Riley County Commissioners on Thursday unanimously voted to move forward with an application for a grant program to boost county income.

The commission in next Monday’s meeting will be asked to permit MakeMyMove to apply on behalf of Riley County for the Home in the Heartland grant bringing households from out-of-state into Riley County.

MakeMyMove is a company which facilitates the relocation of existing households to different areas in the United States looking for new residents. Its goal is to relocate 20 households into Riley county, each of which are required to have a minimum household income of $55,000.

The Riley County planning department is going back to regularly meeting with its committees as Vision 2025 is underway, commissioners said Monday.

Vision 2025 is a comprehensive plan to develop the unincorporated areas of the county while preserving agricultural land and its rural heritage, boost economic opportunities for all citizens and to conserve natural resources.

“I think it’s really good that we’re getting this done by the end of 2025,” said county planning director Amanda Webb. “… We need a new vision, but that also gives us time. We’re not rushing it either.”
