City of Tuscaloosa Launches Facelift Storefront Improvement Program
November 4, 2024
The City of Tuscaloosa has launched a new storefront improvement program called Facelift.
Through this program, the City will partner with commercial property owners to share the responsibility of enhancing buildings’ storefronts.
“The goal of Facelift is to assist property owners in implementing storefront improvements that will increase business visibility, stimulate private investment, contribute to an inviting commercial environment, and ultimately complement other community development efforts,” says Economic Development Manager Liz Moore Benda.
Applications are now open for the first round of funding and are due December 20. Eligible buildings are commercially zoned with storefronts visible from the street.
Program funding will be awarded in the form of a one-time reimbursement for no more than $25,000. The applicant must contribute at least 20% of the total cost of the project.
