DATE: April 27, 2021
Planning Services Manager Wally Wernimont is transmitting information about the City
of Sageville annexation history and recommends that the City Council direct the City
Manager to forward this information onto the City Development Review Board with the
intention to inform new Board members of past Sageville annexation requests and
current site conditions. It is further recommended, regarding the most recent

RE: Recommendation in Response to City of Sageville Annexation
Proposal
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memo is to provide information about the City of Sageville
Annexation History. This is prompted by the recent letter from the City of Sageville
stating their intent to annex property into the corporate limits of the City of Sageville.
BACKGROUND
The City of Dubuque received a letter from the Sageville City Clerk/Treasurer noting the
City of Sageville has received two applications for annexing property into the corporate
limits of Sageville.
The first application involves the City of Sageville voluntarily annexing land owned by
the City of Sageville. The following properties are all located in Section 34, Township
90 North, Range 2 East of the 5t" P.M. according to the recorded plats thereof:
Lot 16 in Sageville Farm
9.00 Acres
Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 6 33.32 Acres
Lot 1 of Lot 2 of Lot 1 A 0.50 Acres
Total Acres 42.82 Acres
All of the before mentioned properties were acquired in a multi -parcel purchase from
Moonlit Beaches Investments, LLC to the City of Sageville on October 15, 2014. These
lots consist of cropland, floodplain and steep forested bluffs. The Little Maquoketa
River and Bloody Run Creek flow through the lots. Because of this, approximately 37
acres of the 42.82 acres are located in the 100-year regulatory floodplain of which 19
acres are designated Floodway (see attached Location Map). The five acres located
outside of the flood plain are mainly part of a bluff with an approximate 174' grade
change at an approximate 45% slope percentage.
The second application involves a voluntary annexation from Richard Strohmeyer for
the property located at 11506 Leiser Lane and is composed of the following lots located
in Section 34, Township 90 North, Range 2 East of the 5t" P.M. according to the
recorded plats thereof:
Lot 2 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 6 0.24 Acres
Lot 2 of Lot 1 of Lot 1 of Lot 6
0.70 Acres
Total Acres 0.94 Acres
This property involves an approximate 47' wide x 321' long strip of land surrounded by
the City of Sageville corporate limits on the east, north and west sides. The lot appears
to bisect the single-family home (11506 Leiser Lane) placing a portion of the house in
the corporate limits of Sageville and the other portion in Dubuque County.
If the City of Sageville were to annex the property owned by Sageville, the property
owned by Mr. Strohmeyer would create an island of county surrounded by the city. This
is not permissible by Iowa Code. Therefore, Mr. Strohmeyer is requesting voluntary
annexation to the City of Sageville to avoid creation of an island.
Iowa Code Chapter 368 City Development is the regulating statue when it comes to
annexation requests. The proposed annexation requests are considered 100%
Voluntary Annexations in an Urbanized Area. Chapter 368 defines urbanized area as:
"Urbanized area" means any area of land within two miles of the boundaries of a city.
Because the proposed annexation area is located within two miles of the City of
Dubuque (see Dubuque 2-Mile Buffer Map), the City of Sageville is required by state
law to notify the City of Dubuque (and others) of its intentions to annex property. In
addition, the City Development Board will hold a public hearing on the proposed
annexation request. I have attached a handout entitled, "100% VOLUNTARY
ANNEXATION IN AN URBANIZED AREA" which lays outs out the annexation process.
The City Development Board (CDB) is composed of five members appointed by the
governor subject to confirmation by the senate. The CDB acts on petitions for
annexations. After the CDB holds a public hearing, the CDB will determine whether to
approve or deny the annexation by stating their findings in writing.
DISCUSSION
The City of Sageville has in the past requested several times to annex property into
their corporate limits. The following is a list of these annexation requests along with
supporting documentation which are attached this memo.
City of Sageville Annexation No. ARC-1 (see attachment A)
This involved a voluntary annexation request from a property owner located in an
urbanized area. The total requested amount of area to annexed was 18 acres and was
located south of Kennedy Road and adjacent western edge of the Sageville City Limits.
2
On July 16, 1979, the Dubuque City Council received and filed a communication from
the City Development Board Administrator submitting a certification dismissing the
voluntary annexation petition submitted by the City of Sageville.
City of Sageville Annexation No.08-80 (see attachment B)
This involved a voluntary annexation request from a property owner located in an
urbanized area. The total requested amount of area to annexed was 1.504 acres and
was located immediately south of 10537 Rt 3 on the southern edge of the Sageville City
Limits. On November 3, 1980, the Dubuque City Council received and filed a
communication from the City Development Board advising of dismissal of the voluntary
annexation petition submitted by the City of Sageville.
City of Sageville Annexation No. UA03-33 (see attachment C)
This involved a voluntary annexation request from five property owners located in an
urbanized area. The total requested amount of area to annexed was 46.1 acres located
north of Collision Drive and Kennedy Road. On August 8, 2003, the Board found that
the City of Sageville was not providing an urban level of municipal services to the
current citizens and had no plans to provide them to the annexation territory. The City
Development Board denied the voluntary annexation finding that the annexation was
not in the public interest.
City of Sageville Annexation No. UA05-28 (see attachment D)
This involved a voluntary annexation request from three property owners located in an
urbanized area. The total requested amount of area to annexed was 18.46 acres and
was located north of Collision Drive and Kennedy Road. On August 26, 2005, the City
Development Board denied the voluntary annexation finding that the annexation was
not in the public interest.
The City of Dubuque has objected to the previous Sageville annexation requests for the
following reasons:
The annexation(s) were not in the public interest because Sageville provides no
municipal services and has no intention or reasonable expectation of providing
municipal services to the applicants.
■ Sageville levies no property taxes.
■ Has only one employee (a part time clerk/treasurer)
■ Has no sanitary sewer system or plans or means to provide for a sanitary
sewer system.
■ Has no storm water sewer system or plans or means to provide for a
storm water system.
■ Has no water system or plans or means to provide for a municipal water
system (all properties are on wells)
■ Has no independent law enforcement (Sageville contracts with the
Dubuque County Sheriff pursuant to a 28E agreement).
■ Does not have its own volunteer fire department.
3
■ Has no public road improvement or maintenance program (and what
public road services it provides are pursuant to a 28E Agreement with
Dubuque County).
■ Has no comprehensive plan for its future growth or development.
■ Has no professional planning staff, public works staff, library, zoning code
or building code enforcement, public recreation program, street lighting,
building inspections or zoning.
■ Has no capital improvement program to provide municipal services to its
citizens.
The previous annexation(s) were not in the public interest because it is not the result
of any planned growth within Sageville.
■ The City of Sageville does not have a comprehensive plan.
■ Sageville has a declining population.

The previous annexation(s) were also not in the public interest because its true
purposes are preemptive to avoid urbanization, to maintain the rural status quo and
to preserve minimal taxes for the applicants.
The previous annexation(s) were also not in the public interest because it is within
Dubuque's fringe area and its urbanized growth and development would be served
by Dubuque.
Annexation Area Development Potential
The proposed annexation area owned by Sageville would be difficult to develop. Over
87% of the area is floodplain of which 52% is a regulatory floodway. The Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), defines a regulatory floodway as:
"Regulatory Floodway" means the channel of a river or other watercourse and
the adjacent land areas that must be reserved in order to discharge the base
flood without cumulatively increasing the water surface elevation more than a
designated height.
What is the difference between a floodplain and a floodway? A floodplain is
comprised of the floodway and the floodway fringe. The floodway includes the
channel and adjacent overbank areas necessary to effectively convey floodwaters.
The floodway must remain open in order to allow flood waters to pass.
Development is typically not allowed in the floodway. FEMA defines development as:
CI
"Development" means any man-made change to improved or unimproved real
estate, including but not limited to buildings or other structures, mining, dredging,
filling, grading, paving, excavation or drilling operations or storage of equipment
or materials.
This area has had a significant history of flooding and with the frequency and intensity
of storm events any development in the area is not encourage. I have attached a July
2011 aerial photo of the proposed annexation area. This photo captures the impact of
flooding the day after a significant storm event.
Of the remaining 13% of land area that is not flood plain/floodway,11 % is a steep (45%
slope percentage) forested bluff. Development of this area would be difficult due to
topography.
As stated previously, if the land owned by Sageville is annexed, Mr. Strohmeyer's
property would become an island of county surrounded by the city which is not
permissible by Iowa Code. This property would need to be annexed as well.
I contacted the City Development Board Staff via email and followed up with a phone
call to verify the following question:
When municipalities request annexation of land owned by the municipality in an
urbanized area, are these typically approved?
CDB Staff responded, "If it is 100% Voluntary Annexation request, yes, these are
typically approved by the City Development Board."
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council direct the City Manager to forward this information
onto the City Development Review Board with the intention to inform new Board
members of past Sageville annexation requests and current site conditions. I also
recommend that due to the lack of development potential of the site and the fact that the
City of Sageville owns 98% of the property, the City of Dubuque take a neutral position
(neither for nor against) the proposed annexation.
Thank you.

RE: Sageville Petition for Annexation Within the Urbanized Area of
Dubuque
Dear Mayor Tully and Council Members:
The City Development Board, State of Iowa, has received a petition for

TO: Cities of Sageville and Dubuque, Dubuque County Board of Supervisors, Dubuque
County Attorney, East Central Intergovernmental Association, Iowa Attorney General,
Iowa Department of Transportation and affected public utilities.
STATEMENT OF THE CASE
The City of Sageville filed its request for City Development Board approval of annexation
of territory within the urbanized area of Dubuque on May.19, 2003. Notice of City Development
Board review of the request and owner's application was given on June 13, 2003, and the Board
considered the matter at its July 10, 2003, meeting. The City Development Board, having
considered the City's request for approval, the property owner's application, and all evidence
submitted by the affected parties hereby makes the following findings of fact, conclusions of law
and determination:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. On February 4, 2003, by written application, which included a map, Thomas Brimeyer
and Lisa Brimeyer; Thomas Brimeyer and Willard Brimeyer; Willard Brimeyer; H&M
Realty, L.C. by Harry J. Althaus; and Terry Dean requested the City of Sageville to annex
the following described property owned by them and located in Dubuque County, Iowa:
The proposed annexation territory is described in Appendix A
attached hereto and by this reference made a part of.

Prepared by: Steven R. McCann, Administrator 515/242-4719
Iowa Economic Development 1 City Development Board
200 E Grand Avenue 1 Des Moines, Iowa 50309
2. On April 20, 2003, the City of Sageville published in an official county newspaper notice
of the City Council's meeting on May 6, 2003, to consider the application for voluntary
annexation.
3'. On April 15, 2003, the City of Sageville provided a copy of the application for voluntary
annexation to the City of Dubuque, Dubuque County Board of Supervisors, East Central
Intergovernmental Association, Iowa Department of Transportation, and affected public
utilities.
4. By resolution dated May 6, 2003, which contained a legal description, the City Council of
Sageville voted to annex the subject property.
5. The area to be annexed is within two miles of the City of Dubuque and is therefore within
its urbanized area.
6. The area to be annexed has a common boundary with the City of Sageville of more than
50 feet.
7. The area to be annexed does not contain railroad right-of-way.
8. On May 19, 2003, the City requested the City Development Board to approve the
annexation of the territory described in finding number one. Said request included a
copy of the owner's application, map and City Council resolution.
9. On June 13, 2003, the City Development Board notified, by mail, the Cities of Sageville
and Dubuque, Dubuque County Board of Supervisors, Dubuque County Attorney, East
Central Intergovernmental Association, Iowa State Attorney General, Iowa Department of
Transportation and affected public utilities of the proposed annexation and request for
approval. Said notice invited oral and written evidence relative to the proposed
annexation.
10. The Board considered the request at its July 10, 2003, meeting and found it to be
complete and properly filed.
11. In requesting approval of the annexation, the City of Sageville noted that each owner of
property in the territory had requested voluntary annexation and the addition of territory to
the city would widen a narrow corridor of incorporated land connecting two larger
sections of the city. The City notes that it does not provide sewer, water, or snow
removal to its residents and would not provide these services to the territory if it is
annexed.
UA03-33 Sagoville Findings of Fact
Prepared by: Steven R. McCann, Administrator 5151242-4719
Iowa Economic Development 1 City Development Board
200 E Grand Avenue 1 Des Moines, Iowa 50309
Harry Althaus, an owner of property in the territory, stated that he intended to build a
house on the land for which he requested annexation. He said he wanted his land to be
annexed to Sageville to avoid the possiblity of future annexation to the City of Dubuque
and the increased cost for services.
Willard Brimeyer told the Board that he owns some property that is currently within the
city of Sageville and requested annexation of land in this proposal so that all of his land
would be in the City of Sageville.
The City of Dubuque filed a letter with the Board dated July 3, 2003, objecting to the
annexation. A representative of the City attended the board meeting and explained the
City's objection. Included in the points raised by the City of Dubuque were:
Sageville
• does not levy any property taxes.
• only has one city employee (a city clerk).
• Does not provide municipal services.
• Has no major capital improvement program beyond street maintenance.
• Has not adopted any plans for growth and development.
12. Based on the information in the annexation request, and input received at the board
meeting, the Board finds the proposed annexation not to be in the public interest. The
Board found that the City was not providing an urban level of municipal services to the
current citizens, and had no plans to provide them to the annexation territory. The Board
found that the annexation of additional land under these circumstances was' not in the
public interest.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
1. The territory to be annexed "adjoins" the City of Sageville as the term is defined in
Section 368.1(1) Iowa Code and is within the "urbanized area" of the City of Dubuque as
the term is defined in Section 368.1(15) Iowa Code.
2. The City published notice of the filing of the petition and provided copies of the proposed
annexation to parties in accordance with the requirements of Section 368.7 Iowa Code.
3. The City Development Board has jurisdiction to approve or decline the application for
annexation pursuant to Section 368.7(3) Iowa Code.

Iowa Economic Development / City Development Board
200 E Grand Avenue f Des Moines, Iowa 50309
4. The resolution by the City Council of Sageville conforms with Section 368.7 Iowa Code.
5. The City of Sageville's request for Board approval and the annexation is in substantial
compliance with procedural requirements of 263 Iowa Admin Code 7.2. The Board
acknowledges that the annexation request is subject to the provisions of Section 368.6
Iowa Code, which states:
"it is the intent of the general assembly to provide an annexation approval
procedure, which gives due consideration to the wishes of the residents of
territory to be annexed, and to the interests of the residents of all
territories affected by an annexation. The general assembly presumes
that a voluntary annexation of territory more closely reflects the wishes of
the residents of territory to be annexed, and, therefore, intends that the
annexation approval procedure include a presumption of validity for
voluntary annexation approval."
The Board gave due consideration to the reasons that the residents of the territory
desired annexation to Sageville. However, the Board believes that before an annexation
can be approved the annexing city must, at a minimum, show that it is prepared to offer
more than a rural level of services to its citizens. In this case, the level of service
proposed by Sageville does not warrant bringing more land into the city.
6. In accord with the standards set forth in Chapter 368 Iowa Code the annexation proposal
is not in the public's interest.
Dated this.8th day of August 2003.
