2017-73 CONSENT AGENDA:
A. Approval of Minutes City Clerk
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To approve minutes of the August 22, 2017 Regular City
Commission Meeting.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the minutes.
B. Supplemental MERS Contribution Finance
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: For the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2017, staff
conservatively budgeted for pension costs. During the course of fiscal year 2016-
17, changes were made to the Non Union group along with the Police Patrol
Page 1 of 7
and the SEIU group that lower the City’s required payment costs. The amount
the City was expensing each pay period for our pension costs was not adjusted,
this created a surplus. At this time staff believes it is appropriate to take this
opportunity to make a $379,042.54 supplemental payment (above the actuarial
computed amount) to MERS. This is money that the City would be required to
pay MERS eventually. Paying early, while the City is in a position to do so, may
help ease some pressure on future city budgets.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: $379,042.54 supplemental payment to MERS.
$379,042.54 will be paid from monies already set aside for MERS in the collector
fund.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize staff to make a supplemental
$379,042.54 payment to MERS no later than October 31, 2017.
C. MERS Benefit Window City Manager
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Staff is requesting to open a F53(25) Benefit Window in
Division 1 of the MERS Defined Benefit Pension Program. The traditional benefit in

two years earlier than currently allowed. The Benefit Window would be open
from September 1, 2017 through October 31, 2017. Two employees could
become eligible at a total cost of $35,883.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: $35,883

limitations and costs related to the environmental conditions on the property. The City
has a contract with Envirologic for the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s
Brownfield Site Assessment Grant; however, this parcel is not eligible for grant funding.
Envirologic has quoted the project at $24,500.
The FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None

A portion of Hartshorn Marina, 920 W. Western, owned by the City of Muskegon
A vacant lot located at 1000 W. Western, owned by the City of Muskegon and formerly part of
the Shaw-Walker complex
A portion of Fricano Place, 1050 W. Western, owned by Hartshorn Holdings, LLC
The proposed investigation is only for the two parcels of land owned by the City of Muskegon.
Known environmental concerns exist at both parcels of land: Hartshorn Marina had a petroleum
release from an underground storage tank that has been addressed, and the vacant land at 1000 W.
Western remains subject to a Remedial Action Plan and a Restrictive Covenant. In addition, the parcels
are subject to an area-wide land use restriction that prohibits the use of groundwater as a drinking
water source. The most notable environmental issues potentially affecting the development include
the following:
1. Previous environmental investigations identified chlorinated solvents in groundwater at the
1000 W. Western parcel. If these contaminants remain on site, they pose a threat to future
development through the vapor intrusion pathway.
2. Soils will be disturbed for new construction, and it would be appropriate to characterize
shallow soil (i.e., < 5 feet deep) to determine the nature of soil that will be encountered and
removed during redevelopment.
3. Ensuring the proposed development at 1000 W. Western can “fit” with the existing Remedial
Action Plan and restrictive covenant.

To investigate soil and groundwater conditions in the areas where specific development activities are
proposed, Envirologic proposes to complete the following activities. Envirologic will place a series of
soil borings within the footprint of the proposed residential structures and a few select additional
locations. Two soil borings will be placed on the current Hartshorn Marina parcel and seven soil
borings on the 1000 W. Western parcel. At each location, a surface soil sample (6 inches below grade)
and a shallow soil sample (between 0-4 feet) will be collected for laboratory analysis of metals and
polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAs). Soil samples will also be collected and analyzed for volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) if field screening indicates the potential for such compounds (e.g., staining,
odors, or PID readings). A groundwater sample will also be collected from each location for analysis
of VOCs.
Soil borings will be installed using a Geoprobe® direct push unit. A temporary groundwater monitoring
well will be constructed at each soil boring with 1-inch diameter PVC. Groundwater is expected to be
encountered at approximately 15 feet below ground level. Groundwater samples will be collected
using a lift pump. Wells will be purged, and water quality parameters (e.g., pH, conductivity, dissolved
oxygen, oxidation-reduction potential, and turbidity) will be monitored during purging activities for up
to 30 minutes. A groundwater sample will be collected once water quality indicators have stabilized,
as detailed in MDEQ’s low flow sampling guidance, or after 30 minutes of purging, whichever occurs
sooner. On site field work is expected to require up to four days to complete. The attached figure
illustrates the approximate locations of the proposed soil borings.
Soil and groundwater samples will be submitted to Trace Analytical of Muskegon for laboratory
analyses. Upon receipt of the analytical data, Envirologic will prepare a comprehensive project report.
The report will include conclusions and recommendations pertinent to relevant human exposure
pathways, including vapor intrusion risks and soil direct contact in particular. If appropriate, the data
will also be utilized to support development of a Baseline Environmental Assessment and Due Care
documentation.
Envirologic proposes to complete project activities on a time and materials basis. An estimate of the
projected cost is provided below and on the following page.

With respect to only such loss, damage, injury, or liability as is covered under the policies of insurance and policy
limits identified above, Envirologic agrees to save Client harmless from and against loss, damage, injury, or liability arising
directly from the negligent acts or omissions of Envirologic employees, agents, and subcontractors, and their employees and
agents. If Client requires higher insurance limits, additional coverage, or performance or payment bonding, Envirologic will
endeavor to obtain such coverage, at Client's expense. It is the understanding and agreement of the parties, however, that
Envirologic is unable to save Client harmless from and against any loss, damage, injury, or liability arising from any cause,
beyond the amount and coverage listed in this section. In addition, Envirologic shall be included as an additional and intended
beneficiary under any hold harmless agreements against third-party suits between Client and owner or any other third party,
including without limitation any other contractor, subcontractor, or supplier who may perform "Services" or provide material in
connection with any study or report or design prepared by Envirologic.
In no event shall Envirologic be responsible for any incidental, indirect, special, punitive, impact, consequential
damages (including but not limited to loss of profits) or cost of defense incurred by Client or any third party, except as
otherwise provided herein.
All claims, including claims for indemnification, whether based upon contract, tort, breach of warranty, professional
negligence, or otherwise, shall be deemed waived unless the claim is made within the time required under insurance
coverage provided, by Envirologic. Non-insured claims must be made within one (1) year after completion of that work or
event giving rise to the claim.
18. Compliance With Laws. The Client shall be responsible for notifying all appropriate Federal, State,
municipal or other governmental agencies of the existence of any hazardous, toxic or dangerous materials located on or in the
site, or discovered during the performance of this Agreement.
19. Equal Employment. Envirologic is an Equal Opportunity Employer and shall not discriminate against any
employee or applicant for employment based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin.
20. Waiver. No waiver, discharge or renunciation of any claim or right of Envirologic arising out of breach of this
Agreement by Client shall be effective unless in writing, signed by Envirologic.
21. Termination. Either party may terminate this Agreement without cause upon seven (7) days written notice to
the other party. In the event of termination, Client shall pay Envirologic for all costs incurred to date plus reasonable costs
associated with termination of the work.
22. Complete Agreement. These terms and conditions together with the proposal to perform work and rate
schedule constitute the complete and entire agreement between the parties. Any modification thereto must be in writing
signed by both parties.
23. Governing Law. This proposal and its terms and conditions shall be interpreted under and governed by the
laws of the State of Michigan.

COMMISSION MEETING DATE: September 26th, 2017
Date: September 25th, 2017
To: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
From: Director of Public Safety Jeffrey Lewis
RE: Desk top computer work stations - Police Department
_______________________________________________________
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The Director of Public Safety requests that the Commission authorize the amount of
$24,570.00 for thirty nine (39) desk top computers (CPU) for the police department ($630.00
ea.) These upgraded/enhanced CPU’s, will replace the current computers that are
approximately seven (7) years old, which cannot be serviced, and no longer meet the
standards of the software required to operate within the police department.
The new machines are configured with the latest storage technology (solid state drive) built
for speed. They have the memory to handle multi-tasking; they also will run the latest
Windows 10 operating system from Microsoft.
Dell is the chosen supplier as the City is enlisted in a state and local government contract
with Dell computers. The machines in this proposal come heavily discounted due to the
relationship and purchase volume the City has with Dell. The City uses Dell at the server,
networking, storage and computer level (see attached price quote- 092517).
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
N/A – Budgeted
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
Equipment was budgeted in the 2017/2018 (need to adjust 1st quarter budget report to
support the equipment price increase (5700 – Capital Outlays)
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this equipment purchase to update & enhance essential desk
top computers for all bureau’s within the police department.

RE: BID Special Assessment – Resolution Approving District
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The Downtown Business Improvement District (BID) Board is requesting that the special
assessment district for downtown properties be expanded and renewed. The previous
BID district was approved for one year on two separate occasions. It is now proposed to
expand the district to include more parcels, modify the property classifications and rates
and to extend the approval for three years. The assessments will continue to go towards
various downtown expenditures, including sidewalk snow removal, spring/fall cleanup
and landscaping, events, directional signs and marketing/advertising. The BID
assessment includes both a “Class A” and a “Class B” district. Please note that on April
25, 2017, the BID Board voted to amend the BID Bylaws to define a “Class B” property
as “Properties located within the Downtown Muskegon Business Improvement District
which are currently used for, or zoned for industrial or manufacturing.” The word
“automotive” was removed from the definition, moving that category of property to “Class
A.” The BID Board also recommends to raise the amount per square footage on “Class
B” properties from $0.02/sf to $0.04/sf and to raise the cap from $750 to $2,000. The
cap on “Class A” properties was recommended to be raised from $3,000 to $4,000.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City will contribute $25,000 per year towards Downtown Muskegon Now as an
administrative fee.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To approve the attached resolution approving the special assessment district and
authorize the Mayor and Clerk to sign. Also, to appoint two Commissioners to the Board
of Assessors.
CITY OF MUSKEGON
Resolution No. ________
Resolution At First Hearing Creating Special Assessment District For Downtown Muskegon
Business Improvement District (BID) Location and Description of Properties to be assessed:
See Exhibit A attached to this resolution
RECITALS:
1. By resolution of the City Commission, a hearing has been held on September 26, 2017, at 5:30
p.m. at the City Commission Chambers. Notice was given by mail and publication as required by
law.
2. That estimates of costs of the project, a feasibility report and valuation and benefit information are
on file with the City and have been reviewed for this hearing.
3. At the hearing held on September 26, 2017, there were ______________ objections by the owners
of the property in the city registered at the hearing either in writing received before or at the hearing
or by owners or agents present at the hearing, and the Commission has considered the advisability
of proceeding with the project.
FINDINGS:
1. The City Commission has examined the estimates of cost, including all assessable expenses, and
determines them to be reasonable.
2. The City Commission has considered the value of the property to be assessed and the value of the
benefit to be received by each property to be assessed in the district for downtown improvements
and services. The City Commission determines that the assessments of costs of the City project
will enhance the value of the property to be assessed in an amount at least equivalent to the
assessment and that the improvement thereby constitutes a benefit and remove a burden from the
property associated with the services and improvements to the property.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
1. The City Commission hereby declares a special assessment district to include all of the property
included in Exhibit A.
2. The City Commission determines to proceed with the special assessment.
3. The City Commission hereby appoints a Board of Assessors consisting of City Commissioners
_____________________ and _____________________________ and the city Assessor who are
hereby directed to prepare an assessment roll. Assessments shall be made upon a benefit basis.
4. It is hereby determined that, based on the estimates of cost for services and improvements
downtown, the City will levy a special assessment in the said district on “Class A” Properties, as
defined in the BID Bylaws, for an annual assessment of $0.08/sf with no assessment to exceed
$4,000 and “Class B” Properties, as defined in the BID Bylaws, for an annual assessment of
$0.04/sf with no assessment to exceed $2,000 commencing with the Winter 2017 tax bill.
5. Upon Submission of the special assessment roll, the City staff is hereby directed to notify all
owners and persons interested in properties to be assessed of the hearing at which the City
Commission will consider confirmation of the special assessment roll.
This resolution adopted.

PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT EXCERPT
SUMMARY
1. This PUD was previously approved for single-family homes on 70 separate lots. The proposed
amendment would only change the requirements for some of the non-waterfront lots. Please see the
enclosed site plan. The dark grey lots would stay the same and the light grey lots would change.
These 38 lots would be combined to create 19 lots and offer one or two unit homes.
2. The original PUD that was approved had the development requirements defined in the “Sears
Architects” document. This document will stay the same for the waterfront lots, but a new document
has been created for the non-waterfront lots. The only differences between the two documents are as
follows:
• Waterfront lots – one dwelling unit per lot maximum (owners may purchase two lots and
develop only one unit)
Non-waterfront lots – one or two dwelling units per lot maximum (no adjacent lots can be
purchased without developing another unit)
• Waterfront lots – 15 foot minimum rear setback
Non-waterfront lots – 10 foot minimum rear setback
• Waterfront Lots – A minimum of one shade tree per unit
Non-waterfront Lots – A new landscaping plan for the entire area has been provided.
3. Notice was sent to all property owners/tenants within 300 feet of this property. At the time of this
writing, staff had not received any comments about this request.

RE: Request to amend the Planned Unit Development (PUD) at
3425 Fulton Ave
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Request to amend the Harbour Towne Final PUD at 3425 Fulton Ave to allow a 7-unit
boutique hotel at the former Muskegon Yacht Club building. The development will
include hotel suites on the top floor and a banquet room on the bottom floor.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the final PUD.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The request was unanimously recommended for approval at the September 14 Regular
Planning Commission meeting.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT EXCERPT
SUMMARY
1. The property measures 1.5 acres and is part of the Harbour Towne Planned Unit
Development (PUD). The underlying zoning is Lakefront Recreation, which does
allow for hotels. However, an amendment to the PUD is necessary because it was not
approved as part of the original PUD. The building had been previously approved as
a clubhouse for the Harbour Towne Yacht Club and included a restaurant and lounge.
It has been vacant since 2011.
2. The proposed hotel would include seven rental units on the first floor and a reception
area in the basement (please see the enclosed floor plan). Five smaller units would be
located on the north side of the building and two larger units would be located on the
south side of the building. A deck to the top floor hotel suites will be added.The
owner is proposing to allow the marina owners to have access to the reception area
and pool.
3. There are 81 parking spaces associated with this parcel, which is severely more than
is required by the ordinance.
4. Please see the enclosed letter addressed to the Planning Commission from the owner.
5. Notice was sent to all property owners/tenants within 300 feet of this property. At the
time of this writing, staff has received one comment from the public. Linda Jo
Balkema, a marina slip owner, is concerned that there may be conflicts between the
slip owners and the hotel guests. She also recommends that if approved, a fence be
installed around the property to keep the hotel guests off of the marina docks.
(Update for City Commission – Five people called in and opposed to the project,
three called in for support. More people showed up in support than opposed at
meeting. )

the deck for the hotel units, and the use of a banquet facility on the bottom floor,

RE: Approval of the Proposal at 895 4th St
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
Staff sent out a Request for Proposal (RFP) for this property on August 29 and proposals
were due on September 19. The City received one proposal in response to the RFP,
which was from Pigeon Hill Brewing Company. Staff is seeking approval of a slightly
amended proposal and to enter into a purchase agreement. After discussions with City
staff, the company is now offering a total of $40,000 for Sub-Parcel 1 and Sub-Parcel 2.
They plan to construct a building of approximately 15,000 sqft that is expected to be a
$1.5 million investment and would feature large windows facing Shoreline Drive to
showcase their large stainless-steel brewing equipment.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City would receive no less than $40,000 for Sub-Parcels 1 & 2.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To allow staff to enter into a purchase agreement with Pigeon Hill Brewing Company for
Sub-Parcels 1 and 2 for a price that is within at least 15% of the appraised value and no
less than $40,000.
