A new grant is coming to help out renters in the Greater Williamsburg area.
The Williamsburg Health Foundation announced on Monday the City of Williamsburg, James City County and York County would receive a $1 million grant to help prevent Greater Williamsburg residents from rental evictions during the coronavirus pandemic.
“There is a profound, multifaceted connection between one’s housing and one’s health,” Carol L. Sale, WHF president and CEO, said in a statement from a news release. “So profound that Trustees of the Williamsburg Health Foundation made the challenging decision to increase the foundation’s annual spending limit this year which required reaching into the foundation’s corpus to fund this program.”
In Business Notes: The Pavilion at Williamsburg and the Farley Center on Mooretown Road in James City County purchased; Muddy Marley’s Dog Wash opening; new trustees for Williamsburg Health Foundation; NDP has been named agency of record for Chesapeake Bank; and local businesses have extended their leases.
