Custodial Services We have sent a final termination letter via certified mail to Coverall with a termination date of 1/31/17. We have interviewed 3 candidates recommended by other townships. They all seemed qualified and will provide you with a hiring recommendation hopefully by the township board meeting. We recommend that whoever we hire be an employee at a rate of $15 per hour. We need to pay a bit more to get a better quality of service. We have more control with an employee and can fold them under our coverages and avoid the complexity / burden of having them as a contract service who have to purchase coverage. The concession stand toilets should be part of the cleaning service and not part of the contract with Northwoods, who does our landscape work. Judy agrees that this is best to have done by the custodian. I contacted 6 neighboring Townships: Courtland, Nelson, Plainfield, Solon, Sparta, and Tyrone re how they met their cleaning / custodial needs.
Research: Our building is approximately 6,048 square feet. Two townships are comparable in size: Solon at 6,000 square feet and Courtland at 4,000 – 5,000 square feet. Three townships have contract employees to whom they provide 1099 tax forms. Three others have employees who receive W‐2 tax forms.
Monthly budget for each township ranges from $200 ‐ $300 at Courtland to $1,333 per month at Nelson has the greatest square footage at 8,000.
Solon pays $323 / month to their contractor staff, and Courtland pays $200 ‐ $300 / month to its employee, based on a $15 / hour wage who works approximately 5 hours per week. Sparta pays $10.45 / hour to its contract staff. Nelson pays $13.07 / hour to its employee. Courtland pays $15 / hour to its employee. All townships are satisfied with the employment status that they have chosen.
We estimate our cleaning supplies not to exceed $50 per month (Coverall provided all supplies), and we will need to purchase a vacuum cleaner at $300 ‐ $450.

Kevin, Of the 3 candidates whom I interviewed, Jim Sharkey is the most impressive, although all 3 candidates would do quite well in my view. He had a real ‘eye’ for cleaning issues, had a lot of very good questions. His standard rate is $25 / hr. but would accept that work for $15 / hr. on a 6‐month commitment with intention to go indefinitely. He will deliver a proposal to you tomorrow. He believes this is a 5 – 6 hr. per week commitment and that he and his wife would each work 3 hours on a day that we can agree upon with him. He seemed totally flexible. Jim is open to serving as either a contracted service or as an employee. He indicated that he carries all contractor‐required coverages. He prefers to bring is own cleaning supplies and vacuum. I did not have time to check Jim’s references (see his brochure that I’ve placed on your desk). These include Nugent Builders (Jared Gauss would be the reference). A 2nd reference would be from Blakeslee Heating and Cooling, Jack Newhouse (he thought that was Jack’s last name) as reference. Sharkey predicts sterling references. I recommend that you check his references and if they check out to offer him and his wife the position. David Medema Deputy Supervisor

ALGOMA TOWNSHIP EMPLOYMENT POLICIES
1. INTRODUCTION.
1.1 Basis and Scope of these Policies. These Policies cover many of the policies, procedures, requirements and expectations for Township employees, both full-time and part-time and including deputies of those Township Board members who have appointed deputies. The Policies also apply to the Township’s paid-on-call firefighters, except that in many cases the fire department policies and procedures manual may have other or more specific provisions that apply only to fire department personnel. Accordingly, some of these policies may not apply to paid-on-call firefighters or may be superseded by other provisions in the Fire Department Policy and Procedure Manual.
While the Township does not currently have employment contracts with any of its employees, these Policies apply to such employees unless any approved, written employment contract states otherwise.
While the provisions of these Policies apply to all Township employees, including the deputy supervisor, if one is appointed by the supervisor, and the deputy clerk and deputy treasurer, the Supervisor, Clerk and Treasurer are entitled by law to determine various matters regarding the work of their respective deputies, and accordingly such authority as to deputies’ work-assignments and related matters is not intended to be superseded by the provisions of these Policies.
2. SELECTION OF EMPLOYEES.
2.1 Equal Employment Opportunity. The Township is an equal opportunity employer. It is our policy to select employees and to conduct all personnel activities without regard to religion, race, color, national origin, age, sex, height, weight, marital status, disability, veteran’s status, or any other characteristics protected by applicable law. The Township applies its personnel policies and procedures in a manner that assures equal treatment of all employees.
2.2 Americans with Disabilities Act. The Township is committed to providing equal employment opportunities to otherwise qualified persons who have disabilities. This includes providing reasonable accommodations that can enable the employee to perform his or her essential job functions and do not constitute an undue hardship, or direct threat to the employee, or others. Any disabled employee who believes that accommodation is needed in order for him or her to perform the assigned job should notify the Township Supervisor in writing of the need for such accommodation within the period of time required by law for such notification. When appropriate, we may need an employee’s permission to obtain additional information from physicians or other medical or rehabilitation professionals, to assist the Township in considering reasonable accommodations.
2.3 Hiring of Employees. When necessary and appropriate, as determined by the Township Board, the Township hires employees who have the necessary skills, education and experience to fill a vacant employee position or a new position. There are various requirements for certain employee positions with the Township. These are covered in job descriptions or in
Page 9 of 126

{01927119 3 } 2
other Township policies. In general, these requirements relate to particular skills and work experiences which may be needed for the position involved.
2.4 Applications and Interviews. Persons desiring employment with the Township must complete an application form which can be obtained from the Clerk’s office. Other appropriate information in addition to the application may be requested.
In some cases, a vacant Township employee position may be posted on the public bulletin board or elsewhere in the Township office. In some cases, the Township may advertise in a local newspaper, on the Internet, or in any other publication that a particular position is available.
After receiving applications for a new or vacant position, it is the Township’s practice to review those applications and to determine which of them, if any, should be considered further by means of one or more interviews with the applicants selected for interviews. In those cases, the applicants will be appropriately notified and invited to attend an interview at the Township office at a mutually convenient time. The supervisor or Township Board will determine the appropriate persons to conduct the interview, depending upon the position to be filled.
The purpose of the interview is to evaluate further the background, training, experience and skills of the applicant, as well as to inform the applicant further about the nature and requirements of the position and the range of salary or wages and benefits. All applicants interviewed will be notified after the position is filled.
2.5 Hiring Decision. All employees are hired on the basis of a decision voted upon by the Township Board at a public meeting. The Township Supervisor, committee chairperson or other Township official or employee may recommend the selected person for Township Board consideration. With respect to the deputy supervisor, if any, and the deputy clerk and deputy treasurer, the hiring decision is carried out, respectively, by the Supervisor, Clerk and Treasurer, without consideration or action by the Township Board.
2.6 Employment of Relatives of an Employee or Official. The Township does not automatically exclude the employment of qualified persons who are relatives of current Township employees or officials by blood or marriage, so long as such employment does not, in the opinion of the Township Board, create actual or perceived conflicts of interest. However, in considering the employment of relatives of other Township employees, the Township Board will carefully consider whether a public perception of favoritism or other inappropriate condition may arise as a result of the employment of an employee’s relative or a relative of an elected Township official.
2.7 Immigration Control and Reform Act. The Township complies with the U.S. Immigration Control and Reform Act. Before a person is hired as a Township employee, the applicant may be required to provide documentation to verify that he or she is legally authorized to work in the United States.
2.8 Personnel Records. The Township maintains an individual personnel file for each Township employee. Among other matters, the personnel file may include the following:

Memorandum
To: Algoma Township Board and Planning Commission
From: James R. Brown
Date: January 4, 2017
Subject: Township Zoning Ordinance – Current Medical Marijuana Provisions (Section 4.17A)
A. Background
As requested, I have reviewed the current medical marijuana provisions in Section 4.17A of the zoning ordinance.
This provision in the zoning ordinance is based on the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act of 2008 (MMMA), but there have been three amendments in the MMMA since Section 4.17A became effective, and there have also been a few Michigan Court of Appeals decisions interpreting some of the provisions in the MMMA.
The most recent amendment in the MMMA is Act 283 of 2016, which became effective on December 20, 2016.
Section 4.17A is still largely in compliance with the MMMA, but some of its provisions should be deleted or amended, in view of the subsequent statutory amendments and the Court of Appeals decisions.
As you know, there are three new medical marijuana statutes in Michigan, effective as of December 20, 2016. The most significant of these is Act 281, which establishes five types of State-licensed “marijuana facilities” that can be available in local communities that adopt ordinances to approve them. However, the statutes do not repeal the MMMA, though Act 283 does make amendments in it.
Page 13 of 126
{02060791 2 } 2
This memorandum does not address the new 2016 statutes (except for Act 283), but is limited to the current legal status of Section 4.17A, and my recommendations for needed amendments in it.
B. Recommended Changes in Section 4.17A
1. Home Occupation. Currently, medical marijuana use by a primary caregiver1 for the caregiver’s qualifying patients is permitted only as a home occupation on residential property in the Agricultural and Residential districts. This approach does not expressly conflict with the MMMA, but only because the Act does not include specific provisions on local government regulation of medical marijuana use.
In Ter Beek v City of Wyoming, 495 Mich 1, 846 NW2d 531 (2014), the Michigan Supreme Court held that the City of Wyoming’s medical marijuana ordinance was unlawful because it conflicted with the MMMA. That ordinance had the effect of prohibiting any use of marijuana within the City, including use in compliance with the MMMA. While the court stated that it did not determine that the MMMA “forecloses all local regulation of marijuana,” the court also noted that it did not decide “whether and to what extent the MMMA may preempt all local government regulation” of medical marijuana use.
Beginning with the Ter Beek decision, and including the three 2016 medical marijuana statutes, it should be acknowledged that the legal landscape of medical marijuana in Michigan seems to be changing toward a greater acceptance of the providing and use of marijuana to assist patients with medical conditions. It is possible that a court may conclude that restricting a primary caregiver’s lawful activity to a home occupation may intrude too much into State regulation under the MMMA.
A very recent example of the accepted scope of the MMMA is the December 20, 2016 Michigan Court of Appeals opinion in the case of Michigan v Latz, No. 328427, in which the Court of Appeals reversed the conviction of a medical marijuana patient for transporting medical marijuana in a manner that violated a 2012 provision of the State penal code. The defendant had, however, complied with all applicable provisions of the MMMA. The court reversed the defendant’s conviction on the ground that the Act itself provides that “all other acts . . . inconsistent with this act do not apply to the medical use of marijuana as provided for by this act.” Thus, because the defendant complied with the MMMA, he could not be convicted of violating a penal code provision that regulated transportation of medical marijuana in a manner other than that specified in the MMMA.
I suggest that, rather than narrowly limiting a caregiver’s activity as a home occupation, basically the same goals could be achieved merely by including lawful caregiver activity as an
1 A primary caregiver is a person registered with the State who provides the permitted amount of medical
marijuana to no more than five registered qualifying patients who have designated that person as their primary caregiver. A caregiver is permitted to grow up to 12 marijuana plants for each of the caregiver’s registered patients (plus 12 plants for the caregiver’s own use, if the caregiver is also a registered patient).
Page 14 of 126
{02060791 2 } 3
available, regulated land use in the agricultural and residential districts, though only in accordance with the Township’s regulations on that use.
2. Pending Kent County Case. As you may be aware, our firm is currently defending Byron Township in a case in Kent County Circuit Court involving the Township’s medical marijuana provisions, which are very similar to those of Algoma. That case will likely be decided in 2017. If the case is decided adversely to the Township, that result will likely require further changes or deletions in Algoma’s Section 4.17A.
3. Residence of Caregivers. Subsection (b)(3) of Section 4.17A states that not more than two registered primary caregivers may operate at one property, and that a primary caregiver must be a full-time resident of the dwelling. It is at least possible that more than two registered primary caregivers might be living on the same property. If a caregiver is registered with the State and otherwise complies with the MMMA, that person is entitled to grow and provide marijuana to his or her patients. Subsection (b)(3) should be deleted.
4. Growing Marijuana only in a Building. Subsection (b)(4) of Section 4.17A states that a caregiver’s marijuana activity must be entirely within a dwelling, an attached garage or an accessory building. However, the MMMA has been amended to permit marijuana to be grown out of doors, so long as the marijuana is grown within a structure that is enclosed on all sides, anchored to the ground and is locked so as not to be accessible by anyone other than the caregiver or a patient of the caregiver. Subsection (b)(4) must be amended to permit this restricted growing of marijuanaoutside of a building.
5. Prohibition on Signs. Subsection (b)(6) prohibits any sign on the caregiver’s premises that relates to marijuana. This provision may be retained.
6. Marijuana Equipment. Subsection (b)(7) permits lighting, heating, watering and other equipment necessary to cultivate the permitted quantity of marijuana. This provision may be retained.
7. Delivery of Marijuana to Patients. Subsection (b)(8) states that a caregiver is to deliver marijuana to qualifying patients at some location other than the residence of the caregiver. It states that a qualifying patient may not come to the dwelling of the caregiver to receive marijuana. However, the MMMA does state that a caregiver shall not be subject to any civil penalty (such as for violating an ordinance) “for assisting a qualifying patient” so long as the caregiver does not possess or provide more than the maximum permitted amount of marijuana. The Act also states that no one shall be subject to a civil penalty “for being in the presence or vicinity of the medical use of marijuana.”
In view of recent Court of Appeals decisions, it seems entirely possible that a court would question why a primary caregiver could not “assist” his or her qualifying patient on the caregiver’s own premises, so long as the Act is otherwise complied with. Is there a legitimate governmental interest in the Township prohibiting lawful marijuana interaction between caregiver and patient at the caregiver’s residence? It might also be noted that, in any case, a caregiver may not provide marijuana to more than five patients. This subsection should be deleted.
Page 15 of 126
{02060791 2 } 4
8. Personal Delivery by Caregiver. Subsection (b)(9) correctly states that no person other than a primary caregiver may deliver marijuana to a patient connected with that caregiver.
9. Location of Marijuana. Subsection (b)(10), like subsection (b)(4), permits marijuana to be grown or kept only within a building. The provision needs to be amended to permit the limited outdoor growing of marijuana described above.
10. Smoking Marijuana on Caregiver Premises. Subsection (b)(11) prohibits the consumption or smoking of marijuana on the premises of the caregiver (except by the caregiver, if the caregiver is a registered patient). This provision is not specifically contrary to the MMMA, but the Act at least implies that persons may be in the presence of patients who are using marijuana, because it states that no one shall be subject to a civil penalty for being in the presence of marijuana use if that use is in accordance with the MMMA. I suggest that the provision be amended to prohibit consumption or smoking of marijuana out-of-doors on the property of the patient’s caregiver.
11. Marijuana Quantity. Subsection (b)(12) correctly limits medical marijuana use to only the quantity permitted by the MMMA, for either a patient or a caregiver.
12. Permits. Subsection (b)(13) properly requires all necessary construction, electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits which are required by the applicable codes for the equipment or devices involved in growing marijuana.
13. Preventing View of Marijuana Plants. Subsection (b)(14) may be retained, as it requires that windows in a building must be covered if marijuana plants being grown inside would be visible through the windows.
14. Outdoor Growing. Subsection (b)(15) prohibits growing marijuana out of doors. As noted above, this must be amended to permit the limited outdoor growing now authorized under the MMMA.
15. Marijuana Merchandise. Subsection (b)(16) prohibits the sale of merchandise or products associated with medical marijuana use. This should be deleted. The MMMA now provides that “marijuana paraphernalia” may be provided, and that marijuana paraphernaliainvolved in medical use of marijuana may not be seized or forfeited.
16. Township Inspection. Subsection (b)(17) properly specifies that parts of a building where energy usage and heat exceeds typical residential use may be subject to Township inspection, including fire department inspection, for safety purposes and to assure compliance with local ordinances.
17. Other Regulations. Subsection (b)(18) requires compliance with certain of the provisions in Section 4.17, which covers usual home occupations. This should be deleted if marijuana caregiver activity is no longer required to be a home occupation.
18. Marijuana Dispensary or Business. Section 4.17A(d) prohibits medical marijuana dispensaries or similar businesses. This provision should be retained. So-called dispensaries are not lawful under the MMMA.
Page 16 of 126
{02060791 2 } 5
19. Compliance with MMMA. Section 4.17A(e) has 15 subparagraphs, all of which require compliance with certain provisions in the MMMA. All of these are appropriate and should be retained, except as follows:
(a) Several of the subparagraphs refer to the delivery of marijuana in general, and also include references to marijuana seeds and other parts of the marijuana plant. Many of these provisions will need to be slightly amended. Act 283 permits a primary caregiver to “manufacture” and deliver “a marijuana-infused product,” which is an edible substance, beverage or some similar product that contains usable marijuana that is intended for consumption in a manner other than by smoke inhalation. Thus, various subparagraphs need to accommodate theso-called “marijuana-infused products” that might be provided by caregivers.
(b) Subparagraph 6 limits the permitted “incidental amount” of marijuana seeds to not more than one seed for each marijuana plant that a caregiver is permitted to cultivate. This provision should not be more specific than a reference to an “incidental amount” of “seeds, stalks and usable roots” of marijuana, inasmuch as these elements of the plant are not included in so-called usable marijuana and the MMMA does not define what is meant by an “incidental amount.”
(c) Subparagraph 10 prohibits the purchase of marijuana seeds from a registered primary caregiver or other sellers. As noted above, marijuana seeds are not included in “usable marijuana” and therefore marijuana seeds (and also the stalks and roots of the plant) can be purchased and otherwise dealt with without penalty by law. This provision must be deleted.
(d) Subparagraph 11 prohibits the “manufacturing” of medical marijuana. However, as noted above, Act 283 permits a caregiver to manufacture a marijuana-infused product for a qualifying patient, and so this provision should be slightly amended.
(e) Subparagraph 12 prohibits the possession or manufacturing of marijuana paraphernalia. This should be deleted, as marijuana paraphernalia may be provided to a patient or a caregiver.
(f) Various subsections refer to provisioning centers and safety compliance facilities. Although these facilities are authorized under Act 281, they may be permitted in a township, city or village only if specifically permitted by ordinance. These references, and othersimilar ones in Section 4.17A, may be retained, unless Algoma elects to permit any marijuana facilities under the new statute.
(g) Subsection 15 prohibits a caregiver from receiving “compensation” for providing marijuana to a patient, other than reimbursement for actual expenses. The MMMA now provides that a registered primary caregiver may receive compensation “for costs associated with assisting a registered qualifying patient in the medical use of marijuana.” This provision could easily be construed as including all types of “costs” that a caregiver might have in assisting a patient, such as “costs’ that reflect the value of the caregiver’s time and efforts as well as out-of-pocket expenses. Moreover, there is no practical way to determine if a violation of this “compensation” provision has occurred, if the parties deny a violation, other than proceedings in a lawsuit to obtain records and testimony. From the Township’s point of view, it is probably more
Page 17 of 126
{02060791 2 } 6
important to regulate actual medical marijuana activity, rather than trying to find out whether a patient was overcharged by the caregiver. I suggest that subsection 15 be deleted.
C. Other Matters
1. If requested, I will prepare and submit a proposed zoning ordinance amendment which would make the above-described changes in Section 4.17A.
2. On the other hand, if Township Board members no longer wish to regulate medical marijuana activities by ordinance, and therefore avoid potential enforcement efforts, Section 4.17A could be repealed. The process for doing so would be the same as for adopting a zoning ordinance amendment, that is, a public hearing on the repeal ordinance by the Planning Commission, after newspaper publication of notice, a recommendation by the Planning Commission after public hearing and then final action by the Township Board. A notice of adoption of the repeal ordinance would then be published in the local newspaper, and the ordinance would become effective seven days after that publication.

Memorandum
Truck Sale: As I advised in the last meeting, we were way off with the refurbishment costs for our old Engine 21. I have since then spoken to a few other sales reps in this regard. I have yet to get a call back from anyone willing to quote this project. I feel this is because of the amount of money we are wanting to spend on this build. I was advised by one of the sales reps that the current bid we had for the truck was still low and that he didn’t want to waste his time on gathering his price if we didn’t want to spend what was currently bid. With that stated, I feel we need to sell this truck for what we can get out of it. Like I advised a few months ago, I feel we should go with the out of state sales rep, Brindlee Mountain as they offer a way to still sell it ourselves without any fees. If they find a buyer the fee would be 10% of the total sale of the truck. I would work with Brindlee Mountain in regards to a fare purchase price. What I have observed is the truck is valued around the $20,000.00 mark.
I am looking for authorization to get the process started on the sale of this truck. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. Troy Guerra Fire Chief Algoma Township Fire Department 10531 Algoma Ave Rockford Mi, 49341 [email protected]

Board Members, Last month we approved the Township Board schedule of regular meetings and included in that resolution was the approved staff holidays. After discussion with staff members it has come to my attention that we should consider closing the Township Office on the Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve holidays. Currently we approve the office to close at noon on both of those holidays. Staff members report that the offices are very quiet those days and that people who do visit the office are surprised to see that it is open. Also, many other jurisdictions are also closed the entire day for those two days. Therefore, I ask you to amend the Township Holiday Schedule approving the closing of the Township Office on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve the entire day. Thank you,
Judy A. Bigney, CMMC/MMC Algoma Township Clerk

2017 Standard Mileage Rates for Business, Medical and Moving Announced
IR-2016-169, Dec.13, 2016
WASHINGTON- The Internal Revenue Service today issued the 2017 optional standard mileage rates used to calculate the deductible costs of operating an automobile for business, charitable, medical or moving purposes.
Beginning on Jan. 1, 2017, the standard mileage rates for the use of a car (also vans, pickups or panel trucks) will be:
• 53.5 cents per mile for business miles driven, down from 54 cents for 2016 • 17 cents per mile driven for medical or moving purposes, down from 19 cents for 2016 • 14 cents per mile driven in service of charitable organizations
The business mileage rate decreased half a cent per mile and the medical and moving expense rates each dropped 2 cents per mile from 2016. The charitable rate is set by statute and remains unchanged.
The standard mileage rate for business is based on an annual study of the fixed and variable costs of operating an automobile. The rate for medical and moving purposes is based on the variable costs.
Taxpayers always have the option of calculating the actual costs of using their vehicle rather than using the standard mileage rates.
A taxpayer may not use the business standard mileage rate for a vehicle after using any depreciation method under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) or after claiming a Section 179 deduction for that vehicle. In addition, the business standard mileage rate cannot be used for more than four vehicles used simultaneously.
These and other requirements are described in Rev. Proc. 2010-51 . Notice 2016-79, posted today on IRS.gov, contains the standard mileage rates, the amount a taxpayer must use in calculating reductions to basis for depreciation taken under the business standard mileage rate, and the maximum standard automobile cost that a taxpayer may use in computing the allowance under a fixed and variable rate plan.

BOARD OF REVIEW APPOINTMENTS: Supervisor Green recommended approval of Wayne Bigney to the Board of Review.
Treasurer Ellenwood expressed concern with the appointment because Mr. Bigney never attended any kind of training while on the Township Board as a Trustee and she believes that training for the Board of Review is important as it has a set of rules to follow much like the Board of Appeals. She stated that Assessor Rosenzweig has reported that he will hold an in house training for all BOR members and hopes that Mr. Bigney would attend. Clerk Bigney stated that she thought that Mr. Bigney would be willing to attend a township training with the Assessor. She added that Mr. Bigney is highly respected in our community and very good with numbers and feels he would be a good choice for Board of Review.

Supervisor Green made recommendation to appoint Trustee Robert Wilson as Ex Offcio Member to the Planning Commission. His appointment is for four year and follows the term of the Township Board which commences on November 20, 2016 and expires on November 20, 2020.
Trustee Powell stated that he knows Bob has been with the township for 39 years and has a lot of experience as he has served on various boards. But, he feels it is time to find someone else to serve on the Planning Commission and would like Trustee Ungrey to do so. Supervisor Green noted that Trustee Ungrey does not have any experience with the Planning Commission and would prefer to get some experience on the Township Board before serving on the Planning Commission. Clerk Bigney stated that in the mean time the Board could consider budgeting for Citizen Planner courses for Trustee Ungrey to take and other current members of the Planning Commission or Township Board as well. Its a good time to reach out and see who may be interested in attending and budgeting for it.

against our current ordinance to ensure that there are no changes needed. She said the Township Attorney has recommended that we review our ordinance and the new laws and she thinks it is a good idea to do so. The State is now allowing different types of facilities and will start a new application process next December and the Township Board and Planning Commission both need to make sure we are all on the same page when it comes to what is allowed in Algoma Township. We have one year to review the new laws against our ordinance so now is a good time to start before the Planning Commission gets busy with other site plan approvals. Members discussed the topic and agreed with Clerk Bigney. Supervisor Green will address this at the next Planning Commission meeting.
ZONING ASSISTANT NEW HIRE REQUEST (motion):
Supervisor Green requested to fill the vacant Zoning Assistant position at 20-24 hours per week (22 on average, and 10 hours less than is approved in budget) and at a rate of $12-15 per hour. He added that the overall budget expense will be equivalent due to the new Deputy Supervisor working fewer hours.
Discussion ensued regarding concern over finding someone willing to work so few hours, starting them out by just taking minutes for PC and BOA and working in to answering zoning questions as the Zoning Administrator feels comfortable. Suggestions to find someone by seeking job sharing from other area townships or local schools.
Motion to authorize the Supervisor to look into finding someone to fill Zoning Assistant position at 20-24 hours per week and a rate of $12-15 per hour.

He spoke briefly about the Fire Commission and the possible revamping of it. He spoke about the new Fire Dispatch and the need to budget for new equipment and finally he reported on the status of the Engine 21 refurbishing which has ending up being a dead end as there is not a company out there that wants to take it on.

This month we had only one regularly scheduled training and our annual make‐up training. Our
monthly training consisted of a SCBA course and operations. Our make‐up training was the
lowest it has been in several years as only three firefighters needed make up training that they
missed throughout the year.
Our call volume is still on track to break our old record by about 100 calls for service. This is in
big part due to an increase of in home medical call volume. We feel this should be a steady pace
and are planning accordingly for next year.
This month I coordinated, worked on and submitted a regional grant to replace our self‐
contained breathing apparatus. This grant included our department as well as Sparta, Rockford
and Courtland’s Fire Departments. The total cost to our department would be just shy of
$14,000. Tkjhjhe total grant is over $500,000. If you have any questions feel free to contact me

*For Any Group Program lA, KS, MD, NC, TN, TX and WI do not allow for 5% up-front discount due to state filings.
How the Dividend Plan Works o Policyholders may enter the program at time of new business or renewal. o Policies can have any effective date (no 'common' effective date required) o Policies are assigned into annual program terms according to their effective date. o Dividends are calculated 15 months after the expiration of the program term and
require approval by Accident Fund's Board of Directors and therefore, can never be guaranteed.

will return this year.
2. Community Building Update: Working on material information for the amphitheater;
Meijer has made a donation toward the community building project; CBDT has
received a new land donation and easements in Solon Township are being sought for
the North Kent Trail.
3. Technology Update: Credit card and website usage continue to grow. In the near
future Ms. Gerhardt will be meeting with Dr. VanDuyn at CSPS to discuss lack of
update from the school’s IT department regarding questions CSAPR needs answered
to move forward with our plans to increase our technological needs. Ms. Gerhardt has
informed RecPro of our interest in being one of their Beta tester, and she expects to
have some options for texting software to present at the December meeting.
4. CSPS Update: Met with John Norton, CSPS Athletic Director, about field
availability this spring so we can move forward with 78ers softball/baseball program.
There were some issues with facility availability that caused rocket basketball fliers
not to be completed as quickly as originally planned but it was worked out in time to
not delay the start of the program. Restructuring of CSPS employee roles and lack of
experience with facility scheduling is believed to have caused the problem.

waiting on others to be received. Planning to schedule the public hearing to move
forward with the master plan process.
7) Director Pay Evaluation: Mr. Tabor is concerned with the Directors current salary and felt it was important
to discuss it now instead of if or when the Board had to hire a new director. The Board had a discussion.

seconded Tabor. 5 Ayes to 2 Opposed, Motion Passed.
8) Action Items
a) None
9) Confirm Next Meeting Date Monday, December 5th, 2016 at 7:00pm
