EDMONDS — The City of Edmonds is offering grants to small businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
In July, the Edmonds City Council approved the Edmonds Rescue Plan Fund, which supports general business activities, tourism and offers $625,000 in small business grants.
Grants of up to $10,000 will be available to up to 50 eligible businesses this year, with an additional $5,000 available in 2022 for up to 25 businesses.
“The city’s intent with this grant program is to reach those small businesses that were heavily impacted by the COVID-related economic crisis but may also have been somewhat left behind in the flurry of financial aid programs that have come out over the past year and a half,” said Patrick Doherty, the city’s economic development and community services director.
Applications must be received by 5 p.m., Sept. 13.
