Resolutions and Motions: ITEM 2d(1) PRAIRIE HILL FINAL OPD - RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE A DEVELOPER'S AGREEMENT AND EASEMENT AGREEMENTS, AND ACCEPTING THE DEDICATION THEREOF, ASSOCIATED WITH THE FINAL PLANNED _ DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY (OPD) PLAN FOR PRAIRIE HILL, IOWA CITY, IOWA. Comment: The preliminary Planned Development Overlay Plan (OPD) for Prairie Hill, a 33 -unit co -housing development located on Miller Avenue west of Benton Street was approved on July 15, 2015. The final OPD plan is approved administratively, but an associated developer's agreement and easements for shared access and utilities must be approved by resolution of the City Council. ITEM 2d(2) SIDEWALK CAFE POLICY - RESOLUTION REVISING THE SIDEWALK CAFE POLICY TO WAIVE THE ANNUAL FEE AND TO REQUIRE TEMPORARY FENCING DURING THE STREETSCAPE PROJECT ON WASHINGTON STREET. /4, -1q Comment: The streetscape project on Washington St. will entail full sidewalk and roadway pavement removal making sidewalk cafe spaces unavailable at times, and even when space is available, the outdoor dining atmosphere is likely to suffer. When the sidewalks open back up, the public improvements will not yet be formally accepted, and it is not prudent to allow businesses to drill into the newly poured sidewalk until the project is completely closed out. Additionally, staff intends to require all cafes to be detached from the building face beginning in 2017 to promote a better retail environment and to provide consistency in travel path. As a result, staff recommends that the annual fee (i.e., the "rent") be waived and that temporary fencing be required in 2016 for the cafes located on Washington Street. ITEM 2d(3) MOBILE AND AMBULATORY VENDING FEES - RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING MOBILE VENDING PERMIT AND AMBULATORY VENDING PERMIT FEES AND RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 12- 488. Comment: Mobile vending (food carts operating on the ped mall) permit fees are set by Council resolution. Staff recommends increasing the annual fee from $1,000 to $1,500 and the electricity fee (applies only if the vendor accesses City electricity) to $300. The increase in the annual fee appropriately compensates the City for the commercial use of the ped mall by a private business. The proposed electricity fee more accurately reflects the cost of providing and maintaining that service.

City Staff desires to expand the scope of engineering services of the Consultant to provide additional utility relocation assistance, public coordination, and permitting services for the Project.

The City entered into a second agreement in 2014 that expired on Jan. 15, 2016, and staff recommends entering into a new one-year agreement along the same terms as the prior one. The monthly fee of $6,630 remains the same. The agreement may be extended for one year. The services are being procured on a sole -source basis consistent with the requirements of the Purchasing Manual.

Comment: During the course of constructing this subdivision, which was approved in 2013, the utility companies requested that the developer grant a wider utility easement than it had granted with the original subdivision in order to accommodate the various utilities installed within this easement area. This resolution approves the dedication of an additional 5' wide utility easement, making the total easement area 20'. The terms of the easement agreement are substantially identical to those in the original utility easement agreement. Staff recommends approval. ITEM 2d(13) ICDD FUNDRAISING . RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH THE IOWA CITY DOWNTOWN DISTRICT FOR FUNDRAISING EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE ART WORK PORTION OF THE NORTH PEDESTRIAN MALL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT AT A NOT TO EXCEED COST OF $50,000. Comment: In 2014 the City Council formally adopted the Iowa City Downtown and Pedestrian Mall Master Plan, which called for a significant public art piece to anchor the north end of the Pedestrian Mall. A concept of the art work was recently unveiled and the Iowa City Downtown District (TCDD) has volunteered to lead fundraising efforts. The resolution provides the City Manager the authority to execute an agreement with the ICDD for fundraising expenses at a not to exceed amount of $50,000.

(SECOND CONSIDERATION) Comment: At its December 3 meeting, by a vote of 7-0, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of this zoning code amendment.

Form -based zoning standards will ensure that buildings are appropriately scaled and designed to fit into an urban setting in an area that transitions to lower -scale residential neighborhoods in the Central Planning District further to the east.
