Bloomfield Main Street and
Davis County Board of Supervisors
presented with $15,000 Challenge Grant Award

In a presentation ceremony on Saturday, April 23rd, in Des Moines, Main Street Iowa awarded $15,000 to Bloomfield Main Street and the Davis County Board of Supervisors. 

The money will help fund a $53,000 project to stabilize framing of the bell tower and steeple of the courthouse.  “This project is a vital step in the larger goal of making the building’s envelope tight, key to the preservation and restoration of the property,” said information about the project provided to those attending the ceremony.  Other grants were awarded  to the Main Street Iowa communities of Burlington, Dubuque, Greenfield, Hampton, Mason City, Oskaloosa, Ottumwa, Spencer, State Center, Story City, Waterloo, West Des Moines and Woodbine.

The Challenge Grant program is funded through a series of Congressional appropriations authored by Senator Tom Harkin through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and is only accessible to Main Street communities. The funds are awarded  in an effort to help Iowa towns with good ideas on how they can help themselves improve their quality of life and their local economy.

The Main Street Iowa Challenge Grant Program must be applied for through Bloomfield Main Street.  Anyone interested should discuss their interest with Diana Upton-Hill, Bloomfield Main Street coordinator.
