FROM:
Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
Gus Psihoyos, City Engineer V
TO:
SUBJECT: Vacating Petition - Alley between Washington Street and Elm
Streetfrom 17th to 18th Streets
INTRODUCTION
A request has been received from John Gronen, representing Pine Box, LLC, for
the vacating of an alley between Washington Street and Elm Street from 17th to
18th Streets.
DISCUSSION
The attached plat shows the alley between Washington Street and Elm Street
from 17th to 18th Streets proposed to be vacated. The abutting properties are
owned by Pine Box, LLC and the City of Dubuque.
The area to be vacated is divided into two lots numbered Lot 159A and 159B of
"East Dubuque" an Addition in the City of Dubuque, Iowa. The area is ap
existing 20-foot wide alley between Washington Street and Elm Street from 17ftl
to 18th Streets on which public utilities exist. Perpetual easement rights will be
reserved over the entire vacated area for maintenance of the existing sanitary
sewer, watermain, and other utilities. The City has coordinated the relocation of
cable television and telephone with company representatives.
The property has been valued as part of an exchange of properties with Pine
Box, LLC to create parcels of equal size.
RECOMMENDATION
The City plans to utilize the easterly 15 feet of the north half of the alley for a
proposed City parking lot. The remainder of the alley will be incorporated into
improvements being made by Pine Box, LLC.
I would recommend that the areas indicated by Lot 159A and 159B of "East
Dubuque" an Addition in the City of Dubuque, Iowa, on the attached plat be
vacated, and that a public hearing be set for the disposition of the City's interest
in the subject area of said Lot 159B on November 6, 2006. I would further
recommend that the purchase price be established as part of an exchange of
properties with Pine Box, LLC. As requested by Pine Box, LLC, Lot 159B will be
deeded to Washington Court, LP.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The recommendation of the City Manager should be approved and a public
hearing should be set on the disposal of the property through the adoption of the
enclosed resolution.
