The program works with commercial building owners whose properties are located in designated Business Improvement Areas (BIAs), which have Community Improvement Plans in place to encourage the redesign, renovation and restoration of commercial building façades by facilitating business partnerships. The program helps to stimulate private reinvestment, increase property values, boost business and better neighbourhoods. Grants are offered to small businesses in order to improve and enhance their buildings and storefronts through façade restoration, brick cleaning, new signage, window and door replacement or improved lighting.
