Mid Ulster District Council's new town and village 'spruce up' scheme will allow eligible applicants to apply for grant aid through the scheme which will provide up to 75% funding to a maximum amount of £5,000 per property.
The scheme will incorporate minor internal and external improvements to eligible properties, including external windows, doors, guttering and redecoration and internal walls, ceilings, floors and redecoration.
It is on offer to businesses and commercial properties in the towns of Coalisland, Cookstown, Dungannon, Maghera and Magherafelt, as well as in more than 45 villages across Mid Ulster.

Launching the scheme, Chair of the Council, Councillor Martin Kearney, said: "This is a great opportunity for commercial property owners and tenants in our towns and villages to benefit from substantial support to enhance customer-facing areas both inside and outside their premises.
"By providing the scheme and delivering these visible external and internal improvements we are helping to improve and enhance the economic sustainability of our towns and villages, making them more appealing to customers in today's very competitive market.
"I encourage all eligible businesses to apply and look forward to seeing the impressive results in due course."
The scheme's chartered architect Knox & Clayton will host a series of information events over the next two weeks giving property owners and tenants further advice.
Applications open on Monday 19 August 2019 and close at 4pm on Wednesday 18 September 2019.
