Van Milligen, City Manager SUBJECT: Voluntary Annexation Request— Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency (applicant and property owner) DATE: May 26, 2026 Planning Services Director Wally Wernimont is recommending City Council approval of a Voluntary Annexation Request from the Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency (applicant and property owner). It is recommended that the City Council approve the annexation request for the reasons described in the enclosed staff report, and summarized below: ■ It is 100% voluntary and in compliance with lowa Code, ■ It is consistent with the Imagine Dubuque Comprehensive Plan, ■ It is consistent with lowa Smart Planning Principles, ■ the City of Dubuque has the capacity to provide substantial municipal services to the annexation territory, ■ the future growth and development of the City of Dubuque, lowa makes it desirable that the annexation territory be made part of the City of Dubuque, lowa; and ■ the annexation is in the public interest. The City received a written application from the Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency (applicant and property owner) for voluntary annexation of approximately 126.69 acres. The annexation territory is comprised of agricultural and open land just south of the landfill in Dubuque County. The submitted annexation request is to allow the development of the land for use as part of the sanitary landfill. DMASWA's strategic plan estimates that with this added area, the landfill will have capacity for 190+ years. DMASWA will go through the process of obtaining permits for future landfill cell expansion that would use this land. By lowa Code, the annexation will be subject to final approval of the State of lowa's City Development Board because the property is considered to be in an urbanized area since it is within two miles of the City of Peosta. Page 743 of 1000 I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval. v Mic ael C.

The City's Future Land Use Map identifies the subject site as Heavy Industrial, the same as the rest of the landfill. The proposed project would relate to the following recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan: Page 751 of 1000 Annexation Staff Report — Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency Page 3 - Evaluate whether local solid waste can begin to incorporate a compost component, similar to Des Moines, that would provide a source of compost for local gardens & production. - Explore incentives for backyard and curbside composting that reduce the proportion of landfilled food. - Explore a community-wide Zero Waste Policy that creates a closed-circuit economy of low-impact or reduced consumption lifestyle and marketplace for post-consumer products. Future Land Use Map — The property is identified primarily as Industrial on the Future Land Use Map. Portions of it are identified as Single-Family Residential and Public Open Space along the creek. Impact of Request on: Utilities: • City water is available on the north side of the DMASWA property. • City sanitary sewer is present on several parts of the DMASWA property. • Storm water along Airborne Road is managed by several storm sewer drains. • Natural gas would be provided by a private utility. Traffic Patterns/Counts: Airborne Road had a daily traffic count of 101 vehicles in 2020. Seippel Road had a daily traffic count of 4,590 vehicles in 2021. Public Services: City of Dubuque Fire and Police Departments will serve the subject site. Environment: DMASWA manages solid waste in an environmentally friendly manner, with an engineered base which will be combined with a collection system for the leachate (the liquid generated as waste breaks down) to protect and prevent the contamination of the soil and groundwater. To improve air quality, the DMASWA landfill also has a gas collection system to capture methane (a highly potent greenhouse gas) produced as the waste in the landfill breaks down which is converted to Renewable Natural Gas. There are about 13 years' capacity left within the current boundaries of the landfill. Without access to a local solid waste disposal facility, all waste generated in the area would have to be hauled by truck to another location, increasing the waste's greenhouse gas impact. Adiacent Properties: The subject property is on the edge of the Dubuque city limits, so the properties to the east and south are in unincorporated Dubuque County. Those properties are a mix of forest land, farmland, single-family residences, and highway. The property to the west is zoned AG. The property to the north is part of the DMASWA landfill and is also zoned Hlc. CIP Investments: None. Page 752 of 1000 Annexation Staff Report — Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency Page 4 Staff Analysis: The Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency (property owner and applicant) is requesting annexation of the subject property. Once the property is annexed and rezoned, the property owner intends to develop land to be used as part of the sanitary landfill. To facilitate that development and to ensure the Dubuque area continues to have landfill capacity, the applicant is seeking annexation. DMASWA's strategic plan estimates that with this added area, the landfill will have capacity for 190+ years. DMASWA will go through the process of obtaining permits for future landfill cell expansion that would use this land. The subject property is currently in unincorporated Dubuque County with a mix of agricultural, conservancy, and residential zoning. The City of Dubuque is working to annex the property concurrent with this rezoning. The Comprehensive Plan goals promote solid waste reduction, composting, and pollution mitigation. With this land incorporated as part of the landfill, DMASWA estimates there would be capacity for 193 years of continued use here, and without it, there is capacity for 13 years of use. The City's Future Land Use Map identifies the subject site as Heavy Industrial, the same as the rest of the landfill. Adequate city utilities are available nearby and could be extended to the subject property. The City's Development Review Team would review changes to the site. Prior to any development taking place on the property, DMASWA would need to obtain permits from the lowa Department of Natural Resources, Army Corps of Engineers, and Federal Emergency Management Agency. Planning staff recommends City Council approval of the voluntary annexation request. , Ii �� % � � � � � � Prepared by: ��" �(�C��- Reviewed: Date: 5/21/26 Page 753 of 1000 7'I IE CI7'Y C�F City of Dubuque Planning Services Department DT T� T Dubuque,IA 52001-4845 U � Phone: 563-589-4210 Fax: 563-589-4221 MCfStPI'�71ECf 011 f�IP!�/IISSIS51��71 planninq cityofdubuque.orq � " � • • Zonin4 Advisory Zoninu Board of Development Services Historic Preservation Commission Commission Adiustment � Annexation ❑ Demolition Review ❑ Amended PUD ❑ Conditional Use Permit ❑ Limited Setback Waiver ❑ Historic Revolving Loan ❑ Rezoning/PUD/ID ❑ Special Exception ❑ Site Plan Simple ❑ Certificate of Economic Non-Viability ❑ Text Amendment ❑ Variance ❑ Site Plan Minor ❑ Design Review Certificate of ❑ Simple Subdivision ❑ Appeal ❑ Site Plan Major Appropriateness ❑ Preliminary Plat ❑ Simple Subdivision ❑ Advisory Design Review (Public ❑ Major Final Plat ❑ Temporary Use Permit Projects) ❑ Minor Final Plat ❑ Port of Dubuque/ ❑ Historic Designation ❑ Waiver from Site Chaplain Schmitt Island Design Standards Design Review . , . ., . . . . - . . - . , -, .
