The LEAP program will assist in the recovery of the local economy after the hardships of the COVID-19 pandemic. Local business can utilize the program to help with the cost of facade improvements or other build-out improvements. Retail and restaurant businesses may be eligible for 50/50 reimbursement of improvements up to $30,000. Other businesses may be eligible for reimbursements up to $20,000.
Along with the reimbursement program, the village board has also committed to covering the cost of a “Silver” membership to the Lake Villa/Lindenhurst/Round Lake Area Chamber of Commerce for Lindenhurst businesses for the period of a year. Silver memberships provide members with access to professional development seminars, inclusion in the annual community guide and countless other promotional and advertising opportunities.
