PLAINFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — Officials with Plainfield Township have moved to stop certain types of development on Plainfield Avenue as leaders look to revitalize the bustling corridor.
During a vote held last week, the Plainfield Township Board of Trustees approved an immediate one-year moratorium on permits, licensing and zoning for any new one-story commercial businesses on Plainfield Avenue between Northland Drive and 4 Mile Road NE. The restrictions do not apply to current single-story businesses expanding or remodeling existing buildings.
Board members said the move is meant to give the Re-imagine Plainfield committee time to create a plan to improve the corridor’s appearance, business climate and visitor experience.
