The latest proposed development at the Erwin Orchards site in Lyon Township would save the cider mill and most of the orchard.
Developer Lombardo Homes was before the Lyon Township Planning Commission, Monday night, for a conceptual plan review. Proposed was the planned development, Orchard Crossing, to be located at the corners of Pontiac Trail, Silver Lake Road, and Kent Lake Road.
Orchard Crossing would feature 121 single-family homes and 20 duplex buildings for a population density of .89 units per acre, which is below the allowed 1.25 units per acre. A previously rejected development at the site proposed closer to 400 homes. They also pledged a minimum of $150,000 to help with traffic improvements on that often busy stretch of road. There would be an event center, a tasting room, space for agri-tourism businesses, and perhaps most importantly, preservation of the cider mill and orchard.
