#a2council meeting adjourned at 20:46!
Ralph McKee hates on TC1 zoning, hates on Sports Illustrated “secrecy”, and talks about “wasting time”, which is what his group does constantly. #a2council
Alex, a member of the ICC, tells #a2council he would not have been able to afford living in A2, asks for better development and expansion options for ICC.
Tom Stumbler rambles on about zoning ordinance revisions. Cites his wealthy developer and landlord cred. For 333 E William Stumbler hates on developer doing a by right development and goes into his Lowertown and Southtown developments tiresome litany. #a2council
Arthur Thomas also speaks in favor of “Fair Hiring” resolution. Says A2 is a champion at giving second chances, and his job with A2 Parks has allowed him to Change his life. #a2council
Adam Grant speaks on resolution for “Fair Hiring” as it saves lives of formerly incarcerated people. #a2council
Allen Kuhn says average age of ICC houses is 119 years old and proves difficult to renovate. Wants ICC by right development ability. #a2council
“Housing Providers” = Landlords #a2council
Adam Goodman talks to #a2council about CA6, and exCM Elizabeth Nelson’s spreading of misinformation about the pathway under discussion. Cautiously supports CA6.
Brian Donovan with Inter-cooperative Council asks #a2council to implement more measures to increase housing affordability.
Yay! Advocacy for bus transit instead of widening US23 #a2council

Have you thought about a future where they won’t leave Michigan and will be able to live in a single stair building?” theurbanist.org/2023/02/07/one…
Looks doable in Ann Arbor. Glad these projects didn’t block the sun in Seattle. #a2council
Seattle's University District is walkable and bikeable, and is served by transit. This is a 🧵 of student housing options created in the U District using the city's unique single-stair building code
Unelected volunteers should NOT skew policy decisions of Ann Arbor City Council. Bad advice & counsel doesn’t get things built. #a2council
I don't know how someone can sit on or watch the ZBA regularly and not be totally radicalized into a zoning liberalization zealot. Trying to do very reasonable things becomes wildly expensive, & often impossible, due to arbitrary rules & whims of unelected volunteers.
Still need to figure out the west boundary. North Boundary should be the Huron River. Also, Lowertown should be D1.
Everything north of Hoover-Arch-Oakland-Hill should be zoned D1. #A2Council
Do this for a2 plz #a2council
This is amazing 🔥 Last night Sacramento legalized missing middle housing on every lot, effectively ending single-family exclusionary zoning throughout the city!
#A2Council after minimum lot size reform, ACUs are probably my second-favorite possible zoning reform that would make our neighborhoods even better.
Many neighborhoods would be enriched by little accessory commercial units like this. Beyond a mere amenity to neighbors, imagine how many entrepreneurial dreams could be realized in these modest, affordable commercial spaces.
Let’s GO! #A2Council mlive.com/news/ann-arbor…
Let’s get this party started #a2council
Ann Arbor weighing 7 developer proposals for downtown lot mlive.com/news/ann-arbor…
Downtown development with consistent, constant programming to sustain businesses and the arts community outside of football games and the art fairs doesn’t happen on its own. Transit, housing, and partnerships with philanthropy speaks to leadership. We need to catch up.
And I travelled with scores of parents from A2 whose kids performed at State Honors Choir, Orchestra, and Band at the DeVos Center. Same time as a landscaping trade show. Ann Arbor doesn’t have space or capacity to host this, and it wouldn’t happen in University spaces. @AnnArbor
I appreciate how their rezoning work explicitly speaks to housing affordability, diversity, and supply…ahead of master plan updates. crainsgrandrapids.com/news/real-esta…
@danielnickadams @MLive Fail? You must’ve missed the video. It is unforgettable: youtu.be/N0_w3Fdxua0?si…
@danielnickadams @damnarbor @MLive You do know the answer, right?
Mlive's coverage over the last year has worked against that objective. Every day we spend indulging the fiction of this project as a viable, real-life thing delays course correction and increases the damage. We need to get serious. We need to act.
A goal of my Damn Arbor piece was to push the public discourse away from, "has this failed," and towards, "it has failed; what are we going to do about it." damnarbor.com/2022/11/guest-…
Another Q for Mitchell: Why did you quietly boot Alan Haber–a founder and a leading champion of this project–off your board, as documented in LGC's filings last year? Isn't that relevant to LGC's claim that the city is unreasonably refusing to partner with you?
Maybe also ask her: If LGC believes that the city is dragging its feet on the design RFP, why not move without the city? They have 100k; the RFP requires 110k. If they have a capable fundraising operation, as they claim, they don't need the city. Raise another 10k and go.
Like asking LGC President Rita Mitchell why, of the $100,000 LGC claims it has raised, it has only pledged $70k to the project--the 2nd such instance, I'm aware of, in which LGC has hoarded cash instead of quickly deploying it to advance the project. x.com/danielnickadam…
The RFP–and the project itself–was stuck in a ditch because Library Green was holding back a significant amount of money from the design process. So I wrote the Council of the Commons (CotC) again.
