Student representatives plan<br />

attack on tuition increases<br />

By Monica Seigel<br />

Stall Writer<br />

Representatives from the<br />

three state universities will<br />

meet at a legislative assembly<br />

in Cedar Falls Saturday to<br />

plan their attack against tuition<br />

increases.<br />

Th vent is being coordi-<br />

United Students of<br />

Iowa, student lobbying organization<br />

that works with the<br />

Iowa Legislature.<br />

USI Executive Director Bob<br />

Hansen said the delegates<br />

were chosen from among the<br />

three regents universities to<br />

discuss various issues affecting<br />

students.<br />

"This is the first stage of<br />

several in USI legislation,"<br />

Hansen said. "It is here that<br />

we will discuss the important<br />

issues affecting students of the<br />

Iowa universities. and through<br />

this discussion we will adopt<br />

the platform and set the<br />

agenda for the 1986-87 year."<br />

THE ASSEMBLY WILL then<br />

decide on "high priority"<br />

items to be addressed at subsequent<br />

legislatures from this<br />

platform, he said.<br />

Issues that will probably<br />

receive the most attention at<br />

the assembly include tuition,<br />

enrollment caps, access to<br />

higher education and rural<br />

concerns, he said.<br />

At the meeting VI Collegiate<br />

Association Council President<br />

Mike Reck and CAC Vice President<br />

Charles Du Mond are<br />

scheduled to present conctusions<br />

to their studies concerning<br />

the relationships between<br />

funding for the universities,<br />

tuition, financial aid and state<br />

appropriations.<br />

"We want to educate the rest<br />

of the delegates on some of the<br />

things we learned. It's important<br />

for us to pass on the<br />

information," Du Mond said.<br />

VI STUDENT SENATE President<br />

Joe Hansen, one of the<br />

delegates representing the UI,<br />

said the USI budget and<br />

bylaws will also be discussed<br />

at the assembly.<br />

"Almost anything can happen<br />

there," Hansen said.<br />

Carl Blake, USI campus director<br />

at University of Northern<br />

Iowa, said UNI is looking forward<br />

to hosting the assembly.<br />

"I'd like to see the issues<br />

come out strong. I imagine<br />

there will be some really good<br />

debates," Blake said.<br />

Tim Stanley, USI campus<br />

director at Iowa State University,<br />

said he hopes for strong<br />

attendance at the assembly.<br />

"We simply want to get our<br />

full allotment of representatives<br />

there this year. That way<br />

we can get all the people<br />

informed on the major issues,"<br />

Stanley said.<br />

Staff Writer<br />

More than 200 rural Iowa City re idents don't<br />

want a sand and gravel company buill on<br />

North Dubuque Street, claiming it may cause<br />

traffic problems and other difficulties.<br />

A petition containing 231 signatures was<br />

presented to the Johnson County Bo.ard of<br />

Supervisors Tuesday asking for the demal of a<br />

request by Bruce R. Glasgow, 834 N. Johnson<br />

St., to locate his sand and gravel operation on<br />

an area about two miles north of Iowa City.<br />

"We feel thaI large-scale development is<br />

inappropriate and dangerous in this area:'<br />

resident Adrian Korpel, 2013 Laurence Court,<br />

said.<br />

''THE ACCESS ROAD for the operation joins<br />

North Dubuque Street in a sharply curved<br />

part of a two-lane highway," Korpel said. "In<br />

our opinion this will aggravate an already<br />

hazardous traffic situation, for people entering<br />

and exiling the road as weJl as joggers,<br />

bikers and traffic on North Dubuque:'<br />

In addition, Korpel aid the proposed gravel<br />

operation will damage the appearance of the<br />

urrounding community.<br />

"We are perhaps one of the few communities<br />

in Iowa City with a pastoral look to it,"<br />

Korpell said. "This development would<br />

destroy that."<br />

Laura LoveJl, a member of the Iowa City<br />

Riverfront CommiSSion, also appeared before<br />

the board to express her concern about the<br />

project.<br />

She said the commission is worried how the<br />

project would affect the flow of the Iowa<br />

River, as well as the area surrounding the<br />

river.<br />

"WE HAVE CONCERNS over the environmental<br />

impact of the project on the Iowa<br />

River," Lovell said. "We would like to see the<br />

board delay a decision on this until an<br />

environmental impact study is done."<br />

The petition and complaints heard Tuesday<br />

caused the board to put off approving the<br />

request despite the fact that the Johnson<br />

County Zoning Commission unanimously<br />

approved it.<br />
