New condo project with stormwater detention adjacent to Lansdowne area

Posted by Judy Hanway on 3 Mar, 2014
Category: Category 3 - other City projects

Received a post card about a project at 2250 Ann Arbor Saline Road recently since I live close to the building site. Thought it would be of interest to the CAC because:

1. This area has been vacant land (formerly farmland I think).
2. The project includes a "regional detention basin" to help with stormwater problems.
3. This may be tied in with the Village Oaks/Chaucer Court Study of 2010

The link for info is: The project is proposed as a new "market rate", active adult, residential condominium building. The contemplated building would rise 3 stories on top of a single level of  a mostly below grade parking garage. The project would also include a regional storm water detention basin to help with flooding issues in the area. See the announcement in the link below for more information:

Thanks Judy, that’s definitely interesting.

Nick, could we find out about DOMs for this?

Nick Hutchinson on 10 Mar, 2014:

I'm not sure if we have formally received their plans and reviewed them yet (which is when we would calcuate how much offset they would need to do), but I will check.

Nick Hutchinson on 10 Mar, 2014:

Just checked and the plans have not been submitted to our department yet.  So, no calcuations have been done yet on mitigation. I think the notice Judy received is a public meeting being organized by the developer.

And... thanks Nick.

Michelle had asked: will DOM FDDs be required for this project? How many?

[CITY]

Yes, mitigation will be required.  Plans have not been submitted yet, so no calculations can yet be performed.
