$13 Million Investment in Frankenmuth
September 30,
2004
The city of Frankenmuth received a $489,000 Community
Development Block Grant made available through the Michigan Economic
Development Corporation. The grant will help facilitate the
redevelopment and expansion of the Zehnder’s Bavarian Haus Motel. The
project is expected to create 50 new jobs and spur nearly $14 million in
private investment.
The city will use the funding
to extend and upgrade the water lines and waste water treatment
facilities for redevelopment of the Bavarian Haus Motel into the
Zehnder’s Splash Village Hotel & Water Park. The new family
entertainment and lodging facility will include 63 hotel suites, an
arcade, restaurant, gift shop and a 30,000 sq. ft. indoor water park.
The city of Frankenmuth will contribute $75,000 to the project.
SFI assisted the Frankenmuth
community and Zehnder’s with the grant application process that
benefited the new project and will help support future development of
commercial properties in Frankenmuth.
