To: Kathie Grinzinger, City Manager November 19, 2012 From: Roger H. Rousse, DPW Director Subject: Capital Improvement Projects Status Report AIRPORT PROJECTS

1. Corporate Hangar Apron Reconstruction Project Final paving for the project took place on October 21, 2012, and the NO-TAM (notice to airman) that alerted pilots to the construction was removed on October 23, 2012. The apron and ramp are open for business, and full fuel sales have resumed. The tie downs were installed on October 29, 2012. The pavement marking for tie down parking will be completed in the spring. Lighting was installed about November 1, 2012. The majority of restoration has been completed, however, the haul roads remain wet, and final restoration will have to take place next year when they dry out. This will not affect airport operations.

This en-gine is over forty years old, and repair parts are no longer available. The project was awarded to Cummins Bridgeway, and the equipment has been ordered.

November 9, 2012 Ms. Kathie Grinzinger City of Mt. Pleasant 320 W. Broadway Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858 Ms. Grinzinger, In the early 1980’s the City of Mt. Pleasant joined with Central Michigan University and several local interested residents to found Middle Michigan Development Corporation (MMDC). MMDC is a client funded, private, not-for-profit Corporation which provides economic development services in Isabella and Clare Counties. MMDC is formally recognized by the State’s economic development assistance agencies such as Michigan Economic Development Corporation, the Saginaw Bay Economic Development Region and the Michigan State Housing Development Administration as Isabella County’s industrial and manufacturing site selection expert and the state’s partner in the two county area. Enclosed you will find the 2012 City of Mt. Pleasant IFT Report. This document contains information for the 2012-tax year for Industrial Facilities Tax Exemptions granted to City of Mt. Pleasant businesses by the City Commission. The report contains data from two sources: Tax I.D., assessments, and Certificate Numbers were gathered from City Assessing records; current job numbers and status was gathered through interviews with companies in July of this year. The projects contained in this report are all performing as promised and per our conversations with companies generally all are doing well. This is, in part, due to the savings granted them by the City Commission. MMDC works with manufacturers when they are in growth modes to assist with hiring staff, secure grants for training, and abate new taxes related to new personal and real property to enable the hiring of additional staff or accelerate growth. As you are familiar, the State Legislature is investigating the removal of all industrial personal property. This will greatly impact the use and frequency of the PA 198 IFT, which will be limited solely to real property, we will work with the City of Mt. Pleasant to ensure the needs of manufacturers are being met. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Sincerely,

Brian D. Anderson President

Mt. Pleasant City Commission City Hall 320 W. Broadway Mt. Pleasant, Michigan 48858

Re: Proposed RFP for Building Department Services

Dear Mayor Kilmer and City Commissioners:

This firm represents the Home Builders Association of Michigan ("HBAM"). It has come to the H BAM's attention that the City of Mt. Pleasant's contract with Isabella County for building department and building inspection services is about to expire. The HBAM has learned that Mt. Pleasant has or intends to issue a Request for Proposals ("RFP") to provide Mt. Pleasant's building department services. A private vendor may seek to provide those services.

The HBAM has no problem with the concept of building department privatization. However, the HBAM insists that when communities privatize, they adhere to the requirements of the Stille-DeRossett-Hale Single State Construction Code Act, MCL 125.1501 et seq. (the "Construction Code Act"). Section 22 of the Construction Code Act, MCL 125.1522(1 ), requires, among other things, that fees charged to be reasonable and that the funds received only be used for building department and construction board of appeals purposes. The Construction Code Act also requires that the building official be an employee of the municipality, even though it allows that individual to also be employed by other companies.

Similarly, the Headlee Amendment to Michigan's Constitution, 1963 Canst. Art. IX§ 31, requires that tax increases be put to a vote. Corresponding Michigan case law asserts that a fee increase that results in an unreasonable fee surplus can be treated as a disguised tax in violation of the Headlee Amendment.

November 6, 2012 Page 2

The HBAM has been monitoring numerous municipalities and counties as they move toward building department privatization to help ensure that the permit fees are not used to generate surplus revenue over and above the cost of operating a building department. Further, the HBAM and related trade groups are currently maintaining an action against the City of Troy, Michigan Association of Home Builders et a/ v City of Troy, Oakland County Circuit Court No. 1 0-115620-CZ (Honorable Shalina Kumar), that challenges a permit fee structure that arguably has resulted in substantial fee surpluses in a violation of the Construction Code Act and the Headlee Amendment. That lawsuit is pending.

The HBAM truly wishes Mt. Pleasant the best of luck in its endeavors. The HBAM believes that the building trades are a vital part of every local economy, and it remains vigilant to ensure that its members and the public do not overpay for building department services. As such, HBAM will continue to monitor these issues, and is happy to discuss its position on these issues if such a discussion would assist Mt. Pleasant during this process.

Thank you.

Very truly yours,

~ . McClelland

COMMISSION LETTER #141-12 MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 26, 2012

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION NOVEMBER 20, 2012

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING ON BROWNFIELD PLAN AMENDMENT FOR 1521-

1523 BROWNFIELD SITE (FORMALLY THE CHIEFTAN/BUDGET INN), AND CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE SAME

A public hearing has been scheduled for November 26, 2012, to receive feedback on a recommended amendment to the Brownfield Plan for Site #4 (1521-1523 South Mission Street) originally adopted by the Brownfield Authority and City Commission in 2006. Reimbursements were never activated under the earlier plan because the development did not increase the taxable value to the extent expected. With a new structure proposed to be built, the six-year old Brownfield recapture plan must be revised. Several communications compiled by Director of Community Services and Economic Development William Mrdeza are attached which provide all the background information about the amendment. The amended Brownfield Redevelopment Plan document is included as well. The document has been thoroughly reviewed by the City’s municipal attorney. In addition, City Treasurer Mary Ann Kornexl will describe the workings of the Redevelopment Plan to the Commission and public just prior to the opening of the public hearing. The amended plan has already been approved by the Brownfield Redevelopment Authority and is recommended to the City Commission. Without the assistance provided through a Brownfield instrument the clearance and redevelopment of contaminated or obsolete sites is cost prohibitive for the vast majority of investors. This is certainly true in this case. It is strongly recommended the Commission adopt the resolution as prepared which approves the amendment as presented. KSG/ap

Defined terms in this Amendment shall be as defined in the Brownfield Plan, except as provided in this Amendment. The Brownfield Plan is amended as follows:

A. The portion of paragraph 6.1 captioned “Eligible Property and Project Description” is supplemented by the addition of the following updated description of the Project:

Since the adoption of the Brownfield Plan, the Eligible Property has been divided into two parcels having tax identification numbers 17-000-09460-00 and 17-000-09464-00. Since the adoption of the Brownfield Plan, the Project Developer completed the demolition of the structures and removal of asbestos on the eligible property. The actual cost of asbestos removal was $235,800, which exceeded the previously-approved amount to be reimbursed by $85,800. Additional development on the Eligible Property has been delayed and to date the redevelopment of the Eligible Property has not been completed to the extent provided in the original plan. At this time, the Project Developer has proposed revised plans for the development of the Eligible Property, including construction of additional real property The portion of paragraph 6.1 captioned “Summary of Eligible Activities & Description of Costs to be Paid with Tax Increment Revenues” is amended as follows:

Eligible activities which shall be conducted as part of this Plan include (1) removal of asbestos material from the original structures; (2) demolition of the structures and all surface improvements, and pre-project development actions; (3) utility relocation; and (4) construction of an access road.

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION NOVEMBER 20, 2012

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: BIDS AND QUOTATIONS

A. 2013 City Employee Wellness Program

Since 2007, the City has partnered with Central Michigan Community Hospital (CMCH) to provide a wellness program for City employees. Promoting wellness and healthy behaviors has proved beneficial to the healthiness of the employees and has assisted in controlling health care cost increases. On October 30, 2012 the City accepted bids from four companies interested in providing wellness services. Susanne Gandy, Director of Human Resources, has reviewed the bids and has submitted a recommendation to the City Commission to continue our partnership with HealthSteps- McLaren Central Michigan (formally CMCH) to provide the wellness program for City employees. It is recommended the Commission approve the bid of HealthSteps-McLaren Central Michigan of Mt. Pleasant, MI in the amount of $20,470. Adequate funds exist in the health insurance budget for this service.

B. 2013 Water Treatment Plant Chemical Bid

Chemicals used in the water treatment process are bid on an annual basis. On November 13, Malcolm Fox, Water Treatment Plant Supervisor requested bids for chemicals for 2013. Attached is his memo outlining the lowest bid for each chemical. For your reference, the 2012 prices are listed in the parentheses. It is recommended the City Commission award the bids to the lowest bidder as listed on Mr. Fox’s attached memo. Adequate funds are budgeted in the Water Fund to cover the purchase of the listed chemicals. KSG/ap

TO: Kathie Grinzinger, City Manager Nancy Ridley, Assistant City Manager FROM: Susanne Gandy, PHR Director of Human Resources DATE: November 19, 2012 SUBJECT: Recommendation for the 2013 Employee Wellness Provider On October 30, 2012, we accepted four (4) bids from companies interested in becoming the provider of services for the City of Mt.

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER TRANSFER OF A PARCEL OF LAND AT THE MT. PLEASANT

CENTER TO THE SAGINAW CHIPPEWA INDIAN TRIBE In 2011, the City of Mt. Pleasant secured a large parcel of property from the State of Michigan often referred to as The Center property. Within the State’s “Center” acreage rested the original site of the Michigan Industrial Indian Boarding School. Michigan conveyed the footprints of the school’s historic buildings, with some contiguous land, to the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe of Michigan under the same 2010 legislative conveyance action. The parcel now owned by the Tribe has no usable vehicle access or parking availability. The City of Mt. Pleasant and the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe have had several conversations about the configuration of the Tribe’s site. The two entities agreed, prior to the final passage of the legislation that sold the property to the local jurisdictions, that the City would execute a deed to transfer additional property to the Tribe. Attached is a Quit Claim Deed which redraws the boundaries of the land on the eastern edge of the “Center” property, enlarging and squaring off the Tribe’s parcel. The Deed includes the revised survey description. Also included is a diagram providing a visual as to how the ownership lines would be shifted. It is important to note that the boundary today actually infringes on two structures owned by the City. The Deed provides easements to the City for those buildings until such time as they are demolished. It is recommended the City Commission approve the conveyance as included and authorize the Mayor and Clerk to execute the document. KSG/ap

COMMISSION LETTER #144-12 MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 26, 2012

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION NOVEMBER 20, 2012

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR THE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT

FINANCE AUTHORITY (LDFA) The Center for Applied Research and Technology (The CART), formerly known as University Park, is a state recognized Smart Zone and located primarily within Central Michigan University’s southernmost sector. The City of Mt. Pleasant established a tax increment finance district and created a Local Development Finance Authority, as proscribed by State Law, to oversee the tax capture revenues and expenditures of the Park. The LDFA, whose members are appointed by the City Commission, is responsible for building its budget which is ultimately accepted by the City Commission during its own annual operating budget approval process. The LDFA has approved changes to its 2012 operating budget so that necessary work on projects can begin before the end of the year. Because the LDFA budget is considered a Component Unit of the City’s annual operating budget, the City Commission must endorse or take action on the amendment. Attached is a communication from Brian Anderson, Executive Director of Middle Michigan Development Corporation (MMDC). MMDC has been hired by the City’s LDFA to manage the operations of the Park. As Mr. Anderson explains the LDFA has approved a budget amendment of $31,000. The amended budget will support three changes. First, actual mowing expenses at the Park were higher than anticipated. Second, the brick monuments throughout the Park on which signage is attached have deteriorated drastically. Inspection has revealed that, if left unrepaired through another snow season, the brick will crumble and repair costs will escalate. Repair of the signage will also signal a new designation of the facility to Smart Zone Mt. Pleasant. The new name falls more in line with the State’s Pure Michigan marketing campaign and will provide an improved image to site selectors. Finally, the budget amendment will allow for repairs to be made to repair non-working street lights along the pathways in the Park. Several lights have been damaged and must be replaced.

Funds exist in the LDFA’s fund balance to cover the cost of the projects. It is recommended the Commission approve the budget amendment as presented. KSG/ap

November 19, 2012 Mt. Pleasant City Commission City of Mt. Pleasant 320 W. Broadway Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858 Members of the Commission, The Mt. Pleasant LDFA Board has approved a budget amendment for the 2012 Fiscal Year for two projects and one cost adjustment. The first project is a $16,000 budget amendment to improve the signage in the park. The current signs have been in place since the park was renamed “The Center for Applied Research and Technology.” The signs themselves have suffered from weatherization over the years and are in desperate need of refreshing. Additionally, the signs will be re-imagined in a way to give added street presence and connectivity to the “Pure Michigan” brand and Central Michigan University, more clearly identifying the park as one of a select number of Michigan SmartZones. The total price includes repairing the sign monuments, new signs supplied by Sign Fab in Mt. Pleasant, electrical work to light the signs, and the removal of the existing landscaping. The second project is a $10,000 budget amendment to repair the lighting along the pathways on the LDFA grounds. This year was particularly bad for damage to the lights and the board has committed the funds to replace and repair the lighting. The Board directed MMDC to first explore any opportunities for LED Lighting conversion of these lights for potential cost savings down the road. An additional $5,000 was designated to pay for budget overruns for mowing expenses as the previous year's mowing schedule caused significant damage to the contractor's machinery, the increased mowing schedule caused higher than anticipated charges. The funding for these three budget amendments will come from previous years' TIFA contributions assigned for Maintenance. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Sincerely,

Brian D. Anderson President

COMMISSION LETTER #145-12 MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 26, 2012

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION NOVEMBER 20, 2012

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF SECOND YEAR CONTRACT WITH THE

SPICER GROUP FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT OF THE MT. PLEASANT CENTER PROPERTY

In November of 2011, the City Commission selected the team of Spicer Group, AKT Peerless and CBRE to fulfill the role of project manager for the redevelopment of the Mt. Pleasant Center property. Shortly thereafter the project team and city staff negotiated terms for the first year of what was assumed to be a multi-year agreement with specific tasks and estimated costs to move the Center redevelopment through the first 12 months. A project status report was provided to the Commission in September. For informational purposes, a summary of the billings received as of October 1 is attached. The summary shows that some of the work originally anticipated in 2012 did not take place and the amount spent in 2012 will be well below the approved amount of $164,366. Some of that work has been deferred to the 2013 contract. Because the first contract expires on December 31, 2012, it was necessary to negotiate a new scope of work and determine an estimated cost for accomplishments expected of the project team in 2013. Attached is a letter from Spicer Group detailing the projected scope of work to cover the upcoming project year with an estimated “not to exceed” cost of $93,343. The profile does not contain costs for the assistance or management of any demolition activity. Because grants are still being sought and the demolition may be managed and bid in alternative ways, this function will be handled by a separate agreement. The City has been highly pleased with work conducted by Spicer, AKT and CBRE to date. The team has remained flexible, highly responsive, creative and extremely organized adding to the sense of security the community can adopt in executing a second year agreement. It is recommended the City Commission approve the Letter of Agreement as drafted and authorize the Mayor to sign the document. KSG/ap

COMMISSION LETTER #147-12 MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 26, 2012

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION NOVEMBER 20, 2012

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER SETTING THE FIRST MEETING OF 2013 FOR MONDAY,

JANUARY 14, 2013 AT 7:00 PM In years past, the City Charter required the first City Commission meeting of the year be held at 8:00 pm on the first Monday in January of each year, or the first day thereafter that is not a holiday. The recent passing of the charter amendment has given the Commission the ability to hold the first meeting anytime in January. In the past, regular meetings have been held on the second and fourth Mondays of the month at 7:00 pm. Provided the Commission wants to keep the same schedule, it is recommended the City Commission set the first City Commission meeting of 2013 for Monday, January 14, 2013 at 7:00 pm. KSG/ap
