Grand Coulee offers small-business grants

Grand Coulee business owners have until Nov. 20 to apply for grants of up to $3,000 in federal relief funds the city received.

The city set aside $18,000 for the grants from the $41,799 total in CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, Economic Security) Act funds the city is eligible for. 

Applications can be picked up at Grand Coulee City Hall by first calling 509-633-1150 or emailed to applicants who can call first or email city hall at clerkgc@gccitywa.org to receive an application. 

The grants will be disbursed on a first-come, first-served basis.

The money comes with the stipulation that it is used to cover costs attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Businesses that have already received CARES funds from another resource, such as from Grant County’s small business CARES grants program, are not eligible to apply.

The grant program was approved by the city council at their Oct. 20 meeting.
