Safer at Home 

We want our community to take the right precautions to slow down the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Hillsborough County and the City of Tampa recently enacted a “Safer at Home” order. Click here for the full directive. With this new order, essential businesses can continue operation, and restaurants can operate on a delivery or take-out only basis.  

Most restaurants in Ybor City are continuing to operate according to the “Safer at Home” order, but please call them directly for specifics. 

If your business is taking a hit financially during this crisis, the State of Florida is offering loan programs to help. Here are more resources and information on obtaining loans for business owners in the district.
