Mr. McCullough: The next item on the agenda is Petition Z-557 by Max
Weingarden who is requesting the rezoning of property located
on the northeast corner of Louise and Joy Road in the Southeast
1/4 of Section 35 from RUFB to PS.
I:
Mr. Max Weingarden was present. He presented a sketch of the proposed building.
Mr. Walker asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak?
It was ascertained that the requested rezoning was starting some PS zoning upon a
side street. Because of this and the fact that the petitioner would not have
sufficient room for parking without this property on the side street, the petitioner
was asked if he would be willing to amend his request so that the property on the
side street is zoned for P-1 instead of PS,
Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Angevine, supported by Mr. Anderson, it was
#6-124-62 RESOLVED that, the City Planning Commission does hereby give permission
to Max Weingarden, to amend Petit ion Z-557, requesting the rezoning of
property located on the northeast corner of Louise and Joy Road in the
Southeast 1/4 of Section 35 from RUFB to PS, so as to rezone Lot #259
from RUFB to P-1 and Lots 256 through 253, inclusive, from RUFB to PS.
A roll call vote on the foregoing resolution resulted in the following:
AYES: Milligan, Cameron, Greene, Angevine, Watson, Anderson, Kane,
Okerstrom and Walker
NAYS: None
Mr. Walker stated the motion is carried and the foregoing resolution is adopted.
Mr. Anderson requested a site plan of the proposed medical building indicating where
the parking will be on the property, where the curb cuts will be, etc. before any
action is taken on the rezoning. Mr. Weingarden concurred and stated he would see
that a site plan is forwarded immediately.
Mr. Walker declared this item would be taken under advisement until the next meeting.
Mr. McCullough: The next item on the agenda is Petition Z-559 by N. J.
Gerondale who is requesting the rezoning of property located
on the north side of Plymouth Road approxims tely 1,000
ft. West of Priscilla Lane in the Southwest 1/4 of Section
28 from RUA, C-1, and M-2 to C-2.
Mr. Louis Colombo, attorney representing Mr. Bill Brown was present along with Mr.
Bill Brown and Mr. N. J. Gerondale.
Mr. McCullough stated that the Alden Village Subdivision, east of the property in
the petition was just recently rezoned to RUA. In drawing up the zoning map an
error was made and the property in question is zoned at the present time M-2. In
the M-2 zone commercial uses are not allowed; this is the reason for this rezoning
petition.
IreMr. Gerondale stated the width of the property was 235 ft. , the depth 900 ft. The
proposed building will have 6,000 square ft.and will face Plymouth Road. This
building will have a showroom and a service area. Used cars will be parked outside.
He further stated that provision has been made for the future Wayne Road.
3501
It was ascertained that a protective wall would have to be erected where this
property abuts any residential property.
IEMr. R. Acchione, 34900 Plymouth Road, stated he would prefer not to have a wall
next to his property. He lived on Lot 10 in the Alden Village Subdivision which
was located next to the proposed rezoning.
Mr. Walker asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak? .
but
Mr. Acchione stated he had no objection to the rezoning,/he didn't want a wall
erected between his property and the property in question. Mr. Walker stated that
since his property was already zoned C-2, no wall would be required between the
two properties.
Mr. Joe Vanzo, 12066 Boston Post Road, representing the Tri-Sub Civic Association
stated they did not object to the rezoning but they did feel that Standish should
remain a dead end street because it was felt it would protect their subdivision
from the commercial and industrial property to the west. He said that they would
prefer the wall,if erected,to be close to the property line so that there is no
space between the wall and the residential property. It was felt that if this was
not done, it could result in this space being used for a runway for cars and a
Lover's Lane.
The question was raised as to whether or not it would be advisable to r ezone only
that portion that Mr. Brown would need for his business but Mr. Vanzo stated that
it would be beneficial to the subdivision that this property be rezoned for the
entire area to C-2. This would eliminate having M-2 next to the subdivision.
li: Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Cameron, supported by Mr. Milligan and unanimously
adopted, it was
#6-125-62 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on
Petition Z-559 as submitted by N. J. Cerondale for a change of
zoning in the Southwest 1/4 of Section 28 from M-2 to C-2, the
City Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council
that Petition Z-559 be granted for the following reasons:
(1) the land in question is located in an area designed for industrial
and commercial uses;
(b) the owner will erect a substantial taxable asset thereon;
(c) the cwner will not build within the right-of-way of proposed Wayne
Road which is the physical planning feature intended to separate
industrial and commercial uses from Alden Village,

3502

Mr. T. Dunston, representative from the Texaco Company was present, representing
Mr. Schroder. He explained the total width of the property along Schoolcraft was
365 ft. and on Merriman it was 275 ft. His company proposed to erect a gas station on
a portion of this property with a width of 175 ft. on Schoolcraft and along Merriman
150 ft. The request for rezoning was for the entire piece of property.
Mr. Schroder was asked if he intended to utilize the remaining portion not used by
the Texaco Company right away. He stated he had nothing in mind at the present time.
He was asked if he would be willing to amend his petition so that only that portion
to be used by the Texaco Company is rezoned to C-1, the remaining portion to stay
C-1? He answered he would rather see it rezoned to C-2 for the entire parcel but
if the Planning Commission would only agree to the area for the gas station he would
I[: have to go along with it.
Mr. Walker asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak?
Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Milligan, supported by Mr. Anderson, it was

#6-427-62 RESOLVED that, the City Planning Commission does hereby give permission

Petition Z-558 as submitted by Albert Schroder for a change of

City Planning Commission does hereby recommend to the City Council
that Petition Z-553, as amended by Resolution #6-127-62, be
granted for the following reasons:
(a) the area between Schoolcraft and Plymouth is intended as the
location for commercial and industrial uses;
(b) in this same area the Planning Commission's policy should be

Roads in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 27.
Mr. Okerstrom suggested that this item be taken under advisement in order to
examine it more thoroughly. Mr. McCullough informed the petitioner that this would
not hold them up since the City Council had to act upon the rezoning petition before
they would be able to build the gas station.

were purchasing the property immediately north of the church. They intended to use
the house as a residence for the minister, the rear portion of the property to be
used for parking. They want to expand their present building and in order to do so,
IIthey have to use some of the present parking area. This is reason for requesting
I permission to use the rear portion of the adjoining lot for parking.
Mr. Walker asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak.
Mr. Angevine asked if this shouldn't be a rezoning matter rather than a use petition?
Mr. McCullough answered that the P-1 zoning cannot be next to a residential use, only
industrial or commercial. This is the reason it is being handled in this manner.
Upon a motion duly made by Mr. Angevine, supported by Mr. Cameron and unanimously
adopted, it was
#6-129-62 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on
Tuesday, June 19, 1962 the City Planning Commission does hereby

to his property.

next to the area zoned commercial.
3505
There was a brief discussion on whether or not a greenbelt should be planted for the
full length of the property on the south property line. Mr. McCullough stated that
1100 feet of greenbelt would be quite expensive. Mr. Angevine stated that the
Planning Commission was only concerned with the fact that no building of parking area
will be any closer than twenty-five (25) feet of the residential area.

adopted, it was
#6-130-62 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a Public Hearing having been held on
