Facade Improvement Grant

The Facade Improvement Grant is an incentive program created to encourage property owners and business operators to improve the exterior appearance of their buildings and storefronts.

The grant program aims to:

  • Create highly visible and improved building facades (particularly historically significant buildings) contributing to the overall appeal of our streetscape
  • To improve the vibrancy and activation of our streets, leading to increased foot traffic and visitation
  • To stimulate economic vitality through new tenancies, investment opportunities, increased patronage, and improved business sales
  • To deliver social and environmental benefits to our communities 

 

Successful projects are eligible for a co-contribution from council of up to 50% of the total project cost, with a maximum funding amount of up to $5,000.

The Facade Improvement Grant is open to property owners and tenants within the Mackay local government area.

2026 - 2027 Façade Improvement Grant program is now live!
Property and business owners are encouraged to apply for funding to enhance the appearance and presentation of buildings all around the region.> Applications close Friday, August 28.
