As MLC’s Communications and Social Media Manager, Liz Gullett keeps clients informed and up-to-date on the goings on in Lansing and the Capitol.

The Michigan Economic Development Corporation announced six communities will receive funding to build 60 new homes and additional space for businesses. The projects are expected to generate a total capital investment of nearly $18 million in Milan, Sturgis, Calumet, Otter Lake, Ypsilanti, and Ionia. “These projects will support construction jobs, build more affordable housing to lower costs, and drive commercial growth in downtowns across the state, supporting small businesses and regional economies,” said Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
