To: From: cc: Members of City Council Memorandum Tania Menesse, Director of Economic Development Mayor Earl M. Leiken Chief Administrative Officer Jeri E. Chaikin Date: September 26, 2016 Re: Request to appropriate $50,000 that will be reimbursed by Cuyahoga County following the rules of the Storefront grant awarded to the City of Shaker Heights in February 2016. City Council provided the authorization for the Economic Development Department to apply for and accept a Cuyahoga County Storefront grant at its November 30, 2015 City Council meeting. The City of Shaker Heights was one of four municipalities to be awarded the $50,000 grant. This is a request to appropriate the funds which will be reimbursed by Cuyahoga County as projects are completed this Fall. The application to the County included six possible properties on Lee Road between Chagrin Boulevard and Scottsdale. The three properties chosen are in close proximity and are located in an Investment Target Area (ITA): 1. Discount Cleaners (3601 Lee Road) full façade improvement including tuck pointing, installing a new canopy, new windows and front door, plus new signage and landscaping. 2. State Farm Insurance Company (3605 Lee Road) full façade improvement including tuck pointing, repairs to work trim, new windows and front door. New signage and landscaping to be added as well. 3. Vacant building next to Sunoco station (3581 Lee Road) full façade improvement including tuck pointing, new windows and front door, new railing and awnings. Business owners are required to participate in the following ways: 1. Financially pay for up to 50% of the total project cost. 2. Work with the Design Specialist assigned by the City to clearly detail the work to be done on the property. City Council approved $25,000 in its 2016 budget towards this program to pay for a design specialist (an independent contractor) that assisted the business owner with envisioning their property needs, providing rough cost estimations, CITY OF SHAKER HEIGHTS I ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 3400 LEE ROAD I SHAKER HEIGHTS, OH 44120 I TEL 216.491.1334 I FAX 216.491.1465 I OHIO RELAY SERVICE 711 I WEB shakeronline.com
communicating with the contractors bidding on the project and working through city processes. The most successful storefront programs have a designated person with design expertise working with the business owners; the design specialist has been essential to achieving an attractive and effective outcome. 3. Identify, select and manage the contractors completing the work on their building. 4. Follow all City requirements including securing all necessary building permits and approvals from the Architectural Board of Review, Board of Zoning Appeals and City Planning Commission. The property owners will submit contractor invoices to the City of Shaker Heights for payment in October. The City will process payment once work passes City inspection. Cuyahoga County will reimburse the City based on proof of payment to the property owners. The Finance committee recommended that City Council approve the $50,000 appropriation to comply with the Cuyahoga County Storefront regulations. The Economic Development department requests that the appropriation is approved on first reading and as an emergency so that property owners can be reimbursed as work is completed in October. 2
