Ann Arbor City Council Meeting Summary
APPROVED: A Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) agreement for 3695 S State will allow the developer (Lockwood) to pay just $1 in taxes for every affordable housing unit created on site. This PILOT is meant to improve Lockwood’s application for Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) in order to build 66 units of affordable housing. (Legistar)
- The location is on the east side of State, between 94 and Ellsworth. Plans anticipate a rezoning of the property from O (Office) to Planned Unit Development (PUD). In 2024, the City Planning Commission discussed a pre-application review of the 4-story, 66 unit project. (Legistar)
- MLive reported on concerns raised by commissioners in 2024.

APPROVED: A construction contract for $3,480,277.60 will add a sidewalk on the east side of South Main (between Scio Church and Stadium). The University of Michigan has agreed to contribute to the project, with cost allocation to be determined later. (Legistar)
- Construction is planned in stages this summer, to be completed by August 28 (work suspended during the Art Fair). Traffic on South Main will temporarily be reduced to one lane in each direction. Fifty-four trees will be removed to make way for the sidewalk – of that number, seven are landmark trees and thirteen are invasive species.
- See this link for complete plans and maps of temporary traffic changes— the diagram and list of trees to be removed is on page 15: https://www.a2gov.org/media/kbup0ecw/rfp_26-10_plans.pdf
