Manual of Downtown Design Guidelines
The City of Dubuque, Iowa 
Submittal Deadline: April 4, 2008

The City of Dubuque, Iowa is soliciting proposals from qualified
consulting firms to provide professional services to create a Manual of
Downtown Design Guidelines with two components: (1) architectural design
guidelines, and (2) streetscape/landscape design guidelines.

All work on the project must conform to the Secretary of the Interior's
Standards and Guidelines. The project is anticipated to begin in April,
2008, with completion in March, 2009. The estimated budget for this
project is $65,000. $50,000 is budgeted for consultant services and the
remainder of the budget will be allocated towards administrative,
printing and distribution costs. 

Downtown Dubuque contains many significant institutional, commercial,
and industrial buildings that reflect a variety of styles and materials.
Many buildings house a mix of uses, with first floor retail/office uses
and housing on the upper floors. The historic downtown neighborhoods
include two- and three-story buildings that are still fully residential.
In addition, large brick warehouses form a historic
mill-working/warehouse district adjacent to Downtown. 

The Request for Proposals is posted under Bids/RFPs on the City's
website, www.cityofdubuque.org <http://www.cityofdubuque.org/> .
Proposals are due on Friday, April 4, 2008. For more information,
