RE: Peshawbestown Master Plan Seeks Public Comment   


Land use, goals, and strategies for the Peshawbestown Master Plan is the topic of a public input session on April 30th, 2025, at the GTB Administration Building (2605 N. West Bay Shore Drive, Peshawbestown, MI 49682). The session begins at 4 P.M. and ends at 7 P.M. People interested in the development of the Peshawbestown Master Plan can arrive at any time between those times to learn about the preliminary sub area planning, draft goals, and strategies in an informal setting and offer their ideas and concerns.


The Master Plan is focusing on 3 Sub Areas within Peshawbestown and are located along M-22 and McKeese Road (see attached map). The land uses identified for those Sub Areas were generated from a series of meetings with Grand Traverse Band Departments and Tribal Council. In addition, MDOT was consulted with, regarding proposed traffic calming efforts along M-22 to incorporate into our Sub Area – A Plan, goals, and strategies.
This is the first of two public input meetings planned for in the development of the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians Peshawbestown Master Plan. In attendance, to field questions and concerns will be staff from the Grand Traverse Engineering & Construction, the Grand Traverse Band Land and Roads Department, and EDC Corporate Architect.


Information on the Peshawbestown Master Plan is available on the Internet at https://www.gtbindians.org/pubinfo.asp or by calling 231-941-8505.
