A developer is pitching a concept plan for an extended-stay hotel on Ellsworth Road, just east of State Road.
The Pittsfield Township board will consider the plan when it meets Thursday night.
Choice Hotels International Service Corps. is planning an $11.5 million, 55,338-square foot, 113-room, three-story Everhome Suites Hotel on the 3.5-acre site.
Bloomfield Hills-based HT Wood LLC owns the property at 375 W. Ellsworth Road, next door to the Speedway service station.
The planning commission will also consider a conditional use permit for It's a Small World Daycare at 4599 Carpenter Road. The property is currently being used as the Unity of Ann Arbor Church. The proposed use is a childcare facility with the intention to have the church use the space on weekends. The daycare has been in operation since 1993, leasing space from Calvary Bible Church at 8318 Carpenter Road in York Township since 2005. The daycare is expected to serve more than 110 children and staff 20-25 employees.
Although the issue doesn't appear to be on the agenda, it's expected that supporters of Brewed Awakenings Cafe, a local independently owned business at 7025 E. Michigan Ave., are expected to address the commission in opposition to a developer's plans for a Starbucks on site.
Sunny, with a high of 97 and low of 67 degrees. Partly Cloudy in the morning, sunny in the afternoon, clear overnight.
Would urge the city to NOT privatize the Rec Center or sell it.
Ali. There is a reason you don’t understand. You choose not to. Investing in our seniors health and wellbeing is much more important than investing in a recreation center that has continued to lose money and only serves a small portion of our city’s community.
We are seniors and fully familiar with both facilities. Perhaps what is not understood is the number of seniors who use the Recreation Center, in particular the aquatic center as arthritis for many of us means water is one of the few ways we can exercise. Many of course also use other areas of the facility.
EDIT: The Saline American Legion was a sponsor for this event, supplying the food for guests. SASC is grateful for their continued support.
Kudos to The Saline American Legion. They have been a consistent contributor to the SASC. Seniors in our community have earned and deserve the benefits that the senior center offers. Great work!
