As Keremeos works to recover from the economic impacts of COVID-19, Council has approved additional façade grants and eased eligibility for 2021. Some of the changes for the 2021 program are:
- Increased the total grant fund from $4,000 to $12,000
- Increased 50% reimbursement per applicant maximum from $2,000 to $3,000
- Amended eligibility …businesses who have not received a façade grant in the previous two calendar years are eligible
- Amended eligible expenses to include outdoor eating areas
- Amended eligible expenses to include work started in the current calendar year
- Reduced intake period (April 30) so that projects can proceed earlier in the year
