Background: At the August 3, 2026, meeting, City Commission will be asked to consider a resolution to place a debt millage request on the November 3, 2026, ballot. This request would fund bonds to finance the City’s half of a potential parking deck on Bagley Street in partnership with East Grand Rapids Public Schools. City Commission has requested a discussion on funding options prior to the August 3 meeting. Below is a discussion of options for City Commission’s consideration. Funding public improvements can be done in few ways. In this situation there are two options: 1) Pay for the project from existing resources, or 2) Issue debt in the form of General Obligation Bonds Given the City’s portion could be $7-8 million, reallocating existing resources would be difficult. The City has two ways to approach the second option of issuing debt for the potential Bagley Lot. The first is with voter-approved Unlimited Tax General Obligation (UTGO) bonds. The second is with non-voter-approved Limited Tax General Obligation (LTGO) bonds. With the first option, the City levies an additional millage to cover the cost of annual debt service. With the second option involving LTGOs, the City uses existing General Fund revenue to fund the bonds. The advantage of a voter-approved issuance is this: If the economy experiences a downturn, and general fund revenues drop, the City does not have resources tied up in debt service, which must always be paid. With the Limited Tax General Obligation (LTGO) option, bonds are repaid using the City's existing General Fund revenues, so they do not require a new property tax (millage). The current projected interest rate for a 20-year $8 million bond issuance is 3.91% and the bonds would carry an average annual debt service of $575,000. With any bond issuance, actual interest rates will not be known until the day of the sale. The City’s financial advisor, Municipal Finance Consultants (MFCI), has updated their earlier projections with current market rates. MFCI has indicated there would be a minor difference between LTGO and UTGO rates of a few basis points. Procedurally, before the City can issue these bonds, Michigan law requires the City Commission to approve a Notice of Intent resolution. After the notice is published, there is a 45-day period during which residents may petition to require a public vote on the bonds before they can be issued. To place the issue on the ballot, the petition must be signed by at least 10% of the City's registered voters. If enough valid signatures are collected, the bond proposal must be submitted to voters at a future election. CITY REVENUES – ROAD FUNDING In 2025, the State of Michigan adopted a new road funding package that provides additional resources to local Act 51 agencies. The new funds are designated Neighborhood Road Funds (NRF) and carry the same use restrictions as Major & Local street funds received through Act 51. This question has been posed: Can the City use these new funds to offset the current $1 million General Fund transfer to the municipal street fund, thus freeing that resource to be used for the potential Bagley Parking Deck. The short answer is yes; with an understanding these revenues are still in question due to an ongoing legal challenge to the marijuana tax part of the formula. February 2026 estimates showed that East Grand Rapids will receive the following NRF amounts. Estimated Revenues Fiscal Estimated Revenues Estimated Revenues City/Village Year 2026 Fiscal Year 2027 Fiscal Year 2028 East Grand Rapids 429,861.97 537,468.31 593,243.33 As part of the new road funding package, the State’s 6% sales tax on fuel was eliminated resulting in an annual loss 10% loss in constitutional revenue sharing – a roughly $110,000 reduction to the General Fund. The chart below accounts for this loss of constitutional revenue sharing.

The delay was expected as Public Act 20 of 2025 required other funding sources to be filled before local agencies received their funds. In May 2026, MDOT shared an update stating that enough revenue has been collected to fund the required $100 million in local bridge funds. (email attached). TOTAL ROAD FUNDING The City receives both local and major street funds through Act 51. Before the new road funding package, the City received about $1.5 million annually ($1.1 million Majors Streets, $421,000 local). These funds are supplemented by the $1 million General Fund transfer and $2 million street millage revenue. Total revenues of $4.5 million. Compare this to $1.8 million the City was investing in 2015. These additional resources have greatly improved our overall street network as demonstrated by our annual PASER Ratings. Percentage of Roads in Good/Fair Condition (PASER Ratings 5-10) 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Projected No Millage Actual  The blue line shows road condition projection if no additional funding was received. The green line projects road conditions through the 10-year period of the Street & Sidewalk Millage using the additional 2.0 mills approved by EGR residents. The red line shows current ratings with approved millage. HOW COULD THE ADDITIONAL FUNDING BE USED? Streets, like any public infrastructure, require ongoing maintenance and investment. With additional funds – both the renewed millage and new state road funding – the City will be able to take a more comprehensive approach to street rehabilitation projects. With recent projects such as Hall Street and Cambridge Boulevard, the City was able to address design issues with the existing medians. In the past, to assure we addressed every street in ten years, many smaller issues were not looked at while we focused on pavement smoothness. As we begin another investment cycle, the additional resources mean we are: • Able to keep up with ongoing inflationary pressure, • Able to address smaller issues when we rehabilitate a street, and • Undertake more intensive rehabilitations, including the resolution of issues such as storm water drainage throughout the City, where there are residential driveway approaches that experience ponding after rain events (referred to as bird baths). More intensive rehabilitations also include addressing road base issues and funding full reconstructions when warranted. Next Steps At the August 3rd City Commission meeting we will be presenting the final parking design concept and updated estimates. At the meeting, the City Commission could make the following decisions: 1) Place the parking deck funding proposal on the ballot for voters to decide. 2) Delay a decision until additional information is available. 3) Decide not to move forward with the project. 4) Move forward with the project by financing it with non-voter-approved bonds. City staff will be available to discuss these options and answer questions. ________________________ Shea Charles, City Manager  City of East Grand Rapids General Obligation Limited Tax Bonds, Series 2027 Tax Levy Analysis - Preliminary Numbers 20-Year Amortization as of 7/14/2026 The Proposed Bonds Estimated TIC - 3.91%2 Debt Service 2026 Bonds Calculated Levy Date Fiscal Year Taxable Estimated Required 1-Jul June 30, Value 1 Principal Interest 2 Debt Service Millage Rate 2026 2027 $1,096,707,629 - - - - 2027 2028 1,118,641,782 $295,000 $280,950 $575,950 0.5149 2028 2029 1,141,014,617 300,000 273,280 573,280 0.5025 2029 2030 1,163,834,910 310,000 265,360 575,360 0.4944 2030 2031 1,187,111,608 320,000 256,835 576,835 0.4860 2031 2032 1,210,853,840 325,000 247,875 572,875 0.4732 2032 2033 1,235,070,917 335,000 238,483 573,483 0.4644 2033 2034 1,259,772,335 345,000 228,500 573,500 0.4553 2034 2035 1,284,967,782 360,000 217,943 577,943 0.4498 2035 2036 1,310,667,137 370,000 206,531 576,531 0.4399 2036 2037 1,336,880,480 380,000 194,543 574,543 0.4298 2037 2038 1,363,618,090 395,000 181,737 576,737 0.4230 2038 2039 1,390,890,452 405,000 168,149 573,149 0.4121 2039 2040 1,418,708,261 420,000 153,933 573,933 0.4046 2040 2041 1,447,082,426 435,000 138,897 573,897 0.3966 2041 2042 1,476,024,074 455,000 122,672 577,672 0.3914 2042 2043 1,505,544,556 470,000 104,972 574,972 0.3820 2043 2044 1,535,655,447 490,000 86,266 576,266 0.3753 2044 2045 1,566,368,556 510,000 66,323 576,323 0.3680 2045 2046 1,597,695,927 530,000 45,311 575,311 0.3601 2046 2047 1,629,649,845 550,000 23,210 573,210 0.3518 $8,000,000 $3,501,766 $ 11,501,766 Average Annual Millage Rate: 0.4288 1.

Neighborhood Roads Fund (NRF) Revenue Update To All Counties, Cities, and Villages Before any Neighborhood Roads Fund (NRF) dollars can be distributed to counties, cities, or villages, several statutory carveouts must be met. The first $100 million is allocated to the Local Critical Bridge Program. The next $40 million is directed to the Local Grade Separation Fund. Following that, $100 million supports Public Transportation, with $35 million going to the Comprehensive Transportation Fund and $65 million to the Infrastructure Projects Authority Fund. Once these carveouts have been satisfied, the remaining funds are divided with 80 percent going to Local Agencies and 20 percent to the State Trunkline Fund. Of the 80 percent distributed to Local Agencies, 65 percent will go to Counties and 35 percent to Cities and Villages. These distributions will follow the formulas specified in Act 51, Sections 12 and 13. 1 Since this is the first month MDOT has received the new wholesale marihuana revenue, we have just begun funding the first $100 million required for the Local Critical Bridge Program.

Director Melville said that he was and noted that it is still being refined and developing programs. Commissioner Schwartz reviewed her questions that came up during the finance meeting. 2  Commissioner Burdick has two kids in programs and loves it. He stated that Coach Shattuck is a great middleman for the players. Commissioner Groff-Blaszak asked what the long-term projection for the Vertical Alignment was.

Provide staff with feedback related to their preference of Middle School Athletics pricing Option #1, Option #2 or Option #3 as outlined in the memo. Parks and Recreation Director Melville reviewed the request. Commissioner Groff-Blaszak asked how we will be subsidizing families in need and what if they don’t qualify for free/reduced lunches. Director Melville said that the program guide now includes verbiage about funding through the Schools’s Foundation and noted that the form is online and noted that the Foundation could take circumstances into consideration. Commissioner Burdick asked about a button for donations on the website. Director Melville stated that currently our software does not allow this, but we would have to look into this. Commissioner Schwartz asked how the high school structures their fees and if there have been any complaints. Director Melville stated that they charge a flat fee of $250 for all school funded sports and he has not had any complaints about this, but he probably would not be the one to hear about them. He also noted that a flat rate is pretty consistent throughout schools districts. Nyal Deems, 701 Laurel Circle, feels that the fees are too much for middle school sports. Commissioner Schwartz is between Option 2 and Option 3 but is leaning toward the flat fee to be consistent with the high school. Commissioner Wessely feels Option 3 is the fairest. 3  Commissioner Burdick is between Option 2 and Option 3 and noted that it is still more affordable than outside club sports. He would like to revisit in one year. Commissioner Groff-Blaszak said that Option 2 is the most equitable and knowing how much the fee will be will help family budget and is the simplest. 2026-130-A. Groff-Blaszak-Schwartz. To approve pricing Option 2, flat fee, as outlined in the memo. Commissioner Schwartz likes the consistency of Option 2 and would like to see feedback on it. Commissioner Wessely believes Option 3 is the best and fairest. There was discussion about different sports and keeping and giving back uniforms. City Manager Charles said that the proposed fees have been reviewed by the Parks and Recreation Commission and finance. There is flexibility to revisit this in the future. Yeas: Burdick, Groff-Blaszak, Schwartz, and Favale – 4 Nays: Wessely - 1 2026-131. Consider approval of the Waterfront Park Phase II conceptual plan and authorize City staff and consultants to proceed with final design efforts. Parks and Recreation Director Melville reviewed the request. Commissioner Schwartz asked about the process and if the final design would come back to us and wondered what the surface of the parking lot would be. Director Melville stated that it would come back to the Commission and the material for the parking lot is not decided yet. Commissioner Burdick said that in the Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, they focused on making sure that the trails would be ADA compatible for all types of users, not spooking all the birds away, making the trails exclusively walking trails and using the history of the property as a teaching tool. Mayor Favale asked when a decision about the trails being walkable only gets made and wondered if the playground was part of the original grant. Director Melville the trails were something that could certainly be discussed and voted on and the playground was not included in the original grant application because it would not help with the scoring. 4  Commissioner Wessely asked if the DNR grant was final. Director Melville stated that it would not be final until final plans were drawn, EGLE permit obtained and agreement was signed. Commissioner Groff-Blaszak asked what degree of certainty there is to be within the grant amount and if it ends up costing more, do we have the option of pulling money from elsewhere. Director Melville stated that there is no degree of certainty until cost estimates are done. City Manager Charles said that if more money is needed, it will come back to the Commission. Commissioner Groff-Blaszak asked about the level of accessibility and does not see the need for more parking and would like it to be scaled back. Director Melville said that all elements have to be ADA accessible and will be reviewed by the DNR. He noted that there was some level of interest in added parking and that it was up for discussion. Commissioner Schwartz thought parking was part of the grant. Director Melville said that it was on the application and noted that some ADA spots would have to be added. Judy Baxter, Hall St., spoke about Phase I when she was on the Parks and Recreation Commission, spoke about the parking in the new plan and asked for the consideration of wildlife. Nyal Deems, 701 Laurel Circle, says his comments were not incorporated in the community engagement. He does not want changes to the park. Commissioner Wessely would like to see dedicated trailer parking. Commissioner Burdick said that the land is in bad shape, is in support of everything, but doesn’t like more surface parking, but understands we have a grant, likes the pull through and angled parking. Commissioner Schwartz is enthusiastic about rejuvenating the area back to native species, wants to protect natural areas with toddler friendly playground, wants kids in nature with logs to walk on, tree teepees, natural elements and noted that the survey showed wanting more parking in this area. She likes the in and out drives and is a hard no on trailer parking. Commissioner Groff-Blaszak said that expansion of the parking is a sticking point for her and is concerned about the scope of the project. City Manager Charles noted that there could be future discussions on parking and Director Melville noted that the EGLE permit can be scaled back. Mayor Favale loves the plan, noted that buckhorns are everywhere, native species are needed, this has been talked about for decades and doesn’t want to lose the grant due to parking. 5 2026-131-A.

PUBLIC HEARING - PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT PHASE I FINAL PLAN FOR 515 LAKESIDE DR (GASLIGHT INVESTORS). Attorney Mike Roth gave an update regarding the lawsuit and stated that it does not provide a stay regarding the final plans moving forward. The lawsuit is narrow and relates to a procedural issue. We are in the middle of the discovery phase. Mr. Roth did notify the Plaintiff’s attorney that Phase I final site plan was being brought to the Planning Commission and noted to them that it was up to the Plaintiff to file a motion to stop it from proceeding. They have chosen not to do this. Zoning Administrator Jay Gianotti reviewed the Phase 1 final plan, reviewed the standards and why/how they are met and if they could be met, wayfinding signage, street names and access points. Mr. Gianotti reviewed the landscaping, maintenance, stormwater, adequate lighting, and trash collection. The Planning Commission had the following questions. Chairperson Mapes: Asked about the landscaping on Lakeside to deter pedestrians from crossing in an unsafe location that could be added. Gianotti: Reviewed the map to show the area of concern. Commissioner Rosmarin: Asked about the easement. City Manager Charles: The two parties are in negotiations. The easement has to be in place prior to building permits being issued. Commissioner Feyen: Asked about the HOA being responsible for maintenance and wondered if that was enforceable. La Fave: That is something that is addressed in the HOA agreement. Commissioner Schwartz: Asked what happens if the easement is not agreed upon. City Manager Charles: said that it was an ongoing matter of discussion. Commissioner Feyen: asked if it could prevent the bike pathway City Manager Charles: said that it was in negotiations. Mike Corby, Integrated Architecture, reviewed the proposed buildings and changes that have been implemented since the previous meeting. Each unit will have one secure space per unit and one space per bedroom for parking. The plan will have a bike path even if the location has to be shifted. A bike rack was added, along with green space and two-tiered landscaping. Commissioner Tilma: Wondered if building G and F could be moved five feet to allow for a wider sidewalk. Corby: This is not the main walkway and runs behind the buildings, so they feel this is fine. Commissioner Schwartz: There has been some criticism about the choice of materials on buildings G and H. People feel it is a little too trendy and modern. Corby: The bottom of the buildings is brick and the top is stone. It is mid-century modern, timeless, which is very popular on the east side of the state. They prioritized a lot of glass and want to stay with more neutral colors. Chairperson Mapes: Asked if they thought the materials would get time stamped. Corby: Does not think they will.  Commissioner Michell: He likes the design and materials. Commissioner Feyen: Wondered if they had given any thought to a rooftop area with a rain garden or something. Corby: They have to look at the affordability of something like this and said that there is not a large number of units to amortize something like this, but they did look at it. Commissioner Tilma: Asked if the pedestrian path would be cleared in the winter. Corby: Yes, it would be. Public Hearing opened at 6:29 p.m. Koller Stanley, 2235 Boston, likes the building design and would consider these buildings to be a trend. Judy Frey noted that there is no place in the City for a museum and would like to bring history to the development with street names and maybe a history park or story walk. David Decker, 925 Bellclaire, spoke about the protest petitions and the number of votes needed at the City Commission level. Judy Baxter, Hall St, spoke about the project being too big and noted the Planning Commission’s duty. John Chronowski, 775 Bagley, spoke about the lawsuit, development and noted that the parking garage being an unnecessary tax. Nancy Pattison, 2104 Gorham, thinks the development looks like a concrete jungle. She wants to know where the ecological studies are and urges everyone to take a step back. Jerry Anderson, 435 Edgemere, very few people object to this part of the plan and spoke about parking. Nyal Deems, 701 Laurel Circle, wants everything locked in place before moving forward. Public Hearing closed at 6:53 p.m. Commissioner Schwartz asked if we could see other materials on the same façade as she wants to make sure they get it right. Commissioner Feyen is happy to see a mixture of single family and multi-family housing. Would like to see a little smoother curve in the bike lane. Commissioner Rosmarin is supportive of the development and doesn’t feel the need to see other materials and noted that they have the ability to make changes in future phases. Commissioner Michell echoes Commissioner Rosmarin’s comments. We are only charged with phase 1 now and will look at phase 2 when that comes. He likes the design and the materials. Commissioner Metz took a tour of Southfield which he said is the best place for mid-century modern. He feels the design is right on track with very good materials, great for the City, high-end materials and proud that it is in our town. He said that you will see more buildings emulating this in the future. Commissioner Schwartz likes the idea of story walk of history. Commissioner Tilma said that the narrow walking path feels like an afterthought. Commissioner Rosmarin is ready to move for a vote. Commissioner Metz is ready to move for a vote. City Manager Charles mentioned that there is not a draft development agreement and he would encourage this to come back to the Commission for a vote at a future meeting. Commissioner Michell questioned if they would not defer to the City Commission until the agreement is received. City Manager Charles stated that was correct. Commissioner Schwartz asked about the storm water going to Reeds Lake. Deputy City Manager La Fave said that pre-treatment is required and said that there is no open pipe that leads to Reeds Lake. Commissioner Feyen asked where storm water enters Reeds Lake. Deputy City Manager showed the area on a map. Commissioner Tilma confirmed that existing infrastructure would be used. Deputy City Manager La Fave stated that it would. It has been there since the early 2000’s and has a sixty-year life span. Commissioner Schwartz would like to look at the triangle park but not sure if that would be development issue or City issue. City Manager Charles said that they will have to research that. Commissioner Schwartz is still stuck on the easement and would like to know more to make a decision. City Manager Charles said that this will be brought back to the July meeting. Commissioner Michell asked if there would be another public hearing. Deputy City Manager La Fave said that statutory was met with the public hearing tonight, but we will take public comment like normal. Mike Corby was not aware of the agreement requirement. He asked for a motion on the plan tonight and the agreement at a future meeting.  Attorney Mike Roth referred to Sec. 5.48 (c) of Article 6 that states the PUD site plan shall be accompanied by the agreement and is to be reviewed by the City Attorney. This is a technical issue, but the obligation is set forth in the ordinance. He recommends that it not be separated. 7. REPORT OF THE CITY COMMISSION Commissioner Schwartz: City Commission approved Safe Routes to School project for a pathway on the south side of Reeds Lake Blvd as part of a Federal grant that will go out to bid later this month. Commissioner Michell asked if there was a traffic circle going in by the rock at Reeds Lake Blvd. Deputy City Manager La Fave said that there was, but this was part of a local project. 8.
