The Louisburg City Council has approved the continuation of “Faces of Louisburg Improvement Program”, or FLIP, for commercial ad residential properties, through this year. Business owners and residents can apply to the City when making improvements to the front of their business or home. The Council doubled the amount of money that can be reimbursed for a residential project, from $500 to $1,000. The program is available to any resident whose property is valued up to $197,750. Residents can receive a reimbursement of up to 50% of their project with the City’s share not to exceed $1,000.
Business owners making eligible improvements to the front of their commercial space, can receive up to $2,500 from the City. Eligible expenses include brick tucking, exterior painting, door and window replacement, signage, landscaping and similar projects.
