Dear Mayor and City Council Members:
The City of Dubuque Zoning Advisory Commission has reviewed the above-cited request. The
application, staff report and related materials are attached for your review.
Discussion
The applicant spoke in favor of the request, reviewing the proposed subdivision and requesting
that street design standards for paving thickness and base stone be waived to allow an
alternative design. A memo from the applicant's engineer is attached.
Staff reviewed the submitted preliminary plat, noting that it is within two miles of the corporate
limits. Staff reviewed the City design standards for private streets in terms of paving thickness
and base stone requirements.
There were no public comments.
The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, noting that the information submitted
by the applicant's engineer indicates that the strength coefficient values are similar between the
City's standard and that proposed for streets within Paradise Hills Subdivision.
Recommendation
By a vote of 6 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council approve
the request, subject to waiving the City's private street standard for paving thickness and base
stone.
A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request.
Respectfully submitted,

Re:
Paradise Hills 2nd Addition, Pavement Structure
Dear Bill,
Per our earlier discussion we have reviewed the equivalent strengths of the street section required
by the City of Dubuque and the section requested by Roger Schuller. For our review we utilized
AASHTO strength coefficient values per I" of pavement as listed below.
Material
P.CC
H.MA
Base Stone
Strength Coefficient
0.50
0.44
0.14
The value of the required cross section of the city of Dubuque is 3.71. Based on the strength
coefficients equivalent sections include:
L 3" ofHMA on 1 T' of base stone, Estimated cost per station $5,550
"It 2. 4" of HMA on 14" of base stone, Estimated cost per station $5,700 '*
3. 5" of HMA on 12.5" of base stone, Estimated cost per station $5,870
4. 7" ofHMA on 4.5" of base stone. Estimated cost per station $6,150
The above costs estimates are based on estimated unit prices of $10 per ton for base stone and
$44 per ton for HMA.
The alternate of 4" of HMA on a 14" thick compacted stone base has been utilized on past
developments we have worked on in Dubuque County and will be suitable for the loadings
typically associated with the proposed residential development.
Please feel free to contact our Manchester office if you have any questions or would like to
further discuss this information.
Sincerely,
TeKIPPE ENGINEERING, P.C.

Subdivision Staff Report - Paradise Hills Subdivision 2nd Addition
Page 2
Traffic Patterns: The proposed new private street connects to Humke Road. Based on
2001 IDOT counts, Humke Road carries approximately 290 average daily trips.
Public Services: Existing public services are adequate to serve the site.
Environment: Staff does not anticipate any adverse impact to the environment provided
adequate erosion control is provided during all phases of development of the
subdivision.
Adjacent Properties: Adjacent properties will be most impacted by the new subdivision
through an increase in volume of traffic on Humke Road and changes to them natural
landscape caused by development of the subdivision.
Recommended Conditions on Plat: None.
Staff Analysis: The submitted preliminary plat of Paradise Hills 2nd Addition provides for the
platting off of 27 single-family lots along a new private street, which connects to Humke
Road. The subject subdivision is located within the two-mile extra jurisdictional area of the
city of Dubuque. The submitted preliminary plat is jointly reviewed by the city and county of
Dubuque.
The proposed subdivision provides individual septic systems for each lot and a water system
to be comprised of five community wells. The proposed subdivision contains two new
private streets - one that connects to the existing Humke Road, and another that heads to
the south and allows for future development on a parcel to the south. The applicant is
proposing to build the private streets with two inches of asphalt over a six-inch stone base.
This type of cross section does not comply with City of Dubuque Private Street Standard of
6.25-inches of concrete and four inches of base stone, or seven inches of asphalt and 4.5
inches of base stone. The applicant is requesting that the Zoning Advisory Commission
waive the street standard for pavement thickness and stone as part of this preliminary plat.
The Zoning Advisory Commission has the authority to recommend a waiver for specific
standards for subdivisions.
The submitted preliminary plat of Paradise Hills 2nd Addition is in all other respects in
compliance with City of Dubuque Subdivision Standards and Planning staff recommends
approval of the preliminary plat subject to resolution of the paving standard for the proposed
private streets.

SUBJECT: Paradise Hills 2nd Addition - Proposed Waiver of Private Street Standards
Roger and Lois Schueller have submitted a preliminary plat for Paradise Hills 2nd
Addition on Humke Road. This subdivision is in the County within the City of Dubuque's
two-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction for subdivision review and approval.
A waiver of the City standards for pavement thickness of private street was requested
by the Schuellers and that request is recommended by the Zoning Advisory
Commission for approval.
The City standard is 7" of asphalt over 4.5" of base stone, the same as the County
standard. The Schuellers wish to construct a street with 2" of asphalt over 6" of base
stone.
City staff is recommending that this pavement thickness waiver not be granted.
I respectfully request Mayor and City Council approval of the preliminary plat without the
street standard waiver.

Paradise Hills 2nd Addition - Proposed Waiver of Private Street Standards
TO:
RE:
Introduction
Roger and Lois Schueller have submitted a preliminary plat for Paradise Hills 2nd
Addition on Humke Road. This subdivision is in the County within the City of Dubuque's
two-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction for subdivision review and approval.
A waiver of Private Street Standards has been requested and recommended for this
subdivision. City staff is not recommending this waiver.
Background
On March 1 , 2004, the City Council adopted the Fringe Area Policy Agreement as the
City's policy for subdivision development in the two-mile fringe around Dubuque. The
Fringe Area Policy Agreement divides the two-mile fringe into Primary Growth Areas
and Secondary Growth Areas, and sets Development Standards for these areas. The
Development Standards for the Secondary Growth Areas follow.
Secondary Growth Areas represent transitional zones between rural and urban
development because of their proximity to Primary Growth Areas, ability to be served by
City utility extensions, and their relationship to major transportation corridors.
Based on the Comprehensive Plan and Annexation Study, the City could potentially
meet the infrastructure needs of these Secondary Growth Areas, but does not have
immediate plans for annexation. Therefore, these areas may be developed in
accordance with City Standards, or they may be allowed to develop in accordance with
the County Standards.
Since these Secondary Growth Areas have the potential to be annexed by the City,
roadways in these transitional zones will be encouraged to have an urban street profile
with integral curb and gutter built to City or County Standards. If the roadways are built
with a rural profile with drainage swales, they are to meet City Standards for pavement
width for private streets, and all other County Standards at a minimum.
Paradise Hills Subdivision
Page 2
Discussion
The Schuellers have requested a waiver from the City's Private Street Standards for
paving thickness and base stone. A report from their engineer was provided to the
Zoning Advisory Commission, as were the City's standards. The Schuellers are
proposing to build two private streets with 2 inches of asphalt over 6 inches of base
stone. The City standard is 7 inches of asphalt over 4% inches of base stone.
The Zoning Advisory Commission has the authority to recommend a waiver from City
Standards if the literal enforcement of one or more of the provisions of these Standards
is impracticable or will exact an undue hardship because of peculiar conditions
pertaining to the land in question.
The Commission has recommended approval of the preliminary plat with a waiver from
the City's Private Street Standards for paving thickness and base stone.
In reviewing Paradise Hills 2nd Addition, the Zoning Advisory Commission asked: who is
responsible for the bonding and certificate of compliance for roads in the primary and
secondary growth areas? Planning staff responded that the developer would be
responsible for the bonding and the developer's engineer would be responsible for the
issuance of a certificate of compliance when all work is completed to specifications.
Paradise Hills 2nd Addition is located in a Secondary Growth Area. The two private
streets will be built to a rural profile with drainage swales. According to the City's policy,
the roads would have to meet City Standards for pavement width for private streets, and
all other County Standards at a minimum. The County Standards for paving thickness
and stone base for streets with a rural profile are the same as the City's Private Street
Standards: 7 inches of asphalt over 4% inches of base stone.
Recommendation
City Planning and Engineering staff recommend that the City's Private Street Standards
for paving thickness and base stone be required for this subdivision, in accordance with
the City's adopted policy for subdivision development in the two-mile fringe.
Requested Action
The re~uested action is for the City Council to approve the preliminary plat for Paradise
Hills 2 Addition without the waiver of the City's Private Street Standards.
