DATE: April 15, 2026
Economic Development Director Jill Connors is recommending City Council adopt the
attached Resolution of Adoption for the Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan,
Version 2026.1 for Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development District.
The proposed Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan for the District would
expand the District to include property to be designated as a new Subarea Y. The
expansion of the District to include Subarea Y, which exists within the Dubuque
Industrial Center West Industrial Park on Chavenelle Road, would allow for future
development of currently undeveloped land.
City staff have been approached by a private developer regarding a potential industrial
project on this property. Adding the property to the Urban Renewal Area would make
financial incentives available if a development agreement is ultimately reached.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

INTRODUCTION
This memorandum presents for City Council consideration a Resolution of Adoption for
the Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan, Version 2026.1 for the Dubuque
Industrial Center Economic Development District ("District").
The proposed Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan ("Urban Renewal Plan") for
the District would expand the District to include property to be designated as a new
Subarea Y, as. The expansion of the District to include Subarea Y would allow for future
development of currently undeveloped land.
BACKGROUND
The original Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development District was created on
May 2, 1988. The District is an urban renewal area which allows the City of Dubuque to
capture tax increment revenue from improvements made in the District in order to
promote economic development activities. The original area included the Dubuque
Industrial Center (known as Subarea A) and has been expanded several times over the
years to include Dubuque Industrial Center West, the County Farm, the Bergfeld Farm,
the North Siegert Farm, the Rail Site, the South Siegert Farm, the Graf Farm, McFadden
Farms, small adjacent parcels, and several County-owned parcels (known as Subareas
B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W and X).
DISCUSSION
Page 674 of 901
This proposed expansion and amendment of the Dubuque Industrial Center Economic
Development District would result in the addition of property, to be designated as a new
Subarea Y. The expansion of the District is necessary to encourage future development
of the land in Subarea Y. The proposed Subarea Y consists of one parcel of land, which
is currently undeveloped.
The proposed Subarea Y exists within the Dubuque Industrial Center West Industrial Park
on Chavenelle Road. However, the privately-owned land has never been included in the
Dubuque Industrial Center Urban Renewal Area. Including Subarea Y in the Urban
Renewal Area will allow for and encourage future development of the land. City staff have
been approached by a private developer regarding a potential industrial project on this
property. Adding the property to the Urban Renewal Area would make financial incentives
available if a development agreement is ultimately reached.
A consultation process was conducted with the affected taxing entities as required by
Chapter 403.5 of the lowa Code. Prior to the meeting, the affected taxing bodies were
mailed copies of the Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan and the Notice of Public
Hearing. The required consultation to discuss, question, or object to the findings in these
documents was held Tuesday, March 24, 2026. No written objections or recommended
changes to the Amended and Restated Plan were received.
On April 10, 2026, the notice of public hearing was published to allow for the appropriate
publication requirements for the proposed Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan,
Version 2026.1
The City of Dubuque has had tremendous success with its economic development
approach, receiving multiple national recognitions forjob creation. This is in no small part
due to the City's decision in the mid 1990's to acquire and develop over 900 acres of
property to provide a 20-year supply of industrial park land. This proposed modification
of the District would further the City's goals for economic development.
RECOMMENDATION / ACTION STEP
I recommend, following the public hearing, the City Council adopt the attached Resolution
of Adoption for the Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan, Version 2026.1 for
Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development District.

AMENDED and RESTATED
DUBUQUE INDUSTRIAL CENTER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT
URBAN RENEWAL PLAN
City of Dubuque, lowa
A. INTRODUCTION
This AMENDED and RESTATED URBAN RENEWAL PLAN (the "Plan") has been
prepared to provide for the further development and redevelopment of the DUBUQUE
INDUSTRIAL CENTER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT (the "District") first
established by the City of Dubuque on May 2, 1988. Its intent is to stimulate economic
development activities within the expanded District through the commitment of public
actions as specified herein.
To achieve this objective, the City of Dubuque shall undertake the urban renewal actions
specified in this Plan, pursuant to the powers granted to it under Chapter 403 of the lowa
Code, Urban Renewal Law.
This Plan shall serve as a new urban renewal plan for the District described herein. The
Plan shall be viewed as a single plan for purposes of fulfilling the objectives of this Plan.
The separate subareas of this Plan (the "Subarea(s)") will be maintained and observed
for those purposes which are aided by or in need of the division, but the combined area
comprising the District shall be treated together for planning and redevelopment
purposes.
The division of taxation authorized by Section 403.19 and the separation of incremental
taxes as defined in Section 403.19(2) have been implemented in the existing area of the
District (the different areas of the District are hereinafter referred to as Subareas). Under
the terms of this Plan, the tax increment mechanism shall continue in the existing
Subareas and shall be implemented within a new Subarea being added to the District.
Incremental taxes shall continue to be determined separately with respect to each of the
Subareas comprising the District, and when collected shall be applied, subject to such
liens and priorities as may exist or be from time to time provided, with respect to the
Amended and Restated Dubuque Industrial Center Economic Development District, as
so amended.
B. OBJECTIVES
The primary objectives of the Plan are the development and redevelopment of the District
for economic development activities, primarily industrial park development, through:
4
Page 679 of 901
1. Provision of marketable industrial development sites for the purpose of job-
creating economic development activities;
2. Provision of public infrastructure improvements, including sanitary sewer,
water and stormwater detention, supportive of full development of the
District;
3. Provision of a safe, efficient and attractive circulation system;
4. Establishment of design standards which will assure cohesive and
compatible development and redevelopment of the District;
5. Provision of public amenities that provide an aesthetically appealing
environment, including open space, buffering, landscaping, water features,
signage and lighting to create a distinctive and attractive setting;
6. Creation of financial incentives necessary to encourage new and existing
businesses to invest in the District; and
7. Expansion of the property tax base of the District.
C. DISTRICT BOUNDARIES
The District is located entirely within the County of Dubuque, State of lowa. Most of the
District, including all of Subareas A, B, C (as amended), D, E, G, H, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q,
R, S, T, U, V, W, and X currently is within the corporate limits of the City of Dubuque. In
accordance with lowa Code Section 403.17(4), Dubuque County consented to the
inclusion of Subarea F in the District in a Joint Agreement between the City and County,
dated April 20, 2015. The City expects that Subarea F ultimately will become part of the
City of Dubuque. In accordance with lowa Code Section 403.17(4), Dubuque County
consented to the inclusion of Subareas I and J in the District in a JointAgreement between
the City and County, dated August 8, 2016.
This Plan creates a new subarea within the District, Subarea Y, by adding property to the
District (see Attachment D).
The City of Dubuque believes that the objectives of the Plan can best be accomplished
by defining the real property included within the District as twenty-five separate areas so
as to distinguish the original District (Subarea A) from the subsequent expansion areas
(Subareas B (as amended), C (as amended), D, E (as amended), F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M,
N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, and Y).
The descriptions of the boundaries of each Subarea are attached to this Plan as
ATTACHMENT D, District Boundary Description by Subarea.
The boundaries of the District are delineated on the Subarea Map, attached to this Plan
5
Page 680 of 901
as ATTACHMENTS A-1 and A-2).
The City of Dubuque reserves the right to further modify the boundaries of the District at
some future date. Any amendments to the Plan will be completed in accordance with
Chapter 403 of the lowa Code, Urban Renewal Law.

E. DEVELOPMENT & REDEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENTS
The LAND USE and PLANNING AND DESIGN CRITERIA set forth herein shall apply to

assisted by the City through any of the PUBLIC PURPOSE ACTIVITIES listed above.
1. Land Use
Subareas A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, and
Y shall continue to be developed under the regulations of the existing Dubuque
Industrial Center Planned Industrial District. The allowed uses provide for a mix of
commercial and industrial land use activities within a quality industrial park setting.
LAND USE maps (Attachments B-1 and B-2) identify the existing and the
proposed land uses within Subareas A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N,
O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, and Y.
2. Planning and Design Criteria
The planning criteria to be used to guide the physical development of Subareas A,
B, C, D, E, F, G, H, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, and Y are those
standards and guidelines contained within the City of Dubuque's Unified
Development Code and other applicable local, state and federal codes and
ordinances.
a. Subarea A development will continue to be additionally governed by the
Conditions of Development and Operation Documents of the Dubuque
Industrial Center Planned Industrial District as amended from time to time.
b. Subareas B, C, D, E, F, K, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, and Y will develop
under a PI Planned Industrial District ordinance as required by Section 16-
5-24 of the City of Dubuque's Unified Development Code. Development will
follow the Planned Unit Development regulations which require a
conceptual development plan and specific design and performance
standards to be approved by ordinance.
c. Subareas G, H, L, and M are intended to develop as an Industrial area
similar to Subareas B, C, D, E, and F.
d. Subareas I, J, and a portion of Subarea P are located in Dubuque County
outside of City of Dubuque corporate limits and therefore are not subject to
10
Page 685 of 901
City Development Codes.
F. LAND ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION
The City of Dubuque is prepared to acquire and dispose of property in support of the
development and redevelopment of the District within the parameters set forth below.
1. Land Acquisition
The City has acquired substantially all of the land located within the District, except
Subareas I and J, and has made the same available for private development in
accordance with this Plan.
2. Land Disposition
All City owned land that is available for development within the District, will be sold
for the development of viable uses consistent with this Plan and not for purposes
of speculation.
Land will be disposed of in accordance with the requirements set forth in Chapter
403 of the lowa Code, Urban Renewal Law. Developers will be selected on the
basis of the quality of their proposals and their ability to carry out such proposals
while complying with the requirements of this Plan.
Developers will be required by contractual agreement to observe the Land Use
Requirements and Planning and Design Criteria of this Plan. The contract and
other disposition documents will set forth the provisions, standards and criteria for
achieving the objectives and requirements outlined in this Plan.
3. Relocation Requirements
No relocation is anticipated at this time; however, if any relocation is necessary as
part of the eligible urban renewal projects, the City will follow all applicable
relocation requirements.
G. FINANCING ACTIVITIES
To meet the OBJECTIVES of this Plan and to encourage the development of the District
and private investment therein, the City of Dubuque is prepared to provide financial
assistance to qualified industries and businesses through the making of loans or grants
under Chapter 15A of the lowa Code and through the use of tax increment financing under
Chapter 403 of the lowa Code.
1. Chapter 15A Loan or Grant
11
Page 686 of 901
The City of Dubuque has determined that the making of loans or grants of public
funds to qualified industries and businesses is necessary to aid in the planning,
undertaking and completion of urban renewal projects authorized under this Plan
within the meaning of Section 384.24(3)(q) of the lowa Code. Accordingly, in
furtherance of the objectives of this Plan, the City of Dubuque may determine to
issue bonds or loan agreements, in reliance upon the authority of Section 384.24A,
Section 384.24(3)(q), Section 403.12 (general obligation bonds) or Section 403.9
(tax increment bonds), for the purpose of making loans or grants of public funds to
qualified businesses located within the District. Alternatively, the City may
determine to use available funds for the making of such loans or grants. In
determining qualifications of recipients and whether to make any such individual
loans or grants, the City of Dubuque shall consider one or more of the factors set
forth in Section 15A.1 of the lowa Code on a case-by-case basis.
2. Tax Increment Financinq
The City of Dubuque is prepared to utilize tax increment financing as a means of
financing eligible costs incurred to implement the Public Purpose Activities
identified in Part D of this Plan. Bonds, tax rebate agreements and/or loan
agreements may be issued by the City under the authority of Section 403.9 of the
lowa Code (tax increment bonds) or Section 384.24A, Section 384.24(3)(q) and
Section 403.12 (general obligation bonds).
The City acknowledges that the use of tax increment revenues delays the ability
of other local taxing bodies to realize immediately the direct tax benefits of new
development in the District. The City believes, however, that the use of tax
increment revenues to finance the development of new industrial land and to
promote private investment in the District is necessary in the public interest to
achieve the OBJECTIVES of this Plan. Without the use of this special financing
tool, new investment may not otherwise occur or may occur within another
jurisdiction. If new development does not take place in Dubuque, property values
could stagnate and the City, County and School District may receive less taxes
during the duration of this Plan than they would have if this Plan were not
implemented.
Tax increment financing will provide a long-term payback in overall increased tax
base for the City, County and School District. The initial public investment required
to generate new private investment will ultimately increase the taxable value of the
District well beyond its existing base value.
Tax increment reimbursement may be sought for, among other things, the
following costs to the extent they are incurred by the City:
a. Planning and administration of the Plan;
b. Construction of public infrastructure improvements and facilities within the
12
Page 687 of 901
District;
c. Acquisition, installation, maintenance and replacement of public
investments throughout the District including but not limited to street lights,
landscaping and buffers, signage and appropriate amenities;
d. Acquisition of land and/or buildings and preparation of same for sale or
lease to private developers, including any "write down" of the sale price of
the land and/or building;
e. Preservation, conservation, development or redevelopment of buildings or
facilities within the District to be sold or leased to qualified businesses;
f. Loans or grants to qualified businesses under Chapter 15A of the lowa
Code, including tax rebate payments, debt service payments on any bonds
issued to finance such loans or grants, for purposes of expanding the
business or activity, or other qualifying loan programs established in support
of the Plan;
g. Providing the matching share for a variety of local, state and federal grants
and loans; and
h. Any of the costs incurred in connection with any of the PUBLIC PURPOSE
ACTIVITIES described in Part D of this Plan.
3. Proposed Amount of Indebtedness
At this time, the extent of improvements and new development within the District
is only generally known. As such, the amount and duration for use of the tax
increment revenues for public improvements and/or private development can only
be estimated; however, the actual use and amount of tax increment revenues to
be used by the City for District activities will be determined at the time specific
development is proposed.
It is anticipated that the maximum amount of indebtedness which will qualify for
tax increment revenue reimbursement during the duration of this Plan, including
acquisition, public improvements and private development assistance within the
District, will not exceed $70,500,000.
The City of Dubuque's current general debt subject to the statutory debt limit is
$108,410,165 (a list of the outstanding obligations is found at Attachment C) and the
current statutory debt limit is $323,629,585.
H. STATE AND LOCAL REQUIREMENTS
