Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Alexis M. Steger, Housing and Community Development Director SUBJECT: Sale of City-owned property at 1100 Roosevelt Street DATE: April 24, 2019 Introduction The purpose of this memorandum is to request approval of the attached purchase agreement and special warranty deed for the sale of City-owned real property located at 1100 Roosevelt Street. Background The City took legal action by petitioning the courts for ownership. The City received ownership of property after petition to the courts on February 13, 2019. Discussion Dubuque and Jackson County Habitat for Humanity (Habitat) approached the City to see if there were any properties that would be suitable for a family in need of assistance. This property was identified to have great potential to rehabilitate, but the City would not have the resources to complete the rehabilitation for another two years. Habitat will be able to rehabilitate the property and sell it to an income-qualifying household under 80% median income. This will help keep ownership in the neighborhood and increase the tax base. This also meets the Voluntary Compliance Agreement (VCA) objectives of increasing homeownership opportunities for low-moderate income households throughout the City of Dubuque. The 21-year restrictive covenant has been placed on this property with the following provisions: The real estate will be restricted for owner-occupied single-family residential use. Rental of the real estate is not allowed. No portion of the real estate can be rented as an apartment. On April 15, 2019, the City Council, passed Resolution No. 140-19 declaring its intent to dispose of City-owned property at 1100 Roosevelt Street. Recommendation I respecffully request the City Council passes, approves and adopts the attached Resolution and Special Warranty Deed for the sale of 1100 Roosevelt Street. KLN/Attach.
