Petoskey middle and elementary school students shared to City staff their Lego rendition of a conceptual design of a potential fish passage project on the Bear River. In 2020, the City will continue its current efforts to re-engineer the Lake Street Dam through a series of public meetings. For more information on the planning project, please visit https://bit.ly/2ZwT93G. Staff thanked the students for the presentation and congratulated all those involved.

In collaboration with the Petoskey Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation and the CS Mott Foundation, the City has initiated efforts to transition to clean energy sources.
Petoskey community launches "Livable Petoskey." Preservation of natural resources, efforts to build the local economy, and management of climate variability impacts are all necessary to continue our region’s high quality of life. As part of the master plan update process, these issues will be discussed.
City Council recently adopted a resolution approving a vision of 100% renewable energy powering the City's electric needs by 2035. The City of Petoskey has adopted the 2014 Petoskey Master Plan that addresses environmental, economic and social goals pertaining to long-term sustainability and resiliency within the community. The Master Plan also encourages the City to work with the Michigan Public Power Agency (MPPA) and other jurisdictions to develop and utilize alternative, renewable energy resources. City Council adopted the 2018 Action Plan with Goal Five to Develop and Promote Community Sustainability Measures by conserving energy and promoting energy efficiencies and the use of clean and renewable energy. Addressing energy use and climate change with renewable energy goals provides an opportunity for the City to move towards greater community sustainability and resiliency.
