Committee backs contract for Onekama zoning services, first-year fee $16,937
Summary
Manistee County's Ways & Means Committee recommended approval of a contract to provide Level II zoning services to the Village of Onekama, with a first-year fee of $16,937.00 and a 3% annual increase in subsequent years.
Planning Director Katie Gruenberg presented the proposed Agreement for Contract Services between Manistee County and the Village of Onekama, describing Onekama’s selection of Level II zoning services under the county’s service schedule. The contract enumerates a first-year total service fee of $16,937.00 (comprised of Level II service fees and related appendices) and establishes a 3% annual increase in subsequent years.
The committee moved to recommend approval of the zoning agreement “as presented”; the motion (moved by Jeff Dontz; seconded by Eric Gustad) carried with the members present voting aye. Appendix B to the packet lists detailed scope-of-service options (Level I, II, III), the Level II responsibilities, and per-item fee breakdowns.
If the Board of Commissioners approves the recommendation, Manistee County Planning Department staff will serve as the Village’s Zoning Administrator under the agreed terms, including customer-facing office hours, application processing, mailing/notice services, and invoicing at the stated fee schedule.
