Small businesses in Orange County, California, have lost no time in applying for a second round of local relief funding for commercial enterprises impacted by COVID-19.
The application period for the second round of the county’s Layoff Aversion Support Fund Program opened Aug. 3 and was scheduled to run through Aug. 6—but the window slammed shut early when the number of applications hit the limit, according to the Orange County Workforce Development Board (OCWDB).
