Window and Awning Grant Application
Three Reasons to Participate in this Program
1.  You will have the resources of the Miami Main Street Program behind you for
design assistance.

2.  Windows that are boarded up are a fire hazard.  Many valuable buildings have
been lost in Oklahoma because firefighters could not enter the upper stories of
board up buildings.  "We were having trouble getting the plywood off of the
windows.  That hindered us for a while," Major Danny Kilmer of the OKC Fire
Department said, "WE had to use powerful water streams to blow the windows
off."  (A $275,000 OKC downtown building was lost.)

3.  Canvas awnings and uncovered windows give life and color to the downtown
and subtlety says, "We care about our town and are open for business."  Studies
have shown that boarded up upper story windows send a subconscious message
that the town is closed.
