Board asks solicitor to draft clearer ADU rules after time‑sensitive application
Summary
The board authorized a solicitor to draft updated ADU/in‑law suite provisions after Becker Engineering and staff noted multiple ADU requests; Casey Kerschner said a recent application at 110 Norton Drive is time‑sensitive.
On a motion by Chairman Butch Myers, seconded by Vice Chairman Merv Engel, the board authorized Lamb McErlane to prepare a draft ordinance updating the township's in‑law suite/ADU provisions; the motion carried 3-0.
Casey Kerschner told the board there have been multiple ADU requests and that current township ordinances do not provide clear direction for applicants. Kerschner said that the most recent application, at 110 Norton Drive, was submitted after the December 10 meeting and is time‑sensitive, prompting the solicitor‑draft directive.
The authorization instructs the solicitor to draft ordinance language to clarify ADU application procedures and standards; the minutes do not include draft text or a schedule for public hearings or adoption. The board tabled related conversation only as needed and approved the drafting authorization.
