Mount Pearl council has approved a grant in the amount of $9,100 for Venture Fireplace.
The Topsail Road business had applied to the City’s façade improvement grant program. Through the program, businesses can receive up to 50 per cent of total project costs up to a maximum of $10,000.
Venture Fireplace is aiming to restore siding, windows, doors, and its front building façade to give the building a more modern look.
Council approved the grant unanimously during the October 15 public meeting.
The matter was originally on the agenda for the October 1 public meeting. Council, however, referred the matter back to staff for further information.
