vacated and now these people can.
Mr. Andrew stated that these people could have appealed to the Zoning Board of
Appeals and gotten permission to go all the way to the property line.

them would be four feet and this would preclude anything the Zoning Board of
Appeals would judge.

vacating. She also wanted to know if these people do build up to the property
line and thenthe family behind them wants to build a garage would they have to

to the rezoning.
•
Mr. George Kolb, 37611 Grantland, stated he lived on this street for 20 years

that it was his feeling that the rezoning would harm the property owners.
$ Mr. and Mrs. Herschleib, 37651 Grantland stated that they agreed with Mr. Kolb
11; and further stated that the whole area should be considered and not just pieces
of it.
9370
Mr. Andrew asked if the Commission considered Amrhein to Plymouth for
rezoning would this be what they were after.
Mrs. Herschleib stated that this was not what they wanted. She stated that
small factories like the one intended would devaluate their property.
Mr. Andrew questioned if Mrs. Herschleib thoughtthat one manufacturer should
or would buy the whole area.
Mrs. Herschleib stated that in other words they were in the way and they
wanted them out of there.

Mr. Warren stated that they had purchased the land several years ago for the
purpose of developing the area. He went on to say that the master plan calls
for industrial development. If the area called for multiple dwelling then they
• would be putting in multiple dwelling. He further stated that what many people
did not realize was that Livonia is known as a progressive industrial city.
Many Livonians do not recognize this. He summed up by saying that they will
be developing" this area as an industrial enterprise.
Mr. Falk stated that he did not think that Mr. Warren had answered his question.
Mr. Pinto asked Mr. Warren if he had any definite proposed use in mind or a tenant
as yet.
Mr. Warren stated he would develop the land and then sell it to a wholesale
distributor of plumbing supplies.
Mr. Hand asked Mr. Feinberg if the property (Newburgh. Estates Sub-)
division) had any deed restrictions, how could they be removed.
Mr. Feinberg stated that if deed restrictions are contained in subdivisions
then by vote they can remove those restrictions. The length of time these
If subdivision rules run is also in question.
Mr. Andrew stated that the restrictions run with the land until removed by the
property owners or expire, but that this does not preclude the City from rezoning
the property.
Mr. Gibbs , 18898 Newburgh Road wanted to know whether he could get his property
9371
rezoned and sell it, He was interested in someone buying the whole area.
Mr. Talbot asked if everything were rezoned to manufacturing would it be
necessary to get the whole of the residents to vote on these deed restrictions.
Mr. Pinto stated that any purchaser will not buy property unless restrictions
are removed or provide for them to be removed. When it is not zoned properly
they will attempt to get the property released before they will make an offer.
