The San Marcos City Council revised the Revive SMTX small business grant program to correlate with updated Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines at its April 6 meeting.
The new guidelines require small businesses who receive grant funding to follow CDC COVID-19 guidelines. The guidelines will only be enforced for businesses that did not sign grant contracts before April 6.
At the beginning of the agenda item, council members discussed whether the city would advise all businesses to follow the new guidelines. Councilmember Shane Scott says enforcing guidelines to receive grants is not what local businesses need.
