PROPOSED NORTH CENTER STREET CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT OVERLAY ZONING DISTRICT

The City of Northville Planning Commission has been studying the North Center Street corridor over the past few years. The City’s efforts have examined land use, parking, pedestrian connections, architecture, and other characteristics of North Center Street. This work has been summarized in the City’s updated Master Plan, and the Planning Commission is now focusing upon the possible creation of an overlay zoning district.

The boundaries of this overlay zoning district are shown in the map below, and will roughly extend from Randolph to Walnut. All current uses such as retail, office, and restaurants will be allowed. It is proposed, however, that added restrictions on building height as well as increased setbacks should be considered. The draft ordinance also has new regulations for landscaping, sidewalk areas, and general architectural standards. A draft copy of this proposed ordinance is available by clicking here, or through the Building Department at City Hall.

The City of Northville Planning Commission is empowered by City Council and is given the authority to establish procedures, standards and administrative rules whereby applicants are required to submit for review and approval a site development plan, to minimize the possibility that a particular development may have on the adjacent property, and further to ensure proper relationships between the development features as they relate to: traffic safety, service roads, driveways, parking areas, accessory buildings and uses and open spaces.
