Staff has received a notice of intent to award letter from Business Oregon stating
that the grant proposal was approved. Contingency funds will be transferred to
the Materials & Services budget category to make a $50,000 grant to the City as
matching funds for the emergency small business assistance grant program,
which will be reimbursed through CARES Act funding.
Mr. Weber worked with SOREDI to get approval of the fund for local small
businesses and explained the application process has not been finalized yet. The
Central Point Chamber will help with the process and marketing to the business
community. There are specific guidelines required by Business Oregon. We do
not currently have a count of businesses who may want to take advantage of the
grants.
The proposed resolution will transfer $50,000 from Contingency Fund to
Materials & Services. Overall there will be $150,000 available through the city for
small businesses that meet the CARES Act funding criteria.
