The Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) supports local economies in Los Angeles County by promoting business growth, and encouraging job creation and retention through programs such as neighborhood revitalization, business incubation, financial incentives, and commercial lending. If you are looking to sustain or expand your business, or make façade improvements to improve street visibility, the LACDA is your first stop.
Community Business Revitalization
The LACDA has active business façade improvement programs which provide grants and technical services to assist with the improvement of streetscapes along designated commercial corridors in unincorporated communities. The programs improve the appearance of buildings and entire commercial centers, which creates a sense of place, and makes businesses more inviting places to walk and shop.
The façade programs provide grants that cover all costs associated environmental, design, and construction services.
