DATE: 11-26-19
COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: VACATION OF A WATER MAIN EASEMENT ALONG COLLABORATION
PLACE (PLAZA LOOP TO SOUTH RIVERSIDE DRIVE)
BACKGROUND:
In 2015, as part of the Iowa State University Research Park (ISU RP) Phase III 3rd Addition
Improvements Project, water main was installed along the north edge of the future
Collaboration Place corridor from University Boulevard to South Riverside Drive. The portion
from Plaza Loop to South Riverside Drive was not yet platted as dedicated right-of-way
(ROW) at that time, so a 20-foot-wide easement was established.
At the November 12, 2019 City Council meeting, the final plat for the ISU RP Phase III 4th
Addition was approved including 80-foot-wide ROW for Collaboration Place from Plaza Loop
to South Riverside Drive. Therefore, the existing water main easement is now within
dedicated City ROW and can be vacated.
Attachment A is a map showing the location of the water main easement proposed to be
vacated and the new Collaboration Place ROW.
ALTERNATIVES:
1 . Set the date of public hearing as December 10, 2019 to approve vacation of the
aforementioned easement.
2. Reconsider the vacation of the aforementioned easement.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
This water main easement can be vacated because the water main is now within dedicated
City ROW. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City
Council adopt Alternative No. 1 as noted above.
