The City Council will be voting on the approval of the land lease agreement with Iowa State to allow construction of the Intermodal Facility.

The Intermodal Facility is part of an $8.463 million grant the U.S. Department of Transportation awarded to the city of Ames in February, 2010.

The new facility will be owned by the Ames Transit Agency. The objective for the project is to supply additional parking space in the Campustown area.

If the agreement is passed, construction of the facility will begin no later than March 15.

The City Council will vote on the agreement at 7 p.m. Tuesday in the council chambers at City Hall, 515 Clark Ave.
