TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution of Adoption for the proposed Switch Homes Housing Urban
Renewal Area
DATE: June 27, 2023
Economic Development Director Jill Connors is recommending City Council adopt the
resolution approving the Urban Renewal Plan for the Switch Homes Housing Urban
Renewal Area (Area).
The proposed Plan will provide for the continued use of tools that encourage investment
and development activities in the Area and support revitalization within the Area and the
community at large.
The primary goal of the Plan is to stimulate, through public involvement and
commitment, private investment in new housing and residential development. This
proposed Area would result in improved roads and utilities in the Area, as well as
funding to assist with LMI family housing anywhere within the City at large.
Over the life of the Area, it is projected to generate approximately $6,981,771 in
increment with $2,660,055 going to affordable housing throughout the community and
$4,321,716 going to improvements in the Area. However, the Plan allows for a greater
contribution toward infrastructure or affordable housing in the event the Area would
produce more increment than currently anticipated.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

INTRODUCTION
This memorandum presents for City Council consideration a Resolution approving the
Urban Renewal Plan for the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area.
BACKGROUND
The Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area (the "Area") will be an urban renewal
area which allows the City of Dubuque to capture tax increment revenue from
improvements made in the Area in order to promote housing and residential
development activities. The Area will be created primarily for the development of a
residential district (Switch Homes) and infrastructure improvements including but limited
to installation of fiber conduit and vaults, sanitary, storm, and combined sewers,
waterworks and watermain extensions, and drainage conduits, channels, and levees. In
addition to funding the development of infrastructure, tax increment financing will be
used to benefit Low and Moderate Income (LMI) individuals in our community at large.
The proposed Urban Renewal Plan for the Area describes the specific use of tax
increment funds, reflecting the utilization of tax rebates, the construction of public
infrastructure, and other planned expenditures.
DISCUSSION
The primary goal of the Plan is to stimulate, through public involvement and
commitment, private investment in new housing and residential development as defined
by the Iowa Code Section 403.17(12). This proposed Area would result in improved
roads and utilities in the Area, as well as funding to assist with LMI family housing
anywhere within the City at large.
Over the life of the Area, it is projected to generate approximately $6,981,771 in
increment with $2,660,055 going to affordable housing throughout the community and
$4,321,716 going to improvements in the Area. See attached financial summary.
However, the Plan allows for a greater contribution toward infrastructure or affordable
housing in the event the Area would produce more increment than currently anticipated.
A consultation process was conducted with the affected taxing entities as required by
Chapter 403.5 of the Iowa Code. Prior to the meeting, the affected taxing bodies were
mailed copies of the proposed Urban Renewal Plan, and the Notice of Public Hearing.
The required consultation to discuss, question, or object to the findings in these
documents was held Tuesday, June 13, 2023. There were no representatives from the
affected taxing entities in attendance.
The notice of public hearing was published on June 23, 2023 in accordance with
publication requirements.
The proposed Urban Renewal Plan was presented for review and recommendation to
the Long Range Planning Advisory Commission on Wednesday, June 21, 2023. By a
vote of 4-0-1, with one Commission member abstaining, the Commission recommended
approval of the Urban Renewal Plan for the creation of the Switch Homes Housing
Urban Renewal District, finding it to be consistent with the 2017 Imagine Dubuque
Comprehensive Plan.
RECOMMENDATION/ ACTION STEP
I recommend that following the public hearing, the attached Resolution be approved to
adopt the Urban Renewal Plan for the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area.
The proposed Plan will provide for the continued 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 for the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area
("Plan" or "Urban Renewal Plan") has been developed to help local officials
promote economic development in the City of Dubuque ("City"). The primary goal
of the Plan is to stimulate, through public involvement and commitment, private
investment in new housing and residential development as defined by the Iowa
Code Section 403.17(12).
In order to achieve this objective, the City intends to undertake urban renewal
activities pursuant to the powers granted to it under Chapter 403 and Chapter 15A
of the Code of Iowa, as amended.
B. DESCRIPTION OF THE URBAN RENEWAL AREA
The Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area ("Area" or "Urban Renewal
Area") is illustrated in Attachments A, B-1, and B-2 and described in Attachment
D.
The City reserves the right to modify the boundaries of the Area at some future
date.
C. DISTRICT DESIGNATION
With the adoption of this Plan, the City of Dubuque designates this Urban Renewal
Area as an economic development area that is appropriate for the provision of
public improvements related to housing and residential development.
D. BASE VALUE
If the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area is legally established and debt
is certified prior to December 1, 2024, the taxable valuation within the Urban
Renewal Area as of January 1, 2023, will be considered the "base valuation." If
debt is not certified until a later date, the "base value" will be the assessed value
of the taxable property in the Urban Renewal Area as of January 1 of the calendar
year preceding the calendar year in which the City first certifies the amount of any
debt.
-3-
E. DEVELOPMENT PLAN
The City Council has approved a general plan for the physical development of the
City as a whole, outlined in the 2017 City of Dubuque Comprehensive Plan that
was adopted by the City Council on September 18, 2017. The goals, objectives,
and projects in this Urban Renewal Plan are consistent with the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
The Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area is zoned: R-1 (Single Family
Residential) and R-4 Multi -Family Residential. See Attachment B for details.
This Urban Renewal Plan does not in any way replace the City's current land use
planning or zoning regulation process.
For details on current and proposed land use, see attached land use maps,
Attachments B-1 and B-2.
F. RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT
The City's objective in the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area is to
promote new housing and residential development.
When the City undertakes a project to provide or aid in the provision of public
improvements related to housing and residential development in an economic
development area, the City must assure that the project will include assistance for
LMI family housing. Unless a reduction is approved by the Iowa Economic
Development Authority, the amount to be provided for LMI housing shall be either
equal to or greater than the percentage of the original project cost that is equal to
the percentage of LMI residents for Dubuque County. LMI families are those whose
incomes do not exceed 80% of the median Dubuque County income. LMI families
include single person households.
The percentage of LMI families living in Dubuque County, as determined by the
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development using Section 8 guidelines
is currently 38.1 %. Not less than 38.1 % of incremental revenues will be used by
the City to provide LMI family housing assistance.
The assistance for LMI family housing may be provided anywhere within the City
and may include, but is not limited to:
1. Lots for LMI housing within or outside the urban renewal area;
-4-
2. Construction of LMI housing within or outside the urban renewal area;
3. Grants, credits or other direct assistance to LMI families living within or
outside the urban renewal area, but within the area of operation of the
municipality; and
4. Payments to a LMI housing fund established by the City to be expended
for one or more of the above purposes, including matching funds for any
state or federal moneys used for such purposes.
G. AREA OBJECTIVES
Renewal activities are designed to provide opportunities, incentives, and sites for
new residential development within the district and to provide housing assistance
to LMI families.
More specific objectives for development within the Switch Homes Housing Urban
Renewal Area are as follows:
1. To alleviate and prevent conditions of unemployment and a shortage of
housing; and that it is accordingly necessary to assist and retain local
industries and commercial enterprises to strengthen and revitalize the
economy of the State of Iowa and the City of Dubuque.
2. To stimulate through public action and commitment, private investment in
new residential development.
3. To plan for and provide sufficient land for residential development in a
manner that is efficient from the standpoint of providing municipal services.
4. To help finance the cost of installation of sanitary, storm and combined
sewers by the Developer, installation of fiber conduits and vaults, as well
as other public improvements in support of new housing development.,
5. To provide a more marketable and attractive investment climate.
6. To improve the housing conditions and housing opportunities for LMI
families.
-5-
H. TYPE OF RENEWAL ACTIVITIES
To meet the objectives of this Urban Renewal Plan and to encourage the
development of the Urban Renewal Area, the City intends to utilize the powers
conferred under Chapter 403 and Chapter 15A, Code of Iowa including, but not
limited to, tax increment financing. Activities may include:
1. To undertake and carry out urban renewal projects through the
execution of contracts and other instruments.
2. To arrange for or cause to be provided the construction of public
infrastructure including but not limited to installation of sanitary, storm,
and combined sewers, curb underdrain, fiber conduit, and vaults, and
construction of sidewalk and sidewalk ramps in connection with urban
renewal projects.
3. To finance programs which will directly benefit housing conditions and
promote the availability of housing affordable to LMI persons in the
community.
4. To make loans, grants, or rebates to private persons to promote
housing projects on such terms as may be determined by the City
Council.
5. To borrow money and to provide security therefor.
6. To make or have made surveys and plans necessary for the
implementation of the urban renewal program or specific urban
renewal projects.
7. To use tax increment financing for a number of objectives, including
but not limited to, achieving a more marketable and competitive land
offering price and providing for necessary physical improvements and
infrastructure.
8. To use any or all other powers granted by the Urban Renewal Act to
develop and provide for improved economic conditions for the City of
Dubuque and the State of Iowa.
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 Iowa in
furtherance of the objectives of this Urban Renewal Plan.
-6-
I. PROPOSED PROJECT
The first proposed urban renewal project involves the construction public
improvements related to the creation of residential development in the Area.
Certain of the public improvements are expected to be constructed by the
Developer, with the balance being constructed by the City. The expected public
improvements and their estimated costs are as follows.
Public Improvements Estimated Costs
Sanitary, Storm, & Combined Sewers
Drainage Conduits, Channels, Levees
Grading & Paving
Street Lighting Fixtures including Fiber
$3,227,990
$780,057
$2,571,039
$475,050
Sewer Pump Station
$450,000
Underground Utilities
$473,279
Sidewalks
$638,199
Public Drives
$197,802
Waterworks, Watermains, & Extensions
$1,483,245
Tree Removal
$183,000
Traffic Control
$125,000
Total
$10,604,661
The City expects to provide assistance to the Developer in the form of property tax
rebates of potential incremental taxes, under the terms of a rebate agreement
between the City and the Developer. Under the proposal, some of the incremental
property tax generated from the new houses constructed within the Urban Renewal
Area pursuant to Iowa Code Section 403.19 is expected to be rebated to the
Developer (in an amount not to exceed the Developer's certified costs of
constructing certain of the required public improvements or such other amount as
may be determined by the City Council) for a period of time to be determined by
the City Council. These rebates will not be general obligations of the City but will
be payable solely from incremental property taxes generated by the project.
The City will set aside not less than the required LMI percentage (38.1 %) of the
incremental taxes generated by the project and use those funds to support LMI
family housing anywhere in the community. The remaining incremental taxes will
-7-
be available to the City to distribute in accordance with Iowa Code §403.19.

housing throughout the community and $4,321,716 going to improvements in the
Area. See attached financial summary. However, the Plan allows for a much
greater contribution toward infrastructure in the event the Area would produce
more increment than currently anticipated.
K. PROPERTY ACQUISITION/DISPOSITION

is anticipated at this time. However, if any property acquisition/disposition becomes

be limited as deemed appropriate by the City Council and consistent with all
applicable provisions of law.

The Honorable Mayor and City Council

Dubuque, IA 52001
SUBJECT: Creation of the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal District
Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
Introduction
The Long Range Planning Advisory Commission has reviewed the proposed Urban Renewal
Plan for the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal District for consistency with the 2017
Imagine Dubuque Comprehensive Plan in accordance with Section 15-2-13G of the City Code.
This review took place at a regular meeting of the Commission on June 21, 2023.
Background
On June 5, 2023, the City Council approved a Resolution of Necessity finding that the proposed
area was an economic development area and appropriate for urban renewal activities. Staff
prepared an Urban Renewal Plan for the area as per the directive of the City Council.
State Code requires the planning commission of a community to review the proposed plan and
make a recommendation to the City Council. Ian Hatch, Assistant Economic Development
Director, attended the Long Range Planning Advisory Commission meeting and presented
information provided by Jill Connors, Economic Development Director, for the proposed plan for
the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal District.
Discussion
The Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area will be an urban renewal area which allows
the City of Dubuque to capture tax increment revenue from improvements made in the area in
order to promote economic development activities. The area will be created primarily to
facilitate residential development and related infrastructure improvements.
This proposed creation of the Switch Homes Housing Urban Renewal Area will allow the City of
Dubuque to capture tax increment revenue from improvements made in the area. The City
intends to use a portion of these captured funds to reimburse itself for certain public
infrastructure improvements required under a Development Agreement by and between
the City of Dubuque, Iowa and Switch Homes of Dubuque, LLC.
The property is owned by the Switch Homes of Dubuque, LLC and is currently zoned R-1
(Single family Residential) and R-4 (Multi -Family Residential), which is in alignment with the
Service People Integrity Responsibility Innovation Teamwork
proposed residential development. It is appropriate to consider this property as part of the City
of Dubuque's Urban Renewal Program.
Ian Hatch outlined the ways the proposed urban renewal plan aligns with the Comprehensive
Plan, including:
• "Foster partnerships with private and non-profit housing developers to provide
affordable, quality housing units."
• "Foster the development of new and additional housing products in suitable locations
throughout the City."
The Commission reviewed the Urban Renewal Plan and found it to be consistent with the 2017
Imagine Dubuque Comprehensive Plan.
Recommendation
Commission member Ward abstained from the vote. By a vote of 4-0-1, the Commission
recommends approval of the Urban Renewal Plan for the creation of the Switch Homes Housing
Urban Renewal District, as it is consistent with the 2017 Imagine Dubuque Comprehensive
Plan.
Respectfully submitted,
Alan Vincent, Chairperson
Long Range Planning Advisory Commission
