CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA
MEMORANDUM
August 1, 2000
TO: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
Michael A. Koch, Public Works Director "J1Ij;(~
FROM:
SUBJECT: Cooperative Agreement with Dubuque County for Painting of
Pavement Markings on Secondary Roads and City Streets
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to request City Council approval of a new
cooperative agreement between the City of Dubuque and Dubuque County for the
painting of pavement markings on secondary roads and streets lying within the
respective jurisdictions of each public agency.
DISCUSSION
Due to recent annexations by the City of Dubuque, several sections of streets now
under the jurisdiction of the City are extensions of existing County secondary roads,
for which it would be better for Dubuque County to continue the painting of pavement
markings.
Conversely, there are sections of streets within the City of Dubuque for which it is
more efficient for the City to paint the pavement markings on certain sections of
secondary roads located within Dubuque County. Some of these roadways also have
the jurisdictional boundary located at the centerline of the roadway, which would be
extremely cumbersome to be split between the two agencies.
The attached agreement lists the various streets and secondary roads which would be
painted by the County and by the City. The County and City also agree to indemnify
and hold harmless the other agency from any damages or claims as a result of the
painting operations.
The proposed agreement has been reviewed and approved by Corporation Counsel, and
has already been executed by the Dubuque County Board of Supervisors on June 19,
2000. The agreement and resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute the agreement
are enclosed.
.' .
.
.
,
. RECOMMENDATION
I would recommend that the City Council approve the agreement and authorize the
Mayor to execute the agreement on behalf of the City.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution authorizing the Mayor
to execute the agreement with Dubuque County.
