      D. Sale of Buildable Vacant Lot at 363 Merrill Avenue.      PLANNING &
         ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To approve the sale of a vacant buildable lot at 363
Merrill Avenue (Parcel #24-205-389-0002-00) to Carlos Martinez, 369 Merrill
Avenue, Muskegon, MI. The lot is 66 X 132 ft. and is being offered to Carlos
Martinez for $1 ,000 plus the fee to register the deed. Carlos Martinez will be
combining this property with his existing property, which would be considered
unbuildable should his home be destroyed over 50%. His property is 33 x 132 ft.
He would like to fence the property and add a slider with a deck. The True Cash
Value (TCV) for the property listed in the Assessor's office is $10,000, and our
price is set at $7,500 which is 75% of that amount. The City has owned the
property since 1992 and there have been no inquiries for potential construction.
The Land Reutilization Committee is recommending approval of the sale at
lesser price due to the size of Carlos Martinez's current property, and the True
Cash Value of this property seemed a little higher than other areas for the same
size property. The Land Reutilization Committee looked at the values of other
properties in the City, there has been a lot of new construction in the areas of
Jackson Hill and Marquette neighborhoods and the values of the same size
property or larger had a True Cash Value less than the properties in Nelson
Neighborhood. Staff also sent a letter to the other adjacent property owner
offering to sell half of the property to them, no interest was shown.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The sale of this lot to the adjacent property owner will
generate additional tax revenue for the City and will place the property back
on the City's tax rolls thus relieving the City of continued maintenance costs.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the resolution and to authorize both the
Mayor and the Clerk to sign the resolution and deed.
      E. Approval of 2005 -     2006 Subrecipient and Community Housing
         Development Organization (CHDO) Agreements.            COMMUNITY &

SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To direct the Mayor and City Clerk to sign all of the
2005-2006 approved agreements for the City's subrecipients and CHDO's. The
City Commission approved the funding for each of the nonprofits last spring
during the City's Consolidated Planning process.

records.

HOME programs.

third option calls for a minority concrete contractor (Martin J Concrete) who

      C. Amendment to Notice of Intent Resolution. FINANCE
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Previously the City Commission approved a notice of
intent resolution for up to $7.5 million bonds to be used for a new central fire
station and certain recreation projects. Staff is still refining the size and details of
this bond issue, however, it is clear that one of the main components originally
contemplated (second ice sheet) is not financially feasible. The purpose of this
amendment is to add language to the notice of intent to provide flexibility to
allow proceeds from this bond issue to also be used for water system
improvements, in the event this becomes necessary. It appears that final
filtration plan improvement project costs will be higher than originally
anticipated. If. cash generated from the new water rates and summer usage will
be adequate to cover the additional filtration plant project costs, it will not be
necessary to borrow for this purpose. Any amounts that are borrowed for water
improvements would, of course, be repaid from the water fund.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The immediate cost associated with this action is the cost of
re-publication in the Chronicle.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None at this time. The cost of the newspaper
publication can be covered within the current budget. Once bonds are sold,
debt service will be budgeted over the life of the bonds (20 years).
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the resolution.
Motion by Vice Mayor Larson, second by Commissioner Gawron to approve the
amendment to the Notice of Intent Resolution.

      D. Extension of Contract to Market Seaway Industrial Park. PLANNING &
         ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
SUMMARY OF REQUEST: In 2004 C & A Commercial Real Estate was selected as
the company to market Seaway Industrial Park properties, as well as one
property located on Getty Street. A nine-month real estate agreement was
originally signed by the Mayor with a six-month extension signed by the City
Manager in December 2004. Staff feels that Commission should review the
performance of C & A Commercial Real Estate in order to determine if there
should be another extension of the agreement for a six-month time period.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The continued timely sale and development of these
properties will bring more jobs to Muskegon in the near future, thus additional
income tax being generated.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED: None.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To approve the resolution and authorize the Mayor
and Clerk to sign the said resolution.
Motion by Commissioner Gawron, second by Commissioner Spataro to approve
the resolution extending the contract to market Seaway Industrial Park for six
months.

RE:                   Sale of Buildable Vacant Lot at 363 Merrill Ave.


SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
To approve the sale of a vacant buildable lot at 363 Merrill Avenue (Parcel #24-205-389-
0002-00) to Carlos Martinez, 369 Merrill Avenue, Muskegon, MI. The lot is 66 x 132ft. and
is being offered to Carlos Martinez for $1,000 plus the fee to register the deed. Carlos
Martinez will be combining this property with his existing property, which would be
considered unbuildable should his home be destroyed over 50%. His property is 33 x 132 ft.
He would like to fence the property and add a slider with a deck. The True Cash Value
(TCV) for the property listed in the Assessor's office is $10,000, and our price is set at
$7,500 which is 75% of that amount. The City has owned the property since 1992 and there
have been no inquiries for potential construction. The Land Reutilization Committee is
recommending approval of the sale at a lesser price due to the size of Carlos Martinez's
current property, and the True Cash Value of this property seemed a little higher than other
areas for the same size property. The Land Reutilization Committee looked at the values of
other properties in the City, there had been a lot of new construction in the areas of Jackson
Hill and Marquette neighborhoods and the values of the same size piece of property or
larger had a True Cash Value less than the properties in Nelson Neighborhood. Staff also
sent a letter to the other adjacent property owner offering to sell half of the property to them,
no interest was shown.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The sale of this lot to the adjacent property owner will generate additional tax revenue for the
City and will place the property back on the City's tax rolls thus relieving the City of
continued maintenance costs.

BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To approve the attached resolution and to authorize both the Mayor and the Clerk to sign
said resolution and deed.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Land Reutilization Committee recommends approval of the sale with the condition that
the property be combined with the owner's original parcel.

OLD BUSINESS

363 Merrill Ave. -Request to sell the buildable lot (66 x 132) at 363 Merrill for $1,000. An
offer was made to split this lot between the two adjacent property owners. The City has owned
this property since 1992. Carlos Martinez owns and lives in the adjacent property at 369 Merrill.
He would like to purchase the lot at 363 Merrill and has offered $1,000 for it. His property is 33 x
132 which is considered an unbuildable lot. He would like to purchase the City lot to combine
with his existing home and fence it off so his children will have a safe place to play. He would
also like to put in a sliding door on the side of the home facing the lot. In order to accomplish
this, the building code requires that there be steps for it. He would like to build a deck for the
slider to go out to, but he doesn't have enough property on the side of his home to meet the side
setback requirements. He does have a garage on his property. At this time, he is not looking to
expand his home. Should his home be destroyed over 50%, he would not be able to rebuild on the
lot he has. He would like to remain in the neighborhood. Rhonda Rogers owns the property on
the other side of the City lot, with an address of 1337 6'h St. Staff sent Ms. Rogers a letter
offering to sell her part of the property and informing her that the other adjacent property owner
was interested in purchasing the property. She has shown no interest in any part of the property.
Staff recommends approval of the request to sell the entire lot to Mr. Martinez. It would need to
go before the City Commission for final approval. Any past due water bills or property taxes
would have to be paid prior to the sale being completed. The purchaser would pay for registering
the deed.

A motion to recommend approval to the City Commission of the request to sell the vacant lot at
363 Merrill to Carlos Martinez for $1,000 plus the cost of registering the deed, with the condition
that the property be combined with his existing property, was made by R. Hill, supported by J.
Martin, Jr. and unanimously approved.
