Downtown Lapeer is receiving a $15,000 boost through Michigan’s Main Street Vibrancy Grant, part of Governor Whitmer’s ‘Make It in Michigan’ initiative. The money will fund a range of projects including historic plaques, a History Walk, and an English-style phone booth that plays local recordings. Plans also include new bike racks, cleaner streets, a fresh community mural. A new software subscription will help boost volunteer recruitment, community engagement, and event planning to keep downtown lively and connected.
