MEMORANDUM

"
Date: July 19, 1994
. 'i:'.
"
To: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Tom Scott, Chair, Planning & Zoning Commission
Re: Building Contractor Facilities in the CC-2 Zone
At its informal meeting of July 18, 1994, it was the consensus of the Planning & Zoning
Commission that a joint meeting ofthe Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council was not
necessary if the Council chooses not to accept the recommendation of the Commission regarding
building contractor facilities in the CC-2 zone. The Commission had recommended that such
facilities be considered as special exceptions in the CC-2 zone. However, Commissioners did
not feel strongly that this amendment was necessary. The Commission appreciates the Council's
policy of consulting with the Commission when the Council's decision appears likely to vary from.
the Commission's recommendation.

School District shall negotiate the location of the parcel for the potential school
site. Owner will retain possession of the parcel until the parcel may be
conveyed to the Iowa City Community School District as described herein. The
covenant will run with the title to that parcel which shall be designated a
"potential school site" on the Final Plat. This covenant shall remain in effect until
released of record by the City as set forth herein.
If the Iowa City Community School District decides to use the site and applies
for a Building Permit to build a school on the designated parcel within fifteen (15)
years from the date the parties execute this Conditional Zoning Agreement,
Owner shall convey the site to the School District. If the School District has not
applied for a Building Permit within fifteen (15) years from the date the parties
execute this Conditional Zoning Agreement, the covenant will expire and the use
of the parcel shall revert to the Owner. At that time, the City will execute a
release of the covenant so that the covenant will not constitute a lien and cloud
on the title to the parcel. That release will be recorded in the Johnson County
Recorder's Office at Owner's expense.
A
\:Y'
k.
If during the time period the covenant is in effect, the City enacts an Ordinance
requiring the payment of a School Impact Fee as part of the Final Plat approval
process, Owner will pay the required fees for those subdivision parts which have
not yet received Final Plat approval. No impact fees shall be paid for those
subdivision parts which have already received Final Plat approval at the time of
the enactment of the impact fee ordinance. However, if the School District uses
the site to construct a school and accepts conveyance ofthe site, the City and/or
the School District will rebate to the Owner all fees previously paid and Owner
shall not be required to pay any additional impact fees for subdivision parts
which may subsequently be submitted for final plat approval. If at any time
during the fifteen (15) years following execution of this Conditional Zoning
Agreement, the School District determines that the reserved site will not be used
for a public school, the School District will notify the City and Owner, and the
City will execute a release of the covenant upon receipt of written notice that
Owner has paid the required impact fees, if any.
Owner shall pay all costs associated with providing infrastructure for
development of the subject tract, including oversized costs, except for the
oversized costs for an east-west arterial street if such an arterial street is located
through the development.
