The Luverne Counseling building downtown will be improved through the city’s Historic Facade Improvement Program.
The Luverne Economic Development Authority approved funds for the building at 118 W. Main Street.
The project is estimated to cost $76,800 and Luverne Counseling is applying for the maximum grant and loan allowed through the program — a $21,000 grant and a $21,000 loan. The business will invest $29,800 in owner equity.
The loan, at 2-percent interest, will be repaid over a period of seven years.
The scope of work includes removing the shingled roof front facade; repairing brick and joints; tuck pointing existing brickwork; washing, priming, and painting; installing built-up composite trim and dentils; replacing windows and doors; removing and rerouting AC from front facade; installing four awnings; and electrical work for three exterior lights.
