Western Avenue Storefront Improvement Grant Program

Businesses and property owners in RPV's Western Avenue Commercial Corridor are invited to apply for a storefront improvement grant from the City!

The City is accepting applications for Round 3 of this program. Applications will be accepted through October 31, 2025.

Grants of $5,000-$20,000, requiring a 50% match, are available for eligible projects that enhance or restore the physical condition or appearance of the building (must be visible from the street). Examples include new exterior paint, lighting, landscaping, signs, awnings, entry doors, outdoor seating, and resolving code violations. Storefronts must be located along Western Avenue within the boundaries of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes (NOT in the City of Los Angeles).

Learn more about how to spruce up your storefront with this grant opportunity and how to apply at rpvca.gov/storefront.
