The Dubuque City Council has agreed to remove any signage related to a Russian city following the suspension of Dubuque’s special relationship with the foreign municipality. City staff will remove any signage providing information on Pyatigorsk, Russia, as a result of Dubuque ending its “sister city” relationship with the city. Pyatigorsk Park, located in Dubuque, will also be renamed. In July, the Sister City Committee of Travel Dubuque agreed to suspend Dubuque’s sister city status with Pyatigorsk, citing Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine as the primary reason for doing so.Â
