TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
SUBJECT: Snow Removal Assessment for 1495 Glen Oak Street
DATE: March 9, 2015
City Engineer Gus Psihoyos recommends City Council approval of the Final
Assessment for one property at 1495 Glen Oak Street for the 2014-2015 Snow
Removal from City Right-of-Way Program in the amount of $145.
Though the winter season is ongoing, this property is the subject of an impending
Sheriff's sale and warrants early assessment to assure the City costs pertaining to snow
removal are recorded to be recouped prior to the sale.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolutions provide for the establishment of the final assessment for one
property at 1495 Glen Oak Street for the 2014 - 2015 Snow Removal from City Right-
Of-Way Program.
BACKGROUND
Though the winter season is ongoing, this property came to staff attention as being on
the Sheriff's sale list. Iowa State Code Section 364.12b states the abutting property
owner is responsible "for the removal of the natural accumulations of snow and ice from
the sidewalks within a reasonable amount of time and may be liable for damages
caused by the failure of the abutting property owner to use reasonable care in the
removal of the snow or ice." City Code of Ordinance 10-1-3-C-1 addresses the duties of
the abutting owner, removal by City, and the collection of costs.
This City received numerous phone calls regarding the snow covered walks at 1495
Glen Oak Street. The property ignored written notice of snow covered sidewalks
making it hazardous to public safety. Because of the impending Sherriff's sale, this
advance assessment will assure that the City costs to remove the snow from the walks
are recorded so they can be recouped prior to the sale.
DISCUSSION
The Final Schedule of Assessment for ice removal from 1495 Glen Oak Street is
$145.00 ($95.00 plus $50.00 for administrative fees.)
BUDGET IMPACT
The Sidewalk Inspection Program —Assessable Capital Improvement Project (CIP
1001108) is a general fund — liens account that will reimburse this assessment amount
of $145.00. The General Special Assessment Fund (CIP 25510255) covers the cost of
contracting and the revenue from those assessments.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend City Council approve the resolutions establishing this Final Assessment
Schedule for the Snow Removal from City Right-Of-Way for 1405 Glen Oak Street in
the amount of $145.00.
The City Council is requested to approve the attached resolutions establishing the Final
Assessment Schedule for Snow Removal from City Right-of-Way for this property.
