Memorandum
To: Mayor and Commissioners
From: Frank Peterson
Re: City Commission Meeting
Date: August 18, 2016
Here is a quick outline of the items on next week’s agenda:
1. Under the consent agenda, we are asking the Commission for approval of the following:
a. Last meeting’s minutes.
b. Designation of voting delegates for the MML annual business meeting
c. Certification of our MERS representatives. MERS is our pension fund manager.
d. Purchase of two police detective vehicles. These Chevy Impalas will be purchased
from Berger Chevrolet as part of the State Purchasing Program. The $46,738.12
expense was originally included in the FY 16-17 budget.
e. Amendment to our current MDNR Trust Fund grant application for Pere Marquette
Park.
f. Authorization of the purchase of a beach cleaner (surf rake). The net cost after
trading in our old rake will be $44,750.
g. Approval of the youth basketball and open gym proposal with Muskegon Public
Schools.
h. Consideration of a new neighborhood enterprise zone at 285 West Western to
accommodate the Highpoint Flats development.
2. Under new business we will be asking the Commission to consider the following:
a. To concur with the HBA’s decision to demolish 1133 West Western Ave. The owner
states that he intends to self-demolish the structure, but we are proceeding in our process
to help ensure we can have it removed regardless of their follow through.
b. We are requesting expansion of the City’s Groundwater Ordinance to include new
parcels on the City’s Westside. There is a newly identified area of groundwater
contamination, which has been attributed to Exxon Mobil. Notices were sent to affected
property owners by their consultant (Groundwater and Environmental Services, Inc.). The
Commission is being asked to expand the current groundwater ordinance to include the
newly identified parcels. The ordinance greatly restricts the use of wells in the affected
area.
If there are questions on any agenda items, please try to let staff know in advance, and we will
be sure to have the appropriate data/research available at the meeting.

Pure Muskegon.
Wes Ecklund, of Fleet Engineering, gave a presentation of Windward Pointe. Several members
of the community purchased the old Sappi property with plans to redevelop it. The property will
be mixed use with houses, marina, shopping, etc. Plans are not complete and much needs to be
done before development can commence but change is coming.
Red Project.
Steve Alsum, Executive Director of The Grand Rapids Red Project would like to begin a similar
program in Muskegon. The program allows people to exchange used needles for clean needles.
The program has proven very successful in Grand Rapids and has lowered the percentage of
those who contract a disease from a used needle.
Commission approval is mandated by law before such a program can begin. Commissioners did
request more information including the sites the needles would be available. More information
will be forthcoming.
Street Lighting.
A possible street lighting assessment was discussed. The assessment would pay for existing
lights to be replaced with higher efficiency lighting. There are 14,482 properties that would be
responsible for approximately $18.85 each year over a ten year period of time.
Some Commissioners showed reluctance or stated they would not support a special assessment
for this purpose. Others requested more information. Staff was requested to gather solid
numbers to share with the Commission.

our community. Collaborating with the City of Muskegon will help offer safe, positive after school

Basketball and Open Gym programs continued a successful foundation to sustain this collaborative
effort. Based on review of expenses our current proposal is as follows:
1.) The MPS 21st CCLC After School Program office located @ Muskegon Hackley Administration
Building, would administer the following programs: the Girls & Boys Youth Basketball League and
City Open Gym. These programs would run between October 2016 and March 2017.
2.) The City of Muskegon would contribute $18,500 towards this partnership. The funds would be used
for the following expenses: program administration and supervision, custodial services,
supplies/materials and support personnel (i.e. referee's and event staff).
Program Descriptions:
1.) Boy's and girl's basketball seasons would run consecutively for (6) weeks with the (6th) week being
tournament play to conclude each season. The girl’s season would start Fall of 2016 and the boy’s would
begin after the conclusion of Christmas break (Winter 2017).
2.) Student registration fee would remain $25 per student to include: reversible game jerseys, individual
participation medals, team plaques, and trophies for the tournament champion and runner up teams will
be provided.
3.) MPS will accept responsibility for all administrative and supervisory obligations for the Youth
Basketball League and Open Gym.
Open Gym:
1.) Open gym will be offered for (3) hours to the community the day following the Saturday basketball
games of both girls and boys seasons.
2.) MPS will accept responsibility for all administrative and supervisory obligations for the Open Gym
program.

RE: Request to Create a New Neighborhood Enterprise Zone District
at 285 W Western Avenue
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Pursuant to Public Act 147 of the Michigan Public Acts of 1992, the developer of the
Highpoint Flats project has requested to create a new Neighborhood Enterprise Zone (NEZ)
district for the parcel at 285 W Western Ave. Properties located in this NEZ district will be
eligible to apply for NEZ certificates, which will lower the residential property taxes rehab
construction. Notice letters were sent to the taxing jurisdictions on June 20 and a public
hearing was held on June 28. State law requires that the resolution must be adopted at
least 60 days after the notice letters were sent. This project will include 47 apartments units.
Since they will be apartments, once the district is created, the developer will only need to
apply for one NEZ certificate for the entire project, rather than 47 individual certificates that
would be required for condos.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No financial impact at this point. However, being in a district will allow them to apply for a
rehab NEZ certificate, which will freeze the building at its pre-rehabilitated rate for 1 to 15
years.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the mew NEZ district.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
None
Resolution No. ________
