History /Background: The Parks and Recreation Commission annually reviews, make suggestions and approves fees and charges for all Parks and Recreation Department services and programs. The matrix presented is done on a three year outlook, similar to the three year outlook that regular budgeting is done on. City Code requires review and passage every year. Discussion of Solution: Review and approve the matrix with any suggested changes, recomendations and /or improvements. Recommendation: Approve the fees and charges schedule as submitted and endorsed by the Parks and Recreation Commission. It should be noted that some of the proposed fees will take effect in FY 14 because the summer season begins in FY14 but continues into FY15. Fiscal Impact: This schedule will allow the department to plan its cost recovery mission for the next several years and make us more cost effective and efficient.

Attached is a memo from the City Controller outlining the background and reasoning for this request. History/Background: The Accounting division of the Finance Department has been undergoing some changes due to turnover and due to the temporary nature of the flood grant work. As a result, the division will be eliminating a full -time Grant Accountant position and replacing a full -time Internal Auditor position. The division will only have the discretion to hire one additional employee to replace both of these positions. Discussion of Solutions: As discussed in the City Controller's memo, we have reviewed various possibilities in regards to our accounting positions. Our intention was to find a solution that would maximize our flexibility as a department and still accomplish the variety of tasks that are necessary. The result was to combine these two job descriptions (Internal Auditor and Grant Accountant) with the Senior Accountant job description. This would allow us to staff two Senior Accountants, but the flexibility to assign tasks associate with internal audit, grant management, and accounting to either position. This combination gives us two Senior Accountants rather than one Grant Accountant, one Internal Auditor, and one Senior Accountant. In addition, we will reduce the full -time Grant Accountant position to a temporary, part-time position to assist in the completion of the Animal Shelter, the Gateway, and the 2013 disaster projects. Financial Impact: The financial impact of converting the Internal Auditor position to a Senior Accountant is budget neutral, because both positions are at the same AFSCME pay grade. This change will be effective immediately upon approval by the City Council. Recommendation: My recommendation is to approve the resolution updating the City's staffing plan by converting the Internal Auditor position in the Accounting division to a Senior Accountant position. � r CITY OF IOWA CITY MEMORANDUM Date: January 9, 2014 To: Dennis Bockenstedt, Finance Director From: Robin Marshall, Controller Re: Accounting Positions Introduction: Accounting currently has 3 senior level accountant positions: Senior Accountant — Accounting, Internal Auditor, and Grant Accountant, with 1 FTE budgeted in each of these positions for FY14. In FY15, the Grant Accountant position is being reduced and the Internal Auditor position is currently vacant. Each of these positions has a very distinctive job description and job duties. To improve the Accounting Division going forward, I would like to reclassify the Internal Auditor position to better represent the overall tasks of this position and allow us to cross train and further develop employee skill sets and improve Accounting's ability to support the City's financial reporting needs. History/Background: In 2004, the Internal Auditor position was created. This position has developed such that the internal auditor's time is broken out into the following tasks: 30% internal audit 20% month -end 20% year -end 15% grant reporting 15% other miscellaneous tasks The Internal Auditor position has recently been vacated due to an internal transfer. In 2010, the Grant Accountant was added as a temporary- permanent position to help with the increased work load due to additional financial reporting requirements for the multiple grants the City received through ARRA, I -JOBS, flood mitigation, and Economic Development Assistance. Last fall, it was determined that the Grant Accountant position would not become permanent but instead become a .5 FTE hourly position; thus eliminating a .5 FTE in Accounting. Discussion of Solutions: With the Internal Auditor being vacated and the Grant Accountant being reduced to .5 FTE as of June 30, 2014, we have examined what would be the best alternative to position Accounting to continue to provide quality support to our internal and external customers. Options that were considered include: - Hire a new Internal Auditor - Eliminate the Internal Auditor position and make the Grant Accountant a permanent position - Reclassify the Internal Auditor position as a Senior Accountant — Accounting position and develop a new job description for Senior Accountant — Accounting encompassing the tasks for these 2 positions Accounting will continue to need staff to perform the functions currently performed by the Internal Auditor and to completely eliminate the position would not be feasible. On the other hand, for a senior level accountant to be effective, the accountant needs to understand all aspects of accounting. Redefining the Senior Accountant — Accounting position to incorporate January 9, 2014 Page 2 the tasks of the Internal Auditor and the Grant Accountant and hiring a second Senior Accountant - Accounting will allow Accounting to be more flexible while still providing a high level of support. In addition, based on previous experience this broader job description will produce a larger pool of qualified candidates from which to select. Financial Impact: The Internal Auditor position and the Senior Accountant position are both in pay grade 13 of the AFSCME pay plan so there is no financial impact. Recommendation: I recommend that we reclassify the Internal Auditor position to the Senior Accountant — Accounting position with the updated job description.

History/Background: As a part of the current investment policy, the Finance Department will review the City's policy and update it periodically. The City's current investment policy was last updated on November 3,1998. Discussion of Solutions: The City's investment policy was reviewed and updated by the City's Senior Accountant in charge of investments, Brian Cover. The City's current investment policy was compared to similar investment policies from other Iowa cities as well as the GFOA's model investment policy. A GFOA webinar on preparing and updating investment policies was also attended by Brian. Following these preparations, the City's investment policy was reviewed and updated. These changes have been reviewed by me as well as the City's legal department. The overall policy does not change substantially. Major changes include more detailed guidelines for investment limitations, a listing of prohibited investments and practices, and the addition of other eligible investment options. Financial Impact: The change in the investment policy update will not have a significant financial impact the City. Recommendation: My recommendation is for the City Council to approve the resolution amending the City's Investment Policy with the attached, updated version. �i GIC- f f 1 Prepared by: Dennis Bockenstedt, Finance Director, 410 E.

Introduction: An addendum to the current Public Access Television, Inc. (PATV) /Iowa City contract has been requested by PATV to allow their organization to engage in solicitation, provide video services and perform commercial activities for purposes of raising funds, increasing assets, obtaining equipment, facilities and /or other assistance to support the "Scope of Services" set forth in Section 1 of the Agreement. History /Background: Currently PATV is limited to not - for - profit activities and depends primarily on resources provided by its contract with Iowa City. PATV has long been encouraged by the City to develop alternative and additional fund raising opportunities. The addendum would allow any funds received from PATV's efforts through such solicitation, services, or activities to be placed in an account separate from any account used to keep funds received from the City pursuant to Section 14 of the Agreement. In part, this will help preserve the distinction between profit and not - for - profit activities and services. The addendum provides Iowa City both access to related records and a method to review the process and accounting of this profit based fund - raising activity. In addition, the current assets of PAN that are subject to be transferred to the City under certain circumstances have been inventoried, identifying what assets were acquired with "Mediacom /City" funds as opposed to any future assets that are acquired with PATV's own funds. Financial Impact: The financial impact of these changes should be minimal as existing staff will be used for enforcement. Recommendation: Staff recommends that Council approve the resolution.

Passed and appro d this day of , 20 ATTEST: CITY CLERK City Attorney's Office = CITY OF IOWA CITY M It � z--- �ws' T MEMORANDUM DATE: January 15, 2014 TO: Tom Markus, City Manager FROM: Rick Fosse, Public Works Director RE: Iowa City Gateway Project Introduction The City of Iowa City has received notification from the Iowa Department of Transportation that the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has approved and signed the Finding of No Significant Impact ( FONSI) for the Iowa City Gateway Project. The approval was dated December 18, 2013. The FONSI is the final step in the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. The project is now cleared to move forward to the design phase. History /Background The first phase of the project, the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Process, was started three years ago and is required to receive federal funds for the project. The Environmental Assessment (EA) is a complete study and discussion of resources present within the proposed area, looking at both the natural and social (man -made) environment. Considerable evaluation of options for the Gateway Project occurred as part of this process including the examination of many initial alternatives (off - alignment improvements to other roadways such as Dodge / Governor and Foster Road / Prairie du Chien for example), before concluding that improving the roadway in its current location should be the Preferred Alternative. In addition, the Do Nothing Option continues to be evaluated for comparison. It is important to note that because of aging infrastructure and existing conditions, the Do Nothing Option would still require significant improvements throughout the corridor even if the roadway and bridge were not elevated. As part of this process, staff has held two public meetings (March 3, 2011 and July 13, 2011), a drop -in center / open house (December 8, 2011), a public hearing (April 4, 2013) and attended three Historic Preservation Committee meetings. The 3 public meetings in 2011 hosted over 330 attendees. Additional comments were received throughout the entire process by staff through email, phone calls and meetings on site or in the office with interested citizens / residents and numerous speaking events with local organizations. The comments and feedback received from the public provided staff and design team with comments and ideas that were used to develop the preferred alternative. If you have not done so already, please take time to view the video or read the transcript of the April 4, 2013 Public Hearing. Both are available on the attached links to project related documents. January 16, 2014 Page 2 Discussion of Solution The EA completed for this project evaluated the elevation of Dubuque Street to 1' above the 500 year flood event and the low steel of the bridge to 1' above the 500 year flood event. This represents the maximum level of protection that can be built with the existing environmental clearance. The financial grants for this project set a minimum level of protection for Dubuque Street and the low steel of the bridge at 1' above the 100 year flood event. These establish the upper and lower limits of protection that can be considered for design if federal funds are to be used. The details of this project and various design options have been discussed at the September 17, 2013 and October 1, 2013 City Council Work Sessions. The attached spreadsheet, Bridge Type and Level of Protection Comparison, summarizes and compares 48 different options. Also attached are responses to questions that were asked at the October 1 st Work Session. Financial Impact The preliminary project estimate for the budget was based on a deck girder bridge. A through arch bridge will be approximately $3M more expensive and a cable stay bridge will be approximately $8M more expensive. Recommendation The project is currently placed on the agenda for the January 21St informal Work Session. At that time, we will have a brief project presentation and answer questions that the City Council may have. The project is also on the agenda for the Formal City Council meeting for a resolution to establish the three primary design parameters. Those parameters are: 1. Level of protection for Dubuque Street 2. Backwater reduction goals (Elevation of Park Road Bridge) 3. Structural type of the bridge Staff's recommendations for each of the major design parameters, as outlined at the October 1 st Work Session, are described in more detail below: Level of Protection for Dubuque Street Staff recommends protecting Dubuque Street to the 2008 + 1' level. While this recommendation offers less protection than the option outlined in the Environmental Assessment (EA), staff feels that this is a reasonable level of protection and provides a good balance of performance while limiting impacts. Level of Protection Option Estimated number of days closed over the past 20 years due to Iowa River flooding Relative Comparison: inches above /below the 2008 + 1' protection level Existing 150 NA 100 year + 1' 7* -39" 200 year + 1' 5* -11" 2008 flood + 1' Recommended 0 0" 500 year + 1' EA Preferred Alt 0 +19" *Including one day for cleanup, inspection and repair after inundation January 16, 2014 Page 3 Backwater Reduction Goals and Bridge Type Staff recommends that we proceed with either the Through Arch Bridge with a low steel elevation of 200yr + 1' or the Deck Girder Bridge with a low steel elevation of 200yr + 1'. As illustrated in the following table, the bridge type has an effect on the backwater reduction, the cost and the elevation of the Dubuque Street / Park Road intersection. All of these factors will need to be weighed and consideration of aesthetics given when making a decision. Option Bridge Low Elevation Backwater Dubuque Construction Type Steel at the Reduction Street Cost Elevation Dubuque at Protection Estimate of St /Park Rd Idyllwild Level Bridge and Intersection and Taft Road Speedway Maximum Deck 500yr + 1' 665.03 7" 500yr + 1' $36.65 M Protection and Girder Backwater Reduction (EA Preferred Alternative Recommended Through 200yr + 1' 659.02 4.9" 2008 + 1' $38.31 M Arch Arch Recommended Deck 200yr + 1' 662.52 6.1" 2008 + 1' $35.01 M Girder Girder A resolution to establish the above design criteria will be on the agenda for the Formal City Council meeting. Please be prepared to provide additional comments or questions at the Work Session for staff to address. Staff requests that the focus remain on the three design criteria that need to be established. As noted in the attached schedule, we will return to discuss specific Roadway Design Elements (lane width, turning lanes, sidewalks and trails) with Council in March. This will give our design team a chance to refine our conceptual design based on the design criteria and allow us to better address the questions that have been raised. The following materials have been included for Council's review prior to the meeting: • Questions and Comments generated from the October 1, 2013 Council Work Session, including • Roadway Elevations at Key Locations Matrix • Schedule of Design Phase Activities • Iowa DOT Concept Statement Form • Updated Links to project - related documents • Bridge Type and Level of Protection Comparison I II IS 1 Questions and Comments generated from the October 1, 2013 Council Work Session: Roadway Elevation and Desian Geometrics 1. Is a scenario that sets Dubuque Street protection at 100 +1 and a bridge set at 500 +1 feasible? What is the difference in elevation and grade change on Dubuque Street between Park Road and Kimball? Any of the concepts discussed to date feature an acceptable grade on Dubuque Street. There is sufficient distance between the relocated Park Road intersection and the Kimball Road intersection to accommodate any of the combinations of elevations for Dubuque Street and the Park Road Bridge. For example, the greatest change in elevation between Park and Kimball is with a girder bridge with low steel at 500 +1 and Dubuque Street at 100 +1. The change in elevation is approximately 11.7 feet and the distance between the intersections is approximately 550 feet, for a grade of 3 percent. The existing grade on Dubuque Street between these intersections is approximately 1.5 percent. For your reference, attached please find a matrix showing the roadway elevations at key locations for the different scenarios discussed. 2. How wide are the lanes on Dubuque currently? We currently have 12 foot lanes north of the Park Road intersection with a mix of urban (curb & gutter) and rural (shoulder) sections throughout and a speed limit of 35 mph. South of Park Road, lane widths are reduced to 11 feet, the speed limit is lowered to 25 mph, and clear zones adjacent to the roadway are less. This stretch of Dubuque Street transitions to serve a more urban and densely developed environment and provides direct access to the downtown and campus areas. Fraternities and residences also line this stretch of Dubuque Street and many more driveway and alley access points exist. 3. Will there be a median on Dubuque Street to accommodate the dual left turn lanes from EB Park Road to NB Dubuque Street? If so, will there be a raised median in the middle of Dubuque at the intersection or will it be painted? With the preferred alternative and the staff recommended concepts, there will be a painted median to achieve proper lane alignments and to accommodate the left turn lane from Dubuque Street to Park Road. The median is not affected by the dual left turn lanes from Park Road to northbound Dubuque Street. The figure below displays what the intersection would look like in the preferred alternative. The configuration would be very similar to the painted median that exists today. The existing median provides the spacing necessary to accommodate the 5 lanes (2 SB, 1 NB left turn, 2 NB thru) on Dubuque Street south of the Park Road intersection. January 15, 2014 IOWA CITY [GA7EWAY Also, please note that the preferred alternative moves the Dubuque Street alignment approximately 5 to 7 feet to the west north of the Park Road intersection along the Bella Vista bluff, even as it accommodates dual left turns from EB Park Road to NB Dubuque Street. Current Intersection Preferred Alternative Bridae Desian 4. Is it possible to design the bridge to accept lateral forces from a flooded Iowa River in order to maintain traffic when floodwater is in contact with low steel? How much more would this cost? HNTB Corporation will design a bridge that meets the current Iowa DOT design standards and the recommendations of City Council and staff. It is certainly possible to design the bridge to accept more lateral force than current safety factors require. Current safety factors allow for traffic on the bridge when floodwater is in contact with low steel or a point higher on the superstructure. Determining when to close a bridge to traffic is often up to the local government and the traveling public's comfort level. It is not possible to provide details related to the desired design conditions and their resulting costs until we are in the design process. 5. Is the deck thickness of the bridge impacted at all by the width? The deck thickness can be impacted by the width depending on the type of structure selected. The width of the structure for a deck girder bridge will not have an effect on the depth of the structure since the girders carry the load from pier to pier. Additional girders would be added to account for the additional width. The width of the structure for an arch bridge will likely impact the depth of the structure. In order to get the load to the arch ribs, it has to be carried through floor beams that run between the arch ribs. An increased distance between the arch ribs will increase the floor beam length January 15, 2014 IOWA CITY [GA7EWAY and depth. At this stage, it is recommended that arch be placed between the sidewalk and the roadway for a partial through arch. The sidewalk framing would be supported by a cantilever. Design Process 6. Will Council get the opportunity to review plans during the design process? While we (Council) are concerned about efficiency and cost of design, we do not want to get a design we are unhappy with because of so many unknowns up front. Yes, the attached schedule includes two council work sessions to present and exchange information with regards to the Roadway Design and cross - section issues and Aesthetics and Landscaping. Throughout the final design process, staff and the design team are committed to maintaining an open exchange of information with the Council, residents and other stakeholders. Attached, please find the draft design schedule and memo that provides an overview of the design process, timeframes for each phase and milestones for Council input or decisions. It also notes formal and informal opportunities for public input. What is the concept statement and when does this happen? The concept statement provides the Iowa DOT with the basic information regarding the project and improvements being designed, including information regarding location, costs, impacts, as well as existing and proposed design elements of the roadway cross - section. It is required by the DOT for Local Systems Federal Aid Projects. Attached, please find a copy of the concept statement form. As displayed in the attached schedule for the design process, staff will submit a concept statement to the Iowa DOT during the conceptual development stage. This will occur approximately 6 weeks into the design process. Staff will meet with Council prior to the concept statement submittal to discuss recommended roadway design parameters throughout the corridor. Flooding Issues 8. Will a higher bridge pass more water faster? No. The amount of water flowing through the bridge will remain the same. Since the new bridge is higher and longer, a larger cross - sectional area is provided and the velocity will actually be lower. 9. Is Coralville designing their flood protection projects to protect to a foot above the 100 - year floodplain elevation? Coralville is designing their flood control projects to a 2008 +1 elevation except at the Clear Creek Bridge on First Avenue where Coralville is designing protection for 100 +1, due to surrounding businesses and their proximity to the roadway. However, they are able to close First Avenue at the bridge and offer protection to 2008 +1 using removable flood barriers. January 15, 2014 IOWA CITY [GATEWAY Miscellaneous 10. What view will a person driving on Dubuque Street or walking have? A goal of the Gateway Project has been to maintain the look and feel of the current corridor. However, we cannot say definitively or display what the views will be from and of the project at this time. That depends on the elevation of the roadway and the bridge, the bridge type, clear zones, etc. As we work through the design issues and the aesthetics and landscaping plans, staff will present those details at a work session during the preliminary design phase. 11. Were the costs staff presented at the work session the cost of the bridge, or the total cost of the project? Neither, the costs presented were focused on the construction cost of the Gateway and the Park Road 3rd lane improvement projects. An additional $8M will be added to cover design, administration, construction administration, inspection, etc. Also, the Trunk Sewer project will be constructed at the some time and is estimated at $4.4M.

The schedule follows the Iowa DOT's design process flow chart and provides an overview of the major steps in the design process. During the design phase of the project, there will be multiple opportunities for public and City Council input. These design phases and the opportunities for Council and public input are described below. Pre - Design The design process will begin with the City Council's approval of the NEPA Preferred Alternative, staff recommendation, or a hybrid concept. The approval will provide staff and the consultant team with the necessary direction on each of the three design parameters discussed at the October 1 Work Session and Council Meeting. The three parameters are: 1) Level of protection for Dubuque Street; 2) Backwater reduction goals; and, 3) Structural type of the bridge. Concept Development Depending on the Council's approval, staff and the consultant team will have to update the concept to match the selected parameters. During this stage, the roadway model (horizontal and vertical profiles) will be updated to accommodate the approved bridge type and level of protection for Dubuque Street. At this stage, the concept will utilize the same widths for travel lanes, multiuse paths, parkway, etc. as those specified by Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT). The thematic concepts for landscaping will also be developed during this stage. The early concept development will include a public pre- design meeting and City Council work session. This work session will focus on the specific roadway design elements and pedestrian / bicycle connectivity opportunities throughout the corridor. After the Council work session, concept development will continue, coordination with the Iowa DOT will occur for the submittal of the Concept Statement. Concept Refinement and Preliminary Design During this phase, staff and the consultant team will be refining the concept based on Council and public interaction and communication. The concepts will be refined and developed in greater detail (20 -30% plan development) addressing roadway, bridge, utilities, sewer, aesthetics, etc. As the Concept Refinement phase wraps up, a new concept statement will be submitted to Iowa DOT and will include the features and impacts of the various design elements. In the Preliminary Design phase, design details will be further refined and a Council work session focused on aesthetics and landscaping will be held. The council will also be asked to approve a resolution initiating the property acquisition process for the project. January 15, 2014 LGATEWAY Field Exam, Preliminary, Check and Final Plans Following the Preliminary Design phase, staff and the consultant team will dive into the detailed design of the project. This includes developing the detailed design plans for all elements including roadway, bridge, permits, maintenance of traffic, etc. that will culminate with the final plans and specifications for letting. There will be opportunities for input throughout these phases, but the focus of issues to address will continue to narrow from the macro -level at 30 percent plans (lane or parkway widths) to the micro -level at 70 percent plans(sidewalk widths or curb and gutter type), before finalizing plans at the 90 and 100 percent deliverables. In addition to maintaining the open door policy and information exchange during all of these phases, a public hearing will be held during the Final Plans phase. Please Note: Throughout the design process, staff and the consultant team are committed to maintaining an open exchange of information with the Council, residents and other stakeholders. This includes being available during design to share the latest detailed information, listen to comments and address concerns. At key points in the design process, the website will be updated with new information and emails will be sent to those requesting updates.

This letter is to express support for: 1. The Gateway Project as recommended by the City staff members and 2. Improved access to the Peninsula neighborhoods west of the intersection of Dubuque Street and Foster Road. Practical alternatives include raising Foster Road (perhaps as a part of the Gateway project) or establishing emergency egress to Dubuque Street from Laura Drive. I request you support the Gateway Project for the following reasons: 1. The Gateway project improves aging infrastructure on major arteries. Dubuque Street has 25,500 cars per day on average. The Park Road bridge is dangerous and crumbling. Pedestrian and bike traffic is constantly in danger on these roads. 2. The Gateway project improves access to downtown businesses, especially when these businesses already are stressed due to flooding. 3. The Gateway project will reduce flooding backflow on Foster Road. Foster Road is the access to homes for residents of 684 addresses, which appears to represent 2.5 % of the citizens in Iowa City. In 2008, residents of this area were required to evacuate due to flooding. The Gateway project will reduce but not eliminate the future incidences of evacuation of this area. a. Since 2008, the number of residents in the Peninsula area have dramatically increased, as illustrated by the attached aerial photos. b. The City of Iowa City will incur significant costs in caring for these residents, providing evacuation, security and emergency services in the case of a flood. 4. The Peninsula neighborhood portion of this area is only 40% built out. Future residences will be more attractive to future taxpayers if there is a reduced chance of evacuation of this area. 5. The Peninsula area is one of the few areas where Iowa City has a growing tax base. As stated earlier, this area is growing quickly. Based upon assessor data, the area already represents 2.8% of assessed value in Iowa City for residential neighborhoods. I request that you support Improved Access to the Peninsula neighborhoods west of the intersection of Dubuque Street and Foster Road by raising Foster Road (perhaps as a part of the Gateway Project) or by establishing emergency egress to Dubuque Street from Laura Drive for the following reasons: See #3, #4 and #5 above. Department of Transportation traffic counts on Foster Road further show that Foster Road serves a large proportion of the residents of Iowa City, and this constituency base is growing. In 2007 there was an average of 1943 cars. By 2010 this number had grown 53% to 4160. These neighborhoods continue to grow and continue to need improved infrastructure. The Peninsula area was the City of Iowa City's vision. Included in that vision and in the Capital Improvements budget was the raising of Foster Road. The City's investment, and the residents' investment in the Peninsula neighborhood relied on this project, which 51211t5 a r- r ri -0 crs i Marian Karr From: Mark Wyatt <mark @iowabicyclecoalition.org> Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2014 11:28 AM To: Council Subject: Dubuque Street Dear City Council of Iowa City, On behalf of the Elk Run Homeowners Association board of directors, we wish to express our concern about the lack of progress on flood mitigation on Dubuque Street. The flood is a significant impact on economics, travel, and safety of our neighborhood. It is the safety concern that has produced alarm in our community as we hear of efforts to block the flood mitigation efforts. The biggest cause for alarm is the disconnection of emergency services from the Peninsula area. It is our understanding that first -in fire companies from Iowa City Fire Station No. 4 would provide a service for any structure fire. This may result in a delay for initial fire response, but the significant problem is the delay of support from the truck company located at downtown Station No. 1. Depending on traffic, Iowa City's ladder truck would have to respond through Coralville to reach Foster Road during a flood. Since our area contains three and four story residential complexes, access to the ladder truck is integral for life safety in the event of a fire. With the Iowa City Police station located downtown, we are sure they would have a similar response pattern from that location. We do understand the individual cars are mobile, but unless there was a car located in our neighborhood or strategically near the Hwy 1 /Interstate 80 area, we have to assume our response delays would have been similar. Everyone in our association understands effects of a flood on the Iowa River. However, our residents have moved to this location following the passage of a 1 cent sales tax for flood mitigation and have been diligently paying our tax until it recently expired. We are sorry that another neighborhood may be adversely affected by the flood mitigation project. We hope city staff can engineer a way to save the trees along Dubuque Street. Public safety should be a priority in this project for the Iowa City City Council. We cannot afford any serious injury, loss of life or property when the ability exists to mitigate flooding on Dubuque Street.

There is no doubt that this road needs to be raised to maintain access to our growing neighborhoods off of Foster Road. It is a positive thing that Iowa City prepares for inevitable future flooding, especially in light of increasing flooding concerns. Please move forward with raising Dubuque Street, we GLADLY welcome the lengthy road construction that is inevitable with raising the road, if it ultimately means access to our home is assured during flooding. Thank you for your time, Scott C. Dragoo 987 Walker Circle Iowa City Marian Karr From: Drew Dillman <drewdillman @gmail.com> Sent: Saturday, January 18, 2014 10:52 PM To: Melissa Clow; Mary Murphy; Judy Dillman; Council Subject: Proposed elevation of Park Road Bridge Dear City Council Members, It seems foolish to me to not elevate the bridge to the 500 year +1' elevation as preferred by EA. This elevates the cost of the bridge from $35.1 million to $36.65 million, a relatively small amount of the total cost of the proj ect. The bridge and its footings are the narrowest part of the river channel below City Park, and can act a constriction point (partial dam) raising the pool upstream from this obstruction. This pool threatens the neighborhoods upstream from the bridge and Rocky Shore Road where it passes under a railroad trestle adjacent to Crandic Park. The height of the pool is affected not only by the height of the bridge, but also the width of the channel under the bridge, which changes the height of the pool even during smaller floods. We have this one chance to make a difference by decreasing the effect of future floods before they are upon us rather than reacting to them after they have started. We have already seen that seemingly rare events like 100 and 200 year floods happen more often than we expect whether because of climate change or more rapidly draining land upstream from us. Please do all you can to minimize the effect of future floods by maximizing the channel under Park Street Bridge. Sincerely, Drew B. Dillman, M.D. Marian Karr From: MurphyGeerdes <mg9425 @mchsi.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 1:07 AM Cc: Council Subject: Gateway project to elevate Dubuque St., build new bridge, and add third lane on Park Rd. Dear Council Members: For many reasons, I do not support the raising of Dubuque St. to the level recommended by City staff. A far better and less expensive alternative to raising Dubuque Street would be to extend Foster Road to Prairie du Chien to provide more options for rerouting traffic when water is an issue. The Gateway project (raising of Dubuque Street) will be a traffic nightmare as construction is predicted to last at least two seasons, and Dubuque Street will be taken down to one lane each way and closed on occasion. Noise and dust will be excruciating. The narrow Park Road to Rocky Shore was not conducive to the Hancher construction dump trucks zipping up and down its length, and the traffic from the Gateway project will be worse. Assuming the design phase moves forward, I would respectfully request that the design include a livable plan for dealing with construction traffic, noise, dust, moving construction equipment to and from the site, and traffic plans for commuters (walkers, bikers, and autos) and large events so those of us who live in the area are not unduly burdened. Significant community input should be sought about this. Further, the cost is ever increasing, and I would request that City Council reevaluate this project following any design work. I do not support general obligation bonds being issued to raise Dubuque Street—property taxes are already high here. The property tax burden in Iowa City is likely to get worse as the school district will have to try to bond to get the money it needs to complete its facilities plan and the county continues to press for a new jail. While some of us can itemize on our tax return to lessen the property tax burden, many cannot. I suspect that property taxes are especially burdensome for those older individuals who live on fixed incomes, have their homes paid off, and do not itemize. As you are aware, every dollar an Iowa City resident spends on property taxes means less money to spend elsewhere. Nor do I support an additional sales tax to pay for the raising of Dubuque St. Lots of towns have elevated large roads as their entrance; Iowa City provides those entering its city with a wonderful vista of the river, providing a unique opportunity for Iowa City to differentiate itself from other geographic areas. The Gateway project should not be so large that it destroys this vista. I'd also request that the Council consider the visual impact that a highly elevated Dubuque St. would have from the Iowa City Park side of the river and from the river itself —the shoreline should not be unattractive. I do support elevation of a new bridge over Park Road and concur with Dr. Drew Dillman's email to you on this subject. I would like to see city staff seek more input about how the bike trail interacts with this new bridge as the design phase moves forward. I do not support building a new road from lower City Park into the Parkview Terrace neighborhood, especially a new road built over property that was bought out with FEMA dollars and which is supposed to remain green space in perpetuity. The Parkview Terrace neighborhood has a large amount of pedestrian traffic, many of whom make use of the roads to travel since the sidewalks are inadequate. Plus, emergency access to and from the park already exists the city's trucks routinely use the bike path to travel. Parkview Terrace is a walkable neighborhood, this should not be impeded and would be a poor use of taxpayer money. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Dear City Council, Please consider the following letter in support of the Gateway project. Thank you, John Kirby Susanne Mueller 1587 Foster Road Iowa City, IA 52245 Susanne Mueller & John Kirby 1587 Foster Road Iowa City, IA 52245 January 19, 2014 Dear Iowa City Council Members, We would like to express our strong support for The Iowa City Gateway project as recommended by the staff members. We also support improvement of the access to the Peninsula neighbohood by 1) raising Foster Road between Dubuque street and Calibria Street and /or 2) creating a second access Road from Laura Drive into Mackinaw Village. Dubuque Street serves as a main entrance to Iowa City for many residents and visitors with more than 25,000 vehicles per day. Dubuque Street is part of the daily commute for many people who work in Iowa City and is therefore a vital part of daily life. Raising Dubuque Street and replacing the damaged Park Road Bridge will improve access to Iowa City and the Univeristy of Iowa. The Gateway project will reduce flooding of Dubuque Street and backflow onto Foster Road, similar to that which occurred in 2008 where Foster Road was closed for up to 10 days and affected all residents in our area by forced evacuations. Therefore we also strongly support the proposal to raise Foster Road between Dubuque Street and Calibria Street as part of the Gateway project. A second entrance /exit to the neighborhoods could also be provided from Laura Drive east into Mackinaw Village; we support this proposal as well. We have been living on Foster Road in the Peninsual Neighborhood since 2006 and work at the Univeristy of Iowa. The flooding in 2008 and 2013 directly affected us as Dubuque street was closed to flooding for an extended period. In 2008, we were evacuated for 10 days and had disrupted commutes for another month following that event. In 2013, we prepared to evacuate, which disrupted work and travel plans for well over one week. Each event altered our University research projects leading to significant loss of progress. In contrast, we strongly oppose extension of Foster Road to 15t Ave in Coralville. This would negatively impact our neighborhood, the Peninsula Park and Thornberry Dog Park in Iowa City as well as Edgewater Park in Coralville. These areas are designated for public walking, jogging, bicycling, fishing and bird watching and should not be disturbed by car traffic. Indeed, development of our neighborhood was built on the premise of the walkable nature of our community, with low speed vehicles and no through -ways to other locations. Many families with small children and pets have located here due to the safe nature of the community design. Altering that design would destroy the existing concept and force many of us to consider relocating. We argue that the extension of Laura drive toward Mackinaw Village is functionally analogous to that of the extension of Oakdale Boulevard where the new road does not cut through a preexisting neighborhood but circumvents that neighborhood. Thank you for your consideration on these matters.

It would be interesting to attend the meeting on the 21St but don't think I will be able to do so. I would like to express my support for the recommendations forwarded to the council. I really like the look of the cable- stayed bridge and think it would present an attractive view to visitors to IC. However I imagine the cost is significantly more than the through -arch design, which I also like. On a somewhat related note, what is the time frame for the potential extension of Bjaysville lane through to Prairie du Chen? I live on Kimball Rd and am getting kind of tired of the fast - travelling cars that use Kimball to get from Dubuque to Prairie du Chen and Dodge. (The speed bumps seem to have no effect on these folks. The only people that appear to slow down are those that live in the neighborhood. I'd just as soon see them removed.)

A project that creates more damage and disturbance than any flood has or is likely to cause, seems misguided. Yours sincerely, Eric Gidal 328 Brown Street Iowa City Marian Karr From: lucyapple @mediacombb.net Sent: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 3:53 PM To: Council Subject: Gateway project - Myers Public Comment, Gateway Project, City Council Meeting January 21, 2014 Dear City Council, I encourage you to: 1. Select the partial through -arch bridge. The thin deck requires the least "extra elevation" of traffic (five feet as opposed to eight and a half) and therefore moderates the sacrifice of Bella Vista and the Northside neighborhoods. The cost is reasonable. It is beautiful. 2. Select the 200 + 1 bridge level. This will provide excellent flood reduction benefits over the current bridge. Also, Bella Vista residents and city staff recommendations appear to concur on this point. Select the 200 + 1 level for Dubuque Street. This level will provide significant additional protection for traffic over the existing roadway. As the Public Works Director's "Level of Protection" chart shows, the 200 + 1 foot level is actually one inch above the 2008 flood level. (Specifically, the chart states it is "11 inches below the 2008 +1 foot level." See bottom of Page 2 of January 15, 2014 memo from Rick Fosse, in your packet.) Also, because it provides the Northside neighborhoods an additional (and not insignificant) eleven inches of protection from the negative impacts of Dubuque's traffic, 200 + 1 is a better balance of all the stakeholders' needs than 2008 + 1. Finally, it involves less earth moving and will help prevent construction sedimentation from entering the Iowa River. Thank you for your hard work, Julie Myers Brown Street Neighborhood January 21, 2014 Jacobsen - Coulter House Mayor Matthew Hayek Members of the City Council City of Iowa City, Iowa Re: Iowa City Gateway Project Dear Mayor Hayek and Members of Council: I urge you to reject the City of Iowa City Public Works Department recommendation to raise Dubuque Street to the 2008yr. + 1 level and the elevation of the Park Road Bridge to a 200yr. + 1 level. Rather, I would request the Council to support a more modest proposal that would: elevate North Dubuque Street to no more than the 100yr. +1 level; design an esthetically appropriate bridge structure, with sufficient elevation to avoid Iowa River backwater retention; and redirect /redesign an elevated North Dubuque Street, in collaboration and agreement with all affected property owners, to minimize impacts to, and preserve, the historical properties, the local ecology, and the safety of the Iowa City community. I am the owner /resident of the Jacobsen - Coulter House, 1818 North Dubuque Street. This 2.4 acre property is situated on a bluff overlooking the Iowa River, with over 1000ft. (330yd.) frontage on North Dubuque Street, with driveway and access to the house and garages directly at the street level. The house and garages were constructed of hand -cut fieldstone in 1929, by Dr. H.H. and Sylvela Jacobsen. I purchased the house and property in 1986 from the Jacobsen Estate and have sought to preserve the historical character of all of the house, garage and grounds. The Jacobsen- Coulter house has been deemed eligible for listing on the National Register of Historical Places. I have previously registered my concerns about the Gateway Project Preferred Alternative design, and find the current Public Works Department proposal before you tonight, to be unacceptable for the following reasons (see also attached Handout). The planned elevation of N. Dubuque Street by 10 -15 ft. above the present roadway along and in front of my property at 1818 N. Dubuque Street would: 1. Significantly detract from the aesthetic, historical, and property value of the house, garages, stairway and landscaping of the property; 2. Increase the vehicular and pedestrian traffic and consequent noise, trash and other ecological damage to the properties residents, the house, garden /lawns and other areas of the property, and adjacent properties of the Ball Heights neighborhood; 3. Create a safety hazard to both vehicular and pedestrian traffic, especially in proximity to the garage area in front of the house which would fall sharply to 10-15 ft. below the level of the planned roadway and sidewalk; 4. Result insubstantial flooding potential along the front of the property facing N. Dubuque St., and the Foster Road /Bjaysville lane, especially in the area of the garages, as no provision for storm water drainage from the property, the Foster Road /Bjaysville Lane, the Ridge Road street, and Ball Heights areas are part of the plan; S. Restrict owner and guest access to the garages, and parking, for the property, and stairway access to the front of the house; 6. Result in loss of the south portion of the property, with a redirection of Ridge Road, into a smaller northern section with the house and garages, and further increasing vehicular and pedestrian traffic and consequent noise, trash and ecological damage to the area, including Ball Heights; 7. Fails to provide any plan for continued access to City /public services including USPS mail /package delivery, refuse /garbage pick -up /removal, fire protection (hydrant access), gas, water and sewage services. I am further concerned by the failure of the City, the State Historical Preservation Office (SHPO), the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Iowa Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the National Environmental Policy Act to consult with and develop a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with affected property owners to "minimize" and "mitigate" the adverse effects of the Gateway Project. As articulated in the federal Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) letter of September 13, 2013 to Mr. Mike La Pietra, (Iowa FHWA), concerning the Gateway Project: "We recommend FHWA and DOT to reopen the Section 106 review, reengage the SHPO, invite concerned property owners to be consulting partners, and consult to develop a MOA to resolve the adverse effect to historic properties." To date, there have been no consultations, and no MOA have been developed with affected property owners. The Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) recently provided by Mr. La Pietra regarding the Dubuque Street, Park Road, and Park Road Bridge Improvements (Project No. HDP- 371652)- 71.;52 would therefore appear to be invalid. I have subsequently been in contact with my attorneys who have advised me that the FONSI is deficient in a number of other areas, in addition to the absence of the MOA. I must advise you that action by the City Council on the Gateway Project and the Public Works Recommendations before you tonight, in the absence of a valid FONSI, may put the City at risk of legal action.

On January 21, 2014, the City Council will hold a public hearing on Amendment #1 to the Heinz Road Urban Renewal Plan. History /background: The Heinz Road Urban Renewal Area was created in 2002 to assist our manufacturing community with economic development initiatives. The City has assisted with three expansion projects in the area (two with Alpla, Inc., and one with United Natural Foods. Inc.) and has been approached to assist with another. In order for the City to participate in a new economic development project in an urban renewal area, the corresponding plan must be amended to include it. The procedure to amend an urban renewal area first requires a resolution of necessity (approved 12/3/13). After that and prior to a public hearing, the City must hold a consultation with affected taxing entities. Staff invited representatives to a taxing consultation meeting at 11:30 a.m. on December 19, 2013 to discuss the effects of the use of tax increment financing to the County and the Iowa City Community School District. Letters of invitation, an official meeting notice and a copy of Amendment #1 to the Heinz Road Urban Renewal plan were mailed to the Johnson County Board of Supervisors and to the Iowa City Community School District. No representatives attended, however Wendy Ford did attend the Johnson County Board of Supervisors meeting earlier the same day to explain the purpose of the amendment and to answer supervisor's questions. Neither of the taxing entities responded in writing with any concerns about the plan. Solution: Having completed the required steps to amend an urban renewal area, the proposed Amendment #1 to the Heinz Road Urban Renewal Plan may now be officially considered by City Council. Amending the plan will enable the City to assist in an economic development project with one of its industrial employers. The proposed project is another with Alpla, Inc. It was first proposed to the City Council Economic Development Committee (EDC) in March, 2012, when Alpla was applying for State funds and needed a resolution of intent from the City to provide local matching funds. The EDC then recommended to City Council a resolution of intent (12 -184) to January 14, 2014 Page 2 fund a four year, $170,000 TIF rebate, which Council approved for the local match to State funds. Recommendation: Staff recommends adoption of the proposed Amendment #1 to the Heinz Road Urban Renewal Plan. Prepared by: Wendy Ford, 410 E.

Introduction Alpla, Inc. is a plastic bottle manufacturer with a plant located in the Heinz Road Industrial Area. They have chosen Iowa City over another of their locations for an expansion, in part, because of the City Council's March, 2012 Resolution of Intent to provide financial assistance for a local match to State funds. City Council must now consider a resolution accepting the Development Agreement stipulating the source and use of the funds. In short, the Development Agreement provides for four (4) years of TIF rebates, not to exceed a total of $170,000 in exchange for the company building a 10,000 square foot addition to the plant and adding 37 jobs to the existing 225. History /Background The company is headquartered in Austria and employs more than 12,000 people worldwide. They opened an Iowa City plant in 2003 with 35 employees, and now employ 225 with an annual payroll of approximately $11.4 million. The City of Iowa City assisted Alpla when they located here in 2003, and again in 2007 for an expansion. The first project was for the construction of an additional 86,000 square feet that enabled warehousing and distribution at the plant, and Council approved a 5 year TIF rebate with a maximum of $510,000. Performance measures to maintain 35 full time employees and increase the assessed value of the property were met and exceeded. The second project involved construction of another 82,200 square feet of manufacturing space, for which Council approved a 4 year TIF rebate with a cap of $600,000. Again, performance metrics of valuation and employment numbers were exceeded. Today, Alpla's assessed valuation of $9 million is $5.4 million more than it was in FY 2005. Discussion of Solution Alpla will invest $12.2 million in this expansion project. Approximately $1 million will be taxable valuation while the rest is in machinery, equipment and people. While the taxable value of the addition to Alpla is modest by comparison to earlier expansions, the new jobs and the research and technology going in to the new product is substantial. With respect to the last two projects, and the requirement for a local match to State funding, staff has calculated that 4 years of TIF rebates based on the new value created by the addition alone, would be approximately $170,000. 01'21-1'4" January 14, 2014 Page 2 Recommendation and Justification Staff recommends approval of the Development Agreement with Alpla for four years of TIF rebates on the new value created by their expansion, in exchange for the creation of 37 new jobs at the plant. Alpla is an innovator of new technologies and consistently seeks to compete in their industry. They are a responsible corporate citizen, having addressed and corrected neighborhood concerns of noise by installing baffles and screening. Assisting Alpla is aligned with the Iowa City Strategic Plan goal of striving to expand and diversify the economic base of the community, particularly in existing planned commercial and industrial areas that have established supporting infrastructure. It is also consistent with our adopted Economic Development Policies of attracting new development, retaining existing businesses, and encouraging and fostering spin -off business. The City Council Economic Development Committee voted 2 -0 (Hayek absent) on March 20, 2102 to recommend City Council support of the financial incentive request of an economic development grant that would provide 4 years of TIF rebates capped at $170,000.

ARTICLE VII. ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER Section 7.1. Status of the Developer; Transfer of Substantially All Assets.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, or any other provisions of this Agreement, (a) Developer may transfer its interest in and to this Agreement to any affiliate which is controlled by, under common control with or controls Developer or to any entity that acquires all or substantially all of the assets of the Developer or to any corporate -11- successor to Developer by consolidation, merger, or otherwise, and (b) the Developer may (1) pledge any and/or all of its assets as security for any financing of the Minimum Improvements; (2) assign its rights under this Agreement to a third party, provided such assignment shall not release the Developer of its obligations hereunder, and the City agrees in writing that Developer may assign its interest under this Agreement for such purpose; and (3) the Developer may transfer its ownership interest to a third -party under an arrangement whereby Developer will lease the Development Property back and continue to satisfy the requirements of this Agreement provided that the City agrees in writing to such arrangement.. ARTICLE VIII. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT GRANTS Section 8.1. Economic Development Grants. (a) For and in consideration of the obligations being assumed by the Developer hereunder, and in furtherance of the goals and objectives of the Urban Renewal Plan for the Project Area and the Urban Renewal Act, the City agrees to snake up to four (4) annual grants to the Developer, subject to the Developer having received a Certificate of Completion and being and remaining in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and subject to the terms of this Article VIII. The annual grants shall commence on June 1, 2016 and end on June 1, 2019, or when the total of all grants is equal to $170,000, whichever is sooner. All annual grants shall be equal to one hundred percent (100 %) per fiscal year of the Tax Increments (unless the total grant amount of $170,000 is reached first) collected by the City with respect to the Minimum Improvements on the Development Property pursuant to Section 403.19 of the Urban Renewal Act under the terms of the Ordinance (without regard to any averaging that may otherwise be utilized under Section 403.19(6) and excluding any interest that may accrue thereon prior to payment to the Developer) during the preceding twelve -month period in respect of the Minimum Improvements, but subject to adjustment and conditions precedent as provided in this Article (such payments being referred to collectively as the "Economic Development Grants "). (b) The obligation of the City to snake an Economic Development Grant to the Developer in any year as specified above shall be subject to and conditioned upon the timely filing by the Developer of all previous annual statements, proofs and certifications required under Section 6.6 hereof and the City Manager's approval thereof. Beginning with the November 1, 2014 certification, if the Developer's annual statement, proof and certification is timely filed and contains the information required under Section 6.6 and the City Manager approves of the same, the City shall certify to the County prior to December 1 of that year its request for the available Tax Increments resulting from the -12- assessments imposed by the County as of January 1 of that year, to be collected by the City as taxes are paid during the following fiscal year and which shall thereafter be disbursed to the Developer on June 1 of the following fiscal year. (For example, if the Developer and the City each so certify on November and December 2014, respectively, the first Economic Development Grant would be paid to the Developer on June 1, 2016). (c) In the event that the annual statement, proof or certificate required to be delivered by the Developer under Section 6.7 is not delivered to the City by November 1 of any year, the Developer recognizes and agrees that the City may have insufficient time to review and approve the same and certify its request for Tax Increments to the County and that, as a result, no Economic Development Grant may be made to the Developer in respect thereof. The City covenants to act in good faith to appropriately review and consider any late certification on the part of the Developer, but the City shall not be obligated to make any certification to the County for the available Tax Increments or make any corresponding payment of the Economic Development Grant to the Developer if, in the reasonable judgment of the City, it is not able to give appropriate consideration (which may include, but not be limited to, specific discussion before the City Council at a regular City Council meeting with respect thereto) to the Developer's certification due to its late filing. In the event Developer fails to timely file an annual statement, proof or certificate due to an Unavoidable Delay and, as a result, an Economic Development Grant cannot be made, Developer may give written notice to the City and, if the City finds that Developer's failure is due to an Unavoidable Delay, the missed Economic Development Grant shall be made in the year succeeding the last scheduled Economic Development Grant under Section 8. 1, subject to Developer's filing under Section 6.6 and all other provisions of this Article VIII with respect to such grant, it being the intention of the parties to allow four (4) annual Economic Development Grants if Developer is in compliance with this Agreement. (d) The total, aggregate amount of all Economic Development Grants under this Agreement shall not exceed $170,000. Each Economic Development Grant shall be equal to one hundred percent (100 %) of all Tax Increments collected per fiscal year in respect of the assessments imposed on the Development Property due to the Minimum Improvements as of January 1, 2015, and on January 1 of each of the following four (4) years, until the total, aggregate of all such Economic Development Grants equals no more than the sum of $170,000. The final grant shall be adjusted, if necessary, if payment of 100% of Tax Increments for that grant would result in total, aggregate Economic Development Grants in an amount exceeding $170,000. Such Economic Development Grants shall at all times be subject to termination in accordance with the terms of this Article VIII and Article X. Thereafter, the taxes levied on the -13- Development Property and Minimum Improvements shall be divided and applied in accordance with the Urban Renewal Act and the Ordinance. It is recognized by all parties that the total aggregate amount set forth above is a maximum amount only and that the actual payment amounts will be determined after the Minimum Improvements are completed and the valuations of said Improvements have been determined by the City Assessor. (e) In the event that any certificate filed by the Developer under Section 6.6 or other information available to the City discloses the existence or prior occurrence of an Event of Default that was not cured or cannot reasonably be cured under the provisions of Section 10.2 (or an event that, with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would become an Event of Default that cannot reasonably be cured under the provisions of Section 10.2), the City shall have no obligation thereafter to make any further payments to the Developer in respect of the Economic Development Grants and may proceed to take one or more of the actions described in Section 10.2 hereof. Section 8.2. Source of Grant Funds Limited. (a) The Economic Development Grants shall be payable from and secured solely and only by amounts deposited and held in the ALPLA, INC. — Alpla TIF Account No. 3 of the City. The City hereby covenants and agrees to maintain the Ordinance in force during the term hereof and to apply the incremental taxes collected in respect of the Minimum Improvements and allocated to the ALPLA, INC. - Alpla TIF Account No. 3 to pay the Economic Development Grants, as and to the extent set forth in Section 8.1 hereof. The Economic Development Grants shall not be payable in any manner by other tax increment revenues or by general taxation or from any other City funds. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.1 hereof, the City shall have no obligation to make an Economic Development Grant to the Developer if at any time during the term hereof the City receives an opinion of its legal counsel or a controlling decision of an Iowa court having jurisdiction over the subject matter hereof to the effect that the use of Tax Increments resulting from the Minimum Improvements to fund an Economic Development Grant to the Developer, as contemplated under said Section 8. 1, is not authorized or otherwise an appropriate project activity permitted to be undertaken by the City under the Urban Renewal Act or other applicable provisions of the Code, as then constituted. Upon receipt of such an opinion or decision, the City shall promptly forward a copy of the same to the Developer. If the circumstances or legal constraints giving rise to the opinion or decision continue for a period during which two (2) Economic Development Grants would otherwise have been paid to the Developer under -14- the teens of Section 8. 1, the City may terminate this Agreement, without penalty or other liability to the Developer, by written notice to the Developer. (c) The City makes no representation with respect to the amounts that may finally be paid to the Developer as the Economic Development Grants, and under no circumstances shall the City in any manner be liable to the Developer so long as the City timely applies the Tax Increments actually collected and held in the ALPLA, INC. - Alpla TIF Account No. 3 (regardless of the amounts thereof) to the payment of the Economic Development Grants to the Developer, as and to the extent described in this Article. Section 8.3. Use of Other Tax Increments. Subject to this Article VIII, the City shall be free to use any and all Tax Increments collected in respect of increases in valuation on the Development Property unrelated to construction of the Minimum Improvements (i.e. increases in assessed or actual value due to market factors), any other properties within the Project Area, or any available Tax Increments resulting from the suspension or termination of the Economic Development Grants under Section 8.1 hereof, for any purpose for which the Tax Increments may lawfully be used pursuant to the provisions of the Urban Renewal Act, and the City shall have no obligations to the Developer with respect to the use thereof. ARTICLE IX. INDEMNIFICATION Section 9.1. Release and Indemnification Covenants. (a) The Developer releases the City and the governing body members, officers, agents, servants and employees thereof (hereinafter, for purposes of this Article IX, the "indemnified parties ") from, covenants and agrees that the indemnified parties shall not be liable for, and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the indemnified parties against, any loss or damage to property or any injury to or death of any person occurring at or about or resulting from any defect in the Minimum Improvements. (b) Except for any willful misrepresentation or any willful or wanton misconduct or any unlawful act of the indemnified parties, the Developer agrees to protect and defend the indemnified parties, now or forever, and further agrees to hold the indemnified parties harmless, from any claim, demand, suit, action or other proceedings whatsoever by any person or entity whatsoever arising or purportedly arising from (i) any violation of any agreement or condition of this Agreement (except with respect to any suit, action, demand or other proceeding brought by the Developer against the City to enforce its rights under -15- this Agreement), (ii) the acquisition and condition of the Development Property and the construction, installation, ownership, and operation of the Minimum Improvements or (iii) any hazardous substance or enviromnental contamination located in or on the Development Property relating to conditions caused by Developer after the effective date of this Agreement. (c) The indemnified parties shall not be liable for any damage or injury to the persons or property of the Developer or its officers, agents, servants or employees or any other person who may be on or about the Development Property or the Minimum Improvements due to any act of negligence of any person, other than any act of negligence on the part of any such indemnified party or its officers, agents, servants or employees. (d) All covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements and obligations of the City contained herein shall be deemed to be the covenants, stipulations, promises, agreements and obligations of the City, and not of any governing body member, officer, agent, servant or employee of the City in the individual capacity thereof. (e) The provisions of this Article IX shall survive the termination of this Agreement. ARTICLE X. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES Section 10.1. Events of Default Defined. The following shall be "Events of Default" under this Agreement and the term "Event of Default" shall mean, whenever it is used in this Agreement, any one or more of the following events: (a) Failure by the Developer to cause the construction of the Minimum Improvements to be commenced and completed pursuant to the terms, conditions and limitations of Article III of this Agreement; (b) Transfer of any interest in this Agreement or the assets of the Developer in violation of the provisions of Article VII of this Agreement; (c) Failure by the Developer to substantially observe or perform any covenant, condition, obligation or agreement on its part to be observed or performed under this Agreement; -16- (d) If the holder of any Mortgage on the Development Property, or any improvements thereon, or any portion thereof, commences foreclosure proceedings as a result of any default under the applicable Mortgage documents; (e) If the Developer shall: (A) file any petition in bankruptcy or for any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under the United States Bankruptcy Act of 1978, as amended, or under any similar federal or state law; or (B) make an assigmnent for the benefit of its creditors; or (C) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or (D) be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent; or if a petition or answer proposing the adjudication of the Developer as a bankrupt or its reorganization under any present or future federal bankruptcy act or any similar federal or state law shall be filed in any court and such petition or answer shall not be discharged or denied within ninety (90) days after the filing thereof; or a receiver, trustee or liquidator of the Developer or the Minimum Improvements, or part thereof, shall be appointed in any proceedings brought against the Developer, and shall not be discharged within ninety (90) days after such appointment, or if the Developer shall consent to or acquiesce in such appointment; or (f) If any representation or warranty made by the Developer in this Agreement, or made by the Developer in any written statement or certificate furnished by the Developer pursuant to this Agreement, shall prove to have been incorrect, incomplete or misleading in any material respect on or as of the date of the issuance or making thereof.

Check the box next to the reason why assistance is en eded to complete this project. ❑ Financing Gap - The Business can only raise a portion of the debt and equity necessary to complete the project. A gap between sources and uses exists and state and /or federal funds are needed to fill the gap. ❑ Rate of Return Gap - The Business can raise sufficient debt and equity to complete the project, but the returns are inadequate to motivate an "economic person" to proceed with the project. Project risks outweigh the rewards. ® Location Disadvantage (Incentive) - The Business is deciding between a site in Iowa (site A) and a site in another state (site B) for its project. The Business argues that the project will cost less at site B and will require a subsidy to equalize costs in order to locate at site A. The objective here is to quantify the cost differential between site A and site B.
