Environment Committee Report 

The Environment Committee of council met on Wednesday, June 2, 2004, for the purpose of discussing the specifications to be included in the bid process for the refuse and recycling contract for the City of Maumee.

 

Present at the meeting were:  John Jezak, David Hazard, and Larry Gamble of the administration, Jenny Barlos and Doug Brainard of Council.  Richard Carr was absent.

 

Mr. Gamble advised the committee that the current contract for refuse and recycling is about to expire and that he would like to have Council’s approval to seek out bids for a new contract.  A review of the current contract specifications resulted in some proposed changes.  (See attachments.)

 

In addition to the attached amendments some discussion focused on a more “community-friendly” operation.  Mr. Gamble agreed and cited an occurrence where he reported an incident to the management of the current contractor who also was in agreement and transferred a driver from a local route.  To emphasize a more “community-approach” Mr. Gamble included in the proposed changes to the specifications an article which would provide for a customer service representative locally.

 

Based on the review of the proposed specifications as well as the conversations taking place at the meeting it was the consensus of the committee to approve the attached specifications and recommend to Council the authorization of the Service Director to advertise for bids for a new refuse and recycling contract for the City of Maumee.

Mr. Zimmerman read the following report from the Finance Committee: 

Finance Committee Report 

The Finance Committee met on April 7 and May 27, 2004 to discuss the Enterprise Zone and the Community Reinvestment Area incentives, and Job Creation & Retention Grant Program Guidelines.  Present were committee members Todd Zimmerman (who was unable to attend on May 27th), Brent Buehrer (who was unable to attend on April 7th) and Jenny Barlos.  Attending from administration were John Jezak, Dave Hazard and Linda Wilker.  Charlene Kerr from Poggemeyer Design Group was present at the May 27th meeting to answer questions pertaining to the economic incentives offered to businesses by the City.

 

Discussion was directed primarily on updating the Job Creation & Retention Program Guidelines (JC&R) that has received minimal revision since the program’s inception in 1991.  Initiated at a time when the City was not eligible to offer tax abatement through the Enterprise Zone program, the JC&R provided an incentive to attract businesses to locate or expand within the City based upon a company’s number of employees and the amount of payroll.

 

The goal of the committee and the administration is to amend the guidelines to better reflect current economic conditions as well as to create more stringent criteria so that the program may continue to be regarded as an economic incentive, not an entitlement.  To that end, Ms. Kerr reviewed her letter to the Administrator dated September 23, 2003 that evaluated the existing program and offered suggestions for enhancing it from the City’s perspective.

 

It was the committee’s unanimous recommendation to amend the Job Creation & Retention Program Guidelines as follows:

·         Require the applicant to demonstrate need for the grant since it is meant to act as an economic incentive as opposed to an entitlement.

·         Require applicant to make a brief presentation before Council describing the company and the reason the grant is deserved.

·         Require approval of the JC&R grant application prior to the commencement of the applicant’s relocation or expansion project.  (The execution of a lease or purchase agreement may evidence the commencement of a project.)

·         Raise the minimum payroll required to be eligible for the grant program from $100,000 to $250,000.

·         Raise the minimum number of jobs require to be eligible for the grant program from 5 to 15, the current requirement for a Community Reinvestment Area (CRA) abatement.

·         Base all projects and grant payments on a calendar year.

·         Institute an annual grant payment application process that includes the recipient providing specific information to the City.

·         Add a “call back” provision whereby the company must commit to remain in the City for a minimum number of years after approval of the grant based upon a ratio of 1.5 years per grant year authorized.

·         Add contract language to incorporate the annual grant payment application process and the call back provision.

·         Add language prohibiting the combination of the JC&R grants with other economic incentives, such as a JEDZ or CRA, except under extraordinary circumstances to avoid the duplication of benefits.

·         Include language in the “Purpose” statement indicating that tax abatement is the preferred method of economic incentive favored by the City over the JC&R Grant Program, especially within tax sharing zones.

·         Require applicants on “retention” projects to commit to a major capital investment in the business or a substantial increase in employment within the three years subsequent to grant approval.

·         Require applicants claiming retention to meet one of the following three requirements that the State enforces for relocation waivers under the Economic Zone program: (1) The business cannot physically expand at the current site to the extent necessary for the proposed project; (2) Changes in market conditions such as changes in production methods, special contract provisions or ownership with specifics identified; or (3) Business consolidation that results in a 25% increase in employment and a 50% increase in real or personal property investment when all the applicant’s facilities are located within Maumee or a 25% increase in both Maumee employment and real or personal property investment when at least one of the applicant’s facilities are located outside Maumee.

·         Applicants claiming retention would be provided with a maximum of 60% of the amount of the grant that a new company would receive.

Respectfully submitted,

Brent Buehrer, Acting Chairman

2.       Conant Street/Williams Street: Add “No crossing” signs.

The Safety Committee unanimously recommends that all of the recommendations of Proudfoot Associates, Inc., to discuss a study of all streets traffic in the immediate area of the theater to determine optimal traffic directions to accommodate traffic flow and concerns of neighbors.

 

The only question concerning the swimming pool had to do with policing of speed/noise on Cass Road and maintaining litter control.  Chief Zink responded that the Division of Police and City Council/Administration all were committed to a successful and family-friendly recreational opportunity for our residents and to that end increased police presence in bicycle patrols, motor cycle patrols, and cruiser controls would take place.  Mr. Gamble will write a letter to the developer owning the wooded area across from the Rolf Park entrance to maintain that area, and Mr. Camp committed to working with youth groups and our schools as a project location for community service projects.
