The Laguna Beach City Council will review and consider the next steps in the city’s COVID-19 relief efforts in its meeting Tuesday.
In December, the council approved the “Laguna Beach Cares” grant program, which provided financial assistance to restaurants, bars and retail businesses impacted by the pandemic.
The program allowed restaurants and bars to apply for $5,000 in aid. Retail establishments that closed could receive $3,000, and those who saw their operating capacity drop to 20% could get $2,000.
After initially setting aside $650,000 to assist restaurants and bars in town, the Laguna Beach Cares program still has $240,000 in available funds.
There was also $200,000 allocated for impacted retail businesses, but the number of applicants exceeded the funds allotted to help the retail sector. ....

Around Town: Laguna Beach launches matching grant program for COVID-19 relief


The Laguna Beach City Council approved $1.4 million in assistance for businesses and the community, including a grant program called “LB Cares” to provide financial relief to local restaurants, bars and retail businesses.
The Boys and Girls Club of Laguna Beach is also assisting with application submission and the delivery of the grants, which will be paid out primarily by checks and gift cards.
“Right now, we are in the darkest days of this pandemic and hundreds of local workers and residents have been laid off again,” Laguna Beach Mayor Bob Whalen said in a statement. “They are stretched to the breaking point to pay their rent, keep their utilities turned on and feed their families. I urge our community to do what it always does in times of crisis which is to rise to the challenge and raise $300,000 to match the city funds. Please dig deep and give what you can to help the cause.” ....
