propose approximately 7%reduction in price based upon 1999 quantities (see attached breakdown).
There were a number of factors involved for not being able to finish the I 999 project. I have been
operating E+K construction for the last four years. This past year two key employees retired and 1999 turned out to
be a test of what we were able to achieve. I was really pleased with our performance and give credit to the
employees ofE+K. Their dedication and workmanship are to be commended. In a typical year, March and April
are when most jobs are bid, and so was the case in 1999. E+K bid major projects last year and a majority of
these projects were awarded at a later date, and some were stalled. Another factor is that we ran into a lot of trees
with roots on the 1999 project. As stressed to us in other years, trees are important. Roots involve a lot of
handwork which takes more time . Also, weather played a part last year. With rain days and the threat of rain,
days were lost. Being spread out on this project, I felt proper protection from weather could not be placed in time
to ensure a quality job. Repairing damaged concrete wonld set us back further in the schedule. Last year, I feel
every effort was taken to complete the project but time ran out on me.
Now being the middle of February, I have good hold on this years schedule. If the 1999 contract is
extended, I wonld abstain from bidding other projects with conflicting schednles.
E+K has always been dedicated to quality workmanship in a timely manner. I think our past
performance, including clean up, reflects quality workmanship. For the 2000 project, I propose a completion date
of October 1,2000 with full understanding of penalties being enforced as listed in contract. I would welcome the
opportunity to work with the city on this project.
Thank you for your consideration.

ENGINEERING FEASIBILITY STUDY
ROBERTS STREET
LAWRENCE AVENUE TO WESLEY AVENUE
The new construction of Roberts Street from Lawrence Avenue to Wesley Avenue was
initiated by the City of Muskegon, Department of Public Works. The proposed new
construction of this unpaved section of Roberts Street is consistent with the City's goals
and objectives to eliminate all unpaved streets with in the city limits. This project was
identified and established in the 2000 Capital Improvement Budgets for Local Streets.
The project was identified due to the unpaved surface of the street. The improvement we
are recommending consists of installing a paved surface, curb and gutter with associated
storm water catchment.
A memo from the Assessor's office, which addresses the appraisal and benefit to abutting
properties, is attached.
The preliminary cost estimate for the work associated with this project is approximately
$150,000. The length of the project is approximately 1,080 lineal feet with 1,139.46
assessable footage. Therefore, the estimated improvement cost is $131.64 per assessable
foot. However, the assessment cost will not exceed $33.40 per assessable foot. The
maximum assessment cost of $33.40 per assessable foot is based on the established 2000
Special Assessment Cost Estimates prepared by the City of Muskegon Engineering
Department.

Mr. Al-Shatel:
In accordance with your request, I have examined the proposed special
assessment district entailing the paving of Roberts 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 subject to the normal
governmental restrictions of escheat, taxation, police power and eminent domain.
The effective date is March 7, 2000.
In conclusion, it is my opinion that the special assessment amounts justly and
reasonably represents the accrued benefits to the properties encompassed by this
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 to an improved quality of life created by the proposed
project. As previol.Jsly pres~n,te .-\dion

necessitates the improvement.
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THERE ARE PAYMENT ASSISTANCE AND DEFERRAL PROGRAMS
FOR CERTAIN PERSONS WHO QUALIFY. FOR INFORMATION ON QUALIFYING FOR SUCH
PROGRAMS, PLEASE REFER TO THE ENCLOSED SHEET ENTITLED "SPECIAL ASSESSMENT
PAYMENT OPTIONS." If your application for payment assistance through the CDBG Program has
already been approved, you need to do nothing else at this time; the City will make the repairs, and you
will not be assessed for the replacement costs.
The Assessment, which covers the improvements to the sidewalk (and drive approach if needed), may be
paid in installments over a period of up to ten (10) years. Special assessments which are paid in
installments, will carry an interest rate in the amount of one percent (1%) in excess of bonding interest
rates, or an interest rate which is determined by the City in accordance with its policy.
Preliminary plans and details are on file in the Engineering Department in the City Hall. You are welcome
to review the said plans and costs during business hours at the City Hall which are from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00
P.M., Monday through Friday, except for holidays.

HOW YOUR SIDEWALK WAS CHOSEN FOR REPLACEMENT
The City's comprehensive sidewalk replacement program set minimum standards to help reduce
potential accidents due to broken or uneven walkways. To establish those sections of sidewalk that
need to be replaced, the following criteria were followed:
1. Rise or drop of more than ¾".
2. Broken or cracked in many pieces throughout.
3. Holes more than ¾" deep.
4. Badly spalled.
5. Open cracks more than ½" wide.
6. Broken sections with loose pieces of concrete.
7. Crumbling due to age, weather, and/or improper material used in the original construction, or for
other reasons.
8. Side slope of more than 8% (1" for every 12").
Additional conditions: When one section doesn't need to be replaced, but the sections on each side
do, all three sections must be replaced. When only a small area (one square foot or less) of a section i~
missing or broken, it will not need to be replaced provided there is still 42" of good continuous sidewalk
and there is no rise or drop.
Those sections that do not fall within the above criteria but are hazardous, will be required to be
replaced.
Sidewalk size: Sidewalks are to be 5' wide with the exception of sidewalks that go around trees, in
which case the minimum continuous width must be 42".
SIDEWALKS IN THE TERRACE: Sidewalks that are located in the terrace between the City sidewalk
and the curb will be inspected with the same criteria as the City sidewalks and may either be removed
or repaired at the owner's choice.
DRIVE APPROACHES: If a drive approach is hazardous with deep holes or raised areas, or other
hazards, it will be required to be replaced. If no approach is provided, but cars are crossing the terrace,
an approach will be required, provided a legal driveway is permitted by the Zoning Ordinance.
Street corners and alleys: The city will be responsible for the cost of all replacement of sidewalks at
the street corners and where alleys cross the sidewalks. If the sidewalk is to be replaced at corners, it
will be made handicapped accessible.
Requesting additional sections to be replaced: Owners of property will be allowed to request that
additional sections of sidewalk be replaced. This could include sections of sidewalk that are cracked or
broken, but not hazardous, or if the owner wishes to have their total sidewalk replaced. This does not
include property owners receiving CDBG funding to pay for their special assessment; these owners will
be restricted to the required sections only.
Appeal Process: If you feel the sidewalk does not meet the above criteria, you may appeal to the City
Engineer at 724-6707. If you are still not satisfied after your appeal, you may request a hearing with the
Sidewalk Review Board.
If you have questions about the specific sections that need to be replaced, please contact the

Dear City Clerk:
I'm writing in response to the letter sent last week regarding the
Special Sidewalk Assessment. I'm disabled and unable to attend
the meeting March 14. However, please note I'm in favor of the
Special Assessment. I feel it's important that our sidewalks are
kept in a safe condition for everyone to enjoy.
It's my intention to allow the City of Muskegon's selected
Contractor to replace the one square on my property I'm told needs
replacing. In a discussion with the Engineer's Department today,
I •m told the estimated costs of repairs for a 5 x 5 square is
around $132.50. I understand these costs may vary due to the bid
process and a re-evaluation of the sidewalk on
my property.

To Whom it May Concern:
I am responding to your request regarding repairing the sidewalk. Thank you for offering
a special assessment application, however, it is not needed at this time. I am making plans
to have the sidewalk repaired this Spring.
Thank you.

To Whom It May Concern:
The Muskegon City Commission has told us that it will cost us $3,950.00 for the
sidewalk replacement program. This is a little steep since next year we will also be taxed
for putting the sidewalks in.
I agree the sidewalk squares on the West side of my home (Front) should be replaced.
We have called the Cemetery Dept. twice, which takes care of trees on the terrace. The
first time, no one came out to look at the problem and never got back with us. The
second time we called, the lady said we don't cut down live trees, just dead ones.
The roots of the tree are 20" from the sidewalk and lifting three sections of sidewalk up.
The roots are coming right out of the ground. If the tree is not cut down the problem will
reoccur in a few years. By cutting the roots back the tree will be strong only on one side
and who will be responsible for damages to property ifwe should have a good
windstorm?
The sidewalk on the southwest side of the lot, from the driveway west, is not in bad
condition. The pitting problem is not that bad.
Sidewalk replacement on southeast side oflot, the sidewalk was never put in when the
roads were paved in this area. Most of the neighbors have sidewalks, why wasn't it
mandatory to put the sidewalk in back theri. l didn't live .in this area when roads and
sidewalks were put in and feel this isn't right because we bought into the City of
Muskegon where the sidewallcs should have been done back then.
Thank You,

I am writing this letter to protest this special assessment of repairs of the sidewalk of 920

I don't believe some of the walk that is marked for repair needs to be repaired.

between 5:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. April 1, 2000 is Census Day. March 13 -15, Census
Forms I Questionnaire will be mailed to the residents.
The City of Muskegon is very supportive of Census 2000. To that end, the City has
provided technical and logistical support to Census staff to help foster a successful
Census count within the City of Muskegon. The Commission Chamber is one of the
Assistance Centers set up to help residents fill-out their Census Form. This center will be
open effective March 15 to April 7 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 3 :00 p.m.
The City has invited Ms. Zant to make a presentation at the City Commission meeting on
March 14, 2000. Ms. Zant's comments will further educate all ofus about the critical
importance of full participation in this process.

CITY OF MUSKEGON
PLANNING COMMISSION
REGULAR MEETING
January 12, 2000
Hearing; Case 2000-4: Request for vacation of the south half only of the north/south
alley in Alberts & Holthe Subdivision, Block 4 (between Henry and Beidler Streets), by
DJ's Pub.
BACKGROUND
This request has been made by DJ's Pub, in response to discussion with staff regarding a
vacant lot owned by DJ's, currently used for overflow parking. The lot is zoned for single-
family residential and the current parking use is nonconforming. Staff recommends vacation
of the south half of the alley, which lies between the pub and the empty lot in order to give
DJ's control and responsibility for maintenance. Pub customers will still be able to exit onto
Henry St. or through the alley to the north. DJ's will also be applying to the Zoning Board of
Appeals for a use variance for the lot in order to recognize the nonconformity and require
some site improvements to reduce impacts on the neighbors. As long as the usual easements
and rights, as well as fire access, are maintained the Fire, Engineering and Public Works
department have no objections to the vacation of the south half only of the alley.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the request with the conditions below.
DETERMINATION
The following motions are offered for consideration:
I move that the vacation of the west half only of the north/south alley in Block 346 be
(approved/denied). based on (compliance/lack of compliance) with the City's Master Land
Use Plan and conditions set forth in Section 2315 of the City of Muskegon Zoning Ordinance
{based on the following conditions--only if approved):
1. That all City easements, as well as adequate fire access, be retained.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
Case 2000-02 - Use variance request to permit a vacant lot on Wilson Ave. (between Henry and
Beidler Streets), zoned R-1, Single-Family Residential, to be used as extra parking for a business
use, by DJ's Pub -The owners of DJ's Pub submitted a request to permit a vacant lot on Wilson
to be used as extra parking for a business use. Staff report was given by D. Harrison and B.
Moore. This case is the result of several neighbor complaints regarding use of this lot as a
parking lot. The lot being used for parking is zoned R-1, Single Family Residential. The DJ's
property used to be within township boundaries and apparently the lot has been used for decades
as parking. The applicant provided a letter from the previous owner and long time residents
indicating that the "parking area" had been that way for years. The south half of the north/south
alley in this block has been recommended for vacation by the Planning Commission, although
they asked staff to hold off taking it to City Commission for approval pending the outcome of
this request of a use variance. Staff pointed out that the City Fire Marshall will not allow this
alley to be blocked, since fire access must be maintained. DJ's has been using the vacant lot as
overflow parking for their business. The lot is not paved and no screening has been provided for
adjacent homes. The lot needs to be surfaced and adequate screening needs to be provided. One
call was received by staff from a neighbor who was mainly concerned about noise, litter and
garbage on the lot, and lack of screening. D. Schiller, owner of DJ's Pub, spoke in favor of the
request. She stated that she would comply with the screening requirements and would like to
improve things for the neighbors. J. Houghtaling asked where people would be parking on the
lot. D. Schiller said that they mainly park closest to the alley, but she would put in curb stops if
necessary to keep the parking confined to that side of the lot. D. Kushka spoke against the
request, citing too much noise and traffic. A motion to close the public hearing was made by J.
Aslakson, supported by P. Witherell, and unanimously approved. J. Aslalrnon felt that this was a
historic use on the site, and would be the best way to make sure there is screening provided. A
motion to grant the use variance to allow the vacant lot located on Wilson Ave. between Henry
and Beidler Streets to be used for extra parking for a business use based on the following review
standards: a) That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applying to
the property in question or to the intended use of the property that do not apply generally to other
properties or class of uses in the same zoning district; b) That such variance is necessary for the
preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other properties in the
same zoning district and in the vicinity; and c) That the authorizing of such variance will not be
of substantial detriment to adjacent property and will not materially impair the purposes of this
chapter of the public interest, and based on the following conditions: 1) That the improvements
to the property must be complete within one year or the variance is void; 2) The variance is
recorded with the deed to keep record of it in the future; 3) A screen on the vacant residential lot
be provided, at a minimum at the 25-foot setback off Wilson; 4) A four-foot stockade fence be
provided between the existing parking lot and homes to the south of the pub; 5) The overflow
parking area must be graded and graveled. A buffer strip of 15 feet from the east property line
must remain; 6) The remaining tree on the residential lot must be preserved; 7) A sketch be
provided by the property owner that depicts the above conditions being met; 8) Should the
business expand, the overflow are must be paved; 9) The Zoning Administrator may require curb
stops to protect the 15-foot setback. The motion was made by J. Aslakson, supported by D.
Narowitz, and unanimously approved.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 4:35 p.m.

Re: City of Muskegon/Shoreline East Acquisition/Terrace Lots
Our File 100-1403(19)
Dear Eric:
Our letters and phone calls to date have involved the exploration of and your offer to sell to the
City land along Terrace Street in the "Terrace Lots Parcel," a total of3.88 acres ofland, at
$70,000 per acre. In addition, your offer involved placing a directional sign to indicate the
Muskegon Mall at an appropriate location.
I have reviewed this with the City. Your offer would mean a payment of $271,600 for the
3.88 acres. We believe that the price for the entire 3.88 acres is too high, and we are unwilling to
purchase that property on that basis.
Please consider this letter a final good faith offer of just compensation for the portion of the land
along Terrace Street and in the Terrace Lots parcel needed for the Shoreline Drive entrance off
Terrace Street. The City offers $59,000 for the said lands.
The legal description for the lands is not presently developed, except to compare the legal
description of other lands in the Terrace Lots Parcel which would not be purchased, in
accordance with the appraisal submitted by Mr. Nedeau on February 3, 2000, a copy of which
has been supplied to you. The entrance as depicted on the property sketch map on page 25 of the
appraisal is the area being sought by this offer to purchase.
The City does not reserve any right to bring federal or state cost recovery actions arising out of or
release of hazardous substances at the property, if any.
The appraisal dated February 3, 2000, prepared by Stephen P. Nedeau, and previously supplied to
you, is the basis for this offer.

As stated in our previous letter, this offer contemplates the retention by the City in the areas
known as "Parcel A" and "Parcel B" shown on the property sketch map on page 25 of the
appraisal.
This offer is made to all parties having an interest in the parcels, including any mortgagee parties.
By the time you receive this letter, we hope to have updated any title work which would show the
interest of any such party. This offer is an all inclusive offer to all said parties.
I very much appreciate your attempts to reach an agreement in this matter, and I am sorry that we
could not do so. Unless I hear from you otherwise within ten days of this letter, I will be
approaching the City Commission for its review and determination concerning necessity and the
p°'"""'" of a declaration of taking. I certainly invite your comments at any time.

RESOLUTION NO. 2000-34 ( c)
A resolution determining the necessity to acquire land for public purposes by eminent

Recitals
I. The City of Muskegon is presently engaged in developing and acquiring a property
located in Block 557 and Block 562 of the Revised Plat of 1903 of the City of Muskegon
for the purpose of constructing the highway known as Shoreline Drive.
2. It appears that it is necessary to begin eminent domain proceedings because of the status
and results of negotiations which have been carried on by the City.
3. There is considerable evidence that the establishment of Shoreline Drive at the said
location will be advantageous to the development of the traffic needs and development of
the City of Muskegon, and that it is in the best interests of the City to establish the said
highway. Plans have been prepared and developed to sufficiently indicate the location of
the highway and its effect on the land to be acquired.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COMMISSION RESOLVES:
1. The City Commission hereby declares and determines that it is in the public interest and
constitutes a public purpose to acquire the property set forth in Exhibit A attached to this
resolution for the purpose of acquiring sufficient land to construct the highway known as
Shoreline Drive.
2. The City Commission further declares and determines that it is necessary to construct the
said highway in Block 557 and Block 562 of the Revised Plat of the City of Muskegon,
and the said improvement is necessary for the use and benefit of the public.
3. It is further declared and determined that it is necessary to acquire and take the fee simple
estate in real property, fully described in Exhibit A, without the consent of the owners
thereof, for the purpose of constructing the said highway. The said described parcel is
necessary for the use and benefit of the public and a good faith written offer to purchase
said parcel has been made. In the event the said offer is not accepted, the City Attorney is
directed to institute condemnation proceedings against the owners and any other parties in
interest in the said described parcel which has been deemed necessary for the acquisition
and construction highway improvement.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION
FROM: LEE SLAUGHI'ER, ASSISI"ANT CITY MANAGER
HEATiiER SANDBERG, MANAGEMENT ASSISTANT
SUBJECT: HANGINGMAYORALPORTRAITS
DATE: 8-3-99
ca IMAGE COMMIITEE
The issue of hanging Mayoral Portraits was raised by Mayor Nielsen. After researching the
issue, the following action is suggested. The portraits of the first and current Mayor hung on
the wall outside of the Commission Chambers. Between the two pictures, a plaque that
contains 96 individual plates will hang. Each plate will be engraved with the name and
date(s) of service of each mayor who ever served in Muskegon. We will require 67 of the
plates with the names up to the present date and allow ourselves room for growth.
The reason behind this recommendation is that we do not have portraits of all the Mayors of
Muskegon that would make a complete set and, for those we do have, they are all different
sizes and some are in poor condition. Even if we did have portraits of eveiyone, they would
have to be adjusted to the same size and we would need to purchase frames so that they are
all uniform. By hanging the first Mayor, the current Mayor and noting all those in between,
we can accomplish naming all individuals who have served and still maintain a quality
looking, complete finished product at a reasonable cost.
As we are in the process of beginning this project, if you have suggestions regarding this
issue, please direct them to either Lee or Heather.

RE: Shoreline Dr. East Consulting Agreement amendment
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
To approve an amendment to the engineering agreement with Earth-Tech for the Shoreline
Drive East to include the additional cost of redesign a steel bridge over south bound

discovery of compressible soils in the vicinity of, a mutual decision between MOOT and the
City that a change in structures was indeed necessary.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The amendment will add $100,000 to Earth -Tech's not to exceed cost, increasing the total
allowed cost to $510,280.50.
BUDGET ACTION REQUIRED:
None. The additional cost, or most of it, will be funded by the State.

Proposal for Engineering Services - Structure A (Extended)
Telephone
Dear Mohammed:
6 16.942 .9600
Please find enclosed our proposal for engineering services for the extension and redesign of Facsimile
Structure A to meet minimum requirements established in last geotechnical meeting with the
Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT).
During the geotechnical investigation phase of this project, we discovered unsuitable soil
conditions that warranted change in the preliminary design of Structure A. MDOT expressed
concerns about the height of embankment and use of MSE walls over compressible soils.
After several meetings with MDOT, we determined that moving the southern abutment
approximately 30 meters to the south would minimize risks for post-construction settlement
in the approach.
The increased length of structure makes necessary a change in superstructure type from pre-
stressed concrete beams to curved steel girders. Earth Tech proposes a two to three span
curved steel girder structure to carry Shoreline Drive over southbound US 31-BR. The
number and length of spans as well as skew angle to be determined during preliminary
engineering in conjunction with final soils report. Design to include steel curved girder
superstructure with composite concrete deck. Substructure is to consist of standard concrete
pile abutments and piers.
We estimate approximately 1062 hours to complete the items for a cost of$ 100,000. In
preparing this estimate, we gave consideration for the hours for final design of Structure A in
the original contract. However, there are major new elements with this new structure as the
curved steel girder, steel details, new pier design, and new abutment design.

Additional direct expenses not included in the original contract include: additional soil
borings and geotechnical engineering to satisfy MDOT requests. Earth Tech has contracted
with Soil and Materials Engineers, Inc. to do the geotechnical analysis. We are expecting
results by mid-January. The costs for this work is also included in this proposal. If you
should have any questions regarding this proposal, please contact me at (616) 975-4586.
Very truly yours,
