MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) - The U.S. Small Business Administration is reminding some Vermont small businesses that they have until May 22 to apply for disaster loans to help recover from damages caused by the effects of freeze and unseasonably warm temperatures last year.
The SBA says those eligible to apply include small businesses, small agricultural cooperatives and most private nonprofit organizations in Addison, Bennington and Rutland counties that suffered damages between Feb. 10 and April 27, 2016.
The three Vermont counties are eligible because they are contiguous to one or more primary counties in New York.
The loans are for working capital and can be up to $2 million.
