Mid Michigan Community Action Completes Energy-Saving Upgrades at Baytown Family Neighborhood8/13/2025 Bay City, MI—Mid Michigan Community Action Agency (Mid Michigan CAA) has completed a major Weatherization project at Baytown Family Neighborhood, a 150-unit affordable housing community in Bay City. The upgrades will help families save money on energy bills, live in safer homes, and enjoy better comfort year-round.
“This project is about more than saving energy—it’s about helping families live better,” said Johnny Mills, Weatherization Director at Mid Michigan CAA. “We’re proud to make a big impact for Baytown residents.” Helping Families and the Community The improvements included:
These upgrades directly benefit 324 residents, including seniors, children, and people with disabilities. Powered by Local Jobs and Materials Mid Michigan CAA partnered with local contractors and sourced most materials from nearby suppliers, ensuring the project not only improved homes but also boosted the local economy. The Weatherization program also offers job training opportunities, helping workers build stable careers in the construction and energy efficiency sectors. Strong Partnerships and Smart Investments The $1.3 million project was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) and other partners contributing for a total investment of $2.6 million. By combining funding sources, Mid Michigan CAA was able to reach more families and deliver long-term savings. Weatherization helps keep energy use reasonable in low-income homes, which means more families can keep up with their utility bills. It also helps preserve affordable housing by improving older homes. Learn More Learn more about Weatherization here, or call or text your nearest Community Action Center:
