Director Trelka is requesting authorization to have two (2) Racine Wisconsin Police officers travel to Waterloo to
address the City Council and WPD officers on their Community Oriented Policing Program. Racine implemented
this program 23 years ago and it involves acquiring or using property in the most problem -plagued neighborhoods
in the city. Select officers are imbedded as "Community Police Officers" and work out of this property. The
property becomes a combined police station, gathering center, and outreach location for services (police, code
enforcement, probation and parole) that are needed to address the problems in the neighborhood. One goal of
the assigned officer is to become an "expert" on the neighborhood they are assigned, by walking a beat, talking to
residents, addressing the concerns of those in the neighborhood and being proactive to the issues facing the
particular neighborhood. This program has been very successful in Racine's most challenging neighborhoods and
they have observed the following from 1991-1998 after implementing the program: Violent Crime fell 53%,
Property crime fell 48% and calls for service fell 15%.

"Experience & Integrity You Can Trust!"
City of Waterloo, Iowa
Attn.: Ernest G. "Buck" Clark, Honorable Mayor
City Hall, 715 Mulberry Street
Waterloo, Iowa 50703
RE: Status of Sunnyside South Addition &
Impact of Finding by Supreme Court of Iowa
Ernest G. "Buck" Clark, Honorable Mayor:
Isaiah 40:31
We were requested to review the Finding by the Supreme Court of Iowa, and the Legal
Descriptions and files involving the Sunnyside South Addition.
The First Item, of note, that the process followed in this Development, has not followed the same
order of work, or amount of work, as required of other Developments in the City of Waterloo,
Iowa.
The Second Item: I have not found where the referenced Public Right of Way for this
Development had been vacated prior to any Transfer of Title.
The Third Item: The Proposed Resolution, Directing the Process for the Sale of Certain Tracts of
Land, Formerly Portions of San Marnan Drive. The Legal Descriptions included in this
Resolution, covering Tract 1, That part of Parcel "G" within the SW 1/4, Section 5, T88N,
R13W; Tract 2, That part of Parcel "G" within the SE 1/4, Section 5, T88N, R13W; Tract 3, That
part of Parcel "G" within the NW 1/4, Section 8, T88N, R13W; and Tract 4, That part of Parcel
"G" within the NE 1/4, Section 8, T88N, R13W; all make reference to the Plat of Survey,
recorded as Document No. 2013-00020461, which is standard practice. The Problem arises from
reference to recorded Plat of Sunnyside South Addition, as recorded in Document No. 2014-
00003182, which technically can not exist until the Public Right of Way has been vacated and
transferred.

15A30 -LTR -01 E-mail: kirk@kess-survey.com Sheet No. 1 of 2
The Fourth Item: The reference to Public Road, relocated San Marnan Drive, again tied to the
Plat of Sunnyside South Addition, as recorded in Document No. 2014-00003182, which
technically does not exist at this time. The reference is also made as if this is an Easement. The
Iowa State Highway Commission, now the Iowa Department of Transportation, originally
purchased the Right of Way for Iowa Highway 412, now San Marnan Drive, (in the year "1959")
as an Easement, since this area was in the Rural Area of Black Hawk County, and not part of the
City of Waterloo Corporate Limits. The Same Right of Way was then transferred in "1983" to the
City of Waterloo, Iowa, for Jurisdictional Maintenance & Control. The Court issue arose from
the method used in the Transfer from the City of Waterloo, to the Sunnyside South Addition
Developers. The Quit Claim Deed of the Right of Way is acceptable, and does cover the Right of
Way as an Easement. The reference to Tract "A" as an Easement appears to be incorrect since
The Deed of Dedication covers the relocated Public Right of Way as being a Dedicated Right of
Way, "Fee Title", and not an Easement.
In my years of Consulting Municipal Management, the firm and the Municipalities that I worked
for, are the basis for my comments, and concern regarding the methods followed in this
Development.
If you or any of the City Staff Members have any questions or comments, please, contact our
office.
Sincerely,
Kess &

Subject: Green Acres Storage Facility 2126 Holliday Drive Dubuque, Iowa
Mr. Green,
This letter is written in reference to your request for a summary of our professional
interaction as it regards development of your storage facility in Dubuque in 2012.
In February of 2012 you and Steven Smith rezoned the property at 2126 Holliday Drive
from PC Planned Commercial to C-3 General Commercial zoning district. Both the
Zoning Advisory Commission and City Council approved your request.
Subsequent to the rezoning you and your engineering firm, Buesing and Associates,
submitted a site plan as required. The site plan was complete and well drafted and
included a robust landscape plan and detailed storm water management measures as
per the City's Unified Development Code requirements. A building permit for the
project was issued on July 12, 2012. The building was erected in a timely fashion and
the site plan provisions have all been completed. The landscaping is especially
attractive and exceeds the City's requirements.
In short, Mr. Green, you have complied with all City requirements in a timely,
professional and courteous fashion and have been a pleasure to work with. I believe
that yours is an attractive, well designed and built facility that contributes to the citizens
of Dubuque and the local economy. Thank you.

To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing in regards to Mr. Seth Green and Green Acres Storage. Mr. Green built his
storage facility here in Marion in 2007 and completed an addition in 2014. The business is
very attractive, secure and well managed. Mr. Green has been great to work with over the
years and very responsive to any concerns or issues that are identified on his property;
taking care of most concerns himself before they become a concern of the City. The storage
facility is attractive, the security system is maintained and the operation is lighted
appropriately. The grounds are attractive and well -kept; and the building, both inside and
out is immaculate. In my opinion there is a right way to conduct business and a wrong way,
both which may be successful; however when conducting business in the right way you are
not only successful but respected in the community; Mr. Green is respected in the
community.
While I cannot speak directly to the proposed location or any zoning concerns associated
with the project in Waterloo; I can speak to the professionalism of Mr. Green. He will do
what he says or agrees to do and will work with the City to ensure that his operation is
attractive, well -kept and highly regarded in the community.
On a personal note, I not only worked with him when he brought his business to Marion,
but I have also rented both vehicles and mini storage facilities from him. The vehicles I
rented were very clean and in great condition; and, the units were secure, safe and very
well kept.
If you have and questions or comments regarding Mr. Green or his business operations in
Marion please do not hesitate to contact me at 319-743-6321.
Sincerely,
i

Dear City Council Members:
On Tuesday I attended my last Planning & Zoning meeting as a commission member and it was a good note on which to end. The meeting was held for the Green Acres request off of San Marnan.
I voted for the Green Acres request when it first came up last month (I think it passed unanimously) and I voted for it again on Tuesday (also unanimous, if I recall correctly). I thought it was a good project
and was much more professional than the typical storage facility - the level of information about design removed a lot of my fears about typical storage places and I was able to see the Dubuque Green Acres
location and was impressed. (I also heard from a friend, Jesse Knight, who dealt with the Green Acres facility in Cedar Rapids and had very good things to say about the company and facility).
The reason I'm writing today, though, is that the vote on Tuesday came after our Monday night school board meeting where we started the process of setting our property tax rate. By some stroke of good
fortune we were able to drop our property tax rate by $0.35 thanks in great part to 1) increasing enrollment and 2) how the state aid portion of our revenue is factored in. With that said, we had to overcome
a drop in our overall taxable valuation for the second year in a row. The school district has slightly different borders than the city, but its very much connected. The taxable value we've had to work with is:
2014: $2,581,416,801 (-0.96%)
2013: $2,606,445,135 (-3.12%)
2012: $2,690,263,301 +2.68%
2011: $2,620,076,377 +6.98%
2010: $2,449,140,080 +2.71%
I wanted to bury my head in my hands Monday night when I saw our valuation dropped for the second year in a row. That is a huge burden, even without considering inflation. Last year, we explained it away
with the revaluation. This year, though, I was expecting it to take a big bounce back up.
Flash forward to Tuesday at the P&Z meeting when I sat down and read that neighbors of the Green Acres site were opposing it because it wasn't the highest and best use of the land. That would all be
well and good if the land there had just recently been made available or was mostly (even a decent percentage) built up. However, I remember when Tower Park was built decades ago and thought that area
would take off. Instead, I believe it is 12% developed. So when I heard the arguments about it lowering property tax values (???) or not having the highest and best use, I wanted to either bury my head in my
hands again or else scream "Its $%@!#&* cornfields and vacant lots overgrown with weeds right now that have next to no taxable value so you want us to turn a good, quality project away so you can keep
those lots overgrown with weeds while we try to scratch and claw away at our school property tax rate?" (At that point, I bit my tongue and realized its probably a good time for me step away from the com-
mission before I said something really stupid.)
I'm not saying we as a city have to approve any and every sort of development just to chase the tax dollars. I realize there is much more nuance to all of this. I'm also not pointing the finger on the lower
taxable valuation at you or anyone else. I'd have to point it at myself and the school district as well, and I also know there is much more nuance to valuations, too. However, I do think its a topic we have to
broach and that is why I'm writing you now. I sincerely think we're all better off by a growing tax base, where that growth comes from good (they're never going to be perfect) projects from real, live owners
who are willing to put their money into these projects and our community (rather than those sitting on the sidelines telling others how to spend their money or take on those risks or throwing out pipe dreams
to try and derail realistic options).
With that, I'm putting my Planning & Zoning Commission files on the shelf - both literally and figuratively. You have a very good P&Z staff and I enjoyed working with them and the commission members. They
are all good people. I also want to close by thanking each of you for your service to the city. I'm stepping off the school board in September but I've always appreciated how hard you and the city are working
for the betterment of our entire community. We're all in this together.
Thank you.
- Mike
