City Hall gets a batch of grant applications

Only one full day since city leaders cast their vote, Walhalla has been flooded by applications for business assistance grants from the city’s Downtown Development Corporation. So far, according to what the city administrator said today, nearly 20 applications have been received for the available $300 dollar grants. That would be about one-half of the potential number of businesses who are eligible for the COVID-19 impact-related assistance. The city is accepting applications from businesses with storefronts anywhere in the city, not just on Main Street.
