The Board considered action on revisions to procedures, guidelines and a 2019 timeline for the Sand Dollars for Success grant program. “This will be our third year,” EDC Director Darla Lapeyre said. She shared that the University of Texas – Rio Grande Valley’s (UTRGV) Small Business Development Center will be teaching three courses as a part of the training for participants. Grants will be awarded during the EDC’s board meeting in May, Lapeyre said.
