The township’s Business Façade Improvement Program, now in its second year, will accept applications until Oct. 30.

Business owners in Esquimalt have three more weeks to apply for a grant to defray the cost of gussying up their buildings.

Holly Courtright, president of the Esquimalt Chamber, said the program is starting to get a foothold and more awareness in the community. She said they have tried to make the application process as simple as possible to make it easy for business owners who are swamped to be able to take advantage of it.

The program, which council approved in December 2023, offers grants to help cover labour and material costs to make significant improvements to the appearance of storefronts and other buildings in ­Esquimalt. The grant offers a 50 per cent reimbursement up to $5,000 for a building with a single face, and $10,000 per building on a corner with two facades.
