Location: Gateway Drive and Stonehill Drive
Description: Rezoning Request for Southgate Development PUD
Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
The City of Dubuque Zoning Advisory Commission has reviewed the above-cited
request. The application, staff report and related materials are attached for your review.
Discussion
The applicanYs representative spoke in favor of the request, reviewing the location of
the property, surrounding zoning and land use, and the reasons for requesting rezoning
back to C-3 General Commercial.
Staff reviewed the staff report, reviewing that the property was required to be zoned
PUD in 1990 because at the time, developments with private streets were required to be
zoned PUD. Staff noted the Zoning Ordinance was amended in 1998 eliminating that
requirement. Staff added the existing PUD regulations mimic C-3 regulations for
allowed uses, setbacks, signs, and parking. Staff noted all property owners in the PUD
have submitted letters of support.
There were no public comments.
The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, and noted that the streets
would remain private if rezoned to C-3 General Commercial District. The Commission
felt the request was appropriate.
Recommendation
By a vote of 5 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council
approve the request.
A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request.

Total Area: 13.036 acres
Property History: This property was rezoned from C-3 General Commercial to Planned
Unit Development with a PC Planned Commercial designation in June 1990. At that
time, the rezoning request was to allow for the development of the commercial center
with private streets. The Zoning Ordinance in effect at that time required that any
development, whether it be residential or commercial, be rezoned to a Planned Unit
Development if they were to have private streets. The Zoning Ordinance was amended
in 1998 to eliminate that requirement.
Physical Characteristics: The subject property is located at the southeast corner of
Highway 61/151 and Highway 52. The subject property encompasses approximately 13
acres and is served by two private streets named Gateway Drive and Stonehill Drive.
The subject property has access to U.S. Highway 52 and a right-in/right-out on Highway
61/151. The property generally drains to the southeast.
Concurrence with Comprehensive Plan: The 2017 Comprehensive Plan included the
following Land Use recommendations that supports the applicant's request.
COMMERCIAL: Be responsive to market demands and the needs of residents by
providing key retail and employment centers. Ensure that such development does not
impact the quality of life in adjacent residential neighborhoods.
• Explore additional opportunities for limited commercial development within
neighborhoods to provide enhanced local access to day-to-day goods and
Rezoning Staff Report — Gateway Drive & Stonehill Drive Page 2
services like convenience goods, dry cleaning, etc. such uses are typically best
located at major intersections.
• Continue to concentrate commercial uses within a regional draw along major
transportation corridor, including downtown.
Impact of Request on:
Utilities: Existing utilities are adequate to serve the site. The proposed rezoning
would have no impact on existing utilities.
Traffic Patterns/Counts: Based on 2013 IDOT Counts, U.S. Highway 61/151 carries
12,800 average daily trips, and U.S. Highway 52 carries 8,200 average daily trips.
Public Services: Existing public services are adequate to serve the property.
Environment: Staff does not anticipate any adverse impact to the environment as
the proposed rezoning does not change the erosion control and storm water
management requirements already applied to the site.
Adjacent Properties: Planning staff does not anticipate any change in the impacts
to the adjacent properties as the proposed rezoning from Planned Commercial to
C-3 General Commercial would not change the regulations that are applied to the
continued maintenance and future.
CIP Investments: None proposed.
Staff Analysis: The applicant is requesting rezoning of the property at the southeast
corner of Highway 61/151 and Highway 52 from Planned Unit Development with a
Planned Commercial designation to C-3 General Commercial. The applicant is
requesting this rezoning as the concept plan that was approved in 1990 is not a good fit
with the remaining area of the development. The primary reason for the rezoning in
1990 to a Planned Unit Development designation was the inclusion of private streets
within the development and that is no longer a requirement of the City's Zoning
Regulations and the existing Planned Commercial district regulations are substantially
the same as the City's current C-3 General Commercial regulations.
The subject property was rezoned to Planned Unit Development with a Planned
Commercial designation in 1990, and has been developed for several retail businesses
since that time. Access to the property is by way of a full intersection at Highway 52
and a right-in/right-out access to Highway 61/151. There are no changes proposed to
these access points.
Rezoning Staff Report — Gateway Drive & Stonehill Drive Page 3
The Planned Unit Development District regulations adopted in 1990 as part of the
rezoning of this parcel were identical to the requirements of the C-3 General
Commercial District regulations in effect at that time under the 1985 Zoning Ordinance.
The list of permitted accessory and conditional uses were identical. The bulk
regulations also referenced the C-3 General Commercial District as well as the parking
requirements. The requirements for signage at the time also referenced the C-3
General Commercial District requirements then in effect.
In summary, the only difference between the adopted PUD Ordinance and the existing
C-3 General Commercial regulations in effect at the time, was that there was a
requirement for completion of the frontage road serving the three lots east of Highway
61/151, there was a timetable for construction of a convenience store / gas station, and
completion of excavation, extension of utilities, and construction of a 5,000 square foot
retail building and two 20,000 square foot retail structures, a 17,000 square foot motel
in the remaining area of the PC District in 1997.
Construction timetables for Planned Commercial developments were included in
several other PUDs approved during this time frame between 1985 and the early
1990s. Planning staff have found that these types of construction timetables are almost
impossible to enforce as it's just not practical to require commercial developers to
develop specific commercial buildings when the developer doesn't have a prospective
tenant or buyer.
The existing commercial development is in substantial compliance with the current C-3
General Commercial District regulations found in the Unified Development Code. The
only aspect of the Dubuque Southgate Development that is not currently in compliance
would be the tree planting requirement for new developments. If the requested
rezoning to C-3 General Commercial is approved, the businesses will be grandfathered
in, and like any other commercial business that does not meet current requirements,
would be required to bring the site up to Code when there is a 25% or greater
expansion of the existing building or the site is cleared by 25% or more.
RECOMMENDATION: Planning staff recommends the Zoning Advisory Commission
review the criteria for rezoning requests found in Section 16-9-5(A) of the Unified
Development Code, and make a recommendation to the City Council.
