(small or lazge) that facilitated historic preservation in your community.
a. Historic preservation planning. Examples include the development or revision of an

pages if needed). The Historic Preservation Commission conducted a Planning Session
in January 2006 to identify key issues and strengthen historic preservation in the City of
Dubuque.
b. Provided technical assistance on historic preservation issues or projects. Examples
include working with individual homeowners, business owners, institutions to identify
appropriate treatments and find appropriate materials, reseazch advice, etc. (use
additional pages if needed) The Commission consulted with individual property owners
and developers on issues including, but not limited to funding sources, NPS Preservation
Briefs, Secretary of the Interiors Standards jor the Treatment of Historic Buildings, and

activities, etc. (use additional pages if needed). City gave an educational walking tour to

"Architectural Days Program ". Both events offered professional speakers, presentations

additional ordinances or resolutions that impact historic properties, please attach copies of the
amendments and new ordinances or resolutions. The Dubuque City Council amended the
Historic Preservation Ordinance to allow for the Individual Historic Designation of properties
deemed consistent with the nomination criteria outlined in the attached ordinance amendment.
The designation of individual historic properties makes them eligible for local historic
preservation funding. The intent of the amendment is to identify potential future districts,
promote the preservation of historic properties and provide local financial resources for historic
properties not contained in an established district.
The City of Dubuque Code of Ordinance was amended to extend Demolition by Neglect to
properties located in Conservation Districts. The amendment provides additional protection and
local funding resources for those properties contained within a Conservation District.

2006, please attach a copy. No new or revised design standards and/or guidelines were
developed.

commission. No new matter may be considered.

and followed the guidelines established by law and the historic preservation
Ordinance No. _ - O6
Page 27
ordinance (this chapter), and whether the commission's action was patently arbitrary
