Officials in Mesquite have approved more investments to aid property owners with building repairs.
The Mesquite City Council has adopted two new bills for the "façade improvement program." Two hair care businesses will receive money for building improvements. Hair Affair, located at 136 E. Main St., and Barbers Ink, located at 111 W. Main St., will receive meaningful enhancements to the exteriors of the buildings.
“Downtown Mesquite development continues to grow as we are seeing more investment by property owners as well as the addition of new businesses and expansion of existing businesses," Mesquite Downtown Manager Beverly Abell said. "Our program became nationally accredited earlier this year."
Alejandro’s at Front Street Station has announced its expansion to this area, and MVP Nutrition & Energy is among new businesses in the area.
"We won two statewide awards for our work," Abell said. "We saw tremendous participation in our Small Business Saturday activities for the holidays and now the growth of this façade program further showcases the economic viability of Downtown Mesquite.”
