Comprehensive Plan: The Northeast District Plan identifies this
area as a predominately single-family
neighborhood, with the potential for larger
estate lots, duplexes, and zero-lot line
dwellings to be integrated into the larger
neighborhood.
File Date: September 25, 2003
45 Day Limitation Period: November 9, 2003
60 Day Limitation Period: November 24, 2003
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The preliminary plat for the Lindemann Subdivision was approved in February, 2002. The
preliminary plat for the larger subdivisions consists of 262 residential lots, with a north-south
greenway / trail / drainageway bisecting the neighborhood. A total of 62 lots have been final-platted
in the first two final plats of the Lindemann Subdivision; Lindemann Subdivision Path Three is the
continuation of this development.
ANALYSIS:
Lindemann Subdivision Part 2A: The purpose of establishing the four outlots in this subdivision is
related to how the applicant is purchasing the property from the Lindemann family in parcels
described by these outlots. Outlot E establishes the north boundary of Lindemann Subdivision Part
3; Outlot F establishes the area for Lindemann Subdivision Part 4; and Outlot G is the remaining
area associated with the Lindemann Subdivision Preliminary Plat. The establishment of these
outlots will allow these parcels to be purchased as separate parcels.
Subdivision Design for Lindemann Subdivision Parts 3 and 4: The final plats are in general
conformance with the preliminary plat and the City's subdivision regulations. Staff is reviewing
construction plans and legal papers which accompany the final plats. Construction plans and legal
papers must be approved by staff prior to City Council consideration of the final plat.
One issue staff has identified is that the streets in Lindemann Subdivision Part 4 do not extend all
the way through Outlot L, an outlot set aside for future development. While it is not normally
required for streets to be required to extend through outlots set aside for future development, in this
case, there is the potential for Outlot G to be sold or transferred to a property owner other than
Southgate Development, and would need access to be developable. To address this concern, the
applicant has agreed to state in the legal papers that Southgate Development is responsible for
dedicating the right-of-way and constructing the infrastructure in Outlot L upon it's development,
generally consistent with the approved preliminary plat, or upon the development of what is
described as Outlot G.
Conditional Zoning Agreement: The Conditional Zoning Agreement for this property contains
standards for certain design elements of the Lindemann Subdivisions. These design elements
include:
\\citynt\jyapp$\subdivisions\Lindemann Part 3.doc
3
1. The construction of a tra# and greenway corridor along the drainageway / wetland system that
bisects the properly.
The trail and greenway corridor are identified on the plat, in accordance with the preliminary
plat. Outlots I and J will become part of the greenway. The trail will need to be shown in the
construction plans.
2. ff a sewer easement is extended parallel to the rear lot lines of properties fronting on
Hummingbird Lane, one-half of the easement shaft be within the rear yards of the properties
fronting on Hummingbird Lane, and one-haft of the easement will be in the subject property.
This sewer easement is shown as required.
3. Prior to any final plats being approved for the property north of the midway point between Court
Street and Lower west Branch Road, the reconstruction of Lower West Branch Road must be
within a funded year in Iowa City's Capital Improvements Program. Additionally, prior to any
plats or development being approved for the property north of the midway point between Lower
West Branch Road and Court Street, the Owner Applicant agree to contribute funds to City for
the reconstruction of Lower West Branch Road. The Owners and Applicant agree that the
amount of funds to be contributed to City for the reconstruction of Lower West Branch Road is
$217,500, including $31,755 for the area to be rezoned RS-5, and $185, 745 for the area to be
rezoned RS-& The funds to be paid to City for the reconstruction of Lower West Branch Road
may be paid on a per-acre basis, as part of final plat approval....
With the approved preliminary plat, the 'midpoint between Court Street and Lower West Branch
Road' is further defined by a note that states "Prior to final plat approval for Lots 56 through 67
and 188 through 261 [according to lot numbers in the preliminary plat], the reconstruction of
Lower West Branch Road must be in a funded year in the City's Capital Improvement
Program."
The lots proposed for final platting in Lindemann Subdivision Part 4 are the last lots that can be
subdivided before the requirement for financial contributions toward the reconstruction of Lower
West Branch Road is triggered. The reconstruction of Lower West Branch Road is currently in a
funded year, FY07, in the City's Capital Improvements Program.
Tap-on fees: A watermain extension fee of $395 per acre will be required. A sanitary sewer tap-
on fee of $1,263 will be required, based on the accepted bid, design fees, and other associated
costs of the project to extend sanitary sewer to the north. This City project will occur this fall.
Outlot K: Outlot K, from information provided in the preliminary plat, is intended to function as a
drainage and sanitary sewer construction access easement, as well as a walkway to Scott Park
Drive / Hummingbird Lane. The subdivider is installing the trail and walkway; the City will maintain it
upon it's dedication to the City.
Outlot D: Outlot D is a walkway to the property to the east, that will connect to a private trail behind
the condominiums on the west side of Manchester Lane. Because this is a pdvate trail system
(open to the public but privately maintained), it is proposed Outlot D will be private. When
discussing the preliminary plat, the Parks and Recreation Commission agreed to accept the main
greenway and Outlot K as public, but not Outlot D.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Shelley McCafferty, Associate Planner
DATE: October 31, 2003
RE: SUB03-00036, Wild Prairie Estates Part 5
Upon further evaluation, staff has determined that providing a connection to the future
extension of Willow Creek Trail between lots 133 and 134, or between any other
nearby lots is not practical due to steep topography. The proposed trail connection
would not meet accessibility standards and would require extensive grading.
The applicant has agreed to extend Wild Prairie Drive to the northwest corner of Outlot
C as recommended by staff, and provide a temporary turn-a-round at this termination.
Staff recommends that REZ03-00036, a preliminary plat for Wild Prairie Estates Part 5,
a 25.79-acre, 35-1ot subdivision located at Wild Prairie Drive and Prairie Grass Lane,
be approved.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The applicant, Kennedy-Hilgenberg Enterprises, is requesting approval of a Preliminary Plat for
Wild Prairie Estates Part 5, a 25.79 acre, 35-1ot residential subdivision located at Wild Prairie
Drive and Prairie Grass Lane. This development would allow the construction of 35 single-family
dwellings with three outlots. Outlot A is reserved for future development and Outlots B and C will
be dedicated to the City.
ANALYSIS:
Conditional Zoning Agreement: When this property was annexed and rezoned, it was done
subject to a conditional zoning agreement (CZA). These conditions had to do with the timing of
the development of the property with respect to planned improvements to Rohret Road and the
Westside Trunk Sewer (both of these projects have been completed). The CZA requires the
owner to pay the pro rata share of the cost to upgrade the Westside Trunk Sewer, which is $700
per acre.
Subdivision design: The subdivision as submitted generally complies with the subdivision and
zoning code. It consists of 35 single-family lots and three outlots. The single-family lots range
in size from 10,572 square feet to 27,460 square feet, with one lot of 110,127 square feet. This
large lot, Lot 110, is also laid out as a "flag" lot. Flag lots are generally not acceptable because
they typically do not comply with the street frontage requirement of the subdivision regulations,
they can be difficult for emergency vehicles to locate, and they reduce the privacy of the lots
located in front of them. However, this lot does comply with the subdivision regulations as it
has 60 feet of frontage on a public street. In order to ensure that any building constructed on
this lot does not encroach on the privacy of the adjacent lots, a 40-foot easement along the
west and south property lines is provided. Adequate signage will be required at the intersection
of Wild Prairie Drive and the driveway to Lot 110 to ensure this property may be easily located
by emergency vehicles.
The applicant is proposing that Wild Prairie Drive be terminated at the south boundary of
proposed outlots. City policy typically requires that new streets be extended to the edge of a
subdivision. In this case, the Johnson County Poor Farm Planing Study calls for the property
directly to the north of Wild Prairie Estates to be a parkland reserve. Therefore, staff feels that
Wild Prairie Drive need not be extended to the north property line. However, based on similar
conditions in other subdivisions, the location of the proposed termination will likely result in
erosion of the area north of this termination. Staff is recommending that if Outlot A is to be
developed in the future, that Wild Prairie Drive be extended to the northwest corner of Outlot C.
Termination at this location will allow an inlet to be constructed at the Iow point of Wild Prairie
Drive and prevent erosion of the stream corridor. This extension will also provide the necessary
access to the outlots that are to be dedicated to the City.
Neighborhood Open Space: At time that Part 3 of Wild Prairie Estates was subdivided, the
Parks and Recreation Commission, and the Planning and Zoning Commission agreed to accept
open space along the Willow Creek corridor when the north portion of Wild Prairie Estates is
subdivided. Outlots B and C includes the Willow Creek corridor and will be dedicated to the City.
This open space will allow for an extension of the trail and the Willow Creek greenway system.
Trail Connections: The Willow Creek trail provides connection from the neighborhoods to West
High School, Walden Square commercial area, Willow Creek Park and Kiwanis Park. During the
Southwest District planning process with residents of this area, it was identified that: "Trails, wide
sidewalks, and bicycle lanes are viewed as important transportation links to neighborhood
destinations;" and "With regards to parks, opens space and trails, there is overwhelming support
for creating an interconnected system of neighborhood and regional parks throughout the district."
To comply with the Comprehensive Plan, staff recommends that Outlot B be extended to include
the 20-foot sanitary sewer easement between Lots 133 and 134 to allow for public access to
Willow Creek Trail from this neighborhood. In addition to the extension of Outlot B, the applicant
should construct the 10-foot trail connection from the street to the rear lot line of Lots 133 and
134.
Sensitive Areas Site Plan: A Sensitive Areas Site Plan is required due to the presence of the
stream corridor. This plan should delineate the stream corridor and buffer required by the
Sensitive Areas Ordinance.
Water/sewer extension fees: A water main extension fee of $395 per acre will be required for
this development. A sanitary sewer tap-on fee at a rate of approximately $700 per acre will also
required and will need to be addressed in the legal papers for the final plat.
Storm water management: Storm water management will be provided on Outlot B, which is to
be dedicated to the City. Stormwater from the northern portion of Wild Prairies Estates Part 4 will
also be retained in this basin.
Summary:
Staff feels that this preliminary plat will comply with the subdivision regulations and the
Comprehensive Plan if a connection is provide to the future extension of the Willow Creek Trail
and Wild Prairie Drive is extended to the northwest corner of Outlot C.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that REZ03-00036, a preliminary plat for Wild Prairie Estates Part 5, a 25.79-
acre, 35-1ot subdivision located at Wild Prairie Drive and Prairie Grass Lane, be approved subject
to resolution of the deficiencies and discrepancies listed below.
DEFFICIENCIES AND DISCREPENCIES:
1. Extension of Outlot B between Lots 133 and 134.
2. Construction of a 10-foot trail connection from Columbine Court to the rear property lines
of Lots 133 and 134.
3. Extension of Wild Prairie Drive to the northwest corner of Outlot C

EARTH TECH'S RESPONSIBILITIES
A. Project Description
The Mormon Trek Boulevard Extension Phase ~I project consists of a drainage study update for
Willow Creek and the final design of two (2) reinforced concrete box culverts. The box culverts will
be in accordance with the Hydrologic and Hydraulic Analysis of Willow Creek completed by the City
in February, 2001, unless modified as part of this project.
The project also includes preliminary and final design of the Mormon Trek Boulevard roadway
between the west property line of the airport and Riverside Drive, a distance of approximately 2,600
feet. The roadway will be designed in accordance with the City of Iowa City's Arterial Street
Standards and will include a 3-lane roadway and turn lanes as appropriate. The design will also
include an 8-foot sidewalk on one side of the roadway and a 4-foot sidewalk on the opposite side.
B. Scope
Services to be provided for the project under this Agreement include design survey, base mapping, soil
borings and geotechnical engineering, the further refinement of existing design alternatives,
preparation ora concept statement, cultural resource reviews, preliminary design and drainage study
analysis, environmental documentation, final design, preparation of plans in a format suitable for
letting and construction-related services. The two RCB culverts will be packaged in a single
construction contract and will be let through the Iowa DOT. The roadway project will be prepared as
a separate construction project, in a format to be let by the City of Iowa City. The scope of services is
defined as follows:
I. Survey and Base Mapping
Task 1. Field Reconnaissance. This task includes review of the project corridor in the field. The
purpose of this review will be to become more familiar with features in the corridor and examine the
current preferred alignment. Photos of the corridor will be taken during the field review.
Task 2. Property Owner Contacts. Property owners will be contacted by telephone prior to
initiating survey activities on their property. A log of property owner contacts will be kept.
Task 3. Survey and Base Mapping. This task includes field surveys and base mapping which are
required during the design phase of the project. Aerial planime~¢ mapping and digital terrain
modeling has already been completed by Aerial Services, Inc., utilizing the flight flown in the spring
of 2001. Supplemental surveys will be needed for this project. The following specific tasks are
included:
Task 3a - Supplemental Design Survey. Additional design survey will be obtained for
driveways, drainageways, side road connections, airport facilities and other features which are
not picked up on the aerial mapping or wherever accuracy of data is critical.
Task 3b - Locate Soil Borings. Soil borings will be located in the field, tied into the
baseline and surface elevations will be obtained.
Task 3c - Property Corner Surveys. Selected property comers will be obtained in the field,
as needed, to determine existing right-of-way lines. Existing property lines will be drawn on
the base mapping.
Task 3d - Utility Surveys. Utility accesses will be opened and measured in the field.
Utilities to be researched include field tiles (where records are available from property
owners), sanitary sewer, storm sewer, electric, gas, water, telephone, cable television and fiber
optic lines.
Task 4. Survey Note Reduction and Base Mapping D~,t,. This task consists of entering the new
topographic features and digital terrain model (DT1V0'into the computer-aided design and drafting
(CADD) system and obtaining a set of plots. The additional survey data will be merged into the
digital aerial mapping obtained for this project. Cross sections will be plotted from the DTM.
Property lines and owners names, as determined from Johnson County Auditor's records, will be
plotted on the base map. Existing utilities and existing utility easements will be plotted from utility
records and courthouse records, and from above-ground features located in the field.

principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bond, for the purpose of all other
matters with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to
such Bonds, and for all other purposes whatsoever (except for the giving of certain
Bondholder consents, in accordance with the practices and procedures of DTC as may be
applicable thereto). The Paying Agent shall pay all principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of the Bondholders as shown on the
Registration Books, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and
discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the Bonds to the extent so paid. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Resolution to the contrary (including without limitation those provisions relating to the
surrender of Bonds, registration thereof, and issuance in Authorized Denominations), as
long as the Bonds are Depository Bonds, full effect shall be given to the Representation
Letter and the procedures and practices of DTC thereunder, and the Paying Agent shall
comply therewith.

Issuer shall (A) designate a satisfactory substitute depository as set forth below or, if a
satisfactory substitute is not found, (B) provide for the exchange of Depository Bonds for
replacement Bonds in Authorized Denominations.
(d) If the Issuer determines to provide for the exchange of Depository Bonds
for Bonds in Authorized Denominations, the Issuer shall so notify the Paying Agent and
shall provide the Registrar with a supply of executed unauthenticated Bonds to be so
exchanged. The Registrar shall thereupon notify the owners of the Bonds and provide for
such exchange, and to the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the
transferee by the owners, the Bonds will be delivered in appropriate form, content and
Authorized Denominations to the Beneficial Owners, as their interests appear.
(e) Any substitute depository shall be designated in writing by the Issuer to the
Paying Agent. Any such substitute depository shall be a qualified and registered "clearing
agency" as provided in Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The substitute depository shall provide for (i) immobilization of the Depository Bonds,
-10-
(ii) registration and transfer of interests in Depository Bonds by book entries made on
records of the depository or its nominee and (iii) payment of principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with and as such interests may appear with
respect to such book entries.

Delivery; and Cancellation.

subject to the provisions for registration and transfer contained in the Bonds and in this
Resolution.

surrender thereof at the office of the Registrar together with an assignment duly executed
by the holder or his duly authorized attorney in fact in such form as shall be satisfactory to
the Registrar, along with the address and social security number or federal employer
identification number of such transferee (or, if registration is to be made in the name of
multiple individuals, of all such transferees). In the event that the address of the
registered owner of a Bond (other than a registered owner which is the nominee of the
broker or dealer in question) is that of a broker or dealer, there must be disclosed on the
Registration Books the information pertaining to the registered owner required above.
Upon the transfer of any such Bond, a new fully registered Bond, of any denomination or
denominations permitted by this Resolution in aggregate principal amount equal to the
unmatured and unredeemed principal amount of such transferred fully registered Bond,
and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date or dates shall be
delivered by the Registrar.
(c) Registration of Transferred Bonds. In all cases of the transfer of the Bonds,
the Registrar shall register, at the earliest practicable time, on the Registration Books, the
Bonds, in accordance with the provisions of this Resolution.
(d) Ownership. As to any Bond, the person in whose name the ownership of the
same shall be registered on the Registration Books of the Registrar shall be deemed and
-11-
regarded as the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of or on account of
the principal of any such Bonds and the premium, if any, and interest thereon shall be
made only to or upon the order of the registered owner thereof or his legal representative.
All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon
such Bond, including the interest thereon, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(e) Cancellation. All Bonds which have been redeemed shall not be reissued but
shall be cancelled by the Registrar. All Bonds which are cancelled by the Registrar shall
be destroyed and a certificate of the destruction thereof shall be furnished promptly to the
Issuer; provided that if the Issuer shall so direct, the Registrar shall forward the cancelled
Bonds to the Issuer.
(f) Non-Presentment of Bonds. In the event any payment check representing
payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds is retumed to the Paying Agent or if any
bond is not presented for payment of principal at the maturity or redemption date, if funds
sufficient to pay such principal of or interest on Bonds shall have been made available to
the Paying Agent for the benefit of the owner thereof, all liability of the Issuer to the
owner thereof for such interest or payment of such Bonds shall forthwith cease, terminate
and be completely discharged, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Paying Agent to
hold such funds, without liability for interest thereon, for the benefit of the owner of such
Bonds who shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any claim of
whatever nature on his part under this Resolution or on, or with respect to, such interest or
Bonds. The Paying Agent's obligation to hold such funds shall continue for a period
equal to two years and six months following the date on which such interest or principal
became due, whether at maturity, or at the date fixed for redemption thereof, or otherwise,
at which time the Paying Agent, shall surrender any remaining funds so held to the Issuer,
whereupon any claim under this Resolution by the Owners of such interest or Bonds of
whatever nature shall be made upon the Issuer.
(g) Registration and Transfer Fees. The Registrar may furnish to each owner, at
the Issuer's expense, one bond for each annual maturity. The Registrar shall furnish
additional bonds in lesser denominations (but not less than the minimum denomination)
to an owner who so requests.

outstanding Bond shall become mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Issuer shall
at the request of Registrar authenticate and deliver a new Bond of like tenor and amount
as the Bond so mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost, in exchange and substitution for such
mutilated Bond to Registrar, upon surrender of such mutilated Bond, or in lieu of and
substitution for the Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon filing with the Registrar evidence
-12-
satisfactory to the Registrar and Issuer that such Bond has been destroyed, stolen or lost
and proof of ownership thereof, and upon furnishing the Registrar and Issuer with
satisfactory indemnity and complying with such other reasonable regulations as the Issuer
or its agent may prescribe and paying such expenses as the Issuer may incur in connection
therewith.
Section 10. Record Date. Payments of principal and interest, otherwise than upon
full redemption, made in respect of any Bond, shall be made to the registered holder
thereof or to their designated agent as the same appear on the books of the Registrar on
the 15th day preceding the payment date. All such payments shall fully discharge the
obligations of the Issuer in respect of such Bonds to the extent of the payments so made.
Payment of principal shall only be made upon surrender of the Bond to the Paying Agent.
Section 11. Execution, Authentication and Delivery_ of the Bonds. Upon the
adoption of this Resolution, the Mayor and Clerk shall execute and deliver the Bonds to
the Registrar, who shall authenticate the Bonds and deliver the same to or upon order of
the Purchaser. No Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or shall be entitled to
any right or benefit hereunder unless the Registrar shall duly endorse and execute on such
Bond a Certificate of Authentication substantially in the form of the Certificate herein set
forth. Such Certificate upon any Bond executed on behalf of the Issuer shall be
conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenticated has been duly issued under this
Resolution and that the holder thereof is entitled to the benefits of this Resolution.
