Request to Vacate_Old Highway Road_National Guard Readiness CenterOctober 30, 2012 Honorable Mayor and City Council 50 West 13`h Street Dubuque, IA 52001 -4845 RE: Vacate City Property Dear Mayor and Council Members: Straka Johnson Architects, P.C. This letter is written to inquire about the possibility of the State of Iowa purchasing a portion of a city street abutting the property at the National Guard Readiness Center, 5001 Old Highway Road (1035 Radford Road). We plan to use the vacated property for an existing statue and plinth that is found to sit partially in the right -of -way, and a new security fence that complies with federal Anti - Terrorism Force Protection standards. Please see Exhibit A for more information. We have contacted the City Engineering Department and they have indicated a favorable condition for the vacating but may need easements reserved for utilities. We understand that the vacated area would need to be surveyed and platted at our expense and a fee paid for the parcel, plus publication and filing fees. Please call me at (563) 556 -8877 if you have questions. Thank you for your consideration of this request. For the property owner. Sincerely, i���6'�ol�vZtf> Richard L.
