better
approach
than
the
one
that
they
Joe.
G
And
I
would
think
that
they
have
probably
taken
a
much
better
approach
if
you've
gone
out
there
now
and
my
understanding
that
they
went
out
there
30
minutes
after
you
left
here
their
yard,
and
all
of
these
signs
were
posted
on
that
building
at
that
time.
So
I'm
not
I'm,
not
sure
what
the
deal
is,
but
I
I
mean
I'd
support
whatever
motion,
but
there
there
is
two
sides
and
I
know
that
the
towing
company
has
a
very
difficult
job
because
he
has
difficulties.
G
There
me
as
a
small
business
owner
and
I've
spoke
with
Josh
how
people
just
dump
cars
into
my
businesses,
property,
stolen
cars,
cars
that
don't
run
anymore,
they'll
just
leave
them,
and
without
with
that
and
I
don't
have
any
signs
posted,
but
I
would
be
stuck
with
that
car
in
there.
If
we
didn't
tell
that
car
yeah.
G
N
N
K
Just
get
recommendations
if
there
any
best
practices
that
are
not
currently
in
our
ordinance
I
with
Councilman
Gatos
points
being
well
taken,
I
mean
private
property
owners
have
a
right
to
remove
vehicles.
It's
if
there's
anything
that
can
be
that
we
should
be
thinking
about
relating
to
notice
or
if
there's
you
know
the
p4
Shahnaz.
Well,
those
things
seem
reasonable
to
address
every.

Southwest,

a
is
to
amend
the
existing
plan
DSM
creating
our
tomorrow
plan.
Future
land
use,
designation
from
medium
desserted
density
residential
to
community
mixed-use.
To
allow
for
rezoning
to
limited
dr
down
town
riverfront
and
the
redevelopment
for
senior
living
apartments
at
a
density
of
up

is
a

on

rezoning.
The
property
from
our
three
multiple
family,
residential
to
limited,
dr
downtown
riverfront
c,
is
the
first
consideration
of
the
ordinance
above
d.
A
K
A
P
K
G
G
Nothing
on
Columbus,
nothing
on
Southwest,
second
yep,
okay
is
Southwest.
Second
used
is
that
the
I
know
there's
a
parcel.
That's
closed
further
to
the
north
of
Southwest.
Second,
that
another
developer
owns
and
has
a
sign
up
and
doesn't
allow
through
traffic.
Is
that
correct?
Is
that
Southwest
second
I'm.
G
Q
K
G
It
goes
up
and
then
you
can
go
over
or
Madison
flattest
to
get
to
in
L
Avenue,
but
you
can't
go
any
further.
Then
then
Madison
flats
and
I
believe
we
had
Madison
flats
put
that
Street
in
and
turn
lane
and
that
media
and
I
believe
they
had
to
put
that
in
is
that
right,
I
don't
know
somebody
been
around
long
enough.
This
probably
tell
me
because
I
wasn't
on
the
council
at
that
time.
D
G
G
G
Q
G
They
guys
not
that
is
actually
not
a
through
Street
in
there
I'll
sign
up
that
says
that
is
not
a
through
Street.
Okay,
because
a
developer
it
pushes
that
whole
area
so
that
it
does
not
go
all
the
way
to
the
bridge.
Do
they
just
do
that,
maybe
about
four
or
five
months
ago,
because
I've
received
numerous
complaints
about
that,
even
though
it's
Josh's
War
I
do
not
know
that.
Q
O
R
Yeah
go
to
the
camera
here
we
go:
okay,
okay,
so
Joe
this
is
cut
Matt,
Anderson,
deputy
city
manager,
councilman
Gatto.
This
is
what
we
were
looking
at
this
morning.
So
right
here
is
where
yep
that's
close.
Now
that's
closed
now,
where
you
could
come
get
to
this
property
directly
from
Indianola,
as
this
gentleman
has
stated,
but
this
is
closed
now,
barricades.
G
G
Edison
would
yeah
so
some
of
the
concerns
that
the
neighbors
had
had
was
walkability
to
the
bike
path
and
also
a
curb
and
gutter
around
around
that
and
who
was
going
to
pay
for
it
and
what
what
the,
what
the
cop
you
know,
who's
responsible
for
it
and
I
guess.
We
just
all
need
to
be
clear
before
we
go
forward.
What
we're
doing
here
and
you're
gonna
need
to
know,
and
so,
and
what
we're
all
gonna
need
to
be
on
the
same
page
and
I'm,
not
sure
how
we
do
it
with
other
developments.
G
I
know
some
of
them
have
done
some.
Some
of
them
haven't
did
all
of
them,
some
of
them,
because
I
know,
there's
certain
portions
that
we've
allowed
them
not
to
do
it
and
then
I've
gotten
complaints
that
why
is
there
a
big
puddle
on
the
street?
You
got
a
brand
new
building
and
we
didn't.
We
didn't
do
the
new
street
or
sewer
on
there.
Q
We
were
basing
it
off
of
that
Madison
flat
and
kind
of
what
the
pre-op
medium
was
saying.
They
were
saying,
whatever
our
main
entrance
may
be
say,
it's
Edison
sure
that
we
would
have
to
provide
the
curb
and
all
that
and
cooked
as
them
to
the
main
entrance
and
then
hoping
this.
You
know
the
city
would
probably
or
somebody
down
the
road
would
take
care
of
Columbus
and
what's
out
of
the
one
Burge
target.
Third,
second,.
G
E
Q
A
I
I
think
it
sounds
like
a
great
project
on
the
on
the
one
in,
on
the
other
hand,
I'm
somewhat
concerned
about
you
know
how
we
deal
with
water
issues,
knowing
that
that
area
can
tend
to
be
a
little
damp
down
there,
and
so
how
do
we
deal
with
that?
I
mean
you're,
gonna
use
permeable
pavement?
Are
we
having
trees,
I
mean
bioswales,
Gardens
I
mean
what
are
we
doing
about
those
issues.
S
Mr.
mayor,
my
name
is
Pierce
Cody
I've
worked
with
Simonson
and
associates
architects,
and
we're
here
with
Cory
today
is
the
developer.
Water
retention,
of
course,
by
city
standard
is
required
on
all
new
developments.
So
we
will
have
on-site
detention
for
our
own
water
that
we're
generating
on
this
site.
S
While
this
is
an
early
concept,
of
course,
for
landscaping,
keeping
as
much
of
the
site
in
turf
as
opposed
to
concrete,
and
were
we
defined
that
we
can't
accommodate
everything
with
surface
detention
in
the
lower
corner
of
the
site.
We
would,
of
course
have
to
entertain
underground
detention
as
well,
but
we
would
meet
city
standards
in
that
regard.
S
Relative
to
the
street
improvements
based
on
our
pre
AB
meeting
with
city
staff
and
Beansie
they've,
requested
that
we
do
full
section
across
Southwest,
first
and
Essen
and
I
believe
frankly,
that
it
wasn't
even
the
full
extent
of
Edison.
It
was
primarily
the
two
portions
of
the
street
were
our
main
entry
into
the
site
so
that
increased
traffic
generated
to
the
site
is
actually
going
on
top
of
improved
baton
on,
as
opposed
to
saying
that
might
be
in
a
little
bit.
S
G
S
G
It
shouldn't
the
only
traffic
you're
gonna
get
is
when
the
kids
are
getting
dropped
off
to
school,
and
these
people
can't
pull
out
and
go
down.
Edison
they're
gonna
go
to
where
mattes
and
flat
is
and
go
go
away
from
that
Columbus
there's
nothing
other
than
an
ironworks
behind
it,
I
mean
there's
no
accessibility
to
anything
other
than
Southwest.
Second,
so
I'm
sure
that's
what
P
&
Z
was
was
looking
at
when
they
looked
at
it.
G
S
A
One
of
my
questions
is
you'll.
Look
at
this
area
and
knowing,
what's
kind
of
to
the
west
of
it
up
to
the
river
end
down,
I
mean
that
that
at
some
are
another,
especially
with
a
nice
development
here
that
may
open
up
to
something
besides
ironworks
certain
in
whatever,
and
so
what
access
are
we're
going
to
use
moving
down
the
the
road
to
get
access
to
that
property?
S
A
Think
we
have
to
make
the
pathways
to
make
that
a
possibility
and
at
least
see
that
as
a
potential
at
this
time.
What
Ray
you
know,
lay
the
groundwork
for
something
in
the
future
to
happen,
not
that
we
have
to
pave
all
that
stuff,
but
just
make
sure
we
recognize
that
you
know.
That's
probably
what's
going
to
happen,
we're
talking
about
Joe
you
and
I
talked
about
recently.
S
And
I
think
member
there
goes
to
discussion.
We
had
at
Beansie,
which
is
currently
this
site
is
well
there.
There
are
two
parcels,
there's
an
alley
that
runs
up
and
down
on
this
plan
between
the
two
sites.
What
is
already
our
downtown
riverfront,
the
others
are
three
I
believe
it
is
and
we're
asking
that
we
change
the
are
three
to
match.
The
D
are
on
the
other
side.
S
That
way
we
have
consistent
zoning,
consistent
setbacks
that
sort
of
thing
across
the
parcel,
but
ultimately,
in
the
current
land
use
plan,
this
entire
neighborhood,
eventually
kind
of
goes
to
be
a
dr,
a
kind
of
level
of
density
and
and
as
this
neighborhood
redevelops,
that's
probably
what
it's
going
to
take
on
in
terms
of
its
character.
Much
like
the
apartments
long
you
need
all
have
done
already.
So
I
think
this
is
another
step
in
the
evolution
of
this
neighborhood
someone
so.
E
G
S
O
A
A
G
You
know
I
I,
just
I
mean
I'm
comfortable
with
Southwest
verse.
I
think
the
neighbors
would
appreciate
that
being
finished.
I
think
they
would
appreciate
Edison
with
curb
and
gutter
being
finished
with
the
with
the
storm
sewer
I
think
I
appreciate
the
mayor's
comments
and
I
think
all
of
us
are
concerned
that
I'm
sure
Iron
Works
isn't
probably
going
to
be
there
forever.
This.
G
I
mean
whoever
or
whenever
that
happens,
then
that
might
be
a
responsibility
of
them.
Plus,
you
know
a
portion
of
the
city,
CIP
to
you
know,
strengthen
some
some
other
development
to
the
West.
There
I
think
I
think
that
that
answers
a
lot
of
the
questions
that
that
we
had
yeah
and
the
neighbors
really
and.
O

these
are

residential,
the
NPC
neighborhood
pedestrian
commercial
C
is
the
first
consideration.
A
U
I'm
Robert
Mulvihill,
I
own
those
properties
and
I
requested
the
zoning
change
to
get
more
parking
for
those
three
properties.
The
1147
property
does
not
have
any
off
street
parking
and
it's
the
five
Plex,
so
it
needs
about
seven
spaces
or
so
the
1145
building.
That's
the
parking
lot
is
there,
but
it
needs
to
be
resurfaced
and
then
I'm,
starting
a
new
business
at
11:39,
24th
Street,
which
is
a
third
property,
and
it
could
use
more
parking
for
the
business.
So
we
used
by
converting
it's
commercial.
K
And
against
the
the
questions
in
this,
this
is
going
to
be
as
much
for
for
Chris,
but
probably
gonna
have
some
questions
here
too,
you
know,
we've
got
the
neighborhood
pilot
program
going
on
and
I
had
a
question
about
how
this
connects-
and
you
know,
particularly
when
we're
doing
something
that
will
you
know,
we're
looking
to
the
property
owners
looking
to
add
value
and
we're
trying
to
bring
up
the
quality
of
of
all
of
these
properties.
And
how
are
we
thinking
about
that
and
in
particular,
these
properties?
P
As
well
mayor
member
city
council,
chris
johansson
community
velopment,
director,
with
regards
to
the
two
rental
properties,
particular,
I
think
that's
exactly
what
you're
getting
at
for
currently
on
our
current
rental
code.
I
know
this
is
something
we
could
take
a
look
at
and
address
more
immediately
than
waiting
for
the
our
pilot
areas
to
complete
I
know
they
do
have
rental
certificates
right
now,
but
this
is
something
we
could
go
out
and
address
right
now
with
addition
to
moving
forward
with
our
our
neighborhood
revitalization
program.
P
I
think
one
thing
we're
trying
to
do
is
develop
more
incentives
for
these
types
of
properties.
We've
talked
not
only
about
having
some
sort
of
program
to
help
with
the
repair
cost
for
this
loans
grants.
We
haven't
gotten
all
through
that
yet,
but
that's
an
opportunity
to
something
to
look
at
to
address
these
types
of
issues,
not
only
just
for
the
rental,
but
also
for
the
single-family
as
well,
but
where
we're
at
right
now,
I
I'm,
comfortable
in
saying
that
we
drove
by
and
looked
at
the
properties
today.
This
is
something
we
could.
V
Yeah,
we
have
to
be
really
careful
that
there's
zoning
its
statutory
predominantly
in
Iowa,
and
we
have
an
ability
to
agree
to
certain
zoning
conditions
with
the
property
owner.
Those
generally
are
related
to
as
zoning
to
the
use
of
the
property,
as
opposed
to
particular
conditions
of
the
property
in
those
conditions.
Generally,
as
your
community
development
directors
indicating
our
address
through
different
codes,
perhaps
I
mean
one
of
one
of
the
things
that
council
has
done
in
the
past
is
to
continue
the
hearing
continue.
V
The
item
generally
visit
with
the
owner
about
certain
commitments
and
and
what
what
they're
going
to
do
prior
to
council
going
ahead
and
potentially
exacerbating
a
situation
like,
for
example,
you
might
have
here
if
the
property
becomes
commercial
and
and
you've
got
some
multi
flexes.
That
could
create
other
problems,
but
we'd
be.
We
have
to
be
very
careful
in
terms
of
using
zoning
as
a
hammer
for
property
can
conditions
as
opposed
to
uses.
V
H
U
That's
partly
what
she
said
is
right:
it's
it's
a
well
you'll
hear
about
it
every
months,
but
it's
a
building
that
has
four
kitchens
in
it
that
people
can
rent
by
the
hour,
then
in
the
front
part
will
be
a
kind
of
a
kitchen
cafe
that
people
can
rent
as
a
kitchen
or
rent
it
as
a
cafe
where
they
can
sell
food
from
there.
So
will
be
open
to
the
public.
K
R
H
G
H
U
U
K
A
G
K
K
A
A
K
B
With
Josh,
this
is
a
great
opportunity.
We
have
a
lot
of
synergy
working
down
there
right
now.
It's
good
to
see
that
we're
moving
forward
with
rejuvenating
that
area.
It's
I
can
see
a
lot
of
positive
things
happening
so
supported
entirely.
Josh
and
I've
been
working
together
in
that
Drake
area
for
a
year
now,
I
love
it
keep
it
up.
G
A
Yeah
they
teach
you
that
a
mere
code
on
the
proposed
connection
fee
ordinance
for
the
little
four
mile
trunk
sewer
benefited
District,
Council
communication
number
19
double
O
1a
is
the
first
consideration.
The
ordinance
above
will
open
the
hearing.
Anybody
here
to
speak,
to
come
on
up,
give
us
your
name
and
address
and
give
us
your
import.
M
E
V
M
H
H
H
M
It
appears
that,
at
least
for
one
point,
seven
acres
involved
there's
only
about
a
three
to
four
dozen
existing
houses,
so
it's
being
done
for
a
new
development
open
up
those
open
areas.
Obviously,
as
he
developments
grow
and
seem
to
become
part
of
Des
Moines,
if
I
become
surrounded
by
the
moines
property,
then
will
I
be
involuntarily
annexed.
So
that
would
take
a
vote.
H
That
would
take
a
vote
of
the
communities
understand
that
this
project
is
also
an
opportunity
for
existing
homes,
like
yourself
to
connect
on
by
choice.
So
we
oftentimes
do
have
property
owners
that
their
septic
tanks,
yeah
sewers,
fail,
and-
and
so
this
is
a
benefit
not
only
for
new
construction
but
also
for
the
existing.
At
that
point,.
W
You

What
kind
of

am
I
going

if

not

as

as

I'm
up

Move
item

just
wanna
give
a
shout
out
to
engineering.
They
did
a
great
job
with
community
meetings,
an
open
house
people
were
allowed
to
give
input,
talk
about
it,
express
their
concerns.
I
think
they
did
a
great
job
a
lot
of
times.
The
engineering
gets
pulled
in
the
crosshairs
at
this
time.
I
was
really
proud
of
it.
It
really
worked
great
and
I
need
$0.30
guys
can
help
me
out
bill.
G
K
And
I'll
use
this
opportunity
to
talk
about
the
synergy
and
University
a
you
know.
This
is
hopefully
something
that
is
part
of
a
larger
change
in
the
way
University
is
going
to
be
working
and
then
it
next
few
years
and
that
will
include
connecting
with
our
neighbors
West
as
well
as
thinking
about
how
how
it
goes
to
the
east,
in
our
our
friends
in
the
Drake
neighborhood
and
Drake
University
as
well,
and
so
I
I,
look
forward
to
seeing
everything
that's
going
to
be
happening
along
that
corridor.
K
A
T
G
A
T
For
those
of
you
don't
know.
If
eight
is
Iowa,
State
motorcycle
rights
organization
of
brotherhood
aimed
toward
education
for
the
past
35
years
of
eight
of
Iowa
district
four
has
hosted
an
annual
toy
run
parade.
This
is
an
event
that
many
look
forward
to
participating
in
and
many
more
have
come
to
depend
on
and
Pope
warned
in
Dallas
counties.
Those
who
depend
on
our
parade,
our
various
agencies
that
provide
shelter
and
services
to
women,
children
and
families
under
a
variety
of
circumstances.
T
These
agencies
have
budgets,
they
must
operate
under
and
extras
like
toys,
gifts
and
clothing
for
the
children
for
Christmas
has
to
fall
to
donations
by
the
public
debate
of
Iowa
District
four
has
stepped
up
for
35
years
to
help
provide
for
these
children
and
families.
Many
aspects
of
the
toy
on
parade
have
changed
over
the
years,
but
the
one
thing
that
remains
constant
is
our
desire
to
continue
in
the
role
of
helping
make
Christmas
happier
for
the
underprivileged
children
within
our
district.
T
We
will
be
hosting
our
36th
annual
toy
run,
parade
October,
13th
2019
once
again,
starting
from
the
State
Capitol
Complex
parking
lot
15
each
year
as
we
plan
a
parade
of
motorcyclists
who
ride
in
transport,
donated
toys
to
a
pre-planned
ending
dust
desert
of
destination.
Excuse
me
for
that
parade.
We
must
plan
a
route,
and
each
year
we
have
been
assisted
by
the
City
of
Des
Moines
police
traffic
control
unit
and
confirming
streets
we
want
to
use,
will
not
be
under
construction
and
that
off-duty
officers
provide
escort
and
traffic
control
for
the
parade.
T
We
pay
a
minimum
of
two
hours
of
wages
for
each
officer
at
a
rate
of
one
and
a
half
times
their
normal
hourly
wage.
While
we
are
deeply
grateful
for
the
safe,
they
provide
our
riders
that
they
provide
our
riders
that
are
traveling
for
the
cause.
The
cost
associated
with
this
aspect
of
our
annual
event
can
negatively
have,
depending
on
our
circumstances
in
a
given
year.
It
can
also
dictate
where
we
ride
and
the
distance
if
sponsorship
of
the
event
falls
short
of
the
expenses
or
if
there
are
bad
weather
year.
T
That
impacts
participation,
which
results
in
less
merchandise,
sales
that
help
to
offset
expenses.
We
can
actually
lose
money
in
our
attempt
to
aid
those
less
fortunate,
so
we
are
asking
if
it
would
be
possible
for
the
City
of
Des
Moines
to
possibly
consider
some
sort
of
credit
beyond
the
standard
street
use,
permit
cost
or
even
look
to
incorporate
into
the
city
budget
an
allowance
of
some
sort
to
decrease
or
completely
offset
the
expense
abate
of
Iowa
district
4
pays
for
the
police
services.
For
this
event.
T
T
When
considering
our
request.
Please
keep
in
mind
this
information,
of
which
I
have
handed
you.
We
partnered
with
five
agencies

the
tri-county

let's
move
to

are

There
were
five
proposals
received.
That's.
F
A
D
Mayor
and
I
were
at
their
30th
celebration.
Scott
was
there
actually
there's
a
good
story?
There
don't
know.
If
we
had
a
shorter
meeting,
I
tell
you
it's
God
still
trying
to
figure
out
what
happened:
yeah
yeah,
they
had
a
guest
that
was
on
America's
Got
Talent
the
what
were
their
names.
Skylar
vines,
the
clairvoyance
in
fact
they're
on
this
week
for
their
Champions
reunion
thing
and
they
brought
Scott
on
stage
and
read
his
mind.
D
D
D
The
prairie
meadows
agreement
has
been
an
amazing
benefit
to
the
city.
We
give
up
a
lot.
You
know,
I,
think
the
mayor
and
I
were
the
only
ones
around
when
we
had
serious
interest
from
people
from
63rd
and
highway
five
to
property
that
we
talked
about
today
on
the
northeast
side
of
Des
Moines,
with
interest
of
a
casino,
and
we
gave
up
that
to
essentially
go
into
a
partnership
with
Polk
County.
They
continue
to
respect
that.
Scott
did
an
outstanding
job
representing
our
interest
this
year
in
that
negotiation,
but.
