I understand that in order for my request for a façade and/or interior improvement grant to be approved, I must agree
to work with the Design Committee and to follow the Gloucester Village Main Street Design Guidelines for Façade
and Interior Grants. I understand that the Façade & Interior Program is a competitive award process and that submittal of this application does not guarantee funding. I also understand that monies are granted on a reimbursement
basis following completion of work and approval by the Design Committee. I also understand that any changes
made to the project after the grant approval, which have not be approved by the Design Review Committee, will not
be eligible for funding and may disqualify the entire project for the grant funding. I also certify that if I am a tenant of
the aforementioned property, that I have obtained authorization from the property owner to complete the project. I
am a current member of the GMSA and understand that if awarded a grant of $5,000 or more, I am committing to a
3 yr. term of membership in the GMSA. I understand this amount is expected to be paid prior to receiving the grant
payment. For membership fee info, please contact the GMSA at (804) 695-0700.
