Staff Report
June 13, 2024
Hearing, Case 2024-11: Request to rezone 1903 Marquette Avenue from RM-1, Low-Density Multiple
Family Residential, to FBC-NC, Form-Based Code, Neighborhood Core, by the County of Muskegon.
SUMMARY
1. The County of Muskegon purchased Baker College in 2022 and now operates several municipal
departments on site, with more relocating there over the next three years. Baker College, Central
Dispatch, and West Michigan Medical Consortium currently lease space on site. Other vacant
building space is being offered for lease. The County is also considering the sale of additional land on
site that it does not need for its operations.
2. The current zoning of RM-1, Low Density Multiple-Family Residential is very restrictive for the
types of classroom/office uses that have historically operated on this parcel. A rezoning to Form
Based Code, Neighborhood Core would allow these types of uses by right and would also ensure that
any building additions would be developed in a walkable, pedestrian friendly pattern. This zoning
designation would also allow for varying types of residential development.
3. Please see the zoning ordinance excerpts for RM-1 and FBC, NC districts.
4. Notice was sent to all properties within 300 feet of the focus area. At the time of this writing, staff
had not received any comments.
1903 Marquette Ave from the Marquette/Quarterline intersection.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the rezoning. The master plan identifies the Marquette/Quarterline intersection
as a potential neighborhood center. New mixed-use options in this area could assist in the redevelopment of
this commercial corridor.
Master Plan Excerpt
DELIBERATION
The following proposed motion is offered for consideration:
I move that the request to rezone 1903 Marquette Avenue from RM-1, Low-Density Multiple Family
Residential, to FBC-NC, Form-Based Code, Neighborhood Core be recommended to the City Commission
for approval.

5. Standards for Approval of Discretionary Uses
Prior to authorization of any Special Land Use, the Planning Commission shall give due regard to the
nature of all adjacent uses and structures. It shall determine the consistency with the adjacent use and
development. In addition, the Planning Commission shall find that the proposed use or activity would
not be offensive, or a nuisance, by reason of increased traffic, noise, vibration, or light. Further, the
Planning Commission shall find that adequate water and sewer infrastructure exists or will be
constructed to service the Special Land Use or activity.

The offices to be filled by the Planning Commission are:
1. Chairperson
2. Vice-Chairperson
3. Representative to the Zoning Board of Appeals (appointed by the mayor)
ELECTION OF OFFICERS
Officers shall be elected February of each year. Officers shall serve for a one (1) year term.
DUTIES
A Chairperson shall preside at all meetings and shall conduct all meetings in accordance
with the rules provided herein. The vice-chairperson shall act in the capacity of the
chairperson in the absence of the chairperson and shall succeed to the office of
chairperson in the event of a vacancy in that office.
REGULAR MEETINGS
The Planning Commission shall schedule at least twelve (12) regular meetings per year. All
regular meetings, special meetings, and/or hearings shall be conducted in compliance with
the Open Meetings Act P.A. 267 of 1976, the Planning Enabling Act P.A. 33 of 2008, and
the Planning Enabling Act P.A. 110 of 2006.
All meetings shall be publicly posted at least 84 hours in advance of the meeting in a place
visible to the public.
The schedule of regular meetings will be posted for the public within ten (10) days of the
first meeting of the calendar/fiscal year.
All meetings shall begin at 4:00 p.m. At any time during the meeting, any member of the
board may make a motion to adjourn.
SPECIAL MEETINGS
A special meeting may be called by the Chairperson or staff after an applicant request a
meeting and pays the associated fees. Two members of the Planning Commission may
1
also call a meeting upon written request to the Planning Department. The business which
the Planning Commission may perform shall be conducted at a public meeting of the
Planning Commission held in compliance with the Open Meetings Act. Public Notice of
the time, date, and place of the special meeting shall be given in a manner as required by
the Opening Meetings Act, and the Planning Department shall send written notice of a
special meeting to commission members not less than 48 hours in advance of the
meeting.
QUORUM OF THE COMMISSION
Five (5) members of the total nine (9) members serving constitutes a quorum for the
transaction of business.
Whenever a quorum is not present, those present shall adjourn the meeting or hearing to
another date. The members of the Commission may discuss matters of interest, but can take
no action until the next regular or special meeting. All public hearings without a quorum
shall be scheduled for the next regular or special meeting and no additional public notice is
required, other than the 18-hour notice dictated by the Open Meetings Act, provided the
date, time, and place is announced at the meeting.
All motions shall be passed with at least a majority of the seated board members.
MOTIONS
Motions may be restated by the secretary before a vote is taken. The identities of the
maker and supporter of the motions shall be recorded.
VOTING
All votes shall be made by "yes" or "no" and recorded in the minutes in a manner which
ascertains how each member voted.
All members are expected to exercise their obligation to vote upon a question unless a
conflict of interest is present.
The order of the roll call vote shall be varied from meeting to meeting and from one vote to
the next in a random manner, but the Chairperson shall vote last.
ABSTENTION FOR A VOTE
A Commission member shall request abstention from a vote if the member might gain
personal and/or financial benefits or if direct involvement exists which prevents objectivity.
The abstaining member shall state so at the time the item is addressed on the agenda and
shall not participate in the discussion as a member of the commission. A Commission
member may request to abstain from voting with explanation.
2
GOVERNING PROCEDURE
The Michigan Statutes, Planning Commission Bylaws and the Robert's Rules of Order
Revised, in that order, shall govern the order of business before the Planning Commission.
Robert's Rules shall not apply when they conflict with federal law, Michigan Statutes or
they deny a member his/her Constitutional rights.
COMMUNICATIONS WITH CITIZENS
Contact with Commissioners by citizens falls into two categories:
The first category would be contacts of general information seeking (i.e.; meeting
dates, composition of commission, procedure to appear before, location of meeting
site, or others that merely describe the system.) These may be shared or noted in the
minutes at the discretion of the individual commissioner.
The second category consists of significant communications, written or verbal, that
address Planning Commission business and shall be shared and noted in the minutes
(i.e., requests concerning possible change in land use, possible zoning changes,
developers inquiries). Ex-parte contact shall be avoided by Commissioners, if
possible. Persons wishing to discuss issues with Commissioners should address
concerns either in writing to the Planning Commission as a whole or at a Planning
Commission meeting.
Complaints should be referred to the appropriate City Official.
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION
Any persons who wishes to speak on an item included on the printed meeting agenda may
do so when they are recognized by the Chair, at which time they will be required to step
forward to a microphone and requested to state their name and address, or provide it to staff
