The City of Belfast is seeking support and input for a $500,000 Downtown Revitalization grant, which would be used to pay for streetscape and infrastructure improvements (sidewalks, lighting, stormwater, signage, and landscaping) in an area of downtown Belfast (generally bordered by Cross, Federal, Front, and Miller Streets) that was previously designated as Slum and Blight.
Members of the public are encouraged to offer support and input, which will help to strengthen the City’s application to this competitive grant program. We are particularly seeking support and input from downtown business operators and property owners, and downtown residents that may benefit from the proposed project. All comments and questions can be sent to Thomas Kittredge, Economic Development Director, City of Belfast, 131 Church Street, Belfast, ME 04915, via e-mail to economicdevelopment@cityofbelfast.org, or via phone to (207) 338-3370 ext. 8.
