FPRA Resolution 25-01-Commercial Facade Grant Program
Submitted For:
Shyanne Harnage

SUBJECT:

FPRA Resolution 25-01 formally establishing the Commercial Facade Grant Program and corresponding guidelines.

SUMMARY:

As part of its commitment to increasing local business awareness, economic productivity, and the overall visual appeal of the FPRA District, the agency has established the Commercial Sign Grant Program. This program encourages existing business owners to replace old and outdated signs with modern, visually appealing ones.  The initiative aims to enhance the community’s aesthetic appeal for residents and visitors while boosting brand visibility for small businesses, ultimately improving opportunities for new customer acquisition and repeat business.

Since its inception in 2021, this program has been actively supporting such improvements. We now seek to formally establish the program through a resolution to ensure its continued impact and alignment with FPRA goals.
