Record snow (and rain!) has created a very challenging winter in Tahoe City. Many Tahoe City and West Shore businesses have suffered damages and hardships due to power outages, road closures, flooding and more. If your business is in need of help this winter, TCDA, Placer County and the Sierra Business Council want to help!
Economic Injury Disaster Declaration: At least five small businesses in a disaster area have suffered substantial economic injury as a result of the disaster. Substantial economic injury means the business is unable to meet its obligations and to pay its ordinary and necessary operating expenses. EIDLs provide the necessary working capital to help small businesses survive until normal operations resume after a disaster.
If your business feels that you meet the Physical Disaster Declaration or Economic Injury Disaster Declaration criteria, you can contact Sierra Business Council’s Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at (530) 582-5022. The SBDC can help businesses with their loan applications or existing loan modification documentation. Please contact your insurance company first before pursuing an SBA Disaster Loan.Complete these two documents and return: SBA Disaster Loan Fact Sheet & Economic Injury Worksheet.
We look forward to helping make 2017 a great year for our Tahoe City business community!
