Main Street Tax Credit Incentive Program: A Pillar of Success
A crucial component of Colville Together’s success, and the primary funding source for the Façade & Building Improvement Grant is the Main Street Tax Credit Incentive Program. This program allows local businesses to contribute to Colville Together, then get a 75% tax credit on their B&O taxes the following year. Colville Together has effectively leveraged the Main Street Tax Credit Incentive Program to invest in and amplify the impact of the Facade & Building Improvement Grant program.
