From http://www.norwalkreflector.com/articles/2007/09/18/front/iq_420792.txt Willard seeks funding for downtown revitalization By AARON KRAUSE - Reflector Staff Writer | Tuesday September 18 2007, 10:41am WILLARD - The process of improving the downtown's appearance could begin as early as spring. Council voted 5 to 1 Monday to authorize city manager Brian Humphress to apply for $400,000 in state grants for a two-year downtown revitalization project. The money would come from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG). The program offers several options, including State Administered CDBG, which awards grants to smaller units of general local government that carry out community development activities. The city must match the grant and Humphress said the city itself must raise a minimum of 10 percent of the $400,000. Humphress said the city will exceed that, raising 75 percent. Willard had submitted a preliminary application and, along with other communities, was invited by state officials to submit a tier 2 application. Humphress said he feels confident the state will approve it. If the application is rejected, city officials would have to determine whether to apply again. But there is an urgency because the town's funds are currently available, Humphress said. -------------------------------------- Willard is a nice sized town (approx. 7,000 people) with a few major businesses (RR Donnelly, East of Chicago Pizza Company, CSX Railyard, Midwest Industries, Pepperidge Farm). Oh yeah, and Charlie Frye is from Willard. I wanted to get some photos of downtown Willard (and other towns) this summer but I just couldn't find/make time :x http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willard%2C_Ohio
