This memo transmits for City Council review and approval, a pre -annexation agreement
with Terrence L. and Barbara Bahl, property owner, in conjunction with their request to
connect to City water. This agreement and related materials are attached.
DISCUSSION
The approximately 1.04 acre (45,302 sf) subject property is located at 15461
Southwood Court in Dubuque County, and as part of connecting to the City's water
main, a pre -annexation agreement must be signed. There is no plan to annex the
property at this time. In accordance with this requirement, Legal staff has prepared the
attached pre -annexation agreement, with the standard ten-year transition in City's share
of property taxes as an incentive.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council approve the Terrence L. and Barbara Bahl pre -
annexation agreement and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement on behalf of the
City of Dubuque.
