'FH , CITY OF LIVONIA
On Tuesday, May 16, 1967, the City Planning Commission of the City of Livonia
held its 237th Special Meeting and a Public Hearing at the Livonia City Hall,
33001 Five Mile Road, Livonia, Michigan.
Mr. Charles W. Walker, Chairman, called the Public Hearing to order at approxi-
mately 8:45 p.m. with approximately 50 interested persons in the audience.
Members present: Charles W. Walker Donald Pollock Harry Wrightman
Donald Heusted Marvin Moser Myra Chandler
Mimi Singer
Members absent: John J. Ward Raymond W. Tent
Messrs. Don Hull, Planning Director; Ralph H. Bakewell, Planner III; David Perry,
Assistant City Engineer; and Daniel Andrew, Industrial Development Coordinator,
were present.
Mr. Wrightman announced the first item on the agenda is the preliminary plat
approval for Tiffany Park Subdivisions, No. 4 and No. 5, located
north of Schoolcraft and east of Haggerty Road in the west 1/2
of Section 19.
0I10 Mr. Hull referred the Commission to a letter dated May 10, 1967 in the Planning
Commission file which requested withdrawal of Tiffany Park Subdivision No. 5
from the agenda at this time and until the developer has had an opportunity to
work out technical difficulties with the State Highway Department.
Mr. Walker announced that in view of this request only Tiffany Park Subdivision
No. 4 would be heard tonight.
Mr. Malcolm Waring, representing Alto Building Company, stated that since this
Subdivision was recorded under the regulations of the old ordinance the 120'
lot depth the new ordinance should not apply.
Mr. Walker questioned if Mr. Waring and his client are willing to comply with
the requiements of the Subdivision Rules and Regulations, and Ordinance #500
relative to dedication of open space in subdividing land.
Mr. Waring stated they felt they should not have to comply with these requrie-
ments; that they have complied with the lot depths, and they are asking
approval as shown.
Mr. Wrightman asked is this the same subdivision as was originally approved.
Mr. Waring stated that the City of Livonia approved this plan.
Mr. Hull advised that the City of Livonia had processed the final plat for this
Subdivision prior to the time they' knew the freeway would be constructed in
proximity to the Subdivision. The City could not disregard the approval but
since the improvements had not been installed they held back on construction.
5107
Mr. Wrightman asked if this, then, is a new Subdivision, and if so, it
should come under the new ordinance, and compliance with the open space
requirement is needed,
Mr. Waring stated they are complying with the lot depth requirement.
Mr. Pollock requested to know if Mr. Waring was saying they will not
dedicate the open space.
Mr. Waring replied, that is correct.
Mr. Pollock requested the opinion of the City Attorney as to whether or not
a replat would fall in the category of a new subdivision and have to comply
with the new ordinance.
Mr. Perry stated it is his opinion it is a new plat but it is not a matter
of a Zoning Ordinance being retroactive, and that if he wanted to Mr. Waring
could perhaps make the City go along with the approved plat, but the State
may intervene.
Mr. William O'Neil, 14254 Susanna, was present and objected to the Subdivision.
Mr. Vernon Foor, Jr. , 14065 Houghton, was present and objected to this
Subdivision on the basis of no access being provided to Schoolcraft.
I
Mr. Robert Brown, 38979 Ross, President of the Castle Gardens Civic
Association, was present and objected on behalf of the members of the
Association, to the Subdivision because they have not provided for any
open space in an area where there is presently only 5 acres.
Mr. E. Stevenson, 14268 Susanna, was present and objected on the basis of
no access being provided to Schoolcraft.
Mr. Hull advised that the State Highway Department could be contacted to
see if they will give us an access.
The resident of 14790 Knolson, was present and objected to the Subdivision.
Mrs. Kathryn Kelley, 14321 Nola, and Mrs. Maddline Hauck, 14340 Nola, were
present and objected.
Mr. Frank Moore, 14273 Knolson, was present and objected to the Subdivision.
Mr. Walker stated this item would be taken under advisement.
Mr. Wrightman announced the next item on the agenda is Petition 67-4-1-10
by Sidney Spitz requesting to rezone property located on the
northwest corner of Stark Road and Plymouth Road in Section 28,
from C-1 to C-2.
Mr. Sidney Spitz, petitioner, was present and stated that he has owned and
paid taxes on the property for 15 years. He stated he has lost potential
buyers and tenants because of the existing zoning and feels that if C-2
zoning could be obtained he could put up a building and put the property to
use.
5108
Mr. Moser questioned what type of building did Mr. Spitz plan to put up.
Mr. Spitz stated he has no firm plans as yet, and that the size of the
property is almost two acres.
Mr. Walker questioned if he has a specific use planned for any part of the
property.
Mr. Spitz replied, no.
Mrs. Chandler stated her feeling that to request the Planning Commission
to grant a change of zoning to C-2 when there was no indication as to what
the property would be used for was unreasonable.
Mr. Walker stated that perhaps it would be better if Mr. Spitz came in for
a change of zoning at a time when he had a definite use for the property
because there are some uses in the 0.2 zoning category that would not be
wanted here.
Mr. Spitz requested to know which uses the Planning Commission would not
want on this particular property.
Mr. Wrightman stated traffic generater types of businesses would not be
best here because Plymouth Road is overloaded now, and car washes are included.
I
Mr. Pollock stated that the Commission would like to see a business that
would add to the City's tax base located here and that the Commission is
willing to work with Mr. Spitz to bring in such a business, but as a
Commission, they are opposed to the rezoning of land when they do not know
what the land is to be used for; this is called speculative zoning.
Mr. Spitz requested that the matter be tabled until he has something concrete
to give to the Commission. He further stated he would rather have the
matter tabled than withdrawn to save time.
Mr. Perry, Assistant City Attorney, stated there is no limitation on the
length of time for which a matter can be tabled.
Mr. Vanzo, 12066 Boston Post Road, stated that the people of Alden Village
thanked Mr. Spitz for cleaning up this property, and that they have no
objection to C-2 zoning but they would object to a use such as a car wash
or a drive-in.
Mr. Acchione, 25043 Five Mile, Detroit, Michigan, was present with Mr.
Spitz, and stated his feeling that Mr. Spitz should be granted the C-2
zoning.
Mr. Spitz stated that it is his understanding that if he comes in with a
sound plan the Commission will help in expediting it.
Mr. Walker stated this item will be tabled for a period of 90 days.
5109
Mr. Wrightman announced the next item on the agenda is Petition 67-4-1-11
by Plastomer Corporation requesting to rezone property located
on the south side of Schoolcraft and west of Newburgh in Section
30, from RUF to M-2,
Mr. Alfred Wilkie, 2372 First National Building, Detroit, was present
representing the petitioner and stated this company has been located in
Livonia for over 2 years. They proposed to purchase this property and
move part of their present operation to a building that is proposed to
be built on this property. He stated that after the States takes property
for the freeway this will be the only piece of RUF zoned property left,
and that there are homes on the front of the lots but they will be removed
by the State Highway Department.
Mr. Wrightman questioned how soon after the rezoning would building begin.
Mr. Wilkie stated they are prepared to purchase the property immediately
after approval by the Planning Commission of the rezoning.
Mrs. McNeil, 37571 Schoolcraft, stated there are deed restrictions on this
property and what is being done about them? •
Mr. Wilkie stated they are awaiting an opinion regarding the waivers of
these deed restrictions from Lawyers Title Insurance Corporation.
Mr. Philip Barth, 19733 W. Seven Mile Road, Detroit, stated that a petition
had been circulated and all owners but two on Schoolcraft and two on
Newburgh have signed the petition to change the restrictions, and that the
present restrictions state there will always be conformance to whatever the
zoning is.
Mrs. McNeil questioned that if the petitioner waited until the State High-
way Department takes the property for the freeway at the end of July wouldn't
this property then automatically be industrial?
Mrs. Joseph Schires, 37551 Schoolcraft, was present and objected to the
petition.
Mr. Walker stated this item will be taken under advisement.
Mr. Wrightman announced the next item on the agenda is Petition 67-4-7-5
by the City Planning Commission to amend the Master Thoroughfare
Plan to include the extension and continuation of Fairfield and
Brookfield as dedicated in Taylor Gardens Subdivision, north
to Five Mile Road in Section 22.
There was no one present wishing to be heard regarding this petition.tele .
Mr. Walker stated the item will be taken under advisement.

by David D. Phipps requesting to be granted a waiver use
permit to build a nursing home and clinic on property located

in Section 33.
Mr. Phipps, petitioner, presented a site plan to the Commission showing
the additional property which had been added at the request of the
Commission, and indicated that the sanitary and storm sewer problems are
being taken care of. He further stated that the City can count on the
right-of-way dedication.
Mr. Carl Troia, 35280 Ann Arbor Trail was present and stated his
opposition to this petition.

the Public Hearing at the request of Malcolm Waring of Waring & Johnson.
The Commission concurred with the request, therefore, only the preliminary
plat for Tiffany Park Subdivision No. 4 will be taken up at this time.
