between Ms. Veronica Smith of 1161 Creston, Muskegon for the totally
rehabilitated home at 1983 Hoyt for the agreed upon price of $73,000 minus a
subsidy of $5,1 00. The rehabilitation project was named "Second New Moon
Rises". The City of Muskegon obtained the house at 1983 Hoyt from the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development through its "Good Neighbor"
program, where a municipality like the City of Muskegon can obtain a house
from HUD for one dollar if the property stays on the market for more than six
months.
This is the second CNS project to take place on the 1900 block of Hoyt. In 2003
the department demolished a fire damaged structure at 1938 Hoyt and built a
new ranch style home.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The proceeds from the sale will be deposited in the City's
HOME account and used to help finance other projects that the department
has on schedule for this spring and summer.

the sale of the City-owned home at 1983 Hoyt to Ms. Veronica Smith.

C. Aooroval of Sale of City Owned Townhouse/Duplex at 1174-1184
Wood. COMMUNITY & NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To approve the resolution and instruct the Community
and Neighborhood Services department to complete the sale transaction
between Ms. Karen Aubrey of 754 Dimondale Dr., Carson, California for the
newly constructed townhouse/duplex at 117 4-1184 Wood. The In fill project was
entitled Operation Nyumba-Mbili, "It Takes Two". Ms. Aubrey has agreed to the
purchase price of $125,000.
The land where the new townhouse now stands was a former Brownfield where
the Old Briggs Dairy resided for years. The CNS office worked diligently to obtain
ownership of the extremely dangerous building from the State of Michigan.
Once ownership was obtained the original structure was demolished and the
townhouse was built. This is another example of the City's continued aggressive
efforts to redevelop its urban neighborhoods.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The proceeds from the sale will be deposited into the City's
HOME account and used for other projects that the department has scheduled
for this spring and summer.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None

COMMITIEE RECOMMENDATION: The Land Reutilization Committee and the City
Commission approved the purchase and demolition of the Briggs Dairy as well

sale of the City-owned townhouse/duplex at 1174-1184 Wood to Ms. Karen
Aubrey.

D. Sale of Buildable Vacant Lot at 999 Amity Avenue. PLANNING &
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To approve the sale of a vacant buildable lot at 999
Amity Avenue (Parcel #24-142-000-0006-00} to the Community and
Neighborhood Services Department and Trinity Housing. The lot is 60 X 132 ft.
and is being offered to Community and Neighborhood Services Department
and Trinity Housing for $1. This property will be combined with the property
located at 1013 Amity Avenue. A Single family home will be constructed on 999
Amity and 1013 Amity will be used for the yard. Consumers Power has a long
term easement on the property located at 1013 Amity and the proposed home
is too large for the lot due to the easement. The proposed home will have three
bedrooms, two bathrooms, a garage, and will consist of over 1,400 square feet.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The sale of this lot to the adjacent property owner for the
construction of a single family home will generate additional tax revenue for the
City and will place the property back on the City's tax rolls thus relieving the City
of continued maintenance costs. This will also correct the finding against the
City with HUD.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the resolution and to authorize both the
Mayor and the Clerk to sign said resolution and deed.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Land Reutilization Committee
recommended approval of the sale at their regular meeting of January 24, 2006
with the condition that the property be combined with the owner's original
parcel and that they will not qualify for the home design lot credit.
Motion by Commissioner Spataro, second by Commissioner Wierengo to
approve the sale of the buildable vacant lot at 999 Amity Avenue.
ROLL VOTE: Ayes: Warmington, Wierengo, Carter, Davis, Gawron, and Spataro
Nays: None

E. Final Amendments to 2005 Budget. FINANCE
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Adoption of the year-end amendments to the City's
2005 Budget to assure compliance with the State Uniform Budget Act. This act

special revenue funds} be amended so that expenditures are not reported in
the City's audit as exceeding legal appropriations.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: These budget amendments establish the final 2005
authorized revenue estimates and spending limits for the various City
departments and funds.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: Self-explanatory.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION : Approval

February 7, 2006
Dear Commissioners,
You may be aware that a group of employees have formed the H.E.A.L.T.H Committee
of Muskegon. Our goals are to raise health awareness and provide a workout area for
employees of the city. The fitness room is to be located in the City Hall basement.
Recently, several employees embarked on cleaning out the room in the basement. All
departments in the City Hall were notified to remove all pertinent items, so that they
would not be accidentally discarded. Afterwards, we came across several unclaimed
articles of property. The H.E.A.L.T.H Committee would like permission to sell these
unclaimed articles to raise funds to outfit the fitness room.
Thanks you for your time and consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,
~9):)

Subject: Seaway Industrial Park- Progress Report
Date: February 7, 2006
Once again, we have maintained regular direct personal contact with Lona Angullm as the City's
Representative concerning marketing, potential buyers and sale of lots in the Seaway Industrial
Park and Renaissance Zone (SIP&RD). We are providing this Progress Report as another
benchmark for your review and consideration in extending our relationship. (Attached so as not
to duplicate are the previous reports)
1. Marketing Venues - We continue to exceed the Marketing Program in our original
Proposal.
a. WMLAR/SWMRIC- Our MLS is accessible by Brokers/prospective buyers and
the general public. A detail of these "hits" has been attached; however, is
summarized as 13 public and 149 by agents, not including those for lots ah'eady
sold or pending.
b. C&A C01mnercial- We continue to market SIP&RZ on our C&A site- which is
temporarily not tracking "hits".
c. Loopnet Site- Emails have been sent to a total of 592, Prospects from all over
the counlly as a result of this posting and access by interested parties; again not
including lots sold or pending. Although many are duplicate contacts, there is a
good distribution between Brokers vs. Owners.
d. Muskegon Chronicle Homes Magazine- We continue to adve1tise in this
publication.
e. Business Review - Continued Marketing.
f CIMLS - Continued
II. Sales- We have had three sales closed, and one pending under this contract so far,
including the Getty Site.
III. Prospects- We have had a number of prospects which have toured the site and we
have provided our Marketing packets to more. Do the confidential nature of many of
the Prospects we will provide these to you separately when we meet.
Summary- We believe that we have been successful in Marketing the SIP&RZ to a broad
audience of prospective buyers from across the connlly and helped the City secure businesses that
may have moved fi·om the City and a two who moved into the City. Each of these have met the
City's criteria for the Park and in linn created jobs and tax base for the City, all-be-it deferred.
We have enjoyed working with you and would like to extend this relationship. Even in a
somewhat depressed market we have and will perfonn to tl1e best of our abilities.

Subject: Seaway Industrial Park/Getty Street - Progress Report
Date: July 25, 2005
We are providing this second Progress Report as a benchmark for your
review, comment and consideration in extending our relationship and listing
for the next six months.
1. Attached is a copy of the 12110/04 Progress Report to avoid restating
the initial startup activities and explanations ofthe various venues
used in the marketing program for these properties. A review of this
will help to understand the continued message being conveyed to
prospective buyers and brokers.
2. Marketing Venues- The Marketing Program continues to provide
local, state and international venues.
a. SWMRIC/WMLAR- The Seaway lots have been posted on the
Regional MLS since listing. The incentive of 55% commission ·
to other Brokers continues to be offered. Real Estate Agents
have accessed the listings 165 times and the public 10 times.
b. Loopnet- Loopnet is now accessible to 700,000 members. The
listings have attracted 4247 "hits" and 310 emails have been
sent to prospects.
c. CIMLS -Continuous Posting- reporting of "hits" unavailable.
d. Dealmaking@property.com- New web site listing.
e. Cacommercialrealty.com- New web site listing for C&A
Commercial lists subject properties.
f. Michigan Site Network- Continuous Listing on site- reporting
of "hits" unavailable.
g. Business Direct Weekly/West Michigan Business Review-
Advertised since May 2004.
h. Homes Magazine- Advertised since May 2004.
1. Direct Mail- The enclosed letter was sent to 60 presidents/ceos
in western Michigan.
3. Clients/Prospects- We have worked directly with I 7 prospects and
two Brokers which resulted in two sales- the Getty site and one lot in
Seaway. We are currently working with 7 prospects considered
"active". We also presented one offer which was rejected.
4. Muskegon Area First- Packets have been fumished without concrete
results to date.
We continue to believe that the Marketing Program we have instituted for
Seaway Industrial Park is comprehensive and although producing only two
sales to date, should be continued through extension of the listing agreement
for the next six months. We continue to search for additional web sites to
list our properties as the number of intemet initiated searches for real estate
continues to rise and is estimated at between 50-60% today.
Although the direct mailings did not produce a response, we would
anticipate another mailing to 50-60 Michigan companies.
We look forward to discussions of this report and any recommended changes
City Staff believes beneficial to the program.
We can also report that we are experiencing greater activity by buyers and
sellers in the Muskegon Area in the past quarter as compared to the previous
year which translates to better economic conditions and a higher potential
for sales.
Sincerely,
Norman Cunningham Sr.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Bryon Mazade, City Manager; and City Commission
FROM: Robert H. Kuhn, Director of Public Works
DATE: September 22, 2005
RE: Grave Buy-Back Policy
The current "Grave Buy-Back" policy allows for a grave site owner to sell back to the City
the deed to his grave site at a cost equal to one half (1/2) of the current sales price. To my
knowledge, this was a policy of the Cemetery Committee and wasn't brought forth to the
City Commission.
Most people selling grave sites back to the City are not the original owners but are distant
relatives of the original owner. Some of these sites were purchased many years ago at a
cost much less than the current price. In addition, there is a considerable amount of
paperwork and effort to buy back these grave sites.
It is my recommendation to change this policy to minimize the current drain on cemetery
revenues.
1. The City would no longer "buy-back" unutilized grave sites.
2. The City will establish a list of grave sites available that current owners
wish to sell.
3. Current owners will give the City a temporary power of attorney to sell any
available plots on the owner's behalf at a price they have established.
4. The City will charge a commission of20% of private sales.
5. The privately-held sites will be marketed through a bulletin board at the
Cemetery Office and on the City's website.
6. New owners would pay a deed transfer fee of$50.00.
7. Current owners can sell their grave sites on their own, but the new owners
will have to pay the deed transfer fee.

FINDINGS:
1. The City Commission has examined the estimates of cost to construct the project
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 proposed to be assessed in the district
after the improvements have been made. The City Commission determines that the
assessments of costs of the City project will enhance the value of the properties to be
assessed in an amount at least equivalent to the assessment and that the improvement
thereby constitutes a benefit to the propet1y.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
I. The City Commission hereby declares a special assessment district to include the
property set forth in Exhibit A attached to this resolution.
The City Commission detetmines to proceed with the improvements as set fm1h in the
feasibility study and estimates of costs, and directs the City Engineer to proceed with
project design, preparation of specifications and the bidding process. If appropriate and
if bonds are to be sold for the purposes of financing the improvements, the Finance
Department shall prepare plans for financing including submission of application to the
Michigan Department of Treasury and the beginning of bond proceedings.
3. The City Commission hereby appoints a Board of Assessors consisting of City
Commissioners Davis and Wierenga
and the City Assessor who arc hereby directed to prepare an assessment roll.
Assessments shall be made upon front foot basis.
4. Based on the City's Special Assessment policy and preliminary estimates it is expected
that no more than 25% of the cost of the street improvement wi ll be paid by special
assessments.
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 confinnation of the special assessment roll.
This resolution adopted.

ENGINEERING FEASIBILITY STUDY
For
CHERRY ST. FROM WILCOX AVE. TO THOMPSON AVE.
The proposed reconstruction of Cherry was initiated by the property owners abutting that section
of roadway due to the conditions it's in. The proposed reconstruction, we feel, is the only valid
option for that section of road since the conditions have deteriorated well beyond a milling &
resurfacing option. The proposed improvements consist of removal of what is left of the
pavement and reconstruct using a rolled curb & gutter.
A memo from the Assessor's office, which addresses the appraisal and benef1t information is
attached.
The preliminary cost estimate for the work associated with paving is approximately $70,000 with
the length of the project being approximately 466 lineal feet or 744 of assessable front footage.
This translates into an estimated improvement cost of $94 per assessable foot. The assessment
figure will be at a cost not to exceed $32.00 per front foot.
While the actual assessment rate appears to be 34% as presented in the letters to the owners, the
resolution language has been revised to indicate that the assessment will not exceed the 25%
limit upon completion.

Mr. Al-Shatel:
In accordance with your request, I have examined the proposed special assessment
district entailing the reconstruction of Cherry Street between Wilcox Avenue and
Thompson Avenue. The purpose of this analysis is to document the reasonableness of
this special assessment district by identifying and quantifying any accrued benefits. It
is subject to the normal governmental restrictions of escheat, taxation, police power
and eminent domain. The effective date is January 30, 2006.
In conclusion, it is my opinion that the special assessment amounts justly and
reasonably represents the accrued benefits to the properties encompassed by this
project. The amounts reflect the sum ofthe immediate estimated value enhancement
and the intrinsic value that will accrue from an overall increase in property values due
to an improved quality of life created by the proposed project. As previously
presented, the proposed special assessment district encompasses primarily residential
properties. The front foot rate of$32.00 for the reconstruction of the above
mentioned project area appears reasonable in light of an analysis that indicates a
possible enhancement of$33.40. The conclusions are based upon the data presented
within this limited analysis in restricted format, and on supporting infmmation in my
files.
Sincerely,

The City of Muskegon is asking for your support for improvement of the street adjoining your
property located at PROPERTY ADDRESS.
The City of Muskegon believes that by making the proposed street improvements you will
have less road noise, dust, and wear and tear on your vehicle. In addition, street
improvements provide easier access for delivery of services such as snow plowing, mail
delivery, and bus service.
Called a special assessment district, the largest percentage of the proposed street
improvement will be paid for by the City of Muskegon (via local funds and or grants); however,
it will be necessary for you to cover a share of the cost (which you can spread over a period of
ten years) based on the amount of property you own bordering the street. A description of the
project, including the associated cost to you and the City, is located in the documents
attached to this letter.
While the City of Muskegon believes that the proposed improvements will result in a safer and
cleaner street while adding curb appeal to your property, you do have the right to ask further
questions or protest participation in this particular project. Please carefully review the
enclosed materials and call the City's Engineering Department at 724-6707 if you require
more information.
A public hearing is also scheduled for this project on FEBRUARY 14, 2006. If you attend this
public hearing you will be given an opportunity to make comments on the proposed special
assessment district to the commission.
Also located in this packet of materials is a Special Assessment Hearing Response Card. If
mailed back to the City of Muskegon City Clerk's Office before the scheduled public hearing
your vote will be added to the tabulation of votes during the public hearing. If you do not send
in this form your vote counts as "in favor" of the project.
Thank you for your participation in improving the quality of life in the Muskegon community.

NOTICE OF HEARING ON SPECIAL ASSESSMENT
Dear Property Owner:
The Muskegon City Commission is considering whether or not to create a special
assessment district which would assess your property for the following paving project:
CHERRY ST., WILCOX AVE. TO THOMPSON AVE.
The proposed special assessment district will be located as follows:
All parcels abutting Cherry St. from Wilcox Ave. to Thompson Ave.
It is proposed that a portion of the above improvement will be paid by special
assessment against properties in the aforementioned district. Following are conditions
of the proposed special assessment which are important to you.
Public Hearings
An initial public hearing to consider the creation of a special assessment district will be
held at the City of Muskegon City Commission Chambers on FEBRUARY 14, 2006 at
5:30P.M. You are encouraged to appear at this hearing, either in person, by agent or
in writing to express your opinion, approval, or objection concerning the proposed
special assessment. We are enclosing a Hearing Response Card for you to indicate
your agreement or opposition to the special assessment. This card includes the
property identification and description, assessable footage per City policy, and the
estimated cost of the assessment. You may also appear, as above, in lieu of, or in
addition to mailing your response card to the City Clerk. Written objections or
appearances must be made at or prior to the hearing. NOTE: THE SPECIAL
ASSESSMENT WILL BE CREATED OR NULLIFIED AT THIS HEARING. IT IS
IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO COMMENT AT THIS HEARING IF YOU WANT YOUR
OPINION COUNTED FOR THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT.
A second public hearing will be held, if the district is created, to confirm the special
assessment roll after the project is completed. You will be mailed a separate notice for
the second hearing. At this second hearing the special assessment costs will be spread
on the affected properties accordingly. YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT YOU
HAVE A RIGHT TO PROTEST YOUR ASSESSMENT AMOUNT AGAINST YOUR
PARCEL EITHER IN WRITING OR IN PERSON AT THIS HEARING. IF THE SPECIAL

THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF CONFIRMATION OF THE ROLL TO FILE A
WRITTEN APPEAL WITH THE MICHIGAN STATE TAX TRIBUNAL. HOWEVER,
UNLESS YOU PROTEST AT THE INITIAL HEARING OR AT THE SECOND HEARING
CONFIRMING THE ROLL, EITHER IN PERSON, BY AGENT, OR IN WRITING
BEFORE OR AT THE HEARING, YOUR RIGHT TO APPEAL TO THE MICHIGAN TAX
TRIBUNAL WILL BE LOST.
By City Charter, if the owners of more than one-half of the properties to be assessed
shall object to the assessment in writing at or before the hearing, the improvement shall
not be made unless the City Commission determines by affirmative vote of all its
members that the safety or health of the public necessitates the improvement.
Estimated Costs

approximately 34.01% ($23,808.00) will be paid by special assessment to property
owners. Your property's estimated share of the special assessment is shown on the
attached hearing response card. The remaining costs will be paid by the City.
The street assessment, which covers improvements to the roadway, may be paid in
installments over a period of up to ten (1 0) years. Any work on drive approaches or
sidewalks will be assessed to the property at actual contract prices and these costs may
also be paid in installments over ten (10) years. Please note this work is in addition to

improvements may pay their assessment in the following ways:
I. Lump Sum Payment in Full
Assessments may be paid in full within sixty (60) days of the confirmation of the special assessment roll
without interest.
II. Installment Payments
Assessments not paid within the first sixty (60) days may be paid in installments over several years as follows:
Street and Alley Assessments- Ten (10) years equal annual principal payments. For example, if the
amount of your assessment is $850.00, you will be billed $85.00 per year plus applicable interest as
described below.
Driveway, Sidewalk, and Approach Assessments- Ten (1 0) years equal annual principal payments
plus applicable interest as described below.
Interest- Simple interest is charged at the rate of 5.00% per year unless the City has borrowed money
to complete the project for which you are assessed and has pledged you assessments for repayment of
the borrowed money. In such cases, the interest you are charged is equal to the interest rate the City
must pay on the borrowed money plus 1.00%.
Ill. Special Assessment Deferral (Low Income Seniors and Disabled Persons)
To qualify for a special assessment deferral you or your spouse (if jointly owned) must:
• Be 65 years or older or be totally or permanently disabled.

ENGINEERING FEASIBILITY STUDY
For
PARK ST. FROM LAKETON AVE. TO SOUTHERN AVE.
The reconstruction of Park Street between Laketon Ave. & Southern Ave., see attached location
map, was initiated by City staff due the pavement conditions which has deteriorated to a level
where any other types of improvements are not recommended. The project was awarded a
$210,000 of federal funds. The improvements being proposed consists:
1- Complete removal of all existing pavements including curb and gutter and the placement of a
new street cross section pavement that will include a new curb and gutter and new drive
approaches at no additional charges to replace those being removed. Estimated cost is $479,000
2- Replacement of the 1900 water main along with services to the property line.
3- Replacement of sanitary services
A memo from the Assessor's office, which addresses the appraisal and benefit information, is
attached.
The preliminary cost estimate for the work associated with paving is approximately $479,000
with the length of the project being approximately 1600 lineal feet or 2,460.10 of assessable
front footage. This translates into an estimated improvement cost of $195 per assessable foot.
The assessment figure will be at a cost not to exceed $32.00 per front foot.

Mr. Al-Shatel:
In accordance with your request, I have examined the proposed special assessment
district entailing the reconstruction of Park Street between Laketon Avenue and
Southern Avenue. The purpose of this analysis is to document the reasonableness of
this special assessment district by identifying and quantifying any accrued benefits. It
is subject to the normal governmental restrictions of escheat, taxation, police power
and eminent domain. The effective date is January 30, 2006.
In conclusion, it is my opinion that the special assessment amounts justly and
reasonably represents the accmed benefits to the properties encompassed by this
project. The amounts reflect the sum of the immediate estimated value enhancement
and the intrinsic value that will accme from an overall increase in property values due
to an improved quality of life created by the proposed project. As previously
presented, the proposed special assessment district encompasses primarily residential
properties. The front foot rate of$32.00 for the reconstmction of the above
mentioned project area appears reasonable in light of an analysis that indicates a
possible enhancement of$33.96. The conclusions are based upon the data presented
within this limited analysis in restricted fom1at, and on supporting information in my
files.
Sincerely,

The City of Muskegon is asking for your support for improvement of the street adjoining your
property located at PROPERTY ADDRESS.
The City of Muskegon believes that by making the proposed street improvements you will
have less road noise, dust, and wear and tear on your vehicle. In addition, street
improvements provide easier access for delivery of services such as snow plowing, mail
delivery, and bus service.
Called a special assessment district, the largest percentage of the proposed street
improvement will be paid for by the City of Muskegon (via local funds and or grants); however,
it will be necessary for you to cover a share of the cost (which you can spread over a period of
ten years) based on the amount of property you own bordering the street. A description of the
project, including the associated cost to you and the City, is located in the documents
attached to this letter.
While the City of Muskegon believes that the proposed improvements will result in a safer and
cleaner street while adding curb appeal to your property, you do have the right to ask further
questions or protest participation in this particular project. Please carefully review the
enclosed materials and call the City's Engineering Department at 724-6707 if you require
more information.
A public hearing is also scheduled for this project on FEBRUARY 14, 2006. If you attend this
public hearing you will be given an opportunity to make comments on the proposed special
assessment district to the commission.
Also located in this packet of materials is a Special Assessment Hearing Response Card. If
mailed back to the City of Muskegon City Clerk's Office before the scheduled public hearing
your vote will be added to the tabulation of votes during the public hearing. If you do not send
in this form your vote counts as "in favor" of the project.
Thank you for your participation in improving the quality of life in the Muskegon community.

OPINION COUNTED FOR THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT.
A second public hearing will be held, if the district is created, to confirm the special
assessment roll after the project is completed. You will be mailed a separate notice for
the second hearing. At this second hearing the special assessment costs will be spread
on the affected properties accordingly. YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT YOU
HAVE A RIGHT TO PROTEST YOUR ASSESSMENT AMOUNT AGAINST YOUR
PARCEL EITHER IN WRITING OR IN PERSON AT THIS HEARING. IF THE SPECIAL

UNLESS YOU PROTEST AT THE INITIAL HEARING OR AT THE SECOND HEARING

BEFORE OR AT THE HEARING, YOUR RIGHT TO APPEAL TO THE MICHIGAN TAX
TRIBUNAL WILL BE LOST.
By City Charter, if the owners of more than one-half of the properties to be assessed
shall object to the assessment in writing at or before the hearing, the improvement shall
not be made unless the City Commission determines by affirmative vote of all its
members that the safety or health of the public necessitates the improvement.
Estimated Costs
The total estimated cost of the street portion of the project is $479,000.00 of which
approximately 16.44% ($78, 723.20) will be paid by special assessment to property
owners. Your property's estimated share of the special assessment is shown on the
attached hearing response card. The remaining costs will be paid by the City.
The street assessment, which covers improvements to the roadway, may be paid in
installments over a period of up to ten (10) years. Any work on drive approaches or
sidewalks will be assessed to the property at actual contract prices and these costs may
also be paid in installments over ten (1 0) years. Please note this work is in addition to
the street special assessment.
Please refer to the enclosed sheet entitled Special Assessment Payment Options for

I'm writing this letter to be read and noted in minutes of your upcoming February 14,
2006 Special Assessment Hearing regarding the paving of Park Street.
I have enclosed all 3 of the Hearing Response Cards with my " lAM OPPOSED VOTE
" on all 3 parcels that I own.
I do not feel as a $8518 to repave Park Street. We purchased a run down -low tax base
building in 1999. We have since invested thousands of dollars to improve the building
and to generate jobs and business in the City of Muskegon.
We employ over 35 employees in the City of Muskegon. The City collects 1/z% of
payroll tax- (Our annual payroll is over 1 Million Dollars), not to mention over $15,000
per year in personal property tax on all our equipment - and in the past years our personal
property tax has escalated each year and this year is projected to increase another
$10,000. Plus our property taxes on all our parcels continue to escalate year after year.
I can not believe or approve another request by the City to pass on more cost to my
business. I also do not feel it is fair to take a street that has run down buildings, vacated
houses and penalize the businesses that have elected to improve their property.

CROW INVESTMENTS, L.L.C.
I also feel that the City of Muskegon is collecting a huge amount of money from my
businesses already and we get little or no support from the City with anything we attempt
to do.
If it is the City's goal to run all small businesses out of the City- this is the type of thing
that will speed that process up. I have built a business that each and everyday takes
more dollars to stay open and operate in the City of Muskegon.
Just one block South of my building the City approved a Tax Free Zone on that portion of
Park Street. So for those building owners- the assessment is probably no big deal-
since they get numerous tax benefits for being smart enough to locate just a block from
the zone that I'm in. I also question how it can cost $479,000 to simply pave a street.
We have elected to grow two businesses in the City of Muskegon. We are in the process
of looking to expand our buildings. It is clear at this point and time that our future
growth will continue to cost us more dollars to operate in the City of Muskegon. I have
worked very hard to clean up two run down buildings, employee 35 people and pay a
huge amount of taxes to the City on an annual basis .... somewhere that has to be enough.
What business or person can open their mail to yet another request for $8500 to pave a
street that needs far more attention than paving? Look at the building across from mine it
looks terrible and what annual tax basis does it generate and how many jobs?
This assessment is yet another fee that a small business can not take on in addition to the
thousands of dollars you already collect from my companies. If the City wants to retain
small business a much more pro business approach should be looked at.
I appreciate you sharing my thoughts and comments and let the record show my three
"I am Opposed" votes.

ENGINEERING FEASIBILITY STUDY
For
BENTON AVE. & WILLIAMS ST. FROM CHESTNUT ST. TO CATAWBA AVE.
The construction of a new curb & gutter street on Benton & Williams between Chestnut &
Catawba was proposed on the adopted 2006 CIP in an efTort to incorporate the established goal
of eliminating gravel streets from the City's street system into our proposed work. Additional
criteria for the selection were:
I. The need to reduce maintenance cost associated with the upkeep of a gravel road
2. Enhance the appearance of that area
3. improve the drainage facility
The combination of the above reasons makes the selection of this street for improvements an
ideal one.
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 $139,000 with the length of
the project being approximately 950 lineal feet (project length) or 1276'of assessable footage.
This translates into an estimated improvement cost of $108 per assessable foot. The assessment
figure will be at a cost not to exceed $32.00 per assessable foot as established in the 2006 Special
Assessment Rates for this type of improvement
While the actual assessment rate appears to be 29.39% as presented in the letters to the owners,
the resolution language has been revised to indicate that the assessment will not exceed the 25%
limit upon completion.

Mr. Al-Shatel:
In accordance with your request, I have examined the proposed special assessment
district entailing the new construction of Benton Avenue between Williams Street and
Chestnut Street and Williams Street between Catawba Avenue and Benton A venue.
The purpose of this analysis is to document the reasonableness of this special
assessment district by identifying and quantifying any accrued benefits. It is subject
to the normal governmental restrictions of escheat, taxation, police power and
eminent domain. The effective date is January 30, 2006.
In conclusion, it is my opinion that the special assessment amounts justly and
reasonably represents the accrued benefits to the properties encompassed by this
project. The amounts reflect the sum of the immediate estimated value enhancement
and the intrinsic value that will accme from an overall increase in property values due
to an improved quality of life created by the proposed project. As previously
presented, the proposed special assessment district encompasses primarily residential
properties. The front foot rate of$32.00 for the new constmction of the above
mentioned project area appears reasonable in light of an analysis that indicates a
possible enhancement of$34.69. The conclusions are based upon the data presented
within this limited analysis in restricted format, and on supporting information in my
files.
Sincerely,

The City of Muskegon is asking for your support for improvement of the street adjoining your
property located at PROPERTY ADDRESS.
The City of Muskegon believes that by making the proposed street improvements you will
have less road noise, dust, and wear and tear on your vehicle. In addition, street
improvements provide easier access for delivery of services such as snow plowing, mail
delivery, and bus service.
Called a special assessment district, the largest percentage of the proposed street
improvement will be paid for by the City of Muskegon (via local funds and or grants); however,
it will be necessary for you to cover a share of the cost (which you can spread over a period of
ten years) based on the amount of property you own bordering the street. A description of the
project, including the associated cost to you and the City, is located in the documents
attached to this letter.
While the City of Muskegon believes that the proposed improvements will result in a safer and
cleaner street while adding curb appeal to your property, you do have the right to ask further
questions or protest participation in this particular project. Please carefully review the
enclosed materials and call the City's Engineering Department at 724-6707 if you require
more information.
A public hearing is also scheduled for this project on FEBRUARY 14, 2006. If you attend this
public hearing you will be given an opportunity to make comments on the proposed special
assessment district to the commission.
Also located in this packet of materials is a Special Assessment Hearing Response Card. If
mailed back to the City of Muskegon City Clerk's Office before the scheduled public hearing
your vote will be added to the tabulation of votes during the public hearing. If you do not send
in this form your vote counts as "in favor" of the project.
Thank you for your participation in improving the quality of life in the Muskegon community.

BENTON ST. & WILLIAMS ST.,CHESTNUT ST. TO CATAWBA
The proposed special assessment district will be located as follows:
All parcels abutting Benton St. & Williams St. Chestnut St. to Catawba Ave.
It is proposed that a portion of the above improvement will be paid by special
assessment against properties in the aforementioned district. Following are conditions
of the proposed special assessment which are important to you.
Public Hearings
An initial public hearing to consider the creation of a special assessment district will be
held at the City of Muskegon City Commission Chambers on FEBRUARY 14, 2006 at
5:30P.M. You are encouraged to appear at this hearing, either in person, by agent or
in writing to express your opinion, approval, or objection concerning the proposed
special assessment. We are enclosing a Hearing Response Card for you to indicate
your agreement or opposition to the special assessment. This card includes the
property identification and description, assessable footage per City policy, and the
estimated cost of the assessment. You may also appear, as above, in lieu of, or in
addition to mailing your response card to the City Clerk. Written objections or
appearances must be made at or prior to the hearing. NOTE: THE SPECIAL
ASSESSMENT WILL BE CREATED OR NULLIFIED AT THIS HEARING. IT IS
IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO COMMENT AT THIS HEARING IF YOU WANT YOUR
OPINION COUNTED FOR THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT.
A second public hearing will be held, if the district is created, to confirm the special
assessment roll after the project is completed. You will be mailed a separate notice for
the second hearing. At this second hearing the special assessment costs will be spread
on the affected properties accordingly. YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT YOU
HAVE A RIGHT TO PROTEST YOUR ASSESSMENT AMOUNT AGAINST YOUR
PARCEL EITHER IN WRITING OR IN PERSON AT THIS HEARING. IF THE SPECIAL
ASSESSMENT ROLL IS CONFIRMED AT THE SECOND HEARING, YOU WILL HAVE
THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF CONFIRMATION OF THE ROLL TO FILE A
WRITTEN APPEAL WITH THE MICHIGAN STATE TAX TRIBUNAL. HOWEVER,
UNLESS YOU PROTEST AT THE INITIAL HEARING OR AT THE SECOND HEARING
CONFIRMING THE ROLL, EITHER IN PERSON, BY AGENT, OR IN WRITING
BEFORE OR AT THE HEARING, YOUR RIGHT TO APPEAL TO THE MICHIGAN TAX
TRIBUNAL WILL BE LOST.
By City Charter, if the owners of more than one-half of the properties to be assessed
shall object to the assessment in writing at or before the hearing, the improvement shall
not be made unless the City Commission determines by affirmative vote of all its
members that the safety or health of the public necessitates the improvement.
Estimated Costs
The total estimated cost of the street portion of the project is $139,000.00 of which
approximately 29.39% ($40,848.00) will be paid by special assessment to property
owners. Your property's estimated share of the special assessment is shown on the
attached hearing response card. The remaining costs will be paid by the City.
The street assessment, which covers improvements to the roadway, may be paid in
installments over a period of up to ten (1 0) years. Any work on drive approaches or
sidewalks will be assessed to the property at actual contract prices and these costs may
also be paid in installments over ten (10) years. Please note this work is in addition to
the street special assessment.
Please refer to the enclosed sheet entitled Special Assessment Payment Options for
more information on the payment options and financial assistance programs available.
I urge you to return the enclosed hearing response card indicating your preference and
to attend the scheduled public hearing. Your views are important to the City and to your
neighbors. Additional information, including preliminary project plans and cost
estimates is available in the Engineering Department located on the second floor of City
Hall. Regular business hours are from 8:00A.M. to 5:00P.M. Monday through Friday
except holidays.
Sincerely,
Mohammed AI-Shatel, P.E.
City Engineer
Special Assessment Payment Options
Property owners in the City of Muskegon who are being specially assessed for street, sidewalk or other public
improvements may pay their assessment in the following ways:
I. Lump Sum Payment in Full
Assessments may be paid in full within sixty (60) days of the confirmation of the special assessment roll
without interest.
II. Installment Payments
Assessments not paid within the first sixty (60) days may be paid in installments over several years as follows:
Street and Alley Assessments- Ten ( 10) years equal annual principal payments. For example, if the
amount of your assessment is $850.00, you will be billed $85.00 per year plus applicable interest as
described below.
Driveway, Sidewalk, and Approach Assessments- Ten (1 0) years equal annual principal payments
plus applicable interest as described below.
Interest- Simple interest is charged at the rate of 5.00% per year unless the City has borrowed money
to complete the project for which you are assessed and has pledged you assessments for repayment of
the borrowed money. In such cases, the interest you are charged is equal to the interest rate the City
must pay on the borrowed money plus 1.00%.
Ill. Special Assessment Deferral (Low Income Seniors and Disabled Persons)
To qualify for a special assessment deferral you or your spouse (if jointly owned) must:
• Be 65 years or older or be totally or permanently disabled.
• Have been a Michigan resident for five (5) years or more and have owned and occupied the homestead
being assessed for five (5) years or more.
• Be a citizen of the U.S.
• Have a total household income not in excess of $16,823.00
• Have a special assessment of $300.00 or more.
Under this program the State of Michigan will pay the entire balance owing of the special assessment,
including delinquent, current, and further installments. At the time of payment a lien will be recorded on your
property in favor of the State of Michigan. Repayment to the State must be made at the time the property is
sold or transferred or after the death of the owner(s). During the time the special assessment is deferred
interest is accrued at the rate of 6.00% per year.
IV. Further Information About the Above Programs
Further information about any of the above payment options may be obtained by calling either the City
Assessor's Office at 724-6708 or the City Treasurer's Office at 724-6720. Applications may be obtained at
the Muskegon County Equalization Office in the Muskegon County building or City of Muskegon Assessor's
Office in City Hall.
V. Additional Special Assessment Payment Assistance
Qualified low and moderate income homeowners who are being assessed may be eligible for payment
assistance through the City of Muskegon Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. Assistance
from this program will be available to the extent that funds are available. To obtain further information and
determine whether you are eligible, contact the Community and Neighborhood Services Department at
724-6717.

Dear Ms. Kundinger:
We are registering two 'No' votes on the proposed street
improvements for Williams and Benton Streets. For us it is
primarily a matter of timing. No doubt the streets need
improvements. However, in the last few months we have invested
over $25,000 in our yard property at 1311 Williams, already
making significant contributions to up-grading the neighborhood.
To add another $12,000 (almost 30% of the total private amount
requested) to our costs at this time is more than we care to commit
to at this time.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,
MU~EGeN~NST~UCTION COMPANY

Dear Ms. Slaughter:
The Muskegon Summer Celebration Committees are preparing for the
2006 festival to be held Thursday, June 29 through Sunday, July 9. We
are humbly requesting the following from City of Muskegon for the 2006
festival:
• Fireworks permits for July 4 and July 9. Both shows will be shot
from barges over Muskegon Lake. The July 4 show will be the bigger
of the two shoes and therefore anticipate the July 4 show to attract
the larger of the two crowds.
• Permission for exclusive use of Hackley Park from June 26 through
July 9. Use of the park on June 26, 27, & 28 would be to store picnic
tables for use for Art in the Park.
• Permission for the exclusive use of Clay Avenue between Third and
Sixth Streets, and Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Streets between Webster
and Western and the city parking Jot along Western Avenue across
from the LC Walker Arena for Art in the Park/Village Craft Market on

Avenue between Third and Fifth streets on Thursday, June 29 for set
up for the weekend's activities. As part of this weekend, we will be
creating a Bistro on Clay Avenue between Third and Fourth Street.
This will be a fenced in area approximately 80 by 30 with umbrella
tables and chairs. Wine by the glass and bottled beer will be available
in this area. There may also be a single jazz performer playing
throughout the weekend.

This is the ONLY location where these drinks would be available for

the City's HOME account and used to help finance other projects that
the department has on schedule for this spring and summer.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None

RE: Sale of Buildable Vacant Lot at 999 Amity Ave.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
To approve the sale of a vacant buildable lot at 999 Amity Avenue (Parcel #24-142-000-
0006-00) to Community and Neighborhood SeNices Department and Trinity Housing. The
lot is 60 x 132 ft. and is being offered to Community and Neighborhood SeNices
Department and Trinity Housing for $1. This property will be combined with the property
located at 1013 Amity Avenue. A single family home will be constructed on 999 Amity and
1013 Amity will be used for the yard. Consumers Power has a long term easement on the
property located at 1013 Amity and the proposed home is too large for the lot due to the
easement. The proposed home will have three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a garage, and
will consist of over 1,400 square feet.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The sale of this lot to the adjacent property owner for the construction of a single family
home will generate additional tax revenue for the City and will place the property back on the
City's tax rolls thus relieving the City of continued maintenance costs. This will also correct
the finding against the City with HUD.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To approve the attached resolution and to authorize both the Mayor and the Clerk to sign
said resolution and deed.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Land Reutilization Committee recommended approval of the sale at their regular
meeting of January 24, 2006 with the condition that the property be combined with the
owner's original parcel and they will not qualify for the home design lot credit.

approved.
OLD BUSINESS
159 E. Laketon - Sale of a City-owned buildable lot to be combined with the adjacent property at 169 E. Laketon. (tabled from November
meeting). Mr. Hati has asked that this remain tabled.
M. Amrhein atrived at4:07 p.m.
NEW BUSINESS
999 Amity- Request to sell the City-ovm.ed lot at 999 Amity to Trinity Housing Nonprofit. to be combined with the adjacent property at 1013
Amity. H. Mitchell presented the staff report. Trinity Housing and the City's Community & Neighborhood Services (CNS) office are partncring
to build a single family home at 1013 Amity. The lot is 60ft. x 132ft. There is a long-term easement on the property by Consumers Energy.
This makes it difficult to construct the home, as there cannot be any permanent structures built on an casement and electric wires run through the
property. The applicant provided a survey showing the location of the power lines. They do not mn straight through the property, but at an
angle. Due to the power lines, the property would have approximately 50 feet of frontage, tapering to 42.5 feet toward the rear, depending on
how wide the actual casement is. The measurements are based on where the actual power lines are located. Staff has tried to find out how wide
the casement actually is, but Consumer's has not been able to provide that information. The applicants are asking to purchase the City-owned lot
at 999 Amity which is also 60ft. x 132ft., at the non-buildable lot price of$15 ($1 for the lot and $14 to register the deed). They would like to
combine the lots and build the home at 999 Amity, with I 013 Amity being left for the yard. There had been a small home on the property at 1013
Amity. CNS obtained the Jot from the State and demolished the home with the intent that they would construct a new home that would be
handicap-accessible. Due to the new homeowner guidelines they must follow, it was hard to find someone that would qualify. Plans had been
submitted to try to construct the home on the lot at 1013 Amity, but were denied by the city's Code Coordinator because the zoning ordinance
does not allow for a home to be constructed with the length being more than twice the width. The City has owned 999 Amity since 1997. Staff
recommends approval of the sale so the applicants may construct a single family home. This will place the property back on the tax roll and help
beautify the neighborhood.
W. Griffin, director of the City's Community & Neighborhood Services Department (CNS), gave a brief overview of the project. He stated that
Trinity Housing got involved because they had been doing some housing rehabilitation. The idea was that proceeds from the sale of the rehabbed
homes would go back into a pot for rehabilitation of other homes. However, Trinity had kept the funds from the last project for their
administrative costs. This resulted in a finding against the City by HUD. W. Griffin stated that proceeds from the sale of this house would
rectify the finding against the City. Plans previously submitted had problems meeting zoning requirements due to the easement. The purchase of
the City lot would allow the house to meet those requirements. R. Allen asked if the City's relationship with Trinity was fonnal or informal. W.
Griffin stated that it was quasi-formal. HUD requires that 15% of their funding goes to Community Housing Development Organizations
(CHDOs) and Trinity is one, although they haven't been very active the last few years. He thought this would be their first single-family new
construction.
C. Shepherd arTived at 4:16p.m.
R. Allen asked if the proceeds of the house would go to Trinity. W. Griffin stated yes. R. Allen asked what monetary benefit there was to the
City. W. Griffin stated that there would be none, but it would resolve the HUD issue. K. Davis asked if not resolving that issue could affect
future HUD funds. W. Griffin stated it could. H. Mitchell suggested that if this were approved, that a condition be added that none of the home
design lot credits would be available because the sale price was so low. R. Hill asked if the City was going to be funding the project. W. Griffin
stated that they may be helping them with the funding for the infrastructure, but Trinity had a construction loan for the home. R. Allen asked why
the City was assisting with water hook~up and other infrastructure work at no charge. W. Griffin stated that it was to help keep the price of the
house down, and to get the project going as soon as possible. R. Allen asked about the size of the home. W. Griffin stated it would be 1400 to
1500 square feet with three bedrooms, 2 bathroOms, and with an attached garage.
A motion to recommend approval to the City Commission of the sale of the City-owned property at 999 Amity to Trinity Housing for the non-
buildable lot price of $15, to be combined with the adjacent property at 1013 Amity with the condition that the home design lot credits would not
apply, was made by K. Davis, supported by M. Amrhein and unanimously approved.

RE: Final Amendments to 2005 Budget
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Adoption of the year-end amendments (provided
under separate cover) to the City's 2005 Budget to assure compliance with the State
Uniform Budget Act. This act requires that budgets for "governmental-type" funds (i.e.
general fund and special revenue funds) be amended so that expenditures are not
reported in the City's audit as exceeding legal appropriations.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: These budget amendments establish the final 2005
authorized revenue estimates and spending limits for the various City departments
and funds.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: Self-explanatory.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: A report will be presented and reviewed
at the Committee of the Whole meeting on Monday, February 13, 2006.

Re: March 3rd fundraiser
The State said he needs a local resolution for license raffle.
Organizations benefiting from the raffle:
1) MSJams @ Frauenthal
2) Disability Connection
3) Community Health Project
Bryon said he doesn't need to go on the agenda. A representative can show up at the City Commission meeting tonight
and speak during public participation. The form can be signed by the City Commission and filled out after the fact.
