GRANT AIDS RIOT RIDDEN S.C. BUSINESSES 06-17-10 20:20 a.v.

While investigations continue into the Santa Cruz May-Day riots, a city grant program is helping business owners replace damaged storefronts.   The funds stem from the Façade Improvement Program, an economic-development initiative launched 16-years ago to update ageing storefronts. The program provides up to $10,000 per project, will match up to another $5,000 in redevelopment money and can not go towards maintenance work.   The proposed work needs to meet city approval.  Businesses must be in the downtown area, have at least 3 years remaining on their lease and a building cant have received a grant in the past 10-years.
