Grant Administrator Kimberly Monast presents changes to the Henry County Small Business Restart Grant Program to the Board of Commission Oct. 20.

McDONOUGH — Henry County’s Board of Commissioners voted to make changes to its Small Business Restart Grant Program, which allocates CARES Act funding to the county’s nonprofits and businesses.

The amount of monies will not change — up to $10,000 per applicant is reimbursable. However, some restrictions, such as documents required to provide proof of expenditures, will no longer be required. Additionally, elected officials who have been appointed or have volunteered their time to a committee or board will now be allowed to apply. BOC members or members of the review committee remain unable to apply for funding. Franchise owners are also permitted to apply.
