RESOLUTION SETTING DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING FOR VACATION OF WALL
EASEMENT AT 400 MAIN STREET
FOR THE CITY OF AMES,IOWA
WHEREAS, in cooperation with the Public Art Commission (PAC) and other private parties,
in 2002 the City Council approved creation of a historical mural to be painted on the east wall of the
building at 400 Main Street adjacent to Tom Evans Plaza; and,
WHEREAS, in order to place this publicly owned mural on a privately owned building, the
property owner and the City entered into a 15-year easement agreement which extends to 2017; and,
WHEREAS,unfortunately,the building wall itself has deteriorated and needs maj or maintenance
that will involve destruction of the mural, and since the wall deterioration is already damaging the
mural, it seems timely to vacate this easement agreement and allow the owners to make the necessary
repairs to the building; and,
WHEREAS, a public hearing must be held before this easement can be vacated, and it is
proposed that the hearing be held at the regularly scheduled Council meeting of April 28, 2015.
NOW, THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames,Iowa,that
the public hearing for the vacation of the wall easement on the building located at 400 Main Street is
hereby set for April 28, 2015.
