Appropriates $30 million to EDA from federal "Coronavirus Relief Fund" to assist certain live entertainment venues.
S 2447 allocates $30 million from the federal Coronavirus Relief Fund (established under the CARES Act) to New Jersey's Economic Development Authority (EDA) to provide grants to live entertainment venues. These grants cover costs from business interruptions caused by the coronavirus pandemic, such as those from pandemic-related restrictions. The bill excludes venues regularly featuring performances involving specified anatomical exposure or sexual activity, as defined by state law. The EDA must develop rules to administer the program under state administrative procedures, and the bill takes effect immediately.
