RECEIVEIFiLE:Dallas County Development Executive Director Linda Schaut &Mike Wille of Kirkham
Michael will update the Mayor/Council on the Ortonville Industrial Park.Dallas County Supervisor Joe
Reese was also present.Mike Wille addressed the Council regarding the Ortonville Industrial Park area.
Kirkham Michael has been retained by Dallas County to do a study regarding the provision of
infrastructure improvements to the Ortonville Industrial Park area West on Highway 6,between Waukee
and Adel.Last Tuesday an npdate presentation was given to the Dallas County Board of Supervisors by
Kirkham Michael reviewing what had been presented from the three commnnities;Dallas Center,Waukee,
and Adel as far as the provision of services to the Ortonville area.The County is considering establishing
an on sight wastewater treatment.plant.Xenia Rural Water is providing water,Discussed where natural
gas would come from.Mike Wille handed out cost estimates.The Ortonville Industrial Park Area is over
20 acres and is occupied by industrial uses.The major users of this property are Monarch Manufacturing
and Medical Industries.The County is considering an Industrial Park of 160 acres at the intersection of
County Road RI6 running North and South,and US Highway 6.With expansion plans to the East by
Monarch Manufacturing they are extending the boundary of the Industrial Park site to 240 acres.
Approximately 200 acres would be usable for industrial use.They are looking at transportation alignmeuts,
bringing R-16 so it comes in at one intersection with Highway 6.From that they would define a more
localized street system to serve the Industrial Park.I
6
Veenstra &Kimm presented three alternatives for the City of Wankee.I)Coming up the Sugar Creek
Valley,this is a long-term alternative.The cost would be approximately $6,000,000.00 to do this.2)
Another alternative would be a temporary solution.It would be a 2"force main just to serve the current
industrial uses now and some expansion,at a cost of approximately $400,000.00.3)A gravity sewer from
the Industrial site to the Richland Avenue intersection with Highway 6,putting in a pumping station and
pumping it east to the Fourth Street sanitary sewer,at a cost of approximately $1.6 million.By doing
gravity sewer there would be an area that would not be accessible.
The waterline is proposed to be a 16"running out to Ortonville producing 800 gallons per minute.
With all of the comparisons that were made Sanitary Sewer is the biggest issue.
The Dallas Center presentation was almost the same as Waukee.There would be a gravity sewer going to a
pumping station about %miles north of Highway 6 and a force main going up to the Waste Water treatment
Plant to the north,at a cost of approximately $851,000.00.
Water would be a 16"water main servicing the property to increase pressures provided to the Industrial
Park.
Waukee would bring out Natural Gas to the site along Highway 6 at a cost of approximately $318,000.00.
Mid-American Energy could also provide gas service a cost of approximately $300,000.00.Mid-American
energy would have to pay a gross up charge which is nearly 50%of the total cost of the project.
Adel's sewer proposal was gravity sewer coming out from their existing wastewater plant.One alternative
was to bring a gravity sewer along Highway 6 coming to the existing sanitary sewer system and go to the
pumping facility and then to the treatment plant.A gravity sewer coming from the plant along the flood
plain area on the east side of the Raccoon River and extending east would open more of the area for
development.A water tower would have to be built on the east side and with Xenia Water operating the
water tower.The Xenia and Adel waters systems would be connected
The Mayor asked if the DNR would allow a sewer line to cross the river.Councilman Gruber also voiced
his concerns regarding crossing the river.He felt it was an extremely low estimate for crossing the river.
The Mayor asked where these number carne from.Mike Wille stated they were provided for Dallas Center
and Waukee from Veenstra &Kimm.McClure provided them for the City of Adel.
City Administrator,Mark Arentsen,asked ifhe verified the assumptions that went into these numbers.He
wanted to know if there was a standard spec or a predetermined set of criteria that people had to respond to
generate these figures.Mike Wille stated that each community was asked to provided service to this area
and no one was give any specs.
Joshua Smith,Community Development Director,asked if there were two different engineers looking at
the projects.He felt the County should use the same engineer for all three communities to make it an even
comparison.
Councilman Peard wanted to know how they establish parameters.If you don't have parameters to judge
the cost on,it's pulling a number out of a bag.
Mike Wille stated they were on a tight time frame for doing this.Monarch needs to have a decision made.
This was first initiated in December.One of the first steps was to ask the Engineers to respond.Some
work had been done previously.He did not talk with the engineers personally,although he did talk with
McClure Engineering.He then described the location of the Industrial Park..
Kirkham &Michael was hired at a certain amount and part of this was to work with the local communities
and rely on their engineering firms.It would be too costly for them to do the analysis for each community.
7
Councilman Gruber discussed that the Dallas County paper had said that if Waukee provides sewer service
no one east of Ortonville could hook on.He felt this wasn't true.Mike Wille stated if Waukee went with a
force main other pumping facilities would have to be built.
The Mayor asked Mik Bredis if there is a danger in doing this process the way its been done.Mik stated he
felt that there were more questions that need to be resolved.One is the cost of the river crossing,he felt this
was understated.Waukee would serve approximately 1400 acres with a gravity sewer.Ade!'s proposal
would be serving 400 to 500 acres.Waukee could use a grinder pump and tap into the force main.This
would provide sewer service along the Highway 6 corridor.Mik feels Adel cost is understated and the
service area for Waukee is also understated.
Joe Reese,County Supervisor,told the Council that this started off as a crisis for Monarch Manufacturing.
The County took bids on proposal for doing this project.They are still looking at the feasibility of the
County doing this.The numbers they are getting from the various communities are to help define where
Dallas County belongs in this project,and what can be done for Monarch.Ortonville is included in the
Ade120-25 long-range plan.The Mayor stated that Monarch was a good business for Dallas County.He
wanted to know if it would be feasible to relocate them on some other property in Dallas County,within a
City where there is sewer available.Joe Reese stated the if there was any slant towards Ade1 it was
unintentional.There are developers looking at land in between Ade1 and Ortonville that would participate
in the cost in the gravity sewer line.There would be a three way split of the cost of the gravity sewer line
with the County,Ade1,and the development.This would benefit the County financially.Payment has not
been discussed.They are looking at the feasibility of this project.
The Mayor would like to keep the comments positive.
Linda Schaut,stated that Monarch contacted Dallas County and discussed their rapid growth and need to
expand immediately due to the economy.Monarch makes egress windows with their main market in
Colorado.Their other option is Colorado where additional land and their corporate headquarters is located.
They desire to stay at the Ortonville site.The County is looking at actively trying to market that area as an
industrial park.That is the reason for the infrastructure feasibility study.Monarch has looked at Ade1
Industrial Park;their second option is Colorado.They feel they need to either build where they are at or
build on their site in Colorado.
Arentsen asked if the County was participating financially or potentially participating in extending ntilities.
Joe Reese stated that they would be participating in the whole project in some point.There will be some
upfront costs to do that.Initially the County would have to be a part of this.Arentsen asked if that same
opportunity would be available to Waukee if it chooses to pursue this or some other opportunities further.
Joe Reese stated that was possible.
The Mayor asked when did they feel a decision would be made on this.Joe Reese stated they wanted this
done this month.
Concern was voiced regarding the lack of communication and being kept informed.When Joshua Smith
and John Gibson attended the meeting there was already a sewer extension schedule for Adel for the 18th of
February and not one from Waukee.Mike Wille stated they were just trying to put together a schedule if
they were to start right away and Ade1 should not have been on the papers.Joshua felt that Waukee was
not informed and that the lines of communication need to be kept open.It was the consensus of the
Council that we should have been invited as a major player in Dallas County.There should be a
communication sheet once a week with all of the communities to be evaluated equally.
The Mayor stated we are all Dallas County taxpayers and our Council has a lot of decisions to make every
meeting and they need as much information as possible to make those decisions.There are economic
repercussions for the taxpayers.There are also annexation issues that this could bring up that need to be
resolved.He would like everyone brought together to discuss a solution that works for everyone.We do
need to keep Monarch in Dallas County.I
8
The City of Waukee will be on the agenda tomorrow for 11:00.They will make this a work session and
want to hear all of the proposals.
RECEIVEIFILE:Discussion of Outstanding Amount Due from Jerry's Homes for Ashworth Dr.(General
Grant Parkway)Paving Project.City Administrator Arentsen stated that to date there has been $300,000.00
received.A bill in November was sent to Jerry's Homes for $324,000.Rick Ross and Mark have
scheduled a time to get together to discuss the remaining $24,000.00.Rick is questioning several items so
this meeting has been established to discuss these items.
RECEIVEIFILE:Discuss Exterior Material ordinance for New CommerciaUIndustriai Construction.The
Mayor asked that this be handled at the next Planning &Zorting Commission meeting.
RECEIVE/FILE:Discussion on Employee insurance benefits:Officer Daggett shared with the Council the
employee benefits insurance plan.GSI quote was for $12,550 per month.John Deere,PPO,is 10,879 per
month,it takes the life from $5000 to$20,000 and adds dental and vision.The potential savings is
$20,000.The employees would have to fill out the medical insurance form,Councilman Watts wanted to
know about setting up a cafeteria plan.This has been looked into.The Mayor wanted to know what the
time frame was in getting this information.The forms need to be filled out immediately so it can have a
March 1 start date.Initial rates are guaranteed for 12 months.Councilman Gruber asked questions
regarding paying on the dental plan.This is based on the 90 percentile.Moved by Councilman Gruber,
second by Councilman Peard to approve John Deere Insurance employee coverage provided we get the
coverage and the pricing originally quoted.The Mayor asked for a roll call vote.Ayes:Gruber,Peard,
Johnson,Watts,Berger.Nays:None.Motion carried 5-0.
RECEIVEIFILE:Discussion that all Commercial Property OwnerslDevelopers Will Be Automatically
Eligible for Rebate Formatted Tax Increment Financing District.The Mayor stated this issue was taken up
by the Development Committee.Attorney Bob Josten needs to clarify exactly what a qualified internal
improvement is.Mayor Bailey stated that new TIP valuations will continue to pay Debit Service.Joshua
Sntith stated that Bob Josten asked that the precise defirtition of internal improvements be left to each City.
Each case could be different.It would be hard to strictly define what internal improvements can be.The
City should sit down with the developer and come up with an agreement stating which internal
improvements would be included within the TIP Districts.The Mayor asked for some language
clarification.The recommendation is that no residential development ever be included in TIF District.
Only qualified internal improvements are eligible for reimbursable TIP dollars.Only rebate formatted TIP
Districts would automatically be eligible for developers,not TIP Districts which require bonding.(Any
improvements in the project would have to be fronted by the developer and then the TIP District would pay
the developer back.)All districts will have an l8-year sunset clause.Districts will be retired sooner if
possible.During that 18 year TIP there will be an 80 -20 split for the increment by all tax jurisdictions for
the first 12 years and a 50 -50 split the next 6 years.The Mayor would like language in there that says
Debt Service will continue to be paid as per the rate that year.
