NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARINGS
SMALL BUSINESS RECOVERY ASSISTANCE
The County of Brunswick plans to apply for Community Development Block Grant funds up to $550,000
from the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development for the Brunswick County Small Business
Recovery Assistance Fund (SBRAF). Through the Brunswick County SBRAF, the County will help businesses meet
their long-term business goals by adjusting to COVID-19 demands. Establishing safe and clean re-opening procedures,
in accordance with the Governor’s guidance, is necessary for the safety of customers and employees. It will allow businesses
to regain and sustain operations, ideally helping them retain existing staff, fill vacant positions, create new jobs, and become
more efficient and resilient. Grant assistance to small businesses adversely impacted by COVID-19 will be offered in the
form of space and technology upgrades, sanitation supplies, job training/technical assistance, rent/mortgage assistance,
and utility assistance. The maximum grant award to a business will be $10,000.00.
