The Review Committee will consider the following priorities when awarding grants and loans:
- The number of jobs that the business sustains during a normal business cycle (pre-COVID-19 levels).
- The business demonstrates that it has lost a significant share (50% or more) of revenue due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
- The business demonstrates a strong chance of remaining open post COVID-19.
- The business has experienced loss of revenue from other situations in addition to COVID-19, such as recent public works projects (i.e. water main breaks, utility repairs, street closures).
- The business provides jobs to low-income individuals and/or is located in a zip code with high poverty.
- The business has operated consistently for two years or more.
- For sole proprietors/independent contractors, priority will be given to those who are located in zip codes with high poverty and/or those that sustain multiple sub-contractors during normal business (pre-COVID-19 levels).
Based on the applicant pool, the Review Committee may choose to add further priorities or change eligibility criteria in the subsequent weeks.
