The council approved the Arrowhead Redevelopment Plan, which encompasses a largely commercial/industrial area east of the intersection of McKee Road and Verona Road.
City planner Tom Hovel said it was the first time the city had tackled such a detailed plan for redevelopment.
The plan calls for warehouse and industrial uses to limit traffic on McKee Road, which a consultant said would be severely congested during peak traffic, even after when a new interchange is built at Verona Road and more lanes are added to McKee Road.
