Background A responsibility of the City of Dubuque Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) is to conduct ongoing surveys to identify historically and architecturally significant properties and to assist and encourage the nomination of such properties to the NRHP. These survey and registration projects are the framework for the community's preservation program. Since 1979, the City of Dubuque has surveyed and evaluated the historic and architectural significance of 4,728 structures which resulted in registering many of our local and NRHP districts. The Old Town Neighborhood is an area within the Washington Neighborhood that was identified as being eligible for listing on the NRHP during the City's third phase of its ongoing survey and evaluation program in 2004. Enclosed is a map which depicts the Old Town Neighborhood NRHP District in relation to the Washington Neighborhood. NRHP district boundaries are determined by the contiguity of architecturally significant buildings and shared historic contexts. Consequently, at the time the neighborhood was surveyed not all buildings within today's Washington Neighborhood boundary were determined eligible for listing. As part of the nomination process, the selected consultant will conduct additional research and field work to determine if additional buildings can be included within the district. Discussion The importance of surveying and registering properties on the NRHP cannot be overstated. NRHP districts are catalysts for many economic benefits such as State and Federal Historic Tax Credits. These programs have had a profound impact in the revitalization of Dubuque's downtown and historic neighborhoods. NRHP districts also support the community's social and cultural vibrancy goals. Preserving and promoting Washington Neighborhood's architecture is a key brand element of the Washington Neighborhood Marketing Plan. Designating a historic district within the Washington State of Iowa Certified Local Government Grant Application Page 2 Neighborhood is also a strategy of the Washington Neighborhood Revitalize Initiative. NRHP districts do not have any added regulatory impacts for City Staff or property owners. Budget Impact The estimated project cost is $7,517.32. The City is requesting 59% of the total project costs or $4,500 in CLG grant funds. The City is contributing 41 % of the total project cost or $3,017.32 in local cash match from FY2014 CIP #102 -2432, Historic/ Architectural Surveys and Evaluations. Requested Action I request that the City Council approve the enclosed resolution authorizing the Mayor to sign the CLG grant application for the Old Town Neighborhood NRHP nomination.

PROJECT INFORMATION 1. Project Title: OLD TOWN NEIGITBORHOOD HISTORIC DISTRICT 2. Type of project: (Check appropriate category. See the manual for descriptions of project categories) n Planning for Preservation ❑ Reconnaissance or Intensive Survey and Evaluation ® Registration Public Education ❑ Predevelopment ❑ Planning 3. Please provide a brief description of the project (approximately 100 words). Please note this will be used for press releases and reporting to the National Park Service and for press releases. The project is assisting the City of Dubuque with preparing a National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) nomination for the Old Town Neighborhood Historic District. The Old Town Neighborhood Historic District was identified as a potentially eligible NRHP district during the City's third phase of its ongoing survey and evaluation program. The district represents one of Dubuque's oldest predominantly residential neighborhoods with nearly three - quarters of all of the buildings having been constructed prior to 1884. The neighborhood has an amazing history and collection of historic properties worthy or recognition and registration on the NRHP. 4. If this is a survey or nomination project, please provide amount of acreage to be surveyed or nominated and number of resources (contributing and noncontributing) to be surveyed or nominated. There are online calculators which can be used to compute acreage. For example, go to: http:// www. esgnetwork .com /Iawnacrecalc.html Acreage: 38 Number of resources: 311 C. SCOPE OF WORK: Describe the following four (4) items, use additional pages if necessary: 2 • Goal: State the project goal and the activities needed to accomplish that goal. Within your discussion, be sure to (1) specifically identify the historical resource and state its significance; (2) provide an overview of the activities you will complete; (3) explain how the proposed actions will assist the historical resource(s); and (4) describe how the project will have an impact on the local community (neighborhood, town, region, or however you choose to define that community. (I) The goal of the project is to prepare a NRHP nomination for the Old Town Neighborhood Historic District. The Old Town Neighborhood Historic District is one of the oldest residential neighborhoods in the City of Dubuque and located downtown. It was identified as an eligible NRHP district during the City's third phase of its ongoing survey and evaluation program. The district is documented is a Site Inventory Form on file with the State Historic Preservation Office. The Old Town Neighborhood Historic District represents the oldest surviving range of vernacular homes in Dubuque and was determined eligible for listing on the National Register on the basis of its architecture (Criterion C, architecture). The vast majority of the district buildings pre -date 1891 and collectively the district represents a very -well preserved array of vernacular Dubuque stores and residences, with minimal intrusive construction. The district represents the earliest intact original residential neighborhood in Dubuque. The evolving nature of residential architecture is nicely distributed across the district, with the oldest building forms, the Second Empire examples and almost all of the stores being found on White and Jackson streets. The district stands out because of its higher proportion of brick residences, the earlier range of architectural styles and types, and the presence of a number of early church edifices and other institutional buildings. A number of corner storefronts are present as are several industrial buildings on the northeast periphery, the latter being associated with the city's coffin manufacturing. The district represents a stronger sense of time and place. Vernacular building types are prevalent in the district. The breakdown in age of construction for the district is impressive. Approximately 72% of all of the buildings pre -date 1884. 12% date to 1885 -1891 and just 16% post -date 1891. Many of these dates are based upon Sanborn maps which mean many buildings are earlier than their given years of construction would indicate. The relative lack of intrusive, newer properties is also remarkable. There are just nine buildings which are less than 50 years old. (2) A consultant who meets the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualifications and approved by the Iowa Historic Preservation Office will prepare a the NRHP nomination for the Old Town Neighborhood Historic District. Ten years has passed since the Intensive Survey and Evaluation project of the area was completed and documented in the Iowa Site Inventory Form. The consultant will require two visits to Dubuque to conduct archival research and fieldwork to not only fully document historic resources and develop historic contexts to the degree necessary for a NRHP nomination but also document any changes to the district since 3 the time the Site Form was prepared. The research will yield sufficient information to recommend proposed significance or non- significance of the investigated properties and further develop the historic contexts. The consultant will prepare a National Register Form consistent with National Register of Historic Places Bulletin 16A. The document will be presented with proper content, form and order to the State Nominations Review Committee for consideration and recommendation to the National Park Service. (3) Dubuque is a community known for its commitment to historic preservation. The community has embraced preservation as an important component of its sustainability movement, identity, and economy. The City firmly believes survey and registration projects are the foundation for the community's preservation program. The city began surveying and evaluating buildings in the mid 1970's. In 1979 the Architectural Survey of Dubuque was completed. This survey and evaluation project created the groundwork for the City of Dubuque Historic Preservation Program and early historic districts. Dubuque's many architectural themes and historic contexts were later recorded in the 1999 Comprehensive Survey and the 2000 Community Assessment of historical contexts and supporting architectural themes funded in part by the State of Iowa. This multiple property document became the foundation for phased historical and architectural surveys and evaluations of Dubuque's older residential and commercial neighborhoods. Completed in 2000, Phase I of Dubuque's Historical /Architectural Survey /Evaluation encompassed 993 structures in the Couler Valley area. Phase II examined 2,092 structures in the Eagle Point area in 2001. Completed in 2003, Phase III involved 647 structures in and around the central business district, including the Old Main Historic District. Completed in June of 2004, Phase IV evaluated 544 structures in the Jackson Park, Cathedral, West 1 lth Street, and Langworthy Historic Districts. It included nominating the West 1 lth Street and Langworthy Historic Districts to the National Register. Completed in June of 2005, Phase V evaluated 452 structures in the remaining areas of the conservation districts not previously surveyed. Since the Multiple Property Document was completed in 2000 eight (8) of Dubuque's ten (11) National Register Districts were established and twelve (12) of Dubuque's 46 individually listed properties were registered. (4) The City of Dubuque Historic Preservation Commission has been reviewing the City's preservation program. The Commission has prioritized registering a number of districts identified as eligible for listing on the NRHP as a result of past survey and evaluation efforts. Such registration projects are the fruit of these efforts. They serve to further the State of Iowa and City of Dubuque property inventory. As a result, these efforts preserve and enhance historic resources, facilitate the rehabilitation of historic properties, strengthen local and state economies and build community pride and investment. 4 • Coordination: Describe the division of labor, project responsibilities of consultant, local project director, staff, and volunteers.

Describe how undertaking this project will strengthen and enhance commission performance. The City of Dubuque has successfully completed numerous historic preservation projects with funding from the SHPO. The City has established an administrative policy for soliciting proposals from consultants that uses an interdisciplinary team of City Staff, and where appropriate, persons from key groups involved in the project. The City also invites input from community resource agencies, stakeholders groups, the Historic Preservation Commission and the SHOO in producing the best possible work products. The City utilized CLG funds to complete the 2000 community assessment of Dubuque's architectural themes and historical contexts, "Dubuque — The Key City; The Architectural and Historical Resources of Dubuque, Iowa, 1937 - 1955 ". Following this assessment, the City began a phased architectural /historic survey /evaluation of areas of the community using CLG finds. Completed in 2000, Phase I encompassed the Washington /Jackson /Elm neighborhood. Begun in 2000, and completed in 2001, Phase II involved an architectural /historic survey /evaluation of the Lincoln /Rhomberg/Garfield neighborhoods. This project was funded with a Historical Resource Development Program (HRDP) grant. Begun in 2002, and completed in 2003, Phase III involved an architectural /historic survey /evaluation of Dubuque's oldest commercial, residential and industrial neighborhoods in and around the central business district. The City received a CLG grant to fund this project. Begun in 2003, completed in 2004, Phase IV involved preparing and amending the National Register Nominations for Dubuque's four primarily residential historic districts and finalizes the Multiple Property Document. The City received a CLG grant to fund this project. 9 Begun in 2004, completed in 2005, Phase V involved an architectural /historic survey /evaluation of Dubuque's North Main, Fenelon Place and Broadway neighborhoods. The City received a CLG grant to fund this project. The City selected a consultant to assist the Historic Preservation Commission and various City departments with development of a design guidelines manual and a comprehensive streetscape plan for the City's five historic districts. This project, funded with a CLG grant and a Preservation Services Fund grant, was completed in 2002. Begun and completed in 2002, the Historic Preservation Commission developed and held design review training sessions on the Iowa Communications Network (ICN) and locally that were available to the public and other CLG communities. The City received a CLG grant to fund this project. In 2007, the City of Dubuque was awarded a CLG Grant to conduct an archeological investigation of the cultured grounds of the National Register listed Four Mounds Estate. The investigation allowed Four Mounds to plan for future improvements to the estate. The project was successfully completed on time. In February, 2008 the City of Dubuque received a CLG grant to develop the Downtown Design Guidelines manual. The manual provides guidance for guidance for property owners rehabilitating properties in the downtown that are not located in a historic district. The manual also serves as a tool for CLG Staff and the HPC to conduct design review. On June 15, 2009 City Council adopted the Downtown Design Guidelines. All of the above projects were completed in a timely manner. 10 F.
