T or C Curb Appeal

Project Details:

Any business owner or building owner in the MainStreet district may apply for a microgrant to carry out an exterior, street-facing improvement project.

​

The proposed project should make a visible and substantial improvement in the appearance of the exterior of the business/building. Improvements must be visible from the sidewalk/street and may include upgrades such as paint, signage, lighting, landscaping, or any other building or site elements that would help enhance the appearance of downtown Truth or Consequences.

Grants are available from $200 to $1,200.

The applicant must provide a 1:2 cash match for the grant (for example, if your total project budget is $600, you should apply for $400 and must contribute an additional $200). 

A detailed budget must be submitted with the application.

NOTE: Grant funds may be used for materials and basic consumable supplies directly related to the improvement project (e.g., paint, brushes, rollers, planters, plants, hardware). However, funds may not be used to purchase tools or equipment, including power tools, ladders, or other reusable items. Basic disposable supplies such as paintbrushes or gloves are allowed.
