Battle Creek approves land exchange to support expansion of Fire Station 6
Summary
The commission approved Resolution 118 authorizing a land exchange with adjacent owner Zachary Antes to square up city property at 2401 Capitol Avenue SW and allow expansion of Fire Station 6.
The Battle Creek City Commission on May 6 approved a land exchange to facilitate renovation and expansion of Fire Station 6 at 2401 Capitol Avenue SW.
Staff presented Resolution 118, which authorizes the interim city manager to execute a sales agreement for an exchange of property with adjacent parcel owner Zachary Antes. The clerk read the resolution summary into the record and a motion to approve was moved and supported. The commission voted and approved Resolution 118.
Why it matters: the land exchange is intended to provide additional room for the planned expansion and to square up a city-owned parcel to improve site planning for the Fire Station 6 renovation.
Next steps: the interim city manager is authorized to execute the sales agreement in connection with the expansion, per the resolution language read into the record. The May 6 minutes do not contain contract exhibits or a map; those documents are part of the city’s transaction records.
