7. ZONING REVIEWS:

A. MP-01-21: HARTLAND TOWNSHIP: MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT.

The Livingston County Planning Department received correspondence from Hartland Township requesting Livingston County Planning Commission review and comment on the proposed 2020-2021 Amendment to the Hartland Township Future Land Use Map and Future Land Use Plan of the Hartland Township Comprehensive Plan.

Since the last 2015 update to the Hartland Township Comprehensive Plan, there have been some changes in Township land use, as well as additional studies that have been presented to the Planning Commission, that impact the Comprehensive Plan. The Hartland Township Planning Director outlines these impacts as follows:

 The Township hired Gibbs Group to perform a Retail Market Analysis for Commercial Retail and Restaurants.  The Township is in the process of extending municipal water down M-59 to serve several parcels.  The Township has reviewed several development projects, including mixed use, commercial, and multi-family projects that are located along M-59. Some of the projects would be served by the extension of municipal water.  In reviewing several proposed multi-family development projects, the Township has gained additional information on successful multi-family developments.  There are a series of on-going development trends in commercial retail and restaurant uses that are changing and the Township is very interested in making changes to accommodate these development trends.

LIVINGSTON COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION PAGE 3 DRAFT - MINUTES OF MEETING FEBRUARY 17, 2021

As part of these changes, the Hartland Township Planning Commission established a sub-committee to examine the Future Land Use Plan and Comprehensive Plan to determine if any revisions could be made to better accommodate these changes. The sub-committee incorporated the Residential Market Analysis and Retail Market Analysis as part of its examination.

Ultimately, the Township identified six (6) areas on the Future Land Use Map that should be amended to better accommodate potential future development, as well as protect the interests of existing property development.

Township Planning Commission Recommendation: Final Approval Pending.

Staff Recommendation: Approval. That the Livingston County Planning Commission concur with staff’s comments on the proposed exemplary amendments to the Hartland Township Comprehensive, and submit the foregoing comments to the Hartland Township Planning Commission.

Commission Discussion: Commissioner Anderson pointed out that there are many wetland areas located in the location represented by Area #2. They neglected to point this out. Director Kline-Hudson stated that this was possibly the reason they are planning it as Special Planning Area; perhaps the wetlands areas could be used as a water feature in a future development, so they are less impacted and utilized within an overall site plan.

Public Comment: None.

Commissioner Action:

Commissioner Action: IT WAS MOVED BY COMMISSIONER ANDERSON TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL. SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER CLUM. Motion passed: 6-0 Yea: Prokuda [X] Ikle [X] Clum [X] Anderson [X] Bowdoin [X] Call [X] Nay: None. Absent: Abramson.

8. OLD BUSINESS: A. Progress on Visits to Local Planning Commissions – Scheduling for local planning commission meeting attendance was discussed amongst Commissioners and Staff.

9. NEW BUSINESS:

A. Recognition of Laura Abramson – Commissioner Prokuda read aloud the certificate of recognition as presented to Planning Commissioner Abramson for her dedicated service to the Livingston County Planning Commission.

B. Planning Commission Vacancy – County Administration is currently conducting a search for Commissioner Abramson’s position. So far they have six resumes. The vacancy will be noticed on the County website until February 26.

10. REPORTS: None.

11. COMMISSIONERS HEARD AND CALL TO THE PUBLIC: Commissioner Prokuda gave a briefing to the rest of the Planning Commission regarding a possible Tyrone Township case coming before the County Planning Commission in March 2021. Commissioner Abramson spoke briefly about her time served on the County Planning Commission.

Stanford SUBJECT: Z-07-21 AICP, PEM Principal Planner Article 5 Site Standards, Section 5.26 Signs, 8.D Signs for Drive- Scott Barb Through Establishments AICP, PEM Principal Planner A summary of the proposed amendments are contained in this review. Proposed additions to existing text are noted in bold red underline, deletions in strikethrough, and staff comments are noted in bold, italic underline.

The Hartland Township Planning Director explains the project history of this proposed zoning ordinance text amendment in a February 4, 2021 memo forwarded by the Township. In the memo he states the following: 1.) Hartland Township’s current regulations allow for an approved drive-through business to have up to two (2) signs with a size limitation and specific location and they prohibit electronic signs 2.) The Hartland Township Planning Department has meet with representatives of the local McDonald’s restaurant and they stated that the trend in the fast-food restaurant industry is to replace existing manual menu boards with digital menu boards that are easily maintained, typically smaller in size, and provide a cleaner look, and 3.) Although the request is specifically for the McDonald’s restaurant at 10600 Highland Road, the request to modify the ordinance is much broader and could potentially apply to all businesses that have a drive-through lane and menu board. Since the original contact by McDonald’s, the Planning Department has been Department Information contacted by other drive-through restaurants that desire a similar sign.

Administration Building County Planning Staff Comments: Hartland Township researched several sign 304 E. Grand River Avenue standards from across the U.S. that address digital menu boards for Suite 206 Howell, MI 48843-2323 restaurants with drive-through service. They forwarded these sample ordinances to the Livingston County Planning Department.  Article 5 Sign Standards (517) 546-7555 Fax (517) 552-2347 Section 5.26 Signs, 8.D.

To the West: of Fowlerville Residential and Public Transitional Residential

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS: Soils / Topography: Conover and Miami loams dominate the sites and are typically well drained soils suitable for development.

Wetlands: The proposed parcels designated for rezoning only have minor wetland areas on site.

Vegetation: The majority of the parcels are in their natural vacant state; Residential areas are typically covered with manicured lawns and ornamental trees and bushes.

County Priority Natural Areas: According to the map “Livingston County’s High Quality Natural Areas”, there are larger tracts of Priority 3 natural areas scattered throughout the proposed parcels.

TOWNSHIP MASTER PLAN DESIGNATION:

The Township will be rezoning several parcels of land that are all designated as Medium Density Residential in the 2017 Handy Township Master Plan. These parcels are predominantly located along Cemetery Road (north to Sharpe Road and south to Van Riper Road) and Grand River Avenue. The Township Master Plan describes the Medium Density Residential designation in the following way:

‘The Medium Density Residential land use category is intended to provide for existing and future single-family detached residential neighborhoods with individual lot sizes of between approximately one-half (½) acre and 35,000 sq. ft., as well as typical support uses (such as schools, churches, parks, etc.). Overall densities within these areas, taking into account roads, storm water management, and open space, should generally not exceed one (1) dwelling unit per 35,000 sq. ft.’

The proposed rezoning is compatible with the Township Master Plan in that the Residential A District allows for 35,000 sq. ft. lots that may be reduced to ½ acre with public water and sewer availability. The Municipal District will be included with the next Township Master Plan update.

CASE NUMBER: Z-08-21 DATE: March 10, 2021 ANALYSIS BY: Scott Barb PAGE: 3

COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:

The 2018 Livingston County Master Plan does not direct future land use patterns, or development within Livingston County. Alternatively, it offers a county-wide land use perspective when reviewing potential rezoning amendments. The Land Use & Growth Management chapter of the plan includes decision-making recommendations regarding potential land use conflicts and promoting good land governance.

COUNTY PLANNING STAFF COMMENTS:

Handy Township has initiated the application to rezone ninety-six (96) parcels of land from Residential B to Residential A and the newly created Municipal District (MD). Residential B zoning requires developments to have access to public water and sewer when available. The Residential A zoning does not have this requirement, and therefore, gives property owners the option of development or not.

The Township will be rezoning one of the parcels to the new Municipal District that will become effective upon approval of both the rezoning and the associated ordinance amendments. This intent is to provide the Township with adequate land resources for the purpose of administering important public services and other public or quasi-public institutions and offices.

Section 18.5 (F) of the Handy Township Zoning Ordinance establishes the criteria and factors that should be considered by the planning commission when rezoning of land is considered. These factors are:

1. Whether the rezoning is consistent with the policies and uses proposed for that area in the Township’s Master Land Use Plan. The Township Master Plan has designated much of this area as medium density residential that is aligned with the ½ acre to 35,000 sq. ft. lot requirements of the proposed zoning district. Parcels along Grand River Avenue are part of a Township development corridor and are not part of the proposed rezoning.

2. Whether all of the uses allowed under the proposed rezoning would be compatible with other zones and uses in the surrounding area. The proposed rezoning to Residential A would be compatible with the other nearby zoning districts that include Agricultural Residential. To the west of the proposed rezoned parcels is the Village of Fowlerville that includes varying land uses including the high school west of the northern parcels and transitional residential to the west of the southern group of parcels to be rezoned.

3. Whether any public services and facilities and/or natural features would be significantly adversely impacted by a development or use allowed under the requested rezoning. The rezoning proposal is reducing the impact of development by providing an option to develop with public water and sewer under Residential A zoning. RB zoning requires a public water and sanitary sewer connection for development of parcels.

4. Whether the uses allowed under the proposed rezoning would be equally or better suited to the area than uses allowed under the current zoning of the land. The rezoning proposal allows property owners the option of utilizing public water and sewer infrastructure rather than it being a requirement under RB zoning. To the east of the proposed rezoning, Agricultural Residential land uses are noted and Residential A zoning would be an excellent transition to the denser Village of Fowlerville.

We believe the proposed rezoning of the subject parcels to their desired designation will allow the Township the potential to have development opportunities that are flexible for existing property owners and better aligned with the current zoning of the Township. The Municipal District parcel will provide additional land for the Township to utilize as it continues to grow and develop with potential expansion of township related uses in the future.

CASE NUMBER: Z-08-21 DATE: March 10, 2021 ANALYSIS BY: Scott Barb PAGE: 4

COUNTY PLANNING STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

APPROVAL. Staff believes the proposed rezoning of the subject properties are compatible with the Handy Township Master Plan and provide residents and the Township with more options and development flexibility.
