FOR THE CITY COMMISSION MEETING OF OCTOBER 2, 2017

DATE: SEPTEMBER 28, 201 7 � FROM: MARTY COLBURN, CITY MANAGER

SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL REZONING- 340 E. STATE STREET

Attached is a previously distributed memo from City Planning Director Russ Soyring regarding a conditional rezoning request fromJon Laureto to conditionally rezone 340 E. State Street from C-4a (Regional Center) to C-4b (Regional Center) which would allow forthe construction of a building up to 60 feet, by right.

The project design and architecture will be consistent with the Urban Design Element TC-5 of the City's Master Plan. Please recall that with conditional rezonings, the City Commission may either approve the offer or reject it.

Also attached are the previously-provided materials submitted by the applicant, which provides the "conditions" forthe rezoning. These conditions are incorporated into the conditional rezoning agreement by which the developer would be bound. It should be noted that the agreement tracks with the land - not the owner; meaning, if the request were approved, the restrictions contained in the agreement would apply to the property regardless of future ownership transfers.

If the conditional rezoning is ultimately approved, the development must be at least 75% complete within two years and 100% within three years; if not, the conditional rezoning is void.

The following motion would enact the conditional rezoning which would become effectiveon November 3, 2017:

that an amendment to the Traverse City Code of Ordinances, which would conditionally rezone 340 E. State Street from C-4a to C-4b (Regional Center), as requested by Jon Laureto, which was recommended by the City Planning Commission, which was introduced on September 18, 2017, be enacted with an effective date of November 3, 2017,and further

Motion continued on the next page Conditional Rezoning - 415 E. State Street July 13, 2017 that the Mayor and City Clerk execute a Conditional Rezoning Agreement with Jon Laureto of REI Construction, which would conditionally rezone the property commonly referred to as 340 E. State Street, which was recommended by the City Planning Commission, such agreement subject to approval as to its substance by the City Manager and its form by the City Attorney.

TO: Marty Colburn, City Manager

FROM: Russ Soyring, Planning Director -f..JAM

SUBJECT: Conditional Rezoning request for 340 E. State S C-4a Regional Center to C-4b Regional Center

DATE : September 11, 2017

The straight rezoning from C-4a to C-4b request from Mr. Laureto considered by the Planning Commission on 7/5/17 was withdrawn by the applicant on 7/10/17 because it was not favorably received by the Planning Commission. A revised request was made by Jon Laureto to conditionally rezone 340 East State Street from C-4a (Regional Center) to C-4b (Regional Center). The applicant provided a conditional rezoning offer to limit the increased development capacity allowed if the property is rezoned by the City. The Planning Commission considered and introduced the request on 8/1/17 and scheduled the matter for a Public Hearing on 9/6/17. There was no public comment during the 'Public Hearing.

Essentially, the conditional rezoning offer would allow for a 1,490 square foot community room on what would be considered the sixth floor. The difference in the two zoning districts is simply the height limitation. C-4a is limited to 45 feet for building heights. C-4b is limited to 60 feet (by right) and 68 feet if a Special Land Use Permit (SLUP) is approved for a "Taller building" and the voters approve of the request to be taller than 60 feet. The applicant has offered to limit the all the enclosed spaces, including the elevator shaft, stair tower and equipment/mechanical room not exceed 60 feet in height.

As you can see from the aerial photograph, the subject property is positioned along State Street between C-4c (Regional Center) which allows buildings as tall as 100 feet (by SLUP) and C-4a which limits buildings to 45 feet.

340 East State Street is located between an office to the west and a multiple family building to the east. The Master Plan designates this area as a TC-5 (Downtown) neighborhood that is intended to be the most formally and intensely developed of the two types of commercial neighborhoods. The focus is on high intensity, regional, commercial activity and housing of commercial scale.

The Master Plan also states that buildings are to be placed close the sidewalks and long buildings should be divided into smaller increments. As one moves closer to the TC-3 neighborhood to the east, the Master Plan calls out for building mass to drop down near the periphery of the TC-5 neighborhood.

Although building plans and illustrations have been submitted with this rezoning request, these are for informational only of what the applicant intends to build. If the property is rezoned, please note that an entirely different building type and style with a different use could be built. However, with that said, the applicant has already started the construction for a building shown in illustrations noted as approved on the accompanying sheet.

400 BOARDMAN AVENUE • TRAVERSE CITY, MICHIGAN 49684 • (231) 922-4778 Page 2 of 5 Evaluation Guide for Conditional Rezonings

1. Is the zoning offer clear and precise and can the conditions (offers) be reasonably enforced? The offer is clearly and can be easily enforced

2. Is the proposed zoning offer consistent with the Traverse City Master Plan or will the offer advance the Traverse City Master Plan? The request is consistent with the urban design concept that intensity, in this case building mass, should step down as one approaches a less intense neighborhood type. The property is near the border of the TC-5 intense neighborhood and the much lower intensity of a TC-3 type neighborhood.

3. If the offer pertains to the physical attributes of the development does the offer provide for logical and orderly development? The rezoning offers would limit the height to 60 feet for all parts of the building and locate the highest portions of the building to be in the middle part of the building making the top floor less visible from the street or alley. The part of the building closest to the street and the alley would be 45 feet in height. It should be noted that parts of the building (staircase tower, elevator shaft and enclosed rooftop equipment) would be allowed to be taller than 60 feet without this offer to limit the highest points of the building to 60 feet. The property to the west could have a building as tall as 100 feet by SLUP or PUD. To the north buildings could be as tall as 60 feet (plus additional height for staircase towers, etc.). To the east and south buildings could be as tall as 45 feet with the allowance of the staircase tower, etc. to be at a higher height. The offers provide physical attributes for logical and orderly development.

4. Have conditions changed to a degree that makes the proposed zoning preferable? Up till July, 1999, the zoning on this property allowed buildings up to 125 feet by right. When a new zoning code was adopted in 1999, the zoning regulations required much lower building heights. Ten years later the City Master Plan was adopted that embraced the idea of having transitional areas where different neighborhood types with different intended intensities bordered. The TC-5 (Downtown) neighborhood was envisioned to have buildings with "Greatest building mass within the City with appropriate balance and scale." The proposed zoning would allow for a less abrupt transition to occur if the three adjoining property owners on both sides of the subject property built to the maximum height. {100 feet to 60 feet to 45 feet versus 100 feet to 45 feet)

5. Does the proposed zoning offer address a demonstrated community need as identified in the Michigan Zoning Enabling Act? See Part 125.3201, Section 201(1) below. The proposed zoning offer does not mention the uses. A multi-story building up to 60 feet is proposed. Vacancy rates in the downtown are low and rents are high for both commercial and residential uses. These indicators suggest there is a market for a new building downtown. There is adequate infrastructure for a multistory building.

400 BOARDMAN AVENUE • TRAVERSE CITY, MICHIGAN 49684 • (231) 922-4778 Page3 of 5 6. Is the proposed rezoning designation appropriate for the land and its location? There is commercial development on two sides of the property and multiple-family on one side and institutional on the remaining side. The rezoning does not change what uses can go on the property, the only change is the height allowance. As mentioned above, the parcel sits between a high building zone and a low building zone. Having an intermediate zone for building height will permit for a more gentle transition which is appropriate in light of the City Master Plan.

7. Would the zoning offer substantially impact properties in the immediate vicinity in a positive or negative way?" The current zoning allows for a rooftop patio. The proposed zoning would allow for a 1,490 square foot community room to be on the rooftop that will be no higher than the mechanical room, elevator shafts and staircase tower. The amenity will likely command higher rents for the apartment building. The shadow pattern will be somewhat more pronounced to the east and west. No substantially impact is expected since essentially the same building can be build if the rezoning is not approved.

8. Would the zoning offer further the protection of the natural environment? Any new development on the property will need to meet today's ordinances including the storm water ordinance regulations. Up to recently there was a paved parking lot without any drainage facilities. The new development will help to protect the environment by having underground drainage facilities to hold up to a 2.5 inch storm.

9. Can the uses proposed in the conditional rezoning offer be adequately served by existing public utilities and facilities? No proposed uses are in the rezoning offer, but a residential building is under construction. There is adequate infrastructure to support the multi-story building under construction along with the addition of a community room intended for the residents of the building.

10. Are there sufficient demands for use(s) identified in the zoning offer? No uses are offered. The requested C-4b zoning, as with the current C-4a zoning allows · for commercial, institutional and residential uses.

May 2017 TC lofts at State - Conditional Rezoning Request 7/11/17

Rezoning Request Narrative

The TC Lofts at State project is a 12-month rental apartment housing project located at 340 E. State St. The project has already started to receive applications and has a large list of interested persons. The project will add 39 new households to the heart of downtown who are looking forward to the walkability and vibrancy of the downtown district.

The project is a use-by-right project and has already obtained a land use permit and foundations have begun. The project is currently approved with a large roof top d.eck & outdoor kitchen area. We are requesting that the 1,490 SF outdoor kitchen area be allowed to become an enclosed community room.

Several potential residents have expressed that an enclosed community room at the rooftop deck will help create the community the new residents are seeking. The enclosed community room will allow residents to increase relationships 12 months out of the year in lieu of a seasonal deck.

The community room will be recessed from the perimeter of the building so it will not be seen from the street below. The mechanical air shafts create a natural limit to the size of the community room. The mechanical shafts & proposed trellis will have the same massing effect as an enclosed community room.

Attachments: • Requested Cover Photo dated 3/6/17 • Requested RoofTop Plan dated 3/6/17 • Approved Cover Photo dated 5/25/17 • Approved RoofTop Plan dated 5/25/17 • Approved Mech Roof Plan dated 5/25/17 • Site, Plan Cl.O dated 3/7/17 • Recent Approved Zoning Changes in C-4a map Conditional Rezoning

A conditional rezoning is a legislative decision whereby the basic requirement is to promote public, safety and welfare. A conditional zoning offer shall bear a reasonable and rational relationship or benefit to the property in question. Any offer shall be made voluntarily by the landowner for the use and development of the land in exchange for rezoning of the land.

Evaluation Guide for Conditional Rezonings

1. Is the zoning offer clear and precise and can the conditions (offers) be reasonably enforced? Yes . Rezone the property to C-4b with restriction to limit the height to less than 59'-11" per the floor plan labeled Requested Roof Plan dated 3/6/17. The enclosed community room would increase the enclosed space by 1,490 SF . The finishes on the 2 added community room walls will be primarily glass between the mechanical air shafts & metal panels to match the North Elevation fai;:ade .

2. Is the proposed zoning offer consistent with the Traverse City Master Plan or will the offer advance the Traverse City Master Plan? Yes . A 12-month rental apartment will add people and families to the community. TC Lofts at State is a great project for the periphery of the Master Plan's most intense district, TC-5 Downtown. The project helps fulfill the Mater Plan vision, Goals, and Core Principles of the TC-5 by allowing the projects residents to walk between live, work, and play and fight urban sprawl which leads to the deterioration of neighborhoods.

3. If the offer pertains to the physical attributes of the development does the offer provide for logical and orderly development? Yes. The project broke ground on July 5, 2017. If approved, the community room roof structure will be installed no later than February 2018. The building will be 100% complete and residents moving in by June l, 2018.

4. Have conditions changed to a degree that makes the proposed zoning preferable? Yes. Downtown residential units continue to grow as a goal for the City of Traverse City per recent prioritization of rental housing by the DDA. The BRA recently granted financial assistance to our competitor, the Warehouse Flats and the city rezoned our competitor's C-4a site allowing the entire 78,000 SF to extend to 60ft. The Hotel Indigo is zoned C-4a and received approval for rooftop deck enclosed areas. The Mercer property is zoned C-4a and received approval for additional enclosed space at the rooftop deck area. The multi-family project, Washington Place obtained a rezone from C-4a to C-4b without restrictions

5. Does the proposed zoning offer address a demonstrated community need as identified in the Michigan Zoning Enabling Act? See Part 125.3201, Section 201(1) be low. Yes . TC Lofts meets the needs of the City's citizens for places of residence and is situated in an appropriate location, and helps prevent overcrowding of land and congestion of population by fighting urban sp rawl. In 2016, the DOA hired Economist Chris Brewer to issue a report which highlights the lack of apartment s and renta l housing near town. The DDA board has since adopted a new plan for "increasing affordable and rental housing downtown" which this project implements without the use of Tax Payer funds or TIF incentives. 6. Is the proposed rezon ing designation appropriate for the land and its location? · Yes. The project will transform a parking lot into a new development that will help enhance E.State Street architecturally into a part of downtown per goals of the Master Plan Urban Design Element The Park Place is approximately 140 ft tall, the property to the West is zoned C-4c (100ft), the 340 E State parcel requests at C-4b with conditions, and the final transition to the C- 4a 45ft brownstone site at the edge of the TC-5 district. The properties to the North, towards the bay, are zoned C-4b.

7. Would the zon ing offer substantially impact properties in the immediate vicinity in a positive or negative way?" No . The requested community room enclosure is recessed from the perimeter of the building so it will not be seen from the street. The proposed Peninsula Place will conceal the building from the Park Place. The brownstones on Boardman block the entire building from the Boardman sidewalk. Refer to the difference between the renderings labeled Requested Cover Image dated 3/6/17 and Approved Cover Image dated 5/25/17. The mechanical Air Shafts & trellis surrounding the outdoor kitchen will have the same massing effect as the enclosed community room .

8. Would the zoning offer further the protection of the natural environment? Yes . The site is an existing parking lot which all storm water off the site & the new project will keep all storm water on site through a water infiltration system. The project fights urban sprawl & encourages walkability.

9. Can the uses proposed in the conditional rezoning offer be adequately served by existing public utilities and facilities? Yes . Enclosing the community room does not add rental units, storm water, parking, or traffic to the project. The water and sewer will be negligible as an outdoor kitchen will simply be enclosed but available 12 months of the year with an added ADA unisex bathroom.

10. Are there sufficient demands for use(s) identified in the zoning offer? Yes. Rental Housing is a priority for Traverse City per local officials and the ODA. The building already has leased units and a long reservation list. Many requests for additional community space have been expressed for the tenants looking for a downtown living & walkable experience.

Chris Fredrickson of the Traverse City Whiskey Company is requesting a New Small Winemaker License and a New Microbrewer License for operation at 201 E. 14th Street. He would also like to register these licenses with the City as required under Chapter 834 of the Code of Ordinances.

A Small Winemaker means a Winemaker that manufactures or bottles not more than 50,000 gallons of wine within one calendar year.

A Micro-Brewer license allows a business to sell beer produced on the premises to consumers for consumption on the premises or for take-out (MCL 436.1109(2).

If the City Commission adopts the resolution approving the license, then it will be provided to the Michigan Liquor Control Commission (MLCC) and it then may consider granting or not granting the license. The applicant has paid the appropriate application fee and this request has been reviewed by the appropriate city departments, including the Police Department, and meets all ordinance/law requirements. The supporting documentation is on file with this office.

I recommend the Commission adopt a resolution recommending approval of this request. This license cannot be operated unless the City Commission authorizes the City Clerk to issue a registration to the TCWC, LLC. I respectfully recommend that the City Commission authorize the City Clerk to issue the registration.

As always, please let me know if you have any questions or ifl may be of further assistance. bcm/kez Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs Business ID: Liquor Control Commission (MLCC) Request ID: Toll Free: 866-813-0011 • www.michigan.gov/lcc ------(For MLCC use only) Local Government Approval (Authorized by MCL 436.1501)

DATE: SEPTEMBER 28, 2017 � FROM: MARTY COLBURN, CITY MANAGER

SUBJECT: CHANGE ORDER FOR ALLEY RECONSTRUCTION IN CONNECTION WITH SPECIAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT 2016-006

Attached is a memo fromCity Engineering Timothy Lodge regarding the alley reconstruction special improvement district 2016-006 which was considered on September 5, 2017 and ultimately referredto the October 2, 2017 meeting. As indicated by Mr. Lodge, the property owners affected by the reconstruction of the alley between W. Front Street and Third Street will cover half of the cost.

Therefore, rather than proceeding with the special improvement district, it is recommended that the City enter into contract with the property owners forthe reconstruction of the alley.

I recommend the following motion (5 affirmative votes required):

that the Mayor and City Clerk execute a change order to the contract with Eimers Crane and Dozer (originally authorized April 7, 2017) for2017 Park Street Streetscape Project in the amount of $27,614, more or less, to include contract items 800-807 forreconstruction of the alley between W. Front Street and Third Street, such change order subject to approval as to its substance by the City Manager and its form by the City Attorney, with funds available in the Special Assessment Fund, and further

Motion continued on the nextpage City Commission Page 2 Special Improvement District 2016-006

that the Mayor and City Clerk execute contracts with 918 W. Front, LLC in the amount of $10,341.45, or 70 °/o, Domazy Marketing, LLC in the amount of $2,216.03, or 15°/o, and Thomas and Jennifer Gretzmacher in the amount of $2,216.03, or 15°/o of a total half amount of $29,547 to reconstruct the alley between W. Front Street and Third Street, such contracts subject to approval as to its substance by the City Manager and its form by the City Attorney.

SUBJECT: SID 2016-006 - Reconstruction of Paved Alley between West Front Street and Third Street

At the September 5, 2017 City Commission meeting this item was referred to the October 2, 2017 because of several items that needed clarification. Since that time, we have discussed the SID with the property owners and are unable to proceed with the formalized SID process. The main issue is the equity of the cost of the improvement amongst the property owners.

Fortunately we have resolved the equity issue as one of the property owners has agreed to pay for 70% of the property owner share and the other property owner has agreed to pay the other 30% (15% for each of the two parcels they own). Therefore, it is recommended that the proper City officials be authorized to execute contracts with individual property owners for the work as follows:

Address Amount

918 West Front Street (70%) $10,341.45 912 West Front Street (15%) $ 2,216.03 911 Third Street ( 15%) $ 2,216.03

The property owners will pay for one half of the cost of the project including engineering which is estimated to be $29,547.00. They will pay the City the aforementioned amount plus an interest rate as established by City Commission Policy over a ten year period.

Furthermore, we recommend that the proper City officials be authorized to execute a change order to the existing contract with Elmer's for the 2017 Park Street Streetscape Project to add contract items 800 to 807 to their contract in the amount of $27,614.00, more or less for the alley reconstruction. Funds are available in the Special Assessment Fund for this work. KEY W BID LOCATION ~ NUMBER

SUBJECT: CITY ATTORNEY' S MEDICAL LEAVE - SPECIAL CITY ATTORNEY SERVICES

Attached is a memo from City Attorney Lauren Trible-Laucht recommending a contract with Sondee, Racine and Doren, for Karrie Zeits to provide Special City Attorney Services during the City Attorney's upcoming medical leave. Ms. Zeits is the immediate predecessor of the City Attorney; and as mentioned by the City Attorney, she has a high degree of familiarity with city operations and issues.

I recommend the following motion (5 affirmative votes required): that the Mayor and City Clerk execute a professional services agreement with Sondee Racine and Doren for Karrie A. Zeits to provide Special City Attorney Services, as recommended by the City Attorney pursuant to City Charter Section 47, at the rate of $2,000 per week for an average of 18 hours per week (with telephone consultations not counted against the average), with hours in excess of 18 hours per week over the period of actual engagement at the rate of $120 per hour, for up to eight weeks, such agreement subject to approval as to its substance by the City Manager and its form by the City Attorney, with funds to come from the City Attorney Department Budget.

FROM: Lauren Trible-Laucht, City Attorney~

DATE: September 25, 2017

SUBJECT: Contract for Attorney Services

As you are aware, I am planning to be out for medical leave around the middle of January. As I previously reported, I have discussed with former City Attorney, Karrie Zeits her availability to cover the duties of this Office during that time and she has indicated that she is willing to do so as she did the last time I was out on medical leave. This approach has the advantage of engaging an individual with a high level of familiarity with City operations and issues, which will hopefully minimize any disruption in services.

The terms proposed are the same as the arrangement that the City entered into when I last had a medical leave. They are the following: $2000 per week for an average of 18 hours per week of legal services. This would include office hours to be held at the Governmental Center to allow for consultation on any issue that staff or the Commission requires of legal counsel; and attendance at City Commission meetings. The rest of the time Ms. Zeits would be "on call" and phone consultations would not be counted against the average of 18 hours per week. At the end of the term of the agreement Ms. Zeits would "true up" the amount of time spent and if the amount of hours exceeded 18 per week on average, she would bill the excess at $120 per hour. Should an unanticipated matter arise which will require a substantial amount of extra time that would of course be discussed and arranged through the City Manager's office in order to keep a handle on overall legal costs.

During the time I am out short term disability insurance will be applied to my pay. Charter Section 4 7 provides upon recommendation of the City Attorney, the City Commission may retain additional legal counsel. I recommend the City Commission approve an agreement for legal services with Sondee, Racine & Doren, PLC for attorney services to be carried out my Ms. Zeits as described above.

Please let me know if you have questions or would like to discuss this matter further.

Attached is a memo from Director of Municipal Utilities Arthur Krueger regarding the need for construction engineering services relating to the installation of the recently approved two-million gallon water reservoir at the Barlow Reservoir Site. As indicated by Mr. Krueger, he recommends working with Prein & Newhof as they have been involved since the beginning of this project.

I recommend the following motion (5 affirmative votes required):

that the competitive bidding process be waived and that the Mayor and City Clerk execute a consultant agreement with Prein & Newhof in the amount of 193,700 for professional construction engineering services as it relates to the 2017 Two-Million Gallon Water Reservoir Project, such agreement subject to approval as to its substance by the City Manager and its form by the City Attorney, with funds available in the Water Fund.

FROM: Art Krueger, Director of Municipal Utilities

DATE: September 25, 2017

SUBJECT: Construction Engineering Services for the Additional 2 Million Gallon (2 MG) Reservoir at the Barlow Reservoir Site

In October 2016, the City Commission approved an agreement with Prein & Newhof, our engineering consultant, for design engineering and bidding services for the construction of a new two million gallon potable water reservoir just east of our existing four million gallon Barlow Reservoir on LaFranier Road just south of the City Limits. Then recently on September 5, 2017 the City Commission approved the construction contract award to CB&I for $2,419,000.00 more or less for the 2017-18 2 MG Water Reservoir Project (Project # 1012-17-CIP). Construction of the new 2 MG reservoir will be starting in a few weeks with a target completion date of October 2018.

For this construction phase, it is critical and in the City's best interest to have a qualified firm on board to closely monitor and enforce that the construction contractor (CB&I) meets or exceeds the intent of the project design plans and technical specifications. Other construction engineering scope of work tasks include:

• Attend Preconstruction Meeting and monthly progress meetings • Respond to contractor Requests for Information (RFl's) • Construction Project Administration including review of Applications for Payment and processing Change Orders • Onsite observation of subgrade preparation activities and soil compaction testing • Onsite field construction observation of concrete foundation reinforcement and concrete placement • Coordinate onsite field inspections by Dixon Engineering for steel tank construction including weld inspections, surface preparation and coating inspections. and cathodic protection system inspections • Onsite field construction observation of yard piping • Site visits during live tapping activities and cutting in of final valve (3 days total) • Five (5) days of site visits for start-up activities Memo randrun The City of Traverse City Department of Public Uti lities

September 25, 2017 Additional 2 MG Barlow Reservoir Page 2

• Preliminary and Final Punch Lists • Coordinate with Century A&E (electrical design sub-contractor) to provide construction services for updating the SCADA system, generator, lighting and other electrical engineering activities.

To handle the construction engineering services, I feel it is in our best interest to continue to use Prein & Newhof as our "go to" consulting firm as they have been involved since the beginning of this project. Their construction engineering services proposal is for $193,700 which is 8% of the total construction cost; their completed design and bidding services cost was $98,200 which is 4.1 % of the construction cost. Therefore, a total of 12.1% of the construction cost is proposed for complete design, bidding and construction engineering services, which is reasonable for this line of work. I have discussed the funding scenario with Mr. Twietmeyer, City Treasurer, and he indicated there is adequate funding available for this necessary construction engineering services contract for the new 2 MG reservoir at the Barlow Reservoir site.

Please request City Commission approval to waive the competitive bid process and to enter into an agreement for professional Construction Engineering Services for a not-to-exceed (NTE) total of $193,700.00 with Prein & Newhof for construction of the 2017 Two Million Gallon Water Reservoir Project with funds available in the Water Fund.

I recommend the following motion (5 affirmative votes required): that the competitive bidding process be waived and that the City Manager be authorized to issue a service order to PK Contracting in the amount of $74,404, more or less, using the unit prices per location provided herein, with funds available in the Traffic Calming Fund except for locations 4 & 10 which will be expensed into the Street Maintenance Budget.

DATE: September 25, 2017

SUBJECT: 2017 Traffic Calming Pavement Marking Project

The Planning, Engineering and Street Departments have implemented traffic calming with the use of pavement markings over the past few years. We have monitored the locations and because the normal paint application wears off during the winter season we are recommending that the pavement markings be recessed for the 11 locations shown on the attached map. The marking is primarily shoulder striping and/or bike lanes on the various routes. We have noted positive impacts with these markings. Locations 4 and 10 are for aligning vehicular travel lanes.

Location 7 is the contra flow bike lane on yth Street. We have been monitoring this location and have not found concerns that would warrant its removal or alteration. Two concerns that have been expressed are for the loss of street parking for the residents (and blocking the contra flow lane by parked vehicles) and intersection capacity issues. The conflicts with parking are rare and there is enough space to navigate through the location. The capacity issue is related to the closure of West Front Street for construction which is scheduled to be completed by October 20. We will be removing the delineators for the winter and strongly recommend the recessed markings in this location.

Because there is only one contractor who performs this type of work, we solicited pricing from PK Contracting with the intent to complete the work this year. Their cost for the 11 locations we have identified is $74,404 more or less using the. units cost per location on the attached proposal. We initially estimated the cost to be $86,941 based on our historic unit prices.

Therefore, it is recommended that this work be awarded to PK Contracting and that the proper City officials be authorized to execute a service order with the unit prices per location, in the amount of $74,404, more or less, with funds therefore available in the Traffic Calming Project in the Capital Projects Fund except for locations 4 & 10 ($8,603) which will be expensed into the Street Department Budget.

State Trunk line, and city sidewalks, including the downtown area, snow removal is handled a little differently downtown than in the rest of the city. Jn the core downtown area, including Front Street and State Street, snow build up would block the parking lanes and prevent the public from accessing both metered parking and store entrances. Snow is regularly hauled away from the sidewalks, streets, and close range parking lots to ensure accessibility. This activity typically transpires from 12:00a.m. until completion. during any significant snowfall of greater than two inches of snow. Snow removal on the sidewalks usually starts first, the contractor pushes or blows the snow into the parking area of the street. On small snow events. City crew will use loaders with snow pushers to clear the streets and move the snow to designated parking lots. During larger snow events the contractor provides road graders and moves the snow to the center of the street. Then city personnel use a large loader with snow blower and loads the snow into lead trucks supplied by the contractor. This snow is hauled to City snow dump locations. Simultaneously, public metered parking lots in the downtown area are plowed, City Parks Department crews plow the lots that can accommodate stored snow to be hauled by city crews after the snow event has subsided. The Contractor plows the parking lots where snow cannot be stored, and hauls the snow away from the immediate area. The Contractor works closely with the City Street Department to quickly remove excess snow from the immediate downtown area. Meanwhile City Street Crews and City equipment are dispatched to plow snow on the 76 miles of city streets, 25 miles of public alleys, 72 miles of city sidewalk, and 4.6 miles of bike paths in the city. Contracting snow hauling in the core downtown areas ensures that the downtown areas will continue to be open for business while the City Street Department plows, sands and protects the rest of the City during a snow event. The City Street Department oversees when and to what extent a Contractor is called in for snow removal.

Last September, 20 16 we went out for bid for snow plowing, hauling, equipment and services. The bid was for one year with option of renewal for two additional years if the price remains the same. Molon Excavating, Inc. was low bidder and was awarded the service order. Molon Excavating Inc. was recently contacted and they agreed to keep their 2016/20] 7 prices the same for the 20l7/2018 winter maintenance season. ( acceptance letter attached) Please see bid prices to fo!Iow.

Molon Excavating, Inc. bid the following for snow hauling and plowing equipment:

Lead Trucks $115.00 per hour Road Grader $130.00 per hour Pickup w/ Plow $ 85.00 per hour Sander with material w/50/50 mix, 5 yard $480.00 per hour Sander with material w/ 50/50 mix, 10 yard $800.00 per hour Sander with material w/straight sand, "Garland Street". Pickup size sander. 1.5 yard $120.00 per hour 4.5 yard $100.00 per hour Loaders 938 $13 5. 00 per hour Loader 950 $135.00 per hour Sidewalk Equipment $180.00 per hour

Bid is calculated by adding the hour rate for the equipment/material needed.

Molon Excavating Inc. has worked for the City for numerous years and has proven to be very professional and prompt in the service they have provided for the City during winter snow events.

I recommend extending Molon Excavating Inc. service order for the 2017/2018 v,inter season at their 2016/2017 bid prices with option of renewal for one more year if the price remains the same and the work remains satisfactory. Money is budgeted in various Street and Auto parking maintenance accounts for this service.

101-441-80l.OO 585-585-801.00 202-202-801 .00

Will you kindly request the City Commission support and approve to extend the service order to Molon Excavating Inc. for the 2017/2018 winter season at their 2016/2017 bid prices. With option of renewal for one more additional year if the price remains the same and the service remains satisfactory. The City of Traverse City Communication to the City Commission

· SUBJECT: Contra-Flow Bike Lane at yth and Division Street Intersection Follow-Up Report following Implementation

You have requested our evaluation of a contra-flow bike lane at the yth Street and Division Street intersection which was installed in late June and early July. We conducted a 24 hour per day field study using a video recording device for three days, July 7 to the 10 and found no instances of wrong way driving, occasional use of both the sidewalk and bike lane by bikes and occasional blockage of the contra-flow bike lane during deliveries.

We have been periodically monitoring this location and have not found concerns th?t would warrant its removal or alteration. Reports are posted on the city's web site at:

http://www.traversecitymi.gov/downloads/7th_st_btw_division_st_maple_st_combined_report.pdf

Two concerns that have been expressed are for the loss of street parking for the residents (and blocking the contra-flow lane by parked vehicles) and intersection capacity issues. The conflicts with parking are rare and there is enough space to navigate through the location. The capacity issue is related to the closure of West Front Street for construction which will is scheduled to be completed by October 20.

We recommend continuing to allow the contra-flow for bicycles and installation of more durable marking than was installed for the trial. Furthermore, we will be removing the delineators for the winter which increases the need for the recessed markings in this location.

A request was submitted to the City Clerk's office and forwarded to the Assessing Department on July 5, 2017, received from Matt Soltysiak, requesting to change the street name from Barlow Street to "Water Street," for the section running north of Boyd Street, to the water's edge, on behalf of property owners addressed off Barlow Street.

DATE: SEPTEMBER 28, 2017

FROM: MARTY COLBURN, CITY MANAGER

SUBJECT: REQUEST FROM COMMISSIONER MICHELE HOWARD - CONS IDERA TION OF REQUEST FROM FERN SPENCE RELATING TO 1430 WAYNE STREET

Attached is a request from Commissioner Howard for the City Commission to consider the request from Fem Spence for the City Commission to modify a deed restriction at 1430 Wayne Street. The deed restriction prohibits excavation or fill " ... under, in, around or on the water main easement." Ms. Spence is requesting clarification or modification of the purpose of "around" with respect to the easement.

This property, sold by the city, has a complex history of litigation. (Also, for your information, in October 2016, Ms. Spence requested that the Commission remove the pedestrian deed restriction from the property; the Commission denied that request.) If the City Commission wishes to consider this request, as indicated in the attached email from City Clerk Benjamin Marentette, the Commission could refer it to staff for review and a recommendation. As with other such requests to modify easements, deeds, etc. Ms. Spence would pay a $475 fee for appropriate staff review, which will cover a portion of the associated costs. The following are sample motions:

1. To refer the request to staff for review and a recommendation:

that the request from Fern Spence relating to a deed restriction for 1430 Wayne Street, as outlined in her September 18, 2017, communication to be referred to staff for review and recommendation for consideration by the Commission.

2. To deny the request:

-See motion on the following page- City Commission September 28, 201 7 1430 Wayne Street that the request from Fern Spence relating to a deed restriction for 1430 Wayne Street, as outlined in her September 18, 2017, communication, be denied.

Please let me know if I need to do anything else.

Hi Fern,

I wanted to let you know I received your note and outline a path forward so the city can more formally consider your request.

In order to place this item on the agenda, we will need a member (only one is necessary) of the City Commission to sponsor/submit a request to me for this to be considered by the Commission. I've cc'd the City Commission here so they're aware the request may be forthcoming and my response. Here is a link to contact information for the City Commission. The action the Commission could then take, if they so desire, is to adopt a motion directing staff to consider your request and prepare a report back to the Commission. Provided they do that, we would then have you complete this form along with a $475 fee which is to help offset staff expenses in reviewing the request and providing a report to the Commission.

I am writing to request a public hearing in order to change language on the deed for 1430 Wayne Street.

I contacted Dave Weston and Penny Hill who directed me to request a public hearing in order to ask The City Commission to clarify vague language on this property's deed.

When the City originally sold the lot to Keith and Sally Dykhuis the deed's paragraph 2, pg.1 final sentence was written to protect the lot's water main. The final sentence of paragraph 2 potentially prevents construction excavation because of the word "around ." Last week we lost a potential purchaser/home builder for the lot because Traverse City State Bank would not provide them with financing fearing litigation, should construction excavation be too close to the easement.

If you recall my husband and I were denied a request to eliminate a pedestrian restriction on this land. We tried to establish our property as a public pocket park/trail, but failed. We complied with the city's and an adjacent, litigious neighbor's desire for a home to be built on the lot. We offered the land for sale to a couple who've wanted to build a home on this land for many years. They've had difficulty navigating around utility easements, and the wording around the water main easement broke the deal.

We need to clear up the language on this deed paragraph #2 . We will list the property for sale again, but who will buy the land if they cannot get financing from a bank due to concerns about violating a deed requirement that states "around?" What does "around" mean? Please consider my request to present this to the City Commission. Thank you , Fern Spence 231-409-4960

Dear Benjamin:

As a local business woman and an engaged citizen of our community I'd like to be considered for an appointed committee position. I know that our community is made better by the volunteer involvement of the people living here and I'd like to offer my services. I was fortunate enough to have grown up in Traverse City and to have been able to work in the community and raise my own children here. I've volunteered in multiple ways throughout the community, non-profits, schools, churches, ski clubs, every after school program conceivable. Now that my kids are grown, I have time once again to volunteer to help this area be its best.

With over 13 years of Real Estate experience I feel that my talents.could be used on the DOA, Brownfield Redevelopment Authority, the Housing Commission, Planning Commission or as well with my love sailing, the Coast Guard Committee. I will however, serve where ever I am needed.

Attached please find my resume, and don't hesitate to contact me with questions.

My objective is to be a resident member of the Traverse City ODA. Having watched the downtown become a year round destination for tourists and locals, t have been become more interested in its activities on a daily basis. Also being a business owner on East 8"' Street, tam actively involved in our downtown businesses doing well and working with the citizens in our community.

My background is the service industry which is what downtown businesses are, therefore, making me an excellent choice for this position. Residing in the M idtown Condos a\so puts me in direct contact with the workings of the DOA. I am able to look at both perspectives of development ,n the downtown area, as a business owner and citizen.

I was a restaurant owner in Oakland, CA from 1988 to 1998 and during that time I worked extensively with AIDS organizations in the community, helping with fundraising and donating food on a weekly basis. I have always been active in the community where I have lived and would like to offer my organizational skills and business knowledge to helping downtown Traverse City.

In addition, I feel having Jived abroad for many years has opened my vision and taught me how other communities deal with these same issues we a\l have: working and living together.

I am free to meet any time if you so desire. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you. 9'- Janene Silverman 245 C Lake Ave Traverse City 49684 231-632-7916 [email protected] RECEIVED

RE: City of Traverse City Application to Become Involved.

I view Traverse City as a municipality that is on the cusp of continued greatness with the constant connectivity between stakeholder groups and the vast community input that has gone into our city's plans and studies. I see the corridors master plan being a platform for how our city will be shaped in the future in terms of street-design and walkability, which will hopefully continue to foster increased density and a high quality of life. I would like to play a role in continuing to make our city a great place to live, work, play and prosper.

I believe my knowledge as an urban planner working with area stakeholders and being a champion of an Open Government where citizens can interact and understand local government functions on an informal setting, will be beneficial to our boards. I envision our boards & commissions having more public input sessions, by bringing the government closer to the people. This can be accomplished through after-hour forums held at coffee shops, local breweries, parks and other locations in the city where citizens are gathered.

I was the Chair of my congregation's task-force that was tasked with bringing a renewed sense of membership and community to the Bethlehem Lutheran Church. This chairmanship illustrated to me the importance of interacting with the stakeholders and reinforcing the notion that all voices, whether they agree with my viewpoint or not, are important in the public input process.

As a recent first-time homebuyer in the south side of the Traverse Heights neighborhood, I would like to see continued outreach and involvement from our neighborhoods for public improvement projects, and I can be an asset to the city in accomplishing that goal.

Sincerely,

Tyler Bevier 121 0 Santo Street Tyler Traverse City, Ml, 49686 Tele: 248-877-1738 Bevier Email: [email protected]

Benjamin Marentette, City Clerk JAN 24 2017 City of Traverse City 400 Boardman A venue CITY OF TRAVERSE CITY CITY CLERKS OFFICE Traverse City, MI 49684

Dear Mr. Marentette:

Please accept this letter, along with the attached application, as formal application to fill vacancies on citizen boards. I have a passion for this city and for providing the highest quality of life to our residents and guests. The boards are of particular interest to me because of the significant role that play in solving the challenges that we collectively face in the 21 " century. That role closely mirrors my commitment to ensuring that the values and character of Traverse City are ensured for generations to come. It would be an honor to serve in a role that would allow me to bring my skills and dispositions to bear on that considerable responsibility.

You will no doubt note from my enclosed resume that I have extensive experience and expertise in the field of education. However, it is my background in understanding and implementing policy with attention to the implications for those that it affects that would be an ideal skillset to bring to citizen boards. I also would like to draw your attention to my previous board experience, having provided leadership on the board of the Great Lakes Children's Museum for over three years and currently as a Trustee on the Board of Education for The Greenspire School. In both of those board experiences I have demonstrated a commitment to organizational security through serving on numerous committees, working with stakeholders, and custodian to the fiduciary accountabilities of Trustees. The experiences I have had there have prepared me for both the responsibilities and the challenges of serving on a public board, as well as for working with colleagues toward a shared vision of supporting the city we call home. These, along with the life experiences that I've had, position me to assume a role on city boards.

Thank you for your consideration for this unique opportunity. In the meantime should you have any questions, comments, or should require any other materials, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Sincerely,

On Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 10:43 AM, Sanctuary Handcrafted Goods wrote: Good morning, Ben and Jim.

I would like to update my original ODA application with this cover letter, if possible. I understand there are two appointments coming up, and I would like to be considered for one of these board positions.

Here, you will find my biography, resume, and writing samples for consideration of the Downtown Development Authority position. I have been a strong proponent of the DOA since moving into the City from the Old Mission Peninsula nearly ten years ago, and from my past columns in the Northern Express, you will see that I have a great understanding of issues ranging from civic engagement and civil discourse to tax increment financing and community development.

I have been a supporter of new urbanism and smart growth, and have looked at our downtown as a shining example of development that is economically prosperous, socially equitable, and environmentally sustainable. My goal is to maintain the character of the district, while working to ensure that it continues to attract people wishing to live, work and play in Traverse City.

For two-thirds of my adult life, I have been an entrepreneur/ business owner and I hope to bring this unique experience to the board - especially the few years I spent as the Executive Director of St. Joseph Today, a 350-member promotional organization for the City of St. Joseph.

Early in my professional career, I became interested and involved with non-profit development and organizational management, and since that time, I have volunteered thousands of hours to help establish several start-ups including the Southwest Michigan Events Coalition and the Women's Resource Center in St. Joseph, and the Great Lakes Children's Museum and The Children's House Holiday Art Market here in Traverse City. I served on the board of the Traverse Area Arts Council, and have also been involved with the massive restructuring of Safe Harbor and its upcoming move into a permanent facility.

I also co-founded Street Advocate, an online community of people who care about homelessness and actively work to educate the public and promote solutions for ending it. Out of that experience, I served on the advisory board of Speak Up, a magazine created and sold by those who are vulnerably housed.

Currently, I serve as Chair of the Traverse City Arts Commission, Membership Co-chair for Traverse City chapter of Impact 100, and Fundraising Chair for Safe Harbor of Grand Traverse, Inc.

Even though one may not always agree with my political views, I believe it is understood that my positions are nonetheless fair and well-researched. I promise to bring that same thoughtful approach to the DOA.

One last note: I hope that if I am not selected to serve, you will consider another woman, which would increase our current representation of just twenty-five percent.

D1 DDA Board

Dear Sir or Kaclalla

This letter is to express llJ interest in joining the Board ot the Traverse Cit7 Downtown Development Au:thorit7.

I am interested in the position tor multiple reasons. I have owned and operated a business in downtown Traverse Cit7 tor tour 7ears now, so I have firsthand experience ot how positive a torae the DDA can be. M7 business is located in the Warehouse District. fhis up-and-coming area has a distinctive perspective and personalit7, which I think I can represent oreativel7 and constructivel7.

M7 business is an extension of llJ own profound comaJ.tllent to cOllllUnit7-building. We regularl7 host nonprofit events and benefits and we contribute sipitioant mone7 and goods in support of collllUllity organizations. We support arts and culture b7 offering free live ausic over 100 nights ever1 7ear. We support local suppliers b7 preference, and we attempt to embody oOIIIIWlit7-spirite4ness in all of our business decision-making.

Over the last 25 1ears I have founded, co-founded, assisted with the start-up of, served on the board of, or acted as executive in ll8llJ businesses and nonprofits in 11811J diverse fields. These includes online advooaoJ and tu.ndraising, technologJ licensing, luxurJ residential development, disaster response, land conservation,

------·-- marketing, senior housing developaent, hotels and restaurants, and (o:t course) brewing. As 7ou can see, I aa energetic and adaptable.

I got llJ B.A. (American Studies) at Willialls College in Massachusetts, and llJ J .D. at Lewis & Clark Law School in Portland, Orqon ( with an eapbasis on Intellectual Propert7). I believe •1 pro:teesional experience, llJ current business situation, and llJ legal education would 118ke ae a valuable and help:tul voice on the DDA Board.

To Whom It May Concern: CITY OF TRAVERSE CITY CITY CLERKS OFFICE

I have witnessed in recent years a new dynamic following the re-establishment of the Riverview Terrace Residents Council. I wish to continue reporting the future progress of this development as well as any pertinent to any property the TCHC administers. The Traverse City Housing Commission is embarking on an exciting endeavor of developing new low income housing within the area and I would like to play an active role in securing this.

I believe I can benefit the City by my bringing to the table a perspective based on my life experience as a low income person who understands the real concerns of this population. As a volunteer member of the Peer Recovery Council at Northern Michigan Substance Abuse Services, I have interfaced with shareholders in communities throughout Northern Michigan. We address innovative outcomes for problems as they may impact public health issues, around recovery from substance use disorder where creating a path to available housing is probably the greatest challenge.

I support any initiative that promotes peace, culture and education, be it in the family or as an individual. I am also certified by the State of Michigan as a Certified Peer Recovery Mentor. I am an avid reader and therefore can process volumes of information. When making decisions, I remain open and impartial.

Dear Benjamin:

As a local business woman and an engaged. citizen of our community I'd like to be considered for an appointed committee position. I know that our community is made better by the volunteer involvement of the people living here and I'd like to offer my services. I was fortunate enough to have grown up in Traverse City and to have been able to work in the community and raise my own children here. I've volunteered In multiple ways throughout the community, non-profits, schools, churches, ski clubs, every after school program conceivable. Now that my kids are grown, I have time once again to volunteer to help this area be its best.

With over 13 years of Real Estate experience I feel that my talents .could be used on the ODA, Brownfield Redevelopment Authority, the Housing Commission, Planning Commission or as well with my love sailing, the Coast Guard Committee. I will however, serve where ever I am needed.

Attached please find my resume, and don't hesitate to contact me with questions.

Sincerely,

As the position of Resident Member of the TCHC will be open as of November of this year, please consider this my expressed interest in serving on the Housing Commission Board.

I have had the opportunity to view first hand housing in all levels of affordability. I feel I can be of service to the city as I have been involved in structuring and coordinating organizations in a cohesive plan as recognized by the State of Michigan

I have watched closely the struggles of Traverse to understand the scope of housing to meet the needs and jump the political hurdles. I appreciate the work needed to develop and fund a workable Housing Authority and a Board of Directors comprised of all local housing organizations. I find this is a challenging and exciting time for Traverse City and would like to be a part of the endeavor.

Thank you for your consideration

To whom it may concern, My name is Judy Hartlep and I am a resident at the Boyne City Housing Commission Public Housing in Boyne City, Ml. I am writing in regards to Priscilla Townsend whom I have had the pleasure and privilege of knowing both on a personal and professional level. We both served on the Boyne City Resident Council in several capacities and also on the Housing Commission Board both as Secretary at different times. Priscilla is a very educated and well informed individual on all levels of Public Housing and HUD rulings. She is a person that if she does not know the answer she will not stop until she finds it. A very motivated, determined individual. I cannot say enough good things about Priscilla and feel that she would be an exemplary member on which ever committees she would serve on. When she moved to the Riverview Apartment it was our loss and your gain.

Sincerely,

To whom it may concern,

I have known Priscilla Townsend for approximately four years and feel strongly that she has been very valuable to CAP Services and me. CAP decided to build a 46 unit Senior Village in Adams and Priscilla said she would be interested in taking on light duty maintenance at the Village and has been an asset ever since.

Priscilla has been very dependable and has always gone out of her way to make sure the Village is being maintained to a high standard. She had a very good background in the building industry; she always had a good sense for trouble shooting. She also worked with the venders to make sure they were doing their part. Priscilla was very well respected by the tenants and went out of her way to help them and make sure they were well taken care of.

I would highly recommend Priscilla based on my experience with her as an employee. She is a dependable, hard working, responsible, and caring person.

If you would like to contact me for any another information, please do not hesitate to call me at 715-343-7138 or email me at [email protected].

RE: Application for Involvement

Dear Mr. Marentette:

I write to submit my Application to Become Involved in the City of Traverse City. Specifically, I am applying for a seat on one of the following commissions: 1) Parks & Recreation; 2) Housing; or 3) Planning. I was born and raised in Traverse City, and moved back to the City this summer so that my young daughters could grow up in this wonderful community. I would be honored to be part of a board or committee that contributes towards maintaining and improving the quality of life for the people who live here.

I believe my appointment would benefit the City in a number of ways. First, I have a deep and abiding love for this community, and I am excited by the prospect of being able to contribute, even in modest ways, to the community's continued growth and enhancement. Second, I believe that the analytical and problem-solving skills that I have developed as an environmental attorney would be an asset to the City. As an attorney, I regularly am tasked with assessing and developing practical and cost-effective solutions to challenging problems. I would use these san1e skills towards tackling issues faced by the City.

I also have a long and varied history of volunteer work. I lived in Chicago prior to my recent return home to Traverse City, where I provided pro bono legal services to low-income and/or indigent clients on various matters. I also served on the Executive Council for the Young Lawyers Section of the Chicago Bar Association and coordinated monthly legal education and networking activities for our members. Additionally, before I became an attorney, I served for two years as a Peace Corps Volunteer in the Republic of Panama. In that role, I worked with various rural communities to plan and build aqueducts and sanitary systems, and to develop community education programs related to public and environmental health. Thanks to my experience as a Peace Corps Volunteer, I understand the various ways in which community input and buy-in are necessary for a local initiative to be successful.

I would be honored to have the opportunity to apply my skills and experience toward a volunteer position with the City. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or need additional information in connection with my application.

Mr. Benjamin C. Marentette City Clerk, 400 Boardman A venue, Traverse City, Michigan 49684

Dear Mr. Marentette:

I welcome the appointment of either the Planning or Housing Committee to serve as a growing leader in a growing community. The position would serve as the platform to lead my community and peers to an attainable and sustainable future within Traverse City.

Traverse City will continue to flourish with exponential growth through infinite opportunities. The need to solidify the plan for cost effective, sustainable, and a thriving living environment is at the forefront of my future and the future of many ofmy peers. Multifaceted challenges continue to present themselves to all citizens, but especially to the growing millennial population. Even though this wonderful city offers the accommodating basics that suffice everyday life, it presents the complexity of a common need that helps sustain a thriving future. The need to have quiet professional space for the working professionals, to the joyous neighborhoods where the leaders of tomorrow grow and stay safe, to the relaxing future of the retirees, are all spaces needed to compromise the wonderful city.

I look forward to expand the horizon with the serving opportunity to extend to the entire community similar to my volunteerism within my church community and Munson Healthcare. My interactions through my volunteer and professional careers will compliment connecting with various audiences through multifaceted mediums.

I am excited for the challenge of generating ideas and developing the plans on behalf of my fellow citizens to a promising future for the wonderful place we call home, Traverse City.

Dear Mayor Carruthers, Mayor Pro Tern Howe, and Commissioners:

Endosed you will find my completed Application to Become Involved as well as a copy of my resume. 1 am requesting to be considered for any current or future vacancies on the Traverse City Housing Commission, Traverse City Human Rights Commission, anil/ or the Traverse City Parks and Recreation Commis.,ion. At the request of the City Commission, I would consider serving on other Boards or Committee., where the Commission believes my skills might be of value .

I am applying for a scat on the previously listed commissions because I believe my set of skills would prove to be very bencflcial in discussions of issues that would come in front of these various commissions. After applying for the vacancy on the City Commission, I realized I do have a lot of skills that would help encourage more input from our community members and, perhaps, resolve some conflict before it rises to the level of being disruptive to the·work of the City.

Over the last 26 years I have been very invoh·e

• Over 40 presentations at the local and state levels regarding domestic and sexual violence, legal issues facing survivors of domestic and sexual violence, volunteerism, collaboration, diversity, and mediation; • Worked with, trained, and supervision of employees, volunteers, and interns; • Past Board member of the Michigan Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence (2002-2005) including as a member of the Executive Committee and member and Chair of the Michigan Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence LBGT and Allies Task Force; • Past Board member of the Michigan League for Human Services n/k/a Michigan League for Public Policy; • State of Michigan Foster Care Review Board Volunteer, Board #27 (2012-2016) including serving as Chair of the Board (201S-20t6); • Member ofNALS, the association for legal professionals, NALS of Michigan, and the Grand Traverse Area Legal Professionals (1996-Present); • Past Board member of the Grand Traverse Area Legal Professionals including as a member of the Executive Committee; ,-

A~ a result of my work with survivors of domestic and sexual violence, I was honored with the Liberty Bell Award by the Grand Tr:iverse Leelanau Antrim Bar Association in 2003 . The award recogr1izes outstanding service performed by a non-lawyer citizen who has given their time and energy to strengthen the efTe<.tivencss of the American system of freedom under law . Such service may include activities which encourage greater respect for the law in the.courts or stimulate the deeper sense of individual responsibility to the end that citizens recognize their duties as well as the_ir rights as it relates to the legal system .

In 201 SI was honored to receive the Legal Professional of the Year presented by the Grand Traverse Arca Legal Professionals (GTALP) . Each year, members arc nominated hy their boss or Board who write an anonymous letter outlining what they believe sets the member apart from others. The letters arc then sent to a neighboring chapter of NALS of Michigan, where a committee reads and judges them with all names removed. The award is a recognition of the members service to their community, the GT ALP, and the members of the local organization.

Because of my education, skills, and work/ volunteer experience, I am able to read and understand a budget, work well individually and in groups, ask questions, speak up when there might be other positions to consider, and am willing to listen to ideas and opinions that may not be popular but arc worth considering or may contain important information to the decision at hand. I would commit to hearing the thoughts and ideas of other committee members and the community and take all a"ailahle information into consideration before voting on or referring something to the City Commission. I also would commit to articulating my decision as much as would be allowed and always maintaining the best interests of the City as my guide.

I look forward to serving as the Mayor and the City Commission secs fit.

1 am applying to the City for the position of Resident Housing Commissioner. I believe my knowledge and experience as a former Adult Foster Care Administrator will be a positive addition to the counsel. Having experience with both the elderly and adults with special needs, will help give insight to the housing needs of both groups living together in the Riverside Terrace community. I al so worked putting together the required documentation for the Adult Foster Care homes licensing. I have spent many years volunteering within the public and private school systems to raise funds for sports and various other school activities. As well, I have worked within multiple fund raising groups to gain funds for the Fr. Fred Foundation as well as other organizations. Recently I volunteered within the RVRC to supply surplus food for those in need living in our community.

To whom it may concern:

I learned of the vacancy left by Patricia Nugent on the Human Rights Commission recently, and wanted to update my application with a summary of relevant experience. Pat was an ally, and I enjoyed working with her on the Homeless Bill of Rights and other issues related to homelessness in our community. She will be missed.

Early in my professional career, I became involved with non-profit development and organizational management, and since that time, I have volunteered thousands of hours to help establish several start-ups including the Southwest Michigan Events Coalition, the Women's Resource Center in St. Joseph, and the Great Lakes Children's Museum here in Traverse City.

I have served on the board of the Traverse Area Arts Council and I was on the advisory board of Speak Up, a magazine created and sold by those who are vulnerably housed. In 2012, I co-founded Street Advocate, an online community of people who care about homelessness and actively work to educate the public and promote solutions for ending it.

Currently, I serve as Chair of the Traverse City Arts Commission and Membership Co-chair for the newly-formed Traverse City chapter of Impact 100. I am also a board member and Civil Rights Liaison for Woman2Woman TC , a local group united to protect human rights, ensure civil liberties, preserve the influence of evidence and reason , and affect public policy through the election of candidates who advocate for a progressive agenda.

The volunteer work for which I am most proud is with Safe Harbor of Grand Traverse, Inc. Since 2012, I have been a fierce advocate for people experiencing homelessness in our region, and have worked with a steering committee of 24 churches and our board of directors to create a permanent emergency in Traverse City. As fundraising chair, I have managed a capital campaign to raise 1.75 million dollars for the purchase, renovation and operation of the shelter. In addition, I have worked with partners in the Continuum of Care to include a year-round Housing and Human Services Resource Center as part of the shelter. It will be open in November.

Women's issues and gender equality have also been close to my heart. From my work to establish a Women's Resource Center hotline for victims of domestic violence, to my involvement in groups like Woman2Woman, mAIDens of Michigan, and Impact 100, I have always focused on empowering women and encouraging them to reach their full potential.

Since 2014, I have contributed a regular opinion column in the Northern Express and I have written on topics of equal representation in political leadership, peaceful protest in the women's movement, getting involved in our community, spending money in accordance with our personal values. maintaining a civil discourse, our attitudes about the poor, and the sexist naming of female high school sports teams. I publish a blog called "A Strong Personality" (www.astrongpersonality.blogspot.com) as a way to express my current frustration , but also my ultimate hope that all members of our society can achieve equality in the future.

I look forward to interviewing with you on September 25th.

Sincerely, Christie Minervini

Benjamin C. Marentette City Clerk 400 Boardman Avenue Traverse City, Ml 49684

Dear Mr. Marentette:

I am respectfully applying for a position on the Traverse City Human Rights Commission. I am compassionate about the need for all people to be treated with respect and dignity, to receive validation for their inherent value, and to have a voice that is acknowledge and appreciated. My extensive community involvement as a volunteer would, I believe, be helpful in the discussions and potential recommendations that may occur during the Human Rights Commission meetings. I try to continue to learn as much as I can, about as many issues as I can, during the meetings that I attend. Community outreach and subsequent education/understanding is always my goal. After retiring in June of 2014, after thirty-seven years, from Traverse Bay Intermediate School District as a Special Education Teacher and Teacher Consultant, my hope was to continue to be able to make a difference. This is what drives me in my volunteer work in the community. It would be wonderful if I could utilize my community committee knowledge to help address the issues facing the Human Rights Commission. I would always give my best effort, attend meetings, be punctual, and be a team player. In conclusion, I respect what the Human Rights Commission stands for and would consider it a privilege to be a part of such an important mission.

To Whom It May Concern:

By unanimous consent at its May 11 meeting, the sixteen-member Saint Francis Justice and Peace Commission has chosen to recommend to you David Clinton for any open position on the Traverse Qty Human Rights Commission.

Beyond a life-long career as a special education teacher and consultant advocating for students with special needs, Dave continues to express concern for human rights as witnessed by his membership in numerous community organizations, induding Advocates and Leaders for Police and Community Trust (ALPACT), Before During and After Incarceration (BOAi), and our own Saint Francis Justice and Peace Commission (SFJPC).

In addition, Dave tracks many other social issues and participates in several other community groups. He is focused on people and how they are impacted by community structures or policies and is willing to work for solutions that will serve to improve the lives of various members and groups within our community. He is a valued source of information for us about the activities of these groups and how they are addressing the pressing issues of our time.

In short, Dave is a well-informed citizen, positive in his outlook and focus. The Traverse City Human Rights Commission would do well with Dave as a member.

Dear Stephanie,

The purpose of this letter is to formally announce my retirement as of June 30, 2014.

It has been my honor to be a TBAISD employee for my entire career. During this time, I have had the privilege of working with wonderful students, families, and staff. I will miss all of them very much. It is said that an ending is really an opportunity for a new beginning; I believe this to be true. As my new beginning evolves, I pray that it indudes good health for my family and mvself, lots of time for love and laughter, and continued opportunities to make a difference in the world.

I wish to thank everyone at TBAJSO for all they have done for me and continue to do for students, families and staff aaoss the five-county area.

Respectfully,

David dinton

Cc: Carol Greilick David Clinton In appreciation for his 37-year career as Teacher and Consultant for the Traverse Bay Area Intermediate School District's Special Education program.

His insight and vast understanding of special education programming is to be commended. He is admired for his wealth of knowledge regarding student growth and leadership with literacy-based efforts, most recently with Reading Apprenticeship. His ·. calm approach and positive enthusiasm helps to motivate students to their full potential. David's involvement with mentoring teams and coaching individual teachers has built strong relationships with local district personnel and students. His natural ability to connect with students will be missed. Presented in honor of his retirement by the Traverse Bay Area Intermediate School District May 13, 2014 LEADING LIFETIME • LEARNING Our vision: To be the BEST educational system in the world. St. Francis Justice & Peace Commission: Through prayer, education, and action, our mission is to promote the Gospel message of justice and peace in our parish and in our larger community. Accomplishments since our establishment in 2015: • KIVA. We have loaned out close to $5,000 in microloans in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Central America who ask for a hand up and not a hand out. All loans have been repaid. • Higher Ground Coffee. In using only Higher Ground Coffee at our parish, we have supported the cooperatives in Mexico and Central America, coffee farmers who use organic farming methods and come doser to a living wage by banding together. • Heifer International. H.I. is another way we have supported struggling people to become independent by helping with the animal purchases that move them beyond subsistence. • Recycling. We have improved recyding at our parish with more clearly designated bins and procedures in the kitchen. We have trained all principal users on the use of the dishwasher to encourage the use of real dishes instead of paper and Styrofoam products. We are selling re-useable grocery bags to eliminate plastic bags in landfills. • Homelessness. We have focused educational efforts on those experiencing homelessness with a panel discussion (induding the voices of those experiencing homelessness). • Justice for the incarcerated. Another panel discussion with jail ministry providers as presenters has resulted in nine parishioners and others receiving training to secure access and become involved with jail ministry. • Before, During, After and Instead of Incarceration. Another important result of the "Justice for the Incarcerated" effort has been the formation of BDAII (Before, During, After and Instead of Incarceration). This grass-roots effort has already accomplished quite a bit: the revitalization of the jail library, a screening and release process to help inmates succeed after release (mentors, housing, jobs, medical/dental needs, etc.), support for families with Christmas events and camp experiences for children of the incarcerated. We are currently developing an after-care support evening (weekly) for inmates after release. BDAII is also working to sponsor advocacy events to help change community attitudes hoping to change the public mind set and to focus on restorative justice concepts as well as improve recidivism rates. Crisis Intervention that would help secure mental health assistance instead of jailing individuals is another important effort to which the group is striving. • Lenten Book Study. The Saint Francis Justice and Peace Commission has chosen the give-away Christmas books and used them to develop a book study these past two Lenten seasons. The Joy ofthe Gospeland Pope Fmnds: A Living Legacy both had a justice slant to help participants reflect on our faith and on our culture. • Global Warming.

Dear Mayor Carruthers, Mayor Pro Tem Howe, and Commissioners:

Enclosed you will find my completed Application to Become Involved as well as a copy of my resume. I am requesting to be considered for any current or future vacancies on the Traverse City Housing Commission, Traverse City Human Rights Commission, an

Over the last 26 years I ha\'e been very involved in groups and committee.~ at the local and state level that has or had a direct effect on the lives of the residents of Traverse City and the greater Grand T ravcrse Arca. These have included:

• Over 40 presentations at the local and state levels regarding domestic and sexual violence, legal issues facing survivors of domestic ai;id sexual violen.ce, volunteerism, collaboration, diversity, and mediation; • Worked with, trained, and supervision of employees, volunteers, and interns; • Past Board member of the Michigan Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violen~ (2002-2005) including as a member of the Executive Committee and member and Chair of the Michigan Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence LBGTand Allies Task Force; • Past Board member of the Michigan League for Human Services n/k/a Michigan League for Public Policy; • State of Michigan Foster Care Review Board Volunteer, Board #27 (2012-2016) including serving as Chair of the Board (201S-2016); • Member of NALS, the association for legal professionals, NALS of Michigan, and the Grand Traverse Area Legal Professionals (1996-Present); • Past Board member of the Grand Traverse Area Legal Professionals including as a member of the Executive Committee; ------·------

As a result of my work with survivors of domestic and sexual violence, I was honored with the Liberty Bell Award by the Grand Traverse Leelanau Antrim Bar Association in 2003. The award recogr1izes outstanding service performed by a non-lawyer citizen who has given their time and energy to strengthen the dTe<..tivencss of the American system of freedom under law. Such service may include activities which encourage greater respect for the law in the courts or stimulate the deeper sense of individual responsibility to the end that citizcm recognize their duties as well as their rights as it relates to the legal system.

In 201 SI was honored to receive the Legal Professional of the Year presented by th.c Grand Traverse.Area Legal Professionals (GTALP) . Each year, members arc nominated by their boss or Board who write an anonymous letter outlining what they believe sets the member apart from others. The letters arc then scn:t to a neighboring chapter of NALS of Michigan, where a committee reads and judges them with all names removed. The award is a recognition of the members service to their community, the GTALP, and the members of the local organization.

Because of my education, skills, and work/ volunteer experience, I am able to read and understand a budget, work well individually and in groups, ask questions, speak up when there might he other positions to consider, and am willing to listen to ideas and opinions that may not be popular but arc worth considering or may contain important information to the decision at hand. I would commit to hearing the thoughts and ideas of other committee members and the community and take all a,•ailable information into consideration before voting on or referring something to the City Commission. I also would commit to arti<.."Ulating my decision as much as would be allowed and always maintaining the hest interests of the City as my guide.

I look forward to serving as the Mayor and the City Commission secs flt.

Re: Brown Bridge Advisory Committee Application

Dear Sir or Madam:

I first learned about the Brown Bridge Quiet Area as a participant in Leadership Grand Traverse (Spring 2015). Steve Largent's presentation on the Brown Bridge Dam removal project was, without a doubt the highlight of my experience in the program. I am applying to serve as a member of the Brown Bridge Ad\'isory Committee because I want to contribute to the community that I recently began calling home. December 1st marks the one year anniversary of our move from metro Detroit to Traverse City. My husband and J both shared a strong desire to live in northern Michigan, so when I was offered a position at a la\\ firm in town, we didn't hesitate. Not a day goes by that I do not actively reflect on my gratitude for the opportunity to live here. Like most transplants (and natives), one of the most significant motivating factors for choosing to live in Traverse City is the abundance of natural beauty and outdoor activity. I am passionate about environmental preservation and feel particularly drawn to, and intrigued by, the Brown Bridge Quiet Area.

Beyond possessing a passion for The Great Outdoors, l pride myself on being a hardworking, energetic and thoughtful team player. My background in psychology and mediation have provided me with enhanced communication and dispute resolution skills. i\s an attorney, I am well equipped when it comes to researching an issue, particularly in the areas of environmental and zoning law. I eagerly welcome the chance to use my skills, knowledge and energy to serve the city in this meaningful way.

Sincerely,

Caroline N. Gersch

Application (Page 1 of 3) Thursday, November 17, 2016 Good day to you all. I am interested in the vacant Human Rights Commission seat. I am a strong advocate for the rights and dignity of all people. I am currently a TCAPS school bus driver and have been for the past 17 years. I love my position and being able to advocate for our kids, helping to ensure all students are treated fairly and are offered equal opportunities in our schools. In 2014 I began training as an emerging leader with my state and national unions. The training covered issues from women in leadership positions to working with students and staff in many capacities such as language barriers, discrimination and workers/students rights. I was accepted as a 'Leader for Tomorrow' and completed that program in 2015 which then drew me into more leadership training of stages of advocacy for union members, students and employees of public education. Over the summer, as a Board member, I was able to work with our NEA Executive Director on the 'School to Prison Pipeline.' This indeed is troublesome to think that so many students will fall through the cracks and go directly to jail or prison for incidents which could be prevented. In tum, this work has me focused on student discipline in our public schools to offer a more holistic approach to help our students across the country react in more of a positive way to life's challenges. Restorative practices are instilling a better sense of safety and security for all students. I attended several conferences over the past year which were inspiring as well as eye-opening. Many of the trainings left lasting impressions but one in particular; 'The Power of One' really struck me on how the work of one person who refuses to give up can benefit so many.

In April 2015 I was elected to the Michigan Education Association Board of Directors then in July of the same year I was elected to the National Education Association Board of Directors, (both for a 3-year term). In December of 2015 I was elected to the Traverse City Transportation association Executive Board as a union steward. In August of this year I was elected for a second term as a delegate for Precinct 10 in Traverse City. I am passionate about the work I undertake on behalf of all persons and I would dedicate myself to the members of my community. I hope that you will consider me for this commission work.

Sincerely, Martha (Marti) Alvarez

Benjamin C. Marentette City Clerk 400 Boardman A venue Traverse City, MI 49684

Mr. Marentette,

Thank you for the opportunity to have my application reviewed for Human Rights Commission Board. I am a strong advocate for upholding the dignity of all citizens in our communities. It is important to ensure that all people have access to education, healthcare, and above all that they are respected for their unique contributions to our beautiful Northern Michigan. My passion for hwnan rights spans through the intersections of ethnicity, education, and proper access to healthcare, both physical health and mental health.

Starting with my passion for diverse ethnicity, I will begin with my family background. My grandfather emigrated from the Philippines to the U.S. shortly before World War II. After entering the Coast Guard and serving in the Pacific, he was transferred to the Coast Guard Station in Traverse City. He and my grandmother established a family here. My grandfather, with his new U.S. Citizenship, especially felt that the Traverse City area was very welcoming and the place where he knew he could make his American Dream come true. I am passionate that people of all ethnicities should have the positive experience that my grandfather had when he came to America. Everyone deserves the right to establish themselves in cities and towns across our great nation without fear of discrimination. Traverse City provided that for my family and I am proud that nearly seventy years later the majority of our family still resides in the Traverse City area. That is a testament to the strength and enduring quality of our community.

I also believe that education is important at all levels. I attended private and public schools within the Traverse Area Intermediate School District. After high school I attended Northwestern Michigan College. My experience at NMC was so valuable and our college is such an asset to our community. I want to ensure that it can continue to grow and expand its programs for students of all backgrounds and all learning abilities. The support for NMC in our community is wonderful and I want to ensure that remains a tradition for years to come.

Finally, my passion for healthcare is one that stems from personal experience. A little more than a decade ago I was in my early twenties finishing up my undergraduate degree when I was diagnosed with an unusual form of cancer. Everything in my life went on hold and my world was forever changed. From that moment in time forward I have advocated for healthcare. I have volunteered with multiple organizations, I have shared my story numerous times, and I have discovered that so many people across our community face very similar challenges navigating our healthcare system. Or sometimes, they need support navigating through their circumstance whether it is transportation to treatments, finding financial assistance, or getting proper counseling. My hope is that, on a local level, I can continue to be an advocate and resource for the people who don't have a voice of their own. Some health issues are visible and some are not. We need to ensure that each and every person who is struggling in our community has access to the healthcare they need and to the Nicole Agruda 1642 Nightingale Ln Kingsley, Ml 49649 Phone: (23 l) 590 - 5896 Email: [email protected]

accommodations necessary to live and thrive here.

I have put my passions to work in our community by becoming involved with the United Way of Northwest Michigan. I was recently appointed to the Board of Directors for my first term in December of 2016. Within the United Way Board I am also an active member of the fund development committee. Before serving on the Board I was part of the Community Advisory Team (CAT, formerly Citizen Action Team) where I had direct involvement with reading grants and interviewing grant applicants. This experience was so eye opening for me. The CAT allows each member the opportunity to see firsthand where the needs are in our community. I have worked with, and continue to work with, amazing people both within the United Way, the citizen volunteers, and our partner organizations such as Goodwill Street Outreach, Third Level Crisis, The Little Collaborative, Dann's House, and so many more. One of the greatest initiatives that came from serving as a CAT member was establishing an opioid and substance abuse task force to address the immediate and growing need in our community.

As well as United Way I served on the American Cancer Society Relay For Life planning committee in Grand Traverse County. I filled several committee positions over five years, and was the Event Chairperson from 2013 - 2015. This event serves the need in our community of a time and place for cancer survivors, their caregivers, families, and friends to celebrate the amazing feat of surviving cancer. But it is also a time for some to reflect, remember, and honor those they have lost. It is a great event that does great things for that specific portion of people in our community.

I enjoy being a part of this community. I enjoy volunteering and giving back here. My next goal is to be able to serve on a board that is far reaching in terms of the size of our growing community, but also in its diversity.

Again, I thank you for your time and consideration of my application to the Human Rights Commission Board. My application and a copy of my resume are enclosed with this Jetter. If you have any questions, please contact me.

Sincerely,

Benjamin Marentette, City Clerk City of Trave rse City 400 Boardman Avenue Traverse City, Ml 49684

Dear Mr. Marentette,

I write in order to express my interest in serving on either (or both) the Brown Bridge Advisory Committee and the Traverse Area District Library Board. As a recent transplant to Traverse City, I view this opportunity as a chance to both serve my community and make new and lasting connections. Much of my professional life is dedicated to serving the public interest, and a board position would allow me to deepen that commitment.

I have not previously served on a board or committee, but have frequently interacted with board members in my work as an attorney, and I am familiar with the duties and responsibilities of the role. I've previously dedicated time to organizations such as my law school's disability resources center and a local food pantry, but these positions provide an opportunity to marry my skills and personal interests.

I believe my professional background would prove useful to either position. With regard to the library board position, my legal skills would give me insight into general liability issues, contract review or negotiation, tax and financing matters, and governance. Relevant to the Brown Bridge position, I frequently spend my working hours on matters concerning environmental resources, remediation and redevelopment, and preservation of natural areas: that substantive knowledge would lend itself well to providing advisory support to the city on the future of the Brown Bridge Quiet Area .

On a personal note, I am a strong believer in public libraries and public open spaces. Within days of settling in Traverse City, our family visited TADL to sign up for library cards, and my daughter is a voracious reader. Serving on the library board would further model for her the importance of literacy and the availability of literary resources. Similarly, I view the Quiet Area as an important space in our City that provides citizens with unique contact with nature just outside their doors. I hope to work towards its promotion and preservation.

Thank you for your consideration of my application. ir"~ Rebecca Millican Brown Bridge Advisory Committee

Attached to this report are the following items: August's report to the state, which has been submitted electronically, a financial summary for the Traverse City Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Grand Traverse County Septage Facility, and the monthly loadings report.

TRAVERSE CITY

OPERATIONS AND PROJECTS

The Treatment Plant was in full compliance through the month of August. On Wednesday August 23rd, approximately 60 gallons of biosolids leaked from one of the biosolids storage tanks onto the ground. The leak was contained onsite, most of the biosolids were recovered, and the affected area (Approximately 17 square feet) was stabilized with lime. This spill was reported to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality in accordance with regulatory requirements.

We are working with the University of Michigan to better understand the comma shaped Gram positive bacteria that are sometimes present in our biomass.

We sealed the covers on the west grit chamber, and digester #3 to help prevent odors from escaping.

We purchased a new hopper for the east grit chamber.

We performed draw down tests at the lift stations to verify their current capacities.

We are able to permeate at a rate that can more than meet current flow demands and produce an effluent that meets, and for many parameters, exceeds DEQ requirements. (Please refer to the permeability graph) OPERATING REPORT

Note: Trains that have triangle shaped markers have 500Ds cassettes. (In August, these trains all had very similar permeabilities and thus their trend lines were overlapping.) Maintenance

• We repaired RAS pump 1.

• We repaired the skimmer arm on primary tank 4 north.

• We replaced the settled sludge discharge valve on primary tank 1 north.

• We repaired the drive for primary tanks 1 and 2 north.

• We replaced two valves on the membrane building vacuum system.

• We repaired the mixing bowl on the east US Filter polymer unit.

Industrial Pretreatment Program

Left Foot Charlie's and Big Mouse Cheese were issued permits to discharge the waste at the Grand Traverse County Septage facility. We performed a long form inspection at CRM.
