According to the Ann Arbor News, city residents have again resisted what they see as encroachment by students into previously residential areas. The News reports that City Council voted down, 10-1, a large-scale student apartment project proposed for a site at Maple and Pauline. The project, proposed by Wood Partners, would have built five buildings housing 160 four-bedroom units and 640 parking spaces to the site. City Council had previously voted 8-1 in favor of the project and the city planning committee had also give its approval.
The move comes only weeks after the News reported that City Council may look to rezone some streets south of campus as single-family only, disallowing new apartment or multi-unit home construction in the area near Burns Park.
At yesterday’s meeting, city residents resisted the project.
The News article states:
At one point during the public hearing, one resident turned to the team of developers who were sitting in the corner of the council chambers and pledged to fight the development even it was approved.
“This means war,'’ Ken Parks told the developers.
Yeah, that sounds like Ann Arbor. While resistance from residents has stopped the project for now, I wonder how successful the project would have been. The cross streets of Maple and Pauline, on the southwest side of town is far from campus. Its about 1.5 miles away from Michigan Stadium and almost 2.5 miles away from the Michigan Union. I doubt most students would be willing to live that far away.

I hope that the City Council rejected this mostly from a city-planning approach. That would be a terrible location for students, and high-density doesn’t really fit too well there. Additionally, it would put hundreds of additional cars on the road, and create more of a demand for parking right on campus.
But, they probably just succombed to angry west-siders who fear students like the plague.
