TO:
Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
FROM:
Laura Carstens, Planning Services Manager
RE:
Development Moratorium for the Iowa 32 (Southwest Arterial) Corridor
Introduction
This memo transmits a request for the City Council to extend the development
moratorium in the Iowa 32 (Southwest Arterial) Corridor. Attached to this memo is an
ordinance and drawings showing the moratorium area.
Discussion
The City of Dubuque and the IDOT are engaged in a study of the Southwest Arterial
Corridor, which will include right-of-way acquisition for the preferred alignment.
Without a moratorium, development could occur in the Southwest Arterial Corridor that
might be incompatible with the future alignment of the highway. To avoid this situation,
the City of Dubuque established a development moratorium for the Southwest Arterial
Corridor in 2003-2005.
To extend this development moratorium, the City Council must approve an amendment
to the Chapter 11 (Buildings and Building Regulations) of the City Code for permits.
The ordinance amending Chapter 11 is attached for City Council consideration.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached ordinance amending
Chapter 11 to extend the development moratorium in the Southwest Arterial Corridor to
July 1, 2007.
