The Jumpstart Permit Reimbursement Fund

The Jumpstart Fund is a program that helps new Culver City small businesses by reimbursing up to $5,000 of City permit fees. The program will be launched in two phases with $25,000 in each phase. Phase 1 will launch in April 2026 and Phase 2 will launch in September 2026.

To be eligible for the Jumpstart Fund, small businesses must:
Operate a commercial, “brick and mortar” space within the boundaries of the City of Culver City
Received a Culver City business license
Businesses are required to be following all City and County regulations.

The City understands that permitting can vary depending on the business; therefore, businesses can participate up to 3 years after issuance of a Culver City business license.

The application process for Phase 1 will open on April 27, 2026 at 9 AM. An application will be made available on the City website. Submission requirements include an invoice of paid permit fees issued from the City for approved plans/work relative to Planning and Development Services, Engineering or Fire.

Once applications are received, applications will be vetted with the issuing department. All approved businesses will be required to submit a W-9 form to the City for reimbursement. The program will be conducted on a first-come, first served basis.

Definition of a small business: The City is in alignment with the classification of a small business according to the U.S. Small Business Administration, which includes:
Be a for-profit business of any legal structure
Be independently owned and operated
Not be nationally dominant in its field
Be physically located and operate in the U.S. or its territories

Adam Guttentag
The Culver City Chamber has been a great resource for us even before opening our business. When we ran into some challenges with the city, the Chamber was there to help us navigate the issue and find a good resolution. The Chamber has also been a tremendous resource throughout the Covid-19 Pandemic with regular updates on resources, assistance with the PPP process, updates and guidance on local health dept guidelines, etc. Most importantly, whenever I had a question, the Chamber has always been there with a quick response, making introductions to other local businesses or other resources to help with the answer. Definitely recommend as a great organization for local Culver City businesses.
Response from the owner:Hi Adam,

Thank you for your feedback and your positive review. It gives us great pride to uplift and empower businesses like yours. Thank you for being an invaluable member of our incredible Culver City Business Community. We are only a call away - whenever you need us.

Culver City Chamber is our voice and advocate for local government and businesses, together we make a difference.

The Chamber is an outstanding tool and resources for any business in or near Culver City. Not only does the Chamber provide a wide array of networking opportunities and chances to promote your business, but it is dedicated to advocating for business interests at the local, state and federal level. The Chamber also serves as a touchstone about what is happening throughout the community and how you and your company can get involved. This is a Chamber that is well worth the dues. Jon today – your business (and your bottom line) will thank you!
Response from the owner:We are humbled by your remarks, but do take pride in our work. Our work in advocacy, connection to the pulse of business, and relationships allow us to continue to deliver for our members. Great Board members like you help as well.
