Board hears updates on apartments, recreation projects and possible J&H store that could require PA425 annexation
Summary
City staff updated the board on multiple local development prospects — apartments behind Leppinks, disc golf and pickleball facilities — and said J&H is interested in a site at 40 E 82nd Street but that the property is in Brooks Township and would require annexation via a PA425 agreement for city water and sewer.
At the May 8 meeting, Schneider briefed the Newaygo Economic Development Organization on several local development opportunities and regulatory steps that would be required for some proposals.
Schneider said he has spoken with the Brooks Township supervisor and representatives from J&H, who are interested in building a store at 40 E 82nd Street. He said, "this property is in Brooks Township," and that J&H would like city water and sewer; to obtain those utilities the property would need to be annexed into the City through a potential PA425 agreement. Schneider explained the PA425 process and timeline in general terms; the minutes do not record specific timeline dates or the outcome of any formal annexation action.
Schneider also updated the board on other local projects, including apartments behind Leppinks, a disc golf course and pickleball courts. The minutes note interest and discussion but record no formal land-use approvals or funding decisions at this meeting.
