Improvement Package SummarX
1 of 8
This improvement package request is for 1,510 (.72 FTE) additional hours for temporary Park Rangers
during the park season. In 2015, 2 full-time Park Ranger positions were eliminated and hours reduced for
the temporary Park Rangers due to hiring freeze and budget cuts. Currently there is one Park Ranger
scheduled for evenings Monday through Thursday and two Park Rangers scheduled for evenings on Friday,
Saturday and Sunday. They are unable to provide the level of service expected by the Parks and
Recreation Department and an increase in required training has also reduced their amount of hours in the
field. The increased hours would provide for two Park Rangers on Monday through Thursday evenings and
additional daytime hours on Saturdays and Sundays. The hours would also decrease time needed by the
Police Department to respond to calls that park rangers can handle. This request supports the City Council
Goal of Diverse Arts, Culture, Parks and Recreation: Experiences and Activities: Have well-built, well-
maintained, upgraded and expanded parks, park amenities and recreational/park facilities.

This improvement package request is for one 1.0 FTE, Forestry Technician. There are currently Forestry
Technicians (2.0 FTE) in the Forestry Activity. Funds are also budgeted for (2) Temporary Forestry Laborers

to operate the forestry equipment. This does not allow for forestry staff to efficiently perForm their duties
especially during storm response. The Forestry activity has seen an increased workload due to more
frequent storms, tree plantings, and additional training and work requirements. The cost of the new Forestry
Technician would be $72,935. This request supports the City Council Goal of Diverse Arts, Culture, Parks

Maste iece on the Mississi Z Zoo��2olvzoi3
YP pp Zoi�*Zoig
TO: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
FROM: Matthew K. Kalcevich, Parks and Recreation Director
SUBJECT: Park Division Greenhouse Activity Information
DATE: April 10, 2026
INTRODUCTION
This memo is to provide information related to the greenhouse activity within the City's
Parks and Recreation Department Park Division.
BACKGROUND
The Greenhouse activity is a part of the Park Division. The requested budget for fiscal
year 2027 is $655,444. A simple breakdown of this budget is provided in Appendix A.
DISCUSSION
The Greenhouse activity includes one (1 FTE) full-time Horticulturist; three (3 FTE) full-
time Assistant Horticulturists; one(.58 FTE) shared Assistant Horticulturist with Public
Works and four (4)Temporary Landscape Crew Member positions (2.42 FTE).
The staff assigned to this activity are responsible for City owned areas that include
landscaping. A comprehensive list of these areas is provided in Appendix B. These
landscaped areas can be areas that include annual plants, perennial plants, native
plants or any combination of the three. These landscaped areas require regular
maintenance including herbicide applications for weed control, replenishment of mulch,
pruning, planting, watering, litter control, irrigation repair where necessary and
monitoring for good plant health and other issues that may arise. Having
knowledgeable and skilled staff allows them to be able to respond in a timely manner
when complaints or issues arise.
The Greenhouse Activity has an ongoing cycle that typically starts in the winter months.
During the winter months, staff are very busy preparing for the next season, whether it
1
Page 1120 of 1132
be mulching landscaped areas as weather allows, preparing tools and equipment, or
cleaning and sanitizing pots that are reused for the greenhouse. Staff also is
responsible for snow removal duties as are all Park Division employees.
The growing of annual plants in the City's greenhouse is just one part of the entire
scope of duties perFormed by Greenhouse Activity staff. Preparation for the greenhouse
operation begins in the winter months with cleaning of pots, baskets and greenhouse
benches for the upcoming season. Bags of specialty mixed potting soil are purchased
in bulk and annual plants that have been ordered from wholesale vendors begin to
arrive in February. Some of the annual plants are seeds and some of them are small
plugs. They are potted and put in the greenhouse to begin their growth cycle. The
Horticulturist is responsible for the watering and growing of these plants until they are
planted in numerous locations throughout the City in May and June. Some plants are
also distributed to other City Departments and partners like the Storybook Children's
Zoo. The total number of annual plants grown and planted averages 20,000 plants per
season. This does not include some plants that are fully grown and purchased from a
commercial vendor. A comprehensive list of areas planted with annual plants is
provided in Appendix C.
Annual plant seeds or plugs are purchased at wholesale pricing. This allows the
Horticulturist to pick new and different varieties of plants and plan new landscape
designs where annual plants will be planted each season for a reduced cost. On
• average different varieties and sizes of annual plants grown in the City's greenhouse
are estimated at $1 to $2 per plant fully grown. The same plant purchased from a
commercial vendor would cost $4 to $7 each. When purchasing plants from an outside
vendor, shipping costs are typically included. There is not a local vendor that can supply
the quantities needed for the annual flower planting program.
Typically, in the fall there are some plants that are removed and supplemented with
Mums or other fall plants. Most of these plants are not grown in the greenhouse and �
are purchased from a commercial vendor that can supply the quantities needed. A
breakdown of the FY2025 actual budget allocated for plants and landscaping
maintenance is provided in Appendix D.
Hanging flower baskets are hung in the Port of Dubuque, Bee Branch Creek Greenway.
And the Millwork District. The total number of hanging baskets is three hundred
seventy-two (372). The Port of Dubuque and the Bee Branch Baskets are grown by a
commercial vendor. The Millwork District baskets are planted and grown in the City's
greenhouse. Each location has a different style of basket and has different numbers of
plants in them. All of the hanging baskets are owned by the City. The Port of Dubuque
and Bee Creek Greenway baskets are shipped to the vendor for planting and
establishment. Once fully grown, the baskets are then shipped back and installed in
their appropriate locations.
The Public Works Department assists with watering the hanging baskets in the Port of
Dubuque. Greenhouse Activity staff water the hanging baskets in the Millwork District.
The Bee Branch Creek Greenway hanging baskets are irrigated. All of these hanging
baskets are monitored by the Greenhouse activity. The hanging baskets in the Port of
2
Page 1121 of 1132
Dubuque and Bee Branch Creek Greenway are replaced in the fall providing new colors
that accent the fall season. A cost breakdown of the hanging baskets is provided in
Appendix E.
The Greenhouse Activity is a very important and integral part of the Park Division
operation. The quantity and quality of service far exceed the budget. The knowledge
and experience of an internal City team make taking care of all the assigned areas very
streamlined and responsive to community members when needed. Safety is always a
priority and at the forefront of operations. The staff take great pride and care of all the
landscaped areas throughout the entire City and provide the community with a sense of
pride and belonging. Visitors to the community always recognize the many landscaped
areas, hanging baskets and beautiful displays of flowers throughout the City.
