Purpose
The Sign and Facade Program was established to provide technical and financial assistance to Downtown businesses making external improvements. This program matches private money, up to a third of the project's cost or $10,000 for facades and two-thirds or $3,000 for signs, with Federal funding through the City's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). In doing so, the City seeks to promote local merchants and enhance the physical appearance of the Central Business District.
