Village Revitalization Grant Program

How does the Program work?

Each participating property owner/tenant in the program is eligible to receive a 50% reimbursement on exterior improvements (visible from the street), up to $500 (minus taxes) per property. Funding is competitive and based on approval.

To be eligible for reimbursement the application must receive pre-approval of the project and provide proof of satisfactory completion of the project. Participants must submit all receipts and invoices at the conclusion of their project. The Village will review the documentation, take photos of the completed work and submit the request for reimbursement to the Revitalization  committee. (Note: sales tax on purchases cannot be matched, only the before tax purchase price.)

What improvements are eligible?
