RESOLUTION ACCEPTING ADDITIONAL EASEMENTS AND AMENDMENTS TO
AGREEMENT FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS FOR AMENDMENT TO 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, this purchase means that the sewer line, which extends from the north
across the neighboring lot to the north, can now be routed out to University Boulevard/530th
Avenue. The sewer will parallel University Boulevard and cross the front of Parcel B, which
was previously not possible; and,
WHEREAS, the goal of this final plat is to move the sewer easement, which was
created by the ISU Research Park Phase IV, First Addition final plat. No other boundary
changes are proposed. Additional public utility easements are proposed along University
Boulevard for the placement of the sewer; and,
WHEREAS, No other alterations or changes, including property lines, are proposed.
These changes are deemed to be in compliance with the requirements found in the Chapter
23, Subdivisions.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames,
Iowa, that the acceptance of the additional easements and amendments to Agreement for
Public Improvements for ISU Research Park Phase IV, First Addition is hereby approved.
ADOPTED THIS 14th day of July, 2026.
