Organization: Keep It Simple
City program to assist businesses on SH26
In an effort to assist businesses on SH26 impacted by the
construction, Colleyville has launched the Quarter 1
Promotion Program (Q1P).
The highway project has affected businesses along
Colleyville's main commercial thoroughfare by altering
traffic and business driveways. This program aims to help
those feeling the construction's impact. Eligible businesses
within the SH26 Project corridor can apply to receive a
grant from the city, up to $1,000, toward an advertising
campaign.
In addition to assisting local businesses, this program
serves as a catalyst to boost local sales tax. This program
is only a piece of the City's plan to assist local business.
