The Municipality of North Perth launched the Façade Improvement Program back in June as a way to support the local businesses in Listowel, Atwood, and Monkton.
The program offers financial grants to the local businesses who want to renovate and improve their storefront. The first improvement made comes from the Listowel Chiropractic who recently installed a new sign on the storefront.
The new sign was completed by local company, Sign Depot. There are still funds available for businesses operating in the downtown of the three towns, and projects like new signage, updating windows and doors, redesigning storefronts and more are all included in the grants.
Those businesses that are interested in the program should contact CIP Project Planner Lee Barich by phone at 519-444-4222, or by email at lbarich@northperth.ca and visit our program website
The Municipality is committed to creating vibrant and engaging commercial space across North Perth. The success of this program has been made possible with the assistance of the Listowel BIA and the OMAFRA Rural Economic Development fund.
