This area has had a moderate amount of past residential growth and industrial development, which has been annexed by the City. The north area is anticipated to become one of two areas for substantial new residential and additional industrial development in the future. c. Northwest The northwest annexation area includes part of Warren Township and a small portion of German Township. It extends west from the U.S. 31 Bypass being bordered on the north by the State Line, on the west by Redwood Road (extended south) and on the south by U.S. 20. This area is anticipated to be a major residential and industrial growth area in the future. Annexation of this northwest area will enable the City to manage new development around the Toll Road/U.S. 31 Bypass and U.S. 20/U.S. 31 Bypass interchanges along with the U.S. 20 corridor. d. West This annexation area extends west towards Pine Road and is bordered on the north by U.S. 20 and on the south by Crumstown Highway. This area, containing portions of German and Portage Townships, has a medium density mix of residential development with some commercial and industrial developments which will continue to see growth in the future. Portions of this area may also require redevelopment activities in the future. S.R. 2 represents the major arterial entering the City from the west. Edison Road and Crumstown Highway are also important minor arterials. Managing future development around the U.S. 20/U.S. 31 Bypass interchange at S.R. 2 (Western Avenue) is an important objective for this annexation area. e. Southwest Growth to the southwest will be limited and generally confined to the extension of the corporate limits toward the U.S. 20/U.S. 31 Bypass between Mayflower Road and S.R. 23. Additional industrial growth is possible in this portion of Portage Township. Mayflower Road and S.R. 23, along with their respective interchanges at the U.S. 20/U.S. 31 Bypass, are important arterials to the City. 57
