From: Frank Peterson

Re:      City Commission Meeting

Date: November 27, 2017

Here is a quick outline of the items on our agenda:

      1. Under the Consent Agenda, we are asking the Commission to consider the following:
            a. Approval of meeting minutes from the most-recent City Commission meeting.
            b. Approval of a scanning services invoice totaling $18,072.65. Much of the
                document scanning was aimed at the preservation of old building plans, site plans,
                etc. An entire room on the second floor had been dedicated to storing these
                documents, but it had grown cluttered and disorganized over the years. I
                originally approved the scanning services on a per sheet basis expecting 30,000 or
                so sheets to be scanned. We ended up with nearly 65,000, which pushed the cost
                above my threshold for approval. With that said, the service has already been
                completed and we are simply asking the Commission to authorize the expenditure
                after-the-fact.
            c. Approval of the revised purchase agreement with Pigeon Hill Brewing for the
                purchase of a city parking lot on Shoreline Drive. Originally, we had this item on
                the agenda for approval two weeks ago, but decided remove it from consideration
                while we finalized the purchase agreement and land survey. Everything is
                complete and we are proposing to sell Pigeon Hill Brewing the portion of the
                parking lot bounded by Shoreline Drive to the south, 5th Street to the west, 5th
                Street to the east, and the Mart Dock to the north. Pigeon Hill has committed to
                building a brewing/canning facility and tasting room to accommodate their fast-
                growing distribution business. Pigeon Hill Brewing is committed to building a
                facility that helps connect the downtown and the lakeshore architecturally, and
                the MEDC has offered the City of Muskegon $15,000 in planning grants to help
                ensure that the site is designed appropriately to accomplish this.
      2. Under the New Business, we are asking the Commission to consider the following:
            a. Concurrence with the housing board of appeals to demolish 638 Oak Ave.

2017-91           ITEMS REMOVED FROM CONSENT AGENDA:
   B. Market Manager City Clerk
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Over the past year, the market has grown with more
activities, use of the kitchen, and the food hub pilot program. With the addition
of three food truck rallies, Dining in the Dark, Farm-To-Table event, Halloween
Bash, etc. in just the last year or so, the market has grown beyond a part-time
Market Manager. This past year, the Market Manager averaged 35 hours per
week with plenty more to do if able to.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:        When calculating the cost of the Market Manager
through the temporary service, we have found it will cost an additional $4,000
per year to hire a Market Manager full-time with benefits.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:         None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:           To create a full-time position for Market Manager.
Motion by Commissioner Turnquist, second by Commissioner Rinsema-Sybenga,

purchase these properties for a combined cost of $79,000. Staff plans to convert
the properties to single family residences and return them to the neighborhood
as private owner-occupied homes. These houses will be purchased and
rehabbed with Public Improvement Funds rather than CDBG/HOME Funds in an
effort to create affordable housing without income restrictions.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:         $79,000, plus closing costs.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:         None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:          Authorize City Manager to enter into a purchase

   E. Windward Pointe Master Planning         City Manager
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The City and Pure Muskegon have the opportunity to
engage a world premiere water-front redevelopment master planning
organization to help guide the vision for the former Sappi site. DPZ CoDesign
(DPZ) is widely recognized as a leading expert in the latest/best practices for
planning, urban design, and sustainable mixed-use development in waterfront
communities. The cost to bring DPZ into Muskegon to conduct the full master
planning process is significant. DPZ will spend a number of days in Muskegon
gathering data, conducting public meetings and developing a sustainable 21st
Century plan for this site. As part of the Sappi Paper Mill’s closing, approximately
$500,000 was left to the City to help mitigate the effects of the plant’s closure.
Staff is asking that $75,000 of those funds be allocated to the master planning
process for Windward Pointe. The total cost of the process is expected to
exceed $250,000.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:         $75,000
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:         To be included in the 1st Quarter Budget
Reforecast.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:     Authorize the expenditure of $75,000 from the

SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Pursuant to Public Act 198 of 1974, as amended, KLO
Acquisitions, LLC, 700 Terrace Point, has requested the issuance of an Industrial
Facilities Tax (IFT) Exemption Certificate. The company will be locating its
corporate headquarters at this location, which will result in a real property

them for a tax abatement of 12 years under the City’s IFT policy.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:     The City will capture additional property taxes

TO:        Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners

FROM:      Frank Peterson, City Manager

DATE:      November 28, 2017

RE:        Scanning Services

SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

This past summer, the City engaged with Alcogare LLC to scan a number of documents for digital
archiving and storage. The scanning was completed on a per-sheet basis. Many of the documents
were old building plans and site plans – the total quantity was unknown at the onset of the process.
Upon completion, a total of 64,883 documents had been scanned at a cost of $18,072.65. Staff is
seeking formal approval to expense the $18,072.65.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

$18,072.65 in general fund expenses.

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:

None at this time. The expenses will be included in the budget reforecast.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize $18,072.65 in document scanning and archiving costs.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
                               AGENDA ITEM NO. _______________
                       CITY COMMISSION MEETING _________________________




TO:         Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners

FROM:       Frank Peterson, City Manager

DATE:       November 28, 2017

RE:         Sale of Parking Lot

SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

The City Commission previously authorized the City Manager to enter into an agreement to sell Pigeon
Hill Brewing a portion of the city-owned parking lots on Shoreline Drive to accommodate the
company’s expansion plans. The agreement originally called for Sub-Parcels 1 and 2 (collectively Parcel
A) to be sold to Pigeon Hill Brewing and Sub-Parcel 3 (now identified as Parcel B) to be retained by the
City of Muskegon. Upon completion of the formal property survey, it was determined that the size of
Parcel A was significantly less than originally understood by both parties. Parcel A is now insufficiently
sized to accommodate Pigeon Hill’s expansion. Parcel B is sufficiently sized to accommodate the
expansion. Accordingly, staff is asking the City Commission to amend the original purchase agreement
by replacing Parcel A with Parcel B, which would leave Parcel A in the city’s ownership and place Parcel
B in Pigeon Hill Brewing’s ownership.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

None

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:

None.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize City Manager to sign the purchase agreement and proceed with the sale of Parcel B.

Jay Paulson, Inspector
Based upon my recent inspection of the above property I determined that the structure meets the
definition of a Dangerous Building and/or Substandard Building as set forth in Section 10-61 of
the Muskegon City Code.

        If you disagree with the decision of the City Commission, you have the right to file a
petition for superintending control in the Circuit Court for the County of Muskegon within 21
days after the City Commission concurs.
