Tacotarian and Dig It Coffee are just two of the many businesses that have taken advantage of the Business Security Grant Program in Las Vegas. This program, which has already distributed nearly $1 million in funds, provides up to $10,000 to qualified businesses to enhance their security measures.
For example, Tacotarian used the grant to improve their camera system, which played a vital role in identifying suspects during a recent break-in. While cameras are valuable tools, co-owner Carlos Corral emphasizes that a comprehensive security strategy goes beyond just surveillance. Other businesses, like Chops Barbershop and 18bin, have also taken advantage of the funding to bolster their security measures with new locks, lighting, cameras, and more.
There is still approximately $250,000 available in funding for businesses within Las Vegas city limits that meet the program’s criteria. Qualified businesses must be located in a qualified census tract, be zoned for commercial, industrial, or mixed-use, have 500 employees or less, and have been operating since December 2019.
