DUBUQUE, Iowa – The City of Dubuque is welcoming applications from residents for the spring session of City Life, Dubuque’s free “citizen academy” program designed to provide residents a hands-on connection with their local government.
City Life offers residents the opportunity to interact with City staff, learn more about City services and programs, participate in tours of City facilities, and learn about different opportunities to be involved in city government. There is no cost to participate. Space is limited to 25 participants.
Applications are due by Friday, April 10. The City Life program consists of six sessions on Tuesday and Thursday evenings (April 21, 23, 28, 30, and May 5, 7) with each session running from 6-9 p.m. Dinner is provided each evening and staff will strive to make accommodations for participants related to transportation, childcare, and/or language needs.
