Botetourt EDA reports eight small-business grant awards; receipts due April 24
Summary
EDA staff reported March 20 that eight small-business grant awards have been made; awardees are submitting required documentation and have until April 24 to turn in receipts. Staff plan site visits and marketing outreach for the program.
Mr. Luke Campbell told the Economic Development Authority that the EDA has awarded eight small-business grants to date and that many awardees are in the process of turning in their documentation. He said the deadline for awardees to submit receipts and final paperwork is April 24.
Campbell said staff will coordinate with Communications Director Brent Watts to conduct site visits to some winners’ businesses and to support marketing of the program. The minutes do not list the awardees by name, the grant amounts, or the specific uses for each award; staff indicated they are working with recipients to collect that information.
The board did not record further action on the grants at the meeting beyond the status update; staff will continue outreach and documentation collection.
