�L�OOPrithENT AGREEMENT
This Dvelopment Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into as of
, 2019, by and between Professional Lawn Care, LLC ("Company"),
and the -City of Waterloo, Iowa ("City").
RECITALS
A. City considers economic development within the City a benefit to the
community and is willing for the overall good and welfare of the community
to provide financial incentives so as to encourage that goal, and the City
further believes that the project is in the vital and best interests of the City
and that the project and such incentives are in accordance with the public
purposes and provisions of applicable State and local laws and
requirements under which the project has been undertaken and is being
assisted.
B. Company is willing and able to finance and construct three buildings and
related improvements on property located in the East Waterloo Unified
Urban Renewal and Redevelopment Plan Area, formerly known as the
Airport Area Development Plan area, and legally described on Exhibit "A"
attached hereto (the "Property").
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein,
the parties agree as follows:
1. Sale of Property; Title. Subject to the terms hereof, City shall convey the
Property to Company for the sum of 51.00 (the "Purchase Price"). Conveyance shall be
by quit claim deed, free and clear of all encumbrances arising by or through City except:
(a) easements servitudes, conditions and restrictions of record; (b) current and future
real estate real property taxes and assessments subject to the agreements made
herein; (c) general utility and right-of-way easements serving the Property; and (d)
J
restrictions imposed by the City zoning ordinances and other applicable law. City shall
have no duty to convey title to Company until Company delivers to City reasonable and
satisfactory proof of financial ability to undertake and carry on the Project (defined
below), which may take the form of a lending commitment letter. City shall, at its own
expense, prepare an updated abstract of title, or in lieu thereof Company may, at its
own expense, obtain whatever form of title evidence it desires. If title is unmarketable
or subject to matters not acceptable to Company, and if City does not remedy or
remove such objectionable matters in timely fashion following written notice of such
objections from Company, Company may terminate this Agreement. City shall provide
any title documents it has in its possession, including any abstracts, to assist in title
review.
2. Improvements by Company. Company shall construct on the Property
three new commercial buildings, in size to be substantially as depicted on the site plan
attached hereto as Exhibit "C," and related parking, landscaping, and other
improvements to the buildings and grounds (collectively, the "Improvements"). The
Improvements shall be constructed in accordance with all applicable City, state, and
federal building codes and shall comply with all applicable City ordinances and other
applicable law. Parking shall meet City's minimum requirements based on building use,
occupancy, and future intended development on the Property. Company shall submit
specific building designs and site plans for City review and approval, as provided in
Section 4 below. Company will use its best efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, in
a timely manner, all required permits, licenses and approvals, and will meet, in a timely
manner, all requirements of all applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations
which must be obtained or met before the Improvements may be lawfully constructed.
The Property, the Improvements, and all site preparation and development -related work
to make the Property usable as contemplated by this Agreement are collectively
referred to as the "Project".
3. Timeliness of Construction; Possibility of Reverter. Company must
obtain a building permit and begin construction within six (6) months from the date of
this Agreement (the "Project Start Date") and substantially complete construction within
twelve (12) months thereafter (the "Project Completion Date").
If Company has not, in good faith, begun the construction of the
Improvements by the Project Start Date, then title to the Property shall revert to the City,
except as provided in this Agreement; provided, however, that if construction has not
begun by the Project Start Date but the development of the Project is still imminent, the
City Council may, but shall not be required to, consent to an extension of time for the
construction of the Improvements, and if an extension is granted but construction of the
Improvements has not begun within such extended period, then the title to the Property
shall revert to the City after the end of said extended period. If Company determines at
any time that the Project is not economically feasible, then after giving thirty (30) days'
advance written notice to City, Company may convey the Property to City by special
warranty deed, free and clear of Liens (defined below), and thereupon neither party
shall have any further obligation under this Agreement except as expressly stated,
provided that Company shall indemnify and hold harmless City as set forth in Section 4.
If development has commenced by the Project Start Date or any extended period and is
stopped and/or delayed as a result of an act of God, war, civil disturbance, court order,
labor dispute, fire, or other cause beyond the reasonable control of Company, the
requirement that construction is to be completed by the Project Completion Date shall
be tolled for a period of time equal to the period of such stoppage or delay, and
thereafter if construction is not completed within the allowed period of extension the title
to the Property shall revert to the City after the end of said period.
4. Reverter of Title; Indemnity. In the event of any reverter of title,
Company agrees that it shall, at its own expense, promptly execute all documents,
including but not limited to a special warranty deed, or take such other actions as the
City may reasonably request to effectuate said reverter and to deliver to City title to the
Property that is free and clear of any lien, claim, charge, security interest, mortgage or
encumbrance (collectively, "Liens") arising by or through Company. Company shall pay
in full, so as to discharge or satisfy, all Liens on or against the Property. Appointment
of Attorney in Fact: If Company fails to deliver such documents, including but not
limited to a special warranty deed, to City within thirty (30) days of written demand by
City, then City shall be authorized to execute, on Company's behalf and as its attorney-
in-fact, the special warranty deed required by this Section, and for such limited purpose
Company does hereby constitute and appoint City as its attorney-in-fact.
Company further agrees that it shall indemnify City and hold it harmless
with respect to any demand, claim, cause of action, damage, or injury made, suffered,
or incurred as a result of or in connection with the Project, Company's failure to carry on
or complete same, or any Lien or Liens on or against the Property of any type or nature
whatsoever that attaches to the Property by virtue of Company's ownership of same. If
City files suit to enforce the terms of this Agreement and prevails in such suit, then
Company shall be liable for all legal expenses, including but not limited to reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred by City. Company's duties of indemnity pursuant to this
Section shall survive the expiration, termination or cancellation of this Agreement for
any reason.
5. No Encumbrances; Limited Exception. Until completion of the
Improvements, Company agrees that it shall not create, incur, or suffer to exist any
Liens on the Property, other than such mortgage or mortgages as may be reasonably
necessary to finance Company's completion of the Improvements and of which
Company notifies City before Company executes any such mortgage. Company may
not mortgage the Property or any part thereof for any purpose except in connection with
financing of the Improvements.
6. Utilities. Company will be responsible for extending water, sewer,
telephone, telecommunications, electricity, gas and other utility services to any location
on the Property and for payment of any associated connection fees.
3
7. Minimum Assessment Agreement. Company acknowledges and
agrees that it will pay when due all taxes and assessments, general or special, and all
other lawful charges whatsoever levied upon or assessed or placed against the
Property. Company further agrees that, prior to the date set forth in Section 2 of the
Minimum Assessment Agreement (the "MAA") attached hereto as Exhibit "B", it will not
seek or cause a reduction in the assessed valuation for the Property, which shall be
fixed for assessment purposes, below the aggregate amount of $723,920.00 ("Minimum
Actual Value"), through:
(i) willful destruction of the Property (other than the demolition
authorized herein), Improvements, or any part of either;
(ii) a request to the assessor of Black Hawk County; or
(iii) any proceedings, whether administrative, legal, or equitable, with
any administrative body or court within the City, Black Hawk
County, the State of Iowa, or the federal government.
Company agrees to sign and deliver the MAA to City concurrently with execution and
delivery of this Agreement.
8. Additional Improvements; Tax Rebates. The parties contemplate that
Company may construct additional improvements (the "Additional Improvements") in the
future. Provided that (a) Company enters into a new minimum assessment agreement
reasonably acceptable to City with respect to the Additional Improvements, (b) the
Additional Improvements are substantially completed within thirty-six (36) months after
the date of this Agreement, and (c) the total minimum actual value of the Additional
Improvements, when combined with the Minimum Actual Value stated above, is at least
$1,000,000.00, then Company will be eligible for the property tax rebates provided for in
this Section. Provided that Company has fulfilled the requirements of this Section, City
agrees to rebate property tax (with the exceptions noted below) as follows:
Year One through Year Five 50% rebate each year
for any taxable value that exceeds $125,000.00. Rebates are payable in respect of a
given year only to the extent that Company has actually paid general property taxes due
and owing for such year. To receive rebates for a given year, Company must, within
twelve (12) months after the tax payment due date, submit a completed rebate request
to City on the form provided by or otherwise satisfactory to City, or the rebate shall be
forfeited.
The taxable value of the Property as a result of the Improvements must be
increased by a minimum of 10% and must increase the annual tax by a minimum of
$500.00. This rebate program is not applicable to any special assessment levy, debt
service levy, or any other levy that is exempted from treatment as tax increment
financing under the provisions of applicable law.
4
The first year of in which a rebate may be given ("Year One") shall be the
first full year for which the assessment is based upon the completed value of the
Improvements and Additional Improvements, and not based on a prior year for which
the assessment is based solely upon (x) the value of the Property or upon (y) the value
of the Property and a partial value of the Improvements and Additional Improvements
due to partial completion of the Improvements and Additional Improvements or a partial
tax year.
9. Additional Covenants of Company. In addition to the other promises,
covenants and agreements of Company as provided elsewhere in this Agreement,
Company agrees as follows:
A. The Property will have a taxable value as set forth in the MAA, and
Company agrees that the minimum actual value of the Property and completed
Improvements as stated in the MAA will be a reasonable estimate of the actual
value of the Property and Improvements for ad valorem property tax purposes.
Company agrees that it will spend enough in construction of the Improvements
that, when combined with the value of the Property and related site
improvements, will equal or exceed the assessor's minimum actual value for the
Property and Improvements as set forth in the MAA.
B. Until termination of the MAA, Company will maintain, preserve and
keep the Property, including but not limited to the Improvements, in good repair
and working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and from time to time will

defense in any proceedings of any type or nature, including but not limited to
delinquent tax proceedings, and (2) it will not seek any tax deferral, credit or
abatement, either presently or prospectively authorized under Iowa Code
Chapter 403 or 404, or any other state law, of the taxation of real property
included within the Property.

Agreement, Company agrees that (1) it will not undertake, in any other
municipality in Black Hawk County, the construction or rehabilitation of any
commercial property as a primary location for Company's business operations of
the type to be conducted on the Property, and (2) it will make no conveyance,

subject to centralized assessment or taxation by the State of Iowa.
E Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, when due, all real property
taxes and assessments payable with respect to any and all parts of the Property.

inapplicability or constitutionality of any such tax statute or regulation as a
defense in any proceedings of any type or nature, including but not limited to
