Thursday, October 24, 2019, 8:00 A.M. Conference Room C- City Hall

• Approved August 22, 2019 meeting minutes. • Suggestion to add "No Parking" signs in the 900 block of Douglas, west side of road. Stacie will look at previous TCO. If allowed under that TCO, Chad will put up additional sign in area of concern. If no TCO, Stacie will create TCO. • Voted not to add sidewalk and mid-block crossing on Kinney in front of the school for parents going to the day care because of safety reasons. Crossings should be directed to the intersection or drop off in the designated area in front of the school. • After months of evaluation, the TCC will close out the re-examination of the "Yield to Pedestrian" signs in the middle of the street at the intersections of Broadway and University and Broadway and Franklin Streets. The TCC was searching for a better way to improve pedestrian safety. There has been business and citizen complaints about the signs obstructing traffic and being taken off road. The reason the signs were added was because the Pedestrian crossing volume (especially children on way to SHA and because the traffic proceeds non-stop from Mission through this area).

The TCC looked at multiple alternative solutions including: 1. Hanging signs over intersection (safety concerns, not effective) 2. Additional signage at the corners (off street) 3. 3D intersection painting (tried) 4. Flashing signs (off street) 5. Permanently mounting signs in middle of road (spring loaded) (plowing and truck turning issues) 6. No signs in street (decided that signs are needed) 7. Intersection painting (tried) 8. All-way stops (does not meet state warrant) 9. Elevated platform (too expensive) The signs are effective. They result in constant work to move them back when they are moved when delivery trucks move them to make the wide turns at the intersections. Large vehicles that are challenged making turns at these two intersections merely need to travel one block to the east or one block to the west to avoid them. After reviewing all available options, the TCC recommends the movable signs remain and the issue be closed. The existing signs are effective at increasing safety of pedestrians and slowing traffic which are their intended purpose. • Voted for the removal of the remaining two-way traffic signs from Main and Washington (handful left from the conversion). • Voted to remove the "Signal Ahead" signs at Broadway and Brown Streets.

Attn: Jeremy Howard, City Clerk

I am writing in regards to the letter I received about the Pedestrian Street Lighting. I do not have a business but I do own commercial property in the special assessment district area.

My purpose of this letter is to protest this project as the area is already very well lit. The city has already provided street lamp posts that give off a lot of light. I have already put up motion lights around my building prior to receiving this letter. I am protesting because the cost to me is very high and it would be a waste of money for the city as I have already stated that the area in question is very well lit . This is a large expense for everyone and I am not in agreeance of this proposal it is unnecessary as I have already explained and provided proof that the area is lit very well. I hope you take my concerns into consideration.

I think at this time the best option is to leave the pedestrian lighting as it currently is .

Thank you for your time,

The assessment of $2,390.63 For parcel # 17-000-00462-00 is not justified as I already have a beautiful pedestrian street light right in front of my bldg, At this time 02/02/2020

To the Mayor and City Commission:

Once again I would like to register an objection to approving the Special Assessment for the Michigan St. Project. For the City to say that they need to impose a special assessment because TIFA does not have the money is disconcerting. The reason TIFA does not have the money is because it was defunded by the City. The creation of a triple tax zone in the heart of Mt. Pleasant is a policy that will have a negative effect. People do not buy properties in triple tax zones. Why would they when they can go to Union Township and buy property that will be taxed in a normal fashion. If they do buy properties in a triple tax zone they insist on a heavy discount in price, which of course will reduce the property assessments in the City, leading to reduced revenue. Also what will happen to the CBD? Is it being dissolved? What will happen to the position of Downtown Director? Is it being eliminated? Is there even a need for the Downtown Director with the defunding of TIFA? In the past the City has stated that they wanted to revitalize the Downtown. I assume that is why TIFA was created in the first place. Is the City reversing its policy? The defunding of TIFA and the introduction of a second special assessment downtown indicates that the City is planning a major reversal in policy. I would ask that the City maintain its policy of revitalizing the Downtown. Start funding TIFA again and do the Michigan St. project the proper way. The lighting on Michigan St. was originally a TIFA project. It should remain a TIFA project. A City cannot in the long run thrive if it loses the confidence of the property owners. Defunding TIFA and constantly raising the PSD assessment and creating new assessments will destroy the confidence that the ~~operty ownE!\s have in the City.

From: Ryan Litwiller [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, March 2, 2020 2:08 PM To: Murphy, Becky Cc: Lisa Yanick‐Litwiller Subject: Request to revise 71.27 (B) ‐ Overnight parking 12/1 ‐ 04/1

EXTERNAL Message Warning

This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

Becky,

I appreciate you forwarding my request on the traffic control committee.

------

To whom it may concern,

I am a Mt. Pleasant resident and homeowner residing at 1036 S. Fancher. I would like to request that the 71.27 (B) ordinance regarding overnight parking on the days from December 1st to April 1st be revised.

It is my assumption that this overnight ban is to aid the removal of snow in the event of accumulation. If this assumption is correct, I believe, that only banning overnight parking when there is an accumulation that warrants snow removal would better serve the residents of the city.

As a single family of six, three licensed drivers (more on the way), three vehicles, and a single lane driveway parking can be a challenge during the months of December to April when street parking is banned. I certainly understand the need to ban parking when snow removal is required, but for nights when no snow removal is required I would challenge there is no beneficial reason to not allow street parking.

From a quick google search I was able to find other communities that have had similar overnight parking bans in the winter that have adopted an overnight ban only when snow removal is required. Mayville, WI is one such example, here is a quote from their online post:

https://www.mayvillepolice.org/2366/custom/49204 *Update to City Parking* The City of Mayville has updated it's Winter Parking Restrictions. The previous rule of no overnight parking beginning Dec 1st, is no longer valid. In a combined effort to better serve the residents of the City of Mayville, the Mayville Police Department and the Mayville DPW will be following a "1 inch rule". The DPW only plows if there is 1 inch or more of accumulated snowfall. If snowfall does not reach 1 inch, the DPW will only salt the roads. Therefore, the Mayville Police Department will be following this rule as well. Parking Enforcement will only be conducted if snowfall accumulates to 1 inch or more.

1 Residents may park on the street overnight if there is not enough accumlated snowfall. We do ask that all residents follow weather advisories and plan accordingly to assist with this transition.

A revision similar to Mayville's would be very much welcomed by our household. Happy to provide any additional information if needed, and appreciate the consideration.

Regards, Ryan Litwiller 1036. S. Fancher Ave Mt. Pleasant, MI [email protected] (508) 581-0854

______William L. Joseph, Mayor Jeremy Howard, City Clerk COMMISSION LETTER #041-20 MEETING DATE: MARCH 9, 2020

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION MARCH 4, 2020

FROM: NANCY RIDLEY, CITY MANAGER

SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING ON SPECIAL ASSESSMENT ROLL FOR SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICT #1-2020 AND CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION #5 FOR APPROVAL OF THE ROLL AND SETTING OF PAYMENT TERMS FOR THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICT

Attached is the City Commission Memo from the February 10, 2020 City Commission packet that outlined some of the background on the Michigan Street Pedestrian Lighting Project and the available options. Based on that memo, the City Commission approved a resolution on February 24 to accept the revised design of the lighting and a special assessment for an estimated project cost of $76,500. The special assessment roll was to be split 50% from the Capital Improvement Fund and 50% from the property owners. The assessment roll reflecting the revised estimated cost and allocation is attached for reference.

Letters were mailed to each of the property owners informing them of the revised dollar amount and the public hearing scheduled for March 9, 2020. After holding the public hearing, the City Commission can consider resolution #5. Resolution #5 is the last step in the special assessment process and would accept the assessment roll as presented and set the repayment terms. You will note the repayment terms would have the assessments due July 1, 2021 and the property owner has the option of splitting the payment into five annual installments with a 3% interest rate. The five annual installments is based on the guideline of an average $500 per year assessment amount.

Due to the number of written objections received regarding the special assessment, approval of resolution #5 will require five affirmative votes.

Recommended Motion: Move to approve resolution #5 for Special Assessment District #1-2020 as presented.

EXCERPT from E-Packet of February 10, 2020

COMMISSION LETTER #025-20 MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 10, 2020

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION FEBRUARY 5, 2020

FROM: NANCY RIDLEY, CITY MANAGER

SUBJECT: CONSIDER RESOLUTION #3 AS POSTPONED FROM JANUARY 27, 2020 TO PROCEED WITH IMPROVEMENTS AND CONSIDER RESOLUTION #4 TO ACCEPT THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT ROLL AND SET A PUBLIC HEARING FOR FEBRUARY 24, 2020 REGARDING SAID ROLL FOR SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICT #1-2020

Attached are the materials from the January 27, 2020 City Commission meeting when the public hearing was held on the pedestrian street lighting project for Michigan Street between Oak and Washington. The City Commission voted to postpone action so that staff could evaluate an optional design that would reuse the existing lights to reduce costs.

Background on Existing Michigan Street Lighting In 2010, the City received notice of a grant award for reconstruction of Michigan Street, east of Washington Street. Enhanced streetscape amenities were being considered as part of the project. At the same time, there were also discussions about whether any enhanced streetscape amenities could be done on Michigan Street, west of Washington Street.

A project was approved to install pedestrian street lighting on Michigan Street from Washington Street west to Oak Street. The project was funded with Tax Increment Finance Authority (TIFA) Funds. The design of the lighting was based on the amount of funds available from TIFA and therefore did not provide as much light as other lighting projects. When the bids were approved for the project, a different lighting manufacturer was also used based on the available dollars. The installation was completed in 2011.

Proposed 2020 Lighting Project The 2020 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and 2020 Operating Budget includes a project to enhance the pedestrian lighting on Michigan Street between Oak and Washington. The project design was based on the decision to provide more consistency with infrastructure projects throughout the entire City and attempting to minimize the long-term maintenance and replacement costs. Therefore, concrete pedestrian lighting poles (that had been used in other areas of the City) were proposed for this project. COMMISSION LETTER #025-20 EXCERPT from E-Packet of February 10, 2020 MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 10, 2020 Page 2

This is also the first area in the City where existing pedestrian lighting is being added to and/or replaced to result in improved lighting standards.

Redesign Option requested At the January 27 City Commission meeting it was requested that staff look at a redesign to keep/reuse as many of the existing poles as possible and add poles where needed.

The existing poles on Michigan Street are aluminum poles that are 15 ½ feet tall and are a bit more decorative than the new standard poles which are 18 feet tall black concrete poles. Pictures of each type of pole are attached for reference.

The redesign option would keep eight of the ten existing poles in place, move two to different locations along Michigan Street and purchase six matching poles. In order to construct the project in a consistent manner, the new poles purchased would be the same (or very similar) to the existing poles instead of the new standard concrete poles.

This redesign results in a new estimated price that is approximately 60% of the cost of the original design, $76,500. These estimates are still subject to bid. The poles that currently exist on Michigan Street are estimated at $5,000 each, whereas the new standard concrete poles were estimated at $3,700 each. In addition, the existing poles require a concrete foundation which are estimated at just over $1,000 per installation; whereas the new standard poles can be direct bury poles. These two factors result in the estimated price being approximately 60% of the original cost even though only six new poles are being purchased and two are being relocated.

Bidding The pedestrian lighting project is part of the larger street reconstruction project (to increase the efficiencies and to reduce the cost) and it is important to have the street bidding occur in a timely manner. Therefore, the bids for the project were sent out on Monday, February 3, to ensure the ideal bidding opportunity was not missed. Because of the uncertainty of the pedestrian lighting design, the bid documents include two alternates for the lighting, the original design and the optional design described above. The bids are due February 25 and are tentatively expected to be included in the March 9 City Commission agenda packet for your consideration. In order to award the bids as planned, a final decision on the design and the funding for the pedestrian lighting portion of the project will be needed by that time.

COMMISSION LETTER #025-20 EXCERPT from E-Packet of February 10, 2020 MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 10, 2020 Page 3

The overall project estimates (subject to competitive bidding) include the following: Item Dollar Amount Funded by Street Reconstruction $270,000 Local Streets Streetscape Improvements to $115,000 Capital Improvement Fund include stamped concrete, tree and grates, benches, trash cans Pedestrian Lighting $120,000 or $76,500 Special Assessment and (original) (redesign) Capital Improvement Fund

Available Options In order to improve the pedestrian lighting on Michigan Street between Oak and Washington, the following options are available:

• Option 1 Original design which is comprised of the new standard black concrete direct bury poles. The estimated cost is $120,000. This option has lower long-term maintenance and replacement costs but a higher upfront cost.

Recommended Motion Move to approve the original resolution #3 as presented at the January 27, 2020 City Commission meeting.

• Option 2 Keep/reuse the existing light poles and add new poles as presented above. This optional design has an estimated cost of $76,500. This option has a lower upfront cost but slightly higher long-term maintenance and replacement costs. An optional resolution #3 and the resulting assessment roll are attached for this option.

Recommended Motion Move to approve the optional resolution #3 as presented.

• Option 3 Have the Capital Improvement Fund pay a larger portion of the estimated cost, based on the history of the design of the lights in 2011. If the City Commission is interested in considering a higher percentage of the project to be paid by the City at large, the percentage allocation between the Capital Improvement Fund COMMISSION LETTER #025-20 EXCERPT from E-Packet of February 10, 2020 MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 10, 2020 Page 4

and the special assessment could be amended and a revised assessment roll created.

Recommended Motion Move to approve optional resolution #3 with a revised cost allocation of ___% to the Capital Improvement Fund for an updated/revised assessment roll.

Additional Information During discussion on the motion to postpone, there was discussion about having the Principal Shopping District (PSD) pay a portion of the funds for the installation of the pedestrian lighting. The PSD special assessment, which has been in place since 2003, has never been utilized for infrastructure (see attached history chart from May 2019 city Commission agenda packet). The current special assessment for the Principal Shopping District was approved for specific activities. Those activities include groundskeeping and the hanging baskets, snow removal of parking lots and adjacent sidewalks, utilities (irrigation and electrical) and power washing of sidewalks. Because of the stated purpose of the approved PSD special assessment, it would not be appropriate for the Principal Shopping District to contribute funds toward the lighting project, as a revised assessment process would be required for the PSD special assessment.

Due to the number of written objections received from property owners in this district, the Charter requires that a least five votes of the City Commission will be necessary for the project to move forward. Therefore, resolution #3 needs five votes to pass.

Assuming one of the versions of resolution #3 passes, it will then be necessary to consider resolution #4 as presented which sets a public hearing on the assessment roll for February 24, 2020.

COMMISSION LETTER #042-20 MEETING DATE: MARCH 9, 2020

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION MARCH 4, 2020

FROM: NANCY RIDLEY, CITY MANAGER

SUBJECT: BIDS AND QUOTATIONS a. Michigan Street Reconstruction The attached memo from Interim DPW Director Jason Moore provides a good overview of the options available for the award of the bid for the Michigan Street project this year. The bid is comprised of four identifiable pieces including:  Street reconstruction including curb and gutter  Streetscape improvements including stamped concrete, trees and grates, benches and trash cans  Alternate design for pedestrian lighting  Installation of irrigation for the trees

Our recommendation is Option A to ensure the project includes all of the desired elements, is constructed with the new standard for streetscapes, reduces the pedestrian lighting costs by re-using the existing poles, and provides irrigation to increase the likelihood of the trees surviving and growing.

Recommended Motion: Move to approve Option A (add lighting with irrigation) for $496,121 and appropriate budget amendments. OR Move to approve Option B (add lighting without irrigation) for $490,831 and appropriate budget amendments. OR Move to approve Option C (no additional lighting without irrigation) for $437,509 and appropriate budget amendments. OR Move to approve Option D (no additional lighting with irrigation) for $442,799 and appropriate budget amendments. COMMISSION LETTER #042-20 MEETING DATE: MARCH 9, 2020 Page 2

b. Lime Residuals Based on the bids received in 2019, we reduced the amount of lime residuals removed from the lagoons of the Water Plant last year. In order to keep the lagoons functioning properly we need to remove additional residuals this year as outlined in the approved Operating Budget.

The attached memo from Interim Director Jason Moore outlines the bids received and recommends a contract with the low qualified bidder.

Recommended Motion: Move to award the contract for lime residuals removal to Block Farm Operators LLC for $21.25 per cubic yard, not to exceed $200,000.

DATE: February 26, 2020

SUBJECT: Award Contract for the 2020 Michigan Street Reconstruction Project and Approve Budget Amendments

Request: The City Commission is requested to award the contract for the 2020 Michigan Street Reconstruction Project to McGuirk Sand and Gravel, of Mt. Pleasant and to approve recommended budget amendments.

Reason: The 2020 Michigan Street Reconstruction Project is part of the 2020 Capital Improvement Plan. This project includes the removal and replacement of the existing asphalt and subbase on Michigan Street between Washington and Oak Streets, as well as the installation of new curb and gutter. This project will also include planned work for Pedestrian Lighting and Streetscape. Construction is scheduled for July 6 to August 28.

The base bid includes the street reconstruction, streetscape, and the installation of 16 new concrete pedestrian lighting poles. Alternate bids were requested for the removal and reinstallment of two existing lights and the purchase and installation of six new light fixtures, and the installation of an irrigation system. Irrigation originally was not intended to be a part of the new standards moving forward but there is concern about the ability of the trees to survive when surrounded by concrete.

The street reconstruction portion of the bid is over the budgeted amount of $270,000. Based on discussions with contractors, this overage is due to a large amount of road work available throughout the state. The streetscape and pedestrian lighting portions of the bid are within budget. As mentioned above the irrigation system was not originally planned and will require a budget amendment.

On February 25, 2020, two bids were received.

Alternate Alternate Bid Bid Michigan Streetscape Pedestrian Irrigation Bidder Street Lighting System McGuirk Sand & Gravel $322,860.30 $114,648.50 $53,322.00 $5,290.00 The Isabella Corporation – Mt. $336,051.40 $115,435.50 $50,377.00 $5,000.00 Pleasant

McGuirk Sand and Gravel is the low bidder. The Commission has four options in awarding the contract and the corresponding budget amendments based on the support for the alternate lighting design of the last meeting.

• Option A (add lighting w/ irrigation): Includes the street reconstruction, streetscape project, alternate pedestrian lighting bid, and the irrigation system, for a total of $496,121. The alternate pedestrian lighting bid amount of $53,822.00 would be split equally between the City and adjacent property owners according to the special assessment. A budget increase of $52,860 would be needed from local streets for the street portion, an increase of $5,290 from the capital improvement fund for irrigation and the lighting funded by special assessment and capital improvement fund reduced to the alternate design.

• Option B (add lighting w/o irrigation): Includes everything in Option A except the irrigation system, for a total of $490,831. A budget increase of $52,860 would be needed from local streets for the street portion and the lighting funded by special assessment and capital improvement fund reduced to the alternate design.

• Option C (no additional lighting w/o irrigation): This would be considered if it is determined that no improvements should be made to the pedestrian lighting and no irrigation should be installed. The total award would be $437,509. A budget increase of $52,860 would be needed from local streets for the street portion and the special assessment and capital improvement funding for lighting would be reduced to zero.

• Option D (no additional lighting w/ irrigation): This would be considered if it is determined that no improvements should be made to the pedestrian lighting but irrigation should be installed. The total award would be $442,799. A budget increase of $52,860 would be needed from local streets for the street portion and $5,290 from the capital improvement fund for irrigation. The special assessment and capital improvement funding for lighting would be reduced to zero.

Recommendation: I recommend the City Commission award the contract for the 2020 Michigan Street Reconstruction Project, Option A, to McGuirk Sand and Gravel, for $496,121, and approve budget amendments of $52,860 and $5,290.

SUBJECT: Award Contract for the 2020 Lime Residuals Removal Bid

Request: The City Commission is requested to award the contract for the 2020 Lime Residuals Removal bid to Block Farm Operations, LLC, of Weidman, for $21.25 per cubic yard and a not-to-exceed contract amount of $200,000.

Reason: The water treatment plant softens well water using a lime/caustic softening method. The softening process produces a lime sludge (residual) byproduct that is stored in one of two storage lagoons. The lime residuals are removed periodically from the lagoons and used in many different applications, including as an agricultural soil conditioner.

Bids were sought for the removal of an estimated 10,000 cubic yards of residuals from the west lagoon. On February 25, 2020, the following bids were received. For reference, the 2019 per-cubic yard bid pricing is listed in parentheses.

Bidder Price per CYD Total Block Farm Operations, LLC – Weidman, MI $21.25 (no bid) $212,500.00 Prolime Corporation – Washington, MI $24.80 ($27.10) $248,000.00 Rocky Ridge Development, LLC – Sylvania, OH $28.45 ($23.65) $284,500.00

Block Farm Operations, of Weidman, is the low bidder. However, the total bid exceeds the amount budgeted for this work. Therefore, we will reduce the cubic yards to be removed from 10,000 to 9,411, which will allow us to remove as much as lime as possible from the west lagoon while remaining within budget.

Recommendation: I recommend the City Commission award the contract for the 2020 Lime Residuals Removal bid to Block Farm Operations, LLC for $21.25 per cubic yard and a not-to- exceed contract amount of $200,000. Funds are available in the Water Lagoon Reserve.

SUBJECT: CONSIDER COMMITMENT TO PURCHASE ROAD SALT FOR THE 2020- 2021SEASON THROUGH THE STATE OF MICHIGAN MIDEAL EXTENDED PURCHASING PROGRAM

The City of Mt. Pleasant purchases road salt through the State of Michigan’s MiDeal Extended Purchasing Program. For this commodity, the state program requires municipalities to make commitments in the first part of each calendar year. The MiDeal program is the best program for purchasing this important commodity based on the quantity purchased state-wide which results in the best pricing available for those who participate.

The attached memo from Interim DPW Director Jason Moore outlines the process and recommends authorization to commit to the purchase of 500 tons as a seasonal backup quantity for 2021. We are recommending this advanced commitment to ensure that our inventory remains at the appropriate level for future years.

Recommended Motion: Move to authorize an advanced commitment of 500 tons of road salt for early delivery as seasonal backup for 2021 through the State of Michigan MiDeal Purchasing Program.

SUBJECT: Approved Advanced Commitment of Road Salt

Request: The City Commission is requested to approve an advanced commitment of 500 tons of road salt through the State of Michigan’s MiDeal Extended Purchasing Program.

Reason: The City of Mt. Pleasant purchases road salt through the State of Michigan’s MiDeal Extended Purchasing Program. In order for the State to obtain the best pricing, this program requires MiDeal participants to place an advanced commitment, or reservation, for road salt early in the year for the next winter season. The State lets the road salt bid each August for the total tonnage reserved by all of the program customers. The 2020- 2021 road salt pricing will be determined after the State receives the bids and awards the contract.

The deadline for the advanced commitment for the 2020-2021 winter season is April 2, 2020. We are seeking approval to reserve 500 tons as a seasonal backup quantity for 2021, since we will have sufficient supply on hand for the start of the next season. Funds for this purchase will be included in next year’s operating budget.

Recommendation: I recommend the City Commission approve the advanced commitment of 500 tons of road salt for 2021 through the State of Michigan’s MiDeal Extended Purchasing Program.

SUBJECT: CONSIDER BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR TAX INCREMENT FINANCE AUTHORITY FROM ECONOMIC INITIATIVES FUND

As part of the restructuring of the downtown funds approved in November 2018, a commitment was made to allocate $80,000 from the Economic Initiatives Fund to the Tax Increment Finance Authority-Central Business District (TIFA-CBD). During 2019, the TIFA Board discussed potential projects for the best use of the funds and made a recommendation in October 2019. After a City Commission work session discussion in November 2019, the proposal was returned to the TIFA Board with additional guidance for a revised recommendation.

The attached memo from Downtown Development Director Michelle Sponseller outlines some of the history as well as the revised recommendation. It should be noted the revised recommendation includes an allocation of $40,000 for 2020 and the analysis and data collection that will be collected and shared at the end of the year. This will replace the $16,170 that was previously allocated from the General Fund for the marketing activities. Based on the results of the analysis at the end of 2020, a recommendation for the remaining $40,000 would be offered by the TIFA to the City Commission for 2021.

Recommended Motion: Move to approve a budget amendment of $40,000 from the Economic Initiatives Fund to the TIFA-CBD to be used for marketing and promotion as outlined in the recommendation dated February 25, 2020.

SUBJECT: Central Business District TIFA Business Incentives

BACKGROUND Since February the Tax Increment Finance Authority (TIFA) board has been developing a business incentives package for the Central Business District based on the following parameters provided by the city commission:

• $80,000 one-time allotment from city economic initiatives fund for business incentives; • Plan to be considered by City Commission; • Incentive to be spent by December 31, 2020; • To be returned at the end of 2020 if not used.

For the past year the TIFA board has been in deep discussions about selecting the best course of action to utilize the business incentives funding to strengthen both existing businesses and attract new businesses. At their October 23 meeting TIFA approved recommending to the City Commission that the business incentives focus on marketing the downtown district.

TIFA found the greatest challenge to be balancing the desire to attract new businesses while retaining and strengthening existing businesses. After careful consideration and lengthy discussions, TIFA believes focusing on additional marketing for the overall district will serve to grow our existing businesses and attract new businesses to downtown through the same efforts.

Based on the work session discussion on November 11 the following is a summary of the direction the City Commissioners provided back to the TIFA regarding the recommendation for the use of the $80,000 for business incentives for downtown.

Request TIFA board for a revised recommendation which addresses the following: • Willing to consider spending some funds on marketing, but $80,000 plus the allocation of $16,170 was too large of an expenditure in one year for marketing; • Willing to extend the deadline for use of the $80,000 allocation past 12/31/2020 to allow for effective use of the funds; • If recommendation includes marketing of individual businesses, would prefer to have the business provide some type of contribution/matching toward the cost; • Need more details on the “measurement” at the end of the advertising/marketing to be able to determine the actual impact/return from the use of the funds; • Ensure that the recommendation addresses in a combined way both the $16,170 previously allocated for marketing as well as the additional funds being recommended for marketing in 2020.

The TIFA board met on Wednesday, February 5 to discuss the City Commission requests to reexamine the types and amount of annual funding and options for providing more financial partnerships with downtown business owners regarding the proposed marketing incentives. After deliberations the following revisions are requested for approval by City Commission.

RECOMMENDED COURSE OF ACTION • Billboard Matching Program o Billboard located along the northbound route of 127 between Alma and Shepherd this billboard will be split between business owners and downtown to provide a cost effective entry into billboard marketing which would otherwise be financially unable to do.

Project Description The PEAK program stands for Partners Empowering All Kids and is a partnership between the City of Mt. Pleasant, Mt. Pleasant Public Schools, Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe, and United Way of Gratiot and Isabella Counties. PEAK has worked collaboratively with the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe and United Way of Gratiot and Isabella Counties on multiple special events. Events such as PEAK’s Super Summer Showcase is preceded by a “penny war” that the program uses to raise funds for United Way in order to teach children about community service and helping those in need. In addition, the PEAK program holds an annual community service day that brings children, families and the community together in order to provide food and other household necessities for those in need in the Mt. Pleasant community. The PEAK program has put a renewed focus on enrichment opportunities through collaborative efforts, unique community partnerships and the importance and understanding of cultural diversity. PEAK is entering its 19th year of operation and has become a staple for children’s services that the community and school system relies on to keep area children safe, educated and enriched. The PEAK After-School program operates at Renaissance Academy and all five Mount Pleasant Public School elementary schools (Fancher, Ganiard, McGuire, Pullen, Vowles) and Mount Pleasant Middle School every school day for over two hours, serving area children in grades K-8. The PEAK Summer Camp program operates for 12 weeks during the summer at a minimum of three elementary schools from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM. PEAK provides mentorship and enrichment programming for 200 elementary school students every day after school and for 300 students daily during PEAK Summer Camp through educational, recreational, physical and social-based programming in collaboration with Mt. Pleasant Discovery Museum, Central Michigan University’s recreational, educational and athletics programs, Potter Park Zoo, The Jump Station, Therapy Dogs International and many other area businesses and organizations. We have also been successful in implementing Native American cultural programming into our after-school curriculum though SCIT music and arts presentations and teachings. The goal of this programming is to increase cultural awareness of the community’s Native American population. An increased focus has also been put on MPPS involvement from principals, teachers and other administrative staff in areas of hiring, program development and expectations in order to lay a foundation for continued program growth and strength. In addition to the general education students, PEAK also staffs Special Needs Assistants at each site in order to provide the same high- quality programming for students with educational, emotional and physical disabilities. It’s very important to the program and to the community that we are able to meet the needs of every child, regardless of their limitations. Inclusivity of all children is a major component of the PEAK program. The PEAK staff consists of 45 highly-qualified individuals, most of which are CMU students majoring in general education, special education, recreation and other related fields. Another major component of the PEAK program is not simply to have staff, but to have qualified and trained staff who are capable of providing the children in the program with the care they need and deserve. In order to achieve this high-level of training and qualified staff, PEAK partners with Central Michigan University, the Children and Family Enrichment Child Advocacy Center of Isabella County, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and other agencies to achieve the highest level of training possible. One of the goals of the PEAK program is to ensure that every child is able to participate, regardless of their ability to pay. Scholarship assistance is available to ensure that every child has the opportunity to participate in the program and enjoy all the benefits – regardless of their ability to pay.

Benefit Description While there are literally thousands of studies and statistics to support the long-term benefits of quality after-school and summer programming for children, the simple answer to why PEAK is so important is that there are a great number of area children who simply do not have a safe place to go after school. For those who do have a place to go, many times that place is not safe and/or conducive to educational, physical and social growth. PEAK is able to provide students of all walks of life and backgrounds the opportunity to grow in ways that will set them up for future success by means of quality programming, positive role models and a safe and enriching environment. Quite simply, without the PEAK program, hundreds of children would have no place to go after school and would be put in dangerous positions and situations that would compromise their safety and the safety of others. PEAK provides the program participants, their parents and the community as a whole with a sense of security, knowing that their children are well cared for in an environment that will help develop good educational and social habits to ensure future growth and success. In addition to the school day and summer camp curriculum, PEAK also puts a strong focus on teaching children the importance of community and of giving back. Each summer, special events such as Community Service Day, Super Summer Showcase and the Penny War highlight the relationship with United Way and the community by having children generate monetary funds and thousands of food items and school supplies that they then give back to those who are in need. We feel that this is a benefit to the children by teaching to them the importance of giving back to those in need, while meeting critical needs in the community. The increased focus on MPPS involvement will also help ensure that the PEAK program serves as an extension of what teachers are trying to accomplish during the school day. Consistent communication with teachers and parents of the children enrolled in the PEAK program allows PEAK to put a focus on and meet the most challenging aspects of the school curriculum. PEAK offers one-on-one www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2399 2/4 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application tutoring and homework help that can be targeted to specific areas of the school day that children find most challenging. Through the relationship with CMU, PEAK hires CMU students in education, recreation and other related fields so that they can gain real-life experience to better prepare them for both their professional and personal life after graduation. The PEAK program has been working very hard with members and organizations of the Tribe on implementing Native American cultural components into our after-school programming. We aim to increase cultural awareness and understanding of our local cultures in order to create more accepting, understanding and culturally-educated students. Cultural diversity is a part of the Mt. Pleasant community that we are blessed to have and we feel this should be celebrated by working directly with the Tribe and their affiliated organizations to create fun, engaging and culturally enriching opportunities for both the Tribe and our PEAK students. During our PEAK school program, we are planning a field trip to the Ziibiwing Center and during the summer we attend the bbaamoseg gitiganing (all will walk about the plants that grow) exhibit and learning about plants used traditionally by the Anishinabe people. Through these experiences we hope increase the knowledge of the youth of our city and expose them to different cultural components and opportunities that are present right in Mt. Pleasant. If awarded, a portion of this grant will be used in order for us to attend this field trip and other field trips similar to it.

Funding Requirements The 21st Century Grant that was awarded in 2000 only covered the first five years of operation. Since then, the program has relied heavily on funding from outside sources in order to keep program fees low, without having to sacrifice the quality of care being offered to local school children. The Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe has been instrumental in allowing this program to exist in a manner that allows children of all economic and social backgrounds to participate – regardless of their ability to pay. Historically, one-half of the PEAK program budget came in the form of Tribal 2% funds. Tribal support is extremely important to the overall quality and long-term health of the PEAK program and all the children and families it serves and over time, efforts have been made to control expenses program-wide. The remaining PEAK budget is made up of program fees, and support from entities such as United Way have provided the remaining funding needs. Program fees are kept at a minimum and are based on family income and a family’s ability to pay. Over $60,000 is made available annually in form of scholarship assistance to ensure that every child is able to participate in PEAK – regardless of their ability to pay. It has been the goal of PEAK to increase the amount of revenue generated from the PEAK K-8 program through fundraising and other available grants while decreasing the portion requested from the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe. Without the continued support of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe through 2% allocations, the PEAK program would need to undergo a comprehensive evaluation in order to determine if this is a program that is economically feasible. During fall 2019 2% allocations, PEAK received funds that were very helpful in providing half of the funding for the program in 2020. The current funding request will be specifically focused on the other half of the 2020 program. We are requesting half of the total funds needed for the 2020 program during the spring 2020 cycle and planning on applying for the 2021 program during the fall 2020 2% grant cycle.

Description of Reocurring Need PEAK operates each school year for a total of 2.5-3 hours during the academic year, as well as 10 hours a day for ten weeks during the summer.

Project Timeline PEAK is an on-going program run both after school and during the summer months.

Project Description The Project request is for funds to update the pedestrian foot bridge that is part of the Mt. Pleasant Riverwalk Trail that crosses the Chippewa River at High Street (M-20 West). This wood and steel foot bridge is alongside the concrete vehicular bridge that crosses the River and is owned and maintained by the City of Mt. Pleasant. The footbridge and trail along High St. from Watson St. to Chipp-A- Waters Park was built in 2003 as a joint venture between the City of Mt. Pleasant and the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT). After the project was complete operation of the bridge and trail became the responsibility of the City Parks Department and is an important link in the overall Mt. Pleasant River trail. Because this pedestrian bridge is alongside the road bridge it is subjected to a great amount of roadway slush and salt spray in winter and spring months which has accelerated the rate of decay on the bridge. Paint

www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2393 1/3 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application is chipping and rust is showing and the wood decking is beginning to decay quicker because it is located adjacent to a major roadway. Because the bridge is located over the Chippewa River extra care must be taken to strip and repaint the structure safely and protect the water quality during the project.

Benefit Description The pedestrian bridge is part of the Mt. Pleasant Rivertrail that connects many of the City Parks and is used by many in the community for exercise, nature viewing, and organized and passive recreation. Updating the bridge will allow these activities to continue and increase the longevity of the bridge while reducing future safety, repair, and maintenance costs.

Funding Requirements The City continues to update Parks, pedestrian bridges, and trails to keep the community vibrant and up to date. This project need is higher than usual pedestrian bridges because of the location near a major roadway which has accelerated the rate of decay and many residents and visitors pass by this very visible spot in our community.

Project Timeline Timeline is to complete this project in Calendar Year 2020

Categories Infrastructure Park Improvements

Project Description The Project request is for funds to update the 18 year old Island Park Skate Park built in 2002 with assistance from the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe. The Park continues to be popular and has been well used for many years by skateboarders, in-line skaters and BMX style bike users alike. The City has continued to be attentive to many ongoing maintenance needs in the park including adding updated safety railings in 2015, ramp repairs in 2018 and totally repainting the ramps and rails with specialized paint more than 3 times since the park was built 18 years ago. Currently the perimeter fencing is in need of replacement and repair in many areas of the facility due to the years of the skateboards bouncing into the fences from high use and ongoing participation. The old steel and wood 5 row bleacher needs to be replaced. New trees will be added around the perimeter of the Skate Park for needed shade to keep the steel ramps and rails cool.

www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2395 1/2 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application Benefit Description The Island Park Skate Park has been a well used recreational element in the community for 18 years. This upgrade will allow the facility to continue to be a safe and reliable facility for the whole community for years to come.

Funding Requirements The City will continue to provide ongoing funds for the upkeep of the facility. This project and the City's proactive maintenance will allow the skate park to continue to safely serve the community well into the future.

Project Description The proposed project includes conducting supplemental groundwater characterization and evaluation of management and cleanup alternatives at the former City of Mount Pleasant Landfill. This former landfill was operated until the late 1970s-early 1980s for placement of general refuse from residents and business owners throughout the community. In the early 1980s, the landfill was closed and capped with clean fill material, as appropriate with the regulatory requirements applicable at the time. Based on modifications and additions to the environmental regulations, in conjunction with the identification of new environmental contaminants (PFAS) identified in connection with former municipal landfills, also commonly referred to as “dumps”.

www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2394 1/2 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application Community landfills were common throughout the state and country for several decades for disposal of local trash The City is working in conjunction with the State and Federal regulatory agencies to evaluate the environmental condition of the former landfill.

Benefit Description This proposed project would aid in the evaluation of the environmental condition of the property. The results of the proposed activities will be used to determine if there are any potential threats to people or the environment.

Funding Requirements $23,973 for work scheduled in the attached work plan.

Samples were submitted for analysis of ammonia (N), nitrate (N), nitrite (N), alkalinity (calcium carbonate), metals (antimony, arsenic, barium, beryllium, boron, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, selenium, silver thallium, and zinc), cyanide, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHC), chemical oxygen demand (COD), pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Based on the results, all analytical parameters were below the laboratory detection limit, with the exception of the following; ammonia (N), nitriate (N), alkalinity (calcium carbonate), arsenic, barium, boron, cadmium, nickel and selenium. Of the parameters detected, ammonia (N), boron, selenium, and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) exceeded the Residential Drinking Water and/or the Groundwater Surface Water Interface Criteria. The analytical results associated with the above sampling were previously provided to the department and are not attached herein.

Former Mount Pleasant Landfill Sampling and Analysis Plan-February 18, 2019

AKT Peerless initiated a subsurface investigation to evaluate the environmental characteristics of the subject property. AKT Peerless: (1) conducted a Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) Survey, (2) installed two temporary monitoring wells (MW-1-19 and MW-2-19), (3) submitted the groundwater samples for laboratory analyses of VOCs, PCBs, and Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), and (4) collected discharge water samples from Outfall A and Outfall B for analysis of PFAS.

On June 18, 2019, AKT Peerless conducted a GPR Survey at and adjacent to the western portion of the former dump deposition area. The GPR revealed the approximate extent of refuse and debris. The GPR also depicted the cap overlying the deposition area. The cap ranged from approximately 2.0 to 3.0 feet in thickness. The route and termination points of the clay tiles was not discernable during the GPR survey. It should be noted, that due to the heavily wooded and vegetated characteristics of the portions of the GPR survey area, certain areas were not reasonably accessible to the equipment. Refer to the attached Figure 2, which depicts the GPR survey area.

On June 18, 2019, AKT Peerless completed three soil borings to evaluate the subsurface characteristics. Soil borings were completed to a maximum depth of 10 feet below ground surface (bgs). Soil types encountered during drilling consisted of vegetated topsoil, underlain by silty sand. AKT Peerless encountered groundwater in all of the soil borings advanced at the subject property. Two of the borings were converted to monitor wells (MW- 1-19 and MW-2-19). A one-inch PVC riser with a five-foot screen was utilized for each groundwater monitor well. The monitor wells are screened from 3.0 to 8.0 feet bgs.

On June 28, 2019, AKT Peerless conducted a groundwater sampling event from MW-1-19 and MW-2-19. Groundwater sampling was conducted using low-flow sampling methodologies described in the April 1996 United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) document Groundwater Issue titled “Low-Flow (Minimal Drawdown) Groundwater Sampling Procedures.” Refer to Figure 2 for a site map with monitor well locations.

On July 19, 2019, AKT Peerless completed a visual inspection of the clay outfalls along the Chippewa River shoreline. Tile A had a discharge of approximately 1.5 gallons per minute (gpm). Tile B had a discharge of approximately .25 gpm. All remaining discharge tiles did not have any flow. Samples were collected from discharges A and B for laboratory analysis of PFAS.

Groundwater samples collected were collected with a peristaltic pump and dedicated tubing. Samples were submitted under chain of custody to Fibertec Environmental Laboratories in Holt, Michigan for analysis of VOCs, PCBs, and PFAS. Groundwater samples for VOC analyses were collected with zero headspace into 40 ml glass vials and preserved with hydrochloric acid. Groundwater samples for PCBs were collected into 1-liter amber glass jars. Groundwater samples collected for analysis of PFCs analysis were collected into 15 ml PFAS free vials.

The laboratory analyzed the samples for: (1) VOCs in accordance with USEPA Methods 5030C/8260B; (2) PCBs in accordance with USEPA Methods 3510C/8082A; and (3) PFAS in accordance with ASTM Method D7979-17.

The analytical results for all VOCs and PCBs were within the monitor wells were below the laboratory detection limit. Various PFAS compounds were identified above the laboratory detection limit. Analytical results were compared to the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) Part 201 Criteria. The following table summarizes the results of the PFAS comparison to applicable criteria.

As summarized in the above table, concentrations of PFOA were identified above the Part 201 Drinking Water (DW) Criteria in groundwater samples collected from MW-1-19 and MW-2-19. Concentrations of PFOS (total branched and linear) were identified at concentrations exceeding the DW and Groundwater Surface Water Interface (GSI) Criteria in groundwater samples collected from MW-1-19 and MW-2-19. Additionally, PFOS was was identified in Clay Tile A and B exceeding the GSI Criteria. Additionally, PFOS in Clay Tile B exceeded the DW Criteria. Refer to Appendix B for the laboratory analytical reports.

AKT Peerless and the City of Mount Pleasant personnel have completed several visual evaluations of all outfalls, adjacent to the Chippewa River. All outfalls, with the exception of Outfalls A and B continue to not discharge any discernable water.

Between August 27 and 30, 2019, City of Mount Pleasant personnel performed exploratory excavation activities to further evaluate the characteristics of the tiles. All outfall drain lines were traced and exploratory excavation was conducted to expose the at various locations between the outfalls and the landfill. These tiles were plugged using using flowable fill and dimension specific mechanical plugs at the outfall and excavated locations, as depicted on the map.

Between November and December 2019, four additional monitor wells (MW-3-19 through MW-6-19) were installed within the former landfill refuse disposal area to evaluate for the presence of contaminants of concern. Samples were collected and submitted for laboratory analysis on December 16, 2019. The analytical results identified select volatile organic compounds (VOCs), polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), metals and PFAs above the Part 201 Drinking Water and Groundwater Surface Water Interface Criteria.

• Based on the results of the assessment activities completed to-date, additional environmental assessment activities are warranted to further characterize the nature and extent of contamination.

Based on the findings of environmental assessment activities conducted to-date, in conjunction with a meeting with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (MDEGLE), the proposed scope of work has been established based on the following considerations and objectives:

Former Mount Pleasant Landfill Sampling and Analysis Plan-February 18, 2019

• In July 2019, AKT Peerless installed two monitor wells at the property, west of the landfill deposition area. Analytical results from these samples identified Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS/PFOA) have been identified in groundwater adjacent to the landfill at concentrations exceeding the MDEGLE Part 201 Cleanup Criteria.

• PFOS, PFOA, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, boron, and selenium were identified in tiles discharging to the Chippewa River. Although these tiles have been permanently plugged, preventing discharge to the Chippewa River, the source of these contaminants warrants further assessment.

• The landfill refuse deposition area has not been evaluated. Therefore, in addition to the above contaminants of concern, the potential exists that additional contaminants associated with historical refuse deposition may be present.

• Based on the results of the assessment activities completed to-date, additional environmental assessment activities are warranted to further characterize the nature and extent of contamination.

Refer to Table 1 for a summary of all groundwater analytical results. Refer to Figure 2, which depicts the location of the monitor wells.

Proposed Scope of Work

Based on the aforementioned considerations, AKT Peerless established the proposed scope of work to provide the necessary hydrogeologic characteristics information and regional characteristics information to determine the most feasible alternatives to manage potential risks to the environment Therefore, based on the extensive characterization that has been conducted and current subject, the objective of the proposed scope of work has been established based on the following considerations:

Based on the aforementioned considerations, the following table summarizes the task and objective of the proposed scope of work.

Former Mount Pleasant Landfill Sampling and Analysis Plan-February 18, 2019

Table 1-Proposed Scope of Work

PROPOSED ACTIVITY OBJECTIVE

AKT Peerless will review the well records maintained on the EGLE Further evaluate potential for PFAS and Scanned Water Well Records Database other contaminants of concern to adversely (http://www.deq.state.mi.us/well-logs/) for all recorded wells impact regional drinking water quality, for located within 1-mile of the subject property. Additionally, AKT any residences not obtaining municipal Peerless conducted limited visual inspections of all developed water. source area and further evaluate the properties within ½ mile of the subject property. Based on the contamination contours, in light of the absence of municipal water service, it is presumed that all radial groundwater movement developed properties rely on local groundwater resources.

Install 6 monitor wells adjacent to the Chippewa River. Further evaluate groundwater

characteristics that may be venting to the

river (referred to as groundwater surface

water interface). Evaluate for the presence of contamination and the hydrogeologic characteristics (i.e. groundwater elevation, flow direction, hydraulic gradient, and velocity).

Prepare a Remedial Action Plan Based on the results of the previous sampling, in conjunction with the proposed sampling, a Remedial Action Plan is

necessary. This plan defines the risks, fate, and as applicable the corrective actions required.

All field methodologies, sampling procedures and analytical methods will be conducted in accordance with current industry standards and methodologies to ensure the data quality and minimize the potential for

Former Mount Pleasant Landfill Sampling and Analysis Plan-February 18, 2019

cross-contamination, as described below. The proposed monitor wells will be constructed using one-inch diameter polyvinyl chloride (PCV). During installation, development, and sampling all quality assurance/quality control procedures customary to minimize the potential for cross-contamination.

Scope of Work and Methodologies The scope of work for this investigation was established to further characterize the extent of PFAS, support the completion of a PFAS specific conceptual site model, and if applicable remediation feasibility analysis. AKT Peerless proposes to install 17 groundwater monitor wells. Wells will be advanced using a Geoprobe® hydraulic push probe and/or hand auger methods. Based on the depth to groundwater, in conjunction with the data quality objectives, direct push and/or hand auger methods will result in monitor wells yielding representative groundwater samples. Each monitoring well will consist of a one-inch diameter riser and screened section of PVC piping. The monitoring wells will be screened to bisect the static groundwater table. Based on the results of the groundwater elevation surveys completed, groundwater elevations within the proposed monitor wells will range from approximately 2 feet to 8 feet below the ground surface (bgs).

It is anticipated that a large portion of the proposed monitor wells will be advanced with a hydraulic push probe or Geoprobe®. Lack of equipment accessibility and/or unstable soil conditions would be the only instance in which a hand auger will be used in lieu of a geoprobe. During geoprobe borings, a macro core soil sampler will be used to collect continuous soil samples.

Strict decontamination procedures will be followed during the completion of investigation activities by AKT Peerless personnel to reduce the potential for cross-contamination. All drilling and down-hole sampling equipment will be decontaminated prior to first use onsite, and thereafter between uses, using a high- temperature, high-pressure spray washer, and/or a vigorous wash in an Alconox solution, followed by a tap water rinse, and a distilled water rinse.

Following installation, all proposed monitor wells will be developed by evacuating a minimum of three well volumes from the well. Groundwater sampling will be conducted using low-flow sampling methodologies described in the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) document Groundwater Issue titled “Low-Flow (Minimal Drawdown) Groundwater Sampling Procedures”. A minimum of 24-hours following installation, AKT Peerless will collect one groundwater sample from each monitoring well after purging the well at a maximum rate of 100 milliliters per minute results in the stabilization of all field measured water quality parameters (temperature, turbidity, oxidation reduction potential, pH, and conductivity). In the event the proposed monitor well purges dry, sufficient time will be allowed for recharge prior to sample collection. Individual PFAS samples require approximately 21 milliliters of water to be collected into the laboratory provided PFAS free sample containers.

All samples will be transported to a laboratory under chain-of-custody documentation in an ice-cooled container.

Former Mount Pleasant Landfill Sampling and Analysis Plan-February 18, 2019

Sampling Staff Preparation

AKT Peerless sampling staff will prepare for sampling in the following manner 24 hours prior to sampling:

• Abstain from use of all personal care products 24 hours prior to sample collection. • Vigorously wash hand using non-detergent PFAS free soap prior to sampling. • Wear 100% cotton clothing laundered a minimum of six times without detergent or fabric softener. • Neoprene boots.

Based on the duration required for sample collection, the use of sunscreen, insect repellents, beverages or other products will not be necessary.

Sample Collection and Handling

During all handling of sampling equipment and containers, powderless nitrile gloves will be continuously worn during all sample collection and preparation. Additionally, AKT Peerless will request any third parties onsite to maintain a minimum of 50 feet clearance during sample collection.

A field blank will be collected to assess for cross contamination during sampling. The field blank will collected using PFAS free water which is collected into the laboratory provided containers at the selected locations. Additionally, a duplicate sample will be collected on each onsite sampling day, at a rate of no less than one per 10 sample locations. A laboratory provided trip blank will accompany all samples throughout the collection and transport process.

Containers will be labeled using ball point pen and double bagged in 1-gallon Ziploc containers. Samples will be stored in a cooler containing 1-gallon of ice double bagged in Ziplocs and maintained at 6 Celsius. The samples will be delivered to Merit Laboratories for analysis by AKT Peerless staff within 24 hours of collection.

Laboratory Analysis Merit Laboratory will conduct laboratory analyses using EGLE, US EPA, and/or ASTM approved analytical ASTM Method D7979-17.

Data Management, Regulatory Interfacing, and Reporting Upon receipt of the analytical results, AKT Peerless will compile the results of all sampling completed to- date at the subject property. The data will be used to support the preparation of a Remedial Action Plan and Conceptual Site Model (CSM) for submission to EGLE. Following preparation and submittal report AKT Peerless will coordinate meetings with stakeholders and the regulatory team to present the findings, recommendations, and schedule of implementation.

Project Description The 1MG and 2MG drinking water storage reservoirs have been in service since the 1960’s and 1970’s respectively. Over time, concrete reservoirs degrade due to numerous factors and need to be repaired and maintained to extend engineered service life and promote continued water quality protection. Proper maintenance of reservoirs is an important step in the storage and distribution of drinking water.

1MG ground storage reservoir rehabilitation includes removal of corroded appurtenances and fasteners, replacing failed sections of concrete, and applying coatings in areas where water has been found to propagate through cracks that have developed since initial installation in addition to modifications to the existing inner-most concentric reservoir separation ring, and installation of a passive mixing system to improve water quality by eliminating short-circuiting. www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2363 1/2 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application

Benefit Description This project will extend the life and operational performance of the reservoir and provide improved drinking water quality for the community.

Funding Requirements Ongoing maintenance cost is addressed in the Water Department operational budget.

Project Description This funding request is to provide funds to support the basic operations of the airport. Appropriate staffing levels to cover operational needs have, in the past, been covered in part by using airport fund balance. Staff at the airport was recently increased to ensure that appropriate staff is available 7 days per week to service planes. In order to provide the necessary funds for basic operation of the Mt. Pleasant Municipal Airport, the City has had to contribute $81,600 per year from general fund. The Saginaw Chippewa Tribe has provided funding for the airport operations on a regular basis. Without ongoing funding from the Tribal 2% allocations, the services at the airport could not be maintained.

www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2382 1/3 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application Benefit Description The airport is a economic driver for economic development and business growth. The Mt. Pleasant Airport is a major gateway to the Tribal community's casino and resort operations. Many entertainers appreciate the convenience and service they experience at the airport when coming to perform at the resort. The additional funding from the Tribe would provide the funding needed since the fund balance has been depleted. The ability to provide essential services to the Tribal community's visitors and business associates may be affected without adequate funding. A recent study by MDOT indicated that the economic benefit to the surrounding area is $8 million per year.

Funding Requirements Exploring partnerships to share costs, oversite and management with potential partners including Isabella County, Townships, CMU, and the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe.

Project Description The water treatment plant was constructed in the early 1990’s and began producing drinking water on December 12th 1995. Water department staff drain, clean, and inspect the inside of both clarifiers annually. Following inspection, areas showing coating failure and corrosion are re-painted. In 2015, clarifier #2 was inspected and staff found that the structural steel in many places was in need of replacement. Clarifier #2 was rehabilitated in 2016. Clarifier #1 is showing the same condition and following inspection during spring 2019 the decision has been made to move forward with rehabilitation in 2020.

Project Description The city will purchase a drainage structure scanning device that will produce images and 3-dimensional models of scanned drainage structures (manholes, catch basins, and inlets). This device would be used to eventually scan each of the over 4,400 drainage structure in the city's wastewater and stormwater collection systems.

Benefit Description The city's wastewater and stormwater collection systems are great assets to the community. With around 140 miles of pipe and 4,400 drainage structures within these systems, keeping up with maintenance presents a real challenge. In regards to the pipe, since the early 2000s, the city has utilized televising equipment purchased through a two percent grant funded by www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2396 1/3 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application the SCIT to do evaluations. Before street resurfacing projects are initiated televising is done of the sewer mains to be sure that we are not paving over a pipe that may fail within the 10-25 year lifespan of the new pavement. The information gathered during this process combined with substantial grant funding from the state of Michigan for asset management between 2014 and 2017 has given us a relatively good perspective on the condition of the 140 miles of pipe in the systems. While we do have locations of all our drainage structures we do not have video evaluations of them. The scanning process will produce images that can be used to evaluate structures within the influence of future paving projects. The LIDAR technology built into the scanner will also produce a 3-dimensional “point cloud” that will allow our engineering staff to produce accurate plans for a replacement if needed. If this project is funded it will allow us to fill a critical gap in our understanding of the needs of the stormwater and wastewater collections systems. Some of these assets were placed in the early 1900s. They have served the community well and we take our responsibility to maintain them seriously. This funding will allow us to put our infrastructure dollars to their best use by choosing the structures that are in the worst shape. This will help us to maintain these systems in the most cost-effective way possible. By purchasing the scanning device, it could also be made available for surrounding communities to utilize for their wastewater and stormwater collection systems.

Funding Requirements No other funding would be required. We will utilize city staff to operate the equipment.

Project Timeline Purchasing of the device would be done once a bid process has been completed (4-6 weeks). We would initially focus on structures within the influence of street resurfacing projects in the city's capital improvement plan. That would likely be completed before the end of 2020. From then on we would have a goal of scanning 20% of the system each year until completed in 2025.

Project Description Wellhead Protection Programs (WHPP) assist communities in protecting source water depended on for their municipal drinking water systems. A wellhead protection program minimizes the potential for contamination by identifying and protecting the area that contributes water to municipal water supply wells and collectors.

WHPP are not only used for protecting source water by identifying and protecting physical infrastructure but also include substantial public outreach and education. WHPP updates are recommended to be completed every 10 years by the State of Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE). www.sagchip.org/TwoPercent/Projects/Details/2359 1/3 2/26/2020 Project Summary - 2% Application

This update will include a study performed by a contracted engineering firm to complete a protection area delineation, identify sources of contamination within that area of delineation, create a frame work for improved management of the area, update the source water contingency plan, update our source water strategy to meet current and future demands, strengthen relationships between neighboring communities and individuals, and last but not least generate community awareness through numerous public outreach events and documentation.

Benefit Description There are three neighboring community water systems and numerous individuals that all rely on relatively close and sometimes interconnected sources for drinking water.

An update to one of those communities' WHPP will provide vital information for the others. This update will provide information regarding current and future: water demands, impacts from supplying drinking water, sources of potential contamination, and long-term operational planning, in addition to public engagement related to the protection of local water resources and the environment.

b) MCC provides a certification, signed and sworn to by an officer of MCC, that the reimbursement request is for funds to pay for the Activities actually performed at or on the Property, and that all grant funds

previously paid to 410 Broadway on behalf of MCC have been used to pay for the Activities at the Property; and

c) MCC provides to the City appropriate invoices and other documents evidencing the costs for which reimbursement is sought.

2. MCC will cause Triterra to assist the City, at the reasonable request of the City and at no cost to the City, to prepare all reports and other documents required under the grant terms or otherwise. MCC will further cause Triterra to prepare and submit all reports regarding the Activities as may be required by the Michigan Department of the Environment, Great Lakes and Energy ("EGLE").

3. MCC and Triterra will comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and ordinances, including the grant terms and requirements of EGLE, in the conduct of the

4. Except as to claims or losses arising out of the City or the Commission’s own act(s) or omission(s), MCC will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City and its

5. The City shall retain any of the grant funds allocated to administrative costs

7. MCC will, and will cause Triterra and 410 Broadway to, cooperate with any

audits or requests for information from EGLE, and assist the City in responding to any requests

from EGLE.

8. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed

an original and, when compiled, deemed to constitute a single document. Executed copies may

be delivered electronically (via facsimile or email) and, upon receipt, shall be deemed originals

10. If any provision of this Agreement is declared void or unenforceable by a final judicial or administrative order, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect, except that the void or unenforceable provision will be deemed deleted and replaced with a provision as similar to such void or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

11. No right under this Agreement may be waived except by written instrument executed by the party waiving such right and no such written waiver will be deemed a waiver of a future exercise of such right. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement will be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of this Agreement. If any act or omission by any party shall require the consent or approval of another party, such consent or approval of such act or omission on any one occasion shall not be deemed a consent to or approval of said act or

omission on any subsequent occasion or consent to or approval of any other act or omission on

the same or any subsequent occasion.

12. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is the

entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this

Agreement, and it supersedes all discussions, documents, and correspondence entered into before the execution of this Agreement. This Agreement may only be amended or modified by written agreement between the parties.

Why are you interested in this particular board or boards?
