Mr. Van Fossen confirmed the owner has emailed multiple documents since last Friday. They have
signed a contract to do $8000 proposal for interior and exterior clean up. They have paid half and
proven they have the remaining funds. When speaking to the owner yesterday they were told they still
need the list of what needs to be repaired with cost estimate, and proof of funds from the owner. There
was a letter of an interested buyer. Knowing they put the $4000 down, the department is excited on the
progress and recommend to table until next meeting

Mr. Van Fossen outlined the Code Officers notes of violation date, compliance date, and out of

Ms. Shang explained she left after Thanksgiving to visit family, got sick and wasn’t able to return
to remove the items. Had purchased the property in Sept/Oct and was cleaning it out. She
returned after the second notice and wasn’t aware she couldn’t leave bags on the porch as you
can in Grand Rapids where she was living at the time. Councilmember Kost noted she bought in
Sept/Oct but the photos were 02/20/26 so they were there for a significant amount of time.

A. SLU-3-2026, 5200 S Cedar Street, Special Land Use Permit for a Place of Worship
Ms. Stachowiak presented the request from the Islamic Society of Greater Lansing for a
special land use permit to establish a place of worship in one of the suites of the shopping
plaza at 5200 S Cedar St. Historically, the re has been concern about places of worship
affecting the tax base and economic vitality when locating in commercial areas. The proposed
place of worship would occupy a suite that was most recently used as an event center, or
‘place of assembly’, surrounded by other commercial suites and detached comme rcial
buildings. Because of the adjacent level of activity , the place of worship is not expected to
impact the surrounding area. Since the place of worship would occupy an existing suite, no
building or property alterations are proposed.
