Form-Based Code

Criticized form-based code implementation and lack of public notice in pilot areas, urging a pause on expansion.

Urged council not to fund new form-based code consultants until existing pilot areas are properly evaluated and required reports are delivered.

A Detroit Shoreway resident urged the committee not to fund expansion of the form-based code until the city analyzes how the pilot has performed, citing a ten-space parking lot approved mid-block in a residential neighborhood and the 8400 Lake Avenue project where neighbors got no notice.
