The Recover Danville Alliance is proud to release the Danville Area Business Reopening Playbook! The playbook gives guidance and resources to businesses to support them in their efforts to serve their customers and the community in a safe and sustainable fashion as we all navigate the current and ongoing pandemic.
With the COVID-19 pandemic creating, almost daily, changes to both our general and business communities we wanted to provide a weekly platform to provide updates as to what has transpired over the previous week (CARES Act, Shelter In Place, Essential Business Designations, County Health Services Declarations, Economic Development etc.). Further, to assist with visioning, as we look forward to what resources and actions will need to be taken today, to prepare for our future recovery.

The importance of small business to our local community is emotionally rooted in the act of buying and selling with and from our friends and neighbors. This is most represented by our local restaurants, service providers and specialized retailers. All of these businesses are the fabric of our community, providing us with materials and services that we all need on a daily basis, while giving back to the community through fundraisers, donations, sales tax revenue and overall community financial health! When we patronize local small businesses, we are essentially giving money back to our own local community. This money is then used for local police and fire departments as well as our great schools. Our thriving small businesses also help to improve and maintain the property values throughout the community, improving every homeowner’s bottom line while generating more property taxes for our local government and services.
