At this summ it, which was held at Comfort Inn in Mt. Pleasant, Consumers met with 70 Michigan-based bus inesses looking for opportunities to buy even more goods and services locally. Prior to the summit, Consumers Energy already had shown great leadership by purchasing over $344,000 in goods and services from 37 businesses in Clare and Isabella counties in 2015 alone. A In November, we partnered with Mid Michigan Community College for the first ever Hops Summit to held in this state. We were able to bring together over 35 people including hops growers, processors, brewers and severa l representatives from the Michigan Department of Agricultu re and Rural Development. We had a wide-ranging discussion on how to expand hops growing and processing in ou r area which will lead to more good paying jobs . I do believe that agricultural processing cou ld be a major growth area for Middle Michigan in the coming years. In the course of preparing thi s annual report, we have updated our Mission and Vision statements and drafted a new Strategic Plan as shown opposite on the inside front cover. The inside back cover lists our current Executive Committee and Board of Directors while the inside pages highlight some success stories from the past year. We also have included some screen shots from our new website which you can check out at www.mmdc.org. Please let us know what you think about our new website! The next few pages will give you more details about some of the economic development successes we've had this year. These achievements were made possible by all of our supporters, board members and business leaders and our incredible staff. I would especially like to thank Rick Barz for filling in the role of Interim President before I joined the team in July. Rick truly d id a fantastic job shepherding this organization through the first half of 2015 .

Dear Friends, s the new President and CEO of the Middle Michigan Development Corporation, I am very pleased to present our 20 15 Annual Report. For the past twelve years, I served as Vice President and Senior Advisor for the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. Working with five different CEO's at the MEDC, I learned a great deal about economic development. Now I am really excited to bring what I've learned to the local level. MMDC by itself doesn't create jobs, but we do provide essential services to area businesses who do create jobs. One of the most critical issues facing our businesses today is finding the right talent for the available jobs. To assist our employers in finding the talent they need, we work closely with the Mt. Pleasant Career Technical Center, the Clare-Gladwin Career Technical Center, Mid Michigan Community College's M-TEC Center and Central Michigan University's School of Engineering and Technology and College of Business Administration. Sincerely, r#~ JAMES MCBRYDE President and Chief Executive Officer MMDC STEP GRANTS FOR MORBARK AND BANDIT TO BOOST EXPORTS MMDC worked with Morbark to secure nine State Trade and Export Promotion (STEP) grants covering the period of 2013 to 2015 to assist Morbark in boosting their exports worldwide.

They also met extensively with various business, industry, and education leaders from all eight counties represented in the Great Lakes Bay Region. STEELHEAD INDUSTRIES In September, MMDC and the City of Mt. Pleasant met with Steel head Industries, which began operating in April of 2015. They are leasing the former Chippewa Beverage facility and currently are working two shifts with a staff of 21 employees primarily building manufacturing racks for Ford stamping plants. To date, one of their successes has been to perfect the "swing arm" feature for their racking systems that none of Ford's previous suppliers were able to do. Steelhead also plans to build a unique design of pontoon boat trailer when their non-compete agreement ends in April of 2016. At that time, Steelhead anticipates expanding to 80 to 85 employees. CONSUMER'S ENERGY PURE MICHIGAN BUSINESS CONNECT SUMMIT In October, Consumers Energy Senior Vice-President John Butler, MEDC's Trevor Pawl, Mt.

The company's investment of $8.7 million in the new center as well as·the 36 good paying jobs to be stationed there will have a big impact on the community.

Pleasant City Commission From: James McBryde, President Middle Michigan Development Corporation Date: March 21, 2016 Subject: 2015 IFT Report I am forwarding this report of job creation and retention for 2015 for companies that received tax abatement in 2014 and prior years. These tax abatements issued by the City of Mt. Pleasant were approved for construction of buildings or additions to existing buildings either classified as real property or the purchase of non-real estate assets that would be classified as personal property. Non real estate assets were primarily for machinery and equipment or assets of similar status. These abatements were for economic development projects in the Mt. Pleasant North Industrial Park, the Mt. Pleasant South Industrial Park and University Park. In addition to the 91 new jobs that were created by all companies listed on the report during 2015, another 272.5 jobs were retained by these companies. The action by the City Commission to approve these tax abatements was instrumental in the decisions of these area companies to remain here and further invest in our local economy. Last year’s highlight, Dayco Corporation, a global manufacturing company, decided to consolidate and expand their statewide operations in the Mt. Pleasant South Industrial Park. Rather than consolidating their other state-wide holdings operations elsewhere, Dayco leased a 40,000 square foot addition, which was constructed by a local company. The company’s decision was heavily influenced by the city’s willingness to approve the key property tax abatements. The result was that the company’s 114 existing employees remained in Mt. Pleasant and an additional 71 net employees to their payroll during this reporting year. Overall I am very pleased to say that the tax abatements approved by the City of Mt. Pleasant in prior years have continued to play a major role in the rebounding of our economy. We hope to see more expansion as a result of these tax abatements as we progress through 2016.

Once the easements are successfully obtained, 95% of this cost will be reimbursed to the City through federal and state funds. The contract being recommended for signature is a standard contract required by FAA and the Michigan Department of Transportation Department of Aeronautics. The City Attorney has reviewed the contract and approved its form and content. Attached is the most relevant piece of the contract which is an attachment that outlines the work to be performed to obtain the avigation easements.

E-4 COMMISSION LETTER #052-16 MEETING DATE: MARCH 28, 2016 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION MARCH 23, 2016 FROM: NANCY RIDLEY, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: RECEIVE AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND TITLE IX, CHAPTER 93, SECTIONS 93.01, 93.02, AND 93.12 OF THE MOUNT PLEASANT CITY CODE REGARDING ADOPTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FIRE CODE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT CONNECTIONS AND SET A PUBLIC HEARING FOR APRIL 11, 2016 ON THE SAME Chapter 93 of our current City Code references adherence to the 2006 edition of the International Fire Code. The State of Michigan has adopted a 2012 Michigan Building Code which references the 2012 edition of the Fire Code. This discrepancy creates conflict as contractors/developers must adhere to two different codes. We are therefore recommending Chapter 93 of the Mt. Pleasant City Code be amended to provide references to the most recent International Fire Code to be consistent with the Building Code. The draft ordinance is attached for your review as well as a strike-out version of the current ordinance illustrating the changes. These amendments were drafted by the City Attorney. Recommended Motion Move to set a public hearing for April 11, 2016 on the proposed changes to Chapter 93 of the City Code regarding the International Fire Code and Fire Department Connections. NJR/ap Memo TO: Nancy Ridley, City Manager FROM: Brian Kench, Building Official Randy Keeler, Fire Lieutenant DATE: Thursday, March 10, 2016 The State of Michigan adopted the 2012 Michigan Building Code that went into effect state-wide on October 9, 2014. The new code references portions of the 2012 edition of the International Fire Code, which conflicts with Chapter 93.01 of the City Code. In an effort to ensure continuity between the building code and the City's adopted Fire Code, staff is recommending amendments to chapter 93 of the City Code (copy of the amendments are attached). The updates will prevent developers and builders from trying to comply with two separate editions of the International Fire Code. In addition, our standards will be consistent with those being enforced by our Fire personnel in Union Township. REQUESTED ACTION: Staff is recommending the City Commission set a public hearing to consider the changes to chapter 93, being the Fire Prevention Code, at their March 28, 2016 meeting to be held on April 11, 2016. Following the public hearing, it is recommended that the City Commission approve the updates to chapter 93 as reviewed by our legal counsel.

Description of Project This project focuses on repair and upgrade of the septic system for the heavily used restroom facility at Chipp-A-Waters Park. This restroom facility has been in operation for many years and is one of the few that is not directly connected to the City’s municipal sewer system. Connection to the City’s system is cost prohibitive because of following factors: 1) Distance from existing City sewer connection point 2) Requires construction and ongoing maintenance of a sewage lift station for operation 3) Requires excavation of a major state and city intersection to accomplish connection The drain field for the septic system is failing and is in need of repair and upgrade to help prolong the use of the restroom and safeguard the nearby Chippewa River corridor. B. Brief description of the project benefits to the Tribe, community, and governmental service area The City Parks Department maintains 11 restroom facilities within the Mt. Pleasant Park system. Park and river users from the local community including the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe will benefit from the improved and up-to-date park facilities. The Chipp-A-Waters restroom facility is heavily used as it services park activities including shelter reservations, tubers, canoeists, kayakers as well as trail users and the Girl Scout Cabin that is located in the park. C. Long-term funding requirements and how those requirements will be met. The City of Mt. Pleasant’s operational budget includes ongoing funds to maintain the restroom facility with scheduled septic tank pumping and maintenance which would allow the facility to be successfully operated well into the future. 2 D.

Brief description of the project benefits to the Tribe, community, and governmental service area Existing Riverwalk Trail amenities such as bridges, decks, boardwalks, and viewing platforms are important connectors to the main trail and provide trail and park visitors with additional options to access view and interact with nature. These structures allow user access and at the same time serve to protect the sensitive riverbank from erosion. Due to these structure locations along the river, they are susceptible to annual flooding and damage during high water events. The quality and safety of the trail system has been a source of local pride for visitors and citizens from the area as they enjoy walking, biking, and nature viewing along the Chippewa River Corridor. Taking a proactive approach to protecting the Chippewa River’s natural and man-made resources is paramount to preserving healthy infrastructure and leisure enjoyment well into the future. This project strives to: Ø Protect and enhance our local trail resources keeping it vibrant, safe and up to date Ø Reduce maintenance on riverbanks and river related infrastructure Ø Protect natural and man-made resources directly impacted by the river Ø Serve as a cooperative example for others to protect and improve the health of the Chippewa River corridor Ø Partner with the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe working together to secure available local resources to protect resources along Chippewa River C. Long-term funding requirements and how those requirements will be met. The City of Mt. Pleasant has funds in its operational budget to pay for annual maintenance costs for minor deck repairs along the riverbank and seasonal removal of log jams to help protect river resources. D.

PLEASE SEE PAGE TWO FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS. 1 A. Please give a description of the project, providing as much detail as possible. The PEAK program stands for Partners Empowering All Kids and is a partnership between the City of Mt. Pleasant, Mt. Pleasant Public Schools and Isabella County United Way. PEAK has worked collaboratively with Isabella County United Way on multiple special events in order to provide children with enrichment and volunteer opportunities in order to provide food and school supplies for those in need in the Mt. Pleasant community. PEAK is entering its 16th 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 all five Mount Pleasant Public School elementary schools (Fancher, Ganiard, McGuire, Pullen, Vowles) and West Intermediate every school day for two hours – serving area children grades K-8. The PEAK Summer Camp program operates for 8-10 weeks during the summer at Ganiard Elementary, Vowles Elementary, McGuire Elementary and West Intermediate from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM. Historically, PEAK has submitted separate 2% applications for the elementary school age group (grades k-6) and the middle school age group (grades 7-8). However, after extensive program evaluation in 2015, these groups have been combined in order to provide consistency and commonality across the PEAK program. This restructuring will provide the program with more financial and procedural oversight that will create more consistent programming and operation from top to bottom. 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, John Ball Zoo, The Jump Station, Therapy Dogs International and many other area businesses and organizations. We are currently working with CMU’s Office of Native American Programs and the Niijkewehn Mentoring Program on ways in which we can collaborate and work together for a stronger community. In addition, we are currently talking with Erik Rodriguez, SCIT Interim Public Relations Director, on implementing Native American cultural programming into our afterschool curriculum. 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. 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 3 child has the opportunity to participate in the program and enjoy all the benefits – regardless of their ability to pay. B. Please give a brief description of the project benefits to the Tribe, community, and governmental service area. 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 is a great number of area children who simply do not have a 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 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 culture 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. C. Please state the long-term funding requirements (if applicable) and how those requirements will be met. The 21st Century Grant that 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 4 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 fees, fundraising and other available grants while decreasing the portion requested form 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. Therefore, the PEAK program is requesting approximately 30 percent of the total funds needed to continue to provide the K-8 grade PEAK program to children and families in the community as it currently exists.

PLEASE SEE PAGE TWO FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS. 1 A. Description of Project This project intends to install regulatory signage at City owned property near the Airport including Indian Pines Park to preserve valuable natural resources. This undeveloped area is City owned land located in Union Township just north of the Mt. Pleasant Municipal Airport and encompasses 222 acres of natural upland and wetlands. Due to recent activity, precautions are needed to enforce the preservation of the natural environment in this area. For public safety and environmental protection purposes, the City proposes to install boundary signage to help identify the use area and promote natural resource stewardship by prohibiting the following within the boundaries: • Hunting • Tree Cutting • Use of Motorized vehicles B. Brief description of the project benefits to the Tribe, community, and governmental service area Sometime prior to 1970 the City purchased land north of the airport and then Indian Pines Park became City property in the early 1970’s through a federal Land and Water Conservation Fund Grant. The property is located between the municipal airport on the south and Valley Road on the North with the Chippewa River winding through the property. Because of its distant location from the City limit boundaries and varying typography, monitoring the proper use of this land has been challenging. As a precursor to being able to enforce environmental stewardship and safety concerns on the property, appropriate signage must first be in place. The Tribe, its members, and all area residents will benefit from this project in a number of ways, including protecting the land and river corridor as a natural resource and prohibit uses that are not desired on public land. C. Long-term funding requirements and how those requirements will be met. The City of Mt. Pleasant has funds in its operational budget to pay for annual maintenance costs for the signage. D. Itemized Budget $25,000 Includes: • Purchase of appropriate Signs and Posts per DNR standards • Surveying to identify correct property boundary’s & sign placements • Clearing for sign post placements • Installation of signs on property boundaries in wetland and upland areas every 100 feet encompassing 222 acres. 2 The Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan 7070 East Broadway Rd.

Please give a brief description of the project, providing as much detail as possible. When the building was renovated in 2001 the apparatus bay garage doors were delivered without being painted. The contractor had the interior and exterior of the doors painted, at this time the doors are peeling paint and the gaskets and glazing are deteriorating. This project would replace all the overhead garage doors in the front and back of the Fire Department apparatus bays. The new doors being proposed would be insulated with an R value of 18.1 with a single full view section of glass. The existing doors have an estimated R value of 1.0 . This project would improve our energy efficiency in the fire bay area of the public safety building. The new doors would also contain less glass; the cleaning of the glass in the current doors is contracted as part of the building cleaning contract. B.

PLEASE SEE PAGE TWO FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS. I 2016 Spring 2% Application - Project Description Project Description: The Bay Area Narcotics Enforcement Team (BAY ANET) is a multi-jurisdictional investigative task force. We conduct professional covert investigations into any and all criminal activities, focusing on the manufacture, sale, and distribution of illicit narcotics and controlled substances. Our jurisdictional boundaries include six counties; Bay, Clare, Gladwin, Isabella, Midland and Saginaw. Specific to this application, a six (6) person "street team" (BAYANET-North Team) specializes in major crimes and narcotics investigations within Clare, Gladwin and Isabella counties. This team is dedicated to the specific purpose of addressing those individuals who would take advantage of the financial opportunities within tribal lands. The sale and distribution of illicit drugs continues to impact the family structure, financial status, and overall social structure of the Native Americans who are preyed upon by this specialized criminal element. It is imperative that we recognize the motivation for drug dealers is nothing more than mere greed. With that understanding, we can aggressively investigate and mitigate the opportunity for financial gain. BA YAN ET Detectives are a continued valuable resource for Saginaw Chippewa Tribal Police when investigating all narcotics investigations along with major crimes, such as; armed robbery, physical and sexual assaults, home invasions, and homicide. Narcotics dealers from Saginaw and Grand Rapids continue to recognize the economic impact that tribal monies play into the distribution of narcotics throughout BAYANET's area of responsibility, believed to be a contributing factor leading to the significant rise in heroin and methamphetamine investigations. In 2015, Detectives seized approximately 757 grams of heroin ($189,392.00 street value), an increase of over 400% from 2014. During that same reporting time methamphetamine investigations increased over 200%. Ongoing investigations verified to BAY ANET and other law enforcement agencies, indicated that the distribution of illegal narcotics into the Isabella County region stretches far beyond Michigan's borders. Project Benefits: BAYANET currently has investigations reaching throughout the State of Michigan, and beyond. These investigations, specifically address the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe and surrounding communities. The benefit of a team dedicated primarily to the tribal lands is significant. In 2015 BA YAN ET investigated 79 complaints in Isabella County, 89% of those complaints were investigated on Tribal Reservation Land. The arrests on Tribal Reservation Land increased to 91% of all arrests in Isabella County in 2015. This grant provides for us the ability to maintain an office in the Mt. Pleasant community, which keeps the law enforcement resources here and local. The Michigan State Police (MSP) provides a Detective Lieutenant and Detective Sergeant as supervisors to this team. MSP has also assigned a Detective Trooper to BAYANET- North Team from the Mt. Pleasant Post. MSP pays 100% for the wages/benefits and vehicles for the supervisors and trooper. In addition to this, MSP provides the computers, IT support, police radios, user's fees and additional support staff for property management and administrative processes. This is a $548,076 value and is provided at no additional cost. 1 In conjunction with criminal investigations, BAYANET officers have continually advocated the benefits of education when it comes to deterring citizens from controlled substance use. We have actively pursued opportunities, and prepared informational presentations in order to assist potential victims in making the right choice when confronted with a dilemma involving illicit drugs as well as the new Designer Drugs. In 2015 from January to December, the BAYANET North Team has presented drug education and awareness information to over 202 people in Clare and Isabella Counties. Many of these narcotics and methamphetamine awareness classes have been presented to members of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Reservation. Activity for North Team from January - December 2015/Tribal Land: Comolaints investiqated in Isabella Countv Complaints investigated on Tribal Lands Total Percentaqe of time spent on Tribal Land Total Arrests in Isabella County Arrests on Tribal Lands Total Percentage of Arrests on Tribal Land Total Percentage of Arrest Counts on Tribal Land 79 70 89% 74 67 91% 93% Street Value of Drugs Seized in 2015: During the entire year in 2015, BAYANET as a whole seized a street value of $3,449,900.09 in illegal narcotics. Long-Term Funding Requirements and How They Will Be Met: The investigations conducted by, and the social problems addressed by BAYANET are not ending. With the neutralization of one criminal enterprise, comes the opportunity for alternative criminal enterprises to continue the attack on those weakened by their dependence on controlled substances. Although culmination of a long-term investigation provides disruption to these individuals and the accompanying source for illicit narcotics, it is the constant and unrelenting pressure from covert operations that keep these individuals from setting up permanent business. While the financial obligations of these operations are at times augmented by forfeiture, long-term funding sources are a necessity. (note: in recent years close to $600,000 in forfeiture monev has been used to offset North Team cost./ As forfeiture seizures drop and expenses increase, we have had to make adjustments to our operations and ask our partnering agencies to pick up additional costs. They too understand the value of BAYANET, the vital partnership that the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe provides with the generous gift of 2% money and they (Central Michigan University PD, Clare County Sheriff Dept. and Mt. Pleasant City PD) continue to dedicate funding and human resources to BAYANET. The partnership of the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe, local law enforcement partners and the MSP is truly a value added service to this community. Value of 2% Grant: The 2% grant is the starting point for the true value of the BAYANET/Saginaw Chippewa Tribe partnership. Along with the receivership of the 2% grant, MSP commits another $548,076 in resources for vehicles, computers and personnel. Central Michigan University PD, Clare County Sheriff Dept. and Mt. Pleasant City PD commit personnel to the team - a value of well over $250,000. 2 This grant continues to return over one million dollars in benefit to the local area. This would not be possible without the generous 2% gift provided by the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Youth and Community Services Unit is a collaborative effort of police, schools, parents, business and community members working together to positively impact our youth and their environment. Police officers with the Youth and Community Services Unit are involved with our kids at an early age establishing relationships and continuing those throughout their school years, interacting with kids in an encouraging manner and providing guidance and support when needed. Members of the unit serve as positive role models through leadership, education, guidance and intervention. Officers are involved in school and community events ensuring high visibility and being approachable to citizens as well as guests. The officers serve as a liaison between Mt. Pleasant Public Schools, business, private organizations, law enforcement agencies, juvenile, adult and Tribal courts, prosecutors, media, CMH, DHS, PEAK and CMU. Officers work with the school staff and Native American Advocates to mentor, coach and educate students on various topics, including internet safety, bullying, school violence, problem solving, and tobacco, drug and alcohol abuse. Youth and Community Services officers work in conjunction with residents, apartment managers and neighborhood groups to reduce and prevent crime in their neighborhoods and apartment complexes. They coordinate efforts with Code Enforcement and the Fire Department through the Neighborhood Resource Unit to eliminate code violations and blight in our neighborhoods providing a safer and cleaner community. Funding requested is crucial for this unit to deliver a high level of service. In order to design, conduct and participate in events that benefit our kids and community and stave off further cuts, two-percent funding is needed. Two-percent funding would allow us to keep officers in the schools, at after school functions, be present at community events and neighborhood meetings, while also being proactive in reducing, preventing and responding to crime. B. PROJECT BENEFITS TO THE TRIBE, COMMUNITY AND GOVERNMENTAL AREAS: The primary focus is on our youth, participating in their lives as both professionals and mentors to enhance their ability to learn, enjoy life and thrive as members of our community. The majority of our student contact is through the Mt. Pleasant Schools which serves approximately 4,400 students the latest count indicates 530 are Native American students. The Youth and Community Services Unit further strives in making our community a safe, clean and inviting environment for all who live, work and visit. The Youth and Community Services Unit will continue to lead and participate in programs which benefit not only our children, but our entire community. Studies have shown the most effective deterrent to school violence is a police presence in schools. For this reason, amongst others it is important that we keep this resource available. A consistent police presence will help achieve a safe learning environment while students attend class. More time spent with the students strengthens our relationships and builds trust and confidence with each other. Supplies and training are needed for our day to day activities, this information, whether it is in the form of a handout, presentation or counseling is passed along to students, faculty and parents. Crossing guards are required at certain intersections near our Elementary Schools. They help ensure the safety of our young children crossing streets when arriving and leaving school. 804 East High Street, Mount Pleasant, MI 48858 Phone: 989.779.5100 Fax: 989.773.4020 www.mt-pleasant.org C. LONG TERM FUNDING REQUIREMENTS AND HOW THOSE REQUIREMENTS WILL BE MET: There are ongoing funding requirements for the program. The entire unit is comprised of three police officers and the crossing guards at most schools. The City General Fund covers one-half of the total cost of the unit. The remaining half of the program is currently funded through Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) monies through the City of Mt. Pleasant, Tribal 2% funds and donations. The Youth and Community Services Unit has partnered with the Mt. Pleasant Public Schools to seek funding from various sources. D.

PLEASE SEE PAGE TWO FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS. · 1 A. Project Description: This funding request is to provide funds to support the basic operation of the airport for the next year. In order to provide the necessary funds for the basic operation of the Mt. Pleasant Municipal Airport, the City has had to contribute $40,000 - $50,000 per year from the General Fund. The subsidy is increasing due to a decline in revenue from T-Hanger vacancies and reductions in fuel sales, as well as higher personnel costs to provide appropriate service levels. Because of State revenue sharing reductions and increased cost pressures, the City continues to face a budget challenge such that the increasing needs of the airport compete with other City services. In 2006, reductions in the Airport budget were implemented that could have reduced the level of service and maintenance at the airport. In 2005, the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe provided $50,000 to assist in funding airport operations and in 2008, 2014, and 2015 provided $40,000. This 2% funding will provide the needed support. Additional funding is desired to provide required operations. B. Project Benefits To The Tribe, Community, And Governmental Service Area: Due to the poor economic climate in Michigan, the usage of the airport is changing and requiring additional funding from the general fund. The Mt. Pleasant Airport is a major gateway to the Tribal community’s casino and resort operations. Many entertainers appreciate the convenience and service that they experience at the airport when coming to perform at the resort. The additional funding from the Tribe would remove a portion of the operational subsidy from being dependent on the general fund. If the basic funding of the airport is cut, then the ability to provide essential services to the Tribal community’s visitors and business associates will have to be reduced. C. Long-Term Funding Requirements (if applicable) And How Those Requirements Will Be Met: D.

PLEASE SEE PAGE TWO FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS. 1 Project Description: The City’s Engineering Department recently completed an evaluation of all of the alleys within the city. This evaluation was based upon the maintenance needed to restore the alleys to a good quality surface. The alleys are not part of the street system and the City does not receive Federal or State funding to maintain them. The alleys are both gravel and paved, and many are in need of immediate repair or reconstruction. Many residents only have access to their driveways and garages from the alley side of their property. Without the necessary funding the alleys will continue to deteriorate. Furthermore, the alleys have become aesthetically unpleasing and a safety hazard due to the accumulation of large brush piles, tires, furniture, overgrown shrubbery, etc. A 2% Tribal contribution will allow us to remove the accumulated debris from the alleys and restore the drivable surface at no charge to residents. Project Benefits To The Tribe, Community, And Governmental Service Area: Repair of the gravel and asphalt alleys will improve the accessibility and safety of the alleys. Safety will be improved as potholes will be eliminated and water will no longer collect in the alley, and the aesthetics will improve by the removal of obstacles, such as large brush piles. The aesthetic appearance of the City will also improve as the alley conditions improve. Long-Term Funding Requirements (if applicable) And How Those Requirements Will Be Met: Once the non-paved alleys have been restored with additional gravel and grading, the City plans to allocate annual funds to maintain them to the restored condition. Restoration of the paved alleys will require milling of the existing asphalt surface, repair of the subbase, if needed, and repaving. Therefore, the City would like to submit a future request for additional funding to complete this work. Restoration of the paved alleys would need to be bid or, if possible, added to the scope of a future street overlay project. Itemized Budget For Request (Attach any documents justifying those amounts, i.e. price quotes, bids, etc.): Currently, the City does not have funding available for the entire project scope. A 2% Tribal contribution would allow City crews to remove the debris and overgrowth without charge to the residents, and restore the gravel alleys to a quality and safe drivable surface. 2 The Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan 7070 East Broadway Rd.

Pleasant has approximately 80 miles of sidewalk within the City limits, 30% of which has reached the end of the life cycle and requires replacement. In addition, several sidewalk ramps need to be upgraded to meet ADA requirements. Project Benefits To The Tribe, Community, And Governmental Service Area: The sidewalk replacement program helps keep the sidewalk free of trip and fall hazards, and increases the safety and accessibility to the sidewalk for residents and visitors alike. Having attractive, easily accessible public spaces within the community is a key component to encourage and increase pedestrian traffic. The health benefits derived from a walking program are well documented.

PLEASE SEE PAGE TWO FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS. 1 Project Description: The City’s Engineering Department completed an evaluation of all of the streets within the city limits. This evaluation was based upon the maintenance needed to restore the streets to a good quality surface. Many streets are in need of preventative maintenance to improve their condition and prevent further deterioration. If the streets are left unattended, they will eventually need to be reconstructed. For every mile of street that must be completely reconstructed, nearly nine (9) miles can be resurfaced for the same cost. With a $100,000 contribution by the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe, an additional mile of street can be resurfaced. Project Benefits To The Tribe, Community, And Governmental Service Area: The Tribal community will benefit from the improved street conditions. Safety will be improved as potholes will be eliminated and water will no longer collect in the street. The aesthetic appearance of the City will also improve as the street conditions improve. The benefits to the local government service area would be that the entire Mt. Pleasant community will benefit from the improved street conditions. Long-Term Funding Requirements (if applicable) And How Those Requirements Will Be Met: There are no long-term funding requirements applicable. Itemized Budget For Request (Attach any documents justifying those amounts, i.e. price quotes, bids, etc.): The City plans to allocate $642,000 over the next two years for street resurfacing and sidewalk ramp replacement. A 2% Tribal contribution would allow additional streets to be resurfaced earlier than scheduled.

The EDC supports the replacement of the existing loan program and has recommended the transfer of the funds and the TIFA-CBD has approved the parameters of the new program. The City Commission is involved in the approval of this transfer as the original funding for the Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) was provided to the EDC from the City’s Economic Development Fund in 2012. The transfer of the funds for the new Downtown Façade Improvement Program is recommended for the following reasons: • The existing Revolving Loan Fund program in not meeting development needs based on the fact that there have been no applicants in the past 4 years. • Façade improvements in the downtown area would be beneficial for all of the surrounding properties. • This new façade improvement program supports the intent of the original allocation but focuses on the exterior only, which is what the public would regularly see. • The funds transferred from the EDC can be paired with a $25,000 allocation from the TIFA-CBD to create a loan fund of just over $70,000. As indicated in the memo, the TIFA-CBD will provide reports on the use of the funds every six months to the City Commission. Staff therefore recommends the transfer of the remaining RLF funds of $46,730 from the EDC to the TIFA-CBD. Recommended Motion: Move to approve the transfer of the RLF funds from the EDC to the TIFA-CBD. NJR/ap MEMORANDUM TO: Nancy Ridley, City Manager CC: Bill Mrdeza, Community Services Division Director FROM: Michelle Sponseller, Downtown Development Director DATE: March 4, 2016 SUBJECT: Consider Funding Transfer – Downtown Façade Improvement Program BACKGROUND At their May 14, 2012 meeting, the City Commission discussed a proposal to create a city-funded Revolving Loan Fund (RLF). The funds supporting the existing RLF program the city had used for years to incent development in the downtown area, initially a result of a Community Development Block Grant, were being recalled by the State’s Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC). The MEDC intended to redistribute these, and similar funds held by other communities, to a new regional economic development collaborative that was created by the state in 2011. In addition, the state imposed complex reporting requirements on the active outstanding loans the city currently had; nine of these loans were for fairly small amounts ($500-$7,000). The reporting requirements were increasingly burdensome; not cost effective to administer; and, in this case, unfair since they were being applied to the loan recipients after the fact. After careful deliberation, at the May 14, 2012 meeting, the City Commission approved that the City loan the EDC $50,000 from the Economic Development Fund so that the EDC could: • Create a new Downtown RLF; • Pay off the balance of the nine existing loans to the CDBG financed fund and assume the nine accounts; • Make the balance available for new loans; • Regular reporting to the City Commission on a bi-annual basis; • Re-evaluation of the Downtown RLF in five years (May 2017) Although the intent was to wait for five years to evaluate the RLF, with no applicants in the past four years, it became apparent that the program wasn’t meeting development needs. RECOMMENDATION In December 2014, a National Historic District was created downtown, bringing with it a greater desire to rehabilitate our downtown building facades. With this renewed appreciation for downtown’s visual appeal and preservation, the Downtown Development Director has spent the last few months creating a new program called the Downtown Façade Improvement Program. The Downtown Facade Improvement Program is made up of two separate yet interconnected pieces, intended to encourage preservation, rehabilitation, and restoration of the historic resources within the CBD-TIFA District. The two offerings are: • • Façade Rendering Services Façade Easement Purchase and Zero-Interest Payback The CBD TIFA Board approved the program at its February 11 meeting subject to City attorney review. The City attorney review resulted in a few changes to the program and the final program description is attached for reference. In order to streamline the application and approval process the desire is to have the CBD TIFA oversee both portions for the program, façade renderings and the façade easement purchase/zero-interest payback. In order to accomplish this we are requesting the City Commission authorize a transfer of the existing Revolving Loan Funds, currently overseen by the Economic Development Corporation (EDC) to the CBD TIFA. The EDC met on March 3, 2016 and approved the recommendation for the transfer of funds to the CBD TIFA. The $46,730 would be combined with the $25,000 funding the CBD TIFA has budgeted for architectural incentives for a total of $71,730 for the Façade Improvement Program. To ensure the program is meeting the economic development objectives the Downtown Development office will provide reports every six months to the EDC and City Commission on the status of the program and funding. REQUESTED ACTION: Review and consider approval to transfer of existing Revolving Loan Funds ($46,730), from the EDC to the CBD TIFA board for Downtown Façade Improvement Program. DOWNTOWN FACADE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM PROGRAM OVERVIEW The City’s Downtown Façade Improvement Program promotes façade improvements within the Central Business District-Tax Increment Finance Authority (CBD-TIFA) District by providing design services and financial incentives for qualifying projects. This document has been prepared by the City of Mt. Pleasant’s Downtown Development office to provide a clear understanding of the Downtown Façade Improvement Program. The Downtown Façade Improvement Program is made up of two separate yet interconnected pieces, intended to encourage preservation, rehabilitation, and restoration of the historic resources within the CBD-TIFA District. The two offerings are: Façade Rendering Services Façade Easement Purchase and Zero-Interest Payback This program assists in creating high-impact, visual improvements to attract local residents and visitors to a “world class downtown” that reflects Mt. Pleasant’s uniqueness and the dynamic nature of its cultural resources and distinctive legacy. PURPOSES OF THE PROGRAM 1. To directly stimulate physical improvements to central business district buildings and businesses. 2. To stimulate building improvements sensitive to the unique context of the central business district's historic commercial architectural character. 3. To stimulate physical improvements to businesses to make them attractive to Mt. Pleasant’s consumer market. 4 To strengthen existing businesses and encourage new businesses to bring employment opportunities to the central business district. 6. To work closely with the lending institutions to provide an attractive incentive package to central business district commercial owners. I. FAÇADE RENDERING SERVICES Program applicants work with the City’s architectural firm to develop a façade design and installation procedures based on the Secretary of Interior Guidelines (see bullet # 7 under Requirements for Applicants below). Designs will involve transformative changes to buildings such as removal of metal slipcovers, uncovering/replacing windows, and the addition of ornamental components (dentil molding, cornices, etc.). The City covers the cost of a single façade rendering. Applicants may purchase additional renderings in accordance with the following pricing schedule: • Front Elevations $700 per elevation • Rear Elevations $450 per elevation • Side Elevations $300 per elevation Page 1 of 7 Last Updated: March 4, 2016 DOWNTOWN FACADE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Additional services available: • Construction Drawings • Construction Observation • Sub Consultants and other related services To qualify for the program, applicants must demonstrate a bona fide commitment to implement building improvements and must certify that construction will commence within 18 months of funding approval, and that the project will be completed within 120 days thereafter. Applicant will be in default if rehabilitation is not undertaken within the specified time period, with 100% of paid costs and expenses to be reimbursed to the CBD-TIFA. II. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE – FAÇADE EASEMENT PURCHASE AND ZERO-INTEREST PAYBACK The revitalization of a commercial district often begins with improvements to a single building or storefront. Even simple changes such as the removal of non-historic materials, repairs, or a new paint job that calls attention to the building’s original architectural details signal positive change and often stimulate similar improvements in neighboring buildings. While this process sometimes begins spontaneously through the work of individual property or business owners, the CBD-TIFA intends to accelerate the process by providing financial incentives. Specifically, the CBD-TIFA will purchase façade easements in the façade to be improved and allow the developer to gradually repay the purchase price (free of interest) over a pre-determined timeframe. REQUIREMENTS FOR APPLICANTS 1. Applicant projects must be located within the boundaries of the CBD-TIFA (see attached map). 2. Applications will not be considered for single family detached housing or to refinance existing debt. 3. All proposed improvements must be approved by the CBD-TIFA Board prior to the commencement of any work. 4. Construction must commence within 60 days of approval and the project must be completed within 120 days thereafter. Requests for time extensions must be submitted in writing and will only be approved upon the expressed written consent of the CBD-TIFA Board. 5. All building and property improvements must meet state and local building codes and zoning requirements. 6. All required municipal or governmental permits must be obtained prior to construction. 7. Improvements to those buildings and businesses within the Downtown Historic District (see attached map) must meet the minimum Standards for Rehabilitation of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Standards for Rehabilitation are: i. A property will be used as it was historically or be given a new use that requires minimal change to its distinctive materials, features, spaces, and spatial relationships. ii. The historic character of a property will be retained and preserved. The removal of distinctive materials or alteration of features, spaces, and spatial relationships that characterize a property will be avoided. iii. Each property will be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Page 2 of 7 Last Updated: March 4, 2016 DOWNTOWN FACADE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or elements from other historic properties, will not be undertaken. iv. Changes to a property that have acquired historic significance in their own right will be retained and preserved. v. Distinctive materials, features, finishes, and construction techniques or examples of craftsmanship that characterize a property will be preserved. vi. Deteriorated historic features will be repaired rather than replaced. Where the severity of deterioration requires replacement of a distinctive feature, the new feature will match the old in design, color, texture, and, where possible, materials. Replacement of missing features will be substantiated by documentary and physical evidence. vii. Chemical or physical treatments, if appropriate, will be undertaken using the gentlest means possible. Treatments that cause damage to historic materials will not be used. viii. Archeological resources will be protected and preserved in place. If such resources must be disturbed, mitigation measures will be undertaken. ix. New additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property. The new work will be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. x. New additions and adjacent or related new construction will be undertaken in such a manner that, if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired. 8. Improvements to those buildings not within an established Downtown Historic District should, to the degree possible, meet the minimum Standards for Rehabilitation of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. 9. The purchase price for the façade easement may be up to 50% of the overall project cost. Private investment of at least $2,000 is required. 10. All applicants must be current on taxes and other obligations owed to the City. 11. While architectural services by a licensed architect are encouraged, they are not required to participate in the program. 12. Eligible improvements include, but are not limited to, the following: • Signs and awnings - please see Downtown Signage Design Guidelines for more details. • Replacement of missing decorative features. • Exterior painting. • Restoration of windows and/or doors. • Removal of non-historic materials or additions. • Exterior lighting. • Design and engineering fees related to the proposed improvements (not to exceed 10% of the total project costs). Page 3 of 7 Last Updated: March 4, 2016 DOWNTOWN FACADE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM • Historic preservation related maintenance requiring specialized care or expertise, such as tuckpointing or cleaning. 13. Changes to the façade of the buildings may not remove, alter, damage or cover up significant architectural features of the building that are original, and may not reflect a major alteration to the building. 14. Changes to the façade of buildings will either; 1) partially or fully restore the historic appearance of the building based on actual evidence, including photographs, written documentation, data on the building or site or other data, or 2) represent a modern treatment which blends into and is compatible with the building and adjoining buildings. 15. In general, the CBD-TIFA encourages repair and preservation of existing features, unless alterations to these facades have resulted in an incoherent, unattractive or inharmonious appearance. 16. For facades that have previously been substantially altered, treatment will conform to the features, materials, rhythms, color and general appearance of the building and those adjoining, particularly if the building is one in a row of buildings with identical or similar design features. 17. Paint colors will either be based on original colors obtained from paint samples on the buildings or colors shown in historic photographs, or will be compatible with adjoining buildings and colors in downtown Mt. Pleasant. Trim colors, which highlight building details, are encouraged. 18. Ineligible improvements include, but are not limited to, the following: • Interior work, fixtures and furnishings, roof repair or replacement. • Landscaping. • Building improvements not visible from the public realm. • Removal of architecturally significant features. • Building additions or new construction. • Improvements completed or in-progress at the time of application. • Building acquisition. • General building maintenance, including paint and repairs to match existing conditions. • Any activity completed prior to receiving final approval of funds. 19. Any changes in work after approval must be reapproved by the CBD-TIFA Board. 20. Requests for funding will be reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis. 21. Program boundaries include a substantial number of buildings and it is recognized that improvements to one structure may not have as great an impact on the central business district as improvements to another. Accordingly, the CBD-TIFA reserves the right to prioritize applications based on their potential impact. GUIDELINES AND PAYBACK SCHEDULE Program participants must demonstrate proof of 50% in matching funds, whether owner equity or private financing. The length of the participant’s payback period will be determined by the level of funding requested: Funding Amount $1,000 to $2,000 $2,001 to $3,500 Payback (monthly) 12 months 24 months Page 4 of 7 Last Updated: March 4, 2016 DOWNTOWN FACADE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM $3,501 to $15,000 $15,000+ 48 months 60 months At least one principal or member of any participating entity is required to personally guarantee payback of the façade easement purchase price.
