RESOLUTION APPROVING WAIVER OF NOTICE REQUIREMENT
TO OCCUPANTS IN THE AREAS OF THE CITY THAT ARE TO BE
INCLUDED WITHIN URBAN REVITALIZATION AREAS
FOR THE CITY OF AMES,IOWA
WHEREAS, staff is in the process of making changes to the Urban Revitalization Plans as
a result of a recent evaluation of the program; and,
WHEREAS,the Code of Iowa requires that mailed notice be given to all owners and tenants
of property that is included in the proposed Urban Revitalization area; and,
WHEREAS, Section 404.2 of the Code of Iowa further provides for a waiver of the notice
requirement to tenants if there is a lack of a reasonably current address list, there is a lack of a
reasonably complete address list, or for other good cause; and,
WHEREAS,the records of the City are not complete nor are the records current with respect
to the tenant population in the Urban Revitalization Areas; and,
WHEREAS, with the high degree of mobility of tenants and the large amount of tenant
population that reside in the Urban Revitalization Areas affected by these changes to the program,
providing notice to tenants would not occur with a high degree of effectiveness.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames, Iowa,
that the waiver of the requirement to notify tenants in the Urban Revitalization Areas is hereby
approved.
