Council members are working on a permanent and citywide grant to ensure no other small businesses are harmed by major infrastructure projects.
For the last couple of years, business owners on the St Mary’s Strip are all feeling the pain of construction.“We certainly never envisioned going out because of something that’s beyond our control, which is, in my opinion, a mishandled city infrastructure project,” Pena said.
District One Councilwoman Sukh Kaur said council members are working to bring lasting and citywide relief through a permanent construction grant fund for any major infrastructure project. “Our city council really wants to work hard to make sure that they are being supported and preventing any negative impact so that we don’t have situations like this occurring again when the next project is up,” Kaur said.
