Leung, City Manager - 949-644-3001, gleung@newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Tara Finnigan, Deputy City Manager, tfinnigan@newportbeachca.gov PHONE: 949-644-3035 TITLE: Coronavirus Relief Funds Grant Agreement and Small Business Relief Grant Program ABSTRACT - The County of Orange is allocating $2,123,426.69 in Coronavirus Relief Funds for the City of Newport Beach to use for the economic support of small businesses. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City's participation in the program and authorize the City Manager to develop and implement a Small Business Relief Grant Program to provide grant monies to eligible Newport Beach businesses. RECOMMENDATION: a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly; b) Authorize the City of Newport Beach to participate in the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act Grant Program as a subrecipient of the County of Orange; and c) Authorize the City Manager to take any and all action necessary to develop and administer a Small Business Relief Grant Program, funded with the $2,123,426.69 in Coronavirus Relief Funds, in accordance with the Grant Agreement between the City of Newport Beach and County of Orange. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: There is no direct fiscal impact related to this item. The entirety of the grant program, including the cost of retaining a contract administrator, would be funded with the $2,123,426.69 in Coronavirus Relief Funds received through the County of Orange. 1-1 Coronavirus Relief Funds Grant Agreement and Small Business Relief Grant Program June 1, 2020 Page 2 DISCUSSION: Funding The County of Orange (County) received more than $500 million under the Federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). On May 26, the Orange County Board of Supervisors (Board) agreed to allocate $75 million of the CARES Act funds received by the County to cities for economic support initiatives. Each of the five County Supervisors received $15 million to distribute to cities within their respective supervisorial districts. Supervisor and Board Chair Michelle Steel, the Second District representative, has chosen to allocate the funds directly to the cities in her district. The City of Newport Beach (City) will receive $2,123,426.69 of these Coronavirus Relief Funds for small business support. Under the subrecipient grant agreement between the County and the City (Attachment), the funds must be used to pay for expenses associated with "the provision of economic support to small businesses located in the Second District in connection with the COVID- 19 public health emergency, including expenditures related to the provision of grants to small businesses to reimburse the costs of business interruption caused by required closures and unemployment insurance costs related to the COVID-19 public health emergency if such costs will not otherwise be reimbursed by the federal government." Proposed Grant Program The Council Ad Hoc to Address Commercial Re -opening and Business Advancement (Ad Hoc Committee), comprised of Mayor Will O'Neill and Council Members Diane Dixon and Kevin Muldoon, has been identifying ways to help Newport Beach's small businesses reopen and recover safely and quickly, as the businesses receive the greenlight from the State of California to reopen. The Ad Hoc Committee has been working with local business leaders and City staff to identify business support programs, such as the City's recently adopted Fast Track Back to Business program. Potential loan programs using CDBG and other CARES Act funding, have also been discussed. These loans can be onerous and costly for the City to manage, as well as burdensome for small businesses, already facing financial challenges, to obtain. However, if the COVID-19 pandemic continues to financially impact local businesses, the City may eventually choose to offer a loan program. Use of the County CARES Act funding requires the City to establish a grant program specifically for small businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Ad Hoc Committee and staff are very supportive of this option as it will enable the City to provide working capital promptly to those businesses in most need of immediate financial assistance. 1-2 Coronavirus Relief Funds Grant Agreement and Small Business Relief Grant Program June 1, 2020 Page 3 Program Administration Staff has had constructive conversations with the district director for the Orange County Small Business Development Council (OC SBDC), a nonprofit that is administering a number of the small business support loan and grant programs currently being offered by other local cities. For nearly 30 years, OC SBDC has provided small businesses with no - cost consulting services, training opportunities, and access to an extensive network of resources, including loan packaging assistance. Since it has developed CARES Act related loan and grant programs for other cities, OC SBDC already has the framework, tools and staffing in place to immediately assist the City with its grant program. Staff believes SBDC is well qualified to help the City rapidly implement a fair and equitable grant program and to help ensure all required records are maintained and reports are submitted. Therefore, staff will retain OC SBDC to administer this program, pending finalizing the program and administrative costs. As a nonprofit, and with tools already developed, we anticipate the cost to administer the program will be modest. Proposed Program Parameters Based on its research, and through discussions with the Ad Hoc Committee, Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce president Steve Rosansky, other cities and OC SBDC, staff is proposing the program framework outlined below. Staff is seeking the Council's input on these program parameters and welcomes any additional guidance the Council suggests. Eligibility in accordance with federal requirements To be eligible to apply for the Small Business Relief Grant Program, a business would need to meet certain criteria under the CARES Act and the business must demonstrate the need for financial support due to the temporary loss of revenue resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Stay at Home order. An applicant would need to prove that their business has been affected by COVID-19 in one of the following ways: • The business was deemed non-essential and was forced to shut down by the state or local government; • Sales from the business are down more than 25 percent compared to the previous three months (Prior to February 15, 2020); • The business has had to lay off at least one of its employees (full- or part-time employee); or • One or more of the employees in the business have contracted COVID-19, while at work. Newport Beach Terms and Conditions In addition, staff proposes that a business should be required to meet the following minimum requirements in order to be considered for grant funding: 1-3 Coronavirus Relief Funds Grant Agreement and Small Business Relief Grant Program June 1, 2020 Page 4 • It must be a for-profit business and located within Newport Beach city limits; • The business must be legal and located in a commercial or industrial space; • The officers of the business must reside in Orange County, California; • The business must have an active Newport Beach business license for a minimum of six (6) months; • The business must have 20 or less full-time, or an equivalent combination of full and part time employees, including the owner; • The business must be in good standing with the City, meaning it must be current on its business license fees or business improvement district assessment (or in good standing on its payment plan for either of these fees) and it must not have any existing municipal code violations. • The business must disclose whether they have received capital from the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) or an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL). If a business received PPP or EIDL funds, it is still eligible to receive City grant funds. However, priority will be given to applicants that have not received funding through these programs. • The business must follow the State's re -opening guidance for their industry. • The business must submit the application and all required supporting documentation. Grant Amounts Applicants would be eligible to receive a grant of up to $10,000 according to the following: • Businesses with less than 5 employees are eligible for a grant of $5,000. • Businesses with 6-10 employees are eligible for a grant of $7,500. • Businesses with 11-20 employees are eligible for a grant of $10,000. Funding Priority The program would be open to any small business that meets the eligibility criteria, terms and conditions, and staff anticipates that the number of qualifying applicants will exceed the number of grants available. In an effort to provide assistance to businesses in the City's commercial and industrial areas that have been severely impacted by COVID-19, staff recommends that retail, restaurant and personal service establishments (specifically, hair salons and barber shops, nail salons, small gyms / health clubs), that provide services onsite, be given precedence. Qualified applications from these types of businesses would be given priority during the grant allocation process. 1-4 Coronavirus Relief Funds Grant Agreement and Small Business Relief Grant Program June 1, 2020 Page 5 Next Steps Staff recommends the City Council authorize the City Manager to develop the grant program, based on input received from the City Council and in consultation with OC SBDC, and advertise the program as soon as it is feasible to do so. Staff understands the importance of getting the grant monies distributed to help local businesses as soon as possible as they work to reopen their businesses. In addition, the CARES Act states that funds must be used for costs incurred between March 1, 2020 and December 30, 2020. The grant application and award process is anticipated as follows: Program is advertised and OC SBDC offers webinars offering guidance to help small business owners better understand the program and complete their applications. 2. The application period is opened for a set amount of days. Applications can be submitted electronically or in hard copy. Applicants must self -certify that the funds will only be used for expenses permitted under the program. 3. OC SBDC vets the applications. If the number of qualifying applications received exceeds the amount of grant monies available, OC SBDC will use a lottery system for ranking the applications. Funding priority would still be given to retail, restaurants and personal services establishments (hair salons and barber shops, nail salons, small gyms/ health clubs). 4. OCBC consultants work with the applicants, in the order they are ranked, to collect required documentation. 5. Once the initial documentation is received, the City releases 50 percent of the payment to the grant recipient. 6. The grant recipient is given a set amount of time to produce documentation that the grant monies are being used to fund eligible expenses. Once the documentation is received, the City releases the remaining 50 percent of the grant to the recipient. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. 1-5 Coronavirus Relief Funds Grant Agreement and Small Business Relief Grant Program June 1, 2020 Page 6 NOTICING: The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (24 hours in advance of the special meeting at which the City Council considers the item).
