INTRODUCTION
FROM: Gus Psihoyos, City Engineer
DATE: November 5, 2008
SUBJECT: Hohnecker Land Donation
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide you and the City Council a recommendation on the
donation of land behind Fire Station No. 2 on John F. Kennedy Road from Hohnecker, Inc. to the City
of Dubuque.
DISCUSSION
Fire Chief Dan Brown has had previous conversations with Mr. John Hohnecker of Hohnecker Gifts
concerning the donation of a 50- by 165-foot piece of property for use by Fire Station No. 2 for future
expansion of the parking lot. This donation would add 50 feet in depth along the entire width of the
existing lot for the fire station on John F. Kennedy Road. The northerly portion of the donated parcel
has an existing parking area for 5 vehicles and storm sewer that serves Hohnecker's lot.
Chief Brown and Mr. Hohnecker agreed to let Hohnecker, Inc. use the existing parking area until such
time as the City wishes to expand the facilities at the fire station. A Revocable License has been
signed by Mr. Hohnecker that addresses the issues agreed upon.
In order to not create a nonconforming lot that did not have frontage on a public street, the lot created
from the Hohnecker parcel was replatted and combined with the fire station lot. Thus, the resolution
to approve the plat of Lot 1 of Hohnecker Place No. 2.
RECOMMENDATION
would recommend the gift of Lot 2 of Hohnecker Place be accepted.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to accept the property donation of Hohnecker Incorporated and that the
attached resolution approving the plat and accepting the deed be approved.
