Our Mission
Getting Involved
Our Mission
To advocate, educate, and collaborate for the revitalization and enhancement of downtown Waterbury following the Main Street Four-Point Approach.
Our Vision
Downtown Waterbury as an easily accessible business center and neighborhood in which to live, work, shop and play.
New grant opportunities for business owners or future business owners in the Central Business District are now available.
The grants are being administered by The Greater Waterbury Chamber of Commerce Foundation.
Startup companies and small businesses independently owned and operated are eligible for grants of up to $25,000, though there are exceptions for heavy equipment and machinery grants of up to $100,000. This grant funding can be used for uses like new signage, furniture and fixtures, interior upgrades, marketing and advertising, business consulting services, limited payroll, and more.
Central Business District property owners can also apply for grants of up to $75,000 through our façade program to assist with exterior building improvements that address the appearance and condition of commercial, retail, and mixed-use buildings in an effort to preserve the unique character of Waterbury’s historic downtown.
With the cooperation of the building owner, tenants may also apply for up to $3,500 for the purchase and installation of an awning or canopy.
Grant funds will be paid to reimburse expenses paid by the Grantee once proof of payment has been submitted. Purchases will require quotes and reimbursement will be made for the provider with the lowest cost.
