Partnership with the City of Dubuque

City of Dubuque Distributions

Since it began, the DRA has been committed to returning a portion of its profits to the City of Dubuque each year. We strive to enhance our city’s economic development and improve residents’ quality of life.

When you play in Dubuque, your money stays in Dubuque. The DRA has given more than $141 million back to the city since 1985, including funding for such crucial projects as:

$15.68 million for Riverfront Development
$8.54 million for City Operations and Maintenance
$8.54 million for the Dubuque Industrial Center
$5.32 million for Park Improvements

In addition, we have given $6,547,097 to Dubuque County to make much needed county improvements.
