Title
Resolution to Approve City Place Site Plan and Development Agreement, 1.23 acres, 407-437 South Fifth Avenue (CPC Recommendation: Motion to Recommend Approval Failed - 5 Yeas and 1 Nay)
Memorandum
Attached is a resolution requesting approval of the construction of two, three-story apartment buildings with a total of 24 units (144 bedrooms) and 36 surface parking spaces. A Development Agreement has been prepared to address public and private utilities, preservation of landmark trees, park contribution, street tree escrow, construction and maintenance of on-site storm water management system, and footing drain disconnections. The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed the Agreement and the petitioner has acknowledged concurrence with its provisions. The City Planning Commission Motion to Approve failed on July 7, 2009.

On July 20, 2009 the Ann Arbor City Council granted a postponement of the City Place Site Plan until January 19, 2010. The resolution also included permission for the developer to submit an application for a planned unit development (PUD) on the site during the postponement. In the resolution, the developer was given the option to submit a written request and have the site plan scheduled for immediate public hearing and consideration by City Council instead of the PUD. The developer has submitted such a letter, and the attached site plan is now before you for your consideration.
