We post grants and other items of interest to small town governments, specifically in western Oklahoma. You can subscribe to updates in the box in the right sidebar.
Most small towns have unused commercial space in their downtown, especially upstairs. The HOPE IV Main Street program makes grants to convert some of that unused space into affordable housing units.
The purpose of the HOPE VI Main Street program is to provide grants to small communities to assist in the rejuvenation of an historic or traditional central business district or “Main Street” area by replacing unused commercial space in buildings with affordable housing units.
The objectives of the program are to:
- Redevelop Main Street areas;
- Preserve historic or traditional architecture or design features in Main Street areas;
- Enhance economic development efforts in Main Street areas; and
- Provide affordable housing in Main Street areas.
Get more information on HOPE VI
from Grants.gov or at
HUD.
Deadline: March 3, 2010.
