Zoning Advisory Commission | September 4, 2024

The City of Dubuque's Zoning Advisory Commission met on September 4, 2024, to review several zoning and site plan requests. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a site plan for a new Oil Express building at 2533 Northwest Arterial, which involved traffic and drainage considerations and was approved by the commission. The commission also considered three rezoning requests: one for 27th Locust Street to change from C-3 to C-4 zoning to facilitate a multi-story mixed-use development with parking structures; another for 1090 Radford Road to rezone from commercial (CS) to residential (R-3) to allow for residential development on a portion of the property; and a third for 1142 University Avenue to rezone from C-2 Neighborhood Shopping Center to R-2 Family Residential to convert a commercial property back to residential use. Each rezoning was discussed with attention to neighborhood impact, traffic, and environmental concerns, and all were recommended for approval to proceed to City Council. No direct contract awards or vendor selections were discussed, but these zoning decisions will influence future development and procurement opportunities in the city.
