Z-1-2026 / SLU-1-2026 — sheltered care facility

Lansing

Description

Rezone the church from Downtown Edge to Urban Flex and grant a special land use permit so it can keep sheltering about 50 homeless families in its gym; hearings set for February 23.

Impact summary

Lets a church legally continue emergency family shelter during freezing weather; any new standalone building would still require coming back to Council.
