INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to seek acceptance of a Quit Claim Deed from Switch
Homes, LLC, conveying their interest in certain highway access rights across part of The Farm
Subdivision in the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
BACKGROUND
Per City Resolution 132-24 approving and attached to the Final Plat of The Farm dated May 2,
2024, and recorded June 4, 2024, as Instrument 2024-00004916 of the records of the Dubuque
County Recorder, Switch Homes, LLC, was to convey to the City of Dubuque all rights of access
to the Northwest Arterial at Highway Station 73+00. These rights were originally granted to
Lime Rock Springs Co. their and heirs and assigns, by Corrected State Land Patent from the
State of Iowa to Lime Rock Springs Co. dated December 14, 2013, and recorded December 19,
2013, as Instrument 2013-00019168 of the records of the Dubuque County Recorder. Switch
Homes, LLC is the current owner of the property. As the new subdivision access point on the
Northwest Arterial does not align with said Station 73+00 location, it is necessary to eliminate
rights to the former access point. The new access point is now a public street which was
dedicated to the City of Dubuque and located at the intersection of the Northwest Arterial and
Uphill Both Ways Road. Please refer to Exhibit A attached showing the access location at
Station 73+00 and the intersection of Northwest Arterial and Uphill Both Ways Road.
DISCUSSION
Switch Homes, LLC has executed the attached Quit Claim Deed conveying all their interest in
said highway access rights to the City of Dubuque.
RECOMMENDATION
I would, therefore, recommend that the City Council accept the Quit Claim Deed from Switch
Homes, LLC conveying all their interest in said highway access rights to the City of Dubuque
over part of The Farm Subdivision in the City of Dubuque, Iowa.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
I respectfully request that the City Council accept the Quit Claim Deed from Switch Homes, LLC
through the adoption of the attached resolution.
