INTRODUCTION
A request has been received from Union-Hoermann Press, Inc. (Union-
Hoermann) for the vacating of a portion of Kerper Boulevard that abuts the
existing Union-Hoermann facility at 2175 Kerper Boulevard.
BACKGROUND
Union-Hoermann Press, Inc. will utilize the area for additional employee parking.
DISCUSSION
Because of space restrictions between the Union-Hoermann building and the
existing right-of-way, Union-Hoermann is requesting the vacate of approximately
4,064 square feet along Kerper Boulevard. The vacated area would be paved
and landscaped to accommodate additional parking spaces.
The City has no plans for the utilization of this portion of Kerper Boulevard to be
vacated, except for a utility easement 10 feet behind the proposed right-of-way
line as shown on the plat.
RECOMMENDATION
would recommend that a portion of Kerper Boulevard in Block 19 of River Front
Subdivision No. 3 in the City of Dubuque, Dubuque County, Iowa as shown 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 on June 4, 2007. I would further
recommend that the purchase price be established at $8,839.00, plus surveying,
platting, publication and filing fees.
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.

This letter is written to inquire about the possibility of p urchasing a
portion of a city street/alley abutting my property at 2175 Kerper Boulevard.
We plan to use the vacated property for parking expansion.
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 563.582.3631 if you have questions.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
Sincerely,
2175 KERPER BOULEVARD PO. BOX 916 DUBUQUE, IA 52004-0916 PHONE (563) 582-3631 FAX (563) 582-5937 wuno.uhpress.com
