Cass County Land Bank reports $1.9 million in My Hope awards, closes energy-efficiency upgrades
Summary
The Cass County Land Bank Authority reported completion of My Hope program energy-efficiency home upgrades, $1.9 million in awards for Cass County and partner municipalities, and two statewide recognitions at a county meeting.
A representative of the Cass County Land Bank Authority updated the Cass County Board of Commissioners on the My Hope program and related awards.
The Land Bank representative told the board that all energy-efficiency home upgrades under My Hope have been completed and the authority is closing the grant. The Land Bank was recognized statewide with a 2025 regional impact award and a success in monitoring award, the representative said.
“In total, $1,900,000 was awarded to Cass County, the city of Dowajack, and the village of Kesopolis out of just $23,000,000 statewide,” the representative told commissioners, and the board was provided a flyer summarizing the program outcomes. The Land Bank speaker also noted Clerk/Register Monica McMichael and Chair Jones are members of the authority and said the flyer highlights community benefits from the program.
The update was provided as an informational report; commissioners did not take a recorded vote on the matter during the meeting excerpt. The Land Bank representative asked that commissioners review the flyer and noted the program’s statewide recognitions as evidence of local impact.
Why it matters: The My Hope program funds energy-efficiency upgrades in homes; the Land Bank’s closing of the grant and recognition indicate completed work and awards that brought roughly $1.9 million to local projects.
