Re: Temporary sign regulations
Background
Earlier this year the City Commission asked staff to look into relaxing the temporary sign
regulations as they relate to banners because several businesses had expressed concern
that our regulations were too stringent.
Before drafting new language for temporary signs, we sent letters to area businesses
asking for their thoughts regarding temporary signs. We used the Yellow Pages and our
computerized map with assessor's data to find:
3 8 Sign companies
27 business contacts on Apple
56 business contacts on Laketon
40 business contacts on Getty
23 business contacts on Henry
29 business contacts on Lakeshore
3 3 business contacts on Sherman
Total 246
We gave our contacts 30 days to reply and comments trickled in for about 45 days. As a
result of our solicitation, we received several calls and letters. The letters came from Port
City Signs, Muskegon Awning, RC Productions, and Betten Chevrolet (attached).
Following is a summary of the phone comments:
Pizza Hut: "Depends heavily on banners to promote new products."
Doom Investments: "Banners are too strict now, but does not want to see them
proliferate."
Auto Zone: "Stores like to use banners for advertising products like wiper blades,
for example, they have a bmmer that says "Have you changed your wiper blades
lately"
Tuffy: "In favor of allowing restrictions to stay neat but like to use banners."
Roy Grewal: "14 days is too sho1i, more time is needed for grand openings and
special occasions."
Bill Wipperforth of 1734 Getty "Banner regulations are a little too restrictive.
Should be available on a sh011 term basis for people who have special sales."
Staff also talked to RC Productions, Muskegon Awning, and Port City Signs as a follow-
np to their letters to better understand where they were coming from.
Recommendation
Permit banners and require a certain level of quality regarding materials, use and
placement.
CITY OF MUSKEGON

OVERVIEW
For governments, crises occur in all different shapes and sizes, and at all times of the day
and night. Because government serves and affects so many different constituencies, a
government crisis often affects many people, businesses and organizations. In fact, a
government crisis can affect every person, business and organization in our community.
Any crisis or disaster becomes a matter of public record as soon as local emergency
personnel arrive. Such events are newsworthy. We must work the media. Control them
or they control you.
What we say, when we say it and how we say it will help determine how well we manage
the crisis information for our most important constituencies - our citizens and the media
who report our actions to the community.
More information for our public sooner is better than little or no information later. In a
crisis this simple strateb'Y is our goal.
In short, we will be:
• Prepared and Proactive
• Responsive
• Honest
Whenever possible during a cns1s, media interviews should be handled by a single
spokesperson. All news releases and written statements released to the news media
should be reviewed by the Mayor, City Manager or designee, and (when appropriate)
legal personnel prior to release.
Never comment to the news media "off the record." And never say "No Comment".
3
CRISIS PLAN PURPOSE
This plan provides guideline for the release of information to the news media.
A clear understanding of media issues must be developed. Who releases what? The
timeliness and accuracy of the information is very important. Plans should be made early
on in the incident to include the media. Questions need to be addressed regarding
entrance to an incident area and what information is given to the media. It is important
that those on the scene providing assistance know what information the media is
broadcasting to the public.
This plan is designed to aid management decision making, promote effective use of
resources and support compliance with regulatory agencies, facility and company
requirements and policies. This plan in no way is intended to provide an answer for
every problem or situation the City of Muskegon and its community may encounter, but
to set a stage where they can be managed in a calm and professional manner.
If an incident/crisis/emergency is site specific those owners/operators must be an integral
part of any P .I. 0. team. All statements must be issued jointly to preclude different
"messages".
It is designed to complement - bnt not replace - existing emergency response plans
as well as policies and procedures that may deal with specific crisis situations in
more detail.
4
CRISIS COMMUNICATIONS PLAN
Shall Include
• Media Policy Guidelines that state who is in charge of handling the media. Who is
our community's first response spokesperson. It should specify who is in charge of
handling media, gathering the facts, taking questions, presenting answers on the
record, providing background information, informing city officials, city departments
and employees.
• A fact sheet or two about our community (year founded, population, square miles,
annual budget, important attractions, number of schools/students, top employers, etc.)
Assemble these in Media Kits.
• List of key individuals (mayor, commission, city manager, department heads).
(Not for public distribution)
• Contact Lists: Internal ( attorneys, police, fire), and External (media,)
• Mobilization Strategy. If a crisis occurs, where does the response team initially meet,
does the room/building have phones, fax machine, Internet access, bathrooms, a place
to meet with the media, radios to communicate with police and fire, other city
responders. Who from the city responds/mobilizes ? Who is responsible for getting
people there ?
JPIC - Depends on site of event, size of event and duration of event.

PLAN OF ACTION:
The City of Muskegon recognizes the public's right to have access to public records and
relevant information, and the news media's right to report matters of public interest.
Michigan's Freedom oflnformation Act (F.O.I.A.) governs access to and release of
public records and information. We will follow FOIA 1,>uidelines. In accordance with
this law, the policy of City of Muskegon to release all information in a manner, which
does not jeopardize the city or any others, involved. This shall be done through the
designated FOIA representative (Lee Slaughter)
The city will provide information on matters of public concern to the public through the
news media .. By doing so a mutually beneficial relationship of trust, cooperation and
respect can be maintained.
Information will be released to the media without partiality.
8
WHAT CONSTITUTES A CRISIS?
A crisis is any incident that can potentially create significant controversy or negative
public opinion and can adversely affect our organization's ability to function in its
normal fashion.
An incident does not have to involve deaths, injuries or property damage to be a crisis. In
the event of a "disaster" ( varying degrees) - in which casualties from either external or
internal sources cannot be dealt with under normal operating circumstances - The
Emergency Management Team will always be activated.
Potential crises include:
(1) Disaster such as a tornado, fire, explosion, airplane crash, train derailment,
automobile/bus accident, terrorist attack, etc.
(2) Fire, explosion, chemical (or radiation) release, building collapse. Situation
leading to evacuation of part or all of the building. Power system or computer
system failure.
(3) Allegation of sexual harassment, racial discrimination, etc. Drug abuse by
employees.
(4) Hostage, shooting, poisoning, murder, (infant) kidnapping, robbery, rape, etc., on
city property, or by a city employee.
(5) Investigation by regulatory or law enforcement agency.

RE: Vulnerability Assessment Proposal
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
To accept the proposal by Tetra Tech MPS to perform a Vulnerability
Assessment of the City's water system as required by the Environmental
Protection Agency.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Proposal cost of $28,000.00
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
May require a budget amendment if funds cannot be found within other
line items, as the proposal was not budgeted.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Recommend Mayor and Commission endorses the proposal from Tetra
Tech MPS and enters into contract for performance of the Vulnerability
Assessment at a cost of $28,000.00
MEMORANDUM
MAY 28, 2003
TO: R. KUHN, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
FROM: R. VENEKLASEN, WATER FILTRATION PLANT
RE: VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT PROPOSAL
BACKGROUND OF REGULATION
Following the events of September 11, 2001; the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) requires all public water systems serving a population greater than 3,300 to
perform a Vulnerability Assessment (VA) and subsequently formulate an Emergency
Response Plan (ERP). In our case a Vulnerability Assessment must be completed and
submitted to EPA by years end. We must complete and submit an Emergency
Response Plan within the six month following the submission of the Vulnerability
Assessment.
Large water systems, those serving populations over 100,000, were provided Federal
funds to complete the initial round of Vulnerability Assessments by the end of last year.
Initially medium size systems, such as Muskegon, were to receive funding but the bill
went unsigned by the President, and died. This occurred in the fall of last year - after
the 2003 budget was established.
INITIAL APPROACH
Due to the lack of Federal funding we explored the possibility of performing the
Vulnerability Assessment "in-house". Bruce Straley attended a RAM-W, Sandia
Laboratories Methodology, training course. This course is EPA and American Water
Works Association approved. Additionally, other methodologies such as the VSAT™
"water'' program, produced by the American Metropolitan Sewer Agencies (AMSA) were
explored. Final evaluation of the process, regardless of method, revealed that meeting
the Vulnerability Assessments and Emergency Response Plan requirements required
too much staff time to complete.
PROPOSAL
It was determined to solicit a proposal from our consultant, Tetra Tech MPS, due to their
familiarity with our plant and water distribution system. Further, they could incorporate
the planned plant changes into both the Vulnerability Assessment and Emergency
Response Plan documents by virtue of their knowledge of the design and intended
operation.
Following a review of the initial cost proposal of $50,900.00 for the Vulnerability Study
alone, it was decided to request an amended proposal for a bare-bones Vulnerability
Assessment only. The amended proposal reduces the involvement and effort by out-of-
state engineering staff and includes only one workshop on the report findings. It does,
however, include an optional additional cost for a security consultant review - should we
determine the need. The final document will meet the requirements set forth by EPA
and provide the guidance to address security vulnerabilities.
This approach allows us to focus more effort and funds on the Emergency Response
Plan - the "nuts & bolts" of what is done in the event of an emergency. More
importantly, this allows us to properly plan and budget for the Emergency Response
Plan to be completed early in 2004.
Included is a copy of the amended proposal for your review.
RECOMMENDATION
It is my recommendation that we accept the proposal from Tetra Tech MPS for a cost of
$28,000.00. I suggest we evaluate the need for the optional security review during the
latter stage of the project to determine if it is a warranted addition.

CITY OF MUSKEGON
PLANNING COMMISSION
REGULAR MEETING
June 12, 2003
Hearing; Case 2003-23: Staff-initiated request to rezone multiple properties in the portion
of the city known as Area 11, bounded generally by Pine St., Walton Ave., Ryerson Creek,
Kenneth St., and Irwin Ave.
BACKGROUND
This case is a continuation of the 'blight fight' effort begun by the City Commission last year.
So far the entire area bounded by Peck St., Southern Ave., Seaway Dr. and Apple Ave. has been
studied and paiis of it rezoned, as 'Area IO' and 'Area 1Ob'.
The current target area for the blight fight effo1i is labeled 'Area 11 ', and encompasses the area
bounded by Walton St., Ryerson Creek, Kenneth St., Irwin Ave., and Pine St. This ai·ea contains
I, 148 parcels. Staff has conducted a land use survey and sent out letters to property owners
asking them to verify that the land use we have on record for their property is correct. A land use
map of Area 11 is included in this packet.
Based on the land use survey and Master Plan recommendations for this area, staff is proposing
to rezone many of the pai·cels in Area 11. A mailing has been sent to every property owner and
tenant of record, both within Area 11 and within 300 feet of the boundaries of Area 11,
informing them that this rezoning is being proposed and discussed by the Planning and City
Commissions. Approximately 2,000 letters were sent out in this rezoning effmi.
The current zoning of many of the residential properties within Area 11 (see enclosed map
labeled 'Cunent Zoning') is either RT, Two-Family Residential or RM-1, Low Density Multiple-
Family Residential. There is also an area on the east side of Area 11 which is currently zoned R-
I, Single-Fainily Residential. The land use survey showed that although there are many existing
multi-family dwellings within the area, the majority ofresidential properties do contain single-
family homes. Therefore, staff is proposing to rezone most of the RT and RM-I zoned
residential prope1iies to R-1, Single-Family Residential. Any existing multi-family units would
be permitted to remain as legal nonconforming uses, but no further single-family homes would
be able to be converted to multi-family units. Existing multi-family developments such as Cogic
Village and Bayview Towers would remain as currently zoned (RM-I and RM-3, respectively).
Some RT and RM-I zoning would remain, but would be focused along Apple Ave. and Wood St.
where many multi-family uses are concentrated and where they would act as a buffer between
commercial areas and the primarily single-family area more interior to the neighborhood.
The western edge of Area 11 is currently zoned B-5, Governmental Services. Staff is not
proposing any changes to this zoning. Along Apple Ave. ai·e many existing commercial
City of Muskegon Planning Commission- 6/12/03
buildings, most of which are currently zoned either B-2, Convenience & Comparison Business or
B-4, General Business. Staff is proposing to downzone most of the B-4 properties to B-2,
leaving only the Goodwill property zoned as B-4. Staff is also proposing to downzone some of
the B-2 properties to B-1. This approach is intended to keep Apple Ave. from becoming more
heavily commercialized while still allowing the types of commercial uses which are more
compatible with the surrounding residential area. As Goodwill is located closer to the downtown
and the existing B-5 area, staff does not see any need to make this use nonconforming by
downzoning it.
There is a small pocket of industrial zoning along the southern edge of Area 11. This area is
currently zoned 1-1, Light Industrial because there have historically been several existing
industrial uses there. Staff is proposing to leave most of this area as currently zoned, while
changing some properties more adjacent to the neighborhood to B-1.
A map of the proposed zoning for Area 11 is included in this packet.
DELIBERATION
Criteria-based questions typically asked during a rezoning include:
I. What, if any, identifiable conditions related to the petition have changed which justify the
petitioned change in zoning.
2. What are the precedents and the possible effects of precedent which might result from the
approval or denial of the petition.
3. What is the impact of the amendment on the ability of the city to provide adequate public
services and facilities and/or programs that might reasonably be required in the future if the
petition is approved.
4. Does the petitioned zoning change adversely affect the enviromnental conditions or value of
the surrounding property.
5. Does the petitioned zoning change generally comply with the adopted Future Land Use
Plan of the City.
6. Are there any significant negative environmental impacts which would reasonably occur if
the petitioned zoning change and resulting allowed structures were built such as:
a. Surface water drainage problems
b. Waste water disposal problems
c. Adverse effect on surface or subsurface water quality
d. The loss of valuable natural resources such as forest, wetland, historic
sites, or wildlife areas.
City of Muskegon Planning Commission - 6/12/03 2
7. Is the proposed zoning change a "Spot Zone"?
a. Is the parcel small in size relative to its surroundings?
a. Would the zoning change allow uses that are inconsistent with those
allowed in the vicinity?
b. Would the zoning change confer a benefit to the property owner that is
not generally available to other properties in the area?
c. A spot zone is appropriate if it complies with the Master Plan.
