CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA
MEMORANDUM
March 28, 2000
TO:
Zoning Advisory Commission
Kyle L. Kritz, Associate Planner X f. :r.
FROM:
SUBJECT: Limited Dubuque Industrial Center Planned Industrial District
INTRODUCTION
The Community and Economic Development Department is proposing an amendment
to the Dubuque Industrial Center Planned Industrial District to allow the construction of
common drives. The proposed plan amendment amends the lot development zones so
that a common driveway can be constructed between two adjoining properties to serve
multiple businesses.
DISCUSSION
City staff recently found that during the review of a proposed development along
Radford Road that the existing planned industrial district for the Dubuque Industrial
Center does not allow for a common drive to serve two adjoining properties. Both
Community and Economic Development, Engineering and Planning staff feel that it
would be beneficial to amend the PI District to allow for common drives, as this has
several advantages in the development of property. First, a common access reduces
the number of curb cuts onto a City street. Second, it can help reduce development
costs by allowing two adjoining businesses to share the cost of construction of the
drive. Last, it will increase the available green space as two access drives could be
consolidated into one.
While the Dubuque Industrial Center is nearly fully developed, there are several parcels
along Radford Road as well as one large parcel on Chavanelle Road across from
Nordstrom's that could benefit from this proposed plan amendment.
CONCLUSION
Staffs do not believe that the proposed amendment is contrary to the intent or purpose
of the original PUD ordinance for the Dubuque Industrial Center, and request that the
Zoning Advisory Commission review this request and recommend approval to the City
of Dubuque.

The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members

Dubuque, IA 52001
RE: Amend PI District
Applicant: City of Dubuque Community and Economic Development Department
Location: Dubuque Industrial Center
Description: Amend Dubuque Industrial Center PI Planned Industrial District to allow
construction of common driveways to serve adjacent properties.
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
Kyle L. Kritz, Associate Planner for the City of Dubuque, spoke in favor of the request. He
stated that request will allow the use of common drives in the Dubuque Industrial Center,
which will reduce the number of curb cuts and increase green space.
The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, noting that the ability to use
common drives is allowed anywhere else in the City of Dubuque; thus, it is appropriate to
allow it in the Dubuque Industrial Center.
Recommendation
By a vote of 7 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City Council
approve the request.
A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request.
Respectfully submitted, Q n
