INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to request a City Council work session on the
Dubuque Regional Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan.
BACKGROUND
Working with member cities and counties, regional and state agencies, the East Central
Intergovernmental Association (ECIA) is developing a plan to expand and improve the
bicycle and pedestrian network as part of the regional transportation system. More
information on the plan can be found at the following link at
https://eciatrans.orq/proiects/bikepedestrianplan.cfm.
DISCUSSION
The Dubuque Regional Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan is being led by Laura Carstens and
Dan Fox of ECIA with partners from across Dubuque County and the Dubuque
metropolitan area, including City of Dubuque staff. Public meetings for the plan were held
in Dubuque and Dyersville, and a public survey is taking online feedback.
To create a plan that accurately reflects the needs of the region, ECIA needs input from
members of the community and leaders who represent them.
REQUESTED ACTION
I respectfully request a City Council work session to provide information about the
Dubuque Regional Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan and give Council an opportunity to
share their input on March 20, 2023 at 6:00 p.m.
