Any owner of a commercial building or tenant of a commercial space - with authorization from the building owner - may apply for the RIG. Eligible properties are those used for typical commercial purposes, such as retail, office, or industrial activities, and must be within Littleton city limits. Tenants must have at least two years remaining on their lease or an option to renew consisting of a written confirmation from the landlord and tenant. Before the city reviews a RIG request, the applicant must meet with the city to ensure plans will meet zoning and code regulations. Properties having more than one owner must have the proposed improvements approved by all property owners.
Applicants may receive RIG funds for one project within a two-year period. It is understood that the construction of some projects may carry over into a subsequent calendar year depending on the scope and timing.
