The City of Niles may soon see more community development projects.

The City Council has approved a resolution that authorized the submission of a grant application for round 2 of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation’s Revitalization and Placemaking program.

According to Leader Publications, some potential local projects include rehabilitation of the former Niles Daily Star building, rehabilitation of the former Carnegie Library, adding four market rate apartments through rehabilitation of a Main Street historic building, and the rehabilitation of two buildings with alley patio additions.
