# Michigan City Planning Commission October 27, 2026

The Michigan City Plan Commission’s regular meeting on October 27, 2026, approved the primary and secondary plats for More Development Group’s Track 2 residential project near U.S. 12 and Moore Road. The proposal creates 21 villa lots; the applicant said the overall project had been reduced from 40 to 34 units in response to buyer preferences and updated stormwater requirements. Both approvals passed on separate motions, subject to the planning staff’s conditions and the Sanitary District’s October 27 stormwater and drainage report. Conditions include approval of final utility and infrastructure plans, recording the conservation easement and homeowners’ association declaration, and obtaining fire department and other technical approvals. The Sanitary District said the stormwater pollution prevention plan was adequate but requested several technical clarifications and a groundwater check. Staff noted that about $400,000 in state funding had been secured for a Clemens Drive storm sewer project, awarded to H&G Plumbing, which could support an alternate stormwater approach if groundwater is found.

The commission also heard a presentation on the city’s strategic corridors initiative, with concepts for streets, trails, the lakefront, and civic areas, and discussion of possible zoning updates and a future design process. These were planning ideas, not project or funding approvals; the presenter said implementation could involve multiple funding sources and public-private partnerships. No procurement action was identified for the corridor concepts, and the transcript does not show a vote on Resolution 2026-13 concerning the economic revitalization area.
