City of The Dalles Downtown Beautification Grants

The Dalles, Oregon – The City of The Dalles Beautification and Tree Committee is pleased to announce the 2025 Downtown Beautification Grant. This grant provides reimbursement of up to $300 to eligible downtown business and property owners for projects that enhance the visual appeal of their storefronts.

The purpose of the program is to encourage improvements that support a welcoming and vibrant downtown. Qualifying projects may include flowers, greenery, planters, and long-lasting infrastructure such as hanging basket systems and other durable beautification elements.

Applications are due by May 1, 2025, and early submissions are encouraged due to limited funding. Grant recipients will be notified by May 15, 2025. Approved projects must be completed during the 2025 growing season, and recipients are required to maintain their improvements throughout the season.

The program area is limited to the downtown commercial zone, as identified on the program map. Business owners and property owners in the area are invited to apply.

For more information, to view the downtown commercial zone map, and to complete the application, visit www.thedalles.org/DTGrantBTC.

The Beautification and Tree Committee’s mission is to add to the cultural heritage and natural beauty of The Dalles and to foster pride in shared spaces.
