Request for approval of a proposed rezoning from GC (General Commercial) and PRF (Public Recreational Facility) to C-PUD (Commercial - Planned Unit Development), corresponding to the PUD concept plan, agreement and impact assessment (Oct. 1998) for 87.93 acres, located west of Latson and south of Grand River Ave. in Sections 05 and 08 for R-G Properties, as recommended by the P.C. Dec. 14, 1998.
- Disposition of rezoning request.
Moved by Skolarus, supported by Hunt, to deny the petition for the following reasons: A land use change at this time is premature because of the possible interchange construction scheduled two years from now for Interstate 96 at Latson Road. The traffic impact assessment was not provided to the board and definite solutions to the increased traffic increase need to be put in place. According to our planners, the pedestrian traffic within the development is not adequate. The petitioner has not met the six conceptual PUD approval standards as set forth within the township zoning ordinance, referencing Strader's letter of 11-18-98 Pg. 2, Section 3, Items 2,3, and 6 fail. The motion failed as follows: Ayes - Skolarus, Hunt and Robertson. Nays - Murray, McCririe and Jarvis.
Moved by McCririe, supported by Skolarus, to table the petition until the next regular meeting of the board. The motion carried unanimously.
- Request for approval of a special use permit, impact assessment (01-14-99), and site plan (01-14-99) for a proposed building located on the south side of Grand River at Euler Road; Smede Son Steel, Desine Engineering, Inc., as recommended by the P.C. Jan. 11, 1999.
- Disposition of special use permit.
Moved by McCririe, supported by Jarvis, to approve the special use permit for outdoor storage for Smede Son Steel as presented. The motion carried unanimously.
- Disposition of impact assessment.
Moved by Robertson, supported by McCririe, to approve the impact assessment as presented. The motion carried unanimously.
- Disposition of site plan.
Moved by Skolarus, supported by Jarvis, to approve the site plan, prior to issuance of a land use permit, with the following conditions: An easement agreement will be recorded in accordance with the Best Storage letter dated January 19, 1999 for the purpose of boring approximately 350 feet of storm sewer across the southeast area of the site identified as 7286 W. Grand River. Mechanicals will not be installed on the roof of the building. The existing sign on the site shall be removed prior to an occupancy permit being granted for the new facility. The petitioner shall cause a bond to be placed for the benefit of the township for the installation of the sidewalk and front yard landscaping satisfactory to the township staff and attorney. The petitioner shall provide a 30' utility easement to the benefit of the township in recordable form across the Grand River frontage of the property as depicted on the plan. The petitioner is aware that the site is located within the future water and sewer expansion area and will be subject to certain assessments for that development. The Brighton Fire Marshall will review the site. The motion carried unanimously.
