Details

The DC Department of Small and Local Business Development (DSLBD) has identified limited funds to assist small and independent retailers impacted by certain streetscape construction, capital infrastructure, or rehabilitation projects in the District.

Accordingly, your retail business has been identified as being located within or between the Connecticut Avenue Streetscape and Deckover Project’s currently active construction zone on Connecticut Ave: 1500 block on the both sides; 1600 block on both sides; 1700 block on sides between R and S Streets NW; and 1800 block on both sides between Florida and California Street NW.

The Department intends to award up to $10,000 per eligible business. This is not a reimbursement grant, so you will not have to provide proof of expenditures. Funds must be used for an ongoing business-related expense.

Please note: If your business has already received funds, please do not reapply. This final opportunity is for the remaining businesses that are eligible to receive any remaining funding.

This is a preliminary notification. Please read closely for next steps.

Please be sure to complete this brief survey so we can verify that we have the correct information for your business. This will also help us confirm that all of your documentation is accurate and up to date, ensuring there are no delays in the disbursement of your funds.

1. The deadline for submitting your application is September 28, 2026.

2. Payment: We will be coordinating payment with a third-party service provider, so you will see communications from them about disbursement.

3. Payment Timeline: If selected for an award, DSLBD aspires to issuing award funds within the first quarter of FY27. Funds will be issued either directly from DSLBD or via a third-party payor.
