Northside Revivals
Northside Revivals is a home improvement program which offers incentives to homeowners completing major remodeling projects valued at $20,000 or more. Financial incentives include a grant up to $3,000 and a 50% rebate on your building permit fees.
Program Requirements
Properties must be homesteaded, owner-occupied homes at least 50 years old. There are no income or housing value limits for participants of this program.
Eligible improvements include:
- Facade Improvements

This program requires a visit from a consultant to discuss and help plan your remodeling ideas. This service is largely discounted through the Northside Revivals program for a copay of $100.
