Development Tracker

The City of Portage provides a full range of services to the business community and its residents. Development proposals are submitted and reviewed by the Community Development Department and other city departments/divisions to ensure compliance with all applicable city regulations. Significant development proposals are subject to review and approval by vote at the Planning Commission, City Council, or both, where public commenting opportunities are provided. The City Administration is authorized to review and approve smaller development site plans per the ordinance requirements found in Section 42-481.

Below is an ongoing list of development proposals that will be scheduled for review by the Planning Commission (PC) and/or the City Council (CC). This list provides the address of the project, a brief description of the development, current status, next steps, and a link to the project plans. As site plans undergo revisions during the various stages of review, the latest plans are added in chronological order after the original application. You may contact the Community Development Department with any questions/concerns about any of these projects at (269) 329-4477.
