Council adopted resolution 2025‑R32 to enter a three‑year municipal economic development grant with Today's Classroom to reimburse $6,200 per year (total $18,600) to offset acquisition and renovation costs as the company relocates its global headquarters to Green.

The Green City Council on Aug. 26 approved a three‑year municipal economic development grant for Today's Classroom, a long‑established educational‑furniture company moving its global headquarters to Green.

Planning Committee Chair Mister Davidis said Today's Classroom, a 49‑year‑old company, plans to relocate its global headquarters and showroom to 5771 Mayfair Road, moving from Plain Township. The company currently employs 14 full‑time staff with a payroll of about $620,000 and projects growth to at least 20 full‑time employees and a payroll of roughly $806,000 over five years.

Under resolution 2025‑R32 council approved a reimbursement grant of $6,200 per year for three years (total $18,600) to offset the company’s acquisition and renovation costs. Committee members raised no further questions and the resolution was adopted by roll call.

Council members said the measure was intended to support local job retention and modest growth as Today's Classroom establishes its global headquarters in the city. No conditions beyond the grant agreement terms were recorded in the meeting transcript.
