Township Planner Workshop

Chairman Ruemenapp notes that the workshop is tentatively approved. He explains that holding the workshop at scheduled Planning Commission meetings saves the township $700. Holding the workshop when the Zoning Board meets would cost an additional $500.

The dates of the workshop will be determined by the availability of time on the Planning Commission’s agenda.

Chairman Ruemenapp, who also chairs the Planning Commission, notes that a public hearing will be scheduled to rezone the Township recreational space on Meisner Road. He notes that there are plans for a proposed gas station on the corner of Palm and 32 Mile Road.
