MGN
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KION) The California Office of Emergency Services announced that the U.S. Small Business Administration is offering drought-related federal disaster loans to some California counties, and the Central Coast is included.
OES said small non-farm businesses in Monterey, San Benito, Santa Cruz, San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties are eligible to apply for a low-interest loan to cover financial losses caused by reduced revenues due to a drought that started late last month.
“SBA eligibility covers both the economic impacts on businesses dependent on farmers and ranchers that have suffered agricultural production losses caused by the disaster and businesses directly impacted by the disaster,” said Director Tanya N. Garfield of SBA’s Disaster Field Operations Center-West.
