Improvement Package Summary
1 of 5
This improvement package was submitted as recurring but is being recommended as non-recurring.
This improvement package request is for $11,400 in recurring funding for Mental Health Wellness
Checks. The Department was awarded a Law Enforcement Mental Health and Wellness Act grant,
which funded wellness checks for each officer for two years. Wellness checks entail an annual
confidential visit with a licensed psychologist experienced with first responders and occupational
resilience. Wellness checks focus on identifying and coping with the stressors involved in law
enforcement work. Wellness checks began in early 2025, and the grant funding will continue to pay for
the wellness checks through calendar year 2026. This improvement package is intended to continue
the funding of wellness checks through FY27 so that the program can continue once the grant funds
are depleted. City Council Goal: Healthy and Safe. Top Priority: Police Department Full Staffing.

This improvement package was submitted as recurring but is being recommended as non-recurring.
This improvement package request is for recurring training funds to allow up to 25 officers per year
($1,600 per officer, $40,000 per year) to use towards professional development training, with priority
given to those who have less than 4 years on the department to aid in retention. Employees have
stated they do not feel engaged and have limited opportunities. The bulk of non-academy-related police
training funds is spent on specialty training for those who have transferred to specialty units or who
have been appointed to other specialty positions. This is a limited number of officers, and it often leaves
the rest of the Patrol division without an opportunity to attend professional development training.
Studies show that employees will be retained if they feel connected early in their careers. City Council

This improvement package was submitted as recurring but is being recommended as non-recurring.
This improvement package is to request funding for a Non-Profit Special Event Volunteers. We have
found that over the last few years, special event organizers have struggled to recruit enough volunteers
to safely run their events. This trend is especially prevalent with parades, which require a minimum of
10 total volunteers working the parade to staff all of the recommended safety positions. In addition to
parades, volunteers have been used in the past to monitor street closure points at large special events
such as the July 3rd fireworks and air show. These volunteers make sure their assigned street closure
point remains secure and provide direction to motorists. At the direction of the City Manager's Office,
the Police Department began to explore offering a financial incentive to ensure there are enough
volunteers to assist with the safety/security of special events and parades. The Police Department met
several times with the Dubuque Jaycees, who indicated they would be willing to try this concept on a
limited basis in CY2026. The Jaycees were approached by the police department because of their
experience in working special events in the community. The Police and the Jaycees identified a
reasonable fee/donation of$25 per hour per member for each event. Council Goal Priority: Healthy and
Safe.

This improvement package request is for two training cars. The department conducts annual state-
mandated vehicle operation training that involves pursuit driving and high-speed maneuvers. It is not
ideal to use regular patrol vehicles for training due to the effects of hard use and the lack of ability to
outfit them with training aids. Two squad cars that are due to be rotated out of the department's fleet
could be repurposed, which would mean a loss of revenue from the resale of said vehicles estimated at
$20,000. Additionally, these training vehicles would be outfitted with a protective surrounding safety
bumper/guard. This guard is necessary to practice Pursuit Intervention Techniques without causing
disabling damage to vehicles. The cost of two of these guards is estimated at $19,690. This would be a
one-time cost of$39,690. Council Goal Priority: Healthy and Safe.

This Improvement package is to request a 0.25 FTE Crime Analyst Intern Position. An opportunity has
been presented, in which data analytics and crime analytics is becoming a growing field. Several
instructors with various colleges in the area have reached out inquiring about internships in criminal
analytics.
In early 2025, the Police Department created a full-time Crime Analyst position to improve data-driven
decision-making. After approximately one year, it has become clear that the volume and complexity of
data analytics tasks require additional support. In August 2024, we explored a paid internship for a
Crime/Data Analyst. This came at the request of a local college, in which a student was interested in
crime analytics. This intern was the precipitating factor for creating the current Crime Analyst position.
The intern assisted with quarterly reports and provided analytics around crime in a specific
neighborhood. Essentially, the sky is the limit for what a crime analyst can do for the department. As
the Crime Analyst position has grown, a growing need has been identified. An intern can fill this need.
The proposed Criminal Analyst Intern will work directly with the Crime Analyst and assist the Crime
Analyst in:
• Building dashboards and reports.
• Creating data sets.
• Supporting evidence-based policing
• Work on specific analytics projects as needed.
This change aligns with the department's strategic goal of leveraging data to enhance public safety
while maintaining fiscal responsibility. Council Goal Priority: Healthy and Safe.

Significant Line Items
Employee Expense
1. FY 2027 employee expense reflects a 3% wage package increase for non-bargaining employees
not employed in a command staff role, 5.6% wage package increase for non-bargaining command
staff (Lieutenant, Captain, Assistant Chief, and Chief), and 1.75% - 5.6% wage package increase
for non-command bargaining employees represented by the Dubuque Police Protective Association
which is in place from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2029.
2. In December of 2023, wage compression was identified among command staff in Police and Fire
departments. To avoid this issue, command staff was provided a higher wage increase in fiscal year
2024 and subsequent years. To prevent wage compression in fiscal year 2027, the City Manager is
recommending a 5.6% wage increase for all Fire & Police command staff.
3. The lowa Public Employee Retirement System (IPERS) City contribution of 9.44% is unchanged
from FY 2026. The employee contribution of 6.29% is also unchanged from FY 2026.
4. Fire and Police Retirement rates in FY 2027 decreased from 22.56% to 21.86% or a decrease of
3.11%; a savings of$80,480. The history of the change in rates is as follows:

5. The City portion of health insurance expense is increased from $1,119 in FY 2026 to $1,175 in FY
2027 per month, per contract, which results in an annual cost increased by $80,185 or 5%. The
increase per contract is due to the city contribution increasing 5.00% because of increasing health
costs.
6. Police Injuries increased from $37,215 in FY 2026 to $46,329 in FY 2027 based on a ten-year
average of actual expenditures.
7. Overtime is decreased from $128,757 in FY 2026 to $125,986 in FY 2027. The FY 2025 actual was
$642,098, which was high due to having 14 Police Officer positions vacant. Having vacancies
requires existing staff to work overtime. This increase in overtime expenses is covered by the
savings that exist from having vacant Police Officer positions.
6 Page 837 of 1207
8. Reimbursable Overtime is unchanged from $0 in FY 2026 to $0 in FY 2027. FY 2025 actual was

establishing a problem-solving philosophy by addressing the causes of crime and encourages long-
term innovative problem solving, and improving law enforcement-community partnerships with better
quality communication. This activity enhances police services by shifting the focus of police work from
responding to individual incidents to addressing problems identified by the community and emphasizing
the use of problem-solving approaches to supplement traditional law enforcement. This is demonstrated
by involvement with the City of Dubuque Housing Department, School Resource Officers, Public
