San Antonio eatery passed over for COVID-recovery grant will now get money following media inquiries
Editor's note: This story was updated to include a more recent statement from LiftFund explaining why officials there reversed a rejection of Candlelight Pourhouse's application. After media scrutiny into why Candlelight Pourhouse was apparently passed over for a city recovery grant it applied for, the St. Mary's Strip restaurant was retroactively awarded the money on Wednesday. The 28-year-old business applied for the funds through the city's COVID-19/Construction Recovery Grant Program, which was established to provide grants of up to $35,000 to businesses harmed by the pandemic and ongoing construction projects.
