Building Better Communities

Challenge

Financing public infrastructure and school facility improvements.

Approach

Acuitas devised a strategy with champions in the Michigan legislature to allow improvement projects to be financed through lease purchase agreements. In one example, we worked with a school district and local residents on a successful public education campaign to get a millage passed to update some of their school facilities.

Results

The solution had a dramatic impact helping local government, universities and public-school facilities make operational and infrastructure improvements. The approved school millage such as the one mentioned above, enabled the school district to utilize an attractive Facebook page (https://fb.me/VoteYes4HPTS) and website (https://citizensvoteyesforhpts.com).
