Board approves special-event permit for Denawith Garden Center hiring event
Summary
Trustees unanimously approved a special-event permit to allow Denawith Garden Center to run an extended hiring event at parcel 08194009; planning staff said the multi-week hiring events have run for several years and exceed the township ordinance’s five-day limit, so board approval was required.
The Macomb Township Board of Trustees unanimously approved a special-event permit Wednesday allowing Denawith Garden Center to hold an extended hiring event at parcel 08194009.
Planning staff told the board Denawith Garden Center has held the multi-week hiring event for three years and that the activity exceeds the township ordinance’s five-day limit for special events, which is why board approval is required. Staff recommended approval, citing no prior problems and proactive coordination by the business.
"For the past 3 years, Denham with Garden Center has had this special event, before the township board. This is essentially a 2 month attempt for them to hire employees for the summer. This obviously exceeds the 5 days that the ordinance allows for special events, so we've been having to bring this to the township board for approval," planning staff said.
Trustees approved the special-event permit by motion; the vote was unanimous.
