Mayor London Breed has announced three new measures today to help small businesses in the Bay Area. Here’s a summary of the new measures:
Unified License fee extension
San Francisco will extend the deadlines for businesses to pay their annual 2020 and 2021 Unified License Fees. Learn More from the Office of the Treasurer & Tax Collector.
Shared Spaces reimbursement
Locally owned businesses that either hold or have applied for a Shared Spaces permit are eligible to receive up to $5,000 in reimbursement from the City, which will help businesses that have been forced to close outdoor operations as a result of the recent Stay at Home Order and prepare for an eventual reopening. Learn more about Shared Spaces.
Latino Small Business Fund
San Francisco is also launching the San Francisco Latino Small Business Fund, which includes $3.2 million to expand the San Francisco Hardship and Emergency Loan Program (SF HELP) that will provide zero interest loans of up to $50,000 to approximately 80 small businesses. Small businesses interested in applying for the San Francisco Latino Small Business Fund can visit link.oewd.org/latinofund.
