Downtown Development Authority
The City of Grand Blanc established a Downtown Development Authority in February 2006 in order to better serve existing businesses in the City and also to encourage and promote new business. The DDA has planned several improvement and support projects to accomplish this goal. If you are an existing business owner, or a business owner looking for a new development location, and have questions or require more information about what the DDA can do for you, please contact us. We look forward to working together with you!
MEETINGS
The DDA invites business owners of the Downtown District and all interested parties to attend their meetings on the first Wednesday of each month at 6:30 PM at City Hall.
Agendas and Minutes can be found here - on the DDA Agenda Page
If you are interested in attending, please call City Hall first to confirm the date and time, as scheduling conflicts may sometimes necessitate a change.

Flower Planter Plan
The DDA has been instrumental in the hanging flower basket project that beautifies the downtown district every summer. We work with our local garden club to continue to improve the beautification of the downtown. The DDA is currently working to expand this project with flower planters on ground level to create a beautiful look from the ground to the sky.
The DDA is committed to helping downtown businesses locate and thrive here in the city. The DDA just approved a Facade Improvement Plan that increases the ability to assist small businesses with small loans.
