Roosevelt Park

What Roosevelt Park does

The City of Roosevelt Park is a statutory municipal government incorporated on August 20, 1946, located in the southwestern portion of Muskegon County, Michigan, encompassing a one-square-mile jurisdiction bordered by the cities of Muskegon and Norton Shores. It serves residential property owners, residents, and a smaller base of rental property owners/landlords with a standard menu of municipal services: police protection, public works, parks and recreation, water and sewer utilities, building and trade permitting, civil infractions adjudication, and rental housing inspection oversight. The city operates with a lean staff of approximately 20 employees, several of whom are named in the public record (City Treasurer Kate Dibble, City Clerk contact, Zoning contact Jared Olson), and delivers services through City Hall at 900 Oak Ridge Road, Muskegon, MI, supported by the BS&A online payment center and shared-service partnerships with Muskegon Charter Township (rental inspections) and the City of Norton Shores Building Department (permitting).

The business model is tax- and fee-based rather than commercial. Revenue is generated through semi-annual property tax collections (Summer due September 14, Winter due February 14), quarterly water ($5.44 per 1,000 gallons) and sewer ($5.07 per 1,000 gallons) utility billing, annual rental licensing and inspection fees (with graduated non-compliance penalties up to $500), a 3% credit card processing fee, and miscellaneous permits. A $1.00-per-quarter credit is offered to paperless/autopay enrollees, equivalent to $8.00 in annual savings. The city enforces a regulatory framework built around the 2009 Property Maintenance Code, the 2019 Firework Ordinance (19-03), and the 2019 Rental Dwelling Ordinance (19-04-04-15-2019). Outreach to constituents is conducted via the official website (rooseveltpark.org), a Facebook page, quarterly newsletters, and a community calendar. There are no commercial products, no proprietary technology platform, no disclosed API or developer integrations, and no AI/ML capabilities; all systems support standard municipal administration.
