Public Comments
Mr. Medina, 5809 Schafer, spoke on his concerns with continual water at the front of his
property. He then referenced multiple (7) notices he has received or been given to the Public
Service Department on the subject. He noted that Mr. Sullivan with Public Service was on site
July 16th. Mr. Medina asked for additional assistance to address the ongoing issue. Council
Member Garza offered to show photos he had taken with his cell phone. Mr. Mumby
acknowledged they were aware of the situation, confirmed they have spoken about remedies
which include the costly repair to the neighborhood of installing a curb and gutter and new
culverts. This cost would be assessed to all the residents in the area effected, not just Mr.
Medina. Mr. Mumby continued by stating that another option would be to do a survey and
provide suggestions to all property owners who could then fix it at their own cost. Council
Member Spadafore asked if a resident has filled in their culvert and in turn has now caused
this issue for Mr. Medina, would be that be a violation, and Mr. Mumby confirmed culverts
cannot be filled in, but at this point it would be up to Council if they want to charge for the
removal of the dirt. He concluded by stating in this case, there is no cost effective way to help
Mr. Medina without charging him along with the 7-8 neighbors. Council Member Garza stated
his understanding was the Medina’s were looking for a long term solution. Mr. Kilpatrick
stated that would be a special assessment set by Council and could run for 7-10 years
depending on the cost. Council Member Dunbar asked if there were costs to the proposed
solutions. Mr. Mumby noted the option with storm sewer and curbs will be expensive, the
other options could be costly depending on how many parcels have to be re-ditched and
cleaned out. Mr. Kilpatrick added that they are trying to uncover the culverts and clean out to
make sure drains flow the way they are supposed to, and if this effects both sides of the street.
Once a survey is done they can make the determination. Mr. Medina admitted that when he
cleaned out his culver, the culvert pipe itself was cracked, so he turned it so the crack wouldn’t
be on the top, but now it is on the side.
Mr. Mumby stated he would keep the Committee and Mr. Medina updated.

Mr. Lamay acknowledged that this address was done while the staff were in the neighborhood
for a complaint on another property, and noticed the ice, particularly at the corner. The before
and after photos were referenced.
Ms. Elder was presented with the photos as well, and admitted she could not speak to why her
husband did not address the corner where it appeared there was still ice after they cleared the
sidewalk.

will be referencing in their defense of the work and assessment.

1600 E. Michigan Avenue
This address was not on the appeal list because the owners did not meet the requirements in
the letter with the deadline of July 8th.
Ms. Boynton appealed to the Committee that they did not get a notice, they had hired
someone to clear the snow and ice, and placed calls to the City for details however did not get
what they had asked for. Mr. Mumby reiterated the City Ordinance on snow removal and
requirement to remove within 24 hours. Council Member Spadafore clarified that the notice
she received stated the July 8, 2019 deadline and she did not meet that, therefore this
Committee could not address the complaint. He asked Public Service to forward the
materials, details and back up photos to him and he would forward to Ms. Boynton.
133 Allen
The Committee reviewed the material presented by Mr. Lamay which clarified it was noticed
March 5th, cleared March 7th and took 40-60 minutes to clear.

Council Member Spadafore asked law for a determination on the notices that were returned
undeliverable, and Mr. Venker stated that the City met their obligation because they were
mailed to the owner of record.
1117 W. Kalamazoo St. 1
Council Member Spadafore noted that after verifying that the notice is only sent to the owner,
and the owner’s notice was returned on this property because it was sent to 517 E. Grand
River Avenue not 517 E. Cesar Chavez, it would need to be addressed separately. And
therefore need to be removed from the roll.

ROLL. MOTION CARRIED 3-0.

painting, stripping and renovation of the stair wells. The week of July 22, 2019 the roof top
parking at the North Grand ramp will be closed and those parkers will be moved to other

RESOLUTION – Introduction and Set Public Hearing; Ordinance to amend the Lansing
Codified Ordinances by Amending Chapter 606, Section 606.03 to require signs or
advertisements on sales and auctions to include contact information
Council Member Spadafore explained to the Committee that currently there is no requirement
for an address on a sign advertising sales or auctions noting the location of the sale. To
address will be required so not to have it stay in the right of way indefinitely. This will require
the address of the sale and contact information of the person conducting the sale. Council
Member Spadafore confirmed he also spoke to Economic Development & Planning and they
do not have an issue with the change. Council Member Dunbar asked how the change would
address farm market signs that are put up weekly with directional arrows. Council Member

information. These amendments will address signs being left indefinitely on the streets.

Right of Way; 600 E. Michigan Lansing LLC
Mr. Kildea clarified that their request is for an easement to extend approximately 2’ into the

columns themselves will encroach under the sidewalk, however the building itself will not
encroach. Mr. Kilpatrick confirmed it would not affect any City utilities because there are
currently none there. Mr. Kildea also confirmed that in his communications with AT&T they
have nothing near the project area.
The resolution was amended in the 3rd paragraph to state “approximately 24” 2’ into the
Michigan Avenue right of way at a depth of between 2’ and 6’ 9’; and”
