Improvement Package Summary

This improvement request is for a laptop for use by the Economic Development intern position,
established in 2019 and typically dedicated to Arts & Culture activities within the department. This
position has previously relied on access to shared work stations, limiting hours available for
employment, or the use of refurbished and thus inadequate machines for use by intern. To provide
effective and equitable service, we request a laptop for onsite use by the year-round .25 intern position.
When not in use by the Econ Dev intern, the laptop maybe used to support work of AmeriCorps and
other grant -funded temporary support personnel related. This request supports the City council goal of
Financially Responsible, High -Performance City Organization.

This improvement request is for addition of a .75 FTE Communications Specialist / Grants
Administration Assistant (GE-31) to support the full-time Arts & Cultural Affairs Coordinator.
Responsibilities of for the Arts & Cultural Affairs Coordinator have increased steadily since their hire in
July 2019 in response to expanding community impacts, growing partnerships, emergence of diverse
-73-
priorities, and procurement of outside grant funding in support of continued Arts & Culture Master Plan
implementation and COVID-19 recovery efforts of arts and culture assets and the creative sector. In
compliment to the current Arts Coordinator's skill set, an individual with strong design skills, a working
knowledge of marketing trends and a broad range of online and physical engagement platforms, and
ability to implement best practices in grant administration and reporting is a vital addition to effectively
manage current and anticipated FY23 workloads. In FY23, the Office of Arts & Cultural Affairs
anticipates launch of a comprehensive arts and culture communication campaign in partnership with
Travel Dubuque, facilitation of the Arts & Economic Prosperity Study VI, and the management of up to
$530,000 pending grant requests to state and federal sources. We also anticipate and welcome
developing arts and culture -inspired community engagement efforts in collaboration with the Black
Heritage Survey, the Office of Shared Prosperity, and the Bee Branch Pollinator Week.
This position will pilot in FY22 anticipated to start March 1, 2022, with costs covered by $7,500 in
confirmed Iowa Arts Council ARPA grant funds and $8,030 in NEAARPA LAA Subgranting funds. The
continuation of this position in FY23 is outlined in the allocation of NEAARPA funds; NEA funds can
only be applied to management of that $500,000 award. Leveraging NEA funds alongside general funds
to offer a .75 FTE position will would dramatically improve the Arts & Cultural Affairs Coordinator's
capacity with Master Plan oversight, Commission support, community partnerships and existing
programs, grant seeking and reporting, work cross -departmentally on City initiatives, equity work
internally and with funded partners, and general community engagement. This request supports the
City Council Goal of Financially Responsible, High Performance City Organization: Sustainable,
Equitable and Effective Service Delivery and Diverse Arts, Culture, Parks & Recreation.

This improvement request is for payment of expenses related to the preparation of grant applications.
EPA Brownfields grants, in themselves, have catalyzed hundreds of millions of dollars in public and
private investment in our community. Having funds to cover the expense of writing the grant
applications is a small investment. Having well -written grants increases the chances of Dubuque
receiving these grants which historically have funded important efforts such as the original purchase of
land for the Industrial Center West, the redevelopment of the Historic Millwork District, the development
of the Port of Dubuque, the transformation of the Bee Branch area, and others. The community benefits
from the positive economic and aesthetic changes in these various areas of town provide. Based on
the wide variety of grants the City applies for and has received, funding the grant writing process results
in achieving all the City Council's goals.

This improvement request is for providing $3,000 grants to minority -owned businesses to support
ongoing operations. Eligible expenses under the grant include but are not limited to permanent
equipment/signage, supplies, rent/utilities, training/technical assistance, and marketing. This funding
will supplement CDBG funds (CIP 260-2636) for the same purpose, which can only be utilized by low-
income individuals. In 2021, this program assisted 10 businesses, of which 9 are minority -owned and 8
are women -owned. The program helped businesses hire new employees, get certifications, move into
new office space, as well as other business -expansion efforts. This program addresses the City's goals
of Equitable Poverty Prevention & Reduction — making sure that our minority -owned businesses have
adequate resources to succeed and reducing the racial equity gap. No change to staffing needs, as
grant administration is contracted with Fountain of Youth, who also deliver personal development
sessions.

This improvement request increases funds available to be granted to Dubuque -based arts and culture
organizations via the Operating Support Grants (OSG) program through the Office of Arts and Cultural
Affairs. Established in 2005, OSG is a competitive funding opportunity available to established arts,
culture or humanities -based nonprofits. Applicants are generally eligible for up to 6% or $30,000 max of
their verifiable operating budget; requests are scored by a panel independent of staff or the Arts
Commission against a rubric that measures equity impacts, organizational stability, and alignment with
City goals and priorities.
Initially in FY05, $200,000 was allotted and distributed to 12 organizations. Most recently, for FY22
$250,000 was budgeted and distributed to 19 organizations. This current funding cycle that fully
disbursed the program's $250,000 budget met only 81.3% of the funding requested by 19 applicants
who's operating budgets collectively total $12,106,131. As we seek to keep up with growth in
organizations, new organizations becoming eligible, and meeting the needs of grantees to support their
diverse work in the community, as well as the recovery of our cultural assets after COVID-19, this
request will move us closer to filling the gap in funding requests. The request supports City Council
Goal of Diverse Arts, Culture, Parks, and Recreation Experiences and Activities by providing essential
support to Arts and Culture organizations to sustain their operations, especially needed due to long
terms impacts of COVID-19 on earned revenue. Arts and Culture Operating Support also supports the
City Council goals of Robust Local Economy as OSG funds can support jobs and Vibrant Community
through supporting safe, accessible activities that positively impact the brain health of those that
participate in them. A majority of OSG grantees are located within or primarily serve audiences in
CDBG target areas.

This improvement request is to continue the AmeriCorps Teen Creative Engagement Specialist position
and to secure a laptop for that person's work to foster teen engagement efforts related to the City's arts
and culture related programming in support of ongoing implementation of the City's Arts and Culture
Master Plan; this Teen Creative Engagement Specialist is currently being recruited and paid for through
a no match FY22 AmeriCorps grant. The AmeriCorps' will be supervised by the Arts & Cultural Affairs
Coordinator in collaboration with the City's established AmeriCorps program. The host organization for
the AmeriCorps has yet to be determined but initial conversations have identified that the Multicultural
Family Center, Dubuque Museum of Art or Creative Adventure Lab are likely partners. Partnering with
the AmeriCorps program is a cost effective method to expanding the capacity of the Office of Arts &
Cultural Affairs; an AmeriCorps dedicates 1700 hours to their focus area over an 11-month period which
averages out to 34-hours per week. The AmeriCorps' efforts will be targeted at teen engagement and
representation in the Art on the River program, the Dubuque Renaissance Project, and other public art
related initiatives. A laptop is part of the request as the Economic Development Department does not
currently have one available and a computer will be necessary for the AmeriCorps' work; the laptop will
be used by future AmeriCorps, creating continuity with the work being done. The request supports City
Council Goal of Diverse Arts, Culture, Parks, and Recreation Experiences and Activities by expanding
youth engagement and contributions in City's arts and culture programs. The request also supports the
City Council goal of Partnership for a Better Dubuque by fostering a new collaboration among City
departments that directly connect and impact community programs and organizations. This
improvement package broadens the impact of Art on the River and Master Plan Implementation,
identified as a 2020-2022 High Policy Priority. AmeriCorps: Potential Expansion Area is identified as a
2021-23 Management in Progress item for the Diverse Arts, Culture, Parks, and Recreation
Experiences and Activities City Council Goal. The 3 potential AmeriCorps host organizations are within
and serve residents in CDBG target areas; Art on the River is within a CDBG target area.

This improvement request is for an additional $214,000 to sponsor 66 Dream Center students for an
entire year of programming. The Dream Center program provides students with year-round holistic
services that include continued School Day Curriculum, Healthy Meals, Skill/Character Development,
and more. Academic success is largely built on skills and concepts students learn in grades K-3. High -
quality assessments can pinpoint student trouble spots before they become problems with long-lasting
impact. The City of Dubuque's support will allow us to focus on continuing to Impact children of low-
income and working families as we prepare for our campaign to become a licensed childcare facility
and Student Sponsorship program in 2021. In order to progress towards sustainable income to continue
to provide quality and affordable care to the children of working families, the Dream Center is seeking to
become a Licensed Childcare Facility and generate funding support from the State of Iowa by Fall
2021. Becoming a licensed childcare facility means access to affordable childcare for working families.
The Student Sponsorship program will be established to assist low-income families that do NOT meet
the Department of Human Services requirements for financial childcare assistance but are unable to
afford the annual program fees. The City recently funded a $276,000 funding gap for capital
improvements and a $15,000 planning grant for those improvements. The currently funds a $50,000
contracted service agreement. Recommendation is $10,000.

Their current funding level is $75,000. They are requesting a $20,000 increase in their
FY23 reques
Project HOPE (Helping our People Excel) is an initiative led by the Community
Foundation that brings together key stakeholders in a collaborative process to address
systemic issues facing individuals living in poverty within the City of Dubuque and the
greater community. The goal of Project HOPE is to increase access to economic
opportunity for all community members by addressing barriers around-
• education,
• employment,
• brain health, and
• other factors that are critical for individuals and families to thrive in Dubuque.
The work is done through a collective impact framework, convening the Project HOPE
Stakeholder Group on a monthly basis in order to drive strategic thinking around
collaborative solutions. The Stakeholder Group is run in close partnership with the City's
Office of Shared Prosperity and is aimed at carrying out key elements of the City's
Equitable Poverty Prevention Plan (EPPP).
Project HOPE includes several specific programs aimed at addressing barriers to
economic success, including:
• Partnering with the City of Dubuque's Office of Shared Prosperity and the
Neighborhood Support Group to help lead the effort to create a thriving community
through promoting equity and eliminating barriers for the city's most vulnerable
communities.

• Leading two Brain Health Stakeholder Working Groups to help identify gaps in
brain health service and solutions that can be collectively enacted in our region_
• Creating a Brain HealthiSubstance Use Resource Card to be distributed in our
community_
• Helping create a Law Enforcement Liaison Program in Dubuque County to assist
our law enforcem ant when deescalating a brain health issue.
• Expanding college access — especially for low-income, minority, and first -
generation students —through our Dubuque College Access Network (DCAN)_
• Expanding the Disaster Recovery Fund for the Covid-19 pandemic in order to
assist local nonprofits with reducing the economic and health impacts of the
disease on vulnerable populations and continuing to engage long term needs that
may emerge.
• Providing free, volunteer income tax assistance and Earned Income Tax Credit
assistance through the VITA program_
• Expanding our local Jail Diversion program by utilizing additional community
partners to help vulnerable individuals in our jaiI system.
• Convening the Partnership Empowerment Network (PEN) of professionals working
with youth or young adults on education, career, or self-sufficiency goals_
• Convening the local Community Organizations Active in Disaster (GOAD) group to
help storm victims and their families with funds to meet their needs.
In 2022, Project Hope will be launching two initiatives playing a central role in carrying out
the goals of Project HOPE and the City of Dubuque's Equitable Poverty Prevention Plan-
1 _ The f rst i s to work with the Office of Share Prosperity to create an Equity Index, a
data measurement framework that helps quantify how equitably different groups
and populations are able to thrive in Dubuque.
2. The second is to develop data sharing and analysis tools around a Youth
Employment Coalition, helping the City and key local partners measure and track
the ability of youth from underserved and diverse communities to achieve family
sustaining careers_
Both of these initiatives will impact the City's efforts related to economic development,
workforce and affordable housing, population growth_ As these initiatives are new, they
are not currently accounted for in the existing funding provided to Project HOPE_ Project
HOPE currently receives $75,000 for its existing work_ Project Hope is seeking an
additional $20,000 in funding to account for the data gathering and analysis which will be
specifically benefit the City of Dubuque, city residents, and all workers and visitors to the
city_
-85-
The data generated by funding these initiatives will also allow for further tracking of the
City's progress toward the goals set by the City Council. I recommend the additional
$20,000 in funding be provided to Project HOPE_
