Memorandum

Approval of this resolution will rezone this 1.21 acre parcel from PL Public Land to D1 Downtown Core to allow the Ann Arbor District Library to explore public-private partnerships for future redevelopment of the downtown library site.

 

The City Planning Commission determined that the proposed rezoning is consistent with the adjacent zoning, the surrounding land uses, and the City's Comprehensive Plan and recommended approval of the request at its meeting of March 4, 2025.  The Planning Commission supported the recommendation without an Area Plan pursuant to Section 5.29.7 of the Unified Development Code.
