ACTION ITEMS 1. Commercial Air Service Minimum Revenue Guarantee (MRG): Motion by Roussell to receive and file the documents and place on the December 15, 2025, agenda. Seconded by Farber. City Council members discussed the history and current challenges of maintaining air service in Dubuque, empha- sizing the importance of receiving this update ahead of December 10, 2025, deadline for the business community to decide on potential funding support. This decision will help determine whether the City Council must direct the Dubuque Regional Airport Commission to terminate its agreement with Denver Air Connection due to insufficient funding for the MRG. If service is discontinued, the Council will direct the Dubuque Regional Airport Commission to issue Denver Air Connection the required 90-day termi- nation notice, noting that Denver Air Connection may decide to cease service sooner than the 90 -day timeframe. Council members also expressed concern that ending the current commercial air service could make it more difficult to attract future air carriers. In response to questions, Airport Director Todd Dalsing explained that the City receives federal funding through the Airport Improvement Program (AIP), which is based on annual passenger enplanements. He noted that as an FAA -certified airport, Dubuque must maintain compliance with FAA standards, requiring ongoing upgrades. The AIP typically covers 90% of project costs for upgrades, with the City responsible for the remaining 10%. Without commercial air service, the City would lose access to this funding and bear the full cost of improve- ments. Dalsing added that funding is secured through Fiscal Year 2027, with impacts expected in Fiscal Year 2028 if service ends. He also clarified that flights from the University of Dubuque’s Aviation School do not count toward enplanement totals. Motion carried 7-0. 2. Fire Department FTE Increase and Fire Cost Recovery Fee : Motion by Jones to receive and file the documents and approve the creation of a Fire Cost Recovery Fee and the addition of five firefighter positions. Seconded by Wethal. Fire Chief Amy Scheller and EMS Bureau Chief Sam Janecke made a presentation. Council members referenced the number of threats identified in the Fire Department’s Strategic Plan, highlighting the increasing demands on firefighters. In response to a question, Van Mil- ligen confirmed that while the City has historically collected fees for services, rates for co -payers and insurers have not increased. He stated that an analysis will be conducted every year to determine an annual cost of living (COLA) increase on fees. He clarified that nine additional firefighter positions, that will be requested through the Fiscal Year 2027 budget process , would be fully funded through Fiscal Year 2030 contingent upon a successful Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grant, with property tax support required thereafter. He emphasized that only the five additional fire- fighter positions are being requested at this time. Scheller summarized the previous and current civil service hiring process and Janecke addressed questions about reimbursement rates and cost report- ing. Council members expressed support for the recommendations, citing the importance of cost re- covery and aligning staffing levels with national standards to better serve the community. Motion carried 7-0. 3. Award of Public Improvement Construction Contract — Comiskey Park Phase 2 Redevelopment Project: Motion by Sprank to receive and file the documents and adopt Resolution No. 385-25 Awarding the Public Improvement Construction Contract for the Comiskey Park Phase 2 Redevelopment Project.
