The Michigan Zoning Enabling Act provides that zoning be based on a Plan designed to promote public health, safety & general welfare. A Master Plan, sometimes called a Comprehensive Plan, is a vehicle by which the community determines the character it wants and makes plans for achieving or maintaining that character. The Master Plan is a blueprint for the community’s future; with its primary purpose is to serve as a basis for zoning and to guide decisions related to development and public capital improvements. The Master Plan was adopted by the Planning Commission April 26, 2018 and the Township Board May 9, 2018. Please visit the Master Plan website at www.ClamLakeMasterPlan.bria2.net
Since the Master Plan is to serve as a basis for zoning; the Planning Commission has begun working on updating the zoning ordinance. For schedule, please click on the "newsletter" link below. Work sessions begin at 5 p.m., prior to the regular Planning Commission meeting at 6 p.m.
