Description: To amend the Dubuque Industrial Center Planned Unit Development
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 applicant, Todd Geisler, 12123 Forest Meadow Drive, spoke in favor of the project
stating that that they are looking to have the zoning adjusted so they can put up a 60' x
120' storage/light manufacturing building to support the business' current services.
Staff detailed the staff report noting the subject parcel is located to the east of the Geisler
Brothers current property at 1500 Radford. Staff explained that the current PUD
designates this parcel as open space, and the applicant is seeking to amend the land use
map to change this parcel from open space land use to industrial land use. Additionally,
the setback for the subject property would have to be reclassified to be consistent with
industrial land use standards. Staff also noted that any future project on the subject site
would be subject to site plan review by the City's Development Review Team.
The Commission questioned why the parcel was not industrial land use in the first place
and staff explained that the open space designation was part of the overall PUD area
design, and it was intended for stormwater management. Staff further explained that
future development would be required to address the stormwater management.
There were no public comments. An email was received in support of the project.
The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request finding it appropriate.
Recommendation
By a vote of 5 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council
approve the request.

TO: Zoning Advisory Commission
FROM: Shena Moon, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: Amendment of the Dubuque Industrial Center Planned Unit Development to
modify the land use designation for an approximately 5.5-acre parcel (PIN
1029251014) from Open Space Land Use to Industrial Land Use.
INTRODUCTION
The applicant, Todd Geisler of Geisler Brothers Company, is requesting to amend the
existing Dubuque Industrial Center (DIC) Planned Unit Development (PUD) to modify
the land use designation for an approximately 5.5-acre parcel (PIN 1029251014) from
Open Space Land Use to Industrial Land Use. The subject parcel is located to the east
of Geisler Brothers Company's existing facility at 1500 Radford Road. The proposed
amendment would allow Geisler Brothers Company to expand their existing facility onto
the subject parcel to the east.
BACKGROUND
The DIC PUD district is located east of Radford Road and west of the Northwest Arterial
along Chavenelle Road. The PUD for DIC was originally established in 1980 with a PI
Planned Industrial designation. Various amendments have been approved to the PUD
since its origination. The applicant is now requesting to amend the most recent
ordinance, No. 22-07, in order to allow an approximately 5.5-acre parcel to be
redesignated from Open Space Land Use to Industrial Land Use. This request is being
made in order to allow development on the subject parcel as part of an expansion of the
existing Geisler Brothers Company facility which is located on the lot to the west.
PUD area and site details provided in image on the following page.

Subject Parcel
(PIN 1029251014)
DISCUSSION
Geisler Brothers Company has purchased the subject 5.5-acre parcel (PIN1029251014)
with the goal of expanding their existing facility at 1500 Radford Road, which is located
to the west of the subject parcel. During conceptual discussions about this expansion,
City staff identified that the existing DIC PUD designates the subject parcel as Open
Space Land Use and therefore would not allow for development. Consequently, the
applicant is requesting to amend Ordinance 22-07 to modify the land use designation
from Open Space Land Use to Industrial Land Use.
The proposed PUD amendment would modify the designation for the subject parcel
only. If approved, the modification to Industrial Land Use would permit for the subject
parcel to the same development standards permitted for the existing Geisler Brothers
Company property, including permitted land uses, accessory uses, lot and bulk
development standards, signage, sight lighting, stormwater management, and all other
applicable standards outlined in the ordinance.
Memo to Zoning Advisory Commission
Page 2
If the PUD amendment is approved, prior to any development taking place on the
subject parcel the property owner would be required to obtain site plan approval through
the City's Development Review Team (DRT). The DRT is comprised of multiple City
departments including Engineering, Planning, Water Distribution, Fire, Police, Housing
& Community Development, and Leisure Services. Site plans are reviewed by all
relevant departments regarding street improvements, site access, parking, grading,
screening, paving, park land, stormwater management, water connection, sanitary
sewer connection, fire safety, and more. It is anticipated that any effects on the
environment would be mitigated through the review process and appropriate site
development plans.
Planning staff believes that the proposed amendment to modify the existing land use
designation for the subject 5.5-acre parcel (PIN1029251014) from Open Space Land
Use to Industrial Land Use will not have a substantial impact on development within the
area because it would not prohibit other development in the area and would be subject
to the same development regulations of other existing development in the DIC PUD.
Furthermore, a site plan review will be required for any future development on the
subject parcel, which will take into consideration development regulations such as lot
coverage, landscaping, signage, and stormwater.
RECOMMENDATION
City staff recommends that the Zoning Advisory Commission review the enclosed
materials and make a recommendation regarding the amendment to the Dubuque
Industrial Center PUD to modify the land use designation for an approximately 5.5-acre
parcel (PIN 1029251014) from Open Space Land Use to Industrial Land Use.
