INTRODUCTION
This memorandum presents for City Council consideration a Resolution of Necessity that
finds that: 1) an Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan for the Dubuque Industrial
Center Economic Development District ("District") is both necessary and appropriate; and
2) sets a public hearing on the proposed amendment for March 17, 2025.
The proposed Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan ("Urban Renewal Plan") for
the District would remove property from Subarea B of the District.
BACKGROUND
The original Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development District was created on
May 2, 1988. The District is an urban renewal area which allows the City of Dubuque to
capture tax increment revenue from improvements made in the District in order to
promote economic development activities. The original area included the Dubuque
Industrial Center (known as Subarea A) and has been expanded several times over the
years to include Dubuque Industrial Center West, the County Farm, the Bergfeld Farm,
the North Siegert Farm, the Rail Site, the South Siegert Farm, the Graf Farm, McFadden
Farms, small adjacent parcels, and several County -owned parcels (known as Subareas
B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, and Q).
Before a municipality can exercise the authority conferred by Iowa Code Chapter 403
Urban Renewal, a Resolution of Necessity must be adopted finding that the area being
Page 381 of 797
considered for urban renewal district designation is either a slum, blighted or economic
development area and that the rehabilitation, conservation, redevelopment, development,
or a combination thereof, of the area is necessary in the interest of the public health,
safety or welfare of the residents of the city.
DISCUSSION
This proposed amendment of the Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development
District would result in the removal of property from Subarea B. Due to legislation in 1995,
the collection of tax increment in urban renewal areas designated for economic
development purposes is limited to 20 years. Subarea B of the District in which this parcel
is located had its "TIF sunset" in 2018. If the parcel were to remain in Subarea B, the City
would be unable to provide full future economic development incentives. The property will
still remain within the Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development District Urban
Renewal Area.
The attached Resolution directs staff to prepare a Version 2025.1 Amended and Restated
Urban Renewal Plan for the Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development District.
Additionally, staff is required to hold a consultation process, required by law, with the
affected taxing entities concerning the proposed Plan.
A City Council public hearing on the 2025.1 Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan
will be scheduled for March 17, 2025. The public notice will be published four to twenty
days before the meeting to allow for the appropriate publication requirements. This will
allow time for preparation of the Plan and the consultation process with the taxing entities.
RECOMMENDATION / ACTION STEP
I recommend the City Council adopt the attached Resolution of Necessity that begins the
process of drafting the Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan for Dubuque
Industrial Center Economic Development District.
