Tonight's
Planning Commission meeting agenda includes a public hearing for a rezoning request by developers AVB and The Hinman Co. for the Prairies Golf Club. The club sits on a 116-acre property located at
5303 W Main Street. They want to conditionally rezone it from from R-2 and R-4, Residence Districts to the C, Local Business District, to support future plans for a large mixed-use development. The "conditional" part applies to the southeastern subsection of the property. If that area is not approved for development no later than two years from the date of the rezoning approval, it would revert back to the current R-2 and R-4 residential zoning designations.
The plan seems to have a lot of public opposition, and the packet states that it conflicts with multiple township standards and its master plan for the area. The Township's legal council and Planning Commission both are requesting that the request be denied, so we'll see where this goes. Low-res images below are extracted from the online packet -
