Downtown Camrose Facade Improvement Program
Camrose's matching grant pays 50% of eligible facade and signage costs, up to $4,000 per business. The 2026 intake closed on May 15, 2026. When a new intake opens, you pay for the work first, then get reimbursed after inspection. Applications are closed right now and we watch for reopening.
“This funding program is for a matching grant, up to $4,000 per business for façade or signage improvements on storefronts.”
