Ii MINUTES OF THE 156TH SPECIAL MEETING
OF THE CITY PLANNING COMMISSION OF
1 THE CITY OF LIVONIA
On Tuesday, January 29, 1963 the City Planning Commission of the City of Livonia
held the 156th Special Meeting at the Livonia City Hall, 33001 Five Mile Road,
Livonia, Michigan. Mr. Charles W. Walker, Chairman, called the Special Meeting to
order at approximately 8:05 p.m.
Members present: Milton Ingold, Edward Milligan, Dennis Anderson, W. E.
Okerstrom, Robert L. Angevine, Dr. Daniel Allen and Charles
W. Walker
Members absent : James Cameron
Mr. David R. McCullough, City Planner, was present. He announced the first item
on the agenda was the Final Approval for the Burton Hollow Woods Subdivision located
on the north side of Six Mile Road and approximately 460 ft. West of Farmington
Road in the Southwest 1/4 of Section 10. The developer for said subdivision is
the Rouge Building Company.
Mr. David Meinzinger was present for the developers.
The Planning Commission had a lengthy discussion on the advisability of 4o ft.
frontages on 9 cul-de-sac lots in the subdivision. Mr. Anderson advised the
Commission that the average person would never notice the difference if the
frontages were reduced to 4J ft. The lots involved are numbered as follows: 80,
61, 82, 95, 96, 97, 106, 107 and 108.
There was a brief discussion on the setbacks imposed on several lots in the original
preliminary approval. These lots, numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 54, 55 and 56, fronted on
Six Mile Road. These imposed setbacks made it difficult to maintain the required
35 ft. rear yard. It was ascertained that the original approval should be amended
so that the setbacks can be reduced sufficiently to provide 35 ft. rear yards for
the aforementioned lots.
Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Angevine, supported by Mr. Anderson, it was
#1-14-63 RESOLVED that, after due consideration, the City Planning Commission
does hereby amend Resolution #7-176-62 adopted on Tuesday, July
31, 1962 approving the preliminary plat of the Burton Hollow Woods
Subdivision located on the north side of Six Mile Road and 460
feet East of Farmington Road in the Southwest 1/4 of Section 10,
by reducing the setbacks imposed on Lots 1, 2, 3, 4. 54, 55 and
56, in said resolution, sufficiently to provide thirty-five (35)
ft. rear yards as required by the Zoning Ordinance of the City
of Livonia, except that the setback on Lot #54 shall be the same
as that on the house immediately east thereof.
A roll call vote on the foregoing resolution resulted in the following:
Iri AYES: Ingold, Milligan, Anderson, Okerstrom, Angevine and Charles
W. Walker
NAYS: None
