The department has 9 stations, 4 in Pontiac and 5 in Waterford. Station 6 takes care of the east side of Lake Angelus and Station 2 takes care of the west side of Lake Angelus 2. Two new fire trucks are ordered and will be received next month. These are the first new fire trucks since 2002. 3. ISO does an important evaluation which effects all of our insurance rates. Waterford Fire currently has a “4” rating which made a very big difference in the rates of insurance in Lake Angelus. A new rating may be announced soon. 4. New “push and pull” CPR machines are in every ambulance 5. Grant writing has been very important for the department. The department is hoping for a one-year Safer Grant extension to keep the 39 fire fighters hired using this grant. 6. Water supply for Lake Angelus is reviewed and changes are made. Every truck has the Lake Angelus water plan. 7. There was discussion about possible discrepancies in the Lake Angelus Police report and the Waterford Fire report on the number of dispatches. Both parties agreed this needs to be addressed. Sometimes a citizen will call the LAPD rather than 911. Sometimes there are cancellations. Waterford and the LAPD will try to resolve these discrepancies and provide citizens with the correct party to call for the correct problem. And to make sure Oakland County Dispatch, Waterford Fire, and Lake Angelus agree. Resident/Mayoral Comments, pending Actions: 1. Kudos on the Little Free Library, Debbie and Paul McDowell 2. NoHaz event was at Oxford Middle School on April 28th. Gretchen Hurlburt invites participation in the next NoHaz event, June 23, 2018 at Oakland University 3. No news is good news on Senate Bills 626 and 627 Page 2 of 6 4. Attorney Fisher and Building Official Brian Keesey are working with Brad and Jay Hibbard regarding the vacation of a City easement in Pontiac and ramifications for Lake Angelus. A deed restriction or purchase has been suggested. 5. Many thanks on berm clean-up, Joe Hilger. 6. Speed limits are not being reduced on gravel roads. 7. Heidi Hoyles requested that water skiers be able to go at no wake speed on weekdays to the waterski course at 7a.m. for the 2018 season. Joe Hilger so moved, Gary Parlove seconded and the motion passed unanimously. 8. Joe Hilger will check on getting faucets and pipes working at the tennis courts and report next meeting.

Rebecca List and Mark Darby are long time experienced officers. Another new hire will be soon after background check is completed. Projects: grant for vests (some expired), new Tahoe ordered, vehicles being repaired, review of defibrillators, fire extinguisher updating, boat and dock in, training on CPR, firearms.

Boating rules need to be published in angelus. For example, under state law not having an MC# is a misdemeanor. As a city in the state of Michigan we are bound to enforce state laws. Reminder: to operate a boat on Lake Angelus boaters need a 2019, 2020, or 2021 sticker. It is recommended that the LAPD keep a log in the boat and in the station to record warnings to boaters. Then a written warning can be made by Chief Farley. Dennis Mitchell moved to extend the meeting by one hour to 10:00 p.m. Joe Hilger seconded and the motion passed unanimously. A meeting was held with Oakland County Sheriff Dispatch to protest the increase in rates for Lake Angelus. The department refused to offer an alternative. Joe Hilger moved to approve the Sheriff Dispatch Agreement, Dan Jenaras seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. The agreement will be signed and given to Treasurer, Julie Frakes. Page 3 of 6 Building and Permits: New Building and Zoning Applications An electric permit was issued for 1173 N Lake Angelus Road for a septic pump/alarm. A lot split application was submitted for 2175/2177 N Lake Angelus Road. A plumbing permit was issued for 1160 Lake Angelus Shores. A mechanical permit was issued for 2360 Lake Angelus Lane. A mechanical permit was issued for 2200 Lake Angelus Shores. A building permit was issued for 2445 N Lake Angelus Road for the new home. Soil erosion permits will be pulled before construction on the home can begin. The Jaegar seawall SLU will need to be noticed. Brian Keesey will notice. Ongoing Building and Zoning Activity 1. 355 Gray Woods Lane – Incarnati Addition Work is continuing in accordance with plans. There was an inquiry about the stonework that has been arranged on the lawn – the stone is being installed on the interior of the structure and is only being temporarily staged outside for material selections. The Building Official will continue to monitor the site. 2. 385 Gray Woods Lane – Residence Work is continuing as expected. The Building Official has been discussing the project with the architect and builder and has conducted a pre-rough walkthrough to give feedback to the builder on expected alterations/requirements. 3. 525 Gray Woods Lane – Greenlee Residence Final C of O is contingent upon several railings that have yet to be installed and approved by the Building Official. The temporary dock, as installed last year, was ruled not in compliance with the Zoning Ordinance by the ZBA. The owner’s representatives have filed an appeal of this decision with the courts. We are also anticipating a variance application to be submitted by the owner’s representatives, although the basis/context for the variance request is unknown at this time. There are some drain pipe problems which need to be addressed. 4. 2360 Lake Angelus Lane – Matisse Residence Progress continues to be made on the interior and exterior of the home. Work is as expected. 5. 2384 Lake Angelus Lane – Haines Dredging We are in receipt of a dredging permit from the DEQ, in which approximately 25 yards of soil will be removed from the lake bed and will be placed above the seawall, where it eroded from in the first place. As this project will not result in changes to the seawall or changes in the natural grade of the property within the 50-foot setback, we do not find Special Land Use approval is required. 6. 2175/2177 N Lake Angelus Road – Howlett Property We have begun to process the requested land division, which will divide a single property with two homes on it into three distinct properties. The properties will each comply with the lot width standards for properties in the City, but we need additional information to complete the request. 7. 2405 N Lake Angelus Road – Johnson Property We continue to hold the site completion bond until we can confirm the site plan has been implemented and all site elements have been inspected. 8. 2445 N Lake Angelus Road – Fair Residence The Building Official has approved the building plans for the new home. We have requested the submission of a soil erosion permit application; once we are in receipt of this and protections have been put in place, construction may begin. 9. 1160 Lake Angelus Shores – Welsh Residence Interior renovations are continuing as expected. 10. 2204 Lake Angelus Shores – Roth Residence Construction is ongoing in accordance with the plans. Page 4 of 6 Administrative Approvals- We have been in communication with the owner of 2120 Lake Angelus Shores regarding the installation of privacy screens on an existing deck. There are no compliance issues with the proposal, so we have approved her plans from a zoning perspective. General Activity and Open Planning Items 1. Additional progress has been made on the revised lakefront setback ordinance draft, and the Planning Commission is coming close to a final draft. We have provided map information that was requested to analyze some situations the ordinance should address and will discuss again later this month. 2. We presented a draft of the Construction Code of Conduct one-pager that the Planning Commission previously discussed, and several amendments were requested. This, too, will be on the May Planning Commission agenda. 3. Now that it is back on the market for sale, we have taken several calls on parties interested in the Fisher property on Lake Angelus Road regarding zoning restrictions applicable to the property. We will continue to monitor activity and ensure that any change to the property is compliant from an ordinance standpoint. In addition to the project above, the following items require additional follow-up or may be discussed for future consideration: 1. Lake-side setbacks – Planning Commission to review. 2. Dock Regulations – As requested by Zoning Board of Appeals. 3. Boat launch seawall – awaiting information from American Marine. 4. Construction Code of Conduct / Policies – Planning Commission to review. 5. Building bulk standards / bonus room standards – Planning Commission to review. 6. Fee schedule – Analysis ongoing. 7. Lighting Standards – Analysis ongoing. 8. Noise nuisances – Analysis ongoing. 9. Chapter 1220 – outdated Michigan Planning and Zoning act references. Will be addressed concurrently with other amendments because they do not require significant discussion. 10. Short-term rentals – analysis ongoing. The Greenlee dock, 1450 square feet of dock was put in during the 2017 season, violating the Lake Angelus dock ordinance. A letter was sent to the Greenlees and ignored. Much legal expense has already been expended and will continue to need to be expended regarding this matter. Dennis Mitchell moved to extend the meeting by 1 hour to 11:30 p.m. Gary Parlove seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Gary Parlove moved to allow 950 square feet of dock, 750 for the dock and 200 for the already existing platform as long as there are no future law suits regarding docks by the Greenlees. Dan Jenaras seconded the motion and the motion passed unanimously. A time limit by which the Greenlees must respond will be given by Attorney Fisher after which fines for violation will be issued.
