          [4. Resolution approving an agreement with MDOT for the Reconstruction of Ann Street from Monroe Avenue to Plainfield Avenue and authorizing $1,586,645 for the local share of project costs.]
NUMBER FOUR IS A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AGREEMENT WITH MDOT FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF ANN STREET FROM MONROE AVENUE TO PLAINFIELD AVENUE, AND AUTHORIZING $1,586,645 FOR THE LOCAL SHARE OF PROJECT COST. SO MOVED. THIS IS ONE OF THE SIX PROJECTS THAT WERE FEATURED AT YOUR COMMISSION NIGHT OUT IN MARCH. I THINK THAT WAS AND WILL BE RECONSTRUCTED BETWEEN MONROE AND PLAINFIELD. THE PROJECT INCLUDES ELEVATED OR RAISED BIKE LANES, THE NEW PAVEMENT, CURB AND GUTTER, NEW DRIVE APPROACHES, DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS, SIDEWALKS, STREET TREES AND NEW ADA COMPLIANT CURB RAMPS. WE WERE ABLE TO SECURE A SURFACE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM GRANT IN SUPPORT OF THIS PROJECT IN JUST OVER $1.5 MILLION, SO BECAUSE OF THAT, THE PROJECT IS BEING BID AND ADMINISTERED THROUGH MDOT. ESTIMATED TOTAL EXPENDITURES FOR THE PROJECT ARE $3,105,745. SO IN ADDITION TO APPROVING THE MDOT AGREEMENT, THIS RESOLUTION ALSO AUTHORIZES OUR LOCAL SHARE, WHICH AFTER THAT STP GRANT AMOUNT IS $1,586,645. AND THAT WILL COME FROM THE VITAL STREETS FUND AND THE PARKING SYSTEM FUND. THERE'S A SMALL PORTION IN THERE FROM THE PARKING SYSTEM FUND OF ABOUT $14,000. THAT'S TO COVER THE DESIGN, PAVEMENT MARKING DESIGN TO THE WEST OF THIS PROJECT, REALLY BETWEEN TURNER AND MONROE. AND THAT'S GOING TO BE DONE OUTSIDE OF THIS MDOT CONTRACT. BUT TO ALIGN WITH THE NEW CROSS SECTION THAT WILL BE CONSTRUCTED EAST OF MONROE, THE TIMING OF THE WORK IS SCHEDULED TO BEGIN JUNE 9TH. LAST DAY OF SCHOOL IS JUNE 6TH, SO WE'RE WAITING TILL AFTER THAT BECAUSE PALMER PALMER ELEMENTARY IS AT THE EAST END OF THE PROJECT LIMITS, AND THEN WE'RE TARGETING COMPLETION OF IT BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS. GREAT QUESTIONS COLLEAGUES, I JUST HAVE A QUESTION. THIS IS THE SECOND WARD. THANKS FOR THAT NOTE ABOUT KIND OF THE SCHOOL PIECE. I KNOW THOSE WERE QUESTIONS THAT WE HAD FOR SOME DIFFERENT PROJECTS OVER THE LAST YEAR. CAN YOU TALK ABOUT ALL OF THE ENTITIES THAT WE'VE BEEN BEEN ENGAGED WITH, LIKE WE'VE BEEN ENGAGED WITH OUR CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT AUTHORITY 
          [00:05:03]
OR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION? YEAH, THERE'S BEEN SIGNIFICANT ENGAGEMENT. THERE WERE A FEW MEETINGS HELD ALREADY, AND THERE WILL BE A CONSTRUCTION PREP MEETING TO COME BEFORE CONSTRUCTION STARTS. BUT BACK JULY OF LAST YEAR, WE HELD THE CONCEPT DESIGN MEETING WHERE WE COME TO THE RESIDENTS AND THE AREA BUSINESSES AND PROPOSE, YOU KNOW, HERE'S WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT AS FAR AS IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BIKE ACTION PLAN AND AS FAR AS WHAT IMPROVEMENTS WE'RE PLANNING. RECEIVED FEEDBACK AT THAT MEETING, THEN CAME BACK IN NOVEMBER WITH A PREFERRED DESIGN MEETING, AND AT BOTH THOSE MEETINGS HAD GOOD PARTICIPATION. BUT MAILERS HAVE BEEN SENT OUT AND AGAIN, THERE WILL BE ANOTHER MEETING TO BE HELD BEFORE THE START OF CONSTRUCTION. SO I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT KIND OF, YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT WAS SOME OF THE CONVERSATION WE HAD IS, YOU KNOW, WE'RE PLANNING THESE LIKE A YEAR IN ADVANCE. WE HAD OUR COMMISSION NIGHT OUT MEETINGS. I KNOW THIS WAS, I BELIEVE, ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS THAT EVENING BECAUSE I TALKED TO SOME INDIVIDUALS ABOUT IT. AND THEN, YOU KNOW, NOT TOO FAR AWAY IS, YOU KNOW, BRIGGS PARK. AND SO KIND OF THINKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, THE SUMMER ACTIVATION AS WELL IN THAT CORRIDOR. SO THANKS FOR HIGHLIGHTING THAT, MR. BURKMAN. SURE. HEARING NO OTHER QUESTIONS. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR. 
          [5. Resolution awarding a contract with Fedewa Inc. for Alger Reservoir External Cleaning and Painting - 2025 in the amount of $100,700 with total amount not-to-exceed $197,050]

FOR ALGER RESERVOIR EXTERNAL CLEANING AND PAINTING 2025, IN THE AMOUNT OF $100,700, WITH A TOTAL AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $197,050. SUPPORT MOVED AND SUPPORTED, SO A COMPLETE MAINTENANCE INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED BACK IN 2022. OF THIS 5 MILLION GALLON RESERVOIR OF THE WATER SYSTEM, THAT INSPECTION IDENTIFIED MAINTENANCE ITEMS THAT NEEDED TO TAKE PLACE, AS WELL AS SOME REPAIRS AND ALTERATIONS TO MEET EAGLES NEW REQUIREMENTS. THE STATE'S REQUIREMENTS WORK ITEMS INCLUDE CLEANING AND COATING OF THE EXTERIOR PRIMARILY, BUT THEN MODIFICATION OF ROOF VENT, NEW ROOF HANDRAIL SECTIONS, FOUNDATION REPAIR, AMONG OTHER ITEMS. WE RECEIVED SIX BIDS FOR THIS PROJECT, WITH THE LOW BID BEING PROVIDED BY OTTAWA AND THE AMOUNT OF $100,700. THE OTHERS RANGED AS HIGH AS $367,000. SO WE GOT A VERY FAVORABLE GOOD BID PRICE, WELL UNDER THE ENGINEER'S ESTIMATE OF 423,000. SO SEEKING YOUR APPROVAL OF THE AWARD TO WITH TOTAL EXPENDITURES NOT TO EXCEED $197,050, INCLUDING A PRETTY HEALTHY CONTINGENCY IN THAT AS WE IDENTIFY ANY OTHER NEEDED ITEMS THAT NEED TO BE CORRECTED WHILE OUT THERE, FINANCING WILL COME FROM THE WATER SYSTEM FUND.

          [6. Resolution adopting the Drinking Water Revolving Fund Project Planning Document Amendment for FY2026]
CARRIES. ITEM NUMBER SIX IS A RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE DRINKING WATER REVOLVING FUND PROJECT PLANNING DOCUMENT AMENDMENT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026. SO MOVED. SUPPORT. MOVED AND SUPPORTED MR. BURKMAN. SO THE CITY SUBMITTED A DRINKING WATER REVOLVING FUND PROJECT PLAN. THAT'S A MOUTHFUL IN MAY OF 2023. IDENTIFYING PROJECTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 24 ALL THE WAY THROUGH 2028. THAT PLAN IDENTIFIED 32 PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE WATER SYSTEM SERVICE AREA, WITH AN ESTIMATED COST OF $142 MILLION. THAT PLAN WAS THEN APPROVED BY THE STATE'S DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT, GREAT LAKES AND ENERGY. EGLE, AND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THAT IS THAT IT OPENS THE DOOR FOR THOSE IDENTIFIED PROJECTS TO QUALIFY FOR REVOLVING FUND LOANS, WHICH HAVE TYPICALLY LOWER INTEREST RATES THAN TRADITIONAL REVENUE BONDS, AS WELL AS PRINCIPAL FORGIVENESS ON CERTAIN ITEMS, WHICH YOU'VE HEARD ON MANY PROJECTS THAT WE'VE BROUGHT TO YOU. WE'D LIKE TO FILE AN AMENDMENT TO THAT PLAN, WHICH IS DUE BY JUNE 1ST FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026. THE AMENDMENT WILL ADD ADDITIONAL PROJECTS, INCLUDING AN ADDITIONAL 1 MILLION PER YEAR FOR LEAD SERVICE, LINE REPLACEMENTS, WATER MAIN REPLACEMENTS ON BERKSHIRE, GIDDINGS, SHANGRI-LA, WEALTHY, MILBANK, JEFFERSON AND PLYMOUTH, AND THE LIMITS OF EACH OF THOSE SEGMENTS ARE DETAILED IN THE MEMO OF THIS AGENDA PACKET. THE PROJECTS IDENTIFIED ARE IN AREAS WHERE THE CITY'S ASSET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM HAS INDICATED THE GREATEST NEED FOR WORK, AND ALSO ALIGNS WITH THE CITY'S PLANS TO IMPROVE ROAD SURFACE CONDITIONS. SO TRYING TO TIME THOSE IMPROVEMENTS TOGETHER. OF COURSE, THESE PROJECTS HAVE AN ESTIMATED COST OF $9.25 MILLION, WHICH WOULD BRING THE TOTAL ESTIMATED WORK COST FOR FISCAL YEAR 26 TO JUST OVER 25 MILLION. SO SEEKING YOUR FORMAL APPROVAL OF THIS AMENDMENT, WHICH WILL THEN ALLOW US TO MOVE ON TO SUBMITTAL TO THE STATE AHEAD OF THEIR JUNE 1ST DEADLINE. QUESTIONS, COLLEAGUES, IS THIS ADDITIONAL AMOUNT IN OUR CURRENT BUDGET THAT WE'RE REVIEWING THEN AS WELL? IT IS, IN FACT, I SAW IT REFERENCED JUST THIS MORNING, 
          [00:10:06]
BUT WATER SYSTEM MANAGER IS HERE TO ELABORATE. YES. SO WHEN WE SUBMITTED LAST YEAR FOR DRINKING WATER REVOLVING FUND LOANS, THE PROJECTS THAT WERE STRICTLY GRAND RAPIDS SCORED BETTER THAN WHEN WE HAD PROJECTS THAT WERE THAT THESE GRAND RAPIDS ONLY PROJECTS SCORE BETTER. SO THAT'S WHY YOU SEE ALL OF THESE THAT ARE IN OUR FY 26 BUDGET, AS WELL AS IN THIS PROJECT PLAN AMENDMENT. GREAT. THANK YOU, MR. DERNBURG. HEARING NO OTHER QUESTIONS. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR?

SO MOVED. SUPPORT. MOVED AND SUPPORTED MR. BURKMAN. SO THIS IS THE FIRST OF TWO ITEMS ON YOUR AGENDA REGARDING COMMEMORATIVE STREET NAME DESIGNATIONS THAT ARE BEING REQUESTED. THIS REQUEST CAME TO YOU FROM PASTOR RORY MARSHALL AND THE LIGHTHOUSE FULL LIFE CENTER CHURCH TO DESIGNATE THE INTERSECTION OF MADISON AND ALGER AS DOCTOR MELINDA SAPWE. DOCTOR SAPP PASSED AWAY FOLLOWING A BATTLE WITH CANCER IN SEPTEMBER OF 2010. ALONG WITH HER HUSBAND, DOCTOR SAPP FOUNDED THE LIGHTHOUSE FULL LIFE CENTER, WHICH IS LOCATED AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THIS INTERSECTION. THIS THE REQUEST LETTER, WHICH IS INCLUDED AS AN ATTACHMENT TO THIS AGENDA ITEM IN THE PACKET, GOES ON TO DETAIL DOCTOR SAPP'S CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE COMMUNITY THROUGH HER MINISTRY AND AS AN EDUCATOR AND COUNSELOR. SO THE RESOLUTION BEFORE YOU ESTABLISHES THE PUBLIC HEARING THAT WILL BE HELD AT YOUR JUNE 10TH COMMISSION MEETING. FOR ANY WHO WISH TO MAKE COMMENTS ON THAT PROPOSAL. AND THEN ALSO, PER THE POLICY WE'VE NOTIFIED, OR WE WILL BE NOTIFYING ALL THOSE PROPERTY OWNERS ADJACENT TO THE INTERSECTION OF THE HEARING DATE OF JUNE 10TH AS WELL. QUESTIONS, COLLEAGUES. I'LL JUST ADD, I PASSED BY THIS INTERSECTION PRETTY MUCH EVERY DAY, MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY. I THINK, YOU KNOW, I'LL LOOK FORWARD TO THE PUBLIC HEARING, BUT I THINK MANY OF US WHO'VE LIVED IN GRAND RAPIDS OUR WHOLE LIFE ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF DOCTOR MELINDA SAPP AND THE FELLOWSHIP IN AND WORK OF THE CHURCH AS WELL. SO. 
          ALL RIGHT, HEARING NO OTHER COMMENTS, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? HI. ANY OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES.

          MOVED AND SUPPORTED. THIS REQUEST COMES TO YOU FROM COREY PENN, THE FATHER OF AMELIA PENN, TO COMMEMORATIVE. DESIGNATE THAT SEGMENT OF UMATILLA BETWEEN MADISON AND UNION AS AMELIA PENN WAY. AS YOU KNOW, AMELIA WAS TRAGICALLY KILLED ON UMATILLA NEAR MADISON IN JUNE OF 2024 WHILE PLAYING FOOTBALL WITH FRIENDS. HE WAS 15. HE HAD GROWN UP IN THE AREA, STAYING WITH HIS GRANDMOTHER IN THE NEARBY NEIGHBORHOOD, AND HIS FAMILY HAS CIRCULATED A PETITION IN SUPPORT OF THIS REQUEST TO HONOR HIS MEMORY. I KNOW REPRESENTATIVES FROM SEEDS OF PROMISE ARE IN IN THE AUDIENCE HERE TODAY IN SUPPORT OF THIS AS WELL. JUST WANT TO NOTE THAT THE ORIGINAL STREET NAME SIGNAGE, AS WELL AS THE INTERSECTION WITH THE PROPOSED DOCTOR, MELINDA SAPWE, REMAIN THE SAME AS FAR AS NAVIGATION PURPOSES AND ADDRESSING, BUT COMMEMORATIVE IS A DESIGNATION THAT GOES ALONG WITH THAT. SO THIS RESOLUTION SETS A PUBLIC HEARING FOR JUNE 10TH MEETING. AND AS I MENTIONED IN THE OTHER ONE, ALL OWNERS OF THE PROPERTIES ADJACENT TO THIS STREET SEGMENT WILL BE NOTIFIED OF THAT HEARING BY MAIL AS WELL. OUR COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS COLLEAGUES HAVE MORE OF A PROCESS. QUESTION FOLKS HAVE REACHED OUT TO ME ON THE EARLY END OF GETTING THIS PROCESS GOING. SO HAPPY TO SEE IT HERE. BEING SCHEDULED FOR A PUBLIC HEARING. ARE THOSE FOLKS NOTIFIED EVERY STEP OF THE WAY? LIKE, DO THEY KNOW THAT THIS IS KIND OF COMING IN FRONT OF US NEXT RIGHT NOW AND NEXT MONTH, THAT WE'RE SO CLOSE TO THE FINISH LINE? SO WHAT WE DO IN THESE CASES IS COMMUNICATE DIRECTLY WITH THE REQUESTER. SO. 
          SO MISTER PENN IS AWARE THAT OF THE SCHEDULE AS THIS IS PROCEEDING. BUT THEN THERE'S NOTIFICATION, YOU KNOW, MAILED OUT INDIVIDUALLY. BUT THEN WE ALSO HAVE TO ADVERTISE IT IN A NEWSPRINT SOURCE. AS FAR AS THE ACTUAL HEARING ITSELF. SO THAT NOTIFICATION WILL BE MORE WIDELY PUBLICIZED. OKAY. THANK YOU. EXCITED TO SEE BOTH OF THESE. THANK YOU. I'LL JUST ADD, YOU KNOW, I YOU KNOW, STREET DESIGNATION IS CERTAINLY, YOU KNOW, A SMALL WAY TO REMEMBER SUCH A YOUNG LIFE TAKEN. AND I HOPE THAT IT ALSO CAN SERVE AS A LITTLE BIT OF COMFORT TO THE FAMILY. AND AS SOMEBODY WHO IS STILL WAITING TO FIND OUT WHO KILLED A FAMILY MEMBER, I HOPE 
          [00:15:04]
THAT THIS CAN ALSO BRING FORWARD THOSE WHO HAVE MORE INFORMATION AS WELL. JUST ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO KEEP TALKING ABOUT THIS. SO THANK YOU. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? AYE. ANY
