Bucks County Courier Times
Tourism in Bucks County is big business and the hospitality industry feeds and shelters those who visit here.
To help the industry get back to normal as more people are vaccinated and the pandemic eases this coming spring and summer, the county is funneling $7.1 million in state grants of $5,000 to $50,000 to qualifying restaurants, bars, hotels and motels.
Applications will be taken from March 15 through April 2 electronically for these “first come, first served” grants.
Called CHIRP, for COVID-19 Hospitality Industry Recovery Program, the funding will provide assistance to those businesses employing fewer than 300 full-time equivalent workers and that have maximum tangible net worth of not more that $15 million.
