A Hays County program to provide economic relief to small businesses whose futures are in jeopardy due to the coronavirus pandemic is not yet up and running. Because the commissioners court does not meet on June 16, it’s unlikely to be much closer by the end of this month.

The structure of the Economic Cash Assistance Program (ECAP) was approved by the court June 2, designed as a partnership between the county and municipalities, each of which would be able to appoint board members.

Each governmental entity would be required to help fund the effort in exchange for input on who winds up on the Awards Committee.
