The City completed a $2.5 million renovation in the former Emanuelson School building.  It has been renamed the Babbitt Municipal Center and is complete with fiber optics and geothermal heating/air conditioning.  It houses the City Administrative offices, the Council Chambers and a conference room for meetings, the Public Library, the Police Department, Senior Citizens' Center, a gymnasium, a catering kitchen, and more.

The Comprehensive Plan and a Housing survey for the City of Babbitt have been completed.  These have been done to prepare for the future in anticipation of growth due to additional employment.
