Muskegon City Commission
Commission Meeting Date: December 13th, 2022 Title: Conservation Easement Agreement
at Remembrance Drive Site
Submitted By: Jake Eckholm Department: Development Services
Brief Summary:
Staff is requesting that Commission authorize a conservation easement agreement between the
City of Muskegon and James Street Capital, owner of the 500,000 square foot warehousing facility
that is operated by KL Outdoors.
Detailed Summary & Background:
During the planning and construction of the large warehousing building in 2017 and 2018, MDEQ
(now EGLE) cited a small piece of regulated wetland on the build-site. The developers at the time
requested that the city consider allowing a conservation easement on an adjacent, non-buildable
city-owned parcel. This was principally agreed upon by all parties as a logical solution, but never
completed. The attached agreement codifies the easement and completes the wetland mitigation
process for this development.
Attached in this item is the easement agreement signed by the current owners of KL Outdoor, a
letter from the city manager's office allowing a mitigation study and easement due diligence on our
property, and an aerial photo illustrating the impacted wetland (which is now built on) in red and
the proposed easement area in blue.
Goal/Focus Area/Action Item Addressed: N/A
Amount Requested: N/A Amount Budgeted: N/A
Fund(s) or Account(s): N/A Fund(s) or Account(s): N/A
Recommended Motion: Motion to approve the Conservation Easement Agreement as presented

This CONSERVATION EASEMENT is created on _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , 2021, by and between the
City of Muskegon (name) married/single individual[s] (circle one), or corporation, partnership, municipality, or
limited liability company (circle one), whose address is 933 Terrace Street, Muskegon, Ml 49440 (Grantor)

The EGLE is the agency charged with administering Part 303, Wetlands Protection, of the Natural Resources

Permittee (2420 Remembrance Drive LC) has applied for a Permit (EGLE Submission Number HNG-Z345-
M1YCQ), pursuant to Part 303, to authorize activities that will impact regulated wetland. The EGLE evaluated
the permit application and determined that a permit could be authorized for certain activities within regulated

ACCORDINGLY, Grantor hereby conveys unto the Grantee, forever and in perpetuity, this Conservation

COVENANTS, TERMS, CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS
1. The purpose of this Agreement is to protect the functions and values of existing or established wetlands

2. Except as authorized under EGLE Permit Number WRP015306, issued on 5/13//2019 or as otherwise

to reduce a threat of infestation posed by diseased vegetation, invasive non-native plant species that
endanger the health of native species or as otherwise provided in the EGLE-approved Management Plan
for the Easement Premises.
4. Granter is not required to restore the Easement Premises due to alterations resulting from causes beyond
the owner's control, including, but not limited to, unauthorized actions by third parties that were not
reasonably foreseeable; natural causes or natural disasters, such as unintentional fires, floods, storms, or
natural earth movement.
5. Granter, Permittee or its authorized agents or representatives may enter the Easement Premises to
perform activities within the Easement Premises consistent with the Permit or the mitigation requirements.
Granter or Permittee shall provide 5 days notice to the Grantee of undertaking any mitigation activity, even

for purpose of taking corrective actions, Grantor shall be provided with 14 days notice to provide the

land in perpetuity, unless modified or terminated by written agreement of the parties.
13. This Agreement may be modified only in writing through amendment of the Agreement. Any modification
shall be consistent with the purpose and intent of the Agreement.
14. In addition to the right of the parties to enforce this Agreement, it is also enforceable by others against the
owner of the land, in accordance with Part 21, Subpart 11 of the NREPA, MCL 324.2140 et seq, as
amended.
15. Granter shall indicate the existence of this Agreement on all future deeds, mortgages, land contracts,
plats, and any other legal instrument used to convey an interest in the Easement Premises.
16. A delay in enforcement shall not be construed as a waiver of the Grantee's rights to enforce the conditions
of this Agreement.
17. This Agreement shall be liberally construed in favor of maintaining the purpose of the Conservation
Easement.
18. If any portion of this Agreement is determined to be invalid by a court of law, the remaining provisions will
remain in force.
