Graffiti Abatement Reimbursement Grant
Downtown Development has a grant fund to assist with materials related to the removal or covering over of graffiti. This grant is on a "first-come-first-served" basis. We currently have $1000 in the fund and once funds are exhausted we do not expect new grant funds to become available.
The grant will reimburse you up to $100 for the costs of materials purchased to abate graffiti. This includes paint and/or an appropriate paint removal product designed for use on sensitive historic structures. The Downtown Development office can make suggestions on suitable removal products. This grant will not reimburse the cost of labor.
ALL GRANTS MUST BE APPROVED PRIOR TO WORK TAKING PLACE.
A link to the application is below. Download, fill out and return the application to the Downtown Development office at 215 E. McKinney St., Denton, TX 76201.
