INTRODUCTION
This memorandum presents for City Council consideration a Resolution of Necessity
that: 1) finds that an amendment of the Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan
for the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District is both necessary and appropriate;
and 2) sets a public hearing on the proposed amendment for May 2, 2011.
The proposed amendment of this District would (i) expand the District to include areas
generally known as the Washington Neighborhood, Chaplain Schmitt Island, and the
Industrial Harbor, and (ii) merge the East 7 Street Economic Development District and
the Kerper Economic Development District into the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal
District (See Attached Map).
BACKGROUND
The Downtown Dubuque Urban Renewal District was originally established in 1967. It
has been amended and restated on several occasions over the years to expand the
boundaries to include the Old Main area, the Iowa Inn property, Dubuque Museum of
Art, Historic Federal Building, Locust Street Parking Ramp, the Carnegie -Stout Public
Library, the South Main area, the Warehouse District, the South Port area, the Cable
Car area, the Bluff Street area, and the South Bluff area. On April 19 2004, the
Downtown Dubuque Urban Renewal District was merged with the Ice Harbor Urban
Renewal District. By combining the two districts, both public and private development
efforts have benefited from greater flexibility in the use of tax increment financing in the
larger district.
Before a municipality can exercise the authority conferred by Chapter 403 "Urban
Renewal" of the Iowa Code, a Resolution of Necessity must be adopted finding that the
area being considered for urban renewal district designation is either a slum, blighted or
economic development area and that the rehabilitation, conservation, redevelopment,
development, or a combination thereof, of the area is necessary in the interest of the
public health, safety or welfare of the residents of the city.
The Iowa Code defines a blighted area as, "an area of a municipality within which the
local governing body of the municipality determines that the presence of a substantial
number of slum, deteriorated, or deteriorating structures; defective or inadequate street
layout; faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility, or usefulness;
unsanitary or unsafe conditions; deterioration of site or other improvements; diversity of
ownership, tax or special assessment delinquency exceeding the fair value of the land;
defective or unusual conditions of title; or the existence of conditions which endanger
life or property by fire and other causes; or any combination of these factors;
substantially impairs or arrests the sound growth of a municipality, retards the provision
of housing accommodations, or constitutes an economic or social liability and is a
menace to the public health, safety, or welfare in its present condition and use ". An
economic development area is defined as, "an area of a municipality designated by the
local governing body as appropriate for commercial and industrial enterprises or
housing and residential development for low and moderate income families, including
single or multifamily housing."
Several issues, events or circumstances have spurred research into expanding the
Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District to improve areas around the core downtown
area. The issues are:
• The NIU Study on crime and poverty that showed the Washington Neighborhood
and the Central Avenue Corridor is in need of assistance to combat the real and
perceived crime in the area.
• Implementing the key recommendations from the Safe Community Task Force.
• The Dubuque Racing Association is investigating an initiative to create a master
plan for Chaplain Schmitt Island.
• Major leases along the Industrial Harbor are set to expire over the next 10 years
and may create the opportunity for new investment.
• Redevelopment of the former Dubuque Pack site.
• The implementation of the Washington Neighborhood Development Plan.
• The age of structures in the area.
• The implementation of the Historic Millwork District Master Plan.
• Implementation of the Bee Branch Creek Restoration Project.
• Population declines in the Washington Neighborhood area.
• Area's minimal increases in property values over the last 10 years.
• Recent adoption of a historic conservation district for much of this area.
• Designation of Prescott School as a persistently lowest- achieving school by the
US Dept. of Education.
• Announcement by Alliant Energy that in 2015 they will decommission the
Dubuque coal -fired power plant.
• Creation of the Washington Neighborhood Development Corporation.
• In the next few years there will be resources available in the Kerper Boulevard
Subarea that could help finance activity throughout the expanded district.
DISCUSSION
This proposed expansion of the District would include new areas generally known as
the Washington Neighborhood, Chaplain Schmitt Island, and the Industrial Harbor, and
the merger of the East 7 Street Economic Development District and the Kerper
Economic Development District into the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District.
The following is a discussion of each area and the reasons it is proposed to be included
in the District.
Washington Neighborhood
In September 2009, the City Council held a community forum. The forum was intended
to facilitate community dialog on issues regarding public safety. Over 130 residents
attended the event, from all sectors of the community including the Mayor and City
Council, City staff, representatives from neighborhood associations, landlords, the
business community, educational and religious institutions, non - profit organizations,
youth representatives, and the public at- large.
Subsequent to this meeting the City Council formed a Safe Community Task Force
(SCTF). The SCTF was assigned to:
• Gather facts on the scope of crime and safety issues in the community;
• Identify efforts currently underway to improve and prevent future problems;
• Review and analyze how other communities have addressed crime and safety
issues; and,
• Recommend goals and objectives for the leadership of Dubuque.
The Mayor and City Council appointed 25 citizens to serve on the newly established
SCTF. The SCTF was assisted by representatives from key City departments including
the City Manager's Office, Human Rights, Police, and Housing, with additional City staff
serving as a resource. The SCTF met monthly from October 2009 through July 2010.
Recognizing that the work of the SCTF was comprehensive in nature, four sub-
committees were also established. The four sub - committees, made up of additional
citizens, included:
• Neighborhood Engagement/Social Capital
• Enforcement
• Management of Physical Environment
• Research and Facts
The role of the subcommittees was to help identify issues and develop opportunities or
recommendations for the SCTF. The SCTF considered sub - committee input as part of
the overall implementation strategy in the community.
The SCTF then adopted the following two goals:
1. To identify and act upon things that most effectively reduce crime and that most
effectively reduce the perception of crime; and
2. Recognize people want to feel safe and identify ways to provide that feeling of
safety.
The SCTF forwarded an initial set of recommendations to the City Council in February
2010. The SCTF also recommended the retention of a facilitator to assist in the ongoing
process. Urban Strategies, of St. Louis, Missouri, began facilitation starting in March
2010. In July 2010, the SCTF submitted a second set of recommendations to the City
Council.
In the meantime, a subcommittee of SCTF members worked with City staff to implement
one of the February recommendations, which consisted of a comprehensive study on
crime and poverty in Dubuque. This subgroup solicited requests for proposals,
reviewed the responses received, conducted interviews, and discussed this information
with the full SCTF. The SCTF then recommended selection of Northern Illinois
University Center for Governmental Studies (NIU /CGS) to conduct the study, which the
City Council approved. From May 2010 through January 2011, NIU /CGS conducted a
massive study on crime and poverty in Dubuque. On January 14, 2011, NIU /CGS
delivered the 779 -page final report. On January 25, 2011, NIU /CGS presented its
findings to the SCTF in a three -hour presentation.
Among other pieces of information, the NIU Crime Study stated that 71% of
respondents fear coming downtown at night. This is a significant finding and the study
proposes several methods to combat this issue. One recommendation is to invest in
the infrastructure and properties within the challenged area. Having appropriate funding
to promote reinvestment in the neighborhood will be critical for this to happen. The use
of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) has been an effective tool to encourage the downtown
revitalization and may be effective in revitalizing this area as well.
The Safe Community Taskforce has provided recommendations to implement the
findings of the 2010 Crime Report by NIU. Three of these recommendations are as
follows:
• As exterior code violations are identified in neighborhoods, identify volunteers
who are willing to assist with helping property owners remedy those violations,
which will address the property conditions while also building relationships and a
sense of community.
• Support economic development efforts to create opportunities.
• Expand the lighting recommendation to "Brighten up the streets and alleys at
night and increase visibility for residents wherever lights are needed."
These recommendations could be implemented more quickly if this area is included in
the Urban Renewal District and funding becomes available for these projects.
The Washington area has not seen the level of growth in property values as compared
to the rest of the community. With the help of the City Assessor's Office, research was
conducted of property values in 2000 and 2010 for the area. The area showed a 30.8%
increase in property values from 2000 to 2010. Community wide, the property values
increased 145.2% for the same period. This shows that the Washington area has
grown at nearly 1/5 of the rate as the rest of the community. Having this area in the
Urban Renewal District will provide additional tools to assist this neighborhood and
hopefully, provide a growth rate equal to the City's overall growth rate.
4
The Washington Neighborhood has also experienced a decrease in population as
evidenced by the recent result of the 2010 US Census. Although census tracts do not
exactly align with our defined neighborhood boundaries, Census Tract 5 which covers
most of the Washington Neighborhood experienced a 5.1% (209 people) loss between
2000 and 2010. This can be attributable to the disinvestment of the area and residents
preferring to locate in other parts of the community. Attached is a map of the downtown
area census tracts in relation to the proposed expansion areas of the Greater
Downtown Urban Renewal District.
Areas of the Washington Neighborhood are prone to flooding from the enclosed Bee
Branch storm sewer. America's River Phase III has begun to 'daylight' the creek. This
will be a major amenity to the area and will encourage reinvestment. The project is
scheduled to be complete by 2013. Again, an urban renewal district can provide the
potential for financial assistance in this redevelopment.
The age of structures in the proposed Washington Subarea is another factor relating to
the disinvestment within the area. Attached is a map showing the ages of structures
within the Washington Neighborhood. Older structures require proper upkeep to
maintain their quality. The economic conditions of the area over last several decades
has not encouraged or allowed some owners to properly maintain their properties. The
financial tools available in an urban renewal district can be used to assist in this
redevelopment. The West Locust/Bluff Street area also suffers from having an older
building stock and has deteriorated from years of disinvestment and vacancies.
The area has several historic structures which should be preserved to maintain the
historic nature of the neighborhood. Attached are maps showing the locations of
historically significant structures and areas surveyed for conservation districts or
national historic status. Much of this area was recently included in a historic
conservation district.
Prescott School, one of the elementary schools in the area, has been classified as a
Persistently Lowest - Achieving School from the US Dept. of Education through the No
Child Left Behind program. Many factors are causing this designation, but improving
the economic climate of the immediate area would help in improving education in the
neighborhood.
The boundary of the Washington Neighborhood subarea (shown in blue on the attached
map) was selected by connecting to the northern boundary of the existing Greater
Downtown District with the entirety of the Washington Neighborhood up to Comisky
Park, the West Locust Corridor, and the north end of Bluff Street. Areas east of the
Washington Neighborhood were also included because these areas are already in the
City's Enterprise Zone 2, which is classified as a distressed area.
5
Chaplain Schmitt Island
The Dubuque Racing Association has initiated a discussion with area leaders to create
a master plan to improve Chaplain Schmitt Island and make it a beautiful entry point into
the community from Wisconsin. Areas of the island are at a disadvantage for
redevelopment because of potential flooding. Also, portions of the island were
previously used as a city landfill. Having the island in the Greater Downtown Urban
Renewal Area allows for the existing district to assist in funding projects which would
accomplish goals established in a future master plan for redevelopment.
The subarea would include the entirety of Chaplain Schmitt Island (shown in yellow on
the attached map).
Industrial Harbor
The lower Bee Branch and the Industrial Harbor areas are currently undergoing a
transformation. The Bee Branch creek restoration will make the 16 Street area a
recreation amenity and will be creating parcels for additional commercial development.
The parcel development on the south side of 16 Street may need assistance to
achieve a quality development. The City owned leases in the Industrial Harbor are
beginning to expire and an effort to gain market rate leases on the property has the
potential for the area to increase in valuation. In some situations, it may be necessary
for the City to partner with potential lessees. The financial tools available in an urban
renewal district could provide the public assistance needed in these public /private
partnerships.
Several areas within this subarea have significant environmental issues which will need
financial assistance if they are to be redeveloped. The former Operations &
Maintenance Garage on Kerper Boulevard and AY McDonald site on E. 12 Street are
Superfund sites. These areas have the potential for redevelopment due to their
proximity to other areas of town, but environmental remediation activities will need to
occur to achieve a quality development. Alliant Energy has identified the coal -fired
power plant on East 7 Street for closure in 2015. This site will most likely have
environmental issues that need assistance to redevelop the property.
The Shot Tower is also included in this subarea. The structure is listed on the National
Register of Historic Places and efforts are ongoing to provide meaningful interpretation
in and around the structure.
The Industrial Harbor subarea boundary was selected by having the western boundary
meet the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District, surround the East 7 Street
Economic Development District (Morrison Bros.) , and include the areas of the Kerper
Boulevard Economic Development District that have not increased in valuation (shown
in green on the attached map). Property owned by Blum Salvage has not been included
in the District. This is because acquisition of the property is currently under negotiation
under the Bee Branch Creek Restoration project.
6
East 7 Street Economic Development District
The proposed expansion to the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District would totally
surround the East 7 Street Urban Renewal District and therefore makes it logical to
merge this district into the Greater Downtown District. The district was created to assist
Morrison Brothers Company to expand their operations.
Kerper Boulevard Economic Development District
The Kerper Boulevard Economic Development District was created in 1994 to assist in
Eagle Window and Door's relocation to a new facility on Kerper Boulevard (shown as
red on the attached map) and potentially assist in improvements to the Dubuque Pack
property.
The City Council in 1994 self- imposed a 20 year time limit to collect tax increment from
the designated economic development district (in 1994, Iowa law did not restrict
economic development districts with a time limit). The City Council has the ability to
amend the self- imposed time limit and allow the area to continue to collect tax
increment to the extent allowed by current law.
This proposed subarea has properties that have significant environmental
contamination issues. The former City Operations & Maintenance Facility was once a
coal gasification plant. This site, and a site on East 12 Street, has been classified as a
Superfund site by the US EPA. Other areas within the subarea could be classified as
brownfields, as they have real or perceived environmental issues relating to their
redevelopment.
In this proposal to merge the Kerper Boulevard District into the Greater. Downtown
Urban Renewal District, it would best if the current Kerper Boulevard District be
separated into two sub -areas or parts. The area containing Eagle Window, the City
Operations and Maintenance facility, and Flynn Ready -Mix would be its own subarea in
the plan (shown in red). This sub -area would have existing increment which is being
utilized to retire debt and would continue to be classified as an economic development
area. The other part, the Dubuque Pack property, would be included in the Industrial
Harbor subarea and classified as a blighted area. The area including Eagle Window &
Door's property would no longer have a self- imposed expiration date but would now
have a new statutory (20 -year) limit on tax increment collections. The property tax
increment being generated from this site would be available to help finance other
improvements once the existing obligations are satisfied.
The attached Resolution directs staff to prepare an Amended and Restated Urban
Renewal Plan and to forward the Plan to the Long Range Planning Commission for its
review and comment. This is required by Chapter 403 along with a consultation
process that involves all affected taxing entities. Those taxing entities, the County,
School Board and Community College, have an opportunity to comment on the
proposed Plan prior to the required public hearing on the Amended and Restated Urban
Renewal Plan, but they cannot block adoption of the Plan. This expansion will
encourage continued investment within the downtown area.
7
A City Council public hearing on the Amended and Restated Urban Renewal Plan will
be scheduled for May 2, 2011. The public notice will be published four to twenty days
before the meeting to allow for the appropriate publication requirements. This will allow
time for preparation of the Plan, review and comment period by the Long Range
Planning Commission and the consultation process with the taxing entities.
RECOMENDATION
I recommend the City Council adopt the attached Resolution of Necessity that begins
the process of amending the Urban Renewal Plan for the Greater Downtown Urban
Renewal District to expand the District to include areas generally known as the
Washington Neighborhood, Chaplain Schmitt Island, and the Industrial Harbor, and to
merge the East 7 Street Economic Development District and the Kerper Boulevard
Economic Development District into the Greater Downtown Urban Renewal District.
The amendment will provide additional tools to encourage reinvestment and
redevelopment activities throughout the expanded District and will support the
revitalization of the area.
ACTION STEP
The action step for the City Council is to adopt the Resolution of Necessity attached to
this memorandum.
