RE: Platting of City Property on Chavenelle Road (McFadden Farm Place No.
5, City of Dubuque lowa)
INTRODUCTION
This memorandum is a request for approval of the Plat of Survey for Lot 1 and 2 of
McFadden Farm Place No. 5 in the City of Dubuque as part of a revised development
agreement between the City, Walter Development LLC, and Duluth Holdings, Inc.
BACKGROUND
Walter Development, LLC is a local company that has successfully built and occupied
several properties in Dubuque's Industrial Center West, providing services for other
local companies such as John Deere.
In 2019 Walter Development, LLC negotiated leases with two companies, Duluth
Holdings, Inc. and Crown Holdings, looking to relocate operations to the City of
Dubuque. Those two companies collectively agreed to add at least 116 new jobs to the
community. The companies agreed to lease space at Walter Development's property at
7500 Chavenelle Road. In order to accommodate these two new lessees, Walter
Development, LLC entered into a Development Agreement with the City of Dubuque in
November 2019 for the purchase of land and to construct an industrial building farther
east of the 7500 Chavenelle Road property and to relocate its staff in the new building
at 5955 Chavenelle Road.
Walter Development, LLC has begun to construct the facility of approximately 216,000
square feet at an estimated cost of $9,000,000, as well as constructing a stormwater
detention facility which will also serve adjacent properties.
Because a portion of the land Walter Development, LLC acquired had already been
graded by the City for a different anticipated project, and other portions had not been
graded, the Development Agreement provided for different pricing for graded versus
ungraded land, described as Parcel A and Parcel B in the Development Agreement.
The Development Agreement provided 10 years of Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
rebates to Walter Development, LLC as an employer, plus an additional 4 years, for a
total of 14 years of TIF rebates, which includes costs incurred by the City to finance this
urban renewal project. The Development Agreement also provided a land acquisition
grant for the land purchase in order to incentivize this project.
DISCUSSION
Duluth Holdings, Inc. had tremendous success in its initial year in Dubuque, hiring a
core team of fulltime staff as well as several hundred seasonal employees. Duluth
Holdings, Inc. now wishes to grow its distribution operations as well as automate its
facility. Doing so at the 7500 Chavenelle location would create logistical difficulties. In
order to facilitate the company's growth, Walter Development, LLC began discussions
with the company about the possibility of having Duluth Holdings, Inc. install its
automated equipment at 5955 Chavenelle, and to move its distribution operations to
that location after the installation is complete.
Walter Development, LLC and Duluth Holdings, Inc. have tentatively agreed to a lease
for the 7500 Chavenelle location in order to accommodate Duluth Holdings, Inc's
planned growth. To facilitate Duluth Holdings, Inc's needs at that location, Walter
Development, LLC has requested to purchase additional property from the City, shown
as Parcel C in the Development agreement and as Lot 2 on the attached plat of survey,
as well as to assign its rights and obligations as an employer in the original
Development Agreement to Duluth Holdings, Inc.
In the Spring of this year, the City approved an Amended and Restated Development
Agreement which provided for the sale of an additional 0.77 acres of City-owned
property to Walter Development, LLC, increased the Minimum Improvements required
to be constructed from $9 million to $15 million, and transferred the first 10 years of TIF
rebates, which had been committed to Walter Development, LLC, to Duluth Holdings,
Inc. Walter Development, LLC will continue to receive the additional four years of TIF
provided in the original Development Agreement. Duluth Holdings, Inc. is required to
retain its current 12 fulltime employees. The other terms and conditions remain as they
were in the original Development Agreement.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Plat of Survey for Lot 1 and 2 of McFadden Farm Place No.
5 in the City of Dubuque be approved and executed by the Mayor and Clerk to create
the additional 0.77 acre lot to be conveyed to Walter Development, LLC as stipulated in
the recently revised development agreement.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
I respectfully request approval of the Plat of Survey for Lot 1 and 2 of McFadden Farm
Place No. 5 in the City of Dubuque through the adoption of the enclosed resolutions.
