Columbus, Neb., leaders are setting their sights on the city’s oldest neighborhoods with a new tool designed to help property owners make small, meaningful improvements one building at a time. The city has officially launched its Micro Tax Increment Financing program, more commonly known as Micro TIF, after gaining approval from the city council this fall. The initiative represents a notable shift in economic development strategy: Instead of waiting for major developers to pursue multimillion-dollar projects, Columbus is empowering its everyday residents and small businesses to breathe new life into the aging structures of the area.

Micro TIF is a way to help revitalize the historic core of the city while removing barriers that have sidelined smaller projects.

Although L. Frank Baum never specified where Dorothy Gale’s home is located, as the “Oz” series of books progressed, the author did hint that the farm was approximately 45 minutes from Topeka, Kan. That notation was good enough for the community of Wamego, now home to one of the largest Oz collections in the world.

The Oz Museum spans the 125-year history of the classic book series, iconic 1939 MGM film, and, of course, “Wicked.”

The Big Sky Passenger Rail Authority was established in 2020 when 12 counties in Montana passed a joint resolution. Their vision is to work on improving rail services for agriculture, industry or passenger traffic. This vision is meant to give various benefits not only to Montana but to other northwest states in the region. The counties that signed the resolution include Missoula, Sanders, Butte-Silver Bow, Broadwater, Gallatin, Park, Prairie, Dawson, Wibaux, Jefferson, Granite and Powell. The authority is governed by a board of directors with no fewer than five on the board but potentially as many as one director for each county.

One hundred and thirty-seven years ago, under the watchful supervision of architect Edwin L. Walter and mayor Ezra Ripple, the city of Scranton, Pa., built a soaring, three-story Victorian Gothic city hall. It stood – and still stands – 70 feet tall, except for the tower, which rises 160 feet above the city of 76,000 people. And in March, residents received an amazing surprise with the reveal of the fully renovated Scranton City Hall, its tower lit up in green for St. Patrick’s Day.

Scranton City Hall is an example of Victorian Gothic design. To complete the renovation, Scranton leaned on the expertise of local companies.

It is the place where four sisters became “Little Women” – a 12-acre property at 399 Lexington Road in Concord, Mass., which was written into history by Louisa May Alcott, one of the most beloved authors in American literature.

It is considered to be the birthplace of the nation by some. However, the Louisa May Alcott house is an unusual landmark.
