RE: Fourth Addition, Dauntless Subdivision, Ames, Iowa
Petition for waiver of right-of-way width of Dickinson Avenue
Dear Mayor Tedesco and Members of the City Council:
We represent Terra Firma, L.P., Everett W. Cochrane and Marjorie L. Cochrane,
Jensen Development Corporation, LTD., and Erben A. Hunziker as Trustee of the Erben
A. Hunziker Revocable Trust, the proprietors of the Outlots Q, R, S, U, V, and W of First
Addition, Dauntless Subdivision, Ames, Iowa. The proprietors have submitted to the city
for approval a proposed Fourth Addition, Dauntless Subdivision, Ames, Iowa.
The proprietors hereby request that the City Council make an exception to the
new street width requirement which would dictate a 66-foot right-of-way for Dickinson
Avenue and permit the new street to be platted with a 60-foot right-of-way. It should be
noted that approximately 200 feet of the street south from the intersection of Dickinson
Avenue and Steinbeck Street has already been platted with a 60-foot right-of-way.
I have been authorized to advise the City Council that the Planning and Housing
Department and the Public Works Department support this petition and join the this re-
quest approval.
Yours very truly,
S JAHN, FEiLw--YER&FEILR�'YER, PLC
