Neighborhood Planning Councils (NPCs) are resident-based
groups that serve an important and specific purpose in our
community. The purpose of Neighborhood Planning Councils
is to provide a forum to inform and discuss with neighborhood
residents and representatives of the City staff and City
Commissioners, issues and concerns of that neighborhood.
Generally, the City informs the NPC of facts and potential
results of pending decisions, opportunities or other changes.
The NPC discusses and decides what, if any, recommendations
it would like to make or strategies they would like to develop.
These meetings are all open to the public who may attend and
offer suggestions about resolving certain matters of interest
in the neighborhood. Any person who lives or owns property
in a Council area or has demonstrable or substantial interest
(i.e. works in) within the defined boundaries of the Council
area may request to be considered for membership on their
NPC Board.
Anyone wanting to join an NPC should give his or her name
to the chairperson of the Council. Attendance as a potential
member is encouraged prior to recommendation by the NPC
for membership. His or her name is submitted to the City
Commission for official appointment.
Each NPC has a regularly scheduled meeting date each month. Meetings are held in the evenings and run one to two hours in length.
Questions about Neighborhood Planning Councils, meeting locations or membership may be directed to the City of Battle Creek 966-3348.
NPC meeting minutes are available online at: http://www.battlecreekmi.gov/City_Government/Boards_and_Commissions/Minutes__
