Bob Landon with Landon Winery
- Destination Creation Grant, Facade Grant and Fire Suppression Grant Recipient
- "We opened our winery here and for places like us that produce alcohol, [the Destination Creation Grant] was very beneficial for us. The DDA was very helpful in supporting us - we had to put in a sprinkler system that was a very expensive and there was a grant to help offset some of that and also the Façade Grant for the front of the building. We redid the front of the building and put in new windows and put in an awning and made it look really nice. All of that really does help. When a business is looking at going to a new city, yes, they look at the economics of the location and the demographics of the people that live there and the income, but [it] also helps when the city is also supporting the business financially. It helps make the decision to come here easier."
