Kron fours Taylor Bisacky explains how the loan saved of Mission District tavern. From going under. There are a ton of costs that come with with just you know. You know then whether or not youre bringing income or and delivery and takeout its certainly not anywhere near the levels that. It was if we were able to operate just a normal normal time. Coowner of monks carrollton at color says keeping a Small Business running is even more challenging now since San Francisco went under a shelterinplace order. The Mission District tavern was forced to cut back to a Skeleton Crew in transition to takeout and Delivery Services like a e r a room.

Some liquid hate gave him some cushion color says it wasnt enough to keep the business open after many, but then they received a Paycheck Protection Program or ppp loan in his first round which gives the Small Business shortterm cash flow for things like payroll rent and utilities getting the pdp learned a broom was like i think i you know again if it doesnt it doesnt mean were out of the woods, you know this is a very long gives us a lot better chance to get through it. For color and the monks cattle, the ppp loan meant that employees can return to work and brought back over fulltime employees. And which felt you know too. To be able to say like heres i can pay you in they got to get to you however color says the loan is only to be used within 8 weeks which leaves some wondering what happens after that definitely gets s much further into the summer and any non where all this goes and how. You know its its it stays as a delivery take a model of it. It shows to kind of you know. After nasty and restaurant but also doing delivery and takeout. The law also needs to be paid back within 2 years and theres even more limitations for businesses that are completely closed right now thats because the loan is only forgiven if 75 of the firm given amount hes used to keep employees on the payroll on taylor sackey reporting kron 4 news.

Yeah firefighters are rush out youre a place but you can make it easier for them by clearing out all that debris around your house, lets face it robin its been extremely dry.
