BOARD/COMMITTEE APPOINTMENT POLICY SECTION I: SCOPE: This Policy serves to provide procedures for the acceptance of names, interview process, selection, and appointment of citizens interested in serving on Boards and Committees which are appointed by the Mayor and City Council.

Any individual who is not a resident of the City of Cleveland and who does not meet the voter qualification requirements who is currently serving on a board or committee must be a City resident to be re-appointed to the board or committee.

SECTION IV: AMENDMENT PROCEDURE: This Policy may, from time to time, be amended by a majority vote of the City Council at a regularly scheduled Council meeting. Effective Date: June 10, 2019 • Motion – Authorizing the Mayor to sign agreements with Volkert, Inc. for completing the Build Grant application and to conduct a traffic study for the Inman Street Corridor Road Diet. TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Joe Fivas, City Manager DATE: June 10, 2019 RE: Volkert Agreement(s) SUMMARY: At the last Council meeting, the City Council made a selection to negotiate with Volkert on completing the Build Grant application. City staff negotiated with Volkert and determined that the cost of the application preparation is $19,000. If we were to resubmit next year the cost for Volkert would be likely be less than the $19,000 next year. Furthermore, Volkert has discussed with TDOT and due to the nature of it being a street diet we would need to prepare a traffic study to compete for this grant. The City already knows it will need a traffic study with any changes to Inman Street. The cost for the traffic study analysis is up to $22,000. Here is the scope of work to be provided: Project Coordination: 1. Coordinate scope of work with the City of Cleveland staff, including all previous analysis, recommendations, public complaints, speed data, and available crash data. 2. Coordinate initial findings and recommendations with City: Any initial findings and/or major issues will be discussed with the City during preparation of the study. 3. Coordinate final report/recommendations with the City and TDOT: Volkert will submit the final Traffic Analysis & Road Diet Study to the City and TDOT (if necessary). Traffic & Road Diet Assessment: 1. Data collection: A site visit will be conducted and pertinent traffic data will be collected within the study area, including field measurements to verify the features of the existing roadway, pavement width, number of traffic lanes in each direction, speed limits, curband-gutter, intersection radii, bike/ped and transit access, etc. Sight distance at intersections will be analyzed. p. 506 REGULAR SESSION JUNE 10, 2019 PAGE -506- MINUTE BOOK 29 2. Traffic counts will be collected during the AM and PM peak periods on a typical weekday at the intersections listed below, as well as a 24-hour tube count along the corridor. A map of the count locations is provided as Exhibit A. • Intersection of Inman Street & Oak Street • Intersection of Inman Street & Broad Street • Intersection of Inman Street & Ocoee Street • Intersection of Inman Street & Church Street • Intersection of Inman Street & Parker Street 302 Innovation Drive, Suite 100 Franklin, Tennessee 37067 615.656.1845 www.volkert.com • Intersection of Inman Street & Wildwood Avenue • Inman Street between Oak Street & Broad Street (24-Hour Tube Count) 3. Traffic Analyses: Existing traffic volumes will be analyzed using the Highway Capacity Manual method. Levels of service will be developed. The analysis will follow the Lane Conversion Evaluation flow chart as provided in the TDOT Instructional Bulletin on Road Diet. Options for a road diet will be developed based on the results of the analyses. Recommended Traffic Calming Measures 1. Figures will be developed for the recommended road diet options and will be clearly labeled and present a visual representation of traffic volumes. The conceptual recommended measures are for illustrative purposes only. Specific roadway and construction plans will not be developed. 2. Develop recommendations: The road diet, as decided by Volkert and the City of Cleveland, will be included in the analysis and in the report. All recommended measures will include a narrative discussion with conceptual illustrations. 3. Write report: A Traffic Analysis & Road Diet Study will be developed for Inman Street that will comply with industry, City of Cleveland, and TDOT standards. Volkert understands the time sensitivity of this project. The BUILD grant application submittal date is on July 15, 2019. Volkert will work toward completion of the Traffic Analysis & Road Diet Study with this date in mind. Any work required beyond what is listed in this scope of work will be discussed with you prior to commencement and either an additional scope developed or will be billed at Volkert’s standard hourly rate. Additional work includes: Attendance at a public meeting; Additional data collection (additional count locations or times); Specific roadway/construction plans or CAD-level drawings. COMMITTEE FINDINGS: No Board or Committee action. FISCAL ANALYSIS: N/A RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of this item and allow the Mayor to sign these two agreements. p. 507 REGULAR SESSION JUNE 10, 2019 PAGE -507- MINUTE BOOK 29 • Reappointments – Senior Citizen Advisory Committee: District 1- Jimmy Armstrong for a 2-year term, District 2- Shirley Knight for a 2-year term, District 3- Ron Williams for a 2-year term, District 4- Jo Benjamin for a 2-year term. • Reappointment – Historical Commission: Randy Wood for an additional 4-year term to expire June 2023. • Reappointment – Historical Commission: Maryl Elliott for an additional 4-year term to expire June 2023. • Reappointment – Library Board: Carolyn Jackson for an additional 6-year term to expire June 2025. The motion to approve the consent agenda was seconded by Councilman Cassada; and upon roll call, the motion was unanimously passed. UNFINISHED BUSINESS There was no unfinished business. REPORTS OF MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS Councilman Estes inquired about the timeline and project coordination for the funds from the Diabetes grant, the CDBG 5-year plan, the Lyndhurst grant and if the projects will be in- house or bid out? How is this going to work by putting all the money together. Mr. Fivas stated the latest thought is the Diabetes money, which is $150,000 for three consecutive years, has some strict timelines, so we have to make sure property acquisitions are good. In total we have approximately $300,000, including CDBG money, annually to spend on those projects, which can be bid. We are evaluating sidewalks along Chippewa where we have sufficient right-of-way and could hire our third-party contractor to do the work and some can be done in-house. Councilman Estes stated it will be piece-milled. Mr. Fivas stated yes, we could do some heavy work in-house and we need to begin work by September to get the money spent throughout the year. Councilman Estes thanked Mr. Fivas for looking for a way to get the neighborhood to Blythe. Also, the hotspots on the Police monthly reports, it appears the neighborhoods are settling down. He appreciates it. Councilman Cassada inquired as to when the bids will be awarded for the Candies Lane construction project. Mr. Jobe stated the report will be on the June 24 agenda. The completion date is estimated for November 22. Councilman Cassada asked for a plan of action on traffic during the construction. Mr. Fivas stated the contractor who is awarded the bid will have to work with traffic and once we know who it is, we will work with them on a plan. Councilman Cassada stated the 8,000 cars daily and the neighborhoods have to be kept safe. As he mentioned before, the option to take the four-way stop down on Villa Drive could help move traffic through there. He is concerned about the traffic flow. Mr. Fivas stated regardless of timing anytime you block a major road there are going to be substantial concerns. We will look and do some analysis to see what we can do to lessen the impact to the neighborhoods. Councilman Cassada asked that the public be kept inform when the project will start, so they are no surprised on the first morning. He continued and asked about neighborhood speeds, the consistency and signage. Several neighborhoods have different speeds and if it could be streamlined for all neighborhoods. Mr. Fivas stated the city-wide speed limit is 30 mph, unless posted otherwise. Councilman Cassada asked about reducing the speeds in neighborhoods, like his is 20 mph, and making them consistent throughout. Mr. Fivas stated they can look into it for a consensus opinion. Most people are going to drive what they feel is safe and that’s not always the speed limit. Councilman Cassada he is just looking for public safety in the neighborhoods. Councilman May asked if the Army Corps will meet with the Council to review the flood study. Mr. Jobe stated he is still waiting on a response concerning a meeting. Councilman May stated he keeps hearing rumors that we may do away with some buildings in the floodway and possibly build some retention ponds. It would be nice to know a plan. Mr. Jobe stated there are two projects being designed now and a stream modification. When we inquire, their response is they are working through their process. Mr. Fivas stated staff will reach out to see what their plan is for Cleveland. Councilman May continued that he was resigning from the Planning p. 508 REGULAR SESSION JUNE 10, 2019 PAGE -508- MINUTE BOOK 29 Commission and just realized he would be unable to serve on the Shade Tree Board, as he was the Planning Commission representative. Someone else will have to be appointed. Councilman Webb recognized Mike Griffin, the new President and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce. He thanked him for his willingness to serve. He then thanked Codes Enforcement and anyone else involved in the work on Jones Drive. He thanked Tommy Myers for starting the process correcting the erosion problem at Robinhood Drive and Westside Drive. Lastly, Councilman Webb thanked Representative Mark Hall and Senator Mike Bell for helping with the private act Charter amendment concerning voting and property rights. Vice Mayor Johnson reported high grass at the corner of Villa and Hwy 60, which blocks visibility. Mr. Fivas said we will take care of it. Councilman McKenzie stated the two lots in front of the new Candy’s Creek Elementary school are approximately $600,000, of the $12-15 million we gave them was that not enough remaining to purchase them. Mr. Fivas replied we will need additional information and to have discussion with the School Board and bring options back. Councilman McKenzie stated we already owned one of these and swapped it out. Mr. Fivas stated correct, there is a long history and we can bring back options for the Council to consider. Mayor Brooks recognized Mike Griffin and his new venture leading the Chamber of Commerce and looked forward to the partnership. Mayor Brooks then introduced intern Levi Whitman, who recently graduated from McCallie School. He will be shadowing several people before he begins Cleveland State in the fall with their Agriculture Program. His family owns the buffalo farm here in Cleveland.

The area is inside the existing Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). The proposed annexation is proposed to occur in 2019. This report begins with a brief overview of the annexation process and the report then turns to a proposed Plan of Services (POS) for the annexation area. The services described are those that would be necessary for the City to provide under Tennessee law. This area is proposed to receive city services in accordance with the POS. Introduction Public Chapter 1101 (PC 1101), adopted as Tennessee law in 1998, required cities to work cooperatively with other local governments to determine an urban growth boundary (UGB) in which annexations could occur. Cleveland has a twenty-nine square mile UGB that was based on a study of urbanization and service requirements in a fifty square mile urban fringe area. The UGB was amended in January 2010, expanding it near I-75 Exit 20 and in the vicinity of the new airport site near Dry Valley Road. Cleveland can annex property within its UGB by resolution. PC 1101 Section 19 requires a “Plan of Services” (POS) prior to annexation and these services must include: police and fire protection: water, electrical and sanitary sewer services; solid waste collection; road and street construction and repair; recreational facilities and programs; street lighting; and zoning services. Public Chapter 225 adopted by the Tennessee General Assembly and signed by Governor Bredesen on June 2, 2003, amended TCA 6-51-102 to include impact on school attendance zones. This property currently has one single family home and there are no immediate plans to alter the site. The property is described as Tax Map 56 Parcel 79.13. 2764 South Lee Highway p. 515 REGULAR SESSION JUNE 10, 2019 PAGE -515- MINUTE BOOK 29 Legal Description Beginning at the northwesternmost line of US Highways 11 and 64, also known as South Lee Highway, said point of beginning being the northeastern corner of the lands of Henry; and run thence with the northeastern most line of the lands of Henry, North 66 degrees 45 minutes West, 300.0 feet to a corner; thence North 42 degrees 46 minutes East, 200.0 feet to a corner; thence South 66 degrees 45 minutes East, 300.0 feet to an iron pin set in the Northwesternmost line of US Highways 11 and 64; run thence with said line of said highways, South 42 degrees 46 minutes West, 200.0 feet to the northeasternmost corner of the lands of Henry, the place of beginning.

Current city policies regarding residential debris, brush, and white good collections will apply in all proposed areas and will begin at the time of annexation. Each residence will p. 516 REGULAR SESSION JUNE 10, 2019 PAGE -516- MINUTE BOOK 29 be included in the City’s ten route collection system. No additional equipment or manpower will be needed at this time. b. The current city policies regarding residential leaf collection will be provided annually for a period of approximately three months and will apply in all proposed areas. C. Street Repair and Maintenance a. Emergency maintenance of city streets (i.e. repairing hazardous potholes) within the proposed areas will begin at time of annexation. b.

It appears that no street name signs or street striping/painting is needed at this time for the proposed areas. D. Stormwater and Drainage Services No major drainage problems were identified in these areas. Emergency drainage maintenance (i.e. cleaning catch basins, unstopping tile, installing drainage tile and/or catch basins) within these areas will begin at time of annexation. E. General Rights-of-Way Maintenance (i.e. street sweeping, snow removal) a. Current city policies for routine street sweeping will be scheduled on the same basis as in the rest of the City and will apply in all proposed areas. b.

In the case of lots of record that are recorded prior to the effective date of annexation, if there are prevailing deed or subdivision restrictions on record, these deed or subdivision restrictions shall apply if in conflict with City zoning or subdivision regulations. 8. Animal Shelter The City operates a full-time animal control program including an animal shelter. The Animal Shelter is located on Hill Street SE. Services include pick-up of stray and/or dangerous animals. These services will be available to the annexation areas on the effective date of the annexation. 9. Voting Rights and City Elections A. If an eligible voter’s permanent place of residence is located in an annexed area, that voter is automatically eligible to vote in City elections. B. If an eligible voter is in the category of a property rights voter then that voter must register at the Election Commission Office prior to voting in a City election. C. This annexation will add approximately 3 residents to the 1st City Council District as it is currently used. Revenue The current property assessment for this property is $159,100. This would result in a total assessed value is $39,776. The property tax generated from this area in its current condition would be about $819.39 a year. The area is currently has one single family residential unit. The current state shared appropriation is $115.75 per resident which would result in approximately $347.25 a year. The monthly stormwater fee associated with this property would be $4.88 per month or $58.56 annually.
