Regional Forums

In January 2003, three regional forums were held in the towns of Watersmeet, Escanaba and St. Ignace, Michigan. The forums featured speakers from the regional planning and development commissions, MSU Extension, MDOT and the Upper Peninsula Travel and Recreation Association. Well over 100 attendees learned about the importance of visual enhancement in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, the various types of enhancement activities, how to obtain funding for enhancement and how UP communities can take advantage of free planning assistance through this grant project. The project sponsors are accepting applications from communities interested in receiving planning assistance until the 28th of February.

You must indicate your interest in writing to be eligible for this opportunity.
