ROYAL OAK, Mich. – In a meeting Monday night (April 28), the Royal Oak City Council passed a plan to enter licensing agreements with businesses to transform parking areas into green spaces. The affected area is on Rochester Road between 13 Mile Road and 14 Mile Road.

Businesses in the area, like Green Lantern Pizza, were worried about the plan at first. They were concerned about limited parking when the shop gets busy.
