Planning Commission approves conversion of vacant Rite Aid to Action Water Sports, limits sales to watercraft and accessories
Summary
The commission approved Special Approval for Action Water Sports to open a watercraft sales facility at 3273 W Huron St, limiting approval to watercraft and associated items and requiring standard staff review and site-plan finalization.
The Waterford Township Planning Commission approved a special-approval request allowing Action Water Sports to convert a vacant Rite Aid building at 3273 W Huron St into a watercraft sales facility.
Director Jeffrey Polkowski introduced the application and recommended the commission consider limiting sales to watercraft and associated items. Applicant representative Ray Embach presented floor plans showing overhead/bay doors as part of remodeling plans.
Commissioners discussed remodeling details and the proposed overhead doors; Commissioner Gary Wall and others asked staff and the applicant to confirm bay-door plans and site details. On a motion moved by Commissioner Art Frasca and supported by Commissioner Gary Wall, the commission approved the request with conditions, including a limitation that the approval is restricted to the sale of watercraft and watercraft accessory vehicles only and that staff finalize site-plan details prior to final approval.
The approval allows use of the vacant retail building for watercraft sales subject to the stated condition; the transcript records the approving motion language but does not provide a roll-call tally for this action.
