COLDWATER, MI (WTVB) – The 2026-2027 Facade Grant program is officially open and actively accepting applications to revitalize the heart of the historic downtown Coldwater business district.
Administered to support local commercial corridors, the initiative provides matching grants of up to $10,000 to property owners and eligible business tenants.
The funding operates as a strict 50/50 match, meaning recipients must provide an equal financial investment for their structural updates. All qualifying applications must target permanent, fixed exterior projects designed to measurably enhance the aesthetic appeal, structural integrity, or overall public safety of historic downtown buildings.
This localized financial incentive serves as a tool for boosting storefront visibility and fostering an economically vibrant community hub.
Property owners interested in upgrading their building exteriors can begin by reviewing the program’s official requirements.
Complete guidelines and digital applications can be downloaded through the dedicated Downtown Coldwater Grants Portal.
