Maste iece on the Mississi t 2oo�•zoiz•zois �P Pp zoi�*zoi9 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members FROM: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: Support of a Town Clock Lighting Partnership with Dubuque Forward DATE: April 1, 2026 Andy Butler of Dubuque Forward has approached the City with a concept to light the Town Clock. This would be through funding and efforts led by Dubuque Forward with the City being the recipient of the proposed improvements. Park and Recreation Director Matt Kalcevich advises, "That after several meetings and discussions of Dubuque Forward and City staff, which included a lighting designer and potential contracting partner, the city expanded conversations to include multiple departments to review the concept. The feedback about this concept has been positive. However, several areas of concern need to be evaluated including the provision of power, sensitivity with installation, availability of replacement parts, light pollution, and the warranty." It is anticipated that these can be quickly resolved. A vote of support by the City Council would allow work on the project to proceed, in relation to a timeline requested by Dubuque Forward to possibly have the project ready to be fully activated by July 4, 2026. While any delay would miss the July 4 target date, the project could proceed at a slower pace. Asssistant City Planner Chris Happ Olson advises, "When time is allowed, we would take something as visually prominent as this to our Historic Preservation Commission for an advisory review, as it is on a City structure and a visible icon from the downtown and bluff neighborhoods, although the structure is in no formal district that would trigger this type of historic review. The timing to go to City Council by April 6 doesn't support such a review, as the Commission already met in March. "In my opinion, whether this structure is considered to be National Register eligible would be debatable. Erring on the side of caution, when I review this, the nature of the work proposed does not appear to visually change the physical structure, other than its visibility at night. When combined with the proposed modification's reversibility, the change appears to have negligible impact on that resource." "Based on this, I feel that staff review, with no adverse effect on a potentially historic structure, is sufficient." Page 1315 of 2358 Consistent with the proposal from Dubuque Forward, Dubuque Forward would be responsible for all implementation expenses and would purchase spare replacement parts for city inventory. The city would then be responsible for all maintenance and electrical expenses. The maintenance and electrical expenses are anticipated to be minimal for the foreseeable future. I respectfully recommend Mayor and City Council authorization to proceed with this project and authorization to sign the final agreement that will be completed soon, consistent with the described understanding, so the project can be completed by July 4, 2026. v Mic ael C.

Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Matthew K. Kalcevich, Parks and Recreation Director SUBJECT: Support of a Town Clock Lighting Partnership with Dubuque Forward DATE: April 1, 2026 INTRODUCTION This is a request for support from the City Council to proceed with planning and the structuring of a formal agreement with Dubuque Forward to provide support for a project to light the Town Clock located Downtown on Main Street. BACKGROUND In the Fall of 2025, Dubuque Forward approached the City with a concept to light the Town Clock. This would be through funding and efforts led by Dubuque Forward with the City being the recipient of the proposed improvements. After several meetings and discussions of Dubuque Forward and City staff, which included a lighting designer and potential contracting partner, the city expanded conversations to include multiple departments to review the concept. DISCUSSION This idea has been part of a review by various city departments going back over 10+ years. The feedback about this concept has been positive. However, several areas of concern need to be evaluated including the provision of power, sensitivity with installation, availability of replacement parts, light pollution, and the warranty. A vote of support by the City Council would allow work on the project to proceed, in relation to a timeline requested by Dubuque Forward to possibly have the project ready to be fully activated by July 4, 2026. Dubuque Forward would be responsible for all implementation expenses and would 1 Page 1317 of 2358 purchase spare replacement parts for city inventory. The city would then be responsible for all maintenance and electrical expenses. The electrical expenses are anticipated to be minimal. Staff are seeking authorization to sign the final agreement, consistent with this understanding, so the project can be completed by July 4, 2026. ACTION REQUESTED I respectfully request City Council support of this action to work toward finalizing an agreement and therefore empowering city staff to conduct the required assessment and planning of logistics for the lighting of the Town Clock, in full connection with the proposal by Dubuque Forward.

Project Overview Dubuque Forward has initiated a design study to illuminate the historic Town Clock on Main Street.As a longstanding landmark and visual anchor of downtown,the Town Clock serves as a symbol of the community; enhancing its presence at night will create a meaningful visual impact for both residents and visitors. To advance this effort, Dubuque Forward has partnered with CSLA Lighting,the design team behind the successful illumination of the former St. Mary's steeple—now known as Steeple Square.Their proven experience ensures a thoughtful, high-quality lighting approach that highlights the Town Clock's historic and civic importance. 1.1.1. The Ask Dubuque Forward will lead the efforts to raise private funds to pay for the material and labor needed to install the lighting as outlined in the following material. It is estimated that the cost of the project will be approximately$85,000. Dubuque Forward will purchase "attic stock"for the fixtures, controllers and power supplies to ensure any maintenance or replacement is done with like kind and quality of material. Upon completion,the completed project will be turned over to the city. The city will then be responsible for the ongoing utility costs and maintenance. A&G has compiled an estimate of ongoing utility costs based on the fixtures being used. This estimate is included in the supporting documentation and is anticipated to be less than $500 per year. The goal is to complete the project so that a Grand Lighting Ceremony can be held the weekend of July 4th. The timing is tight but very doable with all of the public and private teams working closely together. 1.1.2 The Team Dubuque Forward:Andy Butler,Sam Mulgrew, Emily Sewell,Anna Their, Nelson Klavitter, Mike Stickley Crescent Electric: Pat Faley CSLA: Rob Beaman City of Dubuque: Matthew Kalcevich Page 1320 of 2358 Page 1321 of 2358 1 / \ i \ �� i r i � '1 ,� � '� � `' � � PHOTOMETRIC CALCULATION NOTE:These calculations are for guidance only.Results depend on provided C I�e n L . information.My change in dimensions, colors,textures or other properties could affect results.Measured values may differ from calculated values due to calculation Project name : LP2023-88846-DUBUQUE CLOCK TOWER - DUBUQUE, IA methods,componentperfomace,field conditions,etc. iis _- 22ft = �:; - � 16ft � =-- 0 0 � =� o � a �ILL a .�P � 0 0 �� PLAN Luminaire Schedule Symbol Qty Label Arrangement LLF Description Lum.Watts Lum.Lumens � 1 B1 Single 0.950 LBL-[VOLTAGE]-40K-NS-[FINISH]-[CONTROL]-[OPTIONS]-UL-[CABLE] 50 5018 8 B2 Single 0.950 LBS-[VOLTAGE]-40K-NAS-[FINISH]-[CONTROL]-[OPTIONS]-UL-[CABLE] 13.2 943 � 8 B3 Single 0.950 LBS-[VOLTAGE]-40K-NS-[FINISH]-[CONTROL]-[OPTIONS]-UL-[CABLE] 12.6 1410 — 12 L1 Single 0.950 LOGN-4W-48V-48-40K-80-WW-HFR-[MOUNTING]-[FINISH]-[CONTROL]-UL 16.1 1525 ELEVATION 1 ELEVATION 2 4 L2 Single 1.800 LOGN-4W-48V-48-40K-80-10x30-CL-[MOUNTING]-[FINISH]-[CONTROL]-UL 16.1 1435 Page 1 of 2 � Lumenpulse Group,1220 Marie-Victorin Blvd.,Longueuil(Quebec)Canada J4G 2H9 1.877.937.3003 P.514.937.3003 F.514.937.6289 lumen �I�� 3/10/2026 info@lumenpulse.com www.lumenpulsegroup.com � HG-R1 F OR-002_EN_R4 Lumenpulse reserves the right to make changes to this product at any time without prior notice and such modification shall be effective immediately.

This is the area of the code where this type of project comes under review: 16-10-1: HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION: M. Powers: The commission has the following powers, duties, and responsibilities: 15. To serve as an advisory design review body to the city council for review of public works projects which have historic preservation implications in historic districts, individually designated historic properties, or for alteration of landmarks, landmark sites or structures, that would result in a material change in appearance or be visible from the public way. 16. To serve as an advisory review body to the city council for the review of public planning, design, construction, and maintenance needs in conservation planning areas upon request from the city council. (Ord. 40-15, 6-1-2015; amd. Ord. 31-24, 6-17-2024) Based on this, I feel that staff review,with no adverse effect on a potentially historic structure, is sufficient. Please let me know if you have any questions.

The attached proposal outlines the ask, the timelines, the team involved, and the work that's been done to date. Our goal is to have a grand lighting ceremony the weekend of July 4. That schedule is very tight, but also very doable if we work together to get this done. After you've reviewed the proposal, please let me know if you have any questions. Obviously, city planning, engineering, and historical reviews all need to happen in addition to council approval. Dubuque Forward is prepared to move ahead quickly so it would be fantastic if this was something that could make it to the April 6 Council agenda. This project will highlight an amazing element of Dubuque and be additive to all of the activity under way. Have a great weekend! Andrew J.
