CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO SIGN AND THE CITY CLERK TO ATTEST AN AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT WITH IOWA REALTY COMMERCIAL TO SELL AND/OR LEASE PROPERTY IN AVIATION COMMERCE PARK TO CHANGE THE PRICING MODEL. Comment: The listing agreement to sell and lease the property known as Aviation Commerce Park ("ACP") executed by the Airport Commission, the City Council, and Iowa Realty Commercial will expire on January 22, 2008.

ACP can still be sold as one development; the pricing model simply guides Iowa Realty's marketing efforts.
