Re:     Budgeted Vehicle Replacement



    The Equipment Division has scheduled the replacement of the three 1997 Taurus
sedans for 2005. The Detective Bureau uses these vehicles for investigative work.
We initially scheduled these vehicles for replacement in 2004 but due to their
relatively low maintenance costs, we extended their life cycle for one year.

   I have requested prices from area dealers as well as the statewide purchasing
contract. Attached is a summmy of the bids.

Hearing; Case 2005-08: Request to rezone the properties located at 2111 and 2123
McCracken Street and also 2117 and 2125 Lakeshore Drive from R-1 Single Family
Residential to RM-1 Low Density Multiple-Family Residential district, by Greg Hodge
(Hodge Development Services, LLC).

                                     BACKGROUND
Applicant:     Hodge Development, Greg Hodge, 2170 Eagle Blvd. Holland, MI

Property Address/Location:        2111 & 2123 McCracken Street and 2117 & 2125 Lakeshore Drive

Present Land Use:       2125 Lakeshore Drive - single-family; McCracken and 2117 Lakeshore
                        Drive, vacant

Current Zoning:           R-1, Single Family Residential

Proposed Zoning:          RM-1, Low Density Multiple Family Residential


STAFF OBSERVATIONS
1. The applicant withdrew the original request for rezoning of the property to RM-1 at the
   October 14, 2004, Planning Commission meeting. (The associated Preliminary PUD review
   was subsequently tabled at that same meeting.) The applicant resubmitted an identical request
   at the December 16, 2004 meeting, which was recommended for denial to City Commission.
   City Commission denied the request at their January 25, 2005 meeting.
2. The only change to the rezoning request is that all of the property located at 2137 McCracken
   has been excluded, as well as the Southerly 55 feet of2123 McCracken.
3. Since the preliminary site plan submitted with this rezoning request show that the proposed
   development doesn't meet the front or rear setback requirements and no commercial element
   is included in the request, a PUD application would need to be resubmitted by the applicant
   and approved by the Planning Commission.
4. The subject property is located at the southwest comer of Lakeshore Drive and McCracken
   Street. The parcels along McCracken Street are renmants of a former railroad right-of-way
   and the two along Lakeshore Avenue are platted lots. The entire project site is zoned R-1, as
   are all properties on the block. Across Lakeshore Avenue, zoning of properties within the
   notification area include R-1 and B-4. Across McCracken Street, the properties facing
   Lakeshore are zoned RM-1 and those facing Han'ison A venue are zoned R-1. Zoning of
   properties to the south, across Harrison, is R-1. The neighborhood is predominantly single


                                                                                               3
City of Muskegon Planning Commission - 2/10/05
    family residential other than along Lakeshore Avenue, where there is a mix of single and multi
    family uses, commercial uses and vacant land.
5. The Future Land Use Map shows the subject property to be "Single & Two-Family
   Residential." It is adjacent to the "Lakeside Pedestrian Scale Mixed-Use Area" across
   Lakeshore Drive, which promotes "pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use development and
   redevelopment."
6. The Master Land Use Plan states:
   + It is the goal of the Master Plan to retain the McGraft Park Residential Sub-Area as single
      family in orientation. As such, the Master Plan supports ongoing efforts towards the
      rehabilitation of mature housing stock for continuing single family use and, where
      feasible, the construction of new single family detached homes. Moreover, those features
      of the sub-area considered highly beneficial to the area's residential character, aesthetic
      quality and life style should be fully protected and, where necessary, enhanced. These
      include McGraft Park, Seyferth Playfield, and tributaries ofRuddiman Lagoon.

     +   While fostering the above goal, it is aclmowledged that a limited range of commercial and
         office activities are appropriate to select segments of Lakeshore Drive and Sherman
         Boulevard. Typically, non-residential uses should be oriented to the needs of the local
         populace. Such development should be highly controlled pursuant to type, location, and
         design in order to prevent negative impacts of the sub-area's residential focus.
7. The Master Plan recommends for this sub-area:
   +         Maintain the character of the sub-area as single family residential. Limited
      multiple-family may be permitted provided:
      o Residential density (units per acre) does not exceed underlying single family
         standards by more than 50%;
      o Sufficient onsite parking exists to accommodate all units;
      o The character of the multiple family complex (building and site) must be consistent
         with that of surrounding residential development;
      o All units should have on-site access to at least (I) stall of an enclosed garage; and
      o All projects should be subject to site plan review by the Planning Commission.
8. Though the subject property is not located within it, it is adjacent to the Lakeside area. The
   City of Muskegon Waterfront Redevelopment Sub-Plan 1999 recognizes the residential
   character of the Lakeside area and recommends mostly residential with some mixed-use
   commercial/office and residential development that utilizes and respects local vernacular
   styles for the design of new buildings and preserves views of the lake.
9. The RM-1 district permits multiple family dwellings, up to 16 dwelling units per acre; current
   R-1 zoning permits single family detached dwellings, up to seven (7) dwelling units per acre.
   The PUD option allows for mixed land uses that are compatible with each other. The
   maximum number of units permitted on the site are approximately: R-1, 3 dwelling units; R-
   T, 4 dwelling units; RM-1, 8 dwelling units.
10. Since this is strictly a rezoning request, the site plan wasn't routed to Fire, Police or Public
    Works Departments.

These districts are designed to be composed of low density residential development. The
regulations are intended to stabilize, protect, and encourage the residential character of the district
and prohibit activities not compatible with a residential neighborhood. Development is limited to
single family dwellings and such other uses as schools, parks, churches, and certain public
facilities which serve residents of the district. It is the intent of these districts to recognize that the
City of Muskegon has been developed and platted with some lots that are smaller than those found
in recently urbanized communities, and the standards in Section 2100 reflect residential
development standards that the citizens of Muskegon find to be compatible.

    SECTION 400: PRINCIPAL USES PERMITTED

     SECTION 402: [RESERVED] [amended8/01]

    SECTION 403: PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT OPTION [amended 12/97]
Planned unit developments (PUDs) may be allowed by the Planning Commission under the
procedural guidelines of Section 2101. The intent of Planned Unit Developments in the single
family residential district is to allow for flexibility in the design of housing developments,

RECOMMENDATION
The intent of the RM-1 zone district is to provide sites for multiple family dwellings that will
generally serve as zones of transition between the nonresidential districts and lower density one and
two family residential districts. Some of the primary differences between the R-1 and RM-1 zone
districts are: principal uses permitted in the RM-1 zone are more intensive than those in the R-1 zone;
greater allowable density; and greater flexibility with the PUD option in the RM-1 zone. Based upon
the goals and recommendations ofthe Master Plan, however, the requested RM-1 zone is a more
intense zone district than expected for the area, though there is previously zoned RM-1 property
directly across McCracken Street.

Further, the Master Plan recommendation that the density not exceed 50% of the allowable R-1
density is not satisfied by the RM-1 zone. Recommended density should not exceed 10.5 dwelling
units per buildable acre; RM-1 zoning permits 16.

By comparison, the RT Two Family Residential District's Principal Uses Permitted are comparable to
the R-1 zone and it allows 10 dwelling units per buildable acre, while the PUD option still allows
mixed uses. Though staff finds the RT zone more appropriate for the site per the 1997 Master Plan
and the 1999 Waterfront Redevelopment Sub-Plan, development in the area has not necessarily
mirrored the expectations at the times when those plans were adopted.

Based upon the above analysis, staff is recommending denial of the request to rezone the subject
property from R-1 to RM-1 because the request does not conform to the goals and recommendations
of the 1997 Master Plan, finding that the RT zone is more appropriate. Should the Planning
Commission fmd that the goals and recommendations of the current plans are not reflective of current
conditions and expected trends, and choose to recommend the City Commission rezone the property,
appropriate changes in the Master Plan should be made at or before the next major Master Plan
update.

DELffiERATION
Criteria-based questions typically asked during a rezoning include:

1. What, if any, identifiable conditions related to the petition have changed which justify the
   petitioned change in zoning.

2. What are the precedents and the possible effects of precedent that might result from the
   approval or denial of the petition?

3. What is the impact of the amendment on the ability of the city to provide adequate public
   services and facilities and/or programs that might reasonably be required in the future if the
   petition is approved?

4. Does the petitioned zoning change adversely affect the environmental conditions or value of the
   surrounding property?



                                                                                                      13
5. Does the petitioned zoning change generally comply with the adopted Future Land Use Plan of
   the City?

6. Are there any significant negative environmental impacts which would reasonably occur if the
   petitioned zoning change and resulting allowed structures were built such as:

               a.      Surface water drainage problems
               b.      Waste water disposal problems
               c.      Adverse effect on surface or subsurface water quality
               d.      The loss of valuable natural resources such as forest, wetland, historic
                       sites, or wildlife areas.

7. Is the proposed zoning change a "Spot Zone"?

               a.      Is the parcel small in size relative to its surroundings?
               b.      Would the zouing change allow uses that are inconsistent with those allowed
                       in the vicinity?
               c.      Would the zoning change confer a benefit to the property owner that is not
                       generally available to other properties in the area?
               d.      A spot zone is appropriate if it complies with the Master Plan.

DETERMINATION
The following motion is offered for consideration:

I move that the request to rezone the properties located 2117& 2125 Lakeshore Drive and 2111
McCracken & the Northerly 29 feet of2123 McCracken Street, from R-1 Single Family Residential to
RM -1 Low Density Multiple-Family Residential district, as described in the public notice, be
recommended for (approval/denial) to the City Commission pursuant to the City of Muskegon
Zoning Ordinance, and the detenuination of (compliance/lack of compliance) with the intent of the
City Master Land Use Plan and zoning district intent.

                                      RESOLUTION NO.         2005-19(b)


A resolution approving the application for an Obsolete Property Rehabilitation Exemption Certificate by Van
Slooten Tree Farms, Inc.


The City Commission of the City of Muskegon hereby RESOLVES:

Recitals


A.      The City Commission has received an Application for an Obsolete Property Rehabilitation Exemption
        Certificate from VanSlooten Tree Farms, Inc., to apply to the improvements located in an Obsolete
        Property Rehabilitation District established by previous resolution.

B.      The City of Muskegon is a qualified local governmental unit as determined by STC Bulletin No.9 of
        2000, dated July 12, 2000.

C.      An Obsolete Property Rehabilitation District in which the application property is located was
        established after hearing on February 22, 2005, being the same date that the district was
        established.

D.      The taxable value of the property proposed to be exempt, plus the aggregate taxable value of
        properties already exempted under PA 146 of 2000 and under PA 198 of 1974, does not exceed five
        percent (5%) of the total taxable value of the City of Muskegon.

E.     In the event it is determined that the said taxable values do exceed five percent (5%), the City
       Commission determines further that the said excedence will not have the effect of substantially
       impeding the operation of the City of Muskegon or impairing the financial soundness of any affected
       taxing units.

F.     This resolution of approval is considered by the City Commission on February 22, 2005, after a public
       hearing as provided in Section 4(2) of PA 146 of 2000. The hearing was held on this date.

G.     The applicant, Van S/ooten Tree Farms, Inc., is not delinquent any taxes related to the facility.

H.     The exemption to be granted by this resolution is for eleven (11) years.

I.     The City Commission finds that the property for which the Obsolete Property Rehabilitation
       Exemption Certificate is sought is obsolete property within the meaning of Section 2(h) of Public Act
        146 of 2000 in that the property, which is commercial, is functionally obsolete. The City has received
       from the applicant all the items required by Section 9 of the application form, being the general
       description of the obsolete facility, a general description of the proposed use, a description of the
       general nature and extent of the rehabilitation to be undertaken, a descriptive list of fixed building
       equipment that will be part of the rehabilitated facility, a time schedule for undertaking and complete
       the rehabilitation, and statement of the economic advantages expected from the exemption.

J.     Commencement of the rehabilitation has not occurred before the establishment of the district.
K.       The application relates to a rehabilitation program that when completed will constitute a rehabilitated
         within the meaning of PA 146 of 2000 and will be situated within the Obsolete Property Rehabilitation
         District established by the City under PA 146 of 2000.

L.       Completion of the rehabilitated facility is calculated to and will, at the time of the issuance of the
         Certificate, have the reasonable likelihood to increase commercial activity and create employment; it
         will revitalize an urban area. The rehabilitation will include improvements aggregating more than ten
         percent (10%) of the true cash value of the property at the commencement of the rehabilitation.

M.       The City Commission determines that the applicant shall have twelve (12) months to complete the
         rehabilitation. It shall be completed by February 22, 2006, or one year after the Certificate is issued,
         whichever occurs later.

N.      That notice pursuant to statute has been timely given to the applicant, the assessor for the City of
        Muskegon, representatives of the affected taxing units and the general public.

         NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COMMISSION RESOLVES:

1.      Based upon the statements set forth in, and incorporating the recitals to this resolution, the City
        Commission hereby approves the application filed by VanSlooten Tree Farms, Inc., for an Obsolete
        Property Rehabilitation Exemption Certificate, to be effective for a period of eleven (11) years;

2.      BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this resolution of approval relates to the property set forth in
        Attachment A, the legal description containing the facilities to be improved;

3.      BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that, as further condition of this approval, the applicant shall comply
        with the representations and conditions set forth in the recitals above and in the application material
        submitted to the City.

This resolution passed.

                                   (Keep width at 20 feet)

                    Location and Description of Properties to be Assessed:
                          See Exhibit A attached to this resolution


RECITALS:

1.   A hearing has been held on February 22, 2005 at 5:30 o'clock p.m. at the City
     Commission Chambers. Notice was given by mail and publication as required by
     law.

2.   That estimates of costs of the project, a feasibility report and valuation and benefit
     information are on file with the City and have been reviewed for this hearing.

3.   At the hearing held February 22,2005, there were 43.25% objections by the owners of
     the property in the district registered at the hearing either in writing received before or at
     the hearing or by owners or agents present at the hearing, and the Commission has
     considered the advisability of proceeding with the project.

FINDINGS:

1.   The City Commission has examined the estimates of cost to construct the project
     including all assessable expenses and determines them to be reasonable.

2.   The City Commission has considered the value of the property to be assessed and the
     value of the benefit to be received by each property proposed to be assessed in the district
     after the improvements have been made. The City Commission determines that the
     assessments of costs of the City project will enhance the value of the properties to be
     assessed in an amount at least equivalent to the assessment and that the improvement
     thereby constitutes a benefit to the property.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:

1.   The City Commission hereby declares a special assessment district to include the
     property set forth in Exhibit A attached to this resolution.

2.   The City Commission determines to proceed with the improvements as set forth in the
     feasibility study and estimates of costs, and directs the City Engineer to proceed with
     project design, preparation of specifications and the bidding process. If appropriate and
     if bonds are to be sold for the purposes of financing the improvements, the Finance
     Department shall prepare plans for financing including submission of application to the
       Michigan Department of Treasury and the beginning of bond proceedings.
3.     The City Commission hereby appoints a Board of Assessors consisting of City
       Commissioners Gawron and Davis and the City Assessor who are hereby directed to
       prepare an assessment roll. Assessments shall be made upon front foot basis.

4.     Based on the City's Special Assessment policy and preliminary estimates it is expected
       that approximately 20.74% of the cost ofthe street improvement will be paid by special
       assessments.

5.     Upon submission of the special assessment roll, the City staff is hereby directed to notify
       all owners and persons interested in properties to be assessed of the hearing at which the
       City Commission will consider confirmation of the special assessment roll.

The proposed "Milling & resurfacing" Work on Fair between Torrent & Addison was a city
initiated and part of the adopted CIP project list. This project was initially selected for only a
milling & resurfacing to improve the surface conditions and to prolong it"s life-cycle. However,
when design started, we felt that widening the street by 3' (on the north side) would enhance the
street's appearance as well as make it more suitable to vehicular and brought it closer to be in
compliance with established standards. The existing width of pavement, which was constructed
back in 1949, is 20' from back of curb to back of curb, the new pavement will be, if the district is
created, 23' back of curb to back of curb giving the vehicles traffic closer to 10' of travel lane
instead of the 9' they presently have.

The PC! for this section of roadway makes the proposed work of, Milling & resurfacing, an ideal
method of preserving the roadway. The proposed work consists of;

The proposed improvements consist of the following;

1. Removal of the entire surface and the nmtherly curb & gutter section along with some on the
   southerly section to improve drainage.
2. minor water & sewer work
3. construct a new curb and gutter that is 3' north of the existing northerly curbs
4. Grade existing sub-base and the placement of two (2) 1.5" of asphalt courses.

The proposed improvements will address the at least two of the established goals;

•   Improve the City's infrastructure
•   Enhance the appearance of that area.

A memorandum ti·om the Assessor's office, which addresses appraisal and benefits to abutting
properties, is attached.

The preliminary cost estimate for the work associated with paving is approximately $100,000
with the length of the project being approximately 1000 lineal feet or 1391.08 of assessable
footage. This translates into an estimated improvement cost of $72 per assessable foot. The
assessment figure will be at a cost not to exceed $14.91 per assessable foot. This figure is
prorated due to the fact that the proposed width of the street is only 23' rather than the standard
27' for which the assessment would be @ $17.50 according to the 2005 Special Assessment for
this type of improvement.

   James J. Derezinski
                              Mr. Al-Shatel:
             District4        In accordance with your request, I have examined the proposed special assessment
       Marvin R. Engle        district entailing the milt and resurface of Fair Avenue between Torrent Street and
              District S      Addison Street. The purpose of this analysis is to document the reasonableness of this
                              special assessment district by identifying and quantifying any accrued benefits. It is
    Louis A. McMurray
              District9       subject to the normal governmental restrictions of escheat, taxation, police power and
                              eminent domain. The effective date is February 9, 2005.
        Robert Scolnik
            District 11       In conclusion, it is my opinion that the special assessment amounts justly and
                              reasonably represents the accrued benefits to the properties encompassed by this
       I. John Snider II
              District 3
                              project. The amounts reflect the sum of the immediate estimated value enhancement
                              and the intrinsic value that will accrue from an overall increase in property values due
      Nancy A. Waters         to an improved quality of life created by the proposed project. As previously
             District 6
                              presented, the proposed special assessment district encompasses primarily residential
Stephen R. Wisniewski         properties. The front foot rate of$17.50 for the mill and resurface of the above
             District 1       mentioned project area appears reasonable in light of an analysis that indicates a
                              possible enhancement of $19.07. The conclusions are based upon the data presented
                              within this limited analysis in restricted format, and on supporting information in my
                              files.


                              Sincerely,

The City of Muskegon is asking for your support for improvement of the street adjoining your
property located at PROPERTY ADDRESS.

The City of Muskegon believes that by making the proposed street improvements you will
have less road noise, dust, and wear and tear on your vehicle. In addition, street
improvements provide easier access for delivery of services such as snow plowing, mail
delivery, and bus service.

Called a special assessment district, the largest percentage of the proposed street
improvement will be paid for by the City of Muskegon (via local funds and or grants); however,
it will be necessary for you to cover a share of the cost (which you can spread over a period of
ten years) based on the amount of property you own bordering the street. A description of the
project, including the associated cost to you and the City, is located in the documents
attached to this letter.

While the City of Muskegon believes that the proposed improvements will result in a safer and
cleaner street while adding curb appeal to your property, you do have the right to ask further
questions or protest participation in this particular project. Please carefully review the
enclosed materials and call the City's Engineering Department at 724-6707 if you require
more information.

A public hearing is also scheduled for this project on FEBRUARY 22, 2005. If you attend this
public hearing you will be given an opportunity to make comments on the proposed special
assessment district to the commission.

Also located in this packet of materials is a Special Assessment Hearing Response Card. If
mailed back to the City of Muskegon City Clerk's Office before the scheduled public hearing
your vote will be added to the tabulation of votes during the public hearing. If you do not send
in this form your vote counts as "in favor" of the project.

Thank you for your participation in improving the quality of life in the Muskegon community.

Parcel Number 24-205-XXX-XXXX-XX: at PROPERTY ADDRESS & STREET

                  NOTICE OF HEARING ON SPECIAL ASSESSMENT

Dear Property Owner:

The Muskegon City Commission is considering whether or not to create a special
assessment district which would assess your property for the following paving project:

                   FAIR AVE., TORRENT ST. TO ADDISON ST.
The proposed special assessment district will be located as follows:

             All parcels abutting Fair Ave. from Torrent St. to Addison St.
It is proposed that a portion of the above improvement will be paid by special
assessment against properties in the aforementioned district. Following are conditions
of the proposed special assessment which are important to you.

                                     Public Hearings

An initial public hearing to consider the creation of a special assessment district will be
held at the City of Muskegon City Commission Chambers on FEBRUARY 22, 2005 at
5:30P.M. You are encouraged to appear at this hearing, either in person, by agent or
in writing to express your opinion, approval, or objection concerning the proposed
special assessment. We are enclosing a Hearing Response Card for you to indicate
your agreement or opposition to the special assessment. This card includes the
property identification and description, assessable footage per City policy, and the
estimated cost of the assessment. You may also appear, as above, in lieu of, or in
addition to mailing your response card to the City Clerk. Written objections or
appearances rnust be made at or prior to the hearing. NOTE: THE SPECIAL
ASSESSMENT WILL BE CREATED OR NULLIFIED AT THIS HEARING. IT IS
IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO COMMENT AT THIS HEARING IF YOU WANT YOUR
OPINION COUNTED FOR THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT.
A second public hearing will be held, if the district is created, to confirm the special
assessment roll after the project is completed. You will be mailed a separate notice for
the second hearing. At this second hearing the special assessment costs will be spread
on the affected properties accordingly. YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT YOU
HAVE A RIGHT TO PROTEST YOUR ASSESSMENT AMOUNT AGAINST YOUR
PARCEL EITHER IN WRITING OR IN PERSON AT THIS HEARING. IF THE SPECIAL
ASSESSMENT ROLL IS CONFIRMED AT THE SECOND HEARING, YOU WILL HAVE
THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF CONFIRMATION OF THE ROLL TO FILE A
WRITTEN APPEAL WITH THE MICHIGAN STATE TAX TRIBUNAL. HOWEVER,
UNLESS YOU PROTEST AT THE INITIAL HEARING OR AT THE SECOND HEARING
CONFIRMING THE ROLL, EITHER IN PERSON, BY AGENT, OR IN WRITING
BEFORE OR AT THE HEARING, YOUR RIGHT TO APPEAL TO THE MICHIGAN TAX
TRIBUNAL WILL BE LOST.

By City Charter, if the owners of more than one-half of the properties to be assessed
shall object to the assessment in writing at or before the hearing, the improvement shall
not be made unless the City Commission determines by affirmative vote of all its
members that the safety or health of the public necessitates the improvement.

                                    Estimated Costs

The total estimated cost of the street portion of the project is $100,000.00 of which
approximately 24.35% ($24,343.90) will be paid by special assessment to property
owners. Your property's estimated share of the special assessment is shown on the
attached hearing response card. The remaining costs will be paid by the City.

The street assessment, which covers improvements to the roadway, may be paid in
installments over a period of up to ten (10) years. Any work on drive approaches or
sidewalks will be assessed to the property at actual contract prices and these costs may
also be paid in installments over ten (10) years. Please note this work is in addition to
the street special assessment.

Please refer to the enclosed sheet entitled Special Assessment Payment Options for
more information on the payment options and financial assistance programs available.

I urge you to return the enclosed hearing response card indicating your preference and
to attend the scheduled public hearing. Your views are important to the City and to your
neighbors. Additional information, including preliminary project plans and cost
estimates is available in the Engineering Department located on the second floor of City
Hall. Regular business hours are from 8:00A.M. to 5:00P.M. Monday through Friday
except holidays.

Sincerely,

                       Special Assessment Payment Options

Property owners in the City of Muskegon who are being specially assessed for street, sidewalk or other public
improvements may pay their assessment in the following ways:
I.   Lump Sum Pavment in Full
Assessments may be paid in full within sixty (60) days of the confirmation of the special assessment roll
without interest.

II. Installment Payments
Assessments not paid within the first sixty (60) days may be paid in installments over several years as follows:

         Street and Alley Assessments- Ten ( 10) years equal annual principal payments. For example, if the
         amount of your assessment is $850.00, you will be billed $85.00 per year plus applicable interest as
         described below.

         Driveway, Sidewalk, and Approach Assessments- Ten (10) years equal annual principal payments
         plus applicable interest as described below.

         Interest- Simple interest is charged at the rate of 5.00% per year unless the City has borrowed money
         to complete the project for which you are assessed and has pledged you assessments for repayment of
         the borrowed money. In such cases, the interest you are charged is equal to the interest rate the City
         must pay on the borrowed money plus 1.00%.

Ill. Special Assessment Deferral (Low Income Seniors and Disabled Persons)
To qualify for a special assessment deferral you or your spouse (if jointly owned) must:

     •   Be 65 years or older or be totally or permanently disabled.

     •   Have been a Michigan resident for five (5) years or more and have owned and occupied the homestead
         being assessed for five (5) years or more.

     •   Be a citizen of the U.S.

     •   Have a total household income not in excess of $16,823.00

     •   Have a special assessment of $300.00 or more.

Under this program the State of Michigan will pay the entire balance owing of the special assessment,
including delinquent, current, and further installments. At the time of payment a lien will be recorded on your
property in favor of the State of Michigan. Repayment to the State must be made at the time the property is
sold or transferred or after the death of the owner(s). During the time the special assessment is deferred
interest is accrued at the rate of 6.00% per year.

IV. Further Information About the Above Programs
Further information about any of the above payment options may be obtained by calling either the City
Assessor's Office at 724-6708 or the City Treasurer's Office at 724-6720. Applications may be obtained at
the Muskegon County Equalization Office in the Muskegon County building or City of Muskegon Assessor's
Office in City Hall.

V.   Additional Special Assessment Payment Assistance

from this program will be available to the extent that funds are available. To obtain further information and

Hearing; Case 2005-07; Request for final Planned Unit Development approval for a
mixed use residential and commercial development on the former Muskegon Mall
Property (100 Muskegon Mall) by, Chris McGuigan (Downtown Muskegon
Development Corporation).

BACKGROUND
Applicant: Downtown Muskegon Development Corporation, Chris McGuigan, 425 W.
           Western Avenue, Muskegon

Property Address/Location:    100 Muskegon Mall (Former Muskegon Mall site)

Request:   Final Planned Unit Development (PUD) Approval

Present Land Use:    Vacant

Zoning:        B-3, Central Business

STAFF OBSERVATIONS
1.   The subject property is the site of former Muskegon Mall, encompassing
     approximately eight blocks downtown.
2.   The Preliminary PUD was approved by both the Planning Conunission and City
     Conunission in August 2004.
3.   Five vacant buildings remain on the site, and are original to Muskegon's downtown.
4.   A copy of "DMDC Design Standards" was submitted as part of the request. The applicant
     wishes to adopt these standards as part of the Final PUD.
5.   The applicant provided staff with a "General Explanation of Submittal", as well as a
     "Proposed Features and Vision" statement, copies of which are enclosed. These
     documents could be incorporated into the final approval, as well.
6.   What the applicant would like to accomplish through the Final PUD process is gain
     approval for the proposed locations of all streets, sidewalks, parking areas, service drives,
     and building locations.
7.   There are 914 parking spaces proposed for the site. The old Muskegon Mall site had
     approximately 1,032 spaces.
8.   The site is located in the "Downtown Parking Overlay District", which means any uses,
     except residential, may use on-street parking for up to 30% of their required parking area.
9.   Also, "parking areas for other than single, or two-family residential uses may be located
     up to 1,000 feet from the building they are intended to serve and may be provided in any
     zoning district except the R-1 district".
10.  Planned Unit Developments are meant to be a "living, breathing" document. They can be
      amended and, in this case, staff foresees many amendments in the futnre as the individual
      properties are sold to individual developers.
11.   The Department ofPublic Works has no issues with the site plan provided.
12.   The Police Department has no issues with the site plan provided.
13.   Engineering has submitted no comments regarding this site plan.
14.   The Fire Department has the following comments: 1) The project shall comply with
      MFPA 1141, Standards for Fire Protection in planned building groups; 2) Fire flow test
      shall be conducted asap, with the assistance of the DPW, to determine availability of
      hydrants and over all water supply. Report shall be submitted to the local Fire Marshall
      and Fire Chief for review.

Memo
To:        City Commission

From: Finance Director

Date: February 16, 2005

Re:        2004 Final Budget Amendments



Attached is a copy of the city's final 2004 amended budget The city was able to manage
through a very tough economy and maintain the general fund balance level at the policy
target of 10% of prior-year expenditures. Following are some of the 2004 budget highlights:

Revenues

General Fund revenues totaled $23,377,871 which is $133,011 more than originally
budgeted. Three primary general fund revenue sources, when taken together, account for
seventy-nine percent of total general fund income: income tax, property tax, and state shared
revenues.

City income tax -Income tax revenues were up $462,144 from the prior year and surpassed
the $7 million mark for only the second time. The increase is attributable almost entirely to
the diligent collection efforts of Income Tax department staff combined with the "AiR amnesty
program" which the commission approved in late summer. The downside of these efforts is
that about 75% of the increased income tax revenue is to be considered "one-time" and not a
recurring income stream to be counted on for 2005.

Property tax - 2004 total property tax revenues were $6,733,653, little changed from the
2003 level ($6,713,432).

State-shared revenue- State shared revenues continued their decline dropping from
$4,938,861 in 2003 to $4,651 ,365, a decrease of $287,496. The city's state revenue-sharing
allocation peaked at $5,748,523 in 2002 and has declined $1,097,158 since thattime.

Budget Stabilization Fund Transfer- Another key resource in the city's budget picture is the
budget stabilization fund. Throughout 2004 it had been anticipated that a $500,000 transfer
would be needed to balance the city's budget. The strong performance of the income tax
during the latter part of the year reduced the required transfer amount to $250,000,
preserving resources for future needs.

Expenditures

General fund expenditures totaled $23,416,869 through December 31, 2004 which is
$214,845 less than originally budgeted and $288,465 less than spent in 2003. The actual
level of cutbacks was considerably greater since the 2004 expense figure includes a one-
time $265,000 write-down of accounts receivable related to previously approved changes in
the invoicing process for lot mowing and environmental clean-up activities. Expenses were
controlled, even in the face of rapidly rising employee benefit costs, by holding positions
vacant, freezing wages for some employees, and eliminating non-essential expenses such
as travel. Particularly effective were departments' efforts to control overtime costs: general
fund overtime was reduced from $721,822 in 2003 to $508,624 in 2004, a nearly 30%
reduction.

In addition to the well-known factors negatively impacting the city's budget (rising benefit
costs, state-shared revenues, etc.), you should be aware of the following issues included in
the final 2004 budget amendments and which likely will impact future budgets as well:

    •     Arena/Marina - The LC Walker Arena had, in relative terms, a good year as it was
          not necessary to further increase the general fund subsidy from the original budgeted
          amount of $200,000. Hartshorn Marina, however, had poor financial results and we
          have included in the final 2004 budget amendments a $40,000 transfer to the Marina
          fund. The state recently granted some relief by allowing us to increase the number of
          seasonally-rented slips by ten. We will submit again next year to have additional
          slips moved to seasonal status.

    •     Sidewalks - As you know, the city is coming to the close of its ambitious citywide
          sidewalk improvement program. The program was financed by issuing bonds to pay
          construction costs and levying assessments against benefiting properties to repay
          the bonds. It was known from the outset that there would ultimately be a gap due to
          "unassessable" properties that nonetheless received improvements. These include
          properties that were in tax-reverted status at the time of the assessment (or
          subsequent to the assessment), some school or otherwise exempted properties and,
          assessments deemed uncollectible for any other reason. Also impacting the program
          were the high number of early assessment pay-offs caused by homeowners taking
          advantage of low interest rates to refinance or sell their homes. Cash currently on
          hand, together with new collections, is expected to be adequate through 2008.
          However, staff recommends that we begin now to address the future obligation by
          transferring $125,000 to the Sidewalk fund as part of the year-end budget
          amendments.

Finally, I have included 2005 budget figures on the attached schedule for comparison
purposes only. At this time there is not enough information available to warrant changes to
the 2005 budget. If you have any questions please let me know. Thank you.
