City of Alameda's Façade Grant Program - Last Chance this Year to Apply!

Façade Grant Program

The City of Alameda's Façade Grant Program provides business and property owners with matching grants to improve their storefronts and enhance the City’s retail districts. Under the Façade Grant Program, business and property owners may be eligible for matching grants up to $15,000 for exterior painting, new awnings and signs, and refurbishment of architectural features. Applications for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025 Façade Grant Program are due Thursday, October 17, 2024. This is the last opportunity to submit an application this year.

This year, the program has a special promotion for awnings and vintage signage restoration. For the FY 2024-25 program only, awning improvements and vintage signage restoration will be reimbursed at the 80/20 level (i.e. the City will grant up to 80% of the cost of the work up to $10,000, up to the maximum grant amount).
