Public Hearing
CIP: 100-2781
DATE: December 27, 2019
Project Manager Steve Sampson Brown recommends City Council approval of the
plans, specifications, form of contract and estimated base bid cost of $2,404,000 for the
Chaplain Schmitt Veteran's Memorial Project.
The Chaplain Schmitt Island Improvement Agreement between the City of Dubuque and
the Dubuque Racing Association, LTD (DRA) stipulates that City will not incur any costs
related in any way to the design, design review(s), permits, city project management
costs, contingency, construction, construction inspections of the Improvements and that
should City in fact incur such costs, City will be fully reimbursed by DRA up to the
$3,220,000.00. DRA will reimburse City for 50% of any costs the City incurs in excess
of $3,220,000.00.
The agreement creates a Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory Committee consisting of
three City representatives and three DRA representatives. One of the primary purposes
of the Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory Committee is to ensure that the cost of the
Improvements does not exceed $3,220,000.00. The Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory
Committee will make any changes to the Improvements, including but not limited to
alternate materials or designs and elimination of Improvements, necessary to ensure
that the cost of all Improvements does not exceed $3,220,000.00. Consequently, all
design, bids, change orders over $5,000, and design changes must be approved by a
majority of the Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory Committee.
The estimated cost for annual maintenance of the project after completion is in excess
of $40,000. The DRA has agreed to pay those annual costs.
If the City benefits from a competitive bidding environment and the bids for both the
base bid and any of the bid alternates are below $3,039,700 ($3,220,000 minus
$180,300 contingency), then the City will select the bid alternates in numerical order
and include them as part of the award for this project. Otherwise, only the base bid will
be used as the basis of the award for this project.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

Public Hearing
CI P: 100-2781
DATE: December 26, 2019
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memo is to provide the City Council with information related to the
public hearing for the Chaplain Schmitt Veteran's Memorial Project.
BACKGROUND
At the November 5, 2018 City Council Meeting approved the Chaplain Schmitt Island
Improvement Agreement between the City of Dubuque and the Dubuque Racing
Association, LTD (DRA) for the development of the Chaplain Schmitt Veteran's
Memorial Project.
At the December 17, 2018 City Council Meeting, the City Council approved giving
authorization to the City Manager to negotiate the final terms of an agreement with RDG
Planning & Design (RDG) and to execute a contract for design, engineering and
construction administration services for the Chaplain Schmitt Veteran's Memorial
Project. RDG has completed their design work and the contract documents for the
project are ready for bidding.
In July of 2019 the public bidding procedure for this project was initially authorized by
the city council. Bids for the project were opened on August 1 St. The lowest bid
received was 27.3% over the architect's estimate. As a result the City Council rejected
the bids for the project at its meeting on August 19, 2019. After the bids were rejected
the design team for the project collaborated with the Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory
Committee to value engineer the project so that the project scope falls within the
available budget.
DISCUSSION
The proposed improvements for the new memorial will include a number of amenities to
honor Veterans, Chaplain Schmitt himself, and improve the overall experience and
enhance the existing monuments. All of the existing memorial elements will be
preserved in their current location or integrated into the new layout. The proposed
improvements include enhancing the Veterans Memorial Plaza by improving the edge of
Page 1 of 4
the pond with a pathway, seating and plaza expansion space for additional memorials
and Veterans' tributes. The pond edge along Admiral Sheehy Drive will be cleaned-up
to enhance viewsheds. The proposed Chaplain Schmitt Island Memorial is composed
of a decorative swirling concrete path that transforms into an elevated boardwalk that
extends from the Veteran's Plaza over the pond. Located at the end of the boardwalk is
a circular landing that contains a structure/sculpture titled "Skyward". This }
structure/sculpture is a 52' long stainless-steel sheet with vertical cut slits that is 24' high
on one end and tapers down to 15' on the other end. The sheet is then loosely rolled to
a diameter of 11'. An opening allowing pedestrians to enter the sculpture to where they
will be able to read a poem which will be etched on the metal. Colorful nighttime lighting
will be used in a subtle way to honor our Veterans and add prominence to the memorial.
An improved and expanded Memorial Plaza will facilitate formal and informal
gatherings, ceremonies, and contemplation. The Plaza will become part of the overall
public space system on the Island. As part of the project, the Tri-State Vietnam
Veteran's Memorial which is currently located by Miller Riverview Park will be relocated
to the Memorial Plaza.
In accordance Section 2.2 of the Dubuque Racing Association Chaplain Schmitt Island
Improvement Agreement by and between the City of Dubuque, lowa and The Dubuque
Racing Association, LTD dated October 25, 2018, all design, bids, change orders over
$5,000.00, and design changes must be approved by a majority of the Chaplain Schmitt
Project Advisory Committee.
At the end of November 2019 the Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory Committee
affirmed the final project scope, budget, and to initiate bidding on the project via email
voting. The members of the Advisory Committee are:
For City: Mike Van Milligen — City Manager
Gus Psihoyos — City Engineer

FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
SUBJECT: Schmitt Island Improvement Agreement between the Dubuque Racing
Association and the City of Dubuque
DATE: November 1, 2018
Leisure Services Manager Marie Ware and Assistant City Attorney Maureen Quann
have negotiated a Schmitt Island Improvement Agreement between the Dubuque
Racing Association (DRA) and the City of Dubuque.
The agreement has been unanimously approved by the Dubuque Racing Association
Board of Directors.
Chaplain Schmitt Island —Veteran's Memorial Site improvements include:
The proposed improvements for the Veterans Memorial on Chaplain Schmitt Island will
include a number of amenities to honor veterans, Chaplain Schmitt, improve the overall
experience and enhance the existing monuments. All of the existing memorial elements
will be preserved in their current location or integrated into the new layout. The
following is a summary of the improvements:
Veterans Memorial Plaza
• Memorial Gardens and Plantings to welcome guests
• New Paving that integrates the existing (and future) donor pavers
• A waterfall feature
• New and enhanced lighting
Chaplain Schmitt Memorial "Skyward" and the Golden Mean
• A new boardwalk out over the pond that leads to the "skyward" memorial to
honor Chaplain Schmitt
• Interpretive signage along the boardwalk to help tell the story of Chaplain Schmitt
• Integrated lighting
Recreational Trail & Pond Clean Up
• A new recreational trail around the pond
• A cleaned up shoreline using ecologically based design principals
• Removal of invasive trees around the pond's perimeter
• Places to sit and gather
• Traillighting
South Point Overlook
• A new overlook to gather, picnic or fish
• Places to connect and reflect
• Seating, tables and observation areas
Sign Wall
• A new stone entry wall that welcomes people to the island
• Lighting
New Parking and Parking Lot Screening
• New parallel parking will be added
• The existing parking lot will be retrofitted with landscaping to screen the surround
areas
The estimated cost of the improvements is $3,220,000, in addition to the money the
DRA has already spent on planning and design.
The agreement provides that the DRA will pay for the improvements and the City of
Dubuque will complete the design, engineering and construction of the project. The
DRA has executed a loan agreement with American Trust and Savings Bank that allows
the City to draw money from the loan as expenses are incurred.
DRA acknowledges and agrees that it is the intent of the parties that City will not incur
any costs related in any way to the design, design review(s), permits, city project
management costs, contingency, construction, construction inspections of the
Improvements and that should City in fact incur such costs, City will be fully reimbursed
by DRA up to the $3,220,000.00. DRA will reimburse City for 50°� of any costs the City
incurs in excess of$3,220,000.00.
The agreement creates a Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory Committee consisting of
three City representatives and three DRA representatives. One of the primary purposes
of the Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory Committee is to ensure that the cost of the
Improvements does not exceed $3,220,000.00. The Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory
Committee will make any changes to the Improvements, including but not limited to
alternate materials or designs and elimination of Improvements, necessary to ensure
that the cost of all Improvements does not exceed $3,220,000.00. Consequently, all
design, bids, change orders over $5,000, and design changes must be approved by a
majority of the Chaplain Schmitt Project Advisory Committee.
The estimated cost for annual maintenance of the project after completion is in excess
of$40,000. The DRA has agreed to pay those annual costs.
2
After City Council acceptance of the Improvements, City will perform and pay for Capital
Improvements (exceeding $10,000), if City Council approves of such Capital
Improvements. If City Council does not approve of such Capital Improvements, DRA
will have the option to undertake or perform Capital Improvements, but only after prior
written City Council approval. If DRA chooses to undertake or perform Capital
Improvements the City Council may choose, in its sole discretion, to undertake, perform,
or assist with any Capital Improvements to and within Improvements, but City has no
obligation or responsibility to do so.
The goal will be to complete the project by Veteran's Day November 11 , 2019, but there
is a very real possibility that a more realistic completion date is Memorial Day May 25,
2020.
I respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval of the Chaplain Schmitt Island
Improvement Agreement.
