RE: Update
Chicken Ordinance At the September meeting the Planning Commission recommended the City
Council authorize the expenditures to draft an Ordinance that would allow
backyard chickens. The Council discussed the matter at the September 16
Council meeting and decided to allow residents the opportunity to comment on
the suggestion before expending funds to draft an Ordinance.
At the October 7, 2010 Council meeting the Council accepted testimony and by
motion decided not to draft such an amendment.
Parking Ordinance At the September Planning Commission meeting a public hearing was held on a
number of Ordinance Amendments and recommended approval of all with the
exception of the Corridor Overlay which is still in progress. The Council
accepted the recommendation of the Planning Commission on all the
amendments with exception of the Parking provisions. The Council requested
reconsideration of the amendment relating to parking pads in residential areas.
The staff will be gathering additional information and discussing at their
November staff meeting with information for the December Planning
Commission meeting.
OA Process The final documents are being drafted by the City / Township attorney to reflect
the modifications from the October hearing. Once this is complete the
Township will act on the documents and then the City Council. It is anticipated
that the new process will be in effect in the beginning of 2011.
