\"The township, if you had not heard, it was in the paper, but we were awarded $982,000 to, enhance the Town Hall campus,\" Supervisor Vivian said, thanking departments and staff involved in the application and crediting Treasurer Drolet in his remarks. He described the award as \"another great win for the township\" and said it will contribute to the downtown project.

The announcement came during trustees' board comments and was not an agenda item; no funding source or awarding agency was specified on the record during the meeting. Supervisor Vivian said the township would incorporate the funds into the downtown project plans and noted staff and trustees involved in the recent budget workshop had helped prepare the proposals discussed during the session.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Trustees 05-14-2025","oneSentenceSummary","During board comments Supervisor Vivian reported that Macomb Township was awarded $982,000 for enhancements to the Town Hall campus as part of a downtown project; the board did not take formal action on the award during the meeting.","taxTitle","Macomb, Macomb County, Michigan","taxId",64376,"location","Michigan","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6645824,"Board OKs final plan for Rockwood Site Condominiums; developer to build large detention basin to mitigate floodplain",117,2032000,2149000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18&start=2032&end=2149","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18/thumbnail_2032000.jpg","/articles/6645824/Michigan/Board-OKs-final-plan-for-Rockwood-Site-Condominiums-developer-to-build-large-detention-basin-to-mitigate-floodplain","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6645824-8fc99ce8001c1ab16d08ddb55d7e4d77/orig.mp4?Expires=1776410254&Signature=PaBDlxDSGGnbXINWHhHGbD597laqV146dnN2shAM6gFG-CNIozbK9dOIldXk8obPQMjLImgpw5yxPzzMDsS6fjcZ~B9jSJndTjl8uC41UGwhVlmXOZOciEmfxeAjt~qdzHYV7T~w-kRE-cZFG1FEj5dtlLZAAl1JzGXSMIV8R~dBCSOkSQLH8o5dVsm7IFDio2SJYHA-J05L23nhhtBep1xPqx-86n8P1acVvRQtS~34-FlZrMLj-R6D2-D-zXVecwo32F4bdmwcThuubAwfdED5xdmF6aD~uU82SlVL7fj9sHCqAJC7SwPBrTht~MVZqZHepwSfT6YDqQQsGSpdGQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Macomb Township Board of Trustees unanimously approved the final plan for Rockwood Site Condominiums, a development east of Waldenburg Park on 21 Mile Road, at its May 14 meeting.

Mr. Van Tiflin told the board much of the property is currently in floodplain but the developer plans a large detention basin designed to provide both detention and floodplain storage. Van Tiflin said the engineered pond would store roughly the equivalent volume lost when filling existing floodplain and that, by his calculation, the plan provides about 2,000 cubic feet more floodplain storage than exists today. \"They're creating 5 or 6 feet of storage in the pond,\" he said, describing the mitigation approach.

Van Tiflin acknowledged nearby residents expressed concerns during the Planning Commission hearings that adjacent properties could continue to experience flooding. He said the developer's design would remove flood risk from the new subdivision lots but that the adjacent Rockwood subdivision would continue to have floodplain on its property because existing residents did not agree to mitigation measures benefiting their lots.

The final plan has previously received preliminary plan approval and engineering approvals; because the application predated a recent ordinance change, it required final-plan approval from the Township Board. Clerk Pozzi moved the approval and Treasurer Gillette supported the motion; the board recorded the vote as passing unanimously.","The board unanimously approved the final plan for Rockwood Site Condominiums east of Waldenburg Park after staff said the development will create a detention basin and provide floodplain storage that increases overall storage volume compared with current conditions.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6645828,"Board rezones CVS corner on North Avenue from C-3 to C-2 to avoid nonconforming parcel",362,1628000,1990000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18&start=1628&end=1990","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18/thumbnail_1628000.jpg","/articles/6645828/Michigan/Board-rezones-CVS-corner-on-North-Avenue-from-C-3-to-C-2-to-avoid-nonconforming-parcel","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6645828-41f2670a8aa6e6b8db1421cfae078270/orig.mp4?Expires=1776410254&Signature=ASW~tn2AbkedUobNMrJdo26acrgRzF77CWIuFp1asR-9lZQxz8Ac~ACM6aNfnRqpSH~qx2gTRHDTiIE4OUrSTHX8McUSt4GCU7PmAaCP42dJOUblKIt2XtIKN~3tEOp0PDYPDIhsHz0~Y9I8HOj~R~ZUgmlPLOaMOTneaESbsNT8p454aN6Z8-PMWUAksCB51uSzWUmg701eRkTRZf1c8-TA334qjONZv6nt2iT5iP7q7PrDuJ0ADrbZfNZMqRgF~ugPQXxosPPcYtJyqVphkZUlLNkY-KYqjbX1c2XZEIH9YzvPnuB50URJSIMn5h7PshOXz5zRVzcUcz54ePvcBw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Macomb Township Board of Trustees unanimously approved rezoning 5098 North Avenue from C-3 (general commercial) to C-2 (neighborhood commercial) at its May 14 meeting, a move staff said is intended to prevent a nonconforming parcel and align the corner with surrounding uses.

Mr. Van Tiflin, speaking for the Planning Department, said a prior contract rezoning placed a condition on the property that limited use to a drugstore and provided that the parcel would revert to C-3 if the drugstore stopped operating. That reversion, Van Tiflin said, would leave the roughly three-acre site nonconforming because the C-3 designation requires a minimum parcel size the property does not meet.

\"We do know that Sheetz is interested in this corner,\" Supervisor Vivian said during the discussion, adding that the rezoning itself would not preclude a Sheetz development because either C-2 or C-3 could accommodate it. Van Tiflin and staff said the rezoning is largely a housekeeping move to avoid unintended, more intense C-3 uses on a parcel that is too small to meet C-3 lot-size requirements.

The Planning Commission recommended the rezoning unanimously at its prior meeting, and the Township Board approved the request without recorded dissent. Board members noted the corner has been commercial for decades and described the action as aligning zoning with the master plan and neighboring corners. The motion was moved by Treasurer's Law and supported by Trustee Oliver and recorded as passing unanimously.","The board unanimously approved rezoning the parcel at 5098 North Avenue from C-3 to C-2, reversing a contract condition that would have reverted the site to C-3 if a drugstore ceased operations and created a nonconforming parcel under area requirements.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6645833,"Board approves hire of Lauren Marshall as Plan Review Analyst with relocation agreement",54,1458000,1512000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18&start=1458&end=1512","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18/thumbnail_1458000.jpg","/articles/6645833/Michigan/Board-approves-hire-of-Lauren-Marshall-as-Plan-Review-Analyst-with-relocation-agreement","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6645833-6cb27e1ef65cc7a749f2d770c7256329/orig.mp4?Expires=1776410254&Signature=hBQrM7EvaUBdcxwfS~I3xTrKtCGWz8esIb4Fspe8Dsl8r~Z8lZxgVnZtPhAHmd-w~wTw6ZavMFZvCnDM8mum~gHInLlPi3bpORI~EbdazHXjlr4MP3vJSM8chICNodxYazBiLf9gsbMnE4xMEV~55mmE0sPEDT3vc331wQi2pdKLRbIFPwqvqrfWUS3EzRw6d0d4cQclguw7YXv793b8Ppihzx0svl8e955-IP42pH1FN53A-aHoedzRjoOF~qYBVlAxo96LN14gYgwt9y4RHfXyO69uwq1PYyvbeeEiHwWToD7KaN6j39woCen5NGnq-wa-hS3SYiv1tWuRvd1T~w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Macomb Township Board of Trustees unanimously approved the hire of Lauren Marshall to the Plan Review Analyst position at its May 14 meeting. Staff said the hire follows a competitive recruitment and a pre-employment relocation agreement intended to expedite her start.

Mr. Van Tiflin, speaking for the Planning Department, said the township received 24 applications for the plan review analyst position and held interviews on May 2. He said an interview committee that included Josh Box, Jeff Tabaka and himself recommended Lauren Marshall, who began as a township intern in 2021 and has public- and private-sector experience. \"If it's approved tonight, she would start on June 16,\" Van Tiflin said.

Van Tiflin explained Marshall currently lives out of state and the township proposed a relocation payment as a pre-employment agreement to bring her onboard earlier. He said without the relocation offer the candidate's start date would be in August and the township would continue paying consulting fees to cover plan reviews until the new hire began.

The motion to hire Marshall was moved by Treasurer's Law and supported by Trustee Oliver; the board recorded the motion as passing unanimously. The board did not state the dollar amount of the relocation payment during the discussion; the memo in the agenda packet was cited as containing further details.","The board unanimously approved hiring Lauren Marshall as a Plan Review Analyst; staff cited 24 applicants, an interview panel, and a pre-employment relocation agreement to accelerate her start date to June 16.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6645838,"Macomb Township approves emergency sewer lining near Pump Station 10 for $73,930",53,1362000,1415000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18&start=1362&end=1415","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3537663-2c4390c699ca3782ce29cea198bc4a18/thumbnail_1362000.jpg","/articles/6645838/Michigan/Macomb-Township-approves-emergency-sewer-lining-near-Pump-Station-10-for-73930","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6645838-857c53134ce7ec99f4675265e92df76f/orig.mp4?Expires=1776410254&Signature=ZtFV83UM4L6nh8T8RVXu6URoTV6Q3SF72Mf7k9jV7-JcsAzk5aYGGlwGRnqbQ4XWrs0~rmdx-iuKMbZxFAjI032SehYb8KgUNAffUUAtQxg-Moc3BQNXSpM59LbTHE7-v~x8tgH0UKODRG42DFhbDznQSWAa44HKmBMGQt3qnS72lvTOdk~jqjSzZFXByiD5qCYiRTcbwXnhViX-PAv3Nagm8pFff~XCPqlxqWo8QFy9nv0ZAMaeI35Wx-d~IkqOjH95YaAHADgimZAt9VBGFVw~BuxyH4G7YjlxxDNUVBwc4mtWc-Dspr~6iqdh9tXkLOLcbAvg3gzAUpjtdZ1y0A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Macomb Township Board of Trustees on May 14 unanimously approved an emergent sewer lining contract to Instituform Technologies for $73,930 to repair a damaged segment of sanitary sewer near Pump Station 10.
