DATE: 09/13/88
COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT:
Resolution Granting Preliminary Approval to the Request to Purchase City
Property by Ames Trenching and Story Construction.
BACKGROUND:
The owners of Ames Trenching and Excavating, plus Story Construction
Company, have requested that the City sell approximately 3.2 acres from
the City of Ames. (A copy of a location map plus a property map is
attached for your review.)
The property in question is located north of Lincoln Way on the east side
of property currently owned by Story Construction, and immediately north
of the Midwest Transportation property and Ames Trenching property.
Both parties asking to purchase the City property would like to have
additional area for equipment and material storage.
The property in question is zoned G-I Floodplain and would be provided
access to Lincoln Way by the respective properties currently owned by
Ames Trenching and Story Construction.
Prior to acting on the final conditions of the sale, an appraisal must be
prepared, a property description must be developed, the purchasers must
agree to constructing a fence along the east and north property line of the
subject parcel along with Quit Claim Deeds and other documents for these
transactions.
At this point, the City Council is being asked to approve the concept of
selling the property in question.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council can grant preliminary approval to the request to sell
property to Ames Trenching and Story Construction with the following
stipulations:
A. A property appraisal must be completed;
B. A property description must be created;
: 2
C. An Agreement must be developed to construct the perimeter
fence; and
D. After approval, a proposed contract for a negotiated price plus
costs of appraisal will be prepared and submitted to the Council
with a resolution to propose the transaction or sale terms and
set the date of hearing.
2. The City Council can deny approval of the request to sell property to
Ames Trenching and Story Construction.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council adopt
Alternative #1. This will grant preliminary approval to the request to sell
property to Ames Trenching and Story Construction. This will also enable
the background work such as appraisals and deed preparation to
commence.

Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
Ames Trenching & Excavating, Inc. and Story Construction Co. are
interested in purchasing the parcel of land shown in yellow on the
attached sheet which is approximately 340' x 412.5' (3.22 acres)
from the City of Ames. A portion of this property is currently
leased by Ames Trenching & Excavating, Inc. from the City. The
property was acquired by the City from Ozzie Freel. It is not a
part of the landfill. We intend to use the property for equipment
and material storage. This would enable each of us to develop the
adjoining properties we presently own. If you are interested in
selling this property we would be willing to compensate the City a
reasonable price and would have the property surveyed and platted
at our expense.
Thank you for your consideration. We await your decision.
Sincerely,
AMES TRENCHING & EXCAVATING, INC.
