Facade Grant

The City of St. Charles is pleased to announce the return of the Façade Grant Program in 2024

City Council has allocated $50,000 for the program this year. The allocation will be divided equally between four quarters in January, April, July and October. Applications for each quarter will be open for ten (10) calendar days, and the submittal time is listed below for each quarter respectfully. Façade grants are competitive and not based on the order in which they were submitted. Applications will be reviewed and awarded by the Department of Community Development based on their merit and benefit to the city. This year the program will continue to be eligible citywide for owner occupied residential structures that are at least 40 years old and commercial structures that are at least 65 years old. 

Façade grants will be awarded up to 50% of the total cost of a project not to exceed $5,000 for residential structures and $12,500 for commercial structures. Residential grants must be used for external improvements only. Commercial façade grants can be used for exterior and interior improvements. Submittal may be done in person or by being sent to the following email: Landmarks@stcharlescitymo.gov
