Loudoun County is offering grants to help businesses financially impacted by the renaming of several streets and roads in Loudoun County. The county’s Road Renaming Business Assistance Program is open to for-profit and nonprofit businesses with an address on a roadway being renamed at the direction of the Board of Supervisors following the Board's decision to inventory and review Confederate and segregationist symbols in the county.
