At its first regular meeting of 2025, the Iowa City Community School District Board of Directors voted to approve a proposed underground easement for Quest Corporation d/b/a CenturyLink QC following a public hearing.
The board opened the public hearing on the proposed easement, noting the board set the hearing date on Dec. 10, 2024 and that a notice was published in the Iowa City Press-Citizen on Dec. 13, 2024. Vice President Abraham opened the hearing by saying, “Now is the time and place for the public hearing on the proposed Quest Corporation DBA CenturyLink QC Easement.”
No public questions or comments were recorded during the hearing. A board member moved to approve the underground easement and another director seconded the motion. Board Secretary Cam Colvin called the online vote; the board recorded that all directors voted in favor and the motion carried unanimously. The meeting record shows the board approved the easement without amendment or condition.
Why it matters: easements for telecommunications infrastructure can affect district-owned land use and future site work; approving an underground easement permits the utility to install and maintain facilities beneath district property.
No additional terms, parcel identifiers, or related contracts were discussed at the meeting. The board’s file includes the December hearing notice and the motion approving the easement.
