Redevelopment commission approves façade grant for Bigby Coffee at 801 North Main Street
Summary
The commission approved a façade rebate for Bigby Coffee. Staff said the immediate work covered by the application totals $24,860 and the proposed reimbursement would be about $12,430; the grant passed by voice vote.
The Crown Point redevelopment commission approved a façade grant for 801 North Main Street to support exterior and mechanical improvements for Bigby Coffee. Applicant Daniel Bridal (S9) introduced himself as the business owner and said he requested funding to install a drive-through window and to repave and restripe the parking area. Staff confirmed the application materials were complete and said the project cost for the work covered by this application is $24,860, which would make the reimbursement roughly $12,430.
Commissioner S7 moved to approve the request; the motion was seconded and the commission approved the grant by voice vote with no recorded opposition. Staff told the commission that work currently visible on-site was not included in the packet because it did not meet the grant criteria; the application covers future work tied to the new drive-through window and the asphalt repair.
Applicant Bridal emphasized local ownership and the desire to improve the property's appearance: "I wanna see it look nice as everybody else does." The commission did not record a roll-call vote in the transcript; staff are expected to complete the grant reimbursement process and return any required documentation to the commission or city administration.
