Mammoth Lakes, CA – The Town of Mammoth Lakes established a Business Assistance Program to help retain local jobs, keep storefronts tenanted, and support the local economy in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and statewide Stay-At-Home Order. To date, the Town has completed three rounds of funding injecting over $280,000 into our local small businesses.

On December 8, Town Council allocated an additional $400,000 to the program and revised the guidelines to allow businesses with gross revenues up to $3,000,000 to apply for funding. This program is designed to help small business owners impacted by COVID-19 stay afloat during this unprecedented time.

Qualified small businesses can apply for grants of up to $20,000 to utilize for business costs including rent or mortgage, payroll, utilities, insurance, loan payments related to running the business and any other documented costs of business operations.
