To receive City emails with latest updates, residents should go to <br />https://www.louisvilleco.gov/i-want-to/read-the-community-update-newsletter-copy. <br /> <br />BUSINESS ASSISTANCE: <br />Staff has created a webpage for business resources <br />(https://www.louisvilleco.gov/business/economic-development/services). A “Shop Local” <br />campaign has been launched to encourage continued support of local businesses (i.e. <br />shopping online or by phone, placing orders for wholesale products, buying gift cards, <br />ordering takeout or delivery of food and promoting a business online through social <br />media or other websites like Google and Yelp). <br /> <br />The City is also listing all offers and promotions from local businesses on the webpage. <br />Any local business can submit this information online for inclusion. Staff also sent out a <br />survey to local businesses asking what type of support would be useful in the coming <br />months. Staff has shared information on disaster loans available to businesses from the <br />Small Business Administration, as well. <br /> <br />COMMUNITY SUPPORT: <br />Staff has created a webpage for those affected by COVID-19 <br />(https://www.louisvilleco.gov/residents/coronavirus-update/community-resources). <br />There is information on resources available through Boulder County and the State of <br />Colorado, as well as volunteer and donation opportunities for local organizations, <br />financial assistance, scams, taking care of yourself and senior resources. <br /> <br />While the Senior Center is closed until further notice, the Brooks Café Meal Program is <br />offering curbside and takeout for meals.

Once the facility reopens, staff will work <br />with all pass holders to extend their expiration date to mirror the time lost due to the <br />closure.
