COMMUNICATIONS MISCELLANEOUS

Dear Honorable Mayor James DeSana,

My term on the Beautification Commission expires in April, 2007 and I am respectfully requesting not to be reappointed.

Sincerely,

Mayor James R. DeSana and City Council 3131 Biddle Ave.
Wyandotte, MI 48192

Dear Mayor DeSana and City Council:

I am writing to follow up on the issue of "no fishing" at the Perry Place road ending. This issue was originally brought forward to the Mayor and City Council by the letter of a resident, which was addressed at the June 5, 2006 City Council meeting. A resolution (by Councilperson Fricke) was passed, referring the issue to the City Engineer, Superintendent of Recreation, and Chief of Police, for a review and report back to Council in one week.

The minutes from the June 12, 2006 City Council meeting reflect that the City Engineer (Mark A. Kowalewski), Superintendent of Recreation (James R. Knopp), and Chief of Police (Bobbie Heck), reported that the City Council confirmed in 1992 that "no fishing" and "no swimming" signs be placed at this location. The Department of Public Service confirmed that the signs are in place.

After becoming aware of this issue, I addressed a letter to Mayor DeSana and City Council asking that they re-consider this matter. A resolution was passed at the July 10, 2006 City Council meeting asking the City Engineer, Superintendent of Recreation, and Department of Legal Affairs for a review of this issue and report back in three weeks. However, I cannot find records in City Council meeting minutes where this resolution was addressed.

I am writing to request the outcome of the July 10, 2006 resolution regarding fishing access at Perry Place. Furthermore, the minutes from the June 12, 2006 City Council meeting reflect that the Council confirmed "no fishing" is allowed at this location. However, no statute or ordinances were specifically cited. Please provide me with the statute or ordinance that prohibits fishing at this location.

Sincerely,

James T. Francis, MDNR-Fisheries Division
26000 W. Eight Mile Road, Southfield, MI 48034



PERSONS IN THE AUDIENCE

Frank LaBeau, 6 Perry Place, relative to fishing in area.
Mike Brown, 6 Perry Place, relative to fishing in area.

Dear Mayor and City Councilmembers:

The Honorable Mayor James R. DeSana And City Council
City Hall

Dear Mayor and Council,

On April 3, 2006, the Mayor and Council authorized the undersigned to negotiate a Cooperative Agreement with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regarding the use of a $300,000 grant the City received to further capitalize the City's existing Brownfields Cleanup Revolving Loan Fund (RLF). Enclosed is the proposed "Assistance Agreement" with the EPA (Enclosure 1).

The RLF was initially established in 2003 through the receipt of a $1,000,000 EPA grant. The RLF allows the City to provide no-interest or low-interest loans to conduct cleanup activities on City-owned brownfield properties. The loan fund will "revolve" when the City uses tax increment revenue to make loan repayments and then makes new loans at other sites for the same authorized purposes. The City's initial grant was depleted as a result of the Labadie Park project and it will be 10 years or more before there is a sufficient loan fund balance (i.e. more that $250,000) to make another substantial loan. Please see the enclosed application materials and the amended Work Plan for additional information (Enclosure 2).

It should be noted that preparation and approval of the Agreement was delayed because the project for which funds were initially requested – the Morningside Group condominium project – was canceled. The proposed Agreement and amended Work Plan allows using the funds to remediate any eligible property in the City. As with the previous grant, this grant requires a 20% match from the City. At this time, the Consolidated Tax Increment Finance Authority has budgeted for the $60,000 match required. If the actual project location is outside of the TWA boundaries, a separate funding source must be identified.

The undersigned recommends that the Mayor and Council adopt the following resolution (Enclosure 3) approving the Assistance Agreement and amended Work Plan and authorizing the undersigned to sign the "Affirmation of Award" on the City's behalf.

Very truly yours,

Joseph M. Voszatka, Community Development Director

This includes termination of the Architectural Agreement to renovate the existing Police Department and building a new Court with Sarnacki & Associates Architects, Inc.

Also, the attached proposed Resolution will authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the First Amendment.

Very truly yours,

Dear Mayor & Council

I am writing about the vacant lot at 1041 Eureka. It is only 42 ft and not buildable.

My neighbors of over 25 years (Larry & Beth Howard) and I wish to purchase said property. We have both contacted the Engineering Department but heard nothing.

You are aware of the parking problem in our section of Eureka.

The Howards have three grown children who have a problem parking when visiting. They ysed to use Ann Grahl’s driveway with her permission.

I contacted the Assessor’s Office and was told the City still owned the property.

The lot is a mess as is our alley.

We would both like to purchase this and get it cleaned up.

Thanking you in advance for your cooperation I remain

Sincerely,

Rosemary Acierno
1057 Eureka, Wyandotte, MI 48192

P.S. I plan to garden and to landscape. I’m sure to improve the looks after all we are on Eureka the gate to town.

Dear Mayor and Council,

Larry and Beth Howard, 1033 Eureka Rd. Wyandotte

We are very interested in the property at 1041 Eureka. We have lived at 1033 for 26 yrs. Our family is growing quite fast. The parking on Eureka Rd. is just not enough and the extra space would be fantastic. We would like to split the property with Rose, the adjoining neighbor. We would like to make the driveway wider for parking. We would also like to plant flowers and fence the remaining. Both of us on each side of 1041 Eureka have been taking care of this property and the owner for many, many years.

Thank You,

Larry and Beth Howard
