City's right to install improvements upon subdi• videos failure to do so. (a) In the event the subdivider, its assigns or successors in interest, should sell or convey lots in a subdivision without having had constructed or installed the pavement, water mains and sanitary sewers; or if the subdivider, its assigns or successors in interest or the owners of the lots in such subdi- vision should fail to construct sidewalks, the city shall have the right to install and construct such Improvements and the costs of such improvements shall be a lien and charge against all the lots adjacent to or in front of which improvements are made and any lots which may be assessed for improve- ments under the provisions of Chapter 384 of the Code of Iowa. The cost of such improvements need not meet the require- ments, of notice, benefit or value as provided by state law for assessing such improvements. It is further provided that this requirement to so construct such improvements is and shall remain a lien from date until properly released as hereinafter provided. (b) When required improvements have been installed to the satisfaction of the city, It will immediately file in the office of the county recorder a good and sufficient release V to various lots In such subdivisions so that this section will not constitute a cloud upon the title of the lots in the subdi- vision. Sec. 32.7. Exceptions. (a) Modi%:calions of requirements. Upon recommendation of the planning and zoning commission, or if it deems such action to be appropriate, the city council may vary, modify, or waive the requirements of Article' III of this chapter under the following circumstances: (1) Where, in the case of a particular proposed subdivision or plat thereof it can be shown that strict compliance with the requirements of Article III of this chapter would result in extraordinary hardship to the subdivider because of unusual topography, excessive costs, or other such non - self -inflicted conditions or that these conditions wguld re - Supp. No. 37 2200 /s3 7 9 SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS ¢ 32-7 suit in inhibiting the achievement of the objectives of these regulations, or (2) Where it can be shown that strict compliance with Article III would result in poor subdivision design or could result in the substantial degradation of natural features. Any action to vary, modify, or waive a requirement must as. sure that the public interest is secured and that such variance, modification, or waiver will not have the effect of nullifying the intent or purposes of this chapter. (b) Reduction of pavement width. requirements. In the case of subdivisions, which include. cull -de -sac or 'loop" streets (less than njne hundred (900) feet in length), the required pavement width for such streets may be reduced from twenty-eight (28) feet back-to-back of curb to twenty- two (22) feet back-to-back of curb if provision is made for storage of at least five (5) automobiles on each lot as pro- vided in section 8.10.25 of the zoning ordinance. These addi- tional parking spaces may be located in the front yard. A driveway may be used to fulfill the additional parking re- quirements only if it is double width and served by a double width curb entrance. These parking spaces shall be shown on the building plans for each lot in the subdivision and shall be necessary for the approval of a building permit. Such parking spaces shall be constructed at the time of the house construc- tion. In lieu of the provision of the five (5) parking spaces mentioned above on each individual lot, a "community" or neighborhood parking lot may be provided to serve a group of residences. The same number of parking spaces shall be provided in such lots as would have been required of the resi- dences so served. Such parking shall be located no more than two hundred (200) feet from any residences served. Where such parking lots are used, adequate provisions for their main- tenance and preservation as parking lots must be provided. Where such exception to pavement width is desired, the method of providing the above required off-street storage of automo- biles shall be indicated on the preliminary rind final subdivi- sion plans and shall be a requirement for final approval. These off-street parking areas, either on each individual parcel or Supp. No. 37 2201 /S37 9 ■. . I , . 4327 IOWA CITY CODE community parking lots, shall be designed so that they are functional and compatible with the overall development of the area. They shall be surfaced in accordance with standards he the city engineer's office. Upon approval of the final plat and of n subdivision containing twenty-two (22) feet residential j streets, parking on both sides of such streets shall be pro- hibited and appropriate signs designating same shall be posted by the city. (c) Unusual plats. This chapter shall not preclude the ap- proval of "cluster" type subdivisions or subdivision designs of an unusual type, if, in the opinion of the planning and zon- log commission, the general and aesthetic merit, the preser- vation of natural or topographic features, and the prospective enhancement of the community would warrant the waiving of technical requirements as set forth in article III of this chap- ter. (d) Council action. In all cases, of a variance, modification, or a waiver of the general requirements, it will be necessary to have the city council approve the same and note this fact in the resolution approving the plat and subdivision. The council may also modify, vary or waive the general requirements on its motion for good reason shown, even if the planning commis- sion refused to do so. (Code 1066, § 3,60.6) Sec. 328. Selling before approval; penally; suits by mu- nicipalities. Except pursuant to an agreement expressly conditioned on final subdivision approval, it shall be unlawful for any person or persons, as owner or agent, to agree to transfer or sell, or to transfer or sell, any land which forms a part of a subdivision for which city council approval is required pursuant to the require- ments described in this chapter, before final subdivision approval has been granted. Each lot disposition so made shall be deemed a separate violation. In addition to the foregoing, the appropriate authorities of the city may institute injunction, mandamus or other appropriate action or proceeding to prevent any pending sale or transfer, or to prevent any further sale or transfer in violation of this chapter.

Off-site costs for out -of -sequence development. (a) At the time the preliminary subdivision plat or prelimi. nary large scale development plan for an out -of -sequence devel. opment is approved, the resolution of approval shall specify that the development is oufof-sequence, and that off-site costs are recoverable by the developer. (b) Offsite improvements shall be designed and constructed according to plans and specifications approved by the city engi- neer, and shall be of sufficient size and capacity to serve the full area which is capable of being served by the type of improvement so that the city will not be required to construct parallel or duplicate facilities. (c) Recoverable off-site costs shall include the cost of engineer. ing, preliminary reports, property valuations, estimates, plans, specifications, notices, legal services, acquisition of land, cone. quential damages or costs, easements, rights-of-way, construe• tion, repair, supervision, inspection, testing, and interest during construction and for not more than six (6) months thereafter. (d) The amount of off-site costs to be recovered shall be deter. mined as follows: As part of the application for final subdivision plat or large scale development plan approval, the developer shall submit a proposed estimate of off-site costs for approval by the city engineer, together with a nonrefundable review fee equal to three (3) per cent of the proposed estimate. The city engineer shall approve the proposed estimate only if the engineer finds that, at the time of approval, the estimate is consistent with the cost obtainable within Iowa City for improvements of the type proposed. Offsite costs shall be recoverable only to the extent of actual costs or estimated costs, whichever is lesser. (e) At the time an offsite public improvement is accepted by the city for public maintenance, based upon information furnished by the developer, the city engineer shall certify to the city council the amount of recoverable off-site costs, and the total land area Supp. No. 37 2217 N I 4 3262 IOWA CITY CODE and/or lineal footage outside of the developer's site which is ex. pected to be served by the off-site improvement. (f) Thereafter, the city council shall, by ordinance, adopt a schedule of fees to be paid for connection to the off-site improvements. (1) The fee for each off-site improvement shall be pro -rata, based upon recoverable of --site costs, less the amount thereof relating to overwidth paving or oversized water mains or sewer lines, divided by the number of acres and/or lineal footage which will be served by the public improvement. (2) The ordinance shall also provide for reimbursement to developer from the cityfor the extra costs incurred for the following: Overwidih paving. The city's share shall be the actual cost per linear foot of paving wider than requiredby the city for local streets, and shall be considered a strip in the center of the pavement. Oversized water mains or sewer lines The city's share shall be the difference in cost between the pipe, main or conduit plus valves and valve boxes required by the city 'and pipe, main or conduit plus valves and valve boxes needed to service only the subdivision or planned develop. menta Reimbursement of the costs of overwidth paving, or over. sized water mains or sewer lines shall be made upon the earliest to occur of the following: a. The city's comprehensive plan is amended to show the developer's site is included in the areas available for development in the short range, or b. Development of the area or areas between the devel- oper's site and the platted streets nearest to such site has been substantially completed. For purposes hereof, development has been substantially completed when all of the land in the area has been platted and building permits have been issued for construction on at least ninety (90) per cent of the lots in such area. Supp. No. 37 2218 a SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS R 3262 (3) When the conditions for reimbursement have been met, - the city will reimburse developer for the costs described in paragraph (2). ff such reimbursement occurs within twenty-four (24) months atter either the comprehensive plan has been amended or intervening development has been substantially complet- ed, reimbursement shall be on a dollar -for -dollar basis, _. with no interest or carrying costs. Any amount unpaid at the end of the twenty -four-month period shall thereafter bear interest until paid at a rate equal to the rate the city is paying on the last general obligation bonds it issued prior to the interest commencement date. (4) The ordinance shall also contain a legal description of the entire area served by the off-site improvement, and the city clerk shall file a copy of the ordinance in the office of the Johnson County Recorder. (b) Because public improvements have a limited useful life, a _ developer's right to reimbursement, and the effectiveness of each specific connection ordinance shall expire twenty (20) years from the date of its passage. (g) At such time as any part of the off-site area served by an offsite improvement is subdivided by platting, or becomes sub. jectto a large scale development plan, the resolution approving the preliminary plat or plan shall set forth the amount of the connection fee or fees which shall be paid with respect to the subdivision or large scale development. (h) Connection fees shall be collected by the city prior to the time, and as a condition to approval of each final subdivision plat or large scale development plan described in subsection (g). Not- withstanding the foregoing, if a building permit is sought for any property included within the area served by an off-site improve- ment before a subdivision plat or largo scale development plan is required for such area, the appropriate fee shall be paid prior to issuance of the building permit. (i) The city shall remit to the developer monthly the amount of connection fees collected during the prior month. Supp. No. 37 2219 5 3262 IOWA CITY CODE 0) The reimbursement permitted in this section is in lieu of any and all other claims for reimbursement by developer. The developer, by making application for subdivision plat or large scale development plan approval, waives, all rights or claims against the city for reimbursement of off-site costs, or any costs or contributions incident to the development. (k) Off-site costs are not an obligation of the city nor a charge against its citizens or its taxing power. The city shall have no obligation with respect -to such costs except to remit to developer the fees it collects. (Ord.

Clear Creek Subdivision GENERAL INFORMATION: Applicant: Requested action: Purpose: Location: Prepared by: Barry Beagle Date: October 6, 1988 Clear Creek Investment Co. 1130 Merchants National Bank Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52401 Vacation of a portion of Clear Creek Subdivision. To resolve a conflict with the approval of the original plat. Northwest Iowa City, north of Melrose Avenue. via Camp Cardinal Road. Size: Approximately 327 acres. Existing land use and zoning: Agricultural; ID -ORP. BACKGROUND: In accordance with Section 409.19 of the Code of Iowa, the applicant Proposes to vacate a portion of Clear Creek Subdivision. On June 19, 1984, the City Council approved the preliminary and final plat of Clear Creek Subdivision, establishing a three lot, 330 acre subdivision in northwest Iowa City. (See Attached Plat) Parcels A and B were sold to Mr. Alan Nagel, who continues to own the tract of land between the two parcels, with the remaining approximate 327 acres (Parcel C) retained by Clear Creek Investment Co. At the time of the subdivision request, it was not detected that Parcel C overlapped the corporate boundaries and should have also received the approval of Johnson County. This discrepancy was not discovered until recently and has placed a cloud over the title for each of the lots in the subdivision. As not to endanger the entire subdivision, the applicant proposes to vacate Parcel C from the sub- division leaving Parcels A and B as Clear Creek Subdivision. Upon vacation, Parcel C will be described by metes -and -bounds description. The 1984 plat provided for the dedication of 33 feet of right-of-way to the City along the subdivisions frontage with Camp Cardinal Road. The proposed vacation will not affect this dedicated right-of-way. There are no public improvements or utility easements extending through or into the subdivision that would need to be retained or protected. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff has no objection to the proposed vacation of Parcel C from the plat of Clear Creek Subdivision and recommends that the City Council be advised to give its consent. 15:0- A Page 2 ATTACHMENTS: 1.
