The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
City of Dubuque
City Hall- 50 W. 13th Street

Applicant:
Location:
Description:
John & Sally Jo Herrig
South of Derby Grange Road, Dubuque County
To rezone property from County A 1 Agricultural District to City AG
Agricultural District, R-3 Moderate Density Multi-Family Residential
District, and C-3 General Commercial District in conjunction with
annexation to the City of Dubuque.
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 conceptual layout of streets
and zoning, noting that future platting of the property will refine the street and lot
layouts. The applicant reviewed that an extension of Plaza Drive will serve the
property and be connected to Derby Grange Road.
Staff reviewed the requested rezoning, noting allowed uses for both R-3 and C-3
Districts. Staff reviewed utility extensions necessary to serve the subject property.
There were two public comments concerning the rezoning expressing reservations
regarding multi-family residences adjacent to existing single-family homes,
maintenance of existing fence lines and allowed commercial uses in C-3.
The Zoning Advisory Commission discussed the request, noting that the R-3 District
allows a range of housing styles but that a blanket R-3 may not be advisable in this
location. The Commission also discussed concern for the proposed C-3 zoning
regarding the allowable uses and setbacks.
Recommendation
By a vote of 7 to 0, the Zoning Advisory Commission recommends that the City
Council approve the request subject to the following conditions:
-----~----_._-~.____.,,___..___._.____..___~______"__.~_'____"___"_' 0._.._.'..".----...--.-....-...- _._._.________.."_____,,__.~

a) That the area designated for residential be designated R-2 Two-Family
Residential District.
b) That the proposed C-3 General Commercial District utilize the rear yard
setback of 20 percent of lot depth regardless of zoning of adjacent
property.
A simple majority vote is needed for the City Council to approve the request with the
conditions recommended by the Zoning Advisory Commission. The owner must also
agree in writing to the conditions. A super majority vote is needed for the City Council
to either eliminate or modify the conditions, and to approve the R-3/C-3 rezoning as
requested by the owners.
Respectfully submitted,

REZONING STAFF REPORT
Zoning Agenda: May 3, 2006
Property Address: 13316 &13500 Derby Grange Road
Property Owner: John W. & Sally Jo Herrig
Applicant: John W. Herrig
Proposed Land Use: Residential/commercial
Proposed Zoning: R-3/C-3/AG
Existing Land Use: Agricultural
Existing Zoning: County A-1
Adjacent Land Use: North - Residential
East - Agricultural
South - Agricultural
West - Residential
Adjacent Zoning: North - County A-1
East - County A-1
South - County A-1
West - County A-1
Former Zoning: 1934 -N/A; 1975 - N/A;
1985 - County A-1
Total Area: 112 Acres
Property History: The subject property has been used for agricultural purposes since its
settlement.
Physical Characteristics: The subject property is characterized by rolling topography
that drains primarily to the northwest.
Concurrence with Comprehensive Plan: The proposed rezoning involves the
Comprehensive Plan's Land Use Element: Goal 1.2, 1.5,2.2,2.3,6.1,6.2,6.3,7.2,
8.5, 10.2 and 10.6.
Impact of Request on:
Utilities: City utilities will have to be extended to the subject property to serve the
proposed developments. City water will be extended along the right-of-way of
Plaza Drive through property owned by Motor City LLClWendell Corey. Sanitary
sewer will also have to be extended northward through the Motor City LLClWendell
Corey property and will have to utilize lift stations and force mains to bring the flow
back toward the City of Dubuque where the City's existing gravity sewer system
can accommodate the additional flows from the proposed development.
Traffic Patterns/Counts: The proposed area for rezoning will be served by an
extension of Plaza Drive and also have access to Derby Grange Road. Based on
2001 IDOT counts, Derby Grange Road carries approximately 650 average daily
trips.

developers to provide these utilities to meet their timetables and a level of service to
serve their proposed developments. The Zoning Advisory Commission will see more
details on the utility and street systems once plats are submitted for the Herrig
development.
The applicants are requesting that the area along side the proposed extension of Plaza
Drive be zoned for C-3 General Commercial, where the balance of the property is
zoned R-3 Moderate Density Multi-Family Residential, which allows a range of housing
styles from single-family to six units in a building to allow apartments, townhouses or
condominiums. The westerly 37 acres is slated to remain as agricultural when it comes
into the City pending further review by the developer.
Planning staff recommends the Zoning Advisory Commission review Section 6-1.1 of
the Zoning Ordinance that establishes criteria for the review of rezoning requests.
