“I was really excited about that. I was really looking forward to receiving those funds, especially being a small business. It’s a lot of money," Paris said.
On Dec. 16, she received a letter from the SBDC. It indicated that Paris was selected because she met the established priorities by the City of Chula Vista to fund the hardest-hit businesses.It didn’t arrive. Instead she received an apology letter from SBDC’s Executive Director Daniel Fitzgerald. It states that unfortunately, due to a data transfer error, the letter was sent in error.
“I never really thought something like this would even happen, especially from the city, “ Paris said. In part of an emailed statement to NBC 7, Fitzgerald wrote,"When notifications were sent out to the awardees, our system also notified some applicants that are eligible and met some, but not all of the priorities.”“It was a huge surprise and really just caught me off guard,” Paris said.Frankly, she’s not holding her breath.
NBC 7 reached out to the city of Chula Vista. A spokesperson says the City of Chula Vista provides the money for the Small Business and Nonprofit Relief Fund. The program is being administered through the San Diego Foundation and the Small Business Development Center.
