Grant funds available for eligible businesses

by | Nov 26, 2020 | Latest

The Farmersville City Coun­cil has set in motion a process for local businesses to apply for funds to assist them in cop­ing with the COVID-19 pan­demic, allowing them to re­ceive a portion of grant money tied to funds that Collin County has in hand.

The council decision came Nov. 17 at a special meeting. The city eventually will disburse as much as $40,000 to all eligible businesses that apply and are ap­proved by an ad hoc committee set up to review the applications. Councilmembers approved the resolution unanimously.
