Why are apartment complexes, national corporations, and food processors excluded?

Apartment complexes are excluded, as their tenants are already eligible for relief via the City of Fairview’s Residential Relief Program. The intent of the program is to assist those local businesses struggling the most during this pandemic. Because we anticipate national corporations and food processors have a higher likelihood of obtaining assistance elsewhere, they were excluded from Fairview’s program. Additionally, it is unlikely that even our largest available assistance of $1,000 would provide any significant relief to a business in this category.
