@MJ, please do not make multiple comments one after another. If you have further thoughts and you just posted you can edit your comment. I have held off from saying something but at this point it has become obnoxious. Also, I would appreciate i…

As I understand it, the planning commission disagrees with these changes because they are not in the city's master plan, and this area was not planned for the high building heights. They would prefer that a new master plan be created where there are…

Thanks for the clarification, however even if the money is coming from property owners within the watershed/drain area, that's tax money that could be used elsewhere that is now focused on this specific project. I'd rather that we don't aspire to…

"I have very little faith that you guys are looking at this critically enough." Speaking for myself, I am looking at this critically. The Ranney Park plans are at this point are a sales tactic and don't address any of the issues with the large su…

"Full plans will be public in a couple months, he said that none of this is costing a taxpayer dime- the developers are paying for all of it- investing 280 mill in the project." I'm not sure how he can say that the developers are paying for all…

That's great. Thanks for calling Pat. I had heard the same rumors about the skatepark. I do worry that however they route the water may cause issues with the park. They better not try to tunnel underneath it.

They should just leave it as grass or landscape it if it's going to flood. We don't need the oils from that parking lot going in to the river, but I know I'm preaching to the choir I think there should be enough parking in the plinth that's not …

That parking lot on the east side should really be about 1/4 of the size. It's only going to be full on football game days. They could probably remove it altogether honestly. Look at the size of the lot near the lake on the other side of the back dr…

Oh haha my post saying this was missed was *directly* beneath your post. Sorry! Most of the listings for this development say that the prices have been reduced. Probably not a good sign for that other building. This might also be what happens i…

The rendering above is at the intersection of Ardmore Avenue and Hamilton Road so that doesn't show the bank building.

I searched through tons of city council minutes and couldn't find anything about this development. The picture above looks like ground floor retail with apartments above. This is better outlot infill than a McDonald's or a bank but I'd prefer nothin…

Good progress pics from the Newman Lofts twitter account. This week they should get the walls of the top floor in place.

Somehow we missed this, but I saw this when looking at the True North Development website reading up on the Four Corners development. True North is building "NoCa Lofts" (North of Campus) in front of the strip mall on Chandler Road: https://www.n…

https://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/local/2019/02/20/downtown-okemos-development-meridian-township/2905549002/ Since this is moving forward without CADL money, it looks like the CADL properly called the developers bluff on this and d…

Unfortunately I think tunneling beneath the concrete park will cause foundational issues. If they have to route a stream south, I'd like to see them use the easement between the park and Frandor Plus.

There are rumors that the Montgomery Drain work will require tearing up Ranney Skate Park to move the water from the northern part of Ranney Park towards the Red Cedar River. We can't stand to lose one of the best regional and specialty parks for…

Thanks for letting me know. It is working for me when I'm logged in to the site. However if I'm logged out I get the following error: "Not Found - The requested URL /discussions//search was not found on this server." I tested by doing two searche…

I just completed an update to the forum software. Please let me know if you have any issues. Thanks, Jared weinjared - at - gmail

Yeah I do agree that it's an improvement. It also doesn't prevent the other uses that I would like to see.

I don't like it. I agree, it feels like they're building the outdoor seating for someone else's restaurant. We should have bathrooms and drinking fountains. Park benches or tables and chairs are good too though, but the outdoor fireplace is a gimmic…
