City-GVSU Joint Permit-Offshore Buoy Project.
Arn Boezaart, Director GVSU/MAREC, explained that in order to place a research buoy in Lake
Michigan, GVSU/MAREC has requested that the City of Muskegon officially apply for a permit
with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality
Water Programs. GVSU/MAREC is unable to apply directly since the applicant must be a
riparian owner on the Lake Michigan waterfront. However, all application costs and staff time
needed to submit the permit will be absorbed by GVSU/MAREC. Since the City of Muskegon
and MAREC have formed a successful partnership, it is requested that this request be approved.

Motion by Commissioner Shepherd, second by Commissioner Wierengo to accept the
recommendation from staff to participate with GVSU/MAREC in submitting an
application to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the MDEQ Water Programs to allow
for an offshore buoy to conduct wind assessment research on Lake Michigan.

ROLL VOTE:  Ayes: Shepherd, Spataro, Wierengo, Wisneski, Carter, and Gawron

MOTION PASSES

Discussion on Plowing of Alleys.
There are 300 miles of streets in the City. We attempt to accommodate all of our citizen’s. The
alleys are plowed by request and those requests have increased. We do accommodate the
property owners by allowing parking on the terrace during the winter snow months. It was asked
if the 2-6 a.m. parking ban is necessary. In reply it was stated that it gives the plow trucks an
advantage by having no cars on the street and also the cars will not have snow plowed around
them and possible damage done to the vehicles.

Adjournment
Motion by Commissioner Carter, seconded by Commissioner Shepherd to adjourn at 5:58
p.m.

       B. Purchase of Police Patrol Bicycles. PUPLIC SAFETY
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The Director of Public Safety is requesting permission to
purchase 12 new police patrol bicycles. These bicycles will replace 12 Trek
Police Bicycles that are currently in use and were purchased in the late 90’s.

   •   The Bicycle Rack – 1790 Roberts, Muskegon
   •   Breakaway Bicycle – 4741 Harvey, Muskegon
   •   Village Bike & Fitness – 450 Baldwin, Jenison
I am recommending the purchase of the Trek Police Bike from Breakaway
Bicycle. Breakaway is the only business who submitted a bid for the Trek. While
this is the most expensive model of those bid ($1,000 per bicycle), this bicycle is
built specifically for the rigors of police service. This is evidenced by the length of
time that the current bicycles have been in service. This bicycle is complete
and no “extras” need to be purchased.

This purchase will be funded by the Criminal Forfeiture Account.

Department is requesting that a resolution be adopted for the City of Muskegon
for all MSHDA NSP1, CDBG, LEAD and HOME Investment Act Program activities.

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:           As an Equal Housing Opportunity participant
jurisdiction, the City of Muskegon supports Fair Housing Law and Title VIII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1968. We are requesting to approve the authorizing resolution
and direct the Mayor and Clerk to sign the resolution.
      D. Approval of Sale of City-Owned Property at 1585 Hudson. COMMUNITY
         & NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To approve the resolution and instruct the Community
and Neighborhood Services department to complete the sales transaction
between Ms. Suzanne Hershey for the vacant property at 1585 Hudson, which is
part of the City’s Neighborhood Stabilization Program through the Michigan
State Housing Development Authority Office of Community Development. This is
a non-buildable lot. Ms. Hershey is the adjacent property owner to 1585 Hudson.
As a part of the City’s continuous neighborhood redevelopment efforts, 1585
Hudson was purchased and demolished with Neighborhood Stabilization
Program funds as a blighted structure.

      B. Consideration of Bids for Isabella Avenue, Peck to Terrace (S-654 and
         W-724). ENGINEERING
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Award the construction contract to replace water and
sewer lines in Isabella Avenue from Peck Street to Terrace Street to McCormick
Sand Inc., out of Twin Lake, MI. McCormick Sand is the lowest responsible bidder
for this project with a total bid price of $374,698.20.
While completing the Bid Tabulation for this project, it was discovered that
McCormick transposed the bid price on two line items. Line items numbered
four (4) and five (5) had their bid prices transposed thus making their Bid
Tabulation appear higher than the amount bid. Staff and contractor discussed
and corrected the miscalculation, and it was determined that McCormick
remained the lowest responsible bidder.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The construction cost of $374,698.20 plus engineering cost
which is estimated at an additional 15%.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None at this time as this project appears on the
2010 – 2011 budget.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Award the contract to McCormick Sand Inc.
Motion by Commissioner Spataro, second by Commissioner Wierengo to
approve the bid for Isabella Avenue from Peck to Terrace to McCormick Sand
Inc.

RE:            ChargePoint Station- Muskegon: Master Services
               Subscription Agreement


SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The Federal Government has contracted with
ChargePoint (Coulomb Technologies, Inc) to install 297 electric vehicle charge
stations in Michigan by October 1, 2011. Thus far, they have installed 70 stations.
The West Michigan area will receive several stations, including over 20 in Muskegon
County. Currently, there is a ChargePoint station at MAREC. Other municipalities
are also having them installed (as well as institutions and businesses). The City has
designated two parking spaces in the Western Avenue Parking Lot to be used for a
station. We are in discussions with the Arena Management in this regard.

FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Federal Government will pay for the ChargePoint station
equipment. The City will receive a grant in the amount of $2,500 from the Lou
Eklund Fund at the Community Foundation for Muskegon County for the station
installation (estimated to be $2,000; any funds remaining can be applied towards
future maintenance fees). It is recommended to allow free access for the electrical
charge for the first year. If it is determined that the station is being well used, the City
can start charging for its use. If the City charges for the station use, there will also be
a $.50 per transaction fee and a 7.5% charge per total usage fee from ChargePoint
for administration (they will not charge anything if the City does not charge anything-
see attached e-mail from ChargePoint).

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the “ChargePoint Master Services
Subscription Agreement” between the City of Muskegon and ChargePoint/Coulomb
Technologies, Inc. and authorize the Mayor’s signature.
                                                                                                        Page 1 of 2

  Thank you, Kim. My understanding from my meeting with Len and Fabio, yesterday, is that
  ChargePoint will provide the equipment for the station and the City will pay for installation.
  Providing the City does not charge the customer for electricity, there will be no charge from
  ChargePoint, either (until January 2014). If we do charge a fee, there will also be a $.50 per
  transaction fee, plus 7.5% session fee from ChargePoint. This charge will be administered by
  ChargePoint and the fee the City charges will be reimbursed through ChargePoint. In addition,
  there is a $149/yr maintenance fee, but this fee will not go into effect until January 2014. In the
  meantime, ChargePoint will provide the maintenance for the station. In January 2014, there will
  also be a warranty fee, but this fee is not yet determined. If the City chose not to participate
  after 2013, we could refrain from making the payments to ChargePoint without additional
  consequences. Although I do not foresee this happening, as I believe the charge stations will
  become a success by that time, I need to make sure the City interests are attended to.

  Providing the above statements are true, I plan to take the Agreement to our City Commission
  on Feb. 22.

  Cathy

         4.2     INVOICING AND PAYMENT. Subscriber shall provide the Network Operator with valid
and up to date credit card information if Subscriber is subscribing for ChargePoint Services online
through the applicable Network Web Portal. In all other cases, payment of Subscription Fees shall be
made under the terms of any accepted Purchase Order pursuant to a method of payment reasonably
acceptable to the Network Operator. Where Subscriber provides credit card information to the Network
Operator through such Network Web Portal for the payment of Subscription Fees, Subscriber hereby
authorizes the Network Operator to charge such credit card for all Purchased ChargePoint Services for
the initial Subscription Term and the automatic renewal of Subscription Term(s) as set forth in Section

may condition future Subscription renewals and acceptance of Purchase Orders on payment terms other
than those set forth herein.
        4.4      ACCELERATION AND SUSPENSION OF CHARGEPOINT SERVICES. If any amount owing
by Subscriber under this Agreement for Subscription Fees for Purchased ChargePoint Services or under
any other agreement between the Network Operator and Subscriber is more than thirty (30) days
overdue (or, in the event that Subscriber has authorized the Network Operator to charge the amount
owing to Subscriber’s credit card and payment under such credit card has been declined, more than 5
days has passed since Subscriber has received notice from the Network Operator of such event), the
Network Operator may, without otherwise limiting the Network Operator’s rights or remedies,
accelerate Subscriber’s unpaid fee obligations under such agreements so that all such obligations
become immediately due and payable, and suspend the use by Subscriber of the Purchased ChargePoint
Services until such amounts are paid in full.

Taxes or Regulatory Charges for which Subscriber is responsible, the appropriate amount shall be
invoiced to Subscriber in accordance with this Section 4 and deducted by the Network Operator from
Session Fees, unless Subscriber has otherwise provided the Network Operator with a valid tax or

Agreement and the alleged breach remains unremedied at the expiration of such period, or (ii) the
Network Operator becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding related to
insolvency, receivership, liquidation or an assignment for the benefit of creditors. This Agreement may
be terminated by Subscriber upon the voluntary deactivation and removal from registration via the
applicable Network Web Portal of all Networked Charging Stations owned by Subscriber and its Affiliates
from the ChargePoint Network, at which time this Agreement shall terminate effective immediately;
provided, that Subscriber shall not be entitled to any refund of prepaid Subscription Fees as a result of
such termination.
          8.5     REFUND OR PAYMENT UPON TERMINATION. Upon any termination of this Agreement
for cause by Subscriber pursuant to Section 8.4(b)(i), or (ii) or the election of the Network Operator to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.4(a)(iii), the Network Operator shall refund to
Subscriber the pro-rata portion of any pre-paid Subscription Fees for the remainder of the applicable
Subscription Term for all Subscriptions after the effective date of termination. Upon any termination for
cause by the Network Operator pursuant to Section 8.4(a)(i), (ii) or (iv) or upon the voluntary removal
from registration and activation of all of Subscriber’s Network Charging Stations from the ChargePoint
Network, Subscriber shall pay any unpaid Subscription Fees covering the remainder of the Subscription
Term for any accepted Purchase Orders. In no event shall any termination relieve Subscriber of any
liability for the payment of Subscription Fees or Session Processing Fees for any period prior to the
termination date.

9.      AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION. No modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement
shall be effective unless in writing and either signed or electronically accepted by the party against
whom the amendment, modification or waiver is to be asserted; provided, that subject to any applicable
Purchase Order the Network Operator may change the Session Authorization Fee and/or the Session
Processing Fee as provided in Schedule 1.
10.      WAIVER. The failure of either Party at any time to require performance by the other Party of
any obligation hereunder will in no way affect the full right to require such performance at any time
thereafter. The waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision hereof will not constitute a waiver of
the provision itself. The failure of either Party to exercise any of its rights provided in this Agreement
will not constitute a waiver of such rights. No waiver will be effective unless in writing and signed by an
authorized representative of the Party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced. Any such
waiver will be effective only with respect to the specific instance and for the specific purpose given.
11.      FORCE MAJEURE. Except with respect to payment obligations, neither the Network Operator
nor Subscriber will be liable for failure to perform any of its obligations hereunder due to causes beyond
such party’s reasonable control and occurring without its fault or negligence (a “Force Majeure Event”).
A Force Majeure Event will include, but not be limited to, fire, flood, earthquake or other natural
disaster (irrespective of such party’s condition of any preparedness therefore); war, embargo; riot;
strike; labor action; any lawful order, decree, or other directive of any government authority that
prohibits a party from performing its obligations under this Agreement; material shortages; shortage of
transport; and failures of suppliers to deliver material or components in accordance with the terms of
their contracts.
11.     APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement will be construed, and performance will be determined,
according to the laws of the State of California without reference to such state’s principles of conflicts of
law (the “Applicable Law”) and the state and federal courts of California shall have exclusive jurisdiction
over any claim arising under this Agreement.
12.     WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Each Party hereby waives any right to jury trial in connection with any
action or litigation arising out of this Agreement.
13.       SURVIVAL. Those provisions dealing with the Intellectual Property Rights of CTI, limitations of
liability and disclaimers, restrictions of warranty, Applicable Law and those other provisions which by
their nature or terms are intended to survive the termination of this Agreement will remain in full force
and effect as between the Parties hereto as contemplated hereby.
14.     SEVERABILITY. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, if any term or condition of this
Agreement or the application thereof to either Party will to any extent be determined jointly by the
Parties or by any judicial, governmental or similar authority, to be invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to this Agreement, the Parties
or circumstances other than those as to which it is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, will not
be affected thereby. If, however such invalidity or unenforceability will, in the reasonable opinion of
either Party cause this Agreement to fail of its intended purpose and the Parties cannot by mutual
agreement amend this Agreement to cure such failure, either Party may terminate this Agreement for
cause as provided herein above.
15.     ASSIGNMENT. Subscriber may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by
operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Network Operator (not to be
unreasonably withheld). In the event of any purported assignment in breach of this Section 15, the
Network Operator shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement upon written


Page 13 of 17

notice given to Subscriber. In the event of such a termination, Subscriber shall pay any unpaid
Subscription Fees covering the remainder of the Subscription Term for any accepted Purchase Orders. In
no event shall any termination relieve Subscriber of any liability for the payment of Subscription Fees or
Session Processing Fees for any period prior to the termination date. Subject to the foregoing, this
Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted
assigns CTI and the Network Operator may each assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Within ninety (90) days of any such assignment, CTI or the Network Operator, as the case may be, shall
provide written notice to Subscriber of the fact of such assignment.
16.     NO AGENCY OR PARTNERSHIP CREATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. CTI, in the performance of this
Agreement, and in its role as the Network Operator, is an independent contractor. In performing its
obligations under this Agreement, CTI shall maintain complete control over its employees, its
subcontractors and its operations. No partnership, joint venture or agency relationship is intended by
CTI and any Subscriber to be created by this Agreement.
17.      ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, Schedule 1 and the applicable Purchase Orders of
Subscriber contain the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes and cancels all previous
and contemporaneous agreements, negotiations, commitments, understandings, representations and
writings in respect to the subject matter hereof. To the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Purchase Order, this Agreement shall prevail.
Notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein, no terms or conditions stated in any other
documentation (excluding Schedule 1 and Purchase Orders) shall be incorporated into or form any part
of this Agreement, and all such purported terms and conditions shall be null and void.

18.     COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same
document.

To:         Honorable Mayor & City Commission
From:       Planning & Economic Development Department
RE:         Shoreline Spectacular Request- Labor Day
            Weekend 2011


SUMMARY OF REQUEST: In accordance with our recently amended
Special Events Policy, “applicants requesting a Special Events Liquor
License for Labor Day events must go before the City Commission for
approval”. The Shoreline Spectacular is requesting approval for their
event. The Police Department has not approved their request for a
temporary liquor license.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Shoreline Foundation, which runs Shoreline
Spectacular, has an outstanding invoice (#9845846) for their 2010
event. It is City policy that all current charges owed to the City must be
paid prior to holding another event.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To deny the request for the Shoreline
Spectacular event in 2011, due to the fact that their invoice from 2010
has not been paid and the Police Department has not approved their
request for a temporary liquor license.
        Commission Meeting Date: February 22, 2011
