Council Communication

Department: Legal
Case/Project No.:
Submitted by: Graham Jura 
Resolution 22-242
ITEM 7.F.
Council Action: 9/26/2022
Description

Resolution authorizing the Mayor to enter into and execute an Amended Urban Meadow Restoration Project Agreement with The 712 Initiative pertaining to 15.66 acres of City owned property located in the Mid-City Corridor, City of Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County, Iowa. 
Background/Discussion

Since this City Council previously authorized the Urban Prairie Restoration Project Agreement in May, 2022, it has been agreed by the parties that it may be necessary to do controlled burns of the property in order for the project to achieve the goals of restoration. Since this will involve the Council Bluffs Fire Department, and involves the burning of land within City limits, it has been determined that the matter should return to the Council so they are aware of the change and are able to review the Amended Agreement and authorize the execution. 
Recommendation

Approval is recommended.
