Gentle readers, it's #a2Council night in Ann Arbor. Here's the agenda.
The evening kicks off with a substantial, 19-item consent agenda. Of note, CA-16, resolution to authorize the administrator to sell development rights for 415 W Washington and 309 S Ashley (Kline Lot). Exciting to see these moving forward.
There are no public hearings on the docket this evening but there are 4 ordinance first readings. C-1 is for rezoning of 4.16 Acres from O (Office District) to R4E (Multiple-Family Dwelling District). This is for "The Crescent" development at 2525 Ann Arbor-Saline Road. This project will bring 262 new dwellings to an area well served with transit. You love to see it.
C-2 is to rezone 0.11 Acre from P (Parking) to C1 (Local Commercial) at 1007 Woodlawn Ave in Lower Burns Park. This is a small change, but it's great to get rid of parking.
C-3 updates the city's rules on purchasing, contracting, and selling. And C-4 adds a new chapter on Temporary Reduction of Distance Requirements Between K-12 Schools and Marijuana Facilities in they city's marijuana rules.
On to the resolutions. DC-1 is a resolution to appoint Karlene Goetz to the Public Market Advisory Commission as a Non-registered Elector. DC-2 is a Resolution to Correct the Appointment of Julie Lynch to the Employees Retirement System Board of Trustees. DC-3 is a resolution for Bicentennial Park Improvements.
DC-4 is a resolution to affirm the city's support for the Treeline Trail Project. Spoiler: we don't support the Treeline largely do to the opportunity cost of the project versus building actually useful non-motorized infrastructure. Read more here.
DC-5 is a resolution to revise the remainder of the 2025 Council Calendars.
That's all there is. Should be pretty short. Make sure to follow the blow by blow tonight with the #a2Council hashtag on Bluesky.
