Little Village East TIF Small Business Improvement Fund (SBIF) Informational Session <\/strong><\/h4>\n
November 5th 10:00 am – 11:30 am<\/strong><\/h6>\n

The Little Village Chamber of Commerce is joining forces with Wintrust Bank to hold an informational session about the City of Chicago\u2019s Small Business Improvement Fund (SBIF).\u0003It will be held on November 5, 2026. The SBIF application period is open November 1st to November 30th to businesses located in the Little Village East TIF district.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The SBIF program requires that businesses show they have the financing to complete their projects. This can be satisfied by sharing a bank statement or a letter from a bank with a loan commitment. Our friends at Wintrust will discuss financing options for businesses participating in the SBIF program. After the informational session, the Little Village Chamber and Wintrust Bank will be on hand to take questions and discuss how we can help you move through the SBIF process and complete your project.<\/p>\n

The SBIF grant is funded by local Tax Increment Financing (TIF) revenue and is made available to business and property owners located in SBIF- eligible TIF districts citywide. Grant funds may be used to reimburse up to 90% of pre-approved construction costs, with a maximum reimbursement of $75,000 for multi-tenant properties, $150,000 for commercial properties, and $250,000 for industrial properties. These funds can be used for new windows, roofs, doors, HVAC systems, tuckpointing, bathroom remodeling, and more, and the grant does not have to be repaid.<\/p>\n
