PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Fiscal Year 2005 budget included$34,000 to do an engineering study to determine what needs to be done to bring the water system in all parks (with water)
up to code. The Fiscal Year 2006 project began the funding of that renovation work. Flora Park is complete, Murphy Park is next and then Eagle Point Park.
JUSTIFICATION
The plumbing code now requires all meters and Reduced Pressure Zone devices(backflow preventer) to be above ground. Most of our meters are in pits and
there are no RPZ's in most locations. Some parks may need the entire water system renovated and structures built to house the meter and backflow prevention
valve. An engineer will be hired to help us determine how best to address this situation in each park and to provide cost estimates. Repairs are becoming very
costly for Murphy and Eagle Point. Repairs cost $3,000 and $5,000 just for main breaks, no upgrades. Another CIP has been recommended for smaller parks to
add water fountains that will meet code requirements by hooking them directly into the water system.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project implements the Comprehensive Plan's Infrastructure Goal One: To provide, maintain and improve a cost-effective, functional and self-supporting water
utility system; objective 1.3) Support a safe water supply that meets all local, state, and federal water quality standards and Recreation Goal One: To provide a

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project provides for replacing security lights in a number of different parks.
JUSTIFICATION
The Safe Community Initiative, a 2013-2015 top priority of the City Council goal list is integral to safe lighting in parks. The security lights in many parks are getting
very old and need to be replaced. This project will be a continuous project until lighting is replaced in all parks. Safety of parks' patrons will increase with better
lighting. New efficient fixtures could potentially save between $3,000 and $5,000 in operating costs per year. The type of replacement fixtures effects the amount
of cost savings per year. New lighting is additionally more sustainable and energy efficient. Dark sky technology will be used where possible.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Fiscal Year 2017 to 2020 projects only provide matching funds for tree grants. Budget for FY 2021 and beyond would provide for replacing trees as specified
in the Street Tree Policy updated in FY15 and after Emerald Ash Borer, a 2014-2016 top priority of the City Council goals list identifies the issue and one part of the
plan is tree planting.
JUSTIFICATION
The Street Tree Policy addresses size of planting lawns and type of trees allowed. Studies have shown that trees increase the value of property because of the
improved appearance they create. A street lined with trees beautifies the neighborhood and community and conveys a sense of community pride. The 2011 Urban
Forestry Study underlined the importance of tree planting in streets, parks and neighborhoods. Tree bids typically run$300.00 each. With Emerald Ash Borer being
discovered in August of 2015, it will become increasingly important to replace street trees. Twenty-four (24) percent of the 5,200 street trees are Ash trees. The
Forestry Activity is currently removing an average of 300 to 400 trees per year over the last five years and definitely increases the need for tree replacements.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project implements the Comprehensive Plan's Environmental Quality Goal Eight: To promote community clean-up and beautification efforts through public

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The City has 52 portable (handheld), 115 mobile (vehicle mounted) and 7 base (office desk) radios that are on the Public Safety 800 MHz trunked radio system.
These radios provide communication and interoperability between City departments and agencies. This radio communication system is approaching the end of its
service life and will need replacement in the next 3 years. Police and Fire Departments have started the transition for their radios. The radios used by all other
City departments will need to be replaced or software upgrades. This will require replacement of 159 radios city wide. 15 portable radios are compatible with the
new system and will require software upgrades only. This will provide for a total of 174 radios on the system. This CIP addresses the needs of the Leisure
Services Department.
JUSTIFICATION
This project will provide replacement or upgrades for the radios used by the Leisure Services Department. This will continue to provide communication capabilities
between and among City departments for every day business and large scale events or incidents. The amount includes replacement of 8 portable radios
($22,320), 26 mobile units ($97,370), 2 base units ($7,990) and 6 portable radio upgrades ($600).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project provides for the beginning of multi-year program to construct retaining walls on park property where the terrain is very difficult to mow and maintain.
JUSTIFICATION
Many areas of our parks are difficult to maintain and mow because the terrain is steep and mowers cannot be used. Steep areas create a safety hazard for park
employees. As a result, these areas look bad because grass gets long and the surface is uneven. Retaining walls will address this issue by creating a relatively
flat surface at the top and bottom of the wall. Not only will maintenance effort be reduced, the appearance of the area will be enhanced.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project implements the Comprehensive Plan's Land Use and Urban Design Goal Nine: To promote principles of good urban design as part of
all development; objective 9.1) Support enhancement of the aesthetics of new and existing development--design, landscaping, parking, signage --with special

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project provides for a system-wide site access audit for handicap accessibility for parks and recreation facilities.
JUSTIFICATION
ADA has wide sweeping implications in all operations of Leisure Services. A system-wide audit would provide written site reports, digital images, a summary and
program access requirements. Numerous improvement areas exist and need to be identified so the correct methods and resources can be used to make Leisure
Services assets and programs available to all. Policies regarding service animals, power assisted mobility devices and more need to be developed. Both an
access audit and a transition plan are required components of an ADA plan. There are also historic considerations which need to be assessed at both Eagle Point
Park and Murphy Park. This audit would also apply to the City Council 2013-2015 Management Agenda, under partnering for a better Dubuque goal (direction for
handicapped accessibility for parks).
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project implements the Comprehensive Plan's Infrastructure Goal Ten: To provide, maintain, and improve City-owned buildings, structures, facilities, and

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project provides for replacing trash cans and adding recycling at Eagle Point, Flora and Murphy Parks.
JUSTIFICATION
The trash cans at Eagle Point Park are currently 20-gallon metal cans and some larger plastic cans strategically placed in locations. Similar cans are used at
Murphy and Flora Parks. A new more efficient system needs to be created in these parks. The plan would include larger trash receptacles placed in fewer
locations. The plan would also include cans that would be used for recycling. It would allow staff to collect trash and recycled items more efficiently. It would also
improve the appearance of the park by not having as many receptacles. Fiscal Year 2021 would replace the receptacles at Eagle Point Park. The second year
would be Flora Park and the third year would be Murphy Park.

Improvement Package Summary
1 of 11
This decision package provides for a seasonal employee (0.50 FTE or 1,040 hours annually) to assist in the
day-to-day, seven day a week care of the Upper Bee Branch as it comes online in 2017. The upper Bee
Branch will require daily trash pickup and monitoring of all maintenance needs including flower baskets,
flower beds, trails, lighting, flags and more. This package is for 20 hours per week for 7 days a week year
round. The improvements of the Upper Bee Branch are very important to storm water control as well as
quality of life. Care must be taken to maintain this new asset for all citizens and tourists of our community.
The landscape contractor is expected to maintain the corridor for 2 growing seasons after completion of the
project. This request is for maintenance duties outside of that contract. Currently, there is one full-time
Natural Resources and Sustainable Practices Specialist that does all natural areas, one full-time seasonal
Laborer and a half-time seasonal laborer that also work on the Lower Bee Branch.

Currently the Park Division has one wide area mower. An additional large area mower would decrease
mowing times of mobile crews and eliminate the replacement cycle of two front deck mowers in about three
years. These mowers cost about $30,000 each and have 5 foot wide mowing decks. These two mowers
could be eliminated from the 5 year equipment replacement schedule. It would also allow moving one
seasonal laborer normally on the mow crew to assist in other areas with maintenance duties.

This decision package provides for a self-propelled walk behind two wheeled tractor with sickle bar, flail
mower and brush hog attachments. With the continued addition of native and prairie plants, mowing is
required to promote healthy growth. Many areas including the lower Bee Branch, 32nd Street detention
basin, and Carter Road detention basin require this type of attention. This piece of equipment would be
used to mow steep slopes and areas not safely maintainable by a larger piece of equipment. It would also
be used to cut pockets of open space for fishing around Bergfeld pond.

In the fall and spring many ornamental grasses and perennial plants are also cut down to promote the
health of the plants. These areas include the Port of Dubuque, Locust Street Connector, Grandview Avenue
Boulevard and many other locations throughout the City.
This machine with attachments will increase the efficiency and productivity of the Park Division and can be
shared across other City Departments such as the Water Department and Public Works Department.

This decision package provides for a Utility Vehicle (Gator type) for the Port of Dubuque. The utility vehicle
would allow for easy access to the River walk and other areas of the Port when working on planters and
landscaped beds. Currently a pickup truck is used to perform all the maintenance duties in the Port and
pedestrian access is frequently blocked to public access area. The utility vehicle would also be used on the
Locust Street Connector where access to plants and landscaped beds is very dangerous with a full size
vehicle. The utility vehicle could potentially be used for snow removal duties in the Port serving an all
season purpose. It would also be used by the Port of Dubuque Marina staff during special events or other

This decision package provides for an air spade for the Forestry activity. An air spade directs compressed
air into the soil around the tree exposing buried tree roots without harming the tree or buried utilities. Once
exposed, stem girdling roots and other things like wire baskets burlap and twine can be removed decreasing
the mortality rate of the tree. This is an important tool to add to the arsenal regarding declining trees. There
are numerous City owned trees that have been planted too deep or still have the wire baskets around them.
This tool would allow the forestry staff to safely remove stem girdling roots, expose the tree collar and
remove any excess burlap or wire baskets around the tree root ball prolonging the life of the tree.

Outcome #1: Establish Eagle Point Park as a National Historic Landmark.
What does this mean to citizens?
Eagle Point Park is the premier park for the Park ;
Division and a source of pride for the Dubuque
community. Having the park on the National Historic y
register creates numerous possibilities. It continues to ° , _
draw people from all over the country to come and rr ° *TV'„

to protect and preserve the park for future is
generations. A National Historic Landmark
designation also allows for federal funds to upkeep , 4,
and maintain the park reducing costs to the citizens.
Goal: Financially Responsible & High Performance Organization/1
Outcome #2: Reduce maintenance costs by converting various park areas of turf to natural
and native areas.
The conversion of certain areas of park space provides for more natural park settings. Native and
natural areas promote a healthy environment while decreasing maintenance costs of those areas.
These types of natural and native areas also provide for a diverse ecosystem for Monarchs and
other species of birds. The Park Division currently maintains 42 acres of natural area.

What does this mean to citizens?
Trees provide numerous benefits to the environment as well as to the community and homeowner.
Trees combat climate change, improve air quality, and reduce storm water runoff. Property values
are typically higher with properties that have trees and landscaping versus those that do not. Trees
also create a more natural environment in developed areas. Educating homeowners and
businesses about the benefits of trees allows for a healthy environment since trees provide fuel,
shelter, food, clean water, recreation opportunities, and homes for birds, insects and other animals.
