SUBJECT: Tax Increment Ordinance for the Twin Valley Urban Renewal Area
DATE: January 30, 2023
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum presents for City Council review and adoption an ordinance creating
the tax increment financing district for the Twin Valley Urban Renewal Area. The
proposed ordinance was reviewed by the City's counsel and is attached hereto.
BACKGROUND
On February 6, 2023, the City Council was requested to approve an Urban Renewal Plan
for the Twin Valley Urban Renewal Area. The tax increment ordinance allows for
collection of property tax increment on these properties.
The primary goal of the District is to stimulate, through public involvement and
commitment, private investment in new commercial development as defined by the lowa
Code Section 403.17(10). The City intends to use a portion of these captured funds to
reimbursement itself for certain public infrastructure improvements required under a
Development Agreement by and between McCoy Group, Inc. and the City of Dubuque.
The City also intends to use a portion of these captured funds to provide 20 semi-annual
tax increment financing rebates to McCoy Group, Inc.
DISCUSSION
Adoption of the proposed tax increment ordinance is needed to establish the use of tax
increment financing in the district. The ordinance authorizes the City to establish a special
fund for the collection of a portion of the property tax revenues generated by new
development occurring within the district. All taxable property located with the tax
increment district will continue to pay property taxes based upon the current tax levies
and assessment valuations. Tax revenues collected in excess of the base amounts will
be used to assist in financing future development projects within the district, including
both public and private development.
The City of Dubuque has had tremendous success with its economic development
approach, receiving multiple national recognitions for job creation.
RECOMMENDATION / ACTION STEP
I recommend that following City Council adoption of the Urban Renewal Plan for the Twin
Valley Urban Renewal Area, the City Council adopt the attached tax increment ordinance
for the Twin Valley Urban Renewal Area. This Ordinance will provide for the use of tools
that encourage investment and development activities in the Area and support
revitalization within the Area and the community at large.

A. INTRODUCTION
This Urban Renewal Plan ('Plan" or "Urban Renewal Plan") for the Twin Valley Urban
Renewal Area ("Area" or "Urban Renewal Area") has been developed to help local
officials promote economic development in the City of Dubuque (the "City"). The primary
goal of the Plan is to stimulate, through public involvement and commitment, private
investment in new commercial development.

With the adoption of this Plan, the City designates this Urban Renewal Area as a mixed
area for the promotion of economic development. The City Council has determined that
a need exists for redevelopment of the Urban Renewal Area in order to enhance
economic development activities.
By Resolution No.35-23 adopted February 6, 2023 the City Council declared that these
factors have impaired the sound growth of the Urban Renewal Area.
D. BASE VALUE
If the Urban Renewal Area is legally established, a Tax Increment Financing ("TIF")
ordinance is adopted, and debt is certified prior to December 1, 2023, the taxable
valuation within the area included in the TIF Ordinance as of January 1, 2022 will be
considered the frozen "base valuation." If debt is not certified until a later date or if a TIF
ordinance is not adopted until a later date, the "base value" will be the assessed value of
the taxable property within the TIF ordinance area as of January 1 of the calendar year
preceding the calendar year in which the City first certifies the amount of any debt on the
Urban Renewal Area.

The City has a general plan for the physical development of the City as a whole outlined

forth in this Plan. As the Urban Renewal Area develops, the need for public infrastructure
extensions and upgrades will be evaluated and planned for by the City.

from the Urban Renewal Area. Subject to the foregoing, it is
estimated that the cost of the Eligible Urban Renewal
Projects as described above will be approximately as stated
in the next column:
J. URBAN RENEWAL FINANCING
The City intends to utilize various financing tools such as those described below to
successfully undertake the proposed urban renewal actions. The City has the statutory
authority to use a variety of tools to finance physical improvements within the Urban
Renewal Area. These include:
1. Tax Increment Financing
Under Section 403.19 of the lowa Code, urban renewal areas may utilize the tax
increment financing mechanism to finance the costs of public improvements or economic
development incentives associated with redevelopment projects. Upon creation of a tax
increment district within the Urban Renewal Area, by ordinance, the assessment base is
frozen and the amount of tax revenue available from taxes paid on the difference between
8
the frozen base and the increased value, if any, is segregated into a separate fund for the
use by the City to pay costs of the eligible urban renewal projects. The increased taxes
generated by any new development, above the base value, are distributed to the taxing
entities, if not requested by the City.
2. General Obligation Bonds
Under Division III of Chapter 384 and Chapter 403 of the lowa Code, the City has the
authority to issue and sell general obligation bonds for specified essential and general
corporate purposes, including the acquisition and construction of certain public
improvements within the Urban Renewal Area or incentives for development consistent
with this Plan. Such bonds are payable from the levy of unlimited ad valorem taxes on all
the taxable property within the City. It may be the City will elect to abate some or all of the
debt service on these bonds with incremental taxes from this Urban Renewal Area.
The City may also determine to use tax increment financing to provide incentives such as
cash grants, loans, tax rebates or other incentives to developers in connection with urban
renewal projects for commercial redevelopment, or other urban renewal projects. In
addition, the City may determine to issue general obligation bonds, tax increment revenue
bonds or such other obligations, or loan agreements for the purpose of making loans or
grants of public funds to private businesses located in the Urban Renewal Area.
Alternatively, the City may determine to use available funds for making such loans or
grants for urban renewal projects. In any event, the City may determine to use tax
increment financing to reimburse the City for any obligations or advances.
Nothing herein shall be construed as a limitation on the power of the City to exercise any
lawful power granted to the City under Chapter 15, Chapter 15A, Chapter 403, Chapter
427B, or any other provision of the Code of lowa in furtherance of the objectives of this
Plan.
K. PROPERTY ACQUISITION/DISPOSITION
If property acquisition/disposition by the City becomes necessary to accomplish the
objectives of this Plan, such acquisition/disposition will be carried out, without limitation,
in accordance with the Code of lowa.
L. RELOCATION
9
The City does not expect there to be any relocation required as part of the eligible urban
renewal projects; however, if any relocation is necessary, the City will follow all applicable
relocation requirements.
M. STATE AND LOCAL REQUIREMENTS
All provisions necessary to conform to state and local laws will be complied with by the
City and developers in implementing this Plan and its supporting documents.
N. URBAN RENEWAL PLAN AMENDMENTS
This Plan may be amended from time to time for a variety of reasons, including but not
limited to, change in the area, to add or change land use controls and regulations, to
modify goals or types of renewal activities, to add or change urban renewal projects, or
to amend property acquisition and disposition provisions. The City Council may amend
this Plan in accordance with applicable state law.
O. EFFECTIVE PERIOD
This Plan will become effective upon its adoption by the City Council and will remain in
effect as a Plan until it is repealed by the City Council but not to exceed twenty years from
the calendar year following the calendar year in which the municipality first certifies to the
county auditor the amount of any loans, advances, indebtedness, or bonds which qualify
for payment from the division of revenue provided in section 403.19. At all times, the use
of tax increment financing revenues (including the amount of loans, advances,
indebtedness, or bonds which qualify for payment from the division of revenue provided
in Section 403.19 of the Code of lowa) by the City for activities carried out under the
Urban Renewal Area shall be limited as deemed appropriate by the City Council and
consistent with all applicable provisions of law. The division of revenues shall continue on
the Urban Renewal Area, for the maximum period allowed by law.
P. SEVERABILITY CLAUSE
If any part of the Plan is determined to be invalid or unconstitutional, such invalidity or
unconstitutionality shall not affect the validity of the previously adopted Plan as a whole,
or any part of the Plan not determined to be invalid or unconstitutional.
