Memo to Waterloo Mayor and City Council:
RE: Bidding out Satellite Wet Well Project # 907
Background Discussion
Due to long term corrosion, AECOM has been hired to prepare plans and specifications for this
project. The project will include the rehabilitation of concrete, piping and other appurtenances
at the Satellite Wet Well in the Paw Wastewater Pumping Station building at the WPCF, this
work will be performed first. The project will also include similar restorative work at the sludge
transfer wet wells at the WPCF and at the influent pump station at the anaerobic lagoon site.
In each case, the associated corrosive nature of the wastewater has caused excessive damage
to the facility structure and requires a lining with the ability to withstand the corrosive
environment.
The project has involved a thorough review and approval from IDNR. The project is now ready
to bid. The notice of public hearing is scheduled for September 17, 2018 with the bid opening
for September 1.3, 2018,. and official bid reading and potential award on the September 17,
2018 city council meeting. This project is part of the approved CIP process and funded from
the sewer fund.

MEMO
To: Council Members and Mayor Hart
From: Kelley Felchle
cc: Dave Zellhoefer
Date: August 15, 2018
Re: Council Vacancy
I received an email from Mr. Shimp on August 10, 2018 stating he resigned as the Ward 5 Council
member effective immediately. When a vacancy occurs, Council must take steps to fill the position by
either appointment or special election. Time constraints, cost, and process are important with either
option. Below is an explanation of both methods for filling the vacancy and factors Council will need to
consider.
Appointment
Council must pass a resolution electing to fill the vacancy by appointment and directing the publication
of a notice of intent to fill the vacancy by appointment. Notice must be published in the paper not less
than four and not more than twenty days prior to the date Council considers the appointment. Council
can determine its own process for identifying potential candidates but has to make an appointment
within 60 days after the vacancy occurs. The 60-day deadline for appointing a new Ward 5 Council
member is October 9. The appointed individual would need to take the oath of office within 10 days of
the appointment. An individual appointed to fill a vacancy only serves until the next pending election
not for the remainder of the term. In this case, even though the term does not expire until 2021, the
race will be on the 2019 November ballot to fill the vacancy.
Residents of Ward 5 can petition to fill the vacancy by special election rather than by appointment.
The petition must be filed within 14 days after the appointment is made or the notice is published in the
paper, whichever is later. The petition must and contain a sufficient number of signatures of eligible
electors of the ward. In this case, the petition must contain 158 signatures (10 percent of the votes for
Ward 5 Council member in the previous city election).
Special Election
1. If Council fails to appoint a replacement within 60 days, the City Clerk must give notice of the
vacancy to the County Auditor. The County Auditor must call for a special election at the
Page 49 of 111
earliest practicable date but no sooner than 32 days after notice is received from the City
Clerk. If this scenario occurred, the special election would occur on Tuesday, Dec. 1. This is
because an election cannot occur during the four-week blackout period before and after a
general election
2. If Council chooses to fill the vacancy by special election, it must pass a resolution directing the
City Clerk to send notice to the County Auditor with the date of the election. Below is a listing
of dates for Council action and options for each date of action.
a. Monday, August 20 meeting: Council has the following options for this meeting:
1. Call for a special election on the earliest practicable date, which is Sept. 25.
A runoff election would occur on Tuesday, December 11.
2. Call for a special election held in conjunction with the November 6 general
election. Council must make this decision no later than Monday, August 20,
because the candidate filing deadline for the general election is Wednesday,
August 29.
b. Monday, August 27 meeting: Council can call for a special election on the earliest
practicable date, which would be October 2. A runoff election would occur on
Tuesday, December 11.
c. Notice after August 31: If the Council gives notice after Friday, August 31, the
election would occur on Tuesday, December 11. This is due to the blackout period
and the August 29 candidate filing deadline for the general election will have passed.
Cost
The cost of a separately held special election would be similar to the Ward 1 special election held in
July 2016, which was $6,000. A runoff election would cost an additional $6,000. If the election occurs
with the general election, the county will absorb the cost for the first election but not for the runoff.

more efficient audit processes and deeper knowledge of their organization. RSM is a national firm

active participants working to support and grow the community.
We understand your business and operations. The key members of your proposed engagement
team serve a large number of governmental entities each year. This means that we understand the
issues unique to municipal operations and will not require on-the-job training—from understanding the
risks relating to funding sources to managing compliance with the grant programs. Working with

find it reassuring to be able to call experienced professionals and seek their advice whenever
needed. We believe you will find our responsive service is different from what you will find with other
accounting firms.
Our governmental practice has gained a national reputation for excellence. Many of our
governmental clients have been referred to us by regulators, among whom we have developed a
reputation for providing quality auditing services. In addition, we have assisted many clients in
receiving and maintaining the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) Certificate of
Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting. If the City were ever to decide to pursue this
GFOA certificate, we have the resources and capabilities to assist the City in accomplishing this.
Our approach to the audit engagement will establish a delivery system for providing a truly exceptional
level of service. Each element of that system, including team structure, staffing, audit approach,
communication and coordination, has been examined and refined to fit the needs of the City. In the
following pages, our goals are to demonstrate how the City will benefit from selecting our firm as your
professional services provider, underscore our commitment to providing you a quality audit at a
competitive fee and lay the foundation for an ongoing relationship.
We look forward to contributing to the City's long-term success. Once you have had the opportunity to

CITY OF WATERLOO
VIRDEN CREEK FLOODWALL
U.S. HIGHWAY 63 TO 4TH STREET
SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT NO. 2
WHEREAS, a Professional Services Agreement was entered into between City of Waterloo, Iowa,
(Client), and AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (ATS), of Waterloo, Iowa, dated June 27, 2011, for
increasing the flood protection level of the Virden Creek channel and earthen levee from U.S.
Highway 63 to Gates Park near 4th Street in Waterloo, Iowa; and
WHEREAS, the Client and ATS entered into Supplemental Agreement No. 1 on December 11,
2017, for additional design, including collecting additional stream channel data, completing a
hydrologic review of the project area and preparing a hydraulic model of the stream using the new
data; and
WHEREAS, the Client and ATS now desire to enter into Supplemental Agreement No. 2 for
additional structural design.
NOW THEREFORE, it is mutually agreed to amend the original Professional Services Agreement
as follows:
I. Project Description
AECOM completed hydraulic modeling for the Virden Creek floodwalls as part of
Supplemental Agreement No. 1. This work involved recreating the FIS modeling in HEC-
RAS. The recreated or corrected effective model used the same hydrology as the original
model. However, based on the updated topography and hydraulic modeling outputs, there
were some differences (both increases and decreases) from the published Base Flood
Elevations (BFEs) shown in the FIS. The increase in the BFEs shown in the corrected
effective modeling required additional structural design to the floodwalls that were initially
based on the published BFE values.
II. Scope of Services
The Scope of Services for this supplemental agreement will encompass and include
detailed work, services, materials, equipment, personnel and supplies necessary to
complete the remaining structural design of the Virden Creek floodwalls. Quality control
reviews are also included for this additional design work. The following identifies tasks
leading to the completion of the additional work in this supplemental agreement:
Task 1 -Additional Structural Design and Plan Revisions. Floodwalls will be designed using
Corps of Engineers standards to accommodate the updated base flood elevations for
Virden Creek. This will require structural revisions to be designed and incorporated in the
plan set.
Task 2 - Quality Control Review and Administration. This task includes quality control
review by senior technical staff not directly involved in the updated structural design. This
task also includes project coordination for the plan revisions.

Compensation for the above services will be on an hourly basis in accordance with Part VI
ofthe original agreement and shall beintegrated with the fees inthe original agreement and

Submitted by: Submitted By:Noel Anderson, Community Planning and Development
Director
Recommended Action: Approval
The City of Waterloo recently approved a purchase agreement with John and
Dessie Rottinghaus to purchase 19.08 acres of land along North Elk Run
Road. The acquisition is contingent on the area being annexed into the City
of Waterloo, and the Northeast Industrial TIF District expanded to include
the site, so that TIF funds can be utilized to acquire the site. The City has
initiated steps to annex the land, but has obtained consent of Black Hawk
County for both the annexation and the TIF expansion, so that we can
proceed with the TIF expansion prior to completion of the annexation. The
acquisition area is approximately 19.08, while the annexation is approximately
20.22 acres, as it includes adjoining right-of-way of North Elk Run Road.
Page 74 of 111
Summary Statement: The TIF expansion area is approximately 24.57 acres, as it includes
additional right-of-way of North Elk Run Road. Amendments to a TIF Plan
require a consultation with taxing entities, which was held on July 17, 2018.
The amendment will also update projects and include additional projects and
update related financial information, and include other general updates to the
Plan.
The Planning, Programming and Zoning Commission reviewed the proposed
amendment at their regular meeting on June 5, 2018 and unanimously
recommended approval of the amendment.

NORTHEAST INDUSTRIAL AREA URBAN RENEWAL AND
REDEVELOPMENT PLAN
(AMENDMENT NO. 5 - 2018)
Page 76 of 111
INTRODUCTION
The City of Waterloo 2010 Strategic Development Plan states the need to diversify and increase
the property tax base by encouraging the retention and expansion and attraction of business and
industry. The Land Use Plan states that the City should continually explore incentives to
encourage development and increase employment that will help the City achieve these goals.
Under the present circumstances, there is the need to bring about economic development; i.e., the
expansion of existing industry and the attraction of new industry, which will further diversify
and increase the property tax base and which will increase employment opportunities.
The 2010 Plan also states that the City of Waterloo should develop the Northeast Industrial Area
into a nationally recognized industrial park. This is made possible with the construction of North
Elk run Road, the sewage lagoon, and the proposed Martin Luther King Drive.
The Northeast Industrial Area Urban Renewal and Redevelopment Plan presents a proposal for
the location of an industrial park on various lands at and near the Northeast Industrial Area. The
Plan also will allow tax increment revenue to be used as incentives for the development of the
area. These incentives would be negotiated and approved on a project-by-project basis at future
dates.
To achieve the primary objectives of this Plan, the City of Waterloo shall undertake the urban
renewal actions as specified in this tax increment plan,pursuant to the powers granted to it under
Chapter 403 of the Code of Iowa, as amended.

developer for up to ten (10)years, or twenty(20) years for monumental
projects. The developer may use these funds in two ways: (1) to pay off
private debt incurred in financing the new construction and/or the
rehabilitation/renovation of an existing commercial building, or (2)to pay off
public improvements (street and/or parking improvements, extension of
skywalks, etc.) associated with enhancing the new development and/or the
9
Page 85 of 111
total rehabilitation/renovation project. A specific project agreement will be
required for each project.
The taxable value must be increased by a minimum of 10% and increase the
annual tax by a minimum of 5500.00. This program is not applicable to the
Self Supported Municipal Improvement District levy, other special tax
assessments, the debt service levy or any other levy exempted from treatment
as tax increment financing under applicable law.

bonds or other such obligations, or loan agreements for the purpose of making loans
or grant funds to private businesses located in the Project Area. Alternatively, the
City may determine to use available funds for making such loans or grants.
C. Tax Increment Financing

costs associated with the development of the Project Area. General obligation bonds,
tax increment revenue bonds or other such obligations or loan agreements may be
issued by the City. The tax increment reimbursement may be sought for, among other
things, the following costs (if and to the extent incurred by the City):

Jamie- see email below.
Let me know if this work for you to move ahead with median removal.
John -see me on a map to show the expansion capabifities through their acquisition of this land. It is pretty much
unbuildable stand alone, so this is by far the best case scenario for City to put it in their hands for expansion, and refieve
ourselves of the maintenance of it immediately,

Subject: City Property on Broadway St.
Noel,
I want to express an interest in acquiring a parcel of property currently owned by the City of Waterloo. Please
see the attached aerial view. This parcel is adjacent to the Waterloo branch of Heating & Cooling Supply Co.
Heating & Cooling Supply Co. has been fortunate to maintain steady growth for the last few years. Our
operations in Cedar Rapids, Davenport and Des Moines have all capitalized on opportunities in those markets.
We look forward to achieving similar success in the Waterloo market. Much of our growth is the result of good
planning and management of resources. As we build our road map for the future, we must prioritize our
opportunities. This is the logic we are using as we view the city property adjacent to our business on Broadway
St, There is no immediate need for that land but it could make future growth plans much easier. I believe the
City of Waterloo must decide whether it is better to continue to maintain this property with the hope selling it at
some later date or selling it to the adjacent property owner for$1.00.
