Mr. Wilshaw: Okay, so our petitioner has requested that this item be put back on the table until May 9, 2023, and anytime we receive these requests, we honor the petitioner's request.

February 14, 2023 30816 Mr. Wilshaw, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution adopted. ITEM #2 PETITION 2023-01-02-01 Alleviate Acupuncture Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2023- 01-02-01 submitted by Alleviate Acupuncture Wellness Clinic requesting waiver use approval under Section 6.37 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to operate a massage establishment at 33300 Five Mile Road, Suite 105, located on the northeast corner of Five Mile and Farmington Roads in the Southwest' of Section 15. Mr. Taormina: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The location of this request is the Civic Center Office Plaza, which is at the northeast corner of Five Mile and Farmington Roads. This is an office building that is about 35,000 square feet in size and sits on land of roughly 3.13 acres with frontage on both Five Mile and Farmington Roads. It is a two- story structure. Most of the parking is located between the building and Five Mile and Farmington Roads. Directly adjacent to the site is the city owned Veterans Memorial Park. The site is zoned C-1, which treats massage establishments as a waiver use under Section 6.37 of the zoning ordinance. Alleviate Acupuncture Wellness Clinic currently occupies one of the suites, which is on the first floor of the building. The suite is roughly 2,350 square feet in size. The principal use of the business currently is acupuncture. Expanding the use to include massage therapy requires approval of a waiver. The plans submitted with the application show the general layout of the space including a lobby and reception area, several individual treatment rooms, as well as offices and a restroom. No modifications to the building are proposed. The zoning ordinance limits the hours of operation from 8am to 10pm. There are two special separation requirements that are part of the code. One is that massage establishments not be located within 400 feet of an existing massage establishment. There are no other massage establishments within 400 feet of this proposed location. Secondly, there is a 400-foot separation requirement from any school, place of worship, daycare facility, public library, playground, or park. As I indicated earlier, Veterans Memorial Park is located immediately adjacent to this site, so that will require that the required separation distance be waived by City Council with the Planning Commission's recommendation. Parking is adequate for the site. And Mr. Chairman, if you wish I can read out the correspondence now. Mr. Wilshaw: Mr. Taormina: Mr. Wilshaw: Mr. Wilshaw: Ruth Lehmann, Mr. Wilshaw: Ms. Lehmann: Mr. Wilshaw: Mr. Ventura: Ms. Lehmann: Mr. Ventura: Ms. Lehmann: Mr. Ventura: February 14, 2023 30817 Yes, please. I'II just summarize these quickly. We have actually six letters from departments including Engineering, Fire, Police Traffic Bureau, Department of Inspection, Accounting or Finance, as well as the Treasurer and all are indicating that they have no objections with the proposal as submitted. Thank you. All right. Thank you. Mr. Taormina. Is there any questions for our planning staff? If there's no questions for our planning staff, I believe our petitioners in the audience, feel free to come forward to our podium. We'll ask that you start with your name and address for our record. owner operator of Alleviate Acupuncture. I have a doctorate in acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Thank you, Ms. Lehmann. What else would you like to tell us about your business? Well, most of my patients actually are used to an integrative medicine perspective, utilizing chiropractic massage and acupuncture, and so they're looking forward to having additional options at my practice. Acupuncture and massage work synergistically to increase the effect, effective result, alleviating pain, decreasing stress and so it's just adding...it's kind of flushing out or supplementing the overall experience for my patients. Okay, thank you. Is there any questions from any of our fellow commissioners for Ms. Lehmann? Thank you for coming here tonight. You are really an acupuncture practice, and so this is going to supplement what you do. Is that correct? Yes. So, you're not primarily going to be a massage. Exactly. And the kind of massage that you're doing here differs from what you might think of as a massage parlor, if you will, in that it's therapeutic and... Ms. Lehmann: Of course. Mr. Ventura: Ms. Lehmann: Mr. Ventura: Ms. Lehmann: Mr. Wilshaw: February 14, 2023 30818 Mr. Taormina talked about the hours that the ordinance allows you to operate. What hours do you plan on operating? Definitely within those hours. We're actually open from 10am to 2pm, Mondays and Wednesdays. Tuesday evenings I'm open from 4pmr to 8pm. On Thursdays we're open a little bit earlier. We start at 8am and we go until 2pm, and then Saturdays, we're open from 9am until 1pm. Thank You No problem. Thank you, Mr. Ventura. Any other questions for our petitioner? Mr. Caramagno: Pete took my question with the hours. My question would be, how long you've been in business? And where have you been located? Ms. Lehmann: Mr. Wilshaw: Mr. Wilshaw: Ms. Lehmann: Mr. Wilshaw: Sure. So, I actually moved to Michigan five years ago. I previously worked as a nurse and then I worked as an acupuncturist at a health care facility in Wisconsin. I've been an acupuncturist for five years. When I moved to Michigan, I worked for Henry Ford Health System as an acupuncturist within their Center for Integrative wellness. I just opened my practice here in Livonia, in August of this past year, 2022, and I'm very happy to be here. However, my patients are missing the integrative approach and wishing me to bring the complement of services to them. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Caramagno, any other questions for our petitioner? I see no other questions from any of our commissioners. Is there anyone in the audience wishing to speak for or against this petition? I don't see anybody jumping up for that item. Is there anything else that you would like to say before we make our decision? No, thank you. Just thank you very much for the opportunity. I'm very happy to be here. Thank you, and we'll get your item resolved here shortly. Thank you. Thank you for coming. If there's no further questions of our February 14, 2023 30819 petitioner, and I can see that our public hearing is being closed and a motion would be in order. On a motion by Ventura, seconded by Long, and unanimously adopted, it was: #02-10-2023 RESOLVED, That pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held by the City Planning Commission on February 14, 2023, on Petition 2023-01-02-01 submitted by Alleviate Acupuncture Wellness Clinic requesting waiver use approval under Section 6.37 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, as amended, to operate a massage establishment at 33300 Five Mile Road, Suite 105, located on the northeast corner of Five Mile and Farmington Roads in the Southwest '/4 of Section 15, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that Petition 2023-01-02-01 be approved subject to the following conditions: 1. The use of a massage establishment at this location is allowed, provided that City Council waives the requirement under Section 6.37(3) that no massage establishment shall be located within four hundred feet (400') of a park. 2. This waiver is limited to Alleviate Acupuncture Wellness Clinic and shall only be transferred to another user after first obtaining City Council approval. 3. The Petitioner shall comply with all other special waiver use standards and requirements as outlined in Section 6.37 of the Zoning Ordinance and Chapter 5.49 of the Livonia Code of Ordinances, and 4. The Petitioner shall not engage in any form of solicitation for business within the public right-of-way of Farmington and Five Mile Roads. FURTHER RESOLVED, That notice of the above hearing was given in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.13 of Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, as amended. Mr. Wilshaw: Is there any discussion? Mr. Wilshaw, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution adopted. It will go on to City Council with an approving resolution. ITEM #3 PETITION 2023-01-06-01 LV 21 Zoning Amendments February 14, 2023 30820 Mr. Caramagno, Secretary, announced the next item on the agenda, Petition 2023- 01-06-01 submitted by the City of Livonia Planning Commission on its motion under Section 13.15 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, as amended, and under Public Act 110 of 2006 (Michigan Zoning Enabling Act), as amended, to consider multiple revisions to the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance to correct certain defects, add and delete provisions, and provide clarification to others. Mr. Taormina: Thank you. This item involves changes to the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance. The amendments would affect 39 sections of the code, many of which are minor and will have little or no impact other than to provide clarity and consistency. The more substantive changes include the following. First is classifying banquet facilities as a use similar to dance halls and ballrooms, defining what constitutes a banquet facility based on building occupancy, and establishing standards that will treat them as a waiver use in the C-2 zoning district. Next, making a distinction between steel fabricators and special trade contractors versus truck terminals, truck and trailer rental or storage facilities, and vehicle tow yards. Currently, these six industrial uses are lumped together under a single category and treated strictly as waiver uses in the M-1 and M-2 Manufacturing districts. The change would split them into two groups, with steel fabricators and special trade contractors as a separate group and treating them as a use permitted by right in the M-2 district. Next, adding the Open Space Preservation Option as a permitted use in RUF districts. This special zoning provision previously existed in Ordinance #543 and is something that the Michigan Zoning Enabling Act requires local government units to have in their zoning ordinances. The Open Space Preservation Option regulations are being added to Section 5.03. Any project or development proposed under this option would be subject to Site Plan Review. Fourth, adding apartments as a waiver to the NMI (Neighborhood Multifamily District). This change would correct an oversight when the new ordinance was adopted. You'll recall that the R-C (Residential Condominium), the R-6 (Two -Family) and the R-7 (Multifamily) districts that were all a part of the old ordinance were consolidated into the NMI district in the LV 21 Zoning Ordinance. Of the City's 17 non -age -restricted apartment complexes, 15 were zoned R-7. Unfortunately, the NMI district regulations do not include apartments, making them all non- conforming. To fix this, apartments would be added to Section 3.07 as a waiver -use. Next, eliminating the exception to the minimum residential lot depth standard. Footnote (b) in the schedule of regulations currently allows the City to reduce the depth of single-family lots where immovable physical boundary February 14, 2023 30821 limitations exist. This language has existed for years and has not been applied consistently. Recent litigation involving a lot split in which the plaintiff successfully used Footnote (b) as leverage against the City is why the Law Department is recommending that it be removed from the ordinance. Number six, enacting a size limit on stores that are allowed to sell packaged spirit products under a Specially Designated Distributor license, or SDD. The limit would be 15,000 square feet and would codify what has been a long-standing practice of the City to restrict SDD licenses to smaller retail stores instead of big box or large format businesses. Number seven, preventing alcohol sales at gasoline service stations. This is another long-standing practice of the City. Eight, providing construction standards for masonry screen walls, which are often required between residential and nonresidential zoning districts. Number nine requiring City Council approval to waive the hard surfacing requirements for parking areas. Ten, adopting several changes to the sign regulations, including modifying the definition of "mural" and stipulating that Council's approval is required to paint or add a mural to any building or structure. Next, adding and adjusting the standards for order and preorder menu boards for restaurants with drive-thru facilities. Increasing the area and number of awning, canopy or wall signs allowed in the City's commercial and industrial zoning districts and specifying that temporary signs must be placed outside of any easements. public right of way or common area used for vehicular or pedestrian traffic. I'll note that this was one of the changes recommended by the Planning Commission at the study session. The language which previously proposed maintaining a 10-foot setback has been changed. Eleven, adding language that would give the City Council the authority to limit the approval of a waiver to a specific user. Currently, this language is added to resolutions on a case -by -case basis but has yet to have a foundation in the ordinance. This change would do just that. Ironically, the most recent example was the case just prior to this when the Commission approved Alleviate Acupuncture. And twelve, clarifying the rights of the Building Official concerning enforcing the ordinance and charging and seeking penalties against violators. This evening. I'd like the Planning Commission to consider one more change not previously discussed. it would add drive -up window facilities for uses other than restaurants as a waiver use in the C-land C-2 districts, and as a permitted use in the C-3 district. The ordinance does not currently have rules that apply in these situations. A good example would be a pharmacy drive -up operation. This too existed in the previous ordinance, but somehow escaped being put back in the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance when it was adopted. it is the staff's opinion that the requested changes will result in a better zoning ordinance, One Mr. Wilshaw: Ms. Dinaro: Mr. Taormina: Ms. Dinaro: Mr. Taormina: Ms. Dinaro: Mr. Wilshaw: February 14, 2023 30822 that helps achieve the overall goals and objectives of the Livonia Vision Master Plan. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Taormina, and I think it's important for anyone who's watching this and wondering exactly what's going on, because there's a lot of moving parts in this petition, which is offered directly by the city and is the petitioner on this. In the past couple of years, we completely rewrote the zoning ordinance from scratch, basically, and came up with a whole new, much easier to use and simplified, manageable zoning ordinance, but in the process of doing that, there's going to be things that get missed or typos or things that needed to be added along the way. So, we went through this process some time ago and did a revision of a number of items, and approve that, you're now going back and you've collected more items that you found that needed to be updated, and are now presenting that to us again. We discussed this in length that our study meeting, each of these items, because there's a lot of little details and walk through those so that we understood what they were. Now we have an opportunity here at this meeting to ask any additional questions, get some input from any of our residents who may have any questions and then make the second revision to the zoning ordinance. This is going to continue to happen periodically. It's a living document. So, it's a lot of work goes into these things. It was very quickly summarized by Mr. Taormina, and I appreciate that but the reality is a lot of work goes into to doing this. So, I do appreciate all the all the effort that goes into this. With that, I will see because we are the petitioner for this item, I'm going to see...1111 go directly to the commissioners and see if there's any questions or comments from any of our commissioners for Mr. Taormina? Mark, did we get any public comments or feedback on this? We received one email which staff responded to. I believe the Planning Commission was copied on it. Nothing in addition to that? Nothing that I know of. Great. Excellent, thank you. Any other questions for our planning staff from any of our commissioners? Mr: Ventura: February 14, 2023 30823 Not a question, Mr. Taormina, but I want to compliment you and the Planning Commission staff on really doing an outstanding job of combing through this and having kept all the records of the places that this thing needed to be adjusted to meet the needs of the city and to make sense and to take out the conflicts and I think you've done an outstanding job. Thank you and I compliment you. Mr. Taormina: Thank you. Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you, Mr. Ventura. Any other questions or comments from any of our commissioners? If not, is there anyone in our audience wishing to speak for or against this item? If so, feel free to come forward. Mr. Wilshaw: Good evening, sir. Mike Coliton, 31193 Bobrich Street, Livonia, Michigan. Good evening, gentlemen. Good to see you guys. Thank you, guys, for what you do. Many people are home with families right now, seeing their kids play hockey or whatever. You guys are here. So, thank you, I mean that greatly. I'm here to remind you guys of your great and awesome duties that you have to serve the citizens of our city, and I thank you very much for that. So, I look back at all the meetings. I'll be traveling for some time, so this is going to be the last meeting I'll be able to do for a while. I look at what you guys talk about look, what you do. I look at the visions that you plan and this Vision 21 is extremely important to our city. It's the basics of what we're going to going forward. So, the obligations that you have are great. As a matter of fact, in 1926 the landmark case, the City of Euclid versus Ambler states that zoning boards not only are critical, they have an obligation to the citizens to uphold to protect the property values of the citizens. That 1926 Euclid versus Ambler. It states that you have an obligation to protect the property values of your citizens, so thank you for that, number one. In that constitutional landmark case, it said the argument favors zoning laws is that they help preserve the character of a community. Without these laws, the rezoning goes, you'd have brothels next to schools, and lumber mills or apartment buildings, next to residential neighborhoods. Proponents also argued these laws helped maintain property values and stabilize them, if not grow them. The argument is that when a government enacts a zoning ordinance, it has effect depriving property owner of a right but it's protecting the citizens who are there. So, I'd like you to remember this going forward. And please thank you again for what you do. What you guys are going to do tonight, and in the future, like May 9th In the future. It's going to make a big difference to our city. Thank you very much. February 14, 2023 30824 Mr. Wilshaw: Thank you. Mr. Collinson. For your comments. Is there anyone else wishing to speak for or against this item? I don't see anyone else coming forward. Is there any...again, I'll go back to my commissioners? Is there anyone on the commission wishing to make any comments or ask any additional questions? If not, I think I can close the public hearing on this item and a motion would be an order. On a motion by Long, seconded by Bongero, and unanimously adopted, it was: #02-11-2023 Mr. Wilshaw: RESOLVED, That pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held by the City Planning Commission on February 14, 2023, on Petition 2023-01-06-01 submitted by the City of Livonia Planning Commission on its motion under Section 13.15 of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance, as amended, and under Public Act 110 of 2006 (Michigan Zoning Enabling Act), as amended, to consider multiple revisions to the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance to correct certain defects, add and delete provisions, and provide clarification to others, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council that Petition 2023- 01/06/01 be approved for the following reasons: 1. That the proposed language amendments are needed to correct certain errors and omissions that were overlooked with the adoption of the original Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance. 2. That the proposed amendments add and delete certain provisions in a way that will serve to improve the effectiveness of the City's land use regulations. 3. That the proposed amendments will serve to further the implementation of the goals and objectives of the Livonia Vision 21 Master Plan and are in the best interests of the community as a whole. 4. That the proposed amendments to are in full compliance with the requirements of the Livonia Vision 21 Zoning Ordinance and the Michigan Zoning Enabling Act, P.A. 110 of 2006, as amended. On that motion, I want to just ask a question of the maker of the motion. I assume that you're also intending on including the language about drive ups. February 14, 2023 30825 Mr. Long: Inclusive of the language that was added today regarding drive in Windows for non -restaurants. Mr. Wilshaw: Okay, thank you. I just wanted to make sure that we... that it's very clear. Okay, thank you and the maker or the supporter, I'm sure it's okay with him. Okay, very good. And there is one person in the audience who's standing there. I don't normally... this is not time for public comment, but I will give you an opportunity if you would like to just briefly ask a question. Ellen Cusin,.31098 Bobrich Street, Livonia, MI. I know I was a little bit late. I'm sorry. I understand I was late. I didn't expect this to come up quite as quickly. But, um, I guess my concern and my question for you is, and you may have already addressed this, but why are these being addressed now? Actually, these actual things...some of these, when I was looking at what's being proposed, it just seems like we're opening ourselves up for maybe some non -regulation going on and not really having control over what's going to be happening in Livonia...on some of these, and I guess I'm just curious, like, when did these decide to come up because this like, appeared, and as far as I know, it appeared after the meeting two weeks ago and so it kind of just makes me wonder, and as a longtime resident of Livonia, I guess I would like a little more back drop history about this. Mr. Wilshaw: Sure. Unfortunately, you did miss probably my opening speech, which is...so hopefully...I'll sort of go through it again, quickly, just hoping to answer some of your questions. Our zoning ordinance was...we've had since the inception of the city. A year or so ago though, we went through a process of...a couple of years ago, probably now. a very lengthy process of completely rewriting our rezoning ordinance, or our zoning ordinance, to a whole new format and language. As part of that, when you're doing a major rewrite of something, things are gonna get missed, and so as that new zoning ordinance was implemented, and things that were discovered that either were missed, needs to be added, clarified, tweaked, typos, any of those types of things. Those were collected, and they're brought to us in a large package of revisions that we did. Some time ago, we did a revision, quite a while back to correct a bunch of those things. And then, again, we've now gone through a second iteration of... of corrections and additions and changes that our planning staff and our city attorney and other people within the city have noted, need to be fixed. This is now a package a second revision that's being brought to us that's been collected over a period of time to make these edits. There's many, many, many edits in this February 14, 2023 30826 proposal tonight. So, the timing is not specific to any other event that's occurring in the city. It's just, this is the time that this was bundled together and brought to us. Mr. Taormina, is there anything else that I'm missing? Mr. Taormina: I can assure this resident that these changes have been in the works for the past year. It was shortly after the adoption of the 2022 changes when we began. It was this same time last year that we were already finding items that needed modifications as part of a second round of amendments, which is why we're here today. Mr. Wilshaw: Ms. Cusin: Mr. Wilshaw: Ms. Cusin: Mr. Wilshaw: Ms. Cusin: Mr. Wilshaw: It's likely there's going to be a third and a fourth at some point in the future. So, this is just sort of a housekeeping item, really. But if there's anything specific about the any of these changes that you have a question about or... No, actually, I thought I was going to hear you go down the list this evening, and then I could take it and understand it, because I was trying to come here to understand all these changes a little bit better. It is quite lengthy. And I was really hoping that I would hear that. Okay, so obviously, that's not the case. Yeah, that's... I really thought we'd be going through this resolution, this one this one. Yeah, we don't line item. And it's more of a package approval that we're making tonight. Now this is gonna go to City Council if it's approved tonight, and they'll have to also have a public hearing, and there'll be an opportunity for public comments as well there. So, if in between now and then, you have an opportunity. We only make recommendations at the Planning Commission. So, they will ultimately make this language change if they if they choose to. So, you have an opportunity to still do additional research and formulate questions and ask at the City Council level as well. So, all right. Thank you. Appreciate it. Thank you for coming. Again, we do have a motion on the floor to approve by Mr. Long supported by Mr. Bongero. If there's no comments on the motion, a roll would be an order. Mr. Wilshaw, Chairman, declared the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution adopted. It will go on to City Council with an approving resolution.
