Mile Road, Livonia, Michigan.
Mr. Daniel R. Andrew, Chairman, called the Public Hearing and Regular Meeting

Members absent: Kluver (personal business)
Messrs. John J. Nagy, Planning Director, H G Shane, Planner IV; Ralph Bakewell,
Planner IV; and Robert Feinberg, Assistant City Attorney were also present.
Mr. Andrew informed the audience that if a petition on the evening's agenda involved
a question of rezoning or vacating then the Planning Commission would only recommend
to the City Council that certain action ;'e taken whereupon the Council would
ultimately decide whether or not to approve or deny the petition. Further if a
petition involved a waiver of use request that is denied, the petitioner then had

Mr. Falk, Secretary announced the first item on the agenda,
b
1[W Petition 75-4-1-10 by Claude M. Howard to rezone property located at
the southwest corner of Ann Arbor Trail and Newburgh Road in the
Northeast 1/4 of Section 31, from RUF and C-1 to C-2.
Mr. Nagy: There is a letter on file from the City Engineer which states
there is no storm sewer. There is serious congestion in the
area. A restaurant will compound problems at this corner.
Consumers Power report no objection.
Fire Marshall reports that the traffic congestion makes it
difficult for fire apparatus to get through.
The Traffic Bureau objects because of traffic situation.
Mr. Howard: We want to put up a restaurant.
Mr. Andrew: What kind of restaurant?
Mr. Howard: Burger King.
Mr. Andrew: Do you have an option to purchase?
Mr. Howard: Yes, I am a real estate broker. I think a bank would generate
more traffic than a BugerKing. I was not aware of the drain problem.
Mr. Hand: Can you tell me who owns the property.
Mr. Howard: Arch and Evalie MacIntosh and directly to the west James Renny, Jr.
Resident: When was traffic survey taken?
36906 Ann Arbor
Trail
5807
Mr. Nagy: Recently that is the only date.
Resident: There is more traffic than that in the summer. I am opposed
to the petition.

Mr. Mackinder A Burger/ in that area would only be 1/4 mile from a high school.
36910 Ann Arbor
Trail
Mr. Simpson: When is the widening going to take place?
9811 Newburgh
Mr. Andrew: Late 1970-80 is forecast.
There was no one else present wishing to be heard and the Chairman closed the public
hearing on this item.
On a motion duly made by Mr. Scruggs, seconded by Mrs. Wisler and unanimously adopted,
it was
#5-90-75 RESOLVED that, pursuant to a public hearing having been held on
May 13, 1975 on Petition 75-4-1-10 by Claude M. Howard to rezone
property located at the southwest corner of Ann Arbor Trail and
Newburgh Road in the Northeast 1/4 of Section 31, from RUF and
C-1 to C-2 the City Planning Commission does hereby recommend to
the City Council that Petition 75-4-1-10 be denied for the following
reasons:
(1) The proposed change of zoning to C-2 would provide for high
intensity commercial uses that would be detrimental to the
nearby permitted uses of the area.
(2) The proposed change of zoning to C-2 would not promote the
orderly growth and development of the surrounding area.
(3) The proposed change of zoning which would permit high intensity
commercial uses would thereby generate an increased volume of
traffic which would be detrimental to the area as the abutting
roads, Ann Arbor Trail and Newburgh Road, lack the capacity
to accommodate the additional traffic other than what would be
permitted by local business uses.
(4) The Engineering Division, by letter dated April 16, 1975,
recommends against the granting of this petition for reasons of
lack of storm sewer capacity sufficient to service subject site;
the serious traffic congestion that already occurs in the surrounding
area, particularly at the intersection; Newburgh Road and Ann Arbor
Trail are not at full width and that additional right of way is
necessary to accommodate five lanes of pavement and the proposed
use would compound an existing traffic problem.
FURTHER RESOLVED that, notice of the above public hearing was published
in the official newspaper, the Livonia Observer-Eccentric, under date of
April 24, 1975 and a notice of such hearing was sent to the Detroit
Edison Company, Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company, Michigan Bell Telephone
