Good morning, Dubuque.

The Port of Dubuque Marina is now open for the season until Oct.

31 as it welcomes 70 transient slips just in time for Memorial Day weekend, offering gas, a snack store, and access to local attractions such as the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium.

Dubuque earned a spot on the U.S. News and World Report Top 250 Places to Live ranking, placing 208th overall and fifth-best in Iowa.

The report measured quality of life, job market strength, commute times, and household income.

After counterfeit tokens were discovered, Dubuque Farmers’ Market halted wooden token sales and offered exchanges for temporary plastic tokens today, with DuTrac Community Credit Union & Farm Bureau Financial Services working to prepare a permanent system.

The U.S. House approved a bill for year-round E15 fuel sales that may boost corn demand and support local ethanol jobs while offering drivers lower gas prices (though some worry about fuel mileage), a change that could reshape Iowa’s energy landscape.

The city of Dubuque launched an aquatics feasibility study to plan new investments in pools — splash pads and water amenities.

A focus group will meet Wed, May 27 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 at the Jule Operations and Training Center with further public input scheduled over the summer.
