Nearly 150 Santa Clarita Small Businesses To Receive COVID-19 Grant From City

The City of Santa Clarita and Santa Clarita Valley Economic Development Corporation (SCVEDC) are set to announce 149 small businesses within the city who were approved to receive COVID-19 financial grants, officials said Friday.

These Santa Clarita small businesses were approved to receive a one-time financial reimbursement for COVID-related expenses of up to $5,000 per individual business, as a part of the Santa Clarita Small Business COVID Relief Grant, according to the City.

Interested applicants began receiving their approval or denial letters beginning on Thursday, Nov. 19, according to officials.

Verified eligible businesses that have met all specified grant qualifications and requirements can expect to receive grant funds by the end of the year, according to the City.

The Santa Clarita Small Business COVID Relief Grant program was developed utilizing CARES Act funding to provide local small businesses with a one-time financial reimbursement for expenses incurred from business interruption due to COVID-19 impacts.

The Program was approved by the city council on Oct. 13, in response to the urgent needs of Santa Clarita’s business community due to the global pandemic.

The SCVEDC has partnered with the City throughout the life cycle of this program to maximize its impact and expand its reach to eligible small businesses located throughout the Santa Clarita Valley, both in the City of Santa Clarita and in the surrounding unincorporated Los Angeles County areas.
