The Midland City Council will consider today using $1 million of its federal CARES act funding to help small businesses affected by the coronavirus pandemic and shutdowns.
If approved, 963 businesses will receive a $10,000 grant to make up for lost revenue because of closures and decreased customer demand, according to an agenda packet for today’s meeting. The remaining $37,000 will go to Midland College for administering the program.
