We still hope to accomplish site preparation this year and are even hopeful that we might begin construction this fall. In all honesty, we were quite surprised and puzzled when the Council voted to delay action on our request. It would be easier to understand the Council's delay if there were a question about the function of the alley or our plans. The expressed reason by Councilmember Vanderhoef, to inquire into whether County land which would serve as a shelter site might be available to trade for the alley, does not seem to understand the intergovernmental relationship which we strive for and thought existed between us. First of all, to answer Dee's question directly, we don't have any land to trade for the alley. Ifthe council decided to change its past practice regarding intergovernmental vacations and transfers, we could discuss paying fair market values for the alley It's important to add that, as far as we can tell, the Council has not done that in the past-nor have we. 913 SOUTII DUBUQUE ST. SUITE #201 IOWA CITY, IOWA 52240-4207 TEL: (319) 356-6000 FAX: (319) 356-6036 Here are two recent examples ofthe intergovernmental relationship we though existed: (1) Last year you were undertaking a major project to build Camp Cardinal Road and needed land from us. Johnson County transferred its land to you, along with a construction easement, for no cost-and simply accepted your word that you needed our property. (2) Last month when Iowa City suffered greatly because of a tornado and the need was great, we brought our Secondary Roads personnel and equipment into Iowa City where they worked tirelessly for about a week to help both your departments and citizens ofIowa City. We expected nothing I return-because you and your citizens had a need for help. Now we need your help--by vacating and transferring this alley. We recognize that Shelter House is a community need and concern and as we struggled through another tough budget year, we remained committed to that need and provided $8,721 to Shelter House and $10,000 to the STAR program for FY 2007. However, it is unrelated to our longstanding plan for a new Health and Human Services Building. Thank you for taking time to visit with us since your meeting on May 2nd and for your consideration of our vacation and transfer request.
