“In our work with communities across the state, the Michigan Vacant Property Campaign hears from community stakeholders about their blight and vacancy issues, as well as their current strategies for dealing with them. No matter the types of issues, or progress on eliminating blight, this guidebook will have useful information for them,” said Julie Hales Smith, MVPC coordinator.
This report will also serve as a helpful point of reference for communities across the nation looking to develop a resource on blight elimination planning.
