The Dorr Hotel project in Sister Bay could benefit from state money for downtown redevelopment and return some much-needed lodging space to the community. The Sister Bay Village Board, the project's developer Jaco Management and the Door County Economic Development Corporation recently met to discuss some next steps for the Dorr Hotel. The possibility was raised of obtaining WEDC grant money for the hotel. The village board approved that idea. DCEDC Executive Director Jim Schuessler says the bulk of the project would still be paid for through private funds. He says state grant money would help enhance community benefits.
Groundbreaking for the Dorr Hotel project had been scheduled for this year but a firm date has not yet been set.
