The proceedings of which will be used to fund the planning and design portion of the Roosevelt Water Tower project. A letter from attorney Kristin Cooper detailing information on the public hearing is enclosed. DISCUSSION The City of Dubuque is pursuing an engineered solution to resolve low pressures experienced in the City of Dubuque's second pressure zone in the City's water distribution system. The second pressure zone or Zone 2 encompasses the area in and around Roosevelt Street and Peru Road includes the Sky Blue Estates subdivision, Alpine Park development and Eagle Valley Subdivision. Zone 2 pressures are provided by the existing Eagle Point Park elevated water tower. It has a volume of 500,000 gallons with an overflow elevation of 935 feet above mean sea level. Water is pumped into the second pressure zone from two locations, the water treatment plant and the Stafford Street booster station. Over a twenty-year period, the area has experienced residential development growth, however the growth has started to surpass the ability of the available Zone 2 water storage and the distribution system to provide suitable pressures and volume. The elevation of the overflow at the Eagle Point Park tower has been identified as limiting the available water pressure in the zone; most notably the pressure at the highest point along Roosevelt Road. The City has looked at several solutions including a booster pump station and a replacement elevated tower. Following careful consideration, the City is in favor of installing an elevated water tower at a higher elevation to replace the existing Eagle Point Water tower. The proposed improvements would include: the installation of a composite style water tower with an estimated size, prior to a hydraulic analysis, of 1.25 million gallons, along with water main improvements, pressure reducing stations, water treatment plant pump replacements, abandonment of Stafford Street pump station and the demolition of Eagle Point Park water tower. The City currently has six pressure zones, 1 through 6. A new elevated water tower in Zone 2 would also enable the City to evaluate the possibility of reducing the number of pressure zones thereby increasing available storage, improving water quality, and increase the distribution system's flow characteristics for fire suppression. Zone 2 could be connected to Olympic Heights subdivision (Zone 5) and the Olympic Heights booster pump station could be taken out of service reducing energy, operation and maintenance costs, and a pressure zone. Following a hydraulic analysis, if Zones 2 and 3 were to be combined, water fed from the north via Zone 2 with a 1 .25-million-gallon tank would improve flow rates and reliability into Zone 3. The overflow elevation of the proposed Zone 2 elevated water tower located on Roosevelt Street, would be evaluated to match the overflow elevations of Zone 3 storage facilities, including the elevated 0.75MG College Street tower, with the possibility of eliminating Zone 3, thereby reducing the City's pressure zone down to four from six. ACTION TO BE TAKEN I respectfully recommend the adoption of the enclosed resolution fixing the date of August 21st for a public hearing on the proposition of selling not to exceed $475,000 in Water Planning & Design SRF Loan Notes for the Roosevelt Water Tower project.

We understand the City has qualified for a 0% interim planning and design loan from the Iowa Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Program (the "DWSRF Program") to be applied to the engineering and planning for certain projects. Following design of your project, additional hearing(s) will be necessary to obtain borrowing authority over and above the amount covered herein. The hearing called by the enclosed proceedings will permit the City to take advantage of the 0% interim loan program, which may be rolled into the future long-term SRF loan. As you may know, the borrowing of loan funds by the City through the SRF program involves the same procedures applicable to the issuance and sale of municipal bonds generally. Although the Iowa Finance Authority (the "Authority") has agreed to make the City a loan under the terms of a Loan and Disbursement Agreement, that loan will be secured and evidenced by a Water Revenue Capital Loan Note that will be issued to the Authority at the time the loan is closed. Notice of this meeting must be published at least once in a legal newspaper, printed wholly in the English language, published at least once weekly, and having general circulation in the City.
