SUBJECT: Consultant Recommendation for Central Avenue Corridor Streetscape
Master Plan
DATE: June 25, 2018
INTRODUCTION
This memo transmits for City Council approval, the consultant recommendation for the Central
Avenue Corridor Streetscape Master Plan. This project will help to implement a Top Priority of
the City Council's 2017-2019 Policy Agenda -- Central Avenue Revitalization: Streetscape and
Business Development. The proposal of the recommended consultant is enclosed.
DISCUSSION
The creation of the Central Avenue Corridor Streetscape Master Plan between 11th and 22nd
Streets in the Washington Neighborhood is being directed by the Economic Development
Department in partnership with other organizations working in the corridor, with assistance from
the Planning Services Department. Once a consultant is selected, we plan to engage
representatives from key City Departments, key community partners, and Central Avenue
Corridor stakeholders. Project objectives include:
1. Address the Corridor's current state of aesthetics as well as provide guidelines for future
improvements, and redevelopment of public infrastructure elements within the Corridor.
2. Provide design guidelines for linking complimentary uses, preserving the history and
identity of the neighborhood, and improving walkability as well as recommending options
for streetscape furnishings and landscaping.
3. Address conditions and opportunities for the Corridor's future transition from its current
status as a one-way State highway to a pedestrian-friendly two-way city street such as
traffic calming and Complete Street strategies.
4. Outline simple, cost-effective strategies that can be reasonably be achieved in a short
period of time as well as more complex, long term strategies that will require greater
coordination and expense.

• Maurice Jones, Economic Development Department

1
• Marie Ware, Leisure Services Department
• Jean Nachtman, Finance Department

RE: Central Avenue Corridor Streetscape Master Plan - Proposal
Dear Maurice and the Selection Committee:
RDG Planning&Design is pleased to submit this proposal for the Central Avenue Corridor Streetscape Master Plan for the Ciiy of
Dubuque.We are incredibly excited about all your accomplishments from the previous planning and outreach efforts that have
"paved the way" for all the opportunities to come!We look forward to the possibility of celebrating the successes of this plan with
youl
Our proposed scope of work is based on a partnership approach that will integrate Ciry Staff, ISU Extension and the RDG Team.We
believe the strongest—and most valuable plans-are the result of public and private partnerships. To provide the best return on the
City's published budget for this project, our proposed work plan will take place over four months, with most of the work being
completetl during a design workshop and public engagement event that would be held within the corridor in late summer.
The team we have assembled for this project brings a diverse set of skills and rich history in creating places that transform
communities.We understand how to establish a vision for moving forward that is founded on the voices of the community and the
pragmatic technical realities of what it takes to get it built. Each of our projects are incredibly uniquel
As you review our attached information, please consider the following:
• We live and work in Dubuque and are actively contributing to the community-committed to creating a sense of place.
This work will be managed locally!
• We understand the key underlying issues of how this project must work with the Washington Neighborhood Plan(and the
residenYs desires!),stimulate economic redevelopment and most importantly, avoid gentrifying the neighborhood.
• We bring a deep portfolio of complex projects that have been builtwithin neighborhoods and communities with similar
economic, demographic, climate and funding challenges—all of which have become opportunitiesl
• We have significant experience in working with the lowa Department of Transportation to help guide the projecYs ultimate
layout—something that will be very important as multi-modal transportation, traffic calming and complete streets
principles become integrated as the street transitions from one way to two-way traffic. �
If you have any questions about our scope, fees or schedule, please d hesitate to call us at 563.587.9244.
Sincerely,
R n Peterson, PLA P rick nn, PLA

Enhancing Community.Celebrating the History.Defining the Future.Creating a Place.
In support of the City of Dubuque's vision for the Central Avenue Corridor,our approach will consider these statements.Significant work
has been completed within the community and corridor to tlate.The Washington Neighborhood is growing at about a 9%rate annually.
The Southwest Arterial is progressing quickly,expected to be complete in late 2019.Upon completion,nearly 600 semi-trucks will be
removed from the corridor,creating an opportuniry to reimagine the circulation and urban fabric.
While there have been significant efforts focused on revitalizing the corridor to tlate-we believe the success of the corritlor's future will
be defined by the citizens that live,work and play within the neighborhood. RDG's proposetl strategy to complete the master plan will be
collaborative,focused and visionary.We believe the future is now!
To provide the services outlined within the RFP,we believe a collaborative partnership between the RDG team,Cily of Dubuque and
lowa State University will provide the City with the best value for the available budget.Our proposed scope of work will be focused,fun
and participatory.We have divided the effort into three parts resulting in a meaningful,visionary plan that can serve as the foundation
for schematic design.To maximize the budget identified within the RFP,our proposed process will take place over a ten to twelve-week
process with a major design and public engagement effort midway through the project.

The Buildup ;
�
1. Project Kick Off.Earty in the project we will conduct a kick off meeting to itlentify key project goals, review the schetlule, ;
define success and walk the corritlor.On,or arountl this date,we will contluct one-on-one meetings with key stakeholtlers and
businessowners from the corridor antl community to develop a strategic tlirection for the project.These key themes will guitle the
project and will serve as means to measure progress.
2. Base map&3D model.Using the GIS base map provided by the City of Dubuque,our team will ativance a basic 3D massing model
of the corridoc This model will extend a half block to the east antl west of Central Avenue.
3. Public Engagement. Prior to the workshop in Task 5,our team will work with the City and lowa State University to complete the
following to help promote,attract and recruit the community in a participatory workshop:
• Press Release,promoting the event
• A"sponsored" Facebook event page that targets the Washington Neighborhootl(antl citizens of Dubuque) promoting the
event.This event page would be hosed on the City's Facebook page.
• Sidewalk signs placed along the corridor advertising for the event.
• "Drop boxes"to collect comments from the community(placed along the corridor and within select businesses).
• An intercept survey using Survey Monkey campleted during the workshop.We would develop one version of the survey for
business owners and another for resitlents.
4. Historic Research.Our work will focus on Centrai Avenue and the Washington Neighborhood to understand the essence of place.
We anticipate working closery with the City of Dubuque Planning Department to help access historic property antl neighborhootl
intormation.
The"Central"Event
5. Design Workshop. Midway through the project,our team will lead a focused three-antl-a-half-day design workshop.This workshop
will allow the design team to efficiently develop concept alternatives,receive feedback and finalize a preferred vision and theme for
the corridor's future.We see this as a"transparenY'event taking place at the Historic Fire Station #1,kicked oft with a community
social inviting the residents,business owners antl communiry leaders to interact in a meaningful way,providing input for a preferred
future. During this effort,our team will be represented by four design team members representing multiple tlisciplines,including
artistry,landscape architecture,engineering and urban design.The foilowing is an annotatetl workshop schedule:
