Planning commission delays Sheetz PDD, asks for revised truck access, TIS review and EV feasibility
Summary
Commissioners postponed the Sheetz minor PDD for the Ford/Lotts intersection, citing unresolved truck and emergency vehicle circulation issues, a pending professional review of the traffic impact study, and the need for a DTE letter on Level 3 EV charger feasibility.
Canton Township’s planning commission voted to postpone consideration of a proposed Sheetz minor Planned Development District at the southwest corner of Ford Road and Lotts Road, citing unresolved circulation and safety questions and outstanding technical reviews.
Staff recommended postponement after reviewing the applicant’s circulation plans and flagging several potential conflicts for large delivery and emergency vehicles. Patrick (planning staff) told the commission that the submitted geometry forces fuel and delivery trucks to make tight turns that would intrude into oncoming traffic lanes in several scenarios and that a drive‑through restaurant arrangement exacerbates those turning conflicts.
