5

We started the project of 25-29 East side square in 2022 where we took a building that had different
spaces vacant from^2-15 years and they have all been fully occupied upon completion of each phase.
We think the inside looks great,but now it is time to spruce up the outside.We estimate based on a few
quotes we received and our previous experience,the outlined project with take around$6,200 to
refresh much needed areas of the front and back of the building.Due to a tighter budget as well as the
smaller project in overall dollars with us doing much labor ourselves,we are requesting assistance on
35%of the project cost;—$2,200 out of the projected$6,200.Please see attached picture for inspiration
of the back.We are confident this project will continue to increase the attractiveness of our downtown
area!
