Thursday, March 14, 2013 NEWSPAPER •DAILYIOWAN.COM • TELEVISION 50¢ UI police numbers robust Regents OK housing The UI will sign a private contract to replace Hawkeye Court and Drive apartments, a move that will raise rent.

By Stacey Murray [email protected]

Affordable housing at the Hawk- eye Court and Hawkeye Drive apart- ments likely won’t be quite as afford- able next year. The state Board of Regents passed its first contract with a private con- struction firm Wednesday, charging Dallas-based Balfour Beatty Campus Solutions with the task of replacing the aging apartments. The replace- ment, however, will increase rent. The apartment buildings, first oc- cupied in the 1960s, primarily ac- commodate graduate students, inter- national students, and students with families. “It’s something that pains me, but this is our best option now,” UI Vice UI police Officer Eddie Cardenas scans the monitor in his squad car on Wednesday.

Iowa City’s UPTOWN!

Celebrating 65 Years on the Northside The Daily Iowan • Iowa City, Iowa • Thursday, March 14, 2013 | 7A News fuel costs Continued from front the last three years. This rise in operation- al costs has led to historic changes. “We raised our transit fares and passes for the first time in 15 years,” O’Brien said. “If the fuel costs continue to rise, it would lead to additional in- creases to fares and passes to cover those costs.” The Coralville Tran- sit noticed a strain on its budget as well. Although officials can’t pinpoint all of the direct effects of gas hikes, they do see a trend. “Often as we see fuel spikes, we also see spikes in ridership,” said Vicky Robrock, the director of Parking and Transporta- tion in Coralville. Not all transportation departments are negative- ly affected, though. Mike Wilson, the man- ager for the University of Iowa Fleet Services, sees a different result. “It’s actually good for our business in some ways,” he said. “When gas prices go up, people will stop using their vehicles and use us more.” One of the biggest fears for officials at the Cambus system is that the rises in fuel prices will be sharp. “If it takes a sudden in- crease, that’s where you have to look at cutting back,” McClatchey said. He said that if there is a gradual increase, the system can adjust to that. However, it can limit ser- vices and makes it difficult to expand. Alternative fuel sources are also an option — but not always the best one. The Cambus system runs partly on biofuel, which adds about 15 cents to fuel costs. “We’ve chosen to bear that expense to contribute to the university’s mes- sage of sustainability,” Mc- Clatchey said. Electric hybrid buses are also an option, but are not cheap. McClatchey said they could buy three reg- ular buses for the price of two hybrids. “Being a small system, we are really limited in what we can do to move to alternatives,” he said. The local transit sys- tems have also looked at alternatives. “We applied for grants along with Coralville Tran- sit and Cambus to procure hybrid buses in previous years but were not award- ed funding,” O’Brien said.

Cambus

The University of Iowa Cambus system is facing rising operational costs as fuel prices across the nation continue to climb. • In fiscal 2002, the Cambus system spent $147,000 on fuel • In fiscal 2012, they spent $781,000 on fuel • In fiscal 2002, fuel account- ed for 8 percent of the total operating costs • In fiscal 2012, fuel accounted for 23 percent of the total operating costs

Market I.C Kings’s Hugh Jindapants and Franky D. Lover perform during their show “The Dating Game” at Studio 13 on Feb. 28. (The Daily Iowan/Juan Carlos Herrera) St. The performance will feature local drag-king troupe I.C. Kings and will benefit the Domestic Violence Intervention Program. I.C Kings’ MissKitty performs during the show “The Dating Game” at Studio 13.(The Daily Iowan/Juan Carlos Herrera) Event organizers are asking for a donation in the form of one household item for admission. In addition to the performance, local business Hoard’s Bakery will give away pies to audience members through a raffle.
