[OMS_MANAGERS] sources of funds for Facade Improvement grants

[Charlie Mitchell, CEcD]

I think SHPO’s CLG grant program is the best for this purpose. Contact Kuri Gill at SHPO.

The City of Enterprise has a brand new ‘Exterior Rehabilitation Matching Grant” program for commercial buildings in the downtown core.  The City Council approved $7,500 from the Motel Tax revenues for this program and in the first round last month we had over $30,000 requested.  I am currently looking for funds outside of the Motel Tax fund to add to this program so we can support more rehabilitation projects.  

 

Many foundations that might support such projects do not allow re-granting or pass through grants.  

 

I will be submitting a request for non construction funds for planning and assessments to the National Trust for Historic Preservation in October, but in the meantime does anyone have any ideas of other sources of funding I could look at that would give a grant to the city for purposes of supporting the city’s program?
