The City of Dubuque will host an informational meeting for the public to review and provide input on the Chaplain Schmitt Island Development Plan on Tuesday evening, Nov. 12, at the Jule Operations and Training Center on Kerper Boulevard. The meeting will begin at 6:30 with a short presentation by City staff and then an open house format until 8.
The Dubuque City Council has identified Chaplain Schmitt Island as a high priority for several years. Prior planning efforts in 2014 and 2017 created the Chaplain Schmitt Island Master Plan, Placemaking Plan, and Design Guidelines for the island.
The development plan will be considered for adoption by the City Council after review by the Long-Range Planning Commission and the Parks and Recreation Commission.
