Title
Resolution to Approve The Village of Ann Arbor Site Plan and Development Agreement at 1680 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 and Development Agreement. Approval of this resolution will allow for the construction of 484 dwelling units on a 67.6 acre site.

Petition Summary:

The Site Plan proposes the construction of 484 dwelling units consisting of townhomes and stacked flats. The project includes a clubhouse with a pool, on-site storm water detention systems, and a public access easement that will allow pedestrian and vehicular access to members of the public to Leslie Park on the east side of the site. The proposed for-sale homes will be fully electric. Proposed rental homes will include the necessary electrical infrastructure to support future conversion from natural gas fueled appliances.

A Brownfield Plan has been proposed as part of the project to address methane leaking from an existing landfill on the site. A variance was granted to accommodate a temporary reduction of the maximum front setback on the north side of the site.

The City Planning Commission, at its meeting of September 7, 2022, recommended approval of this request.
