TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
SUBJECT: Utility Easement for Industrial Spec Building
DATE: November 6, 2009
Economic Development Director Dave Heiar recommends City Council approval of an
easement that would allow Alliant to extend electrical lines and install a transformer to
provide electrical service to the Spec Building in the Dubuque Industrial Center West
owned by Spiegel Family Realty. Because the City still has an interest in the land, the
City needs to approve any easement.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

SUBJECT: Utility Easement for Industrial Spec Building
DATE: November 12, 2009
BACKGROUND
In September, 2008 the City Council authorized the sale of land on contract to Spiegel Family
Realty to allow for the construction of a 200,000 sq ft Industrial Spec Building in the DICW.
Since that time an industrial concrete building has been constructed on the site.
DISCUSSION
The developer is now ready to bring electrical power to the building, and Alliant has requested a
10 foot wide utility easement around the building. A transformer would be located on the rear
(south side) of the building. Generally, the City sells the property to the developer and the new
owner would have authority to approve utility easements. In this case, the City partnered with
the developer to provide an available shell building to our inventory of industrial assets.
Because the City still has an interest in the land, the City and the developer both need to
approve any easement.
RECOMMENDATION
To have the City Council approve the attached resolution to authorize the Mayor to sign the
easement which would allow Alliant to extend electrical lines and install a transformer to provide
electrical service to the Spec Building in the DICW.
