Ann Arbor City Council Preview: July 6, 2026

RETVRN!

Gentle readers, it's #a2Council night in Ann Arbor. Here's the agenda. 

The evening kicks off with a respectable, 21-item consent agenda. Of note, the purchase of 9 vehicles ranging from wood chippers to a bobcat to tow trucks. 

There are no public hearings on the docket or second readings of ordinances. There are, however 5 ordinance first readings. 

• C-1 is an update to the ordinance governing bicycle parking in new construction. 
• C-2 is a routine township island rezoning of 0.3 acres at 615 Riverview Drive. Disappointing to see these lots coming in at R1-B. 
• C-3 is another township island rezoning. This time of 0.26 acres at 2700 Fuller to Public Land. Nice to see more public land coming into the city. 
• C-4 is tonight's spicy chili. A PUD for 315 W Huron. This would involve rezoning the parcels  from D2 (Downtown Interface) to allow for a 10 story building. Overall, I think this is great, but I think the city needs to implement the CLUP so that obviously good projects like this don't need a bespoke PUD rezoning. 
• C-5 is an ordinance to enact protection to protect the city's oak trees from oak wilt.

There are three resolutions on the agenda this evening. 

• DC-1 is for the transfer of a liquor license from Anna's House at 445 E Eisenhower. 
• DC-2 is a resolution to approve temporary outdoor sales during art fair.
• DC-3 is a resolution to strengthen police training and planning and to develop amendments to the city code to protect places of worship. 

And that's it. Make sure you follow along on BlueSky.
