INTRODUCTION
This memo transmits a packet of information for the upcoming July 20 City Council
Work Session on Imagine Dubuque Implementation. This item is a City Council Top
Priority for the 2019-2021 Policy Agenda. The work session is to update the City
Council on the implementation of the plan and to review the plan prior to going into goal
setting. In addition to myself, Project Manager Assistant Planner Chris Olson and our
consultants from Teska Associates will be presenting before the City Council.
BACKGROUND
Imagine Dubuque 2037:A Call to Action is the City's 2017 Comprehensive Plan. The
comprehensive plan serves as a guide for the community's physical, social, and
economic development. Comprehensive plans are policy guides. Unlike zoning or city
codes, they are not regulatory in purpose or application.
Information in the Imagine Dubuque Comprehensive Plan is used in many facets of city
life. Of qreatest note is its role in informinq Citv Council qoal settinq, annual budqet
priorities, and land use decisions.
Engaging the community in a conversation about the future of Dubuque was at the core
of the Imagine Dubuque process. We inclusively engaged 6,000 people, generating
12,500+ ideas. Ideas were narrowed into themes in 7 plan categories to create 110
community recommendations.
The 7 plan categories are: Economic Prosperity, Sustainable Environment, Social &
Cultural Vibrancy, Healthy Neighborhoods & Housing, Community Facilities,
Transportation & Mobility, and Land Use.
DISCUSSION
The vision of making Dubuque a more viable, livable and equitable community requires
the entire community working together towards common goals. Enclosed is the Imagine
Dubuque Implementation: Recommendations at a Glance.
1
The document is color coded for each of the 7 plan categories. For each category, a
Department Manager serves as the Connector in our Implementation Framework. In the
35 subcategories, there are 110 plan recommendations. Each recommendation has an
assigned subject expert, known as a Coordinator. Coordinators track progress and
challenges, while identifying metrics and stories that can help inform the community of
the status of their plan.
Staff is currently working with Connectors and Coordinators to identify Champions of the
plan. Champions can be people, organizations, events, projects, programs and
initiatives.
The attached Organizational Chart further defines the roles and structure of the Imagine
Dubuque Implementation model. Staff and the consultant will utilize the Work Session
as an opportunity to re-familiarize Council Members with the plan in light of the role it
plays in the upcoming City Council goal setting.
REQUESTED ACTION
This information is being provided as an update; no further action is required at this
time.
