Township Council Goes To ‘Plan B’ For CDBG Grant Money, Will Help Renters

November 28, 2020 Coronavirus, Township Council Taxes

Getting almost non-existent response from East Franklin businesses to a COVID-19 relief grant program, the Township Council has decided to instead use the money to help township renters.

Mayor Phil Kramer said at the November 24 virtual Township Council meeting that given that only one business owner applied for the special Coronavirus Aid Relief & Economic Security (CARES) Act grant, the Council’s Financial Oversight Committee has recommended using the money set aside for that and other COVID-related money to help township renters who have fallen behind on their rents as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
