Ordinance 248-A-121 rezoning implementation — 32500 Palmer Road
Westland
Description
Introduction of the ordinance that formally changes the zoning from single-family residential to general commercial, following the September 21 rezoning approval for a proposed community center and banquet hall.
Impact summary
The vacant church gets a taxpaying second life, but the broad commercial zoning means the city can't limit future uses on the site.
