(HOTEL).
Action:
ITEM NO. 6 -
Comment: Because of the lack of space behind the hotel,
additional area is needed to allow room for trucks to
maneuver for loading and unloading, so the easement
previously sold to the developer needs to be enlarged. Dr.
Johnson will pay for the additional space at the same rate
per square foot ($2.70) as the original easement. The
additional area contains approximately 2,352 square feet,
so the additional payment will be $6,350.40.

CONSIDER RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND THE CITY
MANAGER TO SIGN AND THE CITY CLERK TO ATTEST A GRANT
AGREEMENT WITH THE IOWA DEPARTMENT OF WATER, AIR, AND WASTE
MANAGEMENT FOR FUNDING OF THE STEP 1 WORK (SEWER STUDY) OF
THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY.
This grant is for 5% of the Step I (Sewer Study) expendi-
ture of $403,949.00 or $20,197.00. Normally this grant
agreement would not be executed until after construction is
complete; however, since it is doubtful that the City will
receive any grant money for construction in the near
future, the Iowa Department of Water, Air, and Waste
Management has approved a State grant for the City's Step I
work at this time. The City's Step I work was completed in
1979.
