TROY — At its meeting Dec. 1, the Troy City Council approved a conditional rezoning agreement for the Village of Hastings residential development project. The project would rezone a 5.15-acre site along the east side of Livernois Road and the north side of Square Lake Road. Previously, the project by GFA Development consisted of 33 residential units that included multi-unit row homes, single-family homes and single-family duplex homes, as well as attached and detached ranches. There was also the potential for sidewalk access, sports courts, putting greens, common areas, and 1.3 acres of open space. However, this previous proposal was unanimously denied by council in August 2024. In February 2025, the developers gave an updated pitch to the Planning Commission with 25 units including four ranch-style detached single-family homes, two duplex ranches
