Item E-2
Public Hearing on Zoning Change to Property located at 4720 East
Seedling Mile Road, Grand Island, Nebraska from LLR Large Lot
Residential to B2 General Business (Jose Ramirez)
Council action will take place under Ordinances item F-3.
Staff Contact: Chad Nabity

Council Agenda Memo
From:Regional Planning Commission
Meeting:July 26, 2022
Subject:Change of Zoning from LLR Large Lot Residential to B2
General Business
Presenter(s):Chad Nabity AICP, Regional Planning Director
Background
The owner of property immediately at the northwest corner of Seedling Mile Road and
Gun Barrel Road (Jose Ramirez.) requested that the property be rezoned. Mr. Ramirez
would like to renovate the Harmony Hall Building and use it as a reception hall/ballroom
in a manner consistent with the historic uses of the property. He is requesting that the
property be changed from LLR Large Lot Residential to B2 General Business to facilitate
this change is use, The existing building has been vacant for more than 50 years.
Discussion
At the regular meeting of the Regional Planning Commission, held July 6, 2022 the
above item was considered following a public hearing.
O’Neill opened the public hearing.
Nabity stated the property consist of 3 lots that are currently zoned LLR Large
Lot Residential. The adjacent properties are zoned Large Lot Residential Zone or
Transitional Agriculture Zone. Nabity stated 2 letters were received to protest
against the proposed rezoning change. The letter from Greg Erwin was included
in the packet. A copy of the letter received from Travis and Alicia Wicht to
protest against the proposed rezoning change was entered into the record.
Nabity stated the proposed rezoning request is not consistent with the City’s
Comprehensive Plan and staff is recommending the request be denied.
Jose Ramirez – stated he would like to restore the building into a ballroom.
Ruge stated when Harmony Hall was originally built there was nothing out in the
country and that’s why the dancehall was done. Today there are a lot of homes in
the area and the Comprehensive Plan does not call for it to be zoned commercial.
Ruge said he would not be in favor.
Greg Erwin – 454 N. Gunbarrel Rd - Grand Island, NE - Mr. Erwin stated he is
opposed to the proposed rezoning request. Mr. Erwin lives right across the street
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 13 / 342
from Harmony Hall. Mr Erwin said before purchasing his property 3 years ago he
checked the zoning in the area to make sure nothing like this would happen.
Nabity went on to expand on why staff recommends the request to be denied.
Nabity stated this would be considered spot zoning, there is no B2 in the area, and
it is not consistent with the comprehensive plan. There is no sewer available.
The septic system would work well for a house. The proposed uses would not fit
well without municipal sewer service.
O’Neill closed the public hearing.
A motion was made by Ruge and second by Rainforth to recommend City
Council deny the application for the proposed rezoning request finding
that it is not compatible with the surrounding uses, is not supported by the
Grand Island Future Land Use Map and would appear to be spot zoning.
The motion was carried with eight members voting in favor (O’Neill, Ruge,
Olson, Robb, Monter, Rainforth, Rubio and Randone) and no members voting no
or abstaining.
The memo sent to the planning commission with staff recommendation is
attached for review by Council. Also included are the images Mr. Ramirez
provided for the Planning Commission meeting and copies of correspondence
received by the planning department in regard to this application.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Approve the comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning request as
presented
2.Modify the comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning request to meet the
wishes of the Council
3.Postpone the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council deny the proposed changes as
requested.
Sample Motion
Move to deny the ordinance as presented finding that the proposed changes would not be
in conformance with the future land use map for the City of Grand Island, would not be
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 14 / 342
compatible with the surrounding residential development and could be considered spot
zoning.

COMMISSION:
June 28, 2022

PROPOSAL: This application includes lots 1, 2 and 3 of Schaaf’s Second Subdivision
4720 Seedling Mile Road at the northwest corner of Gunbarrel Road and Seedling Mile
road (Harmony Hall). The property is located within the two-mile extra-territorial zoning
jurisdiction of the City of Grand Island.
The applicant is requesting to change the zoning this property from LLR Large Lot
Residential Zone to B-2 General Business.
OVERVIEW:
Site Analysis
Current zoning designation: LLR: Large Lot Residential.
Intent of zoning district LLR: To provide for a transition from rural to urban
uses, and is generally located on the fringe of the
urban area. This zoning district permits residential
dwellings at a maximum density of two dwelling
units per acre, as well as other open space and
recreational activities.
Permitted and conditional uses: LLR: Agricultural uses, recreational uses,
transitional uses such as: greenhouses and
veterinary clinics and residential uses at a density
of 1 unit per 20,000 square feet.
Future Land Use Map Designation: LM The Low to Medium Residential land use would
encompass residential uses with a density up to 15
dwelling units per acre. City services such as water
and sewer should be provided in areas where
densities exceed one dwelling unit per acre.

Adjacent Properties Analysis
Current zoning designations: East, West North: LLR Large Lot Residential Zone
South: TA-Transitional Agriculture Zone,
Intent of zoning district: LLR: To provide for a transition from rural to urban
uses, and is generally located on the fringe of the
urban area. This zoning district permits residential
dwellings at a maximum density of two dwelling

Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 16 / 342
TA: The intent of this zoning district is to provide for
a transition from rural to urban uses, and is
generally located on the fringe of the urban area.
This zoning district permits both farm and non-farm
dwellings as well as other open space and
recreational activities. The intent of the zoning
district also would allow the limited raising livestock
within certain density requirements.
Permitted and conditional uses: TA: Agricultural uses, recreational uses and
residential uses at a density at a density of 1 unit
per 20 acres. Limited animal agriculture.
LLR: Agricultural uses, recreational uses,
transitional uses such as: greenhouses and
veterinary clinics and residential uses at a density
of 1 unit per 20,000 square feet.
Comprehensive Plan Designation: North, South, West: Designated for future low to
medium density residential development.
East: Transitional Agriculture.
Existing land uses: East: Large Lot Residential
North: Vacant and Large Lot Residential.
South and West: Acreage Residential
VALUATION:
Positive Implications:
Would allow for the restoration of Harmony Hall as a reception hall. This is an historic
structure that has not been maintained. It is has been vacant for decades. Rezoning
would allow the former use to be restored.
Negative Implications:
Uses other than those proposed are allowed in the B-2 zoning district: Potential
uses for the site would include a convenience store, night club/bar, restaurant, and
strip commercial. A copy of the uses allowed in the B-2 Zoning District is attached.
Lack of municipal infrastructure: Sewer is not available to this property. Changing
the zoning on this property at this point would likely encourage additional
development in this area prior to the development of such municipal infrastructure.
The proposed uses would not fit here well without municipal sewer service.
Not consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Land Use Plan: The subject property is
designated for long-term for low to medium
Spot Zoning: This could be challenged as spot zoning since it is not consistent with
the comprehensive plan and applies to only a few properties for the benefit of one
owner.
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 17 / 342
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Regional Planning Commission recommend that the Grand Island City
Council not change the zoning on this site from LLR Large Lot Residential to B-2
General Business.

Subject:Rezoning request concerns: Schaaf's Second Subdivision lots 1, 2, & 3
Mr. Nabity,
My husband and I live at 632 N Gunbarrel Rd, Grand Island, NE 68801 with our 2 young daughters. We were
notified last week that Mr. Jose Ramirez is asking for a tract of land consisting of all of lots 1, 2, 3 Schaaf's
Second Subdivision, Hall County to be rezoned from large lot residential to general business zone.
My husband and I, as well as many other members of this small community to whom we have spoken, are
strongly opposed to this rezoning request and ask that it be denied at the meeting scheduled for July 6th.
We have many concerns about the issues that may arise by changing those lots from residential to business,
including an increase in noise, traffic, and potentially crime. We are a quiet neighborhood and we moved out to
this rural neighborhood to be away from all of the things listed above. As it currently stands, the truck traffic
from the sand plant on Gunbarrel Rd has increased exponentially in recent years and we often have both semi
truck and car traffic that does not obey the posted speed limits and we are concerned that changing the lots
mentioned will only increase these traffic issues further.
We are also curious as to Mr. Ramirez's intentions for the property, as he has told a few different versions of his
plans to various people. One, was to make it an event venue again, another was to make it a bed and breakfast,
and yet another rumor was that he was going to turn it into apartments. Any and all scenarios lead to even more
questions and concerns related to sewer/septic - what are the requirements for business use, specifically his
plans - will city sewer be routed out to the neighborhood and the residents be forced to pay for it due to the
rezoning?
Lastly, there are concerns that rezoning those lots to business will open up the neighborhood to additional
rezoning requests and reduce the rural atmosphere many of us moved to this area specifically to find.
Changing any of the lots in this area would have a negative impact on many homes in a variety of ways. We
sincerely hope you take all of our concerns into consideration and deny Mr. Ramirez's rezoning request.
Thank you for your civil service to our community.
Sincerely,
Alicia and Travis Wicht

Subject:Rezone Request; A tract of land consisting of all lots 1, 2, 3 Schaafs Subdivision, Hall
County Nebraska, from LLR- Large Lot Residential Zone to B2- General Business Zone.
The properties located west of Gunbarrel Road, North of Seedling Mile Road, (c-31-
To whom it may concern:
My name is Greg Erwin, I live at 545 N Gunbarrel Rd. Right across the street from the property Schaaf's
Second Subdivision. My family and I have concerns about rezoning this property from residential to
commercial.
My mother and I moved to Grand Island from Phoenix almost 3 years ago to be closer to my daughter and
her family. The reason I choose the area and the house I did was because after looking into all of the
properties in this area, I found that they were all zoned as residential meaning that this area was safer for my
family, including my elderly mother and my young grandchildren.
Rezoning this property to B2 gives me grave concerns due to the fact that rezoning this as a commercial
property brings more traffic and people to the area. Making this a reception hall has a high potential for drunk
driving in this quiet residential community, public intoxication, potential for increased crime and violence that
come along with the consumption of alcohol, loud music, litter, livestock safety concerns, other
environmental imbalance, and overall disturbance to the community and the people who choose this area to
live because of the safe, and quiet residential zoning.
Public intoxication, reception halls, and other such activities coinciding with this type of business should be
kept inside of city limits because of many safety concerns. One being that this property is on the county line of
Hall and Merick counties. If the authorities, and or first responders for any emergency situations have to be
called and sent out, I am concerned about the response times and which county would respond.
Also, rezoning this property opens up the possibilities for other types of businesses such as convenience
stores, gas stations, restaurants, etc. to buy the property and become more disruptive to this safe, quiet,
residential community.
I hope all of these concerns are taken into consideration when deciding whether to rezone this property and
disrupt this residential community. Thank you for your time regarding this matter. Any further questions
please feel free to contact me via email at GPapa3@gmail.com or by phone at (602)487-9933. If I do not
answer, please leave a message.

We live at 4490 E Seedling Mile less than a half mile from Harmony Hall. Please vote against the rezoning. We
have a quiet, rural community here and there is no reason to have a reception hall in the middle of my
neighborhood that will be loud and busy every Saturday night. We have children that live and play in this area
and Seedling Mile Road already have people that speed along it. This will be a problem situation from day one
if this is rezoned. Thank you for listening.

Just another quick note after reading the GI Independent this morning. According to Jose's facebook post this is
suppose to be a grand event hall. The paper said this morning in his quote
"I have other plans for it if it doesn't go my way, but basically it would be just a bar, mostly Fridays and
Saturdays, and outdoor activities." After a rezoning is granted, there is no control on what he can build there.
Please be respectful of my quiet rural area of this city and deny his request for rezoning.

Item F-1
#9886 - Consideration of Amendments to Chapter 30 of the Grand
Island City Code Relative to Applications for Permits (Second and
Final Reading)
Staff Contact: Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 42 / 342
Council Agenda Memo
From:Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Meeting:July 26, 2022
Subject:Consideration of Amendments to Chapter 30 of the
Grand Island City Code Relative to Applications for
Permits
Presenter(s):Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Background
It was brought to Staff’s attention that Chapter 30-30 of City Code hasn’t been updated
with the City Council approved Fee Schedule regarding permit fees. The current Code
states an investigation fee in addition to the permit fee in the same amount as the permit
fee shall be assessed, while the approved Fee Schedule states a set amount of $400.00 for
Unauthorized Connections/Reconnections for sanitary sewer service. An investigation
fee is charged when work is done without the proper approval and permits in place and
City staff is charged with working to ensure City Code and General Standards are
followed to protect City assets.
Discussion
This Ordinance will amend Chapter 30 of City Code to have it comply with the City’s
Fee Schedule. The inspection fee will be the amount set by the Fee Schedule as approved
by this Council.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council approve the corrections to Section 30-
30 of Grand Island City Code.
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 43 / 342
Sample Motion
Move to approve ordinance approving corrections to Section 30-30 of Grand Island City
Code.

to the plumbers examining board.
From the Fire Department: §16-11 concerning open burning permit fees and §16-25

#9885 - Consideration of Amendments to Chapter 5 of the Grand Island City Code
Relative to Peacocks
Interim City Attorney Stacy Nonhof reported that currently there was no prohibition preventing
ownership of peafowl within the City limits of Grand Island. Pursuant to a complaint by a citizen
of Grand Island, this matter was addressed by the Animal Advisory Board on June 23, 2022. The
request was made to have the City prohibit ownership of these birds as they are loud and create a
nuisance. This Ordinance is in conformance of the directive of the Animal Advisory Board to
prohibit ownership of these birds. This Ordinance does not address the peafowl that are already
within the City limits, but would rather prohibit anyone from lawfully owning these birds in the
future. The birds currently in Grand Island were not owned by anyone. Staff recommended
approval.
Rita Hemmer, 1902 Eldorado Street spoke in support. Tonia Gleason, 1123, No. Geddes Street;
Craig Oakleaf, 1911 Eldorado Street; and Jim Wagoner, 2304 W. Louis Street spoke in

ordinance.

#2022-184 - Approving Bid Award for Annual Supply of Road
Deicing Salt 2022-2023
Staff Contact: Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 121 / 342
Council Agenda Memo
From:Shannon Callahan, Streets Superintendent
Meeting:July 26, 2022
Subject:Approving Bid Award for Annual Supply of Road
Deicing Salt 2022-2023
Presenter(s):Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Background
The City of Grand Island Streets Division uses granular road salt and other granular
products to treat icy roadway conditions during the winter months. The salt storage
facility, “Salt Dome”, is capable of holding 900 Tons of bulk deicing material. Average
annual tonnage of road deicing chemicals used by the City ranges between 1,000 tons and
1,500 tons. The storage facility is filled to maximum capacity after winter and kept as full
as possible during the winter months.
In the past, a line item for two (2) separate times of year conditions, off-peak season
(May 1-August 1) and peak season (September 1-April 1) would be part of the bid. Due
to the weather this winter the salt storage facility is currently full and therefore only
prices for peak season were requested.
Another difference in this year’s bid specifications is the addition of a fuel cost
adjustment for the delivered salt. Due to current fuel price volatility, adjustments in
pricing, both upward and downward, will be required to offset changes in the cost of fuel.
The process utilized is in line with the process followed by the Nebraska Department of
Transportation on their roadway salt purchase contracts.
Discussion
Bids were advertised on June 17, 2022 and sent to four (4) potential bidders. Three (3)
bids were received and opened on July 6, 2022. Below is the bid award recommendation.

Background
Lift Station No. 17 Improvements; Project No. 2021-S-9 is for the relocation and
construction of a new sanitary sewer lift station that will replace the existing lift station
which is currently located north of the intersection of South Locust Street and Exchange
Road, on the west side of South Locust Street. Due to lack of space, the replacement lift
station would more than likely go on the east side of South Locust Street. Along with a
new lift station, new force main will need to be installed such that the discharge location
will outlet to manhole 287 just east of the existing lift station. Also included will be the
associated paving, sidewalk, traffic control and all other items needed to complete the
project.

Improvements; Project No. 2021-S-9 Amendment No. 1 to the original agreement with
Olsson, Inc. is being requested. This amendment will be in the amount of $140,300.00 for
a revised agreement of $261,300.00.

#2022-189 - Approving Bid Award for Mowing at the Wastewater
Treatment Plant
Staff Contact: Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 145 / 342
Council Agenda Memo
From:Matt Walker PE, Assistant Public Works Director- Wastewater
Meeting:July 26, 2022
Subject:Approving Bid Award for Mowing at the Wastewater
Treatment Plant
Presenter(s):Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Background
On July 3, 2022 the Wastewater Division of the Public Works Department advertised for
bids for mowing at the Wastewater Treatment Plant, including equipment and labor.
There were seven (7) potential bidders.
Discussion
Two (2) bids were received and opened on July 20, 2022. The Wastewater Division of
the Public Works Department and the Purchasing Division of the City Attorney’s Office
reviewed the bids that were received. The bid is shown below.
BIDDER BID
AB Service and Repair, LLC of Grand Island, NE $1,400.00 per mowing
GMP Fertilizing & Lawncare of Grand Island, NE $1,400.00 per mowing
The expected mowing frequency is weekly through the growing season, with 28 yearly
mowings, estimated for a total of $39,200.00 per year.
Wastewater staff is recommending the bid award to AB Service and Repair, LLC based
on them listing their experience in their bid submittal, with GMP Fertilizing & Lawncare
not listing any. One of the references for AB Service and Repair, LLC is the Street
Division, which is currently utilizing their services with a good experience. Two (2)
additional references of AB Service and Repair, LLC were also contacted and gave
positive recommendations.
By contracting the lawn maintenance for the Wastewater Treatment Plant staff would be
able to focus on their core function of maintaining the plant buildings and equipment and
the City’s lift stations. In the past this work has been performed by a Maintenance
Mechanic, supplemented by a seasonal worker.
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 146 / 342
Seasonal staff has been hired in the past to mow at the Wastewater Treatment Plant,
however that has created challenges with additional management overhead, a high
worker’s compensation claim, and seasonal employees filing for unemployment. The
latest challenge is the lack of applicants for the seasonal mowing position, as there were
none this year.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council approve awarding the contract for
Mowing at the Wastewater Treatment Plant to AB Service and Repair, LLC of Grand
Island, Nebraska.
Sample Motion
Move to approve the resolution.

Council Agenda Memo
From:Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Meeting:July 26, 2022
Subject:Approving Bid Award for 2022 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation;
Project No. 2022-S-1
Presenter(s):Keith Kurz PE, Interim Public Works Director
Background
The City is taking a proactive approach in rehabilitating sanitary sewer areas prior to any major
failures. This project will focus on an area north of the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) tracks in
the area around Broadwell Avenue and North Front Street. This pipe is primarily clay tile. Spot
locations will be evaluated for sanitary sewer rehabilitation, with the thought that cured in place
pipe (CIPP) will be the ideal solution as existing pipe segments are mostly within constricted
areas, however other solutions may be considered. Manhole rehabilitation may also be completed
if needed to reinforce structural integrity.
On June 28, 2022 the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department advertised for bids
for 2022 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation; Project No. 2022-S-1.

Four (4) bids were received and opened on July 19, 2022. The Engineering Division of the
Public Works Department and the Purchasing Division of the City’s Attorney’s Office have

#2022-199 - Consideration of Approving FY 2022-2023 Annual
Budget for Railside Business Improvement District and Setting
Date for Board of Equalization
Staff Contact: Patrick Brown
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 231 / 342
Council Agenda Memo
From:Patrick Brown, Finance Director
Meeting:July 26, 2022
Subject:Consideration of Approving FY 2021-2022 Annual
Budget for Railside Business Improvement District and
Setting Date for Board of Equalization
Presenter(s):Patrick Brown, Finance Director
Background
On August 14, 2018, the City Council adopted Ordinance #9700 creating the Railside
Business Improvement District (BID). The creating ordinance established the purpose of
the District, described the boundaries, and established that real property in the area would
be subject to a special assessment to support the purposes of the District. The creating
Ordinance requires that a proposed budget for the District be approved by the BID Board
and forwarded tot the City Council for consideration. On June 15, 2022, the Railside BID
Board met and approved the 2022-2023 budget that provides for a total special
assessment of $134,815.04. Which is a six percent increase of the 2022 special
assessment.
Discussion
The reformation of the Railside BID that occurred in 2018 created the Railside BID as a
perpetual entity. In this district, assessments are paid by property owners based on the
County assessor’s valuation of the property. Owners will be billed for the assessment
after approval by City Council sitting as the Board of Equalization of August 30, 2022.
The budgeted assessments of $134,815.04 will be charged to property owners in the
district based on their valuations. Notices will be published in the Grand Island
Independent on July 29, August 5, and August 12 2022. Copies of the notice will also be
mailed to property owners after the first publication via the method required by State law.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Approve the proposed budget and date for BOE.
2.Deny the proposed budget and date for BOE.
3.Send back to the BID Board for adjustment.
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 232 / 342
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the City Council approved the BID budget as
proposed and sets the date for Board of Equalization as August 30, 2022.
Sample Motion
Move to approve resolution as proposed.

Background
On February 14, 2017, the City Council adopted Ordinance #9622 creating the Fonner

#2022-202 - Consideration of Approving FY 2022-2023 Benefits for
Vehicle Off-Street Parking District #3 and Setting Date of Board of
Equalization
Staff Contact: Patrick Brown
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 247 / 342
Council Agenda Memo
From:Patrick Brown, Finance Director
Meeting:July 26, 2022
Subject:Consideration of Determining Benefits for Vehicle Off-
street Parking District #3
Presenter(s):Patrick Brown, Finance Director
Background
The creation of Parking District #3 occurred January 8, 2019. The goal of the new
Parking District #3 is to better balance those paying into the Parking District with those
who are using and/or most benefit from the Parking District. Under former Parking
District No. 1 established in the 1970’s the financial burden of parking lot maintenance
fell solely upon retail and professional businesses within the district through an
occupation tax. Over time, however, the use of downtown properties evolved with retail
uses replaced by non-business uses and by use by non-retail and non-professional
business, Through formation of Off-street Parking District No. 3 and the levy of special
assessments the financial burden of maintaining off-street parking lots will be distributed
among the owners of all properties within the district irrespective of the use of the
property, whether business, retail, government, religious, or nonprofit. This will achieve a
fairer and more equitable distribution of the financial burden among all properties
specially benefitted by the availability of convenient free off-street parking within the
district.
Discussion
Property owners within the District will be charged a special assessment based on the
entire square footage of their buildings. The square footage is based on the information
obtained from the County Assessor; however, if square footage was not available from
the Assessor then a calculation was done based on outer building dimensions and the
number of floors. The total square footage for Parking District #3 is 1,811,612. The
special assessment charge for the 2021-2022 year is $73,470 or $0.0405/square foot.
Property owners who have parking within their property that is open to the public,
customers or users of the building can apply for a $10/space credit. This credit can reduce
the amount owed for that property or other properties owned by the same owner within
300 feet down to a minimum of $0. Any excess that cannot be used will not be paid out to
the property owner or credited to other properties more than 300 feet away. There is an
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 248 / 342
estimated $13,000 in potential parking spot credits based on estimated property owner
owned parking spots. The total estimated net revenue for the 2022-2023 year is $60,000.
Alternatives
It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand.
The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Amend the resolution
3.Refer the issue to a Committee
4.Postpone the issue to future date
5.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
City Administration recommends that the Council set the date of August 30, 2022 for the
Board of Equalization. Notice of the Hearing and proposed assessments will be published
according to State Statutes.
Sample Motion
Move to set the date of August 30, 2022 for the Board of Equalization.

A grievance for the purpose of the agreement refers to a question of interpretation, application, and
meaning of the terms of the labor agreement between the City and the F.O.P.
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 275 / 342
17
Employees shall raise and thoroughly discuss any matters of disagreement with their immediate
supervisor in order to informally resolve as many matters as possible.
In reducing a grievance to writing, the following information must be stated with reasonable clearness:
The exact nature of the grievance, the act or acts of commission, the time and place of the act of
commission or omission, the identity of the party or parties who claim to be aggrieved, the provisions of this
agreement that are alleged to have been violated and the remedy which is sought.
In the event that satisfactory settlement is not or cannot be reached after the matter has been informally
raised with the immediate supervisor, the following procedure shall be used in submission of a grievance.
1.First Step – Any employee who believes that he/she has a justifiable request or grievance shall
discuss the request or complaint within five (5) calendar days with the Captain, with or without
the F.O.P. representative being present, as the employee may elect, in an attempt to settle the
same. If a grievance or request has not been satisfactorily resolved in Step One, it may be
presented in writing and proceed to Step Two only if the F.O.P. representative determines that it
constitutes a meritorious grievance. A grievance to be considered beyond Step One must be filed
in writing with the Police Chief on the form provided by the City.
2.Second Step – The Police Chief shall consider the grievance and notify the employee in writing
within seven (7) calendar days after receipt of the grievance.
3.Third Step – If the grievance is not settled to the satisfaction of the employee, the employee or
employee’s representative shall present it in writing to the Mayor of the City or the Mayor’s
designated representative within seven (7) calendar days after the decision of the Police Chief.
The Mayor or designated representative shall notify the employee of the decision made and of
any action taken within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of the grievance.
4.Fourth Step – If the grievance is not settled to the satisfaction of the employee, he/she may
appeal, within ten (10) days after receipt of the City’s decision to a court of competent
jurisdiction.
The grievant may use vacation leave to prepare or present the case. Nothing in this agreement shall
prevent the grievant from including in his or her petition a prayer for remuneration for time expended in the
preparation, trial, or other time lost relating to grievance under consideration.
B.GENERAL CONDITIONS
All grievances shall be presented by the employee in person. The employee shall not be paid for any
time used to present a grievance. An employee must obtain the permission of the immediate supervisor before
leaving the job to present a grievance. (None of the above precludes the possibility of meetings at any step of
the grievance procedure among the parties involved to discuss the issues and to attempt to settle them at that
step). Nothing in the foregoing provisions shall be construed to apply to the extent, if any, that such provisions
may become in conflict with a duly enacted statute of the state or a decision of the court of competent
jurisdiction.
Grand Island Council Session - 7/26/2022 Page 276 / 342
18
The time limits provided in this Article shall be strictly construed and the failure of any moving party to
meet the time limits listed in this Article relative to the processing of the grievance shall constitute an
unconditional acceptance of the remedy promulgated at the last step, or constitute a rescission of the act giving
rise to the grievance, whichever is appropriate.

Background
Currently, the scheduling of a Study Session is done via a Resolution when a need or

the month. This was done pursuant to City Code. By Ordinance 9009, Study Sessions
were removed from the mandatory first and third Tuesday. A request has been made to
schedule Study Sessions for the remainder of the 2022 calendar year. It bears further
discussion if City Code should be changed again to add the first and third Tuesday back
into the mandatory schedule.
This Resolution will schedule a Study Session for 7:00 p.m. on August 2, August 16,
September 6, September 20, October 4, November 1, November 15, December 13 and
December 27, 2022. The agenda for those meetings will be determined as topics arise.
Alternatives

The Council may:
1.Move to approve
2.Refer the issue to a Committee
3.Postpone the issue to future date
4.Take no action on the issue
Recommendation
