The Eastpointe Planning Commission took several formal actions at its Jan. 2 meeting. Below is a concise list of motions and outcomes recorded during the meeting.
• Rezoning recommendation (17020 East 10 Mile): Motion to recommend rezoning from MU‑1 (neighborhood mixed use) to LI (light industrial) for parcel 021429106002 passed by roll call (yes: Commissioners Moody, Sasek, Stokes, Naylor, Zielinski, Chairman DeHaan; no: Commissioner Bridal). The recommendation will be forwarded to city council for final action; any wireless communications facility will require subsequent special‑use and site‑plan review.
• Site‑plan reapproval (21704 and 21718 Kelly Road, CHN Housing): Motion to reapprove the Dec. 2, 2024 site plan for two modular quadplexes, to be finalized administratively subject to presented modifications and prior conditions of approval, passed by roll call (yes: Commissioners Bridal, Moody, Stokes, Naylor, Zielinski, Chairman DeHaan; abstain: Commissioner Sasek).
• Table October 3, 2024 minutes pending review: The commission voted to table the October 3 minutes for further review; two commissioners abstained from that vote because they were not on the commission at the time. (Motion carried; roll call on record.)
• Table Planning Commission bylaws: The commission voted to table proposed bylaws/review until March meeting (motion carried on roll call).
• Election of officers: The commission elected John DeHaan as chairman, Michael Sasek as vice chairman and Sheila (last name reported as Zielinski in roll call) as secretary by roll call vote.
For each of these items the meeting record shows roll‑call tallies and, where applicable, abstentions. Items that passed at the commission level require either administrative follow‑up (site plan) or council action (rezoning) before any change in land use or construction can proceed.
