The City of Jacksonville's Neighborhoods, Community Services, Public Health and Safety Committee is reviewing a proposal to adjust an existing grant program. This program currently supports targeted businesses with annual revenues up to $400,000. The proposed change would extend the grant period from June 1, 2025, to May 31, 2026, to a new period of January 1, 2026, to December 31, 2026. Additionally, the proposal seeks to increase the revenue limit for eligible businesses from $400,000 to $750,000 annually. This item is currently under review by the committee. While no direct construction work is outlined, this adjustment could lead to increased funding opportunities for eligible local businesses. Businesses that provide professional services, such as accounting, legal, or consulting, may be particularly interested in this program. Reaching out to the city early could provide insight into how to best position your business for potential grant opportunities.
