Belleview Launches Property Improvement Grant to Boost City’s Curb Appeal

The City of Belleview has officially launched its Beautify Belleview Property Improvement Grant Program, offering up to $2,500 to help local commercial property owners enhance the look of their buildings.

Designed to support economic development and community revitalization, the grant provides direct payments to licensed contractors for pre-approved exterior improvements such as painting, signage, landscaping, fencing, lighting, and other upgrades. Unlike reimbursement programs, funds go straight to service providers, reducing financial burdens on business owners.

Eligible applicants must own or lease a commercial property within Belleview’s city limits, and the property owner must live within 50 miles of the city. All projects must be approved before work begins and meet local building codes.

Qualifing improvements include a wide range of exterior upgrades that contribute to the overall look and feel of the community. All proposed work must be pre-approved, and no work may begin prior to receiving official grant confirmation from the city.

City Administrator Mariah Moody emphasized the simplicity of the application process, noting, “We’re removing financial and bureaucratic barriers to encourage real investment in our business corridors.”

The program is administered by Events and Promotions Manager Robert Vass, who encouraged commercial property owners to apply. “This is more than a grant—it’s an opportunity to be part of Belleview’s transformation.”
