Mayor Tommy Eschete would like to provide an update in reference to the federal stimulus package and how it impacts the businesses in Thibodaux.  The recent stimulus package provides relief to local communities in many ways.  If you would like to see all the sections of this bill please check the web-link below:

 

https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/3548/text

Specifically, the Cares Act, Small Business Interruptions section provides small business relief.  It is designed to prevent layoffs and business closures while workers have to stay home during the outbreak.   Companies with 500 employees or fewer that maintain their payroll during coronavirus can receive up to 8 weeks of cash-flow assistance. If employers maintain payroll, the portion of the loans used for covered payroll costs, interest on mortgage obligations, rent, and utilities would be forgiven. Here is some information on the SBA loan process:

https://www.sba.gov/page/coronavirus-covid-19-small-business-guidance-loan-resources

The intent of the CARES Act is to utilize local banks to dispense the small business loans.  To find a SBA approved vendor please click the link below:

In addition to the small business relief, several federal business restrictions and limitations have been relaxed.  The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) net operating loss rules are modified. The 80% rule is lifted, and losses can now be carried back five years.  The excess loss limitation (ELL) rules for pass-through entities are suspended.  The interest expense limitations are increased to 50% from 30% for tax years beginning in 2019 or 2020. Taxpayers can also elect to calculate the interest limitation for 2020 using their 2019 adjusted taxable income as the relevant base, which often will be significantly higher.

The City of Thibodaux is committed to serving all residents, businesses and institutions in this region.  As the information becomes available, the City of Thibodaux will continue to provide updates to assist everyone in moving forward each day.
