Department: Development & Neighborhood Services Action / Date
Contact Info: Laura Berkley | 563-888-3553 4/1/2026

Subject:
Public Hearing for Case REZ26-02 being the request of Patrick Fennelly to rezone approximately
2.71 acres of property located south of Telegraph Road and east of South Utah Avenue (Parcel
#S3117-05) from AG Agricultural District to R -1 Single-Family Residential District. [Ward 1]

Recommendation:
Hold the Hearing.

Background:
The Petitioner is requesting a rezoning from AG Agricultural District to R-1 Single-Family
Residential District. The purpose of the rezoning request is to create a new single-family lot.
The site is currently being used for farming. The land contains wooded areas and steep
topography changes along the creek, making the eastern portion of the property difficult to
navigate. The most developable area is the ground adjacent to South Utah Avenue. The
property consists of one parcel encompassing approximately 10 acres. The owner intends to
subdivide the land into one new single-family lot along South Utah Avenue. The remainder of
the property will remain undeveloped and zoned AG Agricultural District. A survey of the
property has been provided by the applicant delineating the land to be rezoned. Following the
rezoning, the applicant intends to subdivide the land to separate the R-1 and AG property.

Plan and Zoning Commission Recommendation

At its March 17, 2026, meeting, the Plan and Zoning Commission unanimously voted to forward
Case REZ26-02 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval subject to the listed
findings.

Findings

 1. The zoning map amendment is consistent with the Davenport +2035 Land Use Plan,
 which identifies the property as Agricultural Reserve.
 2. The proposed zoning map amendment to R-1 Single Family Residential District is
 compatible with the zoning of nearby developed property.
 3. The zoning map amendment will enable the vacant site to be developed in a manner
 consistent with the surrounding area.
 4. The proposed amendment will not negatively impact the public health, safety, and
 welfare of the City.
 5. Rezoning the property to R-1 Single Family Residential District does not create any
 nonconformities.


Why is a Zoning Map Amendment Required?
The Zoning Ordinance does not permit a principal use of single-family dwelling in an agricultural
district, which are under 38 acres in area. A rezoning to R-1 Single-Family Residential District is
the least intensive zoning classification and is consistent with similar land uses on South Utah
Avenue.

Comprehensive Plan

Within Existing Urban Service Area: No
Urban Service Area 2035: Yes

Future Land Use Designations: The property is designated Agricultural Reserve (AR) in the
Davenport +2035 Land Use Plan. Agricultural Reserve (AR) — Areas located outside the Urban
Service Area and unlikely to develop in the foreseeable future. Uses should be limited to
agriculture and open space, with only limited residential development needing minimal urban
services.

Zoning: The property is currently zoned AG Agricultural District. This district is intended to
address existing agricultural land uses. The standards of the AG District promote the
continuation of farming and protect agricultural land uses from the encroachment of
incompatible developments. The applicant is requesting a rezoning of the property to R-1
Single-Family Residential District. This district is intended to accommodate the lowest-density
single-family neighborhoods within the City of Davenport, exhibiting a predominantly semi-
suburban development pattern of large lots and generous yards.

Approval Standards for Map Amendments (Chapter 17.14.040)

The Plan and Zoning Commission recommendation and the City Council decision on any zoning
text or map amendment is a matter of legislative discretion that is not controlled by any
particular standard. However, in making their recommendation and decision, the Plan and
Zoning Commission and the City Council must consider the following standards. The approval of
amendments is based on a balancing of these standards.

a. The consistency of the proposed amendment with the Comprehensive Plan and
any adopted land use policies.
Staff Response: The property is designated Agricultural Reserve (AR) in the Davenport +2035
Land Use Plan. This land use category is designated for areas located outside of the Urban
Service Boundary, which are unlikely to develop in the foreseeable future. Uses should be
restricted to agriculture and open space, with only limited residential development needing
minimal urban services.

b. The compatibility with the zoning of nearby property.
Staff Response: South Utah Avenue, north of West River Drive and South of Telegraph Road,
consists of a mix of properties zoned either R-1 Single-Family Residential District or AG
Agricultural District. Rezoning 2.7 acres to residential is compatible with the existing zoning
districts along the South Utah Avenue corridor. The petitioner's remaining 7.3 acres of land will
remain under the AG zoning, thereby retaining the low density housing, farming, and open
space character of the neighborhood. It is staff’s opinion that the proposed amendment is
compatible with the zoning of nearby property.
c. The compatibility with established neighborhood character.
Staff Response: There are fifteen continuous lots along the east side of Utah Avenue, south of
the subject property, containing single-family dwellings. Rezoning the site for the establishment
of two new single-family lots is consistent with the development of the surrounding area. The
low density creates a balance between residential and agriculturally zoned property. It is staff’s
opinion that the proposed amendment is compatible with the established neighborhood
character.

d. The extent to which the proposed amendment promotes the public health, safety,
and welfare of the City.
Staff Response: Rezoning the property to R-1 Single-Family Residential District will not be
detrimental to the surrounding area, which is predominantly single-family dwellings, agriculture,
and open space. It is staff's opinion that owners of agriculturally zoned property will not be
negatively impacted if the rezoning request is approved. In addition, the R-1 District is the most
comparable zoning district to the AG Agricultural District in terms of dimensional standards and
principal uses. The use restrictions imposed on the surrounding neighborhood will remain
consistent should the property be rezoned to R-1. It is staff’s opinion that the proposed zoning
map amendment will develop in a manner that promotes the public health, safety, and welfare
of the City.

e. The suitability of the property for the purposes for which it is presently zoned, i.e.
the feasibility of developing the property in question for one or more of the uses
permitted under the existing zoning classification.
Staff Response: A residence on an agricultural site may be established if the property is a
minimum of 38 acres. Given the petitioner owns 10 acres, no single-family home may currently
be developed on the property. Based on the plat of subdivision submitted by the applicant, a
total of one home can be constructed on the proposed 2.7 acre property. It is staff's opinion
that the proposed zoning map amendment will enable the area to be developed in a manner
consistent with the surrounding neighborhood.

f. The extent to which the proposed amendment creates nonconformities.
Staff Response: The proposed single-family lot, which has necessitated the zoning map
amendment, far exceeds the minimum standards of the R-1 Residential Single-Family Zoning
District. The minimum lot area in the R-1 District is 20,000 square feet (0.46 acres) while the
proposed lot is 118,22
square feet (2.7 acres). It is staff’s opinion that the proposed zoning map amendment will not
create any nonconformities.

Public Input

Letters were sent to property owners within 200 feet of the proposed request notifying them of
the March 3, 2026, Plan and Zoning Commission Public Hearing. To date, staff has not received
any responses from adjacent property owners.

Following the Plan and Zoning Commission's recommendation of approval, letters were sent to
property owners within 200 feet of the proposed request notifying them of the April 1, 2026.

Subject:
Third Consideration: Ordinance for Case ORD26-01 being the request of Palmer College of
Chiropractic to amend the Campus Land Use Plan, generally bounded by West 12th Street,
Harrison Street, 6th Street, and Pershing Avenue. [Ward 3]

Recommendation:
Consider the Ordinance.

Background:
Palmer College of Chiropractic is undergoing a comprehensive planning effort for their campus,
generally bounded by West 12th Street, Harrison Street, 6th Street, and Pershing Avenue. This
request amends the Campus Land Use Plan adopted in 2021, which focused on improvements
to the northeast corner of campus. This included the construction of VanDuyne Hall for student
housing, the outdoor turf recreational field, and the conversion of 11 Street into a pedestrian
corridor. Since these items have been implemented, the institution is identifying future projects
to be completed over the next ten years.

2026 Campus Master Plan Amendments

The proposed updates include improvements to the main campus entrance off Brady Street,
plans for a new academic facility, enhancements to off-street parking lots, expanded green
space, and potential sites for future student housing. The plan also prioritizes improved traffic
safety, particularly along Perry Street. In addition, the amendment updates the Institutional
Campus District boundaries to reflect recent property acquisitions.

Collectively, the proposed changes are intended to enhance campus access, safety, and overall
functionality while supporting the institution’s long-term growth. Additional details are provided
in the attached Campus Master Plan.

Zoning

Palmer College of Chiropractic is zoned IC Institutional Campus District, which is intended
to encourage a comprehensive approach to development by significant institutions within the
City. The IC District is also intended to:

 1. Further the policies of the Comprehensive Plan.
 2. Permit appropriate institutional growth within the boundaries of the district while
 minimizing the adverse impacts associated with development and geographic expansion.
 3. Balance the ability of specific institutions to grow and adapt to changing needs while
 protecting the livability and vitality of adjacent areas.
 4. Encourage the preparation of a land use plan for higher development intensity
 institutional campuses that enables the community to understand the levels of
 development being proposed, their likely impacts and appropriate mitigation measures.


The IC District operates with two levels of regulation. The first is a set of base district
regulations that provide for a certain intensity of development by-right. The second allows for
the approval of a land use plan, which must be approved by the City Council, that creates
regulations that allow for flexibility in the development and expansion of the institution above
the standards set by the base district regulations. Once a land use plan is submitted and
approved, the development proceeds in accordance with the plan rather than the base district
regulations.

Why is a land use plan required?

An approved land use plan is effective for a period of ten years, although updates and
amendments may be pursued during that time period. Development projects consistent with the
adopted land use plan will undergo administrative site plan and building permit review.

Palmer College of Chiropractic's previous Campus Master Plan was approved in 2021. Since that
time, the college has engaged in a comprehensive planning process to assess future growth and
development opportunities. As a result of this effort, an updated Campus Master Plan has been
prepared and formally submitted to the City for review and approval.

Plan and Zoning Commission Recommendation

At its February 17, 2026 meeting, the City Plan and Zoning Commission voted to forward Case
ORD26-01 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval subject to the listed findings.

Findings

 1. The land use plan is consistent with the Davenport +2035 Future Land Use Plan.
 2. The land use plan amendment is appropriate for an 'Educational Facility-University or
 College'.
 3. The proposed land use plan is generally consistent with the established institutional and
 residential character of the area.
 4. The land use plan is consistent with the principal uses permitted within the IC
 Institutional Campus District.
 5. The proposed zoning map amendment promotes the public health, safety, and welfare
 of the City.
 6. The proposed Campus Land Use Plan does not create any nonconformities.

IC Institutional Campus District
Major Amendment Description
December 26th, 2025

Reason for Major Modification to IC

 As part of Palmer College’s mission to continue to provide a world-class education to the
chiropractors of the future, we are constantly evaluating our campus to try to provide the best
facilities possible for our students, staff, and patients. During the most recent round of the
campus reviews, several areas of focus were identified for improvement in the campus footprint.
These updates include improvements to the main campus entrance off Brady Street, plans for a
new academic facility called the Palmer Forum, enhancements to parking, improved traffic flow
and wayfinding, and expanded green space and outdoor study areas. The plan also prioritizes
improved traffic safety along Perry Street and identifies potential sites for future student
housing. Together, these changes will strengthen the campus experience for students, staff,
and visitors alike.

The major amendments included in this submittal are:

1. The addition of properties to the campus footprint.
 a. Proposed changes to the campus boundary incorporate properties adjacent to the
 current boundary that have been acquired by Palmer College since the last Campus
 Master Plan was approved in 2021. Properties that are being incorporated into the IC
 footprint include:
 i. 1111 Perry Street
 ii. 208 E 11th Street
 iii. 822 Pershing Ave
 iv. 739 Perry Street (The Roslyn)
 v. 727 Perry Street
 vi. 725 Perry Street




2. The removal of the previously proposed mixed-use development east of Brady Street, North
 of Palmer Drive.
 a. The latest approved IC included a mixed-use development in the northern vicinity of
 the campus. When evaluating the plans for the development of the campus over the
 next 10 years, this property was not a priority. Palmer is removing the proposed
 development and showing the underlying properties as they currently exist in the
 future campus plan.
3. Vacation of Palmer Drive Right of Way and the revisions to the layout and use of the
 previous Palmer Drive Right of Way.
 a. One of the main focuses to come out of the review of the campus plan was the
 desire to develop a well-defined main campus entrance off Brady Street at the
 existing Palmer Drive location. The currently approved IC includes the closure of the
 east half of Palmer Drive with traffic being directed to the north to the alleyway
 between Brady Street and Perry Street. The updated campus plan proposes a
 similar layout, with some key changes. The east half of the vacated Palmer Drive
 will be changed to a pedestrian corridor, similar to the pedestrian corridor that was
 constructed on 11th Street. This pedestrian area will be designed to allow emergency
 services access through the area if necessary. The west half of Palmer Drive will be
 converted from a one-way road to a campus entrance. This entrance will allow drop-
 off near the campus center, have a roundabout to maintain access to the alleyway
 north of the road, and will have a new drive from the Palmer campus back onto
 Brady Street. This proposed layout has received preliminary approval from the Iowa
 DOT, and the drive will also be designed for emergency services access. Palmer
 would also like to use bricks that are salvaged from under the existing Palmer Drive
 Right of Way in the design of the new drive and walkway pavement sections.




4. Adding the Palmer Forum and associated outdoor plaza area.
 a. Another area of emphasis that came out of the latest campus review was the need
 for an academic space that could also act as a gathering space for large
 presentations or celebrations. Multiple areas of campus were investigated to find the
 most appropriate location for this space, and it was ultimately determined that a
 central campus location north of the Bechtel center was the best fit. This new
 building, the Palmer Forum, is intended to be flexible enough to host large and small
 classes, as well as graduation and speaker presentations. Adjacent to the proposed
 Palmer Forum, the new campus master plan includes an enhanced greenspace and
 outdoor study area. This area will be similar to other outdoor study spaces on
 campus such as the Keller Terrace, the Clinic Gardens, and the VanDuyne Hall
 courtyard.




5. Removing the previously approved closure of the west half of 9th street between Perry Street
 and Pershing Street.
 a. After evaluating traffic circulation patterns throughout the campus and discussing
 access with city emergency services personnel, it was determined that the benefits
 from the closure of this portion of 9th street would be outweighed by the impact on
 emergency access to the surrounding community. Because of this, Palmer is
 removing this proposed closure from the campus master plan.
6. Improved traffic safety features along Perry Street between 12th street and 9th Street.
 a. As part of the new campus master plan, Palmer is anticipating an increase in the
 pedestrian circulation in the center of campus. This area generally includes the 11th
 street pedestrian corridor, the VanDuyne Student housing courtyard, the proposed
 Palmer Drive pedestrian corridor, and the proposed Palmer Forum outdoor plaza.
 Though these areas are close in proximity, they are generally bisected by the Perry
 Street Right of Way. In order to encourage safe vehicular / pedestrian interactions in
 this area and to minimize the risk of any accidents occurring, Palmer is proposing
 three traffic calming bump outs along Perry Street between 12th street and 9th street.
 These bump outs would help consolidate pedestrian crossings on Perry Street while
 also slowing traffic as it passes through the center of the Palmer Campus.




7. Removing the previously approved partial closure of 8th Street between Main Street and
 Brady Street.
 a. With the addition of the proposed student housing and parking lots south of 8th street,
 the college determined that it would be more beneficial to have increased
 accessibility between Main Street and Brady Street than to continue the plan to close
 the west half of 8th Street. Because of this, the college is removing the proposed
 closure of 8th street from their campus master plan.



8. Adding sites for future student housing buildings east of Main Street.
 a. Due to the success of the VanDuyne student housing building, Palmer college
 determined that there is a sufficient desire for additional student housing within the
 campus footprint. To meet this demand, two student housing buildings as well as
 associated parking lots are being shown in the empty lot east of Main Street. These
 structures were shown in previous versions of the campus master plan but were
 removed with the latest approved IC when VanDuyne hall was added. The college
 believes that within the next 10 years there will be sufficient demand for on-campus
 housing to support the additional proposed units.



9. Removing the partial closure of 7th street between Main Street and Brady Street.
 a. With the addition of the proposed student housing and parking lots north of 7th street,
 the college determined that it would be more beneficial to have increased
 accessibility between Main Street and Brady Street than to continue the plan for the
 partial closures at both ends of 7th street. Because of this, the college is removing the
 proposed closure of 7th street from the campus master plan.

 paving, proposed circulation, and number of parking spaces.
 The existing parking areas can be seen on sheet C-7 - Existing Campus
 Parking Data. This sheet shows the circulation of the lots, and the stalls in
 each lot are listed in various tables on the right side of the sheet. The
 proposed parking areas can be seen on sheet C-8- Proposed Campus
 Parking Data. This sheet shows the circulation of the lots, and the stalls in
 each lot are listed in various tables on the right side of the sheet. The total
 paved area of the parking lots can be seen on sheet C-14 - Data Sheet.



j. Location of existing and proposed loading docks, receiving areas, trash pick-up
 areas, and other areas requiring screening.
 Existing loading docks, receiving areas, and trash pick-up areas can be
 seen on sheets C-2 - Existing Conditions - North, and C-3 - Existing
 Conditions - South. Proposed loading docks, receiving areas, and trash
 pick-up areas can be seen on sheets C-9 – IC Areas and Soils.
k. The location of existing and proposed landscaping and buffering to be developed
 in the project. Massing and density of plant and other screening materials must
 be indicated.
 Existing Landscape screening areas can be seen on sheets C-1 - Overall
 Existing Conditions, C-2 - Existing Conditions - North, and C-3 - Existing
 Conditions - South. Proposed landscaping and buffering can be seen on
 sheets C-4 - Overall Land Use Plan, C-5 - Land Use Plan - North, and
 C-6 - Land Use Plan - South.



l. Location and configuration of all existing and proposed access points within
 public streets and a pedestrian / bicycle circulation plan.
 All existing access points to campus can be seen on sheets C-1 - Overall
 Existing Conditions, C-2 - Existing Conditions - North, and C-3 - Existing
 Conditions - South. All proposed access points can be seen on sheets C-
 4 - Overall Land Use Plan, C-5 - Land Use Plan - North, and C-6 - Land
 Use Plan - South. Proposed road closures can be seen on the sheets
 showing the final campus layout. To help enhance the pedestrian and
 bicycle circulation through the center of Campus, the proposed plan
 includes the conversion of the east half of Palmer Drive to an enhanced
 pedestrian corridor. This pedestrian corridor will be designed in a way to
 maintain emergency service access through the existing Palmer Drive
 R.O.W. In addition to this, Palmer is proposing three traffic calming bump
 outs along Perry Street between 9th street and 12th street. These bump
 outs will allow for safter Pedestrian circulation between the center of
 campus where the Palmer Forum will be located and the east end of
 campus where the VanDuyne student housing and turf recreation field is
 located.



m. Storm water management plan.
 Currently there is very limited public storm sewer in any area of the
 Palmer Campus. As part of the construction of the VanDuyne Student
 housing building, a 15” diameter storm outlet was extended from the
 intersection of Iowa Street and 10th Street to the intersection of 11th Street
 and Perry. For the proposed projects on campus, Palmer will treat and
 detain site stormwater in areas of improvement to meet the requirements
 of the City of Davenport Stormwater Ordinance. After meeting the
 requirements, the stormwater will be outlet to the previously installed 15”
 diameter sewer which will then drain to the city system. The existing
 extension of the storm sewer can be seen on sheet C-10 - Site Utilities -
 North.
 n. The location of all existing and proposed freestanding signs, including circulation
 signs.
 All existing and proposed signs on campus can be seen on sheets -4 -
 Overall Land Use Plan, C-5 - Land Use Plan - North, and C-6 - Land Use
 Plan - South.

4.) Traffic Impact Study
 Because of the nature of the Palmer Campus, with a large arterial roadway
 bisecting the property, a traffic impact study has not been required for previously
 submitted Campus plans. The understanding being that because there is already
 such a high-volume roadway through the center of campus, the relatively minor
 demand generated by the proposed changes to the Campus Master Plan will not
 have a significant impact on the level of service of the existing roadways. There
 are times where large events are hosted on campus where one lane of Brady
 Street is blocked off to allow drop-off stacking to occur along the east side of the
 street. At times when this is necessary, closure of the lane is coordinated with the
 City and the DOT to ensure that all the proper permitting is completed prior to the
 events. Because the changes to the campus master plan are intended to
 enhance parking capacity and consolidate the space used for similar large
 events, at this time no traffic impact study has been completed for the Palmer
 College IC.




5.) A narrative of intent and compatibility with surrounding areas. A narrative must
 be provided that describes the relationship between the institution and the
 surrounding area. The narrative at a minimum must include the following:

 a. Description of overall architectural and / or urban design theme.
 Palmer College of Chiropractic has evolved to meet the needs of its
 students and faculty as it has grown over the past 100 years; however,
 the architectural theme has remained constant. Buildings and houses of
 brick and stone dominate the campus, with more metal and glass
 introduced into recent projects. All have an urban “academic” design
 style with 2 to 4 floors of space. The campus plan and interaction with
 the neighborhood has also evolved aligning the core of academic spaces
 with Brady Street and residential buildings/parking at the perimeter. The
 proposed Master Plan strengthens the campus edge through expanded
 greenspace and landscaping at perimeter streets, buildings, and parking
 lots, while enhancing the core academic spaces adjacent to Brady Street.
b. Total number of existing and proposed users and employees of the facility.
 Palmer’s current enrollment on at their Davenport Campus is
 approximately 1,000 students supported by 250 faculty and staff.
 Approximately 270 students currently live on campus. The proposed 10-
 year plan allows for an accommodation of up to 1,500 students with 400
 living on campus.



c. Description of existing and proposed conditions of development along the outer
 boundaries of the district and its relationship with the surrounding area.
 Standards must be established to permit a compatible transition from the
 institutional use to the surrounding area. Standards include, but are not limited to
 building height and form, exterior lighting, landscaping, etc.
 The Master Plan goals are to “create sensitive and mutually beneficial
 transitions between campus and the adjacent properties.” The proposed
 Campus Master Plan created by RDG Planning & Design is proposed to
 create connection and comfort establishing a campus presence with the
 surrounding area. New buildings are predominantly located in the center of
 campus and adding enhanced lighting, fencing, and landscaping will boost
 this design concept.



d. Description of existing and proposed methods of communication between the
 institution and the community, including a method for resolution of community
 concerns.
 Palmer College has been actively involved with Hilltop Campus Village since
 its inception, as well as in communication with Davenport Community
 Schools and adjacent businesses regarding any campus activities and
 improvements that impact the surrounding neighborhood. Although there are
 no known active residential groups, Palmer proposes to open a line of
 communication with the neighbors similar to their relationships with
 surrounding businesses. Palmer will schedule annual meetings with the
 neighborhood stakeholders and residents to present and discuss campus
 planning and schedule, as well as neighbor concerns.



e. Description of any existing and proposed impacts of development and the
 surrounding area and how these impacts should be mitigated. This description
 shall include property outside the boundaries of the district and their interaction
 with the surrounding area. Impacts include, but are not limited to lighting, noise,
 parking, etc.
 The developments proposed in Palmer’s Master Plan are primarily defining
 and softening their campus edge through expanding green space and
 landscaping. Proposed buildings will be designed to respect and
 complement the existing architectural theme on campus.
f. Description of existing and proposed relationship of institutional transportation
 system (auto, bus, bicycle, pedestrian) to the external street network. A
 description of specific programs to reduce traffic impacts, and to encourage the
 use of public transit, carpooling, bicycling, and walking.
 The urban nature of this campus is reinforced by student living. 25% of
 Palmer’s students live on campus and another 20% to 30% live in rented
 neighborhood and downtown houses and apartments. With the addition of
 the VanDuyne Student Housing Addition a large percent of the student
 population walk to campus. Other students and faculty are encouraged to use
 public transportation and/or car-pooling for other daily trips to campus. The
 proximity of Brady Street provides more opportunity for bus access in relation
 to campus buildings.

Addendum 6 - Parking Summary:

Existing Parking Conditions:


The existing number of parking spaces on Campus was determined using a combination of site visits and
reviewing aerial photos of the areas in the campus boundary. Per the City of Davenport Zoning Ordinance
17.10.050(B) – 3 – b, the on-street parking capacity was calculated using measurements of aerial photos
and dividing the available curb space by 22 feet per stall. Areas that had posted “no parking” signs were
excluded from this calculation to ensure that the existing parking stall count was as accurate as possible.


In addition to the calculated number of stalls, Palmer Security Staff completed a survey of the campus
parking areas on September 8th, 2025, to collect information about the use demand at the parking areas.
These surveys were completed roughly around 10 am and 2 pm to try to capture the peak demand at the
parking lots. The tables on the right side of sheet C-7 Existing Campus Parking Data show the total
number of stalls in each lot, the number of stalls being utilized during the AM count, and the number of
stalls utilized during the PM count. Because Palmer has year-round classes, and students are on campus
consistently, these counts can be considered representative of the regular demand in these lots.


In total, it was calculated that between the on-street and off- street parking there are 1,436 stalls
available for use within the Palmer Campus Boundary. During the AM counts, Palmer security observed
591 stalls being utilized in the off-street parking areas, and 241 on-street parking stalls in use. This
combined to a total demand of 832 parking stalls. During the PM rounds, Palmer security counted 578
off-street parking stalls in use, and 232 on-street parking stalls being used. Combining these counts,
total demand in the afternoon was 810 stalls. Utilizing the total demand for the AM & PM parking
observations, on average there are approximately 615 extra parking spaces available within the campus
footprint during peak demand hours. Consistent with observed use from previous IC parking studies, the
area of greatest demand on campus is in the north-east quadrant.
Proposed Parking Conditions:


Based on the observed demand from the campus parking counts, the future parking lots included in the
IC are strategically located in the north-east quadrant of campus. Overall, the updated campus plan
removes parking lots A and B for the proposed event center, reconstructs parking lots C, H, and F to
increase capacity, and combines parking lots G, K, and R into one large parking area. A summary of the
overall change of the parking count in the north-east quadrant of the campus can be seen in the following
table:

 Removed Parking Areas
 Lot Stalls
 A 36
 B 87
 C 43
 E 8
 F 60 Added Parking Areas
 G 78 Lot Stalls
 H 25 C 70
 K 61 F 155
 R 64 H 42
 P36 9 R 346

 Total Removed = 471 Total Added = 613



The proposed campus plan adds 142 stalls in the north-east area of campus. These parking lots will
predominately serve the areas that are currently being served by the removed parking lots. Besides the
new lots in the north-east, an additional 70 stalls are proposed in the new parking lot E for the future
student housing buildings. In total, all the projects included in the latest IC will bring the total available
parking on campus to 1,630 stalls. As with the previous IC, Palmer proposes to continue to monitor
changes in demand after the completion of the additional parking lot constriction. If needed, Palmer can
implement a demand management plan to reallocate commuter traffic to underutilized lots on campus.
City Parking Requirements:


To determine how many parking stalls are required per section 17.10.040 of the city zoning ordinance,
areas of the buildings on campus were broken out based on uses defined in table 17.10-2: Off-Street
Vehicle Parking Requirements. A summary of the areas is shown in the following table.

 Use Square Footage Parking Requirement Required Spaces
 Dwelling - Multi-Family: Units - 204 1.5 per dwelling unit 306
 Education Facility – University: 2 per classroom + 2 per office
 Classrooms – 60 / Offices – 209 + 1 per 4 students of maximum 788
 Maximum Enrollment – 1000 Students enrollment
 Reception: 43,230 square feet GFA 1 per 300 square feet GFA 114
 Indoor Recreation: 43,760 square feet GFA 1 per 500 square feet GFA 88
 Outdoor Recreation: 64,000 square feet GFA 1 per 1000 square feet GFA 64
 Office: 43,230 square feet GFA 1 per 500 square feet GFA 86
 Total Parking Required 1,446


The buildings included in this summary are mainly focused on those that use the parking spots available
in the north-east area of campus, and not all the buildings within the campus footprint were considered.


With the addition of the proposed event center, required parking counts for the considered area will
increase by the amounts shown in the following table.

 Use Square Footage Parking Requirement Required Spaces
 Auditorium: Capacity - 1300 1 per 5 persons 260
 Gathering / Event Space: 18,460 square feet GFA 1 per 300 square feet GFA 62
 Offices: 1,320 square feet GFA 1 per 500 square feet GFA 3
 Total Parking Required 325


The construction of the event center includes the removal of the existing North Hall, which leads to a
total required parking count of 1,763 stalls.


Under section 17.10.050(D) of the city zoning ordinance, required parking counts can be reduced on sites
using the shared parking calculations in table 17.10-3. The calculated shared parking requirement for the
noted campus areas can be seen in the following table.

 Weekday Weekend
 Land Use Category Mid. – 7:00 am – 6:00 pm – Mid. – 7:00 am – 6:00 pm –
 7:00am 6:00 pm Mid. 7:00 am 6:00 pm Mid.
 Residential 306 306 306 306 306 230
 Restaurant - - - - - -
 Hotel / Motel - - - - - -
 Indoor / Outdoor Recreation 0 93 132 7 93 132
 Office / Industrial 5 86 5 0 35 9
 Institutional – Education Facility 0 788 394 0 0 0
 Institutional – Place of Worship - - - - - -
 Totals 311 1,273 837 313 434 371
Based on this calculation, the total required count for the buildings in the area under consideration is
reduced from 1,446 stalls to 1,273 stalls. Though this number is closer to the apparent observed
demand, it is still higher than what we believe will be necessary to service the campus. This is mainly
due to the fact that the event center’s highest demand for parking will occur during large events on
campus such as graduation ceremonies. When these events are being held, other activities on campus
that drive demand, such as classes and clinics, will not be happening. Removing the required stall
counts for the offices and educational facilities that will not be in use during large events further reduces
the total count by 531 stalls. In conjunction with the total number from the shared parking calculation, the
reduced required parking amount to service the buildings in the north-east area of campus is 742 stalls.
This number is much closer to what we believe is the actual demand for the proposed campus facilities
and is able to be serviced between the existing and proposed projects.



Parking Ratios:


The parking ratios were calculated by dividing the total number of parking spaces on campus by the total
square footage of the buildings and structures on campus and multiplying the result by 1000. This final
calculated number gives an indication of how many parking stalls are available per 1000 square feet of
building within the campus footprint.

 1436 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑠
Existing Parking Ratio - 𝑃𝑅𝐸 = × 1000 = 4.50 stalls/1000 ft2
 319,295 𝑓𝑡 2


 1630 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑠
Proposed Parking Ratio - 𝑃𝑅𝑃 = × 1000 = 4.54 stalls/1000 ft2
 359,370 𝑓𝑡 2



As these numbers show, when comparing existing campus conditions to proposed campus conditions,
there is essentially no change in the overall number of stalls available per 1000 square feet of building
space. This consistent parking ratio aligns with the design team’s expectation that the proposed
improvements will not reduce the overall parking conditions on Campus.

 Palmer Community Organization Communication Timeline
 In alignment with the Institutional Campus – Major Amendment Requirements laid
out in the City of Davenport zoning ordinance, Palmer College sent a letter to the identified
community organizations near their campus 60 days prior to their intent to submit the
Formal IC amendment application. The community organizations that were contacted,
and the contacts that were used include:

Vera French -

Tapestry Farms -

TMBC at the Lincoln Center -

7th Judicial District -

Halligan Coffee Lofts -

Livery Lots & Hibernian Hall -

St. Anthony Catholic Church -

Hilltop Campus Village -

 The first letter to community organizations was sent on August 22nd, 2025 by email.
As the campus design was further developed, it was determined that additional time was
needed to analyze options for the campus, so an additional letter was sent to the
community organizations on October 22nd, 2025. This letter outlined that the IC
amendment would be submitted to the city of Davenport on December 11th, 2025, which is
when the documents were sent to city staff.

 Prior to the submittal of the IC documents, Palmer hosted an open house for the
community organizations on campus on December 9th, 2025 to present the updated
campus plan and field any questions. Of the invited organizations, Biran Kramer with the
Hilltop Campus Village and City of Davenport staff were the only attendees. At that time,
support of the plan was indicated, but no questions were posed of the college.



All letters that were sent to community organizations are attached to this outline. The
same presentation that was given at the initial open house will be used at the community
meeting being hosted on Campus.
August 22, 2025

To Our Neighbors,

We hope this letter finds you well. We are writing to inform you that Palmer College of Chiropractic will be
participating in the city of Davenport’s Institutional Campus (IC) amendment process. This process is part
of the city’s planning and zoning procedures for institutions operating in campus-style settings, such as
schools, religious institutions or community-service organizations.

Our participation in this process reflects our commitment to responsible planning and long-term service to
our students and the Davenport community. As part of this effort, we will propose updates and
improvements to our campus that align with our mission and the City's goals for institutional development.
A draft of the updated campus plan can be seen below. These changes are only initial and may be modified
before the amendment is submitted to the city. This letter is an early step in the larger IC-amendment
process, and no immediate changes are being implemented at this time. The College plans to submit its
formal application to the City on Oct. 23, 2025.

The city’s review process includes multiple opportunities for public input, and we welcome your thoughts or
questions should you wish to be involved. Prior to the Oct. 23 submittal date, Palmer will host an open
house on campus to review the changes to the campus plan and address any initial questions. We will
send another letter specifying the date of the open house once space on the campus has been reserved for
the event. If you would like additional information or have questions about our plans before the open house,
please feel free to contact us at 563-884-5294 or james.oconnor@palmer.edu. All communication will be
recorded and relayed to the city as part of the IC process.

Thank you for your attention and for being part of our neighborhood. We value your support and look
forward to continuing to serve the community together.

Warm regards,

James O’Connor
Vice Chancellor for Marketing
& Communication
Palmer College of Chiropractic
October 22, 2025

To Our Neighbors,

We hope this message finds you well.

We’re writing to provide an update regarding Palmer College of Chiropractic’s participation in the City of
Davenport’s Institutional Campus (IC) amendment process. As noted in our Aug. 22 letter, this process is
part of the City’s planning and zoning review for institutions such as schools, religious organizations, and
community service entities that operate within a campus setting.

Since our initial communication, the College has continued refining its proposed updates to the campus
plan to ensure alignment with both our long-term goals and the City’s planning objectives. As we
progressed through these updates, it was determined that additional time was needed to ensure that the
submitted plan delivered the best campus layout to all interested parties. To allow additional time for this
review and coordination, the College will be delaying the submittal of its IC amendment application to
the City of Davenport until Dec. 11, 2025.

We appreciate your understanding and continued interest in this process. The College remains committed
to transparency and community engagement as we move forward. An open house will still be held on
campus prior to the new submittal date, providing an opportunity for our neighbors to review the proposed
plan and share feedback. We will send a follow-up notice once the date and location for that open house
have been confirmed.

If you have any questions or would like additional information in the meantime, please contact us at 563-
884-5294 or james.oconnor@palmer.edu. As before, all communications will be recorded and shared with
the City as part of the IC amendment process.

Thank you again for your ongoing partnership and support as we continue to plan responsibly for the future
of our campus and community.

Sincerely,

James O’Connor
Vice Chancellor for Marketing & Communication
Palmer College of Chiropractic
December 3, 2025

To Our Neighborhood Partners,

I’m writing to follow up on our previous message of October 22, 2025, about Palmer College’s
involvement in Davenport’s Institutional Campus (IC) amendment process. We are reaching out
to provide an update and invite you to continue our dialogue. The College has been carefully
refining proposed changes to our campus plan to ensure they support both our long-term vision
and the City’s goals. As mentioned earlier, our IC amendment application is scheduled to be
submitted to the city on December 11, 2025.

In keeping with our commitment to transparency and collaboration, we would like to invite
representatives from neighborhood organizations to an on-campus meeting to review the
revised plan, ask questions, and share feedback. This meeting will serve as the open house
referenced in our earlier letter.

Neighborhood Meeting
Date: Tuesday, December 9, 2025
Time: 4 p.m.
Location: Palmer College of Chiropractic, 1000 Brady Street, Davenport, Iowa 52803. The
meeting will be held in the Welcome Center Conference Room of the Bechtel Center
immediately south of the Visitor’s Parking Lot.

Palmer leadership and project consultants will present the changes and answer any questions.
All communication will be documented and shared with the city as required.

Your input helps us create a campus plan that benefits both Palmer College and the community.
For questions or further details, contact us at 563-884-5726 or jillian.mccleary@palmer.edu.
Thank you for your ongoing support.

Davenport Planning & Zoning Commission
226 West 4th Street
Davenport, Iowa 52801

Dear Sir or Madam:

I represent Jana Saad Investments LLC, which owns the property at 1129 Brady St, Davenport,
Iowa. The premises is operated as a furniture store, which does business as Brady Furniture. As a
neighboring property owner, my client has an interest in the applications filed by Palmer College
of Chiropractic (“Palmer”) as Case Nos. ORD26-01, REZ26-01, ROW26-01, and ROW26-02,
which are scheduled to be considered by this Commission at its meeting on February 3, 2026.

My client objects to Palmer’s application to vacate Palmer Drive and a portion of the adjoining
alleyway. This specifically pertains to Case Nos. ORD26-01 and ROW26-01.

My client currently has one to two furniture deliveries per week to its furniture store. These
deliveries are either made in 26-foot delivery trucks or in 53-foot semi-trailers. When the deliveries
are made in 26-foot delivery trucks, the trucks routinely drive onto Palmer Drive, then drive north
onto the alley behind my client’s store in order to make their deliveries. When the delivery is
completed, the trucks proceed north onto E. 12th St.

Palmer’s application to vacate Palmer Drive and a portion of the adjoining alleyway significantly
frustrates my client’s business. It is quite clear that the vacation of Palmer Drive and proposed
roundabout would prevent delivery trucks from using the alleyway in the same manner that they
do now. If these changes are made, my client will have to require the delivery trucks to back up
on Brady Street in order to park next to Brady Furniture’s building. This is what the 53-foot semi-
trailers currently do because they are too large for the alleyway.
An increase in the number of trucks backing up on Brady Street is not in the public interest. The
semi-trailers that currently have to back up on Brady Street already block multiple lanes of Brady
Street. In doing so, they encounter annoyed drivers, and there have been incidents of drivers
attempting to go around the trucks in a dangerous manner. Also, backing a truck up on the street
is less safe for pedestrians, including Brady Furniture’s customers, compared to driving a truck
straight through the alley. If the 26-foot delivery trucks are required to back up on Brady Street
similar to the 53-foot semi-trailers, these problems will increase.

The only parking for Brady Furniture’s customers is next to the store, and these customers often
use the alleyway behind the store to come and go. Additionally, Gio’s Barber Shop, which is
located next to Brady Furntire, has its customers park in the back of its shop, off the alleyway. The
loss of Palmer Drive and part of the alleyway to access these businesses will frustrate these
customers and harm the businesses.

For these reasons, Palmer Drive and the adjoining alleyway are still being used by the public and
should not be vacated. Palmer’s application to vacate these rights-of-way fails to “minimize[e] the
adverse impacts associated with development and geographic expansion,” and it further fails to
“protect[] the livability and vitality of adjacent areas.” See Davenport Municipal Code § 17.07.030.
Lastly, the increase in trucks backing up on Brady Street would increase danger for pedestrians
and drivers.

My client respectfully requests that this Commission deny Palmer’s application to vacate these
rights-of-way.

 Very truly yours,

 BROOKS LAW FIRM, P.C.

Subject:
Third Consideration: Ordinance for Case REZ26-01 being the request of Palmer College of
Chiropractic to rezone 208 East 11th Street, 1111 Perry Street, 725 Perry Street, 727 Perry
Street, 739 Perry Street, and 822 Pershing Avenue from R-MF Multi-Family Residential District
and R-4C Single-Family and Two-Family Central Residential District to IC Institutional Campus
District. [Ward 3]

Recommendation:
Consider the Ordinance.

Background:
This request proposes rezoning the properties at 208 East 11th Street, 1111 Perry Street, 725
Perry Street, 727 Perry Street, 739 Perry Street, and 822 Pershing Avenue from R-MF Multi-
Family Residential District and R-4C Single-Family and Two-Family Central Residential District to
IC Institutional Campus District. As shown in the Campus Master Plan, these parcels function as
part of the institutional campus and serve as student housing. The rezoning aligns zoning
regulations with the amended Campus Land Use Plan boundary and supports coordinated
campus development.

Why is a Zoning Map Amendment Required?

A Zoning Map Amendment is necessary to ensure consistency between the City’s zoning
regulations, the adopted Campus Master Plan, and the long-term institutional use of the subject
properties. Since approval of the Campus Master Plan in 2021, Palmer College has acquired six
properties directly adjacent to the existing campus that remain zoned under designations
intended for non-institutional uses.

Rezoning these parcels to the IC Institutional Campus District will formally incorporate them
into the Campus Land Use Plan boundary and apply zoning standards specifically tailored to
coordinated campus development. This action supports implementation of the adopted Master
Plan, promotes unified site planning and circulation, and ensures future development is
regulated under a district that reflects the properties’ functional relationship to the campus. The
amendment also advances Comprehensive Plan goals related to institutional stability,
reinvestment, and orderly land use transitions by aligning zoning with the established and
planned use of the area.

Plan & Zoning Commission Recommendation

At its February 17, 2026, meeting, the City Plan and Zoning Commission voted to forward Case
REZ26-01 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval subject to the listed findings.

IC Institutional Campus District
Major Amendment Description
December 26th, 2025

Reason for Major Modification to IC

 As part of Palmer College’s mission to continue to provide a world-class education to the
chiropractors of the future, we are constantly evaluating our campus to try to provide the best
facilities possible for our students, staff, and patients. During the most recent round of the
campus reviews, several areas of focus were identified for improvement in the campus footprint.
These updates include improvements to the main campus entrance off Brady Street, plans for a
new academic facility called the Palmer Forum, enhancements to parking, improved traffic flow
and wayfinding, and expanded green space and outdoor study areas. The plan also prioritizes
improved traffic safety along Perry Street and identifies potential sites for future student
housing. Together, these changes will strengthen the campus experience for students, staff,
and visitors alike.

The major amendments included in this submittal are:

1. The addition of properties to the campus footprint.
 a. Proposed changes to the campus boundary incorporate properties adjacent to the
 current boundary that have been acquired by Palmer College since the last Campus
 Master Plan was approved in 2021. Properties that are being incorporated into the IC
 footprint include:
 i. 1111 Perry Street
 ii. 208 E 11th Street
 iii. 822 Pershing Ave
 iv. 739 Perry Street (The Roslyn)
 v. 727 Perry Street
 vi. 725 Perry Street




2. The removal of the previously proposed mixed-use development east of Brady Street, North
 of Palmer Drive.
 a. The latest approved IC included a mixed-use development in the northern vicinity of
 the campus. When evaluating the plans for the development of the campus over the
 next 10 years, this property was not a priority. Palmer is removing the proposed
 development and showing the underlying properties as they currently exist in the
 future campus plan.
3. Vacation of Palmer Drive Right of Way and the revisions to the layout and use of the
 previous Palmer Drive Right of Way.
 a. One of the main focuses to come out of the review of the campus plan was the
 desire to develop a well-defined main campus entrance off Brady Street at the
 existing Palmer Drive location. The currently approved IC includes the closure of the
 east half of Palmer Drive with traffic being directed to the north to the alleyway
 between Brady Street and Perry Street. The updated campus plan proposes a
 similar layout, with some key changes. The east half of the vacated Palmer Drive
 will be changed to a pedestrian corridor, similar to the pedestrian corridor that was
 constructed on 11th Street. This pedestrian area will be designed to allow emergency
 services access through the area if necessary. The west half of Palmer Drive will be
 converted from a one-way road to a campus entrance. This entrance will allow drop-
 off near the campus center, have a roundabout to maintain access to the alleyway
 north of the road, and will have a new drive from the Palmer campus back onto
 Brady Street. This proposed layout has received preliminary approval from the Iowa
 DOT, and the drive will also be designed for emergency services access. Palmer
 would also like to use bricks that are salvaged from under the existing Palmer Drive
 Right of Way in the design of the new drive and walkway pavement sections.




4. Adding the Palmer Forum and associated outdoor plaza area.
 a. Another area of emphasis that came out of the latest campus review was the need
 for an academic space that could also act as a gathering space for large
 presentations or celebrations. Multiple areas of campus were investigated to find the
 most appropriate location for this space, and it was ultimately determined that a
 central campus location north of the Bechtel center was the best fit. This new
 building, the Palmer Forum, is intended to be flexible enough to host large and small
 classes, as well as graduation and speaker presentations. Adjacent to the proposed
 Palmer Forum, the new campus master plan includes an enhanced greenspace and
 outdoor study area. This area will be similar to other outdoor study spaces on
 campus such as the Keller Terrace, the Clinic Gardens, and the VanDuyne Hall
 courtyard.




5. Removing the previously approved closure of the west half of 9th street between Perry Street
 and Pershing Street.
 a. After evaluating traffic circulation patterns throughout the campus and discussing
 access with city emergency services personnel, it was determined that the benefits
 from the closure of this portion of 9th street would be outweighed by the impact on
 emergency access to the surrounding community. Because of this, Palmer is
 removing this proposed closure from the campus master plan.
6. Improved traffic safety features along Perry Street between 12th street and 9th Street.
 a. As part of the new campus master plan, Palmer is anticipating an increase in the
 pedestrian circulation in the center of campus. This area generally includes the 11th
 street pedestrian corridor, the VanDuyne Student housing courtyard, the proposed
 Palmer Drive pedestrian corridor, and the proposed Palmer Forum outdoor plaza.
 Though these areas are close in proximity, they are generally bisected by the Perry
 Street Right of Way. In order to encourage safe vehicular / pedestrian interactions in
 this area and to minimize the risk of any accidents occurring, Palmer is proposing
 three traffic calming bump outs along Perry Street between 12th street and 9th street.
 These bump outs would help consolidate pedestrian crossings on Perry Street while
 also slowing traffic as it passes through the center of the Palmer Campus.




7. Removing the previously approved partial closure of 8th Street between Main Street and
 Brady Street.
 a. With the addition of the proposed student housing and parking lots south of 8th street,
 the college determined that it would be more beneficial to have increased
 accessibility between Main Street and Brady Street than to continue the plan to close
 the west half of 8th Street. Because of this, the college is removing the proposed
 closure of 8th street from their campus master plan.



8. Adding sites for future student housing buildings east of Main Street.
 a. Due to the success of the VanDuyne student housing building, Palmer college
 determined that there is a sufficient desire for additional student housing within the
 campus footprint. To meet this demand, two student housing buildings as well as
 associated parking lots are being shown in the empty lot east of Main Street. These
 structures were shown in previous versions of the campus master plan but were
 removed with the latest approved IC when VanDuyne hall was added. The college
 believes that within the next 10 years there will be sufficient demand for on-campus
 housing to support the additional proposed units.



9. Removing the partial closure of 7th street between Main Street and Brady Street.
 a. With the addition of the proposed student housing and parking lots north of 7th street,
 the college determined that it would be more beneficial to have increased
 accessibility between Main Street and Brady Street than to continue the plan for the
 partial closures at both ends of 7th street. Because of this, the college is removing the
 proposed closure of 7th street from the campus master plan.

 4 - Overall Land Use Plan, C-5 - Land Use Plan - North, and C-6 - Land
 Use Plan - South. Proposed road closures can be seen on the sheets
 showing the final campus layout. To help enhance the pedestrian and
 bicycle circulation through the center of Campus, the proposed plan
 includes the conversion of the east half of Palmer Drive to an enhanced
 pedestrian corridor. This pedestrian corridor will be designed in a way to
 maintain emergency service access through the existing Palmer Drive
 R.O.W. In addition to this, Palmer is proposing three traffic calming bump
 outs along Perry Street between 9th street and 12th street. These bump
 outs will allow for safter Pedestrian circulation between the center of
 campus where the Palmer Forum will be located and the east end of
 campus where the VanDuyne student housing and turf recreation field is
 located.



m. Storm water management plan.
 Currently there is very limited public storm sewer in any area of the
 Palmer Campus. As part of the construction of the VanDuyne Student
 housing building, a 15” diameter storm outlet was extended from the
 intersection of Iowa Street and 10th Street to the intersection of 11th Street
 and Perry. For the proposed projects on campus, Palmer will treat and
 detain site stormwater in areas of improvement to meet the requirements
 of the City of Davenport Stormwater Ordinance. After meeting the
 requirements, the stormwater will be outlet to the previously installed 15”
 diameter sewer which will then drain to the city system. The existing
 extension of the storm sewer can be seen on sheet C-10 - Site Utilities -
 North.
 n. The location of all existing and proposed freestanding signs, including circulation
 signs.
 All existing and proposed signs on campus can be seen on sheets -4 -
 Overall Land Use Plan, C-5 - Land Use Plan - North, and C-6 - Land Use
 Plan - South.

4.) Traffic Impact Study
 Because of the nature of the Palmer Campus, with a large arterial roadway
 bisecting the property, a traffic impact study has not been required for previously
 submitted Campus plans. The understanding being that because there is already
 such a high-volume roadway through the center of campus, the relatively minor
 demand generated by the proposed changes to the Campus Master Plan will not
 have a significant impact on the level of service of the existing roadways. There
 are times where large events are hosted on campus where one lane of Brady
 Street is blocked off to allow drop-off stacking to occur along the east side of the
 street. At times when this is necessary, closure of the lane is coordinated with the
 City and the DOT to ensure that all the proper permitting is completed prior to the
 events. Because the changes to the campus master plan are intended to
 enhance parking capacity and consolidate the space used for similar large
 events, at this time no traffic impact study has been completed for the Palmer
 College IC.




5.) A narrative of intent and compatibility with surrounding areas. A narrative must
 be provided that describes the relationship between the institution and the
 surrounding area. The narrative at a minimum must include the following:

 a. Description of overall architectural and / or urban design theme.
 Palmer College of Chiropractic has evolved to meet the needs of its
 students and faculty as it has grown over the past 100 years; however,
 the architectural theme has remained constant. Buildings and houses of
 brick and stone dominate the campus, with more metal and glass
 introduced into recent projects. All have an urban “academic” design
 style with 2 to 4 floors of space. The campus plan and interaction with
 the neighborhood has also evolved aligning the core of academic spaces
 with Brady Street and residential buildings/parking at the perimeter. The
 proposed Master Plan strengthens the campus edge through expanded
 greenspace and landscaping at perimeter streets, buildings, and parking
 lots, while enhancing the core academic spaces adjacent to Brady Street.
b. Total number of existing and proposed users and employees of the facility.
 Palmer’s current enrollment on at their Davenport Campus is
 approximately 1,000 students supported by 250 faculty and staff.
 Approximately 270 students currently live on campus. The proposed 10-
 year plan allows for an accommodation of up to 1,500 students with 400
 living on campus.



c. Description of existing and proposed conditions of development along the outer
 boundaries of the district and its relationship with the surrounding area.
 Standards must be established to permit a compatible transition from the
 institutional use to the surrounding area. Standards include, but are not limited to
 building height and form, exterior lighting, landscaping, etc.
 The Master Plan goals are to “create sensitive and mutually beneficial
 transitions between campus and the adjacent properties.” The proposed
 Campus Master Plan created by RDG Planning & Design is proposed to
 create connection and comfort establishing a campus presence with the
 surrounding area. New buildings are predominantly located in the center of
 campus and adding enhanced lighting, fencing, and landscaping will boost
 this design concept.



d. Description of existing and proposed methods of communication between the
 institution and the community, including a method for resolution of community
 concerns.
 Palmer College has been actively involved with Hilltop Campus Village since
 its inception, as well as in communication with Davenport Community
 Schools and adjacent businesses regarding any campus activities and
 improvements that impact the surrounding neighborhood. Although there are
 no known active residential groups, Palmer proposes to open a line of
 communication with the neighbors similar to their relationships with
 surrounding businesses. Palmer will schedule annual meetings with the
 neighborhood stakeholders and residents to present and discuss campus
 planning and schedule, as well as neighbor concerns.



e. Description of any existing and proposed impacts of development and the
 surrounding area and how these impacts should be mitigated. This description
 shall include property outside the boundaries of the district and their interaction
 with the surrounding area. Impacts include, but are not limited to lighting, noise,
 parking, etc.
 The developments proposed in Palmer’s Master Plan are primarily defining
 and softening their campus edge through expanding green space and
 landscaping. Proposed buildings will be designed to respect and
 complement the existing architectural theme on campus.
f. Description of existing and proposed relationship of institutional transportation
 system (auto, bus, bicycle, pedestrian) to the external street network. A
 description of specific programs to reduce traffic impacts, and to encourage the
 use of public transit, carpooling, bicycling, and walking.
 The urban nature of this campus is reinforced by student living. 25% of
 Palmer’s students live on campus and another 20% to 30% live in rented
 neighborhood and downtown houses and apartments. With the addition of
 the VanDuyne Student Housing Addition a large percent of the student
 population walk to campus. Other students and faculty are encouraged to use
 public transportation and/or car-pooling for other daily trips to campus. The
 proximity of Brady Street provides more opportunity for bus access in relation
 to campus buildings.

Addendum 6 - Parking Summary:

Existing Parking Conditions:


The existing number of parking spaces on Campus was determined using a combination of site visits and
reviewing aerial photos of the areas in the campus boundary. Per the City of Davenport Zoning Ordinance
17.10.050(B) – 3 – b, the on-street parking capacity was calculated using measurements of aerial photos
and dividing the available curb space by 22 feet per stall. Areas that had posted “no parking” signs were
excluded from this calculation to ensure that the existing parking stall count was as accurate as possible.


In addition to the calculated number of stalls, Palmer Security Staff completed a survey of the campus
parking areas on September 8th, 2025, to collect information about the use demand at the parking areas.
These surveys were completed roughly around 10 am and 2 pm to try to capture the peak demand at the
parking lots. The tables on the right side of sheet C-7 Existing Campus Parking Data show the total
number of stalls in each lot, the number of stalls being utilized during the AM count, and the number of
stalls utilized during the PM count. Because Palmer has year-round classes, and students are on campus
consistently, these counts can be considered representative of the regular demand in these lots.


In total, it was calculated that between the on-street and off- street parking there are 1,436 stalls
available for use within the Palmer Campus Boundary. During the AM counts, Palmer security observed
591 stalls being utilized in the off-street parking areas, and 241 on-street parking stalls in use. This
combined to a total demand of 832 parking stalls. During the PM rounds, Palmer security counted 578
off-street parking stalls in use, and 232 on-street parking stalls being used. Combining these counts,
total demand in the afternoon was 810 stalls. Utilizing the total demand for the AM & PM parking
observations, on average there are approximately 615 extra parking spaces available within the campus
footprint during peak demand hours. Consistent with observed use from previous IC parking studies, the
area of greatest demand on campus is in the north-east quadrant.
Proposed Parking Conditions:


Based on the observed demand from the campus parking counts, the future parking lots included in the
IC are strategically located in the north-east quadrant of campus. Overall, the updated campus plan
removes parking lots A and B for the proposed event center, reconstructs parking lots C, H, and F to
increase capacity, and combines parking lots G, K, and R into one large parking area. A summary of the
overall change of the parking count in the north-east quadrant of the campus can be seen in the following
table:

 Removed Parking Areas
 Lot Stalls
 A 36
 B 87
 C 43
 E 8
 F 60 Added Parking Areas
 G 78 Lot Stalls
 H 25 C 70
 K 61 F 155
 R 64 H 42
 P36 9 R 346

 Total Removed = 471 Total Added = 613



The proposed campus plan adds 142 stalls in the north-east area of campus. These parking lots will
predominately serve the areas that are currently being served by the removed parking lots. Besides the
new lots in the north-east, an additional 70 stalls are proposed in the new parking lot E for the future
student housing buildings. In total, all the projects included in the latest IC will bring the total available
parking on campus to 1,630 stalls. As with the previous IC, Palmer proposes to continue to monitor
changes in demand after the completion of the additional parking lot constriction. If needed, Palmer can
implement a demand management plan to reallocate commuter traffic to underutilized lots on campus.
City Parking Requirements:


To determine how many parking stalls are required per section 17.10.040 of the city zoning ordinance,
areas of the buildings on campus were broken out based on uses defined in table 17.10-2: Off-Street
Vehicle Parking Requirements. A summary of the areas is shown in the following table.

 Use Square Footage Parking Requirement Required Spaces
 Dwelling - Multi-Family: Units - 204 1.5 per dwelling unit 306
 Education Facility – University: 2 per classroom + 2 per office
 Classrooms – 60 / Offices – 209 + 1 per 4 students of maximum 788
 Maximum Enrollment – 1000 Students enrollment
 Reception: 43,230 square feet GFA 1 per 300 square feet GFA 114
 Indoor Recreation: 43,760 square feet GFA 1 per 500 square feet GFA 88
 Outdoor Recreation: 64,000 square feet GFA 1 per 1000 square feet GFA 64
 Office: 43,230 square feet GFA 1 per 500 square feet GFA 86
 Total Parking Required 1,446


The buildings included in this summary are mainly focused on those that use the parking spots available
in the north-east area of campus, and not all the buildings within the campus footprint were considered.


With the addition of the proposed event center, required parking counts for the considered area will
increase by the amounts shown in the following table.

 Use Square Footage Parking Requirement Required Spaces
 Auditorium: Capacity - 1300 1 per 5 persons 260
 Gathering / Event Space: 18,460 square feet GFA 1 per 300 square feet GFA 62
 Offices: 1,320 square feet GFA 1 per 500 square feet GFA 3
 Total Parking Required 325


The construction of the event center includes the removal of the existing North Hall, which leads to a
total required parking count of 1,763 stalls.


Under section 17.10.050(D) of the city zoning ordinance, required parking counts can be reduced on sites
using the shared parking calculations in table 17.10-3. The calculated shared parking requirement for the
noted campus areas can be seen in the following table.

 Weekday Weekend
 Land Use Category Mid. – 7:00 am – 6:00 pm – Mid. – 7:00 am – 6:00 pm –
 7:00am 6:00 pm Mid. 7:00 am 6:00 pm Mid.
 Residential 306 306 306 306 306 230
 Restaurant - - - - - -
 Hotel / Motel - - - - - -
 Indoor / Outdoor Recreation 0 93 132 7 93 132
 Office / Industrial 5 86 5 0 35 9
 Institutional – Education Facility 0 788 394 0 0 0
 Institutional – Place of Worship - - - - - -
 Totals 311 1,273 837 313 434 371
Based on this calculation, the total required count for the buildings in the area under consideration is
reduced from 1,446 stalls to 1,273 stalls. Though this number is closer to the apparent observed
demand, it is still higher than what we believe will be necessary to service the campus. This is mainly
due to the fact that the event center’s highest demand for parking will occur during large events on
campus such as graduation ceremonies. When these events are being held, other activities on campus
that drive demand, such as classes and clinics, will not be happening. Removing the required stall
counts for the offices and educational facilities that will not be in use during large events further reduces
the total count by 531 stalls. In conjunction with the total number from the shared parking calculation, the
reduced required parking amount to service the buildings in the north-east area of campus is 742 stalls.
This number is much closer to what we believe is the actual demand for the proposed campus facilities
and is able to be serviced between the existing and proposed projects.



Parking Ratios:


The parking ratios were calculated by dividing the total number of parking spaces on campus by the total
square footage of the buildings and structures on campus and multiplying the result by 1000. This final
calculated number gives an indication of how many parking stalls are available per 1000 square feet of
building within the campus footprint.

 1436 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑠
Existing Parking Ratio - 𝑃𝑅𝐸 = × 1000 = 4.50 stalls/1000 ft2
 319,295 𝑓𝑡 2


 1630 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑠
Proposed Parking Ratio - 𝑃𝑅𝑃 = × 1000 = 4.54 stalls/1000 ft2
 359,370 𝑓𝑡 2



As these numbers show, when comparing existing campus conditions to proposed campus conditions,
there is essentially no change in the overall number of stalls available per 1000 square feet of building
space. This consistent parking ratio aligns with the design team’s expectation that the proposed
improvements will not reduce the overall parking conditions on Campus.

Subject:
Third Consideration: Ordinance for Case ROW26-01 being the request of Palmer College of
Chiropractic to vacate Palmer Drive, between Brady Street and Perry Street, and the southern
60 feet of the 20-foot-wide alley right-of-way located in Outlot 20 of LeClaire’s 2nd Addition.
[Ward 3]

Recommendation:
Consider the Ordinance.

Background:
Palmer College of Chiropractic is requesting the vacation of Palmer Drive between Brady Street
and Perry Street, along with a portion of the mid-block alley located immediately north of
Palmer Drive. The proposed vacation would allow for the construction of a new private drive
that will function as the primary vehicular entrance to the campus.

The proposed design includes a roundabout that will direct vehicles either north to an expanded
parking area or back onto Brady Street. Vehicular access between Brady Street and Perry Street
would be limited to emergency vehicles only. The eastern portion of Palmer Drive is proposed to
be repurposed as a pedestrian pathway, providing improved connectivity between the campus
core and VanDuyne Hall.

This request is part of a broader campus beautification initiative intended to enhance visitor
circulation and campus functionality, and to provide improved access to the new academic
building, enhanced greenspace, and expanded parking facilities. The closure of Palmer Drive
was previously identified and approved as part of Palmer College’s Campus Master Plan in 2021.

Subject Right-Of-Ways

A legal description and plat has been submitted for review. The total area for the proposed
vacation is approximately 13,889 square feet (.32 acres).

 1. Palmer Drive is approximately 40 feet wide by 317 feet in length, or 12,689 square feet.
 Palmer Drive is a one-way street directing vehicles eastbound. On-street parking is only
 permitted on the north side of the roadway, which is approximately 25 feet in width
 from back-of-curb to back-of-curb.
 2. The mid-block alley right of way is approximately 20 feet wide by 60 feet in length, or
 1,200 square feet. The condition of the alley pavement is poor. There are overhead
 utility poles and wires extending through the alley, north to 12th Street.


The vacation of public right-of-way is a two-step process:

 1. Determine if the right-of-way is needed for public purposes.
 2. Negotiate and determine terms of conveyance to adjacent property owners. (No Plan
 and Zoning Commission action is required.)


Plan and Zoning Commission Recommendation

At its February 17, 2026, meeting, the City Plan and Zoning Commission voted to forward Case
ROW26-01 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval subject to the listed findings
and conditions:

Findings

 1. Palmer Drive does not conform to the City’s adopted roadway design standards and
 does not meet the required cross-sectional and construction specifications.
 2. Permanent utility easements are required to ensure continued access to and
 maintenance of existing and relocated utility infrastructure.
 3. Ingress and egress easements are necessary to preserve functional vehicular circulation
 from Brady Street to the alley from Palmer Drive, thereby maintaining site connectivity
 despite the reduction in public right-of-way.
 4. Permanent ingress and egress easements are necessary to preserve emergency
 vehicular connectivity between Brady Street and Perry Street.


Conditions

 1. Upon vacation of the subject right-of-way, the land shall continue to function in its
 current state until the conveyance process is completed.
 2. The applicant shall record permanent utility easements to ensure continued access to,
 and maintenance of, existing and relocated utility infrastructure.
 3. The applicant shall record permanent ingress/egress easements preserving vehicular
 connectivity between Brady Street and the north-south alley. The easements shall
 provide adequate width and maintain unobstructed access to serve the properties
 located along Brady Street.
 4. The applicant shall record permanent ingress/egress easements preserving vehicular
 connectivity between Brady Street and Perry Street. The easements shall be of sufficient
 width and design to provide unobstructed access capable of accommodating emergency
 response vehicles.
 5. To the greatest extent practicable, any historic or existing brick materials uncovered
 during road construction activities shall be salvaged and provided to the City.

Davenport Planning & Zoning Commission
226 West 4th Street
Davenport, Iowa 52801

Dear Sir or Madam:

I represent Jana Saad Investments LLC, which owns the property at 1129 Brady St, Davenport,
Iowa. The premises is operated as a furniture store, which does business as Brady Furniture. As a
neighboring property owner, my client has an interest in the applications filed by Palmer College
of Chiropractic (“Palmer”) as Case Nos. ORD26-01, REZ26-01, ROW26-01, and ROW26-02,
which are scheduled to be considered by this Commission at its meeting on February 3, 2026.

My client objects to Palmer’s application to vacate Palmer Drive and a portion of the adjoining
alleyway. This specifically pertains to Case Nos. ORD26-01 and ROW26-01.

My client currently has one to two furniture deliveries per week to its furniture store. These
deliveries are either made in 26-foot delivery trucks or in 53-foot semi-trailers. When the deliveries
are made in 26-foot delivery trucks, the trucks routinely drive onto Palmer Drive, then drive north
onto the alley behind my client’s store in order to make their deliveries. When the delivery is
completed, the trucks proceed north onto E. 12th St.

Palmer’s application to vacate Palmer Drive and a portion of the adjoining alleyway significantly
frustrates my client’s business. It is quite clear that the vacation of Palmer Drive and proposed
roundabout would prevent delivery trucks from using the alleyway in the same manner that they
do now. If these changes are made, my client will have to require the delivery trucks to back up
on Brady Street in order to park next to Brady Furniture’s building. This is what the 53-foot semi-
trailers currently do because they are too large for the alleyway.
An increase in the number of trucks backing up on Brady Street is not in the public interest. The
semi-trailers that currently have to back up on Brady Street already block multiple lanes of Brady
Street. In doing so, they encounter annoyed drivers, and there have been incidents of drivers
attempting to go around the trucks in a dangerous manner. Also, backing a truck up on the street
is less safe for pedestrians, including Brady Furniture’s customers, compared to driving a truck
straight through the alley. If the 26-foot delivery trucks are required to back up on Brady Street
similar to the 53-foot semi-trailers, these problems will increase.

The only parking for Brady Furniture’s customers is next to the store, and these customers often
use the alleyway behind the store to come and go. Additionally, Gio’s Barber Shop, which is
located next to Brady Furntire, has its customers park in the back of its shop, off the alleyway. The
loss of Palmer Drive and part of the alleyway to access these businesses will frustrate these
customers and harm the businesses.

For these reasons, Palmer Drive and the adjoining alleyway are still being used by the public and
should not be vacated. Palmer’s application to vacate these rights-of-way fails to “minimize[e] the
adverse impacts associated with development and geographic expansion,” and it further fails to
“protect[] the livability and vitality of adjacent areas.” See Davenport Municipal Code § 17.07.030.
Lastly, the increase in trucks backing up on Brady Street would increase danger for pedestrians
and drivers.

My client respectfully requests that this Commission deny Palmer’s application to vacate these
rights-of-way.

 Very truly yours,

 BROOKS LAW FIRM, P.C.

the Campus Master Plan, this area will be converted into additional off-street parking.
Easements would ensure the continued movement of vehicles between Perry Street and
Pershing Avenue. The vacation of this right-of-way would support the increased parking
demand generated by the new academic building and event facility.

The closure of 10th Street was previously identified and approved as part of Palmer College’s
Campus Master Plan in 2021. This request is therefore consistent with the already approved
plan and represents an implementation step rather than a new policy direction.

Subject Rights-Of-Way

A legal description and plat has been submitted for review. The total area for the proposed
vacation is approximately 15,225 square feet (.35 acres).

 1. East 10th Street is approximately 20 feet wide by 321.2 feet in length, or 6,424 square
 feet. There is no on-street parking, as the pavement width is approximately 16 feet in
 width from back-of-curb to back-of-curb. 10th Street facilitates two-way traffic.
 2. The mid-block alley right of way, located north of 10th Street, is approximately 20 feet
 wide by 238.6 feet in length, or 4,770 square feet. The alley functions as a drive aisle to
 Palmer College's parking lots. The property at 1019 Perry Street (not owned by Palmer
 College) utilizes the alley for access.
 3. The mid-block alley right-of-way, located south of 10th Street, is approximately 14.33
 feet wide by 183.8 feet in length, or 2,635 square feet. The alley connects 10th Street
 to 9th Street, but does not provide access to the adjacent parking lot on the western
 portion of the block.
 4. The angled mid-block alley right-of-way, located south of 10th Street, is approximately
 10 feet wide. The total area is approximately 1,396 square feet. The alley is currently
 unimproved and remains as a remnant of the block’s former residential development
 pattern.
The vacation of public right-of-way is a two-step process:

 1. Determine if the right-of-way is needed for public purposes.
 2. Negotiate and determine terms of conveyance to adjacent property owners. (No Plan
 and Zoning Commission action is required.)


Plan and Zoning Commission Recommendation

At its February 17, 2026, meeting, the City Plan and Zoning Commission voted to forward Case
ROW26-01 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval subject to the listed findings
and conditions:

Findings

 1. East 10th Street does not conform to the City’s adopted roadway design standards and
 does not meet the required cross-sectional and construction specifications.
 2. The existing alley rights-of-way, south of 10th Street, are remnants of a prior residential
 subdivision and no longer serve their original functional purpose.
 3. Permanent utility easements are required to ensure continued access to and
 maintenance of existing and relocated utility infrastructure.
 4. Permanent ingress and egress easements are necessary to preserve vehicular
 connectivity between Perry Street and Pershing Avenue.
 5. Ingress and egress easements are necessary to preserve functional vehicular access to
 1019 Perry Street, thereby maintaining site connectivity despite the reduction in public
 right-of-way.


Conditions

 1. Upon vacation of the subject right-of-way, the land shall continue to function in its
 current state until the conveyance process is completed.
 2. The applicant shall record permanent utility easements to ensure continued access to,
 and maintenance of, existing and relocated utility infrastructure.
 3. The applicant shall record permanent ingress/egress easements preserving vehicular
 connectivity between Perry Street and Pershing Avenue. The easements shall be of
 sufficient width and design to provide unobstructed access capable of accommodating
 emergency response vehicles.
 4. The applicant shall record permanent ingress/egress easements preserving vehicular
 connectivity to 1019 Perry Street. The easements shall provide adequate width and
 maintain unobstructed access.
 5. To the greatest extent practicable, any historic or existing brick materials uncovered
 during road construction activities shall be salvaged and provided to the City.

Subject:
First Consideration: Ordinance for Case REZ26-02 being the request of Patrick Fennelly to
rezone approximately 2.71 acres of property located south of Telegraph Road and east of South
Utah Avenue (Parcel #S3117-05) from AG Agricultural District to R -1 Single-Family Residential
District. [Ward 1]

Recommendation:
Adopt the Ordinance.

Background:
The Petitioner is requesting a rezoning from AG Agricultural District to R-1 Single-Family
Residential District. The purpose of the rezoning request is to create a new single-family lot.
The site is currently being used for farming. The land contains wooded areas and steep
topography changes along the creek, making the eastern portion of the property difficult to
navigate. The most developable area is the ground adjacent to South Utah Avenue. The
property consists of one parcel encompassing approximately 10 acres. The owner intends to
subdivide the land into one new single-family lot along South Utah Avenue. The remainder of
the property will remain undeveloped and zoned AG Agricultural District. A survey of the
property has been provided by the applicant delineating the land to be rezoned. Following the
rezoning, the applicant intends to subdivide the land to separate the R-1 and AG property.

Plan and Zoning Commission Recommendation

At its March 17, 2026, meeting, the Plan and Zoning Commission unanimously voted to forward
Case REZ26-02 to the City Council with a recommendation for approval subject to the listed
findings.

Findings

 1. The zoning map amendment is consistent with the Davenport +2035 Land Use Plan,
 which identifies the property as Agricultural Reserve.
 2. The proposed zoning map amendment to R-1 Single Family Residential District is
 compatible with the zoning of nearby developed property.
 3. The zoning map amendment will enable the vacant site to be developed in a manner
 consistent with the surrounding area.
 4. The proposed amendment will not negatively impact the public health, safety, and
 welfare of the City.
 5. Rezoning the property to R-1 Single Family Residential District does not create any
 nonconformities.


Why is a Zoning Map Amendment Required?
The Zoning Ordinance does not permit a principal use of single-family dwelling in an agricultural
district, which are under 38 acres in area. A rezoning to R-1 Single-Family Residential District is
the least intensive zoning classification and is consistent with similar land uses on South Utah
Avenue.

Comprehensive Plan

Within Existing Urban Service Area: No
Urban Service Area 2035: Yes

Future Land Use Designations: The property is designated Agricultural Reserve (AR) in the
Davenport +2035 Land Use Plan. Agricultural Reserve (AR) — Areas located outside the Urban
Service Area and unlikely to develop in the foreseeable future. Uses should be limited to
agriculture and open space, with only limited residential development needing minimal urban
services.

Zoning: The property is currently zoned AG Agricultural District. This district is intended to
address existing agricultural land uses. The standards of the AG District promote the
continuation of farming and protect agricultural land uses from the encroachment of
incompatible developments. The applicant is requesting a rezoning of the property to R-1
Single-Family Residential District. This district is intended to accommodate the lowest-density
single-family neighborhoods within the City of Davenport, exhibiting a predominantly semi-
suburban development pattern of large lots and generous yards.

Approval Standards for Map Amendments (Chapter 17.14.040)

The Plan and Zoning Commission recommendation and the City Council decision on any zoning
text or map amendment is a matter of legislative discretion that is not controlled by any
particular standard. However, in making their recommendation and decision, the Plan and
Zoning Commission and the City Council must consider the following standards. The approval of
amendments is based on a balancing of these standards.

a. The consistency of the proposed amendment with the Comprehensive Plan and
any adopted land use policies.
Staff Response: The property is designated Agricultural Reserve (AR) in the Davenport +2035
Land Use Plan. This land use category is designated for areas located outside of the Urban
Service Boundary, which are unlikely to develop in the foreseeable future. Uses should be
restricted to agriculture and open space, with only limited residential development needing
minimal urban services.

b. The compatibility with the zoning of nearby property.
Staff Response: South Utah Avenue, north of West River Drive and South of Telegraph Road,
consists of a mix of properties zoned either R-1 Single-Family Residential District or AG
Agricultural District. Rezoning 2.7 acres to residential is compatible with the existing zoning
districts along the South Utah Avenue corridor. The petitioner's remaining 7.3 acres of land will
remain under the AG zoning, thereby retaining the low density housing, farming, and open
space character of the neighborhood. It is staff’s opinion that the proposed amendment is
compatible with the zoning of nearby property.

c. The compatibility with established neighborhood character.
Staff Response: There are fifteen continuous lots along the east side of Utah Avenue, south of
the subject property, containing single-family dwellings. Rezoning the site for the establishment
of two new single-family lots is consistent with the development of the surrounding area. The
low density creates a balance between residential and agriculturally zoned property. It is staff’s
opinion that the proposed amendment is compatible with the established neighborhood
character.

d. The extent to which the proposed amendment promotes the public health, safety,
and welfare of the City.
Staff Response: Rezoning the property to R-1 Single-Family Residential District will not be
detrimental to the surrounding area, which is predominantly single-family dwellings, agriculture,
and open space. It is staff's opinion that owners of agriculturally zoned property will not be
negatively impacted if the rezoning request is approved. In addition, the R-1 District is the most
comparable zoning district to the AG Agricultural District in terms of dimensional standards and
principal uses. The use restrictions imposed on the surrounding neighborhood will remain
consistent should the property be rezoned to R-1. It is staff’s opinion that the proposed zoning
map amendment will develop in a manner that promotes the public health, safety, and welfare
of the City.

e. The suitability of the property for the purposes for which it is presently zoned, i.e.
the feasibility of developing the property in question for one or more of the uses
permitted under the existing zoning classification.
Staff Response: A residence on an agricultural site may be established if the property is a
minimum of 38 acres. Given the petitioner owns 10 acres, no single-family home may currently
be developed on the property. Based on the plat of subdivision submitted by the applicant, a
total of one home can be constructed on the proposed 2.7 acre property. It is staff's opinion
that the proposed zoning map amendment will enable the area to be developed in a manner
consistent with the surrounding neighborhood.

f. The extent to which the proposed amendment creates nonconformities.
Staff Response: The proposed single-family lot, which has necessitated the zoning map
amendment, far exceeds the minimum standards of the R-1 Residential Single-Family Zoning
District. The minimum lot area in the R-1 District is 20,000 square feet (0.46 acres) while the
proposed lot is 118,22
square feet (2.7 acres). It is staff’s opinion that the proposed zoning map amendment will not
create any nonconformities.

Public Input

Letters were sent to property owners within 200 feet of the proposed request notifying them of
the March 3, 2026, Plan and Zoning Commission Public Hearing. To date, staff has not received
any responses from adjacent property owners.

Following the Plan and Zoning Commission's recommendation of approval, letters were sent to
property owners within 200 feet of the proposed request notifying them of the April 1, 2026.

Contact Info: Laura Berkley | 563-888-3553 4/1/2026

Subject:
Resolution approving Case F26-02 being the request of MGNS LLC for a final plat of Resale
Estates, a 2-lot subdivision on 14 acres located on Lot 3 of the Jersey Farms Commercial Park
2nd Addition (Parcel Y0549A03). [Ward 6]

Recommendation:
Adopt the Resolution.

Background:
The applicant has submitted a request for subdivision of a 14-acre property currently containing
undeveloped land west of an outdoor self-storage facility. The site is bisected by a 50-foot
ingress/egress easement across the adjoining property. The subject property is part of the
original Jersey Farms Commercial Park Second Addition, which was platted in 2015. The intent
of the proposed subdivision is to create 2 lots divided by the existing access drive to the storage
facility.

Plan & Zoning Commission Recommendation

The Plan and Zoning Commission reviewed Case F26-02 at its March 17, 2026 meeting and
recommended approval subject to the listed findings and conditions:

Findings

 1. The final plat conforms to the comprehensive plan Davenport +2035.
 2. The final plat prepares the area for future development.
 3. The final plat (with conditions recommended by City Staff) will achieve consistency with
 subdivision requirements.


Conditions

 1. That the surveyor signs the plat.
 2. That the utility providers sign the plat when their easement needs have been met.
 3. Add a note to the plat stating that the land within the subdivision is not located within
 the Special Flood Hazard Area as identified on Flood Insurance Rate Map
 #19163C0360H Effective Date April 11, 2024.
 4. Add a note stating "Stormwater quality treatment is required for this subdivision and
 shall be located within this addition and shall be owned and maintained by the owner or
 business association."
 5. Add a sign easement for Elmore Storage's sign on Lot 3 or present the recorded
 agreement with the recording number.
 6. Add a note clarifying access rights to and from Resale Estates subdivision and the Jersey
 Farms Commercial Park 5th Addition.
 7. Include a note stating that no additional access to Elmore Avenue is permitted.
 8. Include a 10-foot easement to cover the existing water main to the south of the 50'
 ingress/egress easement.


Staff Report to the Plan & Zoning Commission

Comprehensive Plan:
Within Existing Urban Service Area: Yes
Within Urban Service Area 2035: Yes

Future Land Use Designation

The subject property is currently designated as Regional Commercial in the Davenport +2035
Future Land Use Map.

 1. Regional Commercial (RC) – Are the most intense commercial areas that have service
 boundaries that extend beyond the City limits of Davenport. Areas designated RC should
 be located at the intersections of major streets and have good access to interstate and
 other highways. Typical uses include big box retail and large office complexes; although
 some residential, service and institutional uses may also be located within RC. Most
 people will drive or take transit to areas designated RC. However, good pedestrian
 systems should serve these areas and focus on connectivity from the street, through
 parking lots and between individual uses. Connectivity to nearby neighborhoods is
 desirable but less important.


Relevant Goals to be considered in this Case: Strengthen the Existing Built Environment.

The proposed final plat complies with the Davenport +2035 proposed land use section.

Zoning

 1. C-E Elmore Corners Zoning District: The C-E Elmore Corners Zoning District is intended
 to implement the vision contained in the Elmore Corners Area Plan through the
 application of site and building design standards that ensure quality, compatible, and
 coordinated development within the area.


Technical Review

 1. Zoning: The two-lot subdivision complies with the C-E Elmore Corners Commercial
 District dimensional standards. The purpose is to develop a proposed retail
 establishment on Lot 1. The development will be subject to review of a design guideline
 and will come before the Design Review Board. The agricultural field on Lot 2 will
 remain a legal nonconforming use and may continue until development of the site.
 2. Streets: The subdivision does have frontage on a public roadway and shares a private
 access road separating Lot 1 and 2.
 3. Stormwater: Stormwater Detention and water quality is required for this addition per
 city code section 13.34.
 4. Sewer System: There is a 36-inch storm and 8-inch sanitary sewer line spanning the
 length of Elmore Avenue.
 5. Other Utilities: Normal utility services are available on this site.
 6. Parks/Open Space: There are no impacts to parks/open space.


Public Input

Public notification is not required for a final plat.

Preliminary Resolution for the FY 2026 Streambank Stabilization Cost-Share Program project at
1030 Meadowview Lane. [Ward 8]

Recommendation:
Adopt the Resolution.

Background:
Within the City of Davenport, maintenance of streams that flow through private property is
considered the responsibility of the property owner. A resident or business owner petitions the
City to have their stream bank stabilized through the Stream Bank Stabilization Cost Share
Program. This program is an assessment program where one-half of the total cost to
reconstruct or stabilize the stream is paid for by the City and the other one-half is paid for by
the abutting property owners based on the area of their lot affected by the project. The
resident or business that requests to have their stream bank stabilized must obtain the
necessary signatures on a petition prepared by the City of 100% of the owner-occupied
property abutting the designated stream section.

The City has received one petition for a stream noted below:

The east-west section of an unnamed tributary to Goose Creek located all on the property of
1030 Meadowview Lane. The maximum estimated cost of these improvements is $8,500 paid
out of the Sewers Maintenance operating budget. This will be an in-house project constructed
by City staff.

Due to the assessments, half of the project expenses will eventually be recouped by the City.
State law requires that certain Council actions regarding the assessment procedure must
precede the bid letting date or project start, including this action.

 All of the interest on the Series 2026 Bonds is payable semiannually on the first day of
June and December in each year, commencing December 1, 2026. Payment of interest on the
Series 2026 Bonds shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America to the
registered owners appearing on the bond registration books of the City at the close of business on
the fifteenth day of the month next preceding the interest payment date and shall be paid to the
registered owners at the addresses shown on such registration books. Principal of the Series
2026 Bonds shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America to the registered
owners or their legal representatives upon presentation and surrender of the Series 2026 Bond or
Bonds at the office of the Paying Agent.

 The City reserves the right to call for redemption prior to maturity the Series 2026 Bonds
maturing in the years 2035 to 2041, inclusive, in whole or from time to time in part, in one or
more units of $5,000, on June 1, 2034, or on any date thereafter prior to and in any order of
maturity (and within a maturity by lot), upon terms of par and accrued interest. If less than all of
the Series 2026 Bonds of any like maturity are to be redeemed, the particular part of those Series
2026 Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by the Registrar by lot. The Series 2026 Bonds
may be called in part in one or more units of $5,000.

 If less than the entire principal amount of any Series 2026 Bond in a denomination of
more than $5,000 is to be redeemed, the Registrar will issue and deliver to the registered owner
thereof, upon surrender of such original Series 2026 Bond, a new bond or bonds, in any
authorized denomination, in a total aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed balance
of the original Series 2026 Bond. Notice of such redemption as aforesaid identifying the bond or
 -4-

Davenport/629872-97/Sale & Iss Ord GO Bonds, Series 2026


bonds (or portion thereof) to be redeemed shall be sent by electronic means or mailed by
certified mail to the registered owners thereof at the addresses shown on the City’s registration
books not less than 30 days prior to such redemption date. Any notice of redemption may
contain a statement that the redemption is conditioned upon the receipt by the Paying Agent of
funds on or before the date fixed for redemption sufficient to pay the redemption price of the
Series 2026 Bonds so called for redemption, and that if funds are not available, such redemption
shall be cancelled by written notice to the owners of the Series 2026 Bonds called for redemption
in the same manner as the original redemption notice was sent. All of such Series 2026 Bonds as
to which the City reserves and exercises the right of redemption and as to which notice as
aforesaid shall have been given and for the redemption of which funds are duly provided, shall
cease to bear interest on the redemption date.

 The Series 2026 Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the City with the official manual or
facsimile signature of the Mayor and attested with the official manual or facsimile signature of
the Deputy City Clerk, and shall be fully registered bonds without interest coupons. In case any
officer whose signature or the facsimile of whose signature appears on the Series 2026 Bonds
shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of the Series 2026 Bonds, such signature or
such facsimile signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if
he or she had remained in office until delivery.

 The Series 2026 Bonds shall be fully registered as to principal and interest in the names
of the owners on the registration books of the City kept by the Bond Registrar. Each Series 2026
Bond shall be transferable only upon the registration books of the City upon presentation to the
Bond Registrar, together with either a written instrument of transfer satisfactory to the Bond
Registrar or the assignment form thereon completed and duly executed by the registered owner
or the duly authorized attorney for such registered owner.

 The record and identity of the owners of the Series 2026 Bonds shall be kept confidential
as provided by Section 22.7 of the Code of Iowa.

 The Series 2026 Bonds shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the
Certificate of Authentication thereon shall have been signed by the Bond Registrar.

 Section 5. Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary, the Series 2026 Bonds
shall be issued initially as Depository Bonds, with one fully registered Series 2026 Bond for each
maturity date, in aggregate principal amounts equal to the amount of principal maturing on each
such date, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust
Company, New York, New York (“DTC”). On original issue, the Series 2026 Bonds shall be
deposited with DTC for the purpose of maintaining a book-entry system for recording the
ownership interests of its participants and the transfer of those interests among its participants
(the “Participants”). In the event that DTC determines not to continue to act as securities
depository for the Series 2026 Bonds or the City determines not to continue the book-entry
system for recording ownership interests in the Series 2026 Bonds with DTC, the City will
discontinue the book-entry system with DTC. If the City does not select another qualified
securities depository to replace DTC (or a successor depository) in order to continue a book-
entry system, the City will register and deliver replacement bonds in the form of fully registered
certificates, in authorized denominations of $5,000 or integral multiples of $5,000, in accordance
with instructions from Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. In the event that the City identifies a
qualified securities depository to replace DTC, the City will register and deliver replacement
 -5-
 DORSEY & WHITNEY LLP, ATTORNEYS, DES MOINES, IOWA
Davenport/629872-97/Sale & Iss Ord GO Bonds, Series 2026


bonds, fully registered in the name of such depository, or its nominee, in the denominations as
set forth above, as reduced from time to time prior to maturity in connection with redemptions or
retirements by call or payment, and in such event, such depository will then maintain the book-
entry system for recording ownership interests in the Series 2026 Bonds.

 Ownership interest in the Series 2026 Bonds may be purchased by or through
Participants. Such Participants and the persons for whom they acquire interests in the Series
2026 Bonds as nominees will not receive certificated Series 2026 Bonds, but each such
Participant will receive a credit balance in the records of DTC in the amount of such
Participant’s interest in the Series 2026 Bonds, which will be confirmed in accordance with
DTC’s standard procedures. Each such person for which a Participant has an interest in the
Series 2026 Bonds, as nominee, may desire to make arrangements with such Participant to have
all notices of redemption or other communications of the City to DTC, which may affect such
person, forwarded in writing by such Participant and to have notification made of all interest
payments.

 The City will have no responsibility or obligation to such Participants or the persons for
whom they act as nominees with respect to payment to or providing of notice for such
Participants or the persons for which they act as nominees.

 As used herein, the term “Beneficial Owner” shall hereinafter be deemed to include the
person for which the Participant acquires an interest in the Series 2026 Bonds.

 DTC will receive payments from the City, to be remitted by DTC to the Participants for
subsequent disbursement to the Beneficial Owners. The ownership interest of each Beneficial
Owner in the Series 2026 Bonds will be recorded on the records of the Participants whose
ownership interest will be recorded on a computerized book-entry system kept by DTC.

 When reference is made to any action which is required or permitted to be taken by the
Beneficial Owners, such reference shall only relate to those permitted to act (by statute,
regulation or otherwise) on behalf of such Beneficial Owners for such purposes. When notices
are given, they shall be sent by the City to DTC, and DTC shall forward (or cause to be
forwarded) the notices to the Participants so that the Participants can forward the same to the
Beneficial Owners.

 Beneficial Owners will receive written confirmations of their purchases from the
Participants acting on behalf of the Beneficial Owners detailing the terms of the Series 2026
Bonds acquired. Transfers of ownership interest in the Series 2026 Bonds will be accomplished
by book entries made by DTC and the Participants who act on behalf of the Beneficial Owners.
Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interest in the Series
2026 Bonds, except as specifically provided herein. Interest and principal will be paid when due
by the City to DTC, then paid by DTC to the Participants and thereafter paid by the Participants
to the Beneficial Owners.

 Section 6. The form of the Series 2026 Bonds shall be substantially as follows:

 Section 9. A certified copy of this Ordinance shall be filed with the County Auditor

used to the extent available from year to year for the payment of that portion of the principal of
and interest on the Series 2026 Bonds which is applicable to that portion of the total Series 2026
Bond issue applicable to such fund. Each year while any of said Series 2026 Bonds remain
outstanding and unpaid, such of said available funds in amounts sufficient to meet the interest on
that portion of the Series 2026 Bonds applicable to such fund and to pay the principal becoming
due on such portion of the Series 2026 Bonds during each year may be used for that purpose, in
accordance with the Series 2026 Bond Financing Plan on file with the Chief Financial Officer,
and in that event, the tax hereinbefore provided for the payment of such interest and principal
may be reduced by the amount so used. The Deputy City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed
to certify to the County Auditor of Scott County as to the remission or reduction of said ad
valorem tax so that said tax, to the extent such fund is actually available and set aside for such
purpose, shall not be extended or entered upon the tax rolls for collection.

 It is hereby declared to be the purpose and intent of the City to issue the Series 2026
Bonds hereby authorized as general municipal obligations, but at the same time permitting the
use of such funds for the payment of the principal of and interest on that portion of the Series
2026 Bonds issued with respect to such funds.

 Section 12. All funds held in any fund or account created or required to be maintained
under the terms of this Ordinance shall be deposited in lawful depositories of the City or invested
in accordance with Chapters 12B and 12C of the Code of Iowa and continuously held and
secured as provided by the laws of the State of Iowa relating to the depositing, securing, holding
and investing of public funds, or as may be otherwise required to comply with the rebate
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

 All interest received by the City as a result of investments under this section in excess of
the amount, if any, required to be paid to the United States Government in order to comply with
the rebate provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, shall be deposited into or transferred to the
Debt Service Fund subaccount referred to herein and used solely and only for the purpose of
paying principal of and/or interest on the Series 2026 Bonds. The City hereby covenants and
agrees that no such investment shall ever be made so as to cause the interest on the Series 2026
Bonds to become taxable as “arbitrage bonds” pursuant to the provisions of Section 148 of the
Internal Revenue Code.

 Section 13. The Securities and Exchange Commission has promulgated certain
amendments to Rule 15c2-12 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (17 C.F.R. § 240.15c2-
12) (the “Rule”) that make it unlawful for an underwriter to participate in the primary offering of
municipal securities in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or more unless, before submitting a bid
or entering into a purchase contract for such securities, it has reasonably determined that the
issuer or an obligated person has undertaken in writing for the benefit of the holders of such
securities to provide certain disclosure information to prescribed information repositories on a
continuing basis so long as such securities are outstanding.

 On the date of issuance and delivery of the Series 2026 Bonds, the City will execute and
deliver a Continuing Disclosure Certificate pursuant to which the City will undertake to comply
with the Rule. The City covenants and agrees that it will comply with and carry out the
provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate. Any and all of the officers of the City are
hereby authorized and directed to take any and all actions as may be necessary to comply with
the Rule and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate.

 Section 14. It is the intention of the City that interest on the Series 2026 Bonds be and
remain excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes pursuant to the appropriate
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations in
effect with respect thereto (all of the foregoing herein referred to as the “Internal Revenue
Code”). In furtherance thereof the City covenants to comply with the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code as they may from time to time be in effect or amended and further covenants to
comply with applicable future laws, regulations, published rulings and court decisions as may be
necessary to insure that the interest on the Series 2026 Bonds will remain excluded from gross
income for federal income tax purposes. Any and all of the officers of the City are hereby
authorized and directed to take any and all actions as may be necessary to comply with the
covenants herein contained.

Subject:
Resolution ratifying the emergency purchase of FortiGate 901G firewall equipment, software,
licenses, and related support services from GuidePoint Security of Reston, Virginia, in the
amount of $186,197.40. [All Wards]

Recommendation:
Adopt the Resolution.

Background:
This emergency purchase was made by the Information Technology Department to address an
immediate network security risk affecting City systems and operations. Immediate acquisition
and deployment of upgraded firewall and related security infrastructure was necessary to
protect City technology resources, reduce the risk of exposure, and support continuity of
municipal operations. Because the standard procurement timeline would not have addressed
the immediate operational and security need in a timely manner, the emergency purchase
procedure was utilized. The purchase was approved administratively and is now presented to
City Council for ratification.
