Remembrance Day Banners
In August 2011 we created 50 Remembrance Day banners that are hung annually throughout the downtown core. The original banners are now quite faded and in 2019 it was time to have them replaced. When the banners were first made, we worked with the local Legion and a professional photographer to have the photographs taken. This time we resued the original photos, had one submission from the public and set up a photo-shoot with the assistance of the Langley Lodge for a total of 35 images.
These banners have become a point of pride for the Downtown Langley Business Association and Langley City, and have been duplicated by other communities serveral times since they were first unveiled in our beautiful City. We are very proud of our veterans and feel this is a lovely tribute to our local heroes.

Beautification and anti graffiti accomplished at the same time!
In partnership with BC Hydro and the City of Langley, seventeen Hydro and traffic boxes were wrapped throughout the downtown. This is just another example of how by working together we can accomplish more than we ever could alone.

Get Fresh Program
The Downtown Langley Business Association launched their new “Get Fresh” Program in May 2012. This program was created to provide the Business Improvement Association businesses an opportunity to take advantage of matching grants that are specifically designed to improve the overall appearance of their businesses.
Four grants are available:
1 AWNING AND SIGNAGE CLEANING PROGRAM
Clean away the grime and make your awning or exterior signage look like new again. The good news is that we’ve hired a reputable awning company to do the dirty work. The great news is that we already know what their cost is to do the cleaning of your specific awning or signage, so just simply call the office and we can tell you instantly what your cost will be.
GRANT VALUE 50% of the total cost
2 EXTERIOR PAINTING PROGRAM
A fresh coat of paint can do wonders to enhance the attractiveness of your establishment. The DLBA has hired a professional painting company to give your exterior storefront a fresh new look. Paint colours will require prior approval from the BIA and once your colour choices have been approved, we will arrange to have the contractor call you for an estimate. If you want maximum impact for a minimal budget, don’t miss out on this great offer.
GRANT VALUE 50% of the total cost (up to $500)
3 AWNING PROGRAM
Replace, re-skin or re-letter your tired or outdated awning. In addition to helping people find your business, it’s one of the first things a person notices once they do. It also gives them a heads up about what they’ll experience once they’re inside. Nothing says, "welcome – we’re open for business" like a well-maintained awning.
GRANT VALUE 50% of the total cost (up to $500)
4 FAÇADE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The face of your storefront can be completely transformed with a few architectural enhancements. You can update the appeal of your building with minor improvements such as lighting, windows and doors, or go for the full facelift.
GRANT VALUE 50% of the total cost (up to $500)
Businesses can select one or all of the grant opportunities at full value, and letters of intent for façade improvement and exterior painting are accepted on a first-come-first-served basis.
