The Battle Creek City Commission voted Jan. 20 to adopt Ordinance 01-2026 (petition PRZ25-00006), rezoning five properties along Six Mile Road south of Beckley Road from B2 Regional Commercial to MFR High-Density Multifamily.
The measure, forwarded with an 8–0 approval by the Battle Creek Planning Commission after a public hearing on Dec. 17, 2025, was presented to the City Commission as consistent with existing character and nearby uses under section 1281.01 of the zoning code. Commissioners moved and supported adoption; the clerk recorded the ordinance as approved.
The ordinance rezones the listed parcels to allow greater residential density consistent with the stated high-density multifamily district. No project-specific site plans or development agreements were presented at the meeting; any future development proposals will be subject to separate review and approval processes under the city’s zoning and permitting rules.
The adoption completes the rezoning step; developers and residents will await any formal project proposals and subsequent public hearings that would follow under standard planning procedures.
