Budget Director Jennifer Larson recommends that the City Council set a public hearing
for March 5, 2014, on the Fiscal Year 2015 City budget, operating and capital
improvement program, for the City of Dubuque.
The recommended budget has been amended to include funding to continue the Transit
Shopping Circulator bus route at a cost of $97,221. In addition, Transit passenger fare
revenue has been recommended to increase $137,356 in support of continuing the
Shopping Circulator bus route. The remainder of revenue not needed in Fiscal Year
2015 to fund the Shopping Circulator bus route will be carried forward to Fiscal Year
2016 and 2017 to cover future costs of the bus routes. The last fixed route fare increase
was in 1986. The last para- transit fare increase was in 2005.
Public Works Director Don Vogt is modifying his budget request for Fiscal Year 2015
related to the purchase of replacement solid waste vehicles. The original
recommendation was to purchase compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles, instead of
bio- diesel vehicles, as the City currently uses. The CIP had two vehicles in Fiscal Year
2015, one in Fiscal Year 2016, one in Fiscal Year 2017 and two in Fiscal Year 2018.
The City would still purchase two bio- diesel solid waste vehicles in Fiscal Year 2015.
Subsequent research has revealed that the Municipal Services Center (MSC) will have
to be modified in order to house CNG - fueled vehicles of any type. The MSC's original
designer is currently researching Dubuque and Iowa building codes to verify whether
they are more stringent than federal code regarding in- building storage and
maintenance of CNG - fueled vehicles
The second factor is the expiration of the federal tax subsidy for vendors of natural gas
vehicle fuel on the 1st of January. This tax subsidy had been in effect for a number of
years and had reduced the selling price of CNG vehicle fuel by up to fifty (50) cents per
gallon. While there is the expectation that this federal subsidy will eventually be
restored, especially after President Obama endorsed natural gas as "the bridge fuel that
can power our economy" in his State of the Union speech two weeks ago, the minimum
$1.54 per gallon price differential between CNG vehicle fuel and B20 diesel fuel needed
to offset the additional upfront purchase cost of a CNG - fueled collection vehicle no
longer exists.
If the yet -to -be determined modifications to the Municipal Services Center prove viable
and acceptable and are subsequently implemented in Fiscal Year 2016, staff would
then solicit bid proposals later in Fiscal Year 2016 for both diesel - fueled and CNG -
fueled collection vehicles. At that time, staff would apply a life -cycle cost analysis to
each of the bid proposals to determine which purchase proves to be the most
economical option. That process would be repeated in ensuing years.
The $94,698 reduction in cost of the replacement solid waste vehicles reduces the FY
2015 capital budget for solid waste. In addition, the recommended fee increase for solid
waste will be reduced from $0.64 (5.02 %) to $0.50 (3.92 %). The monthly cost for solid
waste is recommended to decrease from the originally proposed $13.38 per month to
the revised $13.24 per month.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.

TO: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
FROM: Don Vogt, Public Works Director D7V
SUBJECT: FY15 -FY2O CNG -Fuel Solid Waste Collection Vehicles Budget Proposal
DATE: February 12, 2014
INTRODUCTION
The purposes of this memorandum are to provide information and recommend a new
course of action regarding the Public Works Department's budget request to purchase
two compressed natural gas (CNG) solid waste collection vehicles in FY15.
BACKGROUND
On October 4, 2013, I submitted two FY15 -FY2O budget proposals addressing the
replacement of solid waste collection vehicles in the future. My primary
recommendation was to purchase conventional, diesel- engine vehicles in the coming
years (two vehicles at $130,153 per unit in FY15). However, I also submitted an
alternative proposal for your consideration — CNG- fueled collection vehicles (two
vehicles at $177,502 per unit in FY15).
DISCUSSION
My alternate proposal was inspired primarily by what I learned at the Solid Waste
Association of North America (SWANA) national conference the previous month. At the
conference, I learned that more CNG - fueled collection vehicles had been purchased in
calendar 2012 by private and public sector collection managers than gasoline and
diesel - fueled units combined. I also learned that the primary reasons cited by those
service providers were economics and clean air regulations. Upon my return to
Dubuque, and with my large truck FY15 -FY2O budget request due within days, I
prepared and submitted both purchase options for your consideration. At the time,
based on a fuel cost differential of $2.00 per gallon, projected fuel cost savings alone
would have more than offset the initial higher purchase cost of the CNG collection
vehicles. However, since October, two factors have arisen that now cause me to
recommend that the two collection vehicles scheduled to be purchased in FY15 be
conventional units.
First of all, subsequent research has revealed that the Municipal Services Center (MSC)
will have to be modified in order to house CNG- fueled vehicles of any type. The MSC's
original designer is currently researching Dubuque and Iowa building codes to verify
whether they are more stringent than federal code regarding in- building storage and
maintenance of CNG- fueled vehicles. Once he has verified what modifications would
have to be made to our facility, and at what cost, I will then submit those proposed
building modifications to you for your consideration as part of the FY16 -FY21 capital
improvement project budget process in October.
The second factor that has influenced me to withdraw my CNG collection vehicle
recommendation for FY15 is the expiration of the federal tax subsidy for vendors of
natural gas vehicle fuel on the 1st of January. This tax subsidy had been in effect for a
number of years and had reduced the selling price of CNG vehicle fuel by up to fifty (50)
cents per gallon. While there is the expectation that this federal subsidy will eventually
be restored, especially after President Obama endorsed natural gas as "the bridge fuel
that can power our economy" in his State of the Union speech two weeks ago, the
minimum $1.54 per gallon price differential between CNG vehicle fuel and B20 diesel
fuel needed to offset the additional upfront purchase cost of a CNG - fueled collection
vehicle no longer exists.
In October of 2006, then - Resource Management Coordinator Paul Schultz and I
recommended that the City consider purchasing hybrid - powered collection vehicles as
early as FY09. While some citizens expressed concern at that time regarding the
higher purchase cost of the hybrid collection vehicles, the concept was endorsed by the
City Council. In turn, Paul and I assured you and the City Council that bid proposals
would be solicited for both hybrid - powered and conventional collection vehicles in future
years — and that future purchases would be based on availability, prices, and judged
economic sustainability at the time of each bid letting. To date, no hybrid - powered
collection vehicles have been purchased. I recommend the same approach for future
purchases. If the yet -to -be determined modifications to the MSC prove viable and
acceptable to you and the City Council in next year's budget process, and are
subsequently implemented in FY16, we would then solicit bid proposals later in FY16 for
both diesel - fueled and CNG - fueled collection vehicles. At that time, we would apply a
life -cycle cost analysis to each of the bid proposals to determine which purchase proves
to be the most economical option. If acceptable to you and the City Council, that
process would be repeated in ensuing years.
ACTION STEP
Your consideration of my recommendation is requested.

Dubuque, IA 52001
The City of Dubuque, dba The Jule Transit, provides fixed -route and paratransit services for the citizens of Dubuque and
the scope services provided to the public have increased along with the cost to provide said services.
In the past 5 years, with the support of the Transit Advisory Board and the City Council, The Jule has applied for and
received multi -year grants to expand the service areas and increase the frequency of transit service to high demand
locations in the City of Dubuque. The Smarter Travel Project in combination with The Jule's Intelligent Transportation
System (ITS) provided Jule staff with the information needed to restructure the routes for increased efficiency. The goal
of this restructure and providing additional transit services was and continues to be focused on improving access to
employment, education and recreation opportunities for the citizens of Dubuque.
These system -wide changes were funded by grants from the Iowa Clean Air Attainment Program (ICAAP) which has a
limit of three years of funding for each route. The improvements that have been made due to the addition of these
grant- funded routes (Shopping Circulator, Nightrider, Express and Grey Loop) have been system -wide and the removal
of even one of these routes would have negative system -wide impacts. These negative impacts include increased trip
length (return to most trips taking 60 minutes or more), removal of entire service areas, and reduced frequency of
service to most service areas.
In order to maintain the current improved level of service funded through grant programs for the last several years, a
fare increase is proposed.
The following increases to both fixed -route and paratransit fares occur during Fiscal Year 2015 and Fiscal Year 2016 and
are proposed:
Fixed Route Fare Increases
Paratransit Fare Increases
$1.50
Full Fare

If approved, the proposed fixed -route and paratransit fare increases and related revisions take effect on July 1, 2014.
The Transit Advisory Board supports the proposed fare increase and recommends that City Council set a public hearing
regarding the proposed fare increase.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This annual project provides for the replacement of eight solid waste collection vehicles from Fiscal Year 2015 through Fiscal Year 2020. They would replace current
vehicles as follows: Fiscal Year 2015 ( #3401 and #3405); Fiscal Year 2016 ( #3402); Fiscal Year 2017 ( #3407); Fiscal Year 2018 ( #3403 and #3404); Fiscal Year 2019
(no replacements); and Fiscal Year 2020 ( #3412 and #3413). These trucks will be eight to fifteen years old in their proposed replacement years. Their proposed work
lives meet or exceed industry norms. Bid solicitations for hybrid - powered solid waste collection vehicles are not proposed. While on initial impression hybrid - powered
collection trucks would be appear to be a likely choice since their frequent stop and go driving would capture braking energy to provide alternative power, private and
public sector service providers are now turning away from this prohibitively- expensive option and instead purchasing vehicles which run on domestically - produced and
cleaner burning compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel. In calendar 2012, just over half of all new collection vehicles purchased in the USA were /are CNG - fueled. One
CNG refueling station is already in operation within two blocks of the City's Municipal Services Center, with others scheduled to be opened in the city over the next year.
JUSTIFICATION
The eight trucks scheduled /proposed for purchase are used to collect and haul refuse, compostables, large items and recyclables. While fuel cost savings ( @$2 /gallon X
3,875 gallons per year per truck) and higher eventual trade -in value are projected to more than offset the higher initial purchase cost of the CNG - fueled vehicles, these
vehicles would also substantially reduce the carbon footprint of the City's solid waste collection fleet and reduce the City fleet's reliance on imported oil - thereby helping
ensure continuity of service during times of crises in the Mideast.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS
This project implements the Comprehensive Plan's Environmental Quality Goal Five: To assure appropriate control, collection, disposal, and per capita reduction of
stormwater, wastewater, solid wastes, and household hazardous wastes, objective 5.5) Promote a sanitary environment through the proper collection and disposal of
solid wastes in accordance with environmental and aesthetic standards; and, Goal Six: To promote residential and business programs that reduce, reuse, recycle, and
safely dispose of the community's discard stream, objective 6.1) Consider the expansion of recycling efforts through increased participation and new materials, e.g.
electronics. This project also implements the Comprehensive Plan's City Fiscal Goal One: To minimize the impact of economic swings on the City's operating budget,
objective 4.1) Promote economic development efforts to expand and diversify the property tax base and to improve and /or implement "growth" revenues for the City.
RELATIONSHIP TO SUSTAINABILITY PRINCIPLES
This project implements the Sustainable Principles of Resource Management, Healthy Air and Smart Energy Use.
