(6) members: Lawrence Baker (Ward 1), Leon Howard (Ward 2), Jennifer
Sanocki (Ward 3), Nina Leask (Ward 4), Jonathan Seyferth (City Manager),
and Sharonda Carson (Director, Community and Neighborhood Services).
Two additional representative(s) were included, as advisors to the
committee, from local Community Based Organizations.
June: Review Committee held four public meetings at City Hall on 6/5, 6/7, 6/22
and 6/29.
Applications were to be consistent with the City Commission’s 2022-2027 Long
Term Goals. https://muskegon-mi.gov/cresources/ARP-001-Grant-Application-
Program-Guidelines.2.16.pdf
The Committee used a multi-step process to review and evaluate all applications.
The committee referred to the following questions, as part of the evaluation
criteria, on which to base their selected scores. Projects were ranked by the
cumulative average of each members scores.
Is the project description and budget clear and well-defined?
Does the project include a capital expenditure?
Does the project provide a description of structure and objectives of the
assistance program(s), including public health or negative economic
impacts experienced?
Does the project identify service outcomes for residents
disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic (e.g.,
communities of color, people with disabilities, low-to-moderate income
residents or elders)
Brief description of recipient’s approach to ensuring that the response is
reasonable and proportional to a public health or negative economic
impact of COVID-19?
What is the project’s sustainability (e.g., one-time v. recurring cost)?
2
Is the project capable of being completed within the ARPA timeline
requirements services?
Has applicant previously partnered with or assisted other community
organizations to provide needed services?
Is the project aligned with Commission’s 2022-2027 Long Term Goals?
The Committee recommends (22) project proposals for the Commission’s
consideration -
o (4) neighborhood associations, (5) small businesses and (13) non-
profit organizations.
o (12) recommended Women- and Minority-Owned
Businesses/Organization proposals.
o (8) proposals to provide funds for the direct benefit of community
youth.
o (3) proposals to provide funds to expand access to new housing
options for area residents.
o (12) proposals recommended to receive the full amount of their
project request.
Staff was directed to conduct an initial review and assessment of all 60
applications to ensure completeness and eligibility. The Review Committee
deliberated on a first set of project proposals which fulfilled the requirements of
the application and were rated accordingly. The group reviewed a second set of
applications which minimally met the grant program’s criteria but either lacked
clarity, specificity, or did not meet the impactful expectations of the grant
program guidelines. The committee chose three proposals from this second
group to review and rate.
Is the project aligned with Commission’s 2022-2027 Long Term Goals?
Applicants approved for funding will enter into a contractual agreement
with the City which outlines general obligations and federal reporting
requirements. Approved applicants will be required to complete a
Beneficiary Agreement with the City to adhere to these requirements.

ARPA Community Grant Review Committee to rate/score applications submitted
for grant funds. Discussion took place. Staff is directed to consult with applicants

recommended funds are sufficient to move their project forward. This item will
be placed on the agenda for consideration at the August 7, 2023 meeting.

7.g Termination of Downtown Muskegon Development Center (DMDC)
Parking Easement Agreements at 387 and 401 Morris - Manager's
Office
Easements were discovered as part of the closing process with the DMDC
to sell Units 1 and 2, otherwise known as the Morris Avenue Parking Lot,
to the City. The City and DMDC have since agreed that the Easements
are no longer needed and are therefore terminated, abandoned, and of no
further force or effect.
On June 13, the commission authorized the purchase of DMDC-owned
parking lots at 387 and 401 Morris Avenue to the City. These are lots
5
behind the Chamber of Commerce and Russell Block/Century Club
buildings.
The Closing on Units 1 & 2 occurred on July 19th. There are two
exceptions on the title commitment for the parking lot that have to do with
two Easements granted by the City for the benefit of the old Muskegon
Mall property. The City entered into two Parking and Access Easement
Agreements with Muskegon Properties Company, Inc., dated March 26,
1991. The City and DMDC have since agreed that the Easements are no
longer needed and are therefore terminated, abandoned, and of no further
force or effect. Legal counsel has prepared a Mutual Termination of
Easements that was reviewed and approved by the title company as part
of the property closing.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve terminating two existing
Parking and Access Easement Agreements for Units 1 and 2 as part of
the property closing at 387 and 401 Morris St.
7.h Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance - Fencing - Planning

7.j Sale of 180 Houston Avenue - Manager's Office
Staff is seeking approval of the sale of 180 Houston Avenue.
In late 2020, the commission approved an agreement with Community
EnCompass to construct affordable homes. The goals of the agreement
were to further our economic equity efforts and create diversity of housing
price points as we build housing infill. The agreement has been amended
over time, and the project is now part of our ARPA infill housing initiative
and our scattered site brownfield. We have received a purchase
agreement on the first home located at 180 Houston Avenue. The offer is
for $150,000, a full price offer, with no seller concessions.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the purchase agreement for
180 Houston Avenue.
7.e Legal Representation for Tax Appeals for Property Tax Classification
for Marihuana Operations - Finance
The City of Muskegon is seeking to reach an agreement with Hallahan &
Associates, P.C. for Marihuana tax appeals at the State Tax Commission
and Michigan Tax Tribunal.
Parmenter Law which normally represents the City of Muskegon,
recommends that we use this law firm because of their expertise in these
types of tax appeals. This Law Firm has been hired by other
municipalities across the State to represent them for this unique property
tax classification appeal. We thought it would be in our best interest to
use this law firm because they are familiar with tax appeals from the
Marihuana businesses.
Fees for service will be calculated at hourly rate of $215 for attorneys and
an hourly rate of $100 for law clerks and assistants.

assumptions
Project assumptions are foreseeable events or situations we can expect during the implementation.
• Scope is based on information provided to date as included in this SOW.
• Client and Summit Technologies will review their responsibilities before work begins to ensure that
Services can be satisfactorily completed.
• Changes or additions to scope or responsibilities requested by the Client will require a Change Order
even if there are no additional costs associated with the change.
• Deliverables not specifically described in this document are not the responsibility of Summit
Technologies and cannot be included in the project schedule without the approval of the Summit
Technologies project manager. If additional deliverables or tasks are added and approved, these
changes will require a change order and associated increase in costs.
• Project Schedule assumes timely completion of tasks assigned to Client and timely Client response to
Summit Technologies questions and requests for information, availability of key Client resources, and
collaboration and availability of any third-party vendor resources. Late (expected delivery dates are as
implied by the mutually agreed project plan) Client deliverables may adversely impact overall
implementation timeline.
• With the exception of onsite visits identified in this SOW or as identified in subsequent applicable
change orders, all work conducted by Summit Technologies will be performed remotely. Client is
responsible to provision and support required access and any required hardware, if needed.
• Client will provide technical assistance for access through the Client network firewall(s) if required to
use the Salesforce Platform or any interfaces implemented by the Summit Technologies team.
• Client will provide fee schedules that are complete and current for all departments.
• Client will maintain primary responsibility for the scheduling of Client employees and facilities in
support of project activities.
• Client is responsible for proper desktop hardware/software/network preparation in accordance with
Salesforce specifications on a timely basis to facilitate anticipated go-live.
• Client is responsible to ensure Client participants have adequate hardware/software to
successfully participate in online training (i.e., video and audio streaming).
• Client will commit to the involvement of key resources and subject matter experts for ongoing
participation in all project activities as defined in this SOW. The importance of Client staff participation
is imperative to the successful, and timely, implementation of the project deliverables.
• This SOW includes unit and system testing that covers the expected application functionality and primary
workflow(s) identified during discovery. Edge case testing, or fringe testing, that assesses how the
application works when a user goes off script is not included. Fringe testing can include testing out of
sequence, twisting the expected workflow, or discovering functions the application performs that it was
not designed for. Should the Client require edge testing and remediation of unexpected results will
require a Change Order and additional budget hours.

statement of work agreement
client responsibilities
In order to successfully execute the services described herein, there are several critical success factors for the
project that must be closely monitored and managed by the stakeholders. These factors are critical in setting
expectations between the Client and Summit Technologies, identifying and monitoring project risks, and
promoting strong project communication. The CHAOS report by the Standish Group lists the following Success
Factors as essential to every project:
1. User Involvement
2. Executive Support
3. Clear Business Objectives
4. Emotional Maturity
5. Optimization
6. Agile Process
7. Project Management Expertise
8. Skilled Resources
9. Execution
10. Tools and Infrastructure.
Summit Technologies will work with Client to ensure these success factors are observed. From the Client, we will
need:
• User Involvement and Knowledge Transfer – It is critical that Client personnel participate in the
deployment of the Salesforce Platform in order for Summit Technologies to transfer knowledge to the
Client. Once Postproduction assistance tasks are completed by Summit Technologies, the Client assumes
all day-to-day operations of the system outside of the software support and maintenance provided by
Salesforce. Generally, Salesforce’s software support and maintenance does not cover any manipulation of
implemented custom configurations, scripts, reports, interfaces and adaptors. Please familiarize yourself
with Salesforce’s Support and Maintenance Terms and Conditions for more information on post-
implementation support. Post go-live, Client has the option to procure one of our Salesforce Managed
Services plans. Your organization is assigned a single Salesforce certified administrator who is familiar with
your business and Salesforce implementation. They would have access to numerous additional Summit
Technologies resources including developers, analysts and automation specialists who will enable your
consultant to make specific recommendations and optimizations based on your needs. We don’t simply
maintain your Salesforce; we continuously improve it with customizations based on your feedback and
the three annual Salesforce releases.
• Executive Sponsorship and Support – We strongly recommend involvement of a Client Executive Sponsor.
Management must agree that the project is important, will add value to the business, or solve a pressing
problem. If management does not see the value of the project, they will be reluctant to support it. If
management support is missing, the project becomes staved of resources – people and funds. Executive
sponsorship ensures the project stays on the “important initiatives” list.
user acceptance testing
• Client is responsible for all User Acceptance Testing activities.
• Client is responsible for performing User Acceptance Testing, on a timely basis.
• User testing must be completed within the time frames detailed in the project timeline. Any delays could
lead to a change order and a corresponding increase in costs to the Client.
Confidential Summit Technologies, LLC 1391 W 5th Ave #349, Columbus, OH 43212 USA 614 859 6543 Page 5
statement of work agreement
not included
• Integration with other applications or data sources
• Custom development or code, including Apex, Visualforce, JavaScript or other coded solutions
• Installation of apps or components from AppExchange not explicitly mentioned in SOW
• The project software licensing requirements for the Salesforce products and any third-party solutions are
not included in this proposal. All software licenses, associated yearly renewals, and setup services are the
sole responsibility of the Client. Any missing software licenses for products that are deemed necessary for
this project may result in additional services scope and will necessitate a Change Order to implement a
work around
additional services
If additional services are required by Client, Summit Technologies will provide an estimate on the number of
hours required to complete a task. If the estimate is found to be acceptable, the timeline will be mutually
agreed upon by both Summit Technologies and Client. A Change Ordered is processed by mutual agreement
and Summit Technologies will bill the Client for the required hours to accomplish the additional services based
on the ‘Project Resource Rate Table’.
cost schedule
Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the Work Description, this is a fixed hours proposal, and not a fixed bid
proposal. Within this SOW, we are including a good-faith estimate of the number of hours needed to achieve the
deliverables of this project. Many factors may lead to not completing all objectives within the allotted hours. The
Summit Technologies team will conduct appropriate requirements elicitation and work with Client to prioritize a
backlog to ensure highest value work is completed first. Should the Client requirements turn out to be materially
different than what is proposed in this SOW, a scope Change Order will need to be processed by mutual
agreement. Based on similar past project engagements, Summit Technologies is estimating being able to
complete the deliverables of this project within the recommended hours and has priced/quoted this
implementation accordingly.
The pricing described below is exclusive of taxes and expenses. The price is based on the information available
at the time of signing and the assumptions, dependencies and constraints, and roles and responsibilities of the
Parties, as stated in this SOW. Should there be changes to the scope, timeline or resources that increases the
hours or costs needed to complete the project, a Change Order may be required for project continuation.

as follows:
i. GRANTEE may request up to fifty percent (50%) of the approved grant amount as an advance prior to
incurring costs of the eligible expenses incurred by the GRANTEE up to ninety percent (90%) of the maximum
reimbursement allowable under the grant. Advance amount request must be reasonable and necessary for the
success of the project and only include what will be spent in the current fiscal year. The entire advance amount
must be earned and documented on a reimbursement request before additional payments will be made to the
GRANTEE. Once an advance is fully earned, an additional advance may be requested.
ii. Advance requests must be submitted in writing. A justification for the advance amount requested is required
and only include what will be spent in the current fiscal year. Advances may be approved at a lower amount
than requested or denied.
iii. Additional advances will be made only upon DEPARTMENT review and approval of documentation submitted
by the GRANTEE which includes an expenditure list supported by documentation as required by the
DEPARTMENT, including but not limited to copies of invoices, cancelled checks, electronic fund transfers
and/or other items identified and provided by the GRANTEE.
iv. GRANTEE shall maintain and make available to the State of Michigan and/or the U.S. Department of
Treasury, Office of Inspector General, upon request, all documents and financial records sufficient to establish
compliance with subsection 601(d) of the Social Security Act as amended, (42 U.S.C. 801(d)). Records shall
be maintained for a period of five (5) years after final payment is made using SLFRF monies. These record
retention requirements are applicable to prime recipients and their grantees and subgrant recipients. Records
to support compliance with subsection 601(d) may include, but are not limited to, copies of the following:
general ledger and subsidiary ledgers used to account for (a) the receipt of SLFRF payments and (b)
the disbursements from such payments to meet eligible expenses related to the COVID-19 public health
emergency or its negative economic impacts;
budget records;
payroll, time records, human resource records to support costs incurred for payroll expenses related to
addressing the COVID-19 public health emergency or its negative economic impacts;

grant recipients and subrecipients;
all documentation supporting the performance outcomes of contracts, subcontracts, grant awards, and
grant recipient subawards;
all internal and external email/electronic communications related to use of SLFRF payments; and
all investigative files and inquiry reports involving SLFRF payments.
v. The DEPARTMENT may conduct an audit of the project’s financial records upon approval of the final request
by DEPARTMENT financial staff. The DEPARTMENT may issue an audit report with no deductions or may
find some costs ineligible for reimbursement.
vi. Adhere to Single Audit requirements that state recipients and subrecipients that expend more than $750,000 in
Federal awards during the GRANTEE’s fiscal year will be subject to an audit under the Single Audit Act and its
implementing regulation at 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F regarding audit requirements. Recipients and their
subrecipients may also refer to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Compliance Supplements for
audits of federal funds and related guidance and the Federal Audit Clearinghouse to see examples and single
audit submissions.
vii. Adhere to Auditee Responsibilities outlined in 2 CFR 200.508. The auditee must:
procure or otherwise arrange for the audit, if required;
prepare appropriate financial statements, including the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards;
4 PR1833 (01/06/2023)
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
promptly follow up and take corrective action of the audit findings;
provide the auditor with access to personnel, accounts, books, records, supporting documentation, and
other information as needed for the auditor to perform the audit.
viii. Final payment will be released pending satisfactory project completion as determined by the DEPARTMENT
and completion of a satisfactory audit.
16. The GRANTEE will:
a. Adhere to all additional provisions which are included in this agreement regarding the SLFRF. Payments from the
SLFRF may only be used to cover expenses that are responding to the public health and negative economic
impacts of the pandemic (which includes several sub-categories).
Usage of these funds must comply with the federal requirements of the SLFRF. The purpose of Michigan Spark
Grants is to modernize local parks and develop new local public recreation opportunities. Scope of work shall
include the development, renovation, or redevelopment of public recreation facilities, and the provision of recreation-
focused equipment and programs at public recreation spaces. Awarded grants must align with EC 2.22 Strong
Healthy Communities: Neighborhood Features that Promote Health and Safety and community projects with the
overall intent to promote and enhance public recreation, equity, tourism, and economic development and recovery
from the COVID-19 pandemic.
GRANTEE will be expected to coordinate, not to supplant, funding with other partners, Agency local office, and
other SLFRF funding.
SLFRF can fund expenses and services accrued during the pandemic; however, the cost incurred to address the
eligible uses of SLFRF must have occurred after October 1, 2022, see section b below. Funds must be obligated
by GRANTEE into third party contracts by December 31, 2024 and expended by October 31, 2026.
SLFRF is federal funding and, as such, funds from this project cannot be used to pay expenses that will be or have
been reimbursed by another federal program.
Treasury’s Final Rule also provides more information on important restrictions on use of SLFRF award funds:
i. Recipients may not deposit SLFRF funds into a pension fund;
ii. Recipients may not use SLFRF funds as non-Federal match where prohibited;
iii. In addition, the Final Rule clarifies certain uses of SLFRF funds outside the scope of eligible uses, including
that recipients generally may not use SLFRF funds directly to service debt, satisfy a judgment or settlement, or
contribute to a “rainy day” fund. Recipients should refer to Treasury’s Final Rule for more information on these
restrictions.
b. Pre-award eligible expenditures are allowed in the areas of administration, planning, design and engineering if they
are directly related to the project and were incurred after October 1, 2022.
c. Complete construction of the project facilities to the satisfaction of the DEPARTMENT including but not limited to
the following:
i. Competitively bid, following 16.c.v, and then retain the services of a professional architect, landscape
architect, or engineer, registered in the State of Michigan to serve as the GRANTEE’S Prime Professional.
The Prime Professional shall prepare the plans, specifications and bid documents for the project and oversee
project construction.
ii. Within 180 days of execution of this Agreement, and before soliciting bids or quotes or incurring costs other
than costs associated with the development of plans, specifications, or bid documents, provide the
DEPARTMENT with plans, specifications, and bid documents for the project facilities, sealed by the
GRANTEE’S Prime Professional.
iii. Upon DEPARTMENT approval of plans, specifications and bid documents, openly advertise and seek written
bids for contracts for purchases or services with a value equal to or greater than $50,000 and accept the
lowest qualified bid as determined by the GRANTEE’S Prime Professional.

AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
determined by the GRANTEE’S Prime Professional.
v. Maintain detailed written records of the contracting processes used and submit these records to the
DEPARTMENT upon request.

accordance with the following authorities: Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) Public Law 88-352,
42 U.S.C. 2000d-1 et seq., and the Department's implementing regulations, 31 CFR part 22; Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504), Public Law 93-112, as amended by Public Law 93-516, 29 U.S.C.
794; Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX), 20 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and the Department's
implementing regulations, 31 CFR part 28; Age Discrimination Act of 1975, Public Law 94-135, 42 U.S.C. 6101
et seq., and the Department implementing regulations at 31 CFR part 23. In order to carry out its enforcement
responsibilities under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, Treasury will collect and review information from recipients

Treasury’s implementing regulations, 31 CFR part 22, and the Department of Justice (DOJ) regulations,
Coordination of Non-discrimination in Federally Assisted Programs, 28 CFR part 42, provide for the collection
of data and information from recipients (see 28 CFR 42.406). Treasury may request that recipients submit data
for post-award compliance reviews, including information such as a narrative describing their Title VI
compliance status.
viii. Correct any deficiencies discovered at the final inspection within 90 days of written notification by the
DEPARTMENT. These corrections shall be made at the GRANTEE’S expense and are eligible for
reimbursement at the discretion of the DEPARTMENT and only to the degree that the GRANTEE’S prior
expenditures made toward completion of the project are less than the grant amount allowed under this
Agreement.
ix. Comply with the Davis–Bacon Act, as amended (40 U.S.C. 3141–3148). When required by Federal program
legislation, all prime construction contracts in excess of $2,000 awarded by non–Federal entities must include a
provision for compliance with the Davis–Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 3141–3144, and 3146–3148) as supplemented
by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5, “Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to Contracts
Covering Federally Financed and Assisted Construction”). In accordance with the statute, contractors must be
required to pay wages to laborers and mechanics at a rate not less than the prevailing wages specified in a
wage determination made by the Secretary of Labor. In addition, contractors must be required to pay wages
not less than once a week. The non–Federal entity must place a copy of the current prevailing wage
determination issued by the Department of Labor in each solicitation. The decision to award a contract or
subcontract must be conditioned upon the acceptance of the wage determination. The non–Federal entity must
report all suspected or reported violations to the Federal awarding agency. The contracts must also include a
provision for compliance with the Copeland “Anti–Kickback” Act (40 U.S.C. 3145), as supplemented by
Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 3, “Contractors and Subcontractors on Public Building or Public
Work Financed in Whole or in Part by Loans or Grants from the United States”). The Act provides that each
contractor or subrecipient must be prohibited from inducing, by any means, any person employed in the
construction, completion, or repair of public work, to give up any part of the compensation to which he or she is
otherwise entitled. The non–Federal entity must report all suspected or reported violations to the Federal
awarding agency.
x. Comply with Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3701–3708). Where applicable, all
contracts awarded by the non–Federal entity in excess of $100,000 that involve the employment of mechanics
or laborers must include a provision for compliance with 40 U.S.C. 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by
Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5). Under 40 U.S.C. 3702 of the Act, each contractor must be
required to compute the wages of every mechanic and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of 40
hours. Work in excess of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is compensated at a
rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours in the
work week. The requirements of 40 U.S.C. 3704 are applicable to construction work and provide that no laborer
6 PR1833 (01/06/2023)
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or under working conditions which are unsanitary,
hazardous, or dangerous. These requirements do not apply to the purchases of supplies or materials or articles
ordinarily available on the open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence.

DEPARTMENT, and to appropriate such monies and/or provide such services as shall be necessary to provide such
adequate maintenance.
e. Provide to the DEPARTMENT upon request, a complete tariff schedule containing all charges to be assessed
against the public utilizing the project area and/or any of the facilities constructed thereon, and to provide to the
DEPARTMENT for approval, all amendments thereto before the effective date of such amendments. Membership
or annual permit systems are prohibited, except to the extent that differences in admission and other fees may be
instituted based on residence. Nonresident fees shall not exceed twice that charged residents. If no resident fees
are charged, nonresident fees may not exceed the rate charged residents at other comparable state and local public
recreation facilities.
f. Adopt ordinances and/or resolutions necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Agreement; certified copies of all
ordinances and/or resolutions adopted for these purposes shall be forwarded to the DEPARTMENT before the
effective date thereof.
g. Maintain the premises in such condition as to comply with all federal, state, and local laws which may be applicable
and to make any and all payments required for all taxes, fees, or assessments legally imposed against the project
area.
h. Should the GRANTEE convey any portion of the awarded funding to a subrecipient in a pass-through manner,
GRANTEE must ensure that all requirements outlined in this Agreement are adhered to. Every subaward is to be
clearly outlined in a secondary agreement between the GRANTEE and the subrecipient which includes the
minimum information identified in Appendix A at the time of the subaward and if any of the project elements change,
include the changes in subsequent subaward modification. If any of this required information is not available at the
time of the subaward, the subrecipient must provide the best information available to describe the Federal award
and subaward.
17. With this project having match, the GRANTEE will:
a. Immediately make available all funds required to complete the project and to provide $24,000.00 in local match.
This sum represents 8% of the total eligible cost of construction including engineering costs. Any cost overruns
incurred to complete the project facilities called for by this Agreement shall be the sole responsibility of the
GRANTEE.
18. Only eligible costs and expenses incurred toward completion of the project facilities during the project period shall be
considered under the terms of this Agreement. Any costs and expenses incurred after the project period shall be the sole
responsibility of the GRANTEE.

the compliance and reporting guidance. Expenditures may be reported on a cash or accrual basis, as long as the
methodology is disclosed and consistently applied. Reporting must be consistent with the definition of expenditures
pursuant to 2 CFR 200.1. Recipients shall appropriately maintain accounting records for compiling and reporting accurate,
compliant financial data, in accordance with appropriate accounting standards and principles. In addition, where
appropriate, recipient must establish controls to ensure completion and timely submission of all mandatory performance
and/or compliance reporting. See Part 2 of this guidance for a full overview of recipient reporting responsibilities. There are
two types of reporting requirements that subrecipients must report against each quarter – project and expenditure
requirements and programmatic data requirements. The DEPARTMENT contact will provide additional details on the
specific requirements including a detailed reporting plan and template based on the reporting requirements specific to your
program and the expenditure category. SLFRF expenditure categories also determine the reporting requirements for the
programmatic data report. This information and associated templates will be communicated to you in the reporting plan
which will inform the programmatic data requirements.
20. To be eligible for funding, the GRANTEE shall comply with DEPARTMENT requirements. At a minimum, the GRANTEE
shall:
a. Submit a project and expenditure report every 90 days during the project period.

24. Unless an exemption has been authorized by the DEPARTMENT pursuant to this Section, the GRANTEE hereby
represents that it possesses fee simple title, free of all liens and encumbrances, to the project area. The fee simple title
acquired shall not be subject to: (a) any possibility of reversion or right of entry for condition broken or any other executory
limitation which may result in defeasance of title or (b) to any reservation or prior conveyance of coal, oil, gas, sand,
gravel or other mineral interests.
25. The GRANTEE shall not allow any encumbrance, lien, security interest, mortgage or any evidence of indebtedness to
8 PR1833 (01/06/2023)
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
attach to or be perfected against the project area or project facilities included in this Agreement within the twenty-year
useful life period.
26. None of the project area nor any of the project facilities constructed under this Agreement shall be wholly or partially
conveyed during the twenty-year useful life period, either in fee or otherwise or leased for a term of years or for any other
period, nor shall there be any whole or partial transfer of the lease title, ownership, or right of maintenance or control by
the GRANTEE except with the written approval and consent of the DEPARTMENT.
27. The assistance provided to the GRANTEE as a result of this Agreement is intended to have a lasting effect on the supply
of outdoor recreation, scenic beauty sites, and recreation facilities beyond the financial contribution alone and commits the
project area within the twenty-year useful life period to Michigan’s outdoor recreation estate, therefore:
a. The GRANTEE agrees that the project area or any portion thereof will not be converted to other than public outdoor
recreation use without prior written approval by the DEPARTMENT and implementation of mitigation approved by
the DEPARTMENT, including, but not limited to, replacement with land of equal of greater recreational usefulness
and market value.
b. Approval of a conversion shall be at the sole discretion of the DEPARTMENT.
c. Before completion of the project, the GRANTEE and the DEPARTMENT may mutually agree to alter the project
area through an amendment to this Agreement to provide the most satisfactory public outdoor recreation area.
28. Should title to the project area or any portion thereof be acquired from the GRANTEE by any other entity through exercise
of the power of eminent domain within the twenty-year useful life period, the GRANTEE agrees that the proceeds awarded
to the GRANTEE shall be used to replace the lands and project facilities affected with outdoor recreation lands and project
facilities of at least equal or greater market value, and of equal of greater usefulness and locality. The DEPARTMENT
shall approve such replacement only upon such conditions as it deems necessary to assure the substitution of GRANTEE
of other outdoor recreation properties and project facilities of at least equal or greater market value and of equal or greater
usefulness and location. Such replacement shall be subject to all the provisions of this Agreement.
29. The GRANTEE acknowledges that:
a. The GRANTEE has examined the project area and that it has found the property to be safe for public use or that
action will be taken by the GRANTEE as part of the project to assure safe use of the property by the public, and
b. The GRANTEE is solely responsible for development, operation, and maintenance of the project area and project
facilities, and that responsibility for actions taken to develop, operate, or maintain the property is solely that of the
GRANTEE, and
c. The DEPARTMENT'S involvement in the premises is limited solely to the making of a grant to assist the GRANTEE
in developing the project site.
30. The GRANTEE assures the DEPARTMENT that the proposed State-assisted action will not have a negative effect on the
environment and, therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement is not required.
31. The GRANTEE hereby acknowledges that this Agreement does not require the State of Michigan or the federal government
to issue any permit required by law to construct the outdoor recreational project that is the subject of this Agreement. Such
permits include, but are not limited to, permits to fill or otherwise occupy a floodplain, and permits required under Parts 301
and 303 of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, as amended. It is
the sole responsibility of the GRANTEE to determine what permits are required for the project, secure the needed permits,
and remain in compliance with such permits.
32. Before the DEPARTMENT will approve plans, specifications, or bid documents; or give approval to the GRANTEE to
advertise, seek quotes, or incur costs for this project, the GRANTEE must provide documentation to the DEPARTMENT
that indicates either:
a. It is reasonable for the GRANTEE to conclude, based on the advice of an environmental consultant, as appropriate,
that no portion of the project area is a facility as defined in Part 201 of the Michigan Natural Resources and
Environmental Protection Act, Act 451 of the Public Acts of 1994, as amended; or
b. If any portion of the project area is a facility, documentation that Department of Environment, Great Lakes and
Energy-approved response actions have been or will be taken to make the site safe for its intended use within the
project period prior to public use of the property, and that implementation and long-term maintenance of response
actions will not hinder public outdoor recreation use and/or the resource protection values of the project area.
9 PR1833 (01/06/2023)
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
33. If the DEPARTMENT determines that, based on contamination, the project area will not be made safe for the planned
recreation use within the project period, or another date established by the DEPARTMENT in writing, or if the
DEPARTMENT determines that the presence of contamination will reduce the overall usefulness of the property for public
recreation and resource protection, the grant may be cancelled by the DEPARTMENT with no reimbursement made to the
GRANTEE.
34. The GRANTEE shall acquire and maintain, or cause to be acquired or maintained, insurance which will protect the
GRANTEE from claims which may arise out of or result from the GRANTEE’S operations under this Agreement, whether
performed by the GRANTEE, a subcontractor or anyone directly or indirectly employed by the GRANTEE, or anyone for
whose acts any of them may be liable. Such insurance shall be with companies authorized to do business in the State of
Michigan in such amounts and against such risks as are ordinarily carried by similar entities, including but not limited to
public liability insurance, worker’s compensation insurance or a program of self-insurance complying with the
requirements of Michigan law. The GRANTEE shall provide evidence of such insurance to the DEPARTMENT at its
request.
35. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impose any obligation upon the DEPARTMENT to operate, maintain or
provide funding for the operation and/or maintenance of any recreational facilities in the project area.
36. The GRANTEE hereby represents that it will defend any suit brought against either party which involves title, ownership,
or specific rights, including appurtenant riparian rights, of any lands connected with or affected by this project.
37. The GRANTEE is responsible for the use and occupancy of the premises, the project area, and the facilities thereon. The
GRANTEE is responsible for the safety of all individuals who are invitees or licensees of the premises. The GRANTEE will
defend all claims resulting from the use and occupancy of the premises, the project area, and the facilities thereon. The
DEPARTMENT is not responsible for the use and occupancy of the premises, the project area, and the facilities thereon.
38. Failure by the GRANTEE to comply any of the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute a material breach of this
Agreement.
39. Upon breach of the Agreement by the GRANTEE, the DEPARTMENT, in addition to any other remedy provided by law,
may:
a. Terminate this Agreement; and/or
b. Withhold and/or cancel future payments to the GRANTEE on any or all current recreation grant projects until the
violation is resolved to the satisfaction of the DEPARTMENT; and/or
c. Require the GRANTEE to pay penalties or perform other acts of mitigation or compensation as directed by the
DEPARTMENT; and/or
d. Require repayment of grant funds paid to GRANTEE; and/or
e. Require specific performance of the Agreement.
40. This Agreement may be canceled by the DEPARTMENT, upon 30 days written notice, due to Executive Order, budgetary
reduction, other lack of funding, upon request by the GRANTEE, or upon mutual agreement by the DEPARTMENT and
GRANTEE. The DEPARTMENT shall honor requests for just and equitable compensation to the GRANTEE for all
satisfactory and eligible work completed under this Agreement up until 30 days after written notice, upon which time all
outstanding reports and documents are due to the DEPARTMENT and the DEPARTMENT will no longer be liable to pay
the GRANTEE for any further charges to the grant.
41. The GRANTEE agrees that the benefit to be derived by the State of Michigan from the full compliance by the GRANTEE
with the terms of this Agreement is the preservation, protection and net increase in the quality of public recreation facilities
and resources which are available to the people of the State and of the United States and such benefit exceeds to an
immeasurable and unascertainable extent the amount of money furnished by the State of Michigan by way of assistance
under the terms of this Agreement. The GRANTEE agrees that after final reimbursement has been made to the
GRANTEE, repayment by the GRANTEE of grant funds received would be inadequate compensation to the State for any
breach of this Agreement. The GRANTEE further agrees therefore, that the appropriate remedy in the event of a breach
by the GRANTEE of this Agreement after final reimbursement has been made shall be the specific performance of this
Agreement.
42. The GRANTEE shall return all grant money if the project area or project facilities are not constructed, operated or used in
accordance with this Agreement.
10 PR1833 (01/06/2023)
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
43. The GRANTEE agrees that any funds received under this grant and expended in a manner that does not comply with the
American Rescue Plan Act (Public Law 117-2) and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder the Uniform
Guidance (2 CFR 200), Michigan state law and regulations, and/or the terms and conditions of this award, as applicable,
shall be returned to the State of Michigan. Should any grant funds that are provided by the State of Michigan under this
agreement found to be based on incomplete, inaccurate, nonqualifying, or fraudulent information, in whole or in part, all
grant funds provided to the recipient shall be returned to the State of Michigan. SLFRFs provided by the State of Michigan
must adhere to the US Department of Treasury’s Interim and Final Rule, and such other federal regulations and federal
guidance as may be issued regarding use of funds, eligible expenditures and proper grant administration. In accordance
with the Uniform Guidance (including but not limited to, sections §200.332 and §§200.339-200.343), the State of Michigan
reserves the right to monitor the recipient and take such corrective action for noncompliance as it deems necessary and
appropriate, including but not limited to, termination of the grant agreement and return of funds previously provided to the
recipient. Any amounts subject to recovery must be repaid within 120 calendar days of receipt of any notice of
recoupment.
44. The GRANTEE will take reasonable measures to safeguard protected personally identifiable information and other
information the US Department of Treasury or State of Michigan designates as sensitive or the recipient considers
sensitive consistent with applicable Federal, State, local, and tribal laws regarding privacy and responsibility over
confidentiality in accordance with the Uniform Guidance (including but not limited to, sections §200.303 and §200.338)
and the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. § 552a).
45. The GRANTEE agrees not to discriminate against an employee or applicant for employment with respect to hire, tenure,
terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, or a matter directly or indirectly related to employment, because of
religion, race, color, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, height, weight, marital status, partisan considerations, or
a disability or genetic information that is unrelated to the person's ability to perform the duties of a particular job or
position. The GRANTEE further agrees that any subcontract shall contain non-discrimination provisions which are not less
stringent than this provision and binding upon any and all subcontractors. A breach of this covenant shall be regarded as
a material breach of this Agreement.
46. The DEPARTMENT shall terminate this Agreement and recover grant funds paid if the GRANTEE or any subcontractor,
manufacturer, or supplier of the GRANTEE appears in the register compiled by the Michigan Department of Licensing
and Regulatory Affairs pursuant to Public Act No. 278 of 1980.
47. The GRANTEE may not assign or transfer any interest in this Agreement without prior written authorization of the
DEPARTMENT.
48. The rights of the DEPARTMENT under this Agreement shall continue through and until the expiration of the twenty-year
useful life period.
If this Agreement is approved by Resolution, a true copy must be attached to this Agreement. A sample Resolution is attached.

AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
Appendix A
CFR 200.331±200.333 Subrecipient Pass-through Monitoring and Management Requirements
A. GRANTEE shall ensure that every subaward is clearly identified to the subrecipient as a subaward and includes the
following information at the time of the subaward and if any of these data elements change, include the changes in
subsequent subaward modification. When some of this information is not available, the pass-through entity must
provide the best information available to describe the Federal award and subaward. Required information includes:
1. Federal award identification.
a. Subrecipient name (which must match the name associated with its unique entity identifier)
b. Subrecipient's unique entity identifier
c. Federal Award Identification Number (FAIN)
d. Federal Award Date (see the definition of Federal award date in § 200.1 of this part) of award to the
recipient by the Federal agency
e. Subaward Period of Performance Start and End Date
f. Subaward Budget Period Start and End Date
g. Amount of Federal Funds Obligated by this action by the pass-through entity to the subrecipient
h. Total Amount of Federal Funds Obligated to the subrecipient by the pass-through entity including the
current financial obligation
i. Total Amount of the Federal Award committed to the subrecipient by the pass-through entity
j. Federal award project description, as required to be responsive to the Federal Funding Accountability and
Transparency Act (FFATA)
k. Name of Federal awarding agency, pass-through entity, and contact information for awarding official of the
Pass-through entity
l. Assistance Listings number and Title; the pass-through entity must identify the dollar amount made
available under each Federal award and the Assistance Listings Number at time of disbursement
m. Identification of whether the award is R&D; and
n. Indirect cost rate for the Federal award (including if the de minimis rate is charged) per § 200.414
2. All requirements imposed by the pass-through entity on the subrecipient so that the Federal award is used in
accordance with Federal statutes, regulations and the terms and conditions of the Federal award
3. Any additional requirements that the pass-through entity imposes on the subrecipient in order for the pass-
through entity to meet its own responsibility to the Federal awarding agency including identification of any
required financial and performance reports
4. (i) An approved federally recognized indirect cost rate negotiated between the subrecipient and the Federal
Government. If no approved rate exists, the pass-through entity must determine the appropriate rate in
collaboration with the subrecipient, which is either:
a. The negotiated indirect cost rate between the pass-through entity and the subrecipient; which can be
based on a prior negotiated rate between a different PTE and the same subrecipient. If basing the rate on
a previously negotiated rate, the pass-through entity is not required to collect information justifying this
13 PR1833 (01/06/2023)
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
rate, but may elect to do so;
b. The de minimis indirect cost rate.
(ii) The pass-through entity must not require use of a de minimis indirect cost rate if the subrecipient has a
Federally approved rate. Subrecipients can elect to use the cost allocation method to account for indirect costs
in accordance with § 200.405(d).
5. A requirement that the subrecipient permit the pass-through entity and auditors to have access to the
subrecipient's records and financial statements as necessary for the pass-through entity to meet the
requirements of this part; and
6. Appropriate terms and conditions concerning closeout of the subaward.
B. GRANTEE shall evaluate each subrecipient's risk of noncompliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the
terms and conditions of the subaward for purposes of determining the appropriate subrecipient monitoring described
in paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, which may include consideration of such factors as:
1. The subrecipient's prior experience with the same or similar subawards;
2. The results of previous audits including whether or not the subrecipient receives a Single Audit in accordance
with Subpart F of this part, and the extent to which the same or similar subaward has been audited as a major
program
3. Whether the subrecipient has new personnel or new or substantially changed systems; and
4. The extent and results of Federal awarding agency monitoring (e.g., if the subrecipient also receives Federal
awards directly from a Federal awarding agency).
C. GRANTEE shall consider imposing specific subaward conditions upon a subrecipient if appropriate as described in §
200.208.
D. GRANTEE shall monitor the activities of the subrecipient as necessary to ensure that the subaward is used for
authorized purposes, in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the
subaward; and that subaward performance goals are achieved. Pass-through entity monitoring of the subrecipient
must include:
1. Reviewing financial and performance reports required by the pass-through entity.
2. Following-up and ensuring that the subrecipient takes timely and appropriate action on all deficiencies
pertaining to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity detected through
audits, on-site reviews, and written confirmation from the subrecipient, highlighting the status of actions planned
or taken to address Single Audit findings related to the particular subaward.
3. Issuing a management decision for applicable audit findings pertaining only to the Federal award provided to
the subrecipient from the pass-through entity as required by § 200.521.
4. The pass-through entity is responsible for resolving audit findings specifically related to the subaward and not
responsible for resolving crosscutting findings. If a subrecipient has a current Single Audit report posted in the
Federal Audit Clearinghouse and has not otherwise been excluded from receipt of Federal funding (e.g., has
been debarred or suspended), the pass-through entity may rely on the subrecipient's cognizant audit agency or
cognizant oversight agency to perform audit follow-up and make management decisions related to cross-cutting
findings in accordance with section § 200.513(a)(3)(vii). Such reliance does not eliminate the responsibility of
the pass-through entity to issue subawards that conform to agency and award-specific requirements, to manage
risk through ongoing subaward monitoring, and to monitor the status of the findings that are specifically related
to the subaward.
E. Depending upon the pass-through entity’s assessment of risk posed by the subrecipient (as described in paragraph
(b) of this section), the following monitoring tools may be useful for the pass-through entity to ensure proper
accountability and compliance with program requirements and achievement of performance goals:
14 PR1833 (01/06/2023)
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT AGREEMENT
1. Providing subrecipients with training and technical assistance on program-related matters; and
2. Performing on-site reviews of the subrecipient's program operations;
3. Arranging for agreed-upon-procedures engagements as described in § 200.425.
F. GRANTEE shall verify that every subrecipient is audited as required by Subpart F of this part when it is expected
that the subrecipient's Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or exceeded the
threshold set forth in § 200.501.
G. GRANTEE shall consider whether the results of the subrecipient's audits, on-site reviews, or other monitoring
indicate conditions that necessitate adjustments to the pass-through entity's own records.
H. GRANTEE shall consider taking enforcement action against noncompliant subrecipients as described in § 200.339
of this part and in program regulations.
I. Fixed amount subawards, with prior written approval from the Federal awarding agency, a pass-through entity may
provide subawards based on fixed amounts up to the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, provided that the subawards
meet the requirements for fixed amount awards in § 200.201 Use of grant agreements (including fixed amount
awards), cooperative agreements, and contracts.

Hearing, Case 2023-21: Staff-initiated request to rezone the property at 417 Jackson Ave from R-1, Low
Density Single-Family Residential to Form Based Code, Neighborhood Core.
SUMMARY
1. The property is currently zoned R-1, Low-Density Single-Family Residential. The seven-acre lot
contains the former Froebel School building that measures 22,614 sf.
2. Staff is proposing to rezone the property in order to allow for the renovation of the former Froebel
School building into affordable residential apartments. The condition of the building is
deteriorating quickly and must be redeveloped soon to avoid demolition. Staff has shown the
building to numerous developers over the years and has finally found an entity that is capable of
its renovation.
3. The Form Based Code, Neighborhood Core designation allows a variety of housing options,
ranging from rowhouses to large multiplexes, with a maximum height of five stories. This context
area allows for large multiplex buildings, which this existing building would be considered if it
were renovated to residential. This is the least-intense context area that allows for small
multiplexes.
4. The eastern and southern edges of this property have severe development limitations since there is
a lack of infrastructure to support new buildings. The topography of the site does not allow for the
installation of new infrastructure without a costly lift station. Development of the southern and
eastern edges of the property are unlikely.
5. Notice was sent to all properties within 300 feet of this address. At the time of this writing, staff
had not received any comments from the public.

Hearing, Case 2023-18: Request to rezone the property at 1225 E Laketon Ave from I-2, General Industrial
to B-4, General Business, by Tread Monkey, LLC.
SUMMARY
1. The property is zoned I-2, General Industrial and is located at the northern edge of the Medendorp
Industrial Center.
2. The applicant is seeking a rezoning in order to allow Tread Monkey (tire changing business) to
locate there. They specialize in chaining tires at the scene, but would like to provide a physical
location as well.
3. The B-4 district allows auto repair and similar businesses as long as work is done in a completely
enclosed building. The building on site will not accommodate this type of use, but the applicant
intends on building a small structure in which they will change tires. There appears to be adequate
space to do so in front of the existing building.
4. Please see the enclosed ordinance excerpt for B-4, General Business districts.
5. Notice was sent to all properties within 300 feet of this address. At the time of this writing, staff

Planning Commission Packet Excerpt - July 13, 2023
Hearing, Case 2023-15: Staff initiated request to amend Section 2333 of the zoning ordinance to modify the
requirements on fencing.
SUMMARY
1. Staff is proposing certain modifications to Section 2333 (Landscaping, Fencing, Walls, Screens and
Lighting) of the zoning ordinance.
2. The amendments clarify which types of fencing are allowed. Vinyl is typically an acceptable type of
stockade fence. Picket, split-rail, and wrought iron are also acceptable types of open fencing that is
typically allowed. Specifically identifying these types of allowed fences will assist staff with
enforcement on home-made fencing.
3. Staff has proposed to prohibit metal slats and screening tarps that can be incorporated into chain link
or other types of fencing. These measures rarely assist in screening and usually become a blight.
Proposed Ordinance
12. Fencing, all Districts: The placement of a fence requires a development permit or site plan approval.
Fencing shall be properly maintained. Fencing materials used shall consist of the following:
a. Wood or vinyl stockade fences of standard commercial construction. The finished side of the
fence shall face abutting properties.
b. Open fences such as chain link, picket, split-rail, and wrought iron fencing. . Woven slats, mesh,
and other screening materials are prohibited with these fencing types.
c. Masonry walls designed and constructed to facilitate maintenance and not modifying natural
drainage in such a way as to endanger adjacent property that is of standard commercial
construction.
13. Placement: A wall, fence or yard enclosure may be erected on the lot line.
14. Height limitations: [amended 10/02]
a. Side and rear yards: In residential districts a wall, fence or yard enclosure may be up to six (6)
feet in height behind any building line of a structure which abuts a street (see Figure 2.9).
b. Front yards: In any residential front yard (in front of any building line of a structure which
abuts a street), the height of a fence shall not exceed three (3) feet, unless an open fence (at least
50% transparent) is provided in which case it may be a maximum height of four (4) feet when
such fence does not reduce visibility or interfere with clear vision at intersections, alleys and
drives. Corner lot exemption: Corner lots may have a six-foot tall fence on the secondary front
yard (along the street that does not contain the main entrance to the home) as long as clear vision
is maintained.

Residential Design Criteria – 2nd Reading
Submitted By: Mike Franzak Department: Planning
Brief Summary: This is a staff-initiated request to amend the residential design criteria section of
the zoning ordinance.
Detailed Summary & Background: Many of the changes are small and for clarification reasons.
Some requirements were removed because they are requirements already listed in the building
codes. The removal of storage requirements and house widths on small lots are the biggest
proposed changes.
The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the amendment.

Planning Commission Packet Excerpt - July 13, 2023
Hearing, Case 2023-16: Staff initiated request to amend Section 2319 of the zoning ordinance to modify the
residential design criteria.
SUMMARY
1. Staff is proposing certain modifications to Section 2319 (Residential Design Criteria) of the zoning
ordinance. Some changes are minor and are just for clarification.
2. Many of the requirements that are proposed for removal are for redundancy because they are already
covered by the building codes. Building codes can also be amended so this will ensure we are following
the most recent codes.
3. Some changes were made to clarify between a building unit and the actual building.
4. Staff has proposed the elimination of the 15% storage space requirement. Recent amendments to this
section included the requirement for either a garage or shed for every property, so storage should not
be an issue. There are also existing codes that prohibit outdoor storage. Storage needs vary by family
and requiring more storage than needed can add additional costs to housing.
5. The ordinance currently requires that lots that are at least 35 feet wide have a house that is at least 24
feet wide and lots that are under 35 feet wide must have a house that is at least 20 feet wide. Many city
lots are 33 feet wide and staff has seen many challenges when working with developers on developing
houses that can fit on these lots. With setback requirements, fire protection requirements and driveway
placement, it can be very difficult to properly fit everything on the lot. Staff is proposing to eliminate
the minimum width for houses on all lots under 40 feet wide. It should also be noted that many of the
33-foot wide lots are very deep. Elimination of this requirement would allow more flexibility with how
houses can be positioned on these narrow lots.
Proposed Ordinance (See attachments for redline version)
SECTION 2319: [RESIDENTIAL DESIGN CRITERIA] [amended 7/98, amended 4/00, amended 8/01,
amended 4/02, amended 3/05,amended 8/06, amended 3/07]
It is the intent and purpose of this section to establish design review standards and controls over housing
development in the City of Muskegon. It is recognized that there are unique design aspects inherent in the
community appearance that need to be preserved and enhanced. The adoption of these criteria will guide and
ensure that all future growth and fits with the unique vernacular of the City of Muskegon's urban setting. A
positive community image: enhances economic development opportunity; safeguards property values; curbs
blight and deterioration; and enhances public safety and welfare.
All single-family houses, duplexes, rowhouses and small multiplexes (3-6 units), other than a mobile home
located in a licensed mobile home park approved under the provisions of Article V, MHP Mobile Home Park

1. Each dwelling unit shall have a minimum living area of five hundred and fifty (550) square feet for a one
(1) bedroom dwelling. For each bedroom, an additional 100 square feet shall be provided. This shall be
measured from the outside wall of the unit as described on the site plan.
2. If a principal structure is less than 850 sqft and is to be located on a lot that is large enough to split under
the zoning regulations, it must be placed in such a fashion as to allow enough room to split the lot and
create an additional buildable lot. The lot does not actually have to be split at the time of construction and
may be done at a later date at the property owners’ discretion.
3. All buildings located in single family residential districts must comply with Section 400.2 of the zoning
ordinance. Multiple family dwellings are only allowed in single-family residential districts if the home has
already been altered with prior approval to allow for multiple dwellings. One-family dwellings may not be
altered to allow for multiple dwellings, not may new homes be built for multiple dwellings.
4. Roof drainage in the form of a roof overhang of at least twelve inches (12") shall be provided to direct

a. Twenty-four (24) feet on lots that are at least forty feet wide. or
b. The average width of the homes on the same street, one block in any direction.
6. A structure with a front elevation view of over 40 linear feet shall have a design offset including but not
limited to; bay windows, covered porches, or structural offsets from the principal plane of the building.
7. In the case of an attached garage, garage doors may not comprise more than fifty percent (50%) of the
width of the front elevation view.

removed. No dwelling unit shall have any exposed towing mechanism, undercarriage or chassis.
8. The subject building shall be aesthetically compatible in design and appearance with other buildings on the
same street, one block in any direction. The review shall include but not necessarily be limited to: roof
pitch, scale, size, mass, minimum transparency, orientation to the street, and overhangs. The foregoing
shall not be construed to prohibit innovative design concepts involving such matters as (but not limited to)
solar energy, view, or unique land contour.
9. The compatibility of design and appearance shall be determined in the first instance by the Zoning
Administrator upon review of the plans submitted for a particular building. The Zoning Administrator's
decision may be appealed, to the Zoning Board of Appeals within a period of fifteen (15) days from the
receipt of notice to the official's decision.
10. Each building shall have established vegetative ground cover no less than 12 months after occupancy.
Approval shall be given by zoning staff of the Planning Department as part of the initial residential site
plan review. A minimum of one shade tree, two and one-half inches (2.5") in diameter, four feet (4') from
the ground or one six-foot (6') evergreen tree shall be provided. Existing landscaping may be accepted in
lieu of this requirement.
11. Each building shall have a garage or a shed providing a minimum of sixty-four square feet (64 sq. ft.) of

Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: August 22, 2023 Title: 30” Water Main Meter
Submitted By: Joe Buthker Department: DPW - Filtration
Brief Summary: An amendment to the Cost Sharing Agreement between the City of Muskegon and
Muskegon County to permit the City to install a water meter on the 30” water main near the Water
Filtration Plant.
Detailed Summary & Background: A 30” water main was recently constructed from the Water Filtration
Plant to the Muskegon Channel. While the primary purpose of this water main was to provide a second
connection to the Muskegon County Northside water system, it also serves the City of Muskegon’s
water system. An existing water meter near the channel measures all water flow into the County water
system, but it does not capture any water flow into the City. Installing a water meter near the Water
Filtration Plant will measure all the water flowing through this main, including the currently unmetered
water flowing into the City. Metering this water as it leaves the Water Filtration Plant is critical to
overseeing water plant operations, managing the water fund, and ensuring regulatory compliance. The
construction phase of this project is expected to begin this fall, and staff will return to the Commission at
a later date for approval of the construction contract.
An amendment to the original agreement between the City and the County is required to permit the City
to install, operate, and maintain the water meter on the county-owned water main. Upon approval from
the City Commission, the amendment will be presented to the Muskegon County Board of Public Works
for approval.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO COST SHARING AGREEMENT
This First Amendment (“First Amendment”) to the Cost Sharing Agreement
(“Agreement”) dated as of 2019 by the County of Muskegon through its Board of Public Works
(“County”), 1903 Marquette Avenue, Muskegon, Michigan 49442 and the City of Muskegon
(“City”), 933 Terrace Street, Muskegon, Michigan 49440, is effective as of September 1, 2023.
The parties agree:
1. The County and the City are parties to the Agreement. This First Amendment supplements
and amends the Agreement.
2. Per the Agreement, the City of Muskegon utilizes the 30-inch County watermain to serve
City customers via connections to the 30-inch watermain south of the Channel along Beach Street.
Water usage by the County through this main is determined using a flow meter located north of
the connections to the City of Muskegon and South of the Channel.
3. As currently configured, the City is unable to measure the flow through the 30-inch County
watermain that is delivered to City customers. Therefore, the following provisions amend and
supplement the Agreement:
a. Add Subsection 1.6 to 1.0 COMMITMENTS BY THE COUNTY as follows:
1.6 The County agrees to allow the placement by the City of a flow meter in the 30-
inch County watermain near the connection to the City of Muskegon watermain per
the attached Exhibit. The County grants the City permission to install the meter and
associated control and power wiring from the meter to the City Water Filtration
Plant. The County recognizes that this meter will be owned, operated, and
maintained by the City of Muskegon.
b. Add Subsection 2.7 to 2.0 COMMITMENTS BY THE City as follows:
2.7 The City agrees, at its cost, to install, operate and maintain a meter in the 30-
inch County watermain near the connection to the City of Muskegon main per the
attached Exhibit. The City will allow the County access to the meter vault if needed
to check on pipe integrity or for other reasonable purposes. The City will give notice
to the County prior to commencement of installation.
4. Except as specifically modified in this First Amendment, the Agreement remains in full
force and effect.

available, the pass-through entity must provide the best information available to describe the Federal
award and subaward. Required information includes:
(1) Federal award identification.

amount made available under each Federal award and the Assistance Listings Number at time
of disbursement
(xiii) Identification of whether the award is R&D; and
(xiv) Indirect cost rate for the Federal award (including if the de minimis rate is charged) per §
200.414
(2) All requirements imposed by the pass-through entity on the subrecipient so that the Federal award
is used in accordance with Federal statutes, regulations and the terms and conditions of the Federal
award
(3) Any additional requirements that the pass-through entity imposes on the subrecipient in order for
the pass-through entity to meet its own responsibility to the Federal awarding agency including
identification of any required financial and performance reports.
(4) (i) An approved federally recognized indirect cost rate negotiated between the subrecipient and
the Federal Government. If no approved rate exists, the pass-through entity must determine the
appropriate rate in collaboration with the subrecipient, which is either:
(A) The negotiated indirect cost rate between the pass-through entity and the subrecipient;
which can be based on a prior negotiated rate between a different PTE and the same
subrecipient. If basing the rate on a previously negotiated rate, the pass-through entity is not
required to collect information justifying this rate, but may elect to do so;
(B) The de minimis indirect cost rate.
(ii) The pass-through entity must not require use of a de minimis indirect cost rate if the
subrecipient has a Federally approved rate. Subrecipients can elect to use the cost allocation
method to account for indirect costs in accordance with § 200.405(d).
Michigan.gov/EGLE Page 6 of 18 EQP1031 (Rev. 12/2022) SRF < $10m
(5) A requirement that the subrecipient permit the pass-through entity and auditors to have access to
the subrecipient's records and financial statements as necessary for the pass-through entity to meet
the requirements of this part,
(6) Appropriate terms and conditions concerning closeout of the subaward.
B) Evaluate each subrecipient's risk of noncompliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the
terms and conditions of the subaward for purposes of determining the appropriate subrecipient
monitoring described in paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, which may include consideration of
such factors as:
(1) The subrecipient's prior experience with the same or similar subawards;
(2) The results of previous audits including whether or not the subrecipient receives a Single Audit in
accordance with Subpart F of this part, and the extent to which the same or similar subaward has
been audited as a major program.
(3) Whether the subrecipient has new personnel or new or substantially changed systems.
(4) The extent and results of Federal awarding agency monitoring (e.g., if the subrecipient also
receives Federal awards directly from a Federal awarding agency).
C) Consider imposing specific subaward conditions upon a subrecipient if appropriate as described in
§ 200.208.
D) Monitor the activities of the subrecipient as necessary to ensure that the subaward is used for
authorized purposes, in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions
of the subaward; and that subaward performance goals are achieved. Pass-through entity monitoring
of the subrecipient must include:
(1) Reviewing financial and performance reports required by the pass-through entity.
(2) Following-up and ensuring that the subrecipient takes timely and appropriate action on all
deficiencies pertaining to the Federal award provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity
detected through audits, on-site reviews, and written confirmation from the subrecipient, highlighting
the status of actions planned or taken to address Single Audit findings related to the particular
subaward.
(3) Issuing a management decision for applicable audit findings pertaining only to the Federal award
provided to the subrecipient from the pass-through entity as required by § 200.521.
(4) The pass-through entity is responsible for resolving audit findings specifically related to the
subaward and not responsible for resolving crosscutting findings. If a subrecipient has a current
Single Audit report posted in the Federal Audit Clearinghouse and has not otherwise been excluded
from receipt of Federal funding (e.g., has been debarred or suspended), the pass-through entity may
rely on the subrecipient's cognizant audit agency or cognizant oversight agency to perform audit
follow-up and make management decisions related to cross-cutting findings in accordance with
section § 200.513(a)(3)(vii). Such reliance does not eliminate the responsibility of the pass-through
entity to issue subawards that conform to agency and award-specific requirements, to manage risk
through ongoing subaward monitoring, and to monitor the status of the findings that are specifically
related to the subaward.
Michigan.gov/EGLE Page 7 of 18 EQP1031 (Rev. 12/2022) SRF < $10m
E) Depending upon the pass-through entity's assessment of risk posed by the subrecipient (as
described in paragraph (b) of this section), the following monitoring tools may be useful for the pass-
through entity to ensure proper accountability and compliance with program requirements and
achievement of performance goals:
(1) Providing subrecipients with training and technical assistance on program-related matters; and
(2) Performing on-site reviews of the subrecipient's program operations;
(3) Arranging for agreed-upon-procedures engagements as described in § 200.425.
F) Verify that every subrecipient is audited as required by Subpart F of this part when it is expected
that the subrecipient's Federal awards expended during the respective fiscal year equaled or
exceeded the threshold set forth in § 200.501.
G) Consider whether the results of the subrecipient's audits, on-site reviews, or other monitoring
indicate conditions that necessitate adjustments to the pass-through entity's own records.
(h) Consider taking enforcement action against noncompliant subrecipients as described in § 200.339
of this part and in program regulations.
H) 200.333 Fixed amount subawards
With prior written approval from the Federal awarding agency, a pass-through entity may provide
subawards based on fixed amounts up to the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, provided that the
subawards meet the requirements for fixed amount awards in §200.201 Use of grant agreements
(including fixed amount awards), cooperative agreements, and contracts.

the grant funds awarded in this Agreement for the purpose of lobbying as defined in the State of
Michigan’s lobbying statute, MCL 4.415(2). “‘Lobbying’ means communicating directly with an official

service that imposes conditions on participation or acceptance of the service that would undermine
efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19 or discourage compliance with recommendations and
guidelines in CDC guidance for stopping the spread of COVID-19 is not a permissible use of SLFRF
funds.

Submitted By: Dan VanderHeide Department: Public Works
Brief Summary: Staff is requesting approval to enter into the attached Certified Local Government (CLG)
Grant Agreement in order to obtain $55,000 from the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) with the
Michigan Strategic Fund (MSF) for monument conservation work at Hackley Park.
Detailed Summary & Background: At the January 10th, 2023 meeting, Commission approved the submittal
of a grant application to the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for monument conservation work at
Hackley Park. The City was selected for a $55,000 award, and will need to pay $22,440 in matching funds
as a part of the grant agreement. Due to an electronic signature requirement, the DPW Director will need
to sign.
The grant will allow us to complete recommended conservation work at the 5 sculptures within Hackley
Park. The plan is to also completed work on the McKinley Statue and the Kearny Statue as they are of
similar age and condition. These two structures are ineligible for grant funding (McKinley is privately
owned, and Kearny is outside the designated historic district boundary). The owners of the McKinley
statue are aware of this and have agreed to participate in the cost for that piece, the cost for the work at
Kearny will be a city responsibility but is ineligible to count towards the match.
The conservator’s report, included at the end of the agreement, estimates the work on all 7 monuments
at $81,520. With articulated or boom lifts and estimated cost increases over the past year the total
project is estimated at $105,000. The City portion, including match, is $50,000.

Page 15 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
Project Work as described in Section II of this Agreement and shall be effective and enforced
through September 30, 2035.

characteristics that originally qualified the project site for entry in the National Register. Further,
the Subgrantee shall maintain the grounds adjacent to and surrounding the Historic Property in a
landscaped environment consistent with the historical character of the Historic Property. Nothing
in this Agreement shall prohibit the Subgrantee from seeking financial assistance from any source

viewing the exterior of the Historic Property. The right of public access shall be for not less than
twelve (12) days per year on an equitably spaced basis, and at other times by appointment.
"Equitably spaced" does not necessarily require public access on a once-a-month basis but may
take into account seasonal and other factors that will most effectively implement the purpose and
intent of the Act. Likewise, what constitutes a "day" will depend upon the Subgrantee's good faith
judgment in complying with the public benefit provisions of the Act, which might reasonably include
opportunities for evening visitation.
The Subgrantee agrees to comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C.§
2000d, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq., and Section 504 of
the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C. § 701 et seq. These laws prohibit discrimination on the
basis of race, religion, national origin, or disability. In implementing public access, reasonable
accommodation to qualified physically challenged persons shall be made in consultation with the
SHPO.
When exterior or interior work is assisted with Certified Local Government grant funds and
the work is not clearly visible from a public right-of-way or the interior work is not normally open to
the public except for the required twelve (12) days per year, then the Subgrantee shall publish
notification giving dates and times when the Historic Property will be open to the public. This notice
shall be published in a general circulation newspaper serving the community or area in which the
Historic Property is located. The Subgrantee shall provide documentation of such notice to the
Grantee each December for as long as the Easement is in effect.

E. Fees Associated with Public Visitation. The Subgrantee may charge a reasonable
nondiscriminatory admission fee for public visitation and access to the Historic Property. If an
admission fee is charged, it shall be established at a rate that will not discourage visitation and
comport with fees charged at comparable historic facilities in the area.
F. Flood Insurance Coverage. The Subgrantee shall maintain flood insurance on the Historic
Property, as required by Section 102(a) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. §
4002 et seq., if it is situated in an area designated by the U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development as one having special flood hazards.
G. Lead-Based Paint. The Subgrantee and its subcontractors agree to refrain from using lead-based
paint in residential structures constructed or rehabilitated with Federal assistance. Such paint is
defined as "any paint containing more than six one-hundredths of one percent lead by weight in the
total nonvolatile content of the paint or the equivalent measure of lead in the dried film of paint
already applied," as provided in 24 C.F.R. § 35.63.

the Grantee prior to beginning any proposed action that may adversely affect the Historic Property.

governmental unit which may adversely affect the Historic Property and of which the Subgrantee
has knowledge.

administration requirements of this Section, the Equal Employment Opportunity provisions set forth
in Section II(N.) of this Agreement shall be applicable to any employment resulting from the use,
repair, maintenance, administration, or accessibility of the Historic Property and the adjacent and
surrounding grounds. The provisions of Section II(N.)(1)-(5) are incorporated by reference in this
Section and shall be included and required by the Subgrantee in every employment contract or
subcontract which results from the use, repair, maintenance, administration, or accessibility of the
Historic Property and its adjacent and surrounding grounds.
The Subgrantee shall administer the Historic Property premises in such a manner that no
person shall, on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, age, familial or
marital status, or disability be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or otherwise
subjected to discrimination under any program or activity directly or indirectly related to the Historic
Property.
J. Requirements of Subleases. In the event that the Subgrantee elects to lease or sublease the
Historic Property, a written agreement including the provisions contained in Section VII(A)-(H) shall
be executed. The Subgrantee shall ensure that any lease agreement concerning the Historic
Property complies with all other relevant terms of this Agreement and that it is consistent with the

or in part by any negligent act or omission, or any willful misconduct by the Subgrantee, any
subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any one of them, or anyone for whose
acts any one of them may be liable. The indemnification established under this Section shall apply
regardless of whether the injury, sickness, disease, or death, or injury to or destruction of property is
caused in part by a party indemnified by this Section. This obligation shall not be construed to negate,
In Process
abridge, or otherwise reduce any other right or obligation of indemnity which would otherwise exist
as to any party or person described in this Section.
B. Non-Limitation. In any and all claims against the Grantee or any of its officers, agents, or employees
by an employee of the Subgrantee, any subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any
of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, the indemnification obligation under
this Section shall not be limited in any way by any limitation in the amount or type of damages,
compensation, or benefits payable by or for the Subgrantee or by or for any subcontractor under
worker’s compensation acts, disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts.
C. Delegation. The Subgrantee shall not delegate any duties or obligations under this Agreement to
a subcontractor or independent contractor unless the Grantee has given written consent to the
delegation. When submitting the request to subcontract, the subcontractor shall include the
following information about the subcontractor:
1. Name of Subcontracting Firm;
2. Work that will be subcontracted;
3. Names of individuals who will perform the subcontracted work; and
4. List any and all Grantee programs through which the subcontractor or the subcontractor’s
employees, officers, directors, members, shareholders or officeholders participate.
Delegation of duties or obligations under this Agreement to a subcontractor or independent contractor
without the prior written consent of the Grantee shall be a material breach of this Agreement. In the event
a subcontractor is approved by the Grantee, the Key Persons for the Subgrantee/Contractor shall be subject
to the requirements set forth in Section II of this Agreement.

SECTION IX
COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, REGULATIONS, GUIDELINES, AND POLICIES
The Subgrantee, in the performance of all activities under this Agreement, shall comply and require
compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances, and codes of the United States, the State of Michigan, and
of local government and shall neither commit nor permit any trespass upon any public or private property
in the performance or attempted performance of any service or activity under this Agreement. The
Subgrantee shall comply and require compliance with all requirements, limitations, regulations, rules,
policies, guidelines, and interpretations which are made applicable to this Agreement by Executive Order
of the President of the United States, by the Governor of the State of Michigan, by the Grantor, by the
Michigan Attorney General, by the Grantee, by the U.S. Congress, or by the Michigan State Legislature, in
connection with this Grant and pursuant to the Act.
In addition to the terms detailed in this Agreement, all Federal requirements governing grants (2
C.F.R. Part 200, consolidating and/or superseding OMB Circulars A-87, A-21 or A-122, which concern cost
principles; A-102 or A-110, which concern administrative requirements; and A-133, which concern audit
requirements) are applicable.
In Process SECTION X
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Any dispute arising under this Agreement that is not amicably resolved by the parties shall be
determined by the Grantee, which shall reduce its decision to writing and furnish a copy of it to the Subgrantee.
The decision of the Grantee shall be final and shall control the subsequent dealings of the parties. The
decision shall not bar the Subgrantee from seeking judicial review or other alternative recourse.
The occurrence of a dispute shall not excuse performance and compliance by the Subgrantee either
prior to or during the pendency of the determination of the Grantee.
SECTION XI
MODIFICATIONS
The Grantee or the Subgrantee may request modification of the Project Work, Project Budget, or
Performance Schedule to be performed by the Subgrantee, provided that such a modification comports with
the intents and purposes of this Agreement and is consistent with the Act, and the regulations, limitations,
guidelines, policies, and interpretations prescribed by the Grantor pursuant to that Act. All requests for
modification shall be submitted in written form by the duly authorized representative of the party requesting
modification prior to their implementation. Failure to obtain prior approval will result in the disallowance of
expenditures.
The modification of a technical specification or procedure for Project Work that, if approved, will not
affect or alter other terms of this Agreement may be accomplished by the written approval of the Grantee's
designee. The modification shall not require the execution of an amendment to this Agreement, but shall
constitute, upon proper approval, a part of this Agreement. Except for approved changes of technical
Page 19 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
specifications or procedures as above provided, the modification of any of the other terms of this Agreement
shall not be valid unless such modification is first approved in writing by both the Grantee and Subgrantee
and only if such modification, after approval, is incorporated in a written amendment to this Agreement
executed by the Grantee and the Subgrantee.
The Grantee alone shall determine whether a requested modification constitutes a request for change
of a technical specification or procedure which will not further affect or alter this Agreement or whether the
requested modification constitutes a request for modifying the terms of this Agreement.
No verbal representation, understanding, agreement, or interpretation of any officer, agent, or
employee of the Grantee or Subgrantee, either before or after the execution of this Agreement, shall modify
any of the terms of this Agreement unless such representation, understanding, agreement, or interpretation
is expressly stated in this Agreement, in an amendment to this Agreement, or in a written approval with
respect to the modification of a technical specification or procedure for performance of the Project Work.
SECTION XII
TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT FOR UNAVAILABILITY OF STATE OR FEDERAL FUNDS
It is the intent and understanding of both parties that this Agreement is contingent upon the receipt by
the Grantee of federal funds pursuant to the Act, and/or the receipt of state funds appropriated by the Michigan
In Process
State Legislature. If federal funds approved or obligated by the Grantor for administration by the Grantee in
connection with this Agreement are at any time rendered unavailable to the Grantee by the Grantor, of if state
funds intended for expenditure to support this Agreement are made unavailable by the Michigan State
Legislature or some other state funding authority, such as the Michigan Department of Technology,
Management and Budget, the Grantee shall then have the right to terminate this Agreement by the giving of
a written notice, the basis, and the effective date of the termination to the Subgrantee. Should this Agreement
be terminated by reason of the unavailability of state or federal funds for the Project Work, all finished or
unfinished documents, data, studies, reports, and other materials prepared by the Subgrantee under this
Agreement prior to the effective date of such termination shall be made accessible in the form of copies to
both the Grantee and Grantor.
In the event of termination under this provision the Subgrantee shall be entitled to receive
reimbursement for allowable expenditures incurred prior to the effective date of termination if the Grantor
approves and releases funds for that reimbursement. Reimbursement to the Subgrantee, in the event of
termination under this provision, shall be made in accordance with Section IV of this Agreement.
SECTION XIII
WITHHOLDING OF FUNDS, SUSPENSION, AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT
A. Applicability. When a Subgrantee has materially failed to comply with this Agreement's stipulations,
terms, standards, or conditions, the Grantee may suspend the Grant, terminate the Grant for cause,
or take such other remedies as may be legally available and appropriate under the circumstances.
The approval of this Agreement and any subsequent payments made under this Agreement will not
Page 20 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
prevent the Grantee from withholding funds because of the Subgrantee's failure to comply with the
requirements of this Agreement or observe applicable Federal or State requirements.
1. Withholding of payments. The Grantee may withhold payments otherwise due to a Subgrantee
if the Subgrantee has failed to comply with the Agreement's reporting requirements, program
objectives, or Award conditions (the “Deficiency”). The Grantee will provide a written advance
notification to the Subgrantee identifying the Deficiency and declaring its intent to withhold
future payments if the Deficiency is not corrected by a specific date (the “Cure Date”). If the
Deficiency is not corrected by the Cure Date, the Grantee will notify the Subgrantee by letter
that payments will not be made until the Deficiency is corrected. When the Deficiency is fully
corrected, payments will be released. Continued noncompliance or a failure to act by the
Subgrantee may result in suspension or termination of this Agreement. (Grant suspensions or
terminations include not only payments being withheld, but also that no additional costs, or only
very limited additional costs, may be authorized by the Grantee to be incurred by the
Subgrantee).
2. Suspension. Suspension is an action taken by the Grantee, which temporarily withdraws or
limits a Subgrantee's authority to act or receive any benefits relating to the Agreement pending
either (1) a corrective action by the Subgrantee as specified by the Grantee or (2) a decision
a.
In Process
by the Grantee to terminate the Agreement.
Notification. When a Subgrantee has materially failed to comply with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the Grantee may suspend the Agreement, in whole or in
part, after giving the Subgrantee 30 days written notice to provide the Subgrantee the
opportunity to cure the condition or show cause as to why the Agreement should not be
suspended. The notice of the suspension will detail the reasons for the suspension, any
corrective action required of the Subgrantee, and the effective date of the suspension.
The suspension may be made effective without previous notice in an emergency situation
such as when a delayed effective date would unreasonably impair the Grantee's
responsibility to protect the Government's interest.
b. Commitments. No commitment of funds incurred by the Subgrantee during a period of
the suspension will be allowed under the Agreement, unless the Grantee expressly
authorizes them in the notice of suspension or an amendment to it. Necessary and
otherwise allowable costs which the Subgrantee could not reasonably avoid during a
period of suspension will be allowed if they result from charges properly incurred by the
Subgrantee before the effective date of the suspension, and not in anticipation of
suspension or termination.
c. Adjustments to payments. Appropriate adjustments to payments submitted by the
Subgrantee after the effective date of suspension will be made either by withholding the
payments or by not allowing the Subgrantee credit for disbursements made in payment
of unauthorized costs incurred during the suspension period.
d. Suspension period. A suspension will remain in effect until the Subgrantee has (1) taken
corrective action to the satisfaction of the Grantee, (2) given written evidence satisfactory
Page 21 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
to the Grantee that corrective action will be taken, or (3) until the Grantee terminates the
Agreement.
3. Termination. Termination is the cancellation of this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time
prior to the date of completion.
a. Termination for cause. The Grantee may terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part,
at any time before the date of completion, whenever it is determined that the Subgrantee
has failed to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Grantee will
promptly notify the Subgrantee in writing of the termination and provide the reasons for
the termination, together with the effective date. Payments made to the Subgrantee or
recoveries by the Grantee under this Agreement when it is terminated for cause will be in
accordance with the legal rights and liabilities of the parties.
b. Termination for convenience. The Grantee or the Subgrantee may terminate this
Agreement in whole or in part when both parties agree that the continuation of the Project
Work would not produce beneficial results commensurate with the further expenditure of
funds. The two parties will agree upon the termination conditions, including the effective
date, and in the case of partial terminations, the portion to be terminated. For partial
terminations, such termination will not affect any preservation agreement or covenant that
In Process
may be executed as a prior condition for this Grant assistance. An amendment to this
Agreement is required for all terminations for convenience.
c. Termination by Subgrantee. The Subgrantee may, with written notification to the Grantee,
unilaterally cancel this Agreement at any time prior to the first payment on the Agreement.
Once initiated, no Project Work financed with Grant proceeds shall be terminated by a
Subgrantee prior to satisfactory completion without approval of the Grantee. After the
initial payment, the Agreement may be terminated, modified, or amended only by mutual
agreement of the Subgrantee and the Grantee pursuant to its terms. Requests for
termination prior to completion must fully explain the reasons for the action and detail the
proposed disposition of the uncompleted work.
d. Commitments. If this Agreement is terminated, the Subgrantee will not incur new
obligations for the terminated portion after the effective date of the termination. The
Subgrantee will cancel as many outstanding obligations as possible. The Grantee will
allow full credit to the Subgrantee for the Federal share of the non-cancellable obligations
properly incurred by the Subgrantee prior to termination. Costs incurred after the effective
date of the termination will be disallowed.
In the event of termination, all finished or unfinished documents, data, studies, reports, and other
materials prepared by the Subgrantee under this Agreement prior to the effective date of termination shall
become the property of the Grantee. However, the Subgrantee shall be entitled to retain copies.
The Subgrantee, in the event of termination under this provision, shall be entitled to receive
reimbursement for expenditures made and services satisfactorily performed under this Agreement prior to the
effective date of such termination. When the Secretary of the Interior's Standards are cited in Section I of this
Page 22 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
Agreement, the Subgrantee shall only be entitled to reimbursement for that Project Work that meets the
Secretary of the Interior's Standards. Reimbursement to the Subgrantee, in the event of termination under
this provision, shall be made in accordance with Section IV of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subgrantee shall not be relieved of its liability to the Grantee for the
damages sustained by the Grantee as the result of any breach of this Agreement until the Grantee so releases
the Subgrantee and has determined for the purpose of set-off the exact amount of damages due the Grantee.
SECTION XIV
EFFECTIVE DATE OF AGREEMENT TERMS
The parties agree and understand that this Agreement shall not take effect unless (1) the Grantor issues
a written authorization to the Grantee for the Project Work described in this Agreement, and (2) this Agreement
is signed by both the Grantee and the Subgrantee. If the Grantee's signature is not obtained, then any Project
Work performed or expenses incurred by the Subgrantee in performance of this Agreement shall be
performed or incurred by the Subgrantee at risk of non-reimbursement.
Further, the Subgrantee understands that, for each fiscal year, Project Work must receive a separate
federal written authorization. A single fiscal year runs for 365 days from October 1 of a year to September 30
of the following year. Therefore, the parties agree that the Grantee is only liable to reimburse the Subgrantee
In Process
for that Project Work which has (1) been satisfactorily performed under a signed agreement, (2) received
federal authorization for the fiscal year in which it was performed, and (3) been performed and completed in
compliance with the terms of this Agreement.
Although this Agreement may have been signed by both parties, any Project Work performed or
expenses incurred by the Subgrantee in fulfillment of this Agreement, when federal authorization for that fiscal
year is lacking, shall be performed or incurred at the sole and singular risk and expense of the Subgrantee.
SECTION XV
SEPARABILITY OF PROVISIONS
It is declared to be the intent of the parties that if any provision of this Agreement or its application to
any persons or circumstances shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such
judgment shall not affect or invalidate the remainder of this Agreement or its application to other persons or
circumstances, unless so provided by the court or unless the severance of such an invalid provision alters the
basic intent or purpose of this Agreement, causes an increase of the Grantee's financial obligation, or renders
impossible the compliance with any applicable statute, regulation, limitation, guideline, policy, or interpretation
prescribed by the Grantor under the Act.
SECTION XVI
EXECUTION AND IMPLEMENTATION
A. Counterparts; Facsimile/PDF Signatures. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts and
delivered by facsimile or in pdf form, and in any such circumstances, shall be considered one
Page 23 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
document and an original for all purposes and shall become effective on the date of the final
signature.
B. Waiver. A failure or delay by the Grantee in exercising any right under this Agreement will not be
presumed to operate as a waiver unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, and a single or partial
exercise of any right will not be presumed to preclude any subsequent or further exercise of that
right or the exercise of any other right.
C. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to
the subject matter, and supersedes all prior agreements whether written or oral, with respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement.
D. Jurisdiction. The parties shall make a good faith effort to resolve any controversies that arise
regarding this Agreement. If a controversy cannot be resolved, the parties agree that any legal
actions concerning this Agreement shall be brought in the Michigan Court of Claims or, as
appropriate, Ingham County Circuit Court in Ingham County, Michigan. The Subgrantee
acknowledges by signing this Agreement that it is subject to the jurisdiction of this court and agrees
to service by first class or express delivery wherever the Subgrantee resides, in or outside of the
United States.
In Process
IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties to this Agreement, by their respective and duly authorized
representatives, hereto subscribe and execute this Agreement as of the day and year first written above.

NOTICE OF REQUIREMENT FOR AFFIRMATIVE ACTION
TO ENSURE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
(EXECUTIVE ORDER 11246)
1. The Offeror's or Bidder's attention is called to the "Equal Opportunity Clause" and the "Standard Federal
Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications" set forth herein.
2. The goals and timetables for minority and female participation, expressed in percentage terms for the
Contractor's aggregate workforce in each trade on all construction work in the covered area, are as
follows:
Goals for Minority Goals for Female
TIMETABLES Participation For Participation In
Each Trade Each Trade
In Process
These goals are applicable to all the contractor's construction work (whether it is Federal or federally
assisted) performed in the covered area.
The contractor's compliance with Executive Order 11246 (the “Executive Order”) and the regulations in
41 C.F.R. § 60-4 shall be based on the contractor's implementation of the Equal Employment Clause,
specific affirmative action obligations required by the specification set forth in 41 C.F.R. § 60-4.3(a), and
the contractor's efforts to meet the goals established for the geographical areas where the contract
resulting from this solicitation is to be performed. The hours of minority and female employment and
training must be substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and the
contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly in each of its projects.
The transfer of minority or female employees or trainees from contractor-to-contractor or from
project-to-project for the sole purpose of meeting the contractor's goals shall be in violation of the contract,
the Executive Order and the regulations in 41 C.F.R. § 60-4. Compliance with the goals will be measured
against the total work hours performed.
3. The contractor shall provide written notification to the Director of the Office of Federal Contract
Compliance Programs within 10 working days of award of any construction subcontract in excess of
$10,000 at any tier for construction work under the contract resulting from this solicitation. The notification
shall list the name, address, and telephone number of the subcontractor; and the geographical area in
which the contract is to be performed.
4. As used in this Notice, and in the contract resulting from this solicitation, the "covered area" is: 350
West Webster Avenue, Muskegon, Michigan 49440.

HACKLEY PARK MONUMENT CONSERVATION PROJECT
STANDARD FEDERAL EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY
CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT SPECIFICATIONS
(EXECUTIVE ORDER 11246)
1. As used in these specifications:
a. "Covered area" means the geographic area described in the solicitation from which this
contract resulted.
b. "Director" means Director, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, United States
Department of Labor, or any person to whom the Director delegates authority.
c. "Employer identification number" means the Federal Social Security Number used in the
Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, U.S. Treasury Department Form 941.
d. "Minority" includes:
i.
In Process
Black (all persons having origins in any of the Black African racial groups not of Hispanic
origin);
ii. Hispanic (all persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American or
other Spanish Culture or origin, regardless of race);
iii. Asian and Pacific Islander (all persons having origins in any of the original peoples of the
Far East, Southeast Asia, the Indian Subcontinent, or the Pacific Islands); and
iv. American Indian or Alaskan Native (all persons having origins in any of the original
peoples of North America and maintaining identifiable tribal affiliations through membership and
participation or community identification).
2. Whenever the contractor, or any subcontractor at any tier, subcontracts a portion of the work involving
any construction trade, the contractor/subcontractor shall physically include in each subcontract in excess
of $10,000 the provisions of these specifications and the Notice which contains the applicable goals for
minority and female participation and which is set forth in the solicitations from which the contract resulted.
3. If the contractor is participating (pursuant to 41 C.F.R. § 60-4.5) in a hometown plan (the “Plan”) approved
by the U.S. Department of Labor in the covered area either individually or through an association, the
contractor's affirmative action obligations on all work in the Covered area (including goals and timetables)
shall be in accordance with that Plan for those trades which have unions participating in the Plan.
Contractors must be able to demonstrate their participation in and compliance with the provisions of any
such Plan. Each contractor or subcontractor participating in an approved Plan is individually required to
comply with his or her obligations under the Equal Employment Opportunity (“EEO”) clause, and to make
a good faith effort to achieve each goal under the Plan in each trade in which it has employees. The
overall good faith performance by other contractors or subcontractors toward a goal in an approved Plan
does not excuse any covered contractor's or subcontractor's failure to take good faith efforts to achieve
the Plan's goals and timetables.
4. The contractor shall implement the specific affirmative action standards provided in paragraphs 7a
through 7p of this Exhibit E. The goals set forth in the solicitation are expressed as percentages of the
total hours of employment and training that the contractor should reasonably be able to achieve for
minority and female utilization in each construction trade in which it has employees in the covered area.
Page 39 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
The contractor is expected to make substantially uniform progress toward these goals in each craft during
the period specified.
5. Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union with whom the
contractor has a collective bargaining agreement to refer either minorities or women, shall excuse the
contractor's obligations under these specifications, the Executive Order, or the regulations promulgated
pursuant thereto.
6. In order for the nonworking training hours of apprentices and trainees to be counted in meeting the goals,
such apprentices and trainees must be employed by the contractor during the training period, the
contractor must have made a commitment to employ the apprentices and trainees at the completion of
their training, subject to the availability of employment opportunities. Training must be in accordance with
training programs approved by the U.S. Department of Labor.
7. The contractor shall take specific affirmative actions to ensure equal employment opportunity. The
evaluation of the contractor's compliance with these specifications shall be based upon the contractor's
efforts to achieve maximum results from these actions. The contractor shall document these efforts fully,
and shall implement affirmative action steps at least as extensive as the following:
a. Ensure and maintain a working environment free of harassment, intimidation, and coercion at
all sites, and in all facilities at which the contractor's employees are assigned to work. The contractor,
where possible, will assign two (2) or more women to each construction project. The contractor shall
specifically ensure that all foremen, superintendents, and other onsite supervisory personnel are
aware of and carry out the contractor's obligation to maintain such a working environment, with
specific attention to minority or female individuals working at such sites or in such facilities.
b. In Process
Establish and maintain a current list of minority and female recruitment sources, provide written
notification to minority and female recruitment sources and to community organizations when the
contractor's or the contractor's union have employment opportunities available, and maintain a
record of the organizations' responses. (See Chapter 17, G. 2. of the Historic Preservation Fund
Manual)
c. Maintain a current file of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of each minority and
female off-the-street applicant and minority or female referral from a union, a recruitment source or
community organization and of what action was taken with respect to each such individual. If such
individual was sent to the union hiring hall for referral and was not referred back to the contractor,
this shall be documented in the file with the reason therefor, along with whatever additional actions
the contractor may have taken.
d. Provide immediate written notification to the Director when the union or unions with which the
contractor has a collective bargaining agreement has not referred to the contractor a minority person
or woman sent by the contractor, or when the contractor has other information that the union referral
process has impeded the contractor's effort to meet its obligations.
e. Develop on-the-job training opportunities and/or participate in training programs for the areas
which expressly include minorities and women, including upgrading programs and apprenticeship
and trainee programs relevant to the contractor's employment needs, especially those programs
funded or approved by the Department of Labor. The contractor shall provide notice of these
programs to the sources compiled under 7b, above.
f. Disseminate the contractor's EEO policy by providing notice of the policy to unions and training
programs and requesting their cooperation in assisting the contractor in meeting EEO obligations;
by including it in any policy manual and collective bargaining agreement, by publicizing it in the
company newspaper; annual report, etc.; by specific review of the policy with all management
personnel and with all minority and female employees at least once a year; and by posting the
company EEO policy on bulletin boards accessible to all employees at each location where
construction is performed.
Page 40 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
g. Review, at least annually, the company's EEO policy and affirmative action obligations under
these specifications with all employees having any responsibility for hiring, assignment, layoff,
termination or other employment decisions including specific review of these items with onsite
supervisory personnel such as superintendents, general foremen, etc., prior to the initiation of
construction work at any job site. A written record shall be made and maintained identifying the time
and place of these meetings, persons attending, subject matter discussed, and disposition of the
subject matter.
h. Disseminate the contractor's EEO policy externally by including it in an advertising in the news
media, specifically including minority and female news media, and providing written notification to
and discussing the contractor's EEO policy with other contractors and subcontractors with whom the
contractor does or does not anticipate doing business.
i. Direct recruitment efforts, both oral and written, to minority, female and community
organizations, to schools with minority and female students and to minority and female recruitment
and training organizations serving the contractor's recruitment area and employment needs. Not
later than one month prior to the date for the acceptance of applications for apprenticeship or other
training by any recruitment sources, the contractors shall send written notification to organizations
such as the above, describing the openings, screening procedures, and tests to be used in the
selection process.
j. Encourage present minority and female employees to recruit other minority persons and
women and, where reasonable, provide after-school, summer and vacation employment to minority
and female youth both on the site and in other areas of a contractor's workforce.
k.
In Process
Validate all tests and other selection requirements where there is an obligation to do so under
41 C.F.R. § 60-3.
l. Conduct, at least annually, an inventory and evaluation of at least all minority and female
personnel for promotional opportunities and encourage these employees to seek or to prepare for,
through appropriate training, etc., such opportunities.
m. Ensure that seniority practices, job classifications, work assignments and other personnel
practices, do not have a discriminatory effect by continually monitoring all personnel and
employment-related activities to ensure that the EEO policy and the contractor's obligations under
these specifications are being carried out.
n. Ensure that all facilities and company activities are nonsegregated except that separate or
single-user toilet and necessary changing facilities shall be provided to assure privacy between the
sexes.
o. Document and maintain a record of all solicitations of offers for subcontracts from minority and
female construction contractors and suppliers, including circulation of solicitations to minority and
female contractor associations and other business associations.
p. Conduct a review, at least annually, of all supervisors' adherence to and performance under
the contractor's EEO policies and affirmative action obligations.
8. Contractors are encouraged to participate in voluntary associations which assist in fulfilling one or more
of the affirmative action obligations (7a through 7p). The efforts of a contractor association, joint
contractor-union, contractor-community (or other similar group of which the contractor is a member and
participant), may be asserted as fulfilling any specifications provided that:
a. the contractor actively participates in the group,
b. makes every effort to assure that the group has a positive impact on the employment of
minorities and women in the industry,
Page 41 of 48
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
c. ensures that the concrete benefits of the program are reflected in the contractor's minority and
female workforce participation,
d. makes a good faith effort to meet its individual goals and timetables, and
e. can provide access to documentation which demonstrates the effectiveness of actions taken
on behalf of the contractor.
The obligation to comply, however, is the contractor's and failure of such a group to fulfill an obligation
shall not be a defense for the contractor's noncompliance.
9. The contractor is required to provide equal employment opportunity and to take affirmative action for all
minority groups, both male and female, and all women, both minority and non-minority. Consequently,
the contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a particular group is employed in a substantially
disparate manner (for example, even though the contractor has achieved the goals for women generally,
the contractor may be in violation of the Executive Order if a specific minority group of women is under
utilized.)
10. The contractor shall not use the goals and timetables of affirmative action standards to discriminate
against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
11. The contractor shall not enter into any subcontract with any person or firm debarred from government
contracts pursuant to the Executive Order.
12. The contractor shall carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of these specifications and of the
In Process
Equal Opportunity Clause, including suspension, termination, and cancellation of existing subcontracts
as may be imposed or ordered pursuant to the Executive Order, as amended, and its implementing
regulations, by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Any contractor who fails to carry
out such sanctions and penalties shall be in violation of these specifications and the Executive Order, as
amended.
13. The contractor, in fulfilling the obligations under these specifications, shall implement specific affirmative
action steps, at least as extensive as those standards prescribed in paragraph 7 of this Exhibit E, so as
to achieve maximum results from the efforts to ensure equal employment opportunity. If the contractor
fails to comply with the requirements of the Executive Order, the implementing regulations, or these
specifications, the Director shall proceed in accordance with 41 C.F.R. § 60-4.8.
14. The contractor shall designate a responsible official to monitor all employment-related activity to ensure
that the company EEO policy is being carried out, to submit reports relating to the provisions thereof as
may be required by the Government, and keep records. Records shall at least include for each employee
the name, address, telephone numbers, construction trade, union affiliation, if any, employee identification
number when assigned, social security number, race, sex, status (e.g., mechanic, apprentice, trainee,
helper, or laborer), dates of changes in status, hours worked per week in the indicated trade, rate of pay,
and locations at which the work was performed. Records shall be maintained in an easily understandable
and retrievable form; however, to the degree that existing records satisfy this requirement, contractors
shall not be required to maintain separate records.
15. Nothing herein provided shall be construed as a limitation upon the application of other laws which
establish different standards of compliance or upon the application of requirements for hiring of local or
other area residents (e.g., those under the Public Works Employment Act of 1977 and the Community
Development Block Grant Program).

Hackley Park Sculptures
1.
Civil War Monument – Aka “Soldiers and Sailors Monument”
Joseph Carabelli 1889 Bronze / Granite
Dimensions of Monument: 80’ (H) 30’ (W) 30’(W) (estimated)
Liberty 12’
4 Figures 7’ 1’10” 1’10” (average)
This monument includes the Liberty sculpture at the top, with 4 other sculptures on the
lower portion including an Artilleryman, Infantryman, Calvaryman, and Sailor. More in-
depth descriptions are featured in the 1994, and 1997-1998 reports.
The monument was examined from a 60’ articulated mobile elevated work platform. It
was not sufficient to get very close to the Liberty statue. The use of a zoom lens on the
DSLR camera was able to aid in the examination. Also note that the sculpture was
In Process
examined in the rain, and so some areas of the sculptures may appear dark where they
are wet. Some areas of the sculptures were dry and thus able to be properly examined.
Previous Treatment
The previous treatment in 1997-1998 included both the bronze and the stone. The
bronze was washed to remove loosely adhered corrosion products, chemically
patinated with hot potassium sulfide, and hot waxed. The granite was considered in
excellent condition aside from a vertical crack on the stone that liberty is mounted to
and washed.
A Cleaning Report report from 2016 was provided and staff indicated that another
maintenance likely occurred in 2018-2019. This includes details of condition issues. It
was noted that 1 can of wax was used, and ¼ cup of detergent was used. It is not noted
what type of wax or detergent was used.
General Conditions pertaining to all 5 sculptures
All 5 sculptures appear in good condition from afar. Up close, blue-green oxidation has
begun to form in a spotted appearance, notably in areas of bolts, along the bottom
edges of the base, high points/edges of elements including the bottoms or folds in
pants, on top of each of the heads. This spotty appearance does seem consistent
throughout each of the sculptures. When the sculpture is examined completely dry, there may be areas with more
significant oxidized areas that may be unsightly. If this were the case, localized patination might be possible, but otherwise
since it is mostly evenly oxidizing, simply waxing may be appropriate.
Page 2 of 10
DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
An unusual spotted and sometimes bubbling has appeared in areas where wax is often
heavily applied. This may be because of a heavy application of wax in that area or a
reaction due to a residue of a soap.
All sculptures have soiling and insect residues and nests.
The 2016 Cleaning Report indicates that the caulk is missing for several of the
sculptures. It may be possible that the conservators in the 1998 treatment never
applied caulk in order to provide for drainage of water.
Notable is that each sculpture was never given an Incralac coating. This was likely
chosen because it appears the previous work was performed from a lift or scaffolding and incralac is difficult to spray
appropriately in-situ. Additionally, it must be replaced when it begins to fail every 7 years, and this may be difficult for the
city to manage. Each sculpture was hot waxed during the 1998 treatment.
Stone
The monument’s stone (granite) was mostly in good condition. The most notable issue was that the stone, along with all of
the other stone monuments appeared to have an uneven shades of yellow discoloration. This was not mentioned in the
1997 treatment report or 1994 Outdoor Sculpture Condition Survey. This phenomenon might appear in images in the 1994
survey, however it is difficult to discern because the pdf is a photocopy.
In Process
On the side between the infantryman and the calvaryman there is a substantial amount of spalling on the side of the stone
that is not present in the 1994 images. It is the conservator’s opinion that this yellow discoloration may have been slowly
forming over time and is much more noticeable now than it was in 1994-1998. It is likely from a consolidation or water
repellent treatment that is ageing, and it may have begun to cause spalling in certain areas, including that mentioned
above. The original lead jointing and the crack on the stone top that were repaired in 1997-1998 appear in good condition.
Liberty
The Liberty sculpture was only examined from 60’, as the wrong lift size was delivered.
Structurally, the sculpture appears in good condition. The dark line along the back of the proper right arm that was
mentioned in 1994, was repaired in 1997-1998 treatment, and it appears to still be holding strong.
In the 2016 cleaning report, it was noted that the eagle was corroded on top and bottom; unfortunately this could not be
seen during this examination.
Spots of crusts forming in crevices is evident. There are more significant areas of oxidation forming in bright green spots,
including a yellow-green, likely from bird droppings.
Sailor (west)
Structurally the sailor appears in good condition. It was noted in the 1997-1998 treatment that the sailor’s cutlass (sword)
was replaced. This was not present in the 2016 report it was noted that a replacement is in the museum’s storage until a
conservator is hired to reattach it.
As mentioned in the general conditions, the sailor’s neckerchief has spots of bubbling in the wax layer. The hat also has
extensive green corrosion formation.
Artilleryman (south)
It was noted in the 2016 cleaning that there is a large spot of corrosion where the water drips on the statue from the
granite above. This area may require patina correction, as it has become green/blue.
Infantryman (east)
The back of the infantryman’s hat appears heavily oxidized, and this may be an area that requires some patina correction.
There is also extensive wax build up as well in crevices, which has also been previously noted.
Cavalryman (north)
Conditions consistent with the above and previous reports, including the missing nut on the back of the base.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 1C2D77AB-5844-473F-BC42-E533EA04ED69
Treatment Questions
1. How much would the city like us to address oxidation (blue-green spotting)? Would a wax removal and replacement
with a tinted wax be sufficient, or just a spot treatment of more substantial oxidized areas, or full re-patination? Full
repatination would be a much more substantial operation, including scaffolding or the deinstallation of the figures. A
lacquer layer would also protect them further. The conservators would suggest the spot treatment, with a tinted wax
at this time, as they have not completely oxidized and from the ground the oxidation is hard to see, but this may be a
consideration for the future.
Treatment Proposal
Setup needs: 1 x 80’ lift and 1 x 40-60’ lift or scaffolding
1. Document before, during, and after treatment in written and photographic methods
2. Wash with a power washer, followed by water washing with 1% Orvus (detergent) and synthetic bristle brushes
to remove dirt, dust, grime, accretions, followed by thorough water washing.
3. Come prepared to perform minor structural repair and patching, as well as toning of previous fills if they have
degraded.
4. Remove wax completely on the entire sculptures with appropriate solvents.
5. Wash sculptures with distilled water to ensure any pervious soaps applied to the sculptures is removed or
deactivated.
6. Excavate areas of bronze disease (light powdery green corrosion). This was not seen in the examination but it will
likely be present in small areas, especially on the Liberty sculpture.

Abraham Lincoln
Charles Henry Neihaus 1899 Bronze / Granite
Dimensions: Estimated 5’ (H) x 4’ (W) with 7’ tall base
Condition
Object is in good condition overall.
On the surface there is red paint on the top of the base near the feet in small areas.
There is significantly more oxidation over several surfaces and areas than the other
sculptures in Hackley Park. This sculpture may be interacted with more often with the
public, as it is much more climbable.
The oxidation is along both of his legs, cloak, upper folds of his clothing and hair, the top
surface of the base.
The wax layer appears to be becoming cloudy overall by most significantly along the back of
the chair.
Review of the 2016 report does not indicate any major changes.
Stone
There appears to be the same yellowing of the stone as the Civil War Memorial, including
some areas of spalling on the base.

Condition
In Process
Good condition. More areas of oxidation including on the strap, along the perimeter
of the base. None disfiguring. Pooling
on top of the base in oxidized iron, so there is likely an area of steel exposed that is
causing this pooling; this was noted to have been growing in the 2016 notes.
Same issues with the base.
It was noted in the 2016 notes that the sword tip and ring from the sword strap were
missing, and these on file in the Museum until a conservator can reattach them. No
other new condition notes visible.
Stone
The same issues as noted for the other stone however this stone appears more
significant drip-like yellow discoloration, as well as from the ferrous oxidation, and a

other high points like the cloak’s edge and top of binoculars.
The strap on the back appears to be hanging inappropriately and has damaged part of
the cloak. This should be checked against historic images to see if this is to be
reassembled in a different way. Part of that strap is scratched as well and has a green
oxidation forming.
Bright green, likely bronze disease (bright green corrosion) forming under the back of

PRE-PROPOSAL QUESTIONS
Please direct all questions to:
- Jamie Pesch, jamie.pesch@shorelinecity.com 231-724-4405 and,
- Tim Harvey, tim.harvey@shorelinecity.com, 616-566-3577
Attention is called to the fact that the City requires that the Contractor employ local trades and laborers
insofar as possible; that 14% minority and 7% female are the goals established for participation in each
trade; that the Contractor must ensure employees and applicants for employment are not discriminated
against based upon their race, creed, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicapped condition not
veteran background; and that all pertinent regulations must be complied with.
The City Commission may give preference to vendors paying Davis Bacon wages on other projects by
awarding contracts when the lowest qualified prevailing wage bid/price is within 1% or less of the lowest
qualified non-prevailing wage bid. When applicable, the 1% preference can be added to the local
preference up to a 3% or $100,000 differential, whichever is less.
The project shall require a bid bond from each bidder in the amount of five percent (5%) of their bid. The
bond will secure the bid. The bond will be released upon award of the contract by the City Commission
for unsuccessful bidders and upon execution of the contract for the successful bidder.
The project shall require a performance bond from the successful bidder for the full amount of the
contract. This bond will be written in such a manner to ensure satisfactory completion of the project. The
bond shall be in effect for one full year after completion of the project. The bond will be released only
after the project is properly completed and one year has elapsed.
The City of Muskegon reserves the right to reject any or all proposals or to waive any informalities or
irregularities in the proposals.

Submitted By: Contessa Alexander Department: Economic Development
Brief Summary: The Lakeside Business Improvement District is requesting a special assessment
for three more years starting in January of 2024.
Detailed Summary & Background:
Funds from the Lakeside BID assessment in 2021-2023 has allowed for the BID to cover items that
keep the integrity of the business district. Funds have been used to cover snow removal,
Christmas decorations, landscaping and maintenance, Lakeside events, and advertisements in the
Visitors Guide.
In order to continue these services, the Lakeside BID has requested a final three-year assessment
at a 20% reduction for 2024-2026, continuing with the current district boundaries. Class A
properties will have a per parcel rate of $0.04 per square foot of lot size for a Commercial Property,
not to exceed $1,600, and $0.02 per square foot of lot size for an Industrial, Automotive or Utility
Property, not to exceed $1,600. The special assessments will be in the winter tax bills. After the
additional three years is complete, the BID will transition into the CIA.
City staff has provided a Special Assessment Packet that outlines the overview of the request, a
letter from the City of Muskegon Assessor, the budget recommendation and explanation, and the
properties included in the assessment. City staff has introduced the special assessment at the City
Commission meeting on August 7th, 2023. If the district is created, a second public hearing will be
held on September 26 to confirm the special assessment roll.

2024-2026 Assessment
From: Contessa Alexander, BID-CIA staff liaison on behalf of the Lakeside Business
Improvement District Board
Date: May 17, 2023
To: Muskegon City Clerk/City Commission
Overview:
The three-year Lakeside Business Improvement District special assessment district
ends on Dec. 31, 2023. It has been successful in providing an essential service in
sidewalk snow removal, allowing for a transition from the Lakeside District
Association to the Corridor Improvement Authority and establishing a future of
quality public services to a critical commercial district between downtown and the
beach.
As time goes on, the CIA’s tax increment financing revenues will grow to replace
the BID revenues. The Lakeside Business Improvement District Board
recommends that the BID be renewed for a final three years, 2024-2026 so as to
complete the transition to the CIA, continuing with current district boundaries,
placing the special assessments on the winter tax bills and recommending that
this be the final BID renewal request.
The rate based upon square footage of land of the assessed commercial
properties, Lakeside BID recommends 2 cents the established rate for industrial,
automotive and utility properties that do not gain as much benefit from the
district as the other commercial uses. The Lakeside BID recommends a 4-cent rate
for the next three years, for all of the commercial properties, based upon financial
analysis of revenues and expenditures. Based upon conservative assumptions, the
recommended rate maintains current services and discretionary funds for the
three years, offers a 20 percent reduction in special assessments and puts the CIA
in a position to continue current services in 2027 and beyond.
2024 - 2026 Assessments:
- “Class A” Properties, as defined in the BID Bylaws, shall be assessed
annually assessment of $0.04/sf with no assessment to exceed $1,600.
Contiguous properties with the same use and same owner shall be assessed
as one property. Property lot size on record with the City Assessor shall be
used in determining the square footage of properties.
- “Class B” properties as defined in the BID Bylaws be assessed annually
assessment of $0.02/sf with no assessment to exceed $1600. Contiguous
properties with the same use and same owner shall be assessed as one
property. Property lot size on record with the City Assessor shall be used in
determining the square footage of properties.
- Based on this assessment structure, approximately $21,334.04 will be
expected to support services for businesses and property owners within the
Lakeside BID during 2024-2026.
- The assessment shall be placed on the 2024, 2025 and 2026 winter
property tax bills. This is the final special assessment the BID is
recommending.
- The 2024-2026 Lakeside BID district, assessment rolls and collection
methods were discussed at Lakeside BID Board meetings on April 12, 2023
and May 17, 2023. A resolution supporting the above recommendation was
voted on at the May 17, 2023 Lakeside BID Board meeting. The vote result

Hearing, Case 2023-20: Staff-initiated request to amend Section 404 of the zoning ordinance to modify rear
setback requirements and to create a front build-to zone in lieu of front setbacks in single-family residential
zones.
SUMMARY
1. Staff is proposing certain modifications to Section 404 of the zoning ordinance to allow property
owners to better maximize the usage of their property. The following are the major amendments to the
proposed ordinance:
Change the minimum front setback requirements to a build-to-zone. This is the method used in
the form based code section of the ordinance. This would allow new houses to be placed
anywhere from 10-30 feet from the front property line. They also have the option to move the
house outside of the build-to-zone if it will match other houses on the block.
Reduce the rear setback requirements in R-1 and R-2 zones to match the 15-foot requirement
of the R-3 zone. The new addition of the build-to-zone requirement in the front, along with the
existing maximum lot coverage requirements, should result in almost all new houses to have at
least a 30-foot rear setback anyway, since most lots in Muskegon are in excess of 100 feet long.
However, this amendment will ease restrictions on odd-shaped lots. Those lots without much
depth will have more opportunities to place their homes on buildable lots.
The current ordinance states that corner lots shall be considered as having two front yards and
must meet the minimum setback requirements for both frontages. This amendment would state
that the secondary street is a side yard and the rear property must also abide by the side setback
requirements. With the build-to-zone in place, along with maximum lot coverage standards, this
should only affect small, irregular lots that have previously been spilt.
Unique block with very small lots (see bottom right corner). Existing houses were placed
when there were fewer zoning restrictions. Remaining lots face development challenges
under current regulations in Section 404.

Commission Meeting Date: August 22, 2023 Title: FEMA Grant Award
Submitted By: Timothy Kozal Department: Fire Department
Brief Summary: The fire department received notification on August 11, 2023 they received a
FEMA grant to replace their aging and often out of service, breathing air compressor and fill
system.
Detailed Summary & Background: In January 2023, the Fire Department applied for a grant from
FEMA through the AFG (Assistance to Firefighters Grant) program. The equipment applied for was a
new breathing air system to fill our air cylinders. Our current breathing air compressor system was
purchased in 1997. The three quotes we received for replacement were from West Shore Fire,
Municipal Emergency Services (MES) and Breathing Air Systems (BAS).
West Shore Fire: Did not provide a shipping cost. Would not entertain a trade-in quote. $ 62,260.97
MES: A newer system on the market. There were no reviews available. Would not entertain a trade-in
quote. $ 74,789.00
BAS: Bauer is the current manufacture we have been using for 26 years. It’s has been proven to be
good unit for us. Service times are usually within 48 hours. Breathing Air Systems will take our unit in
on trade for $5k. They will remove the old system and take it with him when they deliver the new
system. $78,593.80, less the trade in of $5,000 for a total of $73,593.80.
At the time of submitting the grant, BAS quoted for a complete breathing air cascade system with
shipping and installation for $77,250.00. The quote was only valid for 30 days. After the award we
received an updated quote of $78,593.80, less the trade in of $5,000 for a total of $73,593.80.
On August 11, 2023, the fire department received notification from FEMA our grant application was
approved. The grant requires a 10% match of the requested funds.
The fire department is requesting $7,359.38 for the purchase of the $73,593.80 breathing air
compressor and cascade filling station with assistance from FEMA grant funding.
