Applicant: Frank Pothoff
Location: 10956 Whitetop Road, Dubuque County
Description: To approve the Final Plat of Swiss Valley Estates
Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
Dubuque
2007-2012.2013
2017*2019
August 11, 2026
The City of Dubuque Zoning Advisory Commission has reviewed the above -cited request.
The application, staff report and related materials are attached for your review.
Discussion
Frank Pothoff, 17344 Melody Circle, spoke on behalf of his application. He said they are
selling the house to their daughter for their granddaughter to live in, and their daughter
intends to build a house next door.
Staff detailed the staff report, noting the submitted final plat, noting that it's a minor
subdivision. Staff explained that two lots are going to be reconfigured to three lots. Staff
noted that it's in the county but within the city's two-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction. Staff
displayed the plat and described the lots, noting that Lots 1 and 2 do not have street
frontage but do have a 66' access and utility easement, so a waiver of the street frontage
standard is being requested. Staff stated Lot 3 is the balance of the remaining land and
is in conformance with the city's subdivision regulations.
There were no public comments.
The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request and found it appropriate.
Recommendation
By a vote of 5 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council
approve the Final Plat of Swiss Valley Estates as submitted, subject to waiving the street
frontage requirement will for Lot 1 and Lot 2.
A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request.

TO: Zoning Advisory Commission
FROM: Travis Schrobilgen, Assistant Planner
DATE: July 29, 2026
SUBJECT: Final Plat of Swiss Valley Estates — 10956 Whitetop Road
INTRODUCTION
Dubuque
AA -America Cll)
2007-2012.2013
2017*2019
The Final Plat of Swiss Valley Estates is located southeast of the Whitetop Road and
North Cascade Road intersection. The property is currently made up of three parcels
including a full 40-acre lot and the balance of two others. The proposed subdivision is in
Dubuque County and within the 2-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction of the city. The property
is currently occupied by row crops and timber with a farmstead at the center.
Pursuant to the Unified Development Code (UDC), the proposed subdivision is classified
as a Minor Subdivision' and requires a waiver of bulk regulations. All minor subdivisions
are reviewed by the Zoning Advisory Commission and City Council for approval.
DISCUSSION
The Final Plat of Swiss Valley Estates would create two 1-2-acre lots and consolidate the
remainder into a third lot. The following is a description of the proposed lots:
Lot 1 is a 1.224-acre lot and will have access via a shared access and utility
easement along the existing gravel lane. The lot does not have frontage on a public
or private street but is otherwise in compliance with the UDC.
Lot 2 is a 1.878-acre lot and will have access via a shared access and utility
easement along the existing gravel lane. The lot does not have frontage on a public
or private street but is otherwise in compliance with the UDC.
■ Lot 3 is the consolidated balance of the three lots and would total 72.938 acres.
The lot is in substantial conformance with the UDC.
Lots 1 and 2 would both have access and utilities via a 66' wide easement, however
neither lot has frontage on a platted public or private street, and they therefore require a
waiver of the minimum street frontage requirement. The proposed plat is otherwise in
substantial conformance with the UDC.
The Zoning Advisory Commission shall review the plat to determine whether the plat is in
substantial conformance with the Unified Development Code.
UDC Chapter 16-11-6 defines a Minor Subdivision as "Any subdivision or consolidation of property in
which no new streets, public or private, are proposed and which does not require the construction of any
public improvements, and which creates three (3) or more lots."
