Dear Mayor, DDA Director. Chairperson

and Fellow ConU11issioners:
It has been my privilege and honor to have served on the DDA Board si nce 2005, during which
time the city business district has prospered. I have been able to learn and participate with some of
Wyandotte's best and brightest during that time period. I would like to thank former Mayor James
DeSana for appointing me and to Mayor Peterson for re-appointing me.
I have recently been advised that my most recent term has expired. I have decided that I would
like to ask Mayor Peterson not to re-appoint me to a new term. My business interests are consuming a
growing percentage of my available time.
I have been the "residential" board member for the district. I remain hopeful that the Board will
allocate resources to beautify and better maintain the city parking lots abutting Van Alystyne Street in
the future.
Further, I believe it is important the city and future DDA Boards protect DDA revenue streams
from erosion, and the DDA's powers under the state statute remain intact. Lastly, always recogni ze the
valuable resource that is the WBA and work to enhance that relationship.
Very truly yours,
GLG:cg

Dear Mayor Peterson,
Ive been a Wyandotte resident since 2001 and moved to Biddle with my husband to
renovate Glow Fish Studios in 2012. We opened our doors in March 2013 and adopted
our son that July. We brought him home the first day of the Wyandotte Art Fair. Thank
goodness for friends and family!
My Great Grandpa Joe owned a shoe shop on 17th and Eureka and his son, my
Grandpa Joe owned Derers Wine and Beer next door. My Grandpa also helped start
Wyandotte Alarm Co. and would fix watches for Milkins Jewelers. Who would have
known that I would follow in my families footsteps after teaching for twelve years?
We currently run Glow Fish Studios, an art and gift store, and live above it. We love
living in the city and enjoy all the conveniences it offers. There have been many
changes in the short time that we have moved downtown and I hope there are many
more. This is a great city and we are very pleased to be raising our son here. He is a
regular at Sanders for peanut butter cups and Nannas Kitchen for grilled cheese
sandwiches.
Im actively involved in the Wyandotte Business Association and have served on its
board. I am also a regular attendee at the Downriver Development Authority meetings
and have worked with them on several projects in the past.
My education/work background:
Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with a minor in physics from Wayne State

2 masters degrees in administration from Concordia University

BACKGROUND: Based on Wyandotte's population the City receives Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) dollars through Wayne County. The County receives grant dollars via the Housing Urban Development
(HUD). The City is anticipating receiving approximately $137,397 in funding. In the past, these funds have been
used for street improvements, youth assistance, housing rehabilitation and administrative costs to run the program.
In order to receive these funds, two (2) public hearings are required to seek input from the public. The Engineering
Department is requesting the hearings be held on February 13, and February 27, 2017. These public hearings will
provide an opportunity for public comment.
The application for this grant program is due on March 1, 2017.
STRATEGIC PLAN/GOALS: We are committed to maintaining and developing excellent neighborhoods by

matching tools and efforts to the conditions in city neighborhoods; tracking infrastructure conditions in all
neighborhoods. The city will work to establish and sustain the quality of street lighting, sidewalks, curbs, gutters
and pavement; continuing neighborhood renewal projects, where needed, in order to revitalize structures and
infrastructures in residential and commercial areas.
ACTION REOUESTED: Adopt a Resolution concurring with the City Engineer to set a public hearing for
February 13, 2017.
BUDGET IMPLICATIONS & ACCOUNT NUMBER: The grant allows for reimbursement of the Citymomes
spent as part of the CDBG Program.
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN: Hold public hearing on February 13, 2017, and February 27, 2017.

CITY OF WYANDOTTE
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
A Public Hearing will be held immediately following the regular session of the Mayor and
Council on Monday, February 13, 2017, at 7:00 P.M. in the Council Chambers of the Wyandotte
City Hall, 3200 Biddle Avenue, Wyandotte, Michigan. Purpose of the Hearing is to receive
suggestions or comments for the 2017 Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG).
The City of Wyandotte expects to receive an estimated $137,397 in CDBG funding. In addition,
the City also plans to request Housing Rehabilitation funds in the amount of $20,000. Program
Income is often generated from the Housing Rehabilitation Program as houses sell and loans
are repaid. We anticipate received approximately $20,000 in Program Income to be generated
during the 2017 Program Year. If Program Income is generated, it will be allocated back to the
Housing Rehabilitation Program to assist additional homeowners.
The public should note that these figures are an estimate based upon expected allocations to
the program. If changes need to be made based on the final allocation received from HUD by
Wayne County, then a proportional reduction or increase for all projects will occur.
The primary objectives of the CDBG Program are to assist low to moderate income families
directly or provide benefits in areas where 51 % of the residents are low to moderate income,
such as replacing the urban infrastructure of streets, improve recreational facilities and
programs and assist in meeting special needs of the physically disabled.
Citizen comments are welcome. Individuals with disabilities who require special
accommodations, auxiliary aids or services to respond to this notice should contact the City
Clerk's Office at 734-324-4563. Written comments may be sent to the City Clerk 3200 Biddle
Avenue, Wyandotte, Michigan 48192. Responses will be accepted until Monday, February 13,
2017.

9. Downtown Plantings Update: There was much discussion on potential plantings and expansion of
the Commissions planted areas. Both planter pots and free-standing hanging baskets were
anticipated. Noel requested that the topic of Spring-Clean Up be considered on the March agenda,
which was agreed to by consensus. Other follow-up activities include:
a. John recommended that the Commissioners take informal tours of the downtown area to identify
and catalog the open plaza spaces that would be appropriate for multiple large plant pot
placements and/or free-standing hanging baskets. These plaza spaces will be reviewed at the
Commissions March meeting. It was noted that the 2 existing free-standing hanging may need to
be relocated if the Patronicity Campaign is successful, and their current location is re-designed.

meeting to discussion landscape and grounds maintenance issues or concerns. John will contact
Mr. Ellison to make arrangements.

plantings to be the same in the tree boxes on Biddle. John will contact Engineering to inquire and
report back.
10. Old Business: There was no Old Business to report.
11. New Business:

a. Patronicity Campaign: Noel reviewed the proposal and renderings for the citys entry into the
Patronicity Campaign (MEDC?). There is a fund-raising goal of $50,000 between March 1-31,
with matching funds if the fund-raiser is successful within the 30-day window. The funds will be
spent to re-design the grounds of city hall as a people-friendly outdoor gathering space. The
campaign is being conducted by the DDA. There was a motion by Noel, seconded by John, that
the Beautification Commission support and promote the Patronicity Campaign in the
Commissions social media. The motion was approved. Noel will contact Andrea to coordinate
the promotion.
b. Area to Plant at City Hall for Spring Dig-In: There was discussion regarding spaces along the
north foundation of city hall for plantings by the Beautification Commission during the Spring Dig-
In. It is a very shady area. Noel will form a sub-committee to conduct an on-site review for
appropriate plant materials for that space with report back in March.
12. Round-Table Reports and Announcements: There were no Round-Table Reports or Announcements.
