Re: FY2013 28E Agreement with University Heights to provide transit service
Introduction: Included for consideration for the June 19, 2012 City Council Meeting you will
find the Item & Comment, Resolution and supporting documentation for the 28 E Agreement
between the City of Iowa City and the City of University Heights for FY2013 fixed transit
services.
Historylbackground: University Heights has contracted with the City of Iowa City for transit
services since the 1970's. The contract amount is based on a formula taking into account the
Consumer Price Index as an escalator of the previous year's contract. This contract is then
submitted to the City of University Heights for approval. The University Heights City Council
approved this agreement at their June 12, 2012 council meeting.
Discussion of Solution: Per this agreement, University Heights agrees to pay an amount
of $34,277.00 for contracted fixed route transit services. This was an increase of 2.2% which
was based on the National Consumer Price Index.
Recommendation: It is my recommendation that City Council approve this resolution for the
28E Agreement between University Heights and the City of Iowa City for fixed route transit
services.

To: Tom Markus, City Manager
From: Rick Fosse, Public Works Director
Re: S. Dubuque Street - Storm Sewer and Water Main Improvement Project
Introduction: The proposed project addresses flooding in the street as well as in and around
properties along S. Dubuque Street and Wright Street between Prentiss Street and the Iowa
Interstate Railroad.
History /Background: Currently there are two small intakes on the north side of the railroad
which are intended to collect stormwater drainage. This drainage is then piped under the
railroad with small and non - standard pipes which outlet at grade into the S. Dubuque Street
gutter line. The performance of this storm sewer has been marginal for many years, however
the problem was intensified a few years ago when the Iowa Interstate Railroad raised the grade
of the crossing on S. Dubuque Street. The higher grade does not allow the storm water to
continue to flow south when the capacity of the intakes is exceeded. As a result, the excess
water flows east causing related damage including undermining of sidewalks and parking,
severe washout behind businesses, and ponding on the street.
Discussion of Solutions: The existing storm sewer system lacks the capacity and reliability to
serve the changed drainage conditions. Larger storm sewer pipes and intakes as well as
additional intakes are necessary to improve the situation. While working in this location, and
due to age and condition, it is recommended to replace the water main and asphalt overlay as
part of this project.
Financial Impact: The estimated construction cost for this project is $283,000 The project will
be funded with Stormwater and Water revenue proceeds, and Road Use Tax (Pavement
Rehabilitation).
Recommendation: Staff recommends proceeding with the following schedule for this project:
June 19 — Set Public Hearing
July 10 — Hold Public Hearing (approve plans and specifications)
June 31 —Award Project

MEMORANDUM
Date: June 12, 2012
To: Tom Markus, City Manager
From: Michael Moran, Director of Parks and Recreation
Re: Consider a resolution for the renovation of fields 1,2,3,4, at the Napoleon Park Girls
Softball complex
Introduction:
This is a project for the renovation of fields 1, 2, 3 and 4 at Napoleon Park to promote better
drainage, increase their playability, limit the damage to wet fields and increase the safety of
the players.
History /Background:
When the existing fields were constructed funds were not available to complete all the
grading and improvements envisioned for the complex. Over time many of the improvements
have been added as part of the operating budget or through a cooperative effort with Iowa
City Girls Softball. The improvements to date include additional backstops, dugout covers,
pitching warm up areas, batting cages, lights on 6 fields and scoreboards. This
grading /renovation project will be the last major improvement to the first four fields. It will
raise them to an excellent level of playability throughout the year but especially during the
always difficult spring season when we experience the dramatic weather that places staff in
the position of getting fields ready before, after and sometimes during rain.
Discussion of Solution:
The fields require renovation to achieve appropriate slopes so water can move across the
fields and drain away or be captured in a drain tile system and moved off of the field. There
are areas on fields 3 and 4 that slope directly toward the infields where players stand
anywhere from 6 to 14 inches above the infield. Correcting this situation will move the
water away from the infield and across the outfield to either be captured in the drain the or
moved off the field through surface movement. On fields 1 and 2 water is held on the
outfield in low areas. Grading will fill these areas and establish the appropriate slope for
water movement. Installation of drain tile will significantly assist with water movement as
noted above. The project will be started at the conclusion of the Iowa City Girls Softball
League and concluded by October 1, 2012 to minimize disruption to users and allowing new
turf to be established before the start of a new season.
June 12, 2012
Page 2
Recommendation:
This project is recommended to correct the slope and drainage issues by correctly grading the
fields to promote positive drainage off of the fields. The installation of drain tile is
recommended as the important complementary process that increases the efficiency of the
grades and slopes.
Fiscal Impact:
Funds ($180,000) were designated in the FY 10 budget for this project. Due to the effects of
the 2008 flood and the amount of damage to City Park this project was postponed until work
to correct all the damage was completed. The funds have been carried over to support the
project in this fiscal year.

TO: Tom Markus, City Manager
FROM: Steven J. Rackis, Housing Administrator
SUBJECT: Updates and amendments to the Iowa City Housing Authority's Housing Choice
Voucher (HCV) Administrative Plan and Admissions and Continued Occupancy
(ACOP) Plan
The Iowa City Housing Authority is proposing changes to the following Sections of our Housing Choice
Voucher (HCV) Administrative Plan and Admissions and Continued Occupancy (ACOP) Plan:
HCV: Section 4.8 Section 8 Tenant Selection Criteria
Section 5.1 Waiting List Admissions and Special Admissions
Section 5.2 Preferences
ACOP: 8.4 Public Housing Tenant Selection Criteria
10.1 Preferences
The Housing and Community Development Commission reviewed and approved these changes at their
May 17, 2012, meeting.
1. Proposed changes to HCV Section 4.8 /ACOP Section 8.4 Family/Tenant Selection Criteria:
Under federal regulations found at 24 CFR 982.552 and 24 CFR 960.204, the Housing Authority
must deny certain applicants and it has the discretion to deny others based on certain actions or
inactions by family members. The Housing Authority proposes the following changes to our selection
criteria that falls into the may deny category (complete selection and termination criteria are
attached):
Add:
• Burglary in the 2nd degree or higher as defined in Chapter 713 of the Iowa Code or a law
of any city, county, or state that substantially corresponds to this section (3 -year period of
ineligibility).
Modify:
• Change the period of ineligibility from 3 -years to 1 -year for the following offenses:
➢ Disorderly house as defined in Section 8 -5 -5 of the City Code or a law of any city,
county, or state that substantially corresponds to this section;
SRackis Page 1 6/11/2012
➢ Disorderly conduct as defined in Section 8 -5 -1 of the City Code or section 723.4 of
the Iowa Code or a law of any city, county, or state that substantially corresponds to
this section. Disorderly conduct that does not constitute violent criminal behavior.
No change in intent, new language:
If the family currently owes rent or other amounts to the a) ICHA; b) to any other
Housing Authority; c) to other Federally assisted housing under the 1937 Act (as
amended); d) Federally assisted housing as defined in 24 CFR 5.100; e) any other
affordable housing program (1 -year period of ineligibility).
2. Proposed changes to HCV Section 5.1 Waiting List Admissions and Special Admissions:
The Housing Authority may admit an applicant for participation in the program either as a special
admission or as a waiting list admission.
If HUD awards funding that is targeted for families with specific characteristics such as families
living in specific units (e.g. HUD project based opt out), the Iowa City Housing Authority will use the
special admission for those families.
Remove:
• Family Unification Program (FUP) as a Special Admission
In 1998, the Iowa City Housing Authority received funding to operate a Family Unification Program
in partnership with the Iowa Department of Human Services. This funding was "rolled into' the
regular HCV program in 1999 and HUD stopped tracking these vouchers. While we continued this
program through this 2012, we now recommend removing FUP as a Special Admission.
3. Proposed changes to HCV Section 5.2 /ACOP 10.1 Preferences
current
Displaced: Individuals or families displaced by
government action or whose dwelling has been
extensively damaged or destroyed as a result of
a disaster declared or otherwise formally
recognized pursuant to federal disaster relief
laws.
Displaced: Individuals or families displaced by
government action or whose dwelling has been
extensively damaged or destroyed as a result of
a disaster declared or otherwise formally
recognized pursuant to federal disaster relief
laws. This preference is only for disaster
victims in the State of Iowa.

entertains, inspires, and educates, Fi1mScene works to build and connect the community through
film.
FilmScene's primary goal is the operation of a full-time cinema in downtown Iowa City that will
showcase the best in American independent and international filmmaking in a vibrant and
inviting setting.
The City of Iowa City and University of Iowa recently commissioned a study which found
Movie Theater to be the top choice among all. consumers for merchandise desired downtown.
(Downtown Iowa City, Iowa Strategic Assessment, December 2011, by DIVARIS Real Estate, p.
90)_
There are a number of successful independent cinemas in other cities. While Film Scene is not
interested in operating a restaurant, it is important to its viability that it be able to offer food
(which would be catered in), wine and beer. These components have proven to be important to
the success of Cinemas in. other cities and are included in FilmScene's business model. While
the focus of FilmScene will not be food or alcohol, these are necessary components.
Specifically I request that Exhibit ``I3" (Minimum Uses and Improvements) to the above
referenced Redevelopment Agreement be amended to add the following:
"However, notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, a portion of the I' floor
of the property (not to exceed 40% of the gross square footage of the I st floor) may be used for a
movie theater. A kitchen shall not be permitted but the theater may serve food, beer and wine,
during its hours of operation subject to applicable licensing requirements."
The attached plan of the first level plan shows, in red, the general area where the theater
component would be located. It is behind the elevator in an area that has no glass frontage.
I would like to get this on the Council Agenda as soon as possible so I can explore this location
in earnest with FilmScene as a temporary home for it's Cinema,
Please let me know what you need from to proceed with this request.
Thank you very much for your assistance.

Re: CDBG Economic Development Funding Recommendation
(Blitz Boxing and Fitness, LLC
Introduction:
The City Council annually allocates Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds from
the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for eligible economic development
activities including financial assistance to micro - enterprises or small businesses. Chad and
Mandi Wiltz and Ibrahim Funmilayo, owners of (Blitz Boxing and Fitness, request CDBG
financial assistance for working capital to open a new fitness club at Sycamore Mall. The
attached resolution allocates these funds to (Blitz Boxing and Fitness.
History /Background:
The first TITLE Boxing Club opened in 2008 in Kansas City. The applicants paid $35,000 to the
franchise to protect franchise ownership in Iowa City, Coralville, and North Liberty. The fitness
club uses traditional boxing and kickboxing techniques to achieve fitness and health benefits.
The business qualifies under the Community Development Block Grant program as the
business will create three full time equivalent jobs where 51 % of the positions will be held by or
made available to low -to- moderate income residents. These positions include a full time
general manager and three to five sales associates. In addition to employees, the business will
contract with area personal trainers for classes.
Discussion of Solution:
Applicant secured a $150,000 SBA loan through Cedar Rapids Bank and Trust. The owners
have invested $35,000 to purchase the franchise and estimate start-up costs of $185,000, not
including the franchise fee previously paid. CDBG assistance is requested to provide sufficient
working capital during the start-up months. The business will be located in the Sycamore Mall.
Recommendation:
The Council Economic Development Committee recommended funding this request with the
following terms: $35,000 loan, 1% interest to be repaid within 7 years. The loan will be partially
secured by a mortgage on the owner's home, lien on the owner's personal vehicles and a lien
on all business assets. These terms reduce the City's risk and are in line with what the City has
provided to similar applicants in this program.
Due to the quality of the business plan and a history of paying loan obligations, the committee
recommended funding this business even though the loan will not be fully secured.
Funding Source:
Approved under the FY12 budget — CDBG Economic Development Fund.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual obligations of the
parties hereto, each of them does hereby covenant and agree with the other as follows:
PART I
Section 1. Construction and Uses.
The Redeveloper's construction on 1020 William St. & 2611 Muscatine Ave. will consist
of a commercial structure generally consistent with the redevelopment proposal shown on
Exhibit "C" as submitted by the Redeveloper on June 4, 2012, and as described more fully on

proposal attached as Exhibit"C".
Section 2. Representations and Warranties of Redeveloper. The Redeveloper makes
the following representations and warranties:
(a) The Redeveloper is a limited liability company, duly organized under the laws of
the State of Iowa, has power to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations
hereunder, and is not in violation of any provisions of its articles of organization, operating
agreement, any other agreement or the laws of the State of Iowa.
(b) The Redeveloper has the full power and authority to execute this Agreement and
this Agreement shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Redeveloper in
accordance with its terms, and the consent of no other party is required for the execution and
delivery of this Agreement by the Redeveloper or the consummation of the transaction
contemplated hereby.
(c) The making and performance of this Agreement by the Redeveloper and the
execution and delivery of the documents to be delivered by the Redeveloper pursuant hereto,
have been duly authorized by all necessary action of the Redeveloper, and this Agreement and
such documents will be valid and binding obligations of the Redeveloper enforceable in
accordance with their terms.
(d) The Redeveloper will cause the Minimum Improvements to be constructed,
operated and maintained in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Urban Renewal
Plan and all local, state and federal laws and regulations (including, but not limited to,

regulations), except for minor variances necessary to construct the Minimum Improvements
contained in any Construction Plans approved by the City.

timely manner, all required permits, licenses and approvals, and will meet, in a timely manner,
4
all requirements of all applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations which must be
obtained or met before the Minimum Improvements may be lawfully constructed. The
Redeveloper's Architect will work with the City's staff Design Review Committee on the final
designs of the project. The Design Review Committee will ultimately approve or disapprove the

Exhibit C, it shall be subject to approval by Council.
(f) The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement are not prevented by, limited by, in conflict with, or result in a

indebtedness, agreement or instrument of whatever nature to which the Redeveloper is now a
party or by which it is bound, nor do they constitute a default under any of the foregoing.

Improvements, when combined with the value of the Property and related site improvements, to
equal or exceed the Assessor's Minimum Actual Value set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement.

violation of any environmental law or regulation (other than those notices, if any, of which the

planned to be filed by any party relating to any violation of any local, State or federal
environmental law, regulation or review procedure, and the Redeveloper is not aware of any
violation of any local, State or federal law, regulation or review procedure which would give any
person a valid claim under any State or federal environmental statute.

financing commitments, which commitments shall be sufficient to enable the Redeveloper to
successfully complete the Minimum Improvements as contemplated in this Agreement.
Redeveloper will obtain all financing commitments necessary for the construction of the
Minimum Improvements prior to the issuance of a building or foundation permit but in no event
later than 5 (five) months from the date of this Agreement, and provide a copy of such

financing upon terms and conditions satisfactory to Redeveloper and City. In the event such
financing is not obtained by Redeveloper within 5 (five)months from the date of this Agreement,
Redeveloper or the City shall have the right to terminate this agreement.
(j) The Redeveloper will cooperate fully with the City and the owner of the property
contiguous to the subject Property in resolution of any traffic, parking, trash removal, public
safety or any other problems which may arise in connection with the construction and operation
of the Minimum Improvements.

in Section 101 of this Agreement contemplates that the property tax revenues generated from the
Project legally described in Exhibit E, attached hereto, will be sufficient to repay the 20 year loan

enter into a Minimum Assessment Agreement in a form in substantial compliance with Exhibit F

Improvements for this Project.
The Redeveloper acknowledges and agrees that it, or the owners of condominium units
sold, will pay when due all taxes and assessments, general or special, and all other charges
whatsoever levied upon or assessed or placed against the Property and further agrees that, prior
to the final maturity date of all bonds, notes, loans or other obligations issued or undertaken by
the City to finance its costs of the Project:
(a) neither it nor the owners of condominium units sold will seek administrative or
judicial review of the applicability of any tax statute determined by any official to be applicable
to the Property or the Redeveloper, or the owners of condominium units sold, or raise the
inapplicability of any such tax statute as a defense in any proceedings, including delinquent tax
proceedings;
(b) neither it nor the owners of condominium units sold will seek administrative or
judicial review of the constitutionality of any tax statute determined by any official to be
applicable to the Property or the Redeveloper or the owners of condominium units sold, or raise
the unconstitutionality of any such tax statute as a defense in any proceedings, including
delinquent tax proceedings;
(c) it will not cause a reduction in the taxable valuation upon which real property
taxes are paid with respect to the Project, which consists of a commercial structure generally
consistent with the redevelopment proposal shown on Exhibit "C" as submitted by the
Redeveloper (and as more specifically outlined in Exhibit D Minimum Improvements and Uses),
below the amount of$2,225,000 after taking into consideration any factors such as "roll-backs"
which would reduce the taxable value of the property as of January 1, 2014. ("Minimum Actual
Value")through:
(i) willful destruction of the Property or any part thereof;
(ii) a request to the City Assessor of Iowa City, Iowa to reduce the Minimum
Actual Value of the Property below the amount noted above;
7
(iii) an appeal to the Board of Review of the City of Iowa City or to the Board
of Review of Johnson County to reduce the Minimum Actual Value of the Property
below the amount noted above;
(iv) a petition to the Board of Review of the State of Iowa or to the Director of
Revenue and Finance of the State of Iowa to reduce the Minimum Actual Value of the
Property below the amount noted above;
(v) an action in any District Court of the State of Iowa seeking a reduction in
the Minimum Actual Value of the Property below the amount noted above;
(vi) an application to the Director of Revenue and Finance of the State of Iowa
requesting an abatement of real property taxes pursuant to any present or future statute or
ordinance;
(vii) any other proceedings, whether administrative, legal or equitable, with any
administrative body within the City of Iowa City, Johnson County, or the State of Iowa or
within any court of the State of Iowa or the federal government.
The Redeveloper or owners of condominium units sold shall not, prior to the final
maturity date of the bonds, notes, loans or other obligations issued or undertaken by the City to
finance its costs of Contribution to the Project, as outlined in Section 101 hereof, cause or
voluntarily permit the Property to become other than taxable property (except as permitted
herein); to be taxable at an amount less than the Minimum Actual Value noted above; to be
owned by a utility or any other entity of a type where the assessed value of taxable property of
such entity is not treated as located within the Project Area in its entirety; to be owned by any
entity having tax exempt status; or apply for a deferral of property tax on the Property pursuant
to any present or future statute or ordinance. Nothing contained herein is intended to, and shall
not be construed to, in any way limit Redeveloper's right to sell condominium units in the
Project at any time subject to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Minimum
Assessment Agreement.
The Redeveloper agrees that it and its successors in interest, including owners of
condominium units sold, is bound by the applicable Minimum Assessment Agreements attached
as Exhibit F fixing the Minimum Actual Value of the Property as approved by the Assessor and
the City as set forth herein. The Redeveloper shall provide to the City a title opinion showing all
lienholders, and all such lienholders shall consent to the Minimum Assessment Agreements.
The Redeveloper recognizes that the grant to the Redeveloper pursuant to the Agreement
is conditional upon sufficient property taxes being generated by this Property to repay the costs
of the bonds, notes, loans or other obligations issued or undertaken by the City to make such
grant. The City will need property taxes from the Property in the amounts and at the times set
forth in Schedule Y to the applicable Minimum Assessment Agreement. If for any reason the
property taxes are less than the amount set forth on Schedule Y for any fiscal year, the assessor
shall increase the assessed value of the Project for the next fiscal year in an amount to cover such
property tax deficiency. If, for any reason, the assessor does not so increase the assessed value,
Redeveloper or its successors in interest, including owners of the condominium units sold, shall
8
make a payment to the City in the amount of the difference between the property tax revenue and
the cost of the bonds, notes, loans or other obligations (hereinafter"shortfall").
The Redeveloper contemplates that the Project will consist of three condominium units.
The Redeveloper agrees that at the time of the execution of the declaration required by Chapter
499B Horizontal Property (Condominiums) of the Code of Iowa 2011, an attachment to the
declaration will be executed by the Redeveloper, the City and the City Assessor allocating a
portion of the Minimum Actual Value to each unit.
The Minimum Actual Values herein established shall be of no further force and effect
and the Minimum Assessment Agreements shall terminate on April 1, 2035 when the final
installment on the General Fund loan is made, or when the loan is paid in full, whichever is
earlier.
The Minimum Assessment Agreements shall be certified by the Assessor for the City as
provided in Iowa Code Section 403.6(19) and shall be filed for record in the office of the
Johnson County Recorder, and such filing shall constitute notice to any subsequent
encumbrancer or purchaser of the Property (or part thereof), whether voluntary or involuntary,
and such Minimum Assessment Agreement shall be binding and enforceable in its entirety
against any such subsequent purchaser or encumbrancer, including the holder of any First
Mortgage.
If, for any reason, the Minimum Assessment Agreement is held to be invalid or
unenforceable for any reason whether in whole or in part and the property tax revenue generated
by the Project is insufficient to pay the loan payments as they become due, the Redeveloper or its
successors in interest, including owners of the condomium units sold, agrees to make a
contractual payment to the City in the amount of the difference between the amount of the
property tax revenue and the amount of the loan payment.
Section 6. Notices and Demands
A notice, demand or other communication under this Agreement by either party to the
other shall be sufficiently given or delivered if it is dispatched by registered or certified mail,
postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or delivered personally, and

Manager at City Hall, 410 E. Washington St, Iowa City, Iowa, 52240, or at such other
address with respect to either party as that party may from time to time designate in
writing and forward to the other as provided in this Section.
Section 7. Counterparts.
The Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute
one and the same instrument.

PART II
ARTICLE I. CITY CONTRIBUTIONS TO PROJECT
Section 101. Contributions by City. The City agrees to the following contributions in
connection with the Project:
(a) The City agrees to make a loan from its General Fund balance with a 20 year
repayment schedule and an annual interest rate of 3.25% to fund a construction
grant to the Redeveloper and to finance the Project as outlined below provided,
however, that the City may, in its sole discretion, fund such grant in whole or in
part through any other means available to the City. In no event shall the City
make such loan until Redeveloper has satisfied the financial commitments stated
in Article III, Section 303.
(b) The City will make a construction grant for the use by the Redeveloper. Based on
a final total project cost of$5,069,344 the grant shall be $625,000. In the event
the total project cost is less than said amount by 10% or more the final grant
payments shall be reduced on a pro-rata basis. For example, if the total project
cost is 11% less than $5,069,344, the grant shall be reduced by 1%. The grant
funds shall be released to the Redeveloper on a pro rata basis with the proceeds of
the construction loan for progress payments to the contractor based on
Applications for Payment submitted to the Architect by the Contractor at such
time as Certificates of Payment are issued by the Architect and in the amounts so
certified. In the event that the total project cost is less than the estimated final
total project cost by 10% or more City will adjust the final progress payments
accordingly and/or Redeveloper will repay to City any overpaid amounts.
(c ) The City shall make a forgivable loan of $300,000 to Redeveloper upon the
Redeveloper's acquisition of 1020 William St. and 2611 Muscatine Ave. through
the City's Gap Financing for Towncrest Catalyst Projects. Redeveloper will give
the City a mortgage on said properties to secure its obligation to construct the
Project, which mortgage will be released upon issuance of a Certificate of
Occupancy and sale of the entire Redevelopment Property and will be partially
released upon the sale or lease of each condominium. Said mortgage shall be
subordinate to the mortgage of the lender providing financing necessary to enable
the Redeveloper to construct the minimum improvements required under this
Agreement. In the event construction is not substantially complete within the
time provided in Section 3 of Part I of this Agreement Redeveloper will refund
said $300,000 to City.
(d) The City shall pay the Redeveloper a matching grant of $25,000 for
predevelopment expenses such as architectural, engineering, legal and
environmental assessment. Based on cost documentation and invoices, the City
will pay 50% of each eligible invoice to the Redeveloper until the City has paid
the Redeveloper $25,000. City will pay each invoice within thirty (30) days of its
10
submittal. Redeveloper will have no obligation to repay such expenses in the
event the construction of the Minimum Improvements is not commenced.
ARTICLE II. RIGHTS OF ACCESS TO PROPERTY
Section 201. Right of Entry for Utility Service. The City reserves for itself, and any
public utility company, as may be appropriate,the unqualified right to enter upon the Property at
all reasonable times for the purpose of reconstructing, maintaining, repairing, or servicing the
following public utilities located within the Property boundary lines:
a. storm sewer;
b. water; and
c. electricity.
The City shall, within 30 days after the date this agreement is signed, provide
Redeveloper with the location and description of all such utilities. If the location of any utility
prevents, or makes impracticable, the placement of the contemplated building on the lot, the
Redeveloper may terminate this agreement.
Section 202. Redeveloper Not To Construct Over Utility Easements. The Redeveloper
shall not construct any building or other structure or improvement on, over, or within the
boundary lines of any easement for public utilities unless such construction is provided for in
such easement or has been approved by the City. If approval for such construction is requested
by the Redeveloper, the City shall use its best efforts to assure that such approval shall not be
withheld unreasonably. If relocation of such utilities is reasonable, Redeveloper shall pay all
costs of such relocation.
Section 203. Access to Property. The Redeveloper shall permit the representatives of
the City access to the Property at all reasonable times which it deems necessary for the purposes
of this Agreement including, but not limited to, inspection of all work being performed in
connection with the construction of the Minimum Improvements. No compensation shall be
payable nor shall any charge be made in any form by any party for the access provided for in this
Section.
ARTICLE III. CONSTRUCTION PLANS; CONSTRUCTION OF
IMPROVEMENTS; CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION
Section 301. Plans for Construction of Improvements. Plans and specifications with
respect to the redevelopment of the Property and the construction of certain improvements
thereon, to consist of a commercial structure generally consistent with the redevelopment
proposal shown on Exhibit "C" as submitted by the Redeveloper on June 4, 2012, and the
"Minimum Improvements" shown on Exhibit D and as outlined in Section 1, Part I above,
(hereinafter "Minimum Improvements"), shall be in conformity with the Urban Renewal Plan
and this Agreement, and all applicable Federal, State and local laws and regulations. As
11
promptly as possible after the date of this Agreement, and, in any event, no later than the time
specified therefore in Paragraph (a), Section 4 of Part I hereof, the Redeveloper shall submit to
the City, for approval by the City Departments of Planning, Public Works and Housing and
Inspection Services, or their designee(s), plans, drawings, specifications, and related documents,
and the proposed construction schedule in sufficient completeness and detail to show that such
"Minimum Improvements" and construction thereof will be in accordance with the provisions of
the Urban Renewal Plan, this Agreement, and all applicable codes. Said plans, drawings,
specifications, related documents, and progress schedule, together with any and all changes
therein approved in writing by the City in accordance with Section 302 hereof, are, except as
otherwise clearly indicated by the context, are collectively defined as "Construction Plans" with
respect to the "Minimum Improvements" to be constructed. The City shall, if the Construction
Plans conform to the provisions of the Urban Renewal Plan, this Agreement, and all applicable
codes, approve in writing such Construction Plans and no further filing by the Redeveloper or
approval by the City thereof shall be required except with respect to any material change. The
City will then, upon appropriate showing of compliance with the requirements of the previous
sentence, issue the appropriate building permit(s).
Failure by the City to identify a code deficiency during plan review does not, however,
relieve the Redeveloper from any obligation to comply with all applicable code provisions. Such
Construction Plans shall, in any event, be deemed approved unless rejection thereof in writing by
the City, in whole or in part, setting forth in detail the reasons therefore, shall be made within the
time specified in Part 1, Section 4hereto. If the City so rejects the Construction Plans in whole
or in part as not being in conformity with the Urban Renewal Plan, this Agreement, or all
applicable codes, the Redeveloper shall submit new or corrected Construction Plans which are in
conformity with the Urban Renewal Plan, this Agreement, and all applicable codes within the
time specified in Paragraph (b), Section 4hereof, after written notification to the Redeveloper of
the rejection.
The provisions of this Section relating to approval, rejection, and resubmission of
corrected Construction Plans herein above provided with respect to the Construction Plans shall
continue to apply until the Construction Plans have been approved by the City: Provided, that in
any event the Redeveloper shall submit Construction Plans which are in conformity with the
requirements of the Urban Renewal Plan for the Project,this Agreement and all applicable codes,
as determined by the City, no later than the time specified therefore in Paragraph c, Section 4 of
Part I hereof. All work with respect to the "Minimum Improvements" to be constructed or
provided by the Redeveloper on the Property shall be in conformity with the Construction Plans
as approved by the City. The term "Minimum Improvements", as used in this Agreement, shall
be deemed to have reference to the "Minimum Improvements" as provided and specified in the
Construction Plans as so approved and incorporated herein by Exhibit D.
Approval of the Construction Plans by the City shall not relieve any obligation to comply
with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, or the provision of applicable federal, State and
local laws, ordinances and regulations, nor shall approval of the Construction Plans by the City
be deemed to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default. Approval of Construction Plans
hereunder is solely for purposes of this Agreement, and shall not constitute approval for any
other City purpose nor subject the City to any liability for the Minimum Improvements as
constructed."
12
Section 302. Changes in Construction Plans. If the Redeveloper desires to make any
substantial change in the Construction Plans after their approval by the City, the Redeveloper
shall submit the proposed change to the City for its approval. If the Construction Plans, as
modified by the proposed change, conform to the requirements of Section 301 hereof with
respect to such previously approved Construction Plans, the City shall approve the proposed
change and notify the Redeveloper in writing of its approval. Such change in the Construction
Plans shall, in any event, be deemed approved by the City unless rejection thereof, in whole or in
part, by written notice thereof by the City to the Redeveloper, setting forth in detail the reasons
therefore, shall be made within the period specified therefore in Paragraph d, Section 4 of Part I
hereof.
Section 303. Evidence of Equity Capital and Mortgage Financing. As promptly as
possible and, in any event, no later than the time specified therefore in Paragraph i, Section 2 of
Part I hereof, the Redeveloper shall submit to the City evidence satisfactory to the City that the
Redeveloper has the financial ability to construct the"Minimum Improvements".
Section 304. Commencement and Completion of Construction of "Minimum
Improvements". The Redeveloper agrees for itself, its successors and assigns, and every
successor in interest to the Property, or any part thereof, and each Deed or other conveyance
shall contain covenants on the part of the Redeveloper for itself and such successors and assigns,
that after the first installment of the construction grant provided for in Section 101(b) of this
Agreement has been made by the City, the Redeveloper, and such successors and assigns, shall
promptly begin and diligently prosecute to completion the redevelopment of the Property
through the construction of the "Minimum Improvements" thereon, and that such construction
shall in any event begin within the period specified in Section 3 of Part I hereof and be
completed within the period specified in such Section 3. It is intended and agreed, and each
Deed or other conveyance of the Property or any portion thereof shall so expressly provide, that
the construction of the Minimum Improvements shall be covenants running with the land and
they shall, in any event, and without regard to technical classification or designation, legal or
otherwise, and except only as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement itself, be, to the
fullest extent permitted by law and equity, binding for the benefit of the community and the City
and enforceable by the City against the Redeveloper and its successors and assigns to or of the
Property or any part thereof or any interest therein.
Section 305. Notice of Delays. Until construction of the "Minimum Improvements" has
been completed, the Redeveloper shall give prompt notice in writing to the City of any adverse
development which would materially affect or delay the completion of such construction. Upon
such notification and subject to agreement by the City the completion date will be extended
accordingly.
Section 306. Certificate of Completion.
(a) Promptly after completion of the "Minimum Improvements" in accordance with
those provisions of this Agreement relating solely to the obligations of the
Redeveloper to construct the "Minimum Improvements" (including the dates for
beginning and completion thereof), the City will furnish the Redeveloper with an
13
appropriate instrument so certifying. Such certification by the City shall be a
conclusive determination of satisfaction and termination of the agreements and
covenants in this Agreement and in the Deed with respect to the obligations of the
Redeveloper, and its successors and assigns, to construct the "Minimum
Improvements" and the dates for the beginning and completion thereof. Such
certification and such determination shall not constitute evidence of compliance
with or satisfaction of any obligation of the Redeveloper to any holder of a
mortgage, or any insurer of a mortgage, securing money loaned to finance the
"Minimum Improvements", or any part thereof.
(b) The certification provided for in this Section 306 shall be in such form as will
enable it to be recorded in the proper office for the recordation of deeds and other
instruments pertaining to the Property. If the City shall refuse or fail to provide
any certification in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the City shall,
within thirty (30) calendar days after written request by the Redeveloper, provide
the Redeveloper with a written statement indicating in adequate detail in what
respects the Redeveloper has failed to complete the "Minimum Improvements" in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or is otherwise in default, and
what measures or acts will be necessary, in the opinion of the City, for the
Redeveloper to take or perform in order to obtain such certification.
ARTICLE IV. RESTRICTIONS UPON USE OF PROPERTY

Section 402. Covenants; Binding Upon Successors in Interest; Period of Duration. It is
intended and agreed, and each deed or other conveyance shall so expressly provide, that the
agreements and covenants provided in Section 401 hereof shall be covenants running with the
land and that they shall, in any event, and without regard to technical classification or
designation, legal or otherwise, and except only as otherwise specifically provided in this
Agreement, be binding, to the fullest extent permitted by law and equity, for the benefit and in
favor of, and enforceable by, the City, its successors and assigns, and any successor in interest to
the Property, or any part thereof, against the Redeveloper, its successors and assigns, and any
14
party in possession or occupancy of the Property or any part thereof. It is further intended and
agreed that the agreements and covenants provided in subdivision (a) and (b) of Section 401
hereof shall remain in effect until April 1, 2035. Provided, that such agreements and covenants
shall be binding on the Redeveloper itself, each successor in interest to the Property, and every
part thereof, and each party in possession or occupancy, respectively, only for such period as
such successor or party shall have title to, or an interest in, or possession or occupancy of the
Property or any part thereof. The terms "uses specified in the Urban Renewal Plan" and "land
use" referring to the provisions of the Urban Renewal Plan, or similar language, in this
Agreement shall include the land and all building, housing, and other requirements or restrictions
of the Urban Renewal Plan pertaining to such land.
Section 403. City Rights To Enforce. In amplification, and not in restriction, of the
provisions of the preceding Section, it is intended and agreed that the City and its successors and
assigns shall be deemed beneficiaries of the agreements and covenants provided in Section 401
hereof, both for and in its own right and also for the purposes of protecting the interests of the
community and other parties, public or private, in whose favor or for whose benefit such
agreements and covenants have been provided. Such agreements and covenants shall (and each
Deed shall so state) run in favor of the City, until April 1, 2035, during which time such
agreements and covenants shall be in force and effect, without regard to whether the City has at
any time been, remains, or is an owner of any land or interest therein to or in favor of which such
agreements and covenants relate. The City shall have the right in the event of any breach of any
such agreement or covenant to exercise all the rights and remedies, and to maintain any actions
or suits at law or in equity or other proper proceedings to enforce the curing of such breach of
agreement or covenant, to which it or any other beneficiaries of such agreement or covenant may
be entitled, and shall be entitled to recover, in addition to its court costs, a reasonable attorney's
fee to be fixed by the court, and such recovery shall include court costs and attorney's fees on
appeal, if any.
ARTICLE V. PROHIBITIONS AGAINST ASSIGNMENT,TRANSFER
Section 501. Representation as to Redevelopment. The Redeveloper represents and
agrees that its undertakings pursuant to this Agreement are and will be used for the purpose of
redevelopment of the Property and not for speculation in land holding. The Redeveloper further
recognizes:
(a) the importance of the redevelopment of the Property to the general welfare of the
community;
(b) the substantial financing and other public aids that have been made available by
law and by the City for the purpose of making such redevelopment possible; and
(c) the fact that any act or transaction involving or resulting in a significant change in
the ownership or with respect to the identity of the parties in control of the
Redeveloper or the degree thereof, is for practical purposes a transfer or
disposition of the Property then owned by the Redeveloper, and that the
qualifications and identity of the Redeveloper are of particular concern to the
community and the City. The Redeveloper recognizes that it is because of such
15
qualifications and identity that the City is entering into this Agreement with the
Redeveloper.
Section 502. Prohibition Against Transfer of Property and Assignment of Agreement.
For the foregoing reasons the Redeveloper represents and agrees for itself, and its successors and
assigns,that:
(a) the Redeveloper has not made or created, and that it will not, before completion of
the Minimum Improvements and receipt of a Certificate of Completion pursuant
to Section 306, make or create, or suffer to be made or created, any total or partial
sale, assignment, conveyance, or lease, or any trust or power, or transfer in any
other mode or form of or with respect to this Agreement or the Property, or any
part thereof or any interest therein, or any contract or agreement to do any of the
same, without the prior written approval of the City.
(b) Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in subparagraph (a) of this Section 502,
the Redeveloper may:
1. make such transfer or assignment only by way of security only for the purpose
of obtaining financing necessary to enable the Redeveloper or and successor
in interest to the Property, or any part thereof, to perform its obligations with
respect to constructing the "Minimum Improvements"under this Agreement;
2. sell or lease commercial condominium units in the Project at any time subject
to the terms of the Minimum Assessment Agreement.
(c) The City shall be entitled to require, except for such transfers, assignments,
leases, conveyances or sales provided for in subsection (b) of Section 502, as
conditions to any such approval that:
1. Any proposed transferee shall have the qualifications and financial
responsibility, as determined by the City, necessary and adequate to fulfill
the obligations undertaken in this Agreement by the Redeveloper (or, in
the event the transfer is of or relates to part of the Property, such
obligations that relate to such part).
2. Any proposed transferee shall expressly assume, by instrument in writing
satisfactory to the City and in form recordable among the land records, for
itself, its successors and assigns, and expressly for the benefit of the City,
all of the obligations of the Redeveloper under this Agreement and agree
to be subject to all the conditions and restrictions to which the
Redeveloper is subject (or, in the event the transfer is of or relates to part
of the Property, such obligations, conditions, and restrictions that relate to
such part), Provided that in the event any transferee or successor in
interest to the Property, or any part thereof, does not, for whatever reason,
expressly assume or agree to such obligations, conditions and restrictions,
16
such lack of assumption or agreement shall not relieve or except such
transferee or successor of such obligations, conditions, or restrictions; nor
shall it deprive or limit the City of any rights, remedies or controls with
respect to the Property or the construction of the "Minimum
Improvements" unless and only to the extent otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement or agreed to in writing by the City. It being the
intent that, to the fullest extent permitted by law and equity and excepting
only in the manner and to the extent specifically provided otherwise in this
Agreement, no transfer of or change of ownership in the Property, any part
thereof, or any interest therein, however consummated or occurring, and
whether voluntary or involuntary, shall operate, legally or practically, to
deprive or limit the City of or with respect to any rights, remedies or
controls provided in or resulting from this Agreement that the City would
have had, had there been no such transfer or change.
3. There shall be submitted to the City for review all instruments and other
legal documents involved in effecting transfer; and if approved by the
City, its approval shall be indicated to the Redeveloper in writing.
4. The consideration payable for the transfer by the transferee or on its behalf
shall not exceed an amount representing the actual cost(including carrying
charges) to the Redeveloper of the Property (or allocable to the part
thereof or interest therein transferred) and the "Minimum Improvements",
if any, theretofore made thereon by it; it being the intent of this provision
to preclude assignment of this Agreement or transfer of the Property (or
any parts thereof) for profit prior to the completion of the "Minimum
Improvements".
5. The Redeveloper and its transferee or successor shall comply with such
other conditions as the City may find desirable in order to achieve and
safeguard the purposes of the Urban Renewal Act and the Urban Renewal
Plan.
Provided, That in the absence of a specific written agreement by the City to the contrary,
no such transfer or approval by the City thereof shall be deemed to relieve the Redeveloper, or
any other party bound in any way by this Agreement or otherwise, of its obligations with respect
to the construction of the "Minimum Improvements", or from any of its other obligations under
this Agreement.
Section 503. Information as to Parties in Control. In order to assist in the effectuation
of the purposes of this Article V and the statutory objectives generally, the Redeveloper agrees
that during the period between execution of this Agreement and completion of the "Minimum
Improvements" as certified by the City, the Redeveloper will promptly notify the City of any and
all changes whatsoever with respect to the identity of the parties in control of the Redeveloper or,
the degree thereof, of which it or any of its officers or members have been notified or otherwise
have knowledge or information.
17
Section 504. Status of Redeveloper; Transfer of Substantially All Assets.
As security for the obligations of the Redeveloper under this Agreement, the Redeveloper
represents and agrees that prior to April 1, 2035, the Redeveloper will maintain its existence as a
limited liability company and will not wind up or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of
its assets or assign its interest in this Agreement to any other party; provided that the
Redeveloper may sell or otherwise transfer to a partnership, corporation or limited liability
company organized under the laws of one of the United States, or an individual, all or
substantially all of its assets as an entirety or assign its interest in this Agreement to any other
party and thereafter wind up and be discharged from liability hereunder if (i) the transferee
partnership, corporation, limited liability company or individual assumes in writing all of the
obligations of the Redeveloper under this Agreement and the Minimum Assessment Agreement;
and (ii)the City receives such new security from the successor Redeveloper to assure completion
and operation of the "Minimum Improvements" during the term of this Agreement as the City
deems necessary or desirable and receives such evidence as the City shall reasonably require,
including an opinion of counsel, that the existing performance and payment bonds and security
provided pursuant to this Agreement will remain in effect and will be enforceable against the
existing Redeveloper and issuer of such bonds upon a default by the successor Redeveloper with
respect to completion or operation of the "Minimum Improvements". In addition,
notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Redeveloper has received a
Certificate of Completion of the Minimum Improvements pursuant to Section 306 hereof and has
sold its entire interest in the Redevelopment Property to other persons or entities, it may wind up
and cease to exist if the transferee(s) have assumed, in writing, the obligations of the
Redeveloper under the Minimum Assessment Agreement, including the obligation to make a
contractual payment covering the shortfall in the event that the property tax revenue generated is
insufficient to make any loan payment by execution of that certain Assumption Agreement, a
copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit"I.
ARTICLE VI. MORTGAGE FINANCING; RIGHTS OF MORTGAGEES
Section 601. Limitation Upon Encumbrance of Property. Prior to the completion of the
"Minimum Improvements", as certified by the City, neither the Redeveloper nor any successor in
interest to the Property or any part thereof shall engage in any financing or any other transaction
creating any mortgage, encumbrance or lien upon the Property, whether by express agreement or
operation of law, or suffer any encumbrance or lien to be made on or attach to the Property,
except for the purposes of obtaining funds only to the extent necessary for making the
"Minimum Improvements", including but not limited to engineering, development, legal and
related Project costs (including costs of interior improvements, furnishings and fixtures. The
Redeveloper (or successor in interest) shall notify the City in advance of any financing, secured
by mortgage or other similar lien instrument, it proposes to enter into with respect to the
Property, or any part thereof, and in any event it shall promptly notify the City of any
encumbrance or lien that has been created on or attached to the Property, whether by voluntary
act of the Redeveloper or otherwise. Nothing herein is intended to, and should not be construed
to, in any way limit Redeveloper from selling condominium units in the Project at any time or
limit purchasers from placing mortgages on the condominium units subject to the terms of this
Agreement and the Minimum Assessment Agreement.
18
Section 602. Mortgage Holder Not Obligated To Construct. Notwithstanding any of the
provisions of this Agreement, the holder of any mortgage authorized by this Agreement
(including any such holder who obtains title to the Property or any part thereof as a result of
foreclosure proceedings, or action in lieu thereof, but not including (a) any other party who
thereafter obtains title to the Property or such part from or through such holder or (b) any other
purchaser at foreclosure sale other than the holder of the mortgage itself) shall not be obligated
by the provisions of this Agreement to construct or complete the "Minimum Improvements" or
to guarantee such construction or completion; nor shall any covenant or any other provision in
the Deed be construed to so obligate such holder Provided, That nothing in this Section or any
other Section or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to permit or authorize
any such holder to devote the Property or any part thereof to any uses, or to construct any
"Minimum Improvements" thereon, other than those uses or improvements provided or
permitted in the Urban Renewal Plan and in this Agreement.
Section 603. Copy of Notice of Default to Mortgagee. Whenever the City shall deliver
any notice or demand to the Redeveloper with respect to any breach or default by the
Redeveloper in its obligations or covenants under this Agreement, the City shall at the same time
forward a copy of such notice or demand to each known holder of any mortgage authorized by
this Agreement at the last address of such holder shown in the records of the City.
Section 604. Mortgagee's Option To Cure Defaults. After any breach or default referred
to in Section 603 hereof, each such holder shall (insofar as the rights of the City are concerned)
have the right, at its option, to cure or remedy such breach or default(or such breach or default to
the extent that it relates to the part of the Property covered by its mortgage) and to add the cost
thereof to the mortgage debt and the lien of its mortgage Provided, That if the breach or default
is with respect to construction of the "Minimum Improvements", nothing contained in this
Section or any other Section of this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or authorize such
holder, either before or after foreclosure or action in lieu thereof, to undertake or continue the
construction or completion of the "Minimum Improvements" (beyond the extent necessary to
conserve or protect "Minimum Improvements" or construction already made) without first
having expressly assumed the obligation to the City, by written agreement satisfactory to the
City, to complete, in the manner provided in this Agreement, the "Minimum Improvements" on
the Property or the part thereof to which the lien or title of such holder relates. Any such holder
who shall properly complete the "Minimum Improvements"relating to the Property or applicable
part thereof shall be entitled, upon written request made to the City, to a certification or
certifications by the City to such effect in the manner provided in Section 306 of this Agreement.

default or breach of this Agreement by the Redeveloper or successor in interest, in any case
where the holder of any mortgage on the Property or part thereof:
(a) has, but does not exercise, the option to construct or complete the "Minimum
Improvements" to the Property or part thereof covered by its mortgage or to
which it has obtained title, and such failure continues for a period of sixty (60)
days after the holder has been notified or informed of the default or breach; or
19
(b) exercises the option to construct or complete the "Minimum Improvements" but
does not complete such "Minimum Improvements" within the period agreed upon
by the City and such holder (which period shall in any event be at least as long as
the period prescribed for such completion in this Agreement), and such default
shall not have been cured within sixty (60) days after written demand by the City
so to do,
the City shall:
(a) have the option to pay to the holder the amount of the mortgage debt and securing
an assignment of the mortgage and the debt secured thereby; or
(b) in the event ownership of the Property (or part thereof) has vested in such holder
by way of foreclosure or action in lieu thereof, the City shall be entitled, at its
option, to receive conveyance of title to the Property or part thereof(as the case
may be)upon payment to such holder of an amount equal to the sum total of:
(i) the mortgage debt at the time of foreclosure or action in lieu thereof(less all
appropriate credits, including those resulting from collection and application
of rentals and other income received during foreclosure proceedings);
(ii) all expenses with respect to the foreclosure;
(iii) the net expense, if any (exclusive of general overhead), incurred by such
holder in and as a direct result of the subsequent management of the
Property;
(iv) the costs of any"Minimum Improvements" made by such holder; and
(v) an amount equivalent to the interest that would have accrued on the
aggregate of such amounts had all such amounts become part of the
mortgage debt and such debt had continued in existence.
Every mortgage instrument made prior to completion of the "Minimum Improvements" with
respect to the Property or any part thereof shall so provide.
Section 606. City's Option To Cure Mortgage Default. In the event the Redeveloper, or
any successor in interest defaults or breaches its obligations under, and to the holder of, any
mortgage or other instrument creating an encumbrance or lien upon the Property or part thereof
prior to the completion of the "Minimum Improvements", the City may, at its option, cure such
default or breach, in which case the City shall be entitled, to reimbursement from the
Redeveloper or successor in interest of all costs and expenses incurred by the City including
reasonable attorney's fees in curing such default or breach and to a lien upon the Property (or the
part thereof to which the mortgage, encumbrance, or lien relates) for such reimbursement, in
addition to and without limitation upon any other rights or remedies to which it shall be entitled
by this Agreement, operation of law, or otherwise: Provided, That any such lien shall be subject
always to the lien of(and any lien contemplated by, because of advances yet to be made,) any
then-existing mortgages on the Property authorized by this Agreement.
Section 607. Mortgage and Holder. For the purposes of this Agreement: The term
"mortgage" shall include a deed of trust or other instrument creating an encumbrance or lien
20
upon the Property, or any part thereof, as security for a loan. The term "holder" in reference to a
mortgage shall include a deed of trust.
Section 608. Subordination and Modification for the Benefit of Mortgagees.
(a) In order to facilitate obtaining financing for the construction of the "Minimum
Improvements" by the Redeveloper, the City agrees to subordinate its rights under this
Agreement and under its mortgage referenced in Section 1.01(c) to the holder of the First
Mortgage for the purposes described in Section 601(a) of this Agreement, but only provided that
the First Mortgage or a subordination agreement provides that if the holder of the First Mortgage
shall foreclose on the Redevelopment Property, the improvements thereon, or any portion
thereof, or accept a deed to the Redevelopment Property in lieu of foreclosure, it shall consent to
the Assessor's Minimum Actual Value set forth in the Minimum Assessment Agreement and all
the provisions of the Minimum Assessment Agreement.
(b) In order to facilitate obtaining financing for the construction of the "Minimum
Improvements", the City agrees that it shall agree to any reasonable modification of this Article
VI or waiver of its rights hereunder to accommodate the interests of the holder of the First
Mortgage, provided, however, that the City determines, in its reasonable judgment, that any such
modification(s) will adequately protect the legitimate interests and security of the City with
respect to the Project and the Urban Renewal Plan. The City also agrees to consider such
modification(s) of this Article VI with respect to other holders, and to agree to such
modifications if the City deems such modification(s)necessary and reasonable.
ARTICLE VII. REMEDIES
Section 701. In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in the event of
any default or breach of this Agreement, or any of its terms or conditions, by either party herein,
or any successor to such party, such party (or successor) shall, upon written notice from the
other, proceed immediately to commence to cure or remedy such default or breach and shall
complete such cure or remedy within ninety (90) days after receipt of such notice. In case such
action is not taken or diligently pursued, or the default or breach cannot be cured or remedied
within a reasonable time, the aggrieved party may institute such proceedings as may be
necessary or desirable in its opinion to cure and remedy such default or breach, including, but not
limited to, proceedings to compel specific performance by the party in default or breach of its
obligations and any other rights and remedies provided by law.
Section 702. Other Rights and Remedies of City; No Waiver by Delay. The City shall
have the right to institute such actions or proceedings as may be necessary to enforce the
Redeveloper's covenants and obligations under this Agreement and to seek damages caused by a
breach or default by the Redeveloper. The City may also institute such actions or proceedings it
may deem desirable for effectuating the purposes of this Article VII, provided that any delay by
the City in instituting or prosecuting any such actions or proceedings or otherwise asserting its
rights under this Article VII shall not operate as a waiver of such rights or to deprive it of or limit
such rights in any way (it being the intent of this provision that the City should not be
constrained (so as to avoid the risk of being deprived of or limited in the exercise of the remedy
provided in this Section because of concepts of waiver, laches, or otherwise) to exercise such
21
remedy at a time when it may still hope otherwise to resolve the problems created by the default
involved); nor shall any waiver in fact made by the City with respect to any specific default by
the Redeveloper under this Section be considered or treated as a waiver of the City's rights with
respect to any other defaults by the Redeveloper under this Section or with respect to the

troubles, unusually severe or prolonged bad weather, acts of God, fire or other casualty to the
"Minimum Improvements", litigation commenced by third parties, or acts of any federal, State or

this Agreement, whether provided by law or by this Agreement, shall be cumulative, and the
exercise by either party of any one or more of such remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it,
at the same or different times, of any other such remedies for the same default or breach or of
any of its remedies for any other default or breach by the other party. No waiver made by either
such party with respect to the performance, or manner or time thereof, or any obligation of the
other party or any condition to its obligations under this Agreement shall be considered a waiver
of any rights of the party making the waiver with respect to the particular obligation of the other
party or condition to its own obligation beyond those expressly waived in writing and to the
extent thereof, or a waiver in any respect in regard to any other rights of the party making the
waiver or any other obligations of the other party.

RE:Towncrest Redevelopment Project
Dear Jeff,
MDK Development, L.L.C.,whose main principals are Mike Hodge,Dave Hodge,and Kevin Digmann,are
requesting the City's financial assistance for a new 14,850 square foot medical/office building with 80
parking spaces in the Towncrest area. We currently have under contract 102 Williams St.(ACT Building)
and 2611 Muscatine Ave. (Sinclair gas station). Our plan is to demolish the existing buildings and site.
The contractor for the project will be Hodge Construction and Architect will be Neumann Monson. The
building will be completed as a commercial condominium and the spaces may be sold to end users. The
total project cost is estimated at approximately$5,000,000. Since this project is a redevelopment of
two properties into a green field,we are seeking City assistance of$950,000 for pre-development
expenses and to reduce the acquisition and demolition cost to a comparable commercial lot in the Iowa
City area. The current assessed value of existing sites combined is$876,950. Enclosed you will find:
1. Building Elevation
2. Site Plan
3. Summary of Land cost and Comparable other sites
4. Cost estimate for the Project
5. Preliminary Construction Schedule
6. Commitment Letter from Hills Bank
This project would be a great start to the City's overall plan for redevelopment of the Towncrest area. If
approved,we would begin construction this fall with occupancy fall 2013. If you have any questions
please call me at 631-0548 or email kdigmann@yhoo.com.

RE: Hodge Construction Company
711 S Gilbert St
Iowa City IA 52240
After reviewing financial information and the proposed plans for construction in the Towncrest area of
Iowa City, Hills Bank is pleased to provide a commitment of financing to Hodge Construction Company
and or related entities for construction purposes. Loans to the company would not exceed 80%of the
appraised value of the facilities upon completion. A construction loan will be secured by a first
mortgage on the property and will also require personal guarantees. At the present time,the loan
would bear an interest rate of 4.5%per annum for one year from closing. The commitment of this rate
will be good for 45 days from the date of this letter.
Upon completion of the project, it is anticipated that any part of the facility that is retained by the
company will then be amortized over a period not to exceed 25 years. The interest rate for permanent
financing will be determined at the time of extension.
If you have any questions or if there is any way that I can be of additional assistance to you, please feel
free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Tim N.Smith

MINIMUM ASSESSMENT AGREEMENT
1020 William St. & 2611 Muscatine Ave.
THIS MINIMUM ASSESSMENT AGREEMENT, dated as of this day of
, 2012, by and among the CITY OF IOWA CITY, IOWA, ("City"),
MDK Development L.L.C., an Iowa limited liability corporation, ("Redeveloper"), and the CITY
ASSESSOR of the City of Iowa City, Iowa("Assessor").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, it is contemplated that the Redeveloper will undertake the development of
an area("Project") within the City and within the "Towncrest Urban Renewal Area"; and
WHEREAS, the City is making a significant grant of funds to the Redeveloper which
will allow the Redeveloper to construct the Project; and
WHEREAS, the City will be reimbursed for such grant from the property tax revenues
generated from the Project; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Iowa Code section 403.6 (2011), as amended, the City and the
Redeveloper desire to establish a minimum actual value for the land locally known as 1020
William St. & 2611 Muscatine Ave. , and legally described in Exhibit E to the Agreement for
Private Redevelopment; and
WHEREAS, the City and the Assessor have reviewed the preliminary plans and
specifications for the"Minimum Improvements"to be erected as a part of the development;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Minimum Assessment Agreement, in
consideration of the promises, covenants and agreements made by each other, do hereby agree as
follows:
1. As of January 1, 2014, a full assessment shall be made fixing the minimum actual taxable
value for assessment purposes for the land and "Minimum Improvements" to be constructed
thereon by the Redeveloper at not less than$2,225,000 after taking into consideration any factors
such as "roll backs" which would reduce the taxable value of the property ("Minimum Actual
Value"). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that construction of the "Minimum
Improvements"will be substantially completed on or before December 31, 2013.
2. The Redeveloper recognizes that the grant to the Redeveloper pursuant to the
Agreement is conditional upon sufficient property taxes being generated by this Project to repay
the General Fund loan to make such grant. The City will need property taxes from the Project in
the amounts and at the times set forth in Schedule Y to this Minimum Assessment Agreement. If
for any reason the property taxes are less than the amount set forth on Schedule Y for any fiscal
30
year, the assessor shall increase the assessed value of the Project for the next fiscal year in an
amount to cover such property tax deficiency. If for any reason, the assessor does not so increase
the assessed value, Redeveloper shall make a payment to the City in the amount of the difference
between the property tax revenue and the cost of the loan payment.
3. The Redeveloper contemplates that the Project will consist of three condominium
units. The Redeveloper agrees that at the time of the execution of the declaration required by
Chapter 499B Horizontal Property (Condominiums) of the Code of Iowa 2011, an attachment to
the declaration will be executed by the Redeveloper, the City and the City Assessor allocating a
portion of the Minimum Actual Value to each unit.
4. The Minimum Actual Value (as adjusted pursuant to paragraph 2 hereof) herein
established shall be of no further force and effect and this Minimum Assessment Agreement
shall terminate on April 1, 2035 when the final installment on the General Fund loan is made, or
when the loan is paid in full, whichever is earlier.
Nothing herein shall be deemed to waive the Redeveloper's rights under Iowa Code
section 403.6(19) (2011), as amended, to contest that portion of any actual value assignment
made by the Assessor in excess of the Minimum Actual Value (as adjusted pursuant to paragraph
2 hereof) established herein. In no event, however, except as set forth in the first paragraph of
this Section 4 shall the Redeveloper seek to reduce the actual value assigned below the Minimum
Actual Value (as adjusted pursuant to paragraph 2 hereof) established herein during the term of
this Agreement.
5. This Minimum Assessment Agreement shall be promptly recorded by the
Redeveloper with the Recorder of Johnson County, Iowa. The Redeveloper shall pay all costs of
recording.
6. Redeveloper has provided a title opinion to the City listing all lienholders of
record as of the date of this Assessment Agreement and all such lienholders have signed consents
to this Assessment Agreement, which consents are attached hereto and made a part hereof.
7. Neither the preambles nor provisions of this Minimum Assessment Agreement are
intended to, or shall be construed as, modifying the terms of the Agreement for Private
Redevelopment between the City and Redeveloper.
8. This Minimum Assessment Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the successors and assigns of the parties.

appears reasonable, hereby certifies as follows: The undersigned Assessor, being legally
responsible for the assessment of the property subject to the development, upon completion of
"Minimum Improvements" to be made on it and in accordance with the Minimum Assessment
Agreement, certifies that the actual value assigned to such land, building and equipment upon
completion of the redevelopment shall not be less than $2,225,000 after taking into consideration
any factors such as "roll-backs" which would reduce the taxable value of the property. Of this
amount, four hundred thousand Dollars ($400,000) is determined to be the value of the land and
one million eight hundred twenty-five thousand Dollars ($1,825,000) the value of the building

Re: Request for Financial Assistance for the Redevelopment of Towncrest Properties
Introduction:
The City received a request for financial assistance from MDK Development, LLC for a
redevelopment project located at 1020 William St. and 2611 Muscatine Ave. The proposal is
for a one -story medical office building with 14,850 square feet. The developer is requesting
$950,000 in financial assistance for the project. The Developer's Agreement is attached for
your review and approval.
History /Background:
The site is within the Towncrest Urban Renewal area and is currently the location of the Sinclair
Gas Station and a building owned by ACT used primarily for storage. The proposed building will
provide retail /medical office space for three building occupants with 6,605, 5,000 and 3,244
square feet respectively. The estimated project cost is $5,070,000 and includes the cost of land
and business acquisition, site remediation of underground storage tanks, demolition of existing
buildings and the construction of a new medical office facility.
Discussion of Solutions:
The proposed project will increase the assessed valuation of the property from its current
$885,800 to $2,225,000, the Minimum Required Assessment under the Redevelopment
Agreement. The proposed redevelopment meets the City's Economic Development objectives:
increases the taxable valuation of the property, retains /creates jobs which have wages and
benefits higher than the County median, redevelops a blighted property and is a desirable
project within the Towncrest Urban Renewal Area. The Developer requests $950,000 in
financial assistance to enable the project to proceed.
Financial Impact:
$325,000 of the $950,000 requested will come from the Towncrest Capital Improvement Plan
Catalyst. The remainder, $625,000, will be in the form of Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
provided to the developer as the project proceeds and final payment upon completion and sale
or lease of the three condominiums. The City will finance the TIF portion through a 20 -year loan
from the General Fund at 3.25% interest.
Recommendation:
The City Council Economic Development Committee reviewed this request at their June 12,
2012 meeting. The committee recommended approval of this proposal on a 3 -0 vote. The
redevelopment agreement, developer's proposal, staff memo and financial analysis completed
by the National Development Council are attached for your review. Staff recommends approval
of the redevelopment agreement at your June 19, 2012 City Council meeting.

MEMORANDUM
Date: June 8, 2012
To: City Council Economic Development Committee
From: Wendy Ford, Economic Development Coordinator kf_7K
Tracy Hightshoe, Community Development Planner
Re: Request for financial assistance for redevelopment of Towncrest properties:
1020 William Street and 2611 Muscatine Avenue
We have received a request for financial assistance from Kevin Digmann, manager of MDK
Development, LLC, for a redevelopment project located at 1020 William Street and 2611
Muscatine Avenue in the Towncrest Urban Renewal Area in Iowa City. This is the current
location of Sinclair Gas Station and a building directly to the south, owned and used mostly for
storage by ACT. The proposal is for a one -story medical office building with 14,850 square feet.
The proposed building, shown in the following materials will provide retail /medical office space
for three building occupants with 6,605, 5,000 and 3,244 square feet, respectively.
The estimated project cost is $5,070,000 and includes the cost of land and business acquisition,
site remediation of underground storage tanks and the demolition of existing buildings on the
site and construction. The project would increase the assessed valuation of the property from its
current $885,880 to an estimated $2,127,240. The current property taxes paid annually on the
property are $36,102. The total anticipated property tax with the completed project is $86,693
annually, and is estimated to increase approximately 2% every other year thereafter.
The owner will be providing the required parking spaces for the medical office users and will
accommodate that requirement with a total of 58 parking spaces on site, next to, or behind the
building. In addition, the owner will be dedicating right of way on William Street in order to create
an additional 22 on street spaces perpendicular to the building (see site plan attached).
The developer is formally requesting $950,000 in financial assistance for the project. In 2011,
the City Council created a set of financial programs to assist projects in the Towncrest Urban
Renewal Area (URA) (resolution #11 -264). Because this is among the first significant private
projects in the Towncrest URA, several financing tools are available:
Towncrest URA Gap Financing for Catalyst projects $300,000
Towncrest URA Predevelopment Design and Environmental
Assistance (a matching grant, not to exceed) 25,000
Tax Increment Financing
Total
625,000
$950,000
The annual TIF increment generated by the project will be enough to repay the City's bonded
indebtedness within 20 years. The developer has agreed to a minlmum assessment agreement,
which will guarantee the property taxes required to retire the City's indebtedness.
The following analysis examines this proposal against the City Council's economic development
process and policies which were adopted on December 6, 2011.
June 8, 2012
Page 2
Financial analysis
The City of Iowa City economic development process and policies are intended to establish
standard procedures and a framework for granting financial incentives. This is intended to
ensure that the City's financial resources are used as efficiently and effectively as possible. The
focus of the financial incentives policy is achieving community objectives. Following is a
summary of the consistency of the proposed Medical Office Building redevelopment project at
Muscatine Avenue and William Street with the stated community objectives of the economic
development process and policies:
1. Increase taxable valuation of property, especially commercial and industrial. This
Towncrest project will be a one -story medical office building on two parcels of land at
Muscatine Avenue and William Street. The total estimated assessed value of the
property will increase from $885,880 to an estimated $2,127,240.
2. Increase the number of jobs which have wages and fringe benefits exceeding the
county median. This project ensures that the high quality jobs of optometrists and
dentists are retained in the Towncrest area. The investment in the medical office building
will make the area more attractive for further investment by others, including those
already located in Towncrest. One goal of the Towncrest Urban Renewal Plan is to stem
the tide of the medical offices choosing to leave and relocate on the fringes of Iowa City
or in neighboring communities.
3. Redevelopment of blighted property. The two parcels that comprise the project site
are a gas station and a former office building turned storage facility. The Williams Street
property meets the State Code definition of blightedness which states "faulty lot layout in
relation to size, adequacy, accessibility, or usefulness," because the property line
separating it from the next building goes through a shared wall and will require
substantial remediation to correct. The Muscatine Avenue property may fit the definition
because of "insanitary or unsafe conditions; deterioration or other site improvements"
depending on the status of the underground gasoline storage tanks there (State Code
403.17).
4. Desirable projects which might not otherwise occur without financial incentives.
The Towncrest Urban Renewal Plan cites medical office buildings as desirable projects
for the area. Because of the high cost of land and gas station business acquisition,
coupled with site remediation of underground storage tanks and the demolition of
existing buildings on the site, this project would not occur without incentives.
Standard operating procedure for requests for economic development financial
assistance
The request for financial assistance for The Towncrest Medical Office Building has been
through the standard operating procedure Council established for economic development
financial assistance. In terms of Intake and evaluation, we have been involved for months
negotiating project elements with the developer. We have worked with the developer to
maximize the use of the space considering parking needs and user requirements. We have
completed an in -depth financial gap analysis of the project using the services of the National
Development Council, which is summarized in a following attachment.
The due diligence phase of our evaluation is aided by the fact that the applicant is a well -
known Iowa City developer with whom the City has worked on other projects for more than five
years. For this particular project, we encouraged the developer to consider a project in
June 8, 2012
Page 3
Towncrest because we felt they had the expertise, energy and enthusiasm to carry off a
Towncrest Urban Renewal catalyst project.
The development agreement, when presented to the City Council, will include performance
measures that require the developer to complete the building in accordance with the concept
plan proposed. The developer will agree to a minimum assessment agreement and provide
additional securities as stipulated in the development agreement.
Gap analysis and additional evaluation criteria
The developer has been required to produce a gap analysis of why the $950,000 in requested
financial assistance is necessary. The City Council's stated goal is for the City's financial
assistance to be the last dollars in, and that "but for" the City's assistance the project would not
happen. The gap analysis is summarized in the attached report from the National Development
Council.
The City Council established several goal's, objectives, and strategies for TIF projects. The
developer's equity is required to be at least equal or exceed the amount of TIF funds made
available for the project, and this has been achieved on a roughly 20% TIF funds request to
80% developer equity basis.
The requested City funding can be assembled with $300,000 from the Towncrest Gap Financing
for Catalyst Assistance program and $25,000 from the Predevelopment Design and
Environmental Assistance program established in 2011, with the remaining $625,000 from the
sale of bonds to be repaid to the City by Tax Increment Financing. It is a goal but not a
requirement for TIF funding to not exceed more than 50% of the TIF increment created. This
project will require most of the TIF increment created by the project over 15 — 18 years to fund
the TIF portion plus related finance charges to the City, depending on how the taxable
assessment exceeds the minimum assessment in the development agreement.

RE: Towncrest Redevelopment Project
Dearleff,
MDK Development, L.L.C., whose main principals are Mike Hodge, Dave Hodge, and Kevin Digmann, are
requesting the City's financial assistance for a new 14,850 square foot medical /office building with 80
parking spaces in the Towncrest area. We currently have under contract 102 Williams St. (ACT Building)
and 2611 Muscatine Ave. (Sinclair gas station). Our plan is to demolish the existing buildings and site.
The contractor for the project will be Hodge Construction and Architect will be Neumann Monson. The
building will be completed as a commercial condominium and the spaces may be sold to end users. The
total project cost is estimated at approximately $5,000,000. Since this project is a redevelopment of
two properties into a green field, we are seeking City assistance of $950,000 for pre - development
expenses and to reduce the acquisition and demolition cost to a comparable commercial lot in the Iowa
City area. The current assessed value of existing sites combined is $876,950. Enclosed you will find:
1. Building Elevation
2. Site Plan
3. Summary of Land cost and Comparable other sites
4. Cost estimate for the Project
5. Preliminary Construction Schedule
6. Commitment Letter from Hills Bank
This project would be a great start to the City's overall plan for redevelopment of the Towncrest area. If
approved, we would begin construction this fall with occupancy fall 2013. If you have any questions
please call me at 631 -0548 or email kdiemann @yhoo.com.

After reviewing financial information and the proposed plans for construction in the Towncrest area of
Iowa City, Hills Bank is pleased to provide a commitment of financing to Hodge Construction Company
and or related entities for construction purposes. Loans to the company would not exceed 80% of the
appraised value of the facilities upon completion. A construction loan will be secured by a first
mortgage on the property and will also require personal guarantees. At the present time, the loan
would bear an interest rate of 4.5% per annum for one year from closing. The commitment of this rate
will be good for 45 days from the date of this letter.
Upon completion of the project, it is anticipated that any part of the facility that is retained by the
company will then be amortized over a period not to exceed 25 years. The interest rate for permanent
financing will be determined at the time of extension.
If you have any questions or if there is any way that I can be of additional assistance to you, please feel
free to contact me.

RE: Review of Request for Financial Assistance for Towncrest Medical Office Building Development at
Muscatine Avenue and Williams Street
At your request, NDC has reviewed the request for $950,000 in gap financing assistance submitted by MDK
Development LLC /Hodge for the multi -unit, medical office condominium building (the "project ") proposed for
the corner of Muscatine Avenue and Williams Street in the Towncrest redevelopment area. NDC's review
concluded with an analysis of the updated materials submitted by MDK /Hodge and transmitted by City staff on
June 4, 2012. NDC also reviewed several preliminary proposals for the project site and met with Kevin Digman
of MDK /Hodge and City staff on multiple occasions to discuss the project's specifics, including project costs,
financing sources and condo sale scenarios. Follow -up conversations by phone and email were conducted to
secure additional information for our review.
As proposed, the project will purchase, demolish and remediate the parcels of land located at the corner of
Muscatine and Williams that are currently occupied by a Sinclair gas station and a building owned by ACT. A
14,850 medical office building will be constructed on the site at a total project cost of $5,069,344. The
developer expects to sell the building to interested medical practices as three (3) condo units. While executed
sales contracts for the condos and an as- complete appraisal are not yet available, information submitted by
the developer includes evidence of a preliminary financing commitment from Hills Bank for up to 80% of the
as- complete appraised value of the project with an interest rate during construction of 4.25%. MDK /Hodge
has estimated the total bank financing at $3,680,000 and has offered to invest owner equity in the amount of
$440,000. To complete the financing sources in an amount equal to the proposed total project cost, the
developer has requested $950,000 in gap financing assistance from the City.
Given the developer's estimate of total construction financing and the bank's underwriting criterion of an 809'o
maximum loan to value ratio, an as- complete fair market value of $4.6 million has been calculated for the
project. Assuming that the total sales price of the three (3) condominiums would match this value — and given
the proposed owner equity and City assistance amounts proposed by the developer, sources and uses and
associated developer returns are estimated as follows:
Total Project Cost $5,069,344
Sources
Bank $3,680,000
Developer Equity 440,000
City Assistance 950,000
Total Sources $5,070,000

If estimated construction interest, based on the bank's preliminary rate and the developer's proposed
schedule, of approximately $95,000 is added to the expenses, the developer's requested developer fee of
$198,969 is added to the proceeds, and the $656 difference between the developer's sources and uses is
added back into the mix, the net proceeds total (rounded to the closest thousand) comes to $279,000. This
would provide the developer with a profit on the $4.6 million sale price of approximately 6.1% or on total
project costs of approximately 5.4%. Either method provides a measure of the developer's return that is
reasonable.
Conclusion: the project as presented demonstrates a need for gap financing in the requested amount of
$950,000. if final project costs, bank terms, executed sales contracts or appraised values differ substantially
from the numbers outlined above, NDC will update this review as requested by the City.

will be good for 45 days from the d e of this ter.
Upon completion of the project it is anticipated tha any part of the facility that is retained by the
company will then be amorti d over a period not to teed 25 years. The interest rate for permanent
financing will be determine at the time of extension.

MEMORANDUM
Date: June 14, 2012
To: Tom Markus, City Manager
From: Marcia Bollinger, Neighborhood Services Coordinator
Re: FY2013 Program for Improving Neighborhood (PIN) Grant Recommendations
Introduction: The Neighborhood Council of Iowa City (NCIC) has recently reviewed the FY2013 grant
applications presented by various neighborhood associations for funding through the Program for
Improving Neighborhoods (PIN) Grant program. This is the seventeenth year the City has made funding
available to neighborhood associations to make improvements in their neighborhoods. This year,
$15,000 was appropriated for funding the Program for Improving Neighborhoods.
History/Background: The Neighborhood Council developed the program guidelines, the ranking
criteria, and process for evaluating the applications when the program began in 1995. They revisited
these program details in 2002 and clarified the use of PIN funds on private property, for school district
playgrounds and for programs that are extensions of existing City services such a spring brush cleanup
and couch disposal. They reviewed the ranking criteria again in 2008 and made some minor changes.
Discussion of Solution: This year, ten grant applications from eight neighborhood associations totaling
$15,077.41 were reviewed. The Neighborhood Council reviewed the applications, clarified details and
negotiated funding levels. The following is a list of all grant requests, the amount initially requested
and the amount being recommended for funding.
Attached are the applications that have been recommended for funding. The neighborhood
association's representatives will provide a brief presentation of the recommended 2013 Program for
Improving Neighborhoods (PIN) Grants at your June 19 meeting.
Recommendation: A resolution approving this recommendation and authorizing expenditure of these
funds will be considered at the June 19, 2012 City Council meeting. The Neighborhood Council
recommends that the City Council approve this recommendation for the FY13 Program for Improving
Neighborhood grants.

A. Briefly describe the activities (meetings, newsletters, events, participation in the Neighborhood Council,
etc.) of the neighborhood association over the past 12 months.
See attached item "A" for details.
B. Describe the project; why is it needed and what are its goals
This is our third season requesting funding so we can continue our collaborative effort with the Grant
Wood Elementary PTO. These funds assist the PTO in providing a simple supper and childcare during
monthly PTO mtgs. This funds have helped increase parent participation at PTO meetings. We believe
this is another way for us to reach out to neighborhood residents, especially those who may have limited
resources. We view funding that helps provide simple suppers and childcare for PTO meeting benefiting
our neighborhood school as well as our neighborhood. See attached letter of support from Michelle
Eckland, Grant Wood PTO Treasurer
C. General List and Description of Activities with estimated time line:(please indicate if this project will or
could be phased over a number of years)
Monthly PTO meetings are held on the third Monday of each month. The number of meetings is 8 -10
during the school year. Meals include a simple entree, fresh fruit or vegetable and a light dessert . This
food is purchased by the PTO and brought to the school. Generally, two child care provider are
needed and are hired by the PTO board members. The number of parents attending the meetings
varies. An average of 15 -20 parents attend, several with small children. The Grant Wood Neighborhood
Association helps promote the Family Dinners through their newsletter.

Yes. Grant Wood school has a -60% minority population and -65% live in poverty.
Some of the famlies have limited resources to provide day care or a simple healthy meal to their
families so they can be involved in a volunteer organization.
G. Could the project occur without PIN funding?
PTO meetings would continue but the ability to provide a simple meal to participants would not be
possible.
H. Could the project operate with less funding?
Fewer meals could be offered, but the goal of the project is to provide a simple meal at each meeting
which amounts to 8 -9 meetings during the school year.

PTO
The Grant Wood Neighborhood Association provides our Grant Wood PTO with the support it
needs to bring parents and volunteers to the PTO meetings. The meals and childcare make it
possible for parents to commit to these meetings to support our students and school. If we were
not able to have this provided, there may be those parents who could not make it to meetings due
to meal times or no childcare.
The PTO appreciates all the Grant Wood Neighborhood Association brings to help our school be
accessible to its students, staff and parents. We would like to continue providing meals and
childcare at our meetings to keep our parents involved.
Thank you,
Grant Wood PTO

B. Describe the project; why is it needed and what are its goals.
Two years ago with the help of Eco Iowa City and the City of Iowa City, GWNA started a community
garden in Fair Meadows Park to familiarize individuals in the neighborhood with fruits and vegetables
and how they can be easily and inexpensively grown. This year the garden will expand it services to
the neighborhood by joining with the Farm to School program, Master Gardeners, and 4 -H to allow
the neighborhood garden to also serve as a school garden for Grant Wood Elementary. This grant
would allow us to further expand the garden to grow a greater variety of fruits and vegetables. It
would also create trellises to improve the vertical space for growing cucurbits, completion of the
center of the garden with a sunflower house, tools, requiring fencing and seed. This will allow
individuals to easily see the plants and vegetables and their growth patterns further familiarizing
individuals with health food options..
C. General List and Description of Activities with estimated time line: (please indicate if this project will or

The Grant Wood Roller Skating Parties have become a very popular event every Friday night since the
Grant Wood Neighborhood Association secured funding for roller skates and staffing. Typical roller
skating events attract over 100 people. It has become apparent that some sizes of skates are used
more frequently than others - 4, 5 and 6 and many young people must wait their turn to use the skates.
This grant request would purchase 5 pairs of each size skate ($50 each for size 4 and $65 each for
sizes 5 and 6) All skates previously purchased have been ordered through Scheels as they have
provided most reasonable prices, great customer service and free delivery. The Parks and Recreation
staff will continue to staff the roller skating events, oversee maintenance of the skates and make repairs
as necessary. The Grant Wood Neighborhood Associaiton will continue to promote the events in their
newsletter, email list and website.

B. Describe the project; why is it needed and what are its goals.
The Grant Wood Neighborhood, through grants received both by the Program for Improving
Neighborhoods, United Way and assistance through the IC Recreation Department, have purchased
78 pairs of roller skates that fit both adults and children that are stored in a closet adjacent to the Grant
Wood gym. The gym facility, a coordinated effort between the Iowa City Community School district,
Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County and the City of Iowa City was constructed to not only
expand operations of Grant Wood school but to operate as a "community center"— offering activities
and use of the gym for a variety of activities in the evening and on weekends. The Grant Wood
Neighborhood Association utilized PIN grant funding last year to provide staffing for Friday night skate
parties and purchase additional roller skates which have proven to be VERY popular for school
children and adult alike. Typical Friday night skating events will see over 100 people participate.
These funds will provide funding for 2 -3 staff people to be available each Friday evening (2 Y2-31/2
hours each) for 9 months (during the school year). The Iowa City Recreation Division will contribute to
the project by hiring appropriate staff and administering supervision. The Grant Wood neighborhood
association works with the Grant Wood School administration to promote these activities to the school
children as well as include the information in the neighborhood newsletters and press releases to the
various media resources.
C. General List and Description of Activities with estimated time line: (please indicate if this project will or

Roller skating parties would begin in August 2012, held every Friday through June, 2013 to coincide
with the school year. Each roller skating party would last for 2 1/2 hours.

along with them and help them. It is an activity that elderly can take part in by either coming to skate
or by bringing their grandchildren /neighbor /friends children to or just come to watch. Our
neighborhood is in Census Tract 18 which has an average of 56.4% low to moderate income
families. The number of children who receive free and reduced lunch at Grant Wood School was
64.4% in 2009/10 school year.

B. Describe the project; why is it needed and what are its goals.
This project will provide the opportunity for residents of the Grant Wood, Wetherby and Pepperwood
neighborhoods to have the curb in front of their homes and adjacent to their mail boxes painted with
their house numbers - free of charge. This service will be provided by students involved in the
FasTrac program through the Mayors Youth Empowerment Program. (See attached letter from Henri
Harper). The curb numbering also makes it easier to locate properties along a street as all house
numbers are in a consistent location. A "logo" is also being developed that will included as part of the
numbering that will lend further identity to the neighborhood — tying the project as well as the
neighborhood together. Paint used for this project will be formulated specifically for use on concrete
and is expected to remain readable for 10 years or more. There is an estimated 1800 properties in
the Grant Wood, Wetherby and Pepperwood neighborhoods.
The social interaction that will occur between the FasTrac students and the residents of the
neighborhood is the more "valuable" component of this project. It is important to Henri Harper to see
youth interact positively with their neighbors which might then develop into continued positive
interaction.

Re: Curb Painting Project with FasTrac students
Dear Neighborhood Council of Iowa City:
I am writing to explain the role that the FasTrac students and I will have in the Curb
Painting Project seeking to funded through the Program for Improving Neighborhoods
by the Grant Wood Neighborhood Association.
There are currently over 50students participating in the FasTrac program that are in the
7th through 12th grade age group. This is the age group that we find to be challenging in
finding activities that will provide them with some valuable experience as well as help
them become better students, workers and neighbors.
We want to utilize this curb painting project for the FasTrac students to provide a
service to the neighborhood residents and an opportunity to learn a new skill — but
more importantly to use this process as an opportunity for them to get to know their
neighbors by the interactions that will occur as part of this program. I feel strongly that
many of the issues and misconceptions we all have about each other are due to our lack
of understanding about who our neighbors are because we don't take the time to get to
know them.
Ken Funk of the Pepperwood Neighborhood Association has offered his assistance in
providing training to our students for this project. The training will include not only
how to apply the house numbers to the curb but provide guidance in presenting the
project to the resident to encourage their participation.
The Grant Wood Neighborhood Association will also be including notification of this
project in their newsletter to encourage participation and make neighbors aware that
this is a worthwhile project. Thank you.

A. Briefly describe the activities (meetings, newsletters, events, participation in the Neighborhood Council,
etc.) of the neighborhood association over the past 12 months.
The Association has been very active over the past 12 months, primarily through work done by the
Neighborhood Representative (Jean Walker) and the Neighborhood's Executive Committee.
In particular, the Association has been continuing its work to preserve the Neighborhood.
Attempts were made, by the Neighborhood Rep., to have Irving Weber's house (in our neighborhood)
designated a Landmark Building in its own right, on the National Register of Historic Places.
Attempts were made to have a sidewalk installed by the new property owner at 402 Myrtle Avenue
when he demolished a house and installed a multi - family dwelling there.
The Neighborhood Rep. has participated in multiple meetings with UI and City representatives
concerning the improvement of football game days and has represented the neighborhood concerning
football game day vending on Melrose Avenue at various meetings.
The Neighborhood hosted a Party in the Park, September 29, 2011.
There was a meeting of the Neighborhood with UI and UIHC officials in August, 2011 re: construction
of the new Children's Hospital. A second such meeting occurred in December, 2011 concerning the
construction of a parking lot in our Neighborhood. This meeting elicited much correspondence from the
Neighborhood (Rep.) to the UI, the State Board of Regents, and the press. Subsequently the
Neighborhood Rep. and another neighbor have participated in four UI planning meetings (to date) for
the parking lot, which has generated much discussion and two meetings of the Neighborhood

B. Describe the project; why is it needed and what are its goals.
Groups of daffodil, crocus, and snowdrop bulbs, and Ajuga plants, will be placed at the entrance stone
for Brookland Park, in the Melrose Neighborhood. The plantings will beautify the entrance to
Brookland Park, which was renovated in 2007, for the enjoyment of neighbors and the general public,
whether using the park, walking through it or driving or bike - riding past it. The plantings will highlight
the entrance stone (inscribed 'Brookland Park') and make the entrance more welcoming. This project
has been approved by Mike Moran, director of the City's Parks and Recreation Department. Steve
Ford, landscape architect and Principal at Confluence, generously donated his time and expertise in
assisting with the design of the bulbs' and plants' layout. (Steve developed the Masterplan Concept
for Brookland Park's major renovation in 2007.)
Add additional pages if necessary.
C. General List and Description of Activities with estimated time line: (please indicate if this project will or
could be phased over a number of years).
This project would be completed in the Fall of 2012, probably between the middle of September and
the middle of October, weather permitting. It is a one -time project and would not be phased over a
number of years. The project involves removing the weeds and other growth in the planting area,
digging the soil to loosen it and make the holes for the bulbs, adding bone meal, placing the bulbs,
burying them with soil, watering them in, and adding mulch. The Ajuga area will be prepared and the
plants planted and watered in. Neighbors will supply tools and labor. The bulb area will be planted with
groups of five daffodils, interspersed with groups of crocuses and with snowdrops. Ajuga plants will be
in an area to the right of the bulb area. See attached photos for layout design.

AMENDMENT TO THE MELROSE NEIGHBORHOOD PIN GRANT APPLICATION
Since the original Melrose Neighborhood PIN grant application was submitted for consideration,
the City has developed plans to improve the planting area by removing the spirea shrubs that tend
to obscure the Brookland Park sign (see photo in original application), and replace them with
boxwood shrubs that will not take up as much room.
This means that there will be a gap between the boxwoods and the bulb plantings. Therefore we
would like to amend our application to allow for an extra row of 6 groups of 5 daffodils, an extra
row of 7 groups of 5 crocuses and 35 additional snowdrop bulbs scattered amongst the additional
daffodil and crocus bulb groups.
In addition, in order to discourage weed growth and thus decrease the maintenance of the planted
bed, we would like to add a mass planting of a low maintenance perennial in the area to be planted
with bulbs. Iowa City Landscaping was consulted about this matter and their recommendation
was for 20 plants of Palace Purple Coralbells.
Addition of the Coralbells will provide interest in the planting in front of the Brookland Park sign
throughout the summer and into the fall, and they will be enjoyed by everyone passing by. In
addition, the actual planting of the bulbs and plants will create a time for neighbors to work
together and get to know each other better, thus building community.
The original budget (see below) has been amended to reflect the changes described above.

B. Describe the project; why is it needed and what are its goals.
This project will fund five - Party in the Park events that will be held during Fiscal Year 2013 (July 1,
2012 - June 30, 2013). These parks were not included as part of the regularly scheduled Party in the
Park program sponsored by the Park and Recreation Department. This year, funding for the Party in
the Park program would only allow for 12 events throughout Iowa City. In order to provide the
opportunity for more of these events to occur, the Miller Orchard, College Green, Ty'n Cae, Goosetown
and Melrose Neighborhood Associations have agreed to apply for PIN grant funding for these events to
occur. Each event is estimated to cost $300
C. General List and Description of Activities with estimated time line: (please indicate if this project will or
could be phased over a number of years).
The neighborhood assocaitions will be responsible for securing entertainment and hosting these events
as well as promotion of the parties through their standard methods of newsletters, yard signs and
electronic media. Although each neighborhood can develop their Party in the Park as they wish, most
will expand upon the event by including snacks, activities, pot lucks, etc.

allowing the Little Free Library to be located on their property (between the sidewalk and home) and/ or
sponsoring a LFL that will be located on public property. Approval has also been received for any of
LFL that will be located on public property (i.e. city parks). It has been requested that LFL NOT be
installed between the sidewalk and curb as this can present an increased hazard to drivers if they
should jump the curb.) All LFL projects will be constructed, installed, registered with the Little Free
Library website (www.littlefreelibrary.org) no later than June 30, 2013.

Little Free Library Mission
• To promote literacy and the love of reading by building free book exchanges
worldwide.
• To build a sense of community as we share skills, creativity and wisdom across
generations.
• To build more than 2,510 libraries around the world - -more than Andrew Carnegie!
History of Little Free Library
(From NBC News)
Three years ago Todd Bol came up with an idea to remember his mother, a teacher who had
loved books and encouraged people to read. At his home in Hudson, Wisc., he built a box,
made it waterproof and filled it with books. It looked like a miniature one -room schoolhouse,
with a sign underneath that said "Free Book Exchange." Bo/ put it on a post outside of his
house and invited neighbors to take a book, and return a book.
That's when something happened Bol says he never could have imagined.
"People of all ages, men, women, kids came up and just loved the library," he said. "They got
excited and they started coming up to me saying, '1'11 build one, do you need books ? "'
The idea has mushroomed. Bol now encourages people to visit his website
(www.littlefreelibrary.ora) for suggestions on how to build their own library.
Today there are Little Free Libraries in at least 40 states and 20 countries including Ghana,
Australia and Afghanistan. And people from more than a dozen other countries have expressed
interest, Bol said.
You can find the little libraries not just in front of homes, but also outside of health centers,
coffee shops, bike paths, bus stops and storefronts. People are encouraged to send in a
picture of their library so it can be posted on the website. In return they get a "Little Free
Library. Take a Book, Return a Book" sign to post on what they've built, as well as a Little Free
Library Charter number.
Each library is unique.
And each one has become more than just a place for getting books and leaving books. Bol said
the little libraries have fostered a greater sense of community.
"There's a primal need," he said, 'for people to be a part of their community. We have people
tell us all the time in seven days of having a Little Free Library I've met more people than I have
met in 20 years in my neighborhood."
Terri Connolly Crank, who also lives in Madison, said people in the neighborhood who never
stopped and talked before are stopping now because of the library that rests on the corner of
her property. The library is not just encouraging readers, it's giving neighbors opportunities to
get to know each other.
Part of the allure of the Little Free Libraries, Bol said, is that you don't need a library
card. There are no fees, no fines and no operating hours. The Little Free Libraries are open for
business 2417. So any time of day, people can get a book or share a book, hopefully a page
turner.
Free Little Libraries in Iowa City
Iowa City, the United States' first UNESCO City of Literature, was approached by Little Free
Libraries (LFL) in the summer of 2011 to partner with them on a project that would encourage
the growth of LFL throughout Iowa City. Since that time, UNESCO has entered into a letter of
agreement with the founders of LFL that creates that formal partnership between LFL's and the
Iowa City UNESCO City of Literature. As part of the agreement, LFL has committed to assisting
in funding the standard $25 per library registration fee and develop a plaque that includes the
UNESCO City of Literature logo for each library. All LFL's will receive a "charter number" and will
be registered on the national LFL website. To assist in reaching out to the Iowa City community
and encouraging development and installation of LFL's throughout the city, the Office of
Neighborhood Services staff will assist the Iowa City UNESCO staff to provide resources such as:
• Step by Step Guide — How to participate in the Free Little Library Program in Iowa City
• Recruitment of local carpenters /organizations interested in creating or assisting with the
creation of LFL's
• Assistance in process to Charter and Register a LFL with freelittlelibrary.org and the
UNESCO City of Literature
• Development of a local website providing assistance for the LFL program operating in
Iowa City
• List of Free Book resources for your LFL in Iowa City
As part of this assistance, the Office of Neighborhood Services solicited neighborhood
associations in Iowa City to consider participating in sponsoring a LFL — with funding for such to
be requested as part of the Program for Improving Neighborhoods. The response was
overwhelming with 6 neighborhoods immediately securing locations and stewards for one or
more LFL in their boundaries.
This grant request includes funding for a minimum of 9 LFL's although it is expected, assuming
many are constructed of recycling materials by volunteer carpenters, that many more can be
produced and installed throughout Iowa City. The highest cost of LFL's who involved those
purchased through the LFL website at over $300, registration costs are $25 and installation of
the LFL could average $50 —100 as the support posts need to be buried below frost footing (42 ")
in Iowa and secured with cement.
Although neighborhood associations have identified a variety of resources for materials and
carpentry — minimum hard costs would still likely include registration ($25), miscellaneous
hardware such as hinges, latches, Plexiglas, post and braces, etc. ($50 -$75). Installation costs
would add to that cost. This grant would provide that assistance to neighborhood groups who
might otherwise not be able to fund such a project.
The Office of Neighborhood Services will also explore opportunities for creating a contact list of
retired carpenters, school "shop" classes, Senior Center members that might be willing to
construct LFL. The concept of hosting a "Build your own FLF" workshops is being discussed in
cooperation with UNESCO.
Enabling neighborhood participation in the program through the Program for Improving
Neighborhoods fund will provide a valuable hub for neighborhood literacy for years to come.
Several neighborhoods, including Miller Orchard (1), Northside (2), Grant Wood (2), Longfellow
(2), Goosetown (1) and Melrose (1) have already secured locations for the LFL's as well as
stewards who will oversee the upkeep, inventory and general well -being of the libraries. Interest
has been expressed by other neighborhood associations in hosting LFL's and participating
neighborhoods expect to see additional interest in their areas as LFL's start appearing. The
following are photos of LFL's from the LFL website.

MEMORANDUM
Date: June 14, 2012
To: City Council
From: Thomas M. Markus, City Manager
Re: Resolution authorizing an agreement between the City of Iowa City, Kobrin
Development Company Inc, formally known as Southgate Development Company
Inc, and Crossing Development LC. Wherein the City will subordinate its mortgage
to a first lien in order for Crossing Development LC to secure a new development
loan.
Introduction:
Coralville, Iowa City and the developer jointly constructed Camp Cardinal Road. The costs
associated with this development were divided between the two cities pursuant to a 28E
agreement. The City issued bonds for the roadway improvement. The portion of the bonds
attributed to the developer's share of the roadway improvement was subject to reimbursement
to the City pursuant to a promissory note agreement dated April 25, 2005. The original note
balance was $1,260,909.91 and carried an interest rate of 5.6608% (bond interest rate).
The developer, the Crossing Development LC, doing business as Kobrin Development
Company Inc. has requested the City to take a subordinated position on our promissory note
agreement. The developer wishes to secure additional financing and wants to use the equity in
the land encumbered by the City of Iowa City's promissory note agreement.
History/Background:
The City was approached by the developer and was requested to subordinate the City's
promissory note agreement (mortgage) to a first lien. This will allow the developer to service
additional financing with which the developer will exercise their option to purchase the remaining
land from Clear Creek and to build the needed infrastructure to allow for further private
development.
The current principle balance due to the City is $977,725.35 with an interest rate of 5.6608 %.
When City staff first met to hear their proposal, staff told the developer that the City would need
to come to an arrangement that accelerated the payoff of the promissory note and that the
remaining value left in the mortgaged property was sufficient to cover the new development loan
and the City's subordinated mortgage.
In a letter dated May 21, 2012, the developer proposed to 1. Make a $250,000 payment upon
their closing of the new development loan. 2. Begin making regular amortized monthly
payments of principle and interest, which would result in a final payment being made on 2 -26-
17, which is the end date of the current loan. 3. The developer agreed to make additional
payments if they either platted or sold property before the loan end date. In turn, the City would
take a subordinate position.
June 14, 2012
Page 2
Discussion of Solutions:
Once we were confident that the current value of the land supported the two mortgages, we felt
that we could reach an agreement. We have made the following modifications to which the
developer has agreed to:
1. Increase the payment upon closing from $250,000 to $377,725.35, plus payment of interest
due currently estimated at $55,345.86 on June 29, 2012.
2. Upon sale of the final plat of any of the subject property of 5 acres or more, the developer
would make additional payments of $4,300 per acre.
3. Evidence provided to the City that shows the proceeds of the new loan will be used to acquire
and improve the subject property.
4. These changes and other provisions not altered by negotiations will be summarized in a new
note approved by the City Attorney.
Financial Impact:
The expected impact is that the current promissory note held by the City will be paid off sooner
under the revised agreement. The City is confident that the land value is adequate to provide
coverage for the new loan and the City's subordinated loan.
The primary motivation for considering this arrangement is to have this development improved
(shovel ready) for additional development and added to the tax base. It seems to me that this
could be viewed as an economic development effort on the part of the City.
The final impact should be positive. The added risk under this arrangement may result if there
was a substantial decline in value on the property which could put our note at greater risk than
what exists under the current scenario.
Recommendation:
I recommend approval of the proposed agreement between the City of Iowa City and Kobrin
Development Inc. and the Crossing Development LC wherein the City will subordinate its
current mortgage to a first lien in order for Crossing Development LC to secure a new
development loan.

DATE: June 11, 2012
TO: Tom Markus, City Manager
FROM: Susan Craig, Library Director
RE: Iowa City Public Library Friends Foundation budgeted positions/
June 19, 2012 City Council agenda
Since it was established in 1982, the Library Foundation (now known as Iowa City
Public Library Friends Foundation), a 501(c)3 non - profit corporation, has contributed
millions of dollars in support of the Iowa City Public Library. The Library Development
Director works with the Friends Foundation Board of Directors to raise funds, and will
soon unveil a campaign to raise matching funds for the building renovation and increase
overall private support for Library programs and services. The Friends Foundation has
endorsed a new strategic plan that calls for adding a second full -time staff person to the
Development Office. As is the case for the Development Director, all personnel costs for
the new staff person will be paid from private funds, initially from Foundation reserves,
and in the future by new income.
The Library has a long history of fundraising through staff working with volunteers.
When the non - profit was established, a part-time executive director /fund raiser was
hired and, as the Foundation became more successful, that position was gradually
increased to full -time. A part-time assistant was later hired. That position eventually
became full -time, and was reduced to half -time in 2000 during an economic downturn.
The Foundation Board of Directors believes the time is right to increase staffing once
again, and is confident that a higher level of fundraising can be maintained in order to
support both the new staff and the programs and services of the Iowa City Public
Library.
The Foundation Board of Directors and I have very seriously considered the Board's
request for an additional full -time person. Non - profit organizations often rely on
temporary help, or hire outside consultants, both of which have been done in the past.
However, fundraising is a highly competitive field, and the expertise and donor
relationships that another full -time person can develop will be a wise investment. An
average of $140,535 annually has been presented to the Library by the Foundation over
the past three years, excluding salary and benefits grants. The additional person will
assist with all aspects of development work.
The Iowa City Public Library Development Director's job is classified in the
Administrative and Confidential Pay Plan at class 10, with a FY13 salary of $73,777.
The .5 time office assistant has an annual salary of $22,266. The proposed position is in
the AFSCME pay plan, grade 9, with a beginning salary of $40,560.
Recommendation:
I and the Board of Directors of the Iowa City Public Library Friends Foundation
recommend City Council approve the addition of a full -time staff person to the Library
Development Office. Library users will benefit from enhanced programs and services at
no cost to the taxpayer. Funding for said position will be paid annually to the Iowa City
Public Library/City of Iowa City by the Iowa City Public Library Friends Foundation.
