In spring 2007, the opportunity to review the Master Plan for
Land Use was initiated when the Master Plan and Zoning Committee
discussed opening the master plan to address some particular areas
of interest or to complete open issues. After some discussion
over the next couple of meetings, the Committee recommended to the
Planning Commission that it formally start the process by reviewing
identified, specific areas. The Committee prepared a
resolution that was approved by the Planning Commission as a whole
on June 13, 2007:
Whereas, the Master Plan and Zoning Committee of the City of Novi
Planning Commission has reviewed the status of the City of Novi
Master Plan for Land Use, 2004 regarding Special Planning Areas
No. 1 and No. 2, the Downtown West Area, and the Southwest
Quadrant of the City; and
Whereas, the Committee found that the Master Plan does not detail
the general uses for the following areas: Special Planning
Areas No. 1 and No. 2, and the Downtown West Area; and
Whereas, the Southwest Quadrant of the City is also being reviewed
by the Committee and Commission for potential Plan amendments.
Now, therefore, the City of Novi Planning Commission hereby
announces the start of the Master Plan amendment review process
and it authorizes its Chairperson to notify the City Council and
all entities that are required to receive notice by the State
Municipal Planning Act.
