Thank you to the volunteers and Kingsley Lumber, Northern Building Supply, Builders FirstSource and Lowes for your generous donation of materials.
PPP Flexibility Act
Payroll Tax Delay Eligibility
President Trump has signed into law the  Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act , which makes a number of positive changes to the Payroll Protection Program (PPP). Among these changes, business owners who take out a PPP loan and have that loan forgiven are now eligible to delay their payroll tax payments.

Under the  Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act , businesses are eligible to delay certain employer-paid payroll tax benefits. However, the CARES Act blocked businesses who have their PPP loan forgiven from availing themselves of this delay. With this prohibition now lifted, all businesses — regardless of PPP status — may take advantage of the payroll tax delay . READ MORE
