Facade Improvement Program
The Oswego Facade Improvement Program is designed to promote the continued use and maintenance of commercial buildings in the downtown area. It is intended to help property owners and tenants to rehabilitate and restore the visible exterior of existing structures, and to construct or enhance rear pedestrian entrances of buildings. Improvements must meet criteria for appropriateness of design. Reimbursement grants are provided to owners or tenants in recognition of the positive impact that individual building improvements can have on the overall appearance, quality and vitality of downtown Oswego.
To be eligible for a Facade Improvement Program reimbursement grant, an existing building must be used in whole or in part for commercial purposes, must be located within the target area, and must be properly zoned for the use(s) occupying the property.
