RESOLUTION APPROVING ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY AT
503 EAST LINCOLN WAY
FOR RESOURCE RECOVERY RECYCLABLES BUILDING AND STAGING AREA
FOR THE CITY OF AMES
WHEREAS,activities at the City's Resource RecoveryPlant(RRP)have demonstrated the need
for more usable space,especially for an area to stage and park semi-trailers that are used for the transfer

area in order to enhance the movement of semi-trailers; and,

the three properties directly across Borne Avenue east of the RRP,with these properties being located
at 503 East Lincoln Way, 116 Borne Avenue, and 122 Borne Avenue; and,
WHEREAS, staff has now negotiated an agreeable price with the owner of 503 East Lincoln
Way for$160,000; and,

Fund balance.
