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.
