The City of Southlake is seeking applications for its Landscape Replacement Reimbursement Grant Program.
Donor Name: City of Southlake
State: Texas
City: Southlake
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline (mm/dd/yyyy): 12/31/2021
Size of the Grant:$5,000
Details:
To this end, the City Council to provide local business owners additional relief has formed the Southlake Landscape Replacement Reimbursement Grant, a grant that will be funded from the remaining funds that were allocated to the Southlake Business Relief Grant.
The purpose of this program is to replenish required landscape material as defined by the City and to reimburse those business property owners who have spent funds to replace those required landscape planting materials. Only landscaping that is required by City ordinance will qualify for reimbursement.
Individual reimbursement grants will be awarded to Southlake commercial business property owners in an amount not to exceed 50% of total funds spent on landscape replacements up to $5,000 per business property, as defined of the adopted Resolution. The commercial business property owner will need to provide proof and show the landscape material that was replaced due to the impacts of the February 2021 winter storm.
If eligible business applications exceed the funds available for distribution, the City will prioritize funding grants based on how the completed applications were received (first come, first serve basis).

Grant funds are available to businesses who meet the following criteria:
- Property must be located in the City of Southlake.
