PUBLIC FORUM: Dr. Paul Readhead, 1200 Ridgewood Avenue, Ames, spoke as president of the
Izaak Walton League. Dr. Readhead advised that the League had not discussed the proposed
construction of the Children’s Convalescent Home at the time the rezoning for same was
scheduled for a Public Hearing (July 27, 1999); therefore, he had not appeared at that meeting.
The Children’s Convalescent Home is planned to be built near 13th and Dayton and would
be neighbors to the Izaak Walton League. Dr. Readhead wanted to state for the record that
noise is generated from shooting events held at the Izaak Walton League. He said these
events sometimes last from morning until 10:30 p.m. According to Dr. Readhead, a meeting
had been held with the developers of the Children’s Convalescent Home, and they were made
aware of these facts.
Ev Cherrington, 104 E. Date Court, Ames, spoke concerning his interest in the creation of a “free
bike” program in Ames. Mr. Cherrington had previously sent a letter to the Council, which had
been forwarded to Scott Logan, City Transportation Engineer. Mr. Logan had conducted research
on similar programs being implemented in other cities and had advised Mr. Cherrington of his
findings. Council Member Campbell asked if such a program could be initiated by private
individuals. Mr. Cherrington replied that the research showed that cities are backing away from
“free bike” programs due to liability concerns, so most are being run by private individuals. Council
Member Wirth asked if Mr. Cherrington had contacted the “Friends of Central Iowa Biking” group.
He replied that he had not, but felt that they probably would not be interested either due to liability
reasons. Council Member Cross asked who would be the target audience for such a program. It was
stated by Mr. Cherrington that it would be mostly students, but he hoped that others in the
community would take advantage of it as well. Council Member Wirth asked to have a copy of the
report compiled by Scott Logan.

prohibitions on Sixth Street, Carroll Avenue, and Fifth Street, but not along the metered areas
in the Downtown District) subject to the stipulation that the Committee will provide adults to
man City-provided barricades at 13 locations along the route; waiving the costs for traffic
control and police officers; and approving a rain date for the event of September 30.
Roll Call Vote: 5-0. Resolution declared adopted unanimously, signed by the Mayor, and hereby
made a portion of these minutes.
REQUEST FROM MAIN STREET TO NOT REINSTALL PARKING METERS ON MAIN
STREET: City Manager Steve Schainker reminded Council that the installation of parking meters
was meant to accomplish an important goal for the businesses owners, i.e., to promote turnover.
He said that the City’s Parking Fund is operated as an enterprise operation; the revenues
generated from the meters and fines are to cover the operating costs of maintaining and
enforcing the meters. Staff conservatively estimated the annual net loss of revenue to the
Parking Fund if the meters are not reinstalled on Main Street at $45,119. According to Mr.
Schainker, it is the belief of City staff that marking tires will not create the turnover
accomplished by retaining the meters; however if a change is made, it is important to designate
where the funds to cover the lost revenue will come from. Mr. Schainker explained several
options available to cover the lost revenue. These options were also discussed with
representatives of the Ames Main Street Business District when City staff met with them on
July 30.
Mayor Tedesco reminded Council that the contract for the Downtown Reconstruction Project
included the installation of parking meters. Council Member Wirth asked if a deduction in the
contract would result if a decision was made to not reinstall the meters. Paul Wiegand, Public
Works Director, stated that they would initiate a change order to deduct the cost of labor to
reinstall the meters, however, the City has already purchased the meters.
Dave Durlam, 226 Main Street, Ames, representing the Ames Main Street District, thanked the
Council for their dedication to the downtown area. He gave a synopsis of the meetings that the
downtown merchants have had since meeting with City representatives. Recognizing that there
is no solution that will satisfy everyone, Mr. Durlam asked the Council for more time to address
this issue, perhaps in a public-forum-type setting. He stated that the downtown business owners
would like to hear from their customers and asked for the City’s assistance in setting up a public
meeting to address this issue. Council Member Wirth asked for a summary of what the
merchants are hearing from their customers. Mr. Durlam said that customers are saying they
don’t like plugging meters and definitely do not like receiving parking tickets.
3
Council Member Parks asked what the schedule was for reinstallation of the meters. Mr.
Wiegand stated that they had asked for a final decision on this matter by September 30 in order
to avoid any additional costs from the contractor. Council Member Campbell inquired as to how
much investment the City had in the new parking meters. Paul Wiegand stated that 204 meters
had been purchased for Main Street at a cost of approximately $300 each.
Council Member Campbell said that she would like the public meeting to be engineered by the
Main Street District proprietors with the results reported to City officials. Mayor Tedesco felt
that the results of the meeting ideally should be presented to Council at their August 24, 1999,
meeting. Ms. Campbell stated that she is willing to look at any proposal presented, however,
she definitely feels that parking meter maintenance and enforcement should not be subsidized
with property taxes.
It is the opinion of Council Member Wirth that an integral part of the discussion at the public
meeting should be employee parking. Council Member Quirmbach said that another issue
needing to be addressed is the loss of revenue to the City.
Jim Moore, 305 Main, Ames, said that an idea for revenue recapture presented to him was to
lease parking spaces in the CBD lot and possibly the west-end parking lot at a cost of $20/month
to those persons needing to park for up to 12 hours a day. The reserved spaces at $35/month
would still be leased to those who need to park 24 hours a day. According to Mr. Moore, many
employees plug meters all day long, so meters are not accomplishing turnover.
Henry J. Vandergaast, 2727 Melrose Avenue, Ames, expressed his personal dislike for parking
meters. He feels that the shopping mall has been a cause of the decreased business downtown;
the stores in the shopping mall provide the type of goods being demanded by consumers.
Kathy Vannoy, 1428 Roosevelt, Ames, an owner of a part-time business in the downtown area,
explained the difficulty she had in leasing a reserved space in the CBD lot. Ms. Vannoy stated
that the feedback she has been receiving from customers is that they did not want parking
meters.
Moved by Quirmbach, seconded by Parks, to table discussion of the permanent policy until the
City Council meeting to be held on August 24, 1999.
Vote on Motion: 5-0. Motion declared carried unanimously.
Moved by Campbell, seconded by Quirmbach, to waive enforcement of parking meters on Main
Street from Kellogg to Burnett until August 24, 1999.
Moved by Wirth, seconded by Cross, to amend the motion to extend the waiver of enforcement
of parking meters on Main Street from Duff to the bridge until August 24, 1999.

the Bandshell to the National Register of Historic Places meets criteria “A” and “C” and
recommend National Register eligibility to the State Nominations Review Committee.
5
Council Member Cross stated that perhaps they should exclude some footage or make the size
of the area smaller in case improvements were wanted to be made on the western edge. Steve
Schainker said that in the event federal funds are used for any improvements, the federal
government must consider alternatives for the property, and it is unknown if the project would
be prevented if such alternatives could not be arrived at by the parties. Ray Anderson, City
Planner, advised that comments could be made on the nomination form stating the preference
for exclusion of some footage.
Moved by Cross, seconded by Parks, to amend the motion to direct staff to make a comment on
the nomination form to exclude the west 20' along Duff Avenue.

Director will be present.
Vote on Motion: 5-0. Motion declared carried unanimously.
URBAN REVITALIZATION PROGRAM MATRICES: Steve Schainker gave a chronology of
events leading up to the creation of the Urban Revitalization Program Criteria Matrices. Mr.
Schainker explained the proposed criteria matrices for multiple-family and commercial uses of
property. He said that in each instance, the property must display one or two required conditions
(thresholds) before it can be determined that the property is eligible to be considered further for
the tax abatement incentive.
Council Member Wirth stated that she does not agree with the threshold condition of slum and
blighted that stated that the property must have been given a condition rating of “poor” or “very
poor.” She feels that the City Assessor has different criteria for assigning the degree of blight.
6
Mr. Schainker said that definitions of “poor” and “very poor” conditions, perhaps those used by
HUD, could be included.
Council Member Parks recommended that these matrices be approved, and if the Program is not
doing what Council intended for it to do, Council could then pass amendments to the guidelines.
Moved by Quirmbach, seconded by Wirth, to amend the language of the last two criteria in the
“Required” column under the “Underutilized” category on the Multiple-Family Residential and
the Commercial Criteria Matrices to state that the property must be brought into conformance
and the words “flood plain” be changed to “floodway fringe.”
Vote on Motion: 5-0. Motion declared carried unanimously.
Council Member Quirmbach suggested that Council consider creating an “Optional” column for
“Affordable Housing Units Included in a Project” under the Multiple-Family Residential Criteria
Matrix. He feels this would be an excellent opportunity to grant incentives for the creation of
affordable housing.
Discussion ensued concerning the wording under the “Landscaping” criterion on the
Commercial Criteria Matrix. Mr. Schainker stated that staff may need to review this item.
Moved by Parks, seconded by Cross, to amend the Commercial Criteria Matrix to exclude the
Downtown/Campustown Service Center areas and to create a new matrix pertaining specifically
to those areas.
Vote on Motion: 5-0. Motion declared carried unanimously.
It was requested by Council Member Quirmbach that the “Signage” criterion be placed under
the “Design Standards” and “Landscaping” criteria on the Commercial Criteria Matrix since
those three criteria are required, not optional.
Moved by Wirth, seconded by Cross, to direct City staff to determine if development proposals
meet the minimum thresholds established by the Multiple-Family Residential and Commercial
Criteria Matrices before submitting them to Council for approval.
Vote on Motion: 4-1. Voting aye: Campbell, Cross, Quirmbach, Wirth. Voting nay: Parks.
Motion declared carried.
Moved by Quirmbach, seconded by Cross, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 99-305 approving the
Urban Revitalization Program Criteria Matrices with the language changes previously agreed
to and with the exclusion of the Downtown/Campustown Service Center areas.
Roll Call Vote: 5-0. Resolution declared adopted unanimously, signed by the Mayor, and hereby
made a portion of these minutes.
Moved by Quirmbach, seconded by Cross, to direct staff to re-examine the Multiple-Family
Criteria Matrix and bring forward a proposal with an “Optional” requirement for the creation of
affordable housing.
7
Vote on Motion: 5-0. Motion declared carried unanimously.
Moved by Parks, seconded by Campbell, to discuss design criteria pertaining to the landscaping
requirement for the Downtown/Campustown Service Center areas at the meeting of August 24,
1999, when design guidelines for Main Street businesses are discussed.
Vote on Motion: 5-0. Motion declared carried unanimously.
City Attorney John Klaus advised that the following things need to occur in this process: (1)
staff and developer need to devise a plan that meets the criteria; (2) a notice needs to be
published 30 days in advance of the hearing; (3) a hearing needs to be held and the plan
approved; (4) an ordinance needs to be adopted. He believes that this process would take a
minimum of 30 days depending on how much time is needed to finalize the plan.
EXPENDITURES FOR NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS FOR 1999/2000:
Moved by Parks, seconded by Wirth, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 99-306 approving the
expenditure of $19,189 for the following six Neighborhood Improvement Projects for 1999/2000
and to authorize staff to solicit additional project proposals this fall and/or winter to expend the
remaining funds ($30,811).

DISCUSSION OF STORM-DAMAGED TREE POLICY: Moved by Campbell, seconded by
Parks, to add citizens living outside the designated pick-up area agreed to at the Council’s
August 3, 1999, special meeting, by having them call the Public Works Department at 239-5160
by 5:00 p.m. on August 16, 1999, to request pick up of tree debris from the most-recent storm.
Henry Vandergaast asked how the public would be informed of this change. Mayor Tedesco
stated that the press would be notified and it would also be placed on Channel 12.
Council Member Campbell stated that she had also had requests from the public to have the
timeframe extended for using the free drop-off site at S. 16th and Mulberry.

August 22, 1999, at 5:00 p.m.
Vote on Motion: 5-0. Motion declared carried unanimously.
