Clarkston is making plans to update a decade-old blueprint for its downtown.

The $80,000 Livable Centers Initiative Grant will help revitalize its town center area to include mixed-income housing and other development, walkability and transportation.

Residents and business owners will be invited to give input at public meetings that have not yet been set.
