The Borough Business Revitalization Program (BBRP) seeks to assist participating communities in their efforts of providing economically healthy, vibrant, pedestrian- friendly, and aesthetically pleasing downtowns for their residents by promoting their events and providing technical assistance and financial resources on a regional level.

The BBRP is made up of local government officials, business owners, active citizens and paid staff from the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce. It is a joint effort of Lehigh and Northampton Counties, the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce, the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce Foundation and the nine participating boroughs: Alburtis, Bangor, Bath, Catasauqua, Coopersburg, Hellertown, Macungie, North Catasauqua and Wilson.

One of the programs that the BBRP administers and that we are most proud of is our Façade Program. The Façade Program is a matching grant program whereby selected projects are given 50% of the costs of renovating the exterior of their properties (up to $5,000).

The BBRP has launched a blog, Lehigh Valley Main Streets, dedicated to discussing the latest projects and news for Main and Elm Street communities around the Valley. We also have a calendar of events so you can keep up to date of our latest projects.
