g. Amendment to City of Muskegon Groundwater Ordinance. PLANNING &
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: On August 26, 1997, the City Commission adopted Ordinance
. No. 1133. The ordinance was for the purpose of prohibiting the use of secondary water sup-
plies from groundwater wells for the delivery of water for human consumption, and the use
of wells which may influence the movement of contaminated groundwater. The existing or-
dinance has not been easy to administer, and the MDEQ has some concerns with it. For that
reason, the City Commission is requested to amend the current ordinance.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the ordinance and authorize the Mayor and City
Clerk to sign it. The major change in the amended ordinance involves the mapping of par-
cels directly affected by contaminated plumes of groundwater. The previous ordinance de-
fined an "affected premises" as a parcel within one-quarter mile of a plume. There was a
major difficulty with mapping and notification, and it was very time consuming. It is much
more efficient to confine the ordinance's effects to identified parcels having contaminated
groundwater. It is expected that the identifications will come from those involved in sites
where releases under Part 201 or Part 213 have occurred. Additional provisions directly pro-
hibit irrigation in the newly defined affected premises, a direct obligation to notify the county
health department by delivering and updating the county with copies of the ordinance and
all amendments. The MDEQ has been notified of the proposed amendments, in a letter sent
on November 7, 2000 (they are required to receive a 30 day notice prior to the City Commis-
sion modifying the ordinance). The MDEQ has not indicated that they have any concerns
with the amendments.

MICHIGAN COASTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM GRANT AGREEMENT
CITY OF MUSKEGON
Lakeshore Trail - Phase I Design
This grant agreement, executed _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , constitutes an
agreement between the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (hereafter
called the Department, Land and Water Management Division, Chief Richard A.
Powers, the grant officer) and the city of Muskegon (hereafter called the Grantee).
Under this grant agreement, the Grantee will perform the activities outlined in Exhibit A,
and the Department will pass through federal Coastal Zone Management (CZM) grant
funds to the Grantee in support of the work up to the specified share of total eligible
costs. Except where otherwise specified, the Grantee will perform the work described
in Exhibit A according to the general provisions (Exhibit B), and if construction is
involved in the project, according to the construction provisions (Exhibit C). Payment
will be made for reimbursable expenditures upon completion of this phase of the
project.
1. Grant Agreement Period. The period of this grant agreement extends from
October 1, 2000 to December 30, 2001.
2. Funding. Federal funds provided by the Department will be a sum not to exceed
$30,000, representing the Michigan Coastal Management Program (MCMP) grant
for work elements listed in Exhibit A. An equal amount of match is required from the
Grantee, as shown in the budget in Exhibit A.
3. Quarterly Reporting and Payments. As well as conferring periodically with the
MCMP, the Grantee will file quarterly financial and progress reports as described in
Exhibit A for each three-month period after the beginning date of the grant
agreement. Upon written request by the Grantee, the Department will make an
advance payment amounting to $7,500 (25 percent of the total grant). An advance
payment does not require a financial report form, but does require a letter requesting
the specific dollar amount of the payment as indicated in the grant agreement.
Subsequent quarterly payments will be made upon request and receipt of financial
and progress reports from the Grantee. These quarterly payments will be in
reimbursement of actual expenditures, with the following qualifications: (a) it is not
necessary to use up the advance payment before applying for reimbursement;
(b) reimbursement for salaries and fringe benefits must be reasonable and
proportionate to activities and accomplishments reported; and (c) the total of the
outstanding advance plus the intermediate quarterly reimbursement payments shall
not exceed $22,500 (75 percent of the total grant).
1
The Grantee's financial and progress reports are to be submitted within 30 days
after the end of a quarterly period on forms supplied by the Department. The
financial report shall specify total expenditures for the quarterly period (see Exhibit A
under Reporting Requirements, Quarterly Reportings). The progress report will
summarize accomplishments with respect to project elements and degree of
completion. The financial and progress reports will cover progress under any
subcontracts involved in this project.
4. Changes. Changes, including any increase or decrease in the amount of the
Grantee's compensation, changes in the scope of work, or extension of the project
deadline which are mutually agreed upon by and between the Department and the
Grantee, shall be incorporated in written amendments to this grant agreement and
must be approved in advance. The Grantee must notify the Department of the need
for an extension of the project deadline by August 20 of the grant agreement period.
5. Closeout and Final Report. The Grantee's Final Report shall be submitted within
45 days following the end of the grant agreement period. The Final Report shall
include a financial report that specifies total expenditures, including match, for the
final quarterly period and Fiscal Year to date. In addition, the Grantee will submit
any work products resulting from completion of the project. (Refer to Exhibit A
under Reporting Requirements, Final Report.)
The final payment, in reimbursement of expenditures not covered in previous
payments, is subject to a state audit of total project costs. In addition to the
summary documentation submitted to the Department, the Grantee will keep
complete financial records such that all charges, whether paid from CZM grant funds
or from the Grantee's funds, can be readily traced to their origins. Basic documents
required to be maintained for audit include purchase orders, vouchers authorizing
payments, time records/activity reports for individual employees' hours charged to
the grant project, etc.
6. Publication Rights. The Department and the Grantee are both free to publish
findings from this project with acknowledgments as specified in paragraph 15,
Exhibit B. The Grantee may copyright any work that is subject to copyright and was
developed, or for which ownership was purchased under this grant. The federal
awarding agency (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) reserves a
royalty-free, non-exclusive, and irrevocable right to reproduce, publish, or otherwise
use the work for federal purposes and to authorize others to do so.
7. Disclosure. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of Exhibit B, the Grantee is free
to release any information produced under this grant agreement, provided proper
acknowledgment is given.
2
8. Audit Requirement. Grantees spending $300,000 or more in federal funds in their
Fiscal Year shall have a single audit performed in compliance with Circular A-133.
This audit must be performed and copies provided to the appropriate agencies
within nine months from the end of the Grantee's Fiscal Year. If you receive
$300,000 or more from the Department, you must submit a copy of the audit report
to the Office of Internal Audit at the following address:

agreement certify by their signatures that they are authorized to sign this grant
agreement on behalf of their agencies, and that the parties will fulfill the terms of this
agreement including the attached exhibits.

currently purchasing property to construct the trail. The trail will run along Muskegon
Lake and is just north of the CSX railroad. This project will provide the construction
documents and exact location of the trail. While much of this phase will be constructed
through 16-foot corridors purchased for this purpose, the route through city-owned
property and properties purchased like Amoco still needs to be determined. In order to
facilitate future construction, the city would like to get the final design completed to
foster construction when funds become available. Elements include finalizing trail route;
providing detailed construction drawings and bid specifications, and providing detailed
cost estimates for construction of the trail.

RE: Amendment to City of Muskegon Groundwater
Ordinance
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: On August 26, 1997, the City Commission adopted
Ordinance No. 1133. The ordinance was for the purpose of prohibiting the use of
secondary water supplies form groundwater wells for the delivery of water for human
consumption, and the use of wells which may influence the movement of
contaminated groundwater. The existing ordinance has not been easy to administer,
and the MDEQ has some concerns with it. For that reason, the City Commission is
requested to amend the current ordinance.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the attached ordinance and authorize the
Mayor and City Clerk to sign it. The major change in the amended ordinance
involves the mapping of parcels directly affected by contaminated plumes of
groundwater. The previous ordinance defined an "affected premises" as a parcel
within one-quarter mile of a plume. There was a major difficulty with mapping and
notification, and it was very time consuming. It is much more efficient to confine the
ordinance's effects to identified parcels having contaminated groundwater. It is
expected that the identifications will come from those involved in sites where releases
under Part 201 or Part 213 have occurred. Additional provisions directly prohibit
irrigation in the newly defined affected premises, a direct obligation to notify the
county health department by delivering and updating the county with copies of the
ordinance and all amendments. The MDEQ has been notified of the proposed
amendments, in a letter sent on November 7, 2000 (they are required to receive a 30
day notice prior to the City Commission modifying the ordnance). The MDEQ has
not indicated that they have any concerns with the amendments.
CITY OF MUSKEGON
MUSKEGON COUNTY, MICHIGAN
ORDINANCE NO. 2039
An ordinance amending the City code concerning water service, repealing and amending
sections of the code, and prohibiting the use of certain wells and secondary water supplies from
certain groundwater wells for the delivery of water for human consumption and irrigation, and
the use of wells which may influence the movement of contaminated groundwater.
THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MUSKEGON HEREBY ORDAINS:
I. Sections 24-46 through 24-52.1 of the Muskegon City Code are hereby amended, and
renumbered sections 24-52.2 through 24-52.5 are added:
Section 24-46 Findings and Definitions.
The City Commission finds that the use of wells and secondary water supplies from wells
for the delivery or use of water from or on cetiain premises for human consumption or
irrigation, or the use of wells which influence the movement of contaminated
groundwater, constitutes a potential public health risk. The identified public health risk
affects premises that are located in the vicinity of sites that are the source or location of
contamination of groundwater, or where there is a known and identified threat of
contaminated groundwater from a release. The Commission has determined to prohibit
ce1iain uses of water from wells and secondary water supplies from such properties in
order to protect against and minimize the said public health risk. For purposes of
Sections 24-46 through 24-52.5, the following definitions shall apply:
.I The term "secondary water supplies" shall mean only secondary water
supplies from wells .
.2 The term "affected premises" shall mean a parcel of property any part of
which is located within an appendix map made a part of this ordinance, as originally
enacted or as amended, which map shows the parcel to have contaminated groundwater
under any part of the parcel.
.3 The term "Appendix Map" shall mean a map derived from a plat or other
map, or information relating to land in the City showing parcels which have contaminated
groundwater under any part of the parcel. Said map or maps shall be added or deleted by
amendment to this ordinance.
G:\COMMON\5\GTJ\C-ORD\WELL. ORD
The City, in its Department of Planning and Community Development, or
such other department designated by the City Manager (who shall notify the MDEQ of
any change), will maintain and publish notice of a listing of the appendix maps by
general location of the known geographical locations of affected premises, identifying
same by property tax identification and tax assessment parcel numbers. The
identification may be included in appendix maps. The listing and a copy of this
ordinance will be maintained in the same manner as a zoning ordinance at the said City
department and the list shall be reviewed and the ordinance amended as necessary
whenever the City is supplied with reliable information of such affected premises.
Review and amendment of the ordinance shall also occur whenever the City receives
written notice from the MDEQ that it is considering approval of a Remedial Action Plan
or equivalent action which relies on this ordinance as an institutional control to prevent
groundwater use by adding the necessary affected premises to the ordinance. Interested
parties may petition the City to add new amendments by appendix maps, or to delete
parcels by amendment, if it can be shown that such affected premises no longer poses a
public health risk.
.4 The term "human consumption" means use in food or drink intended for
human ingestion, use in food preparation or food service, use in the interior of a dwelling
or dwelling unit served by such well or secondary water supply for any household
purpose, and use in any building for personal washing or ingestion by humans. The term
"human consumption" does not mean use of water for irrigation .
.5 The term "MDEQ" means the Michigan Department of Environmental
Quality, or its successor agency .
.6 The term "contamination" means groundwater contamination in
concentrations that exceed the residential drinking water criteria established by the
MDEQ pursuant to Part 201, Environmental Remediation, of the Natural Resources and
Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended, by operational memorandum
or rule.
Section 24-47 Prohibition of the Use ofSecondary Water Supplies for Human
Consumption or Irrigation: Exceptions.
24-47.1 Prohibition. Unless specifically excepted by this ordinance after the
effective date of this ordinance, the use of any secondary water supply or well from or on
affected premises, or the use of water from said sources for human consumption or
irrigation, is prohibited. No new groundwater wells may be installed on affected
premises unless use of such well is solely for commercial or industrial non-contact
cooling or processing purposes, construction de-watering, MDEQ or United States
Environmental Protection Agency approved groundwater monitoring or remediation
systems, or public emergency.
G:ICOMMON\5\GTJ\C-ORD\WELL.ORD
24-47.2 Exception: Water Service Unavailable; Human Consumption. If City
water service is unavailable to an affected premises, and a well is tested and the test
results are approved by the MDEQ, Drinking Water and Radiological Protection Division
annually, and written proof thereof is delivered to the City annually, a well may be used
temporarily for water for human consumption until the City water service is available to
the premises. No split or conveyance of any premises shall be effective to render City
water service unavailable. In the event of a split or conveyance, no occupancy or

clause.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

I. A hearing has been held on FEBRUARY 22, 2000 at 5:30 o'clock p.m. at the
City Commission Chambers. Notice was given by mail and publication as
required by law.
2. That estimates of costs of the project, a feasibility report and valuation and benefit
information are on file with the City and have been reviewed for this hearing.
3. At the hearing held FEBRUARY 22, 2000, there were 44. 28 % objections by the
owners of the property in the district registered at the hearing either in writing received
before or at the hearing or by owners or agents present at the hearing, and the
Commission has considered the advisability of proceeding with the project.
FINDINGS:
1. The City Commission has examined the estimates of cost 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 property.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
1. The City Commission hereby declares a special assessment district to include the
property set forth in Exhibit A attached to this resolution.
2. The City Commission determines to proceed with the improvements as set forth 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 Schweifler and Benedict
and the City Assessor who are 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 approximately 8.39% of the cost of the street improvement will 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 assess\!d of the hearing at which the

MANPOWER
November 17, 2000
Herman Harris
City of Muskegon
9 33 Terrace Street
Muskegon, Michigan 49440
Dear Herman:
Manpower International Inc. appreciates the long-term business relationship with the City
of Muskegon. We welcome the opportunity to extend the contract for temporary
employment services to the City of Muskegon for the year 2001.
This letter is to confirm that we are willing to honor the agreements within the current
contract with one change. This change is the bill rate for two office positions listed in the
current contract--Administrative Secretary and Account Clerk I. The pay rates for office
temporary employees in Muskegon County have risen 9. 8% since January 1998 when the
current contract began. In order to maintain the quality of employees for the City by
offering competitive wages, Manpower will need to increase the hourly rates for the two
office positions in the contract by 3%. This will take the hourly bill rate for the
Administrative Secretary from $9.35 to $9.63. The hourly bill rate for the Account Clerk
will need to increase from $8. 76 to $9.02.
Our bill rates include all deductions required by State and Federal legislation including
employer's contributions for FICA taxes, Unemployment and Workers' Compensation,
liability and fidelity bonding, as well as all other deductions and benefits paid to our
temporary employees. Additionally, all administrative charges are covered, including
preparation ofW-2 forms at the end of the year.
Benefits available for Manpower International Inc. employees include medical insurance
(eligibility after 30 calendar days), dental insurance, vision insurance, 401k (with a 25%
company match), vacation pay, holiday pay, referral bonuses, free training programs, and
more.
Manpower is happy to continue the hourly mark-up rates in the current contract which
were applied to the seasonal workforce. In 2000, Manpower was asked to provide the
seasonal workforce, which we agreed to do under the rates of the existing contract.
Several additional costs are required for these employees--safety glasses, hard hats,
leather gloves, rain ponchos, ear plugs, and t-shirts. We were also asked to implement a
drug screen on each employee and a motor vehicle background check on many. None of
these costs or requirements is included in the contract. Manpower is happy to comply
20 W. Muskegon Avenue• Muskegon, Ml 49440-1317 • (231) 722-6961 • Fax (231) 728-1477
with these requests. However, because of the already narrow profit margins with this
account, we find it necessary to bill the City for, at least, the negative drug tests in 2001.
Our cost for the drug testing is $21 per person, which in 2000 would have totaled
approximately $1,800.
We invite any questions you may have, and I am always available to meet to discuss
these issues in person.
Again, thank you for the opportunity to extend our services to the City of Muskegon.
Sincerely,
~~~
Annette W. Jack
District Manager

between the CITY OF MUSKEGON, a municipal corporation, City Hall, 933 Terrace Street,
Muskegon, Michigan 49440, hereinafter referred to as "Lessor," and PAVILION PROPERTIES,
L.L.C., of 39 Campau Circle, N .W., Grand Rapids, MI 49503, hereinafter referred to as
"Lessee."
1. Description and Use of Premises. Lessor leases to Lessee and Lessee hires from
Lessor, for the purpose of conducting thereon a restaurant and bar business, or such business as
Lessor allows, and for no other purpose, those certain premises situate in the City of Muskegon,
Muskegon County, Michigan, and more particularly described in attached Exhibit A, made a part
hereof. As used herein, the term "premises" refers to the real prope1ty described in Exhibit A,
exclusive of the building and fixtures. The Lessee is required to fully operate the said restaurant
business on the premises continuously (daily, except for weather conditions not in the control of
Lessee) during the period from Memorial Day through Labor Day of each year of every term. In
addition to other events of default, failure to so operate for said periods shall be a material
default and shall result in immediate termination in the year of the said failure.
2. Term. The initial term of this lease shall be for thirty (30) years commencing on
January 1, 2001, and ending on December 31, 2030, provided that one hundred twenty (120)
days before the end of the first term or any optional term, the Lessee delivers to Lessor a written
notice of its intent to renew for any option term provided for in this lease. Option terms are
made available in accordance with this paragraph, beginning the first day after the initial term,
each option term to have a duration of five (5) years. A total of four (4) option terms may be
available, provided Lessee complies with the requirements and covenants of this lease, and gives
the notice required by this paragraph for each option term.
3. Rent. The rentals to be paid under this lease shall be as follows:
(a) During the first five (5) years of the initial term, th~ sum of $10,200 per
year, payable in equal monthly installments of $856 per month.
(b) During the second five (5) years of the initial term, the sum of $11,985 per
year, payable in equal monthly installments of $998.75 per month.
(c) During the third five (5) years of the initial term, the sum of $14,082 per
year, payable in equal monthly installments of $1,173.50 per month.
(d) During the fourth five (5) years of the initial term, the sum of $16,546 per
year, payable in equal monthly installments of $1,378.83 per month.
(e) During the fifth five (5) years of the initial term, the sum of $19,441 per
year, payable in equal monthly installments of $1 ,620.08 per month.
(f) During the sixth five (5) years of the initial term, the sum of $22,843 per
year, payable in equal monthly installments of $1,903 .58 per month.
(g) During each option term the rent shall be that amount renegotiated by the
parties. Agreement by Lessor to a rental amount shall be a condition of renewal and continuance
of this lease during each of the four (4) option terms.
4. Quiet Enjoyment. Lessor covenants that Lessor is seized of the demised premises
in fee simple and has full right to make this lease and that Lessee shall have quiet and peaceable
possession of the demised premises during the term hereof; provided, however, Lessee does
hereby specifically release Lessor of and from any claim of any kind or nature based upon the
erosion of the premises herein leased or damage to the building owned by Lessee or any of the
contents thereof caused by the blowing and drifting of sand or the erosion or damage of any
portion of the leased premises caused by the waters of Lake Michigan.
5. Uses Prohibited. Lessee shall not use or permit the demised premises or any part
thereof, to be used for any purpose or purposes other than the purpose or purposes for which the
demised premises are hereby leased. In addition thereto, Lessee shall not disturb, alter, add to or
in any way affect the leased premises by any construction or improvement thereon without first
obtaining the prior written consent of Lessor. In the event Lessee wishes to change the use of the
building, it shall not do so without the consent, after written notice concerning the details of said
change given by the City, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The City may use
in making such determination any considerations deemed by it appropriate, including but not
limited to any master plans or actual uses applicable to the premises or to the surrounding area,
zoning, tax considerations, or matters concerning the public health, safety and welfare.
6. Encumbrance of Lessee's Leasehold Interest. Lessee may encumber by mortgage
or other proper instrument its leasehold interest and estate in the demised premises together with
all buildings and improvements owned by Lessee thereon or hereafter to be placed by Lessee
thereon, as security for any indebtedness of Lessee; provided, however, that the fee simple
interest of Lessor shall be unaffected and unencumbered by any such security, instrument, or
mortgage. The execution of any such mortgage, or other instrument, or the foreclosure thereof,
or any sale thereunder, either by judicial proceedings or by virtue of any power reserved in such
mortgage or conveyance by Lessee as a holder of such indebtedness, or the exercising of any
right, power, or privilege reserved in any mortgage or other instrument shall not be held as a
violation of any of the terms or conditions hereof, or as an assumption by the holder of such
indebtedness personally of the obligations hereof. No such encumbrance, foreclosure,
conveyance, or exercise of right shall relieve Lessee from its liability hereunder. Lessor's
interest in the land may not be subordinated or encumbered in any way.
If Lessee shall encumber its leasehold interest and estate in the demised premises,
and if Lessee or the holder of the indebtedness secured by such encumbrance shall give notice to
Lessor of the existence thereof and the address of such holder, then Lessor will mail or deliver to
such holder, at such address, a duplicate copy of all notices and writings which Lessor may from
time to time give or serve on Lessee under and pursuant to the terms and provisions hereof; such
copies shall be made or delivered to such holder, at or near as possible to, the same time such
notices are given to or served on Lessee. Such holder may, at its option, at any time before the
rights of Lessee shall be terminated as provided herein, pay any of the rents due hereunder, or
pay any taxes and assessments, or do any other act or thing required of Lessee by the terms
hereof, or do any act or thing that may be necessary and proper to be done in the observance of
the covenants and conditions hereof, or to prevent the termination hereof; all payments so made
G:ICOMMON\5\GTJlc-grdlea.doc 2
and all things so done and performed by such holder shall be as effective to prevent a foreclosure
of the rights of Lessee thereunder as the same would have been if done and performed by Lessee.
7. Subletting and Assignment. Lessee shall not sublet all or any part of the leased
premises nor assign all or any part of this lease except as otherwise provided in this lease without
obtaining the prior written consent of Lessor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
8. Taxes and Assessments. Lessee shall pay and discharge as they become due,
promptly and before delinquency, all taxes, assessments, rates, charges, license fees, municipal
liens, levies, water and sewer charges which may be levied, assessed, charged or imposed or
which would, in the event of private ownership, become a lien or charge on or against the land
hereby demised, or any part thereof, the leasehold of Lessee herein, the premises described
herein, any building or buildings or any other improvements now or hereafter thereon, or on or
against Lessee's estate hereby created which may be a subject of taxation, or on or against Lessor
by reason of its ownership of the fee underlying this lease, during the entire term hereof. Lessee
shall further pay and discharge all taxes as they may become due against Lessee by virtue of its
leasing land owned by a municipality in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan.
9. Special Assessment. Specifically and without in any way limiting the generality
of paragraph 8, above, Lessee shall pay all special assessments and levies or charges made by
any municipal or political subdivision for public improvements and shall pay the same in cash as
they shall fall due and before they shall become delinquent and as required by the act and
proceedings under which any such assessments or levies or charges are made by any municipal
or political subdivision.
IO. Building Improvements. Concurrently with the execution of this lease Lessee
shall, at Lessee's sole expense obtain a building permit from the Lessor, attaching thereto plans
and specifications for improvements to the building and other appurtenances heretofore
purchased from Lessor by Lessee. Such building permit and plans and specifications shall be
submitted to Lessor for Lessor's written approval and shall comply with all of Lessor's building,
construction and fire codes. Upon issuance of the building permit, Lessee_ shall forthwith
construct and install such improvements in accordance with the building permit, plans and
specifications.
11. Parking. In addition to the demised premises, Lessor does hereby lease to Lessee,
during the term of this lease, the "parking lot" located across the public roadway from the
demised premises; provided, however, that Lessee shall obtain, assume and pay the entire cost of
repair, maintenance, and sand and snow removal of said parking lot throughout each term of this
lease.
12. Utilities. Lessee shall fully and promptly pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power,
telephone service and other public utilities of every kind furnished to the premises throughout the
term hereof, and all other costs and expenses of any kind whatsoever of or in connection with the
use, operation and maintenance of the premises and all activities conducted thereon, and Lessor
shall have no responsibility of any kind for any thereof.
G:\COMMON\5\GTJ\c-grdlea.doc 3
13. Indemnification of Lessor.
(a) Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee or to any other person in or about the
premises for any loss, damage or injury sustained by them.
(b) Lessee covenants and agrees to pay all claims, costs and expenses and
assume all liabilities of any kind or nature arising out of or in any way connected with the
construction of the improvements and covenants and agrees that it will indemnify and hold
harmless Lessor from all claims, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) alleged to have
occurred to persons or property arising from such construction.
(c) Lessee agrees to indemnify and save harmless Lessor against and from
any and all claims, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) by or on behalf of any person
or persons, firm or firms, corporation or corporations, arising from the conduct or management
of the business conducted on the premises (which for purposes of this paragraph 13 shall include
the parking lot), or from the condition of the premises or from any work or thing done by Lessee
or its sublessees, and any person other than Lessor and agents of Lessor in or about the premises
and will further indemnify and save Lessor harmless against and from any and all claims, costs
and expenses (including attorneys' fees) arising during the term of this lease from any breach or
default on the part of Lessee to be performed pursuant to Lessee, or any of its agents, contractors,
servants, employees or licensees or sublicensees or any other person other than Lessor and
agents of Lessor in or about the premises. This agreement to save harmless and indemnify
Lessor shall extend to all forms ofliability, including but not limited to liability, if any, arising
from the presence of or serving of intoxicating beverages on the premises, and all other forms of
liability. In case any action or proceeding be brought against Lessor by reason of any such
claim, Lessee, upon notice form Lessor, covenants at the expense of Lessee, to resist or defend
such action or proceeding by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lessor. Lessee shall not suffer
or give cause for the filing of any liens, claims security interests or encumbrances of any kind or
nature against the premises, except for liens which arise because of bona fide disputes between
the Lessee and any contractor or subcontractor, in which case said liens shall be bonded, and in
any event Lessee agrees that any lien claims will be satisfied prior to execution of any judgment.
The provisions of this section (c) shall not apply to damage, injury or death resulting from the
acts of negligence of Lessor.
(d) Lessee shall, during the entire term hereof, at its sole cost and expense,
keep in full force and effect a policy of public liability insurance with respect to the premises and
the business operated by Lessee in which both Lessor and Lessee shall be named as parties
covered thereby in which the limits of liability shall not be less than $3,000,000 for injury to any
one person and $3,000,000 as to any one accident, $1,000,000 to property damage, $1,000,000
for automobile liability. Such insurance shall be with a company acceptable to Lessor, and shall
name Lessor and Lessee as insureds. Lessee shall furnish Lessor with a certificate or certificates
of insurance or other acceptable evidence that such insurance is in force at all times during the
term hereof. Such insurance shall be noncancellable without thirty (30) days' written notice to
Lessor. To the extent there are increases in the Consumers Price Index (all items), for the United
States published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics ("Index"),
the foregoing insurance policy limitations of liability shall be commensurately increased. In
addition, Lessor shall be named as an additional insured on all other forms of liability insurance
policies including those pertaining to the sale or presence of alcoholic beverages on the premises.
G:\COMMON\5\GTJ\c-grdlea.doc 4
The presence of the Lessor as an additional insured shall not give rise to any separate liability of
Lessor.
14. Termination. At the termination of this lease for any reason, any building,
fixtures and other appurtenances situate on the demised premises shall become the property of
Lessor. Notwithstanding, Lessee may remove said building and fixtures from the demised
premises if Lessee provides Lessor, no later than thirty (30) days after termination and Lessor's
notice thereof, whichever is later, with a written notice of Lessee's intention to remove said
building, appurtenances and fixtures within ninety (90) days from the date the Lessee's notice is
delivered and, concurrently therewith, shall provide Lessor with a performance bond with surety
satisfactory to Lessor naming Lessor as obligee thereunder, the condition of which bond shall be
such removal of the entire building, appurtenances and fixtures from the demised premises in full
and complete accordance with applicable City codes and regulations, including but not limited to
the requirement that any hole or excavation caused by the removal of the building shall be filled
with Lake Michigan sand by Lessee at a level equal to the earth level oflands adjacent to and
northerly and southerly of the demised premises. In the event Lessee shall default in timely
delivering the notice of intent to remove as above set forth and in delivering the required
performance bond, any building, fixtures or other appurtenances in existence upon the demised
premises on the date of termination shall remain the property of Lessor.
15. Liens. Lessee shall not suffer or permit any mechanic's and/or construction liens
to be filed or exist against the premises or any part thereof, by reason of work, labor, service or
materials supplied or claimed to have been supplied to Lessee or its agents, contractors,
subcontractors and subtenants. If any such mechanic's liens shall at any time be filed, Lessee
shall, within ten (I 0) business days after notice of the filing thereof, or such shorter grace period
as may be applicable, cause the same to be discharged of record by payment, bond, order of a
court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise. Lessee shall have the right to contest the validity of
the amount of any such lien by appropriate proceedings timely instituted, provided that Lessee:
(i) gives Lessor written notice of its intention to do so; (ii) diligently prosecutes any such contest;
and, (iii) if requested by Lessor, furnishes a bond in cash or surety, whichever shall be acceptable
to Lessor, in an amount equal to the amount of the lien as claimed, and Lessee shall not be in
default hereunder for failure to pay or discharge any such lien so long as it is contesting the same
as aforesaid. Lessee shall observe and comply with any and all requirements under the
applicable Michigan lien laws.
Lessee shall indemnify and save harmless Lessor and its officers, trustees, elected
officials, members, agents, employees, guests and invitees from and against any and all claims,
costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) which may be imposed upon, incurred by or
asserted against Lessor by reason of any act or omission of such contractor or its personnel,
employees, agents or subcontractors, resulting in personal injury, bodily injury, sickness, disease
or death to persons, or damage to or destruction of tangible property including the loss of use
thereof. The written indemnification by such contractor shall be delivered to Lessor prior to the
commencement of any work on the premises and shall contain the agreement of such contractor,
at its sole cost and expense, to resist and defend any actions or proceedings brought against
Lessor by reason of any such claim upon the request of Lessor.
16. Bankruptcy. If, after the commencement of the term of this lease, the Lessee
shall: (i) be adjudicated bankrupt or adjudged to be insolvent pursuant to the provisions of any
G:ICOMMON\5\GTJ\c-grdlea.doc 5
state or federal insolvency or bankruptcy law, or file under any chapter of the federal bankruptcy
laws; (ii) a receiver or trustee of the property and affairs of Lessee shall be appointed; (iii) any
assignment shall be made of Lessee's property for the benefit of creditors or if a petition shall be
filed by or against Lessee seeking to have Lessee adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt pursuant to
the provisions of any state or federal insolvency or bankruptcy law and such petition shall not be
withdrawn and the proceedings dismissed within ninety (90) days after the filing of the petition;
or, (iv) any execution or attachment shall be issued against Lessee or any of Lessee's property,
whereby the premises (including any improvements thereon) shall be taken or occupied or
attempted to be taken or occupied by someone other than Lessee then and in any of such events,
Lessor may terminate this lease by written notice to Lessee; provided, however, if the order of
court creating any of such disabilities shall not be final by reason of pendency of such
proceedings, or appeal from such order, or if the petition shall not have been withdrawn or the
proceedings dismissed within ninety (90) days after the filing of the petition, then Lessor shall
not have the right to terminate this lease so long as Lessee performs its obligations hereunder. If,
as a matter of law, Lessor has no right on the bankruptcy of Lessee to terminate this lease, then,
if Lessee, as debtor, or its trustee wishes to assume this lease, in addition to curing or adequately
assuring the cure of all defaults existing under this lease on Lessee's part on the date of filing of
the proceeding (such assurances being defined below), Lessee, as debtor, or the trustee must also
furnish adequate assurances of future performance under this lease (as defined below). Adequate
assurance of curing defaults means the posting with landlord of a sum in cash sufficient to defray
the cost of such a cure. Adequate assurance of future performance under this lease means
posting a deposit equal to one (I) year's rent, including all other charges payable by Lessee
hereunder, and that its use of the premises will comply with the terms hereof. In a reorganization
under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, the debtor or trustee must assume this lease or assign
it within one hundred twenty (120) days from the filing of the proceeding, or he shall be deemed
to have rejected and terminated this lease.
17. Default. In the event of any breach of this lease by Lessee, Lessor in addition to
the other rights and remedies it may have, shall have the immediate right of reentty and may
remove all persons and prope1ty from the premises; such property may be removed and stored in
a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the account of Lessee, except to the extent
any property is forfeited to Lessor under the terms of this lease. Should Lessor elect to reenter,
as herein provided, or should it take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any
notice provided by law, Lessor may either terminate this lease or it may, from time to time,
without terminating this lease, relet the demised premises or any part thereof for such term or
terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the term of this lease) and at such rental or
rentals and on such other terms and conditions as Lessor in the sole discretion of Lessor may
deem advisable with the right to make alterations and repairs to the demised premises.
18. Notice of Default. Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder in the
payment of rent or the payment of any other monies as herein required or in the furnishing of any
bond or insurance policy when required hereto unless Lessor shall first give to Lessee thirty (30)
days written notice of such default and Lessee fails to cure such default with the said thi1ty (30)
days. For violation of any other agreements, conditions or covenants set forth in this lease,
Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder unless Lessor shall first give to Lessee
thirty (30) days written notice of such default and Lessee fails to cure such default within such
thirty (30) day period, or, if the default is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within thirty
G:ICOMMON\5\GTJ\c-grdlea.doc 6
(30) days, or if Lessee fails to commence to cure such default within such period of thirty (30)
days, or fails thereafter to proceed to curing of such default with all possible diligence.
19. Waiver. The waiver by Lessor of, or the failure of Lessor to take action with
respect to any breach of any terms, covenant, or condition herein contained, shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of such term, covenant, or condition, or subsequent breach of the same, or any
other term, covenant or condition therein contained. The subsequent acceptance of rent
hereunder by Lessor shall not be deemed a waiver of any preceding breach by Lessee of any
term, covenant, or condition of this lease, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular
rental so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of
acceptance of such rent.
20. Holding Over. Any holding over after the expiration of the term of this lease,
with consent of Lessor, shall be construed to be a tenancy from month to month, at the same
monthly rental as required to be paid by Lessee for the period immediately prior to the expiration
of the term hereof, and shall otherwise be on the terms and conditions herein specified, so far as
applicable.
21. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in this lease, and of each and every
covenant, term, condition, and provision hereof.

Description of Services and Proposal
The request for proposals requests a single proposal for all legal services, excluding certain
specified areas, and a separate proposal for General Counsel, Prosecution and Labor/Personnel.
A. Legal Services to be Included in a Single Retainer
As to this proposal, the Firm would propose to act as legal counsel for the City, specifically
including:
1. Attendance at all regular and special City Commission meetings.
2. Attendance, as needed, at meetings of committees of the City Commission, Boards of
Appeals, Planning Commission, Historic District Commission, the Civil Service
Commission, Pension Boards, and Authorities.
3. The rendering oflegal advice and opinions, preparation and drafting services in connection
with the City Charter or Charter revisions/amendments, preparation oflegal documents,
drafting of ordinances and resolutions, and consultation on City matters with the City
Commission, City Manager, Assistant City Manager, and department heads.
G:\COMMON\5\JCSIC-ATTY.SER Page 4
4. Appearance in court for the prosecution of ordinance violations, including criminal
complaints and civil infractions, lawsuits for injunctions and civil enforcement of civil
ordinances, and revolving loan fund collections.
5. Labor negotiations, arbitration, and advice on labor relations and personnel matters.
6. Services rendered in connection with Authorities or other entities associated with the City
regardless of the funding source. Such bodies include, but are not limited to, the Downtown
Development Authority, Tax Increment Finance Authority, Local Development Finance
Authority, and the Hospital Finance Authority. Not included is the Muskegon Housing
Commission (which ha&recently become independent).
7. Appearance and prosecution of defense of cases before the Michigan Tax Tribunal or State
Tax Commission.
8. Work associated with bond issues, except for the duties traditionally required of Bond
Counsel.
9. Real estate transactions and condemnation proceedings.
10. Defense of the City in litigation subject to insurance coverage - typically, where the Risk
Authority or insurance carrier requests local appearances by the City Attorney, on behalf of
and representing the City or one of its authorities, agencies or employees.
The City, and our experience in 2000, would suggest that the Firm will spend 3,600 billable hours
on behalf of the City for the above referenced representation. To date, the Fim1 has undertaken very
limited defense of the City in litigation subject to insurance coverage. The City may, during the
course of this contract, find it cost effective to have the Firm undertake more defense of the City,
especially when the amounts in controversy, including cost of defense, are less than the retention
amount.
The firm proposes that the retainer for the above services be contracted for as follows:
Amount
2001 $360,000
2002 $360,000
2003 $360,000
To the extent that the number of hours exceed 3,600 per year, the Firm would expect to be
compensated for additional hours at the rate of $100 per hour. To the extent that the number of
hours are less than 3,600 per year, the Firm would reimburse the City at the rate of$100 per hour.
The Firm would prefer to have the modification occur on a semi-annual basis. This arrangement
has worked very well in 2000 and has resulted in a better use of legal services.
G :ICOMMON\5\JCS\C-ATTY .SER Page 5
B. Proposal for General Counsel. Prosecution. and Labor/Personnel
The City has requested a proposal for each of these areas separately. Given that legal advice does
not necessarily easily fall into the three categories, the Firm finds it impossible to bid an annual
retainer fee as to each of the categories. Presently, ifa member of the Firm attends a City
Commission meeting all time is reported as "General Counsel". Presumably, under the scenario of
separate attorneys for the separate areas, the total amount of time billed to the City would increase
and the information provided to bidders understates that for each function. Further, certain
assignments are not easily categorized. For instance, when a pension ordinance is needed applicable
to non-union employees that time could be included in either "General Counsel" or
"Labor/Personnel". Likewise, some court time, but not time at the City Commission, relating to
dangerous buildings, has been included in "Prosecution", but could as easily be included in
"General Counsel".
If the Firm is not selected to undertake all representation, then the Firm would propose to undertake
the work at an hourly rate of$120. The Firm is not interested in, and is not submitting a proposal,
to represent the City on Prosecution matters only. The Firm would undertake Prosecution work only
if the Firm were selected to represent the City on "General Counsel" matters or "Labor/Personnel"
matters.
C. Comment
For several years the firm has represented the City and its compensation has been provided by a
retainer, together with payment for extra services for functions or authorities which were separately
funded. In 1999, discussions occurred concerning the amount of time expended by the Firm on
behalf of the City. In 2000, the City and Firm agreed to a retainer with compensation increased or
decreased in June or increased in December. This has resulted in a reduction of hours. Given the
commencement of two major pieces of litigation, the Firm expects a substantial increase in legal
services hours.
The Firm believes, however, that the modification of the annual retainer in 2000 has assisted in
keeping legal fees in check and would propose to continue that practice.
In the past, the City has retained the Firm for all work. This has allowed certain economies within
the Firm, which has been shared with the City. If the firm is retained for all work, economies can be
shared with the City and is reflected in our bid. If the firm is retained for only some of the work,
economies are not available.
D. Significant Expansion of Services
Five years ago, the Firm submitted its proposal with the concept that five attorneys would be
working on "retainer". Today, our proposal contemplates that seven attorneys would be working,
within their specialties, on "rrtainer". This is a function of the Firm adding personnel and
specialities which are useful in City work.
G:ICOMMONl5IJCS\C-ATTY.SER Page 6
We believe we are all available to serve the City, with our specialties in mind. However, a great
majority of the service would be performed by those who are most familiar with problems that the
City will face over the next few years. Therefore, some members will be most closely involved with
the City:
G. Thomas Johnson - Would be named as City Attorney. Would attend most City Commission
meetings and prepare most legal opinions for the City. Contracts involving real estate, economic
development matters, development agreements, and most other agreements, except for collective
bargaining agreements, would be drafted, negotiated and prepared by him. Matters before the Tax
Tribunal and State Tax Commission would be primarily his responsibility, as would local work in
connection with bond issues. ·He would be responsible for real estate transactions and
documentation, condemnation proceedings and defense of litigation. He would assist in City
prosecutions and court cases enforcing City ordinances, and work as part of any team responsible
for environmental matters.
John C. Schrier - Would be appointed Assistant City Attorney. He would be available for all the
work and responsibilities of the City Attorney, and would attend some City Commission meetings.
In addition his primary responsibilities would include all personnel and labor matters, collective
bargaining contracts and negotiation, labor arbitrations, mediations, etc. He has particular expertise
and would be involved in civil rights personnel claims. He would assist in City prosecutions and
court cases enforcing City ordinances.
Jennifer L. Hylland - Would be primarily concerned with prosecutions under City Ordinances for
criminal matters and civil infractions.
Linda S. Kaare - In the event the City needs legal advice regarding various pension matters, Linda
S. Kaare who specializes in her practice in employee benefits and retirement and pension plans,
would advise the City in those areas.
Thomas J. O'Toole - Mr. O'Toole would be available to provide assistance, primarily in litigation
and economic development areas.
James R. Scheuerle - James R. Scheuerle would serve the City in creditor bankruptcy, collection
and landlord/tenant matters.
Scott R. Sewick - Would be primarily concerned with prosecutions under City Ordinances for
criminal matters and civil infractions, together with dangerous buildings and fire damage cases.
Conflicts
Conflicts may occur from time to time, especially since the firm has many business and personal
clients. In the past, we have been sensitive to such situations, and we would continue to monitor all
matters which produce, or have the potential to produce, conflicts of interest. In an effort to
minimize conflicts, the firm has refused a number of clients. Refusal of potential clients is feasible
only because of the extent of representation of the City.
G:\COMMON\5\JCS\C-ATTY.SER Page 7
If at any time it is perceived or determined by the City or by this firm that a conflict exists, the
ethics of the legal profession require that the facts must be immediately communicated to the City
and the other client, and the opportunity for alternative representation of both parties afforded.
Where a true conflict arises, we would be unable to represent the City or the other client and
separate counsel for each would be obtained.
Computer Connection
In our relations with the City, this Firm and the City have become increasingly reliant on e-mail
communication, including attachments. We presently transfer documents via e-mail and would
expect to continue that practice. We, and City staff, are fully able to access, review and respond to
documents from the other. We expect that practice to continue, and increase. In that effort, the
Firm is undertaking a major computer upgrade this month and will be operating Microsoft Office
2000.
Malpractice Insurance
The firm carries $5 million Dollars in malpractice insurance annual limit. The company presently
insuring the firm is Great American Insurance Company.
Summarv Comments
In representing the City of Muskegon since 1961, the finn has always geared its practice primarily
in ways that best serve the City's need for good advice and representation in municipal matters.
Several of our members are conversant with and receive continuing education and literature
regarding the municipal field. They are members of the sections of the State Bar and of the
American Bar Association which afford the best sources of current legal literature as well as
practice standards.
This firm has enjoyed, as a group and individually, working with the City Commissioners and staff.
We believe the work to be challenging and very significant. Representing municipalities is
important to us, and we hope that our good relationship can contin e in productive ways.

DATE: November 20, 2000
To: Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
From: Inspection Services Department
Re: Concurrence with the Housing Board of Appeals determination for
demolition of the structures at 497 Catawba, aka, dangerous building case
number 98-22.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: This it to request City Commission concurrence with the
findings of the Housing Board of Appeals that the structure located al 497 Catawba is
unsafe, substandard, a public nuisance and that it be demolished within thi1iy (30) clays.
It is further requested that administration be directed to obtain bids for the demolition of
the structure and that the Mayor and City Clerk be authorized and directed to execute a
contract for demolition with the lowest responsible bidder.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The cost of demolition will be paid with budgeted CDBG funds.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
CASE HISTORY: A dangerous building inspection was conducted on 4/6/98. A notice
and order was issued on 4/15/98. A relative of the owner contacted the Inspections Dept.
and asked what needed to be done. An interior inspection was later scheduled for May
27, 1998 but the owner did not show up at the designated time. Since no work schedule
had been submitted and no repairs had been made, the case was referred to the housing
Board of Appeals on June 4, 1998. No one appeared at the meeting to contest the
department's recommendation that the structure be demolished and the Housing Board of
Appeals declared the structure dangerous and to forward the case to the commission for
concurrence in demolition.
At the owners request another inspection was then scheduled for July 15, 1998.(findings
attached). On August 18, 1998, the owner contacted the department and said she would
bring in a work schedule the following day. No schedule had been received so the
commission reviewed the case on 10/27/98. At the meeting the owner submitted a time
schedule. The Commission voted to postpone the demolition for 30 days which at the
time the commission would then evaluate the progress of repairs. On February 9, 1999
The Commission heard the case again. The case appears to have been dropped and then
reviewed by the Housing Board of appeals again on 12/2/99 where once again the board
declared the structure(s) unsafe and forward to the commission for their recommendation.
The case was heard again before the Commission on 1/2/00. The case was tabled until
5/31/00. The Housing Board of Appeals heard the case on 9/11/00where the owner was
given 30 more days. at the next meeting on 10/5/00, the Board decided to forward the
case to the Commission again for concurrence with demolition.
ESTIMATED COST FOR REPAIR: $15,000- $19,000.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the commission to concur with
the housing board of appeals decision to demolish the structure(s).
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Committee will consider this item at its
meeting on December 12, 2000.

Ms. Loera attended the meeting. She informed the Board that since the last time she
came before the Board she had her electric work done and it did not pass the
inspection. Since then she hasn't done any work because she had a couple deaths
in the family.
Chairman Borgman asked staff member, Don Labrenz if he had any comments since
he was the one who did the inspection. Don stated that Ms. Loera is trying to work
on the repairs but needs a professional to help her since she has fallen backwards in
the electrical repairs and ended up having more violations than before she started the
work.
Grabinski stated that it is Staff's prospective that the Board has been dealing with this
case since 1998 and have been quite lenient. It has only been the last six months
that the reins have been tightened. It becomes a liability when work is not done;
therefore Staff recommends declaring the building dangerous.
Randy Mackie, supported by Jerry Bever, made a motion to declare the structure(s)
at 497 Catawba to be substandard, unsafe, a public nuisance and forward the case to
the City Commission for concurrence for demolition of the structure(s). A roll call vote

for the inspector to call her.
Mr. Warner asked Staff for some history on the case. Mr. Grabinski stated that
the case has been going through Dangerous Building proceedings since June of
1998. The case was referred to the Board back then due to a fire. Ms. Loera
was issued a few permits; however, Ms. Loera must be confused. Inspectors do
not call you to schedule an inspection. You are required to call the inspections
Department to schedule an inspection. Mr. Grabinski then informed the Board
that City Commission concurred in February of 2,000 But Inspections tabled the

occasions and doing a nice job. Staff would like to see the work continue and
that is why this case was brought before the Board again. Also so that the Board
could see how much work has been done since it was declared dangerous.

Re: 497 Catawba
Upon inspection of the above address I found the following violations
Plumbing
1. Water piping unsupported
2. Water piping unprotected from possible damage
3. Waste and vent piping does not conform to 1997 IPC
4. Unapproved fittings and materials used
5. Discontinued branches not removed from system
Mechanical
1. Installation incomplete
2. No pressure test on fuel gas line
3. Mechanical system in general state of disrepair
4. Unapproved materials used
Upon questioning the homeowner who had applied for and was issued the
plumbing and mechanical permits. The homeowner informed me that a Mr.
Richard Garza had been performing all the plumbing and mechanical work. Mr.
Garza is not to the knowledge of this office either a master plumber or a licensed
mechanical contractor. Ifhe is he has not registered his license with this office.
Considering the length of time the permit has been issued and the lack of progress
towards its completion. I can only assume that Mr. Garza lacks the necessary
skills to successfully complete the task.

t
I Mr. Scanlon attended the meeting and reported that he could not do repairs until he gets
the permits required. He was infonned some time ago that he needed drawings from an
architect before permits could be issued. Mr. Scanlon stated that his Architect, Tim
Bosma, delayed the completion of the drawings, but did give Mr. Scanlon a copy of what
he had done so far which Mr. Scanlon had brought with him to the'meeting. Greg
Borgman asked the Staff if they had seen the drawings before. Bob Grabin*i stated that
the Inspections Dept has not seen the drawings but that Mr. Bosma had called and talked
to Jerry McIntyre to let him know that he was working on the plans, Mr. McIntyre
concurred. Mr. Grabinski asked Mr. Scanlon how much longer before the plans would be
complete. Mr. Scanlon did not know. Staff recommended that the plans brought to the
meeting be turned over to them and an extension be awarded to Mr. Scanlon to give him
enough time for the Architect to complete the plans and then enough time for Mr.
Scanlon to complete the work. Extend until September l, 2000. Greg Borgman made a
motion, supported by Robert Johnson and Fred Nielsen to extend this case until 9/1/00
