HOW TO USE THIS POLICY BUDGET DOCUMENT
PURPOSE
The Policy Budget defines goals and objectives for all City departments and activities, relates them to
cost and resource requirements and attempts to establish measures for evaluating accomplishment.
Specific improvement packages are developed and included in the Policy Budget for alternative funding
and service levels. The Policy Budget document shows the budget by line item for each Department
and provides a basis for fiscal control once the budget is adopted.
The Policy Budget emphasizes objectives, accomplishments, and alternative funding and service levels
and is intended to keep the attention of the City Council and public on the major policy decisions
involving what services the City government will provide, who will pay for them, and the implications of
such decisions.
FORMAT
The Policy Budget is organized by Department/Division and provides detail for all activities that make
up each Department/Division. Each Department/Division tab includes the following information:
1) Department/Division Financial Summary: The budget highlights portion of the Department
Summary reflects total expenses for the maintenance level budget (cost to continue at the same
level of service) and approved improvement packages for all activities within the Department by
expenditure category (employee expense, supplies and services, machinery and equipment,
and debt service), and the funding sources that pay those expenses. The property tax portion of
the funding is reflected, noting the increase or decrease from the prior years adopted budget.
For Departments which are self supporting (i.e. Water, Water Resources & Recovery Center,
Refuse and Salt Operations (part of Public Works), Media Service, Transit, Parking, Stormwater
(part of Engineering)), the net operating surplus/deficit is reflected, noting the increase or
decrease in the fund from the prior years adopted budget.
This summary displays all Improvement Packages submitted by Department/Division
Managers, with a notation of whether they were recommended by the City Manager, and then
approved by the City Council. Those noted with a `YES' were added to the maintenance level
budget and are reflected in the Department Funding Summary and those noted with a `NO' were
not approved.
And finally, this summary explains significant line item detail by expenditure category, notable
revenue changes, and miscellaneous information regarding the maintenance level budget.
These are the review notes prior to adding any improvement packages.
2) Memo Addressing Budget Issue (optional): If there is an important budget issue that needs
further explanation, a memo will be provided.
3) Department's Organizational Chart (optional): Shows how a Department is structured.
Usually included for larger more complex Departments.

activity statement and a matrix for each activity which includes activity objectives, relationship to
City Council Goals & Priorities, and key performance indicators (KPIs). Performance measures

funding yield the expected results. Icons for each KPI visually indicate how well an objective is

This improvement package request is for an intern (0.25 FTE, NA-38) to work 10 hours per week in
order to update and manage the website domain and email hosting for the alltogetherdubuque.com

$5,000 match from the Arts & Cultural Affairs budget, to create the branding and website design with
the intent to highlight Creatives and their work as well as to provide the community access to art in
Dubuque. As part of the City's Master Plan, the working group "Branding and Communication" worked
to create the alltogetherdubuque.com website and subsequent branding which aligns with the goals set
out by the City's Arts and Culture Master Plan.
This request supports the City Council goal of"Partnership for a Better Dubuque: Building Our
Community that is Viable, Livable, and Equitable" by creating connections and partnerships for artists,
businesses and the community.

This improvement package request from The Dream Center is for an additional $187,000 to sponsor 20
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 a long-lasting impact. The City of Dubuque's support would allow focus on
continuing to impact children of low-income and working families.Becoming a licensed childcare facility
means access to affordable childcare for working families. The program would be established to assist
low-income families that do not meet the Department of Human Services requirements for financial
childcare assistance but cannot afford the annual program fees. The City recently funded a $276,000
