Summary

Trenton City Council voted to recommend approval of a redevelopment liquor license for Pickled LLC, which plans a nearly 20,000-square-foot pickleball and golf club at 3360 West Jefferson. The council will forward a resolution to the Michigan Liquor Control Commission.

Clerk Devitt presented an application from Pickled LLC seeking a redevelopment liquor-license recommendation for 3360 West Jefferson, the former Trenton Lanes site, and council voted to forward a resolution recommending the license to the Michigan Liquor Control Commission.

In a description read into the record, the mayor summarized Pickled LLC’s proposed use: the company envisions “a unique pickleball and golf club within the Trenton downtown development area” occupying nearly 20,000 square feet with six pickleball courts, three golf simulators, a service bar and an on-site retail store for equipment and apparel. The club would offer memberships, classes, open play, tournaments and seating for events.

The council made the recommendation by motion; Mayor Rezeppa said the motion was “moved and supported” and that it was “unanimously so ordered.” No public opposition or conditions were recorded in the meeting minutes.

Why it matters: A redevelopment liquor license recommendation advances the applicant’s permit process with the Michigan Liquor Control Commission; it does not itself grant a license. Any final liquor-license issuance will be decided by the state commission.

Details: The proposed location is identified as 3360 West Jefferson. The applicant is Pickled LLC; the property was described as the former Trenton Lanes. The council’s action was a recommendation to the Michigan Liquor Control Commission; the transcript does not record the council attaching conditions to the recommendation.
