Title
Resolution to Approve The Village of Ann Arbor Site Plan at 1710 Dhu Varren Road (CPC Recommendation: Approval - 9 Yeas and 0 Nays).
Memorandum
Attached is a resolution to approve The Village of Ann Arbor Site Plan. Approval of this resolution will allow for the construction of an additional 120 dwelling units to the previously approved 484 dwelling units on a 78.5 acre site.
Petition Summary:
The Site Plan proposes the construction of 120 apartment dwelling units. The original approved plan from September 2022 outlined 484 residential units: 164 for-sale townhomes and 320 rental apartments, spread over approximately 68 acres. After approval of this petition, the proposal will encompass 604 units on a 78.5 acre site.
The 120 apartment units will be constructed in four new buildings in the northern portion of the site that is adjacent to Dhu Varren Road. The new development will include an amenities park area and parking area. Also included in this petition is a rezoning of two parcels (5.9 acres) along Pontiac Trail from Township to R4A (multiple-family residential). These parcels were annexed in 2022 with the intent to be added to the overall project. The added parcels enable the addition of the units along Dhu Varren while still meeting density and Open Space requirements.
