NEWBURGH CITY, NEW YORK, USA, May 26, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Newburgh City Council announces the launch of its Small Business Grant Assistance Program, which will allocate $200,000 of ARPA funds to affected City businesses for losses related to COVID-19. The City Council expects to award approximately 20 local small businesses a one-time cash grant distributed in each of the City’s four wards. He application The term will officially launch via the City’s website on Friday, May 26 and runs through Friday, July 28. The City expects to award all small business grant assistance by October 31, 2023.

Councilwoman Ramona Monteverde: “The City Council is very supportive of our local businesses – they are the foundation of our City’s unique and diverse neighborhoods. Giant corporations took the lion’s share of federal COVID-19 assistance while our local small businesses were passed over. The City Council’s Small Business Grant Assistance Program will create a small measure of economic justice by redirecting ARPA funds to those most affected by COVID-19 losses: our City’s local small businesses.”

The Newburgh City Council Small Business Grant Assistance Program will allow eligible City for-profit businesses to apply for cash assistance to help mitigate revenue losses related to COVID-19. Greater consideration will be given to businesses owned by women, minorities and veterans; microenterprises that employ 10 or fewer people; and those businesses in a “vulnerable sector” as defined by the US Treasury, including restaurants, retail, hospitality, arts and entertainment. Application instructions will be shared with interested businesses as program details are finalized. The expenses must have been incurred between March 3, 2020 and March 3, 2021.
