SBA Disaster Loan Support Coming to Mono County

Mono County has submitted an Economic Injury Disaster declaration to the U.S. Small Business Administration, with approval expected early next week.

Once finalized, SBA Customer Service Representatives are expected to return to Mono County in February to support businesses impacted by the 2025 late December winter storms and the Pack Fire, including in-person Disaster Loan Outreach Centers planned for June Lake and Lee Vining.

The DLOC schedule will be finalized following SBA approval, and additional details will be shared as soon as they are available.

Businesses, self-employed, and work-from-home individuals are encouraged to connect with SBA to learn about low-interest Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) and recovery resources.

Thank you to the local businesses who completed EIDL worksheets, as well as CalOES and the SBA, for coordinating this effort on behalf of Mono County.
