EPC Meeting Minutes, Oct. 2, 2013, Olivet City Hall Chambers, 6:30 p.m.

Meeting was called to order for Chairman Robert McConnell. Commissioners in

attendance were Mike Hosey, Roger Harris, Bruce Porter, Jerry Roe, Gina

Johnsen and Shane Powers. Excused were Commissioners Tim Lamoreux, Alvin

Whitfield and Wally Miars.

Guests included City Clerk Becky Palmer, Councilman Larry Marsh, Jean Miller,

Linda Glover, Blair Miller, Shelli Smith and County Commissioner Dale Barr.

Staff attendees include Director John Greenslit, Operations/Naturalist Jackie

Blanc and Secretary Missy Norris.

Following the Pledge of Allegiance, several items were accepted, without

objection, to be added to the agenda. This included consideration of deferring

action in December without a meeting while directly the Executive Committee

to act on behalf ofthe entire Commission subject to ratification in January, and

extension of the pilot program to honor POW, Purple Heart and Medal of Honor

winners free access to Eaton County Parks in FY 13-14, and consideration ofthe

nominations for the 3'd annual Alvin Whitfield Community Service awards.

Chairman McConnell had brief remarks about the successful Friend Boat Cruise

and read an authorization letter from MDNR to permit the Crandell Lake final

appraisal process to begin.

Limited comments of welcome were made by Olivet officials, with appreciation

to the Parks Commission for its historic support of local projects and programs.

A motion by Hosey/Roe was approved to approve the bills and vouchers as

presented by Secretary Norris, in her report. Similar action was taken on a

Powers/Harris motion to accept the budget report.

17

Under staff reports, Director Greenslit highlighted activities and events in his

written comments, announced the new budget is now on-line, and expressed

his appreciation to Commissioner Roe for his assistance at the Labor Day Grand

River Bridge Walk, which included County Commissioner Daryl Baker.

Operations/Naturalist Director Blanc highlighted the season ending workload

projects and the beginning of many elementary school classes at the Lincoln

Brick Conference/Nature Museum with the Annie's Big Lesson projects.

Partner Organization reports included Barry-Eaton Health Department liaison

comments from Shelli Smith. Her written report is attached. Linda Glover

reported for the Friends, with preliminary information of the success of the Boat

Cruise, plans for re-organization of the Friends by-laws and programs, and a

plea to seek additional members and officers for the Friends. Blair Miller spoke

briefly about the Thornapple Trail Association river cleanup project and the

continued interest in the Vermontville/Nashville area.

Under Old Business, Director Greenslit reiterated the completion of the required

40 year title search and Phase One environmental review on the proposed

Crandell Lake grant project. Both reports are completed and were invoiced

under budget. MDNR will now permit finalization of two new independent

appraisals on the property. Closing is anticipated upon completion and

acceptance of this review.

Greenslit continued as he indicated the first public meeting for the 5 Year

planning process will be on October 24. As per the terms of a $5,000 grant from

HUD, the process will include various underserved groups within Eaton County.

The Oct. 24 meeting will address issues with the youth of the County, primarily

4H and Olivet College students. Meetings are being planned with Seniors and

Veterans.

The Complete Streets resolution, supported by B-E Health Department and the

Thornapple Trail Association was approved on a Hosey/Harris motion. This will

indicate that local planning and zoning officials be encouraged to consider this

18

action in future transportation projects for safety, health, wellness and

recreational use of streets, roadwaYs and pathways.

rhe Dark Sky resolution was also approved on a Powers/Roe motion,

recognizing the interests of the Fox Park Observatory as one of only four sites in

Michigan, as suggesting that future developments consider energy, security and

efficiency in their plans. Jurisdiction for these decisions continues to be the

responsibility of local units.

Director Greenslit was asked to respond to staff actions in regard to comments

made by citizen Tim Stay at the September 4 meeting at Lincoln Brick. The

concerns over activities of disc golfers, litter, smoking, drinking harassment of

visitors, environmental tree and brush damage, incompetent employees and a

variety of other allegations have been investigated and addressed. Trails have

been inspected, tree and brush damage is part of annual fall cleanup and wood

chip harvesting for trails maintenance, disc golf Club members have been

advised of the allegations and they provided their rules which do not permit

participants to litter, drink or smoke on the course. The concerns appear to be

overstated, with personal agenda items re-surfacing historically. Our findings

have been shared with Chairman McConnell. Greenslit suggested that this issue

has been dealt with in an expedient and efficient manner by staff.

Under New Business, a motion by Hosey/Powers was approved to postpone the

December meeting until January 8 and empower the Executive Committee to

act in the interest of the full Commission for required actions, to be ratified at

the January 8, 2014 meeting.

The revised listing the nominees for the 3'd annual Alvin Whitfield Award was

approved without objection by Commission. There was no additional public

comment, as Chairman McConnell thanked Olivet Clerk Becky Palmer and other

local officials for their hospitality. Adjournment was at 8:15 p.m.

Eaton County Board of Commissioners

RESOLUTION TO ESTABLISH A TRI-COUNTY REGIONAL BROWNFIELD REDEVELOPMENT COALITION AND TO ALLOW CLINTON COUNTY TO

SUPPORT OR BE A PARTY TO A GRANT APPLICATION TO USEPA

November 20, 2013

Introduced by the Public Works and Planning Committee

WHEREAS, Eaton County has a Brownfield plan and has successfully implemented a

BRA program that generated interest and need for assistance with Brownfield Redevelopment; and

WHEREAS, the mid-Michigan region of Clinton, Eaton and Ingham Counties in Michigan is host to a variety of previously used and/or contaminated development sites and shares many common concerns and challenges in the identification, assessment, and successful redevelopment of previously used and potentially contaminated sites; and

WHEREAS, Eaton County has identified a need to identify, assess, and implement the cleanup and redevelopment or reuse of its Brownfield sites in order to encourage economic development; and

WHEREAS, together in a Brownfield Redevelopment Coalition we can improve and expand our regional economy while protecting our region’s rural farmlands and undeveloped areas by encouraging and supporting the reuse and redevelopment of existing sites throughout our three county region; and

WHEREAS, participating in a regional Brownfield redevelopment coalition does not preclude or limit the activities of our existing Brownfield redevelopment and economic development initiatives but does capitalize on our cooperation and offers us economies and efficiencies that can enhance our effectiveness on a regional basis;

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Eaton County hereby resolves to join Ingham and Clinton Counties in forming a Brownfield Redevelopment Coalition and establish it for the purpose of developing and implementing Brownfield projects in our region; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that on behalf of the Coalition, Ingham County will serve as the applicant for USEPA grants and funding to facilitate conducting environmental assessments for redevelopment of properties that will reduce risk and increase successful job creation and retention while supporting Brownfield site assessments, cleanups, and developments in our region; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Coalition will apply to USEPA for a Hazardous Materials Assessment and Petroleum grant of $600,000. In order to provide education

34

and to conduct environmental assessments to facilitate the cleanup and reuse of Brownfield sites that will reduce risk and increase successful job creation and retention while supporting Brownfield site assessments, cleanups, and developments in our region; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that if awarded grant funds, the fiduciary

responsibilities would be managed by Ingham County and the grant funds will be shared equally among the Coalition members. After the first year if funds are not being expended, the Coalition would reallocate funds based on identified projects to maximize the use of grant funds by the end of the grant period.

Alternatives to Addressing Construction Code Permit Fee Waiver Requests:

1. Maintain status quo – no exceptions/waivers to construction code department fees. 2. Adopt the policy that all requests made by federally‐recognized non‐profit organizations are

forwarded to the Public Works and Planning Committee for approval/denial on a case‐by‐case basis. ‐ Will cause considerable lag in the construction process (may take up to six weeks for

consideration based on calendar). ‐ Provides the Committee the greatest flexibility in evaluating requests.

3. Adopt a policy that provides the Construction Code Director the authority to consider approval/denial of requests. ‐ Based on volunteer projects coordinated by federally‐recognized non‐profit organizations. ‐ Would need to establish appeal process, likely to Public Works and Planning Committee.

4. Adopt a policy to provide for 50% discount of fees based on criteria established by Public Works and Planning Committee. ‐ Must be volunteer labor or service/materials‐based project with fund‐raising that occurred

through a federally‐recognized non‐profit organization. ‐ Doesn’t not apply to publicly‐funded (local unit of government) projects or projects of

religious organizations.

Regional Cooperation on the Evaluation and

Development of a Tri-County Recycling Facility

Background Currently, communities in the greater Lansing Tri-County region (including cities, townships, and counties) are individually collecting recycled materials from their residents, either through municipal recycling programs, municipally contracted services, or through individual subscription-based services on the part of their residents. In addition, Michigan State University collects recyclable materials throughout its campus and operates a recycling drop-off center that serves the university and surrounding communities.

The vast majority of the recycled materials from these communities is hauled to material recovery or processing facilities in southeast and southwest Michigan. Each community contracts for that hauling and processing independently, and the transportation costs of hauling recycled materials over 70+ miles to these facilities is substantial for each of the communities and their private-sector partners. The long-distance hauling of materials also has environmental impacts, including carbon emissions and wear on roads.

Although the communities in the Tri-County region offer recycling collection services (curbside and drop-off centers) independently, they do offer cooperative efforts for special recycling services or events, such as Recycle-Rama. While individual collection efforts are successful, there may be opportunities within and between the counties to share collection, processing, and/or marketing services or participate in joint contracting of services (where current collection is through individual subscription) in order to save on costs and expand recycling opportunities.

Proposed Collaborative Effort Community partners in the Mid-Michigan Tri-County region propose to work cooperatively to evaluate the feasibility of constructing and operating a material recovery facility or transfer station that would serve the region’s expanding recycling efforts, and explore opportunities for shared recycling service offerings.

Community partners on this effort include:

City of Lansing

City of East Lansing

Eaton County

Clinton County

Ingham County

Michigan State University

City of Jackson

Tri-County Planning Commission

Lansing Area Economic Partnership

Other local communities

The scope of the project is three-fold:

Conduct a joint feasibility study for the development and operation of a regional, public-private material recovery facility (MRF). The partners will hire a contractor to conduct a feasibility study for locating, constructing, and operating a material recovery facility (or transfer station) in the Tri-County area that would provide local material recovery services for the Tri-County communities and other interested public partners (such as school districts). The feasibility study will include a needs assessment that looks at current infrastructure and recovery of recycled materials as well as the potential for increasing recovery of recycled materials in order to evaluate the need for a MRF or transfer station in the Tri-County region. The study will also look at facility design and capacity needs, potential locations, capital and operation costs, and options for ownership and operations. Construction and operation options to be explored will include public-private partnerships, creation of a regional waste authority, and private construction and operation with public use agreements with regional communities.

Best practices from other Michigan communities, such as Southern Oakland County Resource Recovery Authority (SOCRRA), Resource Recovery and Recycling Authority of Southwest Oakland County (RRRASOC), Traverse City area MRF, Emmett County MRF, and Kent County MRF, will be evaluated for models of operation and regional cooperation.

Create a joint construction and operating agreement for a material recovery facility or transfer station and obtain approval from participating public partners. Depending on the recommended approach for construction and operation of a recycling facility, the partner communities will develop an agreement and obtain community approval for joint construction and operation of the facility (including the potential for a regional recycling facility bond), or for a regional joint use agreement with private-sector partners.

Identify and adopt shared service agreements for recycled material collection services. Partner communities will evaluate opportunities for sharing recycled material collection services, including the options for regional curbside and drop-off collection contracts with private haulers (for communities currently using contractors or subscription services), joint operation of specialized recycling spaces and events (such as electronics or household hazardous waste recycling), and aggregated purchasing of recycling collection equipment (such as recycling bins and carts). Again, best practices for shared recycling services in other communities will be explored for application to the Tri-County region. Once opportunities for shared services are identified, regional partners will develop and approve appropriate shared service agreements.

Estimated Cost of the Feasibility and Evaluation Project

The estimated costs for completing the feasibility study and development of shared use agreements is $XXXX. Regional community partners on the project are requesting 25% of the funds for the feasibility study and evaluation of shared use agreements and 100% of the costs for developing shared use and joint operating agreements from the Department of Treasury’s Competitive Grant Assistance Program. The remainder of the project costs will be provided as follows:
