The July 2018 GREATER BURLINGTON PARTNERSHIP NEWSLETTER VOL. 98 NO. 7 Partnership Kay Sackville Breuer PRESIDENT & CEO’S LETTER Vice President 319-208-0041 [email protected] Belinda Colwell Office Manager The $115 Million 319-208-0042 [email protected] Mandate Steve Frevert by Jason Hutcheson Downtown Partners, Inc. Exec. Dir. 319-208-0056 [email protected]

Trash has proven to be a pretty big deal. The very idea that a government Cindy Henry policy could change the decades old practice of handling trash Customer Relations Specialist 319-208-0052 combined with the potential for a $2+ increase in monthly fees has [email protected] caught the ire of the public. I suppose public interest in a topic such as trash should be higher than many issues, as garbage impacts each household, and it is something people Jeremy Hess can easily understand. Dir. of Economic Development 319-208-0050 Garbage isn’t our problem, however. Storm water is, and I’ll tell you why. [email protected] Burlington has been under a consent order from the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) in Jason Hutcheson compliance with the federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The consent order is driving the President & CEO community to separate storm water drainage from the sanitary sewer system to prevent raw sewage from 319-208-0043 jhutcheson@greaterburlingtoncom dumping into the Mississippi River during major rain events. On the surface, preventing raw sewage from entering our river is a noble cause and one that I could Sherri Krause support. When the two systems are combined, all of the water that enters the sewer has to be treated. Chief Financial Officer 319-208-0044 During major rain events, the system is overloaded and bypasses treatment to dump directly into the [email protected] river. With a separated system, only the sewage needs to be treated, and the storm water can safely flow into the river just as if it were draining there naturally. Chelsea Lerud Convention & Visitors Bureau Let’s talk about the cost. To date, the City of Burlington has spent more than $20 million to begin the Exec. Dir. 319-208-0045 initial phases of compliance. Sewer bills have already doubled over the last decade and are projected to [email protected] continue increasing at about 4% per year for the foreseeable future. The price tag of the work yet tobe Brenda Levitt done: $115,000,000. The share by each man, woman, and child living in our community is $4,600. Add Graphic Designer construction cost inflation and financing charges on top of that figure. 319-208-0047 [email protected] Simply put, our community cannot pay this bill. Even worse, the $115 million does not cover upgrades to our aged sewer infrastructure. It simply covers the separation piece. Rachel Lindeen Event Coordinator What about clean water infrastructure needs? How about our roads and bridges? Should storm water 319-208-0046 alone eat through all of our community’s available infrastructure dollars? [email protected] While I support efforts to clean Iowa’s water, I am concerned about the cost of doing so. How will Emily Pattee someone on a fixed income pay for unending sewer bill increases? How much of this liability will be Welcome Center Manager pushed to the business community? 319-752-8731 [email protected] At this point in time, few federal policy issues have a greater impact to the City of Burlington’s balance sheet. Dustin Roth Marketing & Communications Dir. As a community with aging demographics, our ability to pay for the unfunded mandates should be taken 319-208-0048 into consideration by both the EPA and the DNR. There has to be a solution that improves our water [email protected] quality without bankrupting the city. During our region’s recent Washington DC Summit, meetings with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce proved valuable. The organization is interested in our cause and believes our case study can lead to a better policy balance in cost-conscious water quality legislation. Burlington is not the only community struggling to implement these unfunded mandates. SUBSCRIPTIONS: Price is $24, which is included in annual events fees. Non-members: $4 per issue.

What was once a massive failed Caterpillar project became the vast modern business park that our industries enjoy today. As Flint Ridge This community has a history of placing Business Park nears capacity, a great deal of research and study has gone into answering the high value on economic and community question… “What’s next?” development. Those efforts were taken One answer that has become painfully clear is that a similar 300+ acre industrial site is nearly to a new level in 2009 with the launch of impossible to duplicate. Between increased land prices (if contiguous parcels can even Partnering for the Future.

The current plan of work facilities, “smaller and smarter” seems to be the answer when it comes to inventory for is nearing completion, and efforts are industrial sites. An example is the recently acquired industrial ground in West Burlington underway to assemble a plan covering formerly known as the Raider Pre-Cast property on North Gear Avenue. This 40 acre site 2019 - 2023. has been essentially overgrown and vacant for over a decade; it is a great example of an underutilized property ripe for redevelopment. With infrastructure already in place, it’s an A draft plan has been assembled, and a excellent opportunity to create a smaller industrial park that allows for the accomplishment feasibility study was conducted during of the primary goals of Economic Development… 1.

Feedback on the draft plan was received, While final planning isn’t complete, preliminary drawings illustrate 4 - 5 developable and there were a couple of key takeaways industrial lots accessed by a public road and cul-de-sac. There is additional work to do, but from the report: one thing is certain - without inventory for industry, we aren’t even in the game. • Although the community faces challenges, there is strong optimism within the business community regarding the future. • There are significant concerns regarding the current workforce gap, and many investors feel the Partnership needs to be more aggressive in improving the available talent pool. • Some feel as though the Partnership overprioritizes tourism as a part of its overall mission. • There was significant praise for the transformation of Downtown Burlington over the last decade. The draft plan is currently being revised with a goal of finalizing the plan of work by the end of summer.

The Future of Highway 61 Anyone driving north on Highway 61 can see the significant progress on the expansion of the four-lane corridor. The Highway 61 Coalition has long advocated for the expansion, and last month, the group received an update from Iowa Department of Transportation Mark Lowe in the Partnership offices. Here are a few key takeaways from the meeting: • Federal highway funding is uncertain after just a few short years. However, from a financial programming perspective, we are likely to see Highway 61 Corridor complete by 2030. The timeline could shift forward or backward based upon federal dollars. • A study on Roosevelt Avenue is nearly complete. The draft study shows capacity on Roosevelt will exceed demand for the foreseeable future, decreasing the likelihood of the need for a bypass or major structural change to Burlington’s primary road. • Advocacy is important. There are many highways in Iowa, and every city thinks its highway should be the priority. Although the DOT is committed to the completion of the 61 Corridor, the Coalition was urged to continue pushing commission members. The needs of Iowa’s transportation system exceed the available dollars, so difficult decisions will always have to be made.

About the Coalition: The Highway 61 Coalition is made up of business and government leaders from Southeast Iowa. Periodic meetings are held in the Partnership office, and annual dues by Coalition members fund the organization’s efforts. To learn more about the Coalition or to become a member, contact Brenda Levitt.
