The Michigan Daily-Saturday, June 2, 1979-Page 9 Residents opposed to south side development (Continued from Page 1) When the rezoning resolutions come up before City Council, Perkins said she hoped it would consider trying to find alternatives for the south side that in- cluded moderate-income housing. Perkins also said City Council would have to solve the traffic problem posed by additional growth in the area. "If they're not going to expand either State Street or Eisenhower Boulevard, and they've made a commitment not to, then they're going to have to think in terms of some kind of satellite parking," she said. "THEIR (CITY Council members) choices in relation to some of these developments are very limited," she said, because none of the projects by themselves purport opposition to the general plan for the area. "When the buck finally stops, it is up to City Council to look at what are the potential uses of this part of the city, and see what will be the impact of all this development," Perkins said. Susan Greenberg (D-First Ward) echoed Perkins' feelings about the amount of office space proposed for the south side. "I do not want Ann Arbor becoming a bedroom community for Detroit," she said. "Do you build the office space and then try to attract people to fill it, or do you assess the needs of the community and then build the office space?" she continued. City Council member Clifford Sheldon (R-Third Ward) is also a mem- ber of the Ann Arbor Planning Com- mission which reviews all rezoning requests and makes recommendations to City Council. Sheldon said Council faces three options considering the south side: It could approve rezoning ordinances, it could ask the developers to reduce the amount of offices per acre, or it could deny rezoning requests. Sheldon said city planning depar- tment figures showed that for any type of development, the traffie impact would be nearly the same. AN ADVANTAGE to the office building developments, Sheldon said, is the added commercial tax base they would provide. Traditionally, office buildings pay more taxes than they use in city services.

That company plans one three-story, 200,000 square-foot office building with 1,000 parking spaces, and 180 units of two-story condominiums with 360 parking spaces, on a total of 40 acres. Sheldon said although so much office space is planned for the south side, "I " " * * * don't see that we are another Southfield ona city-wide basis." South Ann Arbor Council member Perkins criticized the city's planning commission for not considering the TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT NO TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT cumulative impact of proposed south NO PASSES PASSES side development. "People sit down His and draw little blocks on pieces of Hangups paper," she said, but they do not think Are of the long range effects of their plans.Ari HOWEVER, John Herrmann, chair-ar man of the city's planning commission, said the planning commission took a'_ close look at the overall impact of the developments proposed for the southH- side.
