During review of the Façade Application rules it was discovered a rule had been overlooked in past façade approvals “Funds from this program may not be used on projects participating in any other City program.” This rule was discussed in depth and no consensus by committee was obtained.
Façade Application – Heather’s

Discussion was held regarding Lucky Dog’s application. After review it was determined to approve the application and submit to council for approval.
