Applications for three City funding programs will be accepted June 3-28.
- The Hopkins Climate Solutions Fund offers incentives for residential and commercial projects to accelerate our transition to cleaner and more efficient energy. Projects awarded in the past have been solar panel installations, electric bike purchases, and weatherization improvements.
- The Façade Improvement Program is open to commercial property and business owners in Downtown Hopkins, between 7th Avenue and Shady Oak Road and 1st Street N and 1st Street S to apply for funding for façade revitalization projects that strengthen Mainstreet’s vitality.
- The Hopkins Small Business Loans are one-time forgivable, no-interest loans available to small businesses with brick-and-mortar facilities in the City, funded by the American Rescue Plan Act. The grants may be used for publicly visible physical improvements to the exterior of buildings and improvements to increase ADA accessibility.
