The Borough, along with the Redevelopment Authority of Cumberland County and the Downtown Carlisle Association offers a number of programs to potentially assist prospective new business owners in Carlisle. These include facade improvement grants, a signage grant program and a low interest loan program. In addition, most of the downtown central business district is located in a Local Economic Revitalization Tax Act (LERTA) district which provides for exemption from portions of real property taxes for improvements to a deteriorated property or for new construction. Prospective business owners are encouraged to contact the Downtown Carlisle Association at (717) 245-2648, the Cumberland County Housing and Redevelopment Authority at 717-249-0789 or the Borough of Carlisle at 717-249-4422 to find out about available business opportunities in Carlisle.
