Façade Improvement Program
The Façade Improvement Program is specifically designed for the preservation and/or restoration of historic building facades. The program utilizes public funds to entice private investment by property and business owners interested in rehabilitating and restoring downtown commercial structures, stressing their historic significance.
The goals of this program are:
• To encourage historic preservation through restoration of downtown structures,
• To abate any continued deterioration of downtown commercial structures,
• To augment the natural assets of downtown by restoring the uniqueness, character and integrity of downtown structures to the period of their construction.
To qualify for assistance an applicant must comply with the Pasco Downtown Development Association’s Façade Improvement Program guidelines. Projects must be approved by the Design Committee prior to work starting.
The 2009 program application deadline was April 29, 2009; please check back for 2010 program applications later this fall.
