TO: Steve Atkins, City Manager , .,~/
FROM: Susan Craig, Library Director
RE: Deal with Qwest
I wanted to provide a little background and detail on the deal with Qwest that has
been finalized and sent on to the City Council. During urban renewal when the
current library was built Qwest constructed a pedestal off of the alley north of the
library that provides telephone connections to a majority of the downtown area.
This pedestal space was in a "cut out" in the back of the library building. At the
time Qwest did not reimburse the City for use of that space and there was no
easement established for their use of a portion of the library's footprint.
During planning for the new library, Qwest was asked to move their pedestal
because the space was needed by the Library. Qwest requested that we
reconsider because of the expense they would incur to move the pedestal and
the extended disruption to downtown telephone service. Joel Miller, the Library
Project Manger and Andy Matthews from the City Attorney's Office worked with
Qwest to reach the agreement that has been recommended to Council. The
pedestal will stay where it is, but be redesigned to take up less space. It will
remain inside the footprint of the library building, be enclosed and accessed
through a door in the north wall of the library. This secure access will eliminate
problems we've had in the past with garbage collecting in the area.
Qwest will provide compensation for "buiiding" this 2' X 4.5" space of $3,505 as
well as a one time payment of $19,000 for continued use of the space. Joel and
Andy deserve credit for negotiating this agreement.

Chapter 6B of the Iowa Code requires a governmental body which proposes to acquire

notice of thc project to all agricultural property owners whose properties may be affected and
to hold a public hearing.
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT.
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to the above-identified agricultural property owners that the
City Council of the City of Iowa City will consider funding of the site-specific design for the

location, or acquiring or condemning property rights, if necessary, required for the project.
Said project involves construction of a sanitary trunk sewer from Scott Park along Ralston
Creek to Lower West Branch Road.
2. PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTSMAY BE ACQUIRED BY NEGOTIATION
OR CONDEMNATION.
If the above-described project is approved by the City Council, the City may need to acquire
property rights for the project improvements. Property rights may include a temporary
construction easement, a permanent easement, and/or a fee simple parcel (complete
ownership). Upon review of the records of the Iohnson County Auditor, it appears that
properties or portions of properties owned by the above-identified persons may have to be
acquired for the project by the methods described above. The City will attempt to purchase
the required property by good faith negotiations. If negotiations are unsuccessful, the City
will condemn those property rights which it determines are necessary for the project. The
proposed location of the above-described public improvement is shown on documentation
which is now on file in the' office of the City Clerk and available for public viewing.

ACQUIRE PROPERTY RIGHTS; CITY COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED TO
FUND PROJECT.
The City has provided funding in its budget for this project, as well as funding to acquire any
property rights that may be needed for the project. City staff has analyzed the options for how
to proceed with this project and has coordinated project planning with other appropriate
agencies. The planning has reached the point where preliminary designs now indicate that
certain property rights may need to be acquired. Any public comment will be considered in
preparing the final designs, particularly as private property may be affected.
In making the decision to fund the site-specific design for the public improvement, to make
the final selection of the route or site location, or to acquire or condemn property rights, if
necessary, the City Council is required to hold a public hearing, giving persons interested in
the proposed project the opportunity to present their views regarding the decision to fund the
2
site-specific designs for the project, make the final selection of the route or site location, or to
acquire or condemn, if necessary, property or an interest in property for the project. The
public hearing will be held on the 18th day of February, 2003 in the City Council
Chambers, Civic Center, 410 East Washington Street, Iowa City, Iowa, commencing at
7:00 p.m. or, if cancelled, at the next meeting of the City Council thereafter as posted by
the City Clerk. In order to fund the site-specific design for the public improvement, to
make the final selection of the route or site location, or to conwaence the acquisition or
condemnation of property rights, if necessary, for the above-described project, City Council
will be required to approve the project and authorize acquisition of private property rights for
the project by Council resolution. The City Council is scheduled to consider adoption of a
resolution authorizing acquisition of property fights for the above-described project following
the public hearing.
When an appraisal is required, if the project is approved by the City Council, an appraiser
will determine the compensation to be paid for easements and/or property acquired in fee
simple. The City will offer no less than the appraised value and will attempt to purchase only
the needed property by good faith negotiations. If the City is unable to acquire properties
needed for the project by negotiation, the City will acquire those property fights by
condemnation.

MEMORANDUM
Date: December 31, 2002
To: City Council
From: Mitchel T. Behr, Assistant City Attorney ,~4'~::~
Re: Disposition of alley in Block 27, Original Town, to Mercy Hospital
As "trustee" of public property, the City Council must dispose of such property in good
faith, upon adequate consideration, and upon reasonable and lawful terms. Generally, the
principle requiring "adequate consideration" has been recognized to mean that a
municipality must obtain fair market value for the property to be conveyed, assuming the
transaction does not entail other public benefit. Determining "adequate consideration" or
fair market value for parcels of public property, particularly former right-of-way property,
can be difficult. The City Council considers the specific facts of each situation when
determining the appropriate payment for conveyance of such property. In past
conveyances, the amount of consideration has been based on the assessed value of the
neighboring property. When available, the appraised value of the subject property or
neighboring property can also serve as a basis for the determination of the appropriate
amount of consideration. Factors such as the existence of easements which limit the
buildable area of the property, the imposition of conditions which limit the use of the
property, or a public benefit from the disposition, may support a lower amount of
consideration.
As indicated in the Staff Report, the Planning & Zoning Commission and City Staff
recommend that disposition of the above-referenced alley be subject to a utility easement
and the following conditions:
1) No direct vehicular access will be sought by or granted to Mercy Hospital to Market
Street;
2) The current alley intersection with Dodge Street will be closed and there will be no
additional direct vehicular access from Block 27 onto Dodge Street; provided,
however, the exit-only from the existing parking facility onto Dodge Street will be
allowed to remain; and
3) Any overhead utilities relocated from the alley will be located at least 100 feet from
Bloomington and Market Streets or placed underground.
The properties owned by Mercy adjacent to the alley are assessed at between $10 to $12
per square foot. Use of these assessed values would attribute to the alley a value
between $63,970 and $76,764.
Mercy has offered to purchase the alley property, subject to the conditions stated above,
for the sum of $1.00. They have not provided an appraisal. The basis for their offer is
explained in a letter from their attorney, Mr. Thomas Gelman. In summary, Mr. Gelman
asserts the following:
1) The utility easement to be retained over the alley, which prevents building on the
area, diminishes the value of the property;
2) The conditions imposed by the City diminish the value of Mercy's adjacent
property;
3) The conditions imposed by the City provide a public benefit to the City; and
December 31, 2002
Page 2
4) Mercy will incur costs of approximately $3,684 to close the current curb-cut to the
alley and $45,922 if they choose to relocate the overhead utilities from the alley.
In support of their $1.00 offer, Mr. Gelman argues that the value to the community of the
conditions imposed by the City and the diminution in value of the alley property
occasioned by the utility easement offset the fair market value of the alley properly.
While City Staff recognizes that the utility easement and conditions imposed by the City
may have some impact on the value of the property, Staff cannot support Mercy's $1.00
offer. Staff questions the extent to which the conditions imposed by the City diminish the
value of Mercy's adjacent property. Staff also questions the extent to which any such
diminution in value, costs to be incurred by Mercy or public benefit resulting from the
conditions imposed by the City offset the value of the alley. Staff feels the conditions to
be imposed upon this disposition would be necessary in connection with any
redevelopment of the adjacent property by Mercy in any event, regardless of the vacation
or conveyance of the alley.
As you know, there is not a real estate appraiser on City Staff. If City Council has
reservations about the $1.00 offer from Mercy, Council may request that Mercy provide an
appraisal of the property. Such an appraisal could assess the value of the alley property in
light of the current real estate market conditions and the conditions to be imposed upon
the disposition by the City.

Re: Mercy Hospital's acquisition of vacated alley
Richard M. Tucker
Dear Mayor Lehman and City Councilors:
lhomas H. Gelman
As legal counsel for Mercy Hospital, Iowa City, Iowa, I have been asked to
garyJ Schmit forward to you this offer. As you are aware, based upon Mercy Hospital's
application (VAC 02-00007) the east/west alley running through Block 27 of the
Margaret E Winegarden Original Town of Iowa City is being vacated. Assuming the completion of the
vacation process, Mercy Hospital wishes to acquire the alley and by this letter
.}ulieb. Pulkrabek offers $1.00. This is based upon the assessed value adjusted for applicable
conditions. Such purchase by Mercy would be under such other conditions as
John E Beasley may be acceptable to the City and Mercy·
Michael J ?ugh*
In preparation for making this offer Mercy has completed a comprehensive
review of the assessed land of all fourteen taxed properties in the 400, 500 and
Dean D Carrington
600 blocks of Bloomington Street in the vicinity of Block 27. All properties, with
Susan g. Frye the exception of one, are in the CO1 zone (the exception being 522 Bloomington
Street in an RM12 zone). The per square foot land values as assessed by the Iowa
City Assessor's Office range from a low of $6/square foot to a high of
$13.89/square foot, with the property now owned by Mercy within Block 27 at
SarahE Swartzendruber601 Bloomington Street being at $12/square foot. The average of the eight
properties used for commercial purposes in the CO 1 zone is $10.11/square foot.
Daniel W. Boyle
The alley is 6397 square feet as shown on the alley vacation plat prepared on
September 20, 2002 by Landmark Surveying & Engineering. At $10.11/square
foot this would total $64,673.67. This value represents an approximation of the
William M Tucker fair market value of the. 1468 acres before consideration of significant offsetting
Retired conditions·

In connection with the City's approval of the-:¥aeh~nl~ 'of'ttlelalley, three
conditions have been imposed as follows:
1. No direct vehicular access will be sou~j~c"by Mercy Ho'sl~Ctal to Market
Street;
2. The current alley intersection with Dodge Street will be closed and there
will be no additional direct vehicular access from Block 27 onto Dodge
Street; the exit-only from the existing parking facility onto Dodge Street
will be allowed to remain; and
3. Any overhead utilities relocated from the alley will be located at least 100
feet from Bloomington and Market Streets or placed underground.
The first condition imposes a new restriction on all of Mercy Hospital's property
that borders Market Street. This restriction burdens the real estate and affects
potential uses and has a negative financial impact on the real estate's value.
The second condition imposed by the City - closing the alley and restricting any
new vehicular access onto Dodge Street - also has a financial impact, both direct
and indirect. The direct impact is the cost of removing the alley apron, installing
a curb and installing proper landscaping and sidewalk within the right-of-way
adjacent to the property. This cost has been reasonably estimated to be $3684.
The indirect consequence of this access restriction is a negative financial impact
on all of Mercy's real estate bordering Dodge Street.
The third condition recognizes that the alley is bordered by an easement for
existing utilities. As presently constituted, the utilities and the associated
easement restrict any use of the alley for building purposes. Before the alley can
be utilized, the third condition requires the utility lines be relocated and
preferably placed under ground. Mercy's cost of doing so, as estimated by
MidAmerican Energy, will be $45,922.
It is evident that the utility easement's burden on the alley is substantial and
material in that the real estate cannot be built upon unless the utilities are
relocated at a cost of around $46,000. Additionally, Mercy must incur the direct
cost ($3684) of removing the alley access to Dodge Street. Furthermore, the
covenants restricting access on Dodge Street and Market Street have a material
impact on the value of Mercy's property now burdened by these restrictions that
provide benefit to the community. The value to the community of the conditions
imposed on Mercy's property and the diminution in value of the alley property
occasioned by the easement offset the fair market value of the .1468 acres
formally comprising the alley. Therefore, Mercy Hospital has offered to purchase
this real estate for the sum of $1.00. Mercy is confident that its obtaining this real
estate will allow it to provide enhanced community medical services to the Iowa
City area.

The City's fullest consideration of this proposal will be much appreciated.

EXHIBIT A
This governs the legal relationship (hereinafter called "Lease Agreement") between NAI Iowa Realty
Commercial (hereinafter called "Agent") and the Iowa City Airport Commission (hereinafter called
"Commission") with regard to leasing lots 1-17 in Aviation Commerce Park as designated on Exhibit "C"
of the Listing Agreement (hereinafter called "the Property").
1. AGENCY. Commission hereby employs Agent and Agent accepts such employment by
Commission as the exclusive agent with the sole right and authority, to offer for lease and to lease the
rentable portions of the Property Commission acknowledges that Tracy Overton is its project
representative. Agent shall assign Tracy Overton to this project through the expiration of the original
term of this Lease Agreement. If Agent assigns a person other than Tracy Overton to this project, said
person must be acceptable to Commission. If said person is of equal competence and experience to
Tracy Overton, but is not acceptable to Commission, Commission may elect to terminate this Lease
Agreement, and if Commission does elect to terminate, Commission shall pay to Agent an early
termination fee of $2,500, and not the full early termination fee of $5,000 provided in Paragraph 3
below. If said person is not of equal competence and experience to Tracy Overton and is not
acceptable to Commission, Commission may elect to terminate this Lease Agreement without incurring
any early termination fee.
2. TERM. The term of this Lease Agreement and Agent's employment, right and authority
shall commence upon execution of the Listing Agreement and terminate upon termination of the Listing
Agreement, unless sooner terminated by a ninety (90) day written notice by one party to the other party,
with or without cause. In the event the parties continue to observe this Lease Agreement following the
expiration of its stated term without formally renewing the Lease Agreement, it shall be deemed to
continue on a quarter to quarter basis subject to the ongoing termination rights of the parties.
3. EARLY TERMINATION. In the event the Commission elects to terminate this Lease
Agreement prior to the expiration of the original term, then Commission shall pay to Agent, at the time
of notice, a $5,000.00 termination fee, except as provided in Paragraph 1 above. In the event the Agent
elects to terminate Commission prior to the expiration of the original term, Agent agrees to furnish,
upon demand by the Commission and without cost, copies of all basic notes and sketches, charts,
computations, diagrams, charts, maps, and marketing materials prepared or obtained by Agent
pursuant to this Lease Agreement, without restrictions or limitation as to the use relative to the
marketing of the Property. In such event, Agent shall not be liable for the use of such documents by the
Commission or others.
4. AGENT'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Agent hereby agrees as follows:
a. To secure and compile appropriate and customary written information with respect to the
leasing of the Property.
b. To exert Agent's best efforts to perform its obligations under this Lease Agreement
including, but not limited to, enlisting the efforts and resources of Agent's organization,
and to: (i) list the Property for Lease with any local or other appropriate multiple listing
services; (ii) to place the appropriate signage on the Property; and (iii) advertise the
Property for lease in a commercially prudent manner. Agent shall advertise the Property
at monthly rentals and terms that have been approved in advance in writing by
Commission.
c. To submit written monthly progress reports to Commission by the first day of each month
beginning February 1, 2003, concerning prospective tenants and the status of any lease
negotiations together with current market information affecting the Property. At the
request of Commission, Agent shall attend meetings of Commission relative to the scope
of this Lease Agreement.
d. To solicit active cooperation from other qualified brokers in the leasing of the Property.
e. To use its best effods to lease the Property at the rentals and upon the terms approved
by Commission.
f. Agent will not be held liable for the performance of any term, covenant or condition
contained in any agreement pertaining to the Property except as set forth in this Lease
Agreement and in any other written Lease Agreement between the parties.
5. PAYMENT OF LEASING COMMISSION. Agent acknowledges and agrees that
Commission shall be obligated to pay leasing commissions and fees, as set forth below, only to Agent.
Agent shall be entirely responsible for payment and satisfaction of any and all co-brokerage obligations
due any other brokers or leasing agents working with Agent, or who have procured for Agent, or
referred to Agent, a tenant.
6. COMMISSION'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Commission hereby agrees as follows:
a. During the term of this Lease Agreement, Commission shall pay Agent a leasing fee
equal to twenty-five cents ($.25) per gross square foot of land area under lease. The
leasing fee shall be due and payable in three (3) equal annual installments with the first
installment due at the time of lease execution and each of the two remaining annual
installments due on/or before the subsequent lease execution anniversary dates.
b. In addition, Commission shall pay Agent a leasing fee, as set forth above, for leases
executed by Commission within one (1) year following the termination of this Lease
Agreement, provided: (i) Agent has previously shown the Premises to that tenant; (ii)
Agent has had active negotiations with tenant; and (iii) such tenant is included on a
written list of prospective tenants submitted to Commission within ten (10) calendar
days following the termination of this Lease Agreement.
c. Except as specifically set forth herein, to refrain from negotiations with prospective
tenants or their agents and to direct to Agent all prospective tenants and their agents,
and all brokers, and other persons or entities interested in leasing the Premises.
d. To cooperate with Agent and to permit Agent to conduct all negotiations and other
dealings with all prospective tenants and their agents. All tenants, lease terms, and
lease conditions shall be approved by Commission; with all leases to be signed by
Commission upon Commission's lease form.
e. Reasonable and customary expenses incurred by Agent in providing leasing services to
the Property shall be at Agent's sole cost and expense. [given that it is doubtful that lots
will lease, as opposed to sell, it seems to me that such costs should be dealt w/in the
listing agreement itself]
7. COMMISSION INDEMNIFICATION OF AGENT. Commission will indemnify, defend and
save Agent safe and harmless from all claims in connection with the Property and from liability for
damaged property and injuries to or death of any person, except in those cases where the damage to
property or injuries or death to persons is caused by, or contributed to, Agent's willful malfeasance, bad
faith, reckless disregard of duty or negligence.

Memorandum
To: Airport Commission and City Council
From: SteRoid.
Date: Decerflber 18, 2002
Re: Sale agreement, Aviation Commerce Park
In an effort to increase the prospects for generating income from the property known as
the Aviation Commerce Park, the Airport Commission has suggested to the Council that
the realtor should have the option of selling or leasing the 17 commercial lots. The
Council indicated they were receptive to that idea and the Commission has been
working towards meeting the requirements to sell the property. An agreement to lease
the property has been in place for the last several months.
Before the property can be sold, a waiver needs to be obtained from the Federal
Aviation Administration. This is required because of the assurances attached to the
grants received from the FAA. An application for a waiver has been sent to the FAA and
was discussed with them at a meeting on December 4. They requested additional
information and this has been forwarded to them. If there are no other concerns from
the FAA, the waiver should be issued in the next few weeks.
The agreement for consideration by the Commission and Council would allow for sale or
lease of the property. If the property were to be leased, all transactions would be the
responsibility of the Airport Commission. If the offer were to buy the property, the
Council would have the final decision, after a recommendation from the Commission.
Details of the sales procedure are included as "Exhibit B" of the agreement.
We have reviewed the agreement and consider it in the best interest of the Council and
Commission to approve it. Having the flexibility to sell or lease the property should
provide the realtor with the competitive edge needed to market the property.
2. TERM. The term of this Agreement and Agent's employment, right and authority shall be
for 12 months from the last date affixed below.
6. ;ENT'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Agent hereby agrees as follows: .~

Steven Kanner
City Councilmember
630 S. Governor, #1
Iowa City, IA 52240
Dear Mr. Kanner,
Thank you for your letter inquiring about the use of the findings in the study that I conducted for the Iowa
Department of Transportation on the Iowa's air transportation industry. The newspaper article that you
enclosed contains the following statement regarding that research:
An Iowa Department of Transportation survey done in 2000 with Iowa State University shows
the Iowa City airport has a total economic impact in Johnson County of $'/7,882,347 a year.
(Cedar Rapids Gazette, Sunday, February 17, 2002, page 1D & SD)
That simple sentence contains several misinterpretations of our work and it misrepresents our
relationship with IDOT.
1. The study was not a survey, it was an input-output accounting of the Iowa economy in which air
transportation was assessed.
2. The study was conducted by Liesl Eathington and myself as private consultants to IDOT. That
research is not considered nor should it be considered an Iowa State University report or an
IDOT and an ISU collaboration.
3. We are very cautious about using "economic impact" as a conclusion for any of our findings -
there is an extended discussion about terminology and our intentions in the report.
4. Finally, the person quoted seriously mischaracterizes the research when he attributes the
economic values to the Iowa City airport.
To the point: our report studies the air transportation industry not just airports. The air transportation
industry as we defined it broadly in our study included
The total output of the air transportation services in the study areas would involve all private
and public gross sales of any air cargo, air carrier, air courier, letter or package delivery, air
taxis, air ambulances, and charter services utilizing airport facilities. Finally, we would add all
output that is associated with the physical operations of the airport or airports that are located in
the county of study. (my emphasis) Page 4.
An appendix to that study listed the exact industries that were summarized in our report.
As is readily evident there is a substantial amount of air transportation transactions that were measured
by our study for the county that are both beyond the operations and capacity of the local airport and
which represent a rich array of air transportation services demanded by citizens, institutions, and
commerce in Johnson Count~. This study would have identified, for example, carrier service ticket
sales originating in the county even though those tickets were used out of county. The students, staff,
and faculty of the University of Iowa are huge purchasers of commercial tickets. Most of those
arrangements would have been made locally. Those values count as air transportation services in the
county. This study would have identified the apportioned value of air transportation courier and cargo
services to the goods and services that residents in the area consumed and the goods and the services
that public and private institutions in the area produced. It is my guess that at least a preponderance, if
Page 2 February 22, 2002
not the majority, of air transportation economic activity that we identified in the Johnson County area is
facilitated via the commercial and cargo operations located in Cedar Rapids.
Our study did not look at the Iowa City airport nor draw conclusions about it. Our study looked at the
Johnson County air transportation economy, of which the Iowa City airport is a subset.
When we accounted for all of the air transportation industrial output in Johnson County for the study
year, it amounted to $11.1 million dollars. We estimated that those direct sales in air transportation
services, very broadly defined in our study, helped stimulate an additional $6.8 million in regional
industrial output either by firms supplying goods and services to the air transportation industry or
through the induced effects of workers spending their paychecks in the local economy. This is where
the $17.9 million figure quoted in the article comes from.
To reiterate, according to our estimates, the air transportation industry, which consists primarily of
commercial carrier ticket sales and cargo purchases, is responsible for $17.9 million in total industrial
output in the Johnson County economy via its direct output, its linkages with the rest of the supplying
industries in the region, and from the household spending of workers associated directly or indirectly
with the industry.
Finally, we usually restrict our use of the term "economic impact" to situations where we are clearly
discerning causality. The air transportation industry in general is a final household consumption good or
an intermediate good for commerce, institutions, and industry (notwithstanding the hyperbole following
the 9-11-01 disaster). We were careful in our report to not use the term economic impact when
describing our findings, and we take pains in our narrative to educate the users of our research as to
the proper manners to which our research should be put. Unfortunately, we cannot control how our
research is used either by advocates or detractors of an issue.
I hope that this has answered your concerns. You are certainly welcome to call me or write again if you
have questions,
Yours sincerely, ?
