Memorandum
To:      Mayor and Commissioners

From: Frank Peterson

Re:      City Commission Meeting

Date: April 19, 2018

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

      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 an amendment to the zoning ordinance that is being recommended
                by the Planning Commission. Mike will speak directly to the need at the meeting,
                but the goal is to allow non-profit supportive housing as a special land use in
                certain building types while also allowing home-based businesses as a principal
                use in certain building types. This will only impact certain areas governed by the
                form based code.
            c. Approval of a capital purchase at the filtration plant. The item – tubidimeters –
                will replace outdated and obsolete equipment. The cost is $57,188.88, which will
                be included in the filtration plant budget.
            d. Approval of a resolution that will authorize staff to seek grants to replace the
                Ottawa Street Bridge. Local cost share is estimated at $300,000 plus engineering
                costs of approximately $300,000. The project would take place in 2021.

      2. Under public hearings, we will take comments on the 2018 CNS Action Plan.

      3. Under the New Business, we are asking the Commission to consider the following:
            a. Concurrence with the Housing Board of Appeals recommendation to demolish
                two structures.


Let me know if you have any questions/comments/concerns

   E. City Hall Carpet Purchase        Finance & Administrative Services
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The Finance & Administrative Services Division has been
charged with purchasing new carpet beginning with the offices on the first floor
of City Hall. The current carpet was installed at the time of a building renovation
in 1996. Over the course of the last five years we have noticed areas of extreme
wear and tear from rolling chairs, moving furniture, partition walls leaving empty
spots, and an inability to keep the carpet clean with our usual carpet cleaning
schedule. Approximately 10 months ago, Safebuilt bid out their renovation
project with consideration of the top 3 lowest bids, and contracted with the
local vendor who had the lowest, most reasonable bid for their project.
Understanding that the rest of City Hall still needed to be renovated, we were
given the opportunity to lock in the same bid rate for the rest of the City offices
provided we continue the project within a reasonable period of time.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:      $100,000 has been allocated in the public
improvement fund for (Phase 1) carpeting City Hall. This was approved with the
2017/18 Annual Budget. The current estimate is for $68,493.87 for the first floor
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:         None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize staff to purchase flooring and services
related to the purchase and installation of new carpet and flooring for the City
Hall offices from Lakeshore Carpet One of 2591 McCracken.

   F. Heritage Square Commons II – Construction Loan City Manager
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Gary Post has requested a construction loan in the
amount of $300,000 for construction at Heritage Square Commons II.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:        A $300,000 loan to be paid back in full.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:         None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
   H. Paving of Parking Lot, Jefferson at Western DPW-Engineering

construction engineering costs.

To:          Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
From:        Planning & Economic Development
RE:          Amendment to the Zoning Ordinance –


SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

Staff-initiated request to amend Section 2005.10 (Urban Residential Context Area) of
the Form Based Code to allow non-profit supportive housing as a special use permitted
in certain building types and to allow home-based businesses as a principal use
permitted in certain building types.


FINANCIAL IMPACT:

None

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:

None

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

To approve the zoning ordinance amendment.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

The Planning Commission voted 8-0 in favor of recommending approval of the
ordinance amendment.

                                     STAFF REPORT
                                       April 12, 2018


SUMMARY

 1. Please see the enclosed copy of Section 2005.10 (Urban Residential Context Area) of the Form Based
    Code. This section describes the allowed uses in certain building types within the Urban Residential
    Context Area. The proposed changes are highlighted in yellow.
 2. Staff is recommending to allow Non-profit supportive housing as a Special Use Permitted, on Sanford
    St and Peck St only, in the following building types: Live/Work, Duplex and Detached House.
 3. The Step Up organization requested a type of foster group home on Sanford St at the February 2018
    meeting. That request required a rezoning, which was denied, because it was in a single-family
    residential area. However, there are portions of Peck St and Sanford St that are more conducive to
    these type of uses. Particularly the areas zoned RM-1, Low Density Multi-Family Residential
    District (which allows this type of use under a SUP) and the small area that is zoned UR, Urban
    Residential. These zones already allow for multi-family uses. However, Step Up and similar
    organizations do not fit the definition of multi-family either because the tenants are not related.
 4. Staff has also noticed that home businesses were never approved as a principal use permitted in
    Urban Residential Districts. Home business should be allowed in these districts as well as long as
    they follow the rules of Section 401(Home Based Businesses) of the zoning ordinance.

An ordinance to amend Section 2005.10 of the Form Based Code to allow non-profit supportive housing as a
Special Land Use permitted in certain building types and to allow home-based businesses as a principal use
permitted in certain building types.

Date: April 24, 2018

To:      Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners

From: Department of Public Works - Filtration
RE:      Procurement of Turbidimeters


SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

Authorize staff to procure new tubidimeters from Hach to replace old and obsolete
tubidimeters, at the Water Filtration Plant.


FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Existing trubidimeters are old, obsolete, failing and replacement parts are not available.
These turbidimeters require controllers and replacing these turbidimeters in bulk would
be more economical to procure them with controllers as kits. Currently, there are 3
newer Hach controllers in stock and procuring the new Hach turbidimeter kits will allow
the existing controllers to be utilized. This is a more economical approach for
replacement of all turbidimeters at the cost of $57,118.88 (including shipping).


BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None.


STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff be authorized to procure turbidimeters from Hach at the Water Filtration Plant at a cost
of $57,118.88

RE:        Ottawa Bridge – Resolution of Support for Bridge Funding
           Application and Commitment for Matching Funds


SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

The Engineering Department would like to apply for critical bridge funding through the
Michigan Department of Transportation. These funds would be used to replace the
Ottawa bridge which was constructed in 1929 and is currently in very poor condition.

Construction is estimated at $1,374,000, and the city would be required to provide
matching funds of approximately $300,000 plus engineering costs. Funding is available
starting in 2021.

The MDOT application requires a resolution of support and commitment for the
matching funds.


FINANCIAL IMPACT:
$600,000 split over fiscal year 20/21 and 21/22

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None at this time.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the resolution of support for the critical bridge fund application and commit to
funding the required match and engineering costs.

        OTTAWA STREET OVER SOUTH BRANCH MUSKEGON RIVER (SN 7700)


   I.       INTRODUCTION

         The Ottawa Street Bridge over the South Branch of Muskegon River is the first
         priority for funding for the City of Muskegon. The City of Muskegon is requesting
         funding for a full bridge replacement project in the 2021 fiscal year. A brief
         description of the bridge follows:

               Constructed in 1929, the Ottawa Street Bridge is a single-span bridge with
                a length of 37.3 feet.
               The bridge has a clear width of 40 feet and an out-to-out of 53.8 feet.
               The superstructure consists of steel beams with a concrete deck.
               The abutments are concrete stub walls behind steel sheeting with a
                cantilever support for the sidewalks and rails.
               Six-foot sidewalks along each side.
               The bridge railing is a concrete balustrade.

         Ottawa Street is classified as an “Urban Local” on the National Functional
         Classification Map. The average daily traffic on is 400 (2017) vehicles per day.

   II.      GENERAL CONDITION OF THE BRIDGE

         The following major deficiencies were noted on a 2017 inspection of the Ottawa
         Street Bridge:

               The bridge is in very poor condition.
               Beams 3E & 4E have holes in the webs 4ft long or more, with heavy
                section loss beyond, these are considered failed. Heavy laminar pack rust
                on the adjacent beams.
               The beams under southbound have heavy rust scale with some section
                loss. Small holes found in Beam 4W.
               Water leaking through the deck with efflorescence throughout.
               Areas of deck bottom spalling with exposed rebar with section loss.
               Concrete diaphragms are crumbling with constant water seeping through.
               Heavy rust scale along abutment sheet piling.
               Bearings have laminar rust scale.
               Spalling along facia façade.
               Undermining of cantilevered sidewalks.
               Small hydraulic opening causes high velocity and scour of the sand
                bottom.

City of Muskegon
   III.    NARRATIVE SUPPORTING THE APPLICATION

           A. Contact Person

           The contact person for the City of Muskegon is:

               Ms. LeighAnn Mikesell
               Director of Municipal Services
               1350 E. Keating Street
               Muskegon, MI 49442
               Phone: (231) 724-6944

           B. Replacement Discussion

           The existing foundation type is unknown, therefore a complete replacement is
           the best option. The estimated replacement bridge length is 95 feet to span
           ordinary highwater width and allow for scour protection. Estimated out-out
           width is 42 feet, based on 12-foot lanes with 1.5 feet of gutter, 6-foot
           sidewalk, and 1.5 feet for a railing.

           C. Economic Importance

           The economic importance of the Ottawa Street Bridge includes the following:

                  Access to Richards Park along the north bank of the river.

                  Access to a public boat launch at the west side of the park.

                  Provides user and emergency access to the Lakeshore Trail. A 12-
                   mile non-motorized path traversing the city.

                  Muskegon Conservation District is planning a site development for
                   their new headquarters in a portion of the land north of the bridge.

           D. Existing Detour Impact

           There is no existing detour for this bridge.

           E. Impact of Closed Structure

           If the bridge was closed, motorists and emergency vehicles would have to
           take a 2.5-mile detour looping around the MDOT causeway over the river
           north and west of the bridge. There is only one-way traffic access from the
           causeway. Making the causeway access route two-way is unlikely due to
           geometric constraints and safety concerns.

           F. Structure Maintenance
