Eminent Domain and Relocation Requirements
The City of Dubuque anticipates a potential need to acquire and relocate one or more existing

There are, to the knowledge of the City of Dubuque, no residential properties currently located
within the Development Area.
VII. FINANCING ACTIVITIES
.To meet the OBJECTIVES of this Plan and to encourage the development of the District and private
investment therein, the City of Dubuque is prepared to provide financial assistance to qualified
businesses through the mak/ng of loans or grants under Chapter 15A of the Iowa Code and through
the use of tax increment fmancing under Chapter 403 of the Iowa Code.
ChaCter t5A Loan or Grant
The City of Dubuque has determined that the making of loans or grants of public funds to qualified
businesses is necessary to aid in the plarm/ng, undertaldng and completion of urban renewal projects
authorized under this Plan within the meaning of Section 384.24(3)(q) of the Iowa Code.
Accordingly, in fartherance of the OBJECTIVES of this Plan, the City of Dubuque may determine
to issue bonds or make loans or grants, in reliance upon the authority of Section 384.24A, Section
o 84.24 (.~)(q), Section 40~. t_ (,eneral obhgatmn bonds) or Sectmn 40~.9 (tax increment bonds), for
the purpose of making loans or grants of public funds to qualified businesses. Alternatively, the City
may determine to use available funds for the making of such loans or grants. In determining
qualifications of recipients and whether to make any such individual loans or grants, the City of
Dubuque shall consider all of the factors set forth in Sectien 15A. 1 of the Iowa Code on a case~by-
case basis.
Tax Increment Financina
The C. ity of Dubuque is prepared to utilize tax increment financing as a means of financing eligible
costs ~ncurred in furtherance of this Plan. Bonds or loans or grants may be issued by the City under
the authority of Section 403.9 of the Ioxva Code (tax increment bonds) or Section 384.24A, Section
384.24(3)(q) and Section 403.12 (general obligation bonds).
The City acknowledges that the use of tax increment revenues delays the ability of other local taxing
bodies to realize inunediately the direct tax benefits of new development in the District and the City,
County and School District may receive less tax revenue during the duration of this Plan than they
would have received if this Plan ~vere not implemented. The City believes, however, that the use
5
of tax increment revenues to finance the public improvements and to promote private investment in
the District is necessary in the public interest to achieve the OBJECTIVES of this Plan. Without the
use oft. his special f'mancing tool, new investment may not other~vise occur. If new development
does not take place in Dubuque, property values could stagnate.
Tax increment financing will provide a long-term payback in overall increased tax base for the City,
County and School District. The initial public investment required to generate new private
investment will ultimately increase the taxable value of the District well beyond its current value.
Tax increment reimbursement may be sought for, among other things, the following costs to the
extent they are incurred by the City:
Planning and administration of the Plan;
Pre-development planning, site planning, design and engineering;
Construction or reconstruction of public improvements, amenities and facilities within the
District;
Acquisition of land and preparation of same for sale or lease to private developers, including
any "write down" of the sale price ofth~ land;
Consla-uction of buildings or facilities to be sold or leased to businesses;
Environmental assessment and remediation;
Loa~. s or grants to qualified businesses under Chapter 15A of the Iowa Code, including debt
service payments on any bonds issued to finance such loans or grants;
Providing the local matching share for CEBA, RISE and or other local, state and federal
grants and loans.
Proposed Amount of Indebtedness
At this time, the extent of improvements and new development within the District is only generally
known. As such, the amount and duration of use of the tax increment revenues for public
improvements and/or private development can only be est/mated. The actual use and amount of tax
increment revenues to be used by the City for District activities will be determined at the time
specific development is proposed.
tt is anticipated that the maximum amount of indebtedness, including principal, interest and City
advances, which w/ll qualify for tax increment revenue reimbursement during the duration of this
Plan, including acquisition, public improvements and private development assistance, will not
exceed $35,000,000.
At the time of adoption of the Plan, the City of Dubuque's current general obligation debt is
$8,095,000 (a list of obligations is found as Attachment E) and the applicable constitutional debt
limit is $103,883,600.
VIII. STATE AxND LOCAL REQUIREblENTS
Ail provisions necessary, to conform with state and local law have been complied ~vith by the City
of Dubuque in the adoption of this Plan and its supporting documents.
DURATION OF APPROVED URBAN RENEWAL PLAN
This Plan shall be in effect for a period of thirty (30) years from adoption or amendment of this
Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan or until such t/me that the City of Dubuque has received
full reimbursement from all incremental taxes of its advances and principal and interest payable on
all Tax Increment Financing or general obligations issued to carry out the OBJECTIVES of the
District.
X. SEVERABILITY
In the event one or more provisions contained ih this Plan shall be held for any reason to be invalid,
illegal, unauthorized or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, unauthorization or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Plan and this Plan shall be construed and
implemented as if such provision had never been contained herein.

After considering all of the factors affecting Market Value, it is my

Recreational property, as of September 13, 2000 is estimated to be $1,093,000.
Sincerely,
Iowa Certified General
Real Property Appraiser

STATEMENT OF THE APPRAISAL PROBLEM:
PURPOSE: The purpose of this appraisal is to estimate the Market Value of the
subject property consisting of a total of 182,124 sq.ft, of
Commercial/Recreational land.
DEFINITION: MARKET VALUE is defined by The Appraisal Foundation in its Uniform
Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice as "the most probable price which a
property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions,
requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently,
knowledgeable, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus.
Implicit in this definition is consummation of a sale as of a specific date and
passing title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
- Buyer and Seller are typically motivated;
- Both parties are well informed or well advised and both acting in what
he/she considers his/her own best interest;
- A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
- Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of
financial arrangements comparable thereto; and
- The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold
unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by
anyone associated with the sale."
AI~ALYSIS OF THE PROBLEM: The subject property consists of a 182,124 sq.ft.
parcel. The City of Dubuque is proposing to transform the property into a
Commercial/Recreational property. The plans include using the brewery as a
background for an e~nphitheater.
The appraisal process involves three approaches in estimating the value of
a property. They are the Cost (which includes the land value analysis) and the
Sales Comparison Approaches to value. This appraisal will not involve the
Income Approach, as the property is currently vacant and income figures are not
yet available on the prospective use. With the planned improvements along the
river front, the appraiser is confident the property will be able to attract
investors.
DATE OF APPKAISAL: The subject property was inspected formally on September 13,
2000. This was an exterior inspection. The appraiser inspected the interior of
the property on July 31, 1998.
SALE HISTORY: According to the Dubuque City Assessor's Office, there has not
been a sale on the property in the past five years.
PERSONAL PROPERTY: NO personal property is included in the value estimates
herein.
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS: The value estimate is based upon the assumption that there
are no hazardous materials in the buildings or the site. I am not q~alified to
discern the presence or absence of such materials (asbestos, underground tanks,
etc.), but I am aware that they can have a significant effect upon the value of
a property. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions or for any
expertise or engineering knowledge required discovering them.
A~4ERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT: The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
became effective January 26, 1992. The appraiser has not made a specific
compliance survey and analysis of this property to determine whether or not it
is in conformity with the various detailed requirements of the ADA. A detailed
survey could reveal that the property is not in compliance with one or more of
the requirements of the ADA, which could have a negative effect upon its value.
The property appears to be handicapped accessible.
LOCATION: The subject property is located on the eastern edge of Dubuque along
the Mississippi River. This land has all City amenities available.
Electricity, natural gas, telephone, water, and sewer are available to the
subject.
The access to the subject is U.S. Highway ~151/61, to Locust Street, to
Fourth Street. The immediate and surrounding areas are hea~; industrial, but
this is changing. The current trend is for commercial with the America's River
project.
LEGAL DESCRIPTION: The subject property is in the narae of the Aspermont Company.
The following is the legal description for the subject property as it is now.

FUNCTION OF THE APPRAISAL: The function of the appraisal is to assist the City
of Dubuque in obtaining a Market Value for the subject property with the
intended use as a Commercial/Recreational property.
PURPOSE AND DATE OF VALUATION: The purpose of the appraisal is to estimate the
market value of the fee simple estate of the subject property under the market
conditions prevailing on September 13, 2000.
SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL: The scope of the appraisal requires compliance with the
Uniform Standards of Professional Practice promulgated by the Appraisal
Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation and the Guide Notes to the Standards
of Professional Appraisal Practice adopted by the Appraisal Institute. The
standards contain binding requirements and specific guidelines that deal with
the procedures to be followed in developing an appraisal, analysis, or opinion.
These uniform standards set the requirements to communicate the appraiser's
analyses, opinions, and conclusions in a manner that will be meaningful and not
misleading in the marketplace.
MARKETING TIME OF THE SUBJECT: Based on the information contained in this
report, and the fact that the subject is located in a prime riverfront location,
the subject has a marketing time of three to nine months.
NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION: The subject is located on the far East side of
Dubuque. This is an older industrial neighborhood that is currently changing
into a Commercial/Recreational property.
The boundaries of the subject's neighborhood are the Mississippi River to
the East; U.S. #20 to the South; Main Street to the West; and U.S. #151/61 to
the North. The following properties are in the same area as the subject: the
Diamond Jo Casino, Harbor Place Mall, the Shot Tower, the Dubuque Star Brewery,
and the entire Ice Harbor area.
This is an established neighborhood with properties that have been in this
area for many years. It is also a riverfront area that is undergoing major
updates. The America's River project will enhance the entire area as a
Commercial/Recreational destination. The riverwalk and new hotel will also be a
great benefit to the subject property.
SITE DESCRIPTION: The subject's site contains a total of 182,124 sq.ft, or
acres. It is located on the eastern edge of Dubuque along the Mississippi
River. The City of Dubuque is proposing to construct an amphitheater with the
brewery as a backdrop.
Drainage appears to be adequate to the lot lines. No adverse easements or
encroachments were observed.
The subject is hooked up to City Sewer and Water. Ail city amenities are
available to the area including police and fire protection.
A review of the Flood Hazard Map shows the subject property is in the City
of Dubuque and appears to be in a Shaded Zone X on the FIRM Flood Insurance Rate
Map ~195180 0006 B. (Map Revised September 6, 1989). A Shaded Zone X is
interpreted to mean, "Areas of 500-year flood; areas of 100-year flood with
average depths of less than 1 foot or with drainage areas less than 1 square
miles; and areas protected by levees from 100-year flood." The City of Dubuque
does have a floodwall.
The subject is in an area zoned H-I, Heavy Industrial. However, the
appraiser is analyzing and estimating the Market Value of the subject property
as a Commercial/Recreational property. It is the appraiser's opinion that the
proposed use as a Commercial/Recreational property does represent one of the
highest and best uses that could be put to this site.
The streets leading to the subject property are fully improved city
streets.
The proposed amphitheater and walkway is considered to be an improvement
for the subject property.
The Highest and Best Use for the subject will be discussed in depth, but
the proposed use does represent one of the highest and best uses for the
subject.
THE APPRAISAL PROCESS
It is required by Uniform Standard of Professional Appraisal Practice
(USPAP), 1992 Edition, that the Market Value of a parcel of real property be
estimated by the use of three approaches to value. They are the Cost Approach,
the Income Approach, and the Sales Comparison Approach. The value indicated by
each approach will be carefully reviewed and that approach, which in the
judgement of the appraiser, most adequately and accurately reflects all the
circumstances in connection with the particular property under appraisement, and
the purpose for which the appraisal is bein§ made, will be selected as the best
indication of Market Value.
The Cost Approach is the summation of the land value and the value of the
improvements. The land value estimate is based on sales of similar vacant land
in the area. The value of the improvements is their estimated depreciated cost~
which represents that amount which they contribute to the value of the entire
property. This approach is not utilized in this appraisal, as the appraiser is
analyzing vacant land only.
The Income Approach is the capitalization of net income at a proper rate.
Net income is estimated using actual income and expenses when they reflect the
market, and using typical fi~/res from the market when actual figures are not
available. The rates are derived from the market, using sales of similar
properties and actual income and expenses when available or by using estimated
figures. This approach is not utilized, as the property being appraised is
vacant land.
The Sales Comparison Approach is the comparison of recent sales of
comparable properties as a guide to market value. If sales of properties having
the same features as the subject property are not available, sales of properties
having some or part of the same features will be considered~ and adjustments
will be made to indicate the market value of the subject property from these
transactions. This approach is utilized for the subject property.
LAND SALE ANALYSIS:
The appraiser's research has found sales of similar properties that have
sold within the past three years. They range from 4,939 sq.ft, to 210,518
sq.ft. They range in price per sq.ft, from $2.33 to $10.21 per sq~ft. These

The subject is located in a prime, developing area. The intended use of
the subject is cormmercial-recreational. This is a more intense use than an
industrial use. The area will be immersed in commercial-recreational uses with
the riverwalk, the museum, the amphitheater, the Heritage Trail extension, the
new hotel, and the existing Diamond Jo Casino Boat
It is the appraiser's opinion, that the subject has a value of $6.00 per
sq.ft, as a commercial-recreational property.

This appraisal assignment employed three approaches to value:
Cost Approach: NA.
Sales Comparison Approach: $1,093,000.
Income Approach: NA.
The appraiser is comfortable with the values represented in this
appraisal. The Sales Comparison Approach is the only approach given
consideration, as this is vacant land.

SCOPE OF TFfE, APPRAISAL
This is a complete appraisal in a summ~ey rg~port.
Barry Lindahl, attorney for the City of Dubuque, contacted Felderman Appraisals to appraise the
property identified in this report. Crompton & Knowles are identified as the owners the
property, which is located in Dubuque, Iowa.
The appraiser will determine an estimated opinion of market value, based on the buyers (City of
Dubuque) paying for condemnation estimated costs of $280,000. The property is to be
purchased or condemned in its entirety.
The property wilt be values as of the most recent date of inspection, 21 February 2001.
All three approaches to value are considered: Cost Approach to Value, Income Approach to
Value, and Sales Comparison Approach to Value. A final estimate will be reconciled fi.om these
approaches.
7
APPRAISAL PROCESS
The estimated opinion of market value based on a eorrelation ofvalues obtained from the three
approaches to value. These are the Cost Approach, Income Approach, and Sales Comparison
Approach to Value. See the glossary addendum for a detailed description of''Market Value" as
used in th~ appraisal.
COST APROACH
The cost approach is based upon the theory that a well-informed buyer will pay no more for a
property than the cost to replace it in a reasonable time (RCN), plus the cost of similar land.
Typically, the buyer will pay something less for existing property than its cost new, and this is
attributable to factors of age and changing standards of layout and construction. The cost new,
then is reduced by these factors in three categories of depreciation to arrive at a discounted
improvemem value. These categories of depreciation are physical, functional, and economic.
Physical depreciation is caused by the physical wear of the improvements and their age.
Functional obsolescence is due to either inadequacies or super-adequacies in building design.
Forces outside of the property cause economic obsolescence which decrease the utility of value
of the improvements.
Reproduction Cost New (RCN) is derived l~om Marshall & Swift or Boecke Valuation Guides as
well as local builders. The remaining economic life is the appraiser's estimate based on the
condition of the buildings. The rotes of depreciation are estimated from sales of improved
properties or from guidelines estimated by "visual observation," Land value is estimated based
on market research and general knowledge with the assumption that is can be put to its highest
and best use.

SALES COMPARISON APPROACH
This approach is based upon the Principal of Substitution that states that a prudent purchaser
would pay no more for real property than the cost of acquiring an equally desirable substitute on
the open market. It presumes the sale of similar or nearly similar properties from which units of
comparison may be extracted and applied to the property being appraised for an indication of
property value.
INCOME APPROACH
The Income Approach considers the stream of income that the property is likely to produce
during its economic life, and converts this income to a value estimate. (Net Income divided by
Rate equals Value). The Rate or Capitalization Rate is derived from the Market.
This Approach considers the current or potential income based on the property potential to earn a
future income stream. This value is based on the principle of anticipation, as the owner is
trading current assets for the right to a future income stream.

In October of 1997, the National Education Center for Agricultural Safety opened it doors on a
parcel of land adjoining the Northeast Iowa Community College (NICC) in Peosta. NICC has
indicated there will be expansions in the near futura. There are new housing subdivisions along
the north side of Peosta, and in 1999, a condominium and single-family development began
construction along the north side of Thunderhills Golf and Country Club.
The overall Tri-State Area market should continue to grow, subject to favorable interest rates,
and a continued stable to increasing economic market. The City of Dubuque continues to expand
along its major arterials both west and south, with several annexations taking place in recent
years.
The City of Dubuque Housing Department has identified a continued shortage of elderly
housing, and multi-family residential dwellings in general (with emphasis on low-income
properties). There have been rental surveys completed in Dubuque since 1997. The most recent
survey shows occupancy rates at 95+% for single family, 87% to 90% for duplexes, and 85% to
90% for multi-unit apartments.
Dubuque and Tri-State Area rent increases are stable to slightly increasing from 1997 to 1998,
and stable in 1999 through 2000. The occupancy rates appear to have increased based on
discussions with local brokers and landlords.
There have been two new apartment buildings (Applewood Senior Apartments, with a total of 92
units) constructed along Pennsylvania Avenue since 1994. Luther Manor, a nursing and
retirement complex, added a special residential care facility in 1996. A retirement housing area
has been constructed along Pennsylvania Avenue near Hempstead High School. Two low
inceme-housing complexes have been completed along Crescent Ridge since 1996, both with
over 42 units.

The Tri-State Area has also seen the renovation of many older downtown properties for low-
income housing. Area vacancies were typically lessthan2% vaeancy rate in the early 1990's;
but with the construction of several new single family and multiple family complexes, the area
has seen increases in apartment vacancy rates with recent stabilization as discussed above.
I
I
The downtown multiple family residential vacancy rates have increased to a range that appears to
have stabilized between 5% and 20% (less in some areas and for some types of property), with
the upper floor apartments having the higher rates.
I
I
I
I
Commercial property vacancies range from 0% to 15% for downtown property (higher end for
multi-level property), and 0% to 5% for most westside property. Industrial vacancies range from
0% to 10°/6 throughout the Tri-State. Residential vacancies tend to range between 0% and 15%
with lower rates for single family (typically below 5%) and higher for downtown property.
The overall Dubuque Area continues to see new residential, commercial, and industrial interest,
and there are plans for several new businesses and subdivisions throughout the city and county.

UTILITIES: Public utilities are available to the area, including: electricity, telephone, gas, city
water, and sewer.
DRAINAGE appears adequate, and flows towards property lines.
PARCEL SIZE .....
is small for industrial sites and typical for commercial sites in the area. The site
is irregular in shape.
VIEWS of nearby properties include industrial, floodwall, and property either transitioned or in
the pr°cess °ftrausition/ng to commercial and/or commercial recreation uses. The neighborhood
has been announced for commercial uses by the City of Dubuque.
EASEMENTS: There are no apparent known adverse_ easements, known encroachments, or
known special assessments. The property has typical utility easements and access easements.
MAINTENANCE & CONDITION: The commercial properties in this immediate area are in
overall good condition, and the industrial properties range fi:om poor condition to average
condition. Many of the properties in the area are over fit~y years old, but there continues to be
new commercial construction planned in the area. The entire Fourth Street Peninsula is planned
for a future transition to commercial recreation uses by the City of Dubuque.

PROPERTY COMPATIBILITY: The subject, as improved, is not compatible with the planned
commercial uses. However, with a commercial highest and best use the property is compatible
with immediate area uses.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL: Development is stable to increasing throughout Dubuque.
There are new improvements taking place all through Dubuque and areas immediately along its
outskirts. There are several areas surrounding the edge of the City of Dubuque that are
programmed for future annexation. Downtown development typically involves the demolition of
older buildings, such as the current improvements on the subject site.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF IMPROVEMENTS
The subject property includes an original brewery with pub and offices, and additions for
bottling and distribution. The total complex bbs approximately 60,017 square feet over five
levels. The main level has 32,101 square feet, the second level has 12,518 square feet, the third
level has 8,974 square feet, the fourth level has 5,824 square feet, and the penthouse level has
approximately 600 square feet. The information provided in this description is based on
previous inspections by the appraiser and not the most recent inspection.
BUILDING:
AGE: 1898, 1980, and 1981
FOUNDATION: The building bbs mix of stone and poured concrete foundations
EXTERIOR: The exterior walls are; common brick for the original buildings, metal for the
distribution section, and concrete block for the bottling section.
ROOF: All buildings have a flat roof (tar and gravel, membrane), with metal gutters except for
the gable metal roof for distribution section. There is evidence of leaks on the two-story office
and pub section. Other than the distribution section and the office root~ the other areas appear to
have had repairs or replacements.
INTERIOR: The interior materials vary fi:om section to section. The distribution section has
unfinished insulated wails, the bottling section has painted concrete block walls. The original
section varies fiom unfinished brick wails for several areas, to plaster in the offices and pub,
plywood in the penthouse. The floor coverings are mostly unfinished concrete with some carpet
and some wood floors in the offices and the pub.
39
Windows are storefront casements in the pub, double hung in the offices and upper levels of the
original building, and casement type in the bottling section. There are no windows in the
distribution section.
The building sketch indicates the different sections and levels. These include the original
brewery with pub and offices, brewing areas over several levels, and the maintenance and
storage areas; plus the distribution section (1980) and the bottling section (1981). The original
building has several large storage casks and vats that could be used by another brewery
operation, or removed if there is different type of user.
MECHANICALS: The appraiser was not able to locate and identify the main electrical panel
but noted several lighting panels throughout the entire property. According to past inspection
and interviews, there have been several upgrades to the propen'y, which were completed bythe
previous tenant. There is a larger boiler in the maintenance section that provides heat throughout
the building.
LOT PARKING: There is a gravel parking area, a gravel driveway, and a brick driveway.

LAND VALUE ESTIMATE
The appraiser has determined that the highest and best use for the property is for commercial
uses, with the value adjusted for the estimated costs to demolish the industrial improvements.
In order to estimate the value of the site as if vacant, it has been compared with competitive land
sales in the Tri-State Area.
Consideration must be given to lot size, location, traffic, zoning, date of sale, access, and
allowable use. Refer to the Land Sales Adjustment Chart.
The subject parcel measures approximately 76,971 square feet, and is zoned CR, Commercial
Recreation District.
LAND SALES COMPARABLES
All of the comparables were adjusted upward for date of sale. The area sales indicate an increase
ofapproxlmately 3% per year.
Not all of the comparables listed in the Land Sales Chart on the next page were used to
determine the subject's value but were researched as area land sales.
The value determined in this approach is based on vacant, commercial land. The final value is
adjusted downward by $280,000 for the buyer paying the estimated costs to demolish.

#9 and #14 are adjusted downward for smaller lot size (typically larger lots sell for less per

the most recent sale in the area. Sale #t4 has not closed but all contingencies have been
completed. Less weight is given to #13 since itwas a donation transfer. The other sales are
located on the westside of town or were smaller in size and not given consideration.
With some weight given to these adjusted comparables, it is the appraiser opinion that the subject
land value, as if vacant with a commercial use, has a current estimated value of $7.50 per square
foot.
76,971 times $ 7.50 equals $ 577,283
Estimate of Land Value (as if vacant)
$577,000 (rounded)
42
As discussed, the land as if vacant must be adjusted downward since the buyer (City of
Dubuque) will be paying for the estimated demolition costs.
The estimated demolition costs (provided by the City of Dubuque, from Tschiggfrie Excavating)
are $280,000. According to the City of Dubuque, the industrial improvements are located on the
Crompton & Knowles property, and add no contributory value to the site with a highest and best
use for commercial uses.
Therefore, with adjustments for the demolition costs, the following value would apply.
$ 577,000 tess $ 280,000 equals $297,000

COSTAPPROACH
The reproduction cost of building is the total cost of construction required to replace the subject
building with a substitute of like utility and quality. These costs typically include labor,
materials, supervision, contractors' profit and overhead, architect's plans and specifications, sales
tax and insurance. In this updated report, the value reflects a highest and best use for
commercial uses, and the appraiser determined that the improvements do not provide value to the
land, and in fact that they reflect a negative cost to the land for the cost to demolish the
improvemems. The Land Value Estimate discusses these costs, and adjusts the land value as if
the buyer will pay demolition costs. The City of Dubuque indicated that the improvements are
located on the Crompton & Knowles property, and the estimated demolition costs of $280,000
are deducted from the property land value, as if vacant, to get the current value.
LAND VALUE ESTIMATE
The updated land value for the subject was previously in this report. Giving weight and
consideration to all the lot data and all variables affecting value, it is the appraiser opinion that
the subject (with buyer paying for demolition) has an estimated value of $297,000.

~CON~APPROACH
The Income Approach considers the stream of income that the property is likely to produce
during its economic life, and converts this income to a value estimate.
Steps of the Income Approach include:
1. Estimate the Potential Gross Income (Economic Rent).
2. Add any additional sources of income (laundry, garage).
3. Subtract the typical vacancy losses.
4. The result is Effective Gross Income.
5, Subject estimated and/or actual expenses. Fixed such as taxes, ~ce, maintenance,
management, licenses, utilities (if included in the rent) and long term such as reserves
(future capital expenditures).
6. The result is the Net Operating Income.
7. Develop a capitalization rote (derived l~om the market or using the mortgage equity
rate). Divide the net income by the capitalization rate to determine the Income
Approach Value.
As vacant commercial land, the property may have income potential but there are no current
commercial land leases available. As improved, the current building has some potential for
storage purposes, but the maximum capacity of the building would not be realized except as a
brewery. This brewery use could not be realized without significant improvemems and
upgrades.
Typically, commercial land in the Dubuque Area is not used for its income producing ability.
Since the property, is not leased, and does not have the potential to be leased, this approach is not
considered relevant in valuing the subject.

SALES COMPARISON APPROACH
This approach is based upon the Principle of Substitution that states that a prudent purchaser
would pay no more for real property than the cost of acquiring an equally desirable substitute on
the open market. It presumes the sale of similar or nearly similar properties from which units of
comparison may be extracted and applied to the property being appraised for an indication of
property value.
The currem improvements do not contribute to a value that is higher than commercial land,
vacant and ready to build.
The Estimate of Land Value was determined using a Sales Comparison Approach for lot sales.
The land value in this report reflects the site being vacant and ready to use, which means the total
investment would include the land purchase and demolition of the current improvements.
For the purposes of this update report, the appraiser was tasked with determining a value that
reflects the buyer paying the estimated demolition costs of $280,000. Refer to the value
determined in the Estimate of Land Value for further discussion.
$ 577,000 less $ 280,000 equals $297,000
SALES COMPARISON APPROACH TO VALUE $297,000 (rounded)
46
!
I The immediate area has been in a continuous transition from past industrial uses to commercial
recreation uses. The client has specifically asked that the appraiser determine a value that
I reflects its highest and best use as commercially zoned, with the buyer paying demolition costs.
The traffic flow in the area (gambling riverboat and casino) combined with its riverfront
visibility indicates continued increases in traffic. The most recent figures indicate attendance
II over 1,000,000 tourists per year in the area. The most recent land sale for a commercial use (6+
acres being purchased by the U. S. Postal Service), supports the value determined in this report.
i Based on an analysis of the data contained in this report, the appraiser has determined a most
probable estimated opinion of current market value (based on the highest and best use as
commercial land with lrayer paying for demolition of $280,000), as of 21 February 2001;
$ 577,000 less $ 280,000 equals $297,000

APPRAISERS CERTIFICATIONS AND LIMITATIONS
ADDENDUM G
DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE: (from the USPAP 2001 EDITION - with last two
paragraphs added)
The most probable price which a property should b~ng in a competitive and open market
under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, and
knowledgeably and assnmlng the price is not affected by undue stimulus.
Implicit in this definition is the consnmmation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing
of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
(1) buyer and seller are typically motivated;
(2) both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what he considers his own best
interest:
(3) a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
(4) payment is made in terms ofcash in U.S. dollars of in terms of financial arrangements comparable
thereto; and
(5) the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or
creative financing or sales concessions* granted by anyone associated with the sale.
Substitution of another currency for United States dollars in the fourth condition is appropriate in
other countries or in reports addressed to clients from other countries.
Persons performing appraisal services that may be subject to litigation are cautioned to seek the exact
legal definition of market value in the jurisdiction in which services are being performed.
*Adjustments to the comparables must be made for special or creative financing or sales
concessions. No adjustments are necessary for those costs, which are normally paid by sellers as a
result of tradition or law in a market area; these costs are readily identifiable since the seller pays
these cost in virtually all sales transactions. Special or creative financing adjustments can be made to
the comparable property by comparisons to financing terms offered by a third party institutional
lender that is not already involved in the property transaction.
Any adjustment should not be calculated on a mechanical dollar for dollar cost of the financing
or concession but the dollar amount of any adjustment should approximate the market's reaction to
the financing or concessions based on the appraiser's judgment.
I
STATEMENT OF LIMITING CONI)ITIONS AND APPRAISER'S CERTIFICATION
CONTINGENT AND LIMITING CONDITIONS: The appraiser's certification that appears in the
appraisal report is subject to the following conditions:
1. The appraiser will not be responsible for matters of a legal nature that affect either the property
being appraised or the title to do it. The appraiser assumes that the title is good and marketable and,
therefore, will not render any opinions about the tale. The property is appraised on the basis of it
being under respons~le ownership.
2. The appraiser may have provided a sketch in the appraisal report to show approximate dimensions
of the improvements and the sketch is included only to assist the reader of the report in visualizing the
property and understanding the appraiser's determination of its size.
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
3. The appraiser has examined the available flood maps that are provided by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (or other data sources) and has noted in the appraisal report wbether the subject
site is located in an ident'rfied Special Flood Hazard Area. Because the appraiser is not a surveyor, he
or she makes no guarantees, express or implied, regarding this determination.
4. The appraiser will not give testimony or appear in court bemuse he or she made an appraisal ofthe
property in questions, unless specific arrangements to do so have been made beforehand.
5. The appraiser has estimated the value of the land in the cost approach at its highest and best use
and the improvements at their contributory value. These separate valuations of the land and
improvements must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if they are so
used.
6. The appraiser has noted in the appraisal report any adverse conditions (such as, needed repairs,
depreciation, the presence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) observed during the inspection
of the subject property or that he or she became aware of during the normal research involved in
performing the appraisal. Unless otherwise stated in the appraisal report, the appraiser has no
knowledge of any hidden or unapparent conditions of the property or adverse environmental
conditions Cmcluding the presence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) that would make the
property more or less valuable, and has assmed that there are no such conditions and makes no
guarantees or warranties, express or implied, regarding the condition of the property.
I
I
The appraiser will not be responsible for any such conditions that do exist or for any engineering or
testing that might be required to discover whether such conditions exist. Because the appraiser is not
an expert in the field of environmental hazards, the appraisal report must NOT be considered as
any type environmental assessment or property inspection of the property.
I
I
7. The appraiser obtained the information, estimates, and opinions that were expressed in the
appraisal report from sources that he or she considers to be reliable and believes them to be tree and
correct. The appraiser does not assume responsibility for the accuracy of such items that were
furnished by other parties.
8. The appraiser will not disclose the contents of the appraisal report except as provided for in the
Uniform Standards of Professionai Appraisal Prac~ce.
9. The appraiser may have based his or her appraisal report and valuation conclusion for an appraisal
that is subject to satisfactory completion, repairs, or alterations on the assumption of the
improvements will be performed in a workma~ike manner.
10. The appraiser must provide his or her prior written consent before the lender/cliant specified in
the appraisal report can distribute the appraisal report (including conclusions about the property
value, the appraiser's idenfifig and professional designations, and references to any professional
appraisal organizations of the firm with which the appraiser is associated) to anyone other than the
borrower, the mortgage of its successors and assigns; the mortgage insurer; consultants; professional
appraisal organizations; any state or federally approved financial institution; or any department
agency, or instrumentality of the United States or any state of the District Of Columb'm; except that
the lender/client may distribute the property description section of the report only to data collection
or reporting service (s) without having to obtain the appraisers prior written consent.
The appraiser's written consent and approval must also be obtained before the appraisal can be
conveyed by anyone to the public through advertising, public relations, news, sales, or other media.

APPRAISER'S CERTIFICATION: The appraiser ee~-ifies and agrees that:
I have researched the subject market area and have selected a minimm of three recent sales of
properties most similar and proximate to the subject property for consideration in the sales
comparison analysis and have made a dollar adjustment when appropriate to reflect the market
reaction to those items of significant variation~ Ifa si~nificant item in a comparable property is
superior to, or more favorable than, the subject property, I have made a NEGATIVE
adjustment is made to reduce the adjusted sales price of the comparable and, if a si~mificant
item in a comparable property is inferior to, or less favorable than the subject property, I have
made a POSITIVE adjustment is made to increase the adjusted sales price of the comparable.
I have taken into consideration the factors that have an impact on value in my development of
the estimate of market value in the appraisal report. I have not knowingly withheld any
significant information from the appraisal report and I believe, to the best of my knowledge,
that all statements and information in the appraisal report are tree and correct.
I stated in the appraisal report only my own personal, unbiased, and professional armlysis,
opinions, and conclusions, which are subject only to the contingent and limiting conditions
specified in this form~
I have no present or prospective interest in the property that is the subject to this report, and I
have no present or prospective personal interest or bias with respect to the participants in the
transactinr~ I did not base, either partially or completely, my analysis and/or the estimate of
market value in the appraisal report on the race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status,
or national origin of either the prospective owners or occupants of the subject property or of
the present owners or occupants of the properties in the vicinity of the subject property.
I have no present or contemplated future interest in the subject property, and neither my
current or future employment nor my compensation for performing this appraisal is contingent
on the appraised value of the property.
I was not required to report predetermined value or direction in value that favors the cause of
the client or any related party, the mount of value estimate, the attainment ora specific result,
or the occurrence of a subsequent event in order to receive my compensation and/or
employment for perform~ the appraisal. I did not base the appraisal report on a requested
minimum valuation, a specific valuation, or the need to approve a specific mortgage loan.
I performed this appraisal in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal
Practice that were adopted and promulgated by the Appraisal Standards Board of The
Appraisal Foundation and that were in place as of the effective date ofthis appraisal, with the
exception of the departure provision of those Standards, which does not apply (tmless
specifically stated so). I acknowledge that an estimate ora reasonable time for exposure in the
open market is a condition in the definition of market value and the estimate I developed is
consistent with the marketing time noted in the neighborhood section of this report, unless I
have otherwise state in the reconciliation section.
I have personally inspected the interior and exterior areas of the subject property, and the
exterior of all properties listed as comparables in the appraisal report (unless otherwise
indicated). I further certify that I have noted any apparent or known adverse conditions in the
subject improvements, on the subject site, or on any site within the immediate vicinity of the
subject property of which I am aware and have made adjustments for these conditions in my
analysis of the property value to the extent that I had market evidence to support them. I have
also commented about the effect of the adverse conditions on the marketability of the subject
property.
I personally prepared all conclusions and opinions about the real estate that were set forth in
the appraisal report. If I relied on significant professional assistance from any individual or
individuals in the performance of the appraisal of the preparation of the appraisal report, I have
named such individual(s) and disclosed the specific tasks performed by them in the
reconciliation section of this appraisal report. I certify that any individual so named is qualified
to perform the tasks. I have not authorized anyone to make a change to any item in the report;
therefore, if an unauthorized change is made to the appraisal report, I take no responsibility for
it.
