Authorizing the Mayor To sign and The City Clerk To attest
certain easement agreements and accepting the Dedication
of right-of-way to facilitate the development of Hoover (East)
Elementary School In Iowa City, Iowa.
Comment: In order to facilitate the development of the new Hoover
Elementary School being constructed at along American Legion Road SE,
it is necessary for the School District and the Lacinas to dedicate certain
easements and rights-of-way to the City. No subdivision was required for
this project, therefore these dedications are occurring as part of the site
plan review process.

hypochlorite for the City's Wastewater Division.

1-1 - Xa 8 Item 3d(3)
Amendment to Development Agreement - Resolution
approving Amendment #3 to an Agreement for Private
Development by and between the City of Iowa City, Iowa
and Riverview West, L.L.C. formerly known as EMRICO
Properties II, L.L.C.
Comment: This amendment to the development agreement (resolution 14-
440, passed December 2, 2014) for the Riverside West apartments at 629
S. Riverside Drive extends the TIF rebate timeframe by one year. The total
TIF subsidy for the project remains the same. Construction delays
prevented timely lease -ups and thus, the affordable housing rental units
were not able to be leased in time to certify for the first TIF rebate. Because
of the delay, the first rebate will be a partial rebate and the developer will
have the opportunity to make up the difference by the extended timeframe.
In exchange, the affordability requirements will also be extended by one
year.
Item 3d(4) ICCSD use of Mercer pool - Resolution authorizing the City
Manager to sign an agreement with Iowa City Community
School District for use of Mercer pool.
Comment: The City and the ICCSD previously entered into an agreement
for use of the swimming pool in 1987, which is expiring. This is a 5 -year
agreement in which the ICCSD pays a $94,000 annual usage fee and a
$25,000 annual fee toward the capital expenses of the overall operations of
Mercer Recreational Facility. The ICCSD may renew it every 5 years. The
ICCSD approved the agreement at the June 27 School Board meeting.
Item 3d(5) Disburse budgeted funds - Resolution approving the
disbursement of budgeted FY18 funds to the Iowa City
UNESCO City of Literature, Riverside Theatre, Film Scene
and the Entrepreneurial Development Center.
Comment: The City Council Economic Development Committee entertains
requests for funding organizations that further economic development
activities. The committee has approved recommendations in various ways
for funding these organizations and the amounts were budgeted in the
FY18 budget. This resolution approves the disbursement of budgeted
funds.

Item 10. American Legion Road and Barrington Road Speed Limits -
Consider an ordinance amending Title 9, Entitled "Motor Vehicles
and Traffic," Chapter 3, Entitled "Rules of the Road," Section 6,
Entitled "Speed Restrictions," Subsection B, Entitled "Exceptions"
to establish a maximum allowable speed of 35 mph on American
Legion Road between the intersection of Scott Boulevard and
Taft Avenue and amending Subsection C, Entitled "School
Speed Zones" to establish a 20 mph school speed zone for
Hoover Elementary School. (First Consideration)
Comment: Iowa City Code defines the maximum speed limit on "American Legion
Road" between Scott Boulevard and Taft Avenue as "45 mph. This action will
reduce the maximum allowable speed to 35 mph in anticipation of the opening of
the new Hoover Elementary in August 2017 and reflect the new design speed of
American Legion Road when reconstructed in 2020. City Code also does not
currently include a school speed zone for the new school. This action will also
allow for the implementation of a 20 mph school speed zone adjacent to the new
school.
