The goal of the Building Improvement Grant is to promote aesthetic and structural improvements to the commercial/office buildings located within the City of DeWitt Downtown Development Authority (DDA) District. The DDA understands that even small improvement projects can have a significant impact on how a building looks.
If your application is approved the DDA may reimburse your business up to 75% of the costs of the improvement up to $5000.00.
Some examples of improvements that have been completed in recent years include:
- Upgrading or replacing signage
