Ms. Lora Fell – Planning Director
City of Taylor

Taylor, MI 48180
RE: Request to Amend the Official Zoning Map of the City of Taylor;
21111 Van Born Road; from B-2 to I-1
Dear Ms. Fell, Planning Commissioners and City Council members:
The Applicant and property owner, CORE BKG Van Born LLC (“Applicant”), respectfully requests an
Amendment to the official Zoning Map of the City of Taylor of the property located at 21111 Van Born
Rd. (“property”), from the underlying B-2 Regional Business classification to I-1 Light Industrial. The
property is currently conditionally zoned I-1, but only for as long as Ford Motor Company (“Ford”) (or
an affiliate or subsidiary of Ford Motor Company) is the holder of a current lease and/or owner of the
property. If at any time Ford Motor Company (or its subsidiary) is no longer a tenant at the property,
the zoning would revert back to B-2 (Regional Business).
Please see Exhibit 1 for the ALTA survey and legal description of the property requested to be rezoned.
Parcels 2 and 3 on this ALTA Survey are the parcels to be rezoned. Parcel 1 is 21001 Van Born, which
has an underlaying I-1 zoning classification.
To allow for viable marketing, use, and continued occupancy of the property when Ford vacates, the
Applicant desires to permanently rezone the property to allow for light industrial use by-right under
I-1. Reverting back to a B-2 zoning would not be marketable or economically feasible for use of the
property, since there is an abundance of vacant and underutilized property in the immediate area
that is already zoned and used for business/commercial purposes.
It should be noted that the property immediately east of the subject property, 21001 Van Born
property, formerly the Masco HQ, also has a zoning classification of I-1. Rezoning the subject
property to I-1 would re-affirm the current conditional industrial zoning and use, as well as create a
consistent zoning classification for the entire block bounded by Van Born to the north, I-94 to the
south, Clippert to the west and Merrick to the east. Further, there is market demand for light
industrial uses, and with the abutting I-94 expressway to the south, industrial zoning to the east, and
frontage on Van Born Road, the property is ideally situated for such uses.
57
21111 Van Born Rezoning Request Narrative
Page 2
Please see attached current Zoning Map as Exhibit 2, showing the underlying zoning classifications
noted above. This map was downloaded from the City of Taylor website on 6-12-25.
Current Plans for the Property
When Ford vacates, the Applicant would like to continue to lease the property to light industrial
tenants that meet the I-1 zoning requirements (presuming its I-1 rezoning request is approved), or
build a light industrial building for an end user that would bring many new jobs and tax revenue to the
city. The Conceptual Plan attached as Exhibit 4 showing a new industrial building is provided to meet
the Rezoning Application Requirements, specifically 27.02 (b) (1) (g), and as a proposed use.
Applicant, who has significant knowledge of the real estate market and trends, along with years of
developing, owning and constructing industrial buildings throughout Michigan, is very confident that
the property is an ideal site for such uses. Reverting the property back to a B-2 zoning is not
marketable or economically viable, and the property would sit vacant, instead of being utilized to
create new jobs and tax revenue.
Per Section 27.04.(a) – Criteria for amendment of the zoning map; the Applicant offers the following:
Consistency with Master Plan
The Future Land Use plan, attached as Exhibit 5, shows industrial use directly south of the
property in question, Trolley Industrial south of I-94, which has very similar access and
locational attributes to the Van Born property. The Applicant strongly disagrees that
commercial use as shown on the Future Land Use plan is marketable or viable, demonstrated
by the vacation of the property by Kmart as well a significant number of vacant or
underutilized retail buildings in the vicinity on Van Born Rd.
Capability of the site to support the development
The site was fully built-out as a large format retail building and is fully served by all necessary
municipal utilities. Any future redevelopment in keeping with the proposed Conceptual Plan
would have a similar or lesser impervious surface area, create less vehicular traffic, and less
ingress/egress to the property, when compared to traffic patterns to the site if it is used for a
larger retail development.
As noted on the Zoning Map, the property is within the “AE” floodplain boundary. The current
building finish floor elevation is above this floodplain elevation, and any building(s)
constructed as part of a redevelopment of the site would have a finish floor elevation a
minimum of 12” above this flood elevation. If the site is redeveloped, all appropriate permits
would be sought, including permits from EGLE for work in this AE floodplain.
Per the requirements of Section 27.02 (b) (1) (f), attached as Exhibit 3 is the Site Analysis. Per
the requirements of Section 27.02 (b) (1) (g), attached as Exhibit 4 is the Conceptual
58
21111 Van Born Rezoning Request Narrative
Page 3
Development plan showing how the site could be redeveloped with a 192,500 SF light-
industrial building; a use that would be marketable, economically feasible, a less intense use
than a larger commercial center, and in demand in today’s market.
Practicality and Reasonableness of B-2 Zoning.
The fact that Kmart vacated the property and it sat vacant until Masco acquired it,
subsequently leasing it to Ford for industrial use, speaks to the evolution of the retail
landscape. The Applicant has actively marketed the property for lease and sale well over 2
years, for business/retail uses, and to date there has been no interest from any retailer, nor is
any expected in the foreseeable future.
Regionally, the Eastland Mall was razed and redeveloped into an industrial park. The Summit
Place Mall in Waterford was also razed and planned to be redeveloped as an industrial park.
Both of these sites are objectively better located to attract retail uses than the 21001 Van
Born site, yet were converted to industrial use.
With companies like Amazon (and similar), and the huge diversion to online shopping for
consumer goods and items during Covid, which has continued thereafter and has become
more dominant; the large-scale retail centers and big box uses are a thing of the past. Light
industrial use for the property will alleviate additional vacant retail buildings in the City, as
use or redevelopment of the property into another form of retail development is not viable.
Compatibility of Potential Industrial Use
The original use of the property as a Kmart was a much more intensive use of the site as it
relates to traffic volume, pedestrian traffic, noise and other impacts on surrounding
properties. Most retail operators are open for business seven days a week with many retailers
operating from 8:00 am until as late as 10:00 pm, and with many vehicular, pedestrian, and
delivery truck trips in and out of the commercial center. Alternatively, most industrial users
are open Monday-Friday with minimal operations after 5:00 pm or on weekends. Also, ingress
and egress to the site is less frequent once employees are on site, and the retail center
“shopper” type traffic is eliminated. There will be truck deliveries typical for industrial uses,
but those can be scheduled and coordinated to avoid any traffic or safety issues.
The current facility has no truck docks or other access points on the west side facing towards
Clippert Street. So, the current impact by the conditional use as industrial is minimal. Any
future redevelopment also would not have truck docks or overhead doors facing west
towards Clippert Street. The west side would be employee parking and office uses, with a
significant buffer and screening for the residential to the west, including a minimum 45’ wide
greenbelt with a 4’ high berm (already installed as part of conditional rezoning), and a 75’
building setback would be met.
59
21111 Van Born Rezoning Request Narrative

Site Access
Current and proposed access to the site is solely through driveway aligned with the
intersection of Campbell St. This intersection has a traffic signal with a dedicated
center turn lane. Fire access would be the only access point from Clippert St.
Traffic Impacts
Comparing the underlying zoning of B-2 using the existing 140,420 SF property for trip
generation vs. a conceptual plan showing the maximum build out of a 192,500 SF
industrial building, confirms the industrial use will generate significantly less traffic.
Please see the Fishbeck trip generation comparison report dated June 20, 2025,
attached as Exhibit 6.
The results of the trip generation comparison revealed the proposed warehousing
development would generate 214 fewer total driveway trips during the a.m. peak hour
(110 fewer inbound, 104 fewer outbound), 558 fewer total driveway trips during the
p.m. peak hour (284 fewer inbound, 274 fewer outbound), and 6,752 fewer total
driveway trips during a typical weekday compared to the former Super K-Mart Store.
The differential in new trips revealed the proposed warehousing would generate 214
fewer driveway trips during the a.m. peak hour (110 fewer inbound, 104 fewer
outbound), and 382 fewer new trips during the p.m. peak hour (198 fewer
inbound,184 fewer outbound) when compared to the former Super K-Mart Store.
In summary, the current facility continuing use as industrial or any future redevelopment for
industrial use will have significantly less trip generation and traffic impact than the typical B-
2zoning uses would generate.
Infrastructure Capacity
The property is fully-served by all necessary municipal utilities, which are adequate for the
current facility and any proposed industrial building of similar or even greater size. Any
redevelopment for industrial would have a similar, or most likely less, demand on
infrastructure than a commercial center would require.
Consistency with Market Demand
The I-94 corridor from I-275 to Detroit has seen significant investment and job creation,
almost entirely as industrial uses. An example is the Ashley Capital “Metro 94 Commerce
Center” industrial development within the City of Taylor, currently under construction.
Proper adoption of the Taylor-Dearborn Heights Gateway Overlay District (TDHG)
Applicant is aware the City of Taylor asserts the TDHG Overlay District (“TDHG”) is effective and now
controls the land use of the subject property. However, Applicant strongly disagrees with this
assertion. A review of city records indicates that the meeting notice that was published to announce
60
21111 Van Born Rezoning Request Narrative
Page 5
the April 5, 2023 meeting for the TDHG states that it will be a public hearing. However, a review of the
minutes from the April 5, 2023 meeting make no mention of a public hearing (required by law) actually
taking place to approve/adopt the TDHG. In addition, Applicant has issue with the TDHG for reasons,
including, but not limited to the following.
Zoning Map
The City of Taylor official zoning map, attached, does not show the TDHG overlay district. Per
the TDHG ordinance language, Section 12.02 Scope and Applicability:
“(a) Scope. The requirements of this chapter shall apply to all lands that are designated within
the TDHG Gateway district as shown on the City of Taylor Zoning Map.”.
As the City of Taylor official Zoning Map, attached, does not show any lands with this overlay
district in place, the Applicant’s position is that this overlay district does not govern the
subject Property. If the TDHG overlay was in fact legally adopted, it should be reflected in the
City of Taylor Zoning Map, for which the city has had ample time to update.
December 2021 Proposed Gateway Overlay District graphic
The “Proposed” Gateway Overlay District graphic attached as Exhibit 7 pre-dates the alleged
adoption of the TDHG district by 18 months. There is no contemporaneous, “final” map of
the TDHG in existence to the knowledge of the Applicant, and certainly not on the City of
Taylor official Zoning Map.
Engagement of the Applicant by the City during the TDHG planning process
Applicant is the owner of the largest building in the proposed TDHG district (the former Masco
headquarters building at +/- 416,000 SF as well as the contiguous former Kmart property at
140,420 SF) which total 30.72 acres. It would make sense to engage the Applicant in
discussions for the TDHG overlay, which if it was in fact properly and legally adopted, would
effectively result in a “rezoning” of Applicant’s properties to negate the I-1 zoning and prevent
light industrial uses on the property. This action by the city would result in an unconstitutional
taking of property for which compensation must be paid, including violation of Applicant’s
rights to procedural and substantive due process, and other applicable constitutional rights.
The TDHG overlay would render the property unmarketable, and economically not viable if
restricted to the uses in the TDHG district.
The Applicant was only made aware that this TDHG district was created (with no specific area
burdened by this zoning district on the Zoning Map) after at least two in-person meetings with
City officials to discuss marketing and future plans of the property and the Masco building.
Again, the Applicant disagrees that the TDHG district was properly adopted, as there are no
city council minutes reflecting a public hearing and approval of the TDHG, and the
accompanying City Zoning Map shows no areas within this TDHG overlay district.

SUBJECT: Trip Generation Comparison for 21111 Van Born Road – Taylor, MI
TO: Conrad Schewe – CORE BKG Van Born LLC
FROM: Jeffery Morden, PE, PTOE
DATE: June 20, 2025 PROJECT NO.: 2501025
Introduction
On behalf of CORE BKG Van Born LLC, Fishbeck has completed a trip generation comparison for the proposed
warehousing development that will be located at 21111 Van Born Road, which is between Monroe Street and
Pelham Road on Van Born Road in the City of Taylor (City), Wayne County, Michigan. The site was originally
occupied by a 140,420 square foot (sf) Super K-Mart Store that will be demolished. The site is currently occupied
by Ford Motor Company for vehicle storage. The proposed development will consist of 192,500 sf of
warehousing. The proposed warehousing development will maintain the existing driveway location on Van Born
Road. Access on Van Born Road is currently signalized. The project location is displayed in Figure 1.

Using the information and methodologies specified in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip
Generation Manual, 11th Edition, Fishbeck forecast the weekday morning (7 a.m. to 9 a.m.) peak hour, afternoon
(4 p.m. to 6 p.m.) peak hour, and weekday trips associated with the former Super K-Mart Store and the proposed
warehousing development.

Technical Memo – Trip Generation Comparison for 21111 Van Born Road
June 20, 2025 Fishbeck | Page 3
A portion of the site-generated trips from the Super K-Mart Store are anticipated to be “pass-by” in nature,
meaning they already exist on the adjacent road network and temporarily divert to visit the site. According to ITE
methodology, new trips are assumed to return to their direction of origin whereas pass-by trips continue in their
original direction of travel. The ITE Trip Generation Manual was used to calculate what percentage of the trips
would be pass-by trips, meaning they are vehicles already on the network that would access the development and
are not additional trips added to the network.
Table 1 presents the resulting trip generation comparison of the existing development and the proposed
development. The proposed warehousing trip generation is broken down by trucks and passenger vehicles.
Additional information related to the trip generation forecast is attached to this memo.

Free-Standing Discount Superstore
Description
A discount superstore is similar to a free-standing discount store described in Land Use 815 with
the exception that it also contains a full-service grocery department under the same roof that
shares entrances and exits with the discount store area. These stores usually offer a variety of
customer services, centralized cashiering, and a wide range of products. They typically maintain
long store hours 7 days a week. The stores included in this land use are often the only ones on
the site, but they can also be found in mutual operation with a related or unrelated garden center
or service station, or as a part of a shopping center, with or without their own dedicated parking
area. Freestanding discount store (Land Use 815) is a related use.
Additional Data
A garden center contained within the principal outside faces of the exterior building walls is
included in the reported gross floor area. An outdoor or fenced-in area outside the principal faces
of the exterior walls is excluded. Several sites included in this land use indicate the presence of
fenced/covered space.
A Texas Transportation Institute study titled “Nationwide Discount Supercenter Study” published in
2008 provides information on trip generation rates for what the study defines as “typical” and “peak”
seasons. The peak season is defined as the period between the week after Thanksgiving and the
week prior to Christmas. The typical season is defined as September through mid-November when
sales transactions are close to the annual average. The following are their key findings:
• Weekday trip generation rates are similar in both seasons
• Saturday trip generation rates are 13 to 20 percent higher during the peak season than the
typical season
• Sunday trip generation rates are 6 to 10 percent higher during the peak season
The weighted average truck trip generation rates from approximately 30 sites surveyed for this
land use are summarized in the table below. The average gross floor area of these facilities is
206,000 square feet.

To assist in the future analysis of this land use, it is important to collect and include information
on the presence and size of garden centers, outdoor fenced-in space, and service stations in trip
generation data submissions.
The technical appendices provide supporting information on time-of-day distributions for this
land use. The appendices can be accessed through either the ITETripGen web app or the trip
generation resource page on the ITE website (https://www.ite.org/technical-resources/topics/trip-
and-parking-generation/).
The sites were surveyed in the 1990s, the 2000s, and the 2010s in Alabama, Arkansas,
California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

Warehousing
Description
A warehouse is primarily devoted to the storage of materials, but it may also include office and
maintenance areas. High-cube transload and short-term storage warehouse (Land Use 154), high-
cube fulfillment center warehouse (Land Use 155), high-cube parcel hub warehouse (Land Use
156), and high-cube cold storage warehouse (Land Use 157) are related uses.
Additional Data
The technical appendices provide supporting information on time-of-day distributions for this
land use. The appendices can be accessed through either the ITETripGen web app or the trip
generation resource page on the ITE website (https://www.ite.org/technical-resources/topics/trip-
and-parking-generation/).
The sites were surveyed in the 1980s, the 1990s, the 2000s, and the 2010s in California,
Connecticut, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Texas.

Technical Memo
SUBJECT: Trip Generation Comparison for 21111 Van Born Road – Taylor, MI
TO: Conrad Schewe – CORE BKG Van Born LLC
FROM: Jeffery Morden, PE, PTOE
DATE: June 20, 2025 PROJECT NO.: 2501025
Introduction
On behalf of CORE BKG Van Born LLC, Fishbeck has completed a trip generation comparison for the proposed
warehousing development that will be located at 21111 Van Born Road, which is between Monroe Street and
Pelham Road on Van Born Road in the City of Taylor (City), Wayne County, Michigan. The site was originally
occupied by a 140,420 square foot (sf) Super K-Mart Store that will be demolished. The site is currently occupied
by Ford Motor Company for vehicle storage. The proposed development will consist of 192,500 sf of
warehousing. The proposed warehousing development will maintain the existing driveway location on Van Born
Road. Access on Van Born Road is currently signalized. The project location is displayed in Figure 1.

Trip Generation
Using the information and methodologies specified in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip
Generation Manual, 11th Edition, Fishbeck forecast the weekday morning (7 a.m. to 9 a.m.) peak hour, afternoon
(4 p.m. to 6 p.m.) peak hour, and weekday trips associated with the former Super K-Mart Store and the proposed
warehousing development.

Technical Memo – Trip Generation Comparison for 21111 Van Born Road
June 20, 2025 Fishbeck | Page 3
A portion of the site-generated trips from the Super K-Mart Store are anticipated to be “pass-by” in nature,
meaning they already exist on the adjacent road network and temporarily divert to visit the site. According to ITE
methodology, new trips are assumed to return to their direction of origin whereas pass-by trips continue in their
original direction of travel. The ITE Trip Generation Manual was used to calculate what percentage of the trips
would be pass-by trips, meaning they are vehicles already on the network that would access the development and
are not additional trips added to the network.
Table 1 presents the resulting trip generation comparison of the existing development and the proposed
development. The proposed warehousing trip generation is broken down by trucks and passenger vehicles.
Additional information related to the trip generation forecast is attached to this memo.

The results of the trip generation comparison revealed the proposed warehousing development would generate
214 fewer total driveway trips during the a.m. peak hour (110 fewer inbound, 104 fewer outbound), 558 fewer
total driveway trips during the p.m. peak hour (284 fewer inbound, 274 fewer outbound), and 6,752 fewer total
driveway trips during a typical weekday compared to the former Super K-Mart Store. The differential in new trips
revealed the proposed warehousing would generate 214 fewer driveway trips during the a.m. peak hour (110
fewer inbound, 104 fewer outbound), and 382 fewer new trips during the p.m. peak hour (198 fewer inbound,
184 fewer outbound) when compared to the former Super K-Mart Store.

Free-Standing Discount Superstore
Description
A discount superstore is similar to a free-standing discount store described in Land Use 815 with
the exception that it also contains a full-service grocery department under the same roof that
shares entrances and exits with the discount store area. These stores usually offer a variety of
customer services, centralized cashiering, and a wide range of products. They typically maintain
long store hours 7 days a week. The stores included in this land use are often the only ones on
the site, but they can also be found in mutual operation with a related or unrelated garden center
or service station, or as a part of a shopping center, with or without their own dedicated parking
area. Freestanding discount store (Land Use 815) is a related use.
Additional Data
A garden center contained within the principal outside faces of the exterior building walls is
included in the reported gross floor area. An outdoor or fenced-in area outside the principal faces
of the exterior walls is excluded. Several sites included in this land use indicate the presence of
fenced/covered space.
A Texas Transportation Institute study titled “Nationwide Discount Supercenter Study” published in
2008 provides information on trip generation rates for what the study defines as “typical” and “peak”
seasons. The peak season is defined as the period between the week after Thanksgiving and the
week prior to Christmas. The typical season is defined as September through mid-November when
sales transactions are close to the annual average. The following are their key findings:
• Weekday trip generation rates are similar in both seasons
• Saturday trip generation rates are 13 to 20 percent higher during the peak season than the
typical season
• Sunday trip generation rates are 6 to 10 percent higher during the peak season
The weighted average truck trip generation rates from approximately 30 sites surveyed for this
land use are summarized in the table below. The average gross floor area of these facilities is
206,000 square feet.

To assist in the future analysis of this land use, it is important to collect and include information
on the presence and size of garden centers, outdoor fenced-in space, and service stations in trip
generation data submissions.
The technical appendices provide supporting information on time-of-day distributions for this
land use. The appendices can be accessed through either the ITETripGen web app or the trip
generation resource page on the ITE website (https://www.ite.org/technical-resources/topics/trip-
and-parking-generation/).
The sites were surveyed in the 1990s, the 2000s, and the 2010s in Alabama, Arkansas,
California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

uses: automobile filling station with convenience store and drive thru restaurant. Proposed
construction: 6,139 sq. ft. building.
Alexander Siwicki, representative from Sheetz, explained that the sites were being leased for
the projects and due to litigation issues with the property owner at the Telegraph site, the project
had been delayed. He stated that the Eureka site incurred delays from Wayne County and
EGLE. They were now ready to start construction of both projects, hoping to have more than
25% completion by October, but they are requesting these extensions so their approvals would
still be valid if they do not, and they can continue construction. Their start date is currently
9/1/25. Both projects will commence construction at the same time. They plan to open in Spring
2026.
Motion by Welton Supported by Johnson

Memo
To: Planning Commission
From: Kaitlyn Hines, Deputy Planning Director
Date: 7/29/2025
Re: Case #25-21 (ZTA) – Automobile Filling Stations
The City of Taylor has initiated a Zoning Text Amendment to update the Land Use
requirements for Section 13.05 – Motor Vehicle Uses of the zoning ordinance. The
amendment focuses on regulatory updates for Automobile Filling Stations, including
standards related to site design, lot size, separation requirements, transparency, prohibited
uses, and architectural compatibility.
1. Traffic and Site Access
Traffic Impact Study Required: All new or expanded stations must submit a Traffic
Impact Study, per Section 19.10.
Major Street Access: Sites must have direct access to a major street, as defined in
Section 28.11(q).
2. Dimensional Requirements
Minimum Lot Area: One (1) acre.
Minimum Lot Width: 150 feet.
3. Separation Between Stations
Stations must be located a minimum of 750 feet from any other existing or proposed
station, measured lot line to lot line in a straight line.
Exemption: Fueling stations accessory to large retail centers (≥ 100,000 sq. ft.) are
exempt.
4. Canopy and Pump Placement
Canopy Setback: Minimum 15 feet from the public right-of-way.
Page 1
127
Canopy Height: Maximum 14 feet from drive surface to canopy underside.
Pump Setback: Gasoline pumps must be set back at least 25 feet from all lot lines
and may not block public sidewalks or landscaped areas.
5. Architectural and Design Standards
Canopy Design: Must be architecturally compatible with the primary building:
o Columns clad in brick or stone.
o Fire protection devices must be screened.
o Signage on canopy to be reviewed by the Planning Commission and counted
toward allowable wall signage.
o Internally lit canopies and canopy price signs are prohibited.
o Canopy lighting must be recessed and not visible off-site.
Building Transparency:
o 60% minimum transparency on street-facing and canopy-facing facades.
o False windows and spandrel glass do not count toward transparency.
6. Land Use Restrictions
The following uses are prohibited on filling station sites:
o Motor vehicle maintenance and repair (major or minor),
o New or used auto sales,
o Truck, trailer, or vehicle storage,
o Equipment rental.
7. Infrastructure and Utilities
Underground Storage Tanks & Appurtenances:
o Setback at least 20 feet from public ROW.
o Located 150 feet or more from any residential zoning or use.
Utility Cabinets/Transformers:
o Must be underground or located at the rear of the site and screened.

o Subject to same screening and placement requirements.
Planning Department Page 2 7/29/25
128
8. Accessory Uses and Retail Activity
Accessory Uses (e.g., restaurants) must comply with the requirements for those
respective uses.
Retail Sales (except fuel, ice, propane) must occur entirely indoors.
Outdoor display, storage, and sales are prohibited.
Propane must be located in the rear yard, at least 15 feet from building entrances,
and protected with bollards.
PLANNING RATIONALE
This amendment aligns with the goals of promoting orderly development, minimizing land use
conflicts, and improving visual and functional compatibility of gas stations with surrounding
properties. Specific improvements include:
Enhanced urban design through architectural standards and transparency
requirements;
Improved public safety by regulating access, pump placement, and equipment
screening;
Reduced visual clutter by limiting canopy signage and outdoor sales/display;
RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission should recommend approval to the City Council for the proposed
text amendment. The amendment reflects modern best practices and addresses growing
concerns related to aesthetics, traffic, land use compatibility, and safety.

is designed and tested in accordance with the installation and sizing requirements of the
Michigan Plumbing Code as adopted by the Municipality. Water closets, urinals and other
plumbing fixtures conveying human waste shall not drain into or through the grease
interceptor. Food disposal units or dishwashers shall not drain into or through the grease
3
143
interceptor unless it is specifically permitted, in writing, by the FOG Control Program
Manager. A foods solids interceptor shall be routed through a grease interceptor (See diagrams
A & B).
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Para. 3 or 4 below, new FSEs shall be equipped with
an exterior gravity grease interceptor that is designed and tested in accordance with the
requirements of the Michigan Plumbing Code prior to commencement of any
discharge. Any permitted construction shall be deemed compliant upon issuance of a
certificate of occupancy for such construction by the City Building Official, City
Engineer, or designee.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in Para. 3 or 4 below, existing FSEs that are not equipped
with a grease interceptor or that are equipped with a grease interceptor that does not
comply with the most recent edition of the Michigan Plumbing Code, shall install a
compliant grease interceptor on a date deemed appropriate by the FOG Control
Program Manager when any of the following applies:
(1) An expansion, renovation or modification is constructed that requires that a
building or plumbing permit be issued. The grease interceptor shall be installed
prior to requesting the final inspection and will be a condition of permit
approval.
(2) The FSE sewage discharge necessitates increased maintenance on the
wastewater disposal system in order to minimize the number of blockages
occurring and/or to minimize interferences with the normal operation of pumps
and other equipment, as determined by the FOG Control Program Manager; or
(3) A FSE that is not adequately retaining FOG. This occurs when quantities above
FOG discharge limits of 150 mg/L are found, according to Standard Methods
for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, Oil and Grease, method 5520.
(c) Existing Facilities. Existing FSEs and FM/Ps shall submit a FOG management plan
within 24months of the date the ordinance codified in this chapter becomes effective.
(d) Any FSE that wishes to be exempt from an exterior grease interceptor installation or
maintenance requirement shall file for an exemption from FOG Control Program
Manager who has the authority to approve the exemption if:
(1) Only catered meals are distributed and consumed and all dishes, pans, utensils,
etc. are removed and cleaned at an approved facility with properly operating
and sized grease interceptors; or
(2) Only pre-packaged foods are served and no oil, grease, or other products
containing grease are washed down sinks or drains.
4
144
(e) If an FSE demonstrates to the satisfaction of the FOG Control Program Manager that
installation of an exterior gravity grease interceptor is not feasible, the FOG Control
Program Manager may grant an exception allowing such owner to install hydro-
mechanical grease traps, or other alternative treatment technology which will, in the
FOG Control Program Manager's discretion, adequately control the release of FOG
from the FSE or the structure into the wastewater system. The FSE bears the burden of
demonstrating that the installation of an exterior gravity grease interceptor is not
feasible. GGGI tank can be placed below first floor grade, in a separate storage room
away from any food prep areas.
(1) The request for an exemption shall include the following information, if
relevant:
i. Evidence of a lack of available exterior space necessary to place an
interceptor relative to the location of sewer main and easement.
ii. Evidence of a lack of adequate slope for gravity flow between kitchen
plumbing fixtures in the FSE and the wastewater facilities.
iii. Description and specifications of the alternative grease control
equipment that will be installed.
(2) Hydro-mechanical and alternative treatment technologies shall remove FOG to
the extent that the waste discharge does not exceed the maximum allowed
concentration of 100 mg/L. FSE shall make any modifications required to
achieve the FOG discharge requirements even if an exemption was granted.
(f) An FSE or FM/P with a grease interceptor shall notify the City of Taylor Building
Department, Building Official, or City Engineer 45 days in advance and receive
confirmation of delivery whenever the FSE or FM/P closes for business and is
subsequently:
(1) Razed or demolished;
(2) Remodeled such that the grease interceptor will not be used; or
(3) Replaced with a type of business that will not utilize the grease interceptor.
The reason for this notification is to delete the FOG control device from the City’s inventory
database.
(g) A facility that closes for business shall properly demolish, abandon, or remove their
grease interceptor so as to prevent a safety hazard, unless the grease interceptor will be
used by a new property owner or occupant.
5
145
(h) Product Submittal Package Review
The designer (or project engineer of record) plans and submittal package shall be submitted,
reviewed, and approved by the plan reviewing plumbing inspector prior to purchasing the
grease interceptor tank. The City of Taylor bears zero responsibility if a grease interceptor tank
is purchased without prior approval from the City of Taylor.
Design/ submittal package shall provide design information per this ordinance as follows:
(a) Design sizing calculations
(b) Structural calculations
(c) Water tightness testing information
(d) Chemical Resistance information (minimum pH 1.5-3)
(e) Vendor installation instructions
(f) Vendor FOG removal efficiency (>90% TSS FOG removal efficiency)
The submittal package shall be prepared and sealed by a current licensed professional engineer
in the State of Michigan.

establishment unless otherwise approved by the FOG Control Program Manager and
Plumbing Inspector.
(f) Plumbing shall be such that dishwasher discharge shall not be directed into or pass
through the grease interceptor, unless a properly sized GGGI tank is used (See
Appendix A – Method 3). Hydromechanical GI tanks have experienced FOG
resuspension due to high water temps (Hot Flushing) and are not recommended.
(g) Any wastewater discharged with temperatures more than 140° F shall not be directed
into or passed through the grease interceptor, unless a properly sized GGGI tank is used
(See Appendix A – Method 3).
Sec. 50-181 GREASE INTERCEPTOR INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
The following maintenance and cleaning practices shall be implemented by all FSEs:
(a) Exterior gravity grease interceptors shall be pumped /cleaned out a minimum of once
every 90 days, or more frequently if the unit has accumulated waste, both floatable and
settleable accounting for 25% of its wetted depth, as measured from the static water
level to the interior tank bottom.
7
147
(1) Grease interceptor cleaning verification shall be submitted to the FOG Control
Program Manager within 14 days after the interceptor is cleaned. Grease
interceptor maintenance and cleaning activities shall be recorded on a log that
shall be kept on file for a period of three years and be available to the FOG
Control Program Manager, plumbing inspector, or health dept. inspector during
inspections. The log shall include date, time, volume of waste removed, pH of
wastewater, disposal site and signature.
(2) The FOG Control Program Manager shall establish a procedure for submitting
this information.
(3) If a grease hauler is hired to pump out the grease interceptor, a copy of the
hauler’s receipts shall be submitted to the FOG Control Program Manager.
(4) Decanting or discharging of removed waste liquid back into the interceptor
from which the waste was removed, for the purpose of reducing the volume to
be disposed of is strictly prohibited.
(5) Goal at pump out cycle of 90 days: pH > 3, effluent concentration < 150 mg/L,
volume of FOG/grit < 25% of total volume. If goals are not met, FOG Control
Program Manager can require more frequent pump outs until the desired goals
are met (1-90 days).
(b) Interior grease traps and hydro-mechanical grease traps shall be pumped/cleaned out
completely a minimum of once every 30 days, or more frequently if the unit has
accumulated waste, both floatable and settleable accounting for 25% of its wetted
depth, as measured from the static water level to the interior tank bottom.
(1) Grease trap cleaning verification shall be submitted to the FOG Control
Program Manager within 14 days after the interceptor is cleaned. Grease trap
maintenance and cleaning activities shall be recorded on a log that shall be kept
on file for a period of three years and be available to the FOG Control Program
Manager, plumbing inspector, or health dept. inspector during inspections. The
log shall include date, time, volume of waste removed, pH of wastewater,
disposal site and signature.
(2) The FOG Control Program Manager shall establish a procedure for submitting
this information.
(3) If a grease hauler is hired to pump out the grease trap, a copy of the hauler’s
receipts shall be submitted to the FOG Control Program Manager.
8
148
(4) Decanting or discharging of removed waste liquid back into the grease trap
from which the waste was removed, for the purpose of reducing the volume to
be disposed of is strictly prohibited.
(5) Goal at pump out cycle of 30 days: pH > 3, effluent concentration < 100 mg/L,
volume of FOG/grit < 25% of total volume. If goals are not met, FOG Control
Program Manager can require more frequent pump outs until the desired goals
are met (1-30 days).
(c) Any person or entity who cleans a grease interceptor (shall be licensed and certified in
the State of Michigan for the activity) shall do so in accordance with the following
procedures and requirements.
(1) Measure and record the depths of solids on the bottom and FOG on the top of
the grease interceptor on a cleaning log or report. Also record the total percent
of FOG and solids compared to the design liquid depth. Measure the pH of the
wastewater in both compartments of the interceptor. Determine average pH
level. These cleaning logs (records) shall be maintained for three years. Copies
shall be submitted to the FSE and FOG Control Program Manager, plumbing
inspector, or health dept. inspector.
(2) Completely empty and remove the contents (liquids and solids) of all vaults of
the grease interceptor and remove the grease mat and scrapings from the interior
walls. Use pressure washing and vacuum trucks to clean grease interceptor
tanks. Avoid scraping walls of tanks with steel scrapers. Use a stiff nylon
bristle brush only as steel scrapers can damage fiberglass tanks and
steel/concrete tanks with a polymer coating, causing delamination of the
protective coating.

into the grease interceptor from which the waste or wastewater was removed or
into any other grease interceptor, for the purpose of reducing the volume of
waste and wastewater to be disposed of.
(5) The grease interceptor shall be refilled with fresh water to the outlet pipe invert
(decanting is not allowed). This shall be done prior to start-up in order to avoid
surcharging the sanitary sewer line with FOG. Refilling to the outlet pipe invert
is essential for the GI tank to function and perform at its maximum removal
efficiency.
9
149
(6) Do not introduce enzymes, emulsifying chemicals, hot water or other agents
into a grease interceptor to dissolve or emulsify grease or as a grease abatement
method. Introduction of bacteria as a grease degradation agent is permitted only
with prior written approval by the FOG Control Program Manager.

without prior written approval of the FOG Control Program Manager. If the use
of an automatic grease removal system is approved, the user shall operate the
same in a manner that the grease wastewater discharge limit, as measured from
the system's outlet, is consistently achieved.
(8) Verify that the grease interceptor or trap is good operating condition by
checking the following:
(9) Check that the sanitary "tees" on the inlet (if applicable) and outlet sides of the
grease interceptor are not obstructed, loose, or missing.
(i) ii. Verify that the baffle is secure and in place. Inspect the grease
interceptor for any cracks or other defects. Check that lids are securely
and properly seated after completion of cleaning.
(ii) For hydro-mechanical units -check that the flow restrictor is secure.
(d) The FOG Control Program Manager may also implement additional maintenance and
cleaning verification procedures.

Method 2) (Appendix A – Method 3)
Apply the 25% rule to the larger of the two tank designs – see example calculations in
APPENDIX A.
3 -VESSEL WATER TIGHTNESS PERFORMANCE
Using IAPMO/ANSI Z1001 check performance for a completely assembled tank (multiple
pieces), including inlet/outlet pipe stubs and access riser. Completely assemble the tank at the
manufacturing facility if not a monolithic unit (one-piece). If fully assembled at the
manufacturer’s facility as a monolithic unit, then in both cases testing can be performed at the
manufacturing facility and test certification papers shall be included in the submittal package.
Please note for a grease interceptor that is not a monolithic unit (that cannot be tested at
manufacturing facility prior to shipping) IAPMO/ANSI Z1001 requires assembly at the jobsite,
then perform the water tightness test. This will be required for all non-monolithic grease
interceptor tanks (non-one-piece structures/units) that will be used in the municipality. For
purposes of compliance with this standard, each manufacturer is allowed to assemble and test
their units at their facility. All non-monolithic (non-one-piece) units that will be shipped and
assembled at the jobsite will need to perform a water tightness test on site for the plumbing
inspector prior to backfilling the grease interceptor tank. This requirement applies for all
grease interceptor installations after their product receives municipal approval. The design
engineer is to provide the plumbing inspector with the approved watertightness testing report.
Testing Requirements and Performance Criteria:

perform in a pH range of 1.5-3 for a 90-day pump out cycle. Tested concentrations in the failed
tanks showed sulfuric acid in the 10-30% range and hydrogen sulfide > 10%. If a manufacturer
cannot meet this requirement of pH 1.5-6 in a 90 day pump out cycle, then they shall show
recommended or reduced cleanout pump schedule. Provide calculations to justify the
recommended days to pump. (PI to review or have calculations and data approved by an
engineer of the PI’s choice)
All manufacturers that apply coatings to their products for chemical resistance, corrosion
resistance and vessel water tightness resistance shall show proof that the bond of the coating
to the unit (tank) meets the manufacturer’s bonding requirements (provide what type of bond
adherence testing is performed on the coating to provide a quality manufactured product
ASTM D4541 & ASTM D7234) as to prevent delamination (separation) of the coating from
the tank surface (inside and outside) especially when subjected to vehicular HS-25 loading or
injurious cracking/penetration of coating during the installation and maintenance process. In
some cases, the manufacturer may recommend special backfill materials to protect the outside
17
157
coating on the tank. For example, you see Xerxes use a pea stone backfill for their fiberglass
fuel tanks used in gas station projects. GI manufacturers shall be responsible for the complete
GI tank and required coating.
5 -VENDOR FOG REMOVAL EFFICIENCY PERFORMANCE
A safety factor of 4 (SF=4), also known as the 25% rule, is a plumbing industry standard that
is applied to GI and/or grease trap working capacity when sizing the tank (ASPE Vol 4, pg.
218/219). When implemented, this standard has shown to be very effective in the field.
Vendors shall provide continuous flow rate test data (intermittent (i.e. 126 seconds) is not
allowed), demonstrating their GI tank and/ or grease trap can remove FOG to acceptable levels
as required by this ordinance (set by WWTP operator).
Continuous flow rate testing should run for a minimum of 10-15 minutes, by which FOG
removal is >90%.
GGGI tanks should be tested at 0% capacity (no FOG) and 25% FOG capacity. For example,
a 1000-gallon tank would be tested with no FOG and with 250 gallons (1848# of FOG).
Testing for a 100gpm hydromechanical GI or grease trap that equates to 200# of FOG volume
storage (i.e. 1gpm = 2# FOG at full capacity) should be done at 0% capacity (no FOG) and
25% FOG capacity (50 # of FOG working capacity).
Municipality to determine which removal performance test they will enforce.
Goal is >90% FOG removal efficiency, with GI tank providing <100-150 PPM (mg/l) effluent
discharge.
6 -MARKINGS AND ACCOMPANYING LITERATURE
6.1 Prefabricated grease interceptor (GI) tanks complying with this standard shall be marked
with the:

(b) Model number.
(c) Working liquid volume, expressed at least in gallons.
(d) Date (i.e., month and year), date code, or identifier traceable to the date of manufacture.
(e) Maximum design load and maximum burial depth for which the tank is designed; and
(f) Inlet and outlet
6.2 Markings shall be permanent, legible, and visible.
6.3 Acceptable means of applying permanent markings shall include permanently affixed
metal plates, etching, mechanical stamping, stamping with a permanent (non-water-soluble)
ink and molding in.
18
158
Adhesive labels that comply with UL 969 shall also be permanent when placed on a surface
that is not normally submerged in water.
6.4 Grease interceptor tanks shall be accompanied by instructions for their installation. The
plumbing inspector is to review and approve installation instructions prior to ordering a GI
tank.

APPENDIX A
Gravity Grease Interceptor Sizing Methods
A grease interceptor is to be used for treatment of commercial kitchen effluent, and thus is to
be connected to the sanitary sewer system via the sanitary lead from the building. The concern
is the sediment and grease will be collected from the kitchen washing activities and be carried
in the effluent and that this effluent shall be detained long enough to be separated prior to
discharging the separated water into the sanitary sewer lead line. For this example, assume a
FSE’s kitchen produces 500 meals per day. Calculations for sizing of the grease interceptor
are as follows:
METHOD 1 – FULL, PEAK, MAXIMUM FLOW SIZING
Potential for full flow of the 6” dia. pipe may happen at 4 peak periods during a day:
1) restaurant opening, 2) shift change breakfast/lunch, 3) shift change lunch/dinner,
4) restaurant closing.
Full pipe flow 6” at 1/4”/ft. = 375 gpm.
Minimum volume needed in the gravity grease interceptor for FOG storage per Michigan
Plumbing Code, Chapter 10, is approximately 2 pounds of FOG for every 1 gpm of flow.
375 gpm (2) = 750 pounds of FOG
Specific gravity of FOG = 0.887 (Specific gravity of water = 62.4 #/CF) = 55.3 #/CF
750 # of FOG ÷ 55.3 #/CF = 13.6 CF
Applying the plumbing industry standard of the 1/4 or 25% rule (SF = 4) (ASPE Plumbing
Engineering Design Handbook Volume 4, pg. 218/219) to the volume needed produces a
minimum tank volume of 13.6 (4) = 54.2 cubic feet (54.2 cf x 7.481 gal/cf = 405 gallons)
Use a 500-gallon grease interceptor.
METHOD 2 – GREASE PRODUCTION SIZING METHOD (GPSM)
Determine the type of FSE the GGGI will serve, utilize table 8-3 on page 218 of the ASPE
volume 4, and proceed with calculations (example below).
Taco Bell Restaurant (0.035 # FOG/meal -GPSM))
FOG specific gravity = 0.887
FOG = 62.4 #/CF x 0.887 = 55.3 #/CF
500 meals/day X 0.035 #/meal X 90 day cycled = 1,575# of grease
1,575#/(55.3#/cf) = 28.5 CF/90 days
Using the 25% rule 28.5 CF X 4 = 114 CF OF GREASE INTERCEPTOR TANK
STORAGE REQUIRED 114 CF X 7.481 GAL/CF = 853 GALLONS REQUIRED
20
160
Use a 1000-gallon grease interceptor.
METHOD 3 – ADDITIONAL FOG GENERATING EQUIPMENT
A Properly sized GGGI tank using GPSM and including a dishwasher or food disposal unit in
conjunction with a solid’s separator.
Like in Method 2 determine the type of FSE the GGGI will serve and proceed with the
calculations, this time utilizing the “with flatware” grease production value, in table 8-3 on
page 218 of the ASPE volume 4 (example below).
Taco Bell Restaurant (0.0455 # FOG/meal -GPSM)) FOG specific gravity = 0.887 FOG =
62.4 #/CF x 0.887 = 55.3 #/CF
500 meals/day X 0.0455 #/meal X 90 day cycled = 2,048# of grease
2,048#/(55.3#/cf) = 37.1 CF/90 days
Using the 25% rule 37.1 CF X 4 = 148.4 CF OF GREASE INTERCEPTOR TANK
STORAGE REQUIRED 148.4 CF X 7.481 GAL/CF = 1110 GALLONS REQUIRED
Use a 1250-gallon grease interceptor.
Engineers shall design for a 90 day pump out cycle. It allows for a safety factor of design when
we don’t know the true concentrations of effluent that will be coming from an establishment’s
kitchen. If concentrations are higher, then the cleaning frequency can be adjusted typically in
the first 3 months of the establishment’s startup. Most plumbing ordinances require a
monitoring period (0-6 months) to access the grease interceptor system so its implementation
can be successful.
SUMMARY:
Grease Interceptor sizing based on effluent flow resulted in a 500-gallon grease interceptor
needed to treat flow (375 gpm) and retain the FOG in the tank (SF = 4). (13.6 CF ÷ 30.1 CF)
x 90 = approx. 40 days for pump out.
Grease interceptor sizing based on maintenance pump out frequency of 90 days and 500
meals/day resulted in a 1000-gallon grease interceptor for an establishment producing FOG at

Mr. Jason Couture
Finance Director/Chief Financial Officer
City of Taylor
23555 Goddard Rd
Taylor, MI 48180
Dear Jason,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit our proposal for single audit services to City of Taylor (“the
City”) in response to your RFP #0624525-001.
Based on our understanding of your needs, we’ve assembled a team of governmental specialists who will
provide your requested federal single audit services with the high level of quality and efficiency you
deserve so you can focus your attention on what matters most: serving the needs of your community.
However, we don’t just want to check off a series of boxes to complete your engagement — we want to be
your first call when you need an expert perspective on the City’s goals and challenges.
We know you have many options when it comes to selecting a professional services firm for your single
audit, but Plante Moran stands apart from the competition. Here’s what that means for the City:
We’ve served more than 1,700 public sector clients across the U.S., including more than 1,300
GASB entities and 500 governmental clients, such as local governments, airports, public transit,
public utilities, authorities, pension systems, special districts, and state agencies. Many of these
public sector clients require single audits resulting in more than 600 performed annually by the
firm.
Benefits to the City
• We will provide broader insights because we draw on a broader base of knowledge gained from
serving not just governmental entities within Michigan but also nationwide.
• The City won’t need to train or educate our team since each team member’s career focus is
government auditing and performing federal single audits.
Our professionals are recognized as industry leaders. We participate in the AICPA, the
Government Finance Officers Association (at the national and state level), and professional
associations (see page 12).
Benefits to the City
• You’ll receive advance notice of upcoming legislative changes and guidance, quick answers to
difficult questions, and help resolving federal compliance issues.
• We monitor the impact of GASB standards, create practical tools to assist our clients with
implementation, and provide feedback to the GASB on proposed standards on behalf of our
clients.
1 226
• The City will have access to frequent educational programs throughout the year at no
additional cost. Our publications and CPE-approved webinars will help you analyze how recent
changes in regulations, legislation, and economic conditions could impact the City.
Our customized workplan will provide a more efficient and seamless audit experience with on-
time delivery. Cornerstones of our service approach include frequent communication throughout
the year (not just during the audit) and a higher degree of partner and manager involvement. See
more about our workplan on page 17.
Benefits to the City
• Our most knowledgeable and experienced team members will direct the audit and address any
issues with the City as they arise.
• Having served the City for over four decades, we have familiarity with the City’s single audit,
processes, procedures, and controls, as well as the individuals responsible for these processes,
procedures, and controls.
• Year-round integration of our professional standards team ensures the City experiences a
smooth engagement with no year-end surprises.
• We’ll employ easy-to-use technology, templates, and tools for efficient and effective
collaboration, document sharing, and status tracking throughout the audit.
We prioritize client service over maximizing firm profits. That’s why you’ll work with our most
qualified experts for the City’s specific needs, regardless of their home office location or
geography. This structure — which you can read more about on page 12 — sets us apart from our
competitors.
As described in more detail on page 22, our proposed fee would be $15,000 for a single audit with one
major program and $10,000 for each additional major program (if required).
Our proposal describes how we will serve you, what we’ve done for other clients including the city, and
specifics on the timeline, fees, and scope of work. I am authorized to make representations for our
proposal and bind Plante & Moran, PLLC. I will follow up promptly to answer any additional questions you
might have.
Sincerely,
William Brickey, CPA
Engagement Partner

Our answers to your questions

D. Profile of the Proposer
1. State whether the firm is local, regional, national or international.
Plante Moran is a nationally recognized professional services firm with a strong regional presence. Our
nearly 4,000 professionals serve clients across the United States, supported by a network of offices
strategically located to deliver personalized, high-quality service.
2. State the location of the office from which the work is to be done and the number of
partners, managers, supervisors, seniors and other professional staff employed at the
office.
Our team will perform the audit using resources from both our Detroit office, located at 1098 Woodward
Avenue, Detroit, MI 48226, and our Southfield office located at 3000 Town Center Suite 100, Southfield,
MI, 48075.
When it comes to the resources we provide the City, we are not limited to this one office. We have the
ability to easily draw upon expertise, service offerings, and professionals from across our firm to best
fulfill your needs and meet our responsibilities as your auditor. Our service model removes the office-

below the information on our governmental practice. We believe our experience with governments is
unmatched; we work closely with hundreds of municipal clients in the State of Michigan alone, and so we
understand the many financial challenges that communities are facing. Over the last four decades, the

H. Proposer’s approach to the
examination
1. Submit a work plan to accomplish the scope of work defined in these guidelines. This
should include the basis for the audit. The work plan should also include time
estimates for each significant segment of the work and the staff level to be assigned.
Where possible, individual staff members should be named. The planned use of
specialists should be specified. The audit work plan should completely cover what
audit work will be accomplished to allow the proposer to render:
a. An opinion report on the financial statements.
b. A report on compliance and internal control over financial reporting in accordance
with GAS.
c. A report on compliance for major program and internal control over compliance in
accordance with OMB Uniform Guidance.
Audit approach
Our goal is to provide the City with a seamless, efficient audit from engagement letter through statement
delivery and beyond. We co-develop every element of our approach with the City, tailoring each phase
and process to the City’ specific needs, from deadlines, to testing areas, to fieldwork, to frequency and
forms of communication.
More than just a historical compliance activity
Our comprehensive audit approach is designed to address all significant accounting and auditing issues
and is tailored to the unique needs of the City. As a result, we’ll address the City’s critical areas of risk
and vulnerability. While professional standards require us to perform certain mandatory auditing
procedures, our approach goes above and beyond what is mandatory. Audits should be more than just a
historical compliance activity. They should provide suggestions for improving accounting procedures
and internal controls. They should involve discussions to review the City’s financial statements and what
they should be communicating. Our approach is to deliver an efficient and effective audit by balancing
risk, value, and cost.
Communication: The heart of a successful relationship
Expect to hear from us often. We believe communication is a fundamental right of our clients and is
critical for a successful engagement. We will communicate with the City through planned meetings,
check-in meetings, ad hoc meetings, proactive email notifications, phone calls, in-person visits (as
allowed), and virtual video conferences. We will establish a cadence of communication that suits the City,
and we commit to that level of communication throughout the engagement. Your satisfaction is critically
important to us.

2. The work plan should demonstrate the auditors understanding of the audit
requirements of OMB Guidance: Cost Principles, Audit and Administrative
Requirements for Federal Awards.
Single audit methodology
Single audit planning
Our audit approach and methodology focus on testing organizational compliance with Uniform
Guidance, ensuring that all objectives required in a single audit, along with those required by any
individual granting agency, are examined and assessed, based on risk. Our general audit approach is
outlined below:
Step Description
Develop audit objectives Develop audit objectives for each compliance requirement based on types
of program funding received utilizing a combination of the grant
agreement, the Code of Federal Regulations, and published compliance
supplements and matrices.
Understand the organization and Understand the City’s federal programs, systems, and processes through
program details the use of a client questionnaire, which assists in outlining details and is
completed mainly by the City’s staff.
Assess risk Perform risk assessment, based on our experience with the programs,
prior-year findings, and our understanding of the controls over the
process, as well as through discussions with the City’s management.
Assess compliance control Review environment factors to identify overall effectiveness as it relates
environment to federal programs.
Identify major programs Identify major programs in accordance with the federal rules to determine
the number of major programs to test to meet single audit requirements.
Assess inherent risk Assess the risk that errors could occur at the program level. We will
examine several factors to determine inherent risk, including, but not
limited to, findings from other agency audits or monitoring visits, the
City’s experience with the grant, prior findings, and guidance from the
granting agency.
Based on all planning procedures performed, we will design audit procedures and prepare audit
programs. The timing of audit procedures will be coordinated with the City’s staff. Our testing is
designed to gather sufficient appropriate audit evidence on whether the City has complied with laws,
regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements that could have a direct and material
effect on each major program.
Our team of single audit specialists has developed a comprehensive library of proprietary audit tools to
test major programs. As new federal funding sources are identified, our team designs and updates the
appropriate questionnaires, programs, and approach we use with our clients. We also analyze the grant
20 245
agreements, compliance supplements and matrices, and the applicable sections of CFR to complete the
audit programs.
Single audit sample sizes and detailed testing
Sample size selection is critical to the correct testing of federal programs. We test internal controls over
compliance as well as compliance requirements that have a direct and material effect on each major
program. We consult the AICPA Audit Guide, Government Auditing Standards, and Uniform Guidance in
designing an audit approach that includes audit sampling to achieve both objectives.
Since each grant requires customization based on specific grant agreements and additional requirements
specified by the applicable U.S. agencies, our detailed testing plan will be finalized to include all related
key controls and key compliance areas.
