Township looks at housing ordinances

The Suttons Bay Township board considered requests from Larry Mawby, founder and president of the nonprofit land trust Peninsula Housing, at their June regular meeting last Wednesday. Mawby said that neither of his two requests would require immediate action from the township, but would make his organization’s task of increasing affordable housing options in the area easier.

The Suttons Bay Township board considered requests from Larry Mawby, founder and president of the nonprofit land trust Peninsula Housing, at their June regular meeting last Wednesday.

Mawby said that neither of his two requests would require immediate action from the township, but would make his organization’s task of increasing affordable housing options in the area easier.

The board reviewed an ordinance that would allow them to collect a payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) on workforce housing projects. The township board said the document is under review by their attorney, Tim Figura, and they will consider passing it at a future meeting.
