By revitalizing commercial properties, the program aims to:

  • Retain and attract businesses
  • Improve the corridor’s aesthetics
  • Boost foot traffic and business utilization
  • Strengthen the area’s economic vitality
  • Eligible businesses can receive up to $10,000 in grant funding to assist with exterior improvements. A minimum 50% match is required from participants.
