Re:     Liquor License Transfer



Chief Kleibecker,

The Muskegon Police Department has received a request from the Michigan Liquor
Control Commission for an investigation from applicant AGZ, Inc. of313 W. Laketon
Ave., Muskegon, Ml.

AGZ, Inc. requests to transfer ownership of2007 Class C-SDM licensed business with
Dance-Entertainment Permit from The Castle Inn, Inc. located at 313 W. Laketon Ave,
Muskegon, Mi. AGZ, Inc. is comprised of Scott Miller of 3147 Lakeshore Drive,
Muskegon, Ml. Mr. Miller does have experience in the alcohol serving industry and had
been made aware of the police department's position of enforcing local alcohol laws and
ordinances.

A check ofMPD records and Criminal History showed no reason to deny this request.

Respectfully submitted,




Det. Kurt Dykman

To:     Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners

From:      Finance Director

RE: MERS       Health Care Savings Program Enabling Resolution



SUMMARY OF REQUEST:                   The attached resolution authorizes the city to participate in the
MERS Health Care Savings Program (HCSP). HCSP is a program that allows employees to set aside
funds in a tax-favored account to use for post-employment medical purposes. Funds are contributed to
individual employee accounts before tax withholding and are not taxed at time of withdrawal if used for
eligible medical purposes.

The city benefits from adopting HCSP in two ways:

    •   Wages allocated to the HCSP are exempt from FICA/Medicare taxes for both employee and
        employer. Thus for every $100 in salary directed to HCSP, the city (and employee) each save
        $7.65 in FICA/Medicare taxes that would otherwise be paid.

    •   The program establishes an efficient means for employees to fund their own retiree healthcare
        expenses. The city provides basic retiree healthcare coverage, but there are many areas not
        covered. As it is unlikely the city will be extending this coverage, the HCSP is a good tool to help
        employees save to meet future healthcare needs.

At this time we are recommending that the resolution be adopted so that the program is ready for use in
the future. The first actual use would likely be for non-union employees as part of the 2008 salary and
benefit changes (considered by the Commission in December). Some unions have expressed interest
as well and we would like to have the program available for discussion in negotiations.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:            Potential FICA/Medicare savings to the city.

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:                     None. The program entails no direct costs to the city (other
than minor administrative costs) but may result in significant FICA/Medicare tax savings, depending on
the extent to which it is adopted by employee groups.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:                    Approval.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:                         None.

are paid on amounts paid out since they must be used to                       MERS Insurance Services
reimburse health insurance premiums or used to cover
out-of-pocket medical expenses. This tax advantage                                   (800) 767-6377

such participating municipalities and courts have full membership, representation and voting

      WHEREAS, the Board also acts as investment fiduciary for those participating
employers who are non-MERS participating municipalities and courts that have adopted the
