RESOLUTION APPROVING WAIVER OF REQUIREMENT FOR A PRELIMINARY
PLAT FOR ISU RESEARCH PARK PHASE IV, FIRST ADDITION
FOR THE CITY OF AMES, IOWA
WHEREAS, on February 10, 2026, the City Council approved the Preliminary Plat
for the Iowa State University Research Park Phase IV, First Addition. Subsequently, on
April 14, 2026, the City Council approved the final plat for the same subdivision. The plat
created one large lot (15.06 acres) and one large outlot (20.35 acres) and also dedicated
right-of-way (1.46 acres) out of a large parcel (36.87 acres). The property occupies most
of a quarter-quarter section; a 3.17-acre parcel (Parcel B); and,
WHEREAS, following the sale of Parcel B, the applicant has requested a major
amendment to the Final Plat to modify the location of a sanitary sewer extension and
allow for future annexation of Parcel B; and,
WHEREAS, since no lot lines are proposed to move and only a relocation of the
sewer to the right of-way must occur, the applicant has requested a waiver to the
requirement to have a Preliminary Plat for a Major Amendment due to the nature of the
change; and,
WHEREAS, staff in the Public Works Department as well as Planning staff has
reviewed the proposed change and is supportive.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames,
Iowa, that the waiver of requirement for a preliminary plat for ISU Research Park Phase
IV, First Addition is hereby approved.
ADOPTED THIS 14th day of July, 2026.
