Tim Hortons Eyes 2nd Dearborn Location on Michigan

A new Tim Hortons coffee shop could soon be headed into a second location on Michigan Avenue. The Dearborn Elks, owner of the property at 25000 Michigan Ave., is requesting to have their property rezoned as part of negotiations it is having with the Tim Hortons franchise.

The property, formerly home to the Elks organization, is zoned BB, Community Business at the southern portion, while the northern portion is zoned RA, One Family Residential. The request is to rezone the residentially zoned portion of the property to BB Community Business. The change will accommodate resuse and redevelopment of the property.

The Dearborn Elks have been renting the property out for banquets, as it is too large for their current use.

Mark Kellenberger, on behalf of Tim Hortons, will make the request to have the property rezoned at a Monday evening meeting of the Dearborn Plan Commission.

    excellent news on another aging eyesore hopfully gone! Hortons for sure has done their homework with regard to the financial and economic demographic that currently exists….cant put it up fast enough!

    Just what we need instead of that eyesore, something to tie Inkster, Dearborn Hts. and Dearborn together. I’ll bet this follows O’Reillys City Plan to a t, as he is always thinking about our cities long term future.

    The only thing that could be better is a “Tim Horton’s Cares” where you can take anything you want for free! God bless you Tim Horton, wherever you are.

    Think we could turn the Hyatt Regency into the world’s largest Tim Hortons?
