HDC/HRC/SDC Economic Resiliency & Business Recovery Plan – Step 1

Request: Provide a list of businesses that could start to re-open with adherence to strict
public health guidelines.
The table below lists certain types of businesses the Governor’s Office, in consultation with
the Department of Health, should consider for re-opening following strict public health
guidelines if the industry determines compliance is possible. Additional considerations
include:


Use of PPE should be limited, and alternatives such as homemade cloth masks
should be recommended until supply chain issues are resolved.



Require county public health organizations to provide advice via county Associated
Development Organizations (ADOs, such as economic development organizations)
on how to comply with public health guidelines.



Consider providing technical assistance grants to local Chambers, Main Streetaffiliated organizations, Business Improvement Area-funded organizations,
downtown associations and other non-profit organizations with expertise to offer
technical assistance to local businesses. Mandate funding goes toward helping
businesses understand rules and regulations for re-opening under these strict
guidelines, as well as accessing other types of financial assistance and support.
