CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA
Fiscal Year 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
Attached is the Fiscal Year 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). State law requires that a five-year CIP be adopted by the City Council
after a public hearing. The required CIP public hearing will be held April 28, 2025, at the same time as the public hearing on the Fiscal Year 2026
Operating Budget.
The CIP, as the plan for the City’s physical development effort, attempts to address a variety of needs that the City must meet if it is to maintain its
physical facilities, meet its service commitments and provide for its future development. The CIP adoption reflects the City’s comprehensive plan
and the goals and priorities established by the City Council and are shown in each of the State mandated budget program areas.
With the pledge of the $1.1 trillion dollar federal infrastructure package and other opportunities to compete for grants, the City was successful in
obtaining several large grants an now will be implementing those projects, especially the Bee Branch Flood Mitigation Project, 16th Street Pumping
Station, and the 14th Street Overpass project.
A particular emphasis in this five-year CIP is modernization, maintenance, and extension of the City sanitary sewer system to accommodate the
growth the City is currently experiencing, and anticipating in the next few years and beyond. In the current fiscal year (FY 2025), the City will have
allocated $40,809,198 and in this new five-year CIP, the City will have allocated an additional $90,406,304 for a total of $131,215,502 from January
2025 through December 2029.
The Fiscal Year 2026 CIP budget recommendation of $91,803,749 is a 3.44% increase from the Fiscal Year 2025 CIP budget of $88,753,825.
The City will issue $152,147,710 in new debt in the recommended five-year CIP, mostly for fire equipment replacement, fire station
improvements, fire station expansion, airport improvements, Chaplain Schmitt Island Iowa Amphitheater, reimagine Comiskey park development,
neighborhood park developments, Federal Building renovations, solid waste collection vehicles, sanitary sewer improvements, water improvements,
stormwater improvements, parking improvements, and renovation of Five Flags, for a total of $152,147,710 of debt in FY 2026-2030. The City will
retire $139,519,604 of existing debt, increasing the amount of City debt by $12,628,106. By far the greatest use of debt over the next five
years is for sanitary sewer maintenance and improvements ($78,399,027).
For Fiscal Year 2026, the use of the statutory debt limit would be 33.50%, and by the end of the Recommended 5-Year Capital
Improvement Program (CIP) budget in Fiscal Year 2030, the City of Dubuque would be at 32.90% of the statutory debt limit.

In this budget recommendation, the Mayor and City Council are currently reviewing, projections out 10 years to Fiscal Year 2035 show the City of
Dubuque at 19.66% of the statutory debt limit. This is an improvement on the debt reduction plan adopted in August 2015, that first began
implementation in Fiscal Year 2016.
In the extremely low interest rate environment prior to 2015, the City had been increasing the use of debt to accomplish the projects that need to be
done. To have any success, a community must have a sound infrastructure. The Mayor and City Council has recognized the infrastructure issues
Dubuque faces and has been responsive. While there was some criticism of City use of debt to deal with those infrastructure challenges, that
criticism fails to recognize that not financing the needed infrastructure maintenance and improvements is also a form of debt that is passed down to
future generations. This was a strategic decision by the City Council realizing that infrastructure investment just gets more expensive over time for
these reasons: a) the older a piece of infrastructure gets and the more it is allowed to deteriorate increases costs; b) the longer the wait to invest in
infrastructure the costs are increased by inflation; and c) If the investment in infrastructure is not made in this low interest rate environment this
investment will eventually need to be made when interest rates are higher, thereby increasing costs. However, beginning in FY 2016 the City
Council at their 2015 Goal Setting Session debt reduction was adopted as a High Priority. So the amount of outstanding debt began to decrease and
in Fiscal Year 2026 the City will be issuing slightly more debt ($4,698,236) than is retired and many projects will become pay-as-you-go. However, in
2022 a fourth reason was created for considering using debt for infrastructure projects and that is the massive amount of federal grant money that
was being made available.Most of these grants require matching dollars and most require that the engineering work already be financed and
completed to make the projects shovel ready.
The debt principal outstanding projected as of June 30, 2025, is currently $281,085,184. The breakdown of the debt principle outstanding as of
June 30, 2025, is as follows:
Debt Obligation

There was a 0.53% increase in assessed value effective January 1, 2024, which is the assessment the Fiscal Year 2026 statutory debt limit is based
on. The statutory debt limit effective June 30, 2026 is $323,629,585. The City will be at 33.50% of statutory debt limit by June 30, 2026. In FY 16
the City was at 86.13% of statutory debt limit, so 33.50% in Fiscal Year 2026 is a 53.04% decrease in use of the statutory debt limit.
The ten year history of the City’s use of the statutory debt limit is as follows:

Retired Debt Versus New Debt
The total City indebtedness as of June 30, 2026, is projected to be $167,789,201 (33.50% of statutory debt limit). The total City indebtedness as of
June 30, 2015, was $295,561,181 (90% of statutory debt limit). The City is projected to have $8,483,725 more in debt as of June 30, 2026.
The combination of reduced debt and increased utility rates partially reflects the movement to a more "pay as you go" strategy, which could lead to
larger tax and fee increases than with the use of debt. In Fiscal Year 2020, the City had $5,908,200 forgiven of the Bee Branch Upper Bee Branch
Loan on June 30, 2020 which increased principal payments reflected.
Based on the timing of projects, the City issued very little debt in FY23 ($0.48 million) and FY24 ($7.99 million), so the FY25 debt issuance
was a combination of three years of debt funding for projects. In that three-year period, the City retired $60.72 million in debt and issued $84.11
million in debt. The following chart shows the amount of retired debt as compared to new debt. The new debt includes new debt issuances as well
as draw downs on existing state revolving fund loans:

Statutory Debt and Total Debt
In August 2015, the Mayor and City Council adopted a debt reduction strategy which targeted retiring more debt each year than was issued by the
City. The recommended FY 2026 budget will exceed that target in FY 2026, FY 2027, and FY 2028 due to issuing necessary debt for Five Flags,
Fire Equipment and Station Improvements, Central Avenue Corridor Improvements, Water Lead Lines, PFAS, Old Mill Road Lift Station and Force
Main, Catfish Creek Sewershed Interceptor Sewer Improvements, Track Line Sanitary Sewer Reconstruction, Force Main Stabilization, and Park
Improvements.However, Fiscal Year 2029 and Fiscal Year 2030 will meet the target. You can see that the Mayor and City Council have
significantly impacted the City’s use of the statutory debt limit established by the State of Iowa. In Fiscal Year 2015, the City of Dubuque
used 90% of the statutory debt limit. In this budget recommendation, the Mayor and City Council are currently reviewing for Fiscal Year
2026, the use of the statutory debt limit would be 33.50%, and by the end of the recommended 5-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
budget in Fiscal Year 2030, the City of Dubuque would be at 32.90% of the statutory debt limit. Projections out 10 years to Fiscal Year
2035 show the City of Dubuque at 19.66% of the statutory debt limit. This is an improvement on the debt reduction plan adopted in August
2015, that first began implementation in Fiscal Year 2016.

General Fund Reserves
The City maintains a general fund reserve, or working balance, to allow for unforeseen expenses that may occur. Moody's Investor Service
recommends a 35% General Fund Operating Reserve for “AA” rated cities.
In January 2025, Moody’s Investor Services affirmed the Aa2 credit rating on general obligation bonds. Moody’s credit analysis states,
“the City of Dubuque’s local economy benefits from its role as a regional economic center, with solid resident income and full value per
capita. Financial operations are strong and will remain so despite declines in fund balance over the next few years, as it expends funds
from the pandemic. Long-term liabilities and fixed cost ratios are moderate and will remain so despite future borrowing needs.”
According to Moody’s, the Aa2 issuer rating for the City of Dubuque’s bonds reflects the city’s healthy economic base, which serves as a
regional economic center. Other rationale stated for the rating include full value per capita and adjusted resident income are solid at
around $109,000 and 98% respectively, though weaker than Aa peers, in part because of a large student population, available fund
balance was strong at around 60% of revenue at the close of fiscal 2023 (year-end June 30), and cash was stronger at 85% of revenue.
The City’s available fund balance will likely remain well over 45%, despite some planned draws in fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025 to spend
down federal funds from the pandemic. Despite the state adopting new property tax restrictions, revenue raising flexibility remains strong
because the City maintains significant margin in its employee benefits fund and is not utilizing its emergency levy. The long-term
liabilities ratio will likely remain well under 300% inclusive of the current issuances and future borrowing plans, and fixed-costs ratio will
remain well below 20%.
In July 2023, Moody’s Investor Service upgraded the City’s outstanding general obligation bonds from Aa3 to Aa2, as well as the outstanding Sales
Tax Increment Revenue bonds from A2 to A1. Notable credit factors include strong financial operations and ample revenue-raising flexibility, which
has resulted in steadily improved available fund balance and cash. The City serves as a regional economic center and its regional economic growth
rate has outpaced the nation over the past five years.
In November of 2022, Moody’s Investors Service (“Moodys”) released a new rating methodology for cities and counties. Two significant changes
result from the new methodology; cities are now assigned an issuer rating meant to convey the creditworthiness of the issuer as a whole without
regard to a specific borrowing, and business-type enterprise funds are now being considered together with general fund revenues and balances in
the determination of financial performance.
Under the new methodology, there are two metrics that contribute to financial performance. Available Fund Balance Ratio (“AFBR”) = (Available
Fund Balance + Net Current Assets/Revenue) and Liquidity Ratio (“LR”) = (Unrestricted Cash/Revenue). For Aa credits, AFBR ranges from 25-35,
and LR ranges from 30-40%.
The City was evaluated by Moody’s under the old methodology in May of 2022 in connection to its annual issuance of bonds. At that time, Moody’s
calculated the City’s AFBR to be 45.2%, and its LR to be 59.8%. The balances used in these calculations were likely elevated due to unspent ARPA
funds. The change in methodology will now consider revenues and net assets from business-type activities in these calculations. As such, the City’s
general obligation rating will now be directly impacted by the financial performance of enterprise funds. Establishing rates and charges adequate to
provide both debt service coverage and significant liquidity will be necessary to maintain the City’s ratings.

In May 2021, Moody’s Investor Service upgraded the City’s Water Enterprise’s outstanding revenue bonds from A1 to A2 and affirmed the Aa3 credit
rating on general obligation bonds. Notable credit factors include a sizable tax base, a wealth and income profile that is slightly below similarly rated
peers, and increased financial position that will decline in fiscal years 2021 and 2022 and somewhat elevated debt and pension liabilities.
These credit ratings are affirmation of the sound fiscal management of the mayor and city council, put Dubuque in a strong position to capitalize on
favorable financial markets, borrow at low interest rate when necessary, and make critical investments in the community.

The City of Dubuque has historically adopted a general fund reserve policy as part of the Fiscal and Budget Policy Guidelines which is adopted
each year as part of the budget process. During Fiscal Year 2013, the City adopted a formal Fund Reserve Policy which states the City may
continue to add to the General Fund minimum balance of 10% when additional funds are available until 20% of Net General Fund Operating Cost is
reached. During Fiscal Year 2024, the General Fund minimum balance was increased to 25%.
After all planned expenditures in FY 2025, the City of Dubuque will have a general fund reserve of 44.41% of general fund revenues as a
percent of general fund revenues computed by the accrual basis or 58.25% of general fund, debt service, and enterprise fund revenues as
computed by the accrual basis methodology now used by Moody’s Investors Service. The general fund reserve cash balance is projected
to be $81,140,352 on June 30, 2025 as compared to the general fund reserve balance on an accrual basis of $38,026,193. The general fund
reserve balance on an accrual basis exceeds 27% in FY 2025, which is the margin of error used to ensure the City always has a general
fund reserve of at least 25% as computed by Moody’s Investors Service.

In Fiscal Year 2017, the City had projected reaching this consistent and sustainable 20% reserve level in Fiscal Year 2022. In fact, the City met the
20% reserve requirement in FY 2017, five years ahead of schedule and has sustained a greater than 20% reserve.

State Revolving Fund Sponsorship Projects and Green Project Loans
The City uses State Revolving Fund (SRF) loans for water and sanitary sewer projects whenever possible because of the very low annual interest
rate of 1.75% with an annual servicing fee of 0.25%.
In 2009, legislation was passed in Iowa that allows water utilities that issue debt through the Clean Water State Revolving Fund Program to sponsor
and help finance other water quality improvement (CWSRF) projects within or outside its service limits. This new funding mechanism, called Water
Resource Restoration Sponsored Projects, will provide cities, counties, local watershed organizations, watershed management authorities, county
conservation boards, and soil and water conservation districts a funding source to construct improvements throughout a watershed that keep
sediment, nutrients, chemicals and other pollutants out of streams and lakes.
Repayment of a standard Clean Water SRF (CWSRF) loan includes the repayment of the original loan amount, the principal, and the cost to finance
the loan, interest, and fees. On a CWSRF loan with a sponsored project, the financing costs are reduced by the amount of the cost of the sponsored
project improvements. Figure 1 shows a comparison between a standard CWSRF loan and a CWSRF loan with a sponsorship project. As shown,
the total cost to the utility (the total of loan repayments) remains unchanged as the cost of funding for the sponsorship project is offset by a reduction
in loan financing costs. In essence, two water quality projects are completed for the price of one.

After three years of the State of Iowa being unsuccessful in completing one of these modified loans, the City of Dubuque had the first
successful application for the state when, in April 2013, the City was awarded $9.4 million of the interest paid on the Water and Resource
Recovery Center to be used to reconstruct over 70 Green Alleys in the Bee Branch Watershed. The principal for the Water & Resource
Recovery Center Upgrade was increased from $64,885,000 to $75,145,579 and the interest rate plus annual servicing fee was decreased from
3.25% to 2.00% to add the Green Alley sponsorship project. This reduction allowed for increased proceeds and resulted in a true interest cost of
1.96% and gross borrowing savings of $11.4 million. The State of Iowa has discontinued the sponsored project option for future debt
issuances.
The Federal Fiscal Years 2010, 2011, and 2012 State Revolving Fund capitalization grants included requirements for certain percentages of the
funds to be allocated for green projects. Each green infrastructure project receives a portion of loan forgiveness not to exceed 30%. In June 2015,
the City of Dubuque Upper Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project (Upper Bee Branch Project) qualified for a Green Project Loan from the CWSRF
Program in the amount of $29,541,000. The loan includes a principal forgiveness provision. The amount of the loan to be forgiven is 20% of the
total loan disbursements made under the loan agreement. The amount of the loan that was forgiven in June 2020 was $5,908,200. The actual
true interest cost for total funds received was not the 2.00% borrowing rate (1.75% interest and 0.25% administrative fee), but just 0.07%
after reflecting the receipt of interest free funds (forgiven portion).
Then, in August 2017, the City was awarded $1.4 million in funding for improvements with the Catfish Creek Watershed through the State of Iowa
Water Resource Restoration Sponsored Project program as part of the City State Revolving Fund loan for the Upper Bee Branch Creek Restoration
Project. The funding for the $1.4 million in improvements will come from the interest payments on the City's Upper Bee Branch SRF loan. The Upper
Bee Branch Creek SRF loan principal was increased to $30,941,000 and the interest rate plus the annual servicing fee was reduced from
2.00% to 1.43%. On a gross basis, the borrowing costs for the new loan were $1.38 million less than the original loan.
In May 2018, the City was awarded $1.0 million in funding for pervious green alley improvements with the Bee Branch Creek and Catfish Creek
Watersheds through the State of Iowa Water Resource Restoration Sponsored Project program as part of the City State Revolving Fund loan for the
Upper Bee Branch Creek Railroad Culverts Project. The funding for the $1.0 million in improvements will come from the interest payments on the
City's Upper Bee Branch Railroad Culvert SRF loan. The Upper Bee Branch Creek Railroad Culvert SRF loan principal was increased to
$17,387,000 and the interest rate plus the annual servicing fee was reduced from 2.00% to 1.43%. On a gross basis, the borrowing costs
for the new loan were $1.05 million less than the original loan.
In February 2019, the City was awarded $276,300 in funding for Eagle Point Park Environmental Restoration through the State of Iowa Water
Resource Restoration Sponsored Project program as part of the City State Revolving Fund loan for the Kerper Boulevard Sanitary Sewer Project.
The funding for the $276,300 in improvements will come from the interest payments on the City's Kerper Boulevard Sanitary Sewer SRF loan. The
Iowa Finance Authority now requires that sponsorship projects are included in the initial loan amount so that the repayment schedule does not have
to be adjusted. On a gross basis, the borrowing costs for the new loan were $278,000 less than if there was not a sponsorship project
included.

Fiscal Year 2026 will be the nineteenth fiscal year that the Stormwater Fund is recommended to be fully funded by stormwater user fees. The
General Fund will continue to provide funding for the stormwater fee subsidies that provide a 50% subsidy for the stormwater fee charged to
property tax exempt properties, low-to-moderate income residents, and a 75% subsidy for the stormwater fee charged to residential farms. The FY
2026 Stormwater User Fee is proposed to increase from $10.50 per SFU to $11.03 per SFU, a 5.00% increase.

The Stormwater Utility was formed on July 1, 2003, to update and expand the City’s aging infrastructure, comply with the National Pollution
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit, and implement the various elements of the
2001 Drainage Basin Master Plan Stormwater Management Plan (amended in 2013), which outlined improvements in both the Catfish Creek
and Bee Branch watersheds. The flood mitigation improvements in the Catfish Creek Watershed have been completed. The improvements in
the Bee Branch Watershed are part of the multi-phased, fiscally responsible, holistic Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project which will
mitigate flooding, improve water quality, stimulate investment, and enhance the quality of life. The City’s has been able to garner support from
- xvi -
Page 21 of 706
local, state, and federal partners with over $169 million in outside funding to help offset the cost of the overall $250 million project. Since 2001,
the City has made steady progress on the various phases of the project.
The phases of the Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project are as follows:
Phase Description Status
1 Carter Road Detention Basin Complete
2 West 32nd Street Detention Basin Complete
3 Historic Millwork District Complete
4 Lower Bee Branch Creek Restoration Complete
5 Flood Mitigation Gate & Pump Replacement Under Construction
6 Impervious Surface Reduction 1/3 of alleys converted to “Green Alleys”
7 Upper Bee Branch Creek Restoration/Railroad Culverts Complete
8 22nd Street Storm Sewer Improvements Complete from Elm Street to N. Main
9 Flood Mitigation Maintenance Facility Site Cleanup/Preparation
10 North End Storm Sewer Improvements Initiate Design in 2028
11 Water Plant Flood Protection Initiate Design in 2024
12 17th Street Storm Sewer Improvements Complete from Elm St. to Heeb St.
Each of the 12 phases provides some incremental benefit. But the risk of flash flooding remains until all improvements are implemented. But it is
also true that with the completion of each subsequent phase, the threat of flash flood damage is lessened and the resulting damage will be
mitigated. When complete, it is expected to prevent an estimated $582 million in damages over its 100-year design life.
When the City Council adopted Ordinance 21-12 (passed and approved on March 7, 2012), they established that the stormwater utility fee would
increase to $9.00 per month on July 1, 2016 in order to fund the operational and capital costs of the public stormwater management system,
including improvements such as the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project. But later in 2012, the Iowa General Assembly created the Flood
Mitigation Program which provides funding for flood mitigation projects undertaken by local governments such as the City of Dubuque. Managed by
the Iowa Flood Mitigation Board, the funding source established involves taking a portion of the incremental growth of State sales tax revenue
collected within a city and diverting from the State General Fund to cities approved for the funding. Having updated the Drainage Basin Master Plan
in the fall of 2013, which outlined the improvements associated with the 12-phase Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project, the City was
successful in securing $98.5 million in State sales tax increment funding. With the infusion of funding, the City Council adopted Ordinance 16-14
(passed and approved on March 5, 2014) establishing that the stormwater utility fee did not reach $9.00 per month until July 1, 2021, five years later
than later than previously scheduled.

CIP FORMAT
The format for the Fiscal Year 2026-2030 CIP is substantially the same as previous fiscal years. First, an index referencing the 2026-2030 Capital
Improvement Budget follows the budget message. The index identifies each capital improvement first by city department and then by all applicable
State programs as a subcategory under each department. The index serves as a quick reference for each CIP, and the far right hand column shows
the page number of each project. Secondly, a separate project page is provided to show the detail for each individual project. These projects pages
are also arranged first by city department and then by State program as a subcategory within each department.
As in previous CIP budget documents, each detailed project page identifies the city department, the state program, project title, account code
(consisting of program number, department number, fund and capital project number), and total project cost. The project page then shows any
funds expended for the project in Fiscal Year 2024 and the adopted budget in Fiscal Year 2025. In Section A of the project form entitled
“Expenditure Items”, project costs are shown by major expenditure item (i.e., Design and Engineering, Land and Right-of-Way Purchase,
Construction and Other Expense). In Section B, entitled “Project Financing”, the project funding is presented by major revenue source (i.e., General
Fund, Sales Tax Fund, Water Depreciation Fund, Sanitary Sewer Construction Fund, and Road Use Tax Fund). In Section C, entitled “Impact –
Operations,” the dollar impact on operations in terms of greater or lesser operating costs and/or greater or lesser revenue is provided when
available. Lastly, there is a narrative section, which provides a description of the project, a justification for the project and, where appropriate, how it
relates to other projects or plans. A small map may also be provided to further identify the location of the project.
Each detailed project page identifies the budget for each fiscal year in the next five years. There is a sixth column labeled "2031". This column is
included to show that the project does not end in the next five years and that additional budget will be needed to fully complete the project. The
"2031" column will show the total remaining estimate for the project, unless the project is annual. This column could also be known as "Beyond
Fiscal Year 2030." If a project is annual, the "2031" column will only show one years worth of budget.
Lastly, there is a section in the detailed project pages called "First Year Submitted". This information represents the year the capital improvement
project was first submitted for consideration. This is not the first year that the capital project was adopted for funding, but instead represents the first
year a staff member identified a need for the project and created a CIP to present to the City Manager.

CONCLUSION
The Capital Improvement Program represents the City of Dubuque’s commitment to a maintenance and physical development plan for the next
five years. The first year of the five-year CIP goes into the budget for next year and deserves the most attention. As you know, the CIP is
updated each year so that City Council will have an opportunity in the next year to change Fiscal Year 2027 through Fiscal Year 2030 projects, as
well as to add projects for Fiscal Year 2031.
A ranking system was established in Fiscal Year 2019 to more readily identify capital projects that directly meet City Council Goals and Priorities
and address City needs. This ranking process also included several collaborative meetings with staff to determine which projects should be
recommended for funding with the limited resources available.

The CIP budget is the product of the hard work of a large number of people. It begins with department and division managers and their staff who
prepared, ranked and updated the CIP requests. It extends to Boards and Commissions who review staff’s recommendations and make
modifications and establish priorities.
I wish to express my thanks to all who were involved in preparing the Fiscal Year 2026-2030 version of the City’s Capital Improvement Program.
Special thanks go to Chief Financial Officer, Jennifer Larson; Budget Manager Laura Bendorf; Budget/Financial Analysts, Nathan Kelleher and
Joe Link; Assistant City Manager Cori Burbach, Executive Assistant, Stephanie Valentine; Administrative Assistant Mia Burbach; Finance
Confidential Account Clerk, Kaia Humpal. I am proud of the work completed by City staff and the end-result. I hope after you have had an
opportunity to review this document that you feel it is responsive to your priorities.

Source of Funds and Important Details
The Fiscal Year 2026-2030 CIP presents a financial plan that reflects a $285,791 general fund property tax levy supported annual debt service for
the FY 2010 purchase of a replacement pumper truck ($1,035,000) and the FY 2016 franchise fee litigation settlement judgment bond ($2,800,000).
No other borrowings included in the Fiscal Year 2026-2030 CIP utilize a debt service levy. It is anticipated that other borrowing from non-utility funds
can and will be minimized by using other sources of funds such as future DRA annual distributions of operating surplus and sales tax revenue.
The following important details are about the source of funds:
UTILITIES
Stormwater
The Stormwater Utility was formed on July 1, 2003, to update and expand the City’s aging infrastructure, comply with the National Pollution
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit, and implement the various elements of the 2001
Drainage Basin Master Plan (amended in 2013), which outlined improvements in both the Catfish Creek and Bee Branch watersheds. The City has
been able to garner support from local, state, and federal partners with over $163 million in outside funding to help offset the cost of the overall $254
million project. Since 2001, the City has made steady progress on the various phases of the project.
When the City Council adopted Ordinance 21-12 (passed and approved on March 7, 2012), they established that the stormwater utility fee would
increase to $9.00 per month on July 1, 2016 in order to fund the operational and capital costs of the public stormwater management system,
including improvements such as the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project. But later in 2012, the Iowa General Assembly created the Flood
Mitigation Program which provides funding for flood mitigation projects undertaken by local governments such as the City of Dubuque. Managed by
the Iowa Flood Mitigation Board, the funding source established involves taking a portion of the incremental growth of State sales tax revenue
collected within a city and diverting from the State General Fund to cities approved for the funding. Having updated the Drainage Basin Master Plan
in the fall of 2013, which outlined the improvements associated with the 12-phase Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project, the City was
successful in securing $98.5 million in State sales tax increment funding. With the infusion of funding, the City Council adopted Ordinance 16-14
(passed and approved on March 5, 2014) establishing that the stormwater utility fee did not reach $9.00 per month until July 1, 2021, five years later
than later than previously scheduled.
The City has been able to provide stormwater management services within the rate structure established by Ordinance 16-14. Due to the uncertain
economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was no increase in FY2021 as part of the City's Coronavirus relief response. With some minor
adjustments to planned Capital Improvement Program projects, reducing some budgets and delaying a few others, the City was able to delay the
planned increases for a year such that the rate did not reach $9.00 per month until FY 2023, six years later than previously scheduled.

Page 50 of 706
The recommended Fiscal Year 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program Budget includes $13,696,697 for the Flood Mitigation Gate & Pump
Replacement as part of the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project (Phase 5 of the Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project). Additional
funding was provided for the project in the Fiscal Years 2024 and 2025 Capital Improvement Program Budgets.
The recommended Fiscal Year 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program Budget includes $3,556,000 for construction in Fiscal Year 2028 for
the Flood Control Maintenance Facility as part of the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project (Phase 9 of the Bee Branch Watershed Flood
Mitigation Project). Additional Funding was provided for the project design in the Fiscal Year 2025 Capital Improvement Program Budget.
The recommended Fiscal Year 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program Budget includes $1,120,000 for the North End Storm Sewer
Improvements as part of the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project (Phase 10 of the Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project).
Fiscal Year 2026 will be the nineteenth fiscal year that the Stormwater Fund is recommended to be fully funded by stormwater user fees. The
General Fund will continue to provide funding for the stormwater fee subsidies that provide a 50% subsidy for the stormwater fee charged to
property tax exempt properties, low-to-moderate income residents, and a 75% subsidy for the stormwater fee charged to residential farms. The
FY 2026 Stormwater User Fee is proposed to increase from $10.50 per SFU to $11.03 per SFU, a 5.00% increase.

Water
Water revenue represents a portion of the monthly water bill that goes for maintenance, repair, replacement and improvement of the Eagle Point
Water Plant and water distribution system on a pay-as-you-go basis for all projects except the major extensions. The annual payment to the
depreciation fund in Fiscal Year 2025 is $60,000. The Fiscal Year 2026-2030 CIP anticipates $2,908,280 in Fiscal Year 2026, $1,555,195 in Fiscal
Year 2027, $2,468,211 in Fiscal Year 2028, $2,950,541 in Fiscal Year 2029, and $2,034,800 in Fiscal Year 2030.
Water State Revolving Fund Loans will be used to finance sewer projects in FY 2026-2030 as follows: $750,000 FY 2026; $1,524,715 FY 2027;
$9,158,146 FY 2028; $4,523,812 FY 2029; and $0 FY 2030. The debt service related to the total $15,956,673 State Revolving Fund Loans over the
5-years will be paid from water fees and offset by reduced payments to Depreciation (Construction Fund). The State Revolving Fund Loans support
West End Annexation Study and Implementation Phase I, Tamarack Park Drive/Wood Gate Drive Frontage Road Water Main Extension, Source
Water PFAS Reduction Project Granular Filter, Water Main Replacements - Consent Decree, Third Pressure Zone Connection (from Tanzanite Dr to
Olympic Heights Pump Station), Highway 20/Dodge St. Water Main Relocation - Devon Drive to Concord Street, Green Alley Water Main
Improvements, Water Storage Rehabilitation Program, Water Main Replacements - Streets, and West End Annexation Phase II.
Prior to FY 2013, the General fund has been subsidizing a portion of the utility funds use of administrative services such as Engineering
administration, Engineering Project Management, Finance accounting services, Economic Development, Planning Services, Workforce
Development, City Clerk services, Legal services, City Manager’s Office including Budget, Geographic Information Systems, Sustainability,
Neighborhood Development, Arts and Cultural Affairs and Personnel. Prior to FY 2013, the Engineering department estimated the amount of time
spent on projects and allocated that time to an Internal Service Fund which is then allocated to the various capital improvement projects that the
personnel work on. The remaining time not allocated to the Internal Service Fund was considered administrative and has been charged to the
General Fund. In addition, administrative departments such as the City Manager’s Office, Legal, Planning, Economic Development, City Clerk’s
Office and Workforce Development recharged expenses based upon each enterprise fund’s percent of the City-wide operating budget, excluding
debt service. The accounting activity of the Finance Department has not been recharged to the other funds with exception of payroll and loan
processing, parking tickets and landfill billing.
Beginning in FY 2013, additional overhead recharges to the utility funds is being phased in over several years. Engineering administrative and
project management expenses that are not recharged to capital projects will be split evenly between the Water, Sewer, Stormwater and General
Funds. Finance accounting expenses and all other administrative departments such as Economic Development, Planning, Workforce Development,
City Clerk, Legal Services and City Manager’s Office will be split evenly between Water, Sewer, Stormwater, Refuse Collection and General Funds,
with overhead costs being shared by the Landfill and Parking. This will be fully implemented over time.
Beginning in Fiscal Year 2018, Neighborhood Development, Economic Development and Workforce Development expenses will not be recharged to
utility funds. In addition, the Landfill will not be recharged GIS and Planning expenses.
The Water Fund’s share of the City’s administrative overhead is 18.75%. In FY 2026, the Water Fund will support 17.81% of administrative
overhead.
The water fees in FY 2026 are recommended to increase 9.0%.

Sewer
Sewer revenue represents a portion of the monthly sewer bill that goes for the maintenance, repair, replacement and improvement of the Water &
Resource Recovery Center Plant; lift stations, and sewer lines on a pay-as-you-go basis. The annual payment to the depreciation fund in Fiscal Year
2025 was $1,600,000. The Fiscal Year 2026-2030 CIP anticipates $1,946,377 in Fiscal Year 2026, $2,900,000 in Fiscal Year 2027, $2,100,000 in
Fiscal Year 2028, $2,238,000 in Fiscal Year 2029 and $2,822,900 in Fiscal Year 2030.
Sanitary Sewer State Revolving Fund Loans will be used to finance sewer projects in FY 2026-2030 as follows: $20,079,873 FY 2026; $17,796,826
FY 2027; $19,938,126 FY 2028; $12,413,852 FY 2029; and $8,170,350 FY 2030. The debt service related to the total $78,399,027 State Revolving
Fund Loans over the 5-years will be paid from sewer fees and offset by reduced payments to Depreciation (Construction Fund). The State
Revolving Fund Loans support such projects as Fore main Stabilization, Catfish Creek Sewershed Interceptor Improvements (South Fork and

spent on projects and allocated that time to an Internal Service Fund which is then allocated to the various capital improvement projects that the
personnel work on. The remaining time not allocated to the Internal Service Fund was considered administrative and has been charged to the
General Fund. In addition, administrative departments such as the City Manager’s Office, Legal, Planning, Economic Development, City Clerk’s
Office and Workforce Development recharged expenses based upon each enterprise fund’s percent of the City-wide operating budget, excluding
debt service. The accounting activity of the Finance Department has not been recharged to the other funds with exception of payroll and loan
processing, parking tickets and landfill billing.
Beginning in FY 2013, additional overhead recharges to the utility funds is being phased in over several years. Engineering administrative and
project management expenses that are not recharged to capital projects will be split evenly between the Water, Sewer, Stormwater and General
Funds. Finance accounting expenses and all other administrative departments such as Economic Development, Planning, Workforce Development,
City Clerk, Legal Services and City Manager’s Office will be split evenly between Water, Sewer, Stormwater, Refuse Collection and General Funds,
with overhead costs being shared by the Landfill and Parking. This will be fully implemented over time.
Beginning in Fiscal Year 2018, Neighborhood Development, Economic Development and Workforce Development expenses will not be recharged to
utility funds. In addition, the Landfill will not be recharged GIS and Planning expenses.
The Sanitary Sewer Fund’s share of the City’s administrative overhead is 18.75%. In FY 2026, the Sanitary Sewer Fund will support 18.28% of the
administrative overhead.

Parking
Parking revenue represents three primary sources: (a) the balance of prior year depreciation funds set aside for the maintenance and repair of
parking ramps; (b) future payments to the depreciation fund for repair and maintenance of the parking system (there are no budgeted payments to
the depreciation fund in future years due to using existing cash balance); and (c) interest income.
A $5.2 million Greater Downtown TIF borrowing is anticipated in FY 2026-2030 for parking ramp major maintenance. New debt service will be paid
from the Greater Downtown TIF fund.
The Greater Downtown TIF will support parking related debt in the downtown as follows: $2,012,375 in FY 2026; $2,014,000 in FY 2027;
$2,010,750 in FY 2028; $2,012,625 in FY 2029; and $2,013,875 in FY 2030.
Prior to FY 2013, the General fund has been subsidizing a portion of the utility funds use of administrative services such as Engineering
administration, Engineering Project Management, Finance accounting services, Economic Development, Planning Services, Workforce
Development, City Clerk services, Legal services, City Manager’s Office including Budget, Geographic Information Systems, Sustainability,
Neighborhood Development, Arts and Cultural Affairs and Personnel. Prior to FY 2013, the Engineering department estimated the amount of time

GENERAL FUND
The current revenue amount of $409,000 (0.12% of CIP Total) during the five-year period represents $110,000 in golf funds for improvements to the
Bunker Hill Golf Course, $29,000 in Historic Preservation Loan repayments, $75,000 in Rental Dwelling Rehab Repayments, $120,000 in
Washington Neighborhood Loan Repayments, $50,000 in insurance and other reimbursements, and $25,000 in repayments to the Homeownership
Loan Program.
LOCAL OPTION SALES TAX (LOST)
The local option Sales and Services Tax approved by the voters on February 2, 1988, provided that 20 percent of the proceeds would be used for:
(a) the upkeep of City-owned property such as sidewalks, steps, storm sewers, walks, curbs, traffic signals and signs, bridges, and buildings and
facilities; (b) transit equipment such as buses; (c) riverfront and wetland developments; and (d) economic development projects. This portion of the
Sales and Services Tax shows up on the CIP Source of Funds Summary as “Sales Tax (20%)” totals $2,076,092 and represents 0.59% of the total
CIP.
The local option Sales and Services Tax approved by the voters on February 2, 1988, provided that 30 percent of the proceeds would be used to:
(a) reduce street special assessments by at least 75 percent; and (b) maintain and repair streets. This portion of the Sales and Services Tax shows
up on the CIP Source of Funds Summary as “Sales Tax/Street Projects (30 percent)” and totals $21,760,781, or 6.19% of the total CIP.
GAMING
DRA payments represent 0% in FY 2026 of the projected gaming taxes, rent, and admissions from the race track, slots and riverboat operations ($0
or 0.00% of the total CIP) over the five-year period. When practical in future years, additional revenues will be moved to capital from operating. To
the extent that there is any revenue shortfall in future years, capital projects will be eliminated or deferred. DRA distribution revenue projections
($2,498,676 or 0.71% of the total CIP) are discounted consistent with the adopted budget guidelines by 5% in FY 2028, 10% in FY 2029 and 15% in
FY 2030. In Fiscal Year 2026, all DRA Distribution is diverted to the operating budget instead of being used in the capital budget. This was
also done in Fiscal Year 2025 and 2024, which is a change from past practice.
On December 14, 2021, an amended lease took effect with the Dubuque Racing Association for lease of the Q Casino. This lease amendment
raised the lease payment from 1% of coin-in to 1.5% of coin-in.The amendment increased the amount retained by the DRA for the operating budget
reserve from 5% to 10%. The lease amendment eliminates the $10,000 per month DRA payment to the Depreciation and Improvement Fund for
facility maintenance. In addition, the distribution of net profit is now split three ways between the City, charities, and the Schmitt Island Master Plan
Implementation from a two-way split between the City and charities. The amended lease has an expiration date of December 31, 2055.
In calendar year 2024, the DRA saw a decline of -4.85% in gross gaming revenues, while Diamond Jo experienced a slight increase of +1.61%
compared to 2023. The Dubuque market in 2024 was approximately $122.6 million annually, showing a decrease of -0.8% from the $123.6 million
market in 2023. This decline was expected due to construction disruptions throughout the year. The DRA's gross gaming revenue was significantly
impacted by redevelopment work on the property, which continued throughout the year. Additionally, the main highway leading to our facility was
closed for extended repairs. An exit ramp that was initially scheduled for a brief closure ended up being closed for several months, further affecting
traffic and access.

Page 56 of 706
Despite these challenges, the DRA saw growth in other areas in 2023, including food and beverage sales, as well as new revenue from the opening
of the Island Social (Family Entertainment Center) and the new banquet event space. However, total gross revenue for the DRA in 2024 was down
-4.2% compared to 2023.

the operating budget and funds that had been reserved to finance high priority transportation projects. The Iowa Department of Transportation
(IDOT) provides annual projections on the amount of RUTF the City of Dubuque will receive over the next five years based on a per capita amount.
- lii -
Page 57 of 706
The State Road Use Tax Fund consist of revenues from fuel tax, vehicle registration fees, use tax, driver’s license fees and other miscellaneous
sources and is distributed to cities on a per capita basis. It should be noted that in FY 2010, the Iowa Department of Revenue increased Road Use
Tax Funds (RUT) as a result of higher vehicle registration fees passed into law in 2008. The gas tax was increased ten cents beginning in February
2015. The city is estimated to receive $44,519,265 for FY 2026-2030, all used for operations.
Sales Tax Increment Revenue
The City secured a $98.5 million grant through the State of Iowa Flood Mitigation program funded by 70% of the sales tax increment revenue
received from the State of Iowa’s 5% portion of sales tax received from sales in the City of Dubuque. This revenue will fund the debt service payable
on Sales Tax increment Revenue bonds and Iowa Finance Authority State Revolving Fund Loans issued for the Flood Mitigation project known as
the Bee Branch Watershed Project. In the five year capital program, $3,956,000 of sales tax increment revenue will fund pay-as-you-go projects
related to the Bee Branch Watershed project.
Other State Grants (0.61% of Total CIP)
State funding includes Iowa Department of Transportation Funding for street projects and trails and Historic Preservation Surveys and Regulations
of $2,155,000 are anticipated over the five-year program.
Iowa Finance Authority funding of $919,896 is anticipated over the five-year program for the Housing Department’s Housing Trust Fund to provide
permanently affordable housing or assistance to nonprofit organizations providing the same.
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF)
Dubuque Industrial Center West TIF District
In FY 2006 and 2007, Tax Increment Financing (TIF) funds were committed towards abatement of the 20 year G.O. Bond issue for a Dubuque
Industrial Center West (DICW) expansion and Chavenelle Road extension project, thereby delaying payback to the general fund for prior year
development costs. In FY 2007, the TIF assessed values increased, allowing for additional increment for projects and cost recovery to continue. In
FY 2017, the TIF assessed values increased again from a commercial 12% state equalization order.
The FY 2026-2030 CIP includes $1,857,500 in land sale proceeds to provide funding for the new campaign by the Greater Dubuque Development
Corporation to improve the economy in Dubuque, $60,000 for a second dog park planning, and $30,000 for native plantings.
Annexation Initiatives
As annexation and development continues, the City has taken the following initiatives to provide services to annexed areas:
Additional Police Officers (Operating Budget)
With the Police Department’s crime strategy, Territory Accountability Design, in full implementation, the department projected the need to increase
Dubuque’s current six patrol territories to seven as new areas of the city are developed. To add a seventh territory, five additional police officers
were needed.
- liii -
Page 58 of 706
Partly in response to this need, the Police Department developed a Sworn Officer Plan which proposed the addition of 15 sworn police officers over
a five-year period, with the first five (four Police Officers and one Police Corporal acting as a Section 8 Investigator) approved in December 2007,
four more were approved in FY 2009, three more were approved in FY 2010, two more were approved in FY 2011 and one more was approved in
FY 2012. The plan’s staff increases created sufficient staffing to establish an additional patrol territory. In FY 2019, an additional sworn police officer
was added, an existing position was promoted to Captain and one Corporal position was eliminated in order to create a Specialty Unit Commander.
The Fiscal Year 2020 budget approved the expansion of the Dubuque Police Department School Resource Officer Program. To spread the
expenses over time, three SRO's were to have been added over three consecutive years: Fiscal Year 2020, Fiscal Year 2021, and Fiscal Year 2022
budget. However, the expansion was frozen in FY21 due to the pandemic causing the final position and was added in FY23 instead of FY22 as
originally planned. The Dubuque Community School District (DCSD) will still gradually pay 50% of the salary of the existing SRO Lieutenant, and the
DARE Officer. This DCSD payment will be implemented in increments of 45% of 50% reimbursement in year 1, or Fiscal Year 20, 75% of 50%
reimbursement in year 2, or Fiscal Year 21, and 100% of 50% reimbursement in year 3, or Fiscal Year 22. In Fiscal Year 2024, two Crisis
Intervention Team Officers were approved. In late 2024, the Precision Policing Center (PPC) was established. It is expected to serve as a critical
"force multiplier" for the department, supporting rapid police response, informed decision-making, and proactive crime prevention. This is also
supporting officer safety. The PPC is staffed by five non-sworn (civilian) employees in three roles: three Precision Policing Center Technicians, one
Crime Analyst, and one Criminal Computer Forensics.
Fire Station and Additional Firefighters/Paramedics
An additional west end fire station is currently projected to be designed in FY 2030 and built in FY 2031. In fact, this might not be an additional
station but might be a relocation of the Grandview fire station. This station would be approximately 10,000 square feet and house two response
apparatus, plus storage for other reserve units. The City of Dubuque currently has an annexation study and not an annexation plan. However,
addition of this fire station and associated ambulance and firefighting response capability and capacity positions the City well to develop an
annexation plan and begin the process of annexation in the future. The City Development Board, that approves annexation expects services to be
provided within 3 years of annexation. For a new station, operating costs include insurance, utilities, equipment, maintenance, and furniture. In
FY2020, one (1) new employee was added, one (1) additional new employee was added in FY 2021 as well. The position that was to be added in
FY2022 was delayed. In FY2023, 4 new employees were added. In FY2024, one new firefighter was added. In FY 2025 an additional EMS Captain
and an additional EMS Bureau Chief were approved, and the additional employees may be added in future years. In addition, 3 firefighter/
paramedic positions were added in FY2023 to provide one additional staff member on each of the three duty shifts. The additional ambulance for
the additional fire station was purchased in FY2023. The current minimum staffing per shift is 22, with 28 personnel assigned to cover leave. The
additional personnel will reduce the need for overtime as each shift will have more positions available to cover vacations and other leave.
Additional Snow Plow Drivers and Snow Plow Route (Operating Budget)
Dubuque’s expansion also increased the number of streets and roads that must be maintained by the City’s Public Works Department. In order to
maintain the current level of street maintenance, street cleaning, and snow and ice control to all areas of the city, the Public Works Department was
approved for the addition of a snow plow driver in FY 2009 and another is expected to be requested in a future year. Two drivers are needed to staff
a route 24 hours a day in a snow event. The Public Works Department plans to create another snowplow route with these two employees as
annexation and development dictates. In the warm months, this position will be assigned to the Parks and Recreation Department to maintain City
parks and landscaping in the Washington Neighborhood, Port of Dubuque, Iowa Street and the Locust Street connector. In Fiscal Year 2009, the
Public Works Department also began using Refuse, Recycling and Yard Waste Collection employees at the end of their collection routes and on
overtime to assist in snow removal duties. The City has also developed a plan to use personnel and equipment from other City departments to go
- liv -
Page 59 of 706
from 22 pieces of snow removal equipment to 32 pieces of snow removal equipment in a snow storm that exceeds 5 inches. With the
recommendation to eliminate full-time positions in the Engineering Department and create one part-time position, there will be less opportunity to
supplement the snow plowing effort.
Water and Sanitary Sewer Service
The City is in the process of extending sanitary sewers and water service into new development areas or recently annexed areas as part of pre-
annexation agreements and replacing undersized sanitary sewers along with new lift stations. Requests have been received for sanitary sewer and
water service on North Cascade Road near Highway 20 and for water service further North on John F. Kennedy Road.
In 2003, a new water main was activated from Highway 20 north on the east side of the Northwest Arterial to John F. Kennedy Road then west to a
new 1.25 million gallon water tower located at the Dubuque Soccer Complex. By constructing this tower and with this water main extension in the
fourth pressure zone of the City's water distribution system, it allowed growth to take place for residential, commercial and industry to the west of the
community.
To date, both sanitary sewer and water service have been extended through the Dubuque Industrial Center West, along Seippel Road to the north
edge of the Callahan subdivision. Additional funds are available to extend water and sewer service to the 643 acres annexed and to other areas
under consideration for annexation. The City has spent in excess of $2 million to replace much of the North Fork Catfish Creek Sanitary Sewer Line.
The City extended the Granger Creek Interceptor sewer and the public water main from the Technology Park South along highway 151/61 to the
north side of the Dubuque Regional Airport. The Granger Creek sanitary sewer and water main extension provided immediate sanitary sewer and
water services to the Dubuque Regional Airport and portions of the annexation areas that are adjacent to the highway 151/61 corridor.
Greater Downtown TIF District
This district was formally the Downtown and Ice Harbor TIF districts but now have been combined to the Greater Downtown TIF district. Many
projects, which are City Council priorities, are able to move forward due to the availability of Greater Downtown TIF revenue due to continued
growth to further sustain a rejuvenated downtown and port of Dubuque. The following are projects included in the FY 2026-2030 CIP:
Reimagine Comiskey (page 16) – This project ($1,697,000) provides for funding related to the park development for Phase 2 of Re-
Imagine Comiskey. Phase 2 includes additional basketball courts, a large turf field, parking lot, additional sidewalks, lighting and pavilions.
Washington Community Gateway (page 21) – This project ($99,000) provides for developing the vacant lot at 1401 Elm Street as a
Washington Community Gateway. The city purchased this property in 2014. The structure has been removed and the lot is currently grass.
This project would provide for such amenities as three flag poles, park lighting, security cameras, a welcome sign to the Washington
neighborhood and a drinking fountain.
Five Flags Marquee Replacement (page 24) – This project ($131,000) provides for replacement of the video marquee located at 4th and Locust.
It is critical to relaying information to people driving or walking by the building. The current marquee was installed in 2018. The life expectancy is 7-9
years. A new marquee would have an upgraded screen with higher resolution resulting in better clarity, more user friendly, and more efficient.
Five Flags Standby Emergency Generator Replacement (page 25) – This project ($855,000) provides for replacement of the emergency
standby generator located at 5th Street which provides power to critical systems inside of the building during a sudden loss of power. The current
- lv -
Page 60 of 706
generator was installed in 2000 and is nearing the end of life expectancy of 30 years. A new generator would be more efficient and environmentally
friendly.
Five Flags Recirculating Pump Replacement (page 26) – This project ($37,000) provides for the replacement of two recirculating pumps that
are responsible for keeping the warm water for sinks readily available by circulating the hot water.
Five Flags Building Improvements (page 27) – This project ($23,454,000) provides funding for improvements to the building (arena,
theater, lobby areas, exterior) and its equipment.
Five Flags Boiler Replacement (page 28) – This project ($410,000) provides funding for replacement of three 2 million BTU boilers which
provide heating for the arena. The current boiler system was installed in 2006 and has a replacement schedule of 20 years. Future boilers
are more energy efficient.
Port of Dubuque Welcome Sign (page 34) - This project ($33,000) provides for the design, development, and installation of an 8 foot by
200 foot "Welcome to Dubuque" sign located on the flood wall near the Ice Harbor flood gates. There is currently no signage along the river
to let patrons know that they have either arrived or are passing by Dubuque. Such a sign on the wall would not only be a welcoming visual
for those visiting on cruise ships or other vessels but can create awareness on the river that this is an area they may approach in order to
visit the City. This sign could also indirectly filter boat traffic into the Port of Dubuque Marina to dock and/or fuel. Included in this CIP would
be the purchase and installation of solar lighting with a 5-year replacement cost of $3,500.
Grand River Center Replace Carpet (page 35) - This project ($364,000) provides for the replacement of carpeting at the Grand River
Center.
Grand River Center Roof Restoration (page 36) - This project ($1,383,000) provides for restoration of the roof on the Grand River Center.
The roof was installed in 2002 and restoration is critical to prevent expensive damage if the roof begins leaking.
Grand River Center Dishwasher and Water Softener Replacement (page 37) - This project ($181,000) provides for a dishwasher and
water softener replacement as they are original to the venue and reached its industry standard life span. After running dishes through the
current dishwasher, they are coming back spotted which leads to concerns when placed in front of the guests. Oak View Group (OVG)
conducted an in-depth review of the venue’s kitchen requirements. The examination focused on on elevating the culinary experience for the
guests to delivering a refined and exceptional food experience.
Grand River Center Public Restroom Remodels (page 38) - This project ($385,000) provides for improvement of the overall quality of the
guest experience. A comprehensive remodel and renovation of all public bathrooms would be completed. The current design of these
facilities has become outdated and is in need of a look that matches the rest of our venue and better meets the expectations of the guests of
today. This project aims to revitalize the appearance of the restrooms and upgrade the existing fixtures, many of which have remained
untouched since the facility’s initial opening in 2003.
East - West Corridor Capacity Improvements (page 198) - This project ($1,085,000) funds capacity improvements along University
Avenue and Pennsylvania Avenue to Delhi.

Page 61 of 706
7th Street Extension to Pine Street (page 201) - This project ($2,000,000) funds an environmental assessment of potential site
development and the potential acquisition of the real estate. FY27 and FY28 programmed funding would allow for the design development
and potential construction of a roadway through the Alliant site which would connect Pine Street at 9th / Kerper Boulevard to 7th Street.
14th Street Overpass (page 204) - This project ($39,120,000) funds planning, design, and construction of a multimodal transportation
corridor project for proposed improvements to the Elm Street corridor, the 16th Street corridor, the Kerper Boulevard corridor, Chaplain
Schmitt Island corridor, and the proposed 14th Street railroad (vehicular and pedestrian) overpass bridge project. The City was awarded a
$2.28 million US DOT RAISE Infrastructure Planning grant and a $25 million RAISE Capital grant to assist in funding for the project entitled
“Building Bridges to Employment and Equity (B2E2)."
Central Avenue White Street Corridor Master Plan Design and Implementation Improvements 4th - 22nd Street (page 205) - This
project ($8,170,000) provides for funding to implement recommendations outlined in the adopted Central Avenue Streetscape Master Plan
along Central Avenue between 11th and 22nd Streets, as well as potential recommendations from the traffic study currently underway for the
Central and White Street corridors, with 4th Street to 11th Street coming beyond 2030. The FY26 includes $400,000 for engineering design
services and $1 million to create new public parking opportunities to replace on street spaces lost on Central and White Streets. FY27 is to
restripe the entire Central Avenue and White Street corridor, 4th-22nd, and continue the FY26 work. FY28 is improvements from 14th - 17th
Street. FY29 is improvements from 17th - 20th Street, and continue improvements to 14th -17th Streets. FY30 is installation of the Cycle
Truck Lane on the west side of White Street from 5th to 19th Street, and to continue improvements from 17th - 20th Streets. FY2031 and
beyond will require $14 million in additional investment to do 20th - 22nd, and 4th -14th Street on Central Avenue and White Street.
South Port Redevelopment Concept Plan (page 224) - This project ($40,000) provides for the creation of a clear and consolidated
redevelopment vision for the South Port where all existing property owners entering into a partnering agreement thus providing prospective
developers a high level of assurance that all key players are in agreement and on-board with proceeding with a proposed redevelopment
concept.
Iowa Amphitheater on Schmitt Island (page 227) - This project ($9,641,563) provides for a match to the Destination Iowa grant that would
construct the Iowa Amphitheater on Chaplain Schmitt Island in the location of the former dog kennels for the greyhounds. This project relates
to the City Council top priority goal of Chaplain Schmitt Island Master Plan Implementation.
Greater Downtown Street Lights (page 232) - This project ($180,000) provides funding for replacement of the existing 30-foot white
streetlights located in downtown Dubuque. Currently, there are approximately 60 white streetlights remaining. The project would replace all
remaining white poles and install lighting controllers with meters. In certain cases, these would be replaced with historical streetlights. Many
of the streetlights in the downtown area were installed in early 1950's. This program would promote the use of high efficiently, long life LED
street lighting throughout the City of Dubuque which saves energy and operating expenses.
Downtown Security Camera Program (page 239) - This project ($350,000) provides equipment, installation, and software licenses for the
placement of fixed cameras ($2,500 each) installed near roadways, alleys, and signalized intersections in Downtown Dubuque.

Iowa Street Streetlight Replacement Project (page 254) - This project ($138,000) replaces the rusting poles that are failing along Iowa St
from 4th St to 9th St. The current white poles are rusting from variable of factors, including, quality, age, and winter solutions. This would
include the replacement of 16 poles with foundations and new conduit for power, along with light fixtures and pull boxes. These replacements
will help by being proactive on failing infrastructure in the downtown area.
Federal Building Renovation (page 256) - This project ($7,893,225) provides funding in FY26 for major HVAC upgrades to replace existing
equipment that is beyond its expected service life and subject to frequent or catastrophic breakdown. FY29 provides funding for the second phase of
HVAC upgrades.
ADA Compliance and Facilities Management Consulting (page 257) - This project ($50,000) provides for consulting services related to ADA
Compliance Phase II and further implementation of the City's ADA compliance application, called InVision Facilities Management. In Phase I, we were
able to have the floor plans of 2 city buildings added to InVision Facilities Management, as well as buildings and pavilions located in parks. In the second
phase, we will add additional building footprints and work with a consultant to fully implement the application and possibly tie it into GIS software, ArcGIS
Indoors. The funding for this phase is spread out over three years.
Downtown Bike Lockers (page 258) - This project ($30,000) funds the installation of 4-5 weatherproof bike lockers per year at the downtown building
facilities assigned to the Facilities Management Team.
Greater Downtown Housing Creation Grant Program (page 259) - This program ($3,750,000) provides grants for rehabilitation and
adaptive reuse of buildings in the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District. Tax increment proceeds are used to capitalize the pool of
funds for these grant. The program provides grants up to $10,000 for each new housing unit created in the District. The program creates
affordable, quality rental housing units for our workforce.
Small Business Grant Administration (page 260) - This project ($60,000) provides the funding to Fountain of Youth for its administration
of the grant, which reduces barriers for low- to moderate-income individuals who are in the early stages of operating a small business.
Downtown Rehab Grant Program - Includes Central Avenue, Historic Millwork District and Washington Neighborhood (page 262) –
This program ($1,000,000) grants for rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of buildings in the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District. Tax
increment proceeds are used to capitalize the pool of funds for these grants. This grant program provides a 1:1 match for eligible expenses
for improvements to façades, as well as accompanying costs for financial consulting and planning & design work for the project. This grant
program receives the most inquiries and interest of all Economic Development Department’s programs. The program promotes the
redevelopment of the downtown, maintains its historic appeal, and complements grant/loan programs provided by our partners at Dubuque
Main Street.
Central Avenue Housing Forgivable Loan (page 263) - This project ($750,000) provides for use along the Central Avenue Corridor
between 11th Street and 22nd Street. For this program, a unit could be considered eligible even if recently occupied if the project involves a
substantial rehabilitation of the unit and buildings. The program provides a loan, forgivable at the 10-year mark, if the developer has
maintained the terms of the agreement. Projects can not discriminate based on the tenant's source of income.

Central Avenue Alley Lighting Program (page 264) - This project ($40,000) provides for a matching 1:1 grant to reimburse property
owners for acquisition and installation of lighting fixtures (minimum of 250 watts) in the alleys between Central Avenue and White Street from
1400 Block to 2400 Block. Individual grant awards will be limited to $500 per property owner. Lighting will be required to be installed in the
alleyways at the rear of the property and verified by City staff. Studies have shown a strong correlation between increased alley lighting in
urban areas and a reduction in crime rates. From a public perception standpoint, increased lighting will improve the look and feel of the
Central Corridor and allow residents and visitors to the area to feel safer.
Smart Parking System (page 267) - This project ($780,000) provides funds for the installation of head end equipment that will form the
backbone of a phased installation of smart parking technology eventually to be deployed at all parking garages and public parking lots in
Dubuque over the next several years. A smart parking system will provide parking customers with on-demand space availability and thus
maximize traveler convenience, reduce travel time and reduce congestion in the downtown area.
Municipal Parking Lot Maintenance (page 268) - This project ($172,500) provides for maintaining the surface of 14 off-street municipal
parking lots. This project also includes signage, landscaping, and screening improvements to surface lots. Lots include: Lot 2 (9th and Bluff),
Lot 3 (5th and Bluff), Lot 5 (City Hall Lot), Lot 6 (Library Lot), Lot 7 (3rd and Main), Lot 10 (5th and Main), Lot 12 (4th and Central), Crescent
Community Health Center Parking Lot, Lot 4 (12th and Bluff), Port of Dubuque Surface Lot, Federal Building Parking Lot, Elm Street Parking
Lot, Ice Harbor Drive Parking Lot, and Lot 9 (3rd and Locust). The funding for maintenance of municipal parking lots provides for pavement
crack sealing, repairs, line striping, and seal coating surfaces of municipal parking lots.
Parking Ramp Major Maintenance Repairs (page 270) - This project ($7,198,400) funds major renovation work needed at the Iowa,
Locust, 5th Street, Five Flags, 10th and Central, and Intermodal ramps. Funding will address structural repair items and needed mechanical,
electrical & plumbing repairs.
Washington Neighborhood Home Purchase Program (page 273) - This project ($1,269,896) supports and encourages homeownership in
the Washington Neighborhood. The program operates under the oversight of the Housing Trust Fund Committee and is capitalized by annual
grants received from the Iowa Finance Authority (IFA). IFA requires a match for the program and the City provides IFA Trust Match of
$50,000 from the Greater Downtown TIF (GDTIF). The primary purpose is to complement housing assistance provided through the CDBG
program by providing loans to low-to-mod income homeowners and buyers in the Washington Neighborhood and for households earning
less than 30% MI are eligible to purchase any property within the City limits.
Downtown ADA Assistance Program (page 277) - This project ($150,000) provides assistance to residents and businesses to ensure
facilities in the Downtown Urban Renewal Area are fully accessible and inclusive to all persons regardless of abilities. This includes parking
lots, retail and wholesale stores, restaurants, cafés, taverns, gas stations, public buildings, lodging, schools, parks, and entertainment
venues. The program is designed to assist businesses with the cost of becoming ADA compliant. Qualified applicants can receive up to 50%
of the cost of the project from the City of Dubuque, at a maximum amount of $5,000 per property.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project consists of the evaluation, design, architecture, and construction of individualized bunk space in each of the City's Fire Stations. The current layout
utilizes one common bunk space for all members on shift for each station. Up to 8 members bunk in one common space within the bunk room. Modern layouts
provide for more private options for bunking within fire stations and improve privacy while being progressive and financially responsible in design. The project is
closely related to the fire headquarters HVAC CIP due to the configuration, design and engineering needs for the bunk room, the administration office upgrade and
the impacts the HVAC design would have on these spaces. The CIPs listed above, all have an engineering and design component that will be impacted heavily by
the HVAC redesign and configuration CIP. Creating individual bunk rooms from an open space will require HVAC engineering as well as changing the fire
headquarters office layout. Finally, ensuring the exhaust system selected works in harmony with the building HVAC design will be critical, working each of these
projects separately will be a duplication of engineering efforts and increase the overall cost. Budgeting includes $50,0000 to complete the design study of Station
1 and $125,000 to complete the design study of Stations 2-6. Construction funding is as follows: Station 1: $450,000, Station 2: $150,000, Station 3: $185,000,
Station 4: $185,000, Station 5: 125,000, Station 6: $125,000
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the Fire Headquarters HVAC project (CIP1315000008), the Mechanical and Electrical System upgrade project (CIP 1315000006), the Fire
Station Exhaust System project (CIP 1315000009), and the Fire Administration Office Upgrade project (CIP 1315000029). All of the CIPs mentioned have an
engineering and design component that will be impacted heavily by the HVAC redesign and configuration CIP. Creating individual bunk rooms from an open space
will require HVAC engineering, as well as changing the fire headquarters office layout. Ensuring the exhaust system selected works in harmony with the building
HVAC design will be critical. Working each of these projects separately will be a duplication of engineering efforts and increase the overall cost.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project seeks to extend the service life of the City-wide outdoor warning siren system. The components of this system are now over twenty years old and
failure of siren components is starting to drive up repair costs. Additionally, any failure of this warning system could have serious safety ramifications. The project
is designed to replace and/or repair the system of 17 outdoor warning sirens over a five-year period. This project started with an FY21 request for $100,000
however, those funds were frozen during much of FY21 and the project was not started on time. In FY 2023, several components were updated which included
siren modules, wiring, and back up batteries to ensure the sirens continue to receive the maintenance they require to remain effective. Additional repairs and
maintenance was completed in FY 2024, and an evaluation of the current siren locations will be conducted in FY 2025 to ensure appropriate coverage for the area.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the third-party analysis of the City of Dubuque fire station locations and the verification of current station locations as well as the
identification of an additional fire station as development and annexation occurs, including approximate timeline for implementation if confirmed. The station
location study is projected to be completed in FY 2025 or FY 2026 with presentation to the city manager and council to review results. A new station would be
approximately 10,000 square feet and house two response apparatus, plus storage for other reserve units. The City of Dubuque currently has an annexation study
and not an annexation plan. The City Development Board, which approves annexation, expects services to be provided within 3 years of annexation. For a new
station, operating costs include insurance, utilities, equipment, maintenance, furniture, and the cost of employees. Based on this CIP, in FY2020, one (1) new
employee was added, one (1) additional new employee was hired in FY 2021. In FY2022 no additional personnel were funded. An improvement request for
additional staffing was also submitted and approved in conjunction with this fire station expansion/relocation project. The department added 4 personnel in FY
2023 and staffed its third paramedic unit in October of 2023 which required 6 personnel (2 for each shift). To accommodate staffing of an additional engine
company in FY2026, operating costs also include an increase of three (3) additional staff in each coming year, FY 2027, FY 2028, and FY2029 for a total of 9
positions. If no expansion unit is utilized/funded, the personnel would be utilized to bring 3 suppression units to a minimum staffing strategy of 3 personnel rather
than the current 2. This project does not include costs for an additional fire engine and ambulance, these costs will be listed in separate CIPs. In 2006 a study on
Municipal Fire and Emergency Service Response and Deployment was done by Matrix Consulting Group. The study included an evaluation of station needs based
on near-term and long-term growth projections and evaluation of alternative station locations. Over 164,000 different scenarios were evaluated. The report states,
"As development occurs, the city should add one additional station and relocate one current station to accommodate the increase in fire department workload. This
scenario would consist of adding a station at or near Chavenelle & Radford to provide service to the west side of the city."

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION (Continued)
This project also provides for the 2006 study to be updated to ensure the proper location and size of station is constructed based on the years of growth that will
have occurred since 2006. Should the study show that only the relocation of an existing station should occur in FY 2028, six personnel would move from the
station being relocated. The design of this station is estimated to occur in Fiscal Year 2027, with construction in the following year; however, the timing is
completely dependent on future development/annexation and could change. This new fire station would provide coverage to several areas identified in the 2018
Annexation Study prepared by the Planning Services Department. This includes areas along the Southwest Arterial corridor identified in sections L, I, and G of the
study. As annexation and development occurs in these areas, revenue derived would help support the fire station cost. Additionally, any expansion station would
positively impact service within the existing city limits and address current response time weaknesses identified during accreditation review. The cumulative cost
for staff and operating the station would be approximately $1,500,000 per year. Should the study show an existing station could be relocated or consolidated this
would reduce operating expenses. Once an expansion fire station and two units are in service the daily minimum will increase to 29, with 35 personnel assigned
per shift. The department is currently utilizing a third-party software "Darkhorse" to confirm a variety of scenarios and options for fire and EMS service delivery in a
growing community. Currently, (2024), the department is working with dispatch to update response plans and evaluate opportunities for improvement in response
times which may impact the recommendations for station location. Both call handling and turn out times have been identified as areas of opportunity for
improvement. The department expects to leverage these efficiencies and reevaluate the findings for the station location and planning data in December of 2024.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This CIP requests funding to replace fire apparatus based on a schedule of 20-year service life for pumpers. The current environment of ordering and building fire
apparatus has aggressively changed over the past several years. Departments can no longer build, order, and take delivery of fire apparatus in 12 months. The
build times, at best, are at least 18 to 24 months. Vendors are also pushing aggressive price increases multiple times in a year. The environment places extreme
difficulties on the ability to budget and predict delivery. Identifying vehicles that are scheduled for replacement and receive an approval from vehicle services
should be ordered in a staggered manner to prevent large spikes in vehicle replacement requests. This engine would replace the departments 2007 Simon rescue
pumper in Fiscal Year 2027. The vehicle (1907) served 17 years in front line capacity and another 3 years in reserve and is due for replacement in 2026-2027.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This CIP requests funding to replace fire apparatus based on a schedule of 20-year service life for pumpers. The current environment of ordering and building fire
apparatus has aggressively changed over the past several years. Departments can no longer build, order, and take delivery of fire apparatus in 12 months. The
build times, at best, are at least 18 to 24 months. Vendors are also pushing aggressive price increases multiple times in a year. The environment places extreme
difficulties on the ability to budget and predict delivery. Identifying vehicles that are scheduled for replacement and receive an approval from vehicle services
should be ordered in a staggered manner to prevent large spikes in vehicle replacement requests. This engine would replace the departments 2008 Simon rescue
pumper in Fiscal Year 2028. The vehicle (1905) served 17 years in front line capacity and another 3 years in reserve and is due for replacement in 2027-2028.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This capital improvement project is requesting funding to begin to replace the Fire Department's inventory of portable radios. Currently, the Fire Department has 55
portable radios which are kept on each fire response vehicle (this includes each riding position). The portable radios are also issued to staff officers and a small
number of radios are maintained in a reserve capacity to issue out for damaged radios and in the event of a larger scale incident. As of now, 95% of the
department's radios have reached the end of service life and will no longer be supported for maintenance and repair. The department would like to replace 50% of
the end-of-service-life radios this year and the balance of the radios in the following year (FY 2026). This strategy will ensure similar technology is provided to the
end users while absorbing the cost over two years. It would be important to provide radios that are the same in design and functionality to ensure responders are
familiar with the technology and function. The request includes antennas, P25 trunking, P25 phase 2 features, over the air programming, chargers, belt clips,
batteries, radios, speaker mics, and standard programming. In FY 2026, this request also adds radio replacements for police and airport, this increased the
number of radios by 121 (176 total portable radios).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This capital improvement project requests funds for the installation of an elevator to enhance the Main Fire Headquarters, ensuring it meets current codes and
standards, and supports our mission of providing excellent service to the community. The Main Fire Headquarters, built in 1970, is due for important upgrades to
meet current building codes and improve functionality. A primary improvement is the installation of an elevator. Installation of an elevator is necessary to comply
with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This upgrade will ensure that all individuals, including those with disabilities, can access the training and conference
meeting rooms located on the lower level, promoting inclusivity and equal access. The ability to safely and efficiently move large and heavy items is also important.
An elevator will significantly reduce the physical strain on personnel and minimize the risk of injury, thereby improving overall safety within headquarters. Fire
headquarters is a location for community meetings and interdepartmental collaboration as well as department training and future educational opportunities for the
community. An elevator will make the building more accessible to all visitors, including those with mobility impairments, ensuring a welcoming environment for
community members and other city departments. This upgrade is essential for future-proofing the facility, allowing it to adapt to changing needs and demographics.
The installation of an elevator will ensure that the headquarters remains functional and accessible for many years to come.

This project requests funding to replace the roof at Fire Station 6. The roof at Fire Station 6 was previously evaluated as part of the Station 6 Roof Replacement &
Stairwell Addition Project (CIP #1315000007), and the roof was intended to be addressed at that time. The roof was unable to be completed as part of that CIP due
to delays in the station stairwell and bay floor construction project. Emergency repairs were made to the roof in FY2023 which should last for 2-3 years until a full
replacement can be finalized and completed. Confirmation of quotes/ engineering will be completed in FY 2026 and construction to be completed in FY 2027.
During the roof replacement, there will be modifications made to the hose tower to improve space for the crews in the living areas to inclue a small utility/ bathroom
area.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for construction of asphalt cart paths on areas heavily used by motorized carts. With the increasing use of golf carts, several sections of the
golf course, particularly the grass areas, are being damaged. As a result of the grass being destroyed, erosion takes place causing an increase in maintenance
expense. Asphalt paths enable the City to regulate usage of carts on the golf course and reduce maintenance costs. Phasing the project as proposed will allow the
areas of greatest need to be constructed each year. The paths constructed in previous Fiscal Years greatly improved both the appearance and ability to maintain
those areas. Repair of existing cart paths as needed is also included in this project.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for renovating tee areas. This project will be accomplished by utilizing golf course personnel and golf course revenue. Several tee areas have
a shallow dirt layer over rock; thus the health of the tee suffers most years. These will be renovated, and dirt added. Red tee areas will be moved and enlarged on
several tees. Enlarging the areas and improving the soil conditions will improve play for our patrons. Seventy-five percent of our players are recreational golfers
that have a higher maintenance impact and will benefit from the improved red tees. Tee improvements completed to date have met with very positive comments
from our golfers.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding to install split rail fencing along the entire length of the fairway on hole #7 at the Bunker Hill Golf Course. Due to the hilly terrain,
there are several areas along the fairway that can become hazardous for golf cart riders in wet conditions. These conditions have resulted in the carts sliding
down the hills into the trees below. The result is often damage to carts and either staff or a contractor having to bring in equipment to remove the carts. This can
add additional damage to the golf course which in turn will need added staff time to repair. Over the years, staff have used less permenant methods to deter golfers
from riding in these areas during wet conditions, but these are commonly ignored. Providing a more permenant barrier with entry points for golfers to access their
golf balls along the entire fairway, will ensure the safety of our golfers as well as mitigate the additional maintenance and equipment repair costs occurred as a
result of past accidents.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding for the removal of over 20 trees located within the field of play at the Bunker Hill Golf Course. There are currently 24 trees throughout
the golf course which have been identified by the Departments Urban Forester as either a safety hazard and/or potential detriment to the golf course itself. Due to
the location and size of the many of these trees, the department will have to contract with a local tree service for their removal. This project is also in partnership
with Dubuque Trees Forever who have committed to $5,000 in replacement trees over the next 3 years.

Harbor flood gates. There is currently no signage along the river to let patrons know that they have either arrived or are passing by Dubuque. Such a sign on the
wall would not only be a welcoming visual for those visiting on cruise ships or other vessels but can create awareness on the river that this is an area they may
approach in order to visit the City. This sign could also indirectly filter boat traffic into the Port of Dubuque Marina to dock and/or fuel. Included in this CIP would be
the purchase and installation of solar lighting with a 5-year replacement cost of $3,500.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the installation of approximately 2,860 linear feet of 8-inch ductile iron pipe (DIP) along Admiral Sheehy Drive. Currently, water does not
circumnavigate the entire island. The island’s water supply comes through a 12” water main connection along the E. 16th Street bridge. To ensure a sound, fully
functioning system, a backup/redundant supply of water that does circumnavigate the island is needed, allowing repairs anywhere on the island to have access to
water. The new water main will create a looped system and provide a redundant water supply, supporting improved reliability and service. This initiative is a
component of the 2024 Chaplain Schmitt Island Development Plan.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is to provide a share of funding from the water construction funds in support of the City's efforts to meeting the City Council goal of implementing an
enterprise asset management system through use of a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS). Enterprise asset management combines
software, systems and services, and system support to maintain and optimize the functionality of operational assets across the lifecycle of an asset. Municipal
enterprise infrastructure assets refer to the physical and digital assets owned and managed by local governments for which they are accountable.
A CMMS is utilized to generate work orders and preventative maintenance schedules, track equipment usage and maintenance history, generate alerts for needed
action, track spare parts, maintain asset condition assessment data, and much more.The City currently utilizes several separate CMM software for different
functions or assets, and a broader scope or single vendor solution for a consistent CMMS tracking each utility's enterprise assets is desired.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding for the replacement of water main along Highway 20/Dodge Street from Devon Drive to Concord Street. The majority of the water
main was installed in the 1939 era. As the highway improvements have been made, including widening, the city's water main is under or adjacent to the travel
lanes in certain locations. Due to several recurrent water main breaks and the challenges associated with traffic control, it is necessary to relocate water main that
is near or beneath the Dodge Street travel lanes.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
Funding for this project provides for repair or relocation of existing water mains that may be impacted by repair work associated with retaining walls that are owned
or are the responsibility of the City of Dubuque. It is necessary for the department to evaluate the water mains adjacent to or crossing retaining walls as they may
need to be replaced, supported, or relocated during the retaining wall repair. Access to the water mains in these locations is often difficult and a condition
assessment is completed as part of this project to determine if there is strain or issues with the water main. This ongoing program allows for maintenance, repair
and reconstruction of the water main in coordination with Engineering.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project will provide funds for the replacement of the rooftop HVAC units at the Municipal Services Center. The facility was constructed and opened in 2005,
and the expected life of a rooftop HVAC unit is 20 years. The current small rooftop unit (10-ton) serves the sign and traffic signal maintenance shops and is in need
of replacement. If funded, this project will provide funding for the replacement and installation of a new unit for the sign and traffic signal shops. The second unit,
also scheduled for replacement, provides air exchange for the administration areas of the Public Works and Water Distribution area, Garage support areas and
employee support areas in the facility. When this unit fails, there is no circulation in these areas, and the work spaces become nearly unusable during the hottest
days of the year. Replacing this unit will allow the building to function as designed and will provide operational savings related to maintaining the current unit.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the replacement of existing Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) hardware and software and the installation of replacement
radio communications with fiber optic communications at the Eagle Point Water Treatment Plant, wells, pump stations, tanks, and towers. The existing SCADA
programming and operating system RSLogix 500 is outdated and the hardware is no longer supported by the manufacturer/vendor and will need to be replaced for
continued remote operations from and at the water treatment plant. The existing hardware has reached its capacity for installing new infrastructure controls and
devices required to communicate with tanks, towers, and other distribution hardware. This project also provides for the replacement of the existing communications
channel. Currently, SCADA data is relayed to and from the water treatment plant from the remote sites via radio, however, the radio path is experiencing significant
interference due to other devices transmitting data. The interference results in loss of communications and an immediate response is required by a technician to
problem solve and restore communications. Over time this method of communication has become more challenging, continues to be prone to failure, and presents
safety concerns as the radio antenna must be inspected by City staff requiring them to climb the tanks and towers. The project also provides funding for the
installation of fiber conduit and fiber optic lines as a replacement of the existing radio system to all current remote sites, with improved ability to expand to further
locations as the City grows. The fiber optic portion of the project, complements the City's existing fiber optic network and is supported by Information Services and
Engineering as an approved solution to improved communications. The enhanced fiber optic network will loop areas currently not connected and will increase the
City's opportunities to work with cellular companies that look to install their hardware on tanks and towers and transmit data via fiber optic lines.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The South Algona water main replacement project provides funding to replace a section of water main that has given the Water and Public Works Department
issues for several years. The water main was installed in 1923 and has 8 documented breaks on a half block section of pipe from 1996 to 2024. Due to the terrain
at this location, often when the main fails it undermines a portion of South Algona Street and a large section of Saint Joesph Street. In 2013 the water main and
street repairs cost $73,381 and only repaired 5 feet of water main. Most of the 2013 cost was related to street repair. The water main break in 2024 replaced about
8 feet of water main and damaged and/or undermined approximately 20 concrete panels, some of which were already replaced during the 2013 repairs. Not only
are the residents inconvenienced with unplanned water outages, but they are also inconvenienced with frequent street repairs limiting access to their homes and
affecting their parking options. The water main has been identified as a project that should be scheduled for replacement as budget and scheduling permits.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the connection between the 5th pressure zone (Olympic Heights Subdivision) the 2nd Pressure Zone, and the 3rd Pressure Zone. The
Roosevelt St Water Tower project was designed to provide effective storage for both the 2nd and 3rd pressure zones. The connection between the two zones is
recommended by the Iowa DNR and was stated in the SRF funding commitment letter for the tower project. In addition to the benefits of effective water storage for
fire suppression and daily water demand, additional benefits are from the connection of a looped system and the ability to fill the Roosevelt St tower not only from
the treatment plant but also from the 3rd Pressure Zone while eliminating the 5th Pressure Zone (Olympic Heights). This connection would also be able to provide
water north of the NW Arterial (Sageville Area), and west of Highway 52 North along the N. W. Arterial and Kennedy Road. This project would include the
installation of approx. 5,020 feet of 12" diameter water main. There would also be electrical and maintenance savings cost with the removal of Olympic Heights
pump station. This project optimizes the full benefits of the Roosevelt Water Tower.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the development of a City of Dubuque Water Supply, Process Evaluation, and Distribution Master Plan. Over the past few decades, the
City of Dubuque has experienced an increase in development, both residential and commercial, and growth of the community beyond the distribution and storage
system original footprint. Most notably, the water infrastructure has expanded to include Twin Ridge to the south and Vernon and Barrington Lakes water systems
to the west, and having reliable and dependable water infrastructure is critical to supporting all of the City's customers today and tomorrow. As the City looks to the
future outlined in the Comprehensive Plan and with the completion of the SW Arterial, it is increasingly important that the existing water infrastructure is
hydraulically analyzed to determine its capacity and capability to serve. FY24 included funding via the current City Wide Improvements SRF loan to complete a
master plan. A master plan will serve to provide direction in the development of alternative and additional water supply sources and treatment facilities, improve
customer service through the evaluation of the pressure zones serving Dubuque, evaluate the existing aging water treatment plant and its processes, and
determine a strategy for systematically replacing/rehabilitating aging infrastructure.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project requests the replacement of Water Meter Interface Units and Registers used for the purpose of Water and Sewer billing. The costs per year include
the replacement of the estimated number of units of MIUs and Registers based on known failure rates and the labor that may be required to replace the units when
internal resources are not available. In 2009, the City of Dubuque conducted a city-wide water meter replacement program. All meters were replaced with Neptune
brand water meters. Each part and product warranty varied with the meter assemblies. Meter interface unites (MIUs) replacement warranty was 100% for the first
10 years. For each year thereafter, the warranty was pro-rated, and the City would be required to pay a portion of the MIU replacement. Starting in year eleven (11)
the City pays 30% and each year thereafter the City's percentage goes up 5%, until the warranty is finished in 2034. Having discussed a proactive replacement
program with Neptune and local supplier Ferguson Water Works, a cost-effective way to replace the meters at a lower cost to the City would be to conduct a 5-year
replacement program, in lieu of replacing the MIUs over the remaining prorated warranty period. This will reset the full warranty on replaced MIUs. The project
provides funding for a proactive 5-year MIU replacement program which can be funded through SRF. Note that the project is to be carried by both Water and
Sanitary Sewer funding. FY22 Funding reflects the replacement of 4557 MIUs to be replaced at a reduced cost as they would still be under full warranty, and years
FY23 thru FY32 reflect the replacement of 5,000 MIUs per year to complete the project for those MIUs no longer under warranty. As part of the program, Ferguson
Water Works will be making an investment estimated to be $240,000 in the necessary infrastructure to support the City's transition from the R450 system to the
R900 System. The investment includes new collectors and necessary wiring and conduit at 15 sites to support the new technology. This Project also provides
funding for water registers. The Registers carry a 10-year full replacement warranty, after which, the City will be responsible for the costs of replacement parts.
There are currently 18,067 Registers that will need to be replaced as they fail. The rate of failure is estimated at 1,350 per year equating to $130,950 per year.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding for replacement of the aging boilers at the Eagle Point Water Treatment Plant. Initial conversations with vendors and insurance
inspectors has brought to light the need for engineering of the boiler system. Changes to HVAC/Boiler codes will require changes to the water treatment facility to
be compliant with said codes. FY25 funding will be used to hire a boiler engineering consultant to appropriately size and design a system to replace the main
Water Plant Treatment's two boilers. FY26 funding will supplement any additional Engineering costs and retrofit the building to bring it up to current code. The
existing boilers were installed in 1995 and are at the end of their service life. New boilers will be more fuel efficient and will contribute to less carbon emissions.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding for repairs and rehabilitation associated with the City's groundwater supply (wells, pumps, motors) including source water protection
of the well field and the raw water transmission lines from the wells to the treatment plant. The City draws from both shallow and deep wells and each well should
be inspected every 5 years and 10 years respectively, barring any known issues. The wells should be inspected, and the well screen cleaned to remove sediment
or debris that may be reducing well output. FY26 funding provides for the rehabilitation of Well 10. FY27 funding provides for the rehabilitation of Wells 2 & 9.
FY28 funding provides for the Rehabilitation of Well 5. The out years provides funding to continue the 5-year program maintenance. The well field from where the
City draws its drinking water supply was subject to the Safe Drinking Water Act amendments of 1996, which required a Source Water Assessment. The
Assessment included evaluating the level of protection that was in place to protect sources of drinking water. The well field should be evaluated to determine what
improvements are necessary to ensure the City is continuing to assess the protective measures in place for the City's drinking water supply.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding for the installation of water main on Seippel Rd to Pennsylvania Ave and along Middle Rd to Sundown Rd. The project includes
13,300 feet of water main and a pump station. The utilities have not been requested by property owners for the previously annexed areas and the City does not
know when it will be necessary to construct the utilities. Due to this uncertainty, design and construction are budgeted beyond Fiscal Year 2030. If the utilities are
requested prior to Fiscal Year 2028, the City will adjust the budget as necessary to comply with the requests. The City has completed action steps adopted by the
City Council as a result of the previous annexation study and has either completed or budgeted the balance of utility extensions necessary to serve citizens and
businesses within the annexed areas. To maintain the City's ability to meet new growth demands, it is necessary to position ourselves for the future demand by
identifying those growth areas and the costs associated with extending City services. As land develops, the City anticipates recovering a portion of costs through
connection fees.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project funds the replacement of aging HVAC equipment at the Water & Resource Recovery Center (W&RRC) and sanitary sewer lift stations. The W&RRC
and lift station HVAC systems use a number of components including, but not limited to: louvers, fans, gravity roof ventilators, rooftop units, make-up air units, gas-
fired unit heaters, electric unit heaters, and water source heat pumps. Corrosive gasses, including hydrogen sulfide, reduce the life expectancy of many of these
components. Corrosion of copper and electronic components has resulted in more frequent HVAC repairs over the last several years. Functioning HVAC units are
particularly important for maintaining the climate in the electronic motor control centers for each builidng at the WRRC and at each lift station.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the replacement of the facility's bar screens, which are a vital part of our wastewater treatment process. Bar screens are the first line of
defense, designed to remove large debris and non-biodegradable materials from incoming wastewater. Over time, the existing bar screens have aged and require
replacement to maintain the facility's efficiency and ensure proper operation. The new bar screens are also needed to accommodate the increased flow to the
WRRC due to upstream capacity improvements. The new, more efficient bar screens, which will enhance the WRRC's ability to handle increased volumes of
wastewater, reduce the risk of equipment damage, and minimize disruptions caused by debris buildup. The new screens will improve the overall treatment
process, contribute to the protection of the environment, and ensure the reliability of Dubuque’s wastewater infrastructure for years to come. A FY25 allocation for
Bar Screen Replacement provides funding to refurbish the existing bar screens to operate until the capacity issues require the replacement with new screens
outlined for FY30 and FY31.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for improvements to the WRRC facility to address nutrient reduction requirements and increase plant BOD. TSS, and flow treatment capacity.
In October of 2022, the WRRC's NPDES permit was amended based on a nutrient reduction study commissioned by the City and submitted to the Iowa
Department of Natural Resources (IDNR). The permit requires the City to prepare and submit an updated nutrient reduction study report no later than November 1,
2027. The study will involve researching new or additional treatment technologies for the reduction of nitrogen and phosphorus. The updated report must include
an updated schedule for making operational changes and/or installing new or additional treatment technologies to achieve the goal of 66% reduction in total
nitrogen and a 75% reduction in phosphorus. It is anticipated that nutrient reduction upgrades such as the MLE treatment process will be done in conjunction with
the next major facility upgrades necessitated by pollutant loadings (e.g., BOD, TSS, and flow) and influent flow from the community.
While treatment technology might provide other options to consider, it is anticipated that the nutrient reduction improvements will involve modifications to the high-
purity oxygen-activated sludge basins for the implementation of a Modified Ludzack Ettinger (MLE) nitrification/denitrification process for the removal of nitrogen.
For phosphorus removal, it is anticipated that a sidestream removal system might be employed that results in the harvesting or sequestering struvite (magnesium
ammonium phosphate) to remove phosphorus from the centrate or directly from the digested sludge. To accomodate increased BOD and TSS loading, it is
anticipated that a cloth media filtration system will be used. It uses specially designed cloth filters to trap fine particles and reduce BOD levels in treated effluent.
Wastewater passes through the cloth media, where solids are captured, while the filtered water moves through for further treatment or discharge.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the replacement of the 30KVA Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) unit located in Building 80. This UPS is essential for providing
continuous power to critical systems, including the SCADA servers, City Network data racks, original site access controls, and burglar/fire alarms. In the event of a
power outage, the UPS ensures that these systems remain operational long enough for backup generators to start and transfer power, preventing any damage or
disruption to vital monitoring and control functions at the facility.
The existing UPS is nearing the end of its lifecycle and is being phased out, meaning it will no longer be supported by the manufacturer in the near future.
Continued use of this outdated unit could lead to increased maintenance costs and higher risks of system failure during power outages. Additionally, the batteries,
fan, and capacitors require replacement, further justifying the need for a more reliable solution. Replacing the UPS with a new unit will ensure uninterrupted
service, protect critical infrastructure, and reduce the risk of downtime or data loss. This investment is necessary to maintain the operational integrity of the
WRRC’s systems and to safeguard the facility’s ability to respond to power interruptions.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The project involves replacing various cable assemblies and wiring harnesses within the UV system at the WRRC. This includes the installation of new 20-foot
lamp cables (red, white, and blue), limit switch cables, sensor and lid cables, as well as different lengths of wiring harnesses for lamp power, motor/limit switches,
and sensor connections. The replacement work is aimed at ensuring reliable connectivity and proper functioning of the UV module system, critical for effective
wastewater treatment operations. The UV cable assemblies and wiring harnesses typically have a useful life of 5-7 years. They have been in service for over ten
years resulting in reliability issues.
The replacement of the UV cable assemblies and wiring harnesses is necessary to maintain the integrity and reliability of the UV disinfection system is required for
the City to meet its NPDES permit disinfection requirements. Over time, cables and harnesses can degrade due to exposure to moisture, UV radiation, and
electrical loads, leading to potential failures or reduced efficiency. Upgrading these components ensures consistent performance, minimizes the risk of unplanned
downtime, and extends the overall lifespan of the UV system. The proactive replacement also aligns with best practices for preventive maintenance, helping to
avoid costly repairs and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards for water quality.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The project involves replacing the existing chiller used in the gas production and handling system at the Water & Resource Recovery Center. The current chiller is
an integral component of the biogas conditioning process, working alongside low-pressure and high-pressure skids to cool biogas and remove excess moisture
before further compression and conditioning.
The current chiller, in service for 12 years, is approaching the end of its typical 10-15 year lifespan and has required increased maintenance over the past year to
remain operational. Replacing the chiller will improve reliability, reduce downtime, and prevent moisture-related issues that could damage downstream equipment.
A new, more efficient chiller will enhance the overall performance of the biogas system, lower maintenance costs, and ensure continued compliance with best
practices for critical infrastructure.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
Project involves the installation of an odor monitoring system at the Water & Resource Recovery Center (WRRC). It consists of a network of electronic nose (e-
nose) units around the perimeter of the WRRC for real-time monitoring of odor emissions from the treatment plant, helping to identify and address any potential
odor issues before they impact surrounding communities. The e-nose units will be mounted on existing light poles and connected to the facility’s Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system.
Current odor monitoring methods rely heavily on measured reductions in hydrogen sulfide within the treatment systems, manual inspections, and community
feedback. Because the WRRC is not the only odor producing facility in the city/county, tracking odor complaints have limited value as to how effective our odor
reduction efforts are. The use of multiple odor detectors around the perimeter of the WRRC will allow for data-driven decision-making based on the odors actually
originating from the site. The information from the odor monitoring system will allow for adjusting operations and addressing odor control activities more
strategically, making it possible to target specific problem areas rather than applying general solutions with immeasurable results.

Providing the Industrial Pretreatment Coordinator with a dedicated vehicle for traveling to industrial facilities ensures efficient and timely performance of essential
inspections and compliance monitoring. The coordinator frequently visits various industrial sites to verify discharges, conduct sampling, and respond to issues—
tasks that require specialized equipment that is cumbersome to transport without proper storage.
The Environmental Coordinator frequently travels to numerous food establishments to perform on-site inspections to ensure compliance with FOG regulations,
thereby preventing blockages and overflows in the wastewater system. Having a dedicated vehicle enables the coordinator to carry specialized equipment and
materials needed for inspections. It also allows for timely responses to potential non-compliance issues, demonstrating the City's commitment to public health,
environmental protection, and effective wastewater management.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This CIP provides for a 100-Ton Electric Hydraulic Shop Press. The heavy-duty, electric-powered press is designed for industrial maintenance tasks. Capable of
delivering 100 tons of force, it features an adjustable work table, a hydraulic cylinder with an electric pump, and a built-in pressure gauge for precision. Its durable
steel construction and safety shields ensure reliable performance and operator safety, making it ideal for pressing bearings, bushings, and other components.
The WRRC’s existing press, which is over 25 years old, no longer meets current safety and operational standards. The outdated press lacks modern safety
features such as shields and force gauges, increasing risks during use and limiting its functionality. A new 100-Ton Electric Hydraulic Shop Press offers significantly
higher capacity and improved precision, enabling the WRRC maintenance team to perform complex repairs in-house. This upgrade will reduce reliance on external
vendors, lower repair costs, and minimize equipment downtime, ensuring uninterrupted operation of critical facility systems. This investment reflects WRRC’s
commitment to safety, operational efficiency, and cost-effective maintenance solutions.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for an Airport Pavement Management System (APMS) update, which is a review and analysis of all airfield pavement to document pavement
condition and develop a strategy for airfield pavement maintenance. This study is required by the Federal Aviation Administration as justification for all airfield
reconstruction or rehabilitation projects and facilitates capital improvement planning. Formerly, airports were required to report runway strength as a pavement
condition number (PCN). The Federal Aviation Administration has updated this requirement to be in alignment with International Civil Aviation Organization
guidelines and now requires airports to report runway strength as a pavement classification rating (PCR). Aircraft operators and airports use/compare these
numbers to aircraft classification ratings (ACR) to determine if a pavement is suitable to operate a given aircraft on. This APMS is required every three years by the
Federal Aviation Administration.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funds for the milling of ten (10) centerline miles of asphalt streets and ten (10) centerline miles in the following years. This project provides for
the hiring of a private milling contractor to grind a full-street-width pass to remove up to 2 inches of old asphalt from the street. The millings are then loaded onto
city trucks and hauled to a local asphalt plant to be recycled into new hot mix asphalt. All milling is done by a private contractor with cleanup, hauling, and repaving
of the streets completed by Public Works department crews. Keeping road pavement in good shape saves money and energy and reduces greenhouse gas
emissions, more than offsetting pollution generated during road construction, according to a new study. Over the past twenty-six years, the Public Works
Department has made great progress in maintaining Dubuque's asphalt pavements by completing overlay projects on 247,10 centerline miles of asphalt streets.
Since January 1, 2014, the City has been required to construct or reconstruct virtually all curb ramps at all street intersections and crosswalks included in the
annual asphalt overlay program forcing a reduction in centerline miles overlayed.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the ADA curb ramp replacement project 5421000002 and curb replacement project (#5421000001).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funds for an annual program to install ADA curb ramps at various locations throughout the city in conjunction with the Public Works five (5)
centerline mile asphalt overlay program and also in the following years. This program is managed by the Engineering Department and coordinated with the Public
Works Department's asphalt overlay program. In July of 2013, the Iowa Department of Transportation (IDOT) received additional information from the Federal
Department of Justice further clarifying what constitutes resurfacing. Based on these clarifications, as of January 1, 2014, any alterations to an existing street's
crosswalk, including asphalt resurfacing and "mill and fill" projects, require that existing curb ramps adhere to the latest ADA standards. While many of these
corners have existing ramps, only a few of Dubuque's streets and alleys have curb ramps that meet current ADA standards. This project ensures that each
intersection would be retrofitted with ADA-mandated curb ramps when a street receives a maintenance overlay. With the installation and upgrade to the ADA curb
ramps as part of the asphalt overlay program, we improve accessibility for those with disabilities in our community as well as pedestrians seeking to travel the
streets and sidewalks safely.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for an annual program to replace deteriorated curb and gutter and related pavement at locations throughout the city. Priority is given to
streets scheduled for the Public Works Department's asphalt paving program and projects associated with improvements to sidewalks and driveways by
homeowners. All work is done by private contractors. This project supplements the Public Works Department's regular curb reconstruction program. There are
many streets in Dubuque that have good driving surfaces but have badly deteriorated limestone or concrete curbing. This program provides for hiring private
contractors to replace curbing in poor condition on streets that are not scheduled, or anticipated to be scheduled, for reconstruction. Priority is also given to
replacing poor curbing on streets where ADA curb ramps are being installed. On any given year, the Public Works Department receives numerous curb
replacement requests related to the asphalt overlay program and property owner projects that are not able to be completed due to workloads.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the Asphalt Milling Program and the ADA Curb Ramp Program
OUTCOME
Connected Community: Equitable Transportation, Technology Infrastructure and Mobility: Have well-designed, well maintained Complete Streets (including streets,
sidewalks, and bike lanes) throughout our Dubuque community.
FUNDING RESTRICTIONS
This project may only be funded by Sales Tax Fund (30%) and Road Use Tax Fund.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for hiring private contractors to remove and replace, or assist the Public Works Department in removing and replacing, deteriorated concrete
panels in concrete streets. All work is closely coordinated with, or under the direction of, the Engineering Department and its street reconstruction program. Many
concrete streets in the City are in need of full-depth concrete section replacement. Defects such as offset or spalling transverse joints create a poor riding surface.
Surface and joint defects usually lead to other pavement deformation, such as pavement blow ups, settlements, cracks, and/or potholes. Timely panel
replacements and section repairs extend the life of these concrete streets and usually preclude the need for asphalt overlays or total reconstruction projects.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funds to replace traffic and street name signs, along with rusted and/or twisted street and traffic signposts and poles, located along street
right-of-way throughout the city. Progress has been made over the past years to replace street name signs with new signs that meet federal requirements for size
and reflectivity, as required by the Federal Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. However, regulatory, warning, and ground-mounted guide signs must be
more reflective than many of the City's current signs are. While all compliance dates for replacing sub-standard signs have been removed from the Federal
Register, the responsibility to upgrade replacement signs to the new standard has not been diminished; therefore, all new signs that are installed must meet the
new standards. This project also provides for the replacement of older signposts and poles with new powder-coat-painted channel posts, square tubing galvanized
posts or 2" powder- coat-painted poles. Galvanized or powder-coated signposts and poles are much more resistant to corrosion and discoloration due to abrasion,
winter weather, exposure to chlorides, and UV rays. Replacing Dubuque's substandard signs, and concurrently replacing the old signposts and poles, would
significantly improve public right-of-way aesthetics.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for an annual program to perform post-flood repairs and Corps-of-Engineers-required maintenance along the City's flood control protection
system. This project supplements the Public Works Department's floodwall operations activity budget by providing funding that would allow for post-flood and
Corps-of-Engineers-required infrastructure repairs. As the floodwall's infrastructure age and the frequency of flood events continues to increase, the almost-regular
need for extraordinary repairs also has increased. This appropriation request would provide adequate funds to perform timely repairs, which in turn assures the
integrity of the flood control system. Repairs may include rip-rap replacement, pump overhauls, gate repairs, floodwall, and levee repairs, dredging, debris
removal, and associated storm sewer outlet remedial work.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funds for the replacement of sewer maintenance unit # 2703. This unit is a 2014 Freightliner. It is used daily to clean sewer pipe manholes for
the City's gravity-flow sanitary sewer collection system and the City's stormwater collection systems. The self-contained, high-pressure water jet and vacuum units
use various types of cleaner heads to remove debris and roots form Dubuque’s sanitary sewer system to prevent basement backups and above-ground overflows.
This unit is also used to clean storm sewer pipes, intakes and litter control baskets along the Bee Branch waterway. Replacing this unit in 2030 will provide the
Public Works Department with a reliable unit for maintaining Dubuque's sanitary sewer system, as required by the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) and the federal Clean Water Act.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funds to hire a private contractor to chemically treat up to 12,000 lineal feet of sanitary sewer lines throughout the city each year. Tree roots in
sanitary sewer lines are one of the major causes of sanitary sewer clogs, backups into homes, and overflows onto streets and private properties. Tree roots are
extremely invasive when seeking moisture and typically invade sanitary sewer pipes through cracks and open joints. They then grow into thick natural curtains,
collecting solids and greases and eventually causing major clogs, backups, and overflows. In-pipe chemical treatment of roots kills the invasive roots and mitigates
future root growth for up to five years. This annual program reduces the number of sanitary sewer overflows and the number of private homes damaged due to
sewer backups each year. This program is also noted in the City's Capacity, Management, Operations, and Maintenance (CMOM) Program, which was approved
by the United States Environmental Protection Agency in 2012.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is not related to other capital projects.
OUTCOME
Connected Community: Equitable Transportation, Technology Infrastructure and Mobility: Have well-designed, well maintained Complete Streets (including streets,
sidewalks, and bike lanes) throughout our Dubuque community.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This annual project provides for the replacement of one (1) solid waste collection vehicles in FY2026 (# 3401).
The different styles of trucks will be used to collect customers' garbage, bulky items, recyclables, and yard waste and/or food scraps manually and/or by using a
hydraulic lifting system for tipper carts. The city will continue to phase in automated sideloaders. Phasing in automated collection trucks will help improve collection
efficiency, improve workers' safety, and increase neighborhood aesthetics through reduced litter associated with the use of garbage bags. These trucks will be
eight to ten years old by their proposed replacement years.

through a well-maintained, operational stormwater system.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding for the reconstruction of catch basins due to their condition and effectiveness. It also provides for the systematic replacement of the
approximately 800 older model curb opening style catch basins throughout the city which were the standard prior to 1990. The current standard catch basin is
much more efficient at collecting stormwater than the old style catch basins. Old catch basins do not collect the desired amount of street drainage causing
unnecessary street flooding. Some old style catch basins have larger openings which can pose a safety risk to pedestrians. Finally, this project provides funding to
replace catch basins as needed as part of the City's annual asphalt overlay program.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is not related to other capital projects.
OUTCOME
Sustainable Environment: Preserving and Enhancing Natural Resources - Reduce potential flooding through flood plain management, mitigation and protection
through a well-maintained, operational stormwater system.
FUNDING RESTRICTIONS
This project may only be funded by Stormwater Construction Funds.
PROJECT ADDRESS/SERVICE AREA
The improvements occur at various locations to be determined.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the installation of drain tile to collect sump pump discharge and direct it to a storm sewer. A significant number of homes in Dubuque utilize
sump pumps to prevent groundwater from damaging basements. In many instances, sump pump discharge is directed through the curb into the street. While
streets serve as part of the public stormwater drainage system, constant flow of tile discharge can damage streets and, in some instances, result in hazardous,
slick street surfaces. This funding provides for addressing trouble spots where icing or algae impact intersections or where icing becomes extreme and its removal
is beyond the capability of the average homeowner. When possible, the work is done in conjunction with street resurfacing projects and other Public Works efforts.
Since 2007, over thirty of the more severe problem areas have been addressed. The cost per site has varied from $3,500 to $45,000. Some sites are more costly
because they require the installation of additional storm sewer and catch basins; these are usually funded through unique CIP projects. With approximately
$100,000 budgeted per year, the remaining identified and verified problem areas will be addressed by the end of FY2029. Two higher priority areas (Trygg and
Westmore) are to be addresses as unique capital improvement program projects.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is not related to other capital projects but can be coordinated with the Public Works Asphalt Overlay Program.
OUTCOME
Livable Neighborhoods and Housing: Great Place to Live - Have well-designed and well-maintained public infrastructure and facilities serving neighborhoods.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the elimination of the City's brick sanitary sewer manholes and replacement/rehabilitation of sewers as needed to eliminate stormwater
from entering into the wastewater collection system. Brick manholes are highly susceptible to allowing stormwater into the sanitary sewer system which can
overwhelm the system and cause the stormwater/wastewater mixture to overflow into basements, streets, creeks, streams, and rivers. The City's NPDES
stormwater permit requires the City to eliminate this discharge in order to protect the biological integrity of the receiving waters. Replacing porous brick manholes
with water-tight manholes reduces the flow of stormwater into the sanitary sewer system and supports the city's efforts to comply with the requirements identified in
the USEPA/IDNR/City of Dubuque Consent Decree.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the Sanitary Sewer Manhole Replacement project (CIP# 5581500020).
OUTCOME
Sustainable Environment: Preserving and Enhancing Natural Resources - Reduce potential flooding through flood plain management, mitigation and protection
through a well-maintained, operational stormwater system.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the proactive repair and replacement of storm sewer outfalls that have fallen into disrepair. There are over fifty locations throughout the
city where storm sewers outlet into a drainage ditch. Some of these are in remote locations which are difficult to access making even routine maintenance of end-
of-pipe erosion protection challenging. When end-of-pipe erosion controls fail, it compromises the integrity of the storm sewer requiring repairs. Repairing a single
outfall can cost between $30,000 and $40,000. This funding allows for repairing two or three outfalls per year, prioritizing and repairing outfalls with the highest
need. The City's NPDES Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) federal Clean Water Act permit requires proper maintenance of the drainage system with
the ultimate goal of restoring and maintaining the integrity of U.S. waters such as Catfish Creek and the Mississippi.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is to provide a share of funding from the stormwater sewer utility in support of the City's efforts to meeting the City Council goal of implementing an
enterprise asset management system through use of a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS). Enterprise asset management combines
software, systems and services, and system support to maintain and optimize the functionality of operational assets across the lifecycle of an asset. Municipal
enterprise infrastructure assets refer to the physical and digital assets owned and managed by local governments for which they are accountable.
A CMMS is utilized to generate work orders and preventative maintenance schedules, track equipment usage and maintenance history, generate alerts for needed
action, track spare parts, maintain asset condition assessment data, and much more.The City currently utilizes several separate CMM software for different
functions or assets, and a broader scope or single vendor solution for a consistent CMMS tracking each utility's enterprise assets is desired.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is in support of the City's efforts to meeting the City Council goal to reduce potential flooding through floodplain management, mitigation, and
protection through a well-maintained and operational stormwater system. In 2001, the City hired a consultant to generate a citywide stormwater hydraulic model
and to identify/delineate the major drainage basins within the City. This Drainage Basin Master Plan was utilized and updated in 2013 to include the multiple
phases of the Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project. This project is intended to expand upon these previous efforts by the City to more effectively
evaluate and implement stormwater improvements to meet the City's goals to provide floodplain management, mitigation and protection throughout the City.
Management of the City's Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Program requires an understanding of how the infrastructure is performing and how
potential, rapid expansion related to growth might impact the system. To maximize the return on investment as to how all stormwater sewer utility dollars are spent
in combination with constrained capital and operating budgets, a stormwater management program that identifies and helps prioritize necessary improvements in
the short-, mid-, and long-term helps to ensure the system continues to meet the needs of the community and to provide planning level budgets for all
recommendations.
The project will assist City staff in establishing a strategic and proactive plan for the management of the sanitary sewer system that shall:
• Develop repeatable and dynamic processes that enable staff to quickly evaluate asset data to assess condition, level of service, and criticality.
• Rank stormwater capital improvement projects based on risk analysis and system performance.
• Identify stormwater utility staffing and resource needs.
• Optimize existing operations and maintenance procedures.
• Evaluate system capacity and improvement requirements to facilitate future city growth areas identified in the Annexation Study.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project involves the construction of a maintenance facility near 16th and Elm Streets near the Bee Branch Creek on the former Blum Metal Recycling facility.
The Flood Mitigation Maintenance Facility will provide the work space and equipment storage areas necessary to provide adequate maintenance of the Bee
Branch Creek and the 16th Street Detention Basin (Bee Branch Pond) to ensure that the facilities are able to function at an optimum level when a flash flood
occurs. In addition to providing work space for City employees assigned to maintaining the Bee Branch Creek Greenway, it will provide space for the boat used to
access all areas of the creek. It will provide public restrooms which will double as a storm shelter for people within the greenway in the event that severe weather
approaches. Parking will also be provided as part of the project. The use of the existing buildings is still under consideration and if the property will be shared with
an outside organization. EPA funded cleanup activities were concluded in FY23. Depending on the ultimate use of the property and how it is redeveloped,
additional environmental work may be necessary. Design of the facility will begin in FY25 with construction anticipated in FY28 based on available State Flood
Mitigation Program funding. This project is Phase 9 of the Bee Branch Watershed Flood Mitigation Project.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This provides for the upgrading of the storm sewers on 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, 29th, and 30th Streets between White and Elm Streets. Storm sewers will be upsized
to handle stormwater runoff from heavy rains. While each street will be considered individually, the storm sewer capacity will be expanded to ten times the current
capacity. Typically, storm sewers are designed to handle rain in small quantities. But with the completion of the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project, upgrading
the local storm sewers will significantly decrease localized street flooding that can also lead to basement flooding. To limit the sewer upgrade costs, upgrading the
various local street drainage systems will be done when possible in concert with the Street Program and the Public Works Department's annual asphalt overlay
program. The funding in FY28 will provide for the design of the improvements.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the installation of an energy dissipation, let-down structure where stormwater flows into the NW Arterial Detention Basin from the west.
Currently, stormwater from the west flows down into the detention basin over a rip-rap (rock) flume. On multiple occasions over the past few years, the stormwater
flows have washed away the rip-rap and caused erosion and damage to the detention basin with maintenance and repair costs becoming increasingly excessive.
Construction of the energy dissipation, let-down structure will eliminate the recurring erosion and maintenance issues. The project was previously budgeted.
However, the cost of the recommended improvements exceeded the established budget.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the extension of 380 feet of storm sewer along Embassy West Drive to address a drainage issue on Ambassador Court. The current
drainage system for Ambassador Court is tasked with accommodating drainage from parts of Pennsylvania and and Embassy West Drive. Due to capacity issues,
stormwater overwhelms the existing storm sewer such that stormwater will flow out of the system and flood Ambassador Court from curb to curb and flooding
adjacent homes. It would be most cost-effective to construct the improvements along with the Public Works Department's asphalt overlay program.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This work should be done in conjunction with the City's annual asphalt overlay program.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The purpose of this project is to extend storm sewer and drain tile from Kaufmann Avenue, south along Trygg Drive, to Theda Drive to address a constant icing
problem on Theda and icing and algae buildup on Trygg Drive. Private drain tile and sump pump discharge is directed through the curb into both Theda Drive and
Trygg Drive. With curb and gutter sections, the streets serve as part of the public stormwater drainage system. However, the constant flow of tile and sump pump
discharge can damage streets and result in hazardous, slick street surfaces. This funding provides for addressing the conditions on both Trygg and Theda where
icing becomes extreme and removal requires significant efforts by Public Works crews in the winter. It would be best to coordinate the construction to coincide with
the Public Works Annual Asphalt Overlay Program.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is not related to other capital projects.
OUTCOME
Livable Neighborhoods and Housing: Great Place to Live - Have well-designed and well-maintained public infrastructure and facilities serving neighborhoods.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for lining and associated grouting of sanitary sewers at various locations throughout the city. Lining a sewer pipe results in a new sewer pipe
(inside the old) with a useful life of 50 years or more. Lining a pipe can be far more cost effective as it does not require excavation and associated surface
restoration. Pipe lining improves flow characteristics, reduces I&I, and eliminates maintenance issues such as roots and debris buildup. The City's Capacity,
Management, Operation, and Maintenance (CMOM) program approved by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, indicates that the City will budget for lining
sanitary sewers and associated manholes.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the Sanitary Sewer Asset Management Program (CIP #5581500026) and the Sanitary Sewer CCTV Inspection, Cleaning, & Assessment
project (CIP #5581500013), which will identify and prioritize the sewers for lining.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
As of Fiscal Year 2019, the City had Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) records and condition assessments of 50% of the gravity sewer system. This project
provides for the systematic CCTV inspection, cleaning, and condition assessment of the remaining 50% within a 10-year period (FY20-FY29). Inspecting each
sewer pipe will provide the condition of each pipe so that the City can schedule and undertake proactive measures to improve performance levels of the system -
identify degeneration that might lead to blockages, collapses, and/or sanitary sewer overflows. While the Public Works Department does inspect several miles of
sewer each year, their efforts are rightly concentrated on sewers with known maintenance issues. As a result, there are sections of the City system that have not
been televised within the past fifteen years and their condition remains unknown. Although not directly related to other capital projects, it will inform the prioritization
of sewer replacement and sewer lining efforts.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the Sanitary Sewer Asset Management Program (CIP #5581500023).
OUTCOME
Livable Neighborhoods and Housing: Great Place to Live - Have well-designed and well-maintained public infrastructure and facilities serving neighborhoods.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the replacement/rehabilitation of aging and deteriorated sanitary sewer manholes. The City sanitary sewer system includes more than
7,500 manholes. With a typical design life of 60 years, over 2,000 have outlived their expected service life. There are 600 that are over 100 years old. Every year,
in the course of their daily maintenance activities inspecting manholes and sewer mains, the Public Works Department identifies manholes in need of replacement,
either due to structural/safety issues or due to excessive levels of I&I. While some manholes are replaced along with sanitary sewer pipes, this project provides for
the timely rehab/replacement of individual sanitary sewer manholes. It also provides for the replacement of manholes in conjunction with the street overlay
program undertaken annually by the Public Works Department. Structural defects can lead to collapse. Excessive inflow or infiltration (I&I) of groundwater or
surface water into the sanitary sewer can lead to sanitary sewer overflows and basement backups. This project is related to Stormwater Infiltration & Inflow

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project addresses reliability improvements to the Terminal Street Lift Station and Cedar Street Lift Station, as well as, the associated 30-inch diameter Cedar
Street and 42-inch diameter Terminal Street force mains that connect the two lift stations to the Water & Resource Recovery Center (WRRC). The original project
was developed in FY 2016 to examine the force mains first and lift stations second. However, the priority order was shifted to first examine Terminal Street Lift
Station. Funding provides for new sluice gates, pump gates and repairs to the lift station foundation wall along with dry weather pumps and a new wet well to
handle smaller average daily flows that will reduce stress and strain on the larger pumps currently in the lift station which are not designed to operate with current
daily/low flows. The funds also provide for ancillary improvements including a new gravity sewer connecting the new wet well to the existing lift station influent
manhole, a new magnetic flow meter, and hot-tap to the 42-inch FM to allow routing wastewater to the WRRC without it passing through Terminal Street lift station
or the valve house. The project funding is also for the replacement of the wet weather pumps, replace piping in the drywell, replacement piping inside Terminal
Street lift station that has deteriorated, complete new hardware and protective paint coatings of the lift station mechanical systems along with replacement
plumbing and needed electrical improvements and similar improvements to the Valve House. This project will also install camera and audio monitoring at the lift
station to reduce in-person staff inspections.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides Phase 1 for a new lift station within the Catfish Creek Interceptor Sewershed near Old Mill Road and 5,100 feet of new force main between
the lift station and the Water & Resource Recovery Center (W&RRC). The improvements include a 20 million gallon per day (MGD) lift station, dual force main pipe
to the Water & Recourse Recovery Center (W&RRC), and improvements at the W&RRC to accommodate the additional flow at the headworks of the treatment
system. The existing Catfish Creek Lift Station (CCLS) will remain in place, primarily serving the Granger Creek sewershed and properties along HWY 151-61.
The existing CCLS and W&RRC, were originally constructed in the late 1960’s. Since then, the community has grown and expanded. While the W&RRC was
updated in 2010, the CCLS was last studied and updated in 1995 based on a 25-year planning period. Based on the actual growth that has occurred since 1995,
the wastewater flows to the lift station are slightly higher than what was anticipated. Operating beyond the 25-year planning period, it was time to reevaluate the
CCLS. FY22 funding provided for the development of a facility plan to evaluate the existing CCLS and identify the need for potential upgrades. Multiple options
were considered, including upgrades to the existing lift station. The engineering analysis ultimately identified a preferred alternative: the Old Mill Road Lift Station
and Force Main improvements. Increased construction costs for FY25-26 was included to account for up to date equipment pricing and revised force main
alignments required from archeological review.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the phased relocation of 5,150 feet of the 12-inch diameter sanitary sewer that runs along the railroad tracks from Hawthorne Street to
Fengler Street. The existing clay tile sewer that was installed in the 1920's still functions; however, the influx of sand and proximity of the adjacent railroad tracks
has increasingly made the sewer difficult to maintain and indicates that groundwater is infiltrating into the pipe. The sewer has multiple failing sections and is
undersized from hydraulic modeling results. Proximity to the adjacent railroad prohibits access for maintenance or rehabilitation activities. The sewer requires
relocation to City right of way, with redirection of private laterals. The project is located adjacent to Consent Decree Sewershed 10.
The funding in FY28-29 will also provide for the design, permitting, and easement acquisition for the relocation of the track line sewer located between Hawthorne
St and Roosevelt St. The funding in FY29-30 will provide for the actual relocation of the track line sewer located between Hawthorne St and Roosevelt St.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for systematic upgrades to the Catfish Creek Sanitary Interceptor Sewer system which branches out along the South Fork Catfish, Middle
Fork Catfish, and North Fork Catfish creeks. The sewer system will be upsized from Old Mill Road along the South Fork Catfish Creek 6.9 miles to the Dubuque
Metropolitan Solid Waste Agency. The system will also be upsized along the Middle Fork Catfish Creek from Old Mill Road 9.9 miles to the Dubuque Industrial
Center West.
The Catfish Creek Interceptor Sewer was constructed circa 1960. Extending westward from the Water & Resource Recovery Center, it has allowed for the
development of nearly 2,500 acres over the last two decades which includes residential subdivisions, the Dubuque Industrial Center West, and service to the
Dubuque Metro Solid Waste Agency. The existing sanitary sewer collection system can accommodate the development to date. In order to accommodate the
wastewater flow from an additional 8,500 acres within the city (or possibly more than 20,000 acres in annexation areas) that can be served by the Catfish Creek
Sanitary Interceptor Sewer, upsizing the capacity of the sewer system is necessary.
The funding in FY25-26 will provide for the design, permitting, and easement acquisition for the improvements of the interceptor sewer system from Old Mill Road,
along the South Fork Catfish Creek, to North Cascade Road. The funding in FY26-27 will provide for the construction of the Southfork Catfish Creek Interceptor
Sewer from Old Mill Road to North Cascade Road.
The funding in FY27-28 will also provide for the design, permitting, and easement acquisition for the improvements of the interceptor sewer system from Old Mill
Road, along the Middle Fork Catfish Creek, to Brunskill Road. The funding in FY28-29 will provide for the construction of the Southfork Catfish Creek interceptor
sewer from Old Mill Road to Brunskill Road.
The funding for the design, permitting, easement acquisition, and construction for the improvements of the interceptor sewer system along the remainder of the
South Fork, the Middle Fork, and the North Fork was adjusted to the out years of the CIP budget based on the prioritization of improvements provided to staff.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The original total estimated cost in 2019 for all of the sewer upgrades was $66,930,500. The cost of the improvements have been increased by a 2% inflation rate
per year since the original CIP recommendation. Projects using State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan proceeds may be eligible for some level of loan forgiveness as a
result of the federal Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act which included a $300 million SRF allocation, requiring a portion of the loans to be forgivable. Based on
information from the State, Dubuque projects may be eligible for 20% loan forgiveness; however, the amount of forgivable loans available across the state is $14.6
million per year. As a result, the State will likely cap the amount of loan forgiveness available for each project.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for systematic upgrades to the Catfish Creek Sanitary Interceptor Sewer system which branches out along the South Fork Catfish, Middle
Fork Catfish, and North Fork Catfish creeks. The sewer system will be upsized from Old Mill Road along the South Fork Catfish Creek 6.9 miles to the Dubuque
Metropolitan Solid Waste Agency. The system will also be upsized along the Middle Fork Catfish Creek from Old Mill Road 9.9 miles to the Dubuque Industrial
Center West.
The Catfish Creek Interceptor Sewer was constructed circa 1960. Extending westward from the Water & Resource Recovery Center, it has allowed for the
development of nearly 2,500 acres over the last two decades which includes residential subdivisions, the Dubuque Industrial Center West, and service to the
Dubuque Metro Solid Waste Agency. The existing sanitary sewer collection system can accommodate the development to date. In order to accommodate the
wastewater flow from an additional 8,500 acres within the city (or possibly more than 20,000 acres in annexation areas) that can be served by the Catfish Creek
Sanitary Interceptor Sewer, upsizing the capacity of the sewer system is necessary.
The funding in FY25-26 will provide for the design, permitting, and easement acquisition for the improvements of the interceptor sewer system from Old Mill Road,
along the South Fork Catfish Creek, to North Cascade Road. The funding in FY26-27 will provide for the construction of the Southfork Catfish Creek Interceptor
Sewer from Old Mill Road to North Cascade Road.
The funding in FY27-28 will also provide for the design, permitting, and easement acquisition for the improvements of the interceptor sewer system from Old Mill
Road, along the Middle Fork Catfish Creek, to Brunskill Road. The funding in FY28-29 will provide for the construction of the Southfork Catfish Creek interceptor

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the stabilization of approximately 3,000 feet the City’s 42-inch diameter sanitary sewer force main that runs along the main channel of the
Mississippi from Maus Lake to the south. The work entails the reconstruction of the river embankment so that there is adequate cover and protection from the river
and debris floating along the river. It will also provide protection from river barges that travel up and down the river, sometimes tying off in areas where the existing
force main is exposed. The project will be done by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) through their Emergency Streambank Repair and Shoreline
Protection program (Section 14 of the Flood Control Act of 1946). Through that program, the USACE will design and construct the improvements. The USACE
began the Planning Design Analysis (PDA) in FY21. The USACE covers the initial $100,000. Anything above that amount is cost shared 50/50. The City budgeted
$100,000 in FY21 to cover its share of PDA costs. Currently estimated at $7.7 million, the construction costs will be known following the PDA to be completed in
early FY22. The City's share of the construction cost will be 35% of the total cost and it is due to the USACE up front, prior to construction. The City’s 42-inch
diameter sanitary sewer force main was constructed in 1977 with about 3,000 feet located along the banks of the Mississippi. It carries approximately 80 percent
(80%) of the City’s daily average flows to the Water and Resource Recovery Center. Over the years, erosion of the banks of the Mississippi have reduced the
ground cover (and protection) to the point where the pipe is showing in a few places. Because the flow is under pressure, if the force main was to be ruptured, it
would result in the discharge of thousands of gallons of untreated wastewater directly into the Mississippi.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This annual recurring budget provides for pavement markings on City streets. Markings typically include centerlines, lane lines, edge lines, curb medians, diagonal
gore markings, crosswalks, stop bars, arrows, word messages, railroad crossings, and disability symbols. Bike lanes and other multi- mobility elements are
included in the annual pavement marking program. In 2016 the City entered into an agreement with the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) to include
pavement markings on DOT-designated roadway segments within the City, and the Iowa DOT would reimburse the City for actual costs incurred. The City follows
Statewide Urban Design and Specification (SUDAS), Iowa DOT, and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) standards when implementing the
annual pavement marking program throughout the City.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This annual reoccurring budget provides funding for an annual program to perform design and construction for general street construction-related improvements.
In prior years, the City had an annual capital improvement budget that would collectively fund all construction-related improvements and the 5-Year Annual Street
Construction Program. This policy has been changed, and now the Annual Street Construction Program is budgeted as individual CIP's. As a result, an annual
program is needed to provide a funding mechanism to allow for the construction for general street construction repairs and related improvements as miscellaneous
projects develop. The Engineering Department routinely works on miscellaneous repair projects that occur, require a quick response and that are both unexpected
and not budgeted. This annual program will provide a funding source to cover the construction costs for those unanticipated small repair projects.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The City Council listed the East - West Corridor Capacity Improvement Implementation as a “top-priority” in their goals and priorities. In an effort to advance this
top priority, the City has already completed the following improvements:
2016 - Property Acquisition for $853,000
2017 - Grandview / Delhi Roundabout for $827,000
2018 - Loras / Grandview Traffic Signals for $370,300
2019 - University / Grandview Roundabout for $1,200,000
TOTAL $3,250,300 in improvements to date.
In December of 2021, the Mayor and City Council approved the selection of HDR, Inc. as the consultant to complete the preliminary engineering design and
environmental clearance phase to advance the development of east-west corridor capacity improvements along University Avenue.
Planning, preliminary engineering design, and the NEPA level clearance process has progressed on the east-west corridor capacity improvements but along the
way there have been changes for use of federal and state transportation funds that have created obstacles and challenges for completion of this project.
In March of 2022, with the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) funding allocation to the State of Iowa, the Iowa DOT announced the increase in new
federal funds will require additional Primary Road Funds (PRF) to be used as the State’s local match, which will impact the Iowa DOT’s ability to provide SWAP
(100%) funds for Local Public Agency (City) projects. As a result, effective January 2023, SWAP (100%) funding will no longer be available, and all DMATS STBG
allocations will be federal (80%) funds and will require a 20% local match.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION (Continued)
In December 2023, the City received official guidance from the Iowa DOT that the DMATS STBG funds allocated for the east-west corridor project, which were
converted from SWAP (100%) to now federal aid (80% / 20%). Those funds can only be used for eligible construction costs moving forward. Since the City
previously budgeted the east-west corridor project based on grant funds assisting with all phases of project development, including final design, property
acquisition, and construction, the City will need to evaluate how this significant shift in funding eligibility will impact the City's ability to develop and advance the
project.
Since the east-west corridor capacity improvements are a multi-year, multi-phased project, which transitioned from SWAP (100%) to Federal aid (80%/20%), and
that DMATS STBG funds can only be used for construction moving forward, the City has to identify local funding or grants to complete final design and conduct
property acquisition. Also, DMATS STBG funds can only pay for 80% of the construction costs, so the City must also identify local funding or grants to pay 20% of
the costs.
Because the DMATS STBG funding allocation cannot remain idle and unobligated while additional funding sources are identified for final design, property
acquisition, and construction, the City Council and DMATS Board authorized the reallocation of local STBG funds ($5,869,825) from this project funding to support
the RAISE Capital Infrastructure Implementation grant for the 14th Street Overpass project.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This annual reoccurring budget provides funding to either purchase material for Public Works to perform joint sealing or contract for the routing, cleaning and
sealing of pavement joints around the City of Dubuque. It is very important to seal cracks in asphalt and concrete pavements as a proactive preservation practice
to minimize water intrusion to extend the service life of the pavement. This will also include crack sealing of trail pavements. This project funding would supplement
the work Public Works currently performs. In FY 26 this work includes sealing joints on the Northwest Arterial bike trail. This also includes work to re-surface the
bike trail. It's been 19 years since the trail was paved and needs maintenance.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
With the decommissioning of the Alliant Energy Power Generation Plant on 7th Street and the eventual redevelopment / reuse of the property, this may allow the
City an opportunity to evaluate alternatives and the feasibility of developing a roadway through the Alliant site which would extend and connect Pine Street at 9th /
Kerper Boulevard to 7th Street. The potential extension of Pine Street to 7th Street would allow commercial traffic to use the US 61-151 on / off ramps at 9th Street
to access Pine Street to 7th. This would provide commercial vehicles that currently use 7th, 9th, Central, Washington and Jackson Streets through the Historic
Millwork District to get to the industrial businesses on 7th / Commercial Street a more efficient, safe, and direct route. The potential extension of Pine Street to 7th
Street would allow commercial traffic to bypass the Historic Mill District creating a safer neighborhood for residents, pedestrians, and bicyclists.
In May 2023, the City and Interstate Power and Light Company (IPL) executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Agreement for the potential purchase of
excess property at former power plant site. The City and IPL are currently working on survey plats and appraisal of the real estate. Upon completion, the City shall
either (a) provide written notice to IPL that City does not intend to purchase the real estate; or (b) provide written notice to IPL that City does intend to purchase the
real estate upon such terms and conditions as City approves in its sole discretion.
The FY26 programmed funding would allow for the City to perform an environmental assessment of potential site development and the potential acquisition of the
real estate. FY27 and FY28 programmed funding would allow for the design development and potential construction of a roadway through the Alliant site which
would connect Pine Street at 9th / Kerper Boulevard to 7th Street.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project would provide for the installation of flashing LED traffic signs and crosswalk warning devices at one location per year. The City receives several
requests each year for flashing stop signs and flashing pedestrian crossings. These devices would be solar-powered LED lights which use less power than
traditional bulbs. The device utilizes super-bright LED technology and a "stutter flash" that would flash at motorists 190 times in 30 seconds when activated called
a Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) . Results have shown that more than 90% of motorists stop when the LED stutter lights are activated by the
pedestrian. When the activation button is pushed, a friendly voice explains to pedestrians how to use the crosswalk. At night the button placards are illuminated so
pedestrians can see them. Upon activation, the entire area is illuminated, including where the pedestrian is standing, the pedestrian street signs, and the center of
the roadway in divided highways so the motorist can clearly see the entire crossing. The system would be radio-controlled and solar powered for maximum
efficiency. On the other years where a flashing cross-walk sign is not installed, funding is shown for flashing yield and stop signs as needed around the City for
additional reinforcement for the sign. The aviability of these flashing crosswalks at select intersection, midblock crossings or high pedestrian walk-ways will
continue to increase the connectivity and complete street elements throughout the City.This project funding will include money allocated for the foundations, poles,
signage and installation costs.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The City was awarded a $2.28 million US DOT RAISE Infrastructure Planning grant and a $25 million RAISE Capital grant to assist in funding for the project
entitled “Building Bridges to Employment and Equity (B2E2)”. The multi-year funding for this project will provide for the planning, design, and construction of a
multimodal transportation corridor project for proposed improvements to the Elm Street corridor, the 16th Street corridor, the Kerper Boulevard corridor, Chaplain
Schmitt Island corridor, and the proposed 14th Street railroad (vehicular and pedestrian) overpass bridge project.
The improved multimodal transportation corridors will connect vulnerable neighborhoods and low-income residents with economic opportunities, recreational
amenities and key community resources in the Kerper Boulevard Industrial Park, on Chaplain Schmitt Island, in downtown Dubuque and its Historic Millwork
District, and on the west side of the City via the downtown Intermodal Transportation Center.
Improving safety for all users is a key goal of the B2E2 project. The impending increase in train traffic due to the merger of the Canadian Pacific and Kansas City
Southern railroads is projected to double the number of trains passing daily through the downtown urban core of the City from 9 trains to 18 trains by 2027. A
primary focus of the B2E2 project is the elimination of an at-grade rail crossing conflict on 14th Street and provide for a proposed vehicular and pedestrian
204 Page 287 of 706
overpass bridge which will connect downtown residents to job opportunities while avoiding train crossing delays that negatively impact the safe and efficient
movement of people and goods to and from the Kerper Boulevard Industrial Park and Chaplain Schmitt Island.
The entire B2E2 project has been broken down into 15 separate elements with 9 elements needing to be delayed to future phases, and 6 elements were included
and awarded as part of the RAISE Capital grant. The project will focus on multimodal transportation corridors with “complete streets enhancements” along the Elm
Street and 16th Street corridors, an improved pedestrian/bike shared use path on the existing 16th Street Peosta Channel bridge to Chaplain Schmitt Island,
proposed roundabout intersections at 16th/Sycamore and at 16th/Greyhound Park/Admiral Sheehy Drive intersection, and vehicular and pedestrian overpass
bridge on 14th Street over the railroad tracks.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project will provide for the complete reconstruction and replacement of the Wildwood Drive Bridge which was originally constructed in 1970. Based on the
October 2023 bridge inspection, the bridge was classified as structurally deficient and recommended for replacement. Based on the age of the structure (53 years)
and the structural load rating of the existing concrete box culvert bridge (the sufficiency rating of 72.9), the bridge will now require a 12 month inspection cycle until
it can be replaced.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
In 2022, the Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT) completed a study to evaluate operational and capacity improvements along US20, between Cresent
Ridge and Old Highway, with a specific emphasis on the US20 / Northwest Arterial intersection. Several concepts and design variations were vetted, and a
preferred
alternative was selected. The proposed improvements recommend closing all at-grade accesses on the south side of US 20 between Old Highway and Crescent
Ridge, close the south leg of the NW Arterial intersection, and add a new south side frontage road between Old Highway and Crescent Ridge. The plan also
recommends closing all at-grade accesses on the north side of US 20 between Old Highway and Northwest Arterial and provide a new north side frontage road
extending east from Old Highway intersection. Additionally, the project proposes adding dual eastbound left turn lanes onto the Northwest Arterial, adding a
westbound bypass right turn lane onto the Northwest Arterial, and operational reconfiguration at the Northwest Arterial and Crescent Ridge intersections.
In partnership with the Iowa DOT, the City has identified approximately $5.5 million to assist in funding the proposed US20 / Northwest Arterial intersection
improvements, which will leverage a $12 million allocation from the Iowa DOT. The $17.5 million operational and capacity improvements have been recommended
by Iowa DOT staff for consideration in the Iowa DOT’s FY26-30 Transportation Improvement Program.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is identified in the comprehensive plan and is a City Council 2022-2024 High Priority. This project will provide funding to implement recommendations
outlined in the adopted Central Avenue Streetscape Master Plan along Central Avenue between 11th and 22nd Streets, as well as potential recommendations from
the traffic study currently underway for the Central and White Street corridors, with 4th Street to 11th Street coming beyond 2030.
The current Central Avenue and White Street corridor traffic study was completed in January 2025. These funds are intended to be flexible, whether that be design,
construction, amenities (such as transit stops, moveable amenities, and beautification efforts, etc.), or other needed improvements to implement the
recommendations of the Streetscape Master Plan and complete streets traffic study, especially additional offstreet parking. This project would utilize complete
street concepts and standards to accommodate pedestrians, bicyclists, transit, and other motor vehicles in the corridor. Special attention would be made to
creating a sense of place for this corridor. Requested funding between FY25 and FY30 totals $8,170,000 to support incremental improvements along the corridor.
However, full implementation of future Central Avenue Streetscape Master Plan improvements is programmed beyond FY30, at a planning level estimated cost of
$14 million.
The FY26 includes $400,000 for engineering design services and $1 million to create new public parking opportunities to replace on street spaces lost on Central
and White Streets. FY27 is to restripe the entire Central Avenue and White Street corridor, 4th-22nd, and continue the FY26 work. FY28 is improvements from 14th
- 17th Street. FY29 is improvements from 17th - 20th Street, and continue improvements to 14th -17th Streets. FY30 is installation of the Cycle Truck Lane on the
west side of White Street from 5th to 19th Street, and to continue improvements from 17th - 20th Streets. FY2031 and beyond will require $14 million in additional
investment to do 20th - 22nd, and 4th -14th Street on Central Avenue and White Street.

The Corridor is beginning to see private investment in building improvements and business location. The implementation of public infrastructure improvements is
needed to support and leverage that private investment by creating a more pedestrian-friendly, complete streets corridor and attracting residents from other areas
of the community.
It is anticipated that this project may have an impact on operating costs associated with infrastructure improvements, although those costs are unknown until the
specific improvements and amenities in the corridor are identified and implemented. These costs will be integrated into the budgets of departments whose staff
will be maintaining these improvements, as progress is made. This effort addresses the Comprehensive Plan goal of creating walkable, mixed-use areas.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funding to be used throughout the City for the reconstruction of alleys using pervious pavements. This will fund one alley per year as property
owners agree to an assessable project. This project addresses alleys not in the Bee Branch Watershed. Potential funding includes the Storm Water Utility. This
project helps with the reconstruction of alleys that are badly deteriorated and help reduce the stormwater runoff from these areas. The pavement system allows the
water to infiltrate the pavement and recharge the water table rather than be diverted to the storm sewer system and discharged to the river.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the replacement of defective sidewalks by private contractors. City Ordinances #41-102 through #41-105 provide that a property owner be
given a thirty day notice to replace a hazardous or defective sidewalk and, if they fail to do so, the City will have the repair made and the cost assessed to the
property owner. In Fiscal Year 1989, the City began an inspection and reconstruction program for City sidewalks. Reconstruction is required on these walks when
defective conditions are found. These funds enable the City to have the reconstruction done by contractors if the property owner does not make the corrections
after proper notice and reasonable time. These costs are then placed as liens against the properties and property tax receipts are collected in the next fiscal year
in the amount of the original expenditure.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for a multi-year program for the installation and reconstruction of public sidewalks adjacent to City-owned property and City-owned
infrastructures (i.e., catch basins, hydrants, signals, financial assistance). This appropriation also provides for tree and stump removal when trees need to be
removed as part of the reconstruction of the sidewalks. This project may also include the installation and reconstruction of curb ramps which is required by the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The reconstruction of public sidewalks is necessary for the safety of pedestrians and to keep the City's liability to a
minimum. ADA requires installation of curb ramps whenever a sidewalk is repaired at an intersection and a ramp is not currently constructed. With the recent Iowa
Supreme Court ruling, the City is liable for all sidewalk defects in the public right of way. When defects are brought to our attention, we have an obligation to
remove the liability. In 2024, over 250 areas behind trees were addressed due to known defects.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for replacement of curbs and catch basins related to the sidewalk inspection and replacement program. Replacement of sidewalks,
particularly those abutting the curb line or an intersection, frequently requires replacement of curbs and catch basins. It is anticipated in future years this program
will increase with the installation of curb ramps with detectable warnings required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Without funding for replacement of
the curbs and catch basins, the program is restricted or delayed until funding can be secured. With funding earmarked for curb and catch basin replacement, the
program can move forward on an established schedule. With an increase in curb and catch basin inspections at time of sidewalk inspections, additional curb and
catch basins are identified for replacement, especially if the street is to be overlaid in the near future. The anticipated cost for curb and catch basin repairs has
been increasing over the past few years and is anticipated to continue when the ramps needing walls, foundations, railings, and special designs are addressed.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to City-Owned Sidewalk Replacements (project #5521000010) and needs to be scheduled in the same fiscal years as that project. This
project may also impact the Water Department due to hydrant relocations- project #4281000018, Fire Hydrant Replacement.
OUTCOME
Connected Community: Equitable Transportation, Technology Infrastructure and Mobility: Have safe, available, equitable and accessible daily travel through
multiple mobility mode for all Dubuque residents.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is for Safe Routes to School-related safety improvements at various school locations throughout the City. The City in coordination with our Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO), which is the Dubuque Metropolitan Area Transportation Study (DMATS), and the Dubuque Community School District have
established a Safe Routes to School committee for the implementation of safety improvements at select elementary schools per the 2009 Dubuque Area Safe
Routes to School Plan. A multi-year phased approach is anticipated to complete all schools that are ready for recommended improvements. The Safe Routes to
School-related improvements can be pavement markings, flashing crosswalk signage, pedestrian countdown timers for signals and/or speed limit school zone
signage. The first phase of school areas to be considered are Carver and Hoover with pedestrian crossing improvements at Radford/Saratoga/Camelot
intersection, and the Carter/St. Anne intersection, respectively. In FY27, the second phase of school areas to be considered are Irving with mobility improvements
at Pennsylvania/Green intersection and crossing improvements at Pennsylvania/University intersection (East-West Corridor Study). Prescott would be evaluated
after the completion of the Central and White Corridor Traffic Study. Lincoln, Bryant, and Eisenhower will be evaluated for future improvements. Federal and state
grants may potentially be an alternate source of funding, and the City and DMATS will continue to consider these grant opportunities.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This annual funding provides for maintenance and repair of existing retaining walls that are owned by or are the responsibility of the City of Dubuque in various
locations throughout the City. This annual program will allow for maintenance, repair and reconstruction of city-owned retaining walls as needed. Based on the
recommendation of the City's Legal Department, there are a significant number of private-owner retaining walls which are adjacent to City right-of-way in which a
mutual benefit could be established through litigation. As a result, the annual funding for retaining wall maintenance, repair and reconstruction has been increased
to address this potential liable cost to the City. This annual program would provide for proactive maintenance, reconstruction and emergency repairs to city-owned
retaining walls.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The Villa Street retaining wall between Cleveland Avenue and Rush Street is showing signs of distress. Engineering staff have been monitoring the retaining wall
for several years and have observed movement in the wall. This retaining wall supports Villa Street and is a very tall wall. It is estimated to be roughly 7400 SF of
wall repair. Failure of the wall could impact city water and sanitary sewer utilities, limit access to homes and potentially impact private property. The current FY25
funding balance in the Villa Wall CIP is approx. $950,000 and additional funding is needed in FY26 to complete the project.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The annual Bridge Repair and Maintenance program allocates funding for the maintenance, inspection, and load rating of bridges & culverts throughout the City.
The periodic maintenance efforts are intended to maximize the serviceable life of these structures and mitigate any premature deterioration which would ultimately
result in costly replacements. Some of the most common repair efforts include concrete rehabilitation of bridge decks, substructure, barrier rails, and various
culvert components. Other activities include the painting of steel elements, sealing of concrete cracks on bridge decks and railings, and expansion joint
maintenance and repairs. The installation and reconstruction of erosion and scour countermeasure systems are also included in this program. This funding also
provides for the inspection, program management, and load rating efforts required to comply with the federally-mandated National Bridge Inspection Standards
(NBIS). The City's bridges are currently inspected on a biennial basis with one structure requiring an underwater inspection every 60 months. The City currently
has 27 structures under its jurisdiction, which includes 18 bridges and 9 culverts. The last inspection, dated October 2023, indicated the City has no structures
classified as functionally obsolete, or fracture critical, with one structure classified as structurally deficient. The structurally deficient structure will require
rehabilitation or replacement within the next five years and several other structures require routine maintenance and repair efforts. The annual Bridge Repair and
Maintenance program funding has been increased to account for the changing bridge load rating requirements and to allow for the increased preventative
maintenance and repair needs of bridges and culverts throughout the City.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is to provide a share of funding from the roadway and sidewalk enterprise funds in support of the City's efforts to meeting the City Council goal of
implementing an enterprise asset management system through use of a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS). Enterprise asset management
combines software, systems and services, and system support to maintain and optimize the functionality of operational assets across the lifecycle of an asset.
Municipal enterprise infrastructure assets refer to the physical and digital assets owned and managed by local governments for which they are accountable.
A CMMS is utilized to generate work orders and preventative maintenance schedules, track equipment usage and maintenance history, generate alerts for needed
action, track spare parts, maintain asset condition assessment data, and much more.The City currently utilizes several separate CMM software for different
functions or assets, and a broader scope or single vendor solution for a consistent CMMS tracking each utility's enterprise assets is desired.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The South Port of Dubuque is a City-owned land area that is available for redevelopment, yet it remains blighted and underutilized. In the recent past, the City has
developed a master plan for this area that includes several updates, yet no redevelopment has materialized. The ongoing United States Environmental Protection
Agency Multipurpose Grant will clean up two contaminated sites that are prime for redevelopment; however, the grant funds will not be enough to fully complete
the needed remediation. These CIP funds will be used to support the planning and design of additional contamination clean-up efforts in the South Port to
maximize the redevelopment potential of the area. City staff are planning to apply for a $2 million USEPA clean-up grant in FY25 that will primarialy happen in
FY26. This project directly supports the implementation of the Imagine Dubuque Plan. An additional benefit to cleaning-up the South Port will be improved
accessibility to the south port levee trail.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This annual recurring Harbor Area Dredging Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget provides for maintenance dredging at multiple riverfront locations to
maintain adequate harbor and channel depths for recreational and transient boat navigation. This funding allows for annual riverfront maintenance dredging as
required at Schmitt Island and AY McDonald Park public boat ramp launch locations; River's Edge Plaza and along the Riverwalk lower pier wall to accommodate
excursion boat mooring; Ice Harbor gates; and Port of Dubuque Marina.
The City also has a contractual obligation to maintain city-owned and leased property under current lease terms to perform maintenance dredging at Dubuque
Marina (Pleasure Boat Harbor) and at Dubuque Yacht Basin (Schmitt Harbor) to maintain adequate harbor depth for recreational and transient boat navigational
access. While not contractually obligated, there are areas outside the City’s Lease obligation to maintain that need dredging to create a safe open water way
channel for navigating vessels from the Peosta Channel and Mississippi River to and from the marina harbor locations. Assuming the marinas are willing to partner
and provide matching funds, and if in the public’s best interests, the City will consider aiding in performing maintenance dredging.
Due to abnormally low river levels over the past several years, staff anticipates needed to perform more frequent maintenance dredging along the Port of Dubuque
riverfront to accommodate excursion boat docking.
Through partnerships with both Dubuque Marina and American Marine, the City applied for US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and Iowa Department of Natural
Recourses (Iowa DNR) for a 2024 Boating Infrastructure Tier 1 Grant (BIG Tier 1) to assist with funding to perform maintenance dredging at Dubuque Marina. The
2024 BIG Tier 1 grant will assist with funding to perform maintenance dredging at Dubuque Marina. The 2025 BIG Tier 1 grant will assist with funding to perform
maintenance dredging at Dubuque Yacht Basin.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
Iowa Amphitheater on Schmitt Island will be an open-air performance amphitheater and planned as a versatile space to host varied audiences up to 8,000 people.
The stage will be constructed with an artful canopy that will help create a sense of place, enhance acoustics, and protect performers from sun and weather. The
amphitheater will be accessed by ADA-compliant paths and trails connecting from other places on the island. The City of Dubuque was awarded a Destination
Iowa Outdoor Recreation Fund grant administered by the Iowa Economic Development Authority in the amount of $3,000,000. The required local match is
$12,442,961 of which $8,784,961 will be G.O debt (greater downtown tax increment financing) with future payments to be made by the Dubuque Racing
Association (DRA). The remaining local match of $3,658,000 is provided as a private contribution from the DRA. Of the $3,658,000 private contribution, $1,550,000
is included in this project for the work that will be included in the city bid project, the remaining $2,108,000 will be spent by the DRA on projects within the vicinity to
enhance the overall amphitheater project. The items associated with the DRA local match funds include deconstructing the current dog track and kennels to
provide the location where the new amphitheater will be constructed (Bid Package No. 1). In addition, the DRA will be revamping its surface parking and striping to
accommodate the additional parking demand created by the new outdoor amphitheater and tourists visiting Schmitt Island. The Destination Iowa grant funding is
not paying for the Bid Package No. 1 (demolition and mass grading) work because it is included in the local match required for the overall Iowa Amphitheater
project. A portion of the parking lot work will be incorporated into Bid Package No. 2 (utilities, paving and amphitheater stage). The overall project addresses the
master plan, creative placemaking goals, and a top priority of the Dubuque City Council: increase foot traffic on Schmitt Island; build a recreational landmark and
create a gateway and the “front door” to Iowa and Dubuque; bring people to Schmitt Island; leverage island programming for economic development; connect the
island to Dubuque and the region; create a year-round destination; and create opportunities for education.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is for the replacement and changes needed for the City's current vehicular wayfinding signage. There are 6 City districts with 2 "others:" College-
Grandview (19), Downtown (37), Eagle Point (40), Port of Dubuque (7), Southend (6) and Westend (19), along with the Intermodal (5) wayfinding signage and the
DOT (37), which is along US 20 & US 151/61. The City is working with Schmitt Island on redistricting some signage to coordinate with the new development on
Schmitt Island.
The replacement of faded and/or outdated signage is needed. These construction costs will include the labor, equipment and materials with our Public Works
department along with the cost of the signs. The first priority would be faded and incorrect/outdated signage that has been determined for each district. With
previous modifications made to the 40 signs in the Eagle Point District, a simple name change can be around $20,000.
Since work is being done with Schmitt Island for wayfinding signage, the Eagle Point District is going to have less signs as some will be transferred to the Island
District.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for a replacement program of the existing 30-foot white streetlights and some traffic signals located in downtown Dubuque. Currently, there
are approximately 60 white streetlights remaining. The project would replace all remaining white poles and install lighting controllers with meters. In certain cases,
these would be replaced with historical streetlights. Many of the streetlights in the downtown area were installed in the early 1950's. These are the white 30-foot
style found along Central, Main, Iowa, Locust and Bluff Streets. Many of these streetlights utilize a direct burial style feed and unique service panel which makes it
very difficult and costly to maintain. The new downtown streetlights will be capable of having banners brackets added. This project would also fund LED
replacement luminaries throughout the City. Currently when street light fixtures burn out, they are replaced with matching style, high pressure sodium streetlights.
This program would promote the use of highly efficient, long life LED street lighting throughout the City of Dubuque which saves energy and operating expenses.
Current locations of interest include the Port of Dubuque Riverwalk, Bridge Lighting locations and miscellaneous subdivision locations. This project also initiates a
scheduled replacement of older streetlights throughout the City and will also include the installation of new streetlights when conditions warrant. Currently, the City
owns approximately 2,500 streetlights. In many older subdivisions, the entire light fixture, base, pole, and conduits need replacing. Currently there are around 60
lights in 24 locations outside of the downtown lights that are in need of replacement. Average cost of reconstruction is around $1,500 to $2,000 each.

signalization of additional intersections as the need may arise. This project also covers engineering staff time related to additional signals and is combined with
other programs such as theTraffic Signal Intersection Reconstruction and the Traffic Signal Interconnect to make a project viable. Each year appropriations are
intended to fund the signalization of intersections through the City as the need may arise. New signals will be given consideration utilizing the warrants established
in the Iowa Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. Currently, each new signal installation can cost approximately $300,000 and there are multiple locations
under consideration.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This program would provide for reconstruction of intersection mastarm retrofit for key intersections in the Central Business District. White and Central Avenue
contain a mix of different styles of traffic signalization. Some locations have pedestal mounted signal heads, while other locations have mastarm mounted heads.
The differing location of the traffic signals sometimes causes motorists to react to the 2nd signal ahead as opposed to their nearer intersection. This program would
provide for installing mastarm mounted signals along Loras, White, Jackson, Elm and Central Corridors. Intersections included in this project are: 4th & Locust, 7th
& Iowa, 9th & Bluff, 10th & Bluff,14th at Jackson, 14th and Elm, 16th & Elm. This would standardize the location of the signal heads along the major arterial routes.
This project has been extended out to cover increased costs. High priority locations are signals along Loras Boulevard including Jackson, and Elm.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for reconstruction of a portion of the underground wiring system for the traffic signal interconnect system. It will also tie in some
miscellaneous intersections that were not part of the original interconnect. Although the focus of this program is to connect traffic signals, the conduit will be
upsized to a multi-duct conduit system so that it can be utilized as part of the City's Fiber Optic Network that will enhance public safety, improve a wide range of
city services and enable equitable and universal access to broadband. During construction of this conduit, the City will collaborate with other public entities and
private carriers to leverage private sector investments in Dubuque to reduce right-of-way usage by utilizing a "dig once" policy to install a multipath fiber duct. This
will reduce costs and improve services for multiple city agencies and create public assets which can in turn be licensed to private partners to recover costs and
support future broadband expansion and innovation. Much of the underground galvanized steel conduit and wiring is in excess of 25 years old and is in need of
replacement. Currently, annual repairs are needed to maintain the traffic signal coordination system operating in the downtown area. Much of the system is
corroded to the extent that new wiring cannot be pulled through the old conduit, thereby requiring several spotted areas of conduit removal and replacement each
year. The majority of the new conduit would be bored under the streets and sidewalks to minimize the need for street patches. When this interconnect fails, traffic
lights go out of coordination and run free. Many times the power feed is also interrupted. This fiber conduit allows for the coordination of traffic signals and will also
be used to leverage private/public partnerships for broadband expansion. High priority signals to interconnect include: Asbury at Carter and at Chaney and St.
Ambrose; 14th at Elm and Jackson; Locust at Charter; and Bryant and Mt. Loretta.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project initiates a scheduled replacement of the older traffic signal controllers throughout the City. This project would provide for the replacement of
approximately 2-3 of the City's 115 traffic signal controllers per year. The new controllers are needed for signal coordination, traffic cameras, and compatibility with
the preemption program for the traffic signals being proposed by the Fire and Police Departments. All new intersections are currently compatible. The cost of a
single controller is approximately $14,000 plus $6,000 for a battery backup system and $6,000 for preemption. Recently, the cost of these cabinets has increased
due to advanced technical equipment within the cabinet. This replacement schedule would also keep up with the replacement needs for the older controllers,
purely from a maintenance perspective. High priority intersections in need of new controllers and cabinets include: Iowa at 5th, Iowa at 7th, 10th at Bluff, 5th and
Bluff, Loras at Jackson, Loras at Elm, 16th at Elm, Locust at Charter and Carter and Chaney on Asbury Road.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the Street Camera Installation (#5524000016).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This capital improvement request will be used to purchase and track replacement traffic control and street lighting equipment and would be used as a depository to
track insurance claims. The City of Dubuque replaces equipment that is damaged or destroyed due to accidents and weather-related activities. Many of the new
traffic cabinets along the major corridors may contain $60,000 to $75,000 of equipment. In some instances, this equipment is purchased to replace equipment that
was damaged due to an accident in which there is an insurance claim. Insurance reimbursements are put back into the project to fund expenditures which helps
track the costs due to accidents and how much the City spends on hit-and-run or uninsured accidents. Major storm events due to lightning alone can expend the
budget.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project funds the equipment, installation and software license for the placement of fixed cameras at $2,500 each, to be installed near roadways, alleys and
signalized intersections throughout the City of Dubuque. Currently, the Traffic Operations Center has communication lines throughout the City along major and
minor arterials, city streets and near signalized intersections. Engineering uses these cameras to remotely monitor and adjust traffic operations. Over the last few
years, Engineering and Police have worked together using these cameras to aid the police in accident and crime investigations on a daily basis making them an
integral part of public safety. These funds would also be available to add fiber optics communications lines to areas in need of cameras and to replace existing
cameras as they age and as technology advances.
With IMON's public-private partnership with the fiber-to-the-home projects, the communications infrastructure has increased location opportunities for camera
locations. We have collaborated with other departments on proposed camera locations and have gotten those locations placed with those public-private
partnerships. Clarke Drive and Grandview Avenue are high priority..

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
In 2001-2002, the city traffic signals were converted from 150-watt incandescent bulbs to 10 watt LED lamps. This conversion also included a large rebate
incentive from the local power company along with drastically reduced electrical consumption. These new LED fixtures have a lifespan of 5 - 7 years. This
appropriation will provide for the re-lamping of approximately 1/10th of the City-owned traffic signal lamps in each year. Currently the City has 115 traffic signals
that with an average of about 40 lamps per intersection. Each lamp runs approximately $70 each. New LED signal heads can be purchased with a 15-year
warranty. This project will reduce maintenance problems (burnouts/failures) with traffic signals in future years. These existing LED's have lasted approximately
twice their warrantied lifespan, and instead of burning out, they dim over time and become non-compliant with MUTCD guidelines. This capital improvement
program will systematically replace these lamps by corridor starting with the oldest LED's.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides needed traffic control at signalized intersections during times of power outages. This project will provide for the purchase and installation of
battery backup systems by City traffic signal technicians in existing traffic signal controllers at various locations throughout the City. These battery backups will
provide backup power to run each intersection on in full colors for up to eight hours during power outages. When power is restored, the controllers will
automatically reset and go back into service. These battery backup units also serve as lighting controllers and can be placed midblock in the Central Business
District to serve two intersections with one battery backup system. Each battery backup system costs between $8,500 to $11,000. This project will fund the
addition of 2 to 3 BBS per year. In the City of Dubuque, there are 115 traffic controllers located at various intersections and crosswalks throughout the city. During
times of power outages, crews are dispatched to the signalized intersections to place portable stop signs. Depending on when these power outages occur, the
response time for crews to load stop signs and place them averages thirty minutes to one hour. The response time is even longer when outages occur at night and/
or on a weekend. During this time, police officers are dispatched to direct traffic until stop signs can be placed. When major outages occur, many intersections at
one time can be affected, which endangers public safety and severely interrupts both police and maintenance operations. This project allows the City of Dubuque
to provide normal traffic control at intersections during power outages, with the least interruption to the driving public, police and maintenance operations.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project would add additional surge protection to the 115 traffic signals and miscellaneous camera systems currently operated by the City of Dubuque. Newer
ITS signalized intersections are becoming more complex with advanced communications networks, battery backup systems, preemption equipment, cameras and
high-end detection equipment -- a recipe which makes these units more susceptible to lightning, surge and grounding issues. This project would fund the
retrofitting of these signals and cameras systems with surge protection ranging from $500 to $2000 at each intersection (depending on the degree of equipment at
each location). During the summer of 2011, twenty intersections were struck by lightning during two storm events that caused an estimated $100,000 in damages.
All newly installed intersections and camera locations will be designed with this additional surge protection to prevent a similar occurrence. This program has
proven successful with a lower rate of damaged equipment after installation of this surge equipment. This surge equipment does require frequent analysis to
ensure it continues to protect as it ages and often times will need replacement after multiple storm events. Typically these existing units get replaced as they fail or
as they age out with the equipment they are protecting.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This will be an annual project that provides for the necessary fiber optics communications cabling and equipment to be installed along key corridors. This will allow
for the interconnection network of traffic signals via fiber optics back to the Traffic Operations Center at City Hall and the Traffic Shop located at the Municipal
Service Center. Fiber to the signals allow for remote management of the signal and allows for the addition of cameras at the signal to feed back to the Traffic
Operations Center and Dispatch. It also allows improved security via network monitoring and improves coordination of traffic signals (thus lowering carbon
emissions) and will also be used to leverage private/public partnerships for broadband expansion. Although this fiber is installed for traffic operations, it is oversized
to accommodate all city department needs in the future. All new traffic signal installations since 2007 have been installed to be fiber ready. Now there are
communications standards in place, and the City will be installing fiber optics and communication equipment throughout the City starting with the major traffic
corridors including US 20, NW Arterial, Central Ave, White Street, Loras Blvd, Locust Connector, and US 61/151. One of the primary goals of this project is to
complete fiber optic communications loops around the City utilizing US 20, NW Arterial, Pennsylvania, Asbury Road and US 52 down to Central to Locust and back
onto US 20. Fiber optics communications will also replace the existing Central Business District traffic 7 wire interconnect. This change-out to fiber will occur over
the upcoming years. There are many older signals throughout the City that need to be updated prior to going on this new system. These signals will be added to
the system as they are updated. Many of these will be in partnership with ImOn Communications as they extend fiber throughout the community over the next 3
years.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides funds for the maintenance and expansion of the Traffic Management Center's ITS Improvements, including remote management and
monitoring of the City's traffic signals along with automated vehicle counters, cameras, classifiers, connected vehicles infrastructure, and roadside units
broadcasting Spat data and variable message boards along key city corridors. In addition, funds will be used for ITS equipment located within the Traffic
Management Center located at City Hall. This fund would also be used as match money in joint projects which are suggested by the Iowa Department of
Transportation. Using state-of-the-art electronics, ITS technologies improve the efficiency of traffic control equipment, congestion, air improvement, travel
improvements, citizen concerns, and green communities. Examples of these technologies include traffic counters, traffic monitoring equipment for speeds and
occupancy, and variable message boards to inform the traveling public. The I-80 detour through Dubuque in the summer of 2008 used some of the City's existing
ITS technologies to aid the flow of traffic through Dubuque. Future funds will support the installation of DSRC radios and updated equipment for connected vehicle
equipment. FY 20 funds were used to install roadside units along the signalized intersections of US 20. These devices broadcast signal phasing and timing data
to newer cars that have this technology built in. Dubuque is the first city in the state to install this technology.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for the conversion of two signalized intersections per year to a new vehicle detection system and stop bar video cameras. Traffic signals
require vehicle detection to minimize delay. Some older installations did not have vehicle detection or have faulty loop detectors (loops cut into the roadway that
measure inductance to detect if a car is waiting or not). Microwave detection is an easy, safe alternative that the City has been using at new installations. Future
locations targeted intersections along Asbury Road including Sam's South entrance, JFK, Carter, Chaney and St. Ambrose. Locations that currently are in need of
maintenance and potential candidates include Locust at 151, Locust at Locust Connector, Hwy 151 at Jones, Locust at Charter, and Elm at 16th. The newest
model of equipment allows this technology to be installed at more existing locations. This technology and equipment upgrade offers some of the best performance
enhancements to a signal for the dollar spent.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This capital improvement project would fund the replacement of 60 concrete streetlights along Grandview Avenue with historic LED fixtures. The project
boundaries include Grandview at Delhi to the North to Grandview at 151 to the South. The existing streetlights along Grandview Avenue are constructed from
concrete poles which require yearly maintenance and replacement due to rebar rusting from within. The Engineering Department buys replacement poles, but the
newer poles seem to be breaking down quicker than the older poles. This capital improvement request would fund the replacement of these 60 poles with a lower
maintenance nostalgic-style light pole. New conduit and lighting cabinets were completed for this project in previous years. $250,000 is needed to complete the
pole installation of this project. Pole delivery lead time is 4-6 months with 2-3 week installation time.
The Grandview Avenue corridor is a great opportunity to connect fiber optic lines between major roadways. Included in this project is 12,000 feet of fiber optic
cable and 20 security cameras at key locations along Grandview, which will be completed with previous fiscal year funding. This fiber line will tie US 61/151 into US
20 fiber optics and provide future feeds to neighborhoods along the way. This fiber will create a redundant route between US 20 and Hwy 151 and be used for
private/public partnerships with broadband carriers during FY 23. All the underground improvements have been installed north of US 20. FY 21 funds used to
install the new light pole equipment on the section North of US 20. FY 22-24 funding along with a private/public construction project with ImOn during their fiber to
the home construction allowed all of the underground infrastructure to be installed between US 151 and US 20 during the summer of 2023. FY 25 funds will be
used to install new light poles between US 151 and US 20.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
In 2005 the City entered into a franchise agreement with Mediacom. Part of that agreement was to install “dark fiber” to 77 city, county, non-profit, schools and
medical sites. Although that agreement was converted to a State of Iowa franchise in 2008, I-Net fiber optic cabling is supported through 2020 by Mediacom, and
the contract will be extended by Mediacom for two years. At the expiration of the extension, the City has the option to purchase the I-Net contract. The fiber is 15+
years old, is mostly aerial and is co-located with Mediacom residential/business fiber in termination cabinets. This makes it a less than reliable and difficult to
maintain asset. Since 2016, the City of Dubuque undertook its Broadband Acceleration Initiative. The Initiative focuses on public/private collaborations and
includes a comprehensive strategy to reduce the cost and time required for broadband expansions in Dubuque. Although many of the sites served originally by I-
Net fiber have now been converted to city fiber, some still remain that will need connectivity for data, phones and other devices. It is recommended to leverage
existing telecommunications public/private partnerships in addition to building out the City’s own fiber to ensure connectivity. The locations impacted for voice/data/
device connectivity are: Leisure Services/Bunker Hill, EOC (public/private partnership with CS Tech), Fire Station 6 Rhomberg (+Solar Collector) (public/private
partnership with ImOn), Fire Station 2 JFK (+Solar Collector), Fire Station 5 Grandview (+Solar Collector), WRRC. In addition, connectivity at the following sites
will need connectivity to serve water meter collectors: Key West St. Joe School, Wartburg, Wahlert, Table Mound. There are still a number of the 77 sites that need
fiber connectivity installed to them with this capital improvement program.

189PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
Emergency Preemption equipment was originally started in 2000, but this project request is for the installation of GPS-based equipment at new locations and the
replacement of equipment at older intersections. This system can be used by fire, ambulance and police units responding to emergencies to provide for quicker
response times by removing stopped traffic due to red signals at busy intersections. It will also improve safety for the community and emergency personnel. The
optical system provides the capability of placing this on other vehicles, such as snow plows, allowing them to hold green lights to expedite the task of snow
removal, but does not allow the snowplow driver to change the light from red to green. It also has the capability of supervision so that there is a record of units
using the preemption system. The priority can be set into this system which would allow emergency vehicles to have priority over non-emergency vehicles using
the system. The City of Dubuque is currently using Optical Preemption while new GPS technologies are now more popular and minimize roadway delays by only
preempting the direction (straight or left) as needed. Current optical preemption disrupts the opposing lane because it always brings up both the left and the
through for the direction of travel. New equipment is tied to the direction on the vehicle and will not disrupt the left turn if not needed. New replacement equipment
for the older optical equipment can operate both optical or GPS-based communications.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This capital improvement project provides an annual program for installing conduit for fiber optic in miscellaneous projects throughout the community. Installation of
fiber conduit into existing infrastructure typically ranges from $25 to $35 a linear foot when installed in a stand alone project. When combined with other projects,
the cost can drop to around $10 to $20 a linear foot. This improvement item funds the installation of fiber conduit along other unscheduled city projects and in
conjunction with other private utility projects where it is convenient and at a cost savings to the community.
This conduit will be upsized to a multi-duct conduit system so that it can be utilized as part of the City's Fiber Optic Network project that will enhance public safety,
improve a wide range of city services and enable equitable and universal access to broadband. During construction of this conduit, the City will collaborate with
other public entities and private carriers to leverage private sector investments in Dubuque to reduce right-of-way usage by utilizing a "dig once" policy to install a
multipath fiber duct that reduces costs and improves services for multiple city agencies and creates public assets which can in turn be licensed to private partners
to recover costs and support future broadband expansion and innovation. This budgeted item would extend fiber optic conduit as part of the city-wide effort to
create a network of city-owned fiber optic systems and will also aid linking adjacent projects together and can be shared with public/private partnerships. This fiber,
once installed, is used by many city entities including the Information Services, Fire, and Police Departments.

This program would fund the purchase and implementation of a fiber infrastructure management program. Currently fiber infrastructure is documented on
spreadsheets and drawings located in various locations throughout the City. This program will consolidate all this information into one software program with the
ability to include network information that documents failover redundancy paths and Virtual Local Area Networks within the City. This program would also be used
to document and assist in the exchange of assets to grow broadband in the Dubuque area via public/private partnerships to help cover underserved
neighborhoods. Documentation of this information is crucial for the maintenance and operation of a fiber communications network that will be used to serve all
departments along with public/private partnerships. Fiber communications is becoming a critical driver of economic growth in the City of Dubuque. This request
would also help cover employees' time with fiber data collection.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This program will fund the expansion of communication duct and fiber that will significantly enhance public safety, improve a wide-range of city services and enable
equitable and universal access to broadband (high-speed internet). The City will collaborate with other public entities and private carriers and specifically target its
funds to "last block" undertakings, ranging from connecting widely-dispersed city facilities and assets to specifically connecting low income or geographically
stranded neighborhoods that the private sector cannot/will not connect.
This program will leverage significantly larger private sector investments in Dubuque (usually 5X to 7X city investment), provides City infrastructure that reduces
costs/improves services for multiple City agencies and create public assets which can in turn be leased or licensed to private partners to recover costs and support
future broadband expansion and innovation. Incorporated into this project are several traditional, stand-alone CIP's such as extending the City's fiber backbone
from 27th and Elm up to Jackson and 32nd and over to Central and 32nd. This brings broadband and surveillance infrastructure to this area of the City. These
types of projects have been folded into this request in order to be positioned to reduce costs through public/private partnerships.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
In 2008, significant updates to the Historic Federal Building were completed to improve its overall condition and to ensure it remained as a historic structure
anchoring downtown. Now, 14 years later, this historic building requires additional funding to ensure it remains in solid condition. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic,
funding over the past two fiscal years has been reduced from this capital improvement project budget. The listed funding request attempts to replenish building
components currently in deferred maintenance status and address emerging concerns. In FY26 funding is budgeted for major HVAC upgrades to replace existing
equipment that is beyond its expected service life and subject to frequent or catastrophic breakdown. FY29 provides funding for the second phase of HVAC
upgrades.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This funding request is for consulting services related to ADA Compliance Phase II and further implementation of the City's ADA compliance application, called
InVision Facilities Management. In Phase I, we were able to have the floor plans of 2 city buildings added to InVision Facilities Management, as well as buildings
and pavilions located in parks. In the second phase, we will add additional building footprints and work with a consultant to fully implement the application and
possibly tie it into GIS software, ArcGIS Indoors. The funding for this phase is spread out over three years. With a full-time facilities manager now employed, it is
expected this project will progress significantly with funding and professional resources.
This project is listed in City Council's Goals & Priorities Management Agenda, under ADA Compliance Funding Phase II and InVision Facility Management

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project funds the installation of 4-5 weatherproof bike lockers per year at the downtown building facilities assigned to the Facilities Management Team. In the
past two years, more city employees are biking to work and are parking their bikes inside the building of their assigned work space. This is causing several
problems for the Facilities Team. On bad weather days, bikes are bringing additional rain and snow into the buildings that can increase risk of slip-and-fall
incidents. Bikes stored haphazardly in hallways can also interfere with emergency egress walkways. Some bikers can own bikes costing as much as $10,000 and
thus are reluctant to store them in the open air at exterior bike racks. Weatherized bike lockers will provide riders with the needed protection and security to allow
bikes not to be stored indoors.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This program provides grants and loans for rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of buildings (up to 75 units). in the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District. Tax
increment proceeds are used to capitalize the pool of funds for these grants. The program provides grants of $10,000 for each new housing unit created in the
District. The program creates affordable, quality rental housing units for our workforce in areas well-served by public transit. All projects must commit to accepting
all sources of income for otherwise eligible tenants. Providing housing incentives is a high priority of the City Council.
This project assists in removing barriers by creating new housing inventory in low-income census tracts near public transportation.
Potential projects identified at this time are: 1602 Central Avenue (3 units); 1390 Iowa Street (2 units); 1248 Iowa Street (14 units); 408 W. 5th (9 units); 2400
Central Avenue (1-2 units).
In addition, we typically receive requests for 5-6 smaller projects (10-20 units) annually.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is related to the Downtown Rehab Grant Program (project #6052000002). These grants are typically used on the same properties simultaneously.
OUTCOME
Livable Neighborhoods and Housing: Have a vibrant Dubuque Downtown with an increase in housing opportunities both market-rate and affordable

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The Small Business Grant program began in 2019 with this project being a new phase of the existing program using a different funding source. This project is
related to the Low-Moderate Income (LMI) Small Business Grants Program (project # 61002000051). The LMI Small Business Grants Program provides $5,000
grants to eligible business owners for eligible costs to support and expand their business. That program utilizes Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
funds. Due to CDBG restrictions, another funding source must be identified to pay for supporting work for the program such as administration costs and other
ancillary expenses (i.e. event costs). The City currently has a contract with Fountain of Youth to administer the program. This project provides the funding to
Fountain of Youth for its administration of the grant, which reduces barriers for low- to moderate-income individuals who are in the early stages of operating a small
business.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The Greater Dubuque Development Corporation (GDDC) has embarked on the Greater Dubuque 2027 Campaign, which will conclude in 2027. FY25 is the 2nd
year of the campaign. The main focus during the five-year campaign is the retention, recruitment and creation of workforce in the Greater Dubuque area. The
creation of workforce includes connecting to the unemployed and underemployed population, disproportionately minority, and connecting those citizens with
educational opportunities through Opportunity Dubuque in partnership with Northeast Iowa Community College. Upon completion of the participants' certificate of
training, GDDC will work with community employers and provide livable wage employment. The five-year goals for the initiative include: population growth to
105,000 from 99,266; employment growth to 64,000 from 58,733; median household income increased to $76,000 from $63,031; residential and commercial
construction of $1 billion; reduce the number of households below the Dubuque County Supplemental Poverty Measurement by 5 percent.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The current Housing Creation Grant of $10,000/unit supports the creation of downtown rental, residential inventory. Eligibility for that program is determined by
whether the building is creating housing where none has existed before (such as the adaptive reuse of a warehouse) or where units have been vacant for at least 3
years. As the City Council has prioritized the revitalization of the Central Avenue corridor, and the Comprehensive Plan calls for encouraging multi-family
development near jobs/walkable, mixed-use areas, this program aims to accelerate the creation of affordable downtown housing options by creating a more
flexible program for projects that propose the rehabilitation of more than one building and a minimum of 4 units. The program is currently proposed for use along
the Central Avenue corridor between 11th Street and 22nd Street. For this program, a unit could be considered eligible, even if recently occupied, if the project
involves a substantial rehabilitation of the unit and buildings. The program provides a loan, forgivable at the 10-year mark, if the developer has maintained the
terms of the agreement. Projects cannot discriminate based on the tenant's source of income.
This project assists in removing barriers for low-income and disabled residents by supporting the creation of housing in the Central Avenue Corridor, which is
walkable and has access to public transportation. Approximately 16% of households in this census tract are without a vehicle.
Potential projects identified at this time are: 1701 Central Avenue (4 units); 1739-1763 Central Avenue (7 units); 1527 Central Avenue (10 units).
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This is similar to the Greater Downtown Housing Creation Grant Program (Project # 6052000004). It can be combined with the Downtown Rehabilitation Grant
Program which includes Central Avenue, Historic Millwork District, and Washington Neighborhood (Project # 6052000002).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project will be a matching 1:1 grant to reimburse property owners for acquisition and installation of lighting fixtures (minimum of 250 watts) in the alleys
between Central Avenue and White Street from 1400 Block to 2400 Block. Individual grant awards will be limited to $500 per property owner. Lighting will be
required to be installed in the alleyways at the rear of the property and verified by City staff. Studies have shown a strong correlation between increased alley
lighting in urban areas and a reduction in crime rates. From a public perception standpoint, increased lighting will improve the look and feel of the Central Corridor
and allow residents and visitors to the area to feel safer.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This CIP requests funds to replace City busses. Vehicle reliability is essential in securing choice riders, and the City's bus fleet is notably aged. Bus replacements
are based on vehicle assessment scores, as well as year of eligibility for state and federal funding. Eligibility does not guarantee funding, only that vehicles are
beyond an age or mileage where funding could be requested. As grant funding is unlikely because of the age of the City’s fleet when compared to other Iowa cities,
it is important to budget for the cost of replacement. This CIP requests funds in FY26 for the purchase of one new light duty ADA accessible low floor mini buses,
as well as one heavy duty ADA accessible low floor fixed-route bus. Funds are requested in subsequent years for additional bus replacements as the fleet
surpasses the FTA useful life guidelines. Maintenance costs have increased as old buses are requiring major component replacements. It is important for the City
to have a funding plan for vehicle replacement that does not assume large grants will be received. Minibuses transport individuals with disabilities who are unable
to utilize the fixed-route service for ADA compliance, The Jule fixed-route service must provide equally reliable service. Replacing these vehicles at the end of their
useful life is essential to avoid delays in service. As the Jule continues to improve and provide additional services, the quality and efficiency of its vehicles will
continue to be a priority. Vehicles beyond their useful life increase maintenance costs and the likelihood of breakdowns causing interruption of service. As vehicles
age, their fuel efficiency is also reduced. As new vehicle technologies develop, newer buses offer increased fuel efficiency or utilize alternative fuels.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project requests funds for Wayfinding signage. FY 26 funds will be used to replace Wayfinding Signs throughout the City of Dubuque. Wayfinding signs
provide directions to City buildings, facilities, and locations. Wayfinding signs are important to assist the public and visitors in navigating the city. The exisitng
signage is older and needs to be replaced, as sign retroreflectivity (reflectiveness in light) decreases with age. As City facilities and amenities expand, new
wayfinding is needed. The project is based on recommendations that were outlined in the "Smart Parking Mobility Management Plan" that was adopted by the city
in 2024.

ROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project covers major repairs and maintenance issues for the Port of Dubuque Parking Ramp. The Diamond Jo contributes an annual amount as determined
by their development agreement with the City and adjusted annually by Consumer Price Index. Prioritized projects will be identified in the CIP budget, and major
ramp maintenance projects will be budgeted on an as-needed basis. Although there is no impact on the operating budget, operating revenue is manufactured by
an ongoing maintenance program. Maintenance and repairs extend the life of the ramps and reduce costs by repairing degraded areas prior to damage becoming
serious. Major repair maintenance programs are funded on an annual basis. All expenses related to the ramp are reimbursed to the City by the Diamond Jo. The
capital improvement project balance accumulates to fund future parking maintenance projects.
Available funding in FY24 was used to conduct a major concrete slab crack-sealing investigation and the associated repairs. Due to the ramp being permanently
classified as an open structure, an investigation of the sprinkler system will be conducted to see if some sections can be taken off line in order to save on long-term
system maintenance and replacement costs. Additionally, repairs will be made to the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is not related to other capital projects.
OUTCOME
Livable Neighborhoods and Housing Great Place to Live: Have well-designed and well-maintained public infrastructure and facilities serving neighborhoods.
FUNDING RESTRICTIONS
This project is restricted to Private Participant funding.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The Comprehensive Housing Activities for Neighborhood Growth and Enrichment or CHANGE Initiative is a holistic approach to sustainability that addresses
ecological, environmental integrity, economic prosperity, and social/cultural vibrancy. CHANGE is a campaign of neighborhood revitalization and an extension of
sustainability to specifically address marginal properties, affordable housing, and homeownership. Under the umbrella of CHANGE, this initiative provides funding
towards the City's strategy of revitalization for the downtown neighborhoods and centers on increasing homeownership. The City administers a number of
programs of federal and state-provided financial assistance for low-moderate income households (earning less than 80% of area median income) to achieve this.
This Program also provides for acquisition activities where the City may purchase abandoned, derelict buildings and houses; or it may purchase housing subject to
mortgage foreclosure actions in order to secure City funds previously loaned as part of rehabilitation activities or other housing to accomplish the goals. Certain
improvements will be made to the properties in order to make them marketable for resale. In this manner, neighborhood conditions are improved, dwellings are
resold to responsible owners and City dollars are returned to the revolving fund. The program offers approximately $30,000 to subsidize rehabilitation. .

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION (Continued)
This program is offered to households below 80% of median income as an incentive to purchase and improve properties citywide. Consideration will be given to
increasing the amounts for purchase of rental properties converted to owner-occupied. Beginning in 2008, selective purchases have been made. Certain properties
are targeted to be voluntarily acquired, for reason of poor maintenance and the inability or refusal of the owner to make improvements. These are then resold to
qualifying owner-occupied households committed to the restoration of the home. This program helps support the Four Mounds HEART program partnership. This
is a ten-year TIF which requires 38.1% of the income generated to be used for Low and Moderate Income residents anywhere in the City of Dubuque. The
percentage to Low and Moderate Income residents can be higher than the required 38.1%. This Housing TIF revenue can be used for City initiatives other than
Homeownership Grants in Targeted Neighborhoods & Purchase/Rehab/Resale and can be used outside the Greater Downtown TIF Urban Renewal area.

OUTCOME
Livable Neighborhoods and Housing: Have the availability and connectivity of affordable housing throughout the city, not in concentrated areas of poverty and low-
income housing

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
The Comprehensive Housing Activities for Neighborhood Growth and Enrichment, or CHANGE, is an initiative with a holistic approach to sustainability that
addresses ecological, environmental integrity, economic prosperity, and social/cultural vibrancy. CHANGE is a campaign of neighborhood revitalization and an
extension of sustainability to specifically address marginal properties, affordable housing, and homeownership. Under CHANGE, the Washington Neighborhood
Homebuyer Program supports and encourages homeownership in the Washington Neighborhood. The program operates under the oversight of the Housing Trust
Fund Committee and is capitalized by annual grants received from the Iowa Finance Authority (IFA). IFA requires a match for the program and the City provides
IFA Trust Match from the Greater Downtown TIF (GDTIF). The primary purpose is to complement homebuyer programs provided through the CDBG program by
providing loans to low-to-mod income homeowners and buyers in the Washington Neighborhood. Homebuyer loans are offered on a sliding scale. Households
earning less than 30% of median income (MI) are eligible for $25,000; less than 50% MI are eligible for $20,000; less than 80% MI are eligible for $15,000. All
loans are 0% interest and have a monthly payment of $60 per month until paid in full or it is no longer their principal place of residence. Homeowners are eligible
for up to $25,000 for the rehabilitation of their property. The new boundaries are 11th Street to 32nd Street; Elm Street to Central Avenue.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project is for the Lead and Healthy Homes Production Grant that was awarded to Dubuque in 2025 and will continue for 48 months. This grant will assist
90-100 residential units with remediating any lead based paint hazards present in the unit. This grant targets units that house children under the age of 6, as well
as units that have a child under the age of 6 frequently visiting. This grant helps prevent childhood lead poisoning which has irreversible effects on a child. The City
of Dubuque experiences 5-10 cases of lead poisoned children each year, with blood lead levels over 15 ugl. Their is no acceptable level of lead in the blood, but
the EPA considers any level over 3.5ugl as elevated and requires action. Structures built before 1978 often contain lead based paint, and the City housing stock
consists of mostly structures built prior to this, requiring continued efforts to remediate the hazards.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This grant is used in conjunction with the Healthy Homes Production Grant and the Homeowner Rehab program to make the biggest impact for residents.
OUTCOME
Reduced lead paint hazards in Dubuque Homes, resulting in less lead poisoned children.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This Program takes a comprehensive approach to addressing multiple diseases and injuries for those who are low-to-moderate income and at high risk in the
home by focusing on housing-related hazards in a coordinated fashion using the Eight Healthy Homes Principles: 1. Keep it dry; 2. Keep it clean; 3. Keep it Safe;
4. Keep it well-ventilated; 5. Keep it pest-free; 6. Keep it contaminant-free; 7. Keep your home maintained; 8. Thermally-controlled. The high-risk population
contains, but is not limited to: children, older adults and families with persons with disabilities. Creating healthier housing promotes the healthy growth and
development of children and has the potential to save billions in health care costs. All units served must be the residence of families with income at or below 80%
of the area median income. All addresses within the City of Dubuque are eligible. This program seeks to complete construction on 126 units and ends September

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for a phased program of historic and architectural surveys of Dubuque's older neighborhoods to identify cultural resources for planning and
program implementation as well as neighborhood revitalization and sustainability. This project also supports registrations through nomination and listing of local
historic districts, sites, and properties to the National Register of Historic Places, which facilitates access to historic tax credits and other preservation funding
sources. This project can also assist with historic structure reports or surveys to facilitate rehabilitation and adaptive reuse. City funds would be used to leverage
state grants where feasible; state grants are highly competitive and can extend project timeline. This project helps to maintain status as a Certified Local
Government (CLG) with the State of Iowa. The CLG program requires that historic and architectural surveys and registrations be conducted on a periodic basis.
Between 2000 and 2016, nearly 5,800 structures in Dubuque's historic districts, conservation districts, and conservation planning areas were surveyed. These
surveys and registrations assist Planning Services staff with conducting mandated Section 106 reviews of potential impacts to cultural resources for federally-
funded housing rehabilitation and other City projects. CLG status allows the City to conduct these reviews in-house, which streamlines project review. These
surveys and registrations also assist with federal and state tax credit applications and disaster assistance. This project implements the Historic Preservation
Commission's annual work plan, a key component of the City's Historic Preservation Program.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project will provide funding for the City to hire a consultant to update the community's greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory and community climate action plan (as
needed). The community inventory was first completed in 2011, and best practices indicate it should be updated every three years. The updated inventory will track
progress towards the 50% by 2030 Community Climate Action & Resiliency Plan approved by City Council in 2013. The contract would request a consultant to
work closely with City departments to collect data regarding building energy use, fleet operations, and other GHG-emitting municipal sources. The contract would
also request a consultant to work with the City and other community partners to update the community's GHG inventory and ensure complete final documentation
to comply with the City's national commitments, including the Compact of Mayors. In 2015, then Mayor Buol signed on to the Compact of Mayors, which commits
Dubuque to developing a GHG mitigation and climate adaptation plan within three years. Part of this requirement is reporting municipal and community data via an
internationally-recognized reporting protocol such as the Carbon Disclosure Project. Lastly, the hired consultant would work with a community-based steering
committee to update the community climate action plan, which should be updated on a regular basis. The City's last GHG inventory was completed in 2022. This
funding may also be used for a municiple-only inventory, communitywide inventory as well as exploration of a goal that is science-based and goes beyond the
initial 2030 timeframe.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project provides for replacement of computers and printers for all City departments except those funded through Community Development Block Grant or
Housing grant funds. This reflects a four-year replacement schedule for computers, a five-year replacement schedule for printers and a two-year replacement
schedule for computer tablets. Software capabilities continue to outpace hardware and also provide continued opportunity for productivity enhancement. In the
past we tried to maintain a five-year replacement schedule; however, this has been ineffective and is at least a year too long based on the pace of hardware and
software industries.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/JUSTIFICATION
This project will replace network switches and related battery backup equipment on an 8 year cycle. Network switches are crucial components of computer
networks, responsible for routing and managing data traffic between connected devices. The lifespan of a network switch is typically determined by reaching end of
life (EOL), environmental factors or maxing out capacity in terms of connections or bandwidth. Proper power management, including the use of surge protectors
and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), can also help prevent damage from power surges and outages, which can shorten the lifespan of network switches.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project is not related to other capital improvement projects.
OUTCOME
Financially Responsible, High Performance City Organization: Secure City information and data using the “Best Practices” of the Dubuque community, including
regular replacement of end of life equipment.
