Frostburg Main Street Structural Stabilization Grant Program

How it works

The Frostburg Main Street Structural Stabilization Grant Program is described as a one-time opportunity. The guidelines say the program supports urgent stabilization work and that grant funds are paid as reimbursements, meaning the awardee pays upfront and then requests payment after the work is done.

What the money covers

Eligible work listed in the guidelines includes:

• Foundation repairs
• Roof stabilization
• Exterior wall reinforcement
• Emergency stabilization measures for immediate safety
• Weatherproofing and urgent safety concerns

The guidelines also note non-eligible expenses such as operating costs, purely aesthetic exterior improvements, and interior finishing work.

Amounts and matching

The guideline excerpt available in the source does not state a maximum award amount or match requirement.

How to apply

The source says the awardee must submit invoices and receipts plus proof of payment to request reimbursement. Allegany County arranges and pays for an inspection to verify completion. Ten percent is held back until the project is nearly finished, and the final 10 percent is paid after final inspection confirms the work is substantially complete.

Timing and deadlines

The source identifies the program as a one-time opportunity, but the excerpt available does not state a fixed application deadline.
