Storefront Repair Grant Program Launched

The City of Burien has launched a Storefront Repair Grant Program to support small businesses impacted by property damage during the COVID-19 pandemic. This initiative, led by local business advocate Adolfo Bailon, aims to provide essential funding for repairing storefronts and revitalizing commercial spaces. The program is particularly significant as many small businesses have struggled to recover following extensive disruptions caused by the pandemic. By offering financial assistance, the city is demonstrating its commitment to fostering a resilient local economy and ensuring the vibrancy of its business community. Eligible businesses can apply for grants to cover repair costs, which will help restore their storefronts to pre-pandemic conditions.

The program not only addresses immediate repair needs but also encourages long-term economic stability in Burien. Through this initiative, the city aims to enhance the overall aesthetic and functionality of its commercial areas, making them more attractive to customers. As businesses recover, the Storefront Repair Grant Program will play a crucial role in bolstering community confidence and promoting local commerce.
