Bowie seeks downtown revitalization grant
The City of Bowie is applying for a Downtown Revitalization Program grant that could bring up to $500,000 to a project to preserve brick streets and pedestrian walkways in the most historic area of the community.
Cindy Roller, executive director of Bowie Community Development, with the help of Janis Crawley, executive director for Bowie Economic Development, have been gathering information for the application which will be written by the Nortex Regional Planning Commission.
City Manager Bert Cunningham told the city council last week the two directors did a great job of figuring out what is needed and writing about what we will do if the grant is successful. The application is due June 1.
