BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In August 2004 this property was rezoned from Interim Development (ID -RS) to Planned
Development Overlay Low Density Single Family (OPD -5). The rezoning allowed for cluster
development to preserve the environmentally sensitive features including the Iowa River
corridor and flood plain, wetlands, regulated slopes and woodlands. At the same time, a
preliminary plat of Mackinaw Village was approved to allow the subdivision of the property
into a 1 15 -lot residential subdivision. The final plat of Mackinaw Village Estates, Part 1, a
14 -lot subdivision, and Part 2, a 70 -lot subdivision was approved in October 2004. Part 1 is
now mostly built and Part 2 is partially complete. However, the preliminary plat for Part 3
expired in August 2006.
In August 2008 new subdivision regulations were adopted. The new regulations contained
revised standards for street design. The applicant has submitted a preliminary and final plat
for Mackinaw Village Part 3, which complies with the new standards where possible.
Construction plans have been submitted and are being reviewed by the City Engineer. The
City Attorney's Office is reviewing the legal papers. It is anticipated that these plans and
documents will be approved by staff prior to City Council consideration of the final plat.
The applicant has indicated that they have chosen not to use the "Good Neighbor Policy"
and has not had discussions with neighborhood representatives.
ANALYSIS:
Street Design: Mackinaw Village is accessible by Foster Road, with Algonquin Road and
Mackinaw Drive providing access to units in Part 3 of the subdivision. Consistent with the
original plat approved in 2004, the preliminary plat shows Algonquin Road to be extended
north to the border of the subdivision. Mission Point Road will provide an east -west
connection through the center of the subdivision.
In 2004 when the Mackinaw Village preliminary plat was originally approved, the City's
subdivision regulations required 50 -foot right -of -ways for local streets and 4 -foot sidewalks.
The City's current subdivision code requires 60 -foot right -of -ways for local streets and 5-
foot sidewalks. Because the streets and sidewalks are partially built, staff recommends
continuing the 50 -foot street and 4 -foot sidewalk widths, except for Algonquin Road north
of Mission Point Road. Algonquin Road will eventually be extended north to connect Foster
Road to the Arn Property and then east to connect to Laura Drive. Because this portion of
Algonquin Road will serve as a collector street for the northern development, it would be
required to comply with the 60 -foot street width and 5 -foot sidewalk width pursuant to the
current subdivision standards.
Neighborhood Design and Sensitive Areas: The North District Plan promotes the use of
cluster development of this area to preserve the environmentally sensitive features. The
plan suggests conservation design development for the steep slopes and woodlands. As a
result, an OPD5 zoning designation was approved in 2004, which included approval of a
Sensitive Areas Development Plan addressing lot placement and size, tree protection and
3
tree placement, open space, conservation areas, and storm water management. At that
time, lots 72 -74, 77 -75, and 79 -82 were also approved for 4 -unit townhomes, while lots 71
and 78 were approved for 2 -unit townhomes and lot 83 was approved for a 16 -unit
multifamily building. The approval also included building designs for all lots except lots 79-
81, which are proposed to have 4 -unit townhomes with front - facing garages. These lots
have a gas pipe line easement on the north side, making a rear lane difficult. As a result, in
2004, the City agreed to allow the front - facing garages and to work with the applicant to
modify the building elevations and soften the appearance of the garages to reduce the front
yard paving. The Planned Unit Development requires that building designs on these lots are
subject to staff approval.
Infrastructure fees: Water main extension fees of $395 per acre should be address in the
legal papers. There are no Sanitary Sewer fees for this area.
Neighborhood Park /and: Per the zoning code, the neighborhood open space requirement for
all of Mackinaw Village is 1.77 acres. This requirement was fulfilled during the final plat of
Mackinaw Village Part 2 with the dedication of Outlot C, a 1 .8 -acre parcel of open space in
the northwest area of the subdivision.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of SUB1 0-0001 4/SUB1 0-00015 the preliminary and final plat of
Mackinaw Village Part 3, a 13 -lot 7.89 acre residential subdivision located north of Arch
Rock Road and east of Mackinaw Village Subdivision Part 2 subject to approval of
construction drawing by the Public Works Office and the legal papers by the City Attorney
prior to City Council consideration.

To: Tom Markus, City Manager
From: Chris O'Brien, Director of Transportation Services 61—a; 6---
Re: Howling Dogs Inc. Addendum to Lease — April 19, 2011 City Council Meeting
Introduction: Included for the April 19, 2011 City Council Meeting you will find the Item &
Comment, Resolution and supporting documentation for the Addendum to Lease Agreement
with Howling Dogs Inc. Howling Dogs Inc. is in the process of facilitating a purchase of the
Fairgrounds (Grounds for Dessert Coffee House Inc.) business and assets and will continue to
operate the business as a coffee house and bakery.
History/background: Fairgrounds, formerly known as Grounds for Dessert, has leased the
space since June of 2006 at the Court Street Transportation Center. The business has been
located in a commercial space consisting of 2460 square feet and is run as a vegan coffee
house and bakery. Howling Dogs Inc. has negotiated an amendment to the lease with City staff
in order to facilitate the sale and continue operation of the business located in this space. They
will be adding to the menu, extending the business hours and offering live entertainment. In
addition, Howling Dogs Inc. will be adding sidewalk cafe space during the warmer months.
Discussion of Solution: City Legal and Transit staff have negotiated an amendment of the
existing lease with representatives of Howling Dogs Inc. Should this be approved by City
Council, this will allow assignment of the lease, contingent on the sale of Grounds for Dessert
Coffee House, Inc. to Howling Dogs Inc. Monthly rent for this space will begin at $2050.00 for
the initial two year term with the lessee also responsible for all property taxes.
Recommendation: It is my recommendation that City Council approve this resolution for
assignment and amendment of the Grounds for Dessert Coffee House Inc. lease for the space
located at the Court Street Transportation Center.

commonly known as the Court Street Transportation Center and has the authority to lease said premises.
B. City, as Landlord, and Grounds for Dessert Coffee House, Inc., as Tenant, have previously entered

C. Grounds for Dessert Coffee House, Inc., the current tenant under the Lease, is negotiating for the sale
of certain of its business assets, including an assignment of the Lease, to HDI. HDI, contingent upon
closing on such purchase, wishes to continue the operation of a business in the leased premises for the
remaining Lease term (ending May 31, 2011) and for an extended term. The parties wish to enter into this
Conditional Addendum to such Lease to set forth the terms and conditions of the extended term.
Terms and Conditions
In consideration of the foregoing recitals and the following terms and conditions, it is agreed between the
parties as follows:
1. Provided the current Tenant (Grounds for Dessert Coffee House, Inc.) and HDI enter into a final
binding agreement for the current tenant's sale of certain business assets and leasehold improvements of
such tenant to HDI, and further conditioned upon the parties closing on such transaction, City consents to
an assignment of the existing Lease from Grounds for Dessert Coffee House, Inc. to HDI provided that
HDI agees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Lease for its remaining term ending May
31, 2011 and further agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Addendum.
2. Upon HDI's closing on the purchase of certain of the business assets and the leasehold improvements
of Grounds for Dessert Coffee House, Inc., HDI agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of
the Lease accruing from and after the closing date on such purchase and also agrees to be bound by all of
the terms and conditions of this Addendum. HDI shall promptly notify City in writing of the closing on
the acquisition transaction. In the event such closing does not occur on or before May 31, 2011, then this
addendum shall become null and void unless it has been extended by written agreement of the City and
HDI.
3. HDI and City agree that the Lease shall not expire on May 31, 2011, but shall instead be extended for
one additional term of two years, from June 1, 2011 through May 31, 2013 ( "Extended Term ").
Thereafter HDI, as the successor tenant, shall have three options to extend the Lease term: the first such
option for a period of two years, and the remaining two options for periods of three years each. HDI shall
be required to give written notice to Landlord not less than 120 days prior the expiration of the preceding
term of HDI's intent to exercise an option for an additional term. All terms and conditions of the Lease as
specifically modified by this Addendum shall be applicable during the initial two year Extended Term as
well as each of the succeeding option terms, if exercised. Provisions of the original Lease relating to
adjustment of rental for option terms shall not be applicable but instead shall be superseded by the rental
adjustments specified in this Addendum.
4. The rent for the initial two year Extended Term, as well as the first two year option (if exercised), shall
be $10 /sq.ft per annum. The rent for the second and third option terms (3 years each) shall be at $11 /sq.ft.
5. Commencing on June 1, 2011 and continuing during the initial 2 year Extended Term and each of the
option terms, if exercised, the Landlord shall no longer pay $4 /sqft towards the real estate taxes, but
rather FEDI shall pay the entire amount of real estate taxes for the rental premises as those payments
accrue. Landlord shall continue to collect advances for the payment of taxes on a monthly basis as now
provided in the Lease, and shall continue to only allocate a reasonable prorata share of the taxes imposed
on the taxable portion of the building to the rental premises.
6. Landlord hereby consents to HDI's use of the open outdoor space immediately south of the internal
seating area, subject to any setback requirements imposed by the ordinances of the City of Iowa City.
HDI shall bear all costs associated with any fencing, platforms or other improvements required by
ordinance or otherwise appropriate for use of such outdoor seating area. No rental shall be imposed in
connection with HDI's use of such space. Any use of the outdoor space to the east of the rental premises
shall be subject to the City's Sidewalk Cafe Ordinance and any associated costs or obligations shall be
borne by HDI.
7. During the Extended Term and any exercised option term Landlord, through its parking division, shall
sell to HDI annual passes for not less than four designated parking spaces inside the ramp adjacent to the
leased premises at the then prevailing rate for such passes, as such rate may change from time to time.
HDI shall be responsible for the installation and maintenance of any signage for reserving such spaces for
HDI's employees and /or guests, which signage shall be subject to Landlord's approval. HDI shall be
responsible for monitoring use and enforcement of such reserved parking.
8. City agrees that the designated allowable use of the premises as a "coffee house and bakery" shall
include restaurant uses and also the performance of recorded or live music so long as such music does not
disturb other tenants or become a public nuisance (disrupt any residential neighbors).
9. Landlord has no objections to HDI's installation of a coffee roaster within the rental premises provided
that HDI complies with the requirements for alterations contained at paragraph 12 of the Lease.
10. Landlord and HDI acknowledge that this Addendum is contingent upon HDI's acquisition of the
business assets and receipt of an assignment of the Lease. Should both of those events not occur, this
Addendum shall be null and void. In the event both of such events occur, then the parties acknowledge
that the Lease shall be extended according to its terms and conditions as expressly modified by this
Addendum.
11. While this Addendum remains conditional., HDI may not assign its rights under this Addendum
unless with the prior written consent of the City. After this Addendum is implemented, then any
assignment of this Addendum shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Lease.
IN WITNESS THEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Conditional Addendum to Lease,
