CITY OF SIOUX CITY REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
MEETING DATE: March 5, 2018 ACTION ITEM # 4 FROM: Chris Myres, Economic Development Specialist
Resolution supporting the submission of an Iowa Economic Development Au- thority (IEDA) Application for the Workforce Housing Tax Credit Program for SUBJECT: 2017 SC Morningside Partners, LLC (2627 South Rustin Street and 2728 South Helen Street)
Department Finance City City Reviewed By: x x x x Director Department Attorney Manager
RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully requests Council approval of the above resolution.
DISCUSSION: Background:
In 2014, the Iowa Legislature created the Workforce Housing Tax Credit Program to directly target the shortage of housing for new workers in Iowa. The goal of the program is to spur new housing growth that will help address the State’s pending workforce shortage. While the pro- gram is designed for rehabilitation of existing downtown structures and infill multi-family devel- opments, under certain circumstances, the benefits of the program are also available to new greenfield multi-family and single-family developments. Sioux City was designated as a “Dis- tressed Housing Community” which is necessary to allow greenfield projects to receive benefits under this program.
The program provides a transferable investment tax credit of up to $15,000 per unit as well as a refund of sales and use tax paid on the project. In an attempt to keep housing developed through the program affordable, a cap on expenses equal to $200,000 per unit ($250,000 for historical structures) has been set.
Current Project – Morning Hills and Southview Apartments: Lew Weinberg is the Managing Member of 2017 SC Morningside Partners, LLC and has com- pleted several other successful housing developments as part of other development entities. Mr. Weinberg owns the Morning Hills Apartments at 2627 South Rustin and Southview Apart- ments at 2728 South Helen Street. This project will entail the complete renovation of seventeen buildings (128 units total) on these two properties. The project represents a capital investment of more than $3,500,000. The developer is eligible to receive a total of $417,559 in investment tax credits and sales tax refunds through the Workforce Housing Tax Credit Program.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Local match for this project will be provided through the City’s City-wide Urban Revitalization Program.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN: To expand development opportunities, develop the resources to support economic growth, and develop new business sites.
ALTERNATIVES: None recommended

Staff respectfully requests City Council award a purchase order to Hawkins Inc., Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in the total amount $1.295/gallon for the purchase of sulfuric acid for the Water Treatment Plant (Bid #250792).

Invitations to bid were sent to eight (8) companies thought to provide sulfuric acid. One bid was received. That bid being from Hawkins Inc. at $1.295 per gallon for an approximate yearly total of $46,620.00. This price will be held for one calendar year beginning April 1, 2018.
Any, and all, chemicals used in the water treatment process need to be NSF approved. NSF approved sulfuric acid is in high demand due to shortages following the hurricanes in the south- ern states, so much so that other chemical vendors cannot obtain a supplier resulting in a limited number of bidders. Sulfuric acid is used to adjust PH during the treatment process which in turn protects the membrane fibers in the microfiltration membrane skids.

7. Unfinished Business
8. New Business A. Updated Circulation Policy [Action Item] Rigdon is requesting revisions to the Circulation Policy. Videocassettes, Audiocas- settes and Pamphlets have been removed from the collection and Rigdon would like the Circulation Policy to reflect this and remove these items from the Materials For Loan section of the policy. Due to a high amount of Interlibrary Loan requests at one time and also requests that are never picked up by the requesting patron, staff felt we needed to change the Circulation Policy. Rigdon also feels that the request for pur- chase section of the policy implies that we will purchase every request. The Other Services section of the Circulation Policy has been updated to remove Request for Purchase and Interlibrary Loans paragraph and replace with two new paragraphs titled Suggest a Title for Purchase and Interlibrary Loan. The Interlibrary Loan is for full ser- vice card holders in good standing and is limited to three requests per borrower at one time. A $3.00 per item fee is added for materials that have been requested and are not picked up in 7 days of notification. The corresponding fee sheet has been updated to reflect these changes.

5. PARKS AND RECREATION FEES
Salvatore reported the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board is required to approve proposed fees prior to the City Council approving them.

Griffith stated he compared fees to Four Seasons and the Sioux City Country Club; and, the proposed fees are 1/3 below their prices. The fee figures out to be approximately $3.80 a lesson. Wallace added no membership is required.
Griffith stated he met with reps from Four Seasons and the U.S. Tennis Association regarding the structure of the new tennis lesson program which will include practices, games, and a t- shirt. When broken down, the fee is about the same price per lesson. Palmersheim questioned if combining children ages 4-10 years will impact registrations. Griffith did not think so.
Griffith said this program is in line to receive a scholarship for rackets, balls, and nets. Brouil- lette asked if the City plans to offer a City tennis tourney.

6. BUDGET UPDATES
Salvatore said the Parks and Recreation budget has increased by 7.2% with a majority of this due to workmen’s compensation insurance. Cone Park is showing a break-even budget. A new FT position has been proposed which will provide support to recreation and aquatics. The position will be designated to Cone Park for three months and supporting Rec/Aquatics the remainder of the year. The position will be responsible for expanding recreation programs and must be fully funded from Cone Park.
Griffith said as of January 31, the attendance at Cone Park had reached 11,000 people. Sal- vatore said total expenses to date are $145,000; and, revenue is $126,000. In this first season, the City contracted with a snowmaking company to assist with start-up. In FY19, one person will be contracted again for four weeks to assist with start-up of the second season. This cost will be phased out.
Brouillette asked about the targeted closing date for Cone Park. Salvatore said it tentatively set for February 28; although, the ice rink may stay open longer than the hill. Reservations are not needed to ice skate. A full report will be provided after the season ends.
7. PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD CONCERNS
Brewer noted the importance of acknowledging non-profit organizations/individuals that helped with projects such as MRHD/Cone Park, Regina Roth/Pearl St Park, and Mayor’s Youth Commission/Disc Golf. She suggested nominating them for awards through the Iowa Parks and Recreation Association.
Griffith reported January’s revenue was 60% web based (on-line registrations).
Palmersheim requested the LLFRC report include two years for comparison.
Brouillette asked how cosmic tubing is going. Salvatore responded it is a hit. Griffith said it will also be offered on Thursday nights from 6 pm – 9 pm so families can take younger children as the 9 pm session on Fridays and Saturdays is too late. Palmersheim asked if it would be $7 or $10. Griffith said it will be $7.
Brouillette questioned lodge rentals. Salvatore said staff plans to ramp up advertising of this soon.
Salvatore commented this season the Bandits are donating $1 per ticket to the Sioux City Parks and Recreation Foundation.
Brouillette suggested having the Musketeers or Bandits make an appearance at Cone Park and tube with patrons.
Palmersheim said he received a citizen concern regarding Cone Park. The citizen said after tubing down the hill, he went between the crash barriers. Griffith said they have since affixed the modular barriers together to fix this issue.
Palmersheim reported on the east side of the hill, there are mats that have ridges. The mats are sliding from their needed positions and should be situated in the opposite direction. Sal- vatore said they will turn the mats vertical instead of horizontal. This area receives a lot of traffic and becomes icy. The mats prevent it from being so slippery.
8. ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 4:48 p.m., on motion by Brewer, seconded by Ruch; all voting aye.

MEETING DATE: March 5, 2018 ACTION ITEM # 12-13 Bob Padmore, City Manager FROM: Renae Billings, Economic Development Specialist
Hearing and Resolution determining an area of the City to be a blighted area and economic development area, and that the rehabilitation, conservation, redevelopment, development, or a combination thereof, of such area is nec- essary in the interest of the public health, safety or welfare of the residents of the City; designating such area as appropriate for urban renewal project; and adopting Amendment No. 2 to the amended and restated Combined SUBJECT: Floyd River Urban Renewal Plan for the Combined Floyd River Urban Re- newal Area
Hearing and Resolution accepting the proposal of HCC Enterprises, LLC for the purchase of certain land in the Combined Floyd River Urban Renewal Area, and authorizing a development agreement and minimum assessment agree- ment (Property located in the 500 block of South Lafayette Street)
Department Finance De- City City Man- Reviewed By: x x x x Director partment Attorney ager
RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully requests the City Council approve the proposed resolutions.
DISCUSSION: Current Project Mike Hesse, Jeff Carlson and Dustin Cooper have partnered together to form HCC Enter- prises, LLC with the intent to construct, own and operate a new multi-sport complex in Sioux City called The Arena. This facility will provide year-round athletic opportunities for the region, including youth sports training programs for basketball, volleyball, baseball, football, softball, etc., multi-sport leagues and tournaments, athletic showcase events, multi-court facility rent- als, coaching clinics, etc.
HCC Enterprises originally planned to invest $8 million to construct a new 68,000 square-foot facility on city-owned land in the former stockyards. After identifying a 50-foot sanitary sewer easement and a 25-foot electrical easement restricting the buildable land on the site, HCC En- terprises proposed relocating a portion of S. Lafayette Street to the west side of the property in order to shift their building footprint to the south. City staff presented this concept to Council on January 29, 2018 and received approval to start the 30-day notice period to sell the needed property and right-of-way.
Over the past several weeks, City staff has continued to work with HCC Enterprises as the plans have progressed for The Arena. HCC Enterprises is now proposing the construction of an 80,000 square-foot facility and total investment of $13 million. The Arena will include five basketball courts/eight volleyball courts, six batting cages, a turfed area for speed and agility training, a state-of-the-art weight training room, a media room, classrooms, locker rooms, and outdoor patio seating. A main court will be utilized for showcase events and championship games and will have seating for up to 3,000 people.
HCC Enterprises will be responsible for constructing and dedicating the new portion of the street on the west side of the property prior to the City vacating and selling the existing right- of-way for construction of the building. This will allow for continued access to the existing busi- ness to the south and for construction to begin on the Bomgaars Expo Center site. The Arena will be located just north of the Expo Center and the City will work with HCC Enterprises to al- low for complementary uses between the two facilities in terms of events and parking. Con- struction of The Arena is planned to begin in September 2018 and be completed in the sum- mer of 2019.
Proposal To assist with the project, City staff has worked to finalize a development agreement and mini- mum assessment agreement with HCC Enterprises, LLC which will, among other terms, con- vey the 7.444 acres of city-owned land along S. Lafayette Street to construct The Arena.
As part of the agreement HCC Enterprises, LLC will:
• Purchase the city-owned property for a price of $1.00. • Construct the realigned roadway and dedicate it to the City. • Commit to investing $13 million to construct a new multi-sport facility. • Enter into a minimum assessment agreement of $9.4 million. • Complete construction of the new facility no later than December 31, 2019.
As part of the agreement the City will:
• Sell the city-owned property to HCC Enterprises, LLC for a price of $1.00 in exchange for the improvements made to the property. • Provide financial assistance in the form of a $1,575,000 economic development grant. • Work with HCC Enterprises, LLC to allow for complementary uses between the Bom- gaars Expo Center and the multi-sport complex in the areas of events and parking.
The initial step to amend the urban renewal plan, start the required 30-day notice period to sell property in an urban renewal area, and set a date for final Council consideration of the de- velopment agreement and sale of property was approved by Council on January 29, 2018.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The City will benefit from increased property taxes resulting from the minimum assessment agreement, as well as an anticipated increase in tourism dollars from hosting regional sporting events.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN: To expand development opportunities, develop the resources to support economic growth, and develop new business sites.
ALTERNATIVES: None Recommended

Randy Mayer, MS, MPH Chief of Bureau of HIV, STD and Hepatitis Coordinator for Office of Medical Cannabidiol
Dear Mr. Clabaugh and Mr. Mayer:
Sioux City is aware that MedPharm Iowa, LLC will be submitting an application to the State of Iowa for a license to operate a medical cannabidiol dispensary in Sioux City. Further, it is our understanding that MedPharm Iowa has already been granted the sole cannabidiol manufacturing license in the State of Iowa.
In 2016, the City Council in Sioux City adopted a strategic plan focused on creating a dynamic and vital city that provides quality, cost-effective, and citizen-focused municipal services. The plan places an emphasis on enhancing public health by maximizing the utilization of technology, im- proved community engagement, and improved communications and facilities. I believe MedPharm Iowa will help Sioux City achieve this goal. MedPharm Iowa will utilize accepted phar- maceutical techniques to dispense a safe product while operating from exceptional facilities.
MedPharm Iowa is uniquely qualified for the dispensary license in Sioux City. The Des Moines based company has ties to our State and possesses knowledge relevant to operating a business in Iowa. I believe MedPharm Iowa will become a part of our community and become a true partner in improving the life of the citizens of Sioux City. On behalf of Sioux City, I am pleased to encour- age your support of the MedPharm Iowa application.
Respectfully,
Robert E. Scott Mayor of Sioux City

RECOMMENDATION: Staff respectfully requests and recommends the City Council approve the resolution requesting street and alley closures for the Awesome Biker Nights fundraising event.
DISCUSSION: The Awesome Biker Nights Planning Committee is requesting to temporarily close 4th Street from Virginia Street to Iowa Street and Court Street from Design Place to the east/west alley between 4th Street, 5th Street, Virginia Street and Iowa Street beginning at 3:00 p.m. June 14, 2018 and ending at 1:00 a.m. June 17, 2018 and temporarily closing 4th Street from Jennings Street to Virginia Street, 4th Street from Iowa Street to Floyd Boulevard, Virginia Street from 4th Street to 3rd Street, Iowa Street from 5th Street to 3rd Street, Court Street from Design Place to 3rd Street, 557 feet of the north/south alley between 3rd Street, Iowa Street, 5th Street and Floyd Boulevard, and all business front sidewalks on Historic 4th Street beginning at 3:00 p.m. June 15, 2018 and ending at 1:00 a.m. June 17, 2018 for the Awesome Biker Nights Fundraiser.
At the February 5, 2018 meeting, the City Council deferred the item and recommended the Awesome Biker Nights Board meet with the owners of M’s and SoHo to discuss the coordination of the temporary street closures, participation fees, and alcohol sales. All parties, along with staff from the Parks and Recreation Department and Downtown Partners, attended meetings held on February 12, 2018 and February 20, 2018. Outcomes of the meetings are as follows:
• Agreement to move forward with the temporary street closure requests and to include an exclusive non-event attendee entrance on Court Street, coordinated by volunteers, who will escort those wanting to gain access to various establishments without paying an event entry free. Awesome Biker Nights will provide the volunteers for this service.
• The event participation fee has been reduced from $1500 to $1000 for merchants wish- ing to vend outside of their establishment. Those wishing not to vend outside are not required to pay the fee and may have their establishments open for business during the event.
• Alcohol sold by Awesome Biker Nights at the event will be discussed and decided during the February 27, 2018 Awesome Biker Nights Board meeting. The application for Beer and Liquor License will come before City Council at an upcoming meeting if the organi- zation applies.
Awesome Biker Nights members contacted the Sioux City Police Department to discuss the number of officers needed and the hours of service. Due to the number of attendees for the event, the Police Department requires at least 18 officers; however, the hours of service can be reduced for a cost saving. Additionally, the Woodbury County Sheriff’s Office will donate Deputy hours toward the event.
Awesome Biker Nights is a motorcycle rally and concert fundraiser. The 2017 event benefited charities such as Big Brothers Big Sisters of Siouxland, Mid-Step Services, Sioux City Special Olympics, Crossroads Homeless Shelter, S.T.A.R.S., Crittenton Center, St. Florian Fire and Burn Foundation, Three Rivers, Cosmopolitan Club, and the Knights of the Columbus. In the past 18 years, Awesome Biker Nights has donated over $1.1 Million to these local charities.
Kinseth Hospitality Inc. has been contacted and confirmed no conflict will occur as a result of the proposed hotel construction. Kinseth will fence off the parking lot east of the Convention Center during the construction of the building. Additionally, no conflicting events are scheduled in the facility, at this time.
To promote safe community events, we propose to temporarily close these right-of-ways for the period specified.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: N/A
