The City Staff has commenced its preparation of the 2018/2019 Fiscal Budget for the budget year of July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019 and the proposed budget includes significant proposed capital projects in several of the City's operating funds. The proposed budget will be presented to the Clare City Commission at their regularly scheduled meetings in May by means of budget workshops. In accordance with the City's Charter the 2018/2019 budget is scheduled to be adopted by the Commission at its first scheduled meeting in June. The Planning Commission is required by the 2008 Michigan Planning Act to provide its recommendations related to the proposed capital improvement schedule prior to adoption of the budget by the City Commission. The Public Notice of the scheduled capital project presentation to the Planning Commission has been published in a local newspaper. Each of the City’s department heads (or their designees) presented their respective FY2018/19 recommended capital improvement projects to the Planning Commission. Additionally, Treasurer and Finance Director Steven Kingsbury along with City Manager Ken Hibl provided additional general budgetary information and planned capital projects for other key elements of the City's budget to include the Downtown Development Authority, Data Processing, etc. Fiscal impact of the proposed capital improvements is solely dependent upon the recommendations and decisions of the Planning Commission and then approval by the Clare City Commission. The 2018-19 Street Millage Funded Projects will be approximately $45,000 less than expected due to contractor bids being lower than anticipated. The planning commission is asked to consider how those funds should be used – additional road work, sidewalks, etc. (must be street related) In response to a question regarding winter weather impacts on the LED strobe lights, Gary Todd, Airport Manager, responded that the lights are designed the shed snow and should not be adversely affected by the winter weather. Fire Chief, Jim Chapman confirmed that the new portable radios are compatible will the older models the department is currently utilizing. City Manager, Ken Hibl, noted that ISO ratings are dependent on having the right equipment and proper training. Enough funds have now been raised to have a skateboard park at the new recreation complex and bids will be solicited for a 100’ x 80’ pad. A golf outing in July is expected to raise additional funds.

The City’s sign ordinance is in dire need of revision for two reasons: it has essentially been rendered invalid by a 2016 U.S. Supreme Court ruling in respect to sign content and due to significant inconsistencies and irregularities in the current ordinance. The Planning Commission is the primary overseer and responsible proponent within the City for the sign ordinance and sign standards within the City. Our City Attorney has provided via memo (copy att’d) basic guidance for the required sign revision and has included with that guidance a copy of an existing sign ordinance from the City of Holland. The Planning Commission is asked to review the City Attorney correspondence prior to the scheduled June 13th meeting and discuss and formulate a proposed plan and timeline for the needed sign ordinance revision. Issues & Questions Specified. Should the Planning Commission commence the process to revise the City’s sign ordinance? Alternatives. 1. Commence the process to revise the City’s sign ordinance. 2. Set aside the matter for further consideration and/or deliberation. Financial Impact. Presently indeterminable.
