There is one week left to apply for the Bar and Restaurant Assistance Fund. Businesses can receive assistance payments of $2,500 by applying on the Ohio Development Services Agency’s website.

The Bar and Restaurant Assistance Fund is designed to assist Ohio businesses with on-premise liquor permits. The fund is non-competitive and will remain open for business owners until Jan. 31.

Governor Mike DeWine has designated $38.7 million of funding received by the State of Ohio from the federal CARES Act to provide payments to help restaurant and bar through the financial difficulties experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic.
