After a long winter of closures, local eateries, breweries and wineries have a new opportunity for relief.
Last week, the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved an extra $1 million for a new grant program targeting local businesses â specifically county-based restaurants, breweries and wineries. The program is set to offer $10,000 grants to local businesses that are licensed, opened before the pandemic, have a brick-and-mortar location in the county and offer food or drinks
onsite. They also must have complied with county health orders and have seen significant losses due to COVID-19.
Sacrilege Brewing and Kitchen owner Joe Pacini said he will be applying for the grant program. Along with all other local restaurants, the Main Street brewery had to shut down dining in December and move to takeout only. Pacini said, in the best months, heâs seen around 50 percent of his normal business. The worst months produce closer to 10 percent of normal revenue.
