Kirscher would purchase the property for a combined total of $100.00 ($75.00 and $25.00 respectively) to expand their adjoining properties' side yards, subject to utility easement reservations. The City determined there is no known current or future public need for the property and the sale would not inconvenience city operations.

Ordinance 14866 amends the Des Moines Municipal Code to establish regulations for keeping agricultural and exotic animals within city limits. The ordinance permits such animals only on acreage (not standard lots), with restrictions including: a 75-foot setback from residential dwellings, a limit of two animals per acre (plus one additional per extra acre) except fowl limited to 25 per acre, prohibition on commercial use, and a ban on animals running at large. The ordinance grandfathered animals legally kept as of June 25, 2009, but required owners to apply for exemption status by June 30, 2010, with no replacement of deceased or removed animals if total numbers exceeded new allowances.
