SUBJECT: Proceedings for Public Hearing on the Issuance of Not to Exceed
$10,200,000 Water Utility Revenue Capital Loan Notes (State Revolving
Loan Fund Program)
DATE: June 12, 2017
Finance Director Jean Nachtman recommends City Council approval of the suggested
proceeding for a public hearing on the issuance of not to exceed $10,200,000 Water
Utility Revenue Capital Loan Notes.
In December 2016, the City of Dubuque purchased the Vernon Water Tower, Vernon
water system and the Barrington Lakes water system from Central Iowa Water
Association (CIWA). The intent of the City's purchase was to assist these communities
in becoming compliant with Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) standards
and provide the necessary back-up water supply and fire suppression by connecting
them directly to the City's water supply. The City is honoring the agreement with CIWA
to meet the IDNR water permits for these two systems in preparing plans to construct a
water supply connection from the City of Dubuque's water system to Vernon and
Barrington Lakes. The IDNR water permit required CIWA to provide a back-up or
secondary water supply no later than December 31, 2016, however following the City's
recent acquisition, the IDNR has granted a one year time extension to provide the
adequate back up. The IDNR requires the two water systems be provided with a back-
up or secondary water supply no later than December 31, 2017. The intent of the City
is to provide the primary water supply, which has multiple back-up sources, and
abandon the current primary water supply wells located in Vernon and Barrington
Lakes.
The loan funds will be used for the purpose of paying costs of acquisition, construction,
reconstruction, extending, remodeling, improving, repairing and equipping all or part of
the Municipal Water Utility, including those costs associated with the Westside water
system purchase and construction project.
The State Revolving Capital Loan Notes will carry an annual 1 .75% interest rate for 20
years, with an annual servicing fee of 0.25% of the outstanding principal balance. There
is also a onetime 0.5% upfront loan origination fee.
The proceedings have been prepared to show as a first step the receipt of any oral or
written objections from any resident or property owner to the proposed action of the
Council to authorize the form of Loan and Disbursement Agreement and issue the
Notes to the Iowa Finance Authority. A summary of objections received or made, if any,
should be attached to the proceedings. After all objections have been received and
considered, if the City Council decides to enter into the Agreement and issue the Notes,
a form of resolution follows that should be introduced and adopted, entitled "Resolution
Instituting Proceedings to Take Additional Action."
In the event the City Council decides to abandon the proposal, then the form of
resolution included in said proceedings should not be adopted. In this event, a motion
merely be adopted to the effect that such proposal is abandoned.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval. J

DATE: June 13, 2017
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide suggested proceeding for a public
hearing on the issuance of not to exceed $10,200,000 Water Utility Revenue Capital
Loan Notes. A letter from attorney Kristen Billingsley Cooper detailing information on the
public hearing is enclosed.
DISCUSSION
In December 2016, the City of Dubuque purchased the Vernon Water Tower, Vernon
water system and the Barrington Lakes water system from Central Iowa Water
Association (CIWA). The intent of the City's purchase was to assist these communities
in becoming compliant with Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) standards
and provide the necessary back-up water supply and fire suppression by connecting
them directly to the City's water supply. The City is honoring the agreement with CIWA
to meet the IDNR water permits for these two systems in preparing plans to construct a
water supply connection from the City of Dubuque's water system to Vernon and
Barrington Lakes. The IDNR water permit required CIWA to provide a back-up or
secondary water supply no later than December 31, 2016, however following the City's
recent acquisition, the IDNR has granted a one year time extension to provide the
adequate back up. The IDNR requires the two water systems be provided with a back-
up or secondary water supply no later than December 31, 2017. The intent of the City is
to provide the primary water supply, which has multiple back-up sources, and abandon
the current primary water supply wells located in Vernon and Barrington Lakes.
For the City to meet the strict IDNR water operating permit connection completion date,
it was necessary for the City to seek financial and engineering assistance. The City
turned to the IDNR State Revolving Fund (Iowa SRF) program and hired IIW, P.C.
consulting engineers to prepare loan documents to secure funding for the project. On
December 1, 2016, IIW, P.C. submitted the necessary preliminary engineering report,
intended use plan application, archeological and environmental assessment, and the
self- assessment Iowa Water System Viability documents to request the necessary
funding. IIW, P.C. was further retained to complete the final design plans, specification,
and contract documents for construction. They have completed the design and have
prepared the plans for bidding and IDNR construction permit submittal for the English
Mill Road pump station and water main extending from the pump station to North
Cascade Road and Highway 20; the connection location for the Vernon water system to
City of Dubuque water. A final section of water main and pressure station design to
serve Barrington Lakes, is currently in the process of final design. IIW, P.C. working with
City of Dubuque's water department staff have prepared construction plans providing for
the connection of the City's water supply to the Vernon area, and are in the final stages
of design for the Barrington Lakes water system connection. The project is scheduled to
be bid in three separate contracts to accommodate the December 31 , 2017 schedule.
The contracts are grouped to minimize possible delays and maximize parts and material
delivery times to meet the completion schedule.
Contract A: English Mill Road & North Cascade Road Water Main Extension
The extent of the work consists of the construction of a 12-inch water main from near
the intersection of Stone Valley Drive and English Mill Road to the south to North
Cascade Road and along North Cascade Road to the west to near the intersection of
Highway 20. A water main extension into Barrington Lakes Subdivision at Barrington
Drive along with a pressure control station will be included in the project. The project
consists of approximately 11 ,000 LF of 12-inch water main, including approximately 875
LF of 12-inch DIP and 10,125 LF of 12-inch PVC. Portions of the PVC water main will
require directional drilling. The project also includes various water main appurtenances
including: fittings, resilient seat gate valves, fire hydrants, mechanical and push-on joint
restraints, etc. Rock is anticipated to be encountered for the water main installation
along portions of the proposed water main alignment. Erosion control including silt
fence, rolled erosion control product, topsoil and removal and replacement, and
seeding. Traffic control is included in the project to maintain a safe work site for both the
Contractor and the public. Coordination with another project in the same general area
associated with the project will be required.
Contract B: English Mill Pumping Facility
The extent of the work involved in the City of Dubuque, Iowa Water System
Improvements 2017 Contract B: English Mill Road Pumping Facility project consists of
the construction of a new pumping facility create a new pressure zone (Zone 7) in the
City of Dubuque's distribution system. The project consists of various components, the
major items being: the construction of a new 40'x50' block and brick building, with two
125 HP booster pumps, DIP process piping, electrical, plumbing and mechanical
components, standby power and site work (including PCC parking and driveway, site
grading, fencing, seeding and 12 inch DIP water main installation including valves and
fittings). Coordination with another project in the same general area associated with the
project will be required.
Contract C: Highway 20 Water Main Extension is in the process of final design and will
be bid later, but still complying with the IDNR December 31 , 2017 completion date.
The loan funds will be used for the purpose of paying costs of acquisition, construction,
reconstruction, extending, remodeling, improving, repairing and equipping all or part of
the Municipal Water Utility, including those costs associated with the Westside water
system purchase and construction project.
The State Revolving Capital Loan Notes will carry an annual 1 .75% interest rate for 20
years, with an annual servicing fee of 0.25% of the outstanding principal balance. There
is also a onetime 0.5% upfront loan origination fee.
The proceedings have been prepared to show as a first step the receipt of any oral or
written objections from any resident or property owner to the proposed action of the
Council to authorize the form of Loan and Disbursement Agreement and issue the
Notes to the Iowa Finance Authority. A summary of objections received or made, if any,
should be attached to the proceedings. After all objections have been received and
considered if the Council decides to enter into the Agreement and issue the Notes, a
form of resolution follows that should be introduced and adopted, entitled "Resolution

In the event the Council decides to abandon the proposal, then the form of resolution
included in said proceedings should not be adopted. In this event, a motion merely be
adopted to the effect that such proposal is abandoned.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN

RE; Not To Exceed $10,200,000 Water Revenue Capital Loan Notes, Series
2017 (Iowa Drinking Water Facilities Financing Program) (CIWA/Water
Main Extension)
Dear Jenny:
The public hearing proceedings are prepared to show as a first step the receipt of any oral
or written objections from any resident or property owner to the proposed action of the City
Council to authorize the form of Loan and Disbursement Agreement and issue the Notes to the
Authority. A summary of objections received or made, if any, should be attached to the
proceedings. After all objections have been received and considered if the City Council decides
to enter into the Agreement and issue the Note, a form of resolution follows that should be
introduced and adopted, entitled "Resolution Instituting Proceedings to Take Additional Action."
Section 384.83 of the Code of Iowa provides that any resident or property owner of the
City may appeal the decision to take additional action to the District Court of a county in which
any part of the City is located, within 15 days after such additional action is taken, but that the
additional action is final and conclusive unless the court finds that the City Council exceeded its
authority.
In the event an appeal is filed by any resident or property owner, please see that we are
notified immediately; and, as soon as available, a copy of the notice of appeal should be
furnished to our office for review.
In the event the City Council decides to abandon the proposal then the form of resolution
included in said proceedings should not be adopted. We would suggest that, in this event, a
motion merely be adopted to the effect that such proposal is abandoned.

The Resolution taking additional action also acknowledges and approves of the terms of
the DWSRF Program, a general description of which is enclosed for your review. As you may
know, the terms of the loan being offered to the City are established primarily by reference to
two external sources: the Authority's administrative rules governing the DWSRF Program and, to
a lesser extent, by the terms of the bonds issued by the Authority to fund the City's loan. These
loan terms are not negotiable by individual borrowers, and the City's decision to participate in
the DWSRF Program effectively commits it to accept a loan on the stated terms.
Also enclosed is an extra copy of the proceedings to be filled in as the original and
certified back to this office. If you have any questions pertaining to the proceedings enclosed or
this letter, please do not hesitate to either write or call.
Very truly yours,
