INTRODUCTION
This memorandum provides information regarding the lowa Department of Inspections
and Appeals (IDIA) renewal agreement with the City of Dubuque for performance of
food and hotel licensing, inspections, and enforcement with respect to retail food
establishments.
BACKGROUND
Since 1978, the City Council has continued a Memorandum of Understanding with the
State in order to allow the City to license, inspect and enforce the lowa Food Service
Sanitation Code, lowa Hotel Sanitation Code, the lowa Food and Home Food
Establishment Codes, and the lowa Food & Beverage Vending Machine laws. The
most recent agreement was from June 30,2020 through December 31, 2020.
The City carries out the terms of this agreement through the two Environmental
Sanitarians in the Health Services Department. Regular inspections are made of
restaurants, schools, grocery and convenience stores, mobile food units, hotels,
taverns, and temporary food stands throughout the city.
DISCUSSION
The duration of the agreement was determined by progress on meeting FDA Voluntary
National Retail Food Program Standards, a requirement of IDIA, along with overall
program outcomes and being on the same cycle as the other DIA contracts throughout
the state. The longest term-agreements are 2 years for agencies that have met the
required standards by June 30, 2020. Since we now have completed the required
standards, the newly proposed contract is for a 6- month period and put us on the two-
year renewal cycle that DIA applies to other contracts in the state.
Service People Integrity Responsibility Innovation Teamwork
In addition to the Standard 6 being update that was completed, 9 standards will have to
be reviewed and updated by 2023, the date of the next contract renewal.
Since this is a contract extension, no changes are proposed to the existing contract.
This agreement will put us on the subsequent two-year contract cycle with DIA that they
will apply to all local contracting agencies.
BUDGETIMPACT
FY'20 revenue generated by license fees collected from these various establishments
was $143,528. FY'21 revenues of$67,820, are currently at 45% of the $150,000
projected revenue budget. Projected revenue for FY'22 is $143,528 based on the
FY'20 actual.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the 28E agreement with the IDIA for
inspection, licensing, and enforcement of these establishments.
ACTION STEP
The action step is for the City Council to authorize the City Manager to sign the
agreement on behalf of the City.
