In an effort to help businesses located in the downtown Business Improvement District (BID) overcome the financial, marketing and operational challenges resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Downtown Tucson Partnership has teamed up with Pima County to create the Downtown Outdoor Café Grant and Downtown Rebound Grant Programs.
The Downtown Outdoor Café Grant Program is intended to help businesses build, expand or enhance their outdoor café areas by reimbursing costs associated with higher quality barriers, furnishings and amenities for outdoor seating areas. The Program provides a grant for eligible project costs up to a maximum of $5,000.
The Downtown Rebound Grant Program is designed to off-set costs associated with COVID-19 expenses required to safely reopen under the new guidelines put forth by the CDC, State of Arizona, and/or Pima County. The Program provides a reimbursement grant for eligible project costs up to a maximum of $2,000. For more information visit DowntownTucson.org.
