Program Year 5 Action Plan General Questions response:

Community Profile

The City of Lansing is part of the mid-Michigan region and is the urban hub of theGreater Lansing Area, which includes the counties of Ingham, Eaton and Clinton.The local economy has historically been developed around three major anchors -automobile manufacturing, state government and Michigan State University. Of late,manufacturing has been declining in prominence, with health care and insuranceemerging as a growing source of local employment. While this transition takesplace, unemployment has increased steadily and now amounts to about 10%citywide. Just as the city is in the midst of grappling with this economic transition, it

has been hit with a spike in foreclosures, falling property values and a dramaticincrease in vacant property.

The 2000 Census tabulated Lansing 's total population at 119,128. Population withinthe City of Lansing has been declining steadily for two decades, although it has beenrising slowly in the region. As of 2006, according to the Census Bureau's AmericanFact Finder, total population in Lansing had dropped 7% to 110,619. The number ofvacant housing units almost doubled from 3,654 to 6,451 during the same period.By 2007, the last year for which census estimates are available, 7,164 units werevacant; comprising almost 13% of the city's housing stock. Population within theCity of Lansing is expected to continue to decline slightly through about 2010 andthen stabilize during the next decade.

Geographic Target Areas

All CDBG and HOME funds the City receives are used to support low and moderate-income persons and neighborhoods. Most of the block groups within the city arepredominately populated with families at or below 80% of area median income andare eligible areas for CDBG assistance. Many housing and community developmentprograms funded in the 2008 Plan are available to eligible households citywide.However, five focus areas are prioritized for new infill housing construction and fullrehabilitation of distressed properties.

The concentrations of low-income minority residents reside on the west and northsides of the Lansing community as well as scattered pockets in other parts of theCity of Lansing. Assistance will continue to be provided to residents in the City ofLansing in CDBG eligible areas and to eligible citizens in non-CDBG eligible areas. InProgram Year 5, the level of priority in terms of addressing the needs of the citizenswas based on the Five-Year plan, priorities established in prior action plans andcurrent needs idenitified by the community. High priority is given to new infillhousing construction and full rehabilitation of distressed properties in the five priorityareas identified.

High priority is given to working together with other agencies in support of citizen-led neighborhood revitalization programs with specific goals related to improvinghousing, crime reduction, youth development, business development or retention

. and improved health and safety.

Program Year 5 Action Plan Extension Managing the Process response:

The City of Lansing Department of Planning and Neighborhood Development is thelead agency responsible for coordinating the Consolidated Planning and SubmissionProcess and Action Plans. The City of Lansing has coordinated with participationfrom many other agencies citywide to develop the Year Five Action Plan for 2010. Asin the past, this process incorporated other planning efforts and strategic planningdocuments including the Lansing Housing Partnership (LHP), Comprehensive HousingAffordability Strategy (CHAS), the Enterprise Community (EC) Plan Application andthe Lansing Housing Commission's Plan as well as the current consolidated planprocess. Both housing and non-housing issues were addressed during theseplanning processes. Again, these issues were discussed and suggestions made onways to better serve the needs of the target populations. Many of the agenciesdiscussed how they exhaust their funds in trying to serve their clients' special needs.However, these agencies continue to look at innovative ways of providing services totheir clients.

Partnerships continue to be developed between state and local agencies in efforts toidentify the type of housing and community development needs existing in Lansing.The City continues to consult with agencies/organizations such as the LansingHousing Commission, Lansing Area Aids Network, Capital Area Center forIndependent Living, Continuum of Care Agencies, Tri-County Office on Aging,Michigan Department of Public Health, Michigan Department of Human services,Ingham County Land Bank Fast Track Authority, Ingham County Health Department,Michigan State University, Michigan State Housing Development Authority, alsoincluding HERO (Homeowner Education and Resource Opportunities), ForeclosurePrevention groups and other state and local organizations and jurisdictions were

involved in the process in development of the plan. Again, the City of Lansing willcontinue to incorporate many of the strategies from its "Enterprise Community"application to address the non-housing needs. Economic and commercialredevelopment work is aligned with the Main Street principles. The City meetsregularly with local and state agencies, neighborhood organizations and citizens toaddress the housing and community development needs of the extrerriely low-to-moderate income residents in the city. In the development of its strategies, the citykept in mind the three basic goals of the program: 1) To provide decent housing; 2)To provide a suitable living environment and 3) To expand economic opportunities. -

Also, the City of Lansing followed its existing Citizens Participation Plan in terms ofthe process of participation. The Citizen Participation Plan incorporates the generalpublic participation process of the city. Our CDBG mailing list contains variousagencies and organizations that we identify as the stakeholders or those whoexpressed interest in receiving notices by mail. Recipients of our CDBG, HOME andESG funding are on the list as well as neighborhood organizations, agencies thatserve the special needs population, etc. These groups and organizations are notifiedevery year of the consolidated planning process. Also, community meetings are setwithin the community to gain input from the organizations and the populations thatthey serve. The public is also aware of the participation process because theinformation is advertised in a local newspaper, City Pulse, on public access television,as well as posted at the Library and other public places.

Citizen Participation

Citizen Participation is an important factor in the development of the ConsolidatedPlan/Action Plan. The City of Lansing's citizen participation process hascomprehensively examined the necessities related to the housing, industrial, andcommercial community development. The process considers needs for economicgroundwork and development, as well as the needs related to human interaction andthe social environment. The objective of the process has been to formulate strategiesand programs to address identified needs. The process is open to any interestedparty or organization, and facilitated by the participation of a wide range of groupsand individuals concerned with community development issues. In the developmentof the Action Plan, the City of Lansing considered all previous strategic planningdocuments which includes the Lansing Housing Partnership, the CHAS, along withthe Enterprise Community Plan and the Lansing Housing Commission's Plan.Information on the current housing market lending practices and foreclosures areconsidered. Input from citizens was also incorporated into these efforts.

The Citizen Participation Process is intended to assure that the citizens of thecommunity and organizations concerned with housing and commnuity developmentwill have every opportunity to participate in the planning and utilization ofcommunity development funds. The opportunity for citizens to participate incommnuity development goes beyond the formal process as outlined in the City ofLansing ' s Citizen Participation Plan (Section 91.105 of the Federal regulations and inaccordance to legislative changes to the CDBG Entitlement Program under theHousing and Urban-Rural Recovery Act of 1983). In summary, the key steps in theprocess include: community meetings held in August and September, a publichearing held before the Planning Board on community needs in October, Novemberor December. This hearing will provide citizens an opportunity to present their viewson community development housing needs. Community meetings include citizens,other local jurisdictions, state agencies, other city departments, special needs groupsand community development activities. Input is also accepted from interestedcitizens throughout the year.

The Public Hearing on the community needs for the Action Plan was held onDecember 1, 2009. Another hearing was held before Planning Board on February 2,2010 on the proposed program objectives and projected use of Federal formulaprogram funds. Notices of these hearings were published in a local newspaper, theLansing City Pulse, mailed to known citizens groups and other organizationsconcerned with housing and community development issues. Notices of publichearings also appears on the City of Lansing's cable TV information channel. Asimilar process is followed for public hearings at the City Council level.

A draft of the summary plan was made available for public review and comments fora 30 day period March 10, 2010 - April 9, 2010. A notice of the opportunity forpublic review and comment was published in the Lansing City Pulse, made availableat the Capital Area District Library, the City Clerk's office, the Department ofPlanning and Neighborhood Development as well as televised on the public accesschannel and the City of Lansing Department of Planning and NeighborhoodDevelopment, Development Office website available for public review and comments.The City will respond in writing in fifteen days (15) to any written or oral commentsor views of citizens submitted during this comment period. A summary of commentsor views and the city's response is included in the Consolidated Plan submission.During the review period, there were no comments received either orally or written.

The facility where the public hearings are held is barrier free to accommodatepersons with disabilities. In the event that a significant number of non-Englishspeaking residents attend the public hearing, the city will provide a resource personfor translation purposes.

Program Year 5 Action Plan Barriers to Affordable Housing response:

The Housing Affordability Committee of the Lansing Housing Partnership identifiedthe following public policy barriers and recommended action to reduce those barriers.Actions is these areas are ongoing:

Public Policy Issues/Recommended Actions

BUILDING AND HOUSING CODES

Prescriptive housing code standards frequently prevent use of certain areas of olderhousing units because of area and/or ceiling height requirements set forth in thecode. Lansing has a significant number of homes built in the 20's and 30's withattics that do not meet such requirements and, therefore, cannot be legallyconverted into living space such as bedrooms.

Solution:

Where appropriate remove prescriptive and substitute regulations suchas minimum window sizes and minimum ceiling heights, etc., to performancestandards that will meet minimum public health and safety needs.

Building and Mechanical Codes may establish standards for new construction thatadd to the cost of construction and exceed minimum safety needs of the community.

Solution:

Explore Building and Mechanical Codes to identify requirements thatcould be reduced without adversely affecting community health and safetystandards. Consider setting separate construction standards for one and two familyconstruction and remodeling.

Inspection fees charged by the City add to the cost of affordable housing.

Solution:

All fees charged for inspection and associated administrative servicesshould be periodically reviewed to ensure that they represent the cost of providingsuch services.


_Version __2..0.

Jurisdiction

Needed housing is being taken out of service within the city for a variety of reasons.

Solution:

Review City's dangerous building demolition procedure to ensure thatrestorable housing is not unnecessarily demolished.

Solution:

Consider establishing a requirement that will replace housing taken outof service for industrial or commercial expansion.

Solution:

Work with the Ingham County Land Bank on residential properties.These properties'can be renovated by the Land Bank or with the assistance of cityand non-profit housing groups.

Solution:

Establish a procedure that will provide for the rehab of substandardproperties to include the establishment of a voluntary repair program to help seniorsmaintain their homes.

Today's high cost of energy adversely impacts on the ability of families to makemortgage/rent payments and pay utility bills.

Solution:

Explore establishing retrofit energy conservation requirements forexisting buildings when it is determined that such modifications are cost effectiveand will significantly reduce utility costs.

Solution:

Work toward the goal of achieving the highest possible energy starrating for all rehab and new construction activity funded by the city.

Accelerated deterioration of housing caused by neglect and improper use is costlyand reduces the availability of affordable housing.

Solution:

Reinforce Housing and Zoning Code regulations where possible toaddress the responsibilities of building occupants.

Solution:

Enforce monitoring fees and other sanctions for violators that willencourage them to improve health and safety standards.

Solution:

Establish mandatory training requirements for convicted violators thatwill encourage them to improve health and safety standards.

There are still many people in Lansing that do not have basic home repair tools, orknowledge of how to maintain and fix the homes they live in.

Solution:

Provide educational programs in neighborhoods to teach tenants basichome repair, elementary housekeeping, and how to use various repair tools andhousekeeping tools. Also, a neighborhood level tool bank and assistance resourcefor helping citizens to keep their homes in good order.

PLANNING AND ZONING

The cost of developing new residential subdivisions exceed the concept ofaffordability often due to the high costs for roads, infrastructure and excessivespatial requirements of the City's Subdivision regulations. The costs for

_Fifth. Program Year Action Plan

17

Version 2.0

Jurisdiction

improvements are passed on to the home buyer, therefore a number of suggestedmodifications to the Subdivision Ordinance could assist in keeping site costs lower.

Solution:

Lot Lines and Setbacks. The concept of "0" Lot lines may be applied tonew construction and provides housing styles at lower costs and on smaller lots.Reduced setbacks from front property lines to building lines also would lower costsbecause lots could be smaller. Construction costs for shorter driveways and othersite improvements may be significantly reduced.

Solution:

Storm Water Retention. Provisions for on-site retention of stormwater runoff may reduce the higher costs of storm sewer installation.

Solution:

More Extensive Use of Manufactured Homes. Manufacturedconstruction for housing development to include modular or panelized homesmeeting Building Code standards could be encouraged. Provisions are needed toallow for removal of deteriorated manufactured structures which have becomeeyesores. Such provisions would have to be part of the City's ordinances. The Cityshould address existing development with architectural standards which wouldstipulate the placement and location for manufactured housing.

In older parts of Lansing, more flexible provisions such as variances for infill housingdevelopment, redevelopment or renovating existing housing can be used to aid inmaintaining a supply of affordable housing.

Solution:

Use of Alleys. In areas where public alleyways are located, abuttingproperties should utilize them for vehicular access and eliminate the individualdriveways off the city street. This would reduce replacement/maintenance costs andeliminate drive approaches which offer savings for both the property owner and theCity. Public alleys would be more conducive for common parking area to serve theneighboring residential uses.

ZONING CODE

The Zoning Code is designed to maintain and protect the environmental quality ofresidential neighborhoods. To make the supply of affordable housing more availablevarious changes to the zoning ordinance could be made for providing more intenseuse of residentially zoned properties.Parking Requirements for multiple family zoning classifications could be reduced.Multiple family housing development along major transit corridors would requirefewer spaces per unit than apartments developed on lower classified streets. A leaseagreement with tenants could be required to limit the number of cars a tenant wouldbe allowed to have on the property. A street permit system may be required forneighboring residential streets to avoid apartment dweller/visitor use.

Solution:

More Intense Housing Development. Condominium techniques couldincrease home ownership at a lower cost and could be applied on an area basis.Centralized tool banking, property maintenance equipment and self help programsneed to be part of every neighborhood or housing development with housingidentified in the lower cost ranges. Education should be provided for lower incomehome owners and renters to handle minor maintenance, housekeeping and minorrepairs. Encourage owner occupancy for higher density multiple family housing orunit conversions with enforcement provisions to reduce density if the structurebecomes abandoned.


18

Version 2.0

Jurisdiction

Solution:

Non-Residential Structure Conversion. Presently the Zoning codeprevents residential use in many non-residential zones. In order to increase theavailability and variety of affordable housing, changes to the code may beconsidered to allow residential use of non-residential structures in all zones. Thiswould allow more productive and effective use of 2nd and 3rd floors of nonresidential structures. It provides more security for neighborhood areas and usesthe defensible space concept in non-residential areas. Lower costs and variety ofhousing types would be available in the market. This would help preserve theresidential character of buildings formerly built and used as residential structures innon-residential areas especially along Michigan Avenue, Larch Street and in olderparts of Lansing.

Solution:

Land Use Administrative Fees. Reducing application fees for rezoningand similar municipal administrative requirements would have little to no impact onproviding more affordable housing. The amount of the fee to rezone or have a siteplan review is minimal in comparison to the cost of development, variance or reuseproposed. The fee structure should be reviewed relative to costs to determine if theyare skewed and appropriate modifications made in favor of rehab and upgrade asnecessary. Incentives in the fee structure may be made by the City for non profitsand occupant owners who desire to renovate, rehab or preserve existing units ofconstruct infill housing units. Fines, fees and other funding could be channeled to arevolving fund to assist occupant owners on fixed income to fix up their homes.

The City is losing a large number of housing units each year which could be availablefor the Affordable Housing market. Many structures are removed by businessowners and developers who want to expand non-residential uses. The ownersexpect to obtain rezoning after removal of'uses which are often contrary to theneighborhood plan.

Solution:

Establish a stiff monetary penalty for removing housing structureswith no demolition permit. Establish a revolving fund where demolitions ofresidential structures by private or public actions for any reason other thancondemnation for condition will require the demolition agency to contribute anamount of money equal to the demo costs. This fund could be used for assisting inthe restoration of old construction and new residential structures. It can be seedmoney or match funds. Fines for unauthorized removal would be channeled to thisaccount.

The Continuum will continue to rely on its Homeless Management InformationSystem (HMIS) for monthly point in time data. HMIS is a statewide computer systemcapable of gathering comprehensive data about the clients being served and theservices being provided, while maintaining the privacy of the clients. Also, the City ofLansing has staff working directly with GLHRN and are serving as members of theContinuum of Care. The City of Lansing Human Relations and Community ServicesDepartment will continue to assist the homeless with housing needs. The grant willbe used to rehabilitate houses to be occupied by the homeless. The City will continueto work with several agencies to accomplish this task, including the Ingham CountyLand Bank. Another component of this partnership includes the One Church/OneFamily, faith-based initiative, formed to assist in mentoring and providing assistanceto meet the needs of the homeless population as they are preparing for housing.

There are several subcommittees of the whole that meet on a monthly basis toaddress the needs of the homeless. For example, the general membership meetsthe third Thursday of each month and the Strategy and Funding committee meetsthe second Thursday of the month. There are several resources available in thecommunity for the homeless population. For example, the Homeless AssistanceRecovery Program (HARP), a homeless referral program providing assistance toindividual/families in need of housing and other supportive services. The Networkhas received several accolades for their outstanding collaborative approach tocreating a comprehensive, visionary, realistic contiuum of care plan to help thehomeless.

The GLHRN has participated in a discharge planning process. Several meetings havebeen held and a policy for the discharge planning process is in the works.

Also, the GLHRN, Power of We Corporation, Ingham County Department of HumanServices and other community organizations is a continuing collaborative effortamong several organizations to implement the ten-year plan, "Housing Ingham" toend chronic homelessness in the greater Lansing community. Highlights of the ten-year plan are included in the additional information section of the document.

The City of Lansing Human Relations and Community Services (HRCS) Departmentwill continue to work with various agencies with the Continuum to identify effectiveways in which to reduce the cost of housing families that are finding themselveshomeless as a result of emergency evictions. The 2008 Homeless Profile for theGreater Lansing area shows that 64.65% of the 480 homeless households consist offemale single parent households. HRCS staff is finding the displacement of largerfamily households (five of more) due to sub-standard housing is occurring morefrequently than in the past. Alternatively, the unavailability of replacement housingon such short notice that is suitable to meeting the sheer size of these families isalso occurring. The combination of these two trends is having a direct impact on thecost to motel when there is no shelter space available for the families. Discussion hasensued with the GLHRN as to how to meet these challenges. The HRCS Departmentis considering the cost-effectiveness in the operation of several large houses withinthe existing housing stock as an effort to assist on a short-term period thesehomeless families, which are in transition from homelessness due to specificcircumstances, to permanent stabilized housing.

Program Year 5 Action Plan Extension Community Development response:

Lansing community resources exist in a variety of forms often operating from verydifferent political and philosophical points of view and almost always limited in funds.Lansing is very fortunate to have a wide array of resources from which to drawstretching across a broad base of educational institutions, manufacturers, faith-basedorganizations, health care providers, non-profits and government agencies. Lansingis also the hub for many insurance, union, banking and legal and advocacyorganizations and strong efforts will be continued to retain these businesses withinthe downtown area.

A diversified employment base is evident in the capital area by virtue of governmentoffices, corporate and institutional headquarters, convention facilities and uniquecommercial and office business opportunities. The capital area is a center forfederal, state, county, and local government, offering a wide range of employmentopportunities. The City of Lansing offers educational and vocational trainingopportunities through the Lansing Community College, Cooley Law College andMichigan State University in nearby East Lansing. All of these institutions, theirinvolvement and contribution, are a tremendous resource to the. community. TheGreater Lansing area has several medical institutions and education and trainingcenters. Sparrow Hospital is a full service medical facility and is part of a coalition ofhealth-based organizations that offer opportunities for individuals to participate injob training in the field of health care. Other resources important to communitydevelopment are churches, neighborhood organizations, charity organizations, andservice clubs. These organizations provide a host of social and human services.

Antipoverty Strategy

1. Describe the actions that will take place during the next year to reduce thenumber of poverty level families.

Program Year 5 Action Plan Extension Antipoverty Strategy response:

Poverty is an issue not easily addressed or controlled by the City. Economic factorsoften beyond the control of the community result in loss of jobs and reduction inpersonal income, the primary causes of poverty. Traditional types of economicdevelopment intended to create jobs and provide household income are the mostimportant components of an anti-poverty strategy. The City is actively involved on alocal and regional scale in promoting this kind of growth. Other activities sponsoredby the City, other housing providers and service agencies and the private sector,however, combat poverty in ways just as effective as the more traditional types ofeconomic development. They are as follows:

A. Affordable Housing Programs - This document outlines rehabilitationand weatherization programs sponsored by the City, other governmentalunits, non-profit housing corporations, service providers and the privatesector. These programs are intended to not only provide affordable, safeand decent housing to low-moderate income families, but also to allowthese families more economic freedom by reducing or eliminating costburden for housing they often face, and reducing payments for utilities.

B. Public Housing Initiatives - These activities sponsored by the LansingHousing Commission for public housing residents are attempts ataddressing the root causes of poverty, lack of job training and/oreducation. The initiatives provide opportunities for residents to improvetheir knowledge and skills, critical steps in being able to compete forhigher paying jobs. Activities of this type combined with opportunities foraffordable housing offer public housing residents a chance at selfsufficiency and a way to break away from the cycle of poverty. Ofparticular strategic importance is that such programs are targeted tochildren and teenagers. Other activities associated with these programs,such as child care, also contribute to the comprehensive approach toimproving the economic condition of public housing residents.

C. Supportive Service Programs - The supportive services offered to specialhousing needs groups include job training and education programs. The

objective is again to give clients the opportunity to achieve self sufficiency bygiving them the skills to compete for better paying jobs. Such efforts includeparticipation of area school districts, local institutions of higher learning andemployers themselves and faith-based organizations including churches.Programs are sponsored by some agencies with particular clientele but alsoby agencies serving the general population.

D. Private industry has established Human Resource programs to retrainindividuals who have lost their jobs. Retraining will allow these individuals tocompete for other employment opportunities.

E. Economic development initiatives are intended to provide individuals withthe education and training necessary to obtain higher paying jobs and alsointended to enable the business community to expand and create more jobsin the community. CDBG resources are specificalyy targeted to:

The City of Lansing will continue its efforts to assure that fair housing principles arefollowed in the city. CDBG funds will be budgeted to sponsor the following fairhousing initiatives: continue to explore the possiblility of a fair housing center in thecity; continue to update the City of Lansing's Analysis of Impediments to FairHousing (AI) in conjunction with the City of East Lansing; work with communityorganizations to educate citizens about fair housing issues and pursue enforcementin cases of housing discrimination; work to eliminate predatory lending practices thatdisproportionately affect 'protected groups. The City of Lansing Human Resources andCommunity Services (HRCS) Department will continue to respond to inquiries andcomplaints relative to fair housing. The City is actively working with the Fair HousingCenter of Southeast Michigan and Michigan State University College of Law toinvestigate issues related to fair housing in the community. In addition to ongoingreview and analysis, outreach and educational programs will be conducted with theFair Housing Center of Southeast Michigan. The HRCS Department and theDevelopment Office participate in the preparation of this analysis and gathering ofdata as well as engage in implementation of strategies regarding fair housing andeducation. The City Attorney's Office provides legal assistance. Other participantsare also included to conduct research investigative studies.

In terms of the City of Lansing working with faith-based organizations, most of thehomeless shelters are grounded on religious principles. Several of the emergencyservices in Lansing are supported or operated by faith-based organizations. Citystaff plays an active role with its involvement with the homeless population byserving on several boards to address the needs of this community. City Staff is partof the community's Continuum of Care planning activities together with these faith-based'organization. This partnership includes: (1) assistance in fundingrehabilitation and new construction of housing units by Habitat (2) collaboration topromote neighborhood improvements in conjunction with Habitat's Vision 2020Initative.

As part of the Recovery Act, the City of Lansing will receive NeighborhoodStabilization funds of $5,992,160, an additional $587,391 in CDBG and $898,823 inHomeless Prevention funds. These programs are included as an amendment to thecity's current Action Plan. Those funds will carryover into this fiscal year.

Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) is a new program that funds a set ofactivities - housing acquisition, rehabilitation, demolition, home financing assistanceand others, related to vacant foreclosed properties. The amount of NSP fundingallocated to the City of Lansing will help address critical housing needs related toforeclosure and abandonment, but will not be sufficient to achieve full correction.The City will prioritize the use of funds where it will encourage other investment andinstill confidence in neighborhoods. All but 25% of these funds can be used to assistthe middle income, which are those at 80-120% of area median income; a group thecity is not normally able to assist.

NSP programs will be targeted to neighborhoods where they are likely to work best.Programs like Down Payment Assistance (without rehabilitation) and HomebuyerPurchase Rehabilitation (HPR) (with modest rehabilitation) will work better inneighborhoods where property needs less rehabilitation and market values arestronger. Acquisition, Development and Resale (ADR) is better suited to

neighborhoods where the housing stock needs complete renovation to appeal tocurrent buyers.

NSP funds will be used to acquire and renovate foreclosed, bank-owned homes toexpand the number of Permanent Supportive Housing units available for lease tohomeless families with income at or below 50°h of area median income.Notwithstanding the high rate of vacant units in Lansing, well-located, good quality,affordable units suitable for large families are scarce. At present, homeless familiesare housed for too long in costly emergency housing waiting to find appropriatehousing.

Foreclosed homes, with special priority on units with 4 or more bedrooms, will beacquired and rehabilitated with NSP funds for use as permanent supportive housing.Acquisitions may occur in any NSP eligible area of the City. Families will be linkedwith support services provided by public and private human service agencies. Eachhomeless family will also be offered assistance from a faith-based group willing tohelp with activities of daily living and to be available for a mentoring and positiverole model relationship. The complete NSP plan is included under additional files foryear Five in the document.

The Community Development Block Grant program enables local governments toundertake a wide range of activities intended to create suitable living environments,provide decent affordable housing and create economic opportunities, primarily forpersons of low and moderate income.

The Homelessness Prevention Fund will provide financial assistance and services toprevent individuals and families from becoming homeless and help those who areexperiencing homelessness to be quickly re-housed and stabilized. The funds underthis program are intended to target individuals and families who would be homelessbut for this assistance. The funds will provide for a variety of assistance, including:short-term or medium-term rental assistance and housing relocation andstabilization services, including such activities as mediation, credit counseling,security or utility deposits, utility payments, moving cost assistance, and casemanagement.

RE: SLU-1-2010, 5750 S. Cedar StreetSpecial Land Use Permit - Church

Dear Mayor Bernero:

The Lansing Planning Board, at its regular meeting held on April 6, 2010, voted (3-1) to recommendapproval of the request by Abundant Grace Faith Church to utilize the building at 5750 S. CedarStreet (former Builder's Square/Farmer Jack) for a church. The subject property is zoned "J" Parking,"G-2" Wholesale, "F" Commercial and "H" Light Industrial districts. Churches with associatedparking are permitted in these districts, if a Special Land Use permit is approved by the Lansing CityCouncil.

The majority of the Planning Board found, based on testimony, evidence and the staff report, that theproposed special land use is capable of meeting all of the criteria established by Section 1282.02(f)(1-9) of the Zoning Ordinance for granting special land use permits. Based upon this findings, thePlanning Board recommended approval of SLU-1-2010.

At the Planning Board public hearing held on March 16, 2010, three representatives of the churchspoke in favor of the request and no other comments were received.

Following your review of this matter, please refer it to the City Council for its consideration.

The proposed church will hold regular services on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. Thechurch will also hold morning services on the first Saturday of each month, evening services on thefirst and third Sundays of each month and men's fellowship on the second Saturday of each month.The church will also occasionally hold special services and bible teachings. The existing churchaverages around 230-250 members. It was incorporated in May of 2007 and had approximately 60members at that time. The proposed church will be initially designed for approximately 500 seatsin the sanctuary/auditorium with the ability to hold up to 1,200. There will be full-time church staffin the building during the week The allowable capacity of the church is determined by the amountof available on-site parking or parking that can be leased from another property owner within 300 feetof the site. The Zoning Ordinance requires 1 parking space for each 3 seats or 6 linear feet of pewin the main area of worship. There are 470 parking spaces on the site (including the small parcel thatbetween the driveways).

AGENCY RESPONSES:Sent 3/9/09, Due on 3/23/09

Assessing:

BWL:

Building Safety:

No objection provided they obtain property permits to change the usegroup from "M" to "A-3" and complete any required alterations.

Code Compliance:

Development: Use of this parcel as a church is inconsistent with the highconcentration of commercial/retail uses on S. Cedar Street, a majorcorridor with transit and traffic designed to serve high volumebusinesses.

Fire Marshal:

LPD:

Parks & Recreation:

No comment

Public Service: There is a 66" storm drain and an 18" sanitary sewer run along thewest and north sides of the property. The detention pond off the NEbuilding corner will need to be restored to its design capacity.

Transportation:

The Transportation and Parking Office has no objection to theissuance of the special land use subject to the following comments.

This site had a traffic signal at the entrance when the previous businesswas open. Although the traffic characteristics of the proposed usemay be different that the previous use, if this church grows in size anduses all space on the site, a traffic signal may again be needed. Thistraffic signal would be need to be approved by the Michigan


Page 3

Department of Transportation. All costs for the traffic signal, up to$50,000 for installation and $1,000 peryear for maintenance, wouldbe the responsibility of the property owner.

Depending on the size of the church and its use at the time ofoccupancy, a traffic impact study may be required to determine ifthere will be any traffic issues at the main entrance.

ANALYSIS

Section 1282.03(f)(1)-(2) sets forth the criteria which must be used to evaluate a Special Land Usepermit request. The criteria and evaluation are as follows.

1. Is the proposed special land use designed, constructed, operated and maintained in amanner harmonious with the character of adjacent property and the surrounding area?

The S. Cedar Street corridor is characterized by commercial and quasi-industrial land uses.While churches are an important and very valuable component of any community, so arevibrant commercial districts. Church activities are generally infrequent and occur outside ofnormal business hours. The majority of the time, there is little activity and large vacantparking lots which detracts, rather than contributes to a commercial environment.

2. Will the proposed special land use.change the essential character of the surroundingarea?

The proposed church will change the commercial character of the area. The ZoningOrdinance makes provisions for allowing churches in all zoning districts, including residentialand office, where the conditions for evaluating special land use permits can be satisfied.Conversely, commercial uses, are limited to major corridors. S. Cedar Street is zoned,master planned and designed for customer-oriented, commercial uses that generate a highvolume of traffic on a daily basis. Given the location of the site and the surrounding zoningand land use patterns in the area, a church does not appear to be the most appropriate use ofthe property.

3. Will the proposed special land use interfere with the enjoyment of adjacent property?

The primary concern with churches in terms of interfering with the enjoyment of adjacentproperties is the potential conflicts with liquor licenses. By state law, a church has anopportunity to object to all new liquor licenses within 500 feet of the church property. In thiscase, there are commercially zoned properties directly to the north, south and east of thesubject property. Although there is already a school on the property to the south that frontsalong Miller Road, the church property would be much closer to the commercial propertiesalong S. Cedar Street.

4. Will the proposed special land use represent an improvement to the use or characterof property under consideration and the surrounding area in general, and will the usebe in keeping with the natural environment of the lot?

The proposed church will not represent an improvement to the use or character of theproperty or the surrounding area. Cedar Street is a principal arterial that is designed to carrya high volume of traffic, which is why the properties that front along S. Cedar are zoned andmaster planned for commercial land use. The church will result in a hole of little activity,with a great deal of parking, within an otherwise active commercial area.

With regard to the natural environment of the lot, no changes are proposed for the site. Thereis a landscape strip around the perimeter of the site and several landscape islands locatedthroughout the parking lot. Additional landscaping throughout the site would be greatlyencouraged.

5. Will the proposed special land use be hazardous to adjacent property or involve uses,activities, materials or equipment which are detrimental to the health, safety or welfareof persons or property through the excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, odor,fumes or glare?

The church will not generate any hazardous conditions.

6. Will the proposed special land use be adequately served by essential public facilities andservices, or is it demonstrated that the person responsible for the proposed special landuse is able to continually provide adequately for the services and facilities deemedessential to the special land use under consideration ?

The subject property is currently served by all necessary public services and utilities. Nonegative comments have been received from any of the reviewing departments or agencies.Inspections may be necessary to determine if the structure meets current building code andfire code requirements.

7. Will the proposed special land use place demand on public services and facilities inexcess of current capacity?

The proposed special land use is not expected to increase the demand on public services andfacilities in excess of current capacity. In terms of traffic, S. Cedar Street is designated as aprincipal arterial and is therefore, designed to accommodate a high volume of traffic.

8. Is the proposed special land use consistent with the intent and purpose of this ZoningCode and the objectives of any currently adopted Comprehensive Plan?

The proposed church is not consistent with the intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinanceor the Southeast Area Comprehensive Plan. The zoning pattern and future land use patternalong S. Cedar Street is clearly intended to retain and promote commercial land use along this


Page 5

corridor. The subject property is zoned a combination of commercial, wholesale, industrialand parking districts and is master planned for commercial/office or multiple familydevelopment. The intent of the zoning ordinance is to concentrate commercial land usesalong principal arterials/state trunklines. Such streets are designed to accommodate uses thatgenerate a high volume of vehicular trips on a daily basis and receive heavy truck deliveries.Unlike commercial uses, the Zoning Ordinance allows churches, with a special land usepermit, in residential and office districts. Churches are considered compatible uses inresidential neighborhoods and office districts since they are quiet, the majority of the trafficis on weekends and there is no heavy truck traffic associated with their use.

9.

Will the proposed special land use meet the dimensional requirements of the district inwhich the property is located?

There are no physical changes proposed for the exterior of the building or the site at 5750 S.Cedar Street and therefore, the only dimensional requirement that applies to this request isparking. The Zoning Ordinance requires 1 parking space for each 3 seats in the mainsanctuary. Since the applicant would like to have seating for 500 people in the mainsanctuary, 167 parking spaces would be required. The attached site plan shows 470 parkingspaces, including the lot that is located between the 2 driveways.

OTHER

The Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000 states:

"No government shall impose or implement a land use regulation in a manner that treats a religiousassembly or institution on less than equal terms with a nonreligious assembly or institution." It alsoforbids regulations that impose a "substantial burden on the religious exercise" of people or religiousassemblies or institutions, including "the use, building or conversion of real property."

The City Zoning Ordinance makes adequate provisions for churches throughout the city. Churchesare permitted in all zoning districts, including residential, if the conditions set forth in the ordinancefor evaluating special land use permits can be satisfied. Furthermore, the ordinance does not treatreligious institutions less favorably than any other non-commercial use, such as schools or nursinghomes, seeking to locate in a commercial district. In fact, unlike schools and nursing homes, theordinance actually provides for churches in commercial districts, through the special land use permitprocess, where each case can be evaluated on its own merits to determine if the location isappropriate.

SUMMARY

This is a request by Abundant Grace Faith Church to utilize the building at 5750 S. Cedar Street(former Builder's Square/Farmer Jack) for a church. The subject property is zoned "J" Parking, "G-2"Wholesale, "F" Commercial and "H" Light Industrial districts. Churches with associated parking arepermitted in these districts, if a Special Land Use permit is approved by the Lansing City Council.

The proposal can comply with some of the criteria of Section 1282.03(f)(l)-(9) of the Zoning Codefor evaluating Special Land Use permits.

1. The proposed Special Land Use is not harmonious with the character of adjacent propertiesand surrounding uses.

2. The proposed Special Land Use will change the essential character of the surroundingproperties.

3. The proposed Special Land Use may interfere with the general enjoyment of adjacentproperties.

4. The proposed Special Land Use does not represent an improvement to the lot as it currentlyexists.

5. The proposed Special Land Use will not be hazardous to adjacent properties.6. The proposed Special Land Use can be adequately served by public services and utilities.7. The proposed Special Land Use will not place any demand on public services and facilities

in excess of current capacities.8. The proposed Special Land Use is not consistent with the specific designations of the Zoning

Code and the Southeast Area Comprehensive Plans.9. The proposed Special Land Use will comply with the dimensional requirements of the Zoning

Ordinance.

RE: SLU-2-2010, 4615 Tranter StreetSpecial Land Use Permit - Wireless Communications Tower

Dear Mayor Bernero:

The Lansing Planning Board, at its regular meeting held on April 6, 2010, voted (4-0) to recommendapproval of the request by Haley Law Firm on behalf of MetroPCS to construct a new 145-foot high,monopole, telecommunications tower in the rear yard at 4615 Tranter Street (CATA). The subjectproperty is zoned "H" Light Industrial, which district permits telecommunications towers, if a SpecialLand Use permit is approved by the Lansing City Council.

There is an existing 145 foot tall, lattice telecommunications tower located just south of the buildingat 4615 Tranter Street, in plain view of the neighborhood to the west. CATA has purchased propertyto the south and is proposing to expand its bus storage building which will necessitate removal of theexisting tower. The new tower will be located east of the existing building, as far away from theresidential neighborhood as possible. Furthermore, it will be a monopole tower which canaccommodate several co-locations, thereby reducing the need for more towers in the area.

The Planning Board found, based on testimony, evidence and the staff report, that the proposedspecial land use complies all of the criteria established by Section 1282.02(f)(1-9) of the ZoningOrdinance for granting special land use permits. Based upon this findings, the Planning Boardrecommended approval of SLU-2-2010 with the following conditions:

1.

The proposed monopole tower shall provide for a co-location of at least 3 antennas,and

2.

The tower shall not interfere with telemetry communications of local hospitals andemergency services.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

There is an existing 145 foot tall, lattice telecommunications tower located just south of the buildingat 4615 Tranter Street. CATA has purchased property to the south and is proposing to expand thebuilding which will necessitate removal of the existing tower. The new cell tower ordinanceencourages the removal of lattice towers and even allows them to be reconstructed as monopoletowers without having to obtain a special land use permit or variance, as long as the tower is onlymoved 50 feet from its existing location. In this case, the tower will be moved 517 feet to thenortheast of its current location in order to get it further away from the residential neighborhood tothe west and to get it out of the way of any future development plans for the CATA operations. Thenew tower will allow for co-locations and will therefore, serve the needs of various carriers that needto obtain additional coverage.

ANALYSIS,

Section 1282.03(f)(1)-(2) sets forth the criteria which must be used to evaluate a Special Land Usepermit request. The criteria and evaluation are as follows.

1.

Is the proposed special land use designed, constructed, operated and maintained in amanner harmonious with the character of adjacent property and the surrounding area?

The telecommunications tower will be in harmony with the surrounding area. The proposedtower is simply replacing an existing tower with one of the exact same height but far lessobtrusive to the surrounding neighborhood. The existing tower is located in plain view of thestreet and the residential neighborhood to the west. The new tower will be located east ofthe building where it will be least visible to the residential neighborhood. The base of thetower and the equipment compound area will be screened on all four sides by a wood privacyfence. Furthermore, the reconstruction of a single antenna lattice tower to a multiple antennamonopole tower will mean less towers overall in the area

The facility will be unlit and unmanned, except for occasional inspection and maintenanceactivities. In addition, the monopole design of the tower ensures that it will keep a relativelylow profile. The design, construction, and operation should, therefore, be in harmony withthe character of the surrounding area.


Page 4

2. Will the proposed special land use change the essential character of the surroundingarea?

The proposed use will not impact the essential character the surrounding area. As previouslymentioned, the proposed tower is simply replacing an existing tower with one that will be ableto accommodate antenna co-locations. Since it will be a monopole design, it will have arelatively innocuous impact on views, particularly since it will be located behind the buildingand the base of the tower will be enclosed by a wooden privacy fence.

3. Will the proposed special land use interfere with the enjoyment of adjacent property?

The proposed special land use should not interfere with the enjoyment of adjacent property.In fact, it will actually be an improvement to the neighborhood as described above.

4. Will the proposed special land use represent an improvement to the use or characterof property under consideration and the surrounding area in general, and will the usebe in keeping with the natural environment of the lot?

The proposed special land use does represent an improvement to the property and to thesurrounding area in general. The existing tower is located where it is clearly visible to theresidential neighborhood. Furthermore, it is a lattice tower which cannot accommodateantenna co-locations and is visually obtrusive. The new tower will be located behind thebuilding, as far away from the residential neighborhood as possible and it will be a monopoletower which can accommodate several co-locations and will have less of a visual impact onthe surrounding area. The tower will also allow CATA to expand its bus storage facility,thereby making its operations more efficient.

5. Will the proposed special land use be hazardous to adjacent property or involve uses,activities, materials or equipment which are detrimental to the health, safety or welfareof persons or property through the excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, odor,fumes or glare?

No impacts such as dust, fumes, noise, vibration, smoke, or light glare are anticipated as aresult of this proposal. With the exception of emergency lighting, there will be no lighting onthe tower or in the leased area, unless required by FAA. There will be no generators or airconditioning units on site as the facility is served only with electric and telephone.

In addition, the proposal will not generate any hazardous conditions. Cellular towers do notemit harmful rays that can compromise the health, safety or welfare of human beings oranimals. Furthermore, should the tower fall, it is designed to crimp over on itself so it willnot fall on adjoining properties

6.

Will the proposed special land use b e adequately served by ess ential public facilities and


Page 5

services, or is it demonstrated that the person responsible for the proposed special landuse is able to continually provide adequately for the services and facilities deemedessential to the special land use under consideration ?

The subject property is currently served by all necessary public services and utilities neededto accommodate a telecommunications tower. No negative comments have been receivedfrom any of the reviewing departments or agencies.

7. Will the proposed special land use place demand on public services and facilities inexcess of current capacity?

No excessive demand on public services has been noted from any of the reviewingdepartments or agencies.

8. Is the proposed special land use consistent with the intent and purpose of this ZoningCode and the objectives of any currently adopted Comprehensive Plan?

The site is zoned "H" Light Industrial and the Comprehensive Plan designates the entire sitefor light industrial use. The telecommunications tower is not only for cell phone antennas,it is also used for CATA's communications needs. Therefore, it is accessory to CATA's lightindustrial operations which is the primary use of the site.

9. Will the proposed special land use meet the dimensional requirements of the district inwhich the property is located?

The use is consistent with the general setback requirements of the Zoning Code. The site iszoned "H" Light Industrial which has a height limitation of 120 feet. On January14, 2010,the Lansing Board of Zoning Appeals approved a variance request to permit a height of 145feet for the tower.

OTHER

Several years ago, when cell phone towers were first being constructed in the City, the PlanningBoard and BZA, as a matter of policy, developed a list of conditions for all towers in the City. Whatfollows are the conditions and how they relate to this specific request.

1. The tower shall be "monopole" type.

The request is for the construction of a monopole communication tower.

2. The proposed monopole tower provide for a co-location of antennas:

There are no existing telecommunication towers to co-locate on in the area. The proposedtower is designed to handle at least three additional cellular carriers.


Page 6

3. The tower shall not interfere with telemetry communications of local hospitals andemergency services.

This should be a condition of approval, even though there are no hospitals, medical facilitiesor emergency service agencies located near the site.

4. Landscaping be added around the base of the tower to buffer the view of the base fromsurrounding properties.

The applicant is proposing an 8-foot high wooden privacy fence around the base of the tower.Given the location of the proposed tower, this will be sufficient for screening purposes.

5. The tower be appropriately accessible and fenced for security.

The tower will be accessed via the 12-foot wide easement depicted on the attached site plan.The tower and the compound area for the mechanical equipment will be surrounded by an8 foot high wood fence. The fence detail is shown on page C-4 of the site plan documents.Since the fence is over 6 feet in height, a building permit is required prior to its installation.

6. The tower and any mechanical equipment shed be consolidated and placed in locationsas far away from surrounding residential units so as to minimize the visual impact.

The proposed tower will be relocated to an area of the site where it is no longer visible to theresidential neighborhood to the west. In fact, the tower will only be visible to the industrialarea to the east which is separated from the subject property by the railroad. The proposed8 foot high wooden fence around the compound area will minimize any negative impacts onthe adjoining area.

Wireless Communication Tower Ordinance Requirements

The new ordinance governing cell phone towers requires the following setbacks, based upon theadjoining land uses:

North:Required108.75 feet

Proposed900 feet

South: 108.75 feet 410 feetEast: 108.75 feet 19 feetWest: 108.75 feet 430 feet

Although the applicant's proposal does not comply with the setback requirement from the eastproperty line, the tower is proposed to be located in the best possible location on the property. The


Page7

ordinance provides for an exception to these standards when the intent of the ordinance is met. Thisexception can only be granted by the City Council.

The intent of the ordinance is to encourage fewer towers by permitting the types of towers that canaccommodate antenna co-locations. The other goal of the ordinance is to ensure that towers havea minimal impact on adjoining uses. In this case, the tower proposed tower will be able toaccommodate at least 3 co-locations and will be located behind the building, as far away from thesurrounding residential uses as possible. Based upon these factors, staff recommends that Councilgrant the necessary exception to allow the tower in its proposed location.

The proposal complies with all other requirements of the Wireless Communications Tower ordinance.

SUMMARY

This is a request by Haley Law Film on behalf of MetroPCS to construct a new 145-foot high,monopole, telecommunications tower in the rear yard at 4615 Tranter Street. The new tower willreplace the existing tower at this location. The subject property is zoned "H" Light Industrial, whichdistrict permits telecommunications towers, if a Special Land Use permit is approved by the LansingCity Council.

No impacts of any significance were identified with respect to traffic, public facilities, or theenvironment. Furthermore, the proposed tower is consistent with the dimensional requirements ofthe Zoning Code, with the exception of the 120 foot height limit within the "H" Light Industrialdistrict. On January 14, 2010 the applicant was granted a variance to allow a height of 145 feet forthe tower.

The proposal also complies with all aspects of the newly adopted Wireless Communication TowerOrdinance, with the exception of the setback fromthe east property line. Staff is recommending thatCouncil approve the reduced setback based on a finding that the proposed location is consistent withthe intent and purpose of the ordinance as described above.

The proposal complies with all of the criteria of Section 1282.03(f)(1)-(9) of the Zoning Code forevaluating Special Land Use permits.

1. The proposed Special Land Use will be harmonious with the character of adjacent propertiesand surrounding uses.

2. The proposed Special Land Use will not change the essential character of the surroundingproperties.

3. The proposed Special Land Use will not interfere with the general enjoyment of adjacentproperties.

4. The proposed Special Land Use does represent an improvement to the lot as it currentlyexists.

5. The proposed Special Land Use will not be hazardous to adjacent properties.

Honorable Mayor Virg BerneroNinth Floor, City HallLansing, MI 48933-1694

RE: LS-8-2009, 340 E. Edgewood Blvd.

Dear Mayor Bernero:

The Lansing Planning Board, at its meeting held on April 6, 2010, voted (4-0) to recommendapproval of the request by Carlson Consulting Engineers, Inc., on behalf of Sam's Club, to split offa 139' x 333' section of the property at 340 E. Edgewood Blvd. for the purpose of creating a newbuildableparcel of land. The newly created parcel will have access via a permanent easement fromAmerican Road rather than directly abutting a publicstreet. Section 1236.07(e) of the SubdivisionOrdinance requires that all lots abut upon and have permanent access to a public street. A varianceto the subdivision regulations is therefore, being requested.

The Planning Board found, based on testimony, evidence and the staff report, that the requested lotsplit will allow for development of an area of the Sam's Club site that currently contains excessparking. Furthermore, the resulting lots will be comparable in size to several other lots in the vicinityof the subject property and will fit in well with the existing commercial development in this area.

On April 6, 2010, the Planning Board held a public hearing at which the applicant's representativespoke in favor of the request and no other comments were received.

Following your review of this matter, please refer it to the City Council for its consideration. Pleasebe advised that a public hearing by the City Council is not required for a variance to the SubdivisionOrdinance.

The Southeast Area Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property for commercialand professional office land use. Edgewood Blvd. is designated as a collector road andAmerican Road is designated as a local street.


This is a request by Carlson Consulting Engineers on behalf of Sam's Real EstateBusiness Trust, to split off a 139' x 333' section of the property at 340 E. Edgewood Blvd.for the purpose of creating a new buildable parcel of land. The newly created parcel willhave access via a permanent easement from American Road rather than directly abuttinga public street. Section 1236.07(e) of the Subdivision Ordinance requires that all lots abutupon and have permanent access to a public street. A variance to the subdivisionregulations is therefore, being requested.

Required Proposed

Public street frontageDirect access to a public street

No public street frontageAccess via an easement

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION

It is the policy of the Planning Board to have a public hearing for lot split variances.Notification is by first class mail to all property owners within 120' of the subject properties.

Vacant Parcel:

That part of Lot 27, Kahres Farm No. 2, described as:Commencing at a point on the Southerly line of EdgewoodBlvd. (120 feet wide) at the NE Corner of said Lot 27 and theNW Corner of Lot 29 of Kahres Farm No.2; thence along theEasterly line of said Lot 27 and the Westerly line of said Lot29 the following two (2) course: S 27°58'02" E, 217.43 feetand N 62°01'58" E, 36.00 feet to the Point of Beginning;thence continuing along said line the following two (2)courses: N 62°01'58" E, 139.00 feet and S 27°58'02" E,333.43 feet; thence S 62°01'58" W, 139.00 feet; thence N27°58'02" W, 333.43 feet along a line which is parallel and139.00 feet southwesterly of said easterly line of Lot 27 tothe Point of Beginning. Containing 46,346.8 square feet or1.06 acres.

ANALYSIS

The proposed lot split complies with all provisions of the Michigan Land Division Act. Thesplit also complies with all requirements of the City Subdivision Ordinance, with theexception of the newly created lot not directly abutting a public road. While the statestatute allows lots to be accessed either directly onto a street or through a permanenteasement, the city ordinance makes no such provision. In this case, the new parcel wouldbe provided with an easement through the Sam's Club property that would allow accessto American Road. The easement would be permanent and would run with the land, notwith the property owner(s). A legal description of the easement is attached.

LS-8-2009

The property on the south side of Edgewood Blvd. between American Road and AmwoodDrive is a shopping center that consists of several buildings, some of which are onseparate parcels of land. Despite the separate parcels, the entire shopping centerfunctions as one site. The businesses share signage, parking and driveway access. Asevidenced by the attached site plan, there is a large sea of parking between thebusinesses to the south and the businesses that front along Edgewood Blvd. Therefore,while the new parcel will not comply with the access provision of the City SubdivisionOrdinance, it will be consistent with the development plan in this particular block of E.Edgewood Blvd. It will also allow for use of a portion of the large sea of parking in thisarea, most of which is vastly underutilized, even during the holiday season.

With regard to the remaining Sam's Club parcel of land, there will still be more thanadequate parking to support the use of this site. Furthermore, the split will have noimpacts on the required building setbacks, access or traffic circulation for this business.

One of the primary considerations with lot splits is whether the resulting lots will becomparable in size with other lots in the area. The proposed newly created lot in this casewill be similar in size to several lots that front along E. Edgewood Blvd. in the same blockas the subject property. In fact, the lot that will be directly north of the new lot isapproximately 43,800 square feet in area, in comparison to the proposed lot which willhave an area of approximately 46,280 square feet. The ordinance does not specify aminimum lot size for commercial lots.

The other consideration with lot splits is determining if the resulting lots will be buildable,without necessitating and setback or parking variances. The property is zoned "F"Commercial which requires a rear yard setback of 25 feet, zero side yard setbacks and afront yard setback of 20 feet. Parking is allowed to project into the required setbacks.Therefore, there will be more than adequate room to construct a relatively smallcommercial building with associated parking on the proposed newly created lot.

SUMMARY

This is a request by Carlson Consulting Engineers on behalf of Sam's Real EstateBusiness Trust, to split off a 139' x 333' section of the property at 340 E. Edgewood Blvd.for the purpose of creating a new buildable parcel of land. The newly created parcel willhave access via a permanent easement from American Road rather than directly abuttinga public street. Section 1236.07(e) of the Subdivision Ordinance requires that all lots abutupon and have permanent access to a public street. A variance to the subdivisionregulations is therefore, being requested.

The remaining parcel for Sam's Club will continue to be accessed via the driveways onEdgewood Blvd. and American Road. Access to the proposed new parcel will be from a

LS-8-2009


Page 5

permanent easement through the Sam's property to American Road. While easementaccess is sufficient to comply with the State Land Division Act, it does not comply with theCity Subdivision Ordinance. However, the proposal will allow for development of an areaof the site that currently contains excess parking. Furthermore, the resulting lots will becomparable in size to several other lots in the vicinity of the subject property and will fit inwell with the existing commercial development in this segment of Edgewood Blvd. Asevidenced' by the attached site plan, the shopping center on the south side of EdgewoodBlvd. between Amwood and American Road functions as one continuous site, utilizingcommon driveways, access points and signs. The proposed lot configuration will fit in wellwith the layout, circulation pattern and overall operation of the shopping center. Inaddition, the proposed new lot will be large enough to meet the minimum setbackrequirements for a small commercial development and the remaining parcel for the Sam'sClub store will still have adequate parking and access for its operations.

RECOMMENDATION

Staff recommends that LS-8-2009, be supported by the Planning Board to permit theproperty at 340 E. Edgewood Blvd. to be divided into two separate parcels of land, asdepicted and legally described on the attached survey documents, with the condition thatthe permanent access easement, as legally described on page 6 of the survey documents,is lawfully executed before there is a change of ownership on one or both the resultinglots.

Honorable Mayor Virg BerneroNinth Floor City HallLansing, MI 48933-1694

RE:

Act-2-09, Acquisition of 229 S. Cedar.

Dear Mayor Bernero:

The Planning Board, at its meeting on April 6, 2010, voted unanimously (5-0) to recommendapproval of Act-2-09, the acquisition of the property at 229 S. Cedar Street.

The property is just over an acre in size, and is located on the east side of S. Cedar near theBoard of Water and Light's solar array and Dye Water Treatment Plant. It is currently occupiedby Yellow Cab, which would voluntarily sell the property and vacate the building prior to itsdemolition. The property is zoned "H" Light Industrial District, and its master plan designation is"General Commerce", which recommends a mix of uses, either at the site or district level.

The Planning Board found, based on its review of the location, character and extent of Act-2-09in accordance with its Act 33 Review procedures, that:

• The subject site is no longer a good location for an industrial building.• The subject property could benefit the public in the short term.• The subject property has long term potential for redevelopment.• The property is currently on the market, and a better opportunity to purchase it may not

present itself.• A well-landscaped parking lot at this location would enhance the appearance of the area.

The Board recommended approval of Act-2-09, acquisition of the property at 229 S. Cedar, andthe development of a surface parking lot at that location.

Attached is a copy of the staff report pertaining to this case. Following your review of thismatter, please refer it to the City Council for their action.

parking lot, not ramp, that is maintained would be animprovement. Hopefully it will have tasteful landscapingaround it.

BACKGROUND:The subject property is the former Yellow Cab location, north of the current City parkinglot. It was the subject of a transaction involving a swap of properties in the KalamazooGateway proposal a couple of years ago (Z-l 2-07/Act-I 7-07) in which the City wouldswap Parking Lot #49 (N. side of Kalamazoo between Cedar and Larch) for this one.The Gateway project has not materialized, but the property at 229 remains desirable forpublic parking in the short term and possible development in the future. Moreover, theGateway site on Kalamazoo remains a visible location and a prominent entrance todowntown.

The effect of this Act 2-09 is to decouple the acquisition of 229 S. Cedar from thedisposition Parking Lot #49, and consider its acquisition on its own merits.

ANALYSISAct 285 Reviews are the City's procedure under Section 208.08 of the AdministrationCode for evaluating proposals to convey ownership City property (or an interest in Cityproperty), and to determine a property's public purpose, if any, and its necessity for Cityoperations.

LOCATIONAcquisition of the property would be a pro-active move to make this area moreredevelopment-ready. The construction of a surface parking lot at this location makesthe property more beneficial to the public in the short term. The property would provide

more space for permit parkers who need reasonable access to their vehicles, but notprime parking locations. The space would also be available for special events andLugnut games.

In the long term, the property could come into play in a revived Kalamazoo Gatewayproject or another redevelopment opportunity.

CHARACTERThe character of the building is that of an old industrial building with little prospect forreuse. This contrasts with the more upbeat appearance of the Stadium District, theLBWL reservoir and solar array, and the more institutional appearance of the Dye WaterPlant.

The overall character of S. Cedar Street has been in transition. Despite its lack of use,the landscaped seating near 1-496 has improved S. Cedar's appearance somewhat, andcomplements the landscaping efforts of the property owners to the north (e.g., Wendy's,LBWL, and the Riverfront Business Center). A well-landscaped parking lot at theproposed location would complement those beautification efforts, and serve as a visualconnection between these businesses and the Stadium District to the north.

EXTENTThe City also owns the small .11 acre parcel at the north end of the subject parcel. Thisproperty has only 33' of Cedar Street frontage, and acquisition of the subject propertywould allow it to be combined with the smaller parcel and improving its utility. Further,both parcels could potentially be joined with Parking Lot #49 to the south if need be.

OTHERThe property is on the market now, so this could be the best opportunity to reach a dealon the property.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION

The staff recommendation includes the following findings and recommendations:

Finding:Based on a review of the location, character, and extent of the proposal, staff finds that:

• The subject site is no longer a good location for an industrial building.• The subject property could benefit the public in the short term.• The subject property has long term potential for redevelopment.• The property is on the market now - a better opportunity may not present itself.• A well-landscaped parking lot at this location would enhance the appearance of

the area.

Staff Recommendation:Staff recommends approval of Act-2-09, acquisition of the property at 229 S. Cedar, andthe development of a surface parking lot at that location.
