Sean Kennedy of the National Restaurant Association provided the Chamber with vital information for our members who operate restaurants or bars and might be eligible for the Small Business Administration’s new Restaurant Revitalization Fund which begins the application process Monday, May 3.
This program targets relief to restaurants and bars adversely impacted by Covid-19. To qualify a place of business has to be primarily a restaurant or bar. Venues, where food or beverages are incidental to the primary mission, will not qualify. The Small Business Administration has details of the program on their website. The SBA also has a document explaining the program available as a download. Click Here to access that document.
You can apply through SBA-recognized Point of Sale (POS) vendors or directly with the SBA. Participating POS providers include Square, Toast, Clover, NCR Corporation (Aloha). If you are working with Square or Toast, you do not need to register on the SBA application portal.
CLICK HERE to access the application portal that goes live this Monday, May 3, at 12:00 EST. There is a 21-day priority period for some applications. Even if you do not qualify for the 21-day priority period, you should submit your grant application as early as possible.

Our Key Strategies:
The 1,200 representatives of community leaders, member businesses, and organizations that are the Hurst Euless Bedford Chamber of Commerce have joined together to speak to our local legislative representatives with one voice. Our vision is for legislation that will result in the greatest economic and community prosperity in Hurst Euless Bedford, Tarrant County, the North Texas Region, and the State of Texas. Our agenda seeks the continuation of the economic success our state and region currently enjoy by creating sound policies that ensure we have the necessary tools, talent, infrastructure, and healthcare systems for economic and community prosperity.
• Keep all current economic development tools including reauthorization of Chapter 313 and funding the Governor’s, Enterprise Fund.
• Fund and protect HB3 making only minor tweaks necessary to correct unintended consequences in the original drafting of the legislation.
• Maintain the funding from Propositions 1 and 7 and explore creative financing methods including expanded public-private partnerships to leverage state investment in critical transportation infrastructure.
• Maximize federal funds to expand healthcare coverage and access through both the public and private market, including the use of Medicaid 1115 waivers and Local Provider Participation Funds.
