COMMISSION LETTER #027-12 MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 27, 2012

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION FEBRUARY 22, 2012

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: PRESENTATION BY DR. NORMA BAILEY PROPOSING AN ANTI-

DISCRIMINATION ORDINANCE (Q & A PROVIDED BY SUPPORTERS OF THE PROPOSED ORDINANCE)

Attached is an informational hand-out provided by Norma Bailey, PhD, to accompany her presentation on February 27, 2012. This two page communication, entitled "Elected Officials FAQ: Non-Discrimination Ordinances", was sent by email with the request that it be attached to the agenda item related to the presentation on the proposed ordinance. This communication has not been reviewed by members of the City's administration or legal team. KSG/ap

Elec.ed Officials FAQs: Non-Discrimination Ordinances

Why should we adopt a non-discrimination ordinance?America prides itself on being a society of free and equal people, yet right now in Michigan it is legal foremployers, landlords or managers of public accommodations to discriminate against someone they .hinkmight be gay or transgender. By passing a non-discrimination ordinance you can help to ensure that all ofyour constituents have equal protection under the law. More than 100 cities across America, including 18 inMichigan, have already passed similar nondiscrimination laws - and implemented them successfully.

Would a non-discrimination ordinance create a protected or special class of people?No. Non-discrimination ordinances do not create quotas, affirmative hiring guidelines, or any other kind ofpreferential treatment. What the ordinances do is prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation orgender identity. All hardworking Michiganders should have the chance to earn a living and provide for theirfamilies without fear of being unfairly fired for reasons that have nothing to do with their job performance.

Is a non-discrimination ordinance an effective remedy for this problem?Yes. A non-discrimination ordinance sends a strong message that discrimination is not welcome in our city.And without a non-discrimination ordinance gay people can legally lose their jobs, their homes, and berefused service at public accommodations with no recourse under the law.

Isn.t there already a federal law that prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and genderidentity?No. There is no federal legislation that offers protection against discrimination for someone who is gay ortransgender.

Surely there is a state law that prohibits this k ind of discrimination?No. Written in 1976, Michigan.s Elliot-Larsen Civil Rights Act has not yet been amended to include sexualorientation and gender identity. This despite the fact that the District of Columbia and 13 states (California,Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island,Vermont and Washington) all made laws prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation and genderidentity. More than 100 cities across America, including 18 in Michigan, have already passed similarnondiscrimination laws - and implemented them successfully.

Wait. Isn’t this a “ l iberal” issue?No. This is about people not politics. And, in addition to being the morally right thing to do, this is the rightthing to do economically. Our nation’s most productive companies, such as Ford, GM, Herman-Miller,Meijer, Kellogg’s, Disney, AT&T and Google have all had similar policies for years. Also, Chambers ofCommerce, from Ann Arbor to Salt Lake City, have called for statewide laws banning discrimination,because they know discrimination is bad for business.

Do Michiganders want to expand civi l l iberties to include gay and transgender citizens?Yes. Over 65 percent of the Michigan electorate supports amending the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Actaccording to polls conducted in 2010. Polls consistently show that a vast majority of Americans supportworkplace protections for all people. Since Gallup started measuring public opinion on workplace protectionsfor gay people, support has risen from 56 percent in the 1970s to 89 percent today. Across the board, themajority of Americans believe employment decisions should be based on a person’s qualifications and workethic.

So does this t. pe of discrimination really happen?Ye. . There are scores of documented cases of discrimination in Michigan every year and hundreds morethat go undocumented. A non-discrimination ordinance will help communities put a stop to these instances

of intolerance.

Wil l a non-discrimination ordinance adversely affect the business community?No. A non-discrimination ordinance will not affect the business community at all. The only thing a business

needs to do to be in compliance with the ordinance is not discriminate. In fact, business leaders across

America have continually called for gay and transgender protections because they know good, talentedworkers are attracted to tolerant cities and workplaces.

I think that being gay is a choice; do civi l rights apply to choices?For decades our civil rights laws have protected us from discrimination based on other choices, such as our

choice to practice a faith. Whether being gay is actually a choice, the fact remains that discrimination isunnecessary, divisive and counterproductive.

I think that homosexuality is a sin; does this ordinance prevent me from vocalizing my beliefs?No. Americans are entitled to equal protections under the law, meaning that all people are entitled to theirrights of freedom of speech. The ordinance does not require that anyone change their mind or their religious

philosophy, it simply prohibits discrimination against people that are perceived to be gay or transgender.

What about rel igious institutions?The legislation exempts religious activities, religious organizations, and schools and institutions of higher

learning owned or operated by a religious organization. A religious institutions could limit employment

opportunities, housing facilities or accommodations that are operated as a direct part of the religious

activities to persons who are members of or who conform to the moral tenets of that religious institution.

PROCLAMATION WHEREAS, Pets provide companionship to more than 71,000,000 households in

the United States; and WHEREAS, Humane organizations and animal shelters have to put down more

than four million cats, dogs, rabbits and other animals each year, many of whom are healthy and adoptable, due to a lack of critical resources and public awareness; and

WHEREAS, This tragic overpopulation of pets costs citizens and taxpayers of this

country millions of dollars annually through animal service programs aimed at coping with the millions of homeless animals; and

WHEREAS, Spaying and neutering has been shown to dramatically reduce the

overpopulation of pets and feral cats, proving to be a wise investment in saving animal lives and taxpayer dollars; and

WHEREAS, Veterinarians, national and local animal protection organizations, and

private citizens worked together to ensure the spaying or neutering of more than 44,000 pets and feral cats through “Spay Day” in the United States in 2011;and

WHEREAS, Veterinarians, national and local animal protection organizations, and

private citizens have joined together again to advocate the spaying and neutering of pets and feral cats “Spay Day 2012”

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Bruce Kilmer, Mayor of the City of Mount Pleasant, do hereby

proclaim February 28, 2012,

SPAY DAY in Mount Pleasant, Michigan and call upon the people of Mt.

Pleasant, Michigan to observe the day by having their own pets spayed or neutered or by sponsoring the spaying or neutering of another person’s pet or of an animal in a shelter awaiting adoption.

In Witness Whereof, I hereunto set my hand and the Great Seal of the City of Mount Pleasant, Michigan, this 27th day of February, 2012. _______________________________________ Bruce Kilmer, Mayor City of Mount Pleasant, Michigan

City Hires New DPW Director

After a lengthy search, Roger H. Rousse was hired as the Director

of Public Works in October 2011, replacing Duane F. Ellis who

retired December 31, 2010, after 26½ years of service to the

City of Mt. Pleasant. Roger previously served as the Director of

Engineering/Public Services for the City of Rochester Hills,

Michigan.

February 2012

Dear Commissioners:

On behalf of the reliable men and women who attentively work for the City

of Mt. Pleasant’s Division of Public works, I present our 2011 Annual Report for your

review. Even with difficult economic conditions, it is moving to evaluate what we, as

a Division, can still achieve. Over the previous four years, we have reduced staffing

within the Division by one engineer, one assistant superintendent of wastewater, one

motor pool mechanic, one light equipment operator, and one water treatment plant

operator. At the same time, we continued to supply a wide range of public works

services. I commend the Division staff for their sustained efforts to improve

efficiency while maintaining budgetary restraint. Upon review of this report, you will

see that we continue to function at a high level by supporting a work environment

that taps into the creativity and thoughtfulness of our employees. The subsequent

pages offer a summary of the Division of Public Works, its multiple departments,

staffing information, statistical figures, and the hard work made towards meeting the

vision of the of Mt. Pleasant City Commission.

Sincerely,

Roger H. Rousse, Director

The Division of Public Works is comprised of the Engineering, Motor

Pool, Street, Wastewater, and Water Departments, along with the

Mt. Pleasant Municipal Airport. From maintaining the streets, to

ensuring our water is safe, to fueling corporate aircraft that utilize

our airport, the Division of Public Works Team is committed to

providing the highest quality services to the residents and visitors

Who We Are and What We Do

of the City of Mt. Pleasant in the most efficient, cost-effective and

dependable manner possible, both now and for years to come.

Mt. Pleasant Municipal Airport

The Mt. Pleasant Municipal Airport is located 1.5 miles northeast

of the City limits and is categorized as a T-4 General Utility airport.

The 5,000’ x 100’ main runway can accommodate all general aviation

aircraft and corporate business aircraft that carry up to 30 passengers.

A 2,500’ x 160’ turf crosswind runway is also available for general

aviation aircraft.

The airport is serviced by a real time weather station (AWOS),

which is accessible by radio, telephone, or personal computer, and

has both Vertical Omni Range Distance Measuring Equipment

(VOR DME) and Global Positioning System (GPS) published

approaches that allow use of the airport during inclement weather

conditions. conditions.

In addition, there are 32 T-hangars that house aircraft

based at this field. A 48’ x 56’ storage facility, built in 2005, houses

the airport’s snow removal equipment and serves as a

maintenance building for the airport. The City also owns a 120’ x

120’ x 30’ corporate hangar that houses four permanently based

corporate aircraft. A second City-owned corporate hangar is leased

to Gateway Air, the Fixed Base Operator (FBO) service at the

airport.

EngineeringThe Engineering Department provides technical and administrative

support services to each of the departments within the Division of Public

Works, Planning, Building, Assessing, and other City departments. The

Engineering Team is responsible for the design of Capital Improvement

Projects including sanitary sewer and storm sewer main lines, parking lots,

sidewalk, water mains, small buildings, and street reconstruction. For most

projects, the Engineering Department provides all of the technical services

required to complete the projects including field surveying, design, construction

administration, and inspection services.

In addition, the Engineering Team is responsible for reviewing site plans and

inspection of all construction that occurs within the City’s rights-of-way. Each

site plan is reviewed for conformance with the development standards of the site plan is reviewed for conformance with the development standards of the

City. This work is coordinated with the Building and Planning Departments,

Planning Commission, and the Zoning Board of Appeals.

The Engineering Team continues to develop the City’s Geographic Information

System (GIS). Currently, the GIS system includes maps of the City’s water and

sanitary sewer mains, street system, property parcels, storm sewers, street

trees, building footprints, streetlights, and general topographic information.

The Street Department is responsible for the maintenance of 75.52 miles of city

streets. Beyond working on major Capital Improvement Projects, the Department

works to improve the street system, sidewalks, and the sanitary and storm sewer

systems associated with the streets. The Street Department also performs the

street sweeping, snow removal, sanitary sewer main line cleaning, sign maintenance,

fall yard waste collection, tree removal and trimming, spring tree planting, brush

chipping, banner installation, decorative streetlight maintenance, and pick up and

disposal of holiday trees.

The Motor Pool Department and Central Stores operations are also included within

the Street Department. Central Stores provides miscellaneous supplies, such as

traffic cones and barricades, to each of the departments within the Division of Public

Works. Motor Pool manages the fuel purchases for City departments and purchased

Street and Motor Pool

approximately 9,331 gallons of diesel and 20,000 gallons of unleaded fuels in 2011.

In addition, Motor Pool provides and maintains approximately 190 vehicles and

equipment for use by the Parks, Engineering, Water, and Wastewater Departments,

as well as for the Code Enforcement officers. All maintenance and purchase of

vehicles and heavy equipment is conducted by the Motor Pool staff, with the

exception of those vehicles used by the Public Safety Division. When the Street

Department is short-staffed or in cases where deadlines are crucial, the Motor Pool

mechanic is used in the field as an additional CDL operator.

In 2011, the Motor Pool staff completed 452 work orders, generating a total cost

of $109,512. The most common maintenance and repair types were preventative

maintenance of City vehicles, such as oil changes, followed by the maintenance of

tires and snow plow equipment, and finally special application repairs. Motor Pool

uses a paperless shop application in their software management system and all data

is entered by the mechanic in real time.

WastewaterThe Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is responsible for treating all

residential and commercial sanitary sewage generated within the City

limits. Sewage is transported through the City’s collection system, which

includes 15 lift stations. Pumps raise the liquid to a level from which it

can flow by gravity to the wastewater plant. The WWTP is an advanced

secondary plant that utilizes primary sedimentation, bio towers, rotating

biological contactors, final clarification, chlorination and de-chlorination

for treatment of wastewater.

The Wastewater Department staff are responsible for repairs and

maintenance to the equipment at the plant, as well as the lift stations.

Department staff also monitor and perform laboratory analysis on the

sewage as it undergoes treatment at the plant. The treated sewage

must meet stringent State and Federal standards before it can be

discharged to the Chippewa River.

The Wastewater Treatment Plant is a Michigan Department of

Environmental Quality (MDEQ) approved septage receiving station,

and as such accepts septage from septic tank waste haulers. Approx-

imately 18 area septic waste haulers utilize the City of Mt. Pleasant’s

septage receiving station.

All plant operators are required to hold a minimum of a Class D

Wastewater Treatment license as issued by the MDEQ. Combined, the

Wastewater Department staff has exceeded MDEQ standards by obtaining

Class A, B, and C Wastewater Treatment licenses. The operators attend

many training courses throughout the year to stay updated on changes

in the industry.

WaterThe Water Treatment Plant treats and pumps water to the

City’s water distribution system for fire protection and

delivery to customers on a 24-hours per day, seven-day-a-week

basis. The plant operates under Michigan Department of

Environmental Quality and United States Environmental Protection

Agency laws to ensure that public health requirements are met for

potable water distribution to city residents. The Water Department

staff are responsible for the operation and repair of plant

equipment, as well as the installation, operation, and maintenance

of the system's water mains, valves, service leads, meters, and 862

hydrants. The staff also performs laboratory testing required for

quality control and to meet State and Federal guidelines. Each year,

approximately 658 million gallons of water are distributed throughapproximately 658 million gallons of water are distributed through

the system.

Our Goals: The City of Mt. Pleasant will work toward

being a community…

�With stable funding from a diverse tax base to finance the

government services citizens need

�That finds logical solutions to the problems of traffic congestion

�Of safe and clean neighborhoods with low crime rates and low

vacancy rates that are inhabited by multi-generational owner-vacancy rates that are inhabited by multi-generational owner-

occupants

�Where economic opportunity for businesses offering good wages

for employees is readily available

� Received a Consumers Energy rebate of $2,077.62 for the installation of energy efficient lighting and room occupancy sensors at the DPW building

� Rebuilt the grit screw at the wastewater plant using a new hardened stainless steel housing that was fabricated locally. The grit screw is part of a system that removes heavy

� Decrease energy consumption at both plants

• Real-time power monitoring equipment was added to the SCADA system at the water treatment plant, high service pump station, and Ranney Well building. The SCADA interface was modified to report daily electrical consumption.

…With stable funding from a diverse tax base to

finance the government services citizens need

How? By reducing and/or maintaining operational costs at the

DPW building, water and wastewater treatment plants to provide

affordable service to our customers and delay rate increases.

The grit screw is part of a system that removes heavy inorganics like pebbles, sand, etc., from the sewage to protect downstream processing equipment.

� Installed a new dry pit submersible pump at the Watson Street wastewater lift station. The new pump replaced an old shaft-driven pump that required excessive maintenance.

� Investigate ways to reduce the costs for sludge disposal at the water treatment plant

The Water Department staff has contacted local farmers togauge interest in direct sludge delivery. In addition, a labscale Geotube® pilot project was completed in 2011. Thepurpose of the pilot project was to evaluate ways to improvethe lime sludge disposal process. A larger pilot project isplanned for the spring of 2012.

� Two chemical feed pumps at the water plant were replaced with new energy efficient units of the same type as those installed at the wastewater plant. This will allow parts and expertise to be shared between staff at both plants.

• The Wastewater Department experimented with higher levels in the wet wells to increase pumping efficiency. Staff determined that we are able to shut down one 100hp tower pump during the low-flow summer months. In addition, six 5hp RBC motors should be able to be shut down safely during the same time period, which will save on energy costs.

• New energy saving MultiTrode control panels were installed at the South Isabella Road and East Broadway Street wastewater lift stations.

• The Isabella Corporation rebuilt the Industrial Drive lift station to run more energy efficiently.

• Replaced an expensive progressive cavity secondary sludge (wastewater) pump with an easily maintainable centrifugal pump.

• Installed four new Mission cell-to-web alarm units at critical wastewater lift stations. The new alarm units replaced unreliable phone-line alarms and transmit valuable data to the wastewater plant and employee cell phones.

How? By maintaining the septage receiving station at the wastewater treatment plant to generate an alternative source of revenue to help delay or prevent rate increases.The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) requires septage companies who perform work

within a 15-mile radius of a septage receiving facility to empty their tank loads at that facility. In return for

the increased amount of septage, wastewater plants are allowed to charge the septic haulers a fee for this

service. Currently, the fee at the City of Mt. Pleasant’s Wastewater Plant is $0.09 per gallon multiplied by

80% of the truck tank’s capacity. The fee is comparable to the amount charged at other regional wastewater

plants. The fee is charged each time the hauler empties a tank load, rounded to the nearest whole dollar

amount. For example, if a septic hauler’s truck tank has a 2,000 gallon capacity, the fee charged would be

$144.

2,000 gals x 80% = 1,600 gals x $0.09 = $144.00

This MDEQ requirement has reduced the amount of septage that can be land applied in Michigan and

allowed wastewater treatment plants to generate critical revenue through their septage receiving stations. allowed wastewater treatment plants to generate critical revenue through their septage receiving stations.

The septage receiving station at the City’s wastewater plant has generated over $475,000 between 2008-

2011. At present, 18 septage haulers utilize the City’s septage receiving station.

How? By reviewing the Engineering Department work process

to increase efficiency and maximize construction funds.

In order to identify the highest priority items for 2011, the Engineering Department staff performed an

in depth review of the recommendations as described in the Engineering Best Practices Study

completed in 2010 by the consulting firm of Prein & Newhof. As a result of this intense review, the

Engineering Department adopted many of the Michigan Department of Transportation construction

standards into the specifications for the 2011 Fancher and Chippewa Street Reconstruction Projects. In

addition, the internal and external stakeholders for both projects were identified using the project

management format, also as identified in the Best Practices Study. A post-construction meeting was

held with the contractors to evaluate the revised construction plans and specifications, and the overall held with the contractors to evaluate the revised construction plans and specifications, and the overall

structure of the Fancher Street Project. The Engineering Department is currently using a multi-

consultant format of project execution.

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER EXTENSION OF EXISTING CONTRACT FOR RESIDENTIAL

FIELD ASSESSING SERVICES Attached is a communication from City Assessor David Rowley recommending an extension of the City’s contract for field assessing services. In 2010, with the retirement of a long-time Assessor Level II, the City began contracting out certain field inspection and verification functions. After an advertisement for proposals the City chose to work with Brenda Beach. Ms. Beach has agreed to maintain her 2011 rates for 2012 and 2013. Mr. Rowley is satisfied with the quality and quantity of the work performed under this contract and is certain the cost is reasonable and very competitive. It is recommended the City Commission extend the contract between the City of Mt. Pleasant and Brenda Beach through December 31, 2013 and authorize the Mayor and Clerk to execute the document. KSG/ap

MEMORANDUM

TO: Kathie Grinzinger FROM: David S. Rowley DATE: February 22, 2012 SUBJECT: Assessing Services Residential Field Work Contract Renewal During the latter part of 2010, the City contracted with an independent contractor, Brenda Beach, to perform our annual residential property record card review and residential new construction inspections. Such a contract was necessary due to the decision to eliminate the position upon the retirement of the Assessment Technician in June, 2010. After the initial 2010 contract, the City Commission granted its approval to extend the assessing services agreement with Brenda for the year of 2011. This extension was part of the original bid for services and the desire for a two-year trial period. Brenda is a Michigan Assessing Officer and performed her job in an appropriate and professional manner for both years.

Based on the ongoing residential field work, a recommendation is made for a new two-year agreement. Brenda has stated her willingness to maintain the exact terms and dollar rate per parcel for the next two years. A new two-year agreement would serve the assessing department for its residential field work needs for both 2012 and 2013. Such an agreement would expire on December 31, 2013. Therefore, I do respectfully request that an item be placed on the City Commission’s agenda for Monday February 27, 2012 in which the Commission is asked to approve a new two year renewal contract for residential assessing services as follows: Consider approval of a two year renewal contract for the years of 2012 and 2013 with Brenda Beach of Stanwood, Michigan in an amount of $40 per residential record card review and $30 per parcel for residential new construction, not to exceed $21,000 per year, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute said contract. Please advise should you have any questions or wish any additional information.



FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER CONFIRMATION OF A CONTRACT WITH SPICER GROUP

FOR DESIGN SERVICES ON MICHIGAN STREET Each year the City attempts to reconstruct one or two sections of street. In 2012, because of a grant received from the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), Michigan Street from Fancher to Washington will be rebuilt. Noting the age of the street, its utilities and the contiguous downtown construction, this project is expected to be quite complicated. Therefore, it is critical that the engineering and specifications sent out to bid to private contractors be as clear and complete as possible. The timely completion of the design and bid package in accordance with MDOT standards is equally crucial since MDOT sets the monthly bid letting in accordance with the community’s submission. Because of the extent of this project, the City had always hoped for an early bidding process. In the midst of the design stage for Michigan Street the City found itself without a professional staff engineer to lead the process. To try to keep the engineering phase moving along as quickly as possible and to keep communication between the City and MDOT as seamless as possible it was necessary to put a qualified professional (civil) engineer (PE) on the project immediately. The City Manager contracted with Spicer Group to complete the engineering design of the Michigan Street project, construct the specification and bidding packages and collaborate with MDOT engineers to assure any and all requirements from the field grade inspection were met. Spicer Group was selected because they were readily familiar with the inclusion of Michigan Street into the City’s capital planning process and had managed the early stages of conceptual planning while serving as Interim Director for the DPW Division the previous year. Attached is a communication from Public Works Director Roger Rousse who is responsible for monitoring the agreement between the City and Spicer. It is recommended the Commission confirm the agreement with Spicer Group to complete all necessary engineering and associated tasks on the Michigan Street project at a cost not to exceed $51,000. KSG/ap

MEMORANDUM

TO: Kathie Grinzinger, City Manager FROM: Roger Rousse, Public Works Director DATE: February 22, 2012 SUBJECT: Spicer Group’s Final Billing for Michigan Streetscape

In the absence of a Staff Engineer, the City hired Spicer Group to complete the design plans which included the following:

1. Review of plans, special provisions, and cost estimates created by the

Mt Pleasant engineering staff 2. Set-up of Micro-station files 3. Review of storm sewer sizing and grades, and identification of any

utility conflicts 4. Revision of the program application 5. Numerous plan revisions 6. Creation of special provisions

It is my recommendation that final payment be made to Spicer Group, in an

amount not to exceed $51,000. This will complete the design phase of the Michigan Street project planned for the 2012 construction season.

Thank you for your consideration of this request.



FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF CONTRACT WITH OHM FOR

CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT OF MICHIGAN STREET During the construction season of 2012 the City will be reconstructing Michigan Street between Fancher and Washington Streets. The project will include several improvements including:

• Storm sewer rebuild • Sidewalk and curb reconstruction • Curb extensions at intersections/crosswalks • Streetscape installation • Compliance with all new requirements of the American for Disability Act • Rebuild of street bed and new asphalt

The cost of this project will be partially covered by an urban grant from Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT). To comply with MDOT requirements and to ensure a quality product it is necessary to name a qualified professional engineer (PE) who will serve as the project manager on the job. Attached is a communication from Public Works Director Roger Rousse explaining the process conducted to secure the services of a project management engineer. It is recommended the Commission contract with Orchard, Hiltz & McCliment, Inc. (OHM) for an amount not to exceed $57,600. Funds to cover the contract will be charged back to the project. The project is financed through the MDOT grant, the Major Street Fund and a transfer of funds from the Economic Development Fund as approved previously by the Commission. The transfer was intended for the streetscape enhancement portion of the project. KSG/ap

FROM: KATHIE S. GRINZINGER, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER GRANTING CHARTER TOWNSHIP OF UNION AN

EASEMENT ON AIRPORT ROAD AND CONSIDER THE SALE OF A SANITARY SEWER LINE

Several years ago the City of Mt. Pleasant constructed a sewer line to serve the Mt. Pleasant Municipal Airport. The line connects to the Charter Township of Union’s sanitary sewer system by way of a lift station and feeds into the Township’s Treatment Facility. It seems logical, therefore, that the Township would also have jurisdiction for maintenance and care of the line. Late in 2011, the City offered to sell the utility structure to the Township for $1.00 which was accepted. In turn the City must grant an easement to the Township. Attached is a communication from Mr. Rousse and copies of the easement document and an appropriate bill of sale. It is recommended the Commission grant an easement for a sanitary line to the Charter Township of Union as well as sell the Township the line itself and authorize the Clerk and Mayor to execute the necessary documents. KSG/ap

CLARK HILL PLC DRAFT 11.22.11

EASEMENT

On this __________ day of _________________, 2012, the City of Mt. Pleasant, a Michigan municipal corporation, of 320 West Broadway, Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858 (the “Grantor”), for the consideration of one dollar ($1.00), the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, grants and conveys to the Charter Township of Union, a Michigan municipal corporation, of 2010 South Lincoln Road, Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858 (the “Grantee”), subject to easements, restrictions and interests of record, a non-exclusive easement to lay, construct, maintain, operate, repair, substitute, remove, enlarge, inspect and replace public sanitary sewer lines and appurtenances (“Utility Work”), in, through, along, under and across a portion of the Grantor’s property located in the Charter Township of Union, Isabella County, Michigan; Township 14 North, Range 4, Section 12, as legally described and depicted on the attached Exhibit A (the “Easement Area”). This Easement is subject to the following terms and conditions: A. Utility Work performed within the Easement Area by the Grantee shall be conducted so as not to unreasonably interfere with the Grantor’s use of its property and/or vehicular traffic on Airport Road and without cost to the Grantor. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Grantee shall notify the Grantor prior to the commencement of any Utility Work within the Easement Area and will communicate and coordinate with the Grantor with respect to such Utility Work in an effort to avoid inconvenience, obstacles, and other hindrances that may impact vehicular traffic on Airport Road.

B. Upon completion of any Utility Work, the Grantee shall restore the surface of the Easement Area as near as practicable to the same condition existing prior to the construction and shall pay the cost of such restoration. C. The Grantor also conveys to the Grantee the right to ingress and egress the Easement Area to perform the purpose above described and agrees that no buildings or other permanent structures shall be constructed within the boundaries of the Easement Area. The Grantor retains all other property rights in the Easement Area. D. The Grantor reserves the right to grant easement rights within the Easement Area to others, but any such rights shall be subject to the Grantee’s prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. All such additional easements shall be subject to the prior rights of the Grantee and additional expenses


incurred by the Grantee in the Grantee’s use of the Easement Area resulting from such additional easements shall be assumed by the parties receiving such additional easements.

E. This instrument shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their representatives, assigns or successors.
