Façade Improvement Grants & Low Interest Loans

The Façade Improvement Program is made possible through the HUD Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds administered by the City of Idaho Falls. The Downtown Master Plan envisions a revitalized downtown that is a vibrant and exciting environment to shop, dine, work, and play. To improve and maintain the historic character, this business assistance program was created and funded to retain the uniqueness of Historic Downtown by following the Design Guidelines. There are both matching grants and a low interest loan money available for façade improvements, signage, awnings, and canopies. Please contact the Idaho Falls Downtown Development (IFDDC) for more information and an application form. For more information email info@downtownidahofalls.com or call (208) 535-0399.
