MEMORANDUM
2/28/08
TO: M. AL-SHATEL, DEPUTY DIRECTOR
FROM: R. VENEKLASEN, WATER FILTRATION
RE: MAGNETIC FLOW METER BID RESULTS
BACKGROUND
Project specifications were recently released to solicit competitive bid prices for the
replacement of the 1950's vintage venturi meter and adjacent piping with a magnetic
flow meter and new piping. The venturi meter is an 18" meter in a 36" pipe which acts
as a constriction causing flow restriction (headloss) in the pipe that results in elevated
pressure and less efficient water flow. The magnetic flow meter matches the pipe
diameter so eliminates inefficiencies and accurately measures the water flow. Initially
the project did not include replacement of the adjacent pipe as it was not anticipated to
be necessary. After the capitol improvements budget was established it came to light
that it is necessary to replace the piping due to it's being tapered eighteen inches over a
number of pipe lengths, compounded by it's bell & spigot construction.
The magnetic flow meter brand specified, Yokogawa, is consistent with the magnetic
meters currently utilized in four locations at the Water Plant. These vary in size from
sixteen to forty-eight inches in diameter. The lead time for receipt of the magnetic flow
meter is sixteen to twenty weeks from the date of order.
PROJECT OUTCOME
The intent of this project is to replace the inaccurate venturi meter with an accurate
meter of the same diameter as the associated piping. This will provide three
advantages: 1) accurate flow recording to the distribution system, 2) eliminate flow
constriction inherit in the venturi meter, and provide a reliable second means of moving
water to the distribution system.
BIDS
The results of the bid solicitation are as follows:
Franklin Holwerda Company $278,114
2509 29 th Street
Wyoming, Ml 49519
616.538.3231
Jackson-Merkey Contractors, Inc $256,475
555 E. Western Avenue
Muskegon, Ml 49442
231. 728-9344
The bid included a deductible alternate for a butterfly valve in lieu of the gate valve. The
deduction for both bids was $18,780.
RECOMMENDATION
The 2008 Capitol improvements budget for the Water Filtration Plant includes $80,000
for the magnetic flow meter project and $50,000 for replacement of the clearwell valves.
The magnetic flow meter project has more immediate importance than the clearwell
valve project. However, the clearwell valve project remains a future necessity.
It is my suggestion to combine the budgets for the two projects - flow meter and
clearwell valves and request increasing the capitol improvements budget in the first
quarter budget reforecast to meet this project bid cost. Further, that we bring the
recommendation to proceed with the project low bidder to the City Commission in the
second meeting of March; March 25, 2008. I look forward to your favorable response to
this approach to the project.

RE: Muskegon Bike Time Events, Inc.
July 18th thru July 20th , 2008
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Muskegon Bike Time sent a letter dated October 22,
2007, which included several requests to the City of Muskegon (see attached letter).
The Leisure Services Board and City staff have reviewed the request and
recommend approval, with the conditions outlined in the staff memo from Cathy
Brubaker-Clarke, dated March 17 (see attached memo), and with the modifications
suggested by the Leisure Services Board at their March 17, 2008 meeting (see
below).

equipment for Bike Time. It is recommended that staff make the final decision
regarding rental fees, actual costs, and/or exchange of concert tickets.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.

in their letter dated October 22, 2007, with the conditions outlined by staff in the

and the Parties-in-the-Park Committee.
MEMO
To: Leisure Services Board
From: Cathy Brubaker-Clarke, Director of Community & Economic Development
Date: March 17, 2008
Re: Bike Time Request- Staff Report Update
Staff is excited to be working with the Bike Time Committee on another outstanding event in
Muskegon. We are fully supportive of the event and realize the benefits to Muskegon. There are
some concerns, however, that will need to be considered prior to approval of the request. These
include comments from various department staff, including Public Safety and Engineering. The
concerns are taken in order of the Bike Time request letter dated October 22, 2007.
1) There are no major concerns with the fireworks request It is important, however, that
Bike Time staff is aware that this could draw several more people downtown and could
result in extra staffing.
2) Hackley Park is already reserved for July 18th---the Westshore Symphony. Bike Time
has asked for Clay Street as the main motorcycle route for that weekend. There certainly
will be a noise conflict that evening. The loss of Clay and surrounding streets will also
limit parking for those who want to attend the Hackley Park event Due to the above, it is
not possible for Bike Time to use Hackley Park on July 18. The terms normally
reserved for Parties-in-the-Park will remain in place during the Parties-in-the-Park
hours, including the closure of Clay Street between Third and Fourth Street for
their use. In addition, Fourth Street between Webster and Clay Avenues will be
closed and reserved for Public Safety.
3) Police Chief Kleibecker has met with the Bike Time Security Director Due to the fact that
there are businesses located on Western Avenue east of Third (Hegg's), and the Post
Office must remain open, he is requiring that: (a) First Street from Shoreline to Western
must remain open (in addition, First Street between Western and Clay is not a public
street and the City has no jurisdiction over it). (b) Morris from Third to Terrace must
remain open to allow access to Hegg's and to the office complexes at Morris and
Terrace. (c) The bikes will have to make their turns to go back west on Western from
Jefferson and not from Terrace. No closures or impediments are allowed along Terrace.
4) Staff recommends that Bike Time be allowed to use the City's parking lot across from
LC. with the condition that they use reasonable anchors to prevent permanent damage
to the asphalt surface. Approval for "reasonable anchors" should be secured through the
City's Engineering Department.
5) The City's portion of the fourth street & Shoreline parking belongs to LC management.
Therefore, a separate agreement must be made between Bike Time and L.C.
management for that lot In addition, Bike Time is responsible for securing its own
electrical service on site (not the City's).
6) Staff recommends that exclusive peddling rights only be considered in the immediate
area of Bike Time (between Shoreline Drive to the East- East of Terrace, Seventh Street
to the West, the lakeshore to the North and Webster Avenue on the South- additional
information will be needed from Bike Time regarding the exact boundaries, with final
approval by staff recommended). First Street from Western to Clay cannot be included in
this request, as it is not public. Mart, should not be a part of this request as it provides for
the only access to the Amazon building while Western is closed off. Staff also has
requested a legal opinion from our City Attorney on this issue.
7) The City will not be tied to notifying Bike Time of requests for use of City facilities.
8) Staff recommends that each beverage tent and liquor request for the Bike Time event be
reviewed by the City for approval.
9) Additional information will be needed regarding equipment for Bike Time. II is
recommended that staff make the final decision regarding rental fees, actual costs,
and/or exchange of concert tickets.
10) Staff recommends that Bike Time seek approval from the City for their specific use of
their own labor pool. There are implications with this, particularly in relation to public
safety staff. In addition, the City is willing to review staffing levels for City personnel with
the Bike Time staff, with the City making the final decision on the number of City staff
needed for the event.
11) The City will provide an estimated list of all fees incurred by Bike Time from the City of
Muskegon.
12) Additional labor and equipment use not outlined in the application will be cleared through
Bike Time, providing it does not involve public safety or an emergency matter.
13) City Staff will plan to meet (in fact, they already have been meeting) with Bike Time staff
regarding staffing levels for City personnel.
City staff recommends approval of the Bike Time request, per the letter from Paul Winter, dated
October 22, 2007, with the exceptions listed above.

any standard, attracting more than 20,000 motorcycles and over 60,000 people. It was enjoyed
by Muskegon residents as well as visitors, many of whom had their first experience along the
West Michigan lakeshore.
Since February 2007, Muskegon Bike Time Events, Inc, has been granted 501(c)(3) non-profit
status. Our objective is to make Muskegon Bike Time into a sustainable annual event which
generates enough revenue to (1) cover all expenses for each year's event-sponsored activities, (2)
build reserves sufficient to satisfy advanced funding requirements for the next year's events, and
(3) fund qualified charitable and civic projects in the greater Muskegon area. We are confident
that the Muskegon Bike Time Event will enhance the reputation of Muskegon as a desirable
tourism destination with all the associated economic benefits. Our request below will serve to
secure the long term viability of the event.
In various discussions over the last 18 months with the Mayor and Commission members, we
have suggested several ways in which the city itself, and possibly surrounding jurisdictions,
could also directly benefit from the event economically. These suggestions include a two week
city tax (over and above state sales tax), city sanitation fee charged to event vendors, and a city
pe1mit or license fee for each vendor. We again encourage the city to consider these long-term
opportunities as the event matures.
To achieve our mutual objectives, we request the City Commission's continued support for
Muskegon Bike Time for the next 10 years.

Culvert replacement at the West Branch of Ruddiman Creek, North of
Sherman Blvd. (SP-202)

easements.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

additional 15% to be shared between the three communities.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:

Re: Crack Sealing Machine
The Highway Department has been renting crack sealing machines
over the last couple of summers to determine what machine best serves
their needs.
At the end of last season they decided that the Crafco Supershot 125
was the quickest most efficient machine.
We were approached in the beginning of March by the Crafco
salesman that the machine that we were renting was available for
purchase and that the company would apply $12,300 of the rent we paid
last year to reduce our cost.
While this purchase was not budgeted in 2008, we feel that the
proposal is in the best interest of all parties.

Estes St from
Fair Ave. to LakeshoreDr.
The proposed reconstruction of Estes St. between Fair Ave. & Lakeshorn Dr,, see attached special assessment
district map, was initiated by the City due to the street conditions. We feel that reconstruction is the most effective
method especially with the needs for other facilities such as storm sewer work and water main. The existing
pavement condition of 35 (out of l 00) is well below acceptable.
The proposed reconstruction consists of existing pavement removal and constructing a new curb & gutter street
along with all other necessary utilities with the section from Harl'ison to L.S.D being of concrete material.
A memorandum from the Assessor's office, which addresses appraisal and benefits to abutting properties, is
attached.
The preliminary cost estimate for the work associated with paving is approximately $135,000.00 with the length of
the project being approximatefy 832 lineal feet or 1,297.4 feet of assessable front footage. This translates into an
estimated improvement cost of$104.00 per assessable foot. However, based on the 2008 assessment figure for this
type of improvement, the assessment will not exceed $32.00 per assessable foot.
While the preliminary proposed assessment rate on the resolution is 30%, the actual rate, upon completion of the
project and at the time of spreading, will be limited to the 25% of total cost as amended in the special assessment
policy.

COMMISSIONERS
933 Terrace Street
James J. Derezinski Muskegon, Ml 49443
Chair, District 4
Mr. Al-Shatel:
I. John Snider II
Vice Chair, District 3 In accordance with your request, I have examined the proposed special assessment
P. DonAlay district entailing the reconstruction of Estes Street from Lakeshore Drive to Fair
District 7 Avenue (Project# H-1632). The purpose of this analysis is to document the
Charles L. Buzzell
reasonableness of this special assessment district by identifying and quantifying any
. District 2 accrued benefits. It is subject to the normal governmental restrictions of escheat,
Lew Collins
taxation, police power and eminent domain. The effective date is February 28, 2008.
District 6 The proposed special assessment district en~mpasses primarily residential properties.
Marvin R. Engle The City ofMuskegon's Engineering Department has provided all frontage estimates
District 5 in accordance with the City's Special Assessment Policy and all project-related costs.
BillGill The total project cost is estimated to be $135,000. The amount of money to be spread
District 8 to the 20 property owners has been estimated at $41,516.80 or 30.8% of the total
Kenneth Mahoney costs. The proposed front foot rated to be spread is $32.00, The City's Engineering
District 1 Department is solely responsible for these figures.
Louis A. McMurray In conclusion, it is my opinion that the special assessment amounts as provided by the
District 9
City justly and reasonably represents the accrued benefits to the properties
Robert Scolnik encompassed by this project. The amounts reflect the sum of the immediate estimated
District 11
value enhancement and the intrinsic value that will accrue from an overall increase in
Roger C. Wade property values due to an improved quality of life created by the proposed project.
District 10 Simply stated, the front foot rate of$32.00 to be spread over an assessable footage of
1297.40 for the reconstruction of the above mentioned project area appears reasonable
and equitable based upon the data presented by the City of Muskegon Engineering
Department, and on supporting office records. The only exception to this conclusion
is Parcel Number 61-24-205-623-0012-00 (2075 Estes) that I feel the assessment
against should be reduced to 50% due to the lot's configuration.

Subject: Repaving of Estes St., Fair Ave to Lakeshore DR.
Ray E Morency,Jr.
2066 Estes St.
A statement of my objections to this project.
Honorable Mayor
City Commissioners
And interested parties in attendance.
I am listing some of my objections to this proposed special assessment.
I. Timing and notification.
2. Property values.
3. Your reasons for the so called improvement, road noise, dust, wear and tear on
your vehicle. Improved curb appeal
4. Mail man and snow plow?
5. Home and property have been in the family since 1863
6. Adjacent property, devaluating my property.
7. Suggest we should be centering our efforts on something other than public side
streets.
8. After contacting a few of the people that have gone through this same situation, I
fear that I may be speaking to deaf ears.
9. Age of the street.
10. Histo1y of Estes St.
11. City income tax: What portion does the dept. of engineers get which should go for
UP KEEP of our public streets.
12. What has been the logic: Mann, Moon then they decide to skip Torrent, and
Blodget. I notice that one of the I st streets to be done was adjacent to a tavern in
Lakeside, and from the pictures I have, it wasn't in as bad shape as the other
streets in the area.
13. New ideas seem to be shot down when they are presented by individuals with
vision, namely John Vanderstelt and Dick Borgeson.
14. I hope everyone that is paying for their share of this project realizes we will be
responsible for any override.
15. Closing remarks,
16. State my request to the Commissioners.
17. Thank you for this opportunity and taking time from your busy schedule to listen
to my comments. I ask that you take them seriously with consideration for the
people concerned and those who pay their City Property and Income Taxes on
time.

ENGINEERING FEASIBILITY STUDY
Seventh St.from
Muskegon Ave. to Webster Ave.
The proposed reconstruction of Seventh St. between Muskegon Ave. & Webster Ave,, see attached special
assessment district map, was initiated by the City due to the street conditions. The improvement being proposed
consists of a complete removal of all existing pavements including curb and gutter and the placement of a new
street pavement that will include a new curb and gutter. The proposed reconstruction is the most effective method
especially with the needs for· other improvements such as widening the street to a 34' section instead of the existing
27'. The existing pavement condition is below 25 (out of 100) is which well below acceptable.
A memorandum from the Assessor's office, which addresses appraisal and- benefits to abutting properties, is
attached. ·
The preliminary cost estimate for the work associated with paving is apprnximately $85,000.00 with the length of
the project being approximately 236 lineal feet or 376 feet of assessable front footage. This translates into an
estimated imprnvement cost ·of $226.00 per assessable foot. However, based on the 2008 assessment figure for this
type of improvement, the assessment will not exceed $32.00 per assessable foot.

Mr. Al-Shatel:
P. Don Aley In accordance with your request, I have examined the proposed special assessment
Dlstrlct7 district entailing the reconstruction of Seventh Street from Webster Avenue to
Charles 1-. Buzzell Muskegon Avenue (Project# H-1637). The purpose of this analysis is to document
District 2 the reasonableness of this special assessment district by identifying and quantifying any
Lew Collins
accrued benefits. It is subject to the normal governmental restrictions of escheat,
District 6 taxation, police power and eminent domain. The effective date is February 20, 2008.
Marvin R. Engle The proposed special assessment district encompasses primarily residential properties.
District 5 The City of Muskegon's Engineering Department has provided all frontage estimates
BIIIGIII in accordance with the City's Special Assessment Policy and all project-related costs.
District 8 The total project cost is estimated to be $85,000. The amount of money to be spread
l<enneth Mahoney to the 7 property owners has been estimated at $13,088.00 or 15.4% of the total costs.
District 1 The proposed front foot rated to be spread is $32.00. The City's Engineering
Louis A. McMurray Department is solely responsible for these figures.
Distrtct 9
In conclusion, it is my opinion that the special assessment amounts as provided by the
Robert Scolnik City justly and reasonably represents the accrued benefits to the properties
District 11
encompassed by this project. The amounts reflect the sum of the immediate estimated
Roger C. Wade value enhancement and the intrinsic value that will accrue from an overall increase in
District 10
property values due to an impfoved quality oflife created by the proposed project.
Simply stated, the front foot rate of$32.00 to be spread over an assessable.footage of
409.00 for the reconstruction of the above mentioned project area appears reasonable
and equitable based upon the data presented by the City of Muskegon Engineering
Department, and on supporting office records. ·

Planning Department
Memo
To: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
From: Mike Cameron, Code Coordinator
Date: March 21, 2008
Re: Environmental Terrace Special Pick-ups Contract
Staff requested bids be submitted for a possible three year contract with an optional
contract extension typically set at two years. The bid documents also had an area for
submission of a three year bid with an option to extend that, which is typically set at
two years.
The request for bids resulted in three submissions from area contractors to perform
the services needed. The bids were submitted by: Freelance Enterprises Inc., 1385
E. Keating, located in Muskegon Township. Current contractor Diversified UG
Utilities Inc. 2329 E. Riverwood Drive, Twin Lake. Big Sky Field Services, 5425
Whitehall Rd. located in Fruitland Township. Submitted bid amounts are shown in
the table further below.
Staff has reviewed the documents submitted and has found some minor deficiencies
in the documents as submitted by Freelance Enterprises and Big Sky Field Services.
Both companies neglected to properly fill out the Non-Collusion Affidavit and these
would need to be properly executed prior to contract signing. Diversified UG Utilities
Bid documents were all properly submitted.
Because of the significant cost savings by going with the low bidder, staffs
recommendation is to waive the irregularities in the submitted bid and accept the
three year bid with Big Sky Field Services. Big Sky is clearly the low bidder for the
work we need performed and appears to have all the necessary equipment to
satisfactorily fulfill the contract.

RE: Environmental Program Mowing and Trash Clean-
up Contract
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The contract for mowing of lots and trash clean up of public and private
properties previously held by Freelance Enterprises Inc. will expire on
March 29, 2008. A request for bids was advertised and five companies
placed bids. One set of bids submitted by Murray Vanderstelt were
contradictory and very incomplete. Freelance Enterprises of Muskegon
Township is the low bidder for a two-year agreement and Earth
Creations of Fruitland Township is the second lowest bidder.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None - Funds budgeted for this activity.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To formally reject the bid submitted by Mr. Murrary Vanderstelt because
of severely deficient bid documents and approve a 2 year contract with
Freelance Enterprises Inc. Additionally, to approve a 3 year contract with
Earth Creations and to authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign
agreements with both companies (see attachments), for the mowing of
lots and trash removal on properties located within the city.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: None
Planning Department
Memo
To: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
From: Mike Cameron, Code Coordinator
Date: March 21, 2008
Re: Environmental mowing & trash contract bids
Staff requested bids for a possible three year contract with an optional contract extension typically set
at two years. The bid documents also had an area for submission of a three year bid with an option to
extend that, which is typically set at two years. This request for bids resulted in five submissions from
area contractors to perform the services needed and are shown in the tables located later in this
document.
Staff has been monitoring the current contractor very closely over the term of the last contract and
would like to recommend awarding the contract to two contractors this season, instead of the
customary single contractor. Staff believes this would better serve the program by getting the grass cut
or trash picked up in a shorter time frame. Because of the dramatic swings in the number of work
requests, it has been difficult for one contractor to adequately respond to our work requests in an
acceptable time frame. Staff has attempted to work with the contractor to increase productivity but to
date our efforts have not been successful. A substantial number of our enforcement actions are being
delayed because the contractor can't keep up. At times this has hampered staffs efforts to operate in
an efficient manor and forces neighbors to tolerate a situation longer than they should have to.
In reviewing the bid documents staff discovered irregularities in almost all of the bidding documents,
except the documents submitted by Earth Creations. The errors ranged from minor errors such as a
name area being left blank to one set of documents submitted virtually empty, with three different sets
of bids submitted by the same entity. Staff feels that these errors can be addressed prior to awarding
of the contract with the exception of the bid from Mr. Murrary Vanderstelt. This bid packet is so lacking
of the required information, signatures and equipment listings that it would not be fair and reasonable to
the other bidders to allow this bid to be submitted. Therefore staff recommends rejection of Mr.
Vanderstelt's bid.
Because of the varying prices submitted by the different bidders, staff would like to recommend the
following contracts to be awarded.
1. Award a two year contract to Freelance Enterprises with a two year extension possible.
2. Award a 3 year contract to Earth Creations with a two year extension possible.
Awarding contracts as indicated would be accepting the low bidder, Freelance Enterprises and the
runner up _low bidder, Earth Creations. The reasoning for the three year agreement with Earth
Creations is that they had submitted a lower bid for a three year contract versus a two year agreement.
• Page 1
The reasoning for a two year agreement with Freelance Enterprises would be to stagger our contract
renewal dates between the two contractors. Freelance Enterprises did not provide any monetary
incentive for a three year agreement. It should also be noted that the largest difference between the
Freelance Enterprises bid and Earth Creations was in the Helping Labor category. In 2007 we did not
utilize any workers in this category and staff doubts we will in 2008. In addition, Freelance submitted a
bid of $13.50 an hour for two workers in this category, this portion of the bid is very suspect since that
would place the two workers below minimum wage requirements.
Staff firmly believes that management of two contractors, versus one contractor, would actually be
easier in many ways. Currently both inspectors must compete with each other for the contractors
available resources to allow the inspector to get his properties mowed or cleaned up. By having one
contractor assigned to each inspector, there should be more than enough resources allocated to each
inspector to be better able to keep up on his duties. In turn, this will allow us to offer a much improved
customer service by getting the lots mowed or picked up in a timelier manner. The increased cost for
having two contractors is minimal since Earth Creations three year bid is actually lower in the hand
mowing category than Freelance Enterprises bid for the same service. There will be a slight cost
increase having two contractors versus one because of higher bid amounts in the trash and tractor
areas by Earth Creations.
The five bids for a two-year contract were as follows:

Planning Department
Memo
To: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
From: Mike Cameron, Code Coordinator
Date: March 21, 2008
Re: Environmental mowing & trash contract bids
Staff requested bids for a possible three year contract with an optional contract extension typically set
at two years. The bid documents also had an area for submission of a three year bid with an option to
extend that, which is typically set at two years. This request for bids resulted in five submissions from
area contractors to perform the services needed and are shown in the tables located later in this
document.
Staff has been monitoring the current contractor very closely over the term of the last contract and
would like to recommend awarding the contract to two contractors this season, instead of the
customary single contractor. Staff believes this would better serve the program by getting the grass cut
or trash picked up in a shorter time frame. Because of the dramatic swings in the number of work
requests, it has been difficult for one contractor to adequately respond to our work requests in an
acceptable time frame. Staff has attempted to work with the contractor to increase productivity but to
date our efforts have not been successful. A substantial number of our enforcement actions are being
delayed because the contractor can't keep up. At times this has hampered staffs efforts to operate in
an efficient manor and forces neighbors to tolerate a situation longer than they should have to.
In reviewing the bid documents staff discovered irregularities in almost all of the bidding documents,
except the documents submitted by Earth Creations. The errors ranged from minor errors such as a
name area being left blank to one set of documents submitted virtually empty, with three different sets
of bids submitted by the same entity. Staff feels that these errors can be addressed prior to awarding
of the contract with the exception of the bid from Mr. Murrary Vanderstelt. This bid packet is so lacking
of the required information, signatures and equipment listings that it would not be fair and reasonable to
the other bidders to allow this bid to be submitted. Therefore staff recommends rejection of Mr.
Vanderstelt's bid.
Because of the varying prices submitted by the different bidders, staff would like to recommend the
following contracts to be awarded.
1. Award a two year contract to Freelance Enterprises with a two year extension possible.
2. Award a 3 year contract to Earth Creations with a two year extension possible.
Awarding contracts as indicated would be accepting the low bidder, Freelance Enterprises and the
runner up low bidder, Earth Creations. The reasoning for the three year agreement with Earth
Creations is that they had submitted a lower bid for a three year contract versus a two year agreement.
The reasoning for a two year agreement with Freelance Enterprises would be to stagger our contract
renewal dates between the two contractors. Freelance Enterprises did not provide any monetary
incentive for a three year agreement. It should also be noted that the largest difference between the
Freelance Enterprises bid and Earth Creations was in the Helping Labor category. In 2007 we did not
utilize any workers in this category and staff doubts we will in 2008. In addition, Freelance submitted a
bid of $13.50 an hour for two workers in this category, this portion of the bid is very suspect since that
would place the two workers below minimum wage requirements.
Staff firmly believes that management of two contractors, versus one contractor, would actually be
easier in many ways. Currently both inspectors must compete with each other for the contractors
available resources to allow the inspector to get his properties mowed or cleaned up. By having one
contractor assigned to each inspector, there should be more than enough resources allocated to each
inspector to be better able to keep up on his duties. In turn, this will allow us to offer a much improved
customer service by getting the lots mowed or picked up in a timelier manner. The increased cost for
having two contractors is minimal since Earth Creations three year bid is actually lower in the hand
mowing category than Freelance Enterprises bid for the same service. There will be a slight cost
increase having two contractors versus one because of higher bid amounts in the trash and tractor
areas by Earth Creations.
The five bids for a two-year contract were as follows:

RE: Site Assessment Development and
Reimbursement Agreement between Viridian
Properties LLC and the City of Muskegon
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The City of Muskegon has a Brownfield
Redevelopment Loan in the amount of $500,000 with the Michigan
Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ). The loan is for purposes
of addressing environmental assessment and remediation for sites
being redeveloped. An agreement has been reached with Dan
Henrickson of Viridian Properties LLC to use $250,000 of the loan for
site improvements on Edison Landing. These improvements will
address environmental concerns, enhance the aesthetics of the site and
make the property more desirable from a marketing standpoint.
Although the loan is between the City and MDEQ, Mr. Henrickson has
agreed to make the loan payments.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None, as Mr. Henrickson will be making the loan
payments.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the attached Development
and Reimbursement Agreement and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk
to sign.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: None.
2008-3l(d)
DEVELOPMENT AND REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
THIS DEVELOPMENT AND REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT (the
"Agreement") is made as of March 25 , 2008, between the City of Muskegon, 933
Terrace Street, PO Box 536, Muskegon, Michigan 49443 (the "City") and Viridian Properties
LLC, a Michigan limited liability company, of 6250 Jupiter Avenue, Suite B, Belmont, Michigan
49306 (the "Developer").
Recitals
A. In November, 2007, the Developer acquired certain condominium units in Muskegon
Lakeshore SmartZone, a site condominium project located in the City, such units being
legally described on the attached Exhibit A (the "Property").
B. The Property has been deemed a "facility" under Part 201 of Michigan's Natural
Resource and Environmental Protection law (Part 201 ).
C. The Developer plans to prepare the Property for redevelopment, including undertaking
Part 201 due care response activities. These activities will provide environmental
protection by mitigating direct contact risks for occupants and utility workers at the site.
The Developer intends to improve the Property and sell the condominium units contained
in the Property, which will increase the tax base within the City and otherwise enhance
the economic vitality and quality of life in the City.
D. As documented in the proposed remedial action plan ("RAP") submitted to the Michigan
Department of Environmental Quality ("MDEQ") for review in October, 2002 by
Teledyne, arsenic and lead are present throughout the Property at concentrations
exceeding generic residential cleanup criteria. The RAP proposes, among other things, to
place clean fill on the Property in order to mitigate direct contact risks. Because the RAP
has not been approved by the MDEQ and the exposure barrier has not been placed on the
undeveloped portions of the Property, the Developer proposed to mitigate these contact
risks by placement of clean fill (as conditions of each unit and MDEQ approved work
plan dictate) as a Part 201 due care response activity.
E. The City and the MDEQ entered into a CMI Brownfield Loan Agreement on or about
March 18, 2005, which agreement has subsequently been amended (the "City/MDEQ
Agreement")on December 17,2008. Under the City/MDEQ Agreement, the MDEQ made
available to the City the principal sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00)
to provide loan funding pursuant to Part 196, Clean Michigan Initiative Implementation,
of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended
("NREPA"). A copy of the City/MDEQ Agreement is attached as Exhibit B.
F. The City has made available to the Developer for use in connection with the Project, for
1
specified purposes, a portion of the loan described in the City/MDEQ Agreement.
G. This Agreement sets forth the provisions under which the Developer may utilize and shall
repay the money made available by the City.
H. Environmental Resources Management ("ERM") has prepared a work plan dated
_ ___, describing due care response activities to be performed on the Property (the
"Work Plan"). After review and approval of the Work Plan by the City and MDEQ, the
Developer will incur costs in carrying out, or causing to be carried out, the activities
described in the approved Work Plan (the "Eligible Work Plan Costs").
Provisions
For valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are acknowledged by the
parties, the City and the Developer agree as follows:
I. Submission of Costs. For those Eligible Work Plan Costs for which the
Developer seeks reimbursement from the City, the Developer shall submit to the City the
following:
a. A written statement detailing the purposes and amounts of the costs;
b. A written explanation as to how the Work Plan Costs meet the criteria for
eligibility under the "City/MDEQ Agreement
c. Copies of invoices from contractors, engineers or others who provided
such services or, for the Developer's personnel for whose services
reimbursement is being sought, detailed time records showing the work
performed by such individuals; and
d. Any other information which may be reasonably required by the City or
the MDEQ.
The Developer may submit an application for payment of Eligible Work Plan Costs after
the Work Plan has been approved by MDEQ and the City, and may submit additional
applications for payment of additional Eligible Work Plan Costs after that date, but no more
often than monthly. The finaf date for submission of any such application for payment shall be
September 30, 2008. The City shall make available to Developer under this Agreement and the
City/MDEQ Agreement a sum of money of up to $250,000, contingent on MDEQ and City
approval of Eligible Work Plan Costs.
2. Payment of Eligible Work Plan Costs. Unless it disputes whether any costs are
Eligible Work Plan Costs or the accuracy of such costs, the City shall pay to the Developer the
amounts for which submissions have been made pursuant to paragraph 1 of this Agreement
within 30 days after the City has received all of the submittal materials described in paragraph 1.
If the City disputes whether any costs are Eligible Work Plan Costs, or the amount of such costs,
then before the expiration of such deadline, the City shall pay the amount not in dispute and shall
2
provide the Developer with a written description of the reasons for the City's decision not to
reimburse the Developer for any such costs. The parties shall work together in good faith to
resolve any such dispute.
3. Adjustments to Eligible Work Plan Costs. The amounts and types of costs to
be included as Eligible Work Plan Costs are contained in the Work Plan and the City/MDEQ
Agreement. The costs described in the Work Plan are educated estimates only and any funds
remaining at the end of a phase of work may be carried over and used in the next phase of the
Work Plan. No costs will be reimbursed beyond those identified in the approved Work Plan.
4. Development. The Developer shall commence work to implement the Work Plan
as soon as possible after Work Plan approval, and will use its reasonable best efforts to complete
such work by September 30, 2008, but in no event later than December 17, 2008.The Developer
understands and acknowledges that any Eligible Work Plan Costs incurred after December 17,
2008 shall not be paid under this Agreement.
5. Reporting. The Developer must complete and submit to the City quarterly
progress reports which satisfy the City's obligation as "Borrower" under the City/MDEQ
Agreement. The reports shall be submitted to the City in time for the City to meet the deadlines
for submission under Section V of the City/MDEQ Agreement. In addition, a copy of any report
pertaining to the environmental conditions on the Property shall be provided to the City when it
is made available to the Developer.
6. Compliance with City/MDEQ Agreement. The Developer shall not take any
action, or fail to take any action, which would cause the City, as the Borrower under the
City/MDEQ Agreement, to commit a default or violate any provision under the City/MDEQ
Agreement. If the City claims that the Developer has caused the City to commit a default or
violate a provision under the City/MDEQ Agreement or has defaulted under this Agreement
itself, then the City shall provide written notice of the claimed default and the Developer shall
cure the default within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of such notice; provided, however,
that if the claimed default is of a character that cannot reasonably be cured with such thirty-day
period, then the City may at it sole discretion elect to grant the Developer an additional period of
time as the City deems reasonable under the circumstances to cure the default or pursue its
remedies for default under section 9 of this Agreement.
The Developer agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of the City/MDEQ
Agreement and further agrees to indemnify and hold the City harmless from any and all
liabilities, claims, costs, losses and damages resulting from the Developer's actions or failure to
act which cause a violation of the terms and conditions of the City/MDEQ Agreement.
7. Payment by Developer. Under the City/MDEQ Agreement, as reflected on the
amortization schedule attached as Exhibit B to such Agreement, the City is required to make loan
repayments to the MDEQ in equal annual installments of principal and interest beginning on
March 18, 2010 and continuing through March 18, 2019. All Eligible Work Plan Costs for
which the Developer has not made reimbursement to the City before March 18, 2010 shall bear
3
interest from that date at the rate of two percent (2%) per annum and shall be repaid by the
Developer to the City in ten (I 0) equal annual installments of principal and interest from March
18, 2010 through March 18, 2019, parallel with the payments that the City is required to pay to
the MDEQ. The Developer may make full or partial repayments of the Eligible Work Plan Costs
to the City before or after March 18, 2010 and no interest shall accrue on the Eligible Work Plan
Costs paid to the Developer unless any amount remains unpaid on March 18, 2010, in which
case, as set forth above, interest shall accrue at the rate of two percent (2%) per annum on any
unpaid principal balance existing from time to time thereafter. If the Developer makes any
prepayment after March 18, 20 I 0, then the remaining unpaid balance shall be re-amortized over
the number of years remaining in the original ten-year term and the Developer shall make equal
annual payments based on the re-amortized schedule.
8. Security. To provide the City with additional assurance of payment, the
developer shall provide the City with a mortgage on the Property, in the form attached as Exhibit
C, and the guaranty of Dan S. Henrickson, the sole member of the Developer, as set forth on the
attached Exhibit D, which are to be executed simultaneously with this Agreement. The parcel
subject to the mortgage is Unit O of the Property. If Unit O is transferred to a bona fide
purchaser for market value consideration, the City agrees to provide the Developer with a release
of the mortgage provided that a new identical form of mortgage is simultaneously executed by
the Developer which encumbers another Unit of the subdivision. The Unit to be encumbered by
the new mortgage shall be mutually agreed upon subject to the Developer's demonstration that
such Unit's present market value is equal to or greater than the total amount of repayment
obligations owed by the Developer under Section 7 at such time. Upon each subsequent sale of a
Unit encumbered by the mortgage, another mortgage shall be simultaneously executed as
described above.
In the event that all of the Units are sold before the Developer's repayment obligations
under section 7 are fully met, all such obligations shall become due and payable on or before the
closing of the sale of the final Unit to be sold.
9. Remedies. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if the Developer
defaults under this Agreement, the City may, at its sole option, pursue all legal and equitable
remedies available under Michigan law, including without limitation, those remedies that the
State has against the City, as Borrower, under the City/MDEQ Agreement.
10. No Assignment. The Developer's rights and obligations under this Agreement
may not be assigned without prior written consent by the City.
11. Waiver. No term, condition, covenant, or provision in this Agreement may be
waived, except in writing, signed by the waiving party. No oral statements, course of conduct, or
course of dealing shall be deemed a waiver. No waiver by any party of any violation or breach of
this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to constitute a waiver of any other violation or
breach, or the continuing waiver of any violation or breach.
4
12. Binding Nature. This Agreement and the rights and obligations under this
Agreement shall not be assigned or otherwise transferred by any party without the consent of the
other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Agreement shall be binding on any
permitted successor or assign of either party.
13. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate when all of the obligations
required under this Agreement have been fulfilled, a default has occurred, or upon mutual
agreement of the parties.

C:\Documents and Settings\\::ari\Loca\ Setlings\Temporary Internet Fi\es\OLKCF4\mortgage02.npC\MSOffice
2. Warranties. Mortgagor warrants and represents to Mortgagee as follows:
The execution, delivery and performance of this Mortgage by Mortgagor will not
violate any law, rule, judgment, order, agreement or instrument binding upon Mortgagor,
and will not violate Mortgagor's articles of organization or operating agreement, and will
not require the approval of any public authority or any third party, and this Mortgage is
the valid and binding obligation of Mortgagor, enforceable in accordance with its terms.
Mortgagor is a Michigan limited liability company which is duly organized and validly
existing in good standing in the State of Michigan. Mortgagor has full power to execute
this Mortgage and the undersigned officer of the Mortgagor has full authority to bind
Mortgagor to the obligations contained in this Mortgage.
3. Assignment of Leases and Contracts. Mortgagor assigns and mortgages to
Mortgagee, and grants to Mortgagee a security interest in, as additional security for the
Indebtedness, all of Mortgagor's right, title and interest in and to all existing and future oral or
written leases of all or any part of the premises or of any interest in them and all existing and
future land contracts or other agreements by which the premises or any interest in them is being
or shall be sold, together with all rents and profits arising from, and all other proceeds of, those
leases, land contracts or other agreements. Without the written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagor
shall not cancel, accept a surrender of, modify, consent to an assignment of the lessee's interest
under, or make any other assignment or other disposition of, any lease, land contract or other
agreement or of any interest of Mortgagor in it and shall not collect or accept any payment of rent
or of principal or interest or any other amount more than one month before it is due and payable.
Mortgagor shall pay and perform all obligations and covenants required of Mortgagor by the
terms of each lease, land contract or other agreement. If Mortgagor shall default in the payment
or performance of any obligation or covenant, then Mortgagee shall have the right, but shall have
no obligation, to pay or perform it on behalf of Mortgagor, and all sums expended by Mortgagee
in doing so shall be payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand, together with interest at
the highest rate per annum required to be paid pursuant to any promissory note given by
Mortgagor to Mortgagee ("Default Rate"). Neither this paragraph nor Paragraph 8 of this
Mortgage implies that Mortgagee consents to the sale, lease or transfer of the premises or any
interest in them.
4. Taxes and Insurance. Mortgagor shall pay, or cause to be paid, before they
become delinquent, all taxes, assessments and other similar charges levied upon or with respect
to the premises and shall promptly deliver to Mortgagee satisfactory evidence of payment of
them. Mortgagor shall cause all buildings, improvements and other insurable parts of the
premises to be insured against loss or damage by fire, by hazards included within extended
coverage and by other risks that Mortgagee from time to time requires, in amounts and with
insurers that are acceptable to Mortgagee, and Mortgagor shall cause all premiums on the
insurance to be paid when due. Mortgagee shall not, however, require hazard insurance covering
any building or buildings that are part of the premises to be in an amount greater than the
replacement cost of the building or buildings. Within 45 days after Mortgagee notifies
Mortgagor that the premises are located in a special flood hazard area but are not covered by
flood insurance in the amount required by applicable law (including, without limitation, the
C:\Documents and Settings\kao"\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLKCF4\mortgage02.~C\MSOffice
federal Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended), Mortgagor shall obtain and at all times
maintain in effect the required insurance. Each policy evidencing insurance required by this
Paragraph shall provide that loss shall be payable to Mortgagee as its interest shall appear at the
time of the loss, shall contain a standard mortgage clause, shall be in form and substance
acceptable to Mortgagee and shall be delivered to Mortgagee. Each policy shall provide that the
insurer shall give Mortgagee at least 10 days prior written notice of any cancellation of or any
material change in the insurance. Each renewal of each policy shall be delivered to Mortgagee at
least 10 days before the expiration date of the policy. Upon foreclosure of this Mortgage or other
transfer of the premises in satisfaction of the Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of
M01tgagor in and to any insurance policies then in force, including the right to any premium
refund, shall vest in the purchaser or grantee. If there shall occur any destruction of or damage to
the premises, Mortgagor shall give immediate notice to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall have the
right to make proof of the loss or damage, if Mortgagor does not promptly do so. Mortgagee is
authorized to settle, adjust or compromise any claims for loss or damage under any insurance
policy. Mortgagor shall immediately endorse and deliver to Mortgagee all proceeds of any
policy.
5. Maintenance and Repair. Mortgagor shall maintain the premises in good
condition and repair; shall not commit or suffer any waste of the premises; shall not remove,
demolish or substantially alter any building or fixture on the premises without the prior written
consent of Mortgagee; shall cause to be complied with all laws, ordinances, regulations and
requirements of any govermnental authority applicable to the premises or to activities on the
premises; shall promptly repair, restore, replace or rebuild any part of the premises that is
damaged or destroyed by any casualty; and shall promptly pay when due all charges for utilities
and other services to the premises.
6. Mortgagee's Right to Perform; Receiver. If Mortgagor shall default in the
performance of any obligation of Mortgagor under this Mortgage (including, without limitation,
its obligations to keep the premises in good condition and repair, to pay taxes and assessments
and to obtain and maintain insurance), then Mortgagee shall have the right, but shall have no
obligation, to perform, or cause to be performed, the obligation, and Mortgagor shall reimburse
Mortgagee on demand for all sums expended by Mortgagee in doing so, together with interest at
the Default Rate. Mortgagee and any persons authorized by Mortgagee shall have the right to
enter upon the premises at all reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the premises or
effecting maintenance or repairs or taking any other action under the preceding sentence. The
failure of Mortgagor to pay any taxes, assessments or similar charges upon the premises when
due or to obtain and maintain required insurance shall constitute waste and shall entitle
Mortgagee to the appointment by a court of competent jurisdiction of a receiver of the premises
for the purpose of preventing the waste. The receiver, subject to the order of the court, may
collect the rents and income from the premises and exercise control over the premises as the
court shall order. Any payment or performance by Mortgagee, under Paragraph 3 of this
Mortgage, of an obligation that Mortgagor has failed to perform under a lease, land contract or
other agreement, and any exercise by Mortgagee of any right, remedy or option under a lease,
land contract or other agreement, shall not be considered an assumption by Mortgagee of the
lease, land contract or other agreement or of any obligation or liability under it.
C:\Documents and Settings\kari\Local Settings\Temporary lntemet Files\OLKCF4\mortgage02 ~C\JvfSOffice
7. Condemnation. If all or any part of the premises is taken, whether temporarily or
permanently, under power of eminent domain or by condemnation, the entire proceeds of the
award or other payment for the taking shall be paid directly to Mortgagee.
8. Sale or Transfer. If there shall be a sale or transfer, by operation of law or
otherwise, of all or any part of the premises, Mortgagee may deal with the buyer or transferee
with respect to this Mortgage and the Indebtedness as fully and to the same extent as it might
with Mortgagor, without in any way releasing, discharging or affecting the liability of Mortgagor

accelerate payment of the Indebtedness, under Paragraph 11 of this Mortgage, by reason of the
sale or transfer.

the premises.
(c) Mortgagor (i) waives notice of any advances or other extensions of credit

This wood frame single family dwelling has been seriously damaged and is currently
boarded up and falling into a state of disrepair. This building has had most of the
windows broken out and was becoming an attractive nuisance before being boarded up.
The property owner submitted a timeline that does not address all of the issues associated
with this structure and did not give a reasonable period of time for repairs necessary to
make this a habitable structure. This office has had no contact with the property owner
since mid February. If left unabated, this building will continue to deteriorate and be a
blighting influence on the neighborhood.
