Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Ann Arbor public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Comprehensive Land Use Plan and tree protections
Residents warned that the proposed Comprehensive Land Use Plan lacks cost estimates for roads, water, and waste needed to support added housing, and worries it could push families out of neighborhoods.
Arbor South Brownfield Plan and Development Agreement
The city's largest-ever brownfield/TIF deal would transform 17 acres of parking at State and Eisenhower into roughly 1,000 homes including 200+ affordable units. Supporters called it the realization of TC1 corridor goals; critics said the up-to-56% public subsidy breaks the city's own 20% brownfield policy.
