In June, 23 small business owners received a certificate of occupancy or written authorization to 'Open for Business' from Prince William County Department of Development Services, bringing the year-to-date total to 200 small businesses that have opened successfully.

"The Small Business Project Management Program (SBPM) offers small business customers one-on-one support for the length of the project. A Project Manager will lay out all the required steps a customer must take in order to obtain permits and open for business," said Mandi Spina, Director, Department of Development Services. "Qualifications for the SBPM include business owners who are managing their own projects and businesses with 35 or fewer employees."

To date, 2,376 new and existing independent small business owners and entrepreneurs have received services and assistance thanks to the Department's Small Business Project Management Program (SBPM), which provides one-on-one customer assistance and project support through the commercial real estate development and building permitting process.

To qualify for the SBPM program, customers must have 35 or fewer employees and manage their own project. The SBPM program also assists customers in determining if their business idea aligns with the authorized uses and zoning of a property location. It is important to note that national chains are not eligible for the program.
