The developer WILL PRESENT their updated development plan to the Planning Commission TOMORROW, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6th. According to the packet submitted to the city, they still plan on putting 88 units onto the Solaronics property and are requesting Brownfield Assistance. The meeting is at 7 pm, 400 Sixth Street, Rochester, MI 48307. PLEASE ATTEND and let the PC know that we want them to respect our master plan as written. The Planning Commission will be voting on whether or not to proceed with a public hearing for this development on Monday, February 6, 2023. (The developer's site plan can be found in the Planning Commission Packet for 2/6/23 on the City's Website.)
Remember, Rochester's Master Plan lists Solaronics as TWO FAMILY RESIDENTIAL on the Future Land Use map. RT has the appearance and character of single-family housing. The developer wants to rezone to RM-2 to allow for a huge condo/apartment complex. We do NOT want this rezoning.
Contact City Council and the Planning Commission and ask them to stick with the Master Plan as it was written.
