Do you own or manage a business in the core commercial area of Fort Nelson? If you are thinking of exterior improvements to your business - Northern Rockies Regional Municipality has some financial help for you with their Business Façade Improvement Program.
“ By facilitating improvements to business façades, business areas can become more appealing to consumers, thereby increasing the marketability of commercial spaces, assisting in business retention and providing a better sense of pride within the community,” says organizers.
Funding for the Northern Rockies Regional Municipality Business Façade Improvement program is provided by Northern Development Initiative Trust.
The Northern Rockies Regional Municipality will provide a 50% reimbursement grant up to a maximum of $5,000 per project to improve the facades of commercial buildings. Each building is eligible for an annual grant to a maximum of $5,000.
Projects must have a minimum total cost of $500. Applications are accepted on a first-come first-serve basis.
To ensure funding is fully utilized, projects must be initiated prior to July 31 otherwise project funding may be reallocated to an applicant on the wait list. All projects must be complete by October 31
