Summary
The county approved awards from the Community Economic Opportunity Board: grants totaling $83,600 to multiple local small businesses, with individual awards ranging from $1,000 to $10,000 and post-performance conditions.
Brittany, a member of the Community Economic Opportunity Board, presented the board's recommendations for small-business expansion grants and asked the commission to approve sending award letters. The board had $83,600 to award this cycle and scored applications on projected employees, sales growth, customer growth and matching funds.
