Redevelopment is a long process for a lot of Michigan communities, and a new program from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation is helping several cities and towns get on the right track for it.
The
Redevelopment Ready Communities program will help local towns build a strong foundation for redevelopment initiatives and strategies. It will offer formal evaluations as a step toward RRC certification, and provide a set of best practices for redevelopment.
Boyne City is among eight Michigan municipalities that will receive an RRC evaluation right off the bat, as one of the top-scoring cities that applied to the program. Twenty-eight more will receive best practice training and assistance, including Fife Lake.
