INTRODUCTION
This memorandum recommends approval of a resolution to approve Purchase of
Service Agreements with the Crescent Community Health Center and Operation: New
View to provide services to the community in the soon to be renovated Engine House
#1 building (18th Street) which formerly housed the City's Housing Department offices.
BACKGROUND
The Housing Department moved into their new offices at the Federal Building in 2008
and since that time their former offices on 18th Street have remained vacant. The
Housing Department released an RFP for ideas on re- utilization of the facility. The
Crescent Community Health Center and Operation: New View's Head Start program
expressed an interest in leasing portions of the building. The building will need to be
renovated to accommodate these tenants. The goal is to historically rehabilitate the
building using historic tax credits as one of the revenue sources. To facilitate additional
funding from the State and Federal Historic Tax Credit (HTC) programs, the building
must be controlled by an entity eligible to receive HTCs.
The original Development Agreement was approved with Engine House #1, LLC on
June 6, 2011. The Development Agreement was assigned to DB &T Community
Development Corp on August 15, 2011.
DISCUSSION
Leaving the building vacant is detrimental to this neighborhood. The proposed services
that will be provided by both the Community Health Center and the Head Start program
will greatly enhance the quality of life for this neighborhood. Substantial rehabilitation of
this building will also provide many benefits to this neighborhood.
The City is ineligible for HTCs and must turn long -term control over to a separate entity.
Dubuque Initiatives originally agreed to take on the redevelopment project. However,
Dubuque Bank & Trust CDC has offered to take on the project and is better suited for
the project than Dubuque Initiatives.
The project is pursuing HTCs because there is a desire to rehabilitate the building to its
historic condition much like it appeared when it was a fire station. This historic
renovation will add some cost to the project which can be offset by receiving HTCs. It is
anticipated that this rehabilitation project will also serve as a potential stimulus to
enhance the renovation of other buildings in this area.
A component of the financing structure is for the two non - profit organizations to receive
Purchase of Service Agreements from the City to provide services to the community.
Crescent Community Health Center will be providing the following services;
a) provide nutrition education and exercise classes;
b) lead stress management and obesity reduction classes and programs; and
c) provide general illness prevention services and group health education of all
types.
Operation: New View will be providing the following services;
d) educational, health, nutritional, social and other services to children and families;
e) enhance the social and cognitive development of children; and
f) engage parents in their children's learning and help parents achieve their own
educational, literacy and employment goals while engaging in their children's
academic development.
Each Purchase of Service Agreement is for $25,000 per year with a term of six years.
Each agreement will begin July 1, 2012.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council approve the attached resolution to approve Purchase
of Service Agreements with the Crescent Community Health Center and Operation:
New View to provide services to the community in the soon to be renovated Engine
House #1 building (18th Street) which formerly housed the City's Housing Department
offices.
ACTION STEP
The action step for the City Council is to approve the attached resolution.
