1935 Breton Rd SE - Conditional Rezoning

Requesting: Approval of a conditional rezoning agreement to facilitate construction of an urgent care facility in the NOS (Neighborhood Office Service) Zone District.

Amtrak has a new plan: Connect Us (PDF, 76 pages).

Amtrak may also be about to receive the largest infusion of funding seen in decades. What do they hope this means for Michigan service?

UPDATE 2023-09-19: Any proposed zoning reforms are now not expected to be heard until January, 2024. 🙄

UPDATE 2023-07-26: In comments related to the adoption of two city ordinances related to the unhoused population 2nd Ward Commissioner Knight made positive references to the zoning reforms; specifically to the number of unrelated persons allowed to live at a single address as well as more people being able to build accessory dwelling units.

UPDATE 2023-08-02: The owner of the properties backed out of the meeting of the Creston Land Use committee scheduled for 2023-08-02. You can read 👉the letter from Copperrock Construction👈. In short, there is no plan to present. This is a textbook example of an outbreak of NIMBY Fever.
