The Façade Improvement Program is a grant available to developers, business, and commercial building owners that wish to improve their property. The program is a 70/30 grant that may not exceed the amount of $2,000 per address, per year. Façade grant renovation can be used on any exterior portion of the building that is visible to the public. This can include the front, back, and sides of the building, exterior doors, windows, shutters, gates, and any other decorative elements that are integral to the façade. The programs mission is to stimulate revitalization and private sector capital investment by proactively addressing deteriorating property conditions and encouraging improvements which increase economic vitality.
