CITY GOVERNMENT
Since 1912, Webster City has been a council-manager form of government with a full
time City Manager hired by the Council. Its City Council is comprised of five elected
members that serve staggered four year terms.
Webster City is a progressive community that strongly supports economic development.
And, unlike many local, state and federal governments, Webster City has been fiscally
responsible. The City has earned and maintained a AA- bond rating. This fiscal
responsibility has allowed the city to enjoy:
A fund balance that is equal to over a half year of expenses
Use of less than one third of the City’s debt limit
Three consecutive years with no increase in the City’s mil levy for property taxes
5. 5
Webster City owns and operates the municipal water, sewer and electric utilities. The
City has ample utility capacity to support growth. This includes more than 2.5 million
gallons a day (mgd) of water, 1.5 million mgd of sewer, and 16 MW of cumulative electric
capacity among three existing substations. The City has purchased property, designed,
and set aside the funding for a fourth 20 MW substation to support future industrial
growth in the southern portion of the city. Additionally, the City has a 20 MW backup
generator.
ECONOMIC CHANGES
Like many communities across the globe, Webster City has experienced the impacts of
the downturn in the global economy. The most significant impact was the announced
closure of Electrolux of North America’s Fabric Care plant in October 2009 and the
dislocation of more than 1,000 skilled workers by the end of March 2011.
Electrolux’s departure is part of a wholesale shift in their international business model
and was one of many location moves they’ve made in the last twenty four months.
Despite the Electrolux closure, Webster City has maintained strong business growth
across all sectors, seeing gains in employment at Van Diest Supply Company, Mary
Ann’s Specialty Foods, Vantec and more. Additionally, Webster City is benefiting from a
number of start-ups in all sectors from manufacturing to retail.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
As a result of Electrolux’s announcement in 2009 that it was moving its Webster City
Fabric Care plant to Juarez, Mexico, the City of Webster City refocused on economic
development as the top priority and set aside $1.7 million in economic development
funds to be used to encourage economic investment and job creation.
Additionally, the City contracted an economic development consultant with private sector
development experience to (a) create an economic development strategy and (b)
implement measures to attract new investment and job creation.
Within three months the City had completed a Comprehensive Economic Development
Assessment; a comprehensive review of city codes, policies and operations; a draft
marketing plan; and a targeted industry analysis. This was followed shortly thereafter by
a final marketing plan, adoption of new codes and policies concerning economic
development, and the contracting of a full time economic developer to manage
implementation.
RECENT SUCCESSES
Webster City is a vibrant community with tremendous potential for growth. And, in the
past eighteen months we had a number of economic development successes:
6. 6
The City acquired Electrolux’s central vacuum plant (109,000 sf) and struck a
deal to retain two of Electrolux’s business units (central vacuum sales and fabric
care tech center) accounting for more than 100 jobs.
The City provided direct financial assistance in the form of a short term bridge
loan to help start a new company, Drive Tek Iowa, which is assembling all-
electric vehicles.
Town and Country Insurance, whose headquarters is in Webster City, completed
a multi-million dollar expansion at the east end of our downtown corridor.
Murrary McMurray Hatchery completed construction of a new building to support
its expanding business.
First State Bank recently broke ground on a $700,000 expansion to its Webster
City headquarters.
Caseys General Stores has acquired land from private owners and right of way
from the City to construct a planned new store at the corner of Second and
Superior – the entrance to downtown.
Fareway Stores has announced a 4,000 sf expansion and full remodel of its
store.
The City completed the sale of its 20,000 sf speculative industrial building in our
SE Industrial Park.
These investments by private companies have been bolstered by more than $50 million
in public investments in infrastructure in the past eighteen months, including:
A new $35 million dollar critical access hospital, the Van Diest Medical Center,
was completed in the fall of 2010.
Construction is underway on a $13.1 million dollar competition gym at our high
school.
Construction has started on a $500,000 bus barn for MIDAS – the local public
transportation authority.
The City has initiated more and completed than $3 million in road improvement
projects, including a $1 million dollar project to improve the intersection of
Superior and Fairmeadow.
The City is underway with the design and construction of a new $2.5 million
dollar well.
A map depicting the location of these projects is included on the website we’ve set up for
this RFP.
PLANNING AND PERMITTING
Webster City understands that time is money. We have an experienced Planning and
Zoning department that is routinely able to issue construction and building permits in a
matter of days. Moreover, the city maintains simple processes and those planning
7. 7
decisions requiring approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission and/or City
Council can generally be completed in six to ten weeks.
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP)
BACKGROUND
The City has been contacted by a number of prospective projects that are interested in
locating in Webster City, but have yet to do so because of a lack of adequate office
space.
This includes a prospective company the City is working to finalize a deal with that will
require construction of approximately 11,000 square feet of office space for a single
tenant. This deal would ideally yield a lease rate per square foot per year of no greater
than $12, which would cover the base lease price, building maintenance and snow
removal. Tenant would be responsible for utilities. The City believes it will have a letter
of intent from the prospect within the next few weeks that will include a minimum five
year lease term.
Additionally, the City believes there are other potential users and we are currently
speaking with those interested parties to determine interest and assemble additional
commitments.
In order to meet the needs of the initial tenant, this project would need to commence this
construction season and be completed and ready for occupancy in the summer of 2012.
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
Webster City owns a 0.7636 acre parcel in downtown Webster City that is zoned C3
Highway Business.
The City has identified this property as a location for the development of one or more
office/retail buildings
The City seeks proposals from developers, investors or development teams that are:
A. Qualified to develop an office/retail project that will include at least 11,000 square
feet of office space to be constructed immediately for the expected tenant, as
well as an additional amount of office and retail space for lease or rent that would
be built now or as a second phase
B. Qualified and interested in owning the building and managing the property,
including all leases, maintenance, and insurance
8. 8
C. Willing to assist in soliciting additional tenants to expand the size and scope of
the project
The City’s intent is to select a qualified company with the experience and entrepreneurial
initiative to complete a high-quality project in the time frame required by this proposal.
The goal of the project is to achieve new development in downtown Webster City that
will satisfy an existing space need and attract new opportunities for the City.
The City reserves the right to select up to three firms that would be invited to interview
with the City for further consideration before a final selection is made.
CITY INVOLVEMENT
To facilitate development of this project, Webster City is prepared to stay involved in the
project and commit, at a minimum, the following resources:
Free land
Installation of site utilities
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) of up to 100% for up to 14 years
Waived utility hook-up fees
Waived building permit fees
Webster City may also consider further contributions to the project as may be needed to
achieve the City’s goals and meet the tenant’s needs. The City may be willing to:
Contribute upfront capital,
Backstop the developer’s investment by covering a portion of lease costs of
vacant space for a fixed period of time, or
Make sure other reasonable alternative contribution to achieve the project’s
success
Proposals must indicate what, if any, additional contributions would be required of the
City. The City will evaluate proposals based on how little assistance will be needed from
the City to complete the project.
CREATIVITY ENCOURAGED
The City encourages creativity in development concepts, including in the design.
However, the City desires to have the project reflect elements of the City’s existing
architecture. The development could be constructed as multiple single story buildings or
as multi-story buildings, but a single space must be able to accommodate at least
11,000 square feet.
ALTERNATIVE FINANCING
9. 9
The City is aware of alternative financing programs that the developer may be able to
use for this project. The City can assist a developer in applying for these programs,
which could be used to finance all or a portion of the project. These range from federally
tax exempt bonds to low interest loans to loan guarantees. The proposal should indicate
what, if any, alternative financing is desired by the developer.
Potential sources of alternative financing may include:
Corn Belt Power Fund
This program is available through the Corn Belt Power Cooperative and offers loans for
construction. The maximum loan available is $150,000. Interest rates depend on prime,
but have been as low as 4%. Terms can range from 3-10 years.
Midwest Area Disaster Bonds
These bonds can be administered through Webster City or the Iowa Finance Authority.
They are Federal Tax Exempt Revenue Bonds that can go towards the creation or
expansion of any business in Iowa for manufacturing, retail or shopping centers, office
buildings, restaurants and more. The deadline for issuance is January 1, 2013. There is
a $200 million dollar limit per project.
USDA Business and Industry Loan Guarantee Program
The USDA will guarantee loans by eligible lenders to businesses that benefit rural areas
less than 50,000 in population. The inability to obtain other credit is not an eligibility
requirement. The loan guarantees can be used for loans that include construction,
development, and acquisition.
Additional information on alternative financing and incentives can be found at:
www.buildwebstercity.com/Downtown-Development-Project.aspx.
