Ann Arbor City Council is unified in concerns over Liberty Plaza but differ in their thoughts on how to move forward on improving the urban park. Council referred a resolution to start a re-design process to the Parks Advisory Commission.
Council member Stephen Kunselman doesn't believe a re-design effort will be effective until the neighboring business is interested. He thinks what Liberty Plaza really needs is enhanced public safety.
Council member Christopher Taylor however is disappointed the issue has been pushed to PAC. He says everyone knows the sunken park needs to be re-designed and PAC made that clear in recommendations approved by council less than a year ago.
Others on council want Liberty Plaza and the proposed park on Library Lane to be considered together.
