Kimball ___________________________ City Attorney Kevin Brooks, Mayor ___________________________ Shawn McKay, City Clerk • Motion – To modify the City’s Promotion Pay Rate. TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Joe Fivas, City Manager DATE: January 10, 2022 RE: Modification to Promotion Pay Rate SUMMARY: For the past decade the City has had a policy to raise employee’s compensation from a minimum 8.2% when they are promoted up one position. During the Compensation Study this promotion policy was recommended to be modified, by our consultants, to a pay increase of 5.0% for a one position promotion. Since this was adopted, we’ve had several discussions with Department Manager’s about this policy, and they have recommended to reconsider this policy. I am recommending to modify the Compensation Study completed this summer to move the promotion percentage back to the previous ‘Promotion Policy’ that is outlined in our current Personnel Manual on page 19. In looking at the totality of the situation, and balancing fairness and promotion equity issues, I believe this would be the best to make sure our pay standards don’t suffer and that we remain competitive in the marketplace, and within our own organization. Furthermore, I’ve been asked to address the status of our annual pay increases that are recommended by the City Manager and approved by the City Council. For the past, eight years the City has been able to give employee’s an 3.5% step increase. My intent, as City Manager, is to continue this policy of a 3.5% increase recommendation, unless budgetary issues or cost of living dictate a higher or lower recommendation. 3.5% is our annual goal and we will do what we can to accomplish this goal on an annual basis. COMMITTEE FINDINGS: No Committee or Board action. p. 530 REGULAR SESSION JANAURY 10, 2022 PAGE -530- MINUTE BOOK 30 FISCAL ANALYSIS: Limited financial impact to the City. RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends changing the 5.0% promotion policy as approved in the compensation study for a pay increase to use the same ‘Promotion’ policy that is currently stated in our Personnel Manual. UNFINISHED BUSINESS No unfinished business. REPORTS OF MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS Councilwoman McKenzie stated in reference to the tire dumping we are experiencing in Bradley County, in specifically District 1, she would like something to be done further on the State level. Mayor Brooks stated we have had multiple tire dumping sites in Cleveland and Bradley County. Discussions have taken place about the inability of law enforcement to act with strength based on the Tennessee Code Annotated and the lack of enforcement capability the Code gives local law enforcement both penalties as well as prosecution by the District Attorney. Councilwoman McKenzie has expressed she would like a resolution on the next agenda to send to Nashville requesting Representative Hall, Representative Howell, Senator Bell and Senator Gardenhire to look at and consider increasing the penalties for illegal tire dumping. Mayor Brooks has been told there is no difference between throwing out a hamburger wrapper and dumping a tire. Councilman Estes asked that the Gaut Street sidewalk project include from College Hill to 3rd Street. He is excited to get the project started this summer. City Manager Joe Fivas agreed. Councilman Cassada stated he would like to offer full support of Councilman May’s request that Michigan Avenue Road be widened and made safer for our residents. Councilman Hughes stated before the holidays several city departments gathered together and Councilman Webb, Councilwoman McKenzie and himself joined the festivities. It was a good chance to visit with employees. Secondly, he would like to see something happen with the tire dumping issue. Mr. Larry Armour probably has been hit harder than anyone with approximately 8,000-10,000 tires dumped on his property. The penalty is nothing for dumping tires. Mayor Brooks thanked Councilman Estes for serving on the 100-year Anniversary Committee for the Cleveland Bradley County Public Library.

Exhibit C includes a survey of the PUD 32 boundary. p. 537 REGULAR SESSION JANAURY 10, 2022 PAGE -537- MINUTE BOOK 30 Section 4. GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND DEVELOPMENT DENSITY. This section is intended to provide a general description of the Michigan Ave Rd and Wilkinson Rd Property Development. The project is residential in nature and would allow a mixture of detached single-family homes on small lots and smaller number of attached single-family dwellings in multi-unit townhome structures. Lots for attached multi-unit townhome units may constitute no more than 25 percent of the overall subdivision lots within the greater development. Exhibit B shows the general location of developable areas however the exact infrastructure and common areas shall be determined through the preliminary plat process. In terms of total allowable density, the project shall not exceed one unit per 4000 square feet for lots containing single-family detached homes; two units per 7500 square feet; three units per 10,000 square feet, and four units per 12,500 square feet. The developer shall include common open space designed within the development, including any permanent retention or detention pond areas or landscaped common area equal to 10 percent of subdivision. Section 5. PERMITTED USES AND PROHIBITED USES. The PUD 32 Subdivision allows for the construction of up to 400 dwelling units in detached single family houses and multi-unit townhome structures with up to four dwelling units per building. Streets, sidewalks, drainage structures, fire hydrants, utilities, and the like are allowed. Residential amenities such as a community pool, clubhouse, etc. are allowed in the event that the developer wishes to amend the conceptual plan through the Cleveland Municipal Planning Commission. Nothing herein should be construed as prohibiting the Developer from making further refinements to the development plan of PUD 32 that would further restrict the allowable uses within a particular part of the development or from excluding a particular use from the development altogether through the operation of private restrictions or covenants. Home occupations permitted in Cleveland’s zoning ordinance are allowed unless prohibited by the Developer. There are no conditional uses within the PUD 32 district. Uses other than those described as permitted or allowed herein are prohibited. Section 6. CONCEPTUAL PLAN AND RELATED REQUIREMENTS. 6.A. CONCEPTUAL PLAN. A conceptual plan (Exhibit B) for PUD 32, Michigan Ave Rd and Wilkinson Rd Property Development was prepared for submission to the Cleveland Municipal Planning Commission for consideration in the regular meeting on December 14, 2021. The conceptual plan consists of a site plan for the overall development however additional drawings, documents, and permits routinely required for a subdivision are expected for review and approval prior to construction. The Conceptual Plan shows the general developable areas within the PUD 32 boundaries however the final development shall have fewer connections to existing public streets, more connectivity between development areas and the general layout shall be shown on a preliminary plat for the entire area to be reviewed and approved by Cleveland Municipal Planning Commission through the platting process. Plats for any multi-family residential units must be reviewed by the Planning Commission, however, any modification may not increase the total number of dwelling units beyond 400 without a revision to the PUD ordinance approved by the City Council. Additional plans, plats, and other development-related documents and permits will be necessary to carry out the construction of this project. It is recognized that the plats and site plans for The Michigan Ave Rd and Wilkinson Rd Property Development will ultimately reflect some alteration in the conceptual plan such as the exact location of each specific residential development typology within the residential areas. Other variations will include the width or alignment of streets, or the precise placement of buildings and proposed common areas and features. Connections from the subdivision to the existing public street network shall be limited to Wilkinson Rd and no driveway shall be connected to Michigan Ave Rd. p. 538 REGULAR SESSION JANAURY 10, 2022 PAGE -538- MINUTE BOOK 30 All streets within the PUD 32 Michigan Ave Rd and Wilkinson Rd Property Development shall be constructed with adequate ROW and curb to accommodate the installation of sidewalks on one side of the street, and the ROW shall be 40 feet wide. The developer will have three options to provide walking areas for the recreational benefit of the residents of the subdivision. The builders shall choose one of these three options. The first option is for the builder to construct sidewalks on one-side of the street for any stretch of continuous roadway that is over 500 linear feet. The second option is for the HOA to construct a paved walking path with the minimum linear length of 3500 feet in the recreational open space areas and a minimum width of five feet. This length also includes the paved pathway that connects the neighborhood to the actual open space areas. This paved pathway needs to be constructed when the neighborhood reaches 90% of the buildout of the platted lots, or have a bond in place with the City to secure the construction of these pathways. The builders will substantially fund this pathway when it creates the HOA. The third option is for the builder to make a payment to the City Sidewalk Fund of $3500.00 per every 100 linear feet of required sidewalk by City staff in option one at 75% of the build-out of the platted lots. The developer shall dedicate 10 feet of right away along Wilkinson Road from Michigan Avenue to Brock Road. The subdivision is allowed three entrances onto Wilkinson Road, but the Planning Commission may provide a fourth entrance if there are demonstrated geographical hardships. 6.B. PLATS. One or more plats will be prepared for the PUD 32 property by the Developer for approval in accordance with the City of Cleveland, Tennessee subdivision regulations. These plats will describe and dedicate public streets any other public properties; identify lots; and identify easements that are necessary for various purposes within the development such as utilities, access, maintenance, and conservation, etc. A preliminary plat shall be prepared for the entire development and not for individual phases. Final plat approval may be granted for the various phases within the PUD 32 development. 6.C. PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT DOCUMENTS. The Developer shall prepare and implement such master covenants, restrictions, condominium association documents, common area agreements, and the like which the Developer determines are necessary to carry out the development of PUD 32 as envisioned herein. It is a requirement of this ordinance that such documents are in place and enforced by the Developer (or Developer’s heirs, successors, or assigns) to the extent necessary for PUD 32 to function as described herein. The City of Cleveland assumes no responsibility to review these documents, or to determine their adequacy to these purposes, or to enforce any of their provisions, or to otherwise be a party to them. Section 7.A. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS The development standards for PUD32 shall be those established in this ordinance or incorporated herein. Where development standards are not otherwise included in this ordinance, the standards shall be those in the R2 zone, from the City of Cleveland’s zoning regulations.

The motion was seconded by Councilman Hughes; and upon roll call, unanimously passed. The following memorandum item was then presented: TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Joe Fivas, City Manager DATE: January 10, 2022 RE: Street Sweeper Purchase SUMMARY: The City’s Street Sweeper was destroyed with a fire in December. Public Works has determined to purchase a new and updated Street Sweeper. The City will purchase off this item off a government contract from CMI Equipment Sales for $303,150. This equipment should hopefully last for approximately 20 years. The City insurance will pay approximately 2/3 of the cost of replacement, and the remainder will be paid from Stormwater Funds, or other federal funds. The City has federal mandate to use a Street Sweeper to keep dirt and other materials from reaching streams to maintain higher quality run-off. COMMITTEE FINDINGS: No Committee or Board action. FISCAL ANALYSIS: Limited financial impact to the City. RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends purchasing the Schwarze HyperVac for $303,150.00 Councilman Cassada moved to purchase the Schwarze HyperVac Street Sweeper for Public Works Department as outlined in the memorandum from Mr. Fivas. The motion was seconded by Councilwoman McKenzie; and upon roll call, unanimously passed. p. 543 REGULAR SESSION JANAURY 10, 2022 PAGE -543- MINUTE BOOK 30 The following memorandum item was then presented: TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Joe Fivas, City Manager DATE: January 10, 2022 RE: Ladder Truck Purchase SUMMARY: City staff is requesting the purchase of a new 100’ Ladder Truck to replace a 23-year old 75’ Ladder Truck. The current Ladder Truck is in decent shape, but with the 16-month delivery time for this new Ladder Truck we want to be proactive in our replacement. The cost of this Enforcer Custom 100’ Ladder Truck is $1,600,513.00. These payments will be spread out over three Fiscal Years as outlined in the attached agreement. The City will primarily pay for this item through our City Apparatus Fund, potential sale of current Ladder Truck, and potentially other federal grants. The City will save approximately $125,000 in purchasing this vehicle if you take into account for known price increases in 2022. The next Fire Truck purchase will be in Fiscal Year 2026 to replace an engine. COMMITTEE FINDINGS: No Committee or Board action. FISCAL ANALYSIS: Limited financial impact to the City. RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends purchasing the Pierce Enforcer Custom 100’ Platform Truck for $1,600,513.00. This is contingent upon the City Attorney’s review and approval of the purchase agreement. The Mayor may sign once approval given from City Attorney and CFO.
