June 25, 2015
 
In 2013 and 2014, Montezuma and Grinnell both successfully applied for grants to remodel the storefront facades in their respective downtown areas. What follows is an update for the community on the status of these projects:

On April 1st, demolition and remodeling of the facades and storefronts of Montezuma began. The expected date of completion is October 31st. During this time, all area businesses will remain open.

Grinnell has submitted paperwork concerning the project to the State Historical Preservation Office (SHPO), and are hoping to go to bid later in this year. The city anticipates work will begin on the project in Spring, 2016 and conclude by 2017.
