Learn About City Departments
We know that, sometimes, our neighbors don't know who to call about a particular city service or issue. We have put together a short document that gives a brief description of each of our departments and divisions, so that you can get a better idea of each staff's responsibilities. Check it out for more information, at the link below, including phone and fax numbers. Send questions or feedback to PublicInput@battlecreekmi.gov.

Dog & Cat Licensing
Is a dog or cat part of your family? If you live in the City of Battle Creek, our local ordinance requires you to purchase a license for each pet. We want to keep pets with their families, and this goes a long way in helping do that! We have a new licensing program -- working with DocuPet -- and it is now even easier to license your pets. You can do it online, by phone, by mail, and in person. Click the link below to visit our licensing web page, and learn more.
