Ann Arbor Planning Commission Meeting 6/16/26

The Ann Arbor Planning Commission held a meeting on June 16, 2026, where key procurement-related discussions focused on two major development projects. The commission approved a modification to the Green Hills School special exception use to increase enrollment to 750 students, including conditions for traffic management such as a one-way vehicular circulation plan and staggered school start times to mitigate congestion. The commission also reviewed a site plan and rezoning request for 3400 Dexter Road, proposing 30 townhomes with associated infrastructure improvements. Due to unresolved issues related to pedestrian connectivity, sidewalk gaps, mid-block crossings, and solid waste placement, the commission postponed the decision on this project to allow further negotiation and refinement of conditions with city staff and the petitioner. The meeting included detailed discussions on zoning classifications, wetland protections, traffic and pedestrian safety, and sustainability considerations such as solar readiness and electrification. The commission emphasized the importance of balancing development with neighborhood impacts and infrastructure needs, directing staff to work with developers to address outstanding concerns before returning with a revised plan.
