City of Kiel Revitalization Funding
As we shared earlier this year, Kiel’s newest business support program is the Revitalization Loan program that is designed to help grow and expand businesses and enhance the Riverwalk District. Based on feedback, we are providing you with additional program details to help you determine if this can assist your business.
 
  • Applications are accepted and reviewed on a rolling basis as the fund balance allows. For your business to be considered for funding, please submit your application as soon as possible for review at the next committee and city council meetings. You can check with the City Administrator on timing of those meetings
  • The review committee will continue to meet monthly as applications are received.
  • Businesses that have been in existence for a year or more can submit an abbreviated business plan and application. Please contact Progress Lakeshore at 920-482-0540 or info@progresslakeshore.org for assistance. The full application can be found on the City’s website or by clicking here.
  • This program can be coupled with our existing Façade Loan program and the Riverwalk District’s Sign Grant to maximize the benefit to your business. 
  • The full details of Revitalization Loan program can be found on the City’s website and here.
 
We are excited to support new and expanding businesses in the community! Businesses and property owners interested in learning more are encouraged to contact the City Administrator, David Funkhouser, at 920-894-2909 and David.Funkhouser@kielwi.gov.
