To be eligible, a business must have a physical location in Bath County and employ 25 or fewer employees, as of March 31, 2020.
Applications will be reviewed by the Bath County Economic Development Authority Grant Review Committee.
This committee is comprised of three EDA board members who make recommendations to the full EDA Board of Directors. 
The EDA Grant Review Committee has the authority to determine if any applicant has provided sufficient information to be eligible to receive a grant under this program. 
If the EDA Grant Review Committee determines any information is insufficient or if they require additional information, a letter outlining the deficiencies will be sent to the applicant so they have the opportunity to correct said deficiencies.
The due date for this grant is 4 p.m. on Oct. 9, 2020. 
No late applications will be accepted. 
Applicants are strongly encouraged to apply early in case there are deficiencies in the application so there is adequate time to correct them before the deadline.
