With the goal of ensuring that no money from its $12.8 million CARES Act funding be “left on the table,” Lebanon County Commissioners voted unanimously Thursday to spend the remaining balance of just over $600,000.
The vote means more businesses that applied for funding in the first two rounds will now receive financial assistance. The vote also includes several local nonprofit organizations as part of the approved $600,268 expenditure.
The county’s CARES Grant Committee, which consists of county and local economic development officials, agreed to lower the established rating score used in the first two rounds to determine which businesses will get funds. The score was lowered from 45 to 38 for businesses who met the funding criteria, which was still consistent for the funding requirements during the first two rounds.
