PLANNING & GRANTS ANNUAL REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Planning and Grants Department and the Ottawa County Planning Commission have again strived to resolve countywide problems, fulfill statutory obligations, and develop a proactive, credible, leadership role in the community during 2004/2005. The projects completed this past year are indicative that our goals are being achieved. These projects also reflect the extent of communication and collaboration (through joint projects and partnerships) that exist between the County, local units of government, and other planning organizations. A few of the highlights from 2004/2005 are as follows: Completion of the M-104 Corridor Study; Selection of an Urban Smart Growth Partner (Hudsonville) and the formal kick-off of the Urban Smart Growth Program; Completion of the Road Salt Management Plan and initiation of a Road Salt Monitoring Program to evaluate the impacts of reduced road salt applications; Completion of a Wireless Broadband Deployment Model; Completion of a Citizen Planner Training Program (in partnership with Michigan State University); Completion of another segment of paved shoulders along Lakeshore Drive (in partnership with the Parks and Recreation Department); Initiation of a Countywide Corridor Plan; Completion of a Rural Transit Services Report. In addition to assisting the Planning Commission with its goals, the Planning and Grants Department has had several other highlights that include the following: Updated the Health Section of the Ottawa County Data Book; Coordinated several legislative meetings, and provided testimony at several state legislative committee hearings, in conjunction with the Administrator’s Office; Completed a Point-in-Time Study for the Mental Health Diversion Task Force; Designed several databases for future evaluations of county programs; and Applied for, and received, a multi-million dollar Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Grant for flooded properties in Robinson Township. Further, the Planning and Grants Department staff has also been involved in several other administrative-support duties that include project research, program evaluation, data collection and dissemination, and technical report compilation. Staff members have also participated in several planning initiatives and committee meetings that were administered by other community agencies. Additionally, the Planning and Grants Department worked with several other agencies and departments in 2004/2005 to obtain and/or process over $9.2 million in grant awards. Overall, 2004/2005 was a productive year for the Planning and Grants Department. It is our expectation that 2005/2006 will produce similar results.

PLANNING DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW

The Planning and Grants Department is comprised of seven employees (See Attachment A). The Department is responsible for five primary objectives: Assisting the Planning Commission with their obligations and efforts to coordinate planning activities (physical, social, economic, environmental, transportation) throughout Ottawa County; Facilitating the development of strategic plans and evaluation components for county programs; Maintaining statistical data regarding the County’s quality of life indicators; Conducting research on grants, preparing grant applications, and administering grant awards for County projects and programs; and providing other departments and agencies with assistance in the areas of basic research, applied research, legislative analysis, technical report compilation, and program support. The Department also has several ancillary duties which include the following: Analyzing legislation; Answering general informational inquires regarding a broad range of county issues; and providing research and administrative support to citizens, local officials, other county personnel.

PLANNING COMMISSION OVERVIEW

A County Planning Commission (See Attachment B-1) was created pursuant to MCL 125.101 et seq. (Act 282 of 1945 as amended) through an ordinance passed by the Ottawa County Board of Commissioners on August 8, 1989. The ordinance authorizes the Planning Commission to establish Rules and Bylaws to govern its operations. In addition to the ordinance, the Board also approved a list of duties for the Planning Commission that is outlined in a document entitled "Summary of Duties" (See Attachment B-2).

County Planning Commissions are directed by state statute to establish county development plans that promote the health, safety, morals, order, convenience, prosperity, and general welfare of county residents. Further, County Planning Commissions are given the authority to conduct studies, investigations, and surveys related to the economic, social, environmental, and physical development of the County.

The Board of Commissioners, as authorized by this statute, has also designated the County Planning Commission as a Metropolitan County Planning Commission. This designation permits the Planning Commission to encourage intergovernmental coordination on all related state and local planning activities and to serve as a liaison to local, regional, and state planning organizations.

The Planning Commission is also responsible for fulfilling the requirements of three other statutory mandates: The first is to review applications by farmers to include or remove their Ottawa County farmland from the State of Michigan’s PA 116 Program (Act 116 of 1974 - Farmland and Open Space Preservation Act, as amended); The second is to review township zoning amendments (Act 184 of 1943 - Township Rural Zoning Act and Act 168 of 1959 - Township Planning Act, as amended); And the third is to review and provide a statement as to whether township or municipal master plans are consistent with the county plan and any adjoining city, village, township, or regional master plans (Act 168 of 1959, Township Planning Act, as amended, and Act 285 of 1931, Municipal Planning Act, as amended).

ACCOMPLISHMENTS

ACCOMPLISHMENT ONE: ASSIST THE PLANNING COMMISSION IN DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING SHORT AND LONG-TERM STRATEGIC PLANNING OBJECTIVES

The Planning and Grants Department continues to assist the Planning Commission in developing and implementing short and long-term strategic goals. The general goals listed below have provided the strategic focus for the Planning Commission’s projects: A. Enhance communication and collaboration between county planning agencies and organizations B. Resolve countywide problems

C. Continue to fulfill statutory obligations D. Continue to develop a proactive, credible leadership role in the community E. Provide local officials with the necessary planning tools and countywide vision to

maintain and improve Ottawa County’s quality of life as it relates to land-use, transportation, and environmental issues.

Staff Outreach Program The Planning and Grants Department continues a Staff Outreach Program that is designed to provide more interaction with local planning commissions. Each departmental planner has been assigned to eight units of government (See Attachment C) and is responsible for attending their planning commission meetings and providing planning assistance when requested. Additionally, the Planning Department has held several On-Staff Planners Meetings for on-staff professional planners who work for local units of government in Ottawa County. This forum provides an opportunity to share ideas and techniques that are being used in communities as well as the ability for the County Planning Department to obtain input on countywide projects that are being considered. Wireless Broadband Initiative In July 2004, the Ottawa County Planning Commission recognized the need for countywide broadband service and appointed a 17-member Wireless Broadband Taskforce (See Attachment D) to study the feasibility of developing a privately-owned countywide wireless broadband network. The Task Force members are comprised of wireless broadband providers, fiber broadband providers, local government representatives, county government officials, local chambers of commerce and economic development group members, as well as interested citizens. A Request-for-Proposal (RFP) was distributed to broadband providers in April, 2005. The RFP was based on a "Regional Deployment Model" that was developed by the Task Force. The Regional Model involves the County facilitating the implementation of the model, assisting local

WiFi antennas in the City of Grand Haven

Page 5

units of government in streamlining regulatory processes and providing locations (publicly owned structures/properties) for broadband equipment, and efforts on behalf of local chambers of commerce to secure anchor tenants for the network. As part of the deployment model, the selected provider(s) were to offer countywide broadband service, as well as free internet access and a leasing fee for local units of government. Ottawa County Broadband Access Network Coordination (BANC) One of the spin-off projects that resulted from the formation of the Ottawa County Wireless Task Force was an initiative to form a Broadband Access Network Coordination (BANC) group in West Michigan. Similar to a BANC formed in the San Francisco Bay Area, the West Michigan BANC will be designed to prevent and/or reduce interference problems among fixed wireless operators in Ottawa, Kent, Muskegon, and Allegan Counties. Because of the increasing numbers of new wireless operators in the region, it is in the best interest of these companies to actively participate in the BANC. By doing so, they will be able to maintain a high level of network reliability, spectrum efficiency, and customer satisfaction. The Planning and Grants Department has promoted the BANC concept to generate private sector interest in this initiative. The promotional efforts have been successful, and planning staff will soon be transferring administrative responsibilities to a private sector provider who will oversee the administration of the BANC project in the future. A website that is being developed by the provider will allow other wireless providers to add and review pertinent technical information related to wireless networks in the County. This will improve their ability to reduce interference and ensure that member networks are able to provide the highest possible level of wireless service to our residents. Urban Smart Growth Demonstration Project

In November 2004, the Ottawa County Planning Commission selected the City of Hudsonville to participate in the Urban Smart Growth Demonstration Project. The project is designed to enhance the vibrancy, livability, and aesthetic character of an urban community. Through a collaborative partnership with Ottawa County, a complete rewrite of Hudsonville's Master Plan and Zoning Ordinance will occur, as well as the implementation of programs to enhance "community image" and the use of digital rendering technology in the community planning process.

A Request-for-Proposal (RFP) was distributed in March 2005 for the purpose of hiring an agency to develop a preferred architectural style for the City of Hudsonville and to create a Design Elements Portfolio. The Design Elements Portfolio will be developed to provide an extensive array of graphic illustrations based on the design elements of the final architectural style. This portfolio will be developed in such a manner that its contents can be easily incorporated in the City of Hudsonville's Master Plan and Zoning Ordinance. The architectural firm of Nederveld Associates Inc. was selected to perform this work. As part of the Urban Smart Growth Demonstration Project, the City of Hudsonville and Ottawa County will also be working with the Landscape Architecture Program at Michigan State

Page 6

University (MSU). This is part of the University's Small Town Design Initiative to develop digital renderings to realistically illustrate how the architectural design elements that are created by Nederveld Associates will appear in the community. In addition to digital renderings, MSU will prepare conceptual drawings for a proposed "Downtown Hudsonville" based on the architectural style. These drawings will illustrate potential design concepts that can breathe new life into the existing downtown area. The drawings will also include conceptual street layouts, building designs, and recreational amenities. M-104 Corridor Study In the Fall of 2004, the M-104 Corridor Study was completed. The study area included the entire length of M-104 from the I-96 intersection (Nunica Exit) to US-31. Project partners included Spring Lake Village, Spring Lake Township, Crockery Township, Ottawa County, the West Michigan Regional Planning Commission, the Ottawa County Road Commission, and the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT). The study provided short and long-term recommendations for access management, aesthetic enhancements, right-of-way preservation, and corridor management. Following the completion of the Study, the Planning Department was made aware of a large development that was being planned in one of the study’s recommended tree preservation areas in the corridor. Over 300 trees along M-104 were originally targeted for removal. The Planning Department coordinated a meeting with Crockery Township, MDOT officials, and the developers to discuss tree preservation options. As a result of this meeting and a number of revisions to the engineering plan, over 250 of the 300 trees slated for removal will now be preserved. Countywide Corridor Plan The Planning Department initiated the development of a Countywide Corridor Plan in early 2005. The purpose of this plan is to identify and prioritize north/south and east/west corridors across the county that should be studied for potential future expansions, aesthetic preservation, land-use changes, capital improvements, and improved access management. These studies will be similar to the North/South (48th Avenue) and M-104 Corridor Studies that have already been completed. The corridors identified in the plan are categorized into four areas: primary, local, aesthetic preservation, and legacy corridors. Input regarding the proposed plan is being gathered from transportation planners at the Michigan Department of Transportation and the three metropolitan planning organizations in Ottawa County. Once the transportation agencies complete their reviews of the proposed Plan, the Planning Department will meet with leaders from local units of government to obtain their input. Lakeshore Drive & Stanton Street Non-Motorized Pathway One of the major recommendations of the Countywide Non-Motorized Pathways Plan was the construction of four foot wide shoulders along the entire length of Lakeshore Drive (19 miles).

M-104 Corridor Study Recommendations

Page 7

In the Summer of 2004, the Planning Department, in conjunction with the Parks Department, coordinated the completion of the first phase of this project which covered the area of Lakeshore

Drive between Hayes and Fillmore Streets. This past Spring, the Planning and Parks Departments completed fund-raising efforts for the second phase of this project which covered Lakeshore Drive from Fillmore Street to Croswell Street. When the second phase of the project is completed, nearly nine miles of Lakeshore Drive will have four foot paved shoulders.

Ottawa County Trails Committee The Ottawa County Planning Commission’s Ottawa County Trails Committee (See Attachment E-1) is divided into four regional subcommittees (See Attachment E-2). The Friends Committee is responsible for promoting an interconnected, countywide pathway system, building a consensus for implementation of the Non-motorized Pathway Plan, and identifying funding and grant opportunities to construct the recommended pathways. The Planning Department has been working to develop a long-term Capital Fundraising Plan to assist with the construction of nearly 180 miles of recommended pathways in the Countywide Non-Motorized Pathways Plan. Standard Colors and Terminology for Master Plans and Zoning Maps The Ottawa County Planning Department has been working with local units of government to encourage the adoption of Standard Colors and Terminology for Master Plans and Zoning Maps (See Attachment F1- F4) in the County. The benefits of standardization include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Reduction of time and effort required to conduct multi-jurisdictional studies (e.g. transportation, watershed, etc), potentially reducing study preparation costs by requiring less time to be spent researching and analyzing zoning and future land use maps for each unit of government

• Improved ability to develop community-wide programs (i.e. purchase of development

rights, greenway plans, etc.) because agricultural zoned lands or park lands are visually depicted in a standard format in each community

• Ability to easily view commercial, retail, and industrial properties across the county on a

single map. Adoption of the proposed standards will not change density, use, or any other local zoning ordinance and comprehensive land use plan requirements that have been adopted by local units of government. At this time last year, only Georgetown Township had adopted the recommended standards. Since the terminology in zoning ordinances and comprehensive plans cannot be changed without a public hearing, many local units are now adopting the proposed

Lakeshore Drive 4-foot paved shoulder

Page 8

standards as their zoning ordinances and master plans are formally updated. This allows the local governmental units to hold a single public hearing rather than one for each issue, saving local officials time and monetary resources . The following local units of governments have either adopted all or a portion of the standards and/or have expressed a willingness to adopt the standards:

Spring Lake Township (Zoning and Master Plan Colors) Tallmadge Township (Zoning and Master Plan Colors) Grand Haven Township (Zoning Colors and Terminology) Jamestown Township (Zoning Colors and Terminology) Georgetown Township (Master Plan Colors and Terminology) Crockery Township (Master Plan Colors and Terminology) City of Coopersville (Intend to Adopt) City of Ferrysburg (Intend to Adopt) City of Hudsonville (Intend to Adopt) Polkton Township (Intend to Adopt) Village of Spring Lake (Intend to Adopt) Wright Township (Intend to Adopt)

Road Salt Commission/Road Salt Monitoring Program The Road Salt Commission completed Recommendations for Salt Management in August, 2004. The plan recommends a 75 % reduction in road salt usage in specially designated environmentally sensitive areas of the County and a 25 % reduction in overall road salt usage over the next five years.

In order to accomplish these goals, the Ottawa County Road Commission adopted a Salt Management Plan in the Fall of 2004. The implementation of the Plan began in the Winter of 2004-2005. As part of this Plan, the Road Commission increased its use of alternative anti-icing and de-icing products, adopted new salting techniques to reduce salt usage, and established a training program for salt truck operators.

In order to evaluate the progress of the Salt Management Plan, the Planning Department, Ottawa County Health Department, and Ottawa County MSU Extension developed a Road Salt Monitoring Program. Under this program, 48 groundwater monitoring wells were installed at 12 locations across the County. Additionally, groundwater surrounding the root systems of blueberry bushes as well as blueberry bush branches are being tested for salt content and damage. Rural Transit Services Report Ottawa County was asked to become the pass-through agency for two rural transit grants that presently provide rides for the elderly, disabled, and Work First recipients in areas outside of Holland and Grand Haven.

These two Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) grants - Specialized Services and Transportation to Work (formerly Project Zero) – were previously administered by Harbor Transit in Grand Haven. Because of time and personnel constraints, Harbor Transit was not able to continue providing that service. As a result, MDOT and rural transit advocates requested that Ottawa County consider administering these grants to ensure that funding continued for rural transit services. The Planning and Grants Department completed a Rural Transit Services Report to determine whether the County should become the pass-through agency for these grants or whether a separate third party entity should be involved. Additionally, the Planning Department examined whether it would be advantageous and cost-effective for the County to create a transit authority for rural areas of the county.

Based on the findings of the Rural Transit Services Report, the County agreed to become the pass-through agency to administer the Specialized Services and Transportation to Work Grants. The report also determined that further information was needed before a recommendation could be made regarding whether the County should become a transit agency. Therefore, the Planning and Grants Department has developed an action plan and timetable to further study transit needs and the feasibility of providing

expanded transit services. The actions steps and timeline for this endeavor are as follows:

• Apply for an Service Development and New Technologies (SDNT) Grant to conduct a Transit Feasibility Study (February 2006)

• Initiate a Transit Feasibility Study if the SDNT Grant is approved (Summer 2007) • Evaluate the Transit Feasibility Study recommendations (January 2008) • If expanded rural transit services are deemed to be needed and feasible, apply for a

subsequent SDNT Grant to conduct a Transit Agency Implementation Study (February 2008)

• Initiate a Transit Agency Implementation Study if a subsequent SDNT Grant is approved (Summer 2009)

• Evaluate the Transit Agency Implementation Study recommendations (January 2010) • If a countywide transit agency is deemed to be cost-effective, apply for Transit

Agency Status (February 2010) Lakeshore Drive Tree Inventory In response to concerns expressed by county residents regarding the health of sugar maple trees along Lakeshore Drive, the Planning and Parks Departments initiated the development of a tree replacement plan. The sugar maples, many of which are estimated to be more than eighty years old, are a recognizable and important natural feature along this and other corridors in the County. With the assistance of the Ottawa Soil and Conservation District, the Planning Department inventoried the rows of sugar maples along Lakeshore Drive and Stanton Street near Pigeon Creek Park. As part of this inventory, the locations of the trees were recorded using Global Position System equipment. The caliper of the trees was recorded as well as the distance

Page 10

between the trees and the distance of the trees from the pavement. The health of the trees was also evaluated, and results showed that a high number of the trees along Lakeshore Drive were in poor or failing health. The Ottawa County Road Commission has agreed to allow trees in poor health to be replaced in the same location as long as the proposed replacement is approved by staff. The development of a tree replacement plan has been delayed in order to include it in a proposed comprehensive corridor study of Lakeshore Drive. The Manure Scratch-N-Sniff was created to provide information to dispel misconceptions about country living while also providing background about the importance of farming operations, standard farm practices, and Right-to-Farm laws. The brochure continues to be replicated in other areas of the Country and still generates national and international media stories. Citizen Planner The Ottawa County Planning Commission, in collaboration with Ottawa MSU-Extension, hosted Michigan State University Extension’s, “Citizen Planner Program” in the winter of 2005. Citizen Planner utilizes the services of MSU Extension specialists, university faculty, professional planners, and land-use specialists to provide practical, hands on learning experience. Their experience is utilized to equip local community leaders with knowledge and leadership skills to perform their duties more effectively and responsibly. Approximately 30 citizen planners from Ottawa County earned Certificates of Competency this year. The curriculum was comprised of the following courses:

a. Introduction to Planning and Zoning b. Legal Foundations c. Roles and Responsibilities (Part 1) d. Roles and Responsibilities (Part 2) e. Plan Implementation and Development Controls f. Best Practices for Innovative Planning and Zoning g. The Art of Community Planning h. Private Property Rights/Taking Issues i. Working Across Community Boundaries/Coordinated Planning Act

New Planning Commissioner Training Packets The Planning Department continues to provide New Planning Commissioner Training Packets through the department website. This packet includes information that assists new planning commissioners with their new roles and responsibilities. It also answers technical questions

Page 11

regarding rules-of-order and the legal aspects of planning and zoning. From May of 2004 to May of 2005, 948 New Planning Commissioner Training Packets were downloaded from our website. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Over the past year the Planning Department has continuously increased its use of GIS. GIS has proven effective in providing detailed analyses of rezoning requests, master plan reviews, road salt assessments, and traffic corridor studies. It has also enabled the Planning Department to create Standardized Ordinance Terminology and Map Colors for Local Master Plans and Zoning Ordinances. As the Department continues to utilize GIS for many of its projects, the planning staff has developed multiple data sets and map layers that were not previously available. Some of the data sets and map layers that planning staff have developed and/or assisted in developing over the past year include the following:

a. Road Salt Environmentally Sensitive Area b. Road Salt Monitoring Locations c. Sugar Maple Tree Inventory on Lakeshore Drive and Stanton Street d. Countywide Corridor Plan e. Ottawa County Traffic Counts f. Trend Analysis of Traffic Volume on Ottawa County Roads g. All Publicly Owned Property and Structures h. Regional Airports

Collaborative Planning Initiatives The Ottawa County Planning and Grants Department was asked to participate in two local Collaborative Planning Initiatives in 2005. These initiatives were established by local officials and are a noteworthy example of multi-jurisdictional collaboration and planning. Additional information regarding these endeavors is provided below:

The City of Coopersville and Polkton Township are working together to identify planning issues and projects that can be addressed jointly between the two municipalities. Wright Township officials have indicated that they will also participate in joint projects that have the potential to directly impact or involve areas of their township. The Planning and Grants Department has been invited to facilitate this multi-jurisdictional process. The North Bank Sustainable Communities group consists of representatives from the Village of Spring Lake, City of Ferrysburg, Spring Lake Township, and Crockery Township. This group has been working to identify and address planning issues that transcend their jurisdictional boundaries. The Planning and Grants Department has been invited to facilitate some of the multi-jurisdictional strategic planning sessions.

Planning Department Database In an effort to improve the efficiency and functionality of its extensive database listing community contacts in Ottawa, Allegan, Muskegon, Kent, and Newaygo Counties, the Planning Department converted its former Lotus Approach Database to a Microsoft Access Database platform. Additionally, comprehensive changes were made to the database format. These changes will improve the Department's ability to distribute mass mailings, meeting notifications, and committee materials. ACCOMPLISHMENT TWO: PROVIDE STRATEGIC PLANNING SERVICES TO

ASSIST IN MAXIMIZING THE EFFICIENCY, EFFECTIVENESS, AND OVERALL PERFORMANCE OF COUNTY PROGRAMS AND CONDUCT OUTCOME-BASED EVALUATIONS FOR EACH COUNTY PROGRAM ON A ROTATING BASIS, EVERY FIVE YEARS AT MINIMUM.

The Planning and Grants Department continues to assist in the development of strategic plans and evaluations for county programs to maximize their efficiency, effectiveness, and overall performance. Statistical program evaluations will be completed on a rotating basis, every five years at minimum. The administration and oversight of the strategic planning process and the development of program evaluation components will be performed by the Ottawa County Planning and Grants Department. Each Strategic Plan will include the following items:

1. Strategic Outline – This outline will provide a departmental vision statement. It will also list the target population for whom the department provides services, the specific characteristics of the target population, the goals and objectives that clearly articulate desired outcomes for the target population, the actions that are or will be undertaken to accomplish the goals, and the quantifiable measures of program performance. The quantifiable measures shall include outcome-based data (i.e. actual performance related to goals and objectives) and may include output-based data (i.e. activities) and self-reported data (i.e. surveys).

2. Program and Data Flow Analysis – This analysis will include a diagram listing the specific components of each departmental program and the sequential flow of program components from the first stage of the program to the last. The diagram will identify the staff position responsible for each program component and also list the type of data that will be collected during each of the program components.

3. Database Design – The database design will include a diagram that outlines the relational database model that will be used to store data. It will also identify the types of data that will be stored in each database, as well as staff positions responsible for collecting the data.

4. Data Collection Tools – Data collection tools (i.e. surveys, forms, questionnaires) will be developed.

5. Organization and Workflow Analysis – This analysis will include a diagram listing the department’s organizational structure and the general duties (including specific data collection and management duties) assigned to each position.

Probation and Community Service Corrections – Probation Office g. Probation and Community Service Corrections – Community Service Office h. Jail Inmate Reentry Committee

Mental Health Point-In-Time Study The Planning Department completed a Mental Health Point-in-Time Study for individuals that were involved in the criminal justice system between November 1, 2004 and January 31, 2005. The primary purpose of the study was to determine the number of individuals with mental health issues, the number being diverted, and other factors that would provide information about mental health and its impact on the criminal justice system. ACCOMPLISHMENT THREE: PROVIDE DATA THAT CAN BE USED BY

DEPARTMENTS, AGENCIES, LOCAL LEADERS, AND CITIZENS TO ASSESS QUALITY-OF-LIFE IN OTTAWA COUNTY AND TO COMPLETE GRANT APPLICATIONS.

Data Book The Planning and Grants Department continues its effort to publish an extensive Data Book that will provide a variety of statistics, facts, and community indicators regarding Ottawa County’s quality-of-life. The Data Book will be comprised of a series of topical data books that will include Environment, Infrastructure, Economic, Public Safety, Commercial/Residential Development, and Miscellaneous (i.e. education, agriculture, recreation, politics, taxation, and organizations). Data for comparable counties and the State of Michigan are included in the Data Books to provide an opportunity to conduct benchmark comparisons. The Health and Demographics Sections have been completed and preparation on the Environmental Section of the Data Book began in 2004. Each completed data book is available for download in a portable document format (pdf) on the Planning and Grants Department website.

Page 14

ACCOMPLISHMENT FOUR: MAXIMIZE GRANTMANSHIP EFFORTS TO ENSURE THAT GRANT FUNDING IS UTILIZED WHENEVER POSSIBLE AND TO ENSURE THAT GRANT APPLICATIONS ARE PROCESSED CONSISTENTLY WITH THE COUNTY’S ADMINISTRATIVE RULE FOR GRANTS.

The administration and oversight of grant-making efforts and allocated funds from State and Federal agencies are performed by the Ottawa County Planning and Grants Department. The Department’s grantsmanship activities included administering, procuring, and/or processing more than $9.2 in grant funding for the County in 2004/2005. The Department also administered and processed more than $1.8 in direct funding allocations from state and federal agencies (See Attachments G1 –G3). The Department is continuing to work with MIS to develop a grants management database that will be viewable from The Front Page in Lotus Notes. This database is being designed to include grant contact information, award amounts, project descriptions, project timelines, project reporting dates, and other pertinent grant information for all grants processed in the County. Users of the database will be able to review, search, sort, and print a summary of all grants or scroll through individual grants to review and print specific details. The anticipated completion date for the database is October 1, 2005. ACCOMPLISHMENT FIVE: PROVIDE OTHER DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES

WITH ASSISTANCE IN THE AREAS OF BASIC RESEARCH, APPLIED RESEARCH, LEGISLATIVE ANALYSIS, TECHNICAL REPORT COMPILATION, AND PROGRAM SUPPORT.

The Planning and Grants Department provided research, as well as administrative, planning, and statistical assistance to the County in several areas. These included research, legislative analysis, data collection and dissemination, analysis of policy and legislation, program administration, drafting resolutions, writing technical reports, preparing documents, writing correspondence, and attending outside agency meetings The Planning and Grants Department completed and submitted a several hundred page Pre- Disaster Mitigation (PDM) Grant to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to apply for $6,777,297 in funding for the acquisition of flood prone properties in Robinson Township along the Grand River. The grant was comprised of sixty parcels in the Van Lopik and Limberlost neighborhoods that have been flooded twelve times in the last ten years. The grant money will be used to purchase the properties and remove the structures creating a natural setting that future flood waters will not damage. Numerous meeting with property owners, Township officials, and various County departments were needed to complete this grant application. The outcome of these meetings was 100% participation by the property owners in the two subdivisions. The PDM Grant had been approved and is in the Pre-Award phase of the grant process.

Survey/Remonumentation Program - The Department provides administrative oversight for the Survey and Remonumentation Grant Program and the Remonumentation Committee (See Attachment H-1). In conjunction with the County Surveyor, the Planning Department will complete the Remonumentation of all corners by the end of 2005. The next phase of the program - obtaining Global Positioning System (GPS) Coordinates for all the corners – will begin in 2006. The Planning Department has also completed a plan to purchase four stationary GPS receiver antennas, also known as Continuously Operating Reference System (CORS) stations, to improve the ability of surveyors to conduct their jobs. Finally, the County Administrator, Planning Department, and County Lobbyists have been working with legislators and state department officials to replace outdated standards for setting GPS coordinates on corners. Because the new standards would significantly reduce the amount of time needed to establish GPS coordinates, surveyors would spend less time in streets and roads and thereby improve their safety. Also, the reduced time would result in cost savings for county and state government. An overview of the number of Remonumentation Corners that have been completed by year and local unit of government is provided in Attachments H-2. An index map outlining a grid system with the completed corners is provided in Attachment H-3. The Department also provides administrative oversight and/or support for the following contracts and programs:

a. Ottawa County Economic Development Office (OCEDO) (See Attachment I) b. West Michigan Regional Planning Commission (WMRPC - Region 8) c. Georgetown Seniors (See Attachment J)

CLOSING It is well known that Ottawa County is the most diverse county in the State of Michigan. It is the largest and most varied agricultural producer in the state. It enjoys one of the best economic growth rates in the state which has resulted in one of the lowest unemployment rates. It also has attained the lowest county millage rate in the state. Further, Ottawa County has a beautiful array of natural features including the Lake Michigan shoreline and the Grand River. As a result of all these attributes, Ottawa County is the fastest growing of Michigan counties with a population greater than 200,000. Unlike most counties which contend with growth issues from a single urban center, Ottawa County contends with the growth issues of three metropolitan centers (Grand Rapids, Holland/Zeeland, Muskegon/Tri Cities) as well as one significant, urbanizing center (Allendale). The Planning and Grants Department has spent a substantial amount of time developing and implementing programs and projects designed to manage and plan for this growth, as well as developing evaluation criteria to evaluate programs that impact the quality-of-life for Ottawa County citizens. As evidenced by our recent projects, the Department has also made a concerted effort to develop collaborative partnerships to enhance our planning initiatives. The Department’s staff members have been diligent and persevering. In closing, it is fitting to recognize the contributions that have been made by the Planning and Grants staff toward achieving our goals and objectives. As in the past, the staff has juggled many projects and maintained a disciplined regiment to complete the workload. The success of projects that have been undertaken and completed are largely the result of their talent and contributions.
