Requested action: Final plat approval
Purpose: To create a 15-lot residential

Location: Scott Park Drive and Hummingbird
Lane
Size: 7.36 acres
Existing land use and zoning: Vacant, RS-5 and RM-12
Surrounding land use and zoning: North: Residential, County RS

Comprehensive Plan: Northeast District Plan - Single-family
residential and multi-family residential
Applicable Code requirements: Chapter 14-7, Land Subdivisions
File date: November 24, 1999
45-day limitation period: January 8, 2000
60-day limitation period: January 23, 2000
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The applicant, Plum Grove Acres, is requesting a final plat of Scott Boulevard East, Part Four,
a 7.36 acre, 15-lot residential subdivision with one outlot located at Scott Park Drive and
Hummingbird Lane. The preliminary plat for this property was approved earlier this year.
ANALYSIS:
The proposed final plat appears to be in general conformance with the City's Subdivision
regulations and the approved preliminary plat for this property, with a few exceptions. A
revised plat has been submitted and is being reviewed to determine whether these items have
been taken care of. Staff recommends deferral pending the resolution of these items. Legal
papers are being reviewed and must be approved prior to City Council consideration of the
plat. The construction drawings for this area were submitted and approved at the time that
Part Three of this subdivision was approved.
The proposed plat includes 12 single-family residential lots and three lots zoned RM-12, Low
Density Multi-Family Residential. The plat also includes an outlot that will allow for a
pedestrian connection from the corner of Scott Park Drive and Hummingbird Lane to the east
when the adjacent property is developed. This was required at the time of annexation and
rezoning in lieu of a street connection across this property. This dedication is not to count
toward the Neighborhood Open Space requirements for this plat, but is rather considered a
part of the necessary infrastructure to help assure that there will be adequate pedestrian
circulation for this area.
Along with the preliminary plat, a tree protection plan was approved for lots 79 and 80, as
required by the conditional zoning agreement for this property. This plan should be
referenced in the legal papers in some manner as a means of assuring that whoever is
building on the property is aware of the plan.
Neighborhood Open Space: A total of .24 acres of open space is required for this plat under
the Neighborhood Open Space Ordinance. As noted'at the time of preliminary plat review,
staff recommends that fees in lieu of the actual dedication of land be required in this case.
The Parks and Recreation Commission also recommends that fees be accepted rather than
dedicated open space.
Water/Sewer Extension Fees: A water main extension fee of $395 per acre will be required
as a result of this plat.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that SUB99-0027, be deferred pending the resolution of deficiencies and
discrepancies identified on the plat. Upon resolution of these items, staff recommends that
the request for a final plat of Scott Boulevard East, Part Four, a 7.36 acre, 15-lot residential
subdivision with one outlot located at Scott Park Drive and Hummingbird Lane, be approved,
subject to the approval of legal papers prior to City Council consideration of the plat.
DEFICIENCIES AND DISCREPANCIES:
1. The legal description appears to be in error.
2. The sanitary sewer easement along the west property line is not consistent with other
approved plans for this area.

RESOLUTION NO. 00-26
RESOLUTION TO PRESCRIBE A PROCEDURE TO WAIVE THE APPRAISAL
IN CASES INVOLVING THE ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY WITH A LOW FAIR
MARKET VALUE FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS THAT MAY
ENTAIL CONDEMNATION.
WHEREAS, the Iowa General Assembly recently enacted House File 476, which amends Chapter
6B of the Iowa Code to revise aspects of the law relating to the condemnation of private property
for public improvement projects; and
WHEREAS, Section 6B.54(2) of the Iowa Code, as amended by HF 476, provides that an
acquiring agency may prescribe a procedure to waive the requirement for an appraisal "in cases
involving the acquisition of property with a low fair market value"; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IOWA CITY,
IOWA, THAT
The procedure to waive the requirement for an appraisal under Chapter 6B of the Iowa Code shall
be as follows:
Section One. Definitions
For purposes of this resolution, the following terms shall have the following definitions:
Appraisal means a written report, provided by an appraiser in conformance with the
Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), indicating the fair market
value to be paid for the acquisition or taking of private property, and/or of the damages to
be paid for the acquisition or taking of an interest in private property or of a part of such
property.
Compensation Estimate means a valuation, prepared by a person generally
knowledgeable of land values, indicating the fair market value for the acquisition or taking
of private property, and/or of the damages for the acquisition or taking of an interest in
private property or of a part of such property. A compensation estimate is not an
appraisal.
Low Fair Market Value means that the acquisition is estimated to have a fair market
value of $10,000 or less, exclusive of payments for the cost of tillage, fertilizer, growing
crops, agricultural right-of-way fence, and legislated $5/lineal foot of lengthened residential
driveway, as determined by a review of available market data.
Resolution No. 00-26
Page 2
Section Two. When Appraisals Are To Be Obtained
For all acquisitions other than those of low market value, the valuation of the property or
property interest to be acquired shall be determined by an appraisal.
Section Three. Compensation Estimate in Lieu of Appraisal
When it reasonably appears that an acquisition parcel or an interest in an acquisition
parcel is likely to be of low market value, the valuation of that property or property interest
may be determined by a compensation estimate in lieu of an appraisal. If the estimate of
compensation obtained indicates that just compensation for that property or property
interest is in excess of low market value, then an appraisal shall be obtained for that
property or property interest.

Under the provisions of Sections 6B.2A and 6B.2B of the Iowa Code, a governmental body
which proposes to acquire property rights under power of eminent domain for a public
improvement project is required to give notice of intent to commence the project to all
property owners whose properties may be affected.
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT; INTENDED USE OF PRIVATE
PROPERTY WHICH MAY BE ACQUIRED.
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to the above-identified property owners that the City
Council of the City of Iowa City will consider authorizing the commencement of a project to
construct the Near Southside Transportation Center on the half block of Block 102 of the
Original Town of Iowa City, Iowa, which is bordered by Burlington Street on the north,
Dubuque Street on the east, Court Street on the south, and the Block 102 north-south alley on
the west, which project is to be known as the Near Southside Transportation Center.
Property rights acquired for the project will be used for construction of the facility in its
entirety, and for temporary storage of construction materials and equipment and for staging of
construction activities.
2. PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS MAY 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 fee simple parcel
(complete ownership), including the leased fee and leasehold interests, construction easement
and/or a permanent easement. Upon review of Johnson County property records, 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 the documentation
which is now on file in the office of the City Clerk and available for public viewing.
3. CITY PROCESS TO DECIDE TO PROCEED WITH THE PROJECT AND TO
ACQUIRE PROPERTY RIGHTS; CITY COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED TO
PROCEED WITH PROJECT; OPPORTUNITY FOR PUBLIC INPUT.
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 for the project now indicates 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 proceed with the above-described project and to acquire property
rights, 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 project, and regarding
the proposed acquisition of property rights for the project. The public hearing will be held
on the 7th day of March, 1999 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
proceed with the above-described project and commence the acquisition of property rights for
the project, the City Council will be required to approve the project and authorize acquisition
3
of private property rights for the project by Council resolution. The City Council is scheduled
to consider adoption of a resolution of the City's intent to proceed with 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 property. 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 rights by condemnation.
4. STATUS OF PROJECT PLANNING.
The concept of the Near Southside Transportation Center originated in the Near Southside
Neighborhood Redevelopmerit Plan which was adopted by the City Council in 1992. The
zoning ordinance changes for the area which were subsequently approved by the City
Council are predicated on the City providing public parking in order to foster the high density ~
of development which is desired. The Plan calls for a multi-modal transportation system in
the Near Southside where owning an automobile is not a necessity. These planning concepts
fit nicely with the Federal Transit Administration's Livable Communities Initiative, and an
application was made for a transportation center several years ago. The City has carded this
project forward in its planning documents in subsequent years, and was able to secure a
commitment for funding from FTA for a 3-year project beginning in federal fiscal year 2000.
It is anticipated that the City Council will include funding for the local matching funds
required (20% of the project) in the City's Capital Improvements Program. Construction is
currently scheduled to begin in the spring of 2001.
5. THIS NOTICE IS FOR INFORMATION ONLY AND IS NOT AN OFFER TO
PURCHASE PROPERTY RIGHTS OR TO PROVIDE RELOCATION
BENEFITS.
The City Council of the City of Iowa City, Iowa has not yet determined to undertake the
above-described project or to acquire property rights for the project. This Notice does not
constitute an offer to purchase property rights or an offer to provide relocation benefits, and
affected property owners are not required to move from their residences or relocate their
businesses at this time. Eligibility for relocation benefits will not occur until the project has
been approved by the City Council, and an offer to purchase has been made to individual
property owners.
6. STATEMENT OF RIGHTS.

property have certain rights. You have the right to:

d. When an appraisal is required, an opportunity to accompany at least one appraiser of

its award to district court. (Iowa Code §§ 6B.4, 6B.7, and 6B.18)
g. A review by the compensation commission of the necessity for the condemnation if
your property is agricultural land being condemned for industry; (Iowa Code §
6B .4A)
h. Payment of the agreed upon purchase price, or if condemned, a deposit of the
compensation commission award before you are required to surrender possession of
the property. (Iowa Code §§ 6B.25 and 6B.54(11))
i. Reimbursement for expenses incidental to transferring title to the acquiring agency.
(Iowa Code §§ 6B.33 and 6B.54(10))
j. Reimbursement of certain litigation expenses: (1) if the award of the compensation
commissioners exceeds 110 percent of the acquiring agency's final offer before
condemnation; and (2) if the award on appeal in court is more than the compensation
commissioner's award. (Iowa Code §6B.33)
k. At least 90 days written notice to vacate occupied property. (Iowa Code § 6B.54(4))

The Honorable Ernest Lehman
Mayor of Iowa City
Civic Center :~i .-7
410 East Washington Street
Iowa City, IA 52240
Dear Mayor Lehman:
The purpose of this letter is to explain the position of Hieronymi Partners on the
best location for the proposed ramp and other development by the City in Block 102 in
downtown Iowa City. But first it may be helpful to review the recent past on this subject.
During the period from June 15, 1997 to October 6, 1997 there were extensive
discussions with City staff and the other owners of property in Block 102 about the
possible joint development of the block. Although I have maintained a detailed record of
the various meetings that occurred, it is sufficient for now to provide the following
summary:
· June 16, 1997. Karin Franklin called to inform me that the City was
considering building a new parking ramp on the east half of Block 102.
To do this the City will need to acquire the Cave and the Hieronymi
parking lot, Mod Pod and the Bank building. She added that this concept
is only in the talking stage, although the City intends to have the properties
appraised.
· June 18, 1997. We met with Dale Kretschmar from the Magna Bank to
discuss our call from Karin and one that he had received from her. She
asked him if the City could have the bank property appraised and he told
her the Bank would not object. He told us that he would be talking to the
bank' s real estate people about a new location for the bank. He said he
personally would prefer the comer of Burlington and Clinton in
Hieronymus Square.
· June 25, 1997. Talked to Karin by telephone about the idea of a joint or
cooperative effort to develop Block 102. We discussed the concem of the
City that Hieronymus Square will not be built. We assured her that we
have no other plan for the Block 102 properties and that Hieronymus
Square will be built as soon as financing can be arranged. We also told
The Honorable Ernest Lehman
Page 2 of 4
January 18, 2000
her that we were interested in participating in the joint development of
Block 102 but we need to know more about how this would be
accomplished.
· June 26, 1997. We met with Calvin Lewis, our architect, to discuss the
possibility of the City building a parking ramp in Block 102. He agreed
with us that this could be good news. However, that would depend on the
location of the ramp. If the ramp were built on the east half of Block 102,
there would be no future Phase II of Hieronymus Square. Assuming that
the reason for building a ramp in Block 102 is to stimulate business
development on the south side of Burlington Street, it follows that placing
the ramp on the east half of the Block where it will prevent any future
prime development along Burlington Street is not a good idea. It was
decided that Calvin prepare concept drawings showing the ramp running
east to west on the south 170 feet of the block which would permit the
greatest future commercial development along Buffington Street.
· July 18, 1997. We met with Calvin Lewis and Dale Kretschmar. Calvin
presented his concept drawings, accompanied by a small model, showing
his plan for the development of Block 102. The plan shows one basic
scheme for the development of the Block with some alternative uses for
portions of it. The plan shows Phase I and II of Hieronymus Square on
Burlington between Clinton and Dubuque and the parking ramp on the
south portion of the block between Clinton and Dubuque. Additional
street level commercial space is shown beneath the ramp on the south
along Court Street and extending around the comer on both Clinton and
Dubuque Streets. Calvin met with members of the City planning staff
later that day to discuss his plan. The City will be contacting us later on
how, when or if, we can expect to proceed.
· August 6, 1997. Met with Dale Kretschmar to discuss the Bank's future
needs and to plan for a meeting with the other owners of property in Block
102.
· September 6, 1997. Met with a representative from an appraisal company
to discuss the Cave property. We met again on September 9tn.
· September 15, 1997. Met with Dale Kretschmar to discuss the list of
issues we have prepared for the meetings with the other owners of
properties in Block 102 and the City.
· September 24, 1997. Met with Dale Kretschmar and the other owners of
property in Block 102 to formulate and review the topics to be discussed
with the City staff and the Council.
The Honorable Ernest Lehman
Page 3 of 4
January 18, 2000
· October 2, 1997. Karin Franklin called to ask for any appraisals of
Hieronymi property in Block 102 that we have. We delivered the
appraisal on 328 South Clinton to her. The Council lans to review the
appraisals during an executive session on October 64 and discuss what
they are going to do during the work session that follows.
· October 6, 1997. The Council, during the work session that night, decided
that a parking ramp on Iowa Avenue should be given priority over a ramp
for Block 102.
Now, two years later the City is back talking to us about the joint development of
Block 102. For us, nothing has changed. Block 102 is the only place that any significant
commercial development is likely to happen on the south side of Burlington Street.
Phase I of Hieronymus Square, containing a gross floor area of 150,000 square feet of
retail and office space, will be built on the southeast comer of Clinton and Burlington
Streets as soon as financing can be arranged. Phase II of Hieronymus Square, as
designed, would contain an additional 130,000 square feet of retail and office space.
There has been no lessening of our resolve to build the project but we cannot ignore the
stark reality of the retail situation, as it exits today in downtown Iowa City. In fact
without the building of the ramp and the other development by the City in the block, it is
doubtful that Hieronymus Square could be built at this time. With over $500,000
invested in the design and planning of the project to date, we are not about to throw up
our hands and walk away from it either. What we are doing is evaluating any changes to
the project that could make it more viable. For instance, we have nearly completed the
modifications to the building plans changing the second floor of retail to office space.
This process will continue.
Our principle concern about the location of the ramp in Block 102 is the impact it
will have on Hieronymus Square. It was just such a development that we had in mind in
acquiring the various properties through the years as they became available. If the ramp
is built on the southern portion of the block on Court Street between Clinton and
Dubuque then the Hieronymi Partners property east of the alley will remain available for
the future development of Phase II of Hieronymus Square. In that event, the marketplace
would determine when it could be built. If the ramp is built on the east half of the Block,
then Phase II will never be built and the potential additional 130,000 square feet of retail
and office space will be lost forever. There are several other reasons why the ramp should
be built on the south 170 feet of the block. These are:
· Block 102 was platted as an out lot in the original plat of Iowa City
because it is bigger than a standard block. The east-west dimension is the
standard 320 feet but the north-south dimension is 380 feet. The extra 60
north~south feet would provide more flexibility in the design of the ramp
The Honorable Ernest Lehman
Page 4 of 4
January 18, 2000
as well as room for the east-west private or public alley at mid-block to
serve Hieronymus Square and the other development in the block.
The building of a third ramp on Burlington Street would contribute to an
unattractive canyon effect at the primary entrance to the downtown. No
matter how well the designer might camouflage it, it will still be the third
ramp in three blocks all on Burlington Street.
· The development of more than 280,000 square feet of retail and office
space on the south side of Burlington Street could produce a synergistic
effect on the future redevelopment of the half-block across Burlington to
the north.
It is our intention to commence construction on Hieronymus Square as soon as
possible so that the present tenants and owners to be displaced will have the option of
relocating in Hieronymus Square. We do hereby renew our original requests for tax
abatement and the vacation of the north 212 feet of the alley. Later on in the process we
will be asking for some accommodation on the location of electrical transformers and
access to our basement parking area.
Very truly yours,
ffWi~o~

Re: Construction Management Services
Water Treatment Plant and
South Wastewater Treatment Plant
The Public Works Department desires to perform construction management services
"in house" for the new Water Treatment Plant project awarded by Council on
December 7, 1999 and the South Wastewater Treatment Plant Tmprovements
project scheduled to be awarded by Council on February 15, 2000. These projects
are both two year plus construction projects.
As we have shown in the past, the City can save a substantial amount of money by
managing these projects to the greatest extent possible with its own employees. I
have been reviewing Special Projects staffing needs in anticipation of these two
Capital Projects, and have concluded that an additional Special Projects Manager is
needed. Therefore, Public Works requests authorization to hire an additional
Special Projects Manager.
Contracting for project inspection averages between 8% and 10% of construction
costs, while "in-house" project inspection averages between 2% and 4% of
construction costs.

MEMORANDUM

From: Kevin O'Malley

Date: December 23, 1999
Subject: Assistant Controller
With my promotion to Assistant Director of Finance, I have retained my duties as
Controller as well as the additional responsibility of Risk Management. In order to
assure day to day attention to the Accounting Division work assignments, I would
like to create the position of Assistant Controller and assign the responsibility to a
Senior Accountant in the division. The Assistant Controller will provide the daily
attention and consistency that is required in the Accounting Division. One Senior
Accountant position will be vacated.
The Assistant Controller will assist me in directing the operational, financial, and
personnel activities of the Accounting Division. This position will also assist me
in planning, assigning, reviewing the work and evaluating the performance of the
support staff in the maintenance of accounting records, payroll processing,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, and financial reporting. The Assistant
Controller will account for all grants, prepare annual audit workpapers, and
compile and assist me in the review of the annual financial report.
Currently, the Senior Accountant position is classified at AFCSME paygrade 13.
I am requesting approval to classify the Assistant Controller as an Administrative
position at paygrade 26, which reflects the added responsibility of the position.
The Assistant Controller position would increase Accounting's budgeted payroll
cost by $1,859 in FY2001 (including benefits).
Thank you for considering this position. Please let me know if you have any
questions.
