12/17/13 - The Genoa Township Board of Trustees approved an update to the master plan for the newly-opened Latson Road interchange, with educational and research facilities targeted for development to the south and commercial properties to the north. The blueprint, required by the Michigan Planning Act, ensures a logical development pattern for the township while aiding in efficiently funding aspects such as infrastructure and transportation permits. The updates made to the master plan include goals and objectives of redevelopment, demographics based on 2010 census data, implementation strategies and transportation elements. Strader says the changes were made to clarify the intent of the plan and update the description of certain categories. Genoa Township Supervisor Gary McCririe says âit is important to recognize that this is a processâ and that there will be opportunities for public involvement, from a resident survey on the Latson subarea to an open house and focus group meetings.
