Improvement Package Summary
1 of 8
This improvement package request seeks approval to implement the results of a recent personnel
reclassification study in the Engineering Department. The results of the study call for the following
changes:
•Eliminate two existing part-time Inflow and Infiltration Inspector positions (0.73 FTE each, G08) and
replace with a full-time Inflow & Infiltration Inspector position (1.00 FTE, G08). The existing part-time
positions represent a combined 1.46 FTEs and have a total cost of $92,199. The new full-time position
would be 1.00 FTE and has a cost of $89,504. This results in a net reduction of 0.46 FTEs and a cost
savings of $2,695).
•Create a new part-time Sidewalk Inspector position (0.73 FTE, G08). This results in an increase of
0.73 FTEs and cost increase of $52,575).
In total, the recommended changes would have a net increase of 0.27 FTEs and a net cost increase of
$49,880. These changes would streamline Engineering Department operations, allowing the department
to operate more efficiently. This requests supports the City Council Goal Financially Responsible, High-
Performance City Organization: Sustainable, Equitable and Effective Service Delivery.

This improvement package request is to increase the available operating stormwater repair funds due to
increased construction costs, increase backlog of deferred maintenance, additional identification of high-
risk stormwater management infrastructure requiring immediate repairs, and the observed increase in
more intense wet weather events that have further deteriorated existing stormwater infrastructure.
Stormwater infrastructure repairs have been prioritized and planned, but this fund is primarily utilized for
emergency repairs that require immediate attention and cannot be delayed due to unsafe conditions that
threaten public and environmental welfare. FY25 budget was $50,000, and as of December 2024, this
fund has been overspent by approximately $50,000 with no remaining funds for the rest of the fiscal year.
This request relates to the City Council goal of Financially Responsible, High-Performance City
Organization: Sustainable, Equitable and Effective Service Delivery.

This improvement package request is to add an additional $128,000 to the available operating sanitary
sewer repair funds due to increased construction costs, increase backlog of deferred maintenance, and
additional identification of high-risk sewer main requiring immediate repairs through the Asset
Management Program. Sewer repairs have been prioritized and planned, but this fund is primarily utilized
for emergency repairs that require immediate attention and cannot be delayed due to unsafe conditions
that threaten public and environmental welfare. FY25 budget was $122,000, and as of December 2024,
only approximately $20,000 remains for the rest of the fiscal year. This request relates to the City Council
goal of Financially Responsible, High-Performance City Organization: Sustainable, Equitable and Effective

This improvement package request is to upgrade the scheduled FY26 replacement of a current
Engineering staff computer from a desktop to a laptop. The anticipated increase in the operating budget is
approximately $1,200 every 4 years. The City does not allow the use of personal computers and personal
mobile phones to remotely access resources directly on the City’s network. In addition, Section 9.12 notes
that approved telecommuters will be provided the tools and applications for access to city technology
84 Page 935 of 1178
resources. There are several times throughout the year when the laptop would be needed in a remote
access situation (such as Covid, sick, conference attendance, board/commission presentations, etc.). The
laptop will be only used by the assigned Engineering staff member who will work remotely for the
previously-indicated reasons. This improvement request helps meet the City Council's goal of being a
Financially Responsible, High-Performance City Organization: Sustainable, Equitable, and Effective
Service Delivery.

This improvement package request is to delay the scheduled FY 2025 replacement of a current
Engineering staff desktop computer and upgrade it to a laptop in FY 2026. The anticipated increase in the
operating budget is approximately $1,200 every 4 years. To offset the cost of the increase, the staff
member has elected to forego their assigned tablet that was also scheduled for replacement in FY 2025.
Between the replacement cost and monthly service fees for the tablet, there is a long-term savings for the
City of $2,380 every 3 years with the upgraded cost only being $1,200 every 4 years.
The City does not allow the use of personal computers and personal mobile phones to remotely access
resources directly on the City’s network. In addition, Section 9.12 notes that approved telecommuters will
be provided the tools and applications for access to city technology resources. There are several times

This improvement request is to upgrade an existing smaller 2 Wheel Drive truck (unit 911) to a full size 4
Wheel Drive pickup truck. The current smaller truck struggles to get around with poor or wet project site
conditions and not safe when trying to navigate snow-packed roads for sidewalk inspections in the winter
on Dubuque's hills and side streets. For functional use of vehicles in the Engineering Department, a full
size 4 wheel drive pickup truck will provide the most safety. This improvement is related to city council
goal: Connected Community: Equitable Transportation, Technology Infrastructure, and Mobility. The
existing vehicle is used by the a Streets Engineering Technician.

This improvement provides for the funding to allow the Engineering Department to host an AmeriCorps
member through the City of Dubuque AmeriCorps Program. Through this request, the Engineering
department would host a Youth AmeriCorps Program Intern (0.32 FTE) to administer the Engineering
Department's planned classroom and summer job training program for high school students, along with
the classroom and job shadowing program for junior high students related to working for the City's
Engineering Department for those who would consider the architecture/engineering construction field as a
career choice. This unique, hands-on learning and mentoring program allows students to see first-hand
the skills, technology, and people that are working to ensure the public has access to safe public
infrastructure including streets, buildings, stormwater, and sanitary utilities, along with how sustainable and
resilient infrastructure helps to protect our environment and those living in our community.
The Youth AmeriCorps position will also provide direct mentoring to the kids participating in the program
with a portion of the program targeted to working with disadvantaged youth. The concept for this program
has been developed in conjunction with city staff from the Human Rights, Public Works, Water Resource
Recovery Center, Water Multicultural Family Center, and Parks and Recreation Departments, along with
the Dubuque Community School District, National Mississippi River Museum, and Dubuque Area Labor
Management Council. The goal is to develop content for the Engineering Department to serve as a phase
1 pilot and then expand the program to other city infrastructure-based departments. The content for the
program will be modeled off the "Work in Water Experience" developed by Wichita State University
through the EPA's Environmental Finance Center at the school.
Not only will this program provide students with new and eye-opening possibilities for career choices, it
will also teach them about future work opportunities related to their interest, specifically at the City of
Dubuque by promoting the Municipal Career Pathways employment pipeline. This multi-department
program directly supports the City's vision for improved equity and inclusion and strategies for poverty
reduction. This position has been approved in the past, and all those involved desired this position to
continue for another year. This request supports the City Council goal of Partnership for a Better Dubuque:
Building our Community that is Viable, Livable, and Equitable.

Significant Line Items
Employee Expense
1.FY 2026 employee expense reflects a 3.00% wage package increase non bargaining employees and a
3.50% wage package increase for operating engineers. The collective bargaining agreement between
the City of Dubuque and the Internation Union of Operating Engineers is in place from July 1, 2024
through June 30, 2029.
2.The Iowa Public Employee Retirement System (IPERS) City contribution of 9.44% is unchanged from
FY 2025 The employee contribution of 6.29% is unchanged from FY 2025.
3.The City portion of health insurance expense is unchanged from $1,119 in FY 2024 to $1,119 in FY
2025 per month, per contract, which results in an annual cost increased of $13,423 or 3%.
4.Overtime is decreased from $72,640 in FY 2025 to $49,774 in FY 2025. FY 2024 actual was $41,981.

10.Subdivision Inspection Reimbursement expense increased from $66,000 in FY 2025 to $73,300 in FY
2026 based on estimated development activity. This line item represents refunds issued to developers
for subdivision inspection fees. These fees are paid by developers in advance. In some instances, the
actual cost of the inspection is less than what the developer paid in advance, resulting in the developer
receiving a refund for the difference. In FY 2026, there is an estimated offsetting revenue of $67,354 in
the Subdivision Inspection Fee revenue line item.
11.Pay to Other Agency increased from $150,845 in FY 2025 to $173,981 in FY 2026. This line item
represents the contract with East Central Iowa Association for transportation planning ($25,000) which
is increased from FY 2025. This line items also includes the Catfish Creek Watershed Partnership
payment ($128,981) as part of the 28E agreement with Dubuque County and the Dubuque Soil &

15.Building Maintenance decreased from $196,889 in FY 2025 to $127,841 in FY 2026. This line item
represents money set aside for unexpected repairs and maintenance at City buildings and facilities.
Though using past actuals to budget for this account is challenging due to some areas seeing no
emergency repairs during a year, the overall decrease in this account is due to an effort to better align
the FY 2026 budget levels with past year actual maintenance for each building. Each building has a
set maintenance budget that is allocated each year. The buildings with notable changes in FY 2026
maintenance budgets include:
i.City Hall maintenance decreased from $60,000 in FY 2025 to $23,816 in FY 2026. The FY
2025 and FY 2024 budgets were above normal levels and based on the FY 2022 actual of
$74,540.
88 Page 939 of 1178
ii.Federal Building maintenance decreased from $42,540 in FY 2025 to $16,342 in FY 2026
based on the FY 2024 actual.
iii.Data Center budget was created at $5,000 to maintain the new location for the Information
Technology Data Center.
Other buildings and facilities in this line item include the City Hall Annex, Engine House No. 1, the 5th
Street Restrooms, Storm Ditch Remediation, the Multicultural Family Center (MFC), and the Detention
Basin Maintenance. These areas saw no major changes.
16.Property Insurance increased from $146,746 in FY 2025 to $148,755 in FY 2026 based on information
received from Iowa Communities Assurance Pool (ICAP). The FY 2024 actual was $76,829. The FY
2023 actual was $82,482.
17.General Liability Insurance decreased from $50,798 in FY 2025 to $50,296 in FY 2026 based on
information received from Iowa Communities Assurance Pool (ICAP). The FY 2024 actual was
$39,360. The FY 2023 actual was $37,290.
18.Technology Services decreased from $394,337 in FY 2025 to $317,658 in FY 2026. The FY 2024
actual was $237,515. This line item represents various pieces of software used by the Engineering
department, as well as data plans for tablets. This line item is variable each year due to some software
renewals not being due every year. Software prices generally increase each year. The FY 2026 budget
includes the following amounts
FY 2025
Budget
FY 2026
Requested
Engineering Administration $10,688 $6,978
Facilities Management $14,869 $16,303
Project Engineering $269,738 $236,002
Traffic Engineering $41,655 $995
Sanitary Administration $35,452 $38,224
Stormwater Administration $21,935 $19,156
$394,337 $317,658
In FY 2026, one activity that saw major change was Project Engineering, which decreased from
$269,738 in FY 2025 to $236,002 in FY 2026. This is due to FY 2025 having major software renewals,
which are based on a schedule and do not occur every year. The other activity that saw a major
change was Traffic Engineering. This decreased from $41,655 in FY 2025 to $995 in FY 2026. This is
due to correcting where video viewer software is being budgeted.
19.Property Tax expense increased from $149,631 in FY 2025 to $425,072 in FY 2026. The FY 2024
actual was $126,420. This line item represents the property taxes paid to Dubuque County on property
that the City owns but leases to other entities. Most lease agreements require the leaseholders to pay
the property taxes on the property they are leasing. In the past, a majority of lease agreements
required the leaseholder to make payments for property taxes directly to Dubuque County. This
approach sometimes lead to delays in payments, meaning the City had past due properties. To ensure
property taxes for all City owned property are paid on time, the City implemented a new payment
procedure in FY 2025. The City now pays all property taxes upfront to Dubuque County to avoid
delinquency, then the City issues invoices to leaseholders for payment for property taxes. The FY 2026
budget has been adjusted to reflect the implementation of this new upfront payment procedure. As a
89 Page 940 of 1178
result of the new payment procedure being implemented in FY 2025, the FY 2025 actual property tax
expense is $416,061.
20.Equipment Maintenance Repair decreased from $61,430 in FY 2025 to $33,435 in FY 2026. The FY
2024 actual was $22,005. This line item represents money set aside for repairs and maintenance for
machinery at City buildings and facilities. Each City building/facility has a set budget for emergency
machinery repairs that is allocated each year. Using past actuals to budget for this account is
challenging due to some buildings/facilities seeing no emergency repairs to machinery during a year.
The overall decrease from FY 2025 is due to better aligning the budget with historical trends.
21.Education Reimbursement decreased from $74,610 in FY 2025 to $72,799 in FY 2026. This line item
represents various training and professional development opportunities for Engineering staff. This line
item also includes Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for Professional Engineering certifications. The

The table below shows the stormwater rates adopted since Fiscal Year 2021 and the rate proposed with
the FY 2026 budget.
Rate Per
Single Family
Unit
(SFU)% Increase
Fiscal Year 2021 - Adopted Per Ordinance 21-20 $ 8.29 0.00 %
Fiscal Year 2022 - Adopted Per Ordinance 10-21 $ 8.85 6.76 %
Fiscal Year 2023 - Adopted Per Ordinance 13-22 $ 9.00 1.69 %
Fiscal Year 2024 - Adopted Per Ordinance 14-23 $ 10.00 11.11 %
Fiscal Year 2025 - Adopted per Ordinance 14-24 $ 10.50 5.00 %
Fiscal Year 2026 - Proposed $ 11.03 5.00 %
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 approved 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 the approved
city. 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. However, due to the uncertain economic impacts of the current COVID-19 pandemic,
the rate structure was reconsidered for Fiscal Year 2021. 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 would not reach $9.00 per month until FY23, six
years later than previously scheduled.

Subject: Sheri Henschel 995 June Drive/ Sewer Project/1887 Miller Road
Caution! This message was sent from outside your organization. Never give your
login information and password over email!
I am speaking to you tonight in regards to the proposed sanitary sewer expansion project. I am in
disagreement with the 5.00 monthly fee to every homeowner in Dbq.
I propose that any future sewer developments in the city should be charged to the developers to cover
these costs.
The latest subdivision put in by Marty McNamer -Timber Hyrst Estates is a prime example of how
they can afford it. Marty has sold approx 200 lots with an ave price of $75,000 each. This equates to
15 million dollars. Subtract the infrastructure costs-he probably netted 10 million dollars.
This proposed sewer project will affect my family farm again! When Marty put that subdivision in,
they installed 18" sewer pipe thru our farmland. Now they want to dig that up and install 48" pipe in
it's place. This project will also include going underneath catfish creek. This whole endeavour will
require heavy machinery that will tear up my gravel roads! Next will come the destruction of the
Alfalfa hay field, and fences.What will I do with my horses? Lastly I would like to mention the
destruction of the natural habitat that has finally been restored from the first time the sewer pipe was
installed.
As stated on KCRG news, the sanitary sewer system was built in the 1950's. It contains Kennedy all,
Industrial Center West and future developments sites.The city states this improvement will have
enough room for expansion for 50 years.
One of my questions tonight is since the city has been well aware of the sewer issue for years-Why
was there not a larger sewer pipe installed when Mary Mcnamer put in the subdivision? Also the SW
arterial was coming thru at that time. Why was this sewer expansion not addressed then? I would like
to be assured this time that we will not be doing this in another 15 years.
So now I will have to endure more emotional distress as our farm is torn up again. I also want to
mention the time and inconvenience for this disruption to our land for the project. Also How am I to
recover from all of this financial hardship?
Lastly I would like to add that this is not fair to me on two counts. One, the digging up of my farm
to lay this 48" pipe and two- the 5 dollar monthly sewer fee. This sewer fee is not fair to every
homeowner in DBQ. Charge the increase to the developers. They can Afford it. Thank You Sheri
Heschel.
