Downtown TIF Grant Program

The Town of Oakland has established a Façade and Downtown Improvement Grant Program to provide financial assistance to downtown business and property owners located within the established Downtown District (see map below) who wish to make physical improvements to the exterior of their buildings.

A Façade Improvement Grant may be used for a variety of façade improvement activities, including painting, window or door repairs or replacements, signage, awnings, storefront restorations, and other activities outlined under the “Eligible Activities” section of the application package.

A Special Projects & Building Improvement Grant may be utilized for improvements to a building’s structure as well as critical economic development and redevelopment projects.
