The voice for Ann Arbor’s Real Estate Community in local policy.
Who We Are
In July 2022, a group of Ann Arbor real estate business leaders launched Smart Growth Ann Arbor (SGAA) to create a unified voice for the Real Estate Community in the local policy process. SGAA’s focus is to advocate commonsense policies to improve Ann Arbor’s development process and to take a proactive role on real estate-related issues, including long-range planning, zoning, land use and taxation.
Our Mission
SGAA promotes rational land use and taxation policies, strives to limit costly and unnecessary real estate regulations, and brings the voice of the Real Estate Community into the local policy process. SGAA’s efforts aim to foster initiatives to create housing, good-paying jobs, and new tax base for the Ann Arbor community.
Principal Members
Our Principal Members are select companies, approved by the Board of Directors, with a proven history of real estate development or redevelopment in the Ann Arbor area. These firms own a substantial portfolio of local buildings or land, demonstrating a significant commitment to our community.
