Program details
How it works
The City of Fort Wayne’s Community Development Division announced Curb Appeal as a pilot program for eligible neighborhoods. It is designed to support neighborhood revitalization by incentivizing property owners to repair or enhance their property’s exterior appearance.
What the money covers
The city says eligible projects and expenditures can include tree and shrub removal, maintenance or installation; exterior washing or painting of the primary building; tuck pointing; masonry repair or reconstruction of the primary building and existing masonry walls; and repair, reconstruction, removal or installation of fencing, private walks, or driveways and driveway aprons.
Amounts and matching
The announcement does not state a maximum award, cost share, or reimbursement structure.
How to apply
The city announced that eligible neighborhoods could apply, but the page excerpt does not provide full application steps in the search result.
Timing and deadlines
The program was announced in 2023 and the city later said it returned for a second year in 2024. The announcement page does not itself state current-year availability, so I cannot confirm it is open now from the excerpt alone.
