As per our discussion Tuesday evening, I would like to formally request the City Council
collapse the second and third readings of the proposed amendment which would allow
small animal clinics in the COl office zone. This will allow us to proceed with the
purchase of the property located at 2122 ACT circle in a more timely manner.
Also, at this time I would like to withdraw my application for rezoning of the same

development on Lot 42. A Sensitive
Areas Site Plan will be required when
Outlot A is subdivided for development.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION_:
The applicant, Village Partners, is requesting final plat approval of Village Green, Part XIV, a
40.19 acre one-lot residential subdivision also containing one outlot. The preliminary plat and
OPDH plan for this property were approved by City Council on June 4, 1996. The OPDH plan
indicated that a total of eight dwelling units would be provided within three buildings arranged
around a private circle or loop street. The final OPDH plan must be filed and approved
administratively and does not require review by the Commission, however the final plat does
require approval by the Commission and City Council.
ANALYSIS:
The final plat appears to be in general conformance with the City's subdivision regulations.
It is also consistent with the approved preliminary plat and OPDH plan for this property. Legal
papers and construction drawings will have to be approved prior to Council consideration of
the final plat.
Sanitary Sewer: The City is currently designing the Scott Boulevard Trunk Sewer, that will
replace the Village Green force main and lift station. Construction of the sewer is currently
scheduled for the summer of 1997. The addition of these eight units will not significantly
affect the existing conditions at the existing Village Green force main and lift station, but
future platting and subdivisions within Village Green may encounter sewer capacity
constraints until the Scott Boulevard Trunk Sewer is constructed.
3
Storm Water Management: The existing wet-bottom storm water management basin located
to the north of this subdivision was designed to accomodate the development of this property.
Because of high water tables in this area, the legal papers for Village Green, Parts XII and XIII
contained requirements for a private tile system to drain the area to allow construction of
dwellings with basements. Similar stipulations should be included in the legal papers for this
final plat, also.
Future Development of Outlot A: Outlot A as shown on the plat encompasses all of the
remaining area within the Village Green development that has yet to be developed. It should
be noted that eventually street and trail connections between Village Green and Village Green
South will be required through this area. The preliminary plat for Village Green South and a
previous concept plan indicating the possible future layout of Outlot A both indicate that this
connection will occur directly south of Lot 42. The roadway connection is to intersect Village
Road at the same point as the western intersection of Compton Place and Village Road,
creating a four-way intersection at that point. The applicant has been asked to verify that the
location of the private roadway will allow for this alignment, and if not, the private roadway
should be adjusted accordingly. The alignment of the new roadway and Compton Place to
acheire a four-way intersection at this point will be required when the property south of Lot
42 is platted for development. To ensure street continuity staff recommends that the street
connecting Village Green and Village Green South be platted at the time there is any further
development proposed for Outlot A.
Neighborhood Open Space: When the preliminary plat for this subdivision was reviewed and
approved it was reported that the platting of Lot 42 required the dedication of 0.07 acres of
open space. it was recommended that fees be accepted in lieu of this dedication. However,
future dedication of open space for the continuation of the Village Green South trail and
parkway system may be more appropriate.
The preliminary plat for Village Green South included the dedication of a wide linear parkway
along the drainageway that runs from Village Green to the south through the Village Green
South development. This parkway is over 230 feet wide at the property line between the two
developments. An earlier concept plan for the future development of the area included in
Outlot A indicated that a 40 foot wide drainageway easement would be dedicated south of
Village Road, which would lead to this parkway (this is illustrated on the attached concept
plan). A trail connection to the trail system that is to be provided within the Village Green
South parkway was also shown. In April of 1993, the Parks and Recreation Commission,
while reviewing the proposed dedication of open space for Village Green South, indicated that
an extension of this parkway to the north onto the adjacent property was desirable, and that
staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission should pursue this possibility when this area
is platted. When future plats are considered for the remaining portions of Outlot A, staff
recommends that the possibility of additional public open space in this location be considered,
as a possibile extension of the Village Green South parkway. Rather than requiring fees in lieu
of open space as recommended at the time the preliminary plat was approved, staff
recommends that the legal papers for Village Green, Part XIV specify that the required 0.07
acres of open space required for Lot 42 be dedicated at the time of further subdivision of
Outlot A. A total of .85 acres of dedicated open space will be required for the development
of the remaining 37.10 acre Outlot A, meaning that a .92 acre area of open space could be
provided along this drainageway.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that SUB96-0016, a request for final plat approval of Village Green, Part
XIV, a one-lot residential subdivision with one outlot located north of Village Road, east of
Oxford Place, be approved, subject to the approval of legal papers and construction drawings
prior to Council consideration of the final plat.

MEMORANDUM
Date: August 22, 1996
To: City Council
From: Martin Haynes, Chair
Design Review Committee
Re: Courtesy Review of the Design Plans for 315 E. College Street
At its special meeting of August 12, 1996, the Design Review Committee held a courtesy
review of the design plans for 315 E. College Street. Given that the review was a
courtesy review, the Committee is not forwarding a formal recommendation but is
forwarding some general comments regarding the project's design.
The Committee would like to first commend Mr. Clark for making efforts to make the
building more compatible with surrounding buildings. Though this building contains many
of the same design features of the developer's building on Burlington Street, the
Committee finds that this building's overall design is more successful. The sky lit internal
corridor at the retail level is an interesting concept. The Committee appreciates the work
the developer and his architect have put into the project. The Committee offers the
following comments which we believe would have improved the design of the project as it
relates to its surroundings:
The relationship of the first floor businesses to the street could be enhanced along
the Gilbert Street side of the building by having the businesses at or closer to street
level rather than approximately six feet above street level at the southeast corner of
the building. This configuration also limits wheelchair access to the first level retail.
The Committee, however, understands the applicant's desire to have subsurface
parking on the site and the difficulties this creates to place the first floor
commercial at street level.
More relief and architectural interest could be provided to the mass of the building
along College Street by setting back or bringing forward the exterior walls of the
building. The quions and brick detailing on the facade will do little to mitigate the
mass of the building.
The steps along Gilbert Street are narrow in relationship to the facade of the
building. The Committee encourages the applicant to widen the steps to better
match the scale of the building and to improve access.
Small bushes along the six foot high wall along Gilbert Street are out of proportion
to the wall. The Committee encourages the applicant to provide landscaping along
Gilbert Street that better matches the scale of the wall and also creates a buffer for
pedestrians.
The Committee finds the placement of mechanical equipment and drainage systems
(e.g. air-conditioning condensers and down spouts) on the front facades of buildings
as unnecessary distractions from the design of the building. The Committee hopes
that future designs of downtown buildings will find more creative solutions in
designing these elements into the project.
The Committee would like to thank the City Council and Mr. Clark for providing us with the
opportunity to review the design plans for 315 E. College Street. A representative will be
at your August 26, 1996, work session, to answer any questions you may have regarding
our comments.

Re:
Fifth and Final Round of Staff-Conducted Negotiatioqs Between City of Iowa City and
Elks Country Club and Golf Course
Dear Chuck and Members of the Elks Negotiating Committee:
This letter shall represent the results of our third negotiating session, held in the EIk's Golf and
Country Club on August 16, 1996. Thic ic still not intended to boa fin31, edited form, 5'-'t
rathor docigned to be a working document.
1. Combination Lease and Sale of Land for two (2) golf holes
Elks and City agree that if money must be returned to HUD for a portion of the
land purchased with flood hazard mitigation monies, the Elks Club will pay all
such monies.
Sale. The upper portion of the area delineated on the attached topographical
diagram will be sold to Elks Club for the sum of $226,800.00, which amount
represents the number of acres times the $15,000/acre which the City paid for
said upper land, i.e. 15.12 acres X $15,000 = $226,800. Said amount shall be
payable to the City in three (3) two (2) equal installments on June ~o" ..... 1,
1997, June 1, 1998 and June 1, 1999, aP, d--1-888, without interest, for a total
payment for the land sold to Elks Club of $226,800. Additionally, all of the good
stewardship requirements which the City now has to protect the Iowa City Water
Supply & Treatment Facility, including the raw water supply, shall become a
covenant running with the land in perpetuity, and the City's sale of said 15.12
acres to Elks shall be conditional upon inclusion in the conveyance documents
that Elks Club shall abide by good stewardship principles of protecting the
groundwater and wetlands on said upper land, together with the promise of
limited use of pesticides, all of which good stewardship principles shall also be
imposed on the land now owned by the City but which will be sold for private
development. Parties understand that the two golf holes will be constructed on
a combination of both the leasehold area and the land sold to the Elks.
Lease. The remaining lower portion of the land shown in the attached diagram,
or approximately 7.13 acres, shall be leased to Elks Club for $1 per year in a
long-term lease of 99 years, with renewal for an additional 50 years. This lease
shall grant a right for use by the Elks Club expressly and exclusively for two (2)

golf course holes and golf cart pathways only. and shall not be used for any
other golf course purposes.
Sale and lease areas. The City understands that in order to operate and
maintain a viable golf course, that some chemicals must be used for pest control
and weed control, as well as fungus control. To this end, Elks Club agrees that
its use of chemicals may include organic fertilizer and pesticides (which under
state law include fungicides), but that Elks Club's use of pesticides on both the
leased area and the conveyed land must first be approved by the City including
frequency of application and amounts -- all in accordance with the attached
Application Schedule. Elks Club and City also agree that any deviations from this
Application Schedule must first be approved, in writing, by the City, and shall
only be permitted under unusual and extraordinary circumstances.
Elks Club acknowledges that the City shall have the right to monitor and
inspect application of any such chemicals to the two golf course holes,
but the City shall not have an obligation to monitor or inspect the two
golf holes. Elks Club acknowledges that it shall have all responsibility
for proper application and use of pesticides as defined by state and
federal law, and that Elks Club will provide access to all Elks Club
records relating to chemical application of pesticides, and will do so
within a reasonable time after the City's written request.
ii.
The City shall have the dght to suspend Elks Club use of chemicals on
the two golf course holes at any time the City determines, in the City's
view and based on reasonable evidence, that the operation or use of
chemicals on the golf course holes presents an imminent danger to the
public health. After attempts have been made by Elks Club to correct and
identify problems, the City still retains the dght to temporarily suspend
Elks Club's use of the two golf course holes upon the City's determina-
tion, based on reasonable evidence, that the operation or use of the
golf course holes presents an imminent danger to the public health. The
City agrees to make reasonable efforts at prior notice before exercising
the City's right to suspend Elks Club use of chemicals and/or suspend
Elks Club use of the two golf holes, but the City retains the right, based
on reasonable evidence, to both summarily suspend chemical use
and/or suspend Elks Club use of the two golf holes if deemed by the City
to be in the interests of public health and safety.
iii.
Cross indemnity provisions: The Elks Club agrees, in order to assure the
City against potential liability, to indemnify the City for the Elk Club's
negligent application or use of pesticides or chemicals and/or negligent
management of the golf course holes in the leasehold area. Similarly,
the City agrees to indemnify the Elks Club against the City's negligent
operation of its Iowa City Water Supply and Treatment Facilities,
including use of the well access road.
Charles A. Mullen
August 19, 1996
Page 3
The leasehold interests reflecting both the two golf holes and the well
access road shall be memorialized into one (1) leasehold document and
be approved by attorneys for both parties.
vi.
In the event the Elks Club terminates use of the conveyed land as golf
holes or no longer owns the Elks Club land, then the restrictions on use
of pesticides will be no more restrictive than those covenants placed on
the land on the upper terrace of +90 acres to be sold by the City for
private development and the obligations for the well access lease shall
continue for the full 99 year lease term, and be fulfilled by Elks Club's
successors and assigns.
2. Well Access Road - Reciprocal Lease
Elks Club agrees to lease to the City a 30-foot wide well access road, which will also
be a public recreational trail and shall serve as a road only for authorized vehicular
travel by City and utility vehicles and Elks Club vehicles and be approximately 3,000
feet in length. In return, the City will replace the existing Elks Club pump and pump
house to a more suitable location and to a standard sufficient to operate at the existing
pump house's capacity. This City leasehold interest in the well access road shall be on
terms comparable to the leasehold of the golf holes to the Elks Club, namely that 1) the
term of years will be 99 years with a renewal option of an additional 50 years; c~d 2)
in the event the City terminates Elks Club's use of the two golf holes, that the City's
lease for the well access road shall also terminate; and 3) if Elks Club ceases to use
the two golf holes for golf course purposes, Elks nonetheless agrees that Elks
Club's successors and assigns in interest shall be obligated to fulfill the full 99
year lease term for the well access road. Additionally, the City agrees to install
some security device to deter unauthorized vehicular traffic from using the well access
road. In return for this well access road, the City agrees to pay a maintenance fee of
$1,000 per month for so long as the reciprocal lease agreement for the two golf holes

temporary easements in the future without additional consideration and as noted
above in I~ 3.
The City agrees that the paving of the fixed alignment of Foster Road Extended
