The meetup in a nutshell, by Jim Nelson.
The Dreff family has paid Highway Commercial zone taxes on their Whitmore Lake Road property for thirty years. Last week they found out it had been rezoned AR in 1992. In AR zoning, they can't even put a house on the less than five acres they've got. Planner Paul Lippens is now on the case.
