ISHPEMING DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
FACADE PROGRAM
The City of Ishpeming Downtown Development Authority (the “DDA”) established this Façade Improvement Grant Program in order to utilize public funds to stimulate commercial investment. The DDA does not intend to mandate specific design criteria, however, the DDA also recognizes the importance of maintaining the historic integrity of the downtown district. The DDA established Design Guidelines in 2008 that provide the basis for prioritizing projects. By upgrading the appearance of Ishpeming through this program, our community will be more attractive to local residents, tourists, and potential investors.
