Urban Revitalization Program Applications Deadline is Feb. 1

JAN. 29, 2024

The City of Dubuque Housing and Community Development Department is reminding residents and property owners that the deadline for applications to the Urban Revitalization program for property improvements which were completed in 2023 is fast approaching. All applications must be submitted to the City of Dubuque Housing and Community Development Department by Feb. 1, at 5:00 PM.

The Urban Revitalization program encourages the revitalization and improvement of properties within designated areas, promoting investment in residential and commercial properties, and contributing to the overall enhancement of our community. This initiative provides eligible property owners with a property tax exemption on the increased valuation of the property if improvements result in an increase of 10% or more to the property’s assessed value. Residential property owners can qualify for a 10-year exemption, while commercial property owners can receive a 3-year exemption.

For detailed information on eligibility criteria, required documentation, and the application process, please contact the City of Dubuque Housing and Community Development Department or visit: https://cityofdubuque.org/828/Urban-Revitalization-Program.
